Disclaimer: In the last three chapters I told you I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh. I still don't.

This is just a quick chapter, so I hope you don't mind. Please review when you finish reading, if you liked it. Just let me know what you think with a sentence or two! Please, pretty please with a cherry on top!

Interlude

Pov(Hoshiko)

Searching was a tiring task, but I shall continue pursuing the one I seek. I wish to challenge the worlds greatest duelist, but to do that I must find, him or her. Most adults find it out when they hear that an eighteen-year-old girl plays Yu-Gi-Oh. Usually those foolish enough to think only boys plat, and that it's a kid's game. I then proceed to tell them about some of the darker cards in the game. I usually use Devil's Sanctuary as my example.

Well I've made some money writing novels and I've spent it traveling between America and Japan and sometimes on a rare occasion another country. All on a search for the best. I've lost a few times but I never move on 'til I win a rematch. I've been searching for about a year to find the greatest duelist. But no one has proven to be much of a challenge. I've beaten some pretty tough decks too; Cyber-Stein, Yata-Lock, Butterfly Dagger Gearfreed Combos, and lots of other cheap combos have all fallen to my deck.

So I'm still searching for the best duelist in the world. And I never will stop until I find him. Or her. I won't give up even if it takes me a whole year longer, even if it takes longer than that. It is my greatest dream to duel with world champions. I haven't the time to enter many tournaments so I just duel those who have already won really big tournaments.

I wonder if my family misses me. My little sister should be in high school now. I wonder how she's doing? We always were best friends. She cried the day I told her I was leaving. I hope she's not feeling too bad. I'll never forget her crying out to me. I know I miss her a lot and should visit. But I'm on a quest. Maybe I'll visit if someone in that area makes a name for themself and I end up around there anyway. Like that would ever happen. I remember one kid I dueled ran an awful beatdown deck, and the others I dueled didn't know what they were doing.

Flashback

"I attack you with Swords of revealing Light!" Hoshiko's young opponent shouted.

"You can't. It's a magic card and it can't attack."

"Says who?" Asked the kid. "Swords can attack!"

"But this is the card game and the people who made it said magic cards can't attack!"

"I'm not going to play with you because you cheat!" The young child left.

End Flashback

This bus ride is taking to long. I've seen all the scenery before, so it's not that captivating. Hey I think that's my stop coming up. The great duelist Shikomi is supposed to live around here. He runs a Guardian Deck which, is supposed to be very powerful. I've never dueled against one so this should be fun. If the duel proves challenging I may convert to a Guardian Deck myself. It sounds fun enough. The Guardians can only be played when their Equip Card Counterpart is on the field. So it should be interesting to see how it plays. I currently have one Guardian and two Equips for other Guardians so even if I decide to convert I'd need to buy more boosters. Oh well the bus stopped. Time to go!
