The Queens Gambit: Snippet Collection

This snippet came pretty randomly to me, but I needed to write it. Hope you enjoy it! :D

Snippet 4: Ancient Egypt

She know her time on this earth was ending.

Yanara felt it in her old and fragile bones.

She should be thankful, that she lived through so much and reached this age.

70 years was not something that anybody reached in their land.

Yet, she wasn’t ready to go.

Why should she go?

In the world of the living, she was closer to her beloved death Atem, than she would be in the afterlife.

Even if it was a strange notion, it was true.

His soul was in the Millennium Puzzle for all eternity banded, he wouldn’t be there in the afterlife with all her other beloved people, her parents, her uncle, her Kisara, Isis, Mahad, and Mana.

Waiting for her.

Welcoming her.

It was the worst feeling.

Tired she rubbed her eyes.

Her second husband and cousin Seto and little, even if she wasn’t this anymore, Samira were the only one left of her family beside her children, grandchildren, and grand-grandchildren.

Yanara was so proud of her family, how she wished Atem had seen them!

But he never would.

It was so unfair.

“Yanara.”, she heard the whisper of her Ka.

Frowning she moved her eyes to the wall where she heard the voice coming from.

The winged Sphinx of Isis, her Ka, was only a shadow silhouette, but she would recognize her in any form.

Beside her…no this couldn’t be true…?

“Oh great Isis, my dearest goddess.”, she whispers roughly.

Indeed beside her Ka was the goddess she had always loved and prayed the most to. The goddess her Ka was bonded to. Making her one of Isis’s children here on earth.

“Are you here to take me to the death tribunal, my goddess?”, she asked sadly. “Has mine time come? I don’t want to leave this world knowing, HIS soul will stay here.”

Isis looked at her with the eyes of a mother who saw their child suffering.

“My dear Yanara, my dearest mortal child, I gave you part of me in form of your Ka, because I knew you would be something special. And indeed you were. You helped to make our beloved Egypt into a greater home for it’s people. You were a good queen and a good mother.”, Isis told her.

Yanara felt how a tear fall down her cheek.

“So you are here for me. It is time for me.”

The goddess came closer to her, the Winged Sphinx of Isis following her.

“Yanara, my child, do you so wish to be with HIM again?”

“More than anything in this world. I never loved someone, as I loved HIM.”, she answered desperately.

She felt how Isis wiped her tears away.

“Then listen to me my dearest mortal child. The evil HE defeated will be back one day. HE will need to face it again. If you really want to, then I will put your soul into your Millennium Item, as the price you will forget anything about yourself till HE will remember too. Do you understand me?”

The old queen nodded rabidly.

Yes, she would do it.

Anything for a second chance.

Anything to see him again.

In whatever form.

“Call for one of your daughters, give her your Millennium Item and make them swerve that they would protect it with their last breath and give this burden then to their daughter, and their daughter, till it is time for you to be again with your Pharaoh!”, demanded Isis from her.

It was not a difficult choice to decide which of her daughters would become the Keeper of her Millennium Fragment.

She called for her little Omorose-Hathor.

The last gift her beloved had giving her.

Who had never known her biological father.

Who was now a grown woman herself, awaiting the birth of her first grandchild.

Omorose-Hathor was like the mirror image of her father, the same beautiful violet eyes stared at her in shock, as she told her daughter what now would be the long-lasting duty of her side of the family.

Yanara knew her daughter would accept it.

That night one of the greatest queens of Egypt died.

She would be remembered as the wife of the Nameless Pharaoh and his successor Pharaoh Seto. The queen with the heart of a warrior and a soul of a goddess, who helped Egypt reach a new height of glory and prosperity.

And for Yanara self?

As she felt how her soul was banned into her Millennium Fragment, losing bits and bits of herself, she only had one last thought.

That she couldn’t wait to see her beloved again.

It was only a matter of time.

Can you tell I love Hamilton? If you don’t know what that is go and hear the songs! This musical is epic!

As you also read I decide to give Yanara/Afya an invented Ka which will be also a Duel Monsters card the Winged Sphinx of Isis. I didn’t find any card that was connected to Isis, or I’m just too stupid, so I made my own.

So do not steal, are we clear?

Also if you want to know the officially shipping name of Yanara/Afya and Atem/Yami it’s Infinityshipping, I just hope nobody else claimed it already. :D

About my fanfictions

Hello, my dear readers!

I’m sad that I have to make this announcement, but in my personal life, there will be some changes that will give me less time to work on my fanfictions.

So I decide, with a heavy heart, to put Isekai’d as Chloe on a Hiatus and concentrate on Kick the cat out of the bag.

When Kick the cat out of the bag is finished I will start on Isekai’d as Chloe again.

Just like a Magical Girl and A Hero’s Duty were already on sporadic updates, so they will go into hiatus too.

I can’t write for more than one fanfic now and hope you all understand and accept my decision.

I wish you all a wonderful day/night!

The Queens Gambit: Snippet Collection

Here comes the next snippet which would be the first scene of the first chapter of the fanfic I hope I write one day. Enjoy!

Snippet 2: Before Duelist Kingdom

On the day of her 15th birthday, Sehrazat Faizan woke up like any other school day.

More asleep than awake and with a groan.

She didn’t care that today was also her birthday, it was too earlier!

Why does school start this earlier? That was inhuman!

The dark blue-haired girl put her pillow over her head.

Any minute now Kihana would storm her room and drag her out of bed. She loved her best friend, but these were times when she wished Kihana and her family would live in their own house.

…Yeah, Sehrazat didn’t think that would stop Kihana either.

There!

She heard the familiar boom of her door open and she wanted to cry.

Today was her birthday, even a special one in her family, why couldn’t she stay at home and sleep?

Fuck, school!

“Rise and shine, your highness!”, sing-songend Kihana. She couldn’t be normal. Who was that happy, at this time?! “Today is your birthday, happy birthday my dear Sehra!”

Aww, at least this was cute.

It stopped being cute when Kihana gripped her blanket and left her in the cold morning air.

Sehrazat hissed like an angry cat and rolled herself into a ball.

Cold, way too cold!

Why were mornings so cold in Domino? How she missed the warm mornings in Lisabon!

Kihanan just tutted at her. The white-haired girl with the bluest eyes Sehrazat had ever seen was merciless. She gripped one of her arms and just let her fall to the floor!

“Hey, what was that for!”, Sehrazat shrieked offended.

The floor was even colder!

Kihana put her hands on her waist.

She was already wearing the Domino High School Uniform, her long white hair perfectly groomed into a ponytail, decent make-up which made her blue eye even more pop and her white porcelain skin glowing healthily.

“That’s the only way to wake you up, Sehrazat and you know it. We do this five times a week.”, reminds her Kihana.

Making a face Sehrazat stood up and has to control her worse not make an even worser face. She still reached only under Kihana’s breast.

Why was her best friend tall like a supermodel and she was small like a child?

They were now the same age, so unfair!

Only Sadiye, Kihana’s younger sister, was smaller than her! And that was because she really was a ten-year-old child.

Again, so unfair.

Pouting she followed Kihana to the dining room, where both their mom’s already were with little Sadiye eating breakfast.

Even if they all lived in Japan now, they still had a more wester-styled breakfast. With pancakes, cornflakes, bacon, and eggs, you name it.

That didn’t mean none of them had tasted the local cuisine.

For example, Sehrazat loved Ramen like she was Naruto from the same named Manga, but sometimes you needed a bit home.

They were all original from Egpyt, but Rahila, Kihana, and Sadiye’s mom, and her own mom Amira grow up in London, England.

Sehrazat’s Grandmother still lives there, like Kihana and Sadiye’s Grandparents.

Besides Rahila and Kihana, who were white-passing, all of them were black.

Sadiye was the first to note them.

“Happy Birthday, Sehra!”, shouted the ten-year-old, which gripped the attention of the two older women.

Her mother smiled and stand up from her sit. She opened her arms for her.

“Good morning, my little princess, and happy, happy birthday!”

Still tired Sehrazat let herself fall into her mother’s embrace. Ah, nothing to rise her spirits like her mama’s hugs! She was warm and smelled, like always after jasmine and sandalwood. Comforting and homey.

“Happy Birthday, your highness. Now you are finally 15.”, said Rahila to her and Sehrazat felt how her head was patted.

“Thanks aunty Rahila.”

They all sit down at the table and Amira signed wistfully.

“15 years already…I can’t believe time flew so fast. It was like yesterday you wear this tiny and I could pick up you whenever I wanted.”

“She still IS tiny!”, joked Sadiye and grinned at her.

Sehrazat looked at her angrily and bit into her pancake.

Kihana tutted her little sister, who shrugged her shoulder.

Sadly it was true.

Didn’t mean like Sehrazat liked to hear that.

“And you can still pick her up Amira.”, reminded Rahila.

Thanks, aunty!

Sehrazat bit harder into her pancake.

“You know what I mean.”, said Amira and then turned to her daughter. “Don’t forget, today IS a special birthday. Now you will be the Keeper.”

It took Sehrazat any amount of strength to not roll her eyes.

Ah, yes, she became now the Keeper of the mysterious Millennium Fragment which was in possession of her family since the times of the great pharaohs.

She never even saw that thing, because her mother keep it in a golden little box with Hieroglyphs written on it.

But nearly anyone treated it like it was something sacred.

Holy!

The dark blue-haired girl thought personally that it was too much. It was just some jewelry.

Yes, really older jewelry, but jewelry.

There was nothing special about it.

Or let’s say better she didn’t want to believe the stories her mother and grandmother told her.

They were just too crazy!

The Queens Gambit: Snippet Collection

After the little heartbreak I gave you with the last snippet I thought it would be nice to write out the scene when Atem/Yami and Yanara/Afya meet again in modern times as spirits of their respective Millenium Items. ^^

Enjoy this snippet for the Infinityship :D

Here is the base I used: https://www.deviantart.com/akatsukimaychan/art/Yami-Yugi-x-OC-Base-Request-for-iba2001-527054166

And here is what I made of it: https://www.deviantart.com/empressofthesun/art/Infinityshipping-932421020

Snippet 5: Duelist Kingdom

Afya had a small smile as she looked around the cabin.

Sehrazat, Kihana, and Sadiye were sleeping peacefully in one bed, while Maja and this new girl Anzu shared the other. Jounouchi and Honda had each taken one of the couches for themselves and were having a snoring contest it seems and little Yuugi was curled up in the armchair.

It looked like “her kids” and the new ones felt comfortable with each other. She was happy that they made friends fast.

Softly humming she stroked Sehrazat’s blue locks.

Maybe with their new allies, they would have even more of a chance not only to get Amira’s soul back, also little Yuugi’s grandfather’s soul and the price money Jounouchi needed for his little sister’s operation.

That’s when she felt how the air was humming with energy. With old ancient magic. The kind she used herself.

She closed her eyes, yet didn’t stop her humming.

The once queen of all Egypt had wondered when the spirit of the Millenium Puzzle would talk to her.

They both had sensed each other when Yuugi and Sehrazat first met.

“So you decide finally to show yourself?”, she couldn’t help but use a huffy tone. She had tried early to talk to him, but he had refused to answer her. How rude! “I wonder for a second if you would stay in the puzzle for all the journey.”

The spirit of the Millenium Puzzle or as he called himself Yami admitted he did feel a bit bad that he hadn’t talked to his follow spirit early. He was just so surprised to encounter another soul like him, that he needed to think for a while. It didn’t help that the presence of the spirit of the Millenium Fragment was so…so familiar to him, even if it didn’t make any sense!

He had needed time for himself.

Yami had his hands in his pant pockets and looked at how the female spirit seemed to check on the new friends of Yuugi and also Yuugi and his friends too.

She seemed like a mother, looking after her flesh and blood to make sure they were all right.

Something deep in him twisted painfully, and a feeling of bittersweetness washed over him.

He wonders why?

That’s when his fellow spirit turned to him, fixing him with a regal expression, fitting for a great queen and orange eyes so sharp, that he had a feeling she could look right through him.

She was really beautiful.

Her long dark blue hair reminds him of the night sky and her unique orange eyes were not from this world. She had more womanly curves than her young partner, yet he could make out the muscles she had.

This was someone who could fight physically with any man and he had a feeling she would end up victorious.

Meanwhile, Afya had similar thoughts running through her head.

Little Yuugi’s darker half, was taller than him, his hair a bit wilder, and his eyes the color of the most beautiful amethyst. His face was serious, sharper, but oh so handsome.

Like the gods had sculpted it.

If she were a young girl she would have probably swooned, but she was an ancient spirit, a queen nonetheless, she swooned because of no one!

Even if such a fine specimen was before her.

“I apologize.”, he addressed her with a sinful-sounding voice, which made her shiver lightly. Since Sehrazat awoke her soul from her deep slumber, no one had gotten such a reaction out of her. What was happening? “I should have talked to you before, but I admit. I was quite in shock meeting someone in the same situation I’m in.”

Afya put a hand on her hip, fully aware of how the other spirit seemed to check her shapely body up thanks to her movement as she had intended.

Was she flirting?

Yes.

She couldn’t resist.

“You mean trapped in a Millenium Item, bonded to a young teenager and with no memory?”, she nearly purred.

Yami balled the hands in his pockets into fists. Her honeyed voice got to him and was it his imagination or was the room filled with energy?

Sinful, erotic, energy.

Well, he wouldn’t complain.

You didn’t meet such a beautiful woman any day.

“So you are just like me, what is your name?”, he asked her, making his voice drop more, delightful in seeing her shiver a bit and batting her long eyelashes at him.

“Afya was the name my descendant gave me. You may call me so…?”

“Yami.”

“Yami.”, she repeated purring like a cat and now he had to control his shivers.

By Afya triumphed glint in her outwordly eyes, he failed miserably. Well, two could play this game.

He gave her a smirk, which clearly affected Afya, and asked: “Descendant? Do you mean the young girl who wears the Millenium Fragment? I thought you don’t remember anything.”

“Apparently I was once a powerful queen of Egpyt.”, she started to explain, playing with a lock of her hair. Yami got the desire to run his finger into these dark blue locks. “Before I died, my soul was put into my Millenium Item and one of my daughters became its keeper. For thousands of years, her bloodline kept it safe, till it was Sehrazat’s turn. When she put it on, my soul awoke and here I am now.”

“I slept for such as long too.”, Yami’s eyes wander over the sleeping Yugi, and a little smile forms. “When Yugi solved the puzzle, it was like a was reborn into this world. I know my roots lay in Egypt too. Probably all Millenium Items are from there.”

He heard how Afya hummed, then the other spirit walked closer to him. Now they stood before each other.

She cocked her head in a flirty fashion, showing him her long elegant throat, and reached with one hand out to him.

Afya rubbed his shoulder and then slide with her hand his arm up and down.

If he was a weaker man, he would have gulped and turned red, but he wasn’t so he raised an eyebrow at her and wrapped one lock of her hair around his finger.

It was really soft and smooth.

“I have a feeling you want to make a point, beautiful Afya.”, know he was the one purring and Afya felt her knees going weak.

She licked her lips and had to keep a winning smile from her face as she saw how Yami followed hungrily this motion with his eyes.

“Mmh, we both are from Egypt, I was a queen once and we both feel the connection that the Puzzle and Fragment have with each other.”

“If you are pointing out the obvious that I was the pharaoh to your queen, my dear, then you don’t need to waste your breath. I already suspected it, when you told me your story.”

Afya narrow her eyes at him and stopped rubbing his arm. She came really close to his face, their nose barely touching.

“Then why didn’t you say so before and play dumb?”, she hissed offended. Was he only playing with her? “We may have been married once, but I am no one’s plaything.”

“I didn’t think that and for making you feel this way I am sorry.”, he apologized sincerely and put a bit of hair behind her ear. “I admit, this is new and exciting. I thought we would keep on flirting. I greatly enjoyed our banter.”

Yami had to fight the smirk at her bashful expression.

His queen was tough, he felt it in his bones, yet she was with him like a freshly fallen-in-love girl.

Mmh, his queen…

He indeed liked the sound of it.

Before she could answer him, they both heard a sleepy voice calling for her. It was her young host and descendant…which meant she was also his? Did he and Afya have kids? He needed to ask her the next time they were alone.

“Gran-Gran? What are you doing?”

Seems like Sehrazat, that was her name if Yami remembered right,  couldn’t see him.

Afya gave him such a hot look, that he felt his knees go weak. That look promised more than delightful banter…he couldn’t wait.

“Nothing, child of mine. Do you want me to sing you a lullaby to fall back asleep?”, Afya asked her.

Something like a yes came from Sehrazat. Afya squeeze his hand, till she walked and sat then down beside her hikari, to sing her to sleep.

Yami decides to go back into his puzzle.

He wouldn’t disturb the two ladies with his presence.

Also, he had a lot to think about.

Other than when they were alive and know they had to marry, Yami and Afya seem to like each other already really much. XD

I want to point out that this two have a lot of sexual tension right now.

They aren’t in love with each other yet, they lust for each other.

Love needs time to grow and we already have love at first sight with the Dandelionshipping, Yuugi, and Sehrazat, so I decide the second time they fall in love would be a bit more…erotic. ;)

I hope you enjoyed this snippet!

Also to remind you:

Infinityshipping: Yami/Atem and Afya/Yanara

Dandelionshipping: Yuugi Muto and Sehrazat Faizan.

I just hope nobody else has claimed these names :D

The Millennium Fragment

I can't believe I'm actually doing it, but since I was a little girl I was a fan of YGO! and I caved finally. This is my own created Millennium Item, the Fragment, only the queen could wear it. This means Atem mother and his wife wore it. Yes in my fanfic I'm working on since years Atem was married and even had children!

I will tell you it's power. The fragment is basically a shield. It creates a barrier of light which protects it's wearer from bodily and mindly harm. For example, if someone attackes the wearer aka. the queen the shield actives automatic and protecs her. But for example Pegasus with his eye can't only not read the mind of the wearer if he activ puts the mind barrier up. This takes some pratics. Since it belongend only to the queens it second power is that it can create a chanel to the puzzel. Wearer of this two items can talk telepathy witch each other and even visit each other spirit chambers. But the chanel only forms if both parties trust each other and let the other in.

What do you mean? Do you like it?

I choose the teardrop form since we all know how the Items were created, it's actually a blooddrop. Nothing more to say.

In the next day's a will upload some characters. The FanFic itself only exist in my mind currently and I change it always. Only a few things are secure. Also I suck at Duel Monster and wouldn't even now how to write an origanel Duel.

The only things I will ever post are probaly going to be snippets. But better then nothing. Like a said since a was a little girl this story is with me and I want to share it finally.

Also I draw this myself in paint, please don't steal the idea and the design.

Have a nice day/night you all!
