Chapter 4: The Mall
-oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-
The Mall of America was the largest mall in United States and it was one of the best ones. It had many shops, places to eat and many other wonderful buildings were near the outside of the huge mall. It had the largest indoor Amusement Park (Still named Nickeloden Universe). After the war started and ended, the huge tourist attraction was abandoned and no one wanted to ever visit it. It was boarded up and forgotton for years to come. Years after that day, people exploring the Commonwealth of Minnesota came to explore the place to find a safe place to avoid Raiders. Time after that day, the mall was now like a small city with places to sleep, eat and have fun! The mall now had places to purchase and sell items found in the Commonwealth and places that see ammo and guns as wll. They were 4 Sniper towers on the top of the mighty mall to protect it from invaders. It had a mayor now and inside many people were living. They have a jail now and the only currency accepted was their own kind of money called Mall Bucks (Exchange Shops were all over the mall to exchange any kind of currency for the Mall Bucks). The 4th floor was reserved for the best buildings and it lead to 3 housing areas that only the true rich and elite could afford. They were many places to sleep and rest in the mall, plus it was connected to a hotel as well that was used in a Residental area as well. Inside of the main entrance, Nate and Mike were looking around with awe as they enjoyed the sites of the mall.
Nate then replied, "Man, this place is impressive. Turning a mall into a living area protected by the best officers and security of the Commonwealth. Very cool."
Mike nodded and replied, "Very nice place to live I see."
Piper smiled and replied, "It trully is the best place to live."
"I see you made your way back, Wright.", a male's voice said.
Piper only sighed as the group saw a tall man wearing a grey suit and hat and he had a tie on as well and Trevor and Danny were by his sides he replied, "Who are these two?"
Trevor then replied, "These are the two guys that saved Piper and helped her get here so she can beat that raider to get a Stimpak, sir. These two are heroes."
The older man nodded and he saw them and he replied, "I'm Mayor William McDonough, Mayor and leader of New Mallville City."
Nate then replied, "I'm Nate and this is my best friend Dogmeat."
Mike then replied, "I'm Mike and I can't really remember my last name right now."
The mayor nodded and replied, "Pleasure to meet you both. Head to my office with me please and we'll discuss about you all living here."
He looked at Piper and replied, "You come too, Piper."
She sighed as they all followed the Mayor into deeper in the mall.
-ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-
Below the first floor of the mall was a hidden area that was the Mayor's office and sleeping area. McDonaugh was at his desk and Trevor and another guard named Millin was right at his sides while the three heroes were sitting across from them in chairs. Dogmeat was sitting on the ground next to Nate's chair.
The mayor then replied, "So, you two just recently woke up from a deep sleep or something and now are looking for your families?"
Nate sighed and replied, "Yes, sir. My wife was killed by this killer and my infant son Shaun was also kidnapped that day as well. I was luckly to be alive after what happened to me that horrible day."
Piper looked at him and replied, "Damn. I'm so sorry about that, Nate."
The mayor looked at Mike and replied, "What's your story, young man?"
"I just woke up and I'm looking for any kind of family I may have in the states, sir."
"I see."
He nodded and replied, "I Believe your stories. You both can have deluxe suites on the 3rd floor of the hotel and you get there from the 3rd floor of New Mallville."
Nate nodded and replied, "Thank you so much, sir."
The mayor nodded as he took two maps and two envlopes and he replied, "Each envolope has 150 Mall Bucks in it to get you both started on your journeys with us."
He looked at Trevor and he replied, "Can you escort them to their new living areas and make sure they get the keys as well."
"Yes, sir.", Trevor said with a salute as they both left with the guard and then the mayor looked at Piper and he replied, "What am I going to do with you, Piper?"
Piper looked at him with a smiled and replied, "What did I do?"
"You print up that garabage for the mall to read about and you almost tried to tell everyone I was a god damn synth! I found that unacceptable!"
"Maybe if you acted like a normal mayor, I wouldn't write this stuff!"
"You know I have the power to throw you and your sister out of here and let the outside areas take care of you!"
"Why don't you?"
"Because, the citizens of this city respect your views on stuff on the Minnesota Commonwealth, Piper. I do to, but for now on, don't push your damn luck! Get out of here."
Piper smiled as she left and the mayor sighed and replied, "What am I going to do with that girl?"
-ooooooooooooooooooooooo-
On the other side of Minneapolis, 2 scientists were lookingj at a duelist. The young one had had blue hair, glasses and wore green shorts and a shirt.
The scientist looked at the other one and replied, "Are you sure this'll work, David? This duelist has a cheating record you know."
The scientist sighed and replied, "You have to have faith in me and our group, Kira. The director makes sure that this is the best thing for us. We need to test those 3 chosen ones."
Kira sighed as she looked at the duelist and replied, "Go after Mike, Nate or Piper and duel them. if you win, activate your stun power through your glasses and bring them back to us. Understand?"
The duelist nodded and then Kira replied, "We'll meet you back in that park near Nate's old house to pick you up."
Weevil laughed and replied, "No problem at all. With the new cards you all gave me, the great Weevil Underwood will get you what you want?"
David nodded as he and Kira vanished into bright bursts of light and then Weevil looked the other way and replied, "Time to find them and beat them!"
-ooooooooooooooooooo-
That next day after a long tour of the building, the three Legendary Dragon users were enjoying breakfast in the 3rd floor North Food Court. Most of the stands were closed up, but the 3 main chefs of the place served them breakfast that had eggs, toast, coffee, bacon, sausage and french toast. It was a favorite breakfast for the mall's citizens and they enjoyed every bit of it.
Mike sighed and replied, "That was a great meal. Glad to have some good food again. Nate is a great chef too and this food was just as good."
Nate looked at Piper and replied, "The mall and hotel is probably one of the best places to live in the Minnesota Commonwealth. You and your sister are so lucky to live here, Piper."
Piper nodded as she smiled and replied, "We trully are lucky."
Suddenly, Danny ran out to them and Piper replied, "What's up, Danny?"
Danny sighed and replied, "We have some duelist that demands a duel with either of you three. He won't leave until he gets one!"
Nate sighed and replied, "I'll duel him then. I'm ready for any kind of duel. Is it a Raider?"
"No. Its a duelist from the past named Weevil Underwood!"
Mike then replied, "No...damn way. He's been dead for years now! How would this happen?"
Nate then replied, "I don't know. Let's go see what this kid..or whoever it is wants."
The 3 got up and Danny followed them from behind.
-ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-
Outside of the entrance the gang had entered, two guards were watching Weevil very closely.
Weevil smiled evily and replied, "What's the matter, don't trust little 'ole me?"
One of the guards then replied, "The real you has been dead for years! Are you some kind of ghost or something?"
"That's for me to know and you losers to find out on your own!"
The guards only sighed as the gang walked with Dogmeat and Danny following from behind and Piper then replied, "We'll, if it ain't the infamous Weevil Underwood! The same bug duelist that tried to cheat so many times to get a win! Also, the 1st duelist to be defeated in Duelist Kingdom as well!"
Weevil looked at her and replied, "That was the old ways! With the way my deck is now, I'll crush any of your decks!"
Nate stepped forward and replied, "I'll cream your bugs, kid. I accept your challenge."
Weevil nodded as the two duelists stood across from each other and their decks auto-shuffled and they both drew 5 cards.
"Time for my insect army to shine!", Weevil said with a laugh.
(Weevil LP: 8000 / Nate LP: 8000)
Nate then replied, "I'll start. I'll set a monster and that'll end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I Summon my Neo Bug!"
As he sat the card down, the alien-like bug appeared (ATK: 1,800).
"Attack his monster!"
The bug flew in and a aged Warrior wearing dented and rusted armor appeared with a rusted sword in his hands (DEF: 1,400) and was blasted into pixels as the bug flew in and rammed into him and Nate then replied, "When War Survivor is destroyed, I can take any Warrior monster from my deck and add it it to my hand."
He quickly took a card from his deck and placed at the top of his deck.
"Doesn't matter. My bugs will crush your warrior army! I'll set a card and that'll end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I summon my Wastelander Hunter."
As he sat the card down, another of Nate's Wasteland warriors appeared. He wore a green and white tattered jumpsuit that was covered in a worn-out white winter coat and he held onto two pistols that were in its holsters (ATK: 1,900).
"When he's Normal Summoned, one of your facedown spell or trap cards is returned to your hand."
Suddenly, Weevil's facedown card vanished and reappeared in his hand.
"Now, attack his Neo Bug."
He took his twin pistols and fired a burst of shots at the bug and it exploded into shards as the bullets struck it down (Weevil LP: 8000 - 7900).
"And there you go. I'll set a card and that'll end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "You started lucky. I'll set a monster and a card facedown and that'll end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I summon my Gearfried."
As he sat the card down, the iron knight appeared (ATK: 1,800).
Weevil then replied, "I hate that idiot warrior. Wheeler beat me with that stupid thing!"
"Boo hoo for you. I activate the Field Spell known as the Commonwealth."
As he slid the card into the slot and it closed up, the field spell appeared.
Piper nodded and replied, "Really cool. Since this is the Commonwealth, the field spell didn't change the field."
"Indeed. THis field spell gains me 100 attack for each monster I have."
The warriors began to glow (ATK: 1,800 - 2,000) - (ATK: 1,900 - 2,100).
"Since I Control two or more monsters, You can't use card effects on my warriors. I equip Hunter with the Sword of Piercing."
As he put his guns away, a glowing white sword appeared in his hands (ATK: 1,900 - 2,200).
"Attack his facedown monster."
The warrior went in and a Howling Insect appeared on the card (DEF: 1,300) before the warrior cleaved the bug in half with his sword. As the pieces shattered to bits (Weevil LP: 7900 - 7000), a 2nd one appeared (DEF: 1,200) before Gearfried went in and sliced the bug to pieces with his sword and then a Petit Moth appeared (DEF: 200).
Mike smiled and replied, "He can't be thinking of summoning any of those two moths. They are nearly impossible in these days to summon."
"I'll be ready for anything. I end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I equip my Moth with my Coccoon of Evolution!"
Suddenly, the gross and ugly caccoon began to wrap its self around the huge bug.
Piper then replied, "I can't believe he's going to even try this tactic out."
"I'm going to make it easier on my side to summon my big bad moth! I activate Super Cocoon of Evolution!"
The spell appeared.
"I just tribute a Insect monster equipped with a Equip card and I can summon any Insect monster I want from my deck!"
As the large Cocoon ripped open, the mighty and infamous Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth appeared with a mighty screech (ATK: 3,500).
Piper groaned and replied, "He summoned the thing. I can't believe it."
Mike then replied, "That spell he used is really powerful."
"Now, blast his Gearfried with Hurricane of Doom!"
The huge moth flapped its wings and a huge gust of wind shot out and the iron knight was blasted to pieces as the attack struck him down (Nate LP: 8000 - 6300).
"Take that, old man! I'll end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I'll switch my Hunter to defense position and then I'll set a new monster facedown and a new card facedown and that'll end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I summon my Insect Knight!"
As he sat the card down, the insect-like warrior appeared (ATK: 1,900).
"Moth, destroy his facedown monster!"
The huge moth flapepd its wings and a Big Shield Gardna appeared on the card (DEF: 2,600) before the huge gust of wind blasted the large shield and then the warrior to triangles.
"Insect Knight, attack!"
The bug warrior flew in and Nate quickly replied, "I activate Invicible Hero."
The trap appeared.
"With this trap, my warrior is safe from destruction."
The knight let out a squeal before it retreated.
"Darn you. I'll set a card and that'll end my turn now."
As Nate drew a card, Weevil activated his facedown card and Dust Tornado flipped up and the trap shot out a dust storm that blew Nate's Field Spell to little bits.
Piper then replied, "I'm starting to hate this kid even more then the mayor of the mall."
Mike sighed and replied, "Weevil has done alot of things in his career that would many anyone pissed at him."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I tribute my Hunter for my Wastelander Repairman."
As the warrior vanished into pixels of light, a Wastelander appeared. He looked a repairman wearing green shirt and a blue overalls and he had grease and oil stains all over his clothes and he held ono a oil and rusted-covered large wrench in his hands (ATK: 1,900).
"Since I used a Wastelander monster to summon him, I get two Waste Bot tokens."
Suddenly, two robots in need of repair appeared (DEF: 1,000 x2).
"Now, I equip my Repairman with United We Stand."
Suddenly, he began to glow (ATK: 1,900 - 4,300).
Weevil gulped and replied, "No, my moth."
"Now, attack his Moth."
He swung his wrench and it slammed into the huge body of the insect. The gang and other guards cheered as the huge moth collapsed to the ground and then exploded into pixels (Weevil LP: 7000 - 6200).
MIke smiled and replied, "He just took down one of the most powerful monsters in the game."
Piper nodded and replied, "This guy really knows how to duel."
-oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-
Back at the Mayor's office, he and Trevor were watching the duel from a large TV.
The mayor nodded and replied, "That was a good move."
Trevor nodded and replied, "What a powerful deck. Any Raider would be crushed by this deck of his."
"Of course they would. Let's see if he can actually beat this kid."
Trevor nodded as the Mayor began to pour himself a glass of red wine.
-ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-
Back at the duel, the gang was finishing their cheering as the Moth was wiped out.
Weevil then replied, "Just because you destroyed one of my best monster, you haven't won the duel yet."
"I realize that. The duel isn't over until your lifepoints drop to zero or you can't draw another card. I'll set a card and that'll end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I'll switch my knight's position and then I'll set a new monster facedown and 1 card facedown and that'll end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I'll summon my Wastelander Spy."
As he sat the card down, the young wastelander explorer appeared (ATK: 800) - (4,300 - 5,100).
"Attack him directly."
The young warrior went and stabbed Weevil in the leg with his switchblade (Weevil LP: 6200 - 5400).
"Repairman, attack."
He went in and struck with his wrench, smashing Insect Knight to pieces.
"Your turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I flip my facedown monster up!"
As he did so, a bunch of flying locusts appeared (ATK: 1,000).
"When Swarm of Locusts is lifted up, you lose a faceup spell or trap!"
Suddenly, the United We Stand card exploded into bits (ATK: 5,300 - 1,900).
"Now, I tribute my Swarm for my Grasschopper!"
As the locusts flew away, the large mantis that Snade used against Nate appeared (ATK: 2,350).
"Now, I activate my facedown Double Summon."
Suddenly, the huge mantis glowed.
"Attack all of his monsters!"
The huge mantis flew and slashed the two robots to pieces with its arms and then it went and slashed at the Spy and as he shattered into pixels, he slashed Repairman across the chest and he groaned and then exploded into triangles (Nate LP: 6300 - 5850) and he nodded and replied, "I don't take damage with my Spy and Waste Robo tokens."
"Whatever you say. I end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I'll set a new monster facedown and that'll end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "Grasschopper, attack!"
The huge bug flew in and a Obnoxius Celtic Guardian appeared on the card (DEF: 1,200) and the elf blocked the attack with his sword.
"Whatever you say. I end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I summon my Wastelander Kid."
As he sat the card down, a young boy wearing a green jacket and grey sweatpants appeared with a switchblade in his hands (ATK: 900).
"Since he's a tuner, I tune him with my Guardian."
He smiled as he split into 2 white stars, which turned into green rings and the rings went through Obnoxius Celtic Guardian, which turned into 4 white stars.
"I Synchro Summon...Wastelander Mercenary."
As he sat the card down, a wastelander wearing a dusty black & green coat and hat appeared with a black shotgun in his hands (ATK: 2,300).
Piper then replied, "Wow, these Wastelander cards are really cool looking."
Mike nodded and replied, "That's for sure."
"Since I used Wastelander Kid in a Synchro Summon of a Warrior monster, I can get that field spell you destroyed earlier a Wastelander monster back from my graveyard and I choose my Field Spell."
As he took the spell, opened his field slot and he slid the card into the slot and he began to glow (ATK: 2,300 - 2,400).
"When Wastelander Mercanary is Synchro Summoned, I declare a monster type and and when it attacks a monster of that type, he gains 500 attack and I choose insects. Attack his facedown monster."
He aimed his shotgun at the huge insect (ATK: 2,400 - 2,900) and fired the gun and a burst of shells shot out and blew a hole cleanly through the chest of the huge mantis. Its remains dissolved into pixels (Weevil LP: 5400 - 4850).
"Gotcha. I end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I'll set a monster and a card facedown and that'll end my turn now."
-ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-
Further away at the top of a rundown Burger King, the two scientists seen with Weevil ealier were watching the duel with a teliscope for the each of them.
Kira sighed and replied, "This is a joke, David. This kid is losing to that wastelander."
David then replied, "Of all the programs we decided, we choose him. What a choice."
"Don't be such a downer, dude. He still has lifepoints left and insect monsters can be some of the trickest monsters to use in the game."
"I guess you're right about that one, sis."
Kira only sighed as they went back to watching the duel.
-oooooooooooooooooo-
Back at the duel, it was Nate's turn.
Nate drew a card and then he sat a monster facedown and then he pointed and then Weevil laughed and replied, "No way! I activate A Fient Plan!"
The trap appeared.
"I'll set a card and that'll end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I flip my facedown monster up!"
As he did so, a bunch of scarabs appeared (ATK: 1,000).
"Now when Swarm of Scarabs is flipped up, you lose a monster!"
The ugly bugs flew in and covered Mercenary with them and then the warrior groaned and then exploded into pixels as the bugs returned.
"Now, I tribute my bugs for my Saber Beetle!"
As the bugs flew away, the huge horned beetle appeared (ATK: 2,400).
"Attack his facedown monster!"
The huge beetle flew in and a Axe Raider appeared on the card (DEF: 1,150) and was blasted into triangles as the huge beetle struck it down with its horns (Nate LP: 5850 - 4600) and then he replied, "I activate Arrival of the Wastelander."
The trap appeared.
"When a Warrior monster I control is destroyed, I can add a Wastelander monster with the same level as the desteroyed monster from my deck to my hand."
He took a monster from his deck and placed it in his hand.
"Whatever you say, old man. I end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and he sat a card and Wastelander Soldier appeared (ATK: 1,800) and then the huge bug began to glow (ATK: 2,400 - 1,200).
"Destroy it."
He aimed his rifle and fired a few rounds and they shot out and struck the side of the huge bug and it groaned before it exploded into shards (Weevil LP: 4850 - 4250).
"There you go. I end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I activate Treasured Cards from Heaven!"
Both drew until both had 6 cards and then he replied, "I summon my Pinch Hopper!"
As he sat the card down, a large green grasshopper appeared (ATK: 1,000).
"Next, Multiplaction of Ants!"
As it vanished into pixels of light, two large green ants appeared on her side of the field (DEF: 1,200 x2).
"With its effect I Special Summon my Insect Queen!"
As he sat the card down, the infamous Insect Queen appeared with a growl (ATK: 2,200 - 2,600).
Piper groaned and replied, "The true monster of Weevil."
Mike nodded and replied, "It sure is."
"I tribute a monster."
The Queen saw the ant and as she devoured it (making everyone have a disgusted look on their face, for everyone except Nate), she let out a snarl (ATK: 2,600 - 2,400).
"Now, attack!"
It opened its mouth and a burst of acid shot out and struck the Soldier groaned as the acid burnt and began to melt its skin and he shattered to bits before anyone else was to be seen (Nate LP: 4600 - 4000) and then a large egg came out of its behind (ATK: 100) - (ATK: 2,400 - 2,600).
"There you go. I'll set a card and equip my Queen with Raregold Armor."
Suddenly, the queen shined with gold.
"Now you can only attack my queen."
Piper nodded and replied, "I really hate to say it, but that was a good move on his part. Those eggs have to be summoned in attack position and with that card equipped to that giant eyesore, the eggs are safe."
"Your turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I'll set a monster and a card facedown and that'll end my turn."
As Weevil drew a card, Nate activated one of his facedown cards. As the Scapegoat card activated, 4 small sheep appeared (DEF: 0 x4).
"I knew you'd try a stunt like that. I activate DNA Surgery!"
The trap appeared.
"I choose Insects."
Suddenly, the changes began. The tokens eyes turned bug-like and they each grew tiny wings (ATK: 2,600 - 3,400).
"See, I don't to use that stupid Seal of Orichalcos or even cheat to beat you! I tribute my egg for my Armored Centipede!"
As the egg vanished, a large armored centipese appeared (ATK: 1,600).
"Lets do it. Centipede, go for one of the tokens!"
The centipede went in and headbutted the blue token, blowing it to shards (ATK: 1,600 - 2,100) - (3,400 - 3,200).
"I'll tribute my last ant to allow itt to attack your facedown monster!"
As she devoured the ant token (ATK: 3,200 - 3,000), it launched its acid attack and it shot out and a Hero Kid appeared on the card (DEF: 600) and the acid attack dissolved the young warrior and then another egg appeared (ATK: 3,000 - 3,200).
"You'll never beat me! Ie nd my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I activate Banner of Courage."
The large banner appeared.
"Now, I'll banish it and your Surgery card to Special Summon my Spell Strider."
As the two cards dissovled into particles of light, the older Spell Striker appeared (ATK: 1,800) and the all of the 3 tokens went back to looking like sheep (ATK: 3,200 - 2,600).
"Now, I summon my Warrior Dai Grepher."
As he sat the card down, the mighty warrior appeared (ATK: 1,700).
"Now, I overlay them both."
The two warriors glowed as they both turned into white orbs and a portal opened up, which the flew into.
"I use these monsters to build the Overlay Network and Xyz Summon! Appear before me now..Zubaba General."
As he sat the card down, a mighty warrior with a HUGE and powerful sword appeared (ATK: 2,000).
"Now, I'll remove a Xyz Material monster to equip it with a Warrior monster from my hand."
As he removed Strider's card, Wastelander Traveler's card appeared and flew into the sword (ATK: 2,000 - 3,200).
"Now, attack her Queen."
The mighty warrior went in and brought his mighty sword down, cutting Insect Queen in twain. The people watching cheered as the remains shattered to little bits (Weevil LP: 4250 - 3650).
"Your Queen is no more. I end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and then he sat a card and switched the position of his Centipede and it curled up (DEF: 1,600) and then with a sigh, he pointed to Nate and he drew a card and replied, "I summon my Zubaba Buster."
As he sat the card down, a warrior with a spiked ball chain for a weapon appeared (ATK: 1,800).
"General, attack his Centipede."
He went and brought his sword, cutting Armored Centipede cleanly in two with his sword. The pieces dissolved into pixels.
"Attack that token."
he swung his spiked ball and it shot out and smashed the egg to bits.
"I'll set a card and its Your turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I activate my other Mystical Space Typhoon!"
The storm began and it shot out and Wastelander Traveler card flew out of the sword and faded away (ATK: 3,200 - 2,000).
"Now, I flip my facedown monster."
As he did so, a large silver-colroed dragonfly with 4 beautiful wings appeared (ATK: 1,000).
"Now since it counts as two tributes, I'll tribute it for my Metal Armored Bug!"
As the dragonfly flew away, a large centipede covered in armor appeared (ATK: 2,800).
"Now, I play Forbidden Substance on it!"
Suddenly, a large needle and the huge bug let out a snarl as it stabbed into it.
"Now my monster can attack twice! Attack his monsters!"
The huge insect went and crushed Zubaba General and Zubaba Buster to little pieces with its body (Nate LP: 4000 - 2200).
"Take that! I end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I'll set a card and that'll end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I summon my Insect Knight!"
As he sat the card down, another of the mantis knights appeared (ATK: 1,900).
"Attack!"
The larger bug went in and crushed the orange token and then Insect Knight flew in and cut the red Scapegoat token in twain with it1s sword. The two pieces shattered to little bits.
"I end my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I play Limit Reverse."
Suddenly, Hero Kid appeared (ATK: 300).
"I chain it with Inferno Reckless Summon."
Two more Hero Kids appeared (ATK: 300 x2) and then a 2nd Heavy Armored Bug appeared on Weevil's side (ATK: 2,800).
"I tribute my Hero Kids for my Gilford The Lightning."
As the 3 kids made poses and then vanished, the mighty Gilford appeared (ATK: 2,800).
Mike nodded and replied, "Great card, Nate."
Piper nodded and replied, "It sure is."
"Now, your monsters are destroyed."
He raised his sword as a burst of electricity shot out and blasted all of Weevils Insects into fragments.
"Attack him directly."
He rushed in and slashed Weevil with it (Weevil LP: 3650 - 1850).
"There you go, Weevil. I end my turn now."
Weevil drew a card and replied, "I banish 2 Insect monsters for my Doom Dozer!"
As he banished both Heavy Armored Bugs, the huge red centipede appeared (ATK: 2,800).
"I now summon my Mantisoldier!"
As he sat the card down, a Insect Knight covered in white & silver armor appeared and it had a sword and a shield appeared (ATK: 1,500 - 1,800) - (ATK: 2,800 - 3,100).
"Lets do it. Mantiswarrior, attack!"
The insect warrior flew in and cut the final scapegoat token apart.
The huge bug rushed and headbutted Gilford and he groaned before he exploded into globules of light (Nate LP: 2200 - 1900) and Nate quickly discarded the top card of his deck and he took the card and placed on his duel disk. The warrior wore a green army outfit with a green helmet to match and he held onto a slighty rusted machete for a weapon (ATK: 1,700) and then Nate replied, "If Wastelander Field Soldier is discarded from my hand or deck by a card effect, He's Special Summoned to the field and since he was discarded from the deck, I get back 800 lifepoints."
he glowed (Nate LP: 1900 - 2700).
"Whatever. I End my turn now."
Nate drew a card and replied, "I summon my Blue Flame Swordsman."
As he sat the card down, the blue-flamed warrior appeared (ATK: 1,800).
"Now, I Play the Claw of Hermos."
The mighty dragon appeared with a roar.
"Hermos, I merge you with Blue Flame Swordsman to create the Sword of Blue Flames."
As the two merged together, a large sword covered in blue flames appeared and Field Soldier grabbed onto it (ATK: 1,700 - 2,100).
"While equipped with this mighty sword, I can pay any amount of lifepoints up to 2000 to raise the equipped warriors attack by the same amount and I'm going with 2000."
Suddenly, his sword glowed (ATK: 2,100 - 4,100) as Nate did (Nate LP: 2700 - 700).
Weevil groaned and replied, "I can't lose again!"
"You just did. Attack his Mantiswarrior."
He swung his sword and a huge burst of blue flames shot out and the insect let out a screech as the fiery wave burned it to ashes and the rest of the flames struck Weevil down (Weevil LP: 1850 - 0).
Nate then replied, "That's how we win a duel."
As the flames died down, what was left of Weevil was a duel disk with the deck in it..and right next to it was a charred pile of metal parts and Mike looked puzzled and replied, "What the hell is this?"
Piper groaned and replied, "Its the remains of a Synth."
"A Synth?", Nate and Mike asked at the same time.
She sighed and replied, "I'll explain more later. Let's head on in."
They nodded as Mike grabbed the duel disk and deck and then he followed Piper, Nate and Dogmeat into the building.
