Dead End Street

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! DUH! If we did, the show wouldn't be fit for kids, that's for sure!

Warning: This story contains shouenen-ai (guy/guy relationships) and yaoi (guys having sex with guys). It also contains coarse language and violence. If you don't like it, or become offended by such things, what are you doing here? Haven't you figured out by now that all our writing contains this stuff?

{…} Tony's thoughts

DD: *dances around* SEQUEL!! OH YEAH!!

Tris: *groans* Oh, man!

Seto: If I write you a check, will you stop now?

YD: No! We weren't going to start this now, but gralnak asked us to.

DD: Anything for that little cutie. *squishes gralnak* This one's for you, boy-o!

YD: As in "dedicated to you". *hugs*

Prologue

~*~*~*~*~

"I'm sorry, sir," The officer said. "But until we can contact his next of kin, we can't give out any information."

"His parents are dead." Tony Andretti had been arguing with the man for over half an hour.

He had come to the police station directly from the airport, anxious for information. It had taken him months to raise the money to get to Japan and already he had hit a brick wall.

"We're trying to contact a maternal aunt. Once we have her permission, we can let you know."

"Forget it." Tony turned away, discouraged.

He left the police station and went across the street to a small café, buying a coffee and sitting down at a table in one corner.

His only hope was to find Tristan, but he didn't even know where to begin looking. He didn't know the names of Tristan's parents, though he knew the names of his friends; even what they looked like…Tristan had shown him pictures once.

Maybe he could start there. He knew Tristan's best friend, Joey, was a high ranked duelist and that Yugi Motou was number one in the world.

Inspired, he stood, going over to the magazine rack, searching among the publications until he found one dedicated to Duel Monsters. On the cover was a picture of Seto Kaiba, indicating an article inside announcing the engagement of the former champion.

Flipping through to the proper page, he was shocked to see a picture of the CEO and Tristan.

{I thought he couldn't stand the guy.}

A small side note to the story told him about an upcoming exhibition match. It was a tag-team affair with Kaiba and Joey dueling Yugi and some guy named Yami.

{Maybe Tristan will be there. He has to know something about what happened to Brad. I need to know. And when I find out, someone's going to pay for taking Brad from me.}

Tristan pulled Seto into his arms, feeling his lover's sweat-slick body still trembling.

"Ti amo, amante." Tristan brushed the damp brown hair back and kissed Seto gently.

"I love you too." Seto laid his head against Tristan's shoulder, yawning. "I think I need to start coming home from work early more often."

Tristan chuckled. "We'd better get up before Mokuba gets back from Yugi's."

"Mmm…" Seto snuggled in closer. "Do we have to?"

"Yes. Ryou and Kendra are coming over with him, remember?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. They're staying the night. Kennie starts work at Kaiba Land tomorrow."

"Isn't Ryou's father back in town?"

"He got back last week." Seto replied. "That's why they're staying. They need some time alone together."

"She's still not feeling well, is she?"

Seto shook his head. "She can't seem to shake it. I have to wonder how much of it is stress induced though."

"Well, maybe once she starts making some decent money she can move out and get a place of her own."

"That's what I'm hoping. She needs to get away from her mother." Seto pulled himself from Tristan's arms. "Are you just going to lie there all day, or what?"

"You ass!" Tristan launched himself at Seto, tumbling the taller brunet back onto the bed.

Seto laughed and wrapped his arms around Tristan, kissing him. He couldn't remember a time in his life when he was so happy. He had friends, Mokuba was safe and happy and he was loved.

Life was good.

~*~*~*~*~

Seto: Tristan…we are SO dead.

Tris: What else is new?

YD: This is going to be SO much fun!!

DD: Yeah, so much planned.

Bakura: Do I get to kill someone in this one?

YD: Ummm…I'm not sure yet. Maybe.

DD: Please review. We were SO happy with all the reviews we got for One Way Street!
