A Snippet
Yugioh piece of "ICOE" chp. 22 scene 1
Kaiba Mokuba
Mokuba woke up the next morning, his head pounding.
"Wonderful," he murmured to himself, pulling a pillow over his head. Why was he awake? It had to be close to noon, and it was Sunday. At least, he was fairly certain it was Sunday - going on the idea that he was fairly certain the previous day was Saturday. The curtains over his small window were drawn, so there wasn't much light getting in; for that, at least, he was grateful.
However, he was fully awake - and that meant he wasn't getting back to sleep. With a weary groan, he hoisted himself out of the bed, picking up a pair of wrinkled jeans from the floor and carrying them into the bathroom.
After a long, warm shower- and pain reliever - he felt much better. He slipped on his jeans and found a clean shirt in his closet. The day had begun.
Normally wont to waste his mornings and afternoons away on the computer or in front of the television with a controller in his hand, Mokuba instead had a plan. Rebecca, that sneaky minx, was running off without giving him a proper goodbye.
And as Mokuba knew, that was just no way to be.
So grabbing his wallet and a set of Seto's keys, he set off to corner her at Yugi's and, if not win her ever-lasting love, then at least get her to accompany him to the dinner he was promised. He stopped quickly to grab some flowers to offer as a gift, then continued on towards his destination.
Yugi opened the door when he got there, obviously rather surprised to see him. "Oh, um... hi, Mokuba." Seeing the flowers, he could reasonably guess why the younger man had come. "Here to see Rebecca?" Mokuba nodded. "Ahh. Okay, then. She's in the guest room - leaving tomorrow."
"Oh, I know. And I'm here to catch her."
And Mokuba sped past him, leaving Yugi looking on in curious bemusement.

With any luck, I should have this finished Wednesday. We'll see.
