The Key to Power
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Lilly: This is my first Yu Gi Oh fic, so please be gentle.
Yami Lilly: You better be nice, we both have tempers.
Lilly: Meet my muse and darker half, Yami Lilly.
Yami Lilly: Hello.
L: Ok YL time for you to do the disclaimer.
YL: Why me?
L: Cause I want you to do it. ^_^
YL: Fine I'll do it but you have to get someone else to do it next time.
L: K!
YL: Air head here doesn't own Yu Gi Oh, if she did she wouldn't be writing fan fics and we wouldn't have the smallest bedroom in the house.
L: *sigh* I do own a few other characters, they will arrive later I don't know when.
YL: Yeah cause she's unorganized.
L: *hits YL with a rolled up magazine* bad muse! *blushes*
YL: *_*
L: Ok on with the story!! Chapter one: Where am I?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Dark eyelashes parted and stormy grey eyes looked at their surroundings; a fire burned in a hearth and there were candles lit and placed in a few places around the room. She was lying on a bed, her hands and feet were chained; she tried to sit up but she couldn't. She fought the chains trying to free her self but after a few tries she gave up. The door to the room opened slowly and in walked in a young man with blond hair, lavender eyes and tan skin. Her heart was pounding in her chest, 'who was he?'
"Well I see you are awake." He said closing the door and walking up to the bed. He sat down next to her and ran his fingers through her purple curls. She flinched at his touch.
"Come now, I won't hurt you. Why do you look so frightened?" he said in a mocking tone.
"You would be frightened too if you didn't know where you were, and were chained to a bed."
"It's strange that you didn't ask me why you were here. Do you already know then?" His finger wrapped gently around a curl.
"Yes. You posses the millennium rod and you want me to lead you to the rest of the millennium items and bestow the power of the pharaoh to you." He smiled at her, his fingers still playing with her hair.
"But that's not all I want. If you read my mind like I know you can you'd know that." His fingers brushed against her cheek softly, her skin shivered at his touch and she took a sharp breath.
"I don't want to read your mind."
"Why not?"
"Because I don't want to."
"Are you afraid you might like it too much?"
"I don't read people's minds anymore; in fact I don't use any of my powers anymore." Malik smiled at her.
"I knew you were going to be difficult. I didn't expect you to lead me to the items right away, but I thought you might change your mind." His fingers began to run up one of her bare arms, her skin tingled where he touched her as goose bumps rose on her arms.
"I will only bestow the powers to the real pharaoh, if I ever do find him."
"Why haven't you gone and found your precious pharaoh yet then?" He asked with a sneer. He pulled his hands away from her skin.
"Because he is not ready yet."
"Well I am! I know the ancient scriptures! I speak the ancient tongue!"
"Knowing is not what it means to be pharaoh." She remained calm while he was getting upset. "I deem who will be pharaoh, the job was given to me 5 millennia ago, and I mean to carry it out and not make any mistakes."
"So making me pharaoh would be a mistake?" He asked angrily, his eyes flashing.
"I never said it would be a mistake. I simply said I wanted none."
"And what to you is making a mistake? Falling in love perhaps?" He asked with a sly smile.
"So I see you are familiar with my past. Yes falling in love was a mistake."
"But you said you wanted none, you slipped up." He grinned at the look she gave him. She was angry and ashamed and he saw it all on her face.
"I said I wanted none. But you don't always get what you want." He leaned in close to her, so close their noses were only an inch apart. She was fuming and it was all that she could do to keep herself from using her powers to free herself and tearing him to shreds for ever mentioning him.
"See, that's where you are wrong, I always get what I want." He then kissed her. "I'll leave you alone for the night and see how you are doing in the morning. Maybe by then you will have had a change of heart about using your powers." He laughed and then left the room leaving her alone with her thoughts.
"Why did he have to bring up my one mistake in 5 millennia? Why did he bring up Ben?" 'I can still remember Ben's smile. And the freckles on his cheeks, his blue eyes that you could get lost in and his sandy blond hair. He was young and he loved me, and I loved him. But fate wasn't kind and we were torn apart.' (YL: this is so corny. L: Shut up! *hits YL*)
~Memory from her pov~
I remember the day he left me, it was in April, 1870, we had gone for a drive, he had parked the buggy under a tree and he and I had gone for a walk along the lake, then all of a sudden he had gotten down on one knee and was asking me to marry him.
"Please Nakia you would make me the happiest man in the world." (AN: Nakia is Egyptian and it means pure and faithful.) And he looked at me with those eyes and that smile and all I wanted to do was say yes, but I couldn't. I then told him of my duty to the pharaoh,
"Ben, I have a duty to someone else that I must fulfill."
"You are in love with someone else?" His beautiful smiled faded.
"No Ben there is only you. But I." I knew I had to just tell him. "I'm not who you think I am, my past-."
"I don't care about your past I only care for you Nakia."
"Ben you are making this very hard for me to say, but I must tell you. I've lied to you about my age and where I come from."
"Are you younger?" I shook my head. "Older?"
"Almost 5000 years older." At that moment I felt all the warmth and love he had for me die, he now thought I was crazy I could read his thoughts, and I could feel how crushed he was. "I can never die Ben because I have a duty to my pharaoh, when he comes back I-."
"Don't say anymore Nakia, you don't have to tell me a lie just so you don't hurt my feelings." He let go of my hand and stood, "you may not love me but I love you." Were that last things he ever said to me, he then got back in his buggy and left me there. I was shocked; he had given up on us.
~end of memory~
Nakia began to cry, outside of her room Malik stood listening at the door when he heard her sobs he grinned and left.
