Well I know it's a little bit too early for my update but I'm 4 chapter in advance in my other story and since I just started this one I decided to update a little faster this week, don't worry there will still be an update this sunday.

Chapter two : Dead.

"I can't believe we got out without Kaiba seeing us." Joey said

"You can say that again, I was sure we were busted when he came back home earlier." Tristan added.

"Come on lets just forget about this and go eat something, I'm starving." Joey said.

All of them agreed to go eat at burger world when Joey remembered that he still had the picture in his pocket.

"Hey, what are you still doing with this?" Tristan asked when Joey took the picture in his hand.

"I forgot I still had it, and this girl really intrigues me, I mean who is she anyway?"

"If it bothers you so much then why don't you ask Kaiba?" Tea joked.

"Like this jerk would ever answer me." Joey thought about it for a while. "On second thought I definitely know another Kaiba who could easily get the answer for us."

"For you, I don't want to be involved in one of your crazy plan." Tea said.

"Are you sure you never saw her?" Joey asked for the tenth time.

"I swear Joey, I never saw this girl anywhere and Seto never mentioned her." It was Monday afternoon, true to his words Kaiba had spend all the weekend with Mokuba, which made the small boy really happy. But now the elder Kaiba had work to do so Mokuba was on his own. "Why do you care so much anyway?"

"I could use this as blackmail or something."

"Come on Joey, she was probably just a childhood friend."

"I thought Kaiba never had friends." Tristan said.

"Come on kid you have to help us finding who this girl is, don't you want to know about her?"

Mokuba closed his eyes, he shouldn't let them drag him into this mess, but then again he does was curious about that girl, his brother looked so happy with her, but what happened to her, why didn't his brother ever mentioned her? "Alright I'll do it, but only because I want to know also."

Joey grinned. "I knew we could count on you kid." Mokuba took the picture and went back home to get this over with…little did he knew that this was just the beginning.

"Seto?" Mokuba asked as he entered the mansion. "SETO!" The little boy waited for an answer but none came. "I guess he's still at work." Mokuba went to the living room and stared at the picture, thousand of question passing through his mind.

Who is this girl, how come I never heard of her, she look pretty close to Seto so why did he ever mentioned her before, where is she now?. He looks so happy with her like that, I don't think I ever saw him this happy before, is she the cause of his happiness?

Mokuba's train of thought was interrupted by the sound of the door opening; his brother was back, now was the time to find you the truth.

The little black haired kid ran to the door to greet his big brother. "Hi Seto!"

"Hi Mokuba." Kaiba answered without even glancing up.

Mokuba knew this could only mean one thing. "Had a bad day?" He had completely forgot about the picture that he had forgotten on the living room table in his rush.

Kaiba sighed and went to the kitchen to have a snack, it was way past dinner time but he wasn't hungry. "It was horrible."

"What happened?"

"Those idiots keep letting me lose my time with contract that are of no interest to me and my own employee can't even do anything right."

Mokuba just laughed and hugged his big brother, that wasn't anything new, everyday went bad at Kaiba Corp. "So, what did you do?" Kaiba asked.

"Oh, well I played with Yugi and the other for a while this after noon but other than that I didn't do anything."

Later that evening, Mokuba was playing some video game while Kaiba was just laying on the couch, watching his little brother. Suddenly Mokuba paused his game and turned toward his big brother.

"Seto? Can I get something to eat?"

"But you just ate an hour ago" The young CEO answered.

"I know but I'm hungry, please can I? Can I? Can I?" Mokuba did the one thing Kaiba could not resist; the deadly puppy dog eyes.

"Fine." Kaiba said, watching his little brother ran to the kitchen.

He turned his head back to the TV but something caught his attention, a picture on the coffee table he took it and looked at what was on it.

When Mokuba came back from the kitchen with a box full of cookies he saw that Kaiba was now up, he was still looking at the picture and for some reason he seemed really mad.

"Big brother? Are you ok?"

"Where did you found this?" Kaiba asked harshly.

Mokuba took a step back at the tone of his brother's voice, Seto never spoke that way to him before. "What's wrong big brother?"

"Tell me, where did you find that picture?" He really looked mad.

"In the attic, Tea found it when they were here last time."

"They saw this picture?" Mokuba was now worried, he had never saw his brother like that.

"…Yea. Uh Seto, I was wondering, who's the girl with you on the picture."

Kaiba then ripped the picture in two and let it fall to the ground. "It doesn't matter to you."

"But Seto, I just-"

"That's enough Mokuba, I don't want to hear of this picture or this girl ever again. Is that clear?"

"But-"

"Is that clear?" Kaiba repeated a little harsher.

Mokuba sighed. "Yes."

"Good, I'm going to work, don't stay up too late." Kaiba turned around and walked away.

Mokuba walked to the middle of the living room and took what was left of this picture before going to his room. He sighed, What in the world is wrong with him, couldn't he just told me who this girl is, why was he so mad anyway. Then an idea popped in his mind; if Seto don't want to tell me who she is then I'll just find out on my own.

The little Kaiba walked back to where he found the stairs to the attic, once there he looked in the box where Tea had found the picture. He looked through everything but he found nothing about this mysterious girl.

Mokuba looked at every single box in the attic that contained their things but he still ended up empty handed. Before he even knew, it was midnight, way passed his bedtime. If Seto found out I'm not sleeping, I'll be in trouble.

The little black haired kid slowly creep out of the attic and tiptoed back to his room unfortunately for him, when he turned the first corner he bumped into something tall. Something, or rather someone that Mokuba knew all too well.

"Care to explain why you're here?" Kaiba said as he kneeled in front of Mokuba.

"Uhh…I'm sleepwalking?" Mokuba tried.

Kaiba just laughed. "Well tried kiddo, now seriously, what are you doing here."

"Well…I was…"

Kaiba looked at where his brother came from, he saw that only one door in the always was open: the once that leaded to the attic. He sighed. "You were in the attic."

Mokuba looked down and nodded. He looked up in surprise when he felt Kaiba taking him in his arms. As Kaiba was taking is little brother back to his room spoke. "Seto? Why did you act like that when you saw the picture, why don't you want to tell me who she is."

Kaiba stayed silent, when they entered his bedroom he placed Mokuba on his bed. The little kid got under the covers and sighed, he wasn't going to get the answer that he wanted.

"I'm sorry if I reacted that way when I saw the picture."

Mokuba looked up. "Why don't you want to tell me anything?"

"Because it's like that Mokuba, why I even kept that one picture is still a mystery to me, maybe I was just hoping. If Gozaburo hadn't took it away I would have burnt it myself. Now listen Mokuba, whoever this girl is doesn't matter, truth be told, I would have preferred that you never even learn that she ever existed. Now I want you to forget that you ever saw this picture, I don't want to hear about this ever again. Understand?"

"Why? It won't change anything in my life to know who she is, what happened to her anyway?"

Kaiba was starting to be quite upset now. "Now Mokuba listen." Mokuba looked up at the sudden harshness in his brother's voice, he had upset him again. "I'm sure you saw the date on the picture, this happened before you were even born, it's my life and it doesn't concern you in any way so, it's none of your business and I don't want to hear you mention that ever again is that clear?"

"Clear as crystal." The little Kaiba answered, never in all his life had he seen his brother so angry, and it was because of him.

"Goodnight Mokuba." Kaiba said before closing the door behind him.

Even if Mokuba had promised to never brought the subject up again he couldn't help but think about it, how could one person make his brother so mad. All of this made no sense. Mokuba was awakened from his thought when the teacher called his name.

"M. Kaiba could you come to the board and do number 3?"

Of course even if it was asked as a question it was more of an order, he couldn't say no. But he had lot more important things to do then lose his time with such stupid thing as math, he just glanced at the board, he was well aware of all the glare of the others student, they all hated him because he was a genius.

"It's 573." Mokuba said, not in the mood to go to the board and do the stupid problem, in fact it has been a while that he stopped paying attention in school and he was really starting to despise it.

"M. Kaiba I asked you to do the problem and the board so stand up and do it."

Mokuba reluctantly walked up to the board, he could do all the calculus to find the answer in 5 second in his head and he didn't felt at all like writing them all so he walked to the board, took a chalk and wrote 573 on the board.

The teacher of course wasn't pleased. "And you think this is a joke?"

"No, it's the answer." Mokuba answered as if he wasn't in trouble.

"In that case M. Kaiba you'll learn to hold up your tongue in detention."

"Fine, you should do the same it wouldn't hurt you."

At that the teacher became red, Mokuba only smirked, he hated elementary school, and school in general, so for the past few months his pastime was to piss of the teachers, and he was damn good at it. The teacher was about to speak again when Mokuba cut her off again.

"Principal's office, I know the way."

8888

"Seriously Mr Kaiba, I must say that your brother is starting to worry me, ever since the last four month he stop paying attention in class, that in itself isn't really a bother because of his grades but he is becoming quite disrespectful toward all the teachers, in fact he's making it a game."

Kaiba just sat there listening to his little brother's principal, he had been call again because Mokuba was causing troubles, this had started to happen quite often and even if he didn't showed it he was starting to be worried about his little brother.

"And what did he do this time?" Kaiba asked, his voice was expressionless, he hated this principal, he had a way to think that him and Mokuba were show-off because their were genius.

"Well your brother made a pleasure to show everyone of his 'ability' it's already enough that he doesn't listen to class anymore, but he must respect the teachers and do what he's told to do."

"Whatever, didn't it ever occur to you that Mokuba is probably bored to death, he's way over the level of his class."

"I do not care, school is not a democracy, it's a dictatorship, and I'm the leader so your little spoiled brother own us respect and I hope you'll punish him just like he deserve."

Kaiba just stood and left, the old man always finished his speech the same way, punish him like he deserve. When Kaiba closed the door of the office behind him Mokuba looked up at his big brother with eyes saying 'are you mad at me?'

Knowing that the principal was listening to what he was saying Kaiba played the strict brother. "Alright kid, you're grounded for three weeks."

Mokuba looked up with surprise; his brother had never punished him before. He got up and followed him out of the school. Once they were out of the school ground Kaiba stopped and turned around with a smile. "So, care to explain yourself?"

"I hate school."

"Welcome to the club kid."

"It's just totally boring, I know all of this stuff, all the teachers and the students hate me because I'm a genius."

Kaiba sighed, he knew all too well about all of those things. "I know, how it is. Don't worry I'm not mad at you, what exactly did you told her?" He asked with a smirk

When Mokuba finished his story Kaiba was laughing. "I have to use that one, one of those days." He then looked up and saw Yugi and the other, The mutt must had detention. Mokuba turned around to see what his brother was looking at and saw his only friends, he knew his brother had work to do and he wanted to go with them.

Kaiba knew what Mokuba was thinking, as mush as he hated them he knew Mokuba needed friends, and at least he was safe with Yugi. "I'm going to work, be back before dinner." With that he turned around and was about to enter the limo when Mokuba interrupted him.

"But I thought I was grounded."

"Of course you are; for the next two week you are to stay at school from 8 to 3 except on the weekend. Have fun."
