Random talk: Sorry for the delay. College is taking up more time than I thought it would. Plus it doesn't help I'm working on other fics at the same time. Not only that, but I was trying to figure out exactly how I had this fic planed out years ago. Yes, years. This idea started at least to form three years ago.

It was noon when Mokuba decided to check up on Jonouchi. He suspected that the blond teen was still asleep since said teen hasn't been seen yet by anyone that day. It was only a few minutes ago that his older brother told him about what Tori told Jonouchi.

As he walked into Jonouchi's temporary room, Mokuba could see the laptop one of the maids set up was still on. Google was up on the screen, the words "Tori Falcon" in the search box. The raven haired kitten sighed as he tried to wake up Jonouchi.

"Hm? Mokuba?" Jonouchi asked, lifting his head a little to see Mokuba.

"If you try to search up that name, all you get is about Tori winning some dueling competitions," Mokuba informed. "Try her full name."

"Thanks for the tip. I don't think I want to read another article about her winning one more Duel Monsters tournament."

"No problem. I'll tell you it later so you can look her up. It's lunch time now."

Never before had he seen Jonouchi run so fast. It might have just been the enhancements that came with the form, but that still didn't stop Mokuba from laughing. His laughter was halted when he heard some growling from behind.

"What the hell is that mutt doing here?" the person demanded. "Better yet, why is he like that!"

"I can explain!" Mokuba shouted, too afraid to turn around.

"You better. I came down here since a little birdie told me that you and your brother are back to being cats when it wasn't even your day. I came all the way here to welcome you back to our side and this is the surprise I get! You know what; I'll just go ask Seto-chan. Keep the dog busy."

"Yes, sir!"

"Hey, Mokuba!" the two heard Jonouchi yell. "Aren't you coming or what?" Mokuba sighed as he ran out of the room. He wondered how the blond would take it if he found out he wasn't the only one who was in a gang. Difference was, Jonouchi got out of his.


Kaiba was working on the machine while his brother and Jonouchi were having lunch. His lap top detected some kind of malfunction occurring within the machine itself. After replacing a few burnt circuits, it was time to see if it would run normally once the coding was done. He had to make sure everything was perfect now that there was one more person to worry about.

He was concentrating on the task at hand that he didn't even hear the door opening. He finally realized he wasn't alone when arms wrapped around his waist. Kaiba jumped in surprise, making his guest laugh.

"Some welcome, Seto-chan," the man purred.

"Deki… What brings you here?" Kaiba muttered. This made Deki laugh even harder, his arms tightened around Kaiba's waist.

"I come by to see how you are doing and I get the third degree? Is that how you treat me now? No matter. What I want to know is why that dog upstairs and is a cat. He has no right to even consider being one!"

"One of his friends accidentally activated the machine. As soon as I get everything setup to change him back, he'll be human once more."

"Good. So, are you and Mokuba coming back?"

"No. We were actually hoping you guys would want to be human again."

"Why on earth would we want to be those fowl creatures again! At least there are some perks behind being a cat. Actually, there are more good reasons being a cat then human! Plus, it keeps you from that dog."

"How many times do I have to tell you not to call him that!"Kaiba hissed as he pushed out of Deki's grip. He turned to glare at the other cat.

"How strange… I know for a fact that you call him names to the same effect," Deki said, giving a smirk that could rival Kaiba's. Kaiba turned away in shame, knowing it was true. "You have no right to say that. I better leave. She's not here any way."

He heard Deki walk away, leaving Kaiba in the silence. Kaiba stood there not moving for a few minutes. He then started to go up the stairs to the kitchen.

"I do it because you ordered me to keep him away," Kaiba muttered.


Mokuba and Jonouchi were in the kitchen, eating lunch. Mokuba had the radio on to distract Jonouchi from hearing any sounds that might get the blonde's attention. The song currently playing was from a new band that each of the members had some kind of supernatural meaning behind their name and costume. (1)

"Hey, if you guys are cats, who gave you your name?" Jonouchi asked as he munched on some yellow tail sashimi.

"There was a boy who took care of us after our mother died," Mokuba said. "Besides naming us, he fed, played, and washed us. We were happy then."

"What happened?"

"Gozaburo came," Kaiba said as he jumped up to the table.

"Geez, Kaiba! You scared me there," Jonouchi exclaimed.

"That's nice to know. Hm… Thanks for saving me some." Jonouchi snickered at Kaiba due to the fact he and Mokuba at all of the sushi and sashimi already.

"Sorry, Nii-sama!" Mokuba said. "We didn't know if you would join us or not. Come on, Jou. I'll show you how to play Street Fighter in this form!"

Jonouchi nodded and follow the kitten to the game room. Kaiba stayed on the tabletop, watching the two leave. His expression was gentle.

"I never did get the chance to thank you for all those years ago," Kaiba whispered.

What he didn't know was that he was being watched. Deki smirked as he looked into the kitchen from outside in a near by tree. He wasn't surprised when Jonouchi didn't ever hear the doors opening and closing.

"Hm… I think it's time to re-introduce ourselves the dog," Deki said. Six eyes glowed behind him. "What do you think guys?"

(1) Um… That's a reference to another fic of mine. Had to put them in some how… Felt guilt that I haven't worked on the sequel in ages, so I decided to mention them.

Random Talk: Wow… A lot has changed from what I actually remembered what happened. For one thing, Deki is more of a bastard then I remembered. That and some scenes changed. I also give more hints for future chapters.

One thing you might notice is that this chapter wasn't edited. This may happen from time to time due to the fact that my beta is kinda busy. Thanks for understanding guys!
