"I have no idea what that is, so don't ask me." Kaiba said, halfway smiling at the refrence to Mokuba's favorite video game.
|
Suddenly there was a cough. Both brothers turned to see Laria leaning against the wall.
"You know you are on a time limit right Mokey?" she asked. "Yes I know" Mokuba said, then looking at Kaiba who was blushing because he was only wearing a towel. |
Kaiba looked away. Why me? Why the hell does it have to be me? He thought as his face turned red.
|
Laria giggled.
"That is totally priceless! Wait till I return home and tell your 'ex' rival" she said. "Laria" Mokuba exclamed. "Sorry but did you think I knew he was in a towel? If it was Yugi, I wouldn't have a problem" Laria resorted. |
"Just--out!" Kaiba shouted. "OUT!"
|
"Oh? So you don't want to know how your company evolves after you die then? Fine then" Laria huffed in the same way as a certain somebody who did the same thing to Yugi.
"Seto, I think I should explain...." Mokuba said. |
"Wait---wha---never mind." Kaiba grumbled. To his dismay, he was turning bright red. "And yes, and explanation would be rather helpful right now......"
|
"She's not who she really is" Mokuba said.
"Exactly because where this look comes from....well...lets just say that I'm dead and am a undercover angel. And this is the only form I can come because you know what I really look like plus causing the rift to be ripped bigger" she said, holding out a familiar pair of tags. |
Kaiba sighed. "I already figured out for myself that you're Ashleigh," he said. "Now would you mind getting out of my bathroom?"
|
"Not until you listen on what I have to say Kaiba and it's really important" Laria growled.
"She's right you know" Mokuba said. |
Kaiba sighed. "All right. What is it?" He grumbled.
If there was ever an embarassing moment, this would be it. The Blue Eyes duelist thought. |
"Next week, I be heading to Kaimiri to give up my heart. Unlike Mokuba, I chose to give myself up" Laria said. That shocked Kaiba to the core.
|
"What?! Are you mental!?!" He snapped. "What the hell are you thinking!?!"
|
"My human self doesn't want to go through it but I have to. It gives you an edge on the fight to get your revenge on Kaimiri. The angels has already decided on it and there's not turning back. They will let me return 5 months after so you will still get to see me" Laria said.
|
Kaiba sighed. "And I'm assuming you're not changing your mind anytime soon?" He asked.
|
"No I'm not. It's too late and D-Day is being pushed closer and closer, it's too late to pull out" Laria said, noticing the towel was starting to slip.
"I think I better leave before the towel falls off" she said, "Mokuba, you have about 3 minutes to wrap this up." And with that, Laria left. |
Kaiba caught the towel before it fell completely. "...Why do I get the feeling that I'm redder than a tomato?" He asked.
|
Mokuba laughed.
"Well, you wanted to marry her" he replied. |
"Guh--wha--" Kaiba sputtered. If anything, he was turning redder. "You--"
|
"Anyway, I have to go. I see you on D-Day then" Mokuba said then disappeared, leaving Kaiba all alone. The next day however, he felt much better and showed more progress in his training.
"Impressive Kaiba. You have made progress" Atem said, panting. |
"Let's just say I did some thinking last night." Kaiba replied. He was dressed all in black; his long-sleeved shirt had a high collar, the trousers he had tucked into the boots he was wearing, which had gleaming silver clasps at the top. His aura was activated, glowing gold and releasing the scent of sandalwood. His normally blue eyes were golden disks.
|
"Ok, how much I want to ask, I'm going to let it slip pass. Now, today's lesson, is to turn your anger into power" Atem said and clicked his fingers. Targets appeared every part of the room.
"Now, these targets are not the normal targets you dealt with before. These can only be be destroied by emotional attacks, not normal attacks. If you want to know what I mean, go ahead and attack" he explained. |
Kaiba nodded. From his aura he formed a bow and arrow, which he aimed at one of the farther targets. Once he was sure of where the shot would hit, he let the arrow fly. It hit the target and dispersed into a puff of gold smoke. "What?" He blurted.
|
"Now you know what I mean. To make this work, you have to get really angry which channels through your magic, making it stonger. Can you do that without hitting me?" Atem asked.
Ashleigh was sitting in the mess hall, not touching her food. Aka, who was really worried about the girl and don't want to be blasted, she went to ask Selena to help her out. |
Kaiba smirked. "Well, we'll just find out, won't we?" he asked in reply.
"What's wrong?" Selena asked when she answered the door for Aka. |
