Heart of The Cards EX
Info about my lil' fan fiction:
This is my first (and probably last) fan fiction. I've decided to base it from my favorite anime, Yu-Gi-Oh! Go ahead and laugh! What many people don't realize is that Yu-Gi-Oh! isn't just "another Pokemon". So, for all the Yu-Gi-Oh! haters out there: DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER! Anyhoo, I haven't really planned out a story, but time will say different. The chars are actually based off my friends and family. Please give me some feedback, positive or negative. ONE note though: feedback about the FAN FICTION! NOT YU-GI-OH! But, you are more than welcome to judge the duels. And for anyone who wants to sue me, Yu-Gi-Oh! is © by Kazuki Takahashi and the card game is © by Konami. I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! and I am not its creator, so "HA!" on you! Thank you:D
Author's Note: Well, the Domin City Regional Tournament is about to begin! Who will attend? Will the Rare Hunters try to duel Alex again? Find out the answers to these questions in the next chapter of Heart of the Cards EX!
