Malik and Isis

"Welcome back." Yugi greeted Akefia when he heard the man and his horse walking to the oasis, he was washing his Pony near the pond.

Another month had passed after he forced Akefia to not stealing all the times, the name 'Bakura' had spread throughout the Kingdom of Egypt, it's sometimes confused Akefia how his clothes can be so popular, the fabric they are being made of was not that good after all. The first time he sell clothes, the fabric was a stolen one, but after the first time, Yugi demanded that Akefia bought the fabric instead of stealing them, so he bought the cheap one with the money he got by selling clothes.

"I'm back." Akefia smirked as he walked to Yugi, "Don't complain on this one, but I steal something for you again." He showed what he kept in his hand, it's a golden necklace with Amethyst jewel in the middle.

Yugi smiled at Akefia and accepted the necklace, "Alright, I won't complain, I like them." He said as he wear the necklace, "The color was the same with my eyes".

Akefia grinned, "That's why I stole them." He said confidently.

Yugi nodded before looking back at Akefia, "Tomorrow we will go to the Market again, right?" he asked cutely with his big eyes.

Akefia grimaced but nodded, "Yeah, it's the time again." He answered gloomily.

So Akefia took Yugi to the Market the next day to sell clothes again, he really didn't want to, but with Yugi looking at him with his 'Deadly Puppy Dog Eyes' every time he said he want to just steal than selling clothes, he didn't really had a choice in the matter.

In the afternoon, people were crowding Akefia's stall again, but then they all turned to behind them before moving aside. Akefia was confused at first, but then he saw what causing them to acted like that. Right ahead of his stall was a woman with black hair hidden by her hairpiece and a small boy around Yugi's age with sandy blond hair with violet eyes were walking to his stall. From her clothes, the woman was a High Priestess, that's mean that the woman was Isis, the only woman in the Pharaoh's Council.

High Priestess Isis smiled at him, "Hello, are you the one called Bakura?" she asked with a kind tone, "The word of your wonderful work pieces had even reach the Palace, so I came here to see by myself how good the clothes you made".

Akefia lowered his head to hide his smirk, he couldn't help but smirking when he heard what the Priestess said. He wondered what the Pharaoh will reacted when he know that the most popular clothes seller in his Kingdom was actually the Thief King. He looked up and gave the High Priestess a small smile, "I'm honored, High Priestess Isis." He answered slyly, "You are free to look at all my handy works and decided by yourself".

The High Priestess smiled a knowing smile, "Thank you, Bakura." She answered before she and the boy with her start looking at all the clothes.

Malik was awestruck when he saw all the clothes, even though they are made from normal quality fabric, but the design was so good that can only be made by an expert, not to mention that even though the design was complicated, the clothes itself would not making their wearer get hot, no wonder the people like them so much.

Isis was actually thinking about the same thing, but what shocking her the most was the fact that such a wonderful piece was made by the Thief King no less! Yes, she know, she had seen the future of where the Thief King killing the Pharaoh nearly every night that causing the guards to be on high alert every night, but then the vision started to blurred day after day and then she received another vision of where the Thief King talking casually with the Prince wearing a High Priest clothes, it's started from a few months back. It was mostly the reason why she decided to gave the Thief King a visit to see his reaction, but here she was fascinated by what the Thief King had made by himself.

"Earth to High Priestess Isis." A small voice pulling her out of her thought, she looked up to see the Thief King looking at the boy beside him with a raised eyebrow, she looked at the boy and also raising one eyebrow. "You were looking as if you are in deep thought, are you liking Papa's clothes so much?".

If before Isis raising an eyebrow, she was raising both eyebrow now, Papa? This boy who looked so much like the Prince of Egypt was the Thief King's son? She blinked her eyes a few times before smiling at the boy, "Your Papa's handy works was indeed so fascinating, Boy." She answered as casual as she can, "What's your name?".

"My Name is Yugi, High Priestess Isis." The boy answered as he bowed to Isis before grinning widely, "If you like them, why not buying them?" he asked cheekily.

Isis laughed softly, "So young but already learn how to talk like a merchant." She said cheerfully, the boy was so smart in her eyes, "Alright, I will buy some." She nodded.

Isis heard the Thief King took a sharp intake, but when she looked up to the man, the white haired man already smirking at her, "Then feel free to choose which ones you want to buy, High Priestess." The man said to her.

Isis smiling at the man, since she saw the future where they would working together as the part of the Pharaoh's Council, why not building a good relationship from the start? "Sure, Mister Bakura." She said warmly.

Bakura grimaced at the honorific Isis called him, "Just call me Bakura, I'm not used with honorific and preferred not to be called with one." He explained.

Isis chuckled, Who thought that the Thief King dislike to be called with honorific? She asked her self as she nodded, "I see." She commented with a nod before started looking at the rest of the clothes, it would be a waste if she had seen such a wonderful pieces but not buying any.

While Isis exchanging words with Bakura, Malik was staring at Yugi with curious eyes, the boy looked so much like Prince Atem, it's like Yugi was the younger version of the Prince. He bet that if he brought the Prince along, the Prince would like to asking so many things to Yugi to see if they are only alike in appearance only or in the personality too.

"Um. Is there something I can help you with?" Yugi asked when he noticed that the boy was staring at him.

Malik held out his hand to Yugi, "Nice to meet you, I'm Malik." He said in friendly tone with a smile adorning his face.

Yugi grinned at Malik as he took Malik's hand and shaking them, "I'm Yugi, Nice to meet you too." He said cheerfully.

Malik grinning back at Yugi, "I would like to meet you again, Yugi." He said before looking at his Sister, "Sister, we need to get back now before the Pharaoh know that you are going out without a guard, again." He reminded her sister with a cheeky grin.

Isis gasped before quickly handing a few set of clothes that she had been staring to the Thief King, "I will take them, how much?" she asked in a hurry.

Akefia chuckled when he saw how the High Priestess act, You know something new everyday, he thought as he wrapped the clothes Isis chose in a piece of cloth, "They are 5 gold coins in total, High Priestess." He said as he handed the wrapped clothes to the High Priestess, Who would have thought that there would be a High Priestess who like to come out without a single guard?

Isis pulled out 5 gold coins and handed them to Bakura before taking the cloth bag, "Here. Thank you." She said in a hurry before she took Malik's hand and they run to the Palace's direction.

Yugi giggling as he looked at their retreating backs at the same time as he tugging Akefia's robe, "What is it, Yugi?" he heard his Papa asked him.

"I like them." Yugi answered with a grin at Akefia, "They didn't had any bad aura with them".

Akefia snorted, "Well, not that they would often come, seeing how busy the High Priestess is." He answered before focusing back to the people around his stall that start looking again as soon as the High Priestess gone.
