Chapter Four: Bolidaman Inc.
Thanks for all of your reviews everybody! I just hope that I can keep on updating. But to thank some of you reviewers:
Emily10: Thanks, and I'll read your stories once I get the chance, I promise. And I've heard of Seto/Serenity in the Manga, but the thing is that I've read so many places that they don't get together in the Manga, could you send me some proof that they do?
Cheetor X: Thanks for your reviews, and Kisara is the BEWD girl that Kaiba is holding during the flashbacks during his duel with Isis. She appears in the Manga, but I'm not quite sure whether or not she appears in the Anime. I think Priest Seto and Kisara have a thing for each other, but I'm not quite sure of that either.
Kikoken: Awwww, thanks for your really nice reviews.
Moonliteangel527: Thanks-wait, I'll thank you the next time I see you, cuz.
Ice14: Thanks!
$*$*$*$*$*Serenity's Office$*$*$*$*$*
"Serenity, do you think my brother is a bad guy?" Mokuba asked out of the blue one Tuesday morning.
"Huh?" Serenity asked back as she looked up from her work at the computer. "Could you please repeat the question, Mokuba?"
"Do you think my brother's a bad guy just like the rest of your friends do?"
"My friends don't think that your brother's a bad guy."
"Yeah, they do."
Serenity shook her head. "Mokuba, they simply misunderstand your brother. Your brother was a nice guy, and he had a hard life. My friends and I just try to kill the cruelty inside of him and bring back the good kid that he once was."
Mokuba thought for a second, "Did you think about my brother any differently after that whole Big Five win-a-duel-steal-a-body incident?"
Serenity thought for a second, "I learned not to criticize him so quickly, after all, if I had that kind of life I would surely be a little grouchy too, and I think we all saw somebody in a new light after the Big Five incident." Serenity explained, thinking of Tristan. (AN: Remember, this is a SetoxSerenity fic!)
Mokuba was about to ask who she saw in a different way, but then the clock struck twelve.
"I'll be right back, Mokuba, I have to get your brother his coffee."
"He needs it....." Mokuba answered remembering how his brother got no sleep last night.
"Did your brother get any sleep last night?" Serenity asked remembering how Kaiba was typing, emailing, and ordering documents and parts frantically yesterday, plus he was in like seven meetings too.
"He might've, but I don't know since he didn't come home last night. The driver had to take me home
alone."
"Your brother must be really tired." Serenity said with a sigh just thinking about how hard he worked.
"Nah, he usually has days like that. I once saw him stay up for a whole week-I thought he had insomnia or
something. Isn't that cool?"
"Mokuba," Serenity explained, "There's nothing 'cool' about not getting any sleep. Your brother must
have been miserable."
"Maybe, just make him some of that lemon flavored stuff, and he'll be alright." Mokuba said.
Serenity left with a sigh thinking about how Mokuba could be so clueless to how his brother must feel about
no sleep: Surely he didn't think it was 'cool'.
$*$*$*$*$*$*$*$*$*$*
While Serenity was getting his brother's coffee, Mokuba decided to see what Serenity was busy working on.
He opened up the program she was working on and saw that she was typing the elder Kaiba's schedule.
"Seto's day is never simple." Mokuba said as he read the packed day his brother had in store for tomorrow.
"Let's see, three meetings, a business luncheon, and another meeting to discuss plans with Bolidaman Inc."
What was Bolidaman Inc? It was the best computer part seller in all of Japan. Kaiba would never buy the
parts he needed for an invention from any other company. This is the place Bill Gates would go to get his
computer fixed.
Bolidaman Inc. and KaibaCorp and a very strong affiliation.
"I wonder which old geezer Bolidaman Inc. will send over as a representative this time." said Mokuba.
It was true, Bolidaman Inc. had a variety of representatives. Each one's character was as hilarious and
ridiculous as any member of the Big Five's.
They were little and rude, stuck-up and deceiving, and very cynical towards others.
Mokuba scanned through his brother's schedule, and came to a stop when he saw who the representative
was.
The representative: Bolidaman Inc.'s very own CEO.
"No way!" Mokuba screamed as he ran into his brother's room.
$*$*$*$*$*Kaiba's Office$*$*$*$*$*
Kaiba was groggily typing away at his laptop. Dark circles under his eyes were evident a mile away.
Disheveled hair was an obvious sign of sleep deprivation. Weak eyelids struggled to keep open.
You would've been quite daring to mess with him in his current state: He was very petulant to say the least.
But the daring Mokuba had a bone to pick with his brother.
Mokuba slammed open the door and went straight to his brother's desk.
"Why is the CEO of Bolidaman Inc. coming?" he angrily asked.
Kaiba looked up to see a fuming eleven year old boy with raven black hair. His eyes were locked on Kaiba,
an obvious sign that he was serious.
"What do you have against the CEO of Bolidaman Inc., Mokuba?"
Kaiba was quite amused, despite his current lack of rest state, at the concept of Mokuba being angry.
Mokuba was the one who was always telling Kaiba to be nicer to others.
"But why is she coming? She usually always sends representatives."
"Mokuba, were you looking at my schedule again?"
"That's not the point. What are you going to do at your meeting anyway?"
"I'm not going to answer back to an eleven year old."
"Seto!!!....."
"Mokuba, leave, I have work to do." Kaiba ordered as he held back a yawn.
Mokuba knew he'd never win against his brother, but maybe Calista Bolidaman coming to KaibaCorp
wasn't such a bad idea.
Mokuba shook that thought out of his head.
'Calista Bolidaman is a walking Barbie Doll: She's too much competition for Serenity.' he thought.
$*$*$*$*$*Serenity's Office$*$*$*$*$*
Mokuba left the office only to be greeted by Serenity holding a silver tray with an exquisite silver teapot, a
beautiful, matching silver cup, a box of sugar, a bowl with an already sliced up lemon tucked inside, and a
lovely Jacqueline-styled spoon.
"What's all that for?"
"I think your brother will need more than the usual amount of coffee this time." Serenity explained as she
easily pushed her boss's door open with her back and carried the tray into his room.
$*$*$*$*$*Kaiba's Office$*$*$*$*$*
Serenity was greeted by a sight seldom seen by any living thing.
Seto Kaiba lay with his back slumped on the chair, a pencil still in his hand, his laptop still on, fast asleep.
"Wow..." Serenity breathed.
She put the tray down on a nearby table.
She walked over to his desk, saved the documents he was working on, and gently closed the laptop.
She stood back for a moment, and she watched him.
"This is a true Kodak moment." she admitted to herself.
The great Seto Kaiba, who towered over the common people, enjoyed lowering other's self-confidence,
found joy in plain torture, was drifting off in a world of slumber with the soft subtlety of a lamb.
$*$*$*$*$*Serenity's Office$*$*$*$*$*
Serenity entered her office with a question on where to find a blanket in her head.
She raced out the door in search of one.
"What was all that for?" Mokuba asked as he watched her run.
$*$*$*$*$*Kaiba's Office$*$*$*$*$*
Mokuba wanted to see what made Serenity race out of his brother's office so quickly.
And when he saw the dragon fast asleep, a question entered his mind.
"Where can I find a marker?"
Mokuba wanted to be like that Jiggly Puff on Pokemon who drew on people's faces when they were asleep.
So of course Mokuba started a search, rummaging through his brother's desk drawers to find a black,
permanent marker.
"Voila!" he said as he found one in the very bottom drawer.
Too bad he never got to draw on his brother's face....
As soon as Mokuba had the marker tip just an inch above his quiescent brother's face, he heard Serenity
enter her office.
Thinking quickly, he hid behind a curtain as Serenity came in with something neatly folded in her hands.
"What is that?" Mokuba asked himself.
Serenity came up to Kaiba, unfolded the throw, and avidly put it on him-almost as if waking Kaiba would
lead to a great punishment, so he had to be handled with care.
Serenity stepped back, and exhaled a sigh of satisfaction and relief when the throw was finally placed on
Kaiba.
As she was leaving the room, she noticed the phone plug still in.
She yanked it out.
"Mr. Kaiba will not be taking any calls today." she giggled to herself as she swung the wire in her hand.
She left the room with a good feeling embedded in her heart.
Mokuba stepped out from his post behind the curtain.
After seeing that, he wondered if the CEO of Bolidaman Inc. was really any competition for Serenity at
all......
