Mysterious Feeling's Chapter 2

Tea stirred.

Her eyes fluttered open and she was hit with a massive migraine. She tried to focus on her surrounding's to see if she knew where she was, but her vision was blurred. She tried to remember the last thing that had happened but it caused her already aching head to explode with more pain.

She shut her eyes again and tried to concentrate on what she was lying on. It was soft… and familiar… it was her bed!

"It's alright darling, I'm here." A soothing, yet strained voice came from beside her.

"Dad?" she whispered.

"Yes, honey," he whispered back, "it's all right I'm here now."

Tea moaned. The pain was almost unbearable.

"What happened?" she asked.

"I found you lying on the pavement, unconscious." He explained, "You must have been attacked by someone and just left there."

"Why were you out?"

"I was looking for you!" Alan smiled, "You're my daughter no-matter what you do or say (Tea felt a pang of guilt), and you weren't here so I decided to look for you."

"But-"

"No more questions." He interrupted, "Lie down and get some rest!"

Tea didn't argue. Her father kissed her gently on the forehead and left the room. Tea turned over. After what seemed like an eternity of tossing and turning she finally fell into a fitful sleep.

She was in the alley. Her attacker was behind her. No wait, to the side of her! No!

He was too fast. She couldn't keep up with him. She spun around and around but failed to see him. He was wearing a hooded cloak so that she couldn't see his face, but something about him seemed familiar…

She felt something hit the back of her head and she crashed to the floor. Something landed beside her…something wooden! She heard footsteps… He was running away…

She felt someone else kneel down beside her and hushed voices. She was lifted into the air and hoisted over someone's shoulder.

Tea woke up, sitting bolt upright. She looked around but didn't recognise where she was. Someone walked in.

"Ah, Tea, you're awake."

"Who are you? Where am I?" she asked, "And why am I here?" she added as an afterthought.

"You are in Domino Hospital," the nurse explained, "Your father brought you in after you suffered a mild convulsion that no doubt scared him!"

"Tea!"

A young boy with ebony hair came running through the door and flung himself at Tea.

"Mokuba?"

Mokuba looked up at her surprised face and laughed. Tea looked towards the door and saw Seto Kaiba waiting there awkwardly.

"Kaiba?"

"Your head must have had quite a blow to your head it if you don't know who we are."

"I do know who you are I'm just a bit surprised that's all!" she stated, "Why are you here anyway?"

"We were the ones that found you Tea!" Mokuba spoke up, "You were out cold on the pavement, so Seto picked you up and we took you back to yours!"

Tea blushed.

It's not that she liked him or anything, but he was the last person who wanted to find her like that.

I wonder why dad lied to me Tea wondered, he said he was the one that found me!

"Tea!" her father came in and stopped when he saw Seto and Mokuba but, to his relief, it seemed none of them had said anything about finding her and Tea didn't give any indication that she knew either.

Tea decided she wouldn't say anything to him…yet.

"Hi" she smiled, looking at her father hovering near the doorway, looking at Seto.

Alan took a few, slow steps forward before revealing what he had concealed behind his back. He came forward a few more steps, placing the beautiful lily's in the vase by Tea's bed.

"These are Mokuba and Kaiba," Tea waved her hand lazily in their direction, as Alan was still glancing at them.

"He already knows Tea…" Mokuba began, before getting a glare of Seto that, quite clearly, said shut up!

Mokuba looked confused. Mr. Gardner already who they were because he had asked them when they had taken Tea back. He had looked really stressed and pale, but Mokuba assumed that was because he didn't know where Tea was, and that they had brought her back hurt.

Tea made no inclination that she had heard Mokuba, which left him even more confused.

"Seto? Can I please have a word with you? Outside?" he pressed, taking his brothers hand. He dragged him outside until they were completely out of earshot of Tea and her father.

"What is it Mokuba?"

"Why did Tea think that her dad found her? And why did you tell me to shut up when I was saying he already knew who we were!"

"I didn't tell you to shut up." Seto replied.

"No, the look you gave me said it all!" Mokuba said indignantly, "and stop dodging the question!"

Seto hated his brother for being able to tell when people were dodging questions, however good they were at doing it, Mokuba could always tell! Most people only realised that Seto had done it when the conversation was long over.

"I don't think that Mr. Gardner told her that we found her. I think he said that he did!"

"But why would he lie like that!" Mokuba burst out.

"I don't know Mokuba and I really don't care," Seto sighed, walking down the corridor, "come on, we're going."

Mokuba stood there torn between going after his brother, who was already halfway down the corridor, or staying with Tea and making sure she was ok. He looked back at the still open door that led to her room. He could hear voices, angry voices. Curiosity got the best of him and he silently made his way back to the doorway.

"I didn't lie!" Alan's voice came from within the hospital room.

"Yes you did!" Tea's voice came loudly, accusingly, "Seto and Mokuba would never lie to me about that! They had no reason!"

Mokuba didn't even realise that she had called his brother 'Seto' but he knew that he didn't want to be caught listening to this argument. He ran down the corridor bumping into a few nurses here and there, and he caught up with Seto in the lobby.

"I thought you were staying here with Gardner." He smirked.

"No I just wanted to make sure that she was ok before we left!" Mokuba lied.

Seto's eyes narrowed, "Spill it kid"

"Ok, ok," Mokuba held up his hands surrendering, "I sorta overheard an argument with Tea and her dad"

"What sort of argument?"

They both continued through the lobby and out the doors, to the limousine that was waiting for them outside.

"Well, Tea was asking her dad why he lied to her," explained Mokuba, "I wasn't sure what about at first but then she said that we would have no reason to lie to her about that, so I kinda figured it was about who found her"

Seto didn't say anything, so Mokuba continued.

"He said that he didn't lie, so I was right!"

"Right about what?"

"That Tea had originally thought it was her dad that found her!" he exclaimed, "but why did he?"

"Like I said before, I don't know…and I don't care"

But I do care,Seto thought, why would her own father lie to her about finding her. What does he have to hide…

Why do you care what happened? asked another voice, she's just another one of Yugi's pathetic friends.

Seto had an argument in his head. The truth was…he didn't know why he cared. He just wanted to find out, after all, wasn't what Gozaboro once taught him…to find out as much as possible about your enemy…

But she's not your enemy, she hasn't done anything to you…

Seto was snapped back to reality when he heard the crunch of gravel underneath the car wheels. They had arrived at the Kaiba Mansion. He and Mokuba stepped out of the limousine and went inside. Mokuba immediately kicked off his shoes and ran into the living room, yelling something about 'killing some zombie butt' on Mega Mutilation: Return of the dead.

Seto, however, walked past and went into his office. He switched on his computer and grabbed a cup of coffee, while looking for any information he could find on Tea…

An hour later all he had found out was the usual things that he already knew. He was about to give up and go to bed but a picture caught his eye. He opened the file an examined the picture. It was in Domino hospital and Tea, Zach and Alan were standing around a hospital bed. A young, beautiful, but very ill woman lay in the bed, propped up on a few pillows. Tea's mother…

Seto was looking at the article underneath the picture…

Rose Gardner has baffled the worlds best doctors with a rare disorder that no-one knew existed. The 36 year old mother of two is still smiling and trying to live her life normally despite the constant visits to the hospital.

Her daughter, Tea Gardner was very upset but smiled, "Mom will come through this…she's a fighter!"

Although the doctors say differently and predict she will only have 6 months to live, the family are still living in hope. Zach Gardner told us that as long as he has his sister, he will be able to get through whatever life throws at him.

Seto stopped reading and stared in disbelief at the computer screen. There was an article underneath that stated her mother had died 6 months ago.

How could she still have been walking around school with a smile on her face…laughing and joking with her friends if you could call them friends the other voice in his head sneered.

Seto was about to close down the computer when yet another article caught his eye. He read it, his eyes widening the further down the article he got.

Well this is interesting…

Seto made a mental note to ask Tea about this, the next chance he got. And with that he finally shut down the system, made sure everything was locked up and went upstairs to bed.

Tea awoke the next morning, still confined to the hospital bed. She had pleaded desperately for them to let her go home but they said they needed to keep her in over night for surveillance.

"I hate hospitals…" Tea muttered looking around then remembering where she was.

She got up and changed out of the stupid hospital gown that she had been wearing and into her black jeans and a black turtle neck top. She was about to walk out when a nurse came in and looked at her. She just smiled.

"Now, now Tea you can't go yet!" the nurse stated.

"But, Kari, you know I hate hospitals!" Tea whined.

"Look Tea, your father has had to go out of town for something important, and as a special favour to him I have said I will keep you here until he comes back," Tea was about to say something but Kari cut her off, "he also said you were not allowed to go home on your own, however capable you are to look after yourself!"

Tea sighed, staring at the floor, looking dejected.

"Look Tea, I know we have known each other for a very long time, I would be no friend if I went against your dads wishes." However the nurse let out a sly smile, "but he didn't say that you couldn't stop with friends."

Tea eyes lit up.

Yugi! Then she sighed. He was already on his way to the airport. He just had to go on holiday, didn't he…Joey… no…Tristan…no…Mai…was away modelling…Ryou! She could ask Ryou if she could stop with him for a few days. Sure he lived in an apartment but she didn't need mush room.

Just then someone poked their head around the door.

"You have a visitor!"

Tea sat up, wondering who it could be.

"Tea!"

"Hey, Mokuba! What are you doing here?" Tea smiled, glad to see him.

"Oh, I just wanted to check on you, make sure you were all right you know…" Mokuba grinned, "So what's up?"

"Nothing much" Tea shrugged.

"When are you allowed out of here?"

"As soon as I can find someone to let me crash at their place for a few days"

Mokuba's eyes lit up at once.

Yes! Big brother needs a girl in his life. Tea's perfect!

"Come stop with us!" Mokuba pranced around the room, as if on a sugar rush, "Please Tea say yes! We have enough room. you can have your own room, your own shower, enough space for everything…"

Tea tuned out.

It would be a good place, she thought, I mean they definitely have enough room, I mean you could my house in theirs about six times over, its huge!

There is just little problem. Kaiba.

"Er, Mokuba?" she interrupted the boys ramblings, "Will Kaiba agree to this?"

"Oh sure…" the evil grin on his face suggesting that he already had a solution to that problem.

Big brother won't know what's hit him…

Please don't hate me!
