Sorry bout the long delay. Had to get the other fan fics out of the way. Ok, heres the next chapter!
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh!
The dark room… the room with the candles and strange symbols lined the walls… the room where our mysterious robed man sat, praying. One of his many followers came in to interrupt his quiet time.
"Sorry to interrupt you, Master… but we just received word that Marthis was done in…" the soldier said.
The Master's eyes shot open. He quickly turned to his follower. "WHAT?" he shouted.
"Yes sir… eye witnesses confirmed that this afternoon, Marthis was defeated by the knights of Lancaster and the bearer of the Bronze Ring!" the follower announced.
Electricity emitted from The Master's body, putting out all the candles. The emergency lights came on and lit the room up. The Master rose to his feet.
"I never did like Marthis much anyways… but then he goes and disgraces myself and the Blood Knights by getting himself killed!" he shouted.
"That's not all sir…" The follower said. "It also seems that Marthis squealed on our secret attack on Westminster. Now the Bearer of the Bronze Ring and Lancaster are on there way their to help protect it."
The Master smiled. "Meh heh heh! It all works out for us… we can get two items in one blow. Who is leading this assault?"
"General Sebeckal."
"Well then… it looks like I will have to make a personal appearance."
The Master stood up and began to walk out the room. The follower smiled. "With The Master making an appearance, Westminster won't stand a chance!"

Westminster was a very large kingdom. It was almost as big as Lancaster, but the thing that separates the two is the fact that Westminster is a kingdom in it of itself… meaning the castle walls surrounded the whole town. This was to keep invaders from attacking.
The Royal Bus of Lancaster quickly came to a stop in front of the front gate to Westminster. Two guards were standing guard in front of the castle gates quickly ran to the bus and peeked inside. The driver smiled as the guard looked inside. The guard quickly noticed Yugi in the passenger's seat.
"Prince Yugi? What brings you to our fair kingdom?" the guard asked.
Suddenly, Iami popped into view, blocking Yugi from the guard's sight. "WERE ON A ROAD TRIP!" she said. She was then grabbed and pulled back into the back.
"Westminster is in grave danger. We must speak to Regent Pegasus immediately!" Yugi said.
The guard turned to his partner. "Open the gates." He said. The guard ran to a panel box. A few moments later, the large wooden doors opened. The Royal Bus drove inside, and without wasting anytime, drove straight towards Westminster Castle. Once there, The Lancaster group were taken immediately to Pegasus.
Westminster Castle was huge. It was almost as big as Lancaster Castle, but only bigger. People worked around the clock at the castle.
Once in the throne room, Yugi and Simon addressed Pegasus, with Isaac, Jonouchi, Damian, Sakura, Sasha, T.K., and Iami standing behind them.
"Pegasus… we've come with a warning…" Yugi said.
"Say no more." Pegasus said. He pulled his long gray/white hair to the side to reveal the Bronze Eye. The eye flashed, indicating that Yugi's mind was just read
(NOTE: I'm pretty sure you all know what Pegasus looks like.)
"So that's what's happening. I know everything now… about the Bronze Items… about the Chosen One… and about the attack on Westminster." Pegasus said.
"What? How'd he know all that!" Damian said.
Isaac crossed his arms, closed his eyes, then bowed his head, as if he were a martial arts sensei. "He used his Bronze Eye to read Yugi's mind… just like the Pegasus in OUR dimension did at Duelist Kingdom!"
Damian gave Isaac an annoyed look. "You think you know everything, don't you!"
"Maybe you would too if you would have read Yugi's autobiography like I did!"
"…Ass face…"
"… Anal crusader."
Sakura slapped both Isaac and Damian in the heads. "GROW UP!"
"So… what happens now?" Jonouchi asked.
"I'm not sure… but what we do know is that we must protect Pegasus at all cost. See, Pegasus is a strong Duelist as well… so if our enemy gets him…"
"Then they'll get an Item AND a strong soul!" Sasha said.
"Hey, Everybody!" T.K. said. Everyone looked at him as he walked toward the front of the throne room. "If there really is a large army on the verge of attacking Westminster, then the people of Westminster are in serious danger! I mean, if Pegasus is the target, those guys will stop at nothing to get to him!"
"T.K. is right! The civilians are in danger!" Yugi said.
Isaac stepped forward, next to T.K. "Guys… I've got a plan… but we can't waste another second."
A random person in the throne room walked forward. "Don't be ridiculous! This is NOT a matter for a bunch of children!" he said.
"Stand down!" Pegasus shouted at the man. "HE is the Chosen One! If he has an idea, then were going to go through with it!"
"Thanks Pegasus!" Isaac said. All eyes were on Isaac. "Ok, It's obvious that whomever were up against is after Pegasus, so the plan is to hide Pegasus somewhere safe where they cant get to him. Meanwhile, the rest of us will fight of the invaders! That way, should something happen, at least Pegasus will be safe."
"Hmmm…" Damian thought.
Isaac walked towards his friends. "Sakura. Sasha. Iami. Shizuka. I want you all to evacuate the town to Lancaster."
"What?" Iami said.
"We wanna fight with you, Isaac!" Sasha said.
"Stop being sexist!" Sakura said.
"DON'T ARGUE WITH ME!" Isaac shouted. He was completely serious this time. "Please… get the people of Westminster out of here!"
The girls nodded. "Ok… sorry bro." Iami said.
Isaac walked back to Pegasus. "Pegasus… we need knights all over the town to slow down the oncoming army."
Pegasus nodded.
"And finally, the rest of us will be waiting at the front of the castle. Should that army make it this far, we'll be the last line of defense!"
"Genius plan, Master Isaac!" Simon said.
Suddenly, a scout rushed into the room. "REGENT PEGASUS! REGENT PEGASUS! THEIR HERE! THE INVADING ARMY HAS BEEN SPOTTED! AND THERES LIKE THOUSANDS OF THEM!"
Everyone gasped.
"Damn, were too late!" Damian said.
"The hell we are! Our time is now! Lets do it to it!" Isaac said. Everybody threw their fists into the air, and it was on! Everyone went there own ways.
"HEY! SHIZUKA!" Damian said. Shizuka turned around. Damian pointed up his thumb and winked at her. "Good luck!" he said.
Shizuka smiled as she turned and followed Sakura, Sasha, and Iami.
Outside of Westminster…
General Sebeckal looked at Westminster out of his binoculars. "Well now… so THIS is Westminster. The place is huge… its almost a shame that I'll have to destroy it." He turned to his large army in back of him, then drew his sword.
"ATTACK! KILL ANYONE WHO MEANS TO RESIST US, BUT LEAVE PEGASUS ALIVE!"
And with that, an army of Steel Golems charged towards Westminster. From the castle, they could be seen running towards the kingdom like a flock of rats.
Isaac, Damian, T.K., Jonouchi, and a group of Westminster soldiers stood their ground at the front of the castle. Another scout came in to make a report.
"Sir Jonouchi! We just received word from Prince Yugi and Simon that Pegasus is hidden safely in the castle." He announced.
"Good… now lets hope the soldiers outside can hold their own out there…"
"And hope that the girls can get the people of Westminster out of town." Isaac added.
Back outside, The people of Westminster immediately began to run towards the West exit. Sakura and Sasha lead everyone towards the exit.
"HURRY EVERYONE! THE ATTACKERS WILL BE HERE ANY MINUTE! YOU ALL MUST GET TO LANCASTER IMMEDIATELY!" Sasha said.
The castle doors were immediately busted down, and the Steel Golems began to flood the town.
Iami quickly ran to the front, followed by a couple of guards. She activated her Duel Disk, then inserted her Life Card inside.
"WE ARE NOT GONNA LET YOU IN HERE!" she shouted.
"GO, Hiita, the Fire Charmer! Wynn, the Wind Charmer! Eria, the Water Charmer, and Aussa, the Earth Charmer!"
All four of Iami's Charmers took form on in front of her.
"HIITA! ATTACK WITH MYSTIC FLAME!" She said.
Hiita fiercely waved her magical rod, unleashing a wave of flames at a group of Steel Golems. Their pale blue skin began to slowly turn red.
"ERIA! ATTACK WITH WATER WAVE!"
Eria did the same, creating a wave that washed over the heated golems. They began to turn a grayish color as the water combined with the heat. Iami pointed at the now slow moving golems.
"WYNN! AUSSA! ATTACK TOGETHER!"
Wynn and Aussa pointed their rods and fired their attacks, instantly wiping out the group of golems! Shizuka ran to join Iami.
"WOW! THAT WAS SO COOL, IAMI!" Shizuka said.
"Thank you! I learned that from a science project at school!" Iami said with a smile. The celebration was short lived as more and more golems flooded into the kingdom.
"Oh no! Here comes more of them!" Shizuka said in a panic.
"Don't worry! I have an idea!" Iami said. "I'll play the Ritual Magic Card, Doriado's Blessing! All I have to do is tribute Hiita, Wynn, Eria, and Aussa, to bring out… Elemental Mistress Doriado!"
Iami's four Charmers vanish, and Elemental Mistress Doriado rose from then ground. A huge smile shot across Iami's face. "OH MY GOD! I LOVE HER! KNOW WHY? BECAUSE SHE HAS THE POWERS OF ALL FOUR OF MY ELEMENTAL CHARMERS!"
"WOW!" Shizuka said with a smile.
Iami turned and pointed at the new group of Golems that charged through the gates. "DORIADO! FIRST, USE YOUR FLAME ATTACK! THEN USE YOUR WATER ATTACK! THEN FINALLY, FINISH THEM OFF WITH YOUR EARTH AND WIND COMBO!"
Doriado did just that, wiping out the new group of Golems.
Iami began jumping up and down, clapping. "I CAN BEAT THESE THINGS ALL BY MYSELF!"
Suddenly, the boarder walls began to crumble and more and more Golems began to pour into the city. Iami stopped and dropped to her knees.
"Well… it was a nice dream while it lasted…" Iami said
"What'll we do!" Shizuka said. "Your Doriado can't take care of ALL of those monsters!"
The calvary arrived in the form of random Duel Monsters. The Westminster Soldiers ran in to take on the on coming threat.
"WERE SAVED!" Iami and Shizuka said in unison.
The soldiers weren't able to hold off all the golems. Some managed to destroy a few of their monsters, leaving a majority of the soldiers dropping to their knees.
"It… It's like those things are getting stronger!" one of the soldiers said.
"That may be! But we have to keep them away from the castle at all costs!" The commander ordered.
Meanwhile, Iami tried her best to fight of some of the golems, but her Doriado couldn't targed all of them. A group of golems attacked together, destroying her Doriado. Iami screamed as the result came out of her life force!
Iami – 2800 LP
"Iami!" Shizuka shouted as she lifted her up and over her shoulders. "T-thanks, Shizuka!" Iami said quietly. Shizuka then ran to find a safe spot.
The Golems got closer and closer to the castle, leaving a pile of carnage in there path. They eventually noticed the West Exit, where Sakura and Sasha tried to herd the people of Westminster out.
Sakura turned and noticed the oncoming threat. "Oh great! We've been spotted!" she said.
Sasha turned to the people. "Keep going! We'll hold these guys off as much as possible!"
The girls ran towards the Golems and activated their Duel Disks.
"I wonder where Iami went…" Sakura thought.
"GO, HYOZANRYU!" Sakura shouted.
Sasha ran beside her. "GO, GUARDIAN ANGEL JOAN!"
The two duel monsters took form in front of Sakura and Sasha.
"ATTACK!" They both shouted in unison.
Both of their monsters jumped forward and unleashed their attacks, instantly wiping out the wave of incoming golems. The girls slapped five.
"GIRL POWER!" they both said.
Shizuka and Iami joined them a few moments later. "Is it just me, or is this WAY too easy?" Iami said.
"I was thinking the same thing… but all we have to do is stall for time, right?" Sakura said.
"Hey! All the people have been safely evacuated from Westminster!" Sasha said.
"ARE YOU THE ONES SLOWING DOWN MY ASSAULT?"
The girls quickly turned around to see a man in medieval like armor staring at them. He of course, had on the magical duel disk that Marthis and Saturos sported.
"Who are you?" Shizuka said.
"I am the all-mighty General Sebeckal! Commander of the northern armies! That's who! And who the hell do you think you are, standing in the way of MY attack?" the General said. Shizuka took a step back and covered her mouth.
"YOU'RE General Sebeckal! I've heard of you!" she said.
The girls stood firm. "If you're trying to hurt innocent people just to get power then were not going to let you get away with it!" Sakura shouted.
Back at the castle…
A huge wave of oncoming golems approached the front of Westminster Castle. These golems were different than the ones the girls fought. The were a little bigger, and much more powerful. A small group began to continuously wail away at the castle doors.
"Here they come!" Isaac said from inside the castle.
CRASH!
The doors and part of the walls were instantly crumbled! Isaac, Damian, T.K., Jonouchi, and a group of Westminster Guards stood side by side like a human barrier.
"DAMN YOU GUYS ARE UGLY!" Damian shouted.
"They look different than the ones I fought earlier today!" Jonouchi said.
"OH ITS ON, BIATCHES!" Isaac shouted. "GO, ELEMENTAL HERO AVIAN! ELEMENTAL HERO BURSTINATRIX! ELEMENTAL HERO SPARKMAN! AND ELEMENTAL HERO CLAYMAN!"
"GO BISTRO BUTCHER! GEMINI ELF! BATTLE FOOTBALLER! AND LA JINN, THE MYSTICAL GENIE OF THE LAMP!" Damian shouted.
"GO GAZELLE, THE KING OF MYTHICAL BEASTS! DUNGEON WORM! HUNTER SPIDER! AND MONSTER TAMER!" T.K. shouted
"GO FLAME SWORDSMAN! GEARFRIED, THE IRON KNIGHT! GILTIA THE DARK KNIGHT! AND ROCKET WARRIOR!"
All seventeen monsters emerged in front of the duelists. (Remember, the Gemini Elf is two monsters).
All the Westminster guards began to summon random monsters, and soon, the front of the castle was filled to the brim with Duel Monsters and Golems.
"ATTACK!" the Duelists and the soldiers all said together. It was a HUGE, epic battle going on. The Duel Monsters had the upper hand, however, each time a group of Golems were destroyed, another large group would storm the castle.
"GEEZ! THERES JUST NO END TO THESE GUYS!" Damian shouted.
"Then how bout we make our team even more powerful!" Isaac said.
"Huh? And how's that?" T.K. asked.
"BY ACTIVATING THE MAGIC CARD, UNITED WE STAND! FOR EVERY ALLY WITH THE DUELIST WITH THIS CARD, ALL MONSTERS GET A 500 ATTACK POINT POWER UP!" Isaac shouted as he played his card.
"I LOVE THAT CARD!" Damian said happily.
Faster and faster, the Golems were being destroyed. Suddenly, the wave stopped.
"WE DID IT! WE ROCKED OUT!" Jonouchi said.
"Stupid monsters." Isaac said.
"HEY LOOK!" T.K. said as he pointed outside. Apparently, the golems were trying a new tactic. The began to merge with each other, becoming bigger and stronger.
"O.K., what the hell are they doing?" Damian asked.
"It looks like… fusion!" Jonouchi said.
The Steel Golems stormed inside the castle and began decimating the Duel Monsters! One by one, a monster was being destroyed. Each soldier began dropping down to their knees. Isaac and Damian helped one up.
"Hey! Are you ok!" Isaac asked.
"Yeah… I'm… fine… but… they're so… strong now…" the soldier said.
"Isaac! We've gotta fall back!" Jonouchi said.
A Steel Golem took a swing, shattering Jonouchi's Rocket Warrior. "AAAAAAAHHHHH!" Jonouchi shouted.
T.K. turned to Isaac. "He's right, Isaac… if this keeps up…"
Monster Tamer was then destroyed.
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" T.K. screamed as he dropped to one knee and held his chest.
Battle Footballer was the next victim.
"AAAAAARRRRGGGGGHHHH!" Damian shouted as he let go of the soldier. "THAT CRAP HURTS!"
Elemental Hero Clayman was next. It was instantly shattered by a double team attack.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! MOTHER OF GOD!" Isaac shouted. "FALL BACK! EVERYBODY FALL BACK!"
The Duelists and a few of the soldiers ran up the stairs and into one of the other rooms in the castle. The remaining Duel Monsters followed them, then the door slammed. The Steel Golems began to follow, but because they gotten a little bigger and stronger, they lost speed.
Back outside…
"NOW I'LL DESTROY YOU MEDDLESOME GIRLS!" Sebeckal shouted. "GO, NECK HUNTER! HORN IMP! HITOTSU-ME GIANT!"
The monsters appeared in front of the girls, ready to attack.
Sakura stepped forward. "YOU DON'T SCARE ME!" she shouted.
"Wow… Sakura is so brave!" Iami said. She also stepped up. "ME EITHER!"
"YOU DON'T SCARE ME EITHER!" Sasha shouted.
"I SUMMON NIGHT ASSAILANT!" Sakura shouted.
"I SUMMON SHINING SORCERESS!" Sasha shouted (Note: Here's where the cards I start to create come into play.)
"I SUMMON THE HARPIE LADY SISTERS!" Iami shouted.
The five monsters emerged from the ground, then stared down Sebeckal's monsters. "You fools! You think just because you summon more monsters than me that you have the battle experience?" Sebeckal shouted.
"Hmph!" Iami said. "I PLAY AMAZON ARCHERS! This card powers down your stupid looking 'strong' monsters!"
A group of Amazon women emerged and shot a barrage of arrows at Sebeckal's monsters, weakening them each arrow. Sebeckal held his side. "ARGH! STUPID GIRL!" he shouted.
"Good one, Iami!" Sasha shouted.
"Yeah! Now lets finish this moron and get back to the castle! NIGHT ASSAILANT, ATTACK NECK HUNTER WITH YOUR SILENT SLASH!" Sakura said.
"SHINING SORCERESS! USE RAINBOW BEAM ON THE HORN IMP!" Sasha ordered.
"HARPIE LADY SISTERS! ATTACK HITOTSU-ME GIANT WITH TRIANGLE ECSTACY SPARK!" Iami shouted.
All the monsters attack, obliterating Sebeckal's monsters with ease. He fell to the floor, but a magical force began to surround him. He quickly got back up and backed away.
"Hey… shouldn't he be like… dead?" Sasha said.
"Yeah, what gives" Iami said.
"I have my Second Chance Life Card activated! Whenever I'm about to perish, this card activates and my life is restored! And since you destroyed my monsters, I'll be back! Stronger than ever! And when I do, You hoochies will be the first to go!"
And with that, Sebeckal took off running out of Westminster. Sakura, Sasha, and Iami tried to chase after him. They were fuming.!
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING A HOOCH, YOU ASSHOLE!" Sakura shouted.
"COME BACK HERE YOU PUTZ!" Sasha called after him.
"ILL KILL YOU!" Iami said.
Suddenly, a man in a long, purple robe walked through the quiet streets of Westminster, going straight to the castle.
"Hey, who's that?" Iami said.
"I remember hearing some Exodia Brown students talking about guys like that… they're Rare Hunters!" Sakura said.
"They must be trying to steal cards! We cant let him get away!" Sasha said. The girls and their monsters ran up to the man, blocking his path.
"… You're in my way. Move." The man said.
"You aren't getting past us!" Sakura said. "Who are you and what are you doing here!"
"If you value your lives, you WILL get out of my way." The man said.
The monsters emerged in front of the girls, ready to battle. "YOU are in no position to be making threats!" Sasha said.
"Go home, before we hurt you, you stupid Rare Hunter!" Iami shouted.
"You've been warned." The man said. He swiftly held his hand upwards. "RAIGEKI! LEVEL 5!"
Suddenly, out of nowhere, thick red-orange colored lightning bolts rained down and struck all the girl's monsters! They were instantly destroyed, electrocuting the girls.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" They all shouted. They then collapsed on the street, unconscience.
"Nobody crosses the Dark Lord and lives to tell the tale." The Master said as he continued his walk to the castle.
Shizuka ran by and found the girls laid out in the street. She covered her mouth and dropped to her knees.
"OH MY GOD! SAKURA! SASHA! IAMI! ARE YOU OK! WAKE UP! PLEASE! YOU HAVE TO GET UP!" she cried.
Back at the Castle…
Isaac and the others were being pushed further and further back into the castle. Every time it seems like they had the upper hand, the Steel Golem proved to be much stronger, destroying their monsters, and sending them running to different parts of the castle.
"Isaac! If this keeps up, were gonna run out of energy and die!" T.K. said.
"Don't worry! I've got another idea!" Isaac said.
"I hope it works! If this keeps up there wont be much of a castle left to defend! Let alone allies!" Damian said.
There were only 4 soldiers and Jonouchi left in the fight.
"Damn! We started with so many soldiers! Now were down to just four!" Jonouchi said, angered.
"Don't worry about us, sir! Were all willing to put our lives on the line for Westminster!" said one of the soldiers.
Suddenly, there were heavy pounds coming from off the walls. "HERE THEY COME!" T.K. shouted.
The Steel Golems busted through the walls, stronger than ever. Isaac and his friends stood tall.
"I summon, SUMMONED SKULL!" Isaac shouted.
"And I summon Red Eyes Black Dragon!" Damian shouted.
"Then I play Polymerization…"
"… To form…"
"THE BLACK SKULL DRAGON!" Isaac and Damian shouted in unison.
The Black Skull Dragon took form in front of Isaac and Damian. (ANIME SCENE!) Isaac and Damian appeared in a split screen. "ATTACK!" they both shouted. The Black Skull Dragon fired a large firey wave, wiping out a group of Golems.
"Our turn!" T.K. said. "I'll play Meteor Dragon!"
"And I'll also play Red Eyes Black Dragon!" Jonouchi shouted. "Then I'll play Polymerization… to form…"
"… METEOR BLACK DRAGON!" Jonouchi and T.K. said in unison.
The large dragon took form next to the Black Skull Dragon. "ATTACK!" Jonouchi and T.K. shouted in unison. The Meteor Black Dragon fired it's fire wave, wiping out another group of attacking Golems. But just like before, another large group of Golems stormed inside. They used their fusion technique and got stronger! The Golems formed a pyramid formation and fired their "Steel Beam", obliterating the Black Skull Dragon and the Meteor Dragon, followed by another group of Duel Monsters. Everybody cried out in pain, except for one particular soldier. The last three soldiers fell in battle. Isaac, T.K., Damian, and Jonouchi picked themselves up and ran with little strength they had to the very back of the castle.
The walk way seemed to have lead to a large armored door. Jonouchi quickly unlocked it, and the boys and the last soldier limped inside. The room was a large room with just a carpet and a pedestal that looked like it housed a Bronze Item.
"Oh man… this is harder than I thought it would be!" Isaac said.
"No one said war was a cakewalk." Damian said.
"ATTACK!"
"What the?" Jonouchi said.
The Dark Magician charged at the incoming group. "HOLY CRAP!" Isaac shouted.
"ISAAC! DARK MAGICIAN! STOP YOUR ATTACK!"
The Dark Magician stopped in his tracks. Yugi and Simon walked forward, along with Pegasus.
"Geez Yuge! Who's side are you on?" Jonouchi said.
"Sorry… we didn't know you were coming in here." Simon said.
Isaac slumped down. "I cant believe after all that work, the enemy still had us on the run!"
"Don't worry, Master Isaac! As long as that door stays locked, NO ONE will get in here!" Simon said.
"Yeah, but that also means we cant get out!" Damian said.
"Not necessarily, Damian-boy!" Pegasus said. "There's a secret door that leads to…"
The Westminster Soldier suddenly walked over to the door and unlocked it! The clicking sound echoed through the room, catching the attention of everyone inside.
"WHAT THE HELL?" Damian shouted.
"DUDE! HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?" Isaac said.
"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU UNLOCK IT FOR! LOCK THAT THING BACK! NOW!" Jonouchi shouted.
Pegasus's Bronze Eye flashed. He gasped. "HE'S NOT ONE OF MY SOLDIERS!"
"WHAT?" Yugi shouted.
Suddenly, the door was torn off it's hedges and tossed aside by the Golems. The Master walked inside the room and faced the group.
"You have served me well." The master said to his soldier.
"Thank you sir." The soldier said as he left the room.
"STUPID BASTARD!" Jonouchi shouted. He pulled his sword from it's holster and threw it as hard as he could. The world went clear through the traitor's back and through his chest. The soldier hit the floor, dead.
"Geez, Jonouchi…" T.K. said.
"Very Brutal… you killed my soldier… now I'll take your life as well." The master said. He held up his hand. "RAIGEKI!"
The same thunder bolts rained down and struck Jonouchi! He fell down, unconscience.
"JONOUCHI!" Everybody shouted. They all blocked Jonouchi's fallen body.
"YOU ASS! I WONT FORGIVE YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID TO JONOUCHI!" Isaac shouted.
"As will I!" Yugi shouted. "But how did he use Raigeki… he doesn't even have a Duel Disk!"
"Oh no… he cant be… a Summoner, can he!" Simon said.
"I am here for Pegasus." The master said. "Either hand him over or meet the same fate as your pathetic friend down there."
"Lets just see who you really are, you fiend!" Pegasus shouted. He pulled his hair to the side and the Bronze Eye flashed. "Oh no!" he gasped.
"Whats wrong, Pegasus?" Isaac asked.
"My… My Bronze Eye! It wont read his mind!" Pegasus shouted.
Everyone gasped.
"Those relics have no effect on me." The master said. "Now… this has gone on long enough… time to be rid of you! WIDESPREAD RUIN!"
With that, an explosion took place, striking everyone in the room! They all screamed, then each of them fell down unconscience, all except for Isaac and Pegasus.
"My spell didn't work on you… WHY NOT!" The Master said.
"I don't know… but your gonna wish it did when I'm through with you! I don't know what you did to my friends, but your gonna regret ever showing your face here!" Isaac declared as he threw his arm back. It was then that Isaac had revealed that he had the Bronze Ring around his neck.
"THE BRONZE RING! How does a child like you have the Bronze Ring!" The Master said. Then he remembered his conversation with Saturos and Menardi. "Of course… now it all makes sense! You ARE the Chosen One, aren't you!"
Isaac reached for his deck and drew a card. "That's what everyone keeps calling me!" he said. "Now I hope you're ready for… HEY!"
A gold aura surrounded Isaac's body, paralyzing him. "I… I CANT MOVE!" He shouted.
"I'll deal with you personally later… right now, Pegasus and I have some unfinished business!"
"Who… WHO ARE YOU!"
"Yes! Show yourself before us, you fiend!" Pegasus declared.
"Consider this your final wish!" The master said. He took the hood off from over his head. He had gray hair, dark skin, and his face was pure evil. Under his right eye was a scar that had a vertical line going down with two horizontal lines going through it. Isaac gasped at the sight of him.
"You… You're Thief King Bakura!" He shouted.
"So… my name is known even in the jerkwater parts of the universe. I'm flattered." Bakura said. "But small time trash like you will refer to me as Dark Lord Bakura! And now that you have seen my face, it'll be the last thing you ever see!"
Isaac tired with all his might to move his body, but to no use. He was couldn't move a muscle. "P-Pegasus… RUN! YOU HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!"
"No! I wont leave you here, Isaac-boy! Don't forget, I too brandish a Bronze Item! I'll deal with this fiend!"
"I doubt that." Bakura said. "But have it your way… SHADOW GAME!"
The whole room was shrouded in a dark, purplish-black aura. Poor Isaac was still trapped in his gold aura prison while Bakura and Pegasus faced each other in a Shadow Duel. The unconscience bodies of Yugi, Simon, Jonouchi, Damian, and T.K. were blocked off from the Shadow Realm.
"NOW! I SPIRIT SUMMON RELINQUISHED!" Pegasus said. A while aura emitted form his body. His face showed signs of pain as Relinquished took form behind him, appearing out of his very life force.
"Sweet! He must… be planning… on using… Re-linquished… special… abil…ty…" Isaac muttered.
"Is that all you've got, clown?" Bakura said. "I'm on a tight schedule, so I'll steal your soul quickly and get this over with. I SPIRIT SUMMON EVIL GOD DIABOUND!"
Bakura gave out a painful shout as a large, powerful dark aura emitted from his body and took form as a massive monster. Diabound was a massive monster that had the body of Obelisk the Tormentor, but instead of legs, it had the slithery body of a snake with the head of a snake at the end. It's top head looked like the Sphinx.
"OH NO! I .. remember that thing in… Yugi's… auto… biography…" Isaac muttered. "PEGASUS!"
"NOW I'LL ACTIVATE RELINQUISHED'S SPECIAL ABILITY! I'LL INHALE YOUR MONSTER, MAKING ITS STRENGHT BECOME MY OWN!" Pegasus shouted. "SUCTION IT IN!"
Relinquished began to suck up Diabound, but the large beast didn't budge. "What! It's not working!" Pegasus said.
"Weren't you listening, clown? My beast is a GOD! You're pathetic attempt at a strategy will not work on him!" Bakura laughed.
"NO!" Isaac shouted as he struggled to break free.
"NOW DIABOUND! FINISH THE JOB! CRUSH THAT WEAKLING!" Bakura shouted, pointed at Pegasus. Diabound flew towards Pegasus, grabbed Relinquished, then forcefully slammed it on the ground, destroying it without as much as an effort.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Pegasus shouted as another white aura was seen spreading from his body.
"PEGASUS! NOOO!" Isaac shouted.
The aura took form as a little ball, then flew towards Bakura, who held up a spirit card. Pegasus's soul became trapped in the card.
"Mwa ha ha ha haha! That was too easy!" He laughed. The shadows began to fade away. Pegasus's body laid lifeless on the ground. "And now, for my prize."
Bakura walked over towards Pegasus. At that moment, Isaac could move his body. "I WONT LET YOU STEAL HIS SOUL!" Isaac shouted.
"RAIGEKI!"
A thunderbolt rained down and struck Isaac, dropping him to the floor. Bakura picked up Pegasus, then threw him over his right shoulder and began to walk out the room.
"S…stop…" Isaac muttered. "You… you're the one… aren't you… you put… Saturos… and Menardi… up to… this…"
"You are a bright one. But don't think this means you're off the hook. As soon as I extract the Bronze Eye from Pegasus, You're next! I wouldn't get to attached to that Ring, Chosen One! We will meet again! Now… go to sleep! RAIGEKI!"
Another thunderbolt rained down and struck down Isaac.
"Oh man… It's so dark… am I dead or something?"
"Isaac!"
"Huh? Who's that..? It sounds so familiar…"
"It's use, son."
"Dad! Mom! Where are you? I cant see you!"
"It's ok… were fine. But you… you must not let this go on any further. You have the power to save this planet. You must stop Bakura at all cost. Don't let him raise Rashef the Dark Being!"
"But… what about you?"
"Don't worry about us… As long as you stop Bakura, nothing will happen to us! Now show 'em what happens when they mess with a Monclaire!"
"Y-Yes sir… Wait… are you two talking in unison?"
Isaac slowly opened his eyes. He was in a large bed. He instantly popped up and looked around.
"Hey! You're awake! We were worried about you!"
"Huh? Sasha!"
Sasha sat beside Isaac's bed, looking over at him.
"Where are we?" Isaac asked.
"Were back in Lancaster. After everyone came around, we all met in the throne room. You were the only one still unconscience." Sasha replied.
"And Pegasus?"
Sasha looked down, sadly. "No one could find him…"
"Dammit! That's right! I remember everything now! Where's Yugi? I have to talk to him, fast!"
"He's in the throne room… and its ironic, because he wanted to see you whenever you woke up!"
"Cool! Lets go!"
Isaac and Sasha walked through the Castle and to the Throne room. "Hey Sasha… when I was unconscience, I got a message from my parents… their ok!"
"Really?" Sasha said happily.
"Yeah! Now, my only goal is to stop Dark Lord at all costs!"
Inside the throne room, everyone was gathered around in deep conversation. "Westminster is under construction. Those monsters did some serious damage to the town AND the castle, but everyone is determined to restore the capital to the way it was!" Sakura announced.
"Well that's good to hear. We'll keep an eye on it… with Pegasus's disappearance and all, Lancaster and Westminster will have to stick together more than ever now." Yugi said.
The doors opened and Isaac and Sasha walked inside.
"HEY!" T.K. said happily. He, as well as Damian, Iami, and Sakura ran over to them.
"Isaac! You alright man? Haven't me scared crapless over you!" Damian said.
"Yep! He was crying and everything!" T.K. laughed jokingly. Damian punched him in the arm. "I NEVER cry you piece of dog crap!"
"Yeah, I'm fine! Sorry to make you all worry." Isaac said. Iami hugged him. "Just as long as your still alive!" she said.
"So what happens now?" Sakura asked.
"Come on. Lets go talk to Yugi." Isaac said. Isaac told everyone what happened while they were unconscience… about the identity of Bakura, and the disappearance of Pegasus.
"That fiend!" Yugi said.
"Its sad, really…" Teana said with a frown.
"Teana?" Honda said.
"Its because… Bakura used to be our friend… he never had a bad bone in his body… but one day, something happened to him. He began to do terrible things. It got so bad that we had to banish him from Lancaster. No one has heard from him since… until now." Teana explained.
"Whatever the case, the boy's evil and he needs to be locked up!" Damian said.
"But we don't know where to find him." Sasha said.
"Well, we know who were dealing with, so theres no since in going on some wild goose chase trying to find him." Jonouchi said.
"He's right. We weren't able to protect Westminster… but you know what? We tried. And there's NO shame in that, people!" Isaac said, trying to lighten the mood. Everyone began to smile a little. "Ok… so its his 3 Bronze Items over our 1…" Isaac said, holding up his Bronze Ring.
"Well… two, if you wanna count the hidden pieces of the Bronze Puzzle." T.K. said.
"Ok… 3 to two… If we can find the last two Bronze Items, Bakura will surely come back looking for us!" Isaac said. "I mean, sure he's strong! But together, we are stronger! Because were the good guys! He may have actual magic, But I'm sure we have a few Mirror Force and Imperial Order cards in our decks! And if not, the card shops in town will hook us up!"
"My brother's right!" Iami said. "We can do it! We just have to stick together!"
"Right!" Shizuka said with a smile.
Everyone began to cheer.
"Don't worry Shizuka! I wont let anything happen to you!" Damian said. Jonouchi gave him a dirty look.
"Ok… so we just have to find where the last two Bronze Items are." Sakura said.
"That would be the Bronze Necklace and the Bronze Rod… They are located in the hollowed land of Ishtar on the Seltzer Continent." Simon said.
"The Seltzer Continent? Then what Continent are we on?" T.K. asked.
"This is Maryah Dinn." Simon replied.
"I'll stay here in Lancaster, in case of more invaders. We should definitely beef up or defenses around Westminster as well." Yugi said.
"I'll help you too!" Teana said.
"So will I, Yugi. We should all be more than enough to defend Lancaster and Westminster." Honda said.
"I too will stay behind. I'm not as young as I used to be." Simon said. "It will be up to the rest of you to talk to the leader of Ishtar…"
"No, don't tell me… let me guess his name! Marik!" Isaac said.
"Yes… that's right, Chosen One!" Simon said.
"You know, maybe I should have read Yugi's book… who would have guess it would have come back to bite me in the ass…" Damian said, giving Isaac an irritated look.
"So how will we get there, Yuge? Last I checked, the airships were still in for production." Jonouchi said.
"You can use my father's pride and joy… The Red Rose." Yugi said.
"That's so great! I always wanted to ride that ship!" Shizuka said.
"… SHIP?" Isaac said, his skin turning pale.
"Yes… The Red Rose a huge luxury ship… the very sign of Lancaster." Simon said.
"And by ship… do you mean… boat…as in… WATER!" Isaac said.
"Well… yeah… how else would we get there? We have no mode of air travel." Simon said.
"YOU KNOW WHAT! I THINK I'LL STAY HERE AND HELP PROTECT LANCASTER AND WESTMINSTER WITH YUGI AND THE OTHERS!"
"Oh the DAMN you are!" Damian said. "Your coming with us, Mr. Fearless Leader! Especially after that speech you gave a while ago!"
"I SAID I'LL STAY!" Isaac shouted at him.
"But, you must go, Chosen One!" Simon said.
"WHAT PART OF, 'I'LL STAY' DO YOU GUYS NOT UNDERSTAND!" Isaac shouted.
"What is your problem!" Sakura said.
"I don't like water, ok! … when I was younger… I begged my parents to take me to the Recreational Center because I wanted to go in the pool… well, they finally took me, and I ignored my parent's warnings and ran and jumped into the deepest part of the pool! Thank god the lifeguard was there to save me! Ever since then, I've never wanted to go near ANYTHING that has to do with water!" Isaac explained.
Everyone in the room was speechless.
"Well… that solves the mystery of why he never wanted to go swimming with us during the summer…" Damian said to T.K.
"Don't worry, Isaac! The Red Rose is a luxury ship! It'll take us all the way to Ishtar with no problem!" Jonouchi said.
"WHY AM I JUST NOW HEARING THIS STORY! THAT'S LIKE 10 YEARS OF TORMENT DOWN THE DRAIN!" Iami shouted.
"We cannot waste a single moment!" Simon said. "You all must get to Ishtar Immediately!"
"Right! We'll start preparations right now! Come on Honda!" Jonouchi said. The two knights left the room, followed by Shizuka.
"We'll help too!" Sakura said. She left the room, along with Iami and Sasha.
T.K. and Damian both lifted Isaac and carried him off behind the others.
"NO! PUT ME DOWN YOU BASTARDS! I DON'T WANNA GO! ILL FIND ANOTHER WAY THERE! DONT PUT ME ON NO SHIP! PUT ME DOWN! YOU HEAR ME! PUT ME DOWN!"
"Our planet's savior… is afraid of water…" Yugi said.
"He was scarred as a child, dear… he'll get over his fears… just you watch."
And so, poor Isaac is forced to take a boat against his will to the Hallowed Land of Ishtar. What kind of things await our heroes on the high seas and in the new continent? Find out on the next chapter of Duel Monster Frontier!
