Author's Note: A Christmas gift... a Seto/Serenity ficcie (don't worry, it will eventually get there). As usual, I used the English names of the characters 'coz I don't remember all of their Japanese names, gomen. I hope I can finish before Christmas (the muses are not a-mused).

Scene 1. AT THE KAIBA MANSION
The card reads:
You are cordially invited
to the
CHRISTMAS MASQUERADE BALL
to be held on 24 December
at 7 in the evening
at the Kaiba Mansion
[Boys to wear their prettiest gowns, girls to come in their elegant suits.]
'Just what kind of maggot crawled up into your brain this time, Mokuba!?'
It was a typical morning at the Kaiba household.
Seto Kaiba, the young CEO of Kaiba Corp, is already at the breakfast table. A cup of coffee in his hand, his laptop computer in front of him, an untouched plate of bacon and eggs pushed well out of his reach, and a shout at the top of his lungs.
Mokuba looked at his brother and mentally reminded himself to do something to make Seto relax a little from his work. Correction, make that a lot... and quickly. The party will do his brother a lot of good, he hoped.
'There is nothing wrong with my brain, and this is the guest list for the party. And you will also be there, big brother. No buts about it.'
'How can you ask me to dress up as a...'
'All the boys will be dressed up as girls, remember? Plus, here is the list for the food, music, lightning and decorations needed.'
Seto skimmed through the new list handed to him by his brother then looked back inquiringly at Mokuba.
'You want me to prepare all of these things?'
'No, I am just showing it to you. I have all of these things under control, including our costumes, so you don't have to worry.'
Seto didn't like that tone of voice from his brother. It usually means that he is planning some kind of mischief again.
'It's the whole party thing that's got me worried. Wait! What do you mean OUR costumes? And you haven't eaten your breakfast yet so don't think that you will be allowed to go out now.'
'Oh, it's okay, I will be having breakfast with Yugi and the others today. I still haven't given them their invitations yet and we will be going out later to find some costumes for them.'
Mokuba ran out of the house before his brother could gainsay him. He just knew that his plan will work out well and that the masquerade ball will be a blast.
