Phoenix: Hey, I updated quickly! I really like this chapter, with its idea and all. But you may not catch on to the idea yet. YET. Anyway, may I present to you chapter 7:

Chapter 7: Rivalry Revealed

"Let's start!"

With that, James and Kari both took cards from their deck and started. They were sitting in the park at a table with their decks and cards spread on it. James surprisingly had a duel disk, but Kari did not, so they were playing the way people did before those things were invented.

The duel went on, and James had 3000 life points and Kari had 1700. Then that special card showed up in Kari's hand.

Should I play my Blue Eyes White Dragon in front of him? She thought. No, this is just a duel for fun. I won't take it out.

Instead, Kari resorted to the other half of her deck, her spellcasters. "Now, since I used my Dark Magician Girl to wipe out your defense last turn, she can attack you directly. She is equipped with the spell card Black Pendant, so now her attack is 3000!"

James's life points were down to zero. He just sat there until he said, "But I thought that you never knew how to play!"

Kari did a face-palm. "I know how to play. Before, I just didn't have a deck to use."

James opened his mouth to say something, but clapping interrupted him. A girl with red eyes and black hair was standing near the table, apparently watching. Although she didn't seem too enthusiastic about clapping.

"Good job," she said sarcastically. "He looks like someone who's really hard to beat. You must be very bad at dueling to resort to him."

"Hey!" Kari said, standing up. "He's not that bad, and I won with strategy!"

"Whatever you say," the girl shrugged. "It's not like you could beat me, anyway."

"Is that a challenge?" Kari threatened.

"Kari, let's not mess with her. We should get going." James said desperately.

"Your name's Kari, is it? Well then," she said as she held up her arm to show a duel disk strapped onto it and turning on, "My name's Akina and I challenge you to a duel!"

"Fine!" Kari nodded. "I just don't have a duel disk to use, though." She looked around, trying to see anyone that had a duel disk she could borrow. After a few seconds, a shadow came over her and she turned to see who was behind her. It was Seto Kaiba himself.

"I was taking a walk and could not help but hear that you are going to duel, Kari." He said in a low voice. He obviously remembered her. "Here. Just don't break it, got it?" he handed her his duel disk to use against Akina.

"Thank you!" Kari replied gratefully. She put it on and faced Akina. "Okay, I'm ready!"

"Let's duel!" They both shouted. And so they began…

It was a close game. Kari was down to 1800 life points and Akina had 2900. Kaiba was watching on the sideline, with a few other spectators who were also in the park. It was Akina's turn and Kari's field was empty.

"And now I use my Fire Angel to attack you directly!" She said. The hologram approached her and left her with only 100 life points. "Turn end." Akina finished.

"My turn," Kari said. She had Blue Eyes in her hand, but she needed one more monster to sacrifice. Please let this draw be a low level monster.

Kari dared look at the draw and saw that it was Sunny Pixie. Perfect. Kari looked up. "Now I sacrifice Sunny Pixie and Maidservant Enchantress to bring out…" She threw down Blue Eyes on the duel disk. "…My Blue Eyes White Dragon!"

Akina stood there, amazed. The amazing dragon hologram roared over the park, and spectators wereshocked. The great dragon breathed an attack and brought Akina's life points down to zero. "But…but…I thought Kaiba had all three and the last one was destroyed!" Akina stammered.

"Wrong! The last one was fixed, and I have it!" Kari said as it faded since the duel was finished.

Kari then walked over to Kaiba to give him back his duel disk. She removed her deck and handed it to him. Kaiba stared at her, motionless. Confused that he wasn't moving, Kari walked up and clipped it on to his arm for him.

"Thank you for letting me borrow it," she said. It took Kaiba a moment to realize Kari was putting his duel disk back on for him, and let her finish doing so until he asked her, "Where did you get that?"

"The Blue Eyes? A friend," she replied. Kaiba saw that she wasn't going to tell him who, so he just said "See you later then."

"You will?" Kari questioned.

"No...I just say that out of habit." He said quickly.

Kari couldn't help it. She burst out laughing and made Kaiba very confused.

"What's so funny?" He said.

"We said these lines before!" She said. "Except I accidentally said "I'll see you later" and you asked me when I was going to see you again."

"Oh, I remember," Kaiba said. "Well…"

"Goodbye, Mr. Kaiba!" Kari waved as she ran off to join James, who was probably going to ask her why she didn't use Blue Eyes in their practice duel. During Kari's duel with Akina, Yugi and his gang showed up. Kari was greeted with smiles and shocked looks.

"Great job in winning your first duel!" Téa said.

"Actually, it was my second. I dueled James."

"He has a deck?" Téa asked with surprise. "And he knows how to duel?"

Kari laughed. At least everyone was on the same page that James was a klutz and the last person they'd expect to be dueling.

"Kari, we're all wondering a few things." Yugi stepped forward. "How did you get a Blue Eyes White Dragon? Kaiba has three and Grandpa has the last one."

"Your grandpa gave it to me. He thinks that I was destined to have it." Kari said, hoping they would know something about this.

"But why? Why would he give such an important card to him away? Unless…" Yugi said, almost to himself.

"Is your name really Kari?" He finally asked.

Taken aback by this, Kari replied, "No. It's Kisara."

Everyone, excluding James, gasped. They definitely knew something that Kari did not. She wanted to know what was going on. She wanted answers. Now.

Seto closed his laptop for the day and started thinking. He took a break today and took a walk in the park, only to observe a duel that Kari participated in. Not only that, she that had the fourth Blue Eyes White Dragon. Things stated making so much sense. It had to be the reincarnation of Kisara from thousands of years ago. He saw her and himself in the Pharaoh's memories, and he knew that he was a priest and loved Kisara, and then she gave up her life and became a White Dragon in order to save his. He said it today too, "I'll see you later." He was thinking about the dreams he would have later that night. He had, and still does, dreams about him and Kisara, and he knows that she does too. Maybe fate was trying to tell him something...

Phoenix: I'm really happy with how this chapter came out. So a new rival comes along, Akina (Akina Sachi, I named this character after you), and she has red eyes and black hair. Seto knows for sure that Kari is the same Kisara from the Pharaoh's memories. How will things turn out? Review please, I live on the stuff! :P
