Authors note. this story takes place in the word of 5Ds as well as in our world.
Doctor Crowler stood in the front of the class. My friend James in the row in front of me and my brother on the opposite side of the room asleep. Unfortunately Crowler would put a stop to that. "SLACKER" He shouted. Not surprising he fell out of he's chair. "Ye-yes sir." He said standing up.
"Explain to the class what the spell card Circle of the Fire Kings does" He said with a grin on his face. "it uh allows the user to summon a fire monster from the deck?" He said hesitantly.
"MORON" said an Obelisk blue loudly. My brother got red in the face and sat down. James stood up and said"Circle of the Fire Kings effect is as follows: Target 1 FIRE monster you control and 1 FIRE monster in your Graveyard; destroy the first monster, and if you do, Special Summon the second monster from your Graveyard. But the only draw back to this card is that you can only activate 1 "Circle of the Fire Kings" per turn."
Crowler looked at him and nodded curtly. "I could not have said it better." I smirked and glanced over at my brother. He was shuffling his cards and took a look at one. Grinning he placed it back.
"OK its time for a practice match up." said Crowler looking around the class. " You there Dryden and Slacker" he said looking at my brother. "4000 life points. standard tourney ruling."
I poked James in the shoulder. "David is not much of a duelist so I don't know if he can win this"
Their duel disks activated and the duel began.
"Lets roll." David said. "I will go first and I summon Muraurding Captian in attack mode. I will activate his special ability. This allows me to summon another warrior monster from my hand that is level 4 or lower. So I summon Murauding Captian. I will end with 3 face downs."
That was an ok first turn for my brother. Even Crowler made a face.
"My move." He said. "First I play the spell card Foolish Burial. With this card I can send one monster from my deck to my grave yard. I think i will choose my Quilbolt hedgehog. Next I discard my Level eater to special summon Quick Draw synchron. Next I summon my Junk synchron. With his ability I can summon a level 2 or lower monster from my grave so I will summon my Quilbolt Hedgehog. next I will synchro summon my Junk synchron and my Quilbolt Hedgehog for a personal favourite of mine. T.G. HYPER LIBRARIAN."
"Not so fast." My brother cried."I play a trap." Crowler's face went to white faster than a D-wheel can rotate a tire. Every one gasped as the trap showed up. "Bottomless trap hole. This trap card activates when you summon a monster with 1500 attack points or more. and that Librarian of yours has more than 1500 so he goes bye bye. well he is removed from play." I smirked well played little brother. thats one monster gone but Dryden doesn't give up.
Dryden growled. "You may have stopped my librarian but there is still one more. I play Level Eaters effect from the grave. I can take a level 5 or higher monster on my side of the field and decrease its level by one it gets special summoned on to my field. But he wont be staying long. I synchro summon my quick draw synchron with my Level Eater to summon JUNK WARRIOR. Fortunently for you I must end my turn."
The Junk warrior looked Big but it was just a Hologram.
"Draw." David grinned. "Uh-oh." I said. "If he is grinning now then this is not good." "I play the trap card reckless greed. This trap allows me to draw 2 new cards. At the cost of my next 2 draw phases I cant draw. Next I summon Gene-Warped Warwolf in attack mode. Next I will activate the trap card Reinforcements so my war wolf gains another 500 attack points ontop of his 2000. and i will attack your Junk Warrior."
Dryden winced as is life points dropped by 200 going from 4000 to 3800. "Next Both my Captians will Attack you Directly. GO TWIN CAPTIAN BARRAGE."
"Gah." Dryden cried. His life points now down to a measly 1400. "I will set one card and end my turn." said my brother. He was so close on winning his first duel.
The Door opened and shut. I looked up and watched the student teacher observing the duel. Former students could come back to help out struggling students and get training to become a Dueling Intsructor. I looked over at James. He seemed to be over in his own little world. I looked in the direction he was looking at and Saw Alexis, The student teacher. She graduated Duel academy a few years ago and came back to start training. I think that James may have developed a crush on her,as was almost every male Student in the entire freaking academy. I personally don't see what they like. I mean sure her chest was nice but she is not my type of chick.
Dryden drew a card. "I will set one card face down and one monster in defense mode." He said.
"Due to Reckless Greed I cannot Draw this turn. But thats just fine by me. I have the cards i need to win right here." said my brother.
I knew now something was wrong. David was never this confident. Unless... I glanced at Alexis. She might have helped him out and helped him fix his deck. I turned my attention back to the duel. "I activate a spell card. Nobleman of Cross-out. This spell card removes one of my opponent's monsters from play and then if either one of us has the same card in our deck then we must remove all copies of it." A Holo graphic swordsman stood in front of Dryden's Monster and stabbed it. the card lifted and "Man eater bug?" David said. "bummer. I only Have one in this deck." He pulled it out and reshuffled his deck.
"NOW GENE-WARPED WARWOLF ATTACK WITH RAGE OF THE BEAST." David cried.
"I activate a trap card. MIRROR FORCE. With this all attack position monsters are destroyed." Dryden said with a sly grin.
David said "If I didn't have this little card all of them might be. MONSTER RECOVERY. This card allows me to send a monster on my side of the field and shuffle it and my hand back in to the deck. then I get to draw the same number of card that I had in my hand when i activated this card. So come back my Captian."
it was a good move. I have never seen him duel like this before.
He drew 3 cards from his deck after shuffling a captain and his hand back in to it. "Perfect. Since i did not summon this turn I can and well this card will look familar. Come on once more. Murauding Captian. And I will end by setting one more card face down."
Dryden drew one more card. David quickly intervened with a flick of the wrist "TRAP CARD. Secret Barrel. this card inflicts 200 points of damage for ever card you have on your field and in your hand. which is a grand total of 1000."Dryden gasped as holographic canon balls hit him in the stomach. His life points when from 1400 to 400"Next I activate the quick play spell card known as POISON OF THE OLD MAN. this poison is really good. For me anyways. I can choose to inflict 800 points of damage to your life points or i can gain 1200. I think you taking 800 is a good choice." Dryden had lost. Crowlers face was as pale as a ghost. 'AWE YEAH HE GOT THAT FROM ME." James said over enthusiastically. "way to duel." Just as Crowler had opened his mouth to say something as the bell rang and the class left.
