Have you ever heard a song called Concrete Angel? I love the song but the music video is sad. I think you should hear it. Great chap and update soon.

After he has went to his brother's car to get the briefcase full of clothing, Mokuba is talking to Charles Lally, his bodyguard, in front of an arcade table.

"Master Kaiba, you have to understand what your older brother is going through." Charles explains to Mokuba in a dull, business-like way. "It's a difficult time for both you and him, isn't it?" I feel so sympathetic towards them. They had so many things taken away from them by force that Kaiba doesn't know who to trust anymore. He barely trust me to watch his younger brother...then again, this feeling of untrustfulness is just. Kaiba had so many promises turn to meaningless lies. I HATE this time of year...everyone around Kaiba and Mokuba are happy but to them, it's a time of sadness and mourning...hoping for a better tomorrow that will never happen...

Charles is an averaged size, twenty-five year old man who has yet to find the maiden in need of a man in shining armor to take her away from the evil step-mother. He has dark black hair and light blue eyes that seem to look the slightest of white when one looks at them deeply for a moment or two. When he was younger, his aunt and uncle died tragically during a bank robbery and as a result, left him with the wanting to protect someone who is unable to protect themselves from the evils of society. When he found out three years ago that the Seto Kaiba needed a new body guard to protect his younger brother, he was the first one to even be considered as a "perfect" applicant. It took a while for the decision to be made but eventually, Kaiba had hired him. Of course, after many drug tests and background checks did Kaiba somewhat trust Mokuba's life into a human that he barley knows. The best thing that came out of hiring Charles is that he teaches Mokuba when it comes to self defense and law, and because of him, Mokuba now knows how to shoot a gun and put someone in the sleeper position. Besides for all of that, many think that he is a strict bodyguard, just like all of the others, but in reality, he can switch from being your best friend to being your worst nightmare.

"Yes it is." Mokuba answers gloomfully as a tear falls down from his face. "I wish I was never born...maybe then they would still be alive today. And Seto...Seto would be happy." That's the only thing that I have wanted for the longest time...his happiness. Mother died because of me and father killed himself because of her untimely Death...if it wasn't for me, mom wouldn't have died from me being in her fallopian tubes and dad wouldn't have purposely drove his car into that tree...I killed his happiness...its like I grabbed his heart from his chest and squeezed it until all the blood was drained from it...

"You shouldn't wish that." Charles looks straight ahead at the bathroom door and thw gathering spectators looking stupidly at it. "Otherwise it might happen when you experience true happiness for the fisrt time." Just like him...at least it looked like it when I saw him after he got out of school..."Besides, Mr. Kaiba is happy." He looks back at a crossed-arm, not-believing-it-for-all-the-money-in-the-world Mokuba. "Well, at least in his own, special way. You of all people should know that by now." Maybe I should have a talk with Mr. Kaiba about how his negative attitude is affecting his younger brother's view on life..."He loves you and I know that if something bad would happen to you, he couldn't live with himself." Charles says in an attempt to comfort Mokuba's unsure feelings.

"Well, if he loves me, then why doesn't he show it more? He's always so mean and cold to me, especially when we are at home...how can he possibly care about me so much!? I don't get it! I mean...sure I love him a lot but that's the part that confuses me!" Mokuba hysterically responds. What's wrong witrh me?! I usually never talk like this when I talk to someone about Seto...especially if it's an employee or an over-obsessed fan girl! Mybe I just bottled it up so long that I justt of exploded...

"Mr. Kaiba, you know, just shows his affection towards you in a different-er uh- manner. But even that's no excuse for being an as-" Charles cuts off remembering that he's talking to the younger Kaiba. "being mean to you." That was a close one! If I had said that his older brother is an asshole and Mokuba told him, Mr. Kaiba would fire me for sure! Charles looks at the shiny silver briefacse in Mokuba's eleven year old hands and remembers what they were originally supposed to be doing. "We better get that briefcase to your brother before he gets angry." Personally I have never been yelled at him before but form what I have heard, you can go death because of his loud voice...

"That's true. Wouldn't want you to lose your job because of our idle talking." Mokuba says trying to get into a better mood before he sees his bloody brother. I wonder just how bad he looks...Serenity said that he had blood on him but I wonder...just how much. Is it like he's a bloody abominable snowman or is it just a little spot on his shirt?

The mid-twenty year old looks at Mokuba carrying the briefcase just as he remebers his job and position. Suprised that Mokuba has yet to complain about its weight, he decides to take it from him anyways.

"Let me carry that briefcase for you." Charles says as he reaches his hand out for Mokuba to hand the shiny object to him. If Mr. Kaiba sees that his younger brother is the one that has been carrying this briefcase, he'll yell at me and then fire me!!

"Don't worry, I won't tell my big bro that I was carrying that briefcase for the longesttime." Mokuba looks all sweet and innocent as he hands the briefcase to his bodyguard.

At the exact second that the bodyguard finally touches the handle of the briefcase, Mokuba turns his head as he hears the faintest but most recognizable voice in the world. Wondering if he's right, he turns his head to the left to see whose face matches the voice.

Hey it's..."Yugi! Hey Yugi over here!" What a 'coensidence' that I went here today with Kaiba the same day that Yugi comes here every week...shoot! I forgot that big bro told me to make sure that none of Joey's friends found out about or saw him and Serenity together! Then again, what do I care? I'm not the one that Joey's going to kill.

Mokuba starts to and continues to wave his arms in the air in order to get Yugi's attention but is immediately stopped by Charles as he tightly grabs on to Mokuba's wrists. As he remembers his own strength because of Mokuba's tearing eyes and winces, he releases Mokuba wrists and loosely grabs higher up one his arm.

"Mokuba, no! We can'tstart up another conversation now." Mokuba squirms out of Charles's grip. "Besides, your older brother told me to make sure that you don't talk to this 'Yugi Mutou character.'" Come on Mokuba! We wasted too much time as it is with our idle chit-chatting. Both of us have to get this briefcase to Mr. Kaiba before he breaks me in half for allowing you to talk to him!

"So...there are a lot of things that he tells me not to do and guess what, not surprisingly, I don't listen to him and I do it any ways!" Mokuba looks back at Charles as he continues. "Only one of us really has to go and give him that briefcase and since you'remy puppet, I, as the puppet master, order you to give that briefcase to him." Mokuba crosses his arms ans sticks his tongue out. Ha ha! He has no choice now but to listen to me!"Now I'm going to talk to Yugi, whether Seto likes it or not, and you are going to give that to Seto."

Mokuba turns around and starts to walk over to Yugi not knowing that on the other side of the fake slot machine, there's one of the two guys who are thrilled yet somehow disappointed that Kaiba is 'dead'. Before he is unable to take five steps and unveil this important piece of information, he is grabbed hastily by a huge, strong hand belonging to Charles. Mokuba tires to take another step but is unable to escape the inhuman grasp of his puppet. As the puppet master tries to squirm out of his grasp like he did before, the puppet takes control and starts to pull his master away from Yugi.

"You're coming with me and that's that!" Charles continues to drag Mokuba. "It's my job to protect you and if Mr. Kaiba finds out that I disobeyed two of his orders, he'll have my head and place it over his fire mantel like it was some kind of deer head." He decides to stop dragging Mokuba as some people begin to look towards this messed up scene. As he is still holding onto the younger Kaiba's shoulder, he asks "Now, can I trust you to stand by my side like a big boy or do I have to keep dragging you like your a little five year old?" Stupid people...always looking at us like we're the animals at the zoo. Always taking pictures whenever we do something 'bad' or 'immoral'...maybe that's what set Mr. Kaiba of before...maybe he saw somebody taking pictures of him on his date with Serenity...

"I'll be a big boy..." Mokuba says relucantly as he looks at his bodyguard like a sweet, innocent child does when he or she wants a really expensive toy that they probably already have. "I promise." I guess I'll have to catch up with Yugi later...and this was the first time I have seen him in months, too!

"Good. Maybe now they'll stop looking at us like I'm hurting you or something." Charles releases his grasp on Mokuba as he sighs. "Now let's go and get this to your older brother before he gets really mad at us." He says dully. I would hate it if this is the first time that he ever yells at me! Heck, last night one of the maids got fired for just looking at him funny!

Charles starts to walk away as Mokuba pauses to look once more at Yugi for a moment. As he turns to look back at Charles, he realizes that his puppet is no longer at his side. Mokuba then panics to find him, thinking that he is once again playing a weird joke on him. Another moment passes before Mokuba finally sees his bodyguard close to the small crowd by the bathroom. Mokuba then speed walks in order to catch up to him that way Charles doesn't has to wait for him at the entrnace of the bathroom door that Serenity and Seto are locked all alone in.

"Hey!" Mokuba shouts as he speed walks. "Wait for me!" Great! Now I'll neverget to talk to Yugi! And worst of all, if Seto finds out that I tired to talk to 'the scum of the earth', he'll yell at me or ground me from going to Maui this weekend! Or both! I just really hope that its one or the other! I HATE it when its both!
