Hushpuppy24: Here's a quick recap of what happened. Téa had just left the library when she bumped into a stranger. Now, that stranger is doing something to her, but we don't know what. Back at the Kaiba brother's mansion, Seto busily searched for his card key to Kaiba Corp. Realizing later that he must've left it at the library, he raced down the streets when he heard screams coming from ahead. Suddenly it stopped.
We now continue with our story...
Chapter 2
******************
'Was that Téa?' Seto wondered. 'It doesn't matter...It's none of my business in the first place.' He continued to run down the streets, but when he turned the corner, he noticed 3 thugs crowding around someone. He looked a little closer. It was Téa! She was badly bruised and had several cuts on her. Her face seemed drained of energy and her clothes were worn and tattered. Seto turned away and tried to ignore it, but then another piercing scream cried out, stopping Kaiba in his tracks. 'She may be a friend of Yugi Motou's, but she did save me from killing myself at the Duelist Kingdom.'
* Flashback *
I had sworn I'd jump off the cliff if Yugi were to destroy my Ultimate Blue Eyes White Dragon. I was standing right at the edge. I had no fear of falling, just losing my brother, Mokuba's soul forever. Yugi was about to end the duel with his Celtic Guardian when Téa called out for him to stop as tears streamed down her face. I wiped out Yugi's remaining life points quickly, only thinking about saving my brother. I was quite satisfied with my victory, but Téa's words spoken to me before I entered the castle stayed with me this whole time.
* End flashback *
'If it wasn't for her stopping Yugi in time, I would've done something really stupid...and it wouldn't have helped Mokuba out either...' Kaiba thought hard and finally decided to save Téa, as a 'thank you' for saving him.
He approached the men slowly. The biggest of the three men spotted Kaiba first. "Well look at what we got here? Another victim for us to beat up!"
"Let the girl go now you thugs!" Kaiba demanded.
Téa slowly lifted her head up and whispered, "Kaiba?" Her vision went blurry as she slowly fell into unconsciousness.
******************
The next morning, Téa found herself in a cozy bed inside a large room. The bed was queen-sized and a mirror hung on the wall beside the bed. Fresh flowers were placed in a vase on the dresser next to her bed. The lace curtains were opened to a magnificent view of the city below. A watercolor painting of Seto and Mokuba together hung on the opposite wall of her bed and a shelf of books stood underneath the painting.
Téa tried to get up, but her wounds caused her so much pain that she collapsed back onto the bed. She noticed her wounds from last night had been bandaged, but she was still in her tattered clothing. 'What happened? Where am I? How did I get here?' Téa wondered. Her stream of thoughts was then interrupted by a knock on the door. "Come in." She called out weakly. Mokuba stepped inside her room.
"How are you feeling today?" He asked.
"I'm fine, thanks." Téa said with a smile. "Where am I?"
"You're at our mansion. Seto brought you home last night. I saw him bandaging up your wounds late last night when I went to get a late night snack." Mokuba informed. "What happened?"
"I don't know...I only remember leaving the library and bumping into a stranger. They started beating me up...and the rest is all a blur. The last image I saw was your brother..."
"Well I hope you get better soon."
"Thanks. Oh!" Téa reached into her pocket and took out a card. "Here." She handed it to Mokuba. "I found this at the library. I think it belongs to your brother. Please give it back to him for me and tell him I said thanks, for saving me."
Mokuba took the card and said, "Ok," as he left the room and closed the door. Téa watched as Mokuba disappeared from her view and slowly drifted back to sleep.
******************
Mokuba walked down the hall and knocked on Seto's study door. "Big brother, may I come in?" He asked politely.
"Sure." Seto said in a monotonous voice.
"Téa told me to give you this." Mokuba handed his big brother the card Téa gave him. "She said it belonged to you. She also asked me to thank you for saving her."
Seto took one look at the card and thought to himself, 'so she had it the whole time...' as he slowly began to run through the events of last night...
* Flashback *
"Let the girl go now you thugs!" Kaiba demanded.
"Are you lookin' for a fight or what?" The man asked. "You're all skin and bones! You don't stand a chance against me! You're just a weak lil'..." A sudden outburst of pain startled the man as he held on to his stomach.
"Not as weak as you would think, huh?" Kaiba said with a smirk. The other two thugs stood there speechless as they watched their boss clutch on to his stomach in pain.
"What are you doin' just standin' around?! Get'im!" The boss shouted. The other two raced towards Kaiba. One swung a left punch at Kaiba and missed, but the other one caught Kaiba off guard and elbowed him in the back. Kaiba quickly got up and kicked the thug that elbowed him, right in the chest, knocking him 3 feet away along with the other thug, ricocheting them both against the wall. Suddenly, a bulky arm wrapped around Kaiba's neck and started choking him. Seto tried to pull away, but the arm refused to budge. Seto had to act fast, so he elbowed the last thug in the stomach. He broke free from the man and elbowed him in the back of the head, knocking him unconscious.
Seto jogged over to Téa. 'Good, she's still breathing.' He thought to himself. 'I'd better take her home to heal her wounds.' He carried Téa on his back and started walking home.
* End Flashback *
"Big brother?" Mokuba asked, breaking Seto from his trance.
"Yea? Oh. Thanks. I'll go visit her a little later. Let's get some breakfast." Seto suggested.
"Okay!" Mokuba smiled happily as he and his brother walked down the stairs to the kitchen.
Hushpuppy24: Well another chapter finished. I hope you liked it. Sorry if the fight wasn't very exciting...I'm not a very violent type person so I just did the best I could for a fight scene. Remember, fighting is not the solution. Peace out! ^.^
