It was a normal lunch time; Nate was teaching the kids in the library how to play magic and was having a few laughs.

"Nathan Thorn please report to Mr. Darway's office" the intercom played over the loud speaker.

Nate was a tall boy but very lean, he always wore a long trench coat and a button up white shirt with a case containing glasses in his breast pocket; he was shaven bald and a very happy child.

"Hey guys I'll be right back." Nate told his students and then headed towards the office.

Nate headed downstairs into a room with cream colored walls, there was only one window leading out to the court yard, there was a desk beside the window and a computer sitting on top of it. Mr. Darway was so busy bustling around his notes that he hadn't realized Nates arrival.

"Oh Nathan, just the person I wanted to see." Darway said

"I figured, what's this about? Have I done something wrong?"

"No no no, a new boy is arriving and we wanted someone to show him around the town."

"You want me to do it? Forgive my asking but why?"

"Well to be perfectly honest, he is a duelist and we want someone to show him where the duel stadiums are and the duel tables around the school and town"

"Mr. Darway you know I don't use the holographic devices for dueling anymore."

"I know but I know I can trust you and I know you know where they are so can you please just help me out?" Darway pleaded with a look pathetic look in his eye, Nate gave it some thought and then agreed to show the boy around the day of his arrival.

The day finally comes two days later and Nate is waiting by the door of his school. A car pulls up and out steps a boy about Nates age, he has long black untamed hair and has a black leather vest on with no under shirt, he is wearing tight black jeans and black fingerless gloves, and like Nate and every other duelist he had a belt on made for holding decks. Nate looks at the new boy wondering what he has gotten himself into and musters up the courage to walk over and talk to the strange looking boy

"Hey, you must be Tray the new kid" Nate said with a smile

"That's me" Tray said with a smile and extended his hand out.

"I'm Nate I've been assigned to show you around" Nate then shakes the boys hand and is filled with relief, Tray seems nice enough.

"I see you are a duelist" Tray says pointing at Nate's card case attached to his belt.
Nate casually smiled "Aren't we all now a days, that's actually the reason I was assigned."

"So you could show me the holographic arenas within the school and town"

"Exactly, but truth be told I don't use the holographic generators."

Nate spent the entire day showing Tray around, showing him the hidden duel arenas in the school gym and the battle tables in the multipurpose room, they went to the duelist coliseum in the center of the town where tournaments are played and the duel arenas made for public use and finally Nate showed Tray the popular card shop.

"Tray this is Rich he owns the Card Kingdom" Nate Introduced Tray.

"So you must be the new kid" Rich said. Rich was odd looking man, he had a slim face and build; he had long brown hair he tied back and a small beard.

"Rich? As in the champion black duelist?!" Tray looked at Rich as if he was looking at a god.

"I do like my black cards, and I was an undefeated black champion. Sooooo yea I think that is me" Rich smiled; Rich was the type of person to poke fun at anybody for anything.

"So Tray, what are you doing here? Like why move here?"

"To be honest, I'm looking for someone" Tray said "I've heard the Prophet lives in this town." Nate stopped, his blood ran cold and he went pale.

"The Prophet? You mean the kid from that biker group?" Rich questioned "Didn't they all disappear five years ago?"

"I've been looking for them and I traced Prophet back here."

"Why?" Nate asked

"I want to duel them" Tray said with an intense glare.

"Well no one knows who they are sooo isn't it a stupid thing to try and do?"

"I have the spare time" Tray replied "I'll know who it is when I see him duel. All five members had round sunglass lenses of one of the five, colors his wear dark blue."

Prophet, I haven't heard that name in five years Nate thought deeply this could be bad.

Tray got home around nine at night; he walked into his empty house and into his room. Tray lived alone so his room had everything he needed: all his cards.

That boy Nate is the Prophet I'm sure of it master Tray thought smiling deviously, in his hand he held a card; A very rare card that only a chosen few have been given, the Eye of Ugin, the cards are housed by evil demon like monsters called Eldrazi

What should I do next? Tray thought

Destroy him in a duel crush him the Eldrazi of Tray's card said

I know just how to get to him. Tray thought evilly

Tray looked at his deck and smiled, his red eyes grew wide and his smile grew demonic, his untamed hair covering one of his red eyes.

Finally I get to duel the Prophet, a duelist truly worthy to feel the might of my best deck. Tray went into his closet and toke out a big black metal box; he opened it to reveal a deck of 60+ cards.

My unholy deck of the undead will vanquish him Tray started to laugh manically I will destroy the so called Prophet and earn my place next to my Eldrazi masters!!

Nate's day started normal but once he got to school everything changed. He got into the multipurpose room he saw every duelist he was training sitting around some laying on the floor some bleeding and others just broken spirited. Nate ran over to a boy with blond spikey hair.

"Jack what happened?!" Nate yelled

"The new kid." Jack said with the look of a broken spirit on his face "he challenged us one by one and defeated us; he stole our decks once he beat us. He told us to give you this." it was a message that read:

Hello Nate,

I am keeping all these weaklings deck hostage, and I will burn them all unless you come and duel me in the gym at 5'o clock.

I told you and Rich that I was here to duel the Prophet and I plan to, and your reaction after hearing the name was too close to home.

So Mr. Prophet come duel me you blue bastered.

Tray the Dark Lord.

Nate's very essence became shrouded with hate.

"He wants a duel, fine I'll give him a duel."

At 5'o clock Nate appeared in a the gym, the lights shone down to reveal Tray, looking as evil as he did in his room.

"Hello Nate." Tray said

"Tray, you have made a terrible mistake" Nate declared. "For the honor of my friends! I WILL DEFEAT YOU!!"

"Then let us begin" Tray then extended his arm out to his left and two pedestals made for producing holograms while dueling moved out of the wall.

"I'm Nathan Thorn!" Nate then toke out the container out of his breast pocket and toke out shades with round blue lenses on and put them on. "AND I AM THE PROPHET OF THE FATAL FIVE!"
