Unwanted Memories
: At Kaiba Corp.:
"Arrrrrgh! How could I let myself lose to Yugi again? It's not fair!" Kaiba yelled as he hit his desk hard with his fist.
It was the night after Anubus was destroyed and Seto Kaiba had once again lost to Yugi Motou. Kaiba would have won if Anubus hadn't shown up, but as usual, Kaiba was punishing himself.
"Every time I lose I keep having to be reminded about it! No matter how hard I try to bury my memories of the past, that one refuses to go AWAY!" He roughly scratched his head in frustration.
Outside Kaiba's office, Mokuba heard his big brother punishing himself because he lost to Yugi. Then again, he also knew perfectly well what the second thing bothering him. It was a memory that haunted his brother and himself but not nearly as bad.
It was the event that happened years ago at the orphanage when he was 6 and Seto was 12. It had to be the worst day of their lives. When their loved sister died.
: Flashback:
It was about 11:30 at night. Seto had gone missing, so Mokuba and his older sister went looking for him. Seto returned after 12:00 o'clock after Mokuba had cried himself to sleep. Their sister didn't ask Seto where he went because she already knew. It was his favorite spot by the cliff.
It was a beautiful spot. There was a waterfall going over the cliff which was surrounded by trees, at night you could see and hear bats, the stars are clear and there's a big rock right beside the edge of the cliff.
Anyway their sister and Mokuba followed Seto the next night. He was surprised to see them there but, he figured it out. They all sat there talking with not a care in the world.
After about an hour they were going to head back, but, before they could even move away from the rock they heard a loud growl. They looked through the trees and saw two yellow eyes staring at them. They stood there, not moving a muscle when the creature crept out of the bushes. It was a panther! It's black fur glistened in the moon light as it walked back and forth, never taking its eyes of its pray.
Mokuba ducked behind his brother but he shouldn't have done that. The sudden movement acted as a trigger for the panthers strike. Their sister dived right and Seto grabbed Mokuba and jumped to the left.
After a few moments of dodging it finally clawed Seto on his right leg. Mokuba ran to his side. The panther leapt for them and they didn't have time to dodge. Seto covered Mokuba protectively; positive he was going to die, but make sure Mokuba did not. Unfortunately at that moment their sister sprinted forward and shoved them out of the way.
The panther hit her head on and hurtled them both over the cliff. Seto tried to catch her but he wasn't fast enough. The only thing he caught was her bracelet. Once her scream died away Seto yelled out her name as one teardrop fell from his face.
: End Flashback:
After the incident the two of them got transferred to a different orphanage, this one being the one where they met Gozaburo. Mokuba knows that Seto still has the bracelet. He kept it as a reminder of their lost sibling. Every night Mokuba was in bed he'd dream about her, but, it always ended in a nightmare. Every time, he awoke with a start, wishing his sister would come back. Not for himself, but for Seto.
" If only you were alive, maybe Seto would go back to the way he was, before our step father showed up." Mokuba whispered to himself.
Mokuba then walked on and got his mind back on track to what he was doing, trying to forget about Gozaburo.
