"So, how did last night go?"
Seto smiled. " Just fine Mokuba, just fine."
Mokuba nodded. "So, what did Mr. Krieg want?"
Seto chuckled. "We're just setting something up."
"And you won't tell your own brother?" Seto turned to see Tea leaning against the door. "And I thought I knew you."
"Hey, back off. This is business."
"Sure it is." Tea said with a wink.
Mokuba sighed. "I am too young to see this stuff. I'm going out." Mokuba grabbed his bag and headed out of the apartment. Tea sat down in the chair he had been in and looked back at Seto. "So, what exactly is "business"?"
Seto sighed. "Your not going to let this go, are you?"
"Oh, you know me so well!" Tea said with a laugh. "Now, are you going to tell me, or do I have to lecture you on what it means to be a friend?"
"NO! NOT THAT!" Seto said quickly. He recomposed himself, and then sighed. " You remember my new business partner, don't you?"
"Agile, the guy who owns duelmonsterrealms.com?"
Seto nodded. "Yea. Anyway, he wanted to sponsor a tournament, and he had contected Guy. So, we set up a meeting, and at the end, for the first time ever, KabiaCorp, Roads INC, Illusion Industries and Realm Creators will be allied for the greatest tournament ever."
Tea looked at him. "Don't mean to sound rude...but how will this be any different then Battle City?"
Seto faltered. " You.you understand how big this is? The 4 biggest Duel Monster Businesses are all working together here!" Seto began to pace. "Do you. do you realize how amazing this is?"
"So.is this the same as battle city or what?"
Seto sat down. "You are impossible."
Tea sighed. "I was just kidding. I'm glad that it all worked out for you. I'm just worried that people will be annoyed that it's just Battle City Version 2.0?"
Seto grinned at this. "Acually, I was going to keep it a secret.."
Tea walked over to him and put a hand on his shoulder. "Yes...?"
" Guy has suggested we use the rules his father made."
Tea paused, and Seto could see the color leave her face. For the last two months, Tea had been getting better and better about Geno, but the pain was still there. It had been bad for the first two weeks, she hadn't left her room. In the end, she had just shown up on Seto's door step, crying. HE had done what he could..and the rest was history.
Tea looked at him. "Its..its ok. Really." She said, trying to sound more asure of herself then she really was. "What are the rules?"
"Truth be told.I don't know." HE laughed. "Guy doesn't even know. All he knows is that his father was working on it all the time, testing it and making sure ti was amazing. Guy found the disk the rules were on a few days ago. So, I'm right now running a few programs on it, and if the computer says it works, we'll be putting the program up."
"So, the great Seto Kabia is going to play fair?"
Seto laughed. "Everyone will. This will be wild, discovering the rules as we go along. Come on, lets go out and celerbrate" Tea nodded, and headed for the door as Seto followed. In his mind, one thought rang through:
"This will show who the true duelist are. No one knows the rules, and they.we'll all have to adopt." He smiled. " That is.unless the ghost of Geno Roads arises."
Seto smiled. " Just fine Mokuba, just fine."
Mokuba nodded. "So, what did Mr. Krieg want?"
Seto chuckled. "We're just setting something up."
"And you won't tell your own brother?" Seto turned to see Tea leaning against the door. "And I thought I knew you."
