You could hear the whisper of the wind anywhere you stood. You could hear a drop of rain anywhere you sat. And you could hear the breathing of the people that laid unconscious of the concrete floor.
The bodies of young men and woman laid on the floor, some faced up, others faced down. Each laid close to certain people. It look like there were four groups. One group had a young-looking boy, two older boys and a girl. Another group had 6 teen-aged boys and 2 teen-aged girls and a crocodile. The next group had 3 young adult looking boys, a young adult looking girl and two young kids. The last group had 5 teen-looking boys and 3 teen-looking girls.
Slowly, one of the boys from the first group started to moan. He was laying face down. He slowly started to lift his head up to look at his surroundings. He looked to his left and saw a bodies lying next to him. "Joey," he moaned. Then he saw the other 2 bodies lying near to him, "Tristan, Tea," When he turned his head away from his friends he saw the other bodies lying on the ground. He gasped at the site he was seeing, wondering if any of them bodies were dead. He then saw a certain body lying near to a yard away from him. "It can't be."
As if on the queue, the body started to move. He too was lying face down on the ground. He looked to his right to see a female body lying next to him, "Akiza?" He slowly moved his arm to her arm a gave her a little nudge, but it did nothing. He quickly got a look at his surroundings, see he they were not the only people there. He then saw that there was another person awake. He looked closer and saw who he was looking at. "No way...Yugi?" He called out.
"Yusei!" Yugi yelled as he started to stand up.
"Yugi!" Yusei too started to stand up. They made there way over to each other. "Yugi, what are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same thing, but where is here?" Yugi said as he looked up and around. "Hey, if your here and I'm her then does that mean Jaden's here to?"
"I don't know," Yusei sighed as he looked around to the other groups. He then noticed someone from another group was starting to wake up. He was lying on his side with his arm covering his head and face. As he moved, you could quickly see his teal hair stand out. Yugi and Yusei made their way over to him. "Hey are you okay?"
The guy slowly moved his head and opened his eyes and looked at the two people standing in front of him. "Wh-who are you? What's going on?" He said as he tried to sit up but quickly stopped as his back started to hurt.
"Hey, take it easy," Yusei said as he put his hands on his shoulders.
"Is it just me or does he look a bit like Jaden?" Yugi said to Yusei not taking his eyes of the boy. Yusei looked at the teal-haired boy and saw Yugi was sort of right.
"Hey, by any chance you wouldn't happen to know someone called Jaden would you?" Yusei asked the boy.
"What? Jaden? Is he here?" The boy said in one breath, quickly looking around.
"We don't know, we've only just woken up ourselves. By the way, what's your name?" Yugi asked the boy.
"I'm Jesse, and you are?" Jesse said looking at the two people in front of him.
"I'm Yugi Moto.
"And I'm Yusei Fudo."
Jesse looked at Yugi in shock for a second but quickly shook it of, "What how- never mind, I need to wake everyone up and find Jay." Jesse said as he stood up. Yusei and Yugi helped him up and decided to do the same with everyone else. Yugi went over to Joey and Tristan and gave them a couple on nudges on the arms.
"Come on guys, rise and shine." Joey and Tristan slowly opened their eyes and looked at Yugi, "Yugi?"
"Last time I remembered." Yugi said with a small chuckle. The slowly sat up and looked around. Yugi then walks over to Tea to try and wake her up.
"What going on? Where are we?" Tristan said as he and Joey looked around. When they looked to their right they then saw a crocodile looking at them.
"CROCODILE!" They both shouted as the quickly grabbed hold of the first thing they could find, which was each other.
"Oh don't worry lads, Shirley is harmless." Joey and Tristan look over to see a men with a cowboy had on and a bandage around his right eye. "The worse thing she'll do is rip you to pieces." This made Joey and Tristan hug each other more.
"What?! Ripped to pieces?!" Yelled a new voice. Everyone looked over to the other group to see a boy in his teens with a key-like necklace around his neck. "I don't wanna get ripped to pieces. I still have a long life ahead of me!"
"Calm down mate." the man said to the new stranger, "I did say she would rip you to pieces, but that's only if you pose as a threat. I did also say she's harmless. Just ask my mates here." he said pointing to the people by him, who were now too starting to wake up. "What's your name anyway mate?"
"Who me? I'm Yuma. Yuma Tsukumo." Yuma said to the man as he made his way over to him.
"Nice to meet ya. The names Jim Crocodile Cook." Jim said tipping his hat to Yuma.
"Nice to meet you too. By any chance do you know where we all are?" Yuma asked as he looked around.
"That's what I want to know." Yuma and Jim looked in the direction Yuma came from to see a girl with green hair standing up looking at them.
"Tori!" Yuma yelled as he made his way over to her. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah but my head kinda hurts." Tori as she rubbed the back of her head.
"You not the only one don't worry," Yugi said as he walked over to them. Yuma and Tori look at Yugi with a shocked face.
"Wait a second, are you Yugi Moto?! The King Of Games?!" Yuma yelled pointing.
"Well yes I am. You heard of me?" Yugi said as he scratched the back of his neck.
"Your were a dueling legend, well that's what it says in our history books." Tori explained to Yugi.
"History books? Oh wait a second, are you guys from the future?" Yugi asked them.
"You could say that I guess," Yuma said crossing his arms across his chest.
"So are you guys friend with Yusei Fudo? Or even Jaden Yuki?" Yugi asked?
"Wait a second Yusei Fudo and Jaden Yuki are here too?" Tori yelled in shock.
"Well Yusei is but we can't find Jaden," Yugi said as he looked around the room.
"Oh Yuma what's going on?" One of the boys from behind Yuma sat up from lying on his back and looked at Yuma. He was a baseball cap backwards. When he saw who was next to Yuma and Tori his face went for tired to shock, "Huh?! Wait a sec, that guy is-?"
"Yes we know Bronk! And there is also Yusei Fudo and Jaden Yuki here as well so keep your pants on before you get too excited!" Tori yelled at Bronk. "Yuma help me wake the others up." Yuma nodded and the three started to wake up everyone else.
Yugi walked away from the group and went back over to his friends to see all of them now sitting up awake. "Good you guys are okay. Yusei how are your friends?!" Yugi yelled over to Yusei.
"There all good, just confused as we all are." Yusei yelled as he was kneeling next to two kids that were sitting up looking a bit scared.
Yugi nodded and looked over to Jesse who was helping a boy with glasses stand up. "How about you Jesse?"
"They're all good. Just wondering what is going on." Jesse called over to Yugi. Soon after everyone was awake they all walked over to each other so they were closer and didn't have to yell. "Okay seriously, I am really starting to worry now. Where they hell is Jaden?"
"Maybe he wasn't transported over here with us." Said a boy with the glass, that goes by the name of Syrus.
"May you right, but I can't shake of a feeling that something is-" Jesse started to say but was cut of by a yell.
"HEY!" Everyone turned around to see a girl with a bow and arrow pointing towards them. She had brown hair, which was put up on a pony tail,and was wearing dark blue jeans and a dark purple t-shirt with a black leather jacket over the top. She was also carrying a black shoulder bag over her right shoulder. Everyone froze in shock. "Who are you?!" The girl demanded.
"Who are we? Who are you?!" One of Yusei's friends yelled to the girl.
"I'm the one who asks the questions here!" The girls yelled back.
"I wouldn't yell at her like that Jake." A orange haired guy said to Jack.
"Zip it Crow." Jack snapped at Crow.
"You two enough." Yusei said to the pair looking over his shoulder at them. Yusei then looked back a the girl, who still had he arrow aimed at them. "Listen," Yusei said as he took at step forward, but the girl pointed her arrow at him, "we don't know where we are, or how we got here we just want to leave." Yusei said calmly.
"How do I know your telling the truth?" The girl said to him, with a bit of anger in her voice.
"How can we prove to you that we are telling the truth?" Yusei asked calmly.
The girl was about to answer when she was cut of but a friend of Jesse's with long blue hair, "Okay look we don't have time for this. One of our friends are missing and we need to fin-" She was cut of with the girl pointing her arrow to her now and moving forward.
"You better watch your mouth. I'm the one with the weapon here." She said threateningly to him. Jesse quickly put his hands up, like he was being arrested. The girl continued to point her arrow towards him. Everyone stood still not knowing what to say or do. Yusei slowly stepped forward with his hands up, almost like he was approaching a wild animal. The girl changed her position of the arrow, so now he was her target.
"How can we prove we're not a threat?" He said calmly. The girl looked at him with determined eyes before giving him her answer.
"What was the last thing you remember?" She said almost calmly.
"Bright lights, and pain." Yusei said, his eyes looking down showing he was thinking.
"Pain where?" The girl said, her arrow still pointing.
"My head." Yusei said looking at the girl. She looked at everyone else.
"Is this the same with everyone here?" She asked looking at everyone. Some nodded calmly while others nodded incredibly fast, showing they were nerves. The girl slowly lowered her weapon but not completely, she doesn't yet trust them completely.
"You said someone is missing before, am I right?" The girl said with a confused voice.
"Yeah he his." Jesse answered.
"You know him?"
"We all do, my friends and these two." Jesse said pointing to his friends and Yugi and Yusei.
"When did he go missing? Was he with any of you before you all came here?"
Jesse thought back to the moment before he woke up here. "Urr yeah I think he was."
"Does he have any abilities? Anything special about him?" The girl asked Jesse.
"Well he can see duel monster spirits." Jesse said to the girl. She looked at him in shock.
"And you? Can all of you see duel monster spirits?" The girl asked everyone.
"I can." Jesse said.
"Me too." Jesse's friend Chazz said.
"And you guys?" The girl turned to Yugi's group.
"Well er..." Yugi began to say, trying to find the words.
"Yugi you sure that's a good idea?" Joey whispered.
"Yeah man, how do we know we can trust her?" Tristan said his him in a whisper.
"Well she did lower her weapon." Tea said to them. Yugi looked down and then back up to the girl.
"Well, for about three years I was connected to a spirit that was joined to me through my old Egyptian millennium puzzle." This made the girl even more shocked.
"Hey that's the same with me!" Yuma yelled. Everyone turned to him. "Except it was through this golden key, and it was this person for another world called 'Astral World'" This shocked to girl even more. She then turned to the final group.
"And what about you guys?"
"We used to be these really cool group call people called 'The Signers'. And we would be going round protecting the world. And we were all bonded together through this mark we had on our arms, put there by the Crimson Drago-" Before the young boy could finish, the girl standing next to him, who looked like to be his sister, stepped on his foot. "OW! What was that for Luna?!"
"To much information Leo! Sorry about my brother." Luna said to the girl. The girl shock her head and smiled.
"Don't worry about it." Her smile soon faded, "But I think I now know why you were all brought here."
"You do?" Crow said.
The girl nodded her head. "But I can not explain here. Come with me, I'll take you somewhere safe." Everyone looked at each other, but soon followed the girl, who had already started to walk of. As they were about to walk around the corner everyone heard a noise. A moan, in pain.
"I know that noise." A blond haired girl, Alexis said in a shocked voice. Jesse looked at her and quick ran on ahead around the corner. Everyone followed and soon came to find a shocking scene. A body was lying in the middle of the road. A male, with dark brown hair with light brown highlights. "Jaden!" Alexis shouted before running over to him. Jesse beat her to it though.
Jesse turned Jaden over so he was on his back. Alexis put his head on her lap to support him. Jesse kept on trying to get Jaden to respond to his words but all that were coming out were moans. Jesse the moved Jaden's right hand, which was covering his left side. What he said next shocked everyone in the area. "He's bleeding!"
