"Just drop me off here" Kari said looking out the window
Seto pulled over.
"You're really going then?"
"Yea" She nodded "Dunno where though…Thanks for everything"
Seto locked the doors.
"What are you doing?" She looked at him puzzled
He said nothing. He pulled off the curb and continued home.
The pair walked into the Kaiba mansion. Kari was dripping wet from running in the rain.
"Go get dried" Seto spat
"Why did you come get me?"
Again he said nothing, just walked to his office. Kari ran infront of him and stopped him.
"Tell me!" She looked sternly at him
Seto looked down at her. She wasn't that much shorter than him just a few inches. He looked deep into her eyes. They looked empty like there was something missing, he knew what it was.
"For Mokuba" He finally said and walked around her to his office
"That's a lie!!" She shouted after him
He stopped. Was it a lie? He didn't know himself, all he knew was that Mokuba was really attached to her and just wanted to keep him happy, he knew Kari could do that. He walked into his office and sat at his desk again. He wondered who those people were and what hey wanted with Kari, were they going to use her to get to him? Was she who they thought she was? Did she really have amnesia and was playing him for a fool? If she was, why did she save Mokuba? His thoughts were interrupted by a thud down the corridor. He walked over and opened the door finding Kari sat leaning against the wall in Mokuba's tight hug. They looked at him.
"Did we interrupt something Seto?" Kari asked
"Just my trail of thought" He grunted
"Sorry big brother"
"Yea, sorry Seto"
He grunted again and closed the door. Kari stuck her tongue out.
"You like him really" Mokuba laughed
"Well he is hands-wait-no!"
"See you do!"
"No I don't"
"Yes you do! Admit it!"
Kari looked at the door then at Mokuba.
"It's a secret ok" She winked
"Sure!" He grinned
"Right go pester Seto for a bit while I take a shower"
Mokuba nodded and bolted into Seto's office.
"He can't keep a secret, good thing Seto won't believe him" She laughed and walked to the bathroom.
The water ran down Kari's slender body, down the few cuts and bruises she still had and down the drain. She turned the shower off and grabbed a towel. She dried off and put on the silk nightgown and dressing gown her and Tea had bought. She peered out of her room and walked to Seto's office. She knocked on the door.
"What!!??" The familiar annoyed voice yelled
Kari opened the door and looked in.
"Wanna cupper coffee?" She asked
"No!" He snapped
"Moody" Was the last thing she said and closed the door before Seto could react
Seto glared at the door then looked back at his laptop. He glanced at his laptop every so often.
10:30
"Still early"
12:30
"I can manage another hour"
3:45
"Still not tired"
4:55
A scream rang through the halls. It sounded like Kari. Seto darted to her room and looked in.
"Kari?"
"I'm in the bathroom.." A soft voice answered
Seto walked into the bathroom. He saw her pale complexion in the mirror.
"Are you ok?" He slowly asked
"What do you care?" She snapped
Seto growled.
"Did I wake you?" She asked
"I was already awake"
"Oh, well I'm ok now…"
Seto nodded and left. Kari looked in the mirror again.
"Was that just a nightmare…or my memories?"
