(Author's Notes: Hey everyone, sorry for the long delay. College and work are just one big pain in the butt, but thankfully it will end by next spring in May. Hopefully.

Saiyan Moon Goddess: I think you're nuts for bringing all the characters. You're going to make me dizzy.

DJ: As for Yugi's love life, it's about to get serious!

Now, on with the fanfic!)

Chapter 21

Yugi and the gang were in Tsunade's office, the duel between Shikamaru and himself called off. Actually, Shikamaru surrendered because he knew that even if the people from Yugi's realm did not show up, the young duelist would have won with that behemoth Obelisk. The Godaime ordered Yugi and his friends to meet with her in private, beating the Kages and Council members to it. Just barely in any case. "Yugi, mind introducing me to your friends? And start explaining on just what the hell happened out there on the field?" the blonde leader inquired with a hint of command in her voice. Let it be known that Yugi saw what Tsunade did when she was irritated, and did not want to be on the receiving end of it.

"Tsunade-sama, these are my friends. The one that looks just like me is Atemu. He's the one I told you about some time ago, remember?" Yugi started to explain. Tsunade did see the resemblance and admitted that they could pass off as twins. However, she was not a Sennin for nothing. She could spot even the tinniest, subtle differences in people, which came in hand for trying to find imposters. Yugi went on to introduce the others to her, ending with Seto Kaiba. "Everyone, this is Tsunade-sama and her assistant next to her is Shizune-san. They helped me a lot since I arrived here about a month or so ago." he stated.

"A month?!" was the response by many of the group. This raised some confusion with Yugi and the two kunoichi, but Téa explained that to them, he was only gone a few days. "Well, time may move differently in other worlds. While months pass in this realm, only days pass in yours." Shizune suggested. Seto, Duke, and Pegasus were intellects to a certain degree and found that the theory was feasible. Yugi thought it would be best to start at the beginning, so he retold the tale on what happened when he first arrived in the shinobi world. Needless to say, they were all surprised from hearing about him using Slifer to revive Gaara to being able to repel powerful ninjas like Itachi and Sasuke.

"Yugi-kun, how is it that they arrived here?" Shizune asked. She had grown fond of the boy, like a little brother similar to Naruto. Atemu raised his hand and stated "I'm afraid that's my doing. Back in Egypt, we were looking for a way to bring Yugi back. Or at least find out where he was. I used an ancient spell that was combined with the Eye of Ra. From what I gathered when we arrived in the battlefield, it was Obelisk that provided the necessary signal and power and where to go." Pegasus added that something went wrong and they were sucked into the world rather then just simply going in and out to retrieve Yugi.

"But now the portal is gone, we're stuck here. Right?" Vivian asked. Marik shook his head and answered no. "You see, there is something I forgot to tell the pharaoh. With the particular spell he cast, it was set for a limited amount of time. The more energy is put into the spell, the longer the portal remains open. However, thanks to the influxation energy of Obelisk, it's now set for us. Each of us has a set amount of time, varying due to what position we were in inside the symbol. So, at any given time, any one of us could be sent back to our world." he explained. Ishizu quickly added in that Yugi was a special case, him being brought here by fate, thus no time limit for the small teenager.

"So... we just wait here until our time is up and we go back home?" Joey inquired. Tsunade stood up and said that she would look into housing quarters for them. "In the meantime, how about we have one of our shinobi be your guide for the entire day?" she suggested. With a snap of her fingers, Alex and Sarah appeared in a bowing position. The two were assigned to look after Sasuke, but when the Godaime calls for them nothing else matters. Besides, Sakura and her friends were with their ward so they knew that Sasuke would be in capable hands. Hopefully.

"Alex, Sarah. You two are to be guides for Yugi's friends here. Make sure that they are comfortable here in Konoha." Tsunade ordered. The two ninjas bowed to their leader and escorted a shell-shocked group out. Yugi smiled with a sweatdrop as he followed along. 'Guess I have to explain to them what kind of world this is.' he thought. When they left, Tsunade slumped into her chair and picked up the cup of tea that Shizune poured for her. 'This is going to bring a new round of headaches and paper work, I just know it.' she thought after gulping down the tea in one swing.

~Outside at Ichiraku Ramen bar~

Naruto was enjoying ramen from his usual favorite place, his friends and acquaintances joining. Sasuke was eating, but also being watched over like a hawk by Sakura, Lee, Neji, Kiba, Shikamaru, and Chouji. The boys still saw Sasuke as a traitor, and despite the council's declaration that he was a citizen of Konoha, that did not mean that they respected or liked him. Sakura was more then lenient to the Uchiha's status, but she kept reminding herself that Sasuke was a human and not the hero that she visualized for herself all those years ago. She was a medic-nin, trained by Tsunade herself, and would not put any more lives on the line just to appease Sasuke. The mission three years ago a reminder on what happened when she forced Naruto to promise her to bring back the Uchiha.

"Naruto, who do you think those people were who fell out of that portal?" Lee inquired. The blonde shinobi answered that he did not know, but that one of them looked like Yugi's twin. "Of course! They are his friends, the one he told us about!" Sakura declared. Seeing their blank faces, except for Shikamaru who figured it out, she said that she remembered what Yugi told them some time ago. "That other guy, who looks like Yugi, he's got to be Atemu." the pink-haired kunoichi stated. Everyone pulled the memory of Yugi's explanation and story, and remembered it now.

Temari mumbled "He's handsome, but not as adorable as Yugi-kun." Ino and Amber agreed with her. Atemu did look like a taller, sharper, and handsome version of the little teenager. However, Yugi had something that Atemu did not and it was not related to the Shadow powers. Yugi was expressive, a little more so then the pharaoh, and also was stronger then he led to believe himself. Yugi was really one of a kind. "Although, the sandy-haired kid in the green jacket didn't seem too bad either." Amber stated with a slight chuckle in her voice. Tenten voiced her opinion that the teen in the white jacket with the logo KC on it was pretty cute.

While they were discussing the details and assumptions of Yugi's friends, Sasuke was going over the duel in his mind. 'Yugi's not on par with Shikamaru in analytical department, but he comes close. He's one of the few people I have seen that comes close to match that fool's IQ.' he thought. However, he kept replaying the part on when Yugi summoned Obelisk. The behemoth was huge, close to Gamabunta's size. 'But, that was just the holograph projection. If Yugi summoned that beast in real life... he would really have infinite power.' Sasuke thought angrily. Despite his rehab treatments, he still wanted power in order to kill his brother. His avenger part was still with him, sadly. He wanted the power Yugi possessed, but in his current condition, he would not be able to even handle a chuunin let alone a god monster.

"Hey, what's up?" a familiar voice cut through the conversation and angry internal rants. They all turned around to see Yugi, only he was with Atemu, Téa, Rebecca, and Vivian. Rebecca and Vivian took a side of Yugi, linking arms that brought forth a jealous scowl on Temari, Ino, and Amber's faces. "Hey Yugi! What's up?" Naruto inquired. The teen answered that everything was fine, and also introduced his friends to his new shinobi/kunoichi acquaintances. "The others are staying at a nearby hotel, and also Pegasus and the Kaiba Brothers are talking with the technicians who copied their inventions and game." Yugi finished. There was a large sweatdrop behind his head, already thinking about on what Seto, Mokuba, and Pegasus were doing with Shizune and the ones who created the Konoha Duel Disk system and the replication of the card game.

Just as he thought that particular scenario, one could hear the arguments and sounds coming from the Hokage Tower. More specifically the technicians' part of it. Embarrassment was evident on Yugi's face when he heard Mokuba, Seto, and Pegasus's voices coming from it. "So Yugi, what are you going to do now since you're friends are here?" Kiba asked. The spiky-haired young man answered that he was thinking on asking Tsunade tomorrow for some special arrangements for his friends. "By the way Yugi, are you going to check out the Chuunin Exams?" Neji asked. He answered that he would, but after taking care of some things first.

~In the Hokage Office~

Tsunade was in a small, private meeting with Kakashi, Asuma, Jiraiya, Kunerai, Anko, Iruka, Gai, and Shizune. They were discussing one of the main topics that have been on for a while, even in the village. It was Yugi Motou. "Okay, here's the deal. After hearing Yugi's account of Atemu's past, I see within reason that the ancient one can properly teach the Motou brat on controlling his Shadow Realm powers." Tsunade spoke up. It was awkward of her to refer to Atemu as ancient, but she had to remember that chronologically, he was about 5,000 years her senior. Gai and Iruka agreed that having Atemu teach Yugi was a good thing, given that the pharaoh had experience on using the Shadow Realm powers and could pass that knowledge on to his "successor".

Asuma took a drag of his cigarette and put in "Hokage-sama, what about the other Kages who witnessed the sight? No doubt they have plans for Yugi and his friends, especially that snake Orochimaru." Kakashi agreed with him, stating that Orochimaru was more then likely cooking up a scheme that would involve Yugi, his new friends, and Sasuke. Kurenai added "The Kages are going to use this to their advantage as well, Tsunade-sama. What shall we do?" The blonde leader was in thought for a second, until an idea came to her mind. She turned to Jiraiya and asked about the situation with the Akatsuki.

"They're quiet for now, but that worries me. Most likely Itachi was brought to them and reported the situation to his superiors. I have a feeling that the Akatsuki are going to go after that Motou brat first, then focus on Naruto." the toad hermit stated. The jounins knew the situation with Naruto and the Akatsuki, but now with Yugi in the mix and his actions so far, it was going to be a stretch to try and protect them both. Naruto could handle himself fine, given his abilities and training, but Yugi was a wild card of sort. He had little to no shinobi training, did not know about the politics in this world, and also had power that no one else could comprehend. "Tsunade-sama, what is your plan?" Gai asked.

The blonde sighed and stated "We shall give them what the Kages asked for. After the Chuunin Exams are over, Yugi Mutou will go with some of our highly experienced shinobis/kunoichis. They will act as both guides and bodyguards, as they go all over the world to see how things are like in other countries. However, the ninjas will write a report back to me on a monthly basis. Yugi needs to see how things are, and hopefully find a means to get back to his world. Orochimaru will be torn on who to go after first, and also the Akatsuki will be confused for a moment when they find out that Yugi is no longer in Konoha." The high-leveled jounins and sennin saw the logic in her plan, give the Kages what they wanted but on Konoha's terms.

Also, the Akatsuki and Orochimaru would be torn on whom to go after first. "It could work, we could avoid any international incident while we keep the advantage. We'll have to inform Yugi about this." Kurenai said. They all nodded their heads, Jiraiya opting to remain silent. The adults started to make some plans, and back-up ones as well. Yugi and Naruto were going to be involved in a very large plan, one that might

~In the marketplace~

Yugi was with Temari, Atemu, Ino, Amber, Téa, Rebecca, and Vivian. Alex and Sarah ended their tour about an hour ago, so the group was taking another look around the place. Atemu was getting weird looks from the girls. He heard whispers of: "Is that Yugi's brother?", "He's cute, but not so as Yugi-kun", and also "He's just a Yugi-kun copycat!" This was a first for him. Yugi frowned sadly that they were being so mean to his friend. Temari was sticking close to Yugi, warning off any and all fan girls that would try to approach him. Rebecca, Vivian, and Téa could not believe that Yugi was popular in the shinobi world. Almost like a superstar of sorts.

Vivian was annoyed that Temari was so close to 'her' Yugi. "So blondie, where are you from exactly?" she inquired. She saw the ninja headband on her waist, and since it was different then the ones who showed her and the others around, she assumed that she was from somewhere else. Temari scowled at the Asian girl and remarked "I'm from Sand Village, if you must know. What's it to you, bimbo?" It was going to be a brawl right in the street, but fortunately Yugi prevented this by intervening. "Girls, please! Not here." he pleaded. The tempers simmered down a little, but the two were very wary of each other. Rebecca was not pleased with this development, especially with Temari hanging so close to her crush.

Téa inquired: "Yugi, what's going to happen now?" The spiky-haired teen thought on it for a moment, then answered that he honestly didn't know. "One thing is for sure though, tomorrow is going to be an interesting day. The Chuunin Exams are going to start, and its going to be a real test of survival for genins that want to move up a rank." he admitted. Atemu was about to say something when Seto Kaiba came on the scene. He was fuming mad, and it showed in his actions. "Damn techs... copying my technology without permission..." he mumbled to himself. To everyone who knew him personally, seeing this kind of Kaiba was amusing to say the least.

"So Kaiba, what happened?" Atemu asked. Seto Kaiba grumbled that since this was another world, he couldn't sue the technicians for copying his duel disk. However, after much argument and debate, they reached a sort of compromise. Konoha D.D. developers would make sure to give credit for the one who gave them the designs for the duel disk while Seto would digress on harassing them. "Pegasus was thrilled that the Duel Monsters game was being created here, but he also wanted to be recognized as the one who created it. So, they get to create them while he sees any and all plans for future monsters." Seto added. All who knew Pegasus sweatdropped, thinking on what kind of havoc he would have with the game now.

Yugi was busy thinking on things while the others talked to one another. 'This is very bad. With those Kages seeing everything, and Orochimaru witnessing it as well, I have a feeling that I'm putting my friends in danger!' he thought. He needed them to get back home quick so their lives would not be in jeopardy. However, he had not fully mastered his Shadow Realm or Millennium powers, so it would be some time until he either had the ability to do so or the spell that Atemu cast would wear off. He was about to walk again with his friends when he felt something. Something off and odd. He turned to his right and peered into a dark alley, but he saw nothing. "Must be imagining things..." he said to himself as he continued on, but a bit more slowly this time.

Out from behind some garbage cans emerged a Sound-nin male and Michiru. The two were under orders from their master to keep an eye on Yugi and his new friends. The two were assigned to watch over him and Atemu. "That one appears to be seasoned as a fighter, a bit more so then the shorter one." the male Sound-nin commented. The female spy shook her head and remarked "Small he may be, but he has power. Power that Orochimaru-sama wants. For now, we tail them and report back to him. When he sees an opportunity, he'll let us know." The two quickly vanished, sensing another person nearby. Things were heating up big time, and Yugi and his friends (both old and new) were right in the middle of it!

(Author's Notes: Sorry for the immense delay again. In any case, I hope you're satisfied with this.

Saiyan Moon Goddess: Tsunade has her hands full, as well as Naruto for his match coming up. If he completes it, he'll become an authentic chuunin! Although, he's high-level chuunin or low-level jounin in style and techniques already.

DJ: If you were in Tsunade's place, what would you do in this type of situation? Also, what do you think about the argument between the Kaiba Bros. and Pegasus against the Konoha technicians?

R&R, no flames, enjoy, and leave long reviews!)
