Meanwhile, back at the Duel Dome, Grandpa and Téa walk onto the main floor, among the rubble.

"Whoa, it looks like an earthquake hit this place." Tea commented.

They soon saw the Pyramid of Light.

"And what the heck is that thing?!" Tea yelped.

"That's what I wanna know." Mokuba replied.

"Hey." Mo greeted.

Cherry sluggishly looked up as she seemed to be controlled from Anubis somehow.

"Mokuba, is Yugi inside that thing?" Tea asked the dark-haired boy.

"Yeah and so is my brother and some guy that went inside it," Mokuba said. "What is it?"

"The Pyramid of Light." Patch said.

"But how is something like that possible?" Tea wondered.

"It's Anubis!" Cherry told them.

"You don't think...?" Tea was about to ask her.

"Don't you remember the legend?" Grandpa reminded Tea.

"What legend?" Mo asked.

"Anubis once tried to destroy the world using the power of the Pyramid of Light." Grandpa told her.

"Wow." Patch gulped.

"The Pyramid of Light?!" Mokuba spoke up. "Wait, rewind a sec! All of this insanity started when my brother played a card that was called the Pyramid of Light?!"

"That's right." Mo nodded.

"Well, Yugi and Kaiba are inside something from 5,000 years ago!" Grandpa added. "And, if the myth is true, then Anubis is using it to finish what he started in the past!"

"That's crazy!" Mokuba replied. "We've got to get them out of there!"

They look up at the glowing, unassailable pyramid.

"Atticus..." Cherry whispered wearily.

Drell soon activated his duel disk and drew five cards before drawing one more to join in the duel.

"You are a fool!" Kaiba glared at Drell.

"I may be a fool, but if helping Yugi defeat you will end this madness, then so be it," Drell glared before activating one of his card from his hand. "I activate Prematural Burial to bring Magicians Valkyria back from the graveyard and even though this allows me to summon it to my side of the field, I'm giving her back to Yugi as I also raise her attack points with Mage Power, even if I do have to give up half of my life points, but she gets 1,000 more attack points for every face down card me or Yugi place on the field."

"You seem to know what you're doing for an old man." Kaiba scoffed.

"Oh, I do," Drell said. "I'll end my turn."

Kaiba glared at Drell in his competition against his chance of finally beating Yugi.

Yugi soon drew his next card. "I'll boost this stranger's strength with Mage Power!"

"You sure?" Drell asked. "That'll cost you 800 life points."

"I know, but in the process, the attack points and defense points will increase by 500 for every face down card on the field." Yugi said.

"Smart kid." Drell whispered to himself.

Yugi placed more face downs against Kaiba. "A thousand additional attack points make my Valkyria more than a match for your Blue-Eyes! Attack, Valkyria, with Mystic Scepter Blast!"

Magician Valkyria soon sent a blast towards the Blue-Eyed White Dragon.

"Not so fast, Yugi!" Kaiba glared as he set Yugi into a trap. "Attack Guidance Armor will save my Blue-Eyes!"

Kaiba's trap activates, and Peten the Dark Clown pats his new armor proudly.

"I wouldn't be patting that armor proudly if I were you." Drell said to Peten.

"Very observant," Kaiba glared at Yugi. "Now your attack is diverted!"

"Not if I have anything to say about it." Drell retorted.

"And just how do you plan to help him now?" Kaiba scoffed.

"By activating the trap card 'Trap Jammer'!" Drell smirked as he showed the card in his hand.

"WHAT?!" Kaiba asked.

"Yep, even if it's not on the field, it can be activated to negotiate a trap card's effect." Drell smirked.

"You... You..." Kaiba snarled.

"Clever son of a witch? Yes, I am." Drell taunted.

The attack Guidance Armor was soon destroyed and sent to the graveyard.

Cherry yelled out and groaned as she looked quite miserable as Anubis seemed to be deep inside of her somehow and where she soon looked angry towards Drell as he was interfering with the duel. The attack was about to hit Blue-Eyes. Cherry soon started to chant something and where time started to go backwards and soon stopped at where it was Yugi's turn to attack without Drell in the Pyramid of Light this time. Mo and Patch looked very worried about Cherry. This time, the trap card was not destroyed and the attack destroyed the dark clown.

In the winding stone hallways of the Millennium Puzzle, Yugi, Joey, and Tristan run out of a hallway and into a wider chamber. They stop on a ledge overlooking a chasm and catch their breath. Atticus was the same way.

"I think we lost 'em." Tristan said.

"So, who were those freaks?" Joey asked.

"I think those mummies were from Anubis." Atticus panted.

Behind and above them, in the open air off the ledge, the sky is roiling red around the large golden eye of the Pyramid of Light, and the center of the eye becomes a window back to the duel.

"Whoa." Atticus said.

"Yugi, what the heck is goin' on?" Joey asked.

"We've been drawn into the Millennium Puzzle, and that thing up there is somehow responsible!" Yugi replied.

"Then what's that down there?" Tristan asked while pointing down towards the chasm.

In the dark chasm below them, bits of golden rock and shards of blue glass swirl through the air around two pyramids, both familiar; the golden one on the left with its base at the top has had one of its corners demolished, smashed into by the one on the right, blue glass and also with a golden eye at its center. Or, to put it another way...

"Whoa." Atticus said.

"That blue one looks like the Pyramid of Light we saw at the museum!" Yugi cried out.

"Yeah? Well, it looks like it's beatin' the crud outta your Millennium Puzzle!" Joey replied.

"Fightin' pyramids and creepy floatin' eyes," Tristan commented. "Wonderful."

Back at the duel...

"I suggest that you give up right now." Drell glared at Kaiba.

"Have you forgotten about my deck destruction virus?" Kaiba smirked as the tentacles came out of the trap card again and took out ten random cards from Yugi's deck and into the graveyard.

Drell smiled sheepishly as he seemed to have a sweat drop over his forehead.

"Does it hurt, Yugi?" Kaiba mocked his original opponent. "Because it only gets worse from here."

"Oh, no... I don't like the sound of that." Drell gulped.

"Kaiba! We can't continue this duel, there's another power at work here, and it's destroying us both!" Yugi begged.

"That's getting a bit old." Kaiba replied carelessly.

"We could all be in great danger!" Yugi told him.

"The only thing I sense is your fear, not that I blame you, but I came here to win and stopping's not an option!" Kaiba continued selfishly. "For all the times you humiliated me in a duel, when clearly I should've been champion; for all the times I had to listen to you preach about the Heart of the Cards! You're going down, Yugi, and my Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon is gonna put you there!"

"He has a worse ego than I do." Drell grumbled to himself.

"I agree." Patch said.

"Kaiba, once again your ridiculously over-inflated ego blinds you to the truth!" Yugi glared before drawing a card. "I am far from beaten, I play Monster Reborn to bring back Dark Magician Girl!"

"Ooh, my favorite hot monster." Drell smirked.

"Hm!" Dark Magician Girl glanced at him.

"Next I reveal my face down card :Sage's Stone!" Yugi continued. "When the Dark Magician Girl is on the field and Sage's Stone is played, it allows me to automatically summon Dark Magician!"

"Big deal." Kaiba scoffed.

"Oh, if you knew what he was up to; you'd be concerned." Drell smirked at Kaiba.

"For now I sacrifice both magicians to summon, the Sorcerer of Dark Magic!" Yugi continued. "And with his rise to power comes your Blue-Eyes' fall from grace! Because for every one of my Sorcerer's fallen comrades in the graveyard, your dragon loses 500 points!"

"And you should know how many there are in his graveyard." Drell smirked at Kaiba.

Kaiba yelped and groaned out in dismay.

"And right now there have been three magicians laid down to rest," Yugi glared at Kaiba. "So your precious Ultimate Dragon's power, decreases by 1500 points!"

"And that means your dragon is vulnerable to attack," Drell taunted Kaiba. "See ya, Blue-Eyes!"

"Attack, with Celestial Blast!" Yugi commanded.

The powerful sorcerer soon attacked the three-headed dragon.

"Now! Will you stop this madness?!" Yugi glared at Kaiba.

"After one lucky move?" Kaiba replied. "I don't think so!" He soon drew one card and soon chuckled darkly and where Cherry did the same thing.

"Guys, I think there's something really wrong with Cherry." Patch pouted.

"Very well, Kaiba, you leave me no choice!" Yugi soon drew again as Kaiba did. "I move to attack Peten the Dark Clown!"

'No, then there will be nothing to defend my life points.' Kaiba thought to himself.

Drell sat on the edge as he watched this since he didn't have his magic working right now. Peten was soon destroyed. Cherry's eyes flashed red as she appeared to be possessed by Anubis. The trap card was about to do it's work again only for it to be blocked. Drell bit his fist as he watched this. It was soon Kaiba's turn. Drell bit his nails as this was getting intense.

"He's in trouble now." Cherry smirked.

"Cherry?" Drell shook a chill down his spine.

"I activate the magic of Monster Reborn!" Kaiba called out as the Blue-Eyed White Dragon returned to the field. "Then I sacrifice my reborn Ultimate Dragon, to summon a new monster."

"Here it comes." Cherry smirked.

"Ya see I have an even more powerful monster, complements of Pegasus!" Kaiba told Yugi much to his and Drell's misfortune. "A shiny new dragon! The Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon!"

A shiny dragon soon appeared on the field, ready for battle.

Outside the Pyramid, Grandpa, Téa, and Mokuba are following the duel on the big screen as Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon takes the field.

"Could it be...?" Grandpa asked in alarm. "A card I've never seen before?"

"Oh, it gets worse for the Pharaoh." Cherry smirked.

"Cherry is seriously scaring me, guys." Patch whimpered.

"You see, for every dragon in my graveyard, The Shining Blue Dragon gets 300 attack points, that's 1500 right off the bat for a punishing total of 4500 points!" Kaiba smirked.

Grandpa, Téa, Patch, Mo, and Mokuba look worried, as the monitor shows the increase.

"But don't forget, due to my Sorcerer's powers, your new dragon's attack points by 1500!" Yugi replied.

"I don't think so; thanks to my dragon's Shining Diffusion!" Kaiba smirked.

The Shining Blue Dragon soon fired a blue light at the Yugi's monster, canceling out the effect.

"What?! Your points didn't decrease!" Yugi noticed.

"Exactly, that's because my Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon's allows me to choose which magic, trap, or monster effect cards can be used against him." Kaiba replied on the contrary.

"Oh, no... That's bad..." Drell gulped.

Cherry giggled rather insanely.

"Just face it, Yugi, your days as a champion duelist are over! My Shining Dragon is gonna blast you back to the minor leagues where you belong!" Kaiba taunted. "Now, hit him again, Blue-Eyes! Shining Neutron Blast!"

The Shining Blue Dragon soon fired its attack at Yugi's monster.

Yugi's life points soon decreased to 200.

"Kaiba, stop this!" Drell begged while Cherry laughed at the chaos. "And will you stop laughing?!"

"Why?" Cherry smirked at the warlock.

"This is no time for laughing." Drell said.

"Oh, I think it's the perfect time," Cherry smirked. "This way, Kaiba can finally beat Yugi!"

"This isn't like you." Mo frowned.

"Clearly you don't know me." Cherry smirked darkly to her foster cousin.

Mo soon noticed a different look in Cherry's eyes.

A dark laughter was soon heard as we are soon shown back inside the Millennium Puzzle's world.

"You sure this is the way to that mummy guy?" Joey asked.

"Yeah, every hallway looks the same!" Tristan added.

They got startled as yet another mummy was coming out, but this one appeared to be a sweet and innocent little girl one.

"Tanis...?" Atticus asked in shock.

"Hi, Atticus!" Tanis smiled as she sucked her thumb sweetly. "I wanna help you."

"Tanis, how did you get in the Millennium Puzzle?" Atticus asked

"My mummy showed me a way on the way to finding you," Tanis replied. "She says that she knows what's going on, and-"

"Wait, back up, you know one of those things?" Joey pointed to the little mummy girl like she was a threat.

"Don't worry, this is Tanis, she's a good mummy." Atticus assured them.

"Your friends are cute." Tanis giggled to Joey and Tristan.

"Anyway, are you sure you wanna help, Tanis?" Atticus asked. "This will be dangerous."

"Please let me help," Tanis gave cute puppy dog eyes. "Pretty please with sugar and scarab beetles on top?"

"Oh, alright." Atticus smiled.

Tanis giggled and clapped while Joey and Tristan rolled their eyes. Yugi reacts with surprise, then falls to his knees, gripping his shoulders as though suddenly cold.

"Yugi, you okay?" Atticus asked.

"It's weird... Suddenly I feel very weak, you guys..." Yugi groaned.

"Oh, that's not good at all." Tanis frowned.

"Hey, there's a trail." Tristan noticed one direction.

"There's an energy that way," Tanis pointed out to the others. "It should take you to Anubis, my mummy and mummy-daddy say so."

"Thanks, Tanis." Atticus smiled.

"Sure thing." Tanis smiled back as she felt glad that she could help.

"Come on, guys." Joey said as he carried a sick and poor Yugi.
