!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!

"Are you hungry?" Zaire asked as she stared at the bundle lying on the bed.

"No." Lavie stated with the covers over her head. It was to fucking early in the mourning. Why was this girl messing with her?

"Maybe you should shower." Zaire offered, scrunching her nose to emphasis the statement.

Lavie removed the covers from her head giving up on sleep, "Are you saying I smell?" she questioned faking hurt.

Zaire smiled, "Well…"

"Never mind." Lavie interrupted standing and stretching as she walked toward the bathing area.

Zaire followed her, placing the clothes she had gathered for her earlier on a hanging rack in the room.

"Yami said if you wish to stay you must work around here." Zaire told her raising her voice so the girl could hear over the rushing water.

There was a long silence before Zaire heard the water turn off and the sound of splashing signaling the girl entering it.

Lavie drew her wet hands through her hair before she responded to Zaire, "I'm not doing shit for the pharaoh; he can kiss my ass."

Zaire cringed at the language. She sighed, "But if you don't you can't stay here." She tried to reason with her.

"Fuck it," was the only reply she received.

Zaire sighed and turned to leave the room giving up on reasoning.

She walked out the door and closed it lightly proceeding down the hall to start on her daily chores.

"Hey!"

Zaire turned to see who was calling out to her. She smiled as she saw Satire running toward her. "Hey." She said smiling.

Satire stepped into walk with Zaire as they strolled down the hall. "What's up? How do you feel?"

Zaire raised an eyebrow, "About what?"

Satire laughed, "About being the birthday girl in four more days."

Zaire smiled, "I feel…"

"Great. That's how she feels. She's absolutely thrilled to spending that delightful day with me." Said a rich voice from behind.

Zaire froze. She knew that voice and hated it dearly.

Satire turned, frowning and growling at the boy that met her sight. "Who said she'd being spending the day with you, Duke?" she said his name venomously.

Duke smirked and walked over to Zaire who had her head bowed. He grabbed her chin in-between her thumb and forefinger raising her head so her eyes could meet his, "Why, I said it of course. I do own her, you know." He stated matter of factly bring her lips to his.

Zaire whimpered. She hated him. Once they separated he smirked again and turned to leave. Before he disappeared around the corner, he stopped and turned to her, "I don't know where you've been going at night lately, but if you aren't in the room tonight, the punishment will be fierce." He stated before he disappeared from sight.

Once he was gone, Zaire wiped her lips quickly. She looked at Satire with sadness in her eyes, "You don't think he'd force me to be with him on my birthday do you?"

Satire smiled sadly at her, "Don't worry about it, Ok?"

Zaire nodded her head and they headed off to do their chores.

"Um, Master Yami? Did you get that? Pharaoh Yami?"

Yami stared blankly at the councilor addressing him. Yami was fed up with this meeting. He kept falling in and out of sleep. He had finally decided to go into his own little world since he was bored out of his mind with this one.

Seto rubbed his temples in frustration. Yami was making this much harder than it should be. If he would just pay attention, the men wouldn't have to keep getting his attention and thus the meeting wouldn't keep being stopped and prolonged.

Seto picked up a rock that had become dislodged from its place in the table and chucked it at Yami hitting him in the face.

Yami, being literally knocked out of his daydream, grabbed his head screaming swears. He turned his red anger filled eyes on Seto, knowing he was the only one brave enough to even dare, "What the fuck was that for?"

Seto smirked. He turned to one of the gentlemen and asked him to continue with the meeting.

The man nodded and continued making it quick for he knew Yami was growing impatient and was gaining a headache, not a nice match.

"I just wanted your consent on when the fair should be held your highness." The man explained.

"Well, what did you have in mind?" Yami said between his teeth, trying his best to be calm.

The man gulped, "We were thinking…nine days from today."

Seto eyes widened, "So soon? But there is much to be done."

"We know, but the day of the red moon is that night. This has just come to our attention." another man jumped in.

Yami relaxed in his chair thinking over the situation, "Were you planning on using that day for the festivities so the night will be even greater with the sacrifice giving?"

The men shook their head, "We believe it will be better to do it all in one night, then to interrupt the peoples living more than needed." One man explained.

Yami nodded. It did make since.

"That sounds fine, but now you must prepare for the fair and find a sacrifice." Seto spoke.

"We have everything under control, Priest." They reassured him.

Seto and Yami looked at each other and shrugged, "Well, as long as I don't have to lift a finger, you can do as you please." Yami finished off the meeting standing and stretching.

"Now if you'd excuse me gentlemen, I would like to rid myself of your presence. Goodbye." He stated with a wave of his hand signaling they should leave.

They all got up and gathered their things leaving for the day.

Yami breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally." He shot a glare a Seto remembering the earlier happening, "Don't think I won't pay you back for that gift you gave me."

Seto pulled out of his seat, "Oh, you don't have to." He smirked, laughing slightly.

Yami's eyes narrowed, "Oh, but I insist." He smirked and turned toward the door as it opened.

Lavie walked into the room and frowned, "Uh, it's you."

"Likewise." Yami said with equal disgust.

Lavie rolled her eyes and went over to sit at the table.

"Where's that slave girl, Zar?" she stated bringing her legs to cross on top of the table while examining her nails (::I look at my nails…alot.::)

"You mean Zaire?" Yami corrected with a hint of frustration.

"Whatever." She replied bored.

"She's busy."

"Well I'm hungry."

"She's not your personal servant."

"Sure does act like it."

Yami did not respond to her comment. He knew Zaire was very kind and probably did do things for this girl and would most likely continue to.

Lavie smirked, she turned her purple orbs onto the pharaoh, "You fix me something then."

Yami raised an eyebrow at the bold request, "Are you ordering me around?"

"Yeah." She stated with a duh, "and you know what, I can, why? Because you won't do anything about it."

Yami folded his arms, "What would make you think that?"

"You mean who."

"Who, then, would make you think that?"

"Zar."

"Zaire."

"Whatever."

"Why?"

Lavie leaned back in her chair, bring the front two legs off the floor, "You like her. It's so obvious. I mean who has ever heard of a Pharaoh becoming friends with a slave. And, because you love her, you'll be nice to me to make her happy or else I'll play the innocent act and tell her and she'd be mad at you and not talk to you and you'll be sad and blah blah blah. That's why." She finished with a smile.

Yami just stared at her.

Lavie brought her feet off the table bringing the chair back into its previous position, "Good no objections, now get me something to eat."

Yami rolled his eyes and walked out the door.

"I'm telling!" Lavie shouted to him as the door closed.
