It certainly wouldn't have gone over well, despite having essentially adopted a charge of his own recently, though not formerly. The timing had just lined up too precisely for him to have turned down the role. He happened to be passing by one of the temples when a priest happened have been looking for a tour guide for a new, youthful arrival, and Kaiba had just happened to have been feeling guilt over not having seen his own brother in a year when he realized he was going to miss Mokuba's birthday.]

Like it or not he was likely on someone's most wanted list and he needed to get off this world.] We'll have to be careful not to be spotted, and it might be better if we split up. Can you provide the coordinates? [Then they could meet up there, but prevent being seen together]
