"So tell me Mokie, dose Kaiba let ya' have sweets?" Mokuba shook his head as he placed some chocolate parfait in his mouth. "That a great thing about this life, Master Dartz basically lets ya' do what you want, as long as ya' do what he asked of ya'."

"Oh yea." Mokuba said, in between bits. "I've been meaning to ask, I know about the seal and stuff, but what happens to the souls that it takes?"

"Well, they feed the great beast of cores."

"They what?"

"You see," Valon said, leaning into Mokuba. "A long time ago, the world was a awesome place to be. Everyone got along and everything. But then one day, a evil arose. And things got very bad." Mokuba ate his cake, listening intently to everything that Valon was saying. "Then the Great Leviathan came and killed all of the evil doers, and only the pure of heart were left." Mokuba smiled sweetly. "But now, more evil people are in the world, so we need their souls so we can feel the beast."

"But he won't have anyone to destroy if we take all of there souls." Valon shook his head.

"There are a lot of evil people in this world Mokie. The beast wont get bored, believe me." Mokuba was reminded of his brother.

"I bet Kaiba tastes awful. I would spit him out." Valon laughed.

"Your gonna give the poor kid nightmares." Mai said. Mokuba shook his head.

"Don't worry about me."

"Yea' he's a tough little guy." Valon said, patting him on the back.

"That remains to be seen." Rafael said, looking down on Mokuba.

"Hey! I'm tough enough."

"I have no dought in the Mokuba, but you're just a child." He said. "And most young ones have a tendency to fall once the seal has fully gotten to them." Mokuba shook his head.

"I'm not like most young ones."

"I understand that much. But I'm still not sure."

"Aw, come on Raf!" Valon jeered. "He's a little me, and I handled it just fine didn't I?" Rafael looked at the child. "So I know that he will be fine." Mokuba smiled, taking another bite.

"But can he win?" Mai said. "I've seen Kaiba's skill first hand, he wont be easy to beat."

"Your forgetting one thing Mai. I have seen ALL of my brothers duels, nothing that he dose can take my by surprise." Valon smiled. He and Mokuba were the only ones in the room that had any faith in the child, but Valon's faith was all that he needed.

"You better get some sleep Mokie, you have a big day ahead of you."
Mokuba could not sleep. Kaiba could tell. He laid on the park bench, tying as hard as he could to just close his eyes. He had been up a long time, and if he could just relax he would fall asleep. But he was too tense to even do that. He had managed to loose Yugi, but he knew that he would catch up to him eventually.

He laughed to himself. He looked like a homeless guy. He was warring his trench coat, that was very dirty buy now, and sleeping on a bench. He thought briefly of what people would think of him as they walked by. A drunk, a druggie, a waste on society. That's what he thought, well, used to think. But now he knew differently. The people who slept on park benches were the some of the loneliest people in the world.

He sat up. He was two feet to tall or the bench was two feet too short, which ever. He held his locket in his hands, opening it to see a smiling little boy of about 4. Kaiba smiled. He could tell that his brother was having nightmares, about something. He hoped that Mokuba was all right, that he wasn't hurt. And he hoped that he could find him soon, for both of there sakes.
