Here is chapter two everyone. If I get any reviews I will try and respond to them.
I still don't own yugioh, only this story.
Chapter 2: A Trip to the Past
It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon in Domino City. Kyoko was sitting outside a little bakery when Mokuba and Seto Kaiba walked by. Kyoko took one tiny peak into the tall CEO's soul and knew it would not be an easy task. She could easily see that there was a very slim chance that he would accept a helping hand. There was almost no way that he would swallow his pride and admit that he even needed help. She felt tears well up in her eyes, but made them stop. She needed to be close enough to him to help him unlock his heart and therefore had to come up with something quick. Hoping that her plan would work, Kyoko levitated a rock into Mokuba's path. Before either of them knew what had happened, Mokuba tripped and went straight over the edge of the walkway and into the river
Perfect, she thought to herself. Before Seto even had a chance to dive in after his little brother Kyoko was already in the water. Kyoko swam downstream and grabbed Mokuba and then snatched one of the many ladders that were situated along the river's edge. Mokuba was fine. A little winded and freaked out, but otherwise fine. She held on until Seto, who had been running at breakneck speed to get to them, pulled Mokuba up and out. She clambered over the side next.
Absolutely perfect, thought a rather wet Kyoko to herself, now then, I only need to say the right things and if I know Mokuba like I think I do, I'll be one step closer.
The three of them sat there for a minute catching their breath. Mokuba tried to dry himself off a little. Seto threw a worried look at him.
"Mokuba, are you alright?" panted Seto, very concerned about his brother.
"Yeah I'm fine, really. Kyoko here got me before I could go too far downstream."
"Kyoko..." said Seto quietly. Wasn't she the girl who helped Mokuba out last time?
Flashback
About a year ago at school Mokuba had been having trouble with some bullies. These two guys were holding him up in the air and messing around. Mokuba was trying to get down but it wasn't working very well. Seto saw what was happening through a window and hurried to get outside and help his little brother. But by the time he got outside, Mokuba was back on the ground and one bully was out cold. A girl who looked to be about 16 was standing between Mokuba and the bully. The bully seemed to be confused at the thought that a girl could have knocked out his partner. He rushed at her and made an attempt to strike, but she jumped cleanly out of the way and kicked his legs out from under him, knocking him flat on the ground.
"Are you okay" the girl asked.
"Yeah I'm fine, my name's Mokuba. That was amazing!" said a surprised Mokuba.
"Thanks. My name's Kyoko. I've gotta go now, see ya Mokuba."
Off she went. Seto just stood there and stared, mouth slightly open, trying to comprehend what had just happened. That girl had moved with incredible speed and had taken that guy out with one shot.
Amazing, thought Seto, she's even faster then I am! Man! Both guys knocked out. Wait a minute, what's wrong with me? Why am I still staring? Pull you're self together. She's just a girl, remember.
"Hey big brother", asked Mokuba when he had reached Seto, "Did you see that? She's absolutely amazing."
"Yes, she is" muttered Seto quietly to himself, not knowing exactly why he had said it.
He had never gotten a chance to thank her. After that he was busy with Duelist Kingdom and organizing Battle City.
End Flashback
Yeah, it is the same girl! She's saved Mokuba twice now before I could even get to him. I don't get it. How is that possible?
"So you're Kyoko?" asked Seto with a voice that was so unlike the one he used to have, "Hmm, it seems that I didn't thank you for the last time you helped out my brother." Now why did I say that? Another chunk of pride down the drain. I'd better watch what I say or I'll be completely humble.
"Your welcome" she said. Oh well, thought Kyoko, I didn't think that he would like me. He doesn't remember, it's not is fault. I can't dwell on the past. I need to focus on the job at hand.
"Is there anything that I can do to repay you for that, Kyoko?" asked Mokuba.
Yup, just as I thought. So far this is working out great. "Yes actually", said Kyoko, "You know that apartment building that burned down a few days ago? Well, that was where I lived and I need a place to stay. Have either of you got any place in mind?" Okay, that was a lie. At least it was a necessary one.
"Seto, can she stay at our place? I owe her one. Hey, SETO!" said Mokuba a little louder. It was clear to him that his brother hadn't heard much of what he had just said.
Hmmm, thought Mokuba, I wonder why that is.
"What? Oh, uhhh, yeah, she can stay for a while until she... until she can find a place", stuttered Seto. Damn. What's this girl doing to me? Okay, yeah, she's pretty, but she's just like the other ones who want my money, right?
That's really weird, thought Mokuba, I've hardly ever seen him at a loss for words before. I wonder.
"Thanks a lot, you guys are great" said Kyoko.
Okay, good, she thought, that was the easy part. The really hard part will be getting that key. Especially because I know what is guarding the deepest part of Seto's soul.
