Seto was in New Zealand on business. He was alone these time because Ishizu didn't feel comfortable flying when she was due any day now. He was glad that it was almost time. He was overjoyed that there would be a new addition to his family and that his wife wouldn't resemble a watermelon. Kaiba sat in his office eating his lunch…it wasn't all that great. He ordered out and was regretting that. On his computer he looked up the distance between New Zealand and California. He was starving for sushi that wasn't gross. He just got to New Zealand and was dieing to go home already. Kaiba called his New Zealand secretary, "Hello."
"I'm going out for a while hold all my calls that aren't from my family. And if they calls transfer them over to my jet. Got that."
"Yes sir." She said all bubbly since it was her first day.
Going up on the roof of the 76 story corporation and boarded his BEWD jet. No sooner had he done this Roland came running, "Mr. Kaiba you have a press conference in an hour! Where are you going!"
"What conference?"
"Your twenty new parks and the two new ones here. Also there's hundreds of places to eat here!"
"The stuff here sucks."
"Why Why does it suck."
"Lets just say if I wanted to eat my boot I would." with that Kaiba started the engine and got ready to take off.
"Mr. Kaiba you have to be back here in 30 minutes!"
"Yeah Yeah."
Meanwhile in Japan……Jade put an ear to her mommy's belly, "I can feel her moving!" Jade shouted excitedly, "Is it coming soon."
"She's not an it sweetie."
"How do you know it's not a boy. Boys are gross."
"I have my way's knowing the future. " Ishizu said, "Are you ready for lunch?"
"…Lunch? But we had breakfast an hour ago."
"Hello I eating for too!"
"We is daddy coming home?"
"In three days." She said as she worked down the stair with her daughter, "Where do you want to go eat."
"Let's go get Cleo!" Jade said and pulled on her mother's hand.
"Not a bad idea. I haven't seen my brother or Serenity in some time."
"Yeah. Don't you have catching up to do?"
"I suppose. There's always something going on with Marik and Serenity."
Since Ishizu felt uncomfortable driving, Roland's son ,Parker, drove them. Jade liked Parker and called him Jeeves most of the time. Arriving at the high raise penthouse, Ishizu and Jade hopped on to the elevator and went up the very top floor. Once they were on there Ishizu smelled something that gave her a serious craving her.
"What is that? It's smelled so good." Knocking on the door Cleo was the one that answered, "Hi baby girl." Cleo hugged Ishizu around the knees and smiled.
"I'm so glad you guys came over today." She said and ran into the kitchen to get who ever.
Serenity came out and to everyone's surprise her long hair was blonde, "Serenity!" I love what you've do with you're hair."
"I lost a bet." She said and crossed her arms, "You'd never guess to who-"
"Me." Cleo said and gave her notorious grin.
"H-how….you know what I don't even want to know. It's not permanent is it?"
"Hope not I don't like blondes." Marik said.
"But you're blonde!" Serenity said
"What you didn't know that?" Marik said teasingly .
"I honestly didn't."
"I kinda like it." Ishizu said.
"It's does nothing for you." Marik told her and then turned to his, "You're obviously here to get something to eat." Marik said and glance down at his sister's stomach.
"If your going to feed me….Get me whatever you just made."
"Are you sure? It might be too spicy for ya?" Marik said, "And your growing baby may not appreciate it."
"We both love spicy food. Now go get it." Ishizu said. Marik left to go get his sister a plate. Serenity looked at Ishizu belly, "What?"
"Though you're like….suppose to give birth any day now. But you like great."
"Thank you Serenity." Ishizu said and sat down on a bar stool, "Tell me how are you and Marik doing?"
"We're fine really. We just have to get our schedules to work."
"I hope it works out." Ishizu said as Marik handle out a plate of spicy food. Ishizu ate it as though it was nothing, "That was great!"
"I'm glad you liked it sister."
"What's are your plans for tonight?" Serenity asked
"I don't know…I don't like going anywhere with out Seto."
"Where is he coming back anyway?" Marik asked as he put of things away, "Don't you think he stays away to often? You're not that hard of a person to live with."
"He's a CEO. What do you expect? Him not to travel around?" She said.
"How come when I go somewhere you track me down and crap?"
"Because you're my brother and he's my husband."
"True. But you don't have to worry about me finding a new wife. Since I'm married to you."
"If I wasn't pregnant and in the mist of children. I hurt you for saying that." Ishizu stood and looked over at Jade and Cleo, "Do you think they favor one an other?"
Serenity looked at the two girls, "Not partially but you can their cousins." Cleo suddenly jumped up from the carpet and pulled Jade up with her, "What's wrong Cleo?"
"I just remembered something! Jade I have to show you something."
"What?" Jade asked
"It's in my parents room."
"You two share a room?" Ishizu said shocked.
"Every since I moved in." Serenity said running her fingers through Marik's hair.
"Despite the fact you have your own room."
"But your bed is so much warmer. " Serenity said and got closer to him.
"SERENITY!" Marik shouted.
Ishizu was embarrassed for her brother, but she was guilty on extreme PDA. Which she had to minimize since it ended up the front page of every newspaper, magazine and tabloid. Unlike Seto and herself, Serenity didn't have to minimize her affection towards Marik. While Serenity continued to try and kiss Marik, Ishizu went to see what Cleo and Jade were up too.
Once in the back room Ishizu saw Cleo showing Jade gold jewel, "It's so cool." Jade reached into the ancient Egyptian chest and pulled out an ankh., "I saw this once!" Jade jumped up and went back into the living room. Marik and Serenity were now standing and he was holding her at a distance.
"Serenity stop it."
"Come on Marik. I want to have another!"
Without warning cold hands touched Marik's back, "What the heck!" Marik spun around and saw Jade standing a chair, "What are you doing."
"Your tattoo!" Jade said holding up the ankh, "It has this on it."
"Yeah."
"Let me see!" Jade said. Ishizu took Jade off the chair.
"Me too." Serenity said. Marik turned to face her. Cleo joined them in the room. She dhad seen her dad's tattoo many times so she didn't see way here cousin or mom wanted to see it. Especially her mom.
"Jade I'll saw you a picture of you Uncles 'tattoo' later." Ishizu told her, "But now it's time to go."
"Can Cleo come?" Jade asked.
"Can she?" Ishizu said with an Ishtar signature smirk, "You two are going to be much to busy to watch her."
"Could you take her for the afternoon?" Serenity said holding on to Marik tightly.
"It would be best." Ishizu said and told the girls to get the shoes on. After they did the three left.
Serenity held onto Marik despite his struggle to get away from her, "Come on Marik. Lets have an other baby!"
"NO! NO! NO! NO!"
"Yes. Yes Yes." Serenity jumped on his back
"Serenity get off my back!" Marik said as he walked into his bed room, "I don't have time you mess with you."
"We have five hours before you have to go to work. That's plenty." she said and kissed his neck. Marik appeared to be considering it, Serenity got off his back, "Well?"
"It seems that we have time." Marik said hugging her waist. She laid down with him as they kissed. Everything was getting so heated and passionate Serenity did notice herself being handcuffed to the headboard. Marik got off the bed and left.
"Marik?" She called, and he didn't reply, "Marik? Marik don't leave me like these! Again!" Marik came back and looked at her with a smile.
"You're so cute when you're scared." Marik kissed and her left, "I'll be back at 10pm. See ya then."
"You're going to play for this." Serenity thought a loud.
The next day Serenity awake warm and toasty. She realized she wasn't handcuffed anymore. Marik and Cleo were laying beside her. Looking at the clock it was 8am. Marik woke up when Serenity moved,
"Good morning." He said and went into the bathroom. Serenity followed him, "I have a feeling you're mad at me."
"You owe me, Marik."
"What do I owe?"
"A shower and breakfast." she said and turned on the shower.
Else where.
Kaiba arrived home. Much sooner than he even expected. Entering the mansion he was greeted by the morning maids and butler. Heading up to his room he made a quick stop by his office to check his personal email. Filtering out the junk mail and came to an interesting email from Pegasus.
"I can't help but worried what he wants." He thought and clicked on it. It read:
You're invited to a Masquerade Ball
October the 31st 6pm-6am
Costume required
(That's right Kaiba-boy)
"A masquerade ball. Seems like fun." He said. Seto left his office went to his bedroom. Ishizu was sleeping peaceful breathing deeply. Kissing her on the forehead Kaiba left to take a shower.
Ishizu had awaken from her nap, while Seto was showering. She hadn't realized that he was home. So she left, to visit Tea. Ishizu was determined to drive herself so she bypassed all of the driver and slipped into the garage. Getting the set of the keys for the PT cruiser and drove off. It was a spacey car so it was prefect for her to drive in her current state.
Kaiba got out of his long hot shower and saw Ishizu was gone. He didn't think anything of it. Since she was going to pop any day now and what kind of trouble could she get into? Kaiba frowned, "She's gotten into a lot of odd situation lately. I should go look for her." Quickly getting dressed quickly. He went to Jade's room. And to she surprise found not only his daughter but Rebecca.
"Hey Kaiba!" Rebecca said as she first braiding Jade's hair, "You're like home a lot sooner than I would have thought. You look nice. Are you and Ishizu going out?"
"If I could find her it'll be a possibly."
"She went to visit Tea." Rebecca said, and tied two red ribbon on Jade's pig tails, "If you're going over there. Could you give me a left to the Beach House. Mokuba and I are going to stay there tonight."
"Uh huh." Kaiba motioned for them to come on, Jade grabbed on to his hand and he picked her up, "Why are you and Mokuba staying at the beach house rather than here?"
"…Oh well. You guys need your space?"
"Space?" Kaiba looked at her and smiled, "I understand."
"…."Rebecca blushed and hurry down the stairs to get her jacket and purse.
"Roland, which driver took Ishizu to Tea's house?"
"She's not here."
"Obviously not." Kaiba said.
"Well…uh… well….She's must have taken one of the cars."
"Which one?"
"I'll go see." Roland ran into the garage and came back, "The PT is gone."
"The new one?"
"Yes."
"…..You said she was going to Tea's." Kaiba asked Rebecca.
"Yeah."
"Come on." Kaiba said and rushed off. They all got into a sliver Bentley and speed off to Tea's house.
Meanwhile Ishizu was pulled over off swerving slightly. She then remembered that she didn't have her purse, which had her ID and license in it. She the police officer asked her to get out of the vehicle.
"Now Miss do you have any weapons on you or the in vehicle?" He said.
"No. And I doubt there's anything in the car."
"This is you're husbands car?"
"Yes." Ishizu said and sat on the hood of the car. While the officer searched the car.
"Miss there was a shot gun in the glover department and I found the ownership papers."
"So can you let me. Go now." Ishizu said, "You wouldn't arrest a pregnant woman would you."
"Well Miss you don't have any proof of who are. So until I can get proof I'm going to have to take you down to the station."
"You can't be serious!" Ishizu got off the hood.
"I'm sorry Miss."
"Fine. But can I sit in the front. I need the extra space."
"Well….I don't think."
"Listen I'm cooperating with you. To make this easy on you. Since my husband won't be…at all." Ishizu said.
"Miss-"
"Stop calling me Miss!"
"Well Miss….Uh."
"What's going on!" Kaiba shouted.
Ishizu and the officer jumped, "Seto what are you doing back….so early?"
"I got things straightened out sooner than I thought." Kaiba glared at the officer, "What are you doing?"
"I…I uh."
"Why was my wife pulled over?"
"She was swerving-"
"Is that it?"
"She didn't have any form of ID on her. I hadn't realized that she was who she is."
"It wasn't obvious to you?"
"No sir."
"How old are you?"
"19 sir."
"Name?"
"Jun."
"Okay, Jun if you don't want to get black listed. You'll be on you're way."
"I'm sorry Mr. Kaiba sir." Officer Jun handed the shotgun to him and ran to her patrol car and speed off.
"Are you alright!" Seto asked Ishizu.
"You scared me." She said looking at him in amazement, "I haven't seen you act like that in years!"
"I'm sorry you had to see that, darling." he said and kissed her. Rebecca got out the Bentley and went over to the two, "Rebecca, you can take the PT to the Beach house. You can keep it if you want."
"Are you serious?" Rebecca said.
Kaiba looked at her widen eyed, as though she just got the answer to 1+1 wrong, "Yeah, I'm serious."
"Thanks."
