~In Nakia's Suite~
Nakia had put on her pajamas and was now sitting on her bed in a kind of shock. 'Malik had come up with the idea to take over my mind and body? Was his Yami lying? What if he were telling the truth?'
She picked up the phone and called information and got Malik's phone number, she wrote it down and stared at it. 'Should I call him?' She lay down on the bed and tried to think, but her thoughts were more confused than ever.
~Nakia's pov~
Was he just playing with my emotions when he kissed me in the park? And what about his concern for my well being? He did capture me, he could have taken over my mind then but he didn't. Was that just a trick to gain my trust? Can his Yami be trusted to tell me the truth? Did Malik plan this? Why would he do this to me? Does he really care? What should I do? Should I call him?
What if I told Yami? No telling Yami would be a big mistake; Yami would kill Malik and then I would never have the answers. But Yami will know, he always knows my moods.
~Normal pov~
Nakia fell asleep with her thoughts whirling around in her head.
Nakia woke up a few hours later from a nightmare. She sat up and tried to catch her breath as the nightmare tried to slip away, but she wouldn't let it. She had to remember.
~Nakia's dream~
She was back in Egypt, dressed in all her finery. Yami was holding a party of some sort, there were bright banners everywhere and people were dancing and eating. Nakia was standing in her place next to her brother's chair.
"Go dance Nakia, I can see the eyes of many men upon you." Yami said with a smile.
"No Yami, I don't want to dance."
"Fine, if you won't dance when I ask you to, then I order you as your Pharaoh to dance with me." Nakia blushed, but she took his hand when he offered it, and they walked to the dance floor. She had only been dancing with him for a few minutes when he handed her off to a young man, a young man who looked exactly like Malik.
Nakia watched her brother go back to sit on his throne; a giant grin on his face. Nakia looked to him helplessly, and then remembering her duty, turned back to the young man.
"Your highness." He said respectively and gave a small bow. Nakia gave him a small nod, and he took her hands. Nakia was quiet as they danced; she had decided to let him speak first. "Her highness does not wish to know the name of the man she dances with?" he asked jokingly with a smile.
"I was waiting for you to introduce yourself and then for you to spout off your many accomplishments, and tell me why it would be in my best interest to marry you." Nakia said, looking into his eyes.
"You highness I would never be so bold, just this dance with you is enough for me." He said, still in that joking tone. And Nakia smiled.
"You are not like the other men here, and now I wonder who you are."
"Ah poor highness, for I will not tell you. You should have asked sooner." He grinned.
"You will not tell me your name, and you don't spout off your accomplishments to me, or purpose marriage, and you seem happy just to dance with me. You have me quite baffled."
"I am content to dance with you because I get to hold you in my arms."
"If you purposed and I accepted then you would have me in your arms always."
"No I wouldn't, because as your husband I would always be busy, off doing things for your brother or something like that. But if we remain as we are, I can hold you in my arms and only have to let go when the music stops. If we stay as we are highness, friends, as I hope you will call me one, I can spend endless amounts of time with you, so that I might get to know the look of your face so that I can carry it with me wherever I go." He held her closer.
"Tell me your name." She whispered into his ear.
"Meet me tonight, after the party has ended, in the garden, by the small pool." He whispered back, "Then you will have your answers." At that moment the music ended, and just as quickly he had appeared he disappeared from her sight, leaving her with a kiss on the hand and a smile.
Nakia walked back up to her place by her brother's chair in a slight daze.
"I see by the look on your face that you enjoyed yourself." Yami said with a smile.
"That was a terrible thing to do Yami. I can't believe you did that." Yami chuckled,
"You can thank me later."
~Later that night~
Nakia walked around the garden in the dark until she came to the small pool. He wasn't there yet, so she waited. It wasn't long until a pair of hands covered her eyes.
"Guess who." A voice whispered in her ear.
"You wouldn't happen to be that gorgeous man that I danced with after I danced with that strange man who wouldn't tell me his name would you?" She asked jokingly.
"I watched you the rest of the dance, you didn't dance with anyone after me." He said as he removed his hands from her eyes. She turned around to face him.
"I looked for a glimpse of you all night. How is it that you saw me if I didn't see you?" He grinned.
"Couldn't get me out of your mind could you?" he said, his tone light and joking like before.
"I was looking for you so I could point you out to the guards." She said with a smile.
"But her highness hasn't brought any guards with her I see." He said looking around.
"Must you joke?"
"It's killing you isn't it? Not knowing who I am."
"Tell me your name." she said, trying to sound bored.
"Not until you admit that it bugs you not knowing."
"I could live my entire life without knowing." She said stubbornly.
"Are you certain? Well then maybe I should just leave." He turned to go.
"Oh Ra you are annoying! YES!"
"Yes what highness?" He asked, turning around.
"Yes it is killing me not knowing!" He grinned from ear to ear, then he took a step towards her.
"Malik." He said with a smile. "Malik is my name highness."
"Malik, do not call me highness."
"Then what would you have me call you?"
"Call me Nakia." Malik's attention was then drawn to something behind her, Nakia turned only to be grabbed by another man who looked exactly like Malik. She tried to scream but Malik came from behind her and covered her mouth. The next thing Nakia knew she was being dragged to the pool.
"Hold on to her, if she gets away it will be our heads." Malik said to the second one. "I'm sorry highness, but your brother must pay for what he has done." Malik said as the other one lay her down so her head was just over the pool. "I really do like you highness, if the circumstances were different I really would just be content to have you in my arms."
Nakia struggled, she kicked and flailed but she couldn't throw them off. A single tear slipped down her face when he said that he would be content with her in his arms.
'As would I have been..' The second Malik plunged her head into the water and held it down, she fought for a minute. Her brain became fuzzy, and then everything went dark.
