Well, this is my first story here on fanfiction. Well, I enjoy putting myself into little stories, so here it goes. My very first story entitled...
Into the World of Yu-Gi-Oh!
*One Month From Now*
Danny was sitting at home, bored with the simple game of Duel Monsters. The game wasn't as entertaining as he thought it would be, especially since he beat every kid in his school so far. His parents were coming home from their trip to Egypt. Danny decided not to go. He hated the heat and enjoyed the dark cold winters. Unfortunately for him, it was summer time. His parents were gone for the whole summer and there was only one month left. He spent his summer going to the mall, watching movies, and collecting more and more powerful cards.
*DING-DONG* the doorbell rang.
Danny jumped up and ran to the door. He answered it, finding, not his parents, but a strange man in a turban.
"I am looking for a.... Danny Lam," he said.
"That's me," he said, calmly.
"Ah, well, this is for you then," he said, handing him a box. Danny looked down at the wrapped box.
"What is it?" He said, looking up, but finding himself sitting back on the couch watching the Live Duel Monsters show that was on.
"What the---?" He said, staring blankly. Suddenly, he heard the phone ring. He quickly picked it up and heard the mail come in.
"Hello?" Danny said, walking towards the mail.
"Is this Mister Danny Lam?" Someone said.
"Yeah, who's this?"
"This is the police force in Egypt. There seems to have been.... an accident here."
"Oh no..." Danny knew what was coming, and dropped the phone. It seemed there was a terrible Sand Storm. Although it killed few, he knew his parents were dead.
"Hello? Sir? Is there anyone there?" the man asked.
"Y--ye--yes," Danny responding.
"Is there anyone you can stay with?"
"Yeah, I have family here," Danny lied. His parents had no brothers or sisters and both their parents were dead also.
"Well, I am sorry for your loss, but I have others to call," the man said, and then hanging up.
Danny fell to the ground. He sat there, for what seemed like days. After a few hours, his senses came back to him. He looked up and looked through the mail. What else could he do? He had to find something to distract him. He looked through the mail... all bills and junk. Then he noticed the packages on the floor. The one from before... and beside it.... another one. He opened up the new package first.
"What is this?" he said, talking to himself. Inside there was a glove and two star like objects and also, a map of some sort of islands. He lifted up the map for a closer look and found a videotape underneath. He played the videotape inside his VCR. There was Maximillion Pegasus, the creator of Duel Monsters.
"Good morning to you, Danny." he said.
"What does the creator of Duel Monsters want with me?" Danny wondered.
"You are probably wondering what I want with you..." he said.
"Weird."
"Well, we are holding a contest here on the Duelist Kingdom! As you can see, with the map you have found, there are arenas placed everywhere on the island. Although this may be a new experience for you, we here at the corporation have heard that you have been the top dueler in your school. With your parents permission, would you like to come to the Duelist Kingdom to fight your way into the castle for a grand prize of 1 million dollars or the chance to fight me and get whatever wish you desire. If so, the boat will leave Tonight at 10 o'clock. You must collect 10 star chips to win your way into the castle. Hope to see you there."
"Wow, a chance to win 1 Million dollars. Or even better, a chance to beat the maker of the Duel Monsters! Gotta pack," Danny thought, forgetting about the tragic moment. He quickly ran upstairs and walked to his room. He passed by his parent's room and walked inside. Their things were everywhere and his memories hurt him more and more. He shook it out of his head. No time for that. He had to somehow make a living to help support himself. He rummaged through his parents' things and found some money for food.
He ran back to his room and found his box of Duel Monster cards, his favorite card was on top, the Perfectly Ultimate Moth, the Great Moth's Final stage. He looked through his cards, making sure he wasn't missing something. His other favorite magic cards, Mirror Force, Sword of Deep Seated, Mirror Force, Just Desert, Acid Trap, Change of Heart, Mind Control, Monster Reborn, Copy Cat, Doppelganger, and Dian Keto the Cure Master and Ookazi.
"Where are they?" he said to himself, looking through the monster part of his deck. He finally found them near the end, Launcher Spider, Summoned Skull, Dark Magician, Seiyaryu, and the ever powerful Black Luster Solider and Dark Sage!
"Wait, I'm missing something," he thought, flipping through his deck again. He opened his box and looked through it and found the card he needed the most for his Perfectly Ultimate, the Forest card and Invigoration to power up his Moth.
He quickly threw it into his glass case and into his black box, which also held his Gameboy and extra batteries and a lighter. He found a briefcase and a luggage bag. He ran through his drawer and threw as much close that would fit. He opened up the briefcase and threw in emergency items like a first aid kit and a flash light. Danny threw on his favorite shirt, a short sleeved tight black shirt and a pair of jeans. He ran downstairs with his things and, while running to the kitchen for food, saw the small package that strange man had brought. He picked it up and opened it, finding a small bottle with a odd gold liquid. He pulled off the cork and a puff of smoke entered the air. He looked inside and took a small whiff to see if that could help recognized what it was. Suddenly, the gold liquid started to bubble and then it flew into the air, just missing Danny as he backed away. He let go of the bottle, which floated even though he let it go. The gold flew into the air and turned the ceiling to gold. Danny backed away until he found himself backed up into the corner. The Gold followed him and then went across the wall and covered Danny in the gold liquid. The gold slid off the ceiling and wall and surrounded Danny even further in gold. Everything went black. Danny found himself in a dark hallway.
"Where am I?" he asked himself.
"You are in the shadow realm, a man had said.
"What? Who are you?" Danny asked.
"I believe you and I have met before," he said, walking into the light.
Light? In a shadow realm? I know it's kinda ironic, but oh well.
"You, your the guy who brought me the package! What did you do to me?" he yelled, lifting him up with one hand. His eyes burned red and he felt his veins pop.
"I have given you a Millennium Item!" he yelled, his voice echoing in the empty room.
"Who or what is a Millennium Item?!" Danny yelled. "Wait... what's happening to me?"
Danny noticed that he was lifting him up with one hand, and dropped the man back onto the ground and stared at his hand.
"The Millennium Item has chosen you!" the man said.
"What is happening to me?" Danny said, his veins bulging. He looked closely at his arm. His veins were bright gold.
"I am Shadi, the keeper and guardian of the Millennium Items," he said, "and the thing that is happening to you is that the magical powers of the Millennium is flowing inside you and within your blood."
"My.... blood?" Danny said. Suddenly, the gold took shape in his arm, leaving his veins. It made a tattoo like picture on his arm of a dragon and on his other arm, it had a picture of an Egyptian Eye. Danny calmed down and ran his hands through his hair. He looked at his fingers. Gold electricity ran between the fingers and circled his hand.
"That would be the power of the Millennium Items. The powers of the elements," he said. Danny pointed across the room as a beam of flames shot out.
"Odd...." Danny said, a bit confused.
"You must go now," Shadi said. The shadow realm shattered like glass as Shadi disappeared. Danny found himself on the ground. He quickly stood up. He looked around the room, nothing seemed different. He ran to the bathroom.
"It was all a dream," he thought, splashing water onto his face. He wiped his face on the towel and quickly passed the mirror and out the door. Danny stopped in the doorway and backed up slowly. He looked into the mirror at his hair.
"..... Awesome!" Danny yelled, looking at his hair. It had been cut short and spiked and was turned blonde. He looked at his arm and the tattoos were still there. The Egyptian eye started to glow and then the electricity ran through his fingers again. He looked at it closely. The knowledge of how to use his new powers was now implanted into his brain.
"I wonder..." Danny thought. He made a large circle in the air and then a bunch of light particles surrounded his fingers as he did so. When he finished, the circle glowed brightly and a burst of light shot out. Danny reached into the circle and then pulled it back out. He opened his hand and a burst of light shot out. He reached his hand back in and when he pulled his hands back out, he was holding his luggage and then filled it with food.
"Cool!" Danny yelled with excitement. He reached his hands into the portal and pulled it wider and then stepped into it with his luggage. He found himself in the departure port for the Duelist Kingdom and on his way to a great adventure.
