The Heroes of Destiny
Chapter 1
Meant To Live For So Much More
The desert's sun beat down upon the small village in the middle-east. The sand blew with the wind; blowing the robes of the villagers with each breath of air. The peoples are covered in their robes, covering the majority of their bodies.
One of the women, as told her gender by her gorgeous, feminine blue eyes, caroused the basket of apples at one of the stands. The stand was crowded with villagers, violently buying apples and other fruits. One of her hands circled in a bin, while the other cleverly pocketed an apple from a lower bin.
She turned and walked away. Her eyes shut in accomplishment. She pulled out the apple, and pulled her robe from her mouth. She attempted to take a bite – a hand stopped her. "You didn't pay for that" an Arabian-accented voice rang.
"I did!" she yelled, trying to pull away. "I watched you, thief! Off with your hand!" a sword pummel handle was gripped, and ripped from the sheath. A swift kick to the knee was enough to free her from his grip.
She took off running. "After her!" the Head Guard screamed, as he and his men pursued her. She pushed, jumped, and slickly manoeuvred through the large crowd. Whilst the guards simply tanked their way through.
She turned and slipped through an alley; she passed a man who sat on the ground, fully covered in robe. His brown eyes sparkled with interest.
The woman kicked through a door on a stone building roof. She ran towards the edge, no fear in her heart, she leaped off the roof unto another.
The guards followed, however only three made the jump. The woman came to a full stop at the end of a building with no other way for escape but to drop fifty feet. The Head Guard jumped onto the roof, the other two falling from it; not fit enough to make it.
"It's over." he growled as he held his sword tight. She backed to the ledge. She was done for; or, so she thought. The Guard moved closer and closer, about to attack.
The sword was thrown from the Guard's hands. The robed figure stepped out from behind the Guard. "You will not strike down this woman. I won't let you." The figure moved across the roof, and spun around to face the Guard, protecting the woman.
"What are you going to do about it?" the Guard chuckled. The figure raised his arm and pulled his robe off his arm to reveal a duel disk. A red trim around the white and cyan disk.
The Guard bursted into laughter. "You think you could beat me? Bring it on!" the Guard chuckled. The Guard revealed a small shackle on his forearm. It activated – becoming a golden duel disk.
"Duel!" they both proclaimed.
[Figure : 4000 LP | Guard : 4000 LP]
"I'll go first!" the Guard called, as he drew a sixth card. "I'll start by summoning Gravekeeper's Spear Soldier in attack-mode (ATK/1500 DEF/1000)!"
A holographic card appeared on the rooftop. A black robed figure emerged from the card, a large spear in hand.
"And I'll play two cards face-down," two cards appeared face-down behind the Spear Soldier, "and I'll end my turn." (3)
[Gravekeeper's Spear Soldier | DARK | 4STAR | Spellcaster / Effect | When this card attacks with an ATK that is higher than the DEF of your opponent's Defense Position monster, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points. | ATK/1500 DEF/1000]
"My move!" the Figure pulled a card from the top of his deck. He looked at his hand, pondering his move. He smiled to himself, "It's already over." the figure smiled. "First, I play the card Polymerization! This card allows me to fuse two or more of my monsters to make one powerful monster!"
Two monsters appear on the field, one very small, one large. They spin into a blue and orange spiral; spinning and combining.
[Polymerization | SPELL – NORMAL | Send Fusion Material Monsters that are listed on a Fusion Monster Card from your hand or your side of the field to the Graveyard, and Special Summon that Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck.]
A large orange and green monster appears from a twister. A cape around his torso. "Elemental Hero Great Tornado (ATK/2800 DEF/2200)!
The figures robes were thrown off to reveal a familiar face: Jaden Yuki. Just as he was when he left Duel Academy. His long hair, and familiar red jacket with black shirt. "When my Elemental Hero Great Tornado is summoned, all your monsters attacks are cut in half!"
A tornado flew out from Jaden's monster, striking Gravekeeper's Soldier. His attacking lowering.
(GRAVEKEEPER'S SPEAR SOLDIER : ATK/750)
[Elemental Hero Great Tornado | WIND | Warrior / Fusion / Effect | 8STAR | 1 "Elemental Hero" monster + 1 WIND monster. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon. When this card is Summoned, halve the ATK and DEF of all face-up monsters your opponent controls. | ATK/2800 DEF/2200]
"Next, I play my spell card, Heavy Storm!"
A large hurricane attacked the two face-down cards, which instantly blew up.
[Heavy Storm | SPELL – NORMAL | Destroy all spell and trap cards on the field.]
"Now, attack, Elemental Hero Great Tornado! Twister!" Jaden commanded. The large creature fired a twister, hitting the Soldier dead on. The monster, destroyed, allowed the backlash to strike the Guard.
[Guard : 1950 LP]
"But that's not it! I activate the spell card De-Fusion!"
The monster returned into a green and blue spiral. Two creatures emerged out into the open on the field. One large golden armoured, and one small bird in a cocoon.
[De-Fusion | SPELL – QUICKPLAY | Return 1 Fusion Monster on the field to the Extra Deck. In addition, if all the Fusion Material Monsters that were used for the Fusion Summon of that Fusion Monster are in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon them all to the field.]
"Elemental Hero Bladedge (ATK/2600 DEF/1800) and Chrysalis Chicky (ATK/600 DEF/400)! Bladedge, attack!"
Bladedge leaped forward, slicing straight into the Guard, reducing his life points to zero.
[Elemental Hero Bladedge | EARTH | 7STAR | Warrior / Effect | During battle between this attacking card and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent. | ATK/2600 DEF/1800]
[Chrysalis Chicky | WIND | 2STAR | Winged Beast / Effect | You can Tribute this card while "Neo Space" is on the field to Special Summon 1 "Neo-Spacian Air Hummingbird" from your hand or Deck. | ATK/600 DEF/400]
[Guard : 0 LP]
The holograms faded away, as the Guard fell to his knees. "Game over." Jaden winked.
He turned towards the woman. "I have saved your life, don't make the mistake of stealing again."
Jaden walked to a ledge, and gripped the ladder. He slipped down it and disappeared into the crowd once again.
"Yubel, it's not just the fact of me being selfish anymore! It's like, I'm strong, Yubel, and I'm tired of just wasting all my power!" Jaden explained, angry and bold. Jaden punched a wall.
He was now in a hotel, somewhere in the middle-east. His room was small, which contained a bed, and a desk with a computer.
"I know, Jaden. But for now we have to remain underground for a little while. After what happened back in America..."
"That was two years ago!" Jaden roared. They were talking about the event which happened back in Domino City.
Jaden had joined a tournament called "The Next Duel Monsters Master". He had beaten his way through multiple rounds. He made it to the semi-finals, where his opponent was a very talented duelist named Yassir.
Jaden defeated him after a long hard duel. Later that night, the police had been called, fore Yassir was missing. They looked, and found his hotel room a mess. Blood had been splattered on the walls.
They found a card in his apartment, an Elemental Hero. With that, and a finger print on the card, they accused Jaden. However, Jaden and Yubel had performed no such act. With Jaden wanted for arrest, he fled to the middle-east for two years.
"I'm going back," Jaden declared, "I'm going back and I'm going to keep on the safe side, not draw any attention to my name. Except..." Jaden looked down guilty. Yubel smiled. "I know, Jaden, remember, I'm part of you."
Jaden pulled out an envelope from his pocket and slipped out a letter. On the top, in big, bold letters: THE 20TH BATTLE CITY ANNIVERSERY.
"I want to enter, Yubel, and I want to win."
"Then, let's do it, Jaden."
