Chapter 4

A/N: Man, I'm really turning crappy... I don't know how to continue with my fics, and I get writer's block ALL THE TIME!!! Damn it... and I really want to write something remotely good... that will be able to satisfy you guys... but I can only write well when I'm inspired... sigh... oh well, I guess I better get started with this next installment... PLEASE REVIEW!!!

Disclaimers: I don't own Yu-gi-Oh!

To be caught by Seto Kaiba, the creepy, strict, cynical, fearsome Seto Kaiba... was FATAL. Dead fatal.

Once you got caught, you feel like your soul was sucked out of you.

That was how Serenity Wheeler felt when she got caught red-handed by our famous CEO. Boy, was she in for it now.

"You. Wheeler. Who gave you the right to look through my files?"

"Those weren't files! That was your photo album!" Serenity protested.

"There are laws implemented for the right of privacy. And you are violating it. I can sue you very well for that. But knowing that you and your brother are lowlifes, I won't sue you. If you do whatever I say."

Serenity was scared now. What would Kaiba make her do? She was in so much trouble. But what was his problem anyway? It was just a photo album. It's not like she was caught reading some really important document.

But nevertheless, out of fear of the CEO, she had to agree. "Um... o-okay." She said hesitantly, knowing that she would regret it somehow.

Kaiba smirked. "I know you would see things my way." He said coldly. "Now you are coming with me."

"MAI! I'm so freakin' out! Serenity's gone and I haven't heard from her ever since a while ago!"

"Calm down Joey. She can't have gone to a place where she knew that she would be in trouble." Mai said, deep in logical thinking. She had just come over to the Wheeler apartment once she knew that Serenity was missing.

"No, no, no... this isn't happening! Can't be happening..."

"Joey! Stop it! Act like a man, will you?" Mai said, putting her head in her hands.

"But my sister's MISSING! She didn't tell me where she went and she left no NOTE!"

"JOEY!!! SHUT UP, WILL YOU!! I CAN'T THINK STRAIGHT!" Mai shouted, getting really annoyed at Joey. He was acting like a total baby. 'Boys,' she thought exasperatedly. Sometimes guys were just TOO tiring.

After a moment, she said, "We can't tell for sure where she went because she left no messages. Why don't you try contacting Yugi and the others, ask them if they saw her around?" she said logically.

"Good thinking, Mai!" Joey said eagerly. Mai shook her head. "Joey, all you need to do is use your common sense." She said.

He picked up the phone and dialed the Mutou residence. "Yug! Have you seen Serenity anywhere?"

"Um, no, Joey. Why?"

"She's missing! She went out and didn't leave a note, and she hasn't come back till now!"

"Don't worry Joey, we'll find her. I'll call our friends and we'll meet at your house."

"Okay, thanks Yug." Joey hung up. "What did he say?" Mai asked.

"The others are coming here in about a few minutes, so they can help us find Serenity."

Mokuba was furious. How could his brother keep refusing him like that?? He had finally lost his cool back at the airport. He was glad that he was away from there right now or else he would keep remembering that ugly incident.

He and his older brother Seto never fought in their whole lives. It was only now that Mokuba lost his temper. It was going too far-his brother was already acting as if they weren't brothers. All he cared about was work. Money. He never had time for Mokuba.

He fumed, taking fast, furious breaths. He was now in his personal limousine driven by his chauffeur. "Kaiba Mansion." He said and the car moved on in a steady motion.

He sat back on the car seat and closed his eyes until he reached the confines of the mansion.

'Finally, a place where I can think.' He thought. He flopped on the couch in the living room. Several Blue-Eyes White dragon decorations were on the couch from top to bottom, covered with midnight blue velvet.

He was only resting there for a while when the phone rang. 'Geez. Must be one of his partners, calling for an important document.' Mokuba thought. Nevertheless, he had to answer it.

"Kaiba residence."

"Hey, Mokuba, it's me, Ellie. Is your brother there?"

Mokuba breathed a sigh of relief. It was just his brother's fiancée. "Um, he's not here. Can I take a message or something?"

"Um, no thanks. I just wanted to know if he's there... We were supposed to have a lunch date today. Can you remind him in case he forgets?"

"Sure." Mokuba said. "Anything else I can do for you?"

"Hmmm... nothing. That's all. Thanks Mokuba!"

"You're welcome." He said and hung up the phone. 'Great. What on earth could he be doing at that airport?' Mokuba thought.

Kaiba gave an evil smirk. He had Serenity just where he wanted her. And he couldn't help smiling to himself. 'This operation is going how I want it to go.' He said. He was always a smooth operator. He could bend anyone to do what he willed. He got it easy.

"I hope you understand," Serenity began, "That what you just did was blackmail."

"Yes I know," Kaiba shot back. "I don't need someone like you to tell me. I'm not as stupid as you think." He said coldly, enjoying every moment of his plan.

She bit back her retort. "Well, whatever you're doing," she said, "I hope it's something worthwhile."

Kaiba didn't give her another reply. Suddenly his cell phone rang urgently. He took it out and looked at who was calling him. Mokuba...

"Hello?"

"Ellie just called. She says that you guys have a lunch date. So don't forget."

His brother's voice had an icy quality to it. "Okay. Thanks." Seto Kaiba said briefly and hung up.

"And what was that about?" Serenity inquired.

"None of your business. We're going." He said. But deep in his mind, he was troubled. How was he going to meet with Ellie, and take Serenity with him at the same time? Big dilemma. Sooner or later he had to work it out.

He took a look at his watch. 11:30 A.M., which meant that there were only 30 minutes to go. It was either he cancelled his lunch date with Ellie, or he did something else.

He called Ellie's office, leaving a message saying that he was sorry that he couldn't go for business purposes. It wasn't exactly a lie; he was doing some important business. Which was getting rid of Serenity Wheeler, for good. Ellie could wait until all this was over. It was best if she didn't know what he was up to.
