Seto Gets the Girl
By Jade Matsuri
I loved my job then. That was before she came along. I was a hard worker then. I didn't believe in slacking off. Anything to perfect my Duel Disk System. I was after all, the owner of Kaiba Corp. I was sitting in my office working on the new prototype when I received a call from my secretary.
"There is someone here to see you sir."
"Tell them to come later."
"But sir, it's about the card Exodia." I was suddenly not busy anymore.
"Send them up right away."
Indeed the woman was beautiful. She dressed casually and held five cards in her hand. How she had managed to get them, I don't know.
"Where did you get Exodia?" I demanded. The woman laughed.
"What? No bragging? No 'I'm Seto Kaiba the world dueling champion?' Come on Seto, you should know that I am your average thief. I steal rare cards and sell them. My name is Jade Matsuri." She bowed. I had no time to play games with her.
"Oh but Seto," she said, "you play Duel Monsters don't you? Is that not a game?" How did she know what I was thinking? She didn't seem to have any Millennium Items with her.
"You're right, I don't have any of that clunky Egyptian jewelry. I am.I guess I'm not you're average thief. In fact, I'm not a thief at all. I'm not even human."
"Shut up and tell me how you got Exodia." She smiled slyly and held up three more cards. My eyes widened at the sight of the Blue Eyes White Dragon. How did she get those?
"You see? I don't need to duel to earn rare cards. I can simply use magic to get them out of your deck and then some. I can even bring the cards to life to do my bidding. I am only here to offer you Exodia on one condition."
"What is that?" I asked as she handed me my Blue Eyes. Jade's smile turned wicked.
"For each piece of this monster you shall go on a date with me."
"WHAT?!" I roared. She smiled wider.
"Imagine how many cards you could get from me Seto. I can have any card I want. Even Maximillian Pegasus' powers don't compare to the ones I was born with. I don't need a gold eye to see what card you will play next. I don't need to defeat you to take your soul. I definitely don't have a split personality." She spoke the truth. She could have any card she desired. No one could stop her.
"Actually, I'm all but invincible but not unkillable." She said.
"If I killed you then what?"
"You'd take my powers into your own body and spend the rest of your miserable life trying to master them." I imagined my date with Jade. I would have to keep my mind totally blank so she couldn't snoop around. There was nothing I could do about it if we dueled though.
"Seto?"
"What?"
"This isn't the first time I've seen you."
"When did you last see me?"
"At the Intercontinental Championship. The one you and I were invited to. I sat in the audience and watched you. I admit.I was quite taken with you."
"You don't even know me."
"I know you Seto. You're not as bad as everyone thinks you are. You love your brother don't you?"
"Yes."
"Well then, tell him I said hello." And she was gone. Like that, she disappeared. I was actually looking forward to our dates.
