"Greetings Duellist and welcome to the Duellist Kingdom competition. Congratulations to all of you here, you are the cream de la cream. The best above the rest, good luck to you all and remember; only the top four are aloud to enter the castle. Each duelist has to have ten star chips in all to come in and you have forty eight hours to do so." Pegasus said never taking his eye off Yami.
Yami, boy, I see you have made it, and at the end of the tournament your soul and puzzle will be mine. Pegasus thought before finishing, "You have an hour to finish preparing and rest before it begins."
You're going down Pegasus, this I vow. Yami thought, not releasing that his hands were working their way around Tea's waist.
What's this warm comfortable feeling, I am suddenly feeling? Tea thought not releasing Yami had held her tightly.
"Break it you two love birds, and get a room." Joey said, watching the two teenagers.
The rest of the guys looked around while Yami and Tea looked down to see Yami's arms securely around her petite waist.
"Sorry Tea," Yami blushed.
"No problem Yami." Tea blushed as well.
As the gang walked onto a meadow Joey asked, "Yami, who are you going to duel first?"
"Weevil! I am going to kick that little bug's butt." Yami replied.
Fireworks exploded into the sky, signaling the start of the competition. "Let's go find that little worm." Yami said.
"Oh Yami, here I am." Weevil said from behind them.
"Weevil, let's duel." Yami said.
"Catch me if you can." He grinned before running away.
The gang ran after him while Tristan asked, "That little worm has been dying to duel you, since we left the boat. So why is he running?"
"Who knows, but we will find out soon enough." Yugi answered for Yami.
After a few moments Weevil stopped in the middle of an open area, grinning widely. The gang stopped soon after and Yami said, "It's time Weevil, for you to answer for what you did on the boat. It's time to duel!"
"I accept you challenge." Weevil said before the ground began to tremble and a huge blue arena came out of the ground.
"These aren't like the duels back home." Joey said.
Weevil jumped onto one of the dueling platforms, which rises into position and Yami stepped onto the other platform.
"Once you lose your only star chip, I will be reasonable for getting rid of the great, Yami Mutou." Weevil laughed.
"Weevil, how about we make it an all or nothing match. If I lose I will give you my deck and star chip and when you lose, you will hand over your two star chips."
"I accept your challenge! You moron!" Weevil said.
"Hey there is a duel going on over here." A boy said from the trees. "But who is that guy?" he pointed to Yami.
"That's Yami Mutou, the one who beat Kaiba, and one of my best friend, and these two are the funny sidekicks" Joey pointed to Tristan and Tea.
The two sweats dropped as they almost hit the ground.
"Let's duel!" Both Weevil and Yami said before Weevil drew a card. "I summon Killer Needle, in attack mode." (1200 ATK/ 1000 DEF)
Yami drew his card and said, "I summon, Mammoth Graveyard in Attack Position."
(1200 ATK / 800 DEF).
"Mammoth Graveyard, attack Killer Needle!" Although both monsters have the same amount of Attack Points Killer Needle destroyed Mammoth Graveyard without being destroyed.
"You see Killer Needle gains a field power bonus for being in the Forest!" Weevil explained (30% of the monster's original ATK and DEF are increased, Killer Needle: 1200 → 1560 ATK / 1000 → 1300 DEF).
After this explanation, Killer Needle is destroyed. "What?" Weevil looked surprised.

"Yami, you won!" Tea said as the platform went down.
"It was thanks to your support." Yami said as he walked over to Tea while blushing.
"Hey! What about us?" Joey asked as he watched the two love birds in action.
"Thanks to you guys as well." Yami blush even harder before walking over to Weevil.
"I believe you have two star chips, for me," Yami said.
"And your dueling glove, if you don't mind." Yugi said as he removed the glove from Weevil's arm.
"That's three star chips and I would like for you to have one." Yami said towards Joey.
"I couldn't take it Yami, it's yours." Joey said.
"No, you should have it. And with the three of us in the tournament, we have a better chance of entering the castle and defeat Pegasus" Yami smiled.
"Thanks Yami, you're a true friend." Joey said while tears of joy escape his eyes.
"You're welcome Joey." Yami said as Joey took the star chip.
Yami is such a wonderful and kind person not to mention brave, smart, strong and so handsome. Why would he want to go out with a weakling like me when he can have a strong girl that would protect him and... I am in love with the most wonderful man alive and I can't image another woman with him but me. Tea thought as she watched her friends talking not knowing that Yami was watching her.
She is so beautiful. Her hair, smooth skin, lily scent, She is the most beautiful, smartest and caring person I ever known not to mention strong. I am falling for my best friend and I am chicken to tell her. Yami thought.
