Chibi Bakura: Oh, damnit! Another chapter of Ouiji/Setoek. When do we get back to me!!
AnimeFan: Quit complaining, Baku.
Chibi Bakura: Don't call me that!!!! .
AnimeFan: You know you like it. Lol. Anyway peoples, yes I am now aware that the god Set and Seth are the same god, but just for the hell of the story let's pretend they're not! Let's just say, the humans believe that Set and Seth are the same, but the Mons believe they're two separate entities.
Chibi Seto: This sucks! I can't eat strawberries now without having naughty scenes in my mind! AnimeFan you're a bad baby-sitter!!!
Chibi Yami: I like strawberries, ever since the last chapter I can't stop eating them. ^-^
Chibi Seto: O_O
AnimeFan: We're going to be on this subject for a very long time, aren't we. -__-'

Chapter 4 - Faithless Love
Two weeks have passed since the mage, Setoek, came into the prince's life. In all that time, all he had been able to get the brunette to do was sleep with him. But he should be fighting! Training for the Shadow Tournament!! Why didn't the prince just force him to train, beat him for refusing, or at least something to get the mage to be obedient! Yet he had done nothing but pity the blue-eyed boy and spoil him! Ouiji huffed annoyed and poked a bit more at his food. He just couldn't understand what these feelings for the magician were. Pity, awe, definitely not love! Is there something wrong, my son? Ouiji looked up from his food to force a smile towards his father, Nothings wrong, father. Just a little frustrated, that's all. Ramset nodded and turned to continue his conversation with Ouiji's older brother Malik.
Ouiji sighed and pushed his plate of food away. He wasn't really hungry that morning. His sister, Isis, gave him a slightly worried look but he waved good-bye and gave her a reassuring look. Heh, I guess you humans are heartless bastards after all. Those words, spoken from his mage's lips, why did they bother him so much? Even now, four days later, he couldn't get those words out of his mind. They haunted him every night he lay there, watching the brunette sleep. Did Setoek really believe that he was heartless? Was he? Oh! Why should I care! He's just a disobedient monster that needs to be beat a few times! And that's exactly what I'm going to do right now. The prince hastened his pace, crossing the gardens on his way to Setoek's room.
He burst through door in his usual manner and stopped dead in his tracks as his heart jumped a beat. Setoek was soaked from a morning shower, the crystal droplets caressing his perfect form as they slid down to drip on the ground, and he was struggling to pull on his pants. It was hard for the mage to get used to pants, since all other mage's in his clan wore tights, armor, and silk robes. Ouiji continued to stand, staring at the mage. Why...oh why did this always happen when he looked at his love slave!? Setoek seemed unfazed at his intrusion, already getting used to the prince not knocking or announcing his presence, Morning, Master Ouiji. Ouiji sighed and gave the brunette a soft smile before remembering what he had come to do.
Straitening his black robe, Ouiji put a serious look on and walked over to help the brunette with the pants, You know, Setoek. You don't have to wear these if you don't want to. The mage blinked at him, slightly surprised, then smiled, But I like them, master. They're comfortable, it's just they're hell to get on! He couldn't help but laugh at this comment and he noticed a slight blush creep across the mage's face. Oh damnit! Stop it, stop it! What the hell is wrong with me, I'm here to force some obedience into him not laugh at his cute antics! Woah! Did I just say cute, I mean foolish antics, yeah. Damnit. Mage, we need to talk about your...well...tendancy to forget your place in this world. Setoek blinked as he pulled his shirt on and buttoned it to his normal fashion, I know where my place is master. It's here in the palace with you.
The tri-haired prince frowned and crossed his arms, Well...yes...but that's not what I meant. The Shadow Tournament is going to take place soon and I need you to be among my duelers. It's necessary that you start training and- I'm not going to fight. You can make me train but I won't fight in the tournament. I'll just let myself be knocked out, Setoek stated as he brushed out his hair. Ouiji pursed his lips as anger swelled up inside of him. Taking a deep breath, he turned Setoek around to look at him, It's not a matter of what you want. The reason I asked father to let me have you was because I need a strong monster for the tournament. Now, if you can't be that strong monster, then I'll just have to announce my need to replace you. Ouiji waited for the reaction he was looking for, but instead the rebellious glint flashed through his mage's eyes once again and the other boy stiffened, Then call up your messenger, you'll need all the time you can get to train your new toy!
Setoek spat at the word toy and got to his feet to slip on his gloves with shaky hands. Ouiji was once again taken back by the mage's sudden change in personality. He's worse then a Change of Heart monster. One minute he's a curious youth, easily bent to what you will him and then he suddenly becomes an arrogant, risky young man that's not afraid of anything. Oh Ra, he's full of surprises. Listen here, I will call for a new mage! I'm not joking, slave. And your whole clan will be captured and thrown into the dungeons for your disobedience! Setoek scowled and straitened himself to his full height, crossing his arms with a stubborn glare that practically shouted try me. Ouiji, in his searing anger, noticed out of the corner of his eye that the orb his slave wore around the neck was glowing. It had done the same thing the last time his mage went stubborn on him. You and your worthless family can do whatever they want to do, but you're all so fucked up this kingdom will fall into ruin if the damn war doesn't do it in now!
That comment from the brunette was the last slice on Ouiji's already shredded self-control. He brought his hand hard across the mage's face, the force causing Setoek's head to jerk sideways with the slap and him to stumble over onto the bed. Ouiji smiled satisfied with himself, until Setoek looked up at him with a hand rested to his reddened cheek. The prince's satisfaction was gone as fast as it had come when he looked into those blue depths, pain and fear wavering in them along with tears threatening to fall. Ouiji stood there frozen, unable to understand the pain in his own chest. Setoek pushed himself off the bed, running past the prince and out of the room. Well, that went well. Before he new it, Ouiji had turned to run after the mage.
Setoek ran out of the palace and down to the marketplace, Ouiji hot on his heels though he new the mage hadn't noticed him following. He continued to follow the brunette, ignoring the stares from the people around him. He stopped and hid behind a crate as Setoek stopped and started pounding on a plain-looking door. After a while, the door opened and a blonde-haired man stepped out with a curious and wary look plain on his face. The prince narrowed his eyes as his mage threw himself at the carmel-eyed youth and started to visibly cry in his shoulder. The man rubbed Setoek's back soothingly and led him into the house, closing the door behind him. Ouiji frowned and stood up to go to the door when two other people, a Change of Heart and an old lady walked up to the same door and knocked first three times, then two, then four with long pauses in between. The door opened and the two women walked on in without inspection. A little while later another man came to the door and did the same exact thing as the ladies.
Ouiji began to get very curious about this strange code they seemed to be using and also who the blonde was that his mage had clinged to. Standing up and brushing of the sand, he made his way over to the door, proceeding in using the strange knocking code. He waited but the door didn't open. So he leaned against it to try and hear what was going on inside and the door was suddenly opened. Ouiji struggled to keep his balance and stumbled into the house, the door immediately closing behind him. Once he regained his posture he stared around curiously. The room was filled with at least twelve or thirteen individuals, some human and others mons. They were all staring at him in shock and Ouiji noticed that one sitting on a chair with a bunch of people around him was his mage, Setoek. Well, I think we peoples need a new code. It seems ta attract a little too much attention. Either that, or Setoek's master is jus about as curious as him.
Ouiji looked over to the youth who had spoke and recognized him as the blonde his mage had clinged to. Suddenly, everything dawned on him. He had stumbled straight into a meeting off the rumored rebels, and his mage was one of them!! Speaking of his mage, Setoek was blinking at him in surprise, face still wet with tears. Suddenly, the shock had passed and the rebels had burst into panicked chatter.
Ra be cursed us! The pharaoh's son, he's found are hideout!!!
What are we to do!!?
It's the mage! He must of told the prince about are whereabouts and the code! I knew it wasn't smart to trust him!!
Awe, damnit people! Will ya all shut up about that! Why do ya keep blamin Setoek for every little bad thing. This is why the Rebellion is so small now-a-days, cause no one trusts anyone! The blonde snapped and rested a comforting hand on the still shocked mage. Ouiji glared at the carmel-eyed boy, a strange feeling coming over him as he watched the little exchange of affection towards HIS mage. Jono! You're always sticking up for him. This is the prince, Ramset's son! What will we do about this, it's over for are group! The Change of Heart snapped at the blonde, Jono, and gestured towards the prince. Ouiji didn't like this at all, being talked about as if he wasn't even in the room.
Yes, Jono! Leta's right, what are we going to do!?
Face it people, it's the dungeon for us.
We kill him, that's what we do. The prince will surely turn us over to his father! We kill him then make it look like it was done by a couple of cutthroats who had been passing through town looking for some quick gold!
The group broke into murmurs of approval and Ouiji tensed himself, aware that these people were deciding his fate right before him. NO! No, you can't kill him! I won't let you do that!! Ouiji's eyes widened as Setoek jumped from his seat and threw his arms around him protectively. His shock was shared by the other rebels, and the prince watched as Jono inched a few feet towards Setoek and placed a hand timidly on his shoulder, Setoek, there's no other way. Besides, before we could understand your concern for the prince, but now!? He hurt you didn't he? What makes you think that that slap was it, he'll no doubt continue until he becomes an abusive master like all the others out there.
Setoek shook his head and held the shocked boy closer to him, I don't care. I can't let you kill him. Please, Jono. You're my friend, you should understand above all the others. Please, don't kill my master. Jono frowned and turned towards the other rebels, obviously not happy with how this event was turning out. Ouiji relaxed a little, still shocked that his mage, Setoek, was one of the rebels! Could that mean, had Setoek been spying on him? Telling these fools everything he had learned inside the castle!?
Well, we could make the prince swear to keep quiet about this. If he swears on the symbol of Ra, the all seeing eye, he won't be able to break it without angering Amon-Ra himself. That would turn out bad so he'd be forced to keep quiet. Everyone seemed to agree with the old women's suggestion. Some of them were even wondering why they hadn't thought about that in the first place. Setoek let go of Ouiji hesitantly and let out a relieved sigh, smiling at them all for understanding whatever he had hoped they'd understand. Ouiji was still gaping at his mage, upset with his mage for being among these vermin, for no doubt spying on him and lying!! All right, then. Well, your majesty, you've got a choice. Swear to keep your yap shut or die at the blade of the Flameswordman here. Ouiji glared at them all, making sure to darken it at his mage before nodding, Fine! I'll swear right here on the Puzzle of Ra himself! I won't tell anyone about this, not even my father.
