(A/n hey guys Ik the comments and reviews have been iffy on what I've been doing. So you guys are telling me about effects and abilities for the monsters and cards. I'm here to tell you that I'm not focused on the details it's why I could never make a yugioh fanfiction strictly because I'm not good with the details of card effects looking up each monster, magic and trap abilities. It's why I brought the characters of yugioh to a world I'm more familiar in the detail. So even if it drives you crazy please please don't remind me about effects. It's why the base to these characters even summoning their monsters is through the magic I gave each character. Which by the way if you couldn't tell Kaiba has Air, Joey is Fire, Yugi is Light and Yami is obviously Dark. That's their magic before using their magic to summon their monsters. Now please enjoy)
Chapter 6: The Enemies Hideout
The tall blonde leads the way through the woods outside the guild, heading north behind the guild. Yugi and Wendy swung helplessly from the jaw of the Sabertooth Tiger both surprised that their clothes haven't ripped under their weight. "You caused us a lot of trouble Yugi Muto. Don't do anything stupid when we get you to our base. Don't want anything to happen to your little girlfriend here." The dark red haired male laughs gripping Wendy's jaw in his hand roughly.
Wendy glared at the male while Yugi grit his teeth. The male annoyed he couldn't get a rise out of the spikey haired brat let's go of the girls face in exchange to pull her hair, making her Yelp slightly. "Alister! Knock it off!" The man in front of them glared back at the skinnier male who let go off Wendy's hair reluctantly huffing. "Why'd you even bother getting the girl anyway Raffie?"
The male ignored him as they keep walking while the two youngsters hung. Yugi looked at Wendy apologetically. She just shook her head giving him an encouraging smile. Yugi felt terrible for dragging the bluenette into this mess thankfully she didn't feel that way about it.
The trek through the woods was endless so endless that the backside of Wendy's and Yugi's clothes ended up ripping. "Ahh!" The two cried out in surprise as they both landed on their asses.
Alister didn't miss a beat grabbing Wendy's arm forcefully pulling a magic sealing cuff on her wrist, "Think you two are gonna get away now?" He yanked Yugi to his feet cuffing him as well. Yugi didn't like nor understood the feeling the cuff on his wrist. It made him feel strangely weaker. The Sabertooth growled behind the two kids as they ran to keep closer to the Blonde male rather than the Cruel dark red haired male and the viscous Tiger behind them. Yugi grasped Wendy's hands in his keeping her close to him making sure the man behind them didn't touch her again like he was doing.
"Where are you taking us??" Yugi demanded as suddenly the earth went down hill as they got to an underground cavern hideout they were using. It was dimly lit as they walked. Wendy held tightly to Yugi to avoid tripping, her eyes struggling to adjust to the darkness.
Alister wanting desperately to just shove the two brats down the incline, addressed his male companion. "You bringing the brats to Dartz or they going straight to the dungeon?"
Raffie or Rafael as Alister called him earlier retorts. "Did you forget that the master wanted to see this brat to make sure it's the same brat." He grumbled as the paths started branching into double openings as he takes the left leading them to a hollowed out cavern. Further inside was a Male standing before a slumbering creature. Yugi could barely make out what the thing was.
"welcome back you two.." The male with turquoise colored hair and teal green eyes look at the 4 as they approach him. "Hmm? What's this girl doing here? Rafael..." He looks to the man in front.
"This stupid brat Yugi was protecting her. I figured I'd drag her along just to annoy those Fairies." Suddenly as if Rafael was on puppet strings, he was thrown sideways into the wall. "Aghh!" He groans rubbing his head as it connects his body landing on the ground.
"You forget yet again. Those Fairy brats can wipe us out!" Alister laughs at his words. "What Fairies? There were only 4 of them in the guild! Our luck peaked, they're all out to sea except 3 dragon slayers and a celestial wizard!" Dartz looked surprised by Alisters news. He smirks looking at Wendy flicking his wrist as her body moved itself towards him. "E-eck!" She squeaks in surprise as her body moved until it was inches from his grip as he grasped the girl by the hair.
"Wendy..!" Yugi fists his hands feeling helpless finally realizing the cuffs were suffocating his magic. "So she's a Fairy as well. No matter, throw her in the cell with our dear guest Yugi." He pushed Wendy back towards Yugi both kids glare at the male. "What do you want with me? How do you know who I am!? I'm not from this world!" The three men laugh in unison as the two now very confused mages.
Dartz, wearing white and teal robes that left his arms in thin sleeves, now smirking. "Yugi Muto.. oh I've always known about you. You and your friends. You'll have to believe me when I say there is another version of this world, events very similar took place. Another you wound up here in another Fiore, your friends gained the trust of another fairy tail.. oh yes it's playing out almost similarly in this world. You wonder how we are here in another dimension? Well you can thank our Dragon God Leviathan for that. Breaking through the dimension barrier to bring us to another version, another reality with the same events happening. It's almost too good to be true!" He cackles walking closer to get in Yugi's face.
"This face... oh it was utter joy watching you fall to pieces when each of your new friends and old friends, bit the dust." Yugi backed a step away from the man startled by the information he was handing them. Another reality? Another dimension..? It's all happening again and we didn't know what was to happen?! Panic half streaked across his face making Dartz laugh.
"Take them to the dungeon... unconscious." The minute that word came out of Dartz mouth Yugi felt a sharp sting on his back and head as Alister sent a large jolt through him, the last thing he saw was Wendy falling down on the ground next to him.

Happy wasn't the sneakiest Exeed around, but fearing for his friends sake and to help Lucy and the others out, he flew after the bad guys. Quietly landing on a tree close behind them he darted from tree to tree listening to the two talk, he even caught their names. Well one full name and a nickname. Raffie and Alister.
And from the sound of their conversation, they weren't the only ones everyone would be dealing with. Happy kept low as he continued following them as they headed north up the mountain behind Fairy tail. Before even reaching the peak the hill they had been climbing was going down into a descent. Far ahead Happy could see an opening to a cavern.
Wondering if he should continue to follow or go back and warn the others. He bristled his fur and kept going slowly going from tree to tree to carefully following behind the rocks in the cavern. And when there was no rocks to hide behind he slowly glided through the cavern after them.
Suddenly the cavern branches out in two directions the group going into the left opening.
Happy slowly follows behind them wondering what was going on. Another name to remember Dartz the true mastermind behind the rogue mages. Happy watched Dartz make his own minion fly into the wall. With what magic Happy wasn't sure of as soon after he was making Wendy walk towards him.
Since he was too far away for any dialogue he watched their expressions. Some of it wasn't good whatever it was. Happy blinked for a second and then the two young mages were on the ground out cold as he watched the buffer of the two Raffie pick up Wendy and Yugi and carry them out of the large room towards happy's direction.
Happy doubled back into the main route in the cavern ducking behind a rock as the man carried the two through there to take them through the right path. He followed close behind. The cavern branched out further leading through room for room which were giant rest areas for each baddie had.
There were three rooms in total the last room having someone in it as the male passed him by going through the back. Happy took to the air above the two quickly and quietly as the buff male carrying the two unconscious kids walked through as he followed.
luckily the one the buffer male passed by was distracted with a porn magazine.
By the time happy caught up and floated up close to the ceiling the male had tossed the two into a dungeon with a thick iron door. He slams it shut locking it before turning and walking out taking the key with him. With a slam of an even bigger door behind him, Happy dropped to the ground and looked through the cell door.
"Wendy! Wendy! Can you hear me?" The blue neko squeezed himself through the bars barely avoiding getting stuck. He runs to the side of the bluenette girl and shakes her arm. She groans slightly opening her eyes slowly.
"H-happy..?" She moves slowly to sit up holding her head still rattling from the lightning that went through her body. She pets Happy's head. "Howd you find us?" Happy smiled a little.
"Lucy sent me after you both to find out their location. Are you both ok?" She nods holding her wrist out to the cat. "They locked our magic but we're okay... tho I think Yugi-San isn't going to be.." The bluenette starts rubbing the male who was out cold on the ground laying on his side.
"Yugi-San! Yugi-san..!"
He couldn't hear her. In his own mind it was like he was reliving a life that wasn't his and yet his.
He felt his body moving on its own as he entered the Guild. It was loud and filled with many mages. He felt himself waving at a group of them. Suddenly the image changes and the guild is in a disarray completely crumbled.
People screaming as bodies started piling up. In the sky he could see a giant dragon, as big as Slyfer the sky dragon... the ones he could still see alive were Lucy with two other guild members he didn't recognize and the Dragon slayers.
One of them was a much taller blonde with a scar on his face, lightning surging around this man. The twin dragons from the other guild was there as well as they starred down the dragon.
"Yugi!!!" I could hear Joey crying out for me as I turn to look at him as he grabbed me and pulled me out of the line of fire. I look in my friends direction to see them fighting three males dressed in black garments, just like the two from before.
Suddenly Lucy and the 2 mages got in front of us. "You boys stay safe!! It's after the 4 of you!" The male with dark blue hair cried out.
Its like everything fast forward and soon the mages protecting them were gone. They're bodies laying in broken messes on the ground.
"No..." everything slowed down as he saw Joey being thrown into the ground as lightning used him as a pincushion...Kaiba was swallowed by shadows from the third mysterious mage.
Yami looked at me desperately. "Yugi... live!" Yami opened a dark portal which swallowed my body as I reached for him. "YAMI!!!!" His face vanish as the portal closed.
Xxx
"Yugi-San!!! Yugi-San!!" Wendy desperately shook the now screaming male tears were falling from his closed eyes. "YUGI-SAN!!! WAKE UP!!!" She screams which broke through the males unconsciousness as he jerked into a sitting position. He was gasping for air shaking and sweating heavily as tears rolled down his face.
Wendy touched his shoulder which made him jerk before he looked at her. Pain and insurmountable sadness flooded his face and expression. Wendy looked stricken when she saw all this in his face.
"Yugi-San... your safe.." She grasps his trembling hands in hers. The boys tears ran heavier as he looked at the sky mage. "Wendy... your alive.." The memories that flashed in his mind weren't his own, yet it was no doubt it was his friends in those memories.
He felt something small and fluffy hug his side. He looked down to see a very worried Happy. The neko was burying his face in Yugi's side trying to comfort him with a hug. "Happy.. y-your here..?" Tears still feel from the boys eyes as he looked from one to the other before taking his hands back from Wendy to wipe his tear stained face.
"Where.. where are we.." He speaks his voice less shaken but still filled with sadness. Wendy took his hand back and squeezed it. "We're being held prisoners by that man.. h-he has a living Dragon.." She looks disturbed by the words coming out of her mouth. Yugi nodded his brain swimming as he remembered the Dragon attacking everyone in the memories that weren't his.
How and why did he have these memories..? Where did they come from..?
Wendy turned her attention to Happy. "We need to get you back out that door Happy. Get into position while we make some noise." She whispered as the cat squeezed back through the bars and floated up by the ceiling.
"Hey! You big ugly bullies get us out of here!!" She started shaking the bars, which made large clattering noises as she shook the door. Yugi started yelling too as the grate door open with a heavy squeak. Yugi looked up at the ceiling as Happy was now gone through the opening.
"Oi... you little brats.." The third rogue mage, a fairly medium sized man someone shorter than both Kaiba and Joey stood in front of the cell door.
His brown disheveled hair was thick under a pair of what looked like biker goggles his light blue eyes gleaming through the bars at them. His outfit looked that of someone who spent their days fixing bikes rather than assisting in mass genoside.
"Shut the hell up!" The shadows in the room started to move. Wendy yelped clinging to Yugi as the male glared at the mage.
Yugi could tell that it was his magic making the shadows bend and move even in the dimly lit dungeon. "Otherwise I'll give you guys something to really scream about..." One of the monsterous looking shadows got closer to Wendy as he shoved her behind him.
"Stay away from her... or we'll have a problem." The look he gave the male made him slightly flinch not used to seeing the look of someone unafraid of their own shadow. It ticked him off.
"Brave guy I see... can't wait to see that look disappear when I swallow your friends into the shadows.." The male left the dungeon as the door slammed shut.

The daylight was waning. The injured males were finally coming around slowly. The one everyone was waiting to wake up was Yami.
"Natsu-San those bastards sounded like they know Fairy tail.. have you seen them before?" Sting approached the pink haired male who had his eyes on Joey and Kaiba who were checking Yami, who was still unconscious.
"They sounded familiar with us, but I have never ever seen those men in my life.. Does Joey or Seto know those men for them to be familiar with Yugi?" Natsu racked his brain to make sure he never saw the two before nor their magic. Not one of them smelt familiar.
Joey stood up and walked over to the two dragon slayers chatting. "Honest to God me and Kaiba have never seen those low lives in our lives. So either this is another universe all together where they simultaneously know the both of us, or it's one giant drug hallucination." Joey clearly not understanding the difference made Sting sweat while Natsu looked at the blonde confused.
That same moment Yami woke with sweat running down his face. "Ohh.. Oh Ra no.." He got up on his feet Kaiba trying to slow him down. "Pharaoh! Pharaoh! Get a hold of yourself!" He had his hand on the shorter males arm, Yami not even paying attention to his rival as he searched the guild with his eyes.
"No.. no.. why didn't anyone stop them.. we gotta get them back!" Natsu, Sting and Lucy ran over to Yami who was sweating, twitching and on the verge of tears.
"Yami! Yami what's wrong?!" Joey tried to console his friend but the Pharaoh was a mess. "We need to get Yugi back! H-he's in far worse danger than we know..!" Everyone looked at him confused.
In their confusion Yami broke free from Kaiba and dashed towards the broken wall. Natsu was a bit faster than him and grabbed him. Yami's emotions were going nuts, not having his partner, his other half to keep him in complete cool and in check, even his magic was going nuts. Natsu was thrown back as Yami's dark magic surrounded him. His hands were clenched his face covered in terror and sadness.
"That dumbass!" Natsu on his feet in second, grabbed the male and shook him vigorously. "You think loosing your cool is gonna help get them back!? Your best friend back!?" Yami gasps his eyes which were blank and black returned to their purple hue, tears now freely falling down his face.
"N-natsu.." He looked up at the very intimidating pink haired male. He set Yami on his feet not letting go of his shirt. "Speak. Calmly slowly and without freaking out." He let go of his shirt as Joey and Kaiba run to him, Joey hugging the short spikey haired male.
"Don't scare us man... We'll get Yugi back don't worry." After Yami calmed down they sat him down on the benches which Gajeel and Rogue had reset up from them getting thrown back into the wall.
"Memories.. not of my own. But everything felt the same. We ended up here.. came to this guild.. but instead of being empty it was loud crazy and smelled of booze." He scrunched his nose which made Gajeel snicker.
"Things went by fast.. suddenly the guild was destroyed.. and most of the members were dead..." The looks of horror spread around the room. Lucy covered her mouth, Natsu grit his teeth and Gajeel looked uneasy. "There's this large dragon...its as big as Slyfer the sky dragon.." The mages looked confused but rather interrupt to ask what that was they let him continue.
"All that's left was... Natsu, Gajeel Wendy... you two." He pointed to the twin slayers. "And a tall blonde.. with a scar on his face with Lightning magic." Gajeel and Natsu looked at each other. "Laxus." The two said in unison.
Yami continued his hands shaking a bit. "There was also Lucy with these two other mages.. a male with dark blue hair and a woman with red hair. The three of them were taking on the two who attacked us along with another male... while you dragon slayers were going after this man and the Dragon..the male mage told us to stay back that they were after us.. then like flashes of complete and utter horror..." Yami shudders tears falling down his face as he sweats heavily.
He shut his eyes feeling the images behind his eyes. "You.. you were all dead.." He chokes out. Everyone was in turmoil and confused on how it could've happen. Natsu looked like he was going to burst into flames. Everyone else looked especially pissed about the so called future event that Yami witnessed.
"They cornered us.. before they could get all of us. I used my magic to send Yugi away. The man demanded me to tell him where Yugi went. When I refused to answer... all I felt was sudden pain... I think me Joey and Kaiba were killed." Yami lied about seeing Joey and Kaiba die in front of him and Yugi, it was traumatic enough without telling them what happened to them as well.
The silence, the dread. It filled the guild as everyone were left to their thoughts about the possible, no actual future that happened to them in a different reality, dimension or whatever. Natsu was the first to react to something, anything as he slammed his foot through the guild wall in pure rage.
"To hell with that future!!! We make our own future! And I swear as a member of Fairy Tail, that I will burn away the future those bastards plan for us! Even without our guild mates!"
As if it was planned to the exact second. Natsu was thrown from the wall and sent flying towards the ceiling before crashing in a heap on the floor.
"Natsu!!! What did you do this time!? Why's the guild a wreck!?" Speak of the devil and he shall appear. Laxus the grandson to the Master of Fairy tail was in the entry way, dressed in a purple button down shirt black pants and nice dress shoes.
"Laxus!?" Lucy and the three other Dragon slayers cried in surprise. Natsu recovered pulling his ass off the ground and rushed towards the taller dragon slayer.
"Laxus, I thought you were on the cruise!?" The blonde male shook his head. "Nah I owed Ichiya a favor so I skipped out on the cruise. I just got back from Blue Pegasus."
Yami Joey and Kaiba looked impressed and curious about the taller Dragon slayer. At the same moment Happy flew in to the guild from the hole in the wall. "Natsu!!! I found them, I found them!" He flew into his best friends arms as Natsu hugged him.
"Nice job Happy. Where are they?" Lucy walked over to her partner. Happy looked at Lucy smiling. "In a cavern hide out underground. It's just up the mountain behind the guild." Natsu grinned hugging his buddy. "Way to go Happy!"
Since night time had fallen everyone camped out at the guild. After explaining everything to Laxus he agreed to join in.
Especially after the bastards tarnished Fairy tails name and even took Wendy along with Yugi. In the mean time, they started formulating a plan to get into the hideout and demolish the place.

Several hours sitting in the cell together. Wendy looked worried at Yugi. He was deep in thought and focused on something. She sighed before scooting closer to him which made him look at her.
"You okay, Wendy?" She nodded brushing her loose hair out of her face. The two young mages held on to each other their hands gripping the other, fearing what was gonna happen. Yugi was more mad than fearful, he only feared them hurting Wendy to get to him.
The dim light in the dungeon changed suddenly when a light magic portal appeared in the back of the Dungeon.
A figure stepped through wearing the same black outfit that Kaiba had described. Yugi got up and ran to the bar door. "Hey you!" The figure gasped in surprise looking the two of them over.
"Now how did you two get caught so soon? You both better get out of there before they kill you."
(a/n and that's where I'm gonna cut off this was a dense chapter I've been working on almost 2 days because of how I had to word the damn thing. I hope you guys do enjoy it!)
