Calmhorizon: Hi and welcom to the 7th chapter of Don't go.

As in the previous chapter I will ask you, my loyal reviewers, this question: Do you want Mokuba (yes, poor sweet Mokuba) to live or die? Answers in reviews please.

On with the chapter. Happy reading!

Chapter 6.2

A new perspective

He'd wanted to overthrow the company for years and now he finally could. He'd gotten exactly what he needed and now he couldn't fail.

He was full of ecstasy, that feeling that overpowers you when you know you're going to succeed- the feeling really is indescribable to all who experience its power, as he pushed the disc into the small slot and held his breath as he waited to see if it worked.

A few seconds later he let out a long, relieved sigh as he heard the computer whirring into life. He called Kai over, he too, had to witness this historic moment."Kai, come over here I've done it, we can't lose!" Kai was sitting in the corner, staring like a naughty schoolboy, at the figure laying motionless just yards from him. He seemed to be in a trance, and didn't stir when Billy called his name. It took several attempts of coaxing before he awakened. "Kai," Kai looked confused as he came back to the real world. "I've been shouting you for ages, what are you deaf?"

"Uh...oh, sorry Bill. What do you want?"

"I've found the files, come look!" now he was the schoolboy, jumping up and down on the balls of his feet.

Slowly, he got up from his spot on the floor and walked, disorientatedly to the computer, sitting down in the chair opposite the monitor. "Wow!" he exclaimed. "Let me have a look at them. I'm sure I can work out how to corrupt them." But as soon as the words left his mouth an enormous wave of guilt swept over him and he came crashing back to earth as the realization of what he was doing smacked him in the face.

Billy sat down next to him without a second thought and could hardly contain himself as he saw page after page of valuable overtaking material. "But what about the Rocking Horse? Surely he'd be next in line?"

"Not if we kill him too. Kai, we're this far away fro taking it." he said, placing his thumb and forefinger a centimetre apart. "Right, I'll start writing this down, keep it there!"

They were about half way through when Kai suddenly spotted Seto out of the corner of his eye: His eyes were lit up like Christmas trees. But why? Kai couldn't work it out. To be honest it looked quite scary; he looked like some kind of demon. But Seto wasn't a demon, was he? That's why he thought it so strange-you expect a demon to look like that so it comes as quite a shock when you see this.

Then it suddenly became obvious. He tapped Billy on the shoulder. "Billy look, I think he wants those." he said, pointing towards the floor. Billy looked down at the bag of potato chips by his feet. And he smiled a sly smile as an idea popped into his head. He turned to look at Seto, picked up the bag and strode over, heavy footfalls echoing through the ground, to the Seahorse. This should be fun, hahaha. Ok, so maybe the hahaha was a little over the top, but he didn't care.

Reaching Seto he knelt down in front of him and placed a gentle hand on his tender cheek, a fake caring look on his face, better to put him under the illusion he was going to be nice, and slowly, keeping his eyes firmly locked on Seto's, dug his hand deep into the bag and pulled out a chip.

In one swift movement he had the chip two inches from Seto's nose. His eyes were as bright as fireworks but full of false hope and Billy laughed inwardly as a dribble of saliva run down his cold-as-stone chin. You're not gonna win this time, Kaiba, he thought and plunged the chip into his mouth. It tasted foul, but he didn't care; he was finally getting revenge for what had happened to Noa. He finished the mouthful, studying the younger boy's face constantly until he couldn't stand it anymore; it was so pathetic, it had turned from bearable pathetic, to downright ugly; the kind of face that lingered long in your memory. He didn't want to look anymore. He stood up, frowning at his decrepit body-old before its time and executed a clean jerk to the back of his head, knocking him out cold.

He walked back to where Kai sat staring at the computer screen, he seemed to be day-dreaming again. A wicked smile spread across his face as he walked over to his friend and said rather too loudly "We may not have to kill him after all." That got him out of his reverie.

"Wha-what do you mean?" Kai turned to face the taller boy.

"Have you not seen the look upon his face? He seems so shrouded in self-pity that he might die of it!" Upon hearing this he immediately spun the chair around and saw what he was talking about: it was a horrible sight. He spun back just as quickly, mentally scarred by this and began to ponder about this boy. I can't just leave him like this, I-I won't let it. No one should have to go through this. I don't care what he did to Noa- the debt's repaid, we've done enough. But what will Billy say; he'll never agree to this? I must make him see it my way.

He looked up, Billy was sitting at the huge oak table scribbling madly on numerous sheets of paper. He was so committed to this, how could he ever dissuade him? Then his eyes caught something else: Seto was awake again, and staring right at him, as if trying to call out for help. He didn't want to look anymore. He turned away, and wiped the tears from his eyes. Then, regaining his composure strode, just like his friend, over to the table. "Y'know," he said, trying so hard to mask the nervousness in his voice, "I don't wanna do this anymore."

"What?" Billy rose from the table, almost knocking it over he was so enraged with anger. He started towards Kai, writhing like a snake.

"I said I don't wanna do this anymore." then he leapt up with a frightened yelp as Billy raced towards him and got him in a trachea-crushing choke hold.

"You are not giving up! You agreed that you would stop at nothing to kill the Seahorse!"

"I changed my mind!" Kai attempted to walk backwards, but stumbled and fell. Billy released him from his grip. "Billy just look at him," the pain remained in his voice. "He's half dead as it is, haven't you tortured him enough?" Billy's face changed to that of something otherworldly and suddenly Kai found himself flying backwards at an incredible rate. "Oh, I've only just started 'friend'."

He hit the wall hard, and pain shot through his spine like a bullet. "But say," Kai heard Billy's voice again, but this time, it sounded far away. But he could see him as clear as day? "perhaps you'd like to join him? Traitor." he spat into the younger one's face and stepped back; he had done his job.

"N-no." Kai answered eventually. It had taking him a while to properly understand what Billy was saying and now he was worried that his lack of haste would aggravate his temper. "I'll be good."

"Good." Billy replied, nodding his head in satisfaction, much to Kai's surprise. He seemed to return to normal in a second. Helping his friend up he announced "Now, we have to hatch-up a plan. We must move Seto in unsuspicious circumstances."

"I don't understand." Kai shook his head in confusion and carefully avoided being hurt again.

"Well we can't stay in here," if Kai's confusion was annoying him, he wasn't letting it show, "we haven't been out for days, and if we don't leave soon someone will come knocking on the door asking us if were ok, and then they'll discover Seto. You don't wanna be arrested, do you? No." he said more to himself, "we have to move him when he's alive and that means on his own two feet and that means soon."

While Billy was in full flow, Kai tuned and and, back in his reverie, took one last look at Seto. He whispered a short prayer for him, asking him for forgiveness, then turned back to face Billy and replied "Ok, what do we do now?"
