Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Christmas Is A Complete Waste Of Time: A Yu-Gi-Oh Christmas Carol ❯ Cancel Chirstmas At Kaiba Corp. A Visit From Noah! ( Chapter 2 )

Chapter 2: Cancel Christmas At Kaiba Corp. A Visit From Noah!

Kaiba sighed as he began to check his stocks on the Computer in his office at Kaiba Corp.  He still couldn't get his thoughts off of what happened at the game shop.  His fault?  If they wanted to blame anyone, it was Wheeler for starting a fight with him-again!  If they wanted to blame someone else, it was his sister.  As far as he was concerned, their whole damn family's pathetic!  The world wouldn't end if the girl died!  Hell, it would've been an improvement, but if it were Joey it would be perfect.  But then who will he have to taunt and poke fun at?  Tristan? True, but it just wouldn't be the same…

"Mr Kaiba Sir?" Roland, one of Kaiba's bodyguards walked in to his office, looking a bit nervous.

"What is it Roland…" Kaiba asked, patience thin and all.

"Well…umm…Sir.  The other employees and I were just wondering…" He began, a bit intimidated by Kaiba's impatient glare.  Whatever it was, he didn't wanted to be the one to ask him of it.  But unfortunately, Roland was the one who drew the short straw.

"About what?"

"Well…the others wondered if you would be so kind to, give us the holiday off, as well as-"

Kaiba cut him off.  "Let me guess: For Christmas?"

"Well…yeah.  But-"

"Let me put it to you this way Roland: Anyone who doesn't show up here tomorrow will be fired, ON THE SPOT!" Kaiba slammed his fist on the desk, hard.

"But Mr. Kaiba, it's Christmas!" Roland protested!

"Christmas, Christmas, Christmas!  Do you know how many people have annoyed me with that word today?  I only have one thing to say about Christmas: Bah Humbug! That's what I have to say!  Now get back to work Roland…"

"But Mr. Kaiba!"

"I SAID GET BACK TO WORK!" Kaiba screamed.  "AND TELL THOSE FOOLS OUTSIDE TO GET RID OF THOSE DECORATIONS! I DON'T BELIEVE IN THAT CRAP, AND I'LL BE DAMNED IF I HAVE ANY OF IT IN MY BUILDING!"

Roland sighed as he left the office. The other employees, from accountants to secretaries, had listened, eyes wide.

"I take it he said 'no.'" On of them, Ted from Development, said, which caused a scoffed from Roland.

"He wasn't even going to consider it.  He was flat out against it!" Roland explained.

"GET BACK TO WORK!" Even with the door closed, the loud voice of Seto Kaiba could still be heard. "THIS IS THE PERFECT TIME TO GET THE JUMP ON THE COMPETITION AND I'LL BE DAMNED IF WE DON'T DUE TO THIS CHRISTMAS CRAP!  SO BACK TO WORK OR YOU'RE ALL FIRED!"

Kaiba sat back down in his chair as he sighed.  First it was that girl and her brat sister, then the geeks.  Now his employees were annoying him with Christmas.  Every year he had to go through with this crap, and usually he stood his ground and made sure that Christmas wasn't in this company, not even a hint of it.  As far as he was concerned, December was just another month to him.  Christmas…who needs it?

The black phone rang as Kaiba picked up the phone.  "Kaiba!" He answered.

"Seto?" A familiar voice was heard from the other end.

"Mokuba?"

"How are ya, Big Brother?"

"It's stressful.  Since our competitors decided to take a holiday off, this is our perfect opportunity to take the jump on them before the new year begins!" Kaiba explained to his younger brother.

"Good luck, Seto!  Oh, and before I forget, I'm planning on going over to meet with a few friends from school, and I was hoping if you could come!  I know how you feel about Christmas, but would you please come with me?"

Kaiba sighed, "Mokuba…"  Now his own brother was annoying him with Christmas.

"Please Seto! Sakura's older sister really wants to meet you!"

"Right, just like the other leeches I have to deal with at school!  Why would I want to deal with another?"

"Will you just think about it at least Big Brother?" Mokuba pleaded, which caused Kaiba to sigh.

"We'll see Mokuba…we'll see…"

"Okay Seto…" Kaiba could sense the disappointment in his voice.  "Oh, and Seto?"

"What now, Mokuba?" Kaiba said, having a feeling of what was coming next…

"Merry Christmas!" He said which caused Kaiba to sigh as he hung up.

'Now Mokuba's into this Christmas crap…' Kaiba went back to work.  After all, if he was going to get the jump on the competition, Kaiba was going to have to work very hard.

…

It was now 10 minutes till 11 and all the employees have gone home to be with their families.  "Let them," Kaiba said.  It didn't matter really, as he could do this all by himself.  Just as long as they showed up tomorrow!  Just a little bit more that needed to be done.  As Kaiba was about to make the final adjustments…

"Hello Seto!" A familiar face appeared on the screen, which caused Kaiba to blink in shock.

"Noah!?" The CEO responded.  "I thought you were destroyed!"

"Seto, Seto, Seto…" Noah sighed.  "You've become much like my father.  Always working all the time.  Neglecting your friends and family.  And still you don't even give yourself a break.

"Listen, if you're going to feed me that Christmas nonsense, you can save it for someone who cares.  I've already had enough of it today!" Kaiba switch off the monitor of his CPU.  Much to his horror, it turned back on.  "What the?"

"Your shunning of Christmas is more proof of a desperate cry of help." Noah sighed.  "Something must be done…"

"Save it for someone who cares…" Kaiba decided to, instead of shutting off the computer, leaving his office as he shut the door.  Much to Kaiba's dismay, the computers turned on, each containing the image of the cyan-haired boy.  "WILL YOU JUST LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE?!" He screamed.

Noah sighed, "Okay Seto.  But before I go, I have some news for you: Expect to have three visitors tonight."

"Hmph, like I care…" Kaiba said as he stormed off, leaving Noah to sigh.

"Okay Seto…have it your way…" Noah said before the CPU screens all shut off.

"Who does Noah think he is?" Kaiba pressed the button as he waited for the elevator to reach up to this floor.  He didn't care how he survived, let alone got into Kaiba Corp's computers, but he wasn't going to let him ruin his night. 

Kaiba took out his cell phone as he called his driver.  When he got outside of the building, he expected the limo to be there to take him home.  What mattered right now was to get home and finish the rest of his work.  He didn't felt like staying here anymore.

"Finally…" Kaiba said as the door to the elevator opened.  Unfortunately, he wasn't the only one to be here as his eyes went wide.  "You!"

That's it for this chapter!  I think we all have an idea on what' going to happen next.  Stay tuned and review and look out for the next chapter.

Preview for next chapter:

"Ishizu?" Kaiba blinked.  "How did you get in here?"

"How I arrived here is none of your concern." The Egyptian woman said.  "What matters now is that events from the past are destined to repeat itself."

Kaiba smirked.  "Ishizu, I told you once, and I'll tell you again to get it through your head:  I don't believe in those superstitious fairytales!"

"You didn't think so at the time I showed you your past through the power of my Millennium Necklace." Ishizu reminded.

"That stunt was just a trick to get me to believe that Yugi was a Pharaoh and I was a Sorcerer!  So if this past is anything like this, I'm not interested." Kaiba said as he went to step inside of the elevator.  However, the doors quickly slammed shut before he could do this!  "The hell?"

"You don't have much of a choice in this matter." Ishizu stated.  "I'm also the spirit of Christmas Past."

"You really have too much time on your hands, do you Ishizu…" Kaiba rolled his eyes.
