Hello my fellow readers, writers, and people who clicked on this because you thought it was a video I'm back with another new chapter. In this chapter we're going to be having the first lesson with the millennium items. The first lesson will be learning about the shadow realm and a duel in said shadow realm and they will be there dueling against each other in the shadow realm.

Why are they going to be dueling in the shadow realm well the reason for this is because they have to be able to manage the pain from a shadow game where the damage is real. I can't think of anything to add to this as of now but if I think of something by the end of the chapter I'll be putting in an author's note below so without further ado let's get this show on the road.

"Talking"

"Thought"

"Yelling"

Harry's P.O.V

I woke up with Alexis in my arms and after getting ready I sent a message to the rest of the wielders of the millennium items minus Chazz since he was possessed by Marik, to meet us at the docks for the first stage of training. After waiting about 20 minutes since I was sure Syrus had to wake Jaden up, and not to mention the other wielders would take at least that long to get there.

After the 20 minute wait I had Alexis grab onto my shoulder and I teleported us there with the appearation that I had managed to get a hang of after being thrown into this muggle world. I saw that everyone was there including Emily, and Haruko and I walked over to them and said "what are you two doing here."

Emily said "Well since I know about the millennium items and Akiko told Haruko about the problem this school is facing she signed up and you said that I would be able to help in anyway right." I said "Well yeah but this part of the training is too dangerous for you" and Emily said "I'm sure we can go through it" and I said "no you two are staying here until this stage of training is over."

I was about to seal them inside a force field that could be walked into by anyone from the outside but only select individuals could walk out of it when Alexis placed her hand on my shoulder. I looked at her and she said "I say if they think they can handle it that we let them come so they can see how intense the training will be."

I thought about what Alexis had said at first and eventually sighed and said "if anything happens to them then you're responsible for their well-being." She said "that sounds fair" and I walked in front of everyone including the millennium item guardians. I said "okay I'm not going to sugar coat this the training we're going to be starting off with is going to be putting a major strain on your bodies.

However I can almost certainly guarantee that when the final battle comes you're going to be thanking me for putting you through this intensive training. For this training we're going to be going to the shadow realm which means any damage you take to your life points in a duel is going to be real damage but like I said you're going to thank me since the being possessing Chazz finds entrainment in shadow gaming people left and right."

Jaden spoke up and said "wait I thought the shadow realm didn't exist" and I said "you also thought the same thing about the millennium items." He said "good point" and the millennium puzzle activated and I put my hand out to my left. "this portal will take us to the shadow realm and the sooner we start training the sooner we get done."

They all started walking toward the portal but Syrus said "I don't see anything on the other side of the portal except complete darkness" and I said "that's because the shadow realm holds most of the negative energy in the universe. While some of it slips out to the world we know sometimes most of it stays in the shadow realm so who wants to go first."

They were mumbling for a moment before Jaden said "I will" and he walked toward the portal until he was right in front of it and he just jumped in. a few moments after that everyone else went through with me and Alexis going last since the portal would close behind us. As we got there I saw that everyone else was surrounded by some sort of dark blobs and just as I was about to go help them I heard a voice behind myself and Alexis.

"Vile shadow creatures be gone" and I turned around and saw that it was the spirit of the Pharaoh that had shared Yugi's body until the duel that sent him to the afterlife. He said "good to see you again Harry" and I said "yeah and thanks for the millennium items by the way" and he said "no problem Marik needs to be stopped."

Just as I was about to start the training I had a thought "question since you have more experience than most people over the shadow realm would you like to be in charge of the training." He said "oh no my time has passed it is now your time to lead however I will keep the shadow creatures from attacking you."

I said "thanks for that" and I walked toward the others and said "okay so what does everyone think of the shadow realm" and Jaden said "this place is awesome in fact it kind of reminds me of the end of the duel with the one using the fake millennium puzzle." I said "so you have had a little experience with real shadow games before in that case would you like to be useful in my demonstration."

He said "sure" and I said "okay then ready your duel disk" and he did so and placed his deck in it and drew his first five cards. I summoned mine with my deck already loaded up and he said "man I will never get over how cool that is" and I said "I'll make the first move this time." I drew and said "first I activate the field spell card magical citadel of Endymion and now I summon Gemini elf to the field in attack mode.

I conclude my turn by placing one card face down on the field" and he drew and said "I summon elemental hero prisma to the field in attack mode and activate his effect. By showing you one fusion monster in my extra deck then and sending one of the monsters listed on that card to the grave prisma is treated as the name of the monster I send to the graveyard."

He showed me elemental hero tempest and send Sparkman to his graveyard and said "now I activate polymerization to fuse prisma who is treated as Sparkman, avian, and bubbleman together in order to form elemental hero tempest in attack mode. Now tempest attack his Gemini elf" and I said "you triggered my trap card negate attack which stops your attack and ends your battle phase."

He said "I have no choice but to end my turn" and I drew and said "I summon skilled white magician in attack mode and activate the spell card magician's unite which raises the attack points of one of my monsters until it's attack points are at 3000. The only cost I have to pay is I can only attack with the monster that has 3000 attack points this turn.

Now skilled white magician attack his elemental hero tempest" and tempest was destroyed and his life points dropped to 3800. I said I'll end my turn by activating skilled white magician's effect which lets me send him to the graveyard to summon a buster blader from my hand, deck or graveyard." Jaden then said "wait correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't skilled white magician's effect require three counters."

I said "that is correct" and he said "well according to my count skilled white magician only has 1 counter" and I said "that is very observant" and his face paled and he said "your magical citadel lets you use any counters on it as a tribute." I said "yes I move the two counters from my magical citadel to my skilled white magician and then send him to the graveyard to summon a buster blader in attack mode.

Even though it doesn't matter right at this moment it doesn't matter my buster blader gains 500 attack points for each dragon type monster on the field or the graveyard and with that I end my turn." He drew and said "I activate fusion recovery which lets me add a polymerization and a monster I used to summon tempest back to my hand and I choose Sparkman.

Now I activate the spell card polymerization which lets me fuse elemental heroes Sparkman and clayman in order to form elemental hero Gaia in attack mode. Now I activate his special effect which lets him steal half of one of your monsters attack points and add them to his own for this turn only and I choose buster blader."

Now Gaia attack his buster blader" and buster blader was destroyed and my life points dropped to 1800 and he said "I end my turn with one card face down" and Gaia's attack points went back to their original 2200. I drew and said "I activate the spell card pot of greed which lets me draw two more cards and next I summon silent magician to the field in attack mode.

Now I activate another effect of my magical citadel which for each spell counter I remove from it one monster I choose gains 200 attack points for each. I remove two counters from my magical citadel and Gemini elf gains 400 attack points. Now Gemini elf attack his Gaia" and his Gaia was destroyed and his life points dropped to 3700.

"Now silent magician attack his life points directly" and his life points dropped further to 2700 and I said "I end my turn." He drew and said "I summon elemental hero blazeman" and I interrupted "you triggered my trap card trap hole which since your monster has more than 1000 attack points he is automatically destroyed."

He said "well I guess all I can do is end my turn" and I drew and said "I activate the spell card monster reborn to bring back elemental hero tempest from your graveyard. Now I sacrifice my three monsters to summon my Egyptian god card the winged dragon of Ra in attack mode." He said "it's in its sphere form but I know that you know the chant."

I said "indeed all mighty protector of the sun and sky I beg of thee please heed my cry transform thyself from orb of light and bring me victory in this fight. I beseech thee grace our humble game but first I shall all out thy name winged dragon of Ra arise." The winged dragon of Ra appeared in all his glory with the attack power of 6200.

"Normally I would attack directly with the winged dragon of Ra but an attack by him in the shadow realm would kill you I'll end my turn." He drew and said "I activate polymerization to fuse together elemental heroes, lady heat and Sparkman to form elemental hero nova master in attack mode" and I said "why did you put him in attack mode."

Jaden said "I know there are obstacles that I can't overcome and your Egyptian god card is one of them so I admit defeat I end my turn" and I drew and said "winged dragon of Ra attack his nova master and finish this duel." nova master was destroyed and his life points dropped to zero and before his disappeared Ra gave an almighty roar to approval being on the winning side.

Yet another chapter done and I believe this will be the one where most people will be glad to see because it marks the beginning of the training saga. The way I'm planning this out is one day they will be in the shadow realm dueling so they can get use to the pain from attacks from the monsters. The next day Harry will be having one on one session with everyone

The point of these one on one sessions will be so he can teach them not only the histories of the millennium items but how to control the millennium item that chose them as well. Until next time this is Diamondholder signing off.
