A/N: Another update! To be honest I'm only updating really fast to get the story going, updates will probably be a little slower from now on. Enjoy the next installment!
The prince stared jaw dropped at the throne room. It was decorated with colorful strings of flowers and red and gold ribbons made from fruit dyed linen. There were servants running here and there, putting up decorations or dusting the drapes.
"Do you like it your royal highness?" one of the servants asked.
"YES! It's beautiful! Thank you!"
"Oh no don't thank me your radiance it was no trouble at all, we had a lot of help from Seto sayyid." The servant said walking away.
"HELLO PRINCY BOY!" Mana said running towards the prince causing the servants to accidently bumping into each other.
"YOU WANT TO GO THE GRADEN THEIR HAVING -?"
"Mana, you almost killed everyone!" the prince laughed.
"Oops I didn't notice," Mana said rubbing the back of her head in embarrassment.
"What are you two up to now?" Seto asked walking into the room covered in mud.
"What happened Akhti?" the prince asked as Mana tried to stifle her giggles. Seto shot her a quick glare and returned his attention to the prince.
"Shadah and Karim thought it would be a good idea to have a mud fight in the garden, I decided it was only right to stop them-"
"But man, were you WRONG!" Mana said now bursting into laughter.
"Shouldn't you be practicing your charms Mana? I'd hate to tell Mahaad that you've been slacking off," Seto said coolly.
"Okay, okay, I'm going now but, PLEASE DON'T TELL MAHAAD!" Mana yelled running out of the throne room.
Seto rolled his eyes and followed the prince out of the throne room.
"Come on Seto Akhti, we're going to be late!" the Prince said running down the stairs.
"Slow down you're going to trip and fall!" Seto said chasing after the prince.
As they entered the throne room music filled their ears and the smell of food filled their noses. There were dancers, jesters, and lords and ladies all here to celebrate the king's birthday. Seto took his spot in behind Mahaad and picked up a candle. The torches were put out and the pharaoh entered the room. His guardians surrounded him each of them held a lit candle which sat in a golden holder. As a drum began a beat the king and his priests walked in unison, in time with the beat of the drum. When they reached the throne the Pharaoh took his spot upon it and one by one his guardians made their way to a torch. With a nod of his head the guardians lit the torches and thus the celebration began.
After the celebration the throne room stood deserted except for the Pharaoh, his guardians and his son. Oh and Mana too. The Pharaoh sat in his throne a tried smile upon his face.
"Happy Birthday Pharaoh," they all said together.
"Thank you dear family, for the celebrations and for your support, May we always stay as one," the Pharaoh said.
"Baba we are glad you enjoyed the celebrations!" The prince said happily.
"Yes my son, but it is late now we should all retreat to our chambers."
One by one everyone left the throne room; Seto picked up a golden tray with a cup on it and followed the prince to his room.
As the prince got in bed Seto handed him the cup, "Drink your milk, it will help you sleep faster." The prince drained the cup and handed back to Seto. After the Prince got in bed Seto pulled the covers and tucked the young prince.
"Good night Akhti," the prince said sleepily.
"Good night," Seto said softly as he exited to room.
Today was a special day and I'm glad everything went perfectly.
And with that the Prince fell fast asleep.
Seto exited the prince's room quietly, and handed the tray to a servant who took it down to the kitchen. As he headed towards his own chamber he didn't notice Aknadin watching him from the shadows of the hallway.
Enjoy your time here while you can Seto, Aknadin said darkly to himself, because mark my words you won't be here for long.
