The cloaked Morgan ripped off his cloak. He was wearing gray boots, a golden belt, and black jacket. He had black spiky hair.
Morgan ran over to Malik, who was still bemused. He shook his hand, like a kid high on sugar.
"Its about time we met, King Malik." He said energetically.
Malik pulled his hand back, and took a few steps back. "Who are you?!"
"Ah, your a joker. Thats cool-"
"Tell me who you are now." said Malik more serious.
Morgan was bemused. " Hang on, your joking right?"
"I don't joke about things. Who are you? Why did you teleport me? Do you work for someone? "
"You don't actually feel it? Are you serious?"
"Answer me!" Malik shouted.
"Ok ok." Morgan replied with hands in front of him. "A test thats cool, I'm King Morgan, I sensed you Malik, I came to help you. And people work for me, not the other way around. Being a King is cool that way. Do I pass?" Morgan smiled awkwardly.
Morgan looked at Malik, he was still bemused.
"I don't know who you are. But I didn't need saving." Malik came up to Morgan and grabbed him by his shirt. "I nearly beat the bane of my life, Derek Sampson. If you didn't interfere, He would have been history."
"Ok now Malik, now your scaring me."
Malik took a breath in and let Morgan go, he pushed him backwards as he landed.
"I don't know who you are. What are you a King of?"
The penny dropped for Morgan, Malik didn't know who he was. "You generally don't know who I am?"
"No, No I don't."
"So you lost your memories."
"Tell me who you are?"
"My name is Morgan, I come from a planet, far away from this one. My role is King, but not a normal king. Yes I'm leader of my world , but I like to be a normal guy as well, I hang out with people. I love a bit of fun."
Malik looked unimpressed. "Ok, what is this planet called?"
"My world is called the Light World."
Malik smirked. "Ok, its a fun story. Your King, of a world call the Light World? I give you ten out of ten on imagination."
"Deny it all you like Malik, but I know one thing. You have been having feelings, a cold feeling rush through your body. Its how I was able to sense you."
Malik look around at Morgan, with a more surprised face. "How did you know about my feelings?"
"I sensed it, I knew exactly where you would be. Don't you want to know who you are?"
"No, because I'm not some King. Your the second person to tell me that, someone called Blaze. He must have told you what I was feeling."
"I don't know this Blaze guy. But you are the King of-"
"ENOUGH" Malik shouted. "I have heard enough of this, but since you like to chatter lets make a deal, if I beat you in a duel then you shut up and go away. If you win, then you can tell your little kids story. Deal?"
"Thats fine Malik, back home not only am I a King, I'm quite the duelist as well." Morgan put his hand up to the sky, yellow energy appeared, forming a duel disk on his left arm.
The duel disk was yellow and white, it had a yellow orb in the middle, it had a Gage on it.
"So you run a Gage as well. You must come from where Blaze is."
"Malik, im going to win, and show you why your a King, and why I need your help. All King's have a Gage counters. But..."
"Lets duel!" shouted Malik, wanting to shut up Morgan.
Turn 1
Morgan LP: 4000 Hand: 5

"I will go first Malik, I summon Vylon Vanguard to the field." The monster was a white robot with gold plating
Vylon Vanguard ATK: 1400 DEF: 1000 Light/Fairy LVL 4
"Next I equip it with Vylon Material!" Vylon Vanguard's gold plating grew with the new equip card. "This increases my cards ATK by 600."
Vylon Vanguard ATK: 2000
"That will do for now. I end my turn."

Morgan LP: 4000 Hand: 3
Malik LP: 4000 Hand: 5
"Hardly impressive for someone with a big mouth, I draw!"
"I normal summon Ragtag Tiger."
Ragtag Tiger ATK: 1700 DEF: 800 LVL 4 Beast/Earth
"I play his effect, this card gains 100 ATK X the amount of cards in your hands." Ragtag Tiger growled as he powered up.
Malik Gage: 0 - 1 (Effect)
Ragtag Tiger ATK: 2000
"Next I special summon Ragtag Witch, since I control another Ragtag monster."

Malik Gage: 1- 2 (Effect)

"Shes cute, for a monster." said Morgan cheekily.
"I cant wait to shut you up, I play a spell, Ragtag Trust, by tributing my Witch, my Tiger gains her ATK points, and it cant be destroyed this turn."
Ragtag Witch spun on her broom as she disappeared, Ragtag Tiger, grew in size.
Ragtag Tiger ATK: 2500
"Now go Tiger, take out Vylon Vanguard, Slashing Claw!"
The Tiger scratched twice on Vanguard destroying it. Morgan stood still as he took damage.
Morgan LP: 3600 - 3100
"I play Vylon Materials effect, if this equip card was destroyed. I can add one Vylon spell to my hand, I choose Vylon Pieces to my hand."
"Fine I gain three more Gage counters, but you know that."
Malik Gage: 2- 5 (Destroyed Monster, destroyed Spell/Trap)
"Also my Vanguard has a effect, when its destroyed I can draw a card for each card it was equipped to it."
"I end my turn. My Tiger loses its first effect at the end of the turn. "

"Next I play my spell Vylon Pieces ."
"This card allows me to add two Vylon equip cards from my deck to my hand, I add Vylon Filament and Vylon Boost., Next I play Vylon Boost."
The spell card appeared on the duel area. "With this card, as long as I have a equip card in my hand,I can special summon a Tuner monster from my deck."
"A Tuner? So you run Sychro's? But what about your gage?"
"As I was trying to say, I do run Growth monsters, but my world was attacked. It was attacked by a third King."
"Third King?"
"Yes, I knew about you, and a third King, aswell as his planet. Which I guess is where that Blaze guy came from. He came to my planet, they attacked my people. All that and they were looking for me. When they found me, I was able to hold them on in a duel, but I lost. After I lost they started... they clicked a button on their duel disk, and I started to fade away."
"That sounds like... being sealed. Sampson is doing that to people."
"He must have had help from the from this world. I was lucky enough to escape, I dont know how, however they drained me of some powers I have."
"Powers?"
"As King, we have a select number of powers, one of them is to use Growth monsters. All my Foundation, and Growth cards could no longer work"
"But people in my City use Growth monsters?"
"I saw, as I said. Whoever this Sampson guy is, he must have had help from this third world. He must have been given the power to Growth summon and given it to other people. But I will tell you more after I beat you, I special summon Vylon Psi."
Vylon Psi ATK: 1400 DEF:200 LVL 3 Light/Fairy/Tuner
"I now tune my LVL 3 Psi with Vylon Solider!"

Morgan LP: 3100 - 2600
"I now play a second Vylon Material, increasing its ATK by 600!"
Vylon Sigma ATK: 2400
"Now go Sigma, take out his Tiger!"
The monster powered up a golden energy orb in its hand, then unleashed it directly at Ragtag Tiger.
Malik LP: 4000 - 3800
"Next up my Psi's effect, if this card is equipped to a monster, and it destroyed a monster this turn. You take Psi's ATK as damage aswell."
"So thats why you paid 500 life points."
Malik LP: 3800 - 2400

"I pay two Gage Counters, this allows me to half your monster's ATK."
Gage: 3 - 1
Phoenix flapped its wings, as it blew Sigma towards the ground.
Sigma ATK: 1200
"Now go Phoenix, take out his monster!"
Ragtag Phoenix flapped its wings again, this time sending Sigma into the sky before it was destroyed.
Morgan LP: 2600 - 1300 Gage: 1 - 4 (Destroyed Monster, Destoyed Spell)
"Since Material was destroyed again, I can add one Vylon spell to my hand. I choose Vylon Matter."
"I end my turn with a set card." said Malik.
Turn 5
Morgan LP: 1300 Hand: 4
Malik LP: 2400 Hand: 1 Gage: 4
"Ok, a test. I like a test I draw!"
Malik's face was showing his annoyance at Morgan. " I play my trap. Synchro Reborn! I bring back my Sigma."
Sigma appeared back on the field. Morgan then showed his next card. "I play my next card Vylon Matter, this card can allows me to return two Vlyon equip cards to my deck, then I can either draw a card, or destroy one card you control."
"Damnit." said Malik.
Morgan re added the two Vylon Materials to his deck, and then pointed at Malik's Phoenix. "I destroy your monster."
As Phoenix disappeared, Morgan looked more excited. "Ok next up, I summon Vylon Sphere."
Vylon Sphere LVL 1 ATK: 400 DEF: 400 Light/Fairy/Tuner

"Thats more like it." said Malik.
"I'm glad you like it, but you wont like this. I equip Vylon Filament on to it. But then I play my Epsilon's effect by destroying this equip card. I can destroy one monster you control. I take out your Gravedigger! Now Epsilon win me this duel. Attack directly!"
Epsilon charged a power ball in its hands, before unleashing it at Malik.
"I play my Tiger's effect I banish this card from my grave, then I reduce the damage I would by 200 X the amount of Ragtag monsters I controlled this duel, which was four. So I take 800 less damage. "
The attack hit Malik, sending him flying backwards.
Malik LP: 2400 - 400 Gage: 4 - 5 (Effect)
"I play my trap Ragtag Force, this allows me to special summon one Ragtag monster from my deck to the field, with ATK equal or less then the amount of damage I took, I bring out Ragtag Cyborg."
Ragtag Cyborg ATK: 1600 DEF: 1000 LVL 4 Machine/Dark
"Damn, nearly. I end my turn." said Morgan.
Turn 6
Morgan LP: 1300 Hand: 2
Malik LP: 400 Hand: 1 Gage: 5
"Time to end this. I draw!" said a fierce Malik.
"I summon my Ragtag Pirate"
Ragtag Pirate ATK: 1000 DEF: 200 LVL 3 Earth/Warrior
"This card allows me to take away 800 of your monsters ATK and put them onto my card."
"I play my trap, Sychro Rejection. If I control a Synchro monster, I can negate your effect and destroy your card." Morgan pointed as Malik's Pirate was destroyed.
"Very well then. I banish my Pirate to play his second effect, when its banished I can special summon one LVL 3 or below Foundation monster from my grave, its effects are negated and its destroyed during the end phase. Guess who's coming back!"
"I'm starting to regret calling her cute..."
Ragtag Witch reappeared again. "Now I play my Cyborgs effect. I can tribute this card, then I can add one card from my grave to my hand. So I tribute my Cyborg, so I can add Ragtag Phoenix back to my extra deck!"
Gage: 5 - 7 (Effect x2)
"Now I banish my Cyborg for his second effect. If all my opponents monsters this turn were speical summoned, their ATK and DEF are switched!"
"No way." said Morgan.
Vylon Epsilon ATK: 1200 Gage: 7 - 8 (Effect)
"You negating my Alien actually worked, for me at least. I now regrow Ragtag Witch, come back Ragtag Phoenix!"
Ragtag Phoenix reappeared, Morgans face showed defeat.
"Now then, I pay eight of my counters, this halves your monsters ATK for each two counters I pay."
Vylon Epsilon ATK: 75 ATK Gage 8 - 0
Epsilon's golden plates became more pale, as Ragtag Phoenix flew into the sky.
"Finish this off Phoenix, Phoenix flare!"
Malik's mighty monster flew down head on, dive bombing right into Epsilon.
Morgan stood there in defeat as his life points fell to zero.
Morgan LP: 1400 - 0 Malik Wins
As the duel field disappeared, Malik came over to Morgan.
"You win, it looks like I will be off then."
"Yeah, but only after you tell me everything."
"But you said-"
"Yes, I know what I said. But throughout that duel, you kept being optimistic. You was enjoying it. I don't know why, something in my body is telling me, I have seen that sort of attitude to dueling before."
Morgan gleed with surprise. "Yes.. Yes Yes! Your finally getting your King-"
Malik threw his fist at Morgan's stomach, stopping just before he made contact. "I'm not going to listen to you, if you keep referring to me as King. Malik is my name, call me that."
"Sure." Morgan said, relived at Malik not punching him. "Your a violent one aren't you."
"I am, the first thing im wondering is. Why am I not feeling this coldness? Plus what is that feeling?"
"The coldness is a sign, it must be you, denying your power. On my planet, I always knew I was going to be King, but I kept rejecting it. I had the same feeling. I'm thinking every King has a different upbringing, in your case, you have no knowledge of it all together. As to why your not feeling it, Im guessing, your starting to understand what a King is."
"So what do these Kings do?"
"That Malik I don't know. From what I was told growing up, these selection of Kings were chosen to protect our worlds."
"So why did you come here to find me?"
"Ever since I lost my powers, my world has been dying. I was told we are connected to our planets physically. My planet is losing everything, plants aren't regrowing. The air is getting thiner, everything is getting worse. "
"But this planet isn't dying? If I am this King, I don't have these powers and this world isn't dying."
"No Malik, I think it is. If a King does not have their power, that world is dying. In your case, I don't think its physical signs. I think -"
"You think my world is dying in the sense of Sampson?"
"I can only guess yes."
Malik thought about it. "Fine, but why didn't you come for me before?"
"Because the Kings were not meant to meet. We were chosen to protect our worlds. I was told when we all come together, something bad will happen."
"Something bad?"
"I don't even know, but why would we not be allowed to meet if our powers are for good?"
"So what are you thinking?"
" I cant help but feel there is a dark reason behind that."
"Ok, well you come back to our base, and we will talk more. But Morgan, don't tell this to anyone ok?"
"Roger that Kin- Malik." Morgan correcting himself at the last minute.
"Ok, so can you teleport me to this place or what?"
"Yes, I was unable to enter that duel dome, but this device can track your energy signals." Morgan pointed towards his belt. "I can teleport us back to your base." Morgan put a chip on him and Malik from his pocket.
"Hold on." said Morgan. He pushed a button on his belt, as the two disappeared in blue aura.
Seconds Later
The two reappeared, but they weren't at Malik's base. They however had appeared in a road with run down buildings.
Malik looked around. " . Why did you bring me here?"
"I must have got it wrong? My transporting device normally does this. Whats bad about here?Give it twenty minutes, then it will work again."
"We don't have twenty minutes, this is the City. My City, and I don't think Sampson is going to leave me alone."
Morgan and Malik looked at each other with concern.
Back At The Base
Hannah and Alex were back in their base, they were gathered around a table. Professor Ivan was talking to them.
"So Ivan, what is project N.W?" said Alex.
"One day I was researching a new energy signal I had received on my Planetary radar. It had energy patterns I had never seen before."
"And?" said Hannah
"These patterns had the same energy signal as fire. Expect, this planet was burning as hot as the sun. I wouldn't give it to Sampson, because anyone who were to go there. Would, well you know."
"And you have a device to teleport people?"
"I did, but I dismantled it. Project N.W isn't the planet discovery, its the plans on the machine to teleport people to those planets. Whatever Sampson wants, he wants to teleport to that world.
Hannah and Alex looked at each other. They knew they had to get those plans back.
Next Time: Morgan and Malik are trapped in the City, however Sampson isn't the main threat. A crying child is.
I changed Vylon Matter, its a Real card, but I changed the effect from 3 equip spells to 2 for plot reasons.
