Chapter Two: 4 Days to go.
Disclaimer: I do not own Yugioh, yada yada yada.
"I win again Kaiba-kun."
"Oh man, you are getting good 'Gami." Kyra Kaiba smiled as she sat at the end of the hospital bed across from a girl with long violet hair that reached her hips and a pair of shining purple eyes that blinked once or twice behind a pair of glasses with black rims. The other girl was very pale and very thin, even more so then Kaiba was. She was shorter then Kaiba as well, infact when the two stood side by side, the other girl only reached Kyra's shoulder. This girl, whom Kyra called 'Gami, is Yugami Mira Ociana Hiya Allen Oshikara Motto. Long name ne?
"Who knows Kaiba-kun, I might just be good enough to beat you one day." She smiled brightly and pushed her glasses up her nose just a bit so that they rested on the bridge. Kyra smiled and nodded.
"You never know kido.you just might." She said softly and crossed her arms. Kyra had on a long dark blue trench coat with a black sleeveless shirt underneath and a necklace around her neck that had a small locket at the end that looked just like a Duel Monster Card. Kyra sighed softly and ran a hand through her auburn hair, her icy blue eyes slipping shut for a moment or so.
"So.how long till you are out of here this time 'Gami?" She asked, her eyes reopening as she looked at her friend. Her eyes were different now.filled with compassion and loves, unlike they were when she would duel. This was a side that she only let her best friend see, no one else.
"Only a day Kaiba-kun.they just have a few tests to run and then I should be set to go." Yugami said and smiled just the same. "I will be out before my birthday, so that is a good thing." She said and leaned back on the semi inclined bed and raised her arms, folding them behind her head as she did so.
"I see.so what do you want for your birthday kido? You will be 16 right?" Kyra asked a small smile tugging at the ends of her lips.
"I don't know Kaiba-kun.I mean my birthday is still 4 days away." Yugami said as she pulled her knees up to her chest. "Oh.and I tried calling last night Kaiba.but you weren't there." She said and looked over to the brunette.
"I was working.and speaking of which.I have to get going.sorry kido." Kyra said and got to her feet. She walked over and wrapped her arms around the small girl, hugging her. "Call me if something happens.on my mobile.I'll be over ASAP." She said as she let the other go and smiled softly to her. Kyra wasn't about to tell Yugami about her little duel last night, and in fact she had never even told the other that she was a Death Dueler.
"Okay Kaiba-kun.I will. Oh and say hi to Meitanti for me will you?" Yugami asked as she looked at Kyra. Kyra nodded and smiled.
"Yeah, sure kid." She said softly and left the hospital room, heading for the elevator. She pressed the down button and waited, slipping her hands into the pockets of her trench coat. The light just above the elevator dinged and the doors slid open. Kyra walked inside and looked out towards the massive city that was Domino.
The city was beautiful today; more so then it was at night. The sun was up and hung high above all the skyscrapers that seemed to nearly reach the heavens. But still, something tugged at Kyra's mind. Something was still bugging her. 'I can't just keep on going easy on her.there will come a day when I will have to duel her for real, and then.what if she isn't strong enough after that?' Kyra thought to herself and sighed. The elevator dinged and the doors slid open at the ground level of the hospital. She slipped her hands into the pockets of her trench coat and headed to the exit of the hospital.
The large glass doors moved aside, as Kyra walked out and before her was a long stretch limo. It was not hers, she knew that at the least. None of her limo's were white. The back window slid open and a woman's voice called out to Kyra. "Kaiba, I need a moment with you." A scowl crossed Kyra's face as she simply nodded to the voice and walked over to the limozene, opened the back door and stepped inside.
Inside the car was a girl with pale, nearly ivory skin. She had long platinum hair that reached just past her shoulders and Grey to blue eyes that were much lighter then Kyra's. The woman was in her early 20's, 21 to be exact, only a year older then Kyra and had on a short maroon skirt and a long sleeved button up white shirt. At her neck hung something familiar, the Millennium Eye.
Across from the woman was a boy about one year younger then Kyra, making him 19. He had the same color skin as the white haired girl, but unlike her his eyes were a blood red color and his hair was a very white shade of blonde. He had on a long sleeve blue turtleneck sweater and a pair of ash Grey pants. "Hi Kyra." He smiled and gave her a small wave. Kyra said nothing, infact she didn't even acknowledge the other was there. He let his smile drop and returned to looking back out the window.
"So Maxine and Matthew Pegasus, to what do I owe the displeasure?" Kyra said softly and shifted her eyes to the girl, Maxine Juliana Pegasus.
"Oh Kaiba.you are always so mean to me. What could I have possibly done to make you so hateful to me?" Maxine said, her British accent was very evident when she spoke, unlike when her younger brother spoke.
"I just don't like you."
"Oh.is that so. Well maybe you should stop playing nice with Motto.I mean one of these days she will be your downfall. If you do not give it your all when you duel against her, how can you expect her to get any better?" Maxine asked, a cruel smile playing at her lips. Kyra apparently didn't like that. She leaned over and grabbed Maxine by the collar of her shirt and pulled her closer.
"Listen to me right now Maxine.I am not going to put up with you always watching over me and I will certainly not put up with you peering into my mind and reading my thoughts! Do I make myself clear!?" Kyra asked as she glared at the other, her icy blue eyes peering at the other with hate and malice. Maxine nodded and Kyra's grip slowly let her go.
Matthew looked over to Kyra and sighed a bit. "Just hear her out Kyra, she is just looking out for Yugami's best interest. We all know she will be the next one.and well that Pharaoh isn't going to be able to handle everything by himself. Dueling has changed ever since he dueled, and well, he might need a bit of backup. The Death Duelers are not the easiest people to beat, and in order for the legend to come true, she will have to beat all of them.including you." Matthew said softly, being very careful not to make the auburn girl angry.
"Don't you think I know that?" Kyra asked with a small huff as she felt her patience come back to her. "Did you ever just think I might not be willing to give up my best friend to the fate of some stranger just yet? And her condition might get worse.she is not the strongest person in the world you know? That is why I had to bring her here, to Domino, away from everything she knew back in Cairo." Kyra said and looked outside the window. " I took her away from her only family, made her leave all her friends there and dragger her here, where she knows no one and is a complete loner. Some friend I am." She said sadly, her eyes showing regret and worry.
Matthew leaned over and placed a hand to her shoulder. "But, Kyra, you did it cause you care that much for her. Remember, if she weren't able to come here, she would not have the doctors she needs to take care of her condition. You know that and so does she." He said and gave her a soft smile. Kyra's face turned to the other and she looked at him.
"Thanks." Kyra said softly and nodded. Maxine groaned and pushed the two apart.
"Can we get back to the business at hand? Now listen, I have gathered the list of possible."
"Can we just skip this for now Max? I have better things to do. I will pick up the box from Brood and give it to Yugami on her birthday, all right? We can worry about the details later." Kyra said and interrupted Maxine. She leaned over and knocked on the window between them and the driver, telling him to stop. The car stopped a block from Kaiba Corp and Kyra opened the door and got out of the car.
"Be here on the day after the 25th.in other words, the day after Yuga's Birthday.no later. " Kyra said and shut the door and watched the white limo drive away from her company.
Maxine smiled and laughed a bit as she leaned back against her seat, her eyes slipping shut. "My, my, Kaiba has changed, hasn't she. To think, she has never been this nice to me.I usually am lucky if I get away with a bruise or two."
"Maybe if you were nice, she would have reason to be nicer." Matthew said and sighed softly. Maxine's eyes opened and she shook her head.
"Heh, oh really Matthew? You are always nice to Kaiba and look where it gets you. Your feelings for her stay locked up inside and you get more and more pathetic every time..." Maxine said and looked out her window. "Four days.then the real fun can begin."
