~Brothers' Elegy~
Final Chapter
Cherry Blossoms Fall to the Brother's Elegy
Pink blossoms fluttered to the ground as the great Seto Kaiba looked out the window. He smiled at the flowers as they fluttered in the wind. Spring. His favorite time of the year. A tug was felt on his sage green yukata, dragons were flowing across the silky fabric. He looked down to see Mokuba smiling up at him, goldfish were diving into the light blue silk of his yukata. The raven-haired boy pulled Seto from the window and led him down the hall.
"Come on Seto, we're going to be late!" Mokuba urged.
"Alright, alright, I'm coming." Seto grinned at his brother.
They walked out the door into the fresh morning air. The wind blew across their faces as the walked. The two made there way through the city and entered the city park. They saw a familiar bunch of people and Mokuba pulled Seto towards the group. Yugi turned around and beamed at the two. Mokuba let go of Seto and ran up to the spiky haired boy. Seto walked up to him casually and flashed a smile at Yugi.
"Seto! It's good to see you again!" chimed a very cheerful Yugi.
"Yes Yugi, it's nice to see you as well." Seto replied in his cool as ice tone of voice.
Yugi grinned at Seto and led him to the others, with Mokuba bouncing to and fro between them. They walked up to the group, Tea`, who was sitting on a blanket, looked up at the Kaiba brother's. Her hair was wrapped neatly in a braid and flowers were strung in her hair. She smiled at Seto and waved to him.
"Hey there, Seto, Mokuba, you're going to play for us later aren't you?" she chirped.
Seto blushed, but he looked away in time to hide it. Mokuba smiled and ran up to her.
"Of course, me and Seto will play for you Tea`!" he giggled.
Duke, Serenity, and Tristan were sitting under a tree. Duke was asking Serenity to pour him some tea, but was interrupted by Tristan, who wanted Serenity to look at the lake with him. Serenity spotted Seto and Mokuba and ran up to greet them.
"Hello Seto, it's nice to see you!" She smiled. Seto smiled back at her and looked behind her to see Duke and Tristan fighting each other.
"It looks like you have your hands full, Serenity." he smirked.
She sighed and smiled back, her face beat red. She then looked to Mokuba for help.
"Mokuba, hey! How about we go up to the shrine and make a wish?" she asked in her sweetest voice.
Mokuba blushed at her and looked up to Seto. Seto chuckled at his brother and nodded. The two ran off up to the shrine. Just as they left Duke and Tristan had walked up to Seto.
"Hey, Seto, do you know where Serenity went?" they asked in unison.
Seto's eyes flashed with an idea. He snickered then put on his game face.
"Yes, she just ran past here, said she was going to the lake," he started.
Duke and Tristan were about to run off when Seto stopped them.
"A boy was with her, she asked me not to let you guys follow her though....." he added, chuckling to himself.
The two looked at him as if he had hit them over the head with a mallet. They crumbled to the ground.
"Serenity, is with another man?" Duke moaned.
"They, went to the lake? That was my idea....." Tristan whimpered.
Seto cocked an eyebrow at the two. They sure were strange. He didn't get why they went after Serenity. She was like a year or two older than Mokuba. He snickered at the thought. They probably couldn't find anyone their own age.......
He walked away snickering to himself. Duke and Tristan still crying on the ground. Joey had walked by in time to see Seto walk away chuckling. He raced in front of the CEO and glared.
"Yo, moneybags, whad did ya do to dem?" he said pointing over to the two mud puddles Duke and Tristan.
"I only stopped them from bugging your sister...........mutt." Seto couldn't help but add the fact that Joey was still as canine as ever.
Joey only paused and looked oddly at Seto.
"What do ya mean?"
Seto walked over to Joey and moved over to his ear.
"They were tryin' to score wit ya sista, so I let dem think she's wit another guy, by the lake. When actually she's wit Mokuba at da shrine. So don't worry about it Joey." Seto whispered teasingly to the confused Joey. The blonde just stared back at him, sort of in shock at what he had just heard. Seto only chuckled and walked toward the others.
"Yo Seto!" Joey called after the brunette.
Seto stopped but didn't turn around. Joey smiled at his back and winked.
"Thanks."
"Even a dog deserves a break now and then." Seto replied as he walked off. Joey scowled cheerfully after him and ran off through the park.
Seto went back and settled near a tree. Ryou, Yugi, and Tea` were already there chatting there. They looked up and smiled at Seto as he sat down.
"Eh Seto, bloody nice day for a festival, don't you agree?"
"Yes, it really is a nice day....." Seto trailed.
Seto cocked an eyebrow at the two coming to greet them. Mai was leading Joey over by the collar, her face tinted red. They nearly fell over Ryou on their way down. Mai giggled and smacked Joey upside the head. Seto cringed, that looked painful. He chuckled to himself, Mai was already into the alcohol, he didn't even know if she was old enough to drink yet........
"Seto, hey, how about a little drink?" Mai asked as she held up a cup of fowl smelling liquid. Seto only stared back at her. He looked away to see Joey, steam was practically coming out of his ears. A sigh was heard as Seto got up and led Mai over to Joey, sitting her next to him.
"Mai, how about you give Joey a drink, I think he needs to "relax" a bit."
_____________________________
After a while of friendly talk and some lunch, the gang was relaxing together, the gentle breeze whipped across the park, blowing cherry blossoms all over the place. They floated downward, some landing on Mokuba and Serenity who were talking together by the lake now. They floated on the heads of Tristan and Duke who were secretly watching them. They landed on Seto's nose as he was resting on a tree. Glancing now and then at Mokuba and Serenity, then at Duke and Tristan, making sure they didn't interrupt the two by the lake. They blew across Yugi, Tea`, and Ryou who were picking out fans for everyone at a nearby shop. The sweet blossoms landed in the drinks of Joey and Mai, who were giggling together, watching as the cherry blossoms fell.
Yugi, Tea`, and Ryou raced back to the group, fans in hand. Yugi ran over to Joey and gave him a fan with a flame pattern on it, then he gave Mai a flower shaped fan. He ran over to Duke and Tristan, he looked at them oddly and handed Duke a dice pattern fan and Tristan a fan with mountains on it.
Ryou ran up to Mokuba and Serenity and cheerfully handed them each a fan. Mokuba's had goldfish on it to match his yukata and handed Serenity a cherry blossom fan. He smiled and ran back with Yugi.
A cool breeze blew across Seto's face, his eyes flickered opened to reveal a blue fan with a picture of a dragon on it, held by a girl with chocolate hair. He looked up at her oddly. She dropped the fan onto his face and snickered.
"I thought you might like this one, here."
"Thanks........"
"You brought your violin didn't you?" the girl asked.
Seto picked the fan off his face and sat up. He raised a finger and pointed over to Yugi, next to him was his sleek black violin case.
"I see, well than after you wake up, you and Mokuba can play for us!" she chirped.
Seto nodded, he let his eyelids cover his blue eyes as he drifted back to sleep. He heard a giggle as Tea` ran off to join the others.
_______________________
"Seto! Wake up!" a voice called, it was cheerful and light.
Seto woke to see Serenity and Mokuba staring down at him.
"Come on sleepy head, it's almost time for the festival music!" Serenity chirped.
Mokuba grinned at his brother and then jumped onto him. He pulled out his bamboo flute from his pocket and played a short tune. Seto smiled at his brother and pushed him off himself, Mokuba jumped off Seto and pulled him onto his feet. The two led him over to where the group was waiting. They were all eagerly awaiting the music of Seto and Mokuba. Seto blushed slightly as they cheered when he began to unlock his violin and held it up to his cheek. He looked to Mokuba who was ready, his flute gently placed in his hands. He motioned for them to begin.
Everyone was silent as Seto and Mokuba played. A sweet melody came from the violin as Seto stroked the strings with the wand of the violin. Mokuba's bamboo flute complementing his brother's tune as they went. Everyone was in silent awe as the brother's played their elegy. They continued to play till darkness crept up on them. Evening fell and the music came to a stop. The boy's were both complimented to no end after they had finished. Duke and Tristan fuming when Serenity kissed Mokuba sweetly on the cheek.
The moon rose over the lake and the water sparkled like diamonds. The gang watched as the moon rose higher into the sky. Mokuba was asleep next to Serenity, Tristan and Duke were tied up by Joey and Seto, who had thrown them somewhere in the woods. Mai was chatting with Joey and Ryou. Yugi, Tea` and Seto were silently watching the stars together. The night couldn't have gotten any better.
As Seto looked up at the stars that night, his thoughts weren't plagued by his company, or thoughts of the past. Instead he only thought about the memory of this wonderful day. Seto's ice blue eyes glittered in the moonlight as he watched the sky. A flash of light had flickered across his eyes.
A shooting star.
He closed his eyes and wished to himself.
'I wish to keep the memory of how I feel right now, forever...'
