Of Pharaohs And Slaves

By: Princess of Darkness

Yami's POV

'Sigh.' I think to myself as I listen to High Priest Seth drown on about how we should raise the taxes on my people. Yes, my people. I am now pharaoh of both upper and lower Egypt, surrounded by my royal court including High priest Seth, my friends, Mai, Jounochi, and *shivers* Anzu, then, there is her. The one gained my up most respect and trust, and also won my heart, Raiku. Ever since we became master and slave 10 years ago, we have been in separable. I remember when I first realized I loved her…

Flashback………

A 10-year old Yami, dressed in royal sleeping-robes, stood against a wall concealed in darkness, listening to the conversation in the throne room. His father was giving directions to the army; we were going to war with Nubia.

"Yami?" the young prince turned to reveal a very tired, 9-year old Raiku, dressed in the traditional sleeping-robes of the personal slaves.

"Raiku, what are you doing up?"

"I'm sorry, I heard the sound of war cries."

"Yeah, me too."

Then the door opened and the soldiers begin to file out. Yami grasped Raiku and brought her close to his chest, then kneeled on the ground, still in darkness.

That's when I realized I cared for her. How my heart tensed when she was that close…

"Yami, I'm scared."

"Shhhhhh."

The silhouettes of a thousand soldiers blocked the moonlight…

End of Flashback

As I sit here think of her, I glance over at Raiku. She isn't the same small, frightened little girl she was when she first came. Her hair is thigh-length and has more silver streaks. Her skin is a little tanner, and her smile is radiant. The traditional female dress of the personal slave (think Isis on Yugioh's dress) fits her curves perfectly. She is so perfect.

Raiku's POV

"Raiku-chan are you listening?" I hear Mai yelling my ear.

"What?"

"You did it again."

"Sorry."

"Shhhhhh!" one of the older slaves said and we became silent. I glanced up to see Yami staring at me. Maybe he's in love with me? No, that's forbidden, a person of the royal court cannot become intimate with a slave. But I can't help but wonder………..

Normal POV

"So, if we raise the taxes, more money for………" Seth's speech was cut short by the door opening.

"Sorry, your majesty." Moptais said kneeling before Yami.

"Quite fine, Moptais. You may rise." Moptais arose. Her once young face was wrinkled with old age.

"May I speak with one of the slaves, please?"

"Go ahead. Continue, Seth." Yami said waving his hand.

Moptais walked toward Raiku and whispered in her ear. Raiku's face filled with shock as she stood, bowed to Yami, then left with Moptais.
