Sdrive: Ok Screw it, I'm going to make my Tournament Story. I have been wanting to do this for a long time now. I can't wait any longer. I am going to write it. Even if I have other stories to work on I am going to write this. I will need reviewers and I will also need deck structures. I hope you all enjoy this so here it is.

-------------

It was a beautiful day in Domino City. Sdrive was sitting in school bored out of his mind. It was a very slow day. The Teacher was babbling on about who knows what. It had been pretty rough for Sdrive the past few days. He had Shi to deal with and if that wasn't enough he had this funny feeling, yet he didn't know exactly why. He wasn't sure what it all meant but it was clear to him that sitting around in a school wasn't going to help him figure it out. Finally the bell rang and that could only mean one thing. Lunch. He wasn't excited about going to eat lunch. He was excited because he knew he would be able to go see his friends. He walked over to the Cafeteria and sat down at an empty table. He was sitting there for a while waiting when he got pushed down.

"Hey what's going on?" He asked surprised.

Standing over him was the bully of the school, Jack. " I want you out of hear. This here is the table for good duelists. And you certainly aren't a good duelist." he said.

"Is that so? How about we have a duel. If I win then you have to leave me alone."

"Ha, you don't stand a chance against me."

Just then Yugi Moto and Joey Wheeler came over to the table to see what was going on.

"What's happening over here?" Yugi asked.

"I'm about to take this weakling out." Jack responded.

"Hey fighting isn't good." Joey said

"You moron, I'm gonna beat him in a duel." Jack responded annoyed.

"How about you face me instead?" Yugi asked.

"No, I can take him." Sdrive said.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I am better than everyone thinks." Sdrive responded.

"Then let the Duel begin," Jack said They each set their dueling decks down on the table and drew their 5 cards.

"I think I'll let the bully go first."

"Whatever." Jack looked at his 5 opening cards He drew his next. 'Not a bad hand if I do say so myself.' he thought to himself. "Ok loser, I will place one card under the table and I will place one monster on Guard and then it is your turn you loser.

Sdrive drew his card and looked at his hand 'a good starting hand' Sdrive thought to himself. "I will play La Jinn (1800/1000) in attack mode, and then I will attack your on guard card."

"You loser, I played Cyber Jar (900/900)."

"That's not good."

"I also play my face down card, Crush Card."

"That is really not good."

"Now each monster on the field is destroyed, and we draw 5 new cards. We play any 4 star monsters or lower on the field. Unfortunatly for you, any monsters with over 1500 attack points will automatically be destroyed both on the field and in your hand."

Sdrive drew his 5 new cards (Magical Cylinder, Horn of the Unicorn, Castle of Dark Illusions, Buster Blader, Harpies Feather Duster) He played Castle of Dark Illusion (920/1930) face down and then discarded, Buster Blader, Armored Zombie, and Dark Magician.

"This is not good."

Jack drew his new 5 cards (Ryu Kishin Powered, Cyber Jar, Trap Hole, Harpy's Brother, Trap Hole) He placed Ryu Kishin Powered (1600/1200), and Harpy's Brother (1800/1000) in attack mode and placed Cyber Jar on guard.

"I play one card under the table and end my turn." Sdrive said.

"It's my turn. I will lay 3 cards under the Table and I will place my Battle Ox (1700/1000) in attack mode. And I will end my turn"

"Fine Sdrive drew his card, "I play one monster on guard and I will end my turn."

Jack drew. "I have this game in the bag, I sacrifice my on guard monster, and my Ryu Kishin Powered, to play Barrel Dragon (2600/2200). I will now use it's effect. I will flip this coin 3 times, if I can get 2 heads consecutively I will be able to destroy one of your monsters." Jack flipped the coin (Tails, Heads, Tails) "Whatever I will still attack your On Guard Monster."

"Which activates my Trap Card, Magical Cylinder."

"Damn you."

Sdrive: 4000

Jack: 1400

"So you got lucky, I don't have any thing to worry about."

Sdrive drew his card. "Grr, I have to discard this card because of your stupid trap card."

"hehehe it's to bad you don't have a way to destroy my Crush Card. If only you had a Remove Trap card."

'Wait, that's right. The Crush Card has to stay on the field' I play Harpies Feather Duster!"

"Oh well, I have more than enough power to destroy you."

"We will see what you can do. But first I play Monster Reborn to bring back my Dark Magician (2500/2100). And then I will play my Horn of the Unicorn to increase my Dark Magicians attack and defense by 700 points, (3200/2800). Then I will flip my Witch of the Black forest in attack mode. I will use my Dark Magician to destroy your Battle Ox and take away the last of your life points."

Sdrive: 4000

Jack: 0

"And you called me a loser, you didn't even do any damage to my life points."

"I hate you." And with that Jack stomped away angrily.

"Good Job Stupid Apprentice," Sdrives friend Yamato said. "I guess my Teachings have helped."

"That kid thought he was good and was only dueling for selfish reasons. He didn't trust his deck. Man am I beat." Just then the bell rang. "What, I haven't even eaten lunch."

"Don't care. At least you got your self a victory." Yamato said.

"Yeah that's true."

"Good Job Sdrive," Yugi said.

"Thanks."

The rest of the day went by pretty quickly after that. After School the gang headed over to the Bakura residence because Ryou, and Sdrive both lived there. And it was close to Yamato's house. So it made since to go there. They were heading over there to do some studying "I have to hand it to you Sdrive you did a great job." Tea said.

"Thanks but it wasn't that big of a deal. I just forgot that he had kept the crush card on the field. If he hadn't played that Cyber Jar that Duel might have turned out differently." They went inside while Sdrive got the mail. He found an oddly colored letter and started to stare at it.

"What are you looking at?" Mina asked. Mina had just recently joined the gang. She moved to Domino a while ago and now with a little run in with some bullies she ended up getting saved by Sdrive and Yamato. She owned the Sennen Medallion.

"I was looking at this letter."

"What does it say?"

"Let's find out." Sdrive opened the letter and read it aloud.

"Greetings Duelist. We are sending you this letter to inform you of a special Duel Monsters tournament. The Masters Tournament will be the biggest Tournament that has ever been held. Only the Best Duelist in the world will be allowed to come. You will be able to invite only two duelists to come and participate with you. Inside are three plane tickets that will allow you and your two friends to board the special planes that will be taking the duelists to the lovely land down under, Australia. Also inside is a pass that will let you into one of the many Hotels that the Duelists will be staying at. Once there you will all meet and get the full instructions and dueling equipment for the tournament. The Planes will leave on Friday. We hope that you will join us. Our Motto is Duel or Die! Because if you don't duel here, you're going to wish you were dead for missing this tournament."

"Wow, that sounds like fun. All the best Duelists in the world all gathered in one place. There is a second of these letters here addressed to Ryou." Mina said.

Just then Yugi came out. "Hey you guys, why are you sitting out here?" he asked.

"Let's go inside. We have something to tell you." Once inside Sdrive read the letter to the gang. "You got one too Ryou."

"I didn't realize I was considered one of the best Duelists in the world."

"You did make it to the Battle City Finals," Yugi said. "I'm not too surprised."

"Well I don't know about you guys but I'm going to go check my mail. See ya." Joey said running out the door.

"I think I will go check on my mail too."

"You got invited." Yamato and Sdrive both said at the same time.

"How do you guy's know?"

"You are the best Duelist in the world. Of course you got invited."

"Well I'm going to go any way."

"I think I will go too," Peace said. "I'm pretty tired and I really want to check my mail."

They all left leaving only Yamato, Mina, Sdrive, and Ryou. "I know I got invited. But I'm surprised you did Stupid Apprentice," Yamato said. "You may be a better duelist than you were a long time ago and you may just make it to the finals of a tournament, I believe this because I have taught you, but you're not that well known. Why would they think your one of the best Duelists in the world."

"I was thinking the same thing. I'm not the best known duelist out there. I think this may be a trap to lure all the Sennen Item holders. I have been sensing disturbances in the Mystic Alignment lately. And I'm more than willing to bet that this tournament is the reason why."

"Either way, I still hope that I was invited," Mina said. "I think dueling the best in the world would be awesome."

"That may be true but we will have to be very careful. Just in case. And I will do my best to keep you from harm. I'm sure Yamato will too."

"You bet."

"Thanks guys."

"I have to get going," Yamato said. "I'm going to work on my deck."

"Ok, I'm going to walk Mina home and then I'll call you later." Sdrive said.

"Sure, see ya."

Mina and Sdrive both said good bye and with that Yamato left and soon after that Mina and Sdrive left as well. They walked in silence and for a few minutes before Mina spoke up. "Why didn't you share your thoughts about the tournament with the others?"

"Yamato and I are very secretive. We don't trust a lot of people. Yamato has helped me with getting better at Duel Monsters and we have sort of bonded. We have both had rough life's and we are more in tune with the ancient past of the Items than most people are."

"Then why did you discuss it with me there?"

"You sort of fit in with our little messed up clan. I would do anything for Yamato, and I'm pretty sure he would do anything for me. And we would both help you out because you have also had a little bit of a tough time adjusting. Yugi and the others haven't. They have had a nice normal life. We three are the outcasts sort of. Yugi and the others are fine friends, don't get me wrong. But they just haven't had the same experiences as you, Yamato and I have had. We trust you."

When they got to Mina's house there was the letter in the Mail box just as expected. "Thank's for walking me home. Do you want to come inside? It's getting kind of cold."

"No, I'm fine. I like cool air. Besides I have to get home and Talk to Yamato more about this. We trust you but there are still some things you don't know about the items and Yamato and I are pretty intone with them. I'll see you tomorrow."

"Bye," With that Sdrive left to go back home. It was his turn to cook tonight and he still had to call Yamato.

Meanwhile in Egypt.

"So there is going to be an new Tournament?" Marik said. "Rare Hunters, assemble. This should be interesting."

Eleswhere in the world.

"Hmmmm, a Duel Monsters Tournament. Masters? This should be interesting. Seiko!"

"Yes Master Ron?"

"Get the Magic Seekers together. I think this might just be interesting."

"Yes Master Ron."

Meanwhile in Australia

"Sega, is all ready for the Tournament?"

"Yes Sayora. All is ready my Queen."

"And what of the holders of the Items?"

"They have all been given an invitation."

"And what of the two boys? Is everything ready for them?"

"Yes my Queen."

"Excellent. Then we are all ready for our Tournament."

---------

Sdrive: Who are the Magic Seekers? And what does Sayora mean by the two Boys? And who the Heck is Sayora anyway?

Shi: And why is Sdrive being an idiot?

Sdrive: Be quiet. Anyway. This was an extremely long and tedious chapter to write. There will be even more long chapters coming. Plus more OC's. I hope I didn't let my ego get the better of me. I tried to keep it in check. I hope I succeeded. Attention. I would really like some help with this. I need a lot of help with a lot of things but that is besides the point. Writing Duels is extremely hard especially with not many characters. If you could, please send me your Characters. If you have any Original Characters, or if you yourself would like to be in this, then please tell me. All I will need is a brief description of the Character, their deck, their Gender, and what their rarest card is. I must warn you now, your character will probably be defeated or worse. I just need people for everyone to duel. And I need a lot of characters. I'm sorry if your character gets defeated but most likely your character will be put into the story either way. I thank you all in advance and I hope that I will get your support with this story. Power to the Hikari's
