Chapter 24: Depending On Life
The Tomb Robber's faction was helping their master return to their home, as from a long night of dissatisfaction, of the unsuccessful initiation of their plan.
"I can't believe that, jackass Malik ruined our plan!" Harakhty growled.
"Yeah! That asshole better get caught quickly, before master returns from his trauma!" Lateef added while getting some of the weapons they were supposed to use.
"Enough of your talking. We must bring master in the den now, so he easily recovers from this shock of his." Yazid said while carrying Bakura's arm around his shoulders while Funsani was on the other side.
"You two," he faced the Arshen brother "take the horses in the pen and tie them up." Then he face Funsani "Funsani, you can get some supplies from town. We have to take care of master. Hope you don't mind?"
"No, it's ok. Aswad," he called his comrade "help Yazid bring Master Bakura inside." Aswad nodded and brought bakura's arm on his shoulder.

(The Next Day)…………
"Are you sure? You can't place over a hundred of the lives of men for this war!" yelled a man to Yami.
Yami was sitting across a round table, eyes closed, arms crossed. He was talking to different ambassadors all over Egypt. They were having a discussion about the upcoming war in 2 days.
"Ambassador Abasi, is right Pharaoh Yami." said another man.
"I do not care Ambassador Baal. I will do anything just to save my little sister from the grasp of Malik Ishtar." Yami calmly said eyes still closed.
"Very well if that is your decision, Pharaoh," said the ambassador who was seated right across from Yami. He too also looked calm and was closing his eyes "but if that is your choice just remember the consequences. If Malik wins the war, he will seize Slifer and your Puzzle."
"I know that very well Ambassador Ishaq. That is why I am putting my life on this war, just to save Safiya."
"Very well if that is your decision." Ishaq closed his eyes.
"It is my decision."
----====***====----
Bakura was sleeping on his bed for 2 days already still shocked from the happenings of the Princess Safiya's wedding.
*Bakura's Dream*
"The Sword of Amen-Ra will save us all." Said a voice, it was of a woman's that's for sure.
Bakura's POV
"Sword of Amen-Ra? What the heck is that and what the he-!" I yelled. "What in hell's name am I doing up here?!"
I looked where I was and noticed I was floating. I don't even know why I was floating and not falling. Just then when I was observing my surroundings I notice three figures below me. 2 looked quite familiar and one didn't.
I decided I would go closer and see who those people were. Just when I was near enough to see I saw, ME! And right beside me was, SAFIYA! I was right there looking at myself and Safiya.
But what caught my eye the most was a woman that was talking to them, or rather more us. The woman had long black hair and had pale skin; she was also holding the sword.
"Sword of Amen-Ra what's that?" I heard Safiya say.
"I know what it is. They say it's a sward that was specially crafted for the great warrior named Amen-Ra." Said Bakura, or me. "But wait a minute how does he know what the Sword of Amen-Ra is and I don't?!"
Just then I heard the voice of myself again talking to Safiya and that lady "They say the sword was so specially crafted that it was only of special use for Amen-Ra. People said that at the middle of the handle there was a stone, gem or something that created magical powers. And because of that ornament only the great Amen-Ra could only wield it."
"Exactly, Tomb Robber." The woman said again. "And that is why I," he pointed to an amulet around Safiya's neck "gave you the Radiance of the Sword."
"Radiance of the Sword?" Safiya blinked.
Then I heard myself sigh "Don't you know anything Safiya?! Radiance of the Sword is the ornament that was placed at the middle of the handle."
"Oh!" she said "But why did you give it to me? And what are these magical powers that you say the ornament holds?"
"Well, no one has ever discovered what was the power of Amen- Ra's sword, but to what I know, the sword had such incredible power that it almost destroyed our country! And as for, why she picked you, ask her?"
Then Safiya looked at the old lady again.
Normal POV
*End of Dream*
Bakura was whispering some of the mumbles he was saying in his dream. "Sword of Amen-Ra………… Radiance of the Sword………… Magical Powers………… Aahhh!"
"Master, master, are you alright?" Funsani asked his master.
Bakura was sitting on his bed while sweating hardly on his pale body "Master, are you alright?" Funsani asked once more to Bakura.
Bakura jerked his head at Funsani and gasped "Fu-Funsani whe-where am I?"
"You're in the lair, master."
"Wha-what happened?" he asked.
"Well, master, we were at the wedding trying to go on with our plan to save Safiya bu-"
"Safiya!" Bakura interrupted "Where is she?"
Funsani looked down on the floor and gave a dismayed look to his master "Well, when we were about to initiate our plan, Malik…………captured Safiya."
"What?! That bastard kidnapped Safiya!" Bakura furiously yelled.
"I'm afraid so, master."
"We have to save her!" but before Bakura could stand up from the bed Funsani stopped him.
"Let go of me, Funsani!" Bakura struggled.
"I cannot allow you to do that Master Bakura!" he pushed the Tomb Robber back on the bed.
"Funsani," Bakura whispered.
"I know you want to save Princess Safiya, Master but, not right now, not in this condition! You must rest. Because of your trauma, you were left unconscious and immobile. Your body was left lying limp and useless. You need time to recover so rest! And the war is in 2 days; you might get hurt or even killed!"
"Funsani,"
"I care for you master. Ever since you approached me, you changed my life."
Bakura looked into the eyes of his most faithful servant, and realized something, saw something. There in those brown orbs of his saw a man, a man promised to protect his master. Then Bakura placed his hand on his servant's shoulder and looked into his eyes. "I know you want me to be safe Funsani, but I just can't do that." He confessed "Nothing, and I mean nothing can stop my love for Safiya. I have cheated death more than once and I will not stop here. I love Princess Safiya and nothing will stop me from saving her."
Funsani sighed and closed his eyes. He smiled a bit and removed the white hand on his shoulder "Then if that is your will, I cannot stop you, for love is greater than life."
"Thank you Funsani, thank you."
With that Funsani turned his heel and left the room.
----====***====----
Yami was standing in front of his window looking at the stars of the night and moon of the dark sky. The radiance of the lunar planet shone onto the Pharaoh's skin.
'Don't worry Safiya' he thought 'I will save you. I sill not let go of my promise to father, mother and…… you. I will try all I can, everything just to save you,' he turned his heel and left the throne room.
'Even if my life depends on it!'
Chapter 24, successful! It's long, ne! But who cares. Anyway, I'm just going to give some last information about the faction, K!
*When Bakura was a kid, his father took hi out on a mission of robbery. Bakura was left in an alleyway because his father accidentally forgot him. There he meets Yazid. Yazid saw him and pitied him and took care of him.
After a year they met Funsani. He was just an old commoner. But when Yazid and Bakura heard he was good in thieving they approached him and invited him in their group.
Next was Gahiji. When a ship landed on Egypt the group barricaded half of the ship and killed a couple of men. Then they found Gahiji. He said he didn't want to work here anymore and was determined to leave. Then they agreed and placed Gahiji in the Faction.
Then Adom was the next member. He was an old guard for the Pharaoh but was fired because of disobeying and disrespecting the Pharaoh. Angered, he found Bakura and the group and joined the band of misfits.
Then, the Arshen brothers were found. When Bakura and the group tried to steal from a shop they stopped by another shop and saw two men robbing the shop. They had good tactical schemes which impressed Bakura. That's how they were chosen
And finally Mukhwana, came last. They found him in a dark, deserted alleyway; all bruised, and was nearly dead. Pitied, Bakura took care of him and let him join the Faction.
And that is how the Tomb Robber and his Faction was made.
