A little faith will bring your soul to heaven; A great faith will bring heaven to your soul.
-Charles Spurgeon


"Kaiba? Seto Kaiba?" Tea asked with shock. "What does he want?"

"What else." Yugi said with a sigh.

"Aw come on Kaiba! I swear! We get home for one day and he just has to ask. What a chump." Joey said as he slumped in his chair. Ketchup on his face from his hamburger.

"What are you going to do?" Rebecca asked out of concern of what Yugi wanted.

Yugi gave out another sigh. "I haven't picked up my duel disk since college started. I'm probably rusty. But…will that stop Kaiba? I guess…I'm gonna say yes."

Yugi's grandpa nodded his head, obliviously agreeing wit his choice.

"Do you wanna duel me first? Ya know…to sharpen up?" Joey offered, whipping the ketchup from his face to his arm.

"Nah. I think I'll be fine."

"But Kaiba might have been practicing." Tea urged.

"I'm not the only one with a life. He has a huge business to run."

"That's true." Yugi's grandpa said, clearing his throat. "Kaiba Corp is the number one gaming corporations by far. Everyone uses their inventions."

"There you go. Now tell me, how much time does a guy who runs that thing have time to practice playing a game?"

Everyone thought for a moment.

"But…remember when Mokuba told us that they test their new dueling disks that they make? What if Kaiba uses that as practice?" Tea asked, thinking out loud.

Yugi smiled. "I hope I'm smarter then a machine."

Everyone laughed.

"No doubt! Yugi will win!" Rebecca said, putting her arm straight in the air to show her excitement.

"Right!" Tristan said loudly.

"We're right behind ya!" Joey encouraged.

"Thanks guys." Yugi said, smiling.

--- NEXT DAY! ---

Yugi woke up to his alarm clock beeping. It was nine thirty. Sunday.

He gave out a big bear yawn, and screeched his arms while sitting up in bed.

"Woah…nine thirty. I have been sleeping through my alarm for thirty minutes…crap."

Yugi slowly slugged out of bed, taking covers with him.

He pulled them until he came to his still unpacked duffle bag of his cloths. He pulled out a black t-shirt with his blue jeans.

"Haven't worn this in a while…" He mumbled to himself.

He quickly got dressed and went into the bathroom. (Must I describe what he did in there?) After about five minutes or so he walked out and walked to the refrigerator.

He pulled out the carton of milk and opened it. Lifting it to his chin, he drank a couple of big gulps and put it back.

He then shut the refrigerator door and searched the cabinets to find a granola bar. Popping that into his mouth, he went back into his room.

He looked around, and then went to his small closet. Pulling the door back, he got on his tippy toes to reach the top shelve. He then searched around with his hand until he found it.

His duel disk.

He pulled it down, nearly falling backwards from reaching that high. He had grown in height, but he was still no taller then Atem was.

He walked over to put it on his bed, but then realized that he never even made his bed.

He quickly put his old partner on the floor and made his bed. Wasn't the best job, but he didn't want to take too long.

He then put the duel disk on the bed, just after blowing on it to clear the dust.

He then pulled out his deck, sat on the bed, and took a trip down memory lane.

Each card that he looked at he could think of a story for it.

Then he reached…Dark Magician. His old pal. They had been through a lot together…with the Pharaoh.

He sighed, shaking his head. "Now is not the time…" He thought to himself.

He continued looking, thinking of all the great times they had together.

Back then…when they were only sixteen. When he was still so short…when Joey still got all F's (even though he just barely made it through college)…when Tristan had a clean shave…when Tea had short hair…when…he had…the puzzle. How it changed his life. From a loser to the number one duelist that everyone wanted to be. He was now through college.

Where would life take him next?

He put his hand on his deck…Only fate knows.

He replaced the deck into his duel disk.

"Now…it's time." He thought as he picked up his duel disk.

He walked out and grabbed his keys, shoving them in his back pocket as he walked out the door, locking it behind him.

He then started to walk down the stairs of the apartments. In only a matter of minutes, he was at the gates of his apartments.

He stared down at his duel disk that he had been carrying.

This is it… He slowly shoved the disk onto his arm. Wow…it's been so long since I have worn this…!

He looked up at the blue sky. "It's time…to duel!"
