Duelists Of All Worlds
Chapter 1: The Invitations
Load Full StoryNext ChapterIn the highest floor of the KaibaCorp building in Domino City, Seto Kaiba sat in his computer chair, playing solitaire on his computer. He probably should've been at school, but he was too rich for that, so half the time he skipped class and played games instead. Kaiba was about to win and start a new solitaire game when his Skype began to ring. He was being called by someone with the username 'Maximillion Pegasus'. Oh boy.
Kaiba answered the call. "What do you want? I'm busy right now,"
"Hello there, Kaiba boy. I just wanted to have a little chat," Pegasus said.
"If you're calling me, then you must want something. What is it?" Kaiba said.
"I just called to formally invite you to my newest Duel Monsters tournament, 'Duelists Of All Worlds', being held at Canterlot City," Pegasus said.
"Canterlot? Isn't that the place where everyone has crazy skin and hair colors?" Kaiba asked.
"Why, yes it is. That's why I like it so much, I fit right in," Pegasus said.
"Look, if this is another ploy to steal the Millennium Items, then let me be the one to remind you about Duelist Kingdom and how well that turned out," Kaiba said,
"I'm not after the Millennium Items this time, Kaiba boy. I'm looking for the Equestrian cards," Pegasus said.
"How do you know about that?!" Kaiba asked.
"I've been watching you duel Yugi, and your cards seem very powerful indeed," Pegasus said.
"Wait, you've been watching me duel Yugi?" Kaiba asked.
"Precisely. I have cameras installed in all of your holographic arenas, so I can watch you anytime I want," Pegasus said.
That's creepy. How did that slip past us?, Kaiba thought.
"So how about it, Kaiba boy?" Pegasus asked.
"I'll join your tournament, but only because I'm a multi-billionaire with nothing better to do," Kaiba said. "Besides, if you hope to steal them from me in a duel or something, then you've got another thing coming,"
"Of course, Kaiba boy. I was hoping you'd be this agreeable. I can't wait to see you there," Pegasus said.
"I use Rainbow Dash to attack your Life Points directly!" Yugi said.
Joey's Life Points went down to 0. He still couldn't believe that a Level 4 Monster could have 2,500 Attack Points, and that any monster card could be this cute.
"Guess I lose again," Joey grumbled. "Say, Yug, where did you get these cards anyways?"
"I don't know, they just appeared in my deck after a few duels with Kaiba," Yugi replied. "I don't really mind, because they're just so powerful,"
"And utterly adorable," Tea added.
"Yes, and adorable," Yugi said.
Suddenly, a man wearing a nice black suit, sunglasses, and a ridiculous hairstyle wherein his brown hair is spiked up heavily at the front walked into the game shop Yugi and his friends were playing in. "Attention duelists! My hair has a letter addressed to one Yugi Moto," he said.
"I'm one Yugi Moto," Yugi said as he grabbed the letter from the man's hand. The man then left the game shop.
"Who's that letter from, Yug?" Joey asked.
"It's from Pegasus!" Yugi said as he opened the letter. It said:
Dear Yugi Moto,
I write this letter to you to formally invite you to my newest Duel Monsters tournament, 'Duelists Of All Worlds'. It shall be held in the city of Canterlot in the U.S.A. on June 21. The structure of the tournament will be further explained on that date. I have travel expenses covered for four people, first-class of course, should you choose to accept and want to bring your friends along. Should you choose to decline, well, I have other ways of convincing people.
Kind Regards,
Maximillion Pegasus
"So he wants you to enter his tournament," Joey said.
"I don't really think I should enter. This sounds like a trap," Yugi said.
"Aw, come on, Yug!" Joey said. "Four free first-class plane tickets to Canterlot! I don't even know where that is, but who would pass that up?"
"Besides, Pegasus knows how good a duelist you are," Tea added. "With your new pony cards, he wouldn't stand a chance against you and he knows it,"
"And you're a main character, therefore you're invincible," Tristan added.
"Maybe, but..."
"Come on, Yug! It'll be fine," Joey said.
"Well, if you guys think so..." Yugi said. He turned towards the sales counter. "Bye, Grandpa! We're going to a random card game tournament with no adult supervision whatsoever!"
"Typical..." Yugi's grandpa said.
Yugi and his friends walked out of the game shop, and the same man who delivered the letter was waiting for them outside of a limousine. "Attention duelists! My hair was waiting outside to drive you to the airport!"
"Well ain't this awfully convenient," Joey said.
And so Yugi and his friends were driven to the airport. It was not a very eventful drive, nor was it a very eventful flight.
Bakura was walking down the street, when suddenly he heard a rather effeminate voice in his head. "Hello there, Bakura,"
"Pegasus? How are you talking in my mind right now?" Bakura asked the voice.
"I'm Maximillion Pegasus, I can do whatever I want," Pegasus replied.
"Didn't Kaiba say that first?" Bakura asked.
"Oh never mind Kaiba boy," Pegasus said. "Anyways, how would you like to join my newest Duel Monsters tournament, 'Duelists Of All Worlds'?"
"That sounds spiffing, Pegasus," Bakura said. "One question, though, where exactly is it?"
"It's taking place in the absolutely wonderful city of Canterlot," Pegasus said.
"Excuse me, what?" Bakura said.
"Oh you heard me, Bakura. Canterlot, the most magical city on Earth," Pegasus said.
"Okay then. And how exactly am I going to get there?" Bakura asked.
"If you wait by the sandwich shop, one of my employees should come and pick you up. From there he'll drive you to the airport," Pegasus said.
"Okay then. See you there I guess,"
Bakura waited by the sandwich shop for ten minutes before another limousine drove by, being driven by a man functionally identical to the one who picked up Yugi and his friends, crazy hair and all. "Attention duelists! My hair is also picking you up and dropping you off at the airport!"
"Uh, sir, I'm only one duelist," Bakura said.
"Attention duelists! My hair doesn't care!" the man replied.
So Bakura was also driven to the airport. His journey was also uneventful.
