Yugi and Joey had accepted a duel between two of Salazar's eliminators, one using only magic and trap cards, another bringing out powerful monsters.

"Don't give up!" Mai shouted. "You guys can wipe the floor with these fashion-challenged freaks!"

Yugi and Joey nodded to Mai, and didn't care about their slight setback.

Yugi's turn-

Yugi drew his card and said, "I play Mystical Space Typhoon, destroying Mask of Restrict," it was so, a powerful gust of wind blew away the horned mask and it was gone. "That's not all, I'll sacrifice Beta the Magnet Warrior to bring out the Summoned Skull (2500/1200)!" As the Magnet Warrior vanished, so did the Nightmare Wheel and a skeleton demon replaced Beta and it let out a roar. "Now Summoned Skull, attack Magi's life points directly, Lightning Strike!" As Summoned Skull gathered electricity, it fired a blast directly at Magi, but Magi flipped his face down card.

"I activate Enchanted Javelin, which will heal me from one of your attacking monsters and I gain life points equal to one of my opponent's attacking monsters, so your attack is cancelled out." Magi said as the Javelin appeared, glowed white and turned into pure energy going within the blue robed duelist.

"But I'll also attack with my Dark Magician Girl, attack!" Yugi said and his female spellcaster fired a purple blast directly at Magi...

"Block it Dark Elf!" Titan shouted and his elf blocked the blast by creating a black arrow out of her energy and shot it at Dark Magician Girl. Both the female duel monsters were hit their attacks, and they were both destroyed.

Magi nodded to Titan approvingly and vice versa.

"Then I end my turn," Yugi said.

Titan's turn-

Titan drew his card and had a twisted grin on his face, "I play Gagagigo (1850/1000) and I'll also play Mask of Brutality on him making his attack and defense rise to 2850/2000," as the reptilian warrior appeared, a mask with a fanged smile and claws covering the eyes appeared on him. "Now Gagagigo, attack Panther Warrior, with Claws of Brutality!" The masked monster charged at Joey's cat warrior and slashed a lethal slash across his chest, making it leave the field. "And I'll end my turn."

Joey: 5650

Joey's turn-

Joey drew his card and smirked, "I play Monster Reborn, reviving my Panther Warrior and I'll sacrifice him to bring out Luster Dragon (2400/1400) and I'll lay one card face down, ending my turn." Joey's emerald green dragon appeared and behind it was a face down card and behind that was Joey's smug look.

Magi's turn-

Magi drew his card and said, "I play another Wave-Motion Cannon, one card face down, and I'll flip my face down card, another Just Desserts on you, Joey and you have five monsters out, that dragon and your four scapegoats so you lose 2500 life points." As the same cannon reappeared, the face down card flipped face up and a see-through hand gripped Joey and he lost almost half of the life points he had.

Joey: 3150

'They must be trying to take Joey out first, then go for me,' Yugi thought. 'I can't let him down, I have to help him. But with Titan's Gagagigo out, he's stronger than my Summoned Skull and can defend both of their life points. Wait, this is like Lumis and Umbra, When Kaiba and I dueled them, Kaiba got them to turn against each other, and maybe Joey and I can do that too.'

Yugi's turn-

Yugi drew his card and said, "I play Card Destruction, making us all each draw a new hand." They all did so and there were murmurs among the other three duelists. "And now, I play one card face down in defense mode, ending my turn."

Titan's turn-

Titan drew his card and laughed, "First, I lose 1000 life points for having Mask of Brutality still out and I play The Fiend Megacyber (2200/1200), and because you have more than two monsters than me, he requires no sacrifices. Now, Gagagigo, attack Summoned Skull, wipe it out, Claws of Brutality!" As the masked reptile charged at Yugi's monster, Joey flipped his face down card.

"Activate Skull Dice!" Joey said as an imp appeared holding a red die and let it roll on the ground and it landed on a six. "Yes, that means your masked lizard loses 600 Attack and Defense points, making its attack only 2250, weaker than Yuge's Summoned Skull."

It was true, as Gagagigo was about to strike Summoned Skull, the skeleton demon countered fired a blast of electricity, frying the monster to a crisp.

Magi: 8000

Yugi: 6500

Titan: 6750

Joey: 3150

"Nice work Joey," Yugi said to him.

"Heh, thanks Yuge," Joey said modestly.

Titan growled and said, "Then I'll have Megacyber attack one of your Scapegoats." The large warrior hurled its massive fist crushed one of the little goats. "And I'll end my turn."

Joey's turn-

"I play one card face down face down and I'll have Luster Dragon attack your Megacyber, Emerald Blaze!" Joey said as his green dragon unleashed a sea of green flames to the monster, but before it could hit, it was all sucked into a dimensional-like object.

"What happened?" Joey said.

"I activated my trap card, Negate Attack stopping your monster from attacking and ending your battle phase," Magi said.

"Then I'll end my turn," Joey groaned.

Magi's turn-

Magi drew his card and he unleashed a smirk, "I play Raigeki, destroying all of Joey's monsters." Thunderclouds formed from above Joey's part of the arena and lightning struck down all of his monsters, destroying them all. "And I'll end my turn."

'Hey,' Joey thought. 'Magi's all out of cards, none in his hands or on the field, he must be expectin' Titan to block for him...'

Yugi's turn-

'It's time to see how loyal these two are to each other,' Yugi thought as he drew his card, looked at his opponent's field, seeing only The Fiend Megacyber out and knew what to do, "I'll sacrifice my face down monster to bring out the Dark Magician (2500/2100) and I'll have both of my monsters to attack Magi's life points directly!" As Dark Magician and Summoned Skull fired their attacks, Magi looked over to Titan but what he expected, didn't happen, he got hit with both of the blasts and lost 5000 life points.

Magi: 3000

"What the Hell was that?!" Magi shouted to Titan.

"You're still alive aren't you?" Titan asked.

"Barely!" he shouted back.

"Hey I got a strategy going here, if Megacyber was destroyed, it wouldn't work."

"Right, like an idiot like you could make an actual strategy."

"Shut up and watch my strategy."

Titan's turn-

Titan drew his card and said, "I play Monster Reborn reviving my Grand Tiki Elder (1500/800) that you used Card Destruction on, Yugi. And I'll sacrifice both my monsters to bring out Masked Beast Des Guardius (3300/2500). And now Des Guardius, attack Joey's life points, wipe him out of the duel!" As the monster went to strike Joey down, Yugi intervened.

"Block it, Summoned Skull!" Yugi shouted and his monster took the attack and was ripped to the shreds.

Yugi: 5700

"Thanks Yuge," Joey said, "You saved my butt right there."

Yugi smiled at Joey then turned his attention back to the two eliminators.

"That will end my turn," Yugi said.

Joey's turn-

Joey didn't have anything in his hand to help him now, he needed a good card to draw. It succeeded. "OH YEEEEAAAHHH!! I play Flame Swordsman (1800/1600) in attack mode and that's not all, I play Polymerization, fusing my Flame Swordsman with Yugi's Dark Magician!"

"Good move Joey!" Yugi said.

"And together they make, the Dark Flare Knight (2200/800)!" Yugi and Joey said in unison.

"That'll end my turn," Joey said.

Magi's turn-

'They have the Dark Flare Knight out,' Magi thought. 'They'll attack me and I'll be defenseless unless I draw something good.'

Magi drew his card and laughed, "I play Snatch Steal, and I'll take control of Des Guardius!"

"Magi you rat!" shouted Titan.

"It says I can take control of an 'opponent's' monster, and now our alliance is over! My opponent," Magi said.

Titan was more pissed than ever and he threw his card over to Magi and Magi placed it on the field in attack mode.

"And now, I'll attack your life points directly, Titan!" Magi said.

Yugi and Joey were both surprised to see Magi attacking his partner and Des Guardius ripped its claws on Titan.

"And I'll end my turn playing one card face down," Magi said laughing in sure of his victory.

Titan: 3450

Yugi's turn-

"Magi, that's lowest thing to do," Joey said. "Attacking your teammate!"

"Weren't you listening?" Magi asked. "This guy's no longer my teammate, he's my opponent like you two."

"Well you're about to get what's coming to you," Yugi said, drawing his card. "I play Heavy Storm, removing everyone's magic and trap cards on the field." As a huge wind blew, all the cards on the field were removed and Des Guardius was now back on Titan's side of the field.

"And I'll end my turn." Yugi said.

Titan's turn-

Titan drew his card and said, "I first play Tremendous Fire, dealing 1000 damage to you Magi and 500 to me and I'll have Des Guardius attack you directly. Des Guardius wipe that rat off the field." The Masked Beast ripped its claws through Magi and his life points were reduced to zero.

Titan: 2450

Magi: 0

"And I'll end my turn playing Megamorph, doubling Des Guardius' attack to 6600, the next turn will be the last." Titan said as his monster grew double in its size and was now enormous.

Joey's turn-

Joey and Yugi looked at each other and nodded, "I first play Giant Trunade sending your Megamorph back to your hand and I'll have Dark Flare Knight attack Des Guardius, go!" As the giant sized Masked Beast shrunk, Yugi and Joey's Knight attacked the monster and fell in battle. But it didn't die in vain, when the Dark Flare Knight fell, a scythe-wielding knight in green armor replaced him.

"When Dark Flare Knight dies, the Mirage Knight replaces him," Joey said. "Yuge you do the honors."

Yugi's turn-

Yugi didn't draw his card, he just said, "Attack Mirage Knight, Mirage Scythe Slash!" The two monsters clashed, but because of Mirage Knight's ability, he'd win no matter what. "From Mirage Knight's effect, his attack is raised by your monster's original attack so his attack goes up to 6100." The green armored knight beheaded Des Guardius and depleted all of Titan's remaining life points.

Magi: 0

Yugi: 5700

Titan: 0

Joey: 3150

Titan gave Joey seven star chips, and Magi reluctantly gave Yugi six.

Both the eliminators knew they'd be in trouble so as soon as they gave their star chips to Yugi and Joey, they quickly left.

~Salazar's Castle, 2:17 PM~

Salazar knew about Magi and Titan's defeat but he was too busy to deal with them. Weevil's empty body was sitting in a chair lifelessly and around his neck hung a golden ring with several pointers hanging from the ring. Then, he grabbed the Millennium Puzzle and threw it hard to the ground shattering it to pieces. Among the pieces, he grabbed one that seemed to stand out to him. He placed the piece right on the eye of the golden ring and suddenly, the rings pointers on the ring moved around madly then, a blinding light came from the ring. Then, Weevil's body awoke.

Salazar dropped the piece of the puzzle among the others and said, "Welcome Spirit of the Millennium Ring."

"What?" said a voice that sounded nowhere near to Weevil's shrill voice, it was deep and had a rusty sound to it. "How am I here?"

"I brought you here," Salazar said.

"From where?" the Spirit asked.

"Your containment in the puzzle," Salazar said.

"The Puzzle," Weevil's body looked down and saw pieces of the Millennium Puzzle and the voice said. "Ah yes that hell of a containment. Two years I have been in there."

"I have a proposition for you," Salazar said.

"And what would that be?" the spirit asked.

"In the Shadow Realm, I have found your original host's body."

"Have you?"

"Indeed. However, your spirit there has died out and all that is left is the body and the soul of it as well."

"So Bakura's tougher than I thought."

"Well I'm sure that the vessel you're currently in won't do at all, but I shall give you body, but at a price."

"And that would be?"

"The Millennium Eye, you took it from Pegasus and I know you still have it, give me the eye and you'll get your body. And don't try to pull anything, you only put a small portion of yourself into that puzzle piece and it will be a while until your powers are as good as they were before."

"I might have the Millennium Eye, but I need to get to the Shadow Realm, and my powers aren't yet strong enough to get there myself."

"I figured as much," Salazar said pulling out the Millennium Rod.

The body of Weevil's body opened wide at the sight of that and the Spirit of the Ring remembered when Yami Marik used the Egyptian God Card, Ra and it unleashed its ocean of golden flames which sealed him into eternal darkness, until now.

"I'll send you to the Shadow Realm and then you can find your old vessel," Salazar said.

"Right," the Spirit said and the body of Weevil stood up.

Then Salazar aimed the Millennium Rod at the body of Weevil and a blinding light was unleashed and when the light faded, Weevil's body was nowhere to be found.

The Spirit of the Ring had arrived to a place of eternal darkness and a purple fog could be seen low to the ground.

"Well it's not like I haven't been here before," the Spirit of the Ring said to himself. "Now to find Bakura." The body of Weevil then walked off deeper into darkness looking for his lighter half...

NOTE: I know several rules were broken like Flame Swordsman, but in the anime, it was always played like a non-fusion and I think it should've been a normal monster as well it's pretty pointless for it to be a Fusion monster.

Also in the Team Duel, I think some rules can be surpassed like you can even attack your partner's life points (If you don't like that, let's just say Salazar forgot to add the rule not to attack your partner).
