I really wish I owned Yu-Gi-Oh but no I don't.


Valon and Mixie returned back to what Mixie called 'HQ' and waited for the result of Rafael's duel.

Paradius Company…where Mixie would tend to Valon's injured arm and place it into a sling during their wait.

And then it happened….

They got the news of the winner.

"Oh crikey…." Valon began.

"Rafael's not gonna like that." Mixie agreed.

"I vote you tell him."
"Why me?"

"I'm injured and if he's angry; he's less likely to kill you."

"So you want to throw me in the firing line!"

"No well yeah…but….you can hide behind Alister." He told her.
"What about hiding behind you?" She asked dryly

"Again I'm injured and even if I wasn't…no way…not in a million years."
"I feel loved."

Then the door opened.

"Mission accomplished Master the strongest soul on earth has now been captured..." Rafael announced.

"Ah yes the Pharaoh…" Dartz smiled. "Unfortunately you failed once again."

"He's right." Mixie said as Valon pushed her out into the light (one armed) following closely behind her. "The soul of the Pharaoh is still out there Rafael…" She told him.

The screen lit up behind them with an image of the room Mixie dubbed 'The alter of the Orichalcos Serpents' pretty dark and mysterious huh?

Because God knows what it's really called.

"Watch and learn." Dartz told them. "The Pharaoh's spirit inhabits the spirit of a young man….what we have here in a clear case of mistaken identity."

"Instead of the Pharaoh…you got the soul of Yugi Muto." Mixie told him.

"I still don't understand." Rafael said.
"Then you need to clean out your ears you over-sized baboon!" Dartz snapped.

"Both spirits inhabit one body! Get it? You captured the wrong soul!"

"But how? I am pretty sure I was duelling the Pharaoh! So the Orichalcos should have sealed him."
"Well he got away!" Dartz replied. "There's no one to blame but yourself!"

"I can fix this….if you'll let me." Rafael stated bowing.

"Let's go!" Weevil shouted.
"What? Uh okay!" Rex Raptor agreed running forward and kneeling before Dartz.

"If I might suggest something sir?" Weevil asked.

"Where they always here?" Mixie whispered to Valon who shrugged.

"Who are these two?" Dartz asked.

"Haven't you heard of us? Former regional duel monster champions?"

"No." Mixie told them.
"They're just a couple of wannabe duellists who followed us here they've probably never even played the game!" Rafael said.

"NEVER PLAYED THE GAME!"

"WANNABES? We're great duellists. But…we came here to get even better!"
"Yugi and his friends have been making fools of us for years!"

"I can see why." Mixie whispered turning her head away scratching the back of it as they quickly glared at her.

"Before they showed up we ruled the duels! But lately we're just the butt of everyone's jokes!" Weevil screeched.

"No one likes being a butt!" Rex agreed.

"Uh…what he means is! We want nothing more then to have our revenge! So please Mr Dartz sir! Share your duelling secrets with us and I promise we'll help you get what you want!" Weevil begged. Literally on his knees; he begged.

"Please!"

"It won't be easy! The Pharaoh and his little friends wield the power of the legendary dragons! How do you intend to fight against cards like those?" Dartz asked.

"That's exactly why we need your help!"

"Yeah! We…we need the Seal of Orichalcos!"

"Before I share my power with you. I have to make sure your worthy!"

"Just let us prove it!"

"We'll do anything!"

"Very well." Dartz stated taking out two duel monster cards and throwing it at them.

They were blank.

"Huh?"

"What is this some kind of joke?"
"Hey we're serious about this!"
"That makes three of us." Dartz said and two glowing crystals appeared floating in the air.

"What's that?" Weevil asked.

"Your test these crystals are fragments of the Orichalcos stone and they will activate your cards."
"But I stink at tests! No fair!"

"All you have to do is hold the fragments in your hands. If they deem you worthy of their power you will have to be able to grasp them but if they don't…you will have to pay the price by offering up your very souls to the Great Leviathan."
"Are you nuts?" They shouted.

"Told you these guys are weak." Rafael said.

"Weak! Huh! Bring on the tests!"

"We're going to let some glowing rocks stand in our way of becoming champion duellists!"
"Let's do this!"

They reached out….

"I can't grab the stone!" Rex shouted two minutes later, the light from the fragments shot around the room at they attempted to get the stones; pushing their arms back.

It irritated Mixie's eyes.

"Of course not." Valon said.

"These twerps aren't worthy. Not that I'm surprised." Alistair huffed.

"Maybe we should rethink the whole joining the bad guy idea!" Rex shouted at Weevil.

"No! If you fail this test you're gonna be a loser your whole life Rex! Now GET THAT ROCK!"

"Weevil…! We're close!"
"Just a little further!"
Suddenly the light dispersed and the two 'twerps' as Alistair put it stood their grasping a fragment of the Orichalcos each.

"What?"

"Those nimrods actually past the test!" Alistair said.

And the seal appeared on their blank cards.

"Now we can play the Seal of Orichalcos!"
"We'll be unstoppable!" Rex agreed.

"Congratulations and welcome to our family…."
The other four reluctantly showed them to Mixie's favourite place in the building.

The Card Room.

"All right twerps. Time to build your new decks. We've assembled every duel monster's card ever produced have a party." Rafael told them.

"We've hit the mother lowed!"

"We can take anything right?"
"Anything, except the Egyptian God Cards." Valon told them.

"Hey what do you mean no God Cards?" Weevil screeched.

"Look if these cards aren't good enough for you then use your own deck!" Alistair told them.

"Upon further investigation these are perfect!" Weevil quickly said.

"King of Games eat your heart out!" Rex agreed.

"Now choose wisely! You've a very important task. Deliver to me the soul of the Pharaoh and his companion young Joseph Wheeler. The Orichalcos is with you, use it correctly and victory is yours."

They kneeled.

"Yes sir."

"Well, let's see how this plays out shall we?" Valon said to Mixie who nodded slowly.

"Yeah."

This couldn't end well…


See you next time!
