Zypher; Well, I couldn't resist another cross over and this time, it's slightly compatible. For those that have seen Dragon Drive before will know the dragons and how everything works. For those that don't, just Head to One Manga and you can read a few of the chapters there or Veoh to watch the anime. Anyways, hope you'll enjoy this cross over like all others and as I said from angbfv54rtt earlier chapter to another story, due to lack of emails on all things from alerts to sending out alerts, if you want a message sent to you about updates, tell me what your email address is in your review so I can have it on my contacts list to alert you about updates. Now enough of my ramblings for today. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: Don't own either but I wish we had a Dragon Drive game in real life. -sob-

Yugi sighed softly as he sat in his last period class of the day, fiddling with a difficult puzzle that he has already solved more times than he can count. He sighed, placing the game into his bag and tuned out the lesson. 'I'm a master of games and yet I've beaten every single one people have to offer me.' He thought silently, looking out the window. 'If there any game that I can't win so easily?' he wondered to himself.
"Hey, Yugi!" Jou called, waking Yugi from his thoughts and made him realize that the bell has rung. "Oh, hello, Jou. Something up?"
"Yeah. I have something to show you that Reiji showed me a while back. I'm sure you'll like it." Yugi contemplated the idea before giving a nod, smiling. "Sure. I have nothing else better to do today." They were soon gone, gathering up with the rest of their ragtag group of friends and they were off.
"So, what did Reiji show you, Jou?" Diamond asked as they walked along. He gave an evil grin as he looked over to her. "It's a really cool game. I'm sure you all will like it. I've already showed Ryou, Kaiser and Keara since you guys were gone the last time me and Reiji headed there."
They walked along for a moment longer before coming up to Ryuuguujou, the tiny shop tucked away between two large buildings, making it near invisible to pedestrians. They walked inside and passed the sleeping old woman and her sleeping cat into the back. "Where's the game? I'm sure it wouldn't be in someone's home like this." Yugi murmured. Jou smirked, raising a finger before pressing a button and there was some sounds before the closet door opened, revealing an elevator.
Yugi was amazed and followed behind the group and the elevator traveled the few floor deep underground before it reached their designated floor marked with a double D and the door opened, revealing to Yugi a large underground arcade filled with teens of all ages, some from his own school and other from various junior high and high schools around Domino.
"Wow...this looks so awesome already." Yugi whispered.
"Great. Just the reaction we were waiting for."
Soon, a loud roar and cheering was heard and Yugi asked about it. "Again, just what we're waiting for. Come with me." Kaiser said, tugging Yugi and Diamond over to where a large group of kids were gathered. They were cheering and hollering as they watched the big screen and Yugi's eyes widened as he looked upon the screen as well. There on screen were two huge dragons duking it out, two teens standing upon their heads and commanding their every movement. With another lethal bite, the lightning based dragon won, gaining cheers from those that believed that dragon to win.
"Jou...what is this game?"
Jou gave a chuckle before patting Yugi's shoulder. "This, my friend, is Dragon Drive!" Yugi nodded, still awestruck and Jou laughed softly as he led the other teen towards the information booth, Diamond following behind him. "Jounouchi! Hey, Jounouchi!" A voice cried and he turned, seeing Reiji and Maiko running over to them. "Hey, guys!" Jou said, waving to them as they reached over to them. "So, are these the last of your friends that needed to be introduced to Dragon Drive?"
"Yep. Reiji, Maiko, meet Yugi and Diamond."
"Nice to meet you." Maiko greeted, smiling to them warmly.
"Yeah. Real great to meet you. Now, since I'm, guessing that Jou was taking you to the information desk to get your mobiles, let's go! I want to see what kind of dragons are sleeping within you guys!" Reiji said, taking Yugi's hand and dashed off with him towards the information booth. Jou chuckled and he along with Maiko and Diamond followed behind him. When they got there, Yugi and Diamond registered themselves into the game and received their mobiles. "Now, for the fun part. Come on!"
Again, they were led away by an enthusiastic Reiji over to the playing circle where the overseer of the matches, L, was announcing about new players joining the game. "And here they are now! Welcome Motou Yugi and Diamond Rose! Now, who wants to be first to find out what their dragon will be?"
Diamond raised her hand. "I'll see about my dragon first." she spoke and L nodded, motioning to the seat waiting for her and she went to sit down. The helmet was lowered over her head and soon, a whirring sound was heard and she winced slightly as the sound assaulted her ears. "Now, let's access our dragon data and find the perfect dragon for you!" L called, the big screen overhead projecting everything and when the sound finally came to a stop, the screen read COMPLETE.
"Alright! Now, let see what your dragon is, Diamond!"
The dragon appeared on screen, revealing a white dragon with large, feathery wings and golden fur that covered the base of its neck and along its tail. Its mouth was filled with lethal teeth while one eye glared out from the intricate hood over its head. "And a wonderful choice. Congratulations, Diamond! Your dragon is the incredible Faneuial! The Guardian of the Twilight sky!"
She smiled and nodded, getting out of the seat to receive her card of her dragon with stats. "Are you ready, Yugi, to see about your dragon?" L asked as she looked over to him. He nodded, stepping into the playing circle and sat down in the seat, the helmet slipping over his head. The whirring sound started up once more as the dragon database was accessed. 'I hope I'll get a good dragon.' he thought, staying passive as the machine did its work. Soon, it was complete and the image of his dragon came on screen.
It wasn't too big and yet it wasn't too small. Like Chibisuke, Reiji's dragon, it had no definite stats. It scales gleaned like a prism, glowing various colors and its eyes were a vibrant shade of clear, crystal blue. Majestic wings of white flowed from the dragon's back and a flowing mane of silver tipped in black ran from his head to just under its collarbone, making a flowing crest and stopped there only to begin again at the base of its spine and down to its tail where it ended again as a big puff of tail fur.
Two small tusks came from its lower jaw and the claws shined like pearls. Yugi looked as his chosen dragon, amazed, and he wasn't the only one. "His dragon is so cool. He almost has something like Chibi but Chibi surely didn't turn out like this." Reiji whispered in awe.
Kids all around them started to murmur about Yugi's dragon as he received his card. He was unaware he was being watched closely by another who stood away from the crowd but was in clear viewing distance of the large screen. Soon, he, Diamond and a few other that were participating in today's match were led to the dueling circle where each took a seat.
"Now, I'm sure you all know the rules! Today's match is a no way out Battle Royal! You have a set time limit to defeat as many players as you can! To operate your dragons, you must link your thoughts to you dragon and work together as one!"
Yugi nodded, listening to the rules closely as he took a look to his dragon once more. "Now, load your card into your mobiles and set them into the slot!" Each player did so and soon, the visors came over their heads. "Alright! Good luck and rank up those points!" L called.
"D-break!"
Like a shock, the machine went into effect, pulling Yugi's conscious thought from his body and into the virtual reality world that was Dragon Drive.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw he was in a town deserted of people except for the players roaming around the expansive area. "Wow, this all supposed to be virtual? But it looks so real." He heard a roar and turned to see his dragon standing behind him.
"Cool. Now, she said your mind can make your dragon move, hmm..." he thought before hearing a hiss and saw another player's dragon rounding the corner of a building. "There you are! Your dragon may be cool but let's see how your first battle will turn out! Go!" The player commanded and his dragon roared before unleashing a wave of fire.
Yugi ducked out of the way before running off, waving to his dragon who immediately followed behind him. From outside, people watched in interest, including L. 'So...he's an enigma just like Reiji...able to get his dragon moving without fail.' she thought as she continued to watch.
When they came to a stop, they turned to see their pursuer land before them. "Nowhere else to run, kid. Attack, Hydra!" The multi-headed dragon gave a hiss before unleashing another wave of flames.
"Counter, Uryarion!" Yugi called and his dragon roared, unleashing a breath that sparkled like glimmering jewels but deadly as an ice storm. The player and his dragon cried out before they disappeared from the game, signaling their defeat. "Wow..." Yugi whispered before turning to his dragon with a big smile. "You did great, Uryarion!" The dragon gave a purr in satisfaction from the praise she received.
"Come on, let's see if we can find Diamond." Uryarion gave a nod and swept Yugi onto her back before flaring out his large wings and took to the air.
"And in a major surprise, Motou Yugi has easily gained control over his dragon and is airborne within five minutes! You have to give this new entry into the game major props for succeeding where most have failed!" L announced.
"He just like me and Chibi. When I first started the game, I felt connected to Chibi more than I would've thought. I wonder if these things are rare."
"They probably are, Reiji, and you should feel lucky to be one of them." Maiko spoke, unaware of the jealousy that was flaring from a nearby pillar. "My darling Maiko Yukino. Why do you still hang out with that loser?!" The male thought, jealous of the possibility of her being together with Reiji and he just wouldn't accept that.
Back in the game, Yugi encountered Diamond who was in the air as well with Faneuial. "Hey, Yugi! Glad to see you up in the air! Was it hard to gain connection with your dragon?"
"No, it wasn't all that hard. We felt as if we were bonded when I made eye contact with her." he replied.
"Good to hear. Now let go and rake up some points." she said as Faneuial flew off and Yugi followed behind her as thy encountered the rest of the players and easily defeated them, waiting for the time to be up so they didn't have to worry about challenging each other. Once time was called, they both got up from their seats as the visor rose up and they walked over to the group of friend who cheered for their first victory.
In the shadows, the male watched Yugi before motioning to another resting beside him before the two left, unseen by the cheering crowds that gathered to watch more of the battles. The group watched a few more before they left for the day. "That was so cool! I'm glad you showed this game to me, Jou!" Yugi said exuberantly as he looked to his taller friend. Jou grinned, patting Yugi's shoulder.
"Well, I knew this game would interest you well and it isn't so easy to beat. There are stronger people in there so you'll have to train big time if you at least want to make it into the three ranks. It will be hard just getting to the top but hopefully you'll at least be part of it cause I know you can make it up there." Jou said and Yugi nodded.
Soon, they parted ways and Yugi was left alone to head home by himself. He was unaware that he was being watched by the same two people that watched his battle earlier and was intrigued by how easily he was able to control his dragon and wanted to know more.
'Reiji was the last and he knows him so I wonder if they two are connected in some way.' The older teen thought before giving a signal with his hand and with a flurry of wings, he was gone into the night. Yugi took a glance back, thinking that he heard something but seeing as there was no one there behind him, he shrugged it off and continued on home, eagerly waiting for the next day where he would again play Dragon Drive and learn more about his new dragon partner, Uryarion.
