Aoi: Hay guys! So what you're about to read is a kind of filler. But the character I'm about to introduce will be in more chapters and it has Eiko so it is going here. Hope you enjoy!


"Come on Eiko, you can do better than that!" Mokuba said his with his hands on his hips. The two had been playing soccer; Eiko would aim the ball at the goal and Mokuba would try to block it. They often played this game at the orphanage when they were younger. Mokuba had gotten better since they were little and had blocked every shot that Eiko had sent towards him.

"All right, Mokuba, try to stop this!" Eiko used her foot to kick the ball up; she then swung her leg so it would hit the ball. The ball wised thought the air, heading straight for the goal. Mokuba moved quickly to try and catch the ball. The ball came towards Mokuba; unfortunately, the ball hit him square in the head. He fell to the ground.

"Ack! Mokuba!" Eiko yelled as she was running towards him. "Mokuba, are you ok?" Eiko said, getting down on her hands and knees. At first, Mokuba said nothing, then a giggle slowly escaped. Mokuba started to laugh.

"Why you-" Mokuba jumped up and started to run. "Get back here, you!" Eiko said as she started chasing after him.

"Try to catch me!" Mokuba yelled behind him.

"Man, you've gotten fast," Eiko yelled after him.

After a while, Mokuba fell to the ground, gasping for air. Eiko fell beside him.

"How did you get to be so fast?" she asked through her heavy breaths.

"I'm really not that fast, you're just slow," Mokuba said jokingly.

"Hey!" Eiko said as Mokuba laughed. Eiko looked at her watch.

"We should probably get you home." The two walked over to get their soccer ball then walked down the street.

"What's with that box?" Mokuba asked, looking at an old, dried out box on the side of the street. Mokuba peered into it. "Hey, a dog!" Mokuba said, picking it up out of the box. Eiko looked at the box. There was a sign that said, "Needs a home. Please take good care of."

"Wait, Mokuba! It might have rabies." Mokuba turned around with a black puppy with blue eyes in his hands. "Aw, it's so cute!" Eiko squealed, leaning over so that she could look into the puppy's eyes.

"Can we keep him?" Mokuba asked. Eiko looked at Mokuba to say that Seto probably wouldn't agree. Mokuba's eyes were the size of quarters, his blue eyes pleading.

"Oh… all right," Eiko said, giving in.

"Yay!" Mokuba said as he looked at the puppy. "I'm going to call you, Kiba!" Mokuba said happily.

"Fang?" Eiko said, giving Mokuba a bit of a strange look.

"I chose it mostly because it sounds like 'Kaiba'…." Mokuba said admittedly. "But come on, he does look like a Kaiba; he's got blue eyes like me and Seto."

"Hey, I never said it was a bad name, just wondering why you chose it. I think it's a great name," Eiko said as she looked at Mokuba. The puppy rested in his arms, and Eiko scratched under the dog's chin. His tail wagged happily, "Come on, we need to get some stuff from the pet store."


Kiba walked happily on his new leash. Eiko and Mokuba only got the necessities: a dog bed, bowls for Kiba to eat out of, dog food, and a new color and leash that Kiba wore proudly.

"I'll get him a tag tomorrow," Mokuba said. "Thanks again, Eiko," Mokuba said as he was looking up at her.

"Don't mention it, Mokuba," Eiko said with a smile. "So, got any idea how you're going to tell Seto?" Eiko asked.

"Well, I was thinking that—"

"Mokuba?" Eiko looked up, Seto stood by the gate to the house holding a brief case. "What are you doing? It's almost eleven o'clock!"

"Seto, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I—"

"Well, that makes sense," Seto said. "Mokuba, bed. Now." Mokuba nodded, he headed towards the house, Kiba following closely behind.

"Seto, I'm so sorry," Eiko said, walking over to Seto.

"Its fine, I should know what to expect when I let you watch him for the day." Seto said, pinching the bridge of his nose. Eiko could tell he was tired, since he's been up since five in the morning. "I have to go, I just came here to get some papers." Seto stated.

"You're heading back to the office?" Eiko asked, a look of concern on her face.

"Yes, I've got work tomorrow too," Seto said.

"You want me to watch him tomorrow also?" Eiko asked.

"Please do. I worry about him being alone so much…" Seto said, looking back at the house. Eiko smiled, she kissed him lightly on the cheek.

"You're a good brother," she said, smiling. "I'll see you tomorrow, Seto," Eiko said as she was walking back towards her apartment.

"Hmph, I can only hope," Seto said, shaking his head.


Seto woke up to the sound of his alarm clock, 'ugh,' he thought lethargically, 'I must of gotten three hours of sleep at best…' his eyes slowly opened. He could faintly see a figure as he opened his eyes.

"Mokuba…" he said wearily. His eyes adjusted to the light, a small dog with big blue eyes looked back at him happily. A small, wet pink tong licked his face. Seto gritted his teeth. "Mokuba!" A yell rang thought the house.


Eiko quickly opened the door.

"Mokuba, I'm so sorry! You weren't alone for long, we're-" Eiko stopped mid-sentence. Seto sat on a chair, staring back at Eiko. His arms were crossed and his face had an annoyed look on it. "Seto? What are you doing here? I thought you would be at-"

"Did you have anything to do with this, Eiko?" Seto said, cutting her off.

"What are you…?" Eiko started to say. Seto pointed down to his leg, Kiba was enjoying himself, ripping the hems off Seto's pants. "Kiba! Bad dog!" Eiko said, picking Kiba off the floor.

"So, you did have something to do with this?" Seto said, standing up. 'Oh, this can't be good…' Eiko thought.

"Okay Seto, calm down, let me explain."

"Mokuba already told me," Seto said, his eyes slits. "But I would like to hear what you have to say."

"Well," Eiko said, trying to think of something to say. "You did say you were worried about Mokuba being alone so much," Eiko said looking up at Seto. "And I can't always take care of him, I have work and school. But Kiba here," Eiko said, lifting the pup up so that Seto could get a better look at him."Will always be able to be with Mokuba. And it would give him a sense of responsibility," Eiko said, smiling. Seto didn't look convinced. "Look, Seto, don't do it for me. Do it for Mokuba. You should have seen how happy he was when I said he could keep him. And you've got to admit," Eiko said looking at the dog, "he is cute." Seto looked at the dog.

"Kiba, eh?" he said, rubbing the dog's neck.

"Mokuba chose the name, because it sounded like Kaiba…" Eiko said.

"Well, the name does fit him," Seto said, looking at the dog.

"Yeah, he does look like look like you guys with the blue eyes and all." Eiko said, looking up at Seto.

"Actually, I was referring to the fact that his name means fang."

"Huh?" Eiko said she looked down at the dog. His was enjoying himself, biting into Seto's hand.

"Kiba!" Eiko yelled at the dog.

"It's okay, he's been kind of doing it all day," Seto said, lifting up his other hand. It was covered with little red bite marks. Eiko struggled not to laugh.

"You can laugh." Seto said.

"I couldn't ever laugh at someone else's pain." Eiko said.

"Oh, please," Seto said, "you're loving this, aren't you."

"I'm more loving the fact that you're letting Mokuba keep Kiba," Eiko said, smiling.

"Please tell Mokuba that he is not allowed in my bed," Seto said, "I would prefer to not wake up every morning with a dog in my face."

"I will, I will, now you need to get to work," Eiko said, setting Kiba down on the floor.

"I already called the office to tell them I would be late," Eiko quickly turned to look at him.

"Don't do that! Great you're starting to become like me!" Seto smiled. He lifted Eiko's chin with his hand.

"Yes, but unlike you, I call before I'm late," he said, then leaned in and gave her a short kiss. "Thanks again for staying with Mokuba."

"It's no problem, Seto, he's a lot of fun to be with." Eiko's face became serious, "You raised him very well, Seto. And I mean that." Seto smiled.

"Thanks, I've got to go." He said, looking at his watch quickly. "Bye!" Seto said as he walked out the door.

"Have a good day at work!" Eiko called after him. The room was silent. Eiko turned, she jumped a bit when she saw Mokuba standing behind her. "How long have you been there?" Eiko asked, still a bit startled.

"Long enough. Now I have a question," Mokuba said. A smile spread across his lips, "How long have you been dating Seto?"


"So you told him?" Seto asked, Eiko had decided to meet Seto at his office to bring him lunch. While there Eiko had hoped to tell Seto about Mokuba. Right before Seto had left the office Mokuba had seen them kissing, and assumed that they were dating. Which they were,

"Well yah. I mean the cat was pretty much out of the bag so…" Eiko said looking down.

"What's up with you?" Eiko's head shot back up, "ever since you got here you've been down." Seto commented,

"Oh, well…" Eiko stuttered embarrassed about what she was about to say. "I just thought I took a brother biding moment from you by telling Mokuba that we're dating." Eiko said admitingly.

"Actually you've taking a big burden off my shoulders," Seto said standing up from his desk, "I was dreading every moment of telling Mokuba."

"Really?" Eiko said, "even though Mokuba really wanted you to have a girlfriend?" Seto looked at Eiko.

"And I'm sure you ecstatic to tell your friends that your dating me," Eiko's eyes got wide, 'I never even thought about that.' "Lets face it Eiko, one day they'll figure out that you have a boyfriend or some guy in your life. And it wont take long for them to figure out its me." After that comment the conversation ended. Eiko wasn't sure that she wanted to tell Yugi and the gang. She knew that they weren't big fans of Seto; so telling that might be a problem. "Thanks for the lunch," Seto said lifting up the small box raped in cloth.

"Oh its no problem Seto," Eiko said smiling. "I just hope you like squid, it was the only thing I could find in the house." Seto smirked,

"Squid is fine," suddenly the phone rang. Seto quickly answered it. Eiko decided that was her cue to leave. Seto left the office, taking one quick look back at Seto before she left. 'Should I tell them? Eiko thought as she looked at Seto. 'Would they understand if I told them how happy he made me?' Eiko closed the door to the office.


Eiko stood at the counter of the game shop; she looked over her Egyptology notes.

'Hay Red?' Eiko thought,

'Yah?' Red replied from the corners of her mind.

'Thutmose the third was from the 18th dynasty right?' Eiko asked. Because of Red Eiko herself had missed a few classes. But it seem that Red had attended class, none of her teachers asked her were she had been the last few days. And Red knew the answers to questions that Eiko missed, so she must have attended. That or Red was much smarter the Eiko, which was always possible.

'Yup, and his name meant?' Red asked, that was another good thing about Red; you asked a question she asked right back.

'Son of Thoth,' Eiko replied.

'And Thoth was the God of what?'

"Hay Eiko," Jonouchi said interrupting her thoughts. "Tonight we were thinking about going out for some burgers, you want to come?" Eiko was about to say sure but she then remembered something.

"Sorry I cant, I have a date tonight."

"A date with who?" Anzu said intrigued. 'Crap!' Eiko thought. Seto was finally had a night off and he decided to spend it with Eiko. (Eiko had said that that was sweet in which Red replied with a raspberry. It seemed that Red didn't really like Seto. Eiko wasn't quite sure why.)

"I mean homework! I have homework!" Eiko said quickly, she then pretended to look at her notes.

"So you got a date eh cutie?" Mai asked walking over to the counter. Eiko looked up. She had that rambunctious smirk on her face and her arms crossed. That smirk always made her look older, but in a good way, in a wiser, 'I'm old enough to be proud of you' way. "Is he cute?" Eiko thought about Seto, with his ice blue eyes and smooth chiseled face Eiko didn't think he was cute. She thought he was more on the hot side.

"You could say that…" Eiko said she could feel her face growing hot. Mai chuckled.

"Your first date together?" she asked.

"Actually our second," 'just our second?' Eiko thought. To her it felt like she had been dating Seto for months, in a good way of coerce. But only two dates? Eiko could barley believe it. "We want on our first about a week ago."

"Why didn't you tell us?" Anzu said she had a bit of a flustered look on her face.

"I wasn't sure if it would work out…" Eiko said trailing a bit.

"And?" Mai said, "What do you think? Will it work?" Eiko looked up at Mai,

"I really like him," she said quietly, "I'm happy when I'm with him. And he makes me smile." Eiko's eyes were dreamy with bliss. In the corner of the shop Jonouchi and Honda were whispering to each other, the girls didn't notice. But in a few hours they wish they would of.


"Guys what are we doing here? I though we were going out to eat?" Yugi said he was crammed into the bushes with Jonouchi and Honda.

"Don't you want to see who Eiko is going out with?" Jonouchi asked looking at Yugi. Yugi's eyes got wide,

"That's what were doing here! Guys it's none of our business! If Eiko wants to tell us she will!"

"Look Yugi-" Jonouchi started to say.

"Guy's Eiko is coming!" Honda hissed. Jonouchi dived into the bushed, dragging Yugi behind him. The three peered thought the bushes. They could barely see thought the foliage of the bushes. "There's Eiko," Honda said, Eiko walked out of her building wearing a short white dress, a white rose was placed neatly in her hair.

"What dose the guy look like?" Jonouchi asked.

"Well he's tall," Honda said.

"What's that suppose to mean?" Jonouchi asked angrily.

"It means that I can't see his face!" Honda hissed truing back to face Jonouchi, "but Eiko seems happy." Honda commented looking back at the couple.

"Their arm in arm," Yugi commented. 'She dose look happy,' Yugi thought.

"Their on the move! Go, go, go!" Jonouchi said. He quickly pulled Yugi into another patch of bushes as the three struggled to follow the couple.


About an hour had passed. And Yugi, Jonouchi, and Honda were still following Eiko and her mystery date.

"Who ever it is his is stinking rich!" Jonouchi commented. "He brought her to one of the most fancy restraints in town! I would have to save up a months worth of salary from selling papers to get a piece of bread from that place!" Jonouchi had said earlier.

"Man who is this guy?" Honda said. "We've been at if about an hour now and we still have no idea who it is!"

"Guys I think we should head home, it getting late," Yugi said. He still wasn't enjoying this who spying on Eiko thing.

"No way!" Jonouchi yelled, "We still need to figure out who that guy is! And I don't know about you two, but I'm not giving up! I'm going to find out who that guy is or my name isn't-"

"Jonouchi?" a feminine voice said. Suddenly a hand grabbed Jonouchi's jacket and pulled him up. Jonouchi was suddenly looking into a pair of annoyed gold eyes.

"Um, hay Eiko. What's up?" Jonouchi said sheepishly.

"What are you doing?" Eiko said, "Why are you spying on me?"

"Who said I'm spying?" Jonouchi said. Eiko dropped him on the sidewalk. She proceeded to pull both Yugi and Honda out of the bushes. She placed them next to Jonouchi.

"Alright, what's going on here?" Eiko said placing her hands on her hips. "Why are you three spying on me?"

"Eiko, I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that their spying on you." Seto said Walking up behind Eiko. "I'm sure the dog can give you a good explanation on what they were doing." Seto looked at Jonouchi. "Care to explain Fido?"

"Kaiba?" the three friends said at once.

"Care to explain why you were stalking Eiko?" Jonouchi said with a sly look on his face. 'Heheh, lets see him talk his way out of that one,' Jonouchi thought to himself.

"For you information, I'm not stalking. I am currently on a date with Eiko."

"What!" the three exclaimed.

"I knew it!" a voice behind them said. The group turned to see Mai and Anzu standing next o each other. "See I told you Anzu, only Kaiba would be able to afford that fancy place!" Mai said triumphantly.

"Not you guys to!" Eiko exclaimed looking at the two.

"Yeah, sorry Eiko," Mai said rubbing the back of her neck guilt fully. "But we had to see who was the guy that makes you happy and makes you smile."

"Mai!" Eiko yelled she quickly hid her face in embarrassment.

"Whoops, sorry Eiko," Mai said, "well, um. We've got to go. Right Anzu…" Mai said looking at Anzu.

"What?" Anzu said snapping out of a daze. "Oh yah! We really need to go, um, we have to feed some…" Anzu didn't even bother to finish the sentence. He and Mai ran off into the darkness without a trace. Everyone was silent,

"Great seeing you Kaiba, well really must go. As they say in business time is money, but I'm sure you already knew that well bye!" Jonouchi said quickly as he slowly backed away with Honda and Yugi. The three quickly turned on the balls of their feet and ran like wild. They were gone in record time. A few seconds passed, Eiko gave herself a face palm. Kaiba then said the word that had been on her mind for the last five munities.

"Idiots…"
