Ana stared up at the large glass entrance with bold red letters announcing "Kaiba Land" to anyone with in a 100-foot radius. What are we doing here? She glanced up at Seto, who casually strode up to the ticket gate and bought them tickets. The ticket merchants didn't seem to recognize him. Well, he does look a lot more normal in casual clothes. He should wear jeans more often. They really make his ass look good. Ana blushed when the thought crossed her mind. She quickly adverted her gaze when Seto walked back over to her.

"Let's go." He held up the tickets and led the way into the park.

This is work, right? But why would he need to buy tickets to his own park? Oh, maybe this is a secret inspection? Ana held open her bag at the security check. The guard barely glanced into her bag and waved her on in. Wait? That's it? Dude, take your job more seriously. The owner is standing right there! Seto however didn't seem the least bit interested in the guard. Ana hurried on in and they walked into the park. She looked around at the gift shops that lined the entrance. They were all dual monster themed.

"Um, Kaiba—"

He interrupted her. "It's probably best that you don't call me that here."

Ah, true. It might attract attention and ruin the inspection.

"Then, Amin-chan." She corrected herself, but for some reason he seemed less happy about that. "What are we doing here?"

"Good question. Where do you want to go first?" He pointed to the large directory map.

"What? You're leaving it up to me?" She raised an eyebrow at him.

He looked down at her, and his brow furrowed. "Well, I could pick, but I can't guarantee you'll like any of the attractions I pick."

"But shouldn't you be doing this a little more methodically?" Ana frowned at him.

Seto looked confused, and a little appalled at her question. "I mean, I plan out lots of things in advance, but theme park visits are fun because you can ride what you want when you want. So, why plan it?"

"But for an inspection, shouldn't you take this a little more seriously?" Ana sighed at how strangely carefree he was being today.

"Eh? Inspection? Since when did I say this was an inspection?"

Ana blinked a few times before shaking her head. "You said you needed my help with something. I assume it has something to do with me accompanying you. Since we're at a theme park, I assumed it was for an inspection. Isn't the reason I'm accompanying you because it would look strange for you to wander around the park alone. Am I wrong?"

Though I'm just guessing. This seems like a pretty simple task in exchange for saving my life.

Seto half frowned and scratched his head while looking at the directory. "It would seem odd if I was walking around alone, wouldn't it? You can just treat it like how you would if you went to any theme park though and pick where you want to go."

That's not very methodical, but maybe that's the point? If he planned it out, then the employees might predict his path. Maybe he brought me along to pick for him because of that? Just one problem.... Ana eyed the directory and frowned.

"What's wrong?" He asked her when she remained quiet for too long.

"I... haven't ever been to a theme park. Other than a small mall carnival and it only had a Ferris wheel. I don't really know where to start." She admitted as she scanned the attractions.
