Where are you

Chapter 11

Seto pov...

----------------------------------------------

Joey is acting...different. I've noticed it for a while and I mean long before all this stuff with aika. he seemed more angry not like his usual self. he never showed it around yugi but when at my house... it was like he was a completely different person. I asked him about it he just smiled and said it was nothing. it hurt to think that he would hide behind a fake smile thinking I wouldn't notice or care. I became angry and left to see aika.

I remember this happened nearly everyday until I found him in the kitchen that night.

Seto's memory--

"Hey Mokuba have u seen aika?" I asked

"I think she went to the kitchen"

When I got there I was surprised to see joey pinning her to the wall. aika looked calm but hadn't seen me yet. joey was saying something to her about Egypt but I couldn't hear properly. Aika looked at me her eyes were full of fear. I snapped and had joey leave.

"Hey mokey" aika said

"Are u ok aika!?" worry filled his voice

"I'm fine I'm sure he..." she stopped,

"Aika what was he saying to you" I asked trying to hide my anger

"Priest Seth" was all she said before running to her room.

I don't stop her. I was frozen. I never told her about the ancient Egypt crap yugi told me. I believed it not that I would admit it of course. How did she know.... unless. I quickly made my way to her room. She was being treated by our doctor, a bruise was appearing on the right side of her face. her arms wrapped in bandages. the doctor left and I sat on aika's bed.

"Who are you?" I asked

"Beginning to figure it out" she smiled but looked sad, "I am your cousin seto just like I was in eygpt. the difference being in eygpt I was Yami and atemu's sister. I guess I like the fact I'm still your relative but no longer theirs."

"Why what did they do?"

"I can't tell you but lots of people who are now happy have caused me grief. I was gifted by the goddess Isis in Egypt and I no longer can control my powers. even then my control was slipping because of their horrific behaviour." she was crying

"What about joey?" I asked dreading the answer

"The sad soldier corrupted by jealousy he was the first of many to use me." she snapped angrily,"but I forgave every single one of them because of you seto. even though you didn't know a thing about what was going on you saw how sad I was and tried to help. yugi, heba, marik and you seto where helping me even though every single one of you forgot me in the end."

"Aika.."

"Leave" she said and I did

End of memory---

I looked at joey. he wasn't reacting to anything.malik was still on the floor though he looked like he was waking up. why wasn't joey saying or doing anything? then I thought of something. I learned forward till I was right next to joeys ear.

"Hey mutt are you deaf!!" I shout

Everyone jumped but joey didn't even notice.

"I thought so" I sighed

"Is he really deaf" heba questioned

I nodded

"How did that happen?!" Malik asks

"I see u woke up quickly"

"Yeh" he looked down obviously sad

"What's wrong?" heba asked

"Aika I forgot her" he began to cry

"Hey I forgot what I did to aika as well but at least we didn't hurt her" I put my hand on his shoulder

"That's not why I'm crying" he sobbed

"Then why aibou?" I ask

"Joey is a horrible person I saw what he did. It..it.." he sobbed more

"What did he do" anxiety filled my heart

"He...." Malik looked at me, "he raped her nearly every damn day"

there was a silence that lasted nearly a eternity. raped..... joey raped......aika

I turned to face joey again. I slapped him. the sound echoed in the silence. I then went upstairs leaving everyone frozen. joey wasn't the person I fell in love with.
