Hotaru: *smiles* I love this story.

Yami: *nods*

Hotaru: and this chapter will be chocked full with Yami goodness

Yami: o.O

Hotaru: sorry, my friend dared me to say it.

Yami: ...okay

Hotaru: and this shouldn't be a BAD chapter. But ya know if Yami ends up being a bastard don't get mad. I just like the thought of Yami being a jerk.

Yami: HEY!

Hotaru: sorry Yami-Kun but its true. Besides that you make a good bastard. So say the disclaimer please.

Yami: Hotaru doesn't own anything.

Hotaru: oh don't feel bad Yami-Kun, your still cute.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Yami was sitting on his throne with a servant working on his nails.

"Where in the hell is Seto?" He asked for the ninth time. A slave walked in carrying a tray with a cup on it. He handed the cup to Yami and left. Yami took a sip then spit it out. "You idiot! Are you so stupid that you can't even mix a simple drink?!"

"That temper will get you in trouble some day, my dear Yami" he looked to the doorway and saw Safiya (as a human) and Seto walking in.

"Be silent" he snapped.

"Mmm, I'd watch your tongue if I were you. I happen to be very good friends with Death" she replied calmly.

"Yami, she's the new priestess" Yami winced. He knew that Priests and Priestesses were the real power behind him. Meaning he'd have to answer to her. But wait, she was just a priestess of Bastet right?

"New priestess of what" he asked. She purred as a smile crossed her lips.

"Everything, Yami dear, everything." Yami cursed under his breath. He got up and disappeared into his room. Seto looked at her with an almost confused face but she smiled reassuringly. Her eyes flashed and a drink was floating right next to her.

"He's just being stubborn" she said taking a drink. "He'll get over it."

*~*~* with Yami *~*~*

Yami was really mad about this.

"I refuse to accept this! She can't JUST become a Priestess! There must be something I can do...But what? What could I do that would keep her from giving me orders. Hmm" he sat down and thought to himself. He could have her imprisoned. But imprisoning a god would surely upset the other gods, leaving them to seek revenge on him. Send her away? No, there was no reason for her to go. He rose with excitement as an idea struck him. "Atsu! I must speak with him! Seto!" The tall Priest entered calmly.

"Yes Yami" he asked.

"I need to speak with Atsu, now" Yami said.

"Why" Seto asked.

"It's important" was all Yami could say as a peculiar look filled his eyes. Seto shrugged and left.

"He's a fool for bringing someone like THAT here" he muttered leaving. Yami sat down again with a satisfied smile.

"She'll never see it coming."

*~*~* three hours later *~*~*

Yami had gotten bored and was now having his nails finished when a rather sinister looking man came in. He was dressed in the clothes of a priest but instead of the usual white they were a deep red. His eyes were the same color. (Note: back then, Red was considered evil.) Yami motioned for the girl doing his nails to leave and she did.

"Atsu, I trust this day finds you well" he said.

"As well as to be expected. But tell me, why is the great pharaoh Yami calling upon me?" Atsu asked.

"I have a matter that needs your presence."

"Aw you are speaking of that new priestess, are you not?" Yami was shocked.

"How do you know of her" he asked. Atsu smiled.

"I know a great deal more than that. But shall we get to the point. Why did you send for me" Atsu asked.

"Can you kill a goddess" Yami asked bluntly. Atsu considered this for a moment then a look of understanding crossed his face.

"You want to kill the goddess Bastet? Well, it is possible, but Yami-"

"Can You" Yami Barked.

"Yes." Atsu answered. "For a price."

"I care not what the price is" Yami said. Atsu gave a satisfied smirk.

"That's good. Worry not, my Pharaoh, it shall be done. But it won't be easy; to kill a goddess is a great task." Atsu replied. "I'll need somewhere to work, meals, and somewhere to sleep."

"Done"

"I thank you, pharaoh" Atsu bowed and walked out. He thought quietly to himself 'that fool! For her to be here in this form, surely she's given up her godly position.' He smiled 'but that won't stop me from enjoying the wonderful life I've been given.' Yami sat down with all nervousness out the window. He knew Atsu would do it. Yami had seen for himself what kind of mysterious deaths occurred from Atsu's potions. Not only quiet deaths but ones that made even the strongest of men blanch. The thought of the goddess in pain beyond control made him laugh. A very unsettling, scary as hell, laugh (that sends shivers down MY spine.)

"That girl will pay." He hissed to himself. He walked out to his thrown room where he saw Safiya, much to Seto's distress, sitting on his throne. He gave a roar of anger which scared even Seto. But not Safiya, she just gave him an amused sort of look. "GET OFF!" She smirked at him as she got up. She approached him.

"Pharaoh, I was merely keeping your seat warm" she said. She looked down at him and smiled wider. She loved the fact that she was taller than the boy ruler of all of Egypt.

"Go do something at your temple or whatever. Just leave me the hell alone" he snapped. Now normally such anger displayed to Safiya from ANYONE would lead to a fight. And that look of superiority on Yami's face was just begging to be wiped away. But Safiya just nodded and walked out.

"Yami that wasn't necessary" Seto said with a bit of anger.

"She had no right to be on my thrown! You're not taking her side are you" Yami asked with glare.

"Of course not" Seto said.

"Good. Seto I want you to keep an eye on her, but don't let her see you" Yami said.

"Why?"

"Tell me if she speaks with anyone important." He answered.

"Yes sire" Seto said bowing and exiting.

"How dare she sit on my throne" Yami muttered. "I hope her life ends with pain even the gods can't comprehend!"

Hotaru: *smiling* See Yami isn't a bastard!
