A Song for Seto

Chapter 5: Battle of the Giants
Sigh I don't know any famous violinists so I just made one up.
~~
It had been a month since Kumiko had moved into the appartment that Seto had bought her. She continued to play in a small café unless on some special nights she would be hired to play at a benefit or the cruise ships that went out to see and came back by nightfall.
Not long after, Seto had had a very odd dream. He was sitting in the front row listening to Kumiko play her violin as he always did when she was hired to play for concerts and things. She'd play lovely as away. However, unlike the usual when she would be getting off the stage, two ugly brutes would come up to her and say, "We've come to bring you home Miss Kaiou. Mr Kaiou says you are to never play again."
The two men dragged Kumiko while she flailed and screamed, "Someone stop these men. I don't want to go back." Shinining tears fell from her eyes as she shouted, "Seto please save me!"
However when he tried to approach there was an invisible wall. He banged on it screaming for them to leave Kumiko alone, but no sound could be heard from Seto's mouth. He could only watch helplessly as Kumiko was dragged away.
The scene changed and he was alone in a black dark room where he couldn't see anything. He then saw a spot of light that he walked towards. There sitting on the floor was Kumiko, older, all dressed up in a business suit with her hair tied back in a bun. She stared into his eyes with her cold, sad eyes, no longer brown but black and souless she said, "Why did you not help me Seto? I thought we were friends." Tears rolling down her face just as when the men had taken her away
"I did Kumiko" he told her, "I tried to save you, but I couldn't go near."
"Why didn't you come get me Seto? Why did you abandon me?" she cried as she faded away into the background
"WAIT! KUMIKO!" he shouted and then woke up in the middle of the night with a cold sweat.
~~
A week had passed since Seto had had this dream, and with all the things Seto was busy with, the dream went to the back of his mind and he had completely forgotten about it. He was currently making a phone call with good news for his friend.
"Hello?" came the voice he was waiting for
"Kumi, are you busy tonight?" Kumiko had made Seto call her by her shortened name because she found Kumiko long and formalized
"Would it make a difference if I said yes?" she asked laughing
"Actually, no" he said
"Very well what do you have in mind."
"Just bring your violin and dress nicely"
Kumiko sighed, "This better not be some sort of business dinner again Seto or I'm going to start charging you."
"Don't worry it isn't. I'll come pick you up around 6:30" he chuckled
~~
That evening, Kumiko was setting her hair when "Ding-Dong" went the doorbell.
"Coming!!" she shouted as she put in a last hair pin and walked down the stairs
She opened the door, "Wow right on the minute Seto. See you can be on time if you wanted to be" she teased
"And you look nice this evening as well Kumi. Are you ready yet?" he said admiring her choice in dress. It was a sparkling satin halter evening gown.
"Yea just let me go get my violin case and we can leave"
~~
They sat down, a waiter came up to Seto at one point asking if he'd like to start ordering, but he simply told him that they were still waiting for someone.
"Who are we waiting for Seto?"
"You'll see." He replied "And here he comes right now." He said getting up from his seat. "Good evening Mr."
Seto had not been able to finish his greeting when Kumiko had jumped from her chair and screamed, "Oh my goodness. It's Francis Lafille the most famous french violinist known in the 21st century."
"Well looks like you've been recognized Mr. Lafille" both men laughed as Kumiko sat back down in her chair and blushed a fine shade of red
~~
Little did they know, Kumiko's outburst had been a most terrible mistake. Sitting not far from them sat Kumiko's father. He had been very surprised to see his daughter here and what made his blood boil, sitting next to her was Seto Kaiba. How dare he have known the location of his daughter and not have told him. Mr. Kaiou was officially seeing fire when he saw his daughter get up from her seat and started playing for the two men.
~~
Kumiko was playing her favorite piece, the one she had played for Seto for the first time. Her happy memories of all the times she had been through making the song even more beautiful and filled with emotions. When she had finished the whole restaurant burst with applause.
"Bravo!" congratulated Mr. Lafille as Kumiko blushed again, "I haven't seen such emotion in such a long time. You have quite a wonderful talent there, ma Cherie. I would be honoured if you would permit me to help you refine your talent to perfection."
Kumiko was about to answer yes when someone shouted, "Over my dead body!"
"Daddy?" her eyes widened
Seto got up from his chair, "Mr Kaiou." although he had not finished his sentence before he realized Kumiko's father had punched him in the face, Kumiko ran over to Seto.
"How dare you Kaiba. How could you know where my daughter was and not tell me?"
"You leave Seto out of this daddy. I ran away on my own."
"Mr Kaiou I suggest you calm down. This is after a restaurant and unless you wish to carry on in front of so many people I suggest you leave now." Seto got up with Kumiko's help.
"I'm so sorry Seto" she said as tears dropped from her teary eyes
"It's ok it's not your fault," he said trying to smile, but it hurt too much and he hissed in pain.
~~
The next morning at work was hectic at work. Employees would be muttering about how he got his bruised jaw. By closing time, Seto had already heard a few versions, boxing match, mugged, and many others, but when one of them had suggested girl trouble the others would just laugh. Little did they know it was exactly what it was. Seto sat in his office when the phone rang.
"Good Evening Mr. Kaiba, this is Mr. Kaiou and I would like to apologize for my actions at the restaurant last night."
"No harm done I suppose." Said Seto still a little peeved
"Anyways I would also like to apologize to my daughter could you please tell me where she is currently located."
"I'm afraid that is not for me to tell you unless it is Kumiko's wish that I tell you."
"Kaiba, Kumiko is my daughter I have the right to know where she is. You know where she is and I want you to tell me now."
"Mr Kaiou, I consider Kumiko my friend, and I don't really make friends so easily and when I do I wish to keep them. I will not betray her trust this way."
"Look Kaiba just tell me where she is and we'll all be happy. I hope you will not make me result in doing something rash."
"What you do is none of my business sir. However I respect Kumiko's privacy so I am forced to decline."
"Don't regret your choice Kaiba because you can consider our business over"
"I won't regret it, Kumiko's truth is worth more then that" he said at the click of the phone and then the dial tone.
"Do you really think of me as a friend?" came a voice from the door

Another day another chapter, well hope you liked it, please review to read the next chap that I have in store for you. This one was a bit short I'll try to make the next one longer.
