Joey: All right! Dis is gonna be awesome!
Tea: Yeah,no doubt about.
Tristan: Hey Shikiira,will when will we see you duel?
Yugi: I'm pretty sure that is very soon.
Shikiira:Yup very soon indeed,but for now... Yami!
Yami:Okay! People please note that Shikiira doesn't own Yugioh at all. She's the only one who she does own.
Shikiira:All right guys...
All in unison: LETS ROLL!
Chapter 2
A Package?Dueling In Shadows! -Part 1
"Joey, make a move already!" says Tristan,getting impatient as it's Joey's turn in his Duel against Tea. It had been at least a week sense Yugi beat Kaiba. Ever sense Yugi banished the dark essence in Kaiba,he hasn't been the same. Me and him haven't talked to each other sense then, and honestly ,I'm starting to worry. Even though he was a total jerk and put in the hospital, I still want to be friends. I'm not sure,but sometimes, I swear I could feel his stares,but I'd never look to see. I never could tell whether those stares were that of guilt, or hatred. I just hope he snaps of out of this phase soon.
"Kay," says Joey as he pulls a card from his hand and places it on the dueling mat."Here ya go tough guy. My Rock Ogre's gonna rock your block off." The monster had 800 Atk and 1200 Def. I was starting to wonder what Joey had put in his deck. Tea then reveals the monster she had to face up-defense mode from set defense. It had the same attack as Joey's monster,but only 500 Def. "Hmm,Yeah,Tea,like that wimpy card stands a chance against my giant rock guy. Give it up!" Joey says with a big grin. Of course though,I knew Tea had something planned.
"Guess I don't stand a chance," Tea says reaching for a card in her hand."unless maybe I use" she places a magic card in the spell/trap zone."The Breath of Light card." Joey looked confused at the card."Huh? Can she do that?" I nod to him and explain."She sure can,the Breath of Light card wears down rock types. Erodes them into nothing." Joey's expression then lost it's confident grin and was dumbfounded."Aah!" Tea smiles and declares her victory."And that brings your life points to zero, Joey. Once again,you lose and I rock."
"You stink at this game." says Tristan and Joey groans in response. Does he really have to say that? Joey's still new to the game and he's still learning. He really shouldn't say such things.
"Tristan's right guy's." says Joey leaning over a kids playground pull up bar."I do stink. I can't win at duel monsters just ta save my life. What is it Yugi, Shikiira?Why can't I eva' win? Teach me what I'm doin' wrong." Yugi and I looked over at him as we sat on a another bar next to the one Joey was leaning on. Yugi then jumps down and says"Well lets start by checking your deck, Joey." I quickly followed."Huh? 'Kay" Joeys says as he reaches in his pocket for his deck.
"Here ya go." He then hands it to me."Alright,lets see what ya got." Yugi and I then look through his cards."Pretty powerhouse line up,don't ya think?" Joey asked,making me raise a brow. It was more like the total opposite. He didn't have a single magic or trap card in his deck! And his monsters weren't all that strong either. I knew Yugi was thinking the same thing as his expression mirrored my own."No one could win with these." he says.
"Hate to agree." I say still taking a double look through Joey's deck." Your deck's filled to the brim with nothing but monster cards." A small grin appeared on his face,clearly not getting it."You got it. I packed it with every butt-kickin' monster I could find." Yugi then says" But that's not how the game works." Joey gave him a confused look."Yugi's right ,Joey." I say," Duel monsters is all about combining your cards,and that includes magic and trap cards. Not just monsters." Yugi nods and looks at his cards again while saying."Yeah,and with no magic in your deck,your monsters will get creamed every time."
"Huh?" Joey exclaims as he gets off the bars and walks around them to us and takes Yugi's by the shoulders." See! That's the kind of stuff I need to know. Yugi, Shikiira, ya gotta help me learn more." Yugi looks at him,unsure of what to think,but then gets an Idea,as well as I,and I pretty sure we were thinking the same thing.
After school,Yugi,Joey and I headed to the game shop."My Grandpa's the real game expert in the family. Maybe he could help." Joey then turns to me."But what'a about you, Shikiira? You're the Silver Duelist. The top reigning duelist in America. Can't you teach me anything?" I just gave him a smile,sense my answer was obvious." I can give you some tips,but Mr Muto has been dueling a lot longer than I have,and that's for sure."
We then enter the game shop to find Yugi's grandfather putting up a Duel Monsters' poster on the wall." Hey Grandpa," says Yugi." I brought you an new student." He then turns to us in question."Huh? Student?" Joey smiles and says" I was hoping,since you know more 'bout Duel Monsters than anyone,maybe you'd teach me." Mr Muto then got off the ladder he was standing on."Teach you? Duel monsters is a very complex game."No duh.
"Yeah," the blond replies." Tell me about it. Tea beat me 3 games in a row." Yugi then turned to Joey and says."Actually,Tea beat you 5 times in a row,Joey." I couldn't help but giggle. Ah Yugi,way to go."Huh? 5?" Ah man!" Joey then notices the Duel Monsters poster put up."Hmm. Yes I could teach you to be a great tournament duelist.," says Mr Muto."But only if you're willing to spend endless days and sleepless nights filled with rigorous training." Whoa,way to make it sound extreme.
" Ahh,piece of cake." says Joey,thinking it's going to be nothing. Yugi's Grandfather narrowed his eyes."With an attitude like that, teaching you may not be worth my the effort." Yup,extreeeeeeme. Joey's expression and stance faltered as he said the words."Nice goin' there smart smart mouth." says Yugi turning to him. I couldn't help but giggle again.
Joey then gets on his hands and knees and begs to him."Please Yugi,help me convince him. I will work hard. I promise." Yugi then says to him."Listen Joey, teaching you how to play Duel monsters is too big a challenge,even for my grandfather." Oh my gosh. Things are really starting to get dramatic again.
"It's not impossible." I hear say. Joey then looks at him and asks"Huh? Ya mean it Gramps?" Yugi then says."Joey,he already said he can't do it. And if he can't do it he can't do it." Mr Muto closes an eye and says"I never said I couldn't do it,but if I agree you must work hard." They really take this game seriously don't they?" I'll do anything. I promise-I promise!" looked pleased.
"Hmm,fine. Then we'll begin your instruction immediately my young friend,and believe me," he cracks his knuckles."under my tutelage, you will learn. Now can you name the most powerful duel monster?" Joey doesn't he think."Eh,no."
"Can you name the weakest?"
"No."
"You do know what a trap card is,don't you?"
"Kinda. Uh,I have no idea."
Oh geeze
"Good evening duel fans and our 10 million viewers at home,and welcome to the Duel Monsters Dome! Where tonight,the Duel Monsters regional championship will be decided. Of the 200 duelist,only that have competed in this marathon tournament,only 2 competitors remain standing. Put your cards together for Weevil Underwood,the Bug Brawler,and his opponent,the number-one-ranked Rex Raptor, Dino-duelist! "Blared the T.V. The gang and I were at Yugi's watching the regional tournament. I've been looking forward to it all week.
"Bug-Boy versus Dinosaur-Breath."Says Joey, for some reason,not believing what he's seeing."What kind of match is that?That should have me in there."I rolled my eyes smiling at him."I know you've been training for weeks,"Says Tea turning to him."But those guys are in another league. Your just not ready yet." I nodded in agreement." Yeah,Joey,one doesn't become a big duelist over a months course."Though his cockiness always seems to get the better of him.
"Sure,rub it in." But then Yugi says."And on top of that,your so tired,you can't keep your eyes open." Joey's eyes were closed,and is he...snoring? "I think grandpa's lessons have been a bit to touch for him." With the way he takes Duel Monsters,that ain't a joke.
"Ya see it's true what they say."Says Tristan,watching Joey doze off."You snooze, you lose!"Joey then opens his eyes and gave the spiked brunette an annoyed look,apparently he wasn't really asleep. He sighs and hangs his head."I must have been nuts to ever think I could learn this crazy game."
"Time for your lesson." we all hear a voice say.
We looked behind us to see it was Mr Muto holding some package."Wha- we're not done!?" Joey cries only for Yugi's grandfather to reply with,"Not by a long shot. You slacker." Joeys groans as he continues."Now quit whining,Joseph. I know you've been working long and hard,but you really are coming along as a duelist,and I'm quite proud of you." Joey looked like he was about to cry tears of joy."Gramps,thank you." he then jumps up to hug him,but Mr Muto walks away ,leaving him to fall to the ground. I had to suppress a laugh,only letting out a silent snicker.
"Oh by the way, Yugi. This package came for you." says while walking over to him."A package?"Yugi asks curiously."What is it Gramps?" he just replies with a "I don't know. It just came in the mail."Yugi then takes the box from his grandfather and looks at it with mystery."Huh? It's from Industrial Illusions."
My eyes widen."Industrial Illusions you say?" I ask with a gasp."That's the company that founded Duel Monsters. Why would they send you a package,Yugi?" He looked at me unsure."I have no idea. Is it possible they heard I beat the world champion?"
"You mean Kaiba." Tea asks."Yeah,it wasn't an official match or anything,but Kaiba did drop out of the tournament because of me." I frowned at the statement. I wish he had stayed. I still feel sorry for him. Joey didn't think the same."Just hearin' Kaiba's name gives me a headache."
"Whoa!" says Tristan who was watching what was going on in the tournament."Raptor just stomped Weevil!" Joey then asks"Yugi, Shikiira, are these guys any good?" I know for a fact they are."Oh yeah" says Yugi."They're both pretty tough customers." I nod in agreement." Yup, Weevil uses a deck based on insect monsters and uses sneaky strategies."Yugi carries my line."Then you've got Rex Raptor and his dinosaur cards. He uses their power to overwhelm his opponents."Joey seemed a bit doubtful."Itsy-bitsy bugs against duelin'-dinosuars?Raptor has got this one in the bag." Yugi and I though, thought otherwise." I don't think so,power ain't everything."I say
"All right,Weevil." says Raptor pretty confident about himself. He then places a monster down in attack mode."Consider yourself dinosaur chow!" His monster had 1600 Atk and 1200 Def.
"Oh and Raptor plays the strongest card in his deck,the Terrible Two-Headed King Rex!Looks like this match could be over right here,right now!"
-Commercials-
"We're back monster fans,and with 2-Headed King Rex in play,it looks like this duel is all done."
"Your move."Says Rex,and Weevil just snickers. "Hehehehe,and all I have is this weak little bug." he says placing a monster in attack mode.
"Weevil Underwood counters with a Basic Insect card." The Insect monster only had 500 Atk and only 700 Def.
"He plays a wimpy bug against a giant dinosaur?" I hear Joey ask,clearly not impressed."The place will be covered in bug guts." Yugi and I thought differently."Maybe,"says Yugi."but I wouldn't underestimate Weevil."
"King Rex,lets take this championship. Stomp 'em" Says Raptor, commanding his monster to attack.
"Hehehe,you've attack your way into my trap,but then,how could your tiny dinosaur-brain know,when an enemy attacks,my Vortex activates!"Weevil reveals.
"Oh no! It's a trap card!"Raptor gasps.
"Which totally traps your King Rex in it's inescapable embrace!" Says Weevil as Raptor's monster is now trapped within a yellow column of wind."No! My King Rex!" cries Raptor.
"And while he's trapped."Weevil continues while holding up a magic card."I'll upgrade my Basic Insect by giving him Armor with Laser Cannon." He then places the card down and a cannon appears on his monster's back."Not such a weak little bug after all ,hmmm?Attack!" Basic Insect then fires a laser at King Rex,obliterating it."And King Rex is extinct." Raptor couldn't believe it."Wow,beaten by a bug."
"A stunning upset by Weevil Underwood,our newest champion!"
Joey also couldn't believe it."Man,King Rex squashed by an insect?"
"And now a very special honor for our new champion. Here to present the Duel Monsters championship trophy,the creator of Duel Monsters and the president of Industrial Illusions,ladies and gentlemen and fellow duelist,I give you Mr. Maximillion Pegasus!" Longest...introduction...ever.
From a trap door in the floor of the stadium,said person rose. He then walked over and knelt down to Weevil and handed him his trophy."Congratulations." Weevil nervously took it with a"Uh,Thank you." Pegasus then tells him."As a regional champion,I invite you to compete in a bold new tournament I'm hosting at Duelist Kingdom."
"Ha!" says Mr Muto ."With all the excitement of the championships,you forgot to open your package ,Yugi." Oh yeah! That,we totally forgot about it. I wonder what's in it."What could it be?"Yugi wonders as we all look at the box. He then opens it and inside are things that made me curious as to what they are for. There was a glove with a bracelet lined with 10 star-shaped slots,2 star-shaped chips,and a video tape."Some kind of glove."Tea says,looking at the items."And stars."Joey adds."Maybe there's an explanation on the video." Tristan guessed. Yugi then picked up the tape and looked at it curiously."Pop it in and check it out."says Joey,equally curious."Okay." Yugi did as so.
At first nothing but a pixel buzzing screen shown along with hearing static,but the screen slowly faded into color and on the screen was a man with polished light gray hair with part of it covering his left eye. It was...Maximilion Pegasus himself."Greetings,little Yugi. I am Maximillion Pegasus." We all went wide eyed."Pegasus!?" Joey gasped."We all just saw him on T.V."says Tea. Mr Muto couldn't believe it and was surprised as well."The famous Maximillion Pegasus sends greetings to my Yugi?"
"I have heard some terribly interesting things about you,Yugi."Yugi stared at the screen in question."Your impressive defeat of Seto Kaiba intrigued me so much,I've decided to investigate your amazing dueling skills personally. Right here,right now,we shall hold a special duel."I raised a brow. How is he going to do that?"We'll have a strict time limit of 15 minutes,and when time's up,the player with the highest life points will be the winner. Are you ready?"
The others looked just as confused as I was. How in the world is he supposed to duel against a video tape?"Wha-"exclaims Joey."He can't seriously expect you to fight a duel against a video?" Tristan agreed."That's crazy." We then hear Pegasus chuckle. I stared in question. Can he hear us?
"No,it's magic!" Suddenly I see a flash of light appear behind the hair blocking his left eye,and feel a surge of energy bursting through the room. I felt it hit against me but fade as my Millennium Talisman let loose a faint glow. I watch the room grow dark and the gang freeze except Yugi. Instinct kicking in,I rushed over to Yugi's side protectively."Ah! Everything 's growing dark and cold,and the others aren't moving." he then turns to me."Shikiira,what's going on?"
"Yugi..."I say,a little hesitant. I knew very well what this was. It was a Shadow Game. A game that was played during ancient Egyptian times. When I was still with the Pharaoh and the others."I can't really say." Yugi then turned to Pegasus on the T.V and demanded."What have you done to them!?Where have you taken us!?"
Pegasus chuckled again,but that soon stopped as his eyes fell upon me...then my Talisman. His eyes narrowed."I see Yugi's not the only one with a Millennium item. I guess that explains why my magic didn't work on you, Little Shikiira." Yugi gasped and turned to me."You have an Item?" I gritted my teeth but gave him a nod but keep my gaze on Pegasus,my eyes narrow."Why don't you tell us what you've done ,Pegasus?" He chuckled again."We're no longer in the world you know,but I will return you after our game." Oh, really assuring."Then it's time to duel!" says Yugi,glaring at him.
I felt another surge of energy as I felt the Pharaoh take over Yugi,his Puzzle and my Talisman glowing in sync."YUGIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!" Again before me was my old friend."Start the clock and make your move,Pegasus." I hear his deep voice say. I felt at ease as he spoke.
LP-Pegasus 2000/Yugi 2000
Pegasus smirked."Certainly,let's begin." The clock was then set and both set of their decks and mats."Nervous,Yugi-boy?" He asks as he places down a card in the spell/trap zone."You should be. You have never faced a duelist like me before." Oh no duh,why must every one be so dramatic!?"You may be good."Says the Pharaoh as he draws a card." I assure you I am."Yugi then takes a card from his hand."But I will beat you to save my friends."
I then felt a faint trail of energy flowing from Pegasus to the Pharaoh,along with a faint glow behind Pegasus polished gray strands. What was he doing?"You'll never save anyone with that dragon card." The Pharaoh and I gasp."How-?" I saw that the Pharaoh did indeed have a dragon monster. The Koumori Dragon with 1500 attack and 1200 Def.
Was he reading his mind? If he knew of the Millennium Items,then was it possible he had one himself? All items have their own abilities. Mine was that it amplified my magic and could sense other items. So which would he have? If he is reading the Pharaoh's mind,then what Item does he have? Come on think! You know this!
"I told you," Says Pegasus."you've never faced anyone like me before. I know every move you'll make before you can even make it." The Pharaoh narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth."Knowing every move you'll make gives me a distinct advantage,wouldn't you say?" What a cheat! How dare he use the power of a Millennium Item in such a way! "What?!"
Pegasus smirk grew."For example,I can anticipate your next play and counter it with this Dragon Capture Jar." He says holding up the card he had face down. It flashed forcing me and the Pharaoh to shield our eyes."It will draw out your Koumori Dragon from your card and imprison the beast." The dragon then appeared above it's card ,then disintegrated into a purple smoke and was sucked into Pegasus's card."Trapped,never to be played against me."
I glared at him. Using the power of an Item in such a way was unforgivable. There was no doubt ,he had one,and was using it to deceive others. I wish I could do something!I could try blocking his magic trail,but then what would he do if he knew I was? It wouldn't end well. But' I doubt all this will end well any way. I hate being useless.
I suddenly felt some energy hit me again,but I immediately pushed it back with my magic,my Talisman glowing faintly again in response. Pegasus narrowed his eyes at me. He was trying to read my mind! But why? Was it because I had an Item?
" This dark dimensional place is known as the Shadow Realm. "Pegasus explained as he draws a card and looks at it."A place where mystical place monsters can be summoned and the impossible is quite possible." The Pharaoh couldn't believe it."But what you're telling me can't be true."
"Tell me Yugi, Shikiira, do you believe there is magic in these cards?" If he means by the heart of cards,yes,if he means the cards themselves,no,the history behind them,yes,so basically I sorta do. The Pharaoh then pulled a card from his hand."Don't you know? You invented this game."
"What if I told you I didn't." The Pharaoh gasped,but I remained un-phased sense I knew what he was talking about. "In ancient times,the Egyptian's called this the Shadow Game. Powerful Pharaohs would hold mystical duels in other dimensions,just as we're doing now,but not with cards. They battled with real monsters, and real magic. Magical forces so powerful, the Egyptians lost control of them and nearly destroyed the entire world." The Pharaoh still didn't want to believe.
"It's a good story ,Pegasus. But these monsters can't be real." Suddenly a blast of smoke appears on the field."Tell that to my Dragon-Piper. As it's Flute of Resurrection frees your Koumori Dragon,but puts him under my control." The dragon then appears,now bearing it's fangs at it's previous master."I have to counter attack!Silver fang!" A silver wolf then appears on Yugi's side of the field,but it was immediately destroyed as it was too weak against Koumori. Me and the Pharaoh shielded our eyes as the hot flames almost tickled us."Gra,the heat!"
LP- Pegasus 2000/ Yugi 1500
"Ha! As you see,Yugi, these monsters are very real,hehehehehe. And also quite dangerous,hehehehehe." Pegasus laughed, making me harden my glare at him."Ah, Yugi-boy. You really are quite entertaining,the way you scowl and sneer." I rolled my eyes and say."Who wouldn't up against a total cheat. If you're really as good as you say,then you'd battle with out such magic." He narrowed his eyes at my remark."And Little-Shikiira,so defiant ,yet so...useless." his smirk grew again. I grit my teeth,he was right. And I hate that.
"But,Yugi,your also completely ignorant about your Millennium Puzzle." The Pharaoh stared in question."What?" Again,Pegasus began to story tell once more."5,000 years ago a powerful Pharaoh locked the magic of the Shadow Games away." The Pharaoh then asks."What does this have to do with me?" Pegasus continued."The Pharaoh captured these vast magical energies in 7 mystical Millennium Items." Though now I have been brought to believe that there is really 8. Pegasus thought as his eyes laid on me. That medallion of hers,or talisman I'm guessing,wasn't mention in the scripts. Was this one kept a secret?
"7 Items?" The Pharaoh asked curiously."Your saying that my Puzzle's one of them?" A smile appeared on Pegasus's face."Yes,and there are magical energies locked within it. Magic that could change your life forever if you only knew how to unleash it." The Pharaoh was still skeptical."But why are you telling me this." The reason Pegasus gave was true."Why,simply because I need you to know." It was true,he did need to know,and I was the one that had to tell him everything. But I just can't yet,not now..." I bet Shikiira knows a few things or two about the Millennium Items,considering she's able to use the magic of her own."
The Pharaoh turned to me and eyed me with suspicion."Shikiira ,is what he's saying true?" I was hesitant to answer , but gave him a nod."Yes,but I can't explain now,time is running out."
"Indeed, Shikiira,the clock is still ticking." He says placing a card in the spell/trap zone."So I propose we resume playing our little duel." While the Pharaoh was figuring out what to do next I saw the Pharaoh push the hair over his face out of the way revealing...the Millennium Eye! That's the one he had! He was reading the Pharaohs mind! I saw the Pharaoh start to pull a card from his hand,Zombie Warrior. I immediately reacted.
"Don't play that one!"I say,putting a hand on his. He turned to me in question,clearly not getting why I stopped him."He knows you'll play it and knows exactly how to counter it!" He then realized I was right as he turned back to Pegasus and gritted his teeth."That golden eye he has is known as the Millennium Eye. He's been disgracing it's power to read your mind and cheat. He even tried to do so to me,but I was able to counter it with my own." Pegasus narrowed his eyes again at me,not so happy I knew what he was doing and how.
"Hurry up now Yugi-Boy. Time is running out for you and your friends." Pharaoh was still trying to figure out what to do." Try just playing cards from your deck. He wont' be able to figure out how to counter it right away if you play it quickly." I say. "Remember to believe." The Pharaoh nodded and drew a card ,then placed it in the monster card zone with out looking at it.
"I already know you plan to play the Zombie Warrior," Says Pegasus, okay did he seriously not hear a word I just said,or was he so caught up in his moment he didn't pay attention?"And I'm already prepared to counter it with a trap card that makes even zombies lie down and play dead." Yup, he was so oblivious to what we just planned."Not this time. Did you not hear a word Shikiira said?We figured out your little game, Pegasus. You may be able to read my mind to see the cards in my hand,but you can't see the cards I pull from my deck."
Pegasus narrows his eyes as the Pharaoh plays his card."My next card is...The Dark Magician." Alright! Now Pegasus is gonna get it! But, unfortunately Pegasus was un-phased and mocks the Pharaoh."Oh, a big,scary Dark Magician." I narrowed my eyes ,how childish."Mock me all you like,Pegasus. But my magician will destroy that dragon!" Pegasus didn't seem to care."Go right ahead if you think it'll help." I let out a slight laugh."It'll do more than help him Pegasus. In doing so he'll be able to take the lead,and as long as he play's it safe,he'll win this duel and saving our friends."
Pegasus still didn't seem to care. It's like he's saying he's already won. What is he up to?"If it can do all that,by all means play it." And he did as so as the Dark Magician emerged from it's card."Dark Magician,"The Pharaoh commands."Dark Magic Attack!" The Dark Magician then trusts his palm forward,sending and dark energy that I could feel,shatter Koumori Dragon, taking down a large chunk of Pegasus's life points.
LP-Pegasus 1200/Yugi 1500
After shielding his eyes from that blast,Pegasus laughs like a mad man. "Hahahaha,nicely played,but by using your Dark Magician,you've let me manipulate you once again." What? How? Did he some how figure out the that it was the Dark Magician before even the Pharaoh could look at it?"By playing that one card,you have insured my victory." Me and the Pharaoh couldn't believe it."No..." But all Pegasus says is,"We shall see,Yugi."
Pegasus then draws a card and his eyes widen as he looks at it."Oh,a very rare card." He then shows the card to us."This is the fearsome Faceless Mage." Rare indeed ,first time I've seen or even heard of such a card. The Pharaoh seems to think the same."I've never seen that card before,but my Dark Magician is one of the strongest spell-caster monsters in the game." Pegasus then reveals a magic card."But how will he fare once I combine my Faceless Mage with the equally rare Eye of Illussion?" His monster emerged form it's card."Dark Magician..." I realized now what he was up to."Wait! Don't do it! It's a trap!"
"Dark Magic Attack!" To late ,the Dark Magician then thrusts his hand forward again,but the attack fails as the magic card Pegasus played to effect. There was a bright yellow glow that both of us had to shield our eyes from. I heard Pegasus chuckle as the smoked cleared. The two monsters remained unscathed,or so it looked. I knew that card must have done something more than negate the attack."My attack had no effect at all,his Faceless Mage should have been destroyed,but it's still standing and we're I'm running out of time."
He was right,there was now five minutes on the clock. I saw the Pharaoh grit his teeth. He then reached to his deck and drew again. He looked at it and played a monster in attack mode."I attack your combo with the Celtic Guardian! This mighty warrior will cut your Faceless Mage down to size." The elf swordsman monster then appeared on the field, having 1400 Atk and 1200 Def.
"True,your elf is mighty,but you have once again underestimated the incredible power of my Eye if Illusion. Hahaha!" I gasped while the Pharaoh cried out."No!" Pegasus then commanded,"Dark Magic Attack!" Celtic Gaurdian was then hit with a force and shattered. Wait,hold on, that didn't seem right."But that's impossible!" The Pharaoh says as his life points drop."The Faceless Mage doesn't have a Dark Magic Attack."
LP-Pegasus 1200 /Yugi 400
But then a figure appeared next to the Faceless Mage,and not just any figure, it was the Dark Magician with the Eye of Illusion glowing on his chest,his eyes blank. Pegasus must have taken control of him!"Well,Yugi,our time together is nearly up ,"Says Pegasus while he places a card face down in the spell/trap zone ."and as I have more life more life points than you,it appears I am the victor." He then claps his hands as if he's saying 'Good game.' 10 seconds left. The Pharaoh had to think fast.
"Time's not up yet ,Pegasus,and you've left your Faceless Mage vulnerable to a physical assault." Says the Pharaoh,holding up a powerful monster card."Summoned Skull! Attack!" 3...Summoned Skull then emerges...2...and it charges for attack...1...almost...0. Suddenly the monsters disappeared as the game ended. NO! He almost had it!"Hmmm,well,we've run out of time,but how close was that?" Oh no DUH!"If you had been able to complete that attack,I would have lost. But I didn't,did I?" He only won because he cheated. If he hadn't been this would have been an entirely different duel.
"I have taken the measure of your talents this day,Yugi Muto,and when next we duel,we shall play for far higher stakes." The Pharaoh,nor I, wouldn't have it." We're done playing your games." I say,clearly angered at him for his fowl-play. Pegasus wagged his finger at us."Tsk,tsk,tsk. You presume I'm giving you a choice in the matter,but I'm not." He then pulled his hair to reveal his Eye again. Oh now,now what is he doing?"For as Shikiira said, I too posses one of the 7 Millennium items -the all powerful Millennium Eye. And now I'll show you the true extent of its magic." It glowed and shot a golden beam of light from the T.V, and land onto Mr Muto!"You see,I have found that,given the proper incentive,anyone can be made to play my game." Mr Muto's soul then rose from his body and flew straight into the T.V! Me and the Pharaoh gasped. Pegasus faded and then a faulty screen of Yugi's grandfather appeared!
"YUGI!" He had cried out with static. The Pharaoh suddenly switched with Yugi as he jumped up to the T.V."Granpa!" I felt the dark magic fade from the room as we heard Pegasus voice one last time."Yes Yugi,how else will you ever reclaim your grandfather's soul? Hahahahahaha!" Mr Muto had fallen to the ground when everything else returned to normal. Yugi had started shaking the T.V while calling out for his grandfather.
No...just no...how dare he go to such levels! Taking Mr Muti captive like that! I swear to you Pegasus,that you will regret this. By the mark on the back-side of my right hand,I do swear!
End of Chapter 2
Authors note-
Shikiira: Oh no! What are we gonna do now!
