Proloque

I've always found that a moment spent sitting in the grass, feeling the breeze blow through my hair, was one of the most relaxing moments there was. It was in that moment that I can turn my eyes to the setting sun and forget about the worries that consume me constantly.

My associates always tell me that I need to take time to relax, maybe by supporting some sort of local charity to improve my standing in the public eye. I have never been one to care very much about how people see me. The people that work for me are always worried about my public image, but that is the least of my worries.

My main concerns are my responsability to my younger brother Mokuba and my reputation as a Duel Monsters world champion. I have to admit that within the last couple years, it has gotten easier to look after my brother. Having recently turned fourteen, Mokuba doesn't really need me as much as he used to except to help him improve his dueling skills or brush out his unruly black hair in the mornings.

Ever since I organized the Battle City tournament, my previous clients and investors have renewed their faith in Kaiba Corp, the company I have managed for as long as I can remember. It was only because of my savvy business skills and the Kaiba name that I was able to save the floundering company from folding.

It had never been my idea to be Kaiba Corp's owner, but it allowed me to fulfill all my desires as a master duelist. For as long as I could remember, I had excelled at the card game and could not beaten by any duelist, amateur or otherwise. My skill was one of the many things that kept Kaiba Corp. afloat and of course, I reveled in the fame and fortune that came along with all the honors I had won.

Never again would I allow mokuba to be unhappy, to wish for things he could not have or dreams he could not achieve. He, on the other hand, was more concerned about my happiness.

"You should find someone to love, Seto. I hate seeing so unhappy all the time." he would tell me.

I embraced him warmly. "I am happy as long as I have you with me, little brother. That's all I need to be happy." I told him.

He sighed, concerned. "If you say so." he said.

It frightened me sometimes how well he knew me. It was true that with how busy I kept myself running Kaiba Corp. and taking care of Mokuba, I had forsaken my social life completely. I was okay with that; when the right person came along for me to be with, somehow I knew I would just know, even if it was someone I least suspected...
