(Kaiba incest, AU future) Mokuba has grown up to a healthy sixteen-year-old! But when the past comes to present, will the past win over the stone man known as Seto Kaiba? And when it seems like he's lost it, can little Mokuba help his future find it?

---Duel Academy---

He was walking down the dark halls to the stage. Duel Academy's top student was required to step up and introduce the play that they were putting on. His black hair was down by his elbows, quite well blended with his blue jacket that swept out behind him and matched his eyes. He stood there, waiting for his cue to go out there, fixing his hair and his cloths to look neat and refined.

"Now, to introduce tonights performance is the younger brother of Kaiba, Mokuba Kaiba!"

He took a deep breath and walked out there. He stood there, his eyes closed until he was ready to face the bright lights and the cheering crowd. He heard the sounds of girls squealing, boys yelling for their idol, teachers cheering on their top student, and clapping from the more refined people. Finally he took the mic and adjusted it. "Ahem. I welcome all our guests to Duel Academy! I wish that all of you will kindly enjoy this play that Duel Academy has put their hearts and souls into! I how that you all will enjoy this play! Now, without furthur ado, please, put your hands together for Duel Academy's graduating acting class! Enjoy!" He stepped out of sight and someone grabbed his arm and dragged him sideways. "Hey! hey! Hey! Easy!" He fell on Zane. "Told you so." He got up and helped Zane up.

"Great speach!" It was Jaden. Jaden was finally a Ra student and Syrus was an Obelisk. Mokuba was an Obelisk Blue and was also going to graduate earlier than most students that were in his year. Most were still at the begining stages of Obelisk and he was on a graduating level. "I think we can finally say, 'we'll put on a good show for the Kaiba brothers'!"

Mokuba started.

Syrus hit Jaden. "Don't you remember? You can't say that infront of Mokuba anymore! Seto kinda 'dis-owned' Mokuba so he's not part of Kaiba Corperation's funds! Seto just dumped him on Duel Academy's door step and walked out on him! You can't say the 'Kb' word anymore!"

"No, no, it's ok!" Mokuba put on his smile and walked out, into the dark hall and almost stepped on someone lying on the ground. "Oh! Sorr--" He stopped short as he saw that familiarblue jacket and that brown hair. He knelt down and slowly turned the body over. It was Seto... "Seto..." He brushed Seto's hair out of his face as he looked long and hard intothat soft face. "Just asleep. That's good. YOW!" Seto had grabbed Mokuba's arm and twisted it to the side. "Hey, now! I can't apologize to a sleeping person, but this is ridiculus! Lemme go!" He twisted around and slammed Seto into the wall, back first. "Lemme go! Lemme go! Lemme go!"

The door to back-stage blasted open as Zane and Jaden came out. They saw Mokuba swinging someone around. They both stared and said; "Who desided to get their death wish granted?"

"Lemme go! Wah! Lemme go! Whaddle I do! Lemme go! Please! Lemme go! Lemme go! Waah!" He accidentally knocked Mokie down with Seto, who still wasn't letting go. "Uwah! I'm sorry! Tell him to let go! It hurts!"

"Yup, I think that guys got a death wish." Jaden and Zane nodded quietly. Zane sighed and walked forward catching Mokuba's flinging arm. "Mokuba! Get a grip! Stop swinging him around so carelessly! I know you are the best at combat, but this is ridiculus!" Zane managed to pin down Mokuba's arms to his sides. "Now, you, let go of Kaiba! He didn't do anything to you on perpouse!"

"M-Mokuba!" Seto released him. "But... that's Mokuba." He pointed to Mokie, who was hiding behind a trash bin. "Or am I going crazy again? Let me guess, a magic trick again?"

"Wh-wh-wh... WHA!" Mokuba was up in Seto's face. "But you look like Seto! You can't be Seto! Seto's in his office! Probably laughing at me... AND, I don't think Seto wears that old coat anymore either! Seto's taller than you, much more talented than you, stronger than you, and doesn't have such a weak grip! You can't be my big brother! No way! No how! Not happening!" Mokuba covered his ears and screamed. "You can't be Seto! Seto abandon me here! He just dropped me from a copter and left me here! He's not coming back for me!"

Mokie stared in amazment as Mokuba fell to his knees. Seto took a half-step back and stared at the shaking boy before him in utter amazment. Mokie crawled out and dared a try at trying to get the boy to talk. "Erm, Mokuba?"

Mokuba kept weeping, hiding his face behind his knees as he crouched there with his hands over his ears. He didn't respond to Mokie's tries at trying to make him talk. "Go away."

"No!" Mokie kicked him in the shin. "Get a grip! Seto must have done that for a reason!"

"Seto wouldn't put me in danger like that! But he did! He wouldn't just abandon me like that! But he did! He made a promise when I was only fifteen that he wouldn't just abandon me in a strange place I'd never been and would feel like an alien! Seto promised..." Mokuba slowly fell forward and landed on all fours, his tears staining the ground.

"I-I... d-did that!" Seto fell back and slowly crawled away from the boy before him. He suddenly screamed and covered his own ears. "No! That's a lie! No!"

Zane stood there, his heart going out to both of them. He looked over his shoulder and through the curtains right at his own brother.

"But you are my brother! No matter the cost! I will risk my own life for the life of my brother. I shan't make you cry my name in sorrow! I shan't make you cry in my name. I will die by your hand before I have you die by my hand! I love you, brother dearest!" Syrus held his fist up to the sky. "You are my brother, my beloved brother, my only brother! You are my other half that shan't die by my hand or by the hand of another!"
