Chapter 10
(A/N: Ok… how to do this? I'm just gonna leave it at normal POV and let you see what their saying and what they do…)
Seto: Is this Makura?
Kura: Yes, and who are you?
Seto: It's me Kura, Seto Kaiba.
Kura: (gasp) Seto…? OMG! Are you ok? What happened? Are you getting enough rest and food?
Mokuba: It's Seto?! What's he saying? Let me see! (trying to grab phone)
Seto: Yes, yes, don't worry about me. I'm fine… (looks down at wound)
Kura: (holding up phone so Mokuba can't reach) Well, that's great! Me, Kari, and Mokuba have been worried sick about you all week. We thought you might be hurt.
Seto: Oh, I almost forgot to ask, how is Mokuba?
Kura: Oh, just great. Nothing bad happened (thinking back to when Seto first left and when Suzuki and Carlo kidnapped them)
(A/N: He he, they're both liers)
Mokuba: KURA! Let me talk to him!!!! (still trying to get phone)
Seto: (smiles) well, that's good, I cn already hear Mokuba in the backround, let me talk to him.
Kura: (rolles eyes) ok, ok, here ya go squirt (hands phone to Mokuba)
Mokuba: (quickly snatches it) Seto? Seto is that you?
Seto: (smiles at sound of his voice) yes Mokuba, it's me.
Mokuba: (tears forming in eyes) Oh big brother, I thought you were hurt, and I was afraid that you would die every day after you left. I could never get my mind off of you. Are you alright. Did you get shot at all?
Seto: (looks down, can't lie to his brother) Well… you see… there's a very good story to that…
Mokuba: YOU GOT SHOT?!
Kura/Kari: (turn to Mokuba)
Kura: Whart? He didn't… SETO! (stomps over and snatches phone) SETO KAIBA! How could you lie to me about that?!
Seto: (shrugges and slides to the ground in phone booth, moans) Please just put Mokuba back on…. (feeling guilty)
Kura: (slams phone into Mokuba's hand and crosses arms) That Seto Kaiba… he is going to be in SO much trouble when he gets back….
Mokuba: Seto?
Seto: Phew, your back on.
Mokuba: You lied to Kura…?
Seto: Mokuba… a lot of things have happened over the past few days. I didn't want you guys to worry so mush about me.
Mokuba: But Seto… we're your family….
Seto: No Mokuba, you're my family, Kura and Kari are my friends. But I couldn't lie to you.
Mokuba: Seto, the first rule about friendship is telling the total truth…
Seto: I know Mokuba, I know. I still have a long way to go in that department. But I don't want you to worry. It barely hurt, and it just skid my skin (looking down at wound, the bullet had hurt like hell, it had deeply gone through his body) So you don't have to worry.
Mokuba: (wipes tear and sniffs) O-Ok…
Seto: (eyes widen) Mokuba…? Are you crying?
Mokuba: (starts to cry) y-yes…
Seto: (feeling really guilty that he is hearing his brother cry and can't help him) Oh Mokuba, it's gonna be ok…. I promise, I'll be back before you know it… and I'll take the whole week off, just you and me kid… ok?
Mokuba: (wipes tear) Alright… I j-just miss you s-so much…
Seto: (wiping his own tear) I know kid… me too…. You know, I couldn't stop thinking about you the day I left… I kept hoping I wouldn't die on you… and I even made friend too…
Mokuba: You did?
Seto: Yep… he's annoying as hell… but… (looks out of phone booth and at Josh who was making a few jokes with he nurse) he's still pretty good for starters…
Mokuba: (wipes away remaining of tears) Wow… I'm so happy for you Seto…
Seto: Yes… but enough about me, how are you holding out Mokuba?
Mokuba: Oh… (turns to Kura and Kari, Kura was making sign language telling him to say he was ok so Kura wouldn't get in trouble) eveything's just fine… nothing new happened…. Oh, I can't lie to you ether!
Kura: (hits forehead)
Mokuba: Seto, the day you left, I lost so much oxygen in my lungs, I almost died. And when I was being picked on at school, the day after you left, Suzuki and Carlo kidnapped me and HiKari.
Seto: OMG, Mokuba! What did they do to you? Are you ok? Did they hurt you??
Mokuba: Well, not really, they just threw me off the Domino bridge…
Seto: (eyes widened)
Mokuba: And then they slit Kari's arm and it was really bloody… (turns to Kari)
Kari: (gripping her bandage, worried Seto might get mad at Kura for everything that had happened)
Mokuba: But if it wasn't for her, I might be in the Sea of Japan…
Seto: Oh Mokuba… was Kura using her silly sign language to tell you not to tell me?
Mokuba: (turns to Kura, seeing her sign language not to say anymore) Yeah, pretty much…
Seto: Oh… little brother, can I talk to Kari? Is she there?
Mokuba: (nods) Yes big brother, do you want to talk to her.
Seto: Yes, I'll get back to you after, ok?
Mokuba: Ok (hands the phone to Kari) He wants to talk to you.
Kari: (takes a deep breath and puts phone up to face) Hello?
Seto: Hey, I heard what you did for Mokuba (twirling hair) How's your arm?
Kari: (looks down at arm and squeezes it) Ok… just alright.
Seto: I just wanted to give you the proper thank you.
Kari: Oh, well, it's the least I could do. Plus, Mokuba's the cute one.
Seto: (chuckles) Well, I guess I can't argue with that one. Hey, please look out for him, would you? I miss him so much, and I wanna make sure that right person is always by him.
Kari: (gasps) You mean me? (points to herself)
Seto: Of course, you've been watching out for Mokuba ever since you met him. Watching his back, getting him out of fights, talking with him, I have complete faith in you.
Kari: (smiles) Well, thank you Seto. (turns to Kura) Oh, and would you like to talk to Kura?
Kura: (making signs to say no)
Seto: Ok, and ignore the sign language she's making right now.
Kari: (in perky voice) Ok! (skips over to Kura) Here you go Kura, Seto's on (hands phone to Kura)
Kura: (shurgges) Hello?
Seto: Hey Kura, how are you holding out?
Kura: (crosses arms) Just fine. You might've never noticed it because you were busy, but these 2 can be a handful after a while.
Seto: (looks at ground) Well… things are gonna be different when I get back. Very different.
Kura: (raises eyebrow) They will?
Seto: Kura… I love you… I just never had the guts to say.
Kura: (gasps, blushes) Seto…? Are you feeling alright?
Seto: (looks up, sees Josh heading his way) Yes. I'll be back home real soon. Tell my brother I love him. Bye. (hangs up.)
Kura: (stares at phone)
Mokuba: So what did he say?
Kura: That he loves me…
-Seto-
"Hey! There you are!" Josh said, running over to Seto. Seto slowly got to his feet, "Yes, yes, I'm here"
"Hey, who were you talking to?"
"Just… my family. Just them." Josh stared at Seto. "O…K… anywayz, the commander wants to know if your alright, you just ran out like nothing happened. "Yes, well, I had to talk to them." Josh smiled. "I completely understand. You don't have to explain. Just don't do it again, ok?"
Now Seto smiled, he nodded. They stood for a few seconds in silence. "Well… come on. They're serving dinner right now, don't wanna be late for that, do we?" Seto smiled and nodded. "I guess not."
