The Phoenix Duellist
The events of Yugioh GX never happened and may or may not occur as it is my deck in real life I/my OC will be using the 'Onslaught of the fire kings' structure deck with a little bit extra as the name suggests this duellist will rise from the ashes of former legendary duellist Yugi Moto and try to become the next king of games…
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Yugioh (owned by shonen jump) and any characters related to the Yugioh GX series I only own my OCs Darren Garunix and Danica storm
Chapter 1- The Entrance Rite
As the duel field was filled with people testing their decks and skill against various teachers and their exam decks I was feeling nervous but yet I also felt a rush of adrenaline for this is the day I get the chance to join the duel academy. I was watching a certain duellist face a teacher with spellcasters and I couldn't help but feel I was going to burn through my foes life points with ease after all I possess a deck I will always hold close regardless of the situation.
"Next duel Darren Garunix VS. Professor Lioside"
Finally the fire in my heart roared into a raging inferno as my chance to be as good as all my idols has finally arrived.
"Let's start a fire" I shouted as I drew my hand the adrenaline overpowering all my nerves.
"We will see" Lioside said calm and collectedly as he drew his hand he started the duel as he was an examiner he started by activating a spell card called 'Samsara' whatever that did but I can tell he saw my puzzled look as he decided to explain its effect.
"Any card used for a ritual summoned are returned to my deck instead of sent to the graveyard"
As he explained I realised that I was in for a tough game as this was clearly a ritual deck and he wasn't finished by a long shot because things went from bad to worse when he ritual summoned ''The Masked Beast' a 3200ATK monster and then he ended his turn.
Now it was my turn and I had no monsters in my hand but I had an awesome set up first it was time for the key strategy.
"First I activate Onslaught Of The Fire Kings" I said filled with confidence this card allows me to special summon 1 Fire beast, beast warrior or winged beast monster card if I control no monsters although its effects are negated and is destroyed at the end of the turn so without any further ado I play 'Fire King High Avatar Garunix' a circle of flames appeared and bursting out of it was a giant phoenix.
"Well that was a waste your monster is not strong enough to defeat the masked beast so why play it"? Lioside asked with a grin on his face but this distraction allowed me to place 2 face down traps.
I ended my turn sending Garunix to the graveyard and we both chuckled for very different reasons
"What is so funny" he snarled unaware of the card effect
"When Garunix is sent to the graveyard by card effect he is special summoned back and destroys every other monster on the field so rise from the ashes Fire King High Avatar Garunix" I shouted when the burst of flame engulfed the entire field leaving the masked beast nothing but ash.
"Whaaaaaaaaaaat" he said a look of disbelieve on his face it was now his turn and I knew what he was going to make another ritual I just don't know what one until he said
"I activate machine angel ritual and offer ritual raven as it counts as the entire summon costs to play Cyber Anger Dakini" and I knew this is going to hurt
"As its effect you must destroy one monster you control" he explained so I had no choice but to destroy my only monster even though it comes back I'm open for a direct attack from a 2700 ATK monster
"Now my monster will attack you directly" Lioside said filled with confidence and a lot more than I had now whatever I do I got to do it fast or I will lose my chance to be the next king of games the things went bad to worse
"Now I use Tremendous Fire inflicting 1000 damage to you and 500 to me"
Darren 300 LP
Lioside 3500LP
He ended his turn allowing me to retaliate with Garunix's ability destroying Dakini next I drew a card that I needed a lot and may even give me a lead
"Now I activate pot of duality allowing me to show the top 3 cards of my deck and add 1 to my hand" I revealed 'Fire King Avatar Kirin' 'Horn Of The Phantom Beast' and 'rekindling' so I added 'Fire King Avatar Kirin' to my hand and shuffled the others into my deck.
"Now I summon Fire King Avatar Kirin" it was 1000 ATK so close to finishing him but not enough… until now
"I activate the field spell Molten Destruction giving all fire attribute monsters an additional 500 attack points at the cost of 400 defence points" now I had enough power to end the duel in fact more than enough
"So let's end this, my monsters attack you directly" with a rush of flaming feathers flying towards Lioside and Kirin's fire covered horn heading his way he knew as well as I did that it was over.
Darren 0300
Lioside 0000
"Well played" he said as he approached me.
"But I have never seen any 'fire king' card before where did you get them" he asked me.
"That sir is a secret" I said to him after all everyone needs originality in the world of duel monsters.
"Well you passed so we will see you at the academy you will be given your jacket on the way there that way you get something else to look forward to" he said and my face lit up quicker than petrol in a fire me a duellist with a fire deck defeating ritual monsters with a hand that had no monsters to begin with but I guess it proves that you can always count on luck to help you. As I began to leave with my victory still on my mind a female came from behind me
"So you passed, looked like you had no idea what you were doing other than relying on your Fire King High Avatar what I have not even heard of before." The girl said as form of an insult or so I think was an insult.
"Had nothing else I can do besides I passed and the fans like you loved it" I chuckled trying to sound like I was laughing at her attempt to flaw my duel.
"You are pretty hot headed for a guy who hardly won" she laughed
"I'm Danica storm and I passed my exam with 2500 life points what is your name hothead" she asked me and me being the fun loving guy who loves to make a lady laugh replied
"Apparently I am hothead" she laughed and then I thought it was time to introduce the phoenix duellist properly
"I am Darren Garunix" I said and she walked away giggling and said
"We should duel sometime if you're not too busy getting your butt kicked"
She met up with her friends and they were all giggling but I can't help but feel she is a great duellist and maybe one day she will be a great friend but only time will tell if we will ever duel or get along when we meet at the academy.
