Chapter 3

~~~~~~~~~~

"Damn, forgot how long this walk actually was," Kaiba was muttering
to himself again. It had been a long time since he had had to do any
real physical activity like this. The streets were mostly empty
except for a passing car every now and then. `Should have called a
taxi…' `Yea, yea, shoulda, coulda, woulda…' He still had a long
ways to go on his little walkabout and Seto had to admit to himself
he was getting tired. `At least I left everything at work so I
don't have to carry anything.' Then he realized that also meant his
cell phone, "Shit, can't even call for a cab now." On he walked,
passing the now closed shops that he never would have stopped in
anyways as they were not his style. A little further down the
street Seto realized he actually knew where he was, not that he was
lost, just that he had never realized exactly what was on this
particular street.
His mind drifted back to that first day he had been here…

*****

Looking at the two boys in the back of the car you would have thought
they were off to jail or something, of course no one sends little
kids off to prison just because they're orphans. The younger
brother wasn't even aware of anything going on as he had fallen
asleep an hour before, resting his head on his brother's lap. As
the driver looked back in the mirror at the boys, his heart was at
the breaking point. It wasn't their fault this all had to happen,
but it wasn't his job to change it either. The older boy sat just
staring out the window, his sad blue eyes trying to take in
everything on the roadsides. It was night but there was a full moon
that night and everything was as clear as day. "There's a park up
ahead I hear they take the kids to some days," the driver told him
trying to get the boy to talk, breaking the silence that had filled
the car. A dark stare answered him but the child was thinking how
his little brother might like that a lot.

Turned out the man was right, the nuns at the orphanage did take the
kids to the park at least once a week, if they had been good. It was
a nice change and it let the boys run around, enjoying a little taste
of freedom. Mokuba loved the visits and Seto enjoyed the time with
his brother outside. They would spend the whole time on the merry go
round, with Seto getting it to spin so fast sometimes the both fell
off laughing in near hysterics.

*****
Seto laughed at himself for enjoying the memory so, `Wonder if Mokuba
remembers that place?' The dark haired boy actually picked up his
pace at the thought that no one would be around this time of night.
No one would be able to see him letting his guard down for a few
minutes of childish fun. "And why the hell not," he said aloud.


There it was, the park still looked exactly like he remembered it.
Okay so maybe a little smaller than he remembered but still looked
more or less the same. The merry go round was just up ahead and it
only took a few moments for Seto to get to it. He was defiantly
going to have to bring Mokuba back here one night, just the two of
them, but for now it was all his. The metal of the wheel was cool
to his touch and it had been well kept up, as it wasn't squeaking as
he spun it around getting the speed going faster and faster. Taking
off his coat and laying it on a nearby table, Seto jumped on the
spinning wheel. As the wheel spun around, he lay back he could feel
his body cool from the metal. He just laid there, looking up at the
sky, getting slightly dizzy but in a nice way. It had been too long
since he had done anything like this, and he was enjoying himself
completely.

The moon, overhead, spun round with ease. Life was extremely
good.
