Chapter 10: Surprise surprise
Yugi and Yami were always together. Wherever Yami is, Yugi was there also, and vice versa. Jou always follwed Seto around everywhere, smiling at him and watching him do his duties. The rest of the Millenia were always on the streets and sands and Egypt, defending the citizens from ordinary crimes, from theft to harrasment. Teana always ended up killing her victims though, even though the group told her over and over again that killing victims doesn't solve anything.
Marik and Bakura traveled together all the time, always following Ryou and Malik, who seemed pretty close to each other, like brothers. Honda and Shizuka traveled with Teana, hoping that nothing happens to anyone. When all of them completed their duties, everyone would go visit Yugi and Jou, either during the day or during the night, mostly during the day though, because Jou and Yugi were sometimes doing 'nightly activities'.
Today, everyone was gathered in Yami's throne room, eating lunch on the floor and chatting nonstop. "Oh, I remember the time Honda was practicing with his rod, and when he tried to flip in the air, he landed flat on his face and his rod was thrown across the area!" said Jou, laughing his heart out. Seto smiled at his lover, and tenderly rubbed his hair. Jou smiled at the touch. Honda glared at Jou. "You saw that?! I thought you were supposed to be helping Shizuka with chores!" he told him. Shizuka then looked at her brother.
"Yeah, you were supposed to help me with the chores. Now you owe me, big brother!" she said, playfully punching Jou's arm. Jou grinned. :Yeah I know, but I can't help the fact that Honda's practices go bad! It's just something you gotta see if you need a good laugh!" he reminded Shizuka. Honda snorted. "Yeah well at least I don't pretend the trees are axe-weilders ready to chop you into bits! What kind of axe-weliders just stand there and sway with the wind?" he taunted. Jou glared at Honda. "It helps makes the adrenaline and concentration work better." he said. Honda just shook his head and laughed.
"Actually it does, because sometimes it's good to let your imagination run free." said Yugi, smiling with Yami hugging him close and giving him kisses occasionally. Seto chuckled. "Well, there was this one time when Yami and I were kids, and we had to learn how to fight. The master was teaching Yami how to swing his sword. When Yami did swing his sword, it went right out of his hands and into the wall just inches away from a guard's face!" he told everyone. Yami glared at him.
"It wasn't my fault he was in the way! Besides, I was only eight years old!" he protested. Everyone was laughing at the image of what Seto told them in their minds. Yami couldn't help but smile, especially since Yugi was laughing too. Yami pouted toward Seto, and Seto just grinned. Bakura and Marik said nothing, but were busy looking at Ryou and Malik contently, as if that's all they wanted to do. Suddenly, the doors flew open, and a guard came in. Yami looked at the guard with emotionless eyes.
"What is it?" he demanded, munching on a plum. The guard bowed. "Your Highness, I'm so sorry for interrupting your meal, but three individuals request permission to speak to you. They claim they know the Millenia." he informed. Yami looked at Yugi, and Yugi looked at everyone. No one seemed to have a clue, so Yugi looked at his lover with unknowing eyes. Yami understood and looked at the guard. "Bring them here." he commanded. The guard nodded, bowed again, and left, closing the doors gently behind him.
Yami looked at the group. "I wonder who it could be." he said. Yugi shook his head. "I don't know. Practically everyone in Egypt knows us, so it can really be anybody." he answered, popping some grapes in his mouth. Honda looked at Yugi. "It might be villagers asking for something." he suggested. Teana nodded before taking a bite out of her peach. "Probably for some food or something." she added. "Well, we'll never know until we see them." Ryou confirmed. Malik nodded.
"That's true." he added. "But I have to ask, is there anyone else in the Millenia besides us?" Bakura and Marik's eyes were still fixed on their look-alikes.
"Well, there's-" Jou explained before he was interrupted by the doors opening. Everyone stood up to greet them, even Yami and Seto. Three people, one man and two women, entered the throne room with the guard behind them. The guard led them in, then left closing the doors. Yami ans Seto took a good look at them.
One woman had long silky raven hair that flowed down and stopped near her waist. her skin was tan, showing lookers that she was often in the sun. Her eyes were a stunning sapphire blue, easily rivaling with Seto's rich colbat. What she wore was odd. She wore a flowy white tunic and skirt, with her legs showing at the sides while the hem of the skirt reached all the way at her ankles. (a/n It's basically what the muses in 'Hercules' wear)
The other woman had deep purple eyes, not as bright as Yugi's, but pretty darn close to it. She was a blonde, just like Jou, but her hair shined like the rays of the sun while Jou's shined like the sun and sands of Egypt combined. The hair only reached to the middle of her back, with curls at the end of the rich strands. Her skin was fair, and pretty too. She wore a leather outfit, fit for only a warrior. She wore a leather tunic with a breastplate, and a leather skirt with brown and black showing here and there. On her feet were low leather boots and on her side was a belt with a whip tied to it. (a/n a little similar to what Xena wears)
The man was different. He had eyes, rivaling the color of emerald gems. He hair was also black, but almost sinister looking. His skin was also fair, but not a s fair as the blonde woman's. He wore a black leather tunic with black leather pants as well. On his feet he wore shoes instead of sandals. On his waist was a belt with so many knives no one could count. Yugi recognized two of them immediately.
"Mai? Isis?" he gasped. The two women smiled at Yugi and nodded. Yugi laughed, and went to go hug them. The two returned Yugi's hug with no regret. The others greeted them with their own ways. "Mai, Isis, what are you girls doing here?" he asked. Yami looked at them with narrow eyes. "We came as soon as we heard that you and Jou were captured by the pharaoh and his High Priest, so our intention was to come and rescue you. Then we heard that you two decided to stay at your own will, so we came to be bodyguards along with the rest of you." Isis explained, looking at the rest of the Millenia.
Yami's eys softened as Yugi came back to Yami. "Yami, these two women are also part of the Millenia. They also want to be Egypt's bodyguards. Will that be okay?" he asked. Yami smiled at them. "That would be wonderful." he answered. Isis and Mai smiled. Jou stepped up. "Hey Mai. Haven't seen you in a while, how have you been?" he asked, giving her a hug. Mai chuckled. "I've been okay. Been worried though when I heard everything back in Rome. Are you okay?" she asked. Jou chuckled, looked at Seto, then turned back to Mai. "Never better." he answered. Mai smiled, then looked at Bakura and Marik.
"Who are those two?" she asked. Bakura stepped up, holding a ninja star at throwing position. "Marik and I are backups in case the regular Millenia need help. Got a problem with that?" he asked daringly. Mai scoffed. "Bakura, be nice." said Ryou. Bakura turned to Ryou and sneered at him, making Ryou quiet again. "That wasn't very nice." said Marik. Bakura glared at Marik. "Shut up." he hissed, only enough for Marik to hear though. Marik smirked, then stepped away. isis shook her head. "Is there anymore questions?" she asked. "Who's'' he?" everyone but Mai and Isis asked, pointing at the emerald-eyed man.
"Ah, so you found him and decided to take him in?" said Yugi, still munching on grapes with Yami holding him protectively. Mai nodded. "His name is Otogi Ryuuji, (a/n or is it the other way around?) but he prefers to be called Ryuuji." she added. Yugi nodded approvingly. Seto was holding Jou in his arms, but he was looking at the way Ryuuji was looking at Jou. Intense, hungy-filled eyes. Quite similar with the look Seto gave Jou when they first met. 'I'll have to be careful about this guy. He may want Jou, but he's not going to get him' Seto thought.
"So, Ryuuji, what is your fighting style?" Seto asked. Ryuuji looked at Seto, annoyed. Then he smirked. "I throw knives around." he said curtly. Suddenly, without warning, Ryuuji took out a knife and threw it across the room, landing in the wall inches away from a guard's face. Seto looked at the knife and smirked. "Nice aim." he commented, smirking. Ryuuji sneered. "What are you talking about? I missed." he hissed. Everyone looked at Seto, then at the knife, and at Ryuuji. Mai slapped Ryuuji's thigh.
"Don't go throwing knives around, you might hurt somebody!" she scolded. Ryuuji snorted. Serenity then turned to Isis. "What's your fighting style, Isis?" she asked before taking a small bite out of her apple. Isis smiled. "I do martial arts. Judo." she answered. Shizuka nodded approvingly. Isis then turned to Mai. "Mai uses a whip for her fighting style. She claims she likes to whip men into shape before giving them scars." Mai snorted, then shook her head.
"I can't help the fact that everyone who fights me always ends up with scars. Besides, what's wrong with whipping men into shape? They always do stupid things." she commented. Every man in that group was glaring at her. Teana leaned over to speak to Mai. "Mai, there are ten guys here and only four girls. All ten guys are capable of fighting. I don't think you'll want to sleep feeling broken and bruised." she whispered. Mai laughed.
"But I'm sure these men always know what they're doing." she added, and the men went back to eating fruit. "Just don't trust Yami with a sword." Seto warned, smirking. "Hey!" Yami protested, making everyone laugh. Soon, everyone was telling stories, laughing, and just plain old having fun.
Later that evening, Yami deicded that Mai, Isis, and Ryuuji were going to be night bodyguards, so the three had night shifts and would sleep in the day. Ryuuji, Isis, and Mai shared a room near Shizuka, Honda, and Teana. Ryuuji was getting ready to go when he spied Jou going to Seto's room. "Hey Jou." he greeted. Jou turned around and saw Ryuuji and smiled at him.
"Hey Ryuuji. Shouldn't you be getting ready for patrolling?" he asked. Ryuuji shrugged. "Ra hasn't set, I've got time. Come on, I'll walk with you." he said. Jou shrugged and continued walking, with Ryuuji following him.
"So, where you heading?" Ryuuji asked. "To Seto's room." Jou answered. "Why?" Ryuuji pressed. Jou shrugged. "Cause I like it there." he answered, unsure of what Ryuuji was getting to. Ryuuji smirked. "Because Seto gives you a good fuck?" That made Jou stop walking. Jou looked at Ryuuji. "What are you talking about?" Ryuuji laughed.
"Come on, Jou. You think I don't know about you guys? You love him and he loves you, I'm not that stupid. But tell me, what do you love him for? Good fuck or good devotion?" he dared, smirking at the blonde-haired boy. Jou looked at him. "Good devotion, of course." he answered without hesitation. Jou then started to walk again, only to have Ryuuji stop him. Jou looked at the verdant-eyed newcomer. "Ryuuji, get out of the way." he said gently. Ryuuji shook his head.
"No." Jou glared at him. "Look man, I don't know what your problem is, but-" Jou tried to get past Ryuuji, but Ryuuji shoved him to the wall. "You want that mother fucker more than me? Let's just see what happens when his pretty dog gets touched by another." he hissed, practically pinning Jou to the wall. Jou's flaxen honey eyes started showing fear.
"Ryuuji, get the hell away from Jou before you get sent tot he Shadow Realm." said a voice. Both boys turned around. Seto was standing there, a few feet away from the two, but looking very pissed. Ryuuji smirked, then stepped away from Jou. Ryuuji gave Jou a lust-filled look, then walked away. Jou looked at him with frightened eyes, until Seto gently grabbed his arm. Jou looked at Seto. "Come on. Let's go to my room." he suggested gently, knowing that Jou was probably traumatized by Ryuuji. Jou silently followed his lover.
Once the two got to Seto's elaborate bedroom, Seto closed the door and faced Jou. Jou turned around to explain. "Seto, it's not what it looked liked. Ryuuji came up to me, and he wanted to walk with me, and the next thing I know-" "Stop." said Seto, cutting Jou off. "I saw and heard the whole thing. I know you didn't mean to, so I'm not mad at you." he announced. Jou sighed, and plopped himself on Seto's bed. Seto walked over to the bed and sat with Jou. "I may need to be more careful around Ryuuji. He'll do anything to get me. He might even kill you, Seto." said Jou.
"Ryuuji won't get even one yard near you, and I'll make sure of that, so don't worry." he replied, holding Jou's hand. Jou sighed. "I don't derserve you." he told Seto. Seto chuckled, and leaned over Jou.
"I don't derserve you either, but Ra gave you to me." he said, giving Jou a passionate kiss. Jou eagerly returned the kiss. Seto licked Jou's bottom lip, begging for entry. Jou gave him the entry he needed to explore Jou's sweet mouth.
Soon, the two broke the kiss, panting for air. "I have something to return to you." Jou panted. Seto gave him a curious look. Jou smiled, and reached into the folds of his tunic. Jou pulled out a small sapphire, the same one he took from the treasure room. Jou smiled. "I snuck it out of the treasure room. Sorry about that." he said. Seto smiled, then closed Jou's palm, with the sapphire in Jou's smooth hands. "You keep it, as a gift." he said. Jou smiled, then the two started kissing again.
