Chapter 3

Bring Me to Life

Yugi's POV

That despicable bastard!!! I know I shouldn't be offended since I'm not a girl and all but that was still a very vulgar thing to say.

"Hey bitch, want to go out with me tonight?"

I glared into the eyes of what was obviously a freshman only a few inches taller than me. Did he think that in high school every girl was a slut and that if you call her a bitch they would go out with you? Anger boiled in my veins. I've had enough of this I'm better than you crap. I'll show this guy who is truly a bitch.

I grabbed his shirt collar and pulled him down to my eye level. I glared at him coldly, making sure that he understood how I feel about him.

Panic and fear flooded his eyes as he squeaked like a mouse cornered by a cat, " I-I-I'll tak-ake th-th-at a-as a-a n-n-no?"

"What did you think I said? Yes? To a bastard like you, go burn yourself in Hell!!! I wouldn't go out with you even if you were the last member of humanity on earth that is if you even count as a human!!"

In a whirl of colors, I departed to my next class, chemistry.

Seto's POV

School is pointless. I don't need to be educated for as you can see I am already a very successful businessman. However, I do need high school credit and a diploma. My mediocre older twin brother seems to think that high school is enjoyable. How pathetic. School for me is just torture. However, to make it worse, I had to start feeling for Ryou, that pathetic weakling friend of Yami's. Despite the fact that Ryou is weak and naive, I still felt my heart stir for him. This is one of my most shameful secrets, being gay. If Yami or anyone else knew, they would only mock me.

Chemistry is my second period class. It is one of my least favorite classes, since we were required to have a lab partner. My lab partners, coincidentally, all happened to be flirtatious females who try to seduce me. However, I managed to scare them away. To them I am only a trophy that they can flaunt. No one truly cares about me. All I am to this world a tool that everyone can manipulate.

Yugi's POV

… that I know what I'm without

You can't just leave me

Breathe into me and make me real

Bring me to life…

I smiled as I heard one of my favorite songs, "Bring Me to Life" by Evanescence. It always cheers me up when I'm in a particularly tempestuous mood. I took a deep breathe as stood quietly out of my chemistry classroom. Hopefully, Yami wouldn't be present in this class. If he is there, I would wrap my hands around his vile throat and garrote him.

I stopped my CD player. I took a deep breath to calm my rioting nerves. Cold unfeeling metal, much like this world, met my hand as I imperceptibly pushed the door into the room of my class.

Seto's POV

I turned my gaze to the unceremonious door that is the entrance to hell. Standing motionlessly in front of the door was a diminutive, stoic girl with fierce, yet gentle amethyst irises. Her attire spoke of her rebellious and unique personality.

"Class, I would like you to meet the new member of our class, Yuki Mino," Niwakago-sensei introduced nonchalantly.

Yuki strode to the front of the class and softly whispered, "Ohayo."

The students all nodded their own greetings.

The teacher took no notice and stated casually, "Well, since Kaiba-san is the only student without a lab partner, then you can be his lab partner, Mino-san."

I watched with faint interest, as the girl, Yuki, was jolted out of her thoughts by the mention of my name. Her orbs flashed with anger for a brief second before it was hidden by glassy impassiveness. I decided to observe her reaction once she distinguishes me.

I rose to my feet and said frigidly, "I am the `Kaiba-san' that Niwakago-sensei referred to. My name is Seto Kaiba."

Relief flickered across Yuki's brilliant sparkling eyes before a brief warm smile touched her burgundy lips like the sun rising over the wine colored ocean at dawn.

"I'm honored to be your lab partner, Kaiba-san," was her charismatic reply.

I knew immediately that she was different from all the other females who had been my lab partner.

Seto's POV

I listened as Yuki sang softly to the song playing on her CD player. She has such a beautiful voice. The song of a nightingale sounds like the grating of nails against a chalkboard compared to Yuki's singing.

"How can you see into my eyes like open doors, leading you down into my core, where I've become so numb without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold, until you find it there and lead it back home…"

"What song are you singing?" I was completely stunned when I heard the words come out almost gently.

Yuki flashed her soothing smile at me and answered cheerfully, "Bring Me to Life by Evanescence, do you want to listen to it?"

Numbly, I nodded. No one ever treated me with such sincerity. Well maybe Yami, Mokuba, and my mother, but Yami's might be being blunt and Mokuba doesn't understand this sort of thing and my mother, well, I'm not sure if she was honest or not. I leisurely took the headphones from Yuki's hands. Warmth seeped into my being when our fingers grazed each other. Hesitantly, I hooked the headphones behind my ears.

"…Now that I know what I'm without, you can't just leave me, breathe into me and make me real, bring me to life!"

"…Wake me up inside, wake me up inside, call my name and save me from the dark, bid my blood to run before I come undone, save me from the nothing I've become, bring me to life!"

"…Frozen inside without your touch without your love, darling only you are the life among the dead!"

"…All this time I can't believe I couldn't see, kept in the dark but you were there in front of me, I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems, got to open my eyes to everything, without a thought without a voice without a soul, don't let me die here there must be something more, bring me to life!"

Yugi's POV

Seto Kaiba is very different from Yami Kaiba yet they are very much alike too. They are opposites and yet they are not. Seto-san is ice, while Yami-san is fire. From my observations, Seto-san must have been through a lot. He is so cold and troubled. I will guide him through the darkness. Yami-san must have been through a lot in the past too, but he got over it.

Hmmm… that was more serious than I had originally planned. Oh well, I think it's good. Switching between thinking like Seto and thinking like Yugi is kinda tough.

Oh yeah, Yugi's headphones are the type that goes around the back of your head rather than the top of it.

I thought `Bring Me to Life' matched Seto's personality.

Betcha didn't think that Mokuba would be in here did ya?

I think I gave Yugi a lot of my personality traits.

Sorry didn't update earlier, too busy with life.

Review!!!

I'll update as soon as I can!! ~_*
