Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! and Una1 owns most of the characters and their personalities except for the past life of Mai which is sort of mine and the child which will be later named as to not give away the story line. That is all.
Please note that this is not a historically accurate fiction. It is fiction.
Important note: To get the story moving along and to get to the important stuff I'll be skipping forward in time a little. Thanx for your patience for the update. I was waiting for at least one review. I would also like to add that I've had this written for a while but had History Day(70 of my grade)due so… yeah. I forgot to finish typing it. Sorry.
Chapter 3
5 years later…
The Pharaoh sat impatiently on his throne. Ever since he had acquired the letter from his younger brother, the former prince of Egypt now, now kind of Ireland, he was as anxious as ever.
He had received a scroll from his brother announcing his upcoming arrival. It also announced that King Yugi would be bringing a surprise along with some rather urgent news. After Yugi had let for Ireland five years prior they had lost contact. Apparently the country needed the full attention of the new King and Queen. Only a year and a half ago had contact been reestablished. At any moment his younger brother would arrive.
"Dearest, I think you might want to hear this," Yami's wife, Shukura, said as she interrupted his thoughts.
With his full attention on the messenger before them, he said, "What news do you bring to us?"
The said messenger bowed, if possible, even lower than before then proceeded to stand at full height to make his announcement.
"My Pharaoh, his highness King Yugi of Ireland and his Queen have just arrived and will be in momentarily."
Resisting the urge to jump off his throne and run to meet his brother he said stoicly, "Bring them in when they are prepared."
"Yes, my Pharaoh." After bowing deeply once again, the messenger left.
"Dearest, this is most welcome news. After being gone for five long years Horus' lost lamb returns."
"I must agree," Yami returned.
All of a sudden the same messenger from before bowed deeply and called, "May I announce the arrival of His Highness King Yugi and Her Majesty Queen Rebekka."
When Pharaoh and Queen Shukura looked they saw two figures wearing graying cloaks that brushed the floor as they walked down the long hall of the throne room.
The slightly taller figure pulled his hood back to reveal familiar tri-colored hair. It was unmistakably Yugi. The figure next to him pulled back her hood to reveal Rebekka. When they approached the throne Atem (also known as Yami) could see the small bundle in Rebekka's arms tucked safely under her cloak but didn't dare to comment in front of his court.
Letting out a breath he didn't know he was holding, Atem and Shukura stood ready to greet the royal couple across from them.
"Why don't we move to my chambers and discuss business there."
"Alright, Pharaoh," Yugi replied.
When Yugi's guards moved to follow he held up a hand and ordered them to stay outside the door.
Once safely inside the chambers the four royals' normally tense statures melted into relaxed smiles as they took seats upon the furniture.
"How have you been, Honored Brother?"
"Yugi, we are equals. Please call my by my name."
"You have no idea how much I've missed you, Atem."
"As have I, little brother."
"I'm not so little any more. Which brings me to one of the two reasons we have sought you out for. Rebekka, come here please. Brother,… I would like you to meet… my son."
And that's all she wrote. Well for right now. If you really like this story, review. If you want me to finish Engaged let me know.
