Once upon an autumn morning, Tulip-Jin was happily typing.

Tulip-Jin is seen pounding her fists into a keyboard.

"Stupid piece of junk! Why-won't-you-LOAD?"

And then she got a wonderful idea: why not combine two things which she felt near and dear?

Tulip-Jin pauses in her abuse of the keyboard, blinking.

"You're kidding, right? C'mon, I already did that. Mint chocolate-chip ice cream in Mountain Dew! Mmm...the food of queens!"

Putting the cast of one setting into another, what a glorious crossover!

Yami Tulip-Jin enters the room.

"What's with the voiceover, aibou?"

Tulip-Jin shrugs.

"Damned if I know."

Yu-Gi-Oh combined with the Legend of Zelda, now that was her best idea ever!

Yami Tulip-Jin appears more confused with every passing second.

"Why does he sound like Dr. Seuss?"

"...Do I want to know why you know what Dr. Seuss is?"

And so our Authoress set to writing a thrilling story of magic and fighting -

"OI!" bellows Tulip-Jin, interrupting the narrative, "Who are you and WHY are you in my house? And enough with the lame rhyming - or else there's a large pointy stick-err, large pointy FRIEND of mine that I'll need you meet. Severely and repeatedly."

...What? Haven't you heard of an opening narrator? I build suspense and generate interest for the story!

"I'm interested in seeing what aibou does to you with that stick," Yami Tulip-Jin offers, "She was sharpening it yesterday..."

Hmph! Be that way, then. If you people can't handle decent narration, then I'm leaving!

"Are you actually going to write this thing, aibou?" Yami Tulip-Jin inquires once the would-be narrator has vanished.

"You know, I DID have an idea for a crossover recently..."

Tulip-Jin laughs.

"Yami, go! Fetch me a cast! I feel inspiration coming on! Muwahaha!"

"Man, and I just KNOW that this is the idea aibou was up laughing about until 3AM the other day," Yami Tulip-Jin grumbles as she heads off with a big net.

(a-HEM. Let's try this intro thing again, shall we?)

Long ago in the land of Hyrule, deep within the Kokiri Forest, there lived the Kokiri and the Great Deku Tree. The Kokiri were the children of the Great Deku Tree, and each had a guardian fairy as a companion. However, one Kokiri did not have a guardian fairy…

…But hey, we're getting ahead of ourselves here.

One bright and beautiful morning, a crimson fairy was hanging around the Great Deku Tree and arguing with him, just as he had done every single morning since his unfortunate arrival in the forest.

"For the love of anything, please try and convince her to change me back to normal! I want my hands back!"

"And for the fiftieth time, Yami Yuugi," the tree replied irritably, "Do I look like I have that kind of leverage? If I could ask for favors like that, do you think I'd be hanging around here?"

The Great Deku Tree sighed, then continued, "I do have some good news for you..."

"Someone broke the Millennium Puzzle, sending me back to the Shadow Realm again?" Yami Yuugi asked hopefully.

The Great Deku Tree chose not to dignify that particular question with an answer.

Instead he said, "You've been assigned to a kid in the Kokiri Village that doesn't have a fairy yet. Oh, and when you've found him, I need to see the two of you right away."

"Woo-hoo," Yami replied with zero enthusiasm, "Fine, where is this fairy-less person in need of a free light bulb?"

"This time of day?" the Great Deku Tree said, "Still in bed. Second-story treehouse. You can't miss it."

Feeling extremely frustrated, Yami Yuugi fluttered the pathetic little wings of his pathetic fairy body and zipped off towards the village.

There was only one house with the room on the second story. And in the bed was the kid - an unbelievably familiar kid. Even if he did have pointed ears now. And what was up with that pointy hat? But we digress.

"Yuugi!?" Yami Yuugi exclaimed, landing on the boy's head.

"…'go-way," Yuugi mumbled in his sleep, "Five more minutes grampa…"

Yami Yuugi thought for a moment. Then he cleared his throat and spoke, doing a passable imitation of Yuugi's grandfather's voice.

"Yuugi! I made omelets! Hurry up before they turn greenish-purple like the last batch!"

Yuugi shot out of bed in an instant, throwing Yami to the floor.

."No, don't melt the stove again Grandpa!" Yuugi yelled, still half-asleep, "Remember what the fire department said! …Grandpa? Huh?" .

"Ow," Yami Yuugi grumbled from his new spot on the floor.

"Yami?" Yuugi blinked, picking his counterpart off the floor for a better look, "What happened to you?"

"I don't want to talk about it," Yami Yuugi said, shaking off the pain and started an orbit around Yuugi's head (in the way that fairies do), "But if you must know, I'm now your official guardian 'fairy' - as little sense as that makes - and...oh, and you have to go see the Great Deku Tree."

"Really?" Yuugi said, "Okay…when exactly do I have meet with the Great Deku Tree, Yami?"

"About right now," Yami said, and promptly had to grab Yuugi by the shoulder of the boy's green tunic as the boy yelped and bolted for the door.
