Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Wolf Down ❯ The Missing ( Chapter 5 )

`I don't know why I got so worked up but it is none of the mutt's business,' Seto stressed as he rapidly typed on his computer. `Why am I getting so worked up over that mutt?' Seto growled out loud. He was trying to get a background on the teen who says his name is Jonouchi Katsuya.

Beep. "Sorry, Master Kaiba no results were found," answered a voice from the computer.

"So according to the world he doesn't exist at all."

"Yes, no records even stated that name. The name was not on any death list either."

Seto put his head in his hand in frustration grabbing some of his hair.

"How can this be?"

"Don't worry about his background, Master Kaiba, you shall find out eventually. He will not harm you or Moku. His personality is too off to do that."

"Hn," Seto grunted. He sat up from his black leather chair. `This doesn't make sense. Where did he come from?'

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------

"Moku! Moku?" Seto yelled he was tired of thinking of the stranger. Moku always wanted attention so the cub wouldn't mind getting some. He had a strange connection from the moment he had found him on the porch of this very cabin.

~~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~~~~

It was a tiresome day; he had to have a meeting with the mayor and his councilors who did not know anything. `Idiotic Morons,' he sneered in his mind as he stepped onto his cabin's steps that lead up to the porch.

A whimper was softly heard on the porch. Thinking it was only the creaks of the boards in the cabin, he kept on walking towards the front door. The whimper was called out again daring to be ignored but desperate for immediate attention. He stopped to listen again; the small noise was hardly loud now. The whimper came from his right, left to his front door.

He walked to the open portion of the porch. Seeing one of his coats on the wooden floor along side his rifle, he kneeled down by the cloth as it rustled he stopped his hand. Once the movement stopped he slowly brought his pale hand to lift the top of the cloth from its place. The cloth revealed a black fur ball shaking and shivering with a bloodied back leg. Putting my hand at a safe distance, I stayed still to wait for a response calm or violent but there was none. The black pup nudged the hand gently but somewhat blindly. He gently brushed his hands over the soft fur checking for any other injuries besides the leg. Not receiving a yelp or whimper, he slowly picked up the bundle in the coat and went inside the cabin.

After cleaning the black furred pup up that day, there felt to be a strong connection growing between them.

Later that year, Seto started understanding the young pup easier and knew his needs. There was no talking; the communication between him and the pup came naturally like there was something there inside your mind guiding you.

The pup followed him practically everywhere, but he didn't mind. Though the pup just became a part of him, he still was missing something.

~~~~~~End Flashback~~~~~~

Laughter filled the room from the opened window. Hearing this, he walked to the opened window to see to a laughing Jou with a waging-tail Moku on his chest barking at him playfully. Seto stared at the laughing Jou who was lying in the snow with his blonde hair scattered everywhere in the snow. `Moku always had a way with people,' he thought to himself.

--------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------

Stopping his cheerful barking, Moku looked at the door and bolted to it opening it with his nose. Seeing Seto looking down at him, he jump to the taller boy and licked his face.

Seto smiled.

Jou walked in through the opened door and placed himself on the couch. "Ya know; you look better when you smile. I thought you always had a permeate scowl," Jou said the end sarcastically. "Say how long have you had Moku?"

"Why?"

"Because I'm curious and I want to know."

"Curiosity killed the cat in this case puppy."

"I am going to ignore that. Would you just answer my question?"

"A year in a half."

"Well he is more attached to you than I'd expect. You have a close connection to him."

Moku looked at Jou then back at Seto. Jumping from the taller boy's arms, Moku went to Jou and looked up at him curiously. He barked at Jou then dashed over to Seto and pushed his head on the back of Seto's leg.

"You do know that he wants you to move?" said Jou teasingly.

Seto glared at the blonde haired boy.

"Didn't mean to offend you. Don't get so worked up over simple things," Jou stated raising his hands in defense.

"Hn," Seto grunted and sat on the opposite side of the couch with Moku in the middle. "How is your arm?"

"Better, but it still hurts like hell," Jou stated while holding his hurt arm. Hearing a withheld chuckle, Jou looked over to Seto with a wide grin.

Ignoring what was happening around him, Moku lay on the couch contemplating the happenings of the past few days.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO# Moku's POV#OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Jou has now stayed with us for over a week now. Ever since Jou came, Seto seems more emotional. I think they are still warming up to each other though, with their fights every single day I am getting very suspicious of it. I have a feeling that they do it to get close to each other even if it's unconsciously.

~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~~

I slept in Jou's room that day. Seto was up already doing things, I'm too sleepy to know. I'm snuggling up more to the comforters at the end of the bed when Seto walks in not even noticing me at all. He walks to the side of the bed.

"Jou, get up," he stated flatly. I yawn. There was no way he was going to get Jou out of bed like that, he sleeps like a rock. He usually let's Jou sleep in and doesn't bother him.

Seto huffed. `Cute, someone's showing emotion' I thought and snickered. Finally noticing me, Seto turns to me and glares.

"Shut it, Moku," he playfully whispered under his breath at me.

He turned back to Jou.

"Jou get up now."

`He's not in a very good mood. I think I'll watch from the sidelines before I get squashed,' I thought as I jumped of the bed to get a good view of what was going to happen without any danger to me.

"Mutt, if you don't get up this instant, I'll go to extreme measures to getting you up," he stated more fierce and louder.

`Short tempered this morning, aren't we?'

"Give me five more min, Baku," Jou muttered cutely.

Seto growled. He was tired of this, verbally waking Jou up was not working. Spotting a free pillow on the other side of Jou, Seto reached over Jou's sleeping body and grabbed it. `He wouldn't…, I feel sorry for Jou,' I thought seeing that gleaming look in Seto's eyes.

"Fine then."

Holding the pillow in both hands, Seto roughly brought it down on Jou's face and kept it there until he heard rustling. Moving the pillow away he looked at Jou, Jou's hair was now a disaster.

"What did you do that for, you jerk?!" Jou screech as he grabbed his head pillow and threw it at Seto.

"You wouldn't wake up, puppy," he replied with a smirk dodging the pillow to the right. "It's not my fault that you are a heavy sleeper," he said innocently. (Vyzre: Innocent? He wishes.)

"Well, next time don't wake me up. And I am not a puppy," Jou growled. I am guessing he isn't a morning person.

-Oh, this is hilarious!- I barked quietly.

"Yes, you are," Seto argued back putting his hands on the bed and leaning. Jou is blushing and looks slightly uncomfortable in this situation.

-Jou is blushing-I cried as I laughed at the situation Jou was in.

Hearing me, the two on the bed looked at me.

"Moku, I am going to get you and this time Seto is not going to save you," Jou threaten.

-Yip, I'm in trouble!-I barked loudly as Jou dashed out of the bed and chased me down the hall.

Jou chased me to the living room. I jumped over the couch under the table trying to loose him, but he saw me and dived under the table. I dashed out from there to be caught in the arms of my predator. Jou just grinned and started to tickle me.

-No…stop… I…Seto…- I yipped in between laughter.

"I am not stopping no matter what Seto does so he will not help you," Jou said as tears started to come from my eyes from laughing so much.

"Are you sure about that, puppy?"

Change of POV

Suddenly, I found myself pinned on the floor with my hand s above my head and pressure on my legs. I looked up and found myself lost in crystal sapphire depths. Seto had pinned me down to where I couldn't move my limbs all that well. He leaned down and whispered to my ear, " You're too sure of yourself, pup," and for some reason beyond me that sounded seductive. He nipped my ear before I registered what happened next. I was laughing from the hand tickling my sides while the other kept a hold of my wrists.

"No fair…you…caught m-me…off …guard…" I burst into laughter trying to catch my breath. I struggled against his grip on my wrists. Getting my hands free, I pushed on Seto's chest and rolled him over so I had him pinned. I was panting and my face was flushed.

"Puppy having a hard time breathing?" Seto teased.

"It's your fault," I said hitting him lightly on the arm which was a bad thing since he rolled us back over. Not wanting to be attacked again, I did the same and this continued until we were near the fair wall of the living room.

We separated from each other and lay on our sides on the floor. I was still panting from our little game, and I could feel his powerful gaze on me.

"Mean," I said pouting. Seeing Seto smile in the corner of my eyes, I sighed happily before closing my eyes.

Change of POV

I ran from the room when Seto had pinned Jou. I stayed in the entry way to the living room. They are still somewhat fighting though. Knowing them, they will continue too until they're tired of it. Shaking my head, I walked off when they were down playing their game. -Those two are a handful-

~~~~~~End Flashback~~~~~~

That day was fun and Seto seemed really happy that day as well, but Jou has been more silent then he usually is the past few days.

Though, Jou has been acting strangely lately hopefully nothing will happen to him. I don't imagine him leaving anytime soon; he has no where else to go to that I know of.

O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O

Next day…..

"He's gone…"

TBC……?
