It is a comfortable spring day in Domino City and a young boy named Mokuba Kaiba has snuck out of his brother's corporation, Kaiba Corp, to just take a light stroll around the city. He soon comes across an animal shelter. 'That's just what Seto and I need,' he thinks logically, 'A pet'. And so, curiosity getting the best of him, he heads inside to look around.
A young, pretty woman, probably in her mid 20s or 30s, is sitting at the receptionist desk doing some work, when she hears Mokuba enter. She looks over at him and smiles kindly. "Ah, good morning, young man. How may I help you?"
"I'm looking for a cat. Not too old or shabby. My brother likes things that are in good, even perfect, shape." he tells the woman, shyly.
"Hmm, I see. I might have just the cat you're looking for. Please follow me." She leads him to the back, where cats, dogs and various other animals are kept. She then walks up to a cage that holds a beautiful light brown cat with a bushy tail, obviously a long-hair breed slightly, with eyes as blue as sapphires.
The woman takes the cat out of the cage. "Ah, here we are. How is this one? Her name is Jewel and she is very friendly. A previous visitor brought her in after considering her a stray. But I'm sure you'll provide a lovely home for her."
"Oh, she's perfect, thank you!" Mokuba exclaims, clearly excited.
"You are most welcome, young man." she tells him with a smile. "And thank you. Enjoy."
So after paying the woman, Mokuba heads home with his new "gift", certain that his brother would like Jewel. But this cat is not who she seems to be-she is actually human, under a strange spell, by the name of Tea Gardner-and Seto's reaction was not what Mokuba expected either...
"I'm running a company, Mokuba! I don't have time to care for obnoxious furballs!" Seto shouts angrily, furious that his little brother would do something like this without his consent first.
"But-"
"No buts! Take it back! Now!"
With a sigh and a heavy heart, Mokuba leaves to take the cat back. But then an idea comes to him. 'Hey, maybe Yugi and Yami would want her.' He heads toward the Game Shop, hoping that at least this plan works...but will it?
