Chapter 6
~HiKari~
"Ok, Yugi, I trust you, as a friend. And as a friend, I guess you should know." Yugi nodded and placed his hand on HiKari's, "I'm here for you Kari." HiKari nodded, and looked down at her hands. "Yugi, when my mom was pregant with me, most of the people she knew wouldn't believe. Believe that she could make it with 2 kids and a husband as well as finishing collage."
HiKari's eyes started to water, "Then... people started telling her to... to abort me... some even told her with money. They offered $300." Moretears trickled down her face, "Can you believe it? My life... was to only be $300. That was all it took..." HiKari started to cry into her hands.
Yugi put his arms around HiKari. "HiKari... I never knew." HiKari wiped one of the many tears on her face. "Then, Dad was convinced to abort me as well. All mom needed to do... was agree..." Tears kept flowing down her face. She shut her eyes.
"But there was only one who wanted me. One who knew what person I was to be. One who wanted to be a sister..." She looked up to Yugi, tears still falling down her face. "That was Kura..." HiKari said in a low, tearful voice, "Makura Bruder. She was the only person in the world who had ever been there for me. Who ever cared. Than... mom and dad died. We were to be alone forever."
HiKari squeezed her hands together, more tears fell down her face, "Than, we were to be taken away from each other, to be separated. Never to see each other again. But Kura wouldn't let that happen. She said..." HiKari shut her eyes.
"That we were to be forever together. Than we ran off to Japan, thinking it would be better after all this time of rejection in America. I thought I could only trust my sister and no one else. But than I met you, Yugi." HiKari looked up to him.
"Yugi... you changed my life. You and your friends excepted who we are, even though we looked and seemed different. But you showed that there are good people in this bad world, and I will never forget that Yugi." Yugi smiled, a tear trickling down his face.
"HiKari... you don't understand. You weren't different, no, there's a different word for that." HiKari looked up, "What is it?"
"Unique. You are unique in every way, and that's when I, grew to like you... a lot." HiKari titled her head, "What do you mean Yugi." Yugi took up HiKari's hand. "HiKari, I love you. You are so pure, so innocent that so many want to break that innocent love that you share with everyone. You got Kaiba to like you as a friend, and that is miracle."
HiKari smiled, "Thanks Yugi. I like you too." HiKari wiped one last tear. "I have to go now Yugi. Thanks for saving my spirit, but I better see how Kura's doing after all this. I'll see you at the prom." Yugi smiled, "See you there too."
HiKari left the school grounds. Yugi bounced onto his feet, "YES!"
~Makura~
'What the hell does she think she's doing?' Seto thought, being a witness to this strange event. Makura took up the knife and stared at it. "I can't live this any longer..." Makura thrust the sword at her heart. Seto quickly jumped at her. The knife flew in the air.
"Let go!" Makura yelled as she tried breaking free of Seto's grip, tears falling down her face. "I want to die!" Seto slapped her. Makura opened her eyes and notice Seto who had her firmly gripped. "Kaiba?"
Seto slapped her again. Now Makura got angry, "What are you doing here?!"
"I followed you."
"You have no right to walk into my home and stop me in my moment of glory!" Once again, Seto slapped her. Makura turned to him with a glare. "What do you think your doing?" Seto asked. "I..." she was quickly slapped again.
"Do you realize what you almost did?! Do you think of anyone but yourself?" Makura glared at him, "What do you mean?"
"You think just because your life may suck, that you can just kill yourself. Only a coward would try and run away in the manner."
"It would've worked." Seto shook his head, "No it wouldn't have. You would have the guilt." Makura stopped struggling and stared at him. "Guilt?"
"You think that your sister can survive on her own? As far as I'm concerned, she still needs you, and you can't just leave this world without a thought about her after this life." Makura looked down. "HiKari..." Makura looked up, "But..."
"No buts! You would've let her down, and the most thing I know is..." Seto slowly let go, "That's the worst sin you can commit." Makura looked up, so emotional and caring. Makura shook her head, she glared at him. How would he know what she had been through anyway?
"How would you know?!" she asked angrily. "Because I've tried as well." Makura gasped. "But why..."
"Same as you... thought the world was out to get me. Tried to get out of it like a coward. But Mokuba stopped me. I was angry at first, than I realized what he had done. He made me realize what I would do, who I would hurt. Than, I fought on, all the way for my brother."
"That's... beautiful." Seto smirked and help Makura up. "I might as well be going, I've got work to do." Seto headed for the door. "Seto Kaiba." Seto turned to Makura. "Thanks." Seto just nodded and left.

HiKari ran down the sidewalk, happy and free. "Hey! Leave me alone!" HiKari stopped and turned. There was a couple of bullies who were pushing around a kid. Not just any kid, Mokuba. "Oh come on, you should at least fight back you whimp."
"Hey!" they stopped and turned. HiKari stood there, and upright position. "Oh, the stupid sister is here." Suzuki said, walking over to HiKari. "What do you want?"
"I WANT you to leave that kid alone." Suzuki smirked, "You haven't learned your lesson yet, Bruder?" Suzuki cracked his knuckles, "Well, I gonna make sure you learn it." Suzuki was about to punch HiKari in the face when Mokuba plead for him to stop.
"Leave her alone! She did nothing to you!" Mokuba cried. "I've had enough shit out of you for one day." Suzuki turned to Mokuba. He started walking towards him when he was kicked to the ground. He looked up.
"If you wanna fight, let's do it." The bullies all at once started beating up HiKari.
