Nina: Well this is a treat. Finally we get the first chapter of this story up for all of you to enjoy. Whaddya say, Asa.

Asa: *snores*

Nina: Sleep again? She never wakes. Maybe if I kick her.

Asa: *opens one eye* Better not do that.

Nina: Well wake up for the premiere of this story. You worked hard on this chapter after all.

Asa: That I did but I don't think I have to stay awake just to read what I wrote. So if you'll excuse me…*flops over to sleep*

Nina: *shrugs* Oh well. Onward!!

~*~*~ Twisted Arrangement *~*~*~*~*~

"Mr. Seto Kaiba sir, your next appointment is here." The secretary commented through the small black communicator that sat on Seto's, large desk. Seto spun around in his large black computer chair facing his desk and stared down at the speaker where the message had be relayed from. Bored, he scratched the back of his ear and pressed a button in the center of the communicator.

"Okay, send him in." He replied running his fingers threw his chestnut brown hair. Slowly reclining, into his comfortable leather black chair he awaited for the door to open. A small knock, tapped on the other side of his door. "Come in." he said smoothly. The large brown wooden door creaked opened revealing a tall figure cloaked person in a thin long violet, velvet robe with the only flesh you could see on this person were there lips. Seto had to do a double take at the person's appearance; it certainly caught him off guard. 'Here we go…' thought Seto feeling an annoyed headache arise from his temples.

"You can sit down anytime." commented Seto, pointing to a chair not far from his desk with a hint of sarcasm. After a few moments of an un-comfortable soundlessness as the eerie silent person stayed near the door. Gradually the person walked to the chair seated near Seto's desk. 'What a freak.' Seto briefly thought blinking at the tacit person across from him. "Now, there must be a reason why you are here." Began Seto growing impatient of the ghostly person before him. Clearing his throat he was about to kick the person out for acting deaf-

"Give me all of your Egyptian God cards." a raspy thick voice remarked hardly above a whisper. Seto raised an eyebrow.

"Come again?" cocked Seto stiffly sitting up in his chair. He seized a nearby pen and begins to trifle with it, by clinking the end of the pen quickly.

"Give all of your God cards to me." the person licked there dry coarse lips and continued "and in return I can give you what ever you desire…" he paused "anything in the world you desire."

"So you just waltz in here demanding my God cards? Ha, how funny." Seto jeered standing out of chair. He began coolly pacing behind his large office chair with his arms behind his back.

"I will grant you anything you desire…" he repeated in a hissed.

"Anything I desire? I already have everything I desire." Seto coaxed in a mild tone. "Everything I want is merely at the tips of my fingers. I need no help in that department." Seto stopped pacing and faced the motionless figure. "At any rate, I have everything I want- including the God cards, which I will not be giving you" he smirked at the robed man. "So it seems that you have wasted your time." he rose his eyebrow in dismay. "And worse, my own"

"Give me the god cards…" the person paused once more "…or you will be sorry"

"Correction my friend." Seto shot, back leaning his hands onto his desk "You will be sorry if you don't leave my office in the next 5 seconds." Seto boldly eyed him with warning. The cloaked figure halted, before he slowly stood up and walked towards the door.

"Seto Kaiba, you put this all on yourself!" the figure hissed loudly before slamming his door. Seto rolled his eyes. 'Pathetic robed clown. Thinks he can simply walk into my office with a bathrobe on and order me around. Ridiculous!' he thought irritable sitting down in his comfortable chair and leaning back.

Closing his eyes he spun his chair around facing the window to his marvelous view , and dismissed the empty threat that had just been told to him 'It's nothing at all. Just an idiotic threat, which he won't be able to carry out.' he told himself.

Mokuba flopped on to his large wide fluffy bed. It had been a long day, and he was glad to be able to finally get some shut eye. Slowly he forced his tired limbs to roll over on his stomach, and enjoyed the feel of his smooth crisp clean sheets on his face and fingers. 'Ahhhhhh' he mentally purred as his body relaxed, and as his mind drifted off to sleep.

A loud tap knocked on the other side of his door. Mokuba eyes flashed open. "Oh what is it now?" he whispered miffed. He slowly lifted his head "Come in." he said forcing his weary voice to yell. Flopping his head back on his sheets he waited for someone to walk through his room.

knock knock

Mokuba growled angrily sitting up in his bed "I said come in!" he yelled angrily. The knock at the other side of the door persisted growing louder and louder, until it forced him to get up. "Gah! What type of fool can't open a freak'n door!" he shouted in a huff. He swung open the door in a scowl.

To his shock, no one was there. He blinked a few times feeling a stirring of fear in the pit of his stomach. He looked both ways down the long dark corridors. No one was there. And a ghostly cold chill in the air. And the deafening silence made the hairs on Mokuba's neck rise. Mokuba quickly closed his door and locked it. "It's nothing." he whispered to himself inhaling and exhaling himself to calmness. He raised his eyes to his bed only to see a tall looming figure in a long dark robe, with glowing purple eyes, starring back at him in silence. Paralyzed in fear all he could was gasp in dread and alarm- he was trapped! Mokuba legs trembled in fear as the robed figure slowly approached him.

In one swift moment the figure snatched Mokuba, covers his mouth, and speedily dashed out of the boy's room.
