The faint outline of the walls and ceiling of skulls could be seen, ghastly spectators for the two duelists who fought. Neither duelist was clearly defined, covered in a haze unaffected by the glowing green seal that encircled them.
It started with one skull, grinning as it fell to the earth. But soon they all rained down. A barrier shimmered as the skulls struck and were repelled away from the duelists and crumbled into dust, revealing a dark and desolate forest, little better then what it had replaced.
One duelist had two spell or traps face-down as well as a hulking giant made of steel (8/2700/1500).The other, previously with one card, now had none.
Without warning, wind began howling through the battlefield. The two face-down card were drawn into the storm and torn apart.
Then, flames sprouted from the earth on the empty field. Forming an egg shape.
Slowly, a thing began to emerge from the flames. An exoskeleton arm, red as the flames it left. It was followed by another arm, then a horned face without a mouth. Then wings, then a tail…
Whatever the thing was, it wasn't natural. A bizarre mishmash of creature parts that simply didn't come together in the mind.
But it was there, and the flames that birthed it now expanded as it rose above, splitting into ghostly faces that cried out in agony.
And then, the creature pointed, and the hordes of firey spirits lunged towards the machine, and the duelist it protected.
The flames drew ever nearer, the cries of agony changed to roars of bloodlust, until finally…
In an underground bunker, within a small confined cubicle, the person inside woke up with a yell, and the sealed door containing him promptly burst open.
