On Monday at school, Seto notice how Joey is quiet around him. He is curious of why and that it bothers him. Usually he loves it how quiet can be when he gets in the last word in. But this time, it’s different. He saw Joey walking don the hall. He stops him wanting to know. “Usually I don’t care for others. Especially you. But why are you this quiet?” He demand.

Joey shrugs and shoves Seto out of his way not wanting to talk to him. For he was upset with him. Though Seto did save his life, but he wasn’t grateful that he was taken care of.

Seto narrowed his eyes and blocks his path. Can’t stand the feeling of fighting within himself. One side wants to walk away and leave Joey alone but the other half wants to know what is bothering Joey. “Look here mutt. You better answer me or else.”

Joey growled and glared. “You better be lucky that I don’t have any sliver dog breath.”

Seto gave a dangerous growl and a glare. He clenches his fist and shoves Joey then walked away.

Joey turned and watches him leave. “Yeah just keep walking Kaiba.” Then he walks away.

As Seto walked, a sliver necklace was forcefully put around his neck. His eyes widen as he tries to breathe right. Then someone grabs him and roughly tosses him onto the floor of a dark room. He lays there stun.

As he starts to sit up, he felt as though his own strength abandoning him as he heard a laugh. “Well well. It looks like I got the Great Seto Kaiba down on his knees like some fleabag dog.”

Seto glared as he tries to force himself to stand. “What do you want from me?”

“What do you think what I want?” The voice said as Seto could hear his brother crying for help.

“Let go of my little brother or you’ll know my wrath.” Seto growled.

The voice laughs. “Oh really now? How can you when you can’t even keep yourself up?”

Seto had enough and used what little strength he had and lunges at where the voice is coming from setting Mokuba free. Mokuba then ran out to find some help after seeing his older brother got kneed in the gut.

Mokuba ran down the hall to find Yugi and the others. “Yugi. Joey. WAIT!!”

Yugi stopped and looked at Mokuba. “What is it?”

Mokuba panted as he talked. “My brother is in trouble and need help now.”

Joey quickly stepped in. “I’ll go and help him. You guys wait here.” He said while running to help Seto.

Meanwhile, Seto is on the ground again but this time, a man with dark clothes on has his foot on Seto’s shoulder while pressing down and pulling back his arm. Seto winces trying not to give in the extreme pain. “Get off......or you’ll pay for this.....” Seto growled both in pain and in anger.

The man smirked. “You are no positions of threatening me.” He pulls his arm back even further.

Then Joey suddenly burst in and knocked the man over. “Who said I would?” Seto said as he could relieved that the pressure is released from his shoulder. Joey quickly knocked the man unconscious then walked over to where and just stands there.

“I don’t know if I should help you anymore. We are even now.” Joey said as Seto is trying to get up. “I taken care of you and in return I got pushed aside like I was nothing to you. Would it hurt you if you say at least thank you for me? You think that you don’t need anybody but you do Kaiba.” Joey paused. “Since you think that you can do things on your own I should leave.” And Joey left him.

Seto closed his eyes as he felt more pain from within than in his arm. He finally manages to get up and stumbles outside. To his surprise, Joey is there leaning against the wall. Seto swallowed his pride for now and asked for help. “....Wheeler...Joey. I know that you are upset with me for good reason and.....I’m....sorry for that.”

“Yeah, AFTER I said something.” Joey snorted at him.

Seto sights. “I need help. Will you help me?”

“Why? All you are going to do is push me aside.” Joey said not looking at him.

Seto looked down. “.....Joey, I know that actions speaks louder than words, since that Saturday was cut short......I was thinking to make up everything up. I’ll give you an extra day to be yours.”

Joey hears this but doesn’t believe it. He looked At Seto seeing that he was serious. He was sorry and needed help willing to do anything to make it up. He thought about it and takes the chance. to be with him again but maybe this time to help him see something. He nod. “Alright, I’ll forgive you.” He then took off the necklace and let Seto use him for support. Joey steadies him and walks him to his limo. Zero helps Seto in. Then Joey looked at Zero. “Pick me up on Saturday. Okay? See ya’” Joey said as he walked home.
