Chapter 4-II-
Death
Deep depths in the pool of despair
High fires in the void of hell
Piercing ice swallows thy whole
Impassive eyes glare
Bitter warmth clutches thy hand
Pulling ever so far
So far…

'This job is so boring.' I thought tiredly, letting a yawn escape my mouth.
It was one in the morning and my dear boss would not let me leave, I think he enjoys torturing me. In the first few hours that I had come here, my entire day's work was complete, filing, typing, answering calls, it was child's play really.
Letting my lashes flutter over my violet eyes, I thought it would be safe to take a catnap for a few minutes, it wasn't like he called on me, his lowly life assistant, he made that phrase quite clear to me. My head gently fell onto my hands, releasing another small yawn, I quickly let sleep engulf me.
"Ms. Sachiko, I believe sleeping won't get anything done."
I immediately shot my head up, staring up at the towering Seto Kaiba, who looked down at me.
"Well, Mr. Kaiba," stressing his name with a smirk. "Some of us are not machines who can survive without sleep. I need my rest to keep my beauty at high peaks," I added arrogantly, flipping my hair back over my shoulder. "Though who knows how you keep it up."
"Are you suggesting I'm good looking Ms. Sachiko?" He asked, taking a seat at the corner of my desk, haughtiness bathing every word pouring out of his mouth.
"And if I am?" I asked with a challenging tone and a brow up.
"Then I'll have to take care of you," he said swiftly, turning away his black Armani suit blending with the dusk of the night.
"Not if I take care of you first."
Licking my cerise tongue run over my thin lips, my hand instantly travelled seductively down my leg, my nails traced the pointed vertex of the blade, which lay in a secret compartment, strapped to my ankle.
'Dear Mr. Kaiba, I'm coming.'
Inaudibly, I leisurely let the smooth brass of the doorknob turn in my hand, I had turned off the lights in the hallway so no glow entered the room. Letting a slender leg in first, I made sure not even the click of my heels was heard.
Underneath the large window of his desk, I saw the leather chair and the radiance of the computer monitor, yet I perceived no movements.
My confidence neared it peak as I neared the his chair; against my chest rested the small dagger- it was only a few inches long nonetheless will be able to rip through the icy flesh of Seto Kaiba, leaving nothing my a trail of scarlet blood from the corpse.
Stopping behind the chair, I paused, waiting. Putting a leg underneath the chair, with a swift flick of my ankle the chair tunred to reveal nothing.
"What are you doing here?"
Damn.
His voice boomed in the dark and vacant room, his hand had grabbed my from behind, pulling me aligned to the lean, muscular tone of his body. Kaiba's eyes glowered at me, his lips in a thin purse across his face.
"Coffee?" I replied with a grin, putting a cup and saucer between the little space amid us.
He let go of my waist and snatched the mug out of my hand and presumed his work. I remained for a moment, but thinking it was useless, I let the cool feel the blade within my pocket comfort me. I left the room.
First attempt: Failed.
-II-
His black shoes slicked against the freshly mopped tiles of Domino High, echoing and bouncing through the empty halls, other then that, nothing but silence. Pure silence. No giddy fan girls stalking him, no jealous boyfriends trying to beat him and especially no dog and crew to invite him to join them.
Alone.
Just the way he liked it.

Hastily, grabbing her Math textbook as she rushed out of Calculus, after finishing her work early the teacher had excused her out of class.
Catching a few dirty stares from the kids still trying to solve their equations, she gave them a conceitedlook and ran out of class.
While walking down the lemony scented hallways, she kept her face down, looking through her black side bag, attempting to organize her belongings. After a few frustrating minutes Rei had gathered all the loose papers and her science textbook into her left hands, as herright hand rummaged around.
With her face in her bag and her mind concentrated on tidying up, she failed to hear the steady footsteps pacing through the hallway.
Kaiba, nose in a book walked, unable to perceive the noises of aggravation coming form the young lady in front of him.
Papers, books and notebooks flew into the air scattering every which way, neither even trying clean the mess, nope, they were much too busy glaring at each other, sending each other hushed curses and hexes.
Thinking of the worthless time that were spending just gawking at each other, Rei slowly bent down and made a pile of her possessions. Kaiba, sighing heatedly, bent down beside her and did the same.
Rei reached over, in front of Kaiba was a blue, hardcover book her fingertips moved over the smooth texture of the book. Kaiba looked her for a moment, watching her hand caress his novel, his hand moved towards her, resting it over hers.
Violet met sapphire.
Bit by bit, his pale hand travelled up the pink cloth of her uniform, she gazed over to him with complete mystification, it hid her desires quite well. Her breathes came in trembling pants, trying to control herself, her hand began to shake.
"What's wrong, I won't bite…hard," the words rolled over his tongue, his eyes never broke contact with hers.
Rei watched as his hand travel further up her arm, grasping it just before he reached her shoulder. He pulled her into his body, her hand lay upon his chest, giving her enough support to keep her balance, she let her body feel every beat of his heart.
Both his hands grabbed her shoulders pulling Rei up to his face, his tantalizing fingers ran up her swanlike neck as she quivered.
Kaiba ran his index finger over her luscious lips, she parted them slightly, smirking at him. Slowly he began to lean in, inching closer and closer, till the space between them was filled with nothing but their bodies pining for each other.
The hand that lay upon Kaiba's chest rose up, slowly, letting it run through the channels of his body, up his neck and to his lips she lay a solitary finger, as if to tell him to hush. He stopped advancing to her and looked mysteriously into her sensual eyes. Rei leaned in and kissed her finger upon his lips, gently, sexily, moving away to catch his expression. He opened is eyes, the dazed look of a dream upon his face.
Picking up her pile of books she left him, confused yet very much interested.

Rei picked up the light crimson gloss and ran it over her lips, turning her head from one side to the other she made sure her black eyeliner was neatly proportioned. She had taken the curling iron and ran it through her hair, resulting in a light wave; she smoothed down the scarlet sweater she had bought the other day over her black fitted dress pants, which flared out at the end.
Zipping up her black stiletto boots she grabbed her black jacket and waited for Duke to pick her up.
'This jealousy thing better work, or I just wasted an entire night with the merry saps for nothing.' She thought, resting her head in her hand.
Looking up from her seat on the couch, she turned off the TV and answered the knock at the door.
"Mistletoe." Greeted a cheery voice.
Snatching her by the waist, Duke let her fit together with his body. Obviously she was caught off guard, but once she looked up and saw the green leaves and specks of white snow, she couldn't help but let out a whole-hearted laugh. That and the fact that there was a ridiculous Santa hat covering his long raven hair.
His black jacket was left open, revealing a silky emerald dress shirt, perfectly matching his eyes. She let her hand run up the velvety cloth, till she reached his cheek.
Oddly, a sincere smile sparked upon her face as he leaned in a gently lay her lips upon his cheek.
"Hope you're satisfied 'cause we're late," she quickly said, winking as she grabbing the arm of his jacket and pulling him out the apartment building.
"Well for now…that is," He murmured to himself slyly glancing at the raven beauty that pulled at him.

"Wow Rei, I love what you did with your hair," Tea gleefully acknowledged her.
Rei nodded as she watched her and Yugi dance to the fast R&B song they had put on.
"Nice top," she complimented, hoping that she hadn't heard her.
"Thanks!"
It was nice to hope.
She smiled again at the couple in front of her, they were just so…cute? Sounds like a fairy-tale-ish but hey, this is Tea. She had on a white, netted top with plain blue jeans, her chestnut brown hair swayed through the wind as her Santa hat bobbed every which way.
She looked over to her left and found that goofy kid Joey with his girlfriend Mai, she as trying to get him to dance but it looked like he wasn't going to budge for a while. Beside them was his little sister Serenity with his best friend Tristan, who kept his hand on her waist while her brother was being thrashed by her girlfriend.
"Hey lookie, it's Kaiba," Joey yelled, using his ploy get avert Mai' attention. "What brings ya to a place where people are having fun?"
Sometimes Joey just pushed too many buttons.
"Oops, my bad. He has a computer, for a second there I thought you were tryin' to loosen up, but naw, it's you," Joey beamed, slapping him on the back as if there were old friends.
"Wheeler, get that god forsaken hand off me. Who knows where a mutt like you could've been," he retorted, seizing his hand and throwing it off. He grasped his laptop and left the gymnasium.
"Joey, why do you always have to pick on him? He wasn't even doing anything to you," Yugi complained.
"Just leave it Yugi, Joey and Kaiba have more in common then in differences," Tea laughed.
"Tea…never again," Joey replied, his hand waving in the air, signalling a 'no' sign.
"Rei?"
She looked over to him.
"How about a dance?"
Duke? Hesitant around the ladies, well it happens to the best of us…well not Kaiba.
Rei smiled slightly, mentally laughing at how nervous he would get around her, it was like grade three when you would push a girl into the mud and she would cry but then you'd offer her a towel to clean off with when your friends weren't looking.
She accepted; he took her hand his and pulled her gently against his body.
Something, she felt something; as their bodies moved to the slow beat of the song, she felt something inside. Suddenly, a coy feeling took her over. She rested her head upon his shoulder, wrapping her arms a bit tighter around his neck.
As the song ended, she timidly pulled away, looking down to hide the blush on her cheeks. But of course, Duke had regained his debonair composure. Letting his hand slip around his waist, he tugged at her, causing her to face him.
"Is he really going for it?" Mai asked, looking over the crowds of people.
"It's Duke," Joey replied, sipping on his punch.
"But he just met her!" Tea exclaimed.
"Jealous much?" Tristan teased, pushing her slightly with his elbow.
His lips neared hers; although he was the most eligible man, second to Kaiba, this kiss- it wouldn't be his first, hell no. But it would mean something, something more then those nights of sitting with girls whose parents had left them on the sofa to make-out. No, this would definitely be different.
Rei opened her eyes, watching in a time consuming way as Duke approached her. She felt so compelled, but she knew she couldn't. Kaiba would never want someone who was with one of his business rivals. He might come off as a conceited guy, but he had principals.
"Duke…?"
He exposed his jade eyes and gazed at her confusedly.
"We just met and…"
"No need, we'll take our time," he replied, slight disappointed but nonetheless felt ecstatic. He pushed her raven hair behind her ear.
"I'll be back," she quickly said, drawing away and running out of the gym.

"Hey," she greeted, closing the door behind her as she entered the dark Science Lab.
"What are you doing here? This is my hideout."
"From what? Life?"
"From the tons of women who throw themselves at me," he retorted smoothly, attempting to make her envious.
"Ah yes, the bimbos," she rejoined, smirking as she sat down beside him.
"What are you doing here?"
"I was just wandering, and ended up here," Rei replied, looking over his shoulder at his work.
"You came with Duke?" He asked, not gazing away from his monitor.
Rei smirked, he had noticed her. "Jealous?"
There was no response, he just continued to stare into his computer.
"He likes me a lot," she said, leaning against the table and staring up at the ceiling.
"I can't imagine why," he smirked.
"I think the same for those bimbos, but then I just remember they want to grasp whatever they can," she retorted.
"Touché," he replied, he stopped typing and looked her at, he was beginning to like this girl's attitude.
"I'm beginning to think you like my company," Rei grinned.
"And if I am?" Kaiba questioned, raising a brow.
"Then you might not want to fall in love with me," she said smirking, as she turned towards him. "'Cause I'm a real heart-breaker."
"I can assure you that won't happen," Kaiba guaranteed with much confidence.
"We will see Mr. Kaiba, we well see," she smiled.
"Very sure of yourself, aren't you Ms. Sachiko?" Kaiba asked, leaning in a bit.
"Well you have to be in my sort of profession," she answered, flipping her hair back and moving in.
"Profession?"
"Dealer of death Seto," stressing his first name.
"I see, the sultry yet seductive Rei Sachiko hands poor saps their demise?" Kaiba laughed.
"Glad you think I'm seductive," she said, rolling the last word off her tongue, as she moved over Kaiba, her finger travelling his jade shirt. Letting her fingertips flow over his collar, opening a few buttons in the process.
"Well I still don't know what you think of me," Kaiba asked, slithering his hand around her waist.
"Superficial."
Her cheek brushed against his.
"Slick."
His hand pulled her onto his lap.
"Sexy."
His lips ran over hers, she pushed them closer not being able to stand the heat between them. There lips moved over each other, each one fighting for dominance; for the first time Kaiba let down his guard, letting her take control, which suited Rei just fine.
