Escape (Continued)

[Atem]

After many corridors and prying eyes were passed by without so much as a glance, the pair had finally had reached the large wooden door that was entrance to the dining room where many meals and conversations had been shared over the years. Looking over his shoulder quickly, Atem gave the candy tressed girl a slight smile before he pushed the door open and stepped inside.

"Alright, now I will announce to the cook that a meal must be prepared for you. I am just a bit curious as to how much he will prepare... he tends to make a little to much." Pharaoh gave a chuckle, shutting the door as he saw that Mai had entered after him.

Turning away from the priestess's form he walked toward the vast table which had stretched almost the full length of the wide and open dining hall. "Hm... well, you can sit here for now." Atem spoke as he was pulling out a chair that was situated near his elaborately decorated seat.

"You take your seat and I shall go inform the cook." Amethyst eyes now shifted to look upon her as he waited a moment to get her situated in the seat before he stepped away from the table and made his way toward the kitchen quickly.

"I will return soon." Atem called back with a smile though it faded soon after and it was replaced by that familiar sterness.

Hm... perhaps he was trying to hide his kindness.

[Mai]

Mai's eyes wandered all over the Dining hall, how it could be so large for so many people to feast at once! Scurrying after the talking Atem as they made there way down the table and she was more then willing to take the chair with a soft 'thanks'.

"To much? I'd hate wasting food if it was to much!" She squeaked, her gaze casted aside, though immediately went onto Atem as he stated he'd return shortly.

"Don't be gone to long!" She whimpered. "This place is so big, it could hide shadow monsters! Eep!"

Childish!

As he left the room, her eyes wandered all over the walls. The colors and texture caught her attention as her face turned down onto the table before her, fingers dancing over the fine work and her opposite hand went stroking the arm of the chair affectionately.

"My lollipop, you make my heart so dandy, your my sugar candy. Ooh, my boy lollipop~" She sang softly to herself.
