Detective Conan and the King of Games
(A/N: I'm restarting this story. It'll still have the same general plot, but I'll try and make the writing better and I'll change some of the scenarios. I think it's fair to mention I haven't kept up with Detective Conan in a long time, but I know enough to work with. Also, most characters will have their English Dubbed names. Just a heads up. There will be dueling, but just like before, I'll have all kinds of cards from all 4 serieses, but Synchro and Xyz monsters are Tabuu)

Game On! Suspicion at the Arcade
It was nearing the end of another day in Teitan Elementary School. 'I wonder what this surprise is?' Conan thought thinking to an announcement earlier. "Okay students," the teacher called. "Later this week we will be taking a field trip to Domino City." All the students perked up in excitement. A short explanation later, class was dismissed and the Detective Boys headed to their HQ
"No way? Domino? Awesome!" George exclaimed. Conan walked over. "What's the big deal about Domino City?" he asked. "Conan, Domino City is the Duel Monsters capital of Japan, maybe even the whole WORLD!" Mitch explained.
"Duel Monsters?" "It's the card game everyone's talking about." Ai intervened. "Just recently, there was a big tournament that the game's creator was hosting," she explained. "Oh yeah. I remember that. Didn't he lose?" Conan asked. "Yep. He was defeated by a guy named Yugi Moto" Amy said. "Yugi lives in Domino City. If we go there for our field trip, we might get to meet him!" Amy said fangirling a little. Conan sweat dropped. 'These kids and their gaming icons' he thought.
"Hey, you think I can challenge him to a duel!?" George asked. "I doubt it. Even so, there's no way you could beat him," Mitch said matter of factly. "I know, but it would be awesome just to LOSE to Yugi!" he said. "Calm down George, it's just a card game." Conan deadpanned. "JUST A CARD GAME!?" The Detective Boys yelled at him. "Dude! It's not just a card game, it's an all out war!" George said. "With monsters that obey!" Mitch added. Conan rolled his eyes. Amy walked up to Conan. "Conan, you do have a deck right?" she asked. "Uhh, well…" "I knew it!" George screamed. "Amy, Mitch, grab him!" They did. "Come on guys, we gotta get to a store. We'll turn this kid into a duelist yet!" George vowed. With that, Conan was dragged out with the Detective Boys while Ai stayed back and started snickering. "Oh Kudo, look what you've gotten yourself into."
(An Hour Later)
The kids headed to the local arcade with their cards and Conan's new deck. They managed to find a spot for them to play where they wouldn't be disturbed. "Alright Conan, we've explained the rules, now show us what you got!" George challenged. Conan sighed. 'How did this happen?' The two got their decks and duel mats set.

"Duel!"
George: I'll go first. I draw! I summon Skull Servant! [Atk:300 Def:200]. Next I'll use, Axe of Despair to boost his Attack points by 1000 points! [Atk:1300 Def:200]. I end my turn. Your move Conan.
Hand: George-4
Conan: My turn, draw! I summon Speed Warrior. [Atk:900 Def:700]
George: Dude? Why would you summon a monster weaker than mine in Attack mode? I thought you woulda learned by now, your smart.
Conan: (smirks) Yeah, and I think you should relearn about Effect Monsters, like my Warrior.
George: So…what's his effect?"
Conan: When he's normal summoned, his Attack Points double to 1800.
George: WHAT!?
Conan: Speed Warrior attacks your Skull Servant!
Life Points-
George-1500

Conan: Finally, I'll set one card face down and end my turn.

Hand-
Conan-4
George: (Growling) Grrr, my turn, DRAW! I play, Blazing Inpachi! [Atk:1850 Def:0] Inpachi, Attack!
Conan: I activate, Zero Gravity. This switches the position of all your monsters on the field.
George: Fine, I end my turn.
Hand-
George-4
Conan: My turn, I draw. I summon Saber Beetle. [Atk: 2400 Def:600]
George: (Smirks) It doesn't matter your monsters have more Attack, since my Inpachi's in Defense Mode, I won't take damage.
Conan: Remember when I said some monsters have special abilities? Well here is my Beetle's power, whenever he attacks a monster in Defense Mode, the difference between his Atk and the other's Def is dealt to you as damage.
George: What does that even mean!?
Conan: It means my monster attacks and you take damage anyway. I win.

[Duel End]
Conan smirked at his first duel victory. 'I gotta admit, that was fun.' he thought. George on the other hand was raging. "Gaaaah! I can't believe Conan beat me!" Amy and Mitch both chuckled. "Oh don't feel too bad George, you weren't that good to begin with." Mitch said.
George grabbed Mitch by the collar. "You wanna repeat that you runt!?" "Uh…no." "Knock it off you silly boys." Amy tried to break them up. Conan started gathering his cards together when Ai walked up to him. "Well Conan, I didn't think you'd be one up for a game like this." she said. Conan turned to her. "Oh come off it. I actually enjoyed my match with George. Still, this game does have a couple of glaring issues, such as it's WAY too easy to summon powerful monsters. If they made it a bit more complicated, the strategy elements might be better." "Always one for a needless challenge aren't you?" Conan glanced at her un-amused.
The Detective Boys finally managed to stop quarrelling. "Well, we got some time before we need to go home." George said. "So who's up for a video game marathon!?" "Yeah!" Amy and Mitch agreed. The three ran off leaving Conan and Ai alone. "So, you wanna join them, or should we just walk out now?" Ai asked. Conan shrugged. "Do what you want, I'll hang around here. Someone needs to keep those kids out of trouble." Ai smirked, "But who'll keep you out of trouble?" she joked back. "Cute," Conan said sarcastically. Conan then took notice of a few suspicious looking characters. Both of them were wearing long dark robes. 'What're they up to?' he thought.
Conan walked towards them, being careful not to be noticed, with Ai following him. The two suspects started heading out of the arcade. "Conan, you're not thinking of following them are you?" Ai asked. "Not right now, but they do seem like they're hiding something." he whispered back. The two suspicious characters walked out of the arcade leaving Conan with a few choice thoughts. 'Okay, that was weird. What're those guys up to? And what's with the robes? It's got to be like 79 degrees outside.' Conan was lost in thought when the Detective Boys reappeared.
"What's wrong with Conan?" Amy asked. "I dunno, maybe he lost the games he was playin'." Mitch suggested. "Nevermind that, we all know Conan sucks at Video Games anyway." George said. Conan heard him and his eye twitched. 'Maybe so, but at least I'm a better duelist,' Conan mentally responded.
(A short time later)
Conan was walking back to the Detective Agency. 'Those two guys at the arcade, they seemed like they were looking for something. I wonder what could be so valuable at an arcade? If they were after money, they could've probably just taken the direct approach.' he thought about the possibilities the two suspects could've been after. Finally, he arrived back.
"I'm home!" he announced. Rachel greeted him at the door. "Conan, where've you been all this time?" she asked. "The Arcade. The gang showed me how to play this really cool card game." he told her. Rachel glanced at him and smiled slyly. "This game wouldn't happen to be Duel Monsters, would it?" Conan did a double take. "How did you-?" "What other 'really cool card game' is there?" she said. 'Heh, of course.' "You know, I actually just got into the game too." Rachel said. Conan did another double take. "You're a duelist? How?" he asked, slightly surprised.
"Serena and I saw some guys at school playing just when school let out. Serena thought it was childish and stupid, but I tried it out and had a blast." she explained. 'That does sound like Serena alright. But Rachel, didn't think she'd be interested in a game like this. Especially after…' Conan thought back to the case where Rachel first suspected he was really Jimmy. '…that happened.' he thought. 'Still, I wonder how good she is,' "Hey Rachel, you wanna have a duel right now?" Conan asked in a childlike manner. "I dunno, I do have to get dinner ready." she said. "Please?" he asked again. Rachel sighed. "After you asked so nicely, how could I refuse?" she finally gave in. 'Heh, that always works.' 'How does he always do that?' they both thought.

Hand-
Rachel-4
Conan: Draw. I summon the Vorse Raider. [Atk:1900 Def:1200] I attack your monster.
Rachel: My monster was the Mystical Elf. [Def:2000 Atk:800]
Conan: Your defense is higher than my attack so I take damage.

Conan: I'll set one card face down and end my turn.
Hand-
Conan-4
Rachel: Draw. I summon Magician's Valkyria. Next, I'll reveal my facedown card: Magicians Unite.
Conan: What does that do?
Rachel: If I have two or more Spellcaster type monsters, one of their attack points becomes 3000.
Conan: What?
Rachel: My Valkyria Attacks your monster and this game is mine.
Conan: (smirks) Not today.
Rachel: Huh?
Conan: I activate Defense Draw. My monster will still get destroyed, but I take no damage, and I get to draw a card.
Rachel: Aww, I thought I had it won. I'll end my turn.
Hand-
Conan-5
Rachel-4
Conan: My move. I draw. (Gasps. Smirks) I summon, my Saber Beetle! I'll attack your Elf.
Rachel: Sorry Conan, you HAVE to attack my Valyria due to her ability. If there are more than 1 Spellcasters on my field, you have to attack Valkyria.
Conan: Fine. I attack your Valkyria.

Conan-1900
Rachel-1200
Conan: I'll set 2 cards face down and end my turn.
Hand-
Conan-3
Rachel: I draw. Hehe. Hate to do this to you Conan, but here it goes. I play Dark Valkyria in Attack mode [Atk:1800 Def:1050].
Conan: 'Why would she play a monster weaker than mine in Attack Mode?'
Rachel: Next, I'll use this Magic Card, Super Double Summon.
Conan: What's that?
Rachel: Valkyria is a Gemini monster, meaning it counts as a Normal and Effect Monster. However, it's effect can only be used when you summon the monster twice. SDS lets me do that. I'll summon Valkyria again to give her a Spell Counter. Her Atk increases by 300. [Atk:2100] Now I'll remove the Counter to Destroy your beetle. And here's the kicker, the damage I would've taken in battle gets dealt to you.
Conan: What?
Life Points-
Conan-1300
Rachel-1200
Rachel: (Smugly) Well, it's your turn.
Hand-
Rachel-2
Conan: 'Man, she's good. She's good…' I draw. '…but I'm better' I summon my Prime Material Dragon [Atk: 2400 Def: 2000] Next I activate Blustering Winds. It increases my Dragon's Attack by 1000 points. I attack your Valkyria and that brings your life points down to 0. I win.

[Duel End]
Rachel sighed. "Well, that's that, you beat me." "Yup." Conan yawned. "Well, I gotta go work on my homework. Call me when dinner's ready." he said walking off. "Oh Conan wait." Rachel stopped him. She pulled a card out of her deck and handed it to Conan. The card she gave him was, "Your Dark Valkyria?" he asked. "I'm not that good at this game. Also, I doubt I'll play it much anyway, so I think you could put that card to better use than me." she said. Conan couldn't help but blush. "Gee, thanks Rachel." she simply smiled warmly at him. Preparing to head to the kitchen, she took another look at her cards. "I wonder if Jimmy would be interested in something like this." she said quietly. Conan heard her and tensed up. Casually walking back to his room, he thought to himself, 'She must NEVER know.'
End of Chapter
(A/N: I'm giving this fic a rewrite. Conan will meet up with Yugi and the crew, but a bit later. Maybe next chapter, maybe not. Also, on the Yu-Gi-Oh! Side of this crossover, I'm going to put it in the Battle City Tournament. Yes, Conan will participate(Spoilers), but he'll have a few different challenges to overcome as well.)
