Chapter 6- Mokuba's Fighter
-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-
Rebecca crossed her arms and tapped her foot as she overheard two men talking about her. She rolled her eyes at their comment about how they came to get rich quick by using her ability. However, she wasn't an easy girl to take. She had an attitude, probably the only slave in the center that had an attitude.
She noticed the two men appeared to be old. One man had brown eyes and the other had hazel eyes. They both had black hair, but you could see the some white hairs showing through.
"Even though she will make both of you rich instantly, the problem is getting her to make the crystals. She won't make them for anyone. And let me warn you two gentlemen, she forms her crystals into very sharp weapons. That brat has an attitude problem and can be very feisty, so watch out," she heard one of the assistants tell them.
Rebecca looked to see who was speaking to the old folks and noticed Tristan smirking at her. In return, she gave him a death glare and clenched her hand into a fist. A small, crystal dagger formed using a small of amount of energy from her body. Just when she was ready to throw it at Tristan, he shook his head. He put his finger on his neck and slowly dragged it across to the other side. Rebecca's eyes widened and she dropped the dagger.
Both men heard a clanging noise and looked down to see what looked like glass shards. Then Tristan walked away, leaving Rebecca terrified.
"She made a crystal! That's it! I'm buying her right now!" the man with brown eyes yelled, "Guard, bring her to me."
"No, I will pay twice as much!" the other man exclaimed.
The brown-eyed man looked at him with a shocked expression. He knew he couldn't pay that much for a slave and walked away.
"I miss you, Mokuba," Rebecca said quietly, hoping no one heard her.
The hazel-eyed man heard her, though, and became livid. The chamber door opened and both men walked to her.
"What did you say, brat?" he asked rudely as he slapped Rebecca across her face.
"What's it to you? It's none of your business," she said angrily.
"I make it my business. Now, you just mentioned Mokuba. Don't tell me you are talking about Mokuba Kaiba? Do you how many men hate him and his older brother? I loathe him," he said as he grabbed Rebecca's wrist.
"No!" she screamed when she heard footsteps walk into her chamber.
Both of them looked up to see a guy with long, dark gray hair, and gray eyes. He looked to be about 5'8", and he was wearing all black. Rebecca looked at his eyes. He smirked at her as he grabbed the old man's wrist.
"Let her go," he warned, twisting the old man's wrist.
"Ouch!" he exclaimed and quickly let go of Rebecca's wrist.
Rebecca rubbed her wrist with her other hand as the guy threw the old man out. He turned around and simply grinned at her.
Rebecca didn't understand why he was smiling like that, but he did look familiar. His silly expression was reminded her of a certain Kaiba. He does look like an older version…of…Mokuba? She blinked a few times, just to see if her eyes were deceiving her.
"Mokuba?" she asked hopefully.
"Rebecca!" he said cheerfully as he wrapped his arms around her. "I went back to the orphanage center and asked for you. One of the employees told me that you were a slave. I'm here to take you away from this pathetic place!"
"Mokuba… I missed you, too," she replied as she felt her eyes began to water up. Rebecca buried her face into his chest.
"Hey, don't cry. I'm here and you are going to be mine. You will no longer suffer in pain and sorrow," he said to her and raised her chin up.
He smiled at her and revealed the key in his hand. She smiled and hugged him thankfully. The collar came off quickly as he unlocked it. Mokuba took it and threw it at the old geezer. Rebecca chuckled and touched her neck.
"I'm free," she said to Mokuba as he smiled down upon her.
"Actually, you are in a way, but you are mine," he said to her and smirked.
She blushed and replied, "I wouldn't mind being yours at all."
"So, tell me. How did you end up in a place like this when you still have your wings?" Mokuba asked, still holding onto Rebecca.
She gulped at his question. Remembering the day she was taken here was something to be forgotten. After Rebecca found out what happened to Serenity, she was immediately taken here.
"To tell you the truth, all the slaves here have their wings, even if they are ripped or torn. So, tell me what is going on here? It doesn't make any sense if the law clearly states if your wings are removed, you are immediately a slave," Mokuba asked her, wanting the truth.
"That's only part of the law. There are other laws regarding becoming a slave, like it's only girls that become slaves. There is no such thing as a man slave. For example, if there is a homeless girl, but she still has her wings, she will be taken here. Another way to get in is if the girl committed a crime or crimes," she said truthfully to him.
Mokuba looked into her sky blue eyes.
"But that doesn't explain how you got in. You were living in at the orphanage center, but you were taken here when you were four years old. Is there something you are not telling me, Rebecca?" he asked, waiting to hear her answer.
Rebecca's eyes widened. She knew she couldn't lie to him. A tear fell from her eye, making Mokuba's heart sunk with sadness.
"You didn't do anything wrong…did you?" he asked when he saw another tear fall from her eyes.
Rebecca shook her head. She wiped her tears away and looked up at him.
"Sorry. It looks like you want the memories to be forgotten. I'm sorry for bringing the question up," he replied gently as she buried her face into his chest again.
He scooped her up in his arms. "Come, it's time to go home," he said to her happily.
"Home?" she asked confusedly.
"Yes, home. My home is now your home," he replied as she smiled at him and kissed him on the lips.
Mokuba blinked a few times and kissed her back. She was finally going home with him.

Tristan watched Rebecca go upstairs with Mokuba. He laughed harshly, and slowly turned his attention to Mai.

I'm so sorry that this came out late! I have been playing K.H. II a lot, but now I'm back. Also, for some reason, didn't let me upload on my computer so I had to use another computer.
