Chapter Ten:
Gwen's Dark Secret

"Ugh...where am I? Am I in Heaven?"

He slowly woke up, and suddenly found himself in nothing but a darkened room. He lifts his arms up and saw that he was in a small room...but why does it felt as if he shrink and turned small? He lifts both his arms up, and suddenly found a lid, and threw it to the other side of the room. He then climbs out of it, and saw that it was a room filled with boxes, metal capsules, mirrors, computer screens, and electronic equipment.

"Whoa, what is this? Why does everything seemed so...small?"

He walks past a couple of wires and capsules, and looks at a mirror. But it wasn't himself that was in the mirror...

"Aww, cute! What is a small, yellow puppy like him doing alone in this place? Hi! Wh-wait a minute..."

The cute, little robotic-like puppy in the mirror was actually Geoff, and as soon as he realized this, he yells, "CRAP! THEY MADE A PUPPY OUT OF ME! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Meanwhile with Yugi, Tea, LeShawna, Joey, Duncan, Duke, and Serenity, they left the hanger and found themselves in front of a facility filled with warehouses.

"Poor Geoff," Serenity commented, as she held Duke's hand in a soft grip. "I hope he's okay."

Yugi looks at her and said, "Of course he is, Serenity. The Big Five probably has him captive somewhere. We just need to find him, that's all."

"Yeah, don't forget about the Kaibas and Gwen," said Duncan. "They should probably be around here somewhere too."

"Let's hope we find them before the Big Five does," Tea said, with encouragement in her voice.

Before long, Kaiba, Mokuba, and Gwen were lead away from where the beach was and was now crossing what seemed to be a desert, the sun now setting in the distance. Gwen was still holding onto her boots with one hand as she used her other free hand to wipe away the sweat from her forehead from the heat and all.

"It feels like we've been walking forever," she muttered under her breath. "How long do we have to keep walking?"

"Beats the heck out of me," Mokuba answered. "I'm sure we'll find some shade soon...I hope."

Kaiba stopped in his tracks as something caught his eye in the distance. Gwen and Mokuba noticed him as frozen as a statue and stopped to look at him.

"Seto, you alright?" Mokuba asked.

Gwen then turned to see what Kaiba was looking at, but her eyes widened a bit when she saw a group of buildings not too far from where they were. "What the heck are those?" she asked.

"That's the old Kaiba Corp. Military Factory," Kaiba replied.

"Military Factory? But when was your company..." Gwen stopped and remembered. "Oh wait, that's right. After you took over, you turned the company into a gaming company, right?"

Kaiba nodded. "I ordered that factory to be shut down and destroyed years ago," he explained. "One of the Big Five, Nesbitt, was in charge of that facility, but tore it down. It was one of the smartest decisions that I have ever made." The CEO then gripped both his fists as he blurted out, "Why is Noah showing all of this? What is it that he wants from me? How does he know everything of my past?"

He shouted out, "If you're listening to me, Noah, then you can't treat me like a puppet, forever! When I find out who you really are, you are going to pay for ever messing with me!"

The trio then waited to see if they could hear a response...but all they could hear is just the desert winds.

"You know, I can't really tell if he's listening or not," the Goth Girl pointed out.

Kaiba scoffed and kept walking. "Whatever. Let's check it out." With that, he, Mokuba, and Gwen continued onward towards the facility, which looks far away in the distance what with the heat radiating down upon them.

After several minutes of walking, just as they saw that they were getting closer and closer to the facility, Gwen couldn't help but to rub her eyes a bit from staring out into the sun for so long, and was now starting to see things that totally wasn't normal, but when she opened her eyes again, she stopped where she was and saw another door standing before her. Kaiba and Mokuba both stopped and stared at it, as well.

"What the...great, another one?" Mokuba said. "What does Noah want to show us now?"

Gwen let out a groan as she leaned down to put her boots on. "Well, whatever it is he wants to show us, this better be important."

Kaiba scoffed as he walked towards the door. "Let's make this quick, already. This is all clearly a waste of time. If he wanted to face me, he could've done so, already." He then stood before the door and laid his hand on the handle. When he opened it, there was a glow, and it had glowed brighter and brighter the more Kaiba opens the door wider.

Everyone closed their eyes, as the bright glow surrounded them.

When the glow had faded away, the trio opened their eyes and blinked a few times before looking around to see where they are. It was strange. They looked and saw that they were in a cul-de-sac, with small houses all around.

Mokuba blinked his eyes again in confusion.

"This...this is weird," he said. "Seto, I don't remember being here, do you?"

Kaiba just shook his head. "Of course not. Do you think I would've known?"

Gwen looked around the neighborhood and rubbed her chin a little. She suddenly heard someone opening a door and a little girl's voice is called out, "Okay, mom! We're going out!"

Another voice spoke out, "Don't be out too long!"

The Goth Girl turned her head...and her eyes widened, and felt herself holding her breath. Out of one of the houses came out two small kids, who looked as if they were around the ages of 9 and 8. One was a simple girl with matching black hair and eyes but with a small blue bow on one side of her head, wearing just a simple blue T-shirt with green longsleeves underneath with a pair of blue shorts on with black Mary Jane shoes. The other was a boy with long brown hair, has the same eyes as the girl, and was wearing an orange T-shirt with a pair of jean shorts and sandals.

Kaiba and Mokuba then saw the two kids and watched with Gwen as both of the kids were out in their front yard, the young boy holding up a soccer ball.

"C'mon sis! Think you can beat me?" the boy asked.

The girl let out a giggle. "Would I ever. Now give me that ball, Alex!"

"Well then, catch me if you can!"

The boy dropped the soccer and kicked it at the other side. The girl made a dash for it, but the boy also ran for the ball and so they both played around trying to take the soccer ball from the other, all the while laughing and smiling all at the same time.

"Who are those two?" Mokuba asked. "They look like they're having fun."

Gwen continued to watch as the two kids played around, and was so shocked at the image before her that when she tried to speak, no words came from her mouth. Kaiba looked over to her and saw the look on Gwen's face.

"You alright?"

Gwen snapped out of her thoughts and turned her head to face Kaiba. She turned away and shook her head.

"Those kids right there...They're...they're...that's me and my little brother! Back seven years ago!"

Both Kaiba and Mokuba's eyes widened with shock, and they both turned back to look at the little kids, who had tackled each other to the ground and then laughed about it afterwards.

"I get it now! That girl right there! That's you, wasn't it?" Mokuba asked.

Gwen could only nod. "Why would Noah want to send us here?"

Before they knew it, everything faded to black all around them. They then finally found themselves in what seemed to be inside of a home, where there was the young Gwen, who was sitting on a kitchen table. There were drawing paper scattered everywhere, and that she was doodling. And right across from her was a man that seemed to be in his late twenties, with messy black hair, but has quite noticeable handsome features.

"Crap," the Goth girl muttered.

"Who's that guy?" Mokuba asked, pointing a finger at him.

"Th-that's my dad," said Gwen.

Kaiba turns his head to look at her and asked, "Your dad?"

The Goth girl nodded, while explaining while looking at the scenerio before them, "My dad and I...we used to be so close. He would teach me some things he know when he's around my age. We would also go to places together."

The trio saw the young Gwen handing over the paper she was doodling on towards her dad, in which he took and looked at it for a few seconds.

"Nice job, your getting good at this," he said with a smile, before setting the paper down. "But there's a couple of mistakes. Watch what I can do, okay?"

He took a pencil and started to draw over it, with the young Gwen leaning over the table to watch him and realized what she missed out.

"Oh," the young Gwen slowly said.

"No worries, all you need is just a little bit of practice," her dad said, giving her a small pat on the head.

The young girl slightly blushes and said, "S-sure. Right."

"And I was also taught on how to draw," Gwen commented. "I practiced many times and learned from him."

Mokuba walks up towards the huge mess of papers, some doodles about aliens, basketball, and what seemed to be Gwen's parents and younger brother. There were others doodled too.

"I can see why," he said.

Everything fades around them to black once more, and they suddenly found themselves in what seemed to be one of those hallways from an elementary school. The hallway was filled with small lockers, doors leading to classrooms and restrooms. The clock strike three, and when this happens, the bells suddenly go off, with kids running out to get the heck out of school.

Gwen went ahead and walks ahead of Kaiba and Mokuba, walking through the hallway. Mokuba decided to follow her, and then his older brother afterwards. The Goth girl walks through, and suddenly heard a loud banging sound. She looks over, and saw the younger version of her brother getting surrounded by three, tall-looking bullies.

"Tough luck in the Karate Try Outs, Alex!" the blonde haired girl said. "They outta kick you out, permanently!"

"Yeah, my wittle sister can fight better than you!" a dumb-looking boy said, punching Alex in the face once more.

Gwen remembers this day. She remembered about her brother getting beat up the day after the first try outs. Mokuba saw the scene before him, and got mad.

"Hey!" he yelled. "Get away from him!"

"Mokuba, this is a Virtual Simulation, remember?" the Goth girl reminded her.

The Young Brother looks away, blushing slightly and said, "Oh, yeah."

Kaiba walks up right next to the Goth girl, and couldn't help but watch as the bullies continue to torment Alex, and continues to beat him and slam him against the locker. But before one of them can throw another punch at him, the dumb-looking boy was shoved onto the ground. Not too soon after that, the blonde hair girl got one of her pigtails pulled harshly until her face got slammed onto the locker.

Before a tall, brown hair boy can do anything, he felt like someone went between his legs and kicks him where it hurts. When this was all over, the young version of Gwen suddenly appeared in front of Alex, looking like she just survived a fight.

"Hey, it you!" the blonde hair girl yelled, her face stinging in pain.

"Leave Alex alone, or else I won't go easy on you!"

The dumb-looking boy looks up, and said, "You call that easy? We're out of here!"

With that, the three tall bullies all stood up and ran away as fast as they could down the hallway. Young Gwen turns around, and helps her brother out.

"Hey, you saved me," Alex muttered.

She took his hand, and said, "Come on. I'll take you to the nurse. It's a lot safer there."

Alex couldn't help but to shed a tear, and smile at his older sister, saying, "Th-thanks."

With that, both siblings started down the hall, hand-in-hand.

"So...you saved your brother?" Mokuba asked, looking over to Gwen.

The Goth Girl nodded before saying, "Sometimes. He usually gets bullied alot when we were kids."

The Young Brother smiled, and said, "And not to mention the way you treated those bullies! That was awesome!"

Gwen rolled her eyes away and smiled, rubbing one of her arms and said, "Uh...yeah."

Kaiba couldn't help but to look at her with astonishment in his eyes and thought, That's kind of the same way I would do whenever I protect Mokuba. Even back at the orphanage. Are there more things about her than I already know?

Everything around them faded into black once more, and they saw themselves back into the same house they were in. Not after a split second, there was a large yell.

"What was that?" Mokuba asked.

Gwen ran over towards the hallway, and from what she least expected it, she found her dad, beating up her mother until she hits harshly against the wall.

"No," she said, looking down on the ground.

Both Kaiba and Mokuba caught up with her, and saw the scenerio continuing before them. Her dad grabbing her mom ruthlessly by the hair, and kicks her in the face as her head hits against the wall, causing a small hole.

"Whoa, this is crazy!" the Young Brother freaked.

"I remember," said Gwen. "This was one of those days...ever since my dad got laid off of work..."

Mokuba turns his head to look at her before the Goth Girl continued, "I'm not sure what made him changed to be like this other than that, but...now and then, he would...do things to my mom...and sometimes my brother and I...whenever she gets paid extra in her job or if she finds his secret stash, or cheating on her with another man eater...then..."

Mokuba's head pokes up and asked, "What secret stash?"

"Mokuba, when we get home, remind me to remind you to go to your room," said Kaiba.

"DAD, STOP!"

All three looked and saw the young Gwen hitting against her dad, defending against her mother, who was now unconscious.

"Dad, what are you thinking?"

Her father glares at his daughter, took a random lamp from a small stand, and hits her against it.

"Don't EVER hit me again!"

The young Gwen wiped her forehead, and saw with her hand that she was bleeding a little bit. She was then cut short when her dad took the small stand and hits her against it multiple times. He threw it away, before reaching into his boot and drawing out a small knife. Kaiba's eyes widen when he saw this, and when he at least expects it, Gwen's dad tries to hit her with it, but the young girl kept missing. He then slashes it, and makes a direct target to her shirt...and the tip of the blade hitting her stomach.

He then leans down on top of his daughter, who was crying from the pain, and lifts up the knife. After a minute or two, he hesitates before getting off of her. He places the knife back into his boot, and stomps past Kaiba, Mokuba, and Gwen. A loud, door banging sound was heard, as the Goth girl looks back at her past self. She watches herself, as tears were rolling down her cheeks from the pain and the small amounts of blood on her forehead and stomach, pleading for the pain to go away.

Gwen then felt something wrapping around her waist. She looked down and saw Mokuba clinging onto her.

"M-Mokuba?"

The Young Brother leaned his head up to look at her with a sorry look in his eyes and says, "Gwen, I'm so sorry about what you've been through. What your dad did; that was just horrible. Was he the reason why...well, you know?"

"Relax, I know you don't want to offend me for being a Goth who likes everything dark, skulls, and such," Gwen pointed out. "And...that is part of it."

"Part of it?" Mokuba asked. "You mean..."

Kaiba instantly knew what the Goth Girl meant, and had opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out from his mouth.

But the pain didn't stop there... Everything had faded to black all around the trio.

"Now what? I hope we're just going back," Mokuba said.

Before they knew it, the trio were now in what seemed to look like a bedroom. The walls were colored with tanned wallpapers with brown carpets on the floor, a dresser with a TV on top, a couple of nightstands, a green couch, and a queen-sized bed in the center of the room.

"I don't think we've seen the end of this," Kaiba pointed out.

Mokuba then looked up at Gwen again. "Gwen, do you remember this place?"

Gwen looked around the room. It did felt familiar to her, but she has a very bad feeling about it. Then, her, and the Kaiba brothers heard a door opening behind them, so they all turned to look, and saw to their surprise that it was Young Gwen again and her father, who looked much calmer than he did before in the previous flashback.

"Dad, what are we doing here?" Young Gwen asked.

Her father smiled down to her and answered, "Well, your mother and I are going through some...tough choices right now, so it'd be best to stay away from the house for the night."

Young Gwen nodded, but with a fearful look in her eyes. "Y-You're not gonna hurt me again, will you?"

Gwen's father nodded. "No, no. You did nothing wrong, dear."

The young girl then walks into the room and right in front of the trio, but then flinched when she heard the door locked from behind her. She then turned around and looked up to her father and asked, "Uh, Dad? Why did you lock the door?"

Gwen's eyes widened.

She remembered.

She remembered why this place was so familiar.

"N...No..." she whispered, her shoulders starting to shake.

"Gwen? You alright?" Mokuba asked.

Kaiba also noticed Gwen's change in behavior. They all watched on as her father took her daughter's hand and led her to the bed, phasing through the trio as if they were just ghosts. They all turned around and saw her father lifting up Gwen with both his hands and set her down on the edge of the bed and knelt down in front of her.

"Just so no one would barge in here and to prevent bad people from breaking in here and doing bad things," Gwen's father explained.

For some reason, to Kaiba, it felt like a lie. Mokuba pulled away from Gwen and continued to watch, thinking about what her father would want with her. Fear began to swept up on the Goth Girl, her eyes widening.

Young Gwen then sniffed the air and then asked, "Dad, was that your breath? It smells icky."

Her dad chuckled. "Forgive me, Gwenny. I've had a few things along with my dinner, but I'll be fine. Now then..."

He reached out his hand and took hold of her arm. Gwen lets out a small scoff as she watched on with a digusted look on her face.

"D-Daddy...you said you wouldn't hurt me. Why are you...ow!"

Gwen's father crept up over her and whispered in her ear, "You remind me so much of your mother...I wonder if you taste the same."

"W-What?"

Her father licked her daughter's ear as she let out a gasp.

"D-Dad! What are you...? Dad!"

Her father then got up, picked up Young Gwen and threw her on the center of the bed. Without hesitating, he got onto the bed and crawled his way on top of his own daughter and slams his mouth against hers rather hungrily.

Kaiba and Mokuba's eyes widened in shock at the sight before them, and Gwen simply placed both her hands over her mouth, and felt the waterworks in her eyes starting to work.

"Daddy! Stop! Dad! Get off! Dad! Stop!"

Kaiba immediately took action and placed both his hands over Mokuba's eyes.

"What the, Seto!"

"When you're older, Mokuba!"

"But..."

"I said when you're older!"

Gwen began to sob at the sight. The haunting memories began to come back to her. She places her hands over her head and closed her eyes. She could still hear her younger self scream at the top of her lungs.

"AH! DADDY! STOP IT! PLEASE STOP!"

The CEO clung onto his brother as tight as he could, as he looked away. By now, Gwen had started to sob, the screaming still getting louder and louder within every minute.

"S-Stop...p-please...please stop..." she muttered under her breath. Without thinking, the Goth Girl leaned her head up and shouted. "STOP IT, NOAH! NO MORE! PLEASE NO MORE! STOP THIS! PLEASE STOP THIS!"

With that, Gwen had knelt down to the ground and clutched her head some more as she tried to block off the screaming. Kaiba looked over to Gwen and saw how this was effecting her. He supressed a growl and then stared up at the ceiling.

"NOAH! STOP THIS, NOW!"

"Already? Fine, if that is what you want. And to think we were just about to get to the fun part."

A white glow had surrounded the trio, and the young Gwen's screaming had faded away. Gwen places her hands on the ground, and felt the soft warm sand. She continued to sob a little as she looked around, and saw that they were back outside the abandoned facility still out in the desert. Kaiba and Mokuba then pulled apart and looked around.

"I'm glad that was over," Mokuba said, before looking over to Gwen and saw her current state, watching her continue to cry on the sand-covered ground. "G-Gwen?"

Kaiba looked over and saw the Goth Girl, who looked as if she was struggling to stop herself from crying, but with no success.

"So...so Gwen was..." Mokuba slowly said before lowering his head down.

Kaiba nodded, without taking his eyes off of Gwen.

"Yes, Mokuba. She was...she was raped...but by her own father. So it really was true."

Gwen instantly stopped sobbing and her eyes opened up, but with a frightened look on her face. She then looked up at the CEO and said with a snappy tone, "W-What was true?"

Mokuba then blinked in realization and then looked back up at his older brother. "Wait. Does this have to do about what happened last night? Was that why the doctor wanted to talk to you, big brother?"

By now, Gwen had fully stood up and looked over at Kaiba, that frightful look still on her face. "Talked to you about what? Kaiba, don't lie to me. You knew about this? You knew about this all along?"

Kaiba stared at Gwen in the eyes and could see the hurt in her eyes. He doesn't know why, but he felt...somewhat sorry for the poor Goth Girl. He looked away and he simply nodded his head.

"I've known since last night. I've made sure no one else knew."

Gwen lowered her head down and clenched her fists so tight that they started to turn white. She let out a couple more sobs before she muttered something under her breath that Kaiba and Mokuba didn't catch what she just said.

"Pardon?" Kaiba asked.

The Goth girl muttered something again, but the Kaiba brothers still didn't heard her right.

"Gwen, what is it?" Mokuba asked. He wanted to get close to Gwen and hold her hands in a way to comfort her, but was afraid that she wouldn't allow that.

"I...you..."

Kaiba simply places a hand on his hip and said, "I still don't get it."

Gwen simply leaned her head up and shot a hateful look at the CEO, and shouted out,

"I HATE YOU, SETO KAIBA!"

Without even thinking, Gwen immediately took off away from both Kaiba and Mokuba, heading straight for the facility. The Young Brother reached his hand out and called out, "Gwen! Wait! Come back!"

Gwen didn't listen. Instead, she kept on running, tears still running down her face like a flowing river, letting out a sob every minute or two as she kept on running. All Kaiba could do is just stand there and watched her go. Something glimmered out of the corner of his eye.

The CEO stared down at the ground and saw the pearl that Gwen has had earlier. She must've dropped it when she took off. He reached down and held up the pearl in his hand. He tightly took hold of the pearl, and after a couple minutes, he called out,

"Gwen! Wait!"

With that, he took off after the Goth Girl. Mokuba stood there for a moment out of confusion but then shook his head and went after his older brother, calling out, "Seto! Hold on!"

Within several minutes, they had finally made it into the abandoned facility, but by the time he got there, Kaiba saw that Gwen was nowhere to be seen. He looked around some more, as Mokuba caught up with him, and groaned out of fustration.

"Darn it!"

"She's probably hiding, Seto," Mokuba simply said, and then called out. "Gwen! It's alright! You can come out! We want to help you! Gwen!"

They both took off further into the facility, trying to look for any source of life. Kaiba then hollered once more, "Gwen! Where are you? Gwen!"

In one of the empty alleyways filled with empty crates and boxes, there sat Gwen, sitting with her back leaned against the wall and her arms wrapped around her legs. There were still tears falling from her face as she let out a couple of sobs and could hear Kaiba and Mokuba's voices in the distance.

"Gwen! Come out! Please! Gwen!"

She could hear Mokuba's innocent voice calling out. To think that a young kid such as him had to witness something like that. Why he doesn't seem traumatized by that, she'll never know. The next question is why Kaiba seemed so eager to find her, as well.

The Goth Girl leaned her head down and continued to sob quietly, just so the Kaiba brothers wouldn't hear her. She could hear a box fall not too far from her. She leaned her head up and had instantly stopped crying and took a look around.

There, standing before her, was Geoff, but with an emotionless look on his face.

"G-Geoff. There you are!"

She then instantly got up on her feet and made her way over to him. Gwen then clunged onto him and leaned her face against his bare chest as she said, "Thank goodness you're here. I can't stand being here any longer, especially with Kaiba. P-Please tell me that Yugi and the rest are nearby."

She could hear Geoff chuckle, but when the Goth Girl looked up at him, she notices something...odd about his eyes.

"G-Geoff? A-Are you al-ack!"

Gwen then felt hitting her back against the wall and a tightening force on her neck. She looked up and saw Geoff and his hands around her neck, strangling her! She reacted and placed both her hands on his wrists, trying to pry him off of her.

"L-Let go! Let-ack!"

She started to cough, as his grip got tighter and tighter.

"Don't worry. You won't die...but your body will soon be ours for the taking!"

Tears once again fell from her eyes, as she struggled so hard to breathe. That voice...that's not Geoff's voice! Geoff would never do something like this to her or the others!

"K-Kaiba! KAIBA!"

Geoff slammed her against the wall again, as Gwen started to violently cough.

"It'll be over soon, so just wait..."

Gwen notice black dots in her vision, and felt fatigue suddenly washing over her. She tried to stay conscious as much as she can, and did one final thing just in case...she kicked Geoff between his legs to the point where he lets go of her. The Goth Girl fell to the ground and closed her eyes, waiting to pass out and for the pain to cease...

She already had enough pain for more than one lifetime.

"...Seto..."
