May: Okay, guys! This is where Atem will get to say his wish...
(comes in)Bakura: Hey! Have you seen the pharaoh?
(nods)May: He's hiding under the covers.
(growls)Atem: I'm not going to be like this if you haven't done this fanfic.
May:(glares)Would you rather have a fanfic with Bakura in it? Or maybe Marik instead?
(groans)Atem: May does not own Yu-Gi-Oh!
Four years later...
Atem and his parents were sitting in the palace gardens. Having rested from the celebration earlier. While the couple were talking, Atem meanwhile was chasing what look like a butterfly. Unknown to the couple, their son had tried to climb a tree with the goal of catching the butterfly.
Arsinoe:(sighs) I just wanted to ask Atem what he would like for his birthday.
Anknankamon: What are you talking about? Atem's is still on...(slaps head in frustration) I forgot! His birthday was just last week! But we moved the-
(interrupts)Arsinoe: celebration today. I was meaning to ask him.
She then stands up from the bench, about to pick her son up when she grabbed only thin air. She frantically looks at her husband.
"Atem's gone!"
Aknankamon stood up, quickly as if he was electrocuted. He looked at his wife then at the surroundings.
"Where could he have gone?" he thought to himself.
"Oh, Aknankamon what are we going to do?" she asked him then shouted at the top of her lungs. "ATEM!"
"He could just be around somewhere." Aknankamon told her.
She turned to her husband, eyes with tears beginning to flow.
"How could you act so calm when you know your son is missing?" she asked, bewildered.
"I was just trying to tell you that it is not good to panic in situations like this." he told her calmly. "And besides I think that Atem is just playing around somewhere-"
He was cut-off when he heard a branch breaking and a child crying. He looked at his wife and she understood. They went to the farthest part of the garden and saw the shadow of their son. He was crying, afraid to fall when the branch instantly broke, Atem falling to the ground.
"Aknankamon!" Arsinoe called.
He instantly ran faster and dived to the ground, cushioning his son's fall. Arsinoe came up to them, panting.
"Are you alright?" she asked her son, apparently Anknankamon answered for them.
"Yep, we are alright."
Arsinoe picked up her son, held him in one arm and helped her husband to stand up.
"Thanks." he said as he brushed off the dirt from his clothes. "We better get back inside."
Arsinoe agreed and followed her husband in. After taking a bath and changing into some clean clothes, Aknankamon carried Atem for awhile.
"Atem." he said as he called the attention of his son who was busy playing ball.
"Oh, you'll tire him eventually." Arsinoe told him as she took their son from him.
"Atem."Arsinoe cooed, "We wanted to ask you something." she added.
Atem looked at his mother with his crimson eyes, attentively. He dropped the ball and put his arms around her neck.
"What are you gonna ask me?" he asked, in perfect grammar and pronunciation.
Arsinoe looked at Aknankamon, unsure on how to say it.
He exhaled a breath, "Your mother was meaning to ask you what you would want for your birthday."
Atem scrunched up his nose, "For my birthday?" he asked, puzzled, "But my birthday was just yesterday!" he exclaimed.
Anknankamon looked at his wife, unsure of what to say next. Arsinoe then took over.
"We were meaning to ask what you would want for your upcoming birthdays." she told.
"But that was to early!" Atem protested, "I want it to be a surprise!"
"It will be a surprise." Arsinoe told him, laughing at seeing her son's expression.
Arsinoe then took Atem from him and put him on her lap.
"Did you think of something?" she asked.
"Ummm..." Atem put his finger on his chin. "I don't know."
"Come on." she urged, "You can think of anything."
"Hmm..." he thought again, then his face lit up, "I know!"
"What?" both of them asked at the same time. "What did you think?"
"How about a sister?" he asked.
Arsinoe looked at her husband, and smiled. Aknankamon sighed, it seems to him that he lose it after all.
"Are you sure, Atem?" he asked his son.
"I'm sure, Father." he told him.
"But that would mean you have to look after her." he told Atem.
"Oh, I wouldn't mind, when I become Pharaoh, it would be piece of cake." Atem told them,proudly.
Arsinoe then looked at her husband.
"See I told you he would want a sister."
"But the risks-" he argued. "You could die!"
"Oh, don't think about it." she laughed, "I'm sure I would be able to survive this just like I did with our son." she hugged Atem, and kissed him on the top of his forehead.
Aknankamon sighed. He then took his son from her, and went to their rooms, without saying a thing. The gods meanwhile had heard everything and was not very happy about it.
