3000 B.C.

Joey woke up to the sound walking down the steps, which creaked along the steps of the gold key wearer. Joey had landed on a soft pillow of feathers, which had dramatically saved him from ultimate despair. However, the turban wearer was aware of the feathers, and was too sure of Joey's survival.

"Where am I," asked Joey. "You are deep within the layers of earth, where the only loyal ones may be set free. Now, Joey, prepare for the ultimate test!" Then, the turbaned guy revealed another golden object, but this was only half of the size. Joey knew what it was, or at least the shape of it.

It was a sword made out of gold, and it shown most shiningly against the gray background. The stranger then took the sword and then threw it into the chest of which was, Joey. Joey cried for his mother and father, and then fainted...

Meanwhile, the battle between the pharaoh's servant, Seto, and Ra's servant, Marik, waged on. Seto then saw the opportunity to end this duel. He played the dragon, Kaiser dragon. Marik knew there was nothing to be afraid of, since he, possessed one of the greatest trap tablets in the shadow duels. Of course, Marik had known. So he then encouraged Seto to attack. Seto knew that what the possessed person's strategy.

If Seto attacked now, then Marik would spring his trap. So, instead, Seto used one of his magicians to double the attack energy, and knew that the acid hole wouldn't work for the powerful beast. But still, Seto wasn't too sure...

Joey woke up to the sound of the clanging, which was hard cold against his light shirt. The gold sword was hanging around his neck, and he knew he had passed the "test". The turban wearer was nowhere to be seen with the blur, and soon, a girl came into Joey's vision.

She had very long blonde hair and was very Egyptian. In fact, she was the daughter of a very wealthy landowner. Her name was Mai Valentine. Seto made up his mind. He was going to attack. As soon as it attacked, Marik, the possessed slave, sprained his trap. Seto was ready for this, so he used two of his magicians to use Kaiser dragon's special power.

It allowed him to destroy any trap. Marik was devastated, since now he was prune to being attacked. Just as predicted, Seto summoned his blue eyes white dragon and attacked Marik directly, causing the whole field to be shadowed in smoke. Ra had seen this, and was very angry.

He cast his portion of his great power into one of the tablets in Marik's collection. Marik, on the other hand, had no idea that it was hidden. He wouldn't have, and he then looked at his hand, and was shocked to see one of the tablets was...

THE WINGED DRAGON OF RA...

"Who are you and where am I?" Joey asked to Mai.

"My name is Mai," Mai answered, "What's yours?"

"Joey."

It was then that Joey had realized the gold object around Mai's neck, which looked like his, but was a shield made out of gold instead of a sword. It was about the same size as his sword.

"Where did you get the gold thing?" Joey asked.

"Oh this?" Mai pointed to her shield, "I got this when my father was in Cairo." then she knew why he had asked her.

"Where did you get that?" she pointed to his sword.

"I don't really know, all I know is that this turban wearing guy was with me and he had a key made out of gold too, and he put it around my neck. That's all I remember." Joey replied.

Mai laughed and then sighed with awe. "You know, I don't think it was a coincidence that we have these gold things, I think it's fate. I wonder if my cousin has one, since he's another one of the royal family."

"You mean, you're a princess," Joey said with a shocked.

"Yeah, but don't say it out too loud," Mai said.

"Then who's your cousin you're talking about," Joey said, this time, with more respect, but the strange thing was, Joey never was respectful to people.

"The pharaoh."

"Oh, then I better treat you with more respect."

"Very funny."…
