I'm Back: Chapter 2

The Miracle

"Gosh, you'd think most people would have the common decency to flush the toilets when they're finished." Cylina thought in disgust as she finished cleaning the women's bathroom.

"Cylina, are you almost finished?" She could hear Adam calling her from the front.

"Yeah. Why?"

"There's someone here to see you."

"All right. I'll be out in a second." She called back as she washed her hands at one of the sinks.

Adam poked his head in. "I gotta go, Cylina. Close the place up for me when you're done?"

"Sure." She heard Adam leave as she put the cleaning supplies in the closet. Afterwards, she went to the front.

When she got there, she froze. She had half expected to see Mokuba, but instead there were two men in suits with sunglasses on. They looked like part of the President's Secret Service. One of them started walking up to her.

"No!" she screamed frantically, "I won't go! You can't take me!" He stopped and looked at the other one in confusion. "I won't go back yet, but when I do you'll wish you never heard of me!" She made a bolt for the door.

"Wait!" The first one grabbed her wrist. "We were sent to . . ."

"Let me go you freak!" She was about to kick him when the other one grabbed her waist and sat her in a chair.

"Just calm down, Miss. We're not going to hurt you!" Cylina stopped squirming.

"You're not?"

The first one sighed, "No we're not. We were sent by Seto Kaiba to bring you to Kaiba Corp."

"You were sent by who?" asked Cylina, still a little suspicious.

"By Seto Kaiba." the other one repeated.

"Never heard of him." she crossed her arms over her chest. The men were staring at her in astonishment.

"Seto Kaiba? The owner of Kaiba Corp? Host of the Battle City Tournament?" Cylina straightened up.

"Oh, you mean that guy."

"Yes, we mean 'that guy'." They seemed impatient.

"Well, what does he want with me? I've never seen him before in my life."

"You had lunch with his little brother yesterday."

"He's Mokuba's brother!"

"Yes, and he wants to speak with you. We're here to make sure he gets what he wants;" They took her by the arms, a little too forcefully for her comfort. "so would you please get into our limo, and we'll take you to him."

"How about I follow you in my car."

"No." They said simultaneously, as they "escorted" her to the limo.

"Can I at least . . ."

"No." They shut and locked the car door.

"Mr. Kaiba's gonna hear about this." Cylina thought with an offended frown, as they drove her away.

Kaiba sat in his office facing the windows. 'They'll be back any minute with this Cylina girl.' he thought. 'Why does that name sound so familiar?' He sat up. 'She wouldn't be the daughter of . . . no, of course not.' He heard a knock at the door.

"Mr. Kaiba?" It was his secretary. "Miss Cylina is here."

"Send her in." he replied in his deep, monotonous voice. He continued to face the windows as he heard someone come in and sit down.

After a few minutes, he heard a female voice say, "Well you're just as rude as your limo drivers." Kaiba was shocked, he had expected to hear a meek waitress' voice; but instead he heard a dignified one. She sounded almost as if she had met someone of his status before. He put his coldest face on before turning around.

"How dare you!" he accused, glaring at her.

"How dare you drag me all the way up here, telling me you need to discuss something and then leave me to stare at the back of your chair." She looked dignified too. Her posture was perfect, her eyes never wondered from his, and she seemed to have a commanding presence about her. She looked more like she belonged in a business suit than that waitress' uniform; with her curls pulled up instead of hanging half way down her back. The only other thing that seemed out of place was the choker around her neck, it was a black cord with the name 'Kile' ingraved in a silver rectangle. He may even classify her as beautiful; which was odd because Kaiba never looked at girls that way.

He leaned back, seemingly unconcerned. "Do you know a boy named Mokuba?" he asked coldly.

"I met one yesterday. He was upset because his 'Big Brother' didn't have enough time for him." She raised an eyebrow.

"I have time for him!" Seto replied angrily.

"I didn't say you didn't have time for him. I said you didn't have enough time for him, there's a difference." Seto stared at her for a moment, trying to figure out how she had put him on the defensive. Her cool green eyes were staring strait into his deep blue ones. Shaking it off, he continued.

"Yesterday, when Mokuba got back from your diner, he told me that he wanted me to help you." Kaiba was speaking to her in his coldest, most uncaring voice, but it didn't seem to effect her.

"With what?" she asked, slightly confused.

"He said, you said that you were short on money." He made it sound likehe didn't want her there,like she was wasting his time; but she still remained as calm and cool as he was. 'Who is she?' he thought.

"I could use a little more than I currently have, but it's no big deal." She didn't seem concerned.

"Who are you?" Seto asked, leaning forward slightly.

"My name's Cylina, I thought you knew that."

"I mean what's your full name?"

"Cylina Renea Adrian," she replied monotonously. Kaiba's eyebrows shot up.

'It can't be.' he thought. "You're not Caleb Adrian's daughter are you?" he asked, and if he didn't know better, he'd say he sounded anxious. For the first time, Cylina seemed to lose her cool. Her eyes softened, she looked at the floor, and mumbled something that sounded like, "He was."

"What was that?"

"It's none of your business." she sounded angry. "What do you care anyway?" She stood up and started walking to the door.

"Wait!" She didn't wait. Seto had never had anyone, other than Mokuba, walk out on him and he didn't like the fact that she had the nerve to do it too. 'Who the heck does she think she is? Why the heck do I care?' he asked himself as he tried to catch up with her. He ran to the balcony and spotted her on the bottom floor about to run out the door. "She got down there fast!" He paged security, "Lock the doors." as he got into an elevator.

"All right, I'm almost out." Cylina could barely breathe as she ran for the door; she wasn't even worried about having to walk all the way back to the diner by herself in the dark, she just wanted to get away. When she got to the door, she almost collapsed in frustration. "No! It's locked!" she whispered. She heard footsteps behind her and turned around to see Kaiba. If he had run to catch up with, she couldn't tell. He was breathing normally and walking calmly.

"It was just a question." he sounded frusterated, confused, and angry at the same time; but most of it sounded like anger. "You didn't have to run."

"You're in league with them!" Cylina accused.

"In league with who? I'm in league with no one but myself!" 'How dare she even suggest it!' he thought.

"You can't fool me, Mr. Kaiba!" She started to edge over and walk backwards toward the side door.

"Are you Adrian's daughter or not!" Kaiba followed her.

'No!' she thought. The side door was locked too.

"I won't let you leave until you answer my question." Cylinalet out a long sighand looked up at him.

"I was." she mumbled.

"You were what!"Seto was getting tired of this.

"I was his daughter."

"Was? What, did he disown you?"

"No! He would never do that! How dare you even think it!" She tried to slap him, but he caught her wrist. "My father loved me!" A single tear trickled down her cheek. They stood there staring at eachother. Cylina looking up at Kaiba, tears forming in her eyes; Kaiba looking down at Cylina, holding her wrist six inches from his face. After a few seconds, he let go of her arm, wondering why he had held it so long. Cylina was still staring at him, the tears were gone now, all that was in her eyes was anger.

"Can I go now, 'Your Highness'?"

"Why did you say 'was', Miss Adrian?" Kaiba asked, ignoring her sarcasm. His eyes had softened and he seemed like he almost felt sorry for her.

She let out a long sigh and looked at the ground, "Because . . . because he's gone, along with the rest of my family. They were all killed, and I'm all alone now."

"They were killed?"

She touched the choker around her neck. "This belonged to my twin brother, Kile. He sacrifised his life, so I could escape."

"Escape from what?"

"From them." She could tell by the look on Kaiba's face, that he didn't know what she was talking about. "My father, Caleb Adrian, was the CEO of a very large company know as Shadow Games. Maybe you've heard of it?" Kaiba was silent, but intent on what she was saying. "About four months ago, my father discovered that his five associates were conspiring to steal a substancial amount of money from him. So he fired them. Needless to say, that ticked them off quite a bit. So they hired hit-men to 'take care' of us. They came at night, Mom and Dadwere just gettingback from town. Me and Kile were in the house when we heard the gun shots." The horrible memories started flooding her head again. "I really don't want to talk about it."

Cylina had expected Setoto come back with some retort about how it was her problem not his, but he didn't say anything. When she looked up and saw his face, a chill ran down her spine. He was glaring at the door behind her through his cold, almost icy blue eyes; and it seemed like he wanted to kill either it or whoever was on the other side.

"What is it?" she asked as she turned around to see who Kaiba was staring at, no one was there.

"Come with me, please." It wasn't a suggestion, it was more like an order. He turned around and started walking off.

"I answered your question, Mr. Kaiba. You have to let . . ."

He stopped walking and turned around to face her. "Do you want revenge for the lives of your family, or not?"

"Well . . . yes. But what can you do?"

"I'm Seto Kaiba," He smirked. "I can do whatever I want." He turned and started walking again.

After standing there for a few seconds, Cylina hurried to catch up with him. She had to practically jog to keep up with his long strides. He took her back to his office.

"Have a seat," he nodded to the chair she had sat in earlier as he walked to his desk. "Let me get strait to the point. About three months ago, I sent your father a very generous offer for a certain virtual reality prototype he had been working on. I wanted it to make my games more life-like. He never answered me. Now I know why. I will be willing to train you, and help you get back Shadow Games in exchange for that prototype. Do we have a deal?"

It took Cylina a few seconds to take in what Kaiba just said. "You're willing to help me?"

"For that prototype, I'm willing to do just about anything. Do we have a deal?"

"I'm not sure what prototype you're talking about, or if it's finished yet."

"I believe it's called the Virtual Simulater3000, and it allows you to feel the sensation of touch in a virtual reality."

"I never really payed much attention to what my father was working on."

"How did you expect to run your father's company if you didn't know anything about it?" He sounded shocked.

"I never expected to run Shadow Games because wasn't the next heir."

"Then who is?"

"Kile was."

"But you said he was your twin."

"He came out a minute before I did. That makes him one minute older than I am, and the next heir to Shadow Games."

"So you don't know anything about running a company." He seemed discouraged.

"I never said that, I said I didn't pay much attention to what he was working on. I saw how he ran Shadow Games, and I listened to what he taught my brother. I think I can do it with a little help."

His face brightened slightly. "So we have a deal?"

After thinking a moment, she replied, "Yes, we have a deal. And by the way, you can call me Cylina."

"And you can call me Seto, or Kaiba. I'm known by both." He smirked.

Well, that's all for now. I hope ya'll enjoyed it. If you didn't, don't be afraid to speak up. I can take constructive critizism. Please review!
