Cell's grip on Mokuba wasn't that tight but Mokuba wouldn't dare try to run, he has no plan and he saw no exits.

"Well Mokuba, you're a very good boy, you didn't even try to run from me." Cell chortled but oddly stopped after 5 seconds.

His grip tightened and he picked Mokuba up by his hand, "Now Mokuba, don't try to run, it'll just get you into more trouble." Then he threw Mokuba into a room.

"Ah!" Mokuba's eyes widened when he hit the wall. He was on the floor for a second or two but then got up quickly. Cell didn't throw him hard enough to any real damage.

Mokuba stood up, with a glare in his eyes that still didn't leave, "What do you want with me!?"

Cell smiled in a happy/evil way, "Well, I originally had a plan but I don't want to continue it for now at least so I just want to talk. Now may I remind you, if you try to run, I won't hesitate to reconsider and do what I originally planned to do."

Mokuba swallowed, "Fine, I won't run as long as you don't attack me. What do you want to talk about?"

Cell started to circle Mokuba with his hands behind his back, "Join me."

Mokuba blinked, "What?"

Cell sighed the growled, "Join the Net!!"

Mokuba winced, "…Why are you asking me? No, don't answer. I will never join you. I will never betray my friends." he stood look brave.

Cell smirked, "Fine but if you join…your powers will increase—"

"What powers?" Mokuba asked, "W-what do you mean? I don't have any powers."

Cell eyes widened and he just stood there looking at Mokuba as if he was an idiot, "Y-you can't be serious…doesn't Rai teach you anything?"

Mokuba shook his head, "He didn't teach me anything…"

Cell blinked a few times but then regained his composure. He clenched his fist tighter and gritted his teeth, "Rai…h-he lead me on…Making me think…" Cell growled and glaring at Mokuba with his piercing black eyes.

There was a short silence before Cell stomped his way towards Mokuba…

Back at Kaiba Manor, Miki started to get really uncomfortable, 'This Kaiba guy is breathing on me. HE. IS. BREATHING. ON. ME!! His breath isn't bad but COME ON!! Okay calm down, in a few hours this will be over…hopefully…'

Seto opened his eyes, "M-Mokuba? You're not asleep yet, what's wrong?"

Miki tensed up, "O-oh me, yes…nothing's wrong…I just had a nightmare…"

Seto frowned, "You never had a nightmare with me before." Miki didn't look at Seto, his eye color and Mokuba's were completely different, "Well things have changed, sorry Kaib-Niisama."

Seto's eyes widened, "W-were you just call me Kaiba?"

Miki's heart was racing, "N-no Niisama, you know, you're hallucinating."

Seto got up, "Hallucinating!? How could you say that when I perfectly heard you almost say 'Kaiba'?" "I…I'm sorry…uh…." Miki bit his lip, 'The plan's not going well.'

Seto grabbed Miki's shoulder, "Mokuba, what's wrong with you? You're voice seems a bit different. You seem different."

Miki swallowed, "Puberty? You know, I'm getting older, you've experienced it, you should understand. I-I'm getting tired now, good night. Sorry that I woke you up."

Seto's eyebrow was raised and as he was about to question Miki again, Miki released himself from Seto's grip and fell asleep.

Seto sighed, "What's wrong with you Mokuba…" Seto lied down and put his arms around Miki.

Now at the Spiral, the gang tried to think of a plan to get Mokuba back.

Seimei growled, "What do you mean there's no way!?!?" Seimei grabbed Rai's shirt, "There has to be a way! There's always a way!!"

Rai didn't look at Seimei, "There is no way…Hiri and Velana has the whole Net covered with security…"

Starlight winced every time Seimei yelled back, she hated loud noises. "Rai, Seimei…" Starlight said quietly but loud enough for the other two to hear.

They turned to her.

Starlight fidgeted with the seam on her sleeve, "…There is one way..." A smirk formed, "...Eve…"

Rai and Seimei's eyes widened and simultaneously whispered, "Eve…"

If you're thinking Eve is a human being or someone like Starlight than you're completely wrong. Eve is a mutant—yes mutant—bird.

Seimei smirked, "Well what do you say Rai?" Rai closed his eyes than opened them again, "Let's go save Mokuba." Starlight smiled, "I'm going to get Eve."

Mokuba was backing away each time Cell got closer to him. Mokuba's eyes widened when his back touched the wall. Cell lifted his arms slowly to Mokuba's neck, "Mokuba…I won't fight you now…" Cell whispered in a menacing tone, "…but keep in mind…the war is beginning."

Mokuba grabbed on to Cell's hands, "L-let go…" he said feebly. Cell only tightened his grip.

Mokuba started to dig his nails into Cell's skin.

Cell's eyes were wide as he screamed, "BECOME STRONGER MOKUBA, STRON—"

Before Cell could finish what he was saying, a huge bird crashed through the Net's tower with two people on it.

Rai jumped off Eve and landed on the ground as if he had cat-like reflexes.

Cell's grip loosed on Mokuba, truly speechless….

Mokuba saw this chance of escape. He ran towards the bird, thinking it was safe.

Rai glared at Cell who just stood there, letting Mokuba escape. "What did you do with Mokuba?" Rai demanded.

Cell laughed, "We had a chat, nothing more but I warn you Rai. You can't ignore the up comings, if the child doesn't learn now; he will never be able to survive. He's involved in it weather you like it or not. He was involved from the moment of his birth."

Seimei helped Mokuba get on Eve. Rai just glared, "Cell you bastard, you don't even know what you're talking about."

Cell smirked, yes, this chat wasn't even close to how he expected it to be but because of this setback, a good thing has occurred…

Mokuba wrapped his arms around Seimei's waist, to him, it was his lifeline, "S-Sei-Seimei…is this-is this ah…!" Eve started to fly faster, "….S-safe!?"

Seimei smiled and put his arm around Mokuba's shoulders protectively, "Of course it is, Eve is a gentle creature. She wouldn't hurt a fly."

Rai made Mokuba look at him then he demanded, "What happened there?"

Mokuba frowned and then remembered, "I want to know everything. What's this about a war? And Cell said I had powers…what kind of powers do I have? Is it my fault this war started?"

Seimei snickered, "Well Rai? Go on and answer his questions."

Rai growled, he looked back at Mokuba who had pleading eyes. Rai looked away, he couldn't resist Neo's eyes and now he can't resist Mokuba's.

Mokuba grabbed one of Rai's hands with both of his hands, "Rai, please, I want to know…I need to know…"

It was quiet for moment expect for the sound of air swishing everywhere. There light rain and Eve squawked but other than that, no other sound was made.

Seimei popped his knuckles, "Well Mokuba, I better tell you since Rai here, is being stubborn." Seimei took a deep breath, "The war happened a long, long time ago, during the time when Neo was still alive. That's all I can tell you about it since I wasn't there. We all have powers. Starlight has psychic abilities, Rai's powers are unknown to me, there some kind of spiritual techniques. I'm half-human so…I don't have any powers but I'm good fighter, and you…well…Rai's supposed to help you with learning your powers but he won't because he's an ass."

Mokuba's eyes widened, "S-so I really do have powers!" Mokuba pouted and turned to Rai, "Why won't you teach me? I want to be helpful in the war!"

Rai shook his head and scowled, "No Mokuba, I'm not teaching you. There is nothing and I mean nothing you can do to change my mind."

"But—"

"End. Of. Discussion."

Mokuba pouted and turned around not facing Rai who did the same. Seimei could sense the tense atmosphere so to make it better; he cleared his throat and asked, "Who wants to play 'I spy with my little eye'?"

The clock stroke 8:00 and Seto woke up with a yawn. He looked down and saw Mokuba wasn't there besides him. At first he started to worry but then he heard the water running and knew Mokuba was in the bathroom.

Seto knocked on the bathroom door, "Hey Mokuba, you okay? You never wake up this early."

Miki, the pretend Mokuba, tried to sound cute but instead he sounded like a teen who hasn't slept all night, "Ah…ee…Seto…wait no Kaiba…crap….uh..Niisama….I-I'm er uh great."

Seto tensed up, "I'm opening the door, Mokuba."
