"Big brother! Big brother Seto!" little Kaiba, Mokuba cried as he ran down
the the long corridor to his older brother's office. "Big brother Seto!!!!"
Mokuba was so excited that he didn't watch where he was going and slid into a pedestal with a vase on top of it. The vase started to wobble and started to tip over, it's lid about to fall off!
Mokuba couldn't watch! He squeezed his eyes shut and prayed that it wouldn't fall on him. After a few seconds, he looked up to see what was keeping it so long.
His eyes widened at the sight of his big brother, Seto, holding the vase in his hands. Expressionlessly, Seto placed the vase back in its place. He looked down to Mokuba who had dusted himself off and was standing full and tall with a meek expression. What a contrast. "Uh.Seto, I..."
The eldest son said nothing as he patted Mokuba on the head, tussling his hair.
"Um, Seto...I...I 'm sorry!" He glanced at the vase. "I almost knocked Kitty over."
'Kitty' as Mokuba referred to, was the Kaibas' pet cat that had died a while back after the tournament. Refusing to burry her, Mokuba begged to have the kitty 'still be in the house', so Seto had her cremated.
Seto stared at his brother. Then he walked right past him towards the kitchen figuring he was hungry.
"Seto?"
Kaiba turned on his name. "Yes Mokuba?"
"Um.today is a Sunday. There's no school today."
"And."Seto added, as if to warn Mokuba about beating around the bush, "What is it you want, Mokuba?"
Mokuba's face turned bright red at his brother's ability to see right through him. But he wanted to be tough and show no emotion like his brother. So he shook off his childishness and firmly stood his ground. "I want to go out for a puppy today!"
Seto raised and eyebrow. "A puppy? There are dozens of dogs right down the street. Pick one.
Mokuba thought for a moment the slowly shook his head. "Now way..And I'm not talking about Joey either!!"
Seto stifled a laugh. "You know what I mean.Not unless the Chinese place picked all them up for their next 'Special Foo Young'".
".."
"Alright. You got your things ready?"
Mokuba nodded enthusiastically. "Yep!"
"Everything?"
"Sure do!"
"Let's rock!"
"Whoo hoo!!"
On a happy note, the two Kaiba brothers headed out the door. Unknown two their security and them, there lurked a secret character in the shadows.
A grim smile slithered across her red lips as she hissed in glee then fled to the next room for her own purposes. Five minutes later she emerged and slipped a few pieces of mail outside the Kaiba residence.
And waited.
