Chapter 2: Lunch BreakIn the kitchen of a mansion, a young, black-haired boy was making a chicken salad sandwich. When he finished, he loaded a stainless-steel tray with a bag of pretzels, the sandwich, and a tall glass of iced tea. The boy picked up the tray and began to carry it carefully down the hall. He stopped in front of a door near the end, and knocked on it twice.
"What now?" asked a slightly irritated voice from inside.
"It's me, Seto," said the boy. "I brought you some lunch."
"Come in," said the voice, losing some of its annoyance at being interrupted when it recognized the boy's voice.
The boy opened the door and stepped into Seto's office. The room had rich wooden paneling, giving it a very elegant appearance. Nearly-filled bookcases stretched out from either side of the door, while the back wall was made entirely of windows that had a breathtaking view of the city of Domino. The boy put the tray down on a small table near the door. His older brother sat at a large wooden desk, with his back to the windows. Seto Kaiba, usually just referred to as Kaiba by everyone except his brother, was far too busy at his computer to notice the beautiful view behind him.
"Seto, you've been shut up in your office working for almost a week now," said the boy. "You should take a break."
"I've got a company to run, Mokuba," said Seto. "It's been crazy all week."
"I know, but it's slowing down now," replied Mokuba. "Couldn't you just take the rest of the day off?"
"Well . . ." said Seto.
"We could go for a ride in the copter, just the two of us!" pleaded Mokuba. "I've hardly seen you at all in nearly a month! Please?"
"Alright, Mokuba," Seto gave in. He could never refuse his younger brother. "Just give me an hour to finish this up."
"Thanks, big brother! You're the best!" smiled Mokuba as he left.
Mokuba was right, thought Seto. I haven't spent much time with him lately. Maybe I can make up for it. Besides, I've gotten all the work for the whole weekend taken care of. We'll go for a short ride over the ocean. We've only been there once, and Mokuba loved it.
He got up from his desk and pressed a button on the wall. Almost immediately, a guy in a black suit and dark sunglasses appeared.
"Mokuba and I will be taking the copter for a ride. I trust that you will keep
things running smoothly while I'm gone?" asked Seto as he pulled his navy blue trench coat on over his khaki clothes.
"Of course, sir," the employee answered.
"Good," said Seto. "Ready the copter; we're leaving now."
Ok, that's it for the second chapter (yes, I know it is annoyingly short), but if you review, I promise to get the next chapter up tomorrow!
