All right! I am finally going to post my duel monster fic! This has no Yugi and Company in it, just totally and completely about duel monsters only.

This is actually the second YUGIOH fic I have written after I finished Midnight Water Romance, I had an epiphany when I watched the Yugi's duel with Pandora and saw the Dark Magician Girl appear at the end. I just have to say this; Dark

Magician is so CUTE and HANDSOME! I practically drooled when I saw his beautiful violet eyes.

OK! Enough of my obsession.

Here's the summary: The Dark Magician is known as the most powerful monster in the Shadow Realm, but what happens when the council brings in a new partner for him, will sparks fly? And what secrets is this new partner hiding?

Disclaimer: I do not yugioh-related though I wish had Dark magician *drool* but I do own any new monsters appear in these and later chapters.

Dangerous and Magical

Chapter 1: Meetings, Insults, and an Announcement

The Dark Magician standing proud had just returned to his home of the Land of Shadows. He had just successfully completed his mission of making the Land of Fire join his clans' alliance. As the dark magician walked down the

crowded street of monsters, all of who have come to congratulate him, for he was the greatest shadow monster in the land. He was respected by all monsters and adored by all female monsters.

Mace had just pushed himself away from the crowd, he didn't care about them; all he could think of was going home and laying his tired self down. But Mace had the feeling he wouldn't be able to have that anytime soon. For as he turned another corner, a young girl came running up to him, seemingly out of breath. It was the dark magician girl. Her name was Catalina. She was his oh, so young apprentice who was a bit too eccentric and hyper for him to handle sometimes.

"Mace, Master! I'm so glad I found you!" Catalina yelled as she approached him.

"What is now?" yawned a tired Dark Magician.

"The high council wishes to speak with you about something important. Come on! We must hurry, the council is growing impatient." Urged Catalina, tugging at her master's arm.

"So what?" said Mace solemnly.

"Master!"

"Sorry Catalina, I'm coming." Sighed the dark magician.

So reluctantly, Mace followed Catalina. All the while, he wishing he was at home sleeping and also wishing his young apprentice had not bothered him. Before Mace knew they were at the high council temple, where she then led him to a dark room where a large table was placed in the middle, and around it sat

three figures.

At the head of the table, was an elderly man wearing long royal purple garments and holding a long emerald, wooden staff; he was known as the Dark-robed sage, the oldest and wisest of all in the Land of Shadows. To his left was the infamous Black Luster Soldier, named David. And to the sage's right, sat Robert, the Magician of Black Chaos, the second-best warrior in the land of shadows, next to Mace.

Mace bowed to Master Sage, but smirked when his violet gaze fell upon Robert. He couldn't help but make a comment.

"Hello, long time no see, Bobby!"

Mace emphasized the nickname because he knew it drove Robert nuts.

Robert cringed, "That's Robert to you, Dark Magician! Be serious, for once!"

"Calm down, Robert, and sit down so we can finish this meeting quickly." Said David, trying not to get in the middle.

"Oh, shut up David! You just want to get out of here so you can kill more dragons! Isn't that right?" snapped Mace with sarcasm in every word.

"Are you threatening me, Mace?" shouted David.

Standing up, the Black Luster Soldier raised his sword and pointed it directly at Mace, who just stepped back and raised his as well. By now all three warriors had their staffs and sword, all glowing bright and ready to launch attacks.

Suddenly the light from each of the weapons died down, and the attacks faded. All three of warriors had confused looks on their faces. Just then, a booming came from behind them.

"That will be enough! I will not have this meeting turned a war zone!"

They turned around to see the Dark-robed sage looking very stern from behind his long gray beard. His green staff glowed and they knew it was absorbing all their attacks.

"Now sit down so we can continue with our business."

"Yes, Master." All said in unison.

"First of all, I would like to congratulate you, Mace, on your recent victory in the Fire lands. I am sure they will be fine allies to us."

"Thank you, Master."

"Now then," said Master Sage sounding more serious. "Recently, I have been communicating with the Mistress in the Valley of Light and we have foreseen

great a evil that is threatening their land and we fear that evil will continue to spread to all lands including ours. We believe that if we form a partnership with their best warrior and ours, the combined strengths will hopefully be enough to stop this evil."

"And I assume I am the one you are planning to pair up." Growled Mace glaring at his Master.

"In fact, yes, Dark Magician." Master Sage stared at Mace making him drop his glare.

"So, who is this supposed 'new' partner? Where is this guy?" Questioned Mace curiously.

Master Sage chuckled lightly. "My dear Dark Magician, first of all the new arrival is here now, and second of all HER name is Krystal, the White Magician (2200/2500)."

"What?!" shouted the Dark Magician in disgust. "I can't believe that you are pairing up ME, the most powerful monster warrior in the Land of Shadows, with a lowly female from the Valley of Light!"

"Calm down Mace, the White Magician came very highly recommended from my friend, the White-robed sage, the Mistress of the Valley of Light. Krystal is known as the most powerful warrior in the Valley. I think the two of you will make a fine partnership." Said Master Sage as Mace turned his back, crossing his arms, and slipping into a darkened corner. Everyone else in the room were trying to hold back their laughter at the thought of the infamous 'I need no one' Dark Magician having to fight along side a female light warrior.

Suddenly, a black curtain flew open, revealing a bright white light

enveloping the entire room, except a certain dark corner...

Well how do you people like this story? Review and tell me if you want me to continue. This will have some angst/drama/action in this story and there WILL be some romance later on, for now Angst and Drama are the two main factors.

This just a warning but the story I feel is going to get even more angsty as it continues.

Author Note: About the White-Robed Sage (she will appear in chapter 2), she is just like the Dark-Robed Sage, in the case that she is who White Magician transforms into when using the Time Wizard.

In my opinion this is going to be my greatest story written since Midnight Water Romance and Faith in a Spirit.
