----------------------------------------
Selena Kaiba was up in her room, brushing her hair before giving a small sigh. She just seemed to stare at herself in her mirror before placing the brush back on her side table, satisfied with how she looks she leaves her room. Peeking out into the hall, glancing right than left seeing no one. Well what time was it anyways, morning....no wait afternoon. It was a weekend and she had no school, Selena had already done her homework putting it back in her bag for Monday. Hearing a beep behind her, she turned and smiled seeing Squiggles wadling after her. "It's not my fault you woke up so late, next time don't set yourself to snooze". The penguin gave off more beeps, and scurried pass her towards the stairs leading downstairs.
What followed next was the sound of bouncing, beeping and finally a thunk. Shaking her head she hurried towards the stairs, and peeked down seeing the penguin scrambling to get up. "It's your fault not mine, but I guess i'll help you". Walking down the stairs and coming to the bottom, the brunette picks up the penguin and rights him before standing again and heads off to the kitchen. She knew she could just ask a servant to get her something, but she didn't quite like the idea of being waited on hand and foot. So imagine the look she got when she just walked into the kitchen, ignoring the people in there she went over to a cupboard and opened it.
Looking over the items, she picked out a package of cookies and left without saying anything. The Kaiba mansion was huge, with the upstairs where Seto had his office and then the den with the huge window looking out towards the front gates and the vast grounds. How could she forget, when she was younger and Seto and Mokuba were brought here. Her uncle would spend hours tutoring Seto, and making him study. She and Mokuba would color pictures and draw, or play games. She knew Seto wanted to join them, but her uncle was strict. Everytime she tryed to talk to him, he would tell her to go to her room.
Bittersweet memories, he had treated Noah the same way. He would get to play with her only awhile when she visited, than she and her parents would leave. Frowning she went to the living room area, and slumped on a couch before opening the package of cookies up. Squiggles came and joined her, as she put her feet up and just layed back. Maybe she would go out later, or just stay here and be lazy.

Seto sighed and pushed yet another business proposal from Industrial Illusions off to the side,as well as more paperwork from Zigfried regarding his holographic imaging technology for duelling. Stretching out he decided it was time for a break and made his way down the long hallway to the stairs and into the main room where he saw Selena slumped on a couch.
"Hey Selena what are you up to?" Kaiba would ask as he took a seat in his chair. The butler would immediately bring him a sandwich he had asked for and his favorite drink. "Have I shown you my new deck that's bound to get me Yugi's title? I think you'll like it. It's full of dragon monsters."

The younger Kaiba brother, ever eager to open a few new packs of Duel Monsters booster packs that he'd decided to purchase on a whim instead of asking Seto for some of his or any that he wanted at all, was thrilled at the prospect of getting a random assortment of cards. He had sat there on his rather large, comfortable bed that he sunk into, pulling apart each foil package with much excitement, getting a decent assortment from each pack.
Satisfied with the purchase and the overall turnout, he pulled out his deck and placed them on top, taking his time to shuffle them through. He glanced at the deck's entirety, knowing it was no where near the impressive caliber that he knew his older brother's deck was, but it was still a good deck of it's own right. Tucking them away in his desk drawer for safe keeping, he left his room, shutting the door behind him.
Mokuba was in a fairly good mood as he trumped down the stairs to the main room where he found his brother actually relaxing for a change and talking with Selena. It brought a smile to his face as he realized they would actually spend a bit of time together for the first time in a long while. He reached the last step and strode into the room, taking a seat beside Selena.
"Haven't missed much, have I?" he asked rather cheekily, smiling at them both this time. He hated to miss out on good conversations, in truth.

As she had gotten onto her third cookie, Selena heard footsteps coming downstairs. Squiggles scurried under the couch and stayed there, knowing all to well who that was. The brunette Kaiba simply rolled her eyes at the penguin, and shook her head giggling. Glancing over the top of the couch, she saw the familiar figure of her step cousin strode into the living room area where she was. Her blue eyes never leaving him, until she sat down in a chair opposite her. When he asked her what she was up to, she gave a small shrug. "Just lounging around, there's nothing better to do. Though I might go out, still thinking about it though". Unlike her, she knew that the butler would make sure to give Seto anything he asked for. Such as a sandwich and drink, she liked to do things for herself. Eating the cookie in her hand, she swung her legs over the side of the couch and sat up in a sitting position. Setting the box down on a coffee table.
She listened as she asked if she had seen his new deck, great he was going on about duel monsters again. Selena simply shook her head no, before rolling her eyes. "You know I don't duel, or care very much for it." She was not a dueler, nor did she even really care about it. Well maybe just a little curious, but that was it. And of course he was going on about defeating that boy Yugi again, was he ever going to just give up. "Your going on about Yugi again, why do you want to beat him so badly". That question should be obvious should it not, Seto wanted to be number one in Japan and not second rate to Yugi. To each their own I guess, hearing another set of footsteps on the stairs she once again glanced over and saw Mokuba.
A smile came to her lips as he came into the room, and sat down beside her. "No you didn't miss much, Seto was telling me about his new deck". Sliding off the couch, she got on her hands and knees and reached under the couch pulling out Squiggles. The penguin squirmed and beeped as he was pulled out, before getting out of her grasp and leaving the living room. "Oh no.....I think he has malfunctioned, and usually when that happens he kind of.......um gets into trouble". She bit her bottom lip, before hearing a crash somewhere in the mansion and stands up.

As Selena's penguin caused mayhem throughout the house,Kaiba would push a button on the wall,turning on a speaker. "Kemo,get down here and bring a tech specialist with you to fix something for Selena. And you better ensure it doesn't break again or else." says Kaiba. "Yes sir." comes the voice of Kemo from another room in the house.
"Now Selena,I know you don't like duelling,but beating Yugi is very important to me. The title King of Games should belong to me and nobody else. The Geek Squad's leader doesn't deserve it." Having spotted Mokuba he would turn and place his hand upon the boys head.
"Besides,with my new deck and the start of the Kaiba Corp Duel Monsters Grand Prix,I know for a fact Yugi and that trained monkey of his Wheeler will be there. And I look forward to seeing that pug's face when I beat his friend."

Mokuba only nodded as Selena told him that Seto was talking about his new deck, then turned to listen to his brother directly. He knew as well as Seto did that Selena wasn't too keen for Duel Monsters, considering how much of their lives revolved around it, business or otherwise. Mokuba had tried when they were kids to make it easier for her by not talking about it, a self-imposed rule he made for himself even to this day. Now that Seto was downstairs with them and talking about it made him inevitably bend that rule. Well, not before he watched Selena's little penguin, Squiggles, malfunction and scurry about with animated motions. He chuckled to himself as he thought of the few encounters he had had with the penguin and how it seemed to only want to revolve around Selena and hide from others. Quite the shy thing it was most times.
When Seto laid his hand on Mokuba's head, the younger brother shifted in his seat so he'd be more comfortable, sprawling over the side of the chair.
"I don't know, big brother, what if Yugi doesn't show? I mean, maybe he's gotten tired of dueling and wants things to calm down..." He knew the idea was highly improbable, but it was still possible. Yugi wasn't the type to let the fame get to his head, nor did he think much of being surrounded by cameras constantly. Mokuba wasn't 100% sure, but he still threw the ideas out there.

----------------------------------------
Selena continued to hear Squiggles causing mayhem throughout the mansion, hearing another crash before Seto called for someone. Hmmm now why didn't she think of that, probably because she was so worried about her penguin and his malfunction. "You shouldn't threaten the staff Seto, can't you be nicer". Yeah right, like that was ever going to happen. Seto was not the kind of person to ever be nice, especially when it came to the staff inside the mansion or his co-workers at Kaiba Corp. The only time he showed his soft side was when he was with her and Mokuba, every other time he was serious and focused on his duel monsters and ways of defeating Yugi Mutou. Ugh is that all he ever thought about, was beating that kid. Okay not a kid, he was a teenager. But all she heard was i'm gonna beat Yugi, i've got this new deck that will get rid of him this time. An obsession, that's what Seto had and it made her mad sometimes though she never spoke aloud to her cousin.
As Seto went on about how beating Yugi was important, and that he should be number one all she did was roll her eyes. "You go and do that then, since it's all you go on about". Hearing the beeping sound of Squiggles, Selena turned and gave Mokuba a look that said 'sorry, but I can't stand Seto going on and on about beating Yugi' and then turns and runs off to look for her penguin. Catching the malfunctioned penguin, she held it in her arms and waited as the tech specialist came to repair him. When all was said and done, the specialist put the penguin down and then left. Sighing lightly she clapped her hands together as Squiggles jumped into her arms, she remembered that she and Mokuba would chase him around the mansion when they were younger.
Sitting on the stairs, Selena could still hear everything that was being said. So Seto was going to hold a Grand Prix, and show off his new deck. Well whatever, he could do as he pleases. She then heard what Mokuba said, he did have a point. What if Yugi was tired of dueling, even though she has heard he is number one in japan. She knows Yugi wouldn't let all that fame go to his head, of course Seto would take it all in and enjoy every minute of it. Standing up she went back into the living room area, and holding Squiggles in one arm and her other with a hand on her hip she frowned lightly. "All I hear is you saying how your going to beat Yugi, they way I see it......you will never beat him". Maybe that was being a little too bold, but Seto sounded like a broken record which played over and over.

Seto would shoot both his little brother and his cousin a glare that he normally reserved for that mutt Joey Wheeler for a split second before calming down somewhat,remembering they are the only two family he has left.
"Yugi and the rest of the Geek Squad will show up trust me on that. Yugi has the title King of Games to live up to,and if he doesn't show up at this tournament to put that title on the line,then he doesn't deserve it at all." Seto says in a sharp tone. And we all know that his loyal bloodhound Wheeler will drag him along regardless because Wheeler is just dead set on thinking he can beat me in this game."
Remaining silent,Seto would take a seat on the large couch once again. "Now as for how I treat my employees,I can't let them turn into slackers like Wheeler,so I am hard on them Selena..."his tone was softer now. "However,if they prove their loyalty to the company,I do recognize hard work..."
