yu-gi-oh: I have a stand deck?!

Chapter 18: (14)shadi’s request and dealing with bandit Keith



(Jonah's mindscape)

I open my eyes to see shadi surrounded by Bruno and the others,remembering how nerancha jumped a civilian I knew I had to do something.

"Everyone stop!" I yell,catching everyone's attention before I continued,"this man is someone who I gave permission to enter,so please be hospitable!" I finish,causing nerancha to apologize and Bruno to give the man a seat from the other door in my mind.

(Jonah has two doors like yugi,but the second one is for his monsters-author)

"Thank you…before I begin chatting with you,might I ask how these people came to be? They feel like monsters but they aren't from the shadow realm." He asks,and understanding his confusion,I figured I'd give him a half truth.

"What do you think happens when a child creates an imaginary friend? Does it become real because they say so,or is it real because they believe they are real?" I ask shadi,who contemplated what I was asking,and after a full minute he gave me an answer.

"I'm not sure,I'm ancient times we sealed monsters into stone slabs and used them for battles of conquest,but are you saying yours were made by your imagination?"

Hearing his answer I went along with it,I wasn't sure he would believe my story unless the goddess who sent me here appeared.

"When I was younger I wanted to become a storyteller who made manga's for the masses to enjoy,but I could never draw them,but I imagined them to be my greatest creation,

and go by one name, ariake…but one day I fount a duel monsters card in my hand,but it was different from the others I've seen,it felt…like a part of me,that card was none other than DIO over heaven,and soon after more cards manifested and soon I became who I am now,you can ask Bruno for confirmation." I explain pointing to Bruno who was listening in.

Bruno,who understood I was lying to hide my real origins followed along,"it is as Jonah says mister shadi,we were created from his imagination when he was younger,and as time went on we gained sentience and a soul."

Shadi who heard this was intrigued,he never knew that duel monsters could be made this way,but there was one question on his mind.

"Jonah…what's a manga?"(shadi)

"A manga is a book that shows pictures that lay out a story,it's usually enjoyed by kids and young adults alike,you probably wouldn't be interested,but with that out of the way,I'm guessing you are wishing me to help yugi motou…or is it the other yugi you wish for me to help?"

Shadi was surprised,he didn't know that Jonah figured out that the pharaoh was a different person from the boy who wore the millenium puzzle.

"…it is as you say,I've been living in the pharaohs tomb for 5000 years awaiting his return,but his name has been lost to the annuls of history,so I came to you with a request…please help assist the pharaoh in regaining his memories and help him on his journey." Shadi says to Jonah bowing his head,hoping that Jonah will help.

"Raise your head shadi,I don't wish to see my elders bow their heads in order to ask for help,besides…I already decided to help your pharaoh way before you visited me."I say to shadi,we weren't related by blood,but in my previous life my mother told be to treat my elders with respect and care.

"Thank you,mister kamijo."

"Could I also make a request to you shadi?" I ask him,hoping he can help me get rid of bandit Keith.

"If it is within the powers of my millenium key,then I'll fulfill your request." Shadi says,who was willing to return the favor for his favor.

"There is this guy called bandit Keith,and he's been cheating throughout the tournament,so I was hoping you can lock up his habit to lie and force him into a confession." I say,remembering that he not only assaulted bones and his crew which was against the rules,but hid cards in his wristband and stole Joey's entry card.

"I can do that easily,so consider your request accepted." Shadi says standing up and disappearing.

Not long after the place gets dark again and I find myself in the bed of my room,and checking the clock I saw that it was ten minutes before dinner.

As I get up and go out of my room I come across dornez senior,"ah mister kamijo,I was about to tell the finalist about the dinner starting soon." He says to me with a small smile.

"Before you do that,you need to inform Pegasus that bandit Keith cheated his way to the finals and even came to duelist kingdom without any entry cards." I say to him,and I watch as his look turns serious.

"Thank you,I shall inform him soon,but can you get him to confess?"(dornez Snr.)

"Don't worry,I got someone who can make him confess,and he has an artifact similar to the millenium eye." I tell the butler who nods before saying something in an earpiece before going on to tell the others,and I go to the dining area and wait.

Five minutes pass and everyone enters the room one by one,Keith being the last person.

A minute later Pegasus walks into the room and sits down before saying something.

"I've been informed that someone in this room has cheated their way into the finals." He says to everyone,catching the attention of bandit Keith,whose mouth twitched before going back to his confident poker face.

(A/N: I forgot to mention this,but there are eight finalist in the tournament,I chose to add mako tsunami,seto Kaiba,Mokuba Kaiba,and a random mob who will face Joey in the prelims.)

"And after looking things over with the contestant my men have concluded that bandit Keith is the culprit." He finishes,making everyone look at bandit Keith who just smirked,"oh and where is your eye witness?"

"It's me." I say catching everyone's attention,as I walk over to face him.

"Oh? And how are you going to make me say I cheated,by force?" He says cracking his knuckles.

But soon using the world I stopped time and tied his hands behind his back and took off his wristbands,and inside there were sleeves that kept hidden cards in places so they don't slip out showing himself to be a cheater.

I have time resume and almost instantly everyone realizes that bandit Keith was tied up,even he was shocked and was screaming.

"HEY HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!UNTIE ME YOU JAPANESE ASSHOLE!!!!" He screamed,but undeterred I show everyone the wristbands,shocking bandit Keith who was asking how I took those off without him noticing.

I walk over to Pegasus,"Pegasus,would you inspect these wristbands,you will find a hidden surprise inside." I say to him before handing them to him.

Not long after I give Pegasus the wristbands shadi walks into the room catching everyone's attention.

"Everyone,the is shadi and he will get the confession out of Keith Howard,you may begin shadi." I say to him,who gives me a nod before using his key in front of everyone,and I could tell he was locking away his ability to lie.

"It is ready." He said before he walked over to stand alongside Pegasus." It's been a while hasn't it shadi?".

"Yes it has,I'm glad you managed to get what you wanted."(shadi)

I snap my fingers to get everyone's attention,and I soon begin my interrogation.

"Alright then,bandit Keith…did you smuggle yourself into the tournament?"

"Are you kidding me? Of course I did!"(keith)

Everyone gasps at what bandit Keith said,and I carry on.

"Alright,and did you also assault other participants in order to take their star chips?"

"Yeah it was all me! WHY CANT I LIE?!!"(keith)

"Because…shadi locked away your ability to lie,meaning you are incapable of lying to everyone here! Now final question,why did you do all of this?"

"…"(Keith)

"Why aren't you answering? You're already caught so don't try to be silent."

"…to get revenge on Pegasus for humiliating me."(Keith)

"And there you have it folks,bandit Keith has shown us who he really is,and with that Pegasus shall give ther verdict,are you ready Pegasus?" I ask him,and his eye shown a more serious look.

"He is hereby disqualified,he shall be escorted off the island." He says,but without me realizing it,Keith had a hidden blade and cut the restraints and sprinted at Pegasus.

"DIE!!!" He yelled with extreme rage,his knife being thrown,aimed right at Pegasus' heart.

But before it could make it a foot away from Pegasus,the world activated its ability and I walked over to where the knife was and grabbed it,and then time resumes.

Everyone's eyes widened as they saw me over where Pegasus was,the knife in my hand,and I shatter it.

"I've had enough of you Keith!" I said before I feel the world merge its arms and legs with me giving extreme speed as I mover faster than everyone could react,and for a full minute im punching him in the air,ripples showing where Keith was being punched.

"ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA OEA ORA ORA ORA!!!!" I yell as I throw one final punch then punches him out of the window behind Pegasus and Keith falls into the sea.

I turn to Pegasus and bow,"I apologize for the window,I'll try and pay for the damages."I offer but Pegasus chuckled before speaking,"it's no big deal Jonah boy,you helped me get rid of a rat,so don't worry I'll call some people to fix it after the tournament." He says with a genuine smile.

And soon we were all enjoying dinner and all was great.

Until someone found an eyeball.

So did you guys find Keith's demise perfect? I wanted to use Deja vu to pull a gold experience requiem,but considering Keith is needed for season two I figured I keep him alive only for that,then I'll have DIO do the honors offscreen(off writing?).

But thank you all for enjoying my works,and I'll see you all on Thursday for the new installment,peace😁✌️
