Please enjoy! No boring talking this time!
"Excuse me, I'd like to use the computer." Yuugi called to the lady at the counter quietly. She nodded and tapped the notebook with a pen. Yuugi signed it and smiled at the woman sweetly, thanking her as he rejoined his friends. Well, more or less.
"Okay Seto-san, you can use this one over here."
He nodded and followed the small teen into a computer cubical, Atem trailing behind. The brunette sat down at the desk and went straight to work. His long, slim fingers flew across the keyboard as Atem addressed Yuugi;
"Little one, let us leave him to work in peace. Would you mind showing me around?"
The small teen looked up, then smiled.
"I'd love to, Atemu-san!" He replied, leaving Seto to work as they left. Now it was time to get serious.
The words;
'Sugoroku Muto' had been typed into the box and searched as Seto waited. He had hacked into the government computers and was now researching the old man Yuugi called Grandpa, and now his information was on the screen for him to view.
'Muto Sugoroku; Age 73, Hight 152 cm, background consists of one son (Whereabouts unknown), one grandson Muto Yuugi, currently legal guardian of Jounouchi Katsuya, attended collage(Domino Community Collage, AS_BS- business major.) owns local game shop; "Game Shop."
Seto read this and decided to click on Katsuya's name, leading him to the blondes own page;
'Jounouchi Katsuya; Age 16, Hight 170 cm, background consists of one sister, Kawai Shizuka, split in divorce. Father, Jounouchi Gorou, currently under investigation for abuse. Mother, Kawai Ouno, split in divorce. Under the influence of gangs from age 9, influence discontinued after age 15, hospitalized 48 times_6 surgeries_ most unpaid. Legal guardian; Muto Sugoroku.'
The brunette frowned at what he saw, reading it over once more before moving onto the mutt's father.
'Jounouchi Gorou; Age 45, Hight 190 cm, background consists of no siblings, deceased parents, one marriage_divorce_two children one son, Jounouchi Katsuya, one daughter, Kawai Shizuka. Dropped out of high school, never attained proper education, currently $136,854,330.00 in debt, several unpaid hospital bills, accused of abuse(2) and under surveillance_ not in custody_'
He stopped reading. Not in custody? That meant that he had been released after the mini-Atem called the police? That made no sense, he had found the blonde jumping out a window and running like hell. There should have been his blood on the window, if not from what he saw, in the apartment. Maybe the man wasn't as stupid as he looked, ambling out of the room after the mutt was gone. He must have cleaned everything before the police came... if they even went. It said he had been 'accused' twice. He logged off the government site, making sure to cover his tracks as the expert hacker he was, before logging off the computer. Seto stood and stretched, looking around for Atem and his mini-clone when someone else caught his eye. There was no doubt, he had seen the picture in the description. Jounouchi Gorou was here, in this library, and clearly not under surveillance, as he was stalking rather maliciously toward an unexacting blonde. A blonde Seto knew. A blonde who should've been home in bed.
Seto watched in horror as the blonde flipped a page in a book casually, not noticing the oncoming danger. He had to do something, anything, to save the blonde. Quickly, he strode ahead, past Gorou, and slung the blonde over his shoulder.
"C'mon, mutt. Its time I took you home, you shouldn't even be out of bed." Seto said, loud enough for both Atem and his clone, as well as Gorou, to hear. Katsuya began to wriggle in Seto's grip.
"Let go of me, Kaiba!"
"And if I refuse?"
"I'll scream."
Seto frowned before clamping his hand over the blondes mouth.
"Now you listen to me, puppy. If you even try to scream, i'll just let that bastard father of yours have you. Understand?" he whispered. The blonde stiffened.
"I thought he was in jail?"
"Apparently not. He's supposed to be on surveillance, but either he lost them, or they don't care. Besides, I'll be damned if I let him beat you again..." the last part was said mainly to himself, but katsuya heard it.
"How did you know that?" Jounouchi's voice was cold.
"I was there when you jumped out the window. I saw it all, and frankly, I'm surprised you made it as far as you did."
"You brought yuugi to me, didn't you?"
"Not quite, he went looking for me and found me next to you."
Jounouchi was about to ask more when something caught his attention.
"Kaiba, we seem to have picked up an extra tail."
Seto's nod was only noticed by the muscle tensing in his neck before the brunette spoke;
"An extra tail? I do believe, puppy, that an extra means there is already one."
"Of course, I was referring to yours Kaiba."
"Can you walk, Katsuya?"
"Yeah, I can walk."
"Good, when I put you down, I want you to go straight back to the Game Shop, lock the door and wait for me. I have to go back for that bastard Atem and your little friend."
The blonde nodded, maybe Kaiba wasn't so bad... maybe. A slight squeeze to his midsection was all the warning he got before he was set on the ground and Seto turned and ran back toward the library. Jounouchi watched him until he was out of sight before following suit and running towards where he knew the Game Shop was. His sneakers hit the pavement hard each time he took a stride, and it was taking it's toll. His wound was beginning to hurt, and the other scratches were starting to bleed, but he didn't care. He couldn't stop running until he reached... there! Jounouchi sprinted towards the strange, colorful building when a black car outside stopped him. That couldn't be... could it?
"Seto!"
"Seto-san!"
Said brunette stopped and looked around. He was sure he'd heard his cousin's, along with his little clone's, voice.
"Why were you running? You went right past us!"
He turned around to see both of them smiling happily behind him. They weren't in danger, they weren't hurt, they were just strolling around! Seto's fist met the side of Atem's face, hard, sending him sprawling backward a few steps. Yuugi's face was shocked.
"I ran all the way back here, worried because I thought you were in danger! And you were out on a stroll!? Are you aware that Katsuya's father was in there!? That we were being followed! That I put him in danger to-" Seto froze, his body cold. He'd left Katsuya alone, in danger, for no reason. He'd known Atem could take care of himself, but he'd gone back anyways. What if he had already been caught, or hurt? Ignoring Atem's shouting and Yuugi's stare, he ran back towards where he had left Katsuya with three words on his mind; Please be okay!
