More than a Weapon
Summary: Joey Wheeler escaped from a secret organization in the USA to Domino, Japan and resumed a life as Katsuya Jounouchi, but is still being pursued. What will Seto Kaiba do once he is asked to take down his long time crush and rival? S/J, maybe Anzu/Yugi
Chapter 1-2 years later: Domino, Japan-
"So Yug', wanna go to the arcade today?" asked Katsuya Jounouchi, commonly known throughout the school as 'Jou'.
"Sure Jou, but don't you have detention today?" responded Yugi. Secretly he didn't want to go to the arcade, not because he hated Jou or anything, far from it, they are best friends after all, but because he wanted to go to the mall with his secret crush Anzu.
"Aww… Yug', you sure know how to spoil my fun and acts of delinquency" teased Jou "Besides I'm sure that you want to hang out with Anzu today" he finished off with a wink.
"Whaa-aat?" Yugi stuttered out as his cheeks darkened a bright pink upon his pale skin.
"It's okay Yug', I really should start serving those detentions. Off I go then!" cheered Jou, thrusting his fist into the air, but instead of hitting air like he was supposed to he felt his fist slam into something hard and warm.
Yugi just stood there shocked and unresponsive, which did little to calm down Jou's increasing nerves. He gulped as he slowly turned his head to look at the person behind him, arm still raised into the 'air'.
Who he saw did nothing to brighten his day. Out of all the people in the world it had to be Seto-fucking-Kaiba, teenage heart throb and cold hearted CEO of KaibaCorp. Kaiba's ice blue eyes were glaring daggers at Jou, which in turn made Jou's blood run cold.
Nothing really seemed to be going his way today. He forgot his math homework so that got him another detention to add to the list, Anzu got mad at him for the lude jokes he and Honda were teaching Yugi that she had grabbed both their food trays and just dumped them into the trash, Yugi didn't want to go to the arcade and now this.
Jou let out a nervous chuckle as he slowly lowered his fist. Before he had time to fully lower his arm he found himself sprawled on the floor, his cheek throbbing painfully in a fierce sting. Apparently as Jou was lowering his wrist Kaiba had taken a hold of his wrist in a strong grip and with his other hand delivered a fast and hard punch to Jou's face.
Jou quickly recovered (being used to this sort of thing for the hundreds of fights him and Honda had been in) and stood up, honey-hazel eyes blazing fiery with immeasurable hatred. His beautiful eyes now squinted in a sharp glare almost as good as the one patented by Seto Kaiba himself.
"Why the fuck you gotta punch me for, asshole!?" yelled Jou, his anger slowly building up. The punch dealt by Kaiba still hurt badly, but pride wouldn't let him show it, no matter how much he wanted to get an ice pack on it.
"I'll have to agree with Jou on this one, Kaiba, that was completely uncalled for" said Yugi in a quiet voice, clutching onto Jou's uniform jacket in hopes of preventing an all out brawl. Kaiba didn't bother to respond and just sent Yugi a sneer.
"The mutt hit me first, I was just returning the favor" replied Kaiba smoothly, ignoring Yugi completely and just starring defiantly into Jou's honey eyes.
"Don't call me a 'mutt', Moneybags!" yelled Jou as he launched himself at Kaiba, unaware of Yugi holding onto him. Because of that his momentum was cut off and instead of the tackle he was hoping for, it ended up more like a tumble with Jou sprawled out atop of Kaiba with his face on his chest and very close to the base of his neck.
Both their bodies seemed to mesh together perfectly, as if meant to be. Jou blushed at the thought that both their manhoods' had touched and that he wasn't at all disgusted by it, if anything it felt good. His blush darkened as he started remembering random moments with Kaiba as its main focus; running track, slowly undressing for the showers, in the showers…
If his thoughts continued on this track he'd have a hard on that he'd rather not explain. His mantra soon became 'think un-sexy thoughts, think un-sexy thoughts…' while envisioning his wrinkled history teacher in a very revealing bikini. That mental image can just about kill any boner a guy had. Unconsciously Jou drew in a deep breath and caught the alluring scent of vanilla and cologne.
Slowly lifting his face from the nape of Kaiba's neck he met ice blue eyes. Instead of the looking cold and hard like they usually do when staring at him they held a flicker of emotion that Jou deemed as confusion. 'What's Kaiba confused about all of a sudden' he thought.
"Do you mind getting up now mutt? A dog usually jumps on his master upon arrival at home, not randomly on a school hallway" sneered Kaiba with a well-placed scowl on his face. That confusion that was earlier evident in his eyes was gone and newly hidden behind a reconstructed mask. Jou wondered if it was just his imagination that he had seen that or just a play of his mind.
Jou ignored that thought and once what Kaiba had said registered into his mind he yelled "Fucking asshole!" flinging his fist over to Kaiba's face, knowing that it would certainly bruise up his pale cheek. Kaiba yelped in pain, but gripped Jou's wrists before h could land other punch. Using his body as leverage gained by bucking his hips upward, where Jou let out a small gasp in surprise and had to bite his lip to hold in a moan, Kaiba managed to flip the over.
Yugi didn't want Jou to get hurt and he knew that he wasn't strong enough to prevent any of it falling on his best friend so he left in search of Honda. Surely he could do something.
Kaiba pinned Jou's wrists over his head and both boys glared daggers at each other's eyes. Jou wondered hoe the hell Kaiba managed to get so strong if all he did was sit in his office typing all day. 'Does the guy go to the gym every night or something?" he wondered.
"Stupid mutt, you'll pay for that one" Kaiba sneered again. Jou vaguely wished that his face would stay that way forever, seeing all the crinkles it caused his face.
He let go of one of Jou's wrists, but quickly gathered it under his other hand, immobilizing Jou once again. He lifted his right fist ready to strike his blonde rival. Jou on the other hand had other ideas. Who in their right mind would just stay there and wait for the hit to land?
The only thing he was able to do with both hands immobilized was thrash and squirm. He knew he couldn't get out of Kaiba's death grip-of-doom so he opted to try and flip them over. Throughout all his thrashing he managed nothing except slamming his hips into Kaibas' repeatedly.
"Stay still you dumbass!" Kaiba yelled, unable to get in a good shot at Jou's face with Jou squirming like that. Their hips slamming into one another did nothing to increase his concentration. Kaiba began to feel his blood slowly leaving his brain and travel rapidly downward onto other organs.
Jou still kept on thrashing and Kaiba had to bite the inside of his cheek in order to hold back a moan. A sheet of sweat began to form on his forehead as he was maintaining the pressure on Jous' hands and trying not to slam his hips back into Jou and create a rhythm.
Kaiba was unconsciously adding more pressure onto Jous' hand, causing him to cry out. Kaiba loosened his grip a bit and was about to apologize automatically, but before he could utter a single word an unseen force had thrown his body to the side. As he lifted his head from the ground he saw that it was that Honda guy with the shark-fin hair cut, glaring holes into his skull while that midget Yugi was helping the mutt to his feet and looking over him like a mother hen. Kaiba stood up quickly with finesse and elegancy with a sneer on his face already, like on default.
"Leave Jou alone, Kaiba!" Honda yelled, but with a shaky voice.
Kaiba took pride in being able to cause such a lack of confidence and flashed a smirk at the pathetic trios location. Jou had finally recovered and escaped Yugi's clutches of friendship. For some reason he was no longer that mad at Kaiba. He had seen that brief look of regret on Kaiba's face when he had applied to much pressure on his wrists and noticed he was about to apologize too, had Honda not shown up. He could almost beat up Honda instead for that one. Not everyday he'd get an apology from the rich bastard.
"Hn. Whatever, I have no time to hang around here with you losers" said Kaiba in a cold tone and with glaring eyes as he picked up his steel suitcase where it had fallen to the floor when Jou had first punched him and proceeded to walk outside of the school.
Once Kaiba was out of sight Yugi began to fuss over his wounds again, more specifically the bruise that was already forming on Jou's cheek, turning an ugly shade of blue and purple.
"Hey man, are you alright?" asked Honda. Ever since he met Jou two years ago he'd believed for some reason that he had to protect Jou from everything, despite Jou being able to care for himself.
"Yeh, I'm cool" replied Jou in that Brooklyn accent he's known for (along with that striking golden mop of hair), reassuring the other two boys. "Thanks a lot guys" he said as he began to slowly walk down the hallway, opposite of the exit. "I should head to detention now, before it starts."
"But Jou, you're hurt" cried Yugi.
"Yeah man, juts take the day off, serve two tomorrow" said Honda in that 'listen to me I'm your big brother' voice.
"I really appreciate that guys" began Jou "but tomorrow's Friday, so I'd rather not stay after school then," as he waved off his friends and making a beeline to the detention room. "Oh, and have fun on your date with Anzu, Yugi!" yelled Jou teasingly.
"Jou!" exclaimed Yugi "not so loud" he whispered with a hint of urgency, glancing around the hall suspiciously and hoping that no one had heard them.
The last thing Jou heard before closing the door of the detention room was Honda teasing Yugi, all the while Yugi was pleading to Honda to stop. Jou just chuckled and made his way over to his desk.
A/N: Okay, here's chapter one (finally). Just FYI this fic probably won't be updated regularly, but I'll try my best. I want to thank everyone who read this story and especially to my reviewers: pennypigeon, Light Bearer Lucifer, Ryou-la-lune, and dragonlady222. Keep reading! By request I guess maybe Yugi and Anzu won't be together…lemme know what you think. They aren't a major part of the story though…meh.
