I need to get this out of my head before it drives me crazy again because of the stupid plot bunnies! God I don't get why they couldn't bother me while I was on winter break, but no, they choose to attack when classes have started back up for me! -dodges as another one flies over my head- but anyways, I will do my best to survive this while typing the story!

Whispers of the Enchanter

xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

Longing

The palace of their host was nothing compared to that of Atem's back in Egypt. While it looked grand and majestic on the outside, Yugi was surprised to see it was nearly in ruins on the inside, and scores of maids and servants were scrambling about in an effort to restore it to its former glory. Yusei explained that after the hundred year war was over, the previous King was overthrown and the palace stripped bare in order to raise money to help the citizens. The Enchanter had to give Yusei and his friends credit, going this far to ensure the people were able to live their lives no matter how scarce things were.

"This will be your room for the duration of your stay here," Yusei opened the door to one of the rooms on the eastern wing.

"You mean Mahad and I are sharing it?" a perplexed Yugi asked, entering to find it was in rather good condition.

"I can arrange for you to stay in separate rooms," Yusei offered.

Yugi quickly shook his head. "No. I want him close...I feel safer that way," he said with a slight smile.

Mahad gave a nod.

"I will come escort you when dinner is prepared," Jack said as he left with Yusei.

Immediately Yugi collapsed on the floor, letting out a big breath as his small body shook violently. Alarmed by this the head of security rushed over to support the trembling Enchanter, wondering what happened that could cause him to act like this.

"The land...it's screaming to me Mahad. It's begging for me to help it recover," Yugi whispered, gripping the man's robe tightly in his hand.

"The land?"

"The moment I set foot on the soil I could feel the earth scream for me to save it..."

A sudden flash of light blinded the two momentarily, revealing the ethereal figure of Black Luster Soldier standing in the room.

"Black Luster Soldier? What are you doing here?" the Enchanter got up to walk towards the spirit.

"I'm so relieved to see you've landed safely," Black Luster Soldier spoke, though it was Atem's voice that came out.

"Atem!" Yugi choked out, his heart aching to see the Pharaoh.

Black Luster Soldier remained stoic but Atem's voice had taken on a more affectionate approach. "I miss you too Yugi, and I cannot wait for you to return to my arms."

Yugi pressed both hands against his mouth.

"Mahad, protect Yugi while he is there. Isis has foreseen that someone will attempt to take him by force. You must do whatever it is in your power to prevent this," Atem warned, his Ka shifting to look at his Sacred Guardian.

"I will give my life to protect Yugi," Mahad swore, bowing his head low to the spirit.

"Good. I'm sorry Yugi but we will have to be apart for a while. If you ever want to speak to me, merely have Mahad contact me using Dark Magician. I will be there for you no matter how busy I am," Black Luster Soldier said.

"I know," Yugi's voice came out in a small whisper.

The two watched as Black Luster Soldier faded from view.

"What do you think of the Enchanter?" Yusei inquired of Crow, Luna and Leo.

The five friends were in a private room created specifically so they could meet in secrecy. Only they knew the access code to the room, which meant outsiders were not allowed in unless one of them gave permission to do so. It was the only way they could discuss their plans without fear of anyone overhearing what was going to happen.

"He's the real one. I've seen his powers," Crow confirmed.

"Yes! He helped Luna with her sea sickness," Leo added.

Luna gave a nod of her head.

"Then we are saved," Yusei sank into his chair, closing his eyes as a deep breath escaped his lips.

The other four knew an enormous weight had been lifted off their friend's shoulders. Ever since becoming King, Yusei always had to constantly prove himself to the Council members about being the rightful heir. Particularly to Rex Goodwin, one of the members who was opposed to having someone as young and inexperienced like Yusei on the throne, but was overruled by the other members.

"But I never thought Atem would willingly part with someone as powerful as the Enchanter," Jack mused from behind Yusei.

"Actually it was Heba himself who insisted on coming with us. Atem had no choice but to let him go," Crow said after swallowing a drink of water.

"Should we have extra security around his room just in case?" Akiza chimed in, fingers deftly working to fix Luna's hair.

Yusei shook his head. "No. It will alert others that we have someone of high importance in the palace. We'll take turns making sure no one gets close to him, and I have a feeling Mahad is more than enough to handle a few intruders if anything happens."

"Mahad...isn't he one of the Sacred Guardians?" the redhead inquired, staring off into space while tilting her head.

"Yes. He is the bearer of the Millennium Ring," Yusei answered.

"Yusei can we go eat? I'm hungry!" Leo suddenly interrupted.

All eyes fell upon the youngest Signer simultaneously, with Luna giggling at her brother's antics.

"Alright alright. Let's go eat. Someone escort Heba and Mahad down to the dining hall," Yusei couldn't help but chuckle.

"I'll go!" Luna volunteered, running out the door before anyone could stop her.

Yugi found dinner to be rather...lively for a kingdom who is teetering on the edge of destruction. He got to know Yusei, Akiza, and Jack a lot better. He was even more surprised when Crow broke the news about Yusei and Jack being a couple. Never would he have thought the two of them were actually in love. Then again, who was he to judge another's life? He was in the same situation as well, only Egypt was thriving and its citizens were happy.

"So how did you end up becoming Atem's lover?" Yusei asked right when Yugi was about to take a bite of pheasant.

A furious blush of crimson crept up on Yugi's face as he ducked his head.

"H-How did you know?" he squeaked.

"Crow."

Amethyst eyes shot daggers at a sheepish Crow who was rubbing his head and smiling apologetically in his direction.

"I don't want to talk about it," Yugi muttered in response.

"Awww, I wanted to hear a good story too!" Leo pouted from the far end of the table.

Yusei looked reproachfully at him. "Leo, you're too young to know about this," he chided.

Everyone laughed as Leo gave an embarrassed nod.

Mahad noticed Yugi wasn't eating much, having instead started to push his food around on the plate.

"Do you not like the food?" he quietly asked.

"My stomach hurts," admitted the Enchanter.

"You miss him?" the head of security realized.

Yugi dipped his head.

-In another distant kingdom-

A figure thrashed about violently on the bed, drenched in a cold sweat and muttering words out loud for everyone to hear. However there was only one person in the room with him. A male clad in emerald armor, holding the clammy hand of the figure, a concerned look written on his face. It pained him to see his young lover being used like this, used by that man. However he had no control over what happened in the affairs of where they live. How could he? Him and his brothers were sworn to defend their home as Knights, thus they answered to the call of their king.

Even if that king was an ambitious being who wanted to control the rest of the world.

"Timaeus! How is he?" a voice from behind called out.

The door to the room opened to reveal two more figures, one clad in sapphire armor, the other ruby, hurrying over to where their brother was.

"He's having another vision. This is the fourth one this day, and it only seems to be getting worse. I don't know how much more his body can take," Timaeus informed his siblings as they gathered around the thrashing figure.

"Heba. Heba open your eyes," Hermos gently whispered.

With a loud gasp Heba did open his eyes, sitting upright on the bed ramrod straight, throwing Hermos off balance.

"Well I wasn't expecting that to actually work," he mumbled as Critias helped him up.

"Heba! Are you alright?" Timaeus hugged his lover tightly.

"T-Timaeus?...ngh..." Heba clutched his head tightly in both hands.

"What did you dream of?"

Heba blinked a few times. "I...I saw him Timaeus...in my dream...covered in blood and crying for help..." he whispered in a horrified voice.

"Who? Who did you see?"

"My brother..."

To be continued...
