A couple of days passed, and Darius was now living with both Vern and Sebastian. Darius was a loner and he had no one else to depend on or live with for a better life. He was rather happy with the both of them and his new digs. Vern and Sebastian were pretty happy with having him there. Vern wasn't sure about having him there at first, but she warmed up to him, since she had respect for her brother, and trusted him. Darius stayed on the bottom floor of the building and made the best of it. All three were in their own rooms. Darius was interested in his cards and bettering his dueling. He was going over different strategies by laying his cards out.
"Awesome! This would be good to have! This card would make me unstoppable!"
Vern was in her room writing another song. She must've had at least ten other unfinished songs. She began scratching her head and thinking.
"Ugh, no. That won't work." She then erased and tried coming up with new lyrics to write down.
Sebastian was in his room laying down. He was thinking about his parents and his nightmare that he kept having.
"(What does all this mean? I wish I'd stop having these dreams.)"
Sebastian then got up from his bed, and went to Vern's room. He knocked on the door.
"Yes?" Vern called out.
"It's just me. Are you okay?"
"Yes. Why, what's up?"
"Nothing. Just checking on you."
Sebastian then left to check on Darius next. He walked down the steps and noticed him going over his cards. Darius turned around and noticed Sebastian and smiled.
"Hey, what's up?"
Sebastian sighed. "Not much. Just wishing I could get out of this place."
"This building?"
Sebastian sighed. "No, silly. Runon City."
"Oh, like leave?"
"Yes. I can't stand being here. I need to leave. We all do, but we're trapped here like rats. It's stressing, ya know?"
Darius smiled. "Yeah, kinda. I just try to make the best of it."
"You sound just like my sister. You both are always trying to find the best out of everything. My sister doesn't believe we can get out of here, and doesn't trust me. I was hoping to come talk to you and see if you knew anything."
"You know, if you're really serious, I think I know a way. It'd be really hard though!"
Sebastian lit up with excitement. "What? Tell me!"
"Are you sure you wanna know?"
"Yes! I don't care how hard it is!"
"Well, grow wings and fly outta here! Problem solved!" Darius began laughing at the look on Sebastian's face.
"Forget it." Sebastian the proceeded to head back upstairs, as he was annoyed by Darius.
"Oh, lighten up! It was a joke!" Darius shouted.
As soon as Sebastian got upstairs, he ran into Vern. She wasn't pleased at all. Sebastian could tell by the look on her face.
"What's your problem?" Sebastian asked.
"You know, I came to check on you to see what was wrong! Are you going on again about this 'getting out of Runon City' thing?"
"Yes, and?"
"Sebastian, that's impossible!"
"How do you know that's it's impossible? Have you tried?"
Vern sighed, frustrated. "Look, I understand, okay? But it's ridiculous to try. They catch everyone that try to escape."
Darius heard the argument from upstairs and ran up to the two.
"Hey, I know a way outta here. It's gonna be really hard though!" Darius said.
Vern looked at Darius. "Yeah, I overheard your little joke, kid."
"Oh, darn!" Darius said, disappointed.
"I don't care. I'm finding a way out of here. Sitting here is pointless."
"Hey, I just thought of something." Darius added.
"What is it, Darius?" Both Sebastian and Vern asked simultaneously.
"Seriously. I know a guy. Well, I don't really know him, but I've heard of him. His name's Leon. He lives a little far from here, but I know where he lives. If you wanna get out of Runon City, he'd be the person to talk to go talk to because I don't know."
"Has he ever tried?" Sebastian asked.
"Yes, once. He almost made it, or so I was told."
"We need to see him immediately!"
"Sebastian!"
"What?"
"You don't even know who this guy is or where he lives! I don't want you doing anything stupid!"
"I'm not! Just relax, okay?"
There was a brief moment of silence between the trio. The three were about to split, until they heard noises outside. The trio looked out of the windows on the floor they were in, and saw a group of people. Darius immediately ducked in fear.
"Who are these people, and what do they want?" Vern asked in concern.
"I don't know, but I'm tired of this!" Sebastian asked with anger in his voice.
"Sebastian, wait!" Vern quietly shouted. It was no use. Sebastian opened the door, and confronted the mob.
"What do you want?"
One person stood out from the whole crowd. Not only did they stand out, but they stood out as far as appearance. It was a lady. She had on a red dress, wore red heels, and had long blonde hair. Her lipstick was red, and so were her nails. Her hazel eyes would have any man drooling over her. She looked like she came from a business meeting the way she was dressed.
"Hello. My name's Missy Oswald. I've been told that you have someone here by the name of Darius. Is that true?"
"And what if it is?"
"Well, if you don't mind, I'd like to speak to him."
"About what?"
"Look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. Just get him out here. I don't have all day."
Sebastian went back in the doorway and began speaking to Darius. "Hey, Darius! Do you know this chick?"
Darius simply nodded.
"What does she want?"
Missy could hear the conversation. "What I want is the card he stole from me!"
"Card?" Vern asked. "What card?"
"Um, well uh-"
"Look, get him out here now!" Missy barked. "That twerp has to pay for what he did!"
Darius finally mustered up some courage and stood up on his feet. "I'll go out there!"
"Are you sure?"
Darius nodded. "Yeah!"
Darius went outside and faced Missy and her goons down. Vern and Sebastian had his back in case anything happened.
Missy growled. "You little twerp! How dare you steal one of my cards, and then run off? Do you know what happens to thieves, and those who betray me?"
Darius stood strong, even though he was scared. "I did it for myself! I couldn't hang with you guys anymore!"
"I don't care how you feel! You're either with me or you're not! I took care of you and this is what you do?"
Missy's voice frightened Darius. He turned back to Vern and Sebastian, who seemed to be unfazed.
"We have your back. Don't worry." Sebastian said. He then put his hand on Darius' shoulder for assurance.
"You really want the card back? Fine! Duel me for it!"
Missy gasped. "What did you just say to me? You wanna duel me? You have some nerve, kid!"
"Yes, I challenge you to a duel!" "( What am I doing? I've gotta be an idiot!)" Darius thought to himself.
Missy growled. "You're gonna regret the day you stole from me, left us and challenged me to a duel all in one! I'm gonna make sure of that!"
"Be careful. This girl sounds like she isn't messin' around!" Vern said.
"He'll be fine. Darius is a tough kid."
"I'm not a kid! But thanks. Haha!"
Missy got a duel disk from one of her squad members, and strapped it on her arm. She placed her Deck inside and activated her duel disk.
"Wish me luck." Darius said before he walked out on the street to duel.
"Good luck!" Sebastian and Vern simultaneously said.
Darius met Missy on the street and stepped back a couple of feet. Missy did the same. Darius placed his Deck in the slot on the duel disk, and powered it up.
DUEL!
Missy started the duel. "I draw! I'll start this duel off with a monster face down in defense mode, and then I'll end my turn with two face down cards!"
"Okay, here goes nothing! I draw! Awesome! I summon Jurrac Velo in attack mode!"
Jurrac Velo
LV 4/Dinosaur/FIRE/Effect
ATK:1700/DEF:1000
Missy grinned. "(That's right! Go ahead and attack me!)"
"Let's see what you're hiding! Attack her face down monster!"
Jurrac Velo charged for the face down monster and roared. The Velociraptor was ready to rip whatever monster that was face down to shreds. The monster flipped up, revealing a turquoise, purple and green insect with wings. The revealed monster was Howling Insect.
Howling Insect
LV 3/Insect/EARTH/Effect
ATK:1200/DEF:1300
Darius smirked. "Only 1300 defense points? My Jurrac Velo can beat that!"
"Oh, kid. You have no idea what you just unleashed!" Missy said, giving an uneasy feeling.
"What are you talking about?" Darius asked with concern.
The Velociraptor stomped on the insect and squashed it. The insect left behind a loud shriek, more like a calling.
"You see, by destroying my insect, you unleashed a greater power! When Howling Insect is destroyed in battle, I can summon a new Insect-Type monster with 1500 or less attack points from my Deck!"
Missy took out her Deck and then searched through it. "I summon Ultimate Insect LV 1!"
Ultimate Insect LV 1
LV 1/Insect/WIND/Effect
ATK:0/DEF:0
Darius mocked Missy. "So, that's your ultimate monster? Seems kinda weak! I can't wait to squash that monster next!"
"You'll do no such thing!" Miss was sensitive about her Insect-Type monsters.
"Um, hey, Sebastian. Why would she summon such a weak monster?"
"You'll see." Sebastian simply said. "Darius is about to have his work cut out for him."
"I'll set a card! Your go!"
"My turn! I draw! And I think it's time for a little transformation!"
"Transformation?"
"Yes, you see! LV monsters are monsters that can upgrade themselves, and summon more powerful versions of themselves if the right conditions are met! By sending my LV 1 Ultimate Insect to the grave during my Standby Phase, I can summon Ultimate Insect LV 3!"
The little bug on Missy's field glowed with a bright flash of light, and grew bigger. It turned into a much better version of its former self with new attack power.
Ultimate Insect LV 3
LV 3/Insect/WIND/Effect
ATK:1400/DEF:900
"And since my Ultimate Insect LV 3 was summon because I sent the LV 1 insect to the grave, as long it stays on the field, all of my opponent's monsters get drained of 300 attack points!" Missy explained.
Jurrac Velo roared as its attack power decreased by 300.
Jurrac Velo's ATK:1700-300=1400
"That's not all! Next, I activate Burden of the Mighty! As long as my spell card remains on the field, my opponent's monsters lose 100 attack points multiplied by their Level! The stronger your monsters are, the more attack points they lose!"
Missy's spell card image glowed, and the Jurrac Velo on Darius' field lost 400 attack points, since its Level was 4.
Jurrac Velo's ATK:1400-400=1000
"She's crippling his monsters attack power with her cards! Sooner or later, he's not gonna be able to fight!" Vern said, a little worried.
"I'll set two cards and then summon Desert Protector in defense mode!" Missy announced.
Desert Protector
LV 4/Insect/EARTH/Effect
ATK:800/DEF:1000
"My Desert Protector gains 300 defense points for every spell and trap on the field. There are six, so it gains 1800 defense points!"
The spider on Missy's field began growing as its defense reached new heights.
Desert Protector's DEF:1000+1800=2800
"(That's a lot of defense points!)" Darius thought to himself.
"Go Ultimate Insect LV 3, attack his Jurrac Velo!"
The LV 3 insect slowly made its way across the field and began feeding on Jurrac Velo's legs. The dinosaur roared and destroyed, and shattered into pieces. Darius lost 400 Life Points from the attack.
Darius' LP:3600
"Well, my Velo doesn't leave empty-handed! When he's destroyed while in attack mode, I can summon a new Jurrac monster! I summon Jurrac Protops!"
Darius already knew which Jurrac monster he wanted to summon. He searched through his Deck and summoned his new monster.
"I summon him attack mode!"
Jurrac Protops
LV 4/Dinosaur/FIRE/Effect
ATK:1700/DEF:1200
"It's no use! Summon as many monsters as you want! My LV 3 insect and my Burden of the Mighty will drain its attack points!"
Jurrac Protops' attack points decreased by 700.
Protops ATK:1700-700=1000
"But my Protops gains 100 attack points for every monster you control!" Darius said.
Protops ATK:1000+200=1200
"Darius' monsters can use all the attack points they can get against that deck!" Sebastian said on the sideline. "Darius' monsters are strong indeed, but Missy has the right cards to use them to her advantage!"
"Well, I think I've done enough. Til' next turn, twerp!"
Darius grunted. "Don't call me that! I draw! I activate the field spell Jurassic World! This spell changes everything, because now my Dinosaur-Type monsters gain 300 attack points!"
The field changed into a jungle. Both duelists' and everyone watching were surrounded by tall trees. A volcano was seen in the background and roars could be heard in the distance.
Jurrac Protops' ATK:1200+300=1500
"Now, I summon Jurrac Monoloph!"
Jurrac Monoloph
LV 3/Dinosaur/FIRE/Tuner/Effect
ATK:1500/DEF:1200+300=1800/1500
"Due to Burden of the Mighty and Ultimate Insect LV 3, your little dinosaur loses attack power! Too bad! And with another spell on the field, my Desert Protector's defense goes up more!"
Jurrac Monoloph's ATK:1800-600=1200
Desert Protector's DEF:2800+300=3100
"Yeah, yeah, I get it! Your bug is now vulnerable for me to destroy it! Attack!"
The Protops reacted to Darius command and ran across the field and used a headbutt to finish off the Ultimate Insect LV 3. Missy lost 100 Life Points.
Missy's LP:3900
Instead, the huge spider on Missy's field shattered and was destroyed, leaving Darius, Sebastian and Vern puzzled.
"Hahaha! Poor kid! You can't defeat me that easily! If an insect on my field would be destroyed, my Desert Protector can go instead!"
"Urgh!" Darius grunted. "I activate my trap Urgent Tuning!"
This trap activation caught Missy and her goons off guard.
"I was hoping I could save this card but I have no choice! I can now Synchro Summon during the Battle Phase! I tune my Level 3 Monoloph with Protops to summon Jurrac Giganoto!"
Both Jurrac Monoloph and Jurrac Protops disappeared into a constellation of seven stars. The stars burst and from a series of flames came a bigger dinosaur with more power.
Jurrac Giganoto
LV 7/Dinosaur/FIRE/Synchro/Effect
ATK:2100/DEF:1800+300=2400/2100
"And all my Jurrac monsters gain 200 attack power for each Jurrac in my Graveyard! There's three!"
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK:2400+600=3000
Missy laughed, and shook her head. "But it loses 700 because of Burden of the Mighty and 300 from my Ultimate Insect LV 3!"
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK:3000-1000=2000
"Yes, I know! But he still has more power and there's nothing to stop this attack!"
Jurrac Giganoto roared and ran towards the insect and squashed it with its foot. Missy lost 600 Life Points.
Missy's LP:3300
"Hmph. I admit, you caught me off guard kid, but so will my trap! I activate The Grave of Enkindling! Since you destroyed my monster by battle, I can summon a monster from my Graveyard in defense mode, and so can you! My choice is obvious: Ultimate Insect LV 3!"
"I choose Jurrac Velo!"
Jurrac Velo and the LV 3 insect revived from the Graveyard on their respective owner's side of the field.
"I'll end with a face down!"
"That's all? And it was just getting exciting!" Missy mocked Darius and his cards. "My turn! I draw! And since it's my Standby Phase, I can now upgrade my insect into the next stage!"
The LV 3 insect evolved into its next form from a bright flash of light. Its presence more scary and intimidating than its previous forms, and it also grew wings.
"Meet Ultimate Insect LV 5!"
Ultimate Insect LV 5
LV 5/Insect/WIND/Effect
ATK:2300/DEF:900
"My insect robs your monsters of 500 attack points!"
Jurrac Velo's ATK:1600-500=1100
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK:2100-500=1600
"Now, I summon a monster to join my Ultimate Insect LV 5! Cross-Sword Beetle!"
Cross-Sword Beetle
LV 4/Insect/WIND/Effect
ATK:1800/DEF:1200
"It's feeding time! Ultimate Insect LV 5, attack his Jurrac Giganoto!"
"Not so fast! I activate Ego Boost, increasing my monster's attack points by 1000!"
"Not so fast!" Missy mocked. "I activate my trap Underground Leech! When you activate an effect that increases your monster's attack points, Underground Leech gives my Ultimate Insect LV 5 double the attack points while your monster gains none!"
A leech came from the ground and immediately bit Jurrac Giganoto on its leg and drained the attack points it would've gained from Ego Boost.
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK:1600
Ultimate Insect LV5 ATK:2300+2000=4300
Missy grinned big. "Thanks for the boost!"
The attack of Ultimate Insect LV5 continued and it destroyed the weaker dinosaur, inflicting 2700 points of damage to Darius.
Darius' LP:900
"And as long as Cross-Sword Beetle is on the field, if I control another Insect-Type monster, I can inflict Piercing Damage!" Missy stated.
The Cross-Sword Beetle used its pincers and easily cut through the defending dinosaur, inflicting 800 points of piercing damage.
Darius' LP:100
"You're down to your last 100 Life Points and you're all out of dinosaurs!" Missy laughed.
"Give up while you still have a chance, ya little twerp!" One of Missy's goons shouted.
Darius doubted he could win. ("What if I can't win? I should just give up now!")
Darius then looked back at Sebastian and Vern with concern in his eyes. Sebastian could sense his doubt. He unfolded his arms and took a step closer to Darius.
"Dude, believe in your self! Believe in your cards! You can win!"
"But-"
"But nothing! You still have Life Points, don't you!"
Darius nodded.
"Well, then the duel isn't over!"
Missy and her goons laughed. "Such encouraging words! Too bad the twerp's already given up!"
"(I don't know how I'm gonna win this, but I'd like to see it!)" Darius thought to himself. "Okay, the duel is still on! When you destroy a Jurrac monster on my field in defense mode, I can Special Summon from my hand Jurrac Herra!"
Jurrac Herra
LV 6/Dinosaur/FIRE/Effect
ATK:2300/DEF:1500+300=2600/1800
Missy growled. She was sure she had Darius crushed. "Fine! My Ultimate Insect LV 5 and Burden of the Mighty will take away your monster's attack points!"
Jurrac Herra's ATK:2600-1100=1500
"Yeah, yeah! It's my turn! I draw!"
Darius looked at the card he drew and smirked big. "I activate Eradicating Aerosol!"
Missy gasped. "What the-?"
"This card will destroy all your insects! You're probably wondering how of all cards, how did I know to add this card. Well, before I made my move to ditch your little group, I knew that I'd be followed and tracked down! After I seen what you did to the last guy that left, I knew I'd need something to help fight off your bugs! So, I knew to add this card to my Deck! Now, your bugs go bye-bye!"
A hand with a can of spray came out of the spell card image and sprayed the bugs.
Missy reacted. "I activate the trap Regretful Return!"
The bugs began screeching as they were being sprayed and instantly shattered.
"My Regretful Return trap Special Summons a monster to my field when it's destroyed by an effect for one whole turn! I choose none other than my Ultimate Insect LV 5!"
The insect revived from the grave in defense mode.
"Oh, and the monster I summon back loses half of its attack points!"
Ultimate Insect LV 5 ATK:2300/2=1150. Jurrac Herra gained its 500 points back making its total ATK 2000.
"Jurrac Herra, finish off that bug now that its weakened!"
The dinosaur roared and destroyed the bug with a massive headbutt.
"I activate my trap Regretful Rebirth! When you destroy a monster by battle on my field, my trap summons it back and during the End Phase, it gets destroyed!"
The LV 5 insect revived from the Graveyard with its full ATK.
"Why bring back a monster if it's just gonna be destroyed? I'll end with a face down card! Your move now!"
The LV 5 insect shattered because of the downside effect of Regretful Rebirth, but it instantly returned again with half of its attack points.
"Remember, my Regretful Return works for the whole turn! You can't get rid of my precious insects that easy! It's my turn! I draw! And since it's my Standby Phase, I can transform my monster and summon its last form! I summon Ultimate Insect LV 7!"
The bug on Missy's field shined with a bright flash of light and transformed into a much bigger, intimidating version of itself.
Ultimate Insect LV 7
LV 7/Insect/WIND/Effect
ATK:2600/DEF:1200
"Your Jurrac Herra now loses 700 attack points!"
Jurrac Herra's ATK:2000-700=1300
"I activate the equip spell Insect Armor with Laser Cannon, boosting my Ultimate Insect LV 7 by 700 attack points!"
The moth's body glowed with a bright flash, and it was now equipped with armor with a large cannon on the back.
Ultimate Insect LV 7 ATK:2600+700=3300
"Finish off this loser! Attack!" Missy ordered.
The large cannon began powering up with golden energy.
"I activate my trap Iron Tail! This trap becomes an equip card and equips onto a Dinosaur-Type monster, and changes it to defense mode!"
Jurrac Herra's entire tail became a solid silver color and its switched to defense mode. Jurrac Herra used its silver tail to block the oncoming attack and stand strong with no harm done.
"My Jurrac Herra also can't be destroyed by battle once a turn!"
Missy growled. "You've been a real thorn in my side for long enough, kid! I end my turn!"
Vern sighed. "He dodged her this turn! But, what can he do now? He's out of moves!"
"No, he's not!" Sebastian reassured. "He still has a chance!"
"(Okay, deck, don't fail me now!)" "I draw! I activate the spell card Survival Tactics! If I have no cards in my hand, I can draw two cards from my deck!"
Darius draws two cards. It was a very tense moment as Darius began squeezing what life he could out of his deck.
"I activate the Evolution Pill equip spell!"
Jurrac Herra then grew in size after it swallowed a red and green pill.
"This spell card gives a Dinosaur-Type monster an extra Level and 100 extra attack points!"
Jurrac Herra's Level 6+1=7/Attack Points:1300+100-100=1300
"My Evolution Pill allows me to send a monster equipped with it to the Graveyard and summon a monster from my Graveyard that has the same Level! I summon back my Jurrac Giganoto in attack mode!"
Jurrac Giganoto revived from the grave and made a dramatic entrance. It roared, shaking the entire duel field.
"Remember, Jurrac Giganoto gains 200 for every Jurrac monster in my grave, and 300 from my field spell!"
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK:2100+800+300=3200
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK then decreased by 1400 from Ultimate Insect LV 7 and Burden of the Mighty.
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK: 3200-1400=1800
"I have one final card that's gonna win me this duel! I play Megamorph!"
Miss gasped. "The card you stole from me!"
"My monster will now gain twice its original attack power since I have less
Life Points than you!"
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK:1800+2100=3900
"Impossible! There's no way I could lose!" Missy stated. "My strategy was unbeatable!"
"Go get her, Darius!" Sebastian shouted.
"Beat her!" Vern added.
Darius smiled and nodded. "Attack! Finish off her monster!"
Jurrac Giganoto reacted to Darius' command and used its powerful tail to smack the bug in the air and destroyed it. Missy lost 600 Life Points.
Missy's LP:2700
Missy was crushed that her so called perfect strategy was ruined and she now had nothing to defend her. She growled, showing her frustration.
Darius smirked. "And without your bug, Giganoto gains 700 attack points back!"
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK:3900+700=4600
Missy was scared. There was nothing she could do against Darius now.
"What's the boss gonna do now?" One of the goons asked.
"I don't know!" Another responded.
"Silence! I got this!" Missy shouted. "I draw! I summon Desert Protector in defense mode!"
Another spider came from the ground and appeared on the field.
Desert Protector
LV 4/Insect/EARTH/Effect
ATK:800/DEF:1000
"My Desert Protector gains 300 defense points for every spell and trap on the field! There are three, so it gain 900 defense points!"
Desert Protector's DEF:1000+900=1900
"I'll just have to wait until I get something good! I end my turn!"
"I draw! Yes! I activate one of my favorite cards! I equip Jurrac Giganoto with Big Bang Shot! This raises the attack points of a monster equipped by 400!"
Jurrac Giganoto's ATK:4600+400=5000
Desert Protector's DEF:1900+300=2200
"Jurrac Giganoto, strike down her spider!"
The dinosaur roared loud, shaking the entire duel field and ran towards the underground spider with its fist clenched.
"There's more! Thanks to Big Bang Shot, when my Giganoto attacks a monster in defense mode, and it has more attack points, then you take the difference as damage to your Life Points!"
Jurrac Giganoto delivered the final blow, and struck the spider with its fist. It easily shattered, and exploded, knocking Missy off her feet. Missy lost 2800 Life Points.
Missy's LP:2700-2800=0
Darius' LP:100
Jurrac Giganoto and the duel field disappeared and the two duelists' duel disks powered down.
Missy got up from the ground, frustrated that she had lost the duel. "It doesn't matter that I lost! You're still gonna pay! Get him!"
"Hey!"
Sebastian's voice caught Missy and her squad's attention.
"Look, he beat you fair and square! The wager was the card he stole! It's not right that he stole, but you two had a deal! You lost, now leave!"
Missy was humiliated that she lost in front of her group. There was no way she could let that go, especially not after what Darius had done.
Missy eyed Darius. "A deal is a deal! But mark my words: We'll meet again! This isn't over, kid!"
Missy and her goons walked off in shame. Each of them couldn't believe how things turned out in Darius' favor. Darius went back to the two on the sidelines. They had big smiles on their faces.
"Good job!"
"I'm proud of you! You stood up for yourself and you never gave up!"
"I almost did! If not for your speech earlier, I probably would've done it."
"We have to be careful, though! That's definitely not the last time we're gonna see her!"
"Darius will just beat her again."
Darius nodded. "Sure will!"
"It's not right what you did."
Darius held his head down. "I know, but I really wanted that card."
Sebastian and Vern just smiled. Sebastian put his hand on Darius' shoulder. "Just remember this: As long as you have Life Points, it doesn't matter what the situation looks like, the duel is still on!"
