Hello! Yes, a new chapter for all of you readers! I thank you for being so patient with me, and I owe you all a huge thank you! Well, why don't we answer reviews so I can get this story written and go watch anime.
ShibiChicken: Yes, if you noticed, I got permission from Edie to use Lonu. And I've seen your reviews to Kaiba's Slave too! If it wasn't for Edie, I might never get my chapters up! :)
Enjie Yekcam: Oh! Ehem. I don't think I made that clear. Takaya is 16. I thought it was obvious. Pre-teens don't often have jobs, and she called Mokuba "Little one" and held him in her arms as she would a little brother or something. I doubt someone his age would do that. Hope that's all clear now!
LazerWulf: And Kentucky to you too.
Amme Moto: See Enjie's answer.
MidnightBallad: Hey! That's my line!
Sakurelle: No! Anything but the Dragons! My Pineapples are NOT dragon-proof! But anyway, here's your new chapter!

"Your room miss."
Takaya nodded up at the guard and stepped through the door, hearing it shut and give a soft click behind her. Locked in. She sighed, realizing she was not all that welcome in her new home.
Then looking at the room around her, she gave a slight gasp. This wasn't a room, it was a palace! Or it was big anyway. The only bedrooms she had ever seen were small cramped ones, with several beds pushed along the walls. This room was twice as large as those rooms, and there was a large bed along the farther wall. The wall across from the door held a large window, showing the western hills of Domino. The floors were hardwood, and the walls were a soft white.
Feeling rather dizzy being in such a large room, Takaya stumbled over to the bed and threw herself backwards on to it. Instead of bouncing off the surface, it seemed to swallow her whole. Being smothered in the sheets, she struggled to break free of the mattress, but failed dismally.
-.-.-.-.-
Seto stood outside Takaya's door, listening to hear if she was doing anything. Nothing. Stepping inside without knocking, he looked around. "Taka-chan," he said, expressing 'chan' rather rudely. He heard muffled talking from the bed, but when he looked, he saw nothing. Then he saw the sheets kick up a little bit. Then the corner of a white indoor shoe. Blinking, he walked over and moved the sheets a little. Now he saw a hand, grasping for something to hold onto. Amazed that the bed was that soft, he grabbed the hand and pulled.
Takaya came out of the bed, her hair everywhere, and gasping for breath. When set on her feet, she held onto the bedpost tightly. "This bed is waaay too soft, said Goldilocks," she said, trying to smile while moving to fix her hair.
Still blinking, Kaiba just watched her. Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, he reminded himself why he came to her room in the first place. "Ahem," he said, clearing his voice, a little embarrassed. "You will join me for dinner now..."
Takaya shrugged and finished fixing her hair, having been able to tie it in a knot at the back of her head. As she made to follow Kaiba he shook his head. "An attendant will show you down shortly." And as he left, he made a mental note to have the mattress switched out…

I'm sorry this is so short guys, but this will hopefully hold you over until the next chapter! :) Oh, and by the way, Kaiba calls her -chan as an insult not out of affection. ;P
