"Here we are boys. Your new home."
Seto glared at the man who he thought was his uncle. Seto was standing in front of the gates of Domino City Orphanage holding Mokuba's hand.
"Now take care you two. Don't just go off and die. Not like we'd care." He turned around and walked into the car-which he had bought with the boy's inheritance-with his wife and drove off.
"Come with me Mokuba. We are own our own now, trust no one and stay be me at all times. Got that kid?" His voice was stern and strict but holding affection for his younger sibling.
They started walking through the gate and along the path to the orphanage. They see children playing on the yard. When they reach the door, Seto opened it and walked in f Mokuba.
Several kids ran right in front of the two while playing a game of tag. A woman walked out of a room down the hallway they immediately entered. Once she noticed them she walked in their direction smiling.
"You two must be Seto and Mokuba. If you will wait for one minute I will have some one show you to your room. If you don't mind you two will have to share. We are sort of low on rooms lately. SERENITY! COME HERE!"
Seto turned his head as he heard a small girl about his age come from the direction of where the kids were playing tag just went. 'Wow, she's pretty.' Seto thought.
"Serenity Hun," Serenity's mother asked interrupting Seto's thoughts "will you take these two to an empty room?"
"Ummm….we have an empty room?" 'And her voice is so sweet. She must be nice too.' Her mother nodded and gave her direction and Seto could tell she wasn't paying attention but thinking of an evil plan. He would ask her what it was later. It's part of a child's code to not squeal on others. Of course most kids break the code. But Seto wouldn't.
He watched as the girl nodded and started leading them up the stairs. "So what is it you little evil mind was thinking of?"
"Uh… you could tell huh? Well there is a better room than what my mother gave you so I'm giving you that room."
"Ohh thank you. I'm Seto and this is my little brother Mokuba." He stuck out his hand and Serenity took and properly introduced herself. "Your name's pwetty." Mokuba said quietly.
Serenity giggled and thanked him. "Well now that we are officially friends, let's get to your room." She continued leading the way and once she got to the top of the stairs she looked back and saw Mokuba was having trouble going up the stairs. She smiled slightly and looked down the hallway. Once she saw who was coming down the hallway, her smiled quickly faded.
"Hey Serenity." The kid said with mock friendship. "How's life with parents?"
"Leave me alone David. I didn't do any thing." Serenity answered shyly. Seto had made it next to her and took her hand.
"Hee, Hee. New kids too? Wow like hitting' two birds with one stone. So did you're parents dump you here too? Or was it another relative?" Asked one of David's friends named Zeb.
"Ignore them Seto. They're just jealous because they know they'll never be adopted."
"WE WILL TOO." Shouted David. He quickly walked up to her and pushed her to the ground. When she started to sniffle Seto-with Mokuba in hand- moves in front of her. "Hey! She didn't do anything to you leave her alone!" Seto let go of Mokuba's hand and punched David in the jaw. David was so taken aback he just stood there, with hiss pride squashed. But once he regained his sense he high tailed it out of there followed by his friends.
Seto reached down and helped Serenity up. "Thanks Seto. I really appreciate it." In response he just hugged her and took both of the kid's hands. Serenity started leading them again.
They all stopped when Serenity put her hand on a door handle. She opened it and the three of them walked in.
/She walked in leading the two others behind her.
"This isn't the room I was supposed to take you too as you know but I want to show you something.
She walked over to the closet and opened it. She waved for the two of them to follow her.
"Where are you going Serenity?" Seto asked curiously. Serenity grabbed his hand, whose hand grabs Mokuba's, who's completely lost right now.
"I was wondering around one day and I found this. It leads straight out to the playground."
"Cawool!" Said Mokuba beginning to really like Serenity.
Five minutes later they reached a door. Still holding Seto's hand, Serenity walked through.
"Wow it's prettier than I thought outside." Seto said in daze form. He looked over at Serenity and she smiled back.
"Now Seto Mokuba," she said slowly turning to them. "I have to go rearrange the room chart." She waved good bye, and walked off.
Seto smiled at her retreating back and just kept looking at her. Mokuba looked at him and tried to get his attention. "Seto!" He waved his hands in front of his brother's face, and when that didn't work he pushed him.
"Ahhhh! Mokuba what was that for?"
"Why did you keep looking at her?" And answering his own question he said. "Ewww! SETO! You don't like her do you? That's gross! She's a girl. She has cooties."
"Hhhhmmmmm…. No she doesn't Mokuba. She can't. She's perfect."
"EWWWW!"
"There's no such thing as cooties Mokuba. There a figment of the imagination."
"What ever Seto. Let's go with and play with her after she's done."
"OK!" The two ran up to follow Serenity to the room chart. When the got right behind her the poked her on the shoulder. Serenity turned around and smiled at them. "Come on." She said quietly.
They all ran back into the orphanage and into a room. Serenity went behind the desk and pulled out the drawer. She pulled out the chart and erased some other room saying that it was there, and wrote it onto the other room she gave them.
"Ok now that that's done, I need to do my home work."
"I'll help you. What is it in?" Seto said quickly.
"It's algebra. And thank you." They looked at each other and blushed.
"Ewwwwww! Do you have to look so cushy at each other?"
They laughed and serenity went to a different room and Serenity got her home work from her mom. "Now Serenity I want you to get this done as soon as possible. I get off in a half an hour."
"OK!" She ran off again. Followed by Seto and Mokuba.
"Is that your mom Serenity?" Seto asked confused.
"Yeah didn't you know? My mom works here so I spent all my time here."
"Oh." Well let's get your home work done so we can play more."
"Ok. Let's go." Serenity said.
Seto and Serenity finished the home work together teaching Mokuba in the process. When they were done, they had 10 minutes left to play. They just spent it talking about them selves, Mokuba rolling his eyes at how sick they were.
