Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ The Passion, The Pain, The Lust Part II ❯ Where Is the Love??? ( Chapter 9 )

Inside the Conference room...

Kimora peeked inside the door and tip toed quietly into the room and stood behind the Pharaoh placing her hands on his shoulders. "Atemu.........."

"Yes?" Kimora came around and stood on the right of him. "Are you mad at me?"

"No. Is there some reason why I should be mad at you?"

"No, but I am about to give you one."

"What is it?"

"I guess you already know that I came back yesterday. I wanted to surprise you but I wasn't expecting all of this to happen."

"All of what?"

"I got a chance to say goodbye to Priest Mahado. But it was more than just a goodbye. I...............I...................I kissed him. But it wasn't just a regular peck on the lips, it was a more....................passionate kiss. I'm sorry.........he......he never got the chance to experience love before and I just thought that a harmless little kiss wouldn't hurt. I know you probably think I'm a little slut but that's okay......................I made him happy and that's all that matters to me."

"Show me how you kissed him."

"Show you how?"

"Kiss me, the same way you kissed him." Kimora stared at him oddly. "Is this a trick?"

"No, just kiss me." Kimora walked over to him and kissed him the same way she did Priest Mahado. She released her lips and stepped back with her head down shamefully.

"That was a damn good kiss and I'm inclined to think that you both enjoyed it. I'm not mad nor am I happy. I just thought you knew better than that considering the fact that I wanted to make you my Queen." The Pharaoh stood up and prepared to leave. Kimora looked up at him with tears in her eyes and then dropped to the floor in front of him. "I told you I was sorry. I paid the price for what I did.......................please forgive me........you don't have to make me your Queen.......................just tell me that you still love me.................I can't tell how sorry I am................"

"You know Kimora I don't know if I love you anymore. I've given you way too much to let this be set aside."

"I was raped...Don't you think I deserve some slack?"

"In all honesty, no."

"Then what the hell is the point of me staying here. I could've stayed with Christ and Ironheart.........................."

"Your ten years of servitude is not over. Or have you forgotten? How do I know you weren't doing anybody while you were gone?"

"I told you! I was with Christ and Ironheart a good portion of the time and then I was with Teania. I didn't do anybody...................." Kimora stood up and held onto the table, making puddle of tears near the edge of the table. "But I guess its okay for you...............................your the Pharaoh." Kimora mocked him. "That's right I am........and you belong to me!"

"No I don't...."

"What was that?"

"I said......no I don't."

"Really? I got you out of many situations and this is how you repay me."

"He's dead! Why do you care, he's dead now......and I'm sure you're jumping for joy.............." The Pharaoh turned and looked at her looking like he was about to hit her and she dropped onto the floor but he calmed down.

She got up off the floor and he threw her up against the wall catching her off guard. Her back was in even more pain now as she was falling to the ground, he grabbed her by the arms and held her up against the wall. "You know more than anybody else that I love Priest Mahado as a brother and I would never do anything like that with him or any of my other Priests. Watch it Kimora, you may be a servant to me but you are still under my command."

"So what are you going to do? You want to hit me? You want me dead? Go ahead do it. Nothing matters to me anymore. I am just going to become another Shana or Asenia."

"No, why bother doing all those things. That would be too easy for you." he dropped her onto the floor and walked away. Taos and Tagnus came in as soon as he left and ran to their mothers side. "Mommy...........are you okay?" Taos leaned on her shoulder.

"Your hurt mommy............" Tagnus tried helping her up.

"I'm fine........I'll be okay." Hasina and Sarai found Kimora on the floor and helped her up. "What happened Kimora? Did you tell him?"

"Yeah, but as you can see it didn't go so well."

"Whelp, serves you right." Kimora looked at her and balled up her fists. "What are you saying? Your the ones that told me to tell him how I felt before he died. What is it, now everyone is going against me?"

"But you knew the Pharaoh was going to be angry? You should have just kept it to yourself." Sarai added. "Kimora, we wanted you to tell Priest Mahado how you felt but we didn't want you to tell the Pharaoh because we knew something like this would happen." Hasina put her arm on Kimora's shoulder and Kimora grabbed her arm and twisted it back. "Don't you fucking touch me.........I can't believe you two, I should have never told you or anyone else for that matter about how I felt. I figured sooner or later you would betray me. After all you are both Maya's former cronies. I shouldn't have trusted you in the first place. But now I know what I have to do........"

Kimora grabbed the large silver platter off the table and swung at Sarai and Hasina knocking them both unconscious, grabbing her daughters and preparing to escape the Palace.

Inside Kimora's room...

Kimora shoved all her things in three big bags and she carried two while her daughters helped each other carry one. "Come on girls.......you'll have to stay with Ashila until I get things cleared up." They snuck out the Palace and Kimora crept through the dark streets and to Ashila's house. She knocked on the door and Ashila came to answer it.

Inside the Ashila's house....

"Kimora, what's going on? What's all this?"

"I don't have time to explain now Ashila but I need a big favor?"

"What is it?"

"Can you watch Taos and Tagnus for me until I come back, I promise I won't be too long."

"Okay Kimora but I want you to tell me what's going on as soon as you return."

"I promise I will Ashila. Thank you so much and I appreciate this."

"But mommy, we want to be with you." Taos cried.

"I know but I have some very important things to take care of and I need you girls to be good to Ashila until I get back."

"Okay mommy.........we love you." Tagnus and Taos hugged their mother and Kimora left leaving her children and her things inside Ashila's house.

Inside the Village...

Kimora stood in the middle of the village and began calling out for Bakura. "Bakura, I know you can hear me. I........I need your help" Bakura appeared and walked over to Kimora. "I don't have anyone else to turn to but you........whatever you are planning I want to be apart of it to."

"Really now. Things aren't going good with the Pharaoh. Now you see why I want to kill him. It will make our lives much better and then you can forget all about the horrible things he has done to you."

"I guess................" Bakura pulled out the Millennium eye, he just took from Priest Akunadin and showed Kimora. She gasped at the blood that was dripping from it and almost puked when Bakura licked the eye. "Hmm, blood.....always satisfying."

"What do you want me to do?" He got in front of her and tied her hands together in the front. "You will be my guinea pig for the Pharaoh. We will go to his Palace and seek him out. Leave the rest to me........." Kimora heard Priest Seto's voice in the distance shouting for help. He knew Bakura had already attacked Priest Akunadin in the Veju Shrine.

"Oh and let's not forget my about my other guinea pig." Nenya appeared but Kimora, noticed a certain resemblance in her. "My name is Nenya, I was one of the five girls picked to be the Pharaoh's servant, I refused to do it so I ran away from the Palace. I know what your going through and I totally understand. Hopefully we can work together and trust each other so that we get what we want."

"Thanks. I'm glad someone cares about me. Now I don't even know who I can truly trust anymore. I've been stabbed in the back so many times, I'm surprised I haven't committed suicide or anything like that."

"That just proves that you are a good person and you deserve to be treated like one. Not used and abused like you have been these pasts long months. If the Pharaoh is angry about one little kiss than he is going to miss out on a lot in his life. So come on let's do this!"

"But before we leave I must perform the Ritual of Darkness on you two to make sure that my plan goes well without an interruptions."

"What do you want us to do?" Kimora looked at Bakura, unsure about this Ritual.

"Follow me...." Bakura walked ahead of them and they followed behind as they entered Kimora's old home.

Inside Kimora's old home...

"What are we doing here?" Kimora walked around but everything seemed normal and empty just as she left it. Bakura was chanting something in Egyptian and then a door opens up on the floor and a flight of stairs appears with a row of torches on the walls, waiting for them to enter. "Come........" Bakura said as he grabbed one of the torches off the wall and led them downstairs.

Inside the Underground Passage...

This place was beginning to remind Kimora of her adventure with Christ, going under ground, meeting the Keeper of Dark Secrets, learning about her destiny...........It all seemed like a rerun to her but knowing Bakura......there would be some little twist in this Ritual. Bakura stopped in front of a large metal door with chains all over it but he broke those chains an opened the door leading them into a pitch-black room. "Wait here." He whispered.

Inside the dark room...

Bakura entered the room and used the torch to light the candles that were surrounding two stone tables. There were carvings all over the walls and a black book sitting on a pulpit. "You may enter now." The girls entered and held their mouths open in shock. "What is this place?" Kimora looked around. "The Sanctuary of Darkness................" Bakura said as he begins to laugh.
