"What did you say?" Seth looked at Isis in disbelief.

"I….The baby…..my baby….is yours….." Isis stuttered.

Seth stood there. Isis felt uncomfortable at his silence. Finally, Seth shook his head.

"You're lying. I don't know what kind of joke you're trying to pull, but it doesn't work."

"No. Seth. I'm not!" Isis protested.

"Don't call me Seth!" Seth snapped, " My name is Aten. And as far as I'm concern, you're a stranger to me…..and so is your dead baby!"

Seth stormed away, not before he heard Isis said,

"You can call yourself whatever you want, but I know it in my heard that you're Seth. You're the high priest of Egypt, and the father of this baby! You can deny it, but you know that it's the truth!"

---------------

Aten was angry. He felt hot in his body. He wanted to punch something. Anything.

It was absurd. That woman was a total stranger to him.

'How can she said that her baby is his?'

He had never met such a liar in his life. She was mad.

'Maybe she's confused. Losing the baby got her that way.' he said to himself.

Still, he couldn't help but notice the way she seemed to know exactly who he is.

When he first met her, she already called him 'Seth'. That name, it was familiar to him.

'Still, she might have him confuse with someone else'

'However, she might also be telling the truth. After all, he didn't exactly have the best memory of who he is'

Aten continued to debate within himself. He knew that as strange as Isis sounded, she might be telling him the truth. Still, he was mad at her. He didn't know the exact reason for being mad at her, but he's mad at her.

Someone walked up to him. Aten turned around. It was Teana. He smiled. He was glad to see her.

"Look like you're having trouble in your mind," she smiled, " care to share it with me?"

Aten shook his head. He didn't want to tell her what was going on in Isis's room.

"Why not? I'm your wife. It's my job to help you…"

Aten frowned at the sentence. If Teana was his wife and what Isis told him was the truth, then he would be considered as an adulterer.

"Come on," Teana pleaded.

"No…"

"Why not?"

"Because….just because…."

"Just because isn't going to cut it you know…"

Aten gave up to Teana's pleading.

"Alright…." He sighed, " I went to Isis's room. And she claimed to know who I was.."

"What do you mean? Everybody know who you are. You're Aten, my husband."

"No. She said that she know who I was before I met you. She called me Seth…"

Teana laughed," she said that? Come on, how do you know that she was even telling the truth. Beside, she might confused you for someone else. After all, she did lose her baby."

"That's the problem. She also said that the baby's mine."

Teana turned to look at Aten. Her face was serious.

"What?"

"She said that the baby's mine."

Teana shook her head," she's lying. There's no way that you could be the father of that baby. You don't even know her! You told me that you've never met her in your life."

"That's the point," Aten looked at his wife," I don't know if I had met her before in my life. She seemed to know exactly who I was. She said that I was the high priest of Egypt. And….I feel like she's telling the truth."

"What? How could you even said that? Do you actually think that she's telling the truth?"

"I don't know!" Aten yelled.

"Look, I know. She's lying. She said that the you're the high priest, Seth. But I know the high priest Seth. It was rumor that he was dead. Killed during a battle against the army up north."

"What?"

"I'm telling you the truth. Every body knows that during the battle against the enemy, Seth wasn't able to hold off the enemy. He was killed. That's why Egypt's being taken over right now. Our pharaoh had to leave the palace. Beside, if you're the high priest, then you're not supposed to have any girlfriend anyway. It was against the law of Egypt of priest or priestess to be having a relationship. I don't think that you would break that law for anyone."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes I'm sure."

"Then she's lying…."

"I think so. Why don't we go and have a talk with her?" Teana smiled. She felt like she had won Aten over. Whatever Isis had told him was invalid. Seth was dead. And there's no way that she's going to let Isis take Aten away from him.

-------------------

Isis was packing up. She didn't feel like staying around here anymore. If she couldn't convince Seth that she's telling the truth, then there's no reason for her to say around.

She felt stupid. She had left everything, her power, her husband, Egypt, to search for Seth. And it turned out that he didn't even remember who she was.

She felt like stabbing her self. Although Isis wasn't the one who embrace the idea of self suicide, she's considering it.

She had lost everything. Her brother's fighting against her husband. Her baby's dead. Seth, or rather, Aten, didn't even recognize her.

Isis didn't feel like fighting anymore. She had fought for all of her life for happiness, but it never came. What's the point of fighting when in the end it doesn't even matter?

A knock came upon the door. Aten and Teana stepped in. She didn't even bother to pretend to smile. She's tired of acting nice to other people.

"You're leaving?" Teana asked.

"Yeah."

"But you're not well."

Isis shrugged,"whatever…."

She knew that she was acting like a cold bitch. But it doesn't matter. When she leave, no one will remember her anyway.

Teana recognize this immediately.

"Isis, look, we have to talk….."

Isis sighed. She didn't even remember why she agreed to talk to Aten and Teana in the first place. She felt odd seeing them together.

Isis had to admit. She was jealous.

She knew that it wasn't his fault that he forgot about her and fell in love with someone else, but still. He didn't even remember a single fact about her?

It made Isis felt like what she had worked for over the years was wasted.

"Isis, I know how you feel. It hurts to lose your baby…" Teana comforted.

"No you don't. You've never lose a baby before in your life, so you wouldn't know what it feels like."

Teana felt like Isis had stabbed her.

"I'm sorry."

"Yeah, whatever…."

Aten sensed the tension between the two women.

"Look Isis, we're sorry. But what you told me… it was wrong. I'm not Seth. The high priest of Egypt's dead. Everybody knows that." Aten spoke up

"Yes. He was killed during the battle against the raider up north…I don't think that you know this but even our pharaoh had to leave the palace."

Isis laughed. She never laughed harder in her life. Teana and Aten was confused.

"Don't you think I know that?" Isis laughed. She was mad. She knew that she was mad. Isis didn't care. She didn't plan to stay around here anyway, so it doesn't matter if everyone think she's mad.

"I knew exactly what's going on around Egypt," Isis continued," Trust me. I'm not lying. You people might think that I'm crazy because my baby's dead, but I'm not. I witnessed first-handed what's going around Egypt."

Teana and Aten looked at Isis confusingly.

"I was there when the news about the battle of the high priest first reached Egypt. I was there when the pharaoh leave the palace. I was there to see exactly who the enemy is……" Isis stopped. Tears was about to fall on her cheek but she managed to stopped it. There's no way that Isis's going to cry in front of anyone.

"But how could it be?" Aten asked," how could you know everything?"

"Because…..because I'm the queen of Egypt." Isis answered.

Teana stared at the woman in front of her. Everything that Isis told her seemed so absurd.

"What?"

"I'm the queen of Egypt. If you claimed to know so much about Egypt, then you'll know about the queen Isis. I'm that one. I was with the pharaoh, Yugi, when we left the palace in refuge. However, I left him during the escape and ran into our enemy, my brother. He let me leave and I found him," she pointed at Aten," the reason why I left everything in the first place."

A silence broke out. Teana and Aten was having hard time absorbing the news. Isis was..whatever. She didn't care for anything anymore.

"There's now way…" Teana shook her head…

"You're right. Everything I had said seemed absurd. You have no reason to believe me. But I think that I can convince you….." she pulled out her millenium tauk.

Isis didn't feel like resorting to the tauk that Yugi gave her. The tauk gave her nothing but bad news. However, she had nothing to lose now.

The millenium tauk shone brightly. Aten remembered the similar light that he saw during Pegasus's battle.

The three found themselves in a strange place. Isis knew the place exactly. It was the palace.

"Where's this place?" Aten asked.

"Our past. The palace…."

The millenium tauk showed an image of two people standing together. The three people recognized immediately the couple. It was Isis and Seth.

The tauk goes on further to show more images of the past, the past when the kingdom first heard the news about the battle, the past when she and Yugi ran away from the palace, the past when she first meet Malik….

Finally, the tauk stopped glowing. Isis, Teana, and Aten founded themselves back in the village.

Isis walked away. She felt like she had proved her honesty. She didn't want to fight for Aten anymore

'If he's happy with Teana, then let it be…..'

Teana was worried. After what she and Aten saw, it was clearly that Isis was telling the truth. And if Isis was telling the truth…..

Teana looked at Isis. She hated that woman.

"You might showed us some mumble jumble images, but that doesn't prove anything," Teana yelled. She had never yelled at anyone in her life. But there's no way that she going to let Aten go.

"You can believe whatever you want," Isis looked at Teana, and walked away.

An: I'm still debating on the ending. I don't know how it should end. Give me some suggestion. I'll post up the ending this Friday. And sorry for the late update. I was sick for 3 weeks ( I'm still sick now) so I couldn't be able to do anything.
