He figured the added excitement this morning just meant that Mokuba had already found a present for him and it was probably already in the house. He smirked at the thought of finding out which closet it was hidden in by walking around the house and watching Mokuba's reactions depending on which closet he was closest too.
But all plans for the day were cancelled as soon as his cell phone went off. In 5 minutes he had enough of the story to know he had to go to the office. It was the weekend, the normal IT head was on vacation and none of the back ups who knew how to do anything would do anything over the weekend. Part of it was his fault for keeping such tight reigns on the security programs himself that the weekend crew couldn't make some of the alterations necessary without him. Still, heads were going to roll.
With a quick shout to Mokuba that he wouldn't be gone long he was on his way to the office. Within minutes of arriving he was besieged by his frantic staff trying to explain how horrible it was and why it wasn't really their fault please don't fire them. Once they all finally shut up and let him look at the damage it took all of two minutes to fix. Partly because nothing had been broken. It was all a light show that looked impressive but didn't actually get into anything.
The irritation of being toyed with, doubled when he recognized the coding. "That bastard," he said under his breath. He looked at the clock 10:30AM. The timing was much more forethought than he would even have given Alastair credit for.
He stormed out of the office, the only explanation for what he had found was an "Idiots" tossed over his shoulder. The challenge in the message was clear, and hell if he wasn't going to meet it.

Seeing him at the counter, he walked right up behind him and barked, "What?"

"I see you got my message," he said as smoothly as he could. Tipping his head in a gesture, he led the way over to a corner by the windows where no one else was sitting. "You want to know, I'll tell you, but you better remember that we promised Agatha, no more fighting in her shop."

Kaiba stopped several feet from the table with his arms folded. "Talk."

Before Kaiba could react, he stepped forward and prodded a finger into his chest. "And you're going, because it's all Mokuba's idea. He's doing this for you."

"You expect me to believe that Mokuba told you to get my attention by hacking into Kaiba Corporation?"

"When does his party start?" Kaiba asked. He wasn't pleased by any of it, but he could stay away for a few hours to keep his brother happy. He would get the time to be back, and spend some time alone before being thrown into whatever Mokuba had planned.

"Hmpf," Kaiba 'said' brushing past Alastair to sit down at one of the tables. "It's insulting he thought it would take longer than 5 minutes to defeat you. If we had dueled I'd be half way back by now."
