Title: Because of you

Summary: Mokuba's an awful child. He loves fighting and causing mischief but that all changed when he met Jounouchi. JounouchiXMokuba or in other words, JoeyXMokuba.

WARNING: this story has a VERY (if I could, I would put more emphasis in 'very') OOC Mokuba, all the character are OOC…the story's kind of AUish too

Another thing…

Ages:

Mokuba = 11 (I know, he's young but I don't want to make him older, is that bad? He's a bit stronger in this story too)

Seto= 16

Jounouchi/Joey = 16

XxX+XxX

Mokuba smirked as he looked at his victim with contempt while he was holding the man's shirt, "Have any last words?"

The man swallowed, "Please Kaiba, have mercy on me! I-I didn't mean to make you trip. It was an accident. A complete accident!! I swear!"

Mokuba raised his face, glaring at the man who was much bigger than him, "Too late for groveling."

BAM

Blood was everywhere, the walls, the floor, the ceiling…everywhere. The young Kaiba looked at his bloody fist, he opened up his hand, "You made me do this." Then he left leaving the man to bleed until help hopefully comes.

The child put on his hood then put his hands in the pockets of his leather jacket as he walked home.

After a few minutes Mokuba arrived home. He was warmly welcomed with a "welcome back" from Isono.

Mokuba's eyes glared at him, "Isono, how's Seto and how's everything going so far?"

Isono looked away, "Kaiba-sama's…Kaiba-sama's very displeased. You're tutor called and said that you haven't been learning properly and that you've been skipping sessions."

Mokuba laughed and took off his jacket and handed it to Isono, "That idiot, he should just quit. I'm already way smarter than him."

Isono followed Mokuba upstairs which made the boy turn to him scowling, "Isono, I'm not going to strip for you."

Isono's eyes widened and shook his head vigorously as he blushed, "I just…I just wanted to talk to you…man to man."

Mokuba smirked and sat on his bed, "Close the door then start talkin'"

The old man did as he was told, "Mokuba-sama, why are you doing this?"

Mokuba blinked, "Doing what?" he demanded gritting his teeth.

Isono flinched, "You're not you. Where was the old Mokuba-sama, the Mokuba-sama that was on Kaiba-sama's good side? You dyed your hair, began wearing leather, being very violent—"

Mokuba threw a lamp at Isono, "Get out!! GET OUT NOW ISONO!!"

Isono bowed and left quickly to tend to his now bleeding head.

Mokuba threw himself on the bed, 'So what, I changed, no big deal. If they can't deal with who I am now then they could just…' Mokuba stopped, he looked at the ceiling, 'Seto gave up on me; Isono won't. I hate them both…'

Isono was a slightly short man. He tried to reach for the medical box but he couldn't reach it. The man sighed, "I can't be that short."

A pair of long arms grabbed the medical box, "Isono, here."

Isono turned to Seto who handed the elder the medical box, "Ah, thank you Kaiba-sama."

Seto's eyes narrowed, "How did you get that bruise?"

Isono looked down, "I-it's really not important. A slight wound, nothing more."

Seto's eyes widened, "Mokuba did this, didn't he?" without another word, Seto left to go see his younger brother.

When Seto opened the door to Mokuba's room, he saw his brother listening to music. Mokuba didn't even notice Seto coming in until the brunette slammed the door shut.

Mokuba took off the earplugs and scowled at Seto, "Seto, what are doing here?" he started to smirk, "I haven't seen you in ages, what's up?"

Seto growled, "Cut the crap Mokuba. Why did you hurt Isono?"

Mokuba looked outside the window, "He was getting to personal…that's all I'm saying so now I'd appreciate it if you'd get out of my room. I don't want to deal with you right now…"

Seto stomped over to Mokuba and grabbed his shirt, "Excuse me? Who—"

Mokuba replied, "You're excused, now leave."

Seto raised his hand but before he had a chance to hit Mokuba, Isono came in and stopped them both, "Please Kaiba-sama, Mokuba-sama. I don't want you two to fight!"

Seto glared at Mokuba bed then he left with Isono.

Mokuba watched them both leave, Seto slammed the door.

The boy fell back on his bed and looked up at the ceiling, 'So far this day is going on normally…' he got out of bed and went on his balcony, "Soon, they'll all forget about me. They won't notice me anymore then there just going to toss me aside and let me rot in this cruel world with no form of survival available." Mokuba rested his head, "The night's still young. I can do something fun."

Mokuba got out of his room, when he was in the hallway, Seto walked up to Mokuba, "Mokuba, where do you think you're going?"

Mokuba smirked, "Out. That's all you need to know." Seto grabbed Mokuba's arm before he left, "Mokuba…"

The young Kaiba's face grimaced, 'Why's Seto acting so protective?' Mokuba pushed Seto then ran out of the manor.

"Ah, Mokuba, wait!!"

Too late, Mokuba already ran out of that door. After a while of non-stop running, Mokuba stopped when he reached Voyage Avenue where he was just walking and thinking. Another good thing about being there was that no one was there.

Mokuba was looked down as he walked, 'I do feel a little guilty for hurting Isono…I…I think I should apologize but…' the raven haired boy sighed, 'I just can't bring myself to do it not in front of Niisama. It'll change everything. The order of things will—'

Before Mokuba could finish his thought, there was a horn honking. Mokuba turned and his eyes widened as he screamed when he saw the car that was about to run him over. Mokuba closed his eyes but after a few seconds—when he realized that he wasn't bleeding or injured at all—he opened his eyes and saw that a pair of arms surrounded him protectively.

Mokuba had a blush on his face which was highly recognizable. The teen who saved him scanned him to make sure he was alright, "You okay kid?"

Mokuba's blush deepened for a reason he didn't understand.

When the younger Kaiba didn't reply, the teen put the back of his hand on Mokuba's forehead, "You don't have a fever so why are you red?"

Mokuba pushed the teen away from him, "Why you did…why did you save me!?"

The teen didn't listen, "That bastard, he didn't even stop and apologize to you."

Mokuba growled, "Answer me!"

The teen turned to Mokuba, "Oh yeah, you said something about why I saved you, right? Well, I wasn't going to let you die if I could prevent it! Anyways, shouldn't you be thanking me?"

Mokuba scowled, he didn't face the teen, "I didn't ask for any help…"

The teen shrugged, "Whatever. I did my part."

Mokuba looked at the ground when he asked, "What's your name?"

The teen stopped, he turned his head slightly and smiled, "Jounouchi Katsuya." Then he left.

XxX+XxX

Eeeh, this story didn't turn out exactly how I planned…=A=

Anyway, I know Mokuba was incredibly OOC (like I said in the warning) but god, I hope he wasn't that OOC…O.o

Also, this is my FIRST JounouchiXMokuba fanfic so if you're going to review (which I hope you do) be constructive………
