But as Joseph goes, he started to think a bit. During his argument with Seto, he had faintly heard the word Atem from one of them. He started to think of what characters that exist in this world that has that name, and eventually he remembered.
He instantly stopped with his eyes widen, and he thought to himself while Yugi and his friends had notice something wrong.
"Hey what's the matter pal?" asked Joey Wheeler, Joseph didn't replied.
'Atem, the name of the nameless pharaoh that no one isn't supposed to know;' Joseph thought to him, slowly the unanswered questions he had been suddenly begun to answer. 'And after discovery of his name, they headed off to send Pharaoh to his resting place. That could explain why Yugi does not have his puzzle…'
"Hello, Joseph, you in there?" asked Tristan, waving his right hand in front of his face.
"Is there something the matter?" asked Tea.
'…this all happened in the end of the first series of YuGiOh and goes onto GX with a new cast,' Joseph continue to think, furthering shocking himself, his head suddenly gave a small vibration. 'This means the temple in India…'
"Hey come on, snap out of it man!" Joey said, sounded a bit surprised, considering they're seeing Joe's entire head twitching or vibrating several times.
"What's wrong Joseph?" asked Yugi, trying to figure out why the new student looked very shocked.
'…the pyramid of Alexander is long destroyed after what happened,' Joseph thought to himself, he started to feel dizzy. 'The portal to the Capsule Monster world is gone, thus dimensional rift in there is sealed. I can't get to it…' With that last thought, his eyes rolled upward into his sockets as well as his eyelids closes as he fainted.

"No!" yelled Joseph as he woke up, sitting up in a bed within a small room. He gasps a bit as he realized it was a dream, sadly it wasn't a normal dream.
'This cannot be happening,' he mentally cried. From the dream he had, it was showing him the location of the dimensional rift. Same location, even the pyramid was still standing. But right before waking, the real nightmare started.
He had reappeared in front of the pyramid entrance, and watched it crumble. The portal within was sealed away, and the thought of never seeing his family came in front of him, seeing them fading away into the darkness beyond like a fading light, in his dream, he was chasing after that light. When the light vanished, he yelled, "No!"
And now he was awaken, mentally and physically scared of the possibility. He mentally asked himself, 'Am I doom in this world?'
Then he noticed where he is, he was sitting in a bed, a small bed actually, with his lower legs hanging over the end. He then sees a desk in the room, a chair, and a small empty closet wide open, and a window showing light from outside. By the angle of the lighting of the sunlight, it would be an hour before it would start to set.
He also sees that his backpack is on the desk, along with the blue school coat, he's still wearing the shirt.
As he moves till he now has his feet on the floor with him sitting, he sees that his boots were also removed.
"How the heck did I get here?" he asked himself, trying to remember what happened.
Then there was the sound of the doorknob being turned, alerting him so he face to the door. And then as the door open, who came in was someone who is older and but about the same size as Yugi, or is Yugi a bit bigger?
By the size, he's four feet tall, and wears dark green overalls with a white long sleeve shirt. He has a dark green bandanna on his head, as well him as gray spike hair, a moustache, and a beard.
Joseph recognized who he is, he's Yugi's grandpa, Solomon Muto, or as friends usually call him, Grandpa or Mr. Muto.
He gave a kind smile when he saw Joseph was awake, "Ah, glad to see you're alright." He then leaves the door open as he walks out, and as he goes, Joseph faintly heard him, "Yugi, he's awake."
Then there was the sounds of footsteps and soon after, Yugi and his friends came into the room. He smiled when he saw Joseph is awake.
"Great, you're awake!" Joey said, coming over.
Joseph groans a little and rubs his forehead with his right hand, and he asks, "What happened?"
"You fainted," Yugi said. "We'd almost thought it was serious."
"What happened man?" asked Tristan.
"You just stopped, and your head shook a bit," Tea said after, wondering what happened.
Joseph sighed and rubbed his forehead, "I was thinking way too much too fast, like an endless river of thousands of ideas of things came all at once like a tidal wave. Now I have a headache." He pretended that he did, but he doesn't have one, as well as the fact that he hid what it truly was.
"A bit dramatic, don't you think?" asked Tristan.
"Whatever," Joey said, "at least you're alright now. And man did you weighted a lot, it was difficult in carrying you here."
Joseph gave a light chuckle, than he asked, "Where is here anyways?"
"This is my home," Yugi said. "It is also a game shop called Kame Shop."
"A game shop," Joseph said, sounded curious, "interesting."
"Thanks," Yugi said. "This is also the room you're to stay in while being here, would you like a small tour?"
"Sure, but after my headache is gone, okay?" he asked kindly, and Yugi gave a nod.
"Anyways, what were you thinking?" Tea asked, rather curious.
"Well it started off with the idea of facing Seto till I realized what kind of deck he uses, a beat down deck with the power of the Blue-Eyes White Dragons," Joseph said quietly. "And I don't have my deck with me, and I ended up thinking up every single card, combinations and strategies all at once. This pretty much what helps me back home, making myself two steps ahead in ideas. But I was thinking way too much."
"Well that does happen a lot," Joey said. "It happens to me a lot when I tried to make up some strategies with new cards I get."
"It does happen to a lot of people," Yugi nodded, than he chuckled a bit, "well, not a lot."
"True," Joseph said, than he smiled as he lowered his hand. "Well my headache is gone."
"Great, let's start the tour then," Joey said, he and everyone else got up. And Joseph followed Yugi out of the room.
The tour was rather quick, for starters there are three floors, the main floor, the second floor, and the basement. Yugi showed Joseph to a stairway that leads to upstairs that pretty much only has one room, Yugi's room. Then the tour went on, Joseph sees that his room (Which was once a storage room he later learned) was beside Mr. Muto's room, there was the basement stairway, where the storage is now within. A small bathroom, a small kitchen, and a rather large living room with a couch, to chairs, a coffee table, and a TV. Then the last part of the house, the shop area.
When they came in, Joseph sees that the room holds shelves on the left and right walls, and mainly of Duel Monster cards, heck there is a counter with a box of card packages on it, and shelves behind it with few different games on sale.
Mr. Muto was there, sitting behind the counter and looking at what appears to be a ripped duel monster card.
Yugi indicated to his grandpa and said, "This is my Grandpa, Solomon Muto. Hey grandpa."
The old man turned and sees his grandson and all his friends and Joseph coming into the room. "Ah Yugi," Grandpa said with a smile, than looks to Joseph.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Joseph Hikari," Joseph said, giving a bow to the old man.
"Ah, another Joseph huh, and this one with some respect," Grandpa said, he gave a small laugh.
"Hey gramps, I still respect you as always," Joey said, was a bit surprised.
"Oh I know, but you don't bow unless you were being trained under me long ago," Grandpa chuckled a bit, Joey groaned.
Joseph had stood up, and was looking at the card. He knows what it was, but wanted to play like a curious one, "What happened to that card?"
Grandpa sighed sadly as he looks like that as well while he gaze at his card, "Oh it happened long ago, a very long time ago."
"Kaiba ripped it in half," Joey said, looked annoyed, considering he doesn't like Kaiba.
"What?!" Joseph yelled as he looks to Joey in shock surprised, while in his mind, he thought to himself, 'Time to bring in my best acting.' "Why did he do it?"
"It's because he wanted to make sure that he is the only one who has a Blue-Eyes White Dragon," Tristan said after.
"Wait," Joseph said, sounded surprised and turned slightly and pointed at the card in Mr. Muto's hand. "That's the fourth Blue-Eyes…?" Mr. Muto turned it around to show the card, and Joseph simply gawked at it.
"Seto wasn't in his right mind when it happened," Yugi said, he and everyone else know the full truth. They don't know that Joseph already knows it.
"Well even though the card is not playable, I'm glad to see it was never thrown away," Joseph said nicely as he came over and stood on the other side of the counter, looking at the card.
"Well of course I wouldn't throw it away because it was ripped," Mr. Muto said, holding the card close to him. "It is a very special card to me."
"It represents the friendship my grandpa has with another, Professor Hawkins," Yugi said.
"A friendship in one card," Joseph said with a smile. "But I'm sure the card also represents another friendship of another."
Mr. Muto raised his right eyebrow as he looks to Joseph, "What do you mean?"
"Well, even though I'm kind of a fanatic of the game, I at times believe that the cards we hold represents real beings who live in a world long side ours," Joseph said, he didn't noticed but the group was looking quite surprise, not by the fact he believes it, but the fact that it was true and they assumed that Joseph was close to the full truth. "And the cards is pretty much the windows to those exact creatures, we hold the cards and see their images. But to them, they could see and hear us. If their cards get damaged, they feel great pain. But with you taking care of the card with the way it is now, I'm sure the Blue-Eyes White Dragon who is connected to that card considers you as a friend."
He then sighed sadly, "Thinking about it, I really do miss my collection of cards. Seeing them, sometimes hearing them calls, like listening to the heart…" Then Joseph turned to look at both Yugi and Mr. Muto, since now Yugi stood beside his grandpa, both of them smiling. "Like you always said on TV, the heart of the cards."
Mr. Muto smiled and nodded, "Well said, Joseph."
Then Joseph felt a pat to his left shoulder and an arm on his shoulders, he turned his head to the right to see Joey. "You are definitely not related to Kaiba, he doesn't believe in the heart of the cards."
"Yeah man," Tristan said with a smile, Tea was smiling as well.
Yugi smiled a bit and pulled out his deck box, and looked at it a bit. Mr. Muto had then put the card in a picture frame that he at times put in and set it on the back shelf behind him.
"Glad to know there is one truth that makes me and him different," Joseph said with a smile.
"Yeah, and now you need to prove it to him completely by making yourself a new deck by tomorrow," Joey said.
"Ah yes, my grandson did told me you have a duel with Mr. Kaiba tomorrow. Hope you have some money to buy some cards," Mr. Muto said.
"Oh I do," Joseph replied, he reaches for his pants pocket, and pulled out his chained wallet, which the chain is connected to his belt. He opens his wallet, and pulls out a lot of yen money and set it on the counter.
Mr. Muto smiled while some of Yugi's gang looked surprised by the amount, "That is enough for fourteen packs of cards, unless you want some kind of starter deck with six packs."
Joseph thinks about the cost, the amount of yen money he had set down was worth for fourteen packs of cards, or gets one starter deck that is worth about eight packs. And each pack contains about ten cards, and a starter deck has forty cards.
After much thinking, he said, "Nah, I'll just get fourteen packs, I'll try to make a good deck out of them."
"Alright," Mr. Muto said, he then takes the money and put it into the cashier and then pulls out several boxes that contain different packages of cards. "Please take your pick."
Most of these packs contain a single image of a monster on them, and there were six kinds of packs. He raised his hand over the packs, and carefully chose fourteen packs. Three packs from two boxes, and two packs from the four others.
"Thank you for pack of cards, Mr. Muto," Joseph said, smiled a bit.
"You're welcome, Joseph," Mr. Muto replied.
"Say Joseph, where did you get that amount of cash?" Joey asked, was still surprised a bit.
He had put the packages into his jeans pocket and with his wallet still open. He opens it wide so for Joey and the others to see a whole wad of yen money. "Would you believe Kyle gave this much money to me?" he asked, he then thought, 'Considering he pretty much gave me the money in the limo, I might as well use it.' He then closed it and puts it back into his pocket.
"Well then, let's go to the living room and see what cards you gotten," Tea said.
"Um, will it be alright with you guys that I open them myself in my room. In that way, you all will see what cards I have, a surprise if you will," Joseph asked, rather hoping that he could build his own deck without anyone watching, as well as some time to think in peace and quiet.
"Well that's alright, right guys?" Yugi asked, and they nodded.
Mr. Muto then said, "Just be ready in an hour, supper will be ready by then."
"Will do, thank you," Joseph replied, gave a bow once more, than he headed out of the room, heading to his room. Once he's gone.
"Say, how we order a pizza instead, right?" asked Joey.
In his room, Joseph sat quietly at his desk, he had opened his fourteen packs. And out of those packs, he had gotten one-hundred and forty cards. And out of all of them, the best cards he gotten…
…there were none.
Joseph face slammed on the desk. He raised his head up a bit and looked at most of the cards. Most of them are strong, but need requirements to bring them out. These cards won't help him defeat Kaiba.
For starters, Kaiba uses cards like the Crush Card, and he uses those three unity machines, along with several powerful dragon-type monsters in his deck.
He groans, "I should've picked a starter deck, at least I would have a small chance…a very small chance…"
He turned his head a bit till he was looking at his backpack, and as he does, he slowly remembered that Kyle gave him a package. And since he is now alone, he reaches for it, opens it, and sticks his hand in.
"Please give me the package that I gotten today from Kyle," he said, and the package appeared in his hand, and he pulls it out. As he looked at it, it was a small package, almost like a CD case is within it. "What could this be?" he asked himself, and he started to open it.
After a minute of unwrapping it, he sees that it is just a welcome card. Feeling very confused, he opens it, and what he says in it isn't a welcome poem, but a small message.
It says: Joseph, make a wish, a small wish in a way. This world allows one to call items from home world. Have fun. And there was a smiling face.
"Odd," Joseph said, still confused, but decided to test it if it's true. He cleared his throat, then he said, "I wish I have all my cards here with me."
Suddenly above him, a glowing white light of energy appeared, catching his attention. He looked up in surprise, and as it goes, two very familiar zipper binders appeared; one red and the other blue. He reaches up with his hands and both binders fall and landed in his hands. But it didn't stop there, the light keeps glowing, and suddenly tin boxes, about five. Joseph had to set the binders down quickly and grabbed each tin box before they could fall on anything hard to make a loud sound.
Soon the light ended, and Joseph had now got two zipper binders and five tin boxes in front of him, while a neatly piled of one-hundred-and-forty cards he had gotten a while ago, all in front of him.
He looks at each of them with eyes widen, "It worked," he quietly said. He recognized each of them. His two large zipper binders, the blue one contains his monster cards in card holder pages, and the red contains his spell and traps cards. And the tin boxes, he tends to keep things organized, one tin box has more magic cards, one box has more traps. And the other three, one box contains monsters of stars range one to four, the second contains monsters of stars range five to twelve. And the last box contains his fusions, rituals, and synchros.
'Wait a second, synchros, oh god I bloody forgot!' he mentally thought about that. Synchros aren't supposed to exist in this time period, and back home, he at times uses dragon synchros in duels.
As he was thinking, he noticed there was more writing on the card Kyle gave to him. He picked it up, and looked into it. He read it quietly to himself, "P.S. When we will duel, don't hold back, I will be using synchros and XYZs… is he bloody serious?"
'We can't use synchros in this timeline, it could cause a lot of problems. And what the heck is XYZs?!' he asked himself in thought. 'Does he mean those types of monsters that Seto uses?' He thought about those three machine cards that Seto uses, each of them has the letter X, Y, and Z at the start of their names.
"Okay, now I really got a headache," Joseph said to himself, holding his head with both of his hands. And he had also thought, 'And how can I use my true deck without anyone noticing. I had kept saying I left my deck at home, and now here they are. I'm seriously going to get Kyle for this.' Then he quietly spoke, "I wish I have the whole collection of all the series of cards, maybe those will help?"
Wishful thinking, he chuckles quietly till himself till he realized one thing that made his eyes widen. "Oh crud, did I wished?" he asked, and in his answer, a glowing white light reappeared above his head.
He flinched as he looked surprised at it, and he asks himself, "Why do I have a bad feeling about this?"
And in an instance, thousands of cards started to pour through. All of them landing on top of him, and thus shocking him that he had pushed the back of his chair, tipping over and landing onto his back, while more cards pour out till the point there are so many cards covering the whole desk, his stuff, and the floors around him and some on top of him.
One card landed on his face, and he gently picks it off and sees what it was called, "Number 92: Heart-Earth Dragon. Oh so that's what an XYZ is…" Had finished reading the details, and notices a few details besides coloration. Synchro cards are white, XYZs are black, and the stars on the XYZs are coming from the left side instead of the usual right, is that supposed to mean something? 'Heck for that matter, how am I supposed to summon it.' "Now I wish I have one good rulebook."
Just as he made that wish, the glowing white light reappeared, and soon a book appeared.
"Oh my god, it's a hardcover rulebook, why would they make a hardcover?" he asked himself, than he realized where the book is going to land. "Oh no," he quietly said, clenching his eyes shut, expecting as it is about to happen.
The book fell out of the light, and headed down onto him, landing hard and right between his legs, striking him in the privates. It felt like someone had chucked it at him, and he groans in pain and slowly curled up into a ball and continues to groan.
After a few minutes, as well as using his healing spell, he slowly got up and carefully gathers all the cards and stacks them onto the desk. And just as so, there was a knock at the door.
"Everything alright in there, Joseph?" asked Yugi. "Heard the sound of something falling, was that you, you alright?"
'Thank god I had locked the door,' Joseph said in thought, than he spoke, "Everything's just fine. Just had a surprise trip, seems my mom had packed in my cards while I didn't noticed."
"Oh that's great, anyways supper will be ready soon," Yugi replied, than he walks away.
'Well at least I made a good excuse for my deck, now to build it,' Joseph thought, and he quickly gets to the desk and opened his binders, as well as looking into the book to look up the info on XYZs.
Eventually Joseph came out of his room, with his deck box in his pants pocket; he has a feeling of what is going to happen soon.
And just as he was about to head to the living room, Joey Wheeler was coming towards him.
"What did Yugi say, you have your deck all along?" asked Joey, now standing about four feet away from Joseph.
"Right here," Joseph said, pulling out his duel box. "Just found it in my backpack, why?"
Joey grins, than points his hand at Joseph, "Because I challenge you to a duel!"
Joseph looked confused, "Right now, even though it's close to supper?"
"Oh supper isn't ready yet, we still have time," Joey smirked.
"Then why do I smell pizza?" Joseph asked; there is the pizza smell coming from the kitchen.
"Mr. Muto is putting it into the fridge, duel first, then supper."
"Alright fine," Joseph sighed, but then grins, "If the pizza is the goal, I will defeat you."
"That's the spirit, let's duel in the living room," Joey grins as well, and both of them headed to the room.
In the room, Tea, Tristan, and Yugi were sitting on the couch, and they see the Joes come in. "Did you accepted his duel?" asked Yugi, Joseph nodded and Yugi smiled as he pulled out a notebook and pencil. "Alright, I'll keep track of the life points."
"Great," Joey said, he goes and sits down in a chair on one side of the coffee table. And Joseph sat in the other chair at the other end of the coffee table.
Both of them brought out their decks, and handed them to each other to shuffle. As they shuffle each other's decks.
"So who do you think will win?" asked Tea, looking to her friends.
"Well Joseph has his deck, and Marik did said he has three Five-Headed Dragons," Yugi said as he wrote down on the paper, putting Joseph and Joey's names on it along with the life points, 4000 each.
"Well the only way Joey could win is if Joseph doesn't bring it out, otherwise, he's a goner," Tristan said after.
"Thanks for the load of confidence," Joey said sarcastically and gave Tristan a light glare.
Joseph chuckles a bit as they handed their decks back to each other, "I may have the powerful dragons, but I wasn't one of the top four in the Battle City Tournament, nor in the Grand Championship."
"Because you weren't in those," Joey said.
"Right, because they only allow best duellists in," Joseph said.
Joey grins, now believing he has a chance. "Alright, enough talk. Let's duel!"
Joey versus Joseph
Joey: 4000 – Joseph: 4000
Each of them drew five cards from their decks, and Joey said out loud, "I'll start things off." He draws one card, and looks at his hand. He then places three cards face down in the spell/trap card zone, "I place these three faces down, and summon Swordsman of Landstar in attack mode." He places a monster card in an attack position in one of the five monster zones (ATK: 500). "I end my turn."
Joey: 4000 – Joseph: 4000
"My turn," Joseph said with a grin, he draws a card from his deck and looks at his hand. "I summon Lord of Dragons in attack mode," he said as he placed the monster card in the monster slot zone in attack position (ATK: 1200). "And activate the Flute of Summoning Dragon," he continued as he placed the spell card in the spell/trap card zone. "With it, I summon two dragons from my hand. And they're both Red-Eyes Black Dragons!" He revealed two monster cards as he placed them on either side of Lord of Dragons, both in attack position (ATK: 2400).
"WHAT?! TWO?!" Joey said loudly, clearly surprised of that.
"Whoa, two of them already," Yugi said, sounded very surprised.
"Now this is getting interesting," Tristan said.
"And I'm not done there, oh no, not by a long shot," Joseph grins as he revealed second magic card. "I play Draconnection," he continued, "This allows me to reveal one dragon monster in my hand." He holds his last card, revealing it to be a level seven light dragon monster, Hyozanryu. "And by showing it, I get to add one dragon type monster from my deck to my hand that has the same amount of levels."
He then picks up his deck, and looks through it till he took one card and placed it in his hand. "And lastly, I shuffle my Hyozanryu back into my deck," he continued, and he shuffles his deck, and places it down. He then looks to Joey with a grin, "Time for battle! Red-Eyes Black Dragon will attack your Swordsman with Inferno Fire Blast!"
"Now hold on, you activate two of my face downs," Joey said as he then revealed the two. "My Graceful Dice and Skull Dice; With Graceful Dice, depending what number I roll, my Swordsman of Landstar's attack would increase."
Yugi pulls out a six-sided dice, "Here you go Joey."
"Thanks buddy," Joey replied, he took the dice and started shaking it in his hands. "Come on baby, I need a winner." He rolls it, and after a few seconds of rolling, it landed on a three. "Sweet, now my Swordsman has 1500 attack points. Now my Skull Dice, depending on its roll, your monster's attack power will decrease by dividing down by what number I roll." He started shaking the dice once more, and he lets it drop. It rolls a bit, till it landed on one. "Oh darn it!"
"Looks like my Red-Eyes Black Dragon doesn't lose power, now your Swordsman is destroyed!" said Joseph with a grin, and Joey loses 900 life points from it. "And then my other two will attack you directly!"
"Hold it; you activate my last card, Scapegoat!" Joey said as he revealed his last face down card, revealing it to be the quick-play spell card with four goats on it. "Now these babies will block your attack and keep my life points safe."
"True, but now you only have two scapegoats left, and now it's your turn," Joseph said, still grinning.
Joey places his three cards into his graveyard while Joseph placed his two in his graveyard.
Joey: 3100 – Joseph: 4000
"Alright, my draw," Joey said as he drew his next card from his deck. He was thinking as he looks at his three cards, than he reveals one card, "I play Pot of Greed; Allowing me to draw two cards." As he then put his spell card into the graveyard, he draws two cards. And as he looks at his hand, he was grinning. "Sweet, I activate Premature Burial. With a cost of 800 of my life points, I bring back my Swordsman of Landstar to the field." He then brings back the monster from his graveyard back onto the field. "But I'm not done there, for I sacrifice it, to summon my Jinzo in attack mode!" He puts the monster back into the graveyard, than places a new monster into the monster zone, a machine type monster with 2400 attack points. "And now I attack your Lord of Dragons, and now this time you lose life points. I end my turn."
Joseph puts his Lord of Dragons into his graveyard.
Joey: 2300 – Joseph: 2800
"Way-to-go Joey!" said Tristan, cheering on his friend.
"My turn," Joseph said, chuckle a bit as he draws another card. Once he looked at it, he instantly revealed it, "I play Card of Sanctity, allowing each of us to draw till we have six cards in our hands." (Note: In the anime, the card does that, while in the real life it works different, this is the anime world so that card would work like that)
Each of them drew cards from their decks till they each hold six cards, and Joseph puts his spell card into the graveyard once it was done being used. He then grins as he looks at his hand; he looks to Joey, "Looks like I win."
"What?" asked Joey; sounded surprise of what Joseph just said.
"I activate polymerization," Joseph said, revealing the card he has in hand. "And I'm going to be fusing my two Red-Eyes with my third in my hand." He revealed his third Red-Eyes in his hand.
"Fusing three Red-Eyes Black Dragons, does that mean…?" Joey asked, sounded surprised as well as fearful.
"That's right," Joseph grins as he then puts his three Red-Eyes B. Dragons into the graveyard, and pulls out a monster card from his Extra Deck. "I summon Red-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!" He placed the fusion monster in attack mode, a black three-headed dragon of the Red-Eyes (ATK: 4000).
"No way!" said Yugi; sounded very surprised.
"And I'm not done there," Joseph said, on the roll. "I activate Card Destruction, causing us to discard our whole hands and draw the same amount of cards we had before."
Joey groans as he put his six cards into the graveyard, than he drew six more while Joseph discarded three cards and drew three cards. Once Joseph sees his hand, he grins widely, "Next up, I play my next spell card, Dragon's Mirror!" He played a spell card with what looks like a mirror and a dragon coming out of it. "Now I remove five dragons in my graveyard from play." He then removes the three Red-Eyes B. Dragons from his graveyard along with two dragons he had discarded with the help of Card Destruction, Hyozanryu and Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8. Of course when Yugi and the others saw that card, they were further surprised, because that card is very rare. "And with that, I bring out my second fusion monster, Five-Headed Dragon!"
"Holy!" Joey yelled as Joseph brings out the powerful dark fusion monster from the Extra deck and placed it beside Red-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, revealing the powerful Five-Headed Dragon in attack mode (5000).
"Whoa, talk about overkill," Tristan said, he and all the others looked very surprised.
"Then lastly I'll activate Brain Control," Joseph said as he revealed a spell card from his hand. "And I will take control of your Jinzo." He takes the Jinzo card and placed it beside his two fusion cards.
Joey looked very shocked when that happened, now one of his powerful monsters is working with his opponent and he only has two scapegoats for defense.
"And now for battle, my Red-Eyes and Jinzo attack your Scapegoats!" Joseph said loudly, and Joey's scapegoats were destroyed and sent to the graveyard. That left Joey defenseless while Joseph still has one last move, with his Five-Headed Dragon.
"And lastly, my Five-Headed Dragon will attack you directly with Ultimate Oblivion!" Joseph said, and Joey's life points went straight down to 0.
Joey groans as he dropped his hand of cards to the floor and lowered his head while Joseph wins the match.
Joseph smiled as he puts his cards into his deck box, and holds out his hand to Joey, "Good game."
"Good for you," Joey said with a groan, he noticed, and then shook Joseph's hand.
"Not true, it was bad luck on your head. If you succeeded with Skull Dice, I wouldn't be able to bring out my Red-Eyes Ultimate Dragon. I would've had to make a decision of either Red-Eyes Ultimate or Five-Headed Dragon," Joseph said with a chuckle. "Of course it was luck on my end with Card Destruction. If I didn't drawn Dragon's Mirror, I couldn't bring out Five-Headed Dragon. The matter of luck of the draw..."
Joey chuckles a bit, "So true, but next time I will win."
Joseph chuckles as well, "That would be later, now is pizza!"
"Right," Joey said, and they both put their decks into their deck boxes and into their pockets and headed to the kitchen.
"They're almost alike," Tristan said, sounded surprised and a bit fearful. The other two feel the same way.
"Except his deck is almost similar to Kaiba's deck," Tea said, still surprised.
"Well, at least he's ready to face Kaiba tomorrow," Yugi said as well, he had thought of it before, but it's still kinda scary when thinking about it.
"Hey guys, aren't you coming to get a slice?" Joey asked as he poked out, holding a slice of pizza with a bite in it.
Then Joseph poked out as well, with a bite in slice of pizza in his hand as well, "Hurry up or there would be none left." Then they both headed right back in.
All three of them shivered, "Yep, they're almost alike," said Yugi.
Eventually they each got up and headed into the kitchen for a slice of pizza.
By nightfall, everyone had their fill of pizza. After that, Joey, Tristan, and Tea had left and headed home. And Joseph had gone to his room, worked on the homework for tomorrow. And once he finished, he looked at his deck box.
He reaches for it, and pulls out his deck of cards, and mainly looked at the dragons and the few creatures of his deck, as well as the fusions. "Well, looks like we haven't lost our touch in duelling," Joseph chuckles a bit, he was talking to his cards, even though they can't talk back, they're cards.
His cards binder was open, and at one page shows some cards of Blue-Eyes white Dragon and other powerful dragons that he at times uses in his deck. "I wish we could duel fully, but sadly we can't in this timeline. I can't put one of you in my deck, because if I did, we would be caught."
He set his deck down, and looked at his pages of cards. He has a few more Red-Eyes B. Dragons, about four more and nine Blue-Eyes-White Dragons, four Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragons, and one Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon.
Besides the whole six-thousand new cards he gotten before, in his own collection of cards, he has so many rare and powerful cards already. And at times, he always looks at them, making sure they're in good condition.
"If only I could use synchros," he said to himself as he turned the page over to his synchro dragon section. He has several powerful synchros, like Ancient Fairy Dragon, Red Dragon Archfiend, Black Rose Dragon, Power Tool Dragon, and several more.
"And I wish I could try out the XYZs, but I can't," Joseph said to himself again, reaching for the tin box that he had put all the XYZs in, and opens it. He then pulled out several dragon XYZs, mainly the one that fell on his face when it arrived, the Number 92: Heart-Earth Dragon.
He then puts it back, and closed his tin box, and was about to close the binder. But as the front card holder page revealed, he sees his own three Egyptian God Cards, Slifer, Obelisk, and Ra. Well as three Sacred Beasts; Uria, Raviel, and Hamon. And three cards underneath them, another Five-Headed Dragon, Dragon Master Knight, and Cyber End Dragon. He closed the binder and zip it shut.
He returns his attention to his deck, and said, "Tomorrow we have our duel against Seto Kaiba, and if we win, maybe then he'll get it through his thick skull I'm not related to him. But for now, goodnight." He then put his deck into the deck box, than he got up and headed into bed.
Well now, that's quite a lot of powerhouses of dragon cards, and what a duel! But why is Kyle continuing to help him? How is wishing possible in this world? And for that matter, will he win against Seto Kaiba tomorrow? Find out next time in… YuGiOh Duels of the Actillian!
