Atem stared for a minute before walking away from the throne room. He and Seto walked down the long corridor painted with hieroglyphics that led to the dead end of the hall which was The Pharoah's office. Atem opened up the door to his office. It was an elaborate room with paintings and scrolls, the walls embellished in gold fit for a King and it extended the size of a football field.

The Pharoah had an elaborate bronze desk with engravings of hieroglyphics, and on the center of his desk was a shiny purple jewel called amethyst in the middle of his desk.

According to old myths, Pharaohs always believed that amethyst jewelry represented luck and could ward away bad spirits. To Atem, the jewel holds sentimental value as the color of the jewel reminded him of his beloved Yugi, who was known for his amethyst-colored eyes that can stare into a person's soul. Yugi to Atem, was beholden to him as one of the beautiful human beings he laid eyes upon, his innocent looks and beautiful eyes can make a man weak in the knees but Yugi never knew how beautiful and seductive he can be around both men and women. His cute innocent charm was a protective barrier from the danger his looks could possess over mere mortals.

Atem would gladly admit he was beholden by his beauty and luminous eyes that can heal Atem during a stressful time. He remembers the many nights he would constantly worry about his Yugi, his will in wanting to keep him safe, and the daily evening conversations they would have together, Yugi's soft voice always found a way to heal his chaotic dark soul when he was a spirit in the puzzle. In his office, he had four couches that were against the wall across from each other but it gave a good view of the Pharoah's desk.

When Atem reached his desk, he turned around with Kaiba 3 ft behind him his head still facing downward and his hand across his chest.

"Sit!" Atem exclaimed,

Seto followed immediately and sat right in front of the chair across from Pharoah's desk. Atem circled Kaiba watching him like a hawk. He stood standing in front of him, with his arms across his chest with a scowl.

"Now! I want to know what were you thinking Seth? "You do not comprehend what you have just done, you made your Pharoah very upset!

"Apologies My Pharoah"

"I did not ask you to speak!" Atem went over to his desk grabbed his amethyst jewel and held it like a Chinese massage ball. "You almost got him killed, Seth" Atem said in a quiet tone that sounded like he was almost going to cry. Atem closed his eyes and rolled the jewel around his hand. "Speak now!"

" I apologize my Pharoah, it was never my intention to hurt the young one, my modern-day incarnation is a ruthless man and his ambitions overpowered what I could abstain from".

"You had nine months in the mortal world to control him Seth!"

Seth bowed his head again "Yes Your Majesty but I briefly lost control over him when he arranged his own tournament, his lust for the games is as vile as tasting bile in my mouth, I had to channel his memory towards it since I had no knowledge of this modern-day version of the death games. His fixation on his majesty and the young one took over his common sense. He knew Aigami wanted to kill your vessel.

"Yugi is not a vessel! If I hear that word again from your mouth I will make sure your vessel will die in this afterlife. I can make it happen. Atem bowed his head and rubbed his temples. "You caught me in a very irregular mood Seth, for it is not every day I watch my own aibou almost die right in front of me courtesy from the irresponsibility and recklessness of your own vessel!".
