A/N: I'm back, with the same annoying writers block!-_- Will, you all know the disclaimer, so on with the story.
Chapter 4
Iris explained to Maria about there 3 other guest, and the panther.
"Oh my, princess Iris, but why stay in with us, when you can stay with the pharaoh at his palace? There isn't much room here to fit a princess."
"Because if I wanted people to know I was here, I would stay at the palace but I do not want people to know I am here. And please, just call me Iris, if I wanted you to be formal, I would have told you sooner. Besides It's fine, it's not like none of us really need a much room to sleep in." Iris said, "right guys?" She looked at her high priestess and bodyguards.
"It's fine with me." Lei said.
"Me too." Makoto said.
Everyone looked at Shani, "jeez, it's alright with me."
"And Rai wont harm anyone but if you're not comfortable, he can sleep outside." Iris suggested, as she petted Rai.
"No, not all, he can also sleep inside."
"Will, I'm tired, I dink I'm going ta bed right now." Joey said, while yawing.
"I think that's a good idea, good night and thank you for letting us stay here."
"Not all, good night."
~Next day~
Iris woke up to hear people whispering around the house, than yelling.
"LOOK YOU DOG, I KNOW SHE IS STAYING HERE, SO LET ME SEE HER!"
"DON'T CALL ME A DOG YOU SON OF B-"
"You cannot see her, until you show yourself! Exactly, who are you?"
Iris got up and walked up behind her friends, "what's going on here?"
Everyone turned to her, Lei spoke first, "this person would like to speak to you but would not show their face."
Iris looked behind them to see a somebody in a blue cloak, "who are you, what do you want?"
He put back his hood; "I am Seto Kaiba, the high priest of Pharaoh Yami, I came to give you a message."
"What is the message?"
"To come to the palace this afternoon, he wishes to speak with you."
"Fine but it would have to be tonight, this afternoon I am being shown around by my friends."
Seto put up an eyebrow, "I'll see what I can do, I'll be back in a while." He put on his hood and started to walk away, but than stop and said, "you're lucky that they stop you before you talked any further dog, or you would have been killed by me." than he walked away.
Makoto took his hand off of Joey's mouth and looked at him, "I knew there was something strange about him."
"Thank you for saving my brother before he said something stupid to get himself killed!" Serenity said, hitting her brother behind the head.
"It's okay but you have to watch out who you talk too."
"Will now that, that's over, lets go around town, shall we?" Iris said, already putting on her hood.
"But what about the pharaoh's high priest?" Shani asked.
"If he's smart, he'll know where to look for me. Now let's go."
~Seto~
As the high priest Seto Kaiba walked down the street, he looked around to as if trying to find someone.
"What did she say?" a voice said, from the shadows of an alley way.
Seto stop, "she said it would have to be tonight, that her 'friends' are showing her around the town."
"That's fine with me, go to the market place, there bond to be there already."
"Yes my pharaoh, I'll see you back at the palace." he started to walk away again.
~Market place~
"So, anything interesting to buy?" Lei asked, as they saw all the stands some with silk, weapons, jewelry, and food.
"Not really." Makoto said, than he saw a double sided sword, "wow, you can't find this sword anywhere else."
"No you can't. It's a rare piece, a wondering man came and gave it to me for free. He said that this sword is only use for good and destroy evil. That the right person would come buy and claim it." said the old man.
Makoto picked it up and looked at it closely, "how much?"
"100 silver"
"sold." Makoto paid the man and put the sword in a pouch, tying it to his belt.
Serenity saw Seto coming towards them, so she tapped on Iris's shoulder, "the high priest is coming once again."
Iris turned around, Seto stop in front of her, "the pharaoh said it is alright, that he will expect you tonight."
"Great, thank you."
Seto bowed his head and walked away, disappearing in the crowd.
"I wonder what the pharaoh wants." Shani said, as she looked at Lei and Makoto.
"I don't know but I guess I have to find out tonight, don't I?" Iris said, as they continued to look around.
