Chapter Six- Set up to Fall Down

Seto'sPOV

Seto swore furiously as the seventh number he dialed rang unanswered. He wasn't getting in touch with anyone! It was as if he were dead.

" My drones should always be on call." He flared. " They'll pay for this. Why the hell doesn't Yami keep a better eye on those weirdos? What do I pay him for?"

Yami'sPOV

Yami cancelled the last of the personal cell phone accounts via Verison Online with a click of the mouse. Honda looked at him skeptically.

" Are you sure he'll come here? It's sort of risky."

Yami shut down his computer incorrectly so that his account couldn't be traced by the phone company, then handed the list of employee profiles back to Devilin."

" I'm sure. You two go on ahead and get ready. Make sure it looks really bad. When I lure him to the airport I want every cop car in Japan waiting. That way he'll have to go where I lead, deprived of any other way.

Seto'POV

Seto dialed Yami.

" Yami!"

" Yes Sir?"

" Stay at home. I'm coming over. We have a situation down at the airport. The shipment's hanging out in the breeze for every fed to see. We have to take care of it ourselves."

" Isn't Blue on that?"

" I can't reach Blue! Or Red or Green! I swear when this is over I am going to have to do some serious…disciplining."

Croquet'sPOV

Croquet brought Mr. Kaiba's car around like the Egyptian had told him to. He smiled wickedly and counted the fresh bills in his hand.

" No matter what he says, follow starhead's orders."

Simple enough instructions. He made sure the doors locked automatically on this limo, and that this one had really black windows…

Yami'sPOV

Yami slid into the back seat of the limo as the sun set, his face sheet white. He winced as Seto touched his hand.

" What the hell is your problem?" the brunette growled. " I give you enough of it. There's no need to ration."

Yami lowered his head. " Leave me alone Kiaba. I'll follow your orders, but I'll not be forced again."

Seto drew a needle out of the pocket of his coat.

" Yes you will. I can't stand you so bitchy."

Yami swore as his master jammed the syringe into his forearm. He promised himself as the rush went to his head that it would be the last.

" To the airport." The brunette snarled, and Yami fought back his urge to weep and kill at the same time.

" Yes." He murmured. " The airport."

Only then did the car start moving.

Devilin'sPOV

Duke watched from the payphone as the Japanese police force carted away 33 boxes of the substance along with the tags that listed who was to pick it up.

Kaibacorp was all over the lid. Normally that would not have been a problem but this time there was no one there to bribe them through. Instead, Duke had bribed the police for the show.

" Good." The green-eyed man said to Honda. ' When Bossman shows up he'll think he's too late and will retreat to the safe house. That's where his " Army" and every video camera will be waiting. If, Yami dies his job and convinces him he's in danger, that is."

Honda undid the hatch of the pick-up truck they'd hi-jacked. This was where the police would really load the shipment, where it would be driven right back to one of the many distribution headquarters.

" What about Yami?" Honda asked. " Are we really going to let him walk?"

Devilin became grave. " I don't think so." He stated firmly. " The genius of this operation is that each link only knows pieces; what they need to in order to do their job. Yami knows everything, one way or another. As soon as he delivers Seto to us for his theatrical demise…"

Devilin ran a finger along his throat meaningfully. Honda shrugged.

"It's a shame. I kind of feel bad for him. He seemed nice when he wasn't strung out on smack."

Devilin bit his lip. " Yeah, well, shit happens."

Seto'sPOV

Seto cursed venomously as he and Yami exited the vehicle, then turned around and went right back in.

Cops. At least seven cars. He was busted.

" Dammit!" he mumbled. ' I should go out there and take care of this."

Yami grabbed his arm, his boldness returning.

" You're high You know they'll just arrest you no matter how many times you've paid them to shut up. It's better to handle this from afar at the safe house. I'm sure your lawyers can think of something. Worse has been suffered in the years of your fa-"

Seto gave him a withering look.

" Gozaburo." Yami finished.

Seto curled his fingers around Yami's shoulder until the flesh of it turned white and became bruised.

" You know more about my history than is healthy for you." He rasped. ' I believe I will have to restrict your archive wanderings to exclude family business."

Yami's heart raced. " Let go of me." He snapped. " Don't touch me. Ever again."

Seto smirked. The darkling demi-god was challenging him again. Serpantinly he slipped his hands underneath the Egyptian's cotton T-shirt.

" Croquet. I suggest you close the divider. I am sure you wouldn't want to hear what my partner and I are about to engage in."

Yami's expression was strange. In his delirious state Seto couldn't begin to read it.

" I'm warning you, Kaiba." He mumbled.

Seto sniggered. " You're warning me? Please. What could possibly-"

Blackness.

Yami'sPOV

Yami blinked repetitively, his left arm gripping the barrel of the shotgun. He didn't even remember reaching for it. But then wam! One knock on his head and Seto Kaiba was out for the count. For a moment the Egyptian just stared into his lap, at the torso and closed eyes of this Asian drug lord…he was so young, so innocent in sleep. His tousled hair gave the impression of a lazy teenager in desperate need of rest.

" Ahm…Yami. Where would you like me to drive you?"

Yami snapped out of his musing and met the eyes of the impatient Croquet.

He couldn't bring him to the safe house. He knew people like Devilin and Honda were as quick to break a promise as rats. They'd never help him. They'd never let him live. Besides, he thought, his muddled mind climbing to the peak of the rush.

He wanted to kill Seto himself.
