Those infernal items have lead them here. I got here yesterday, since I had a head start. Well, that and I'm the Thief King, all I have to do is find the nearest hideout and ask where the boy and beast are. Who ever said there's no respect among thieves? Or was it honor?
I've been watching the boy for several hours now. I first saw him talking to a man at the market. Then he wondered around for a little while, before heading to one of the oldest building in this weird little village. He disappeared into the building, it must be a house for a large family, and seemed to be doing some kind of work for an old man that lives there.
About an hour ago, Yugi left the house, a good sized bundle in his arms. He walked through the village and into the market where he traded his bundle for two whole desert fox. Then he headed to the outskirts of town, where the creature, Mit, was hiding in the sand, almost buried really. Yugi said something to him before dropping the two fox.
That's when I heard hooves pounding against the sand. I turned back to the village; a shining glance of gold told me the Pharaoh had arrived.
Now the Pharaoh and his men have gone to the other side of the village to talk to the High Priest, the Healer Isis, and Priest Shada. A perfect time to go see Yugi and Mit, if you ask me.
That stupid High Priest will be talking for a while anyway, and then of course the Pharaoh has to decide what to do next. I hope he yells at the High Priest. What did Ryou call him? Oh yes, Seth. I can't believe I let Ryou talk me into learning they're names.
I'm watching Mit eat his fox that Yugi brought him, but I don't see the boy anywhere. He can't be far, but that's not the problem. I need a way to get that beast and the boy to follow me. If Ryou was here he'd say to make friends with the boy, but I've never been good at that. I am a thief after all, maybe I should just steal them. After all the Pharaoh will soon know the truth and he will want Yugi back. So how do I get Yugi?
^Yugi^
He's here, the Pharaoh is here. He was talking to the man I worked for, but then Seth pulled him away. I'm hiding in a barrel not far from the Pharaoh and his men. I can hear everything they're saying. Jono told Seth the truth and Seth just told the Pharaoh. He's not saying anything though, I hope that's a good thing but I'm not sure.
"Are you sure of this?" I hear the Pharaoh ask.
"I would never lie to you, My Pharaoh." Seth answers.
I hear someone walk closer to where I'm hiding, "What have I done?" I hear whispered almost right next to me, "Oh Yugi, what have I done?"
Suddenly, I hear Mit scream wildly, I've never heard him scream like that! Something is terribly wrong! I spring from my hiding place without thought, everyone around me is holding their heads down, their hands covering their ears tightly.
I run as fast as I can through the village toward the screaming, all the people clutching their ears tightly. I run for what seems like forever before I reach Mit.
I immediately see why he's screaming, there are two huge shackles around his front ankles, and a steal collar around his neck all three connected by a thick chain, making it nearly impossible for him to move.
I start to look around knowing Mit didn't do this to himself, and come face to face with the Thief King. I hear Mit snap his jaws and I know this is the man that shackled and chained him. But why?
"Hello, Yugi."
