The Monarch and the Innocent
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- *-*-*-*-*-
"Prince Bel Um Fal, the Pharaoh wishes to see you."
Yami was following Simon Muran to the throne room. He wasn't really walking with him out of conscience; he had questions in his mind that would still remain unanswered. Where did Yugi come from? Why and how did he come here? How would Yugi remain concealed, and what would Yami do if they found him? He wanted to give them all a good speculation, but what if it was wrong? He was so wrapped up in questions that he didn't pay attention to Simon Muran's voice, and he didn't want to. He was focusing on one thing: Yugi's existence. An innocent child's life was at stake and saving him would be a hard task. He couldn't go beyond the power of his father in his entire life; how could he now?
They walked past the dark, golden walls of hieroglyphics and old sculptures of people. The sunlight hardly touched the walls at all, and it was almost invisible. The two people walked into the vast throne room and sauntered to the Pharaoh. His face was being covered by shadows; the sight of his face was extremely vague. Simon Muran bowed to the Pharaoh, as if his power was anything but frail; to him, it was more than omnipotent. Yami just stared at his father. He had no emotion in his face at all; it was like a blank void. The Pharaoh called him in because he was worried about him. Yami was unusually quiet and he stayed in his room a lot. This was rather peculiar because he always had something to say, and 'timid' was never a part of his personality.
"Bel Um Fal, Simon Muran and I noticed that you were awfully quiet and you stay in your room more often. Are you all right?"
Yami nodded his head in agreement. He didn't say a word and he stood in calm.
"Are you sure??"
Yami nodded once again, but even more silently.
"Very well. Bel Um Fal, I need you to do a small task for me. I need you to go to the Shrine of Glory and the Forest Shrine and check it out. If you see anything weird, come back and report it to me. Can you do it?"
Yami nodded once again and left the palace. The throne room was as silent as he was.

"Vwoom! Bang! Cwash! And Dawk Magician wins agains' evil Celtic Gawdian! What's this?? It's the mean Fewal Imp! And Dawk Magician wins again! Hooway! Cheese for evwyone!"
It was nighttime and Yugi was playing with his Dark Magician Plush and his two duel monster key chains. He hugged his Dark Magician again; Yugi was full of hugs that day! Once again, the Dark Magician 'saved the world', but he really got bored of it. He was playing this game all day. Yugi found one of Yami's study books and began to flip through the pages filled with hieroglyphs.
(A/n: Did they even have books back then?? I wasn't really sure in all. Wait a minute. . . If they had books, then they wouldn't be writing on the walls! I'm confusing myself.)
Yugi was only interested in the drawings. They began to stir up his curiosity. Maybe he could make another adventure with it? As soon as he picked up Dark Magician, he heard approaching footsteps coming in his direction. He darted under the covers and hid there. When he took a small peep at the person who walked in, His eyes lit up in delight. It was Yami! Yugi raced from under the bed sheets and gave Yami a hug. He was filled with hugs that day, and he couldn't stop giving them.
"Yami!"
"Hello Yugi. Are you hungry?"
"Yes! And Dawk Magician says Tanks!"
"I'll be back with food. Don't leave this room, okay?"
"Otay!"
Yami left the room and came back with food. After Yugi ate his dinner, it was time for bed. Yami found something that Yugi could sleep on besides his bed. It was a small bed for Yugi and it came with silver silk sheets. They were both going to bed at the same time.
"Goodnight, Yugi."
"G'night Yami! And Dawk Magician says g'night!"
Yami couldn't help but chuckle at Yugi's famous remark. Besides, It sounded adorable.
"Well, tell him that I said goodnight."
"Otay!"
They fell asleep. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*--*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- *-*-*--*-*
Yugi was awake, shaking under his covers; this was more horrible than Yugi could ever imagine. The rain began to pour harder, lightning struck every second, and the thunder roared like it was a monstrous beast. Yugi flinched every time he heard that low rumbling noise. Then, this really loud one came around and Yugi fled for his life under Yami's golden covers. Yami woke up startled.
"What is it Yugi?"
Yugi just hugged on to Yami and never let go. He was shaking and crying and he sobbed a little bit. It hurt Yami badly to see Yugi crying; it felt like arrows piecing into his heart.
"Are you afraid of lightning?"
Yugi nodded slowly. Yami understood that most children are afraid of lightning, and he was too. He began to gently rub his back and held him closer.
"Everything is going to be okay now. I'm right here. . ." Yami whispered. His voice was like a gentle spring breeze.
"Y-Yami. . ." Yugi cooed.
"You don't have to worry anymore. If you are truly that afraid of lightning, then you can sleep with me." Yami said.
"Otay."
Yami began to lie back down and Yugi slipped under the covers even more. He snuggled closer to Yami and he went to sleep, holding his Dark Magician. Whenever he was around Yami, he felt as if he was in the safest shelter ever. He wanted to keep it that way. But at the door less entrance of Yami's bedroom was even more danger. Simon Muran was standing there in the shadows, watching the entire time. He was as quiet as a mouse and still as a statue, and he blended in with the darkness. His eyes of cerulean narrowed.
"That child. . .he must be the reason the prince was acting so strangely; he is making the prince too frail with weakness. He has to be stopped at all costs!"
Simon Muran went to go tell the Pharaoh of what he saw. Yugi's life was just put in danger.
