A Priest…A Boy…A Pharaoh
By Death Angel

Chapter 1

Seto walked through the village a couple weeks later. The kingdom was still slowly being put back together. As Seto walked he spied a man selling some slaves. Seto really didn't like the idea of keeping people as slaves, but he then spied a young slave boy and he was surprised. He looks like a young version of Yami. He thought. He saw one of the guards was about to buy the boy, but Seto ran up and handed the man more money. "I'll take him," he said. The man smiled and handed the boy to him. The boy looked fearfully up at him. Seto smiled. "It's okay," he said softly as he held the boy gently in his strong arms and started to walk back to the palace "I'm not going to hurt you." The boy looked into Seto's blue eyes with his violet. He was scared and yet excited at the same time. The man told him and the other slaves that one of them might be chosen by the Pharaoh as his personal slave. As the boy looked at Seto, he was beginning to wonder if HE was the Pharaoh. Seto was dressed in royal-like garb. "What's your name little one?" he asked the boy.

"Y-Yugi…" the boy stuttered.

Seto smile a bit. "Yugi huh?" Seto said "Well then Yugi, I'm Seto and…"

"You're my master, I know."

Seto laughed a little and smiled down at the boy called Yugi. "Not really." He said. He saw the confused look in Yugi's eyes. "Yes I did pay for you, but I don't believe in keeping slaves. I bought you mainly because you look like a good friend of mine, and I need someone to keep me company. You see my good friend is, how can I say it, "unavailable" to spend time with me and I do get lonely." Soon they entered the palace and into Seto's room. Seto set Yugi down on his feet. "I'm allowing you to have free run of the palace as long as you come back here before night fall. But first before I do that I'm going to show you around so you won't ever get lost, okay?" Yugi nodded, and Seto smiled. He started to head out the door with Yugi following close behind him.

Later that day, Seto soon gave Yugi free run of the palace, but he handed the little boy a scroll. "Remember the room we passed with the big beautiful doors?" Seto asked, Yugi nodded "I need you to take it there, then you may have free run of the palace." Yugi smiled as he walked out of the door and down the hall.

Seto is a nice Pharaoh. Yugi thought as he looked at the small scroll Seto gave him I wonder what it says? To bad I can't read to well. Yugi then came to the big beautiful doors. He had asked Seto what was behind them, and he just smiled and said, "You'll see." Yugi's body tingled with excitement. Maybe this is what he meant? Yugi thought as he slowly opened the doors and peered inside. Yugi gasped in surprise to see the room was a beautiful bedroom, a little bit more beautiful then Seto's. What made Yugi more surprised was what he saw lying on the big bed nearby. It was a young man, and to Yugi's surprise the young man looked almost like him! The man was covered in bandages here and there. Most of them have crimson splotches on them, blood, Yugi figured out. The man's eyes were closed, and his chest rose and fell slowly. Yugi stepped up slowly toward the man in the bed. So this is the friend Seto told me I look like. Yugi thought. Suddenly, to Yugi's surprise, the young man's eyes slowly and weakly started to open. Yugi was amazed that the young man's eyes were a reddish crimson color like the splotches of blood on the bandages.

Soon the young man slowly turned his head to look at him. A weak smile came across the man's face. "Hello there little one." the young man weakly spoke with a deep sounding voice. Yugi didn't know what to do. He looked at the scroll he held in his hands. The young man noticed it too and weakly asked, "Is that for me?"

It must be. Yugi thought maybe he could read what a Pharaoh like Seto wrote. Yugi walked up and place the scroll in the man's waiting hand.

The young man smiled again at him. "Thank you, little one." The young man opened it and started to read it. Yugi was disappointed that the man didn't read it out loud. After reading it, the man sighed and placed the scroll on the table nearby. Yugi then noticed there was a golden pyramid sitting on the table as well. The young man looked weakly at Yugi again with another smile. "So," he started "Your name is Yugi, huh?" Yugi didn't know what to say, he was kind of shy at the moment, and just nodded. The man smiled a small smile. "Shy aren't you."

Yugi once again didn't know what to say when Seto walked into the room. Yugi looked up and saw Seto was smiling at the young man. "I was wondering when you would awake, Yami." Seto said.

So that is what his name is. Yugi thought as he looked back at the young man.

The man, Yami, smiled weakly. "Nice to see you too, Seto." He said as Seto came over and gave him a gentle hug. Yugi blinked kind of confused.

Seto whispered in Yami's ear, "I was afraid I would lose you forever."

Yami smiled weakly, and noticed Yugi looking at them. "Not in front of the boy, Seto." Yami whispered back.

Seto stood up with a smile. "You always try to ruin my fun, Yami." Seto said with a wink "Or should I call you, your highness now?"

Yugi's eyes widened in surprise. "YOU'RE the Pharaoh?!!!!" Yugi almost shouted in surprise.

Yami and Seto chuckled at little. "Now I am." Yami replied "What did you think; Seto, my best friend and High Priest, was the Pharaoh?" Yugi just blushed in embarrassment. Yami smiled weakly and gently patted Yugi on the top of his head.
