Yugi sat on his bed in he's boxers. "Yami what are you going to do?" Yugi asked Yami who was a pharaoh. "Well Yugi I'm going to force Giya to tell me what is with that girl Bastet!" Yugi was somewhat shocked that Yami was going to use force with Giya. But he too wanted to know what was with Bastet. Yugi covered himself with the blankets, and said "Goodnight Yami." Yami smiled "Goodnight Yugi."
Yami was inside the temple, but couldn't see Giya anywhere. "Where is she?" Yami asked and like the gods answering his question, a woman of temple came across Yami. "Young Pharaoh, follow me and you will find, the one you seek." Then the woman started to walk to a different part of the temple. Yami followed the woman, and soon a room, was what she walked to and pointed to it. "The one you seek is, in here may Ra be with you." She said then disappeared. Yami walked into the room and indeed, Giya was in the room. "Hey Yami" She said happily. Then out of nowhere Yami pushed her to the wall. "Now you will tell, what is with Bastet!" Giya shocked asked "Why do you even want to know?" Yami glared at her. "I keep feeling this... other soul within her. That isn't good nor evil and I want to know, what that thing is." Giya put on a small smile. "Alright I'll tell you. It all started when we were both six, when we were walking together. Than this man came up to us. Bastet didn't hear him but I did. He said 'How would you like to meet your, lover once again. Bast...' Was what he said." Yami had let go of her shoulders and let her move around. "Then he touched her neck, then the symbol of Ankh appeared on Bastet's neck. Then he left, I didn't know what he did but I felt something deep with in Bastet reach the surface. But it didn't manifest until that night. And she turned into a soul, that was angry and full of grief and sadness. She started to do bad things, but I knew the soul wasn't evil. But it just did bad things, which of course everyone as done at least once in there life." Yami sat on the bed, and nodded. "For four month's it when on, changing into what I called then Bast. Because that's what the man had called her. Soon I limited Bast's appearances, to full moon's and crescents. But now my spell is gone and Bastet has control over Bast. Does that answer you clearly?" Giya said. Yami nodded wildly, Giya smiled and grabbed Yami by the arm "Well we better find out what our first quest is." She said and kissed Yami on the lips, and Yami nodded.
They found out what there quest was it was to find the eye of Horus. They set out and found it in a matter, of two hours. Since that was there quest for the night they had an hour to spend with each other. After and hour Yami left, and Giya was smiling because she was getting closer to coming back.
Yugi opened his eyes and smiled. "For once, I got to spend time with her." Yugi said but this time he didn't get up, he just laid in bed thinking about Gina.
-at the Kaiba residence-
For the first time in along time, Kaiba woke up at believe it or not at ten a clock. Kaiba sat up in bed "Man, I feel like I got hit by a bus head on." He felt like this because of Mokuba, which he didn't know. Kaiba looked at his attire and could remember falling asleep, nor anything else about last night except eating dinner with Mokuba. Mokuba poked his head in "Good morning, big brother. Kaiba rubbed his head, having a headache. "Good morning Mokuba." Kaiba shook his head but that only made his head ache worse. "I'll get you some headache pills." Mokuba said. He left the room and when he was out of hearing range he snickered, about what had happened last night. He walked to the bathroom and looked in the medicine cabinet. He found the headache pills, and filled a glass with PURE water, then walked back to Kaiba's room.
"Here Seto," Mokuba said while handing him two pills and the tall glass of water. Kaiba took the pills and the glass. He placed the pills in his mouth and jugged the water down. "Thanks Mokuba." Mokuba simply nodded, and left the room, leaving Kaiba wondering what happened last night.
-a month later-
Yami and Giya had almost finished all of there quest. After the eye of Horus, they had to find the disk of Aten. Then they had to find the feather or truth for Maat the goddess of truth. Then had to find the missing Neith, goddess of the home, who was the mother of all the gods. She was also the protcetress of the dead. And a lot of other stuff. There last quest was to find Ba the soul because it had gotten lost. They found Ba within the hour and had A LOT of time together. They spent there time happily until Yami had to leave. They only had two more quest to do, and then this bullshit was over.
Yugi opened his eyes and smiled "It's almost over..." He sighed, and continued to lay in bed. He rolled onto his side, and closed his eyes not falling asleep, but just to rest his eyes.
During the month, Bastet hadn't come out...... ever. The only person she let in was Mokuba. And when Bakura or Kaiba had knocked on her door she told them to leave or didn't answer. She had to have time to think, both her and Bast were confused and didn't know what to do. She sat on the couch reading, then she heard a knock at the door. She looked at the door, and walked to it looking through the peep-hole. To see it was Mokuba, she opened the door, and let Mokuba in. Bakura was watching, and sneered "How come, Mokuba gets to go in?" He wondered. Bastet closed the door, and sat back down. "Man, Bastet you've been making yourself, really scarce around here." Mokuba said. Bastet nodded "I know, I just needed time to think." Mokuba jumped up and grabbed her arm "Come on Bastet, why don't we go out. You REALLY need to get out."
Bastet wasn't sure if she should, but Bast thought differently. She was getting bored, Okay, Bastet I'm taking over I REALLY NEED TO GET OUT!!! Bast shouted. Then she did take over. "I'm going, I agree with you Mokuba. And plus I really need to take care of something." Mokuba nodded and was happy that she was finally getting out. Mokuba was already near the door, and was waiting for Bast to come. Bast put on some sandals "Okay, lets go!" She said and Mokuba opened the door, and both walked out. Bast looked up at Bakura's apartment, "Mokuba could you wait here at these stairs?" Mokuba nodded not knowing what Bast was going to do. Bast walked up the stairs, and knocked on Bakura's door. Bakura opened the door "Hey Bastet! How have you've been?" Bakura asked. Bast smiled "I've been better. I really need to talk to you, Bakura." Bakura stunned, stepped aside to let her in.
"What is it Bastet?" Bast looked at Bakura, and he looked worried. "Bakura.... I know how you feel towards me..... But I just don't feel the same way. I'm sorry. But I just want us to be friends." Bakura was shocked, and yet relived. He smiled "I understand Bastet. I'm glad you told me." Bast smiled at Bakura "Thank you for understanding." She hugged Bakura and gently kissed his cheek. "I'll see you later Bakura, bye." She said as she opened the door and left. "Bye," Bakura said waving to her. Bakura looked out the window knowing she loved somebody else but that didn't matter to him anymore.
"So you told Bakura?" Mokuba asked and Bast nodded. "It was hard to do, but I finally did it." Mokuba nodded. "Well come on lets go" Bast placed a hand on his shoulders "Hey, before we do anything. Tell me when your brother is coming so I can hide myself. I really don't feel like talking to him, okay?" She asked and Mokuba nodded. She smiled "Thanks" Mokuba also smiled. Then they left the complex to have a great time.
-5 minutes later-
Yugi walked around town, just for the heck of it until he saw Bastet and Mokuba together having a great time. Wait! That's not Bastet but Bast! Yugi thought. Now he could tell the differences between the two. "Hey Bast!!" Yugi yelled and Bast gulped, she turned to see it was Yugi that had called her Bast. "Giya told you didn't she?' She calmly asked, Yugi ran up to the pair and nodded. Bast sighed "I knew she would sometime. But please Yugi don't tell anyone else about this. But you can tell Bakura." Yugi nodded "Well, I'll see you guys later" and he waved to them, and they waved back. Mokuba looked back to see Kaiba walking up "Hey, Bast Seto's coming. Hide" Bast nodded and hid behind a wall. Kaiba saw his little brother "Mokuba, what are you doing?" He asked. Mokuba smiled "Nothing, really Seto. What are you going to do?" He asked. Seto sighed "I was going to see if Bastet was home, and or she is going to open the door." Mokuba had a nervous smile on as Kaiba passed him "Good luck." After Kaiba left Bast walked out of the shadows "Boy that was close" Mokuba nodded "Come on lets go!" Bast smiled and nodded.
Soon after Kaiba ran into Mokuba he ran into Yugi. "Hello Yugi." Kaiba said. Yugi knew where he was going "You won't find her home, Kaiba." Kaiba stopped and turned to look at Yugi "And how would you know that?" He asked with a growl. "Because not to long ago, I saw her walking with Mokuba." Yugi knew what he was doing. Yugi walked up the shocked Kaiba and patted his shoulder "I'll see you later, Kaiba" and Yugi left, shocked Kaiba. Soon his shock turned into anger. "Mokuba!!" Kaiba said to himself, and walked back home, to wait for Mokuba.
-hours later-
Mokuba had walked Bast back to her apartment "Thanks for, taking me out Mokuba" She smiled. Also during that time Yugi was with Bakura telling him what Giya had told him exna the long story. Mokuba smiled as well "Your welcome, Bast. I'll try and see you later." He waved goodbye to Bast and she waved back, while walking back to her apartment. Meanwhile..... "What????" Bakura shouted "You mean that Bastet is two people?" Yugi nodded. "There's the Bastet we know, and then there is Bast who is a ancient soul, like Yami and your Yami." Bakura couldn't almost believe what he was hearing. Bastet had an ancient soul with in her. He looked out the window to see Bastet walking home, she looked up and waved at him. He waved back "So which one is she now?" Bakura asked. Yugi smiled "Right now she is Bast" Bakura nodded, "Thanks for telling me that, Yugi." Yugi's smile broadened "She wanted me to tell you. See you later" Yugi said and waved to Bakura. "Yeah, see you later" Bakura said weakly.
Mokuba had just walked in the door to see Kaiba sitting in a chair, mad as a demon out of hell. Mokuba tried to sneak past his brother but Kaiba knew that he had just walked in. "Come here Mokuba." Mokuba got a look of fear on his face, knowing what his brother could do to him. Kaiba was messing with a glass, as Mokuba walked in "Yes, Seto?" He asked weakly. "Why didn't you tell me that Bastet was with you?" Kaiba said angrily as he broke the glass with his bare hand. Mokuba had never seen his brother this mad. Mokuba couldn't say anything he was too afraid. "Mokuba!! Tell me now!" Kaiba shouted. "She told me not to!! I swear it's the truth!" Mokuba shouted. Kaiba looked at his brother and knew he was telling him the truth. "Thank you Mokuba. I'm sorry for getting mad at you" Mokuba calmed down. He then walked and stood next to Kaiba. "It's alright Seto, I would suggest you don't see Bastet until tomorrow. She really needs more time to think." Kaiba nodded knowing his brother was right. "Now lets get your hand banged." It was then, that Kaiba looked at his hand. It was cut from the broken glass, which he broke. "Okay, Mokuba" Kaiba said, and let Mokuba walk him to the bathroom.
-August 10, the next day-
Bastet currently Bast, sat down on the floor. She thought about Kaiba, still not knowing how she felt about him. She knew how he felt for her, but she didn't know and didn't want to see him until she did. Soon Bast
closed her eyes, and a memory long forgotten until now came to her.
Bast walked into a big praying room, where she had been going to for month's since the death of her brother. "Hello, Bast" said the High Priest who looked like Kaiba. "Good afternoon, High Priest" She said, then she knelt down to pray. The High Priest watched her, he felt sorry for her. No one, but her knew what happened to her brother, but she wasn't going to tell anyone, not even him. Bast looked away only with her eyes, at the Priest who had been so kind to her. How can I fall in love with a Priest? She wondered to herself. Yes he had been kind to her and the only one to comfort her besides her friend the Queen, who she was a servant of. Soon Bast felt dizzy, soon she fell over and the Priest caught her "Are you alright Bast?" He asked. She looked at him "Don't worry about me." She coughed. The Priest worried felt her head, and noticed that she was burning with a fever. "My gosh, you have a high fever." He said, then she passed out. The Priest gently carried her to the Queen. "Your Highness, Bast is sick with a fever." The Queen looked much like Giya except that she had long black hair. "She's sick, oh no. Please Priest follow me to her room." She walked to Bast's room, and the Priest followed.
"Lay her on the bed" and the Priest did, "Your Highness, I'll come every day to pray for her." The Queen looked at the Priest. "There is no need to do-" The Priest stopped her in mid-sentence. "I feel like I have to, so please let me, Highness." The Queen smiled and nodded "You may High Priest." The Priest nodded, to his Queen. About three days after she fell ill Bast woke up "Highness, what in the world?" The Queen looked at her friend "You fell ill, and the High Priest took care of you. While you were sick" Bast was shocked to hear this. "He took care of me?" and the Queen nodded. Bast got up out of bed feeling much better, than when she fell ill. She went to the praying room to see the High Priest praying. She walked up and gently touched his shoulders which scared him. He jumped up but relaxed when he saw it was only Bast. "You know you shouldn't do that." She looked down sheepishly down. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." The Priest smiled "It's alright. I want you to come with me" Bast looked up, and nodded. He grabbed her hand walked her up many stairs, until they were in a big room.
She gasped in awe when she saw the room. "This room as a great view of the city, you must love it up here!" She said as she looked out the window. She closed her eyes to feel the wind against her face blowing the blood red spikes of hair around. Then she opened her dark red eyes to look upon the city once more. Soon the Priest stood next to her at the window, "Yes, I do like it up here. It helps me think. And it has helped me in what I've been think about recently." Bast looked up at the Priest "What would that be High Pri-" But was stopped by his hand. "Please call me, Seth" Which shocked her you usually don't call a High Priest by name. But she nodded anyway "Well what would that be, Seth?" Seth smiled, he leaned down and kissed her lips. After she looked at him with wide eyes. "When did you start..... feeling that way about me?" She had to ask. Seth smiled "Ever since I first met you, I just didn't know when to tell you." Bast still shocked but was happy that he felt the same way she did. "Seth!" She shouted and kissed him passionately. Now it was Seth's turn to be shocked, but soon closed his eyes, and wrapped his arms around Bast.
Ever since that day, in the high room as it was now called. Bast and Seth have been lovers, and every day they saw each other. They were much like the Pharaoh and the Queen. But one day the Queen asked Bast to do something for her, she had to accept. Then when the Queen left, Bast walked up to Seth. "Bye Seth, I'll see you later" Seth smiled "Bye" He said in a sexy voice and kissed her. Bast left, Seth prayed for awhile then left for the high room. As soon as he got in, he leaned on the edge of the window. "You don't deserver Bast, High Priest!" Someone shouted. Seth turned to see a man in robes standing in the doorway. "Really, she chose me to be her lover. Not you" Seth said bravely. Then the man, ran and pushed Seth out of the window. Now Seth was falling to his death. Bast....My love. I'm sorry..... He thought. he clasped his hands Oh Ra, if you see fit to put me back with my love, sometime in the future. I wish to be with her someday.... Then he hit the ground hard. Breaking his neck, Bast saw him hit. She dropped what she was carrying and ran to him. "Seth, please don't die..." She cried, and for the first time in her life she cried. And some how, Seth was still able to move his hand to reach up to her face. "Please....don't cry my love..... I will come back to you someday....." And those were his last words.
Bast held onto his hand as he said that, and saw his beautiful blue eyes fade slowly away as he died. He fell limp "Seth!! SETH!!! NO SETH!!!" she cried. The man that had pushed Seth out the window smiled at his work, but was sadden to see Bast like this. The Queen ran out to see, Seth laying dead, and Bast crying. She ran to her friends side "Bast what happened?" She asked. But Bast was too distraught over Seth's death to answer. The Queen looked up at the window to see a man at the edge looking down. He must be the one who push, the High Priest out the window! She thought and she was right. "Come lets go inside Bast." Bast's tears subsided and she nodded. As they walked, the Queen ordered guards to pick up the body and prepare it for Mummification. They did as they were ordered.
A month later, Bast was still distraught over the death of Seth. "My Lord, we must find out who killed the High Priest" The Pharaoh which looked much like Yugi said. "Why my love, she's just a serv-" But was cut short by his wife's anger. "She's just not a servant! She's my best friend! " The Pharaoh knew how serous this was now, and nodded "I shall find out who killed him." The Queen nodded and kissed him.
While Bast walked around saddened, she walked to the prayer room. She knelt down, and put her hands to her side. "I'm sorry, my Lady. But I can't live with out my brother nor my love!" Then she revealed a dagger. She cried, "I'm sorry, my friend. I hope you'll forgive me for what I'm about to do. I also hope the gods forgive me, but I think they will understand." Then she took the dagger in both hand's and stabbed herself in the heart. "My love, I hope to see you soon" Was all she said, and those were her final words she ever spoke.
The Queen looked around looking for Bast. "You? Have you seen Bast around?" She asked another servant girl. The girl thought and said "Yes, I think I saw her in the prayer room, about fifteen minutes ago." The Queen thanked her, and walked to the prayer room, only to be shocked by what she saw. She saw Bast, laying on the floor. She ran up to Bast to see the dagger next to her body. "Bast took her own life.... She couldn't take the pain anymore...no..." The Queen curled into a ball and cried into her knees. Her best friend was know dead, just like Seth and her brother....Geb. The Pharaoh, walked in to see his wife in a ball on the floor "What's wrong, Isis?" Which he rarely called her. "Bast couldn't take it anymore. She took her own life" She cried even more, but this time into the pharaoh's chest. Soon her tears subsided "Please, my Lord get me the symbol of Ankh" The Pharaoh didn't bother asking what she was she was going to do with it. He came back with it, and gave it to her. "Now please leave us, I need to be alone with her body." He shrugged and left, then made sure that no one else went in, or they would have to face her wrath..
The Queen took the symbol, and said some words and, soon a puff of smoke came and when into the brass symbol. "Now Bast, you can be reunited with you love, but only if you find your reincarnated Aibou." And she knew the perfect person to do it, to get Bast's soul into her reincarnated Aibou. Soon she did find the man who killed Seth, that lead to the death of Bast. She punished him by making him live forever until he found Bast's Aibou......
Bast shot up from her sleep. Breathing heavily, "Seth..... Seto..... You did come back to me" She whispered and she cried again. "Now I remember the death of Seth, caused me to start off, like I did. He said he would come back and he did. And Queen Isis assured that. By putting my soul into a brass symbol, for that long. Then the man that killed Seth, placed the symbol on Bastet's neck, putting my soul back into my reincarnated body, and she turned into my Aibou." Bast rocked back and forth, and turned back into Bastet. Then she heard knocking at the door. She walked to the door and looked through the peep-hole. To see it was Kaiba, she could stand it any longer, she flung the door open and latched on to him. She cried into his shirt, Kaiba was shock at the sudden wave of emotion but hugged her anyway. "Don't worry, Bastet I won't leave you.." He whispered in her ear. Him saying that made her feel better. "Don't ever leave me alone, Seto" she whispered, Kaiba held her closer "Don't worry I don't intend to."
Bast was watching from her soul room, she smiled. She was now back with her love and this time no one would separate them again. Soon Bast felt a tap at her shoulders, she turned to see who it was. Her dark red eyes filled with happy tears. "Seth!" She shouted and ran into his arms. His soul was deep with in Kaiba, and didn't come to her until Bastet was in close contact with Kaiba. "My love, I'm glad to see you again." Seth said Bast just moved closer "Please don't ever leave me, again Seth.." Was all she said "I don't intend to, my Bast." Bast smiled and hugged him tighter.
Bastet hugged Kaiba tighter too. Kaiba smiled "I love you Bastet." Bastet smiled "I already know, Seto...." Kaiba was shocked "But how?" Bastet smiled widened "Because Mokuba got you drunk, and you told me... I love you Seto, and I always have, and I always will" Kaiba was shock, and mad at Mokuba but right now he didn't care. For the longest time, they stood there holding each other not daring to let the other go.
A/K: Hey wasn't that sad Yami-kun?

A/K: Don't worry the next chapter won't be so sad.
