The bell run. It was lunch time, but Seto hasn't hungry for the past few days. As students left the class, a male student slammed a piece of paper on Seto's desk. He ran off laughing with a few other students. It was a drawing of Seto and a pregnant Téa at a wedding alter. The priest is dressed as a 'blue eyes white dragon'. There was an arrow behind Téa, displaying the words "Bride's Train" and an arrow behind Seto displaying the words "Groom's Train". In comparision, Seto's groom train was far longer than the bride's train. Seto growled as he crumpled up the sheet of paper.
Seto was leaning against a fence. He seemed bored. All of a sudden, a fat middle school student is seen running past him on the other side of the fence. He sighed as his eyes followed the boy, then his eyes looked back from where the boy came.
"Sorry, about being late," Mokuba said as he started walking up to the fence.
Seto looked away, "I told you how to win that fight."
Mokuba looked up at him with fierce eyes. The body language looked familiar. He grabbed the fence and gave it a firm shake, "I know how to fight, Seto!"
Seto shot the exact same glance back, "If you knew how to fight, you would've been able to end it with one hit! He wasn't worth your time. You should have at least held him in a painful lock."
"I enjoy a challenge."
Seto relaxed and folded his arms as he leaned back against the fence, "If you give yourself too high of a handicap, you can lose in a blink of an eye. I don't understand why you toy with your enemies. That's more Gazaboro's style, don't you think?"
"..."
"Now, what's the news?"
Mokuba relaxed and leaned back against the fence and closed his eyes, "Your request about firing Miss Medusa was denied."
Seto turned his head, "What! Miss Lynn Medusa?"
Mokuba turned and looked up at him, "Yeah. Rumor has it that she challenged your complaint right away. She knew that you had a pattern of not showing up for any classes, after you make a complaint against a teacher. So, your school temporarily placed her in my school, during the last week, while they kept checking your attendence record. She's been teaching your class, again, since this Monday."
Seto let out an angry huff, "Never mind that. I'll deal with her later. What else did you find out?"
"People are putting down money bets that they can be the first to provide evidence of who Yugi's parents are."
"Hmm... Any other news?"
"Some blonde female duelest, yesterday was wondering around your school. When someone asked her a question, she ran off."
"Mai Valentine?" Mokuba shrugged. "What else?"
"Your classmate, Ryuji Yamazaki ate a bug on a dare."
"How is THAT any news?"
Mokuba lit up, "It was how he ate it! Some girl called him 'bug eater', so he picked up a bug and picked her off the ground with his other hand. Then, he put the bug in his mouth and snorted it-."
"STOP!" Mokuba seemed disappointed in not getting to tell the rest of the story. "What else?"
"..."
"That just can't be all of the news, Mokuba."
"A hot rumor's been flying around that you broke up with Téa." Mokuba turned around and looked up at Seto. He had a concerned look on his face, "Were you dating Téa?"
"That rumor doesn't matter, Mokuba."
"Yeah, it does. It's just me, honorable big-brother. And, Téa's...Téa's BEAUTIFUL. She's not dating anyone... I think you should ask her out, but she hasn't been in school, lately. No one's seen her in days. They say that she's been crying so much that eventually she collasped and had to be sent home from dehydration. No one's seen her since last week."
"You should ask her friends about that, instead of listening to those stories. Maybe, Miho Nosaka?"
Mokuba rolled his eyes, "Why don't YOU ask her friends? I thought at least half of them were in your class with Miss Medusa. Or better yet, CALL HER."
"Just do it, Mokuba," Seto said as he started to march back to the school.
