At 12:30 P.M., [[Seto Kaiba (manga)|Kaiba]] sits at his computer, tapping on the keyboard. He muses that "Ra" has the power to transfer a player's [[Life Points]] into [[ATK]], and attack all the opposing monsters and the opposing player in the same instant. He thinks to himself that "Ra" is an invincible [[Egyptian God|God card]] that decides the Duel in just one turn, and wonders if there's any way to stand up to God. [[Mokuba Kaiba (manga)|Mokuba]] comes over, surprised that his brother is still up, and tells him that he should go to bed, as tomorrow is the finals. Kaiba reassures his brother that he's fine, and gently tells him to go to bed. Mokuba knows that Kaiba's using the duel simulation software, trying to prepare for the opponent's strategy. He wonders if "The Sun Dragon Ra" is really that strong. Mokuba tells his brother that the ship is on schedule. They're supposed to get there at seven in the morning. He muses on the former base of KaibaCorp's weapons development, all ruins except for the [[Duel Tower]] that Kaiba built. Their adoptive father, [[Gozaburo Kaiba]], spent a fortune uilding that island. It was full of high-tech military equipment. He describes it as the center of darkness. After he died, Kaiba destroyed KaibaCorp the defense contractor and created KaibaCorp the game company, using the same technology for game development. He comments that the Duel Tower is like a symbol. Kaiba vows to win the finals on Alcatraz Island, and when he earns the title of Duel King, he will be unconquered in the world. Only when that happens will Kaiba be finally free of his curse. | At 12:30 P.M., [[Seto Kaiba (manga)|Kaiba]] sits at his computer, tapping on the keyboard.

He winces in his sleep and the Puzzle glows. Yugi finds himself inside his mind, emerging from the white door representing his soul room, and looking at the door set with the [[Eye of Wdjat]], now crisscrossed with angry veins. He has a bad feeling, knowing that something is wrong in his other self's room. He opens the door, reflecting that it's his first time going into his other self's room. He emerges into the maze of staircases and doors, looking around in wonder, and asking himself if this is a dream. He thinks that the maze is complicated, endless, and wonders why. Then, [[Dark Yugi (manga)|Dark Yugi's]] voice sounds out from behind Yugi, asking him what's wrong and if he sleepwalked into his room. Yugi freaks, protesting that Dark Yugi scared him. Dark Yugi laughs in apology, though he tells Yugi that this isn't a dream. Yugi states that he felt something strange from Dark Yugi's room. Dark Yugi agrees; he's been feeling it too. He asks if Yugi is surprised that the room of his soul is a maze. Yugi admits that he isn't, he kind of understands. Dark Yugi doesn't have memories, so this room is like a map of his soul that isn't sure which path to take. Dark Yugi seems surprised as Yugi vows to himself that one day he'll get Dark Yugi's memory back; that's part of his job. Dark Yugi looks around, admitting that someone else came here some time ago - [[Shadi]]. Dark Yugi explains that he came there looking for the "true room of his soul," but Dark Yugi himself doesn't know which door leads there. Yugi wonders what is in the room, what Shadi is looking for. He asks if it has something to do with Dark Yugi's memories. Dark Yugi replies that he doesn't know, but if even ''he'' doesn't know where the room is, finding it is not going to be easy. |
Higher up, Dark Bakura - or rather, the fragment of his soul he implanted in a piece of the Puzzle through use of Parasite Mind - thinks that that's an understatement. He still can't find the door. Dark Yugi tells his partner to go back to bed. Yugi agrees; tomorrow is the finals. He tells Yugi that he'll be fine, and that he's going to win to open his own door. Yugi agrees. | Higher up, Dark Bakura - or rather, the fragment of his soul he implanted in a piece of the Puzzle through use of Parasite Mind - thinks that that's an understatement.
