Huh? I've had some weird dreams, but this one takes the cake. Wait, hold on. [flashback to Yami Yugi, Seto Kaiba and Dartz's duel] I remember being trapped in a duel, [flashback ends] but... how did I end up floating around in here?
[offscreen] Joey? Is that you?
Yugi! Long time no see!
I'm glad you're all right!
Please, bubble boy, you call this "all right"?
Pegasus!
If we don't escape soon, we never will!
Hmm? Where exactly are we, anyway, Huh? [spots at Valon, Mai Valentine, Weevil Underwood, Rex Raptor, Alister, Rafael, Seto Kaiba and all many people had soul captured inside the bubbles] Wait! Everyone in here had their soul captured! This must be where the orichalcos spits you out after you lose a duel! Aah! Calm down. Maybe it is just a dream. Uh...
It's no dream. And take a look, Joey. Things are about to get worse!
What's that!?
Don't you pay attention? That's the Great Leviathan, and it's using human souls for power.
It's doing what!? But I don't wanna be turned into soul food!
We can still get out of this mess if the Pharaoh defeats Dartz!
Huh? But how see gonna do that? [looks at Seto Kaiba] Rich boy's with us now. That means.... The Pharaoh's facing Dartz alone out there!
Wrong. Kaiba may have been knocked outta the fight... But the Pharaoh's not alone, Joey.
I'm afraid I don't follow, Yuge.
He's still got all of us. Sure, we're not right there next to him, but we've never let that stop us before.
Yeah, but I don't know if that's gonna work this time, 'Cause Dartz is playin' by a whole new set a rules. and nothing can take down that orichalcos card.
There is one thing that can help.
Huh?
It's the card I gave him. And if the Pharaoh draws it, He'll be able to unleash a force like no other.
In this card can beat Dartz?
Yes. You see, it was during a trip to Egypt that I was inspired to create the game of duel monsters after making an astonishing discovery. Ancient kings and sorcerers once performed dark rituals to conjure real monsters. These creatures were believed to have lived in a universe parallel to ours, and guarding the gateway to this dominion of the beasts were three legendary dragons known as Timaeus, Critias, and Hermos. But you already know about them, right?
Right.
What you don't know is that these dragons aren't what they appear to be. They were buried with a dark secret. So I created a card that unlocks this mystery.
I don't get it. What's the secret?
I spent many years scouring the globe trying to find an answer to that very question, Yugi boy. First I searched the microscopic world for the tiniest clues. then I scanned the vast reaches of the universe, and still nothing. Other than on stone tablet hidden deep beneath the sands of Egypt, there was no record of the existence of these dragons. Then it dawned on me. What if these dragons aren't dragons at all? What if they're humans!
Humans!? But how is that possible, Pegasus? and what does it have to do with that mystery card you gave to the Pharaoh?
During the battle of Atlantis, Dartz transformed three brave knights into dragons in an effort to weaken them. Now the Pharaoh must restore them to their original form... Before we disappear forever!
