-1A/N: I'm only writing this because one, I just got all sliced up in Resident Evil 4, and two, I got new reviewers! New reviewers as well as old make Kuro smile.

Thanks:

Japan: Well, go ahead and draw him but I request that I get a copy. I'm glad you like it so much. Here's the update.

Ash89: Here's some more, I hope this makes you happy.

Disclaimer: I'm getting sick of these. I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh!

MELTING OF THE HEART

After a month, Seto was allowed to return home. He was told no strenuous activity, since his burns weren't completely healed yet.

As he stepped into the mansion, he noticed that it was completely quiet. Obviously, Mokuba had probably gone to visit Satoya. Seto sighed, feeling a bit put out that his little brother would forget that he was coming home today. He slowly walked into the living room and sat on the couch, pulling out a phone. He wanted to make sure that Leana and Chaz were all right, as they were being held in the U.S. embassy until the case is solved.

"Hello?" Leana's voice answered on the other line once the American's realized that it was her employer.

"Miss Fairchild. I do hope they're treating you well there." Seto said.

"Oh! Kaiba-sama! Chaz, it's Kaiba-sama!" Leana's voice was gleeful on her end. "Are you well, Kaiba-sama?"

"Yes. I'm fine. Have you two heard from Mokuba?" he asked, smiling softly. There was no one around, so he could deny it later.

"No. He's tried to visit us, but they won't let him." Leana's voice sounded angry as she switched to Japanese.

"Oh? They won't?" Seto was surprised.

"No. They let Satoya in though. Him and Ryou. Mainly because Ryou looks American, or English, you know?" Leana said before he heard her argue on the other end for a moment. Then there was a sigh. "Chaz wants to talk to you, so I'll be back in a minute."

"Kaiba-sama?" Chaz's voice came on.

"Yes." Seto answered.

"What if…Sarah was behind this?" his voice seemed to shake.

"It's possible. Have you spoken with her?" Seto asked.

"No. She's here too, but Leana said that she'd rip her eyes out if she came near us again. I'm not doubting it, either." Seto could hear a muffled 'Hey! I heard that!' from the other end.

"I wouldn't either. Well, as long as you two are all right…"

"Wait. Leana wanted to ask you a few questions, since you called." Chaz stopped Seto.

"All right. I'm not busy, any way." It actually made him feel good, the two wanting to talk to him.

As he spoke with them, he never noticed the blonde head of hair peek into the room and wave to others behind him. He never noticed the people that snuck passed the doorway of the living room with decorations and things.

That was, until the music threatened to make his ears bleed.

"Well, seems like we've done our job. Talk to you later, Kaiba-sama!" Leana giggled and hung up.

"What the hell…?" Seto asked himself as he stared at his phone. He hung up and stood. He slowly made his way to the door only to be barred from leaving by Bakura and Marik.

"We can't let you go in just yet." Marik grinned.

"What are you two doing in my mansion? Better yet, how'd you get in?" Seto growled.

" Mokuba let us in." Bakura shrugged.

"Hey! Guys, ok!" Ryou's head popped out from the ball room. Why Seto had a ballroom was beyond him.

"All right. Let's go, Kaiba." The two each grabbed an arm and pulled him into the ballroom.

"Hey! What's going on?" Seto protested as they pulled him in. He stared once inside though.

"Thought that might get him to shut up." Malik grinned.

The room was decorated with party lights and a large DJ system. There were snacks and drinks placed beside the wall and the chairs and tables that normally decorated the room were conveniently missing. Ryou and Malik were leaning on each other, smirking while breathing heavily. Otogi and Yami were leaning on a wall, looking rather smug as well. Jou and Honda were still setting snacks out on the tables. Seto heard a door slam from behind them and turned to see Leana and Chaz run in, followed by American agents.

"We tried to ditch them, but it didn't work." Leana explained in Japanese.

"Want us to take care of them?" Bakura asked, cracking his fist.

"No, no. Don't worry about it, Bakura." Chaz said nervously.

"Aw, but Chaz…" Bakura whined.

"Hey! Shut up!" Mokuba's voice sounded from the other door leading out of the room. Seto turned to see Mokuba escorting Satoya into the room. He walked the boy all the way to Seto.

"Hello, Seto-kun…" Satoya said shyly, looking down. Seto pulled his chin up.

"You're ok, then?" he asked. Satoya nodded before hugging Seto. Leana, Ryou, and Mokuba cheered. Chaz grinned, Bakura and Marik rolled their eyes, Malik shook his head, and Jou and Honda made vomiting noises. Otogi and Yami were too busy with each other to notice what was going on.

"Let this party get started!" Leana shouted, breaking up the peaceful moment.

A/N: Hah. Now, I get to know what happens at the party and you all have to wait until I get more reviews to know! R&R!
