With Marik, Bakura, Seto, Joey, Yugi, Yami -

"Fire? What fire? I probably did it, sorry." Marik replied cheekily.

"No, I'm serious; but how come you get to take the blame!" Bakura replied

"Let's go check it out."

Bakura nodded at Marik's speech and they both decided to investigate the problem. Bakura turned himself into his wolf form and Marik grew his leathery wings out and flew off. Bakura the wolf ran fast like lightning towards the fire, stopping as soon as he came towards the bushes. He hid behind them as he stalked his prey. Marik flew down towards Bakura, silently, retracting his wings. He too hid in the bushes, slightly hissing in pain as his arm had just been scratched on the wound from a twig.

His hissing sounded like the snake which made the group at the campfire silent. Their eyes widened as they heard deep aggravation from the mysterious creatures hidden within the darkness of the forest. Yugi's dragon eyes widened as the slits in them began to get thin as danger was present. His head snapped towards the bushes as he lowly growled. He stood up on all four legs and cautiously walked over to the bushes, aware of the dangers which lurk in side.

"Great going, vampire. Now there's a dragon onto us." Bakura whispered.

"Who's there?" Yugi asked with a protective tone.

The dragon walked into the bushes and let out a squeal of pain as Bakura had transformed into his werewolf form and struck down the dragon! Biting into his thick scales which caused blood to leak from the open wound. His vision went blurry as the vampire leaped high up into the air, extending his claws as he struck Yugi down. Yugi boomed a furious roar as his swished his tail around to attack the beasts!

"YUGI!" Yami called, pulling out his large blade. He ran straight up with his two-handed sword and cut straight through the bushes, pushing Yugi backwards away from the monstrous killers. "Get back, you beasts!" Yami howled, tears dropping from his eyes as Yugi laid on the floor, unconscious. The dragon boy's size has decreased as he lay motionless on the floor. Yami took a swing at the vampire and the werewolf as they dodged out of the way, putting up their hands.

"Yugi?" The both questioned in a panicked voice.

"Joey, Seto, shield Yugi." Yami said as he lifted up his blade high in the air so that it shone in the moonlight's beam. He was just about to strike when...

"No, please, Yami! It's us, Bakura and Marik!" The werewolf said, causing Yami to stop in his tracks. "Damn, Marik. That's the second person I've nearly killed today who I know..." Bakura mentioned.

"Bakura... Marik...?"

"Yeah?"

"Why did you nearly kill Yugi?"

"We kinda thought he as going to kill us..."

"Besides, Yami, it's just a game."

"Yes, and when we go back to reality, if Yugi is still unconscious now, he will still be when we return." Seto mentioned.

"Oh, sorry. Forgive us. Or at least me, not Bakura."

"What?!"

"Eh... Nothing."

"You two, stop it. We forgive you. We just have to get out of this forest first."

"I'm a vampire." Marik said showing his fangs, "I can lead us to the nearest largest amount of blood supply. Where humans will be of course."

"Alright, good. We need to find Malik and Ryou."

"Oh yeah, I forgot about them..."

To this, Yami's face vaulted. "Congratulations."

"Ehehehe..."

"Come on, we don't have time to waist."

They all headed towards the nearest town with Marik in the lead which meant that everyone was trailing behind them.

With Malik and Ryou -

"Oh, great. Where am I now?" Ryou shouted in disbelief, as he pondered around in the room. The room he was in looked quite quaint and medieval. Although, it did look cozy too. "Oh, yeah. I'm a human character in this odd game." He adventured around the house, making himself familiar when a knock was heard from his door. At first he didn't hear it, but it happened again. "Coming!" The silver-haired human said. He rushed towards his front door then opened it, giving a warm smile to the figure stood there.

"Ryou?" The figure said.

"Um, yes?" He replied.

"Ryou! It's really you!"

"Who are you?"

"It's me, Malik!"

"Oh, hey Malik, come on in."

"Thanks."

Malik led the magician inside and allowed him to sit down in the living room, "So, Malik. What brings you here?"

"Well, I was looking for you, so I was asking everyone here if they had seen you. First of all, I was in the strange, ancient and gloomy cave. The next thing I knew my staff was lighting up and I was instantly teleported here!"

"You are a magician."

"I know. Just, I never expected to do be able to do that."

"The more you know..."

Both teens laughed as they happily as they finally found each other from being in this bizarre game. Malik's eyes moved around the room, studying the room carefully as it became an interest in the awkward silence. "So...uh... Nice place?"

"Thanks!" Ryou chuckled.

With the whole gang together -

Two hours later, Malik and Ryou were casually looking around the town for any familiar faces. Unfortunately, they didn't find any of their friends. A few minutes later, they saw a group of people with some strange monster in their hands, racing towards them! They grew closer and closer each step as they each collided with each other!

"Hey! Watch where ya goin', punks!" Joey yelled.

"Why don't you, can't you see we're looking for out friends!" Malik yelled back.

"Wait, Malik?"

"Wait, Joey?"

"Um, sorry... I guess." Both of them said, as their eyes switched to the unconscious dragon on the floor who was slowly starting to regain consciousness.

"Who's that?" Malik asked.

"It's Yugi." Yami said, leaning down to Yugi whilst picking up the dragon. "He's unconscious, but right now he's slowly coming back, and so we're trying to find a hospital."

"Wait, I think I can heal him. I am a Mage after all."

"That's true. Alright then, let's go find some place to stay."

"Ryou has a home, he's human so he started there."

The whole group looked towards Ryou as he started to back off a bit, surprised at their expressions. "S-Sure. You can come to mine."

They all smiled towards Ryou as he led the way home.

After a while, they made it back and Ryou led them to his room. He then gestured for Yami to place Yugi on the bed as he told Malik and Yami to stay here and watch over him. The others left the room, quietly as Yugi's large, red dragon eyes were fluttering. He groaned in pain as his wounds were burning and agonising. Yugi's vision finally became better as time passed. He noticed there were two of his friends standing guard over him. One was his look-a-like (If he was in real life), the other was a tanned teen, taller than the other one.

"Y-Yami..? M-Malik?" Yugi whispered weakly.

"Yes, Yugi. We are here for you." Yami said, smiling down at Yugi whilst sliding a hand through his hair. "Malik is here to help you, he's a mage."

"I don't exactly know how to, but I know I can heal... somehow." An idea came to Malik's head as he confidently said, "Tips!"

'Magicians are human-type creatures and they are rivaled against the Ghost creature. Mages can perform various spells on themselves and others. To perform the spell, you must think of the spell and whisper it. The Magician's unique ability is spell-casting. They are peaceful and get along well with Beast creatures better than Human creatures. The Magician's power to cast spells increase when near a Werewolf or a Dragon if they are in your party.

Abilities:

- Fire spell,

- Water Spell,

- Earth Spell,

- Electric spell,

- Healing,

- Reviving,

- Teleportation,

- Telekinesis.'

"Heal" Malik whispered whilst focusing his attention and spell onto Yugi. A green flow of mystical energy flew out of the staff and wrapped its warmth onto Yugi's scaly body. He relaxed as he let the amazing flow of energy sink into his scales and skin. He felt the pain lift from his body and his eyes slowly closing as his mind was drifting away, drifting into the land of dreams filled with happiness and tranquil...

Malik smiled towards Yami and left the room, leaving the Dragon and the Dragon Slayer in the same room as each other. Yami's lilac eyes were softened from seeing Yugi's adorable form. A while ago, Yugi had shrunk down to the form of a baby dragon, due to the lack of his strength. Yugi was quivering because of the cold air surrounding them, the Slayer noticed this and took off his armour, leaving him only in a blank-white vest and coal-black trousers. He snuck in at the behind Yugi, grabbing his sides and pulling him closer to him. Yugi smiled in his sleep as Yami fell asleep slightly after, still clutching onto Yugi.
