"Stay here I'll be right back." As he went to the door he realized something. 'He called me his human and I think of him as my alien, what does that mean?!' He opened the door to see a silver haired man, he realized who it was instantly. The man was in his pjs, a robe and bunny slippers. He stood at least a foot taller than Yami, who was 5" 6' tall.
"Hello Yami boy, have you seen anything odd today or last night?" The man asks.
'Great the crazy man from in the roof came down.' Yami thought looking over the man. "Oh Pegasus, no I have not seen anything odd."
"Well let me know if you do. I want to meet the young prince who crashed last night; I would hate to see him out there all alone bleeding to death." As the man said this his hand went to his cheek and he moved back and forth a look of sorrow on his face. Yami stood blinking at the man trying to grasp his meanings.
"I will…" Yami said giving a fake smile that also looked a bit freaked out. 'Nut case.' He thought closing the door and turning back to the kitchen. That's when it hit him. 'WHAT THE HELL DID HE SAY. PRINCE?! So I found this boy on my door step, he's an alien, has an odd tattoo, seems to be part of an army of some kind and he's a PRINCE! On top of all this HE calls ME HIS…Wait a minute, he doesn't act like a prince he doesn't demand anything or threaten me or talk down to me as if I'm lesser than him. He's even asked to help cook though he's injured.' Yami was now standing in the kitchen again with a very worried alien staring at him.
"Are you-"He was cut off by a very confused Yami who now picked him up bridal style and carried the boy up to his room and set the boy on the bed.
"Hush now I'll bring breakfast
up to you. Just rest now, I'll rebadge your wounds after we eat.
Then I wish for you to sleep more in order to heal fully." With
that said Yami placed a blanket over the boy and went to leave.
The
boy sat up and reached his hand out to Yami's back. He attempted to
say something, but stopped himself and pulled his hand to his chest
looking down at his other hand. His eyes half lidded filled with
worry, fear and hurt. He looked up as the door closed, the boy knew
that Yami must know something about him; he had not got the chance to
explain. Yami's tone had said it all; he was confused, angry,
afraid and a little bit overjoyed. The boy sighed and lie back down
'this is going to be hard to explain later' was his last
thought as sleep claimed his weak body.
"Why didn't he tell me? He acts nothing like all the princes I know of and yet that mark in the center of this stomach clearly said it." Yami thought aloud as he flipped a batch of pancakes. Suddenly a thought crossed his mind. "What if he doesn't know? What if he was abandoned by his blood and raised by someone else." Soon Yami was no longer thinking aloud, but going over all the possible event's that could have happened to the young alien in his head.
Up in Yami's room the boy began to dream of events in his past.
Dream/flash back
"Come on young prince we must get you out." A boy a few years older than the young prince said. Pulling the four year old in to a passage way.
"NO! No. Let me go Maha!" The boy kicked. He knew not to scream or they would be found and killed slowly. The eight year old somehow managed to pull his young companion through five hidden hallways to a hidden room. In the room stood an old man who had taken over after his son had died and was watching over his grandkids till they could take the kingdom, two girls-one the same age as Maha and the other a year older then the prince. The prince ran over to the girl a year older then himself.
"Maia, MAIA!" He sobbed and hugged her tight. She rocked him slowly petting his hair to calm him down.
"Shh, my little brother, it's okay." She whispered. Her actions being the same as his past mother's.
"Come now my prince and princess we must go." Isis said. The five took off down the twisted core doors. If they got caught they were done for, after an eternity of winding halls they got to a safe house.
"We need to go my grandson." The old one said pulling the boy away. "You'll come with me till the prophesy is full filled."
"NO. NO! NOT WITHOUT MAIA!" he reached toward his sister standing with a priestess and his two best friends trying to get to them with all his might.
"Maia must stay here. She will
take over soon enough, you will see her again. She will be safe with
Mehedo and Isis." The last thing prince saw was his friends getting
further and further away as he was dragged to somewhere unknown.
End
dream/flashback.
Yami was out of his thoughts as another knock came to the door he sighed and walked back to the front door this time there were two brown haired boys and a sandy blonde.
"Good. Your home, let's go out drinking now." The sandy blonde demanded.
Yami was taken aback by the sight the sandy blonde had been gone the last two weeks not even calling once, now stood before him demanding they go out. "Malik? When did you get back?"
"He flew in this morning, he got pissed when we told him we didn't do anything for your 21st." Handa said shrugging. Behind him you could almost see the steam coming out of Malik's ears.
"I'd love to but I can't right now…" Yami glanced at the stairs knowing he still had a "friend" to look after.
"WHAT?!? WE All TOOK THE DAY OFF SO YOU COULD PUNK OUT AFTER MAKING A FUSS!" Seto said through clenched teeth his hands balling into fists.
"Well it looks that way. I had something happen last night, so I have to stay." Yami said shutting the door as Malik and Honda plopped down on the couch.
"And what pray tell was that?" Malik asked more than a bit annoyed.
"Well to be honest an alien showed up on my door step badly hurt." He shrugged. It was true an alien had showed up on the door step. He thought through the events of the last few hours.
"Come on Yami he can't be one,
they haven't found life or made contact with any, but you have an
alien in your house. Impossible." Seto chuckled. Yami gave them a
pout, but knew getting them to believe him was worthless. He hung his
head in defeat.
As this was said the boy stepped in to the
doorway at the bottom of the steps unnoticed.
"Last time I checked there were
over 625 aliens on the earth not counting the ones that just come for
supplies seeing as this is one of the biggest trading planets in four
galaxies." They all turned to the boy who was now standing in the
doorway. "That's thousand by the way." He added with a large
grin.
The others just looked at him. Looking at him now he looked
human no green glow to his skin, no green blood, no antenna, no
anything. He looked 100% human.
"Great someone who belongs in a
nut house." Seto commented with a sigh.
Yami now realized the
boy did not look at all like he had last night or this morning for
that matter he could easily pass as a full human.
"So you're up? Why do you look normal?" Yami thought aloud cupping his chin in one hand and cocking his head to the side styling a confused look. The others were also looking over him.
"What? You don't like it?" The boy wined looking like a two year old in the process and ending in a pout. Everyone in the room blushed. "This is a cloaking device. I heard voices so I used it, didn't think you'd want anyone knowing I was an alien." He crossed his arms still pouting.
'Wow for an 18 year old he can totally be cuter than a little kid if he wants.' Yami thought. "No, can you please take it off. I want to show my friends that you are an alien."
"Only if no one tells, I don't want to be in some lab for the rest of my life. I need to tell my people that the one's attacking us are hiding near earth."
"I don't believe this, but I'll keep my trap shut." Seto said folding his arms and plopping into a chair by the couch.
"My lips are zipped. If you are
one, I mean how cool is it to know an alien?" Honda said leaning
forward on the couch his knees almost hitting the side of glass
coffee table. And Malik just nodded in agreement.
The boy glanced
at Yami then they both nodded and the boy pressed a button on the
bracelet on his right arm his body was engulf in light for a moment,
now standing in the same spot was a form that looked almost human
still, but it's skin was a light green and it's ears had a slight
point. Everyone stared. Yami hadn't even seen this form, there were
sparkles of amethyst throughout his skin, it was barely there though.
The sparkles showed bolder on his cheeks and an amethyst and jade
crown hanging just below his hair line. Just above his bangs were two
green antennas. His bright amethyst eyes stood out just as much.
"Magnificent…" Everyone
whispered their eyes wide, their mouths slightly open and a blush
painted on their faces. All of them could swear there was a green
angel standing in front of them; all he was missing was the wings.
"Believe him now?" the boy said sticking his tough out in a
cute manner and winking that made everyone fall into the cuteness
trance deeper and they were starting to drool now. The boy blinked at
them. Why were they looking at him like hungry wolfs? "Uh? Are you
all okay?" he asked, worry taking over.
'Wow he is beautiful I wonder
what planet he's from. I have not seen his true form before; I
should have asked him sooner.' Yami thought. Now he saw the boy
looking at him pleadingly asking him for help before the wolves (aka:
Seto and the others) ate him alive. They were already trying to rip
through the pjs he had on with their eyes. Yami smiled and nodded he
did not want to tell the boy that he was using all his will power not
to pounce and devour him right then and there.
The boy turned on
the cloaking device, but instead of the human form, he now looked as
he had the night before and that morning. The boy ran and hid behind
Yami trying to hide from the gaze of the other three boys. Yami
laughed at the behavior. This boy thought of him as a protector
something he was glad for. He smiled sheepishly and grabbed the boy
pulling him into a protective hug.
"How about we re-bandage your
wounds and then eat okay?" Yami asked smiling down at the boy. The
boy simply nodded as Yami went to get the medical supplies. When he
got back, he took the boy's top off and unwrap the green bloodied
wrappings. The other three watched as the bruised skin was reviled
along with gashes and scrapes.
Yami cleaned the wounds carefully
and bandaged them back up moving not to fast as to reopen any of
them, but not slow enough to let them dry out. Once done Yami gave
the boy some cloths and sent him to change.
"Atem I know
this may sound rude, but what is his name? I want to know so I can
document it." Seto said.
"I don't know. Every time I go to
ask something stops me. And you can't document this he needs help,
not to be poked then sliced open."
"But you should know it Atem, I mean he seems to be attached to you already so you should know it."
"Malik is right you should know it. It only makes sense that you know it." Honda added.
"I haven't had time to, plus he might not be able to translate it for us." Yami said shaking his head.
Outside something snuck up to the edge of the trees.
The sun reflected off a round glass scope. In the trees hid a form no
one could see and in its sites was Yami as the conversation inside
went on. The form's hand started to squeeze the trigger. The boy
wandered back into the room the others had stopped their debate for
the time being as the boy walked past the window a shimmer caught his
eye. He turned to see it coming from the trees and his breath caught
he ran over to the others.
"GET DOWN!" He yelled pushing Yami
down as the first shot was fired. The others hit the ground too. Next
shots were sprayed across the walls of the room to make sure that no
one was alive. Holes littered the walls from the floor to the
ceiling. Broken glass was spared over every inch of the carpet floor.
All the furniture looked like Swiss cheese, the room seemed dark. All
the lights had been shot out and five bodies lay motionless on the
floor all in a duck and cover position.
