Chapter 2: Portal to Another World and Jack's Gift

SG: The disclaimer is the same so let's go

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After about 15 minutes, I was able to escape from the crowd with my 10,000 dollars and the trophy. I hated large crowds. It was 8:00 when I turned the corner on my bike to another street in our semi quiet town of Rosewood. It was quiet till the new sensation came out. It just appeared out of no where and I've been competing in the tournaments. I've been basing my decks around gaining what your opponent lost. My very first card that ever showed me that was Spirit of the Phoenix. I looked it up and it's the only one in a set of 4 other spirit like monsters. It was feaky. I turned the final corner to arrive at my blue house.

"I'm home..."I said as I opened the door and rolled by bike into the house. I heard laughter down stairs. I rolled my bike to the garage and went over to the basement doors. My mom, dad and my little brother, Luke. They were laughing at the t.v.

"I'm home..."I shouted.

"Oh hi honey, welcome back!"said my mom, without looking away from the t.v.

"I won 10,000 dollars!"I shouted.

"That's great dear...dinners on the table!"yelled my dad, also, not looking away from the t.v. I sighed and rolled my eyes and stormed up the stairs. They were always down there. The only time they are out of there was in the morning and when they came home. I like to watch t.v. But I've been busy with the tournaments to even care anymore. They don't even know how much money I've been winning.

I opened the door to my room, slammed it and let myself flop down on my bed. I was wiped after escaping the crowds and coming home. Around my room was pictures of mystical animals and pictures of myself. There were the trophies of my tournaments along with metals for when I was in soccer. There were only a few. I stopped playing after a freak accident at state tournament. I was about to slip into sleep when my cell phone, which had the song, "Someday", went off. I jumped up and pulled it out of my bag. I looked at the number and it was unknown. I clicked it on and said, "Hello?"

"Did you escape from the giant crowds?"

"Jack?"

"Yep..."

"How did you get my number?"

"Uh...my sister is one of your friends....you know, Malina...."

"Oh...she said she had a brother named, Jack, never thought it was you....how come you bailed before they could give you the 5,000 dollars for coming in 2nd?"

"No reason...don't worry...they'll send it to me....anyway....my sister wants to know if you want to come over for the night.....unless you have a party right now..."

"No...I'm not...give me a moment...."I said as I turned off the phone and started to stuff clothes into my other bag. I unplugged my boombox, grabbed my cds and placed them in there. Malina and Jack don't have boomboxes, they have portable cd players. Which I also packed of course. I grabbed my mini bag that had my deck and the money of my tournament I just won. I ran down the stairs to the basement door.

"I'm....I'm going to Malina's...."I said.

"That's nice sweetie..have fun..."said my mom, not really noticing. I sighed. I got on my bike and left my driveway. It was dark and only a few people were out, mostly the ones returning from the tournament. I was happy it was night, the ones returning home wouldn't recognize me as Fire Princess Sarah, the one who won the recent tournament. Malina is another duelist, but at a lower level than Jack and I. I heard of her brother Jack, but I never seen him, till now that I find out he's Black Zombie Jack.

I arrive at the midnight blue house of my twin friends Malina and Jack Ravenblower. Malina and Jack were waiting at their garage, which was open.

"Hey there, Sarah..."said Malina as I rolled in.

"Hey, why didn't you tell me he was your brother?"I asked as I took off my helmet.

"He's usually is gone...off on those tournaments like you are....still can't believe you beat my brother.

"Yeah, me too..."I said.

"Heh...it was just luck..."said Jack.

"Are you sure?"I asked, "We could go at it again...."

"Not to night you two aren't! Tonight's for partying!"said Malina as she dragged me into her house.

"Our parents said it was okay before they left for their own party..."said Malina as we entered the dark purple living room.

"I brought my boombox..."

"SWEET!!"said Malina as she snatched it and started to set it up.

"Hey, Malina...."said Jack as he entered the living room.

"Yeah?"

"You mind if I talk to Sarah alone in the kitchen?"

"Yeah!"said Malina, still figuring out the buttons. Jack dragged me into the kitchen.

"What is it?"I asked.

"I'm telling you I'm resigning my deck and my title..."

"WHAT! You are going to give up your zombie deck and the name, Black Zombie Jack!"I said out loud.

"Yeah, but I'm still going to play....the only reason why I play zombies is because my parents think it's cool...and I don't....I hate the name, Black Zombie Jack.....I mean, you are lucky you got the name, Fire Princess Sarah..."

"Yeah...so...what are you going to do?"

"I'm changing my style...you remember the 2 cards you were surprised at the the tournament?"

"You mean the Luster Dragon and the Spirit of the Dragon cards?"

"Yep...I decided to do a dragon deck...."

"Really?"

"Yeah.....Spirit of the Dragon was my very first card, and also, I think dragons are way better than zombies...."

"Dragon Master Jack....."I said.

"Huh?"

"That should be your new title, Dragon Master Jack...."

"After the Dragon Master Knight, the fusion of the 3 Blue-eyes White Dragons and Black Luster Soldier?"he asked.

"Yeah....."

"That is true, I do have that card and it's parts..."

"Really?"I asked.

"Yeah....lucky you said about that, I forgot about that fusion....and I already have my new one made...."

"Well that's cool..."I said.

"Spite that you run a phoenix/pryo deck, I do have this for you to use, it's very good..."he said as he held it out, with the picture face down. I took it from him and flipped it up. "Wow...how in the heck did you find this?"

"The pack that my parents got me that had the Black Zombie* in it...."

"I can't believe you had Phoenix's Shine* all along....thank you...."I said.

"Heh....what I was suppose to do with it.....I used to run a Zombie deck and now I run a Dragon one....to my decks, it's pointless, to yours, it rocks...."

"HEY YOU TWO! I better not catch you two making out in there!"shouted Malina.

"Yeah right!"said Jack as he ran out. I smiled and followed him also.

All night, we were dancing as a few more of my friends arrived to celebrate my victory and Jack coming in 2nd. My friends run other types of decks. Malina ran a faerie deck, Jack and his new Dragon one, Amy with Spellcasters, Andrew with an all Dark one, Katrina with an all light one and our final friend, Ray with a plant deck. We were watching the tape of the duel between Jack and I and we all agreed, the annoucer guy was very annoying.

My friends are cool, they were there when I had my freak accident, unlike my parents....Jack on the other hand at that time was stuck in school overnight. All their parents are really nice to me like I was their own.

"Hey you guys! It's time to give the stuff to Sarah and Jack!"said Katrina as she jumped up and ran over to one part of the house. She came back with bags and packages galore!

"Wha! You guys didn't have to!"I said with my eyes widen. Jack and I got 5 gifts.

"Come on, Sarah! Don't spoil it! You two guys are going to the regional! It would be so cool if you two guys were the World Champions!"said Ray, getting into my face.

"Okay okay..."I said as I started to open. Jack gotten a pendent with the Japanese symbol for Dark from Andrew, 2 new cds from Amy and Katrina, a DVD from Ray and a gift certificate to one of his favorite stores from his sister. I gotten a pendent as well, but with the Japanese symbol for Fire from Andrew. Amy got me a new cd while Katrina got me new pair of earrings. Ray gave me a movie as well and Malina gave me a music snowglobe.

"Thanks..."I said as Jack nodded his head like he was saying it too.

"NOW! LET'S FINISH THIS CRAZY PARTY!!!!"yelled Amy as she drank another can of soda.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Later that Night

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I just stared up at the ceiling. Everyone was tried after the partying. My head phones were off my ears as "Someday" was playing. I was very tired as well. They let me have the couch as Malina and Jack had their own rooms and the others had the floor down in the living room. My eyes slowy closed as I drifted to sleep.

~~~~~~~~~

Sarah's Dream

~~~~~~~~~

I was running through the woods. "Get her!"voices were behind me. I turned around to see people in capes with their hoods up chasing me. "Uh!"I said as I kept on running, with my one leg hurting because of my accident. Something was on my back as I ran, I looked and it was a golden bow.

"You have to hurry...."said a voice from afar.

"Huh?"I said.

"Sarah..."said the 1st voice.

"Sarah...."said another as a person, a guy with long hair was standing infront of my path that lead out of the woods.

~~~~~~~~~

End of Dream

~~~~~~~~~

"SARAH!"yelled Amy as I shot opened my eyes. It was morning and everyone was staring at me. "Uh..."I started to say.

"You know, you just kicked all of us..."said Katrina, with a mad expression on her face.

"I did? Oh...I'm sorry....running dream...that's all...."I said as I sat up.

"Yeah right, 2 bucks says she was being a Power Ranger...."said Jack. I threw a pillow at Jack for the comment as some of the others started to laugh.

~~~~~~~~~

Afternoon

~~~~~~~~~

The party was over and I had to go home, inspite that no one there really cares. I took a short cut that I loved, that went through the woods. As I was riding, I hit something that caused me to crash. "CRAP!"I said as I sat up. My right leg, the one that was in the freak accident was caught in the bike. I lifted it up and pulled it out. "Stupid tree root..."I said as I went over to kick the root, only to find not a tree root, but a golden bow.

"Whoa...talk about a dream coming to life...."I said, recalling the part of the dream where I had the bow on my back. I still had my bags on me as I touched it. It was cold and real. I picked it up and looked at it.

"Talk about freaky....."I said as I looked around it. All of a sudden a voice, which sounded like a little girl, in my head said, "OPEN THE GATE TO MY WORLD! LEAD ME BACK TO MY BROTHER!" Soon, storm clouds came over head. I started to freak out. The winds started to pick up as a hole in the sky appeared to another. "HOLY CRAP!!!!"I screamed as I blacked out because of some force of power.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Otherside

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'Dizzy...dizzy...I'm so dizzy....'

"Mokuba....are you okay?"said a voice.

"Yeah, Seto....but who is she?"said a younger voice. Both voices were guys. 'Wha? Why am I wet?'

"Call an ambulance....."said the 1st voice.

"Yes, Mr. Kaiba..."a new voice came in my hearing. 'What happened to me?'
