Previous from Last Episode


The thief laughs while he pockets the card, "Oh, it depends if you both can defeat me, and that's a big IF!"

"Wait, only I will duel you!" Pyro shouted.

"Fool, it will be two-on-one duel, if he won't duel me, I will tear your card to pieces," said the thief.

Pyro flinches in anger; he so much wanted to teach this fiend a lesson.

"Allow me to help you Pyro, together we'll defeat this thief and you'll get your card back," Joseph said.

Pyro sighed in anger, "Fine, we'll do it your way, thief! It's not honourable, but I will save my card!"

"Good, speaking like a moron that you are," said the thief. "Oh, and before I forget, I am known as Dark. And now then, since it's two against one, you both have 4000 life points while I have 8000. Now then…"

Each of them activated their duelling disks; both Joseph and Pyro stand near each other and facing Dark. Once their auto-shuffle finished shuffling their decks, each of them exclaimed, "Let's DUEL!"


Episode Thirteen

Pyramid of Light

"He couldn't get far," Gregory said as he and DX ran down one alleyway. Of course along the way, DX accidentally slow things down by tripping over some junk or even running right into a wall.

After the third, Gregory started to wonder if DX truly was blind, but yet there were a few times that looked like he could see, of course that's pretty much with DX looking at his back.

"I hope you're right," DX replied as he followed Gregory, by the sounds of it, he's annoyed.

They continue to run till Gregory turned the next corner, and DX ended up running right into him the moment Gregory stopped. DX fell on his butt and groaned.

"Crud, it's a dead end!" Gregory said in annoyance.

"Oh you got to be kidding me," DX groaned as he got up.

"Hopefully the others caught the thief; let's go catch up to them!" Gregory said, he then go pass DX and ran off, forgetting one small problem.

DX had lost sight of his choran, and he groan in annoyance, "Hey wait up!" He ran after Gregory, bumping into a few things and the wall, till he eventually saw Gregory's choran and followed.


Joseph and Pyro VS Dark

Joseph: 4000/Pyro: 4000 VS Dark: 8000

Dark must've grin the moment after they had shouted at the same time, if he wasn't wearing a red mask that covers his mouth. "Since it is two against one, I'll start things off for you morons," Dark said as he draw a card from his deck, now has six cards in hand. And as he looks at his hand, he chuckles, "I set two cards face down," and as he set two cards into the spell/trap card slots on his duelling disk, two holographic faces down cards appeared in front of him.

Then he took hold of one card in his hand, "And next I play polymerization, fusing two monsters in my hand together!" He revealed the two monsters to be Red-Eyes B. Dragon and Summoned Skull, and as he put those three cards into the graveyard, a new monster appeared on his side of the field.

A huge thirty feet tall hulking black skeletal armored dragon appeared, standing on two legs, has two arms, and has red eyes. It was Black Skull Dragon, with the attack power of 3200.

"Black Skull Dragon is ready to burn your ashes and send you both to your afterlife, respect its power, fools," Dark laughs sinisterly.

"Now you cower behind this fiendish dragon, even it won't stand in our way," Pyro said as he stared defiant of the dragon.

'Already a powerful card, but no doubt not his strongest,' Joseph thought as he merely listen and waited for his turn.

"With that, I end my turn," Dark stated as he holds one card in hand. "And oh, if you don't know what that means, Pyro, it's your time to show how pathetic and stupid you are."

Joseph: 4000/Pyro: 4000 VS Dark: 8000

Pyro glared, "You will regret those words!" He draws a card, marking his turn as he holds six cards in his hand. After looking, he took two cards and set them into the spell/trap card slot zones on his duelling shield, than he took hold of one card in hand, "I set two cards face down, and I play Pot of Greed."

He plays the spell card and the wicked smiling green pot appears in front of him.

"Oh look, now the knight has become greedy, how honourable," Dark mocked Pyro.

Pyro yelled, "Silence!" The pot shattered as he draws two cards. As he looks at his five cards, he took of one, "I play Cost Down, with it; I discard one card." He does so, now down to three cards. "And with it, I special summon Dark Magician Girl."

A monster appeared on his side of the field, a very cute magician girl about five feet and ten inches tall, and carries a sceptre in right hand. She's Dark Magician Girl, with the attack power of 2000. And she did a peace sign with her free hand while giving a wink.

'Okay, nice to know Pyro's a knight who doesn't care about the idea of witchcraft,' Joseph amusedly thought to himself.

"Oh, now you're playing with girls, where's your sense of pride?" Dark mocked once more.

Pyro looked angry, but he took another card in hand. "And next I play a spell card, Sage's Stone," Pyro said as he played the spell.

'Looks like Dan isn't the only one, who plays with Yugi's ace,' Joseph thought after seeing that spell card.

"And with it, I can special summon a Dark Magician from either my hand or deck," Pyro said, he then took hold of his deck, browse through it till he found the card and put into his hand. Then once he put his deck into the deck slot, it auto-shuffled, and lastly Pyro played the monster on the monster slot zone beside Dark Magician Girl, and with it, Dark Magician appeared in attack mode, with the attack power of 2500.

"Heh, they're still too weak anyways, hardly appetizing for my Black Skull Dragon," Dark amused himself.

"Oh but I'm not done, I got one last card to play," Pyro said as he hold one card in hand. "I sacrifice my two magicians in order to special summon one of my strongest monsters!"

The two magicians shattered as they're sent to the graveyard, than Pyro played the monster on the slot zone on his duelling shield. "I summon Sorcerer of Dark Magic!"

Then on his side of the field, a new black clothed magician appeared with a sceptre in right hand. He stood proud with the attack power of 3200.

After the spellcaster was summoned, Pyro smirked, "Soon your dragon will perish, and nothing you can do will stop my spellcaster."

"Lucky draw," Dark said in annoyance.

"Well, I end my turn," Pyro stated, now that he has no cards in hand, and just two face down cards and Sorcerer of Dark Magic on his side of the field.

Joseph: 4000/Pyro: 4000 VS Dark: 8000

Dark probably grin, "You fool, your spellcaster is nothing but dead weight, but soon make excellent dinner for my dragon." He mocked as he started his turn by drawing a card.

"Hold on! It's supposed to be my comrade's turn!" Pyro demanded.

Dark probably smirked, than he looked at Joseph, "You're no doubt smarter than him, tell him the rules."

Joseph sighed as Pyro looked at him for an answer, "In duels like this, two against one and such similar, he get more turns than us. Like first Dark, than you Pyro, than Dark again, than me, than Dark… the cycle keep going. If it was all against all, then I would be your opponent instead of ally."

"Oh," Pyro said, felt a bit embarrassed by the mistake.

"See you dunce, the guy with brains gets it," Dark mocked Pyro, Pyro growled as Dark looks to Joseph. "See? The knight is way too proud and so used to duelling alone that he doesn't know one of those basics."

Joseph merely looked annoyed at Dark, remained quiet and waited for Dark to make his move.

Pyro glares at Dark, "Enough, make your move!"

"With pleasure," Dark replied with a chuckle, he looks at the two cards in his hand. He probably grins, for he took one of the two cards, "I play Ancient Rules."

He played the spell card, and he stated, "With it, I can special summon a level five or higher normal monster, and I summon King of Yamakai!"

A fiendish king monster appeared beside Black Skull Dragon, it stood about half tall as the dragon, with the attack power of 2000.

"You fiend," Pyro said in annoyance.

Dark must be grinning wickedly, for he said, "Now then, Black Skull Dragon, attack Joseph!" The fiendish dragon was about to erupt.

"You coward, I play a spell!" Pyro shouted as one of his two faces down cards revealed to be Enemy Controller.

Dark gawked in shock while Joseph looked surprised.

"By sacrificing 1000 of my life points, I'll be taking control of your fiendish dragon," Pyro said as his life points went down to 3000 and a video game controller appeared on his side of the field. "Left, right, A, B!" Pyro said, and by the effect, the cord headed straight to Black Skull Dragon, than it moves the dragon to his side of the field.

Joseph was confused, 'That effect only last tills the end of this turn; did he just do it to defend me?'

"And with that, my trap card is activated, Destruct Potion," Pyro said with a grin, while Dark looked shocked.

Joseph smiled, "Brilliant." Now understood why he used the controller.

"With it, I sacrifice Black Skull Dragon, and then gain life points for the amount of its attack points," Pyro said, Black Skull Dragon exploded, and Pyro's life point raised by 3200, becoming 6200.

Dark glares at Pyro in anger, "How dare…" Then he manage to calm down, now looked relax as before, "So what, you may have destroyed my monster and strengthen your life, but Joseph is still defenseless. Now my King…"

"Don't you even dare," Pyro demanded. "If you attack, my sorcerer will defend."

'Well that was close, looks like I got a shield,' Joseph thought, while Dark looked annoyed.

"Fine, I end my turn," Dark said in annoyance, not going to attack and his hand is empty and only has two cards face down.

Joseph: 4000/Pyro: 6200 VS Dark: 8000

"Now it's my turn," Joseph said, making his turn known by drawing a card from his deck and he now look at his six cards.

After some careful thought, he took one card and sets it face down, and placed a monster in attack mode on the central monster slot zone, "I place one card face down, and summon Badger of Bloodwrath in attack mode!"

A seven feet and four inches tall muscular anthro badger in green tunic and pants with a big war hammer in his hands. He stood there, prepared to fight with the attack power of 2000.

'Baltimore, welcome to the team,' Joseph thought to himself as he was looking at his beast-warrior. Some memories of that badger come to mind, as well as how he got the card.

He got that card along with some others before bed after he had the duel against Dan long ago.

"Okay, I must admit that looks like a sweet card, but it's only strong as my king," Dark snickered a bit.

"Who said I was going to attack your king?" Joseph asked, "I activate his special ability." The badger raises his war hammer up, looks like he's going to slam it into the ground. "By using his ability, he can't attack this turn. His ability is to destroy one face down on the field, and I pick one of your two face down cards."

"What?!" yelled Dark, sounded surprised.

"RAH!" roared the badger as he swung the war hammer down into the ground, causing a shockwave. It headed and struck one of Dark's face down cards and obliterated it, revealing it to be Magic Cylinder before it was sent to the graveyard.

"Looks like it was a good thing I didn't attack," Joseph stated with a smirk.

Pyro grinned while Dark looked ticked off.

"And with that, I end my turn," Joseph said as he now holds four cards, one face down card and one war-like badger.

It was then silent for a few minutes, till Dark suddenly started laughing loudly, causing confusion to the two of them. He laughs loudly, "You honestly thought that was my important face down card? You're worse as Pyro! For you see, you've activated my trap card!"

His trap card slowly raises, Joseph and Pyro tries to get a better view of it, wondering what it was. Then as they see, Pyro looked confused, but Joseph looked very shocked.

"You've activated my Pyramid of Light!" Dark laughed out.

Suddenly ominous chanting is heard from somewhere, than out of the card came a glowing white star that shot up into the sky, about sixty feet in the air. It stopped there, and as the chant become louder, the light brightens. Then out of it a single light beam of energy hit the center of the field, than it splits into four beams and spread out to four corners, making a square shape around them.

Pyro was surprised and confused of what was happening; Joseph looked scared as hell, while Dark look smug with his arms crossed.

"What's going on?!" demanded Pyro.

The four beams of light started to circle around them, making square glowing light lines. And as it does, Joseph said, "We're in big trouble."

Once it finished circling, the sides started to form new walls of ghostly blue aura; it rises to the central point. Now the three of them are trapped within the pyramid as it has finished being formed.


Both Gregory and DX had just come out of the alleyway to see the light show, well Gregory sees it. As for DX, he sensed and felt the terrible energy from it, along with seeing huge concentration of dark purple choran.

"Whoa, what the heck is that?" asked Gregory, sounded very surprised.

"I don't know, but whatever it is, it's bad," DX said.

"Amazing, simply astonishing," said a familiar voice that DX recognizes. He immediately turns to see a very familiar choran with an unnatural choran mixture of red and purple.

"Jonathan, you there?" asked DX, Gregory turned to see who DX is speaking too, and sees two people.

"Ah there you are ole chap, been looking for you, with a help of my new colleague here, Aurion Black," Jonathan replied, sounded cheerful as he and the dark black hooded cloaked man walked over.

Aurion seemed confused at Jonathan, "What's with you, first you act as a pirate, now some kind of scientist?" He looks at DX, and he asks, "You know who this guy is, so what's up with him?"

"He's just being Jonathan," DX replied.

"Well nice to meet you both, I'm Gregory. But enough chitchat, we were chasing a thief, and now that appeared," Gregory said as he then pointed at the light pyramid.

Jonathan looks at it from a distance, "If your thief was coming this way, it might be possible this pyramid is connected to the thief. But the big question is; how was this pyramid formed?"

"The only way to find that out is to get closer to see it," Aurion said, than he ran off to the park entrance.

"Hey, wait for us pal!" Gregory said as he follows.

Jonathan looks to DX, who nodded, "Then let's go solve a mystery pal!" Then he and DX follow Gregory and Aurion.

But just as they neared the park entrance, they find another guy, it was Dan wearing a black cowboy clothing without a cowboy hat, and was carrying a sack that contains something within it over his right shoulder.

"Holy moly what is that thing?" asked Dan, confused of the pyramid.

The four guys arrived by him, and Aurion was the first to ask, "Hey, do you know what's going on?"

Dan turned and sees them, "No, I was just going to have evening stroll through the park."

Suddenly at the central point of the pyramid, a beam of light shot into the sky, and formed a pillar. And all around it, ominous dark clouds swirled around the beam.

"Whoa," Aurion said in amazement.

"Come on chaps, enough dawdling, the closer we get, sooner our questions are answered!" Jonathan said.

"Right, let's go," DX said, and he and Jonathan ran forward, and now Aurion, Gregory and Dan following behind them.

As they go, Gregory said, "Oh, and I'm Gregory, those two are DX and Jonathan, and he's Aurion."

"I'm Dan," Dan replied as the group near the pyramid.


Yugi was just about to retire to his bed from his desk from working on his homework. Till he saw light outside of his window, so he took a look, and sees across the street and into the park, further within a very familiar ghostly blue pyramid stood.

He gasped, "No, it can't be?! It was destroyed! Anubis was gone! How can it be back?!"

He immediately got up and headed out of his room to tell grandpa, and no doubt call the gang through the phone.


In the Kaiba Corp building, Seto was working on his computer, working on designs while Mokuba had just gotten into the room.

"Hey big brother, are you planning to work through the night again?"

Seto looked up from his computer for a second, than he headed back to his work. "I am nearly done with my work, Mokuba," he replied.

Mokuba was about to say something till he saw something familiar through the window and very far away. "No, it can't be," Mokuba said as he moves over to the window.

"What is it Mokuba?" asked Seto, now noticing that his little brother is looking out the window. So he turned around in his chair, and look to where he's looking.

Far off in the distance, a pillar of light rose into the sky and dark clouds swirled around it. Its base is hidden behind several buildings and looked quite far away.

"Wait, I seen that kind of light before," Seto said, recognizing it.

"Yeah, it's the Pyramid of Light," Mokuba said, knowing that light anywhere.

Seto chuckled with a smile, "So, the gods' bane card has finally surfaced once more." He gets up from his seat, "Let's go Mokuba."

"Wait brother, remember what happened last time?" asked Mokuba, looked worried at his brother as he neared the door.

"It happened once, won't happen again. And that card was originally mine in the first place, so let's go," Seto said, and he opens the door and walks out, forgetting about his work.

"Oh man," Mokuba sighed, and he then followed his brother out of the office.


At the Kaiba mansion, Kyle sat at his bedroom desk, leaning on a chair with his feet on the desk. On his lap was a sketchbook, right hand holding a pencil as he was drawing something. In his left hand he was holding a cellphone to his left ear, talking while drawing.

"Yes, yes I know brother, I'm annoying Kaiba as much as you want, pretty soon he'll be coming to beg you to take me back," Kyle said with a chuckle.

Sounds of laughing on the other end, than a few whispers till Kyle replied, "Oh yes, no doubt you heard Kaiba lost to one of my new friends, he's called Joseph Hikari. And Seto lost against Joe's dragons. I won't say more, the best way for you to find out what kind of dragons he holds is to see for yourself."

Then Kyle notice out of his window, far off in the distance and behind several buildings, a glowing light pillar. Seeing it brought a chill down his spine, now no longer have humour in his voice as he speak, "Max, please tell Terra that there is a problem in the city." That sounded like an order.

Max was probably about to reply before Kyle hang it up, removed his feet from his desk. Set his sketchbook, pencil, and cellphone onto the desk as he got up. As he looks out the window, his eyes glow crimson with a fury.

"Whoever played that card will wish they were never born," he stated.


The five guys just arrived at one side of the pyramid, and now taking a good look at it. The ghostly blue aura was close to see through, but only seeing faintly of what's within. And whatever this pyramid is made of; is blocking DX's choran sight.

But Gregory must have sharp eyes, for he said, "There's Joseph and the knight, and the thief!"

"Knight and the thief?" asked Aurion, sounded confused by that, he asked "Seriously?"

"Joseph is having a duel in the night again?" Dan asked, was confused by that.

"What?" asked Aurion; looking to Dan.

"Oh, yesterday night I duelled him and won," Dan said, looking at the pyramid. "He and I are rivals now."

"Just met him today and he and I were supposed to have a duel," Gregory said, kept his focus at where the duel is happening. "But no matter, as long as he kicked that thief's butt, it's cool."

"Fascinating, simply fascinating, this pyramid is simply made entirely of light energy," Jonathan said, sounded excited of such. And as he looked up, he sounded surprised as he asked, "Oh, what's this?"

"What's what?" asked Aurion as most of them looked to Jonathan, and seeing he's looking upwards, each of them looked upwards, and Aurion immediately shouted, "A giant eye?!"

DX was looking at it too, mainly seeing a vast concentration of bloody purple energy, so dark and dangerous kind.

To the rest, it was a huge Egyptian eye symbol with blood red aura swirling around it, and the central eye has dark purple flames. And it seems to be looking down at them.

"Okay, now that is freaky," Dan said with eyes wide open.

"You said it," Gregory said as well.

Then suddenly wind pick up around them, seem like pulling them towards the eye. "Holy crap!" yelled Aurion as each of them tried to grab something to stay to the ground.

They mostly have to grab each other or the ground, trying to keep their hold on solid ground. They struggle as red electrical energy burst out and laced on the five guys, shocking them a bit till their bodies collapsed and five spiritual beings came out of their bodies.

They each looked surprised, and then looked at each other, seeing each other in similar shape.

"Holy," Aurion said as each of them was then pulled towards the eye.

"AH!" each of them yelled as they were pulled into the evil eye.


Within the pyramid of light, the moment after it finished, Joseph immediately felt a painful shock in his head. He quickly placed both of his hands on his head and struggled a bit, cried out in pain.

"Joseph!" Pyro shouted, seeing his ally in pain. He looked at the thief with a glare and demanded, "What did you do?!"

"Oh I did nothing, just enjoying your friend's pain," Dark chuckled, than he started to laugh.

Soon the pain ended, and Joseph opened his eyes and immediately glared at Dark. "How did you get that card?" Joseph asked, sounded sore.

"It sounds like you know what this pyramid is," Dark said with a grin. "Well let's just say, I got this card from my dear great grandpa Anubis. And now it serves me!"

Joseph's eyes widen, "Impossible, it was supposed to be destroyed along with him!"

Dark chuckled sinisterly, "Nothing's impossible. I am Anubis's Chosen One, and I will finish what he started. Starting with the two of you," he started to laugh once more.

Both Joseph and Pyro looked ready to fight for their lives, Pyro holding his shield in front of him and his free hand gripping the hilt of his sheathed sword. Joseph holds his duelling disk in front of him, while his right hand is pulled back, ready to shoot forward.

"Because now," Dark continued after finishing his laugh; "Time to welcome you both to your DEATH!"


'Whoa, things escalated pretty quickly? What happened to the five guys? Who is this Terra that Kyle mentioned? Will Joseph and Pyro defeat this craze Anubis's descendant? Find out next time on YuGiOh! Duels of the Actillian!'
