After the little heartbreak I gave you with the last snippet I thought it would be nice to write out the scene when Atem/Yami and Yanara/Afya meet again in modern times as spirits of their respective Millenium Items. ^^

Enjoy this snippet for the Infinityship :D

Here is the base I used: akatsukimaychan/art/Yami-Yugi-x-OC-Base-Request-for-iba2001-527054166

And here is what I made of it: empressofthesun/art/Infinityshipping-932421020

Snippet 5: Duelist Kingdom

Afya had a small smile as she looked around the cabin.

Sehrazat, Kihana, and Sadiye were sleeping peacefully in one bed, while Maja and this new girl Anzu shared the other. Jounouchi and Honda had each taken one of the couches for themselves and were having a snoring contest it seems and little Yuugi was curled up in the armchair.

It looked like "her kids" and the new ones felt comfortable with each other. She was happy that they made friends fast.

Softly humming she stroked Sehrazat's blue locks.

Maybe with their new allies, they would have even more of a chance not only to get Amira's soul back, also little Yuugi's grandfather's soul and the price money Jounouchi needed for his little sister's operation.

That's when she felt how the air was humming with energy. With old ancient magic. The kind she used herself.

She closed her eyes, yet didn't stop her humming.

The once queen of all Egypt had wondered when the spirit of the Millenium Puzzle would talk to her.

They both had sensed each other when Yuugi and Sehrazat first met.

"So you decide finally to show yourself?", she couldn't help but use a huffy tone. She had tried early to talk to him, but he had refused to answer her. How rude! "I wonder for a second if you would stay in the puzzle for all the journey."

The spirit of the Millenium Puzzle or as he called himself Yami admitted he did feel a bit bad that he hadn't talked to his follow spirit early. He was just so surprised to encounter another soul like him, that he needed to think for a while. It didn't help that the presence of the spirit of the Millenium Fragment was so…so familiar to him, even if it didn't make any sense!

He had needed time for himself.

Yami had his hands in his pant pockets and looked at how the female spirit seemed to check on the new friends of Yuugi and also Yuugi and his friends too.

She seemed like a mother, looking after her flesh and blood to make sure they were all right.

Something deep in him twisted painfully, and a feeling of bittersweetness washed over him.

He wonders why?

That's when his fellow spirit turned to him, fixing him with a regal expression, fitting for a great queen and orange eyes so sharp, that he had a feeling she could look right through him.

She was really beautiful.

Her long dark blue hair reminds him of the night sky and her unique orange eyes were not from this world. She had more womanly curves than her young partner, yet he could make out the muscles she had.

This was someone who could fight physically with any man and he had a feeling she would end up victorious.

Meanwhile, Afya had similar thoughts running through her head.

Little Yuugi's darker half, was taller than him, his hair a bit wilder, and his eyes the color of the most beautiful amethyst. His face was serious, sharper, but oh so handsome.

Like the gods had sculpted it.

If she were a young girl she would have probably swooned, but she was an ancient spirit, a queen nonetheless, she swooned because of no one!

Even if such a fine specimen was before her.

"I apologize.", he addressed her with a sinful-sounding voice, which made her shiver lightly. Since Sehrazat awoke her soul from her deep slumber, no one had gotten such a reaction out of her. What was happening? "I should have talked to you before, but I admit. I was quite in shock meeting someone in the same situation I'm in."

Afya put a hand on her hip, fully aware of how the other spirit seemed to check her shapely body up thanks to her movement as she had intended.

Was she flirting?

Yes.

She couldn't resist.

"You mean trapped in a Millenium Item, bonded to a young teenager and with no memory?", she nearly purred.

Yami balled the hands in his pockets into fists. Her honeyed voice got to him and was it his imagination or was the room filled with energy?

Sinful, erotic, energy.

Well, he wouldn't complain.

You didn't meet such a beautiful woman any day.

"So you are just like me, what is your name?", he asked her, making his voice drop more, delightful in seeing her shiver a bit and batting her long eyelashes at him.

"Afya was the name my descendant gave me. You may call me so…?"

"Yami."

"Yami.", she repeated purring like a cat and now he had to control his shivers.

By Afya triumphed glint in her outwordly eyes, he failed miserably. Well, two could play this game.

He gave her a smirk, which clearly affected Afya, and asked: "Descendant? Do you mean the young girl who wears the Millenium Fragment? I thought you don't remember anything."

"Apparently I was once a powerful queen of Egpyt.", she started to explain, playing with a lock of her hair. Yami got the desire to run his finger into these dark blue locks. "Before I died, my soul was put into my Millenium Item and one of my daughters became its keeper. For thousands of years, her bloodline kept it safe, till it was Sehrazat's turn. When she put it on, my soul awoke and here I am now."

"I slept for such as long too.", Yami's eyes wander over the sleeping Yugi, and a little smile forms. "When Yugi solved the puzzle, it was like a was reborn into this world. I know my roots lay in Egypt too. Probably all Millenium Items are from there."

He heard how Afya hummed, then the other spirit walked closer to him. Now they stood before each other.

She cocked her head in a flirty fashion, showing him her long elegant throat, and reached with one hand out to him.

Afya rubbed his shoulder and then slide with her hand his arm up and down.

If he was a weaker man, he would have gulped and turned red, but he wasn't so he raised an eyebrow at her and wrapped one lock of her hair around his finger.

It was really soft and smooth.

"I have a feeling you want to make a point, beautiful Afya.", know he was the one purring and Afya felt her knees going weak.

She licked her lips and had to keep a winning smile from her face as she saw how Yami followed hungrily this motion with his eyes.

"Mmh, we both are from Egypt, I was a queen once and we both feel the connection that the Puzzle and Fragment have with each other."

"If you are pointing out the obvious that I was the pharaoh to your queen, my dear, then you don't need to waste your breath. I already suspected it, when you told me your story."

Afya narrow her eyes at him and stopped rubbing his arm. She came really close to his face, their nose barely touching.

"Then why didn't you say so before and play dumb?", she hissed offended. Was he only playing with her? "We may have been married once, but I am no one's plaything."

"I didn't think that and for making you feel this way I am sorry.", he apologized sincerely and put a bit of hair behind her ear. "I admit, this is new and exciting. I thought we would keep on flirting. I greatly enjoyed our banter."

Yami had to fight the smirk at her bashful expression.

His queen was tough, he felt it in his bones, yet she was with him like a freshly fallen-in-love girl.

Mmh, his queen…

He indeed liked the sound of it.

Before she could answer him, they both heard a sleepy voice calling for her. It was her young host and descendant…which meant she was also his? Did he and Afya have kids? He needed to ask her the next time they were alone.

"Gran-Gran? What are you doing?"

Seems like Sehrazat, that was her name if Yami remembered right, couldn't see him.

Afya gave him such a hot look, that he felt his knees go weak. That look promised more than delightful banter…he couldn't wait.

"Nothing, child of mine. Do you want me to sing you a lullaby to fall back asleep?", Afya asked her.

Something like a yes came from Sehrazat. Afya squeeze his hand, till she walked and sat then down beside her hikari, to sing her to sleep.

Yami decides to go back into his puzzle.

He wouldn't disturb the two ladies with his presence.

Also, he had a lot to think about.

Other than when they were alive and know they had to marry, Yami and Afya seem to like each other already really much. XD

I want to point out that this two have a lot of sexual tension right now.

They aren't in love with each other yet, they lust for each other.

Love needs time to grow and we already have love at first sight with the Dandelionshipping, Yuugi, and Sehrazat, so I decide the second time they fall in love would be a bit more…erotic. ;)

I hope you enjoyed this snippet!

Also to remind you:
