What? it's friday? Already? Man this week was so fast, and once again I have four test next week, I swear the teachers are against us to give us exam all at the same time.

That remind me, this is the chapter where you finaly get most of the answer about Yugi's grandpa, the only story left will be Kaiba's (You'll see what I mean later) Now that I think about it I should start writing that part, I didn't write this story for 2 weeks now. But I'm wrong about, I really should be preparing for my writing comprehension, but what do you want, I'm such a procrastinate person.

Chapter eleven: Jonah Norisaka.

"Hey Mokuba…Mokuba!"

"W-what?" Mokuba snapped out of his reverie.

"What is wrong with you lately, you've been acting strange lately you know." Ryan said.

"I was just thinking…"

"About Seto." Mokuba nodded, he had told Ryan about what he had learned a few days ago. "Hey don't worry about it, I'm sure everything will be fine in no time. Beside mopping over it won't change anything."

"You're not helping."

"Hey it's not my fault, I'm so exited lately."

That's when Mokuba remembered. "That's right your mother's going to give birth soon isn't she?"

"Yup."

"So, is it a guy or a girl?" Mokuba asked remembering about their wish.

"I dunno, my mother didn't want to know."

That's when their little conversation (during class I must had) was interrupted by a knock on the door. "Mister Kaiba." The teacher called for him. Mokuba and Ryan exchanged look before Mokuba went out of the class.

Mokuba closed the door behind him and looked up at whoever wanted to talk to him, he was surprised to see the principal in person, why would he want to talk to him? No words were exchanged, Mokuba obediently followed the principal into his office, that's when he notice their was already someone inside, someone that meant trouble. Mokuba entered but the principal didn't followed, leaving him all alone with this woman.

Mokuba glared at the woman in front of him, she didn't seem to notice, after all even Kaiba couldn't intimidate her with his famous icing glare. When she saw his she stood up.

"Mr. Kaiba." She said with indifference.

"Mrs. Tomoya." Mokuba answered with the same tone of voice.

After those cold greeting she indicated him a seat before sitting back in her chair. "I'm assuming you know why I'm here."

Of course he knew, why else would Lisana Tomoya, the social worker who had tried for years to prove that being with Kaiba wasn't healthy for him, be here. "I'm afraid I don't, maybe you could enlighten me?"

"Don't play innocent with me, you know why I'm here so I'll get straight to the point. Where is your brother?"

"He's on vacation." Mokuba said innocently. "You were informed about it."

"Is that so, I'm sure you are aware of the condition you and your brother must respect I order for him to keep custody over you as long as he's a minor."

"Of course I do."

"Then I'm sure you know that one if these rules state that your brother must never be gone more than a month straight, also that we have to know exactly were he's going."

"And your point is?" Mokuba decided to keep playing innocent as long as he could.

"The point, as you call it, is that your brother had been gone for two months now and that no one, not ever the ones taking care of you know where he is."

"So? I'm sure he's fine, he's probably stuck somewhere."

"Who do you take me for, I don't care where your brother is or if he had been killed. The matter here is that he disobeyed more than one rule regarding your well being."

"And what do you know about my well being."

"That you are being neglected."

"That's not true."

"But I'm the one who makes the decision here and if I decide that you are that mean you are."

"What do you have against my brother anyway?"

"Nothing my dear, I'm just concerned about your well care, don't worry you'll be mush better in a foster home." Even Kaiba never sounded that sarcastic in all his life.

"I'm not coming with you."

"Like you have a choice."

Later that day Yugi and the others were doing some cleaning in the attic, it was finally the weekend and they were searching for a new game to try because they had tried every single one in the game shop and they wanted to think about something else than exam.

"Hey, what's that?" Seto asked. Everyone's eyes widened when they recognised what Seto was holding. It was a vase with a small Chinese box on top attached with a rope, the cursed game Imori had found a few years ago and tried to kill Yugi with. (If you'd never read the manga all you need to know is that this is a really really dangerous game.)

"It's something that you really don't want to be messing with, unless you want to die that is." Joey said.

Seto turned his eyes back to the game with curiosity, could this thing really kill someone…on second thought, I don't want to know. "No thanks, I'll pass."

"Hey Tea, what did you got there?" Tristan asked when he saw Tea wasn't searching anymore. "Tea did you heard me?"

Tea looked up. "What?"

"I was asking what you got there."

"Oh, nothing mush, it's just an old photo album." Tea showed them.

"Can I see it?" Yugi asked.

"Sure it's your house after all."

"It looks old if you ask me." Tea said.

Yugi looked at the date that was in it. "These were taken when my parent still had our age."

Yugi looked at some pictures until one caught his attention. The picture was one of his father but there was someone else with him, another kid a little taller with brown hair and dark grey eyes. "Who's this guys?" Yugi asked to himself.

Upon hearing Yugi all the other came to see what was going on, except from Seto who had left about 15 minutes ago. (An: God know why)

"Well if I had to guess I'd say he was your father's friends." Tristan said.

"Did you figure this on your own?" Joey asked. The two of them started to fight in the background.

"One thing's for sure, they were really close." Yugi said. "They're always together."

"Are you sure you don't know him?"

"I don't know, he sure looks awfully familiar, I'm sure I saw his face before but I can't recall where."

"Well he does looks like Kaiba a little bit." Joey stated.

"Yea, but that's not it, I'm sure I saw him somewhere else." Yugi continued to look trough the picture, with each passing page the feeling of knowing who this guy was grew stronger until Yugi arrived to the last picture, graduation day. That's where he recognised it.

"I got it."

"Got what?" Joey asked.

"I remember now where I saw this guy." Yugi stood up and went to his room, he started to search in all his drawer until he found an old magazine.

"This thing sure isn't new." Tristan said.

"No, in fact I got it before I ever duel Kaiba for the first time, it was about a year before we became friends."

"And what's no important about it?"

Yugi opened the magazine to a certain page and showed them. "Look." There was two pictures on the page, one of Kaiba and…

"Yug, you told me yourself it wasn't because he looked like Kaiba."

Yugi sighed. "Not Kaiba, look at the other picture, doesn't it ring a bell?"

"What about it?"

"I'll make it easy for you Joey." Yugi opened the photo album again and took one of the picture of the unknown guy, he placed it beside the second picture of the magazine. "Now do you see."

Joey blinked. "They look exactly the same."

"You think it's the same person?" Tea asked.

"I'm sure of it."

"And what's the link between him and Kaiba." Tristan asked. "And who's this guy anyway?"

"Jonah Norisaka." Tea said.

Joey and Tristan looked at her with confusion. "You mean you know him?" They asked in unison.

"Of course not, he's name's written under the picture idiots."

"But that doesn't tell me who this guy his?" Joey said.

"You mean you never heard of him?" Yugi asked.

"I should have?"

"Almost every duellist know him, he became the duel monsters world champion at 15 and he kept his title for 15 years."

"Was he really that good?"

"Good? Are you kidding, he was the best duellist that there ever was, he never lost more then 500 lp in a duel and he never even lost once."

"And how did he lost his title?" Tristan asked.

"You know already, his wife died so he stopped playing because he couldn't afford it anymore."

"Why does that sound familiar?" Tea asked.

That's when realisation hit them. "Hey isn't that what Seto said about his father?"

Yugi nodded. "This article was written when Kaiba became world champion, Jonah was the best duellist there ever was and he was quite a celebrity so when his son entered the championship writers all over the world wrote about it, wondering what they should expect from the child of the best player ever.

"And by his son…you don't mean Kaiba don't you?" Joey asked. Yugi nodded.

"But that would mean, that you father, and Kaiba's were friend." Tea said.

"I think we should ask grandpa about it."

However, when they came downstairs they saw that Yugi's grandfather was on the phone, and from the look of his face something bad was happening. That's when they spotted Seto, who looked quite curious.

"What's going on?" Yugi asked.

"I have no idea, he'd been talking for the past 10 minutes now."

All of them waited in silence until the old man finished his conversation. "Grandpa, we want to ask you something."

"Later Yugi, we have bigger problems now."

"Like what?" Joey asked.

"The principal of Mokuba's school just called, some social worker went to get Mokuba at school today, something about Kaiba not respecting the rule to keep custody."

"So that's why he didn't come back from school, I was starting to be worried." Joey said.

"Joey, he's with the social worker, that not good." Seto said.

"Don't worry, we'll just go and get him." Yugi's gramps said.

"And you think they'll let us."

"Just trust me, I know what I'm doing, are you coming or you want to stay here?"

They all thought about it for a second. "We're coming."

8888

"What do you want?" Mrs Tomoya asked, annoyed by the old man.

"We're here to get Mokuba of course, what else?" Mr. Muto answered as if it was the something totally normal.

"And where exactly do you think you are, Kaiba didn't obey the rule so we removed Mokuba from his care and that's final so get lost."

"And what rule exactly did he broke?"

"As you must know, he cannot be somewhere without the kid for more than one month straight."

"Oh is that so, but if I recall you are missing a condition for this rule to apply."

"Are you saying that I don't know how to do my job?"

"Of course not, just that you should read the small line, in that case you would have known that this rule doesn't apply when the kid is with a family member."

"And you are saying that you are? What a joke, the only living family the kid has his and uncle and that's where he's going to stay until he turns eighteen."

"Oh but I think you are mistaking, I am also a family member and Kaiba left him in my care."

"You're what?" All the others asked behind him.

"Judging from their reaction I'll say it nothing but I big lie."

"You can think whatever you want, but Mokuba's my grandson by adoption so that give me the right to take him back and if you don't believe me then you just have to check by yourself."

8888

"I don't believe it." Joey said once they reached the game shop, with Mokuba of course. "You and Kaiba are in the same family, that mean you share the same blood?"

"Don't you ever listen when someone is talking?" Mr Muto asked. "I said by adoption, I have no blood relation to them. I adopted Their father when he was 10."

"And of course you knew about this didn't you?" Joey asked Seto.

"…Yes I did."

"And you?" He turned to Mokuba

"No."

"Well that explain all those pictures." Yugi said.

"What pictures?" Mr Muto asked. Yugi handed him the album. "Oh, I see."

"So, you mind explaining everything to us?"

"Well now that you know everything I guess there is no arm to it. As you probably already know since you saw this album your father and Jonah were really good friends, in fact they were like brother. They meet when they were 5 in their first year at school, just like Kaiba Jonah was a genius so no one wanted to be with him, except you father the two of them quickly became inseparable.

However Jonah didn't really had that much of a family, he was the last of ten kids, both his parent and all his brother and sister were lazy, idiot, self-centred, egoist and thief to make the list short, to them Jonah was just the a new mouth to feed, they didn't cared about him. None of his parent were working, they were on social help, they were both drunks and they kept defrauding money everywhere they could.

They never really did anything for Jonah, in fact he always did everything he could to stay away from them. Most of the time he ended up here, he could stay here for two weeks straight and his parent never noticed he was gone, all this time I was the one to raise him. How he could be a genius in a family like that is still a mystery to me.

The thing is, when he was around 10 both his parent were arrested for fraud and they both got 8 years of prison. All his brothers and sister were send to foster care but I chose to adopt him, I had raised him for the past five years and to me he was my son."

"But in that case why didn't I never meet Kaiba before?" Yugi asked.

"You did, only you were way too young to remember. Before your father died you actually saw him quite often, but you were only three when your father died and your mother had to move away with so to have a better job. Two years after Jonah's wife died, leaving him alone with two kids, he never really recovered from the death of your father and his wife.

Gozaburo then decided to put his nose in Jonah life, the both of them hated each other since the first day they met, Gozaburo wanted Jonah to work for him, that was something Jonah would have never agree to do. When he refused Gozaburo started to threatening him and his children so was forced to move to another city. three years later Gozaburo asked him to work for him again, Jonah refused again, and two weeks later he died in a car accident. The policeman said he was drunk and probably lost control of his car but I know him, Jonah didn't drink, he had an accident when he was 17 because he had drink and never touched any kind of alcohol after that and anyway he would never have taken that risk with his kids in the car with him."

Joey turned to Seto. "You were in the car?"

Seto looked away. "I don't want to talk about it." He said as memories of the accident passed before his eyes.
