Chapter One: Mysterious Kaiba Sister.
Kaiba Corporation, on the top floor Kaiba living quarters Sayuri and Mokuba sat in a large living room. Mokuba was watching TV, while his older sister sat on the couch reading a magazine. Meanwhile, downstairs Seto worked feverishly going over all the scenarios of his and Yugi's duel in his head. Sayuri yawned while checking her watch, five thirty. "Mokuba, go down stairs and tell Seto that he better leave or he'll miss the ride to Duelist Kingdom." Sayuri told her younger brother. Mokuba quickly jumped to his feet and hurried down to his brother's office. "Seto, you've got to leave now if you're going to make the boat for the big tournament at Duelist Kingdom. Seto open the door." Mokuba knocked on the door before entering. "I'm not going Mokuba." Seto said shuffling through his cards. "Not going, why not?" Mokuba asked. "There's no point." Seto said throwing his cards down. "What do you mean no point?" Mokuba asked confused. "Kid, I am in no condition to duel anyone." Seto said closing his eyes frustrated. "What are you talking about? You always say that cards are power and you've got all the strongest cards." Mokuba yelled. "Since I lost my duel with Yugi, I just don't know what I think anymore. Everything is different it feels as if I lost apart of myself that day." Seto voiced his thoughts to his younger brother. "But, Seto you're the best, you're the champ." Mokuba argued. "Not since that day I was defeated by Yugi." Seto said standing up while rummaging through his coat. "Here Mokuba I'm going away for a while, I don't know how long I'll be gone. Keep this it was always your favorite." Seto told him. "Why, why are you leaving?" Mokuba asked not wanting his brother to go. "Because I don't know who I am anymore. Take care, kid." Seto said walking out the door and closing it behind him. "Seto, don't go." Mokuba called after him.
"Good luck, Seto." Sayuri called to him as he walked through the living room. "Take care of Mokuba, Sayuri. I don't know when I'll be back. You might have to take control of the company for a while." Seto informed his sister. "But, Seto even you said it I don't have what it takes to run this business. He didn't train me for it." Sayuri tried to argue. "Sayuri, you're older than me and you have a college degree in business, you'll be fine." Seto gave her a small smile before continuing on his way. Sayuri and Mokuba watched Seto leave shell shocked at his behavior. "Sayuri, why didn't you tell him to stay?" Mokuba asked angrily. "I… Mokuba…" Sayuri sighed unsure of what to say. Sayuri had always been resented by Seto for how she had always babied Seto and Mokuba when they were younger and in turn Mokuba had followed his big brother. "Mokuba, you know even if I did he would have left. Seto is stubborn and if you couldn't get him to stay, I wouldn't have been able to." Sayuri tried consoling Mokuba. "Don't worry everything is going to be fine." Sayuri assured him. After consoling Mokuba, Sayuri headed downstairs into Kaiba corp. to locate Seto's secretary, Kimi. "Kimi, Seto has gone on a small vacation while he's gone I'm taking over." She informed the secretary. "I don't trust the big five, I want to know with whom and when any of their meetings are." Sayuri ordered. "Mr. Pegasus is scheduled to have a meeting tomorrow evening with them." Kimi said quickly. "Pegasus, why would he be meeting with them?" She asked aloud her hands clenching into fists. "Page me the moment he arrives tomorrow." Sayuri growled.
She had never met Pegasus in person, but from what Seto had told her of the duel monster creator she had gotten a bad vibe. There was something strange about the man. When she had first laid eyes on him on the television, she had found him attractive and alluring, but she brushed that off as a passing fancy. Sayuri wasn't into duel monsters or technology, she was into the normal girly stuff and hadn't thought much on anything, but being the house wife of some corporate genius. She had gone to college and had gotten a degree in business to fall back on if need be, but her step father had raised her to believe she was to be a good wife, and to do things around the house. In fact, when he had adopted the three siblings he had fired his maid after having her teach Sayuri how to do all of the house work. He even had Sayuri taking cooking classes while still in high school.
Sayuri returned to the apartments in the upper portion and prepared dinner for her and Mokuba, that night they ate in silence. The next day Sayuri woke early, quickly showered, donning her best business suit and tying her long brown hair back. Applying some make-up and eating a light breakfast she headed down stairs to Seto's office to begin her day in Seto's place. She had called upon Kimi a lot that day asking tons of questions, thankfully the woman knew much about the company. Mokuba had made him-self and Sayuri sandwiches for lunch and had brought them down to her. "Thank you, Mokuba. I don't know how Seto deals with this all." Sayuri sighed and hugged her little brother. "You're doing fine, like Seto said." Mokuba told her and hugged her back. The rest of the day went about the same except at the end of the day when Sayuri was about to head back upstairs, passing by Kimi's desk and not seeing the woman there sent warning bells off in her head. Running in high heels, she ran through the company to the boardroom she knew that the big five always used. She threw open the door in time to see Pegasus standing up and thanking the big five, and also to see a large man holding a squirming Mokuba. "What is going on here?" She growled walking into the room a few steps. "We were discussing a merger." Pegasus shrugged. "All plans for a merger must go through the president of the company, which at this moment is myself and there will be no merger. Tell your goon to release my little brother and get out of my family's company, and you five I want your papers of resignation on my desk tomorrow morning." Sayuri ordered fiercely.
"Oh, Mysterious sister has spunk, but too bad for you that you are not calling the shots here." Pegasus laughed. "You, see I have Mokuba and well Seto, Seto will be mine as well in just a few moments. Now, you can be a good girl and come along nicely or do I have to hurt your little brother." A sharp grin appeared on Pegasus' face, causing Sayuri's blood to run cold. After a few moments of silence, Pegasus spoke again. "Kemo, please give Miss Kaiba here some incentive to cooperate." A scream hadn't even fully passed Mokuba's lips before Sayuri cried out for him to stop. "Stop, please I'll do what you want as long as Mokuba and Seto remain unharmed. I'll do what you want." Sayuri cried hanging her head in defeat. She didn't even last a whole day. "You, see gentlemen even the most ferocious sounding cats are just mere kittens under it all. Soon Industrial Illusions and Kaiba Corp. will be merged and a new legacy will be born." Pegasus chuckled. Crossing the room, Pegasus placed a hand under Sayuri's chin and lifted her face so he could get a good look at it. His amber eye locked onto one of her cerulean eyes and Sayuri felt something swell inside of her. She looked away quickly, "Hmmm, so alike." He said softly before moving his hand to her hair and pulling her hair tie from it, allowing her hair to fall into place around her shoulders. "Come my dear, we don't want to keep Seto waiting now do we." Pegasus smiled. "Release Mokuba first." Sayuri ordered looking back up at him. "You don't seem to understand, how this works, to make you cooperate I need your brothers on hand, not in the safety of your home, but in the safety of an arm's reach of me." Pegasus chuckled darkly. Turning Sayuri around to face the door and giving her a gentle push through. He led her upstairs to the roof, where a helicopter sat waiting for the four of them. Sayuri climbed in as Mokuba was tossed in after her, she held onto Mokuba as Kemo climbed in after Pegasus. It was a little cramped in the small Helicopter especially with Kemo sitting in the back with Sayuri and Mokuba; Pegasus sat up front with the pilot. The helicopter took them straight out to duelist Kingdom. Sayuri tried to hide a gasp as she took in the beauty of the island and Pegasus' castle. Upon landing Mokuba was snatched from her grasp and carried off somewhere she had moved to go after them, but Pegasus held her back.
"Oh, no my dear Yuri, your brother shall not enjoy the same accommodations as you." Pegasus smiled sending a shiver down her spine. He dragged her down numerous hallways, until he reached a door and opened it for her. "I had taken liberty into packing some bags for your stay, if I were you I would unpack and prepare for dinner." Pegasus said before leaving her in the room and locking the door behind him. Sayuri stood dumbfounded for a few seconds as what he had just told her sunk in. Sayuri rushed to the door beating upon it trying to get out before trying the two other doors in the room one led to a pristine white marble bathroom as the other was locked as well. Her last option was the French glass door that just upon looking out it she could see the balcony. Opening the door she stepped out onto the balcony and looked out over the sea. Looking down below her, she found the face of a ragged cliff. She sighed realizing that there would be no escape from here. "It's a lovely view is it not?" came Pegasus' tenor voice in her ear. Her heart stopped beating as his arms came down on either side of her trapping her between him and the railing. "Giving me the cold shoulder isn't going to help Mokuba or Seto at all. Remember you promised to do whatever I wanted as long as your brothers remained unharmed." Pegasus breathed. "You never said what you wanted." Sayuri said with as much bite as she could even though she was extremely nervous and afraid that moment. "Hmm, is that fear I hear Sayuri?" Pegasus asked she could hear the smile in his voice.
"I'm not afraid of you Pegasus; do not mistake my uncertainty for fear." Sayuri growled turning to face him hoping that if she did so he'd back away from her. Pegasus kept planted where he was, he had wanted her to turn around and face him. Bringing his arms in until they were touching her hips, so this way she couldn't turn away from him again. "Tsk, tsk, tsk Yuri. You can't lie to me, you are afraid." He breathed upon her face, she went to turn around, but one quick movement of moving his hands from the railing to the small of her back and closing the gap between them so his pelvis was placed upon hers kept her in place. "I want you to look at me anytime I talk to you don't turn away." Pegasus said his voice taking on an edge. Sayuri, who had turned her face away, slowly brought her eyes back to his face. "Good, now I want you to pretend that you are my guest here and that you are enjoying your stay with me. Second, you shall wear only what I have packed for you and you'll never wear these again. Third, you will call me Maximillion, or a cutesy pet name that you come up with. Fourth, you will attend every meal and when the finals arrive you'll attend those as well be seated beside me and when it's my turn to duel you shall cheer only for me." Pegasus informed her of his desires. "It almost sounds like you want me to pretend to be your girlfriend." Sayuri said nervously. "Something like that, see originally I was just going to kidnap you all take your souls and with the three of you missing I'd gain Kaiba corp. that way, but upon laying eyes on you I've changed my mind." Pegasus chuckled. Yes, he would force her to play his girlfriend, until he obtained enough millennium items to bring back Cecelia's soul, he will place it in Sayuri's body until he had all the millennium items to bring back Cecelia's body as well. "If I agree to these terms I want to see Mokuba and Seto at least once a day to ensure their safety." Sayuri countered. "To ensure the safety of your brother's you'll have to do more than pretend to be my girlfriend, you'll have to live up to it." Pegasus chuckled. It had been seven years since he felt the touch of a woman and if everything worked out his way, everything he did with Sayuri would actually be with his Cecelia.
