Bloody Life

Chapter 3: The Catalyst

Gozaburo Kaiba. Everyone flinched at that hated name. The man was getting old though. Gozaburo stood about six foot, gray hair, yellow eyes, and full of evil. “Come in and take and take a seat,” Gozaburo sneered. Kairi and Seto sat down in the two brown leather chairs on the opposite side of the desk facing the evil man. Gozaburo flashed a wicked smile, “So, what is this all about?” Kairi smiled at him politely, “Sir, we have a proposition for you. This here is Seto.” Gozaburo interrupts rudely, “Just tell me the proposition!” Seto bows his head slightly in respect, “I have come because the word is; you need an heir to your company.” Gozaburo became instantly furious, “I-I w-will…!” He began to have a problem speaking. Seto shot a glance at Kairi. Kairi had her eyes closed tightly as she concentrated on something he could not see. That's when Gozaburo's eyes went blank and glazed over, “Hand me the documents.” Kairi didn't move, so Seto picked up the documents and handed them to Gozaburo. In a daze, Gozaburo signed over the company to Seto Ketsueki.

Kairi released her hold on Gozaburo's mind once the papers were back in Seto's hands. Gozaburo, now with hazy yellow eyes, leaned back into the chair. Kairi led Seto out of the room. They stopped at the secretary and handed her a copy of the signed documents. Once outside Kairi stops, turns around, and looks up at Seto. “Since all went well, just follow me and I will show you my secret hideout.” “But Kairi, shouldn't we get back to the house?” Seto questioned. “Are you really that afraid of my big bad vampire brother?” Kairi teased. Seto's voice faltered, “No, I'm not afraid.”

Kairi smiled and grabbed his hand. She led them through the city and to the park. It was Saturday, so masses of little children scurried around playing numerous different games. But Kairi led Seto to the corner of the park. In that corner was an alcove of trees. The two sturdy trees at the entrance leaned into each other creating a natural over hang. Even though this area was left unattended it was still beautiful. Miscellaneous flowers bloomed, the grass, a soft green, was over grown, and the trees' branches hung inward as if they were protecting and shielding the alcove. “Isn't it miraculous?” Kairi exclaimed breath less. Seto smiled, “Yes, yes it is."

Kairi crossed over to the other side and sat down. While leaning on the tree she pats the ground next to her. Seto hesitantly strides over and sits down stiffly down next to her. Kairi lightly laughs, “You don't have to be so on guard. I'm not going to kill you.” “But I might accidentally kill you.” Seto quickly replied. “You wouldn't do that to me.” She stated wearily. Seto shrugs, “You're right.” Kairi seemed confused, “What do you mean; I'm right?” Seto smirks, “Yes, you are right. I could never harm such a beautiful and brilliant lady.” Kairi blushes the color of a shocking pink. “You're just saying that.” Kairi stated just above a whisper.

Kairi tilted her head up to look at Seto, while Seto relaxes and tilts his head down to look at her. Seto leans his head down further; to make sure she wanted it too. Kairi leans up so their lips meet in a soft kiss. They part and Kairi scoots into his lap, “I love you Seto.” Seto barely had time to say it back when their lips met once more. Kairi linked her arms around Seto's neck while Seto linked his arms firmly around her waist, as to deepen the kiss.

After about twenty minutes of that they laid peacefully on the ground in each other's arms. But that's when Kairi suddenly sat up. Seto looked at her in alarm, “What's wrong?” Kairi stood up and pulled Seto with her, “Seto, we need to get back. So Kokoro doesn't get suspicious.” Seto nodded and they hurriedly left back to Atemu's mansion.
