Seto: SKB owns nothing whatsoever.
I know, I haven't updated since January. But, if you were reading my first story, Fallen in Love, I said that I'd be taking a break from this and focused on my first story. I also just started my third story, Blvd. of Broken Dreams. Enjoy chapter 8!
When Seto entered the mansion, Mokuba was standing a few feet away from the door. Seto closed the door and took off his trench coat. Then, Mokuba ran up to him.
" So, your telling me that they are our parents?" Mokuba asked.
Seto nodded.
" How many times I must I tell you? They are," Seto said.
" Then tell me everything!" Mokuba said.
Seto and Mokuba went to the living room and sat down in two big gold chairs. Before Seto told Mokuba what happened, one maid came in. She had two cups and plates and placed them down on the coffee table next to Seto. Each plate had the Kaiba Brother's favorites on it. Once the maid left, Seto told Mokuba what happened.
Few hours later, Seto was done. Mokuba sat there, amazed.
" So, when are they moving in?" Mokuba asked.
" I don't know yet. But it'll be soon," Seto said.
" Wow. After all those years and they were still alive. How come no one told us that they were alive?"
" I really don't know. We should've been informed that they were alive. But, we were adopted a few days later."
" So, it was pretty much too late to do anything, then."
" I don't necessarily think so. It's like, having a kid and have someone adopt them without you really knowing it. We should've been able to go back to them. I need to ask our parents why we weren't able to."
" Maybe Gozaburo had something to do with that," Mokuba said as he leaned back in his chair.
" What do you mean?" Seto asked as he took a sip of his drink.
It was Coke he was drinking.
" You know he needed someone to take over the corporation once he was done. And like you said before, you are the best man for the job."
" I see."
" So, if you weren't there and Noah didn't have a body to control the corporation, then who would he give it to? Maybe the Big 5?"
" No. I don't think Gozaburo would want that to happen. He's not that stupid. The Big 5 would've destroyed the corporation once they got their hands on it. There's must be more to it."
The maid, who came in earlier, took their plates and headed back to the kitchen. Seto looked out the window and noticed it was pitch black outside.
" I think it's time for bed," Seto said as he stood up.
" Okay," Mokuba said. " But I'm not really that tired."
Then, Mokuba yawned.
" Not really that tired, huh?" Seto said as he smirked.
" Fine, fine. I am. Let's go upstairs," Mokuba said as he grabbed his brother's hand.
They both headed upstairs.
Before Seto headed to his room, Mokuba asked, "Seto, can you tuck me in tonight?"
Seto sighed and said, " Sure."
Mokuba ran to his room to get changed. Once Seto reached his room, Mokuba was already in bed.
" Jeez, your quick," Seto mumbled.
" Yeah, yeah, I know," Mokuba said.
Seto came over to the bed and looked down at his brother. Mokuba's eyes were really big and cheerful. As Seto tucked Mokuba in, Mokuba smiled.
" Thanks, Big Brother," Mokuba said.
" Good night, Mokuba," Seto said as he turned off the lights.
" Night, Seto," Mokuba said.
Seto then closed the bedroom door.
As he walked to his room, he thought, " Little brothers."
Once he was in his bedroom, he heard his cell phone ring. Seto walked over to his nightstand and picked up his cell. The caller ID said " John & Tara". Once he saw the caller ID, he instantly picked it up.
" Hello, Kaiba speaking," Seto said.
" Hi, son!" John said on the other line.
" What's up?" Seto asked.
" I called to see when it's a good time to move in with you and Mokuba," John said.
" Hm... how about two days from now?" Seto asked.
" Sounds good to me. Do you want us to bring anything with us?"
" You can if you want. But, you might not use them anymore once your living here. Everything here is updated, while yours are...well... not."
" Oh. Okay. Thanks, son," John said. " We'll sell all of our stuff then."
" Sell them on Ebay and say that I touched every single one. Trust me, you'll rake in loads of cash," Seto said.
" I found a lot of weird stuff on Ebay. For instance, there was this soda can that this one guy was selling and it was said that you threw it away a month ago. All those girls were bidding like crazy!" John said.
Seto closed his eyes.
" I guess I should warn you that there's a lot of weird people out there," Seto said.
" I know. I gotta go. I have to take pictures of everything and put them on Ebay!" John said.
" Okay. See you in two days."
" See ya son!"
John then hung up. Seto closed his cell phone. Then, he headed to the bathroom and took a very quick shower. A few minutes later, he came out with his blue satin pajamas. He then laid down on his beautiful blue bed. As he laid down, he thought about his parents.
" I still can't believe this is happening," he thought.
Then, he closed his eyes. Few minutes later, he was asleep. Around 1:30 am, his cell phone rang. Seto ignored it for a few minutes. But, it continued to ring. Seto then grabbed his phone, which took him awhile because he's half asleep, and answered the phone.
" Hello," Seto said.
" Is this Seto Kaiba?" a girl asked.
" Yeah," answered Seto.
" Like, oh my gosh! It's really you! I can't believe this!" the girl said.
" Great, another fan girl found out my cell phone number again," Seto thought.
" I'm calling to say that your so freakin' hot and I'm wondering...," the girl said.
" ... If you can be my girlfriend. That's what every girl says. I have no time for girlfriends at the moment. Now good night!" Seto said as he slammed his cell phone shut.
Then, he turned off the ringer and fell back to sleep.
4 hours later, he heard his alarm going off. His eyes flashed open. He then waved his hand over the alarm clock.(1) It turned off. He got up, rubbed his eyes, and went to his closet to get something to wear.
He mumbled, " Mornings like these make me mad. Fan girls calling me early in the morning. Jeez, do they have lives to tend to?"
His outfit was the Battle City outfit, just that he didn't put on his white trench coat yet. Seto headed to his bathroom to look in the mirror. Last time, he forgot to look in the mirror and just about everything he was wearing was backwards. Except for the trench coat, though. Seto remembered that moment.
" That was the most embarrassing time of my life," he thought as he walked out of the bathroom.
Seto headed downstairs with his briefcase in his left hand. As he reached the bottom step, the maid from yesterday handed him his usual coffee and quickly headed off to the dining room. Seto followed her. As he entered the dining room, he saw all the food was ready. The dining room table was big. It was big enough to have all the maids and butlers sit and eat. The dining room had three chandeliers in a row. The middle one was the biggest. It had the most diamonds on it. The other two were a little bit smaller. On the top of the walls was huge stain glass that showed a blue rose. The bottom part of the walls had red and gold tapestry on it.(2) Seto took a seat at the front of the big table. On his plate was eggs, bacon, and toast. Seto then placed his briefcase on the floor and began eating.
Exactly five minutes later, Seto got up and headed to the bathroom to brush his teeth. After he was done, he took his briefcase and headed out the door.
(1) I have like 2 of those clocks. It's great to listen to music with!
(2) If any of you guys out there have been to " The Breakers" ( A Rhode Island Mansion that was owned by the ever so rich, Vanderbilts), I tried to make the dining room look exactly like it. If not, go on Google and you might be able to see images of it.
Nothing really exciting, I have to admit. And, if I described what the mansion looked like, well, I'm changing it now. Around May, I went to Rhode Island and saw a gorgeous mansion called "the Breakers." I decided to have it look exactly like that. So, it'll look EXACTLY like it. And also, I'm going to fast forward to the day that the parents move in. Well, I hope you enjoy this chapter and please read & review!
