Chapter Summary:

Seto Kaiba sat on his desk massaging his forehead. Those corporate fools have been trying to take over Kaiba Corp for ages and are finally getting through. And to top that off there has been a huge news report about him being beaten yet again by Minako Moto. Being beaten by Yugi was bad enough but he was being beaten by his little sister who has one year younger than Kaiba and was a GIRL! Not that he had anything against girls. Some of them were hot. Take Minako for example. But he was the great Seto Kaiba. A girl couldn't beat him! Kaiba banged his desk with his fist making the neat set-up of the table move about.

"Mr. Kaiba?" a knock on his door was heard and a scared voice was heard seeping under the door.

"What is it!? I specifically told everyone that no-one was to disturb me!" he replied angrily.

"Well there is a man here who has something for you."

"Well bring it up here!"

"He wont give it to us. We were told that he was to hand it to you personally. We told him that you did not want to be disturbed and we even called Mr. Mokuba but he still would not give in." the voice quivered a bit.

Kaiba sighed and the scrape of his chair on the floor was followed by his footsteps to the door. He opened it and followed the scared maid down the extravagant double staircase and into the foyer of his mansion. The maid bobbed her head slightly and walked away quickly towards the kitchen.

Kaiba walked towards the informal sitting room where his little brother was trying to persuade the man to give him the package.

"My brother's really busy. He's not going to be happy if he is disturbed. Just give it to me and you can go on your way. Please?"

Kaiba cleared his throat and advanced forward.

"Oh hey big bro." Mokuba said and upon seeing Kaiba's face, turned and faced the man and whispered " I told you so."

"What do you want?" Kaiba asked while the man jumped up and walked towards him.

"This is a package for you from my employer. It is a new duelling tournament that only the elite are invited to. You would do well not to miss it and all the information is in the package."

Kaiba looked at the bulky brown paper package in his hands. He turned it over and took no notice of the man who was leaving the room.

"He came at 9:00 at night to give us a package, inviting us to go to a duelling tournament?" Mokuba asked quizzically. "Must be a pretty good tournament."

"Yeah, especially when Yugi and Minako Moto are invited." Kaiba said, reading the first few sentences of the letter that was in the package while sitting down on his black and silver sofa with a leather finish.

"Read it out! Please big bro?" Mokuba asked excitedly, settling down next to his bog brother and leaning on his shoulder to look at the letter.

"Greetings to you Mr Seto Kaiba." Kaiba began reading in his deep, strong voice. "You have been invited to the world's newest and best duelling tournament. This tournament is the future battle style of duelling and will revolutionise the world. Only a few selected people are called up such as yourself, Mr Moto and Miss Moto to experience this first hand. What you will experience on my secluded island will make your hair stand up. It may either be scary or exciting. Good or bad. Only you can choose your reaction. I have created a masterpiece. Who am I you ask and what is this amazing duelling system? All in due time. My name is Credo and I am the sole creator and master of this system.

To many people, the virtual holograms of our duelling cards are almost real but in my island, they are real. Instead of virtual holograms, the machine inside your package will make them real.

Kaiba looked around and scoffed. "What is this, - "

" – Jurassic Park?" Mina snorted. She was lying on Yugi's bed reading out the letter. Yugi stuck his head out of his on-suite bathroom, his hair ruffled. "Keep reading." He told her.

"All right." Mina settled down and began to continue reading. 'When you scan your card into the machine it will immediately summon your monster in flesh and blood. That is why I have only chosen the elite of the duelling community. Not many will be able to handle the gruesome battles of their monsters being eaten and torn at or blown up.

Look in your package and pull out your summoning machine. This is called an 'Ankh' and you will have it in you at times. It will lock onto your arm when you put on and will take the shape of what you are on the inside. Do not ask how or why because that will not be told. Your duels will be broadcasted around the world and the aim of your battling is to make it to the castle at the end of the battle. Then the people who have made it there will fight. The person who is the winner at the end will get the grand prize.'

Mina and Yugi looked at each other and then at each others respective packages. They cautiously opened up the flap of their packages and took out their 'Ankhs.' At first, both ankhs were the shape of an Egyptian 'ankh' (A/N. Its sort of like a cross with a circle at the end of it.) It was a bright gold colour and had a latch-like think that would clip around your arm. Mina lifted it up and clipped it onto her left arm and the ankh glowed. Yugi lurched forward and tried to get the machine of her but it was latched on hard. The machine glowed brighter and brighter until Yugi and Mina had to cover their eyes. When they opened their eyes, the ankh on Mina's hand had gone. In its place was a thing that looked like a dragon. It was curled up longitudinally on her arm, its spiked tail curling around her fore-arm muscles and ending at the tip of her shoulder and the top of its black nose was touching the knuckle of her middle finger. It was pitch black except for its spikes and underbelly which was blood red. Its yellow eyes gleamed in the light. It looked sort of like a snake wound round her whole arm. It's grey wings jutted out of its back and when Mina touched them they sprung open showing a wide expanse of space where cards were meant to be placed.

Yugi then took his up and eagerly put it on his arm. When it latched onto the part above his wrist, the same thing happened. A bright light shone and when it had dimmed they saw that Yugi had a different shape on his arm. It was in the shape of the all-seeing eye that is on every millennium item. When he pressed the middle of the eye, it opened up to spaces where he could put his cards. Yugi turned to Mina.

"What - "

" – just happened?"

Kaiba had just put on his ankh and it had changed into a white and blue dragon. (A/N. It like Mina's except Mina's is a black and red dragon while Kaiba's is his trade-mark monster Blue Eyes White Dragon.) Mokuba was examining Kaiba's ankh carefully and marvelling at its work.

"How did this guy do that?" he asked excitedly.

"I don't know but I don't trust him." Kaiba replied before going on to read the rest of the letter.

'There is a plane waiting for you at the Japan International Airport at gate 2. You will be allowed to take a friend each - '

"Can I come big bro? Please? Please!?" Mokuba pleaded.

"I don't know if we are even going yet. Anyway let me continue." Kaiba said in the tone he only used for his brother. He loved his brother although he almost never let it show. He never ever used that tone with anybody else. Most of the time he just growled or talked sarcastically but when he talked with his little brother, he had a touch of humour and love in it.

' – on the plane and you will be flown to a secluded airport where you will take a security boat to the island I have created just for this. Meet at the Japan International Airport, Gate 2 at 8:00pm on the 19th of March. My assistant Kimomo will meet you there and give you everything you need. All you need to do to verify that you are invited is shine the starting card that is in the package at her.

All of you will be there, I know it and I will see you at the end.

Credo

Sole Creator and manager of Live Duel Island.'

"A chance to beat Yugi and his sister at their own game. Nothing can be stronger than my blue eyes especially when it is going to come alive. Mokuba, start packing your bags. Kaiba announced.

"19th of March? That's in 5 days. That leaves us just enough time to arrange things with Grandpa, school, packing and arranging my strategy." Mina concluded.

"So you gonna go?"

"Defiantly. Like I'm gonna miss a chance to see my babies come alive. That and I can kick Kaiba's ass again."

Yugi laughed. "Alright. When we go to school tomorrow, we'll find Joey and the others and see whether they're coming or not. And seeing that we can take one friend each, that's the whole gang! I'll take Tea, you take Serenity, Joey will take Tristan and Mai can … well she can take who she wants."

" 'Kay. Night." Mina said pulling herself out of Yugi's bed and out into her room., There she settled into her own warm bed and closed her eyes. Sleep soon drifted into her and she was out like a light.

"Joey! Hey Joey! Wait up!" Mina called out impatiently. Joey turned and stopped waiting for her to catch up.

" 'Ello Moto! The others are already out at the usual spot in the food court. I thought I was going to be the last one there? What took you so long?"

"Professor McCillon kept us in with his usual monotone about the human anatomy again. What about you?"

"I had to finish off my paper about the history of the vitreus humor and how it was discovered."

"Ok. Wait how are you doing that now? Didn't we learn that in high school? Joey, we are now in university"

"Yeah, yeah I know. I decided to take an easy class so I could get a quick score."

Mina shook her head at him before they both joined the others outside.

" Sup you guys?"

"Talking about what we're gonna do at that tournament thing. All of them said they were coming except we still haven't got an answer from you, Joey." Tristan answered back.

"Yeah, I'm coming. I'm not going to lose this time to you though Yuge"

"Not expecting you to. Anyway, we're all going to meet at the Airport and head of together right?" Yugi administrated.

"Yup! Oh Hey! What did your ankh thingy's change into?" Mina asked curiously.

" A sword. And I talked to Mai this morning. Hers changed into a dream catcher sort of shape. Dunno why though. What 'bout you guys?" Joey inquired.

"A Black and Red Dragon"

"The Great Eye."

Just as they were about to go on a mad rush of students from all ages started to get up and file off.

"Hey, I'm gonna go back home and start packing cause I've got no classes for the rest of the day. I'll see you guys a bit later okay?" Mina called out while walking away.
