Lightning-Dono: Something I felt like writing because I was completely bored and on a sugar rush. :) And I'm intended to make this fanfic look neat, so I'm adding a disclaimer and everything. xD

Love Yourself - Yuugi Ou

In a world of love and hate, it's always 'He likes her, she loves him back' and vice versa. But in this crooked atmosphere, does anyone ever say 'He loves himself'?

Lightning-Dono doesn't own Yuugi Ou. If she did, she wouldn't be sitting around making lame fanfics. Plus, if she owned the series, she'd know possibly everything about Kaiba. But she doesn't, so that's reason enough to assume that she doesn't own the series and leave her alone.

Kaiba was a privileged child. No one ever bothered to mess with him and his younger brother because they knew that their parents would always have their backs, ready to defend them at any cost. Kaiba and Mokuba took great pride in this and never took advantage. Who knew what could come along and completely screw up their lives.

It was an overcast day when the two brothers were hand forced into an orphanage due to the deaths of their parents.

"I don't wanna go!" The youngest of the Kaiba family cried, his dark hair wet from tears.

The man shook his head and in a comforting whisper said, "It'll be okay. It's only temporary."

"Mokie, it'll be okay," Kaiba told his brother firmly, although he was a bit shaken himself. The man handling Kaiba ran his fingers through his hair, rippling it like water in a pond.

"We don't have time for this!" He yelled huskily to the other man. "Let's just take 'em in there and let them be! We deserve a lunch break."

The men hauled a struggling young boy and his calm, older sibling in that day.

It was there that the two brothers became outcasts of their own world, despite their ambitious attempts to keep each other happy. Children in the orphanage shunted them aside, neglecting the fact that the two children even existed.

Kaiba often had to comfort Mokuba when he cried and whisper his plans to make all the children in the world happy by creating an amusement park to calm the boy down.

They lived like this for years.

Mokuba was only two years old. His brother was seven.
