After the slide, they rode several more till lunch. Seto was still fuming about what they'd learned. After lunch, they came upon a puppet show. Yami felt this would be the perfect time to talk to Seto.

"Mokuba, Maura, why don't you guys go watch the show."

"But that's for little kids!" Maura complained.

"Mokuba, do you want to watch it or move on."

"I'd l-like to watch it." Mokuba said. It did kind of look like something little kids would enjoy but these weren't all sock puppets. A few had strings hanging down and a few had sticks. It looked interesting. It was something new and he wanted to see what it was about.

"Maura?" Yami questioned.

"Fine." Maura said. Taking the hint that they wanted them out of the way, she grabbed Mokuba's hand and dragged him over to the show and took a seat in the back. She wasn't sure if Mokuba wanted to see the show because he wanted to or because he caught on that they wanted them out of the way. Either way she wasn't crazy about it. She'd seen shows like this before. They always bore her. When she was younger, her father, thinking she'd enjoy this, would often invite other royal children to a special party. They would have cake, ice cream and a puppet show. But that was about the extent of it. Often the snobbier ones would comment and criticize the show, puppets, puppeteers or just about anything else that crossed their mind.

"All right Seto, the kids are gone now. So what is it that's bothering you?"

Seto blinked. "You got rid of the kids to ask me that? There's nothing wrong."

"Seto I know you. Something's been eating at you since we met up with Mcentee. Now what is it?"

"Can I help it if I'm upset!"

"Seto…"

"No, tomorrow I want to have Johnson brought to me!"

"Forget it."

"What?"

"I'm not going to let you kill him, Seto!"

"What makes you so sure I'd kill him?" Seto said calmly.

It was a little too calm in Yami's opinion. "Because I know you! You're not going to get over this so easily. You're just upset that Johnson prevented us from finding Mokuba sooner."

Seto sighed. "Too bad there's not a way to turn back time. Knowing then what we know about the big five."

Yami got an idea on that but decided to keep it to himself for now.

"What are you thinking?"

"How did you know I was thinking anything?"

"I know you."

"Fine, I was thinking I could ask Master Dartz and see if I have the power. But I don't know if it's a good idea Seto."

"You don't think giving the kid a true chance to be normal isn't worth it?"

"I suppose you're right. I'll talk to him tomorrow about it. But I won't allow you to kill Johnson. No matter what we both would like. I can't let you."

"I don't see why not."

"Seto, it just wouldn't look good for the king himself to go around killing people."

At that Seto smiled.

"No!"

Seto looked at him confused.

As Yami looked around, he realized he'd said that too loud. So, in a lower voice he said, "No, Seto. I will not allow you to hire someone to kill him!"

"You said I couldn't do it myself. The big five have hired people to kill Mokuba. They didn't start getting their little hands dirty when it came to that till their hired killers failed. Why can't I do the same?"

"Seto it wouldn't look right."

Seto growled. "No one would have to know! Obviously hired killers don't care who you are as long as you pay them. They have to know by now that Mokuba is the prince and Maura is a princess. Even if they don't, they know they're connected to the king. But since they're still trying, they don't seem to care."

"That's beside the point, Seto! You can't do it! More importantly I won't let you do it!"

"Fine, have it your way. Can't you at least throw him in an active volcano or something?"

"Seto…"

Seto just sighed.

After the show, Mokuba and Maura turned around to see Seto and Yami arguing.

"Don't you worry that they'll break up and one will leave?" Maura asked.

"S-sometimes. B-but I have learned that w-when they stop arguing is when you have to w-worry."

"Why is that?"

"D-don't know. F-for some reason arguing s-seems to be n-normal."

"How can arguing be considered normal?"

"N-not sure. B-but for them it's w-when they stop arguing and stop t-talking to each other is when you r-really worry."
