Carly knew it had been a stupid mistake for her to come here, but her desires for a scoop had gotten the better of her. After Jack had left her to fight against the dark signers she was left with nothing since he broke her audio clip. He claimed it was too dangerous for her to be with him and promised to tell her everything when it was all over. Though she understood his decision to a certain extent she was still deeply hurt and angry that he had just left her.
Deciding to continue looking for a scoop she researched a bit into the signers and discovered who the others were. One of them just so happened to be the Black Rose Akiza who was a member of the Arcadia Movement. With the information she gathered she found a connection between them and her friend Misty. From Misty's own words they had gotten their hands into her younger brother and took him from her.
Under the guise of a cleaner she infiltrated the Movement with two objectives. 1. Find out what happened to Misty's brother and other people who'd gone missing from the movement. 2. Interview Akiza to find out more about the signers and the Crimson Dragon. This was also a way for her to stay close to Jack who she really did like.
Unfortunately things didn't go as planned. When she searched Sayer's (the leader of the Movement) office she came across a hidden room with files on different people who'd gone missing. There was one file on Director Goodwin that caught her eye. Sadly she didn't get a chance to read it.
"Well, well a little mouse. You really shouldn't snoop around looking into things that aren't your business. You might end up getting into trouble," he said mockingly. "At first I thought you might be working for Goodwin but judging from that look on your face I'm guessing you're flying solo on this one. Doesn't matter though, now that you've seen all this I can't let you leave."
Carly backed away nervously. She knew Sayer was serious and had a good idea on what he was planning to do to her. Noticing her reaction Sayer laughed and tossed her a silver duel disk in the room which she caught. Carly noticed he had a gold duel disk on him.
"In the interest of good sport allow me to offer you a fighting chance," he told her.
"You want to duel," Carly responded surprised.
"I'm willing to give a small chance. Or should I just lock you away for the rest of your life now and be done with it," Sayer sneered.
In reality this was the best way to get rid of her. With his psychic powers he would be able to kill her with little difficulty.
Carly pondered over her options. Running wasn't a great one, she didn't think it would as easy to get out as it was to get in. However, she had been studying duelling a bit more and had researched ways to use her deck and had even gotten some knew cards to support it. Basically she'd taken Jack's advive.
"Why not?" she thought. "And hey maybe this could be a new turn for me. I can stop trying to be a reporter and start becoming a professional duellist. Maybe even marry Jack along the way and become the world's first duelling couple."
Snapping out of her fantasy she shot Sayer a look of determination and slipped her deck into her duel disk.
"Bring it on," she challenged.
"You should have tried running," he retorted smugly.
"Duel," they both shouted.
Carly LP: 4000
Sayer LP: 4000
"My turn. I summon Telekinetic Shocker (lvl4 Att1700/Def700) in attack mode. With that I'll end my turn. This will probably be the only turn you have so make it count," Sayer said confidently.
A red astronaut appeared.
"Well here goes," she thought.
When she drew however her stomach churned. It was Fortune Fairy Chee, the worst fortune she could have drawn. It symbolised her misfortune, that she was doomed. It made sense really. She'd heard about Psychic duellists and how they could inflict real damage. Akiza had been proof of that.
Deciding to brush off her fortune she decided to act.
"I summon Fortune Fairy Swee (lvl4 Att0/Def 0) in attack mode. Next I activate the Unacceptable Result spell to summon another from my hand and I choose Fortune Fairy Chee (lvl6 Att0/Def0). Now I target Swee and activate Luck Loan to summon Fortune Fairy Hu (lvl3 Att0/Def0) from my deck."
"0 attack points well that's just pathetic. It seems this duel will be over sooner than I expected," Sayer sneered.
"Oh really. I'm not as weak as you think I am because I've got this Miracle Stone. For every fortune fairy on the field each gains a 1000Att, so we're talking 3000 each," she declared as her fairies got larger. "Due to my spells effect special summoned monsters can't attack but since Swee was normal summoned she can. Battle! Fortune Fairy Swee attack Telekinetic Shocker."
Sayer's monster was destroyed in a flash of blue light.
Sayer LP: 2700
"With that I end my turn," she declared.
"You have some skill I'll give you that but it doesn't matter," Sayer told her.
"My turn. To start I activate Psi-Station. Next I summon Psychic Snail (lvl4 Att1900/Def1200) in attack mode and activate my spells effect. By paying 500 LP I can increase my monsters attack by 300 and its level by one."
Sayer LP: 2200
Psychic Snail Att2200 lvl5.
"Next I activate Emergency Teleport and summon Psychic Commander (lvl3 Att1400/Def800) from my deck."
A hideous snail creature and a being in a floating tank appeared. Seeing their attack points however Carly got the feeling that they weren't the threat.
"Now I activate Psychokinesis. By paying a 1000 LP I can destroy any card on the field and I choose Miracle Stone."
Sayer LP: 1200
Carly gulped in fear. She was practically defenceless.
"Now Psychic Commander destroy Fortune Fairy Hu."
Carly LP: 2600
The blast went through the green fairy, hitting her and pinning her against the window, which was slightly cracked.
"That attack, that felt real," she moaned.
"That my dear was the power of the Psychic duel and I'm not done," Sayer gloated. "Go Psychic Snail destroy Fortune Fairy Swee."
Carly LP: 400
Lightning came from the snail destroying the green fairy and hitting Carly and cracking the glass even more.
Carly screamed in agony. Something Sayer took pleasure in.
"This is why he wanted to duel," she realized. "It was an easier way for him to get rid of me."
"I'm not done. Next I tune level 3 Psychic Commander with level 5 Psychic Snail. Surge, my black mist of vengeance! Synchro Summon! Thought Ruler Archfiend! Finally I set three cards and end my turn," the Psychic duellist declared. "This will be your last turn so I suggest you make the most of it."
A green demon took to the field. The cards he'd set were the traps were Mirror Force, Telepathic Power and Battle Teleportation. It didn't matter what the girl did. His victory was assured.
Carly was hurt all over. She had gotten off the window and was just barely standing. She picked up her glasses and considered her next move. She couldn't run, not in the state she was in.
Suddenly she remembered the duel in the hospital. She remembered how Jack had been injured but continued to duel.
"He didn't give up when he was beaten down. So neither will I," she thought. "I'll go all the way to the end."
"My turn. I activate Luck Loan and summon Fortune Fairy Ann (lvl5 Att0/Def0) from my deck. Next I activate the spell Fortune Draw which lets me draw a card for each Fortune Fairy I control. Since I've got two I draw two," she stated.
As soon as she saw what she'd drawn she knew she could win.
"I activate another Miracle Stone giving my fairies 2000Att each. Now I activate the continuous spell United Fortune. When Miracle Stone is on the field I can target one fortune fairy and have it gain the attack of the others until the end of this turn, the others can't attack though. I target Chee and bump her up to 4000," she declared.
Sayer didn't look even remotely phased. He knew he could defend himself. Carly however decided to wipe that smug look off his face.
"I activate United Fortune's second effect, by banishing a miracle stone from either the field or the graveyard neither one of us can activate card effects for the rest of this turn. I banish the one you sent to my graveyard."
Carly grinned with satisfaction as Sayer's face contorted into one of rage and frustration. He now had nothing to protect him.
"Fortune Fairy Chee attack his monster and end this duel," Carly shouted as her fairy destroyed the demon in a flash of brown light.
Sayer LP: 0
Carly had done it. She had won. She couldn't actually believe it.
Sayer was furious. He had underestimated this girl but it didn't matter, there was no way he was letting her leave alive.
Carly was right when her fortune meant she was doomed. However, it didn't mean the duel.
She didn't notice Sayer activating a card. One known as Hinotama. One that would send her to her death.
Hi there. Well what did you think of that? Fortune draw and United Fortune are two cards I made up to help support the Fortune Fairies better. I hope you enjoyed. Please review.
