Hello people of the Magic the Gathering fiction verse. Darklinkblade here with my beta from my kingdom hearts story "heart of hearts: Path to Oblivion," yoursuicidalfriend. I decided to let him choosethe next type of fanfiction that I write as thanks for all his hard work on the last story he helped mewith. So he asked me to write a MTG fanfic so let's see if I can do this better than I do my other fanfics hmm…

Alright let's start this fic shall we?


"You are a Planeswalker. When you "play" a battle, it really happens. Everything is real. Never think for a moment that it's not. For the moment you do, you will be consumed in darkness."

"Alright, I'll tap eight mountains for red mana to use the spell Searing Spear which would normally only do 12 damage to you, but because of the effects of 'Curse of Blood Letting' it deals double the damage for a grand total of twenty four damage."

"Not so fast, pal. I tap all ten of my islands for blue mana to cast the instant spell Reversal of Fortune. This card allows me to null your attack and deal you the same amount of damage that I would have been dealt this turn."

"Aww man, that's the tenth time I've lost. Can't ya give me a break and let me win just once?"

"Ummm… no. if I let you win then you wouldn't feel as good as you would were you to win for real, now would you?"

"I guess not. Thanks for the game, Rainbow Knight."

"No problem White Warrior. If you ever feel the itch to play again just give me a ring and I'll come right over."

"O.K. I'll remember that."

"You better." We both picked up our cards and put them in the cases with our player names on them. We both were in the group that had started several years back. I had joined a year after it started and my friend had joined two years after me. There's really no leadership hierarchy in the group. Some of the members speculated that this was because no one knew anybody else's real name, unless you knew them from outside of the club. However if there was; I would be at the top. Not to brag, but ever since I started playing, I've never lost a battle whether one on one or otherwise. I looked at my watch to see what the time was. 2:30 pm. Good, my friend should be here any moment along with some of his friends. I smirked at the memory of what brought this situation on.

"Alright I'll attack you with my Fire Tiger for 3 and my Flaming Fire Bird for 17. That's a total of twenty. What are you going to do now Rainbow Knight?"

"Well, I think I'll use a card I just got today. By paying two mana of each color, I can activate it.

So here it goes: I activate the card Bonds of Faith! With this card on the field, and as long as you have

more monsters on the field then I do, I can't take damage. The only downside is that it only lasts for

three turns. This is turn one. Are you done with your turn?"

"Grrr. Always one step ahead huh?"

"That's how I have to play. If I don't play that way, then I'll lose. And I can't have my perfect

streak broken now can I?"

"Guess not. Alright, make your move."

And move I had. I only needed two turns out of the three to win the game. Then I made a smart-
aleckey remark about how even if it was three against one I could still win. He asked me if I was for real,

and as you can likely guess, I said I was, so he made me promise to be here so I could play against him

and two of his friends.

I smiled at the thought of an actual challenge. This game was too easy but I just couldn't quit. It wasn't in my nature. I heard the sound of the door opening and then feet on stone. I smirked; it seems my challenge had arrived. Or had it? This could end up like any other match I'd played. My opponent or opponents would try their best to win and I'd win without even trying. I sighed. The steps got closer and closer. I could bail now, but that would make me look like a chicken, and if there's one thing I'm not it's a chicken. I sighed, stood up, and went to meet my guests. Little did I know that the events of this day would flip my entire life around.


That's a rap folks. Thanks for reading this, I guess. Hope you like it.

Till next time I guess.
