[1] The Japanese don't have a word for 'the' in their language and most of them are very confused about it's purpose. Same with 'a' and 'an'. I just happen to know because I know someone online who is japanese and she refuses to use 'a', 'an', and 'the' because she doesn't understand it -_______-;;. No offense to you Miko, should you be reading this.

Welcome Home
{The last chapter hasn't happened yet.}
Seto Kaiba's POV
'Damn. Where'd I put that toothbrush….' I thought to myself, rumaging through my bag. Mokuba was getting his teeth brushed, and I was going to join him. Except it looked like I forgot a toothbrush.
I stood up, put one hand on my hip, and the other behing my head, thinking. I was certain I had bought it along. I'd made a list of everything I'd need camping. Oh.
That's right. We were going to rough it in the woods. There wouln't be any running water. So how did Mokuba get a toothbrush?
I shook my head and jumped into bed. I was unually tired for 10 pm. Usually I stay up till past midnight. Sometimes I don't sleep at all. It's hard running a company. I'd like to see you try it one of these days.
I fell asleep thinking about the latest program to create a duel ring where you didn't even need to launch projectors. They were embedded on the main unit so there wasn't even a chance of lossing them, as I know people often did. Comstomer Service's report told me so.
I yawned, turned on my right side, and fell asleep.
Mokuba Kaiba's POV
I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth with a complimantry toothbrush. Sometimes these annoying little gift things do come in handy (AN- I forgot my toothbrush - ____ -'''' I know those things do come in handy. Unfortunatly.) I rinsed my mouth and spit, putting the brush on the counter. I grabbed a hairbrush began to comb my hair. And I'll tell you. That isn't the easiest task of all time. Maybe I should get it cut?
I imagined myself with short hair and immediately disregaurded that thought.
Seto came to the doorway and leaned against the doorfame. Looking at me oddly and smirking. I reconized that smirk as the one that had meant doom for many a duelist.
And it was making me uneasy.
I looked back into the mirror and found that Seto had moved directly behind me. How did he move that fast?
I turned around. "Yes Seto?"
He gave me a big smile that looked…..well…evil. Not pleasing. Ungood. Wait, that's not a word is it? Well, anyway, it didn't look friendly.
Instead of a logical reply he started muttering something. I couldn't pick up that many words, but it sounded like english. I reconized 'the'. Even though I'll never understand why they add that it.[1]
I started to feel very light and floatly. I did not want to feel light and floatly. I closed my eyes, listening to what my brother was saying. I picked up 'the', 'house', and not much else (initentionally rthyme ~From Authoress).
When my brother stopped talking, I opened my eyes. To find myself 8 inches tall and looking up at him. He had a triumphant smile on his face.
Well, one might imagine that I didn't appriectiate this much.
"SETO! What did you do!!??!"
I bent down and picked me up in his hand, being careful not to hurt me. I suppose I should be greatful for that.
He looked down at me, amused. I'd seen that look when he was looking over a device he'd built from scratch that had turned out exactly as he planned it.
"I am not 'Seto'. You can call me Allie if you want." he said brightly.
I looked up at him in horror. He smiled. An actually smile. You don't see those often.
"Let's go."
=Time elapses=
We'd walked through the hallway, unbileavable undetected. I decided it was best not to try and get out of his grasp. I was only 8 inches tall and Seto was, well, big. And it was along way down.
We came to a room that had a '9' on it. He grabbed the door handle and without turning it, it opened.
This was the room we had been in eariler. The one with the blood everywhere. I shirvered and he looked down at me, concerened.
He walked over to a drawer and opened it. Placing me inside. I looked into the drawer to see a lot of dolls. Dolls that were china. I broke into a cold sweat when I thought about how that was probably going to be me.
I looked back up at my brother, who had stood up and was stroking his chin, thoughtfully. I had never seen him to that.
He tilted his head to the left, looking down at us.
If it was possible, I felt the air inside the drawer tighten. No, wrong word. Grow oppressive. The dolls where afraid of my brother?
"You know what I need? A dollhouse. If I'm going to have 25 dolls living together, then I'm going to need someplace to store them."
He smacked his head.
"DUH!! Why didn't I think of this before. All dolls need a house!!" He threw his hands above his head.
Okay. That gesture alone wouldn't immediately shown me that something was up with my brother.
He closed his eyes and started talking again.
I blinked.
There, in front of the dresser, was a house. If looked to have about 15 levels and looked victorian.
"BINGO!!" Seto shouted (AN- imagine Kaiba say that in his japanese/USA voice. Either one is pretty funny. But you have to imagine it as if he were an energetive child.).
He picked up several of the dolls and placed them in the house.
He finsihed that and picked me up, still being very careful.
He put my in a room all to myself, on the bed.
I don't know what this was. I was in shock one might say. But what I did know was that my clothes had somehow changed. I was now wearing a light blue button up shirt and jeans.
'Oh this is just cheery.' I thought. Stuck in a doll house looking like a Ken doll (AN- Matel owns Barbie and all of her friends, male and/or female).
I went over to the door and started pulling at the knob. I hadn't excepted it to budge. I didn't. I went to the window and saw Seto, arms crossing, smiling at the house in delight.
The he dropped his arms and closed his eyes. When he openned them again, he stumbled backwards until he tripped over the bed and fell onto it.
"Big brother!" I yelled pounding on the glass of the window. "SETO!!" I cried.
He was just laying there. Not moving. Standing over him was a shadow. Not kidding.
This shadow was of a child. That much was clear. She was wearing a black dress that was in very high contrast with her pale skin. She was sort of floating over my brother. Staring intently at him, unblinkingly.
My brother groaned and put a hand to his head.
"SETO!!" I yelled, pounding on the glass.
"Arrrgggh. What happened?" he said, sitting up.
The ghost's eyes lit up and she smiled.
She started wispering something to my brother. I know because I saw his eyes widden in disbelief. He jumped off the bed and turned around to face her. But, appearently he couldn't see her….
"Where are you!? Show yourself! I know you're here!" He spun around.
"Hoow." I said/groaned. Banging my haed on the appearently shatter proof window.
She floated down towards Seto's ear and said something and then laughed.
"Where is Mokuba?" he said through gritted teeth, glaring, eyes frantically looking about the room.
I heard her airy reply. "None of your concern. If you want his saftey you'll stay here." She sent a look to the clock which read 10:24. She sighed.
"He's very cute you know. I'd hate to have to harm him." She said.
This got my brother. I don't know whether to be happy he cares about me so much or angry that he is probably risking his safety for mine.
I closed his eyes. I knew for a fact that he absolutly detested being cornered like this without an option. But, he sat down on the bed, eyes still searching the room.
"I'll stay. You don't hurt my brother."
She smiled and swooned down on him, hugging him over his left sholder and kissed him on his left cheek. "I knew you would."
Seto's eyes widdened as he jumped back. In all of my years the only time I'd ever seen Seto afraid was when our adoptive father….well. Only against him did he show any fear. And then, it soon vanished.
She left the room, leaving only my brother and myself. I turned and walked across the room I was in and sat on a wooden chair that was very uncomfortable.
I wasn't sure, but I felt as through my joints were stiffining. That was not a good sign.
