How many times are we going to see a dragon hatching? ~ Harry Potter

Chapter three: Blue the Blue-Eyes White Dragon

The next day the sky was still overcast. Rosa could hear thunder from inside the room. She was glad her classes took place indoors.

She loved her classes, even though taking them meant she missed a good deal of the Battle City tournament. Mokuba always gave her the play-by-plays and Seto had videos of every duel that took place, so she really didn't mind. There probably weren't any duels going on right now anyway, because no sane duelist would duel in a thunderstorm.

"Okay, that's enough for today," the teacher said. "Remember to stay inside until your parents get you, there's a thunderstorm going on."

Rosa sat in the hall, watching all the other kids get picked up. For a moment she remembered her past. She had no memory of her parents; they had died shortly after she was born. Pegasus had adopted her right away, and raised her as his daughter. On her tenth birthday, she had left home to find the thief who had stolen her daddy's Millennium Eye. When she arrived in Battle City, she had not known about the tournament. She had been set upon by bullies, and although Porthos did his best to protect her, it wasn't until the Kaiba brothers had shown up that the bullies left her alone. She befriended Mokuba almost instantly, and Seto had become a big brother to her.

Rosa was startled out of her memories by a clicking noise.

It was the egg.

She picked up the egg. There was more clicking, and some scratching. The egg shook.

Rosa stood up in shock.

It was hatching.

*****

Yamimon was running as fast as his little legs would carry him.

"Come back and play with me!" The Battle Ox yelled at him.

"I don't wanna play anymore!"

"Well, too bad," The Ox laughed. "I DO, and I WILL!!"

"This game is bad!"

"It's my favorite. Ox Smasher Blast!!"

A large explosion made Yamimon fly through the air. He noticed that he and the Battle ox were in the Dark Region of the Shadow Realm.

"Have a nice trip!" The Ox yelled, laughing.

Yamimon flew through the air, out of the dark Shadow Realm and into the real world.

*****

Yugi slowly walked down the street. He had gone out to find someone willing to duel him just for fun, but when it had started to rain, all the duelists found places, dry places, to go.

It had been almost a whole day, and Yami had still not come back.

Yugi was very worried. He looked up at the gray sky and stopped walking. Something that looked like a warp was opening in the sky. Yugi knew what it was right away.

A portal to the Shadow Realm!!

*****

Yamimon shot through the portal into the gray sky of Domino City, nearly crashing into a Kaiba Corp. helicopter.

"HEY!! WATCH IT!!!"

The helicopter made no reply and continued flying away.

"Geez.." Yamimon moaned. He looked down at the city.

"I hope the other Duel Monsters here aren't as rude as that one."

*****

Yugi continued to stare at the sky.

The portal had closed, but Yugi could've sworn something had come out. Whatever it was, he couldn't see it now.

Yugi sighed. For a moment, he had thought Yami was coming back, but he hadn't. He turned his attention away from the sky and resumed walking. Yami was gone.

Boy, was Marik in for a surprise the next time they dueled!!

*****

"It's hatching!!"

Rosa was holding the egg as it shook. She crossed the floor and set it down on a table.

Rosa, Mokuba, and Seto watched the egg as long cracks appeared on it.

Suddenly, with a bang, the egg split in two.

A small dragon flopped onto the table. It had very pale blue, almost white, scales, and bright blue eyes. It flapped its wings experimentally.

"I told you it was a blue-eyes," Rosa said happily.

The baby dragon looked around at them all.

"Hi!" It squeaked.

"Oh brother," Mokuba groaned. "It talks!"

"Hey! I'm no it, I'm a he!" the dragon chimed.

"Hi, Blue," Rosa said picking the dragon up.

"Blue?" Seto asked.

"He's gotta have a name," Rosa insisted.

Mokuba realized something. "Um, how big do Blue-eyes get, exactly?"

"BIG!" Blue exclaimed happily.

"Uh Oh," Seto said.

*****

Yamimon sat happily under an umbrella.

He had taken it from someone walking down the crowded sidewalk. Much screaming and yelling ensued when the man saw a small, gray, talking furball grabbing his umbrella. Needless to say, the man would rather lose his umbrella than deal with whatever the heck the gray fuzzball was.

Now he was sitting in a box, peeking out of the open area between the box and the umbrella, watching the city people go by.

One boy in particular caught his attention. A short boy with multicolored hair trudged along the sidewalk. Yamimon's ears drooped when he saw how sad the boy was.

"Maybe I can cheer him up!"

He leapt out of the box and along behind the boy.

The boy, of course, was Yugi. Still sad about Yami's disappearance, he was taking his time getting home.

He felt like he was being followed. He spun around, and, on impulse, looked down at the sidewalk.

A small, gray fuzzy critter was looking up at him and smiling.

"Hi!" the fuzzball said cheerily.

*****

Blue had drunk about five bowls of milk.

Mokuba had fixed the drink up for the dragon when Blue complained about being hungry. Since Blue was just a baby, and had no teeth yet, the milk was the only thing that he was able to "eat".

Now Blue was sound asleep, his head in the milk bowl.

"I sure hope he doesn't sleep as much as he eats," Rosa said, picking Blue up and wiping off his face.

Blue, still asleep, mumbled something about attacking Kuribohs and mushrooms, and "more milk please".

"He's even hungry when he's asleep!" Mokuba laughed. "If he eats like this all the time, he's really gonna get big fast. And then, there's the trouble of hiding him."

"Well, while he's little, we'll just say he's a stuffed animal," Rosa said.

*****

The gray fuzzball jumped over. "You're not happy, are you?" Its purple eyes were full of curiosity.

"Shh!" Yugi told the creature. He picked it up. "You're a Duel Monster from the Shadow Realm, aren't you?"

"Yep!" The fuzzball chirped. "My name's Yamimon! That means dark-furred monster, 'cause my fur is gray."

"I had a friend named Yami, but he disappeared yesterday," Yugi said sadly.

"You can call me Yami if you want," Yamimon cocked his head, looking very much like a dog. "What's your name?"

"Yugi."

"I like you, Yugi, you're my first friend!"

Yugi smiled. He liked Yamimon too, and was glad that he had found the little guy. It had really cheered him up. "Well, Yami, do you want me to take you to my home? My house is dry and warm."

"Okay," Yamimon said, nodding vigorously.

"Just one thing. Don't talk around my Grandpa, or move, because he'll freak."

"I got it! Not one word! I won't say anything or move a single muscle, I'll."

"Starting now," Yugi said as he headed home.

*****

"Grandpa, I'm home!" Yugi called as he entered the game shop.

"Now remember, you've gotta be really quiet, not a sound and don't move a muscle," He whispered to Yamimon.

"Oh, hello Yugi," Grandpa said, entering the room. He noticed Yamimon. "What's that you've got?"

"This? It's an.uh.good luck toy Tea gave me for luck in the Finals!" Yugi headed upstairs to his room.

"Kids these days," Grandpa sighed once Yugi was gone. "That's the strangest good luck charm I've ever seen!"

Upstairs, Yugi sat Yamimon on the floor of his room. Yamimon squealed with delight when he saw all the toys and games in the room. He hopped over to a Rubix Cube and played with it for a while.

While Yamimon was occupied, Yugi sat on his bed and examined his Millennium Puzzle, hoping to find some clues to Yami's disappearance.

"What's that?" Yamimon asked, jumping onto the bed and looking at the puzzle.

"My Millennium Puzzle."

"Cool! What's it do?"

"Nothing, now that Yami is gone," Yugi said sadly.

"Awww, don't be sad, Yugi," Yamimon placed his little paws on the Millennium Puzzle. "I'm sure Yami's around."

Just then Yamimon's stomach growled.

"Do you have any food?" Yamimon asked. "I'm hungry."

"I'll see what I can do," Yugi replied as he headed downstairs to the refrigerator.

*****

The next morning, everything was quiet, until Blue scampered through the halls, a barking Porthos at his heels.

"Wake up!" Blue sang as he climbed up onto Rosa's bed. "Wake up!"

Rosa glared at the baby dragon. "Blue, it's six in the morning. On Saturday."

"So?" Blue bounced up and down on the bed with excitement. "We can go see Battle City!!"

"I can," Rosa said, "but you can't, unless you don't move OR don't say anything."

"Aw, why?"

"Because most people aren't used to seeing a talking dragon," Rosa explained.

"Okay," Blue flopped onto the bed and did his best to resemble a plushie. "How's this?"

"Perfect," Rosa said, smiling. "Come on, Blue."

*****

Yamimon was finding out that pretending to be a toy was hard, especially since there were all sorts of cool sights to see in Battle City.

"Stop squirming!" Yugi said, trying hard not to move his lips.

"I'm hot!" Yamimon whined.

"Shh!" Yugi hissed, clapping his hand over Yamimon's mouth. Yugi sighed.

Yami was never this much trouble.
