===Atemu pov===
"Atemu wake up please wake up" a concern voice cried
I slowly opened my eyes to see princess Serenity standing by my bed side, tears had filled her eyes and she looked breathless. I sat up and looked at her
"What's the matter Serenity" I asked
"It's Yugi, he is in trouble" she said
"What, where is he" I asked
"In the dungeons, please hurry" she said
I jumped out of bed lucky for me I wore a pair of white trunks to bed. I ran over to the dungeon, I nearly tripped on the last steps of the stairs. I heard someone yell in pain it was no doubt that it was Yugi yell in pain. I broke opened the door as the guard whipped Yugi's back, I glared at the guard how dare he hurt Yugi like this. I marched up to him, I grabbed the whip out of his hand. He turned around when he did I punched him in the face knocking him to the ground. I glared at him with fiery anger.
"Just what in Ra's name do you think you were doing to this poor boy" I hissed
"Forgive me pharaoh but, I was order to give the boy a hundred lashes" he said
"And just who gave you that order" I asked
"Pharaoh Akil" he said
"What" I said
"I was told the boy tried to seduce the princess just earlier" he said
"Release him" I said
He got up and quickly released Yugi from the chains. I carefully held him his blood was staining my body, tears had stained his face, he breathing was labor. I cursed under my breath and ran over to Shada room. I knocked on his door a few minutes later he opened the door, his eyes widen in shock when he saw Yugi.
"What happen" he asked
"Please can you heal him" I begged
"Of course, lay him on his stomach" he said
I carefully placed Yugi on the bed, I helped him move his head to the side so it would be comfortable. Shada gather some ointments then he placed them on the night stand then proceeds to clean Yugi's back with a white towel, Yugi let out a hiss and slowly opened his eyes.
"Atemu" he said hoarsely
"Shhh don't speak Yugi" I said
"Atemu" he cried
Tears started to fall out of his eyes, I knelt down and held his hand.
"Shhh it's alright Yugi I'm right here" I said
I quickly looked at Yugi's back, it was worse then I had imaged. Whip lashes had marked Yugi flawless pale skin. I counted each one there were at least seventy seven in total. My eyes narrow, Akil would pay for harming MY Yugi. I looked back to the smaller boy eyes, tears were slowly felling from his face as he slowly fell asleep. I wiped away the tears, Shada started chanting something then he placed his hands on Yugi back. Once he finished the chant his hands began to glow a bright gold color.
"Is he going to be alright" I asked Shada
"My healings aren't like Isis but, he will be fully healed in the morning" he said
"That's good, I have some business to take care of" I said
Shada nodded his head and continued to heal Yugi. I left Shada room and went back to the room I was staying in, I saw Serenity on the bed she looked at me and jumped up.
"Is Yugi alright" she asked
"Yes, he will be fine. Serenity did Yugi...try to seduce you" I asked
"No, we were on our way back to...my room and he tried and knocked me over. Father mistaken it when he found us" she explained
"Ok, then please come with me to see your father" I asked
"Alright but, clean yourself you are covered with blood" she said
I quickly cleaned and changed myself into some clothes. Me and Serenity went to Akil's room, she gently knocked on the door.
"What is it" Akil yelled
"It's me father Serenity" she said
"Come in" he said
I opened the door for Serenity and she walked in then I did. Akil got out of bed and walked over to Serenity.
===Yugi pov===
I slowly opened my eyes to discover that I was lying on my stomach. I sat up and looked around, I was in a bedroom but not the one I was staying in earlier. Then everything hit me. I remember talking to Serenity, then I tripped, and I was...
I reached out to touch my back, there was no scars, no blood nothing just smooth skin. Someone opened the door and I looked at them, it was a bald man with blue eye, on his forehead were black tattoos, the man wore gold round earrings, gold arm bracelets, a white tank top, white pants, and a white cape was wrapped around his shoulder. I recognized the man as one of Atemu six millennium priest, Shada.
"Good morning Yugi how are you feeling" he asked
"My back feels a little sore but I am fine" I said
"That is good to hear, the pharaoh has been quiet worried about you" he said
"Atemu, is he alright" I asked
"Yes kind of, he canceled the marriage between him and Serenity" he said
"What" I said
"I will explain it, since the pharaoh has given you a personal item of his it means he recognize you as a very important person to him." he said
"Like a good friend or something" I asked
"Sort of, and since Akil had you punished on something that was mistaken it showed disrespect to Atemu. So Atemu had the right to cancel the marriage" he said
/well at least that's good, maybe now Serenity can get together with Mai/ I thought
"Is something on your mind Yugi" Shada asked
"Oh no I'm fine, um thank you for healing me" I said
"You are welcome, but you should get ready" he said
"For what" I asked
"We will be leaving the palace and be going home" he said
