Chapter Two: Confusion
"Hey Wheeler! Take a look at this!!" The man waved the blonde over.
"What is it? What did ya find?"
"Look!" Joey faced the direction his friend was pointing and let out a surprised gasp.
"What the hell? How da heck did he get out here?!"
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Come on now open your eyes." A soft voice spoke. Kaiba gently opened his eyelids, then shut them immediately from the blaring light. "Sorry 'bout that. The lights gone."
Trying again Kiaba opened them more slowly blinking a few times to get them to adjust. When his eyesight fully recovered he was met face to face with an old man. He had a short trimmed beard and slightly rosy cheeks. A pair of small spectacles rested on his crooked nose.
"Wha? Where am I? What happened?" asked Kaiba groggily. He wasn't quite comprehending what was going on.
"Well I was hoping you could tell me. It's not everyday that we find a man alone on earth." The doctor said adjusting his spectacles. "And as for where you are you are on the planet mars, in the city Kinotsip, and in the hospital, Kinotsip hospital."
Kaiba gave the man a look of confusion. Did he just say mars? Swearing he didn't here the man right he said the only thing that he could think of. "What?"
"Oh dear." Was the doctor's reply. "I believe you've been out in the heat far too long."
Kaiba was even more confused. The last thing he remembered was talking to that confounded angel and then disappearing into a sea of darkness. There was no 'heat' or 'mars' involved.
"Hold on, what's going on?!" Kaiba recovering to his old self wanted answers. Nothing was making any sense. "What happened? What on God's green Earth are you talking about?"
"God's Earth hasn't been green for many years…" the Doctor mumbled.
"What?" Kaiba cried bewildered. This was the first time in his life he had ever been this confused.
"Alright, let me see here. Do you remember anything? Anything at all? Tell me what was the last thing you remember?" Let's see he remembered he died, then was stuck in limbo, and then talked to an angel.
"I can't remember anything." He stated flatly. "Now how the hell did I wind up here?" The doctor sighed and rubbed his temples.
"Are you sure you can't remember anything? Not even the tiniest little thing?" The doctor sounded desperate. Kaiba just glared. "Alright this is all I know. You were found lying in the sand on Earth. A couple of scavengers found you. My hypothesis is that you did something to make somebody mad and they kidnapped and dumped you off on Earth leaving you for dead. Do you get what I'm talking about?"
"What planet are you from?" It was meant as sarcasm but the response was totally unexpected.
"From Venus actually. Why do you ask?" Kaiba looked at him in bewilderment.
"This… you don't make any sense. Last time I checked we were all still living on Earth. We haven't even tried to colonize the moon! And you're telling me you're from Venus! You're crazy you old coot!!" Kaiba roared. He didn't realize he had jumped off the bed in his fury.
"Sheesh, what's all the ruckus?" The door to the room had opened to reveal a man with dirty blonde hair. Kaiba's breath hitched in his throat. It was a spitting image of Jonouchi. But that was impossible. He had died at the age of thirty in a car wreck.
"I'm afraid this man here has either amnesia or has gone completely loony." The doctor replied to the blonde in frustration.
"Dat sucks." Kaiba glared. This Katsuya looked and talked like the old one. But he noticed there was something different. His eye color wasn't brown, but green.
"So what do we do with him?" Kaiba turned to see another man next to the Jonouchi Katsuya version two he had overlooked. Kaiba was surprised again. This one looked exactly like Otogi! But he was young not the age he was supposed to be. As Kaiba looked closer he realized once again it was the eye color that was different. Instead of green (A/N I think it was green correct me if I'm wrong.) it was an almond brown.
"We gave him a brain scan while he was unconscious and it showed no signs of brain trauma. We also did a blood analysis and a chromosome count and it all came back normal. There was no signs of drug use which leaves me to conclude that…. hell I have no idea. He's a walking unknown case of amnesia.
"Does he at least know his name?" The black haired man asked curiously.
"Seto Kaiba." He replied rubbing his temples. The three men jumped obviously forgetting he was still present in the room. All this confusion was giving him a headache. He vowed if he ever saw that angel again he was going to strangle his scrawny little neck!
"The name sounds familiar. We'll run it through the star system database to see if we can find out where you're from and who your family is. In the mean time we need to find a place for you to stay."
"Oh, we'll take him!!" The man who looked like Otogi offered excitedly.
"What!? Duke, are you crazy?" Joey cried. "Excuse us for a moment." He grabbed Duke by the collar of his jacket and dragged him out of the hospital room. "Are you outta' your mind?" Joey questioned as soon as the door shut. "We don't know the first thing about this guy and you want to take him in!"
"Is that a crime?" Duke replied innocently.
"He could be a serial killer or an undercover star society spy! Or he could be a ghost who came back to get revenge after what happened to his planet! Did ya think of that? Huh?" Joey cried throwing his arms wildly in the air to exaggerate his point.
"You watch too many horror films, Wheeler."
"I'm just sayin' this guy could be dangerous!"
"Come on Wheeler, think about it. You know we need another member for the team. This guy's the perfect candidate."
"What happens when they find out where he's from? He'll just leave and go back to his home! We'll have to find a new person all over again anyways. I say we better be safe then sorry and find that someone else who will end up staying…permanently." Joey spoke stubbornly.
"Joey, you know as well as I do that it was most likely the star society who ditched him on the planet in the first place. And if that's true then they wont find a single trace that this guy ever existed. Besides we'll use him as bait while we wait till we find that 'other' person. "
'I still don't trust him." Joey growled.
"Just give it a chance." Duke replied.
Once again the two reentered the hospital room. Kaiba was sitting back on the bed with a contemplative look on his face and the doctor sitting on a metal chair mulling over his notes. "We'll take him!" Duke announced. Kaiba looked at the man in bewilderment.
"No way in hell." Kaiba replied coldly.
"Aw, come on why not? You don't have anywhere to go, no job, no known family, come on what do you got to lose?"
"My sanity." He mumbled.
"He's right Mr. Kaiba you need somewhere to stay. It's this or we have to hand you over to the Star society police and they'll take care of you." Kaiba studied the three of them with a scrutinizing gaze. The logical choice was to go to the police, but something told him going with 'Wheeler' and 'Duke' was the better option. Something about how their eyes shifted to the floor every time they spoke of the Star society made him feel uneasy.
"We'll even give you a job!" Wheeler blurted out. Even he wouldn't send his worst enemy to the Star Society. Kaiba locked his icy eyes with each of the three men, making them shift uneasily from his cold glare.
"Fine, I'll go with them." He was going with instinct which, for him was not natural, but he figured these two people where at least a little familiar to him even if was just in their appearance.
"Great! Then put some pants on and we'll get out of this joint." Duke answered and walked out the door with Wheeler.
Confused (again), Kaiba looked down and a very light blush graced his cheeks. To his embarrassment, the only thing he was wearing was a bright pink flowery hospital gown that reached to the middle of his knees. Peering up he gave the doctor a look that reminded you of a wolf about to eat it's prey.
The doctor suddenly realizing his predicament slowly inched toward the door. "Uh….about that. You see w-we've been…uh…v-very busy lately and…uh...heh… w-we had no more blue."
"Pants would be nice." Kaiba growled menacingly.
"I'll go get them!" The doctor dashed out the door.
Later, as the three men left the hospital Wheeler looked about slightly confused.
"Huh, the doctor didn't come to say goodbye." He pointed out.
"He had another patient." Kaiba replied innocently. Wheeler nodded in response, but he couldn't help but notice a small smirk on the amnesic man's face.
