I'll Be Home For Christmas
Chapter 2-On The "Naughty" List
Seto shook his head from his queer thoughts. There would be no way in hell that he, CEO of KaibaCorp, Seto Kaiba, would give Christmas an inch. For when you gave something an inch, it would take a mile. And before you would know it, he would be a Christmas beatnik like Yugi and his childish friends. Or so he assumed. It was November 30th, the day before the 1st of December, and a partridge would be in a pear tree. Deciding to get a drink of water from the kitchen before bed, Seto slinked into the kitchen where he found Mokuba.
"G'night, Big Brother." Mokuba called out, leaving the kitchen. As he opened the door to exit, the silver bells on the knob gave multiple rings, causing Seto to shudder at the obnoxious noise. How could anyone like the pings and pangs of those horrible bells? This was another thing Seto didn't understand about Christmas. But then, the most confusing thing to him was...Santa Claus. St. Nicolas, Jolly Ol' Saint Nick, Father Christmas, Hoteiosho, Noel, Old Man Christmas, The Ho-Ho Man, etc. etc.
"Say, Mokuba." Seto said, glancing at the statue of Santa Claus on the table, "What is this gluten doing on my table? Do you want me to be ill while I'm eating?"
"That's Santa Claus! He lives at the North Pole..." Mokuba replied, rubbing his eyes.
"The North Pole, hmm? And what does he do at such an antarctic place?"
"He does a lot of things, Seto. Like have his elves build toys for Christmas. But I have to go to bed. G'night." Mokuba rubbed his eyes once more, and then headed towards his bedroom.
"Good night, Mokuba." Seto said to thin air, wondering if Mokuba actually believed of a fat man that lives at antarctic temperatures that has elves that build toys. "Ha! What a joke. What was the drug that the guy that made up this foolish creature on?" Seto thought to himself, grimly. He didn't have time to continue cracking jokes about it. He did have school tomorrow.
~*~
"Six forty-five am!!" Seto's alarm clock shouted. He pressed the rest button, too tired to wake up. He woke up in the middle of the night because of a horrible dream he had where he woke up and every trench coat in his closet was red and green or covered in snowmen. It was hard to go back to sleep after that.
Mokuba walked into Seto's room, noticing he wasn't up. He shook him back and forth, but he did not wake up. So, he went up to Seto's ear. Very close. And then he leaned over and screeched, "SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" But Seto remained silent. Mokuba snapped his fingers, then thought of a plan.
"Whoa, I cannot believe Joey Wheeler beat Seto Kaiba so easily!" Mokuba said quietly. Seto instantly bolted up.
"Wha-What!?!? What happened, Mokuba?" Seto asked furiously, hearing his worst nightmare come true.
"Aww, nothing. Just needed to say something to get you up for school."
"Thank you, Mokuba." Seto replied, slightly irritated to hear him say such things.
~*~
Seto Kaiba stepped into the classroom. He was 5 minutes late. Everyone stared as he sat down in the only remaining seat: Next to Yugi and Tea, Behind Duke, and in front of the horrible, ignorant, chihuahua himself, Joey Wheeler. Tristan usually sat where he did, but he was in a fight with Joey so he was across the room. He tried to forget where he was and attempted to focus on the teacher. The teacher began explaining when Seto received a tap on the shoulder.
"Psst, Kaiba! What's the answer to numba...Uhm....." Joey attempted to whisper.
"Mutt, if you don't shut up right now..." Kaiba threatened as the teacher gave them the "evil eye" for disrupting. He continued as Seto tried to forget that that puppy touched him. But he wouldn't for long.
"Psst, Kaiba! What's the answer to numba six??" Joey asked, completely unstealthily.
"You mutt! Will you please-"
"Ok, that would be enough out of you two's mouths. I will be seeing you in detention after school." The teacher ordered.
"Yes, sir." They both replied. This was a new thing for Seto. He usually kept to himself during school unless it meant harassing Joey or prying some girl off of him. Seto felt as if a vein would pop in his head. Mokuba would be worried about him. His clean record, ruined. But, he did have more time to brace himself before he walked into the North Pole, a.k.a. his mansion.
~*~
"I can't believe I'm stuck in a room for a half hour with the Mutt..." Seto mumbled to himself.
Joey gave a huge yawn, sprawled in a desk next to Seto's. He started snoring, really, really loud. Then mumbled, "What the hell? Where's the pepperoni...No kiwi, pepperoni!" He then fell out of his chair, on the floor, underneath the desk, and remained asleep.
"Shut up, dog." Seto muttered as someone walking in the room, he looked down, praying that it wasn't a teacher. He refused to look up. No more detentions with Wheeler for him.
"Excuse m-, wait. I know you. Do you know where my brother is?" The red-haired girl asked, looking around the room for her brother.
"Ah, is it not the chihuahua's sibling...?" Seto replied, grinning evilly.
"Just spill it Kaiba. Where is Joey?" She asked, annoyed, until she heard the sound of him snoring.
"Just follow the snore of the sleeping idiot..." He mumbled, rolling his eyes.
"Thank you, Kaiba. I'm sure you're on Santa's 'nice' list, being the kind-hearted, loving, soul you are." Serenity replied, sarcastically, shaking Joey back and forth.
"What the hell is so good about Santa? People keep raving about this pitiful made-up holiday where a fat man dressed in red suit breaks into your house!" Seto shouted, expecting an answer from the two idiots. And he did receive one.
"Why you! Don't say such mean things about Santa! Of course he isn't real. But it's still a fun holiday. You learn how giving is better then rec-" Serenity replied angrily before she was interrupted with Joey's sniffs.
"Wha-What? Santa isn't real? But mom said...Oh, that makes sense. That's why dad never got a visit from Santa. He was the bastard, drunk, idiot father. Sort of like you, Kaiba." Joey snickered, "Well, you won't be getting ANYTHING from Santa unlike me, eh Kaiba? Ha ha! Kaiba's on the naughty list!"
"Why would I waste my time on such a pitiful, unoriginal holiday? Never...I'm leaving. Goodbye, mutt and mutt's sister." He said, picking up his books.
"My name is Serenity! Not 'mutt's sister'!" Serenity shouted. Kaiba just cackled. She looked at her brother, "How can someone be so mean?"
"I dunno sis, let's go home."
~*~
W-W-Whoa! I made Seto Kaiba so cruel! Heh. He is though, isn't he? Thanks again for all the wonderful reviews! I cherish them all! Thanks!
