Ok I'm back again, my pig dissection is reported to tuesday, so now is time to update and answer review. but before anything else, a lot of people seem to be thinking that the story is over, where did you got that Idea, I'm currently weriting the chapter 17 and there will be chapter 18 also and maybe a chapter 19 so no the story is not over yet.
Darkblinds: I can tell you really hate meyli, but unfortunately for you she will not die, as for getting the guy arrested well 100K is spare change for Kaiba and gangs can be really dangerous, especially when you owe them money so it's way less trouble to pay them.
Shelby: As you can see no it wasn't the last chapter and this one isn't either, I will say it when the story will be over, I just can't get where you got that idea. Now as for the scare, I did mentioned somewhere in the story, while Kaiba was away I think, that a knife had been her only friend for most of her life, adding to the fact that she was abused I think now you should be able to understand. (hint, she'd been cutting herself)
AnimeFreakslayer: running away
Cherry-star-aus: Yea cheezy I know, but all story are cheezy at least one time don't you think, like when two peole are about to kiss and someone just comme arounf the corner or a phone ring.
Thanks to all my sweet reviewers, you know what? I finally reached 100 reviews in one chapter, that was like my dream of fanfiction, to put at least one story good enough to get that much revieew, this is just making me want to write even more. I love you all.Chapter sixteen: Explanation.
When Kaiba arrived at the mansion he silently wished that his brother was sleeping but he knew it was a waste of time, the probably waited all night for him to come home. He entered his little brother's door without knocking, it was a waste of time anyway, the kid was too hypnotised by his videogame to notice him.
Mokuba was playing currently playing super smash bros melee on his game cube (I don't owe either one.) he was giving pikachu the beating of a life time, which showed that the little kid had recovered from his shock and was in a really bad mood, not a good sign for the older.
"You know you have school today don't you? Or should I saw this morning" Kaiba asked.
Mokuba gave pikachu one last blow that sent him fly high in the air and never coming back before closing the tv and turning toward his brother. "So do you."
Kaiba sighed and sat on his little brother's bed, Mokuba went sitting beside him. "Why didn't you tell me anything?" The little Kaiba asked.
"Because I didn't wanted you to get hurt."
"Because you think I'm not hurt right now?"
"No, and I'm terribly sorry about it, but how did you wanted me to tell you you had a sister and she hates you?"
"Why does she hates me like that anyway?" Mokuba asked.
"I think that's a question you should ask her."
"She said you only cared about me because you lost a game, what did she mean?"
Kaiba sighed, he didn't really wanted Mokuba to know about that. "Well, she was my mother also"
"So you hated me?"
"No, I never hated you, I was just forcing myself not to care about you, I could never hate you, but back them I didn't want to care about you. I wanted to believe it was your fault, that way there was a face behind all my pain."
"But why do you care now?"
"Meyli told you, I lost a game. As soon as I saw those big eyes of you I just realised how mom's death affected you and how I wasn't helping, I saw in you eyes how much you missed her, even if you had never saw her."

Meyli held out her hand, there was a coin in it. "Head or tail, loser takes care of him."
"Fine."
Meyli threw the coin in the air. "Head." Seto called.
The coin fell on the floor. "Tail, you lose." Meyli said.
"Can't we do a two out of three?" Seto complained.
"No way, you lost now go."
"You'll pay me that one day." Seto said as he walked up the stairs
Seto opened the door of his father's room and walked up to the little bed, in it was a two months old Mokuba crying his eyes out. He slowly took his little brother out of the bed and held him as far away as possible. Mokuba stopped crying and opened to big puffy eyes to look at what was holding him. He held out two tiny arms with his eyes still full of unshed tears.
"Don't you even count on it." Seto said.
Understanding that his brother wasn't going to held him closer Mokuba slowly started to cry again.
"Fine I'll do it, just stop crying." Seto said as he took Mokuba in the baby style and sat on a chair with him. Mokuba looked up at him with the cutest look in the world and had a small smile on his face. "Don't get any idea, I don't care about you, I was just going nut with all your crying, why were you crying anyway?"
Mokuba kept looking at him with that content look on his face, clutching to his shirt like a teddy bear. Seto sighed. "It's not like you were going to tell me anyway. So, now that you aren't crying anymore I don't have any reason to stay here." Seto said as he moved to put the baby back in his bed. Sensing he was going to be left all alone again Mokuba started to cry again.
Seto looked at his crying little brother after putting him in the bed, he had asked his father not that long ago why Mokuba was always crying when he was alone, his father had answered it was because he missed his mother, he didn't believed it, how could he miss her, he was the one who killed her and he had never even saw her before.
"Is it true? Do you really miss her that much?"
Mokuba stopped crying when he heard the voice and held out his arm to be picked up again. "Why should I take care of you? I lost my mom because of you." Seto snapped, Mokuba lowered his arms and started to cry softly again. "But then again she was your mother also, are you really able to understand she's not here, that she's missing? Even if you never saw her?"
Seto looked at his still crying brother. "I really miss her you know, she was really nice, but you, you never ever got a chance to see her and you'll never have it, I can't imagine how hard it will be for you, to know that if you weren't there, mom would still be here. Just look at you, it's not your fault, there's no way you could have wanted her to die, you're just like me, a little kid who just lost and miss his mother."
Seto took Mokuba in his arm again, the little kid blinked a few time in surprise before snuggling in his big brother's arm. Seto was surprised but he like the feeling of responsibility, this blind trust his little brother was putting in him, he was so vulnerable…and cute. "You know, you look a lot like mom." Seto glanced at the clock and saw it was 7. "You must be hungry aren't you?" Seto put him down on his father's bed and went to get him something to eat. While he was gone, Mokuba turned himself on his stomach with a lot of effort and tried to follow him, it wasn't that much effective but he was slowly nearing the end of the bed, of course our sweet little baby had no idea that falling off a bed would be painful so he didn't really paid attention to it until it was too late.
"Where do you think you're going like that?" Seto asked, catching Mokuba just before he hit the floor. Mokuba only laughed and hugged his big brother, not even realising he could have killed himself. "Here, you need to eat now." Mokuba said as he gave him his baby bottle.

"What happened after that?" Mokuba asked.
"Well after that, I care about you more and more everyday. The bad side is that Meyli never did and we started to fight."
"Did you ever regret it…that you were the one who lost the game?" Mokuba asked, looking down.
"Never, losing to Meyli is by far the best thing that ever happened to me, you know how much I hate loosing but that's the game I'm glad I lost. I would never change that day for anything."
"You really mean it?" Mokuba asked, looking at his big brother with big puppy eyes.
"Of course I do, you're the most important thing in my life, you do know that right?" Kaiba said, hugging Mokuba really tight. Mokuba nodded. "Good, now lets get some sleep, we both really need it."
"Seto? Can you stay with me?" Mokuba asked, already half asleep.
"Ok, go to sleep now."
Mokuba snuggled closer to his brother and felt asleep almost instantly, Kaiba followed not long after.

When Mokuba woke up it was already night, he looked to his side and saw his brother well awake looking at the ceiling. "Since when are you up?" The little Kaiba asked.
Kaiba was snapped out of his thought by his name, he looked to his side and saw his little brother looking up at him. "About an hour."
"Why didn't you get out of bed?"
"Well, you are kind of using me as a pillow and I didn't have the heart to wake you up."
Mokuba realised he was sleeping with his head on his brother's shoulder. "Sorry."
"It's no problem really kid." Kaiba said. "Come on, let's go eat something and after we can go see Meyli."
"But she hates me, why would she want to see me?"
"She almost got killed to protect you, you think she would have done it if she didn't care about you?"
"But…What if…"
"There's no what if, trust me on this, she really is sorry for hitting you, you know."
"She is?" The little Kaiba asked.
Kaiba nodded.

"Seto?" Mokuba asked as they were walking toward the hospital.
"What is it?"
"Why can't I remember her? She's my sister but I can't remember ever having one, why is that?"
Kaiba sighed. "Because I made you forget."
"Why?"
"Meyli totally refused to come to the orphanage because our uncle didn't want you and she didn't want you to ruin her life even more." Mokuba looked down. "I know that look and you are better to stop thinking that way, none of this is your fault." Mokuba nodded but he wasn't convinced. "She never cared about you back then but you did and after she left you were making yourself sick with guilt, you always were an intelligent child and you knew why Meyli hated you. You wouldn't stop thinking it was your fault and that you did something wrong."
"After about three months I realised I had to do something about it, you really were hurting yourself. So I decided to make you forget everything, each time you asked me about anything that had to do with her I asked you who you were talking about, I kept telling you it was probably a dream you did because I never knew anyone named that way and we never had a sister. After a little while you started to believe me and as time passed you forgot about her just like we always forget our dreams."
"You really did that?" Mokuba asked, disbelievingly.
"I know it may sound harsh Mokuba but back then she had never cared about you, you were making yourself sick over someone who never cared and would never come back. You may don't remember how you were back then but I do, you weren't eating anymore, you weren't sleeping, all you were doing was sitting by a window and looking outside to see if she was coming back, you barely even spoke to me anymore. I understood that you missed her, I missed her also, I really wanted her to accept you but I knew she wasn't coming back and I couldn't let you continue that way."
"I suppose that was the best thing to do, but why didn't you told me when she came back?"
"Because you were happy now and Meyli hated you more than ever, she is my sister, she always had and she always will be, she needed help and I couldn't just throw her away. But you were always my first priority and you'll always be and now that you were happy I didn't want you to get hurt."
"But she was supposed to stay for a while, would you have told me one day?"
"Yes, but only when she would have realised it wasn't your fault."
"But now what?" Kaiba gave him a questioning look. "You said that if she ever hurt me she would go back with our uncle so what will it be?"
"I know one thing for sure, whatever happen she is not going back with that man. The rest is up to you, you are my priority and what makes you happy is what I want."
"I'd really like her to stay, I'd really like it to have a big sister but…"
"You don't want one that hates you." Kaiba finished for him. Mokuba looked down he hated hating people. "There's nothing wrong to it Mokuba. Now listen, we're going to see her, we'll see about that later, I just want you to keep in mind that if she don't stay with us I'll make sure she is someplace nice and she'll be fine, I don't want you to feel bad about it."

Kaiba entered the room alone, he wanted to talk with Meyli a little before letting Mokuba, she also just woke up 10 minutes ago and he assumed she would want to know what's going on. "How are you feeling?"
Meyli looked up at him in surprise; of all people of earth he was the last person she was expecting to come to see her. "Like crap." She said.
"Well that's not really surprising considering you got shot." Kaiba said, sitting in the chair next to her.
Meyli hesitated before asking the question that was on her mind. "And Mokuba?" she asked hesitantly, she feared the worst.
"A few scratches, but he's fine. You know you could have gotten yourself killed to save Mokuba."
"Maybe you would have wanted me to let him get killed." She snapped, she hated to be wrong and she knew she had been wrong all along about Mokuba, she didn't need her older brother to point it out.
"Of course not, you're both fine and that's what's important to me. I just want to know why, you could have just ran away, why didn't you?" Kaiba asked.
Meyli looked away and closed her eyes. "I…I just couldn't. When I first came to ask you help I was sure you had gotten rid of him, but you didn't. No matter how harsh I was to him he was always nice to me, you really did a good job raising him, he really remind me a lot of mom, I guess that's another reason why I hated him. I guess now I just…care for him"
Of course Kaiba had noticed that she said hated, even if she didn't seem to realise it. "I had a talk with a friend and she told me I should give him a chance, before I wouldn't had done it but the kid had already got to me, even if I didn't wanted to admit it, things just grew from there, I didn't meant to hurt him."
Kaiba looked at her and smirked. "Since when do you have friends?" He asked sarcastically.
When Meyli turned around to glare at him she saw that smirk. "Why you!" She said playfully as she tried to throw him his pillow, however the process caused her immense pain to her wound, forcing a painful moan out of her and causing her to clutch her wounded stomach.
"Are you ok?" Kaiba said as he came to her side as soon as he saw her pain. "Take it easy." He said as he helped her to lay back down. "Are you feeling alright or do you want us to come back tomorrow?"
Meyli looked up at him. "Who's us?"
"I came here with Mokuba, he's waiting outside, I wanted to make sure you weren't going to hurt him any more than you already have before letting him in."
"Can I see him?" She asked.
Kaiba nodded and walked out of the room to get Mokuba.
Important notice: ok, as we all know summer is comming, however before summer the horrible exam week must come. I unfortunately happen to have an exam week so from the 13 to the 20 I may not be updating because I have a lot to study.
