A/N: Yay I'm back and with another chapter


Chapter 6: He Is Released

"Hmm what an interesting exhibit, I didn't know that Duel Monsters was based on 3000 year old Egyptian sorcery." A boy said near Yugi and Rebecca.

He was about 5'6" and he had black hair with a red head band covering the roots at the top of his forehead and blood red eyes, he was wearing a dark red cape, and black shirt and matching black pants, and boots.

Yugi couldn't help himself he had to look over at this boy who seemed do interested in the Egyptian tablet. He noticed that he had a duel disk attached to his arm.

"What are you looking at Yugi?" Rebecca asked as she looked over at the boy as well. "You're not thinking about dueling him, are you Yugi." She added after seeing the duel disk.

"No, not at all...At least not now." Yugi quickly replied waving his arms.

"What?" The boy said turning to face them. "Are you talking about me?" He asked pointing at himself.

"So what if we were, this is a private conversation, so please butt out." Rebecca said glaring at him.

"I'm sorry." He said looking down at them when he noticed Yugi's duel disk, "Hey are you in the tournament?"

"Yes, I am." Yugi said with smile.

"Excuse me." Rebecca said, she turned to Yugi and said, "He can't duel right now, he's showing me the museum."

"Oh, well. My name is Vincent Desmont, its nice to meet you..." Vincent said reaching down to Yugi.

"I'm Yugi Motou." Yugi said shaking his hand.

"And I'm Rebecca Hawkins." She said turning away from Vincent.

"Well, I have to go now, I hope to see you again." Vincent said as he looked at his watch.

"Same here." Yugi said waving to Vincent as he walked away.

'So, I have found the Millennium Puzzle.' Vincent thought to himself as he walked away from the museum's entrance. "I have to figure some way to aquire it." He whispered to himself.

Vincent had been walking down the street for quite a while, when he noticed a cloaked figure walking into an alley. 'I wonder who that could be.' He thought as he began to follow the figure.

"Why do you follow me?" The figure asked as Vincent entered the alley.

"Who are you?" Vincent asked.

"I am Shadi, Keeper of the Millennium Items, I am here because an item has been stolen." Shadi said.

"What item was stolen?" Vincent asked.

"The Rod was stolen from the one who it had been entrusted to." Shadi said lifting his Millennium Key.

"What are you doing?" Vincent asked taking a step away from Shadi.

"I have a feeling you are not to be trusted, I will examine your mind and see what you know." Shadi said taking few steps toward Vincent.

Vincent froze on the spot and remained there as Shadi drew closer, until the Key came in contact with Vincent's forehead.

Shadi was standing in a large and dimly lit room, the walls were an ancient stone, golden in color but undecorated with the exception of a few carvings of Duel Monsters, and the two torches at each corner, the two in the southwest corner were extinguished. Shadi looked to his left then to his right but there wasn't much to see.

"Why is this place so vacant?" Shadi said as he started to walk around the chamber, but after he reached the dark corner he saw a well rusted, ancient steel door with a massive locking mechanism that seemed as if it were about to fall off the door.

He extended a hand and touched the door's handle only to draw back his hand with an anguished cry of pain, the door was as cold as the freezing North Atlantic waters, but it was also as hot as the fire that spewed from the mouth of an erupting volcano, this was not possible for there is no way for an object to be subject to both conditions simultaneously. After examining the lock he noticed that the Millennium Key might unlock it, so he took hold of his Millennium Key and unlocked the door, then he slowly extended his hand once again but the door was cool but not freezing. Shadi pushed on the door, but the door resisted him. He push the door once again with a little more force and the door slowly opened, when Shadi stared into the room all he saw was darkness suddenly flooded the room knocking Shadi to the floor.

Shadi opened his eyes and was surprised to find himself in total chaos. He was floating freely, when suddenly what appeared to be Duel Monster cards zoomed past his head along with the images with the of the Millennium Items.

"I am finally free! What are you doing in my domain?" A booming voice called out from amidst the chaos.

"Who are you, show yourself!" Shadi said quickly turning his head every direction he could to find the owner of the voice.

"I need not answer you, pathetic mortal. Leave this place at once!" The voice barked as Shadi was struck with what felt like a bolt of lightning.

"I will not leave, I now know it was you who stole the Rod and are now planing to steal the Puzzle from the boy, Yugi. Now I ask once again. Who are you?" Shadi responded as he slowly rotated, for it was difficult to stand when there was no ground on which to do so.

"You are persistent and most irritating, I will not answer you, now do as I commanded and leave this place. Before I change my mind and send you to the shadow realm." The voice said sounding very irritated.

It sounded as if it were shifting from one place to another, much like the surroundings the voice seemed to always be moving, it never sounded as if it were coming from one place for long.

"What is it you seek to accomplish?" Shadi cried out to the chaos as everything swirled around him.

"My plans are none of your business, now I will only repeat myself once more. LEAVE MY DOMAIN AT ONCE!" The voice cried one last time as Shadi was forced out of Vincent's mind and sent flying into the wall of the alley.

Shadi's vision started to become distorted as he slid down the wall, he saw Vincent quickly run out onto the main street and into a small crowd that slowly made its way past, before he lost consciousness.

Vincent ran as fast as he could without looking back at the alley. 'What did he do to me?' Vincent thought as he ran. '

'He released me!' A voice in the back of Vincent's mind answered.

Vincent came to a sudden stop in the middle of a crosswalk, 'Who are you?' Vincent asked the new voice.

'I am your master and soon to be the master of the worlds!' The voice said in a cruel tone.

Avatar pulls a big shiny red button out of his pocket and throws it to Vincent before running like mad.

Vincent: Oh a shiny red button I wonder what this does, I think I'll press it.

Vincent tosses the button on the ground.
