Atem, Seth and Yami are the oldest gods and they are the most powerful ones as well and once they had defeated their father with the help of their siblings they divided power amongst themselves. Atem got the sky, Seth got the seas and Yami got the underworld. Atem took Anzu as his wife and Seth took Joey as his husband and Yami chose no one, preferring to live and rule his realm alone.
Yami is one of the members of the twelve of the council that ruled the earth and heavens. He preferred not to be on his throne on Mt. Otom, he came during the darkest days of the year and when called upon. Yami was an imposing figure even if he wasn't that tall. He is 5' 6" tall and had gravity defying hair that was in a star shape on the top crowned crimson and the rest of his hair was ebony except for a few lightening bolts that went through his hair and a few blond lock that framed his handsome face. He had narrow blood red eyes that lightened and darkened as his moods went. Regal high arching eyebrows and a mouth that perpetually had a smirk or a frown on it. His skin was pale and smooth and he would have been chased by many a god or goddess except for his station scared many away all except his brothers, and it suited him for he desired no one.
Atem looked almost exactly like yami except he was slightly taller and had a dark tan on his skin and usually a devious smirk or a smile pervaded his face. His eyes have a touch of amethyst in them as well. He was always chasing after some one or other to have in his bed even though he had a wife. She'd tried earlier to stop him, but soon realized that it was a lost cause and gave up and started to have lovers of her own.
Seth was among the tallest of the gods and he had cold sapphire eyes that borrowed into a person leaving them to feel vulnerable some most tried to avoid him. He never had a lover and is always faithful to Joey and the same with Joey to Seth. He would argue with Atem a lot and was constantly annoyed at Bakura for one reason or another.
Suguroku was a kindly god whom absolutely doted and cherished his son Yugi, whom is a very cheerful and innocent creature who's beauty made all the gods and goddesses and even some of the mortals chase after him. Suguroku knew this so he always kept Yugi close to him just in case some tried to take Yugi away from him. He was overprotective of Yugi and although he let Yugi talk and become friends with the minor gods and goddesses and even some of the more powerful ones he never ever left Yugi alone around Atem, Bakura and Yami. He knew that Yugi was quiet safe around Seth and Joey for both of them viewed Yugi only with the affection of a close friend or brother might and nothing more.
One day when Yugi was gleefully running and playing with his friends he accidentally ran into Yami.
"Oh! I'm so sorry Sir!" Said Yugi. He is well known for his polite nature to everyone. "I didn't see where I was going please, forgive me! What is you name? Mine is Yugi!"
" You are forgive Little One, and my name is Yami. It's a pleasure to meet you." Said Yami not really paying attention.
"If you don't mind my asking… why are you here?" said Yugi curiously looking up at him head cocked to one side blinking up cutely.
Yami looked down too reply and though 'Amazing! He looks like a smaller more innocent version of me! Oh those gorgeous amethyst eyes! I simply must get to know him better. What is this feeling I feel?'
"I am here to talk with my brothers and sisters about things that do not concern me and I am forced to listen to them bicker like children." Replied Yami to Yugi's question. ' I m going to spend more time here so that I can talk to you.'
"I hope everything goes well for you Yami!" Said Yugi giving him a big, beautiful, bright smile that shined like the candle in the dark.
It had been a long time since some one gave him a smile like that. And he was determined to get that smile more often. Yami sighed and went into the council chambers and sat on his black throne and daydreamed of being with Yugi, not listening to word that was said. Little did he know that his brothers had noticed the changed and they looked at each other and nodded once this meeting was over they would talk to their brother and ask him what was bothering him and see if they could help.
TIME PASSES TIME PASSES TIME PASSES TIME PASSES TIME PASSES!!!!!
" Yami what is that which bothers you? Seth and I noticed that you have not listened to word said in the meeting. We whish to help you with your problem." Said Atem.
Yami blinks in surprise and looks at his brother and says six words that he'd never think that he'd say, "I think that I'm in love."
Both Seth and Atem's eyes widen and gasp at the statement and it took them a while before they were able to form a sentence or a question. Atem finally managed one word "Who?"
Yami's eyes grew hazy and he looked very dream and said "Yugi"
"Yugi!" said Seth and Atem at the same time "When have you ever met him?"
"Just this morning, before the council meeting. He's so cheerful and friendly, his smile are so big and beautiful. I wish I could get to at least get to know him better." Replies Yami.
And after he said that he took his leave of his brothers and went off in search of finding Yugi. He searched for a half hour or so until he found him playing with a couple of the water nymphs. He smiled inwardly thinking 'I found you and now I get to be with you.'
