Hello and welcome to another chapter of Shinjitsu No Uta! Thanks to NeferNeferi and Thief12344 for reviewing the story so far! I really appreciate it. I think this story is almost complete. YAY!! Almost another completed story. There will be one more lemon/lime to this story besides the short one, but this one will be like most of the chapter. Well, I gues...this is the beginning of when Seto is under control! ; Mokuba saves him this time but what about next time? What do I get from all of this? Reviews, oh yeah! ; I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh and with that said, let's get on with things, shall we?
Chapter 9- Stars Show Everything
"Mokuba...you're growing up so big,"Seto said, brushing some raven-black bangs from his brother's eyes. I'am sure Mom is proud of you…he thought.Seto looked outside and went out to the balcony. He suddenly saw a creature with fangs and sharp claws on his balcony. It was green and the creature was an imp. The Feral Imp…Seto thought, one of Osamu's.
Seto layed a sleeping Mokuba on Seto's bed, because now, officially, he was staying with Seto at all times. He was still a little overwhelmed at what had just happened in the Shadow Game back there. Mokuba couldn't be destroyed. That was a gift Seto had always wanted, but thought he couldn't get. Well, now, he got it."Ah, I see you know me, Priest Seto,"Feral Imp said, looking directly at him. "I have come here to tell you something…"
"What?"he asked, raising an eyebrow.
"You wish to have more power, yes?"Feral Imp asked, looking at Seto directly in the eyes. Seto didn't say anything, all he did was turn to look at his sleeping brother."I take your movments as a yes,"Feral Imp said suddenly. "Anyway, I have a way…for you to gain more power…and rise above the pharaoh and queen…"
Sto looked at the imp. Was this creature insane? He would never go against his own sister.
"Ah, I see you don't agree with me,"he said, his eyes glowing red. "Then I will have to force you to work for us, Priest Seto! YOU NOW WORK FOR OSAMU AND LYITHIEN!"he cried, his eyes completly red and Seto's turning black."Hai…"Seto said silently.
Elsewhere…Inside Seto's chambers, Mokuba was stirring from all of the yelling that was going on. He opened his eyes and rubbed them slowly, and looked outside at the balcony. Seto was there and so was a Feral Imp! Wait...that is one of Osamu's monsters! He wants to brainwash Seto! okuba thought. I won't let him get away with this!!
On The Balcony…
At the balcony, Seto wasn't fully under Feral Imp's control yet, only half way there. He was almost done casting the spell on him when he felt someone push him away from the priest and almost off of the balcony."What the hell?!"Feral Imp cried.Mokuba growled at the imp. He stood protectively in front of his brother, just like he had done last time, with Blue-Eyes' help before, but now, he was all on his own.
"Don't touch him,"Mokuba hissed venomously.
Feral Imp was surprised. A child, protecting the priest? The child must obviously love the priest dearly, or otherwise would not be doing this.Elsewhere…
A girl with long blonde hair, green eyes, her hair was in a long ponytail, wearing a white gown with spaghetti straps and a necklace around her neck was looking through a mirror at her two sons. It was Raika! Seto, Mokuba, and Sakura's mother!
"I'am so proud of my boy,"she said, looking at Mokuba, who was standing protectively in front of his brother, his hands both on either side of him making a cross-like figure, and his eyes were red again."He has become a demon to protect his brother…"Raika said, looking at her son, who was hissing venomously at Feral Imp, trying to make him go away.
'You think I'am scared of you?'Feral Imp snickered. 'Why...that does not scare me one little bit!'
'Leave my brother alone!'Mokuba hissed, again venomously. 'Or you'll wished you never existed on this Earth!'
Feral Imp was taken aback. He looked into the kids eyes and saw the redness in them, his claws, and his dog-ears.(Inuyasha!Except with Raven black long hair! ;)'He's a d...d...demon!'Feral Imp cried scared.'That is right, and you'd better believe it,'Mokuba hissed. 'Stop messing with my brother or rot in hell!'Mokuba cried angrily.
Feral Imp suddenly cried of shock and vanished.
"It is best if I visit them again soon,"Raika said, leaving her chambers, proud of Mokuba.Mokuba's expression turned normal and he turned to look at his brother, who was currently, still under the spell a little.
"Oniichan?"Mokuba asked.There was no reply. Mokuba waved a hand in front of Seto's face, but he gave no reply.
"Oniichan?"he asked, worriedly.
Seto's eyes closed, and he fell.
"ONIICHAN!"Mokuba yelled, because Seto was falling at full speed, for he had fallen off.
"ONIICHAN, NO!!!""Oniichan...don't worry, I'll save you if it's the last thing I do!"Mokuba cried, running out of the chambers at full speed. He knew just how to save his brother, by asking Sakura and Yami for their assistance.
He quickly ran to the entrance of their chamber and knocked on the door. The pharaoh had answered it to find an out-of-breath Mokuba. He guided the child to a chair and helped him sit on it.
"Mokuba, what is wrong?"Sakura asked, wondering why her brother was panting."Oniichan...h...he's falling off his balcony as I speak!"Mokuba cried, tears streaming down his face like waterfalls. "And there's nothing I can do to save him!"Sakura and Yami gasped as Mokuba burried his face in his hands and cried hard. "Oniichan, I'm sorry,"Mokuba cried into his hands. "I'm stupid, I couldn't protect you. I failed."Sakura walked quickly over to Mokuba and shook him. "Come on, kid, let's go and get our brother." Mokuba looked up at her, his vision blurry and his face was tear stained. "But...I thought he was..."Sakura looked at him sadly. "He is. I know that. But...I gained a new power over the months." Mokuba looked up at her, his heart almost broken in half. "What is that?"
"I can bring people back from the dead,"she said, smiling.Mokuba gasped. He wiped his tears away and smiled. "Let's go get Seto!"he cried, running out of the chambers, dragging Sakura behind him."Hey, wait for me!"Sakura cried, standing up.
Yami could only smile as the two ran out of the chambers together.
Seto fell onto the grass, below the balcony. He was gone, but not for long."Seto! Seto!"Mokuba cried, shaking him. "We're here to help you! Wake up!"
Sakura began chanting a spell in Egyptian, and Seto suddenly stirred.
"Seto..."Mokuba's face was in his brother's chest, sobbing. Suddenly, he felt two powerful hands hug him. He looked up and noticed it was Seto. He was alive. He was ok. He wasn't brainwashed; or was he?
"Mokuba, I am..."Seto couldn't finish. He hugged his brother tightly.
He heard sobbing, suddenly. He looked down, and noticed Mokuba was shaking and sobbing. He rocked his brother back and forth in his arms, when he closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the palace. He could tell his ribs were broken from all of the pain he had right now, but he didn't care. He was with Mokuba now.Sakura decided she would go, but not before sending Mokuba a telepathic message. 'Mokuba, it was really you who saved your brother all on your own. You really didn't need my help.'
'What do you mean? Your spell revived him,'Mokuba said, confused.'The spell wasn't working when I chanted it,'she said. 'The honest truth. Mokuba, you were the only miracle Seto needed to recover.'Mokuba smiled, proud of himself, proud of what he had done for his brother as Sakura left into the palace."Hey, Seto..."Mokuba started.
"What is it, kid?"Seto asked, rocking him back and forth gently in his arms while stroking his hair.
"Can we...you know...sleep outside here tonight...under the stars?"Mokuba asked, looking up at his brother, who smiled down back at him.
"Sure, Mokuba,"he replied. "We can do anything you want."Mokuba smiled and leaned against his brother, both of them sleeping under the stars of the night."Good night, oniichan,"Mokuba said, closing his eyes.
"Good night, Mokuba,"Seto said softly, closing his eyes and falling into a deep sleep.
Osamu and Lyithien were watching the two brothers having their 'brotherly moment' together outside of the palace."Soon, Priest Seto will be working for us!"Lyithien cried."And the destruction of the world...is in our hands once again!"
