Chapter 4

-Mokuba-

Jeff knocked on the door once more. He sighed, then looked down at Mokuba. He had a blank look on his face. "I'm coming" a muffled voice said from the other side of the door. It was finally opened by a young teen with long light blue hair. "Hello-Mokuba? What are you doing here?" Kari said, shocked. She looked up at the police man. "What's the problem, officer? Did Mokuba do something wrong?"

"Not at all ma'am. Are you 'Makura Bruder'?" Kari shook her head. "That's my sister."

"What about me?" Kari jumped and twisted around. "Oh, it's you Kura" Kari gave a sigh of relief. "This officer guy wanted to see you" Kari said, turning back and looking down at Mokuba. He was still looking blankly at the ground. "Miss Bruder, it seems you were the only one even close to be a relative to young Mokuba here, it seems Seto's gotten himself into a lot of trouble."

"Trouble? What do you mean?" Kura asked, eyeing Jeff. "I'm afraid to say that Seto Kaiba is being trailed for murder at the moment. We were forced to take custody of Mokuba, but I can tell ya he didn't go down without a fight."

"Oh my gosh! Murder? Is he alright? How could you even believe Seto would murder someone! He's always kept his temper contained…"

"I know this is hard for you, but all the evidence points to him."

"So why did you bring Mokuba here then?" Kari added. "Well, since Mokuba has now been taken out of Seto Kaiba's care, we had to give him to the next closet person, which would be you 2. Will that be alright? You're current locations will be under cover and you'll be safe under witness protection."

"Oh course we'll-" Kura put her hand over Kari's mouth. "Could we just have one second?" Kura asked, then pulled Kari into another room. "Kari, you have no idea what your getting us into, we could be in serious danger."

"What on earth are you talking about, Kura? Mokuba's not gonna hurt us."

"No, not Mokuba. Whoever killed Yugi. I heard about Tea's murder, they said that the murderer will be hunting down any person who is linked to the murder. If we take Mokuba under our wing, we could be the next."

"Kura, we can't just leave Mokuba to some foster people. This is tough for the little guy, he needs people he can trust, people he knows. Plus, Seto would want us to take Mokuba, he doesn't want some stranger taking care of his brother." Kura paused for a minute. Kari failed to realize just how dangerous this was. This wasn't about just having another mouth to feed, it was about their lives. They could get hurt, or even killed. But Kari was right, Seto would've never forgive her if Kura had just pushed Mokuba away for her own safety.

"Alright" Kura said, she walked back over to the door with Kari by her side. "He can stay with us." Mokuba looked up, breaking off his blank stare as he slowly smiled. "There is one thing though" Jeff stated. "Yeah?" Kari asked. "Mokuba, because he had witness a very, might I say, disturbing event, he has been unable to speak. We don't know when he will regain his voice, or if he'll ever, but I just wanted you 2 ladies to know." Kura merely nodded as Kari brought him into warm arms and brought him inside. Kura closed the door and turned to Kari.

"So little buddy, are you hungry?" Kari asked, looking down at Mokuba. He nodded. "Ok, you just sit right here while me and Kura cook you up something good." She said kindly as she set him down near the table and walked into the kitchen with Kura. "Poor little guy, must be traumatized" Kari said as she got out a bowl and a can of soup. "I wouldn't feel too hot ether if people thought my brother was a murderer" Kura added as she watched her sister put on the soup and let it boil. Kura looked down at her stomach as she placed her hand on it. "When do you think I should tell Seto?" Kura asked.

Kari looked over to Kura and knew what she meant, "The time will come. Right now I think he has enough trouble on his hands."

"You don't think he'll be mad about it… do you?"

"Seto? Nah… maybe shocked, but not mad."

"Oh…" Kura said, she looked back over to the soup that was starting to bubble a lot. "Soup's ready" Kura said. Kari quickly turned off the stove and poured the soup gently into a bowl. Kura looked at her stomach again. Kari could see the worry in her eyes. "Don't worry about it Kura" Kari reassured as she left and went to the table. "Here you go, Mokie-kun. Fresh and made with love." She placed the bowl in front of Mokuba. Mokuba smiled as he began to slowly drink the soup. 'Poor little guy, he must be so afraid' Kari thought to herself as she watched him eat.

-Seto-

Seto paced himself back and forth in his cell. He really had nothing better to do. He had been sent out of the hospital when the doctors said he was well enough, and sent him right into jail. Seto shook his head as he leaned against the stone wall and looked up at the bared together window. The bit of light that actually shone through was very bright and radiant. This made him even more depressed about the situation. It wasn't that he wished himself free, or even that he wanted to see the wonders of the outside. He was just scared, afraid for his brother. And he longed greatly to see Kura once again. She was probably the only person in the world who ever made him laugh.

He smiled remembering all those times together. She had a personality of a child, but the face of an angel. There was something special about Kura. Seto didn't exactly know yet, but something about her made him feel almost too sure that she was the one for him.

Seto's heard jerked up when he heard footsteps. He quickly got to his feet and sat on the bed, pretending to be preoccupied in his thoughts. A police man walked up to the door, "Come on, time to go" the police man said sternly. Seto quickly got to his feet and walked over to the door as the police man opened the door for him. "Am I free to go?" Seto asked with eagerness. "Nope, you going in for questioning" he said, turning Seto around and hand cuffing him again. "Questioning? But I've already been questioned." But the police man didn't say another word, he just pushed Seto along down the hallway.

He was soon left in a dark room with Rob once again. "What's the meaning of this?" Seto said in a low, dark voice as he glared at Rob. "You would know exactly what it is, wouldn't you?"

"Get to the point."

"Kura and Kari were shot" Seto's heart skipped a beat, "What?" The thought of Kura being gone forever worried him. "Are they alive?"

"Thankfully, yes. We found a knife and a gun with Kura and Kari's blood on it; evidence of prints on the gun show it's yours."

"NO! I would NEVER hurt Kura! NEVER! I love her… I love her damnit, how can you people possibly think I could be doing all of this?"

"They were both shot between the times of when you were released from the hospital and when you came here." Seto got up, "I will not let you win, I will not let you make people think I would be doing this to the only people I have left to consider a family." Seto grabbed a chair and threw it against the wall. Rob quickly jumped away as wood pieces from the chair flew off. "I swear Rob, if it's the last thing I do, I will beat you. I will make sure I win this case."

Rob put on a grinning face. "Good luck with that" he said as he began to head towards the door. Seto watched him, his hands balled up in a fist, he could still feel the anger running through his veins. "Oh, and one last thing" Rob said before leaving. "While we were operating on Makura, we found out she's pregnant. We're thinking this one is yours?" Seto's anger vanished. "Pregnant?"

"Yes. You'll be returning to your cell in a few minutes. Good day to you" Rob said as he turned and left, closing the door behind him. Seto walked over and sat down, completely confused. She was pregnant…? Kura had never mentioned it… oh wait, maybe it was that one thing she had wanted to tell him the day before Yugi's murder. But he didn't think he was actually going to be a baby.

Seto put his hand through his hair as he began to breathe deeply. It was pretty stressful when the whole world seemed against you and someone was on your ass trying to get you on death row.

-Crime Scene-

"Grim, I think we might've found something" Jeff said as he led Grimson to a tree only a few feet behind where Yugi's friends had been standing from the crime scene. "What is it?" he asked. "We found a stray bullet from a gun, and this" Jeff held up a long strand of black hair with his twizers. "So it could be the kid or Devlin" Jeff added. "I don't think it was the kid, he had no reason to do it, his brother wouldn't have let him near a gun."

"What if Seto is trying to cover it up for him?"

"Kaiba's doing everything BUT cover it up for ANYONE except himself. Plus, this would explain why the bullet was right through Yugi's head, it he was shot from the back, not the front. Kaiba's innocent. Jeff, I want you to find out who's that is and report back to me immediately."

"Yes sir" Jeff nodded and ran off. Grimson rubbed his beard. "We got us a hide and go seek game."

-Seto-

Seto was back in his cell. Confused, angry, and eager to speak with Kura. They said he was lucky if he even got to see her. But hopefully they would let him considering he had no one else to go to. Seto was drawing in the sand that covered the stone floor with his finger when he heard footsteps once again. He looked up to see none other than Joey. Seto opened his mouth to say something.

"Kaiba, Serenity was murdered. I know it wasn't you who did it. I know you didn't kill Yugi because I lied about the whole thing. I'm 100 percent behind you, I want to catch the son of a bitch who killed my sister and I know I'll need your help to do it." Seto got up and walked over to the door of the cell where Joey stood. "Well, I don't usually make compromises with mutts" Seto said, but instead reached out his hand and shook Joey's. "But I guess this will be the only time." Joey nodded.

-Crime Lab-

Jeff ran into Grimson's office, "The hair strand was Duke's, he had the gun."

"Well, get a warrant and let's go" he said as he got up and ran out of the room with Jeff.

-Duke's House-

The police men were armed as Rob pounded loudly on the door. "Open the door, this is the police!" Rob yelled. The door was opened by Duke. "Can I help you?" Rob twisted him around and put hand cuffs on him. "Your under arrest for the murder of Yugi Mouto."

"What? But I didn't do it?"

"Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law" Jeff stated as he shoved him over to the police car. "I want you to get a warrant on Duke's house and I want you to secure the premises. I don't want anymore deaths till I get this guy on trail" Grim instructed as the other officers quickly went to work.

Yay! Another chapter! Sorry it took me so long to update.U
