The Egyptian Princess

Chapter 8: Let the Healing Begin!

Yami was asleep in the tent when lunch came around. Although Anzu hadn't eaten since she left the palace, she refused the food that they tried to serve her.

"Princess Anzu, please eat. You don't want to get sick or weak." Masumi insisted. Anzu looked at her old friend.

"Why do you call me 'Princess Anzu'? I'm no princess and you know that!" Anzu said. Masumi looked at the ground.

"Because..why else would you come here without completing a mission? And why else would you be so worried in the Pharaoh's health?" Masumi answered whiles continuing to look at the ground. Anzu looked her friend. Masumi was starting to shake and Anzu noticed she was crying.

"Why are you crying?"

"Because I know my fate now. Yami is going to be healed and then you two are going to take this camp and punish us for everything that we have done." Masumi sobbed. Anzu reached over and hugged her.

"I would never do that! And if Yami tried to pull that stunt I would also take the penalty cause I was part of this group." Anzu tried to comfort her friend. Masumi sniffed and shook her head, saying she understood. "Now do you know what type disease this is?" Masumi looked at Yami closely. She put her ear close to his face to listen to his breathing. Anzu didn't particularly like how close she was getting to him, but didn't say anything. 'Masumi, if you do anything..Wait! Anzu, don't think that!'

"I'm sorry. But I have no clue what type of sickness has been bestowed upon him." Masumi moved into an upright position. Anzu looked down at Yami. 'Maybe..." She got up and walked over to the trunk full of medicine and liquids.

"Fi eno stsurt ni yht fles eno nac od eht elbissopmi suht si eht tra fo eruc ot esoht ohw era tserup ni treah dna yhtrow-tsurt ni yht sdeed." Anzu repeated the mysterious language that had come to her mind while in the castle. A bottle glowed and flew into her hands.

"W-what just happened??" Masumi asked, bewildered by either the language or the glowing bottle. Anzu was about to turn around and smile at her friend when another memory slipped.

~Flashback~

Anzu was watching her mother try to heal a little commoner boy who had fallen deathly ill. When she had finished giving the boy the medicine, Anzu and her mother walked out of the room.

"Mommy, what was it that you spoke to the boy? You know that weird language thingy." Anzu asked innocently. Her mother looked down at her.

"The language you just heard was actually a prayer that has been passed down in our family for generations. It's a prayer to the goddess or Magic and Healing, Isis."

"Oh, what does it mean?" Anzu questioned again. Her mother chuckled.

"When the time is right, you will understand."

~End Flashback~

"Anzu..Anzu!" Masumi yelled into her ear. Anzu jumped and nearly dropped the bottle. "Sorry if I scared you but you blanked out. What happened?"

"Sorry. I was having another memory recall." Anzu laughed a little.

"What was that thing you said earlier?"

"It was a prayer; to the goddess Isis. If you translate it, it would say 'If one trust in thy self then one can do the impossible thus is the art of cure to those who are purest in heart and trust-worthy in thy deeds.'" Anzu said solemnly. "It's a prayer that has been in my family for, who knows how long."

"Oh." Was all Masumi could say. Anzu took the bottle over to Yami. After gathering the needed plants, herbs, and liquids to make a soup, she grinded all the ingredients in a bowl and put three drops of medicine in. Anzu placed Yami's head in her lap so he was sitting up somewhat. She put the bowl to his lips and forced him to drink it. Yami swallowed the liquid and started to open his eyes.

"Yami? How are you feeling?" Anzu asked. Yami looked up and saw her directly over him, for his head was still in her lap. He smiled and again fell into a peaceful sleep. Anzu put the bowl down and, hesitantly, moved his head back onto the pillow. Masumi saw her hesitate to put Yami's head back onto the pillow. She smiled inwardly.

"Anzu, why did you hesitate to put the Pharaoh's head back on the pillow?" Masumi asked when they stepped out of the tent. Anzu looked away so her friend wouldn't see her starting to turn red.

"I was afraid I would wake him. He needs his rest you know." Anzu said, hoping her excuse would work.

"Uh-huh! And I have three arms! You love him don't you!" Anzu's head spun around to glare at Masumi.

"WHAT?! How could you ever think that! He's the Pharaoh of all Egypt and my best friend's brother. What in the name of Ra made you think I actually LOVED him!" Anzu stormed off. /hehe. See, you do have something more on your mind. Confess, last night you were more worried about Yami then anyone/ Magician Girl teased through their link. //SHUT UP!// Anzu snapped. She stopped and then replied //And you should keep our link closed more tightly at night. Weren't you dreaming about you and Dark Magician?// Anzu didn't have to look to know Magician Girl was now a bright red.

The moon had started to rise when Yami woke up. He looked around at his settings trying to remember where he was. He sat up in bed and searched for any life.

"My Pharaoh. Up so soon." A voice from the door said. Yami turned to see a red head looking at him. "Sorry if I disturbed you. My name is Masumi. I'm a friend of Anzu." She said bowing.

"Do you know where Anzu is?"

"Yes. I was sent here to get you when you woke up. Follow me." Masumi said as she went out the door. Yami got up and followed. Outside people were dancing around a big campfire eating and singing. Music played as dancers danced in the glow of the fire. But when everyone saw Yami appear from the tent they stopped what they were doing. The camp fell into silence. Nothing was heard except the crackle of the fire. Anzu stopped talking when everything went quiet. She looked up and saw a very confused Yami. Anzu stood up.

"Mighty Pharaoh. You have come to this place and destroyed to peace. What do you think your punishment shall be?" Anzu said. Yami looked at her was captured by her beauty. She was wearing what would seem like a red bikini top showing off lovely tanned arms and stomach. Her skirt was full length but had two very long slits up the side. Gold, silver, and gems played in her hair and around her arms. A belt with a sapphire gem in the middle hung around her waist. Anzu smiled when she saw Yami looking at her.

"Snap out of it Pharaoh-boy! If you want her then go get her." Masumi said and walked away. Yami came out of his daze and walked forward towards Anzu. When he reached her he took her hand and kissed it.

"You look more beautiful every time I see you." Yami commented. Anzu turned away so know one would see her blush.

"Well. Yami here doesn't what its like to have one whole night of fun. So start partying!" Anzu yelled. All at once the music, dancers, and chatting started again. Yami took a seat next to Anzu.

"So this is what you did most of your life?" Yami asked. Anzu looked away.

"No. This I rarely ever got to see." She said sadly. Yami lifted her chin up and gazed into her eyes. Slowly their faces came closer...

SC: BUWAHAHAHAHA!! I'm evil!! Will they kiss or will something happen so they cant? Happy Easter!!! *is sugar high from all candy* @_@
