He couldn't believe his own genius, tricking Seto and getting rid of that idiot Lector at the same time. Of course, it wasn't really him that had the idea to kill Lector but still the results were the same.
Giggling insanely, Noah pulled Mokuba into his lap. "Ah, revenge is sweet, isn't it? Mokuba, you have no idea how this little game of mine will end, do you?" He stroked the young boy's cheek tenderly. "I admit, even I don't know fully… But then who does?" Mokuba gave no reply as he slept on. "How long do you plan to sleep?" The boy made an unintelligible noise and cuddled deeper into Noah, obviously searching for warmth.
There was a knock that resonated through the room, before Ra stepped out of thin air. "Where's my brother?" His face was shadowed but his eyes were cold as they blazed from behind his hood.
"He's on a little bit of a mission."
"What kind of mission?" Ra's eyes narrowed.
"An important one, now go away!"
"Where?"
"With Seto, but Ra, don't you dare go anywhere near him until my plan is over. You could ruin it, right Mokuba?" He grabbed the young boy's hair and forced him to nod. "See, Mokuba agrees with me! So stay away from Seto and your darling little brother for the time being. Don't forget your contract Ra…"
"Yes, sir." Ra said through gritted teeth.
"By the way, your brother, he had some interesting… characteristics, didn't he?"
Ra froze. "What do you mean?"
"Well, his face looked rather similar to a Mokuba's…"
"You saw his face?"
"On accident actually, he was in a bit of a hurry and his hood just sort of fell down." Ra mentally cursed at his brother's stupidity. "He has nice eyes." Noah continued absently.
"Yeah…"
"Do you have nice eyes?"
Ra understood the hidden meaning; Noah wanted to see his face, but did he really want to show the young boy? Weighing the consequences, he grabbed his hood and yanked it back.
"I actually expected something like this; your eyes are nice, by the way." Noah smirked and pet Mokuba like a cat. He scanned over Ra; same eyes as Kou, same body type as himself and similar hair as well. "So you look just like me, eh?"
"I guess I do." Ra, in turn, was looking over Noah. The only different between them was their hair and their eyes. His hair was milky white in the back and grey on the bangs instead of different shades of blue like Noah's and his eyes, like his brothers, were blue and red.
"Do you need anything else, sir?" Ra said with a slight sigh.
"No that's all you can go." Noah returned his attention to the squirming boy in his lap.
Ra turned on his heels and walked away, stopping right before he reached the wall. "By the way, sir, you do remember that you asked us to meet you in the control room, don't you?"
"Yes, I remember… Forget about it though, I won't be there. I'm too busy here." He stroked Mokuba's cheek again.
"Of course you are." Ra said sarcastically before walking through the wall.
Mokuba began to stir in his arms, "Ni-sama?" The boy murmured groggily.
"Not quite." Noah grinned evilly and changed Mokuba's position so that the raven haired teen was straddling him.
Mokuba let out another murmur, wrapping his arms around Noah's neck. He blinked his eyes opened and stared into blue eyes. "Ni-sama…" But the blue was wrong it was, it was more turquoise than blue. Not Ni-sama.
"Noah!" He squeaked, leaping off of Noah's lap, only to be tug back down by his wrist.
"Did you forget about our little problem?" Noah smiled at him.
Mokuba blushed. "No, it just slipped my mind!"
"Of course it did." Noah giggled
"Shut up!" He noticed his position and his blush deepened, "You were trying to molest me in my sleep, weren't you!"
"Maybe…" Noah whispered. He leaned into Mokuba and brushed their lips together.
"Stop it!" Mokuba's voice cracked as he put a hand between his face and Noah's, stopping the aqua haired boy's advances.
"You're much easier to deal with when you're asleep, you know." Noah said, his voice muffled by Mokuba's hand. He decided to take advantage of the placement of the boy's hand and gave Mokuba's palm a swift lick. Noah watched as Mokuba's face twisted in disgust.
"That's gross!" The boy wiped his hand on his pants and slipped of Noah's lap. "Where are we anyways?" The room they were in was different than the one he had arrived in. This one was painted a dark blue and was full of bookshelves, accompanied by soft looking chairs. Noah was currently sitting in one of those chairs, his legs crossed and his face smiling.
"This is my library."
"It's nice…"
"Thank you, I designed it myself." His arms snaked out and wrapped around Mokuba's waist, dragging him back into Noah's lap. Mokuba's butt pressed tightly against Noah as he squirmed in an attempt to get away,
"Let me go!" He struggled and writhed in Noah's lap, "Why are you always doing things like this?"
Noah paused for a moment, thinking. "I guess it's cause you're so cute!" He nuzzled his face in Mokuba's hair, inhaling the scent of vanilla and spice that was just plain Mokuba.
"I'm not cute!"
"Of course you are." He smiled and slipped his hand under Mokuba's shirt.
"No!" The boy grabbed his wrist. "Don't do that!"
"Why not?" Noah pouted.
"B-because… Just don't!" Mokuba stuttered, blushing.
"Whatever." Noah released Mokuba and shoved the boy off of him. He stood and dragged the boy over to another chair; this one in front of a large screen that Mokuba could have sworn wasn't there before.
"How about we watch a movie?" Noah gestured to the chair and Mokuba hesitantly took it. Noah dragged up a chair next to him, smiling again. "I know just what to watch." He clicked a remote that just happened to appear in his hand and the screen blink into color, revealing Seto, a frightened Mokuba clinging to his side. Mokuba's eyes widened. But that wasn't possible, he was sitting next to Noah, how could he be in two places at once? Then he noticed the false Mokuba's eyes, they had a faint outline around the pupil. Then it all made sense.
"That's Kou, isn't it?"
"Yes, I discovered that he has a use after all."
"You shouldn't use people like that…" Noah turned to face Mokuba and saw that his expression was blank.
"Hmmm…" At that moment, Mokuba looked more like Ra than Noah had ever imagined possible. The expression was the same as well as the look in his eyes.
"Why are you doing this to us?" Mokuba asked, voice emotionless.
Noah failed to answer, causing an awkward silence to settle between the two.
Mokuba sighed in defeat and crossed his arms over his chest. He settled for watching the screen with his brother walking through a forest with Kou clinging to his side. 'How could Ni-sama not notice that that isn't me!' It really made Mokuba question just how much his Ni-sama really knew bout him. His eyes followed the two as they ran towards a large mahogany door. Kou was saying something Mokuba couldn't hear and Seto nodded in agreement. They both walked through the door and the screen followed their progress.
Mokuba sucked in a breath as the scenery around the two changed, going from a forest to a overly familiar orphanage. Kou caught Mokuba's eye as he too gasped. Now he knew why Seto couldn't tell the difference between him and Kou, the young boy had copied all of Mokuba mannerisms, even down to the way he said 'Ni-sama'. The performance was flawless and even Mokuba was beginning to have difficulty telling the difference between himself and Kou.
When Seto and Kou came face to face with Gozaburo Mokuba could see Seto recoil slightly. He knew for a fact that Seto was still a little sore when it came to their step-father and these images brought back bad memories. He too had a slight problem as he watch the younger Seto and Gozaburo play chess.
Arms slipped around his waist as tears he hadn't even know where there began to fall down his cheeks. His heart broke for his brother when the scene changed to the first time the two of them had gone to their new home. Kou stood next to Seto, grabbing his hand tightly. Even though Mokuba knew it was an act, it still seemed as if Kou really felt something for Seto, maybe he did, it was hard to dislike his brother when he opened up his heart.
"Shhh, baby…" Noah said in a soothing voice. He lifted Mokuba into his lap as the young boy sobbed. A rocked back and forth slightly, rubbing Mokuba's back. The boy cried into his chest occasionally hiccupping. "There, there darling, I'm here. I'm all you need." Noah grabbed Mokuba's chin and lifted his face in order to stare into grey eyes. "You don't need Seto, I'm your brother." He stared straight into Mokuba's eyes. The boy's eyes glazed over and his mouth went slack.
"You're my brother… Noah Ni-sama…"
"That's right." He held Mokuba close once more, putting his chin on top of the now hypnotized boy's head. "I'm your only brother."
"Ni-sama…" Mokuba's eyes went blank as all emotion left him and all he was left with was the solid fact that Noah was his brother.
Joey was sailing through the air, the wind blowing him to who knew where. The ground was closing in slowly and the only thing he could see for miles were trees. As he flew by he saw a small lake and an even smaller blob next to the lake.
Joey grabbed the tip of one of the trees and stopped his fly, he held onto the tree for dear life. The branch he was holding onto snapped and he free fell down 50 ft. Landing right on top of that small blob, which he found out when he looked down, was Yugi.
"Joey?" He got off the teen and sat cross-legged next to him.
"Sup' Yug'?"
"Nothing, I'm just sitting here by the lake… Have you dueled yet?"
"Yeah, against Johnson… You?"
"Yep, Gansley! Hey, did Johnson look like a duel monster?" Yugi asked picking at a piece of grass.
"Uh huh, wasn't that weird! He looked so funny!" Joey laughed, throwing his head back.
"I know, it was like he had blue scales or whatever and he was a fish!"
"Really, mine was Judgeman!"
They sat laughing together for a while before sharing a meaningful look.
"We should get going." Yugi said lifting himself up.
"Yeah, let's go." He followed Yugi as the both walked through the forest, dodging trees on the way.
Slowly, the trees began to thin and they could see a glimmer of light through the foliage.
"Finally!" Joey exclaimed, running towards the light with Yugi close behind.
They broke through the trees and saw a huge warehouse towering above them.
"What the hell' is tha'?" Joey asked as he nudged Yugi.
"I don't know…"
"Well let's go!" He grabbed Yugi and pranced over to the warehouse. Peaking through the huge metal doors, Joey saw a whole wall filled with guns. "Thi' is so cool!" He fingered a gun, ready to grab it off it's hook before Yugi slapped his hand.
"Joey, don't touch!" Yugi looked around for another exit, finding only one on the other side of the storage facility. "Come on, we need to go." He grabbed Joey's hand and walked towards the door. "I'm sure we'll find someone else soon." He opened the door and stepped through, giggling.
TBC…
Haruka: Well, it's kind of short but at least I updated fast right? Right! Well I showed a little bit of Mokuba and Noa along with Joey and Yug'.
Lately I have discovered that recently I enjoy the strangest pairings such as Bakura/Seto and Yugi/Marik and Yami/Amelda! You have to admit that all of these pairings are extremely strange and stuff but oh well… I'll have you know though that I will keep normal pairings for this story, such as: Joey/Seto, Noa/Mokuba, Yami/Yugi, etc.
