"Hurry up, we cannot delay this duel." Mai said as she basically dragged me to find another duel arena.

The rest were following from behind as I try to keep up the pace. It was almost impossible since Mai was wearing fucking damn boots heels. As we made to a meadow area, there was already a dueling arena. Just for both of us to get in and start to duel. Mai let go my forearm and heads toward the red podium. I sigh as I head to the blue one. I hopped in and withdrew my deck from my deck box. To which was strapped on my left thigh.

"Chop, chop Nana." Mai said, getting on my nerve.

I try to gather air to sooth down my anxious. "I am ready, Mai."

"Good, you know the rules."

I nod.

"We will be cheering for you!" Joey shouted bellow from me.

I look over at them as I smiles slightly. I have notice the tall Yugi didn't change back to the small one, strange. Then turn my gaze on Mai, who become my fist opponent to duel today. I lower my eyes to realize the field advantage.

"Forest, mountain and meadow. " I said as I look at Mai. "I see you choose a well field advantage."

Mai scoff as she place five cards facedown, wait. How can she duel of having those card faces down? Instead, I did not say anything as I look at my five cards.

"I shall leave the beginner first." Mai said, practically teasing.

I shake my head as I picked a looking-corpse monster. "I summon Ghoul Dragon in attack mode."

I place it as it does the sound, the bright light form my monster, a dragon. Looking likes un-dead with black hole-eyes but wings spread wide to reveal the several hole on it. Also the skin hugging on it bone. "With the field power bonus, it will bring the power up over three hundred points."

Mai look horrified. "I thought you said it was fantasy deck!"

"And I wasn't the only one then!" Tristan shouted.

I narrow my eyes at all of them. "I brought surprises."

"Hm!" Mai closes her eyes and start to humming mystically.

"What the...?"

I can tell everyone is watching Mai from what she is doing. I took a notice; her five cards were face down on the surface. She continue humming, something seem really off.

"Whaddaya think you're doin'!" Joey asks.

"Divining my card. I have to mystically choose which one of them's the best." Mai responded.

I was pretty freak out about this. "Say what?"

"I'm a psychic, Nana." Mai said, open one eyelid.

"Shit..." I mumble to myself.

"And the best card would be... Mm. The Harpie's Lady!"

A monster appeared on the mountain, with loud caw. The hand and feet are talons, blue, feather wings sprout from the back of each arm; she has a tail of blue feathers as well. The skin was light-blue, pretty and fierce lady with unnaturally red hair and skintight top and leggings. I realize it has an advantage attack points.

"Her strength is boosted by the mountains' field bonus!"

It raises the attack as Mai command the attack, my life point went straight to thirty-sevenhundred life point.

"Am I going bit harder on you, sweetheart?" Mai laugh as she closes her eyes. "Oh cards, speak to me! Mm-mm-mm... And I'll choose again without looking!"

She places another card facedown, damn it.

"Oi! Don't let Mai tease you!"

I blink as I look to see it was Joey.

"He's right! Don't let that sack-hag bring you down!" Téa shouted, strange.

I nodded at them as I look at Mai; serious was written on my face. As I drew a card, the corner of my lip curled up as I place it facedown.

"Oh? You're not attacking?" Mai crosses her arm.

I shake my head. "I guess I'm having a feeling." I slowly grin at her. "Feeling of fun!"

"What? Dueling is not about fun, you twat."

I shrugged.

"Hey! Don't you call her twat, you stupid!" Téa yelled at Mai, trying to insult her.

Mai rolled her eyes. "Are you done?"

I nod. Then Mai command the attack but I couldn't help but to laugh. Which it got her curious.

"What are you laughing?!"

"Well, the thing is." I tap the side of my chin with my index finger. "This monster is an effect, so if any of my opponent commands an attack. I can flip it and... Well the rest is for you to find out!"

"What?!"

As I did, I flip my monster to reveal a female with legs of dragon, helmet as two-set horns on each side and claws of dragons. The scale is darker and the dress did not have any sleeves or tank-top as the flow dress was open in the middle. The skin was combining with the color of blue-skins that matches the scale. It had its own scepter with the nail of dragon, it kneel down before launch directly to Mai. Dropping to twenty-one hundred life points.

My monster returns back but as defense position by kneeling down and scepter lay down.

Mai glared at me. "What was that?!"

"Oh that's Draco Magam. See, I don't own hardly creepy monster."

I could hear the cheering of three of them, but Yugi only gave a short nod. Probably appreciate my lack of plan.

"Hmph! I'll take stronger monster than your fantasy wimps to beat my Harpie's Lady! Now, I'll play this lovely card without even looking." She put it another face down. "I'll give you a hint; it's an equipment magic card that will help me defeat your next card in one turn."

"Whatever is, you psychic stuff won't terrify me down." I said as I withdrew another one yet another obnoxious feeling came through. 'Wait, can she tell what my next monster is?'

I look over at the duel then to my deck, I end up shaking my head. 'No, I wouldn't let her freak me out. Either way, I'm going to put another defensive monster. Just in case.'

I thought as I set it down.

"Running scared, huh? Well let me show you my surprise... Cyber Shield! To juice up my Harpie's Lady!"

A glossy, metallic-maroon armor that raises that Harpie Lady's points pretty damn high. She caws and dives with both clawed feet first onto my defense monster. She end up destroying my mechanic dragon as it was destroying right in my eyes. At least, it did protect my life point.

I clench my jaw. Just how she is doing that?

Mai laughs. "This is so much fun! In case you were wondering, the next card you were thinking of won't work either."

I let out a hint of smirks, it caught Mai off. She frowned of her confusion. "Why are you smirking there?"

"Me? Smirking? Silly of me, I could have spoiled the beans." I chuckle as I look at my deck. 'Believe in the heart of the card.'

Mai glared. "Hurry up!"

I drew another deck as I look at it, yes. This is the one I needed.

"Well, Mai. It was the pleasure to duel with you and the tips of my friends." I said as I turn to Yugi, who titled the side of his head.

"What?"

"Because I play this! Inferno field spell!" I slam down my field spell.

The entire duel field slowly changes to red, gooey river with several rocks around it. I notice how Harpie Lady's attack point went back to original one. I smiles as I look at Mai.

"Wait what?!"

I rub the nostril of my nose. "Wait when you see this."

"What?! Hurry up!"

I flip Draco Magam in attack mode then I lift one the card that was on my hand. "There's taste of fear, when the servant call. Burn smoke tame the land, burn claim it all." I said as if I was narrating a fairy tale. "Tis, was a legend. A legend I possess, inferno belongs to his land. I cannot summon if I have one or more monster in my graveyard."

I notice the shocking expression on Mai's face.

"For I summon, The High King Dragon! Razantakao in attack mode!"

As I slam down my card, we can the bubble forming on the lava. To end up slowing rising as it stream down, creating a face. A red sharp and large face, wings slowly spread as the nostril snort short fume. This dragon has three set horn to form like a crown, white fur around bellow it neck. Mai never left her eyes at Razantakao.

"And I command my attack; fist Draco Magam directly to your Harpie Lady."

Mai life point went down to two hundred.

"I almost forgot this field will raise five hundred attacks to any fire monster." I smiles.

Mai again was speechless as she looks at my dragon. "W-What?"

"Attack directly to her life point!"

The dragon open his mouth as it form crispy-sound of fire and spread out directly to Mai's life point to one hundred.

"So Mai? I end my turn."

"I take everything I said about her deck." Joey said as I turn my head to them.

"Whoa just whoa. A powerful monster?" Téa was awed.

"But what Mai would do? She has no monster on her field?" Tristan asks as he looks at Mai.

I turn over to Mai and realize her shocking was dismissed.

"I did underestimate you, Nana. Let's call it a day."

"Huh? You're forfeiting?"

"Of course, you show me what kind your deck is." Mai said, gathering her deck.

The monster in the field disappeared as I stayed there confuse.

But Mai smiled across from the duel platform and gave a thumb up. "For now, I'm going to duel that twerp Joey."

I felt a sweatdrop, of course. Once I was off from the podium, Yugi, well the tall one appeared in front of me.

"It seems you know your strategy to win this?"

"Oh, yes. But it was with a little help." I said.

Yugi blinks. "Oh? Believe in the Heart of the card?"

I nodded. "I took bit practice with my mother; she had won almost four times. In the fifth time, I won by using that advice."

Yugi smiles as he nodded. "Now we get to watch Joey first time to duel."

I smiles as we look at Joey but I turn to Yugi. I get the feeling this is not exactly the Yugi I know, this was more someone else. I wouldn't mind to become friend with this person. But for now, we need the small Yugi back.
