It was Saturday morning, Seto and Pernia were out in the front hall before he had to go into work.
"Here," said Seto handing her his charge card while she helped him into his white trench coat.
"What the hell is this for?" asked Pernia looking at it like it was going to bite her.
"It's a charge card," said Seto amused. "Use it to buy dresses for the balls and parties that will be next week."
"Why?" asked Pernia looking at him.
"Because this are black tie affairs," said Seto rolling his eyes heavenward. "So basically that means that females have to come to them in dresses that they can't breathe in. I doubt that you would have anything like that since you actually seem to have a brain, but for the time being you will have to a brief moment in time lose your sanity."
"Basically for a day I have to act like I have the common sense of a thermos?"
"Hai," said Seto chuckling softly.
"Good bye Niisan!" shouted Mizu and Mokuba who were still pajama clad and standing on the stairwell.
"I am not your older brother!" shouted Seto but trying to hide the smirk.
Pernia had to bite her cheek slightly to keep from laughing.
"Very funny," said Seto to Pernia before turning to his brother and Mizu. "Behave the both of you."
"Don't worry," grinned Mizu.
"We will make sure neesan gets some nice clothes!" shouted Mokuba.
Seto and Pernia exchanged a look before Seto walked out the front door.
"Alright," said Pernia. "Go get dressed you two."

Pretty woman, Won't you pardon me? Pretty woman,
I couldn't help but see, pretty woman, that you look lovely as can be.
Are you lonely just like me? Wow!
_____________________________________________________________________< br> By the time Mokuba and Mizu had finished getting dressed and eaten dinner Pernia was more then ready to start the day. She was not into clothing shopping and somehow visiting the snobby salesclerks did not seem like the most perfect day to her.
"You two ready?" she finally asked.
"Yeap!" chirped Mokuba.
"Ready!" cheered Mizu.
"Good," said Pernia handing them their coats. "Let's hurry and get this over with."
"Okay neesan," said Mokuba happily.
"Don't call me neesan," said Pernia tiredly.
Meanwhile
Seto sighed and stared out the window of his building, a sudden headache came over him and he saw flashes of the past.
Flashback*****************************************************
Seto chuckled and walked into the gardens of the Temple of Mut searching for a woman. He smiled when he saw her in the distance her dark hair shinning in the sunlight. He watched as she stood up and smiled at him, before running into his awaiting arms.
"Some interesting news beloved," murmured Seto into her hair.
"What is it?" asked the woman looking up at him.
"It would seem that the Pharaoh's mistress is the cousin of Bakura."
"The thief?"
"None other," smirked Seto.
"Does the great pharaoh know?"
"I don't think so."
"Do you plan on telling him?" she asked kissing his chest tenderly.
"I plan on leaving that up to her."
"I see," said the woman moving her mouth up to kiss her neck.
Seto groaned before falling onto the ground pulling her with him.
"You are going to run your robes," she laughed.
"How much time till the Senior Priestesses make their morning rounds?" asked Seto stroking her back.
"About an hour," said the woman.
"Good that is all the time that we need," said Seto pulling her down for a passionate kiss that set her body on fire.
End of Flashback**********************************************
Seto blinked and set back in his chair downing some aspirin.
`That woman seemed oddly familiar to me,' he thought. `However I can not seem to place her.'

Pernia, Mokuba, and Mizu walked into one of the more expensive shops to work on buying Pernia a dress. She was examining a dark blue dress when one of the women in a black business suite walked up to her.
"May I help you?" she asked looking her over with disgust.
"Yes," said Pernia. "How much is this?"
"That wouldn't fit you dear," said the woman, something in her voice caused Mokuba and Mizu to stop looking at a water painting and stare at the women.
"I didn't ask if it would fit," said Pernia calmly. "I asked how much it was since there doesn't seem to be a price tag."
"We have money," said Mokuba coming to back Pernia up.
"Yeah," said Mizu angrily.
"I am sure you do dear," said the woman giving the little girl a tight lipped smile. "But unfortunately we have nothing in any of your sizes."
"Let's hope you don't have one in Mokuba's size," muttered Mizu.
"I am sorry," said the woman smiling way to sweetly at Pernia. "But I am afraid we have nothing in your size."
"Pernia-san would fit better in everything in this then you would!" shouted Mokuba angrily.
"Mokuba-chan that was uncalled for," said Pernia.
"But Pernia," began Mokuba.
Pernia shook her head and stared back at the woman.
"Are you implying that I am not good enough to come into this store?"
"I am implying nothing of the sort," said the woman. "I am saying we have nothing in here that would look good on you or fit you."
"Yeah right," said Pernia tightly. "You are saying I am white trash. Let's go you two we have better things to do with our time then to deal with a gast (A/N: Welsh for bitch)."
The moment they left the store Mokuba whirled on Pernia.
"Why didn't you tell her off?!"
"Because Mokuba," said Pernia gently stopping to explain her reasons to the boy. "Then I would have been no better then her and my mother raised me to not sink to someone's level if they make you feel like dirt."
Mokuba and Mizu exchanged a look before following the older woman back to the limo to go back to Kaiba Mansion.

When Seto opened the front door he was greeted by Pernia as usually.
"Good evening Kaiba-san," said Pernia smiling while helping him slip out of his trench coat.
"Good evening Pernia," said Seto. "Were they well behaved?"
"They were here is your card back," said Pernia handing him back his card before picking up her bag to leave.
"How did the shopping go?" asked Seto wondering why she didn't have any dress bags.
"As I would have expected it to go," said Pernia before shutting the door.
Seto frowned and turned toward the stairwell to see Mokuba and Mizu seating on a landing in their pajamas. He frowned when he realized they looked like they had been crying.
"What is it?" asked Seto.
"They were mean to her," said Mizu softly.
"Yeah," said Mokuba. "Real mean to her."
Seto frowned and turned back to look at the door that Pernia had left.
Pernia's Apartment Building
Pernia sighed and walked into her apartment setting her bag on the floor and picking up her cat.
"You know Nile," said Pernia softly. "Human's can be really, really cruel and yet never touch you. You are lucky that cats aren't that way."
Pernia had just sat down on her couch when someone knocked on her door.
"I wonder who that could be," said Pernia getting up.
Pernia opened the door and frowned when she saw Seto standing before her. Seto frowned and made his way inside, took one look around the apartment before turning to Pernia.
"You and your cat are going to stay with us while you watch my brother and the little demon from hell; and while you accompany me to the balls," declared Seto. "Get packed now!"
"Kaiba-san!" said Pernia shocked.
"What are you doing still staring at me?!" he demanded. "Get packed!"
"Um right," said Pernia slowly moving to pack a few bags.

Pernia awoke to find Mokuba and Mizu staring her in the face.
"What the pieklo (Polish for hell)?!" she demanded seating up. "Mokuba-chan, Mizu-chan what are you two doing here?!"
"You are in our house remember," grinned Mokuba.
"Oh yeah," said Pernia running a hand through her hair. "What do you two want?"
"Niisan wants you to get up!" chirped Mokuba.
"He is taking us shopping so you can get some dresses!" grinned Mizu.
"Does he actually have the time to do that?" asked Pernia looking at them.
"He is the president of Kaiba Corps," said Mokuba. "He can do whatever he wants. Now come on get up!"
"Alright," said Pernia rolling her eyes. "Get out so I can dress will you?"
An hour later Pernia, Mokuba, Mizu, and Seto were in the limo heading toward a different store that had a better selection of dresses for Pernia to choice from. The moment they entered Seto told Mizu and Mokuba to seat in a corner and play chess while he and Pernia dealt with the salesclerks.
"Can I help you?" asked the manager walking up to them.
"Hai," said Seto handing the woman her credit card. "I would like for you to find some lovely ball gowns for my friend."
The woman smiled at Pernia as Seto pushed her forward for the woman to inspect.
"Very well Kaiba-san," said the woman snapping her fingers and three other women came before Pernia. "We will see what we can do. Girls!"
Immediately the three girls came upon Pernia holding out dresses for her to examine. Seto just set up his laptop on a coffee table and began to work on things while drinking coffee. It was another hour before Seto was finally finished checking over the reports and looked up to see Mokuba and Mizu not in their corner and Pernia trying on clothing. He went in the direction of the changing rooms to see if she had seen the two kids; when he got in front of the small curtained off room she was in he felt two pairs of hands shoving him inside.
Seto arms went out immediately and planted themselves on either side of a woman's body. He found himself looking down at a woman's cleavage; she was trying to hide it with the two of the red dress she was trying on. He glanced up quickly their noses nearly touching and faint blush forming on both their cheeks.
"Kaiba-san!" stammered Pernia in shock.
"Gomen nasa," whispered Seto slowly.
The two of them blinked when they heard snickering from two people.
"Mokuba! Mizu!" they shouted together.
Seto stormed out of the changing room and stared down at the two of them with a faint blush still evident on his nose. Mokuba grinned and took a picture of him before he and Mizu rushed back to their chess game giggling.
