"..No one but NO ONE torments the puppy except me, baka." Seto replied smoothly to the darkhaired boy he held in his grip.
"And what can you do to me?" Otogi smirked back, blue-green eyes narrowing.
"You'll see. But after I'm done, you won't *ever* lay a finger on Jounouchi again."
"Jealous, much?"
Seto flinched, then glared, hauling off and punching the pretty boy's face.
Jou gasped, eyes widening as Kaiba sent Otogi spinning back. He didn't hear the words spoken, but something had seriously ticked him off. He still didn't know why Kaiba was here, but it did his heart some good to see Otogi get knocked down a peg or two. But why would he come to his defense? Wouldn't Kaiba love to see someone treat him like a dog, since he already did?
Otogi laughed, massaging his jaw. "I've heard about you, Seto Kaiba. Rich CEO of KaibaCorp, with a little brother, former Duel Monsters Champion until Yugi Mutou, with a chip the size of Japan against one Katsuya Jounouchi. So it makes me wonder just what makes you come to the defense of the blond mutt."
"That's none of your concern, you baka. What DOES concern me is how you can take things so far and why." Seto growled.
"Why? Because I can. How? I have the means and the right. As for the reason..it's fun to make the proud puppy grovel. Too arrogant for his own good, HE'S the one who agreed to the deal of doing whatever I want for a week. So I'm his master, and he'll belong to ME for a week." Otogi grinned, licking his lips as he remembered the taste of the fiery blond, his blue- green eyes sliding over to him. "Or longer..." he purred with a sadistic chuckle.
Seto's eyes widened, then narrowed. "Over. My. Dead. Body." he snarled, collaring him again.
"Possessive, aren't we?" Otogi smirked. "And here I thought you hated him. Hm. You don't mind a little sharing, do you?"
Seto saw red at that sentence, and drew him close, hissing. "Touch him and die."
"Already did, remember? He tasted gooooooood..."
Seto growled and slugged him one, not caring that they were still on national television, coiling himself and twisting around to gracefully roundhouse kick him, wiping him off his feet.
"Seems I struck a nerve.." Otogi gasped, laughing tauntingly as he crashed to the floor.
******
Jou winced as he watched the events, his eyes widening as he caught snippets of words. 'Kaiba's..jealous..?!' he thought to himself in shock.
Mokuba bounced beside him. "Sugoi! Kick his ass, big brother!"
Yami blinked. "Mokuba..why is Kaiba doing this?" The dark-haired boy shrugged.
"Dunno. Me and Seto were watching tv, and we saw all of this. He got all mad for some reason after seeing Jou in the dog costume and stormed out after that." He glanced at Jou. "How DID you get stuck in a dog costume, anyways?"
Jou flushed. "Long story." he mumbled, watching Kaiba and Otogi in awe. Kaiba was mopping the floor with the black-haired boy, and he still didn't get why. Could it really be true that Kaiba was trying to protect him? He winced again as Seto slugged Otogi again. "Ooch..that'll leave a mark.." he muttered, grinning.
Anzu smirked as she heard his comment. "Like you would care?"
Jou laughed. "Nope, I wouldn't!"
Honda scratched his head. "I don't get it. Why is Kaiba doing this?"
"Don't know, and frankly, don't care." Jou frowned. Just as long as Kaiba didn't win and take Otogi's place and make him wear that stupid dog costume..he wouldn't..would he? He shivered as he remembered that old dream he'd had during the time at Duelist Kingdom. Sitting at Kaiba's feet in a dog costume as Kaiba stood over him..he swallowed and watched the tall brunette fight.
Well..he'd risk it if only to see Otogi get knocked off his high horse and those stupid cheerleaders watching with horror as their idol got the stuffing knocked out of him. He restrained himself from jumping around like an idiot and jeering at the black-haired baka, managing to keep his jaw from hanging at Kaiba coming to his defense. He still didn't know why he was taking on Otogi, but he wouldn't complain.
******
Seto glanced at Jou out of the corner of his eye, pausing in his actions and smirking mentally at the blond's expression. Jou looked absolutely flabbergasted, and he supposed he couldn't blame him, since he'd picked on Jou about the same. But he would never put Jou through what Otogi had, he wasn't that sadistic. NO ONE would torment him like this but him, that was his pleasure, not Otogi's.
He didn't dare examine why he felt like this, that was dangerous territory. Instead he fisted a hand in Otogi's shirt, picking him up and bringing him close. "Are you going to leave him alone?" he snarled, eyes narrowing to blue chips of ice at the black-haired boy.
Otogi smirked behind the black eye and busted lip. "He's still mine. No matter what you say or do, I still have claim to do with him whatever I want." He put emphasis on the word 'whatever', grinning when Seto scowled.
"Take back your deal with him." Seto growled.
"Nothing doing."
"NOW."
"Never."
Seto glared at him. "Yugi or I can duel you--"
"For Jounouchi's honor? No deal."
"I can pay you.."
Otogi laughed. "My, how the mighty have fallen. Seto Kaiba, FORMER champion of Duel Monsters, wanting to bribe a normal person from his fun. Must be something real important to the blond mutt to go to all the trouble."
"It's not that, I just don't want him to go through anymore crap from you."
"Aw, you hurt my feelings. Now I see that you and his friends are so desperate to protect him, I'll make sure to keep him for the deal. Maybe more and longer." Otogi smirked, blue-green eyes gleaming with triumph when Seto flinched.
"You can't...he's done nothing to you.."
"Ah ah ah.." Otogi wagged his finger mockingly. He had the great Seto Kaiba over a barrel. "Any more protests, punches or words out of you, and I'll double the deal length."
Seto gasped. Now he couldn't say or do a thing without getting Jou in more trouble. His clenched fingers, white-knuckled in their grip, released their prize reluctantly, dropping the shorter black-haired boy.
Otogi smirked, wiping his lip, then flipped him off as he stalked towards Jou, grabbing his arm.
"Hey! Lemme go!!" Jou growled, trying to yank away, but the grip only tightened on him like a vise, making him wince when the grip started to bruise.
"You're mine, now." Otogi sneered, eyes narrowing when the blond snarled at him and said several choice words. "Such language."
"You can't do this to him!" Mokuba glared the patented Kaiba deathglare he'd achieved from his older brother, eyes narrowing. "You're not playing fair! Yugi challenged you to a duel, my brother--"
"Your brother doesn't always get his way. As for Yugi, his time will come. Right now, I'm taking my slave and leaving."
Mokuba growled several choice words himself at him. He didn't get this guy. Seto had beat him to a pulp, Yugi and the others wouldn't let him leave with Jou, and yet he was still gloating. His eyes narrowed, and he shifted close enough to kick him HARD in the leg, smirking when the black-haired boy yelped in pain. "Let him go, already."
Otogi snarled and raised his hand to the boy, but Jou stepped in front, blocking Mokuba.
"Don't you DARE hurt him, you insane bakayaro!" The blond snarled, dark eyes narrowing. "Hurt me all you like, but leave him and my friends out of this!"
Seto blinked in surprise. Jou was protecting Mokuba? He didn't even know that Jou and his little brother got along. He knew that Jou had protected Mokuba in the VR world, had even "died" for him, but he didn't realize it still applied, even now, when Jou was the one in trouble. He treated and protected Mokuba like he did, like a treasured little brother.
And Jou was getting the shaft.
Otogi smirked and lowered his hand, grabbing Jou close. "Fine. I'll hurt you all I like." The blond snarled in reply, brown eyes glaring hatefully into blue-green.
"You can't--!" Anzu protested, she, Honda and Yami stepping closer. "We won't let you take him!"
Otogi rolled his eyes.
"Guys..thanks and all..but drop it. Let him be." Jou muttered, to everyone's shocked stares. "I mean it. It's my mess, I've got to get out of it."
"But Jou..!" Honda gasped, his fists clenching. This loser was hurting his best friend, and they were supposed to back off?
"Do it, Honda." The blond head dipped to hide an angry, embarrassed blush, letting the longish hair fall over his face. Gods, why had he been so stupid? He should know by now that a duel, whether it be Duel Monsters or Dungeon Dice Monsters, wasn't an easy thing to win. And he had even agreed to the bet, and like a rookie, he'd lost. He deserved this hand he'd been dealt. He clenched his fists and looked away.
"Jou..." Anzu whispered, reaching out for him protectively. Otogi smirked and pulled Jou closer, a hand wrapping around the blond's neck possessively. He sneered back at Seto and yanked him away.
"C'mon, mutt. You're mine, now."
Jou glared at him, then glanced back at his friends apologetically. His dark-eyed gaze slid to Mokuba, then Seto.
The brunette's eyes widened when the blond head nodded in thanks, a faint smile gracing his lips. Much could be seen and said in the eyes and smile. Appreciation for trying to help him, enjoyment in seeing Otogi knocked off his throne, a slight confusion for even the gesture of helping him, a genuine smile at him for the action. A slight touch of fear touched the dark eyes as Otogi yanked him away out of the arena, followed by the perplexed cheerleaders.
"Big brother?" Mokuba whispered, glancing up at him. "There has to be some way to help him..right?"
"I...really don't know, kiddo. Otogi seems to hold the cards. He turned down the duels in favor of taking Jounouchi.."
"Will he hurt Jou?"
"...I don't know.." Seto balled his fists. If the black-haired baka hurt Jou in any way, heaven help him, he didn't think he'd be able to stop at just one punch. He really didn't know why he was being protective over someone he'd said numerous times he couldn't stand, but somehow, in a short amount of time, Jou had come to mean something to him. More than a rival, more than a mutt, more than someone to make his life a living hell. He didn't know what it was, but seeing that look in his eyes, that look of fear..rival or not, all Seto wanted to do was snatch the blond boy back and hold him protectively away from Otogi, pound the baka into the ground for daring to touch him.
Gods, when did he get so possessive?!
"Kaiba?"
Seto shook his head distractedly and glanced down at his other rival, Yugi. Violet eyes peered up at him inquisitively.
"I don't know why you came to Jou's defense like that, but you have my thanks for trying to help him. That was very noble and honorable of you." Yugi bowed to him respectively, as did Anzu and Honda. "Thank you."
Seto blinked in surprise, glancing at Mokuba, who looked back in equal confusion. He glanced back at the tri-colored-haired boy. "Why thank me? I couldn't do anything to help him." he muttered, glancing away.
"But you tried. That's saying something, right?"
"It's more than what you've normally done." Honda muttered, glaring at Seto as he crossed his arms, remembering all the conflicts between the arrogant CEO and his best friend. Seto had the good grace to blush in embarrassment.
"Okay..so I've been less-than-civil to him. But I still couldn't accomplish anything."
Yugi sighed. "No..you couldn't. I don't think anyone could stop Otogi from doing what he wanted."
"And just what does he want?!" Seto growled, blue eyes narrowing.
"To humiliate Jou. He was the one to take him on, he wants to lord over him. And.." Yugi flushed. "I think he wants Jou as a plaything."
Seto restrained a growl at the thought. He'd seen Jou being mortified at that kiss, if anything else happened, Otogi would die a painful death. He still didn't get why he was so upset over Jou, but it didn't matter.
"Kaiba?" Yugi blinked at the veritable stormcloud brewing in the dark blue eyes and on his face. "Are you okay?"
"....Fine. You're welcome for what little I could do, Yugi. Otogi won't have him for long..I'll see to that."
Anzu blinked at the softly-worded promise, watching with Yugi and Honda as Seto and Mokuba left. "What was that all about?"
Yugi frowned. "I don't know..but I think that Kaiba will make good on his promise."
"Why should he care? Kaiba and Jou can't keep a civil tongue to themselves when in the same room." Honda muttered.
"I don't know..you'll have to ask him. And I don't even think that Kaiba knows."
"Do you think that Jou will be okay?" Anzu swallowed, glancing at them. "I mean, Otogi was being horrible to him.."
Yugi gnawed on his lip. "....We'll just have to wait and see."
