Chapter 1:
It's a wonderful day at Duelist Kingdom. The sky is clear and the sun is bright, many duelists are spread out throughout the island to find more duelists to duel to get ten star chips to gain entry to Maximillian Pegasus' castle.
A girl with sixteen years of age dashed through a forest pathway. Her long golden hair was flowing in the wind as she dashed through the pathway while her emerald eyes scanned for any available duelists. A boy was in front of her, searching for duelists and she bumped into him. The boy was seventeen years old and had chocolate brown eyes and a long black ponytail with some hair covering his eye.
"Sorry about that, I was searching for some duels and I didn't see you," said the girl.
"It's alright, there sometimes that people are in a rush and they don't know what they're doing." replied the boy. "So, why are you in that such of a rush?"
"Well..." the girl began as she took out a card that showed a lavish room on it, "According to this card, the first duelist who gets to the castle gets a luxurious room and a nice bubble bath as their reward."
"You have today and tomorrow to get ten star chips to get to the castle," said the boy.
"I wanted to get there by tonight because tomorrow morning, most of the participants will be out of the competition." Explained the girl.
"Well, if you want, you can challenge me to a duel." Replied the boy.
"Okay!" exclaimed the girl with excitement. "Before we duel, we'll do our introductions, my name is Alana, and your name is...?"
"My name is Kiro." answered the boy. "Let's find a nearby dueling arena so we can start our duel."
After they found a nearby dueling arena, Kiro and Alana wagered three star chips each because both have seven star chips. The duel lasted for an hour and a half, and Alana won all of her ten star chips to gain entry to the castle. Kiro congratulated her and she thanked her opponent for his praises.
After Alana jogged back to the castle and climbed its very long stairway to the castle's doorway. The sky went from a sky blue to the colors of pink, orange, and red as the sun began to set. As she walks towards to the door, she saw a bodyguard named Kimo guarding the door only to let duelists who has ten star chips to enter.
"Excuse me miss, before you can enter to Pegasus' castle, you have ten star chips with you as proof." informed Kimo.
"You don't have to worry about that," said Alana proudly as she lifted up her hand that showed ten star chips on her dueling glove, "I've already got all of my ten star chips to get in."
"Since you have ten star chips you are qualified to not only to enter the castle but also enter to the Duelist Kingdom Finals," announced Kimo. "You may enter the castle."
"Thank you." said Alana politely as she enters the castle.
As she walks inside the castle, another bodyguard with his hair and moustache shares the same color that goes by the name of Croquet walks up to her to greet her.
"Greetings duelist, I am Croquet, Chief Tournament Liaison." introduced Croquet, "I congratulate you for being the first duelist to enter Pegasus' castle."
"As being the first duelist to be here, you have the privilege to a lavish room that has the most luxurious bathroom to have your bubble bath in." continued Croquet, "Now would you please follow me, I will lead you to your room."
Without hesitation, Alana followed him to her room. When they reached to the destination, she opened the door and she is amazed at what she saw in her bedroom. The room had a beautiful cerulean canopy bed with a bookcase and nightstand made from pure and polished mahogany wood with lovely paintings of beaches. It had a refrigerator that has snacks, different kinds of soda, and bottles of water inside. Also, it had a wonderful balcony to go outside to see the breath taking view of both the sunset and the ocean.
"This room is more amazing than that what I saw on a card that comes with the invitation to the Duelist Kingdom Tournament!" She said to Croquet with complete excitement.
"If you think that's breath taking, you would be awe-struck when see the bathroom." Croquet told her as he opened the bathroom door. Alana steps inside the bathroom and she's awe-struck as she looked into the bathroom.
The floor of the bathroom is made from marble. It has an ocean theme and a mural of water, fish, and sea monster that is shown above and the ocean on three sides of the bathroom. She saw an extravagant Water Omonics fountain in the center, a bath tub that's in a form of an open calm or oyster shell, a sink, a toilet and an elegant mural of the sky that has wind and winged-beast type duel monsters on the ceiling.
"I'm certain you love what you saw in the bathroom?" Asked the Chief Tournament Liaison.
"Love what I saw in the bathroom? I adore it!" exclaimed Alana as she was filled with overwhelming excitement.
"This bathroom is designed by the host of Duelist Kingdom Tournament Maximillian Pegasus himself." Said Croquet proudly. "Please enjoy this once in a lifetime stay at your new room.
"Thanks and I will enjoy this opportunity." She informed to Croquet.
"Dinner will be ready momentarily." Inform Croquet as left the room.
With Croquet gone, Alana hopped onto her bed, grab her cell phone and call her legal guardian about her great accomplishment.
Outside of Pegasus' castle, a man with twenty-six years of age was lying under a shady tree. He has the same hair color as Alana, he sat up to stretch his arms and back and took off his sunglasses to rub his sapphire eyes. He wears a bandana that looks like the American flag, a red t-shirt, a leather vest, khaki jeans, brown hiking boots that goes up to his knees, a golden cross pendant with a tan leather cord around his neck, and a light gray wristband on each wrist. Just when he is putting on his sunglasses, he heard his cell phone ringing. He put his sunglasses on his head and got his cell phone out from his jeans pocket to answer the phone call.
"This is Bandit Keith, who's calling?" asked the man.
"Hello, Keith?" asked Alana.
With excitement to hear his little sister on his got to his feet and stepped out of the shade to get a good phone reception.
"Alana, I am so glad that you called me," Keith said to her on the phone, "Where are you, sis?"
"I'm inside of my amazing room at Pegasus' castle big brother," she said proudly to her older sibling.
"You made it to the castle, that's great Alana!" Keith said in a joyful tone on his phone. "So, what's your bedroom look like in there?"
Alana gave her brother every bit of detail of bedroom from the bookcase to the balcony. Just when she is giving Keith details to the bathroom, she heard the door knocking and cover the part of the phone that she talks to with her hand so she won't accidentally talk into it while she talk to the person who knocked on her door.
"Who is it?" Alana asked as she has both of her eyes on the door.
The door creaked open as Croquet entered her room.
"Alana, my sincere apologies for intruding you, but I must inform you that dinner is going to be ready shortly." Croquet informs her.
"Sorry for cutting our time short but I have to go dinner soon," said Alana with disappointment.
"No problem," Keith said, "How about you show me your bathroom?"
"That's a great idea big brother!" Alana replied with enthusiasm. "See you tomorrow when you get to the castle?"
"Sure thing. See you tomorrow." Keith said on the phone.
"Goodnight big brother see you in the morning." Said Alana before she turns off her phone.
"Me too, bye." Keith ended and turns off his cell phone.
He put his cell phone away in his jeans pocket and lay down under a shady tree with a contented smile on his face.
After Alana had her dinner in the dining hall, she went back to her room to take her bubble bath. She turned on the warm water on to fill the bathtub up as she got ready for her well deserved reward that she worked hard for. She found three scented bubble bath formulas. The first bottle she smelled had a lovely combination a peppermint and jasmine flower. The second bottle had a pine tree scent in it. The final scent she smelled had her favorite scent, which was based on summer fragrances. She took the final bottle and poured the bubble bath formula in the warm water. She turned of the water and took off her clothes to get herself ready to take her bubble bath. After fifteen seconds, she got in to the tub, she felt so relaxed that she sunk herself up to her head. After thirty minutes passed, she got out of the tub to dry herself off and get into her clothes. She brushed her hair with the brush that she had packed in her backpack and got under her covers of her bed to get some rest for the next day.
