This chapter is the second day of the Tournament and revolves around Team Yugi and Team Seto joining up since I had to do that eventually and I didn't want to do a Lumis and Umbra repeat. Oh yeah Joey returns in this chapter as a duelist but Tea won't be showing up since I decided against it. Oh and I'm throwing in a dramatic event! Anyways, on with the show!
A Sticky Situation; The Alliance Formed!
It was the second day of the tournament and after saying good bye and thank you to Grandpa Moto; Mana, Mahad, and Yugi were off and ready to go but were overjoyed at who met them at the gate to the tournament grounds. "Joey you made it!" Yugi said giving Joey a high five. "Oh Joey if you're here where's Tea and Tristan?!" Yugi asked.
"Oh that…Yugi there's something I gotta tell ya." Joey said thinking of how poor Yugi was going to take this. "Well Joey what is it?" Yugi asked. "Wait Yugi who are they?" Joey asked pointing to Mana and Mahad. "Oh that's Mana and the other guy is Mahad." Yugi said.
Joey gaped his mouth a little but quickly recomposed. "They look like those two people from the Pharaoh's memories, no wonder Yugi is hanging out with them!" He thought with a smirk but quickly saddened.
"Well Yugi, Tristan can't come because of his deficiency in Math and Tea can't come because she left for America…yesterday." Joey said. Yugi gasped and took a step back. "Yeah….she got a deal with a famous coordinator so she took it and left." Joey said sadly to the broken Yugi.
Mahad caught the broken boy in his arms. "Easy Yugi, it'll be fine." He said trying to comfort the poor boy. "I'm sorry Yug, this is just what happened she left you a text on your phone yesterday afternoon." Joey said as Yugi quickly looked shockingly yet ironically, it was around the time he defeated Mahad. "I'm sorry Yug I know how much she meant to you." Joey said trying to comfort him.
"…It's fine Joey." Yugi said getting up. "Wha? Fine, you're okay with this are ya sure?!" Joey asked. This wasn't like Yugi he usually would fall down like a little kid and cry but now he was different he stood proud and tall just like-Joey froze in that thought. "So that's what's going on!" Joey thought realizing Yugi was trying to act like Atem and take his advice and be brave.
"Yugi…you're a real man." Joey said with pride as Yugi lifted his face wiping the small tears. "C'mon everyone it's time to duel!" Yugi said walking into the gate as the others followed suit.
Meanwhile, Seto got up but to the most awkward sight he would ever imagine himself in. Kisara was next to him on the couch! "What. The. Hell!" Was all that ran through the totally shocked CEO's thoughts. "Wha-What the?! He said out loud. Mokuba quickly came in. "What's wrong Set-Whoa!" Mokuba exclaimed as he saw Kisara next to Seto on the couch.
Mokuba slapped himself to be sure he wasn't dreaming but to his shock he wasn't. His nose bled a little at the see thru shirt but quickly left with a smirk among smirks. Seto stared knowing what Mokuba was thinking. He moved to wake her up but she looked so peaceful so he stopped. "You are so busted when you get up!" He said softly.
Suddenly, she yawned and was moving. "I know Seto I was just cold and needed to warm myself up I didn't mean to actually fall asleep on you!" She said a bit embarrassed. "Fate hates me so much! Why Ra, why?!" He thought to himself as Kisara moved her hand on his cheek to get him up. "You okay you seem in a daze." She said.
He blushed and slowly put down her had wishing he never had to let go. "I'm fine but wanna watch T.V. before we go down stairs to eat?" He offered. "Is it a trick like when we first met or do you mean it?" Kisara asked. "I mean it besides Mokuba thinks we did the unthinkable last night so let's stay up here awhile to keep him in suspense." Kaiba said.
"Seto Kaiba sometimes you are so evil!" Kisara said with a giggle. "Now I wouldn't say evil but naughty would be one!" He said with a snicker. "What kind of naughty?" She said with a seductive smirk. "Nice try but I'm off limits." Kaiba said with a laugh. "Why don't we make your little brother's little guess real." Kisara said realizing there was a web cam there. Kaiba looked at the web cam and smirked.
"No Kisara we can't." He said as she got up so he could see thru her see thru white shirt. He quickly looked away but she sat upright laughing at his immaturity. "Like what you see Seto?" She asked with a snicker. "Don't ask that question." Seto said. "Oh so it's a yes than!" Kisara said with a smile. "Well…Maybe just a little, but you don't get a comment there!" Kaiba quickly said.
Kisara sighed happily. "A stubborn man to the end." She thought laying on him again. He blushed. "Uh…okay forget the T.V. we are going to get ready for the tournament!" He said getting his clothes on outside the room. "Uh…Seto why are you changing out there?" Kisara asked. "Well we don't watch each other do we?" Kaiba asked.
"You can I don't mind this time since it's not like you were spying on me like last time!" She said removing her bed shirt and getting her outfit ready with her white KaibaCorp scarf. Kaiba blushed at her statement unfortunately long enough for Kisara to see it as she left their room. "Something wrong Seto?" She asked as they ran down the stairs. "Can it!" Kaiba said as they raced down the stairs to the dining room where Mokuba was waiting with their food.
"I figured I'd wait for you guys but just asking what were you two doing up there and the position I found you two in what happened?!" Mokuba questioned. "Well Mokuba, girls have needs and-"Kaiba was caught off by a slap from Kisara. "Shut up Seto, don't poison his mind!" Kisara said. "Too late there!" Kaiba said getting up eating his breakfast.
After dropping Mokuba off at school the two went to the gate to start their duels again. "So Seto who are we going to duel today?" Kisara asked. "How should I know all the weaklings are gone so there should only be a good number of us all left." Kaiba said walking through the streets spotting Yugi and friends.
"Oh it's Kaiba!" Yugi said running to Kaiba intentions unknown. "Hey it's that hot chick from that movie Mokuba sent us!" Mahad said to the now blushing Kisara. "Oh my RA! I wouldn't have laughed so hard if I knew the girl in the room with Moneybags was Kisara!" Joey said with his mouth gaping wide open.
"Doubt my abilities now Wheeler?!" Kaiba asked. "Shut it Kaiba!" Joey said as the two had already started an argument. "Um…Mr. Kaiba is she your girlfriend?" Mana asked innocently pointing at Kisara. "No we are friends under special
conditions!" Seto said annoyed now. "Oh, you guys don't need to call him Kaiba he can be called Seto." Kisara said laughing.
"Okay than Seto, you are one lucky dog scoring something like that!" Mahad said as Kaiba just got his biggest button pushed. "Damn it all she's not my girlfriend just a friend and on other terms I did not do the unthinkable okay it was just a Ra-Damned couch!" Seto said red as a tomato. They all glanced at him as he had an anime sweat drop. "You slept with her?! Whoa Kaiba I didn't know you operated that way!" Yugi said surprised with a shocked Joey.
"Kaiba…" Joey started. "Yeah Wheeler?" Kaiba replied. "You lucky bastard!" Joey said enviously. Kaiba went redder with steam now coming from his head. "I think we should stop now Kaiba looks like he's gonna blow!" Mahad said with a laugh. "Oh…Yugi we're sorry but Mana and I also have news for ya." Mahad said.
"Does it involve Ancient Egypt?" Yugi asked. "How did you know?!" Mana asked. "I've been through this with Kaiba and Joey several times though Kaiba is the only one who doesn't believe a single word of it!" Yugi said."And I still don't to this very day!" Kaiba said arrogantly. "So are you saying the one you slept with isn't real too?" Kisara asked knowing this would get to him since he was already pissed.
As Mahad and Mana were talking to Yugi about their purpose being there Kisara in Seto got into an argument again. "Kisara…just stop once we get the RA Damned Eye we will forget any of this ever happened!" Kaiba said angrily crossing his arms. "What about me huh are you really just going to leave me alone and forget all about me?!" Kisara asked. Kaiba just realized it; he didn't decide what to do when this was over! But actually did he even want her to go?
"Sorry, don't have an answer yet." Kaiba said grouchily. Kisara smiled. "Well at least he didn't say yes." Kisara thought hopefully. "So what are ya calling the kid Moneybags, Seto jr.?" Joey asked laughing. "Hmm…Wheeler, it was an accident and trust me, unless I am out of my mind it won't happen again!" Seto said defensively.
"Oh Joey! There you are I've been looking for ya ever since I got up!" A feminine voice called. "Oh crap, Mai! I can't let rich boy find out he'll never let me live this down!" Joey thought panicking. "Oh uh, hey Mai!" Joey said trying to act innocent at the staring eyes. "Joey did you tell Yugi yet?" Mai asked.
"Tell me what Joey?" Yugi asked appearing out of nowhere. "Nothing Yugi, um hold on I need ta talk to Mai for a minute!" Joey said scrambling to a location where he and Mai could talk where Kaiba couldn't here. "Mai I would but with Kaiba around it makes things difficult and I just teased him about that so how do ya think he'll react?!" Joey explained terrified.
"Joey Wheeler, your immaturity appalls me sometimes but Yugi needs to know he will be uncle Yugi soon." Mai said to Joey. "I'm going to be an uncle of who's kid?" Yugi asked. "Oh Ra, Yugi!" Joey practically screamed with a jump. "Yugi…I'm pregnant with your home boys kid okay." Mai explained as Joey paled and fainted.
"And who are you three?" She said turning to Kisara, Mahad and Mana. "I'm Kisara we just heard congratulations!" Kisara said shaking her hand. "Why thank you and dare I ask Yugi but is this one yours?" Mai asked pointing to Kisara. Kisara and blushed and said, "Actually I'm here with Seto." She said motioning to Kaiba waiting with his arms crossed chuckling at how the mutt's joke just backfired.
"Oh, so he finally gave in eh? Hah, that's funny, well good luck girl!" She said as Mana was jumping with excitement. "I'm Mana nice to meet you!" Mana said holding out her hand. "Oh nice to meet you two!" Mai said shaking hands. "And who's mr. talk dark and handsome." Mai said motioning to Mahad. "I'm Mahad and by the way…Yugi fancies Mana." Mahad said whispering the last part.
"Oh he does now ho, ho, that is interesting!" Mai said laughing. "So Mai can ya duel?!" Joey asked. "I'm sorry hun but the doctor said no dueling. I will see you at home later!" She said kissing Joey before leaving. "Hey Mutt what was that about children?!" Kaiba said laughing.
"Shut up Kaiba!" Joey said angrily. "Seto please, try and get along with him we may need their help!" Kisara begged. "Why would I ask for their help?! I think I am doing just fine on my own!" Kaiba said angrily. "Seto…" Kisara started putting a hand on his shoulder. "I can take care of my self!" Kaiba retorted walking away into the crowd of duelists. "Hoo boy, he's still the same stubborn Kaiba!" Joey said laughing.
"Before you leave Kaiba we have a proposition for you." Mahad began. "Oh, and what is that?!" Kaiba asked. "We will form a team each is to search for either or both Millennium Items and than when we get the two we'll meet here and all will be well you can even drop out of the tournament if you wish!" Mahad offered.
"…Hmm…Okay that makes my life easier I accept for now." Kaiba said walking away completely. Attention all duelists as of now the tournament and so forth will be on weekends in order for students to go to school meaning there are only two days left and the remaining top 10 will enter the semi-finals. Joey dropped to his knees. "NOOOO!!" He screamed. "Damn a postponing! He must be buying time for something hm…but what?" Kaiba pondered as he walked on walking to school as Kisara caught up to him.
"What's with you Seto?! You always get like this around them what's your problem?!" Kisara asked angrily. "What do you care it's my life not yours!" Kaiba retorted. Kisara only shrugged as the went to school. Kaiba was annoyed because almost all of his classes had partner homework assignments and he got stuck with Kisara "every damn time!" in his words.
"They walked home with Kaiba dialing the phone so fast he cramped his fingers! "Agh, Hey Roland come pick us up!" Seto ordered. "Right away Mr. Kaiba." Roland replied hanging up as Seto stood among the gates waiting for Roland as Kisara was looking up into the sky.
Eventually Roland came with an unexpected surprise, Mokuba! "Roland what's Mokuba doing here?!" Seto demanded. "Mr. Kaiba, Mokuba said that he has no homework and wanted to come with me to get you guys." Roland explained. "Hm, okay than fine." Seto said getting in as Kisara followed.
"Hey Mokie, is my room up and running yet?" Kisara asked. "Nope another week." Mokuba said annoying Kisara. "A week but that's the length of the tournament!" Kisara said disturbed by than Seto would make his choice and she could guess what it was. "I know sorry." Mokuba said apologetically. "It's alright Mokie and oh yes Seto what are we going to do to Mokuba again for spying on us last night and e-mailing it to Yugi and his friends?" Kisara asked with malice.
"We shall tie him up and torture him!" Kaiba said with a smirk. "That sounds fun." Kisara said sarcastically. "Yes it is!" Seto replied. "Wait wha, uh oh, you know about the web cam of RA!" Mokuba said as he knew he was in for one heck of a night. "Seto I'm tired." Kisara said yawning across his chest.
"And you're telling me this because why?" Seto asked not getting the hidden context within the sentence until Mokuba whispered it in his ear. Seto turned beet red and Kisara guessed Mokuba just told Seto the most perverted thing that could have meant."Uh the answer is no!" Seto said as he got out of the car which had been park for a good two minutes already. Kisara just caught on to what Seto thought it was and that was definitely not what she meant!
"I'm not talking about that subject I'm saying that I'm going to bed that is after my shower!" Kisara said. Seto shrugged. "Yeah fine, go on I don't think that information was required. Seto replied. Mokuba thought about what Yugi said in his reply. "Hm…nah she'd really hurt me!" Mokuba thought and winced at the horrible thought of Kisara mercilessly beating him to death and ran to the arcade room.
"What's his problem?" Seto said to himself before going to his room to shuffle through his deck. Kisara had just gotten dressed and out of the shower and sat on the couch to talk with her "roommate". "So…whatchya doin?" Kisara asked seeing him typing quickly on the keyboard. "I am looking for info on that rat Gozaburo!" Kaiba explained.
Kisara sighed if it isn't dueling it's the war with him and Gozaburo. "Seto I'm tired and I'm wanting some attention so can you sit and talk to me for awhile?" Kisara asked as he heavingly shoved the screen down. "Okay about what?" Kaiba asked. "About each other you know, so I can get to know you and you can get to know me." She said softly.
"…Fine but where to start? Hm…wait I know." He began and spoke of his life as a child in the orphanage with Mokuba and their time with Gozaburo. "Seto I didn't know, I mean had I known you were treated that way I would have never been-"She began as Seto stopped her. "I know its fine." Seto said sitting down but to his shock she was hugging him. "Kisara what are you doing?!" He asked totally confused.
"You've been hurt Seto yet you tried so hard to protect Mokie, I misjudged you but maybe I can help take away the pain he has dealt to your heart." She said softly. "He touched her hand reassuringly. "He's dead now though and once I wins tournament he'll stay that way so don't worry everything's gonna be alright." He said. She lay on his lap and asked him, "Can we now?" She asked pointing to the busted Camera.
He shrugged, she really was a perseverant person. "Fine but just this once!" He said as he turned out the lights. A few hours later Mokuba came upstairs to tell Seto goodnight or make sure he wasn't overloading on coffee since he hadn't come to tell him good night but when he opened the door he wished he hadn't. "Oh my RA!" "AHHHHH!" Mokuba thought quickly shutting the door running to his room.
Author's Notes:
Poor Mokuba, he wanted Seto to spend time away from work but I don't think this is what he had in mind! Ah well this is longer than normal the next one will be a duel completely see ya soon!
