Disclaimer; I do not own YuGiOh
Heey peeps,
I'm so sorry I didn't update for so long…shame on me! Aw…well…at least now I'm back to give you all a nice chappie!
And Thanks to everyone who reviewed, you're the ones that made me write this chapter!
Well, Enjoy!
"Let her go!" Akina heard a young man yell.
The guard was distracted and Akina used her opportunity to kick him in his knees and break free of his grasp.
She grabbed her sword and looked around for the one who helped her.
She saw another couple of guards; they were standing around a handsome looking young man with spiky hair and yellow bangs. He had fancy looking Egyptian clothes and a lot of jewellery. Akina recognized him as the Pharaoh.
"So, I suppose you're Akina?" the Pharaoh asked the overwhelmed girl.
Akina nodded, she just stood there letting all the information in…
/ Why is the Pharaoh helping me? Isn't he supposed to sit on his throne all day and make difficult decisions? Why would he even come down here in the first place/
"You were supposed to bring her to me, not to kill her!" The Pharaoh said to the guard who attacked Akina. She was back to her senses, now that the Pharaoh spoke again.
"I am sorry sire" the guard said ashamed, still in pain from the kick Akina gave him.
"Yeah, sure you are." The Pharaoh replied. He turned to Akina.
"You will come with me now." He said to her. It was more like an order.
Akina frowned; she wouldn't let her be ordered around. Not after all she had to do to shake off those lousy guards.
"Well, I'm sorry but I don't think that is going to happen." Akina said firmly. "Did you really think that I would just come with you like that? After all that's happened?"
The Pharaoh was taken aback (although he didn't show it).
"You'll have to" he simply stated "you are surrounded by my guards, in case you didn't notice."
"I've beat them once, I can do it twice." Akina said becoming very irritated by the spiky-haired teen that called himself a Pharaoh.
The Pharaoh nudged his guards en they stepped aside showing Akina's mother who was tied down with ropes.
Akina's eyes went wide. How could they do such a thing? She had to find a way to free her mother; she didn't know what the Pharaoh would do with her.
"Let her go!" Akina yelled. Her fists were clenched and were starting to go white. Her eyes that now held anger were locked onto the Pharaoh's. He looked at her with a strange sparkling in his eyes. Maybe it was because he liked Akina's reaction or because he had more power than her. But it certainly wasn't fear.
That angered Akina more. He should be afraid, afraid of what Akina could do to them. She could just knock them all out if it wasn't for the sharp blades the guards were holding to her mother's throat.
She had to make a difficult decision. Wasn't the great Pharaoh supposed to do that? He wasn't helping her, but his own guards. Pathetic…
"So what will it be?" the Pharaoh said looking closely at Akina. "Will you come with me to the palace, or will you try to escape and risk your mother's live?"
Akina thought this over. He was right. Even if there was a possibility that she would knock out all the guards, there was still a high risk that her mother would get killed.
And she couldn't let that happen. The loss of her father was already painful enough.
She sighed. / shit…/
"Okay, I will come with you." She spat out. She dropped her sword. The guards came up to her and tied her hands together with a rope.
"Good, take them to the palace." The Pharaoh said. "And make sure those civilians get back to work." There were a lot of people watching the Pharaoh take the girl away.
The walk to the palace was quite. Akina was held by two guards on each side of her and behind her was her mother, also held by a guard. Akina felt guilty now for her actions and big mouth. Her mother didn't deserve this.
She looked ahead of her and saw the huge palace. It amazed her how big a building could be, she never saw one this huge.
She now looked back at the Pharaoh. What was he going to do with her and her mother after he brought them to the palace? Whatever it was, Akina would make sure that her mother would stay unharmed. It was her own fault that they where captured so she had to bear the consequences.
They where now standing in front of the palace gates.
"Open the gates!" the guard on the left of Akina yelled.
"Who is passing trough?" a man's voice called from the other side.
"His majesty, his guards and his prisoners." The same guard yelled back.
His prisoners? Where they possessions or something? Akina glared at the Pharaoh, who noticed it and looked away. / Ha, too scared to look me in the eyes, huh/
The Gates opened and they were walking again. It looked like ages before they finally reached the great wooden doors that would give them entrance to the palace.
Akina realized that if she stepped through those doors, her freedom would be finito.
So she struggled against the grip of the two guards. The Pharaoh looked at her struggle.
He found her quite amusing to look at. Not only because she was pretty, but also because of her attitude. He saw her giving up, the guards where too strong for her. He began walking again.
He went to a door at their left, and whispered something to one of the guards. Then he went through the door and left them alone.
The guards dragged Akina and her mother trough a long hall. Then they went down a staircase and it was very dark in there. The only light came from the torches on the wall.
The walls were all made from big stones. It looked much like a dungeon.
It was a dungeon. Akina saw the cells and felt like the cold, iron bars where laughing at her.
They where put in a cell. Akina's wrists were chained against the wall. Her mother was only tied down with ropes. They obviously thought Akina would cause more trouble than her mother would.
When the guards were gone, Akina looked at her mother. She looked sad and hopeless. Guilt ate Akina whole. She had to say something.
"Mom," she began, "I'm sorry."
Her mother looked at her with her now lifeless eyes. She sighed.
"Don't be," she said, "After all, you had to defend yourself."
"But now they've taken you also." Akina said, hanging her head.
"I would have come with you anyway." Her mother said soft.
Akina looked up. "Thanks mom." She said thankfully. A tear fought his way to her cheek.
Her mother noticed.
"Don't cry sweetie." She said sussing.
"Don't worry mom, I'm going to get us out of here. I promise!" Akina said, closing her eyes and letting the tears flow freely.
Suddenly they heard the door of the dungeons close. Was someone listening all the time?
Well that was it.
I hope you enjoyed it. (yeah…) the only thing I can say is R&R!
Ciao
