Chapter Eight
Jazella sat in her room, fuming. 'Why didn't Yami punish Yugi for running away? Ra, that boy is so distracting! I should kill him right now!'
Jazella actually considered doing this, until she imagined what Yami would be like if he found out. She sighed. 'No way Yami'll let me get away with this. It's almost as if he actually cares for Yugi the way he's acting nowadays. But that's impossible! He vowed his only love would be Anzu, and if it's true he loves a lowly servant, he broke his pledge!'
The high priestess suddenly had an idea. Slowly, her usual smirk came to her face as she thought about what she would do. 'If Yami won't let me hurt Yugi physically, I'll get him spiritually. I can wound his soul, and that'll be the best pain-infliction of all!'
With that in mind, Jazella left.
************************
The next morning, Yugi woke up very tired. He had cried himself to sleep and wasn't feeling too well. Groaning, he slowly sat up from his place on the floor and began his duties, noticing Yami was already up.
Meanwhile, from outside the door, the pharaoh watched his servant work. Again, he was thinking. 'Am I falling for him?' He wondered. 'I have never treated a servant this leniently before. Perhaps it is because of his similarities to Anzu.'
But no, that wasn't right. When Yami first met the boy, he had noticed how Yugi was gentle, compassionate, and innocent, like Anzu. But as he had gotten to know Yugi more, he observed that not only was Yugi kind and innocent, he had a certain aura about him that most people couldn't help but like. If anyone was in the presence of the little slave boy, they would most likely smile at him and strike up a friendly conversation.
Anzu was never like that. Quite opposite, in fact. Yes, she was a good and caring person, but for some reason, people were afraid of her.
'No. Like I said before, I won't break my vow to Anzu.' Yami thought firmly, as he continued to watch Yugi finish his chores. 'Still...'
Sighing, Yami walked away to his study. He tried to concentrate on something else, but everytime he thought of something new, Yugi would pop into his head.
"Argh!" Yami yelled, and threw a quill furiously across the room. 'Stupid slave, such a distraction!' So caught up in his thoughts that at first, Yami didn't notice the light coming from the corner of the room.
When he finally did, he gaped at what he was seeing. A figure slowly materialized, showing a young woman his age, with soft shoulder-length brown hair and angelic silvery wings.
Realizing who it was, Yami felt as if his heart was being squeezed. "Anzu..." he whispered softly, tears forming in his eyes.
"Yami." The figure replied.
"Anzu, I've missed you so." Yami cried, running towards the figure.
Anzu held up a hand warningly, causing Yami to stop. Smiling sadly, the angel replied, "Yami, I haven't much time. I was sent down here to give you a message. You must learn to love again, open your heart. Otherwise, you will be hurt far more than how you felt when I left you."
"What pain could be greater than when I lost you?!" Yami cried.
Anzu shook her head. "I am sorry, I cannot answer. My time is up, but remember what I have told you. Do not dwell on the past, Yami. Find another love, you will need it."
She began to fade away.
Yami ran towards her. "No, Anzu! Don't leave me again, please!"
Her only response was, "Open your heart!" the voice echoed over and over until her angelic form completely disappeared.
