Omg! Hey everyone I AM SO very sorry for not updating any sooner, its been such a long time, and you guys have been awesome, so thank you so much fro your patience, and I am also very sorry if this chapter isn't satisfying for you, but to be bluntly honest, I had lost interest in this story, and no idea of the original plot that may or may not have been planned, (can't remember if there was one) Anyways, I hope that this new plot i have sorta came up with is alright for all you fans, but note the next few chapters will be focussed on the event that took place in Egypt, but not to worry, because in Babygurl language that basically means, the romance and fluff you've been waiting for is about to happen .

Marik: It's about time

Babygurl: Whatever, you know the longer the wait the better it is

Joey: So wha kinda romance?

Babygurl: Well I think I'm too young to write lemon, but I'll think about it, n its romance with... READY??

Kaiba and Joey
Yami and Yugi
Marik and Malik
Bakura and Ryou (but not soo much, probably more B/R then M/M) [sowee for you M/M fans, if I get enough requests then I might add sum stuff in there for you]
Trinity/Yami (Yes they had a past -.-)
Serenity and Tristan (some, not as much as the others)

Other things too look foward too: TEA BASHING! Its a whole new game now that, one I'm 7 months older and wiser then when I last posted, and two; that were in a whole new time era, so watch out hunny, cuz u gonna be bashed, lol, but don't worry Tea fans, she'll have a few witty comebacks and be slightly valuble as a character.

Ne wayz, now on to the story, I don't own Yu-gi-oh, blah blah blah... now please enjoy! and R&R!! Love you guys! MUAHZ!

Chapter 17: Back in Egypt

Yami gasped at what he saw. The pharaoh had bundled in his arms none other then Yugi. Nani? I don't understandYugi blushed lightly noticing the look that the pharaoh had on his face. He wished more then anything that Yami would look at him like that. Well look at his reincarnation like that. Shadi and the others continued watching. The majority of the gang had emerged from one of the three chariots; Yami, the pharaoh, Seto Kaiba, the High Priest, Tristan and Joey, Yami's followers, Tea, a foreign "princess."

Ryou looked down puzzled, "how come I haven't seen my old self, or Bakura's?" Bakura snickered, "Dumbass, you're right there." He pointed down at the chariot. From behind Kaiba out stepped Ryou now standing proudly next to Yami's entourage. Yugi smiled brightly. "Hey look Ryou, it seems you must've been someone important if you got to ride with Kaiba, and Yami.

Marik snorted, "humph. He was a no body. He was your best friend Yugi, so the pharaoh decided to keep him around to make you happy."

Yugi blushed; smiling at the fact that in the past, it appeared the Yami did anything in his power to make him happy. Probably even more then he was aware of. Ryou smiled softly at the others then shifted his gaze downwards not wanting the others to see his despair. /I'm 'nobody'; I've always been that way/ Bakura glanced back towards his hikari. His facial features softened slightly. I wish he would smile

Shadi pointed forwards at a rather large building, causing everyone to gasp. "That… that's enormous…" Tea whispered, "Was that your palace Yami." She asked him ever so sweetly, moving closer to him in the sky. He barely noticed his eyebrows were knit together in confusion, so he didn't notice the look of despair that spread across Yugi's features. "I don't think so…" Shadi nodded his head. "Ile, this is not your palace pharaoh, rather the second ruler of Egypt at that time."

They watched on as the gates to the palace opened at Yami walked through still holding Yugi tightly in his arms. The palace guards allowed the entry as the proceeded to walk in. Shadi spoke quietly, wanting them to see the rest of there past be played out. "The others you will see are about to be revealed."

Ancient POV (This POV shows the feeling of the incarnates, The pharaoh and his entourage)

Yami walked forward past the guards paying no attention to them. His high priest was behind his every step. The palace was exquisite on the exterior. It was a large palace, with dome shaped roofs and bounty of columns. It was painted a brilliant gold colour, and around the courtyard were several statues of each of the ancient Egyptian Gods. In the center however stood a statue of Amen-Ra the God of the sun.

Joey and Tristan giggled and pointed at the guards making fun of their outfits. "He he… you look funny HAHAHA." Joey pointed laughing at the soldier standing at the gate. He and Tristan doubled over in laughter, knowing that the guards had strict orders not to lay a finger on them. The guard's eye began to twitch, as he grasped his sword. Yami shifted his gaze backwards, almost daring the guard to move a finger. The guard simply bowed his head, suppressing his anger he stood back allowing easy entrance to Joey and Tristan.

"You mongrel come over here." The high priest beckoned to Jou, who came all to willingly to stand next to his side. It was no secret the feeling the two shared for each other, except the High priest felt to distinguished to admit to them. Yami grinned lightly as he stepped up each of the palace outside stairs, which were made of pure marble that shined and glistened the blistering sun of Egypt. As he reached the top he stopped abruptly, as did his High Priest. This of course caught Joey off guard who banged into his back, and took the opportunity to take in the sweet scent of his lover.

/He smells so sweet, like honeysuckle and cinnamon/ He also took this opportunity to run his fingers along Seto's spine, causing the high priest to shudder. It was taking every ounce of him not to spin the blond boy around, and completely devour his soft, supple lips.

Kaiba and the others who were watching the scene be played out from above raised an eyebrow at the actions of Joey, obviously oblivious to the feeling racing through the High priest's head. Joey blushed as he glanced over at Kaiba from the corner of his eye. He had a solemn look on his face. Not necessarily one of disgust or discomfort, more like he was pleased and somewhat satisfied?

Yami looked down at the bundle in his arms. He was so sweet and innocent, why anyone would even think of doing this was beyond him. He blew Yugi's soft blond bangs out of his eyes, soaking in the boy's beauty, trying hard to ignore the scars that were on his face. He had been badly burnt and beaten, and it had been his (Yami's) fault. Dammit, why did I leave him alone

As the Pharaoh waited to be welcomed into the palace they could here the pitter-patter of at least two-dozen guards approaching them. A figure from inside the palace advanced. He stood in front of the pharaoh, his armor and clothing clearly unmasking him as head of security for the Princess. He placed his sword neatly in his sheath, and bowed down towards the pharaoh.

"My Pharaoh, we were not expecting you until later this evening. I will beckon for the Princess." Yami nodded his head in response, everyone taking note of the authority that Yami held. He glanced back down at Yugi; he was still unconscious the smoke from the fire had filled his lungs.

The others looked around the palace adoring the richness and beauty of the interior palace. The entire floor was bad of marble and the staircase was grand, made of granite and gold trimmings. Large sky roofs on the roof of the palace provided enough sunlight, to completely illuminate the room, and give it the final touch it needed to make the room look superior to that anyone had ever seen.

Ryou gasped in awe, never had he seen such beauty in a single room, except for of course the Pharaoh's palace. Just then a figure walked into the room, someone no one had ever expected to see. Malik.

Yami's eyes widened, "You, what is the meaning of this?" He spoke, anger clearly evident in his voice. It was apparent that Malik had tried to deceive the pharaoh before. Joey and Tristan both snarled seeing Malik. They all had their share of run-ins with Malik, and we're particularly happy about seeing him. Malik looked saddened at the expression on everyone' s face when they saw him, but that was his past, not his present, nor did he want it to be his future.

Yami clutched tighter on to Yugi, trying hard to suppress his anger. His guards standing close by moved closer to Malik, sensing that their pharaoh would be asking for him to be removed. Malik closed his eyes feeling two guards grab his arms tightly, and violently on each side. Yami glared menacingly at the boy, silently wondering why he hadn't tried to escape their grasp yet. He motioned for several more guards to surround the boy, just in case he tried to harm Yugi or anyone else. Malik shuddered as he noticed the other guards advancing on him.

Marik growled loudly, "What is this bullshit? Leave my koi the f alone." He grabbed on to Malik's arm pulling him closer and wrapping his arms around his waist protectively. Malik smiled softly at the embrace. "I should beat the living snot out of you pharaoh," he said while glaring daggers at Yami. Yami jus ignored him as he continued to watch on, wanting to know more about his past. He glanced over at Trinity she has been silent this whole time. Trinity couldn't possibly be the real princess could she… why do I feel like that's not all there is to this story

Malik felt his heart beginning to race, this isn't what he'd wanted, he'd changed why were they treating him like he was a criminal? "Release him," a strong female voice suddenly came. The guards looked up, and Malik smiled in relief, his princess had come. The high priest and Yami's entire entourage looked up, trying to see where the voice was coming from. The rest of the palace guards had moved aside creating a passageway from the source of the voice to the Pharaoh.

Yami's guards had released Malik, and stepped aside also, bowing along with the other guards, and servants present at the moment. The shadowed figure walked in, revealing the princess…

Yugi's eyes widened upon seeing who the princess really was. Serenity glanced down her eyes too widening. Was she? She couldn't be… "I had a past life here too," she whispered. Joey felt his lips beginning to tremble; it was as if his memories were suddenly all coming back to him, as they were to everyone else too. Shadi glanced back at the gang; Tristan, Tea, Joey, Serenity, Malik, Marik, Ryou and Bakura, Seto, Trinity, Yugi and the pharaoh, Yami. It was all coming back to them, and very soon the entire truth would be revealed.
