Chp.5: The Crucial Date.

Kagome was standing in front of the Crystal Tower just as she promised. Checking out was proving to be difficult. The doctors were amazed at how fast she recovered and wanted to make sure that everything else was in place, and even though she was 12 minutes late…

He wasn't even there waiting for her. Did she miss him?

Wiping out her cell phone, Kagome dialed his number and he picked up on the third ring.

"Higurashi, are you that desperate to see me?" Kagome rolled her eyes and sighed impatiently.

"where are you? I thought we had a date." She heard Seto chuckle and she grew even more impatient.

"If you must know, I have been here since 1:50. And if you turn 90 degrees to your right, counter clockwise you will see that I am sitting on a bench adjacent to the statue."

Kagome turned and just as he said, he was sitting there, cross legged and waved at her. Smiling Kagome bounced over toward him. Kaiba was smirking at her the entire walk over to him. He was sitting there watching Kagome get annoyed because she thought he wasn't there and, dare he say it but…

She looked cute standing there pouting.

The outfit she was wearing was simple and classy at the same time. She was wearing a grey corset top that had lace around the top so she can keep a little ounce of dignity and to prevent her from having to beat down some random pervert. Black leggings with grey designs on them curled all the way down to where her high heeled combat boots started.

She had chains hanging around her waist and had a simple silver chain around her neck. She wore a pink jewel around her neck that brought out all of the dark colors on her as well. The sway of her hips as she walked towards him had him mesmerized and her hair, which was pulled up in a high ponytail with some hair out to frame her face, swayed in the opposite direction of her hips.

Kagome was nervous as she took each step towards the smirking Kaiba. He looked ever so handsome sitting there like he didn't have a care in the world. He was a loose white tank top over some biker pants with multiple straps along the legs and had a matching Jacket. He wore his normal Duel card necklace but also had a silver pendant and simple boots. "Aren't you hot in all of that Kaiba?" Kagome asked when she got in front of him. "And yet you are in a corset and tight pants. One would think that you had actually put some thought into your outfit Higurashi."

Sputtering, Kagome was about to say something smart but decided against it. "Come one, I want to see parts of domino I never seen before!" Kaiba nodded and they walked off. During the entire walk the two of them discussed politics and each other's jobs. Kagome listening intently to everything Kaiba told her and he did the same for her. He actually found himself laughing about a family story she told him. "Where are we going by the way?" Kaiba smirked and when they stopped in front of a building and Kagome's jaw dropped he knew he did something good.

The previous night, he had Souta tell him everything his sister liked and disliked food wise, place wise…what her favorite things were and all of that. So, the very first thing he did was take her to the domino theater were they were having a back-to-back horror matinee affair where they were playing the original Texas chainsaw massacre and Black Christmas.

Grinning from ear to ear, they walked right into the movies and grabbed the seats in the middle. During the entire movie, Kagome was making her own renditions of the movie scenes and lines that had Kaiba and most of the other movie watchers laughing or chuckling.

Then, she started throwing popcorn around the place which caused the biggest popcorn fight in history. The two of them left the movies picking popcorn out of each other's hair. After cleaning themselves up the two off them purchased some fresh bakery rolls to eat before heading off to their next destination. "Wow, bakery rolls and old horror movies. What's next?" Kaiba only shook his head and pointed to the largest Arcade Kagome ever saw. "Mokuba actually runs this arcade. He wanted to prove to me hat he can run his own business with out my help." Kagome nodded at this bit of information as they walked in side.

Rushing over towards a machine to get some tokens, Kaiba stopped her. He handed her a green and red card and informed her that this was an exclusive card where they could play any game unlimitedly. Kagome stared off slowly by beating high scores on frogger, pac-man, pinball machines and donkey kong before stepping it up a notch and jumped over to play Soul Caliber II. "Anyone think they can beat me? I rule this arcade!" Kagome looked around and saw some kids standing around upset and some even crying. "What's your wager?" Kagome called out.

Everyone around the game turned to see Kagome standing behind him holding out a wad of cash. "Now were talking. Tell you what. If I win, I get the money and you got to be my girl friend. If you win, I'll give these twerps back there money. Four games." Kagome smirked and swiped her card.

Each game was played in rounds of three with unlimited time.

Playing as Ivy, Kagome beat him three rounds to none.

The next game they played was King of Fighter's 2002. With a team of Iori, Kyo and Teri, Kagome defeated him 2 out of three rounds. "Hey girlie. The name's Dane, I propose that for any game, you have to use only female characters and I male ones." Some of the kids started arguing. "You know that girl character's take less damage out! That's cheating!" "Deal," Kagome said.

So as a rematch team consisting of Mai, Whip and Kula Diamond, she won all three rounds. Getting even more nervous he added, "And no weapons!"

So AGAIN! With another team of Orochi Shermie, Leona, and Vanessa, Kagome won again.

Moving on to the next game Mortal Combat 4 Kagome actually lost because he constantly kept using the same attacks. With the scores now 2 games to 1, they had one more to play. This time it was Street fighter. Kagome decided to let him win this game just so they can keep playing together. He was fun but was a sore loser. With them even, 2 to 2, they decided to let Guitar Hero II. The song of choice was for Kagome to pick on the highest rating possible.

Kagome looked through the list and selected "Killing in the Name" by Rage against the machine. "I'll have you know that I play in a band so this ain't nothing compared to what I can do on stage!" Kagome just nodded at him and the song started. Both of them moved with expert skill as the song played on. Sadly, Dane lost. Kagome was able to activate her Star power quicker than him and used that time wisely.

Defeated, Dane started handing out the other kid's money back to them. "You're a talented game player. I've just been playing longer that you have. You should try and be nicer to these kids. If you were I might have decided to date you off the bat." She kissed him on the check and Seto and Kagome walked out of the arcade. Then it was off to the Mew café. "They have the best strawberry shortcake here." He informed her.

Her face lit up like a 50,000 watt light bulb. "really!?" the two were seated and a waitress came around and took their orders, while flirting hard with Kaiba the entire time. Kagome started getting annoyed.

Finally, the waitress just flat out disrespected Kagome by dropping her tray of cake in front of her and flirting with Kaiba, all the while poking her but in her face. So Kagome took her fork and stuck the girl right in the butt. "Hey!" Kagome stood up and got in the girls face. "Do you think you can take you and your trampy, bow legged, man chin self away from me and my date?" the girl glared down at Kagome and smacked her. The room got quiet and the manager came out. "Did you just hit me?" Kagome said reaching up slowly and grabbed the girl by the neck.


"50,000 dollars worth of damage;" Kaiba said with a hint of amazement in his voice. "Glad he decided not to press charges hunh? I mean, I was provoked; I could have sued him anyway. He gave me a free cake." Kagome said eating one of the strawberries. Kaiba was watching her for a while when he decided to do something.

When Kagome scooped up another strawberry Kaiba took her hand and sucked it from off her finger. Kagome turned bright red. "Seto." She whispered. He smirked up at her. "I love it when you call me by my first name." Kaiba started prowling towards her causing her to back up against a wall. Kaiba place his hands on either side of her face and traced his lips against hers. "I want you Kagome. I'm going to be blunt about it so there are no mistakes.

"When I first met you, angry and fired up, you began to haunt my thoughts. I had dreams about you, and thoughts. When we danced together I wanted to pull you to me and never let you go. When you were kidnapped I worked long and hard to try and track you. I never EVER felt this way before. You may not feel the same but in time you will. Until then, let no other touch you." Then he grabbed her hand and pulled her onto there last destination which was an Italian restaurant.

The two ate and Kagome told him some more stories about Souta and her life back in Tokyo. "When my parents died, one after the other separated between 12 years I was devastated. My brother found me and took me under his wing and helped me out. He's not my brother by birth but we were close friends in out youth." Kaiba nodded. "The same goes for me and Mokuba almost. Our parents died when we were young. Our family took are money and ditched us at a orphanage." Kaiba continued to tell her his story. When he was done he realized that Kagome was quiet. He looked up to see that she was crying.

She was crying for him. "Sorry; I'm emotional from the medicine from earlier."

He didn't buy it for a second. but he still doesn't understand how he is telling her so much stuff about himself. There was somethign calling about her.

Leaving the restaurant Kagome and Seto began heading to her house when Kagome got cold. "Did the temperature drop like 25 degrees?" she asked. "Cold?" he asked her. She nodded. Instead of giving her his jacket, he brought her close to him so they could share it. "I never knew you could be a hopeless romantic." Kaiba looked at her and agreed. "You might as well enjoy it while you can. I normally don't either so this is a surprise for the both of us." Kagome laughed and then froze in mid step. Kaiba touched her and her skin felt clammy and cold.

"Kagome?"

And she fainted.


What could have happened?
