Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Promises Are Forever ❯ Memories ( Chapter 1 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]
**IMPORTANT INFO ON STORY, READ BEFORE CONTINUING**

Okay, here's a few important things for understanding my story. This is sort of a mix between the anime and the manga. It follows the end of the death-t. However, Yami never saves Mokuba from the death experience after he loses to Yami at monster capsule chess (and were all just going to forget the fact that Mokuba saved Honda/Tristan ^.~). Mokuba stays in the chamber while Kaiba duels Yami. After Yami beats Kaiba, he banishes Kaiba's dark half instead of destroying his soul and putting him in a coma. This story starts after Yami banishes Kaiba's dark half. Lots of brother sap:) Man, I love writing these types of stories. Enjoy minna-san!

MF: Well, here's the first chapter of my new story. I feel funny today…
Seto: Maybe it's because you're crazy!
Mokuba: No! You said the word!
Seto: What word.
Mokuba: Crazy!
MF: Moon unit mode enabled! My friends call me moon unit!
Seto: -_- That's just sad…
MF: Seto, I like your ears. Can I have them?
Seto: o.o No…
MF: Your brother looks tasty, can I eat him?
Mokuba: O.O
Seto: God no!
Yami MF: Enjoy the story, we have to return MF to normal. Please review, and remember, the only flames we like are the ones that we use for flame-throwers.

~ Promises are forever ~ Chapter 1: Memories ~

"As long as you believe in the heart of the cards, you can do anything Kaiba!"

Kaiba sat there stunned. He was vaguely aware that people were screaming.

"Yugi won! He beat Kaiba!"

Yami looked at Kaiba.

"I have removed the dark portion of you that clouded your actions. Now you will realize the paint you've caused others. But, you will also find what you can do to save yourself. Good luck Kaiba, I'll be here when you return."

Kaiba could feel darkness edging at his mind. He tried to fight it, but he was unable to hold it off. He finally gave up and was engulfed in memories.

**(Memories)**

"Big brother…"

"Yes Mokuba?"

"What's going to happen to us now?"

The ten year old boy with chocolate brown hair and sea blue eyes turned to face his younger brother sitting beside him in the car. They were riding to the orphanage, both of their parents were dead.

"I don't know"

Tears formed in the younger boy's eyes and began to roll down his cheeks. Seto looked at the small boy sadly, and pulled him into a tight embrace.

"It's going to be okay little brother," Seto whispered as he ran his fingers through Mokuba's long raven hair.

"But…" Mokuba sniffled.

"Don't worry kiddo," Seto smiled, "I'll always be there for you."

"Thanks Seto."

Mokuba smiled and drowsed off in his brother's comforting arms.

**

"I won, now you have to adopt us!"

An twelve-year old Seto stared up triumphantly at Gozaburo Kaiba.

"How could I lose…" Gozaburo muttered.

A small raven haired boy, no older than seven, leapt from the crowd of kids and hugged Seto.

"You did it big brother!" he cried, "You beat him!"

"Only because you were here supporting me Mokuba," Seto kissed the top of Mokuba's raven hair. He turned back to Gozaburo. The man looked defeated.

"I will honor my promise and adopt you, but I'm warning you, my training is rough."

Seto smiled. It didn't matter, as long as Mokuba was safe.

**
"Get up stupid boy!"

A fourteen year old Seto began to stand, only to be greeted by a swift kick in the ribs. He fell back down.

"Why are you doing this to me! I've learned to stop showing my emotions" he cried.

"Because you must learn not to show your emotions to your brother! You still hug him, comfort him, and tell him that you love him. It's sickening! Stop and I'll stop hurting you." replied Gozaburo quietly.

Kaiba grimaced.

(Maybe he's right, life would be easier if I just hid my emotions for Mokuba, then I wouldn't be hurt.)

**

After his "lesson", Kaiba was greeted by Mokuba in the hall.

"Are you all right big brother, you look hurt?" the nine year old inquired.

Seto pushed right passed him.

"Seto…" Mokuba began.

"Just shut up and leave me alone! I don't want to talk to you!" Seto spat.

Seto stormed away. Tears welled up in Mokuba's eyes, and he ran into his room.

**

"W. why are you doing this Seto!?" Gozaburo stammered.

A sixteen year old Seto stood in front of him, poised to push him out the window.

"Because you ruined my life," he smirked, "starting today, the Kaiba corporation is mine."

He stepped forward.

"Wait Seto! What will happen to your loved ones if you are sentenced to death for killing me!"

Seto's eyes narrowed.

"I love no one and no one loves me," he replied swiftly, and pushed his adoptive father out of the window.

**

"Mokuba!" Seto called, "come here, NOW!"

Mokuba appeared swiftly at the door. His face met with Seto's fist. Mokuba fell to the ground, the taste of blood overpowering his mouth.

"Did you touch my computer." Seto sneered.

"No, of course n…"

Mokuba was cut short by a savage kick in the ribs. He cried out in pain and curled up into a ball, sobbing. Seto glared down at his weak brother, crying on the floor. He kicked him again, and again. Seto kicked him so many times that he lost count. He stopped when Mokuba began to cough up blood.

"Don't lie bastard, I know you touched it." Seto said coldly.

Seto picked up the frail boy by his hair, and tossed him in his room. Seto locked the door.

"I'll let you come out when you're ready to admit the truth," Seto left.

Mokuba painfully crawled across the room and lay himself in his bed. He cried himself to sleep, the same thought running through his head.

(Is this really my brother, the one who promised that he would always be there for me?)

**(end of memories)**

Kaiba opened his eyes.

"Are you done now?" Yami inquired.

Kaiba nodded, and the two duelists left the duel box. Kaiba was intent on finding Mokuba. He had to say that he was sorry for all the pain he had caused him. He had to tell Mokuba how much he loved him. Kaiba noticed that not many of the spectators had left. However, there attentions had been turned to where a group of paramedics were lifting the small limp body of a boy onto a stretcher, Kaiba recognized the boy right away.

"MOKUBA!"
