Chapter 2

Kairi stood outside. Terrified to walk in, it was dark and murky, concealing the unknown, hiding the red. Kairi sighed and took a step forward.

"Ah..................... Kairi" A loud male voice boomed.

Kairi kneeled with her head down.

"What brings you back here?" The voice asked.

"My position" Kairi looked up only to see dark.

"What makes you think you're position is still open?" The unforgettable voice said once again from the center of the room.

"Because I was the best you had.............. Until I left" Kairi stood up.

"That is true" The man spoke as Kairi could hear him putting a glass down on his desk. "But you're father dying wish was for you to never come back here"

"I realized that..................but my mother is fating fast" Kairi took another step forward.

A hardy monstrous laugh filled the entire room where it held Kairi and the man. "Hearing that from a lady that has capture the cold heartless Seto Kaiba"

"Do you have my position?" Kairi wanted to get out as soon as possible if there was nothing here for her.

"I do" The man finally stepped into the brink of light that shown through the door. "But how do I know that you haven't become soft and weak?"

"I assure you I have not" Kairi was a totally different person in character.

"We will see" the large man snapped his finger and a young teenager male quickly ran up beside him.

"He is my best presently...................... Show me" The man snapped his fingers again. The young teenager stepped his left foot back which now strengthen his body. His left arm in offenses position and right arm in defense, he prepare mentally for battle.

The man stepped aside to watch the commotion that was about to begin. "Begin"

The young teenager stood his ground for one second and fronted his attacked as he charged at the weak looking girl. Kairi saw his every move. She waited for his fist to contact with her. The teenager sent his left fist flying targeting her face just had Kairi predicated at exact timing and exact speed and movement. Kairi leaned her upper body to the left and raised her right hand to intercept the force. She had to admit the boy was strong, but she knew that all he had.

The boy shocked that she could withstand his force. Kairi held on tight to his fist, which caused him to panic and lose his concentration, she made a three sixty spin lifting her leg in the process. It collided with this young boys face and he fell like stone throw into the sea.

"If that was the best you got.................... I'm afraid for you" Kairi looked at him.

"Amazing................ you are stronger and faster than I last saw.................... You are welcome to taking you're position again" the man clapped.

"Now that I know you desperately need me................. I demand the highest paying offers" Kairi walked up to the exceptionally large man.

"Of course" He answered

"Also I object to the fact that I should be used as decor or shall I be given a partner" Kairi conducted her business side.

"While of course" The man smiled at her.

"Also I claim the next offer you get.................. no matter how much"

"While yes................ if you grant.............. I will bestow you our current offer which hasn't been taken by any yet" He liked her demanding side.

"I accept" Kairi said without hesitation.

"Splendid........ Tomorrow night....... you will escort a young gentlemen to his dinner party....... formal wear is in order...... his offer is five thousand"

"Tomorrow it is" Kairi left.

"I will not accept failure.......... Kaiba Corps will proceed" Seto finished his lecture. He didn't wait for any further questions his workers might have as he left immediately after.

"Done?" Mokuba looked up as he saw his brother come out of his meeting.

Seto nodded and Mokuba followed him to the limousine.

"Kaiba mansion?" The driver voice softly but hearable spoke.

"No........ Lady Kairi's" Seto wanted to see what she was up too.

"Yes Sir" The car started to moved from the parking lot and into the streets.

The limousine arrived at the site of Lady Kairi's home. Seto got out and told the driver to wait for he made me a while. Seto walked up and rang the doorbell; he heard some shuffling then he heard the door click and open to reveal his Lady.

"Seto" Kairi a little shaken up to see Seto standing in front of her door, since he never come over.

"Kairi" Seto greeted her accordingly.

"Um......Uh.....Come in" Kairi finally said.

"I shouldn't" Seto stayed outside as he already knew that she would offer.

"Um....... Then did you want me to come with you?" Kairi asked confusingly.

"No" Seto said short.

"Then......"Kairi bit her lip.

"I came to give you this" Seto handed her some papers.

"What is it?" Kairi grabbed it and looked at it.

"Numbers and locations" Seto answered.

Kairi was confused as her only answer to his statement was her eyes locking onto his.

"I have to go to America next month" Seto revealed.

"Oh" Water sentiment started to form from her eyes.

"And I want you to come with me" Seto added to his comment.

"Seto.......I.......can't" Kairi answered in truthfully.

"Why is that?" Seto eyes harden.

"My mother and brother need me here....... and I already obtain my position........" Kairi dared not to speak anymore.

"Position? Where?" Seto noticed her hesitation.

"My former work environment" Kairi said quickly with out lying.

"Kairi......." Seto began.

"I told you......................... Seto" Kairi didn't want to say anymore.

"Very well then........ Don't jump to conclusion on my offer....... If you change your mind"

"I know" Kairi interrupted.

Seto left without a word of goodbye.
