Chapter 4: Punishment
"Thank you, Jou," Yugi said as they walked back to the servents' chambers.
" It was nothing, Yugi," the blond replied. His brown eyes widened as Yugi hugged him once more. He smiled down at the tri colored boy.
" Jou, why do you live here? Did you come here for a job?" the boy said curiously. His big violet eyes filled with innocence. Jou stiffened and his face darkened. He remained silent and his blond bangs concealed his eyes. Yugi stared at him and it dawned on him. It seemed he touched a sensitive subject. The boy decided to change the topic.
"Jou, I'm hungry," Yugi whined.
Jou turned to him. A goofy smile spread across him face. " Me too, lets see if the Cook has anything to give us," he said brightly. Yugi smiled and ran to the kitchen. Jou stayed behind for awhile. Yugi's previous question brought back countless memories that were not wanted. He will never tell that childlike boy his horrible past. Never. His past would horrify Yugi. His gentle soul was far too sensitive.
"Jou! Come on!" Yugi called.
"Coming!" Jou yelled back and ran towards the spiky haired teen. Still that promise remained in Jou's heart.
************
Yugi smiled brightly as the Cook had generously given the two boys slices of baked bread. It was so soft and warm...a nice meal in the middle of the day. He glanced over at Jou and saw that the blond was devouring his slices. Yugi shook his head and smiled. Jou caught his stare.
"What?" he asked with a mouthful which made Yugi laugh. "What?"
Yugi shook his head and laughed more. "Nothing."
Jou shrugged and finished off his bread. After that he looked at Yugi. "Now what?"
"I suppose we have to go back and do our jobs..."Yugi said as Jou nodded. As if on cue a guard made his way over to the two boys.
"Yugi, the Pharoah requests you," he said simply. Yugi glanced at Jou once more and followed the guard.
**********
The guard led Yugi to the throne room where the Pharaoh and the High Priest were waiting for him. Yugi shivered slightly under the Pharaoh's cold red eyed gaze. The High Priest also stared at Yugi with cold blue eyes.
"Slave..." the Pharoah began and raised an elegant eyebrow. Yugi noticed the anger seeping out slowly and frantically thought about what he had done wrong.
"Why do you not bow to the Pharaoh?" Seth asked. Yugi bowed to the Pharaoh quickly and remained on his knees. He was shaking slightly, but refused to show the two men.
"Yes, my Pharaoh?" he asked.
" I saw that you did not fulfill your job," he said slowly as he watched Yugi trying to contain his fear. *Useless...* he thought. " So I have come to a decision."
"What is that, my Pharaoh?" Yugi said as he bowed his head.
"You will now follow me everywhere, except my chambers and the bathing room," he commanded.
"Yes, Pharaoh Yami," he whispered. He thought about his free time and how it slipped away.
"You may now rise to your feet, slave," the Pharaoh said curtly. He stood up as Yugi did also. Seth smirked slightly as he saw the dejected look on the small boy. He had listened to the Pharaoh's plan and it amused him.
"Seth," the Pharoah said as he turned his head.
"Yes, Pharaoh?" he answered.
"I want you to take care of that slave, Jou," Yami ordered with an evil glint.
The High Priest bowed. " Of course," he said and went to find Jou.
Yugi's eyes were round with shock. "No! You can't punish him! he yelled.
Red eyes shifted to the small boy, " Oh? I can't?"
"No! Jou don't deserve it! Thats heart-" Yugi let out a cry as the Pharaoh's hand struck his face.
"Do not speak to me in such a matter! Maybe you need to punished as well," the Pharaoh hissed and grabbed Yugi by the hair. He dragged Yugi away to where Seth and Jou were.
Yugi's eyes widen when he saw Jou. The tall blond was shackled and pushed against a wall. The High Priest was looming over him and cracked a whip. The situation was obvious.
"Pharaoh?" Seth asked when he saw Yami.
"I decided to punish this runt as well. He will see everything," Yami said as he pulled Yugi's hair. The boy let out a pained cry as he lifted off his feet by his hair. Jou's eyes were blazing with fury.
"Leave him alone!" he yelled. The Pharaoh shrugged and dropped Yugi on the floor.
"Begin," the Pharaoh ordered.
Jou grimanced as the whip fell on his bare back. He refused to show these men what they wanted to hear. They wanted his cries of pain. The High Priest snarled when the blond showed no emotion and whipped him repeatedly. The hits became harder and faster with every crack. Finally the pain became unbearable for Jou and a scream escaped his mouth.
"Jou!" Yugi cried as he watched his new friend being whipped. He watched red blood seep out of the many marks on Jou's back and winced. Tears gushed out of his large eyes and fell to the floor.
Yami smiled in content as he witnessed both of them in pain. One from physical pain and the other in emotional pain. He glanced at Jou. The blond's eyes were glazed over with pain, his mouth open to let out agonizing screams and his body was growing limp. Finally his head dropped and his eyes closed. Seth raised an eyebrow when Jou passed out and stopped.
"Enough..." Yami ordered and the High Priest nodded and untied Jou. Jou fell to the ground with a hard thud. Seth smirked at the fallen blond and left after that.
"Now...for you, my weak servant..." Yami mushed and grabbed Yugi by his shirt, " You witnessed your friend being beaten...if you cross me again, that will be your punishment, understand?" Yugi nodded sadly. "Good."
Yugi's eyes grew large and let out a choked cry as the Pharaoh punched him in the stomach. Blood trickled down hiis chin from his mouth. His vision grew dim and the last thing he saw were the Pharaoh's red eyes and cold smile. The Pharaoh watched the small boy crumble to the floor in disdain and left, leaving two boys sprawled on the cold ground...
