-------------------------------------

I felt cold water on my face and kicked out from the shock.

"What the fuck?"

"Ouch!"

I sat up and looked around. We were all in a large dining room, a huge table piled high with food.

I saw Joey sprawled on the floor just ahead of me.

I raised my eyebrows at him.

"The hell are you doing, Blondie?"

He sat up, rubbing his head. "Jeez, you kick hard."

I stood up and stepped over to him, hands on my hips.

"Don't you know it's bad luck to wake a man when he's sleepin'?"

Joey looked up at me and grinned. "Lucky for me, you're not a man then, huh?"

I lifted my finger and opened my mouth, but I had no response to that.

Dammit, Blondie. You got me there.

I shook my head and offered my hand to him.

"Sorry about that."

I looked around again as he stood up. The rest of my friends looked relieved and started to sit down.

I spotted Mai eating something. She looked up and nodded to me.

Then my eyes settled on Bandit Keith.

I started to get mad and before I knew what I was doing, I stalked over to him.

"Hey, look who it is? Finally awake. Have a nice nap?"

I narrowed my eyes and bared my teeth at him.

He looked at Joey.

"You really should put your girlfriend on a leash."

I heard Joey a few steps behind me.

"She's not my girlfriend!"

Bandit Keith just grinned. "So, that means I have a shot?"

I grabbed the back of his head and slammed his face into his soup.

I let go and clenched my fists by my sides. "Not. In. A. Million. Years."

I turned and walked away before anyone could say anything. I saw the looks on everyone's face. Shock.

Just before I reached the door, it opened and a man walked in. It was the same man who welcomed us to the castle just before Seto and Pegasus' duel.

My eyes widened.

Seto.

The man started talking. He said he had an announcement?

I shook my head and turned to see what he had to say.

"I have a few announcements for you. First, in order to participate in the final tournament, you will need these cards."

He held up Glory Of The Kings Hand and Glory Of The Kings Opposite Hand.

"You can't receive the prize money without the Glory Of The Kings Hand, and you can't challenge Pegasus without the Glory Of The Kings Opposite Hand."

I looked around. Joey and Bandit Keith both looked worried.

"Second, look at your soup."

Everyone who was competing looked down at their bowls and gasped. I couldn't see what they were looking at.
