Egyptian Triangle

(A/N: Hey guys, I will tell you now that, although this fic in meant to be taking place in ancient Egypt, I do not completely follow the timeline, as some of the empires named in the story can also take place, earlier or later in real history. I will only use the name Anzu and not Téa. All other characters will have their English name).

Disclaimer: I don't own anything about Yu-Gi-Oh! I do own this story concept and the made-up characters like Lady Mene.

Please R&R!

Chapter 1:

The kidnapping

Anzu was sitting on the ground, looking at the ceiling. Wondering how everything could have ended up like this…

Anzu is a Persian Princess, a royal by birth. Though there was nothing royal about her appearance now. Dressed in a servants attire, covered in mud and dirt, she felt horrible. She was kidnapped, while she was on her way to the summer palace. The bandits and thieves attacked her guards, slaying them all, and took Anzu hostage.

Her personal chamberlain and best friend, Lady Mene, was also taken hostage. What the thieves didn't know, was that Anzu was well trained to defend herself. By the time they realized that fact, she had hurt so many of the thieves, that they sold her and Mene as slaves to an experienced slave trader.

The slave trader, Issay, was a very aggressive and dark person. He had a short temper and was not afraid to use a whip. He was well trained for battle. Anzu was very afraid of what he would do to the two girls he just bought. So far Anzu has gained two slaps to her face and is separated from Mene.

Anzu looked at her hands and the shackles and chains, which were holding her captive. If she could just get a hold of the key, or some small pin-like object, she could free herself and try to find Mene. Looking around, she tried to see her surroundings. The first thing she notated was, that she was chained up in a dark, cave-like room. Light was coming from the outside of the cave. There were no bars placed before the entrance of the so-called room. But with the heavy chains they had secured to the wall, the slave trader, probably thought that bars were not necessary.

Anzu stood up, and very carefully, she walked as far as her chains allowed it, to the entrance of her cell/room. Observing the hall-like corridor, Anzu discovered that there were more cave like cells/rooms like hers, and she came to the conclusion that, the whole cave is actually made of several caves joint together. However if it was made this way, or naturally formed, Anzu couldn't say. Carefully she went back to her place on the ground, where she previously was sitting, deep in thought. All that Anzu knew was that she needed to get out of here as soon as possible. However that chance was small and she knew it.

"AAAAAAHHH…..aaaaahh…", Anzu heard someone scream outside the room. 'Who could that be?' Anzu thought. It didn't sound like Mene, and that was a relieve for Anzu. Still she wondered what was happening in the other cell. Maybe she could find out…

Suddenly Anzu could see a young girl, maybe a few years younger than her, been dragged away by two of Issay's henchmen. The girl was unconscious and looked very disheveled, blood was streaming down her back and arms. Behind the three walked another man. The man was very bulky and ugly, with scars all over his body. The moment he passed by Anzu's cell, he looked at her with an evil smirk on his face.

"What did you do to her?" Anzu asked.

"Yeah, you would like to know?" the man told her. "This happens to people who defy us. The girl didn't do her tasks right, so we punished her. That should show her to respect her superiors and do what we tell her to."

"So, if we don't listen to you, you will beat us?" Anzu asked.

"We will do much more if we have to, or, want to. Virgins sell for a higher price, but if someone is foolish enough to keep defying us, we will have some fun first and settle for a lower price. Or… we will kill them, depends on the situation. So let that be a warning," said the man.

Horrified by the answers from the man, Anzu didn't dare to make a sound. The only thing she knew was that, if she wanted to escape, it would require some preparation, if she wanted any chance of success.

In the Persian Palace, King Alborz was pacing frantically next to his throne in the huge and beautifully decorated throne room, with a very worried expression on his face. "You are sure that Princess Anzu is kidnapped and that they are heading south-west?" he asked the guard who delivered the massage.

"Yes, your highness," the guard said, who was kneeling on the ground before the throne.

King Alborz had ordered to send guards to look for the Princess and for Lady Mene, Anzu's chamberlain. Without success. 'Maybe I should ask the pharaoh of Egypt to look out for them. It really looks like they are heading towards Egypt. Pharaoh Aknamkanon was, and still is, a good friend of mine and our children grew up together,' King Alborz thought. Thinking long and hard, King Alborz came to a decision.

Walking back to his throne, he sat down. "Send a message to Pharaoh Aknamkanon, and ask him if he will look out for Princess Anzu and Lady Mene," King Alborz ordered the guard.

"Yes, my king. Right away," the guard said, while he left the throne room. Leaving King Alborz to his thoughts.

'Anzu, my darling daughter, where are you?' the King thought…

Hey guys, so how did I do? I hope you liked it.
