Tristan looked at the groups, and then to Mokuba. "Uh, what do we do here?"

"We take charge!" Mokuba said. HE looked at his sister, and then his brother. He needed to do something, before they all killed each other. Mokuba ran up in-between them, and Tristan followed.

"Alright, here is what we will do. We have 8 duelists, so we will hold a tournament. Now, each of you will be paired off with an opponent of the other side. Me and Tristan will judge and decide the ranks."

All of them nodded, and Geno lead them down to his dueling arena, a massive open space, designed to allow the combatant to run about, making it more of a real battle. Tristan and Mokuba moved to a large computer, and entered some figures. A large lock box slide out of the wall

"Each of you must place all the Greek weapon cards you hold into this safe. Only the person that wins the final battle will be able to receive all 9 cards."

Yami looked over at Geno. "And we are to know if those that Geno put in are real? He has made fake ones before."

Geno rolled his eyes. "Pharaoh, am I to trust you of not doing the same?"

" I am not the villain here."

"But you once were."

"Enough!" Tristan said. He took 8 of the 9 cards, and they glowed. HE slipped 7 into 7 slots in the box, and then held the 1 card with the final card, and they glowed as well. "There, happy?" He said as slipped the cards into the two other spots.

Mokuba then punched in some commands, and a sorter appeared. "Now, each of you must place your rarest non fusion monster in the sorter. This will randomly decide the order.

Yami walked over and slipped his Dark Magician into the sorter. Kaikou followed with her Wingweaver, Joey his Gilford, and Pegasus his Relinquish.

Geno frowned, and gathered from his group a card of there chosing, and quickly put them into the slots. He grinned at Yami, and then returned to his group.

Mokuba looked as the sort whirled, and two cards popped out. "The first match is between the owner of Gilford and the owner of Fire Princess.

Tea cheered, and hopped up and down, grabbing Geno's shoulders. "Yes! Can you believe this! I finally get to duel! And it's Joey too, this will be great!"

Joey smiled. "This is great. I will beat Tea, and snap her out of this crazy state she is in."

Yami frowned. "Be careful, I sense power from her new deck."

Joey didn't care though. He walked up to a spot he liked, and watched as Tea was talked with Geno excitedly.

"I can't wait for this duel!"

"Calm yourself Tea." Geno replied. She closed her eyes, and he helped her activate her duel disk. "Do, feel, don't think. Let the cards flow through you." He leaned in close. "Destroy him."

Tea looked at him, and gave him a kiss. Yami looked at her in shock. Joey frowned.

"Tea, kissing him won't give you luck."

Tea looked at him. "Joey, that was merely thanks." Tea leapt up, and wrapped her legs around Geno, driving him into the wall. She finally released, and walked to her spot.

"That was for luck."

Seto helped a shaken Geno to his feet. "You almost got lucky."

"That was a bad joke."

****NEXT****

Joey shuffled his deck, but all the time watched Tea like a hawk. She looked up at him, and he flashed her a smile.

"Ya know Tea, you really don't have to do this. I mean we're friends, and friends don't fight frie."

"Oh just shut up and draw!" Tea shouted. Joey looked over at Yami in shock. "Hey Joey, I'm over here."

"Tea, why are you so upset?" Yami asked.

"I'm upset that I have been training to duel and this little coward wants out!"

Joey had steam coming out of his ears. "COWARD? DID SHE CALL ME A COWARD???"

Seto frowned. "Did she stutter Wheeler?"

Geno played with his dagger. "Seto, you forget, monkeys have problems understanding simple commands."

"MONKEY!!!!"

"Alright, all of you, back off." Tristan said. "One more word out of you and I'll.." Geno leveled his dagger to point it at Tristan's chest. "..do something."

Mokuba nodded. "Now, Joey, you get first draw."

Tea nodded at Mokuba. "Thank you."

"Well Tea, I'll start things out with this!' Joey laid a card, and Alligator Sword jumped out and ran at Tea. She sighed, and moved out of the way. "What, not even a scream?"

"Sorry Joey, but if it doesn't scare you, it won't scare me."

Seto looked over at Geno. "I see your still teaching Talking Smack 101."

"She passed with flying colors."

Tea looked down at her hand. "I will start by making sure your little Gator is dealt with. First, I activate Dark Door!" On the field, a massive wall rose up, cutting the room I half, with only a small space for Tristan and Mokuba to move to see each part of the duel. A small doorway opened up. "This card will make it that only one monster can attack each turn. Next, I will summon Dancing Fairy in attack mode!" Joey nearly fell over laughing as the three little pixies flew through the door.

"That's your monster? Seems like your deck hasn't changed."

"watch it Joey! You don't know what else her deck has!" Kaikou scolded.

"I got this Raia." Joey said. Kaikou rolled her eyes.

"No, you don't Joey. Attack my fairies!" The three rushed Alligator Sword, and in a poof of smoke, it was gone. The fairies flew back through the door. (Joey-3800)

"Well, you may have blocked me, but I will just have to deal with your fairies the same old way. I will set two cards, and summon Harpies Bro, Attack! Give up?" Joey asked. (Tea-3900)

Tea shrugged. "You know Joey, you should be careful about sending your monster over to my side of the field."

"Why's that?"

"You don't know what they will catch." As she said this, Harpies Bro shook, and began to cry out as dots covered him.

"What did you do?"

"I activated Ekibyo Drakmord. This rare disease will stop your monster from attacking, and will also destroy him 2 turns from now."

"Of all the dirt tricks Tea.."
