Chapter 3
Kaiba cautiously opened the door to the other room across the hallway. Inside, a girl was standing there in a light T-shirt and an old pair of faded blue jeans. Her back was to him, so all Kaiba could see was her long brown hair that reached the middle of her back. It had a ripple in it about the height of where it would have been pulled back by a rubber band. Her arms were wrapped around her and she was shivering from what Kaiba assumed to be the invisible (and dry feeling (that is, in here)) cold water he felt running down his skin.
"Who are you?" he said, startling her.
"Chea… I'm Chea Johnson. Who are you?" she said, turning around; her voice sounded like the one he heard earlier in the shower.
"Kaiba."
"Oh, very funny. You expect me to believe that?" Sarcasm dripped from her voice, her cobalt blue eyes fierce and flinty. Kaiba suddenly realized that she looked like a female version of him.
"What do you mean? I am Kaiba."
"God, you are mental or trying to pull off a Halloween prank. Sorry, pal, Halloween isn't for a few months. Seto Kaiba is naught but an Anime character. Any fool who watches the show knows that!" Chea seemed to not grasp the idea that this was the real Seto Kaiba standing in front of her.
"You're the one that's mental. An Anime character? Please. You're worse than the baka inu with those dumb stories!" Kaiba was getting mad. This girl was insulting him by saying he wasn't real!
Suddenly, they both blinked at the exact same moment. Faintly, they heard a voice calling out to them. "Niisama? You okay? Talk to me, big brother!"
A single word escaped from Seto Kaiba's lips at that moment. "Mokuba…" Suddenly, Kaiba vanished from the room and went back to the real world, where he suddenly discovered he was freezing his (now naked) ass off.
"Niisama? Please, talk to me!!!"
"Calm down, Mokuba. I'm fine." Kaiba stepped out of the shower and quickly wrapped a towel around his waist (much to the disappointment to rabid fan girls everywhere!) and walked back into his bedroom. The storm gray-eyed boy Kaiba called brother followed closely behind, wanting to make sure his niisama would be just fine.
Kaiba hurriedly pulled on some clothes and continued to tell Mokuba he was all right. "But, Seto, you wouldn't talk to me for five minutes. Your eyes were kinda glazed over like Yuugi's when he talks to Yami." Kaiba knew that that girl Chea was listening. He could feel it. Wonder and disbelief was flooding into his mind, distracting him from Mokuba.
"Well, I guess—" Kaiba started to say, but he was cut off.
"Maybe you should go talk to Yami and Yuugi! They could…help…" Mokuba faltered under his brother's gaze.
"I will not get any help from those two," Kaiba growled out.
"Gomen, niisama," Mokuba said, lowering his eyes. He turned and left the room.
{{Gosh…You sure are a bastard, aren't you?}} Chea said from her soul room.
