Ok, this is based on the DUBBED version that got me pissed off enough to throw my Eevee doll at the TV when Yami appeared, and yell and practically curse out Anzu when she started this lil rant. Sorry, I believe her friendship rants, but this one hit far too close to home. It put me into a depressed mood until my sensei came, I got beat up, and landed on my head while trying to do a forward roll while laying on a ball and forgot to turn my head to the side.
Enough with my rants, this is in Seto's POV and his thoughts on that scene. His reasons for fighting, for those of you who still can't figure it out. NO SETO/RYOU! THAT'S RIGHT, WILDWOLF-CHAN'S DOING A FIC WITHOUT SETO/RYOU! You may all faint now, or wonder how badly she hit her head during her martial arts lesson.
Um, it was bad, in case anyone cares.
"He lost the game." I mumbled. That's all that matter in this instant, the result of the game. The result that led to me being a step closer to winning my life back.
Anzu's eyes flared. "The game?! Yuugi may have lost one lousy Duel Monsters game, but at least he hasn't lost his heart! Not like you, Seto Kaiba! You spend so much time with your machines, you've forgotten what being human is about!"
I growled. Unlike what they thought, I still had my heart. But the reason I had a heart, the reason I was still alive, was taken and I had to get him back. I don't care if they couldn't understand, but my entire world was lying in the hands of the monster called Pegasus.
Yet still Anzu continued on with her rant. "Yuugi has a heart Kaiba, Yuugi has us- friends that'll stand with him till the end, no matter whether he wins or loses some lousy game. And what do you have, Seto Kaiba? What do you have at the end of the day? Tell me! TELL ME!"
Mokuba, that's who I had to come home to everyday... but no more. Not any longer, after that bastard...
"I have all that I need!" I caught the five star chips I had won and started walking off, hearing them yell at me behind my back. I didn't care. I had my reasons.
Mokuba...
My whole world gone in an instant. When we were adopted, I wanted him to be safe, not used as a scapegoat against me. It wasn't his fault...
I wasn't bluffing, I would have jumped. I would have let myself fall from that tower and die- crush and broken upon the rocks at the bottom of the castle. It was just all or nothing. If I hadn't won, I would never get Mokuba back, and I would literally have no reason for my existence.
But since I did win, I had hope. A little bit of hope shining within my heart. I had a heart and it needed to be fulfilled. My heart is with my brother, he is my reason for being.
The path to that victory may have been dishonorable, but Mokuba was all I had left and he was taken. Yuugi let his weak emotions get in the way. And he still had his friends to support him. Who did I have?
My life was instantaneously yanked from my grasp.
