This chapter will have a happy ending for our boys, so please keep on reading! Also, there is no sequel to this. So sorry for those who wanted one, but I won't be able to make one due to my busy schedule. I hope you all like this last chapter!

A loud yawn escaped from Joey's mouth as he continued his stroll at the park. It's close to evening time, and he figured a walk at his favorite park could help clear his head. A week had passed ever since he and his friends had graduated, and everyone is focusing on their dreams. Tea got accepted into dancing school in New York, and she was able to secure an apartment there before leaving for America. Then, Hanasaki got a scholarship to his dream university in America, and planned to leave next week to tour it.

A snort escaped from his mouth when he remembered Tristan couldn't stop crying over Miho choosing to go to a fashion school in Tokyo. First he wanted to woo her, and then his sister, and now back to Miho? This is why he does not trust any male near his baby sister. Since Miho is going through some places to live in Tokyo, Tristan will be working at his old man's factory while Duke continued to run the café with his dad.

Joey was able to land a job at a famous restaurant, and the chef persuaded him to take some classes at a community college so he'll learn everything he needed to know on becoming a professional chef or owning a restaurant. Thanks to the money he saved from working odd jobs, he was able to take those classes. Plus, he already lived in a different apartment after moving out from his old one. No more living with a drunken father who likes his beer more than his own son.

As for his friends, Yugi is still helping out at the game shop with grandpa while also creating a fun game for them to play. Ryou and Malik decided to study at a university here in Domino City while rooming together at Ryou's apartment, mostly to save money since living in the dorms are expensive. The reason Malik chose to move in at Ryou's place is due to the fact he's traumatized after learning Ishizu and Odion got engaged to one another.

"Mostly to avoid seeing them going in heat like rabbits," Joey snickered. "Its obvious his siblings secretly had feelings for each other for a very long time."

Shaking his head at the thought, he continued his stroll until he heard a loud scream. Looking over, his eyes widened at seeing a little kid getting cornered against the tree by a huge, ferocious dog. The dog wouldn't stop snarling at him, while baring his huge fangs at the kid.

Seeing that the dog is gonna attack the kid, he sprinted over and tackled the dog to the ground, pinning its head to the ground while preventing himself from getting bitten. The dog barked and snarled loudly while trying to squirm out of his grip, snapping his jaws at Joey.

"Don't even think about it, you lousy beast!" Joey tightened his grip on the dog and hit a pressure point on the dog's neck. "Now sleep!"

Then, the dog started to calm down and hit its head against the ground motionless. He heard a snore coming from the dog, indicating it was sleeping. A huge sigh of relief escaped his lips, as he quietly and slowly got off the dog and turned his head to look at the kid. "You okay, kid? That dog didn't bite you or anything, did it?"

As Joey took a good look at him, his eyes widened in shock. To him, the little kid resembled Mokuba, except his skin is a fair color and he wore a striped sweater with a yellow vest over it, blue pants, and blue sneakers. His black hair is longer, reaching past his back. He even noticed a card hanging around his neck like a necklace.

The little boy stopped trembling, and slowly nodded. "Y-Yeah. T-Thanks for saving me from that dog. I-It just came out of nowhere!"

"It's a good thing I heard you scream. You either had something that smelled like food to that beast, or might've crossed paths with it by accident."

The kid paled. "Now I really hate big dogs."

"Only the scary bad ones you gotta watch out for." Joey looked around. "Are you here with anyone? Or did you come here by yourself?"

"A-Actually, I came with my big brother."

"Your big brother? Did you got separated by him?"

"Well-

"Mokuba!"

He turned his head and quickly ran over to the person. "Seto!"

Joey turned around and silently gasped. The boy known as Mokuba is hugging a tall man who resembled Seth. However, there were differences between them. The tall man had fair skin, a black sweater with a white trench coat over it, black pants, black shoes, and a card necklace hanging around his neck.

"Mokuba, I told you not to wander around by yourself! You were supposed to stay with Roland!"

"I'm sorry, big brother. You were taking forever in your meeting that I wanted to come here and sit at the bench. It was only for a short amount of time!"

"It doesn't matter. We will discuss about this at home."

"Yes, big brother."

Joey spun around and decided to leave. This was a private brotherly moment, and its best he doesn't disturb them. He took a step forward, but a loud voice stopped him.

"Wait!"

He spun back around, noticing it was the little kid known as Mokuba who called out to him. "I didn't get the chance to ask for your name!"

Seto raised his eyebrow, while frowning. "Mokuba, who is this?"

"He's the one who saved me from that rabid dog!" Mokuba pointed to the sleeping dog on the grass. "He was able to make that dog go to sleep, and saved me from getting bitten! That man saved me!"

"Really?" Seto studied Joey, scanning him from head to toe. "He looks like a mutt to me."

Joey flinched, but then snarled. "What did you say to me, you bastard!?"

"I said you look like a mutt. You're also growling like one."

"I'm no mutt! I have a name, you know! And it's Joey!"

"Joey, huh? A fitting name for a dog like you."

"At least I don't look like an angry tree stump!"

"Are you implying I'm an angry tree stump?"

"That and you're a beast! Even more rabid than that crazy dog!"

"It is nice to meet you, Joey!" Mokuba cut them off and waved at him. "Again, thank you for saving me from that dog!"

A small smile appeared on Joey's face. "Don't mention it, kid. For now, just stick with your older brother and that rabid dog won't go near you again."

"I promise!" Mokuba grinned.

Before he could leave, he felt someone grabbing his arm. He glanced over and glared at the person holding his arm. "Don't even think about insulting me with dog names!"

A smirk grew on Seto's lips, as he gazed into Joey's brown eyes. "It's been a while since someone had stood up to me. You said your name is Joey, correct?"

"What's it to ya?" Joey retorted.

"As a thank you for saving my younger brother from danger, how would you like to have dinner with me?"

"Sorry, but you're a stranger to me. I'm following the stranger danger rule."

Seto arched his eyebrow. "Do you not recognize me?"

"I only see a stranger who is protective of his younger brother."

Seto studied his expression, realizing he was serious. "Have you heard of Kaiba Corporation?"

Joey racked his brain on the name, and remembered reading about it from a magazine. "I know they're a new company who is business partners with Industrial Illusions. I think Pegasus is friends with the owner."

"Do you know who that owner is?"

"I don't think so. Why are you asking me that?"

Seto widened his smirk. "What if I told you I'm the owner of Kaiba Corporation?"

"…Huh?..."

"Allow me to introduce myself. I am Seto Kaiba, the owner and CEO of Kaiba Corporation."

"And I'm Mokuba Kaiba, Seto's younger brother and co-owner of Kaiba Corporation!" Mokuba piped up.

"To thank you for saving my brother, we would like to invite you over to our mansion for dinner. Anything you like, the chefs will prepare it just for you."

"You'll love the food, Joey! Our chefs make the tastiest food in the world!"

"It's a one in a lifetime opportunity, mutt. We would never invite someone into our home unless there is a reason."

"So please say yes! We'd be happy to have you over for dinner!"

Joey saw truth in their eyes, and felt his face heating up at the puppy dog look Mokuba is giving him. Free food does sound tempting, and they did mention their chefs make the tastiest food in the world. Whatever he wants, they'll make it for him. However, seeing them would remind Joey of Seth and his younger brother Mokuba. Though he could tell the personalities of both Seto and Seth are different.

Letting his brain decide the pros and cons, he stared at Seto. "You're actually okay with someone like me being in your mansion?"

Seto nodded. "Like I said before, you saved my little brother and did not ask for anything in return. Usually people would try to put my younger brother in danger just to get money out of me. However, you've never heard of us, and didn't care about how famous we are. You interest us."

"So will you please come over for dinner at our home?" Mokuba pleaded.

Seeing the pleading look on his face, Joey sighed and nodded. "Okay. I'll accept your offer." This caused Mokuba to cheer, while Seto's smirk widened. "But tell your older brother to stop calling me mutt! My name is Joey, not mutt!"

"Then would you like to be called puppy instead?"

"I said my real name! No dog jokes!"

"I'll make sure he's on his best behavior!" Mokuba replied. "Now lets go to the limo!"

"You run along and wait there with Roland, Mokuba. I'd like to speak with the puppy for 5 minutes."

"Okay, but be quick!" Mokuba ran off while waving at them.

Confused on why he did that, Joey turned his head to question Seto, only to gasp as he felt warm lips pressed against his own. A tongue slid into his mouth, tasting him as Seto's mouth moved against his own. The memory of getting kissed by Seth caused Joey to moan, as he closed his eyes and clutched onto his shirt as tears formed in his eyes.

The taste of honey and fruit is just like Seth's kiss, and it caused his body to shiver in delight. Arms wrapped tightly around his waist, holding him close as they both continued to make out. Soon, they parted as Joey panted heavily. His face felt hot, and he could feel his entire body on fire. Why did Seto kiss him? And why must he kiss him the same way Seth kissed him?

"I missed you so much, puppy~" Seto purred. "I finally found you after so long~"

"W-What are you talking about?" Joey asked in disbelief. "T-This is the first time I'm meeting you."

"Tell me~ Do you still think bananas are evil in this era, and that I must fear them?~"

Joey froze, as the memory of him pointing his banana at Seth appeared in his head. "H-How did you know that?"

Seto cradled his cheek, stroking it with his thumb. "Its me, puppy~ Your Seth~"

"S-Seth!?" Joey gasped. "T-The same Seth who made me become his and Mokuba's servant back at ancient Egypt!?"

"The same one, and my little brother and I have finally found you~ This time, we're not losing you again~"

Joey gazed into his sapphire eyes, seeing nothing but truth and love for him. Realizing what he said is real; tears welled up in his eyes as he hugged him tight and sobbed. He couldn't believe it. His Seth came back to him. He was reborn again in the future, and Mokuba is with him. It's actually possible for them to be together this time.

Seto held him, rubbing his back while shushing him. "I missed holding you in my arms, my Joey. I'm never losing you again. Nothing will ever tear us apart."

"I-I can't believe you're here!" Joey sobbed while clutching onto his top. "Y-You were reincarnated here in the future!"

"The Gods made sure it happened. We would never be happy until we reunite with our lovers."

"D-Does this mean the pharaoh and the other 3 are also reborn?"

"That's right. Right now, they're searching for your friends."

"H-How did you get your memories of us back? Don't you usually get new memories after you get reincarnated?"

"Our memories were unlocked when we reached the age of 16. We were all still in school, so we had to finish our education first and then be able to find you all. Luckily, the 4 of you lived here in the same city so it wasn't too hard to find your addresses. Since I had a meeting here, I had no idea I would run into you, and you saved Mokuba."

"Couldn't let that crazy dog hurt a little kid. I didn't even realize it was Mokuba until after I put the dog to sleep."

"You're still brave and stubborn as I remembered. I'm glad my pup didn't get hurt."

"Nothing can hurt Joey Wheeler!"

Seto chuckled, and stroked his hair. "No one can hurt you since I'll be the one standing by your side."

"Never thought you would be corny, Seth."

"Call me Seto. In this life, I no longer go by Seth anymore. Seto Kaiba is who I am, and the same goes for Mokuba."

"I'll make sure to keep that in mind," Joey grinned, and hugged him again. "I really missed you."

Seto rubbed his back. "Me too, puppy. Now that we have reunited, I can finally marry you and start a family with you."

Joey looked at him. "Seto, men can't get pregnant, and magic doesn't exist here."

"Actually, it is possible."

"W-What do you mean?"

Seto smirked, picking up Joey and placing him over his shoulder. "I'll tell you once we go to my mansion. We'll have dinner there, spend time with Mokuba, and have some alone time in my bedroom."

"W-Wait! What?! Are you trying to get me pregnant!? I'm in culinary school, you baka!"

"Don't worry. We'll marry first and once you finish culinary school, I will impregnate you so you will carry my children."

"You're insane!"

"Only for you. Now let us go."

"Put me down! I actually wanna walk!"

"I was thinking of naming our daughter Kisara."

"You're completely insane!"

Malik continued to glance at his phone, letting him know its after 5. Right now, he's sitting on the couch in the museum's office. Ishizu called him and told him to meet him here in the office at exactly 5:00 p.m. He asked her why, and she said it was a surprise. Wondering if its related to their wedding, Malik told her yes and hung up. Now, he's in the office but there is no Ishizu or Odion.

Then, the door opened, causing him to stand up while glaring at them. "You two are 10 minutes late. You said exactly 5:00 p.m."

"We apologize, my brother. Our conversation with our guests nearly made us forget about the time," Ishizu gave him an apologetic look.

"Indeed. My deepest apologies for worrying you, Malik," Odion said.

Malik arched his eyebrow. "Guests? That's the surprise?"

Ishizu nodded. "Auntie Sadiki and her clan are friends with them. Their family came from a long line of assassins. They are invited to mine and Odion's wedding."

"They are waiting for us at the Egyptian exhibit. Please follow us, brother," Odion replied.

Malik sighed, and did what he was told. However, the guests descended from assassins peaked his interest. He did remember Heru being an assassin. Is it possible he would meet someone related to Heru, or could it be a different family from another region? Questions continued to fill his head until he arrived at the Egyptian exhibit, and noticed a tall Egyptian man with dreadlocks and hazel eyes gazing at the tablet.

He was dressed in a blue business suit with a pair of black slacks, and a shiny silver watch on his left wrist. He did notice some golden bands on his neck and wrists along with a pair of ankh earrings. The man turned his head, and gave him a small smile. "Hello, young man. You must be their younger brother Malik, correct?" The man placed one arm over his body and bowed. "I am Kosey, former heir of the Ehab clan. It is an honor to meet you, heir of the Ishtar clan."

Malik respectively bowed back. "It is an honor to meet you as well, Mr. Ehab. I heard many great things about your clan. Thank you for coming here to meet my family and me."

"You're way too kind," Kosey straightened up. "Your family had told me that you are continuing your education, correct?"

"That's right. I am studying at Domino University in order to pursue a teaching degree in becoming a college professor who studies Ancient Egypt."

"How fascinating. My son was thinking of going to that university to pursue a business degree so he can take over my company once I retire."

"Your son?"

"He is exploring the whole museum right now. Let me call out to him." Kosey cleared his throat and opened his mouth. "Mariku! Get over here right away and greet our guest!"

Hearing footsteps approaching them, Malik looked over and froze, doing a double take. Kosey's son looked exactly like Heru, from the face to hair along with height and figure. The only thing different is he is wearing a black tank top with beige pants and black shoes. There was also a dark purple jacket tied around his waist.

Malik shivered as he felt Mariku's gaze on him, his dark violet eyes scanning him from head to toe. He noticed his lips stretching into a small smirk, but soon hid it as he did the same bow Kosey did. "It is an honor to meet the members of the Ishtar clan. I am Mariku, heir of the Ehab clan. I plan on studying in Domino University in order to work alongside my father in his company."

Ishizu and Odion bowed back, causing Malik to quickly bow back while trying not to stare at him. He couldn't believe it. Heru had been reborn again, and it's in the form of Mariku, heir of the Ehab clan. This was no coincidence. Heru is an assassin, and the Ehab clan came from a family of assassins. Heru and Mariku are obviously related.

"You two must be exhausted from your long trip. Let us drive you to our home and serve you some tea and snacks," Ishizu smiled politely. "We also have the bedrooms made if you both need some sleep."

Kosey nodded. "That would be nice. However, there's something I wish to discuss with you both. Is it all right we talk privately in your office?"

"Of course. Malik can keep your son company while us adults talk in the office," Odion replied.

"Splendid," Kosey placed his hand on his son's shoulder. "Mariku, would you mind waiting here? My talk with them won't take too long. Promise me you'll remain on your best behavior."

Mariku glanced at Malik, and smirked. "I shall wait for you, father. I promise to not cause any trouble."

"Good boy," Kosey gently squeezed his shoulder. "I'll be back soon."

As he left the area with Ishizu and Odion, Malik gulped now that he and Mariku are alone. He is still looking at him, and he's staring right back at him. Seeing his appearance made him remember Heru, causing him to close his eyes and turn around so Mariku wouldn't see his tears. It'll be awkward if he cried out of nowhere.

Malik stiffened as he felt arms wrapped around his body from behind, pulling him back in which he could feel a muscular chest pressed against his back. He shivered as he felt his warm breath blowing against his ear.

"Is something wrong, Malik?~"

He quickly wiped his eyes. "N-Nothing's wrong. I just had something in my eye, that's all."

"Do not lie to me, pretty~ I don't like it when you lie to your Heru~"

He froze, hearing those words repeat in his head. Did he just say what he think he said. Only person he knows would call him that, and that person existed 3,000 years ago. "H-Heru?"

He felt himself being spun around, his face looking at Mariku's devilish smile. "I am happy you still remembered me, my pretty~ I finally found you after such a long time~"

Tears began to sting his eyes, as they streamed down his cheeks. He lunged at Mariku and hugged him tightly, sobbing onto his chest while tightening his grip on him. He felt arms wrapped around him, comforting him while whispering soothing words to him. His Heru came back. Heru had reincarnated, and is reborn as Mariku Ehab. He even got his memories back from his previous life, and was able to find Malik. To him, it's a miracle.

"Do not cry, my pretty Malik~ Tears do not suit you~"

Malik choked back a sob, as he hugged him tighter. "I-I thought I would never see you again! T-The gods were able to reincarnate you!? And how did you get all of your memories back!?"

Mariku stroked his hair. "They did after seeing how unhappy I was without you. I did not get my memories back until I turned 16. I had to complete my education first and then go look for you. I took the opportunity to come here with my adoptive father."

"A-Adoptive father?"

"Kosey took me in when I was small and raised me like his own son. He was unable to have children, and decided that I will be the new heir of the Ehab clan. Luckily, my blood still remembered being an assassin."

"D-Does he know about your past life?"

"I have, and he said he will support me as long as I focus on my duties first. He doesn't mind us being together either, and will give us his blessing to marry after we finish our education."

Malik wiped his eyes and raised his head. "Y-You still wish to marry me?"

"And start a family with you," Mariku finished.

"Magic doesn't exist here, and it's impossible for me to get pregnant."

"It is possible. We found a solution to that."

"What solution?"

"I'll tell you right after we do this."

Grabbing his chin, he locked lips with Malik and hugged his hips. Malik gasped, but then kissed him back while hugging his neck. He missed getting kissed by his counterpart, missed his warmth, and missed his touch. It's actually a good thing Malik and his friends did not keep their oath in high school, because it's impossible not to touch someone who is a personification of a sex god.

As they continued to kiss, they didn't realize Kosey, Ishizu, and Odion came back from the office and saw them kiss. Instead, they quietly went back to the office to give them their privacy.

Ryou gazed at the exotic fish swimming in the waters, moving their tails from side to side while swimming in different directions. First there were angelfishes, then puffer fish, and later a manatee. Each and every species of fish swam with each other, or with their own group.

Domino City Aquarium is the one place Ryou likes to come to whenever he needs some alone time with himself. Seeing many types of animals who live in the water or on land fascinated him. It's almost like he's walking underwater, and seeing everything while still breathing oxygen. The structure, beauty, colors, and appearance made him and the visitors admire nature's beauty. Even those who love the ocean are still in awe at seeing the clear, blue water in the tank.

This place not only clears his head, but also cheers him up whenever he's upset. For now, he's been coming here almost every day ever since his return from ancient Egypt. Akefia can never fade away from his mind, and distracting himself with sea creatures is the only thing keeping him from crying.

It's been months since he last saw his bandit king, and wished there was another way to see him again. Sadly, the pocket-watch is broken, and Akefia lost his life saving Khemet from the evil monster called Zorc. He's still surprised that duel monsters existed back in ancient Egypt, and was astonished to learn that Akefia has a Ka spirit that reminded him of a huge snake. Looks like Akefia really is a cobra.

Passing by each exhibit, he stopped in front of a tank where a shark is held. Known as the Great White Shark, it likes to show off its massive, sharp teeth to show how powerful and dangerous the predator is. Due to its carnivorous nature, it enjoys raw meat a lot. To Ryou, the shark reminded him of Akefia due to its personality and sharp teeth.

He placed his hand on the glass, and stared into its beady eyes. "I don't know if you can understand me, but I like to call you Akefia. He is known as the King of Thieves back in ancient Egypt, and you remind me so much of him. You're both not afraid of danger, and you can easily tear things apart with either your sharp teeth or knives."

The shark didn't say anything, but stared at Ryou as he continued to speak. "Its strange that you're not ignoring me, since you usually tend to ignore the other visitors who come to see you. I understand that you don't like this tank, and you wish to go back home. I hope they'll bring you back to your ocean. We all deserve to be free." He gave the shark a small smile. "It's a little weird for me to talk to a shark, but it feels like you're listening to me. It's probably due to the fact I never told anyone about your hidden treasure that you kept safe in your territory. That's one thing you have in common with Akefia: finding rare, valuable treasure and keeping it to yourself."

"Not only that, bandit kings never let anyone see their treasure nor have it taken away from them. They keep it safe in their hideout, inspect it, cherish it, and love it for all eternity."

Ryou spun around and let out a huge gasp, his eyes dilated in astonishment at seeing a tall man who resembled Akefia. However, there's a huge difference since it looked like he could pass off as Ryou's twin or relative. The tall man had pale skin, and he wore a striped shirt with a black trench coat over it, gray pants, and blue and white sneakers. His hair is like Ryou's, but a little spikier and has two strands of hair standing up like devil horns.

The man smirked, folding his arms over his chest. "Like what you see?~"

Ryou turned red, and quickly shook his head. "I-I apologize for staring! Y-You just surprised me, that's all!"

"It looked like you did more than staring~ You were checking me out, weren't you?~"

"N-No! I would never do that!"

"Oh really?~"

"Yes really!"

"Don't you think I'm good-looking or hot?~"

Ryou gulped. "I-I just remembered I must get home right away before evening time approaches! G-Goodbye, sir!"

He tried walking past him, but the man stepped in front of him to block him. Ryou went the other way, but the man got in front of him again. He gulped, slowly backing away as the man got closer. Feeling his back hit against the glass wall, Ryou trembled as both arms trapped him against the wall, preventing him from escaping. This scene felt familiar to him, as he felt shivers running down his spine.

The man leaned in close, chuckling while gazing at his light brown eyes with his dark brown eyes that nearly look red. "You won't be going anywhere, little lamb~"

Ryou's breath hitched at the nickname. "T-This is an aquarium. P-Please let me go."

"Before, you reminded me of an innocent, newborn baby rabbit~ Now, you became a feisty little snake~" he licked his lips. "I'll never forget the time you revealed about your friend's siblings being in a forbidden relationship, making us think they're having an incestuous relationship until we learned your friend's elder brother is adopted~ After all, incest is common back then due to keeping the bloodline pure in royalty~"

Ryou froze, repeating his statement in his head. He knew what he was talking about, and it couldn't be possible. This is about Malik's older siblings being in a relationship, and he accidentally yelled it out loud in front of Akefia, Heru, and their horses. Even the other bandits and assassins heard it, but didn't comment since it was a normal occurrence to them.

He stared at the man, letting out a soft whisper for him to hear. "Akefia…"

The man smirked triumphantly. "Long ago, it was once my name. Now, I go by the name of Bakura. Bakura Touzoku." He gently placed his hand on Ryou's cheek. "I have finally found you, Ryou. This time, you're not letting out of my sight again."

Tears welled up in Ryou's eyes, realizing what he said is real and not a dream. Akefia returned to him, and was reborn again as Bakura Touzoku. He didn't question on how his own last name became his counterpart's first name because he's too busy focusing on his lover existing in this era. Reincarnation had happened to his bandit king, and they found each other.

Bakura gave him a gentle smile, wiping away Ryou's tears. "Lets continue this conversation somewhere else. Can't let anyone stare at us."

Remembering they were still in the aquarium, Ryou wiped his eyes and nodded. Feeling his hand being grabbed, he let Bakura lead him away from the aquarium and outside towards a bench, where a huge tree is resting behind it to provide them some shade. As they sat down next to each other, Bakura placed his arm around him and pulled him close. Luckily, the bench is hidden from view so no one would see them.

"I missed you so much, my innocent little lamb~" Bakura purred in delight, planting a soft kiss on his cheek. "It took me forever to find you, and I finally did~"

Ryou snuggled against him. "How did you get your memories back? And how were you able to find me? I thought when you were reborn again, you get new memories."

"I don't know how, but they came back to me when I turned 16. I thought I was imagining it, but my family figured out why and explained to me our family history. After learning my ancestor was once the king of thieves, that's when the pieces began to click. I remembered my time as Akefia, my meeting with the pharaoh, assassin, and priest, along with me meeting you at the Mortuary Temple. I'm still amused that you thought I was just a giant statue, when I'm actually real. You're brave enough to say it directly to my face."

Ryou flushed in embarrassment. "I-I was certain you were a real-life statue."

"Sadly, I am not. But back to the story. After all of my memories had returned, I had to start searching for you. Unfortunately, I couldn't leave my hometown until I graduate from school. I was able to find the pharaoh and the others, so we decided to complete our education as quick as we can, and start gathering information to find you." Bakura stroked his hair. "We remembered how you mentioned of your hometown being in Japan, and we were able to pinpoint your location here in this city thanks to your two friends being famous duelists."

"You mean Yugi and Joey?"

"That's correct. We were able to find your addresses, and came here to search for you. I didn't find you at home, so I wandered around the city and stumbled upon this aquarium. Luckily, I found you having a conversation with a great white shark. Excellent friend you have there, by the way."

"T-The shark is a good listener."

"Sharks are indeed powerful and deadly. I'm glad you thought of me as not only a cobra, but also a shark."

"E-Eavesdropping is wrong, you know."

"I know, and I don't care. Now that I have finally found you, I can now marry you and have you bear me children."

Ryou looked at him in disbelief. "B-Bakura, you do remember that I am a male and I'm unable to give birth, right?"

"There is a solution to help you get pregnant."

"Magic doesn't exist here in this era, Bakura."

"Actually, it does. We still have the pharaoh's mages to help us."

"T-They're also here!?"

"Indeed. Before we do that, we're going to my house."

"May I ask why?"

"So I can do this."

He planted his lips against Ryou's lips, forcing his tongue into his mouth for access and to taste every corner of his mouth. Ryou gasped, and then moaned in the kiss while hugging him. His spicy kiss always made his body go hot, and it was an addiction to Ryou. Whether the kiss is sweet or spicy, Ryou liked it either way.

He could feel Bakura's hands caressing his sides, moving all the way down to his thighs. A squeak escaped from the kiss as he felt hands squeezing his butt. He almost forgot that the king of thieves is very handsy, and likes to touch Ryou a lot.

Breaking the kiss, Ryou panted heavily as a string of saliva came out of his mouth and connected with Bakura's. Even though the weather is cool, his body still felt hot. Bakura's kiss made him feel that way, and now his whole body is aching for his touch.

Bakura smirked and pecked his lips. "I love you, my cute little Ryou~"

Ryou blushed. "I love you too, Bakura."

"Good~ Now, let us go to my house so we can continue where we left off~"

Ryou yelped as he felt himself being picked up. Realizing Bakura is holding him like a princess, Ryou hugged his neck. "H-Hold on! I can just follow you! Y-You don't have to carry me!"

"Nonsense. I prefer carrying you there since I love having you in my arms."

"B-Bakura, we're still outside in a public area."

"People will know that you belong to me."

"But its still embarrassing!"

"Don't be shy, my cute little snake. My house won't be that far."

"Can't we just drive to your house?"

"Nah. Walking with you in my arms would be better."

"My legs aren't broken though."

"I prefer carrying you so I can practice bringing you into my home and over to my bedroom where I will-

"Too much information! Nothing perverted in public!"

"Whatever you say, my little lamb~"

"I'm serious, Bakura!"

"Grandpa, I'm gonna go take a short walk outside. I'll be back home before sunset."

"All right, my boy. Just be careful, and also wear a coat. It will get chilly in the evening."

"Make sure you arrive back home on time. We're having chicken katsudon for dinner tonight."

"I will, mama. I won't be late."

Putting on his violet coat and waving goodbye to his mom and grandpa, Yugi left the game shop and started walking down the sidewalk. It was still early outside, and there were still some people out in the open. Since the sakura season came on the first day of spring, people wanted to stay out longer and gaze at the cherry blossom trees.

This is something Yugi planned to do, since there aren't too many people outside. Avoiding a heavy crowd is better, and he'll be able to get a better view of the sakura flowers. It's a good thing he knows the perfect spot to see them: Domino City's Floral Gardens.

He remembered his friend Tea showing him the gardens one time when they were little, and they were able to not only see all the flowers blooming, but also the sakura flowers blooming from their trees. It's a perfect place for couples to go there, and as long as you respect the plants and flowers there, anyone is welcome to enter the gardens. There was also a legend that if two people kiss under the cherry blossom trees, the sakuras will bloom and rain petals on them, indicating they are soulmates destined to be together forever.

Yugi quietly laughed when he remembered the legend told to him by Tea. He would still blush whenever he remembered that story, and Tea would always comment that his face looks adorable when it's pink like the sakura blossoms. But now, he's gotten over it and chose to enjoy the flowers blooming from nature's beauty.

Speaking of the flowers, he had now arrived at the Floral Gardens and went through the opened gates. Rows of flowers were planted on the ground, bushes, pots, or trees. There were also benches for people to sit on, and he spotted an elderly couple admiring the roses while cuddling with one another. A sad smile appeared on his face as he spotted some lotus flowers blooming in great health.

The purple lotus reminded him of the time Atem gifted him one when they spent some alone time together in the private gardens. To Yugi, it felt like a date to him, and he enjoyed it. Atem would always comment that whenever he sees a purple lotus or any other flower, it would remind him of his Yugi's beautiful amethyst eyes, and would go on and on about how the jewels he have can never match his little one's beauty.

A sad sigh escaped his lips; his amethyst eyes gazed at a cherry blossom tree blooming as its sakura petals fluttered against the wind, almost like they were dancing. To Yugi, he figured the sakura trees could help cheer him up. Even though it's been months ever since he and his friends returned to the future, his heart can never forget Atem. He would always invade his mind, his dreams, and his body.

Learning that the pocket watch can never be fixed, and Atem's demise after protecting Khemet from Zorc made his heart ache in pain. He'll never be able to see his pharaoh again, and there's a 50/50 chance he would be reborn again, but with different memories and a new appearance. Plus, he has no idea if Atem will still be living in Egypt, or in a different location.

Yugi placed his hand on his chest, feeling his pounding heart. "I miss you, my Atem…"

"As do I, my little one~"

Gasping, Yugi turned his head and his eyes widened in surprise and shock. Standing a few feet behind him is a tall man who can pass off as Atem's twin, but with fair skin and wearing a leather outfit that made Yugi blush a little. He wore a black tank-top, leather pants, leather shoes, a choker, spiky bracelets, and a chain necklace that held an upside golden triangle with the Eye of Ra on it.

The stranger gave him a gentle smile. "It has been a long time, my dear Yugi."

Yugi froze, taking a step back. "H-How do you know my name?"

"Don't you remember me, Yugi? It's me, Atem. But now, I go by Yami in this era."

"A-Are you the real Atem?"

"Do you still believe that Siamun is my grandfather, even though he's only my vizier?"

His statement caused him to remember when he believed that Siamun is secretly Atem's grandfather due to their resemblance, and mostly because Siamun reminded Yugi so much of his own grandfather. Only the real Atem would know about Yugi commenting on Siamun being his grandfather, and he would know what a vizier is.

Yugi stared at his crimson eyes, as he took a small step forward. "A-Atem?"

He smiled and brought his hand out. "It is me, my little one~ There's no need to be frightened~"

Gulping, Yugi took another small step forward, seeing that Yami is waiting for him patiently. Taking a few more steps, he slowly lifted his hand and placed it on top of Yami's hand, causing Yami to grasp his hand and pull him towards his body. As he felt his body being pressed by Yami's body, he sniffed and got the scent of spices, flowers, and fruit. Tears welled up in his eyes, as he hugged him tightly and sobbed on his chest. This person really is Atem, and he had been reincarnated.

Not only that, he got all his memories of him and found him here. He is now reunited with his pharaoh, and they'll never separate again. He felt warm arms wrapped around him, rubbing his back while whispering soothing words to him to calm him. He'll never let go of his Atem ever again. This hug will stay like this forever.

He didn't know how long he cried, but it soon turned into hiccups as he lifted his head and gazed at Yami. "I-I thought I would never see you again, my pharaoh. T-The watch broke and-

Yami shushed him, wiping away his tears. "Our departure did not end well, and it would've been impossible for you to come back due to the circumstances happening in Khemet. I believe that's why Heh had to send you and your friends back to your era quickly before Zorc appeared."

"W-We saw a tablet in the museum showing you and the others battling Zorc. How come you never told me that duel monsters existed during that time?"

"I was so distracted by you that it never occurred to me. I apologize for not telling you."

"Its fine. But how were you able to remember me again? Were you reborn again?"

"I was. I got all my memories back of you when I turned 16 on my birthday. My parents explained to me everything on what my past is like 3,000 years ago, and the pieces came together like a puzzle. The Millennium Puzzle that I wore around my neck also helped me recover my memories of when we first met, our adventures, and our last goodbye."

"The Millennium Puzzle?"

"A family heirloom passed down from one generation to the next. After I got all my memories back, I had to quickly finish my education so I could look for you. I was able to get my cousin and the others to reunite with me, and left our hometown so we could come here. Now, I have found you and I'm never losing you again."

"Does this mean we can finally be together forever?"

"For all eternity. This time, I'll finally marry you and have you bear me my children."

"Y-Yami, I can't get pregnant. I'm a male."

"There is a way for you to get pregnant. Luckily, my trusted mages Mahado and Mana had also been reincarnated and they have the spell needed to help you get pregnant."

"I thought it wasn't possible!"

"It is possible, my akhu. We'll test it out by meeting them at my mansion."

Yugi blushed, and then shook his head. "Not right now, Yami. I promised my mama and grandpa that I would return home before dinner."

"Then it's the perfect opportunity for me to meet them."

"They don't know that you and I are lovers."

"They'll love me for sure. I still need to thank them for raising such a sweet, kind, and beautiful angel in this desolate world."

Yugi's cheeks turned pink. "T-Thank you."

"You're welcome," Yami smiled, caressing his cheek. "I missed you so much, my beloved aibou. I love you to the moon and back."

"Mou hitori no boku…" Yugi whispered. "My heart never stopped aching for you. I too love you from the bottom of my heart."

As they gazed at each other, they slowly leaned in and pressed their lips together. Soon, it became heated as they started to make out. While kissing, they didn't notice the cherry blossom trees had bloomed more, causing the sakura petals to fall and dance around the two boys, indicating they were long lost soul-mates reunited again.

When they parted, Yugi squeaked when he felt himself getting lifted. Realizing Yami is carrying him bridal style, Yugi hugged his neck while blushing. "W-What are you doing, Yami?"

"I am going to carry you to your home. I want to meet my future mother-in-law and grandfather-in-law."

"But I can walk though! And people will stare!"

"They will know you are mine. Plus, it'll be good practice so I can carry you down the aisle after we wed."

"P-Please take it slow, Yami. Its best to wait until we obtain our family's blessing."

"You're right. They'll get upset if I got you pregnant before marriage."

"And please don't be too pervy!"

"No promises on that, aibou. You're way too adorable and cuddly. I loved it when you were dressed up in those concubine outfits. Its almost like you were seducing me."

"That only happened once!"

"Which is wonderful. Now, let us go to your home and we can discuss about what our wedding will be like."

"Yami, lets not rush things."

"The wedding colors should be red and purple to match our eyes. I even found a beautiful wedding dress in the catalog that will suit you perfectly."

"You need a therapist!"

2 years later

"Cousin, please sit down. You're making a rut from your pacing."

"Seto, you know I can't sit down. My lover is in that room bringing our child into this world!"

"Baka pharaoh, they'll both be fine! Quit worrying so much!"

"The priest and his lover had their child and everything went well for them. The same goes for me and my pretty."

"I know, but I still worry though," Yami dragged his hand through his hair. "I'm glad the spell gave our lovers the ability to carry and give birth to our children, but pregnancy can also be a little dangerous. I hope and pray Yugi and our little Amun will be okay after this."

"Amun?" Ryou asked, while sitting next to Bakura with a pregnant belly. "That's the name you've chosen for yours and Yugi's baby?"

Yami nodded. "Amun if it's a boy, or Sohara if it's a girl."

"The ancient Egyptian god of the sun and air," Malik said, while holding a sleeping newborn baby in his arms. "A fitting name for the son of a pharaoh."

Mariku grinned. "Menes is also a great name for our little boy. His great grandfather is a very strong assassin."

Their little boy, who is sleeping in Malik's arms, softly snored while snuggling into Malik's chest. Malik cradled him, and kissed his forehead. "He will also not get his back carved. We already know the name of the nameless pharaoh, so there's no need to continue that barbaric tradition."

"Indeed. I'm not afraid to create bloodshed if anyone goes near my family."

"Just not in front of our children."

"I'll keep that in mind, pretty."

Joey shivered at his demonic smile, holding his son Seth protectively in his arms, who is a carbon copy of his father Seto. "I suddenly have a feeling that his kids will be bloodthirsty like their dad."

Seto rolled his eyes. "Mariku, do not corrupt your children or anyone with your murderous tendencies. The same goes for you, Bakura."

"No promises on that, priest," Bakura snickered.

"Anyways, Yugi will be fine. His mom is in there with him to give him support. Plus, grandpa had to make sure you wouldn't barge in there while he's getting a C-section," Joey replied.

"He is correct," Solomon arrived, and handed Yami a cup of coffee. "I went through the same feeling with my son's birth, and he went through the same with Yugi's birth. Now, you're gonna be there for your son's birth."

Yami nodded, sitting down back on the chair and sipped his coffee. "I'm grateful that you and mother are okay with me being with Yugi. He means the whole world to me."

Solomon smiled, and patted his shoulder. "I'm grateful that Yugi is able to find someone who loves him and treats him right."

"My father always treated my mother as his queen. I made sure to treat Yugi as my precious queen."

"And once Amun is older, he'll find his one true love and do the same thing you would do for Yugi."

"Now I'm glad he'll still be a baby. I need to prepare for when he becomes a teenager," Yami replied.

Then, they heard a loud, wailing cry coming from the labor and delivery room. A nurse wearing scrubs, a coat, mask, and eye goggles came out of the delivery room. "Are all of you the family and friends of Yugi Sennen?"

Yami got up. "I'm his husband. Is he and our baby okay?"

The nurse nodded while smiling. "He is doing well. The C-section is a success, and your little boy is born strong and healthy."

Yami let out a huge sigh of relief, thanking the gods for keeping his lover and baby safe. "Thank you so much."

Joey grinned and patted his back. "See! Yugi is strong! There was nothing to worry about!"

"Congratulations, cousin. You'll now be able to enjoy fatherhood," Seto gave him a hint of a smile, but only for a few seconds.

Mariku snickered. "Lets see if he'll look like the pharaoh, or the midget."

"I bet he'll be dark and scary when the pharaoh was in that emo phase," Bakura snorted.

"I heard that!" Yami glared at him.

Solomon chuckled, and looked at the nurse. "Are we allowed to see them?"

"You can, but only one visitor can come. Our patient and his child must rest and recover, so please use your time wisely," the nurse told him.

Ryou answered. "Yami will go. We'll wait until Yugi is transferred to another room to see him."

Malik nodded. "I agree. Plus, he is itching to see his baby already."

Yami is surprised at their answer, and gave them a grateful smile. "Thank you. I'll let him know that you wish him well."

Joey patted his shoulder. "Don't forget to tell him that once he fully recovers, we'll schedule a play-date after Ryou's kid is born."

"That's a good idea," Ryou smiled and caressed his stomach.

After Yami got gowned up by another nurse for safety protocol, he went inside the delivery room and spotted Yugi resting on the bed, with Mrs. Mutou holding a newborn wrapped in a blanket in her arms. Yami went over to his husband's bedside and kissed him. "I'm here, my love. Are you okay?"

Yugi nodded, his face and hair covered in sweat. "I am. The procedure went well, and our baby came out healthy and strong."

"That's good to hear," Yami looked at the bundle. "Amun is okay?"

Mrs. Mutou smiled and nodded. "He is. You are now a father, Yami. How do you feel?"

"So very happy. My heart is bursting in joy that my son came into this world."

"Good answer," she went over and gently placed the bundle in his arms. "Now bond with your son. He's awake and wanted to meet you."

Yami's breath hitched as he looked down at the bundle in his arms, showing a baby who resembled him when he was a baby. His skin is fair, his eyes are crimson, and his hair is already showing. However, he noticed that his son inherited Yugi's nose, and adorable expression.

The baby blinked, letting out a small coo as he gazed at Yami. Tears started to stream down Yami's cheeks, as he choked back a sob and hugged Amun. Today, he finally became a father. His son is here, and was made out of his and Yugi's love for each other. He finally came into this world, and they'll be able to shower with him with love, care, and affection.

Kissing his forehead and then his cheeks, Yami nuzzled his son's nose, who let out a small giggle. "Hello, my adorable little Amun. I am your daddy, and I will teach you how to avoid fangirls and fanboys since you'll inherit mine and your mommy's beautiful personality."

Yugi giggled, but then stopped. "I'm the mommy?"

"That's right. Yugi is your mommy, and he'll teach you how to play duel monsters."

Yugi blinked, and then sighed. "Amun, I forgot to mention that your daddy can also be weird."

"Please don't tell my son that I'm weird."

"Too late. Now he knows."

"He won't remember it at all."

"I'll remind him."

"But aibou!"

Amun giggled and cooed, while Mrs. Mutou giggled at their playful interaction. As Yami continued to hug and coo to his son, Yugi let himself relax as he gazed at the ceiling. Who knew that the pocket-watch will not only let them time-travel, but brought them to ancient Egypt where he and his friends found love. Now, he's married to Yami, and they now have a son. His life is not only crazy, but also insane.
