A/N: I know I said to a couple people, namely Man with Imagination and Kaiye that I would be updating sooner than you think but I was studying for a history midterm, writing a legacy paper for history and I basically was trying to figure out how to formulate the scene, at this point I still can't figure out what other stuff I want to happen, so I'll just wing it because I think you guys (all my readers and reviewers) have waited long enough.
Flash backs are in italics.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! Only the plot of this story.
On to the story! =) (Smiley face).

Chapter 4
Reminiscing Part 3
When Kisara climbed into the limo she was a bit shocked at the huge space. Truth be told she had never been inside a limo before. She looked around and took in her surroundings, the spacious black leather seats, the mini bar, the infamous limo phone she'd seen so many times in movies, her mind trailed off.
Kisara are you okay? Kaiba queried, staring at her and she seemed to be in another world.
"I'm fine, I'm just taking in my surroundings; I've never been in a limo before". Kisara replied.
"You've never been in a limo before?" Kaiba asked astonished at this new bit of information.
"We'll excuse me! The last time I checked my best friend wasn't the richest guy in the country. He was just a normal kid." Kisara exclaimed.
"Normal?" Kaiba queried. I wouldn't say I was normal, but anyways."
"Where are we going?" Kisara was sitting next to Kaiba.
"To Kaiba Land". I have work to do."
Kisara sighed, "I wanted to go to the park, I have something to tell you, and I need a bit of privacy, give me an hour of your time."
Kaiba looked into Kisara's eyes and saw that she was serious about it being private, so he told the driver to drop them off at the park instead. "Charles, I've changed my mind, drop us off at the park." He said in a firm tone.
"Yes sir". Charles drove to the park and stopped to open the door for Kaiba and Kisara, and then he drove away as per Kaiba's instructions to park the limo and wait for them.
Kaiba noticed an empty bench and motioned for Kisara to take a seat and she did just that.
"Now what is it that you wanna talk about that is so private?" Kaiba asked.
"My life", Kisara paused to find the correct words as what she was about to tell Kaiba was a really hard thing for her to do. She took a deep breath and exhaled. Kaiba stared at her keenly.
Kisara began, "Just before my dad and I left New York, my mom and I…" Kisara trailed off and tears began to well up in her eyes. Kaiba saw that this was really hard for her, so he reached out and took her hand in his and looked at her with a reassuring smile, as if saying "Kisara, whatever it is, you can tell me". She took this as a sign and continued. "My mom and I were kidnapped and held captive for several hours by an escaped convict and…". Kisara's lips began to tremble and tears continued to stream down her face. "He took a gun and pointed it at me and my mom begged him not to shoot me.
~flashback begin~
"Please don't shoot my daughter". A tear stricken Keiko pleaded with the kidnapper. She began to shudder as the kidnapper put his hand down her shirt and began to fondle her breasts. She gasped and then turned her head away in shame. "What do you want with us?" She then asked.
"I don't want anything to do with your daughter", the masked man began to explain, "Just you". When he spoke Keiko recognised his voice as that belonging to Tenchi Abarai , the most recent criminal she'd put away as the fairly recent prosecutor of the State of New York.
"Well then what do you want with me? She queried with whatever courage she could muster.
"To kill you." Tenchi lifted the gun and aimed it at her head but then he looked over at the horrified look on Kisara's face, so he then decided he'd have a little fun. He then crossed the room and stood in front of Kisara. She looked up at him with her tear stricken face and felt her heart beat bellowing throughout her body. He then returned the gun to the back of his pant, in the waistband and extended his arm to wipe the tears away from her face. Kisara shied away but stared at the floor making sure not to give eye contact. He then began to unbutton Kisara's blazer and she shrieked with horror and so did her mother.
"Please leave my daughter out of this". Keiko pleaded but Tenchi turned, grabbed the gun from the back of his pant waist and pointed it straight at her.
"If you don't shut the hell up, you won't last long, I'll make sure of that". He then turned back to Kisara and replaced the gun in the back of pant waist and stared at Kisara. "Now where were we"? He queried. "Ah yes". He then finished unbuttoning her blazer and proceeded to unbuttoning her cotton top. Keiko wandered what to do, because if she opened her mouth once more, Tenchi would not hesitate to shoot her in front of her daughter. She began to think.
At this time Tenchi was finished unbuttoning Kisara's shirt and stared at her lacy black bra. He then proceeded to grope her and she shrieked in horror and began to cry again. Keiko decided there was nothing that she could do to save the two of them and there was no point in trying.
"Kisara, mommy loves and she always will'. Keiko tooked a deep breath and looked at her daughter one last time. "Tenchi stop groping my daughter! I have had enough of this. What is it that you want with me?" Keiko stared at him with determination in her eyes.
Tenchi stopped groping Kisara and turned to look at Keiko. "What is it, I want with you?" I want you dead! You are responsible for my incarceration and my brother's execution and you will pay." He walked across the room and pointed his pistol smack dab in the middle of Keiko's forehead. "You will pay… with your life." More tears began to stream down Kisara's face. As she stared into her mother's eyes from across the room where she was tied to a wooden chair, all she heard was POW! And her mother was dead from a single gunshot wound to the head at close range. Kisara began to tremble and stared straight into Tenchi's eyes and his brown ones only stared back into her blue ones and then he left her in the room with her mother's dead body tied to a wooden chair across from her on the opposite side of the room. Before Keiko died, her entire life flashed before her in milliseconds, her most precious moments were her wedding to Kisara's father Ichigo and Kisara's birth and then she was gone.
~Flashback end~
Recalling what happened to her and her mother exactly a year ago today made Kisara shudder.
"It was exactly one year ago today." Kisara said and then looked down at the grass beneath their feet.
Kaiba looked down at Kisara and took her into his arms and held her tightly. "It's okay Kisara, you're okay." He rubbed her back just to make her feel better. Kisara began to cry. "I'm really sorry about your mom." Kaiba genuinely felt sorry, because Kisara's mom was his second mother. He began to recall all his interactions with Keiko. Back in those days, even though his mother was dead he was a happy kid. His dad was a single parent with two young boys who had recently lost his wife when she had given birth to Mokuba, who was now a one year old. Even though he was saddened by the information he had learned from Kisara, a small smile crept across his face when he reminisced. He was happy back then.
Kaiba looked down at Kisara who was now asleep in his arms. He moved slightly and slid his hand in his right pant pocket for his cell phone. He called Charles and ordered him to bring the limo around so that he could take Kisara home. Charles brought the limo around and parked adjacent to the park bench Kaiba and Kisara were sitting on. Kaiba noticed that Charles had arrived, so he lifted Kisara's sleeping form into his arms and carried her to the limo. Charles opened the door, Kaiba slid in the limo with Kisara in his arms and then Charles closed the door behind him, walked around to the driver's side, got in and drove to the Kaiba mansion as instructed, because Kaiba realised that in all his conversations with Kisara during the day, she'd never said where she lived. Kaiba loved the feeling of Kisara in his arms; it made him feel at peace.
Charles, pulled up to the front door of the Kaiba mansion, got out and opened the door for Kaiba. When he looked inside Kaiba was asleep with Kisara in his arms, he had nodded off on their drive home.
Charles smiled at what he saw, "Mr. Kaiba, we have arrived." Kaiba heard a familiar voice and opened his eyes; he did blink a few times to gain his composure. He then realised what was going on; they had arrived home, and he held Kisara's sleeping form as he slid out of the limo, walked up the steps to the front door, where Gladys, one of the maids, held the door open as he walked inside. She smiled as he passed by and went upstairs to a guest room. He then remembered that he never called in advance to tell any of the maids to set up one of the guest rooms, so none of them would be ready, so he decided to go to his room. He laid Kisara on the bed, covered her with a blanket and went downstairs.
A/N: Well that's it for chapter 4. I don't think I can include anymore without giving anything else away for other chapters. I hoped you enjoyed this chapter. Stay tuned. I think I'm out of my procrastination funk and will begin working on Chapter 5 tomorrow. I wrote this entire chapter in one night. I'm actually proud of myself. Please review, and don't hesitate to give constructive criticism.
Bye! Until next chapter
