Here's the next chapter. Now, on with the story
Out heroes had just made it out from the building, and were now making their way to the duel where the alleged card, Reshef the Dark Being, was being used. Luckily it was a block away from the building. Kaiba, who was ahead of his and the other two teams, was now making his way through the crowd, trying to get closer to get a better view of the duel. And it wasn't long until he made it to just outside of it. He sees quite an interesting site: it was a two-on-two team duel, and Ref-Bot 26 was refereeing the whole thing. He didn't know who the two teams were, one side that was blue alliance had one kid, about eleven, who had a red and blue tie-dye shirt, black hair that looked almost purple, and it looked like his left eye was red, and his right eye was blue. On his red and blue swirled Battle City-like duel disk, his life point meter read as: 4400, he had three sarcophagus-like things, probably magic or trap cards, because in front of them was his only monster, a fusion monster known as Kamionwizard…
ATK: 1300
DEF: 1100
…and he had two cards in his hand.
His teammate was a twelve year old boy. He was a red haired kid with freckles and purple rectangle-lens glasses. The rest of his clothing was hidden under a large brown robe, like from a religion that held rituals. On his Battle City-like duel disk (which looked gold, and old, like an artifact), his life point meter read as: 3800, he had no magic or trap cards, his only monster was a Ritual Monster known as Chakra…
ATK: 2450
DEF: 2000
…And he had three cards in his hand.
He now sees the red alliance team. Going in a complete circle, Kaiba now focuses on the opponent that is right in front of the robe guy. She had dark skin, black curly hair that was held in a pony tail with a pink scrunchy, an orange top with ruffled sleeves and that skirt thing on the bottom, along with black pants and orange women's shoes. She, along with her teammate, had a pear white Battle City-like duel disk with gold linings, and a small "G" insignia on the corners of the duel disk. Her life point meter read as: 5600, she had no magic or trap cards, her only monster was an effect monster known as Chaos Command Magician…
ATK: 2400
DEF: 1900
…and she had one card in her hand.
Her teammate was a young boy, about nine. He had blond hair, a blue blazer/jacket along with a light blue turtle-neck sweater, beige shorts, socks, and brown shoes. On his duel disk, his life point meter read as: 5700, he had no magic or trap cards, his only monster was the Ritual Monster and the one everyone was talking about, Reshef the Dark Being …
ATK: 2500
DEF: 1500
…And he had three cards in his hand. He then spoke up.
Blazer kid: thanks to my Final Ritual of the Ancients Magic card, I was able to summon my Reshef the Dark Being, one of my rarest and strongest monsters.
Kaiba needed answers, and quick, so he turned to the closes person next to him, which was a girl, who was also eleven. This girl had black hair that looked almost purple, just like the red and blue duelist, and the hair was held up in a standing pony tail by those oriental hair stick-things. Her clothing was of white and Black (almost dark purple) ninja apparel with a red linings and a red headband. Her Battle City-like duel disk was the same color as her clothing.
Kaiba: excuse me.
Ninja girl: (notices Kaiba) oh, hey there.
Kaiba: what's going on in this duel?
Ninja girl: well, that kid in the blue blazer just summoned that Reshef monster. I think his name is Blake Gripling, and-
Kaiba: (interrupting) wait! Did you say, "Gripling"?
Ninja girl: yeah…
Kaiba: (eyes narrow) just as I thought.
Just then, the rest of Team Yugi, and both Team KND and Team Possible made it to where Kaiba was.
Yugi: there you are. Why'd you run off like that Kaiba?
Ninja girl: "Kaiba"? As in "Seto Kaiba"? One of the strongest duelists in the world?
Kaiba: yes.
Joey: (looking at the field) so, which one is that Reshef guy that has Kaiba in his mood?
Ninja girl: the kid in the blazer summoned it.
Kaiba: his last name is Gripling.
Yugi: so you know who that is?
Kaiba: not quite, this goes back a long time.
Joey: oh boy, here comes another story from when his step-dad ran Kaiba Corp.
Kaiba: back when my step-father ran Kaiba Corp. he had a business partner who I only knew as Gripling. Gozaburo and Gripling were somewhat of pals, next to Lector of the big 5; he was Gozaburo's right hand man.
Flashback
Kaiba: (voice over) when I took over and turned it into a gaming company, Gripling did all that he could to get control of Kaiba Corp. He pulled every trick and stunt he could think of, just to get his hands on Kaiba Corp. until finally, I confronted him.
We now see a young Seto Kaiba, in his blue trench coat (this was a few years before he first dueled Yugi) facing an elder man in a white suit in a meeting room. His face was hidden in shadows.
Young Kaiba: I'm sure you're wondering why I called you here, Gripling. Well, I'll be frank; it's because of your constant tricks of trying to get Kaiba Corp. in your control. And I, for one, am sick of it.
Gripling: listen you little punk, Gozaburo worked his whole life to make this company. I won't let some prepubescent brat like you destroy all that he worked for.
Young Kaiba: I see that you're determent. Therefore, I purposed a little wager: beat me in a game of chess, and Kaiba Corp. is all yours, with no strings attached.
A chess board with chess pieces is brought to them; young Kaiba has white pieces, while Gripling has black.
Gripling: I accept. I must warn you though; I was the one who taught Gozaburo everything he knows about chess.
Young Kaiba made the first move, and the game began.
Kaiba: (voice over) the game raged on for hours, each of us taking pieces, trying to trap the other, his strategies were the same as Gozaburo's. Finally, only one move separated me and Gripling from winning.
Young Kaiba: Knight to H-3.
He moved his knight to the square.
Young Kaiba: check.
Gripling: not a smart move. My queen will take it out.
He moves his queen to young Kaiba's knight, thus, taking it out.
Gripling: your move Seto.
He didn't say anything, he just moved one of his bishops, and it was in front of Gripling's king.
Young Kaiba: checkmate.
Gripling was outraged, he lost. In his rage, he throws the chess set right off of the table.
Gripling: this isn't over Seto! One of these days, I'll have Kaiba Corp. And when I do, I'll change it back to the way it was, and I'll make sure you suffer for it.
Young Kaiba: (not impressed tone) don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Gripling left the room in a huff, slamming the door on the way out.
Flashback ends
Kaiba: I never quite heard from him again. I also know that he has large amounts of shares of Industrial Illusions, so I guess he managed to get that card.
Joey: so… the kid in the blazer is his son?
Kaiba: yes Wheeler, that's his son.
Numbuh 2: so, how bad can this Reshef card be?
Kaiba: to be honest Numbuh 2, I'm not quite sure myself.
Ron: but didn't you say you were after it? That would technically mean you knew what it was capable of.
Kaiba: I never got the chance to get a better look at it. I guess all we can do is see what it can do. I just hope that Gripling's opponents can take it out.
Ninja Girl: don't sweat it, I'm sure Chuckie and Tommy can handle it.
Yugi: you know them?
Ninja girl: of course I know them, I'm on their team, and Chuckie's my brother. (Lets out hand) I'm Kimi.
Yugi: I'm Yugi (shakes hand), so which one's your brother, the red and blue guy?
Kimi: no, that's Tommy. Chuckie is the one in the robe.
Ron: uh, guys, something's happening!
They all look on and saw the field the Reshef the Dark Being was glowing.
Tommy: what's going on?
Blake: simple, Tommy: by sending a magic card from my hand to the graveyard, I'm able to activate my Reshef's card effect and control one of your monsters for a turn.
Blake shows him the magic card (the image was a six sided die behind two swords forming an X) and sends it to the graveyard. One of the glowing orbs on Reshef is now heading towards Chuckie's Chakra; the orb enters Chakra, and was going to Blake's side of the field.
Blake: (to his teammate) Miranda, if you would be so kind?
Miranda: of course Blake. Chaos Command Magician, control shift to Blake and follow his orders.
The Chaos Command Magician moves to Blake's side of the field.
Blake: now then, Chakra, destroy his Kamionwizard with eye of Chakra!
Chakra shoots an energy beam from its eye, and it hits Kamionwizard, thus destroying it.
Tommy: 3250
Blake: now Reshef the Dark Being, and Chaos Command Magician, attack their life points directly!
Reshef shot an energy beam at Tommy while Chaos Command Magician shot a magical energy beam at Chuckie. Both guarded themselves with their duel disk, and the blast hits both of them, pushing them back a few feet.
Tommy: 750
Chuckie: 1400
Kimi: hang in there guys! You can still win this!
Blake: HA! Hardly, but I'll tell you what, I'll end my turn right now so you can catch your breaths.
Tommy: this duel isn't over yet, my turn now!
He draws his card and looks at it. At the same time, the three sarcophagus-like things start glowing.
Joey: hey, what's up with those things?
Kimi was about to answer, but another person did. This person was a girl, about thirteen with blond hair and a heart shaped burette. She was wearing a red-ish top, white/beige caprice pants, and orange platform-ish shoes. Her Battle city-like duel disk was about the same color as her clothing.
Blond girl: that's the Different Dimension Capsules.
Joey: who are you?
Kimi: that's Angelica; she's another member of our team.
Angelica: hey there. Anyway, those capsules are the magic cards Different Dimension Capsule.
Yugi: I don't think I've heard of that card. What are they suppose to do?
Angelica: well, with one, you can take any one card from your deck and remove it from play, then, on the second turn after you play it, that very same card it retuned in your hand.
Joey: that's convenient. Maybe we should get a few of those.
Yugi: so with three, you can get three cards, right?
Angelica: yep.
Kim: so, any idea what Mr. red and blue took?
Angelica: well, my cousin waited until he had three of those cards so he could use them all at once, so I'd think it's a safe bet that one or more of the cards he took was his Blue Eyes White Dragons.
They heard what she said, but it was a good five seconds before they understood what she said. Their eyes widen in realization, but Kaiba's was the biggest.
Kaiba: I'm sorry, I must have something in my ear, becauses I could have sworn you said he has Blue Eyes White Dragons.
Angelica: you heard right.
Kaiba: that's impossible! there are only three Blue Eyes in the world and I have them all.
Angelica: then I guess that makes you Seto Kaiba. Well I guess you didn't hear that Pegasus made more of those cards when he got out of retirement.
Kaiba: WHAT? You're lying!
Numbuh 1: um, actually, she's telling the truth.
He then takes his deck out, and shows him his Blue Eyes White Dragons.
Joey: you've gotta to be kidding me, there're more of those dragons?
Numbuh 2: guys, shut up, I want to see this.
Everyone looks on as the three capsules start to open up.
Tommy: since it has been two turns after I played my three Different Dimension Capsules, the three cards I removed from play is now sent to my hand.
The capsules open widely as three large holographic cards come out of it. They glow and disappear, and at that point, three cards are popped out from Tommy's graveyard, and he takes the cards.
Tommy: perfect. Now I'll play a magic card, (puts card in duel disk) my Polymerization!
The magic card is shown on the field.
Blake: (mocking tone) oh, I'm so scared. So, what poor excuse of monsters are you fusing now?
Tommy just smiled as he revealed the three cards that he was fusing (which were the same that were in the capsules). He turned them around to show Blake and Miranda what they were. They were Three Blue Eyes White Dragons. (A/N: these Blue Eyes are the ones from the "Dark Beginning" Booster Packs (the image of the dragon behind the stone tablet), and once they saw them, they gasped in fear.
Tommy: that's right; I'll fuse my three Blue Eyes to make Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon!
The three blue eyes are shown n the field. They start twirl together to make a new monster, and the new fusion monster is summoned when Tommy places the correct fusion monster on his duel disk.
ATK: 4500
DEF: 3800
Tommy: I'm not done yet. (Puts card in duel disk) I play another magic card.
The magic card is shown on the field.
Tommy: Double Spell!
Miranda: what does that do?
Tommy: simple, all I have to do is send one magic card from my hand to the graveyard, and I'm able to use a card in my opponent's graveyard.
He shows a De-Fusion magic card before sending it to the graveyard.
Tommy: I'll raid Blake's graveyard, and I know what card I'll take.
A small hologram of magic cards in Blake's graveyard is shown in front of Tommy (sort of like from the Virtual adventure with the Big 5 when they chose cards for their decks). He selects the dice card that Blake sent to the graveyard on his last turn, Blake's graveyard glows, and the card pops out of it. Ref-Bot 26 appears in front of both Tommy and Blake; it takes the card from the graveyard by using its extending arms, and sends it to Tommy.
Tommy: (takes card) now I'll activate the Equip magic card, Attack Dice! (A/N: made that one up)
The magic card is shown on the field. A blue six sided die appear in the middle Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon's mouth.
Duke: whoa! Attack Dice? I didn't think it existed.
Zita: why? What does it do?
Duke: as long as that Equip-magic card is equipped to the monster, that same monster is able to attack a certain number of times depending on the roll of the die.
Ron: dude, seriously?
Duke: oh yeah, it's one of the rarest, too.
Kimi: and soon, it'll be Tommy's.
Ron: what?
Kimi: oh, sorry, I forgot, you weren't here at that time. Blake there was so sure about winning, he wagered his two rarest cards he had.
Yugi: which would be that dice card and Reshef.
Kimi: yep.
Tommy: (thinking) if I get a four or more, I'll win the duel. (Aloud) Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon, roll the attack dice!
The middle head shoots out the die in the air, and it comes down rolling. Everyone was in suspense when the die was spinning on its corner, until finally; it landed on a… four.
Tommy: YES! A four! Now Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon, attack four times. Destroy their monsters and the rest of their life points! NEUTRON BLAST!
The three dragon heads form electricity in their mouths, they came together to form a giant energy ball. They shoot the ball and it destroys the two monsters. They shoot another blast and it hits both Miranda and Blake, they both guarded themselves with their duel disk, and the blast knocked them to the ground.
Miranda: 0
Blake: 0
Ref-Bot 26: Miranda and Blake's life points are zero, Team Gripling loses. The winner is: Team Pickles! As the victor, your puzzle spheres will be solved by one turn, while the representatives of Team Gripling lose a solved portion of their puzzle spheres.
The top of Team Gripling duel disk where glowing. Team Pickles holds their puzzle sphere over the light and it turns vertically by itself, while the puzzle spheres belonging to Blake and Miranda turn as well, but in an opposite direction.
Tommy: I believe you owe us something. I'm already holding on to your Attack Dice, but you still owe Chuckie here your Reshef and the ritual magic card that goes with it.
Blake: grrr. Fine! Take them! (Gives Chuckie the two cards) you haven't heard the last of me! I'll be back!
He runs off, and Miranda and the other two teammates follow him.
Kaiba: (thinking) hmm, like father, like son. (Laughs a bit)
Soon the crowds started to get smaller, leaving only Team Yugi, Team KND, Team Possible and Team Pickles. The teams started talking.
Yugi: boy that seemed like a tough match.
Tommy: yeah it was. By the way, the name's Tommy Pickles, Captain of Team Pickles. Let me introduce you to the rest of our teams.
He gestures the last four members of his team. The youngest boy, who was ten, had strawberry blond hair, a leather jacket with a white shirt, jeans and sneakers, his Battle City-like duel disk was silver and red, and it looked like it was part of the arm. Two of them were fraternal twins, about eleven, with brown hair; the girl was wearing a wizard hat with a cloke/cape, a simple light purple dress, with women's sneakers, and the boy was wearing something that Steve Irwin: the Crocodile Hunter wore. The girl's Battle City-like duel disk was silver with gems on it, and the boy's had nature decals on it. And last, a girl, about thirteen, she had dark skin, long curled hair that was held in a bandana, and a sunwrap with jeans and open toe shoes. Her Battle City-like duel disk looked like it was water proof because it had a plastic housing all over it.
Tommy: (Points to girl) this is Susie.
Susie: what's up?
Tommy: (points to twins) the twins, Phil and Lil.
Lil: hello.
Phil: how you doing?
Tommy: (points to last kid) and my little brother, Dil.
Dil: hey there.
Yugi: well, you know me and Kaiba already. (Points to others) this is Joey, Mai, Tristan, Tea, Duke, Mako, Mokuba and Serenity.
The rest of Team Yugi: (all at once) Hey! How's it going? Hello.
Mokuba: hey, how come all your duel disk are diffrent?I thought thet all had to be the same.
Chuckie: well, technically no, we just had to show that we're all on the same team, and these iron-ons do the trick.
They all turn around to show that their names are on the back of there shirts.
Yugi: clever.
Tommy: (notices the other two teams) so, who are you guys, friends of Yugi who are on different teams?
Kim: that's about it. I'm Kim Possible.
Kimi: (gasp) no way! The Kim Possible, the teen hero?
Kim: the very same.
Ron: and I'm Ron Stoppable, Kim's partner in crime fighting.
Monique: (under a cough) and boyfriend.
Kim: (blushing) Monique!
Dil: wait, wait, wait! Is that true? (To Kim and Ron) are you two really an item now?
Kim blush became deeper, and Ron was blushing as well. Kim began to Twirl her hair with her finger
Kim: um… Heh-heh.Yeah, we are.
Ron: Mmm-hmm.
Dil: (Pauses)…YES! (To his Teammates) Everyone owes me 50 bucks, each.
The rest of Team Pickles: (Disappointed)AWW!
Numbuh 1: don't forget about us. We're the Kids Next Door, and I must say, that was an excellent duel.
Mai: yeah, to be honest, we didn't expect anyone else to carry the Blue Eyes White Dragons.
Tommy: yeah, a lot of people think that.
Kaiba: (Sighs) I still can't believe this! I can't Believe Pegasus made more Blue Eyes.
Phil: Yeesh, what's his problem?
Mokuba: it kinda dates back when Seto and I were younger. See, I drew for him a Blue Eyes card to cheer him up, he was feeling kinda low. Anyway, long story short, that drawing made him somewhat happy, and he bent on getting all the Blue Eyes so it can never be used against him.
Tommy: so I guess with more Blue Eyes cards, Kaiba has to face not being only one who can weld it. That's sort of sad, feeling that he's no longer worthy of it, just because there are more out there.
Kaiba: I'll have you know that I'm the only one worthy of welding a Blue Eyes White Dragon, and I aim to prove it. I challenge your team to a duel, me and you being representatives; the winner will be titled as the true welder of the Blue Eyes.
Tommy: I see that you're gonna be determine to duel and win no matter what. Alright, I accept your challenge, how about three-on-three? My team's strongest versus yours.
Kaiba: three-on-three it is.
Tommy: me, Chuckie, and Dil are the strongest in our team.
Kaiba: and Yugi, Joey, and myself are the strongest on ours.
Joey: what? You're actually choosing me, under your own will?
Kaiba: look, I'll admit that you're an okay duelist, and you're pretty much high ranked, just don't rub it in.
Joey: alright Kaiba, I'm with you.
Yugi: you can count me in, too.
Just then, the millennium puzzle starts to glow, and the light consumes him.
YU-GI-OH!
The puzzle stops glowing, and Yami Yugi appears. He takes off his jacket, and wears it like a cape.
Yami Yugi: let's do this!
Dil: whoa-ho,cool special effects.
Chuckie: did he just get taller? And did his voice got deeper?
Tommy: worry about that later, let's duel now!
Ref-Bot 26: then it's agreed! I am Ref-Bot 26, I shall referee this team duel, whatever I say goes, is that clear?
The two groups nod.
Ref-Bot 26: good. Now shuffle and cut your decks as I explain the basic rules.
Kaiba, Yami Yugi, Joey, Tommy, Dil, Chuckie walked to each other to shuffle and cut their decks.
Ref-Bot 26: this shall be an official Team World three-on-three tag-team Duel, Team Yugi vs. Team Pickles. The representative for Team Pickles: Tommy Pickles, Dil Pickles, and Chuckie Finster. The Representatives for Team Yugi: Seto Kaiba, Joey Wheeler, and Yugi Mutou.
The two team finish shuffling and cutting their decks, then they walk back a bit to their Duel stands.
Ref-Bot 26: The rules are simple; each Duelist will have 8000 life points. You must defeat all the duelist on the opposing team in order to win, Last team with a surviving duelist wins. Prepare to duel!
Kaiba, Joey, and Yami Yugi stick their left hands out, and small devices launch off their duel disk, three go to the right, and three go to the left. The three to the right lock together to form a ring, then it sprout glider wings and landing gear. It lands and the wings fold back in, the ring folds half in the direction of the team, and it glows a rainbow color, the same happens to the left side. Their duel disks folds into activation, and glows the same Rainbow color.
Tommy, Dil, and Chuckie then stick their left hands out, and small devices launch off their duel disk, three go to the right, and three go to the left, they do the same thing as the other two. Their duel disks folds into activation, and glows the same Rainbow color.
Ref-Bot 26: Team Yugi shall be Blue alliance. Team Pickles shall be Red alliance; turn order shall be decided via coin toss.
A giant Holographic coin with one side red, and the other side blue appeared in front of them. It went up twirling, then it came back down spinning on its side, then it went down red side up.
Ref-Bot 26: Red alliance: choose the order.
Tommy: Kaiba goes first, then me. After me, Joey goes, followed by my brother, Dil. Yugi takes his turn, then it will be Chuckie's, then back to me. (A/N: they are standing in the order they are taking their turns)
Ron: (to Yami Yugi, Joey and Kaiba) guys!
Yami Yugi: yes?
Ron: we're sorry to leave you guys like this, but my team and I have to find a duel ourselves.
Yami Yugi: that's okay Ron, good luck to you.
Ron: thanks, we'll meet up later when were done.
He and The rest of his team run off to find themselves a duel (A/N: I'll get back to them later).
Numbuh 4: we're with you man! Give them hell, boys!
Tea: good luck guys!
Ref-Bot 26: Draw your cards and begin!
They all draw five cards.
Tommy: this should be fun.
Tommy: 8000
Dil: 8000
Chuckie: 8000
Kaiba: alright Tommy, let's see who best with the Blue Eyes. It's time to duel!
Kaiba: 8000
Joey: 8000
Yami Yugi: 8000
I'll cut it off there for now. The reason I gave some of the All Grown Up gang costumes was that I thought it would be more creative, their costumes represent what type of cards they use, try and guess which has which. In later stories, they'll have their normal attire. Read and Review!
