I want to write a Yu-Gi-Oh fanfic, but I can't decide on which of my ideas to write. I have three in mind and would like you guys to tell me which one you would like me to write. I am going to write what each idea is about, along with a piece of the story to go along with it. Fair warning, I will be using the original Japanese names for the characters, while research will need to be done to get the Japanese names of the cards, so no matter which idea is chosen, chapters with duels will take longer to write.

Idea 1:

The first idea takes place about a century after the original series. However, the spin-offs never happened in this continuity (this is mainly because I only ever watched the original and GX in their entirety, so I don't want to piss off fans of 5D's, Zexal, or ArcV by screwing up with the entire continuity). The future duel disks have retained the clunky look of the original disks, but are far more advanced than any that came before them. Rather than holograms or augmented reality, the disks transport the duelists to another dimension where the monsters are made real. Each disk is also equipped with a forcefield generator to protect the duelists during direct attacks. There are, of course, different classes of duel disks.

To keep this brief, I will only talk about the class of disk that our protagonist carries, the Blood Disk. The Blood Disk is the most secure type of duel disk in existence. It can only be activated by a drop of the owner's blood, users are recommended to use protective sleeves for their cards when using this type of disk, and can only be used by that person.

The story takes place a few years after the Millennium Items have been dug up for the umpteenth time, and the puzzle finds its way to the Muto family, again. There will be a brief explanation about how the magic that was used to seal Atem's soul in the Millennium Puzzle required for a piece of his soul to remain there for all eternity in the prologue.

The protagonist of the story is Muto Yuna, the great-grandaughter of Yugi. She has denounced Duel Monsters completely after the new wielder of the Millennium Rod took her mother's soul in a Dark Game(for those of you who don't know, that is what the Shadow Games were called in the original). She works with her grandfather, Yugi's son, in the game shop, despite her father wanting her to live with him. At this point, I should point out that she respects Duel Monsters and those who play it, but it was her fear of what will happen to her if she continues to play it that caused her to denounce it. Her grandfather spends most of their conversations talking about how it is her destiny to live up to Yugi's legacy. He says stuff like that because he noticed that she had been solving the Millennium Puzzle in her sleep.

When the wielder of the Millennium Rod arrives, he gives her a choice,

a) Finish the Puzzle and let the spirit duel him in her body.

b) Duel him herself and try to avenge her mother, or die trying.

Or c) do nothing and let him steal the souls of her and everyone she loves.

She of course picks the first option and our story unfolds from there.

Despite denouncing Duel Monsters, Yuna still possesses a duel disk, a Blood Disk to be specific, and a dueling deck to honor her mother's memory. Her deck is made up of a new, unique to this continuity, archetype known as the Color Witches, which are monsters that can be sacrificed to call on stronger versions of themselves. She also possesses a Black Magician Girl and a Red Eyes Black Dragon, which she can fuse into the Dragon Armor Witch. Her ace monster is a ritual monster. It's ritual spell is Black Summoning Seal, which can only be used if you have at least five spellcasters in your graveyard. Simply banish five spellcasters from your graveyard and Yuna's ace can be summoned, Black Magic Sorceress. Black Magic Sorceress's attack and defense points are equal to the total attack and defense of the monsters banished to summon her.

Why share so many details and spoilers for the first chapter? Because if I don't write this fanfic, then someone else can.

Preview(written through first person perspective) Yuna's POV

I headed back to the game shop after school, it's not like I had anything else to do. I passed many trading shops along the way. They were all popular in their own right, but my family's shop was more successful due to the long line of dueling champions that were raised there. I arrived at the shop and opened the door.

"I'm back," I called.

"Welcome home," grandpa greeted.

In his youth, grandpa resembled Yugi, although it's only natural for a son to resemble his father. Nowadays, he resembled my great-great-great-grandfather, you know, Yugi's grandpa. Of course, since I look like a girl version of great-grandpa, it doesn't really leave much hope for me when I grow old.

Grandpa was dealing with what I thought was a customer until I got behind the counter and saw his face. It was Kaiba Reiji, or as the girls in my class call him, Kaiba-sama. While at school, I would be polite and refer to him as senpai, I would show him no such politeness outside of school grounds.

"Hello Yuna-chan," he greeted.

"Kaiba," I scoffed at the corporate scumbag, who's attention returned to grandpa.

"Now then," Kaiba continued as though I had never arrived, "as I was saying. I hope that, over time, we can erase the bad blood my father put between KaibaCorp and your game shop."

"I hope so too," grandpa said, "although, I have a feeling that the bad blood you should be worrying about is between you and my granddaughter."

"Hmph," I scoffed, going through the door behind the counter and heading upstairs.

I opened the door to my room and tossed by bag on my bed. I couldn't believe that grandpa wanted me to be friends with that jerk. I sat down at my desk and turned on the computer. Unsurprisingly, dad had sent me another email asking me to leave the game shop and come live with him in America. I sent him the same rejection that I always do and looked at the picture of mom that sat on my desk.

"Do you think he'll ever get the hint?" I asked.

I looked behind mom's picture and past the Blood Disk she got me before she died. The golden box that grandpa gave to me a few years ago sat open on the end of the desk. I looked inside and saw that the Puzzle within was almost complete. Grandpa kept telling me that I was sleep solving the puzzle, and that it was my destiny to complete it and follow in great-grandpa's footsteps. I brushed his statement off at first, but now, looking at the nearly complete Puzzle, I didn't know what to think.

If this is the story you want me to write, please let me know.
