Author's notes: Hey everyone, chapter 5 coming your way. Here is a little more insight into Hashira, along with some insight into the hikaris. I own absolutely nothing but Hashira. I borrowed some ideas quotes from MMMG's 'How did it come to this?' so please don't hate me.

We enter the dining area, and see Seto reading from a scroll, Marik arguing with Isis, who is his sister, and Mahad, and Bakura trying to read Seto's scroll. "What are you reading, Seto?" I ask. Seto says, "I'm just trying to see what laws, personal servants have to follow." Seto, Bakura, and Marik notice the blush still on my face and the smirk still on Atemu's face. Seto asks, "Is there anything you want to enlighten us with, cousin?" I blush even more and Atemu says, "She had a dream about her soul mate for the first time." Seto raises an eyebrow and asks, "Really?" I nod back and say, "Your cousin woke me up before we even kissed for the first time." Bakura asks, "Mind filling, Marik and me in, guys."

Mahad says, "Since, you never really paid attention in the legends surrounding half shadow creatures, let me enlighten you. When a half shadow creature, like Hashira, is born, another is born at the exact same time, which they become soul mates for life. Hashira's soul mate could have been born anywhere in the world, not just Egypt, unfortunately. When a half shadow creature dreams about their soul mate for the first, and every time, actually, according to legend, their mind comes across a valley covered in grass and an oasis, their minds instinctively head towards the oasis and that is when they meet the one they are destined to fall in love with for the first time. They introduce themselves and share their first kiss even if it is still a dream. Hashira, does any of this sound familiar?" I say, "Yes, except, right before our lips touch for the first time, I am blinded by an immense light, then I open my eyes and see Atemu attempting to wake me up." Mahad looks at Atemu and the young prince says, "Hey, how was I supposed to know?" Mahad sighs and says, "Anyway the dreams are a way to get you used to seeing your soul mate's face for it means that the time for you to meet in person is drawing near, probably within the next year." I then ask, "Isis, can you give me a better estimate than a year, please." Isis nods and says, "Around eight months, Hashira." I smile and say, "Thank you, Isis." as I chew on a date.

Seto says, "I've found the laws about personal servants." "Well, what is there?" Atemu asks. "For starters, they have special shendyt to wear with the colors of their master. It basically is a way to say 'this is so-and-so's servant' without their master having to be present." Seto replies. "Okay," Marik looks up. "But why do they need the special shendyt, aside from saying 'I'm his servant'?" "It's also a warning." Seto says and reads from the scroll. "A personal servant can only be punished by their masters. Even the royal family cannot harm or punish a personal servant without the master's permission. The clothes say 'personal servant', which translates to 'you can't punish me unless you're my master'." "Anything else?" Atemu asks.

"A personal servant has to do whatever his master orders him to." Seto replies. "So if I order mine to put a scorpion in Tea or Vivian's room, he has to do it?" Marik asks. "Unfortunately. And these rules also apply to females as well. Just because it says he doesn't mean that girls don't have to follow these rules as well." Seto says and continues reading. "A personal servant has to do whatever his master orders him to. What he cleans, eats, where he sleeps, when he is to stay by his master's side and when he is to remain out of sight, when they have sex and whom with, whom he is to have contact with, (if he can see anyone), where he is forbidden to go-" "Wait!" Atemu interjects in a loud voice that hurts my ears a little. "Did I hear what I thought I heard?" I say to him, "If you're talking about the sex bit, I heard it too." Mahad says, "Well, a personal servant has to do whatever and I mean whatever their master tells them to." Isis says, "Of course you don't have to."

"What don't they have to do, Isis?" The Pharaoh asks as he walks in with the other bearers of the millennium items. The Pharaoh asks, "What did you do?" Atemu says, "Uhh." The Pharaoh sighs and says, "That bad, huh." I shrug and say, "Other than your son, your nephew, and the two pranksters getting personal servants, than they did nothing wrong." "Son, I never pegged you to get a personal servant after what happened." Atemu asks, "Why does everybody keep bringing that up." I start to sense something bad about to happen and smell drunk guards heading to the healing chambers, so I say, "Hey Atemu, how about you tell your father what they look like why I go check on them." I get up and start heading to the healing chambers.

I finally make it to the healing chambers in time and notice the guards haven't gotten in, yet. I see that the personal servants are sitting on their beds soaking up Ra's light. I say, "Hi there." and they try to hide the jump from me startling them. Yugi says, "Hi." "You guys enjoying the light of Ra." I ask. Joey says, "Well, we haven't felt it for two months so." Ryou says, "We're just waiting for Isis or the Pharaoh to come, why are you here?" "As you should know, I am half horse, half shadow creature or ka as you call it sometimes. So I have some horse like abilities in my human form, and I could sense something bad somewhere in the palace, and could smell the smell of drunk men heading towards the chambers, so I came here to help fend them off." I tell them. Malik says, "We could have dealt with them."

My nose starts reacting to the smell more and I face the door, Malik and Joey jump off their beds, while Ryou and Yugi hide under their beds. Four huge men, two of which are obviously drunk, come through door, and I already know not to trust them. Man number one says, "You are all in big trouble." Joey says, "What did we do." Drunk man number one says, "You snuck out and won pity of high priestess Isis with your injuries." Man number two says, "Yeah and you probably told them it was us who beat you so if we're going down you'll go down with us." I snap and yell, "For your information, they didn't sneak out, Prince Atemu, High Priest Seto, and Lords Bakura and Marik, took them from their cell to High Priestess Isis, so they can work as personal servants, and they never mentioned you. Besides, the Pharaoh and Isis are on their way over. I should know, I was with the Prince at the time." Drunk man number two says, "You're lying, you probably aided them in escaping, and you're probably going to blab, get her."

A few minutes of ass kicking later, Isis, the Pharaoh, Atemu, Seto, Bakura, Marik, and the rest of the bearers of the millenium items, come in and Man number one says, "High Priestess, these guys attacked us." I ram my foot into his back and say, "Shut the hell up, you and your men attacked us and made false accusations, so we naturally defended ourselves." Man number two says, "Leave him alone, slut." I glare at him and say, "I have never slept with anyone so I'm still a virgin." Obviously no one, not even Isis had expected what I said. Bakura says, "Blunt much?" I reply, "Hey it's the truth." Man number one gets up and lunges at me, but is hit by a magic blast, by Mana, Mahad's apprentice, who I had met earlier.

Mana says, "No one attacks my friends. If you touch anyone of them, I will personally redefine the term, 'getting a taste of your own medicine'." Drunk guard number one says, "You don't even know them." "Yes I do, they saved my life, minus Hashira, you guys are probably the ones who took them from their homes." Everyone gasps and Drunk guard number two says, "You're a lying snake in the grass. We never did that." Mana snorts and says, "Then I'm no better than you, you see while you were talking you had no idea that High Priest Karim was using his millennium scales to weigh the truth and as you can see the scales are tipping against your favor." Man number one yells, "Bitch!" and he lunges at Mana. I tackle Mana out of the way and Yugi appears out of nowhere and hits the man with a large stick, that apparently is what Isis uses to get unwanted guests out of the healing chambers. Karim, Shada, Mahad and Aknaudin, escort the four men out of the healing chambers.

I ask, "Hey Mana, how did you know them?" Mana says, "They saved my life." She then proceeds to tell us the story of how they met. Seto looks at Joey and yells, "You were fighting in illegal underground battle arenas!" "Well when you get rocks chucked at you when you try to buy food so your friends can eat, and have people refusing to buy what you make so you can get food, and you end up doing something like that so you can get food so your friends can survive, let me know." Joey seethes. Everyone, but Isis blinks, for no one had expected that. "You sure you can handle him, Seto?" The Pharaoh asks with a smirk. "He appears to be quite a handful." "Yes." Seto replies, before smirking. "I look forward to training the new mutt in the palace." Joey makes no reply, but simply glares. "Well, I see no reason for these for not to be your new servants." The Pharaoh says. "Thank you Father." Atemu says with a small nod. Everyone leaves for the day.
