Duel Quest: Journey Through The Portal
GN: Meow! Sorry to have kept you waiting. And to those of you who have asked whether or not Josie will be a Mary Sue, the answer will be NO! Josie is based on my friend whose name is with-held. Josie will be introduced in a later chappie! Meow! Right now we're going to meet her nerdy brother, a boy named Keith. MEOW!!
Chapter One: Mortal Peril
Keith liked playing card games. NO! Not those easy games like Go Fish and Old Maid. He liked challenging games with monsters and magic and opportunities to crush his opponents with an unconquerable force!
Keith played Yu-Gi-Oh.
He had won many a shiny trophy to place in his cabinet that showed how deeply he craved the game. He was not exactly very good looking, but hey! Nerds like him weren't very often, now were they?
Keith had curly red hair and freckles on his face. In fact, they covered most of his body. He was also very tall and thin. He didn't wear glasses, like the nerd of common stereotypes, but he did wear contact lenses. He always wore the same clothes. Not the same pair of pants every day, you fool! He wore the same general outfit all the time. He wore a baseball jersey and blue jeans with holes in them. He claimed the holes were part of his "look" but I beg to differ.
Keith loved rock climbing--but not as much as his card games. Besides, he had to learn or else he would never survive his journeys to the Portal.
"Portal? What Portal" you may ask me. Well, the portal I am speaking of is the very reason why you are reading about Keith instead of Josie. DUH!
We find our hero's brother climbing an outcropping in the mountains...
"Will you stop giving them commentary and Narrate already!?!?"
Sorry, Keith. I'll shut up and narrate now.
"GOOD!"
Keith was climbing up the sheer rock face toward the summit of Mount Wallahwallah, a secret location he had found a few years ago. That was how he met Yugi and his friends. It seemed like it was just yesterday that he fell through the portals and learned the art of Yu-Gi-Oh. But let's not get into that just yet.
Keith reached the summit and stared around him. The scenery from the mountain was gorgeous. There were forest trees all around him and there was silence. Only silence.
There was something very eerie about this silence.
But Keith just ignored that for now. He found the green rock and lifted it. Underneath this green rock was a button. Yeah, I know what you're thinking, "How can there be a button in the ground?" Well, this is MY story so deal with it!!!
"Hey GN! Get back to the story will ya!?"
Yeah, sure! Bore them to death with my boring blah, blah, blah talk. Just like the other narrators do. Humph! See if I care.
"GN!!!"
Okay, fine.
Keith pressed the button that was in the ground and silvery light shone in his face. It was the illumination of the portal. A window opened in front of him--or at least it looked like one. He stuck his head through and saw--
"NOTHING!?" shouted Keith. "Where is everybody??? Hello?"
Keith looked around the dark store. There was no one to be seen. Not Yugi or Joey or Tea or anybody! They were gone. He stepped through the portal and took a closer look.
"Hello?" he called into the abyss.
No answer came.
There was a crunch as he took another step. He looked down and saw broken glass. In fact, it was all over the store! There had been a break-in! He knew he had to get help, but if he came out of the store he would look like a suspect.
So he did the only thing he could think of: He took out his cellular phone and dialed Yugi's number. But when the phone just kept ringing with no answer, Keith began to worry.
Suddenly there was a crash! Then there was laughter... malicious laughter.
"Muahahaha!" came a woman's evil sounding voice. "I can see you..."
Keith was horror struck. He tried to run, but his feet wouldn't move! It was like they were glued to the floor!
"Foolish mortal... You cannot escape my web. I will kill you and drink your blood before you are able to move again." said the voice.
"Who are you? And what have you done to my friends?" Keith shouted.
"I took their souls..." said the voice, "And yours is next! Hahahahaha!"
"Show yourself!" shouted Keith.
"Fine then, I shall." said the voice. There was a rumble and the ground shook as a HUGE arachnid appeared. She had a large red eye on her belly like a black widow's hourglass. But they eye looked like the one on all of the millennium items. "I am Arachneye! I will now take your soul. Just like the others! Hahahahaha!" She started to make a slurping noise like the sound when you slurp soda through a straw.
Keith had to act fast or his soul would be taken away! He crouched in his place. As Arachneye slurped harder, his feet came loose. He made a break for the portal door!
Arachneye wasn't finished with Keith just yet! She grabbed him in her pinchers and slammed him against the wall. His mind was jarred from the impact and he couldn't see for a moment.
When he wasn't blind anymore, he noticed that Arachneye had stopped trying to slurp him up for some reason. Then he saw that he was wrapped in her web!
To Be Continued...
GN: MEOW!! How'd ya like that? Suspending huh? More will come soon! But for now, I'll just play with my Catnip Ball some more... Meow!
