AN/ I wonder if 'gotta catch 'em all' applies to copyrights, too.

AN2/ Just for y'all to know, there will be no Kaiba bashing. I don't know why you'd read this if you wanted to bash him anyways...... I happen to be a Kaiba fanatic. I love Kaiba! He's my boyfriend!

The Duel Monster's champion was sorting through his deck, trying to think up a new strategy. Industrial Illusions had just released a new set of cards, and there was a lot of new dragons to chose from. That didn't include new magic and trap cards that anyone could use. Kaiba had to be ready for anything. He was determined to become the Duel Monster's champion again. He felt that the title was rightfully his.

"Three Blue-Eyes, White Dragons," he muttered, counting his dragon cards. "Two Hyozanryu..... I guess I could get by with one of those. If I replace it with another Cloud Dragon.."

He sighed and rubbed his head. Normally, he'd revamp his deck to relieve stress. But today, it seemed only to make it worse. It wasn't going as smoothly as it normally did. There seemed something seriously lacking from his deck.

He tapped his fingers on the deck and just stared at the cards before him.

"What do I want in my deck?" he asked himself. "Powerful dragons.. But I want more than that." He scooped up a handful of dragon cards. They all looked back at him with painted expressions.

"They're so lifeless," he said, at length. "Even with my holograms, I can't change that."

He grabbed his deck and shoved it in his pocket. He started pacing around the room restlessly. There was something bothering him, and he had no idea what that was. That only made him more frustrated.

"I want to mold them," he muttered. "I want them to be free of Pegasus's stupid rules. I want them to extend beyond my machines."

Seto realized he was ranting, but after a sleepless week, he didn't seem to care. "I want...I want," he muttered, flipping through the pictures again. "I want them to be real!"

BOOM! CRASH! He got his wish.

AN/ Sorry for a short first chapter. More to come. And, as always, please read, review, and enjoy! (
