"Daddy! Daddy! look what i found daddy!" A small child, 4, came running into the room like a whirlwind.
"What is it darling?" The reply came from a handsome young man, only 23 with long dark hair and deep emerald green eyes.
As she reached him, she locked his gaze. Those beautifully angelic eyes looked up at him, full of wonder and merriment. She pushed her delicate hands forward and opened then gently. Inside them was a splendid crimson butterfly, carefully spreading its wings.
"Sara its beautiful..." Duke leant down and lifted the young girl from her feet and set her on his lap.
"What can i do with it daddy?" The dark-haired infant smiled up at her father as he hugged her tight.
"well, you will have to set it free, angel, so it can fly about with the other butterflies" Duke's soft voice soothed Sara's disapointment at having to relinquish her new pet.
He saw a flash of the smile he loved so much, and then she was gone, out the door and into the gardens.
"I suppose I should get ready for the dinner tonight..." He got up slowly and made his way to his bedroom.
Lying on his bed was a small pscrap of paper, he read the words hastily written on the surface. 'You better not be late Duke, you know what happens if you are...you miss the part where we pick on the midget!'
A smirk on his face, Duke tossed the note into the fire and casually changed into his usual outfit; a black sleeveless top and tight black trousers.
His thoughts drifted. "I wonder where little Conner is..."
Conner was Sara's twin brother. They were identical, apart from the obvious. They both shared their fathers dark hair, but Conner had his mothers mischeivous blue eyes, whereas Sara received the glinting emerald of her Duke's.
Their mother, had passed away years ago. During childbirth, heart heart had failed. The grief tormented Duke, he still loved her dearly. Her saw her in Conner, and it pained him to see that. But he had to remain strong for them, they were his life, his soul, everything.
He wiped his eyes fiercly, angry at himself for the tears that fell so often. Pulling himself together, he quietly made his way to Conner's bedroom. He knocked at the door, and let himself in. Conner was playing in the corner o the room ith a miniature set of Dungeon Dice Monsters. His father had made them especially for hm.
"Hello Daddy" His little boy grinned up at him. That smile set off the ache in his heart that Duke tried so hard to control. "Hey little Dude...whatcha doin' in here all by yourself? why not go play with your sister...you know she loves spending time with you" Duke sat cross-legged by his son.
"I like playing with the Dice Monsters daddy, and Sara is always in the garden...she likes the flowers" Conner scrunched up his little nose and poked out his tongue. Duke laughed and ruffled Conner's hair. "I'm sure she would want to play if you asked her...she likes the games too"
"Okay daddy, I will!" And with that Conner leapt up and ran out of the room to find his sister.
Duke smiled and thought lovingl of the chlds tremendous qualities. He even had a cute little lisp, which, adorabe as it was, Duke hoped he would grow out of. He knew it was bad enough already that he was the son of one of the richest people in town. Children can be so cruel at this age, despite the innocent exterior.
Soon they were bundling out the door and driving down the narrow roads t othe reunion at the kaiba mansion. He knew he wasn't supposed to bring the kids, but he couln't bear leaving them again. Non of the others had ever met his children, or their mother. They didn't even know that they existed.
Duke sighed.
