Chapter 1: Two Duellists
It was a bright sunny day in the city of Domino. Not a grey cloud in the sky to spoil the view. The people were all having a good time………well except for one person.
"Hey! KAIBA! I'm not leaving 'til you duel ME!" yelled Joey Wheeler for the forty-something or other time. "I'm serious! I mean it! I'm not leaving!"
How long can he keep this up for? Thought Seto Kaiba, signing his name on yet another project request. He's been yelling outside my office for the past hour. Damn! Why did I give security the week off? The second I did, this idiot turned up and won't go away!
Seto Kaiba, the CEO of Kaiba corporation had been enjoying his day by going over some legal forms for the company, when the worst thing possible for him, arrived outside of his office. The moment he gave permission for his staff to have a week's vacation, Joey Wheeler appeared with the intention to duel him.
It had only been a year since the Pharaoh had passed on to the afterlife and everyone had gotten on with their lives………except for Joey. He became more and more obsessed with dueling Seto as the months passed by. He had tried everything to get into the building, but the security had always managed to keep him out.
Until now……
"HEY! I know you're in there Kaiba! Get out here and duel me already!" Joey yelled again.
I can't concentrate on my work with him carrying on like this! I'm going to have to give in. He cringed at the thought. "Fine, Wheeler! I'll duel you if you swear to get out once it's over, ok?"
He rose from his chair and walked over to his office door. He opened it slowly, hesitant to go through with it. He was greeted with a grinning idiot.
"Fine with me, 'rich boy'." Replied Joey. Seto's eye twitched at the nickname. "So shall we go downstairs?"
They entered the elevator and Joey pressed the button for the 30th floor. The one with the massive duel arena on it.
"This will be over shortly." Seto taunted Joey.
"You got that right Kaiba! I'm gonna win this time!" Joey flashed his victory grin again.
Five minutes later…
Seto sat down at his desk again after taking out all of Joey's life points in the duel.
Finally, that's over. Thought Seto. Now I can get some peace and…
"Hey, Kaiba!" Joey's voice rang out.
Seto started to clench his fists as he got back up and yanked his office door open. "WHAT? What do you want now?" This loser is really starting to get on my nerves.
"Any idea what these are?" Joey asked, holding up a couple of large glowing egg-shaped stones. "They look like glowing paperweights."
Seto looked at the strange objects closely. "I have no idea what they are, and I don't want to know. Where did you find them?" Seto inquired.
Joey pointed to the floor in between them. "They were just out here, floating in front of the door."
"Floating?" Seto raised his eyebrow. "Give them here. Let me look more closely." He demanded, with his hand out.
Joey seemed reluctant to hand his discovery over, but decided that Seto might know something about them, so he gave him one. Just as he was about to give him the second, the stones started to flash alternating from white to green.
"Hey! Kaiba, what's going on?" Joey asked frantically. He tried to drop the stone. "I can't let go of it!"
"Neither can I," exclaimed Seto, also looking scared. "Why is it that weird things always happen around you or your friends?"
"Hey! It's not like it's my fault that you wanted to see them!" Joey replied. "Besides freaky stuff doesn't always happen around me or my friends!"
The two continued to bicker as a large hole appeared in front of them. It enveloped them in a bright orange light and then disappeared as if nothing happened at all.
