Sorceress-Oh don't get all mushy on me
Chapter 11: Self Knowing
"Any ideas as where the others are in this death trap?" Jyou says looking over a hill but nothing but sand in each and every direction.
Ishizu comes up to him "Jyou, you shouldn't be so negative."
"It's true." He states nodding his head in agreement to him-self.
"Hai, but it's only that way because you are negative." Shadi comes up to them with a look of frustration.
Jyou looks at him blankly "Your starting to talk in circles."
Ishizu seems to be having a battle within her self before asking them "Which way are we going?"
Shadi looks up and off into the distance to a tiny speak of black "Since we have not had our tests, we will not be able to leave just yet."
"Tests?" Ishizu asks clearly surprised.
"We will have to pass tests." Shadi explains what Kari had told him when he first got here.
"What about him?" She asks finally understanding.
"I already passed." Jyou puffs out his chest clearly proud what he had done.
"He had one of the easy ones." Shadi replied with a hint of amusement in his tone.
Ishizu thinks for a moment then replying sarcastically "Hmmm, I would guess to civilization would be the best road."
"We are in the middle of nowhere!" Jyous says exaggeratedly.
"Look again." Ishizu smirks at the look on her face.
"What the--?" Jyou looks stunned unable to close his hanging mouth.
Shadi closes it with an audible 'click' "A town only the trained eye of a guardian can see, clever."
Ishizu blushes "I learned from Yugi."
"Yugi taught you how to see?" Shadi asks surprised since he didn't teach anyone how to do so and with Yugi no one to teach him.
"Yes, I never used to be able to let other people see." Ishizu says while walking down a steep dune.
Jyou comes up from behind her fast then slows down in step with her noticing something glinting around her neck "When did Yugi give that back to you?"
Ishizu smirks at him "When he thought I would need it I'm not sure what that meant though." Ishizu trying to recall that memory.
"Hai, he always was very selfless." Shadi says looking off into the distance.
"No kidding." Jyou says.
"You are lucky to have such a friend." Ishizu says looking over to him.
"I know Yug's one of a kind." Jyou says proudly.
Shadi nods in agreement "Indeed."
Jyou starts fanning himself "Look a cave."
Ishizu laughs softly "We need to get into the shade or we won't be able to go anywhere."
Jyou runs ahead and sits down in the shade with a sigh of relief "Much better." Jyou lays back and looks at the cave until he feels something shift "Is it me or is the ground starting to crumble?"
Ishizu looks down and gasps "It is."
Shadi looks down as well "Move!"
They try to get out in time but they don't have enough time and is sucked down a tunnel "Ahhhhhh!!!"
They stop falling after a few minutes landing on something soft so they get up and look for a way out Jyou looks up "Now will you look at that."
Ishizu does too "We won't be getting up there."
"Hai." Shadi looks around again.
"Hello?" A girl says walking up to them in a slightly strange attire.
"Who might you be?" Shadi asks with a look of mistrust.
"My name is Sahra." She bows and smiles brightly.
"And what are you doing down here?" Jyou says even more confused
"I am the speaker of Isis the goddess of magick and healing." She bows again but when she does so a lady appears with golden-wings connected to her arms.
"And what might you want?" Shadi asks even more mistrusting then before.
"A test if you will?" She smiles.
"Me, I presume?" Ishizu says walking up.
"You are correct." She steps out of her shoes.
"What must I do?" Ishizu asks while doing the same thing.
"We will have a little race of balance and agility." She says motioning towards a entrance when they enter they are surrounded by beams of ice floating in the air twirling going all the way up. "We will race to the top." She points upward.
"Do we have to as well?" Jyou says skeptical of going on beams of ice.
She laughs "No, of coarse not. You can walk up to the top if you like and we will meet you there."
"All right good luck Ishizu." Jyou says walking towards the stairs when they reach there they hear "Jyou watch where you are stepping the steps are made of ice." Then they hear "Relax, I know what I'm doing." slip *CRASH* "I told you."
Ishizu and Sahra turn back to each other and Sahra explains the rules "We will each use a card to help us."
She nods "Verry well."
Sahra grins wickidly "But be careful you don't want to slip after all molten lava is under it." She pulls out her deck "Now chose your cards mine will be Harpy Lady Girl,."
She nods and pulls hers out as well "I will chose All Seeing Goddess."
Sahra raises an eyebrow at the last one "Very wise of you." She turn back to the ice "Lets begin."
-------------------------------------
--Up Above--
Jyou looks down at them picking there cards "Why did they take their shoes off won't they freeze?"
"They are accustomed to it." He says simply.
They stay quiet a few minutes before Jyou tries to make a weak conversation as well "Why are we getting all these tests anyway?"
"To make sure we can still stay in the Pharaoh’s court." Shadi replies surprised he could sound so casual.
"What if the Pharoah loses?" Jyou asks.
"He won't I assure you. He's not the one being tested." He says looking back down.
------------------------------------------
--Down Below--
"Lets begin shall we have each one life at which we cross." She jumps on an ice beam and starts walking up quickly.
Ishizu follows behind slowly before getting the hang of it "Uhhh?"
"Careful it's slippery." She chuckles mockingly.
"Master what shall I do?" All Seeing Goddess asks coming up to her.
She hears a scream and looks up as the beam cracks in half "Ahhhh!!"
Ishizu looks on "Never knew the expert could slip."
She was caught by her card and sets her back down "Thank you Harpy Lady." She smirks up at the Ishizu "You can have your monsters do the falling for you."
Ishizu glares at her "All right then I see your game All Seeing Goddess?"
She comes up to her and closes her eyes and looks into up then speaks "The ice will break."
Ishizu looks up and down the ice "Where?"
"There." She points.
Ishizu gasps as she jumps while warning the other competition "Jump!!!" She slips and falls but catches her self on time she climbs up slowly but slips again to be caught by All Seeing Goddess . Sahra is far behind and uses Isis to gain her speed but slips suddenly and falls only to land on a piece of ice. Ishizu reaches the top but Sahra following closely behind.
They were out of breath but Sahra had the energy to speak "You learned the prospect of wisdom and seeing that really isn't there."
"What do you mean?" Ishizu asks clearly confused.
"Nothing, but as your prize the goddess Isis gives you one of the Egyptian Goddess cards Torey." She gives her a card with golden wings and the head of a lady.
Ishizu looks up but Sahra was gone "Where did she go?" she asks herself spinning around.
Jyou and Shadi arrive on the seen and look at the card Shadi shakes his head "It's best not to ask questions."
"Now I really want to see Yugi." Jyou says trying to find a way out.
"Don't we all?" Shadi asks with a look of irritation clearly sketched on his features.
'Thank you' Ishizu whispers to the wind as it reply with a ‘Your welcome’.
