Mokuba The Brave And The Not-So-Cowardly Thief
"You have some nerve."
"Huh?" Startled, Bakura rose up from his position crouched low to the floor. He tensed in preparation for a fight and whirled around, only to come face to…well, face to the top two inches of spiky black hair. Spiky black hair belonging to one Mokuba Kaiba. Damn! I've been caught! Play it cool, 'Kura… "What are you talking about, kid?" That's right, the best defense is a good offense…or something.
Mokuba huffed and stood his ground. "Don't think I don't know what you're doing here, Thief King Bakure," he said pointedly. "I maybe be little, but that doesn't mean I'm stupid." Or cowardly.
"You could've fooled me," Bakura grumbled under his breath. Honestly, he isn't even trying to stop me from stealing from him – hasn't called for his brother, or security… It's only him standing between me and revenge…and maybe some insanely expensive piece of technology which I can pawn on E-Bay for an equally insane amount of money, he thought with a secret smile.
"You are so mean!" Mokuba complained. "You're here trying to steal from us, and you keep picking on me and my brother."
Bakura looked down his nose at the younger Kaiba. "Criticism. Just one more service I offer," he sneered, a glint of mirth lurking in his eyes.
Mokuba snorted. "And here I thought it was sarcasm. What's the other one? How to get caught stealing from the Kaiba mansion?" he said, emphasizing that one particular word to let Bakura know that the fact that he, Mokuba Kaiba, had caught the infamous Thief King would soon be making the rounds of everyone in Domino City in the know.
Glaring at the half-pint of a brat standing in front of him, Bakura growled low in his throat. He simultaneously managed to pull off a rather menacing look on his face, even though the 'growl' he was making sounded like he had a purring cat trapped in his gullet.
Mokuba blinked and stared at the tomb robber. Calling upon reserves of stoicness he didn't even knew he possessed – he must have borrowed them from his brother for the moment – he managed not to burst out laughing at the…peculiar sound coming from Bakura.
Ani-sama's not gonna believe this…
