And so it begins...
Seto: "Once upon a time….."
"Lame..."
"Tale as old as time….."
"Lame..."
"I don't have time to play games Mokuba."
"Well then just make up a story big brother. Something new, something exciting, and something with duel monsters!"
"Something with duel monsters…..mhmmm….."
"And a happy ending?"
"Don't get your hopes up…."
"On an island far far away, there was a cottage. Did I say cottage? I meant a giant castle on a monstrous mountain, and surrounded in rich lands of green and gold. This newly marketed real estate included various hills, underground caves, magnificent coasts and state of the art dueling systems all over the island. A prime buy if it wasn't previously owned by a selfish lunatic bent on destroying all life in existence to get his own way."
"Oh! So you're in the story now?"
"No. Enough of your jabbering. Shouldn't you be asleep now?"
"I'm waiting for the ending!"
"The End."
"That's not good enough! I want a story big brother!"
"Fine," he sighed. "A story you'll get"
"In a small gaming shop in the middle of the woods, there lived a family of 3 (rather short) duelists. There was a father, a mother and a little boy duelist. One day, they were experimenting with their decks, but found they were missing some cards, and decided to take a walk to the neighbouring game store to purchase some rare cards. For some reason they didn't seem to lock their doors or invest in proper security and some nosy little girl duelist came along looking for friends. She had heard of little cottages in the woods and had hoped to spread her guidance of friendship. Upon entering the house, she noticed a little wooden desk with a cash register on it and 3 neatly piled decks. Being a fool...errs...innocent little girl she ignored the cash register and examined the little duelist decks.
The first deck was a complicated deck, full of traps and heavily relying on dark monster cards. It was too complicated for her little mind to comprehend. She placed it back, and picked up the second one beside it. It was a deck full of fantasy monsters and fairy tale magic cards. It was just too girly for her! Lastly, she turned to the final deck. It was full of low level monsters, weak traps, and useless magic cards. It was a great starter deck for someone who didn't have the advanced knowledge of a master duelist such as me."
"Seto….," the little one piped up. "That's not funny"
"So, being foolish little girl who was consumed in her latest friendship theory, she failed to hear the family returning. As the door opened the little boy saw the girl duelist. Excitedly, Yugi…errs…the short little boy duelist ran in and gave the girl a shy smile. "Oh hello there," said the girl as she noticed the boy. "I know we'll just be the greatest of friends, because friendship is the …" Before she could finish the father duelist, who was absolutely furious that someone had touched his occult deck, used his millennium ring to banish her to the shadow realm."
"The End," Kaiba finished with a smirk.
" That's horrible!" Mokuba stated. "I want another story, and I'm not going to bed without a real one!" The youngest Kaiba stated with his arms crossed.
Kaiba looked at his watch and realized he was not getting out of this unless Mokuba got another story. He sighed, "Alright, how about a new one? This one involves a prince in shining armor racing against a fierce dragon to get to a princess he has somehow heard of through the town gossip?"
Mokuba settled down in his bed, pulled his blankets up, and waited impatiently for his big brother to continue.
