Chapter1:

 

President meetsPresident, Mirrored images

 

 

It was just another busy Friday afternoon in Domino city, the cars were traffic-jammed to a standstill, but one passenger was unphased because he was reading the paper in the comfort of his limo. You might be picturing a balding, 40+ year old widower, but don't. Because this guy is in the prime of life and is fricking HOT!! (Seto: excuse me? Sonja: *cough-cough* sorry…) Anyway, Seto was reading the stocks exchange for the 5th time just to make sure he got all his calculations for the day correctly. Trying not to think of the annoying jam the driver got him into; he then flipped to the Entertainment section to find something to read.

 

He found it. In big bold letters across the paper read: `E.M.E: The Titan of the Music Industry'

 

Anything with the word `Industry' caught his attention. He looked down at the column.

 

>>>>>>>>>

 

The Edachi Music Enterprises or E.M.E. has now been declared the leading music corporation in the world. Maintaining a steady stock gross rate of an astounding 23 million per month, it is officially the 3rd highest grossing business in the world, the second being the Coca-Cola co. in the U.S. with an SGR of 26 million, and…( Seto smirked proudly.) …Kaibacorp. Taking the first place spot with a mind-boggling 35 million SGR.

 

But, we're getting out of the subject. E.M.E. has served some of Japan's and the World's leading names in music, such as Linkin Park, Green Day, Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, Britney Spears, N*sync, A1, Jay-Z, Megumi Hayashibara, BUZZCLIP, WAG, Okui Masami, CooRie, Kishimoto Hayami, Tokuyama Hidenori, Charcoal Filter and much more. With the massive amount of popstar paparazzi, you'd expect a calm, experienced man as the head, right? Well, the head—or should I say heads--of E.M.E. aren't even done with high school yet! Yup, you heard me! The Presidents of E.M.E. are the dynamic duo of the business world, named most successful siblings in history, even more than the Wright bros., Brother and sister team Damien and Sonja Edachi. This reporter was able to get an exclusive interview with the two presidents shown on page 17.

 

>>>>>>>

 

Seto was definitely interested about the two Edachi siblings. He turned to the indicated page and quickly read the interview.

 

 

I was outside the Edachis' office. Tape recorder at the ready, I knocked at the door. Nobody answered. I opened the door slightly and saw the two presidents playing instruments. Sonja was playing a guitar while Damien played the drums. When they saw me, they put their instruments down and escorted me to a seat to begin the interview.

 

```````````````

 

Reporter: Good afternoon, presidents!

 

Sonja Edachi: You don't have to be so formal. Just call me Sonja.

 

Damien Edachi: And I Damien.

 

Reporter: Wow, you two are really friendly!! We were expecting a curt, crisp attitude from you guys.

 

SE: We try not to be like that. You see, we may be successful and take on a job that's for people twice our age, we're still teens. `Live life the way you want to, not by what you do.' that's my motto.

 

DE: Not me. Although I agree, I live by a different motto. `Cram all work now, goof off later.' That's mine.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Hmph, I agree with Mr. Edachi. That is, if I ever get the chance to goof off… Seto thought.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

R: So tell me, what's it like to have a company that's famed on a global scale and yet not have a high school diploma?

 

SE: It's like a big juggling act. You have to remember which one is a work document and which is an essay assignment.

 

DE: I vaguely remember you accidentally gave your history term paper to Will Smith to sign…

 

SE: That was one time only, Damien!!

 

R: Ha-ha, anyway, how does it feel to have a top-grossing record?

 

SE: It feels pretty good. In fact, we weren't paying notice. We were just concentrating on our work, both school and office.

 

DE: Yeah, although I knew Coca-Cola would be in the top 3, I never expected our company to be 3rd.

 

R: So, you're not disappointed that two companies are grossing higher than you?

 

SE: No, if they're higher than us, than that means they deserve their spot.

 

DE: I agree.

 

R: So, what do you think of your competitors??

 

DE: Well, as a representative of E.M.E. I'd like to say congratulations to the two.

 

SE: But as a teen, I'd like to say: `way cool, good job!'

 

R: I've heard that even though that company is your competitor, you both own Duel Disks, Is that right?

 

~~~~~~~~~~~

 

This outta be good… Seto thought, a wide smirk on his face.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~

 

SE: Is that illegal?? If yes then I'm guilty, throw away the key!

 

DE: Give me a double sentence. Mine is even silver.

 

R: Well, no. It's not illegal, but y'know rumors…

 

SE: Oh I see…

 

R: So you two duel?

 

DE: In my spare time yea…

 

SE: A lot. Most of the stars here and abroad are big dueling fans. Sometimes I even enjoy duels with Mike Shinoda.

 

R: You mean Mike Shinoda, the lead vocalist of Linkin Park?!?!

 

SE: Yeah, He's good too! If only he'd stop using Musician King all the time…

 

DE: Yeah, his strategy is getting pretty old…

 

SE: In fact, we redid the video of `Breaking the Habit' to include Duel Monsters.

 

R: And that album, `Duelist Fanatica' is already in stores. Did that come into contract boundaries??

 

DE: Oh no. It took us a while to convince Pegasus to let us use his creation, but he gave in, eventually…

 

SE: He may not look it, but baby bro's very charismatic.

 

DE: How many times have I told you not to call me that!?!?!

 

SE: It's payback for the term paper spill!!!!

 

R: Okay, a few more questions: Knowing that a lot of the stars have taken dueling as their hobby; will we be expecting any duel monsters appearing in the future videos that you'll make??

 

DE: Maybe…

 

SE: Although, we can say that a few famous monsters will be making an appearance…

 

DE: And probably a few famous faces…

 

R: Wow. Okay, last question: Which of you is the better duelist??

 

DE: I am.

 

SE: Umm… Are you crazy?? I'm better!

 

DE: Not in any way are you a better duelist than me!!!

 

SE: Oh yeah, let's go. Right here, right now!!!!!

 

DE: You're on! Loser stays overtime to do filing!!!

 

```````````````

 

While I mentally kicked myself for not bringing a camera, I left the two Edachis alone to let them finish their *cough* business. That was an interview with Sonja and Damien Edachi. And this was Kayako Makurisha interviewing.

 

 

Seto looked up from the paper. They had only traveled a few feet because the traffic was squeezed tighter than a sardine can. Annoyed, Seto said to the driver:

 

“Drive straight to the mansion. I'm going to walk home.”

 

The driver inclined his head, indicating he heard his orders. Seto got out of the car and onto the sidewalk. He looked up the long lane crammed with cars.

 

“Might as well…” Seto said to himself, and started up the long road to Kaiba Mansion.

 

As he passed by a line of music shops, he noticed most had the same poster stuck onto the display window:

 

Now in stores!The newest music video album by E.M.E.: `Duelist Fanatica: an oath to Duel Monsters' featuring J-pop artists Megumi Hayashibara, Okui Masami, WAG and BUZZCLIP. Also included, American hits like Linkin Park's `Hit the Floor', `Breaking the Habit' and `One Step Closer'; Green Day's `Holiday' and `American Idiot' and Linkin Park and Jay-Z's `Numb/Encore'.

 

Hmm…looks like business is booming…Seto thought, seeing a long line leading into a music store. Among them was everybody's friendship girl, (*coughb***hcough*) Tea Gardner.

 

“I'm so excited. `Duelist Fanatica' is the biggest thing since Battle City!!” He heard her say to her friend in front of her, who happened to be Serenity.

 

“I know. Joey said I should see the videos instead of just listening to the music. He told me, and I quote: `what's da use of eye surgery if ya not gonna watch music videos???' He made it sound so cool; I'm going to get one!” She replied. Curiosity getting the better of him, he walked over to them.

 

“What's this, a pack-rat convention??” He asked loudly.

 

“What're you doing here, Kaiba??” Tea asked, ignoring the stares the three of them were gathering.

 

“I was caught in a jam and then got caught in a bigger one. What's the line for?” He leered.

 

“Well, the new music video album, Duelist Fanatica, is selling in all the music stores around. Everybody's itching to get one.” Serenity said in her ever-friendly attitude. (Such an angel…*sniff*)

 

“Well, why not go to the other stores?” He asked, gesturing toward the otherwise empty stores around him.

 

“Well, this particular store…” Tea said gesturing toward the store they were lining up to get into. “…is rumored to have invited Damien Edachi for autographs.”

 

“Edachi is the co-owner of E.M.E., am I right?” Kaiba asked, eyebrow raised.

 

“How did…” Tea started to say.

 

“I read it in the newspaper.” He replied curtly.

 

Just then, a boy came swaggering towards the shop. He was tall, around 5'10 or 6'1, wearing a sky blue jacket over a murky green polo shirt and baggy brown denims. He wore a red baseball cap and sunglasses that shielded his eyes and he had his hands stuffed in his pockets.

 

The boy ignored the line and cut into the front. Some of the visitors were not pleased.

 

“Hey, you creep! I was here first!!!!” A girl cried out.

 

“You made my girl mad! Now you're gonna pay!!” Her boyfriend threatened.

 

Then the music shop door opened and the manager came out. “What's all the commotion here???” He asked.

 

The girl angrily pointed towards the boy and cried out: “It was him! He cut in front of the line!!”

 

The manager walked up to the boy and asked fiercely. “Who do you think you are?!?”

 

The boy said nothing, he just took out his left hand from inside his pocket, which had something that looked like a wallet in it. With a flick of the wrist, he opened it and flashed it in front of the manager while removing his glasses with the right hand for the manager to see his face clearly. What caught Seto's notice was that he did it all in one swift motion, suggesting that he did that a lot.

 

The manager's look changed from rage to embarrassment. “I-I-I'm so sorry!” He stammered. “Come right this way.” He escorted the boy into the shop. The girl whined loudly. “Why does he get to go first?!?!” Her boyfriend hugged her gently. “There there, baby. I'll beat'em up soon.” He cooed.

 

“He's done that before.” Kaiba said to no one in particular. Then, he went inside and went to look for the boy.

 

Inside was a normal, everyday record store. As Seto looked around, he noticed the manager's door immediately. He walked up to the door and found it slightly ajar, so he eavesdropped on the boy and manager's conversation.

 

Manager: I'm so sorry, Mr. Edachi. I didn't know it was you.

 

So he's Damien Edachi…Seto thought. …A strange wardrobe for a record signing…

 

Damien: It's alright. Most people don't know it's me until they see my I.D.

 

Manager: Shall I open the doors?

 

Damien: Sure, but I'm not taking off my glasses.

 

Manager: Agreed.

 

The manager then walked to the door, giving Seto ample time to duck behind a shelf. He then snuck inside the office to find Damien staring right at him.

 

“Knew it.” He said, smirking.

 

“So you knew I was there? Pretty smart, Edachi.” Seto said, also smirking.

 

“I'll take that as a compliment, Kaiba.” Damien said.

 

The two drew closer. (NO YAOI HERE, PEOPLE!!!!) So close that you could see the height difference. Seto was still taller, but Damien was about Seto's mouth level.

 

“If you know me, why don't you show me your face.” Kaiba retorted.

 

“Will you gape like a fish if I do?” Damien asked with a raised eyebrow.

 

“Try me.”

 

Damien slowly removed his cap and his sunglasses. Seto couldn't help but stare. Damien had dark, chestnut brown hair that stood up a lot around the sides and his eyes were as blue as the vast ocean. (Try to imagine Seto with his hair all ruffled and sticking up in a few places and you get my idea of Damien)

 

“You're still gaping like a fish, or should I say sea horse?” Damien said mockingly, eyebrow raised at Kaiba.

 

“Sea horse??” Kaiba asked.

 

“Isn't that what your name means? I did research when people said I looked a lot like you.” Damien explained.

 

“Hmph, pretty smart…”

 

Just then, they heard the door slam open.

 

“There you are! Oni-chan, I've been looking all over for you!!!” A girl said.

 

The girl was standing in the doorway, arms crossed and an annoyed expression on her face. She had long blonde hair tied into a ponytail and almond brown eyes. She was wearing a pink t-shirt with a stud flower design near the shoulder and a blue denim miniskirt with blue rubber shoes; a small, fuzzy, pink sling bag in her left hand.

 

“Shimatta, caught!!!” Damien said.

 

“Where the heck are you doing here?!?!” She said angrily, glaring at Damien.

 

“Just doing some requests that some people sent in. Why are you so upset about me doing that, Nee-san?”

 

“Because, baby bro. You had me worried sick!!”

 

“Stop calling me baby bro!!! We're both the same age, Sonja!!”

 

“Even though, I am the first born, and I will call you as I please!!!

 

“Why you little—”

 

Just then, a cell phone rang.

 

Both Damien and Sonja whipped out their cell phones and checked. Neither of the two rang.

 

Seto, who had blended in with the background when to two Edachis started fighting, calmly reached into his pocket and took out his cell phone.

 

“What?” He said into the phone.

 

“Big brother, where are you?” The person on the other line (a.k.a. Mokuba, duh!) said.

 

“The traffic was horrible, so I walked.” Seto answered.

 

“Where are you now??”

 

“On my way home, but I stopped by a music store to look at something interesting.”

 

“Oh, really? Well, now that you're there, can you pick up a C.D. of Duelist Fanatica for me?”

 

“You actually want to see that?”

 

“Yeah, I heard about it from my classmates at school. One of them saw a preview of it on the internet and said it was spectacular!!”

 

“Oh really? Well, the funny thing is, I'm here with the creators of that video album…”

 

“You mean you're with the Edachis?!?!”

 

“Yea, I am.”

 

“Can you ask them to come over to our house, please?”

 

“No.”

 

“Pppppllleeeaaassseee????”

 

“No.”

 

“Please, I'll promise not to eat sugar for a week!!”

 

“Done.”

 

Seto clicked off his cell. He looked up and saw Sonja looking at him funny.

 

“What?” He asked sharply.

 

“Now I know why they mix you two up. You two really do look alike.” Sonja said matter-of-factly.

 

“Except I'm slightly shorter…” Damien pointed out.

 

Seto scoffed. “Hmph, so what?” he asked impatiently.

 

“You were talking about us. Who was that?” Sonja inquired.

 

“My little brother, Mokuba. He wanted me to invite you two to our house.”

 

“We'd be delighted!!” Sonja replied happily.

 

“But…” Damien started.

 

“Because of you I did all the appointments double time so we're clear for the afternoon.” Sonja snapped at her brother.

 

“Sigh…” Damien replied, apparently defeated.

 

“But before that, we'll have to finish this appointment first.” Sonja said, walking out the office door.

 

Both brunettes followed.

 

 

 

After the tiring 3 hours of signing, Sonja, Damien and Seto were in front of the Kaiba Mansion.

 

Damien: *Holding hand* my aching hand…

 

Sonja: So THIS is how the other businessmen live… Swanky.

 

Seto: Shall we go in?

 

Damien and Sonja: *nod*

 

Seto inserted a keycard into a slot by the door and the door automatically opened.

 

And so, all three teens entered the Kaiba Mansion.

 

IIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVEEEEEEETTTTHHHHAAAATTTTTTNNNNUU UMMMBBBEEERRR

 

Sonja: Chapter 1 first up!! How was it?!?!

 

Seto: Not that bad, not that good, either…

 

Damien: Needs some more plot descriptions…

 

Sonja: Hypocrites.

 

Jake: You know Sonja's rule: If you like, review and she'll update. If not, don't review and she'll delete. If flamer, she'll repel it back to you.

 

Sonja: Knowing that, Read this fic and judge it!!!
