The sounds of chatter led Bakura to a door. He began to just open it up when he remembered something about politeness. He grit his teeth and knocked. A shush fell over the people inside the room and then the door was opened by the pharaoh-brat.
"Oh, wow." Yugi said, looking up at the ancient-Egyptian version of his friend. "You actually came. I didn't think you would." He gave them all a smile before stepping aside to let them in. His room was quite crowded. There were nine people. His five friends, the three Ishtar siblings, and one special guest who had come along with the Ishtars from Egypt. "Let me introduce you to everyone!"
Bakura was a little overwhelmed by the large amount of people in the small area of one bedroom. People were sitting on the ground, leaning against walls, sitting on chairs... He couldn't see them all at once. But one certain person did catch his attention. Blonde hair, tanned skinned, violet eyes... Bakura would have recognized Mariku anywhere. He completely tensed up, his eyes locked onto the form of the boy, unable to look away. He didn't notice the small changes, the way the eyes were kinder, how his hair didn't spike up as much...

Femi had noticed mariku aswell. Being terriffied of the man she burried her face into her fathers chest and whimpered softly. Ayira forced a small smile of her face. aftera moment she noticed mariku but she was smart enough to relized it wasent really him. She set down kek who innocently looked around at all the people. "hi hi!" the little boy cooed.

Yugi didn't notice their odd reactions towards Malik. "...and Joey, and Tea, and Tristan..." He said, pointing towards each person. "...and this is Malik, Isis, and Rishid Ishtar. They're our friends from Egypt." He said, smiling. "They actually brought someone with them they met. He's-- Hey, guys, where did he go?"
Joey looked around and shrugged. "I dunno. Had to go to the bathroom, maybe? Doesn't matter." He looked towards the new guests, not sure who spoke Japanese. "He doesn't really speak anything we can understand."
"I understand him." Malik said defensively, but didn't want to get into an argument with Joey. He got up to his feet, going over to the other Egyptians. He was trying his best to be friendly towards new people. He couldn't help but notice Bakura's hostile gaze, though. He offered his hand weakly, to anyone. "Nice to meet you."

Femi whimpered and just nuzzled closer to her father. ayira sighed softly and shook malik's hand "It's nice to meet you as well. I'm Ayira, thats kek, femi and bakura" Ayira said introdusing them all in japanese so they would understand. Noticing ayira shake the mans hand kek desided to mimic her. Reaching up on his tippy toes he grabed malik's finger and shook it as hard as he could. both kek and femi barly spoke any japanese and mostly just arbic.

Malik smiled and shook Kek's hand back, politely. "Ah, Bakura. Thought you looked familiar." Malik said, and only got a violent glare in response. "Uh... Right. I'm going to go try and find the other one." He slipped past the others into the hallway, searching for his guest he had brought.
Bakura swore softly under his breath and rubbed Femi's back, trying to get her to be calm. "I take it that kid isn't the one we're used to?" He asked, though he already knew the answer. "Just a reincarnation, I suppose. Too many of the damned people running around..."

"Just relax..." Ayira said watching as he tried to calm femi. She could understand why the child would be afraid. Femi clung tightly to herfather. She refused to let go. She dident understand that it wasent mairku and she was afraid. Kek on the other hand reallly dident mindanybody here. Being his normaly nosy self he startedto look around the room.

Bakura bent down, setting Femi on the ground. "He's not the same person, child." He said, almost softly. "He won't hurt you now. Not with me around. You understand this, right?"
The bedroom door opened once more and Malik re-entered. "Found him!" He announced proudly, prodding his guest into the already crowded room. Bakura glanced up in mild annoyance and thought that it was the person who had housed them the first few days, but after a closer look...
It was the priest Seto, of course, who entered the bedroom with Malik. He was dressed in modern clothes, but his features were exactly the same as before, his skin tanned deeply. He had been told that he was being brought here, but hadn't been informed of who he would be meeting. He certainly hadn't expected to see... "Ayira!" He stood in the doorway, stunned at the sight of his lover amongst all of these people.
[Didja know it was him?]

(no) "Seto...SETO!" Ayira screamed and ran to seto hugging him tight. She started sobbing in his arms "It's you...it's really you!" She couldent hold onto him tight enough.
Femi sniffled but nodded. She still dident want to let go of her father.
Seeing his sibbing stressed kek walked over and took his sister by the hand. "Lookie!" he said and pulled her over to look at some simple little thing on yugi's bedside table.

"Oh, god, Ayira..." Seto seemed to hesitate slightly before he hugged Ayira back. All the others in the room seemed utterly baffled, but politely looked away and began to chatter about the price of duel monster cards. Seto managed to pull away and took a hold of Ayira's chin, tilting her face up so he could see her. "Where have you been? Where did you go? You just vanished but there was no blood and I didn't know if you were dead... Why did you leave?"

"I dident want to leave...but this violet haired man forced me.I tried fighting back but he broke my jaw" Ayira said. "He took me to bakura and his family when brought us here" Ayira had been speaking in ancient egyptian so there conversation would be somewhat private "I cant belive it's really you..."

Seto's eyes flashed in anger that someone would dare hurt Ayira, but this brief flare of anger quickly dissolved. He kissed Ayira passionately, but eventually pulled away. "I thought you had died again... I didn't know how I was going to get you back." Seto was never one for tears, but now was a little different. "I was close to losing my mind... again..."

Bakura straightened up, turning his glare to the two lovers. "How adorable." He said sarcastically. "I think you're leaving something out, though, Seto. Just how did you get here?"
"I couldn't even begin to tell you." Seto said with a heavy sigh, pulling just away just a little bit from Ayira. "I can try to explain later. Not around these people." He didn't like being crowded in a small room. Especially since he knew the Mariku-lookalike could, somehow, understand his language. "Is there something you have to be here for? Otherwise it'd be better to just leave."

"Well..yugi invited us here to be social...Bakura is here because the children dont get out much..." Femi was holding onto her brothers hand but once in a while would glance nervously at malik.

"You've gotten bigger." Seto said quietly, slyly wrapping his arms around Ayira's waist. "I'm glad to see that you're healthy. Has everything been going okay? No attacks since the violet-haired guy?" He glanced over at Bakura but quickly looked away.
"I haven't lost my temper, priest, if that's what you're asking." Bakura said with a chuckle. He went over to his children and scooped them up. Femi was clearly uncomfortable being around Malik. He switched briefly to Japanese. "I'm taking them downstairs. This is some kind of toy shop? They'll have things to do there." The others looked uncomfortable. Did this guy know that it was a shop, and he couldn't just open up whatever he wanted? None were brave enough to ask him, though.
