"Noah-sama, please let me duel her," Oshita, the one who had lost to Yugi, pleaded.

"You? You lost! No, let me duel her instead," Ota retorted, believing that his Robotic Knight would be more than enough to handle her.

"What are you all saying? Do you really want to underestimate her after what she did to us back then?" Ouka reprimanded them, "even me and my Deck Master Judge Man would have a hard time against her. Not to mention that she is not alone."

Noah was listening to everyone, waiting to see if they come to a conclusion on their own.

"How about all three of us duel against both of them?" Oshita suggested.

"As long as you don't drag me down," Ota replied.

"Noah-sama, will you grant us this duel?" Ouka asked.

The young boy chuckled, "I don't see why not, if she is such a force to be reckoned with. But, she will have the right to refuse, and you three must duel against them both at once."

The three men agreed and got into their Deck Master form before going to where Marik and Akia were.

The two, unaware of what was coming, were walking around, still trying to find a way inside the castle. Suddenly, they heard a door open.

"Did you hear that?" Akia asked.

Marik nodded, "it came from the front."

They both headed back to the front of the castle, where the main door was now wide open.

"I smell a trap," the red-eyed girl mumbled.

"At least you've got some common sense. Now don't rush in and stay behind me," the young man told her as he pulled her towards him by her arm. She gasped a little at how hard he yanked her. Akia didn't complain this time, though, since it never really worked.

As soon as they entered the castle, the door closed behind them. The floor beneath their feet then lit up and started lifting. They were now standing on an elevated circular platform that covered most of the castle's court entrance. On the other side of the platform, three figures showed up.

"Duel monsters?" Akia inquired as she recognized the three monsters in front of her. They were Judge Man, Robotic Knight, and Deepsea Warrior.

"Mutou Akia," the Deepsea Warrior called her out, "I, Oshita Konosuke, will make you pay for what you did to us."

"You are the main reason why we are trapped. I vow on my name, Ouka Chikuzen, that we will make you suffer as much and even more than you made us suffer," the Judge Man monster added.

"Now, we challenge you and your partner to duel all three of us at once," the Robotic Knight said, "remember me, Ota Soichiro, once you meet your doom."

Akia stared at them blankly, not fully grasping what they were saying because she was too distracted by how they looked. Marik looked at her and sighed, which snapped her out of it. The young man wanted to start a Shadow Game, but his Millennium Rod was not responding properly. He concluded that it was probably because they were not in the real world.

"Oh! Yeah, sure. Are you down to tag duel with me, Marik?" The red-eyed girl asked.

Marik shrugged. "Let's get this over with."

"Then it is settled. You will need to make your deck and choose a Deck Master before starting," the man named Ouka explained as they all took their places.
