Chapter 3
"WHAT!" the officers grabbed his arm, but Seto hit him off. "What on earth are you talking about?"
"Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law."(A/N: 1st officer is Jeff and the other is Rob)
"You can't take me away, I didn't kill Yugi! And I most certainly didn't kill Tea." Both Jeff and Rob twisted him around and shoved him against the wall as they handcuffed him. But Seto wasn't going without a fight. Jeff and Rob struggled to keep him still, "Mr. Kaiba, please stay calm. We're just gonna bring you back to the station."
"NO! Mokuba needs me, I'm not going with you! I'm gonna leave him, I didn't do it!" Seto slammed the back of his head against Jeff's face. Jeff let out a yell and let go of Seto. Rob grabbed him and hit him across the back of his head. Seto fell to the ground. Rob slipped out his gun and pointed it down at Seto, "Move and I'll shoot. Go quietly and no one will get hurt." Mokuba could only watch in horror as they put the last cuff on his brother's wrist.
"What should we do with the kid?" Jeff asked. "You take him Jeff, I'll bring this criminal down to the station." Jeff merely nodded and walked over to Mokuba. "Don't worry kid, everything's gonna be just fine…" Mokuba shook his head and ran over to his brother. He was already on the edge of tears. "You're not going to take my brother without a fight" Seto swished his leg against Rob's and caused him to trip and fall to the ground. Seto, using his upper body, swiftly pushed himself back up to his feet. Jeff reached into his pocket for his gun, but Seto quickly kicked him before he could do so.
Rob was quickly on his feet with his gun readied in his hand. "Kaiba, it's time for you to" Seto didn't even let him finish, he slammed his forehead against Rob's face, knocking him out in a second. Rob fell to the ground, and Seto flinched a little in pain. That was, among others, the most stupidest thing he had ever done, and it hurt like hell too, but he didn't let that show. Just as Seto turned to make sure his brother was ok, he was shot. Jeff had shot him, his gun still in ready position. He was shaking, he was scared he had killed him, but knew he had to do what he did.
Mokuba gasped, he quickly ran to his brother's side once more as the tears began to flow out again. He shook his brother lightly, trying to say all sorts of things to call out to him, but couldn't in the result of his condition. He wanted so badly to be able to speak at that very moment. "Good job Jeff, you got him. You grab the kid and I'll get this guy to a hospital." Jeff nodded once again, suddenly feeling terrible about what he had just done, but did as Rob said. He grabbed Mokuba, "Time to go"
Mokuba struggled to break free as he began to cry more, he tried reaching out for his brother, but failed. "Come on kid, this is hurting me more than it's hurting you." He said, as he grabbed Mokuba and put him over his shoulder. Mokuba struggled and struggled, but soon relaxed knowing his tiny body strength wouldn't be able to break free of Jeff's hold. He could only watch as his older brother was put on a stretcher and was driven away in an ambulance.
-Police Station-
Tristan still held Serenity in comforting arms as he, Serenity, and Joey waited in the lobby. Joey had a very serious look on his face. He felt there was going to be more going on than just Yugi's trail these few days while they were under criminal watch. He felt there was someone else in the picture.
Duke walked over to them, "Hey guys." Serenity looked up, her face red and wet. "D-Duke?"
"Duke? What are you doing here?" Joey glared at Duke. He was angry, this really wasn't the time to play stupid. Duke must've known about Yugi's death, it was all over Domino High. "You know why were here Duke. We all witnessed Yugi's death" he growled. "Hey, you guys shouldn't be worrying about anything, I mean, come on. It's not like any of you killed him."
"Tea's dead, Duke" Serenity said in a quiet, scared voice. Duke's eyes widened, "What? But who did it?"
"I wish I knew…" Joey said, looking down, "I'm beginning to think there's someone else in the picture that we don't know of. And that he's trying to get rid of us one by one so they won't find out about the truth of Yugi's death."
"But why would anyone kill Yugi in the first place?"
"I don't know Duke… I just don't know…" a police officer walked into the lobby. "Devlin, we're ready to see you." Duke looked over at Joey and the others. Joey simply nodded. Duke turned and followed the officer.
-Duke-
"Hello there. Duke Devlin, right?" Bill asked. Duke merely nodded and sat down across from Bill and Grisome. "So Duke… tell us what happened the night of Yugi's murder."
"I was hanging out with Yugi and the gang. After we hung out at the arcade, we decided to go see a movie. I sat right next to Joey and Yugi, and I heard Joey whispering to Yugi about weed. They must've been passing it back and forth to each other, because they're hands were always moving."
"What were they saying?"
"It was pretty much Joey coaxing Yugi to try some drugs. I could tell Yugi didn't want to, he even lied about him having assma. And when you have been Yugi's friend for as long as I have, you know what he's allergic to and everything. He didn't have ashma." Grisome raised one eyebrow. "What happened after the movie?"
"After the movie I decided to leave, I couldn't stand to see Yugi take drugs because of peer pressure. So I left and went home."
"Did he others know about Joey giving Yugi drugs?"
"I doubt it, I was the only one who was sitting near them." Grisome rubbed his beard, finally speaking up. "How close do you think Joey and Yugi are?"
"Real close. Those guys would've died for each other." Grisome looked at Bill. Bill looked at Duke. Duke was clueless. "What?" he finally said after a long silence. "Do you think, that in the process of being on drugs, Joey could've told Yugi to kill himself, and Yugi would've done it?" Bill asked. Duke's face went blank and sad. "Yes… I think he would have."
-Police Lobby-
Jeff and Rob walked into the lobby and over to Joey. "Joseph Wheeler, you are under arrest for the murder of Yugi Mouto." Joey jumped up, "WHAT!" Duke walked out of the room and looked over at Joey. Joey looked over at Duke, "Duke! Tell these guys I didn't do it! Tell them I wouldn't hurt Yugi in my life!" Duke just looked down. Joey's eyes widened as Rob hand cuffed his hands together. "You… You told them I did this. You told them I killed Yugi… how could you?" he said, still staring at Duke as he was dragged away by Rob.
"Big brother!" Serenity called out. Duke walked over and pulled her into a hug, "It's ok Serenity, he won't hurt anymore people." Serenity pushed him away and slapped him across the face. "How could you say that! My brother would never have hurt Yugi! NEVER! Yugi was his best friend!"
"Oh really, is that why he got him high on drugs?" Serenity shook her head in disgust. "Why are you making up these horrid lies about my brother?" Duke grabbed her arm and pulled her beside him. "Serenity, Serenity, Serenity… when are you gonna stop protecting him? Join me and we can put this monster behind bars."
"NO! That's my brother your talking about, and he's not a monster!" Tristan punched Duke and pushed him away from Serenity. "I don't know what your talking about Duke, but if you so much as touch Serenity I will hit you so hard it'll hurt in your sleep." Duke simply shrugged and walked off. "What do you think Duke was talking about Tristan?"
"I don't know, but whatever it was, it was a lie."
-Seto-
Seto groaned, opening his eyes. Where the hell was he? His memory was very dim. He could only remember… remember Mokuba. Mokuba was crying very hard, and then he remembered, a gun shot. Seto's vision became clear when the struck of panick hit his heart. Suddenly he realized HE was the one who got hurt, and was in the hospital because of it. Now he remembered. 'Seto Kaiba, you are under arrest for the murder of Tea Gardener and Yugi Mouto.'
Seto sat up and looked around. Someone was trying to frame him. And that someone was doing a very good job at it. Seto scratched his head, deep in thought. If he didn't do something soon, this imposter could ruin him and his whole reputation. Kaiba corp. could completely fall into the wrong hands. He could be locked away for life. But who could be trying to hard to frame Seto? And whoever it was, he was smart. If he could out-smart the great Seto Kaiba, then this guy was no piece of cake.
"Good to see your awake, Mr. Kaiba" Rob said, smirking at him as he walked into the room. Seto simply glared. "I don't have to say anything without my lawyer present." Seto could tell this made Rob happy that Seto was afraid of speaking. "Well" he said, pulling a chair over to the side of the bed, "I'll just ask you a few questions, and you can choose weather you want to answer them or not, ok?" Seto didn't say anything. "Ok then… where were you yesterday afternoon?"
"At home, taking care of my younger brother" Seto growled, gritting his teeth. "Ok then, so is it true you know where Tea currently lives?"
"I did know, but that doesn't mean anything."
"Oh, I see… did Tea annoy you?"
"What the is up with these questions!"
"Just answer the question Mr. Kaiba. No need to be violent" he said, grinning once more. If Seto made any attempt at all to hurt Rob, Rob would ether hurt him back and say it was self-defense, or get him in more trouble, and probably use Seto's violence against him. Seto took a deep breath, "Yes… she did annoy me. But you can't prove anything with that, now can you?"
Rob started writing down some stuff on a piece of paper. Seto acted like he could care less, but inside he really wanted to see what he was writing. "So…" Rob said, Seto turning towards him, glaring at him once more. "Do you beat you brother?" The boiled Seto's blood with an intense heat of anger, "WHAT! I MOST CERTAINLY DO NOT!"
"Oh really? Is that why there are fresh cuts and bruises all over him?"
"I would NEVER EVER hurt my younger brother, NEVER. I love him more than life itself, he means the world to me!"
"So you rape him too?" Seto punched him straight across the face. He couldn't control himself anymore, he got up out of bed, knocking over the machine that were attached to his arms as he began to give Rob the beating of his life. Finally a nurse had heard all of the commotion and doctors had finally split both of them up. Rob was bloody and bruised, but mainly his face. Seto panting, trying to recover from his huge outburst. "You just wait Seto Kaiba… you just wait… I get you on death road soon enough for the damage you have done…" Rob said, steadily getting up and wiping the blood from his face. Seto glared, "Bring it on, no low-life police officer can out smart me, espially not someone like you."
"Heh, we'll see about that. See you in the electric chair" Rob said as he turned to leave. "See you in your cardboard box" Seto said back(A/N: Ok, if no one gets that, he's basically saying Rob is a hobo and lives in a cardboard box. Ok! Bye!) Rob stopped, but then continued. Seto filled with pride, but his mind filled with worry. He was getting himself more into trouble, and there was probably more to come. If he didn't do something to prove his innocence, it will be all over for him and everything he ever worked for.
