Chapter 7

Thank you to everyone who reviewed this story. And if you haven't already noticed, this is not one of my normal sci fi or whatever stories. It has no vampires, demons, or anything of the such, just regular, living their normal lives, humans.

Jou woke up, feeling as though he had been asleep for years. Tiredly rubbing his head he stared at his surroundings, starting slightly at not finding him in his room, nor bed. "What the fuck?"

"Calm down Jou-Kun. You are in a spare bedroom at my home?" Mokuba's cheery voice answered his unasked question. Brown eyes turned to stare confusedly at him. "We brought home with us Jou."

"I am not some spare dog you pick up and take home Mokuba." Jou all but screeched. "Where is my father."

"You seem like some strange dog to me mutt." Seto cold voice floated through the room. "And as I said before. You will remember soon, just reflect on your thoughts mutt."

"I am not a mutt, nor a dog. I am human, just as you are."

"Lower that tone of voice puppy before I muzzle you." Seto couldn't' understand why riling up the blonde seemed fun, but to him, it felt as though a smile was starting to tug at the sides of his mouth.

Jou stared at him, before collecting himself and staring at his sheets, willing himself to remember whatever he had forgotten. Very soon his eyes showed a great sadness and tears started to well up in those dark honey eyes. "Please leave me alone now." Jou said quietly, wrapping his arms around his knees, curling into himself. Seto and Mokuba both nodded leaving the room. Jou couldn't hold it in any longer, he cried with all his might. "It's me now, I'm all alone." He cried out as he shoved his face into a pillow. "First mom, then Shizu, now Dad? What the hell did I do wrong to deserve this?"

(Time lapse)

Mokuba walked into his brothers room, knocking lightly on the door announcing his address. "You think we should check on Jou? He has not made a sound since we left."

Seto sighed pinching the bridge of his nose. He would never hear the end of it if he told Mokuba no. So standing, he made the trek to Jou's room, knocking on the door, and became slightly perplexed by not receiving an answer. "Must be asleep." Opening the door he stepped inside to find the bed empty. "Mutt?"

Walking around the room, he spied a motionless body sprawled out on the floor, eyes shut. "Shit!" He felt the blondes forehead, no fever? What the hell was wrong with the boy then?

"Nii-Sama?" Mokuba ran into the room, having heard his brother cuss. "Jou!"

"Call an ambulance Mokuba. Immediately!"
