Battle of the Eating Utensils
Battle 03: No Truce
"This is fun, sitting here on top of the Kaiba Corp. building roasting marshmallows. We should do this more often, Laria." Mokuba, the youngest of the Kaiba siblings was currently roasting marshmallows on the roof top of the Kaiba Corp. building with his sister Laria. I do wonder why I'm narrating this if Mokuba just said it, talk about obvious.
Suddenly an abnormally strong wind was felt that nearly blew them away. They looked to the skies of Domino City to find Seto's helicopter flying as fast a jet would. Hey wait, were those fiery jet engines he put in it? And a dragon design? A blue eyes white dragon helicopter complete with new super fast engines? The copter stopped in mid air switching from jet to chopper mode. It went back in reverse and landed on the roof.
"I saw a fire and I was so worried about my Kaiba Corp.!" Seto rushed towards the fire and realized it was a holographic fire and the marshmallows were not truly roasted.
"Want some roasted marshmallows big brother?" Mokuba handed him a stick with a few normal marshmallows.
"They're not roasted," Seto noted.
"Talk about stating the obvious Mr. No Imagination," Laria rolled her eyes.
"Chibi Baka I know I couldn't leave you to take care of Kaiba Corp. Why are you pretending to roast marshmallows with Mokuba instead of working?" A precious day of work had been thrown away by his sister's lack of workaholicness and Seto could not forgive that.
"Don't call me Chibi Baka! You should be thanking me because I made this really cool ad for the new model of Duel Disks and people outside of the Duel Academy are actually buying them now! But I still say Battle City Duel Disks are better!" Laria defended.
"What about the production?" Seto half yelled.
"To full capacity," Laria replied.
"And the inventory?" Seto calmed down a bit, only a little.
"Being bought as soon as it's produced," Laria assured.
"All because of an ad?" Seto was in disbelief. How could that be?
"It's just that the one you had was really boring so I made a better one." Laria produced a sample flier out of nowhere. "This is the basic concept. We could film a TV commercial too."
Seto looked at the paper. "This is..." The world came to a halt, the busy streets of the gaming city fell silent and Laria and Mokuba waited for Seto to finish. The bishounen was in deep concentration, he was trying really hard to push the words out. Almost... almost... "it's pretty good," Seto certainly had a hard time admitting it, but to say it was bad would be a terrible and obvious lie.
"I told you I could take care of Kaiba Corp." Laria proudly declared.
"Does this mean you two are finally done fighting and now you'll rule Kaiba Corp. together as siblings?" Mokuba's violet eyes shone with hope.
"Not just as siblings but as twins!" Laria cheered.
"And not just Kaiba Corp, we'll rule the world!" Seto added.
The Kaiba twins made a pose, which scared Mokuba and he started to back away slowly while laughing nervously.
A split second later, Seto woke up from his dream by the blissful sound of his noisy blue eyes white dragon alarm clock.
The CEO got out of bed and followed his usual morning routine. Could it be that the dream was trying to tell him something? That maybe he should trust his sister to be a true Kaiba deep down and allow her to help him run Kaiba Corp? Could it be that 'Lar' had an amazing talent for publicity that he never knew about? He shook his head. Nah, that couldn't be.
By the time Seto went downstairs for breakfast, the dream had been quickly forgotten. The spoon and the fork could have no truce, at least not right now.
