What if...

"Leave me alone you stupid mutt" said Kaiba harshly to Joey who couldn't figure out what he did wrong this time. "You are of no interest to me, I only want to duel little Yugi here" said Kaiba while he glared at Yugi for a short time. "You, little puppy-dog, are just a waist of my time" and with this, Kaiba turned around and walked away.

Joey glared at Kaiba's back and sighed. "What is his problem?" Yugi just patted Joey on the back. "Don't worry Joey, he's allways like this, you know that" he said. "Yeah" started Joey "but I'm the only one he calls a dog." Joey watched how Kaiba crossed the street and suddenly dropped his stuff. Joey sighed, typical Kaiba, won't leave his stuff behind, even though he is the richest guy ever.

Suddenly, while Joey's friends were happily discussing their strategies, Joey saw how a car was racing full speed trough the streets, and he also noticed how Kaiba was still picking up his stuff, thinking that everyone would just step aside for him. Joey suddenly rushed forward yelling at kaiba who completely ignored him. Joey just tackled kaiba out of the way right before the car hit him.

Kaiba quikly lifted himself up from the ground and turned around to yell at Joey but when he did turn around, he was speechless. Joey was laying on the ground, screaming in pain while a car was standing on his legs. The driver jumped out of the car to call an ambulance while Joey's friends just ran towards him.

Tears were springing in Joey's eyes and he gritted his teeth while his friends were panicking and talking to him but clearly, he wasn't listening. Kaiba was still standing there, speechless as he watched how Joey slowly became white and let his head drop on the floor, staring at the sky, still with the pained look in his eyes. Suddenly, he noticed Kaiba was staring at him and laughed a little. "Still the...same eh?....Kaiba?" said Joey slowly with much difficulty. "Not even...a thank...." Joey lost conciousness and Tea stared at Kaiba, a little mad. But she was wise enough to shut up. Yugi hugged Joey and layed his head in his lap while he waited for the ambulance.

After a long time of waiting, finally the ambulance came. It took a very long time, but eventually, they managed to get Joey from under the car. Kaiba was still not able to say a word He had allways complained about Joey, he had allways called him names, and he had thought that he hated him for sure but now...he had saved his life. But to what prize? What if Kaiba didn't have to be so selfisch, maybe this wouldn't have happened at all. He was cursing at himself mentally and watched how Joey was being carried into the ambulance. Kaiba watched how Joey's friends jumped in too and ran home to get his own car, to follow the ambulance.

As soon as he got his limo, he raced after the ambulance. He couldn't loose track of it, he had to see if he could do something for him. This wasn't fair, he had to be laying in that ambulance, not Joey, this just wasn't right! It started to get dark and the sun was slowly fading away behind the horizon when the ambulance stopped at the hospital.

Kaiba parked his limo at the side of the road and jumped out to catch up with Joey and his friends. He ran after Yugi and quikly catched up with him. He stopped, breathing heavilly, still not saying a word, but saying enough with his eyes. Tristan was pacing around the room while Joey was gone. He was worried about his best friend and didn't know what to do. Tea was crying in her hands and Yugi was suddenly standing next to yami who had materialized next to him and tried to comfort him.

Kaiba leaned against the wall and tried to reamin calm. He didn't care how much everything would cost, but he would pay it. This was all his fault and the least he could do was make sure that Joey would be allright. While he was thinking like this, he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder and quikly turned around to face yami.

"This isn't your fault Kaiba" said Yami as if he knew what he was thinking right now. "Joey chose his own path." Kaiba looked into the pharaoh's big eyes and shook his head. "but what if..." "What if the sky would fall on our heads" interrupted Yami him. "We don't know the future, there is no way that you could've seen this coming. It was his fate and no one can stop that" with this Yami turned around and tried to calm Tristan and Tea. "But I could've" said Kaiba and he sank to his knees, not able to think clearly anymore. He noticed that yami was staring at him without blinking and just stared back, thinking he was wrong, thinking this was all his fault.

Suddenly, a nurse came in with a concerned expression on her face. She didn't look happy at all and she just walked over to the small group to tell them what was wrong with their dear friend.
