Yugi: PD is the kind of person who reads spoilers…yeah. She does have something to say though:
Dear readers, I'm going to totally honest, I do not like some of the dialogue in this episode. I'm not going to be typing out some of the lines because it would make me very uncomfortable if I did. Instead, those lines will be implied. I'm saying this to clarify that I didn't forget those lines, I just don't want to type them out for…reasons.
Jjlol: You're welcome!
S Danyal Allen: And especially the teddy bear…I'm getting an ominous feeling now. Thank you!
Wesst1: Rebecca won't be with them, that will be season 4, but she will still watch this episode.
CorinnetheAnime: Glad you liked it! I had that reaction planned from the start. ;)
Above the Winter Moonlight: Always a pleasure to make people happy! I already know what happens, now I just have to wait to actually watch it, hopefully it won't take too long. I'm finally done and hopefully will have more time to write.
James95: Heh, Rebecca's going to see this one, hehehehe…
Reydrago: Don't you mean Duelist Kingdom is closed? ^^' Battle City is the next arc. Almost had Yami find out his real name. No spoilers. ;)
Zombyra: Rebecca will be here. If LK did abridge DSoD, let's just say, he has a lot of possibilities, especially focusing on one character and his ego. ;)
Rittie: Don't worry, I'll be careful. Enjoy the chapter!
FANactic Writer: Everyone keeps mentioning the…Teddy (there's that ominous feeling), and I can already hear the music in the distance.
SuperNova23: Heh heh…^^'
LadyRaider92: Yeah, sometime the abridged series can go too far with some of their jokes, they even mention in another video that Shadi can be offensive.
AnimeGirl4891: It's almost here! Just need to get through some filler.
Thedarkpokemaster: We'll have to see what Tea thinks of abridged Rebecca and…that teddy…I'm getting an ominous feeling.
Guest: Glad you like it, enjoy the next chapter!
Bunnychu15: That Teddy…*shivers* The Evil Council of Doom will be in another fanfic after this one. ^^'
Louisa: I was originally going to save Rebecca for season 4, but I found a way for her to be in the chapter! I plan on having Marik, Ishizu, and Odion watching them too, I just need to find a way to get them to a computer.
Itachiforever342: I actually don't know what Shadi is supposed to be a reference to. ^^' Ha, the internet will do that to you!
Saffira Artemis: Oh wow, didn't know I could make people laugh that hard! ;)
Guest #2: Ha, you'll have to wait and see!
The Sith'ari: That Teddy…*shivers*. Rebecca will watch the video, but she won't meet up with the gang until season 4.
Dragon Goddess: He'll find out during Battle City. Oh Marik will have a lot to say about that part and the series when he comes in.
TTY7: I can't believe the movie is out, and I'm writing a couple one-shots related to it while I wait for sub to come out. I'm glad I don't have any summer classes so I can spend more time writing this.
Rimant451: I can't believe it either! Heh, the big premiere was a little distracting ^^', but I still got my work done.
Lalalei: I'd give it a 9/10 (based on what I've read). I'm not sure I can wait that long for a subbed version, and this is just my own theory, but if the DVD is taking that long to come out, does this mean there will be a lot of DVD extras?
Guest #3: I'VE UPDATED!
TheLoZKing: That demon… *shivers*
Yugi: PD does not own anything except her computer that she is using to constantly check for more movie info and pictures.
-Abridged series.-
"Mind speaking."
Normal dialogue.
"You finished sending that email so we can watch the next video?" Tristan asked.
"Yep," Yugi said clicking the send button. "I think she'll have a blast watching this."
Tea looked at the screen and saw who Yugi sent the email too. She sighed at the name on the screen, but stopped as Yugi closed the window and brought up the video.
/
At her place, Rebecca was notified of a new email. When she saw who it was from, she squealed excitingly.
"Oh Yugi-Darling, I knew you wouldn't forget me!" She then fixed herself. "Ok, let's calm down and see what he sent me," she said to herself before squealing again in her head. Rebecca noticed that Yugi mentioned a video about their duel from way back, but different. Rebecca shrugged, opened the link and started watching the video.
Back at the game shop, Yugi was about to start the video when the door to the room opened. Everyone turned around.
"Hello everyone," Solomon said coming into the room.
"Hey Grandpa, did you need something?"
"Oh I don't need anything. I just wanted to see what has gotten you kids laughing and enjoying yourselves."
"Wait, you want to watch one of these videos?" Joey asked.
"Well you know me, curious as always. I hope you don't mind."
"Of course not, right Yugi?" Tea looked over and noticed Yugi was blushing and had a look of uncertainty on his face. "Yugi, you're not embarrassed that he wants to watch this with us, are you?"
"Huh? No, not at all! I'm not embarrassed that he wants to join us. I'm embarrassed about what he might see, considering what we've seen so far."
"I'm sure it'll be fine," Tea responded.
"Yeah, you're right," Yugi said calming down and his blush disappearing. Solomon sat down in a chair nearby and Yugi started the video.
-Yugi: Grandpa! You're okay!-
-Solomon: Yugi, come give your grandpa a big hug. – Everyone smiled at the image of Yugi jumping up to his grandpa. Solomon placed a hand over Yugi shoulder. Yugi smiled and hugged him.
-Tea: It's so emotional.-
-Yugi: Gramps, you don't blame me for everything that happened to you, do you?-
-Solomon: Yes. – Solomon paused, and then started laughing. "I should say that more often. My good old grandson getting us into all these situations," he said jokingly and ruffling Yugi's hair. Yugi tried smiling, knowing Solomon was only joking. Everyone else laughed along.
"So what are these?" Solomon asked as the title sequence played.
"They're videos that show our adventures, but it's different," Tristan said.
"Well, I can see why you kids would enjoy this kind of stuff. It sounds interesting and fun," Solomon said.
-Solomon: I'm so proud of you Yugi. You rescued my soul and you became the king of card games. By the way, what happened to Bakura?-
-Joey: Oh we left him back on the island. Nyeheheheheh. – "We did what?" Joey asked.
-Bakura: Hello? Anybody? I want to go home! – "Yugi, you didn't really leave him on the island did you?" Solomon asked.
"N-No Grandpa, remember not everything about these videos is true," Yugi replied quickly.
-Yugi: Now that you're out of the hospital, you can go back to running that worthless card game shop that nobody ever visits. The basement has seemed so empty without you. – Yugi blushed in embarrassment and covered his face with his hands. He peeked behind his fingers to see Solomon staring back at him.
"I'll have you know that this shop happens to be one of the best in this city. Why I've had more success with this store than anything else in the world!" Solomon proclaimed, then started laughing. "And what's this about our basement…?"
"Let's move on!" Yugi said quickly.
-Rebecca: Hello.-
-Yugi: Who's that?-
-Rebecca: Hehehehe, my name's Rebecca. I'm eight years old, and I'm the number one ranked duelist in America. – The gang's mouths dropped open. "What's wrong?" Solomon asked.
"She's actually voiced by a girl," Joey said slowly.
"Is that rare in these videos?" Solomon asked. Everyone nodded slowly.
Back at her trailer, Rebecca laughed a couple times watching the video, and now she was caught up. "I'm glad I ditched that look. I look much more lady-like and mature now," she said proudly, before giggling as she imagined herself with Yugi.
-Joey: That's impossible, only grown-ups are allowed to play children's card games. – "Technically we're not adults yet," Tristan said.
"Well Duel Monsters is for everyone," Yugi said. "Not just kids."
-Rebecca: I'm looking for Solomon Moto.-
-Yugi: Who the hell is Solomon Moto?-
-Tea: Yugi that's your grandpa.-
-Yugi: He has a name!? – "Please tell me you haven't forgotten my name after all these years," Solomon said.
"What? N-Not at all," Yugi said. Solomon smiled and chuckled.
"You're right, these videos are fun," he said patting Yugi on the back. Yugi sighed and smiled.
-Solomon: Hello little girl, if you're trying to get into my will, you'd better hurry up. I could drop dead at any second, with any luck. – "E-Excuse me?" Solomon asked standing up. "I've still got a lot of years left in m-ack!" he started saying before cracking his back and sitting back down.
"Take it easy Grandpa," Yugi said.
-Rebecca: You stole my Blue-Eyes White Dragon!-
-Tristan: Aw, she's so cute.-
-Teddy: She wasn't talking to you! – "W-What the…" Joey started but couldn't finish. Everyone just stared at the screen, not knowing what to say.
Rebecca was the on the same boat. She thought back to the days when she had Teddy with her, and was now thinking of them in a…different way.
-Joey: Nyeh! The bear is possessed!-
-Rebecca: Hehe, don't be silly. It's just a regular teddy bear. – "Are you blind or something?" Rebecca asked, now realizing that this Rebecca was not her.
-Yugi: Well okay, but it did seem kind of like…-
-Teddy: You'll be the first to die! – Everyone shivered at the comment.
-Rebecca: I want you to return the card you stole from me.-
-Solomon: You'll never get it back. It's mine, mine I tell you!-
-Yugi: What my grandpa's trying to say is that he would never steal a card from another duelist. You must be mistaken.-
-Solomon: It's mine, all mine! – "Oh yeah, that's complete proof that he'd never steal from someone," Joey said chuckling. Solomon turned to him.
"Well, just remember who taught you all the tricks and secrets of dueling."
-Rebecca: I don't believe you! I challenge you to a duel old man, and if I win, I get back the Blue-Eyes you stole from me.-
-Solomon: Bring it on you little bi…-
-Yugi: Grandpa, no! – Solomon blushed in embarrassment for the first time while watching the video. "I'd never say something like that, especially in front of a young child."
"I'm glad you don't either," Yugi said.
-Yugi: You just got out of the hospital, you're in no fit-state to play a harmless children's card game. I'll duel her in your place.-
-Rebecca: Fine by me. I'll win either way, isn't that right Teddy?-
-Teddy: You're mother plays card games in hell! – "Please tell me this is the last time we hear from that bear in the video," Tea said.
"Hopefully it will be," Solomon said.
Rebecca too was getting antsy from Teddy, and was actually sort of glad that she didn't have the bear anymore, since it would've been awkward if she still had it after watching this video.
-Yugi: …Okay…-
-Boy: Look daddy, it's a Blue-Eyes! A real one!-
-Man: It's just a statue you ignorant child. By the way, the Easter Bunny isn't real either, and I'm not even your real father. – "Well that's…depressing," Tea said. "Why even tell all of that to your child?"
-Kid: Oh wow! A theme park based around a children's card game! This is the most absurd concept ever! – "Better not tell Kaiba that," Tristan said as the others laughed.
-Yugi: Hey Mokuba, do you mind if we play a card game here?-
-Mokuba: Sorry Yugi, we're fully booked. But since you saved my immortal soul from the clutches of an evil mastermind, I supposed I can allow it just this once.-
-Yugi: Wow, you can do that?-
-Mokuba: My brother is Seto Kaiba, I can decide who lives and who dies. – "Wow, that's cool yet terrifying at the same time," Tristan said.
"Better not say or do anything that upsets him," Yugi said chuckling.
-Rebecca: I summon Witch of the Black Forest.-
-Yugi: I summon Disgruntled Celtic Guardian. – "Disgruntled? Don't you mean 'Obnoxious'?" Yugi asked.
-Solomon: That's strange, this card game seems awfully familiar. Rebecca, what's your last name?-
-Rebecca: If you must know, it's Hawkins and yes, my grandfather is Professor Arthur Hawkins, the man you betrayed.-
-Tristan: Holy **** on a **** sandwich with **** on top, and a side helping of ****. – Everyone laughed while Solomon stared at the screen. "You better not say that around others," he said.
"Heh, it's kind of my thing in these videos, although I'm not sure how they'll top that if they do it again," Tristan replied.
-Yugi: My grandpa would never do something like that!-
-Rebecca: It's the truth! The voices in my head told me so, isn't that right Teddy?-
"Not more of that teddy bear," Yugi said in defeat. Everyone then tensed up at Teddy's next statement. Nobody talked for a moment.
"Does anyone else feel…unclean, or something like that?" Tea asked. Everyone else nodded.
Rebecca also felt uneasy at the statement. "Okay, now I'm really thankful I don't have that bear anymore."
-Solomon: Rebecca please, your grandfather and I were very close. We met in Egypt on an archeological dig, where we bonded over our mutual hatred of young people. He also shared with me some very controversial theories. – "Huh? How did they get footage of...?"
"Just roll with it Grandpa, it's not that important," Yugi replied.
-Arthur: I believe that the Ancient Egyptian's use to play Yu-Gi-Oh in their spare time. – "The game's called Duel Monsters," Joey corrected.
-Solomon: Pull the other one.-
-Arthur: No really, I mean it.-
-Solomon: Next you'll be telling me that the Romans played Pokémon. – "There's that 'Pokémon' thing mentioned again," Tristan pointed out.
"Did the Romans really play 'Pokémon,' or whatever that game is called?" Tea asked.
"Well, you never know," Yugi said.
"That could be something Arthur and I could find out in the future," Solomon added.
-Arthur: Look at this card Solomon. See how it barely resembles these ancient hieroglyphs. – "I see a good resemblance," Joey said.
-Solomon: My God you're right. This could revolutionize the field of Egyptology…somehow. – "How about helping to create one of the most popular games ever," Solomon said.
-Solomon: Just then the tomb collapsed around us. We had been trapped inside a cold and desolate place, far from human contact. But since we were both very old, we were used to that sort of thing. – "Hey, my grandpa isn't that old, and he's with other people all the time!" Rebecca pouted.
At the game shop, Yugi was again trying to explain to his grandfather to not take the video too seriously.
-Arthur: I say Solomon, let's have a card game to decide which one of us gets to live.-
-Solomon: That's the sickest thing I've ever heard, let's do it. – "Oh it wasn't that extreme," Solomon said rolling his eyes. "And it wasn't sick either."
-Rebecca: I am so sick of your lying lies you big fat liar!-
-Tea: Shut up you hussy! – "Excuse me?" Rebecca said a little annoyed. - Yugi's grandpa would never lie. He's the wisest man I've ever met.-
-Solomon: Where am I? What day is it? I like pudding. – Yugi smirked, and in a split second covered his mouth as Solomon approached him. "You don't really think I spout out random stuff like that, do you Yugi?" he asked.
"N-N-N-No Grandpa. I was just laughing at…uh…t-the joke, not you, the joke," Yugi tried explaining. A smile appeared on Solomon's face as he ruffled Yugi's hair again.
-Rebecca: I sacrifice all my monsters in order to power up my Shadow Ghoul!-
-Solomon: Hmm *flashback* I surrender Arthur.-
-Yugi: You win Rebecca, I surrender.-
-Gang: Nyeh! – Everyone laughed at their reactions.
-Rebecca: I won, now hand over my card.-
-Solomon: If you insist.-
-Rebecca: You tore it! You ruined the collector's value! How am I going to sell it on EBay now? – "I wasn't ever going to…" Rebecca started but then heard her counterpart say another line. "No, just no," she said.
-Arthur: Rebecca behave yourself.-
-Rebecca: Grandpa!-
-Solomon: Arthur is that really you?-
-Arthur: Yes, I've decided to show up at the last minute in order to tie up all the loose ends. Rebecca, did you know that Yugi actually won the duel?-
-Rebecca: Grandpa, I won!-
-Arthur: Take a look at this card. It's called Soul Release. If Yugi had played this, you would have lost.-
-Rebecca: But he didn't play it. He surrendered.-
-Arthur: Yes, but he could have won, therefore he was the winner. – "Wait, what?" Yugi asked.
-Rebecca: But Yugi lost.-
-Arthur: And that is why he won. – Yugi shook his head. "Sorry, but can anyone tell me how that's supposed to make sense. I surrendered to teach Rebecca about honoring a monsters sacrifice, but I still surrendered, so I lost. I didn't win."
"I guess you could say that you won since you got your message through to her," Joey said.
"And you became friends with her," Tristan added.
"And thankfully just friends," Tea said quietly to herself. Yugi smiled at all of them.
-Rebecca: What!?-
-Arthur: Allow me to make things even more confusing for you. You see, when Solomon lost the duel, he did so in order to save my life.-
-Arthur: Solomon, you shouldn't have surrendered.-
-Solomon: I wish I knew how to quit you. – Solomon shook his head and said a classic 'you kids' statement.
-Arthur: Even though I sacrificed monsters during my duel with Solomon, I never failed to honor their sacrifice. You see Rebecca, with great cards comes great responsibility. – "Ain't that the truth," Yugi said thinking about all the duels he and Yami have encountered.
-Rebecca: I'm sorry Yugi.-
-Yugi: That's okay. Here, take this card that I won. I didn't even want it anyway. – "That wasn't the real reason you gave her that card, was it Yugi?" Solomon asked.
Yugi smiled. "No, I treasure all my cards. I just gave it to her as a reminder of what I taught her."
-Rebecca: Does this make me the King of Card Games? – "Ah-hem, Queen of Card Games," Rebecca corrected.
-Yugi: Hell no! – Yugi could help but let out a laugh, followed by everyone else.
-Tristan: Isn't anybody else worried about the evil teddy bear?
-Arthur: What evil teddy bear? – "Uh, that evil teddy bear," Tristan said as the video zoomed in to the bear. Rebecca was also starting to feel chills.
-[this episode guest starred safty as Rebecca] – "That's still cool that other people can voice act in these videos too. It's a nice little change," Joey said.
-RM Tristan: Put down your weapons! You have twenty seconds to comply! – Tristan laughed. "You better listen to what I say, or else you'll be in trouble."
"We'd just shut you down then," Joey said laughing. Tristan rolled his eyes.
-Bakura: Hello? Is there anybody out there? I'm still stuck on this bloody island! Why doesn't anybody answer? – "Uh-oh, we still forgot about him," Yugi said.
*growl*
-Bakura: Oh look a kitty cat. Hello there kitty! Oh no don't do that! Bugger off kitty! – "I'd stop calling him 'kitty' then," Tea said. "We better go save him."
"Agreed," everyone else said laughing.
/
At her place, Rebecca had just finished the video and thought about it. "So, why would Yugi send me a video like this? Just for fun? Was I supposed to get something out of it?"
Rebecca then got up and went find Arthur to ask him something, a smile appeared on her face. "I guess I'll just have to go to Domino City and ask him. I'll see you soon, Yugi-Darling."
/
Everyone had left after realizing how late it was. Yugi was getting tired as well and got ready for bed. "So that's what we've been watching," he said as he got into bed.
"I can see why you enjoy those videos," Solomon chuckled. "I should watch them when I have the time. Well, I'll see you in the morning, good night Yugi."
"Good night Grandpa."
Yugi: Alright, time to see if PD will finally get off the computer for a few minutes *knocks on door*
?: Yes?
Yugi: Ah! Melvin!? What are you doing here!?
Yami Marik: If you must know, I'm here to make sure no one bothers PD while she is searching for more movie info.
Yugi: Yeah, well I need to get inside.
Yami Marik: I'll let you in, it only costs you one hug!
Yugi: Never mind.
Yami Marik: You know, you could always PM her if you want to know her thoughts about the movie, spoiler or spoiler-free.
Yugi: I know. Anyway, hope you all enjoyed the chapter. Have a nice day, and we'll see you all next time!
(I know it's been forever since my last update. But since it's now summer vacation, I'll have more time to write this. And I'm hoping to get the next chapter out on a certain day in June that's coming up. All you Yugi fans should know what day that is ;)
Next Time: Episode 21- Massively Multiplayer Online Children's Card Game. Duel Standby!
