Cazeh: So as you know, this fanfic is a crossover of Yu-Gi-Oh (after Seto's Duel Tower Tournament, before Egyptian Arc Series), Dragonball (both Z and GT), Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings (after the books). We (me and Shasti) do not own any of the above (obviously) and we are not responsible for any spoilers. Nor are we (though it'll be me who writes them) responsible for the warping of young minds due to any of my yaoi implications.

YGO, HP, LoTR and DBZ/GT cast: -eyes her warily-

Shasti: Yes, well, I would like to say a few words too... Humm... Um... Well... All right, PLEASE READ ME FICS!!! Any questions?

YGO, HP, LoTR and DBZ/GT cast: -sweat drop, shakes head-

Cazeh: Anyway, our chapters will probably be written by one person and read and edited by the other. If you see an abrupt change in writing styles, you'll know that one part was written by me and the other by Shasti. Now enough with the chatter, let's get on with the fic.

A cool breeze shifted the grass beneath their feet and Yami's jacket, with or without wind, flapped behind him as if there were a non-existent storm billowing it to no end. Jou had become a strategist, nearly defeating him in more occasions than one and right then; Yami was in a tight spot.

His life points were down to 200 and he had only two useless cards in his hand. The fact that Jou was sporting the grin he always had on whenever he and Yami duelled didn't help much either; the fact that Jou only had the one monster on the field did.

Seto just had to come every time, didn't he? Well, I suppose he would. It is his 'puppy' who defeats me and even though he doesn't show it, he's damn proud of his Jou.

Yami drew his card, subconsciously whispering to believe in the Heart of the Cards. As soon as he glimpsed the card, he too donned a grin. The surrounding group of friends all knew what that smile stood for and waited for Yami to turn events around.

Well, this time, the pup will learn from a grown hound and his master won't be too pleased...

Yami chuckled silently to himself, scaring his aibou. He then slapped a card onto his Duel Disk. "I summon Dark Magician in attack mode! Dark Magician, attack Jou's Flames Swordsman!" Yami's commanding tone fit well with his superior smile. "You still can't always beat me Jou!"

It was when hologram began moving towards its chosen target that a blinding flash of white light pierced the ground below and they fell into a bottomless pit of doom. As they descended, a cry could be heard, the voice belonging to Jou. "Kaiba! You're stupid hologram thingy finally broke!"

"You'll pay for this moneybags!" Honda added. "My eyes are important you know!" Anzu rapidly tried to cover her eyes. "NO! My eyes! Now how am I going to ever become a great dancer if I'm blind?!"

Shizuka shrieked, "No! Big brother!" She watched her brother with worried eyes. "Are you going to be alright?"

"It's all right sis..." Jou comforted his sister, while attempting to block the vast flash of light that blinded him.

Honda madly tried to grab hold of Shizuka's hand "Don't worry," He whispered in a soft voice. "I'll protect you..." His heroic lines were cut off by a rough hand smashing into his skull, and then came Otogi's blurred voice "What are, you mad? I can protect myself!"

Seto crossed his arms proudly as he muttered, "Immature..." He scowled, and then proceeded to defend his creation. "It's not my hologram projector! More likely that Bakura, Malik or Yami sent us to the Shadow Realm." The three accused replied in unison. "By Ra, if it were us, why are we here with you?"

Their bickering, which the girls found very childish, was soon stopped, due to a rough landing that rattled some sense into them. Looking around, the cast of Yu-Gi-Oh found themselves in a...

Cazeh: Yes, I know, not very long but I promise you, the next chapter will be much longer. How do I know? Because Shasti and I have already written it- enjoy and remember to review! Shasti would say a few words here too, but she told me to put it up on already, so um... I'm sure you'll see more of her in the next chapter. -sweat drops and scurries off-
