Bella jerked awake from her dream. The flashbacks had haunted her for the past 12 years. As many times as she had attempted to find out about Seto and Mokuba's whereabouts, she hadn't been able to find an answer. Many times she had thoughts of giving up thinking perhaps they just never made it out of the shipwreck. But these were the first people to ever care for Bella, and she had never found such close friends again. She would not give up. It was the least she could do for the kind brothers.

Walking towards her laptop, Bella didn't know what else she could do. In thoughts of giving up, she sarcastically thought about searching up 'Seto and Mokuba' on the internet. As if that would work. However, running out of ideas, she surprised herself by doing exactly that. And she was shocked to find over 10 trillion hits! She hit image results and her hopes were higher than ever. 'Could it be them?' she thought to herself. A brown haired young man stood tall to about what she estimated to be slightly over 6 feet. His blue eyes glared at the photo, clearly not appreciating the paparazzi attention. Beside him was a teenager whose long black hair was let loose. He was smiling as he looked up at his brother, who was clearly a head or two taller than him. 'Seto and Mokuba Kaiba at the release of his latest duel disk' the caption read.

She covered her mouth in surprise and gasped in shock. Her Seto, she shook her head. She meant, the Seto she had known was the Seto Kaiba who was so famous for his innovative holographic creations pertaining to the game Duel Monsters she enjoyed so much? Sure as ever that it was him, she went to check his background and learned lots. The history began at a different orphanage from the one where she, Seto and Mokuba had been at together. 'So they must've found him', she thought to herself relieved. Gozoboro Kaiba had visited the orphanage for his publicity stunt, and was amazed with the intelligence of the boy and had decided to adopt the two brothers. Gozoboro had died a few years ago in an accident and thus Seto become the owner and CEO of Kaiba Corporation.

They were located in Domino City, where the Kaiba Corporation Headquarters was also located. Estimating the distance from here to there, she decided it was only a two hour plane ride and decided to go find Seto and Moki. A sudden thought stopped her heart momentarily; But what if they've moved on? What if they don't care about her anymore? What if they've forgotten her? She shook her head and told herself to snap out of it. Even if that was true, she wanted to make sure that they truly were okay. She had spent over half her life attempting to track them, and she wasn't going to give up now.

Ms. Adelbere, whom she considered very much to be her mother, knocked on Bella's door. "Isabella sweetheart, don't forget. Tonight is the dinner party we must attend," she said in her sweet, nanny-like voice.

"Alright mom," she called back, closing all of the windows on her computer. Ms. Adelbere was a widow. Her husband had died five years before she had found Bella, and she had never married again. The lady had a kind heart, and Bella had also learned she was quite well-known in the world. Her husband had been the owner of a huge company, and his contacts and business associates still considered Ms. Adelbere to be a part of their more business like world, seeing as how she was still overseeing production of the company. However, as much as she liked the woman, and even thought of her as a mother, Bella had never told her about Seto, or Mokuba, or the shipwreck. She didn't know why but whenever she came close to talking about them to her a nagging feeling would enter her heart.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There was a knock on his door. Typing furiously, he growled in a low and cold voice that seemed almost ominous due to his current mood.

Jin entered the room. "Master Kaiba, I was just going to inform you that you have been invited tonight to a dinner party with your associates.

"Tell them I'm busy," growled the young CEO.

"But sir, Ms. Adelbere of Adelbere Co. is going to be there."

Kaiba's eyes shot up in interest. "Prepare the limo, I'll be there in a hour."

"Yes Master Kaiba."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bella wandered aimlessly through the crowds of rich women and men, usually middle aged, who were chatting about business and whatnot. Seeing a balcony outside she went leaned against the cool cement, admiring the city lights. It was ironic how the very day she learned about Seto Kaiba's whereabouts a dinner party was held in Domino City. Far off in the distance Bella saw the enormous towering figure of Kaiba Corp. headquarters, the logo sitting at the top of the glass-walled building. She wished she didn't have to stay the entire time and could go searching for the Kaiba brothers this instant, however she had business associates to deal with. Ms. Adelbere was too old and fragile to participate in the heated discussions and arguments as people flocked to her, attacking her to make deals with them and so Isabella had thought that it was the least she could do to speak for her. She took a deep breath and went inside, finding the table where her foster mother sat.

Moments later the crowd wish had been chatting so animatedly before hushed down. Bella could just barely make out the figure of a man walking down the steps. She didn't know what the huge deal was about and busied herself by pouring her foster mother and herself some champagne. She heard the crowd begin to chatter again and just shook her head. Looking up to pass Ms. Adelbere the glass, she noticed a pair of deep blue eyes staring at her and not realizing who it was, began to blush.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kaiba's blue eyes watched the girl quietly. She seemed familiar to him somehow but he didn't quite understand how or why. He shrugged it off. "Ms. Adelbere," he began. "I was wondering if you'd like to make a business proposition," his voice was cold as ever and the business like look in his eyes made it clear he was not going to beat around the bush.

Just as Ms. Adelbere was about to speak, the brown haired girl interrupted. "I'll be speaking for Ms. Adelbere today," she said in a professional tone.

Kaiba glared at the girl. He had no intentions of dealing with anyone besides the woman Ms. Adelbere. Old as she was, he knew it wouldn't be difficult to make a deal. "And who might you be?" he asked, his tone mocking.

Matching his tone cold for cold, she replied, "Her daughter."

Fine. So he'd have to make dealings with her daughter. Minor setback. "Very well. I believe before Ms. Adelbere's husband died, he made some pieces of technological hardware-"

Just as he was about to state his business proposition, she cut in. "We're not interested."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'Who the hell was this guy to come right up and bring up Ms. Adelbere's dead husband' Bella thought furiously to herself. Before he excused himself from the table, fury in his eyes, the last thing she heard him say was, "Hmph," and stalk off.

Her foster mother was still tearing at the mention of her husband's death. "It's okay mom. It'll be alright," she kept repeating as she refilled her foster mother's champagne glass. She didn't know who that guy was or anything about him at all, but something about him made her feel strange. She stood and went to find him.

The young man was leaning over the balcony she had been at previously, looking out at Domino City. She went and stood beside him, about to give him a piece of her mind for his rudeness. But as soon as his eyes locked on her face, she forgot everything else. All she managed to let out was a surprised "S-seto..." and she fainted, slumped against him.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kaiba looked at the girl who had denied him of the business proposition before he had even stated it. No one had ever said no to Seto Kaiba. He wasn't surprised to see her faint, most girls did at the sight of him. What he was shocked about was how she had said his name before she fainted, as if she had known him all his life. 'Delusional girl' he thought to himself. She left him in an awkward position, slumped in his arms. He had never been with a woman his entire life and he wasn't about to start rumors now. By the time he glanced back in the room, most of the men and women had already left. He glanced at his watch. 1:21. He seated the girl at a table by the balcony and went in search of her mother. According to Jin who had went to ask the valet about Ms. Adelbere, she had already left -intoxicated after having had too much champagne for someone her age.

What was he supposed to do about her?

~~~~~*~~~~~~

So what do you think! Chapter two already! I suppose it's too soon to expect any reviews but please, I would appreciate any and all!

Note: When Bella was reading the boys' biography and she read that Gozoboro had been impressed with the boy and therefore had decided to adopt the brothers is obviously not true at all. Seto had defeated him in a chess game and forced Gozoboro to adopt them, wanting Mokuba to have a home. He had no clue that Gozoboro would work him tirelessly... Obviously the media is usually lies, just wanted to make it clear. :)

Also, Bella refers to Ms. Adelbere as "Mom" or her mother when speaking aloud. However as much as she is thankful to the old woman and loves her dearly, in her thoughts -knowing her history before she was adopted- she refers to her as her foster mother.
