The Monarch and the Innocent
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- *-*-*-*-*
The morning was just as blissful as the night. The sun began to bring its pleasant rays of gentle light upon the palace, and the children at play gave their laughter full of mirth to the hearts of the weary; their laughter would prolong the youth in the elderly. The birds filled the earth with songs told by many generations of peace. Peace had surrounded the sands of Egypt and its neighbors; the people had set aside their differences and cherished the precious gift of life as unison. In the midst of the palace, a pair of strong crimson eyes had revealed themselves. This young man had just awakened from hard tasks at hand the day before. At first he didn't want to get up, but he knew he had to. He sat up and walked out of bed on the side he was facing, and proceeded for another hard day. He changed his clothes to ancient black clothing and he finished his 'masterpiece' with a mauve colored cape.
"Today is going to be a good day. . . I hope."
When he began to remove his bed sheets to give to his helper, Little Yugi was revealed. He was slowly opening his eyes of a soft purple or amethyst; the light was blinding him, so he could not see the young adult.
"What in Ra's name!? Who are you!?"
"Daddy no know me?? My name Yugi, 'member?"
"What??"
"Daddy no 'member me?"
"What are you talking about?? I'm not your. . ."
Yugi was shocked. Could this person not be his father? This person was the only one he trusted until now. Little Yugi didn't know whether to trust him or not in this moment. The decision was so hard that his eyes began to fill with tears. The young man quickly noticed this.
"Look, I'm sorry I yelled at you. You just kind of scared me a little bit. Will you forgive me?"
He really didn't want to say that last line, but what else could he do? Yugi thought about it and smiled a little. He hugged the teenager who carried most of his features.
"Otay! I 'give you!"
Suddenly, they both heard the sound of footsteps get louder, and louder, and louder. The young man shoved him in the golden bed sheets, and stood in front of it. A man in strange clothing walked into this room; most of his face was covered and he held a two colored cane in his hand.
"Um, hi Simon Muran! I never thought that you would come here out of all places!" He said, giving a forced smile.
"My prince, you know that I come here every morning! Wait. . . what is behind you?"
"Nothing! N-Nothing at all!"
"I know when you're hiding something from me, and you're hiding something from me. What are you hiding?"
"I said I was hiding nothing!"
Simon Muran walked to behind the prince and removed the bed sheets. There was nothing there.
"Hmmm. . . That's funny. I thought you were hiding something."
"Ha ha, I got you again!" He chuckled nervously. Where was Yugi??
"Ha. Ha. Very funny. Anyway, you are going to be Pharaoh, Prince Bel Um Fal. You need to start doing a little bit better at your duties as a prince! Quite frankly, I'm embarrassed at your effort!"
"I know. I'll try to try harder."
As soon as Simon Muran left, the prince immediately began to search for Little Yugi; he was certain he stuffed him in the golden covers! Just when he was about to give up, he felt a small tug on his cape. He turned around, and Yugi was standing right there holding his Dark Magician.
"Don't scare me like that!!! If Simon Muran saw you, you would have been taken away and executed! Where were you anyway?"
"Under purwple blankie!"
"Purple blanket?? Oh, my cape. But don't do that! I don't want you to be killed!"
"Dawk Magician pwotects me!"
"Dark Magician??"
Yugi showed him his plush and held it tightly again. The prince stood there in awe; he had never seen anything like it. Yugi began to hug it a little bit tighter and looked at the prince with the biggest, most kawaii eyes in the world. They seemed to glisten in the sunlight. Then he began to reach out to the prince, and he understood it perfectly. He picked him up and held him very gently in his arms; time seemed to freeze at that moment.
"So your name is Yugi, am I right?"
Yugi nodded, and held his 'guardian' close to him.
"What am I going to do? If they find you here, then they will slaughter you. But I can't keep you a secret forever! Well, I guess I should start on your clothes. I mean, what are you dressed as?"
Yami carried Little Yugi to a secret place he had for remembering. He had things here from ever since he was two years old. He began to look for some clothes for Yugi.
"Aha! I found something!"
It was the same thing he was wearing, only a lot smaller. He also found some armlets and bracelets that could fit Yugi. They were made of gold and they sparkled in the light. He helped him put it on, and they were matching exactly. He even found him a mauve cape to go with it.
"Wow! I look like you, Pwince Bel Um Fal!"
"Please, don't call me that. It makes me seem like I'm an evil ruler or something. Call me Yami."
"Yami??"
"Yes. Call me that."
"Otay Yami! And Dawk Magician says hi!"
"Okay. Listen very carefully Yugi. Do NOT leave this room for any reason, unless I say so. If you leave, it can cost you your life! Understand?"
"Otay! I no leave!"
"Good. I have to go into the throne room. I'll be back, and I mean it."
"Yami go?"
"Yes. But I will be checking on you every now and then. And if you hear someone about to pass the door, hide in my covers."
"Otay! And Dawk Magician says Bye!"
Yami left to talk to his father in the throne room.
