{Author's note: I owe this idea due to the brilliant story of The Weaker Sex by Redwolf. And please note I'm including arcs from the Anime so this doesn't follow the Manga strictly. And thank you everyone for your reviews on my other stories. I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while. I've been very busy with College.}
Light Dragon and Dark Magic
Chapter 1-The game
She stared hard at the imposing business man that sat before her. A soloum impassive look came over her brilliant blue eyes and she set down her rook, and said calmly, "Checkmate, Kaiba-sama."
The old man, Kaiba Gozaburo, stared at her, a smirk came over his lips, and he crossed his arms and legs, impressed. This girl, she was good, and he realized that he could use her. Yes, she would be his heir, the future for his company, and rule it as he would train her to.
She watched him and crossed her slim arms across her flat chest and narrowed her eyes with a hard look, "Remember what you promised, Kaiba. You said you would take me and Mokuba. You wouldn't lie to a child, now, would you?"
Oh she was good, and he closed his eyes nodding. "And I keep my word little one. I'll take your brother too. As promised."
The look he gave her sent a chill into her small heart, but the small girl simply nodded, and waited till he left to look at her little brother. His long, black, bangs hung over his gray blue eyes and he noticed she wasn't smiling.
"Seiko" he asked softly, "Are you okay?"
She nodded her auburn head and her blue eyes, that sparkled once so brightly, now were dulled and he looked at her softly. Something had changed in his big sister.
"I'm fine –we're going to be fine."
A moment later Kaiba walked back in and Seiko looked at him coolly, not meeting his gaze with a respectful look, but one of reproach.
"You signed the papers?" Seiko asked him and Kaiba nodded. She looked hesitantly at him, then at the orphanage director and finally at her little brother. She stood up, her eyes still that dulled color, walked over and stood before Kaiba. Her eyes looking at him with no love in them, just coldness that Mokuba could feel from where he stood. She twisted her hands in her skirt when she glanced her little brother.
"What do you say Seiko-chan?" asked the Director gently smiling at her. He didn't get it, she thought, but screwed up her face and met Kaiba's look with one of her own, hard and like ice.
"Thank you….Father. Can we go home?"
