Tomorrow I Leave For Battle
PREMISE: I decided to put this in Egypt, and give Shadii a physical form. He and Isis are lovers. I know neither how nor why this came about; it simply did. This is their goodbye to one another. Shadii is going off to fight for the Pharaoh. Isis must remain behind to guard the king.
Warnings: General shortness, obscurity (though mostly intentional, given the name of the pairing). I actually suggest listening to this song~ It's AMAZING. ^^
Disclaimer: YGO is not mine. The song 'Tomorrow I Leave For Battle' is not mine. I make no profit from this pathetically short excuse for a fanfiction.
Parings: The pairing for this is OBSCUREshipping ((IsisxShadii)).
The room was lit by the soft glow of candles. Gossamer curtains hung around the bed, casting slight shadow on the two inhabitants. There were soft words, exchanged in the manner of those who know they have but short time together. Regret hung in the air.
Their words became slightly more desperate – a reminder that one was leaving. A promise of return…should the world not come crashing down. A promise of eternal love, should the soul depart the body. Soft words. Pained ones.
Gentle hands caressed her cheeks. She closed her eyes, drawing deep breaths that quivered in her chest. Lips trembled, even as the rest of her body did under the reassuring touches.
"I may survive. And I shall return to you."
Her hands clasped at his, drawing them closer to her body. They were chilled. The cold of death? She had not the heart to Look. Some things were better not to know. His hands were cold. He drew her to him. She lay in his arms, consoling herself in the time they had now.
A gust of wind rippled through the chamber, violently dragging at the bed curtains. It was cold. She started in surprise. She Saw.
"And if I die, just remember I love you. And you'll always be mine."
She pressed close, kissing him.
One last time.
On the morrow…he left for battle.
