Welcome to the third chapter in the Millennium Saga (technically the fourth since the first chapter was split into two). The next two chapters will be based on the 9th and 10th chapters of the manga and episode 3 of Season 0. Now remember I do not own either King of the Hill or Yu-Gi-Oh!, the characters that can't be traced back to either show belong to me. Examples Jade LaRue, Sarah Argentina, Jason Lamar, and the character who making their debut in this story and filling in the role of Seto Kaiba, the rival of Yugi Muto in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Series. Enjoy.


This chapter begins not in Arlen but in Belton, more specifically the high school where one of its students were running through the hall shortly after the school day ended. The look on the student's face was one of terror as something was chasing them through the school. The kid managed to navigate their way through the deserted hallways until they reached a dead end.

"No!" The student cried out

Suddenly two large, intimidating men in suits walked around the corner with their fist ready to bring the kid pain.

"Your night ends one of two ways, kid," one of the said while cracking their knuckles, "either you hand over what we came for and get to go home to mommy and daddy or you can be stupid and continue running which will result in a trip to the emergency room."

While the kid obliviously wanted to get away from the two men they ultimately decided that the item they seek wasn't worth dying. They reached into their pocket and pulled out a card that they handed over to the men.

"Please take care of it," the kid begged, "my brother gave me that card before he shipped out."

"This card's fate isn't up to us." The other man said before they left the kid alone in the empty hall

The two men walked outside to a parked limousine where they approached the back window that had been rolled down.

"You get the card?" The person in the limo asked

They were given the card the men had taken from the student. Their employer studied the card before they placed it inside a briefcase next to them.

"Now all the rare cards at this school are in my collection, so I believe it's time for me to transfer again."

(Honey Bee Games: Three and a Half Weeks Later)

Bobby, Jade, and Sarah were hanging out at the main counter where Sarah's Aunt Sharon had some news regarding the Duel Monsters deck she had been constructing for Bobby.

"Here you go, Bobby." Sharon said as she handed him a deck box that held his new cards

"Thanks." Bobby replied as he began looking through his new cards

You're welcome, now this deck is pretty strong but I'm working on getting you a card that will take your deck to the next level."

"Take your time, for now I think I'll be fine with this deck."

Sarah stared at Bobby until a thought popped into her head.

"Aunt Sharon,'" Sarah called out, "would it be okay if Bobby and Jade saw the card?"

Sharon was taken back by her niece's question but simply smiled as she walked into back where her office was and brought out a small box which she placed gently on the counter.

"I want you three to appreciate this moment for you're some of the few who are lucky enough to lay their eyes upon this card." Sharon informed before she slowly opened the box

Inside the box sat a Duel Monsters card, the trio gazed as they carefully studied every detail of the card. The card in question was a monster card known by a few as Felgrand Dragon, a level eight light attribute dragon-type with 2800 attack and defense points plus armed with a powerful effect. Bobby's reaction was priceless for even when he played Duel Monsters when he was younger he never imagined seeing a card like this one.

Bobby leaned into to get a closer look but the sound of a bell shifted his attention from the card to the front door where he saw a girl with long blonde hair and a briefcase in her left hand walking towards them.

"Hello," she greeted before she noticed the trio gathered at the counter, "did I interrupt something?"

"No." They all replied as they stepped aside to let her through

She approached the counter where Sharon greeted her.

"Welcome to Honey Bee Games, how may I help you today?"

"Yes, I was passing by when I noticed this store and I wondered if you sold Duel Monster cards?"

"I sure do, I have booster packs, starter decks, and individual cards, so which would you like?"

"I would like to take a look through the individual cards please." The girl requested

Sharon went to the cabinet behind her to grab the cards the girl wanted, Bobby took this chance to introduce himself to her.

"Hi, I'm Bobby Hill." Bobby greeted as he extended his hand

The girl looked at his hand as if she wasn't sure she wanted to touch it but her mouth formed a smile when she shook Bobby's hand which caused him to slightly blush.

"Kia Norling." Kia introduced herself allowing them to hear her accent properly

Kia then noticed the deck box in Bobby's hand.

"I see that your a fellow duelist, how long have you been playing?"

"I only recently got back into the game thanks to my friends, Jade and Sarah."

"I guess my friends were right about American boys having more than one as you say squeezes."

"Where are you from, Kia?" Asked Jade who was insulted by what Kia had said

"Sweden, more specifically the southeast near the Baltic Sea."

"What brings you across the globe to our little part of Texas?" Sarah wondered

"I've actually attended many of your country's schools the past year and my father seems to like this place so starting tomorrow I'll be attending Arlen High."

"That the same school we go to," Bobby informed, "maybe tomorrow you can help me try out my new deck."

"It's sweet for you to offer but I'm certain that your no match for my deck." Kia reclined

"How about me, Kia," Jade asked as she stepped closer, "you think I'm worth your time?"

"I never said he wasn't worth my time," Kia stated, "I just know my deck is better, that's all."

"Okay then take a look at my deck and see if it's good enough."

Jade handed her deck to Kia who studied every card carefully. Jade had spent years working on her deck figuring out which cards worked or not, so it truly insulted her when Kia let out a cruel chuckle.

"Honestly I was hoping for something better," Kia insulted, "my weakest cards could beat this joke of a deck."

"I'm sorry if our decks aren't perfect like yours."

"It's not perfect but compared to yours it's still leagues ahead."

Bobby had a bad feeling that a fight was about to break out but luckily Sharon had returned with some binders full of cards.

"Sorry that it took me longer than it should to get these for you," Sharon apologized, "I'm hoping you'll find some cards you want out of these binders."

Kia returned to the counter and began looking through the binders however the expression on her face would indicate that she was far from impressed by the selection of cards.

"Do you have any more individual cards anywhere?" Kia asked

"The ones in the book or in the display case are the only unpackaged cards I have at this time."

Kia planned on just leaving the sad excuse for a game shop but suddenly she spotted one more card on the counter, a card sitting in a box, the same one Sharon had shown Bobby, Jade, and Sarah moments ago.

"The elusive Felgrand Dragon," Kia thought to herself, "only four were ever made."

The sight of the card caused her eyes to widen in joy as she reached out to grab it but when she was about touched it the box snapped shut almost taking off one of her nails.

"Hey."

"Sorry, young lady, that card is not for sale." Sharon informed

"Then how about I trade these for that card." Kia offered as she placed her briefcase on the counter

The trio huddled around when Kia opened it to reveal over a hundred rare cards which made Bobby think that if this scene was in a movie a golden light would be emitting from pile of cards.

"I can't believe she is willing to trade my aunt all those cards just for some dragon." Sarah stated her opinion on Kia's desperation

"I'm flattered by the offer but I'm going to kindly reject." Sharon said

"I can't believe my aunt refused her."

Kia would have to agree with Sarah for the only reason someone would refuse an offer like hers if they knew the true value of the Felgrand Dragon.

"I don't understand, I'm literally giving you hundreds of your American dollars in rare and powerful cards, yet you reject this offer, why?" Kia asked demanding an explanation

Sharon pointed to a picture on the wall behind her, it was a picture of her along with a handsome man around her age standing closely together and smiling. Unlike the other three young duelist Sarah knew the man in the picture.

"Uncle Conor?"

"Yes, your Uncle Conor gave this card to me before...well the point is that what makes this card special isn't how powerful or rare it is, it's that it holds the countless memories of him and all our times together." Sharon explained

"You're just making it up so you won't have to sell such a powerful monster!" Kia shouted

"The card could be the most worthless card in the world but I still wouldn't give it away for the gum on the bottom of your shoe, so once again I'm sorry but I have no interest of trading this card."

Kia glared at Sharon until she calmly closed the briefcase.

"I apologize for losing my temper," Kia said, "I understand every word your saying, I agree that there are cards whose value can't be priced."

She grabbed her briefcase and quickly but quietly walked out the shop's door.

"That almost got hairy." Bobby joked

"Yeah, but who can blame her for being attracted to a card like Felgrand Dragon." Sharon said

"She still seemed angry but I'm sure your little speech got through to her." Sarah added

The next day at school during lunch several students had gathered around some desk which were acting as a battlefield for a duel between Bobby and Jason, who after watching Jade kick Bobby's butt convinced them to let him have a turn against Bobby. So after Sarah quickly put deck for Jason together the duel had begun. Bobby's turn ended fast for all he did was set a monster face down. Jason wasted no time in summoning a monster after he drew his card.

"I summon Temple of Skulls (900/1300)," Jason called out, "now I attack your face down monster."

Bobby smiled as he flipped his monster face up, to Jason's surprise the monster was Prevent Rat, a monster with 500 attack points and 2000 defense points.

"What?"

"Now your life points take a 1100 point hit from 4000 to 2900." Jade humorously informed a baffled Jason

"You got lucky, Hill, but don't think you've won yet." Jason said as he ended his turn

Bobby drew his card and grinned when he saw what it was he drew.

"I tribute my Prevent Rat to summon Firewing Pegasus (22501800)." Bobby announced his move

"Good move, Hill." Jason complimented

"Then you'll love this move for I activate the spell card, Wild Nature's Release, this card adds my monster's defense points to its attack points."

"That means your monster has 4050 attack points."

Jason slammed his head on the desk as his life points hit zero. The surrounding students chuckled at Jason's lost, the only student who wasn't laughing was Kia who had watched the entire duel but was unimpressed by Bobby's victory.

"If dumb luck had a name it would be Bobby Hill." she thought as she watched them decide the who would duel next

The next duel was going to be between Sarah and Joseph, Kia having lost interest began heading back towards her seat when Bobby walked up to her.

"Hey, Kia, how are you doing?" Bobby greeted

Putting on a friendly face Kia returned Bobby's pleasantry.

"Great, especially after watching you beat your friend in only two turns."

"Luck of the draw."

"Obliviously Jade and Sarah have taught you well." Kia stated as looked over to see Sarah dueling Joseph

"Speaking of Sarah I have something to show you," Bobby said as he reached into his bag, "I stopped at Honey Bee Games on the way to school this morning and I was able to talk her into letting me bring this today."

Kia's eyes froze as she once again gazed upon the Felgrand Dragon card.

"She willing let you bring that card despite not being a relative like Sarah?"

"I told her that I felt bad that you only got a peek at the card while we practically devoured it with our eyes," Bobby explained, "after I promised her I would take care of it she decided to let me bring it to school."

Kia reached out to grab the card and to her surprise Bobby simply handed it to her. She turned around and held the card up to her face trying to contain her excitement for the card she desired was now in her hands.

Thank you, Bobby, holding this card and knowing what it means to Sarah's aunt has changed my views on this game."

"I'm glad to hear that," Bobby rejoiced, "how would like to hang on to it until the end of school?"

Bobby yelped when Kia wrapped her arms around him.

"You're a great friend, Bobby." Kia praised Bobby's kindness

Bobby was completely oblivious to the menacing grin on her face as she hugged him, this grin was noticed by Joseph but unfortunately he had became entranced by Kia's beauty to truly understand why she was smiling.

"Joseph, it's your turn." shouted Sarah as she tried to return his attention off of Kia to their duel

"I pass." A smitten Joseph replied

Sarah rolled her eyes as she summoned a monster then declared an attack thus official bringing Joseph's life points to zero.

"Do you think she'll let me carry her books to our next class?" Joseph wondered

Jade stared at Kia as her conversation with Bobby continued which for unknown reasons made her feel nauseous. On the outside Kia Norling appeared as a normal teenage girl or whatever was normal for a teenage girl from Sweden but the little quarrel at Honey Bee Games yesterday had her convinced there was more to her.

Eventually the school day ended and all the students headed to their lockers to get everything they needed before heading home. This was the sight Bobby Hill watched as he stood by Kia's locker waiting for her to return the Felgrand Dragon card. Soon Kia arrived and after thanking him for letting her hold onto the card for day she handed it back to him.

"I don't want to sound like...what's the saying, a broken record, but I'm grateful that you let me have this card for even for a short time." Kia said

"No problem, we're friends, I would do anything for my friends." Bobby stated

"Same here, now if you excuse me," Kia asked as she reached into her locker to pull out her briefcase, "I can't be late getting home."

"I guess I'll see you tomorrow."

Kia gave Bobby a quick hug before heading down the hall with an unpleasant grin on her face. Bobby looked down at card and right away he knew there was something wrong with the card but he couldn't quite figure out what exactly. Kia had turned the corner into the hallway that gave her a straight shot to the door.

"A few more feet then I can leave this space wasting high school and move onto more important affairs." Kia thought she approached the door

"Kia." A voice called out

Kia mentally swore to herself as she turned to see Jade standing there with a stern look on her face,

"Hi, Jade," Kia greeted in a friendly tone, "how can I help you?"

"You can start by answering this question," Jade demanded, "is your friendship with Bobby real?"

"Pardon me?"

"I saw the look in your face as you hugged him after he gave you a card."

"So my happiness is an indicator that my friendship with Bobby is a charade?"

"Depends on the card."

"It doesn't matter, Sarah's aunt let him borrow the Felgrand Dragon card, he then lent it to me for the day, and I just returned it to him moments ago."

"Did you actually return it, Kia?"

"I have no reason to keep it," Kia pointed out as she held up her Duel Monsters deck,"my deck is powerful even without it."

Jade didn't have to overthink Kia's statement for she knew exactly what needed to be done.

Short time later Bobby had reached the halfway point to Honey Bee Games with the card he borrowed from Sharon still in his hand as he was certain there was something wrong with the card.

"Bobby, wait up."

Bobby came to a halt when he realized it was Sarah calling out to him.

"Hey, Sarah," Bobby greeted before he noticed something, "where's Jade?"

"That what I would like to know," Sarah said, "she's been acting odd since you beat Jason earlier today."

Bobby had noticed Jade's odd behavior several times during school, thinking harder he recalled Jade acting the same way when they meet Kia at the game shop yesterday, especially when she insulted Jade's deck. He glanced down at the card and finally figured out what was going on.

"Oh no." Bobby gasped before racing back to the school leaving Sarah by herself

He reached the school a short time and frantically searched through all the classrooms but there were no signs of either Jade or Kia. He was about to search another classroom when out of the corner of his eyes he spotted a card on the floor near the school's back entrance. Picking up the card his eyes widened in horror as he recognized the card as one of Jade's that had a tiny specks of blood on it.

"JADE!" Bobby screamed before bursting through the back doors

Outside on the ground an injured Jade could barely keep herself up as Kia chuckled while one of goons (from the beginning of the chapter) proceeded to step on the hand Jade was using to support herself causing her to fall to the ground.

"KIA, STOP IT!"

Kia's eyes rolled before turning to face Bobby.

"Bobby, I thought you went home?"

"I did but I came back to ask that you return the card I let you borrow." Bobby said

"Which I gave happily returned." Kia reminded

"I don't know how you pulled it off but the card you gave me was a counterfeit."

"How dare you, what kind of friend accuses another of such a crime?"

"I don't care why you did it and I was willing to forgive you if you just gave me back the real card," Bobby spoke, "but what you did to Jade is unforgivable."

"She challenged me do a duel which being one of the top duelist in the European Dueling League was a decision she regretted."

Bobby stared at Jade who couldn't barely move a muscle then glanced back up at Kia. The blonde haired girl chuckled as she watched as tears began forming in Bobby's eyes.

"The little häxa wouldn't quit harassing me for she also falsely accused me of stealing the card, even after I slaughtered her in our duel."

Kia snapped her fingers and on cue her henchmen headed inside waiting for his next orders.

"Please, Kia, that card means everything to Sarah's aunt and I made a promise to keep it safe." Bobby begged

"My heart can't take it all this mistrust is killing me." Kia joked

With a cruel smirk Kia turned to leave him alone with his injured friend but Bobby refuse to back down.

"Kia, if you leave not only will you be stealing a card but also a piece of Sharon's heart." Bobby called out as he approached her

This was the breaking point for Kia, tightening her grip on the handle of her briefcase she quickly spun around striking Bobby in the face knocking him down hard. She walked over and using her foot she lifted his head up so she could see his eyes.

"Let me tell you something about the game of Duel Monsters, there is no heart in, it just cards, cards are power and the better cards you have the more powerful you'll become, I'm the type of person who will do anything to win."

Bobby's head dropped back down to the ground when Kia left to escape with Sharon's card. Once inside the school she informed her hired muscle to make sure neither Jade or Bobby get a chance to stop her before she can leave the school. The goon smiled, cracked his knuckles, then stepped through the doors. What he saw next surprised him for not only was it bad for him but it'll be worse for Kia Norling.

Kia arrived at her limo preparing to put this school in the past.

"Kia Norling." A voice called out

Glancing back she saw Bobby standing there holding up his deck hinting that he wanted to challenge her to a duel. A moment later they returned to one of the classrooms inside the school with a dueling field set up on the desk. Dark Bobby and Kia sat across from each other.

"You're a fool for challenging me to a duel, Bobby," Kia said, "I'm one of the top ranked duelist in the world and soon I'll be number one."

"This duel will be played similar to the game but with one little twist." DB chuckled

"Who is this guy," Kia wondered, "this isn't the same Bobby from earlier, it's like he has become a different person."

Meanwhile outside Jade had gathered the strength to get up on her feet then she looked over and saw the man Kia had ordered to assault her laying on the ground unconscious and barely breathing.

"What happened?" She asked out loud

Back to the duel both players had shuffled their decks, drew their hands, and set their life points at 4000. Kia declared that the move shall belong to her. Grabbing a monster card she placed it face up on the field.

"Mine Golem (1000/1500) shall be my first monster in this duel."

As soon as the monster was summoned everything about the game changed for Kia. She stared at the startling sight as her monster emerged from the very card itself.

"The monster on the card, it came to life, how is that plausible?" Kia demanded

"What's the matter, Kia, is the game too much for you already?" DB mocked

"I end my turn."

Dark Bobby smiled as he drew a card then placed a monster on the field.

"My Alligator's Sword (1500/1200) shall eliminate your Mine Golem with ease."

Kia watched as the creature on Bobby's card too came to life and as he predicted sliced up Mine Golem like a birthday cake.

Dark Bobby 4000 Kia Norling 3500

Two events occurred after the attack that took both duelist by surprise. The first thing to happen was the pieces of Kia's Mine Golem blew pass Alligator's Sword striking Dark Bobby directly. Secondly Kia's card evaporated into the air.

"No, my Mine Golem."

"That is one of the prices of a Dark Game."

"Then it's a good thing my golem took 500 of your life points before vanishing."

Kia drew her next card.


So Bobby has engaged in his first duel with Kia Norling, the girl who shall become his greatest rival. A brief history of Kia Norling, I originally created her for a Koth/Yugioh story I wrote years ago but never got around to actually having her duel or establish her character. I'm basing her personality on a mixture of Seto Kaiba (Duh) and Weiss Schnee from RWBY (as pictured in the cover image) mostly from the first few episode before we see her softer side. P.S. Kia's outfit is a combo of Weiss' SnowPea outfit and Kaiba's from the Duelist Kingdom Arc.
