Chapter One: Eventually Puppy and Puzzle Shipping
Seto Kaiba pressed his lips together as he stared at the computer monitor in front of him; he had read this essay numerous of times and he still wasn't satisfied with the results. It was a simple assignment that he was given for homework and he should have finished it in only an hour but he couldn't figure out what the problem was. With a deep sigh, he shook his head and closed the program to let his eyes rest a bit; he had more important things to focus on instead of the silly writing prompt he was given. Running a hand through his think locks of dark brown hair, he leaned back into his chair and let himself slump down. His back was killing him for the past few days and it didn't seem like it was going away anytime soon.
"Big brother; is it time for you to take me to the park?" a young voice called out as it was covered by the knocking sound.
"Mokuba, I thought I told you to leave me when I'm working," Seto growled as he pinched the bridge of his nose.
"But you promised!" Mokuba complained as the door opened.
"Look, have someone else take you. I'm busy at the moment," the older man said as he rubbed his temples, a headache was starting to form and he didn't want to deal with anyone at the moment.
"You never have time for me," Mokuba frowned as his voice started to sound irritated.
Looking up, Seto frowned as he saw his younger brother's true form starting to appear. Mokuba growled a bit as his lips curled up into an angry snarl, revealing sharpened teeth that glistened in the dim lighting. Seto knew that Mokuba was starting to mature into a fully mature dragon but it left his brother very insecure than when he was younger. Closing his blue eyes, the business owner sighed and knew that he had to go with Mokuba unless he wanted to have the building torn down. Pushing in his chair and walking over to his brother, Seto pulled the back collar of Mokuba's shirt to drag him along. Frustration and worry were inflamed as Seto suppressed his true form as they walked out of the room.
"Fine, no more than thirty minutes," Seto grumbled as Mokuba intently calmed down and skipped next to his older brother.
"Yay! I really want to have a snow cone," Mokuba commented as he punched a fist into his victorious act.
"Okay."
"I think Yugi and his friends will be there too."
"Good."
"Brother?"
"Fine."
"Are you even listening to me?!"
"Fine." "SETO!" Mokuba growled as he looked up to see that his brother had his phone pressed against his ear.
Mokuba bit his lower lip as he waited patiently for his brother to finish his call. It was always like this with him, Seto was always busy with work and nothing else; school work takes him no more than an hour to complete and the rest of his spare time was taken up by paperwork. He clenched his hands and dug his claws into his palms; Mokuba was starting to get irritated with the lack of time he spends with his brother. His body started to burn as the thoughts of his brother choosing work over him filled his thoughts. Mokuba was lucky enough to even see his bother for even a moment; he continued walking as his pace started to quicken. Anger started to boil up inside of him; he had finally gotten his brother to spend thirty minutes with him and he is talking on the phone for business.
"Hey Mister, you need to put a leash on your feral," a voice scoffed at the two brothers as they both stopped in their tracks and looked at the annoyed woman.
"I'll call you back…" Seto said into the phone before closing it and turning to the woman, "What did you say about my brother?"
The woman rolled her eyes before looking back at the two people in shock. Looking into cold icy blue eyes, she took a step back in fear as she looked at the famous CEO of Kaiba Corp, a design company that has been known for their gaming products. Though, that wasn't all the Kaiba Corp was known for; the CEO was said to be a rare pet that had descended from dragons, a very regal animal that only a handful actually exist. The rumors appeared to be true as she stared at the white scaled patches that glisten against the sunlight on the CEO's face and a long white tail flicked behind him. She pulled her hands up in defense, unable to comprehend the fact that she had just insulted a celebrity that was well respected.
"I thought so, Mokuba let's go," the dragon hybrid scoffed at the woman as he turned and his tail slowly disappeared behind the long white jacket he wore. The woman dropped to her knees in shocked as her canine pet knelt down next to her, trying to snap her owner out of it. Watching the dragon hybrid leave with his brother, she looked around slowly to see many eyes glaring at her mistake. Meanwhile, Mokuba didn't glance back at the woman who had called him a feral; instead, he looked up at his brother in awe. He had calmed down; his brother did care about him and knew that Seto wouldn't let anyone insult him because he cared about his little brother.
"Seto, the snow cones are this way," Mokuba said as he pulled on his brother's hands with his claws. Seto looked down at his young brother to see that he didn't retract his true form and he could clearly see his brother's orange tail flicking in excitement.
"Mokuba, this is why you get captured all the time," Seto growled as he stared at the orange tail.
"I'm too excited big brother! We never spend time together," Mokuba said as he dragged his older brother over to the snowcone stand.
"Ah, what can I get you two lads today?" the snow cone feline hybrid asked as she flicked her tail happily and smiled.
"Oh! I would like a cheery snow cone! What about you big brother?" Mokuba asked as he looked up at Seto.
"Make it blue raspberry," Seto said as he dug into his pocket to pay for the snow cones.
"Okay, coming right up," the feline hybrid cheerfully side as she went behind the counter to scoop up the snow cones.
"Excuse me sir," a low voice asked as Seto felt a tap on his shoulder. Turning around he came face to face with a man and his son with a pleasant smile on his face.
"What?" Seto asked as he crossed his arms, behind him Mokuba was having a small conversation with the feline hybrid.
"I was wondering how much you wanted for your pet dragon hybrid," the man asked as he patted his son's shoulder.
"He's not for sale."
"Oh come on, I am rather wealthy; I am willing to pay for anything for him."
"I said he is not for sale."
"Really?"
"I said no, now go away."
"Do you know who I am?"
"No, do you know who I am?"
"Why would I want to know who you are?"
"I don't know…maybe because I'm Seto Kaiba."
"…"
"Mokuba."
"Yes big brother?" Mokuba asked as he hurried over to his brother's side as he waved good-bye to the feline hybrid.
"We're going," Seto said as he wrapped an arm around his brother's shoulder and walked away from the shocked man.
"Here's your snowcone big brother, it's a bit melted," Mokuba blushed as he handed him a bitten into blue snowcone.
"Thanks."
Seto munched on the ice as he kept an eye on his younger brother and the people around them. His brother didn't understand how rare dragons were and was ignoring the fact that the reason why he kept getting kidnapped was to sell him for a large quantity of money. This was the reason why he didn't like taking Mokuba to public places, though he knew that he couldn't keep his brother locked up forever. Pressing his lips together he handed his half eaten snow cone to Mokuba to finish, he wasn't in the mood for eating anything sweet at the moment. He glared at anyone that looked at them as they headed back to Kaiba Corp, he needed to get Mokuba to a safe place that he could trust would keep him from being caught into slavery.
Joey Wheeler walked down the street with his hands in the jacket he bought only a few weeks ago, he spend his savings on this jacket since it was starting to get cold at night. He was coming from his job at the gas station and he was only a few minutes away from his house, which wasn't too bad compared to his last job. Clutching tightly to the pocket knife in his pockets, he was preparing himself if anything could happen when he was walking home. Joey Wheeler didn't live in the best neighborhood due to the fact that his father couldn't make enough money to support him and his son. Unlike what people claimed at school, his father wasn't an alcoholic nor was he a drug addict, grant it his father would go out on some times to get drunk but that was only at certain times and his father didn't do that often. With a sigh, Joey pulled on the pet collar around his neck and frowned at it; his boyfriend was very protective of him but he didn't mind it much. As he walked further, the blond jumped at the sound of a motorcycle engine in front of him. Looking up, Joey pressed his lips together as they suppressed a smile that was trying to make itself known.
"How's my pup doin'?" the motorcyclist asked as they held out a helmet towards the blond.
"Got off work," Joey said as he put the helmet on and swung his leg over to straddle the back seat of the motor cycle.
"Hold on tight."
"I ain't stupid ya kno'"
"I know that sweetheart."
Joey clutched on tightly to the man's waist as the motorcycle started and cycled down the road. A small smile formed on his lips as he wagged his tail a bit, not caring how awkward it was with his tail pressed up against the back of the seat. He was happy that he had found such a master that wanted a mutt like him, unlike many pet dog hybrids Joey was a mix of cat and dog. His father was a canine hybrid that had married a feline hybrid but due to their hybrid natures they didn't last long and ended up divorcing when he was very young. He stayed with his father because the man that his mother was marrying was also a feline hybrid and two feline hybrids raising a dog wouldn't do Joey any good. Joey didn't want to leave his younger half-sister, Serenity, but knew that she wouldn't feel comfortable being with canine hybrids when she herself was a pureblood feline hybrid. The motorcycle came to the slow halt outside an apartment complex and was parked by the side of the sidewalk. Stepping off of the motorcycle, he pulled off the helmet and smoothed down his hair so it didn't contain any static energy that was left from the padding.
"You look fine darlin'," the tall man said as he headed up the stairs of the apartment.
"Eh, who ya callin' darlin'?" Joey asked as he followed the dark haired man up to apartment number 207.
"You don't like that, what should I call you then Joey?"
"…Darlin' 's fine, Dem," Joey grumbled and blushed as he was pulled into the empty apartment.
"I missed you," Demetrius smiled as he and wrapped his arms around the smaller blond's waist, bringing him closer to him.
"It has only been a few hours Dem," Joey blushed as he kissed his boyfriend's chin before he was pulled in for a kiss.
"Mmm…still, we barely get to see each other," the taller man said as he let go of Joey and walked over to the kitchen to grab some soda, "besides, I can never wait to see you again.
"Thanks," Joey whispered as he was handed a can of soda before they both walked over to the couch, "I never see ya at school ya kno'."
"Mmm, well we have different friends," Demetrius noted as he slouched in the cushioned seat and let his dog hybrid drape over his lap.
He reached down and stroked the blond's hair and let his lips curl up as he heard a purr of enjoyment from his pet. This is what he loved about his hybrid's traits, he was as loyal and dedicated as a dog but still very independent and mysterious as a cat, which kept him interesting. Joey pressed his head against the thick fingers that was massaging his head and purred happily. Digging his claws into the leg below him, careful not to draw any blood, Joey nuzzled against his boyfriend's body making sure to mark his property with his scent. Demetrius laughed happily as he pulled Joey to sit on his lap and reached for the television remote, turning it onto the Duel Monsters channel featuring a tournament taking place in a nearby city. The duel between the two duelists caught Joey's attention, causing him to turn his head towards the TV. Joey rested his head against the dark haired man's shoulder and wagged his tail in delight as Demetrius scratched behind the blond's dog ears.
"Nya, you're distractin' me Dem," Joey whined a bit as he hunched over trying to appear mad but couldn't as his lips curled up into a small smile of delight.
"Hmmm, you didn't seem like you were complaining," Demetrius purred as he leaned over and kissed the dog hybrid's nose.
"Eh, well ya were."
"How long do we have?"
"A few hours, dad wants me back home early tonight."
"When can we see each other again?"
"Don't know."
"Well, we'll talk 'bout it later…but right now," Demetrius purred as he leaned towards the blond and pushed him down so he was hovering over his pet, trapping him on the couch, "let's enjoy our time together."
Joey blushed a bit as he thumped his tail against the couch and was pulled into a deep kiss. He truly did love Demetrious despite how they first met; he had to thank Yugi for changing his whole life around. Digging his claws into the back of Demetrious's shirt, the canine hybrid moaned into the kiss as he fought for dominance. The dark haired man smirked as he bit his pet's bottom lip, receiving a gasp in response, before darting his tongue in and making his status as alpha clear to his pup. The blond didn't complain as he knew that he was still the alpha mate in the relationship but didn't mind submitting to his alpha mate from time to time. The two grinded up against each other as they started to tumble down into pleasure; not caring about the thin walls of the apartment that barely concealed their moans.
Yugi Muto smiled as he turned the sign of the Kame Game Shop that his grandfather owns to say the store was closed. Waving at his grandfather a good-bye, Yugi rushed out of the store and ran towards the park where he was suppose to meet his boyfriend. It has been a while since they had started dating and it shocked the small feline hybrid that he was able to get into a relationship in the first place. Grant it, it was his curiosity about his sexuality that had gotten him into a relationship but he was truly happy. For years he had a crush on Tea, a childhood friend, but eventually realized that she was unsure about her feelings towards him because she was questioning her sexuality. It wasn't until about half a year ago when he started to question his own sexuality and started to explore with the help of Joey. His best friend was the one that introduced Yugi to his current boyfriend, Atem, and he had to thank Joey for a wonderful relationship. As the tricolored haired feline hybrid neared the large tree in the center of the park, he saw his tan boyfriend sitting down on the park bench looking at the ground. A grin appeared on the feline's face as he pounced to wrap his arms around the other man's arm.
"Atem! I'm here," Yugi smiled as he flicked his tail happily as the older man smiled and turned to feline.
"I was starting to get a bit worried Yugi," Atem smiled as he tilted Yugi's chin up so he could peck his lips.
"N-Not in public Atem," Yugi blushed as he pouted his lips a bit.
"Okay okay, why don't we visit Tea at her job," Atem suggested as he stood up and grabbed Yugi's hand.
"Sure, how about we play a Duel Monsters when we get home," Yugi smiled as he followed his boyfriend.
"Of course, I know how much you enjoy your card games," Atem chuckled as they walked down the street.
The shorter of the two looked up at his boyfriend; it had always puzzled Yugi on how he could have met someone that looked almost like him. The only real difference between them was the slight height difference; Atem was only an inch or two taller, their skin tone and their hair style. Yugi, being a pureblood Muto feline hybrid, was gifted with the famous tricolored fur that made the Muto hybrids rare and famous. Though, the Muto hybrids are frowned upon due to their weak bodies and show life span. Though, Atem's appearance suggests that he was part of the human family that had eventually created the Muto hybrids due to the similar tricolored hair style. It didn't bother the two at all due to the fact that they were lovers.
"Welcome to Kaibaland Café! Where would you two boys want to sit?" a young female asked as she smiled at them.
"Ah, where would you like to sit Yugi?" Atem asked as he looked down at his feline hybrid.
"Outside, that's where Tea always working at," Yugi smiled as the waitress walked them over to a table under an umbrella.
"So, do you know what you want to eat this time?" Atem asked as he rested his arms on the table in front of him.
"Well this week is hamburger week and I really want one," Yugi smiled as he smiled happily.
"Haha, I should have guessed. My kitten always enjoys his hamburgers," Atem chucked as he reached over across the table to pet his hybrid's head causing him to receive a gasp and purr from the feline.
"Uh-hem, I must ask you two boys to please keep affection inside the bedroom," a feminine voice said as the two males looked up to see a brunette with her hands on her hips.
"T-Tea! I-It's not what…I mean we're not…" Yugi panicked and blushed as they were caught showing too much affection.
"Aw, come on Yugi. You know I'm just kidding. So what do you boys want today?" Tea asked as she pulled out a notepad and pencil.
"Well, I would like a bottle of water and you Yugi?" Atem asked as he glanced from Tea to Yugi.
"Oh…well I would like to have some water also since grandpa says I should eat healthier," Yugi mumbled the last part in sadness.
"Alright, I will be right back and then I can take your order," Tea smiled as she walked away.
"Why would your father say that?" Atem asked as he looked at his feline.
"He's always worried about my health, you know that," Yugi mumbled as he looked down at the table.
"Well, you could eat more vegetables," Atem joked as he smirked.
"Wah!" Yugi gapped as Tea came back to give them their drinks.
"Alright, what may I get you two?" Tea asked as she smiled at her friends.
