Shikiira: Hey everybody! We are back again and it's now time for Duelist Kingdom to really start!

Joey: Yeah, and I'm ready for some major butt kickin'!

Tristan: Ya better be,cause everyone is sure to kick yours.

Joey: Shut up! I'm gonna beat them all!

Yugi: Lets calm down guys.

Shikiira: Yeah,besides ,me ,Yugi,and Joey are here to do more than just win.

Joey: Exactly,saving Gramps and my sister!

Shikiira: Yup! Oh! Almost forgot. Yami!

Yami: Remember guys,Shikiira doesn't own Yugioh at all.

Shikiira: And with that being said...

All in unison: LETS ROLL!

Chapter 5

Let the Battle Begin! A Cheater with a Sting! Part 1

"Hey,"says Joey."this Duelist Kingdom looks like a pretty big place,Yugi. Finding your Granpa's not gonna be easy." We could see the island of Duelist Kingdom steadily growing closer. That's is where the tournament will be held. It's also where Pegasus resides,holding Mr Muto captive,Yugi's grandfather. Pegasus looks like a good guy,but really he's a cruel person and a cheater who abuses the powers of his Millennium Eye. I don't know how he got it,nor why it would bond with someone like him, but one thing is for sure,Pegasus is gonna loose at his own game,literally.

"Well,"Yugi says."We gotta start somewhere." Docking,and dropping the anchor,we finally arrived at Duelist Kingdom. On the docks is where some more security guards stand. Man, how much security does Pegasus need? I mean really!"Whoa,check out the suits."Says Joey.

"Attention Duelist! Please disembark in and orderly fashion."Sound out one of the guards on a mic. Tristan then starts to look nervous and leans down to Tea."Hey,Tea, what if one of those security guys finds out we're both stowaways? We ought'a just play it safe and swim back." Tea then immediately replies."We are in the middle of nowhere,lamebrain! If you can just try and act normal,we'll be okay."

We all then start leaving the ship onto the docks with Tristan whispering to himself."Just act cool. Act cool. Cool as a cucumber. Keep it cool." He was kinda walking like he was a wind-up toy soldier.

"Hey,you."

Tristan freezes as he was called at. "Don't look so nervous. You guys are our guest here." Tristan then jumps around."That's right." He then bows to the guard."I'm your guest." he then walks back to us,me face palming at the way he was walking again. He was panting and whimpering as he stopped, putting his hands on his knees like he just ran a marathon. Straightening up,he finally says."I think I just had a heart attack."

"Way to play it cool,Tristan. That wasn't suspicious at all" I had to suppress a laugh at her sarcasm,putting a hand to my mouth to try and muffle a snicker. Joey then brings two fist up with a confident grin."All right! Every single one of us made it here safe and- Ah-choo!" Tea had to dodge Joey's sneeze,letting out an "Ew!" Yugi turns to him with a expression of worry."You would never have caught that cold if it wasn't for Weevil."

Recap,last night on the boat,Weevil threw Yugi's Exodia cards overboard to get swept away by the salt water below. Joey,didn't think,and jumped in after them,a stupid thing to do I might add. He could have gotten himself killed! Weevil may have done something awful,but it wasn't something worth almost drowning over.

"Speaking of our wormy friend,"Says Joey,rubbing his nose with a finger."Looks like he just slithered his way off the boat and is already lookin' to start some trouble."We all turn to see the green beetle head himself. I really dislike him for what he did. I was hoping to remain neutral,but I guess that isn't a possibility anymore,not from what after he did. His grin could put the Cashmere Cat's grin to shame. Sneaky looking and looking to ruin someones day."That slime-ball."The blond continues."I'd love ta wipe dat smirk off his face." I have to admit,so would I,but I hate holding grudges.

"Welcome all duelist!" says one of the security guards that had his brown hair in weird looking spike. Wonder how much gel it took to make all that. If I remember over hearing correctly earlier,I think his name was...Kemo? "Please,follow the stairs to meet your host. I see that stairs behind him are REALLY long. Not that I would complain,but I'd hate to hear Joey and Tristan cry about their feet flying off.

"That castle's gotta belong to Pegasus." I hear Yugi say,I give him a nod in reply."And where Pegasus lies,so will Mr Muto." Joey then starts walking, eager to get started."Then what are we waiting for?" So with that said,we began walking.

I wonder what Pegasus has planned for us. How does he plan to get mine and Yugi's and the other Items?What's the point of this tournament if he's just after us? I don't get it. Wouldn't it just be easier just to track all us down and challenge us to a duel to get them? Well Yugi's and the others anyway. Mine can't be won in a duel, I have to willingly give it up. But I don't what use it has for him anyway. All it can do is sense other Items and hold my powers and connect them to the Millennium Puzzle.

I don't know If I explained this yet,but the reason why the Millennium Talisman is connected to the Puzzle, is because it was once a puzzle piece itself. You'd probably think that the Puzzle is incomplete with out it,but actually this puzzle piece was actually an extra piece from when it was made,left over materials you could say.

When I got it though, it was an actual puzzle piece and not really a talisman. Once it was fused with my magic along with some magic of the Puzzle itself sense it was a part of it, it reformed into the shaped it is now. Sense it was only a puzzle piece then,it didn't have all Millennium Item traits. Like I said,I can't use it to call forth the shadow realm ,I can't use any type of shadow magic at all. Instead it protects me from it. So being in the shadow realm doesn't effect me that much and is why Pegasus couldn't use the magic of his eye on me.

"Huh,whats that?" I hear Tea say making me look at her ,curious as a cat as to what she was talking about."Huh, what do ya see,Tea?" Yugi asks. She then points in the direction somewhere in the woods where she saw something,looking at us saying,"I think I just saw...Bakura." BAKURA!? He's here!? The Theif King himself!? Last I saw him was near the end of the Legendary Battle in Egypt,before he did the unspeakable.

I could feel my blood filling up with ice-water. The thought of the things he did just brought back bad memories. The way he disrespected the gods by robbing tombs of pharaohs,causing terrorism within the kingdom. I've fought him myself,but only because I interfered with his battles with the Pharaoh. Despite all the evil he's committed,I couldn't blame him. He only did such acts because of...unfortunate experiences.

"Bakura from school?" I hear Yugi ask,bringing me out of my thoughts."Again,with this Bakura stuff?" Says Tristan,somewhat sounding like he didn't want to believe. Honestly,I didn't want to either."Where is he Tea." Joey ask and she responds."That's 2 times I've seen him now,but he's not there anymore. Maybe it's all in may head." Yeah,I hope so. I seriously don't want to deal with him yet,not with Pegasus's plans happening."Come on,"Tristan comes again."we're on a rescue mission,remember?"

We then start heading back up the stairs,but as we did, I could feel a familiar stare that I could only Identify as Bakura's. It was a very unpleasant feeling. Especially sense it seems to be directed at me. Though he's probably looking mostly at Yugi,but It didn't seem that way. What does he want?


Finally, after a long walk up the stairs and dealing with a few complaints,we arrived at the castle doors. When we got there,I could already clearly hear murmurs and talk within the crowd gathering.

"Wow,look! That's Weevil Underwood! He's the Regional Champion!"

"And that's the Runner- Up ,Rex Rapter!"

"And there's Mako Tsunami, he was ranked third."

"Not only are they here,but the Silver duelist,the top duelist in America,Shikiira Silvieay, is here too!"

"Wow,these are all the best duelist in the world,but where's the world champion,Kaiba?"

"Didn't ya hear? Some kid beat him. On his own turf too."

"Are you serious?I thought Kaiba was the best."

"He was,but not anymore. Yugi's suppose to be the one to beat now,and the Silver duelist is gonna be just as hard to win against."

Wow,only a week and Yugi is already well known. And what do they mean by me being just as hard to beat? I the top duelist in America,not second place of the entire world. I'm not that good. Yes I'm being modest, mostly because being a celebrity isn't my thing. I only duel to have fun...and to save the world on rare occasions I might add.

"Attention duelist!" I hear Kemo ring out again from up on top the castle balcony. I swear,how many times we heard that line? Next thing ya now he starts adding,'My hair' into all his self references. I mean come on,look at it! It's sticking up like rhino horn or something."Please gather around. Your benevolent host is anxious to greet you all." More like malevolent.

"Boy would I like get just 5 minutes alone with that guy."Says Joey. Even though I've already had my share of fun with him,I'm still gonna beat him to get Mr Muto back. I not doing it for revenge,I'm just helping a friend is all. I then see Pegasus appear over the balcony's edge, and look down at us.

He had a menacing look in his eyes when he looked at Yugi,but when he looked at me...it seem to change to that of slight sympathy,but it was faint ,but I could tell,but couldn't understand why. When we first met he was a menacing ,sly, creep that wanted nothing but to take what wasn't his. What could he feel sympathetic for? Was it because he the memory of mine he saw?

"Greetings duelist! I am Maximillion Pegasus!"Said person began." It is my great honor and pleasure to welcome you all to the Duelist Kingdom."Yeah,sure it is,why don't ya skip all the action and get straight to the point! No? Well then,moving on!"You stand before me,the World's greatest duelists! But come tournament's end, only one shall be crowned King of games,but of course,another, as the Queen of Games! For what King would be with out his Queen?" Oh great,after hearing that I kinda don't want to win such a title. I want to stay just as the Silver Duelist, thank you very much! I'd rather stay a servant too.

"I implore you all to assemble your dueling decks with care,with creativity,and with cunning,for this competition will test your skills like never before! To track your progress in the tournament,you've each been given a dueling glove. You've also been given 2 precious star-chips. You must wager these star-chips on each duel you compete in."Yugi and I then put on our dueling glove,but I had to be careful to not let the mark on my right hand show,so I made sure no one was looking while I switched out my blue fingerless one with the dueling one. I then snapped the star-chips in the holes on the brace of the glove.

"To advance to the final level of competition for a chance at $3 dollar prize,"Seriously why are people saying dollar? This isn't America! It's still Japan! But then again,why should I care? I'm not after a couple of bucks. I here to stop Pegasus from hurting any one else!" you must win 10 star-chips! 10 star-chips will admit you into my castle,where you'll face me in one final duel!" Music to my ears. Once we beat Pegasus,we'll stop what ever he is planning and save both Mr Muto and Joey's sister,Serenity.

"This will be a tournament unlike anything you have ever experienced. State-of-the-art dueling arena's cover this entire island,and intriguing new dueling rules will be in effect. I could tell you what these new rules are,but what fun would that be?"You'll discover them as you compete,or you won't last long very long. Remember,play boldly,think strategically,and duel mercilessly! You have one full hour to prepare,both your cards and yourselves. When the skies light up with fire works,the duels will begin!"


"Yugi,I don't know if I can win this thing." Says Joey,holding up his only star-chip. We had walked back from the castle into one of the flowery meadows below. A lot was running through my mind. Like what do we do once we gain all 10 needed star-chips and advance into the next phase of the tournament? What does Pegasus plan to do with us once we get there? And what does he want with the Millennium Items and how does he plan to get them? So many good questions,but they are questions that are still in the dark.

"Maybe it'd be best to take your star-chip back." Yugi declined Joeys suggestion."Nah,you keep it. Your little sisters counting on you to win the tournament's prize money for her." I then pat him on the back and say."Yeah,so don't go doubting yourself on us,'kay?" His smile broadens in gratitude as he replies."Right,Thanks."

"You can do it. "Says Tea."Ya just gotta steer clear of the more experienced duelist at first." Tristan then adds,"Yeah,it's just a matter of working your way up." Raising a fist up I also give a few words of encouragement." And once ya got the hang of it,I'm sure you'll be able to rock this island." Joey then says." Thanks you guys." He then turns to Yugi."Well Yugi,between your grandpa and my sister,we don't have any room for mistakes."

-EEEeeeer BOOM BA BOOM!-

"The fire works!" Tea says."It's starting!" I then jump for joy and pump a fist in the air."Alright! Time to set some fire to the stage," I say with fire in my eyes."and really get rolling. Watch out people,'cause here we come!" I hear Joey laugh as he places a hand on my head and ruffles my hair,sort of taking me by surprise."Man,"He says."I didn't know you had such fire in ya,Shikiira." I blinked. Of course I do! What made him think such a thing?" What do ya mean by that?" I asked raising a brow. He just smiles and shrugs."I dunno." I cock my head to the side still curious,but shake it off."Well any way. It's time to get dueling!" Yugi was on the same page,clutching his fist in pure determination."Lets do it!"


We then start walking and to go find some duelist to duel,but I bet I know who Yugi has his sights set on. Joey then asked."So what's your plan,Yugi?" His answer was as clear as glass."Well I might as well stick with Weevil. After all,we do have a score to settle." Joey was one the same page,judging by the the big grin he had."I was hoping you'd say that."

Yugi then turns to me."So,Shikiira, what do you plan to do?" I then put my hands behind my head as I answered." I'm just gonna let the others come to me. I'm pretty sure It'll be worth the wait. After all ,most of the time,the ones that come to you are the ones that are a challenge,unless they are over their heads."Yugi chuckles at my words and smiles."Well, I hope you win all your duels." I smile back."Don't worry about me,right now worry about Weevil,I'm sure that dung-beetle is around here some where." He nods.

"Say,isn't that him?"Tea asks as she spots some one up ahead. I look in the same direction and see the familiar beetle head with his annoying smirk happily stretching across his face. Yugi eyes narrow,as well as my own,and he yells out to him."Weevil, I challenge you to a duel!" Weevil just laughs and turns into the forest behind him and runs in. That coward!"I can't believe it,Weevil's running away!" Joey exclaims."Well, he ain't getting away!" I say then take off before anyone could say 'Lets go'.

"Wait up Shikiira!" I hear Yugi call out as the he and the others followed in pursuit. I was ran after Weevil as fast as I could. I wasn't gonna let him back down so easily from a challenge. Not after the cowardly act he pulled on the ship. I was running so fast I could hear the air silently whispering past my ears. It was like a song driving me to go faster so I could catch that bug before it ran into it's hole.

I could see Weevil clearly as I drew closer. He seemed to notice as he looked behind him and stumble in surprise at how close I was getting and ran as fast as his little legs could carry him. He wasn't gonna outrun me. That was until what seemed like thousands moths stirred from their hiding places,slightly catching my by surprise. Luckily all it did was make skip a few steps,but I was still hot on his tail.

Finally we came to a clearing as I had caught up to him as I grabbed him by the neck if his jacket."Got ya!" He shrieked as I did. He started to struggle to break free. I rolled my eyes as he threatened me about how he would do more than crush me in a duel. I then released by pushing him forward,making him stumble a bit." You've got all lot of nerve-"

"Shikiira!"

I then turn around to see the rest of the group had finally caught up. They where all panting and bending over on their knees. After catching a few breaths, Tristan managed to say." Man,Shikiira, when did ya learn to run like that. Your fast for a little girl." My eye twitched at the last comment. I didn't like how people viewed me as such. It sounded like they were saying I wasn't capable of such things. Why are girls always underestimated,especially when they're short!"Maybe your just slow for a big guy." I hear Tea say,seeming to be equally offended.

I hear Weevil laugh again and says as I turn to him."Welcome,said the spider to the fly." He really isn't in the position to be saying such things. He then points at us with a big grin stretching ear-to-ear."You flew right into my trap...again!" I pretended to act scared,waving my arms around."Oh no! What a nightmare!" I say ,my voice filled with definite sarcasm.

Yugi eyes narrow even more as he says."It's time to answer for what you did on the boat ,Weevil!" I Then feel my Talisman heat up on my neck and glow,and at the same time,see Yugi's Puzzle glow as him and the Pharaoh switched places once more."YUGIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!"

I smiled brightly as I saw him once again. He first looked at me, then at Weevil and smirked."Heh. All right ,Weevil." He says with a short laugh."Time to find out if your as good as dueling as you are running away." Weevil's smirk didn't falter."Was I simply running away or cleverly weaving you into my web?" I Raise a brow."Cleverly." I echo." Says the kid who paniced just because someone gabbed him by the jacket and shrieked like a girl." His smirk then turned into a frown at my retort. The Pharaohs smirk broadened. "It's time to duel!"

Weevil laughed irritatingly."As you wish!"

Suddenly the ground started to rumble beneath our feet!"It's an earthquake!" I hear Tristan cry. Weevil was laugh more at our reactions,though I was only curious as to what was going on."What have you done!?" The Pharaoh demands. Suddenly the ground behind Weevil begins to open up."Woah,"Tristan cries again."The entire ground is transforming!" Then whirling and screeching,a dueling arena raises out from the opening."It's gigantic!" Tea gasps. Two dueling booths then raise up above the arena,one red and one blue,the four other Polls with lights on them emerged ,two on both sides of the arena."Man,these aren't gonna be like the duels back home." No duh.

You've just stepped into a hornet's nest,and there's no way out!" His creepy grin was really beginning to bother me."What is that?" The Pharaoh asks,amazed just by the sheer size of the thing."These giant arena's must be set up all over the Island." I then look at him like he was kidding."Well, Pegasus did say high-tech dueling arenas covered the entire Island." Tea and Tristan sighed while Joey scratched the back of his head ,embarrassed now knowing he had forgotten such a thing.

"I'll meet you on the field."Says Weevil ,turning to the red booth,jogs over and leaps onto the platform and it raises him up to the top of the booth."I don't like this." says Joey."Weevils a little too cocky." He was right. What was Weevil up to this time? Is he planning to cheat in this duel,just like how he pulled off that cheap stunt back at the boat. I have to admit,this won't be a walk in the park,but I can't go doubting the Pharaoh."Even so,Yugi can out smart this flea." I say crossing my arms.

"I noticed that you just have one star-chip,Yugi." Weevil points out with a smirk."I guess that means I'll have the pleasure of elimination you from the tournament!Once your gone,everyone else's chips will be easy pickings." The Pharaoh then shoots back at him,"Not if I take your 2 first."

"What?" Weevil says with disbelief. The Pharaoh answers,"This will be an all our nothing match for the both of us." Weevil thought it was some kind of child's joke. "Ha! Why should I risk both my star-chips,when you only have one?" I had to admit. He had a point,what was the Pharaoh going to offer? He doesn't have anything other than...wait is he really going to risk that?"Because I have something else I think you want-" He then holds up his dueling deck to him." My whole Duel Monster's deck!"

Weevil seemed to be every pleased about his offer as a creepy grin drew itself across his face."So,you's risk your grandpa's deck? Fine with me." He laughed as his glasses flashed when he reared back his head in the laugh."Winning all your cards will be an easy way to exterminate you once and for all!"

"Exterminate!?" Tea gasped. Joey then clenched his fist and yelled,"Swat that little twerp like a mosquito!" I call out to him as well." Yeah! Take him out to the trash where ants like him belong!" The Pharaoh turn to us and gave a thumbs up. I know he's gonna win this. After all, he never gives up when things get rough. So he's gonna set some fire to this arena!

"That's Weevil Underwood,but whose's the other guy?" I hear someone say form behind. I looked around to see that other duelist have discovered what was going on here. Looks like we're going to have an audience. Joey smiled and answered the random duelist's question."That guy is Yugi Muto. He beat Kaiba," He then gestures a thumb to himself." And I'm I happen to be his best friend,Joey Wheeler." He then gestures to me."And this is our newest pal and da top duelist in America,da Silver Duelist, Shikiira Silveay." He then gestures to Tea and Tristan."and these two? These two are tresspassers." I anime fell with Tea and Tristan following.

"I thought I wouldn't be seeing a Weevil/Yugi match up till the finals!"

"Weevil's regional champ. No new kid's gotta chance against him."

"Everybody has a chance at something."I say others wise about that last part."And Yugi definitely has a chance at beating Weevil."

"Well,Yugi,my adoring public is waiting,so we should begin."says Weevil as the arena powers up and readies itself.

"Duel!" They both shout out.


LP- Weevil 2000/Yugi 2000

Both draw five cards,Weevil goes first sense he draws his first card."Lets see how you like my Killer Needle." He placed the monster in attack mode with 1200 Atk and 1000 defense. The lights on the arena shimmer as a hologram of Killer Needle appears. It looked like a giant wasp of some sort. The Pharaoh holds shows a card to him."You'll have to get through my Mammoth Graveyard first." He placed it Atk mode too and the monster appeared as the skeleton of a mammoth with 1200 Atk as well,but 800 Def,in stance,ready for an order."This massive monster will match your annoying insect point for point. Attack!"

At his command, Mammoth Graveyard charged at Killer needle. Weevil grinned. Why would he be grinning? His monster's about to be taken out." Killer Needle,lets show that mammoth your stinger!" Weevil shouts out."Attack!" The overgrown wasp then charged Mammoth Graveyard head on,well stinger. The attacks collide and Mammoth Graveyard shimmers,then vanishes."No!" The Pharaoh gasps ,quickly followed by my own. Shouldn't both be destroyed? Their attacks were equal.

"Ha!" Weevil laughs."Gone after one sting? He must be allergic." I don't understand. Why didn't Weevil's monster get destroyed? Could he have cheated and rigged the machine? Or is it malfunctioning? Hold on, Weevil says there was gonna be some changes in the game,and Pegasus confirmed that. But what kind of changes? I look closer at the dueling arena. Every thing seems to be the same,though there's forest and wasteland designs on the field...wait,the field,that's it!

"Have you begun to figure out yet why I lured you all the way to this forest arena ?"Weevil asks with a smirk, but before he could say anything else... "So you could get a field power bonus."I say ,taking him by surprise."The field of the arena replicates the surrounding environment,half wasteland and half forest. In Duel Monsters, field cards give certain types of monsters a power bonus depending on what kind of field it is. And sense insects live in forests,it they get the power bonus." Weevil stared at me for s second then grinned."Right you are,seems like some people are more observant that others. Yes,one of the new rules involves the new fields on the arena. And this one is half forest,so as long as I play my Insects ,my monsters will be stronger than ever before! Hehehe!"

"I'm surprised you couldn't figure that out sooner ,Yugi."Weevil went on." Or maybe you weren't listening when Pegasus mentioned the exciting new surprises this tournament would have in store. Maybe if you were smart enough to steal the tournament's secret new rules like I did, you'd be getting a field power bonus instead if me! HAHAHAHA!" Killer Needle's Atk had rose by 360,giving it a grand total of 1560 Atk points. Guess he did cheat. He knew them all along and used it to his advantaged,well,it's too bad it back fired.

"He cheated."Says Joey,clearly just as upset about this as I am."He lead us here 'cause he knew he'd have an unfair advantage." Weevil didn't seem to care about what we think of him."Go ahead, call me a cheater! You're all just angry you didn't swipe the rules yourselves. And because you didn't,little Yugi is about to get stung."

"Hahaha." The Pharaoh laughs,putting confusion to Weevil's expression."What? How can you be laughing?" The Pharaoh then says,"Because. Take a look at your ferocious Killer Needle now." Said monster began to glow and hum,then burst into a bright light and disappear."Oh,no,my monster!'Weevil cries as he shields his eyes. "What have you done with my monster!?" Looking at his panel he gasps as he sees Mammoth Graveyards Atk was the still the same as Killer Needles."This makes no creature was supercharged with the field power bonus,but according to this,Yugi's creature somehow became just as powerful."

"Seriously?" I say." You can't have already forgotten. The Forest isn't the only field posted on the arena." The Pharaoh then points the field and says,"That's right! The field is also half wasteland,so my Mammoth also gets a field power bonus,just like your bug gained from the forest!" Weevil growls at the fact."Grr. The field power bonus was suppose to be mine alone!" I then come in and say." Seems like you didn't think this through. If you knew about the other fields ,then you should have known there would be a possibility that Yugi would get the power bonus as well. But you didn't,did you."

"I kept wondering about something on the boat ride here ,Weevil." The Pharaoh states. Why were we traveling to some remote island just to duel? But as soon as I saw this holographic display grid, it all came together. Every monster has a type of field that it does best on,kind of like a home-field advantage. And what makes this island so special,is that it contains every type of field imaginable! So when you deliberately led us to this spot,you were clearly hoping to get some kind of field advantage." Weevil growls at first,but then he quickly starts laughing. Whaaaa?

"You're awfully clever to put it all together like that,Yugi,but figuring out one rule won't be enough. There are hidden surprises under every rock,and I know them all." Tea and the others didn't doubt The pharaoh for a second,despite the odds."You can beat him,yugi!" She says followed by Joey saying,"Don't let that flea scare ya. He's bluffin'!" I didn't doubt him either,not one bit." Yeah, prove how much of a coward he is!" He turned to us and gave a nod."Don't you worry,I'll take care of him."

"Really?" Weevil asks with twisted smirk as he draws a card."Then lets see how you can take care of this." He places a monster in attack mode that looks like a giant horned beetle with it's original Atk and Def jumping up to 1950 Atk and 2600 Def,thanks to the field."My Hercules Beetle will find a way to crawl under your skin!" Apparently one of the new rules is that you can't attack directly ,from what I've heard,as it is now the Pharaohs turn.

He draws then stares at his cards for a few moments,then he pulls a card from his hand and places it in attack mode."I play Feral Imp." a green fluffy monster with wings then appeared on the field. It looked rabid as it's names states. The Pharaoh then takes another card form his hand and places it in the spell/trap zone."And now I'll add this Horn of the Unicorn so it's magic will raise my attack points." The horn appears on Feral Imps forehead,it's Atk going from 1300 to 2000,50 more than Weevil's beetle. Weevil didn't seem phased.

"You'll have to do a lot better than that! Hercules Beetle,attack!" Two plates on it's belly glow,then shoot waves of white blasts at Feral Imp. But why? It's attack is lower than Feral Imp's."Feral Imp, Magic Lightning,attack!" Feral Imp then charged up its new horn,sparking electricity, then shoots,and hits the Hercules beetle dead on,but the attack just bounces off! Not only that,when Hercules Beetle's attack hit,Feral Imp was destroyed!

"Yugi's attack didn't even phase that thing!" I hear Tea say, with Joey then saying,"Something's screwy!" The Pharaoh was just as confused as us."My Feral Imps Magic Lightning attack should have destroyed your beetle! Is this another trick ,Weevil?" Weevil replies."No,Yugi. I just thought you knew that all monsters with a field power bonus were also resistant to any types of magic attack,and sense my Hercules Beetle easily deflected your lightning bolts ,he has more than enough power left to destroy your puny Feral Imp and continue to eat away at your life points." Just as he said,the Pharaohs life points dropped.

LP-Weevil 2000/ Yugi 1350

"Even that four-eyes tick's weakest bugs are gonna be tough to beat so long as he has that field power bonus."Says Joey. Tristan then points out,"Yeah,but it's not exactly like it can just be turned off." Tea then says."That Weevil's a no good cheat." Even so,I still wont doubt the Pharaoh." Cheat or no cheat, Yugi can still pull this off,where there's a will there's a way."

"It's your turn."Says Weevil."Make your move." The Pharaoh draws,then takes a monster card and puts it in face-down defense mode."So,defending now ,are we?" Weevil asks with a smug filled grin."Very clever! Sense I can't see your monsters defense points,I can't be sure I can beat it. But even your strongest monster can't stand against my Basic insect." He then placed his monster in attack mode,the one he used against Raptor to win the regionals. It's Atk 650 instead of it's original 500 and its def from 700 to 910."Not only does my insect get a field power bonus,but I'm upgrading with a level 3 Laser Cannon and a level 2 Power boost!" Said weapons appeared on Basic insects back,raising its attack even more.

"Now,Yugi,for all the innocent little bugs you've squashed,crushed,stomped,or fumigated,it's payback time!" Basic Insect then fired it's laser cannon at the Pharaoh's defense monster,destroying it without any problem what so ever. Weevil laughed again. What is he? A hyena?"You'll have to do better than that if you hope to survive my bugs laser-powered arsenal."

The Pharaoh draws and holds a card up,but doesn't show it."Then I play this card." He sets another monster in face-down defense mode. Mmmm ,Weevil thinks, another defense card,no doubt,and I'll make sure defending is all he can do! "I'm going to keep you on the defensive,attack now with any monster,and you will instantly activate this trap card." He holds up the card,but doesn't show it,and lays it in the spell/trap zone. Is he really trying to scare the Pharaoh? He's gonna need to do a lot more than that."That Weevil's got Yugi cornered!" Tristan exclaims. Joey then adds."Yeah,he can't even counterattack!"

"As long as my trap card remains in play,your powerless to make a move against me! So,does my tightening web make you squirm?" Weevil says,clearly thinking he's already got this match won. He thinks he can take it all with out having to dodge a quick whip of a fly swatter. Well he has another thing coming,and one rule he should always know,never underestimate the Pharaoh. He's so busy gloating and bragging he's not paying any attention to what the Pharaoh is even doing!

"Face it Yugi,I've got you pinned down,and while you're totally unable to attack me,I can attack you anytime I want! Each turn you cower,I create a new monster." The turns went by with out either attacking,the Pharaoh only drawing cards while Weevil draws and continues to play monsters on the field till he hits the limited amount of five."Keep drawing ,Yugi. My army of insects just keep getting bigger! I'm going to wipe out all your monsters in one bug blitzkrieg!"

Despite it all, the Pharaoh seem clam with narrowed eyes."Just look at our Yugi."Says Tea."He's so confident up there." Joey agrees."I know. When he's duelin',it's like he becomes a totally different guy."Oh they have no idea that that's not even Yugi at all. Instead that's Pharaoh playing the game with out Yugi himself noticing he's guiding him.

Weevil laughs once again as he holds a card up,I guess he really is a hyena!"Well what do ya know?I'm down to my last monster insect, and you know what that means, Yugi? You're about to be exterminated!" He then places his fifth and final bug in attack mode."Well see what my cards have to say about it." Says the Pharaoh as he draws another card."All right Weevil! I defend with Dark magician!" He placed said monster in face-down defense. He's got something good now.

Weevil seems pleased about it."Excellent! I'll destroy your very favorite card first! Now my pet,power up your laser cannon!" Basic Insect did as so as it crouched and charged up it weapon."Attack!" It's cannon glowed while the Pharaoh laughed."What?" Weevil asks taken back by the sudden happy moment of the Pharaoh."Wh-why are you laughing!?" The Pharaoh points at the beetle head and says,"Weevil,your not the only one who can set a trap card."

"What!?" The Pharaoh then explains."You were so busy grandstanding,you paid no attention to the cards I put into play." A confused Weevil then says,"But I thought they were all monster c-c-cards?" The Pharaoh smirked."Not all. While you loaded the field with your bug monsters, I prepared a special surprise,"He then holds up the trap card Weevil triggered."The power of my Mirror Force trap card!"

"Hold your fire!" Weevil cried out to his monster as it shot the laser blast." Too late,Weevil. You already ordered your attack on my Dark Magician," The Dark Magician then appeared in a kneeling position in for its defense mode while a shimmering wall appeared before him making Weevil's attack bounce off ,returning it to his monsters."And Mirror Force will deflect it right back at you!" Another rule now was that when monsters are destroyed by spell or trap, Life points are taken by the amount of half the destroyed monster's life points. So Weevil just lost a big hunk of his."My life points are devastated!"

LP-Weevil 555/ Yugi 1350

"Hey!"

"Yeah ,Yugi!"

"Way to go!"

"Way to beat him at his own game ,Yugi!" I cheer along with the I said,never underestimate the Pharaoh and what he can do. It ain't over yet,Weevil still as more hurt to come,and it ain't gonna be pretty for him. He sure wasn't pleased about this though.

He obliterated my army of beautiful bugs ,Weevil thought, How dare he!"You're a liar and a cheat, Weevil, but is was your overconfidence that allowed me to get the best of you. You're insects are decimated. You're life points are low,and as you yourself said before,you have used up all your monsters." Weevil laughed."Actually,I lied about that too." Aw come on! What is he planning now!?" I still have my most formidable creature waiting in the wing, and this unconquerable insect will swat you down once and for all!" What 's going to happen now? What is Weevil about to bring out? And how will the Pharaoh counter it?
