Chapter 17: Setting up the stage
Reku is running down a long dark hallway. Bathed in light from candles burning with blue flames. Glancing back over his shoulder, he sees two blood red eyes down in the darkness. A low rumbling came from down at the end of hall were the eyes were.
Suddenly Reku's feet hit something and fell to the ground. He looked back to see what he tripped over. His eyes widened in horror, there on the ground were motionless body's of Ronin and Akina lying face down. Crawling over to the body's Reku shook both of them trying to wake them up. He rolled Ronin over to see his eyes wide open but empty. No life what so ever, his face locked in a pose of fear.
Jerking his head to see the blood red eyes right next to him. Next came cold, evil laughter. It echoed down the corridor. A shadowy claw reached out and grabbed up both Ronin and Akina, It pulled them back into the darkness out of Reku's sight.
Reku scrambled to his feet and began running again. Finally he came to a corner. Rounding it he came face to face with a robed man. Hitting him, Reku fell backwards onto his butt. He looked up to see the man had two blood red eyes also. In the shadows next to him, Reku could make out a figure. The figure had neat blue hair and a silver shirt with a black vest on. The rest of his features were covered in shadows.
A low voice of a women then echoed down the hall. The images around Reku disappeared into a completely black room. The voice repeated what it had said:
"Evil incarnated into a series of weapons wielded by the chosen one. As long as he holds the complete sword, he is your true enemy. Believe in yourself, your friends, and the weapons at your disposal."
Shooting up out of his bed, Reku found himself right in the middle of his room.
"It was all just a dream". A cold shiver ran up his spine. Nothing had ever felt that real. He felt as if it was actually happening. Glancing at his digital clock the red number flowed into his brain, 4:00 am.
Elsewhere in the world at the same time. Yukio and the robed man walked into a chamber. Sitting at a chair in the middle of the room was another cloaked figure. He stood up and pulled his hood back. The man's short dark red hair came into view. The man had dark blue eyes. Finally after a long silence Yukio spoke.
"So, who are you?"
"Me?" The man stepped forward. "I am the one who realizes you destiny. I have abandoned my name a long time ago. Call me Chaos."
"Chaos?"
"Yep" He pulled a device out from behind his back and tossed it to Yukio. It was a silver and dark blue duel disk model. "Put it on".
Yukio slipped it around his wrist. It activated and snapped into place. It was became into a straighter field zone and more slicker wrist mechanics.
"Wow!"
"Latest model. Team Chaos needs the best".
"Team Chaos, Wait," Finally recognizing the voice. "You made me through my duel".
"Yep, I had already recruited you for my team".
"How do you know I would join you?"
"It's...you destiny." The man looked deep into Yukio's eyes. Suddenly Yukio fell to his knees weak "And deep inside you know it too".
Yukio stood back up and looked at Chaos. "Yes, I feel as if I belong here".
"You do, now take this". Chaos hand Yukio a small medallion. One side of it, the eye of Ra was imprinted. It started glowing brightly, bathing the room in it's glow.
Reku knocked on a door marked Mr. Yoshiharu. The sun was shining brightly now. It was close to ten in the morning. Mr. Yoshiharu's voice came from the inside telling him to come in. Opening the door he saw that Ronin, Akina, and Sachiko were already there.
"So Team Zero has been formed." Mr. Yoshiharu said sitting at his desk.
"Yep and we are going all the way." Ronin clenched his fist together.
"Good, now let me explain the world tournament to you".
"Yes please". Reku said sitting down.
"Okay, each team has three people and there are a total of 32 teams from around the world. Teams are selected at random and then plays matches set up by the captions of the teams. The winners advance on and when two teams are left they do a tradition of all three duelist duel each other."
"At the same time?" Akina asked.
"No, no". Yoshiharu shook his head. "The life points are totaled up to 12000. One player plays at a time and when a player loses more then 4000 life points, they rotate to the next person. It is a real hectic duel because everyone must use their own deck but rely on each others deck to win."
"Ooohhh". A reply from everyone in the room.
"Okay enough talking, go home and pack. Meet tomorrow at the airport. Then we are off to the world tournament. It is always wise to head to the card shop and boost up your deck, OH, that reminds me!" He reached under his desk and came back with a box. Opening the top a glass container inside showed off extremely rare cards. "For being on the team you each get to choose one card from the box".
Looking at the cards for a while Akina, Reku, and Ronin chose one a piece.
"I got the rare Fairy in the Crystal monster card (2000/1300)!" Akina held the card up. A little fairy was inside a large clear crystal crying.
"Wow! I got the A Legendary Ocean magic card." Ronin showed it to his friends.
"Cool, I got the Mech Dragon Blaster (2500/2000)." A picture of a large dragon covered in spots with machinery.
"Good, now go and prepare for the fight". Mr. Yoshiharu motioned them out.
Later that day Ronin walked into the towns card shop only to find Reku their.
"Hey dude what's up?"
"Looking at what I can't afford." Reku shot a thumbs up to Ronin.
"What do you say. Let's work on our decks together."
The two boys sat in the card shop all afternoon putting together stronger and stronger decks. True, they didn't have much to work with but the decks were improving.
Finally the sun set. Night had fallen over the city. Reku sat on his bed starring at the one suit case sitting on the floor. Smiling to himself he hopped deep inside that he had no more dreams like the last one.
Ronin had already packed it in for the night. Snoring loudly.
Akina was talking to Sachiko on the phone. They both were already packed. They were very excited that they were going to be in the world tournament.
Night was peaceful all over the city.
And as the sun rose the next morning so did four very eager kids. By 9 am they were at the airport talking and laughing. Mr. Yoshiharu showed up and they boarded their plane to the world championship tournament.

Nanashi Minimino: Yes I hate gravity bind duelist, hate with a passion. It is so Ironic that I actually have a Gravity Bind deck built. But Aknia really isn't a Gravity Bind duelist she really uses lower leveled monsters.
