Chapter 2: Kaiba's invention. Meet D2

High-Elf Swordsman (HES): I realize the level of violence and swearing in the previous for understanding. chapter of my story. I anyone was offended I apologize. I will try to cut back on the swearing but there will still be some and there will still be a level of violence. Also I do not own Yu-Gi- Oh but the D2 is my creation. Thank you for understanding.

The scene is Seto Kaiba's workshop in his mansion. He is holding a screwdriver and tinkering with a machine of some sort. Suddenly someone walks in. Figure: Hi big bro.

Kaiba: Hey Mokuba.

Mokuba: Come on, Seto. We'll be late for school if you don't hurry up!

Kaiba: I'm not going today. I have to test my newest invention. (Kaiba puts the machine on the floor. It is a custom built version of his duel disk) D2, initialize! (A door opens in the room and a robot enters. It straps the duel disk, already loaded with cards, onto its arm)

D2: Hello Master Kaiba. I am ready to duel you.

Mokuba: I guess I'll see ya. (Looks at watch). Shit, I'm late!

Kaiba: Watch your language! Eight year olds could be reading this even though its rated PG-13 and some people might be offended!

Mokuba: (yelling) Sorry!
