Johto Region
Chapter 11.1- Crossing Tohjo Falls
Between New Bark Town and Pallet Town
(And I will make this announcement now, Rebecca has been referring to her Grandfather, Arthur, as 'dad' on occasion, but since she has no on-screen parents, the terms 'dad and 'grandpa' will be used somewhat interchangeably.)
Time- [10:47pm (Kanto), 9:47pm (Johto), Su 6/22/2008-[8:47am (NYC), Su 6/22/2008
Yuna had told everyone to get a good night's sleep. They not only deserved it, but they also needed to prepare for anything Seymour may pull. Max and Mokuba, as usual, disregarded that announcement. At the moment all fell asleep, they went to the deck.
-
"Good Morning, Rebecca." Mokuba said. "Well, morning for you, that is." Rebecca chuckled.
"So, are you coming this morning?" Rebecca asked.
"Yes, and we have something interesting to tell you. Right now, we are moving from the land of Kanto, to the land of Johto. This causes a time zone change, meaning we can now duel later in your world, meaning more people will be there." Mokuba said. Rebecca agreed and smiled. "In addition, tonight, we will get an extra hour."
"Grandpa!" she called. "Mokuba and Max are coming!"
"Ok." He said, putting shoes on. Mokuba and Max transported to their house.
-
Max got into costume, and Mokuba changed outfits. Rebecca grabbed her duel disk and deck. Arthur got the car keys, but Max assured him that he wouldn't need them.
"Alright, everyone ready?" Max asked. He got nods from everyone. "Outermost point of the KaibaLand NYC Parking Lot, New York City, New York, United States!" They disappeared, and appeared a good distance away from the KaibaLand Main Gate. They started walking, looking at the falls on Mokuba's computer. Once they got into the theme park, they decided to go on some rides, instead of just dueling. They first went to the Blue-Eyes White Roller Coaster, and had a good time. They finally got Arthur to go on.
-
"Never…again." He said, rubbing his head, trying to ease to pain. Rebecca chuckled.
"I think we need to go sit on the Ferris Wheel for a while." Mokuba said. They looked at the Duel Disk Wheel.
"Alright, as long as it's not fast." Arthur said, queasy.

Time- [10:53pm (Johto), Su 6/22/2008-[9:53am (NYC), Su 6/22/2008
-
After they had calmed down from their fun, the Airship had crossed over to border. They then proceeded into the Kaiba Dome. They noticed the many families that were there.
-
"Come on, Zane, this is the last day we're here" a small boy said, running. He looked about 6 years old, and had light blue hair.
"I'm coming, Syrus." A rather arrogant boy said, walking briskly after him. He looked about 8, had blue-green hair, and was wearing a duel disk. Their parents trailed them both.
-
"Hey look, Rebecca Hawkins and Max Bradley!" another little kid said. All duelists around them turned and looked. The next moments were blurs of color, as everyone was coming at them. Arthur and Mokuba protected them from the mass. They each picked out a duelist to battle. Then, they started out the day's first duel.
Chapter 11.2- Welcome to New Bark Town
A crash could be heard surrounding Rebecca. Her opponent just felt the blast of her Luster Dragon #2. Mokuba and Arthur were watching Leon Von Schroeder duel his older brother, Zigfried. People applauded for Rebecca, and turned their attention to Max. He was in a corner, 600-1300.
"I summon my Ace of Hearts!" Max yelled. "Now, because I summoned it alone, I can draw two cards. Now I sacrifice the 10, Queen and Ace of Hearts on the field, along with the Jack and King in my hand, to summon my Royal Flush Heart Goddess (3500/3500). Now I activate Joker #2! By removing from play the 10, Jack, Queen, King, and Ace of Diamonds, and giving up 500 life points, I can summon my Royal Flush Diamond Mistress (3750/3750). Now, combine to form the Royal Flush Red Streak (4500/4500)! It gains 50 points for every red card in the grave. There are currently 12, so it has 5100 points. Attack Jinzo!" Max-100LP. Opponent-0LP.
-
Applause was given for Max. His cLP fell to 23,400, however. Regardless, they continued by picking to other duelists to have at it with.

Time- [11:39pm (Johto), Su 6/22/2008-[10:39am (NYC), Su 6/22/2008

In Johto, the Airship landed in a patch of grass, just outside of a large building. Yuna had also disregarded her own announcement, and was awake, drinking some lemonade. Brother opened the main gate, and Yuna went down.
"You must be Yuna." A tired man said. It was Professor Elm.
"Yes, and you must be Prof. Elm." Yuna replied. "Pleasure to meet you."
"Do come to my Laboratory." He said, pointing to the building.
-
"Thank you so much for coming." Elm said.
"Not a problem." Yuna assured him. "Things have not been easy for us."
"Oak has told me all about your adventures. This Seymour character, you seem to have beaten him twice in the past." Elm said.
"Yes, once in Spira, and one in the Indigo League." Yuna agreed. "Where exactly is this land's Pokemon League?"
"A little northeast of here, in a place called Silver Town. Inside Mt. Silver. The league used to have to share with the Indigo HQ, due to its close proximity. The four trainers of the Elite Four are Will, Koga, Bruno, Karen, and the Champion Lance, who I believe just escaped Seymour's wrath in Kanto." Elm said, offering Yuna some lemonade. She passed him her glass.
"That is correct." Yuna said. "So, I suppose you know Ash well?"
"Oh, yes. Ash I know much about." Elm said. "Misty and Brock, too. Yes, although I did not give Ash his original Pokemon, I did have the obligation of giving him my advice, and an updated Pokedex." Yuna listened, somewhat off in another world.
"So, you said that Seymour has been reported?" she asked.
"Yes. Most recently, a Moltres was seen over the Violet City Area. Violet is the 2nd largest city in Johto. As you can imagine, police have surrounded the borders. The Gym Leader, Falkner, is on high alert, and has been in lockdown in his own gym. It really is terrible." Elm explained. "After the incident in Saffron, well…Johto doesn't want to take a chance. Our largest city, Goldenrod, even has a gym in it." Yuna looked at her drink.
"It really is horrible. Saffron has about $2 million in damages, mostly to the Sliph Co. building; we're glad it wasn't worse, and Sabrina could still make a return." Yuna said.
"Yes." Elm said. "Well, if there are no more questions, I guess I can leave you to sleep."
"Thank you, Prof. Elm." Yuna said. "We will do our best."
-
Yuna left, and returned to the Airship, and went to bed.
-
-
"Violet City, protect yourself as best as you can, you will not stop me…" Seymour said, flying overhead. Violet had troops from the Johto Police guarding the border. There were also planes in the air, watching out for Seymour. They spotted his firebird, and alerted the ground. It was in vain, as Seymour had sent a blast of fire at the PokeMart, which missed, and one to Sprout Tower, which began burning the roof. He then flew up and away.
The fire department came immediately. The sages evacuated, along with all other people in the building. The fire was out in about a half hour, but the top floor was almost completely destroyed.

Time- [12:59am (Johto), M 6/23/2008-[11:59am (NYC), Su 6/22/2008
-
"Go, my Joker #1!" Max yelled. "I gain 300 life points for every monster on the field. Since there are 5, three on mine, two on yours, I gain 1500 LP." Max-4600LP. "Now attack his monsters, and his LP to win the duel!" Opponent-0LP.
Applause came, as a time warning came up on the laptop. It was 1:00 in Johto. They prevented Max and Rebecca from picking out more duelists, and left quickly. Max- 24,000 cLP after 9 duels. They inconspicuously entered a broom closet, and transported to the Hawkins' house, and Max and Mokuba, in turn, to Johto. They immediately went to bed, sleeping well.
Chapter 11.3- Pokemon Showing, Johto Fun Duel- LIVE!
Time- [7:30am (Johto), M 6/23/2008-[6:30pm (NYC), Su 6/22/2008
-
The morning awoke with a jolt in the laboratory. Prof. Elm woke up to many news reports blaring on his computer.
-
"Last night, just after midnight, Violet City had a scare. Last night, the person known as Seymour came down upon Violet City, in what looks like a little toying with the army. Multiple shots were fired by the bird, which set two fires, one just right of the PokeMart, and one that destroyed the top floor of Sprout Tower. We will bring you more as soon as we learn more."
-
"This is terrible." Elm said. He took a drink of coffee. Every newspaper in Johto had this incident as the headliner. The articles stated that security was being built up in every city, Ilex Forest, and the Lake of Rage. That meant everywhere in Johto was under full protection.
-
Slowly, each person got up, became acquainted with Prof. Elm, and was alerted with the problems. The Johto Region was not going to be a picnic. Seymour was having fun.
-
Time- [10:00am (Johto), M 6/23/2008-[9:00pm (NYC), Su 6/22/2008
-
Mokuba and Max were snoozing, and Seto and Pegasus were in the lab.
"Hmm, everything seems to be running smoothly for the tournament…" Pegasus commented.
"We just need to make sure that everything goes according to plan, including getting back to Domino in a timely manner." Seto said. "Without that, the entire thing will just cause another embarrassment to my company. Now, Yuna mentioned something about a World Showcase this morning. I suppose we had better go. Let's get Mokuba."
"May has also requested that someone get Max as well." Pegasus added.
"Fine." Seto said, thinking it would be an easy task. Wrong. For a moment, it felt like nothing could get them up. They tried their duel disk noises, but nothing seemed to awaken them. Seto then hatched an idea. Pegasus put his activated duel disk on Mokuba, and Seto attacked with Blue-Eyes. The worst possible alarm clock imaginable was a small hum compared to this. Mokuba was wide-awake, frozen attached to the wall.
"Hi, Seto." He got out before falling on the bed. When they did I to Max, they used a weaker monster, as not to scare him to death.
-
"Hi Mokuba, Seto, Pegasus." He managed to get out before falling on the bed, as well. Getting up, he removed the disk, and handed it to Pegasus. The four of them then left to Elm's Lab.
-
-
"Go Blaziken, Blaze Kick attack!" May commanded, as she watched her Pokemon do so.
"Hmm, Hoenn Pokemon. How exciting." Elm commented. "Feraligator, attack Blaziken with Hydro Pump!" Blaziken was almost KO'ed in one blast.
"Pikachu, I choose you!" Ash yelled. "Bolt Tackle on Feraligator!" Feraligator was not as lucky as Blaziken. He was knocked out all at once.
"Alright, I use Onix!" Brock called out. "Use Bind on Pikachu!" The rock-snake wrapped around the little yellow creature, much to its displeasure.
"Pikachu, thunder!" Ash yelled quickly.
"Pi…pi…ka…pi…ka…pika…chu!!!" it yelled with power. Even if rock had the advantage, Onix was no match for Pikachu's exceptionally high power.
"My turn!" Misty said. "Go, Corsola!" To her dismay, both Psyduck and Corsola came out. "Not again!" she yelled, calling Psyduck back. "Now, Pikachu, use a small thunderbolt on Corsola!" Pikachu did so, confused. "Now, Corsola, use recover!" A faint aura came around it, replenishing some health.
-
Each trainer called back their respective Pokemon, and put the balls in Elm's Healer.
"Thank you, so much, Trainers." Yuna said. "Now, we will have our usual Fun Duel. Now, the last two times, it has been me and Seto Kaiba over there." She pointed; he waved. "Do we have any other suggestions for pairing?"
-
"What about Kaiba and Yugi?" Brock asked. It was truly sincerely thought about.
"Well, that pairing usually happens for special occasions, and we know who would win, anyway." Tea said.
"Kaiba wouldn't stand a chan…" Joey said, watching Kaiba's reaction.
"If you think so lowly of me, then how come you have never beaten me?" Seto asked, getting back at Joey. He smirked.
"Hmm, you know, that doesn't sound too bad, Kaiba." Yugi said.
"You mean, you want to duel me?" Kaiba asked. The room fell silent, waiting for a response.
"No, actually, I meant you and Joey." Yugi responded. The room was dead silent for five seconds. They needed it to hold it all back. Tea and Tristan were silently dying. Mokuba and Pegasus were, too. Grandpa then spoke up.
"I think that's a great idea, Yugi." He said. That broke Tea, Tristan, Mokuba, and Pegasus's restraint. They began filling the room with laughter. Once it calmed down, Seto made a statement.
"Fine, I will gladly wipe the floor with you, Wheeler." Seto said. Joey smirked again, and ran to get his duel disk. Just then, Elm got a very interesting call.
-
"Hello?" he said as he got the face of the President of Johto. "Mr. President? How can I help you?"
"We, as in my advisors and I, have agreed that the people need top be alert of this game that the Kanto Heroes have been playing with these evil people, which have caused so much damage." The President said. "Can you make this happen within 10 minutes? I have Goldenrod TV ready for a region-wide broadcast."
"Oh! Yes, yes, of course. We were about to have a fun duel, anyway." Elm said. "Just get the feed from my lab to the stations, and you can have it."
"Yes, thank you." The President said. "I am currently using a Goldenrod TV computer, so they will just put the feed on the screens. You could actually watch your own duel on TV, if you wanted. I don't see why you would, but…anyway, just tell me when you are ready, and have the duel in front of the screen. Thank you, again."
-
Joey arrived, and things were explained to him. "Great, now I can beat Kaiba on national TV! If only we were back home…"
"Try again, Wheeler." Kaiba said, putting his duel disk across the room. "You don't have any chance of beating me."
"Oh, yeah, let's just see!"
-
Mokuba hooked his laptop up to the computer, to allow it to show scores, attack and defense points, close-ups, et cetera
-
"We interrupt this broadcast to bring you a message from the President of Johto." The anchor said.
"Thank you. Ladies and Gentlemen of Johto, the world is currently in a state of high alert, thanks to a mysterious character, which goes by the name of Seymour Guado. This man is extremely dangerous, and has extremely powerful creatures, which are capable of harming both the human and Pokemon of the world. The heroes from Kanto have come to help rid the region of Seymour and his evil. We have all spoken and agreed that the public needs to see what the dangers are. Remember, Seymour likes to have fun. Police will be tracking him, and your city may be put into lockdown, so be prepared for that. I will make an official press conference later in the day. Now, without further adu, two of the Kanto Heroes will give you a taste of what we are protecting you from."

"This match is between Duelist Kingdom Finalist, Battle City Semifinalist, and Grand Championship Quarterfinalist, Joey Wheeler, and Battle City Runner-Up, Kaiba Corp. President, and #2 Duelist in the world, Seto Kaiba. Battle City style, 4000 life points, direct attacks legal, summoning required, etc. Let the duel begin!" Mokuba announced.
"Let's duel!" Joey and Seto said.
