It was time for school, another day at Domino High. Your parents transferred you here a few months ago but they were never around because they were constantly working abroad. You had an entire apartment to yourself which was pretty cool but it did get lonely at times though. You had a great group of friends to make up for it though! Yugi Moto, Tea Gardner, Joey Wheeler and Tristan Taylor. You were ready to go so you grabbed your keys, school bag and duel monsters deck before making your way to school.

When you arrived for homeroom, Yugi and Joey were playing another game of duel monsters. You sat at your desk behind the others and next to you was Seto Kaiba. The young CEO of KaibaCorp and number one duelist in the country. You were doing your homework whilst Kaiba was reading the same book that he always reads. "Gee, thanks a lot, Yuge, a card that powerful totally wipes me out!" I heard Joey whine "You lost again Joey?" You asked laughing quietly "Yeah, Yugi's an expert at this game I suck at this" he moped. "Nah you did fine Joey I just have better cards which I get from my grandpa's game shop" Yugi admitted. "Your own game shop?" Joey and Tristan both asked excitedly "Yeah how about we go after school, maybe I can get Grandpa to show you his super rare card" Yugi laughed. At the mention of this rare card, Kaiba snapped his head up and looked in Yugi's direction 'It looks like Kaiba's interested in that card and I don't think he'll leave that shop until he gets it' You thought before the bell rang and you went to your next lessons.

Once school was finished for the day, we all made our way to Kame games and walked inside. "Hey Grandpa, we're home!" Yugi chirped "And I see you've brought company" Grandpa chuckled "Grandpa could you please show my friends your super rare card please!" Yugi begged "How can I refuse? You kids are in for a treat!" Grandpa said happily, he got out a small box and opened it up to reveal the Blue-Eyes White Dragon! "Woah, that is a special rare card there are only seven blue eyes in the entire world!" You exclaimed "That's correct, there are only seven of them in the world, it's priceless but not because of its rarity. It was given to me by a dear friend," Grandpa told us. "Speaking of prices I'm ready to trade!" Joey laughed "Not for this card you won't!" Grandpa said angrily "Huh? No, I didn't mean that card, I meant show me some other cool cards to get me started" Joey replied before the door opened, it was Seto Kaiba! "Don't you have a business to run or something?" You asked nonchalantly "For once something more important came up, of course, I wouldn't expect to find the card I'm looking for here but I thought I may as well have a look at this rare card" Kaiba chuckled. "Hey, maybe we could all duel together sometime?" Joey offered "Please, I would have more of a challenge playing solitaire. I am the number one ranked duelist in the country and the favourite to win the duel monsters championship. Heh, you wouldn't last two minutes in a duel against me mutt" Kaiba chuckled "Careful Kaiba unless, of course, you want this to be settled with fists instead of cards" you threatened.

"Whatever, now does this shop have any worth cards or not?" Kaiba asked before seeing Grandpa's blue eyes on the counter, "well enough window shopping is there anything else I can help you with?" Grandpa asked as he put the rare card away, Kaiba growled before slamming a briefcase on the counter, he opened it up to reveal hundreds of super rare cards! "Listen to me, old man! Give me your blue eyes white dragon card and I'll trade you all these!" Kaiba offered in an aggressive tone. "Ah nice, but no thanks" Grandpa responded after glancing at all the cards "Fine. If you won't trade it maybe you'll sell it. Name your price I can pay anything you ask!" Kaiba said with a hidden hint of urgency he really wanted that card, "I'm sure you could but this card is worth more to me than you could ever offer. Not because of its power or how rare it is but because of what it means to me. This card was given to me by a dear friend, so I treasure it as I do this friend so parting with it is completely out of the question! This card has bonded with my heart" Grandpa told Kaiba "Fine. I've heard enough of your nonsense senile old fool!" Kaiba snarled before storming out of the store. "Kaiba is as big-headed and stuck up as he is cute" you mumbled to yourself "Yet no matter how big his ego gets you'll still have a crush on him" Tea whispered whilst nudging you. After you and Joey bought some cool cards all of you except Yugi left and agreed to come back to the store after school the following day.

The next day, you all walked into the game shop. "Hey, gramps we're back to get more cards!" Joey yelled as you entered the game shop, but the lights were all turned off and it was way too quiet. "Grandpa?" Yugi called out but no one replied 'I have a bad feeling Kaiba has something to do with this!' You thought to myself. The shop's phone began ringing, and Yugi answered it, "Hello game shop. Kaiba?! What have you done Kaiba?!" Yugi yelled, a few seconds later he put the phone down. "Grandpa's at KaibaCorp I think Kaiba did something to him," Yugi said in a panicked tone, we all ran out the door and towards KaibaCorp but why is Kaiba so determined on getting Grandpa's blue eyes?

You all ran through the lift doors, Grandpa was on the floor and he didn't look too good. Kaiba revealed Grandpa's blue eyes white dragon card and tore it in half! Whilst Kaiba was laughing and mocking Yugi, you took advantage of his distraction to lay a hit on him but he caught your fist. "Let go of me you dirtbag!" You rowled "Oh don't worry I will as soon as Yugi agrees to duel me, of course, he has to win the duel to win back your freedom" Kaiba laughed "What!? you can't do that you freak!" Tristan yelled, "That's funny I think I just did so what do you say Yugi?" Kaiba asked "Fine! If you want a duel then you've got one!" Yugi replied, we entered the duel arena and you were forced to stay with Kaiba's younger Mokuba, he's a sweet kid, unlike his brother. "I know my brother may seem like a jerk but he just isn't as bad as everyone thinks, he just does it so everyone will respect him y'know especially you, I don't know why but he seems to talk about you a lot," Mokuba told me "r-really why?" You asked "beats me" he responded and then the duel began but who would be the winner?
