Chapter 12

-Mokuba-

Mokuba gulped, he stood in front of Karis door. Ever since Kari had run off after yesterday's insident, she hadn't come out of her room, even for lunch and dinner. Kura had tried talking to her, but it was useless. So Mokuba figured, since HiKari adored him so much, maybe he had half the chance to set things right… for once. Mokuba took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" came a faint voice. Without saying, Mokuba opened the door.

"Kari?" Mokuba peeked inside. The room was dark, there was HiKari, curled up in her bed, she looked half dead, and half awake. Stains of dried tear on her face were visible. "Kari? OMG, what have you been doing?"

She clutched the pillow she had in her arms even harder as she buried her head in it and began crying once more. "Oh Kari" Mokuba said, walking over to Kari's bed side. "You have to stop this right now. Your worrying your sister to death." Kari just shook her head. "Kari, you haven't eaten all day, I'm getting you out of this room right now" Mokuba grabbed Kari's wrist.

He gasped when he saw the cuts and dried blood on them. Kari ripped away her wrist from Mokuba's grasp. "Kari… how could you?"

"How could she…" Kari simply said. "Kura was only trying to save you… to save us…" Mokuba placed his hand on her shoulder. "Actually, this is all my fault, if I hadn't."

"No, it's not. If Kura hadn't"

"Karfi, this doesn't sound like you. You NEVER pushed the blame on your sister, why the sudden change? What was so wrong?" Kari sniffled and sat up. "You don't know what it's like…"

"I do…" Kari turned to Mokuba. He pulled her closer to him. "Listen Kari"

"NO! You listen, Kura was everything. She was my hero. And then she goes off and does that, I can never look at her the same. She was so good and modest, and then she pulls something like that off."

"But she use to" Mokuba showed Kari her wrist. Kari pulled it back again. "I know, but it wasn't her fault, everyone was against her, even herself, all she could do was punish herself. This was different."

"Then why are you punishing yourself?"

"Cause I hate myself…" Mokuba looked down. "Ok, you stay here, I'm gonna get the only person who can help." Mokuba got up and left the room. "Mokuba…" Mokuba turned around. She appeared out of the room with tears on her face. "How is she? How's my little sister?"

"You're the only one who can help her."

"But"

"Look, if you won't do something now, Kari's gonna kill herself." Kura stood there in silence, staring at Mokuba. He pointed to Kari's door, "I know you can do something if you try, please… save her. Like you did many times before." Kura looked at Mokuba still, then a face of determination appeared on her face.

"Ok, I'll do it." Kura turned and walked in without knocking. "HiKari Joan Bruder" Kari looked up. She quickly turned away at the sight of Kura. "What are YOU doing here? Go away." Kura opened the shades letting light into the room. Kari covered her eyes. "Kari, its about time you get out of this god forsaken room." Kura walked over and flicked on the lights. Kari put her pillow over her face.

Kura grabbed it and threw it across the room. Kari sat up, filled with anger. "What's your problem?? YOU waltz right into MY room as if" Kura walked up and hugged her sister tightly. Kari sat there in her sister's arms with shock. "W-What are you doing?"

"I'm sorry Kari, I was only doing what was best for you. I didn't want my baby sister getting hurt like I have been so many times."

"There you go, acting like I'm some kind of kid" Kari said, her tone of voice cold and dark. Kuyra stopped and pushed Kari out of her hug to look at her. Instead of an angry glare, Kari was smiling. "And I'm glade you did" Kari said, now hugging her sister back. "Now that's the sister I grew up with… now come on, let's bandage those cuts" Kura said, helping Kari up to her feet.

"But how did you know?"

"We're sisters, remember? I'm suppose to know this kind of stuff." Kari smiled and followed her sister out of her room and reappearing in the Kaiba Mansion.

-Seto-

Seto was walking towards the enterance to the next plane to Domino, Japan. His walk and heart full of pride. "Wait! Kaiba!" Seto turned around, Josh ran up to Seto, a big grin on his face. "You didn't think you were gjust gonna leave without me, did ya?" Seto smiled.

"That was kinda why I wanted to leave so quick." Josh and Seto laughed together. "Next plane to Domino, Japan, all aboard in the next 10 minutes." Seto smiled up at the monitor. He turned back to Josh, he placed his hand on his shoulders. "Well, I guess this where we part friend."

"Hey, you don't think I'm just gonna let you leave without letting me see that rascal of a little brother you have, do ya?" Seto grinned now as well. "Fine, come on, let's go before it leaves without us."

Josh smiled, "Cool" They walked onto the plane and sat down together. Josh sat next to the window, watching the plane take off. Seto just laid back in his chair, his eyes beginning to close. A smile on his face. He was finally going to see his brother. Finally.
