"Welcome to your new home." Dartz said, ushering Mokuba into the grand hall. Mokuba looked around he felt so small in the big room.
"This place is beautiful." He said. Dartz nodded in thanks.
"I would like you to meet two of my swordsmen." At a long table sat two men. "Rafael." A tall blonde man stood up, Mokuba was slightly frightened by him, so he sulked back a little. But the man just smiled sweetly at the freighted child. "Valon."
"Ello mate." A short man about his brother's age said. Mokuba smiled, he liked his spiked brown hair.
"And I believe that you know Miss Valentine." Mia Valentine stepped out from behind a Curtin.
"Mokuba Kaiba?"
"Mia?"
"What are you doing here? Dose your brother knew where you are?"
"NO! And I don't have a brother!" He said, she and the two men at the table looked slightly surprised.
"But your Kaiba's broda arnt ya'?" Valon said.
"No. My Brother's name is Seto, and Kaiba killed him." Mokuba said with anger in his voice.
"That's right my child." Dartz said with a smile.
"My brother died when I was 7. The person that I've lived with is a monster who dose not love me! And I want to destroy him." Rafael and Mai looked at Mokuba, slightly concerned. Valon looked at him, smiling.
"Li'lle guy has spunk." Valon said. "Reminds me of me-self."
"Indeed." Dartz said. "But first, you must prove yourself young Mokuba."
"I will do anything." Dartz smiled.
"I knew that you would." Dartz reached into his pocket and took out a little green stone. "If you are strong enough to reach this, I will help you destroy your brother." Mokuba looked at the small stone. 'Easy' he thought. As he reached for it, there was a barrier stopping him from reaching it. He snapped his hand back.
"I can't get it."
"Your not giving up that easily are you? That is what Kaiba would expect of you, is it not?" Mokuba became enraged. He reached for it again, pushing through the force that held him back. He head his brother's voice, yelling at him, calling him a looser, telling him that he would never be anything. He pushed himself further and grabbed the stone. As it lay in his hand, it glowed brilliantly in the palm in his hand.
"Well done kid." Valon said. "I knew ya' had it in ya'." Mokuba smiled.
"Gentlemen, please take Mokuba to build his new deck." Dartz said to Rafael and Valon. "Miss Valentine, please come with me." He looked down at Mokuba, he handed him a necklace in which to place the small stone. "You will be a great warrior Mokuba. But make sure that your anger doesn't could your judgment."
"I only want to destroy Seto Kaiba, nothing else." Dartz patted him on the head.
"That will be more than enough."
Téa looked over at Kaiba. He always looked so commanding, but now, he looked pathetic. His brother was missing, and now he had lost his company, the two things that made him who he was, were now gone from him. He was hunched over the lockets that he was holding in his hands. One of them was his own, the other, his brother's.
"Are you ok Kaiba?" She asked him. He snapped the lockets close to him and glared at her. "God sorry!" She rolled her eyes.
"Don't worry about him Téa, he's just pissed cause his only friend finally found out what an ass he is and left him." Tristan said. Joey laughed slightly. The pharaoh looked at Kaiba, he felt bad for him.
Kaiba could not hear the words that were being said. His only concern was the lockets in his hands. He wrapped the cord of Mokuba's necklace around his long finger. He kept wrapping it tighter and tighter until he lost feeling in it and it turned a dull purple color.
