Chapter 15: Mokuba Revealed
  ; “Where are we?” Yugi asked as the Megazowler drifted onto a beach on the southern part of the virtually unexplored Western Continent.
&nbs p; “Beats me,” Ryuuzaki replied. “Never really bothered to fly around here since there ain’t nothing but mountains.”
&nb sp; “I heard of a town on the northern part of this continent,” said Ryou, “I don’t know if it’s still there or not, but we can try to find it.”
&nbs p; “Sounds good to me,” Yugi replied.
So off they went. Up the mountain paths until they came to a rope bridge crossing one of the many canyons. They were about to cross when they heard…
& nbsp; “Chotto, Chotto, Chooooooooooooooootto matte (Wait a sec)!!!!!” yelled Mokuba as he panted to catch up with the lead party.
&n bsp; “What’s wrong Mokuba?” Honda asked.
&n bsp; “I know this area pretty good! It gets kinda rough past this bridge.”
“Now you tell us?!!” the brunet asked, suspicious of the boy’s sudden eagerness to help. “You’re up to something, ain’t ya?”
&nbs p; “I’m not!” he said, indignant. “It does get tough! REALLY tough!”
& nbsp; Just then, a squad of Kaiba Corp. soldiers came running up to them. Somehow they had managed to follow them to the western continent.
&nbs p; “What the?!! How’d the *bleep* did Kaiba get here?”
&n bsp; “Wait a sec,” one of the soldiers said, “That ain’t them. These are those guys from before.”
“I knew it!” Honda spat, “You were really one of them all along!”
& nbsp; “No way!!! I swear it!!! I had nothing to do with this one.”
&nb sp; “Whaddya mean ‘this one’?!” Jou asked.
&n bsp; “So you were plannin’ something!!!” accused Honda.
&n bsp; “Um.. not really… you see… um… that is…”
&nb sp; “What should we do sir?” the soldier asked, confused by the rebel group’s argument.
  ; “Well, duh, get them!!! They’re wanted criminals you aho (dumb@$$)!!!!!”
  ; “I knew it!!!!!!” Honda bellowed, double checking his equipment after the soldiers had been taken care of. “ALL my materia’s missin’!!!!!”
& nbsp; “Hey!” Ryuuzaki called, “Where’s the gaki(brat)?”
&n bsp; “That damned Mokuba!!!!!” The irate brunet let out a string of curses along with a few frustrated growls. “I should have known the little creep was after our materia!!”
&nbs p; “He went north!” Jou said, noticing Mokuba’s tracks on the other side of the bridge.
& nbsp; “We’re goin’ after him!” Honda shouted, “Just wait ‘til I get my hands on him, I’ll…” No one waited for him to finish, they had immediately started following the thieving boy’s tracks. “Hey wait for me!!!”
& nbsp; Several hours and monster fights later, the group reached the only settlement located on the very northern part of the continent. Wutai was a sleepy little town with not much to it, except for a temple and an enormous statue carved into the side of one of the mountains nearby. They probably would have enjoyed the Japanese style architecture and décor, but the picturesque scenery was far from their minds. They HAD to get their materia back.
&nb sp; Upon entering, they spotted the raven haired thief, but Mokuba ran off and disappeared faster than any of them had ever seen him before.
& nbsp; They went from building to building searching for him, even risking a few limbs from the resident crazy cat lady’s many cats. Finally they came to the largest house by the temple. It was the last place they hadn’t searched, besides the temple which was closed off to outsiders for the time being.
&n bsp; After searching the many rooms, Yugi stepped into a bedroom where a raven haired boy about Honda’s age lay sleeping on a futon. He began tossing around and mumbling in his sleep. “What do you want? Don't have... AH...anything much but, you should be able to...” he rolled over before mumbling again. “rest yourselves here. Make yourselves at home.”
&n bsp; “Don’t you think he looks a bit like Mokuba?” Isis whispered.
&nbs p; “Mokuba?” the sleeping teen mumbled, startling them. Had he heard her? A quick glance told them that he was still talking in his sleep. “Don’t know him. ...you again? I’m telling you I don’t know any Mokuba. There isn't anyone named Mokuba here in Wutai!” He woke himself with that shout. He jerked when he noticed he wasn’t alone. You’re new here aren’t you?” he asked. “You’re not with Kaiba Corp. are you? Just my luck! This town’s finally getting some tourists again and they’re all Kaiba Corp. thugs!”
& nbsp; “Um.. we’re not Kaiba…” Yugi started.
“Don’t really care, my friend,” he interrupted, “But if you’re here to start trouble, you’d better leave. The last thing Wutai needs now is trouble with Kaiba Corp.”
&n bsp; A black blur dropped from the ceiling. “Nii-san you coward!” Mokuba yelled.
& nbsp; “Mokie!”
“If you’re so scared of Kaiba, Ryouta, then why don’t you just hand the town over to them like everyone else?!! These guys are way braver than you! They’ve been kicking Kaiba’s @$$ all this time while you’ve been nothing but a guzu(goof off)!!!”
“Mokuba, stay out of this! You don’t know anything!”
&nbs p; “I know plenty!” the younger boy spat, “Wutai lost one lousy battle and now you’re ready to throw in the towel!”
& nbsp; “How dare you talk to your older brother like that!!! I’m the one who puts food on the table!!! Tell me little brother, how many fish have you caught in the past six months? Not one! That’s how many!”
&n bsp; “What if I don’t wanna be a fisherman?! It’s my life!! Anyway, you’re not my father!!!”
&nbs p; The others could see the veins bulging from the older boy’s temples and neck.
&nb sp; “Y-You damned gaki!!!!!!” Ryouta bellowed, “If father were alive, he’d tan your disrespectful hide!!!”
Seeing that he went too far and was probably in for the beating of a lifetime, Mokuba threw a smoke bomb and high-tailed it out of there.
&n bsp; After chasing the raven haired boy all over Wutai, Yugi-tachi had finally cornered him outside the Turtle’s Paradise pub and restaurant. Ryuuzaki and Ryou blocked two of the exits while Yugi confronted him, cutting off the only other way of escape.
& nbsp; “You’re trapped Mokuba,” the spiky haired teen said, slowly advancing.
&nbs p; Mokuba looked down, defeated. “Ok, ok, you win Yugi. I’ll give back your materia. It’s back at my place.” Before any of them could protest, he threw another smoke bomb and ran off
  ; Seeing that they had to do their search over, they decided start with the pub – Yugi was in need of a nice cool one. Much to their dismay, it was crawling with Kaiba Corp. soldiers, not to mention some of the Ghouls were there.
&n bsp; “Hey! The reports were right!” one of the soldiers said, recognizing the group, “They are here! Go tell the Ghouls!”
“Bite ya bum(Aussie for shut up BTW ^_^)!” the brown haired Ghoul said from the next table over.
&nb sp; “W-W-What?!” the soldier said flabbergasted.
“We’re off duty ya dingbat! Sorry we can’t come save your bums, mate.” Varon really didn’t feel like getting his butt kicked yet again.
&n bsp; “Hmph! We don’t need your help, right?” The soldier next to him nodded.
& nbsp; “Yeah! We’ll show you we can do this without you lazy Ghouls!” the second soldier said.
&nb sp; “Right after we tell HQ about you goofing off again!” With that they ran out of the pub.
&nbs p; “Varon, sir, do you really think that’s the way a professional Ghoul should act?” a brown haired girl asked.
&n bsp; “Mana, luv, don’t get me wrong. I am a pro, but a pro ain’t someone who’s always flat out like a lizard drinking(Aussie for busy and stressed out from work). That’s cods wallop.”
“Um… Rishid-san?” she asked, begging for back up. However, the bald Ghoul remained silent, preferring to stay out of a potential argument.
  ; “Hmph!” she said, getting up, “I’m not buying it.” She then left the pub, probably to run crying to Marik about how he and Rishid were being mean to her again.
&n bsp; “No need to get all A over T(Aussie for fall over yourself) mate,” he said when Rishid started to get up as well “She ain’t no billylid(Aussie for kid). Let ‘er go.” His bald partner nodded and sat back down.
Later at Ryouta and Mokuba’s house…
& nbsp; They finally found the boy who was waiting for them in the cellar.
& nbsp; “Once we lost the war, Wutai’s become nothing but a tourist trap,” he said, bitterly, “We used to be really good martial artists, but now look at us!”
&nbs p; “Look Mokuba,” Yugi said sternly, “I’m really sorry about your hometown and all, but we want our materia back. If you give it back now, we’ll forget you were tricking us the whole time.”
&n bsp; “O-Ok,” he said, sniffling, “P-Pull the left switch over there. T-That’s where I hid it.” Yugi went to pull the lever, failing to notice the smirk on the boy’s face.
&nb sp; “What the *bleep*!” Ryuuzaki cried.
&n bsp; A metal cage dropped on to the others, leaving Mokuba a chance to get away.
&nb sp; “Nya-nya!” he crowed, pulling the bottom lid of one eye down and sticking his tongue out. “There ain’t no way you’re gonna get your materia back! Ya want it, then go find it yourself!” He started to run off. “Oh yeah, I forgot! If you find your materia, you’re gonna have to steel it. Get it? Steel it?” The raven haired boy disappeared, laughing his head off.
&nbs p; After much cursing from the others and finally getting out of the cage, the Yugi-tachi began their search for Mokuba yet again. However, this time, they noticed that the gate to the temple was open. Being the ex-SOLDIER he was, Yugi knew right away that had to have been where the tricky little brat had gone so they entered the temple grounds.
“Hey looka dis!” Jou said, going over to the temple’s gong. “Think it works?” Without waiting for an answer, the dog like creature grabbed the stick hanging next to it and whacked it against the gong. To their surprise, a hidden door beneath the dais the gong sat on sprung open.
&nb sp; “If I was a thief, I bet that’s where I’d hide my stuff,” Honda said.
&nb sp; Yugi nodded, agreeing. They headed into the hidden room and saw the raven haired boy being tied up by a bunch of thugs.
&n bsp; “Who do ya think you are?!” he yelled squirming worse than a worm on a hook. “Do you even know who I am?! Let go!!!”
&n bsp; “Keith!” Yugi shouted, recognizing an all too familiar bandanna wearing blond.
&n bsp; The former Mafia don of Wall Market laughed maniacally. “I finally got me a new babe! Better make that two!”
&nb sp; “Two?”
&n bsp; “Hey!” Mokuba yelled, insulted. “I’m not a girl!!!”
Just then more of his thugs came in carrying a bound Mana. “You’d better let go of me! I’m with Kaiba Corp.! You’re gonna regret this!!!” Keith just laughed, ogling her as they rushed out of the secret room.
