Sigh. Here I am with another fic.
Bad pup: ANOTHER one? ô.ô
Jou-pup: Well, I'm suffering from a case of bad writers block. -_- I need something to help me write the next chapter of 'Silver ankh'. That and I always wonder what it would be like to write an Ancient Egypt fic.
I'm so busy now a days. -_- I was challenge to finish Final Fantasy 7 to 10 during the winter break. (in one month) I wonder why I accepted this challenge… must be the reckless girl in me…
On a good note: I'm trying to write a story that will surely have a sex scene, or two in it so I can be cure of my shyness. ^-^
Bad pup: …
Jou-pup: ^-^ Anyways, lets move on with the disclaimers…
Disclaimers: Jou-pup doesn't own Yu-gi-oh. I guess you already knew that, so enough said.

Egyptian Daze
Enter the Great Thief
The streets of Egypt were busy in this time of day. Merchants and slave traders were trying to sell their merchandise to the highest bitter. All in all, everything went as usual.
"Stop! Thief!"
Fat rich buyers, woman and children alike were rudely pushed out of the way. A flash of gold could be seeing in the mist of confusion followed closely by the big fat merchant who was yelling for him to stop. Gold flash again in the fray and reveals itself to be hair, the owner of said hair was a young paled skinned teen, roughly aged around 16 year old, his rumbled and torn state of clothing gave him the perfect look of a street urchin. The nimble teen dodged out of passer by's grip as chocolate brown eyes glanced at the man pursuing him. The teen cradled his bounty and gained speed leaving the crowd (and the merchant) behind. Having a cocky nature, the boy could help but gloat while running backwards.
"Your goods have been stolen by GTK. The Great Thief Katsuya !"
Laughing out loud, the pompous thief never saw the tall burly man step in front of him. The inevitable happened; Katsuya bumped into the man, dropping his loot as big strong arms restrained him. "What the… Hey! Let me go, you big…" Katsuya kicked about in vain and panicked when he saw the big fat merchant from earlier approach them. The pig merchant was sweating…well…like a pig, and Katsuya couldn't help but smirk at him: at least he gave the fat man a run for his money, maybe the merchant will drop dead form a heart attack or something.
"Good work Ali…you caught him." Huffed and puffed the tired pig man. The bastard burly man, Ali, sniggered. "I just had to run in front of him and intercept him. He was too busy running from you to notice me boss." The boss smirked, "Well, you're quite pretty for a street urchin." He griped Katsuya's skin and marvelled at it's paleness. Golden hair and pale skin was a really rare combination in this constantly sun bathed part of the globe. "I bet you'll be quite the slave, now won't you?"
Katsuya was more than disgusted at the man before him. "If you think you'll lay a hand on me, then that little run you just had must have pumped all of your fat into your brain! You fat pig!" With that, Katsuya spitted on the fat man's face.
"You bitch! I'll show you!" Just as the man pulled back his fist to hit the blond, Ali screamed in pain giving the blond the time to drop himself on the floor thus causing the boss to hit Ali's stomach instead of Katsuya's face. Ali doubled over with a 'ouf'. Katsuya looked behind Ali to see who he was waiting for. "Took you long enough. I thought you would never show up, Ruby!" The creature let out a shrill shriek in response. Hearing the noise, the fat merchant stared in disbelief at the creature. "It's…It's… a red eyes black dragon!" The merchant couldn't help but stutter at the sight of the rare ferocious dragon. Even in it's compact form that was as big as an alley cat, the dragon was a force to be reckoned with since the beast could still breath fire and bite with it's ferocious teeth.
Seeing that the merchant was almost wetting his pants, Katsuya quickly gathered the fallen stolen goods. Unable to hold it anymore, he couldn't help himself to still be cocky. "You better run and fast you pig, Ruby kind of likes the taste big round pigly man like you." He then laughed when the man fled for his life, leaving Ali unconscious. After giving the unconscious man a few kicks, he quickly left the scene red eyes perched on his shoulder.
-_-_- Night -_-_-
"The look on that bastard's face when he saw you was so hilarious!" Katsuya Jounouchi (or just Jou for his few friends) couldn't stop laughing while he tried to explain to his best friend Ruby just how he got caught by the merchant.
They were back at their hideout, which was actually Ruby's nest and Jou only modified it and build a little shack with wood and stones. The nest was situated on top of a tall old building where you could see a big portion of the city and admire the palace. Jou was currently lying in a bed of palm tree leaves that Ruby normally used to make her nest. The leaves were always fresh since Ruby always replaced them for both of them when the leaves dried up. The red eyes in question laid near him on the leaves growling her disagreement at Jou's cocky attitude. "Oh come on Rube, he was asking for that remark. And anyway, I told you I want to be the most renowned thief in all Egypt so they need to know the name of who stole their goods." He threw a small piece of stolen ham to the dragon who quickly swallowed it.
It had always been Jou's goal. To be renowned for something, to be either admired or feared by the people and also by the nobles and even the pharaoh! That, and he wanted to have adventures, see hidden treasures be rich and stuff… He decided that since he already was a thief in order to survive, he would be the greatest thief there was. He would be GTK(Great Thief Katsuya) the king of thieves! ^-^
While making his way to the main city, he discovered a cavern where rested a shadow monster: The red eyes black dragon named Ruby.
After quite the adventure, they became friends and were inseparable ever since.
Shadow monsters were creatures that came from the shadow realm, they possessed weird powers and usually hide in dungeons, tombs or caverns. Nobles domesticated them and used them in duels where sometimes your soul was sent to their realm as an offering. Owned shadow monsters possessed 3 forms.
There was their original form; the form in which they appear in duels or in the wild.
Their 'compact' form; smaller than their real form, they usually take this for to either stay close to their masters without being seen, or to hide.
And their 'shadow' form. In this form the monster is sent back to the shadow realm and waits for the next time they'll be summoned by their master. No one knows what they do there…
( A/N: Okay. Back to Jou's tale)
"You know Ruby," said Jou when realisation hit him. "I think we're done doing only petty thieveries. If we want to be renowned, we have to do something big. Something that even the Pharaoh and is council can't ignore." He sat up and looked at questioning red eyes, a mischievous expression on his face that made Ruby cringe in experience… Katsuya had a plan.
Call it a knowing experience…
Call it a premonition from the millennium tauk…
Hell you could even call it an hallucination from the weird thing she hate that Katsuya called cooking…
But Ruby had a feeling things would get wilder from now on…
-_-_-_- To be continued-_-_-_-_-
Good? Bad? Terribly sucked?
Tell me, I need to know. I always wondered what it would like to write an Ancient Egypt fic. ^-^ Almost every one does it.
Anyways! For once I will try to make the characters interact a little together and (maybe) my story won't suck so much. ^-^
Next chapter: See what is Jou's 'brilliant' plan!
Also, Katsuya meets a white haired stranger. Friend or foe?
