"Are you sure you're not going to lose in the first round?'' teased Kyoko who was Mizore's best friend.
"Don't be an idiot" replied Mizore. "I'm Mizore Kuronuma one of the best duelists, I can't possibly lose".
They were at a Duel Monsters tournament organized by Konami (the company that makes Yu-Gi-Oh cards). The people competing included Yugi, Jonouchi (Joey), Marik, Mai, Seto etc. Mizore wanted to win more than anything because she wanted the glory.
"You know that Seto Kaiba is in this tournament" said Kyoko.
"Yeah I know."
"He's a very strong duelist. You might have to duel him."
I hope I don't have to duel him thought Mizore. It's not that I'm afraid of losing...I don't why but there's something about him. Everytime someone mentions his name, I start blushing...what am I thinking? I don't even know Seto personally, I only read about him in tabloid magazines but-
"Hey, snap out of your fantasy," interrupted Kyoko."Your match is about to start".
"Oh...right...thanks..."muttered Mizore. The computer had randomly selected Seto vs. Mizore for the first match.

After shuffling each other's decks, they each drew five cards. Seto's turn was first.
Crap, I don't think I can't do this thought Mizore. I get really nervous during duels, I seriously need more confidence in my duelling abilities. If I forfeit, everyone will think I'm a weak duelist. That can NOT happen. And besides, what would my fans think? Kyoko may be right. I could lose if I play too recklessly. I have to duel, but if I do I might-
"Are you going to duel or are you going to stand there and do nothing?''demanded Kaiba.
"Sorry..." apologized Mizore. she was lost in her thoughts, so she didn't notice that Kaiba hd already summoned a monster. "I summon Jolt and I play two cards facedown, end of turn."
"My turn,"said Kaiba. "I attack Jolt and it's sent to the graveyard, I play one card facedown; end ot turn."
I'm in trouble thought Mizore. I have two facedown trap cards, but he could easily destroy them and attack me directly. If he doesn't I still need to remove one card from play to used them.
"I...I forfeit,"said Mizore quietly.
The room was silent. Everyone was very shocked. Did Mizore Kuronuma, one of the best duelists ever just surrender to Seto Kaiba, the CEO of KaibaCorp?
I don't care about the crap they're going to write about me in those shitty tabloid magazines thought Mizore. And with that she walked to the washroom. Even Seto couln't believe that such a well-known and powerful duelist would give up so easily. The journalists who were there getting coverage on the tornament immediatly picked up their pens, and started making up false stories to put in the paper.

Author's note: That's it for Chapter 1. Keep reading to find out why Mizore forfeits ^_^
