Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ I Wonder If He Likes Stars... ❯ On my way, from misery to...lower Egypt? ( Chapter 2 )

** one month later**

"Come son, we burn daylight."

"Coming father!" Yami hurried onto his chariot, it would be faster this way. Yami, needless to say was very excited, apparently his betrothed was a great master at the shadow games. They rode through the day, Yami pushing the group to go on longer and faster. Finally night fell. "Oh Father, can't we please continue?"

"Now, now my boy, we'll be there tomorrow night, rest my boy. Rest." Yami slept uneasily, he had many dreams on what the prince would look like.

*************

"Father! Ra is visible, wake up father!" The old Pharaoh rose

"Yes, yes my dear boy. We'll go now." The team trekked on, Prince Yami galloping far ahead of them, in what seemed like forever they arrived at the palace. They were greeted with warm welcome and escorted into the palace. Before being introduced to the Royal family, Pharaoh of Upper Egypt and his son were bathed and given new, clean clothing. Yami didn't like this much, it was purple, and the way it was designed looked like it was meant for a girl. They were escorted into the great hall, everything it seemed was made of gold.

"Father, this place is so gaudy." The Pharaoh looked down at his son

"I know, but this is how the Pharaoh of the lower region is." An announcer blew a horn and presented the royal family. First one to be announced was the Pharaoh. He was a short pudgy little man; and he had enough jewelry on his stubby arms alone to gold leaf a small house. The man had beady shrunken eyes and an evil toothy smile. Yami kept his thin knees from knocking, if the father looked like that, how would the son look?

"And now presenting the jewel of Lower Egypt, Prince Seth." The boy stepped out from behind his father. Yami couldn't have been more surprised. The boy was tall and slender, he had already developed muscle tone despite him being only about a year older. He had messy auburn hair that contrasted greatly with his alabaster skin. His bangs slightly covering his deep blue eyes. Yami like his eyes the most, they were swirling pools, of pride, arrogance, courage, and compassion. Seth was only a foot taller than Yami, but in the young boy's mind Seth seemed like a giant. Seth's eyes caught Yami's; he gave him a small smirk and a wink. Yami blushed. //he's so beautiful.// the prince thought gazing at Seth. He was brought back to reality with a nudge from his Father.

"My boy, go up to him, bow before the Pharaoh and then before your fiancée." Yami walked up, he knelt before the inglorious Pharaoh, then in font of Seth. Seth picked Yami off the ground. "Father?" He began.

"Yes?" the man's voice was serpent like

"I thought you told me my betrothed was a boy. But this desert flower is obviously a girl." Yami growled. He had the strong urge to punch Seth right on his narrow nose. Then the gaudy Pharaoh laughed, Yami's father laughed, and then everyone but Yami laughed. Yami began to glow with anger and embarrassment.

"Seth! I'll kill you!" Yami pounced on the taller male, but Seth being stronger seized Yami by the waist.

"Frisky little thing aren't you?" Yami squirmed but to no avail. "Desert flower did I call you, more of a desert snake." Seth set him down. "I hear you are good at the Shadow Games my love, wanna duel?" Yami blushed, he kinda liked how Seth called him love, then he remembered his anger

"Sure, anything to get even with you." And so it began. Yami was impressed, Seth was really good. He was able to summon the infamous Blue Eyes White Dragon!

"So my dear, what will you do now?" Seth asked in a smug tone, much to Yami's displeasure. So what if they were only 7 and 8, they both knew how to get under peoples skins better than anyone in all of Africa, except for maybe the tomb robber, but we'll meet him later. Yami laughed

"I'll do this my *love*. I sacrifice the souls of my faithful monsters to summon my mighty mage. The Black Magician!" A stone tablet roes and in flashes of gold light that bathed the court the master mage appeared. The court was in awe, two of the most powerful monsters in the same place!? Those young men were incredible! Of course, they were royalty.

"Please, your mage is strong, but don't think he alone can stand up to my dragon's furry."

"You're right of course, alone my mage can never destroy the might of the Blue Eyes, but I use this spell." Yami chanted a few well chosen words. A book materialized in front of the Black Magician. "I invoke, book of the secret arts, and by learning the spells within my mage is now stronger."

"Feh, so what? It's still not strong enough to take on my Dragon. Blue Eyes White Dragon, attack!" Seth shouted. Yami waved a slim finger at Seth

"Sorry my blue eyes, but I also have a trap, the magical Spellbinding Circle. And now my mage CAN defect the overwhelming attack of your dragon. Duel over. I win." Seth's eyes widened, he had never lost before. Everyone was silent, Seth had lost.

(A/N= Ohayo! Thanks for the reviews! And if you want me to continue I'll need at least 8 more, remember more than 8 will motivate me to write faster. As always I don't own Seto, Yami, or the shadow games. Hey, anyone surprised as to who the prince was?)
