Chapter Three: Enter Mystic, the Other Kaiba

(Kaido P.O.V.)

"The Hiryuu Bandit has finally come to Domino City, bringing with her the terror she has induced in other countries." It was the middle of the night, me and Marik were still awake watching the news. I had come to Domino from Egypt because of a phone call from Seto, and I was ready for a chance to go off at Pegasus. I would of killed him for free, but getting cash for something I wanted to do and acting reluctant had it's rewards. Marik had come to Domino to 'congradulate' me, I had a pocketful of cash, and Pegasus was scared shitless. And what's more, I was on the news! "Mr. Maximillion Pegasus is her target, seeing as almost all of his security was wipped out by Kaido. When asked for a comment, Mr. Pegasus had this to say:

'"I don't understand why she wants to hurt little old me, I don't have anything she would want. She's after the Millennium Items, and I lost my Millennium Eye after my Duelist Kingdom tournament ended." Pegasus put on a mock confused face, fooling everyone but me and Marik. "Even I'm fuzzy on the details of what happened, I hit my head so hard and all. The only person I can think of that might want me out of the way, aside from those hunting the Millennium Items, is Seto Kaiba. But the idea of him hiring an asassin is rediculous, he's more of a 'take-care-of-his-own-dirty-work' kind of buisness man. Those siblings of his, maybe. But Kaiba-boy himself, I severly doubt it."'

"If you have any information about the Hiryuu Bandit, you are urged to call the Domino Police Department. In othe-" I turned the TV off and got up, pulling a pair of shorts on under my night shirt and heading toward the door.

"Where ya goin', the news report wasn't that bad was it?" "No, I'm gonna go raid the fridge for a beer. Want one?" "No, Ishizu's pissed off enough at me for the time being. I'll take a soda if there's any down there, though." "There's always pop in this house, usually have to hunt it down though. If I'm not back in 10 minutes, feel free to come down looking for me." I walked downstairs and heard a knock on the door, winding up talking to Mystic Kaiba. "Why are you here, Mystic?"

"Seto is absolutely pissed, he wants to talk to you and Marik right now. Speaking of which, where is he?" "Upstairs, I just came down here for a beer. Why is Kaiba so mad, did he see the newscast?" "Oh yeah, we watched the rest of it on the way over here. Go wake Marik up, or Seto's gonna go off on you guys."

"What about me?" "Come on Marik, we're going to Kaiba's." "But I'm in my -" "Boxers? Yes, I know that. And they suit you, I don't think you've ever looked sexier. Now move!" I began pushing Marik out the door, ignoring his protests. "Isn't this illegal?" "Yes, but so is attempted murder and engaging in sexual acts in a public area. You've done both of those things, now move if you don't want me to call Ishizu." "You wouldn't!" "Try me!" "Nevermind."

"Winged Dragon-Ra boxers? How cute is that?" Mystic said, shoving me and Marik in the back of a limo. She jumped in after us and slamed the door, helping untangle the pile everyone had wound up in. "Um, sorry Seto. I guess it's a bit chilly out there after all. Alright, now whose foot do I have a hold of?"

"Mine." Kaiba said, trying his damnedest to get free. After about ten minutes, everyone was sitting around rubbing various bruises and scraches. "What was that all about, Mystic?"

"I said I'm sorry Seto, but no one other than us idiots is up at 12:30 in the morning. With Marik's complaining and the fact that it's cold out there, we'd wake everybody up." "And whose fault is it that I'm complaining about being drug out of a house in my boxers, woman!?!" "Well, technically Seto's. Does this guy have to drive so fast, we're almost home. It's a 30 minute drive, and it's only been 12. Oh well, I'm hungry."

"You're always hungry, Mystic. Is Pizza Hut open this late, or are we stuck with my pathetic cooking?" "Hopefully there's a Pizza Hut open this late, or Taco Bell, or Wendy's or something like that." (A/N: do any of those places exist in japan? oh well, they do now!) "Wendy's sounds good, but they don't deliver and I'm not coming back out here. It's either pizza or my cooking, which will it be?" We all exchanged a look then said to Kaiba: "Pizza."

"So, is there a such thing as booz in your fridge, or am I stuck going to the carry-out?" "My house always has alcohol, you know that." "Can I raid your fridge then, since I didn't get a chance to raid mine?" "Whatever." "Thanks." Everyone piled back out of the limo, shivering before they got inside. "Damn, why is it this cold in October? It's supossed to be fall, why does it feel more like winter." "Who knows? Did you see the news report about you, Seiyousa?" "Yes Kaiba, I saw the news report. What about it?" "My name was mentioned, runt. Why is that, did you say something about me?" "No, Pegasus must of peiced it together. I'm older than most of the other people with Millennium Items, so I'm not taking orders from them. And no one but us knows I have my own personal reasons for wanting Pegasus dead, since you guys don't even know what my reasons are."

Kaiba called Pizza Hut and went to get Marik a pair of pants to put on, sitting around for a while afterwards downing beers. I just shrugged and joined him, passing out on the couch an hour later.

Domino High; Lunch Hour

"What're we doing in algebra today, Mystic." Yugi asked, sitting with me, Mystic and Marik. (A/N: try saying that five times fast.) The rest of the gang joined us shortly afterwards, not too happy to see me. "Hi there, um... I forgot your name." He said to me, making me think for a minute. Kaiba said your name was Satoshin. Thanks Yami.

"My name's Satoshin, but most people call me Sato. About yesterday, I wanna apologize. Yami isn't exactly the nicest of people, and she seems to have a history with Pharoah Atemu." I said, laughing at the embarrassment pouring through my mental link. "That was a good duel yesterday, Yugi."

"Thanks, but is that yami of yours always that much of a psychopath?" "Forget the psychopathic yami's, did you guys see the news paper this morning?" "No, why Ryou?" "Look at this, I cut it out of the paper this morning when dad was done with it." Ryou set a news paper clipping on the lunch table. "Uh, Ryou? What's this say?" "Crap, I forgot! Anyone still carrying their notebook with them, I'll rewrite it... Again." "Whaddya mean 'again'?" "I had to rewrite it for dad, it was in kanji and the only things he can read are plain English and Egyptian Heiroglyphs." "Oh, in that case here ya go." Yugi handed Ryou a notebook and pencil, Ryou beginning to rewrite the clipping. I'd been glancing through it while they were talking, but only recognized my name and the word asassins. After a few minutes, Ryou sat the paper out for us to see.

'It has been reported that the infamous CEO of Kaiba Corp, Seto Kaiba Himself has hired the well known asassins, Kaido Seiyousa, and Marik Ishtar, to take down his long time rival Maximillion Pegasus. It has also been reported that Kaiba's younger sister, Mystic Kaiba has joined the infamous couple in there quest to take Pegasus out. Local athorities are searching the city for the murderous trio, and have sworn to bring them to justice as quickly as possible. We will continue this report as more details are known. Untill then, all citizens should stay inside and keep their doors locked at all times.'

"It's about the Hiryuu Bandit, I saw a lot of this stuff on the news this morning. My mom said that Kaido became a bandit when she was five, and even had a Millennium Item. Just like the one Satoshin had yesterday, I think it's called the Millennium Blade." I nodded at Téa's remark, swallowing the 'Kool-Aid' I had in my water bottle. "So if the Hiryuu Bandit had the Millennium Blade then, how do you have it now?" That got everyone's attention, even Yami was interested to see how I got myself out of this one.

"Kaido Seiyousa is my cousin, she told me to keep an eye on the Blade for her while she was away. I don't know where she went, but they said she's in Domino now. That's why I came here, hoping that I could find her and give her the Millennium Blade back. And her yami, she's been getting on my nerves a lot lately." HEY! Shut up Yami, I'm kidding! I had to come up with something at least half-believable, or they'd get suspicious! Do you wanna go back to jail or something?! No, not really. Then shut it! "I'm sorry, did you say something Mystic?"

"Yeah, Seto has been glaring daggers at his laptop since he sat down. He hasn't eaten either, and you remember what he did last night when he got home." I nodded and glanced over at Kaiba, wondering why he was so pissed. "I'm gonna go see if he's okay, I'll be right back. Keep Joey away from my lunch, alright?"

"Sure, lemme know what's up." I said, an idea already forming in my mind. I downed another gulp of my water bottles' content, hoping I'd watered it down enough to where the smell wasn't noticable. Having a bottleful of whiskey in school was nerve- racking enough, I'd be toast if some one found out about it. "So what's up with your brother, Mystic?" "Man, I still find it hard ta believe we're all friends with a Kaiba."

"Seto doesn't always act like he does at school, he just get's frustrated easily. And it turns out that Pegasus is pulling another tournament outta his ass, and you hafta compeat if you get an invite. So in other words, start check both your email and snail mail for a letter from Industrial Illusions." I cringed at the thought of having to compeat in a tournament, especially if Pegasus was holding it. I was bound to get an invite, and the place would probably be swarming with cops. Damn, life just went from bad to worse.

After School; Domino Cemetary

I'm sorry dad, I let you down that day. Mom died because I couldn't kill them fast enough, it was all my fault! I'm sorry I let you die mom, I guess I am worthless. I swore to avenge you though, no matter how many people I had to slaughter to do it. The police don't scare me any more than they scared you, dad. Your murders won't be in vain, I swear you this. "I love you, mom and dad." I whispered, draining the rest of my whiskey.

"How cute, it does have a soft side." "Who the fuck are you, naive?" "I am Bakura, one would think you'd recognize me Raikuru. After everything we've been through together, you don't recognize your own lover?" I listen through the link at the conversation taking place between mine and Ryou's yami's, confused as hell over everything. Lover? I thought Raikuru was with the Pharoah 5,000 years ago, but apparently I was wrong.

TBC...


Author Note: Okay, long chapter. Yes, Kaido is revealing her softer side here. It's called foreshadowing, every good horror story has it. YAY! I got a whole two reviewers! Four reviews, but only two reviewers. Nevermind, on to the review responses!

VeryShortMidget: you didn't ask a dumb question, i just didn't specify. yes, kaido and seiyousa are the same person. as the news broadcast said, kaido's full name is 'kaido hiryuu seiyousa'. and yes, kaido and marik were gittin 'er dun! um, don't ask about that. i am very weird, but you know that since you read senselessness.

Mystic S Kaiba: you tell your brother to calm down, i ain't telling him nothing! the gory parts won't be forgotten, they just aren't here yet. and you do realize that 'detail' will get me grounded, right? i told you this in an email, but the detail is in a story called CutScenes. i'll email you a link when i get the kaido/ marik stuff posted, that sound cool?

Thanks to all those who reviewed, and I hope to see you reviewing this chapter!
