Chapter 7

As Seto and Yami went to leave to work on the connections, Angel started to whimper in her sleep. Seto turned to Angel and signalled to Yami that he has it before walking over to her and strokes her hair back gently slowly calming her down. Seto saw her move slightly before lying down and cuddles up to Angel. Not expecting it, Angel cuddled up to Seto and mumbled how she loved him. Seto looked at Yami before feeling a memory come up.

Seto had come back from a long trip and had walked into his rooms to see Angel fast asleep and smiled softly before hearing her whimper and looked over to see her thrashing about in the bed. Quickly getting changed, Seto moves quickly to Angel and holds her close.

Angel snaps awake and looks up at Seto before cuddling close to him and tries to hold back her tears.

"What's wrong my lotus?" Seto asked as he strokes her hair back gently.

"Nothing my sweet, I'm fine." Angel said, not looking at Seto.

Seto shook his head and continued stroking her hair and holds her closer as she fell asleep.

Coming out of his memory, Seto looked at Angel in shock before holding her closer. 'You aren't family are you my lotus?'

Yami watched this before walking over to Seto. "What is it?"

Seto looked at Yami and mouths the word memory.

Soon Leah began to whimper in her own sleep Yami felt a pull to help her.

When he saw the wet tear marks on the girls face he wiped them off before lying in the bed with her. He stroked her cheek and back as she snuggled close to him.

Yami, too, had a memory.

They were in a large room belonging to the Pharaoh. Leah was sleeping in the bed while Atem worked.

"No please don't!" Leah yelled in her sleep. Atem got up quickly and made his way to the girl.

"Leah wake up, you are having a nightmare." Atem said shaking the girl awake.

"Love?" Leah whispered before falling back to sleep and snuggling close to Atem.

"I will never let anyone hurt you ever again my Queen." Atem said, he stroked her back and cheek before falling to sleep.

Yami came back from his memory and held the girl close to him. He was beginning to understand just who Leah truly was.

Seto watched them before feeling the need to protect the girl in his arms. He looked up at Yami and saw the same looked of love and determination to keep his girl safe. They had a feeling that they wouldn't get any answers from the girls now so they decided to fall asleep with their girls in their arms.

A few hours later, Seto woke up to a shy and blushing Angel in his arms.

"U-Uh Seto?" Angel asked feeling really shy despite her heart fluttering at the feeling of her heart being in the arms of her husband.

"Yes?" Seto said smiling on the inside at the sight of a blushing girl in his arms.

"W-Why are you holding me?" The small brunette asked. Seto stroked her hair gently and told her about how she was having a nightmare. Angel looked down before blushing more.

"I would like to talk to you about my more recent memory." Seto said before looking over at the sleeping couple on the other bed. "Over a cup of coffee?"

Angel smiled softly. "I'm more of a tea person myself, but I don't mind a cup of coffee occasionally." Angel replied.

"Then let's go downstairs and have a cup of coffee together." Seto said as he untangled himself sadly from Angel.

Angel nodded and got up from the bed. Seto held his arm out to Angel. Angel blushed and laced her arm through his and allowed him to lead her to the kitchen.

"You wanted to ask me something?" Angel asked as she watched Seto make a pot of coffee.

Meanwhile, upstairs in the bedroom, Leah was just waking up, she stiffened when she felt arms wrapped around her tight and a body laying behind her.

Leah tried to get up without walking the person next to her but she failed, Yami woke up to the moving girl in his arms.

"Leah calm down, its Yami." Yami said turning Leah around so she could look at him. Leah blushed when she saw it was Yami, this reminded her so much of the times that she shared in bed with her husband in the Palace.

"What happened?" Leah asked confused, she couldn't remember anything.

"You were attacked, we found where you lived because Seto and I had some things we wanted to ask you about, but when we got there you were being snuck up on you and Angel was unconscious. You both used what appeared to be Shadow Magic in large quantities, like with me using that much power will know you out, so we brought you both here. This is Seto's Manor." Yami explained.

Leah blushed when she heard this as he must have carried her and then laid in bed with her. "Where's Angel?" Leah asked, she had looked around the room but did not see her friend.

"She is downstairs with Seto, we both have some questions for you." Yami said, he held out his hand so Leah could grab it before leading her downstairs and into the living room.

The two girls sat on one sofa while the two boys sat on the one opposite them. "Now what is it you would like to ask us?" Leah asked, she knew they were remembering their pasts and had figured most of it out, now it was time for them to learn the whole truth.

"You both know what we want to learn." Seto said, they settled down comfortably, both of them knowing this was going to be a long story.

"Well let's think. You have most of it figured out..." Angel trailed off.

"...So I think we can tell you the rest of it. Let's see, this story starts 5000 years ago in Ancient Egypt." Leah finished, Yami and Seto were happy to finally be learning the truth.

Angel and Leah looked at each other and nodded before looking back at their former husbands. "I'll go first." Angel said as her friend sat back.

"You know Seto that I was a slave, you were the one that took me in when my former master was going to hit me" Angel said. Once she saw that he nodded, she continued. "You then took me to the Palace, where the Pharaoh agreed that it was within everyone's best interest that I stayed with you when you were High Priest, over the months, you began to see something was wrong. During the night, you would see me in your dreams. During one day, I was taken to the Pharaoh, under the terms that I was trying to attack the Pharaoh."

"That was your Dream Walk, right?" Seto asked, thinking about how she continued to ask about Dream Walking to her friend.

Angel nodded before continuing. "I, by mistake, Dream Walked into the Pharaoh's dreams. This of course was by mistake. The reason for this was because I was trying to Dream Walk into Seto's dreams to warn him about what was going to happen. The night before I was taken before the Pharaoh I Dream Walked into someone's dreams and saw what they had hoped would happened."

Angel was fast asleep when she was grabbed by the guards. As she woke up quickly and looked around fearfully as she was dragged to the Pharaoh. Trying to get away, the guards tightened their grips causing the girl to whimper in pain.

Seto looked at Angel in confusion and saw a bed slave follow and kneels before his cousin. "My Pharaoh, I am to believe that this slave was planning an attack on you." The bed slave said.

"And how do you know that she is planning an attack?" Mahad asked. He knew of Seto's feelings for the girl.

"I heard her talking to the other servants about an attack." She said making sure that the Pharaoh had eyes on her.

"Please Pharaoh put me through the test! Judge my heart and soul!" Angel yelled. The Court looked at the Pharaoh as he was in deep thought before nodding. "Alright. Let the judgement begin."

"I was then cleared and they tried the bed slave and caught the one that was going to attack the Pharaoh, two months after that I was released as a slave and was being courted no sooner I was released."

"Well I guess it is my turn." Leah said looking at her friend.

"It's okay Leah." Angel said taking her hand.

"I was a slave also much like Angel however I was treated worse, I was beaten for doing even one thing wrong. I went days sometimes weeks with no food or water and slept in the coldest room in the house. One day I was dressed up in the nicest clothing I had ever worn and I thought they were going to be nice to me, they brought me to the Palace where I learned they had sold me to the Priests." Leah explained.

"They sold you to me when I had a slave?" Seto asked confused.

"No, you had nothing to do with it. To the other priests, I was considered very beautiful for being a slave and I was to be a gift to the Pharaoh, to do with as he wished." As Leah said this, she looked at directly at Yami. "However you were nice and took me in, you treated my wounds, fed me and gave me somewhere nice to live in the Palace." Leah sighed and Angel squeezed her hand.

"It's okay Leah, that won't happen now." Angel assured her, Seto and Yami looked confused.

"Apparently some people thought that I was getting too close to the Pharaoh or that I had put a spell on him because I was treated so well for being a slave. They came into my room one night while I was sleeping and lead me down to the dungeons. The guards and priests beat me until I fell unconscious before waking me and beating me once more. It was like a cycle. They even tried to rape me, however I had been training with the Pharaoh and the good priests on Shadow Magic so they didn't get that far. Angel found me and went to get you, when you saw me you were angered. All of the guards and priests were executed the next day. You freed me but I did not want to leave so I stayed." Leah explained, she was shivering.

Yami got up and walked over to sit by Leah while Angel stood and sat by Seto. As soon as Yami held the weeping girl, she stopped crying so heavily, she loved being in her husband's arms even if he did not know that.

/Yami, there is more they are not telling us./ Yugi said with a said face.

/I know Aibou./ Yami said.

Yami then gripped his head as he remembered something more.

He and Leah were lying in bed fast asleep when he heard whimpering coming from the form cuddled close to him.

"My Queen? What is wrong?" Atem asked confused and worried.

Tears began to leak out of Leah's eyes and Atem panicked further. "No, please don't hurt me!" Leah cried.

That was when Atem realised Leah was having a nightmare. "My love, they can never hurt you again. I promise they will never hurt you." Atem said, he kissed her head and she calmed down.

/Another memory?/ Yugi asked.

/Yes, I don't think we were just friends./ Yami said with a blush.

/Well Ishizu did show you that tablet where you and Seto married girls, one called the Queen, the other called the Dream Walker. That fits Leah and Angel to me./ Yugi said and Yami had to agree.

"What else are you not saying?" Yami asked the two girls who looked at one another and smiled.
