10 - destiny
                          
After several hours worth of training it seemed that Atem had gotten better at controlling and using magic that it seemed almost second nature to him. Even Pegasus seemed surprised at how natural magic was to Atem even though this was the first time that the teen had ever willingly used magic.
                          
"Well I have taught you all that I can actually teach you Yami-boy, the rest is up to you and Yugi-boy to discover on your own. Keep heading towards the mountains. There is a wise elderly mage named Dartz. He can teach you things that I can not. The journey up the mountains will not be an easy one as you and Yugi-boy will have to rely on each other. I am not certain how much longer your brother can keep his demonic influences under control. The demon within him is growing stronger and the demons that Zorc have transformed will keep coming after you both to prevent the prophecy from coming true. Seek out a demon named Merik, he can tell you more about the prophecy. He is one of the few demons that Zorc doesn't control." Pegasus stated as the two went back into Pegasus's house.
                          
Yugi was awaking up as he stretched out his body letting out a long yawn.
                          
"Yami-boy let me give you a change of clothes since the ones that you are wearing are completely ruined." replied Pegasus as he went up the stairs. Yugi trotted over to his brother tugging at his hand.
                          
*Atem what's going on? You feel different. A part of me is actually afraid.* Yugi stated mentally. Atem turned to his brother a little bit surprised by what he had said.
                          
"Pegasus was teaching me how to use some of my powers, this way I have a better understanding of what I am capable of." replied Atem.
                          
*So that explains what I am sensing. So what do we do know?* Yugi asked.
                          
"According to Pegasus we should continue heading towards the mountains. There we will find a demon named Merik who could tell us about the prophecy and an elder mage named Dartz who can teach us more about our powers." replied Atem just as Pegasus had come back with a change of clothes for Atem.
                          
"Hopefully some of these will fit. Sorry Yugi-boy but because of the shape and form of your body, none of the items that I have will work for you." stated Pegasus. Atem went through the clothes finding a white tee-shirt, a pair of blue jeans, and a black leather jacket. Atem then went into a separate room to change coming back after a couple of minutes changed as he held his original clothes in his arms which Pegasus took from him.
                          
"I shall take care of these you Yami-boy. Good luck you two and I hope that you find what you two are looking for." stated Pegasus.
                          
"Thanks for everything Pegasus. Come one Yugi let's get going." Atem stated as he and Yugi left Pegasus's place.
                          
"They are gone now Miss Ishizu. Was it a wise move for me not to tell them about their lineage or about the prophecy?" Pegasus asked as a woman stepped out of the shadows. It was the same woman that Shadi was speaking to after Atem had brought Yugi to his shop.
                          
"I am quite certain. I am positive that in some way that they will find the truth. It still troubles me, how did those demons learn that both Yugi and Atem had traveled here?" asked Ishizu.
                          
"You don't think that it's possible that Zorc is stepping up his plans?" Pegasus asked.
                          
"I am not certain Pegasus. All I know is that I can not allow Zorc to obtain the power that is possessed by those two. It is all ready bad enough that Zorc has partical control over the younger one." replied Ishizu.
                          
"Do you think they will succeed in completing the prophecy?" asked Pegasus.
                          
"Let me ask you this Pegasus, after teaching Atem how to use some of his power what do you believe?" Ishizu asked.
