Chapter 2 Learning to battle

Welcome back. Last time I updated I got the story started by introducing the newest form of battle. Now let's see if they can master it, and by the way, I know there are generally not that many guitars in a band, but I have my reasons for there being so many so please bear with me.

Yugi- this is stupid. Why are we using instruments to battle?

Eagle- because it's more fun. Besides, you'll get back on the Anime talk show again sooner.

Yugi- oh well I guess its okay.

Yami- you mean we can go back and see that hot hostess.

Eagle- yes

Yami- well let's start this chapter.

"How do you awaken an instinct?" Joey asked as he looked up from the paper only to find out that the girl was gone.

"Guess we'll find out tomorrow." Tristan remarked as they looked around for the girl only to realize that she was gone.

The next day, everyone walked to the address that was on the paper. It wasn't far from the turtle game shop but Yugi didn't remember there ever being a building there.  It resembled Seto Kaiba's mansion. A concrete wall surrounded the property with a metal gate being the only way onto the grounds. As they approached the gate it opened by itself. Surprised by the gate opening without anyone around, the gang walked in. inside the wall it was like walking into another world.  Trees and flowers dotted the landscape a white brick path lead from the gate to the house. A small stream trickled underneath the walkway.

"Welcome, if you don't want to be here I suggest you leave." The girl's voice called through the landscape.

They looked at each other. After several minutes, the gate closed and locked behind them. They jumped surprised by the sudden action. They turned to look at the gate then turned back towards the house. The girl now stood before them. She was wearing the same outfit from the day before but they could now see what was under the cloak. Underneath it was a white outfit like what Queen Cleopatra wore. She wore a gold headband and gold anklets and armlets.

"Well are you ready for your first day of training?" she asked as she walked over to the group.

"Wait a minute who said anything about training?" Joey asked moving in between the girl and the rest of the group.

"It seems I've not quite explained the situation well enough to you." The girl replied her shoulders sagging as she backed up slightly. "Follow me, I'll see if I can't explain better" she finished as she turned towards the house.

Joey led the group into the house. He stopped dead in his tracks causing every one behind him to crash into him and fell over,

"Joey." Tea screamed as she managed to get up.

"Welcome to the Heavens." The girl remarked as every one got up. They were no longer in the building they had just been to. They were now surrounded by clouds. A few pyramids stood alone in the distance. "Now that I have completed that part. I will hand you over to my boss." The girl remarked as she backed from the group and disappeared behind a cloud. A man appeared from behind the same cloud. He wore only a cloth around his waist and an Egyptian crown.

A glow surrounded him as he walked towards them. His tan skin glistened in the glow. The group looked at him in awe. He was a good five feet taller than Joey and Tristan. He chuckled as he looked at them. In a second, he shrunk down to a normal size.

"My name is…" the man started

"Ra?" Yugi sounded surprising the group.

"Yes. I am Ra." The man replied with a nod and a smile. "You are here to be the next protectors of Earth." He continued. Behind him several racks appeared. On the racks were different instruments. The instruments floated towards the group. The lead guitar went to Yugi, the bass guitar went to Joey, and drumsticks went to Tristan, the keyboard floated towards Tea, the last electric guitar floated to Ryou.

They reached out and grabbed the instruments. The girl returned from behind the cloud. She walked towards them the same glow that surrounded Ra was now surrounding her. She carried something in her hands.  As she neared them, the glowing got brighter. She handed what she had to Ra. He smiled then handed it back and waved her off. She nodded politely then placed the thing on the ground. It disappeared before any of them saw it.

"Time will stand still while you learn how to battle. When you return to the world, they'll just think that you're all protégés. "The girl remarked.

Okay end of this chapter. The fun begins next chapter and next review. Don't be afraid to send me possible names for the group, and send me on for the other group. Remember it has Malik, Seto, and Pegasus on it. The good one is Yugi/Yami, Joey, Bakura, Tristan, and Tea. Enjoy! =)
