Noa's POV

Victory is addictive. I see my opponent, my step-brother, my replacement. How I loathe him! He knows that I have won. The hollow look in his eyes sends a rush of power through my veins. Is this how he felt all the time? Crushing his enemies, destroying those who got in his way. Now the roles are reversed.

He destroyed my hope and took my rightful place as heir to Kaiba Corp. More importantly, he became my father's son, the bearer of his name. That was worse. Gozaburo Kaiba was a harsh man, true, but that didn't stop me from want his approval, his love. When I beat Seto at his own game maybe I'll get it back. Are you watching Father? Are you proud? Am I finally the son you always wanted?

The great Seto Kaiba. Once so strong, so proud, so powerful. Now kneeling on the ground like a weak child.

I even took your precious little brother from you, Seto. How does it feel to be alone? You're a fool to think you can get him back. Go on, tell your sob story. Bare your soul; it won't work. Mokuba is mine.

Your little band of cheerleaders, those foolish individuals unfortunate enough to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, are starting to grate on my nerves. Why do they persist on encouraging you? From what I've seen they have every reason to hate you. Soon they'll share your fate.

What, wait, Mokuba is slipping from my control. You seem to be getting through to him somehow. This can't be happening! I curse myself for letting my mind wander for a moment. Now he is lost to me. I attempt to get him back but my efforts prove useless. No matter. I'll soon take care of you both. I have the perfect plan. I'll make you pay.

Hate and rage rush through me. I feel strength and adrenaline course through me like a drug. I can't stop laughing; I feel drunk with power. I see your face and hear the anguished cries and I know that I have won. Ah, revenge is sweet indeed.

A/N: The next (and last) chapter will be on Gozaburo. Thank you Growing Pain for reviewing!
