^Yugi^
I'm so confused.
Bakura, who I've learned is the real Thief King, apparently cares about me. He told me he was trying to save me from the Pharaoh the day of the festival. He said the Pharaoh killed Mit, but that doesn't make since with what I heard him say. The Pharaoh sounded hurt, guilty even, it just isn't right, but then where is Mit? If the Pharaoh didn't kill him he would have found me by now, it's been two days. Mit's always been able to find me; he's a really good tracker. So, he has to be dead. He can't be caged; I've never known anything stronger than him.
Bakura says he loves me. It's weird, why would the Thief King want me? I'm nothing more than a slave, have been all my life, yet he doesn't treat me like a slave. He talks to me like an equal, he even told me I could leave if I really wanted to, but then he asked that I stay here at least until I know where I wanted to go.
At first I was going to leave right away, but I don't have anywhere to go, and I don't have Mit with me anymore so wherever it is I'll have to walk, which isn't safe.
He's outside doing something-Bakura I mean-he said he needed to do something but I get the feeling he's just seeing if I'll run. I probably should, the more I think about it the more I see that staying with the most wanted person in Egypt isn't the greatest idea, but again I have nowhere to go. If the Pharaoh did kill Mit and only wants me back because I'm him slave, then I don't want to go back.
I'd never be able to look at him knowing he's why Mit is dead.
I've changed, I can feel it. Mit was no pet to me, he was my friend and I loved him more than anything, I would have died for him. I never knew what Mit was, for I knew he could have been a god. If he was then the Pharaoh will probably die soon, the gods don't take kindly to killing one of their family. They say something like that happened in this town, Kul Elna. There's ghost everywhere, but they don't seem to bother Bakura. I've seen a few, they seem like they're in a lot of pain. I would be to if the gods wouldn't let me rest for the rest of eternity. They don't bother me though, probably because Bakura is here.
Bakura is coming back, I hear him coming down the steps. Why does my head hurt when he comes close to me?
Smirking Bakura walks over to me, putting his hand on my cheek, "Are you cold?"
He is the Thief King, thus he never smiles and he's very straight forward, but so was the man I once called the Thief King-the one that ran the caves I grow up in. The two are very different but they both seem to be somewhat the same when it came to me. Still I know better than to give Bakura something against me, I need to stay on his good side so I nod reaching toward him.
Bakura picks me up bridal style carrying me into another room of the old temple and puts me on a bed, pulling out an old blanket and wrapping it around me like a small child.
I close my eyes and try to sleep knowing he won't leave me alone again for some time. I'll talk to him tomorrow, maybe I can learn a little more about the infamous Thief King.
