The Innocence of a Dark Heart

Chapter .1

He was trapped, trapped within a metal cage the guards had assigned him. Yugi Muto a boy with black spiky hair that use to have purple tips that were now a blood red in colour. His blond bangs were also a blood red colour and had black around his eyes. The use to be innocent boy was now one with a dark power, the power of Anubis, The god of the afterlife. You see there were people in this world chosen by the gods to have a gift there chosen god would give them to protect the world from destruction but would also keep it with in balance at the same time. There was only one person to be appointed to each god and Yugi had managed to get Anubis. Yugi never realised he was a chosen one till his gift started to form when he was 11 scaring most of his friends in the process of understanding his given gift. But now Yugi was being dragged to the castle because someone had saw him using his special gift and feared for the boy's sanity.

The carriage came to a quick halt, almost sending the boy straight through the bars that kept him contained. He heard the guards approaching the cage with caution, afraid he would use his power against them. "Be careful Yagari, we have no idea what this kid is capable of" one of the guards said stepping into Yugi's view. "The Pharaoh said no harm must come to the boy, he wants to see what this kid can do" the man called Yagari replied to the man that was currently dragging Yugi out of his cage. The guard scoffed while shoving Yugi in front of him "Move it" he yelled while Yugi started to walk a slow but steady pace. They kept walking until they made their way to the massive archway that lead into the castle. Yugi took a deep breath not knowing what would happen when they entered the Pharaohs home.

"Quit stalling runt, and move it!. the Pharaoh has a busy schedule" Yagari said impatiently to the small boy, who still had not said a word through this whole endeavour. Yugi walked until he came to the throne room which held the Pharaoh, who sat high and proud upon his chair. "Ah I see you have brought the boy, Yami!, Atem! Come here quickly" thee pharaoh yelled at the top of his voice. It took Yugi all he had not to flinch at the sound. Two boys who looked a little bit older then himself walked out. They both looked identical except for their skin colour; one had the colour of caramel while the other had the colour of ivory. They both walked towards their father, one taking his position on the right while the other took the left.

"So boy you have a name" the king asked looking Yugi in the eye. Yugi nodded his head "Yugi sir, Yugi Muto is my name" the king smiled as the boy replied with no fear at all, a trait of a true warrior. "You don't fear me boy" the king asked with a smirk on his face "Why is that, everyone fears me, even if it is just a little bit" Yugi looked at the king standing up tall and straight, giving the king a wicked smile. "No my Pharaoh, the question is why should I fear you" the king was startled by the question and so was his two sons, no one had ever back chatted the king before little then use his own question against him. "You are a smart one Yugi Muto, but can also be your downfall, you do well to remember that won't you" Yugi nodded still smiling at the king "Now to why are you here, I've heard some interesting stories about you Yugi, some very interesting stories you care to explain yourself" the kind asked, Yugi could basically feel the curiosity riding off of him in waves. "I don't know what you are referring to your majesty" Yugi said trying desperately to get out of this castle and back to his home where he belonged. He couldn't tell them of his gift or the others would come, come for him and they would do anything, literally anything. "So Mr Vacrah was fearing his life because of nothing, Mr Muto" the king hissed walking over to Yugi grabbing his chin roughly, making the boy keep eye contact with the king. "Don't you DARE LIE TO ME BOY!" the king yelled but still the boy was unafraid of the king's pathetic way to terrify him. Yugi looked at the king dead in the eye and smirked before he laughed. The two sons were shocked and the king only became one with rage. The Pharaoh lifted his hand ready to slap the boy who made a mockery of him "You lay one finger on him and you will pay dear Pharaoh" the king turned "And who might you be"

"I'm Iris and the boy belongs to me"
