The Power of Chaos
Prologue:
The skies clouded over with great darkness, though the ground below was covered by blinding light. Then, the Blue-eyed Dragon of the Sorcerer rose to the air through the smoldering opening in what had once been the ceiling of the Pharaoh's palace. From the smoke and ruble came the Pharaoh's servant, his golden plait whipped about by the great winds created by the Dragon's wings. He lifted the Great Key, and rose to the air, where he met his master's foe.
"You cannot stop me" the Sorcerer gloated as he rode his great White Dragon. "You are a mere servant! A cheap conjuror!"
"So long as I have breath in me, I shall fight you!" the golden haired Mage declared. "I call from the Shadows The Red-eyed Dragon of Darkness! Aid me now, and destroy this usurper!" Thunder clapped, and lightning flashed as the Black Dragon emerged from the clouds in great fury. The Mage grabbed hold of the Dragon as it passed him and leaped into it's back. They flew straight towards the Sorcerer and his White Dragon. The White creature opened it's mighty jaws, pure lightning sparking from behind it's teeth.
"White Lightning Attack!" the Sorcerer commanded.
"Flash Flare Blast!!!" the Mage countered. Both dragons released their fury, with fire, lightning, darkness and light clashing! But as the impact died, The Black dragon disappeared, and the Mage, his body beaten and broken, fell to the earth. He hit the ground with a bone cracking jolt. His eyes clouded for a moment, and then, he realized that someone was by his side. He looked up, and his vision cleared.
"Pha... Pharaoh?" the Mage asked weakly.
"My friend," the Pharaoh said. The mighty warrior king's face was full of dread. His lavender eyes filled with tears.
"For... Forgive me? my king," the Mage asked. He coughed, and blood trickled from his mouth. He gasped for breath, "I... I failed you..."
"No, my friend," the Pharaoh said as he cried for his most loyal advisor and comrade, "You have performed your service. I release you from your duty now."
"No, my Liege!" the Mage cried. He too began to shed tears as he said, "I will always serve you, my lord... even... even in the world beyond..." then, he began to cough uncontrollably, blood spattering everywhere. Then, his vision clouded once more, and darkened. His head fell back. The last thing he heard was the Pharaoh's cry...
"Rafiq!!! NO!!!"

Chapter One:
Joey's Confusion
"Why won't this thing work!?" Joey said, frustrated, pounding the Millennium Key against his palm. "I know I made it work before! So where's the 'on' switch?!" He banged it against the concrete ground, trying to make it transform.
"Stop, Joey! You're going to break it!" little Yugi cried. Yami had told him about the past week's strange events, and he was just as perplexed as Joey, but there was only one Millennium Key, and they couldn't take any chances losing it!
"How did I stop time?" Joey asked, looking at the large golden key.
"Maybe you didn't stop time," Tea said. "Maybe it was all in your head."
"Naw," Joey said, looking at the Key from every possible angle, "There's some kind of trick with this thing... I just wish I knew what it was!"
"Maybe it only works when you need it, man," Tristan suggested.
"That's possible," Joey said, "But how am I supposed to learn how to use it if the only time it works is when I'm in a crisis? I can't keep using it as a club."
"Don't worry about it too much," Duke said, "You've got a Millennium Item. That should be cool enough." All of a sudden, there was a flash of blinding light! They shielded their eyes, and Joey's Key transformed into the Staff. When the light died down, before them stood Shadi, holding the Millennium Scales.
"Shadi!" Yugi exclaimed. "What are you doing here?"
"I must speak with you, my Pharaoh" Shadi answered. Then, the Millennium Puzzled glowed, and Yugi became Yugi/Yami.
"What is the trouble, Shadi?" Yugi/Yami asked.
Shadi knelt before Yugi/Yami, and said, "My Pharaoh, I come on errand of great importance. The Twin Swords of Chaos have been found."
"The Twin Swords of Chaos?" Yugi/Yami exclaimed, "Oh no!"
"The Twins Swords of Chaos?" Everyone else asked.
"Yes," Shadi said, "It is an Ancient Egyptian legend. Once, long ago, when Egypt was two nations, Upper Egypt was ruled by a kind and wise Pharaoh, who wielded the power of the Saiful- Shahjahan - the Sword of The King - and Lower Egypt was ruled by a wicked King, who wielded the power of Saiful-Fathi - The Sword of The Conqueror. Both kings died in a great battle, and their swords, when they clashed, parted the skies, and dried the fertile land into desert. The power of these swords is not meant for the likes of mortal men. They can only be ruled by one powerful being, for they were forged of the gods, to rule over Egypt eternally. Their great power must not fall into the hands of those who would abuse it."
"And now one of them has," Yugi/Yami said, guessing what was to come. "Which one?"
"The Conqueror's Sword," Shadi answered. "It has fallen into the hands of the obscure sect of The Gravekeepers' Tribe."
"Gravekeepers?" Joey asked, "Oh no, you're talkin' Rare Hunters! I'm through with that! The last two times, I as nearly killed, and two were the creations of a demon."
"I know not of these events," Shadi said to Joey. Shadi rose to his feet, and said, "I only know that Egypt's need is dire. The Pharaoh must return to claim his throne."
"To claim his throne?!" Tea exclaimed.
"Yes," Shadi said, "The political situation in Egypt is ripe for the Pharaoh to take his throne. There is unrest in the land, and the people cry out for a strong leader. I fear that whoever controls the power of the two swords may try to seize power for himself."
"Alright then," Tristan said, "We hop to Egypt, kick some butt, put Yugi in charge, and be back in time for our math quiz Friday."
"I don't think it will be that simple," Yugi/Yami said.
"Yuge," Joey interjected, "You're forgettin' that we have a few 'special friends' who can help us."
"Friends?" Shadi asked.
------------------------------------------
"We're going WHERE?" Inu-yasha asked as they boarded a Kaiba Corp. Jet.
"We're going to Egypt to make Yugi king," Joey reiterated. "You don't pay attention real well, do ya, Dog-breath?"
"I know why we're going!" Inu-yasha yelled, "We gotta stop those Rare Hunters from getting hold of some stupid sword. But where are we going?"
"To Cairo Egypt," Kagome answered. She grabbed Inu-yasha's hand, and plopped his baseball cap on his head as she explained, "It's the capitol of Egypt, and where the main airport's at. From there, we take Jeeps to Geiza, and look around for the remains of Yami's tomb."
"I thought the squirt was Yami," Inu-yasha asked Yugi dirty looks.
"Yami in his PAST life," Kagome clarified, "And to do that, we have to talk to this Ishizu person."
"I really hate to bother her," Yugi said, "But she and Odion are the only people who can tell us about this group of Gravekeepers who took the Conqueror's Sword."
"As long as it doesn't take too long," Mai said from the tarmac. "Hey, you! be careful with that luggage!" she yelled and pointed to her forehead, "I've got my Eye on you! And Joey, I do not want to join the Mile High Club," she yelled up at her boyfriend, who blushed and groaned with disappointment.
"What is this 'Mile High Club'?" asked Miroku as he climbed up the ramp into the plane. Bakura leaned in and whispered the meaning into the monk's ear. "Oh my. Sango, would you perchance wish to-"
"If it has anything to do with you, then no" Sango answered. She grabbed Bakura's hand, and pulled him behind her into the plane and to their seats.
"I don't want to go in the giant metal bird!" Shippo cried, clinging to the tarmac.
"Shippo, it's perfectly safe!" Kagome said, yanking him up.
"No! no no no no no!! I'm scared!"
"Someone shut that little rat up before I throw him out a window," Kaiba said.
"You're only mean to him because you really like him," Serenity said. "Just like Inu-yasha does."
"We do not!" both the han-you and the millionaire shouted at once.
"These are the allies upon whom you rely, my Pharaoh?" Shadi asked, amazed.
"Yes," Yugi said, "We they're a little unconventional, but they get the job done."
"I fear your kingdom may be doomed, my lord."
Yugi sighed, "Yeah, you're probably right."
Soon, everyone was in their seats, the luggage was stowed away, the plane rose to the air. Kirara, in her pet carrier, mewed from airsickness, and pawed at the bars.
"Oh, my poor Kirara," Sango said, "Are you sure I can't let her out?"
"FAA regulations," Kaiba answered. "I'm pretty we're breaking a few laws having Inu-yasha and Shippo uncaged." Behind him, Shippo stood up in his seat, his index finger centimeters from Inu-yasha's arm.
"Don't touch me," Inu-yasha warned the kitsune.
"I'm not," Shippo said. He leaped up on the back of Inu-yasha's seat, and moved both his hands, index fingers pointed, around Inu-yasha's head, chanting "I'm not touching you! I'm not touching you, I'm... not... touching... YOU!"
"STOP NOT TOUCHING ME!!!" Inu-yasha bellowed at the fox.
"Okay!" Shippo said cheerfully, and beeped him on the nose. "Beeeeeeeeeeep!"
"You come here, you stinking, half pint, rabid squirrel!!" Inu-yasha shouted, reaching to strangle Shippo, but he was jerked back into his seat buy the still fastened seatbelt, which he didn't know how to open.
"MMMMM how 'bout a bite?" Shippo asked. He popped into a pink balloon and started gnawing at Inu-yasha's head. Then, he stopped, spit, and said, "Ewww, too stringy! How about I take a bite out of you?" he teased as he floated above Kaiba.
"I know how to open my seatbelt," Kaiba warned him. Shippo popped into his normal form, and pouted, "You're no fun," as he returned to his seat.
Meanwhile, Joey and Tristan were in the back, deadlocked in a struggle for the last pack of peanuts.
"Their mine, man!" Tristan insisted, getting Joey in a head lock, "Give 'em to me!"
"No way!" Joey argued, struggling, "You took the last bag!"
"Cause you ate most of 'em already!" Tristan countered. Joey got out of the lock, and twisted Tristan into the sleeper hold.
"I need more," Joey said, "I'm smaller than you."
"All passengers, please prepare for landing," the pilot announced over the intercom. "Fasten all seatbelts and return all tray tables to their upright position."
"Finally!" everyone sighed.
