Author's Note: This is my first fanfic ever so please feel free to review it would be nice to know if it's any good.
"MY PRINCE, I'VE MISSED YOU SOOO MUCH! WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG!?" yelled the girl happily as she tackled The Pharaoh with a hug.
Though slightly surprised, having regained his memories after passing through the gate of the Eye of Wadjet, he was used to her outbursts and enthusiasm. Putting one hand on her head and the other around her back he said softly to her "Yes Mana I've missed you too. I'm sorry for taking so long to return to you.".
"Mana you know that is not how one should treat their King. My King it is good to see you again. It has been a long time." said Mahad walking closer while rebuking Mana.
"It's quite alright Mahad. After coming from a world so different I'm just glad that some things never change."
"Did you have a difficult time getting here My King." asked Isis curious about the time he spent in the living world; while stepping closer to stand by Mahad.
"Did anyone cause you any harm." asked Seto as always, just like Mahad, he was very protective and loyal to him.
"The journey was quite difficult and fraught with danger, but it was also fun." said the King remembering his journey with his friends in the living world. Looking next to Seto he noticed a girl with white hair and blue-eyes standing beside Seto "And who are you?".
"Hello Pharoah. My name is Kisara I never had the honor of meeting you while we were alive." she said bowing with her left foot forward with her hand over her heart.
"Yes well met Kisara, and I apologize for not being able to meet you in world of the living." said the Pharaoh returning her greeting while remembering the first and last time he saw her as a corpse.
"Greetings My Pharoah." said Shada coming forward to stand with the group.
"HELLO MY KING IT IS GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN!" yelled Karim with great joy walking forward.
"Yes it's good to see all of you again. I have missed you my friends." said Atem feeling euphoric at their reunion.
Then they slightly surprised him by bowing and saying "We shall protect and serve you now and forever Oh Great Pharaoh.".
Slightly surprised by their show of loyalty Atem still smiling said "I appreciate that, but I doubt that will be necessary we are dead after all there shouldn't be anymore threats for us to face."
"One can only hope My King." responded Isis all of them looking slightly unnerved, however before he could ask her what she meant another spoke.
"Now Isis there is something much more entertaining to talk about than that." Mana said to Isis in a teasing tone changing the topic. Deciding not to push the issue Atem went along with it.
"Oh and what would that be?" asked Atem curious as to what Mana meant speaking in a tone similar to Mana's while everyone returned to standing.
"Wellll some of us became a bit more than friends over the last 3000 years." said Mana while looking between Mahad and Isis as well as Seto and Kisara.
Slightly shocked Atem looked at them and then asked "What do you mean Mana?"
"What she means is that Kisara and I have married." stated Seto never one to feel self-conscious or embarrassed about his choices, which resulted in Atem looking at them in astonishment.
"And Isis and I as well." Mahad said getting the same reaction from Atem as Seto though to a lesser degree. He always thought Mahad and Isis would end up together considering the time they spent together and how defensive Mahad was of Isis. Not to mention the fact that Mana would always come complaining to him wishing that Mahad and Isis would get together already.
Still surprised Atem said "Just when did this happen?" he said with a serious expression then with a large smile spreading across his face he went on to say "I can't believe I missed it! I only wished I could've been there to celebrate it with you all." then proceeding to give Mahad and Isis a hug he said "Congratulations on your union!". Turning to Seto he reached out his hand for him to shake it and said "Congratulations to you both as well."
Looking down at the hand offered to him he smiled and shook his cousin's, the pharaoh's, hand. "Thank you My King."
Smiling Mahad jokingly said "Well it has been 3000 years it would be strange for there to have been no changes wouldn't there."
As the pharaoh laughed with his deep voice Isis retorted "You say that now, but remember I had to make the first move otherwise we still would've been stuck to passing glances even to this day." resulting in Mahad with a light blush on his face and the others laughing quite humorously.
"That's true who knows how long it would've taken if she left it to Mahad. Unlike Seto who was so overjoyed when he saw Kisara he married her almost immediately after entering the afterlife. Of course they courted for a short time, but everyone knew it was going to happen." said Mana teasing them further.
After laughing once more Atem went to ask "And what of you Shada, Karim have you been married."
"Sadly no My King neither of us have seemed to have been able to find the right woman to marry even in the afterlife." said Karim slightly melancholic.
"I apologize, but I'm sure you will eventually. And I'm assuming that Mana has also married then." resulting in Mana getting a blush on her face.
"Well she hasn't married yet, but I recall her going around constantly asking everyone from us to the villagers and even trying to ask the Gods; 'When is the pharoah going to return? It's been so long already why hasn't he returned yet?'" said Karim in a mocking voice while the others started chuckling barely keeping in there laughter.
With a deep red setting in on her face Mana weakly retorted "Hey stop picking on me! He IS my childhood friend of course i'd miss him." that was when they lost it and everyone started laughing greatly. Save for Atem who could feel his cheeks reddening slightly as well.
Quickly changing the subject Atem said "By the way why aren't you calling me by name? Unless I'm mistaken we always dismissed the formalities and titles when we were alone, and I don't see anyone else here, but us."
Everyone stopped laughing then and decided the ground or their clothing was very interesting all of a sudden "I'm sorry it must be because I'm here." said Kisara bowing her head and looking crestfallen.
"I don't see why that matters after all you are married to Seto you are one of us now Kisara." said Atem slightly offended that his friends thought so little of him that he wouldn't accept her.
"See I told you it would be ok. I knew he would accept Kisara as a part of the group." confirmed Mana making Atem smile for the faith she had in him and how well she knew him.
"Of course we knew he wouldn't mind, but he is the pharaoh. There is an order to these things." responded Mahad also lightening Atem's heart and berating himself for doubting his friends.
"Is that true My King you truly wouldn't mind." said Kisara looking somewhere between hopeful and amazed while holding Seto's hand.
"Of course not why would I?" responded Atem with a smile.
"Thank you My Ki… I mean Atem." responded Seto with a smile looking extremely grateful for Atem accepting his beloved as one of them.
"I think it's time we went inside before we talk anymore. I have returned and I believe we must celebrate even more so considering I have missed two wondrous occasions that need to be celebrated anew." said Atem looking at each of them as he spoke. Everyone agreeing they all made there way inside to celebrate the Pharaoh's return and the marriages of his close friends.
Well that was the first chapter I hope you all enjoyed it. I can't promise how often I'm going to be able to update due to work and I'm also trying to beat all the games I own before all these new ones come out for 2018 so sorry about that, but I do plan on making quite a few chapters for this cause I do have a plan for a large story.
