Ch.2 in the series
Here we go, the start of no. 2!
2 years after the previous duel
Seto Kaiba walked out of his front door, heading to the mailbox. When he reached the small tin holder, he found a small brown box lying on the floor next to it. "Hm, how strange." He said, reaching down and picking it off the ground. On top of the box, in fairly large sized print on a piece of paper, read: To Seto and Mokuba Kaiba, of Kaiba Co.
Yugi and Joey both sat on the couch in Yugi's Grandfather's living room, Yugi's house as well, and read the writing on the almost completely familiar box from not one year ago, when the worst time in the lives of Joey and Yugi ever happened, when they were involuntarily sent to Duelist Kingdom, to save the ones they truly loved.
Mai Valentine sat on her comfortable chair in her room, holding the box in her lap, not knowing whether to open it or throw it in the fireplace like she should have one year ago, when she was invited to Duelist Kingdom. Slowly, her fingernails cut through the tape on the top of the box, and began to take out the contest.
All over the world, others did the same. Weevil Underwood, Rex Raptor, Ash Ketchum, Misty Waterflower, Gary Oak, Takato, Tai, Kari, and all the other digidestined. All received these strange boxes, and they all opened them to accept their new challenges. Dear whoever has received this letter: Congratulations, you have been cordially invited to the true duel of a lifetime! If you wish to enter the duel, you must take the following tickets to your nearest seaport or airport for a direct flight to my island. For those whom seek power, fame, or to find the answers to their deepest, most asked questions, for a cure to what may ail you, come. I swear, this will be the most exhilarating competition many of you have ever endured! Sincerely, your Host, XXX
Everyone read the letter, and all of them suddenly felt the need to join. This mysterious man seemed to not be threatening them or forcing them, no, he was actually asking them. It seemed like a regular thing to some. but to others was all too familiar. Everybody saw what happened at Duelist Kingdom, some of them thought that this would be another horrible nightmare like that. Only Kaiba read on, only Seto Kaiba had the mind to search the letter over, to find fine print or a p.s. And he found one. P.S. Seto Kaiba, I thank you for the free technology when we dueled. But I a sure you, this will not be a life threatening battle like at Duelist Kingdom. No, far from it, actually. Do you remember your little game, the one you created for the Duel Monster cards? This will be somewhat like that. Please join us, you will not be disappointed. Once again, Bo
'Hmm.' He thought to himself. 'So, this XXX person is Bo, the same person that I myself have dueled. To go at it again, now that is a gift worthy of kings. But to win, that is a gift from God himself. "Seto, can we go? Please?" Mokuba asked, ready to plead all night if need be. "Yes." Seto said almost before Mokuba finished.
"Well guys, lets get to packing!" Ash said happily, as he started putting his things up. "Pika!" Pikachu confirmed. "Geez, Ash is really hyped about this!" Brock stated, as he too packed up. "Well, so am I." She said, finishing her packing by rolling up her sleeping bag.
"Well gang, how about it? Should we go?" Yugi asked, and quickly received an answer when Joey, Tristen, and Tea all started grabbing what they felt they would need. For Yugi and Joey, their decks and various clothing, and Yugi's Millennium Puzzle. For Tea and Tristen, clothing and food was about it.
The Digidestined of past and present all met up at the old park in the middle of town. "Well everyone, it seems that we've been invited to a competition. Who's in?" Tai asked. He got an answer when everyone raised his or her hands. "It's unanimous, Tai. We're heading out tonight." Ken stated, shifting the backpack he was wearing on his shoulders. "Well, let's go."
Three days later
Everyone was sitting in various positions on a boat. They had all been dropped off on a different side in various locations, and were all picked up into the same place, a large cruiser ship. On it, various duel stations were placed in every which place, and were gaining very little use. The only special attraction was Weevil Underwood vs. Joey Wheeler, and it wasn't really much of a match at that. Weevil's cunning skill and strategy far outmatched that of Joey, though Weevil was quite angry he could find no way to cheat. Currently, a powered up Red Eyes was demolishing was seemed to be Weevil's Great Moth, and both were destroyed using one of Weevil's special traps. And so the duel went, ending in a tie of some sort. Of course, Joey felt it necessary to continue a different type of duel off the stations, including his fists and Weevil's stomach/face. Of course, Weevil had quite a few friends, and Joey does as well, so it wasn't long before a riot of massive proportions broke out. Even little Yugi was throwing his fists in every which direction, knocking heads and shins together. Suddenly, a rip of energy and restriction flew through the air. Everyone froze and looked up at the top of the boat where a new figure stood, a stack of cards in his hands. "Now everyone, who started this little mess, because honestly, I am shocked at the whole lot of you. Yugi, throwing punches for no reason, Joey, fighting because of a tie game, and Kaiba. I don't see why you Kaiba brothers would be fighting, but I am angry. Frankly, I should throw the whole lot of you off this boat and see how long you live, before I finally pull you back in while you cough and choke on the grimy water of the sea. But I feel strangely nice, so I wont. Now, all of you apologize and go on with what you do in your free time." The figure said before disappearing into thin air. The energy bind placed on everyone was lifted, and each person apologized to whomever seemed closest to them. Yugi found another child, maybe two feet taller than him but three years his junior, in a blue jacket and strange hat on his head and what Yugi recognized as a pokemon on his head. "Hey, uh, sorry for smacking you. multiple times. in the eye." the kid said, scratching his head nervously. "My name's Ash Ketchum, and this here's Pikachu." He continued, scratching the neck of the little yellow rodent on his right shoulder. "Yeah, no problem. My name's Yugi Mouto, my friends call me Yugi, so you might as well too, Ash." He said, smiling lightly as he rubbed his eye sorely. "Yeah, you want me to get you a steak or something?" Ash asked, as he was about to make a mad dash for the cafeteria. "If you don't mind." Was all Yugi said. Tristen and Brock were both rubbing their stomachs and chins, cringing as they felt the soreness in their knuckles. "Guy, I hate to admit it, but you got a chest of steel and a fist of rock." Tristen said, looking at his knuckles, which were red enough to start bleeding. "I could say the same for you, Tristen." Brock said, not noticing the look Tristen shot him. "How did you know my name?" he asked, popping the bones in his neck because they were sore. "You dropped your wallet, and I needed to see who's it was." Brock said, tossing the leather block at him. "Hmm. You look like you could use some ice for them knuckles." Tristen stated, tossing Brock some ice from a near by ice chest. "Thanks." Brock said, wondering how their gracious host had stopped everyone in their tracks by just holding up a card. Mokuba and Seto Kaiba were both staring down Ken Ichijouji and Davis, who were bleeding from several different places. With great hatred, Seto stuck out his hand to Ken, whom thankfully took it and pulled himself up. Davis, being as stubborn as he is, jumped up on his own, shoved his hands in his pockets, and walked off. "We're sorry sir, we didn't mean to start any trouble. My friend and I got carried away." Ken said, bowing his head slightly. "No problem, but I would tell my friend to calm himself if I were you. He's going to have a heart attack if he keeps on the way he has so far. My name's Seto Kaiba, this is my brother Mokuba Kaiba, and we are sorry for beating the bajeezus out of you and your friend." Seto said, as he and Mokuba turned and walked away.
And so partnerships and friendships were made, and the plot continues with little to no confusions, hopefully. Oh, and Alex Warlorn, I have decided who "I" am, and by now I should think some of you have as well. And so ends chapter 2.
