Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Seto Remembers ❯ Seto Remembers ( Chapter 1 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
This is a songfic... To Evanescence's *My Immortal* please, all flames will be used to roast my enemies over an open fire, although I don't think anybody will be flaming, I think it's a rather good songfic, and it suits the persona of the main character, who loved his brother very much.

Seto sat in the park, crying. He couldn't cry at his own house, for all the memories came flooding back to him. However, the park may be private, but the memories seemed to follow him, although there were very little there, either...

*I'm so tired of being here/ Suppressed by all of my childish fears/ And if you have to leave/ I wish that you would just leave/ Because your presence still lingers here/ And it won't leave me alone...*

~flashback~

Seto and Mokuba were in the limo, and Mokuba had a pained look on his face. He knew something. "Big brother, can we please switch seats? I don't feel comfortable in this one..." he said, and Seto frowned. "Alright, Mokuba, we can switch seats, but you know I always sit here...." he said. Then, both boys heard the limo beep its horn, before a car smashed head long into the seat where the CEO had formerly been sitting, and where Mokuba was currently sitting. Crunching him between the door handle and the seat, his heart was impaled upon the door's handle. Seto's eyes widened, and he called 9-1-1, hoping he wasn't too late. "I'm sorry big brother, but I couldn't let you die, and those creeps, I heard them planning... I-I-I...." Mokuba cut off, and then said, "I love you big brother." Seto cried out, in pain, and said, "We could've avoided this by having the copter pick us up, and switching our limo's plates, or something.... Please, Mokuba, live, FOR MY SAKE!!!!" Seto said, for once, showing his emotions, and crying.

* ... These wounds won't seem to heal/ This pain is just too real/ There's just too much that time cannot erase...*

~flashback~

"I'm sorry Mr. Kaiba, but there's nothing we can do.... Your brother is... gone." the doctor said. "NNNNOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!" Seto Kaiba cried out, everyone turned, and flooded to him for autographs, but he pushed through them all again to return to his brother's side. The doctor dismissed them all, and left Seto to be alone with his brother.

~end flashback~

* ... When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears/ When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears/ And I've held your hand through all of these years/ But you still have all of me....*

Seto just kept crying, and crying, but he couldn't seem to cease the flow of his tears even slightly.... He heard somebody approaching, but he didn't care. Everybody now knew of Mokuba's death, but he could care less... He just wanted his little brother- no, his world- back with him.

* ... You used to captivate me/ By your resonating light/ But now I'm bound by the life you left behind/ Your face haunts my once pleasant dreams/ Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me...*

The footsteps approaching got closer, but Seto still did not try to hide. The press had caught those responsible for plotting his demise, and those that weren't dead from impact, who killed his brother, but Seto didn't care. All he could feel was that he wanted to die.

* ... These wounds won't seem to heal/ This pain is just too real/ There's just too much that time cannot erase/ When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears/ When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears/ And I've held your hand through all of these years/ But you still have all of me...*

Seto sat up, and the footsteps were even louder, but he still ignored them. "I JUST WANT MY BROTHER BACK, GODDAMNIT! THAT'S ALL THAT I HAD TO LIVE FOR, AND YOU'VE TAKEN IT AWAY! I KNOW I SHOULD BE GRATEFUL THAT HE SAVED ME, BUT WHY DID HE HAVE TO DIE?!?!?!?!"

* ... I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone/ But though you're still with me/ I've been alone all along...*

The person whom the footsteps sat down next to him, it was a young girl. "Hi, I'm Ryoko. Why are you all alone? Shouldn't you be with somebody? Grieving is something that everyone needs help with..." Seto scowled at her, before realizing that she may be able to help. He'd been pushing away everyone's help, especially the Mutt's.... but now-- now he had somebody who sounded like they understood....

* ... When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears/ When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears/ And I've held your hand through all of these years/ But you still have..... all of me... *

Seto leaned on the strange girl's shoulder, and she stroked his hair gently.

Mokuba watched silently. He was glad that his brother was at least uninjured. He was very disappointed to have left him, though. And the girl.... The girl will surely help him to get over my death... I had to do it, he couldn't die, not in the prime of his life, I hadn't had the chance.... Mokuba stopped thinking. He shouldn't be pitying himself, it was his decision to save his brother, now he'd pay the price. Seto shouldn't be pushing Jounouchi away, though. Maybe I could appear to him in a dream, or the girl... It would be to painful for my brother.... Mokuba just couldn't help it....
"I love you always big brother!" Mokuba said, but he didn't think his brother would be able to hear him. Although the angel next to him made sure he did.

Ryoko and Seto got up, and started to walk away. As they got to the tree, Seto stopped. Ryoko looked at him, then back ahead. Seto looked up right at where Mokuba was watching, although he couldn't see him. I could have sworn I just heard Mokuba... No, it was definitely my imagination.... Seto resumed walking, and he and the girl walked out of the park together.
