Chapter One

K: Some people guessed right on who's the pharaoh. And I didn't tell who the others were because I wanted to leave people guessing.

Yami: Is it me?

K: No it's Weevil!

Yami: O___O

Yugi: Liar!

K: I know.

Yami: *sighs in relief*

K: I hate Weevil he's mean, ugly and has a funny voice.

Yami: Yeah. Stupid guy threw away my aibou's Exodia cards.

Yugi: We can still win without them.

Yami: ^__^ You're right.

K: Umm… read please. PLEASE!

Y+Y: O___o

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The teen looked up, "My name's Yami."

"Nice to meet you Yami. You may call me…Rex (Yugi: Liar! Yami: Rex?! K: I'm kidding sheesh.) …Yugi." (Yugi: Much better. Yami: Wait. I'm the slave? *Faints* K: …)

Yami was shocked. Why would the pharaoh of Egypt let him a lowly slave worker call him by his birth name?

Yugi sat down beside him looking at him intently. "You look so much like me."

Yami blinked, "Yeah it seems I do, pharaoh."

"Just Yugi."

"Yugi," Yami felt awkward saying that name but if felt nice saying it.

Yugi looked down at the ground, "I'm sorry about the guards and the stupid rule."

"What rule?" Yami frowned, wouldn't he already know all the rules in Egypt.

"The council made it up saying they needed more slaves and that I was too young to make any decisions against it," Yugi looked away sheepishly, "and since you were caught by the guards…"

"I… see…" Yami glared at the floor. Getting caught by guards and then become slaves what a stupid rule.

"I'm sorry but I'll try not to let them umm… molest you and the others," Yugi said sincerely.

Yami's eyes softened, "Why are you nice to me?"

Yugi shrugged, "Why shouldn't I be? Is it because the rumors I've been hearing?"

Yami was silent. He never thought the pharaoh would act like this and look so cute it was nothing like the rumors. Yami's eyes widen, 'If he ever knew that I thought that he'd surely cut my head off.'

Yugi had an amused smile on his lips. "I know that look."

Yami stared at the little pharaoh.

"It's the look that says I'm going to be-head you because you think I look cute," Yugi said still smiling.

"How do you know?" Yami asked wryly.

"Oh I get it all the time. Don't worry I'd never do that. No matter what rumors say I'm not like that," Yugi stood up and turned holding a hand to Yami a sign that he should take it.

Yami looked at the hand then slowly reached to grab it then his eyes bulged out when Yugi pulled him and ran, dragging him.

Yami finally got to his feet running with Yugi to the council room.

When they arrived they could hear arguing in it.

"You can't just make us your slaves," a gruff voice argued.

"But we can rules are rules," said a cocky old one.

Yugi shook his head. 'Why do they make up such idiotic rules. Hentais.'

"I bet the pharaoh made that stupid rule!"

"No. The council did the pharaoh would never make such a rule, and the council doesn't trust him to make rules because they think he's too young," said a softer voice.

"Ahem!"

The occupants in the room turned to the door and saw Yugi who had his hands on his hips.

"Ah… my pharaoh," said one of the men.

Yugi raised a hand and everyone was silent, Yami was leaning against the wall outside listening.

"Please leave I would like to talk with this group," Yugi said.

"But…"

Yugi shook his head, "Leave. Ryou, Jounouchi and Mai can stay and 'watch' me."

The five councilmen hesitated but slowly took their leave after a glance at the lovely men and female.

"I hate those guys they are such pervert minded freaks," the guard called Jounouchi said, sitting in a seat.

Yugi sighed, "I know but they were my father's 'loyal' council and I promised to not replace them unless something serious happens."

"Loyal my ass."

"Jounouchi…" Yugi warned.

Jounouchi grinned sheepishly, "Sorry Yug."

The groups expected Yugi to scream at his guard and send him to be executed but were surprised when Yugi calmly went to the head of the table and took a seat.

"It's okay Jounouchi-kun. Yami you may come in if you like."

All except Yugi turned to the door and saw Yami slowly walk in and join his group.

"We're glad you're okay Yami," the brown-haired girl said.

Yami just nodded then turned to the pharaoh.

"Take a seat," Yugi gestured.

"Why should we listen to you?" glared the white haired man that looked a lot like the high priest.

Yugi blinked, "Well you must be tired."

Yami surprised his group by taking a seat next to Yugi. Before they were captured he would usually say he would never listen to the pharaoh's orders.

Yugi smiled at Yami then to the small group, who slowly took a seat.

"So…" Yugi leaned his head on his hands with his elbows on the table, "I am terribly sorry about this."

The brunette with blue eyes snorted, "Right… and making us your slaves."

"Do not speak to Yugi in such a manner," Ryou said also taking a seat next to Yugi.

"It's quite alright Ryou I already know about the little rumors. I think we should introduce ourselves first," Yugi said.

The group looked away, Yami sighed and began to speak, "You already know my name is Yami. The brunette with blue eyes is Seto, Anzu is the girl and Bakura is the high priest look alike." (Yugi: I thought Jounouchi was going to be the high priest since Seto was one. K: Well I couldn't see Jounouchi as the priest type. Yugi: Oh.)

Bakura snorted.

"Okay. You may call me Yugi."

The group gave Yugi the same expression Yami did awhile ago.

Yugi simply rolled his eyes and continued, "My high priest Ryou, my bodyguard Jounouchi and Mai our general."

Bakura burst out laughing, "A woman! A general!"

Mai narrowed her eyes, hand on her sword, but a look from Yugi made her change her mind.

Yugi looked at Bakura; "Mai is an excellent fighter and strategist. I don't care if she is female or male. She's better than most men I've seen."

Mai grunted and folded her arms over her chest.

"I'm truly sorry about all this," Yugi repeated from the problem before, head bowed.

Everyone was silent unsure of what to say and not expecting a pharaoh like this. They expected someone big, strong and giving out orders of anything he desired not a petite, cute child that was saying sorry to lowly soon-to-be slaves.

Yugi looked up when he felt a hand on his shoulder. Yami gave him a small uneasy smile, which he returned with his.

"I think we should retire to our chambers sire," Ryou said seeing that it was dark already.

Yugi nodded then blushed, "We don't have that many rooms since the rest of the servant are in them. I guess we have to share." (K: Share hehehehe. Yugi: *rolls eyes*)

"Share?! With who?!" Bakura demanded.

Yugi looked at Bakura then Ryou then back.

Bakura shook his head, "No way!" But Ryou had already took his arm and dragged him out the room.

Yugi stifled a giggle, "I think Ryou likes him." Everyone else sweatdropped at the remark and when they heard a crash and cursing.

Mai sighed then stood up, "I'll take Anzu to my chambers," she then winked at Anzu who blushed, following Mai.

Jounouchi sighed then gestured for Seto to follow him, who reluctantly agreed.

Yami and Yugi were alone in the dimly lit room.

"Umm…" Yugi blushed, "I guess you can share my chambers."

"Yeah…" Yami said cheeks also tinted pink.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"I'll sleep on the floor," Yami suggested.

"Oh I couldn't do that to you. I'll sleep on the floor," Yugi said politely.

"No you're the pharaoh anyway it wouldn't look good."

"But no one is ever allowed in here so they wouldn't know."

Yami tried to think of an excuse not wanting the innocent pharaoh to sleep on the floor. "Umm, the bed is big enough."

Yugi blushed, "Uh… I guess…"

They had both dressed into evening gowns Yami was wearing black silk clothing Yugi let him use and Yugi wore dark blue ones. They both timidly crawled into the bed.

It was hard to fall asleep with some one you hardly know in the same bed but they eventually fell asleep unbeknownst to them they moved closer in their slumbering state, so expect screaming or blushing in the morning.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Yugi: I wouldn't scream. Blush yes. Scream no.

Yami: *still passed out*

K: Sheesh. So what if he's not pharaoh.

Yugi: Well he's just to use to it I guess.

K: Maybe. I've only read 2 fics where Yugi's a pharaoh and that's less then Seto or Bakura being the pharaoh and I think that's odd.

Yugi: I like the arrangements.

K: Of course you do even when you don't boss people when you could.

Yugi: I wouldn't want to.

K: Well help Yami wake up.

Yugi: Oh I will. *sly grin then carries Yami to a room*

K: ………R&R.
