Next chapter to this story! I've finished going through the Shadi part. I still have Death T to cover and it's going to be a while before it ever comes around. Death T will be done differently compared to the original Death T tournament in the original. Review please!
The limo stopped at the Kaiba Mansion in the middle of the dark night. It was passed ten-o-clock and Seto and Yugi were just returning home from work. On the positive side, Seto did manage to get his work done before closing time. Him and Yugi were still preparing Kaiba Land before starting on the building process. There was also buying the property and making the design. There was still alot to get done and money to be made.
The driver opened the door and Yugi was the first to exit, followed by his brother and Mai, who wore her usual Kaiba Corp. uniform. She didn't mind working late, since she mostly lived on her own in a small apartment. Sometimes she would pick up some food, dry cleaning, or other items for her boss. She was also in charge of his scheduled. It was no big deal for Mai, since she made her money from working for Yugi.
The trio entered into the mansion, then Seto set his brief case next to the couch before sitting himself down. Mai placed the laptop bag inside Yugi's room while Yugi set some paperwork on the coffee table. Mai was found walking down the steps to where Yugi was found sitting on the couch. She gave Yugi his cell phone.
"I believe you received a call from Tea Garner at 7:25!" Mai informed.
"Thank you!" Yugi said, nodding his head. He flipped his cell phone and began texting. "I'll text her, since it's so late at night. If she's still up, she can call me."
"She's a nice catch! You should send her flowers or chocolates through the mail!"
"I don't want her to see that I'm rich and bringing flowers when meeting her at the door seems too cliché. I might consider treating her to a movie."
"Aren't you romantic," Seto muttered sarcastically.
"At least I'll be the first one to get laid," Yugi said as Seto rolled his eyes. He turned to Mai's direction. "You have my schedule right?"
"Right here!" Mai replied with a short smile.
"Seto, I'm going to be bringing some family tomorrow!" Yugi informed Seto as he turned his head, facing Yugi with two raised eyebrows. "They're our long lost family from our mother's side. I found out Solomon and Mokuba Moto, from the Turtle Game Shop, are our relatives. Solomon, our grandpa, believed that we died along with our parents due to our Aunt Echidna's deceiving lie."
"Figures!" Seto spat, seemingly very angry. Mai held no emotion, but deep inside, she felt sorry for Yugi and Seto.
"You also have a little brother, Mokuba."
"What is he like?"
"From what I can see, he's a Capsule Monsters player. He loves games as much as we do."
"Interesting."
"Think you can schedule tomorrow?"
"I'll squeeze in four-o-clock. We'll have an hour."
"Good. Tea and I will have our movie night the day after tomorrow," Yugi said, then checked to make sure Mai was writing all this down. "You got it down?"
"Every bit of it!" Mai winked.
"Good. You're done for the night. Thank you," Yugi said as Mai nodded, then laid the papers down on the coffee table before leaving out the door.
"Run into more strange events?" Seto asked with furrowed eyebrows. He was aware that since Yugi had been possessed by whoever was inside the puzzle, he would have recent blackouts and find himself in weird places.
"A man trying to trespass into my soul room or mind room. Other than that..."
"If you keep that thing with you any longer, you will find yourself in an insane asylum in an instant!" Seto glared with folded arms.
"I'm not going to an insane asylum! We're keeping this weirdness to ourselves! That doesn't mean I'm not gonna be finding out more about whoever the freak is possessing me!"
"What are you gonna do about him?"
"I'm gonna find a way to get him out of me and crossover to the afterlife or wherever the dead goes!"
"If you know how! I would be breaking that thing!"
"That thing is the only possession I have from my parents! It was this thing that helped me find our long lost relatives!"
"Great, let's give it a gold star! Yugi, that puzzle is going to give you nothing, but trouble!"
"You let that be my business!" Yugi snapped before marching upstairs. "Goodnight!"
Seto sighed, and then got himself ready for bed.
The next day at school, Yugi hung out with his friends and scheduled his date with Tea. Everyone also seemed to be getting hooked on digital pets. Yugi found this very childish, despite Tea having a digital pet of her own. As much as Yugi loved games, he never considered a digital pet a game; more like a pet parents buy for their kids, so they don't have to babysit a real live pet. Yugi felt if wished to have a pet, he would've bought a dog.
"Hey guys, check out my pet!" Joey called out. Tea, Tristan, and Yugi gathered around to see Joey's digital pet. Yugi snorted with a half smirk.
"Looks like an angry radish," Yugi teased.
"You should get a digital pet of your own!"
"I'll pass."
"What about you, Tristan?"
"I've already got a dog at home! It's already bad enough taking care of a real pet!" Tristan replied, then a blush came on his cheeks. "Especially since she's been in the heat lately."
"How many dogs has the bitch been humped by?" Yugi asked teasingly as Tristan shot him a glare. "Co'mon dude, I'm just messing with ya!"
"Hey, you wanna see my pet?" A fat pudgy kid asked with a huge grin on his face that would make little kids scream. Yugi's eyes widened at the size of the guy. "It's more superior than all of your pets!"
"Including Tristan's dog? I find that hard to believe!" Yugi smirked.
"Whatever! You wanna see my pet or what?"
"No thanks! Seeing Joey's pet looks like a radish, yours will look more like a kid's balloon from a circus with a star in the middle!"
"HOW'D YOU KNOW?"
"Wait, that's what it really looks like?" Yugi asked with widened eyes as his friends chuckled in the background. "Wow, what kind of ideas of pets do these designers pull out of their asses? Joey's looks like a radish, Tea's looks like a plum, and yours looks like a circus balloon. I think Tristan's dog wins."
"Hey, they're great pets!" the kid glared, picking Yugi up by the collar with one full hand.
"Sure, I'll make sure to adopt the Annoying Orange along the way."
"You're gonna pay for-"
"Class is starting in five minutes," Yugi said with a bored look on his face before the fat guy placed him down and return to his seat. "Nerd."
"You're gonna get yourself in trouble, Yugi!" Tea said worriedly.
"I'm not afraid of him! He's just a big ol' coward! I don't see him as much of a challenge," Yugi assured with a half smirk.
"That's what I'm afraid of."
"I'm sure Yugi can take care of himself!" Joey reassured Tea with a huge smile on his face. "Anyways, how about we have our pets mate?"
"Sure, why not?" Tea shrugged, then took Joey's digital pet. "Let's mate!"
"Tea, how could you do this to me? After all we've been through!" Yugi teased with a fake glare as Tea rolled her eyes.
"Shut up!" Tea replied.
"B-But Tea... you were my love! My only-" Yugi said in a fake weeping voice and big rounded eyes before Tea playfully pushed him. She couldn't help, but laugh.
"Are you trying to win an Oscar?"
"Maybe," Yugi grinned playfully before Tea kissed him on the cheek.
"There's your Oscar."
"Hey, do that again with those eyes!" Joey said with a hint of excitement as Yugi displayed his fake weeping gesture with the huge puppy-dog eyes. "Wow, you're good! You could have me fooled!"
"Then, I should do it often," Yugi teased before the bell rang.
