Author's Notes: Hi everybody! I'm really glad everyone likes this fic so far. I just wish people would read my other stories and send me ideas how to move them forward. "Animated Legends Unite" & "Virtualegend" are the ones Love and want to move along the most. Though I really, REALLY, need ideas for "Wacky Races 2014"

Whoever knows "You Need My Help and I Need Yours" by BlueStar29, and "Finding Who I Am" by KeelyKelly, please tell me if you think I should do a similar story. I'll see if I can get a poll up, but don't be afraid to leave me a review.

To AnimaniAshley: You asked in a review if I should get Marik involved? Please review my stories "Animated Legends Unite", "Dragonette", & "Virtualegend" In the meantime, this one's for you. ;-)

To gamergirl101: You asked about me getting Dartz in on the action? I'll check your PM. In the meanwhile, could you give me some suggestions: How he finds out about Fan-Fiction, who tells him, what story ideas he comes up with, etc.? Please?

In this chapter, we get to see the start of Marik's story, his reaction to discovering Yugi's and Yami's profiles, his thoughts on he, Yami Bakura, and Yami Yugi being triplets in "You Need My Help and I Need Yours", and Yugi's and Yami's reactions to Marik's profile.

Chapter 4: The Sun, the Dragon, and the Pharaoh

Marik Ishtar sat in the cafe, a laptop up and running. He'd recently been informed by Odion, his aide, (And his older brother by Adoption) that there were people making stuff that poked fun at him: YouTube videos about Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged & Fan-Fictions.

Upon hearing of Fan-Fiction, he had slipped into a state of glee. Perhaps there WAS a way he could become the Pharaoh, and yet still be the sweet, calm, albeit sheltered, boy he was supposed to be.

After following the procedure of creating an account, Pharaoh's Demise, he started work on his story.

The Rightful King appears.

The Shadows surrounded my enemy, the Winged Dragon of Ra appeared to me, engulfed in flames as it took on the form of Egyptian God Phoenix.

"Drain his life points and feed his soul to the shadows my great beast of the sky!" I ordered.

Their pathetic friends cried out in dismay as their bodies wre consumed in the darkness. The Tournament had been mine to win, and I had at long last claimed the ultimate prize: The power of the Pharaoh, Yami. Now the world will cower at my feet.

"Maximillion Pegasus was a fool to create the Egyptian God Cards," I mused as I placed the chain holding the Millennium Puzzle around my neck, "especially my mighty Winged Dragon of Ra." As I walked to the edge of the island, I grinned as I would soon become the Pharaoh.

After uploading his first chapter to the website, Marik found "You Need My Help and I Need Yours" by BlueStar29.

"What's this?"

He carefully read the story, amused at how the author portrayed them, especially the relations between his dark side and Yami and little Yugi. He laughed when he saw that the author had made his dark half a punk, what with all the alcohol he drank, and all the times he got thrown in prison.

"Serves you right for trying to steal Yami's throne and power."

Turtle Game Shop: Moto House

"All right, I think I've come up with the perfect story idea." Yugi said, smiling. He booted up his laptop and began to type.

The sky was a beautiful blue, the breeze felt soft against my skin, and I was about the happiest person I knew of at that time. I'd won the Duelist Kingdom Tournament, my grandpa was safe and sound, and I was making my way home. Joey was still brushing happy tears from his eyes. He was going to help give his sister, Serenity, her sight back.

It felt strange. I was half expecting the entire school to start cheering and chanting my name when I got back to Domino High.

'Dream on, Yugi.' I thought to myself.

"Mmm. I'm rather impressed by this." said Yami as he gazed at Yugi's work.

"Thanks."

After he felt it was complete, Yugi saved his story, closed WordPad, and brought up the Fan-Fiction website. He felt somewhat confident as he uploaded his story, and the mood was only sweetened upon receiving an email welcoming him into the Fan-Fiction community.

"Now I just need to get my own story started." Yami mused aloud.

"Who's Pharaoh's Demise?" Yugi asked, seeing the profile. Yami grimaced.

"I get a terrible feeling about this." Yugi clicked the name, they read the chapter, and the both of them were shocked.

"So Marik is writing Fan-Fiction in which he steals your power and becomes Pharaoh?" Yugi asked, perplexed. Yami could only fume silently, fists clenched so his fingernails dug into his palms.

With Marik

"Millennium Puzzler?" Marik asked, clicking on the name. After reading the chapter, he smiled to himself. Yet he still didn't know who this mysterious author was.

Or did he?

There's one down. Hoping it wasn't too short. Willl try to include Dartz in on the action next chapter. Please read, review, and send ideas for "Wacky Races 2014", "Dragonette", "Animated Legends Unite" & "Virtualegend"

Cheers!
