Battle of the Eating Utensils
Battle 04: Two Halves
The day had started normally for Mokuba and for the majority of it, everything happened the way it usually did, until school ended. There was something missing from the front gate of the school. It was something big that he could not easily miss, yet he couldn't find it today. "Where's the limo?" Maybe the limousine was simply late or maybe there was a traffic jam, Mokuba didn't know, so he simply waited.
Half an hour later, Mokuba knew that the limousine wasn't coming. Sighing in frustration and worry, he started to walk. Of course he had tried his cell phone numerous times during his wait, but no one answered. Then again, he had been procrastinating to save numbers into it and the only numbers he had saved were those of his brother and sister. He should have saved the driver's number, but he had procrastinated and he didn't remember it. Taking guesses didn't work. Mokuba had somehow managed to call the Ishtars in Egypt, Pegasus and someone who claimed to be the Dark Magician.
As he walked, Mokuba saw a shiny silver thing on the sidewalk. He stopped in front of the small object and looked at it. The thing wasn't a spoon, it wasn't a fork and it wasn't a spork, it was half spoon and half fork. He stared at it wide eyed, jaw slightly dropped.
Cautiously Mokuba looked in every direction then back at the spoon-fork. He picked it up and examined it carefully. It was the strangest thing he ever saw, not a spoon, not a fork and not a spork. He had to tell someone about his finding, so little Mokuba put the strange object in his backpack and rushed home.
Later, Mokuba made it to the Kaiba Mansion out of breath from all the running. At the main entrance he saw his siblings, the Kaiba twins Laria and Seto arguing. Their position was rather inconvenient as they were blocking the way for the limousine one standing at the center of each lane, no wonder Mokuba had to walk. He didn't know why, how or when the argument started, but there was a more important situation at hand.
Mokuba approached his arguing siblings and took the spoon-fork out of his backpack. Holding up the shiny silver item he said, "look what I found!"
Both Kaiba twins turned their heads towards Mokuba and stared at the thing he held. "WTF?!" They exclaimed at the same time.
"I found it when I was walking home from school because someone wouldn't let the limo out." Mokuba saw the scared driver who had dared to interfere in the argument and was left to retreat with a punch and a kick.
"Never mind how you found it, it shouldn't exist!" Seto yelled in alarm.
"It's terrible! Horrible! I can't look at it!" Laria dramatically added.
"We must hunt down all those..." Seto paused, searching for the right word, "those evil things and destroy them!"
"Right, forks and spoons don't belong together, it's just wrong!" Laria agreed.
As his siblings ran off to plan their battle strategy, Mokuba stood there blinking for a few minutes before he finally started to walk towards the mansion. "I guess the only way to make them get along is if they have a common enemy."
