Ryo and Shizuka finished unloading the wagon.

"Well I guess we should really get going." Ryo said.

"No, grandpa could watch Mokuba and we could go get something to eat."

"That's nice but I really can't. I'd really get into trouble if they find out I just left him here to go out with you, besides I wouldn't feel right about leaving him here. I know your grandfather is more than capable of looking after him but he's my responsibility, it wouldn't be right. Look, maybe after he goes to bed we can hook up. I'm sure the king and Master Atemu won't mind."

"Okay I'll be here waiting."

Ryo bought the board games, a soccer ball, and a soft plastic ball the size of a baseball. Then he bought a couple of more, bigger balls the size of basketballs. Then Ryo thought of something.

"If you want I was going to take Mokuba and get something to eat. You're welcome to join us."

"Can I grandpa?" Shizuka asked.

"Certainly my dear." Sugoroku said.

"Great, maybe afterwards we can try that new thing that they've had for a while. It's called a moving picture. People say it's really good. I've heard others complain that it's too bad it's only black and white and no sound. But a lot of people say it's cool to watch anyway." Shizuka said.

"Sounds like fun." Ryo said. "Let's go."

As Shizuka, Ryo and Mokuba went to eat, then movie, Joey had said goodbye to Serenity and was returning to go back to duty.

"Hey Joey, sorry to hear about your sister, man." Honda said.

"Thanks, I really wish there was something more I could do for her but I can't." Joey said going downstairs and back to work.

The next day King Kujaku had received a phone call and so wrapped up his business and left.

Mokuba and Ryo were outside throwing a ball around when they happened to see someone a little taller than Mokuba walk by. They couldn't see his face cause he was loaded down with scrolls. He didn't even realize when he'd dropped some.

Mokuba noticed it though, grabbed some up, handed some to Ryo, went back and picked up the rest.

"Mokuba, where did you find these?" Ryo asked, remembering the person who had just left had some.

"T-that person d-dropped them." Mokuba told him.

"Oh well then I guess it'd only be fair to return them then wouldn't it?" Ryo said.

Mokuba nodded.

They took the scrolls and they managed to catch up and even pick up more scrolls that he had dropped along the way, as they got closer Mokuba started to whimper.

"What's wrong Mokuba?" Ryo asked.

Mokuba shook his head and continued. Soon they arrived in a room next door to the doctor's office, which told Ryo why Mokuba was whimpering. He never liked going near the doctor's office especially when it was time for treatments.

"Hello?" Ryo called out.

"Oh hello, can I help you? Dr. Solomon isn't in right now."

"Yugi wasn't it?" Ryo asked.

"Oh hey yeah now I remember you. You come to help the little one there with his treatments." Yugi said.

"Yeah."

"So what are you doing here? It's too early for treatments." Yugi said.

"Well you dropped these scrolls and we were wanting to return them." Ryo said.

"Oh thank you I would have been going mad if I had lost them." Yugi said.

"So what are you doing with all of these?"

"They're magical scrolls. A powerful magician named Ishtar gave them to me. He's been teaching me magic. He gave me these to study up on more."

"That's really nice of him." Ryo said.

"Yeah." Yugi said, "Please come in and have a seat, it's Mokuba right?" Yugi asked.

Mokuba nodded his head.

"Well you're welcome to look around but try not to break anything."

"T-thanks." Mokuba said.

"Now, as I was saying." Yugi started. "I've really been trying to focus more on healing. I haven't found anyone willing to give me a chance. I mean if it was just a small cut or scrape to give me a chance to at least try to help them. I think I could do it. I'd love to try a bigger wound but I would like to at least try smaller wounds before trying to tackle larger ones." Yugi said.

"So why not go into town I'm sure you'd find people there willing to try."

"Yeah I thought of that too. But Dr. Solomon wont let me." Yugi said.

"But I've seen you at work, you're good." Ryo said.

"Thanks but I don't really think I'm that good." Yugi said.

"I'll prove it." Ryo said. "Mokuba come over here."

Mokuba walked back over to Ryo. "D-did I d-do something wrong big brother?"

"I thought he was the king and Master Atemu's brother." Yugi asked.

"He is but we were friends a month or so before he met the king and now he's gotten it in his head that I should be his brother too. I don't mind, I've always wanted a little brother." Ryo said. "No little one, you didn't do anything wrong. Yugi you said you wanted someone to test on. Why not try him?"

"No, I couldn't the salve would do a much better job than I could." Yugi said.

"I meant his hands. See, he has calluses on his hands. Well what we've not told Seto or Master Atemu and you can't tell it's not important for them to know. But in his former home, they used to sometimes hit him with a switch on his hands. I saw them do it once. You can't really see much of the red marks for the calluses. I doubt they ever noticed. Why not try to heal just his hands. Then you'll know if you have what it takes."

"Well I'm not sure."

"Look you wanted someone to test this is your chance."

Yugi looked at Mokuba. "Is it alright with you if I try Mokuba?"

"W-will it hurt?" Mokuba asked.

"No little one it won't hurt at all."

"Okay, y-you can d-do it."

Yugi got up and hunted for the correct spell. Then got a cloth and wet it. Then he laid it across Mokuba's hands.

"Now close your eyes. I need you to believe in me, believe I can do it. If you believe I can do it then I'll try."

"Okay." Mokuba said.

Yugi started chanting and soon Mokuba's hands began to glow.

Meanwhile Yami decided to tell Seto the bad news.

"Seto you're not going to like this." Yami said.

"I know I'm not when you talk like that."

"It seems the advisors have rescheduled royal court to Monday."

"What? I thought that was later in the week."

"It was, now it's Monday and Tuesday. All knighting ceremonies have to be delayed to next week cause after that we still have paperwork and new treaties to look over and send out. I don't know how long that will take though. We're just about through the paperwork but you know the treaties sometimes take a long time to complete."

"Yeah and we have to finish it all by Friday to celebrate Mokuba's birthday."

"Don't worry Seto, unless we end up with another unexpected visitor we'll make time to spend at least his birthday with him if not the whole weekend."

"Yeah, maybe you should ask Yugi if he could cast a spell to keep unwanted visitors at bay."

"But Seto, according to you that would be everyone who doesn't work at the castle and is going to disturb you."

"Is there a point?"

"You know we can't do that!"

"Yeah but I'd be nice if we could though."
