The wind blow gently as the gang stood on the school roof top discussing the new tournament.

"What did this woman say, Yami?" Yugi asked as they and the rest of the gang stood facing the ocean view.

"She said that if I enter this tournament, I will find out about my past and help defeat this gang called the Rare Hunters."

"Well," Joey said as he hung his arm around Yami's neck gently. "Since your entering, I will also."

"So will I," Yugi smiled.

"We aren't much of a duellist but Tea and I will support you three all the way." Tristan said.

Yami smiled at the amount of support he got and thought, these are the best friends anyone could ask for.

"Yami," Yugi pointed out. "Do you know the only reason Kabia's having this tournament, is to get your title and embarrass you in front of the world."

"I figured since he wrote a note saying the same thing you said." Yami laughed. "Kabia's a good duellist but has an ego the size of Russia. That cares about no one but himself."

The gang laughed before Yugi with his troublesome nature asked, "Tea, why are you wearing Yami's chocker?"

Tea blushed as she tried to find the words, "It's just for a fashion statement."

"Or you could be covering the hickey, on your neck," Tristan grinned. "Don't think we didn't hear you and Yami down in the library, yesterday." (PS: They where making out in the least popular section of the library.)

Yami looked at his blushing girlfriend and smiled as he walked over to her before giving her a small kiss.

"Love you." Yami said.

"Love you, too." Tea gave him another kiss.


As the fireworks exploded onto the daylight sky the tournament began. Kabia had explained the rules.

"We have two days to get six locater cards and we will meet back here at 5:00" Yami said.

"Sir yes, Sir." Yugi and Joey joked before running off till Yami asked, "Where are Tristan and Tea?"

"Tristan is with my sister and Tea we don't know." Joey answered in a yell.

Yami took out his phone and called Tea.

"Hello?" A sheepish voice said.

"Hello, sleeping beauty." Yami said, "I am waiting for you at Domino square."

"Oh shit, I overslept! I am so sorry Yami. I will be there in an half and hour." Tea said.

"I will wait for you, my love"

"You don't need to Yami, you can go on and I will meet you there."

"I will see you later, my queen" Yami answered before both hung up the phone.

Tea blushed she knew that Yami loved her very much and called her his girlfriend but to call her his queen was another thing.

"Yami is the greatest boyfriend ever and I never thought I would have such a wonderful person like him." Tea jumped off her bed and rush into her bathroom.


As Yami walk thought the town happy that he won his first locater card but began to worry about Tea. The last time he talks to her was an hour and a half ago and when he tried calling her all he got was voice mailbox.

As his thoughts wondered a voice from behind said him, "Pharaoh, I finally found you."

Yami looked around to see a man in a black cloak and light blonde hair with black eyes.

"Who are you?" Yami asked.

"I am one of the rare hunters and once I defeat you Master Marik will be pleased."

"All right rare hunter I accept your challenge." Yami said in his usual clam tone.

"Let's Duel!" They both said.


"I play Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast now attacks then destroy Stone Statue of the Aztecs" Yami said.

As the rare hunter drew a card Yami activated Trap Card Time Seal to skip Seeker's Draw Phase.

"I activate Lightforce Sword." Yami said

The real version of this card is a Trap Card to remove 1 random card from Seeker's hand from play for three turns.

Yami Yugi removed the right arm of the Forbidden One from Seeker's.

"Now I sacrifice Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast to summon the Summoned Skull in attack position." Yami said

(2500 ATK / 1200 DEF).

Summoned Skull attacked then destroyed Gear Golem, the Moving Fortress.

"I activate Swords of Revealing Light, to prevent every monster you control from attacking for the next three turns." The rare hunter reacted upset.

Yami drew then passed.

Seeker drew then passed.

Yami place one card then summoned Alpha the Magnet Warrior. (1400 ATK / 1700 DEF).

"I summon the head of Exodia, in defense position." Rare hunter became desperate. (1000 ATK / 1000 DEF).

Yami activated Chain Destruction, to destroy every copy of Head of Exodia in Seeker's deck and hand then activated Dust Tornado to destroy Swords of Revealing Light.

"I activate Monster Reborn to summon Chimera, the Flying Mythical Beast in attack position." (2100 ATK / 1800 DEF).

Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast attacked then destroyed the Head of Exodia.

Summoned Skull attacked the Seeker

(Seeker: 4000 → 1500 Life Points).

Alpha, The Magnet Warrior attacked the Seeker then gained 200 ATK from Summoned Skull

(Alpha the Magnet Warrior: 1400 → 1600 ATK)

(Seeker: 1500 → 0 Life Points)

Alpha, the Magnetic Warrior should have attacked then destroyed Head of Exodia. Afterward, Summoned Skull then Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast" should have attacked Seeker instead.

Yami won.

"I lost, Master Marik will not be pleased." The rare hunter cried as he slid down to the ground in defeat.

"It's over hunter, now my I have the two locator cards and your rarest card." Yami said.

Just then a golden eye appeared on the rare hunter's head and he said in a dark voice, "Pharaoh, I see you have defeated one of my servants but beware he was my weakest servant." Marik said.

"Who are you?" Yami became puzzled.

"I am Marik, you fool and with my rod, I can control people's mind. So be warned for I can control even your friend's mind including the one you love, the most." Marik laughed before releasing his control on the servant.

"Tea, Yugi, Joey Tristan and Grandpa." Yami whispered.


Tea walked though the streets of Domino wearing a short blue shirt and a white blouse till she stopped a familiar tri colored hair dueling and ran towards him. Not seeing the rare hunters behind her.

"My minions, watch her for she will be the bait for luring the pharaoh into giving me his puzzle." Marik ordered the three cloaked men though the power of his rod.

"Yes Master Marik." They all said.


"Yami!" a voice called out to him from behind. He turned to see Tea running towards him.

As she stopped in front of him, Yami didn't give her much time to talk as he played his lips onto hers.

Yami hugged her waist bringing her closer to him as they moaned loudly.

When they parted Yami said with worry, "Tea, I missed you."

"I missed you too and I am so sorry, for been late."

Yami hushed her with another kiss and said, "As long as you're here and safe that's all that matters, my love."

"Ready?" Yami looked at Tea.

Tea nodded before holding Yami's hand and both head off for his new challenger.

Tea, I will protect you with my life, if I have to. I care too much about you, more than anything else to let anyone hurt you or the ones we care about. Yami thought.
