Seto waited for his chance to get the crystal. Now that he knew where it was, all he had to do was take it. And once he had the crystal all he had to do was take Cat with him. He smiled as he made his way up the attic stairs, envisioning it. He would return home, triumphant. Crystal in one hand, a beautiful princess for his kingdom in another, only having just whisked her off her feet and onto his blue eyes moments ago. He smirked at his plan as he opened the drawer he had found the crystal in yesterday afternoon. He unwrapped the white cloth as he held the crystal in his hands once again. Looking at its polished surface.

"It really is pretty." He muttered to himself. It looked a lot like the crystal from his kingdom, almost exactly alike. He pocketed the crystal and shut the drawer. Now the only thing left to do was take Cat. Unfortunately he was home alone at the moment, and Cat would get home when everyone else arrived. He would have to wait for the right time, then he would take her with him when she was alone. Seto made his way down the stairs and into the living room right as Joey, Mai, Yugi, Cat, and Marik walked in. Seto gave his usual glare at Marik as everyone filed into the house. Marik noticed the glare, and was planning on ignoring it when he noticed Cat's smile to him. Marik looked back at forth at the two. No! It couldn't be. And yet it had happened, they had made up and right under his nose! Marik clenched his hands into fists.

'I will not have my plans ruined.' He thought with a growl. 'I will  have Cat and be pharaoh!'  with the impending threat of every one of his plans going down the drain, Marik returned Seto's glare.

"Why must you insist on glaring at me every time I come here?" Marik asked angrily. Everyone was startled by Marik's sudden outburst as they looked to Seto for his answer. Seto's glare intensified as he and Marik locked eyes.

"Because I don't like to look at losers like you." Seto said coldly. Marik gave a smirk.

"I wouldn't insult me if I were you." Marik said knowingly. "I know who you are."  Seto's eyes widened in surprise, but quickly masked his expression. He was bluffing, he had to be.

"Know who he is?"  Joey said confused. "What is he talking about?"

Seto and Marik ignored every else as they continued to stare each other down.

"You have no idea of what you are talking about." Seto challenged, his tone low. Marik's face twisted into a triumphant smile.

"Oh don't I?" Marik said. "Or maybe I am wrong in telling everyone here that you are their enemy!" Everyone turned a shocked face to Seto except for Marik who stood with his arms crossed, looking smug.

Seto chose not to acknowledge Marik's accusation. "And what proof do you have of that?" Seto couldn't let Cat find out that he was from Tlanth like this. He had to make sure that she would come with him first, and then he would tell her. But no, not this way. She would think he betrayed and lied to her. Marik strode over to Seto before he could object and pushed up his sleeve, revealing the small KC imprinted on his arm.

"You see, I was telling the truth. He is Prince Seto Kaiba, and he is just here to steal the crystal!"

Seto jerked away from Marik as he glanced at Cat. She stood there in shock. Because while she knew that Seto was the prince, and she knew why he was there. She didn't know that Marik knew. And that came as quite a shock to her. Seto misread her reaction and closed his eyes. Guess he wouldn't be taking her after all. But he had the crystal, and that was what he came for. He reached into his pocket and wrapped his hand around the crystal.

"Alright, so now everyone knows who I am." He said in a calm voice. "And that means I have no reason to stay here with you freaks!" He said as he showed them that he possessed the crystal.

"The crystal." Yugi said.

"When did he get it?" Mai asked as Seto ran out the door, summoning his blue eyes. Cat, who had been too shocked to say anything, was snapped back to reality by Seto's rush to the door.  He wouldn't leave. No! He was a good person, she knew it. This was all just a joke! It had to be. Seto wouldn't do that, not to her. She chased after him, pushing past a surprised Marik. She searched the skies as she saw Seto's blue eyes, flying to the north and fast.

"SETO!" she yelled as she summoned her Pegasus. She jumped on its back as she flew after him. Seto saw her coming after him as he increased their pace, assuming she was trying to get back the crystal. Cat's Pegasus might be fast, but it was no match for his blue eyes. Cat went after Seto as long as she could, calling out to him; to no avail. He was simply to far ahead. Cat sadly turned her Pegasus back to home, tears blurring her vision. She had to turn back. Any further and she would be entering enemy territory, and who knew what would happen.

"Seto." She whispered sadly. "Please, come back. Don't leave me."
