A/N: Mwa, school is evil. I am going to try and update a few times a week,
probably once a day or every other day. *explodes* Damn this is annoying,
I'm not sure hwy I wanted to put this note here, oh well. Once again I am
well aware of the seriousness of war I do not need flames reminding me of
something I know all too well. Flames will be used to burn Pegasus' Funny
Bunny plushies and once those are gone, Pegasus himself. The flames don't
bother me, flaming me is pointless. Thought u oughtta know.

Seto sighed lazily as he stood staring up at the night sky. "Private!" came a call from behind him.
"Yes Sergeant?" he answered swiftly with a salute.
"Get into your quarters, you need rest for tomorrow's mission!"
"Yes Sir!" he strode swiftly into the tent that he and Katsuya occupied. Katsuya glared at him, neither of them were happy out the sleeping arrangements. "What are you looking at, Mutt?" Seto scoffed.
"I was just admirin' da wonderful white colorin of da tent.You idiot, I'm lookin at you! Da whole time we've been ere, ya've done nothin but complain ta me and stare at da sky, I'm getting sick of it."
"Deal with it." Seto responded dully. For the first time in his life, Katsuya witnessed Seto Kaiba without his fighting spirit. 'Well dis sure ain't normal.' he thought to himself.
"You wanna tell me what's on your mind?" Jou offered quietly.
"No." came the immediate response. Jounouchi couldn't see Seto's face, for he was lying facing away from him but his voice had actually wavered for a moment.almost as if he were. 'Cryin? Nah, not him.could he?' Jou wondered silently to himself before decided it was probably something he had imaginged.
"Whateva." Jou extinguished the small light inside the tent, curled up in the thin blanket he had, and fell asleep.
*the next morning*
Seto and Jounouchi emerged from their tent before dawn, as did everyone else within the area. The Sergeant explained to them that for right now they would not be fighting, they just had to move to a new location a few hundred miles away. If they moved quickly, they could make it in two days because the group was a small one. But there was still the problem of the enemy traps in the jungles that lay ahead.
Creeping silently along, Seto's ice-cold eyes scanned his perimeter searching for anything out of the ordinary. A tiny, nearly invisible string laid across the way he was walking, a clump of dirt, an odd place in the soil, ANYTHING that might suggest a deadly trap.
Jounouchi was attempting to imitate Seto. 'I hate to admit it.' he thought to himself. 'But Kaiba knows what he's doing.' Suddenly while Jou was spacing out thinking about this he felt a TINY pressure on his right shin. He looked down and to his horror, he discovered that he was pressed up against one of those tiny strings, if he moved, he would be blown up it was only a matter of how long he could stand there.
Hearing a small whimper, Seto turning around too see the dilemma Jounouchi had gotten himself into. "Oh dear God." he muttered to himself. He approached Jounouchi, cautiously and followed the string to a small metal box hidden in the underbrush. Carefully as he could, he worked for a few moments until he was certain it was disarmed. "You can move again" he said frankly to Jounouchi before jogging to catch up with the rest of the group.
Katsuya blinked a few times and once he had recovered from the shock, he too was running to catch up with them.
*a few nights later*
Jou had learned from his mistake and did not have any other problems on their journey; it was only a few more miles until they would link up with the squadron that had requested assistance due to the loss of six men.
Once again laying in a tent, Jounouchi laughed lightly. "Wouldn't it be funny if Honda, Ryou, Yugi, or Marik were in the group we were meeting up with?" he wondered allowed.
"The chances of that are slim.and even if it were to be that particular group, some of them have already been to battle, and I wouldn't count on seeing Yugi again after that." Seto scoffed.
"Don't you even THINK dat Kaiba." Jounouchi said louder then he had ment too. He stopped for a moment and softened his voice. "A few days back, when I ran into dat wire well.tanks." he said.
"Don't look at it as a favor, Mutt. I only did so that YOUR mistake wouldn't cause an explosion exposing the rest of us." Seto said coldly.
"Remind me to never thank you again.for anything. God, ya just WON'T let up, will you? I mean, I can't even thank you for savin my life without some kinda wise crack outta you! Ya know what? Just forget it." Angrily, Jounouchi rolled over and faced the white, cloth wall of the tent.
"You don't understand." Seto muttered more to himself then anyone else. "No one does." Jou's ears perked up.
"How CAN anyone understand? You act so cold and cruel, you don't give anyone a CHANCE to understand, ya idiot!"
"Well maybe that's because I've got the decency to keep my problems out of other people's lives." Seto spat back at him.
"No ya don't, if you'd just let someone help you fix them, then ya wouldn't be there no more and ya wouldn't be botherin my friends and I all the time with your attitude!" Jounouchi was getting upset, of course this happened often but there was something about Seto Kaiba that set him off easier then most people.
"I don't need to be told what to do with MY life." Seto said as he glared at the whiteness of the tent. ".and I am sick of the color white." And with that he turned out the light plunging the two of them into darkness.
END CHAPTER FIVE
A/N: OK, I know that was fairly pointless an uneventful but these chapters are necessary. Trust me, with the next Marik/Honda chapter you'll all receive a surprise if you haven't already figured it out due to the huge hints in this chapter.
