I DO NOT OWN ANY CHARACTERS FROM YU-GI-OH! THE CREDIT GOES TO MR. Takahashi (I cannot spell his name!)
Ayah slowly opened her eyes and looked around at her surroundings in wonder. She was in a bedroom decorated in turquoise and gold. Two large, golden pillars marked the entry to the room. A black haired woman smiled down at her, "I'm glad to see you awaken, miss. How are you feeling?" "I am feeling fine. How did I get here?" Ayah asked the woman. "The Pharaoh brought you here himself. He found you half dead in the sand." she replied. "THE PHARAOH! HE brought me here!" Ayah exclaimed. She blushed deeply. A dreamy look spread across her face. "I must tell him that you have awakened and are doing well." the nurse told Ayah, breaking her out of her trance. The maids followed the nurse out excited to alert the Pharaoh of the newcomer. "I wonder if I will get to see him naked." Ayah giggled. Then she frowned and slapped herself across her face. "ARRGGGHH! Stop thinking that! Quit being naughty!" she told herself.
"Who is that beautiful woman I saw you bring in?" asked Priest Seto. "I will find out when she awakens." the Pharaoh replied. "We must keep watch for Bakura. He could strike at any minute." Seto said. "She needs my attention." Atem stated. "Let ME go see to her, then you won't have to divide your attention." Seto requested and rushed to find her. Atem frowned and watched him go.
"Oh! Priest Seto! We were just on our way to tell the Pharaoh that his guest has awakened." the nurse said in surprise. "Where can we find him?" asked a maid. "The Pharaoh wanted me to check on her." Seto told them. "Where is she?" "She is in the guest room in the main hall." the nurse replied. Seto pushed past the maids and made his way down the hall to the guestroom.
Ayah heard footsteps coming down the hall making her heart pound faster. Could it be the Pharaoh?! she thought. She felt like she was going to have a heart attack. Priest Seto entered her chamber and walked over to the side of the bed. Ayah's heart sank in disappointment. No. It's just one of his priests. Seto started to speak, but another man entered the room. Ayah's eyes lit up and sparkled like diamonds. THE PHARAOH!
"Leave us, Seto." Atem demanded. Seto frowned and left the room briskly. "I see you are doing well." The Pharaoh told her has he sat on the edge of the bed. He flashed her a shining smile making her turn bright red. He laughed, "I see I have that effect on you." "What is you name?" he asked her. "Oh! Please forgive me, my Pharaoh! I am Ayah, Princess of Ra." I have heard of her, Atem thought, so... she is the woman I have heard men talk about and sought after. "Beautiful name for a lovely lady." She smiled sending his heart into whirly loops. "Would you like to have dinner with me?" he asked. Excitement flowed through her. Dinner with the Pharaoh! she thought. "Of course, my Pharaoh. I would love to join you!" Atem walked over to the closet on the other side of the room and pulled out a long skirt made of strips of red and gold cloth overlapping each other, a gold silk scarf, and a gold halter with red, see-though silk sleeves. Atem turned to face Ayah and smirked "Do you like to dance?" he asked and tossed her the clothing. She picked up the clothing and silkily walked over to the Pharaoh. She brushed the silk scarf over his ear and smiled at him wildly, "Anything for my Pharaoh." she said in a cool voice. "I'll leave you to change then" he grinned at her then left the chamber.
Ayah quickly removed her common off-white dress and slipped on the skirt. Maids entered the room "The Pharaoh thought you might want help to tie on the halter." a maid said "Thank you." Ayah replied. She slipped her arms through the delicate sleeves and the maid tied the back. "And he requested we bring you these." another maid decorated Ayah with golden jewelry. Priest Mahaado was waiting for Ayah outside her chamber. "I will escort you to the throne room where the feast and Pharaoh wait." "Thank you, Priest." Ayah's heart was pumping with excitement. She wanted to charm her Pharaoh and blow him away with her dancing. She smiled as she entered the lively chamber.
Outside it was growing dark and dark hooded men wait for their master's orders.
Bakura looked down at the Palace from a cliff top. He laughed dangerously, "I am coming for you, Pharaoh!"
