Chapter Six: Quick To Act

Serenity grabbed Kaiba by the arm and pushed him into the dark closet. " What are you doing?" he yelled at her harshly before she closed the door. " It's dark in here, no sun at all, it's either that or die, so I suggest you go to sleep" she said closing the door just in time.

Serenity walked to the open window, and for the first time in a while a real smile of joy appeared on her face. The sun had just started rising, shinning its colors of light on the city. It was beautiful she thought. How could something so beautiful be taken away from the man and others, she felt sorry for them.

Serenity yawned loudly, as she walked towards her brothers bed, and falling down on it, closing her eyes. She was used to sleeping these hours away. " Serenity, why did ya do that?" Joey asked turning her over so she faced him. " Joey, he didn't deserve to die," she said, trying to go back to sleep.

" Serenity, we have to get away from here! What happens when night comes? He'll try to take you away from me. . .again" Joey said. " Joey even if I do run. . .he'll just find me" she said sadly. " We can still try," he said shaking her a bit so she wouldn't fall asleep.

" Joey stop" she wined turning around. " Well if what you say is true, then this is our last day together! So why sleep it through?" he asked. Serenity sighed. He did have a point, and if she did nothing, she knew she would regret it for the rest of her life.

" Fine" she mumbled sitting up. " That's my sister, I'll make some breakfast while you dress into something. . .more appropriate," he said turning away. Serenity looked down and immediately blushed. She was still in the long t-shirt Kaiba had given her. She got off the bed saying she'd be ready soon and ran to her room.



She looked trough her clothes and decided on dark blue jeans and a tight light blue sweater. She then put her hair in a ponytail, leaving a few strands in the front. She looked herself over before leaving her room and walking to the kitchen.

" Pancakes" Joey said putting a plate in front of her. " You couldn't have made them that fast" she said nervously, poking them with the fork he had given her. Joey rolled his eyes putting the syrup on the table. " I made them through the toaster, come on you know I can't cook" he said grinning at her.

She smiled and began to eat her food; it had been a while since she last ate something that wasn't taken out. Her mind slowly wondered to the sleeping vampire in her closet. She had saved his life, despite everything he had done to her, she had spared his life. She smiled again, maybe he would let her live on her own because of that.

" So what do you want to do today? We got the whole day and stuff" he said. " Well you changed your mind quick," she said taking a small bite from her pancake. " Well why waste time fighting?" he said taking the new pancakes from the toaster and putting them on a plate for himself.

" Yeah, so what did you do when you noticed I was missing?" she asked. " I went looking for you, called the police, but no one could find you, they thought you died like the others," he said, taking his first bite of his pancake, dripping with syrup. " Joey that's gross" she said, pushing her plate away.

Joey laughed and continued to eat. So this is what I'll miss for the rest of my life she thought. Why had she saved his life? Its not like he deserved it, but she had, and there was nothing she could do about it. She wondered though if she would regret it till she died. I'm sure there's some good to him though she thought.

But what's so great about Master? She thought. He brings me food she thought happily. That was a good thing, he could of let her starve. He also protected her from Bakura that was good too, but what else? She could think of nothing more. Surely he wasn't like this forever, there must have been some kind of happiness in his life, and maybe before he was a vampire she thought.

" Serenity? You there?" Joey said waving a hand in front of her face. " Huh? Yeah I'm here. . .just thinking" she sighed. " Well you can think later, let's go out," Joey said grabbing her arm and pulling her outside.

Kaiba watched as the door slammed in his face, and there he was, in the darkness. He stood there, a little shocked. What had she just done? That wasn't the same Serenity he had captured and hit and made cry he thought. He sat down on a box and began to think.

He had made a fool of himself before, asking her to stay with him, and she had shot him down, telling him she hated him. But he didn't believe it, someone sweet and gentle like her could never hate he thought. But could he take her away from the light for his happiness? From her brother? Should he force her into something she didn't want to be?

What! Why should I care! I get what I want, and she'll have to deal with it he thought, his eyes darkening slightly. This was too confusing for him, he hated what he started to feel for the young girl, it made him angry that someone like him, as powerful and cruel as him could feel and care for her.

But there was no denying it. She was his angel, the light that shown into his darkness. But he could never be a man she wanted, a man that was sensitive and caring. He was the complete opposite! But he would love her and protect her till the end of time, and wasn't that good enough for any woman?

Yes he was, and she would have to accept her fate, just like he had once had too. . .
