Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ DISCOVERY ❯ Insight ( Chapter 2 )

Previously I Discovery: Seto Kaiba talked about his love for his puppy and went out for a late night walk.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++

It was around 10 o'clock pm on a Thursday night when Seto Kaiba left the Kaiba Estate. Seto Kaiba, CEO of the multi-billion dollar KaibaCorp, started walking to the poor and run down side of Domino City, Japan. Kaiba walked for about a half an hour before he realized where he was. "Okay feet why have you taken me here?" Kaiba questioned aware that there would be no answer.

The streets were littered with broken glass, thrash, and anything else one could imagine would be littered in the streets of the poor. Buildings were barley standing on their foundations. Hookers and prostitutes lined the sidewalks. They were in hope of being picked up to get a little cash to support themselves.

Old men and women along with young children were dressed in rages. Some were sleeping in the side alley under boxes and old newspapers. Streetlights were either out or broken.

Graphite lined street signs and the sides of many of the near by buildings. Apartment complexes stood closely compacted in small areas.

Druggies and drug lords resided outside buying and selling drugs of side these complexes. Drug lords were selling to children as young as eight or nine years of age.

A little ways down the road stood an old shaggy bar. Commotion could be heard coming from within the bar. Kaiba walked closer to the bar. He was curious about what the entire ruckus was about.

When he neared he saw an older man in his mid forties. The said man was pushed out of the bar. The older man could barley stand on his own two feet. It was evident that the man was intoxicated.

He spoke with a slur. "Ah cum fuon, Jac, ill ya ou tomorroo." (ah come in jack I'll pay you tomorrow)

As Kaiba neared closer he could smell years worth of drinking and smoking. Another man appeared at the threshold. The man looked well off, middle class stature. He was tall and lean with black hair and deep green eyes almost the colour of an emerald. It was apparent that this man unlike the other was in fact sober.

The man spoke with prefect elegance and smoothness. He could pass off as a public speaker for the government. "Sorry, Mr. Wheeler, I do not believe that would be possible,"

"And yi ot?" (and why not) the drunk yard responded.

"You already have a high bill and you say the exact same thing every time. You never once have come through on your word." The tall man stated.

"I romus tis ime I ill." (I promise I will) The man known as Mr. Wheeler tried to compromise.

"I'm sorry, sir, that will not work this time around. I have a business to run and a family to support. I cannot keep depending on your word when I know you will not come through for me." The man pointed out.

"Ah, sum fuon, Jac." (ah come on Jack) Mr. Wheeler pouted.

"Sorry, Mr. Wheeler, I will not give into your childish pleading and I suggest that you go home and spend some time with that son of yours. Go to your son instead of to my bar and stop drowning your life away in alcohol." After the man known as jack said that he walked right back into his bar ignoring Mr. Wheelers antics.

The drunken man then left a few minutes latter. He was mumbling some incoherent words, which no one could decipher. He nearly stumbled in his intoxicated state into Seto Kaiba. He almost nearly knocked poor Kaiba down along with himself.

"Otta my way, punk." Mr. Wheeler shouted, or at least trying to, at Kaiba.

Kaiba then got a good look at the man. He was dressed in raged pants and sweater. There were holes and burn marks, most likely from cigarettes, all over his clothing. Stains could be seen on his sweater and pants. He had short dusty blonde hair and brown blood shot eyes.

SetoPOV

What a fool wasting his money on booze and alcohol. I really feel sorry for his son. If you think about it he does look remarkably a lot like my puppy. Wait a minute didn't that man called, what was it, Jack call him Mr. Wheeler?

Could this be Joey's father? I sure do hope it is not, but I don't know any other Wheeler's. Do I? No, I don't think that I recall knowing another Wheeler. But Joey I don't believe is this poor to live in this part of Domino City. Then again who really knows.

I really don't know much about id life outside of what I see at school. Not even his friends know what his home life is like. All I know and think they know also is that his mom and sister, Serenity I believe it was, left him and his dad when he was nine years old.

Not to mention it Joey was nowhere to be seen today at school. This is very weird if I think about. I never to remember seeing Joey miss a single day of school whether he was sick or healthy.

I think I will follow this man just in case. I wanna see where he goes just for good measure. My heart is telling me something bad is about to happen. I normally don't do this type of thing unless it involves Mokuba or myself, but this is too strong of a feeling to just ignore.

RegPOV

Seto Kaiba followed the drunk Mr. Wheeler thought many alleys. He stayed a good distance behind so not to alert the man of his presence. They alley's they traveled down were badly light. Boxes and trash was discarded everywhere. They passed many abandoned warehouses. Stray cats and dogs along with rats and mice were shifting through the trash for a meal to eat. A good twenty-five minutes later they reached their final destination.

SetoPOV

We finally arrived at an old looking house. The shutters were falling off and there was beer bottles everywhere of side the house. I could clearly smell years worth of alcohol and cigarettes. I don't see how anyone could live in a place like this. I'm really starting to hope that this is not Joey's father. I sincerely do hope that this is where Joey does not live.

I watch the man walk into the house. I stay behind in the shadows. I walk around to the back of the nearly collapsing house. I come to a window. I look in and what meets my eyes is a sleeping Joe-pup.

He looks so peaceful sleeping. But what I'm really startled by is that he's sleeping on the floor. You would think he would be sleeping in a bed. I move on to get a better look inside the house.

The next window I come to is that of a kitchen. The place is a total mess. It looks like a tornado hit. Dishes are piled high in the sink and there are beer bottles everywhere. I move on and come to the living room. The living room just like the kitchen is a mess. A small TV resides in the middle of the room with a rugged old coach, with spring sticking out of it, in front of it. There are stains all over the carpet. The stains are yellow, white, green, brown, black, and red in colour.

I see Mr. Wheeler head into the kitchen. Everything looks fine. I'll have to look talk to Joey tomorrow. I start to leave on my way. When I almost halfway down the street something hits me. WERE THOSE BLOOD STAINS ON THE CARPET?

I turn a round when I hear a blood-curdling scream coming from where I was. I turn and run into an old lady.

"Sorry Mama." I say.

"No worries son, but what got you so upset?" she say calmly.

WHATS GOT ME UPSET WHATS GOT ME UP SET ILL TELL YOU JOEY, MY PUPPY, JOEY RA DAMN IT.

I ask her calmly. "Didn't you hear someone scream bloody murder?"

"Yes, but there's nothing I can do." She states unfazed.

"WHAT?" I nearly scream

"you heard me I can't do anything. I tried once and it only made matters worse. I suggest sonny that you stay out of it unless you wanna see that poor boy dead."

What is she talking about? SHIT. This happened before. JOEY!?

I run back to the house and the sight that meets my eyes is not pretty. I see the man known as Mr. Wheeler looking at Joey with anger and lust. I want to take out his eyes just for looking at you like that.

I then see the drunken man Joey calls a father hit and kick him repeatedly. And I wan to take off his hands just for touching you.

I can't believe what is going on in front of me. Please say that my eyes are deceiving me. I run towards the house to stop this torment to my beautiful puppy. Just when I reach the front down to kick it down I here a gunshot.

F**K! I break down the door and find Mr. Wheeler out on the ground unconscious. I look at Joey; he's covered in bruised and blood. I want to rip out his heart just for hurting you. And I want to break his mind down but I cant do that now. You need my help puppy whether you like it or not. I go to my puppy barley fitting consciousness.

"Kaiba?" He says weakly.

"Shush, its gunna be okay. Its gunna be okay Joey." I say soothingly letting my guard down completely.

I pick my Joe-pup up and head out the door running as fast as I can.

"T-thanks, Ka-" I hear him say before he goes limp in my arms.

Damn he's light even for all I see him eat. No time to think these thoughts I have to get him to a hospital and fast. Times running out and I can fell it.

Good thing the hospital is close by. I run in through the front doors. Doctors immediately come running up to me and taking my puppy away. I feel a pang of sadness from losing my puppy in my arms. They take him directly to the emergency room.

RegPOV

It been a good two hours since Seto Kaiba took his late night walk and found his broken puppy. Kaiba had enough since to go and call they pup's friends. Seto was currently pacing back and forth in the waiting room awaiting news on Joey's condition.

Yugi sat in Yami's lap. Yami had his arms protectively around Yugi's waste. Tristan, Ryou and Tea could not come to the hospital at an early hour. Serenity could not be reached. The rest of the Yugi gang was going to come to the hospital tomorrow after school.

"Kaiba, please settle down your scaring Yugi." Yami Stated.

"I am calm Yami." Kaiba threw back harshly.

"Well if you call broken chairs and a hole in the wall calm then you got problems, Kaiba." Yami pointed to the chair in the wall.

Just then the doctor came out of the emergency room.

"Is there a Seto Kaiba present?" The doctor asked.

"I'm Seto Kaiba" Kaiba stated the obvious.

"Well, thanks to your quick thinking Mr. Joey Wheeler will pull through." The doctor told Kaiba.

"How is he?" a worried Yugi finally spoke up.

"He's stable, but in ICU."

"What is the extent to his injuries?" Kaiba demanded to know.

"Well, lets see.he has several gashes, mostly made by a knife, internal swelling and bleeding, a sever concussion, his ribs are either broken fractured or bruised, 2 cracked vertebrates, bruised spinal column,..." the doctor quoted off of his clip board before it was snatched away by a stubborn worried Seto Kaiba.

SetoPOV

I grab the clipboard away from the doctor. He's taking way to long to tell me what happened to my Joey. I continue to read from where he left off. Two broken legs, broken arm, fractured wrist, and signs of severe rape. RAPE!? MY PUPPY WAS RAPED!? Someone is going to pay dearly for doing this to my puppy.

"Mr. Kaiba, sir, I'm pretty sure I know who did this to him." The doctor knocks me out of my thoughts and snatches the clipboard back.

"His father, Right?" I snarl

"Yes and I believe he is the one that also raped him."

Now I'm really pissed off. I wanna make him regret the day he laid his figures on my Joey.

"You may go see him now if you wish he's in room 517."

Yugi and Yami visit Joey first but not for long. O guess Yugi couldn't handle seeing he's best friend hooked up to all these machines.

I sit down I the chair near his bed. The last thin on my mind before I feel asleep was I want to make him give back everything he took from you.
