Today was the first day of the Duel Tournament and Kagome was ready...ish. The game, while she had enjoyed it , brought on painful memories. The girl clutched the ring around her neck, willing away any unhappy thoughts. Kagome chose not to dwell on the past. Today was a day to spend with her family and that's exactly what she was gonna do .
Yugi and the Yami made their way to the tournament in a companionable silence, the sunlight casting a faint glint off of Yami's ring that only he and Yugi could see. The duo still knew nothing about the piece of jewelry. Yami had gone back into the puzzle to search for the soul room where he had first seen the ring, but the room was gone. All they knew was that the ring was an important piece of the pharaoh's life in the past. An important part that seemed to be mocking him. The ring refused to come off despite how hard he tried. Not only that , but when Yugi relinquished hold of his body to the spirit, the ring would appear on his finger. This caused some problems witht the tabloids. The press was practically hounding him over the significance of the new piece of jewelry. As if fans didn't bother him enough as it is. Though duo continued their journey through the crowds , looking for an opponent or battle to spectate.
"I summon the Servant Toad in Defense Mode!"
The duo stopped to look over at the voice that had called out the strange Duel Monster. They moved forward to see a beautiful girl with blue-black hair in a long ponytail and sapphire blue eyes. The girl wore a long sleeved white dress shirt with a blue button down suit vest, the sleeves of her shirt rolled up to her elbows. She had on a blue pleated miniskirt and white over the knee socks with a pair of black converse on her feet. On the field stood two duel monsters . The first one was a young girl wearing a checkered kimono and a side ponytail. The child was grinning wildly at the monster her mistress had summoned. Standing next to the girl was a toad-like imp carrying a two headed staff. The imp was holding his staff in a defensive position with an irritated look on its face . Neither monsters had high defence points .On the other side of the field was large , ogre like monster with a spiked club and an attack stat of 1000 .Things were not looking good for the girl and were about to get worse as the opposing duelist command the monster to attack the small female duel monster.
"Oh no you don't", the small female duelist called out , a determined looked on her delicate features," I activate the Servant Toad's special ability. If he is summoned in defense mode with Demon's ward on the field , he can take on any attack directed towards her."
The imp jump infront of the child just as the ogre swung his club , shattering upon impact. The female duelist grunted as her life points dropped by 200 , leaving her with only 800 life points left. She didn't look worried though. In fact she looked happy if only a little pained at the destruction of her moster as her opponent ended his turn.
"I activate the Demon's Ward special ability. If she is in danger and her loyal servant takes a hit for her , by sacrificing 100 of her attack points , I can special summon the Ice Prince himself , The Lord of the West", the girl cried out in triumph . As the card appeared on the field , a menancing aura encompassed the area , forcing the spectators and the ogre to take a step back. The small child on the field though only ran towards the card as a figure began to emerge from it. Out of the light stepped out a young man with long silvery-white hair that nearly touched the ground. He a fine white kimono and hakamas with a red hexagonal flower on his left collar and sleeve. His ballooned hakamas were tucked into polished black boots. On top of the outfit he wore a breast plate with a spiked ridge on his shoulder. The look was completed with three sheathed swords at his side. Piercing gold eyes looked down upon his opponent , almost daring him to touch his wards.
As Yugi and Yami watched the duel monster await his masters commands , Yami couldn't help but think that the young lord was alive. The way he watched his opponent while petting the small girl's head seemed to aware of his surroundings. And if the wasn't enough the carefully veiled nod towards his master was definitely a sign. That was no ordinary monster.
"Lord of the West, chop that monster down to size!"
The duel monster smirked before raising one of his clawed hands , the nails glowing an acidic green. The man leapt forward , landing gracefully in front his prey. He then began to spin as though he were a ballerina, the acidic glow of his claws expanding into a whip that viciously tore into his enemy before it desintergrated , taking the rest of its master's life points with it.
The crowd was in shock. They barely registered what happened before them. The girl had been loosing. Now all of a sudden she won. But they couldn't deny it . Her name was on the holograms winner spot.
Yami and Yugi stared in awe . Yugi was babbling something the his partner didn't hear. Kagome, huh. So that was her name. He was so caught up in his thoughts , he didn't even notice when the rest of the gang surrounded his aibou .
"Ay Yugi, who is that chick", a Brooklyn accent broke him out of his reverie. The spirit looked over at his partner's close friend , Joey Wheeler. Joey watched the girl who was now swarmed by the spectators of her match , offers for trade of her cards loud and clear.
'Her name's Kagome. Why you ask Joey?", the much shorter male questioned his friend.
"Because Yug,", Joey said while popping his collar,"she looks like she needs a prince charming."
The blonde New Yorker pushed his way throught the crowd to reach the petite girl at the center. But before he could reach her , a tall male with brown hair and a white trench coat wrapped the girl in a protective embrace before yelling and effectively silencing the crowd:
"Alright losers. Get away from my sister!"
