Chapter 2

Author's Notes: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! I do, however, own all non-franchised characters and the ideas of all the cards I made up for this series. As good as you might find some of them, I ask that you not take these ideas without my permission…I worked hard to make some of these cards…

I had been roaming Domino City on my bike for what seemed like ages now. I mean, he stands out like a sore thumb, what with his giant, colorful hair and all. One would think I'd be able to easily locate someone like that. However, I had no such luck.

I decided to stop at the corporation of a good friend of mine. Perhaps he'd be able to help me locate him.

"Excuse me, sir, I'm afraid this part of the building is for employees only, and—"

He was cut off by a figure that emerged from the door. "Greetings…Scott."

"Seto Kaiba…" I said, with a tone that showed respect to the man's reputation. He stood there, with his new white and black getup, his brother Mokuba standing next to him. "Despite all that's happened, it's good to see you once again…"

"Save it, Scott." he replied. "Your father has put my family through enough misery."

"Is that how you're going to address someone who had nothing to do with the events that took place during Duelist Kingdom?" I asked, annoyed with the fact that I was forced to remind him that I still put friendship over my father's then-twisted view of business.

"I suppose. You never even bat an eye to your father's crazy scheme to revive your mother from the dead."

"My family matters are beyond the point." I said. "My father's in critical condition; the doctors said that he's going to make it, but it will be a while before he'll be able to promote Duel Monsters tournaments again. Now…I need your help."

"I'm about to launch my own Duel Monsters tournament." he replied, ignoring my request for help. "I just have to put the finishing touches on it before I release the details to the public. Are you interested?"

"If it will get me a duel with Yugi, then fine." I said. "Anything to avenge my father…"

"Pegasus was a lunatic." he laughed. "But, I imagine you don't know or care about the fiasco that was Duelist Kingdom."

"You'd be correct." I said. "I don't know, nor do I care to know what happened on that island. This is strictly a duty I must fulfill to my father…"

"I was expecting that answer…" he replied. "However, I interrupted you. You said you wanted a favor? What is it?"

"I wish to find Yugi." I replied. "Where is he?"

He stood there silently for a moment. It was Mokuba who spoke up first. "Seto, we have to hurry, or we'll be late to the simulations to test your new card!"

"Hmm…Scott, how about I make you win the information?" He extended a strange bracelet on his arm that folded out. "Like it? It's my new Duel Disk technology."

"A challenge? Using your newest simulation technology?" I was intrigued by the offer. "How can I resist?"

"Here…" He handed me my very own Duel Disk. "We'll duel using my new rules system. We both start out with 4000 Life Points instead of 2000, and any monster that has 5 stars or more requires a sacrifice, with monsters of level 7 or higher requiring two sacrifices!"

I took my place an adequate distance away from him. "Got it."

"Duel!" we both shouted.

Scott: 4000 L.P.
Kaiba: 4000 L.P.
