Chapter 4: Two vs. The World
Yugi slept in Yugioh's arms as Yugioh continued to carry him through the air. The Great Spririt had confirmed to Yugioh the the world was under the Legion of Doom's mind control machine. Now the only thing was to find out where it was and destroy it. That would be a next to impossible task now that the whole world is against them. Yugioh awakened Yugi the next morning.
"Did you sleep well?" Yugioh asked.
"Yes, but it was a troubled sleep. The entire world is after me," Yugi responded.
"I know; it is troublesome. But we have to find a way to break the mind control over the world's populace," Yugioh said.
A group of attack helicopters and Marine and Air Force jets headed toward the duo. They were twenty feet and closing. Yugioh got tense. He sensed the jets and helicopters.
"What is it?" Yugi asked.
"The Marines and Air Force sent out a group of attack helicopters and fighter jets after us. That's not all. I sense that Wonder Woman and Batman and Robin are with them," Yugioh responded.
"What are we going to do? They don't know what they're doing because they're under the mind control," Yugi said.
"I know Yugi, but I can defend you," Yugioh said as he flew on.
The helicopter and fighter jet pilots attacked with a barrage of machine guns, lasers and missiles. The onslaught of fire didn't affect Yugioh at all, and the shield protected Yugi from being hit. Yugioh turned to face them as the helicopters fired again. Yugioh turned the bullets into feathers, and the guns into dust. The guns turned dust blew away in the wind from the helicopters' propellers.
"Robin, fire the bat net," Batman said.
"Check Batman," Robin said as he fired the net.
The missile spread out and became a net. Yugioh's attention was on the fighter jets. Luckily, Yugi saw the net.
"Yugioh, net coming at 10 o'clock," Yugi said.
Yugioh looked up and saw it. "Time to turn up the heat," he said as he breathed fire at it. The net dissolved to nothing in his fire.
Keeping Yugioh distracted was their strategy. Wonder Woman fired her lasso rockets from her invisible jet and tied Yugioh up.
"Do you honestly believe that you can hold me with these puny things?" Yugioh asked as he stretched out his wings and broke the lasso from around him.
Then, the jets fired again. Yugioh unwrapped his arm from under Yugi's knees and waved it in an arch motion over his head. He had created a rainbow, but it was not an ordinary rainbow. Each color represented something. The red part fired a laser beam, which destroyed the missiles. The yellow part was like the sun and fired a sunbeam, destroying the lasers from the jets and helicopters.
The green part lashed vines at the helicopters' landing gear while the violet part charged them. Instead of electricity, the charge was a teleportation charge that sent the helicopters back to base. The jets and Batman and Robin fired their missiles again. The orange part of the rainbow was like fire and shot out of a stream of fire to destroy the missiles. The blue part totally disarmed the jets, and Yugioh used the indigo part to teleport out of America. Afterwards, the rainbow disappeared.
"Holy disappearing acts Batman, they got away," Robin said.
"They got away from us Robin, but they can't hide. Even though Yugioh has the power of invisibility, he and Yugi can't stay like that from the world forever," Batman said.
"Wonder Woman to Green Lantern, have you seen Yugioh or Yugi yet?" Wonder Woman asked.
"Not Yet Wonder Woman," Green Lantern responded. He was in London.
The Superfriends spanned the globe in case Yugioh decided to go intercontinental. To Green Lantern's luck and Yugioh's lack of luck so far when it came to running into someone, Yugioh arrived in London. Yugioh landed in a desterted alleyway and Yugi down. He removed the shield for now as well. To his and Yugioh's surprise, no one was out and about today.
"Where is everybody? This is unusual for London according to what Bakura said about it," Yugi said.
"I have a feeling that we're going to find out right about now," Yugioh responded.
As soon as Yugioh said that, a green beam came down in front of them. A green T-rex appeared in front of them. They looked up and saw Green Lantern.
"A good trick Green Lantern, but can you do this one?" Yugioh asked, as he became an electrically charged tidal wave. He crashed into the beast, and it screamed from the increased power of the electricity. He charged himself with electricity as well because just about everyone knew that water makes electricity stronger.
The beast was destroyed, and Yugioh changed back to normal in the air. He saw Green Lantern flying away. He looked down and saw that Yugi wasn't on the ground anymore. Yugioh sped off after Green Lantern. Green Lantern knew that Yugioh would try to catch him.
"Let's see how you handle being in a green energy bubble," Green Lantern said as he encased Yugioh in a bubble and flew off.
"Not bad, but this can't hold me," Yugioh said as he popped it with yellow fire. He was back on Green Lantern's trail.
Green Lantern had a dilemma. The 24-hour charge in his power ring was almost spent. He dropped Yugi and headed back to the Hall of Justice. Yugioh flew down and caught Yugi.
"Are you all right?" Yugioh asked.
"I am now," Yugi responded. "Why did he just leave like that?" he added.
"Green Lantern's powers don't last forever Yugi. Every 24 hours, he has to recharge his ring. I saw the battery in the Hall of Justice," Yugioh responded.
"Well, make it disappear for a while. That way, Green Lantern will be powerless until we find out how to relieve him and everyone else of the mind control," Yugi said.
"An excellent suggestion Yugi," Yugioh said as he made the battery disappear into thin air for a while.
Green Lantern returned to recharge his battery to find the battery gone. He searched everywhere in the Hall of Justice for it, but he couldn't find it. 'This must be Yugioh's doing. I'm grounded here until he returns,' he thought.
As Yugioh flew on, a barrage of ground-fired missiles headed right for him. He flew out of the way, but these missiles were heat-seeking missiles. The missiles simply turned and followed him.
"Yugioh, those are heat-seeking missiles," Yugi said as he saw the missiles behind them.
"I guess that it's time for a little scrambling then," Yugioh said. He turned his head and fired a beam from his eyes.
The beam scrambled the missiles' guidance system, and they collided with each other. Yugioh then hovered where he was. The ground troops took the opportunity to fire again.
"We're going to get hit!" Yugi said alarmingly.
"With what, roses?" Yugioh asked, as he turned the missiles into rose.
The roses fell harmlessly to the ground. Yugioh then dove into the ocean. He still carried Yugi through the water as he headed east. The ground troops in London alerted Aquaman that Yugi and Yugioh were in the water.
"Thanks guys, I'll take it from here," Aquaman said.
Yugioh had let go of Yugi, and they swam side by side. Suddenly, a long arm wrapped itself around Yugi and pulled him back. Yugioh turned around to see Yugi being held by a giant squid. At the same time, a stingray stung Yugi in both legs. The venom acted quickly and paralyzed Yugi from the waist down.
"Let him go," Yugioh demanded.
The squid was terrified when it saw Yugioh's face. It didn't realize that it had captured the friend of the one who is one with the elements. It quickly let go of Yugi and told Yugioh that it would never do anything bad to Yugi again.
"I didn't tell you to let go," Aquaman said.
"You may be king of the sea Aquaman, but you have forgotten that I'm one with the elements. No animal, land, air or sea will dare go against me. In other words, you're only the prince of the sea while I'm here," Yugioh said as he cured Yugi of the venom and healed the wound. He then scooped up Yugi and teleported to space.
"Why are we here?" Yugi asked.
"Knowing how the Superfriends work, they're probably scattered all over the world," Yugioh responded.
"They can track you because you have your communicator with you," Yugi said.
"No they can't. I left my communicator at the Hall of Justice," Yugioh said.
Unfortunately, they failed to notice a group of space shuttles nearby. The astronauts radioed the info the Superfriends, and Superman was on the way. He got there pretty quick and cut off Yugioh's path.
"Get out of my way Superman. I don't want to hurt you," Yugioh said.
As a way to say no, Superman used his heat vision on Yugi. Yugioh blocked the heat vision, with his own laser vision.
"Not bad Yugioh, but let's see if you can handle this," Superman said before he used his freeze breath to freeze Yugi and Yugioh in a block of ice.
In only a second, the ice started to melt. Superman could see an orange glow around Yugi and Yugioh. A few seconds later, the ice completely thawed.
"You're going to have to do a lot better than that to defeat me," Yugioh said. He closed his eyes in concentration and created a small red sun. "I suggest you leave before you lose your powers. I don't want to hurt you, and this is the best way of saying get out of the way without hurting you," he added.
Superman had no choice but to leave. He could feel the small sun draining him of his power.
"What are we going to do now? We can't stay up here," Yugi said.
"I know Yugi, and that's why we're going back to earth. We're going to find and destroy that mind control machine," Yugioh said as he teleported back to earth. He landed, put Yugi down, and they walked side by side.
Suddenly, a ball of compressed air landed right in front of them. Yugi was blown back quite a few feet away from Yugioh. He looked up and saw Samurai hovering high above him with another ball of compressed air in hand. Samurai threw the ball at Yugi. A few seconds before impact, an unknown source of wind blew the ball back at Samurai. Samurai dodged just in time.
"Are you all right Yugi?" Yugioh asked as he landed in front of Yugi.
"I am now thanks to you," Yugi responded.
"How could you overpower my power of wind?" Samurai asked as he flew lower.
"Your powers are great, but my strength increases my already great power. What you saw was only a small sample of what I could do. In other words, consider yourself lucky because I don't want to hurt you," Yugioh responded. Just then, he felt a small bomb explode on contact with him. He turned and saw that the Army had joined in the battle were throwing hand grenades.
One of the soldiers threw a grenade straight at Yugi's heart.
"Oh no you don't!" Yugioh shouted as he caught the grenade and threw it at one of the tanks.
Fortunately for the soldiers, the tanks were built to withstand bullets, lasers and hand grenades. Yugioh could sense that the tanks had tough armor; that's why he threw the grenade at one of them. No one would get hurt. Meanwhile, the Legion of Doom was just watching the many battles taking place.
"This is the best plan we've put into action so far. All we do is sit back and watch the people of the world do the work for us. So far we have half the world's wealth and riches. Soon, we will have all the world's wealth, and Yugioh won't be able to stop us because he is busy trying to keep his young friend safe," Luthor said.
"I agree Luthor. Now we are the ones in the driver's seat. All we do is give commands, and the people do them without a hint of hesitation," Cheetah said.
"The only bad thing about it is that it's really boring. I loved terrorizing the people," Scarecrow said.
"I have to agree there. Let's give that ancient Pharaoh a chance to stop us. We won't reveal the location of the machine of course. We'll just clue him that the machine is all wet," Riddler said.
"An excellent idea Riddler, you can lead him and his friend on a search for the mind machine. To make it more challenging than it already is, we'll have the Superfriends and a large group of submarines be located at each of your riddles' location," the evil sorcerer said.
"Agreed," Luthor said as the other members nodded.
It was soon nightfall. Yugioh dove into the western Pacific. He landed on the ocean bottom and laid Yugi donw. He and a group of marine animals watched over Yugi as he slept. Yugioh made sure to give Yugi oxygen as he slept on the ocean floor. Tomorrow morning, the puzzling search for the mind control machine would begin.
I surprised myself with this chapter. It wasn't as hard as I thought once I brainstormed. Honestly though, if you want to read something in my story, tell me. If you don't my mind can beat you at giving me suggestions, and that's nothing short of the truth. Preview for Chapter 5: The World Is Free: The Riddler leads Yugi and Yugioh through hundreds of miles of water to find the mind control machine. The Superfriends and group of subs serve as stumbling blocks on the riddle-filled journey to the mind machine's location.
