Disclaimer: I don't own either Inu-Yasha or Yu-Gi-Oh!. Inu-Yasha and it's characters belong to Rumiko Takahashi, and Yu-Gi-Oh! belongs to Kazuki Takahashi. This fan fic is based on a dream I had, and I've been building on the story ever since. The songs featured aren't mine either, and I shall give their owners proper credit. I hope yall enjoy my new Anime Crossover….
The Chaos Effect
Prologue
The winds of fate are growing strong. That is the thought that ran through The Game King's mind as the stars above twinkled in the inky-black sky, and the rain fell like liquid lead. Outside a storm was raging, like a wild boar, while inside the home of young Yugi Mutou, there was peace. The Game King, known to the sleeping boy as the spirit Yami, knew this storm was no ordinary springtime weather pattern. As long as Yami's spirit thrived, he would do all he could to protect his young reincarnation, and the boy's friends, from whatever these turbulent winds brought.
***********************************************
He could smell it coming. As the han-you, Inu-yasha, lay sleeping outside of his dearest friend, Kagome's, window in the rain, Myoga the flea smelled change coming. What that change would be, he could not guess, but, It will mean trouble for lord Inu-Yasha, he thought. Yes, trouble indeed. Oh darn it!, the flea thought as more water drenched him, while he clung to his master's white hair, Why does he always choose to sleep out here, and on a night like this! I need a towel…
*****************************************************
The wind grew stronger, the rain heavier, the thunder louder. In a flash of light, and a loud BANG of thunder, the trees surrounding Domino High fell on the school. Glass broke, desks were smashed, and books in the library were ripped and soaked. It was all in an instant, but when it was over, the debris was almost still. The only movement was of what was stirred by the wind. None would know of this incident until dawn, but the cosmos had felt it. This event was changing the lives of nine young lives, though non would know until it was too late…
****************************************************
Joey Wheeler's dreams were not peaceful this night. Instead of dreaming his usual dreams, like the mountain of burgers, winning the world's greatest motorcycle contest, or even those few dreams he had of the lovely duelist, Mai Valentine, he had a dream that he thought he'd gotten rid of. A dream he hoped he had outgrown. The haunting dream he had dreamed from the time he had turned four, until just last year, when he and Yugi had become friends…
The sky was as bright as day, but not from the sun. The old Japanese palace was a blazing inferno. He was trapped! Then, just as suddenly, it was gone. The fire, the palace, all gone. He was alone in the night, when she came out of the old forest. Her sad brown eyes were on the verge of tears. Her black hair shone bright in the moonlight. She was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Then, her lips moved, forming his name, but he heard no sound…and she turned from him, running away, away to the arms of… a monster…all the while, he was desperately calling her name…
He was drenched in a cold sweat when he bolted out of bed. The storm was over, and the sun was peaking through the clouds as it rose. He could never remember that girl's name, when ever he woke from that dream. What always stuck was that burning palace, the fear of being trapped there. And her face. Though now it's image was fading, as it always did, he still felt that sense of heartbreak, how he didn't want to lose her, especially since she ran from his arms to those of a horrible, unseen monster.
Hey, what do I care about some stupid dream. I stopped having that one when I was a kid. I'm a man now. I'm Joey Wheeler, one o' the best gamers in the world! Suddenly, his alarm clock went off, bringing the young man out of his delusions. "Holy crap!" he shouted out loud, "I got school, and I'm runnin' late!!!"
