Chapter Seven
Today Seto, Joey and Mokuba were getting ready to go back to school after the long week-end and neither Seto nor Joey were thinking about how some of the students would be talking about them but they were soon to find out just how anti-gay some of the students of Domino High really were.
As the limo stopped outside the High School and the door opened and Mokuba got out followed by Seto then Joey, several of the students began whispering and saying very ignorant and vile things.
Yugi, Yami, Ryou, Bakura, Malik and Marik went over to Seto and Joey and Yugi said "we're sorry to hear about your dad."
Joey smiled at his friends and said "thanks, but how did you find out about that?"
Yami told him "the hospital called the Game Shop first and I told them that you were working at Seto's and then I gave them the address. Hope that was alright?"
Seto held out his hand and Yami shook it and Seto said "thanks for doing that and it was more then alright."
Tristan and Duke came walking over to where all of them were standing and Duke asked in a very derogatory voice "what's this we are hearing about you Joey? Are you and Kaiba having some kind of faggot relationship?"
Before Joey could answer Duke, he was flying through the air and landed on the ground with and thud and Tristan ran over to his friend and he angrily said "Bakura what was that for? What the hell does what he said to Joey have to do with you?"
Before Bakura could say a word, the Security Officers were running over to their direction to try to defuse the situation before it got really out of control. They turned to Bakura and one of the Officers said " all of you involved need to come with us to the Principal's Office so that we can figure out what is going on."
Tristan and Duke said "we'll go because Bakura hit Duke and he needs to be reprimended for it."
Bakura started laughing in his most manically laughter and then he said "well boys, lets see if you can make me."
Joey had finally had enough and he shouted "leave him the hell alone! This doesn't have to do with him it has to do with Duke and me." The Officer then said "well if you want to be a smart ass then I guess you will have to come with us too."
This angered Seto who walked over and made Joey stand behind him and he said "if you lay on hand on Joey you'll find yourself in one hell of a lawsuit and when I'm through with you and anyone else who wants to get into this, I will make damn sure that none of you will ever never work in Domino again and I will personally make damn sure that you are all living on the street with the rest of the trash! Is that understood!!!"
When Seto was finished with what he had just said Yami and the others were very proud to be able to call him friend, and as Yami walked over to where Joey and Seto stood he said aloud "anyone who says anything about either Joey or Seto will also be talking about us, and that will be something that none of us will ever tolerate, so be very careful what you say!"
Seto held out his hand and Yami shook it and then Seto said to Joey "lets go, I have to call my Attorney before we speak to the Principal" so they walked off leaving the Security Officers standing there wondering what the hell just happened.
Jacob Wingate rushed to the High School after speaking to Seto and the three of them walked into the Principal's Office and sat down. "Now I have to advice you that this conversation will be taped because of the situation that occurred on the grounds of this High School, and that they have been advised of their legal rights."
Mr. Keller closed his eyes and then he said "what happened out there?"
Joey stood and he said "I've been staying at the Manor because my father was going to be out of town for several days, and Roland didn't want me to be go home alone. Then I received word that my dad had been in a accident and he would be hospitalized for several days before he could come home. Then when we get to school that's when Duke and Tristan came over to where we were talking to some of my friends and Duke started saying "things about us being faggots" and well Bakura hates that word and he threw Duke backwards and well that's when Security came over and started hassling us." Then Joey sat down.
Mr. Keller looked at the head of Security and he asked "is that what happened?"
Donovan then said "from what my men are saying, that's what happened and I've already reprimanded the two men involved sir."
Mr. Keller the turned back to Seto and Joey and he said "I am very sorry that this happened. This school has a zero tolerance for violence and derogatory name calling and I intend to have an assembly in one hour where I will again address this to all the students. Please accept my apology for what has happened and believe me I hope that it never happens again."
The three of them stood and both Seto and Joey shook Mr. Keller's hand and they walked out of the Office and Seto thanked Jacob for coming down to the school and as he left them and went back to Kaiba Corp. Joey turned to Seto and he said "you know this is only going to get worse don't you?"
Seto smiled at Joey and he said "I can take it if you can, because I will never allow anyone to keep us apart, because I love you Joey Wheeler he whispered." They then walked to their classrooms and hoped that this day wouldn't get any worse.
An hour later over the intercom came Mr. Keller's voice and he said "There will be an assembly in the Auditorium in thirty minutes and it is mandatory that every student attends."
