Chapter Three: Welcome to Mahan, China!

***************************

Ten hours later, they arrived in Mahan City Airport, China.

After her dream, Katsu wouldn't look Kaiba in the face, or even talk to him. For Kaiba, hell, he didn't care. He was just he finally got some peace and quiet.

They stepped off the plane, their duffel bag, or suitcase in hand. It depended on whom you'd be talking about.

"…How long until we reach the hotel?" Katsu asked, her first words to him in eight hours. He glanced back.

"And here I was hoping you'd lost the ability to speak." He smirked. Katsu flushed.

"Shut up!"

"Tsk, tsk. Not a tone befitting lady, now is it?" He teased. Katsu was about to make a smart reply, when she closed her mouth, glaring.

"Just tell me when we're gonna get to this dumb hotel!" She snapped. Kaiba chuckled faintly.

"In about twenty minuets." He said, stepping inside the limo. Katsu huffed.

"What happened to 'ladies first'?" She grumbled. Kaiba sneered.

"If you haven't noticed, you act nothing like a lady." Katsu gaped at his words, thinking he'd figured it out for a second. Kaiba chuckled. "You act offended. I'm surprised you haven't slapped me again." He smirked. Katsu frowned. 'Okay, he definitely doesn't know…'

"Wouldn't want to damage your pretty face, now would I?" She smirked, poking him. Kaiba surprised her by gaining the tiniest pinkish hue to his cheeks. She snickered. "Oh, how the mighty is blushing…" She teased. Kaiba's blush quickly disappeared, and he scowled.

"Amusing. Now shut up while I phone the hotel so I can have a room. Away from the likes of you." He growled. Katsu gritted her teeth.

"My exact same feelings 'bud'." She growled. They turned away from each other, Katsu with a defiant 'hmpf!'

Kaiba brought out his cell phone, dialling the Hotel's number.

Katsu paid him no attention, looking at anything on 'her' side of the limo but Kaiba. The memories of her dream still haunted her. She shuddered involuntarily.

"The sooner I get to Jusenkyo, the better." She mumbled to herself.

"Fine, goodbye." Kaiba growled into the phone as he hung it up. Katsu didn't bother looking back as she asked him,

"So, what's happening?" Kaiba growled.

"They're booked entirely. The only room they can give us is the one I reserved beforehand, when I wasn't planning on taking YOU." He said. "There's only one bed." Katsu turned to gape at him, gawking.

"WHAT?!" Kaiba glared.

"I'm not sharing it with the likes of you." He snarled. Katsu growled.

"That's 'cause I get the bed!" She said, jerking a thumb at herself.

"What?!" Kaiba cried. Katsu glared.

"I'm your guest, remember? That means I get the bed!" She said. Kaiba's death glare fell upon her.

"No." He said through clenched teeth.

"Yes!" Katsu matched his glare with one of her own. "Would it kill you to be nice and give me the bed I so rightly deserve?!" She demanded.

"'So rightly deserve'? Hardly!" He snorted. "I get it because I won the duel, because I'm paying, and because I'M the one who invited YOU." He said in a tone that portrayed that he had no intentions of doing otherwise. Katsu crossed her arms over her chest.

"Then where to I sleep, hmm?"

**************************


"THE COUCH?!" Katsu cried as Kaiba tossed his clothes bag onto the bed. (His chauffer had brought it up beforehand). Kaiba looked over.

"Be happy. You could've been put on the floor." He smirked. Katsu's face flushed with anger and she clenched her hands into fists at her sides.

"Why you-" She growled. Kaiba shook his finger at her.

"Ah-ah-ah… I could always change my mind, if you'd like." He jeered. Katsu shook her head, glaring.

"No thank you." She turned, 'hmph!' ing once more. "I bet the couch is more comfortable, anyways!" She sweatdropped. 'Like hell it is but oh well…' Katsu lifted her bag up, placing it down on her couch. She blinked when it twitched. "Wha…?"

"I'm going to meet with some executives for a while. Don't break anything." Kaiba called as he left her alone--alone with a moving duffel bag. She gulped.

"Uh…okay…" She slowly reached out for the bag, pulling the zipper open just enough to peer inside. But as soon a she did so, a tiny head popped out. "GAAH!!" Katsu cried, jumping in surprise. She took a double take. It was a fox's head! Katsu stepped over, unzipping it so the fox could get out.

It was a pretty, rich auburn fox with black on the tips of its paws, tail, all of its ears, and on a small patch of fur on its breast. It had soft brown eyes, and twin locks of 'hair' falling down on each side of its face. There was black on the tips of the hair, too. In fact, that hair looked like…

"Sh-Shizuka??" Katsu stuttered, blinked. The kawaii fox beamed, wagging its tail happily with a nod. "How-how'd you…?" She stuttered, pointing. Shizuka jumped at her, causing Katsu to catch her so she wouldn't fall. "H-hey!!" Katsu cried.

Shizuka nuzzled her cheek. "Did you come on purpose…?" She asked. Shizuka nodded. Katsu sighed, sitting down on the couch, Shizuka in her lap. "Man you scared me! Next time you plan to stow away in my bag, tell me BEFORE you do!" Shizuka only nipped playfully at her finger with a tiny 'yip'. Katsu sighed, petting her lightly. "Ay least you got stuck with a GOOD curse…" She muttered miserably. "I'm stuck in a girl's body…with Kaiba." She shuddered.

Shizuka frowned slightly, rubbing her head against Katsu's hand with a tiny whimper of sympathy. Katsu smiled slightly. "Aw well. At least you came." A thought occurred to her. "Hey…how'd you convince mom ta let you come, anyways?" Shizuka only gave another fox-like sound.

Katsu chuckled. "Aw, never mind. Hungry?" She asked. Shizuka nodded. Katsu grinned. "I hope Kaiba brought his visa card." Shizuka frowned. 'Kaiba's gonna kill him for sure…' She thought as Katsu called for the room service to bring up a large pepperoni pizza with extra cheese.

'Onii-chan…'

***********************

Kaiba sighed heavily as he opened the door to his hotel room with his cardkey. It was 8:47 PM, and he was in no mood to deal with that annoying girl Katsu, so he hoped she would just have fallen asleep again. His eyes widened when he saw on his bed, both Katsu and a…FOX?! And they were eating a large pizza. 'A fox eating a pizza?!'

"What the hell are you doing?!" Kaiba yelled, storming over. Katsu jumped in surprise.

"Ah hah hah…hi, Kaiba!" She grinned sheepishly. "Um…jeez…want some pizza…?" She asked with a weak smile. Kaiba's eyes twitched.

"First of all, why are you on my bed, and second, what the hell is a fox doing here?" He asked in a controlled voice, though his eyes were that of blazing blue fire. Katsu swallowed.

"Um…" She looked around frantically. "It's comfy…?" She said hopefully. Kaiba growled.

"Not good enough. Now get off." He said angrily. Sensing danger, Katsu quickly grabbed the pizza box and Shizuka, running over to her couch.

"Care to explain where the fox came from?" He asked, arms folded over his chest with a frown. Katsu looked down at Shizuka. Shizuka looked up at her.

"Um…this is…my pet." She said slowly. "Erm…she stowed away in my duffel bag…" It wasn't the WHOLE truth, but it would suffice. "Her name's…Shisa…" She said quickly. Kaiba raised an eyebrow.

"Your pet?" He asked, obvious he didn't believe her entirely.

"Yeah! I got as a present from my mom a year ago…" She looked down at the frowning Shizuka with an apologetic expression. 'Gomen, but I don't wanna get busted sis…' She thought. Kaiba sighed heavily.

"I'm not in the mood for this…just keep it off my bed, alright?" He looked at her. Katsu nodded.

"'Kay!" Katsu nodded. She thought for a moment. 'I'm gonna hate myself for doing this, but…' "Hey Kaiba, wanna share the pizza with me? There's still half of it left." She said. Kaiba glanced back.

"Why, exactly?" Katsu frowned.

"I'm just asking…besides, we can watch a movie on TV, too!" She offered. Kaiba looked away.

"I have work to do." Katsu grinned, holding out the pizza box.

"C'mon…ya know you wanna…" She said. "It's really good, promise! Just for a bit?" Kaiba shook his head.

"No."

"Aw, lighten up! Live a little! All you do is work! Just watch a movie? Half?" Katsu asked. Kaiba sighed.

"If I do, will you leave me alone?" He asked. Katsu nodded.

"Yep!" Kaiba rubbed his temples.

"Alright, but after the movie, I'm going back to work." He said, walking over as sitting on the couch beside her. Katsu smirked, pushing him off.

"My couch. You have a bed, remember?" Kaiba scowled at her. "Aw, I'm just kiddin'! I'm gonna sit on the floor too." She grinned, flicking on the TV and pressing the 'play' button.

"What movie?" Kaiba asked as he took a bite out of his piece of pizza.

"'Fight Club'." Katsu said. Kaiba blinked.

"You actually like that movie?" He asked. Katsu nodded.

"Yeah, I guess so. It's okay, but The Two Towers was better." She shrugged, watching as the previews started. Kaiba frowned, looking back at the screen. There was more to this girl then he thought… He didn't notice as Shizuka crawled atop Katsu's lap, curling up into a ball of fur, sleeping peacefully.

*************************

Kaiba yawned as the movie ended, glancing over at his 'companion'. She was fast asleep, head leaned back against the couch, snoring softly. Shizuka, or 'Shisa', was also fast asleep. Kaiba shook his head. He turned of the television, rewinding the movie. He stretched his arms above his head, kneeling down to pick up Shizuka, placing the sleeping Kitsune on the floor, before picking up Katsu and laying her down on the couch, grabbing a spare blanket from the linen closet and placing that on her. Then, he placed Shizuka back on top of her.

"Sleep well," He murmured, turning off the light as he left the room. Katsu mumbled a 'thanks', before relaxing onto the soft couch.

Kaiba ran a hand through his hair as he looked in the mirror. As much as he hated to admit it, he DID have fun. He sighed heavily. 'What am I getting myself into…?' He wondered silently. Katsu…she was only an accomplice, an annoying obstacle that liked to push his buttons.

'Just like the mutt…' He mused. Even though he didn't want to admit it, but he was starting to get slightly worried for the blonde. He hadn't been at school for a whole week now. That was unlike him, as he always came to see his friends. Not even Yuugi had seen a trace of the blonde teen. Kaiba frowned.

"I don't care. He's probably at home by now, anyways." He said, trying to make himself believe that was the case. He had an unnerving feeling that something had happened to the blonde. 'But I don't care about him. He's just an annoying mutt.' He confirmed, pulling on his black silk pyjamas, climbing into his bed.

'I can't wait until this is over…' He thought with another heavy sigh.
