Kaiba found himself in a forest clearing where a girl and a miniature Blue Eyes White Dragon awaited him.

"Who are you?" Kaiba demanded

"Your partner, who else." she snarled at him. Now tell the idiot in charge to change this outfit before someone gets hurt." She stood up and glared at the sky with fists clenched on her hips. She was wearing very little in the way of covering. A bikini top of forest green leather, a miniskirt of the same leather color, and sandals that laced up her calves, long black hair, stormy gray eyes, and a fairly nice body that was shown in all its glory; she looked like a fairy that had just stepped out of the cards.

"Hmm, nice outfit," Kaiba grinned sarcastically.

"At least I am not the only one in fan service armor." She retorted.

Kaiba looked down to see himself in tight black leather pants, knee high black boots, a black poet's shirt with a long black sleeveless coat. Draped across his hips were two belts, one held a rapier; the other held a holster with a deck of cards. "Humph" he muttered and glared at her.

"Don't glare at me! This wasn't my idea. At least you have your clothes on instead of trying to wander through a forest in a bikini that's an open invitation to perverts and rapist." She matched him glare for glare.

"Now, now, children, don't fight." Pegasus's voice floated down from the sky. "The rules work like this. Kaiba-boy, you are the warrior in this game. The hero, so to speak. Kiri-girl, you are the sorceress. The hero's supporting force. In order to summon monsters, Kaiba-boy has to call them, but Kiri-girl's magic is what brings them to life. Kiri-girl's magic also works the spell cards and trap cards. However, Kaiba-boy has to play the cards for Kiri-girl's magic to work them. Except the defensive spells designed for the sorceress; you will find those in your book of magic." Pegasus explained.

Kaiba pulled the deck from his hip holster and began to look through it. He organized it the way he wanted it and put it back carefully. He pulled the rapier from the other sheath and examined the blade.

"How about some clothes here," Kiri demanded.

"Sorry dear, that outfit was pulled from Kaiba-boy's mind. You will have to take it up with him" Pegasus laughed apologetically. Kiri scowled at everyone equally.

"Some fights you will have to fight with cards and monsters, others you will have to fight with wits and sword. Or, as in Kiri's position, your wits and magic are your weapons. Your book is an outline of spells you can use; the introduction tells you how it works." Pegasus' voice sounded smug. "Very self-explanatory really. Very simple to play." Kaiba sheathed the blade and looked around.

"Your first hint is to head east. Your second is to look for the rising sun of sons." Pegasus's voice faded into the distance. "Good luck to you all."

Kiri stared at Kaiba for a long moment.

"The sooner this is started the sooner it is over and the sooner I get out of this ridiculous outfit. Which way is East." She finally sighed. Kaiba scowled at her and turned and walked away. "Happy to be with you too. Nice to meet you. I am Kiri. Don't mind me, I enjoy talking to myself. After all, why should I expect anything from the idiotic male who came up with this poor excuse for a leather bikini?" She grumbled to Muki, the dragon.

The dragon whistled and grinned at her, "I kind of like the view."

"Watch it, scaly, or you'll be finding yourself a new perch." She glared at the dragon. "What are you, his alter ego?"

"Well, actually, yes I am." The dragon answered smugly.

"Great! Wonderful! Lovely! Not only am I stuck with his perverted highness here, but his pet dragon too. Where's the wicked witch of the west when you need her?" She grumbled and ran to catch up with Kaiba.
