He looked around in the darkness, the nothingness. Bored and unhappy. He once was real, a person. He was nothing until summoned. Even then he is just an image. Still he had feeling. Still he was real, but only in the nothingness.

Then he felt the same tingle as he was pulled onto the field in attack mode. He saw there was a Blue Eyes White Dragon on the field and knew who he was battling. "Then I raise his attack with Energy Drain! It allows me to increase the Attack and Defense of my monster by the amount equal to the number of cards in your hand x 200. And since you have three cards in your hand Kaiba, his attack power raises from 2500 to 3100. Then I use Pyramid Energy. I can select and activate one of the effects. And I choose to increase the attack of all the face up monsters on your side of the field by 200. So his attack raises from 3100 to 3300!" said Yami.

"Now Dark Magician, Dark Magic Attack!" he cried.

Dark Magician raised his staff. He hated to take life, knowing it caused them pain just as it did him. But he had to, Duel Monsters had to obey. Dark Magician looked at Blue Eyes White Dragon and attacked. A colorless wave of energy came out of his staff. He watched as Blue Eyes White Dragon disappeared from the field.

"No, my Blue Eyes!" yelled Kaiba as his life points began to drop to zero. Kaiba looked at Dark Magician with pure hatred. "I wish you were real, then could show you what real power is," he said.

Kaiba walked away from the dueling arena. He looked over his shoulder, and glared at Yami. "Next time you won't be so lucky Yugi. Next time you won't win," he said. He looked down to glare at Dark Magician, the Duel Monster he most despised. Then he turned his head and walked away. Yami stepped off of the dueling area. In a flash of light Yugi stood in his place.

Yugi stood there for a few moments admiring his Dark Magician that was still on the filed. "I wish you were real too..." he paused to chose his words carefully. "You're my favorite Duel Monster... It's almost like I know you. Like we talk for hours to each other every day and we face dangers together. And we do... Because you are always there for me when I call on you. So in a way you are my friend, and maybe someday I can find a way to take you off the field and into the world."

Dark Magician heard every word. He wished he could talk to Yugi, his friend. But he knew it could never be. He felt himself disappear as Yugi took the Dark Magician card and put it in his deck.

He was back in the nothingness. This time frustrated. I was human... Why can't I be once more? He asked himself. Why can't other Duel Monsters be in the same nothingness I am in? At least I wouldn't be bored. I guess there in the same predicament I am... He looked at his staff and began to twirl it between his long graceful fingers. To keep himself occupied Dark Magician began to recite all the cards in Yugi's deck. "Summoned Skull, Celtic Guardian, Monster Reborn, Swords of Revealing Light, Kuriboh, Card Destruction, Black Luster Soldier..." He kept repeating the cards over and over, for there was little he could do in the lonely darkness.

Yugi walked out of the dueling arena unhappy, but he wasn't sure why. I just one another duel with Kaiba... Why do I feel so down? He thought. When he walked outside it started to rain. "Great just what I needed," moaned Yugi as he started his long walk home.

"Hey, Yugi!" yelled a familiar voice. "Hi, Joey!" exclaimed Yugi as his friend raced up to him. "I heard you dueled Kaiba, did ya' win Yug?" "Yeah," said Yugi. "I used my Dark Magician." "Tell me the whole duel pal, I'm all ears," said Joey enthusiastically. Yugi lost all his thoughts of depression. "All right," said Yugi as he playfully jumped in a puddle. "Great," said Joey. And two friends walked down the street.

Dark Magician shifted uncomfortably in his sleep. It was a dream, a nightmare.

He was running, desperately running. Trying to reach something. Something he desperately wanted. Then someone grabbed his hand. It was Yami, the Pharaoh. "Dark Magician," he said. "You mustn't give up. You must follow your dream, you must follow your heart." "But how," asked Dark Magician. "Break through the barrier, become who you once were..." Yami let go of Dark Magician's hand and started to back away. "Wait!" cried Dark Magician. But Yami disappeared, leaving the confused Dark Magician behind.

Dark Magician could hear voices nearby. He saw they were shadows. Dark Magician was curious and moved forward. Then he noticed the shadows didn't have a body. They moved right up to him. Dark Magician stood frozen with fear though he didn't know why. As a Duel Monster his first instinct would be to protect himself, but he just stood there.

The shadows drew closer until they were inches from were Dark Magician stood. One of the shadows drew a sword and slashed Dark Magician on the chest. Blood poured out of the wound. Dark Magician just stared at the shadows with pain in his eyes. Then they enveloped him into complete blackness. Dark Magician could feel himself falling into a never ending pit of darkness... Screaming...

Dark Magician awoke. Fear coursed through his body. It was just a dream. He thought. Just a dream...

"Wow, Yug! That was some duel!" exclaimed Joey. After Yugi finished telling him about the duel. "Yeah, It was all because of Dark Magician that I won the duel," said Yugi. "If I hadn't have drawn him out then Blue Eyes would have beet me for sure!" "But he didn't, Yug. As long as you have Dark Magician your invincible!" said Joey. "Yeah," said Yugi.

They finally got to Yugi's house. "Would you like to come in?" offered Yugi to Joey. "Sure, Yug!" said Joey. They both went inside and sat down. "You wanna' watch something?" asked Yugi picking up the remote. "Ok," said Joey walking over to Yugi's movie collection. "Lets see... What should we watch?" Joey muttered to himself. "Aha!" he said as he picked out a movie. "What did you pick Joey?" asked Yugi. "You'll see," said Joey mysteriously. "Huh?" said Yugi puzzled.

Joey slipped in the DVD. The screen showed a black screen then words appeared. Pirates of the Caribbean, it read. "Yay! I LOVE this movie!" cried Yugi enthusiastically. "I knew you liked it, and so do I," said Joey with a wink.

They watched the movie with wide eyes. "Oh! I love this part!" said Joey as Jack Sparrow walked in the cave filled with pirates. "You!" said one of the pirates, "You supposed to be dead!" "Am I not?" asked Jack, "Huh," and turned to walk away. More pirates came from behind. Jack was trapped. "Palololaylo... Parsley... Parsnip... Parney... poolly, poolly..." he said confused. "Parlay?" said another pirate. "That's it! That's the one! Parlay! PARLAY!" said Jack. "I love that scene!" laughed Joey. "It's so funny!" said Yugi amused.

After the movie was over Joey went home. Now Yugi sat alone in his living room on his couch. He sighed and snatched up his deck. He began to look through his cards. He stopped when he got to his Dark Magician. His eyes glittered as he looked at his favorite card, the one he considered to be the most powerful in his deck. Then Yugi suddenly got the urge to duel someone. He put his cards in his Duel Disk and walked outside.
