YUGIOH
Kaiba: Missing Persons
Chapter 18. It was alittle while later, as both Krysonna and Yami laid there, nestled in each others arms. Yami was still blushing a bit, and feeling alittle guilty, as well.
Yami.......are you there? What's going on?
Now he was really embarrassed. Making sure Yugi's spirit did not surface enough to have any insight on what happened, he kept him down, saying, Not now Yugi........I'll discuss it with you, later. He then moved his arm, reaching for his clothes.
A powerful hand slammed down on Yami, as Krysonna's piercing eyes looked into his, and whispered, "Where do you think you're going? It's not polite to kiss and run. It makes a woman think.......you don't care."
"You never did this because you care for me, Krysonna.......you did this out of obsession for power, a power that you cannot gain from me. This is something you could only find in yourself", Yami stated.
She softly brushed down his bare arm, giving him chills. Krysonna pleasantly watched his reactions and "Is that what you think, Yugi? Perhaps you're right. But if that's what you think, why did you let me? Tell me Yugi, are you obsessing over me??"
At that, Yami said nothing, and looked down away from her, feeling rather......vulnerable at that moment.
"What is this?", she sneered. "Could I have finally found a weakness in the great Yugi Motou? Who would have thought you just can't resist a woman's charm." She then laughed mockingly at him.
"N-no.......you don't understand", he said, unable to stop blushing. "There's something about you, something familiar. I feel like I know you, like I've always known you.......like we are connected in some way."
She brushed her hand against his face, saying, "Don't even start babbling to me about you're supposed 'ancient past'. I'm not a part of it, Yugi. I have nothing to do with pharoahs or egypt, so don't even bother......" Suddenly she froze, as did Yami, who's eyes widened as he looked at her.
"How did you know about that?", Yami asked.
"I.......I don't know what you're talking about", she said, getting away from him nervously, as she quickly began to get dressed.
Yami began to follow suit, as he said. "There is only one way you'd know this. You are somehow a part of that past."
"I am NOT some ancient relic, no matter what you say!", she snapped angrily. "You can make whatever ridiculous justification to yourself about this moment all you want.......I could careless. My only interest was to hopefully get to understand you enough to maybe figure out how you managed to win all the time. Who knows......maybe it worked and some of you actually rubbed off on me, afterall."
"You know that's not true. Besides.........I don't think I was the cause of winning, anyways. We both know what the stakes were for winning. Did you ever think that maybe you unconsciously allowed me to win?", Yugi asked, standing up, now dressed.
"What are you talking about, this time?", Krysonna asked, whirling around to face him.
"Your card drawing was also 'beyond luck', Krysonna. You have convinced me that your heart truly is somehow in Kaiba's cards, though I still don't quite understand how that is possible. And yet.......I still won. Maybe deep inside, you really don't want to achieve your goal. Think about that, Krysonna. Now I have wasted too much time, already. I'm leaving.......I need to talk to Mokuba about my findings. Will you keep your side of the deal, and let me leave without a fight?", Yami asked.
".........Go........", Krysonna said, turning her back to him, as she crossed her arms, defiantly. She did not lift a finger to fight Yami, as he left. But, then........the instant he left, she looked up at the door, grabbed for her scattered deck of cards, and went into one of the building's heating ducts.
--------------------
Mokuba was asleep in his bed, thinking about his brother Seto and where he could be. He was awakened by hearing his name called......."Mokuba."
Mokuba sat up, calling out, "Seto.......is that you?"
A shadow loomed over him, grabbing him and gagging him quick.
Krysonna was fighting Mokuba's squirming and kicking form, as she struggled to tie him, saying, "Stop struggling, Mokuba.......I have to do this. I........I'm sorry, I have no choice." When he didn't stop struggling, he turned Mokuba around, saying, "Listen to me! You will not be harmed.......I promise I will not let them harm you! Do you want to see your brother??" With sad puppy eyes, Mokuba sadly shook his head yes. Doing this was tearing her apart........and she didn't even know why. Her eyes twitched in conflict, as she stared into those sad innocent eyes. She had to look away, to keep from crumbling from them, as she added softly, "Then you're going to have to go through with this. I will bring you to your brother, and you'll be together with Seto again shortly", unable to hide the pain in her own voice, as she said this to him.
Mokuba stopped squirming finally, after Krysonna spoke. She finished tying Mokuba up, and was about to leave, when there was a knock on the door. "Mokuba......it's me, Yugi. I need to talk to you."
'You're timing is impeccable', she thought. Quickly, she balled some clothes together under the sheets, then whispered to Mokuba, "Remember what I said.........you want to see your brother again, you'll do exactly what I say. Keep your voice calm and tell Yugi to come in. You screw this up, you'll never see him again!"
"Mokuba?", Yami called again.
Krysonna pulled the gag down, as Mokuba said, "C-come on in, Yugi......"
Yami entered, as Mokuba was re-gagged. Yami immediately saw the lump in the bed, and began to approach, but then felt something pass behind him. He looked behind, thinking he saw a foot hustling away in the direction Yami came from. With concern, he darted over to Mokuba's bed, to find no one was there. "Mokuba!", Yami cried out, and ran out the door, in search of the culprit.
Krysonna ran down the hall with Mokuba over her shoulders, carrying him like nothing. Her mind was a swirl of conflict, as she began to wonder if Yugi was right. Maybe she 'did' unconsciously want him to win......maybe she wanted to be caught because deep inside she didn't want to do this. But she had so much to loose if she screwed this up. And why was it that doing this to Mokuba bothered her in the first place? Was he simply so young and innocent that it somehow affected her, or was it something more?
She ran right into one of the guards, who said, "Hey, watch where you're going! Wait a minute......isn't that Mokuba Kaiba??" Before another word could be said, Krysonna performed a strong Judo move on the guard, knocking him cold before another thought could register in that simple head of his. "Idiot.....", she said aloud. She picked Mokuba back up, and kept going.
Yami was running down the hall, looking for Krysonna. He knew she had to be responsible for this, when he ran into Tristan. "Yugi......what's going on? I thought I heard you cry out something......"
"It's Mokuba, Krysonna just kidnapped him, and is trying to escape with him!", Yami said with great concern.
"You gotta be kidding me!", Tristan said. "Joey's not going to be happy......."
"Listen Tristan, you've got to wake up the others, and get the guards attention, before she escapes the amusement park. Otherwise both of them will become missing!", Yami said.
"I'm on it, Yug.......you can count on me!", Tristan said. Yami kept going, as Tristan began to wake everyone up.
