What Luck By: Inu Jounouchi / Neko Ryou fan A/N: This takes place before Yugi, Joey, Mai, and Bandit Keith were the finalists. Instead of Yugi going up against Kaiba, Joey did. Now Joey lost to Kaiba, Mai gave Joey 5 extra Star Chips she had, and Yugi, Joey, Tristan, Mai and Téa are going up the Pegasus's castle together. Mai lost against Joey and whatever happened to her? Her soul was stolen and now Joey has to save her, or she will be gone forever!

-Chapter 4- (One Last Chance [Part 2])

It was the next day in Pegasus's little tournament, which turned out to be a big problem when Pegasus stole Mai's soul. Now, Joey is trying to win it back, along with the prize money for his little sister. He also said if he wins he'll wish Grandpa's and the Kaiba brother's souls back.

"Round 3, Joey Wheeler vs. Yugi Mouto will now begin!" Krokay announced. At that exact moment, Yugi used the power of his Millennium Puzzle to turn into Yami Yugi.

"Ok, I'll start off with Flame Swordsman in attack mode with the magic card Salamandra, so now I have 2500 attack points!" Joey said, making his first move.

"And I start off with the Mist Magic card along with the Summoned Skull. Summoned Skull, lightning strike!" Yami commanded his monster. There was a big flash of lightning from the field, and Joey's Flame Swordsman was destroyed.

"Oh man, fine then, I choose Red Eyes Black Dragon, and equip it with Dragon Nails, so now I have 3000 attack points! Red Eyes Black Dragon, Inferno Fie Blast!" That attack took out Yami's monster, and his Life Points were lowered. (Yami- 1700; Joey- 1800)

"Now I summon the Winged Dragon in defense mode!" Yami said, laying his card in defense mode.

"Is that the best you can do? I use Grave Robber to steal one of you Graveyard monsters! And I picked Summon Skull!" Joey told his friend, taking one of his most powerful cards.

"I saw that coming. But you can't fuse them without the polymerization card. So now I summon Curse of Dragon and Gaia the Fierce Knight! And I will use the polymerization card to fuse them into Gaia, The Dragon Champion!" Yugi said, summoning one of his most powerful monsters.

"Nice try Yugi, but I have Copy Cat, and I'll copy your fusion card!" Joey said, putting down Copy Cat, and fusing his Dragon with Yugi's Summoned Skull. "Now you face. the supreme Black Skull Dragon! Black Skull Dragon, Molting Fireball Attack!" That one attack brought Yami's Dragon Champ down and his Life Points went to 0.

"I can't believe I lost, and the only chance I had at winning back Grandpa." Yugi [not Yami anymore] cried.

"Don't you worry Yugi, I'll save your." Then there was a light coming from Pegasus's Millennium Eye again, but Yugi's Puzzle block him from entering the Shadow Realm. 'Thanks spirit!' Yugi thought.

"What happened little Yugi Boy? My Eye isn't working!" Pegasus moaned.

"My spirit protected me! You can't stop us!" Yugi shouted to Pegasus.

"Your spirit is nothing compared to my power, but oh well, now I'm against Joey!" Pegasus said with a giggle.

Shaggie: More suspense! I wonder if Joey can pull it off and save Mai. And if he saves he, can he tell her his feelings for her? This is getting suspenseful! Find out in. -Chapter 5- (Keep it Up Joey! [Part 3])
