Chapter 7: Drifting Apart

(Jenrya: Hi! I got reviews, so I decided to continue! BUT I WANT MORRRREEEE!!! MWAHAHAHAHA!! *people slowly back away* NO!! YOU DIDN'T REVIEW!!!! *readers push me out of way to read fic*)

            "Oh good crap......" Seto slowly examined the fine dents in his car, and the bent window wipers, which would do no good now. Seto wished he hadn't killed his Yami....because if he did the complete Seto would never again....well, exist. He slowly tried to rub the smudge off his car. "If you would have joined me, your car would still in good condition." Seto turned around, seeing.....Malik behind him. Seto saw Kaiba and Dark Bakura right behind him. Seto glared at them. 'Ohhhhh crap.' Seto thought, frowning. "Hi." Kaiba said, glaring like a mental patient at Seto. Seto happily noticed that Kaiba supported a broken wrist. And a twisted ankle or something of that sort, since Kaiba was limping. Seto frowned. The ankle could become infected, causing Kaiba to die. Seto looked in his car and took out a huge roll of cloth bandages.  "Hurry up with them. I haven't got all day......." Seto said, sadly giving Kaiba the roll. Malik slowly hit Seto on the head with his arm. "Oh crap—" Seto fell to the ground, holding his aching head. A hard kick came toward his stomach. 'Craaaaapppppp...............'

            Mokuba had become quite depressed lately. He didn't know why J-Pop (Japanese Pop) didn't help, or why T.V. openings like "Biggest Dreamer", "Moonlight Desetsu", "Carnival Babel", and "Zanou Koku ne Tenshi na TE-ZE!", didn't make him smile anymore. He just sat in his room for hours.....looking at the ceiling or fiddling his thumbs. He missed his brother....who was like a father, mother.....everything to him.... 'I WON'T LOSE HIM!' Mokuba said, taking his coat off the hanger and walking through the door.

            Seto opened his eyes slowly. They felt swollen shut. Maybe because they were swollen shut. (A/N: Gruesome. I know. But it's better then a blindfold, as you will see later on.) "We've got to get him to a hospital or something." A familiar voice said. Seto looked at the person, but there was little success. Then the name popped into his head. "Bakura! Ryou! How did you get to work for the bad guys?!!" Seto demanded, noticing his lips were bleeding. 'I swear, when I get out of here, their butts are MINE!' Seto told himself. "It's a long story...." Bakura said. "Well, I'm not going anywhere." Seto said, hearing the door behind him slamming, and then a lock being turned on. "They're not here anymore. You could open your eyes." Bakura said nicely, his accent the only friendly thing Seto heard for a long time. "Bad Bakura separated from me somehow...." Bakura said as Seto painfully started to open his eyes. But he couldn't. Seto noticed that his legs weren't tied down or anything. Seto carefully turned to Bakura's voice (because he was still explaining), and felt Bakura's hand run into Seto's shoulder. "Opps! Sorry! I didn't see that!" Bakura said quickly. "What?!!" At first Seto thought Bakura was making a joke, but then he remembered Bakura was NOT like that. Seto turned his head to Bakura. "Can you see?" Seto asked. "Yes. But don't think I can get you out of here or anything. My wrists seem broken. I can't move them without acquiring a lot of pain." Bakura said, staring at his hands. (A/N: Yes! Gruesome, I know! BUT I SWEAR, that is the gruesome-est thing you will read in the fic!) Seto sat there in complete silence for a while. Suddenly, an idea popped into his head. "Bakura, be my eyes." Seto said, standing up. "Oh! And you'll be my hands! But the door is locked..." Bakura said. "Not for long." Seto said, reaching in his pocket, and taking out a bobby-pin. "I keep these incase of emergencies." Seto muttered to Bakura. Seto held his hand blindly in front of him. He grabbed Bakura's shoulder. "So, were do I walk?"

             Mokuba looked in the big town, finding nothing. He finally found Seto's car parked – no, it wasn't parked...it was just there. 'A clue!' Mokuba looked in Seto's car quickly, praying for Seto's cell phone. He found it, and called Yugi immediately.

Several curses later....

            "And there's the door." Bakura said, smiling triumph-fully. His smile turned into a smile as he saw Seto have trouble inserting the pin in the key hole, but after a few turns, it came through. Bakura started to jump put the door, but Seto grasped his shoulder so much it hurt. Seto pulled him in, pushing him to the floor. "What was that for?" Bakura asked. "Did you think that maybe there coming right in? YOU MUST FIRST SEE IF THE COAST IS CLEAR!" Bakura jumped, because when Seto screamed, his eyes burst open. This shocked Seto as well. "I guess my eyes are better...." Seto said, rubbing them. Seto now noticed that when he pushed Bakura down, he fell on his wrist. Bakura held his lip in pain. Seto took the wrist carefully, and made very, VERY hard Indian Burns on Bakura's wrists (A/N: Indian Burn: When someone places two hands on a persons arm/wrist and moves both hands in different direction. These hurt...a lot) Bakura winced in pain. "The blood will now flow there, causing less pain." Seto said, smiling. "How did you know–" "The coast is clear...." Seto said, opening the door and leaving. "Wait up, Seto!"  Bakura ran after Seto, smiling as his hands felt better.

            "Hey, Seto?" Bakura asked, once the two were finally pretty far from the horrible, broken down, tattered house they had been locked in. Seto laid against a tree. "Shoot." Seto said, not making any eye contact, but looking at the moon. "Thanks for helping me back there." Bakura said, smiling happily. Seto's face turned pink. He never helped anyone before. He mostly used his skills in health for himself. "Whatever. Just never speak of it ever again."

            "NANNNNIIIIIII??? DOMO!" Yugi said, trying his best not to sound to shocked. "Yes, I want you to use your puzzle to help me find—" "Whatever. Just never speak of it ever again." Seto said, as he started walking. "SETO!!!" Mokuba glomped his brother to near death. Seto smiled and patted his brothers head.

(A/N: Short, I know. Well, I've got tests, so I can't write fast. I know I said a week before, and I am ETERNALLY sorry for the hold up. Bye-ies! Except next chap up in a while.....)
