(A/N: Thanks for those reviews! I'll respond at the end of this chapter! You guys inspired me for this chapter so I hope you enjoy it!)
"In an enchanted land, ironically existing only in people's dreams…"
"Big brother you promised a dragon, and a princess and a prince!"
"Those stories get old fast, kind of like outlived duelists"
"But I do get another story right?" the little one asked so innocently.
"Alright, Alright!" replied Seto giving into those cute puppy dog eyes.
"Once upon a time there lived a poor woodcutter and his nagging wife. The woodcutter has two children from a previous marriage, and the step-mother couldn't stand the troublesome mutt…errr…Joey and his sister. What's her name again? You know the one I'm talking about, right?"
"Serenity?"
"Yes, that's the one. So, this happy little family was running out food. Imagine that! With Wheeler around no wonder there was little food."
"That's enough Big Brother!"
"I suppose. For now."
"Well the step-mother was not impressed with this. I mean this woman was clearly in the wrong home if she needed food and warmth. So she sweet-talked her husband into abandoning his children in this forest that was conveniently right in their backyard. Since the children were highly disobedient children and eavesdropping on the entire conversation, they made a plan to try and find a way back. Wheeler went outside, and picked up some shiny pebbles. He filled his pockets and then went back to sleep, where he snored profusely and woke the house up at dawn.
It was still damp from the frost when the woodcutter took his children deep into the woods. So deep that there was no hope of following the same twisted and warped trail back to the house. It was at this point that the woodcutter built a fire and gathered the courage to leave, claiming to return for the children when he was finished his work. As the children waited, day turned to dusk, and dusk turned to dark. Thankfully there was a full moon, so the children could see a little bit. For some reason, Wheeler was too distracted by the walk to do two things at once, and failed to drop the pebbles he had picked up the night before."
"That's not very nice Seto."
"No, but it is true Mokuba. Have you seen the guy try to walk and talk before? Multi-tasking is clearly not for the brainless of this world."
"So being a typical little girl, Serenity began to sob bitterly because she was homesick, even though they were only gone for one day at this point. Sad, isn't it? So at this point, Wheeler finally gathered the courage to take his sister's hand and wandered through the forest seeking some kind of a path to get them home. After a couple hours, they realized they were walking in circles and Serenity took the lead. On they walked till they suddenly came across a strange cottage. It looked just like a gingerbread house…"
"This sure is some good gingerbread," Joey interrupted, though you could barely hear him since his mouth was full.
"This is my story Wheeler. Get your own." Seto responded coldly.
"At this moment, an old woman opened the door and gasped in horror! "You're eating my house you nasty children!" she exclaimed. "I challenge you to a duel!" She led them inside to a table set up with a miniature dueling system on it. As Wheeler prepared his sad excuse for a deck, and the witch preparing hers, a light clicked on in Serenity Wheeler's head. While the two were distracted she slipped back into the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water. Ever so slowly she returned and quickly removed the plug that was connected to the dueling system. With that done, she dripped water on to the plug that was attached to the wall. A clever girl, despite the fact she's a Wheeler. She brought the problem of the unplugged dueling system to the witch, who tried to plug the wires back together. A large electrical zap and with a bright flash of light, the witch vanished."
"You mean she got electrocuted and died?"
"No, I mean she vanished. Like poof into thin air and such."
"She died..."
Seto shrugged. "Believe what you want, but I was trying to lighten the mood. Get it? Lighten?" He began to smirk.
Mokuba rolled his eyes. "So then what happened?"
"Well I imagine it was a happy ending and such."
Mokuba glared...
"Alright, Alright! Joey and Serenity hugged in happiness and skipped merrily out of the house and down the path. From there they found a bridge which lead to an opening in the forest and right into the backyard of their house. They rushed inside, and they all lived happily ever after…well except that step-mother. Poor old girl, I was kind of starting to like her."
"That's gross! You can't like a witch!"
"I don't see why not Mokuba. Witches make excellent and cheap receptionists."
Mokuba shook his head in laughter. "I suppose they do, but you still promised me a story with a prince and a dragon."
Seto sighed in defeat. This was certainly going to be a long, long night.
