Chapter 3

"Mokuba? What happened?" Seto asked as he noticed a cut on his forehead, a scrape on his knee, and a black eye. It was proven, Mokuba looked horrible.
"Well?" Mokuba looked up from laying sideways on his head, which was rested on the table.
"What?"
"What happened to you?"
"Nothing" now Seto gave him an angry face. Mokuba was playing him as if he was born yesterday, and Seto was the older, more dominant brother.
"Mokuba, tell me what happened at school" Seto said, now with a more demand in his voice.
"Nothing" Mokuba now said with a more defensive way. Seto crossed his arms, he started to tap his foot. He usually did that when he was angry, but keeping most of it in.
"Mokuba" Seto said more sternly. Mokuba lifted up his head from the table.
"What?"
"Mokuba!"
"What do you want?!" now Seto was glaring at Mokuba. Mokuba going a little off the edge.
"What happened to turn you out like this?"
"Nothing! Now leave me alone!" Mokuba got up from the table and starting walking up to his room.
"Mokuba! Get back here!"
"Shut up! I don't want to talk to you ever again!" now Mokuba ran to his room. He slammed the door as he entered his room. Where was all this anger coming from? Was he actually angry at Niomi? If so, why was he taking it out on his brother, the one person that has and always will be standing by him?
Mokuba couldn't understand. Couldn't understand his anger, and his love. Or did he love anymore? Life wasn't making sense anymore.
A few hours had gone by, and Mokuba still sat in the same position. It wasn't like he was bored or anything, he was just too deep in thought. Seto then called up for him.
"Mokuba! You have to at least eat dinner!" Dinner? Already? Had he been lost in thought for that long? But for some reason, he didn't feel as if he could eat anything at all. He felt sick to his stomach now to think of it.
Even so, Mokuba didn't answer. For some odd reason, he was going to keep his promise to himself, never to talk to Seto again. Mokuba could hear the footsteps of someone walking towards his room. Mokuba prepared for the worst.
"Mokuba, what happened?! This isn't like you?!" Mokuba turned on his side, so that his back would face Seto. Mokuba soon felt a hand grab his arm and turn him so that he was facing Seto.
"Mokuba!" Mokuba kicked Seto in the stomach, hard. Seto released Mokuba's arm and was blown a few steps backwards. Mokuba had launched a full-powered kick... at Seto. Seto stood there with shock. Mokuba just glared at Seto, keeping his ground. Mokuba, realizing what he had done, fell to the ground.
"I-I'm sorry, Big Brother..." Mokuba was on his hands and knees. Tears trickled down his cheeks. Seto stood there, watching his kid brother cry on his hands and knees. Seto would've went over and comforted him, but Mokuba had never done such a thing as this before.
Seto just glared at Mokuba, then turned for the door. He was about to exit Mouba's room, when he felt a tug on his trenchcoat. Seto turned and looked down. His brother was still crying, but this time was trying to make out words.
"P-Please Big B-Brother, don't leave me like Mom, Dad, and Niomi did. I hate being... alone." Seto kneeled down in front of Mokuba. Mokuba fell into Seto's shoulder, crying into his trenchcoat. Seto lifted his hands and placed them on Mokuba's back.
"I'm s-sorry S-Seto, this is all my fault. E-Everything is. Y-You almost l-losing your c-company. Y-You losing Mom. Y-You almost l-losing that duel to N-Noah. Y-You l-losing a g-good family that could've adopted y- you. Y-You losing..."
"Mokuba, ssh. Don't waist your energy." Seto whispered Mokuba now let himself completely fall into Seto's arms. Seto held him close. Mokuba still had his head stuffed into Seto's trenchcoat. Seto closed his eyes and rested his head on Mokuba's.
Before long, Mokuba had fallen asleep in Seto's arms. Seto opened his eyes, realizing how quiet it had gotten since Mokuba had stopped crying. Seto scooped Mokuba up and walked him to his bed. Seto laid Mokuba on his bed. Seto stroked his hand through his hair before heading out of the room.
"Big Brother?" Seto turned to Mokuba's tear-stained face. Seto gave Mokuba a warm smile and walked over to Mokuba's bed. Mokuba sat himself upright as Seto sat next to Mokuba.
"Yeah Kiddo?"
"I'm sorry."
"You don't need to be Mokuba."
"Yes I do!" Mokuba said it with an offensive tone. Seto stared at Mokuba for a while. Mokuba looked down, "Sorry."
"Mokuba, all that stuff that happened wasn't your fault."
"Ye..."
"No it wasn't. I would've risked my company any day to get your soul back. Mom chose to have you, and I'm happy she did. I would've lost a duel any time if it ment having you back on my side cheering me on all the way. I couldn't have made it if we were separated. I couldn't live knowing you weren't with me. Because I love you, and I always will."
Mokuba looked down so that his eyes were shaded. A tear fell down his face.
"I love you too, Big Brother. I couldn't live without you!" Mokuba looked up in his brother daring blue eyes. Mokuba hugged Seto as hard as he could. Mokuba was now feeling drowsy from all this crying and sadness.
"And I, you." Was all Mokuba heard before falling into a deep sleep. ************************************************************************ Well, I'd like to thank Greenwood Dancer for reviewing.
