Kaiba walked into the kitchen to find Monica sitting with a cup of coffee and waiting for his return.

"How did she do today?" he asked.

"She had an attack at the very first store. That is why her friends were here today, Mokuba had them pick out some clothes for her." Monica replied, "But I have something much more important to talk about." Kaiba nodded and waited. She continued, "As I suspected those pills Timberland gave to her weren't what they were supposed to be."

Kaiba's hands tightened into fists and he said with a sadistic smile, "Well then, I suppose we will be having an extra guest for dinner tonight." He then picked up the phone to invite one additional guest to his table.

Anzu walked into the kitchen and almost fainted with shock. Kaiba and Timberland were sitting on opposite sides of the table. She grabbed onto the doorframe to support herself. 'Oh god, he is going to send me back,' she thought to herself.

Kaiba stood up and walked over to her, he whispered, "You have nothing to worry about," before helping her to the chair next to him. He then asked Timberland, "So Timberland, how are your stocks doing?"

Timberland looked mildly surprised by his question, he was expecting Kaiba to ask him to take Anzu back. Despite the surprise he answered, "My stocks are growing constantly thanks to our partnership. Your inventions are a great support to my industry."

Kaiba nodded and noticed Anzu's hands shaking in fear. Mokuba and Dr. Monica walked in at that moment so Kaiba quickly introduced Dr. Monica to Timberland.

Kaiba then continued, "The reason I called you here today is Dr. Monica made some discoveries pertaining to Anzu's illness. Since she was living with you so long, it would only be fair that you know."

Anzu's hands started to shake more violently under the table. Kaiba couldn't take seeing her like this anymore, so he took his hand and placed it on top of hers under the table. She turned her head towards him and was shocked when she saw concern in his eyes. She took a deep breath and listened to what Monica had to say.

Monica pulled the pills out of her briefcase and asked, "Mr. Timberland, when Anzu came to us, she handed me this bottle of pills. I wanted to know, do you know what these pills are made of."

Timberland smiled and answered, "Sugar."

Anzu sucked in a deep breath at his answer and stood up, "Sugar? You made my life living hell for two years and you were giving me sugar pills?" Her breathing started to become uneven and black spots started to cloud her vision.

Kaiba stood up and handed her his handkerchief. He picked her up and carried her to the couch in the next room to rest. He walked back in the kitchen and said loud enough for Anzu to hear as well, "The reason I called you hear Timberland was because, I know what you did that girl, but I want to know why?"

Timberland smiled and replied, "She was an easy target. Anzu is beautiful, young, naive, and scared. Those things combined made her easy to deceive."

Kaiba then said, "Well, in case it wasn't already perfectly obvious, she will not be returning to your…care anytime soon. Also, I wanted to tell you that I no longer own stock in your company. So, you will no longer be receiving blueprints from my company."

Timberland stood up in anger, "What?!"

Kaiba smirked and replied, "Your new business partner is a man named Joey Wheeler… Good Luck."

Kaiba walked into the living room to check on Anzu. She still looked scared, but her hands stopped shaking. Timberland stormed out the door right after Kaiba's announcement. But before he left he said, "Gozaburo should have killed you when he had the chance." The door slammed and he was gone.

Kaiba sat in his office looking at an old photograph. The picture was of Mokuba, Téa, and him eating ice cream. It was one of the few pictures that he had as a child. Roland had taken it and given it to him when he was freed from Gozaburo's tyranny.

Kaiba observed the photograph close, every detail of Téa's face matched Anzu's, so why didn't she remember anything? Kaiba heard a knock on his office door. He turned around in his desk chair and saw Anzu standing in the doorway. She approached him with a plate of cookies and milk, and said, "Mokuba asked for a snack, so I thought you might want one as well."

Kaiba wasn't going to say anything to her, but at the last minute he changed his mind, "Anzu, is there anything that you remember from your childhood?"

Anzu turned to face him and said, "I remember the fire and…"

"And what?" Kaiba asked.

Instead of answering his question, she asked, "Is Gozaburo still alive?"

Kaiba stood up and approached her, she was starting to shake, and he didn't want her to have another coughing episode. "No Anzu, he died a year or two after the fire… You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, but did he do something to you?" Kaiba held onto both of her arms and looked her straight in the eyes as he waited for her answer.

Anzu couldn't take his intense gaze so she looked away and shakily answered, "He is the one who forced me to change my name. He sold me to a family and said that if I ever revealed my true identity to anyone, he would kill me…Now, it has been so long since I have been Téa, I can barely remember anything about my life before. I don't remember my parents or my friends… I don't even know my last name."

"Gardener," Kaiba answered, "Your last name was Gardener."

Téa's eyes opened wide in surprise, "How do you know that?"

Kaiba handed her the photograph and said, "When we were kids, you lived next door. When Gozaburo was away of business, Mokuba and I would sneak away from our caregivers to play with you by your house. Those few short days were some of the happiest days from our childhood." Kaiba then handed her the photograph.

"This is me?" Anzu asked in surprise.

Her breathing got heavy and Kaiba knew that they needed to stop tonight. Kaiba looked away from her as if he was avoiding her, "We can talk about this more tomorrow. You should get some sleep."

Anzu nodded and started to leave, but before she left completely, she turned back around and said, "Thank you, Kaiba." Kaiba grunted and she left the room.

The next day, Anzu didn't come down for breakfast, so Kaiba walked upstairs to check on her before he left for work. He found her on the floor, running her hand underneath the bed. "What are you doing?" Kaiba asked.

Anzu sat up and explained, "My necklace is missing. I was checking to see if it maybe fell off me last night."

Kaiba looked at his watch and saw that he had a few minutes to help her look. So, he started to shake out the blankets on top of the bed. When it wasn't mixed in the bedsheets, he walked into the adjoining bathroom and looked around. He saw something glittering in the shower. He walked over and picked up the necklace. The chain was broken, but the charm was still attached. Kaiba picked it up, put it in his pocket and said, "I have to go Anzu, but you should take it easy. I am sure it will show up."

During his lunch break Kaiba stopped at a local jeweler and picked up a chain to replace the one that was broke. He had the charm polished as well while he was there. When he got back to his office, he looked at the locket on its chain. It sparkled just as brilliantly as it did when it was new. He smiled and placed the necklace back in his pocket…

Kaiba flipped open his laptop to find an email from Timberland, he opened the email with a smirk on his face and read, 'You traded 40% of my company for a cup of coffee?!'Kaiba started to laugh and thought to himself, 'I wonder how much he paid wheeler to get it back.'

Later that day, Kaiba came home to find Anzu asleep in a rocking chair on the gazebo. Mokuba was sitting next to her reading a story from his textbook. Kaiba quietly approached the two and asked Mokuba, "How has she been doing today?"

Mokuba frowned and replied, "She has been searching the house for her locket all day. Have you seen it?"

Kaiba pulled it out of his pocket and said, "The chain broke."

"Why didn't you tell her? She has been running herself ragged, not that it takes much… But still you should have said something Seto," Mokuba quietly scolded him.

Kaiba walked behind her and very gently hooked the necklace on her neck before saying, "I didn't want her to know..."

"Didn't want her to know that it broke or didn't want her to know that you care?" Mokuba questioned.

Kaiba made an irritated look and said, "I don't need to explain myself to you," before going inside.

Anzu woke up about a half hour later and asked Mokuba, "How's your homework coming?"

Mokuba replied, "Fine, but I am about to start working on my math."

Anzu nodded and said, "Lets go sit at the kitchen table then, so I can help you."

To her surprise, when she walked into the kitchen she saw Kaiba standing at the stove. "You know how to cook Kaiba?" she asked curiously.

Kaiba grunted in response.

Mokuba then explained, "Margaret called in sick, and Seto hates take out. It's not poisonous, I promise."

"Yours might be, Mokuba," he replied with a smirk. Out of habit, she reached up to her neck for her necklace, and was surprised to see that it was on her. "My God, I must be losing it. My necklace was on me this whole time Mokuba." She looked closer at it and wondered, 'Why does it look different?' She shook her head, figuring it was a figment of her imagination and said, "That's weird, it looks shinier all of a sudden."

"You're imagining things. It looks exactly the same as it always has," Kaiba said.

Anzu shrugged her shoulders and sat at the table with Mokuba. Kaiba turned back to cooking and smiled to himself. After all these years he had been searching for her, and she was right under his nose. He then thought about how he treated her in high school and frowned. If he would have known who she was back then, things could have been different. 'She definitely doesn't trust me, but she does trust Mokuba. I can use that to my advantage,' he thought to himself.
