Relatively short story, I think, with a few chapters. I am going to finish this story D: D:. Don't worry, I am still working on Thief's Knowledge! This story idea has been itching me since I began Thief's Knowledge, actually, haha XD
Summary: Bakura tries to get past Kaiba's many layers of security in order to get the "golden egg" so to speak. Action/comedy.
Chapter 1
Kaiba Corporations is known throughout the world as the company that makes the best duel disks and the best Duel Monsters' related merchandise. It used to be known for its advanced weaponry, supplying anyone given the proper amount of cash, but when the second generation took over, he, taking over as a young adult, naturally converted the company's products to children's toys. Though the company is known for producing fun, light-hearted products, the CEO is known for his extreme lack of young childishness. He is, in fact, known for being severely strict though not cruel. And extremely logical. Thus, instead of hiring many bodyguards that would need his complete trust and access to many high-level areas, he has constructed and is continually upgrading a completely automated defense system. Such a system is supposed to prevent any harm from coming to him. Seto Kaiba, CEO of the most successful company in the world, tests his self-defense system at his house.
Bakura walked down the street, peering into windows while picking passerby's pockets. He whistled a shrill, nonsensical tune while he was at it, and one could see the glass windows begin to rattle in response. He continued down the street for some ways before finally ducking into an alley. Dumping his goods onto a rotting crate, he quickly counted the cash, pocketed it, and searched for anything else that might be worthwhile and valuable. He then stashed the remains into the box and, while whistling, made his way through town on the main road. Domino City was not a small city, but it was surprisingly difficult to travel anywhere without an automatic method of transportation. Bakura hated this but continued strolling along until he reached Kaiba's hill – a hill upon which the Kaiba mansion rested. He had time, after all, and it was at least relatively good exercise to keep his body in shape.
He gazed up at the mansion. He had never attempted to approach the mansion, but he was feeling particularly pissed because his earlier bounty had been disappointing. Deciding on a whim to see how far he could get, he hopped over the fence. Or attempted to. Instead of successfully crossing the gate like he expected to, Bakura was electrocuted, and he sat down hard on the concrete. He cursed under his breath. Of course it wouldn't be possible to reach the mansion without proper preparation and reconnaissance. With nothing better to do, Bakura made it his goal to reach the mansion and take a peek around. There was bound to be a lot of things worth stealing in Kaiba's house. After hiking around the perimeter of the hill to get a feel for the different possible routes he could take, Bakura jogged back home.
Ryou still wasn't home when he arrived, so Bakura was forced to make himself some food. Being a guy that was used to buying cheap street food was not helpful when it came to preparing food for himself. Throwing together what could passably be called a sandwich, he went into Ryou's room and hopped onto the internet. As he was browsing for some tools of the trade, Ryou returned. Quickly, so as not to arouse suspicion, Bakura cleared his history and left the computer back in its original state before going to meet Ryou. Ryou looked exhausted, so Bakura, feeling a bit happy after having found a project, decided to throw another sandwich together for Ryou. While Ryou was eating, Bakura took the time to question him on the usage of libraries and Kaiba's past security measures. Ryou, surprised Bakura was asking him nicely, said, "You need to get a library card so that you can check out a certain number of books per week. You have to return the books or renew them by the end of the week, and if you don't you are fined. You also can't damage the books or else you will be fined. Different libraries have different limits for the number of books you can check out. As for Kaiba's past security measures, they varied immensely, ranging from a single Russian bodyguard to having an electric field generator that somehow did not affect him. I don't really know any specifics though. You could probably find out at the library? Why are you interested in his security?"
"It's none of your business," Bakura gruffly replied. He gave a single nod of thanks for the information and left. After Bakura left, Ryou continue eating his sandwich. There was no point in prying into Bakura's business unless he wanted to suffer in the process.
Aaaand that is all for now! Probably not such a great intro to pique anyone's interest, but oh wells! It's weird. I've had a much clearer idea of how I wanted this story to flow than anything else I've ever written for fun, and it is so much more difficult to write! It's like…the more of an idea I have, the higher expectations I have for it to flow a certain way? Which results in me not actually writing anything I want to? WEIRDNESS. Anyhow, R&R, or, not, since there isn't much to review XD.
