DOWN WITH 4!KIDS! ALL HAIL FUNIMATION!

As we entered the castle we were greeted by Pegasus himself with some bodyguards,

"Welcome to the finals for you are the best of the best, and before the finals can begin we have prepared a special duel for you all to see."

When Pegasus finished saying that I felt Toon Blue give him a hate full glare and I knew that this was not going to be an easy battle for whoever has to fight him right away. As we went up on to the balcony that over saw the duels I was shocked to see that it was Kaiba that gets to duel Pegasus first,

'The bloody hell?! How in the world did Kaiba get in first without us seeing him?!'

I yelled in my head to which I gave myself a headache just trying to put logic to how Kaiba did that. As my brain calmed down enough so I can at least focus on what's going on, I saw that Kaiba is already in trouble due to Toon World and its effects,

'Ouch, that's gotta hurt his pride.'

{You can say that again, but just look at how my younger brother fights, it's a disgrace to all Toon monsters in the world!}

I just nodded my head in agreement and turned my attention back to the duel at hand and what was the most surprising thing about it, was the fact that Pegasus could tell which cards Kaiba plays on the field before he even plays them. In the end Kaiba lost and his soul was put into what Pegasuses called a soul card,

{Oh my Ra, whoever loses to Pegasus loses their very soul}

'I couldn't agree more with you Darkness, but me or Yugi will have to face him sooner or later.'

Darkness nodded his head in agreement but soon our attention was drawn back to the dueling field as Pegasus said,

"Now that's done and out of the way, we can get back to choosing who will face who in the finals."

With that said he left the dueling area to go somewhere else inside the castle, we were then escorted to a dining hall to have some well diner. As we were seated at the long dining table, there was a verity of food there including some of my favorites, like apple cinnamon pie, Phil cheese steak sandwiches, and cheese pizza. The seating arrangement was, I was seated next to Ryou who was on my right side and Tea` to my left side, Yugi was next to Mai, and Joey and Tristan were next to each other and there were two more, one was a guy who was from New York to which I could care lease, for I have no like for people like him from New York's underbelly, and the second one looked like a girl and she looked filmier to me, like I known her from somewhere, but where? As I continued to ponder on that mystery someone else was watching the whole scene.

(Bakura's POV.)

As I was watching Jasmine through the millennia ring I still couldn't shake this feeling of remembrance that surrounds her and the way she duels,

'Why do I get this feeling every time I'm near her, or is it just fate that this is happening now and not later?, Ugh, this is very confusing.'

But my thoughts were cut short by the sound of Joey screaming,

"What the heck is that?!"

Jasmine looked at the object and looked as if she was analyzing it for some kind of murder case,

"Joey I think that this is part of how we know what duelist we have to duel in the finals."

One of Pegasus's bodyguards confirmed this,

"Why yes miss Draco, that it is, please will all finalist look inside to find your letter."

With that said, Jasmine and the other finalist picked up the strange objects and opened them, Jasmine's letter was E and the others I do not know but Jasmine didn't seem to worried about who she has to duel with at all.

(Jasmine's POV.)

'Okay, I now know how this is all going to play out.'

Darkness piped in and said,

{How so, Jasmine?}

'Well, you see, we all have one letter of the alphabet and my theory is that we have to face the one who's letter comes next after it.'

And once again I was right, for the duels will be, Yugi Muto vs Mai Valentina, Joey Wheeler vs Keith and me vs black rose Draco.

'That title sounds filmier to me but were have I heard it before?!'

I was too busy contemplating on where I heard that title before that I didn't notice that Darkness and Blue were studying my opponent with great concern and interest. As we all finished our dinner, we were then escorted to our rooms, my room was right next to Ryou's, for Pegasus didn't want to split me and Ryou up for he's my guest. As we all got settled into our rooms I took the chance to look over the card that my grandpa gave me,

'Why did my grandpa give you too me of all people?'

I thought about this as I looked at him the card known as Draco Maximus, his design looks like an ancient, powerful, wise and heroic dragon with a color scheme of dark Aqua blue and deep Crimson red, his wings look so massive that they could take down an entire big city with one flap of them and the eyes look as if they could pierce through one's very soul and turn it to ice, but it looked like it had a gentle side too like he's only meant to bring justice and judgment to those who defy him or his master in anyway shape or from. As I kept staring at it, I felt a unique connection to it, like it's waiting for something/someone to summon him,

'I guess, I'll have to wait to use him in a duel then.'

I put the card back into my deck but then something else caught my eye. A magic card called The Maximus Ritual(used to summon Draco Maximus to the field)and a note from my grandpa attached to the back,

~Dear Jasmine, I forgot to give you this card before you left, so I sunk it into your deck. From Grandpa~

'Oh Grandpa, you always know how to amaze me.'

I smiled at that and went to go get into my pj's for the night. But what I didn't know was something bad was going to happen during the nightly hours.
