Yugi looked down as instantly as the card came out, watching the card fall to the floor. Bending over, the young tricolor haired boy bent over and picked up the unique card. Seeing it better with no glare, Yugi realized it was a Duel Monsters card, one that he had never seen before. Dark Djinn. Yugi mused on the name of the monster card. What confused Yugi was the whispers that he was hearing, the voice of a female that he had never heard before calling his name. Yugi looked around a minute before looking to his Grandpa and his friends. "Did you guys hear someone call my name?" He asked innocently, looking confused. 

Joey and Tristen too looked confused but toward Yugi. "I didn't hear anythin'." Joey answered, Tristen spoke next. "Nope. Didn't hear a thing." Yugi looked to his Grandpa who shook his head. The young boy looked back at the card one more time before he looked at the envelope to see if there was anything else about the envelope that he should look at next, having set the card on the counter. "That's strange. I wish I knew who sent this card to me. Though I don't understand it myself as to why." Yugi pondered aloud and to anyone who listened. Joey and Tristen shrugged. "Who knows, but that is a sweet card you got there." Joey told his short friend with excitement. 

Only then did Yugi realize that he was caught off guard by the card he got and looked to his Grandpa. "Hey, Grandpa, can you show us your super rare card?" He asked with child-like curiosity. Solomon looked to his grandson "What card, my special card?" Now looking like he was thinking about it now, almost wanting to be convinced to let them see his precious card. "Please?" Yugi pleaded, his hands clapped together and outstretched a little as he bowed his head. Joey came up with almost puppy like eyes. "Pretty please?" Grandpa chuckled outloud and joyfully. "Ha ha ha! Alright." Turning away he reached under the counter and pulled out a small wooden box of intricate designs. Setting it on the counter, he turned it so it would face them once he opened it. "Here it is. This is my treasure." Opening the box, he showed Yugi and his friends the super rare card, The Blue-eyes White Dragon. Joey was in awe of the card he saw before him. "Woowww...."

Tristen looked at it quizzically, unsure why they liked it so much. It was just a card to him. Granted he wasn't much into Duel Monsters. He got the basics but that was about it. "What's so special about—" "There are only 4 of these in the world! This isn't even for sale!" Solomon spouted as he then closed the box before Joey could get a few more inches closer to it. At the time Yugi was watching the two banter about the card but on occasion he would look over to his own new card in wonder and curiosity, wondering why and how he heard the female voice that he had heard from before. 

"Alright, can I hold it?" Joey asked as innocently as he could. 
"No way, it's mine!" Solomon griped. Yet looking like he was pouting.
"Eh? Come on, old man! It's a shame not to play a powerful card like that!" Joey argued though sounded like he was complaining. Yugi's grandfather was about to argue with Joey further when the bell ringed, signalling that someone was entering the shop.
"Welcome!" Solomon greeted with a smile. Yugi and his friends turned to face the newcomer when everyone stilled, shocked to see a very familiar and popular figure at the door. "That's..." Tristen started with surprise. "Kaiba?!" Yugi finished when Tristen left off.

Seto Kaiba, CEO of Kaiba Corp. at the front door of the Kame Game shop. Tristen looked skeptical at the arrival of the young man before them. "What would the heir to the Kaiba Corporation want here?" He asked aloud.

"I heard that there was a rare card and I wanted to check it out." Seto answered Tristen's question with a mater-of-fact tone. Joey perked up at this, basically hearing that Kaiba was into the game of Duel Monsters. "Oh! Do you play duel monsters too, Kaiba? That's perfect, maybe we can all duel sometime!" Excited basically by the news. Maybe hoping that Kaiba would accept the invite. 

"Not a chance. I'd have more of a challenge playing solitaire." Seto told the blonde in a nonchalant sort of way, making the rudest refusal to the invitation he was given. This made Joey take a step back, looking at him with disbelief. "What?!"

"For your information, I happen to be the Duel Monster's national champion, you half-wit. You wouldn't last two minutes in a duel with me." Kaiba informed him as if he was nothing but a child in his eyes. 

Of course Joey looked at this as a challenge and took a step forward, starting to crack his knuckles. "What was that?! Why don't you say that to my face, rich boy!" Joey dared, this made Yugi flinch at the daring tone in Joey's voice and grabbed Joey's arm, almost leaching to him. "Stop it, Joey!" Not wanting violence like that near him. This made the taller blonde stop to look at his friend hoping to reason with him. "But he's...Yug' he started it!" But then Joey backed off, only now staring daggers at Kaiba, knowing Yugi's high dislike of such violence. 

With this Seto walked forward and paid hardly any mind to Joey's glare. "So, does a shop like this have any decent cards?" Seto stopped suddenly though as he looked at the box of which they could have sworn was closed for a time and yet had been reopened and for the CEO of Kaiba Corp. to see. Seto's piercing blue eyes landed upon the rare card before him and on the counter. Not only that but he also landed eyes on the second card that he had never seen before and clearly rare since he had heard nothing about it. "Can it be?!" He said as he faltered slightly. He pushed past Joey and Tristen to look at the two rare cards that were staring right back at him. "N-No way! What is the Blue-Eyes White Dragon doing in a place like this?!" Though making no mention of the other card, Yugi and Solomon could clearly see that he was staring at the Shadow Djinn. Yugi came over to the counter, feeling this strange need to protect it. Why, he had no idea. 

With this Solomon brought all their attention to the quick sharp thud of the box closing. This brought Kaiba's attention from the card to the old man. "That is quiet enough window shopping, thank you. Is there anything else you want to look at?" He asked. Seto who is clearly upset looks to Grandpa and places a metal brief case that he had been carrying onto the counter top and spun it to face Solomon. "Old man, would you trade your Blue-Eyes White Dragon card for all these cards?" Kaiba asked, though had a little bit of a growl within his agitated tone. Yugi and his friends were amazed of all the cards that they were seeing in Kaiba's case, clearly powerful cards indeed.

Solomon had chuckled at this but with a sighing laugh, he shook his head. He wasn't seeming to make matters, being polite. "As much as that is a generous offer, I must decline." A smile on his lips as if he was thinking of something. This made everyone shocked besides Seto who seemed even more agitated. "WHAT?!" They all said aloud. "If you won't trade for it, then I'll buy it! Name your price. I can pay anything you ask!" Kaiba tried to bargain, almost seeming desperate. 

This made Solomon shake his head. "I'm sure you could. The reason I'm not selling you this card, isn't because it's a great card, but because it's a gift from my most important friend. And I treasure this card as did my friend. Whatever you offer, Kaiba, I'm not selling it. Nor am I selling my grandson's card." He told him, his voice full of fondness and memory. This made Yugi smile. Kaiba was surprised that he had caught on and growled. "What?!" 

"You wouldn't sell it even if it was weak, isn't that right?" Yugi asked, having taken his card from the counter. Solomon nodded. "That's right. This card has the same heart as that important person." 

This made Kaiba back away as he had slammed the case shut, making some of them flinch at the sound. "Stupid fools...." With that Kaiba left without turning back. Seto thought that this 'heart of the cards' was absolute nonsense. The cards were power and he had proved this many times over his new career as reigning champion of Duel Monsters.

Yugi sighed with a sag of his shoulders, feeling relieved. But a feeling he wouldnt see the last of Seto.
