First off, I'm really sorry for not posting on schedule, was down the entirety of the day. I posted this as soon as I could. I apologize again.
Ok, so crossover between Yu Gi Oh and Pokemon, My childhood is showing... Anyways, I don't think this story will be that successful, but heck, I want to write it. The story takes place just after battle city, which is my favorite place to start a Yu Gi Oh fic. The pokemon side of this uses the pokemon universe, but Ash's plot doesn't come into this. It's more like the pokemon game.
I do not own Pokemon or Yu-Gi-Oh. There. Disclaimers out of the way.

To Answer It's Call

"Great Job Yugi!" Tristan and Joey cried, running up to the boy. Mokuba gave him a slight cheer, but was careful not to over do it in front of his brother who was brooding over him. The rest of the gang moved towards the new champion and cheered for him, finally making Kaiba snap.
"Enough celebrating, this tournament is over. You all have one hour to get off the island before this place blows." He called, making them all halt in place. A few of them opened their mouths to say something but the earth trembled beneath them, silencing everyone momentarily.
"I thought you said we had an hour!" Joey cried, trying to steady himself and his sister.
"This isn't me." Kaiba said, thoroughly confused. A sudden flash of a warm pale purple light engulfed them and the last thing any of them heard was a faint noise that resembled a kitten's cry.
When Kaiba finally came to he was in a forest. He shot up and looked around, finding his little brother next to him and the rest of the group sprawled across the forest floor.
"Mokuba." He called, gently shaking the boy awake. He grumbled but sat up. Once he was sure Mokuba was alright, he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. "Grrr, no reception..." Some shifting grabbed his attention as the Wheeler girl stirred.
"What... happened?" She asked as she rose, looking around the area. She spotted Kaiba and looked at the boy who was still waking. Her eyes glazed over her unconscious friends and found her brother. "Joey! Joey wake up." She roused him and they went around waking the others up. Kaiba checked the area, looking for any sign of a path or town. There was nothing.
"Where the hell did you take us Kaiba!" Joey yelled, moving around the rest of them.
"I didn't take us anywhere, you mongrel. Did you really expect me to place myself this far out in the wilderness without any contacts or way to get back? I'm not a moron like you." He sneered, continuing to scan the forest. A rustling nearby grabbed everyone's attention and a light hum began to fill the trees around them.
"Wh-What is that?" Tea asked, looking around and backing towards the center of their clearing.
"Over there!" Yugi pointed out, pushing their collective attentions to a swarm of giant bees. The bees saw them as well and began swooping down on them. They ran for it, chased into a direction not of their choosing. The bees were relentless. Kaiba slowed his gate, falling to the back while everyone else scrambled to get away. He swatted at the creatures, knocking back two before catching up to the rest of them.
"Get in the water!" He called as they came to a river. Everyone dove in, dodging the bees and trying to get away. They swam downstream until the bees left and finally trudged out, soaked to the bone.
"What were those things?" Tea asked, completely out of breath. No one had ever seen anything like it before.
"We need to get out of the forest. Who knows what else is hiding in here." Yugi said, trying to look for an end to the forest's walls. Suddenly a screech notified them to something behind them. A large brown furry rat, ten times the size of any they had ever seen before stood rearing to attack. Before long, more scurried from the forest floor, gathering behind it and slowly advancing.
"I think runnin's the priority here Yug!" Joey shouted, leading the others in the opposite direction from the rats. They ran for over ten minutes, completely exhausted from the chases and came to the end of the forest. They ran an extra distance from the forest into the field in front of them before stopping and collapsing.
"What's with the animals here! They're all freakishly huge!" Joey shouted before pausing and the color drained from his face. "You don't think... Giants live here do you?" He glanced between them all worriedly.
"You're an idiot." Kaiba said plainly and Joey jumped up, pointing a finger at him.
"Hey! It's a legitimate concern!" Kaiba rolled his eyes and turned towards the forest. The large rats had followed them out of the forest, but were now turning and heading back.
"Hey, What are you doing here?" A voice called, pulling their attention to a young boy. "Don't you know it's dangerous to go off the path without at least one pokemon to protect you?" He wore thick glasses, a khaki shirt and khaki shorts.
"Pokemon?" Most of the group asked in unison.
"Uh... yeah... The creatures in the woods and grass and... everywhere..." He said confusedly. He looked across the group as if they were aliens.
"We're not from around here." Yugi tried, but continued to get the same looks.
"But... Pokemon live everywhere. There's no place that they aren't." The boy said. The group looked between them.
"Where is it safe?" Kaiba finally said, sick of waiting for them to think of something.
"Well, Pallet town is just south of here. If you don't know about pokemon, Professor Oak has a research center there." He said, starting off in a direction and waving them to follow. There was a small village just past the field and they could see a large building just on the edge of it that they presumed was the research center.
"Hello, Simon, who are your friends?" The aging man asked with a smile, looking over the group.
"They say they're not from around here. They don't seem to know what pokemon are either." The boy said incredulously.
"Don't know what pokemon are? You must be from a distant land indeed!" Professor Oak exclaimed. "To have never heard of pokemon... Well, I guess I can help you. Pokemon are the creatures that inhabit this place other than humans. We train them, breed them and on occasion, battle them to show one's strength, character, and strategic prowess. They can be the most loving of friends and the most powerful allies.
"They come in all shapes and sizes and have a wide range of powers and specialties. Normally when someone wants to train a pokemon, they come to me and I give them their first to train with. Unfortunately you came out of the blue and I didn't have time to contact the breeders that would give me the starter pokemon for you, so you may have to go out and find them yourself. It's much more difficult that way.
"What I can do for you, though is give you pokeballs and a special belt to hold them." He showed them a container of small balls with a diameter of about a half dollar.
"What are they for?" Tea picked one up and looked at it closer, but jumped back and dropped it as it grew in her hand.
"Heh, they're for catching the pokemon. All you need to do is throw the ball at it. The button here will glow red as the pokemon struggles to break free, and when it turns white again, the pokemon is yours. I suggest you make friends with the pokemon first, as they can break out of the pokeball if they struggle too much and it's much more difficult to train them if they don't like you to start with." He said, clicking the little button and returning it to it's smaller size.
"Sounds... kinda fun." Joey said taking one of the balls and making it grow and shrink over and over.
"It's not a toy." Professor Oak said, taking it away. "Raising and training a pokemon is a big responsibility. They are the most loyal creatures if you treat them with kindness and respect. If you just want to fight them and overwork them, they'll stop listening to you, or even worse, turn on you." He said sternly. "I'm not going to give these tools to someone who would abuse their pokemon."
"We would never do that!" Yugi cried. The rest of the group shook their heads in agreement as Mokuba glanced up at his brother who was watching and taking in all the information. Professor Oak smiled.
"I was hoping you would say that." He passed out six of the balls and a belt to each of them. They noted the belts had six slots on them, perfectly fit to hold the small contraptions. "You can keep up to six pokemon on you at any time. If you want to catch more, there are shops that sell pokeballs, and your extra pokemon will be sent to me here. You can use the PC at any pokecenter to switch out your pokemon at any time. You're also going to need identification. I don't have any pokedex's anymore, but I do have these travel ID's." He passed out the small silver colored contraptions. "Just enter your name and information during the set up process and you will be good to go."
After a brief explanation of what the pokecenters were and what a pokedex was, the group filled in their ID's and Professor Oak bid them farewell
"So... how do we get home?" Mokuba asked turning up to Kaiba.
"I'm not even sure if we're in the right world. They don't seem to be aware of a place without pokemon, so I doubt they'll be of any help to us. We need to find someone who can help. If that means playing their little game, then so be it. I'm always up for a challenge." He said fingering one of the pokeballs on his belt. The rest of the group nodded and glanced around town.
"So... where do we start?" Mai asked.
"You people can go anywhere you want. I've got a bone to pick with some bees." Kaiba said, starting for the forest.
"We should all probably stick together." Yugi said and they all jogged to catch up with him. He strolled boldly back into the forest, ready for anything now, and sought out anything that moved. He continued deeper into the forest when something caught his foot. He fell face first into the ground and turned to glare at what tripped him. A vine moved from his ankle and traveled the length of him to grab his arm as another went for his other leg.
"What the-" and then he saw it. A bundle of vines moving and squirming.
"Is that-" Yugi started but was cut off as another creature appeared, and this one was a sight to see. A large green creature with wings and two scythes as hands. The creature sliced forth, slashing at a vine, then flew towards the small bundle. Before long there were dozens of the bladed creatures, flying through the forest. "Get away from them, they're too dangerous!" Everyone scattered, being chased in random directions as six or seven creatures with razor sharp arms swung at them.
Finally safe from the creatures, Kaiba looked up at whoever had followed him. Just one girl panted beside him. The Wheeler girl. Great... but where was Mokuba? He could have sworn Mokuba was running in the same direction as him, so... were was he?
"We need to find the others." She said while looking around the forest. He couldn't agree more. He started back the way they were chased but something tugged on his arm. "We don't know if it's safe yet." She said as he looked back at her. He pulled his arm from her grip and glared at her.
"My little brother is out there. You stay if you want." He knew she wouldn't. She was weak. She needed him.
"You cant help him if you're hurt." She retorted, making him pause. Maybe there was an easier way. A less risky way... He started again, only heading in a slightly different direction.
"I'm going around. We'll meet up at the same place but we wont be traveling through the area they chased us through." He explained, certain she had no clue of his plan. She quietly followed along, which put him at ease. He was afraid she would be as loud as her brother. They traveled westward until they reached a creek, then followed it north.
"Char!" Serenity jumped up, bumping into Kaiba who stopped and they both turned to see three lizard like creatures by the edge of the water. There was one small one and two larger ones. The small one was being pushed towards the water by one of the larger ones while the other large one yawned and ignored them. Serenity noticed the flame on the end of their tails and how the small one cried and struggled to keep it's tail out of the water.
"Hey! Stop that!" She cried, rushing forward. She ran through the small creek and hugged the small one, shielding it from the larger lizard. A raised claw told her that it probably wasn't the best idea to come between the pokemon. Kaiba sighed as he strode over and placed himself in front of Serenity, staring menacingly at the creature. It froze, terrified of this new human's appearance and backed away, scampering into a small cave they hadn't seen before. The other larger lizard stood, watching Kaiba intently.
"Come on, we don't have time to waste on tiny lizards." He called, not waiting to see if she would actually follow. She smiled at the little one and gave it a short hug before rising and continuing behind the CEO.
They had to find their friends. This world was different. Different and dangerous.
