1Ch 16: Torture Chamber:

Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh. Except Amber, Ambers friends; Alexia, Wren, and Cecilie, Kaiba's friends; Jack, Steve, and Matthew, Deborah, Ritchie, and the story.

Kaiba and Amber went through their regular classes as if nothing happened during the past weekend. Jack, Steve, and Matthew kept throwing malicious glances and evil smirks like they knew something that Kaiba didn't. Amber's friends didn't help matters either. Alexia and Wren kept throwing glances between Kaiba and Amber and Cecilie was seething at Amber, and as usual, Kaiba. Kaiba and Amber pretended not to noticed but couldn't help but wonder how long they could keep this up. So at lunch Jack came up with the most universally used question a teenager can ask.

"So Seto, what did you do this weekend?"

Kaiba nearly choked on his sandwich. He couldn't say I was making out with the mutt, Amber all weekend.

"I was working." Kaiba lied.

"Really?" Steve inquired.

"Yeah. What's it to you guys?"

"Matthew ignored that and asked, "So you didn't go out to dinner at Hot Burger on Saturday with a girl at 7:15 precisely?"

'Oh Shit,' Kaiba thought. "Yeah but how do you know it wasn't Mokuba, remember he has long hair."

"It wasn't Mokuba, stupid, the person you were with had brown hair not black." Steve said.

"Maybe I let Mokuba dye his hair."

"Hey stupid remember my mom," Matthew said. "She has black hair and she couldn't dye it, duh."

"Damn," Kaiba said to himself. "Okay you got me. I was with a girl. So you idiots were spying on me?"

"I knew it! Hey we're not idiots. So spill so go you have a girlfriend or was it Jem in all her various disguises? Or was it the mutt?" Jack said

"Which mutt moron? Remember he has two of them, Wheeler and...Adachi. Oh my god it's Amber, isn't it?" Matthew asked.

"Yeah I was with Amber and yes we are a couple. And you know I wasn't gonna tell you guys until I lost my virginity to her." Kaiba said mock seriousness. The three boys looked like proud parents.

"Oh. Our little baby is growing up is growing. Mattie, Stevie, our little Settie is finally trying a long term relationship till he gets married or someone kills him witch is inevitable."

"Do you even know what 'inevitable' means you idiot?" Kaiba asked.

"Uh, eventually?" Jack said stupidly.

"No, moron it means predictable." The boys laughed at Jack.

"Shut up morons."

Amber's Table

"So, Amber. What did you do this weekend?" Wren asked politely. Amber sighed. She had to tell them, but how was the question.

"I have to tell you something. Remember when you asked about my scars? Well, I haven't been completely honest with you. I got dem from my uncle. Kaiba found out about dem and I'm living with him, and we're a couple now."

The girl's mouths dropped open with shock.

"You and Kaiba..." Wren said.

"Are a..." Alexia said.

"Couple?" Cecilia asked.

"Yea."

"What!" The girls screamed.

"OMG. No you didn't. You said you weren't in love with Seto Kaiba." Alexia said.

"Well, now I guess I am." Amber went silent. The girls were also silent for a minute then smiled at each other and jumped on Amber.

"Alright! Amber's got a boyfriend, Amber's got a boyfriend!"

"Get off me!" Amber yelled pushing them."

The bell rang and they went off to their classes. Kaiba and Amber met at the doors and started talking.

"So, did you tell your friends about... us?" Kaiba asked.

"Yeah, you?" Amber told him.

"Yeah. I guess I'll see you at detention."

"See ya."

Kaiba walked down the hall and ran into Amber's friends. Cecilie came over to him and stood before him.

"What do you want Lopez?"

"I...we came to tell you that if you hurt Amber in anyway." She slapped him. "That's gonna be harder, and it's gonna be from all of us. Get it?"

"Got it." Kaiba said rubbing his face.

"Now go to class Kaiba. Have fun." Kaiba walked past Cecilie to get to his next class.

After Detention

Kaiba decided to walk home with Amber. It was a clear night and the moon was full. The stars were shining. Amber broke the silence.

"So how are you?"

"Fine, you?"

But she didn't finish her question since she was caught off guard by a hand wrapping around her mouth. Kaiba looked over at her but then two pairs of hands hit him over the head. And all was dark.

Somewhere Around the Pier

Kaiba woke up a little woozy, his head hurt and he had a suspicion that this was only the tip of the iceberg. He looked over and saw Amber hanging unconscious. He tried to move toward her but the chains were too tight so he tried focusing his remaining strength to kick her. His legs were the only things unbound from the wall. He got her leg and she woke up she looked around and saw Kaiba.

"What are we doing here Seto?"

"I don't know Amber."

Then a door opened and Kaiba saw a man and a women walk in. The woman was skinny had brown eyes and familiar white hair that covered her face. The man was heavy set and didn't look sober. Amber whimpered when she saw the man look at her. Then Kaiba realized that it was her uncle. The woman walked over to Kaiba and smirked in his face.

"Hello Kaiba-boy." She said.

"Who are you?"

"Don't you know who I am?"

"Well, if I knew that would I be asking you?" Then he got slugged in the face.

"I wouldn't be insolent if I was you Seto Kaiba. You have too much to lose, my friend, like you baby brother." She said.

"Don't you dare hurt Mokuba, if you do I'll..."

"You'll do what, you're chained to the wall and I'm out here."

Kaiba was silent.

"I see you're not in the mood for a debate, so now I'll tell you why you're here." She said turning her back to Kaiba.

"I need you to help me Seto Kaiba. I need your corporation and your millennium item."

"How do you know about that?"

"I know many things, like what's your favorite color to what your greatest fear is."

"So, what is my greatest fear you son of a bitch?" Kaiba challenged her. She walked over to him and whispered in his ear,

"That you are going to lose you baby brother, like you did your mother and father, and I know something else, I know who was in that car when your father was hit."

Kaiba was breathing heavily, "W...Who?"

"One of my fathers goons."

"And who is your father?" Kaiba was as close to tears as he could get.

"Maximillion Pegasus...and I am his daughter, Deborah Pegasus." Kaiba's breath caught in his throat. When he finally got his voice back he said,

"And why did you need Amber?"

"Oh we need her just to see you suffer. And when we get little Mokuba we'll kill him first just to see you cry. And when I get your corporation I'll will ultimate power."

"So, you think it's that easy. Killing both Kaiba's?" Kaiba asked incredulously

"I think it's a wonderful idea. Don't you Ritchie?" She called over her shoulder to Amber's uncle.

"Yes, it is Deborah."

"Uncle Ritchie, why did you do that? Why am I here?" Amber said finally finding her voice.

"To put you in your place, finally." He lifted the bar and swung at her head but his drunken body hit her stomach and her insides flared with pain as she felt a few of her ribs break. Kaiba didn't move and inch as he hit her. Deborah groaned angrily, she was sure that that would get him to start to plead for her to stop and he would give up Kaiba Corporation. She called to her goons; one of them was Kemo. He smiled as he swung the bar at Kaiba, but he didn't scream. Blood flew out of his mouth and he felt his shirt tear open. He started to pant as he felt his body sag. Deborah laughed as she saw Kaiba breathe heavily, but Kaiba could see she wasn't satisfied.

He spit blood on her shoes and she glared at him.

She looked at Kaiba and said, "Well, you are going to be more difficult to break aren't you? Well, then I'll just take matters into my own hands." She took the bar from Kemo and started to hack at Kaiba's body. Kaiba didn't start to scream or cry or plead for her to stop, he endured worse when Gozoburo beat him, this was just stage one to him. She groaned and stopped hitting him. She threw the bar at him and it hit his chest leaving a huge bruise and couple of broken ribs. She went over to him and whispered in his ear,

"If I can't break your body, then I'll break your sprit. I may have your girlfriend but I can also acquire the most important person in your life." She turned to leave. Kaiba took a second to find out what she meant and then started to mutter to himself.

"No...Mokuba." Kaiba said, strained.

"Simple minded fool. I think you'll find that fighting isn't the only was to inflict damage upon an opponent, a man's spirit is broken in much easier ways."

"No...don't you dare hurt...my little brother. If you do...I'll hunt you down and kill you...myself." Kaiba promised.

"I'd like to see you try." Deborah challenged him, and for once Kaiba didn't have a smart-ass remark. Deborah laughed an evil laugh as she left the room to go to the Kaiba mansion to get the only Kaiba heir that she knew of. Although she had left only a few minutes ago, her laugh echoed in Kaiba's ears as if she was right next to him. And that minute something that everybody thought Seto Kaiba was unable to do, he did...

Seto Kaiba started to cry...

Mokuba shot up in his bed panting...knowing something had happened to his brother...

Cliffhanger!

So, I need advise from ya'll. I have ideas for two stories for Yugioh so pleaze rate each one with a 1-10 pleaze. I'll be eternally grateful.

Princess and the Peasant: SerenityxKaiba: Romance: AU: PG-13:

Serenity, a princess of England, is being forced to marry Duke, a prince from France. Serenity doesn't want to; but what choice does she have. Only one: to run away. Serenity, disguised as a servant maid, lives in the poorer part of town and befriends Seto, an orphaned peasant farmer. When she is discovered, she tries to hide her feelings towards Seto. Will love blossom? Or will Serenity be forced to marry someone she doesn't love?

Betrayal: Tragedy/Romance: PG-13: AU:

Millennia, one of the pharaoh's priestesses and sister to the High Priest Seth, is probably one of the luckiest women in all of Egypt. Most women didn't know how to read and write, she could do both, and she was also a sorceress. Her life was perfect, until the day she had to betray the only one who loved her.

So, again, pleaze, rate theses stories 1-10. 10 being the highest and 1 being the lowest.

Thanks.
