Amon's p.o.v.

I wandered into Egyptian lands after Akil abandoned me. As I was walking by the Nile, I bumped into someone.

"Oomph. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I wasn't looking where I was going." I stammered

"Neither was I. I'm sorry too."

I looked up, surprised, at the person I bumped into. He had tri-colored spikes and…and bright, vibrant, violet eyes!

'It's him!' my mind yelled.

He held out his hand out his hand, I took it and he pulled me up.

"Th-thank you." I stuttered

"You're welcome. I'm Atem." He smiled "wait I remember you! You were that child at the fire that night."

I winced at the mention of the night,

"Oh right, sorry I couldn't help you." he sighed

"It's alright. I-I'm Amon." I said shyly

"Amon. That's the God of Mystery. Pardon my asking but are you a boy or a girl?" he questioned

"I'm a girl. My mother and father wanted a boy though." I confessed

"Well, you are a very pretty girl. And if you grow your hair out longer…" he trailed off running his fingers through my short hair.

"I um uh thanks. And yours, it's so pretty. May I?" I look up at the tri-colored spikes, he smiled and nodded. I reached out to pet it.

"My Prince!"

I jumped back just in time too, a spear landed right where I was standing. Men surrounded Atem. Another spear but this time it was aimed at the man who threw the first one. I recognized the spear as one of my peoples.

"Lillith," the man above Atem said

My mother stood above me. "Aknamkanon," she spat "Mahad," she smiled sweetly

"Lillith," the one who threw the spear at me spoke.

"Mana. Great now that we all know each other GET OUTTA OUR LANDS!" the girl beside Mahad yelled

"Your lands?" Mother growled, "These lands belong to the Thief King Bakura." She spat

"I banished you from Egypt, now you and your child Get Out."

I shrank back as the Pharaoh came closer

"Oh, you haven't met my daughter, Amon? She was hand chosen by Bakura to follow in his footstep and become Queen!" Mother hissed

'Hand chosen. Yeah right I'm your only child so I'm your only choice. Unless you want Akil to rule.' I thought

"Pff that's not a Queen that's a fuzzy little baby." Mana joked

"Hey, I'm 8!" I yelled

"I remember her when we exiled you!" Aknamkanon said

"Amon was the last born before you exiled us to the dessert. Where we have little food and less water." Mother pretended to be sad.

'Pff I'm your only daughter, stop whining.' I scoffed in my mind

"You know the penalty for returning to Egypt," Aknamkanon stated

"Yes, but the child does not." Mother said

'Yes I do, I'm not dumb.' I replied silently

"However if you desire your sacrifice, here" Mother pushed me forwards.

'No Mother what are you doing?!' I screamed in my head, the Pharaoh stared at me.

"Take her and get out. We're finished here." He turned and left.

"Oh no Aknamkanon we have barely begun." Mother laughed before grabbing my hand.

Mahad took Atem's hand and he quickly slipped me a note. I smiled and shoved it in my pocket.

"Goodbye," he whispered

"Bye," I whispered back, I stood there watching Atem leave.

"Amon! Let's go!" Mother yelled

"Coming!" I replied taking one more look before running after her.

We made it back to the cave without Mother killing anyone. My only playmate, Nearta came up to greet us.

"Hey Amon wanna play?" she asked, I smiled and nodded.

"You were supposed to be with her!" I heard Mother yelled at Akil

"One moment," I told Nearta

"Mother it's not his fault I ran off," I interjected

"What were you doing?" Mother got up in my face

"Nothing!" I backed up.

"Who made us outsiders?" she got closer.

"Aknamkanon" I tripped and fell.

"Who banished Bakura?" she got even closer.

"Aknamkanon" I scooted back.

"Who burned our village down?" Mother grabbed my shoulders to prevent me from moving anymore.

"Ak-Aknamkanon" I stammered.

"What have I told you about them?!" Mother growled at me.

"I-I'm sorry Mother. He-he didn't seem so bad, an-and he tried to help us at the fire. I-I thought we could be-"

"Friends?!" Mother cut me off "you thought you'd get to the son and Aknamkanon would welcome you in with open arms? What an idea!" she paused "what an idea!" she exclaimed

'Well that's not what I was going for but okay!' I thought she pulled me into her arms 'what's going on? She doesn't hug me anymore!' I exclaimed in my mind

"You brilliant child. I'm so proud of you, you have the same conniving mind that made that made Bakura so… powerful and alluring." She said petting my head "come you must be exhausted." Mother pulled me to the cave

"Well um, I'll see you later Nearta," I said

"Okay, bye Amon," Nearta said sadly,

Mother yanked my arm and pulled me into the cave.

Third p.o.v.

As Lillith put her daughter to bed, she hummed a little tune.

"Sleep, my little Amon, let your dreams take wing, one day when you're big strong you will be a Queen."

The girl in bed smiled "Goodnight Mother."

Lillith kissed her forehead "Goodnight my little princess. Tomorrow your training intensifies." She walked out still humming

"I've been exiled, persecuted, left alone with no defense; when I think of what that brute did, I get a little tense." She sang walking along the cave

"But I dream a dream so pretty, that I don't feel so depressed. Cause it soothes my inner power and it helps me get some rest." Lillith twirled around the room. "The sound of Aknamkanon's dying gasp."

Akil fell pretending to be dead.

"His son squealing in my grasp." Lillith picked up Nearta. "His little Queen's mournful cry!" she picked up another woman by the neck.

"That's my lullaby!" she dropped the woman and spun around.

"Now the past I've tried forgetting, and my foes I could forgive, trouble is I know it's petty, but I hate to let them live." She threw a knife at a nearby rat.

"So you found yourself somebody, who'd chase Aknamkanon up a tree?" Akil asked

"Oh the battle may be bloody, but that kinda works for me." Lillith pushed him away.

"The melody of angry growls, a counterpoint of painful howls." She stepped on an exiled's foot. "A symphony of death, oh my! That's my lullaby!" she wandered back over to her daughter.

"Bakura's gone but Lillith's still around, to love this little lady." She kissed her Amon's forehead.

"Till she learns to be a killer, with a lust for being bad!" Lillith threw another knife at a poster of the Pharaoh.

"Sleep ya little brat! Uh- I mean precious little thing!" Akil said to Amon but quickly corrected himself when Lillith glared at him.

"One day when you're big and strong!" Nearta sang

"You will be a Queen!" Lillith opened a curtain so that light shone down on Amon. "The pounding of the drums of war; the thrill of Amon's mighty voice." She sang

"The joy of vengeance!" Akil shouted

"Testify!" Nearta yelled

"I can hear the cheering!" Lillith exclaimed

"Amon! What a guy!" Akil said annoyed

"Payback time is nearing, and then our flag will fly, against a blood red sky!" she climbed to the top of the cave.

"That's my lullaby!" everyone joined her.

Amon stirred beneath them.

"Shush you'll wake the princess." Lillith scolded everyone

"Mother?"

Lillith climbed down and hugged her child. "Hush my child just go back to sleep."

Amon smiled and closed her eyes once more.

"You will be Queen one day," Lillith whispered
