Summary: Touzoku-ou's family is murdered. Only three he is forced to live a life wandering the street, but wait fate has other plans for him as a sex slave? Atem's fate is to kill his father to protect the one he loves, the one he loves will be with his child.

A/N: Atem's father's name was changed in this chapter, because he is dead now. The name used is the name used at his death, or the name that might be used if his tomb was ever found. Next Chapter it will tell what happened to Atem and then what is going on to Touzoku. I made the year 2012 because that's an important year, the sun will come in alignment with the center of the galaxy. But, it is also the time that Yugi and the other's exist. So think of it as the present time.


The weeks that passed after the Pharaoh's death were difficult. Atem had to establish his role as a leader, while making arrangements for his father's burial, and taking care of his pregnant lover. It was hard to fight for a republic when it took all of Atem's strength and knowledge just to keep his throne.

So he began assigning duties to his Priests and his staff. He was never bad about it, in fact he was honored as a kind ruler, but it was still against what he had wanted his kingdom to look like. Also, in his attempt to keep everything in control, he would make what could be described as a fatal error. He assigned the task of burial arrangements to Haji and Fenyang.

He had no idea they had been part of an organization ran by his uncle, the High Priest Akhenaden. Touzoku who did was unaware of this assignment until it was too late.

Haji and Fenyang approached the new Pharaoh's lover as he left the throne room. Touzoku noticed this right away, but he was not afraid. He continued on his way to the Nile, it was a luxury for him to have such freedoms.

"Princess Touzoku," Haji mocked stepping in his path. May of the staff and servants mocked Touzoku's role as the Pharaoh's partner, often referring to him as a woman. "Pharaoh Atem has assigned us the task of his father's burial."

"We are nearly finished, except for one thing," Fenyang smiled. He could tell by the look in Touzoku's eye that he knew exactly what that one thing was. "So he mentioned it to you?"

"Atem will not allow this," Touzoku worried his bottom lip. He had a feeling that Atem would not be involved in this decision.

"The funeral for Pharaoh Akunumkaten already took place, so he would not need to know. Do you want to upset Ra by not listening to the Pharaoh's burial requests?" Haji grinned. He did not give Touzoku a chance to answer. Fenyang placed a hand over Touzoku's mouth and the two men dragged Touzoku away.

The freed slave was not surprised that the few guards and staff in the halls did not stop to help him. They either disliked his sudden climb to power, or they were used to such actions that they did not move to help.

Touzoku was taken to the Pharaoh's tomb, it was large and filled with anything the Pharaoh might need in the afterlife, which soon would include his sex slave. Touzoku struggled to get free but he did nothing that might threatened his child. He was really starting to show now, and there was no room for doubt, but he would not trust the fate of his unborn baby to these men.

"You should consider yourself lucky. Most people will end up in hell, but you get to go on with the Pharaoh," Fenyang encouraged. Touzoku could say nothing, but he thought that leaving Atem and dieing with Pharaoh Akunumkaten was hell.

The two members of the staff, threw Touzoku into the burial chambers of the former Pharaoh. They were quick to retreat. It left Touzoku to pray for Atem to find him. Soon his praying and sobs subsided and he summoned his monster to his side.

"Nengensatsu come," the monster came from the walls and knelt beside the former slave. "What can I do? How can I get out of this?"

"I think I can release you from this prison, but Touzoku, I have a strange feeling," Nengensatsu explained. He did not know what the feelings were, he was not a prophet or a god. He only knew what was truth in the universe.

"Nengensatsu, I will die in here if I do not escape. My child, Atem's will never be born. He killed his father to save us, I cannot die." Touzoku begged. Nengensatsu understood. He pointed Touzoku in the direction of his escape.

"Go ahead of me and warn Atem of what has happened." Nengensatsu could not disobey this order. He was gone as quickly as he came, and hopefully he was warning Atem just as quickly.

Touzoku had to crawl up a small shaft on his hands and knees in order to escape and reach the surface. It was dark out by the time he arrived at the surface, but he could tell that chaos had erupted. The moon was nearly full casting good light on Memphis, this was the key to the chaos. If the moon was not so bright the people of the town would not be outside.

The way people were running about and making a scene really set Touzoku in a panic of his own. He turned in the direction of the palace in ordered to flee. He only made a few yards from the Tomb when he ran into the solid former of another person. "Sorry."

"You will be," The man spoke. The voice more then the words stopped Touzoku's flight completely. He knew he would recognize the voice anywhere, and now it was proved. The High Priest Akhenaden stood in front of him. "Surprised?"

"I thought you were gone?" Touzoku was scared more then he was surprised, his encounters with this man was never good.

"My brother was afraid of magic. But I'll tell you a secret, I was not afraid of it like he. I yield magic and monsters too, Touzoku," High Priest Akhenaden grinned, "Atem was foolish not to finish me off with his own hands. I was able to escape, and because of he was such a fool I was able to hide until the moment was right to strike. This is the moment."

"What do you want? I will not betray Atem," Touzoku spoke bolder and clearer then he ever had before.

Akhenaden grin looked as evil as the man in the moon light, "I knew you would not. That's why I knew where to wait for you. But I don't want sex this time. You see what I want is much more. I want the power and majesty that my brother stole from me. I want to be Pharaoh."

"Atem will not step down to you," Touzoku warned. Although, he was not able to predict whether or not Atem would fall to his uncle's demands if he used Touzoku as bait.

"No, I did not think so either. But, with my knowledge in magic I have found a way that I can achieve the power I deserve. It's a spell. Touozku you are the key to it once again. It is only through you that the spell might be broken." Akhenaden was no fool, he knew that there was no such thing as an unbreakable spell. So he created a spell that could only break under conditions that he felt were impossible.

"Travel to 2012. One will remember, one will forget. Barren you will remain until true love's first kiss." Akhenaden spoke his spell. It made little sense to Touzoku who was not educated enough to understand crypt messages, but he would not forget the message.

Touzoku closed his eyes in a firm blink, and when he opened them, he saw the worst thing he could ever imagine. The sun was high in the sky, as it was no longer night, and racing towards him at speeds that could out do a cheetah was an object that he did not know the name. But, he knew that he could not wait for the object to race over him. He ran. He took off in another direction and ran.

He was able to escape the huge racing object, escaping into an alley. He continued running however, not believing that the object would not try to follow him. He continued running until his feet bleed, from the hard pavement under him, and he could hardly breath. He dropped to his knee and attempted to rest. He had no time to dwell on where he was, or what do to next. He just needed to recover.

After a few minutes he leaned back against the wall of a one-story building. He place a hand on top of his stomach. Then he let out a sob, his stomach was completely flat. Atem's baby was gone.
