"Mr. Pegasus, some unfortunate news regarding the Eliminator you sent to defeat Yugi Muto. It seems he was defeated in a duel." explained a man in a suit. "In addition, Seto Kaiba's body was never found and so it seems likely that he in fact survived the fall although his house is under surveillance. If he attempts to return, we'll be made aware of it."

"You say this as though I was unaware of the situation." Pegasus pointed out before taking a sip of a glass of wine. "That being said, it seems we have some uninvited guests."

"Should we have one of the remaining Eliminators handle the situation?" the suited man inquired.

"No, Bandit Keith may prove useful to us. Give him an offer and two Star Chips, if he manages to defeat miss Dreemurr in a match I'll provide him with one third of the prize money for the tournament." Pegasys answered calmly. "I'm interested in seeing how she fares against a former champion."

The suited man nodded. "Of course, I'll see to it that he's informed of your generous offer."

With those words the suited man walked off as Pegasus smirked.

"You've proven yourself to be rather skilled so far, but if you're going to defeat Yugi-boy for me I'll have to push you to your absolute limits. It's the least you can do after I generously created one-of-a-kind cards for you." Pegasus noted calmly.

"You three aren't doing that bad." smirked a man wearing a bandanna. "With my advice you'll be sure to make it to the finals."

"Sounds good, and whichever one of us wins splits the prize money with you right boss?" asked another man.

"Exactly, trust me do exactly as I say and…" the bandanna wearing man started only for his eyes to widen when a suited man approached him.

"Bandit Keith, Mr. Pegasus has an offer for you." the suited man told him.

The bandanna wearing man frowned. "What does Pegasus want with me?"

"He'd like to offer you a chance to get one third of the tournament prize money immediately." the suited man answered holding out two Star Chips. "Find one of two duelists on the island named either Frisk Dreemurr or Chara Dreemurr and defeat either one of them. Do that and bring back four star chips and Mr. Pegasus will give you the money no questions asked."

"I've never heard of them, what's Pegasus planning?" Bandit Keith questioned.

"If you want to know that you'll have to defeat one of them and ask Mr. Pegasus when he provides you the prize money." the suited man answered.

Bandit Keith stared at him before taking the star chips. "Fine, this is going to be the easiest money I've ever made. These two are probably amateurs at best."

The suited man just nodded before turning and walking off.

"You're not really going to trust Pegasus, are you?" asked a pale skinned man. "It has to be some kind of trick or set-up."

"So what if it is, Pegasus played me for a fool once before. One way or the other I'm getting my hands on that prize money." Bandit Keith answered calmly before smirking. "Those brats have no idea what they're in for."

"Still nothing?" asked a man in a suit.

"No, but he has to be somewhere. Mr. Pegasus said to keep looking." answered another man in a suit.

"There's no way he can get back inside, the entire place is being watched." the first suited man pointed out.

The second suited man nodded. "I know, but Mr. Pegasus was very specific in what we need to do here."

Unknown to the two of them Seto Kaiba had already managed to get back into the building and into an underground room with a large computer and was in the process of trying to hack into Duelist Kingdom.

"I can pull up a list of competitors, but if any of them manage to defeat Yugi Muto Pegasus will be able to take control of your company." explained a computerized voice.

"Trust me, defeating Yugi isn't going to be a simple task." Kaiba replied calmly while typing. "Still, knowing who to keep an eye out for on the island will definitely help."

"On the island, you're planning on confronting Pegasus yourself?" the computerized voice inquired. "You know that's exactly what he'd expect you to do right?"

"He took my younger brother hostage, and he's planning on taking over my company." Kaiba pointed out. "I don't intend on sitting back and letting him get away with either one. In fact I…"

Kaiba's eyes narrowed slightly seeing the list of duelists.

"Is something bothering you?" the computerized voice asked.

"Most of these duelists are decent but if Yugi meets them he should be able to handle himself. Though there are two names I've never heard of. Run a background check on these Dreemurr sisters. I may need to take things into my own hands to avoid Pegasus getting what he's after." Kaiba stated simply.

"Of course, though I doubt there's much of anything to find about these…" the computerized voice started only to pause.

"What is it?" Kaiba questioned.

"These two… well for starters outside of this tournament neither one of them have any records of dueling." The computerized voice answered. "Although… according to what I found well… just look for yourself."

As the computerized voice said that an article appeared on the screen mentioning a meeting involving the Monster Ambassador, a girl named Frisk Dreemurr.

"Is this some kind of joke?" Kaiba asked. "There's no such thing as a real monster, it's all holograms."

"Apparently not only are monsters real but Frisk Dreemurr is serving as their ambassador. That may be how she was able to get herself and her sister entered in the tournament." The computerized voice replied. "Which means they may be working with Pegasus."

"See if you can find any active duels for either of these two or Yugi. If I'm going in, I plan on being prepared for anything." Kaiba stated thoughtfully.

(Pegasus has implemented a challenge for Frisk or Chara to overcome and Kaiba has learned of their presence on Duelist Kingdom. Next chapter Bandit Keith will make his move and another duel will begin. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
