Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bakura actually smiled, something he hadn't done in a long time. But he was happy, Amia was the one thing in this whole world that made him happy. She was his treasure, and nobody was going to take her away from him again. "Do you want to go swimming? Like we used to?" he asked while taking his other hand to run his fingers through her hair.

Amme giggled to herself and blushed a bit. "Yea," she murmured knowing he was right. They walked through the streets unnoticed to all. They reached the game bizarre- a place full of stands dedicated to all types of games. Amme looked around and pointed out the table. "There it is," she said pointing to it and walking toward it. "Ok, so what color do you want to be?" she asked.

Bakura watched as she slipped into the water. He took his sandles off as well as his robe. He left his bottoms on though. He then walked into the water. Once he the water was up to his torso, he went under. He moved up to Amia and popped up in front of her- complete drenched. "Why don't you go under now?" he said moving more toward the center with her.

Amme sat on the opposite side of the table. "Alright then," she said watching him make his first move. She knew he was good at games, great even. She was good herself, nowhere near him but good enough. But she wasn't sure how good she was at chess- she hadn't played since she was a child. They went back and forth for a while, taking their turns. Sometimes blocking and sometimes taking the other player's piece. By this time, she was down more pieces then him. "Wow, you really are good at this," she said as she stared at the board looking for a spot to go. She may be good at some games, but two player games like this were her weaker games- afterall, she kept to herself all these years. She had no one to really play with.

Bakura embraced himself as he went under with her. He kissed her back under the water. Afterwards, he grabbed her waiste and lifted them both above the water. "Aren't you a tricky one," he smirked as he moved her hair out of her face.

Amme looked at where he moved and looked at him. That was a rather strange move. She smiled and did a combo jump- taking all of his remaining pieces. She smiled and looked at him. "Looks like I win this time," she said. She waited for what he would say about it before telling him she new he let her win.

"Well then, if it was what you wanted- then I would not be able to do otherwise now would I?" he said with a smirk complimenting on her strength. Her plan worked, as he was being teased by her. He walked deeper into the oasis with her- so that their shoulders where just above the water while their feet still touched the ground. He grabbed onto her, hugging her close. "But I have wants too that are hard to break free from," he said refering to him wanting to hold her tight.

Amme leaned with her elbows on the table and her head being held up by her hands. She smiled and said, "I may have been more then good at this if somebody didn't purposly move here," she said in a joking yet sarcastic tone. She was letting him know that she knew very well that he threw the game. "Maybe you'll play with me more so you won't have to do that anymore," she said sitting back. She didn't really like him throwing the game- but knew he was just doing it to make her feel good. Though she wished he not do it again. She stood up and walked toward him. Her smile hasn't really disappeared off her face since they've been out. "I would like to play another game," she said looing around, "how about a small round of backgammon and then we can find something to eat afterwards?" She was starting to get hungry again since she ate a bit of her breakfast and it was approaching lunch.

Bakura smirked as she said that to him. He held her close to him as she leaned into him. "Good," he whispered as he neared his lips to her and kissed her deeply on her lips. Her lips were like air to him- he couldn't leave them or he would die. The more he kissed her, the more he wanted to kiss her more.

Amme just smiled kindly and said, "It's fine." She didn't want him to feel bad- she just wanted him to play from the heart. They sat at the Backgammon board, "I'll be red and you can be black. Let's do roll the dice to see who goes first." She handed him one and grabbed the other. She rolled her own. [I haven't played in a while- it's fun but kinda hard. As for rules, I don't remember XD I know that the game originated in Egypt, thus using it X3]

Bakura finally pulled away and looked at her with eyes as gentle as his in childhood. "I'm never going to let anything happen to you," he said promising as so. He would certainly die if anything ever did happen to her. And that's why he would protect her, as she is her greatest treasure.
[[Maybe we can have it where some ex-guards of the palace (those who were banished for some reason or another) try to capture the two of them so to try and get back into the palace (to impress the Pharoah or whatever). However, they try to kidnap Amia but Bakura protects her and they take him away to torture and such. Then she can save him because she's as strong, if not stronger, then him XD Just an idea. It can happen when they leave this place if you want.]]

Amme made her move and the two commensed the game. Just like with chess, they both sat their concentrated. This time, they were equal in game play. But at the end, she had two more pieces to move into the goal (she needed to roll a two and a one) and Atem needed only one piece in (needing to roll a three). It was his turn. "Here," she said handing him the dice.

Bakura chuckled and splashed her back. "Are you hungrey? We can go somewhere to eat if you like?" he asked.

"Uh huh!" Amme said with a innocent smile She hasn't had this much fun in a long time. She rolled the dice and got a 2 and a 1! "Oh wow!" she said as she had won the game. "That was one of the hardest matches I've ever played!" she said happily as she stood up. She had this overwheming feeling of happiness- she was just happy to be with him. She wanted to hug him to show him, but she didn't. "Are you hungry? I kinda am. I think it's lunch time," she said shyly but happily.

Bakura smirked and nuzzled his head slightly against Amia's. He then swam backwards just to watch her as he swam back to sure. Once near shallow water, he turned forward and walked out of the water. He waited for Amia. Once they were out, he walked out of this place with her and to the horse. Luckily, he had towels with him- just for any type of emergency along with other items. He took one and wrapped it around her so she would dry. He did the same for himself. "After we're dry, we can throw on our robes and go into town to eat. They'll never even know it is us," he said finding it amusing that they were so foolish not to recognize him. He's done it so many times but it never gets old.

Bandits from afar watched the two of them exit that oasis. "I can't tell who they are....." the one said to the group. Another looked through the scope to try and make out who they were. He smirked and said, "Men, we finally found him. And not only him, the Dragon as well." These men were on a stone cliff looking down, they were out of sight of both Bakura and Amia.

Amme giggled a bit, finally acting free-spirited like she was always supposed to be. "Alright then," she said in a gentle voice yet much happier then other times, "we'll find a place to eat." She said standing up and extending her hand to Atem to help him and to keep him close. She couldn't help but want to hold him as so. Because to her it was like a bridge to connect each others' soul.
