Ghastly War

Five- back to Japan

Author Notes: This is a sequel to the first Yugioh/Danny Phantom crossover story I did called "Ghostly Secrets." I claim no rights or anything associated with these two series but the idea for the story is completely my own. If you haven't read the first story I suggest that you do so as this picks up right after the first one ended. A special thanks to fallingHikari on fanfiction.net for their help in creating an OC villian for this story.  Thanks to everyone who read and reviewed as I ask you to please leave me your comments and reviews telling me what you think.  Thanks!

Five- back to Japan

Yugi and his grandfather along with Danny and the whole Fenton family sat on a plane bound for Japan.  Sam and Tucker also rounded off the group.  Yugi had called Seto after the families had said yes that they could go to Japan to support Yugi in Seto’s tournament.  Danny was also entering the tournament.  The Fenton family had convinced Yugi and his grandfather that they should come along in case there was any ghost problems.  Not that they didn’t believe that Danny, Atemu, and Danni couldn’t handle it.  Yes the Fenton’s knew all about the spirit of Atemu that existed within Yugi.  They had learned all about Atemu on the same day Danny divulged his secret to his parents.  Atemu had learned all about Danni from Danny when he paid a visit to Atemu’s millennium puzzle after he had informed his parents about everything.  Atemu and Yugi understood Danny’s need to tell his parents about everything as he didn’t mind that someone else knew their secret.  Seto had sent Danny a duel disk once he had registered the American.  Yugi and Atemu helped Danny build up his confidence as a duelist.  Danny couldn’t beat Yugi and/or Atemu but he could hold his own against them.  Every time Danny dueled against Yugi and/or Atemu he had learned something that would make him a better duelist.  The two even helped Danny improve his deck for the tournament.    

Danny was a bit surprised that Danni didn’t have some of his newer abilities that he had gained because of Atemu.  Danni could hear Yugi and Atemu speak mentally.  She could also see the ghostly image of the other one depending on who was in control.  But that was it.  She didn’t have the ability to sense shadow magic or even use shadow magic like Danny could.  Danny was still learning how to control the small amount of shadow magic that he had gained.  Atemu helped Danny in whatever way he could to learn to control and harness the shadow magic.  At times Atemu patrolled the memories of his millennium puzzle looking for clues and answers to what was coming.  Atemu was convinced it was an enemy that both he and Danny faced five thousand years ago, someone that they both battled and won against.  But so far the memories laid hidden.  Atemu hoped by speaking with Ishizu and going to the local museum within Domino City could also hold some answers.  Both Merik and Bakura knew that the pharaoh Atemu was back and couldn’t rest until he put a stop to this threat.  Yugi knew that it would break his heart to have to say goodbye to Atemu again.  A part of him wondered would his life ever be the same without Atemu in it.

“Yugi…… earth to Yugi……” called out Danny breaking Yugi’s train of thought.

“Sorry Danny…… I was deep in thought.” replied Yugi with a sheepish grin on his face.

“I could tell.  Is Atemu having any luck uncovering the secrets to what is coming?” asked Danny.  Yugi simply shook his head no. 

*There are far too many memories for me to sort through alone.* Atemu replied.

*Sounds like you could use some help Atemu.  And I think that I may have the perfect way to help you find the answers.* Danny replied.

*Thank you Danny.  If the museum within Domino City doesn’t pan out then I will take you up on your offer.* replied Atemu.

*Why do I feel that you are worried more about something else than what is coming?* asked Danny.

*I am worried about what will happen when Yugi’s friends realize that I am back.  I know that both Merik and Bakura already know that I am back as no doubt Ishizu, Merik’s sister will also know that I have returned.  She used to hold the millennium necklace.  I can’t help but to worry about how they will react.  Especially Tea, she loved me but only thought of Yugi as a friend.* stated Atemu.

*Ouch!* stated Danny.

*Tell me about it.* sighed Yugi.

The plane came to a landing as everyone piled off the plane taking their luggage with them.  A limo driver waited for them as he held up a sign reading “Moto and Fenton and friends”.  Yugi recognized the limo driver as he was Seto’s personal driver/body guard Roland.  The group approached Roland smiling.  Roland said very little as he lead the group to the limo as he drove the group towards the Kaiba mansion.  Yugi and Solomon pointed out all the important places and landmarks there was three days before the tournament began as Yugi planned to take the American gang sightseeing.  Yugi knew that his old friends would be at Seto’s mansion to welcome him back home to Japan.  Yugi took a long deep breath as the limo pulled into the mansion owned by Seto and his little brother Mokuba.  The group of all of Yugi’s friends he has made thanks in part to Atemu stood outside of Seto’s mansion.  A large sign read “welcome home Yugi!”  Yugi let out a deep breath as he existed the limo.

“Yugi!” shouted out Joey, Tea, and Tristian in unison as they all went to tackle the petite teen.  Yugi smiled back weakly.  He was glad to see them.

“Hey guys…… I’m back!” stated Yugi.

“Welcome home Yugi.  Welcome to Japan guys.” stated Seto as he came out to greet the group along with his brother Mokuba.

“I feels good to be home.” replied Yugi softly.
