If I did not make this clear, Yugi no longer has a heart condition. His condition is having male and female reproduction systems.
Chapter 9- Tornados
The next day was the last day of school before Christmas break.
After school, Seto turned to Yugi and said, "Yugi, I'm going on home. There's something that I need to take care of. Would you mind going and getting Mokuba?"
"Of course not. I'd be glad to." Yugi replied.
There were two limos outside, and Seto got into one of them.
Yugi got into the other one and said, "We need to get Mokuba."
"Yes, sir." the limo driver replied.
The limo drove to Mokuba's school.
Mokuba got in and said, "Hi, Yugi!"
"Hey, Mokuba. Your brother went on to the house. He said that he had something he needed to do." Yugi said.
"Okay. What do you think he had to do?" Mokuba asked.
"I have no idea. I figure that we'll go on home and play that new board game Seto got you." Yugi said.
"All right!" Mokuba exclaimed.
"We're going over to the Kaiba mansion?" Yami asked.
"Yes. I want to know what role Seto's playing in all this, and I think that we need to confront him about everything." Leo said.
"Before we go, you should-"Atemu started.
"You're not talking me out of this, Atemu. I am sick and tired of these games." Leo said.
"Let's go! Moneybags isn't going to stop us from finding anything out now!" Joey said.
"About time. I thought that we were going to be wondering what was going on for the rest of the year." Tristan said.
"Is this a good idea? Seto might try to have his security staff throw us out." Tea said.
"Who cares? I'll just use my magic to stop them." Bakura said.
"Bakura, you are not sending anyone to the Shadow realm!" Ryou shouted.
"We're not, but we will use it to get in to see him." Yami said.
"Listen. There's something-" Atemu tried.
"Let's get going. I think I heard him say to Yugi that he was going straight home." Kyla said.
"Will you just-" Atemu began.
"If we're going to do this, then let's get going." Yuesei said.
The group started out the door.
Atemu sighed, frustrated. "They need to know the danger those two are in." Atemu said before following them out.
"Good. I'm sure that Yugi and Heba will both be glad to hear that news. Thanks, Zepher. I will. Good-bye." Seto said. He hung up the phone and smiled. "Yugi and Heba are in for one hell of a Christmas surprise." Seto said.
The news was on and the newscaster said, "A tornado watch has been issued for Domino City. All residents are told to be on the watch."
Seto frowned. "Tornados rarely happen here." Seto said.
The door to his office opened, and Mokuba looked in.
"Hey, big brother. I thought that I'd let you know Yugi and I are home. We're going to play that new game you got me, so we'll be in the game room." Mokuba said.
"All right, Mokuba." Seto said.
Mokuba ducked back out and shut the door.
Seto shook his head at Mokuba's antics.
His speaker phone buzzed. He pressed a button and said, "Yes, Roland."
"Mr. Kaiba, Mr. Leonardo Silver with several others are here to see you." Roland said.
Seto frowned. He didn't really want to see them, but he knew that if he didn't see them, they would just use their magic to get in. "Fine. Show them up to my office." Seto said.
"Yes, sir." Roland replied.
Seto shut off the intercom and sighed. "So much for a relaxing afternoon." Seto muttered.
"You ready to play, Mokuba?" Yugi asked.
"Sure am. I hope this is a good game." Mokuba said.
They had the radio on, and the anchor said, "We repeat that a tornado watch has been issued for Domino City. Residents are warned to be ready."
"I didn't know that tornados happen here." Mokuba said.
"They do. They're just rare. I think I remember Grandpa saying that the last tornado happened when he was a kid." Yugi said.
"Think its anything to worry about?" Mokuba asked.
"Shouldn't be. It's warning. If it was a tornado watch, then yeah. Just relax." Yugi said.
Mokuba nodded. "So, who goes first?" Mokuba asked.
"You go first." Yugi said.
Mokuba nodded and picked up the dice and rolled.
There was a knock on Seto's office door.
Seto sighed. "Might as well get this over with." Seto said. He stood up and said, "Come in."
Roland opened the door, and Leo, Yuesei, Joey, Tristan, Yami, Atemu, Sayora, Kyla, Tea, Ryou, and Bakura walked into the room.
'The entire group is here.' Seto thought with disdain. "What do all of you want?" Seto asked.
"I've had enough of these games. I want to know why you have taken such an interest in Yugi's problems." Leo said.
"Is it so hard for you to believe that I actually care?" Seto asked.
"Yes, considering you never seems to give a damn about anyone other than yourself." Joey said.
Seto glared. "All right. You want to know the truth. Here it is. While you all got so caught yup in your own damn lives that you completely forgot about the fact that Yugi was still here, Yugi became lonely and depressed. He felt like one of you cared. Mokuba saw what you were doing, and he saw how it was affecting Yugi, so he decided to try and do something to help Yugi. Mokuba would bring Yugi here to play with him hoping that Yugi wouldn't feel quite so alone, and it worked. Yugi and Mokuba had fun while they were here, and Yugi began to feel like someone actually cared." Seto said.
"That doesn't-" Yami started.
"I'm not done yet." Seto snapped.
Yami glared at him, but remained quiet.
"Since Yugi was here almost everyday playing with Mokuba, I got a glimpse of the Yugi I never saw. I saw that he was a kind, sweet, and caring person. He showed me kindness and compassion where I certainly did not deserve it. I got to where I started talking to Yugi, and I found that I liked having him around, and I hated what it was that I saw you were all doing to him. I managed to get Yugi to talk to me about what was going on, and I saw how much it hurt. He talked to me about how he had been having thoughts of suicide because of how you were treating him." Seto said.
The stunned looks were enough to tell Seto that they really had not paid attention.
"Obviously, none of you saw that. You were so caught up in your lives that you didn't notice anything, including his depression and suicidal thoughts. Thankfully, he told me that as soon as he had those thoughts, they were pushed away just as easily. He told me that he would never take his own life. He wouldn't do that to the people who did care. I saw how much living with six of the people that were causing the pain was making everything worse, so I asked him to move in. I knew that living there was only doing more harm than good. At first, he declined, and I didn't press the issue. I just told him the offer was open if he changed his mind. He called me and told me he had changed his mind, that he couldn't take it anymore. That's why I care. He is my friend. Probably the only person that I really consider a friend that I trust. Satisfied?" Seto asked.
"That may explain a lot, but it doesn't explain why he kept avoiding us." Leo said.
"That was Yugi's choice. He was hurt by how you ignored him and were so quick to get on his case about moving in with me. You acted like he didn't exist and then suddenly cared. Believe me. Yugi wanted to think about a lot of things." Seto said.
"It doesn't mean that you needed to isolate him from us." Tristan said.
"Oh, you did a fine job of that when you suggested that he was sleeping with me." Seto snarled.
"He already apologized for that." Tea snapped.
"Maybe Yugi's forgiven you, but that doesn't mean I have. That remark was directed as much at me as it was at Yugi." Seto said.
"If you're not dating him, then why are you trying so hard to keep him here?" Yami asked.
"Yugi likes it here. He plays with Mokuba a lot. At least Mokuba actually cares. All you seem to care about is spending every spare second you have with your girlfriend!" Seto shouted.
The news was still on. "The tornado watch has now become a tornado warning. All residents are warned to stay inside." the newscaster said.
No one heard it.
"What girlfriend? What are you talking about?" Yami asked, angry at the insinuation.
No one noticed the darkening sky or the powerful winds that were hipping around outside.
"You know damn well what I'm talking about. You've been seeing her for the last month or so." Seto stated.
"Look, Seto. I have no idea what it is that you are talking about, but I don't have a girlfriend. I have never dated anyone." Yami said.
Seto's eyes flashed. "You have to be joking. Lying isn't going to change the fact that you have been dating a girl who somehow managed tog et you to completely forget about someone who you swore to protect!" Seto shouted, glaring harshly at Yami.
"Hold on, Seto." Kyla said.
"If you think that I'm going to let him lie to me, you're crazy!" Seto yelled.
"Don't talk to my sister that way!" Leo warned.
"Seto, do you think that Yami has been dating Tea?" Kyla asked.
"Of course I do. The entire school was talking about, and he spent so much time over at her house that it's a wonder he even remembered that he had a home!" Seto shouted.
"I was not dating Tea! Everyone got the wrong impression! We are just friends! She was helping me with a personal problem!" Yami growled.
"Obviously you had to run to her. Yugi wasn't someone that you could turn to for help with that problem. He's supposed to be someone that you could turn to." Seto said.
No one noticed the swirling funnel that was heading right for the mansion.
"We were just friends! Yami and I have never dated!" Tea cried.
Yuesei glanced out the window, and he froze in horror at what he saw.
"Like I'm going to believe that!" Seto shot back.
"Leo." Yuesei said.
"Can't you believe someone when they are telling the truth, you damned priest!" Bakura yelled.
"Especially not when its coming from you!" Seto retorted.
"Leo." Yuesei said a little louder.
"You're so stubborn! We are telling the truth!" Joey insisted.
"Oh, that's real comforting coming for a mutt." Seto said.
"They were not dating. Those rumors were unfunded." Sayora said.
"Even if that's true, it doesn't excuse the fact that you completely ignored him Yami! You swore to protect him, but you hurt him instead!" Seto yelled.
"Leo!" Yuesei said.
"You're really getting on my nerves! Why can't you just believe us or let us see Yugi?!" Tristan demanded.
"Because he doesn't want!" Seto shouted.
"LEOANARDO SILVER!" Yuesei screamed.
Everyone became silent and heard what sounded like a train.
"There's no train near here." Seto said.
"Oh my god!" tea cried.
Everyone looked out the window behind Seto's desk to see the funnel coming right at them.
"Everyone! Get out of the way!" Leo shouted.
Yugi and Mokuba were deep in their game when Mokuba noticed something.
"Yugi, why is it so dark?" Mokuba asked.
Yugi looked outside. "I don't know. I guess there might be a storm coming." Yugi said.
"Okay." Mokuba said , and they continued their game.
IT wasn't long before they heard what sounded like a train.
"Yugi, there's no trains around here." Mokuba said.
Yugi stood up and walked over to the window. He pulled the curtains back and saw the funnel speeding toward the house.
"Yugi, what-" Mokuba started.
Yugi's eyes widened in horror as he realized exactly what was happening. "Mokuba, run!" Yugi screamed.
Mokuba wasn't told twice. He turned and started to leave the room.
Yugi turned to follow him.
The tornado hit the mansion full force and started to rip the mansion to shreds.
Inside, Seto's office, the wall had already been ripped away and the winds threatened to pull everyone out into it.
"Everyone, hold on!" Leo shouted.
Everyone was holding onto something.
Joey lost is grip and started flying out. "AH!!!" Joey screamed.
Seto reached out and grabbed Joey by the arm and pulled him back with. "Hold on!" Seto shouted over the wind.
Leo was holding onto Kyla and Yuesei was holding onto Sayora.
Tea and Tristan were holding onto each other as they held onto a beam.
Bakura held onto Ryou as he tried to keep Ryou from flying out of the room.
Yami and Atemu were both holding on desperately to a beam.
"No body let go!" Leo ordered.
"I don't know how much longer we can hold on!" Yami shouted back.
"It shouldn't last long!" Seto said.
The tornado blew the window of the Game Room in and sent Yugi flying forward.
"YUGI!" Mokuba shouted.
He grabbed hold of a beam and tried to hold on.
The entire house shook and part of the roof fell in.
"AHHH!" Mokuba screamed.
The tornado continued to ravage the mansion.
The walls were ripped apart, and parts of the house were dragged up into the tornado.
The garage was ripped out, and the cars were strewn out.
The yard was being dug up.
The windows were burst inside.
The entire mansion was being ripped to shreds as the tornado continued to go right through it.
Slowly, the tornado passed the mansion and headed for the city.
Now, the winds had died down, and all seemed to be calm.
"But the Kaiba mansion was in ruins.
Parts had collapsed, others were leaning, and some were tattered.
It looked nothing like what it did before the tornado.
The fourteen people were trapped inside the mansion.
Ishizu gasped. Something was wrong.
"Ishizu, are you all right?" Grandpa asked.
The Ishtars had gone to the Game Shop to talk to Yami, but only found Grandpa there.
"Sister, did you have a vision?" Malik asked.
Marik looked out the window and his eyes widened. "Tornado!" Marik shouted.
Odion grabbed Ishizu and Grandpa and pulled them to the ground. Marik pulled Malik to the ground as the tornado hit the Game Shop.
The tornado started to pull the roof and parts of the walls apart.
The tornado continued to ravage the city of Domino. Houses, business, and everything in the city was being destroyed.
The tornados' path of destruction continued as it slowly headed on and slowly dissipated, leaving the city destroyed, and many in danger.
Hope you liked it.
You'll see what happened to everyone in the next chapter.
R&R.
