Chapter 5

Thank you to everyone who reviewed. And I am sorry to say, but I am in extreme need of a beta, anyone willing, e-mail me if you are, pretty please? On with the story.

Kaiba growled as he was so rudely awakened by a crude slap in the face. "What the fuck!" He looked to his side and saw the blonde sleeping next to him tossing and turning, face screwed up in pain, and maoning, tears collecting in the boy's eyes. "Hey kid, you ok?" He said, watching the blonde toss and turn in pain. "Kid?"

Jou's eyes shot open, more tears leaking from them, and all he could do was scream. It hurt so bad, he didn't know what to do, this was the worst it ever was. He clutched and clawed at his head, trying to free himself from the torture.

Seto had no idea what was going on, he couldn't understand why Jou was screaming out in pain from his head, not his shoulder. "Jou?" He asked, reaching to touch the boy, sending the blonde flailing and running out of the door. "JOU!" Seto stood and took chase, ready to find out at all costs what was the matter. He found the boy a few minutes later dipping his head into a stream. "Jou!" He screamed, grabbing the boy's shirt and yanking his head out of the water. "What the hell do you think you are doing?"

"Trying to escape." Jou answered staring at the ground. "Trying to escape the pain."

"What pain, what is happening?!" Seto was thoroughly confused by this point.

"N-nothing." Jou slapped Seto's hands away. "Nothing at all." He shook his head slightly, coming to his senses. Looking up at the sky he saw the sun starting to rise. "We best be on our way." He stood and started walking towards a half-way beaten path.

"Excuse me?" Seto stood, following after him. "You just make a scene and you say it's nothing?"

"Do you want to see your brother or not?!" Jou said, turning and glaring at the brunette. "If so, just shut up and follow me!" Jou picked up his pace again, keeping his back turned to the silent, yet fuming Kaiba Seto the rest of the way to his home.

"Onii-chan!" A little black whir rushed past Jou and tackled the other boy to the ground. "You're OK!!! YOU'RE ALL RIGHT!!! You're... Skinny as fuck, what happened to you?"

"I'm fine Mokuba, I just haven't... Did you just say fuck?" Seto looked his little brother, stunned beyond belief.

"Uum, no, I-I don't think so..." Mokuba stared at the ground, red tinting his cheeks. "I missed you!!!" Mokuba screamed, glomping his brother again. Jou sighed and turned away from them. He had to check on his father.

Kaiba looked u0p and watched the blonde walk away. "Mokuba, we should leave now, we need to go home."

"Can Jou come with us, please?"

"Mokuba, we can't take a stranger home like some stray dog in need of care, he lives.."

"He needs help big brother, a lot of it, there is something really wrong with him." Mokuba said, worry shining in his eyes.

"Mokuba, what are you talking about?" Kaiba sighed, irritated and just wanting to get his brother home safe.

"Please Seto? I will explain later, but please, can he come home with us? Please?"
