...

"Mokuba, hurry up or we're both going to be late for school," Seto Kaiba called, knocking on his younger brother's bedroom door.

"I'm coming!" Mokuba replied.

A moment later, the younger Kaiba emerged from his room.

"Do you have to work again tonight?" he asked. He silently prayed that Seto would say no. He hadn't been able to see much of his older brother lately. It seemed there was always something Seto had to do. Whether it was a meeting, a project, or some kind of public appearance, Seto seemed to stay busy.

But then, Mokuba knew his brother was the one running KaibaCorp, so he knew he would almost always be working. Mokuba knew that it wasn't Seto's fault that he was constantly busy, but that didn't stop his little brother from missing him.

However, tonight might actually turn out to be different. Maybe Seto wouldn't have to do anything. Maybe…

Mokuba's hopes crashed down as Seto nodded.

"I'm afraid so, Kid," he answered.

Mokuba sighed and crossed his arms.

"You're always working," the eleven-year-old pouted. "I feel like we haven't spent time together in practically forever."

"You do have a point there," Seto agreed. "Alright, how about I take tonight off and it'll just be the two of us?"

"Really?" Mokuba's entire face seemed to brighten up.

A rare smile flickered across Seto's face, a smile that only his little brother could get out of him.

"Yes," he answered. "After school, we'll do whatever you want to do."

"Okay," Mokuba's smile grew bigger as he threw his arms around his brother's waist.

Seto patted his brother's shoulders and hugged him back for a minute or two before releasing him.

"Let's go before we run late," the older boy said.

Without another word, the two headed off to school.

...

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah, I couldn't believe it myself when I first heard it."

"I guess he's not the best duelist there is."

"I guess not."

All morning, Seto could hear these things whispered around him. He should have known it would be only a matter of time before everyone in Domino City knew that he, Seto Kaiba, had lost to a seemingly amateur duelist like Yugi Muto. But, the CEO of KaibaCorp was determined not to give anyone the satisfaction of knowing that it bothered him, so he did his work quietly like always and ignored any questions that were not related to school.

"Looks like the great Kaiba isn't as great as he thinks he is."

Seto didn't look up from his book. He already knew that all too familiar voice belonged to Joey Wheeler, one of Yugi's annoying friends.

"What? Nothin' to say?" Joey continued. "Or did you run out of comebacks when Yugi put you in your place?"

"At least I had a halfway decent opponent!" Seto snapped, having just about enough. "As opposed to dueling against a dog like you!"

"Come on, guys, let's not dwell on something that's over and done with," Yugi smiled nervously. "Nice to see you again, Kaiba."

"I can't say the feeling's mutual, Muto," Seto retorted, glaring at the four friends, particularly Yugi.

"He's trying to be nice and you still act like a jerk to him? Wow, you're unbelievable!" Téa Gardner exclaimed, glaring back at him.

"Acting? Téa, bein' a jerk just comes naturally to someone like Kaiba here," Joey explained to the brunette girl. "People like him care about themselves and that's it."

"I didn't come here to be insulted!" Seto nearly shouted at Joey. "Especially by a rank amateur like you!"

"Guys, let's just go," Tristan suggested.

"I agree with Tristan," Yugi concurred.

"Me too," Téa added.

Joey said nothing, but glared at Seto as he and his friends left the taller boy alone.

Seto rolled his eyes. Who did that Wheeler think he was? He probably didn't know the first thing about Duel Monsters.

...

When school let out for the day, Mokuba felt a big grin appear on his face. He couldn't wait to meet up with Seto. Finally, for the first time in months, it would just be him and his big brother.

"I can't wait!" the preteen boy exclaimed, racing happily down the street. One nice thing about his school and Seto's was that they were only a block apart.

Mokuba was so excited when he crossed the street to get to his brother's school he never saw the-out-of-control red pickup truck speeding toward him; he never heard the screeching wheels. By the time he realized what was happening, it was too late.

...

Seto was almost relieved when school ended for the day. And now, as he walked through the front doors, the CEO of KaibaCorp slowly put the events of the day out of his mind. Tonight, he was taking the night off of work for the first time in almost two months so that he could spend time with Mokuba, his little brother. After all, he had promised and whenever he made a promise to Mokuba, he would try his hardest to keep it.

"Joey, I have to say, that was a tad uncalled for back at school," came a voice a short distance from behind Seto, pulling the teenage boy out of his thoughts.

"Come on, Bakura," Joey huffed. "Not you too! Man, why does everybody keep raggin' on me for what I said to Kaiba? The stuck-up jerk was askin' for it!"

"Yeah, I think you both could have handled it better," Téa insisted with a disapproving frown.

"Why are you all takin' his side?" Joey was so angry his face was turning red.

"Be careful, Joey. That vein might pop out of your forehead," Tristan teased.

"SHUT UP, TRISTAN!" Joey snarled, fire in his eyes.

"Joey, we're not taking sides," Yugi explained, trying to calm his friend. "We're just saying."

Now Seto had had enough.

"If you have something you want to say, say it to my face!" he spun around and yelled. "And I'll thank you not to talk about me as if I'm not right in front of you!"

"You wanna go, Rich boy?" Joey challenged, balling his hands into fists. "We'll go right now!"

"Joey, stop," Yugi put a hand on his friend's shoulder.

"Stay outta this, Yug," Joey told him. "This is between me and Kaiba. It's about time someone taught this guy some manners."

"You're going to teach me manners? Then please, I'm all ears, Mutt Boy," Seto snorted.

"That tears it!" Joey snapped, only to be restrained by Tristan.

"Joey, don't!" Tristan exclaimed. "He's not worth it!"

Suddenly, a loud scream filled the air.

"Someone call an ambulance!" a girl's voice cried out. "That little boy's been run over!"

Yugi turned to see if what the girl had said was true.

"Kaiba..." the shorter teen's voice trailed off.

"What?" Seto barked.

"Isn't that your little brother?" Yugi tried to keep his voice steady.

Seto's eyes widened as he whirled around to the scene of the crash. There, in the center of the road, Mokuba lay in a crumpled heap, blood seeping from underneath his thick, black hair.

Forgetting Yugi, Joey, and the others, Seto pushed through the crowd, determined to reach his brother.

"Kaiba, wait a minute!" Yugi shouted, grabbing his arm. "They have to get Mokuba to the hospital! They have to get him out of there first!"

"Let go of me!" Seto snapped.

"Hold up!" Joey grabbed his other arm. "Yugi's right, after they get some help for him, then you'll be able to-"

"I said LET GO OF ME, YOU DORKS!" Seto snarled, yanking his arms free and shoving past the two.

A moment later, Seto reached Mokuba.

"It's okay now, Mokuba," he said, picking up his brother's small form. Mokuba looked as though he was asleep and his older brother almost didn't want to bother him.

"Come on, Mokuba, wake up," Seto put his arm under the child to help him sit up. Mokuba's head fell forward, hiding his face behind a curtain of thick, dark hair.

Mokuba's body remained limp.

Seto felt his chest tighten. This couldn't be happening. Not to Mokuba. Not to his little brother…

"Come on, Mokuba," he tried again, rocking Mokuba's body back and forth like he had done when Mokuba was a baby. "Come on, wake up for your big brother. Wake up."

Yugi and the others stared in shocked silence. None of them had ever seen this side of Kaiba before.

"Yug', please tell me I'm seein' things right now," Joey said.

Yugi shook his head.

"No, Joey," he told his friend. "Not unless we're all seeing things."

"It's possible," Téa chimed in. "It's very possible."

"I don't know," Yugi said, watching as Seto held onto his brother, as if the small child's body was the only thing keeping him there.

"Wake up, Mokuba," he was saying over and over. "Come on, wake up, Mokuba."

Tears began to gather in Téa's eyes. A look of horror was etched onto Bakura's face. Yugi just stared at Seto and his brother with a look of horror and pity.

...

Seto shut out everything around him. Nothing mattered to him right now. Nothing except Mokuba...

'You can't die,' he said, staring down at the precious body in his arms. 'We've been through everything together, Mokuba. You can't die, little brother. I won't let you...'
