Chapter 6
"I…I don't know…" Mokuba stuttered, he couldn't stop the tears from coming. "But…it hurts a lot…my arm, I don't know." Seto walked over to Mokuba. He knelt down beside the boy and began to unwrap his arm. The gash was healing, but it didn't look like it was supposed to. The salve was supposed to completely heal all wounds, but the skin was a sickly reddish/ purple color. Seto gasped, he didn't want to believe it, but it was true.
"It's poison…" he whispered, "But, I've never seen anything like it…" Seto looked at the child's arm again, "Wait…" his expression changed to one of horror, "I know what this is…it's fatal." Mokuba just stared at the ground, barely comprehending.
Seto quickly stood up, and rushed to the door, Bastet ran in the room when he opened the door. Seto was going to pay his guard a visit. The little kitten jumped into Mokuba's arms. The child held the kitten and sobbed quietly, so he was going to die? Was that his fate? Help me, big brother.
Seto found his guard, picked him up by the neck and threw him against a wall. "The poison…" he whispered, "You bastard!" he yelled.
"You deserved it!" the guard shouted back.
Seto kicked him in the ribs, "If I deserved it, then why didn't you do it to me?" he screamed.
"Well, it hurts more like this doesn't it?" the guard sneered, "Go ahead kill me." The guard smiled, "I don't care. You ruined my life, I ruin yours. Fair trade?"
"Kill you?" a strange look came into Seto's eyes, "Oh no, I won't kill you, although you'll wish that I had. You will beg me to slay you right then and there."
The guard hadn't expected this; a look of pure terror came into his eyes. Seto smiled, he loved for his victims to look like this.
"I have to tell a child that he's going to die, and there's nothing that I can do about it. You will pay every single day of your life." He gave the command and two other guards grabbed the man and held him still. Seto took out a long whip, smirked, and raised it up and let it fall ten times, savoring the pain of the other man. He then gave the order for the man to be thrown into the dungeon.
Seto looked at the whip. It fell from his hands. He couldn't hold back the tears, the charm glistened. It was almost mocking him. Mocking what he had become.
Mokuba sat on the floor of his brother's chamber, he looked down at the little kitten, the kitten was dead. "Anzu was right." He whispered, "We shared a bond, and you gave your life up for me." The younger child began to sob. His cut was gone. The cat had actually been connected to Mokuba, with the power to save him. The cat was actually his guardian. The goddess of Bastet watched over the child. The Arab was his brother's guardian, everyone had one. No one knew it, not even the high priest.
Seto walked into the room, he gasped when he saw the little kitten and his brother on the floor, and he was even more amazed at the fact that his brother's arm was fine. "What…" he didn't know what to say.
"Bastet…" Mokuba sobbed, "She gave up her life, for me." She took the evil and the pain so that I could live. Seto walked over and kneeled beside his brother. Seto made a silent token of thanks to the goddess; he could have sworn that she answered.
"Mokuba…" Seto began "I didn't know what to do…I-I was scared that you were going to…" he couldn't finish his sentence.
"Brother…" Mokuba whispered, "You gave me Bastet, which means that you saved me." The two brothers hugged, their tears mixing.
The high priest and his brother held each other for a long time.
They were bonded. Forever.
The goddess looked down at her child on earth, not really her child, but she loved Mokuba as such. "I love you Mokuba." She said, "You and your brother." Pleased with her work.
Nothing should split them up, nothing ever will. She had decided. Bastet always kept her promises.
Seto and Mokuba sat on top of the black Arab stallion. The child sat in front of his brother, and they both looked art the moon. The full moon shed light on them in the deserts of Egypt. "Thank you." Mokuba whispered, not loud enough for anyone to hear, but he knew that the goddess had heard him.
The stallion, Seto's protector, pawed the ground impatiently. Seto turned his horse around and they began to walk back to the palace.
The sun rose over the deserts of Egypt.
Goodbye!
