I wanted to upload this chapter earlier in the day, but I still needed to write some of it because I was busy during Thanksgiving. But hey, at least you all get another chapter to read!

Can't believe this crazy year is almost over. I'll have one more chapter ready before the year is out, so keep on the lookout for it! Nothing much else to say. Please enjoy! Once again, I don't own anything.


-Abridged series.-

"Mind speaking"

Normal dialogue.


Okay, everyone here knows the drill. Yugi's group, Mokuba and Kaiba, and the Ishtar siblings are watching these videos, that hasn't changed.

But in another dimension, a new viewer approaches.


"It's time!" Obelisk said as he and Slifer were looking over at the gold ball nearby. "Do you have the screen up?"

Slifer sighed. "I still think this is a terrible idea, but at the very least, if he gets enraged, you're getting all the blame."

Obelisk paused for a moment, and turned back to Slifer. "With our combined power, we can take him on if something happens, we've done it before."

"Yeah, with the help of the Pharaoh's other monsters."

"That's beside the point. It will be fine, you need to chill." Obelisk and Slifer walked over to the gold ball and sat down on both sides. "Screen up?"

Slifer snapped his fingers and a white screen appeared. With another snap, a video popped up. "There, are you happy?"

Obelisk nodded. "Now we need to wake this guy up," he said pointing at the ball.

Slifer paused. "Okay, if we do that, we're dead! You know how much Ra doesn't like being disturbed when he's resting!"

"Yeah, but look." Both looked down at the ball and saw it move slightly. "See, he's starting to wake up. He just needs a little help. This is where you come in. Think you can give him a little wake-up knock?"

"Why me?"

"Have you seen my fists?" Obelisk asked showing his hands. "One knock from me and I'll knock him out right then and there. You have much smaller hands… claws. Therefore, you're the best one for the job."

Slifer didn't say anything for a minute. "Sometimes I really question why I still hang out with you." He took a deep breath and sighed. "I'm sorry, my answer is still no!"

Now Obelisk was the one who sighed. "Well then, I guess I have no choice."

Obelisk raised one of his hands and made a fist. He then poked one finger out of the first and aimed it at the gold ball. Holding back as much of his strength as he could, he gave the ball a poke. "Ra! You in there?" Slifer was about to say something when Obelisk poked the ball again. "Ra, we need you!"

"Okay, he's not waking up! Just forget about it already!" Slifer said, his voice was starting to get nervous.

"Third time's the charm," was his answer before he poked the ball a third time. As soon as he did, the heat in the room started to rise. Obelisk and Slifer moved over a little as the ball started to flare up. The ball then began to break up, and the fire intensified as Ra emerged. Obelisk was now starting to think back on his plan. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all.

Ra glanced between the two other Egyptian God monsters before turning to Slifer. Slifer immediately waved his hand…claws in the air. "It wasn't me! I swear!"

Ra then looked over at Obelisk, who was now looking more like he was regretting everything. "You better have a good explanation for all of this!" Ra said slowly.

Obelisk gulped. He should probably tell the truth in order to keep Ra's wrath to a minimum… even though it was a little too late for that. "I… I just…" He paused again and the spoke fast, "I just wanted us to watch a video together!"

Ra raised an eyebrow. "What video?" Obelisk pointed at the screen that had the video up. Ra looked over, and then back at Obelisk. "That wouldn't happen to be the same video the Pharaoh is watching?"

"It is, and to be honest, they're pretty funny. I've seen a couple in my spare time," Obelisk admitted.

Slifer sighed. "And maybe I have watched one or two…" he trailed off.

Ra looked back and forth at Slifer and Obelisk, and then back at the screen. After what felt like an hour, Ra sighed and spoke up. "If this means the two of you will start taking your training and our mission for the Pharaoh seriously, then just this one time, I'll watch one of your videos."

Obelisk and Slifer both perked up, the former with joy and the latter in surprise. "You really mean it?" Obelisk asked.

"Just this one time!" Ra reminded them.

Slifer was still surprised. "Wow, I never would have thought he would agree to this…" Ra got situated in place, followed by Obelisk, and soon after, Slifer.

"Alright, let's get this started!" Obelisk said. With a rather large snap of his fingers (earning him a glare from the other two), the video started.

-Yami: Here at Yu-Gi-Oh, we like to think that Pokémon copies us! So there! – "You know what, why don't we just say that Duel Monsters and Pokémon copied each other, that way we can put this rivalry behind us," Tea said.

"Or we could enjoy both of them at the same time, we should try to find this Pokémon game at some point," Yugi said. "It honestly sounds fun."

-Joey: How bad is it Dr. Feelgood?-

-Doctor: Well, he was struck by lightning… in the head… So yeah, it's not looking good. – "Man, I still feel a little bad that I survived, but Odion didn't…" Joey said trailing off a little. "I mean, I'm glad he fully recovered, but still…"

-Tea: We have to help him!-

-Doctor: Medical science is already doing everything it can…-

-Tea: Screw medical science! I'm talking about friendship!-

-Doctor: I beg your pardon?-

-Tea: Friendship is the only cure for a lightning bolt to the face. – "Tea, is that your solution to everything?" Mai asked with a little tease in her voice.

"What? I mean… it can be, but not in this situation!" Tea answered, blushing a little.

Mai started laughing. "Hon, you need to be a little less excessive with the whole friendship thing. It's important yes, but other things are important too."

Tea would agree, but at the same time, Mai hadn't seen a lot of the things she had seen, and all the times friendship really did help Yugi and the others. "I can try, but no promises," she answered with a wink.

-Yami: That's right, Joey was struck by lightning and now thanks to friendship, he's okay.-

-Joey: Yep, my brain am thinking good with stuff. – "See friendship does work… with a side effect or two," Tea joked.

"Alright, I believe you," Mai said with a chuckle.

-Doctor: Look, friendship isn't going to cure this man.-

-Tea: Silence non-believer! Go back to your leeches and your potions! The power of friendship and Tristan's beautiful singing voice shall heal him! – Tristan blushed a little. "You think my singing voice is beautiful?"

Now it was Tea's turn to blush. "I've heard you sing before, and you sound really nice… But then again, that's your normal voice, I don't know how your singing voice will sound in the video."

Tristan's blush stopped. "Oh… well that killed the mood."

-Doctor: You guys are morons. Have fun staring at a guy in a coma.-

-Tristan: Lean on me, when you're not strong, and I'll be your friend. – "Huh, you actually sound kind of nice," Tea noted.

"Yeah, I kind of do," Tristan agreed. "But I swear if they make me sing 'I love you,' I might have to take that thought back."

All throughout this time, Odion was in a slight cringe at thinking back to this time, but he got a small smile when he heard Tristan singing. "I don't think singing will help me recover from a lightning bolt, but I do appreciate the thought."

Marik and Ishizu smiled at their brother. "I'm glad you're okay," Marik said.

As the title sequence played out, Obelisk turned to see if Ra was reacting to the videos. He still had a stern look on his face. "So… do you see what's going on?" No answer. "…Are you enjoying this at all?" Still no answer.

"I don't think you're going to get him to talk," Slifer said.

Obelisk shrugged. "Oh well, I'm still enjoying this." Slifer shook his head as the video continued.

-Mai: Hey Joey, remember that dream you had?-

-Joey: For the last time, I wasn't wearing a dog suit and Kaiba wasn't having dream sex with me! – Everyone was speechless. Slowly, everyone turned to Joey, who's entire face was red and sweaty.

Duke finally broke the silence. "You have some explaining to do! First of all, it's nice to know you're still into wearing dog suits!" He then placed his hand on his chest. "I am honored to awaken that desire for you, and that it has stayed with you this entire time," he teased. "And second…"

"Don't say another word!" Joey yelled, grabbing Duke's shirt and was about to go down with him. "You better shut your mouth right now or else someone's going to the hospital today!"

"Joey!" Yugi exclaimed. "I know what you're planning to do, and I know it won't be worth it!"

"Stop it Joey!" Serenity also exclaimed.

Mai leaned over to Tea. "I think these videos have finally broken him."

"You say that, but then something else happens to break all of us," she said back. Tristan was just enjoying the sight in front of him, wishing he had some popcorn. Bakura wanted to intervene, but wasn't sure how.

Eventually, things started to settle down, and Joey let go of Duke's shirt. "Not another word about this, and were good, got it?" Duke nodded. "Alright then, on with the video."

Meanwhile, as the line played out, Mokuba was hoping that Kaiba didn't hear what was being said… but unfortunately, he did.

"Mokuba, that video is starting to distract me. I need it turned down," Kaiba said, irritation prevalent in his voice.

Mokuba sighed. "Sure Seto." He turned to volume down so only he could hear the video. This time, he didn't blame Kaiba for not wanting anything to do with the video this time.

-Mai: No Joey, the other dream.-

-Joey: Oh yeah, the one where all my friends help me get back on my feet. What about it Mai?-

-Mai: I was just wondering, was I in it?-

-Joey: Aw man, if I tell Mai that she was in my dream, she might actually start to develop feelings for me. That would be very bad for some reason. Must avoid potential subplot. – "… Why would that be a bad thing?" Mai asked. "Do you not like me anymore?"

Joey started blushing again. "N-No way! I could never hate you!" After calming down a little, Joey took a breath. "I guess I was just embarrassed that you were with everyone else… but looking back at it, that was kind of stupid. I really do like ya Mai."

Mai smiled in response. "I know, I'm just teasing ya," she said with a wink, making Joey blush a little again.

-Joey: Nyeh, I wouldn't dream about you if you were the last person on Earth. Yep, my dreams are a boob free zone. Hope that makes you feel better about yourself Mai. – "No it doesn't," Mai deadpanned. Joey glanced away a little, not going to admit that he has had dreams like that before… not that 4kids will admit that.

-Joey: Man, that could've been really awkward. Luckily I am a master of subtlety-NYEEH!-

-Tea: Joey Wheeler! I am very disappoint!-

-Joey: Hey, I only let girls grab me in two specific areas. The ears are not one of them. – "And where are those two specific areas?" Tristan asked.

"None of you beeswax!" Joey quickly rebutted.

-Tea: I can't believe you didn't start a relationship with the first women who laid eyes on you. As a fanfic writer, I am extremely disgusted. I am so angry I could walk away like a pimp! – "Omph, you tell him girl!" Mai said.

Tea chuckled a little. "Thanks Mai. Although, writing fanfics about this…"

Joey turned to Tea. "Wait a sec, don't tell me you're writing things about me and Mai and showing them to everyone!"

Tea glanced at him and smirked. "Maybe I am." Joey was about to say something else when Tea started chuckling. "Oh don't worry your little head. I'm just teasing."

"Man, I can't win today…" Yugi placed his hand on Joey's shoulder. "Thanks Yug."

-Doctor: I'm glad I have such a long and villain-free life ahead of me.-

-Yami Marik: Hi there, could I get a hug? – "Oh boy, here we go," Tristan said. "If the last video indicated anything, this is gonna be good."

Marik was having different reactions, since they were now watching his evil half instead of him. Although, seeing his first reactions from the last video…

"I'm actually curious to see where this is heading…" Marik said. "I hope these videos go all the way to the Battle City finals."

-Doctor: A hug? Sure, I don't see why no-OH MY GOD! IT BURNS! IT BURNS! – "Was that… a chainsaw I heard?" Tea asked.

"If that's the case, the entire blimp is gonna be massacred by the time the video is over," Bakura said.

Marik paused for a moment. "Huh, this one straight up kills people instead of sending them to the Shadow Realm… that's pretty dark."

-Yami Marik: Ah, now that was a good hug. Hello Odion, I got you an early birthday present. It's called being stabbed in the eye socket. I hope you don't already have one. – "Agh!" Tea said closing her eyes and shaking her head. "I didn't need that image in my head!"

Yugi was looking at the screen intently. "Guys, was the Millennium Rod really that sharp? I remember it had that little compartment at the bottom, but I don't remember it being that pointy."

"I just thought it sends people to the Shadow Realm, not actually kill them," Joey said. "Or maybe I'm remembering it differently…"

Odion turned away at seeing the Rod point close to his eye. Marik's eye widened! "What!? I was about to kill you!? What stopped me from doing that?"

-Gruber: Marik Ishtar, your presence is requested on ze main deck by order of ze fuhrer. Heil Kaiba.-

-Yami Marik: Oh no, I'm late for a children's card game. This somehow prevents me from simply lowering my arm and murdering you. Punctuality, my Achilles' Heel. – "So wait a minute," Duke noted, "He could have killed Odion, or sent him to the Shadow Realm, right then and there… and he's only stopped because he was needed for the finals…"

"It would've only taken him a second," Tristan added. "I guess punctuality is his weakness," he laughed. "Why couldn't we have gotten this one instead of the real evil Marik. We could've just said he was late for something and we could stop him right there!"

Marik was laughing at himself. "Well, I guess that answers my question."

-Gruber: Zis semi-final shall be Mai Valentine dueling Marik Ishtar, ze real one zis time.-

-Joey: Hey Kaiba, since Marik entered the tournament under a fake name, shouldn't he be disqualified?-

-Kaiba: The only person who should be disqualified around here is whoever made Tristan black in this shot.-

-Tristan: Do you be hatin' on my black face playah. – "Whoa! What!?" everyone yelled as they looked at the screen and saw the change in Tristan's skin color.

"…That has to be an edit to the video! There's no other way!" Tristan said. "How is that even possible!?" Tristan held his head trying to make sense of it all. "No, I can't think of any other way that could happen!"

"That's so weird," Serenity said. "And it was only in this one shot."

Tristan finally sighed. "I don't want to think about this anymore, my head hurts." Bakura gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder.

-Yami Marik: What's up whore biscuit? – Mai started growling. "What did you just call me mister? You're lucky you're not around anymore!"

-Mai: Marik. When I defeat him, it'll prove that I don't need friends to be a strong person. That'll show Joey for not including me in his brain-damaged induced hallucinations.-

-[irrational reasoning, ftw!] – "Well ah, when you put it that way…" Joey started saying, but quickly stopped when he remembered Mai was right there.

-Mai: Let's duel!-

-Yami Marik: You have guts. I like that in a victim! – "Egh," Marik said, turning away a little.

-Tea: Yugi, what's that thing?-

-Yami: It's the same card Marik used in his duel against me! Mai listen, there's something you must know!-

-Mai: Don't even think about trying to help me Yugi. I'm winning this card game by myself.-

-Yami: No, I was just going to say that we can all totally see your nipples through that top. It's really quite astounding. I mean, they're right there! – Mai covered her chest area as Yugi started blushing madly. "Do you want to continue that statement?" Mai asked.

In a quick flash, Yami was now in control. "Good luck Pharaoh," Yugi said as he faded back into the puzzle.

"So Yugi?" Mai asked again.

Now Yami was blushing. "Uhh, you can just ignore anything I said," he tried to explain. Not knowing if that was enough, Yami quickly turned back to the video, not noticing Mai's little giggle as the video continued.

-Mai: Um… thanks… I guess. – "Okay, how about we stop making things even more awkward than they need to be," Tea said.

-Yami Marik: Now I'm going to use my Millennium Rod, which I keep clenched between my buttocks to send this dual to the Shadow Realm. – "Uhhh, if that's were you keep the Rod, then I'm not touching that!" Joey said.

"I'm pretty sure he kept the rod in a pocket and not in there… I hope," Yami said. Thousands of miles away, Marik was thinking the same thing.

-Yami: Melvin no!-

-Yami Marik: Melvin yes!-

-Tristan: Damn sucka, this Shadow Realm be all up in my grill. That Melvin is wiggedy whack y'all.-

-Joey: Tristan, you're not black anymore.-

-Tristan: Shiii… - "I'm still not over that!" Tristan proclaimed.

-Yami: Melvin has turned this into a Shadow Game. Now the very fate of Mai's cleavage hangs in the balance. – "And my entire self as well, let's not forget," Mai said a little irritated.

-Yami Marik: Now watch as I use the power of the shadows to erase your memories!-

Mai: No way! How am I supposed to distract my opponents without these magnificent breasts?-

-Yami Marik: Memories, not mammaries! Honestly whore biscuit, the world doesn't just revolve around your boobs! – "With these videos, you'd think otherwise," Tea said.

"Well, at the very least, now we know what you really use those for in a duel… and I'm going to stop talking now," Tristan said as he saw the killing glare coming from Mai.

-Yami Marik: Every time one of your monsters is destroyed, a new memory will be erased from your mind. So say ta-ta to your beloved Joey. – "Ugh, that still haunts me to this day," Mai said.

"I was heartbroken when you couldn't remember me…" Joey trailed off. "It made me so happy when you finally remembered me." A single tear fell out of his eye.

Mai looked over at Joey and smiled. "I felt so much relief when that happened too, even though I was about to be attacked by Ra, knowing you were there with me, and wouldn't leave even after I told you too…"

The two of them looked at each other for a moment before being interrupted by Tristan. "Alright, you two lovebirds can have your moment another time, how about we get back to the video." Joey and Mai laughed a little before the video continued.

-Yami: Melvin has blocked Joey from Mai's brain. It's just like what he did to Team Four Star.-

-Tristan: Who? – "I guess it worked on us too, because I still don't know who they are," Tea said.

Mai: Two can play at that game. Unfriendly Amazon, destroy his Makyura the Destroyer! Now one of your memories will be erased!-

-Yami Marik: I hate to burst your bubble, but there's nobody in my head worth remembering. AHAHAHA- Wait, no! Mr. Tweetums! I can't forget about him! – "Oh no! not Mr. Tweetums!" Tea exclaimed.

"Am I missing something, or did Marik have a bird friend that he never talked about?" Bakura asked.

"In one of the previous videos, the one where Yugi duels for Slifer, the mime guy had a bird land on him, and Marik because friends with him." Tea explained.

"Aww, so Marik does have a soft spot in his heart," Serenity said.

Marik was blushing a little, while Ishizu chuckled softly. "I didn't know you had a thing for little birds. That's cute," she said.

"Well… birds are cute," Marik tried to defend himself.

"Ohhhhh, that makes sense!" Obelisk suddenly exclaimed.

"What?"

"Why Marik and you were connected. He has a thing for birds, and you're a giant fire bird," Obelisk explained with a laugh. Slifer chuckled a little, while Ra failed to find the humor in his joke.

-Mai: Looks like your little birdie flew away Marik.-

-Yami Marik: You made me forget the best friend I ever had. Just for that, I'm going to strangle you with your own bosoms. – "I don't think that's physically possible. This Marik may be evil, but he isn't that smart, is he?" Duke said.

-Mai: Guess again! I use Amazon Chain Master's special effect to take one card from your deck, and the card I choose is… Mega Ultra Chicken! – And it's at this point that many things start to happen. First off, Joey paused the video again. "Guys, look at that!"

Everyone looked, but weren't sure what they were trying to find… before Bakura spoke up. "Wait a second, the card looks different!"

"Oh wow, you're right. The picture should take up the entire card, with just the bottom being colored, but this card has the border all around it," Tea said.

"Also look at the top. 'The Sun of God Dragon.' Shouldn't it say 'The Winged Dragon of Ra'… Or I guess Mega Ultra Chicken?" Duke asked.

Yami studied the card more closely. "That is strange." He pulled out his deck and looked at the top card, which was Dark Magician. "There's no mistaking it, that card is different."

Joey placed his hand to his head. "Man, there's all sorts of weird things happening in this one. Just thinking about it makes my head hurt."

While the group was thinking about the card differences, Obelisk and Slifer were thinking of the quickest way to escape from wherever they were. For as soon as Mega Ultra Chicken was announced, the area around them got exceedingly hot! Flame erupted and Ra was now in his Phoenix form, enraged and burning everything around him.

"Yep, I was right, terrible idea…" Slifer said quietly.

Ra started speaking, slow and low. "Whoever made this video… I will find them and they will FEEL MY WRATH!" Flames started erupting everywhere. Obelisk and Slifer had a few close calls trying to dodge all of them. As the flames continued, Obelisk spoke up.

"Uh… I have a question…" Ra instantly turned towards him, still shooting flames everywhere. "…How exactly are you going to do that?"

"WHAT!?"

"I mean… were kind of stuck in wherever we are, and we can't escape unless our master summons us. So how would you even find who made this and have them suffer?"

Ra paused his flames, thinking about what Obelisk said. Slifer was watching from afar, not wanting to get caught up in all of this. Ra gritted his teeth (beak?) and slowly the flames died down, and he was back to his normal form. "I get where your coming from, but there's nothing we can do about it." Obelisk and Slifer returned to the screen. "Might as well forget about it and continue the video, lighten up, have a nice laugh."

Ra slowly walked over to them and sat down with the others. "Just get this video over with," he said slowly.

-Yami Marik: What!?-

-Kaiba: Summonitsummonitsummonitsummonitsummonitsummonit! – This got a laugh from Yugi's group.

-Mai: And now I'm going to summon it!-

-Kaiba: Finally, geez! – "He must really want Ra to be summoned," Tea said.

"Yeah well remember what happens when a God card is summoned… oh… I'm not going to continue that thought," Tristan said.

-Joey: Deyamn!-

-Tea and Serenity: Deyamn!-

-Tristan and Duke: Deyamn!-

-Mokuba and Kaiba: Deyamn!-

-Yami: Deyamn!-

Joey chuckled. "Deyang." He then paused. "What was that?"

"What do you mean?" Serenity asked.

"Well, I was trying to say the same thing they were all saying, but it didn't come out right. See listen…" He replayed Yami's 'deyamn' only to say 'deyang' right after. "See? I didn't mean to say that! I literally can't say what they were saying!"

"Joey, don't take this the wrong way, but maybe something's up with your head today. First your seeing people that aren't there, and now you're claiming you can't say the right words. Maybe you should take a break," Mai said.

"Maybe they're right, but I swear I'm not going crazy. Something weird is happening around here," He thought.

-Tea: Yugi, what's that thing?-

-Yami: A naked Welshman riding a unicycle, how the bloody hell should I know!? – Yugi's group burst out laughing, even Yami was chuckling along.

Mokuba was also laughing, and even the Ishtar siblings were laughing as well. Everyone was laughing… except for one.

Ra was once again spitting flames everywhere. "WHAT did that just say about me!?" he asked angrily. Slifer and Obelisk once again kept their distance.

"You know what, you were right. This wasn't the best idea, I admit it!" Obelisk said quietly.

"It's a little too late for that now. Just keep quiet until he calms down," Slifer responded.

-Yami Marik: Wahahaha! You didn't think it was going to be that easy did you?-

-Mai: You know for a second there, yeah, I kind of did.-

-Yami Marik: Silly whore biscuit. The only way to command Mega Ultra Chicken is by reading aloud the mystic chant inscribed upon the card. I assume you know how to Ancient Egyptian?-

-Mai: I knew I shouldn't have skipped that class. – "If everyone took that class, then just about anyone can summon the Winged Dragon of Ra," Bakura said. "Though I suppose the monster itself wouldn't like that."

And wouldn't you know it, Bakura was right. Ra was a little calmer now, but still agitated. "She is not worthy of my power," Ra said in reference to Mai.

"Then how about our power instead?" Obelisk asked. "…Never mind, Kaiba's the real deal when it comes to my power!"

-Kaiba: Mokuba, tell our satellites to get a picture of that text!-

-Mokuba: To the Mokuba-mobile!-

-Kaiba: There isn't a Mokuba-mobile. – Mokuba's face perked up at hearing about a 'Mokuba-mobile.' He turned towards Kaiba. "Hey Seto, when I get older, can I have my own car? I want it to be called the Mokuba-mobile!"

Kaiba smirked a little. "I don't see why not. Leave the car choosing to me, that way you won't end up with a cheap piece of junk."

Mokuba smiled. "Thanks Seto!"

-Tea: Yugi, what's that thing?-

-Yami: Tea, that's Kaiba. – The boys of the group, minus Yami, started laughing. "How could you not recognize Kaiba? You aren't that stupid!" Tristan said. When he opened his eyes after laughing, he was both Tea and Mai giving him glares.

"You wanna say that again buster!" Tea said angrily.

"Nope, I'm good," Tristan said quickly. "You're not stupid at all!"

-Yami Marik: Arise Chicken, Arise! – "Wait, is that the chant in these videos?" Joey asked. "If that's true, then yeah, anyone can summon the Winged Dragon of Ra."

Yami chuckled. "I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way."

Marik smirked. "It's not that easy to summon the Winged Dragon of Ra, and only a few people can as well."

Obelisk also was chuckling. "See, it's that easy to summon you!"

Ra glared at him. "That's not how things work around here and you know it! And my chant isn't something so simple and stupid as that!"

-Yami Marik: Now it's my turn. Prepare to taste defeat Mai Valentine as I attack you directly with the awesome power of MY God card! –

-Joey: Must, risk, life, for breasts! – "And all of you!" Joey quickly added. "I wouldn't risk my life for just one part of you!"

Mai smiled. "Thanks Joey."

-Joey: Can you hear me Mai? It's me Joey, Joey Wheeler.-

-Mai: That voice, that annoying Brooklyn accent. So familiar. – "Hey, what do you mean 'annoying'? I'd like to call it 'recognizable.' I mean, where else are ya gonna hear a Brooklyn accent among us?" Joey asked.

"If I lived with you, I'd probably have that accent too," Serenity said.

-Joey: Mai, there's something you should know. About that dream I had. I… didn't mean what I said. I lied to you Mai.-

-Mai: Joey, you mean…-

-Joey: Yes. I really did have dream sex with Kaiba. – "Whoa!" Joey's face became red again and everyone around him was laughing. "Well, well. Looks like the cat's out of the bag!" Duke said.

"Don't make me beat you up again!" Joey yelled.

"Again, you didn't even get to me the first time!" Duke teased.

"Alright alright! Enough you two!" Tea said. "We don't need a repeat of last time!"

-Mai: …Not really what I was hoping to hear at this point. – "You can say that again," Mai added.

-Yami Marik: You guys make a cute couple, of dead people. Mega Ultra Chicken, destroy their budding romance subplot!-

-Mai: Quick Joey, hide yourself in my cleavage! It's your only chance!-

-Joey: I thought you'd never ask. – "Wow, this video has everything with you two, doesn't it?" Duke asked. "Maybe you two should've watched this video on your own."

"I'd rather have all of you here in order to make things less awkward between me and Mai," Joey replied.

"Same," Mai commented.

-Yami: Joey, what did I tell you about being careful? – "Oh no, the last time I took your advice I ended up getting struck by lightning. Not happening this time," Joey said. Yami glanced away a little in embarrassment.

-Yami: Whooahhhwhoawhoa! I definitely should have seen this coming! – "Man, I still can't believe you really did that," Joey said.

"I had too. I would hate myself if I saw my friends get burned and didn't do anything about it," Yami replied.

"You're the best Yug," Joey said giving Yami a small side hug, to which Yami smiled back.

-Yami Marik: Ahaha! Yes! Burn Pharaoh! Burn!-

-Yami: Look I'm burning okay? I can't exactly burn any more than I'm doing right now.-

-Yami Marik: Burn!-

-Yami: I'm doing it geez!-

-Yami Marik: Burn! – "Geez! This guys not letting go! We get it already; you want him to burn!" Tea said.

"This is the first time I'm ever seeing this! I can hardly believe it!" Bakura noted.

Marik was also watching in awe. "Wow, the pharaoh is amazing, being able to take a hit like that. And all to protect his friends."

Ra was looking away, not wanting to see himself attack their master like that. "We do have an awesome master, don't we?" Slifer asked.

"Yeah, but Kaiba's pretty cool too," Obelisk chimed in.

-Yami: Ughaahaa! Again, right on my keys. – "That's… not a euphemism for something, is it?" Duke asked.

-Joey: Melvin you son of a bitch! You stay away from Mai or I'll… - "OOOOOHHHHH!" everyone yelled as Marik turned the Millennium Rod into a lightsaber.

"So not only is there a dagger in the Rod, it's also a freaking lightsaber!?" Tristan asked. "That's actually really cool!"

"I think this should go in the history books! The origins of the lightsaber were from Ancient Egypt in the Millennium Rod!" Joey said.

Marik was also shocked that the Rod turned into a lightsaber. "Okay, that's actually cool."

Ishizu sighed. "I swear you can be such a nerd sometimes."

-Yami Marik: You really have no clue what you're f*cking with here, do you?-

-Joey: I… yeah, I'll just be getting out of the way now.-

-Yami Marik: Yeah, that's what I thought. – "Yeah, probably not a good idea to mess around with him, unless you want him to call Vader for help," Tristan said.

-Yami Marik: So whore biscuit, it looks like I won our little duel. And since it was a shadow game, that means your soul is mine to do with as I will. And you know what that means? We're going to the frigging beach mothaf*cka! – "Uhh, something doesn't seem right about that," Tea said.

"It's true…" Mai said trailing off.

"Wait, really?" Tea asked.

Mai nodded. "And we're probably going to see it if my hunch is right."

Everyone watched as the beach scene happened, and they saw Mai trapped in the hourglass. "Oh wow, that must've been hard on ya," Joey said.

"Yeah, I'd rather not remember any of this. You guys were having fun on the beach without me," she said sadly.

"Aright then, next time we have a beach day, you're coming with us!" Joey said.

Mai smiled. "Thanks again Joey."

-Mai: Marik you bastard! What have you done?-

-Yami Marik: I have doomed you to exist in your own worst nightmare. A world where everybody's breasts are bigger than yours. – "Oooh, that sounds pretty bad," Duke said.

"Ha, that's nothing!" Mai said.

-Mai: Even Tristan's?-

-Yami Marik: Especially Tristan's.-

-Tristan: My brizzests are off the hizzle fo shizzle

-Duke: Deyamn. – "AHHHH!" Tristan screamed as he quickly turned away and hugged his chest. "No thank you!"

"Aww, c'mon Tristan. You don't want to have some fun at the beach?" Tea teased.

"Not like that!" he yelled. He then turned to Duke. "And you liking them doesn't make it any better."

"Hey man, I didn't say anything!" Duke said.

-[apparently yugi's uniform is flame retardant] – "Hey, those uniforms have to be resistant to anything and everything," Joey said.

-Zigfried: And now… we make… party! – "Ooooh. I wanna go to that party!" Joey said.

"I think that might be an adult party… looks like you're gonna have to wait," Tea said.

-Tristan: It won't be long, 'till I'm gonna need, somebody to lean on. Hooray, he's all better now.-

-Tea: Suck on that medical science! – "And there you go, friendship and singing saved the day!" Tea said.

"Wow, that video was something," Bakura said. "Hard to believe all the happened while I was out."

"What duel is next?" Serenity asked.

"Let's see… Oh! Kaiba and Ishizu!" Joey realized. "Oh boy, that one's gonna be good!"


Marik also realized this. "Sister, I think your duel is next."

Ishizu nodded. "Which means this is the duel where Kaiba was able to change destiny… I wonder how this will go…"


Obelisk stood up and stretched his arms out. "So, what did you think?" he asked Ra.

Slifer quickly interjected. "Considering how many times he almost killed us, I think we all know the answer to your question."

Ra looked at both of them and sighed. "I watched one of your little videos, now you need to keep your promise and be more serious when it comes to our training! Got it!" Obelisk and Slifer gulped and nodded. "Good!" And with that, Ra flew away to who knows where.

"Good luck trying to get him to watch another video," Slifer said as he flew off as well.

Obelisk looked on into nothing. "It'll happen again, just you wait."


Finally, Mokuba had finished the video, and turned to look at Kaiba. "Seto seems stressed out, something must be happening with his work." He then got an idea. "Maybe I can actually convince him to watch a video with me. Not just overhear things, but actually sit down and watch it with me." He looked at the thumbnail for the next video. 'Hmm, maybe I can with this next video."


I'll be honest, I had a blast writing the Egyptian Gods this way. I might do a little short series showing the God cards in everyday life for them. I really want to write more of them, but it might not happen in this fic for a while, but who knows.

Anyways, onto the reviews!

The 37th Butcher: I want to watch Death Note. Everyone says it's really good, but I only know the concept, characters and memes (I'll take a potato chip, and eat it!)

Evilkitten3: IT IS! YOU WILL NEVER TAKE THIS FANFIC 4KIDS!

SilverJoJo: Marik is pretty funny, but Abridged!Marik is my favorite character form the series.

Leengard: I decided to have deadlines so I can hopefully be a little faster on updates because I know a lot people read these fanfics, but I appreciate that you will wait if something happens... I wish other people were more thoughtful.

raydark182: Actually, Mai will be watching a few videos in the virtual world arc. How many, I'm not sure as of now.

thedarkpokemaster: Exactly, and since Yami Marik is completely gone in canon, I feel like there's more leeway for the characters to make fun of him.

Chronosign: Hope you enjoy this chapter!

Rinfantasy: Thank you!

Naughty Tome: Thank you! Hope you enjoy this chapter!

The Richmaster: Thank you, tbh, I was a little unsure of how to characterize them, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Beardonator: YES! The next few episodes coming up are some of my favorites.

MrKeyFox: Yeah, looks like they're starting to become more aware... we'll have to see what happens.

Spiritstrike: Welcome to my fanfic, and I'm so glad you're enjoying this! Hope you enjoy whatever comes your way next!

Guest #1: I think he knows already, the poll states he's not an asshole and he's got... connections to figure that out.

Guest #2: Oh yeah, Dark Magician girl will be showing up soon!

Jose: Even the funniest of stories have to have a little sadness in there. I do know about yugioh gx abridged! Shadyvox is awesome!

SuperNova23: If only, but then he wouldn't be the Joey Wheeler we know and love anymore.

Scaehime: Hi everyone in this review! I'm glad you all enjoyed this chapter!

YugixYami4ever: I can't wait for the puzzleshipping episode! My OTP is calling me! I already have an idea of how Yugi and Yami will react when that happens!

ramasioti100: Thank you, I always love hearing people say they watched the abridged series since the very beginning.

And that's all this time around. Apologies if I missed any. Next chapter will be uploaded December 20th. See you guys next time!

Next time: Episode 44 - Ishizu Explains it All. Duel Standby!
