A/N: Hey guys i'm back boy was the first chappy kinda horrible i'm so sorry Karina it's the only way I knew how to make this workout
Karina: -in Kaiba's arms- It's ok my Dragon is right here
Seto: -holds her tightly- No one's going to harm you
Me: Awww,isn't that kute anyway let's get moving with thy next chappy,by the way Kimi is the only one who knows about the abuse Karina's father gives her.
After crying her eyes out Karina got up fixed herself and headed on downstairs. "It's about time you woke up fix me some breakfest i'm very hungry" Yoshio barked at her. "I'm sorry father,there isn't any food left I didn't get a chance to go shopping yesterday" Karina braced herself for the punishment that would soon come. Now Yoshio glared and grabbed her arm roughly "What were you doing yesterday that was more important than buying me food!" He snapped again.
Stricken with fear she had to lie. "I was held up at school,I tried telling you last night but you slapped me before I could" Karina held her arm where he grabbed her. "I'm tired of your excuses,Your to go to the market today you got that ya little rat" All she could do was just nod and quickly headed out the front door fighting back the tears.
Yugi and his friends were walking down the street when they saw Kimi heading their direction. "Yo Kimi over here" Joey called out waving his hand. "Hey guys what's up?" She asked wind blowing through her hair. "Have you heard from Karina at all today?" It was Yugi's turn to ask a question. Looking to the ground Kimi shook her head "No I haven't I hope she's alright" If only that were the truth but sadly it wasn't.
Karina was on the opposite side of the street looking around when she caught sight of her friends. "Kimi,guys" She ran on over to them with a fake smile on her face. "There you are Kari-chan,we was worried sick bout you" Joey gave his friend a gentle warm hug. "I'm fine Joe-kun really I just need to pick up some food while i'm out today" Karina said sweetly trying to hide the agony in her voice.
"Ya want us to go with ya?" Karina shook her head at Joey's question. "Nah,I like to shop by myself I better get going though don't wanna waste to much time" That said she headed down the street and towards the market. "Karina he did it again didn't he?" Kimi asked herself as she watched her best friend/sister dissappearing around a corner.
So Karina was now in the market picking up eggs,bacon,sasuage and whatever else her father liked. "I swear that man eats like a hog it's disgusting" She was thinking outloud to herself not noticing the little black haired boy bumping into her. "Mokuba it's you,it's good to see such an adorable little face again" She giggled watching his face turn a light shade of pink.
"It's not that adorable" Mokuba looked away embarrassed. "Oh come now,I'm surprised all the ladies aren't fawning over you because of it,I know I would be." That right there made him turn even darker. "There you are Moki" That same calm smooth voice came from behind the younger brother.
"Didn't I tell you to stay near me where I can see you" The older teen patted his little brother on the head. "Sorry Seto I got bored and decided to wander around,and besides look who I found" He pointed up at Karina. "Well we meet again Karina" Kaiba spoke so soft and gentle to her not like Yoshio did. She couldn't explain it but whenever Kaiba spoke her name or just plain spoke to her she felt warm inside like all the pain and suffer she's been through just melted away.
"Are you alright?" The brunette asked waving a hand in her face. "Huh wha yeah i'm fine" Karina shook her head laughing. "What brings you here?" Kaiba gave her a quizzical look. "Well you see I like looking around for new types of dishes to try at home." It was a lie that even a blind person could see through.
There was a brief moment of silence before a strange growling noise could be heard coming from Karina's stomach. "Have you eaten anything at all this morning you seem pretty hungry" Seto had two fingers on his chin. "There wasn't much food left,So I had to skip breakfest this morning" Kaiba wouldn't hear of this anymore. "Your coming to my mansion for a decent meal,while I take her out to the limo" He gently took her hand leading her out the store and into the limo.
The three got in the car. "Why are you doing this?" Karina had to ask. "Because i'm not going to stand by and watch you starve yourself anymore" This time his voice was stern and serious. "Why is he caring about me like this? I don't get it" Karina thought staring into those eyes she loved.
Kaiba had a small smile on his face. "Oh crap!,I have to get home to my father I didn't make him breakfest yet" Karina just now noticed what the time was. "He's going to kill me i'm so screwed" Mokuba looked concerned "Why doesn't he make his own?" Was the question the little boy asked "Well Moki you see he likes my cooking says it reminds him of my mother's,so that's why I do the cooking for him" Karina gave the boy a pat on the head.
The limo had finally pulled into the driveway of Kaiba's mansion. "Wow Kaiba it's so big,you rich people get everything" Karina joked stepping out of the car with Mokuba. "You might think that,but in all truth rich people don't get everything" Kaiba led her into the house.
She had to admire the beauty and quality of the house. It was much bigger and more spacious then the crap house she was living in with her father. "Please make yourself at home and i'll prepare something nice for you to eat" Kaiba offered her to sit on the couch. "Thank you Kaiba" She replied sitting down. "My bro's the best cook around" Mokuba grinned plopping down next to Karina.
"Oh really now I'll be the judge of that" She smirked back at the boy. After a couple of minutes went by Kaiba came back out with a tray full of food and boy did it smell good. "Wow,it all looks so good are you sure I can eat this?" Karina looked up at him with a pleading look in her eyes. He took a couple of plates and set them down infront of her. "Yes now eat as much as you want" There was a twinkle in her eyes as she literally attacked the food infront of her.
"Hey Moki can you go upstairs for a bit,I wanna talk with Karina alone" Mokuba nodded his head in response and ran up to his room. Now that he thought about it looking at Karina she had long silky hair that was a beautiful blue color that reminded him of the ocean. Those eyes they were as red as rubies that held a hint of sadness and a longing to be cared for. She had to be the most beautiful girl he had ever laid eyes on.
As he continued to stare Kaiba could feel the heat rising in his cheeks. Seto Kaiba was actually blushing which was a rare occasion for him never once has this man blushed no matter how many girls he's seen. "Karina if you don't mind me asking what happened to your mother?" He gave her a moment before answering.
Karina gave a long sigh before telling him. "Well when I was still just a kid my mother fell very ill and was bed ridden in the end that illness turned out to be the death of her" It didn't hurt as much when she told him. "I'm so sorry Karina,I couldn't even begin to understand what you went through back then,but if there's anything I can do please tell me" Kaiba was going to make sure that this girl would be happy and that no one will hurt her.
It was too bad he didn't know about the bastard of a father she had. "Thank you Kaiba,but I must be going now my father will be angry with him if i'm not home" Karina excused herself and made it to the door when she was stopped by Kaiba's hand on her shoulder. "Please stay with me for just a little longer"
"I'm sorry Kaiba I can't I need to get home now,thanks for the food it was delecious" After saying that she dashed out the door and ran down the streets back to her house. "Something isn't right here,I need to find out what's going on with her and her father" He quietly followed after her something inside was telling him that Karina was going to need his help.
"Damn that useless child,I told her to go pick up some food and she can't even do that I swear i'm going to hurt her" Yoshio got up from the couch beer bottle in hand he headed out the door and down the sidewalk. "Shit shit shit,i'm so late he's going to kill me for sure I know it" Karina ran down her street hoping not to see him. Unfortunately for her there he was walking down the sidewalk with a pissed off look on his face
She stopped running and walked up to him. "F-father what are you doing?" Terror strick her once again and she was frozen in her tracks as Yoshio stepped closer and closer to her. "I'm looking for you,and where's my food you little brat didn't I tell you to go shopping,You can't do anything right!" He yelled grabbing her by the hair. "I'm sorry father it's just I was so hungry and went off to find myself something to eat that I forgot to buy your breakfest" She began explaining wincing at the pain he was causing her.
Yoshio through her forwards and knocked her to the ground. "Did I say you could eat" He kicked her in the side most likely leaving the biggest bruise Karina has ever had. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she held her side wishing someone anyone would come and help her
Kaiba just so happened to be watching the scene fists shaking in anger. "Hey I suggest you step away from the girl" In an instance Kaiba was standing over Karina glaring at her father. "This little rat needs to be punished for disobeying me" Yoshio went to punch Kaiba in the face but ended up getting kneed in the stomach.
Picking him up by the neck Kaiba gave him a glare that would make just about anyone run. "Listen to me you filthy piece of trash i'm not going to stand here and watch you beat such an amazing beautiful girl she doesn't deserve this I swear you make me sick I tried not to get involved but everytime I looked into those eyes of her's all I saw was nothing but the pain and suffer you made her go through,All the built up tears she had to hide and that fake smile" His grip around Yoshio's neck tightened causing him to cough.
Throwing him to the ground Kaiba turned to help Karina up. "Your going to be staying with me from now on alright" Karina actually smiled a real smile. "Thank you Kaiba thank you so much" She clung to his back crying tears of joy. "I'll make sure this piece of trash doesn't come anywhere near you again" He took Karina's hand and kissed it gently.
This was the beginning of a new start for Karina she was finally going to be away from the hell. And it was all thanks to this man she was clinging to. Seto Kaiba had finally saved her
