Chapter 3 - Just Like Old Times
June 3, 2005 - 11:00 AM
"Ahahahaha! I'm free of that damned seal. I have a host now, isn't that right young Liam?" A different voice came out of Liam. It wasn't Liam's voice; It was the voice of some one more evil.
'Er. Yes, what do you plan to do with me?' Liam thought to the strange spirit possessing him.
"Hush up, slave. Your body is mine for my bidding, you will forget my existense, NOW!"
In a flash Liam was back to normal. Liam had forgotten what just happenned. He couldn't figure out how he got a necklace on, with a card as a medalian. He looked at the card. It was a field spell. But the picture was a blank white, there wasn't even a title or description. It was odd, but he felt compelled to leave it on, and he did so.

"Hey whatsup?" Said a man as Logan, Emma, Nathan, and Ethan approched him.
"Sup Luke. Hey Logan, this is my friend Luke," Ethan said.
"Hey dude," Logan said to Luke.
"Sure thing man. Guys you gotta come with me to this game shop," Luke said.
They made there way to the game shop with ease. As they approched it, Logan thought, 'maybe we could stay here tonight.'
They walked into the shop. They could see a man with unique hair at the counter. Logan recognized him as Yugi Mutou. Yugi was grown up by now. It looked like he owned the shop.
"May I help you?" Yugi asked.
"Yeah uh-"Logan was interputted by a tall, lanky, blonde haired guy. It was Jonouchi.
"-Hey Yug'. What's goin' on pal? Who are these guys?" Jonouchi asked.
"By the looks of it, customers." Yugi explained to Jonouchi.
"Mr. Mutou, but uhh..."
"Please go on Mr. Logan"
"I was wondering it you have any cards that I could use in an up coming duel tournament? Plus, do you know how to get to KaibaCorp HQ?" Logan inquired.
"Well, to answer your first question, I can see what I can find; And also, KCHQ is here," Yugi handed Logan a hand drawn map. Logan took it and looked the page over carefully.
When Logan put the page in his pocket, a group of people came into the shop. One had brown spiked hair (Honda). The other had black hair and dice for earings (Ryuji).
"Parked it!" Honda announced to the shop.
A woman entered after them, she had brown hair as well (Anzu). The last one to enter was a man with long, white hair (Bakura). They had all grown up since Atem went to the Afterlife.
"Honda, it took you twenty minutes to park the car." Anzu explained, exaggating the time it took to park.
"It was a tight parking space, but when I finally parked it, it was the cleanest parking you'll ever see."
"Hey Yugi, anything new?" Bakura asked.
"Well I just got this card," Yugi showed them a card. It was sort of different for a Duel Monsters card. It was a monster, but it was white, "it's this new kind of monster that Pegasus created."
"Of course Pegasus. He's a manchild; Always making up rules as he goes along," Jonouchi said.
"So how do ya use it?" Honda and Bakura asked one after another.
Yugi pulled out two regular effect monsters. One had six stars, and the other had two stars, "it's sort of like this, you need a Tuner monster, and a regular monster," Yugi pulled out a another white card (Stardust Dragon [9 Stars]), "these cards are Synchro monsters. To summon them, you need to need the stars on the Tuner and the regular monster to be equal the Synchro's star level." All of Yugi's friends only half got it. They were bamboozled with this new kind of card.
"Uhhh, Yug', is there like rule book or manual of some kind that I could see. I don't get these new rules Pegasus keeps making up. It's like, what the Hell?" Jonouchi asked.
"It's simple when you get the hang of it. I had no I idea how to use Synchros at first. Once you figure it out, it's more simple. We could duel for practice."
"Yes. Please. Thanks Yugi." Jonouchi said.
"No problem Jonouchi. So any card you'd like?" Jonouchi looked at the list of cards. He bought some Tuners and a Black Rose Dragon.
After everyone had bought cards, Logan went up to Yugi, "hey, any cards for me?"
"Well, I got plenty. I'm sorta limited on Synchros though." Logan saw Chaos Goddess and another card, an odd looking one. It was a field spell called Cross Over into the Afterlife. Logan picked up the two cards.
"I'd like to buy these." Logan exclaimed.
"Alright. That's 3,500 Yen*." Logan remembered that money in Japan was different. He had only brought 500 Canadian Dollars.
"Don't worry I got it," Jonouch paid Yugi.
"Oh, you don't have to-" Logan started.
"Ah, don't worry man. It's ok," Jonouchi interjected.
"Thank you"
"Don't worry about it. Hey, let me introduce myself. I'm Katsuya Jonouchi. That's Hiroto Honda, and that's Ryuji Otogi. Oh and that's Mazaki Anzu."
"Oh, and I'm Ryou Bakura."
"Nice to meet you all, I'm Logan, this is Nathan, Luke, and Ethan; and this is my little sister E-"
"Older sister!" Emma sternly corrected him.
Logan sighed, "and my older sister Emma. We're here to study businesses. I'm studying KaibaCorp."
"Hey, can I study your business Yugi?" Emma asked.
"Well, sure. I don't see why not." Yugi said.
"Hey, Yugi," Logan caught Yugi's attention, "there aren't any hotels open in Domino City and I was wondering-"
"-If you could spend the night. Well, I'm not sure of it-"
"-It's ok," Yugi's grandfather walk in the room, "I have some rooms with bunkbeds to spare. Besides, I overheard that you want to study Yugi's Game Shop."
"Grandpa, you sure?"
"Oh why not. Besides, I don't want to have more people asking, 'can we spend the night?' It's annoying." Yugi's grandfather took the open/closed sign and switched it the 'Closed'.

"Hey Yug', do ya mind having that practice duel now?"
"Well sure Jonouchi. You got your deck?"
"Yep." Jonouchi checked his deck, now with Black Rose Dragon in it.
"Hey can we watch?" Logan asked.
"Sure."
Duel START-
Life Points
Yugi - 2000
Jonouchi - 2000
The two shuffled their decks and drew 5 cards each.
"Rock, paper, scissors to see who goes first."
"Rock. Paper. Scissors!" Yugi picked rock. Jonouchi picked paper.
"Your turn Jonouchi." Yugi said.
Jonouchi drew a card and looked at his hand.
{Jonouchi's Current Hand:: Time Wizard, 7 Coloured Fish, Dark Hole, Fake Trap, Baby Dragon, Sangan}
'Time Wizard and Baby Dragon in one draw, that's lucky. If only I had Polymerization,' Jonouchi thought to himself.
Jonouchi thought for a few seconds then summoned 7 Coloured Fish [Lvl4;ATK 1800/DEF 800] in Defense Mode.
Yugi drew a card. {Yugi's Current Hand:: Mystical Elf, Kuriboh, Watapon, Breaker the Magical Warrior, Double Spell, Sangan}
Yugi laid down "Double Spell" facedown and summoned "Mystical Elf [Lvl4;ATK 800/DEF 2000]"in defence mode.
"I end my turn like that, Jonouchi. Your turn, " Yugi said cheerfully.
Jonouchi drew a card, "Hmm," {Jonouchi's current hand:: Monster Reborn, Time Wizard, Dark Hole, Fake Trap, Baby Dragon, and Sangan}, "I'll set this card in face-down defence. Than I'll play one card face down. All right, your move, Yug'."
Yugi drew {Yugi's current hand:: Mirror Force, Kuriboh, Watapon, Breaker the Magical Warrior, and Sangan}, "I lay down one card face down and end my turn like that."
Jonouchi acknowledged Yugi with a slight nod and drew a card {Jonouchi's current hand:: Fissure, Monster Reborn, Dark Hole, Sangan, and Baby Dragon}. "Alright, I'll use Fissure on your Mystical Elf!" Mystical Elf was helpless and was sent to the graveyard immediately. "Alright! Now attack directly with 7 Coloured Fish."
Life Points
Yugi:: 200
Jonochi:: 2000
"I end my turn."
Yugi drew a card {Yugi's current hand:: Swords of Revealing Light, Kurioh, Watapon, Breaker the Magical Warrior, and Sangan}. "Good move Jonouchi! Alright, I use Swords of Revealing Light[3 turns] to stall for my big event. I end my turn."
Jonouchi drew a card {Jonouchi's current hand:: Polymerization, Monster Reborn, Dark Hole, Sangan, and Baby Dragon} Jonouchi became enthusiastic, "Alright! This is perfect, I don't need Black Rose Dragon now that I have," Jonouchi summoned Baby Dragon on the field, "Baby Dragon, now I use Polymerization to fuse Baby Dragon and Time Wizard to form," Jonouchi got Thousand Dragon from his extra deck and summoned it, "Thousand Dragon! [Lvl7;ATK 2400/DEF 2000]. Now all I have to do is wait a couple turns and I I'll be able to defeat ya Yug'."
(Yugi's turn) Yugi drew a card {Yugi's current hand:: Dark Magican, Kuriboh, Watapon, Breaker the Magical Warrior, and Sangan} "I summon Watapon [Lvl1;ATK 200/DEF 300] to the field and end."
Jonouchi drew a card. Jonouchi was puzzled. {Jonouchi's current hand:: De-Spell , Monster Reborn, Dark Hole, and Sangan} Jonouchi looked at his cards for a second. "I pass my turn." This sort of supprised Logan.
Yugi drew a card. {Yugi's currnet hand:: Dark Magican, Kuriboh, Breaker the Magical Warrior, and Sangan} "I summon Sangan and tribute the monsters on my field to summon Dark Magician in defence mode [Lvl7;ATK 2500/DEF 2100] and end my turn. With my turns ending, Swords of Revealing Light is gone."
Jonouchi drew a card. "I attack your Dark Magicain with Thousand Dragon."
"Not so fast, I use Mirror Force to redirect the attack at you."
"Ah crap! I forgot about you having face downs. Oh well. You win Yugi."
