''([[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 202|Battle continues from previous episode]])''

==="''Burst Stream of Destruction''"===
* The [[Pharaoh Atem|Pharaoh]] just entered the battle and Summoned "[[Obelisk the Tormentor]]". However its attack is repelled by "[[Diabound|Diabound's]]" "'''''[[Burst Stream of Destruction]]'''''" ending the clash between the two monsters in a draw. They both return to the Pharaoh and [[Thief King Bakura]]'s respective [[DiaDhank]]s.
* At this point, Bakura climbs back on his horse and escapes the palace.
* Leaning over his palace's balcony to witness Bakura's escape, the Pharaoh notices an inverted pyramid sticking out of the sky. He is the only one who can see it however, and wonders if it has any relation with Bakura's ''Ultimate Shadow Game''.
* Back in the present, [[Seto Kaiba]] is examining the [[Millennium Eye]] [[Yami Bakura]] left him. Upon close inspection, he sees a vision of the events currently unfolding in the past: it's the scene on the Royal balcony with the Pharaoh and [[Priest Seto]]!
** Seto decides to get to the heart of this matter once and for all, and departs for Cairo on his Blue-Eyes jet.
* Meanwhile, [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] & his friends are still trying to find the door leading to the Pharaoh's past.

===<s>Dark Magician Girl</s> Mana Pops in for a Visit===
* Speaking with [[Aknadin]], [[Priest Seto]] reveals the Imperial army has been posted throughout the kingdom: Bakura will not be allowed to escape. He also suggests to find criminals harboring as much darkness as Bakura, in order to capture their Monsters in Stone Tablets and use them against Bakura in a massive Shadow Monster army. [[Aknadin]] thinks to himself that if Bakura is a survivor from the village of '''[[Kul Elna]]''', his anger and hatred must be immeasurable, which is what gives [[Diabound]] so much power (NOTE: in the original Japanese, [[Aknadin]] also warns Seto not to use one's hatred to create Shadow monsters, for it is immoral).
* Meanwhile, [[Isis]] is attempting to use her [[Millennium Necklace]] to foresee the future, but in vain. Ever since Bakura arrived, her vision of the future has been clouded (as if the kingdom were shrouded in a blanket of darkness).
* Pondering about his past on the balcony of his Royal palace, the [[Pharaoh Atem|Pharaoh]] is warned by [[Mahad]] it would not be wise to remain so exposed, especially after that day's events. They both retreat to the insides of the palace.
** They are "intercepted" by '''[[Mana]]''' (who strikes a very close resemblance to "[[Dark Magician Girl]]") a childhood friend of Mahad & the Pharaoh. It's revealed she and the Pharaoh studied magic together, before he became the ruler of Egypt.
* Meanwhile from a distance, [[Thief King Bakura]] is eyeing coming back into possession of the [[Millennium Items]]. He vows to get ahold of [[Mahad]]'s [[Millennium Ring]] first, for which he has a particular affection (understandably, as it was the property of present-day [[Ryo Bakura]]).

===Mahad's True Power: A Dark Future Lies Ahead...===
* [[Isis]] tries to use her [[Millennium Necklace]] to foresee the future again. This time it shows glimpses of what's yet to come, including a great evil awaiting [[Mahad]]. 
** Back in the Royal court, [[Mahad]] tells the Pharaoh that his team of sorcerers is getting ready to seal the tomb of [[Aknamkanon]] as they speak. He sets off to the tomb with his servants, carrying a giant Stone Tablet with him.
*** [[Mana]] wants to accompany her master, but [[Shimon Muran]] prevents her from leaving, saying it is too dangerous and she is only a student. Thinking to himself, he also reveals that once [[Mahad]]'s strength as a wizard was so great he had to seal part of it to prevent harm from being done. If he were to '''unleash his true power''', he would be more powerful than any of the [[The Sacred Guardians|Sacred Guardians]] in the Pharaoh's court.
*** As he is leaving, [[Mahad]] is confronted by [[Isis]] who tells him of her doubts concerning his future. Mahad tells her not to worry and that he would prefer not to know what she saw. As he departs, Isis does tell him however that in her vision, "''he does return''".
* As he leaves the city we share a vision of [[Mahad]]'s childhood, and how he once saved the Pharaoh's life by getting bit by a poisonous snake instead of him. The Pharaoh then sucked the poison out of Mahad's wound. He now swears to repay his favor to the Pharaoh and defeat Bakura.
** Instead of going to the Valley of Kings (where [[Aknamkanon]] is buried), [[Mahad]] goes to the Spellcaster's Training Sanctuary and calls upon the power of his [[Millennium Ring]] to unleash the ancient power he once concealed there. 
** [[Thief King Bakura]] enters the Sanctuary, and is separated from his faithful servants. He confronts [[Mahad]] alone.
