Ep.21: It's Not Too Late

Marik Pov


I was release from Hotaru's grip I pulled her in my arms as she trembled in my arms.


"Hotaru...You've been my friend since we've went on this trip to the finals. You always been lonely and wanted someone to be there for you and not be a shadow." I said as she closed her eyes and leaned against me,"Marik..." She whispered as my eyes widen slightly as I felt tears on torso. 


"Are you alright?" I asked her worried.


"I'm so sorry. I have been so lonely that now I have frighten everyone from being a monster that is inside of me." She quivered as she then disappeared leaving me shocked.


"Hotaru!" I exclaimed as I heard her voice around me.


"It's okay Marik...I am only going to sacrifice in this duel to enter the shadow realm." She said.


"No! Don't you friggin do it!" I protest as a bright red star shines that I notice which had to be Hotaru's.


'She sacrifice herself...It's all my fault." I went pale and felt wetness on my cheeks that I didn't know that I was crying.


Yami Pov


This may be my only chance to win this in the sake of our destiny. The good Marik switched places with the evil one that still looking gloomy after Hotaru had sacrifice herself. Maybe I can do something to make her life not fulfill into the darkness. Marik surrendered the duel that sent Yami Marik back to the shadow realm and as for Hotaru she was reborn as a child again. 


"Hotaru?" I bend down at her level who looks at me with her pretty purple orbs.


"Yes?" She asked.


"It's not too late for you to stay with Marik and his siblings. It's your choice." I said as she looked at me with a big smile and ran over to Ishizu, Odion, and Marik.


"We want to thank you for saving our brother Pharaoh. We've also want to assure that Hotaru will be treated in good hands with us." Ishizu said as I nodded.


"Bye everyone!" Hotaru waved goodbye to us and Marik smiles down at her before they got on the ship to go home.


Farewell Hotaru, have a safe trip with Ishtar family.
