You got the letter in the mail, inviting you to come participate in a new tournament hosted by Kaibacorp. You had already been in a tournament, but hadn't proceeded far. You had only moved to Domino City a year ago, but yet knew the game played around the city and in the tournaments practically perfectly. It was a duel monsters tournament. You had played duel monsters almost your whole life. Sometimes, your cards sometimes felt like the only friends you had. Your only family was your mom, who was out most of the time. Your dad and brother had stayed behind when you moved. You had no friends here in Domino City, nor anybody to talk to. You felt alone. But that didn't mean you didn't like it. You actually preferred to be alone. You could just concentrate on yourself; take care of yourself.
You took the letter in the envelope and checked off that you would be in the tournament. It would be held in a couple days. You then closed up the envelope and walking outside in the cool morning to the mailbox to mail it. Nobody was out this early in the morning. You lived in an apartment complex. The others who lived there were typically friendly if you were to them too. Then you walked back inside the apartment.
Walking back to the bedroom, you went to go find your dueling deck. You always kept your deck in a special place for whenever you needed it. You walked over to the dresser and took off the small box on top. You opened it and took out the card holder that held your cards in it too. You took out your deck and walked over to your bed. Relaxing just laying down, you sorted through it. Your two favorite monsters were on top. They were (fav. monster 1) and (fav. monster 2). You played them as a team that could overcome any challenge. In a way, they both reminded you of you and your brother. You smiled as you went through the rest of your deck. Your two favorite spell cards were next. One was (fav. spell 1), and the other was (fav. spell 2). They had both helped you through situations; (fav. spell 1 and effect), while (fav. spell 2 and effect). Next, was your two favorite trap cards; (fav. trap 1) and (fav. trap 2). (Fav. trap 1 and effect), while (fav. trap 2 and effect). With these 6 cards, plus others, you had made a very strong deck. You wanted to win this new tournament, even if it didn't show on the outside.
