Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ The Flower of Egypt ❯ Cousins and Confessions ( Chapter 7 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Author's Notes: This is my first Yu-Gi-Oh fic I have ever written. But I am hoping it is has good has my DBZ ones seem to be based on the reviewers. Also this is a Yugi (Yami)/ Own Character romance. If you have a problem with that I suggest you not read. This starts out when Yami is Pharoh and then goes into the modern times when Yugi is seventeen.
I do not own Yugi or any characters within it. I also do not own any Egyptian god or godess. I own everyone else.

"Simple I just opened the door and came in," said Bakura coming out of the shadows.
"That's not what I meant?!" snapped Tea.
"Fine I picked the lock," said Bakura waving a dismisive hand at her, then he turned to Seto. "By the way you have a really pathetic sercurity system do you know that Kaiba? I mean I just flicked it once with my pinky and the entire thing fell apart."
Seto glared at the white haired boy for several minutes his eyebrow starting to twitch ever so slightly. At that moment Yami and Arora walked into the room and stopped dead in their tracks when they saw Bakura standing there.
"Hello.... Bakura," said Arora softly.
Bakura said nothing instead he glared at Yami angerily. Yami thinking that Bakura was challenging him for Arora glared back at him coldly, shoving Arora behind him. Then to everyone's amazment Bakura spoke slowly and coldly.
"Pharoh what the hell do you think you are doing with MY LITTLE COUSIN!"
"Bakura and Arora are cousins?!" shouted everyone falling out of their seats.
"Yes Bakura is my cousin," said Arora calmly while everyone else scrambled off the floor and took their seats again. "I thought you all knew I mean we were cousins five thousand years ago in Egypt."
Seto leaned back in his chair at the stunned silence that feel across the group that was true he did seem to remeber a time when he had seen them together and acused her of being unfaithful to the pharoh. All that was before the animasty rose up between the two men, before Pernia's death. When he and the pharoh had been friends, before Pernia had been taken from him so suddenly.
Flashback**************************************************** **
High Priest Seto walked through the halls toward the chambers of the pharoh to discuss a coming festival with him. However two figures in the shadows caught his eye so he stopped and stayed silent wanting to observe.
"What are you doing here?!" demanded a female voice that sounded like the mistress of the pharoh. "If he catches you here he is going to kill you. Do you know that?!"
"Look I don't like you being here your coming home," said a male voice that sounded dark.
"I can't leave and you know that!"
"Yes you can the pharoh doesn't have to know!"
"The pharoh would know he is smarter then you think he is."
"Arora I don't want you to be here anymore I don't like what it's doing to you," the voice sounded almost worried.
Seto frowned was the Pharoh's mistress being unfaithful. He would never have thought it since they seemed so in love with eachother on the few times he had seen them together. But what else could it be if she was meeting some man in the shadows if she wasn't being unfaithful to him.
"Bakura our master lost me to his brother and I in turn was given to the Pharoh has a gift, you can not change that," said Arora softly.
'Bakura,' thought Seto. 'Is she cheating on the pharoh with
"That doesn't make it right and you damn well know it Arora!"
"There is nothing I can do Bakura."
The male growled but stopped suddenly, "You fell in love with him didn't you! You fell in love with the pharoh!"
The silence from the woman was all the tomb raider needed, within a moment he left her alone in the shadows. After a moment the young woman stepped out of the shadows a tear falling from one of her eyes. She frooze and paled slightly when she saw the High Priest.
"High Priest Seto!" she said surprised.
"What was that about?" asked Seto. "Are you cheating on the pharoh?!"
Seto grabbed her wrist and began to squeeze it causing her to gasp in pain and sink to her knees before him.
"Let go of me," she said trying to get away.
"Explain yourself and explain how you know the tomb raider!"
"Bakura is my cousin his parents took care of me after my parents died," said Arora yanking her wrist out of his grasp. "He has been protecting me ever since his parents died."
Seto sighed and stared down and found himself staring back in painfully calm eyes. He had never seen such eyes and he realized why the pharoh had grown so attached to her. The pharoh was right a woman really could be a man's undoing. He bowed slightly to her and for the first time ever to a woman swallowed his pride.
"I am sorry my lady please forgive my rudeness."
Arora stood up and looked down at him slightly.
"You are forgiven High Priest you had our pharoh's best interests at heart."
"I will leave you know my lady," said Seto.
"Very well," said Arora.
Seto stood up and walked away leaving the mistress of the pharoh behind.
End of Flashback************************************************
It was late and Seto had invited everyone to stay with him at the mansion. The fullmoon shone through the window that Arora and Yami shared. She was seating down once more in the window sear and was playing her flute. Yami was not far behind and had an arm wrapped around her waist has she leaned against his chest.
"You used to play like this for me in Egypt," said Yami softly. "Do you remeber?"
"I always remeber our past," said Arora after a moment of removing the flute. "But most of all I remeber the love we shared."
"I never fell in love after you," said Yami hugging her tighter. "Gods I would have done anything to bring you back to me!"
"We both know that wasn't possible beloved," said Arora turning around so she could stare into his eyes. "None of us could have known that our love would have been plotted against. But we're together now and that is all that matters."
"Yes," said Yami softly. "And that is all that matters to me, for has long as I have you I am the richest man alive."
"And I am the richest woman."
The two lovers kissed eachother softly for a moment, before pulling away and laying in eachothers arms waiting for sleep to claim them. However Yami could not sleep for while his beloved slept peaceful content to be in his arms. He had a conversation with his hikari.
'She is nice,' said Yugi.
'Indeed she is,' said Yami smiling softly stroking her face gently.
'Can I meet her?' asked Yugi slowly not knowing if the pharoh would allow him to.
'Yes,' said Yami. 'You can I'm sure she wouldn't mind meeting you either. Infact I am sure she would enjoy meeting you. I'll arrange for you two to meet in the morning.'
'Okay then,' said Yugi cheerfully.
Yami chuckled has he felt his lighter half subside he smiled and seattled himself a little more before joining Arora in the land of sleep.
Elsewhere_________________________________________________
Mandoriki bowed down before the statue the god who had told him to murder the pharoh years ago. He now wondered if the god still wanted him dead, he took a great risk coming before the god. However it was a risk he was willing to take for Arora. She would be his whether she liked it or not she would most definately be his.
"May lord," he began. "Do you want me to kill him still?"
The statue shifted slightly and moved slightly a booming voice echoed throughout the room.
"Kill the pharoh and succeed," said the god. "If you succeed then the woman you so desire will be yours. Fail and I will take your life for it!"
"Very well great god."
Mandoriki bowed and the dark prescence once more left him alone in the room. He straightened up and pulled a dagger from the wall to exaimine it's sharpness. The blade was sharp enough to do the job he would have to do it when the girl wasn't there to get in the way. It would be easier to get to her heart if she didn't know it was him that killed the man she had shared her bed with at one time. Hopefully he could get to her before he once more shared a bed with him the pharoh. The pharoh always got what he wanted be it woman or something else. He always got the first dibs everyone else just got the leftovers.
Unfortunately the one woman that Mandoriki truely wanted to possess the pharoh had no intent on sharing with anyone else. He was obessed with the woman something that was not meant to happen. A woman was meant for pleasure and other needs, not to take a man's world and completely turn it around without even meaning to. Such a thing would not happen for him when he got Arora he would make sure that any spirit she had inside her during her stay with the pharoh was broken. She would be an excellent prize and an excellent gift from the great god.
"Soon Arora I will have you for myself and when I do you'll be mine for all eternity," said Mandoriki. "And the pharoh will not be in my way his death will see to that."
