Hi everyone. Welcome to my new story. Yey! Lmao.

Starring: Sammi, Sam, Doug, Jack, Mitch and the Yu-Gi-Oh characters.

Summary: The world of Yu-Gi-Oh Online is introduced through a kids magazine called K-Zone. It's a demo being tested on young children before they release it and make people pay to play. But it's still in testing stages and problems have arisen.

Disclaimer: Unfortunately no one thought that Yu-Gi-Oh was a good present, nor was it a good idea to re-install it on my computer because I'm not allowed to have internet since I got that virus. Hehehe. Virus. Please? Yu-Gi-Oh?

Chapter Title: Discover and depart

Reviews: Sami Ryou's Hikari – that's where I got the idea from. Hehehe. Thanks for the compliments and I'm sorry if it sounds like your characters – it's just that I know these people so I've made them as close as possible to who they are. This chapter is deticated to you to say sorry for not knowing your review to comment last time.

yugirules – thankyou for your review. They all mean heaps to me

BookDragon – sorry for the wait on the update. First writers block, then a trojan horse and I've been sick. I hope you like this chapter

Also at the moment I am asking all viewers if they have a specific character they would like for a bad guy/girl. You may make up your own characters but in doing so you are giving me permission to use them in other stories as long as I say they are yours. Thankyou very much. Also I won't say who it is even when I figure it out. I don't want everyone knowing. Thanks.


'It worked, it worked,' squealed an excited young boy.

'Ugh,' Sam groaned, rubbing his head. 'What's going on?'

'You've been transported by the computers here to help us,' said the same child. 'My name is – '

'Mokuba Kaiba. I know.'

'Sam,' yelled Mitch, running 100 miles per hour. 'Sam, come on! Hurry up lazy head.'

'What's going on,' said Sam, finally getting a good look at his little brother. He looked like an anime character! His blonde hair was less messy than usual, and his clothes –different to usual – looked square and his brown eyes in particular looked so weird – they were shaped like . . . like . . .

'I'm an cartoon character,' Mitch continued screaming around the house. It was clear to everyone at this point that Mokuba and Mitch would get along fine – they were both young boys with too much sugar intake and too little work to do.

'Sam,' came another familiar voice. 'Doug, Mitch, Jack? Where are you?'

'Mitch and I are in here,' he replied. 'I dunno where the others are.'

Walking in as casually as possible Sammi blushed as Sam looked her up and down. Her clothes were also different. She had black jeans and a brown-stripped shirt that pulled up at the back. Her hair, honey and streaked light purple, were tied up which was something that didn't happen often. Sam didn't know it but Sammi was wearing this the day that she registered online, as Mitch had been wearing his current ensemble the day he had first watched a match. He was coming home from church.

'I look weird, don't I?' she said, her cheeks turning a nice shade of rose.

'Who are you?' Mokuba asked, bringing Doug, Jack and the rest of the gang they had seen on the computer screen plus Serenity and Kaiba.

'I'm Phoenix,' Sammi introduced. 'This,' she said pointing to Sam, 'is . . . um . . . Arima,' thinking of her bishie from Kare Kano. 'And they're his brothers.' She pointed to Jack and Mitch. 'He's my brother,' she said, holding Doug tight.

'Sorry,' Joey apologized, handing Tea 1000 yen. 'We – I mean I thought you were a guy.'

'I'm sorry to disappoint. I'm good for a girl eh?'

'Eh?'

'What?'

'I dunno.'

'This is getting us nowhere fast,' Doug interrupted the argument of stupidity. 'What are we here to do?'

'We don't know exactly,' Yugi sighed. 'We don't know how to defeat all the Egyptian Gods. One kid even had the Seal of Oreichalkos. Had,' everyone bowed. 'How do we do this? I've seen you do it!'

'I've seen you defeat the Gods before. And Oreichalkos. You just have to remember.'

'Those days are behind me. Only Joey and Kaiba still duel, I just run Gramps old game shop.'

'But you're the world champion!' Mitch exclaimed. 'You can't just quit.'

'I didn't quit. I got my deck stolen. I don't want to build another one. Atem helped me . . . ' Yugi trailed off.

'Great,' Jack paced. 'We have to get rid of all the Egyptian Gods and Oreichalkos cards, find Yugi's deck, help him get over Atemu's death and not eat! How are we supposed to do that?'

'Oh, you can eat,' Serenity informed him, holding out the cookies. 'Just people bring them in with them. The food goes wild. One time the pizza chased a kid.'

'PIZZA?' Sammi practically screamed.

'I know,' Joey sobbed. 'Pizza, the giver of life, attacking a kid. It's a tragedy.'

'IT ATTACKS PEOPLE!'

'Duh Phoenix.'

'My name ain't . . . wait, don't worry,' Sammi said, still unsure about being called Phoenix by anyone besides her besties Emma and Jess back home. 'It's just that I saw that on my screen. A kid, he looked about Mitch's age, being chased by pizza. They ran across the bottom of my screen.'

'What happened when they'd gotten to the other side of the screen?' Tristan asked.

'I . . . I kinda turned the computer off thinking that someone had hacked into my computer.'

Everyone sighed.

'Both of them disappeared.'

'I have an idea,' Doug thought aloud. 'Maybe it's the computer connections back home that's doing this. If we can find someone else who's gotten here maybe they have some similar software to ours.'

'Great idea,' said Seto Kaiba, his very appearance causing Sammi to squeeze Sam's hand until it went purple. 'If we didn't already try it. What's this game called and how did you get it?'

'Do you promise not to be mad?' Mitch asked in a sing-song voice.

'Why would he be mad?' Joey asked.

'It's called Yu-Gi-Oh Online,' Sammi explained. 'Mitch doesn't know much Japanese to know it means King of Games Online. It's named after the anime and manga.'

'Not you too,' Tea said, aspirated. 'We're not on TV! We've never –'

'You are!' Jack squealed. 'Don't worry, I have an idea.'

Everyone, Sam and Doug in particular, were worried when Jack said he had an idea. The only thing to expect was a picture of a dog and an axe. Unfortunately this could have come from any of the boys and been called an idea.

Sammi was pleasantly surprised when she saw the sheet Jack came back with. Not showing it to anyone, she quickly read it.

Phoenix + Kaiba go virtual and check online.

Doug + Tea organize surprise party for Yugi.

Sam Arima + Joey go around town.

Mitch + Mokuba go home and check things there

Yugi make decks for everyone

Serenity continue to make yummy food

Me eat

'JACK!' Sammi shouted. 'You're doing some work too!'

She quickly wrote her own list.

Me + Kaiba go online

Doug + Tea party

Arima + Joey + Tristan go around town

Mitch + Mokuba go home

Yugi + Duke make decks

Serenity + Jack get other things prepared here, keep contact between everyone

'How come I get the boring job?' Jack asked.

'Because no one can trust you doing anything and we don't want Duke and Tristan competing for her all day.

'So it's 10 o'clock. If we can all split up and be back here for dinner at, say 7?'

'Sounds good'

'Let's do it!'

'Ok,' Sammi exclaimed. 'Let's go.'

So the group split up, hoping that their friends would stay safe until they next met.
