Hours went by. Jess and Mink have been dueling for ages. They have
already gained each 10 star chips. They answered to everyone else saying
they were heading to the castle with a suprise for all of them telling them
to meet at the front of the gate.
"ok everyone!" Mink said as she saw them walk up the long stairs. "This tournament will be ending really fast soon!" Jess said.
"We just gotten all 10 star chips for us!" Mink said. "Yeah so?" Allen said. "Yeah and we've been dueling extra a lot!" Jess said. Jess nudged Ryou. Ryou dug into his pocket taking out a bandana with something inside. It was a whole bunch of star chips suited for each of them.
"no way!" Daniel said. "And we're giving them all to you! no charge!" Mink said. "Well.. I don't see why....." Enya said but suddenly someone broke out. "What are you guys doing!" the voice yelled out.
It was Espa Roba. "I've been looking for all of you! I heard you off of my radio say to meet here and I hope you have enough star chips for me!" Espa Roba said. "Sorry but this is a secret and we need to stick together...." Jess said.
"Yeah bu what about me! I have a Millennium Item! I can beat you all so easily!" Espa Roba said. "Why is that?" Minako said. "Because...". Espa Roba tore off his Jacket revealing a shiny metal on his shirt. "I am an Eliminator!"
"so you were hired by Mortikai.... you traitor..." Mink said. "No! you guys are traitors! I hear what you guys are trying to do! you want to stop Mortikai from saving the world!" Espa said hissing. "What?" Minako said. "No we're not...." Daniel said. "Yeah that why Mortikai hired me! to make sure you guys stay out!" Epsa said. "He hired me because he knew I wouldn't let him down! I was going to make sure he beat you guys! and I was right by his side!"
Espa Roba went on and on and everyone got bored. "I'm sure you like Mortikai but we got to stop HIM from sending the world into Chaos... think of this as helping you" Mink said. She put all the star chips in the dial and turned it opening the door. "Come back here!" Espa Roba said holding a fist.
"come on Daniel!" Allen said. "but... I want to.." but Allen interrupted. "You want to stay with little mr. come on lets bore the hell out of everyone?!" Allen said grabbing his arm and pulling him inside the castle. The door shut and they could hear little hummings of Espa Roba. "I'd hate to still be out of here...." Enya said.
"Well no that we're in the castle lets find Mortikai!" Mink said. Suddenly the lights grew dark and everyone could hear humms. "I can't see!!" Minako screamed. It was real dark and everyone scattered. "I found you!" Ryou said grabbing onto Jess.
Suddenly the lights grew dim. They saw a cloaked man near a torch. "a Rare Hunter!" Daniel said turning around. "Yes... and I have gained entrance to the castle. I had a feeling you people would pass by here" He said.
"My name is Oden and I plan to stop you! Mink!" Oden said lifting his head and revealing his face. "Talk about creepy" Enya said. "So you want to duel me?!" Mink said.
"No... I want to break all of you up!" He said. "Then I'll duel you!" Daniel said. "What? No I want to duel him!" Mink said pushing him back. "Oh come on give me a whack at these Rare Hunters! I can do it!" Daniel said. "I'll give you a real whack!" Mink said taking out her Millennium Rod. "Ahhh the Millennium Rod..." Oden said as his eyes grew in delight. "Not only will I take you're Millennium Item but I will also take your soul!" Oden said laughing.
Mink and Daniel were now shoving each other. "Hurry up I don't have all day!" Oden yelled. "Mink..." Ryou said putting his hand on his shoulder. "You already had a chance with a Rare Hunter why don't you let Daniel do this duel?"
"Oh fine" Mink said crossing her arms. "Very well... We will duel within the depths of the Shadow Realm!" Oden said. Suddenly they could see the Millennium Symbol right above Oden. "What is that?" jess said.
"Master! Bring us to the Shadow Realm!" Oden yelled as he raised his arms. Suddenly the room turned gloomy and dark. "Bring out the souls!" Oden yelled.
Suddenly everyone except Daniel fell to the ground, sleeping. Dark gray clouds formed in front of them. "What have you done?!" Daniel yelled. "I've only removed their precious souls. You will get them back... if you win" Oden said.
"Then I shouldn't be in this form" Daniel said. Suddenly his eyes grew from innocent to devious. "My Millennium Scale will guide me through along with my spirit" He said as he took out his Millennium Scale.
"What?! you too have a Millennium Item?!" Oden said taking a step back. "Cut the chat lets duel" Daniel said. "Very well..." Oden said.
"We will duel without tributes... and if I win I'll make master even happier by earning The Millennium Rod AND Your Scale" Oden said pointing at him. Daniel just gave a mean smirk. "You'll be surprised in what I have in store for you"
"First I'll summon Ryu-Ran(2200/2600) in attack mode!" Daniel said. A hole ripped through the air opening a gateway. The dragon busted out. "You'll notice that the monster seem pretty real... you'll be surprised when I attack you directly..." Oden said. "Hmph...." Daniel said. "I'll be sure that will not happen!"
"I place 3 cards face down and end my turn!" He said. Oden laughed. "It's a pity... All in my firs turn..." Oden said. "What?!" Daniel blurted out.
"I guess it'll be helpful" Oden said. "I summon Corp Liner(2400/2300) in attack mode!" Oden said. Daniel was confused but he knew he could easily beat that Corp Liner. Daniel drew his card with an idea. "I use this magic card Salamandra to raise Ryu-Ran's attack to 2900!" He said.
"Then 1 face down monster card" Daniel said. Daniel's turn ended and it went over to Oden. "This is just too easy..." Oden said. "Corp Liner! attack Ryu-Ran!" He yelled
Suddenly Corp Liner drew it's sword and sliced the dragon in half, destroying it. "what?! how?" Daniel stuttered. "Corp Liners special ability... When it attacks any Equip cards that are equipped to the opponent are negated while Corp Liner attacks" Oden said. "And something even better... Instead of doing battle calculation half of Ryu-Rans attack points are deducted from your life points. That's Corp Liner's other ability"
Daniel was shocked toward the strength of that monster. Daniels life points were instantly reduced to 1550. He didn't stand a chance against Corp Liner unless he attacked it.
The turn was Daniel's. He drew his card. "hmm... yes.. this should work" He said. "I summon Red Eyes Black Dragon(2400/2000) into attack mode!"
"Then this card Malevolent Nuzzler to raise it to to 3100!" Daniel said. "Red Eyes Black Dragon! attack Corp Liner!" He yelled. The Dragon blasted a blaze of fire at the Corp Liner destroying it. "And don't forget about Corp Liners third ability you lose the amount of attack points that Corp Liner had!"
The score stood to Daniel: 1550 and Oden: 600. Oden was shocked now. "This is the first someone had a chance of bringing me down... I assure you I will not lose" Oden threatened.
"Bring it on!" Daniel said. "I play Pot of Greed to draw 2 cards!" Oden said. "Yes this is perfect..."
"I use Monster Reborn to bring back Corp Liner!" Oden said. "Then from my hand I tribute 2 monsters and Corp Liner to summon the ultimate god there is!"
"you have a god card?!" Daniel said in shock. "Yeah. And it's my key to winning this duel and your Millennium Scale!" Oden said.
"I summon Pyramid God of Ancient Darkness!!(5600/4600)" Oden yelled. A dark fog crept in. Daniel couldn't see even his opponent now. The fog finally cleared out revealing a giant black Pyramid with an eye on it. "What the heck is that?!" Daniel said. "View the power of my Ultimate Monster!" Oden yelled.
"You haven't won yet!" Daniel said. "I will in the next turn... you see. Pyramid God of Ancient Darkness allows me to activate any Magic card in my deck... and even yours. I just have to know your deck to win!" Oden yelled.
"and Finally I activate Dian Keto Cure Master to raise my Life Points to 1600!" Oden yelled. "This guy is a freak... He has a god card but... wait... I have one too... I'll match him god to god!" Daniel said.
"Your the one in for the surprise now!" Daniel said. "Yeah I'm sure, Pyramid attack his Red Eyes Black Dragon!"
"Then I activate my magic card! Scapegoat!" Daniel said. Suddenly 4 goats appeared and the attack from Pyramid God destroyed one of them. "You have 3 goats left yet I can still win this duel!" Oden said.
"Your really confident... I'm not even sure if I should let my self win... but if I lose I know the consequences...." Daniel said.
"I play Pot of Greed!" Daniel said. Hoping for luck Daniel drew his 2 cards. He needed the right on to get the card he needed. "hmm a White Curtain.." Daniel said.
"Yes this could work!" He said. "I activate White Curtain!"
"what does that do?!" Oden said. "it lets me special summon a Witch of The Black Forest(1100/1200) to the field!" Daniel said. He placed it face down onto his field. "One more turn and I'll use the Witch's effect!" Daniel said.
"This won't help you defeat me!" Oden said. "Pyramid God! attack his Witch of The Black Forest!"
The Pyramid's eye opened and a black beam shot out destroying the witch. "You just made 1 big mistake!" Daniel said. "What?! how can I?!" Oden yelled.
"Witch of The Black Forest lets me take a card from my deck to my hand" Daniel said. "Too bad you never knew my deck because... I have a god card also!"
Oden stepped back in shock. The turn went over to Daniel. "I sacrifice all the cards in my graveyard out fo play to summon God of The Scale, Anubis!(4500/0000)"
Suddenly the Millennium Symbol came into view. The eye opened wider and a bright light shot down. Oden covered his eyes. "Fear the power of my ultimate monster!" Daniel yelled as the light shot out revealing The God of The Scale.
"You forget my power of my God!" Oden said. "I activate Pyramid God to activate Thousand Knives to destroy your God of Anubis!". Suddenly knives flooded the room all facing the Anubis. "I activate Magic Drain!"
"How can you, you have no cards but Anubis on the field!" Oden stammered. "I'ts God of Anubis' special effect, Just like your Pyramid I can activate any trap cards from my deck!" Daniel replied. Oden looked through his deck and yelled. "what no magic cards?" Daniel said casually.
Oden growled. The effect of Thousand Knives was negated. "Just remember. I can still destroy your God of Anubis, My Pyramid has a higher attack than you!"
Daniel suddenly paused. "That's right, oh man.. I'm going to lose, unless...." He thought. Daniel had to just think straight. Daniel drew his card in hope.
"hmmm... the card I won from heather... maybe this can work..." Daniel thought. "I summon Jinzo #4 (2400/400) in attack mode!"
"Jinzo #4 stops all monsters 2000 attack points and up from attacking on the opponents side so your Pyramid God cannot attack!" Daniel said. Oden yelled. Oden drew his card and skipped his turn accepting defeat but in a mean way. "I assure you sir Malik will destroy you all!"
"Malik?" Daniel said to himself but he snapped out his thoughts. "I activate God of Anubis' effect. I sacrifice all the card in my hand to raise Anubis' attack from 4500 to 6000"
"Jinzo #4 and God of The Scale, Anubis! attack his life points, directly!" Daniel yelled. Both the monsters attacked Oden. Oden fell to his feet, hurt by the attacks. "No release my friends" Daniel said.
Suddenly the Millennium Symbol appeared over Oden's head and the eye closed. The darkness fell. Daniel returned to his human form and everybody woke up from the ground.
"hey guys!" Daniel said running over to them. "What happened?" Mink said as she got up. "You guys got your souls trapped but I won the duel with my God Card" Daniel replied.
"That's cool" Ryou said as he got up also helping Jess get up. "Hey look over there!" Allen said. There were 2 cards and a badge on he ground. "So that Rare Hunter was a Eliminator...." Minako said.
Daniel picked up the Pyramid God of Ancient Darkness, his new Raikejin card, and the Eliminator badge. "Well what now?" Daniel said. "We go" Mink sad pointing down the hall where the big doors were, where Mortikai lurked.
"You fool" Malik said. "I'm sorry but I couldn't defend my self!" Oden said. "I don't want to hear your excuses, to oblivion with you" Malik said. Suddenly a hole opened and Oden got sucked in, trapped forever. "Malik I know you are there..." A voice said into the screen.
"Who are you" Malik said turning over to the giant screen. "I am sire Mortikai I think you will be interested in this" Mortikai said holding up the Millennium Scroll.
"Ahh so you possess a millennium item" Malik said pleased. "That's right, I'll be happy to give it to you unless you come on my side..." Mortikai said. Malik nodded and Mortikai started telling his plan.
Daniel and Allen pushed open the big doors revealing a large dining hall. At the end of the table was a man in a suit. "Yes you must be the.. 1... 2.. 3.. hey there's only 6 of you!" The man said.
"Yeah, our 6th person disappeared." Mink said. The man started talking into his radio with a worried face. "Don't worry I have a plan" the voice said back.
"Anyway my name is Graden I hope you have had a fun time here, stick around and have some lunch." They all sat down at the table. There were 6 extra seats though.
"Bring in the copy cats" Graden said into the radio. Suddenly a curtain opened revealing the 2nd group. "Please meet are very special guest, Mitaru, Seymour, Galadriel, Lance, Ian, and Hikari" Graden said.
The group walked down the stairs each giving an glare at their counter parts. Seymour gave a mean smirk at Daniel. "I hope you will enjoy your stay" Graden said leaving the giant dinning room.
The copy cats started whispering to each other. "We have to beat these little creeps?! seems too easy" Lance whispered to Seymour. Seymour chuckled.
"These guys look freaky" Allen whispered to Mink. "I heard that!" Hikari jumped up from her chair. "don't have a tantrum" Ian said casually. Hikari sat down with a grumble. "So... why did you guys come here for" Lance said. "Well umm..." Enya said. "Oh keeping it secret, same here" Galadriel said interrupting Enya.
Suddenly Graden came back in. "I hope I was interrupting anything but our host, Mortikai would like a few words with you." Graden said and going back into the double doors. Suddenly a big screen lowered from the ceiling. It was a 2 sided screen. Mortikai came up on the first screen. "Welcome duelist. I hope you've been having fun in my tournament. But I've been meaning to test out 1 last invention" Mortikai went on.
Suddenly the back of the screen turned on. "who is that?" Jess said. "Oh no..." Ryou said. "who is it???" Allen said. "It's Malik.." Ryou said.
"That's Malik???" Mink said. "Yes I am Malik, Mink I know you know I've been sending out my un-loyal rare hunters after you're Millennium Rod but I thought other wise but now I decided to join with Mr. Montiearo and help get all of your Millennium Items"
"What is he talking about?!" Mitaru said. "So we've decided to add my machinery with ancient magic of the Millennium Scroll!" Mortikai said. Suddenly the the bars came around the group tying them down on the chair. "What is this?!" Lance yelled. "oh it's nothing just so that you don't escape."
Suddenly a large dome flew over them. Dark lightning strikes came down. "The shadow realm..." Ryou said looking up. "no! let me out!" Minako said trying to get out. Mink tried to reach for her deck but mechanical arms took them out of their pockets. "no!" Allen said as the robot took his Deck. Seymour looked up just snickering. "So this is the plan, he wants us as his little test subjects" Seymour said in his mind
"Don't try to struggle because hopefully none of you will come out alive!" Malik said. The dome finally came down upon them. They all closed their eyes but them opened them. They were still in the dining room.
"what happened?" Allen said. "Umm... I don't know.." Enya replied. Suddenly the second group appeared. "Are you guys alright?" Daniel said. "hopefully you won't" Seymour said.
"What?" Mink said. "You people think you're all cool, well we're here to bring you down" Lance said. Suddenly the light gleamed off of them. "those badges, you are eliminators!" Minako said.
"Duh what gave you your first clue" Ian said. "We're here to bring back Mortikai those Millennium Items, we won't fail him" Galadriel said.
"oooo... so fancy but I don't think it'll be happening lets duel!" Enya said. "pish, stupid" Hikari said. "You don't have your decks so how would you duel us"
"Hey you may think your going to bring us down but you have another thing coming!" Jess said. "Oh we don't expect to duel you now..." Mitaru said. "We just want to give you a little challenge".
Everyone was confused, they were back to where they were, the big dining room, nothing had change. Suddenly the doors closed on the 2nd group. They all rushed over to the doors and opened it. "They're gone..." Daniel said. "But it's a small room how could they have disappeared?!" Jess said.
"You guys we're not in the real world..." Ryou said. "What do you mean?" Jess asked. As soon as Ryou could respond the doors started closing slowly. Daniel and Jess were inspecting the room. Suddenly the doors started closing faster. "Watch out!" Allen yelled out. Daniel and Jess finally saw the doors closing. Jess reach out to get out but the door closed tightly. "what's going on?! open the doors!" Mink yelled trying to pry them open. After a while the doors finally opened. Nothing was in the room.
"Where'd they go?!" Allen said. Allen took a step but Minako pulled him back. "You might get separated if you go in!" She said.
Daniel and Jess were not gone but no one knows where. They stood around thinking what to do. "You know... we aren't" Ryou tried the say but suddenly a hole opened on the ground. Ryou fell in but Allen reacted quickly and grabbed his hand. "What's going on!" Mink said. The others ran to help but then the hole grew wider and Allen and Ryou fell in. As soon as the others took 1 step close the hole closed. "What's going to happen to us?!" Enya said.
Suddenly another hole formed under Enya. "no!" Mink said diving to grab her hand but Enya fell to far. "no..." Mink said swiping her hand back. "We can't be in the real world, nor the shadow realm" Minako said looking about. Mink got up. "Well if we're not what we think we're in where are we?" Mink said. "Beats me maybe we'll find out soon" Minako replied.
"Here, I think the doors are moving" Daniel said. Jess and Daniel we're pushing the doors open a hard as they could. When they opened it a cool breeze went into the room. They were in the middle of a sunny day field. "Ok.... weren't we in the castle?" Jess said. "Yeah.. but what's going on..." Daniel said.
They stepped out and then the door disappeared behind them. "We're not in the shadow realm..." Jess said. Meanwhile Allen and Ryou have been falling through the hole. A while later they fell onto a soft ground, "A forest..." Ryou said. Allen and Ryou got up. "Where are we?" Allen asked. "We're not in the shadow realm or the castle anymore...." Ryou said.
Allen stood there confused, "We're in the virtual world..." Ryou said. "It's just a made up world for a new game at the Kaiba Corp but it seemed Mortikai and Malik have used their Millennium Items to make it real" Ryou said looking down, "Well how do we get out?" Allen said. "Not sure yet.... lets find the others" Ryou replied.
Enya suddenly got up and looked out to the sky. "Where am I?" She thought. She was at the foot of a lake where she could see fish swim about. "It can't be the shadow realm, but I'm not in the castle.... maybe I should find the others..." Enya said she started walking toward a path to find the others.
Suddenly a screen popped up in front of the people. It was Malik, "Ahh I see you have all separated now, Well you see your not at the castle or Shadow Realm, Your in what we call the Duel Monsters World, Its a new system Mortikai has been working on. I, Malik, have been smart to join up to test this thing out, as long as you stay alive you will be safe, oh and one more thing... everything is much real, don't go and be ignorant of all the realistic creatures." Malik said, then the screen disappeared.
"So we're in a virtual world that's very much alive" Jess said. They both started walking through the field. "So what do we have to do to get out of this world?" Daniel asked. "Beat who ever stands in our way" Jess said.
As they walked the clouds flew over them. Suddenly Daniel kicked his shoe into something. "What's what?" He said picking up the device. "It looks like it goes on your arm" Jess said.
Daniel placed it on his wrist. "whoa!" Daniel said whipping it off. "What?" Jess replied. "Something weird... I felt something weird..." He said. As he took the device off he noticed something black on his wrist. "A bar code..." Jess said. Suddenly a compartment opened revealing Daniel's deck and cards. "My deck..." He said.
Suddenly Jess kicked into an object. "It's my deck..." Jess said picking up the device. She let it scan her empty wrist revealing a bar code. "What's with these bar codes..." Jess said. "Well it probably means something serious" Daniel said.
The others as well had found their devices and got their bar codes. As Daniel and Jess walked through the field they felt the wind change directions. "What was that?!" Jess said turning around and looking up. Daniel had also turned around looking up. They saw a dragon flying through he sky and it had some rider on it. It flew around for a couple times then it dived at them. "Now show your true strength!" The rider said.
The dragon started blowing fire at them. "move!" Daniel said pulling Jess out of the way as the fire blew past them. "What the hell..." Jess said getting up.
"I'll handle this" Daniel said. "Activate Man-Eater Bug!" Daniel yelled revealing the card. Nothing happened... Daniel tried to summon it but still nothing happen. Suddenly the dragon flew down to the ground, the rider hopped off with a devilish smirk.
"You're not human?!" Jess said amazed. "No..." The rider said in a deep and evil voice. "Hey.... you look like Alligator Sword..." Daniel said. "That's because I am you delinquent" He yelled raising his sword. "No need to get all fussy" Jess said.
"You 2 have not been worthy to battle me so I should end you right here right now." He said pointing his sword to Jess. Daniel grabbed a card from his deck. "Don't think anything like that can work" The Alligator said moving his eyes to Daniel.
"What do you want?!" Jess said looking back in a mean look. "I want to challenge one of you to a duel!" The alligator said putting back his sword in is sheath. Jess moved to Daniel. "Who should duel him?" She whispered. "Well maybe you can, I've already dueled Oden" Daniel said.
"Alright I'll duel you!" Jess said. "Fine... but if you lose you'll be all alone!" The Alligator said. Suddenly a long grave burst from the ground by hind Daniel. It changed his arms and legs down and moved him facing up. Suddenly a long axe fell out from the sky and stopped in front of Daniel's face. "What the?!" Daniel yelled trying to move. "Don't bother to try to break free your stuck until She wins the duel. Every time she lose Life Points the axe will move down closer, finally if she loses all her life points you will be destroyed." The Alligator said.
"You got to be crazy!" Jess said. "Would you like to forfeit and let your friend die?" The Alligator said. "no..." Jess looked to the corner. "Then lets duel!" The Alligator said taking out the Duel Shocker from his back. Suddenly Jess' device folded out into the Duel Shocker.
"Prepare to lose, you won't stand a chance!" The Alligator said giving an evil smile.
"ok everyone!" Mink said as she saw them walk up the long stairs. "This tournament will be ending really fast soon!" Jess said.
"We just gotten all 10 star chips for us!" Mink said. "Yeah so?" Allen said. "Yeah and we've been dueling extra a lot!" Jess said. Jess nudged Ryou. Ryou dug into his pocket taking out a bandana with something inside. It was a whole bunch of star chips suited for each of them.
"no way!" Daniel said. "And we're giving them all to you! no charge!" Mink said. "Well.. I don't see why....." Enya said but suddenly someone broke out. "What are you guys doing!" the voice yelled out.
It was Espa Roba. "I've been looking for all of you! I heard you off of my radio say to meet here and I hope you have enough star chips for me!" Espa Roba said. "Sorry but this is a secret and we need to stick together...." Jess said.
"Yeah bu what about me! I have a Millennium Item! I can beat you all so easily!" Espa Roba said. "Why is that?" Minako said. "Because...". Espa Roba tore off his Jacket revealing a shiny metal on his shirt. "I am an Eliminator!"
"so you were hired by Mortikai.... you traitor..." Mink said. "No! you guys are traitors! I hear what you guys are trying to do! you want to stop Mortikai from saving the world!" Espa said hissing. "What?" Minako said. "No we're not...." Daniel said. "Yeah that why Mortikai hired me! to make sure you guys stay out!" Epsa said. "He hired me because he knew I wouldn't let him down! I was going to make sure he beat you guys! and I was right by his side!"
Espa Roba went on and on and everyone got bored. "I'm sure you like Mortikai but we got to stop HIM from sending the world into Chaos... think of this as helping you" Mink said. She put all the star chips in the dial and turned it opening the door. "Come back here!" Espa Roba said holding a fist.
"come on Daniel!" Allen said. "but... I want to.." but Allen interrupted. "You want to stay with little mr. come on lets bore the hell out of everyone?!" Allen said grabbing his arm and pulling him inside the castle. The door shut and they could hear little hummings of Espa Roba. "I'd hate to still be out of here...." Enya said.
"Well no that we're in the castle lets find Mortikai!" Mink said. Suddenly the lights grew dark and everyone could hear humms. "I can't see!!" Minako screamed. It was real dark and everyone scattered. "I found you!" Ryou said grabbing onto Jess.
Suddenly the lights grew dim. They saw a cloaked man near a torch. "a Rare Hunter!" Daniel said turning around. "Yes... and I have gained entrance to the castle. I had a feeling you people would pass by here" He said.
"My name is Oden and I plan to stop you! Mink!" Oden said lifting his head and revealing his face. "Talk about creepy" Enya said. "So you want to duel me?!" Mink said.
"No... I want to break all of you up!" He said. "Then I'll duel you!" Daniel said. "What? No I want to duel him!" Mink said pushing him back. "Oh come on give me a whack at these Rare Hunters! I can do it!" Daniel said. "I'll give you a real whack!" Mink said taking out her Millennium Rod. "Ahhh the Millennium Rod..." Oden said as his eyes grew in delight. "Not only will I take you're Millennium Item but I will also take your soul!" Oden said laughing.
Mink and Daniel were now shoving each other. "Hurry up I don't have all day!" Oden yelled. "Mink..." Ryou said putting his hand on his shoulder. "You already had a chance with a Rare Hunter why don't you let Daniel do this duel?"
"Oh fine" Mink said crossing her arms. "Very well... We will duel within the depths of the Shadow Realm!" Oden said. Suddenly they could see the Millennium Symbol right above Oden. "What is that?" jess said.
"Master! Bring us to the Shadow Realm!" Oden yelled as he raised his arms. Suddenly the room turned gloomy and dark. "Bring out the souls!" Oden yelled.
Suddenly everyone except Daniel fell to the ground, sleeping. Dark gray clouds formed in front of them. "What have you done?!" Daniel yelled. "I've only removed their precious souls. You will get them back... if you win" Oden said.
"Then I shouldn't be in this form" Daniel said. Suddenly his eyes grew from innocent to devious. "My Millennium Scale will guide me through along with my spirit" He said as he took out his Millennium Scale.
"What?! you too have a Millennium Item?!" Oden said taking a step back. "Cut the chat lets duel" Daniel said. "Very well..." Oden said.
"We will duel without tributes... and if I win I'll make master even happier by earning The Millennium Rod AND Your Scale" Oden said pointing at him. Daniel just gave a mean smirk. "You'll be surprised in what I have in store for you"
"First I'll summon Ryu-Ran(2200/2600) in attack mode!" Daniel said. A hole ripped through the air opening a gateway. The dragon busted out. "You'll notice that the monster seem pretty real... you'll be surprised when I attack you directly..." Oden said. "Hmph...." Daniel said. "I'll be sure that will not happen!"
"I place 3 cards face down and end my turn!" He said. Oden laughed. "It's a pity... All in my firs turn..." Oden said. "What?!" Daniel blurted out.
"I guess it'll be helpful" Oden said. "I summon Corp Liner(2400/2300) in attack mode!" Oden said. Daniel was confused but he knew he could easily beat that Corp Liner. Daniel drew his card with an idea. "I use this magic card Salamandra to raise Ryu-Ran's attack to 2900!" He said.
"Then 1 face down monster card" Daniel said. Daniel's turn ended and it went over to Oden. "This is just too easy..." Oden said. "Corp Liner! attack Ryu-Ran!" He yelled
Suddenly Corp Liner drew it's sword and sliced the dragon in half, destroying it. "what?! how?" Daniel stuttered. "Corp Liners special ability... When it attacks any Equip cards that are equipped to the opponent are negated while Corp Liner attacks" Oden said. "And something even better... Instead of doing battle calculation half of Ryu-Rans attack points are deducted from your life points. That's Corp Liner's other ability"
Daniel was shocked toward the strength of that monster. Daniels life points were instantly reduced to 1550. He didn't stand a chance against Corp Liner unless he attacked it.
The turn was Daniel's. He drew his card. "hmm... yes.. this should work" He said. "I summon Red Eyes Black Dragon(2400/2000) into attack mode!"
"Then this card Malevolent Nuzzler to raise it to to 3100!" Daniel said. "Red Eyes Black Dragon! attack Corp Liner!" He yelled. The Dragon blasted a blaze of fire at the Corp Liner destroying it. "And don't forget about Corp Liners third ability you lose the amount of attack points that Corp Liner had!"
The score stood to Daniel: 1550 and Oden: 600. Oden was shocked now. "This is the first someone had a chance of bringing me down... I assure you I will not lose" Oden threatened.
"Bring it on!" Daniel said. "I play Pot of Greed to draw 2 cards!" Oden said. "Yes this is perfect..."
"I use Monster Reborn to bring back Corp Liner!" Oden said. "Then from my hand I tribute 2 monsters and Corp Liner to summon the ultimate god there is!"
"you have a god card?!" Daniel said in shock. "Yeah. And it's my key to winning this duel and your Millennium Scale!" Oden said.
"I summon Pyramid God of Ancient Darkness!!(5600/4600)" Oden yelled. A dark fog crept in. Daniel couldn't see even his opponent now. The fog finally cleared out revealing a giant black Pyramid with an eye on it. "What the heck is that?!" Daniel said. "View the power of my Ultimate Monster!" Oden yelled.
"You haven't won yet!" Daniel said. "I will in the next turn... you see. Pyramid God of Ancient Darkness allows me to activate any Magic card in my deck... and even yours. I just have to know your deck to win!" Oden yelled.
"and Finally I activate Dian Keto Cure Master to raise my Life Points to 1600!" Oden yelled. "This guy is a freak... He has a god card but... wait... I have one too... I'll match him god to god!" Daniel said.
"Your the one in for the surprise now!" Daniel said. "Yeah I'm sure, Pyramid attack his Red Eyes Black Dragon!"
"Then I activate my magic card! Scapegoat!" Daniel said. Suddenly 4 goats appeared and the attack from Pyramid God destroyed one of them. "You have 3 goats left yet I can still win this duel!" Oden said.
"Your really confident... I'm not even sure if I should let my self win... but if I lose I know the consequences...." Daniel said.
"I play Pot of Greed!" Daniel said. Hoping for luck Daniel drew his 2 cards. He needed the right on to get the card he needed. "hmm a White Curtain.." Daniel said.
"Yes this could work!" He said. "I activate White Curtain!"
"what does that do?!" Oden said. "it lets me special summon a Witch of The Black Forest(1100/1200) to the field!" Daniel said. He placed it face down onto his field. "One more turn and I'll use the Witch's effect!" Daniel said.
"This won't help you defeat me!" Oden said. "Pyramid God! attack his Witch of The Black Forest!"
The Pyramid's eye opened and a black beam shot out destroying the witch. "You just made 1 big mistake!" Daniel said. "What?! how can I?!" Oden yelled.
"Witch of The Black Forest lets me take a card from my deck to my hand" Daniel said. "Too bad you never knew my deck because... I have a god card also!"
Oden stepped back in shock. The turn went over to Daniel. "I sacrifice all the cards in my graveyard out fo play to summon God of The Scale, Anubis!(4500/0000)"
Suddenly the Millennium Symbol came into view. The eye opened wider and a bright light shot down. Oden covered his eyes. "Fear the power of my ultimate monster!" Daniel yelled as the light shot out revealing The God of The Scale.
"You forget my power of my God!" Oden said. "I activate Pyramid God to activate Thousand Knives to destroy your God of Anubis!". Suddenly knives flooded the room all facing the Anubis. "I activate Magic Drain!"
"How can you, you have no cards but Anubis on the field!" Oden stammered. "I'ts God of Anubis' special effect, Just like your Pyramid I can activate any trap cards from my deck!" Daniel replied. Oden looked through his deck and yelled. "what no magic cards?" Daniel said casually.
Oden growled. The effect of Thousand Knives was negated. "Just remember. I can still destroy your God of Anubis, My Pyramid has a higher attack than you!"
Daniel suddenly paused. "That's right, oh man.. I'm going to lose, unless...." He thought. Daniel had to just think straight. Daniel drew his card in hope.
"hmmm... the card I won from heather... maybe this can work..." Daniel thought. "I summon Jinzo #4 (2400/400) in attack mode!"
"Jinzo #4 stops all monsters 2000 attack points and up from attacking on the opponents side so your Pyramid God cannot attack!" Daniel said. Oden yelled. Oden drew his card and skipped his turn accepting defeat but in a mean way. "I assure you sir Malik will destroy you all!"
"Malik?" Daniel said to himself but he snapped out his thoughts. "I activate God of Anubis' effect. I sacrifice all the card in my hand to raise Anubis' attack from 4500 to 6000"
"Jinzo #4 and God of The Scale, Anubis! attack his life points, directly!" Daniel yelled. Both the monsters attacked Oden. Oden fell to his feet, hurt by the attacks. "No release my friends" Daniel said.
Suddenly the Millennium Symbol appeared over Oden's head and the eye closed. The darkness fell. Daniel returned to his human form and everybody woke up from the ground.
"hey guys!" Daniel said running over to them. "What happened?" Mink said as she got up. "You guys got your souls trapped but I won the duel with my God Card" Daniel replied.
"That's cool" Ryou said as he got up also helping Jess get up. "Hey look over there!" Allen said. There were 2 cards and a badge on he ground. "So that Rare Hunter was a Eliminator...." Minako said.
Daniel picked up the Pyramid God of Ancient Darkness, his new Raikejin card, and the Eliminator badge. "Well what now?" Daniel said. "We go" Mink sad pointing down the hall where the big doors were, where Mortikai lurked.
"You fool" Malik said. "I'm sorry but I couldn't defend my self!" Oden said. "I don't want to hear your excuses, to oblivion with you" Malik said. Suddenly a hole opened and Oden got sucked in, trapped forever. "Malik I know you are there..." A voice said into the screen.
"Who are you" Malik said turning over to the giant screen. "I am sire Mortikai I think you will be interested in this" Mortikai said holding up the Millennium Scroll.
"Ahh so you possess a millennium item" Malik said pleased. "That's right, I'll be happy to give it to you unless you come on my side..." Mortikai said. Malik nodded and Mortikai started telling his plan.
Daniel and Allen pushed open the big doors revealing a large dining hall. At the end of the table was a man in a suit. "Yes you must be the.. 1... 2.. 3.. hey there's only 6 of you!" The man said.
"Yeah, our 6th person disappeared." Mink said. The man started talking into his radio with a worried face. "Don't worry I have a plan" the voice said back.
"Anyway my name is Graden I hope you have had a fun time here, stick around and have some lunch." They all sat down at the table. There were 6 extra seats though.
"Bring in the copy cats" Graden said into the radio. Suddenly a curtain opened revealing the 2nd group. "Please meet are very special guest, Mitaru, Seymour, Galadriel, Lance, Ian, and Hikari" Graden said.
The group walked down the stairs each giving an glare at their counter parts. Seymour gave a mean smirk at Daniel. "I hope you will enjoy your stay" Graden said leaving the giant dinning room.
The copy cats started whispering to each other. "We have to beat these little creeps?! seems too easy" Lance whispered to Seymour. Seymour chuckled.
"These guys look freaky" Allen whispered to Mink. "I heard that!" Hikari jumped up from her chair. "don't have a tantrum" Ian said casually. Hikari sat down with a grumble. "So... why did you guys come here for" Lance said. "Well umm..." Enya said. "Oh keeping it secret, same here" Galadriel said interrupting Enya.
Suddenly Graden came back in. "I hope I was interrupting anything but our host, Mortikai would like a few words with you." Graden said and going back into the double doors. Suddenly a big screen lowered from the ceiling. It was a 2 sided screen. Mortikai came up on the first screen. "Welcome duelist. I hope you've been having fun in my tournament. But I've been meaning to test out 1 last invention" Mortikai went on.
Suddenly the back of the screen turned on. "who is that?" Jess said. "Oh no..." Ryou said. "who is it???" Allen said. "It's Malik.." Ryou said.
"That's Malik???" Mink said. "Yes I am Malik, Mink I know you know I've been sending out my un-loyal rare hunters after you're Millennium Rod but I thought other wise but now I decided to join with Mr. Montiearo and help get all of your Millennium Items"
"What is he talking about?!" Mitaru said. "So we've decided to add my machinery with ancient magic of the Millennium Scroll!" Mortikai said. Suddenly the the bars came around the group tying them down on the chair. "What is this?!" Lance yelled. "oh it's nothing just so that you don't escape."
Suddenly a large dome flew over them. Dark lightning strikes came down. "The shadow realm..." Ryou said looking up. "no! let me out!" Minako said trying to get out. Mink tried to reach for her deck but mechanical arms took them out of their pockets. "no!" Allen said as the robot took his Deck. Seymour looked up just snickering. "So this is the plan, he wants us as his little test subjects" Seymour said in his mind
"Don't try to struggle because hopefully none of you will come out alive!" Malik said. The dome finally came down upon them. They all closed their eyes but them opened them. They were still in the dining room.
"what happened?" Allen said. "Umm... I don't know.." Enya replied. Suddenly the second group appeared. "Are you guys alright?" Daniel said. "hopefully you won't" Seymour said.
"What?" Mink said. "You people think you're all cool, well we're here to bring you down" Lance said. Suddenly the light gleamed off of them. "those badges, you are eliminators!" Minako said.
"Duh what gave you your first clue" Ian said. "We're here to bring back Mortikai those Millennium Items, we won't fail him" Galadriel said.
"oooo... so fancy but I don't think it'll be happening lets duel!" Enya said. "pish, stupid" Hikari said. "You don't have your decks so how would you duel us"
"Hey you may think your going to bring us down but you have another thing coming!" Jess said. "Oh we don't expect to duel you now..." Mitaru said. "We just want to give you a little challenge".
Everyone was confused, they were back to where they were, the big dining room, nothing had change. Suddenly the doors closed on the 2nd group. They all rushed over to the doors and opened it. "They're gone..." Daniel said. "But it's a small room how could they have disappeared?!" Jess said.
"You guys we're not in the real world..." Ryou said. "What do you mean?" Jess asked. As soon as Ryou could respond the doors started closing slowly. Daniel and Jess were inspecting the room. Suddenly the doors started closing faster. "Watch out!" Allen yelled out. Daniel and Jess finally saw the doors closing. Jess reach out to get out but the door closed tightly. "what's going on?! open the doors!" Mink yelled trying to pry them open. After a while the doors finally opened. Nothing was in the room.
"Where'd they go?!" Allen said. Allen took a step but Minako pulled him back. "You might get separated if you go in!" She said.
Daniel and Jess were not gone but no one knows where. They stood around thinking what to do. "You know... we aren't" Ryou tried the say but suddenly a hole opened on the ground. Ryou fell in but Allen reacted quickly and grabbed his hand. "What's going on!" Mink said. The others ran to help but then the hole grew wider and Allen and Ryou fell in. As soon as the others took 1 step close the hole closed. "What's going to happen to us?!" Enya said.
Suddenly another hole formed under Enya. "no!" Mink said diving to grab her hand but Enya fell to far. "no..." Mink said swiping her hand back. "We can't be in the real world, nor the shadow realm" Minako said looking about. Mink got up. "Well if we're not what we think we're in where are we?" Mink said. "Beats me maybe we'll find out soon" Minako replied.
"Here, I think the doors are moving" Daniel said. Jess and Daniel we're pushing the doors open a hard as they could. When they opened it a cool breeze went into the room. They were in the middle of a sunny day field. "Ok.... weren't we in the castle?" Jess said. "Yeah.. but what's going on..." Daniel said.
They stepped out and then the door disappeared behind them. "We're not in the shadow realm..." Jess said. Meanwhile Allen and Ryou have been falling through the hole. A while later they fell onto a soft ground, "A forest..." Ryou said. Allen and Ryou got up. "Where are we?" Allen asked. "We're not in the shadow realm or the castle anymore...." Ryou said.
Allen stood there confused, "We're in the virtual world..." Ryou said. "It's just a made up world for a new game at the Kaiba Corp but it seemed Mortikai and Malik have used their Millennium Items to make it real" Ryou said looking down, "Well how do we get out?" Allen said. "Not sure yet.... lets find the others" Ryou replied.
Enya suddenly got up and looked out to the sky. "Where am I?" She thought. She was at the foot of a lake where she could see fish swim about. "It can't be the shadow realm, but I'm not in the castle.... maybe I should find the others..." Enya said she started walking toward a path to find the others.
Suddenly a screen popped up in front of the people. It was Malik, "Ahh I see you have all separated now, Well you see your not at the castle or Shadow Realm, Your in what we call the Duel Monsters World, Its a new system Mortikai has been working on. I, Malik, have been smart to join up to test this thing out, as long as you stay alive you will be safe, oh and one more thing... everything is much real, don't go and be ignorant of all the realistic creatures." Malik said, then the screen disappeared.
"So we're in a virtual world that's very much alive" Jess said. They both started walking through the field. "So what do we have to do to get out of this world?" Daniel asked. "Beat who ever stands in our way" Jess said.
As they walked the clouds flew over them. Suddenly Daniel kicked his shoe into something. "What's what?" He said picking up the device. "It looks like it goes on your arm" Jess said.
Daniel placed it on his wrist. "whoa!" Daniel said whipping it off. "What?" Jess replied. "Something weird... I felt something weird..." He said. As he took the device off he noticed something black on his wrist. "A bar code..." Jess said. Suddenly a compartment opened revealing Daniel's deck and cards. "My deck..." He said.
Suddenly Jess kicked into an object. "It's my deck..." Jess said picking up the device. She let it scan her empty wrist revealing a bar code. "What's with these bar codes..." Jess said. "Well it probably means something serious" Daniel said.
The others as well had found their devices and got their bar codes. As Daniel and Jess walked through the field they felt the wind change directions. "What was that?!" Jess said turning around and looking up. Daniel had also turned around looking up. They saw a dragon flying through he sky and it had some rider on it. It flew around for a couple times then it dived at them. "Now show your true strength!" The rider said.
The dragon started blowing fire at them. "move!" Daniel said pulling Jess out of the way as the fire blew past them. "What the hell..." Jess said getting up.
"I'll handle this" Daniel said. "Activate Man-Eater Bug!" Daniel yelled revealing the card. Nothing happened... Daniel tried to summon it but still nothing happen. Suddenly the dragon flew down to the ground, the rider hopped off with a devilish smirk.
"You're not human?!" Jess said amazed. "No..." The rider said in a deep and evil voice. "Hey.... you look like Alligator Sword..." Daniel said. "That's because I am you delinquent" He yelled raising his sword. "No need to get all fussy" Jess said.
"You 2 have not been worthy to battle me so I should end you right here right now." He said pointing his sword to Jess. Daniel grabbed a card from his deck. "Don't think anything like that can work" The Alligator said moving his eyes to Daniel.
"What do you want?!" Jess said looking back in a mean look. "I want to challenge one of you to a duel!" The alligator said putting back his sword in is sheath. Jess moved to Daniel. "Who should duel him?" She whispered. "Well maybe you can, I've already dueled Oden" Daniel said.
"Alright I'll duel you!" Jess said. "Fine... but if you lose you'll be all alone!" The Alligator said. Suddenly a long grave burst from the ground by hind Daniel. It changed his arms and legs down and moved him facing up. Suddenly a long axe fell out from the sky and stopped in front of Daniel's face. "What the?!" Daniel yelled trying to move. "Don't bother to try to break free your stuck until She wins the duel. Every time she lose Life Points the axe will move down closer, finally if she loses all her life points you will be destroyed." The Alligator said.
"You got to be crazy!" Jess said. "Would you like to forfeit and let your friend die?" The Alligator said. "no..." Jess looked to the corner. "Then lets duel!" The Alligator said taking out the Duel Shocker from his back. Suddenly Jess' device folded out into the Duel Shocker.
"Prepare to lose, you won't stand a chance!" The Alligator said giving an evil smile.
