Mr Motou,
It was brought to my attention on 3rd July that you had put your name down on the Domino City job application list. I would like to offer you a job with us.
Your CV gave an impressive list of different management jobs you have had. We also checked with the businesses you worked for and all said that you kept the company well in profit and way above the health and safety standards needed. It is on this basis that we are offering you the job of Chief Executive Officer at Kaiba Corporation.
Our previous CEO was lax in safety standards and so therefore we had to remove him from his position of power. We would like you to come in and raise the standards of Kaiba Corporation to the standard you have maintained at your previous workplaces.
We look forward to meeting you. If you are interested in this job, please be present at Kaiba Corporation headquarters no later than 10am on 9th July.
Yours sincerely
Mr. Edward Stoutwealth

Chapter two here, enjoy!
/Yami, 9th July/
Yami Motou was having an early breakfast. His younger brother was starting college today in Domino City, and they were moving out there together, although Yami would have a flat to himself. His brother Yugi was staying on campus.
"Yami!! The mail's here!" Yugi called. Yami got up and picked up a few letters. Most were from his previous three jobs, wishing him well when he moved. They weren't the richest people in New York; in fact they were two of the poorest. Yami had had to save 3/4 of his salary from three different jobs at the same time, just to get Yugi into college. There was another letter from a Mr. E. Stoutwealth. He decided to read that later.
He drove Yugi to Domino City in his Ford Ka. They arrived at Yami's new flat at 6am. Yugi grabbed his case out of the boot and made his way inside. Yami did the same, and as he sat down on the sofa he opened Mr. E. Stoutwealth's letter. His eyes lit up.
"Yugi! Look at this letter!" He called. Yugi came running into the room and read the letter.

"Yami! The 9th is today!"
"I better get prepared then, but what will they think of me, I mean, they fired THE Seto Kaiba."
"They'll like you, I promise. I got to go now, phone me and let me know bro."
"Will do Yugi, have fun."
Yugi ran out of the door and onto his new college, while Yami tried to pick an outfit that would look respectable. He finally decided he needed to go shopping.
/Seto, 9th July/
Seto soon realized that he did not own any "personal items." Evidently, everything he bought with KC funds was property of KC. This included all of his large trailing jackets, his duel deck, laptop, palm pilot, cell phone, and pretty much everything else. All he did own were his card locket Mokuba had given him for Christmas, a few simple black business suits, and a
suitcase that he had been allowed to keep. Mokuba however was luckier, he had a cell phone and most of his clothing he had bought with money from jobs he had taken, but not really needed.
The former CEO of Kaiba Corp found himself on the TARTA bus, going to the outskirts of New York City. His secretary had given him her summer cottage by a small lake. "I don't even visit there anyway, and I think you should have It." she had said timidly after Mr. Kaiba had gotten over the shock of his removal. She had always had an un-professional liking to Seto Kaiba. He had refused at first, until she reminded him that if he didn't take it Mokuba would be living off the streets of New York City.
They arrived at the cottage, both brothers suitcases in hand. Seto was reminded of when they had first arrived at the orphanage so long ago. The cottage was small and simple, two stories by the look of it, wood walls and dirty screened windows. No one had lived there for a very long time.

Seto grimaced, Mokuba noticed and said optimistically, "Look, Miss. Fauxe planted
flowers." Indeed she had, 5 years ago. They were wild and thorny now, bordering the path up to the door. Both brothers had thorns and thistles in their pant legs by the time they reached it.
flowers." Indeed she had, 5 years ago. They were wild and thorny now, bordering the path up to the door. Both brothers had thorns and thistles in their pant legs by the time they reached it.
"Can't be worse." Mokuba said, opening the door. They both coughed as the dust swirled around them. A small living room greeted them; it had two old couches and a filthy rug. A small door in the back led to a stair way to the attic, which was home to a small colony of bats and Mokuba swore he saw a raccoon. The other doors in the living room led to small bedrooms which Miss. Fauxe obviously tried to make themes for. A dusty drawer set and mirror and bed were all that could be contained in the small room, a picture of Abraham Lincoln hung crooked at the foot of the bed.
"The Lincoln Room" Mokuba said, trying to get his brother to say something. "Heh."
The room next to the Lincoln room was the `Rose Room.' Faded red wall paper hung on the walls, the colour of dried blood. A bed and drawer set was in this one too, but no mirror. A dead rose sat in a brown vase.

"Lovely, this one will be mine." Mokuba said, knowing Seto would appreciate a mirror. Seto left and went to explore the last room, the kitchen. Both choked when they entered. After investigation they realized that Miss. Fauxe had not cleaned out the refrigerator for at least 10 years. Besides that the kitchen contained a small round table with four chairs, lots of empty cabinets, and a stove. The bathroom was connected, and surprisingly clean, with one
shower, sink, bath, and toilet. However, there were no linen's or toilet paper, so they'd have to go shopping. Seto went back to the kitchen to find Mokuba cleaning the refrigerator, smiling up at him.
"I'm so sorry." Seto said bluntly.

"I'm so sorry." Seto said bluntly.
"Don't be, I'm almost done." Mokuba sat up on his knees; he had found an ancient dish towel and was scrubbing away at the moss inside.
"No, Mokuba, this is all my fault." Seto growled, angry Mokuba wasn't angry at him. But what could he do? Seto watched his little brother, never complaining, scrubbing away, forced to live in this... dump because his only family member was a failure. He made up his mind.
"Tomorrow I'm going to apply for another job at Kaiba Corp, I'll work my way up the ladder and get my position back." he said.
"And I can get a job too. Maybe at a fast-food place." Mokuba said; glad to see the fighting spirit return to his brother. "We can get past this; we always have in the past!" Mokuba added. Seto nodded, and took the dish towel from Mokuba.
"I'll finish this, you get to bed, and tomorrow we go job hunting."
/Yami, 10th July/
Yami took a seat in his new office. He looked around the room and at the electronic items on the desk, most of which wielded a tag reading: property of Seto Kaiba.
"Jesus, they really wiped this guy out! He didn't even get to keep his laptop." He clicked the intercom button, "Ms. Fauxe? Anyone applying for the position of 'gaming designer' should be reported to me immediately, by the looks of these files, the designing was done either very poorly or very quickly, and neither is appreciated. Oh and make sure that someone, anyone, cleans the lifts, no wonder there were so many accidents on the stairs, the lifts smell terrible. Thank you."
Yami opened the file labelled 'duel disk design' on the laptop. He ran through the itemised check of materials used for them and found the problem immediately. He picked up the phone and connected himself to the manufacture department.
"Hello?...... This is Mr. Motou......... Yes, well I was just letting you know, I have found the fault with the duel disk manufacture........................ Someone ordered than copper should be used because it is cheap when it should be aluminium..............You have my permission to order as much aluminium as needed to correct the fault. I would like it to be corrected by the end of today, but you must not rush, take tomorrow as well if need be.......I do understand that the previous CEO wanted quick production, but I prefer safe production. It is a plus if it is quick, but if it is safe, people don't die................right.................Thank you." And he rang off. He got up to go down to the foyer to get some coffee and to see if any job applicants were in yet. He was told by the secretary that there was one and only one applicant for 'gaming designer'.
