The Shadows of the mind
Duel 1: The puzzle of destiny
My name is Yugi Mutoh, or, at least that's what it was before HE took over.
It all started when my grandfather, Sugoroku, came back from an archeological dig in Egypt. With him, he brought a box of pure untainted gold. He told me it was an ancient puzzle that has not been solved for over 3000 years, and that whoever completes it shall inherit the shadow games and become the guardian of justice. I took the box and opened it. Sure enough, inside there were pieces of a puzzle, also solid gold. I took it up to my room and started working on it. Hours passed, and I had only been able to put three of the many pieces together. Months passed, and I was still no closer to my goal. Seasons came and went, and I soon grew weary of the constant clashing of puzzle pieces, and placed it back into the box, hoping that someday I might forget about it.6 years passed, but my mind was stuck on one thing. Completing the puzzle, until one night, I gave in. I tipped the pieces onto my desk and shut my eyes as I felt around for the pieces, hoping that a miracle would happen. For some strange reason, as I held the pieces, an image popped into my mid. An image showing the solution to the puzzle. My fingers started to react to that image and put the pieces together in correspondence with it until they stopped. I could then feel a pyramid shaped object in my hands. Was this it? I opened my eyes, and then I saw it. A pyramid with an eye in the centre. I picked up the puzzle and turned to show it to grandpa, but then, a beam of light appeared and aimed at my head. I could feel a slight tingling sensation, and then started to lose consciousness.
