Chapter 8: For the Ones You Love

Yami, Leona, Katrina, and Blossom smiled as they saw Kaiba. Leona couldn't contain herself any longer. She happily ran to her husband. "Seto, I'm so glad you're alright." Leona said happily as tears of joy ran down her cheeks as she hugged him. "See Leona we told you that you'd be in Kaiba's arms in no time." Katrina told her best friend. Kaiba looked at Leona and saw how happy she was. He returned her hug by angrily pushing her away from him and shoving her to the ground.

"Seto?" Leona asked in shock. Katrina and Blossom ran up to their best friend. "Leona are you ok?" Katrina asked. Leona nodded and got up. "Kaiba what the heck is wrong with you? Leona's been worried sick about you and this is how you repay her? Blossom yelled. (Blossom's right. Something is definitely wrong here. Kaiba would never hurt Leona. I'm guessing Anubis has something to do with this.) Yugi thought. "Seto, please tell me what's wrong?" Leona asked, but received no answer from Kaiba.

"He only obeys me." Anubis's voice echoed. Yami glared angrily at the direction of the voice. "Anubis!" Yami yelled. "About time you got here Pharaoh. I was beginning to worry. Worried that my servants had already destroyed you so I wouldn't have the pleasure of getting rid of you myself!" Anubis said and laughed. "What have you done to Kaiba?" Yami asked. "I haven't done a thing. He wanted this. I just gave him what he wanted. Ultimate power." Anubis answered.

"And it's enough to finally beat you, Yugi." Kaiba finally spoke. "I'm sick and tired of being a second rate duelist to you! I deserve to have the number one title in the world not you! And I'll have that title once I beat you in this final duel!" Kaiba said angrily. Leona looked at Kaiba and saw so much anger and rage in his eyes. (What's happened to you Seto?) Leona thought worriedly. "Kaiba I won't duel you." Yami said. "Is the mighty King of Games afraid to lose his title? Too bad because you don't have a choice!" Kaiba replied as the door shut. "We're trapped in here." Katrina said.

Yami took out his duel deck. "Fine Kaiba. If it will help end this insanity, then let's duel." Yami accepted. He looked at Leona. "I'm sorry Leona, but this is the only way." Yami told her. Leona just nodded. Kaiba took out his dek and explained the rules for the duel. "First off in this duel we'll only be using one monster, the rest goes to the graveyard. And we're only allowed to use our magic and trap cards" Kaiba explained. (What? One monster that's crazy.) Yugi thought. "Fine." Yami agreed. He looked through his deck and placed a card on the duel disk. "I summon Dark Magician." Yami said.

"I figured you'd play your favorite card, but he's no match for mine. Blue-Eyes White Dragon come forth!" Kaiba said as he placed his favorite card on the duel disk. (Fools, your ancient rivalry will end at my hands. The power and energy that I will gain from this duel will destroy you all.) Anubis thought. "I can't believe Yami is going through with this. If he loses his Dark Magician, Kaiba can easily attack him." Blossom said. "Don't worry sis, Yami can beat Kaiba, but it's going to be tough." Katrina said. "Yami you have to win. In order to free Seto from whatever Anubis has done to him you have to win. I just hope that this duel doesn't get out of hand." Leona said.

The duel started with both players at 4,000 life points. "I'll start this duel by playing one card face down and end my turn." Yami said. Kaiba drew from his deck. "If I attack now I'll be underestimating that face down card of yours so I'll get rid of it. I activate the magic card Heavy Storm." Kaiba said activating his magic card. Yami smiled. "Why thank you Kaiba. You fell into my trap. Activate face down card, Magic Jammer." Yami replied activating his trap card.

"So what I can still attack your monster! Blue-Eyes White Dragon attack his Dark Magician!" Kaiba commanded. The Blue-Eyes White Dragon attacked destroying Dark Magician and causing Yami to lose 500 life points. Everyone noticed a blue line of energy streams flowing from Yami's body. Yami slowly staggered back, but gained control of himself. "Not this again. Every time we lose life points our energy is being drained." Yami said. He drew from his deck. "I activate the magic card Monster Reborn to bring back my Dark Magician." Yami said.

The energy that Yami had lost flowed into the millennium bracelet which Anubis held. (Soon I'll have enough power to destroy them all.) Anubis thought. The duel continued to rage on. Each turn that passed drained someone's energy. The more life energy that was drained the more Anubis grew stronger. Leona, Katrina, and Blossom could only watch on as the duel continued. Neither duelist seemed to give up as their life points slowly diminished.

Meanwhile, "Ok Einstein do you have anymore brilliant ideas?" Mai asked Joey as everyone were surrounded by mummies from every corner. "There's too many of them. The more we destroy two more take their places." Mokuba said. "I hope Yuge and the others are having better luck than we are. I'm running out of ideas." Joey replied. The children looked up at the giant pyramid in the sky. "C'mon dad I know you end all this." Aiko said. The mummies slowly started to approach everyone. (Mommy please with this fight.) Terry thought.

"Had enough?" Kaiba asked. "Kaiba, please stop this. Our life points are almost gone and I know you can feel yourself getting weaker." Yami answered. "They both only have 100 life points left." Katrina said. "And their monsters are evenly matched thanks to Yami's Black Pendant magic card. It's anyone's duel." Blossom added. Leona looked on as Kaiba and Yami grew weaker with every second that passed by. "This has to stop." Leona said heart broken. "Now Blue-Eyes White Dragon attack with white lightning!" Kaiba commanded. "Dark Magician attack with dark magic attack!" Yami commanded. As both attacks headed towards each other, Leona couldn't take it anymore by just standing there. "Please this has to stop!" Leona yelled and ran towards them. "LEONA COME BACK!" Both Katrina and Blossom yelled. Leona ignored her friend's words and continued to run. "STOOOOOP!" Leona yelled as she got in the way of both attacks as they collided.
