Man of the sea

The Thombkeeper and the market man

Malik's POV

"WHAT IS GOING ON!!" I yell when Yugi and Ryou both just... 'poof gone' "they really need to learn me that" I mutter. "Malik-pretty?" Marik says walking towards the tank and looking at me strangely "What's wrong" I say confused as I look around. Joey is backing away slowly and so is Seto. The only one coming closer is Marik. Around me we're little flames. How the bloody hell are there even flames!! I'm in fucking water!!! "M-Marik... what's happening?!" I say looking Marik in his beautiful eyes. "You don't remember Malik-pretty?? That's sad.. I'm starting to remember the first time we met." Marik says walking slowly. "Malik, we met before! You, my sweet market man, and I, The tombkeeper." Marik says while he is reaching out to me. "I-I remember..." I say while the flames grow bigger and bigger, until there is only one big light left.

Marik's POV

When the light was gone, all I could see was a market. "I remember this place" I look around and see the one I was looking for. My Malik-pretty... "Marik!!!" I see Malik running away from his market stand, waving enthusiastically. "I remember Marik!!" He says, hugging me tightly. I return the hug and place my head on his. "I'm so sorry I forgot you my princess." I say. A single tear drips down my face. Malik looks up and takes a step back, he takes my hands in his and kisses them. "Marik... please don't.. you didn't choose to forget me.. I hope." He says smiling. My Malik-pretty, always knows what to say to make me happy. "You're Right Malik-pretty!!" I say in my normal enthusiastic voice. When I turn around I see a glimpse off something, rather someone. "You saw the to, didn't you?" Malik says while he takes a stand next to me. "Two albinos in the beginning of Egypt? Yep, I think that was the Thief and his bunny."I say, taking Malik's hand. "Ryou the bunny." Malik says chuckling. "Come let's follow them!!" He says with a smile on his face, while pulling me towards the place we saw our albino friends running.

Le time skip

We stopped running when we arrived at the palace. As a Tombkeeper I just walked in trough the main door. I took Malik's hand, and walked like I own the place. I know out of experience that if you look tough, the won't think your suspicious and won't attack you. Or in my case, the people close to you. "To the left here, there is the throne room, If Bakura and Ryou are in the palace, there going towards Yami and Yugi." Malik says leading the way. "How do you now the way in the palace, Malik-pretty?" I say, a look off pure curiousness in my eyes. "You see, Yugi was Yami's personally slave, so we almost never saw him. We made a deal that on every start of a new moon cycles, we would meet in the palace gardens. We made a lot of tunnels, in and around the palace. So I now my ways around here." He says with a grin on his face. "Not only pretty, but also smart!" I say while we keep walking towards the throne room. "It's was mostly Ryou and Yugi.." Malik says, while getting a light pink tint on his cheeks. "Still you're amazing!" I say hugging him again. "M..Marik.... N-no...air!!" "Owh sorry Malik-pretty! You are just so cuddly!" I say taking his hand again and opening the door towards the throne room. But what I saw there... I just couldn't believe. "ANZU!" I grind my teeth together, trying not to make a sound. "Yugi.... Ryou! Omg Marik we need to help them!!" Malik says while he is trying to run into the room. "No Malik we have to stay here! If we go there we may distract them, we don't now if they have something planned." "The Thombkeeper is right!" I hear a voice behind us say.... "Seto!! What are you doing here?!l" I say while me and Malik turn around. "JOEY!!" Malik says, hugging his friend tightly. "Eyh bud, how you doing!" Joey says in his Brooklyn accent. "How did you guys get here??" I says looking up at Seto. "Long Story..." Seto says.
