Chapter 5

Present, Yami's POV

I watched as my opponent tried to think of away to defeat my Dark Magician and my Celtic Guardian.

"I play Thunder Dragon." My opponent declared as he slammed a card on to his Duel Disk. "And play Spellbinding Circle. That ends my turn.

I sighed as I drew a card from my own deck and attacked with my Dark Magician, wiping out his remaining life points.

"Wha? How could that be?" he cried. "My spellbinding circle should have stopped your attack."

"The Spellbinding circle prevents only one monster from attacking. Since you never said which monster you set the spellbinding circle for, it automatically attached itself to the weakest monster on my side of the field, that being my Celtic Guardian. That left my Dark Magician free to attack."

"You mean it only works on one card??" He turned to someone in the audience. "You said Spellbinding circle works on all my opponent's monster. It's not fair."

"It doesn't matter if it's fair or not," Seto Kaiba walked up to us. "Yugi won. You know the rules. Now give him the locator cards and your rarest card."

Grumbling, my opponent handed me his two locator cards and his rarest Duel Monsters card and walked away.

I put the locator cards away and glanced at the remaining card. I was shocked to see that it was the trap card Solemn Wishes. It increases the card's owner's life points by 500pts each time they draw.

I turned to Tristan, who had watched me duel. "Let's go. We need to meet up with Joey and Tea."

"Right." Tristan nodded.

"Hold it!" Kaiba called out. I had forgotten he was there. "What about our duel? I've let you off too many times. We duel now."

"Kaiba, I haven't the" I began. He really reminded me of a spoiled kid.

"No excuses, Yugi Mouto. I've been patient long enough."

I sighed, knowing it would be useless to argue against him. "Tristan, do you think you could meet up with Tea and Joey without me."

"Sure, I'll find them, and bring them back to watch the duel." He said then left at a run.

"Let's get this over with Kaiba." I said, shuffling my deck.

I handed him my deck and he handed me his. As I shuffled his deck I prayed to Ra that his Egyptian God Card would be at the bottom when I handed it back to him.

"Let's duel!" We said together after we had exchanged decks again, so that we each possessed our own decks.

"I'll let you go first." Kaiba called

"Fine, then." I said placing two cards face down.
