YUGIOH
Kaiba: Missing Persons
Chapter 17. Yami's thoughts on Mokuba came up with a new question for Krysonna. Yami glared at his female opponent from across the table, before the last pick, and asked, "Tell me Krysonna.......are you sure you really want to win this?"
"Of course I do!", Krysonna stated.
"Did you think about the consequences of what will happen if you win? That would involve possibly harming Mokuba. I talked to him earlier, and he seemed to really have a liking to you. I've never seen him trust someone so much before, defend someone with such passion.......except for his own brother."
Krysonna's eyes twitched like crazy thinking about that fact, but shook her head from the thoughts, as she said, "You're just trying to shake me.........I'm not listening to this, I don't care!"
"Tell me again, Krysonna.......do you believe in the Heart of the Cards?", Yami asked.
"I already told you that answer!", she snapped.
"Yes, but you answered before you were playing a game, where the cards themselves will decide who wins and who loses. Can you still say that you don't believe in the Heart of the Cards?", Yami asked.
Krysonna hesitated as she looked at the foreboding deck of cards. What if Yugi was right, and there was a heart in the cards? That would technically mean if she didn't believe in it, it could cost her this game, making her loose everything. If that was the case, then she would have to believe. But what if he was just saying it to psyche her out, then by saying yes she would be made a fool of! And even if it were true and there were a heart, saying yes may not be enough........she would have to believe. But could she bring herself to believe it? She had to really search herself to figure out if she believed or not, looking at the deck........her deck, not Kaiba's. Yes, it was her deck, and she would prove it to him.
Krysonna was shaking, as she glared at the deck in frustration. Yami wasn't sure what to think, then asked again, "Krysonna, do you believe....... "
"Yes! There 'is' a heart! I believe in it, and I believe in this deck........and I also believe that it wont disappoint me. There is one more Blue Eyes in this deck Yugi, and it 'will' come to my hand, and this deck will 'not' fail me!" Krysonna reached for the deck and drew her card.
Yami was shocked........such conviction in her words, in her being. Would she achieve getting the card she called upon? Yet, he still sensed so much conflict in her.......would she win? Yami also picked his card from the deck, hoping that Kaiba's deck would give him the power to help his brother.
Krysonna reached for her card, and looked at it. She then grinned, and cackled madly. "Hahahaha! You see? You doubted me, and thought that this deck was not mine, but you were wrong! This is 'my' deck Yugi, and I pulled the last Blue Eyes White Dragon, just as I asked for! This game is over, you lost and I won! Hahahahahahahahahaha!!"
"You're right, the game is over Krysonna........but I'm afraid you lost the game", Yami stated.
"WHAT?? That's ridiculous! I don't know what kind of game you're playing, Yugi.......but I have clearly won. There is no stronger card than the Blue Eyes White Dragon in 'my' Deck.......that I assure you. Accept your loss, and admit that I am the winner!", Krysonna stated.
"You could be right........there may be no stronger cards in your deck, but there is in Kaiba's deck. When you pulled out the magic and trap cards, you did not pull out 'fusion' cards.......", Yami smiled.
"You mean.......??", Krysonna stammered, her eyes filled with fear.
"The Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon!", Yami stated.
Flashback: .........I have assembled all 5 parts, all 5 pieces.........Exodia, obliterate!!
"NO, it can't be!!" Krysonna leapt up so quick, she almost fell over in her chair, startling Yami. She took this loss alittle too hard, her eyes looked as if she had seen a ghost.
'What is it that haunts her mind?', Yami wondered. "Krysonna.......I won the bet. Do you plan on honoring your side of the deal?"
Krysonna looked down at Yugi, appearing to be very rattled, as she returned to reality and saw him sitting there. She was shaking from the horrible thought that went through her mind. Krysonna finally shook off the horrible feeling that wracked her brain a second ago, saying, "You won.......but this isn't the first time, is it Yugi?"
"What do you mean?", Yami asked.
"Stop playing games with me!!", she yelled at him. "You know what I mean, we have gone through these little games before, and I have lost every time with you! How do you do it? What is the key that makes you win all the time?? No one is that lucky!!"
"Maybe it's not something in me you're searching for Krysonna, but something in yourself", Yami said.
"No more riddles!!", Krysonna cried. She slammed her hands on the table, causing the cards to jump and randomly land on the ground, as she glared into Yugi's eyes. 'There.......inside there is the key. Whatever it is in him that makes him win all the time, I want it!' In her moment of madness, she believed she thought of a way to maybe get that part of him into her, in order to perhaps gain even a piece of his ridiculous luck of the draw. She grabbed him by the collar, and pulled him to her in a lip-lock, shocking Yami.
They stood there, frozen in time for only a moment but what felt like forever, as they drank each other in. And for that instant, Yami even gave into it, enthralled by this woman's strength and passion. But then the thought of Joey came to his mind, who had fallen head over heels for this woman.
Yami pulled away from her, saying, "Krysonna.....stop!"
"Why, Yugi? What are 'you' afraid of?", she asked.
"It's not fear.......it's friendship. There is a man who already cares very dearly for you. Don't tell me that Joey means nothing to you, because I wont believe it if you do", Yami stated.
Krysonna paused, looking at Yami for a moment, then laughed a cold biting laugh. "You think for even a second that I have some kind of interest in the Mutt?? Give me a break! Joey is a fun little pet to kick around at my heals, I must admit. But anything other than that.......I'm afraid you're mistaken."
"But, you two came back.......together", Yami stammered. "Were you........using him??"
She sneered, moving herself towards Yami, saying, "For someone who can read hearts, you can be very slow at times, with certain things. I wouldn't call it using, more like......playing. As you know Yugi, I like games........don't you? Let's play another game. And this one, I'm sure to win......" Her eyes looked so intently into Yami's, causing him to freeze in place. There was so much hunger in her eyes for him, and somehow........he was sure he saw something terribly familiar in them, which made him want to reach for her as well in the same way, and find what it was that he saw inside of her. Yet his own need to physically 'reach' her frightened him. He never felt that way before.
Krysonna didn't give him time to think about it, though. She lunged over the table, landing ontop of him, saying, "What's wrong, Yugi? Haven't you ever hungered for something so much that you would do anything to get it? You possess something I have never been able to achieve. This is more than luck of the draw. You have a way of just winning, even when the odds are beyond you winning......you still do it. Whatever that ability is, I want it! And I plan on getting it, one way or another......"
Yami swallowed hard, blushing terribly. "You think doing this will somehow help you to win?"
"I don't know, but there's only one way to find out......", she smiled mischievously. Without waiting for another one of Yami's 'words of wisdom', she lunged at him like a feral beast, drinking him in.
Yami felt drowned by her hunger, totally overwhelmed. He was shaking from the emotions and from a heart so close to his, that burned so strongly for him, so......familiar to him. It was a feeling as if they had always known each other, even in the ancient egyptian times. He too had a hunger to know who she was. In the back of his mind, there was still a tingling sensation that had Joey's name on it, but despite him feeling that she may still care for Joey, he blindly decided to believe her words, and felt if Joey really cared for her......it was only one-sided. No matter what, Joey would be disappointed, anyways. Yami hesitated only a moment, before giving into her passion. She was right, it was a game he could not win.......good thing there were no bets on the table for this particular match.
