Prelude to Darkness
**~~~~~*****~~~~~**
Seto watched his younger brother play in the park with the other kids, amazed at Mokubas maturity. It was easy to forget sometimes that Mokuba was only ten, though at times like this Seto was glad he could watch his brother play and be a child now. Jou was plaing with the kids too, looking much like an overgrown child himself, and Seto had to laugh at his lover's antics. Mokuba had convinced Seto to open his heart to the blond that he had wanted for so long, to find that Jou had the same feelings for him.
As Seto watched his brother and his love play in the crowd, he became acutely aware of a blazing siren that startled him out of his revrie. "What the fuck!!!" he cursed, runing to his small family. "Come on!! hurry up!!" he said, ushering them to his limo that waited just outside the park gate for them.
"Shit!! Is that what I think it is?" Jou asked as they got into the Limo.
"Probably." Seto said. About twenty minuts later, they were going into Seto's masion and taking the elevator to the shelter that the millionare had installed a few years ago.
"Seto, whats going on?" Mokuba asked.
"About twenty years ago, when the colonys had first started showing sighns of hostility, Japan had instaled warning sirens in case of military action, so all citizens would have a chance to get to the shelters." Jou explained.
"How do we know its not a drill or something?" Mokuba asked.
"For one thing, drills are quieter." Seto said.
"Hey what about Yugi and the others?" Jou asked, naturaly worried for his friends.
"Im sure they made it to their shelters." Seto said, "For now theres not much we can do exept wait it out."
**~~~~~*~~~~~**
The next day the sirens stoped and Seto's small family emerged to surevey the damage. The Kiba mansion was untouched, but about half the city had been reduced to rubble by the bombings. Quickly the three of them cheaked the the shelters for the emerging yugi-tachi, whisking them into Seto's limo as they were found. Yugi was hysterical with a need to search for Sourgoku, who hadnt made it to their shelter, so they set about looking for the old man.
Seto was ushering the group back to the limo when he heard a voice through his collar comunicator (the little KC symbol he wore during battle city, its like a cell phone). "Kiba here." Seto said into the device that he always wore.
"Seto, I thought you might like to know some military goons are trying to break into your mansion." Noa's voice said over the miniature speaker.
"K'so!!" Seto articulated, turning to the others. "I have to get back to the mansion, come on."
"You go on ahead, I need to help Yugi locate grandpa." Jou said.
"Alright, Mokuba your coming with me." Seto said, deciding that it would be a good idea to get his brother out of the scene of carnage. "Im going to send a car to pick you all up in an hour if I cant make it back myself."
"Ok, see you later." Jou said as Seto and his brother got into the Limo.
**~~~~~*~~~~~**
About ten minuts later, Seto was leading his brother down the hall, listening to Noa's breifing on the intruders. The virtual boy had traped them in one of the virtual reality rooms and was currently terrorizing them with Dual Monsters projections.
"Noa, could you herd them into my ofice?" Seto asked.
"No, but I can give you a replica of your ofice in my VR room." Noa said. "If you promise to bring Mokuba." Seto rolled his eyes at this request, but consented to it. During Battle City, Noa had discoverd something after Gozoboronos deafeat, or almost lack therof. Mokuba had somehow touched Noa's nonexistant heart, making the virtualized boy obsessed with the youngest Kiba brother.
A moment later, they went into the VR room holding their guests and steped into.... Seto's ofice. The intruders werent in that part of the room, so Seto took his seat at the desk and Mokuba took up the right flank while Noa materialized on Seto's other side with a smirk that made Seto roll his eyes again.
"Are you ready?" Noa asked. and Seto nodded. The door oposit of the desk, the one that wasnt there in Setos actual ofice, opend and the intruders stumbled in . There were just over a half dozen of them, all military looking types, though Noa had somehow releaved them of thier more dangerous equipment.
"Hello." Seto said coldly. "May I ask why you were caught breaking into the peremises?"
"We have an international search Warent." one man said, stepping forward.
"And what, pray tell, are you searching for?" Seto asked, and if he hadnt known better he might have thought the temperature droped sudenly.
When the man balked at answereing Noa projected a roaring sound from the other room and the door gave the impresion of creeping closer to the Goons.
"THE HOLOPROJECTOR TECHNOLOGY!!!!" one of the men said, dropping to his knees clutching his ears. "They want to use it against the colonys!!"
The first man who spoke up hit the cowering one hard to stop his blubering, then turned back to Seto. "Give us the information and we'll leave peacfully." Seto asumed he was their leader since everyone seemed to be taking orders from him.
"I'm NOT going to let my technology be used for war." Seto said, rising. "Come on." he said to Mokuba as he headed for the door that led out, and Mokuba followed him. Seto was almost to the door when he heard first Noa then Mokuba cry out, one with surprise and the other with pain. Seto whiped around to find that one military goon had captured Mokuba while another lat stuned under, or more acuratly through, Noa's feet. The man holding Mokuba had a knife presed to the boys throat. "Shit..." Seto said.
"Dont Move!" leader said, "If you want your brother to live you'll give us a disk containing the software and blueprints for all of the holographic crap and you'll let us go free."
"You bastards!" Seto said, feeling completely helpless and full of rage at the same time. The billionare looked imploringly at Noa but at the striken look on the boys face realized he too felt the agony that came with Mokuba's capture and could think of nothing to do. "Fine." he said, nodding to Noa who snaped out of his stunned expresion long enough to snap his fingers theatricly while activating a program to open up a section of the wall revealing a computer terminal that was intergrated to one of the 'real' walls.
After a few minuts at the computer, it reliquished a CD in a clear jewl case to the elder Kiba brother. "Here." He said turning back to where the goons had circled around the one holding Mokuba and the Leader steped forward to take the disk from Kiba. "Now release my Brother."
"Not untill we're home free, now lead the way out of this freak show." The man said, and Seto led the men out of the VR room and to the front yard where a helecopter waited for them. All of the men ran to the machine and climed aboard taking Mokuba with them.
"YOU BASTARDS!!!" Seto yelled as the helecopter took off.
"We'll send him back when we're satisfied with the information you've given us." the leader yelled as Mokuba strugled against the men holding him.
"Big Brother!!" he cried, kicking and fighing the men who were strugling to retain their grip on the boy.
"MOKUBA!!" Seto yelled following the helecopter for a dozen paces. "Mokuba..." he whisperd again as the helecopter went out of sight.
**~~~~~**~~~~~**
Mokuba continued to struggle long after the Kiba mansion was lost from sight as the chopper flew away from the setting sun. "LET ME GO!!! LET ME GO!!!" Mokuba yelled kicking and biting untill they gaged him. Unable to findor make restraints though, their leader pushed his head toward the open side of the chopper.
"Do you realy want to jump into that?" the man asked as Mokuba looked to an endless expanse of water. Mokuba shook his head and tried to pull back from the yawging opening, though he couldnt distance himself from it untill the man alowed him to back away. "Good." the man said and Mokuba found himself tossed into a corner on equipment that hadnt been used.
"What are we going to do with him?" one of the men asked, motioning to the now crying boy.
"If the disk is fake or not what we need, we'll kill him." the leader said dispasionatly. "Why the hell didnt you capture the other one?"
"I tried to sir, but I passed right through when I tried to grab him." one of the men said.
"Well why was that?" the leader demanded, turning to Mokuba.
"Go to hell!!" Mokuba said when they took the gag out of his mouth, only to be hit hard in the face.
"Tell us you fucking brat!" the leader said, beating Mokuba until the boy relented.
"Noa's mind was downloaded into a computer mainframe when his body was destroyed." Mokuba said miserably. "He was a hologram."
"So we couldnt grab him because he wasnt real? Why the hell was he there then?" another man asked.
"Yea, tell us!" some other guy demanded. "come one..." he said soothingly, Infuriatingly.
"Bastards!!" Mokuba said.
"Aww, see." the leader said, "You need to stop letting your mouth run off like that." the man then punched Mokuba hard in the stomach. "Hmmm..." he said, running his calousd thum along the boys lip.
"Ugh!!!" Mokuba said, trying to pull away from him.
"Come on boys what do you say we have a little fun?" the leader asked stepping closer to the boy, and most of the men laughed and jeered.
"Thats sick!" one man said though, looking away.
"Your such a prude Solo!" some of the other men said, and Solo looked away upset.
Mokuba tried not to understand what was going on as a few of the men leered sugestively at him. "NO!!! Stay away from me!!" he yelled as the leader reached for him again.
"Thats enough!" Solo said standing up. "Its one thing to try to aquire more information, but you cant just torture him for your own amusement and pleasure!!"
"Dont get your knickers in a twist!" the leader said sitting down. "We were just scaring the kid."
"Righ..."Solo said, also sitting back down. For the next few hours of the trip they were all silent, untill land came into view to the east of the chopper. Mokuba felt hope and despair war in his heart at that sight, and thinking quickly he made his plan.
"YOU BASTARDS!!! I WANNA GO HOME!!!" Mokuba yelled, throwing himself at the leader when the shore wasnt more than two miles from the chopper. The leader hit him several times on the head and shoulders, making the boy dizzy and disoriented but he regained enough wit to know what the next part of his plan called for. In the second it took for the men to realize that Mokuba hadnt been beaten and to reorganize themselves the boy threw himself out the side of the helecopter and fell into the icy waves below.
