Hey guys! Long time no see, eh? Well, I've uh... been getting the urge to write again and so I picked up my pencil and notebook and started again started. I deleted Fate's Mistake mainly because I didn't like where I was going with it anymore and realized I didn't think it through well enough so I started on this instead... So remember Blackmail? Remember Seto and Kisara in it? Remember Kisara explaining to Mana in chapter nine how her and Seto got together? Yea, this is that. AND! It follows the same format so hope that didn't drive you all up the wall or anything. Enjoy!

Persuasion

Prologue

That bitch!

Does she not know who I am?

I am Seto Kaiba. The Seto Kaiba and she had the nerve to say such things. To my face no less!

What a hypocrite even. The nerve to call me arrogant and self-absorbed; a girl like Kisara Higurashi – a goddamn heiress to an oil empire – has more people worshipping the ground she walks on than I do.

This should not bother me as much as it does but… I hate to admit it, especially to myself but she got the better of me. Caught me off guard, something almost no one can do and I let myself be beaten.

This pampered brat, all she does is just sit around and works for nothing and my father thought me and her would be a wonderful match? That heart attack must have targeted his mind as well for that brat and me are complete opposite ends of the spectrum; the idea itself sickens me.

Since his heart attack, I handle everything for my father. Like running KaibaCorp and keeping it up and running to the highest functioning level possible. Like making sure Mokuba is fed, clothed and looked after while my father rests. Like making sure the house bills are paid and on top of all that, to keep fighting with my idiot cousin at the top ranking spot at school. Considering I'm only sixteen years old, that is a hell of an accomplishment. But of course, I'm so self-absorbed unlike that heiress because she would know so well since she… what was it again – smiles, nods, looks pretty and gets set up on dates with older men?

Oh yes, of course I'm the arrogant one. What a completely hard life, how dare I not be more sensitive to her plight? And as such, we could not be any more different and therefore that date should've ended from the moment I arrived.

I shouldn't care. I shouldn't be bothered. I should let it go.

But no. What she said to me was unforgiveable. How she treated me was intolerable.

Clearly, this brat has messed with the wrong person. Nobody speaks to me like that, not unless they are up for a fight. Oh, this is a fight indeed – one I cannot just sit by and let her win, a fight for my very pride! Just you wait Kisara Higurashi, I have a plan to get back at you and get back at you I shall!

Um, yea… hope you all like this so far and um… enjoy it too. I decided for Seto's POV on these things instead because you already know Kisara's from when she explained it so I thought Seto's would be fun. LOL, hey – this is new though, for once the main guy is a dick on purpose because Seto Kaiba is a dick in canon all the way and yea, I'll shut up and sit here nervously now. Review please!
