Chapter 14: Returning Home
“Let’s see which dragon is stronger.” Marik said as he summoned his Winged Dragon of Ra. “His God card is twice as big as Kaiba’s dragon. There’s no way he’d win.” Blossom said. “Blossom you’ve seen Leona beat your Winged Dragon of Ra card plenty of times with her Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Maybe he’ll win.” Katrina told her. “Yeah, but their not exactly dueling. It’s a one on one match.” Leona said. “After my God card takes care of your dragon, it will also destroy you. And then I’ll have Leona.” Marik told Kaiba.
“So, that’s what this is all about.” Blossom said. “Marik doesn’t know when to quit.” Katrina said. Leona remained quiet and thought (This has to stop.) “Marik, you won’t win. My Blue-Eyes White Dragon will crush you.” Kaiba said. “Fine then, let’s see. Winged Dragon of Ra attack!” Marik commanded. “Blue-Eyes White Dragon attack with white lightning!” Kaiba commanded. Both attacks collided with each other. Neither dragons’ attack overpowered the other, they were evenly matched. The impact was so intense that it blinded everyone.
Everyone was able to see again and what they saw was a surprising ordeal. “I can’t believe it Marik’s God card is gone.” Katrina said. “He actually did it. Impressive. Kaiba’s dragon actually beat an Egyptian God card.” Blossom said in surprise. Marik stared at Kaiba’s dragon with anger. (How could my God card be defeated by that?) Marik thought.
Leona, Katrina, and Blossom walked over to Kaiba. The Blue-Eyes White Dragon bent down to touch Leona’s hand, but Leona moved back. Kaiba took her hand and said, “Don’t be afraid it, it just wants to say hi.” Kaiba held Leona’s hand and started to pet it. The dragon happily smiled at her. Marik watched as Leona, Kaiba, Katrina, and Blossom were so happy. It made him sick. (Look at those fools enjoying my defeat. They’ll pay for that.) Msrik thought.
Marik pulled out a dagger and thought (This dagger has a deadly poison in it. When coming into contact the person will die. If I can’t have Leona no one will. She’s already weak from her millennium item. She will instantly die.) Marik smiled evilly and threw the dagger directly at Leona. Kaiba saw this and yelled, “Leona move!” pushing her out of the way before the dagger hit. But Kaiba wasn’t so lucky. He had enough strength to pull the dagger out of his body even though it was so painful. He threw it to the ground and collapsed to the ground.
Leona rushed over to his side, tears in her eyes. She asked, “Why? Why did you do that?” Leona tried to hold back her tears, but couldn’t. Kaiba looked at her and smiled He said, “Because I love you so much that I’m willing to die for you.” Leona smiled back at him and told him, “Don’t talk like that. You’re not going anywhere. Once we get back home, you’ll be fine.” Kaiba reached his hand out and Leona took it. He slowly whispered, “Take care of Mokuba for me. Tell him I love him with all my heart.” Leona started to cry even more. “Please don’t go.” Leona pleaded. “Thank you for everything Leona. Know that I’ll always love you.” Kaiba whispered to her.
Kaiba let go of Leona’s hand. His cold blue eyes full of pain, despair, and sadness slowly faded as he took his last breath. Leona gasped in shock and sadness. “NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!” Leona screamed out. “Seto! You can’t go. Don’t leave here, please.” Leona cried out as she started to cry hysterically. Leona suddenly felt a comforting hand on her shoulder. “Leona, we can’t do anything its too late now.” Katrina told her. Leona wiped her tears and said, “But I didn’t get a chance to tell him.” “Tell him what?” Blossom asked. Leona looked at Kaiba’s motionless body hoping he would wake up. “To tell him that I. . . I. . . I love him.” Leona answered.
“How tragic.” A voice said. The girls saw Marik walking towards them. He laughed then said, “Too bad. Looks like you should’ve told him earlier.” Leona stared angrily at Marik and yelled, “You did this! How could you!?” Marik approached Leona and answered, “Now no one can prevent me from having you, my dear.” As Marik was about to touch Leona, her millennium bracelet started to glow. “What’s this?” Marik asked. The millennium bracelet created an aura around everyone and engulfed them in a flash of light.
Leona opened her eyes and saw that she was in the virtual pod. The virtual pod opened and Leona got out. She saw Yugi and the others. “About time you got out.” Joey said. (I can’t believe it. We’re back.) Leona thought. Katrina and Blossom also got out of their virtual pods. “Alright we’re back home.” Blossom cheered. “What are you talking about? You guys never left this room.” Mokuba told them. Leona saw Kaiba still in his virtual pod. Tears started to come out of her eyes. “Leona are you alright?” Mokuba asked her concerned.
Leona looked at Mokuba and answered, “What I’m about to tell you isn’t easy for me to say.” Leona took a deep breath and told him, “Mokuba, your brother is….” “Is what?” Asked a voice. Leona turned around and saw Kaiba smiling at her. Leona ran to him and hugged him. “You’re alright. I thought I lost you.” Leona said. “You’ll never lose me. Don’t worry I’ll never leave you.” Kaiba told her. “What were you going to tell me Leona?” Mokuba asked. “Oh your brother told me that you two are going back to Japan early.” Leona quickly answered.
“Hey where’s Marik?” Katrina asked as she saw the empty virtual pod. “Who cares? It doesn’t matter.” Joey said. “I bet you guys must be really hungry.” Tea said. “Let’s go get something to eat.” Yugi suggested. “Yeah, thanks to Joey we didn’t get a bite to eat.” Tristan said. “What!? I gave you some of my food!” Joey yelled. “Yeah the crumbs.” Tristan told him. The two argued as they walked out of the basement. The others soon followed.
As Leona was about to leave, Kaiba pulled Leona in his arms. “So, you do love me.” Kaiba said to her. Leona blushed and asked, “You heard me?” Kaiba nodded and smiled at her. “Now tell me the truth. Were you actually going to kiss Marik?” Kaiba asked. “Why? Were you gonna do something about it?” Leona asked playfully. Kaiba leaned forward and kissed Leona on the lips. The kiss would have lasted longer, but they heard, “Awwwwww….” Coming from behind them. They saw Yugi and the others. “Aren’t you guys coming?” Mokuba asked. Leona and Kaiba followed the gang out of the hotel. Leona suddenly felt her bracelet become loose. She took off her bracelet and held it in her hand. (Looks like this millennium bracelet is more of a gift than a curse. Thank you for giving Seto a second chance.) Leona thought.
