Me: Yello!
Bakura: Hello again...
Ryou u-uh, hello.
Me: Are you still nervous over what happened last chapter, Ryou? *smiles slyly*
Ryou: EH? N-no!
Bakura: *stand there and looks on*
Me: I think you liked it.
Ryou: I plead the fifth! *faints*
Me: ... Is that his defense mechanism or something? Fainting, that is.
Bakura: we don't own YGO.
Seto walked down the hallway of his house, his feet thudding lightly against the carpet. His head swiveled from side to side as he looked for Mokuba. The younger boy had been missing all day.
"Mokuba?" He called. Coming to his little brother's room, he knocked on the door.
"You in there?" There was a muffled reply. "I'm coming in." Seto announced, then opened the door a few moments later.
Seto stopped when he saw the mess that was Mokuba's usually neat room. It looked as though a circus had gone through, accompanied by a tornado and several deranged fangirls.
"Um... Mokuba?" Seto looked around before spotting Mokuba frantically searching the closet. "Mokuba, you're usually such a neat freak, what's going on?"
"I can't find it!" Mokuba shouted frantically, not even bothering to look up at his brother.
"Can't find what?" Seto asked, leaning against the door frame as Mokuba continued to root through the closet.
"I can't find it, where the hell is it?" Mokuba exclaimed. Seto slowly blinked. This was probably the first time the boy had sworn, at least in front of Seto anyways. Whatever he lost must be really important.
"Mokuba, what did you lose?" Seto asked.
"The locket, I can't find the locket!" Mokuba shouted, before sitting heavily on the floor and sniffling. He looked liked he was on he verge of tears.
"I went to sleep with it on last night, like always, but when I woke up it was gone!" Mokuba said, looking down. Seto sat beside his brother., placing a comforting hand on the small boy's shoulders.
"Hey, it's okay." Seto said quietly.
"No it's not! It is not okay, that locket was my prized possession!" Mokuba exclaimed, desperately holding back tears.
Seto looked down at his little brother, opening his mouth to say something when he saw a tangled up knot of hair on Mokuba's still un-brushed head.
Reaching over he gently reached over to try and untangle it, before noticing something.
"Mokuba?" Seto smothered a laugh.
"Yeah?" Mokuba asked dejectedly.
"I found it."
"What?"
"I found the locket."
"What? Where?" Mokuba asked, looking up in surprise.
Seto pulled the lock of hair around so Mokuba could see it. Tangled up in the ebony hair was the locket, the string knotted up around the strands.
"Ah! You found it!" Mokuba said, his face lighting up. Seto chuckled.
"C'mon, let's get this out of your hair and clean your room."

Bakura: Lilac is having a hard time coming up with more ideas... she asked for your help, but I command it.
Me: yeah, what he said!
