(Especially Yugi and Yami >3)]The museum was half-empty at this time of day. A familliar figure walked up the steps to the massive building, the golden headband with light drawings of wings on it shone in the weak fall sun. Bright sapphire-hued gaze was bright and excited. She hadn't been to the museum in quite awhile so she was hoping for an interesting exhibition. Her attire was simple, a crew-neck long-sleeved shirt in a lavender hue with amethyst colored sequins adorning the collar. Her pants were dark wash blue jeans with a bit of sparkle on the front pockets. Her sea-blue hair was down, and with one small tress braided. On her feet were a pair of black sneakers with bright lime green laces. She wore a faux fur and suede jacket in a tan hue.
Removing the coat, she hung it over her left arm and adjusted her messenger bag. Isis, her mau was hiding in the bag as usual and a protesting mew issued forth. Sam sighed and opened the bag "Hush Isis, you'll get us into trouble" She whispered and the feline's ears pinned back against her head, but she fell quiet, laying down and a sigh-like sound escaped the feline. Sam shook her head in mild amusement and closed the flap, heading towards the egyptian section of the museum.
She loved going in here this time of day, it was so quiet and she could just wander around without someone bumping into her or brushing past her rudely. She stopped at the threshold of the Egyptian section and looked around for a moment, then entered. It was like something was waiting, watching her, and it made her a bit uncomfortable but she brushed that thought away, a low growl sounded from her bag, and she opened it, seeing a rather impatient Isis. She sighed and knelt on the spotless floor. Plucking the Mau from her bag, she placed the cat on it's favorite resting spot. Her shoulders. "Better?" Sam inquired and got an agreeing meow from her companion. Picking up the bag and carefully standing, she continued to look at the artifacts from her home land. She missed Egypt dearly, but there really wasn't much she could do about it at the moment. A longing sigh escaped Sam's lips and she crossed her arms "I miss home..."

Dan had long since been off the clock. He'd changed into his street clothes hours ago and had been ready to go for longer. Yet he never even made it to the front door of the museum. He remained in his favorite exhibit in front of the object of his obsession, the mysterious mirror, examining and reexamining it for clues to solving it's code he'd missed before.
In the midst of his research he got the feeling he was no longer along in the room. He looked away from the mirror and craned his neck to see behind him somewhat. A girl with a cat on her shoulder was looking rather sad and lonely. Like she was homesick. Dan could relate to that. Domino was nice, but it was far from home and any relative of his. Some days the city reminds you how big, cold, and indifferent it can be.
In his mind, he decided that maybe he could cheer this young lady up. He closed and put his notebook away in his own satchel before getting off the floor in an animated and cartoonish style. "Why hello there, miss and cat! And welcome to Domino museum! I'm Dan Carlisle and I work here!" He smiled wide and did a silly bow to hopefully get a giggle. It should be obvious he wasn't a native to Domino, at least he hoped he still looked that way.

Kaiba decided to make another trip to the museum. One to get a picture of the mirror. If it was against the rules to do so well then...."Screw the rules I have money." Kaiba says quietly to himself as he opens the door to the museum. Of course he had more than the mirror on his mind. On his left arm lay his duel disk,and the fact Dan thought he could stand up to him had to be proven wrong on spot.
"Carlisle where are you?!" Kaiba says as he walks from exhibit to exhibit,trying to find the curator, finally finding him near that weird mirror again and talking to someone else. Of course,Kaiba didn't care if he was already in conversation or not. "I'm here to prove you wrong right now that you could beat me in a duel Carlisle. I challenge you to a duel right here and now!"

Sam turned at the voice, and gave a little smile at the man's antics. As soon as Seto came walking in however, she got a massive headache, and Isis's fur bristled and she hissed. Clutching her head, Sam got a few flashes of something in her mind..but it was blurry, like she couldn't quite see it,it was like looking through a dense fog. Once it cleared, she looked at the Current CEO of Kaiba Corp. Seto Kaiba. He was challenging the curator of the museum "Maybe dueling inside the museum isn't really a good idea" Sam suggested, eyes resting on the duel disk. She had seen the Battle City tournament on TV, but she didn't know that Seto Kaiba actually dueled. Rumor had it that he had 3 of the 4 Blue Eyes white dragons, and Sam really wanted to see those. Isis meowed, and nudged Sam on the neck, snapping her out of her thoughts.

Dan's goofy smile disappeared as he turned to see Seto Kaiba calling him out. No surprise he was looking a bit confused. The cat on the girl's shoulder didn't seem to like the man very much, but Dan was pretty sure most animals didn't get along well with Kaiba. He was about to reach into his bag to get his duel disk when the girl spoke some common sense.
"I agree with her. There are too many invaluable pieces of history in here. Let's go to the roof. That is unless you want a large crowd, Mr. Kaiba." He pulled his custom-made Duel Disk from his bag and attached to his left forearm. From out of a deck box marked with a gravestone cartoon on his belt, he pulled a deck of cards.
"This was made for duelists like you. This should be an interesting match."
He walked past Seto, to the front desk. He told the the person there something and received the keys to the roof. Motioning to the multimillionaire and the girl, who seem quite interested in this duel as well.
After a winding staircase, A dull gray door opened to the bright daylight. The roof was large, flat and covered in loose gravel and a few vents. The perfect area for a duel.
"It is your challenge, so its your rules, Mr. Kaiba.
Let's Duel!"
This should be entertaining enough to cheer that girl up. He thought to himself.

Kaiba had followed Carlisle up to the roof,smirking the entire time. He was well known throughout Japan. Former number one duelist,and still number two throughout the country,as well as definitely within the top ten around the world.
"Let's Duel!says Kaiba simultaneously with Carlisle as his Duel Disk activates,both ends combining together and sliding forward as the life point meter lights up reading 4000. "Don't know about your rules in America,but here in Domino we play with 4000 life points." says Kaiba as he shuffles his deck and draws his beginning cards.
"I'll start things off." says Kaiba as he draws six cards. "I place one card face down on the field and I summon Luster Dragon (1900/1600 no effect) to the field in attack mode. says Kaiba as his dragon materializes atop the roof,roaring loudly in Carlisle's face. "Your move loser.."says Kaiba,ending his turn.
Current LP Count: 4000

"The great Seto Kaiba using a dragon deck. No surprises there.' Dan remarked softly, as he drew his first card. A smirk appeared on his face.
"I'll place this face down and activate another card. Double Summon!" He two hologram copies of face-down cards appeared in the air in front of him, though one immediately rose to reveal the magic card. "Now I can normal summon twice this turn. So I'm summoning two Soul-Absorbing Bone Towers (Atk/ 400 Def/ 1500. This card cannot be attacked while there is another Zombie-type monster on your side of the field. Each time a Zombie-type monster is Special Summoned successfully, send 2 cards from the top of your opponent's Deck to the Graveyard)." The magic card started to glow white before splitting into to three beams of light, one ran straight through his chest. His lifepoint counter dropped 1000 points right off the bat and two hitting the opposite sides his field. "These bone towers can't be hit if another zombie is on the field. And since both of these are zombies. You can hit neither them nor me! Well, worth the life points."

Seto Kaiba would only smirk as his opponent plays his spell and his zombie cards. "You'll learn to respect the power behind my dragons. I'm about to put your zombies right back in the graveyard."he says in a cold tone as he draws a card from his deck.
I activate the spell card Lightning Vortex!"he says. "By discarding one card from my hand,Lightning Vortex destroys all face up monsters on your side of the field. Your little defensive shield is history."says Kaiba as lightning rains down around Dan's field,striking each of his monsters. If he didn't counter the spell,his life points would be wide open for attack. However..Kaiba had other plans first.
"Next I play the spell card Future Fusion."he says proudly. "By sending cards listed on a fusion material monster from my deck to the graveyard,I can summon the fusion on my second standby phase after activation. And I'm going to send all three of my Blue Eyes White Dragons to the graveyard."he says as he takes his deck and sends the required monsters to the graveyard.
"Now Luster Dragon,attack his life points directly" says Kaiba. After the attack if it was countered or stopped he would signal for the end of his turn.
Kaiba's LP: 4000 Dan's LP: 3000 due to card effect,1100 if Lightning Vortex or attack isn't countered.

Sam watched with immense interest, Isis perched on her shoulder, the foggy images occasionally coming into her mind "Isis, stop that" She said shortly to the feline, immediately, the images stopped and Sam focused on the duel at hand, perking up when she heard Blue Eyes white Dragon, but Seto had sent them all to the graveyard. Frowning, but continuing to watch, she idly pet the feline.

Dan called out quickly, "I don't think so, Kaiba! I activate the trap card Magic Jammer." From his hand, he fed a card into his graveyard As the lightning fell, the card rose and red lightning sprang from the picture to intercept. Smoke exploded as they met in mid-air. "Maybe Bandit Keith would have fallen for that, but not me. I won't be beaten like that."
He drew a card from his deck and thought for a second. "I'll place this and a monster in face-down defense to end my turn." Two face-down cards shimmered into existence on his side of the field. The monster card sat square between the Bone Towers and the face-down card sat to the right of Dan. A single card was in his left hand and hiding behind his confident front was a briskly beating heart. Getting a bad card would break his strategy, but at least he had his backup planned.

Kaiba would frown as his Lightning Vortex was countered. "You've got more brains than Keith I'll give you that one."says Kaiba as he draws. His eyes would narrow as he looked at his hand. The card he drew wouldn't quite serve it's purpose,but it would do to keep his life points from being destroyed.
"I play the spell card Dark Hole,which sends all monsters on the field to the graveyard."he says as a black vortex appears between the two of them,drawing every monster they had on the field in if it wasn't countered. Whether it was or wasn't,Kaiba's next move would be the same. "Next I'll place one card on the field in face down defense position and end here."says Kaiba as his card materializes on spot.
Current LP Count: Kaiba: 4000 Dan: 3000

Most people would probably be panicking if all their monsters were wiped from their field. Most wouldn't be smiling gleefully, almost unable to contain themsevles. Dan is not most people. Silently he drew a card, but soon would speak.
"Thank you. Thank you so much Kaiba. Now I can really use this. Call of the Mummy!" His face-down card in the corner rose up to show the world its pretty picture. "And with this, since my field is clear of monsters, I can Special Summon Despair from the Dark!" (atk/2800 def/3000 When sent from your hand or deck to the graveyard by your opponent's card effect, Special Summon this card to the field)
Suddenly a plethora of headstones shot out of the spell card and landed front and center in Dan's monster field.The sky above the newly placed hologram graveyard darkened and lightning crackled in the clouds. A demonic form pulled itself from the shadows of the stones. Yellow, vacant eyes opened and stared at Kaiba and a smiling jagged mouth back lit in the same yellow as the eyes.
"Attack his face-down monster!"

Kaiba would grin as Dan thought he was going to get a monster out on the field. You fail Carlise. Activate Trap: Torrential Tribute!"says Kaiba,excitement evident in his tone. Whenever a monster is summoned,I can activate this trap to destroy all monsters on the field!"says Kaiba as a giant tidal wave emerges around the both of them,destroying both monsters instantly unless it got countered.

Sam's eyes widened at the sight of the BEUD and she grinned, there was no way the other guy had a chance now. "How magnificent!" She commented in awe at the shining scales and the three heads of the dragon. "Now that is one helluva card.." She said to Isis, who couldn't help but meow in agreement. Sam walked a bit closer to the dueling field, staring up at Kaiba's trademark dragon "If only you were real and not a hologram.." She murmured, bright blue eyes positively sparkling.

Now a look of worry appeared on his face. He had one chance, and he was taking it. "Quickplay Spell: Activate! Deal with Dark Ruler!"
A silhouette of the Dark Ruler appeared behind the wake of the wave and morphed into the form of a dragon. It was Berserk Dragon, to be exact. (atk/3500 def/0 This card can only be Special Summoned by the effect of 'A Deal with Dark Ruler'. This card can attack all monsters on your opponent's side of the field at once. You cannot attack you opponent directly of you attack any monsters first. Decrease the ATK of this card by 500 points during each of your End Phases.)
His heart was racing in excitement. The number two duelist in the world was his opponent, and he was in view of victory. "This is Berserk Dragon. He attacks you directly with 3500 Points"
Dan took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. "You probably know a bit about my victory of Keith in the Regional Finals in the US, right? You know that it took me twenty turns?"
