Chapter 5 It's You!

Startled by the snowy haired boy's sudden outburst, Jonouchi placed a hand on Ryou's now trembling shoulder, "Ryou what do you mean the village is in danger? Everything's fi..." he stopped in mid-sentence and turned around. Marching into the village was the Pharaoh's army. Knowing it would not be save to stay there, Jonouchi gently shook Shizuka awake, "Come on sis it's time to wake up. "We-"he stopped.

"We're going to play a game." Ryou jumped in. He glanced over to Jonouchi who mouthed a thank you. He just nodded in return.

Shizuka sat up and wiped any evidence of sleepiness from her hazel eyes, "A game?" she yawned and stretched, "How do you play it?"

"It's called 'Where's the Treasure?'. You are the treasure and you have to go and hide as well as you can. Jonouchi and I have to try and find you," Ryou explained, "Oh by the way my name is Ryou."

"So I can hide anywhere I want?" Shizuka asked. She turned to see the guards, "Are they going to play too?"

"Yeah, they are going to try and find you too. So stay away from them. We'll close our eyes so we won't see where you go ok." Jonouchi spoke as he closed his eyes, "Please stay safe little sister," he prayed silently.

"Jonouchi she's gone," Ryou said. He looked over at the blonde to see him trying to hold back tears, "I looked, she ran away from the village," he turned towards the village and gasped.

Jonouchi turned around as well and echoed Ryou's gasp. Nearly half of the village was engulfed in bright red and orange flames that licked the houses like the tongue of a cobra. His heart wrenched at the thought of his parents trapped in the hut. Without thinking, Jonouchi ran into the village. Once he made it to the hut, he started looking, "Mom, dad, where are you?" Suddenly his lungs inhaled smoke and he began to cough. Jonouchi fell to his knees. The name Yugi flashed before his eyes, "Yugi?" he gasped out before falling into darkness.

END OF FLASHBACK

"After that I woke up in a crowded hut chained to a boy who I never dreamed would become the best friend I have ever had." He finished. At that point, Jonouchi was sitting on the floor, Yugi sitting next to him, his head resting on the taller boy's shoulder.

Seto and Yami were speechless for a few moments. But the silence was shattered by the sound of Yugi and Jonouchi's stomachs grumbling, "I take it the two of you are a little hungry?" Yami asked.

Both Yugi and Jonouchi turned crimson red, "How could you tell?" Yugi asked shyly.

Yami chuckled, "Come let us go and get the two of you something to eat. Then if you like I will show you around my palace."

Yugi shifted his position so he was looking up at Jonouchi. His violet eyes were still hinted with fear. He turned to face Yami, "Can Jou come with?" he asked. The tone in his voice matched the expression in his eyes.

Yami sighed deeply and looked over at Seto, "Well it depends on what his master says. My word over Jonouchi is worthless."

"I see no reason that J0nouchi can't go. I am placing you under the Pharaoh's orders at the time. I have some business to attend to in town. But first let us get you two some clean robes and something to eat." Seto said smiling at the two boys.

"Yes of course. Seto would you-"Yami turned to see him already gone, "You know sometimes I think he can read my mind." He turned back to Yugi and Jonouchi, "Now since you are servants in the palace you must wear the appropriate attire. Yugi, since you are under my orders, you will be wearing crimson colored robes. Jonouchi you will be wearing blue robes. The color of you robes indicates who your master is. These colors were chosen because of our eye color." Yami explained as well as he could.

Seto soon returned with two robes. One was a deep crimson color, matching the color of the Pharaoh's eyes. The other robe was the color of sapphires as well as the High Priest's eyes, "They should be the right size." he said as he handed the boys their robes.

"You may go into my bathing room and change. Leave your tunics there. A servant will take care of them. Yami offered pointing to the door to the bathing room, "Then we will eat."

Yugi and Jonouchi obeyed and walked into the bathing room, "Wow!" they both exclaimed. The two boys looked at each other and laughed. In a short time, Yugi and Jonouchi had changed. Yugi was surprised to find his robes fit him almost perfectly.

"Looking good Yuge." Jonouchi teased, causing the color in Yugi's cheeks to match his robes, "How do I look?" he asked.

Yugi smiled as his cheeks went back to normal, "You look great, Jou. Blue is definitely your color. Come on, we had better get out there. I'm getting hungry." The two boys walked out dressed in their new robes.

Yami was to first to notice, "Ah well done. Anzu has shown perfection once again. Oh how rude of me. The two of you must meet Anzu. She is the royal sorceress," There was a knock, "Who is it?" Yami asked.

"It is Anzu, sire. I have come to meet the new servants," answered a voice. The door opened and a girl entered the room. She was dressed in a pale pink robe and her short brown hair just barely reached her shoulders. Her eyes were the color of ice. She turned to see Yugi and Jonouchi and gasped out loud, "It's you!" she exclaimed....

Karria: still trying to find Akkadia and is getting a little worried Ok, this isn't like her.

Yami: I agree. I think Akkadia has truly gone missing.

Yugi: Ok, 3 reviews= chapter 6. We have to try and find akkadia!
