A/N: THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS! I AM GLAD YOU ALL LIKE THE STORY! CHAPTER 10

Seto felt his heart stop. He couldn't breathe. Anzu was just lying there. Her body was face down completely motionless. He quickly got a grip on reality as he rushed over to her.

"Anzu? Anzu what happened?" He knelt down next to her and took her in his arms

"Seto what's going on why did you..." Mokuba began but when he finally got to his brother's room he saw why his brother was so frantic. "ANZU!! SETO WHAT HAPPENED?!"

"Mokuba call an ambulance" Kaiba ordered him

"S-Seto? You're here?" Anzu managed to say.

"Of course I am here..." he said

"Seto...I..." she began only for Kaiba to cut her off.

"Don't talk your going to be fine" he whispered

"But the baby...." she said in a weak tone

"The baby's going to be fine too just relax." He said. Much to his horror, Anzu fell unconscious.

"Anzu...Anzu!" he tried to wake her.

"It's my sister in law she's pregnant and she...." Mokuba was on the phone.

"Mokuba just forget it. Hang up...I will take her myself" Kaiba said standing and picking her up bridal style.

"Okay"

"Mokuba call our personal doctor and tell him to meet us at the hospital now! And if he is not there when we get there then he is fired!" Seto left and headed for the car.

"Okay" Mokuba ran after his brother.

"Doctor how is she?" Mokuba asked

"She is stable...for now" the doctor replied

"What do mean for now?" Kaiba asked.

"We found a toxic substance in her system." The doctor said

"What! She was poisoned!!!" Kaiba clenched his fists

"But how can that be? All she had was a glass of water!" Mokuba said.

"The type of toxin was a clear tasteless substance called cyclometihese (AN: I don't know what the hell that is I just made it up LOL). It came from America. We have two types of antidotes that will clear up the poison, and we gave her the first one to fight off the poison. If that one doesn't work then we will try the second one. It is very important that the poison gets out before it takes full effect." The doctor explained.

"And if the second antidote doesn't work?" Kaiba asked afraid of the answer

"Then we would have to conduct an emergency C-section." The doctor replied

"You can't do that it's too early!!" Mokuba protested

"That is a last resort. The baby is not strong enough to fight off the poison and the mixture of the poison and the antidote would be too much for the infant to handle. The child would not survive. If we had to perform a cesarean, the child would have a better chance of survival...If it comes to that. Right now we have to hope that it doesn't come to that...we just have to wait and see." The doctor said

"I want to see her." Kaiba said

Okay, but only for a few minutes. It is very important that we keep a close eye on her. She is still unconscious.

Kaiba walked in the room. He felt his heart stop as he looked at the sight before him. Anzu was lying there hooked up on IV's and a breathing tube in her mouth. All that was heard was the soft beeping of her heart monitor and the sound of the air flowing through her breathing tube. He made his way over to her, sat in a chair that was located next to her bed. He took on of her hands and placed it in his own. He gave her hand a kiss and looked at her. "Anzu...I am so sorry" he whispered. 'I swear that bastard is going to pay for what he has done. You and the baby are going to make it through this...I don't know what I would do if I lost either of you. Anzu...you make me feel things that I am not supposed to feel. You are the only one who has ever had the guts to stand up to me. You make me laugh, something I haven't done in years. I enjoy arguing with you even over the little things. We would get off subject and forget what the hell we were even arguing about in the first place. I can't picture my life without you. I lo....' he was about to finish his thought but a loud voice interrupted him.

"Listen you Anzu is like a sister to us we have to see her!" the voice stated

"No one is allowed in the room! I understand this is a difficult time for you all. Now please calm down before I have security throw you out. You are disturbing other patients." The nurse said

"What the hell is going on out here?" Kaiba came out of the room.

"There you are! What the hell did you do to Anzu rich boy?" Joey asked almost yelling.

"Shut it Wheeler, I am in no mood for your bullshit right now." He stated harshly.

"How did you guys know we were here?" Mokuba asked

"We heard it on the news and rushed right over." Yugi replied

"Did you say on the news?" Kaiba's eyes widened with shock.

"Yea some guy named Takanaka said he was a business associate of yours and that he offers his deepest sympathy." Yugi said

Kaiba was outraged "That does it...That bastard has gone way too far." He growled

"Who is this guy?" Tristan asked

"It doesn't matter this doesn't concern you geeks...so do yourselves a favor and get the hell out of here!" Kaiba stated

"If it involves Anzu, then it is our concern." Yugi said.

"Yea she is our best friend and there is no way in hell we are leaving... now unless there is something you don't want us to know I see no reason why we can't stay." Joey added

"Just what are you implying?" Mokuba asked frowning.

"Gee Mokuba I don't know maybe that this pompous brother of yours is the reason she is in the hospital!" Joey yelled

Kaiba then slammed Joey against a near-by wall.

"Don't you ever...as long as there is air flowing through your lungs insinuate that I would do anything to harm Anzu or my child is that clear?!" Kaiba yelled putting as much venom in his voice as he possibly could.

"I advise you to take your hands off of me rich boy before you find yourself in a hospital bed!" Joey yelled back

"Just try it Wheeler" Kaiba glared

"Stop it you two this is ridiculous! Anzu is in there fighting for her life!" Tristan said

"Yea and this isn't helping" Yugi Jumped in.

"Se-to come on" Mokuba begged his brother.

Kaiba was about to respond when they heard a loud beeping noise.

"What is that?" Yugi Asked.

Kaiba's eyes widened in horror. "It's coming from Anzu's room!"

"Doctor we have an emergency in here!" the nurse yelled

"Mr. Kaiba you have to wait outside" the doctor said

"I have to be in there with her!" Kaiba yelled

"Sir please just let us do our job." The nurse went back inside and closed the door. Kaiba was about to lose what little control he had left if his brother hadn't hugged him.

The gang waited in an uncomfortable silence as they waited. The doctor finally comes out of the room.

"How is she?" Kaiba asked

"Anzu had a bad reaction to the first antidote. I have her stabilized. The good news is the poison had not spread any further, however it is still a threat. We are going switch her to the new antidote and we will just have to wait from there." The doctor replied

"Thanks doctor" Mokuba said

"Wait a second...antidote? She was poisoned?" Yugi asked as everyone turned to face Kaiba.

"Don't you geeks have anywhere else to be?" He said annoyed.

"Seto...their just trying to help. Anzu needs all the support she can get right now." Mokuba said.

Kaiba knew his brother was right, but he'd never admit to it.

"Mokuba...I will be right back."

"Wait where are you going?" Mokuba asked

"To take care of something." He responded

When Kaiba was out of sight, he took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

"It's me. Listen carefully; I want you to find that bastard Takanaka. You know what to do and get back to me ASAP!" he then hung up. He decided to take a walk to blow off some steam.

He walked back into the hospital. He spotted her friends in the waiting area sleeping. He walked into Anzu's room and saw Mokuba in a nearby chair asleep as well. He glanced over to the clock and saw that it was almost four in the morning. 'No wonder everyone's asleep' he said to himself. He sat down close to her bed. He placed his head on her stomach. 'Anzu...I swear I won't let anyone hurt you again. Fight off this poison both of you. I need both of my girls...'he mumbled to himself before he too fell asleep.

Anzu slowly opened her eyes and slowly looked around the room she noticed that she wasn't at home. She spotted Mokuba in a near-by chair. 'Where am I?' she asked herself. She felt something grasping her left hand she looked over and saw that it was someone else hands holding her own. Her eyes traveled upward and she saw a head with brown chestnut hair resting on her stomach. She figured out that it was her husband. She ran her free hand through his hair. She always loved how soft it was. She suddenly found her self staring into a pair of blue eyes.

"You're awake." He said as he sat up.

She tried to respond but couldn't due to the breathing tube. Kaiba left the room and came back with the doctor and a nurse.

"Okay let's just remove this tube. As I pull the tube, I need you to cough for me" the doctor stated gently pulling the tube.

She did as she was told and the tube was quickly removed.

"Now your throat is going to be a little sore but it will pass. I am going to run a few tests to make sure everything is back on track okay?" the doctor said

"Okay" she stated hoarsely

"Anzu I am so glad you are awake!" Mokuba hugged her.

"Okay if you could please leave so we could get started." The nurse said.

"We will be right outside Anzu!" Mokuba stated cheerfully.

She gave him a warm smile.

"Good news guys she is awake!" Mokuba informed her friends excitedly.

"Really? That's great" Yugi said.

"When can we see her?" Joey asked

"Not now the doctor is running some tests." Kaiba said.

The doctor came out of the room and was loaded with questions.

"How is she?"

"Can we see her?"

"How is the baby?"

"Uh...Mr. Kaiba may I have a word with you?" He turned his attention to Kaiba

Kaiba just nodded and went into the spare room with the doctor.

"Is my wife and child okay?"

"Everything is just fine. There are no traces of the poison what so ever and she is recovering nicely."

"Good"

"However, she is still very weak. Her body needs time to recover. I am placing her on bed rest. Since she only has two months to go, it's not long. I also want you to limit her walking. It is very important that she gets plenty of rest." The doctor said.

"That won't be a problem. Is there anything else?" Kaiba folded his arms

"Yes. She can go home today. Just let me get her release papers so the both of you can sign. I noticed the press and the media were outside the grounds, if you like, I could show you the back way out." He offered.

"That's fine."

"Good, it will take me about an hour to finish her paperwork."

"Hn...Very well".

Kaiba walked back into Anzu's room. Much to his relief, she was alone.

"Where are your friends?" he asked

"I sent them home...I told them I would call them later." She replied

"Where's Mokuba?" he asked

"He went to get me something to eat. He said that he refused to let me eat that garbage they served in the cafeteria they call food." She gave a small smile

"I see. How do you feel?"

"Screwed over." She replied

"Anzu...I" he began but was cut off.

"How could you just leave me like that? I was so scared Seto....I needed you. But you had better things to do right?" she frowned at him

"It's not like that..."

"Enlighten me"

"That Takanaka guy was a fraud. Somehow he knew about us, every little detail. He tried to blackmail me into selling him my company. The bastard knew it wouldn't work so he targeted you."

"What do you mean?"

"That business convention was a set up. He had people everywhere. That's why when Mokuba came to me I ordered both of you to go home before he had his chance. But I was too late."

"I don't understand."

"You were poisoned."

"What!! But that is impossible...All I had was water."

"It was impossible to taste."

"Oh my god what about the baby! Seto I..." she placed her hand protectively on her stomach.

"Ssshhh...Calm down... our daughter is just fine okay?"

"Thank goodness. Wait...how did you know it's a girl? You didn't come with me to the sonogram."

"There was a reason for that. I told you I had a project I was working on. Right across the hall from our bedroom, I had my interior designers to begin working on a nursery for the baby two months ago. Yesterday they were doing the finishing touches. That is why I didn't go with you to the sonogram. I was going to surprise you when you got home."

"A nursery? I don't know what to say. But that still doesn't answer my question. You didn't even know the baby's gender."

"You don't necessarily have to know the baby's gender to do a nursery. But, to answer your question, I have known the baby's gender for months."

"What! But how did you..."she began

"Remember a couple of months back when I said I needed to have word with your nurse?"

"She told you?!"

"Yes...I paid her"

"Seto you can't do that...you made her break her doctors oath."

"First of all she is not a doctor...Secondly, I can do what I want, and I gave her my word that she would not lose her job if I had anything to say about it."

"You...you are sneaky."

"So I have been told" he replied

"I-I don't know what to say. A nursery? I'm speechless."

"That...I find hard to believe."

"Oh shut up Seto." She playfully hit him.

"So...still mad at me?"

"You make it hard to be." She gave a small smile

"For a second there, I thought I was going to lose you" he stated

"Well...You can get rid of that speech, because I am not going anywhere" she replied giving him a smile.

He was about to respond when his phone began to vibrate. He already knew who it was and stood up. He walked toward the door but Anzu stopped him.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

He walked back over to the bed and kissed her. He pulled back and placed his forehead on hers.

"I have to finish something...I will be right back." He got up and headed for the door.

"I know where you're going....be careful" she whispered but he could still hear her.

"This won't take long" he reassured her.

Kaiba walked to a secret location where his guards told him where they were. There, sitting in a chair beaten and tied up, was the reason his wife and child were in the hospital. The mere sight of him made his blood boil.

"Ah Mr. Kaiba I am so sorry for your loss. I give you my condolences." He smirked

"Bastard. My wife and child are completely healthy. You're going to get what's coming to you. Unfortunately, I am not going to kill you. I am allowing you to keep your life for two reasons; one I want you to suffer, and two an example. You are going to be living proof of what happens to people who cross Seto Kaiba." Kaiba stated harshly.

"Sir what would like us to do?" one of the guards asked

"I don't give a damn what you do...just don't kill him. Get creative. Oh and Takanaka it would be useless for you to go to the police. What evidence do you possibly have against me? I, on the other hand have enough on you to make you disappear" he smirked

"You bastard. That kid is gonna die along with that slut you call a wife"

Kaiba hit him so hard that the impact injured his own hand.

"Get rid of him...make sure that no one recognizes him."

"Yes sir"

Kaiba made his way back to the hospital and into Anzu's room.

"I told you I would be right back" he sat down next to her.

"Seto what happened to your hand?!" she took his hand in her own causing him to wince.

"I punched a wall...it just needs ice, I will be fine. So are you ready to go home?"

"Yea but can you do something for me?"

"Name it"

"Take me to get a milkshake?"

To be continued

*Okay...the baby and Anzu are completely fine! I would never harm a child. I couldn't really figure out what to do with Takanaka so I leave it to your imaginations. Once again reviews are greatly appreciated and please no flames* CHAPTER 11 COMING SOON.
