WA: Woot! Let's go!

DISCLAIMER: WE DON'T OWN YUGIOH!

The three boys were soaked and were running towards a building seeing some people were coming out of it. "Ar-Are you sure this is where Mahado, Mana, and Yamu were taken, Atem?" Joey said almost out of breath. "Well…" Atem licked his lips trying to figure it out himself, "I'm not sure but this is where the Haru was leading us." When he ran up to the building with a group walking out on his first step on the building he felt it. He could feel Mahado's aura was here. "Yes!" He said, "This is where they are. But why in a pretty busy building?" But he figured he just couldn't just stand here and wonder why. He needed to find them and get them out here safely.

He ran up the stairs skipping two by two. Yugi and Joey were out of breath but followed Atem anyway. When they stepped inside they realized…" We're in a museum!" Yugi exclaimed. "Yea..." Joey said on his breathing. "We better start walking." Atem said and started walking but at a pretty fast pace. His eyes started looking around for a door or anything that looked out of the ordinary. "Hey look." Yugi said facing a group of cloaked men. "Didn't Kokoro mention something about….cloaked men?" Joey nodded. "I remember that." "Then it looks like we came to the right place after all." Atem said now eyeing the men. Then he saw the men now were eying them and started to swift away.

"Eh?" Atem said and rushed his way through the crowds to follow the men. "Hey Atem!" Yugi said fighting his way through the crowds. "Wait up buddy!" Joey added. Atem followed them and saw them walk through a door which had an ordinary sign of: "DO NOT ENTER." 'This hide-out is really started to get me curious.' Atem said and opened the door. He looked inside and saw it looked pretty normal just that it was dark inside.

His hand felt its way for a light switch or something but felt none and decided to walk in. Yugi and Joey followed after him feeling their way into the dark. Suddenly the door behind them shut after them the three boys jumped up surprised. "H-h-hey!" Joey said, "Who kicked the door?" "Not me." Yugi said. "Couldn't been me. I'm walking in front of your guys." Atem answered. "Besides we can feel our way out after we get Yamu, Mana, and Mahado out of here."

Silence.

"Joey?"

"Hey Atem…." Joey answered.

"Hm?"

"I don't feel the door knob here anymore…"

"…What!"

"Heheh…" Yugi laughed nervously, "Your just joking around…right Joey?"

"No." Joey answered.

"…Shit" Atem and Yugi cursed in the dark.

"Okay." Yugi said trying to calm down, "Maybe we're just hallucinating. We have no time to worry about doors closing on their own and disappearing. We have to get Mana, Mahado and Yamu out of here!" "Uh…right." Joey said finally claming down. "Okay." Atem said and the boys started walking deeper down into the dark where ever the hallway leads them to. Atem now felt Mahado's aura feeling kind of weary. 'Hold on Mahado!' Atem said to himself only hoping such words could reach Mahado and give him strength.

(Basement)

Mahado couldn't hold his aura any long but he felt pharaoh's presence somewhere in this place. He had to stay strong for pharaoh. If only Mana was here with him he could be able to ask her to send her aura for pharaoh to find them and he could rest. But Mahado had to stay strong for he couldn't feel Mana's aura anywhere. Kokoro and Yamu couldn't possibly know how to send off her aura. He concentrated on his power and did take noticed on tired he was becoming. But he couldn't give up now.

(At Kaiba Land)

"Alright! Move it people!" Seto said practically knocking down some of his employees who were preparing the tournament for tonight. He looked back at the place in Kaiba Land and saw the place was exactly the way how he pictured it. Now to make his tournament complete is to have a lot of duelists and famous duelists such as himself. And Yugi and Atem of course, and it seemed as if Joey Wheeler was getting some publicity too. So he invited Wheeler to his tournament…besides once he "magically" makes his way to the finals he can make a fool out of Wheeler and have his fun. Seto smirked in delight of that but even more so of finally fu-filling his goal and that was to defeat Atem. Once he did that he needed to knock down Yugi which shouldn't be a problem supposing the little boy now is dealing with hormones and now learning "The Troubled Teen." Then all of sudden Seto laughed evilly and was talking about his victory and claiming his title of "King of Games." When Seto was done after his speech looked down and saw every employee staring at him like he was diseased. Seto blushed a bright red but fought it back saying, "I'm sorry. I better head for my office….um…..Keep working! And excuse me!" And then Seto ran out of sight.

(In the museum's hallways)

Yugi and Joey had been walking for a quiet a long while and yet they felt something was wrong. "Hey Joey, your still behind me right?" "Yea I'm right here Yuge." Joey answered. "Okay cool!" Yugi reached out in front and expected to feel Atem's back or something but felt nothing but air then the cool wall.

"…Atem?"

No answer.

"Atem!"

Yet again no answer was to be heard. "H-h-hey…" Yugi stumbled, "Atem was in front of us r-r-r-right?" "Umm…yea." Joey answered then asked, "W-w-why?"

"I asked because he's not here now!"

Atem could feel Mahado's aura becoming stronger and stronger as he walked on. His uneasiness lowered and once it did he noticed something different. He stopped walking and realized it. "Yugi are you there? Joey?" His uneasiness started to creep back in. He put a hand back and noticed nobody was there. Suddenly he saw a bright light turned on in the distance then more and more of the lights turned on blinding him.

"Ah!" Atem yelled covering his eyes and all he could hear was a man's laughter. He slowly opened his eye to look up at the man in front of him, cloaked just like the rest except he didn't have his hood over his face. Atem could see clearly he was around his early thirties and he was growing a beard.

"So is this the ever famous pharaoh?" The man asked smirking, "Master talks about wanting your power." Atem smirked to help himself feel more confident and to make him less scared. "Jeez. I must be like a celebrity if I'm so wanted." Atem answered. "Damn right you are." The man answered, "Well among 'us' your popular and wanted."

"Who's 'us'?"

"Haha! You think I'm going to give that away? I just came here to duel you not to have a nice little conversation with you pharaoh."

"If you're stupid, which you are because you don't know who you're dealing with, yes! You will tell me who's 'us' and who's this 'master' or yours." Atem said with sarcasm and only making his smirk on his lips grow wider. The man grunted and pulled out his arm from under his cloak and revealed a duel disk. The duel disk started its LPs to 4000. (a/n: How natural can I get! LOL! Okay! I'll shut up now.)

"And I can clearly see you have no duel disk on you now so here." The man reached into his cloak and pulled out a duel disk and threw it towards Atem. Atem almost dropped it but his other hand slapped on it firmly catching it. He fastened the duel disk on his arm and inserted his deck.

"Let's duel!" They both said and drew out their cards. (A/n: LOL! I'm Am SOOOOO original! xD)

"Well I guess your 'Highness' wants to go first?" the man asked gaining back his smirk. Atem shrugged and said, "I guess so. Draw." He saw he drew out Kuribo and said, "I put Big Shield Guardner in defense mode and place one card face down." He looked up at the man and said, "I end my turn." "Alright! I draw." The man said drawing his card and looked at his hand.

(Basement)

Sweat was dripping down his face as he felt weaker and weaker. Yet Mahado never ceased to lose hope. I just had to keep on going. He could feel pharaoh's aura somewhere in here. 'What's taking you so long pharaoh?' Something was holding the pharaoh back and Mahado wasn't even thinking of giving up now.

(Mai's home)

"Ohmigosh! Ohmigosh!" Mai said as she reached her mail box and sure enough there was an invitation to Kaiba's tournament. "Haha! Oh this is too rich!" Mai was ripping through the yellowish envelope and inside read the invitation. "Alright! I have to be there, in Kaiba Land at midnight." Mai said thought to herself and looked at what time it was now. Eight-thirty. 'Alright! More time to look my best for tonight." She thought as she looked through the mirror. "Oh EW! When was the last time I had a trim?" She shrieked as she tried to puff up her hair to make it look like it had more flavor. But then she stopped and thought, "What about Atem, Joey and Yugi?"

(In the hallway)

"Is that all you've got?" Atem yelled across as he just lost 500 LPS thanks to the cloaked man's magic card Hinotama now he has 3500 LPS. 'Well damn him!' Atem thought and looked at his field and saw he only had an Aqua Madoor in defense mode which only has 2000 defense. Atem rolled his eyes. 'This guy is stupid!' He just drew his next card without another word and smirked, "Well I do believe this duel is about to end. I don't have time to duel amateurs like you right now. So I guess I should this now!" "Amateur!" The men growled his smirk turning into a glare.

(Deeper in the hall way)

"Hey!" Yugi stopped as lights came on. "AHH! MY EYES!" Joey screamed and right there in front of them was a door. "Hey cool!" Joey said as he ran up to the door and pulled on the knob but it wouldn't budge. "Huh? Hey move ya stupid piece of crap!" "Joey!" Yugi scolded at him. "What? You're my mother or somethin'!" Joey answered. Yugi sighed and tried pushing the door knob. "Oh…." Joey said in complete utter ness. "Well! I knew that!" Yugi rolled his eyes and inside was Mahado looking like he was ready to pass out. "Mahado!" Yugi yelled across the now light up room. Mahado opened his eyes slowly and fell on his side. "Mahado!" Joey yelled as him and Yugi ran towards him then they got pushed back some of power force.

"OW!" Joey said as he got shocked by the power force. "Damn them!" "Joey! Stop fucking cursing!" Yugi yelled. "His friggin' wand is right there!" He pointed to the corner to the right side of Mahado. "Oh…" Joey said and ran towards it t o pick it up but when he was about to grasp it he felt something whack him in the head.

"RHK!" Joey said as he rubbed his head and shot a glare at Yugi but Yugi shook his head looking shocked. "You better not have dirtied or get bacteria on my wand! You know how many times I have to protect pharaoh-sama from the attacking blender in the kitchen with that wand? Or how many hours I spend to have its perfectly great condition!" Mahado yelled in his little cage.

(Yugi and Joey: O.O ;;)

"Here's your stupid wand!" Joey chucked it at Mahado hoping it would it his head. But then the wand bounced from the force field surrounding Mahado and whacked Joey in the face.

(Joey: )

Yugi sighed and walked over towards the wand and throw it over his head until the wand practically scraped along the wall. "Hey! Watch with the wand!" Mahado said and he ran around the force field trying to whack into it and catch his wand. Mahado caught the wand and chanted a spell on the force field.

"Did it work?" Joey slurred regaining consciousness and getting up on his feet. Mahado cautiously walked and when he pasted his fifth step nothing happened. "Great!" Yugi said, "Now let's get Yamu and Mana out of here!" "What about Kokoro?" Mahado asked. "No. They didn't keep her as prisoner." Joey answered.

"Hmm…then I wonder why only Yamu? I understand they were after my Black Magician powers and Mana's Black Magician Girl's powers….but why Yamu?" Mahado thought to himself. The two boys shrugged and said, "Let's get the hell out of here." Mahado nodded and followed the two boys out.

(In the hallways)

"Ugh…" Vermon, the man who was dueling Atem right now, grunted in pain as Atem's Queen's Knight just attacked him causing him to lose 1500 of his LPs. Vermon: 2500 LPs Atem: 3500 LPs Just then he sensed one of the Spell Binding Circles power force went down. 'What was that!' Vermon demanded. A respond came through Vermon's mind link and said, 'Well it appears the Black Magician escaped.'

'Do we still have the Black Magician Girl?' Vermon asked.

'Yes.' The voice responded.

'Good. Now carry her away…I have a pharaoh to deal with. Make sure you don't leave a trace to Master.'

'Right, sir. Will do'

"Are you going to go or slip your turn so I can get you out of my way and get out of here with my friends?" Vermon snapped back into reality and smirked, "Well….I draw." He drew his card and just stood there silently. Atem wondered for a moment if he was alright supposing he hadn't said anything for a few moments. "Is that the end of your turn?" Vermon looked up and chuckled, "Well….guess I'm done. But know this pharaoh just because you defeated me doesn't mean this is easy. This is actually a test but my master is watching you through 'our' eyes." "Rgh! Enough with the freak 'us' thing I'm done hearing you."

Atem drew his card thinking, 'This guy's a total wimp. I told him he didn't know what he was messing with.' He looked down on his card to see….

"HEY ATEM!" Joey's voice came from behind. Atem turned and saw Mahado was with Yugi and Joey. "Mahado! You alright?" Mahado nodded, "right but c'mon we have to get Yamu and Mana out of here." Atem nodded and looked back at his opponent. "I activate the magic card Play or Rebellion!" He finally said, "it lets me control your Aqua Madoor and attack your LPs, so now I have my Queen's Knight and your Aqua Madoor attack your LPs directly." (Queen's Knight: atk/def: 1500/1600)(Aqua Madoor: atk/def: 1200/2000) (A/n: 1500 + 1200 2700 ….ouch! Over kill…) Vermon just stood there as he was being attacked by both monsters. Atem smirked as he saw Vermon's LPs go down to 0.

"That was easy." He said but then he noticed something was happening to Vermon's body. "Wait….is he on fire!" "Oh no!" Yugi said as he noticed it too. "AHH! CALL THE FIRE DEPTPARMENT!" Joey yelled panicking, "Atem! You were only supposed to defeat him in a duel! Not put him on fire!" "I didn't!" Atem yelled.

"No…" Mahado answered them, "That's some sort of soul….or aura…I can't really put my finger to it. It feels a mixture of both…." They all looked at Vermon's body slowly being eaten away by the flaming soul or aura, unable to move and try to help him but figure it was too late when they saw nothing left but of the cloak and a card.

Atem walked slowly towards the card and picked it up looking at it seeing a picture of a black key on the card. "The hell….?" Atem said in curiosity but Joey ran past him as he saw a door ahead, making Atem shove the card in his butt pocket and ran after Joey. "Yamu!" Joey said and made sure this time he pulled the door and saw Yamu tied down and blinded by a blind fold.

"There might be a barrier." Mahado said, "Let me just do a spell chant…just incase." "Right." Joey nodded as Mahado already started the chant. After Mahado was done Joey just ran towards Yamu and shook her lightly saying, "Yamu, are you alright?" "Joey?" Yamu asked as she felt the rope untied and threw off the blind fold over her eyes.

"Yea" Joey said relived to see her. "Now let's get out of …" Yugi said but then the whole place started to shake violently. "What! An Earthquake?" Yamu shrilled. "No! But let's get out quickly!" Atem said and dashed out of the room leading the others out.

(At Kaiba Land)

"Well Hi there!" Mai said as she saw familiar faces such as Vivian, Varon, and Otogi. "So I seen you guys got invitations huh?" "Yep." Vivian smiled with joy. "This is interesting….dueling in Kaiba land….I feel as if we're outside but we're actually in a dome." "That's so cool though. You wonder how the hell Kaiba does this kind of stuff right?" Otogi replied. Mai shrugged, "It may feel like outside but there's like a navigation sign here and there to different environments….now that will be interesting how different each environment will change."

"Hmm...well Kaiba's going to explain rules soon." "But we came extra early…is that hot Atemu and cute Yugi going to be here? Oh! What about Mahado that hottie?" Vivian asked. Mai laughed nervously, "Well ya see they're going to be coming pretty late. They have problems of their own to deal with ya know?"

Just then she saw Kokoro running through the crowd kind of pushing her way through. "Oh would you look at that?" Varon said, "Kaiba's girlfriend got invited to the tournament I guess…haha! How cute."

Then he looked at Mai and said, "Wish I had a girlfriend eh? I'd take her anywhere she wanted and give her what ever she needed." Mai rolled her eyes and said, "Please Varon….get a life." "I do…I just need to complete it." Mai shook her head.

WA: WHOAA! ALONG CHAPTER! Ugh…so sorry preeps…..R R
