The newest edition of my sagas is now underway! This time, it takes place after the Ceremonial Duel between Yugi and Atem, and the Protectors aren't doing so well after their best fighter left them. Still, who could blame them? So, enjoy this exciting saga, Dominion!
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the story, my OC, and the saga. Thank you.
The Protectors of Domino all sat around the fire, warming themselves in the bright light of the flickering flames. Their eyes reflected the continuous dance as they sighed heavily. Yugi's eyes were filled with tears, his left fist clenched tightly. Brian Berg noticed his gaze, and placed a hand upon his shoulder, gently shaking him.
"We know how you feel, Yugi," he whispered. "But I'm sure that he's watching us right now from the afterlife." Yugi nodded slightly, his eyes shaded by his hair. A smile slowly appeared on his face as he wiped the tears away. His friends were always counting on him, and he knew that Atem was watching them. His smile became brighter as the flames continued their dance on the log.
-Domino Stadium-
The next night, Yugi stood before the roaring crowd, the other band members behind him in the shadows. The stars twinkled and blinked in and out of the dark, husky sky, a full harvest moon hanging over them. The glow seemed distant, but it was calming to the soul, soothing all bitterness and rage that one felt. Yugi looked out at the crowd, who were cheering and chanting out the band's name in unison, whistles occasionally joining in the symphony. Before the other members could begin, screams tore through the once hyped up crowd. A yellow dragon, Curse of Dragon, screeched loudly, tearing through the once happy scene. It was now filled with panic as the crowd screamed in terror, fleeing for their lives. The Protectors pulled out their weapons, but before they could attack, a bright light surrounded them, blinding their vision from the monster. The screams from the stadium were fading, as was the light that temporary blinded them. When it had lifted from the haze, they looked around. They found themselves in a world, large castle in the very middle of it all. Forests, bodies of water, meadows, and mountains surrounded the monument, the Protectors gazing at it with awe.
"Where are we?" Kairi asked, still gripping the hilt of her sword.
"You're in the Dominion of the Beasts," a soft voice replied behind them. When they turned, they saw a woman with a pink and blue outfit along with a hat of the same color. A staff was placed in her hand. It was the Dark Magician Girl. "I was the one that helped you escape from Curse of Dragon. The reason I summoned you is that we need your help." She pointed to the castle with her staff.
"Someone has taken control of the Dominion, and transformed some of the monsters into evil creatures. We are forced to partake in dangerous tournaments, a match of life or death. We can't back out. We needed someone of your expertise of fighting to defeat the one who did this." She gave off a pleading look. "Please. You're the only one's who can help us in this dangerous matter." Yugi stepped forward, and nodded.
"If the Pharaoh were here, he would do the same thing," he whispered. "Let's go."
