Hey guys and gals. You know, i have played all three games of world championship prior to this fanfictio. I am playing them again now to add a sense of realism to my story. And, i gotta say, these are the most boring two duels in the whole series. however, i got it done and next chapter is the first duel for the twns from the prologue, which is harder than it looks due to the fact im trying to use a deck available in Stardust Accelerator but is not used in the anime (manga is different continuinity altogether) which means no AOJ (Diablo), no Flamvell (Bob from 5Ds academy has Flamvell Guard), no Batteryman (Dexter, Batteryman AA), no Fabled (not enough support, requires Dark World for consistency in 2009) anyway enough of me complaining, here is the chapter
"Hey Rally, who's the hot chick?"
"Well it's nice to meet you too" observed the new face he was of a large stature in grey jeans, a dark green short-sleeved shirt and what looked to be a bomber jacket
"Tank and Blitz! Good timing, this is Yana Fuji! We just met." Rally said excitedly
The new face looked sceptical "did Nervin let her in?"
Rally rolled his eyes "of course!"
"That's OK, then." A voice spoke from behind them "I'm Blitz. Good to meet you"
"Likewise" Yana replied with a smile this new face was a similar build to Rally, though he was taller, he wore a dark green jacket with a white shirt and brown baggy trousers 'this one's kind of cute' she quietly thought to herself
The larger one smiled as well "I'm Tank."
Yana turned back towards him 'that name seems appropriate' she mused "pleasure to meet you as well" 'still, seems friendly enough'
After the introductions were made Rally mentioned that Yana was a duellist, Tank and Nervin looked excited
"Let's Duel!" They both declared at the same time. They then turned to each other and glared. Eventually Blitz relented
"Fine, but I am after Tank. That is a promise!"
Rally shook his head at his friend's antics then turned to Yana "Since that is settled I will go ahead and watch. Good luck Yana" at this Rally retreated to the side-lines with Blitz before she could protest
'Don't I get a say in this' the amnesiac thought as she activated her duel disk 'well, if it gets their trust' "you ready to get beat Tank" she boasted
Tank smirked as he activated his own duel disk "Let's do this!"
DUEL!
Tank: 8000
Yana: 8000
"I'll go first" Tank declared as he drew a card "first I play Ookazi which allows me to inflict 800 points of damage to your life points" flames shot from Tanks duel disk towards Yana, who instinctively raised her arms instinctively
Tank: 8000
Yana: 7200
"Next I play Gold Sarcophagus, I can remove from play one card from my deck and in two turns I can add it to my hand, and I chose Giant Trunade" he took a card depicting a tornado with a face and placed it in his left pocket "I then set a monster and end my turn"
'Man, that was a cheap shot' Yana thought as she drew a card 'well, cheap or not, I need to counter-attack before he tries it again' "I summon Bountiful Artemis in attack mode" [Fairy/4/1600/1700] "and she attacks your set monster" the Mecha Maiden fired its laser at the face-down' and revealed Winged Kuriboh [Fairy/1/300/200] -a brown ball of fur with angel wings- which was destroyed and sent to the graveyard
'Shouldn't Winged Kuriboh's effect had activated' Yana looked puzzled for a moment then shook her head 'oh right, I only have the one monster on the field, focus Yana'
"I'll play two cards face down" Yana placed the two cards and stared across the field at Tank "your move"
"Fine, I draw" Tank drew his card
Gold Sarcophagus: two
"I activate Drastic Drop Off, forcing you to discard the card you just drew"
"You serious?" Tank stared in disbelief as he was forced to discard his Time Wizard
" Also, thanks to my Bountiful Artemis I draw a card" Yana drew her card and smiled 'I'll use this next turn'
"Damn, I set a monster face-down and end my turn" Tank looked confidant despite his setback a moment ago
"My turn" Yana drew a card "I summon the Gellenduo in attack position" [Fairy/4/1700/0] "now, Gellenduo attack his face down" the two sliced through and revealed a psychotic-looking clown with a lower body consisting of a circular saw, a drill, a pincer and a Chainsaw
"The card you attacked was Trap Master" [Warrior/500/1100] Tank declared "its effect allows me to select and destroy one trap card on the field"
" How do you know I have a trap card?" Yana sweat-dropped 'how does he know I have a trap card?'
"When the card I choose is set I can flip It face-up and see if it's a trap card, if it is It's destroyed" Yana's two face-down's appeared in front of the clown "Trap Master destroy the card on the right" the monster's card picked up the card and revealed the card Dark Bribe, the circular saw then activated and sliced the card In half
'Damn, I knew that card's effect why did I ask, get your head in the game Fuji' Yana thought angrily "your monster is still destroyed" the halo's tore the monster's body splitting organic from metal before it de-materialized "now, Artemis, direct attack" the monster fired its laser straight at Tank and striking him in the chest
Tank: 6400
Yana: 7200
"That's enough for this round" she stated as she ended her turn
"My turn, draw"
Gold Sarcophagus: one
A confidant smile crept onto Tank's face "I play Tribute to The Doomed, by discarding a card I can destroy your Gellenduo" a mummy in brown wrappings appeared and leaped at the twin fairies who had terror written across their faces, just as they were about to be grabbed a light blue figure with silver hair grabbed the mummy and held it in place
"Sorry to disappoint but I chain Magic Drain, which negates and destroys your spell card, unless you discard another spell card to negate it"
Tank smile turned to a frown as the blue figure started to glow and disappeared with the mummy, the Gellenduo did a flip of jubilation "you cannot be serious"
"It doesn't stop there, since one of my trap cards negate a spell, trap or effect I can special summon Van'Dalgyon the Dark Dragon Lord from my hand" [Dragon/8/2800/2500] the dragon eclipsed the field Tank had a look of dismay, on the Side-lines Yana saw the awe in Rally's face and fear in Blitz's "you have GOT to be kidding me" Tank shouted
"That's not all, since the counter trap card negated a spell card I can inflict 1500 points of damage to your life points, Magic Pulse" a ball of lightning appeared between the Dragon claws which it then fired into Tank. Bringing him to his knees
Tank: 4900
Yana: 7200
Tank got back up slowly and stared at Yana with a look of resignation on his face "I set a monster and end my turn"
"My turn, draw" Yana looked at the card and smiled "game over, I tribute my Gellenduo to summon Splendid Venus " the two Fairies started to glow, they lined up in a row and turned pure white with their Halo's at either end, the halo's travelled the row and the four-winged angel's white silhouette appeared, the halos then travelled to her staff's tip where they formed the ornament on her staff at which the silhouette shatterd revealing the monster in a gust of wind.
"But that card requires two tributes!" Tank exclaimed
"That it does" Yana conceded "however Gellenduo, when used as a tribute in the summon of Light Fairy-Type monster, counts as two tributes" Yana pointed at the face-down monster "Artemis destroy his set monster" the beam tore through the monster which was revealed to be Muka Muka [Rock/2/600/300] then Yana did an exaggerated pose at Tank "now, Splendid Venus and Van'Dalgyon finish this duel , Dark Dragon Gale" Venus' wings started beating and created a typhoon in the Center of the field, Van'Dalgyon then shot a fireball at the base of the tornado creating a fire-storm, Venus then flapped its wings and launched the storm at Tank who raised his arms to his face
Tank: 0
Yana: 7200
Yana deactivated her duel disk and walked over to Tank who looked exhausted
"Not bad!" Tank managed to say after he recovered
'Not bad, I just beat you with only 800 life points and you say not bad?' Yana was tired and irritated but she did not show it "thanks, now it's Blitz's turn, so I suggest you move to the side"
A look of confusion flashed across his face before he realized what she meant "oh, right. Sorry!"
Blitz walked forward and activated his duel disk, Yana also briefly noticed another figure talking to Rally but she dismissed the person and turned her attention back to Blitz "you may have beat Tank" he began as he drew his starting hand "but there is no way I am losing"
Yana grinned and activated her duel disk "we'll see about that" she responded as she drew her hand as well
DUEL!
Blitz: 8000
Yana: 8000
"My turn" Yana drew her card and a wave of exhaustion washed over her 'all this duelling has really taken it out of me, I need to finish this soon or I am not going to finish this one' "I play Bountiful Artemis in attack mode" [Fairy/4/1600/1700] "next ill place two cards face down and end my turn"
"My turn" Blitz drew his card "I set a monster, place one card face-down and end my turn" he wore a look of confidence that was noticed by Yana, she also noticed rally and tank discussing something with a mysterious person but she could not properly focus on them and went back to the duel
'What are you planning' she pondered before shaking her head and drawing a card "Draw! I place one monster face-down and order my Bountiful Artemis to attack your face-down!" Artemis fired her beam at the face-down and revealed Destiny Hero - Defender [Warrior/4/100/2700] a stone dwarf with large shoulders and its head in its torso appeared, the blast ricocheted of the monster and fired into Yana
Yana: 6900
Blitz: 8000
"You may have beaten Tank "the satellite declared proudly "but I am a much bigger challenge"
' That could be a problem, I do not have many monsters to defeat that, I will just have to use its ability to my advantage' another wave of exhaustion washed over her 'and soon!' "I end my turn"
"My turn" Blitz drew a card and revealed a card depicting a scroll with a blue dragon on it "I play Ancient Rules, allowing me to special summon a level five or higher monster from my hand, and I choose Millennium Shield [Warrior/5/0/3000] a giant red shield with a gold outline and an eye depicted on the front appeared
' This just got a LOT harder' Yana pondered, trying to stifle a yawn. Blitz looked really sure of himself "since Millennium shield doesn't count as my normal summon I set a monster face down and end my turn, "let's see you get past this"
"I can and I will" Yana declared as she drew a card "first, because of your Destiny Hero – Defender I get to draw another card" she looked at her cards and smiled 'perfect'
"I use the effect of my face down Gellenduo to act as two tributes, I tribute them to summon Splendid Venus" [Fairy/8/2800/2400] a vortex of wind appeared on the field and from it the Four-winged angel appeared. On the side of the field Yana could see Rally shift uncomfortably on the field "hey, Rally! Your girlfriends back on" even with her vision impaired he could see Rally face turn a deep stage of crimson, she laughed then turned attention back to the duel "thanks to Splendid Venus all non-Fairy monsters on both sides of the field lose 500 attack and Defence. Alluring gaze!" Venus's eyes started to glow red and she batted her eyelashes at the opponents' monsters which faltered from their poses
[Warrior/5/0/3000-2500]
[Warrior/4/100-0/2700-2200]
"Now Splendid Venus, destroy Millennium Shield! Lustful Gale" a hurricane beat from Venus's Wings ripping into the shield. It tried to hold on but was ultimately torn apart by the fierce winds.
" Next Bountiful Artemis attacks your face-down" the laser hit the face-down and revealed Giant Soldier of Stone [Rock/1300/2000] a stone monster similar to Destiny Hero - Defender but was taller and wielded dual short swords "normally because its defence is lower than Artemis' attack I would lose life points, however the effect of Splendid Venus means its defence is 500 points lower [Rock/3/1300-800/2000-1500] the monster tried to defend itself but the gaze of the four-winged angel was too much for it to take and was promptly cut In half
"I place one card face-down and end my turn" 'this is taking too long, I am to pass out if this continues'
"My turn" Blitz drew his card "I play Share the Pain, by releasing my Destiny Hero – Defender, you must tribute one of your monsters" a cloaked figure appeared behind the stone dwarf with a giant war hammer and slammed it into him crushing it. A second figure with a curved dagger materialized behind Yana's monsters.
"I chain Dark Bribe, negating your card's effect but allowing you to draw a card "a second figure appeared behind the assassin and stabbed him in the back with a Tanto, he then pointed at Blitz's deck and he drew a card. After which the figure vanished
"If that will not work I'll activate sword and shield" a card depicting a warrior with a red and blue orbs with a red and blue arrow appeared " when this card is activated the attack and defence of all monsters on the field are switched"
' Whatever he is planning I cannot let it come to pass!' "I chain Solemn Judgment, by paying half my life points, your card's effect is negated" a bearded man In a white robe appeared and stood in front of her monsters, a beam of light emerged and the card shattered on the field
Blitz: 8000
Yana: 3450
As her life points decreased the area under her arm started to glow a faint blue, 'what's going on!' she panicked as another wave of exhaustion washed over her 'this needs to end NOW!' "also because of my Bountiful Artemis, I draw a card" as she drew the card a voice echoed through her mind 'YOU SHOW POTENTIAL!' Yana jumped and looked around quickly, the small group on the side of the field did not seem to notice anything, however, the strange new person that turned up earlier seemed to be clutching their arm in discomfort.
Blitz however, did not seem to have noticed any of this "I set a monster and end my turn, just wait I will beat you yet!"
' Frankly kid, I got bigger worries' 'INDEED YOU DO! Yana looked around again, this time more prepared for it 'Who are you?' the voice stayed silent she sighed and reluctantly returned to the duel "My turn!, I summon Hecatrice in attack position [Fairy/4/1500/1100] the golden half-angel appeared on the field at this her arm started glowing slightly brighter and a burning sensation started rising up her arm, seemingly taking away her exhaustion.
'All right, what the hell is going on?' Yana thought the panic starting to return 'FINISH THE DUEL!' the voice demanded'what have you done to me!' 'FINISH THE DUEL AND IT WILL STOP!'
"Bountiful Artemis, attack his face-down" the laser hit the monster revealing Morphing Jar [Rock/2/700-200/600-100] an earthen jar with a one-eyed face. As it was split in half it started to glow
"The effect of Morphing jar activates meaning we discard our hands and draw five cards from our decks" Blitz drew his hand and looked more confident than he did before. "Hecatrice attack directly" the golden idol shot forward and impacted with Blitz on his chest.
Blitz: 6500
Yana: 3450
"Artemis gets her turn too, Lustfull Gale" the Angel shot a torrent of wind at Blitz who took a step backwards from the wall of wind
Blitz: 3700
Yana: 3450
"Next I place two cards face down and end my turn" her arm was glowing brighter still and the feeling of warmth was starting to turn into pain 'why are you doing this!' 'I AM SEEING IF YOU ARE WORTHY!' 'Worthy of what!' silence 'Fine then, you want worthiness, I'll give it to you!' she looked at her cards 'should I go for the win? Or should I show him my true Decks power'
"Are you going to take your turn or not?" Blitz snapped, looking annoyed with two face-down's and a set monster
"Sorry! I draw!" She looked at her hand 'let's finish this!' "I play Harvest Angel of Wisdom" [Fairy/4/1800/1000] the horn-weighing angel took her place alongside the other monsters "now it's time to finish this, Artemis, Lust full Gale!" The winds tore through the monster, which was revealed to be Acrobat Monkey [Machine/3/1000/1800] a mechanized primate with a whip for a tail
"Now, Artemis!, Hecatrice!, Harvest! Finish this duel, Angel's Wrath!" The three monsters hit Blitz with everything they had; Artemis's laser, Harvest's horn and Hecatrices charge and when the dust settled Blitz was on his knees, head bowed in defeat
Blitz: 0
Yana: 3450
Yana deactivated her duel disk and removed it from her arm, underneath a glowing blue mark on her arm in the shape of a medieval knight's helmet glowing a royal blue.
"What the hell is that Blitz shouted from across the field, confusion and terror clearly present on his face. 'YOU HAVE SHOWN YOUR WORTH!' glow spread across her own body, the heat feeling like it would burn her alive 'my worth for what!'she yelled in her mind, struggling to remain conscious. Around her the surroundings took on a blue hue and the subways inhabitants looked over in sheer terror, uncertain of what to do, except for the strange new face who was on his knees clutching his arm in pain.
'A WAR IS COMING!' the ground around her started glowing too, but by this point Yana could see nothing, her scleras had turned the same colour as the rest of her. And the pain consumed her. 'YOU WILL BE MY CHAMPION!' the ground around her burst into flames encapsulating Yana in a wall of Blue flames. 'YOU WILL BE MY HERO OF THIS TIME!'
The pain was too much for her and, as she lost consciousness, the voice spoke one last time 'YOU. WILL. BE. THE. INSTRUMENT. OF MY VENGANCE!'
