Disclaimer: I don't own Pegasus. I don't own Yami(even though I want to), I don't own the whole frigging show. Heck, I don't even own a pack
of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards yet! So, don't sue me, I'm just writing this for fun, capishe?
A/N: Hey, all! I just wanna thank all of you for sticking around with this story so far, and apologies for taking long with posting chapters.
I am working on two other stories, you know. This doesn't mean I'll be closing this fic within two chappies or something. Nooo. ^^
And on another note- to all you people out there who don't really know much Japanese, Aibou means 'partner' or 'other'. Also, I'm using another
Japanese word that I remember right now in here. So, just letting you know before you ask, Tojikimeru means 'Shut up'. ^^ If anyone out there
doesn't understand another Japanese word I might say, feel free to ask me. Well, on with the story!
~Chapter 5~
The streets of Domino City had remained deserted for the past year, since Pegasus had taken over all of Japan, not including the odd guard patrolling
the streets, incase someone was stupid to try and get back to Japan go on vacation. Word had spread throughout the world of Pegasus' gain and Japan's
lose. Panic had spread throughout the globe, everyday living in fear if they country would be his next victim, since a few more had been taken over
since, such as China and France.
But, as the guards passed up and down the streets, they failed to realize that one place had been made into a safe house, for people who were lucky
enough to not have been caught. And by the looks of it, it was just an old deserted company building which had been partly burned down by the guards
trying to get in to make all of the workers in the building slaves.
It to the west of the town, almost the outskirts of town. It was very tall, and had a couple of burn marks all over it, and broken windows everywhere,
and not a light on to be seen. The door was closed tightly, and was a shade of burgundy. And, at the top of the building, were the words that were
suppose to be lit up red, but had been slightly destroyed in the fire- Kaiba Corp.
Inside of the old building most of the rooms were left deserted, with no sign of life. But, in four stray rooms there were signs of life. One room held
many sleeping bags, and the old stuffed animal that were suspected to belong to little children. Another room held lots of stuff you would find in a
hospital, and some bed to lay on. Another had many table and to the side another table had all sorts of food, like bread, water, fruits, and even a couple
of vegetables. The last room held lots of technology, or microchips, and a man who looked sixteen worked in there.
He was very tall, and had a bit of a stressed look on his face, and dark lines under his eyes from lack of sleep. He had somewhat cold blue eyes, and short
brown hair, his bangs falling loosely over his eyes. He wore a worn blue cloak, a golden chain hidden well by the cloak hung around his neck, and his hands
bared tools of some sort, while he was working on some type of machine.
He sighed to himself, and threw a wrench to the side. "Stupid machine," he cursed, "Why can't I fix this thing? Heck, I built this thing from scratch, and I
can't do a thing to fix it! I can't believe I used to run this company...then again, I had only just started out when Pegasus came along...god, I hate him.
Who does he think he is, coming along like he's king of the world, and taking over Japan? He's forcing everyone to be his...slave, and here I am, trying to
keep me and my brother alive, while trying to help those who escaped him! God damn it..."
He let out a breath of air, then let out a frustrated groan, and pushed the machine harshly off of the table. A loud metal clatter followed, making him sigh
once more. He placed his chin in his hands, and thought to himself for a while.
A few minutes later, the door to his room opened, and a ten year old boy with long black hair peeked through. "Seto..?"
"What is it?" Seto replied harshly. He turned around, and his face softened. "Oh, it's you, Mokuba,"
"Big brother, I know your mad, but if you keep on making noise in here, they'll find us!" Mokuba said with a sad frown.
Seto sighed, and looked down to the ground. "Sorry," he mumbled.
Mokuba smiled a little, then said, "Seto, how about you come out? It probably really stuffy in here, and you might get sick.."
Seto chuckled a little. "I'm fine, Mokuba. Really. But I think we both need a break from this place. Want to come with me while I go look for more people?"
Mokuba grinned widely. "Sure, big brother!"
As Seto and Mokuba sneaked out of the old building, Seto couldn't help but notice how beautiful the day was. Despite the problem the plagued Japan, the sun was
shining, a few scattered clouds, and the temperature was warm, but not to humid. Seto closed his eyes and relaxed a bit as a small gust of wind tickled his face,
making his hair fly a bit with it. He opened his eyes again as it passed, and walked cautiously down the streets of Domino city, keeping his hand tightly wrapped
around Mokuba's.
A few hours later, Seto and Mokuba neared the old building, which was just a few blocks ahead. Seto suddenly stopped in mid step, and started to look around.
"What's the matter, big brother?" Mokuba asked.
"It's-ah!" Seto was knocked over after being bashed over the head with a steel bat, and was unconscious before he hit the ground.
"Seto? Seto?! Big brother!" cried Mokuba, leaning over Seto's seemingly lifeless body, shacking his shoulder. Next that happened was hard to make out, but Mokuba's
scream of terror pretty much explained it all. He was then dragged off, kicking and screaming by two REALLY ugly men in black suits, Seto remaining in the shadows
of a building, explaining why the two men didn't carry him off too. He was still unconscious, face first in the dirt, his head oozing with warm red blood.
A little time later, a small groan escaped his lips. He blue eyes slowly fluttered open, and sat up, placing his hand on the back of the head. "What hit me..?" he
whispered, after removing his hand from his head, and seeing a patch of blood on his hand. Seto winced a bit as the last scene before blacking out in pain flashed
through his head. It hurt to think.
"Mokuba.." he mumbled to himself. He winced a bit as dizzyness over took him as he tried to stand up. He leaned against a nearby wall, "Mokuba?" No answer. "Mokuba!
This isn't funny! Come out!" Seto took a few steps forward, before falling on his knees and palms of his hands. "Mokuba.." he murmured shutting his eyes, and holding
back a tear, "He's...gone...somebody took him," he let out a small whimpered of sadness, and tried to stand up once more. But, he fell once more, but then time, he
felt a small piece of paper underneath his left hand instead of dirt. "Huh?" he picked it up, and scanned it thoroughly.
It was a map, a map to a small island, with lots of forest on it, and in the middle a very big castle. And, at the tope of the paper, in big bold fancy letters, spelt
'Duelist Kingdom'.
Seto narrowed his eyes angrily. "Mokuba," he said in a bit of a hoarse voice, "That's where they took him. And that is where I must go."
* * *
Miles away, just off of Japan, on Duelist Kingdom, Yugi's violet eyes snapped open. Time had passed since he met Bakura, about a couple of days, to be exact. Now, it
was the middle of the night, and everyone was asleep...excluding Yugi now, of course.
Yugi's heavy breaths of air soon subsided, as he calmed himself down. He blinked a couple of times, and narrowed his eyes in thought.
/...Yami?/
//...//
/Yami?/
//...zzzz...//
/Yami!/
//..zz...*sleepily* Hmm, what? What is it, Yugi?//
/Sorry to wake you, but../
//But what?//
/..I had a nightmare.../
//*more alert* Oh. I see. But it's ok, Yugi, it's just a dream.//
/But it was scary, Yami../
//*sighs* Well, would it help if you told me about it?//
/...Yes, I guess. It was...really dark. Even darker than black, if it's possible. There were swirls of blue everywhere, which were almost as dark of the rest of the
place. Anyway, both of us were standing there. Both separate, not in one body. I couldn't really see your face, though. It was very faint. We stand there for a little
while; just waiting for something. Then, a face appears in front of us. It had long white hair, but I couldn't see his eyes, but you could somehow sense that they
were evil. He laughs evilly, and the rest of his body forms. I can't remember what he wore, either. He's wearing a necklace, though, and it glows. Pegasus appears, and
his golden eyes glows with the other's necklace. The other man pushed Pegasus back, though, as his necklace glows brighter. He laughs again, just as I fall back, and I
start falling down a hole, and screaming. As I fall, I see many flashes of light above me. Then, it goes all white...and then, I wake up./
//...Hmm.//
/'Hmm' what, Yami?/
//It's nothing. It's just a nightmare, go back to sleep, Aibou. I'm right here to protect you, so you have nothing to fear.//
/..Alright. Good night, Yami/
//Good night, Yugi.//
Yugi slowly closed his eyes once more, and drifted off to sleep.
'It is something. Something bad...the shadow realm.' Yami thought to himself after Yugi had fallen asleep.
* * *
The next day, Yugi knew something would happen, something bad. He didn't know for sure why he thought that, he just had a sinking feeling. But, Yugi had forgotten about
that feeling just before lunch time, while he and his friends were in the laundry room, washing some of Pegasus and his guards clothes.
Anzu had a disgusted look on her face as she picked up something from a dirty laundry basket, which just happened to be Pegasus's...well, you can guess from there, eh?
"Just what I need to top off the day--Pegasus's dirty underwear!" Anzu whispered in a tone that would let people around her know she was about to throw up. She covered
her mouth with her free hand, threw the underwear in her underwear to her side, and whipped her hand across the table cloth. "Yuck!"
The underwear landed right in front of Bakura, who happened to be washing one of Pegasus's scarf(which he found was rather lucky, instead of washing his *other* clothing).
Bakura didn't notice though, since he was staring at Yugi, and barely even paying attention to what he was doing.
Yugi happened to be humming a little song to himself, trying to keep his mind off of what he was doing and becoming depressed, but the song happened to be somewhat sad
itself. He continued to hum a song by the 'Guns and Roses' that his mom was fond of, which was called 'Sweet child o' mine'(lol, my sister keeps on listening to that song,
and it's stuck in my head. I dedicate this part to her. ;)). In fact, she used to sing that to him when he was little, when he couldn't fall asleep.
Yugi suddenly stopped humming when he felt after a while Bakura's eyes glued onto him. He glanced over at Bakura, who had turned away as soon as he looked. Yugi raised an
eyebrow; for some reason, Bakura happened to be doing the same things he was doing lately, as if he was stalking him.
'*Could* he be stalking me?' Yugi wondered, '...No. I mean, why would he be?'
//You can't be so sure of that, Aibou.//
Yugi shrugged off Yami's warning, and just paid attention to what he was doing afterwards. But, he didn't notice that Bakura took another glance at him, too, just before
minding his own business afterwards(not to mention throwing that underwear back at Anzu).
* * *
Seto Kaiba ran at full speed through his old office building, panting wildly as he went, not daring to stop incase he wouldn't be able to move again. His head still hurt
from where he got banged on by the steel bat, but paid as little attention to it as he could, pushing himself to the limit with the only thing on his mind was his little
eleven year old brother, Mokuba.
"Seto-chan, what's wrong?" asked a woman in an old white dress much like a nurse, with copper brown hair pulled into a braid and emerald green eyes, sticking her head out
of one of the rooms, which just happened to be the room where sick or injured people when to.
When she heard no reply from Seto as he ran by, she narrowed her eyes in slight frustration, and without a second thought ran after him.
Seto slid to a stop as he past his office, and ran right into it, almost knocking down the door trying to open it on his way in. The girl who looked around Seto's age
glanced into the room with a bit of concern, but also annoyance since he didn't answer her before.
With his teeth gritted, Seto was trying to find something throughout his office which looked like a tornado had recently hit it, since she had remembered that the last time
she was in there, it was neat and tidy. When Seto finally found what he was looking for, he grunted with satisfaction. "I might need this," he murmured, stuffing the two
circular machines into his briefcase, which happened to have a deck of duel monster cards in it, some extra clothing, and a couple of weapons, such as a pocket knife and
pepper spray(don't ask me how he got those! :P). Suddenly remembering something from before, though, he abandoned his briefcase and started to rummage through one of his
cabinets nearby, and that's when she noticed that he was hurt, as he cringed in pain after taking too quick of a turn.
"Seto-chan! Oh, your hurt!" she gasped running up to Seto. But, he continued to go about his business, ignoring the pain and her.
"Seto-chan? Didn't you hear me? Hel-lo, your hurt!" She said, getting a bit annoyed. After getting no answer, she yelled, "Seto Kaiba, answer me, dammit!"
With an angry expression, Seto finally looked towards her, and snarled, "Tojikimeru, Gemmei Miyagi Kamei!"
Gemmei winced a bit when Seto yelled at her. "Gomen, Seto-chan," she then looked at him with a small bit of confidence, "But you don't have to call me by my full name! You
know I don't like that! Call me Gem, for once! Gemmei's also good, but I prefer Gem.."
Seto sighed. "I don't have time for this, GEM," he said with a bit more calmness, his vocie harder when he said Gem's name.
"Why? What wrong?"
"Like I said, I have no time for this."
"Well, at least answer me! Otherwise, I won't leave you alone!"
Seto sighed to himself softly. "It's Mokuba. He's been...captured."
"Captured? By who?" Gem asked, with surprise and concern in her tone.
"That, I'm not sure of. I got this lump on my head that proves it, too. He knocked me out before I could even glance at him. But, I know who must of sent him." Seto pulled a
piece of folded paper from his pocket, and unfolded it, showing it to Gem. "He left this behind, and I found it on the ground when I woke up. I'm not sure how long I was out,
but this...this is where I'll find Mokuba. On Duelist Kingdom."
"That means--"
"Yes. Pegasus took Mokuba."
"That sleaze ball!" growled Gem, "Why would he do something like that? He's gone too far! First he takes over Japan, enslaves most of it's population, and now he's holding
Mokuba for what I guess a ransom! I'm coming with you, Seto-chan!"
"No!" Seto replied a bit more harsh than he wanted to, "No. You need to stay here. Your basically the only one here now that I can trust with making sure that things are run
here smoothly when I'm gone. I need you here, Gem."
"But what about you? You saw what they did to you, they probably gave you a concussion when they hit you with that bat!" Gem argued.
"I'll be fine on my own. They took me by surprise somewhat. I won't let that happen again. Just...get some bandages for my head and I'll be fine."
Gem stared at Seto for a few moments, and then reluctantly nodded. "I'll be back in a minute, Seto-chan." With that, Gem ran out of the room, and Seto went back to looking through
the cabinets for something. A minute later, he sighed in relief as he pulled from the pile of junk two blue eyes white dragon cards.
"No way I'm leaving these here. These are my favourite cards, and I'll need them if I happen to come across a duel when I'm on the island, hence the name." Seto then took his deck
out of his briefcase, and shuffled the deck with his two blue eyes white dragon cards in it(A/N: I know that Seto has three in the show, but this is AU. Don't worry, you'll see the
other two blue eyes later on in the story. ^^). He placed his deck back in his briefcase, and shut it closed, just as Gem emerged back in the room, with a lot of gauss to wrap
around Seto's head.
"OK, hold still now, Seto-chan," Gem murmured, going on her tip-toes to reached Seto's head, since she was a bit shorter than Seto. She carefully wrapped the gauss around his head,
tying it tight around his head, his hair overlapping most of it afterwards. "There you go...good luck in finding your brother, Seto-chan."
Seto half smiled at Gem. "Thank you, Gem. Well...goodbye."
"Wait!" Gem suddenly shouted, "How are you going to get there?"
Seto then fully smiled. "By helicopter, of course."
Seto ran out of the room, briefcase in hand. Gem looked around the room, and decided that later on she would clean up the mess. A few minutes later, she looked out the window and saw
Seto cautiously, and then running for a garage beside the building. Another minute later, he emerged from the garage, this time in his helicopter, and flying out in the distance.
Gem sadly smiled a bit as he flew away, and pulled out a picture of Seto, herself. And Mokuba all in the picture. "Come back soon, Seto-chan."
~To Be Continued...~
A/N: Yay! Seto's in the story now! ^___^ Hehehe. I finally got him in there. He's bound to make the story more interesting, too. Please review!
of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards yet! So, don't sue me, I'm just writing this for fun, capishe?
A/N: Hey, all! I just wanna thank all of you for sticking around with this story so far, and apologies for taking long with posting chapters.

"Seto-chan! Oh, your hurt!" she gasped running up to Seto. But, he continued to go about his business, ignoring the pain and her.
"Seto-chan? Didn't you hear me? Hel-lo, your hurt!" She said, getting a bit annoyed. After getting no answer, she yelled, "Seto Kaiba, answer me, dammit!"
With an angry expression, Seto finally looked towards her, and snarled, "Tojikimeru, Gemmei Miyagi Kamei!"
Gemmei winced a bit when Seto yelled at her. "Gomen, Seto-chan," she then looked at him with a small bit of confidence, "But you don't have to call me by my full name! You
know I don't like that! Call me Gem, for once! Gemmei's also good, but I prefer Gem.."
Seto sighed. "I don't have time for this, GEM," he said with a bit more calmness, his vocie harder when he said Gem's name.
"Why? What wrong?"
"Like I said, I have no time for this."
"Well, at least answer me! Otherwise, I won't leave you alone!"
Seto sighed to himself softly. "It's Mokuba. He's been...captured."
"Captured? By who?" Gem asked, with surprise and concern in her tone.
"That, I'm not sure of. I got this lump on my head that proves it, too. He knocked me out before I could even glance at him. But, I know who must of sent him." Seto pulled a
piece of folded paper from his pocket, and unfolded it, showing it to Gem. "He left this behind, and I found it on the ground when I woke up. I'm not sure how long I was out,
but this...this is where I'll find Mokuba. On Duelist Kingdom."
"That means--"
"Yes. Pegasus took Mokuba."
"That sleaze ball!" growled Gem, "Why would he do something like that? He's gone too far! First he takes over Japan, enslaves most of it's population, and now he's holding
Mokuba for what I guess a ransom! I'm coming with you, Seto-chan!"
"No!" Seto replied a bit more harsh than he wanted to, "No. You need to stay here. Your basically the only one here now that I can trust with making sure that things are run
here smoothly when I'm gone. I need you here, Gem."
"But what about you? You saw what they did to you, they probably gave you a concussion when they hit you with that bat!" Gem argued.
"I'll be fine on my own. They took me by surprise somewhat. I won't let that happen again. Just...get some bandages for my head and I'll be fine."
Gem stared at Seto for a few moments, and then reluctantly nodded. "I'll be back in a minute, Seto-chan." With that, Gem ran out of the room, and Seto went back to looking through
the cabinets for something. A minute later, he sighed in relief as he pulled from the pile of junk two blue eyes white dragon cards.
"No way I'm leaving these here. These are my favourite cards, and I'll need them if I happen to come across a duel when I'm on the island, hence the name." Seto then took his deck
out of his briefcase, and shuffled the deck with his two blue eyes white dragon cards in it(A/N: I know that Seto has three in the show, but this is AU. Don't worry, you'll see the
other two blue eyes later on in the story. ^^). He placed his deck back in his briefcase, and shut it closed, just as Gem emerged back in the room, with a lot of gauss to wrap
around Seto's head.
"OK, hold still now, Seto-chan," Gem murmured, going on her tip-toes to reached Seto's head, since she was a bit shorter than Seto. She carefully wrapped the gauss around his head,
tying it tight around his head, his hair overlapping most of it afterwards. "There you go...good luck in finding your brother, Seto-chan."
Seto half smiled at Gem. "Thank you, Gem. Well...goodbye."
"Wait!" Gem suddenly shouted, "How are you going to get there?"
Seto then fully smiled. "By helicopter, of course."
Seto ran out of the room, briefcase in hand. Gem looked around the room, and decided that later on she would clean up the mess. A few minutes later, she looked out the window and saw
Seto cautiously, and then running for a garage beside the building. Another minute later, he emerged from the garage, this time in his helicopter, and flying out in the distance.
Gem sadly smiled a bit as he flew away, and pulled out a picture of Seto, herself. And Mokuba all in the picture. "Come back soon, Seto-chan."
