Heart and Soul

Chapter 3: Caught in the Act

"Oh, gosh...that was a close one..." Beat was now in the playground area, leaning against one of the purple elephant slides as small children slid down it. Tokyo-to's citizens pretty much knew that he would never hurt any of the small children around there, so they were able to trust him around the little ones.

"Hey, Beat!" he quickly looked down toward his left to see a small, black-haired kid with sparkling blue eyes looking up toward the leader of the GGs like he was a true hero.

"Hey, Mokuba. What are ya doing outside of Benten-cho? Ain't your big bro looking for ya?" Mokuba shook his head at this.

"Nope. I already told Seto I'd be with you around here. Plus that, you promised me a graffiti lesson, remember?" Beat lowered his glasses slightly at this.

"He STILL doesn't know about these lessons? You ARE good..." He got off the elephant and looked around quickly.

No sign of the cops.

"Looks like school's in session, Mokuba. Let's use this slide as the canvas." With that said, they both pulled out a spraycan each and they started spraying away. Beat was spraying a pic of his favorite monster, the Shadow Ghoul, while Mokuba had done a crude Baby Dragon. The eyes were missing and there weren't supposed to be spikes on the tail, either. Plus that, the Baby Dragon's NOT suposed to be green. "You're having too much fun coloring that, are you?" A bullet soon flew, barely missing the top of Beat's head and splitting the top of his headphones, cutting off the music from Jet Set Radio.

"What the?!" He then heard Mokuba gasp as he looked up to see the police surrounding the two.

"Oh, no! It's Onishima!" Beat could see the angered face on the captain.

Smooth move, Beat. You finally got caught in the act.

"I can't believe this...it's one thing to be spraying graffiti on your own or with your gang...but teaching a young CHILD how to spray graffiti is really over the line..." Another bullet flew, getting one of the wheels and surprisingly just bounced off.

"Mokuba, come on!" He picked up Mokuba and started to skate off, accidentally dropping a couple of spraycans as he flew past many of Tokyo-to's citizens. Man, if Mokuba's brother finds out about THIS, he's DEFINATELY going to be in trouble...

And he was. He stopped as he saw a figure wearing a blue trenchcoat, glaring at Beat with eyes to match his coat.

"Seto! What are you doing here?!"

"Taking you home. The police informed me of what this criminal was doing." Ouch.

"Criminal? When did you start calling me that?" Seto glared at Beat.

"Since Onishima called me and told me that you were teaching Mokuba how to spray graffiti. Mokuba, you had said that he was teaching you how to skate, not how to do graffiti!" Beat quickly glanced toward Mokuba, who was looking back up toward him.

"Now I know."

"Silence!" Beat shut his lips real quick at that. "I'm not going to ban you from the Battle City tournament, that would be too cruel, but when I see you there, I will make SURE you lose when we duel. Come on, Mokuba! It's time to go back to Benten-cho." Mokuba looked back up sheepishly at Beat then folowed his big bro out of the area. Onishima snuck up behind him and pulled a sleeper hold on the GG leader, instantly knocking out Beat without leaving a mark on him.

"I'll finally have you in jail, you little brat." He picked up Beat and tossed him over the shoulder unceramoniously. When Onishima got to the police van, he tossed Beat into it, slammed the door, and drove it away. The only trace left of him was the split headphones and the Shadow Ghoul graffiti beside Mokuba's Baby Dragon graffiti.
