Chapter Eight

Tea felt herself been dragged down the corridors of Kaiba's seemingly huge glider, semi conscious and dazed. Two strongly built arms pulled her along roughly but effortlessly, and most times her feet never touched the ground.

What had he given her?

She remembered screaming and then felt a sharp pain somewhere on her neck, before a feeling of total exhaustion and numbness overcome her.

Had he drugged her with something?

She felt her body been lifted up as the neared stairs in an unfamiliar section of the glider. A huge sign was clearly visible on the solid metal door with the words written in a bright tone of red, 'NO ENTRY- STAFF ONLY!'

Her captor took no notice and swung the door open with his free hand, despite how heavy it looked and sounded. She was flung into its pitched blackness like a rag doll, but although unsteady and ready to pass out, she miraculously regained her balance before falling.

The atmosphere as well as the temperature of the room was freezing and she involuntarily shivered, swaying slightly from side to side like a drunk.

Intuition screamed for her to do something, but her brain was too foggy and slow to process what was happening.

She felt a harsh shove on her shoulder and crumpled down to the floor without any restraint. Although slurred and slow she was able to mutter a few weak words that seemed to bounce off the walls and back at her. "Wha…why?" she moaned weakly.

She would have thought she was alone if he hadn't been moving around her so noisily. "Why…ar…are…you doing…this?" her head fell forward and she found that she was too weak to bring it back.

He didn't answer her.

Tears streamed from her eyes as she began to panic. She remembered his eyes, which had burnt into hers; they were wild, reckless and insane. He was capable of anything and everything.

Was this it? Was he going to kill her?

Her question remained unanswered, hanging thickly in the air with her insane and angry captor.

'I'm afraid I do not understand what you are trying to say Yuugi,' Yami mind linked to his best friend and lighter half.

Yuugi chuckled wickedly in response. 'Pharaoh please- it's not hard to understand.' Yami could feel his lighter half bursting with mischievous excitement.

'As a matter of fact, this whole 'going further business' is not as simple nor as easy to understand as I'm sure the next person would,' he sighed. He was only a few corridors down from Tea's room.

'No it's actually simple, just take your relationship to the next step,' Yuugi said impatiently. 'Before it gets boring.'

Yami pondered for a moment, wildly searching for answers that appeared to be quite blank. There was only one thing he could think of, but he was uncomfortable saying it, even to his lighter half.

'You don't mean…' He began in a small voice.

Yuugi perked up instantly, a feeling of achievement quite obvious in his unusually tainted aura that used to be innocent. "Yes!"

'But Yuugi!' the former pharaoh gasped, feeling his cheeks flush and his palms begin to sweat. 'Isn't it too soon to get married?'

And with that Yuugi fell backward in frustration.

Once Tea's eyes had adjusted to the light she was able to make out her captor's outline in the shadows. He hadn't done anything to her yet, which she was grateful for and the drug was wearing off, but at a painfully slow pace.

Things were slowly starting to un-blur and she was able to focus a little bit better on her surroundings. First she noticed that they weren't in a room, but in fact outside, hence the reason why it was freezing.

Second she noticed that he was leaning dangerously close the edge of the railing and just one push would send him right over board. That little fact made him either really dumb or really brave.

"What do you…want?" she wasn't expecting an answer from him, but she thought that she should at least try. He grunted, turning to face her. She couldn't exactly see his face, but she recognized him by the insanity of his pale green eyes.

"Its what do we want, my dear. And we want Kaiba to pay up for what Kaiba Corp did to our father's company…but it's what I want that you should worry about," his eyes and voice held a threatening edge that sent an even colder chill up her spine.

"What is it that you want then?" her voice quivered, she was almost too afraid to ask, and even more afraid of what the answer was. He smiled sadistically, a kind of smile that Kaiba had always worn, the smile she hated and yet this green eyed creep had made it seem a hundred times worse.

"What I want, is everything Kaiba wants," he smirked darkly. She almost thought for a second that she had stopped breathing. "What has that got to do with me?" she said in a small, frightened voice.

He took a dangerous, intimidating step forward, glaring down at her evilly. "I'm here to take the next thing he wants," he said darkly, his eyes glowing in the dark. "And guess what that something is?"

Tea screamed.

Okay they could call it whatever they liked; supernatural, hocus pocus, instinctive…whatever!

The point was that the feeling was so overwhelmingly powerful that Kaiba simply couldn't remain still. He was restless and agitated, but then again that could have been because his pride was badly bruised or he had simply overworked his already exhausted body.

It was by pure coincidence that he turned to look out his bedroom window and see it.

Twisting roughly in the wind and disappearing out of sight in a split second, Kaiba recognized Tea's faded light green corduroy jacket dash across his window to the hard ground below them.

It took only a few seconds for him to process what he had seen. Jacket. Outside. Falling…Tea!

'Holy Shit she's going to kill herself!' His mind screamed, but his body was already acting and within a few seconds he was heading towards his private exit attached to his room, shirtless… (AN: I had to add that)

Grasping the door handle he did a violent and powerful jerk, which opened the door easily and swung it open…there was no way he'd let her die.

Bang!

It happened too quickly for her understand it right away.

Her crazy green-eyed captor had been holding her over the edge of the railing bending down to kiss her, or bite her…one of the two. Then they had both heard a metallic click and the wall suddenly…opened?

Whatever it did it knocked the guy right off her and she was falling backwards over the edge into the icy depths below when…

Kaiba!

Her eyes widened, she felt a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist as she was lifted up back to safety. Once again she was saved, but the look in Seto's eyes startled her. Was that…fear?

"Tea are you okay?" he asked, seeming shaken up, which was totally unlike him. She couldn't answer right away, but she nodded.

The alien expression in his eyes didn't fade, but the moment he spotted the creepy green-eyed guy on the floor…well he returned to being Kaiba. "What the hell are you doing here Bubbles?" he growled, pulling Tea slightly behind him in a protective way.

The figure on the floor stirred and groaned angrily clutching his head. "Screw you Kaiba!" he spat, but Kaiba didn't so much as flinch. "By the way, you're little girlfriend there- tastes good!" he said wittily, running his tongue over his lips like a psycho.

Tea gripped onto Kaiba's arm, a little dazed and confused, and terribly frightened. She said the only thing that came to mind, "Bubbles?" Like a fool she glanced around her looking for round floating things trying to figure out what Kaiba was talking about.

Both of them ignored her.

"Watch it Bubbles," Kaiba said dangerously, his dark blue eyes growing almost black as he glared at the green-eyed guy on the floor, who seemed to be cowering away from him.

"Where?" Tea asked dumbly, feeling her strength drain from her, the after effects of the drug kicking in. Kaiba side glanced at her, noticing how pale and disorientated she looked. "Where what?" he asked, his tone sharp and almost irritated.

"The bubbles?" she slurred, her eyes unable to focus on his. He raised an eyebrow. Was she drunk?

"Not too bright is she?" The green-eyed creep mocked, a stiff laughter escaping his throat.

Kaiba jerked away from Tea and caught the creep square in the jaw before she could even take a breath. The thunderous sound of the hit almost echoed through the night, and the green-eyed guy fell back onto the ground…completely out cold.

"That was so mean!" she said softly, "Why do you have to be so mean all the time!" She felt as though she was close to tears, but had no idea why. Kaiba looked at her with an astounded expression.

"What are you kidding me?" he gasped.

She staggered forward and almost fell, but Kaiba caught her just in time.

"Where are they?" she whined, she hated been confused and why wouldn't Kaiba just answer her? Why was he keeping the invisible bubbles a secret? He was just been plain mean and she wasn't going to stand for it.

He looked at her completely confused. "Where are what?" he asked sounding a little irritated. "The bubbles!" she choked, suddenly feeling as though she was going to puke her guts out.

For a moment he just stared at her blankly, before finally deciding to answer her. "There are no bubbles…it's a surname." He didn't know whether he should take her seriously or have her admitted to the hospital wing.

She looked incredulously at him as though he had told her he was ET and the glider was a space ship…going home.

He was about to be sarcastic; when he noticed a dark painful looking spot on her neck in which fresh blood had begun to ooze from. Just by a quick glance he was able to diagnose her sudden…craziness. She had been drugged, and just by looking at how she was behaving and the kind of person that had drugged her, he doubted that it was a legal one.

She began to shiver violently and pressed her body closer to his to keep warm, which seemed cute in a weird sort of way. He couldn't help but smile and put his arms around her shoulders. "Let's get you inside and leave the dog outside," he said softly, glancing over his shoulder at the troubled sleeping form that lay still in the far corner of the platform.

She didn't resist as he lead her through the camouflaged door that led directly back into his room, and in fact held onto him as though she would fall at any second, not that he would let her of course.

They were back where they started; only now she didn't seem to be in any condition to run off and hide like she did the last time. Glancing down at her he noticed that her eyes were staring squarely into his, seeming to sober slightly.

"I guess its becoming a habit of mine, saving you Gardner," he said softly, without any hint of sarcasm or meanness.

"Kaiba…" Tea whispered, her face inching closer to his.

"Yes Tea?" he whispered back, a jolt running up his spine.

"Kiss me."
