Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Fake Identity ❯ Man to Man ( Chapter 10 )

(This chapter is also taken from a song by Gary Allen, seen in the title, although I plan to substitute it into the characters conversations, I will place the whole song at the end of the chapter)

(Most of this chapter deals with an argument between Kaiba and Joey)

(This is what happened in the last chapter)

("You promised you'll free him" she whined down the hall , Kaiba opened the door throwing Serenity inside, she landed on her knees as she looked back at Kaiba, his cold glare froze her in her spot,

"I lied"He smirked as he shut the door locking it,

"NOO, KAIBA LET ME OUT, MY BROTHER WAS RIGHT, I SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAVE TRUSTED YOU" She screamed through her tears that fell past her cheek to the carpet, Serenity banged on the door, giving up, she slid down the door and continued to cry,

Kaiba gave a proud smile as he walked through the hall he just dragged his new treasure from,

(~Now to deal with the Mutt, unfortunately, I can't risk the police getting involved, so I'll have to get rid of the Mutt, one way or another~)

Kaiba smirked as he made his way to the room that held Joey.)

--------------------------------------

Man to Man

Half way to the room, Kaiba was greeted with two of his bodyguards, he nodded to them to follow him, it could get ugly. Arriving at the acquired location, he took out his key slowly turning the knob of the door, his bodyguards stayed on each side of the door, waiting for instructions in what to do. Quickly Kaiba opened the door, sliding his body in and shutting it at the same time.

Kaiba looked around the room, surprisingly it was empty at the looks of it, but he knew better, he walked to the center of the room, barely wavering, knowing to well were Joey was, he saw him in the corner of his eyes. He stood behind the bookshelf, like a little kid trying to hide himself from his parents, now that was pathetic.

Joey crouched on the ground, leaning against the bookshelf for support, he looked deep in thought, his head was in his hands, he whispered to himself, it sounded like apologies. Suddenly he was interrupted by the one voice he didn't want to hear.

"You know you look like hell when your stressed, Mutt" Kaiba replied surprisingly caring, but that was just a cover, Joey knew Kaiba all to well.

"Go away, just leave me and my sister alone" the sound of defeat was in Joey's voice, but what surprised Kaiba is that he dropped his accent.

"So the Mutt finally heels to his master" a smirk appeared on his dark features as he noticed that Joey's eye was turning black from were he had punched him.

Joey got up casually from his spot at first his eyes were to the ground, he made his way in front of Kaiba, his eyes still to the ground, but suddenly snapped up to see all the hatred and disgust in his brown eyes.

"If you think you can control me or my sister, you have another thing coming to ya, and I'll make sure I'm the one that gives that to you" Joey hissed,

"I already am, Mutt, don't you see you will follow what I say, for your sister sake, and your sister will obey my command for your sake" Kaiba continued to smirk this was amusing,

"Serenity would know that I can take care of myself, she doesn't need to listen to a bastard like you" Joey felt his anger about to explode taking Kaiba with him.

"Like you took care of yourself when I fought you, ha, and if you think I'm the one who stole her away, think again, she came willingly to me" Kaiba sneered,

This time Joey couldn't control his anger, with one sift motion of his fist he tried to knock that look back to México, but Kaiba was expecting that, he grabbed Joey's fist. With his other hand Kaiba waved a finger at Joey, scolding him like an animal.

"Now, now, bad dog you should hit your master" Kaiba smirked, he flung Joey back from him, watching Joey face turn red with anger,

"Were adults now, so stop playing these games, and bring it on Kaiba" Joey sneered,

"And that's so mature now isn't it, no talking just right to fists, didn't you learn that your no match for me" Kaiba smirked although he liked taunting the mutt, he rather do it with fists.

"Alright let's talk, WHAT DO YOU WANT WIT MY SISTA!?" Joey yelled, confronting Kaiba once again.

"Because I need her" Kaiba stated plainly, no emotion in his face, no excitement or show of any anger or hatred.

"Tell me Were you ever there when she needed you? Where you? Through her tears, her pain, her happiness? Did you even care?" Joey had to admit he stumped Kaiba there,

"No" Kaiba again stated flatly,

"SO WHY DO YOU THINK SHE'LL CARE FOR YOU IF YOU DIDN'T CARE FOR HER!"

"I'll make her"

"NOT WELL I'M AROUND, YOU CAN'T FORCE PEOPLE TO CARE FOR YOU, IT WOULD BE LIKE YOU TRYING TO FORCE MOKUBA TO DO SOMETHING HE DIDN'T WANT TO DO"

"That would never happen, I respect his decision"

"AND YOU DON'T THINK SERENITY IS THAT VALUABLE TO ME, KAIBA, IF YOU REALLY LOVE HER, WHY'D YA MAKE HER CRY?"

"....."

(~Ha success, if stumped him~)Joey grinned,

"YOU'RE THE ONE TO BLAME, TELL ME THAT AIN'T TRUE, FOR ALL HER TEARS THAT SHE HAD CRIED, AND DON'T THINK I DIDN'T SEE THAT BRUISE YOU LET ON HER FACE, YOUR LUCKY I DIDN'T KILL YOU THEN AND THERE"

"What will you do? bit my ankles, you couldn't get one hit, if you tried, your anger is not justified for me to even flinch at your remarks Wheeler"

"I THINK THE ONLY REASON YOU TOOK HER WAS BECAUSE SHE WALKED OUT ON THE GREAT SETO KAIBA, AND TO GET BACK AT HER YOU STOLE HER AWAY FROM HER FRIENDS, THAT WAS AN ACT OF YOUR WOUNDED PRIDE, IT'S NOT LOVE, IT'S YOUR PRIDE, SHE A WOMAN NOW, NOT SOME RUG YOU CAN WALK ALL OVER"

"SHE IS JUST A WHEELER, LOWER THEN ANYTHING IN THIS WORLD, ANOTHER PEBBLE IN PEOPLES SHOES, SHE NOT EVEN GOOD FOR A RUG, AND YOU ARE MAKING FALSE ACCUSATIONS AGAINST ME, MAYBE I WAS RIGHT ABOUT HER"

"WHAT DID YOU SAY TO HER THE NIGHT SHE WALKED OUT ON YOU, HM, WHY IS SHE HURT BECAUSE OF IT, IF I MAKE FALSE ACCUSATIONS"

"SHE IS NOTHING BUT A WHORE, AND YOUR NOTHING BUT A MUTT" Kaiba yelled, his pride was getting the best of him again, but that was suddenly slapped away when something came into contact with Kaiba's jaw.

Kaiba had a stunned expression on his face as he looked up to see Joey, holding his sore fist, but the anger still flared in him,

"I'LL KILL YA" Joey yelled as he ran towards Kaiba, this time Kaiba was ready, as he flipped Joey making him land hard to the floor.

Kaiba reached for his beeper to call the two body guards that stood on the other side of the door, they quickly made their way in.

Joey was down for the count, again winded when his back hit the ground, Kaiba stood next to his body guards watching Joey's feeble attempts to get up, when he was standing he glared at Kaiba.

"You won't be leaving this place, Wheeler so get use to it, but I won't have you in my office 24/7, so I'll leave it to my body guards, they will also be sure to give you a Kaiba welcome"

Kaiba turned and left the room,

Joey had his fists up ready for another go, even though his mind and his body told him your going to lose badly,

(~This is not going to be pretty~) Joey thought as Kaiba's bodyguards advanced on him.

------------------------------------------------------

Serenity stared out her window, it was now raining, the weather matched her mood, she had to get out of here before anything happens to her or Joey. She heard the door open and shut behind her, she froze hoping it was a maid of some sort, but she knew that was wishful thinking.

"Go away Kaiba" her voice was raspy from crying as she fought the tears back again,

"It's me, Mokuba, Seto told me to comfort you"

Serenity turned around to see Mokuba's worried face, but the questioned that lingered in her mind was why?

"Why would Kaiba care?" She growled at Mokuba,

"Because he loves you, Serenity"

"I'll believe that when I hear it from his own mouth" Serenity sat on her bed as she wiped a stray tear that fell from her eyes, Mokuba sat next to her, he knew what his brother did was wrong, and he wished he was around to stop it.

"That will be hard for Seto to admit, since we were adopted, my brother was taught, if you want something take it by force"

"I'm not an item, if he want me he could have told me, because for a while I wanted him" she couldn't help the tears, she poured her heart out to Kaiba's younger brother right then.

"In time, I'm sure my brother will see the light and he will know that to get something force is not an option"

"Kaiba will never learn"

"One: My brother is smart but stubborn, he will learn, Two: He told me to tell you to call him Seto"

"Your brother too stubborn"

"So is yours" Mokuba saw that he got a chuckle out of Serenity finally,

"Don't worry Serenity, my brother may be cold on the outside, but he is one of the nicest people in the world, he has his morals, he just needs someone to melt the ice around him"

Serenity smiled at the younger Kaiba, he was nothing like his brother, which she was glad of, maybe he was right, but that gave Kaiba no excuse to kidnap her brother and her. Suddenly there was a knock at the door, a maid came in announcing that dinner was prepared.

Serenity lost all track of time, and as the maid said dinner her stomach started to growl, Mokuba heard, as he took her hand showing her the way to the dinning room.

MAN TO MAN

BY: GARY ALLEN

You're throwin' around a lot of serious accusations

Ain't too hard to tell what you're insinuatin'

You think I'm the one who stole her away

If not for me she'd still be yours today

We're both men here so why play games

Why don't we call a spade a spade

Man to man

Tell me the truth, Tell me

Were you ever there when she needed you

Man to man

Look me in the eye, tell me If you really loved her

Why'd you make her cry

Man to man

Who cheated who

You're the one to blame

Tell me it ain't true

Man to man

Man to man

Well you think all your anger is justified

Me, I think, it's just your wounded pride

What did you really think she was gonna do

She's a real woman, not a doormat for you

You want her back, but it's too late

Why don't we just cut to the chase

Man to man

Tell me the truth, tell me

Were you ever there when she needed you

Man to man

Look me in the eye, tell me

If you really loved her

Why'd you make her cry

Man to man

Who cheated who

You're the one to blame

Tell me it ain't true

Man to man

Man to man

Tell me the truth, tell me

Were you ever there when she needed you

Man to man

Look me in the eye, tell me

If you really loved her

Why'd you make her cry

Man to man

Who cheated who

You're the one to blame

Tell me it ain't true

Man to man

Man to man Man to man...to man...to man...to man...to man...to man

Man to man...to man...to man...to man...to man...to man
