CH 6 Cubone's Card Cache
DJ lead the way out of the tunnel, with his newly captured Cubone at his side.
"Skull, what do you think? Wanna help me win a stone badge?" Skull nodded, not so sad anymore. It then stopped where it was walking, and ran off to the left, towards a corner in the cave.
"Skull, wait up! Don't go!" Skull continued to run, but not away from DJ. It reached the corner, and with closer inspection, DJ noticed a crack in the wall. Skull fit through easily, but DJ did not. He started to dig a little, and Skull stuck its head out of the crack and also began to dig. Soon the hole was big enough for DJ, and he crawled in.
"Skull, what is this?" Skull jumped up and down, waving its arms happily. It took something from deeper inside of the crack, and came out to show DJ.
"A box? What's inside, Skull?" Skull let out a small "Ceeuuuubone" and handed the small and worn down wooden box to DJ.
"Hmm, let's see what's inside." DJ flipped open the latch and opened it. "Whoa! Excellent! Skull! Are these all for me?" Skull let out another cry and nodded its head, approvingly.
"Thank you, Skull!"
"So, are you gonna tell us what's in the box?"
"Oh, sorry! Have a look!" DJ turned to face the others, and Skull turned and moped. DJ noticed just in time before it started to cry.
"Skull! Come here and share! There's plenty for you!" DJ looked at the cards.
"Skull, can I share these with you, Alicia, and Bakura?" Skull nodded for the third time, this being the most enthusiastic one.
"Let's see, oh my God!" DJ jumped back and fell on his butt, staring at the card.
"What is it?"
"Nothing, just tripped."
"You just tripped? That's it? I don't think so! You're holding an Egyptian God card, DJ."
"You again!"
"What are you talking about DJ?"
"Who are you? Can you see everything I do?"
"Why, yes. I'm inside you."
"What is your name?"
"Why are interested in such frivolities?"
"I asked for your name, not - your age, or something. Wait! Your age! The bracelet is really old! Like, thousands! I know that much!"
"You don't know much more, do you."
"Grr. Just tell me your name."
"My name is Soto."
"So, Soto, what do you know about these Egyptian God cards? You're apparently an owner of one!"
"Hm. I know they're beyond your control."
"We'll see. All try to use this card."
"I doubt you can. Only a chosen few can read the text on The Winged Dragon of Ra.
"Even fewer know all its secrets."
"Than give me Slifer, I can control it!" Don't be a fool!"
"Let me prove it! If you're actually good, and not evil, than I can trust you to step in if Slifer gets out of hand."
"Fine. Take it. But I give you fair warning."
"DJ? What card is it?"
"Huh, Oh yeah, it wasn't the card, I just tripped, sorry."
"Well, are you done dividing them?"
"Yep, and ready to hand out. Bakura, here's yours, and you guys, don't be mad, I just put cards in according to what I knew about your decks. And here's yours, Alicia." DJ winked, and looked down at her pile. "Whoa, good call, DJ! I've always needed this card! Thank you, Skull!" Bakura patted it on the head, and Skull smiled.
"Huh, DJ!!" Alicia fell back this time, and stood up. DJ winked really hard at her, and she got the point. "Sorry, this cave is rocky."
"Okay, I'm leaving before I get a face plant."
"Okay, let's go."
"Skull, how did you know we had Duel monster cards?" Skull reached up and grabbed a card that was soon to fall out of DJ's pocket. He held it up to DJ's face, and DJ, too patted Skull on the head. DJ took it, and gasped to himself. He was holding Slifer the Sky Dragon. He slipped it into his deck box, and put it away, secretly. That night, they slept in the Pokemon Center. Skull laid on DJ's lap snoring "Cuuuuuuubooooooooone Cuuuuuuuuuuuboooooooone Cuuuuuuuuuubooooooooooone" DJ chuckled, and he heard someone else chuckling, too.
"Alicia, is that you?"
"Yep, I was laughing at Bakura snoring. DJ, did you mean to give me that card?"
"Well, don't you think one Egyptian God card is enough for one deck?"
"I guess you're right. Too many monsters to summon. But I thought Slifer was missing. The spirit of the Millennium Bracelet gave it to me. He doesn't think I can command and control an Egyptian God. And If I can't I don't know if you can, Alicia. Maybe you should wait to see if I can use it."
"How do you know you won't be able to?"
"Well, the spirit of the Bracelet must be as old as the bracelet itself, and that's pretty old, so I'm going to trust his judgment."
"Because he's old?"
"Well, he must have had Slifer for a long while, so, maybe he knows a lot."
"WHY DID YOU GIVE THAT FOOL THE WINGED DRAGON OF RA?" Alicia's body froze, and so did the second hand on the Pokemon Center clock. Soto appeared on the unoccupied couch.
"Would it have done any good in my deck?"
"Of course it would've. If you could use it!"
"I can use an Egyptian God card! You'll see! And I've made the perfect deck for Slifer!"
"I hope you know that Ra is the most powerful! It should be in your deck, not hers! If you're wanting only one Egyptian God in your deck, you should choose Ra!"
"You'll see the full potential of Slifer when its played in combo with the other cards in my deck!"
"I still doubt your abilities to control it!"
"Ugh, you'll see. Can we have a conversation without fighting?"
"I guess so, what's on your mind?"
"You know, everyday, I fell like I know more stuff, like about the Egyptian God cards, ancient Egypt, the ancient game of duel monsters."
(thinking) "No! The more time I'm with this fool, the more our minds merge! Eventually, he'll know my goal! And the fact that I'm not on his side!"
"I think you should've kept Ra for yourself."
"Why, I don't even know what it does! But from you, I know how Slifer the Sky Dragon works!"
"If you take Ra, I'll teach you everything about it!"
"But I gave it to Alicia."
"Hmm. She can't control Ra!"
"It's not like you think I can!"
"Like you said, you're learning more about the ancient ways everyday! Soon, you'll know enough to control Ra, and Slifer, totally."
"Do you really think so?"
"Yup, and you'll be able to have 2 decks, you know, one for Ra and one for Slifer."
"If you say so, but I don't want to take Ra from Alicia, it means a lot to her."
"You just wait. She doesn't know anything of the ancient ways, and she'll never decipher the text on it. She'll try to use it, and it will turn on her. It will destroy her, and she'll hand it back to you. I have foreseen it!"
"Foreseen it?"
"Yes, didn't I ever tell you he powers of the Bracelet?"
"No."
"Well, It has the power to copy the power of any other Millennium Item it comes in contact with. I've come in contact with many Items, all except the Puzzle. That's enough for tonight."
"Wait! I have more questions!"
"Questions? About what, DJ?" Alicia was moving, again, and the clock's hand was moving steadily again.
"Nothing. Nothing."
Okay, have you noticed that the chapters switch off, Yugioh, Pokemon, Yugioh, Pokemon, ECT.? Anywayz, um, yeah. Please R/R.
