Seto: (to yami) What do you think she's smiling about?

Yami:She said something about a fanfic earlier.

Seto: (to himself) Hope its not about our show this time

Me:*clears throat* Now that you guys are all here. ITS FANFIC TIME!

Yami: You'll never take me alive!*runs away*

Seto:No! I will never join in one of your romance fanfics. Never!*Screams as he is being dragged off for costume*

Me: This is a fanfic of my two favorites in Yu-gi-oh. But I'm just going to center it mostly around Seto since I don't know where Yami is. ...Yami...you can run but you can't hide.

THE BEGINNING

High Priest Seto rised just as the sun beamed down through the window. He streched out of his magnificent bed and sat up. Two servants were already there wtih his clothes for the day. They waited patiently for his signal. Seto rose from the bed and clapped his hands sharply. Immediatly, the servants rushed over to him and dressed him for the important day ahead.

After they were finished, they bowed and left the room. Seto walked over to a table of parchments and looked over what was written. Normally he would go straight to work, being the High Priest of Remeses, he must always look at the documents before he gave them to King Yami to be signed. But today, it was diffrent. He couldn't concentrate. He walked over to the balcony and looked out of the grand fields of grain and food. Herds of cattle were being cared by happy citizens. He almost laughed as he saw a little boy being kicked by a girl becaues of an argument of some kind.

Remeses was one of the most plentiful cities in all of egypt. One of the nearest city to the great Pharoah of egypt, it also managed to be one of the main centers of trade. The citizens were kept happy. Crimes were minimal. Everything seemed perfect in this city. King Yami had proven a great ruler with Seto as an advisor.

Seto heard his chamber door being opened. He quickly turned around, ready to scream at anyone who would dare intrude. Instead, he felt relief when he saw his brother, Mokuba, enter.

"Good Morning, big brother," said the boy timidly. "Its' time for breakfast. Are you coming or not?"

Seto looked wearily and shook his head. "Sorry, but I have some work to do here." Mokuba's face fell. Seto couldn't stand seeing his brother unhappy. "Why don't we just go for a swim in the afternoon though? I think I'll finish by then."

Instantly, Mokuba smiled and nodded."Okay. I'll save you some breakfast just in case you're hungry then." He said goodbye and went to the dining hall.

He thought about how far he had gotten to be the High Priest. First his parents died, making Mokuba the only family he had. They were then adopted by a wealthy general desperate to have an heir to his fortune but never married. The general died and left Seto his fortune. When Yami had been informed of Seto's brilliant economic stategies, he had asked Seto to demonstrate some plans. Yami promoted him right away when he saw them.. In less then 10 years, he came from being an penniless orphan into a High Priest and Cheif Advisor to the King of Remeses.

Seto mentally kicked himself. "Snap out of it," he mumbled," before you get fired." He shook his head a little and went back to his desk. Looking at the parchment labled"Things to do", it wasn't going to be the a busy day. The only big thing was to attend a great ceremony tonight to meet the Great Pharoah's daughter, Celeste.

The Pharoah was most likely pleased with the success of Remeses and wanted his daughter to meet the ruler. Maybe even arranging a marridge between the two. He checked the guest list for the people who mattered:

Bakura-ruler of Phavilion, Queen Tea- Future ruler of Aeaos, Malik and Isis- Powerful socerers, Shandi- The great prophet, Major Joey and his wife Mai, General Tristan and his wife Serenity.

Seto was pleased with the guest list. Bakura, ruler of Phavilion, was a harsh ruler but his city was prosperous. Queen Tea, the heir to the thrown of Aeaos, was once rumoured to have a relationship with Yami. Malik and his sister,Isis, are the most powerful socerers in the land. Shandi also has a little magic background and a great acquiantence with the Pharoah. Major Joey had very recently married a mysterious beautiful women name Mai. General Tristan had married Joey's sister, Serenity.

Marridge. Something he had been thinking often for the past couple of months. He is now of age to chose a wife to bear his children with. Many women in the city had been hoping to be the one he choses. Only, he isn't really sure he wanted to get married. None of the women cared about who he is, but only what he was. Marrying anyone with his level of respect would garentee an easy life. He had tried many times to look for any girl fitting his standards but have so far failed."Oh well," he thought," Mokuba could always keep the family name alive."

He looked over the other parchments and saw that it was nothing but fights over property rights. It wouldn't take him long to finish, a couple of hours max. He sat down on a chair and began working. After an hour and half, he was done. He layed back his head and checked over his work.

His stomach growled. He suddenly remembered that he didn't eaten breakfast yet and stood up. He took up his head dress lying on a nearby stand. With a swish of his robes, he was out of the door. Servants who were passing by his room bowed low and didn't stand up until he was out of sight. His sandals clicking on the polished tiles of the floor with his every step. When he reached the door to the dining hall, he grabbed a passing servant by the wrist. "Tell the chief to bring food to the table," he ordered and let her go. The servant bowed and went to the kitchens.

Seto went through the wooden doors and was greeted by a long carved out table reaching from end to end of a grand room. He quickly took a seat and looked through one of the windows. He saw the magnificent garden and the sky was clear with no clouds in sight. He turned around and saw three girls holding platters of various foods. They each set down their plates, bowed, and stood aside for anymore of his commands.

He reached for a pear and ate half of it. "Where is Mokuba?" he asked to the girls. The first girl answered ,"Your brother is curently outside playing with the some other children."

He ate the rest of his pear."You may go back to your work now," said Seto and the girls hurried away. He ate a little bit more but didn't feel like eating that much. He yawned and streched out his arms. He stood up and walked around the palace. Everything was all ready in order and nothing needed to be done. He decided to go to the river early to erase his boredom away.

He went back into his room and took out some clothes less expensive than the ones he already had on. Careful not to rip the delicate fabric, he took off his garments and head dress than changed into the dulller ones. He looked in the mirror to check his appearance. This wasn't the first time he did this, pretending to be an ordinary citizen. Even though he was well known, his head dress was more recognizable than he was. Satisfied, he quickly went to the nearest door and walked out of the royal grounds.

Seto went through the bustling streets where traders were selling their wares. He turned down a couple of alleys and saw that the crowd was thinning the further he went. He finally reached the magnificent River. Already, children and the mothers already were swimming in it. He went down the banks until he reached the part where the river was covered by sand dunes. He knelt down and felt the water. Perfect. Seto looked from side to side to make sure no one was watching. He took off his upper portion of the robes and desceinded into the water. He felt his body relax as the water washed the skin as it slidded past him.

He closed his eyes. He felt someone watching him. He knows someone is watching him. He had had a little magic background from his fathre's side and had recieve some abilities from him. "Mokuba." he thought and smirked. Mokuba must be trying to surprise him. Still closing his eyes, he began to follow where the eyes were coming from. It was somewhere to the north of him. He smiled and felt the body move closer. Seto sudddenly jumped up and dragged the person into the water with him. Seto closed his eyes and started laughing. " You're too predictable, Mokuba."

When he opened his eyes, he stopped laughing. It wasn't Mokuba. It was a girl.
