Do I really have to say it?
If so, I own nothing, happy?
Author's Advanced Notes: Hey! Yes I know I haven't started the story yet
but hear me out. I've got some stuff to say upfront that may go over better
towards the beggining rather than the end.
First off, sorry last chapter was so short. I intended it to be longer, but I lost
count of the words and posted it before my 1,700 word standard was met.
Next, individual responces to my reviewers:
Jinn Strider: Thanks for the support once again, and I will try harder to get
my chapters to a good length. I just hope that I don't burn out before my
story is finished.
Aerith Queen of Cetra: Glad to have you on my side of the issue. Frankly,
Yugi will be the one to take Yami down more than a few pegs later on. And
yes, Yugi is the rightful Pharoah, though the cercumstances will indeed be
confusing to most. At least, by my home towns' standards.(sweat drop)
Anyways, hope you enjoy this next chapter, a duel will take place afterward,
hopefully.
Mistress of Shadows: Changing Yugi's look sounds good, but I have no idea
where to start. I'll be putting up a poll on whether to change it or not for the
next two chapters and asking for alteration tips. Please remember his new
disk will be part of his look, see chapter 2 for description. As I said to Jinn, My
chapters will grow in length, hopefully, as the story continues.
Scorceress Shadow Fox: I may try giving Yugi a love interest at a piont when
I can come up with one. Either that, or if anyone has an idea or character
they wish to introduce, I can be flexable with the meeting, if it seems an
ulikely event. (Yes, I will cause chaos effects and crossovers if that's what
needs to be done.) As for the info on Ra, I wish I KNEW THAT SOONER!
I'LL KILL THAT LYING COUSIN OF MINE EVEN IF THE GUY
COULD CRUSH ME IN A NEW YORK MINUTE.
pantpantpant...Ahem...Sorry about that, I tend to write the same things I say
and do normally so pardone the odd writing. As for your own reviews I saw a
piece of your work and rather enjoyed it. I hope you find my review
satisfactory. Also, since you are a mythology buff, Icould usesome ideas fo
Mythological enemies to throw into the mix. And after this rather
embarassing situation, I'd feel better if someone more compitant than I took
up that job.
Ileana DuBaer: Thanks for the words of encoragement on both your
reviews. I must say I'm honored at your praise though I hardly think I'm that
deserving. Irrigardless, thank you, and don't feel shy about adding Ideas of
your own. I hope that you seriously consider that as an option for the
comming announcement.
Finally, I'd like to announce a poll to decide weather Yugi changes his look
or not. This and next chapter will be the duration of time for ideas and
comments to be submitted by either review or regular email if you wish. My
net address is on my profile. All sugestions will be considered for the final
product, but please no more than one vote per person,(that goes for the non-
logged in ones too.) The pole starts today and ends chapter 7 with the final
result and next leg of the story.
Moving on, I think I've waisted enough of your time with such innane babble.
Now on with the show!
Chapter 5
Clam Before the Storm
It had been said that the jorney of a thousand miles starts with the first step. Yugi
certainly felt the truth in those words now. Here he was, starting his new life,
having just beaten his new decks' first opponent, and he already felt tired. Then
again, that could just be the sleepless nights coming back to bite, uh, you fill in
the blank. "Hey Raphael," Yugi said as he looked at his friend for the couch in the
studdy. "What is it Yugi," Raphael replied looking up from his paper work,
'probubly bills,' Yugi thought. "I'm going to take arest, where is my bedroom
again?" Yugi asked tiredly. "First door on your right, past the stairs," Raphael said
with an understanding look. He could only guess how tired his friend must be,
given all that happened today. "Thanks alot," Yugi said as he walked off for a well
deserved nap. Yet, as he walked, his mind wondered to the strange event that
happened earlier today.
Yugi felt a strange warmth envelope him as he walked to the new shelf of cards.
They appeared to be the newest shipment of cards his grandpa's shop had
gotten just before his death. It was suppose to be part of a set that was brand
new and worked with two sets before it. He immediatly tore into them. Each
card seemed to pulse with power, yet Yugi chose cards that seemed aprpreate
for him. The new Elemental Hero monsters were the ones he got the most of.
With all of the possible fusions, and the way the cards seemed built for
teamwork, there really was no competition. But as he had finished, he saw 5
more packs that were out of place. As he opened the green ones, he saw a trio
of cards that were some of the most legendary Level cards in the world. The
name alone seemed to call out to him...Horus.
Right then and there, Yugi put the Horus cards in his deck of heroes. He knew
that they might interfear with his general play, but he felt it only right to have
them. Like they were some part of his deck already with the Legendary Dragons
there too. Plus, the other two packs sported a card that were suppose to have been
discontinued 6 months ago, a card that was called one of the Chaos God cards by
some, but were normally refered to as the Envoys. These cards were said to be
more rare than even the Blue Eyes White Dragons. To think, though, he'd pull
such abolutely amazing cards from what he could only describe as the most
daunting of odds. He knew they would all be of great help to him in the future.
Speeking of the future, he forsaw a long nap as he entered his room and kicked off
his slippers. He crawlled under the covers soon after in his plain blue sleep-wear,
and driffted off into quiet slumber.
At the same time, halfway across the world, Shadi was in his vision of the Gods
of Egypt digesting what they just said. "So," the turban wearing man ventured
slowly, "the boy that was once Atem's host is the true Pharoah?" "Yes Shadi,"
Slifer almost sighed at the man," and furthermore, it is said that there will be one
who will challenge him with the same power, yet this other will comand one of
the Chaos gods as well." "Um, pardone me," Shadi said shifting uncomfortably,
"But who or what are the Chaos Gods?" At this, we can answer that yes, gods can
and do face-vault just like humans tend to do in animie. Mind you, only Slifer and
Obolisk normally indulge in this when feeling so stressed. Ra, though, settled for
a good mega sweat-drop. "Well," Ra said as the other gods, ahem, picked
themselves up," that is an interesting question. Do you know of the Black Luster
Soldier?" "Why yes," Shadi replied guardedly," he was a fighter who's emphasis
was on the aplication of both light and darkness to vanquish ones foes more
effectivly than with either alone." "Of course he knows of him," Obelisk
bellowed now standing. "What he doesn't realize is that Black Luster Slodier's
true power was sealed, and it was his true form that biffited him the title of a
god." "That," Slifer added," and his counterpart had a hand in the order of the
universes' cycle; creation, destruction, and between the 2 of them, rebirth." "So,"
Shadi said nodding his head," The true pharoah will have to face a Chaos god, but
is it the soldier?" "No Shadi, the Soldier will be in the true Pharoah's deck,"
replied Ra," it will be Chaos Emporer Dragon that will reside in the other's deck."
"Is that a bad thing?" Shadi asked in all inocence. Sometimes it just didn't pay for
gods to be immortal, especially when they wanted someone tojust put them out of
their missery.
Not 3 seconds later, Shadi found himself back in the room just as he left it but
with words burned on the front page with a picture of him next to it. It read as
follows:
World's dimmest mortal found! Experts at a loss as to how one can function on
such little common sence.
Shadi's only comment was this," The ways of the gods are strange," before
returning to the sports section.
As morning arived, little Yugi was already up, and making his way down for
breakfast. As he arrived in the dining hall, he found Raphael sitting with a cup of
tea along with a plate of eggs sausage and toast. But as Yugi looked on to the
table, well, his jaw dropped in shock. The array of foods, ranging from crisp
bacon, to mouthwatering pancakes, to piles of french toast(freedome toast, so sue
me I call it french out of habbit), to the part he could not take his eyes off of.
Imagine the biggest omlet(sp?) in your life, then double in size. Yugi, to his
credit, restrianed himself from breaking the table as he lept, fork-and-knife-first,
into the omlet, eating at super Goku speeds. Need less to say this elected a
reaction from Raphael, just not what you'd expect. "I've got to make sure I get the
shot of him when he sees the Waffuls and Talor Ham," the man said as he
restrianed a chortle as he took out a camera, so he could share this moment with
Valon. And to thinkValon thoughthe was the only one to eat like an animie
character.
End Chapter
Author's note:
Yes, their's a quick one down here too. i just wanted to say this was humor
becuase, hey, I'm told I have a sense of humor. Though some would debate
that fact, lety me know what you thought. Also, I'm still looking for other's
who want an OC of their own to join the fun if they want. So feel free to send
deck specs to help build the NEW gang for Yugi. Plus I still take constructive
critisism. Thanks again. Later Days!
