Yugioh War of the Roses

Chapter Two: Invitations

Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh. Sakira, Kaona, and Robin are my cousin's,
but Artemis Entrari is MINE!!! So no steal!!!

In the streets of Los Angeles a duel was taking place. A match between Bandit Keith and a boy named Jason Fujiwara. The score stood, J:1200 BK:2400 "Time to finish you off kid." Said Bandit Keith. "Metal Zoa, attack his Witch of the Black Forest!"

"I don't think so Keith," said Jason. "I'll activate Graverobber! And I'll use it to steal your Skull Dice!" The die was rolled, and landed on a 4.

"No! Now my Metal Zoa only has 800 attack points!" cried Keith, terror stricken.

"And now I'll use my face down card, Graceful Dice!" said Fujiwara. 'You've got mail.you've got mail..'

"Awww maaan!" yelled Jason. "Stupid mini computer!" He then produced a palm pilot sized laptop and checked his mail.

"Junk, junk,junk,bill,bill,bill,jun- what the." he said as he opened up an e-mail that was labeled with a rose. "Alright." said Jason in awe as he read. "Sorry Keith but I gotta go!"

"Get back here you punk!!" yelled Keith. Little did he know that he too would soon receive a similar message.

In downtown Domino, Seto Kaiba was working on his computer.

'If these stupid e-mails would just stop coming in every FIVE seconds I could have some peace.' Thought Kaiba. 'Hey, they've stopped coming! Domino beach, here I come!'

Computer: You've got mail! ^______________________________^

"#@$^(&*#%#!!!!!" yelled Kaiba outloud. To make matters even more embarrassing, the window was open, and so was the P. A. system. Kaiba then realized how loud he had yelled when birds at the bottom of the tower (He's on the 50th floor.) flew away in fright.

"Ohhhhh.sweet mother of pearl." Said Kaiba, his ears burning red. Seconds later, Mokuba ran in the room.

"Seto!" he yelled. "Did you just feel that small earthquake? It shook the laboratories!"

"Uhhh." said Kaiba, his ears so red that they rivaled Chile peppers. "No Mokuba, I didn't feel a thing."

"Mmmm." said Mokuba. "Oh yeah, I almost forgot!"

"If Old Man Jenkins has A: Been eaten by the mutated sea horse. B: Gotten himself trapped in the Phone Booth/Airbag. C: Ejected himself out the window, or, D: Caused yet another lab fire, I don't want to hear it!!!" yelled Kaiba.

Mokuba stared. "Actually, you got mail."

"GAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!" yelled Kaiba like a wounded beast. "Enough with the ****ing mail!!! Die Mokuba, DIE!!!!!" Kaiba then snatched the letter out of his brothers hand, and threw Mokuba out the window.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" screamed Mokuba as he fell fifty stories. SPLAT!!!

"OUUUUUUCH." Said Mokuba in a deep slow voice unlike his own.

"NOW!" yelled Kaiba, drool coming out of his mouth. "To destroy you evil letter. I shall no longer be plagued by mail!!! Muwahahahaha!!! What?" Kaiba had turned the letter over and saw that it read: You're Invited!

"What's this?" said Kaiba to himself as he opened the letter and read it. "Excellent.excellent, this is just the type of thing I've been wanting to see."

Edinburgh, Scotland: Artemis Entrari was bored. Sure he liked rainy days in Scotland just as much at the next guy, but there was nothing to do. His computer was off thanks to the weather. (As was every other electronic device that required a socket.)Which meant he couldn't send the e-mail he had written to his cousin Bakura. Then suddenly his butler came into his study.

"Master Artemis, the mail for you sir." Said the butler, handing his unusually dull master a stack of letters.

"Thanks James." Said Artemis.

"Would you like me to make you some tea sire?" asked the butler.

"Yes please," said Artemis. "You're a life saver James, you really are."

"Let's see here," said Artemis opening the first letter. "Oh what does the homeowners society want from me now. Junk!" He opened the second letter. "Whoopee, I scheduled to have my teeth cleaned next month. Trash!" And the third. "No, I don't wish to invest in the that evil gerber grow up plan.DIE gerber baby, DIE!!!" And the fourth. "Blah blah blah." And the fifth. "DuN duN DUN!" And the, oh why do I bother?

Soon Artemis was asleep. (The tea was what really did it, not the mail.) RING RING!!!

"HABLOOHAH!!" yelled Artemis. It took the sixteen year old genius, who mastered the works of Bach, Beetoven, Motzart, Andrew Lloyd Webber, etc. in four hours, about fifteen minutes to find out where the noise was coming from.

"Stupid phone," muttered Artemis, answering it. "Hello.AAAAAA!!! Get away from me you evil TELEMARKETER!!!!"

Finally, Artemis read the seventh, and last letter. "An invitation.to a duel monsters tournament! YES!!! Oh, look, there's a list of the other duelists. Yuugi, Bakura, Jounouchi, Kaiba.oh no!" yelled Artemis in horror.

"Of all people," began Artemis. "Why did the host invite HER!!!"

Robin Hunter entered her house. Her two Yamis (Now separated from her.) Sakira and Kaona were asleep on the couch.

"Oh," said Sakira sleepily, flicking some hair out of her face. "Hi Robin. Did you have a good day at scho-THUD!

Robin turned around and saw that her Yami had fallen off the couch in mid sentence, and fallen asleep again. She then prodded her Yamis, to make sure they were alive, and went to check the mail. There was only one thing there. A small white envelope with a rose-shaped sticker on it.

"Oh look," said Robin. "A letter.an invitation to a duel monsters tournament! Yes! And a list of all the other duelists.hmmm.hmmm.hmmm.oh no!"

"Of all people," began Robin. "Why did the host invite HIM!!!"

Author's note: So now you've met some of the duelists in the tournament. In chapter three, the tournament starts and the first duel begins! (I'm thinking of changing the genre from Action/adventure to action/adventure/humor.)
