Chapter 5

"So is it true Kaiba?" Seto sat silently. /Maybe if I ignore them long enough they'll leave me alone/ "Come on Kaiba, you know if you ignore us we're not gonna just leave you alone." Seto glared at Joey. "What do you geeks want?"

"We want to know if it's true."

"If what's true?"

"Mokuba told us your parents are alive." Seto shook his head, "Those imposters, ha! They could barely qualify to be my parents" Seto said, chuckling. "Are you saying that Mokuba lied?" Seto glared at Joey once more. "I'm saying that you should keep your nose out of my family business."

"It's always family business to you, why can't you just open up a little."

"Opening up is for the weak."

"Then what's Mokuba?" Seto clenched his hand into a fist, but kept it against the desk. "Leave my brother out of this, he is of no concern to you."

"He is of my concern! He's my best friend, but of course you have to be an about everything and ruin his life when he's finally happy. Even when he finally gets his parents back." Seto slapped Joey across the face, knocking him into a desk next to Seto's. There came a gasp, and silence filled the room as all eyes were on Seto and Joey. "Wheeler, I'm warning you. Keep my brother out of this."

"Just forget about it Joey, leave Kaiba alone." Yugi said, running to Joey's aid. Joey merely stood back up and gently pushed Yugi away. "No… I'm tired of this. I'm tired of Kaiba thinking his way is the best way, I'm tired of him always thinking of himself while his brother is in so much pain. I'm tired of Mokuba pretending his ok because of what you have done to him!" Joey pointed over to Seto.

Seto stood there, completely speechless. Had it been true? Had he really cause Mokuba all that pain? Seto then snapped out of it, as rage began to overcome his body. He stood up, "No… your wrong." He jumped across the desk and punched Joey right in the gut. "Your wrong!" Seto suddenly became totally unaware of what he was doing. Seto usually was the one to keep his anger under control when it came to fights between himself and Joey, but something had just snapped within himself causing all his rage to attack Joey.

It wasn't long before Joey was battered and bruised, lying limp on the floor with Yugi, Tristan, and Tea by his side. It wasn't long before Seto came to his senses and realized what he had just done.

-After school-

Mokuba walked happily into the Kaiba mansion, he had never felt so happy to come home before. Seto would usually be at school at this hour, and then would go to work. So Mokuba was usually all by himself in the huge mansion. He opened the door happily humming to himself, when he noticed Seto already home, at the table typing on his computer. "Nii-sama, what are you doing home so early? Aren't you suppose to be at school?"

"I got suspended."

"Suspended! How?"

"I just got into a fight with Wheeler, and beat the Mutt up harder than usual." Mokuba looked at him with a questionable look. This wasn't like his brother at all, Seto might've started fired between himself and Joey, but he never ended them; at least not with violence. "What did Joey say to make you loose your temper?" Seto stopped typing. / Leave my brother out of this, he is of no concern to you/ he rested his wrist on the table// He is of my concern! He's my best friend, but of course you have to be an about everything and ruin his life when he's finally happy. Even when he finally gets his parents back/

"Nii-sama?" Seto shook his head as he came back to reality. "Yes?"

"Are you ok?" Seto began typing again. "Fine." Mokuba eyed them, then gave up trying to find out any more information on his brother's change of behavior. "Ok then, I'm gonna go upstairs and do my homework."

"Um… Mokuba." Mokuba stopped, and turned around to face his brother again. "Yeah Nii-sama?"

"Can I work in your room while your doing your homework?" Seto asked, "Just so I can make sure you don't need any help" he added sternly. Mokuba smiled, "Sure Nii-sama." Mokuba's smile was contagious, always had been. Seto smiled as well, picking up his laptop and papers and following his younger brother to his room.

Mokuba lunged his backpack on the floor and sat at his desk as Seto went and sat Indian style on Mokuba's bed, opening back up his laptop and placing his papers beside him. "Don't hesitate to tell me if you need any help, ok?" Seto asked. Mokuba simply nodded and opened up his science book. But before they could get anything done, the door had been opened by none other than Rina. "SETO NETOSHI! I just got a call from your principal, he says you were suspended!" Seeto raised one eyebrow, "Your kidding me, right? My principal called you?"

"Darn right he did, he told me all about the commotion you cause at school, how could you beat up on such a nice young man?"

"Wheeler! Are you crazy! That mutt isn't worth anyone's time!"

"Seto Ne-"

"My name is SETO KAIBA!" Seto said, angrily getting up, shoving Rina to the side and stomping out of the room. "Nii-sama" Mokuba said, getting up immediately. "No, no" Rina said, pushing him back down in his seat, "He needs some time to cool off."

But Mokuba was the one thing Seto needed, it seemed like this so called "mother" was beginning to completely take over his life, he needed the one thing he knew he could trust in the whole entire world; his baby brother. But soon an hour had passed, and Mokuba never came. Seto felt completely abandoned, he needed his brother so bad, Mokuba was the one person who still made him human. Without Mokuba, Seto saw no reason to live. So was the one thing he feared of losing most becoming reality? Was he really losing his only family he ever knew and cared about?

Seto began to get a headache from all the stress and thoughts popping into his head, he finally got up and walked downstairs to get some painkillers. He passed by Riku who was sitting at the table reading the newspaper. "So, where's the brat?" Riku said, not even looking up from the paper. Seto turned and looked at him. "Excuse me?"

"Doesn't Mokuba always follow you?"

"Why did you just call my brother brat?"

"Why else wouldn't I? He's an annoying bastard." The blood of anger flowed through his vains like it did when he beat up Joey. "Don't you EVER say that about my brother EVER again" Seto said in a deadly voice. Just then Rina had walked in, immediately catching onto the heat of the fight. "What's going on?"

"YOU don't tell me what to do. I am YOUR father, and I can say whatever I want about him."

"This is MY house and you will follow MY rules, weather you like it or not."

"I made you who you are"

"You did nothing but abandon me and Mokuba!"

"What else was I suppose to do, I didn't even want him!" Seto took a step back. "W-What?"

"Riku, quiet. Please, I don't want Mokuba hearing-"

"You heard me! I didn't want him! Your brother was a MISTAKE, we never wanted him!" Seto was taken back, "H-How could you say that about your own son?"

"What son?" Anger had slowly disappeared and was completely taken over by shock and sorrow. Mokuba… was a mistake? How could a father even say that about his son? "I-Is this w-why you don't l-like me? I-Is this w-why you abandon m-me and Nii-sama?" Seto turned around, and there stood Mokuba, face filled with tears. Seto felt so much pity for Mokuba, he looked the saddest he'd ever looked, even sadder than when they found out their parents died. He looked so heart broken, he looked as if he was 3 years old again, with this look of total despair and abandance. Seto couldn't stand to see his brother this way, this hurt. His heart had completely been torn in 2.

"Mokuba, he didn't" Mokuba quickly turned away and ran off crying. Riku simply sat back down, taking back up his newspaper. "He was always the weaker one of you 2. He'll never have a chance in real life. Emotions are for the weak." Seto clenched his fist and slammed it on the table. "NO!" Riku and Rina both looked up at Seto. "YOUR WRONG! His emotions are the very things that make him alive, that make him human! I don't know what I do without him, without him there's no reason to live!" Seto yelled, not even waiting for their response, quickly running upstairs to Mokuba's aid. Mokuba needed Seto now more than ever, and he wasn't going to waste his time on 2 idiots who couldn't even BE real parents.

Rina stood there completely shocked, "Seto… he has matured greatly, but is still mentally a young child clinging to his baby brother."

"I see even our Seto has become weak like his brother." Riku merely mumbled, still reading the newspaper. Rina looked to the side. /Oh my dear sons, what wrath your father has bestowed upon you both. Maybe it is our time for us to leave you…/

Ha ha! Who left you in suspense! I did:p lol, anyways. So, wow, that was filled with a buttload of stuff. Was everything Riku had said true? Was Mokuba a mistake? And what become of our poor 11 year old now, when his heart has totally been split in 2? Has it come time for their parents to bid farewell, after so many years of them being thought dead?
