' Paper is paper and money is money, but it is true that they were trees before they became that. Well that was the same with Duel Monsters. There were people who made them, and people who became them, there were people who came back, and people who never did.

…But…

There was a girl, a beautiful girl, she was once human, but was turned into a card, it was her wish. Because she had nothing left. Her parents were gone and she had no friends, she wanted to escape, so she was locked away, her emotions, her body, and the beast, everything into a card.

…So…

One day, when it was her time, she would be forgiven, for everything she ever did, for everyone she ever hurt. Her heart wasn't there anymore, because it was torn away by the man she hurt so long ago. It has almost been 5000years since this is happened, so what has happened to this girl with such sins, well to this day, she has been in a card. The card…'

"Now, I'll summon Angel Mace Guardian, come on out" The man with the brown hair said placing his card on the duel disk, a light blue haired angel girl appeared holding a mace, she smiled.

"Now Angel Mace Guardian attack his Obnoxious Celtic Guardian" The man demanded, She laughed in agreement and flew towards the Guardian, with one strike of her mace, the Celtic guardian disappeared. The Angel Mace Guardian giggled and flew back to its rightful place just in front of the brown haired man.

The man laughed as his rival's points went down to 300.

"Yugi, if I was you, I would quit, no one can beat my Angel Mace Guardian" the man started laughing hysterically.

"Don't be so sure Kaiba" Yugi said sternly placing a face down card on his duel disk, it appeared on the field and the Angel Mace Guardian's face turned blank.

"And before I finish my turn, I'm going to use Koribo in defence mode" Yugi placed a card on

"Ha, a little puff ball, I think my winning is making you go crazy Yugi" Kaiba laughed," Now go Angel Mace Guardian, Finish off the rest of his life points"

She giggled again and flew towards Koribo.

"Not so fast Kaiba, I use my face down card," Yugi explained as the face down card turned up so Kaiba could see it. "The change of heart, I take control of your Angel Mace Guardian for the rest of my turn, "Yugi explained.

Suddenly Angel Mace Guardian turned around without control and flew towards Kaiba. And because he didn't have another card or monster on the field, she directly hit him with her mace. He groaned in pain and held his stomach. Kaiba's life points went to 0 and the battle was over.

"That was just good luck, next time, I'm going to be the winner" Kaiba huffed and walked out of the building.

Once he got home, he went into his office to see a book lying open on the desk, a book he didn't leave there. He cautiously walked over and started to read where it was.

' Her curse was the worst, she was not a human any longer, but a beast. She would become this once her heart became whole. Instead of killing her and letting the curse take another host. She was locked away into a card never to be released. But to who is the holder, beware-' Kaiba closed the book and put it back in his bookshelf.

He didn't believe any of this, it was an ancient beast, probably a Hokes, teenagers wrote to make people scared.

But what he should of done, was read the rest of the book.

It was marked.

' Beware, after the holder uses the beast for the hundredth time, she would be released, but she will be useless until she becomes someone's lover, and they become her lover. Beware of any card named ANGEL MACE GUARDIAN'

It was too late to stop the beast, she was already expecting her arrival, under all those giggles, and smiles. She was a beast, a sad, depressed girl.

But only when she falls in love will she become this beast, a beast not even the legendary duel monsters could stop.

Kaiba shifted in his place and placed his desk of duel card on the bedside table. He got comfortable and looked at the ceiling.

"I will beat you Yugi" He picked up the first card that was his Angel Mace Guardian, "You will never be strong enough" He growled and threw it away. Just to have it float to the ground. He closed his eyes and slowly but surely fell asleep. But something was nagging at the back of his head.

There was something about that paragraph he had just read. And Kaiba had read all the superstitious books, but never took any seriously; he once read one about a Girl named Angel.

It went like this.

'Her name was Angel; she was once a beautiful young lady. But the curse was stronger, she fell in love, and then became the beast. She destroyed everything, her family, her friends, and her love. When she came to, everything was gone, everyone she knew, and everyone she loved. She couldn't live with herself, so she sealed herself and her beast into a card, a card no one knew the name of, but she was never to come out again,' Or so they legend foretells

But what it didn't have was she would come back, sooner than everyone thought.

The Angel Mace Guardian card started glowing and soon enough, it disappeared and instead a girl was left. This girl was naked and wet.

"Angel?" The girl heard the man with brown hair say, she crawled over to the man on the bed and looked at him sleep, he said her name.

"An- An- Angle- Angel" She mumbled out, she smiled seeing him shift in his place.

It had been almost 5000years since she had seen the outside. She didn't remember anything and she could only think about the man who was lying on the bed. It was also foretold; that the first man she saw would be the man she was to love.

She smiled and got on the bed, not without difficulty though. This was the first time in a long time that she actually could stand up, she still had her wings and she had her mace in her hand. She was the Angel Mace Guardian.

Once she got on the bed, she crawled over to the sleeping man and lied herself down so her head was just on his chest and fell asleep hearing his heartbeat.

Was this the girl from the books? Was she the great beast? Why can't she remember? And what is she doing here?
