Yu-Gi-Oh!: Dueling's Demise
NOTE: Yu-Gi-Oh! is the product of Kazuki Takahasi. I did not make the series (although I wish I did), so all credit to the franchise goes to him. Please support the official release of the series (i.e. GX, 5D's, Zexal, the original series, etc.)
Prologue: The Situation
To those of you who know what Yu-Gi-Oh/Duel Monsters is, you have most likely heard the story:about 3,000 years ago, the Pharaoh Atem was faced against the dark power of Zorc Necrophades. Atem and his allies defeated him, and the Pharaoh sealed the dark magic away within the Millennium Puzzle. 5,000 years later in modern times, a man named Solomon Muto found the puzzle within the Gold Sarcophagus and gave the puzzle to his grandson Yugi. The puzzle in pieces was solved by the child; after it was solved, Atem's spirit found itself living in Yugi's body. The ancient relic had forgotten his true name, so Yugi simply called him Yami.
Together, the two faced powerful forces – Maximillion Pegasus, the creator of the game whose defeat bestowed the title of "King of Games" to the duo: Marik Ishtar whose evil side controlled him only to be tricked into being sent to the Shadow Realm: Noah and Gozaburo Kaiba, the father and son related to Seto who were taken down by their own hubris: Dartz, previous ruler of the sunken city Atlantis who stole souls to empower the Great Leviathan: Zigfried Von Schroeder who tried taking over KaibaCorp with the help of his son: finally, Yami Bakura who lured Yugi and his friends into the Dark RPG, but fell even with the combined efforts of Zorc. The two's last duel would be against each other in the ceremonial duel, in which Yugi Muto was victorious. His victory led the Pharaoh back to the afterlife.
So what does this have to do with the actual tale? Well, there is something that many people don't know. After the release of Duel Monsters, the energies from duelists around the world fed a new world that would belong to the creatures, spells, and traps that assist them in battle. This new world made the monsters alive, and made the spells and traps real. But for people in the human world, like yourself who is most likely reading this, what would you think? I presume you would scream "Bullshit!", get off your computer, and go back to playing Call Of Duty 95: Modern Warfare Black Ghost Ops Return of the Silly Monkey. If you choose to leave, go right ahead.
…
They gone? Alright, I'd say that puts the audience to about 50 or so. For those of you who are willing to hear the story, I thank you for your willing to listen. Now, I know all of this because I am one of those monsters. In your world, I am known as the mighty Lightpulsar Dragon. In the world where the monsters are real, I am the leader of the Chaos Legion – Dragonic Division. Our world has always been slowly seeping into the quicksand of poverty. But now, it has been flailing around sinking ever so quickly into the bottom of the pit. We have been forced to call upon help we thought we never would have to do: call upon your world for help. Believe me, the threat is most likely something that your world is facing yourself. This will be the tale of our world at war. If you feel you cannot listen further, there's the door. If you still choose to listen, then listen to our world's plea. All we can say for our plea is one word: help.
