Chapter 3. Who are you?
"Hello?" said Piper slightly nervously down the phone,
"Hello? You're not Seto, who are you? What are you doing with his cell phone?" a young boy practically yelled into his phone.
"My name's Piper, we… me sisters and I found your brother unconscious in…" she looked around for a street name, "… the main street that leads out of Domino." She said urgently.
"Oh my God! Is he okay?"the boy stuttered.
"He's fine. Okay. Tell me who you are."
"I'm Mokuba Kaiba, Seto's brother."
"How old are you?"
"Thirteen."
"Okay Mokuba, can you arrange to have a car or something pick us up? He's breathing but he's still out cold."
"Yeah." He covered the mouthpiece with his hand and yelled to someone. He removed his hand and spoke again;
"Okay. Please stay with him. I'll be five minutes tops." He said, and hung up. Piper pressed the 'hang-up' button, put the phone back in his pocket and stood up. It was no more than a few seconds before he started to come around.
KAIBA'S POV…
I could hear concerned voices all around me. What happened? I must have collapsed. I mentally groaned at the thought. I tried to move, but found I couldn't. The voices – female voices, were growing clearer, and gradually I was able to open my eyes. My vision was at first very blurred and daytime hallucinations were drifting aimlessly in front of me. I could see three women, two standing, I think, and one kneeling. As my sight became clearer, I could see that it was night time and the street was still deserted. SHIT! Those men! I sat bolt upright. I looked at the three women. All three looked American or western, and all three were short, only about 5ft 1, but one might have been 5ft 3. They all looked to be in their thirties, and all had dark brown hair and brown eyes. Sisters. When they saw my, their eyes widened – one gasped, one gawped and the other tried to look normal as quickly as possible. The one that had been the least surprised, with long straight hair, was standing with her hands together in front of her in a strong stance, said quietly;
"How are you feeling?"
"Who are you?" I said,
"I'm Piper Halliwell, and these are my sisters, Paige and Phoebe." She said calmly, "You're Seto Kaiba, right?"
"I am." I said coolly,
"Are you alright now?"
"Why, should I not be?" damn. Stupid answer.
"Well, you were attacked by demons and blacked out." Said the kneeling one, getting to her feet.
"Demons?" I said quizzically. If they were going to try to preach about some religious or supernatural nonsense, I was having none of it.
"Er… Yeah." Said the one called Paige, "You know, live in the Underworld, try to kill witches?"
"Are you insane?" I said impatiently,
"Surprisingly no. D'you know why you were attacked?"
"An attempted assassination, no more." I said absently,
"Demons don't assassinate rich people, they kill good witches and whitelighters." Said the one called Phoebe.
"You really have lost it!" I snapped, "If you're trying to shove this magic rubbish down my throat, you have another thing coming if you think that I'll believe you!" I got up and picked up my briefcase, and was about to walk off, when one of them called to me. Great.
"Hey, you can't just walk off after being out cold for God knows how long!" said Phoebe,
"I can." I replied, not even looking back at them.
"Your brother called." Said Piper. That made my turn around. "He said he'd bring something to take you home. And we are expecting him in… 3…2…1…now." Just as she finished speaking, I heard the familiar engine of my limo, coming down the street. How the hell did she know that?
"If Ishizu Ishtar sent you," I said, "then tell her that the next time she comes near me with the intention of talking about her magic bullshit, I will sue her within an inch of her life!" They all looked taken aback… fantastic. I love being me. Mokuba jumped out of the limo and ran up to me,
"Big brother!" he yelled, "Big brother, are you okay? What happened? I lent down to hug him. "God, I was so worried!"
"You don't have to worry about me Mokuba." I said,
"Obviously I do, Seto, the proof is on my cell phone." He said, he broke away and looked at the three women.
"Thanks so much for telling me. Who are you again?" he said brightly.
"I'm Piper," said Piper, "Paige," she pointed at Paige, "and Phoebe." And pointed at Phobe.
"I'm Mokuba." He said, and they took it turn to shake his hand. "I gotta go." He said, "Thanks again!" he said, and waved to them. Why did he have to be so trusting? I got into the limo and shut the door. Leaving the sisters in the street, watching us drive away from them.
I dunno if I'm making Kaiba too nice, please tell me lol!
