------------------------------
Kaiba raised an eyebrow at his brother's sudden remembrance.
"You're that girl in the hallway always playing Duel Monsters!" Mokuba said to Kea. "Are you gonna enter the tournament the school's having this month?"
Kea shrugged. "I dunno," she said. "Anyway, the school tells me you're not doing too good in—"
"You're a duelist, Kea?" Kaiba asked with interest, cutting Kea's sentence short.
Kea shrugged and said, "Yeah, I've been dueling for about a year now. So Mokuba, what subject do you need the most—"
"She's good!" Mokuba told his brother, not even acknowledging the fact that Kea had begun talking. "I watched her in the hallway after school yesterday and the day before. She's really good, Seto, you should duel her sometime."
Kaiba folded his arms and raised his eyebrows so that even his eyes were practically gone under his bangs. "Are you really that good?" he asked Kea.
"I'm okay," Kea shrugged. "What do you think Mokuba needs the most-"
"She tied with Yugi Motou!" Mokuba interrupted.
That got Kaiba's attention. "You did?" he asked. When Kea nodded, Kaiba shook his head. "You didn't," he stated. "Impossible. How."
Shrugging, Kea said, "I don't remember all the details. He did an attack on his last turn and I countered with a quickplay magic card that attacked his life points directly. His attack still went through, that and my magic card did the same amount of damage to both of us on the same turn and took away all of our life points. Anyway, Mokuba, what subject did you get the lowest—"
"Where did you learn to duel?" Kaiba asked, interrupting Kea again.
"I taught myself," Kea replied, a bit annoyed at all the interruptions. "So Mokuba, how are you doing in—"
"Can you duel me sometime?" Mokuba asked excitedly.
"GOODNESS GRACIOUS!" Kea said, exasperated. "Is all you guys think about Duel Monsters?! How am I supposed to tutor you if you two keep cutting me—"
It surprised both Kaiba brothers when Kea cut herself off. She stood silent for a moment, lost in thought, then took an excited jump, the youth inside of her showing clearly as she laughed with brightly shining eyes, and exclaimed, "I got it! I got it, it's perfect!"
"Got what?" Mokuba asked. "What's perfect?"
"Do you have your dueling deck on you?" she asked Mokuba, holding out her open palm to him.
"Now you're talkin' my language!" Mokuba smiled as he pulled his deck out of his pocket and handed it to her.
Kea searched through the deck momentarily, then got down on her knees in front of the low coffee table, sitting on her feet. Mokuba was confused, but got down on the other side of the table so that he was facing her.
"So you're failing everything?" Kea asked as she laid a few cards face-down in a pile.
"Yep," Mokuba said.
"How ya doin' in World History?" she asked, looking up at him briefly.
"Let's just say Ancient Egypt isn't exactly my best friend."
Kea smiled. "Great," she said.
"Great?" Kaiba repeated, confused "How is that great? What are you doing?"
Kea glanced at Kaiba for a quick second, but ignored his questions. She set Mokuba's deck on the end of the coffee table and picked up the face-down cards she had in front of her. She took the first and laid it face-up on the table in Mokuba's direction. It was Judgeman (2200/1500).
"Can I see one of your Blue Eyes White Dragons (3000/2500)?" she asked Kaiba.
When she saw the leery look he was giving her, she added, "I'm not gonna do anything to it, I'm right here in front of you. Look, if I damage it, I will personally hand you the knife to slit my throat with. And I'm not the one to break promises."
With that, Kaiba relaxed a bit. He took out his deck and handed Kea the first card on the top. She handled it carefully before placing it onto the table next to the Judgeman.
"In attack mode, when these two monsters go up against each other, who wins?" Kea asked Mokuba, quizzing him.
"Blue Eyes," Mokuba shrugged.
"Good," Kea said, nodding. She slid the Judgeman under the Blue Eyes, then placed a Lava Battleguard (1550/1800) next to it. "Attack mode," she said. "Who would win?"
"Judgeman."
Kea nodded, moving the Lava Battleguard under the Judgeman. She laid a Celtic Guardian (1400/1200) next to the Lava Battleguard. "Same question," she said plainly.
"Lava Battleguard," Mokuba said. "What's the point of this? It's so obvious."
"Exactly." Kea smirked before placing a Saggi the Dark Clown (600/1500) next to the Celtic Guardian. "Come on," she said.
"Celtic Guardian."
Kaiba watched with Kea was doing with interest. He wasn't sure of what the purpose of it was, and he figured that the one way to find out was to keep quiet and watch.
Kea dug into her mini backpack and took out a deck of Duel Monsters cards. Kaiba was tempted to ask permission to look through her deck, but controlled himself and watched as she pulled a card from the bottom of the deck, then placed the bulk of the cards back in her bag. She placed a Kuriboh on the table next to Saggi.
"Saggi the Dark Clown," Mokuba said, not even waiting for Kea to ask the question.
"You're good," Kea said as she placed the Kuriboh under Saggi on the table. She smiled and said, "And this is where it all falls together." She placed her hands on the table, fingers spread and palm down, on either side of the row of cards. "This is your Ancient Egyptian caste system in order from most powerful to least powerful."
Kaiba's eyes widened as he realized what Kea had set up for his brother. The idea was very smart, especially for having been thought of on the spur of the moment. He hid the smirk that had begun to form on his face and continued watching.
"The Blue Eyes White Dragon," she began, "is the pharaoh. The most powerful; overpowers everything in the caste system. Got it?" she asked Mokuba. When he nodded, she said, "Repeat it."
"The pharaoh overpowers everything in the caste system."
Kea nodded approvingly. "The Judgeman represents the priests. Overpowers everyone except the pharaoh. Repeat that."
Mokuba looked at Kea intently. He was genuinely interesting in what she was doing. "Priests overpower everyone but the pharaoh."
"Good," Kea said. She pointed to the next card and said, "Now the Lava Battleguard is the nobles. Guess who the nobles overpower."
"Everybody but the priests and pharaohs."
Kea explained the rest of the caste system-middle class citizens, peasants, and slaves, and gave him other drills. She placed two cards from the caste system in front of him and asked him the name of the position on the Egyptian caste system would overrule who. Kaiba watched contentedly, satisfied with the way his brother was being taught.
"Okay, so you got the rankings down good," Kea told Mokuba after about five minutes of her drills. "Having fun?"
Smiling, Mokuba nodded. "Yeah," he said.
"Good," Kea said, returning his smile. She reached to the end of the table and picked up Mokuba's deck, scanning through it until she found the card she needed. She put the deck back and placed the Monster Reborn card next to the Lava Battleguard. "Back to Duel Monsters," she said. "Which card is stronger? Lava Battleguard or Monster Reborn?"
"Lava Battleguard," Mokuba said.
Kea shook her head. "Think strategically," she advised.
Mokuba thought for a second, then said, "Oh, Monster Reborn because it can revive a stronger monster."
"Right," Kea said. "Okay, so let's say that you had a Swamp Battleguard destroyed earlier on in the game, so you revive him to raise the attack points of both of the Battleguards. So now the Lava Battleguard's at 2250 because of the Swamp Battleguard on the field. Now pretend the Swamp Battleguard got affected by a magic card and can't do anything for a while, okay? It's just in the way right now. Got it?"
Kea gave Mokuba a second to get everything together in his head and waited for his okay to continue. "Okay, so imagine you get a field power bonus of 200 points and you equip your Battleguard with Invigoration, which raises its attack points by 500, total. What's its attack points, now?"
"2550," Mokuba said.
"I'm bad at math in my head, so let's assume you're right," Kea said, getting a laugh out of the younger Kaiba. She smiled at him as she placed the now strengthened Lava Battleguard with the Monster Reborn attached, next to the Judgeman. "Now if the Battleguard's attack points are 2550 and the Judgeman's are 2200, who wins?"
"The Lava Battleguard," Mokuba said.
Kea slid the Blue Eyes White Dragon over to the Judgeman and the Battleguard. "What now?" she asked.
"The Blue Eyes overpowers the Battlegaurd," Mokuba answered.
Kea nodded. "Right, good," she said. "Now say you have some weird, strangely inhuman obsession with warrior-type monsters and you have another Lava Battleguards in your deck. You randomly draw it and play it face-up in defense mode. What's your Lava Battleguard's attack points now?"
"3050," Mokuba replied. Kea looked at him knowingly and he understood, saying, "It overpowers the Blue Eyes!"
"Bingo," Kea said. "Now listen. CAREFULLY. It took a field power bonus, an equip card, a Swamp Battleguard, an extra Lava Battleguard, and either some real good luck or the Heart of the Cards to overpower the Blue Eyes. Very rare. VERY rare. How many people do you know who have two Lava Battleguards and a Swamp Battleguard at the top of their deck every game, and can just randomly pull the field and equip cards you need in the same turn? I mean, really. Very very rare. Remember that." She sighed. "Now. If the Monster Reborn represents the sorcerers and the sorceresses-they're nobles, like the Lava Battleguard-and all their extra attack points came from their magical abilities-like the equip cards and power bonuses-explain everything I just did using the caste system."
Seto Kaiba was taken back by how quickly and smoothly his brother answered the question.
"The sorcerers have the same amount of power as the other nobles, but they can overpower the priests sometimes when their magical abilities help them. They can overpower the pharaoh sometimes because of their powers, but it's really really really really rare."
Kea leaned forward and rested her elbows on the table, smiling widely. "If I gave you a test on this stuff tomorrow, would you pass it?"
Mokuba mirrored Kea and leaned on the table the same was she was, bringing their faces only a few inches shy of touching each other. "With flying Duel Monsters," he grinned.
Kea leaned back, laughing. "Great," she said, leaning back on her feet as she gathered the cards up from the table. She pushed the deck towards Mokuba and stuck her Kuriboh in her mini backpack. She stood up and walked towards Kaiba, who was now sitting down in a dark red armchair.
"I believe this belongs to you," Kea said, holding out the Blue Eyes White Dragon to him by the edges.
"Thank you," Kaiba said, standing up as he took the card from her. When he examined it, he saw that she had barely even gotten her fingerprints on it. His thoughts were interrupted when Mokuba's voice came from behind Kea.
"What else are we doing today, Kea?" he asked.
Kea turned around and shrugged. "Nothing," she said. "I gotta talk to your brother about how often I can come and stuff like that. Actually, I wasn't supposed to start actually teaching you anything until next week."
Mokuba's face sagged. "Oh," he said, disappointment showing clear through his voice. "Okay."
"Wait a minute," Kaiba said, a bit taken back by his brother's response. "You mean to tell me you actually WANT to learn?"
"It was fun!" Mokuba said defensively. He shrugged it off and said, "Well, I'm going back upstairs if you're not staying, Kea. I left my game on and I'm probably dead by now. I'll see you tomorrow in school."
Kea nodded. "Yeah," she said. "See ya." She turned to Kaiba and said, "So how often do you think—"
Ring.
Kea sighed heavily. "So many interruptions," she said as she reached into her pocket and pulled out her cell phone. She glanced at the number on the Caller ID before flipping it open. "Yeah," she said. She listened for a moment, glanced at Kaiba's blank expression, then said, "Come to the Kaiba estate now, I'll be outside," and flipped the phone shut.
"I'm sorry, I gotta run," Kea said. "I'll talk to you later about when I should come, this is an emergency."
"Well can we at least discuss—"
"No, I'm sorry this is important," Kea said, taking a couple steps towards the door. "I'll talk to Mokuba at lunch tomorrow, but this is really serious, I have to go now. Bye."
Kaiba watched the girl dart out of the house, closing the door tightly behind her. He stepped up to the window and watched as Kea threw her mini bookbag into the window of a black stretch limosine that had just pulled up. She went over to the driver, who handed her a small brown paper package, then she jumped into the passanger side and the limo sped off at an unnatural speed.
What is that girl up to, Kaiba thought to himself. He shook it off and just figured that she came from a rich family, or knew someone who had enough money to rent a limo. He tried to dismiss the thought from his mind, but the that had been a very suspicious scene to him, and he made it a priority of his to find out what that was all about.
------------------------------
I know, I know, it sucked! Don't rub it in! Yeesh! Review it anyway, please, it makes me happy when people review. ^_^ ARIGATO!! (Is there a 'U' on the end of that word? I've seen in spelled both ways. Somebody who speaks Japanese please let me know!)
