Yu-Gi-Oh! Genex: Neo

Chapter 11: A Very Long Boat Ride

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

The two long weeks passed by very quickly, and pretty soon, the grand day arrived.

The parents had agreed that since the weather was going to be cooler than it had been the last time around, they needed to bring blankets, food, and a tent. Once that was out of the way, they could go to the cruise ship.

Once the cars were parked, Misaki and Kevin ran ahead, and stared at it. "Holy cow," breathed Misaki ,"its so big!" Kevin nodded, "I wonder where we're gonna stay." Just then, their parents caught up with them. "Look at that," Yugi commented, "It hasn't changed at all over the years." Anzu agreed and wrapped her arms around Yugi's chest.

After getting their tickets ready, the intrepid group boarded the boat. Since Yugi had one the last tourney, he got a luxury suite for the family. The same applied to Joey and his family.

As soon as they were settled in, Misaki asked, "Mommy, Daddy, can Kevin and I go hang out on the deck?" Yugi smiled, "Sure you can. I'll get you when its time for bed." Misaki grinned, and ran out of the room.

As soon as the kids were on the deck, they leaned over the railings and enjoyed the ocean view. "Isn't it pretty," Misaki breathed. Kevin nodded, "Yeah, I guess. So, what's your favorite Duel Monsters card?" Misaki pulled out a card with a picture of a beautiful red haired girl brandishing an elaborate sword. Kevin nodded, "Wow! That's Magic Knight of Rayearth! My favorite is Red Eyes Black Dragon. It used to be my dad's."

Just then, a voice interrupted them, "So, are you all alone?" Misaki stared at the strange two men, and Kevin asked, "Who're you guys?" The taller one was wearing a purple ski hat and had long brown hair, while his companion had bright green-blue hair, and oddly shaped glasses.

Weevil grinned psychotically at them, "All alone, and on your first dueling tournament? Too bad for you two, because we planning on taking you two out early, and we can take your precious cards."

"Nuh-uh," Misaki shouted back, fighting back tears. Kevin said angrily, "Shut up."

Rex stared at the children, "Please. Haven't your parents taught you any manners?"

Just then, a tall man, with blue-black hair appeared, and touched their shoulders, "Still pestering small children? You two are as pathetic as ever. If you do not leave them alone, I will throw you both overboard!"

Weevil and Rex turned around, screamed like girls, and took off. Misaki thanked their rescuer, "Thank you very much, sir." Mako smiled at the two children, "I am Mako Tsunami, Ocean Duelist. And who might you two be?"

Misaki nodded, "I am Misaki Suzahara." Kevin chimed in, "I'm Kevin Wheeler." Mako stared at Kevin, "Then your father is Joey Wheeler?" "Yeah, he is," Kevin announced proudly. Misaki piped up, "My dad is Yugi Moto."

Mako was surprised to hear who the kids' fathers were. He bowed to them, "Then I wish you the best of luck in the tournament," before leaving.

After a few minutes, Yugi and Joey appeared. "Dad! Dad," Misaki shouted, "There were these two weird guys, and we were rescued by Mako Tsunami!"

Yugi scooped her up, and told, "I dueled Mako a long time ago. Who were the guys who were scary?"

"Yeah," Joey added, "so I can kick their butts!" Kevin told him, "One had bug glasses, and the other guy had long hair." Yugi and Joey exchanged a worried glance, and put the kids to bed.

The next morning, the whole gang stared out from the deck to the island growing closer with every minute. Nobody knew what was in store, but they were all going to face it together.
