A/N: Okay so I tried to get this out as fast as I could without making it too short but this was the best I could do. And like I said before I tried to make this one extra long to make up for the short chapter two. Besides that please read on.

-Surf

HiKari, Mokuba's Guardian – wow I checked your lookup and whoa you have written a lot of stories!! It'll take me forever to read all of them! But trust me, once I get a free minute, I'll check some of them out!

Nightmare – not quite, you'll see!

kikoken – thanks for that image there! Not a pleasant one, but funny! Yeah Mokuba is OOC, but it makes for more of a story I think.

nkitty29 – she will next chapter! Just wait!

Krissy19 – Yours was the longest review I've gotten! I was so happy to get it! (huggles) That street post thing was very funny to me because that is the type of thing I would do. Seriously. And yeah, I thought pink was a Serenity color. I personally don't like it but she seems like a pink type of person. That's a good idea for what to happen; you'll see what surf does with the chapter. It's different, but you'll like it. I sure did! I think Marik and Bakura would go crazy. I read a really good fanfic where Bakura turned into a girl temporarily, and it was hilarious! Oh and I play the flute too! I saw in your lookup! I play in the marching band too! (jumps up and down). Okay I'm gonna be quiet now and actually let you read the story. And next time, stay away from the Oreo pudding! (wink)

painsys – thanks! You're never on the guild boards anymore though! (pouts)

A/N: the notes back to reviewers were written by Mangafreak, in case anyone was wondering.

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-gi-oh, yadda yadda. But we do own the video game Seven Seas Down. I know what you're thinking, just get to the story right? Ok, here it is:

Forbidden Temptations

Video games are the answer

Serenity shifted her wait once more. The bag of hot soup that she was balancing on her leg was getting heavier by the second.

'Answer, Answer!' she thought to herself.

The driver had disagreed with Serenity about stopping at the store before they came here but she convinced him eventually. Now she wished that she had looked more in to her decision. The bag was soggy, her leg tired and it was becoming colder by the second. She looked back behind her to ask the driver if he had keys or anyway of getting in, but he and the car had gone already.

She sighed, shifted her weight yet again and the knocked, loudly. A ray of hope, Serenity could hear someone on the other side of the door. A brisk fast pace that got louder as the person neared the door, and that's when panic settled in. Serenity couldn't handle Kaiba! She could barely keep up with the tornado her brother made. This was a suicide mission but she had realized it to late. She did, she really, really did what to help Mokuba but…

The door opened and Serenity's eyes widened in fear. But what she saw was no more than a maid, a fierce looking maid at that but still better than Seto Kaiba.

Serenity attempted speech, "Uh hello there ma'am. I was looking for Mokuba?" She tried to peer over the women to see into the house but the woman moved with her. "Uh is he in?" Serenity continued.

"No!"

Serenity was shocked by the large and deep voice that came from this small woman who barely reached up to Serenity's chest. Serenity took this moment to look the woman over. She wasn't dressed like most maids. She was wearing a blue jump suit that said Kaiba corp. The only thing that made you think that this woman was the maid was the tiny black and white hat atop her head.

Then Serenity moved to her face, she looked 41. no 45, but then again the deep dark circles under her eyes may have helped. The woman looked as though she had not slept in days, which she hadn't. Her voice sounded sleep deprived as well and Serenity was instantly sympathetic for the woman. Working for the Kaibas didn't seem to be doing her much good. Actually, quite the opposite.

"I am sorry I guess I should have explained. I am Serenity Wheeler. I have come to help Mokuba." She said cheerily.

The woman looked skeptical but then stepped to the side.

Serenity held out the bag of hot tomato soup. "I brought this for Mokuba, that way he could get better!"

The woman grimaced at the bag now dripping onto the tile floor. She took the bag from an embarrassed Serenity.

"I am sure Mokuba will be so happy to... Receive this." The woman lied. "He is up in the game room, 6th floor and third door to your right." She pointed the staircase. She then

made her exit but before entering the next room she threw Serenity's soup in the garbage.

Serenity did not complain, she guessed in was a bad idea anyway. Why would someone this rich want $5.99 soup from the local super market? He wouldn't. Serenity climbed the stairs and by the sixth floor she was breathing very hard. She gritted her teeth and looked for the game room.

'Door one, door two. Door three here it is!' she moved to open it. It was locked. Serenity sighed. One last time she knocked, but this time it was more forceful. She was frustrated and cold, really cold! In fact the Kaiba mansion was freezing. She pulled her sports jacket closer around herself.

"Come in." a voice called from behind the door. It was Mokuba, Serenity could tell. His voice was riddled with snot. It would be fun to watch him try to be sarcastic with a voice like that.

"The doors locked." Serenity called back.

"No I opened it." Came back the sniffled reply.

Serenity tried the handle again and it slid open. It was Joey heaven. The walls were covered with television screens with a video game stretched across them. Piles of games leaned against the walls. It is what every kid wanted and it's what Mokuba had. Serenity swept her way through the games and made her way to Mokuba. No wonder the maid had thrown away Serenity's soup; there wasn't any place to put it. Dishes upon dishes of food where laid out in front of him. Then Serenity saw him, freezing, she could tell by his shaking body as he tried to hold the controller.

"It is way to cold in here for you! No wonder you got sick!"

"Oh so being my teacher wasn't good enough, now you have to be

my mother too?" he said sarcastically.

Serenity tried to stifle a giggle. His voice was just as funny as she thought it would be.

"No, it is just that you are shaking like a leaf! Never mind! You are so stubborn!" She slid her backpack off her back. "Okay so we start with math today."

"Must we do this? I am not feeling well at all." He said his eyes glued to the screens.

"Yes we must! You are still behind." But she could tell he wasn't listening anymore. She walked around to the other side of the room where the biggest plug was. She pulled it and the screen went blank. Mokuba screamed.

"WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!" he looked frantically around the room and finally his eyes rested on Serenity. "You!" he said through gritted teeth.

"Yes me. Now math." She said calmly. She pulled the heavy textbook out of her backpack and set it on a side table. "Page 223. We should start there; your teacher said you needed help with matrices."

"No! No, no, no, no, no, no! I don't want to!" Mokuba whined.

"Well you won't get anywhere by acting like that!" Serenity replied firmly.

"I don't want to GET anywhere!"

"Now don't act like such a baby Mokuba!" Serenity said getting out a pencil and calculator.

"No!" he said and folded his arms across his chest. He stared at the blank screen. Angry wrinkles spread across his brow.

Serenity didn't need this! A new kid, that's what she would do, she would just help someone else! No, that wouldn't work; she couldn't give up on Mokuba, no matter how

stubborn he was! She would grit her teeth and try. No what could she do.

'Think girl! Come on there has to be somethi- I got it!' she thought.

"Mokuba, do you have the game 'Seven seas down'?" she asked a small smile spreading across her face.

Mokuba looked at her, this was weird. Why was she talking about video games? His eyes softened but not by much. "Of course I do! I have every game available plus ones that haven't even come out yet!"

"Good, that's very good!" Serenity looked straight at him. "I will make you a deal. We will play video games but it has to be this one, okay?" She hoped he would agree.

Mokuba looked at her in question; maybe this young woman wasn't as dull as he thought. She had to have something up her sleeve he just didn't know what it was.

"Sure." He replied, rubbing his nose.

With that cue Serenity plugged back in the system and the room lit up with the televisions soft glow.

"Okay now we play!"


Kaiba was pacing his room in huge strides. His head was glued to the phone. He was talking to a business partner, in his mind a moron. But it was getting increasingly difficult to hear what the man was saying, Mokuba was being so loud today and Kaiba was getting angrier by the second!

"Yes, I am sorry but I will have to call you right back." Kaiba hung up the phone without waiting to hear the greedy man's reply.

He slammed the phone down on his desk and stormed to the door. How many times he had told Mokuba to keep it down, he couldn't remember right now but it had been plenty. He climbed the stairs and reached out a hand to turn the handle for Mokuba's game room door.


A/N: Okay sorry to leave you with a cliff hanger but I figure it would keep you guys reading. Next chapter is Mangafreak's and I can't wait to see where she goes with this. Oh yeah and sorry for the corniness with Mokuba and Serenity but I had to think of something. I will shut up now. R&R please!
