Lost and Found: Run Mokuba, Run!
By Juel Haruna
Previously...
"Last night I saw the kid runnin' towards the borderline between Domino and Tokyo playing tag with the gang from a, um, (cough) certain High school on 5th street."
This was definitely not good, who knows what could have happened to Mokuba, being in a danger as big as this! The gang from 5th street is one of the toughest gangs in Domino!
Yugi swiftly ran back in the direction in which he came.
"HEY! YOU OWE ME A RARE CARD!" yelled Rex as Yugi disappeared in sight.
The only thing that Yugi could do was Mokuba's only hope. He had to find Seto!
Now on to da disclaimer, Author's Notes, and show...
O . . . M . . . G! Sorry peoples, I really haven't worked on this in months have I? Well, I'm finally getting around to working on it! Just a quick reminder: I DO NOT OWN YU-GI-OH NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRY! Here we go, the long awaited next chapter! Read and Review, and don't forget to read my new stuff!
Chapter 4... "Caught"
Mokuba pressed his face against a restaurant window and gazed with wanting blue eyes at the meats, the salads, and the desserts. It has been 2 days since he had run away and he was starving by now.
"So . . . hungry . . ."
And yet, Mokuba knew that he couldn't afford to eat with the scarce amount of money he brought with him.
So he sighed and turned away, looking for a new place to sleep. Unlike Domino, most shops and buildings were already owned and filled with people. This made things much more complicated.
Mokuba sat down on an empty bench in front of a barber shop, unaware that someone was watching him.
(Sigh) "I know I miss Seto, but I can't go back. He's probably happy, hard at work for Kaiba Corp., and I can't ruin that for him!"
Meanwhile…
Kaiba had been asleep all morning. Or so we thought when he was really just lying in bed, miserable as can be. He was waiting for Mokuba to run in and hop on his bed, waking him up for the new day.
But this would not occur.
Because one; Mokuba had left him . . . all alone in his huge, empty mansion.
And two; there was a knock at his bedroom door.
"Mr. Kaiba? Are you awake?"
Seto listened to the muffled voice of his newly hired maid behind the door.
"Mr. Kaiba, you have a visitor!"
This was just perfect! Kaiba did not need any visitors right now!
"Who is it?" Kaiba asked tossing off the covers and beginning to change.
"I'm not sure, but he is a young boy. His hair is black and-"
"WHAT?" Seto began to get excited.
"Would you like me to let him in?"
"Yes! Yes! Let him in! I will be out soon!"
This was great! Had Mokuba decided to come home? Kaiba could not control his happiness!
Seto hastily put on some jeans and a black turtle neck and rushed out the door.
He almost tripped going down the stairs! As soon as he reached the bottom of the stairs and approached the entrance hall, he cried in delight-
"MOKUBA!"
"Pardon me? Kaiba, are you alright?"
Kaiba blinked and realized his mistake. When the maid was talking to him, he cut her off, because she was going to say, "I'm not sure, but he is a young boy. His hair is black and red with blond bangs."
Kaiba stared at little Yugi with a sad expression.
"Oh, it's you. What do you want?"
"Kaiba, we have to go to Tokyo! A gang chased Mokuba there and-"
"What! Oh no, Mokuba!"
Kaiba rushed out the door leaving Yugi behind him.
"Kaiba! Wait for me!"
Mokuba arose from the bench and looked around.
"This is hopeless! . . . . Maybe I should go back home. It's either that, or die of hunger."
He walked on, hoping that his big bro would take him back. Although when he turned the corner-
"Hello Little Kaiba."
A hand reached out and held a cloth over his face!
"What's going on?" Mokuba thought, "I feel . . . funny . . ."
And with that, Mokuba fainted.
"Hey mister, are you asleep?"
"Come on, wake up!"
"Hello?"
Mokuba groaned.
"Huh?"
He opened his eyes and noticed six other kids watching him.
"Where am I?" he asked a bit fazed.
One of the little girls stepped forward, "Hi! I'm Kitty, and you're at our house!"
Mokuba blinked, and a boy clearly older than him pushed his way to the front.
"What my little sister means is; you're at Tokyo's Foster Home."
Mokuba looked around him at the small room, realizing that there was not a window to be seen and the walls were as gray as cement.
He froze, "D-did you say . . . foster home?"
At that precise moment, to Mokuba's astonishment, Mrs. Tsukishiro appeared at the door.
"All right children, its bedtime so you all must return to your rooms. Our new friend needs to get ready as well!"
"Bedtime?" Mokuba thought, "How long have I been unconscious?"
The kids cleared the room (Kitty giving Mokuba a small kiss goodnight) and Tsukishiro stood lastly at the door.
"Oh no, it's the foster lady! This is bad." Mokuba held his breath in terror.
"This is your new home, so learn to like it," she said glaring at the small Kaiba brother, "There is no way to run this time. No way to run, Mokuba. . ."
Uh oh, it's the crazy lady! RUN AWAY! I hope this chap was worth while. Yeah, my chapters are short, WHO CARES! At least it's finally moving along. Thank you to all my wonderful reviewers (Even the ones who said not-nice things, yes, you're special too!). You helped me get back on track! But just so u all know, I took off that speech from my bio, so don't try looking for it. CONTEST: Whoever can tell me the name of what made Mokuba faint (first) will get to suggest the place where Kaiba finds Mokuba! YAY! Of course, it will be saved for the last chapter, and it has to be a kind of place you find in Tokyo. (Serious places please! Mokuba would not be found in a BAR or CIRCUS!) Anyway, don't forget to REVIEW!
