The long awaited return! I know, I've been gone for so long. I'm sorry. Anyway, I'm back now, (who knows for how long) and here is the next chapter: )

Disclamer: Sadly, I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho or Yu-Gi-Oh or any of the characters.

The Portal Between Two Worlds

By Ria Minamino

4th element

Yugi, Bakura, Yusuke and Kuwabara had just arrived at their room in Kaiba's huge duelist's mansion. Now they needed to meet with Kaiba to see exactly what he needed then to come here for.

"Okay, let's go see if the butler can tell us where Kaiba is," Yugi suggested.

"Yeah, we can unpack once we get back." Bakura agreed.

Everyone filed out of the room.

"Uh, I hope one of you remembers how to get back out, 'cause the only thing I remember is that it was a long way to this room," Kuwabara said.

"Oh, yeah I think I can remember," Yugi said hopefully. "I know we took a turn here," Yugi lead everyone.

After a minute, Yugi got a little unsure. "I think we came through here..."

"You think? I don't know about you guys, but I don't recognize any of this." Yusuke said, looking around.

"I'm really sorry you guys, I thought I knew where we came from..." Yugi apologized.

"Maybe we should go back to our room..." Bakura said, already starting to go back.

Everyone followed. As they were going back, one of the doors in the hallway was ajar and Bakura peeked in. No one was in it the large room. There was a desk with papers scattered about it. "Hey you guys," Bakura called everyone over, "do you see that? That paper says 'inter-dimensional breach' on it!"

"Maybe Kaiba really is behind the portal!" Yugi gasped, letting himself into the room.

Everyone else followed. They started looking through the papers.

"Inter-Dimensional Breaching for Dummies! What?" Yusuke read out loud. "This is crazy!"

"You know, I could have you arrested for trespassing right now."

Everyone turned to see Kaiba standing in the doorway.

"W-we were just trying to find you," Yugi tried to explain.

"Well you've got me now, what do you want?" Kaiba said.

"I want to know why I'm here and" Yugi was interrupted.

"Why don't we talk in a different room? My office isn't the place for you four." (Yay, Kaiba can count!) Kaiba lead them out.

Once getting into a different room, Kaiba let Yugi continue.

"Well first I'd like to know why you asked me to come here," Yugi said.

"Because I want you to participate in the tournament of course," Kaiba smiled strangely.

"But why am I a special guest?" Yugi asked.

"Oh you'll see," Kaiba said mysteriously.

Everyone was a little freaked out now.

"Is that all?" Kaiba asked.

"Uh, yeah." Yugi and everyone walked out of the room.

As they were walking away, Kaiba called to them, "Be up and in the front room by seven tomorrow!"

"What do you think is gonna happen?" Yusuke asked once they were out of hearing distance.

"I don't know. Honestly, I'm a little worried. We've been set up in some pretty weird traps before, so I don't know." Yugi answered.

Everyone was silent in thought on their way back to the room.
