Chapter 3

"Are you going to tell me what that was about?" asked Kaiba pulling over looking at Joey who sat looking out the window. "Thanks for the ride" he said opening the door.

Kaiba grabbed his hurt shoulder and pulled him back in. Joey hissed in pain and grabbed his shoulder. " Be gentle asshole" he said sarcastically.

Kaiba smirked and leaned back in his seat. Joey closed the car door. "Why do you so desprately need to buy out Southend?" asked Joey leaning back likewise. Kaiba glanced over at him amazed how he so tactfully changed the subject.

"Answer my question and I will anwser yours" he responded coolly. Joey chuckled. "Why do you want to know I simply took the ride offered to me" he answered watching the rain start to slowly hit the window. "Good thing I took it" he said commenting on the rain.

Kaiba couldn't argue with an anwser like that, "I want to buy it and make it into something better something of use to society" Kaiba answered hoping this answer would satisify Joey. It did not.

"Oh" he started. "What about all the people who live in SouthEnd, I Admit there are bad things that happen all the time but there are alot of good people and families who can't afford your society, what will you do with those people who will lose there jobs and homes and lives." asked Joey looking Kaiba evenly in the eyes.

Kaiba didn't think about any of this as it wasn't his concern. "I didn't think of it" admitted Kaiba sighing.

"I didn't think so" said Joey opening the car door stepping out. "By the way" he said turning back to Kaiba. "Do stop sending balding down here i'm sick of slicing his tires and stuff" he said closing the door behind him before walking off down the street.

"That was intresting" chuckled Kaiba starting his car then noticed something on his hand. He looked at it closely and saw it was blood. There was blood on his hand but where was it from.

Then he remembered grabing Joey's shoulder. Joey's shoulder had been bleeding could that be in connection with the strange man from earlier.

Kaiba shook his head and whiped his hand clean. It was none of his concern what happened to the mutt and he wasn't going to get involed.

But why was he bleeding? Kaiba couldn't shake this question from his mind as he drove down the street. Instead of going home Kaiba drove to Southend and began to look around and see what Joey had meant before.

He saw a woman waiting under the eves of a run down little house waving to two small children who were running towards her from the bus stop.

He drove a little further and saw some kids playing a game in an ally sheltered from the rain. The area was ruin down and trashy but there were alot of families and good people here.

Then he saw some men fighting and two men drag the other into an ally then the two left and Kaiba didn't see the other man return after waiting for a few mintues.

This was the bad Joey was talking about but Southend had its own little system something he didn't understand but the mutt did and this puzzled him as he drove home having seen enough of Southend.

Joey walked in the rain holding his shoulder. It wasn't hurting it was burning like it was on fire. Joey hurried up the stairs of the broken down apartment and down the hall to his home quietly making sure no one was home he ran to his room and bolted it locked with all seven of the locks he hand on his door.

He took off his wet shirt and went to examine the nasty cut like bruise on his shoulder which was swelling and turning a nasty greenish purple infected color.

Joey had suffered enough beatings and cuts to know this needed to be handled. So he went into his bathroom and cleaned the wounded out throughly with alchool this brought tears to his eyes.

He bound up the wound and took two sleeping pills changed into his pjs and crashed on to his bed going to sleep. Around the same time Kaiba had just sat down to start some work he had to do for Kaiba Corp.

Well that was Chapter 3 Review
