Not One Of Us

"We find Akefia guilty of all accusations. Murder of three guards, the Priestess Isis, and Prince Yugi. Also for attempted murder on Queen Kiyra, and myself. And for the kidnapping of Princess Isolt. For your crimes against the kingdom of Kehmet, Thief King Akefia, I banish you from Kehmet forever." Atem said.

Isolt gasped in horror. "Please brother don't!" She shouted.

/Deception/

/Disgrace/

The pharaoh looked down at his sister with a grim expression. "I'm sorry sister, but this is the way it has to be. Guards. Escort the thief king out of Kehmet." Atem said, turning away.

/Evil as plain as the scar on his face/

"Please no...!" Isolt said as she ran towards the guards, attempting to force her love away from them.

/Deception/

/Disgrace/

Akefia looked at the princess with a sad look on his face.

"Isolt... My love..." He started, but he was interrupted by the girl, who's eyes were filled with tears.

"Why did you stop fighting Kefia?" She asked him, still fighting off the guards.

/He asked for trouble the moment he came/

"For you. You know Atem would never have accepted us. Together. I tried my hardest to be the best man for you.. But in the end, he couldn't forgive me and accept us. I'm truly sorry. But now I must leave." Akefia said.

/Deception/

"Wh-what are you saying?" Isolt asked.

/Disgrace/

Akefia sighed. He knew he would have to break her heart in order for her to let him go.

It's what's best...

"I NEVER LOVED YOU ISOLT! I WAS USING YOU." Akefia said.

/Evil as plain as the scar on his face/

Isolt's chocolate brown eyes widened and filled with more tears. "N-no.. No Akefia you can't mean that!"

/Deception/

/Disgrace/

"Oh but I do, my sweet, sweet Isolt." Akefia lied, using his best tomb robber smirk.

/He asked for trouble the moment he came/

Isolt's heart stopped. She turned away from him. "Then leave. I never want to see you again."

/Born in grief, raised in hate, helpless to defy his fate/

Those very words broke the thief king's presumably cold heart into pieces.

He turned and ran.

/Let him run, let him live, but do not forget what we cannot forgive/

Isolt broke down as soon as he left.

/And he is not one of us. He has never been one of us. He is not part of us. Not our kind. Someone once lied to us. Now we're not so blind. For we knew he would do what he's done. And we know that he'll never be one of us. He is not one of us./

Queen Kiyra walked up to the broken princess, who's sobs echoed in the now empty throne room.

/Deception, disgrace/

A small hand was placed on the girl's shoulders.

"He decieved me.." Isolt sobbed.

/Deception, disgrace/

Kiyra sighed.

/Deception/

"I know.. I know..." Kiyra mumbled.

"Why?" Isolt sobbed.

"He's not one of us. He never was, and never will be." Kiyra said simply.
