The other members of the big five just stood in shock. They couldn't believe it! The long lost prince, the brother the king has been searching for all these years has returned!

"How can it be? How could the king just happen upon his brother and not even know it!" Crump said.

"I've heard it rumored that he suspected the kid might be. However it seems that he never thought to try the rod on him." Johnson said.

"Never mind that now!" Gansley said.

"He's right you know, if that brat is discovered holding that like that then our plans will be ruined!" Nezbit said.

With that thought in mind, they charged the stage. While Johnson and Nezbit tried to help Yami, Ryo, Bakura and their guards try to stop Seto who was now trying to strangle Leichter, Gansley and Crump confront Mokuba.

"Give me that!" Gansley said taking the cloth out of Mokuba's hand. "Now hand me the rod!"

Mokuba shook his head no and backed away. 'No! I'm not giving them anything!'

Mokuba was backed into the wall. When they both lunged for him, Mokuba ducked and ran forward and frantically tugged on Ryo's shirt. Ryo stopped trying to stop Seto and focused on Mokuba.

"Tell that brat to hand over the object to my partner." Crump said.

Ryo was confused till he saw that Mokuba was holding the same object that the other guy dropped.

"Let me see that Mokuba." Ryo said but as he tried to touch it, it shocked him. "That's weird why can you hold it but I can't."

"It's not important just hand it over! It can be held with this cloth." Gansley said.

"Okay that's weird. Look, I have a better idea. Why don't you hand me that cloth and I'll get it." Ryo said.

"No way just make the brat hand it over." Crump said.

"Well why don't we see what Master Yami has to say about this." Ryo said.

Fear and panic welled up inside them the LAST thing they wanted was for Yami or Seto to find out who Mokuba really was!

"Fine here!" Gansley said throwing the cloth at Ryo.

"Here kiddo let me have it." Ryo said.

Mokuba gladly handed the rod to Ryo.

"Now just hand that to us." Crump said.

"I think not. I think I'll keep a hold of it." Ryo said holding it over his head.

Ryo turned around when it was taken out of his hand. It seemed the others were able to finally free Leichter from Seto's grip. It turned out to be Seto who snatched the rod from him. It also surprised him to see Seto holding it by the metal base.

Then Yami quickly took it away from him using the cloth to handle it. He thought it was very strange.

'Why can Mokuba and now Seto hold it with the base but no one else touches it without that cloth. When I tried to take it from Mokuba it shocked me.' Ryo thought.

"Let me have it Seto. I don't want you to try to vaporize him with it."

"You're a kill joy. I wouldn't have vaporized him. Killed or maimed him maybe." Seto said.

"Very funny." Yami said. "Felecia!" With that, the rod disappeared.

"What did you do with it?" Gansley said.

"I put it in a place where you and your friends will never get your hands on it!" Yami said.

That of course did not sit well with any of them!

"Now, get out of my site before I change my mind and throw you all in the dungeon!" Seto said.

They grumbled and walked away arguing.

Seto then turned his attention to Ryo and Mokuba.

"What are you two doing here?" Seto asked.

"Well Mokuba and I were playing in the garden when one of those men told me that Bakura wanted to talk to me just inside. So, since I'd be just inside and made Mokuba promise to stay where I could see him I went inside. I came back to tell the guy that Bakura was nowhere to be seen he said he was mistaken and left. But then I noticed that Mokuba was crying. He said the man didn't hurt him but then insisted on see you two." Ryo said.

Seto bent down to his level. "Hey what's wrong kiddo?"

Mokuba didn't say anything just walked over and hugged his neck.

"It's okay kiddo, its all right."

Mokuba sat up and looked at Seto crying. "C-can I s-stay with y-you?"

"I don't know kiddo." Seto said.

"I don't know why not Seto, it's not like what we're doing anything really important or anything. Its just decision-making, that's all. There's no real reason he can't stay." Yami said.

"Well alright then kid, looks like you get to spend the day with us." Seto said.

Mokuba smiled and hugged him tight.

"Well Ryo looks like you get the day off. We'll take care of him." Yami said ruffling Mokuba's hair.

"Thanks see you later kiddo."

"Bye Ryo."

At the same time, it seemed Mokuba's old family was waiting to see the king.

"Mom, why did I have to come?" Noah whined.

"The same goes for me. I'd have rather waited till tomorrow rather than getting up this early!" Asana said.

"Will you two keep quite! If we didn't come this early we would never get the chance to pay our respects!" Ivera said.

"But mother we've been trying almost every single time they have royal court to get close enough to the king to pay our respects." Asana said.

"Yes and every single time we come we can never get close enough before it shuts down for the day." Noah complained.

"Well if the two of you hadn't taken so long to get ready, we'd have been threw by now!"

"I doubt we'll make it this time mother! The lines just too long!" Asana said.

"No, one way or the other we will make it and we will see the king!" Ivera said.

Seto had Mokuba sitting on his knee and he and Yami explained what they were doing. Mokuba was actually enjoying it. Then he spotted Noah!

"S-Seto." Mokuba whispered.

"What is it kiddo, if you're going to stay here you have to keep quite." Seto said.

Yami noticed he was upset. "What is it kiddo, what's wrong?"

"N-Noah's h-here." Mokuba said.

"What? Where?" Yami asked.

"B-by t-the d-door." Mokuba said.

"Uh, Seto he's right. What are we going to do?" Yami asked.

"I guess there's only one thing we can do." Seto said.

"Just what would that be?" Yami asked.

"We have to confront them and tell them the reality. Make sure they agree not to cause trouble and not try to get Mokuba back." Seto asked.

"Seto are you sure that's a good idea?" Yami asked.

"Would you rather them get up here and cause a commotion when they see me holding Mokuba?"

"I guess you're right. There was no way they could have known then that you were the king and there might be trouble if they see who we really are and realize we're the ones who kidnapped Mokuba. I don't think we need anymore bad press or trouble after what just happened." Yami said.

Seto called over a couple of guards and had the family moved to the royal chamber.
