(L-space) I don't own any of the characters of yugioh, and I'm not sure what ages the cast are normally, so you'll have to bear with me. And I don't know what happened to the god cards, so I've given Ra to joey, obelisk to kaiba, and Yugi holds slifer the sky dragon.

I'm sorry, that for about 10 minutes this was replaced by reviews I got for something else, there was an update problem.

(Kaibacorp headquarters)

Yugi Moto and Joey Wheeler walked through the doors to Seto Kaiba's office in the head branch of his business; Kaibacorp.

Yugi focused on the chair behind the desk that had been turned to face the window;

"Kaiba, I know you're there, why have you called us here?"

He was taller than normal, and had a harshness of voice that was not usual in the short teenage boy.

A voice came out from behind the chair;

"Yugi, I knew you'd come."

Joey Wheeler cut in with his American drawl;

"Kaiba, can the special effects, just tell us face to face why we you called us here!!!"

A long-suffering sigh came from behind the chair. Then it turned to face the 2 duellists, to reveal Seto Kaiba sitting in it, tall for his age, and sole owner of the Kaibacorp Company, his eyes were strained from lack of sleep.

"I did not invite YOU here at all, Wheeler, I invited Yugi, but I should have expected his little puppy dog as well, but I suppose he might want to know this as well, I am sponsoring a world wide tournament, in which we 3 are to compete. Since Kaibacorp are only sponsoring it, I have no say in who gets invited, but wheeler gets a legitimate entry for once."

"Huh."

"So, Kaiba, why call us here, why not surprise us with the knowledge, when it gets announced."

"Because, Yugi, I need a guinea pig to test out my new duel disks, you see, I was impressed with the shadow realm that Marik created with this rod,"

At this he pulled the millennium rod out of a secret compartment of his desk, the same rod that his ancestor had wielded in combat with the pharaoh, thousands of years ago.

"And I have managed to create something with similar debilitating effects, while not being lethal in any way."

"Kaiba, what is this madness?"

"Well, I realised that in this 'Shadow realm', you were almost defeated by Marik, and as my deck is vastly superior to his, with similar distractions, I am almost certain to win."

"But Kaiba, you are potentially re-releasing the shadow games, many of lives will be at stake."

"No they won't, for my disks will only simulate that effect, combining the effects of modern technology and herbs of a mental suppressing nature. Pegasus' company is producing many new cards for this tournament, including millennium cards, cards that embody the power of the millennium items. Now to test my system, wheeler, you can spectate, but from your position, the full power of these new systems won't be revealed to you, do you have your deck Yugi?"

"Of course"

Spoke the spirit of the pharaoh, whose reign had ended with Kaiba's descendant's betrayal.

"Then let's duel."

________________________________________________________________________

(Kaiba's private duelling field, top of Kaibacorp headquarters.)

Yugi and Kaiba walked to the centre of the field, and put on their duel disks, noting that they were heavier than usual, Yugi walked to his designated spot on the roof, then they each activated their duel disks.

As the field arm extended itself from the disk, 8000 life points flashed up on the screen, and a dark purple mass began to surround them, Kaiba had done his planning well.

"Yugi, put on the eye-piece and the gas mask!"

Kaiba shouted across the darkening field. Yugi noticed a small gas mask with elastic straps, similar to the sort you'd get in hospitals, and a computer screen, the size of a lens from a pair of glasses, mounted on an ear piece with a microphone, which held itself in front of his mouth. He put both of these on, and waited for Kaiba to explain the new rules.

"As you can see, Yugi, the holographic emitters produce a purple cloud, similar to that of the shadow realm, and that gasmask you are wearing will supply you with oxygen in a steady rate, the life points have been doubled again, and the eyepiece will give you various pieces of information, which change according to your skill level, and whether you have any cards that make it do anything different. My step-brother had some useful ideas with the deck master system, and so, those who wish to use it can choose it by setting their duel disks to DMS, on the little control panel next to your hand. And for novices, the rules will be explained on the eyepiece. Now to the cleverest part of the new system, the debilitating effects, whenever you take damage to your life points, you shall be forced to inhale marijuana smoke, with concentration, and amount varying with your tolerance and skill levels. Also, if you take a direct hit, the concentration will double, and you'll have to inhale twice as much. For this battle our disks will be set on 'medium' and performance in this and future duels will change the setting, rather than doing it manually, you can switch it off, if you and your opponent agree. Each deck carries enough marijuana for 10 duels, after which they will need to be refilled. Now; IT'S TIME TO DUEL!!!!!!."

With these words, a small light ignited on the side of the disks, and the 2 champion duellists drew their cards.

Oh, nasty cliffie there, the duel will begin next chapter, I have made up new cards for the tournament, but these will not be absurdly powerful, so don't worry, anyone wishing to have a cameo in the tournament, leave a review, and email me your deck list, along with the name you'd like to be called, sex, description, and also whether you want any new cards added, made up cards will be considered, and may be adapted to suit, and I will be happy to add any of my new cards to your virtual decks, should I see fit.

Any one who is allergic to marijuana smoke, the magic of story-telling shall fix it so you aren't. See you next chapter, and remember, the only way to leave this greeney Smokey place, is to use the review button. Oh and no millennium items please.

(Mr. Towel disappears in a cloud of funny smelling smoke, leaving just the reader, north is the review button, behind you is the story, pick one exit.)
