Prologue
"Mutt? Oi...Jounouchi. C-can you hear me?" Seto's voice cracked.
This wasn't supposed to happen.Why was Jounouchi here?What was he doing? All Seto had to do, to finish this whole stupid thing, was get everything recorded and get out. Then the police would come in before the smugglers left. Ever since he caught one of his employers using Kaiba Corp's name to help transport in and out illegal drugs, he had decided to set out revenge. He played along and lied to the dumb employee that he wanted in as well to make more money. At the same time he contacted the police. Everything had been going smoothly. Tonight was where everything was going to end and life would go back to normal again. But he didn't expect Katsuya to be here.
There was a double-cross. The smugglers wanted to kill Seto, to erase any evidence that may be left behind, but Katsuya had jumped in front of him got in the way. He had shielded Seto. And now he was lying, almost dead against him; so much blood had been lost. The police had rushed in as soon as they heard the gunshots. Katsuya was shot 7 times.
"Ah-aha. K-kaiba no y-yatsu? I…*coughs*…I'm g-go-gonna d-die ri-right?" Jounouchi smiled with a small laugh.
"No. No you're not. I won't let it happen. I promise you. Don't close your eyes no matter what you here me Pup? Now promise me…promise me Katsuya." Seto squeezed Katsuya's hands.
"N-nani…I woulda th-thought…*coughs* th-that y-you be g-glad…" Did he call me Katsuya?
"No one... no one would be glad to see someone they love die." Seto answered, closing his eyes as a teardrop fell.
Katsuya's shock turned into a small smile. "P-promise." Katsuya felt himself being lift up. He could hear the pounding of Seto's heart. Feel the warmth that spread to him through Seto's arms. The firmness of Seto's being penetrated Katsuya's senses, senses that were dulling. His eyes were tired. He wanted to sleep. He would just close them for a second, a mere second…
"Don't you DARE KATSUYA!" He shot his eyes opened wide and looked at Seto's petrified face.
Ah, he is really handsome. I've never seen him up close before. He has really pretty blue eyes.
"Hurry up! Take me to KC Hospital right now! And step on it! We don't have much time!"
Was that Kaiba's voice? Why is he yelling? Oh…right. I was shot. He said he loved me? Well he didn't say it technically but it was as good as any confession right? I am really happy to hear that. *giggles* And he called me Katsuya.
Strength was leaving him. It was hard, so, so hard to keep his eyes open. But he can't close them! He can't! He promised Seto. He won't go back on a promise. But tears filled his eyes because he was going to break it. He couldn't fight it anymore. He felt too weak. The thin string attaching him to the conscious world was breaking. Any moment now, he knew it would snap.
"Katsuya?"
Kaiba. Kaiba. Seto. Gomen. Gomen. Hontou ni gomen. Ima…muri dana.[1]
"G-gomen." The words came out of Katsuya's mouth and he closed his eyes.
-a break is here-[2]
"…It's faint but I'm afraid he won't last any longer. His liver and arteries were damaged. He lost so much blood; we gave him all that we could spare. It's a miracle he's still alive now, fighting a lost battle."
"IT'S NOT A LOST BATTLE!" Seto yelled. He stopped himself from yelling more and apologized. "Shit. Sorry Sensei." He thought for a moment, and then hope sparked in his eyes. "There's a way. There's a way to save him. Your current project. I know you've been researching possibilities about it."
"No that's impossible. It's just a hypothesis and some small testing done. I can't do it on a human. I'm not even sure it will work." The doctor said shaking his head.
"Let…..let him be your test." Seto said, determined. "If there's a way to save him do it! We don't have time….no...he doesn't have time…I.." Seto controlled himself from breaking down.
"Kaiba-taichou. Are you really sure about this?" The doctor asked, concern. What he was asking of the doctor, was all in all, illegal. But he couldn't live with himself, if Katsuya died. He knew it was selfish, but he loved the blonde. He always had. And he wasn't going to let him die.
"Was there a time I wasn't? Of course. Otherwise we wouldn't be having this conversation now, would we?" Seto stated annoyed at the doctor's stupid question.
"I have to make sure. You are aware of the side effects. I just hope you don't regret it."
"I would regret not saving him. Contact me immediately when you're done. I have some unfinished business to attend." Seto said his eyes full of killer intent.
