Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh!
Hello everyone! I've had this story done for over a year, but never had the time to go over and revise it. With my main stories and requests that I'm working on, I kind of had to back burner my Yu-Gi-Oh! stories for a while, but starting to get back to them. Again, these are my wild card factors. Also, I decided to add an extra story, so now it will be 26 short stories.
To those who have not read these stories please go in the following order:
1. Meet the New Girls
2. Fighting for You
3. Sleep Over Fun
4. Date Night
5. Photoshoots and Drama
6. Tender Moments
This is basically the guy version of 'Photoshoots and Drama' and of course there will be a follow up similar to that of 'Tender Moments' for the guys.

Seto sat at the meeting looking over the guidelines for the new innovation of gaming. Pegasus was trying to find a way to make the games Dungeon Dice Monsters and Duel Monsters even more mobile than Kaiba's duel disk. They had formulated some ideas – vehicles, bikes, levitation devices, and so on – and were already thinking of a few people in such industry that could do the job.
"Now boys, I trust that you will be able to get this task done so that we may present the ideas at the next convention." Pegasus says. The next convention was in two months, and since it was mid-November, they didn't have too long.
"We know a few people." Seto says.
"Oh really, who?" Pegasus says.
"Our mechanic friends, Marik, Bakura and Tristan. The buzz around Domino is that they can build anything from the ground up as long as they're given the parts and the dates. They mainly specialize in motorcycles, but they're adaptable." Duke says.
"Good to hear, I hope you'll get right on it boys." Pegasus says, dismissing them. The two men went to their respective cars and drove back to Kaiba Corp, since it had the best tech design team.
"Shouldn't we at least ask Marik, Bakura, and Tristan?" Duke says as they got out of their cars, only to see Seto on the phone.
"Marik, this could be some major cash for your business. Think about it, if you build these devices for me and Duke, your name, along with the other two, will be on the map of Domino even more so than you already are. You'll get higher grade technology and the cash to expand your shop like you guys keep griping about. Not to mention, you'll have access to my technical equipment." Seto says as they walk into the building.
"Good, I knew you'd see reason. Be here tomorrow at noon. Bye." Seto says.
"Well, that answered my question." Duke says.
"Wheeler!" Seto calls. Joey came running around the corner and stops on a dime.
"Yes Mister Kaiba." Joey says.
"I'll need you to up your security team at the technology wing." Seto says.
"Can do." Joey says before walking off, talking into his walkie-talkie, barking orders. Yugi walks down.
"I can only assume a major project is about to be under way." Yugi says.
"Correct." Seto says before Duke got into detail. Yugi let out a low whistle.
"Two months to create at least several different designs of easy operational mobile dueling devices. That's a mouthful. Anyway, I take it you guys are going to the draft room." Yugi says.
"Yes, and since you and Mokuba are my two second in command men, you'll be overseeing your part of things and Mokuba will be overseeing the other side of things. If something comes up, let me know, and it'd better be important." Seto says.
"Like the incident with Dartz important?" Yugi snickers.
"Yes, that would be bad." Seto snaps.
"Got it." Yugi says before going and letting Mokuba know.
"Oh boy, my brother is not going to be the nicest of people until the project is done." Mokuba sighs.
"No, but let's hope all our friends will still want to associate with him after this." Yugi says.
"You may have to help with that." Mokuba says.
"I can do that." Yugi replies with a smile.

Marik was overseeing the drafts that had been sent, checking and making sure he knew what was what and then providing a more refined draft of what had been sent. And so far, things were going smoothly. It was his lunch break when he got a call from Seto.
"Yes, I go the two drafts you sent to me done and they are on their way back." Marik says answering the phone. It was silent for a moment.
"There were supposed to be three." Seto says. Marik scowls and looks in the envelope.
"There's only two. The one for the bike looking one and the one for the go-cart looking one." Marik says.
"There was supposed to be a hover disc." Seto says.
"I'm only looking at the duel runner and duel derby, no hover disc." Marik says.
"Did you double check?" Seto asks.
"Yes." Marik replies.
"Did it fall when you opened the envelope?" Seto asks. Marik looks around the entire room and still no extra draft.
"Just did, was nowhere to be seen." Marik replies.
"Are you sure?" Seto asks.
"Yes, I'm sure. Are you sure you even sent it?" Marik asks, trying to remain calm. Seto was his friend, but sometimes he could be a royal pain in the ass.
"I was sure Duke sent them, and when I left the office to take a call I saw him put the drafts in." Seto says.
"It's not here, so it has to be there or it somehow vanished in the mail." Marik says. Seto scowls before he hangs up the phone and throws it on the desk. Time was of the essence, and he didn't have the time, or patience, for a draft to be lost or to have mysteriously vanished.
Alright, stay tuned.
