Chapter six
Bakura crawled across the hand cut lawn up to the palace wall. He would have been in the room he was after fifteen minutes ago but his entrance to the castle was blocked by one guard that Ellie actually seemed to care about. He shook his head. He didn't get that girl. But he would have to think of that later. He looked up at the balcony fifty feet above his head and cursed. He put his hands to his mouth and called like an owl. Then he waited... and waited. Nothing. He repeated the action and this time was rewarded. A thin rope was dropped on his head. He rubbed his head and cursed up at it's deliverer. He took hold and the started walking up the side of the palace wall. When he got to the top he threw a hand over the railing and it was caught by someone else. The stranger pulled Bakura over the railing and smirked at him.
"You fool! You did that on purpose! I should cut you into pieces." Bakura seething.
"Ah but then you could not hear my brilliant plan." Answered Seth. He grasped Bakura by his forearm and lifted him to his feet. "By the way you are late."
"If I am it is your fault. Your guard was blocking the way! Hence me coming to you this way. Get on with it though." Bakura walked into the Priests room. He sat in a golden chair and began selecting fruit from a nearby tray. He then lifted one foot and put the muddy thing on Seth's clean table.
"The Pharaoh is beginning to suspect me. He continues to test my loyalty even after the battle we performed for him. We have very little time before he discovers our plans." Seth remained standing.
"That would be your fault then. Even I could tell, you were not really into the fight. That was brilliant what you did with Elvis though. When will the Pharaoh be questioning her?"
"Soon."
"She must be scared as hell. Funny girl."
"She doesn't know yet."
"Where is the fun in that?"
"Do you want to know the plan or not?"
"If you must bore me." He leaned back in the chair as though he were getting ready to sleep.
"I have discovered a way to distract the Pharaoh's sight." Bakura perked up. "There is a passage way from the kitchen into the town." Seth paused so it would sink in. But it didn't seem to work. Bakura just raised a questioning eyebrow at him. Sometimes Seth was truly amazed at this mans stupidity. He shook the thought out of his head slowly and then sighed. "That means that the Pharaoh will look at the kitchens to find out who is helping you into the castle, thus the Pharaoh will think that someone else is helping you."
"Isn't that what Elie is for?" Bakura raised an eyebrow.
"We still need her."
"You mean you still need her." Bakura said smoothly.
"No."
"Yes."
"I am not going to go through this with you! WE need her because of these." Seth held up her deck. Bakura reached across the table and Seth laid them in his hand.
"These are amazing! There are just like the stone tablets! These are Elie's?" Bakura looked up at Seth with disbelief.
"Yes, they are. Now, this would confirm my belief that she is a sorcerer but she has been here for so long and shows no signs of magical talent. I- We need her because I tried to summon these beasts with my rod but it did not work. She has to teach me how to use these."
"Won't she start to wonder why you need her to teach you?"
"I will tell her that it is to finally defeat you."
"What if we just told her our plans?"
"Your crazy!"
"Think about it. She hates the Pharaoh, we hate the pharaoh. and maybe she won't scream every time I use the trapdoor in her room." Bakura leaned back again.
The thief had a point. The three of them shared loathing of the ruler. However, why would Elvis trust either of them. She had no reason to. Seth did not truly trust Bakura anyway. There were so many ways that this could go wrong.
"Your not thinking this through you fool. Elvis does not trust either of this. And you are forgetting who her friends are. Nara and Mahaado. Elvis is loyal to them and those two fallow the pharaoh around as though he were a god!"
"Isn't he supposed to be one?" Bakura said questioning the priest's own beliefs.
"If a man bleeds he is not a god. And even if he were, there would still be ways of destroying him." Seth shot back.
"Yadda yadda yadda." Bakura mocked him. "Yeah so I get it, now tell me what it is I have to do to make your plan work."
"This is what you must do." Seth began, "First you will find the path and hide within the opening. I will make sure a women enters and when she does you must make it seem as though you have just arrived. Crawl out and let the idiot woman do the rest." It was simple but flawless. It would give them both time.
"Thats it? I mean, no really, thats all I have to do is hide in some rat hole and wait for a woman to walk by. Your not one for adventure Seth." The thief complained.
"Look its not like we are taking over tonight. This is just to give us some time."
"Yeah, yeah. I will do it. No fun and a waste of time. But your supposed to be the brains behind all this."
"You'll get your gold in the end, so stop complaining, but for now I am calling the shots." Seth hissed. "There are bigger reasons for this than your gold."
"Seth you fool, you think I am really here for the riches. I can achieve wealth anywhere, I am here for revenge!" A cold smile played across his lips as he disappeared back over the edge of the balcony.
!#$&()+)(&$#!
Elvis woke up with a start in the morning. A weird feeling had settled in the bottom of her stomach. She rubbed the sleep from her eyes and then gently stepped out of her cot, and onto Mahaado's chest. He grunted and opened one eye. He looked up at her and gave a small smile. She lifted her foot quickly.
"Sorry! I forgot."She knelt at the edge of her bed and looked down at him. Bruises covered most of the left side of his chest. "I should get Nara, she has a wonderful salve for getting rid of things just like that."
"And let her fret about me? I don't think so."
"She is probable worried sick about you! The least you can do is let her know that you are alive. Not to mention I can't sleep because of the thunder that is coming from your stomach!" She smiled warmly at him.
"I hate it when you are right!" He pushed himself up. "Okay, okay, lets get this over with. I have to return to the training center. They will have us doing drills for a month straight!"
"Kay, something to eat and then you can go." She stepped out of bed making sure to stay clear of Mahaado this time. He turned the other way as she pulled on her work clothing and then she did the same for him. After making themselves presentable they headed for the kitchen, but what they found was a garbage heap.
"Nara?" Elvis whispered into the room. Sobs filled ever inch and went into every corner. Ellie's jaw dropped when she saw the wet, red face of Nara coming toward her. Quickly she braced herself as she was pounced by the overweight woman.
"Heis gonnand I," she gulped in air, "couldhavsavedim!" She dug her face into the younger girl's shoulder and Ellie crumpled with the weight.
"Nara. Nara. Its okay, he is-" Ellie could barely hear herself over the ruckus of the older womans sobs. "NARA!" She was shocked into silence. Nara stared wide-eyed at Ellie. "He's alive! He's here." Mahaado pushed the door slowly to the side giving Nara a full view of his living self.
Nara exploded into tears all over again. "YOUR ALIVE!" She tackled him. He protested and she loosened her bear like hug.
"It is good to see you too!" Mahaado grinned and grimaced at the same time.
Nara quickly dried her face. "Okay enough of these tears. If you are safe then there is no need to get all upset." Nara told herself. It was then that she seemed to seem what kind of state her kitchen was in. "Look at this mess! How could I let my kitchen become like this. Out you two! I have to clean before the other servants get up! Out, OUT!" Nara pushed them out of the kitchen. Ellie could tell that Nara was ashamed she had let herself become so distraught. The kitchen would be returned to its' normal state within the hour.
Elvis turned and walked face first into Mahaado's back.
"Step down, you are relieved of your duty. The Pharaoh will be seeing the young lady now." Ellie involuntary stepped behind Mahaado to hide herself. You would be a fool not to fear one of the Pharaoh's personal guards. Trained as assassins, they were the only ones that got as close to the ruler as his priests. This one had dark skin and a shaped goatee. He was decorated with gold armor.
Mahaado's eyes showed that he would rather do any thing but leave Ellie to this ravenous dog, but he must fallow orders from his superior. Head hung low, he stepped to the side and reveled the feeble shape of Ellie. Mahaado could not raise his eyes to meet Ellie's. This frightened her. The over confident Mahaado was acting weird, and if the rumors were true, it was because when a Pharaoh's guard approached you it meant something was horribly wrong.
Without a warning the guard snatched Ellie's wrist and began to tug her down the corridor to the Pharaohs thrown room. "Pharaoh Atem orders your presence in his thrown room." Nothing more. No joking with this one. Serious to the bone. So Ellie didn't even try to employ her charm. Like so many times before she was pulled into a room where others would be free to poke and prod at her. Thrown into the room she dropped to one knee and lowered her head. It was habit now. She could barely see the Pharaoh's feet in his golden saddles. Next to him was his council, his priest, Seth. She dared not look at him.
"Rise." Atem spoke. At first confused she staggered and then slowly rose. This was different. After standing, Atem fallowed her example. He stood in all his majesty before her and she could not have felt smaller. Finally she dared to look at him and could not look away. He was dressed in a fine white tunic held up by a gold platted belt. Gold and white bandages covered his forearms and his caves. Ellie felt dirty in her common dish rags. It was times like this that she missed the uniform system at school. It was times like tis that she missed school! He took a dramatic step forward. But it did not have the effect that he was trying to accomplish because Elvis's mind was drifting else where. At the moment she was trying with all her power not to meet the gaze of Seth, for she knew he was staring unblinkingly at her. "Are these yours?" Her deck!
"My deck!"Elvis cried out.
"How do you use these?" Atem asked.
"Use 'um? It's just a game, you play against another person and when someone loses and someone wins you, well... Thats all I think..." Ellie didn't really know what the Pharaoh wanted her to say.
"How do you control the monsters how do you get them out. How do you command them?"Light bulb! The Pharaoh thought that these were real creatures. Weird!
"They don't come out, you don't control them, it is just a game that kids play. Nothing magical."Ellie explained.
"How were you planning on using them?" Atem asked louder.
"But I wasn't-"
"To assassinate me!" Rage entered his voice.
"No!"
"I have my own ways of finding out what I want! Seth!" Without hesitation Seth raised his rod directly at Ellie. Drowsiness consumed her. Her mind was being controlled yet again.
Seth was fighting a battle within his own mind. He knew the pharaoh would be asking questions that he did not want Ellie to answer. If he tried to control her answers though surely the Pharaoh would notice and proclaim Seth a traitor. He would have to hope that she did not give anything away.
"Ask her about the cards again!" Atem ordered his priest. Seth looked at the blank green eyes of the woman he had been watching for months now.
"Tell me all you know about the cards." Simple enough.
"These cards are copies of an ancient game Egyptians use to play. It is a game that was invented by Pegasus in the far future. In that time people like myself play this game of mock magic to entertain ourselves and win prizes." She stopped there.
Atem sat up in his chair. He ran a hand threw his hair. There was more to this girl than he could have ever imagined. The future. That meant that he would have a weapon against his enemies that they would never believe. She was the key, if he had information of the future, that meant that he would always be one step ahead of his foes. But he had to be sure. No mistakes.
"Ask her what year she comes from." Atem ordered his priest.
"What time did you come from?" Seth cursed in his mind. Surely his lord would try to use her. Could Seth still pull off his plans? Elvis cut into his thoughts.
"The year 2002."
"Are you a sorceress?"
"Are you a sorceress?" Seth copied his master.
"No."
"How did she come to our time." Atem asked his servant.
"How did you come to our time?"
"I was sent here by someone that had that necklace." Her arm rose slowly and stopped when it became level with the Pharaoh's millennium puzzle.
!#$&()+)(&$#!
"But thats impossible! That would mean that he would have to be alive thousands of years! No one can live that long! Not even with the magic of an item. Or can it? You are his priest you should know his powers!" Bakura said accusingly.
"It doesn't! At least I don't think so." Seth paced in his room, like he always did when he didn't know an answer. "It could be his decedent."
"But that means we will have failed in our mission!" Bakura growled. His white hair fell in his face. He brushed it away angrily.
"Not exactly. She said the person that sent her looked like Atem but shorter. But other than that identical."
"Ewe. What if it is Atem really old?" Bakura shuddered.
"No, younger."
"Reborn? Atem is going to be reborn in the future?"
"It's the only thing that fits." Seth sat in a chair as though exhausted.
"So even if we succeed, the tyrant will only come back later." Bakura said. Seth simply nodded his head deep in thought and only half listening to what his partner in crime had to say.
"But that is not a problem. Ellie- I mean Elvis said she saw me there too."
"It seems as though we will be fighting this cruel man forever."
!#$&()+)(&$#++++
Seth was now alone. This made everything different. Ellie was now valuable to the Pharaoh and himself. Seth still needed her to help him work the cards. Now how could he make this work? Slowly the wheels in his head began to turn. After pacing for hours, he finally sat down and started to work on the small details of his new plan.
!#$&()+)(&$++++
Bakura was crawling in the filthiest place he had ever been, and that was saying a lot! He was in the old garbage shoots of the palace kitchen that were no longer used. Seth's so called "secret passage". Cursing he rummaged though the ancient filth. At least he would get to do something exciting besides letting a stupid slave see him. He would walk away tonight dirty but rich. He guessed it was a fair trade. Not to mention tonight was a necessary for Seth's new plan to work. Bakura swiped at the next pile of trash to discover the bared entrance to the palace. All he had to do now was get in. He turned around in the small space he had and laid on his back. With all his force he kicked open the gated area. Metal and wood clattered to the floor. Bakura pulled himself out of the cabinet. Now to wait.
As he did so, he brushed himself off and took this chance to see the area that Ellie worked in daily. Obviously he was in the part of the kitchen that was no longer in use. Against his better judgment he swung an arm across the counter top, sending pots and plates crashing to the floor. He had to be noticed.
It worked. A shriek from a nearby room. The girl Seth was sending repeatedly to go get him basins of water that he just dumped out of his balcony. She slowly poked a head from around the huge wooden doors. She dropped the vase full of water and it crashed to the floor.
He was only supposed to make her black out. Not kill. She was the only witness. He walked toward her and she stood there like a deer in headlights. He held out a hand to her. He eyes sifted toward it before she took off down the hallway, long brown hair fallowing afterward. Bakura cursed. He chased after her. She begged as she ran for him to spare her life. He grabbed the back off her tunic when it was in reach and pulled hard. She fell back onto the floor. He stepped over her and sneaked down at her shivering body.
"Women are more trouble than they are worth!" With that he placed a cloth over her mouth and nose and waited for her to breath. Yet another gift from the High Priest. Now for the fun part of the plan. He had crawled into the castle, got caught and disabled her. It was time for his reward. He just had to find it.
Meanwhile...
"Please let me out! Tell me what happened! Tell me anything!" She begged the guards that she knew were outside of the room she was locked in. Elvis thought back to her encounter with the Pharaoh. She had woken up from a stupor and seen the look of greed on his face. Also in the room was Seth looking as though he had just witnessed the greatest tragedy ever. He did it again. He had dug into her mind. She could have said anything! She had no idea why she was in this room with a tiny window and nothing but a bucket and blanket of the thinest material. Atemu had ordered her containment and thats when two of the Pharaoh's guards had dragged her away.
She renewed her effort to bust the door. "LET! ME! OUT!" Bang, bang, bang. She slid to the floor and pulled the small bowl of water toward her. She lifted it to her lips and sipped gingerly. It was all that they had given her. She fell heavily against the wooden doors and started her pleading yet again.
Back on the farm... j/k I meant with Bakura...
Damn passageways! Always confusing people! How hard was it to find doors made of pure gold? They practically shouted "Here I Am!". But try as he might he could not find them.
He turned around a corner to find some guards coming his way. He ducked under a cloth covered table. Yet another action against his better judgment. But he waited impatiently for them to pass. When he was sure it was safe again. He pulled himself from underneath the table. His jaw dropped. There directly above him was two golden doors in the ceiling.
"Seth." He growled. This would have been a helpful hint. Now to find a way to get up there. It didn't take long, his ring was shaking violently. Across the hall was a carving. In the center was the eye that graced each millennium item. As though being called the millennium ring raced toward the imprint of the eye. Bakura only hesitated a moment before he let himself be pulled. It clicked into the wall as though it was carved from the very stone. The imprints in the wall began to glow a bright golden color. The ground beneath him shook. It was a luck that no guards heard the ruckus. Bakura looked behind him at the gold doors. Out of the ground rough edged stairs were rising slowly. Bakura could not help himself, he whistled. It was an amazing sight. He took slow steps up the now set staircase. He pushed at the doors and they went up. Carefully the thief pulled himself into the room.
The walls were covered by waterfalls that set a hum across the room. The ceiling was painted to look like the northern lights were across the night sky. In the center of the room was a statue of the dark magician. He held in one hand a small golden ring that would fit snugly on top of any persons head. Bakura pulled a bag of sand from a pocket within his red coat. He timed it perfectly. The two were switched. Bag for crown. Bakura smiled at his own success and began to walk triumphantly back toward the stairs. A second rumble. The stone figure of the dark magician was slowly waking up.
Meanwhile...
Elvis was determined to find out why she was here. Hour after hour she had tormented the guards outside with her complaints. Still strong with fight, she pounded against the wooden door again! Her voice was raspy, so all she could do was bang on the door. Minutes past when finally she was answered. The door was thrown open knocking over the bowl which held the girls drinking water. Not caring she looked up at the guard.
"Your not coming out! Not until the Pharaoh wants you! So sit down and shut up!" A hand was at his head rubbing his temples. He looked down at the upturned bowl. "Nothings coming till tomorrow, so drink what you can!" And he slammed the door hard. But there was nothing to save. The water was gone and no food until tomorrow. She sighed and went to her small peephole. She could see beyond the palace grounds out into the desert. At least she had a view of the sunset.
Bakura...
He slowly turned on his heal. Then frowned. Not what he wanted to see. Cursing he pulled out his blade and readied himself. The Pharaoh's faithful pet was now making its way slowly toward Bakura. Bakura struck quickly but to no avail. The tip of his blade broke off. He threw it to the side and pulled at his millennium ring. A creature began to grow out of thin air.
"Fight!" Bakura ordered. Then turned. Against any man Bakura was confident he would prevail! But magic was another thing. Magic could only be beat with magic! Any fool knew that! He ran towards the stairs as they began to sink back into the floor. He jumped down and let the stairs carry him the other 30 feet down. There was no way for anyone to miss the noise that was coming from the hidden room now. The two beasts were deep in battle. Bakura knew he must make his escape before he was forced to kill. He went to the first place he could think of. Ellie's room. It took him a mere two minutes before he was safely outside the walls of the pharaohs home. When he climbed onto his brown steed he took out his treasure. In his hand was the golden crown. Just for good measure he placed it on his head. It fit perfectly.
!#$&()+)(&$#++++
Seth stood at the edge of his balcony watching the sun go down. He waited patiently for the alarm to sound. That is if his idiot of a partner could figure out the clues he had given him. But as pressing as matters were at the moment he could not keep his mind from drifting to Ellie. His excuse was he was worried because he needed her to defeat the Pharaoh. But it was obvious that it was anything but that. No one was aloud to see the Pharaoh's prisoner. Seth had no idea what was happening to his Ellie at the moment and it was tearing him apart. No! It wasn't her he was worried about! Only the mission! That is all that matters. Or at least that is what he told himself. Who knew that all those talks with Ellie and all those times he had watched her from afar would soon grow into more? He pulled the hat that Ellie hated from his head and dropped it over the edge of the balcony.
Footsteps. Seth braced himself for what was next. It would be a long night. A slave ran into the room and bowed deeply. "My lord, the great thief has broken into the palace yet again. The Pharaoh calls on your assistance." Seth walked past the man to help the Pharaoh solve this mystery.
!#$&()+)(&$#++++
Bakura had escaped and with the Pharaoh's crown no less! The only one that had seen him was a servant girl that had been in the kitchen at the time. She had told the Pharaoh everything. Now all that worked in the kitchens were in cages being questioned. This meant bad news for Ellie, she was already in a bad fix, and she worked in the kitchen. It wouldn't be long before Atemu would call on her. It was a good thing too. Ellie had not eaten for two days now, And her water supply had failed to come. She sat back under her window and pulled her blanket over her trying to get any warmth from it.
The door was pulled in and there was the guard that had brought her to the Pharaoh. Ellie stood without being asked and stepped out of her cell. He took her arm and led her to the Pharaoh's lunch room. In side were three women. The guard pushed her in and then slammed the door behind her. Ellie stepped forward. Two of the women were filling a huge tub with what looked like scented water. The third and younger girl came to Ellie and began to undress her of her rags. They washed and preened Elvis until she shined. Then she was dried and given new clothes. Simple but clean. It was a natural beige and felt soft against her skin. Rarely did any clothes fit Ellie because she had become so small but anything supplied by the Pharaoh was meant to cling to the body and this did. Ellie looked at her reflection in the water and was shocked. She looked nothing like the old 2002 Elvis. Her hair fell to the middle of her back when wet. Her face and body was thinner. It was like the old Elvis had been cut in half.
A door opened. The other girls fled. Ellie looked up and to her horror there before her was Atemu and Seth.
"Sit." Ellie did.
"Seth." Atemu commanded.
Seth raised his rod yet again. He looked tired, like this is what he had been doing for hours and he had. Testing all of the hundreds of kitchen servants. He lifted his gaze to meet Ellie's. Both of them were weak. Seth turned the other way when his rod began to glow.
"Do you mean to kill the Pharaoh?" Seth asked.
"No."
"Ask her who does."
"Do you know who is trying to kill Atemu?"
"Yes."
"Who?"
"Who?"
"Bakura."
"Who is helping him into the palace?" Seth asked.
"I do not know."
"Are you helping Bakura into the Palace?"
"No." Ellie answered.
"One last thing, Tell her to tell you all she knows about me in the future."
"Tell me all you know about the Pharaoh in your time." Ellie could not remember everything about her old life when conscious. But when unconscious, her mind was like an open book. He thoughts raced to her first day of school.
"So thats where I heard your name before! Your Yugi Moto! Its nice to meet you!" Elvis's face was lit up and was shining like a beckon. Yugi just laughed.
"In the future Atemu shares a body with a boy named Yugi Moto. He carries the Pharaoh's millennium puzzle." Ellie stopped.
"How is this possible?" Atemu asked himself. It was if lightning had struck. He looked down at his item and smiled. "Release her."
Seth did not like the smug look on his masters face, but he released his hold on her anyway. She fell to her knees exhausted. Strangely enough, Atemu helped the girl to her feet. He stood just a little to closely to Ellie, Seth thought.
"What happened?" Ellie asked not really aware of who's arms she was in.
"You, my dear, have shown me the secret to eternal youth. I will always rule! And you are the key." He smiled down at her. Slowly, he lowered his head and planted a kiss on a surprised Ellie.
Her first kiss was with an evil tyrant! Her luck. But for some reason she welcomed it. A kiss. Someone cared about her. Someone special. Seth. Seth! Ellie broke away. She stared wide-eyed at Seth. What would he think of her? She could slowly feel her heart and his breaking.
"...Seth." Ellie whispered.
He stood there as if made of stone. His hair covering his eyes. Ellie couldn't figure out what his emotions were.
"Oh, I understand." Atemu smiled again. "High Priest, she does not feel comfortable with you watching. Leave us." Atemu moved in for another kiss. "The big bad man won't bother you any more. I must say you are much more attractive than when I first met you. I daresay, this might be fun."
Seth turned to leave, his knuckles white. Ellie stepped toward him. "Seth I didn't-"
"High Priest!" He corrected. "Best not keep the Pharaoh waiting young virgin. He will be waiting for you."
"But you..." She looked back at Atemu and saw the look of lust on his face. "Please?"
"You belong to him. You are his property. As am I." He looked at her through his brown locks of hair. What was it that he saw in her face? Sorrow? Pain? Despair? Love? No, she was just a girl in a bad situation, she just wanted him to help her. Damn it, and he
would. "My lord. She has not been cleansed by the priests."
"It is fine. Surely she is safe." Atemu said standing closer to his prize.
"I must warn you of the dangers sire." Come on Seth, think, he told himself. "She is young, fertile. Surely she will take seed and produce a heir."
Atemu was now looking at Elvis as though she were disgusting. Ellie felt disgusting. Just the thought of having child made her sick to her knees.
"Take her." Atemu stepped back again. "Don't bring her back until she is cleansed."
"Yes master." Seth took Ellie's forearm and led her out of the room.
"Seth!"
"Yes master?"
"Send in the other girls." Atemu said as he laid down on his small sofa.
"Yes master."
The two made a quick escape and Seth copied his order to a guard outside. He dragged Ellie as far away from the Pharaoh as he possibly could. It wasn't until they were in the gardens that he finally stopped. He let go of her and stepped away.
"High priest... thank you." It was the only thing she could think to say.
"He will expect you back in a day. I haven't done anything but buy you time." His back was turned toward her.
"So you are going to 'cleanse' me?"
"I don't want to!"
"Can't you make something up?"
He turned toward her, almost angry. "Like what, what could I say to that Tyrant that would make him stop chasing after something he wants?"
"Why not something like the magic doesn't work because I of who I am?" He gave her a quizzical look. "You know because I am from the future. Like it would kill me or something. I don't know, anything!"
Seth started pacing. This could work. He stopped and looked at Ellie. "That could work. That will work! Your a genius!"
"I don't like to brag but..." She shrugged her shoulders and looked down. Seth stepped up to her.
"But you have every right to." The last time they were this close was when the two of them had been dancing... horribly. He looked down into eyes.
Almost scared, Ellie looked back up at him. He placed a hand around her thin waste. The other tangled its self into her hair. Ellie was blushing like mad, but did not stop him. Her hands clung to his shoulders. He lowered his lips to meet hers. She raised herself onto her toes. The two met and kissed. Seth pulled her against him and kissed her deeper.
!#$&()+)(&$#++++
Bakura sighed. "This is only going to cause problems." He looked away from the couple and lowered himself from the outer palace walls. He disappeared into the dark walkways of the city.
