"Kyara! Welcome back!" Mokuba cried as she and Seto stepped through the front door.
She winked at the little boy. "Miss me?"
"Not as much as Seto here!" Mokuba replied.
Behind Mokuba's older brother, Kyara tittered. "Oh, really?"
Kaiba coughed and shook his head. "I think we should be getting back to work. See ya later, Mokuba."
"I'm sorry about my brother." Seto said apologetically as the two of them headed down the hall.
Kyara gave an appreciative laugh. "I don't mind, I think he's adorable."

With a sigh, Kyara blew a strand of her hair out of her face. "Hand me that screwdriver, Seto."
Kaiba obliged and passed the tool across the table. Her tongue sticking out of the corner of her mouth in concentration, Kyara screwed together the last few pieces. "There!" she sighed again. "Its done."
Her partner leaned across the table to glance at their finished piece. "Shall we test it out?"
"Yea. Reach into my bag and grab my dueling deck, will ya?"
"Here."
After snatching a card from the pile, Kyara stuck it into the Card Translator's slot. "This card's in chinese, let's see if it'll work." They waited.
After an agonizing moment, a slightly fuzzy image of a pale, green-haired fairy with runic tatooes on her face appeared above the miniscule holographic generators.
"Gyakutenno Megami." the Translator's nasal-sounding voice reported. "Level: Six. Type: Fairy. Element: Light." it paused, and the 3-D image slowly rotated in a clockwise circle. "This fairy uses her mystical power to protect the weak and provide spiritual report. Attack: 1800. Defense: 2000."

(A/N: Yes, Gyakutenno Megami is a real card. If you want it, you can find it in Kaiba's Starter Deck.)

Kyara nodded in satisfaction. "Works for me." she then frowned. "Still, It looks too 'home made' for me, you can still see all the inner parts such as the wires and such."
"I can solve that problem." Kaiba rose from his seat and retrieved something from a nearby shelf. "Here."
Kyara took the silver colored objects Kaiba handed her. "Ah, I see! Metal casings! Very clever."
"Yea." Seto began fitting the casings on as he spoke. "I put a double K insignia onto the front."
"Why?"
He threw her a slightly exasperated look. "Why else? The first 'K' stands for Kaiba. The second-"
"'Kyara'?"
Seto grinned. "You got it."
"Lovely."
"There." Kaiba gently set the Translator back onto the table. "Finished."
"A week early too!"
For a minute, the two stood side-by-side, as if unsure of what to do next. Kyara looked at her watch. "Oh, it's 7-o-clock. I gotta go."
Kaiba nodded and followed her out of the workroom. "I'll see you tomorrow then?" he asked.
Kyara stopped and stared at him. Something about his tone startled her. She tried to scan his eyes for clues, but they were unreadable. She nodded and opened the front door. "Yeah."
The sound of rapid footsteps was heard. "See ya later, Kyara!" Mokuba's familiar voice cried.
She waved back at the cheerful youth.
Later Mokuba. Kyara thought. As for that brother of yours, I'm not so sure...
Behind her, Kaiba shut the door behind her and heaved a great sigh. He felt so tired now. But after a good night's sleep, he would be ready to take on the world as usual. Little did he know, though, Kyara was the cause for his sleepnessness at night.
