Kyo watched as the show began, amazed out how the puppets moved so gracefully. There were barely any mistakes, if there are any, in the acts. The puppet masters were most likely experts, and the whole show must have been rehearsed so many times.

Gikishou smiled at how much Kyo was enjoying it. At the end,the puppeteers showed themselves and showed the puppets to explain how exactly they did the trademark actions with them.

Kyo listened intently at the puppeteers' explanations. It wasn't that he was planning to start a career as a puppeteer. Actually, he just wanted to see how they were able to make the puppets move as they had during the show. Everything seemed pretty simple, but he knew perfectly well that it was all only an illusion.

Gikishou watched in fascination and smiled. "That must take a lot of practice." He murmured, walking out with him when they finished. "So how did you like the show?"

"Yes, I liked it very much," Kyo said while they exited the place. "It was very interesting, and I liked the story and how the puppets moved. I wonder how long it took for the puppeteers to reach that level."

Gikishou grinned. "Years probably. That's a career you must really, really love to get that good, especially when you risk what they do. It's hard to make it big in puppeteering."

"Yeah, It probably did take a lot of years," Kyo said. "And since movies are becoming a large source of entertainment, puppeteering is a little threatened by that, right?"

Gikishou nodded. "That's why the puppeterium does a lot of advertising and has a museum and puppet store. That way, they can have a larger diversity of entertainment and make enough money. I've actually been in the museum... it's pretty awesome."

"I don't think I've seen any of their advertisements," Kyo said. "I guess I'm never there when they appear." It pretty much seemed that way. Out of all the advertisements he had seen, he didn't remember seeing one about the puppeterium.

Gikishou grinned at that. There was a billboard in front of them as they stopped at a red light, giving information about the puppeterium as well as what number to call for reservations and such for birthdays and other special events.

Kyo then noticed the billboard. "Oh, there's one," he said, pointing to it. "I guess the reason why I never see them is because I never really looked for them."

"It's a good thing, then," Kyo said, still looking at the billboard. "That way the art of puppetry would still live."

Gikishou nodded. "In the end, if everyone who goes someplace loves it, it will stay."

"Then I hope the puppeterium stays forever," Kyo said with a smile. "I kinda like it better than the movie theater."
