Hello everyone! It's me Haru! It's almost Valentine's Day, and my sister's birthday is the same day! I'll probably update on the fourteenth, so look forward to that my fellow yugioh readers.
Ch. 4 Obelisk Duel
It's such a nice day. Ayumu thought to himself, comfortable on his bed. I met a powerful opponent and beat the big guy yesterday. But now, I better take this time to rest.
But as he thought that, the curtains suddenly opened and poured sunlight into the room! Ayumu suddenly screamed and used his pillow to cover his eyes.
"Hey wake up Ayumu!"
He took the pillow from his eyes. Itsuki was on the floor, stretching. His odd colored hair was really wild, probably a bed head. He doesn't seem sleepy at all!
"Aw man." Ayumu muttered. "I have an early riser in my room."
Itsuki looked into the mirror and shuddered at the sight of his hair. "I should really get it cut. Maybe I should dye my hair a different color." He went to the table and grabbed a comb.
Ayumu grabbed his pillow ad placed it over his head. "Why are you waking me up so early at 6:30AM? Don't we get this day off until tomorrow?"
His roommate nodded. "Yup! But don't you wanna spend time exploring this island? It'll be awesome!"
"Nope."
"Aw!"
After getting dressed into his Slifer Red uniform, Itsuki ran outside and smelled the fresh air.
Ahh! Fresh air and a day off! What could be better than this? He wondered.
But as he looked down, he saw a few Obelisks surrounding a Ra Yellow girl. They all looked practically the same, with weird looking hair and nerdy-looking glasses (no offense to people with those glasses, I wear glasses too). The girl was about three inches taller than him with long brown hair and gray-blue eyes.
She looks exhausted. Itsuki thought. What if she's getting bullied?
"Well you have no place to run Ms. Hayley Wilson." One of them said with a perverted grin.
"Ge- get away from me you pervs!" She shrieked, and tried to get away from the perverted Obelisks. However she tripped over a small stone and fell down, with the boys trying to grab her.
"Stop right there!" A loud scream erupted from behind them.
Everyone turned around to reveal a boy with a mask on. He wore a Ra Yellow uniform with a K on the jacket and an E-Hero Electrum mask with a cape. He didn't look like a superhero though, with the scrawny muscle.
"Who are you?" Everyone asked except for Itsuki who was rushing down to save the girl.
He snickered. "I am the bane of evil, the light of justice, the rose beneath the thorns! I have many names, but my true name is K-man!" He yelled with his fist in the air.
"What a geek."
"You said it."
He fell down anime-style and said, "I beg to differ! You are the geeks who are trying to rape this poor woman! I will be sure that you don't."
Obelisk #1 and Obelisk #2 grinned a the challenge. "So you want to duel the both of us? Okay loser, you're gonna get it!"
"Hey! I wanna duel too!"
They all turned to see Itsuki huffing from his long jog. Those stairs are pretty long.
"You... jerks... you guys... duel me... too!" He cried, still huffing.
"Heh. Fine. What will a Slifer dropout boy do anyway?" Obelisk #2 mocked.
Itsuki grinned. "This little Slifer slacker can duel a lot better than you guys!" He placed his deck into his red duel disk. "And I'll prove it!"
The superhero known as K-man also smiled. "Ah! Another ally of justice has come to protect this young maiden! Together the two of us shall stop the opposing evil force of darkness! Come at us, you villainous curs!"
Everyone sweat dropped at his comment.
The small Ra Yellow girl known as Hayley blushed at the sight of two boys protecting her. Wow! Maybe one of these boys might be the knight in shining armor I'm looking for!
The four of them activated their duel disks and yelled, "Duel!"

The set-up for this match was Itsuki, Obelisk #1, K-Man, then Obelisk #2. They thought that they should have the losers go first, so they 'politely' allowed Itsuki to make the first move. Of course, K-Man made a really odd comment about them, but that should be saved for later.
"I'll go!" Itsuki said. "Draw! Alright, I'm bringing out my Ancient Gear Soldier in attack mode!" His robotic gunner appeared, ready to take down the enemy (4/1300/1300). "I'll also place a card facedown. That's all."
"That's all?" Obelisk #1 sneered. "I'll put you in your place you piece of trash! I summon Beetron-1 Beetletop in attack mode!" A robotic stag beetle appeared (4/1700/1300). "He is far more superior to your robot! I set a card as well and end my turn."
"Even the weakest of monsters can create a miracle at the darkest of times!" K-Man encouraged. "I draw and summon the Elemental Hero Clayman in defense mode!" A big golem appeared, with it's arms blocking it's body (4/800/2000). "I set a card and end my turn."
"If that's all, I wonder how you even got to Ra Yellow." Obelisk #2 said drawing a card. "Here's a card that will make you quake with fear! I'm summoning the Vorse Raider in attack mode!" A monster with green armor and a double-bladed spear appeared (4/1900/1200). "And I set a card."
Itsuki looked at the battlefield. K-Man has the highest defense, so I don't think I have to worry about him for now. However I can't take down any of their monsters with the one I have so far. Looks like I have to tribute.
"Draw!" He shouted. "I'm gonna tribute my Soldier to bring out Ancient Gear Beast!" A dog-like gear monster appeared with a vicious gaze (6/2000/2000). "Attack Vorse Raider!"
"Sorry kid but I activate my- wait a sec! My trap isn't working!" Obelisk #2 shrieked.
Itsuki grinned. "Of course not! When my Beast attacks, you can't activate spells or traps!"
Obelisk #2 watched helplessly as his monster was destroyed by the beast, ripped to shreds. It would've looked pretty gruesome, if the monster didn't explode into hundreds of tiny pixels.

"What the heck?! You idiot, you're not supposed to let a Slifer damage you, idiot!" Obelisk #1 yelled.
Obelisk #2 growled. "I'm gonna get you back two fold!" But it was Obelisk #1's turn, so his revenge would have to wait.
"Okay my turn. Draw!" Obelisk #1 drew his card. "I'm bringing out my Beetron-2 Beetleturbo!" Another beetle appeared with jagged blades coming out of it's mouth (4/1500/1800). "Next I'm gonna activate Fissure to destroy the weakest monster on your guys' field! That would be Clayman!"
K-Man blinked as his monster was taken underground by a hand! "Oh my! The cruel arms of the underworld has taken my heroic warrior! Now what shall we do?!"
"I'll tell you what I'll do! Beetletop, direct attack the idiot!" The beetle rushed at the superhero with increasing speed!
"I activate my trap card, A Hero Emerges!" His trap revealed a superhero wth it's fist in the air. "Now, you have to choose one card randomly in my hand. If it's a monster, I get to summon it."
Obelisk #1 gulped as Obelisk #2 shouted, "You better not screw up!"
"I... choose... the one on the far right!"
K-Man grinned as he revealed his monster to be... the Elemental Hero Bladedge! The golden superhero encased in metal appeared in a heroic pose (7/2600/1800)! The beetle crashed right into the hero, destroyed!

"Not bad!" Itsuki told his tag partner.
"Whatever! I'll activate my facedown card Swords of Revealing Light!" His reverse card revealed three glowing blades. "Now you guys can't attack us for three turns!"
"Yes we can!" Itsuki shouted. "I activate the quick-play spell Mystical Space Typhoon! Now that spell card of your is negated."
Obelisk #1 frowned. "I... activate Premature Burial to revive Beetletop in defense mode. I end my turn."

For a bunch of Obelisks, they really suck. Hayley thought. That boy with the strange hair is pretty tactical though. He reminds of Bastion Misawa... kind of. And that superhero is pretty brave.
"It's the fist of justice's turn! Draw!" He slash-drew his card. "I activate Pot of Greed to draw two cards. I summon the Elemental Hero Sparkman in attack mode!" A blue and yellow covered warrior appeared, lightning crackling on it.
"I will attack your Beetleturbo with Bladedge! Go! "I want to get rid of your monsters first! I must take care of the henchmen before going after the villain!" He cried. As he said that, the two armblades of his hero's cut the monster in two.

Pervy Obelisks: 1100
"Now Sparkman! Destroy his last beetle!" His monster threw some lightning at it, destroying it. Since it was in defense mode, Obelisk #1 didn't lose any life points.
"I'll place a card facedown and end my turn. Now what shall you do, people from hell?" The superhero asked.
"Guhh... I can't believe we're losing to a Slifer and a Ra!" He yelled. "Draw! Perfect! First, I'll activate Ultimate Offering. Now each turn, I can pay 500 life points to normal summon even after I did." His reverse card that everyone thought would save his life actually allowed him to summon again. "I'll activate Monster Reborn to revive my Vorse Raider!" His vicious monster appeared back for battle. "But I'll tribute my monster to bring out my Caius the Shadow Monarch!" A black armored monster appeared, preparing a powerful energy ball (6/2400/1000).
"Ha! Although you brought a powerful monster, it's still weaker than my Bladege." The superhero yelled. "The heroes always win!"
"Not today!" Obelisk #2 sneered. "You see, when my Shadow Monarch is tribute summoned, I can remove from play one monster on the field. I choose your Bladege!" K-Man gasped as his superhero was sucked into the vortex Caius's created.
"Next I summon Dark Crusader by paing 500 life points!" A skeleton knight appeared with a big black sword (4/1600/200). "By discarding my Saggi the Dark Clown (3/600/1500), my monster gains 400 attack points!" His warrior lifted up it's giant blade, and readied it's strike (4/1600/200 - 2000/200).
"First I'm gonna destroy your Beast with Caius!" The monster threw an energy ball at Ancient Gear Beast, obliterating it.

Pervy Obelisks: 600
"Next I'll destroy Sparkman with Dark Crusader." It lifted up it's enormous blade and crushed Sparkman underneath it.

"Looks like your heroes were crushed by darkness!" Obelisk #2 mocked him. "Now we have the advantage. What will you guys do now huh? Huh?!"
Whoa! That guy's freaking me out. Itsuki thought.
Meanwhile, Sakuya and Hitomi were walking around, exploring the island. They just exited the shop eating sandwiches to meet an Obelisk. Or rather, the Obelisk met them.
"Well, well, well. What do we have here? Two beautiful first-year Ra girls. Looks like we get the cream of the crop this year." He said with a grin. Although he would look attractive to the human eye, to the girls, he was another pervert.
"Rejected!" Sakuya yelled and slapped his face.
"Ohh... how lovely." He said. "Why don't we have a duel. If I win, I get to have a date with you. But if I lose... you can do whatever you want with me... heh heh heh."
Hitomi shuddered. "Well... I'll leave you two lovebirds alone."
"Hold it!"
She stopped immediately as she heard his voice yell that. "I meant, if I beat you, I get to date you!"
Sakuya got in front of Hitomi. "No way! Duel me instead!"
The Obelisk shook his head. "Nope. Sorry, but I think that girl behind you looks a lot more form-fitting."
She glared daggers at him. However, Hitomi got in front of her and said, "Don't worry Sakuya. I'm not gonna lose. I may be up against an Obelisk, but I am not afraid. Well, actually I'm terrified, but I'm gonna do my best."
Sakuya blinked, but backed away slowly. "Fine."
Hitomi activated her duel disk. "Okay. What's your name?"
"Ah. The maiden asketh my name. I am Shirosaki Daisuke, and I will be your knight in shining armor!" He drew a blade from nowhere, and held it up high. "Your prince! Your man! Your -
"What's up with the scream?"
They turned to see Ayumu walking down the hall, his hair a little more rougher than usual. "If you're gonna duel, let me watch too."
"Geez Ayumu, did you just wake up?" Sakuya asked. "You look terrible, like you didn't take a shower or brush your teeth or something."
"Hahaha. I didn't."
"Gross!"
Daisuke glared at the Ayumu. "Do you love this woman too?"
He frowned. "Love. I don't even know her. But if you wanna duel, then let's go!"
Hitomi shook her head. "I'm very sorry Ayumu, but I will not let you. I accepted this duel, so I shall duel. But I thank you for trying to protect me." She blushed a little at what she just said, causing Ayumu to scratch his head.
She turned back to Daisuke. "Okay then. Let's duel!"
Hitomi: 4000
Daisuke: 4000
Back at the Slifer residence, it was Itsuki's turn. Itsuki and K-Man both had a set card, however, Obelisk #2 had the advantage. He had his Dark Crusader and Caius the Shadow Monarch on the field, while Obelisk #1 had nothing.
"Good job man!" Obelisk #1 yelled to his tag partner. "Now let's take down the Slifer slime and the Ra idiot."
"Not if I take you down first!" Itsuki yelled. "Draw!" He drew his next card with a closed eye, then grinned as he saw his card. "I'll activate my own Monster Reborn to bring back my Ancient Gear Soldier. But I'll tribute it to bring out my own Monarch! Granmarg the Rock Monarch!" A golden golem appeared as big as Caius. It glared at it's brother (6/2400/1000).
"I'm taking down your Dark Crusader! Attack!" It unleashed it's giant fist at the knight, destroying it.
Super Hero Team: 3200
Pervy Obelisks: 200
"I end my turn."
"Whatever! It's my turn, draw!" Obelisk #1 said. "I activate Axe of Despair to increase Caius's attack power by a thousand!" The two gasped as Caius's power was raised (6/2400/1000 - 3400/1000).
"Attack his Rock Monarch!" The monster threw another giant black energy ball, with the axe inside of it!
Super Hero Team: 2200
Pervy Obelisks: 200
"Now it's my turn! Draw! I activate Graceful Charity to draw 3 cards, however I must discard 2." K-Man explained as he drew his next cards, and grinned at his new hand. He placed two cards into the graveyard.
"Now I activate Miracle Fusion! I will remove the cards I discarded due to Graceful Charity! The two cards were Avian (3/1000/1000) and Burstinitrix (3/1200/800). So by removing the two of them, I fusion summon Elemental Hero Flame Wingman!" The two superheroes combined to create a green superhero with a tail and a dragon's hand as an arm (6/2100/1200).
"Ha!" Obelisk #1 sneered. "What can a weak monster do to our Caius, huh?!"
"I'm not done!" The superhero yelled. "I activate the equip spell card, Fusion Weapon! My monster gains 1500 attack and defense points!"
"What?!" The Obelisks cried out as Flame Wingman got even stronger (6/2100/1200 - 3600/2700).
"Attack with Flame Shoot!" The hero jumped up and fired a flame blast from the dragon hand. The Shadow Monarch was obliterated as the two Obelisks screamed.

"Alright! We did it!" Itsuki shouted. "You did a gre- huh? Where did you go?" He looked around. K-Man just vanished without a trace.
He turned around to see Hayley blushing like crazy. "Wow. You guys are good!"
Itsuki gave her a thumbs-up. "That's the power of a superhero for you." And he ran off to... ?
Back at the area where Hitomi was dueling Daisuke, a few minutes has passed. The field seemed pretty even.
On Daisuke's side, he had Gaia the Dragon Champion (7/2600/2100) on his field. No set cards, though. On Hitomi's side, she had the weaker Ice Master on her field (8/2500/2000). However, Gaia had a ice counter on it.
"Well now Daisuke, you dueled well, but it's time to end this. I summon Frost Tiger to the field." A white tiger appeared, ready for battle (4/1900/1000). "Now by tributing Ice Master, I can destroy all monsters wth an ice counter. I destroy your Gaia!"
Daisuke screamed as his knight was destroyed by the ice shards Ice Master released. An he screamed even more as Frost Tiger depleted his life points to zero.
"No... I have lost... to the maiden!" He yelled in a very dramatic voice. "However I will keep fighting until I win my lover's heart! And I will go through everyone in my way! And that includes you!" He pointed to Ayumu.
"Me?!"
"Yes you! For now, farewell my love!"
And with that, he ran off, leaving a very shocked Ayumu with the two maidens comforting him.
Okay. That's it. Please review now.
