Chapter 2

Of voices and awakenings.

Casey made her way back to the servants' quarters; it was well past the curfew that the pharaoh had been oh to kind to set for the servants and slaves, but she didn't care, the prince had kept her in until she had his floors so clean he could see himself in them.

"Stuck-up, self-centred git, the day he becomes pharaoh is the day Egypt will fall…well that won't be for a while thank Ra." she mumbled to her self trying to get the feeling back in her hands. It had taken her hours to clean that floor, and she wasn't a big fan of cleaning them either, people spilt stuff on them and walked dirt and mud on them and she didn't want to think of what some of those stains were.

Selena was also making her way to the servant's quarters walking the opposite way to Casey. She was lost in thought, I mean she and Casey were never picked to be the personal slaves for the high priests, the prince or the pharaoh, so what was different about today?

Both girls didn't see the other one coming and walked head first into each other.

"OW!" they both said at once as they bumped heads, and once they saw who they had walked into they both hugged.

"Hey how was your da-." Selena was cut short as she heard for foot steps approaching, they were both already late and if they were found they were sure to be in big trouble. "Quick in here" she said and pulled Casey and her into the closest room to where they were standing and just in time to had they stayed in the corridor they would have been found.

The footsteps got closer and soon they could hear the voices of whoever was walking by.
"So did you get the Pharaoh to agree to help us?" the first voice was saying.

"Yeah, he said he'd have all his guards and servants checked out." The second replied, his voice was deeper than the others.

"And what about his slaves?" the first voice asked at this the second one started laughing.

"His slaves! You have go to be kidding, why would a slave have the Blue eyes White Dragon or the Dark Magician girl as a ka?" the deeper voice said still laughing, Casey growled at that comment, why did people think slaves lower than them, stupid stereotype. Once the voices had dies down so that they couldn't hear them any more, Casey and Selena made a dash for their original destination for some well deserved rest.

Early the next morning they were woken early to take breakfast to the Prince and the High priest. Both girls were curious as to who the voices they heard last night belonged to. It was still on Selena's mind as she made her way to the High priests quarters and ended up taking a wrong turn which caused her to be 15 minutes late, which is not a good thing to be with the high priest, as she walked through the door, his cold harsh voice sounded, "your late."

" I know, I took a wrong turn, sorry." She said placing down the tray with his food on it down. "Heres your food, now eat up so you can be a big strong boy." She said in a mocking baby voice, very surprising to the priest that a mere slave would have the guts to talk to him like that, seeing that she had caught him off guard Selena let out a smirk then said, "I'll just be getting to work then, what would you like me to do today?"

Seth looked at her then said, "You can do the washing, for starters." He said as he started to eat his breakfast.

Casey Hurried towards Yami's room, she prayed to the gods that she wasn't late, as she reached the large golden double doors to his room; she walked in backwards as her hands were full with the tray with his breakfast. "Here you are Prince Yami, Your breakfast is served." She said with a smile placing the tray down on a table and walking over to the curtains and pulling them open to let the sunlight shine in. It was then that she realised that he was still asleep.

'Lazy bum…I really should wake him up shouldn't i?' she thought. Then she got an idea. She picked up the bucket of cold water used to clean the floors and chucked it on the prince.

"AH!" the prince shouted as he sat up dripping wet, his hair sticking to his face. The first thing he saw was his slave laughing. "YOU!"

"Uh oh…I guess I didn't think this through very well did I? He he." Casey said realising maybe it wasn't such a good idea to wake him. "Well I think I might just go and…um…do some washing, morning enjoy your breakfast, BYE." Casey said running from the room just praying that she wouldn't get into much trouble, she felt so stupid for doing that, but it was just so tempting.

Angeltrz: Yeah sorry this one was so short, the next one will be longer.
