Basically I got the idea for this story when I saw a picture of Yugi and Gandora and then I saw the episode where Yugi and Yami Bakura duel and then this idea came into place. And I would like to say a big thanks to InsaneEvilLittleEmmy for helping me with names and helping me come up with ideas for this story. So without further ado I give you Encantarte (en-con-tart-ay)


"He's riding a Millennium! Kill him!"

A bullet flies dangerously close to my face and then blows up in midair which makes Gandora, my dragon, jolt under me. The strange red orbs that went along certain parts of his body glow brighter as the threat's behind us start to bring out more of their weapons.

My eyes widen in panic while my frozen fingers try to keep a tight grip on the dark navy scales that are underneath me. I could tell Gandora was having a hard time lifting his wings in the cold air that continually pushed towards us. It didn't help that we were being chased by the Leviathan. The Leviathan were a group of people that lived to the opposite of where my own village is located. We have been enemies with them for years and all because our dragons are much different than there's. The dragons in my village are known as the Millennium Dragons. Each Millennium is a complete original looking dragon. They are individual and that's one of the reasons why the Leviathan and their dragons hate us so much. They are jealous that we have dragons that have unique powers and are different in appearance, while their dragons look not as threatening and only breathe fire.

It's sad, really, to think that a war is probably brewing just because of dark emotions that people have let take over the common sense in their minds. After all it's not our fault that when we were born our dragon was created with us. Every dragon was meant to fit the personality of their human. The people who were a little more unique recieved a little more unique dragons and that was all there was to it.

I scream as something small, yet painful, slices right through the bottom of my right ear, making it tear and bleed. The pain is excruciating and gives me the sudden urge to roll into a ball and beg that the pain go away. The bullet has made everything muffled now and it's hard for me to concentrate with the squealing of that shot still ringing in my head.

I'm not prepared when another bullet tears right through my forearm. I can only hope none of the nerves are damaged as my grip on Gandora loosens and I can no longer tell which way is up and which way is down before I'm sliding off of the dark scales and into the frigid air. I'm in too much pain to scream as I continue to falls towards the unforgivingly hard ground. All I can think about is that my dragon could be captured by the enemy and I'm going to die.

My heart is either in my stomach or pounding mercilessly against my chest, but my mind is so frozen with fear and shock that I barely notice. It seems to hard to believe that I'm even falling to my death right now. But in some part of my mind I realize I never got to say goodbye to anyone. Not even Gandora. I never got to tell that one person that I might have a crush on them and that I know they have a crush on me. I need to tell my friends so many things...

I can't even keep my eyes open from the incredible speed I'm falling at. I wish there was no time to even be thinking. If I'm going to die I want it to be quick. There should be no time to think about the scary and unfairness of the whole situation. The only thing left to do is wish.

When large wings encircle around me, I know my wish has been answered.


I can't help but worry. When the Chief ordered that he would be the one to deliver the message to a town near the enemies land, I worried. And now it's been two days and he still isn't back yet, when he should have returned the night he had been sent out. His dragon is fast and could easily make the trip which is why everyone is starting to doubt he'll return.

I tried looking for him in the skies by riding my own dragon, but there was no luck. He has just disappeared. His absence has made all of our friends on edge. None of us have been able to sleep well and were all too lost in thought to eat.

My own mind keeps going back to the moment right before he left. We were talking…

*Flashback*

I watched as he went back and forth from the pile of flying supplies to his dragon. He was talking about an upcoming rider and dragon tournament that everyone looked forward to, but I was more focused on him than his words.

"I'm going to enter in the sky agility course. What about you? Hey! Are you even listening to me?" he pouts as he crosses his arms and stands in front of me.

"Yeah…" I mumble. "I'm listening. I was just thinking about your trip."

He raises one of his perfect eyebrows and shuffles around in his back pocket before pulling out a very tightly sealed envelope.

"You mean delivering this letter?" he looks it over for a few seconds before sliding it back into his pocket.

I give him a nod and he rolls his eyes and then goes over to a box and takes something off the top of it. I think it's probably a type of gun before I realize it's just his favorite, worn, pair of fingerless gloves that he always wears when flying. He slips them on over his alabaster colored hands and buttons the straps.

"Are you sure you want to go alone?" I cautiously ask, knowing how he hates being babied because he's a tad smaller than the rest of us.

He gives me a tiny glare and sighs. "Yes, it's not that big of a deal. I fly there, drop off the letter, and fly back. I'll be right here by the afternoon. If it makes you feel any better I promise I'll be back." he waves off any of the concern I have for him and leans against his dragon who nudges him in return.

He gives me his most well known sweet smile which makes my stomach flip and my head a little dizzy. My cheeks are probably a little flushed, but he either doesn't notice or just ignores it.

"Just…be careful, ok?" I end up mumbling when he continues to watch me.

"Careful is as careful does." he says before climbing onto his dragon who is watching us in amusement.

"That doesn't make any sense." I grin when he laughs. It always makes me happy and proud of myself when I can get him to laugh in that addictive way.

"I know," he pats the scales underneath him which is a signal for his dragon to get ready to take off. "I just like confusing people sometimes." He shrugs carelessly and lets out a sharp whistle which is what he always does to get his dragon off the ground.

He gives me a soldiers salute and I just smile as his dragon flaps his large wings and takes them both far away from me.

*End Flashback*

The echoing sound of loud footsteps running against the tiled floor catches my attention and brings me out of my daze. Confusion settles in as one of my best friends grabs my arm and yanks me off the chair Im sitting in. He has an overly happy expression on his face as he drags me towards the door.

"Jou what are you doing?" I asked as I rip my arm from his grasp in frusteration at being pulled like a child.

He turns his honey brown eyes onto me and quickly flicks his long blonde hair to the side.

"Yami, they found him! They found Yugi!"

Relief flows through me like a waterfall. Finally, I feel like I can breathe again.

"Where? Let's go see him, is he ok?" I questioned as we both run out the door and sprint towards our dragons who are sleeping in the afternoon sun.

"I saw them take him off of Suzuki's dragon," Jou pauses to try and tell me that he's trying not to upset me with what he's going to say, "He was unconscious and his clothes were stained in blood…"

I close my eyes and let my nerves burn in anxiety as I try to process this information through my mind. Shock is definitley a good word to describe my emotions.

With a whole new set of worry I climb on my dragon, Slifer's, back. He throws his long body up and dazedly looks back at me. He snorts in an irritated fashion. I ignore it and tell him where to go and we take off into the air within seconds. My only thoughts being: 'Yugi.'


A/N- If anyone is confused then let me sum this up for you- The first part of the chapter is in Yugi's point of view. His dragon is Gandora the Dragon of Destruction which is a real Duel Monster from Yugioh. The second part of the chapter is in Yami's point of view. In the flashback it's Yami who is watching Yugi get on the dragon for his trip and then fly away with the letter. And Yami's dragon is Slifer the Sky Dragon which is named Slifer. You caught up with me so far? Ok so in this story there are normal dragons and Millennium dragons. The normal dragons are like the normal ones you imagine. You know, the one from Eragon. And then the Millennium dragons are the Duel Monster dragons from Yugioh. The people who own normal dragons are jealous of the Millennium dragons and also think it's unfair for people to own Millennium dragons so they want to make Millennium's extinct. Ok and I tried really hard to stay in present tense, but it's hard for me to write so I'm sorry if at some time I accidentally mix my present and past tenses. Thanks for reading!
