Seto quickly made his way to the basement. He flipped the light on. Then the lights suddenly went out, a minute later the backup generators kicked in. However, this generator only lit the doctor's office and part of the corridor in that direction. The rest of it was dark. Seto looked around and figured Mokuba wouldn't go into the office, especially if he saw people in there. But he felt it best to at least ask to be sure.

"Dr. Solomon."

"My king, is there something I can do for you?"

"I wanted to know if you've seen Mokuba."

"No, my king I haven't. I'm sorry." Dr. Solomon said then got a thought. "Randy."

"Yes, doctor."

"This is King Kaiba." Dr. Solomon said.

"Greetings my king."

"This is my new assistant. Randy, have you seen a young boy today; 10, long black hair?" Dr. Solomon asked.

"No, sir I'm sorry I haven't."

"What makes you believe the child would be here?"

"He wasn't in his room and has been known to sleepwalk and in his state of mind at the time I figured he'd head for the basement, I guess I was mistaken."

"Perhaps he's at the opposite end of this corridor. It's used just for storage." Dr. Solomon said.

"I'll check it out."

Seto started out to go see if maybe the doctor was right.

The sudden bright light woke Mokuba. He sat up and looked around rubbing his eyes trying to figure out where he was and how he got here. Then he was really spooked when the lights went out. He was terrified not knowing where he was. He wanted to get up and look around but there were too many shadows and too many noises for him to handle. Not to mention the storm. He felt it better to stay put till either the lights come back on, morning comes or the storm breaks.

Then he heard a noise, looked up and started to shake even more, seeing a shadow of a man. He started to whimper.

"Mokuba."

Mokuba recognized the voice. "S-Seto."

Seto sighed, walked over and scooped the boy up into his arms. "Are you all right?"

"F-fine, Seto." Mokuba said with his arms tightly around Seto's neck.

The boy was cold, his clothes were still wet and he was shaking. But beyond that, he seemed okay.

"Are you sure you're alright?"

"I'm f-fine big brother. But w-where am I, how d-did I get here?"

"You were sleepwalking again."

"I'm s-sorry."

"Shh…it's all right. As long as you're safe, that's all that matters. It's not your fault." Seto said. Then sighed and asked. "Where's Ryo? He's supposed to be watching you."

Mokuba sat up to look at him. "He w-was?"

"You mean he wasn't here at all."

Mokuba shook his head no.

"I'm sorry kiddo, I didn't mean to leave you alone, especially when I know how much you hate storms. Do you know where Ryo went?"

"H-he t-told me he had to g-go back home with Uncle Bakura b-because their parents were c-coming home. He s-said y-you t-told him y-you'd be home early."

"I guess we must have had mixed signals. Seems to me he did say that was sometime this week. I'm really sorry about this kiddo."

"It's okay big brother." Mokuba said. Then he got an idea. "S-Seto."

"What is it, Mokuba?" Seto asked, carrying him upstairs.

"I k-know how you can make it up to me."

Seto smiled. "How do I do that?"

"C-can I sleep with you tonight?"

"Of course you can."

After they got upstairs, Seto set the boy down.

"Now go get your nightshirt, your baby dragon if you want to sleep with him and a book then come to my bathroom and let me change your bandages."

"I d-don't have to take a b-bath do I?"

"Why don't you like baths? Haven't you ever taken baths before?"

Mokuba shook his head no. "I w-went to the l-lake or j-just a w-wet rag."

"What about your hair?"

"Asana d-did t-that the day before, w-we w-were expecting company."

"Well you need to learn to like baths better. But no, you're not getting one tonight. It's late, you're tired and sleepy. We're only going to change your bandages and dry you off."

"Okay big brother." Mokuba said.

Then he went to his room to get his things. Then he walked into Seto's room and set his baby dragon and a book on the bed. Then went to the restroom where Seto was waiting, already dressed and ready for bed. Mokuba handed Seto his nightshirt. Seto laid it on the edge of the tub then helped the boy out of his wet things and got him dried off and ready for bed. After he was sure the boy's hair was dry, they went back into the bedroom and got settled in. By the time, Seto finished reading the book the boy was almost asleep.

Meanwhile Pandora and his men were getting ready.

"Master, are you sure this storm is a good idea?" Weevil asked.

"Yes, no one will think twice. They won't be expecting an attack while it's storming. They will think it's just a bad storm, nothing more. It will be the perfect time to strike."

"Are you certain of this Master?" Hopskin asked.

"So now you both are against me! Is there some form of conspiracy that I don't know about?"

"No, Master." Hopskin said.

"Of course not Master." Weevil said.

"We only want to be sure you are focused on our goals, not getting more power." Hopskin said.

However, this infuriated Pandora and shocked them both with low voltage lighting.

"That will teach you NOT to question me!"

Both still shaking bowed. "Y-yes master." They said at the same time.

"That's better. Soon very soon, we shall start our attack and it will be a glorious day for my victory!"
