Suddenly the doorbell started to ring.

"Oh, I'll get it." Nanako said happily opening the door.

"Hello, is your brother home?" Fuuka asked politely.

"You know big bro, is he your friend?" Nanako asked.

"Oh, is Mitsuru-san waiting for me?" Yu asked calmly.

"We just arrived and she asked me to come get you." Fuuka said calmly. "Is everything ready?"

"Yeah, thanks." Yu said. "I'll see you guys after the tournament."

"Ok, do your best big bro." Nanako said with a smile.

"Just relax and have fun, we'll be waiting to hear about it." Dojima said calmly.

"Right." Yu said before walking out with Fuuka.

"Narukami, Aigis told us that you have something prepared for the competition." Mitsuru said calmly. "I should warn you that shadow activity on the island has increased recently."

"I'm not surprised, do we know anything at all about the shadows?" Yu asked picking up his duel glove. (1)

"All we know so far is that the shadows are originating from Pegasus himself." Yukari said.

"That's no surprise, the guy's a weirdo." Kanji said calmly.

"Kanji-kun, keep in mind that he is hosting this competition." Naoto said. "It wouldn't do us any favors to insult him prior to dealing with the shadow situation."

"She's right, we can deal with Pegasus when the time comes." Junpei said with a smirk. "I'm more interested in the island, relaxing casual mission instead of a desperate fight in an hour or against you guys, count me in."

"It's not relaxing, things are worse than before remember?" Yosuke asked irritably.

"The island is in sight, we should arrive in a matter of minutes." Aigis said calmly.

"Nice, this is going to be awesome." Chie said confidently.

"Oh man, what kind of parade is this?" asked a boy in a red hat and green jacket.

"I don't know, but whatever it is Rex it's certainly not amusing." said a boy with huge glasses and an insect shirt.

"Well whatever happens we'll be the ones to take on Pegasus and Kaiba, isn't that right Weevil." Rex said with a smirk.

"Do not underestimate us, this competition will likely end with the victory of one of our teams." Aigis said calmly.

"You must be dreaming, you're looking at the top two duelists at the Japanese National Championship." Rex said. "Anyone who duels us is asking for a humiliating defeat."

"Are you certain, perhaps you'd like to prove that once things begin." Mitsuru said. "Amagi, are you willing to help me teach these two a lesson?"

"What kind of name is Amagi?" Weevil asked.

"Yukiko Amagi, and we're going to beat you." Yukiko said confidently just before Pegasus stepped out onto the balcony of his castle.

"Welcome duelists of all ages, allow me to introduce myself, I am Maximillion Pegasus, the creator of duel monsters." Pegasus said elegantly. "You've all come for a new duel monsters tag team tournament and a chance to win the title of king of games. Now every competitor has received a dueling gauntlet along with two star chips, these are your proof of entrance in the tournament."

"So that's what these slots are for, so we must need ten to get to Pegasus." Yu said calmly.

"It would appear so, we should work to get them as quickly as possible." Aigis said while putting her star chips into her gauntlet.

"Now then, there are quite a few new rules in this tournament, but rather than tell you why don't you all find them out for yourselves." Pegasus said excitedly. "Now once the fireworks end the tournament will officially begin."

With those words a massive display of fireworks started going off.

"He's kind of dramatic isn't he?" Rise asked.

"Hey, I don't remember seeing you guys on the boat. The name's Joey Wheeler." said a blond boy.

"I'm Yugi Moto, it's nice to meet you." said a boy with a golden pendant around his neck.

"It's a pleasure to meet you as well, I am Mitsuru Kirijo." Mitsuru said politely. "This is Aigis, Yukari Takeba, Junpei Iori, Fuuka Yamagishi, Akihiko Sanada, Yu Narukami, Yosuke Hanamura, Chie Satonaka, Yukiko Amagi, Rise Kujikawa, Kanji Tatsumi, Naoto Shirogane, and Teddie."

"It's nice to meet you both." Fuuka said politely.

"You might want to get to know each other quickly, because once the tournament begins you'll be wiped out by our team." Weevil said with a smirk.

"That's quite enough out of you." Mitsuru said just as the fireworks ended. "It's time to begin the execution."

"The one's going extinct are you two." Rex said just as a massive stadium rose up out of the ground.

"Well, it seems the first match is about to get underway." Pegasus said calmly. "I wish both teams the best of luck, and I look forward to seeing all of the wonderful duels in this tournament."

As he said that, Pegasus turned and walked back into his castle.

"We'll be getting to Pegasus soon enough, so ladies last chance to give up." Weevil said calmly.

"We aren't quitting, the only thing we're going to do is take you two down." Yukiko said confidently.

"Well said Amagi, now then prepare yourselves." Mitsuru said.

"Duel." said Rex, Weevil, Mitsuru, and Yukiko simultaneously.

Weevil/Rex 4000 Mitsuru/Yukiko 4000: "Ladies first, so I'll set two cards and summon Flame Sparrow in attack mode." Yukiko said. "That ends my turn."

"That monster only has 400 attack points, it's no match for what I have planned." Rex said. "I summon my Megazowler in attack mode and play one facedown card, now I attack your monster."

"I play Flame Sparrow's ability." Yukiko said. "I can negate your attack, switch him into defense mode, and deal 200 points of damage."

"I guess I underestimated you, you're a bit better than I thought." Rex said. "I end my move."

Weevil/Rex 3800 Mitsuru/Yukiko 4000: "It's my turn, so I'll call my Frozen Wolf in attack mode, and his effect reduces your monster's points by 500, now attack." Mitsuru said. "I end my move with one facedown card."

(Duelist Kingdom has started and the first duel is underway. Next chapter Yukiko and Mitsuru will continue their duel with Rex and Weevil. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)

(1) (Mitsuru had the duel gauntlets and star chips delivered to her home, when Yu got onto the helicopter everything was already set up.)
