"Mokuba! This isn't funny anymore!" Joey started to get angry. "Why does this house have to be so dang big?"

"Master Seto will be very angry that you lost his brother," a voice said from behind him. Joey jumped startled and spun around.

"What the...I thought he told you to leave," Joey said angrily. Maxwell just stared at him. "And he's not lost, he's here somewhere, I know it. It's just a matter of where. Mokuba, come on!" He turned his back to Maxwell again and started opening all the doors and leaving them open as he walked down all the hallways.

"Joey? Mokuba? Are you guys still here?" Seto's voice called through the house.

"Oh great, now what?" Joey muttered.

"Over..." Joey pushed Maxwell up against a wall and covered his mouth. Seto's footsteps moved away from them.

"What are you doing? Trying to get me killed?" he said distressed. He let go of the servant and sighed. "What's the use? It's not like I belong here anyway. I guess dreams never really do come true."

"I'm sorry, Joey," a timid voice responded. Joey looked up the hallway at Mokuba, who emerged from one of the rooms. "I was just playing around..."

"Mokuba!" Joey ran over and hugged him. Mokuba winced out of discomfort.

"You can let go now," he said. Joey released him and stood back up

"What were you thinking?"

"Master Seto is coming back," Maxwell informed them.

"It's Master Kaiba to you punk," Mokuba said angrily.

"Yeah," Joey chimed in smiling.

"He's Master Kaiba to you too Joey," Mokuba smiled slyly. Joey scowled.

"What are you guys doing over here?" Kaiba walked up confused.

"We were playing a game," Joey said. "And I thought you fired him." Joey pointed to Maxwell.

"Maxwell? But I just hired him. Why would I do that?" Kaiba smirked. Joey looked at him in disbelief.

"Very funny," he said unamused. "So why is he really here?"

"To watch Mokuba...with Mokuba's permission of course." Seto looked down at Mokuba for confirmation. Mokuba decided it wasn't the right time to protest and shrugged.

"Why not?" he said almost boredly. Seto nodded appreciatively.

"So I believe we had a lunch meeting," he said turning to Joey. Joey looked at him crossly.

"I'd rather that you not refer to me like I'm a client. It makes me feel unimportant," Joey said as they started down the hallway.

"Since when do I care about your feelings?" Seto smiled.

"You jerk," Joey said also smiling. Mokuba watched as Joey hit his brother playfully and for some reason instead of being happy that his brother was finally showing his old self, the happy self, he was jealous.
