Alright. I wrote this once and now I'm seriously ticked off that it didn't save! It just went back to what it was before I saved it! UGGH! This is seriously the most obnoxious thing in the world! Now I have to re-write everything I spent the past week thinking over, writing and editing! UGGHHH!

Everything's Relative

By Sailor Phoenix1997

Kisara leaned back in her chair and rocked slightly as the bell rang, signaling time for another class.

"Yugi's absent today," she commented, looking at the empty desk next to her and fingering the circular crystal around her neck.

"Yea," Jounochi said, "It's really unusual though. His grandpa must be sick, not him. He hasn't gotten sick in over three years." Kisara rolled her eyes.

"Well, I just hope Chouno-sensei isn't as much of a pain in the butt as she normally has been these past two weeks since I got here."

"You're lucky she's just our math teacher, not our History teacher," Jounochi said. Kisara smiled.

"Rise!" called a student as Chouno-sensei walked in with her red hair pulled back in a bun. All the students stood and bowed before taking their seats. Kisara crossed her legs and cocked one arm over the back of her chair like a boy.

"Ohayo everyone. Please open your books to last night's homework." Kisara casually opened her book and placed it on the desk before turning to the window. The clouds were just beginning to thinly blanket the blue skies. "Sennen-san?" Kisara turned to the teacher. "Please pay attention."

"Yes Sensei," she said. Her face remained facing forward but her eyes drifted back outside at the clouds. Her fingers wrapped around the crystal at her neck. "Clouds don't normally do that. Even if they're covering the skies they have different shades of gray and black. Not one color just covering the skies!" Kaiba looked over to the white-haired girl as she bit down on her lip.

"What's she getting so nervous about? It's not like this is a life or death situation. It's just homework."

All through class Kisara kept looking out the window with a look of dead-terror on her face. By the time Lunch came around, Kisara's bottom lip had turned red and slightly bruised from her constant chewing on it. Kaiba decided to talk to her when lunch came and maybe find out just what she was so nervous about.

Kisara slowly chewed on her sandwich under an old oak in the school courtyard with rice balls and sausages shaped like stars rest in her box's compartments. She wasn't even looking at her meal, just at the sky. She didn't seem to take notice in Kaiba nearing her. He opened his mouth to speak when she spoke.

"You can sit down Kaiba-kun," she said quietly.

"How'd you know it was me?" he asked, taking a seat.

"My family is always saying that when I stare off into space, I get telepathy or something like that. I call it good senses." She took another bite of her food. "But I believe there was something you wanted to ask me?"

"Yes. What's the matter? You seem nervous about something." She shrugged.

"Just worried about my dogs," Kisara said with a forced smile.

"Your dogs?" She nodded.

"I've actually got four. Two Mastiffs and two German Shepherds. I'm just worried if the girls are pregnant or not. They've been acting strangely for a short while. It's either that or my new in-law's pregnancy playing weird tricks on my head."

"Your in-law?"

"I never told you guys who I live with, did I?" Kaiba shook his head.

"You only told us it was for you to know and for us to know at another time."

"Alright then. I'll tell you because you seem to have the ability to keep your mouth shut. Don't tell Yugi or any of the others."

"I won't," Kaiba said. Kisara took a deep breath.

"I live with three men, seven years my superior, one is an accountant, the second is a cop and the third is a doctor. The accountant is married to a girl we met in San Francisco."

"Interesting."

"Would you like to meet them?" Kaiba gave her a surprised look as her hand landed gently on his. She snapped her hand back to her lap and placed the top of her lunchbox over the remains of her food. "They're always saying that I should bring a friend from school over for dinner. Any night's good if you like."

"We'll see. I think I'm free tonight but my brother's going to be busy."

"You have a brother?" Kaiba nodded.

"His name's Mokuba and he's seven years younger than I. After our parents died I told him I'd become his father for him. I managed to get us adopted by Kaiba Gozaboro by winning a game of chess. For a couple of years I went through tiresome training and studies with little rest. Had I not been doing it for Mokuba I probably would've just thrown in the towel the first night." Kisara smiled.

"SO he means a lot to you. Did you ever consider running away?"

"Every night. But Mokuba was too young to go far without an adult around. I'd have to go by myself. I couldn't leave Mokuba under our step-father's rule and have him suffer." Kisara leaned against the tree.

"You're much stronger than I was," she muttered.

"What?" Kisara almost slapped her mouth.

"Nothing. Never mind." She quickly stood up. "It's almost time for class to start again. Should I tell my family you're coming tonight?"

"I'll be there," Kaiba said as he stood up. Kisara pulled out a small sheet of paper and a pen, scribbled down a few notes and handed it to him.

"It's my address," she said with a smile before running back towards class. Kaiba sighed.

"She was lying about being worried about her dogs. I'm not stupid Kisara. I can tell the difference between what's real and not." Kaiba looked up towards the skies at the blanket of clouds. "I don't know what's got you so nervous but I'm going to figure out what."

Kaiba rang the doorbell later than night to a three-story, red house with a garden of roses growing up the walls. A chorus of barking dogs followed the bell's ring along with two feminine voices telling them to be quiet. Kisara opened the door and smiled.

"Kaiba-kun. I'm glad you're here," she said letting him in.

"Thank you." The front hall was painted gold and lead off in three directions. One lead to the garage, another to the kitchen and living room and the third lead to the rest of the house.

"Nee-sama's been excited to meet you. I hope you like beef fillet. And be careful when you step into the living room. That's where the dogs are," Kisara said with a smile. Instead of the school uniform she was dressed in a pair of faded denim jeans, a blue t-shirt and sapphire stud earrings. Kaiba nodded and followed her into the kitchen where a thin woman in her early twenties with shoulder-length brown hair, ocean-blue eyes and a small bump showing a new life on her stomach was leaning against a counter, watching a few pots on the stove.

"Hello," she said kindly, "You must be Kisara-chan's friend from school. She's told us so much about you. I doubt she's mentioned us though. She's always been secretive. My name's Teana. Nice to meet you," she said extending her hand from the pocket of her jeans and tugging on the hem of her red shirt.

"Pleasure." Kisara smiled.

"Well then, Nee-san, we'll leave you to your cooking and we'll check on the dogs." Kisara said taking Kaiba's arm and giving a light pull to his arm. Teana smiled kindly as the two left. Kisara lead him into the living room. Two honey-brown couches lined the walls and a few lamps rested on a table or shelf placed around the room. In the corner a grand piano awaited to be played. Laying down next to the couch was a pair of Mastiffs. One was brown with sliver flecks in his fur and the other was a tawny-gold color. Sitting on either side of the Mastiffs was a German Shepherd. The first and bigger one had a black spot shaped like a saddle on his back and one gold ear while the other was black. The female had two front paws with black socks and the back had stockings.

"Your in-law seems nice," Kaiba said taking a seat. The female Shepherd sniffed his hand and rested her head on his knee, waiting for a pet.

"She is. She was born and raised in San Francisco. She taught there for a while until she met my brother. After they got married we stayed in America until about two weeks ago."

"Interesting. And what about the rest of your family? Those three men you mentioned earlier. I would've thought they'd be home by now."

"They should be. They're probably outside talking. They tend to do that," Kisara said looking at the shelf closest to her. Suddenly a pair of tan hands clamped over her eyes and a chuckle rang in the room.

"Well, gonna introduce us to your friend little lady?" The German Shepherds jumped up and ran over to the man, hidden by the corner of the wall.

"Onii-chan, cut it out!" Kisara chuckled as she peeled the hands off.

"That's quite enough Tozokou," said a second male voice.

"Oh, come off it Atemu. Just let him have a little fun," said a third voice. Kisara smiled and rolled her eyes.

"Nii-sama, Onii-chan, Ani-kun. This is Kaiba Seto, one of the friends from school I told you about." The three men came out from behind the corner. One looked almost exactly like Yugi but had gold lightning bolts in his hair and a slight touch of crimson instead of violet around the edge. Around his neck was a gold crystal just slightly curved. He was dressed all in black and had a coat draped over his shoulders and on his ring finger was a gold wedding band.

The second man had tanned skin with a scar running down his right cheek to his jaw. Two more scars intersected with the first under his lavender eyes. He was dressed in a dark suit with a nightstick strapped to his side. He began petting the German Shepherds lovingly. Around his neck was a blue crystal, also slightly curved.

The third man had platinum-blond hair, most of it sticking up all over the place but some of it was around his neck. He was dressed in a dark dress shirt with black dress pants. He had a red crystal on the cord around his neck with the end rolled into itself. His eyes were violet and his skin was slightly tanned.

"Kaiba-kun, I'd like you to meet my older brothers, Atemu," she gestured to the Yugi look-alike, "Tozokou," she gestured to the scarred man, "and Yami," she finished with the blond.

A/N: Now how's that! I brought the Yamis back! Next chapter we'll have the story behind the boys and why they weren't in the first chapter. Please review! The more reviews I get, the faster I'll post.
