Kaiba's Revolution
By Leena
Prolog
Seto Kaiba's POV
Sitting here in the dark Shadow Realm wasteland, I realize all the wrongs I've done in my life. My first wrong was to my adoptive father who took Mokuba and me from the orphanage. Sure he was hard on me, but I was his heir. He wanted to make sure his company was taken care of. Of course I was not entirely to blame for what happened next. He pushed me too hard so I threatened to push him, literally. It was a several story drop and he had a heart attack thinking I would do it. The sad thing was at the time I would have.
My next wrong was to Yugi and his friends. They never did anything bad to me but I was too obsessed with disposing of the fourth Blue Eyes White Dragon to care about whose feelings I was stepping all over. Sure, Yugi beat me but I had no right to rip up his grandfather's card. Now that I think about it I feel guilty for what I did to his Grandfather's card, I wonder if he would except one of mine. No, he said he wouldn't sell it because it was given to him by a friend. Now I wish I had friends. No one will miss me now that I'm gone. Everyone will be happy. Pegasus will gain control of my company, my associates will be filthy rich and Yugi and his friends won't have to deal with me anymore. The only one that ever cared for me was my brother, Mokuba. Which brings me to my next wrong.
I failed Mokuba. I tried so hard to get him back. I know it was wrong to leave him in the first place but sense my defeat to Yugi I have been looking at things differently and I needed to go away to think. As soon as I got to Duelist Kingdom I went straight to Pegasus and to get him back I had to defeat him but to earn the privilege to even duel him I had to beat Yugi. I pushed back my fears of loosing to him again and I challenged him and he agreed. I had the perfect strategy and an almost unbeatable combo, but in the end Yugi found a way to beat me, but I couldn't let him. I risked my life in that duel hoping he would surrender, and he did. I won. Not fairly, but life isn't fair. I had no choice. The trouble came when I dueled Pegasus. It was like he knew what was in my hand and deck. He beat me easily. He took my soul too. Now I can't save Mokuba. I guess I'm stuck here for eternity to think what I could have done to save him.
Then, at that moment a strange sensation came over me and I noticed I was back in my body.
"Wh-what happened," I asked.
"Yugi just saved your butt, that's what happened," said the distinctive voice of Joey Wheeler.
"Where's Mokuba?" I asked, my brain finally registering that if I was out of the Shadow Realm, he probably was too.
"He's in the other room with Téa and Tristan. They're cleaning up the scratches on his arms and legs," Yugi said politely. At that moment, Mokuba came running through a door to my right and I sighed in relief. He was all right. I opened my arms and Mokuba ran right into them
"Big Brother! You're okay!" he shouted as he ran into my arms.
"Are you okay, Mokuba?" I asked him, hoping the answer was yes but liking the answer I got just as much.
"I'm fine as long as you're here," he said, burrowing his head deeper into my arms.
"Okay let's get out of this dump," I said to Mokuba, smiling. "Just wait outside and I'll be there in a moment.
"Yugi," I asked after Mokuba had left the room, "how, exactly, did you save us?"
Yugi looked uncomfortable for a moment then he smiled and said
"I defeated Pegasus and wagered my Millenium Puzzle to get your, Mokuba, and Grandpa's souls back," Yugi said. I suddenly remembered the guilt I had earlier felt about ripping up his grandfather's Blue Eyes White Dragon card.
"Yugi, I am very sorry for what I have done to you and your friends in the past. Is there anything I could do to make it up to you." After I said that I heard Joey whisper to Bakura, 'Where are da pods? This definitely ain't Kaiba.'
"It's alright, you were just trying to help your brother like I was trying to help my Grandpa," Yugi said sensibly.
"I know Yugi, but before that. I feel terrible about what I did to your grandfather's Blue Eyes White Dragon card. Would you except one of mine?"Again I heard Joey whisper, 'What did dat place do ta Kaiba? He's about ta give Yugi a Blue Eyes!'
"Kaiba, I couldn't take one of your Blue Eyes, even Pegasus knew how much they meant to you."
"Well the least I could do is give you a ride home," I said, then smiled.
After we all piled into the helicopter and had a crowded ride home they said their good byes and headed home. When Mokuba and I reached our house I announced we both were moving to America to get away from Pegasus, and Mokuba, surprisingly was very happy about this. So after a week we packed all our things and made a new KabiaCorps branch in America, after firing the head board that tried to get me killed. So we moved to Bayville, New York where both of our lives started over.
