Episode 1: The Tournament Begins! Barrel Dragon's Gamble
==============================================
Nas Escobar: The rules of the tournament are simple. Each duelist starts out with 5000 life points. The players will have to bet their decks and locator card. The city has been split up into two parts, each part containing different locator cards distributed. To tell the difference so you don't get two of the same locator cards, the duel disks have been engraved with a marking. You try to find people with different markings. After you beat someone and take his or her locator card, it would create a map leading to The place where you sign up for the second round. The rules are slightly different in the second round though, so it'll be more exciting. And to make it fair, I will be participating in the tournament as well. Good luck to all of you.
After hearing Nas Escobar explain the rules of the tournament, the contestants headed off to find others to duel.
Mas828 was just about to go buy some food to eat when he was challenged to a duel.
Ralos: Do you accept my challenge?
Mas828: Sure do! Prepare to be defeated! Duel!
Ralos: I'll go first. I'll set 3 cards and set one card face down. Go.
Mas828: I set one card face down and summon Big Shield Gardna in defence mode!
Ralos: I think I'll activate Mystical Space Typhoon on your face down card just in case you're planning an attack.
Mas828: No! My Mirror Force!
Ralos: I summon Mystical Elf in attack mode.
Mas828 though to himself, "Why did he summon that monster? I could easily destroy it. Unless.
Ralos: I'll also flip up my face down card, Summoner of Illusions! I'll offer my Mystical Elf as a tribute to summon my Warrior from Another Dimension!
Mas828: No, that means my monster will be destroyed!
Ralos: Yes! And with that, I'll attack your life points directly!
Mas828 could only watch as his life points dropped to 2650.
Ralos: That's not all I do! I activate Dimension Hole! My warrior is safe from my Summoner of Illusions effect! Make your move.
Mas828: I'll set 3 cards face down and end my turn.
Ralos: Nothing much else you can do, other than wait for the inevitable to happen. I get my Warrior from Another Dimension back and attack your life points directly!
At only 300 points left, there was nothing Mas828 could do. He had to draw a card that would destroy the monster, or else there was nothing he could do.
Mas828: Aha! Tribute to the Doomed! I discard one card from my hand to destroy your Warrior.
Ralos: Fine. Have it that way. It doesn't matter.
Mas828: I now set one monster in face down defence position. Take your turn.
Ralos: I think this is a good time to summon my Soul of Purity and Light! Attack his monster!
Mas828: My Cyber Jars effect has now been activated!
Ralos: Grrrr.
Mas828: I set 2 monsters to the field.
Ralos: And I set 1 monster, and finish my turn. Go.
Mas828: I now sacrifice my 2 monsters to summon the Barrel Dragon! Activate ability!
Suddenly three coins appeared on the field and flipped themselves. There was one that was heads, and the coin flew into a slot on Barrel Dragons cannons and the cannon started glowing with the built up energy. The second coin was a tails, and disappeared.
Mas828: Please Barrel Dragon you can do this!
The last coin was shown to be heads, and the Barrel Dragon was fully charged. Two Blasts came out of the cannons, destroying the face down card, Garuda the Wind Spirit.
Mas828: Yes! Now, attack him directly! He had made an amazing comeback and brought Ralos' life points down to 2400.
Ralos: You'll pay for that! I set one monster face down and end my turn.
"My Man-Eater Bug will finish him off," Ralos thought to himself, "But if he gets two heads again, he'll finish me off. This is a big risk, but I know he wouldn't be able to do it again."
Mas828: I activate Barrel Dragon's effect again, and target your monster! C'mon Barrel Dragon, you haven't let me down before. I believe you can do this!
He watched as the coins flipped. Tails. Ralos took a deep breath and hoped for another one. Heads. Mas828 watched in worry. And the last one.
To be continued!
