Chapter 8: A Discovery Made

School was finally over. And no one had forgotten what happened today. Yugi was waiting for his friends in front of the school (Yugi, what’s wrong?) Yami asked. “Nothing. I’m just worried about Leona. She felt heart broken today.” Yugi answered to the spirit of the millennium puzzle. “Kaiba didn’t have to hurt her like that! The gang and I didn’t know that she knew about Kaiba’s past.” Yugi said. (You have to understand, Yugi. A person like Kaiba is like a dark storm ready to cause harm to anyone if anyone crosses him. He still has unanswered questions in his mind and in his heart. He’s still struggling with himself) Yami told him. “Hey Yugi!” Tea called out. Yugi saw his friends and said, “Hi guys.” “Yuge are you alright?” Joey asked. “No, I’m worried about Leona.” Yugi said. “We should go over to her house and see if she’s ok.” Tristan said.
“We don’t know where she lives.” Joey said. “I snuck into the permanent records office and wrote down her address.” Tristan told him. “For once, Tristan you sneaking into a place are really for a good cause even though it was wrong.” Tea said. The gang headed to Leona’s house. When they got there, Leona’s mom opened the door. “Hi, we’re here to see Leona.” Yugi told her. “She hasn’t come home yet.” Leona’s mother told them. “What? She’s not home yet, but school ‘s over.” Yugi told her. Leona’s mother started to get worried. “Don’t worry miss, we’ll find her. Tristan and Tea, you guys stay here in case she comes home. Joey and I’ll check every corner of the city.” Yugi told his friends. The three of them nodded in agreement. “Come on Joey.” Yugi said as he ran to the direction of the school.
At the Kaiba mansion, Kaiba had just gotten home when, “Seto, you’ve got to check out the security cameras.” Mokuba told his brother as he got inside the mansion. Kaiba went into the security room and saw Mokuba “What is it Mokuba?” Kaiba asked. “Check out the security camera on the left screen. It was the day when Leona came over. See anything unusual?” Mokuba asked. Kaiba enlarged the screen to see that there was someone else in the living room when Kaiba had explained about his past to Leona. “A rare hunter.” Kaiba said annoyed. “That’s how the whole school knows about my past. Leona was telling me the truth. And I treated her like I normally would treat Wheeler.” Kaiba said to himself.
Mokuba looked at his brother and asked, “You didn’t hurt her did you?” Kaiba gave a slight nod. “Seto, I thought you liked her. How could you do that to her?” Mokuba asked. “I was so blinded by anger I couldn’t think straight. Mokuba I don’t like her.” Kaiba said and then took a deep breath. “I love her.” Kaiba finished. “I knew it big brother.” Mokuba said smiling. “She’s the first person I know who gave me something that not even Yugi and those pathetic morons could do for me. She gave her friendship and trust. And I treated her like dirt!” Kaiba said while slamming his first into the wall.
Kaiba walked towards the front door. “Mokuba, come on let’s go.” Kaiba said. Mokuba followed his brother and asked, “Where are we going?” “To set things straight.” Kaiba told him and walked towards the direction of Leona’s house. Meanwhile, Yugi and Joey were searching the school. “Any luck, Joey?” Yugi asked. “Nope, what about you?” Joey asked. Yugi shook his head. “Come on let’s try downtown.” Yugi said and Joey followed. They weren’t aware that the rare hunters were watching them. (Master Marik, Yugi and his pathetic friends are searching for the girl. Shall I stop them?) one rare hunter said. (No let those fools continue their search party. My only concern is Kaiba. Make sure he finds the note. After that, the fun will begin.) Marik told his rare hunter.
In an abandoned old ware house, (WH-where am’ I) Leona thought as she finally woke up. Leona opened her eyes, but could only see darkness. She tried to mover, but couldn’t. She heard chains rattling as she tried to move. (What’s going on? Why am’ I chained?) “So, you’ve finally woken up.” Said a voice from the shadows. Leona could see a small glow of light. The light grew bigger and revealed Marik. “You better stay away from me.” Leona told him. Marik evilly smiled and said, “I won’t hurt you just yet. For your sake, pray that Kaiba will come. Then, the real torment will begin” Leona looked down at the floor and thought (I doubt Kaiba’s gonna come.) and was once again consumed again by darkness.
