Yo, peeps. This is my first fic. After some convincing *cough*death threats*cough* by a friend, I decided to post this.

Disclaimer: If I owned YuGiOh, it wouldn't be nearly as popular.

Now, ON TO LE STORY

Kaiba POV

It was raining. Again. I looked out of the window of my limo at the crappy apartments that decorated the neighborhoods. Just as we passed an alley, I saw a flash of blonde. It couldn't be-

"STOP THE CAR", I yelled. I threw the door open and ran into the pounding rain. Sitting in a pitiful heap in a puddle of his own blood was Joey Wheeler. He looked unconscious. His hair was matted with blood, his breathing was shallow and his face was swollen in places I didn't think possible. I know what you're thinking. We're rivals; I shouldn't care for his wellbeing. Well, too bad I do. He was the only person (beside Yugi) who could look me in the eye without cringing in fear. I respected that. But back to the current situation. I was just about to call an ambulance when Wheeler groaned.

Normal POV

Joey groaned as he was roused into consciousness. He felt someone standing over him. With his one good eye Joey looked up only to see Seto Kaiba. He groaned again.

"Whaddya wan' Kaib'?"

To say Seto was surprised Joey was conscious was an understatement. With the amount of blood he'd lost, Seto was amazed he was alive.

"How did you get yourself into this mess?"

"Wha's dat supposed ta mean?"

"Can you stand Wheeler?"

Joey looked down at his mangled leg. It bent at an awkward angle and had a giant brown-purplish bruise.

"I guess not," Kaiba sighed as he carefully pulled the wheezing blonde to his feet.

Joey POV

Great. This is just what I needed. Kaiba just had to be the one to find me. At least it wasn't some creeper, or the guys who did this to me. If they knew I was still alive, who knows what would've happened.

Normal POV

Kaiba shuffled Joey into his limo. He tried to ignore the trail of blood. As the engine started Joey got even paler. His honey brown eyes began to cloud over. Kaiba instantly regretted moving him then.

"Step on it. Contact my private doctor before we get there", he ordered. He chanced a glance at the blonde only the gag. There was even more blood. All of it coming from Joey's abdomen.

*****TIME SKIP******** o3o

The doctor had finally come back from Joey's guest room.

"How is he?"

"He sustained some trauma to the head, a broken leg and a split lip. He also had a couple of stab wounds. The swelling in his face should go down after about a week. Whoever did this was trying to kill him"

Kaiba thought for a second. He knew the mutt had been a thug. He'd seen how he could handle himself in a fight. So how had the mutt gotten so beaten up? It was as if he had just sat there and taken it.

"I'll send you my bill," the doctor muttered on his way out the door.

The brunette walked into the guest room. He looked at the blonde on the bed. His breathing was still shallow, but not as bad as before.

'What happened to you, mutt? How did you get like this?'

So. How was it? Sucky? Please review and tell me what you think.

Sorry it was so short. I didn't want to go overboard in case no one liked this.

Ciao~
