Episode 6 – King of the Underworld Dark Dragon.
The three friends (Ishira, Yachiro and Arianna) looked at Kiryo with their lower jaws hanging.
-What... just… happened? Asked Yachiro. You took out Beck in ONE TURN? That's… that's…
-Tsk, Why? Is he supposed to be a good duelist? Asked Kiryo.
-Actually, said Ishira, Beck's father is designer in Industrial Illusions. His deck is custom-made, and he gets every rare card he wants.
-Hm. Another fool that thinks the rarest cards have to be the best. Gimme a break. I am fed up on those idiots.
-Ishira, are you going to talk with him about Beck, or introduce him to us? Asked Nick
-Oh, right. Kiryo, these are my friends. Yachiro Kurosatsu, Arianna Shi'ura, Carter Reitoko and Nick Menelaydis. Guys, this is Kiryo Kurosaki, my old friend from Astar City.
-Pleased to meet you, said Carter.
-Hello, said Arianna.
-What's up? Asked Yachiro
-How are you? same as Carter, said Nick.
-Fine. Thank you all. I am really glad Ishira managed to make new friends. But that was expected… She no longer has a monster beside her.
-What does he mean? Asked Carter.
Suddenly, they heard a thunder. Dark clouds were gathering in the sky.
-Oh, a storm is coming, said Ishira. Better continue the conversation in my house. Carter, Nick, are you coming?
-Nah, we have some work to do. Let's meet in school! Said Carter.
The four friends walked home. Luckily, they were indoors before the storm starts.
-So, Kiryo, said Ishira. How come did your parents move here.
-Well, I guess they just found a better job, I guess.
-Waait, said Ishira. How do I know you actually ARE Kiryo Kurosaki. Show me.
Kiryo took out of his Duel Disk a Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon card. It had a giant scar starting from the top-right corner going to the bottom left.
-Yup, you are Kiryo Kurosaki. You have the scarred Dark Rebellion.
-Of course I do. I would never abandon that card. He is very eager to face off with you, you know…? You have a new deck as I have heard, and would like to test it.
-Bring it! she said, powering up her Duel Disk.
DUEL!
Kiryo's LP 8000 Hand 5
Ishira's LP 8000 Hand 5
-I will start, said Kiryo. I place 1 monster face-down, and then I place 3 cards face-down. I end my turn.
Kiryo's LP 8000 Hand 1
-My turn then, said Ishira, DRAW! (Hand 5/6). I Normal Summon Wyvern (LIGHT/Lv4/[Wyrm]/ATK 1800). Then I Special Summon from my hand Wyvern #2 since I control a Wyvern (WIND/lv4/[Wyrm/Effect]/ATK 1800). Then, thanks to her effect, all Wyverns on the field gain 500 ATK (Wyvern's and Wyvern #2's ATK 1800/2300)
-Battle! Wyvern, attack his face-down monster with Celestial Flash!
Light jumped from the jaws of the Wyvern, striking his face-down monster.
-You flipped face-up my monster, Demon Dragon Ambusher! (DARK/Lv4/[Dragon/Flip/Effect]/DEF 2000). This triggered his effect. During this turn, he cannot be destroyed by battle, also the monster that attacked him gets destroyed, and you take 500 points of damage. Then he turns again to face-down Defense Mode. Ambush Fire!
The card flipped face-up, and a black dragon appeared. It spitted fire from its jaws, destroying Wyvern (Ishira's LP 8000/7500). Then it hid again under the card.
-You have greatly improved from back then… Finally completed that Demon Dragon deck!
-Something like that is expected anyway… After all the help you gave me, abandoning dueling would be a disgrace…
-Well, I guess I will place 2 cards face-down, I end my turn.
-I activate the effect of Demon Dragon Ambusher. During the End Phase: If his effect was activated I can add a DARK Dragon-type monster from my Deck to my hand. I add Van' Dalgyon, the Dark Dragon Lord.
Ishira's LP 7500 Hand 2
-My turn. Draw (Hand 2/3). I activate the Spell Card, Card of Sanctity. We both draw until we have 6 cards in our hands. (Kiryo's and Ishira's Hand 2/6). I then place 1 monster in face-down Defence mode.
-I activate the Trap card, Wyvern Reborn! This card brings back Wyvern from my Graveyard (LIGHT/Lv4/[Wyrm]/ATK 1800/2300) and I also activate Skyfall. This Trap Card destroys any number of cards on the field, up to the number of Wyvern monsters I control. I destroy your two face-down monsters.
-I chain the Counter Trap Card, Demon Dragon Counter! Responds Kiryo. By sending 1 Demon Dragon from my hand and 1 from my Deck to the Graveyard, like Demon Dragon Traitor from my hand and Demon Dragon Bladescale from my Deck, I negate one Summon or Effect, and destroy it.
Two dark shadows resembling the two dragons destroyed Skyfall, then they collided together…
-And, continues Kiryo, since one of my Counter Traps negated your effect, I can Special Summon from my hand Van' Dalgyon [DARK/Lv8/[Dragon/Effect]/ATK 2800)
The two shadows merged together, forming Van' Dalgyon, then, from the bead in his head, a shadowy energy shooted, destroying Wyvern #2 (Wyvern's ATK 2300/1800).
-If I negate a Trap, Van' Dalgyon destroys one of your cards.
-I know, I know. You have this card for a very long time…
-BATTLE! Van' Dalgyon, the Dark Dragon Lord, attack her Wyvern with Underworld Shadow Burst!
Van' Dalgyon shooted shadowy fire from its jaws, destroying Wyvern (Ishira's LP 7500/6500).
-When a Wyvern I control gets destroyed, I can Special Summon from my hand Wyvern Hatchling (LIGHT/Lv2/[Wyrm/Effect]/DEF 0).
An egg appeared in Ishira's field, and a little wyvern hatched from it.
-I place 1 card face-down. I end my turn.
Kiryo's LP 8000 Hand 4
-My turn, DRAW! Shouted Ishira (Hand 5/6). I activate the effect of Wyvern Hatchling. By tributing this little gal I make it grow to a powerful Wyvern from my Deck. Come Magical Wyvern (DARK/Lv4/[Wyrm/Effect]/ATK 1500)! And now her effect kicks in, which adds a Spell Card from my Deck to my hand. I choose Field Spell, Heaven, the Land of Wyverns, which I activate. Now with this all Wyverns I control gain 100 ATK for each monster I control. (ATK 1500/1600).
The whole field transformed, in a bright blue sky with a floor full of clouds.
-Then, since there is a Wyvern monster on my field, I can Special Summon Wyvern Soldier from my hand, which also gives 100 ATK to all Wyverns, and the ability to inflict piercing damage (FIRE/Lv4/[Wyrm/Effect]/ATK 1900/2200) (Magical's ATK 1600/1800). Then, thanks to Heaven's effect, I can add 1 Wyvern from my Deck or Graveyard when I Special Summon one once per turn. I add Wyvern from my Graveyard, which I Summon! (LIGHT/Lv4/[Wyrm]/ATK 1800/2200) (Soldier's ATK 2200/2300) (Magical's ATK 1800/1900). Then I tribute my Magical Wyvern to summon Sky Wyvern (WIND/Lv4/[Wyrm/Effect]/ATK 1800/2200).
The Wyvern got cloaked with strong winds, who changed her from, transforming her to Sky Wyvern
-Now her ability activates, which shuffles 1 card you control to your deck. I choose Van' Dalgyon!
A whirlwind got formed in the battlefield, pushing Van' Dalgyon back to Kiryo's Deck.
-Now, battle. Sky Wyvern, via your special ability, attack Kiryo directly. Sky blast!
A beam of light was shot from the jaws of the Wyvern.
-I activate the Trap card, Taunt! said Kiryo. Now all your monsters must attack the monsters I control.
The direction of the beam changed, targeting his second Defense monster.
-You flipped Demon Dragon Ambusher (DARK/Lv4/[Dragon/Flip/Effect]/ATK 500/DEF 2000), Ambush Fire!
The card flipped face-up, and a black dragon appeared. It spitted fire from its jaws, destroying Sky Wyvern (Ishira's LP 6500/6000). Then it hid again under the card.
-Shoot. Thanks to my Soldier's effect, you also take piercing damage (Kiryo's LP 8000/7800) (Wyvern's ATK 2200/2100) (Soldier's ATK 2300/2200). And now my Soldier Wyvern attacks your Ambusher again, Assault Wing.
-Ambush Fire!
Soldier rushed to face-down Ambusher with his wings and stroke him. The card flipped face-up and Soldier got destroyed. (Ishira's LP 6000/6500) (Kiryo's LP 7800/7600) (Wyvern's ATK 2100/1900).
-Unfortunately, I am forced to attack you also with my Wyvern, so Wyvern, attack his Ambusher again, Celestial Flash!
The card flipped face-up, and Ambusher appeared. It spitted fire from its jaws, destroying Wyvern (Ishira's LP 5500/4900). Then it hid again under the card.
-I then place 2 cards face-down. I end my turn.
-During your End Phase, I add 1 DARK Dragon-type monster from my hand for each time they flipped. I add Demon Dragon Pathfinder, Demon Dragon Enforcer and Red-eyes Darkness Metal Dragon.
Ishira's LP 4900 Hand 3
-Here I go then, said Kiryo. My turn. DRAW! (Hand 7/8). I activate the Spell, Demon Dragon Draw. With this card I discard Pathfinder to draw two cards (Hand 6/8).
Ishira felt a dark energy radiating from one of the cards he drew.
-I flip face-up my two Demon Dragon Ambushers (DARK/Lv4/[Dragon/Effect]/ATK 500). Then I banish the one to Special Summon from my hand Red-eyes Darkness Metal Dragon (DARK/Lv10/[Dragon/Effect]/ATK 2800). I activate the effect of Demon Dragon Traitor in my Graveyard. I banish Bladescale to Special Summon him to your side of the field in Defense mode (DARK/Lv3/[Dragon/Effect]/DEF 0). In sequence, I activate the effect of my Red-eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, who Special Summons Demon Dragon Pathfinder to the field from my hand in Defense mode. (DARK/Lv4/[Dragon/Effect]/DEF 1800). I then Normal Summon Demon Dragon Soldier (DARK/Lv4/[Dragon/Effect]/ATK 1800). After that, I overlay my level 4 Demon Dragon Ambusher with my Demon Dragon Soldier!
The two monsters transformed to shadowy blobs and jumped in a galaxy-shaped portal.
Fangs from pitch-black darkness, rise up against the foolish oppression.
-Xyz Summon, come forth! Rank 4, Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon (DARK/Rk4/[Dragon/Xyz/Effect]/ATK 2500/ORU 2). I then activate its Special Ability, by using one Overlay Unit I halve the ATK of one of your monsters and I add it to its. I use both of them to Traitor (ORU 2/0) . Treason Discharge.
Lightning cloaked the wings of the dragon, and absorbed ATK from Traitor (Traitor's ATK 2000/500 Dark Rebellion's ATK 2500/4000).
-I am not done yet. I target Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon and I tribute both him and Pathfinder.
Dragon King of the fiends, dwelling in the Underworld. Rise from the shadows of your kingdom and destroy my opponents in your devastating fire.
-Evo Summon, come forth! Demon Dragon Netherlord (DARK/Lv7/[Dragon/Evo/Effect]/ATK 2500/4000).
Dark Rebellion absorbed Pathfinder and, in a flash of light, Netherlord appeared.
I activate his effect, by banishing 1 Demon Dragon, like Ambusher from my Graveyard I change the battle position of your monster!
The silhouette of Ambusher appeared in front of Netherlord, and then rushed to Traitor, changing his battle position (DEF 0/ATK 500).
-Battle! Demon Dragon Netherlord, attack Traitor with Demonic Fire Star!
-I activate Mirror Force!
-Useless! Since I summoned Pathfinder this turn, you can't activate Traps when a DARK Dragon-type monster I control attacks.
-Shame on my shitty memory…
The dragon got engulfed in fire. In front of its mouth the fire formed a star, and the star got launched to Traitor.
-Thanks to its effect, the battle damage you take from this battle is halved (Ishira's LP 4900/3150), but my dragon also deals you 300 damage if it destroys one of your monsters in battle. (Ishira's LP 3150/2850).
-Now, Red-eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, attack her directly with Darkness Metal Flare Burst!
The dragon shot a red-black fireball to Ishira, striking her (ishira's LP 2850/50).
-During my Main Phase 2, I activate the Continuous Trap Card, Demon Dragon Soulbond. Since I dealt you damage this turn, I can send 1 Demon Dragon monster from my Deck to my Graveyard. I choose Demon Dragon Gardna, to gain LP equal to its ATK. Gardna has 500 ATK, so I gain 500 LP (Kiryo's LP 7600/8100) and I place 1 card face-down. I end my turn.
Kiryo's LP 8100 Hand 4
-My turn then, DRAW (Hand 3/4)!
Ishira looked at the card she drew. it was Fairy-eyes.
-I start things by activating the Spell Card, Call of the Wyvern. This card summons any Wyvern monster I want from my Deck if you control a monster and I don't, such as Predatorus Wyvern (WIND/Lv6/[Wyrm/Effect]/ATK 2200/2300). I then Normal Summon Wyvern #3 (LIGHT/Lv4/[Wyrm/Effect]/ATK 1800/2000) (Predatorus' ATK 2300/2400), and I use her effect to summon from my Graveyard Sky Wyvern (WIND/Lv4/[Wyrm/Effect]/ATK 1800/2100) (Wyvern #3's ATK 2000/2100) (Predatorus' ATK 2400/2500), and thanks to the effect of #3, Sky gains her effect, which shuffles your Red-eyes Darkness back to your Deck!
-No. I activate the effect of Pathfinder in my Graveyard. I banish it, I negate your effect and I destroy 1 Spell or Trap on the field. I choose your face-down.
Mirror Force got destroyed.
-Well, it doesn't really matter. I target Wyvern #3 and I tribute both her and Sky Wyvern.
Dragon with the majestic eyes that soars in the heavens, I call you to get down here and lend me some of your incredibly strength.
-Evo Summon, come forth, Fairy-eyes Heaven Wyvern (LIGHT/Lv7/[Wyrm/Evo/Effect]/ATK 2500/3000/DEF 2000) (Predatorus' ATK 2500/2400). Now her effect kicks in. If she is Summoned and my LP are lower than yours, she gains ATK equal to the difference (Fairy-eyes' ATK 3000/11050)
A light aura cloaked Fairy-Eyes, raising her ATK.
-Good play Ishira! Shouted Arianna. You got him.
-I then activate the Equip Spell Card, Wyvern Attack Wing. This card gives to a Wyvern a 800 point boost, and destroys any monster battling with Fairy-eyes at the end of the Damage Step. I equip it to Predatorus Wyvern!
Predatorus' wings got sharper (Predatorus' ATK 2400/3200).
-Attack. Fairy-eyes Heaven Wyvern, attack his Netherlord with radiant Celestial burst! And guess what! when Fairy-eyes is battling an Evo monster, she makes its ATK 0 so you lose!
A bright beam of light shooted from the jaws of Fairy-eyes, striking Netherlord and consuming him, creating a thick cloud of smoke on the field. When the smoke wore off, Kiryo was standing on his position, with his LP unharmed.
-Oh, last turn you…
Ishira now had a flashback about the last turn and the Demon Dragon Gardna sent to Kiryo's Graveyard by Soulbound.
-Gardna has an effect that negates all damage from the rest of the turn when banished from the Graveyard…
-Correct. All I had to do is banish it and save my skin.
-Well then, in this case, Predatorus Wyvern, attack his Red-eyes with Hunter's Wing Slash!
Predatorus Wyvern slashed Red-eyes with its wings, destroying him.
-I think I will end my turn here. Next turn, I got you!
-My turn, draw (hand 4/5). I activate the effect of Netherlord in my Graveyard. By banishing it and giving up my Normal Summon I bring a DARK Dragon-type monster back from the dead. I choose Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon (DARK/Rk4/[Dragon/Xyz/Effect]/ATK 2500/ORU 0). Then, since I control a DARK Dragon-type monster, I Special Summon Demon Dragon Enforcer from my hand (DARK/Lv4/[Dragon/Effect]/ATK 1500). Then, I target Dark Rebellion and I tribute both it and Enforcer.
Dragon Predator of the Underworld, Flash your lightning through the battlefield, slash our opponents with your fangs of darkness.
-Evo Summon, come forth! Pitch-Black Darkness Abyss Dragon! (DARK/Lv8/[Dragon/Evo/Effect]/ATK 3000)
When Pitch-Black appeared on the field, he got cloaked in a dark aura, and started reacting with Fairy-eyes. She was engulfed in a luminous one.
-Wow! Said Yachiro. That's an Evo monster I haven't seen before.
-Yeah, said Arianna.
-Now my dragon's first ability. One monster on your field loses ATK equal to the difference between our Life Points, if mine are higher when I summon him. Dark Corruption!
Predatorus Wyvern got cloaked in a dark aura, reducing its ATK to 0.
-And I also activate the Trap Card Demon Dragon Curse, which destroys an opponent's monster when its ATK becomes 0 by the effect of my DARK Dragon-type monster, and one DARK Dragon-type monster I control gains ATK equal to the lost ATK!
Predatorus Wyvern got destroyed, and its vital energy got absorbed by Pitch-Black (Pitch-Black's ATK 3000/6200).
-I then activate Pitch-Black's effect, once per turn, I can target 1 Evo monster you control. I halve its ATK, and then Pitch-Black gains ATK equal to that value. Nether Discharge!
The wings of the dragon got surrounded with an azure aura, and then the aura spread, striking Fairy-eyes with lightning (Fairy-eyes' ATK 11050/5525) (Pitch-Black's ATK 6200/11725)
-Wow, said Arianna. Ishira lost…
-Not quite, says Yachiro. If Kiryo attacks Fairy-eyes, his dragon's ATK will become 0, since Pitch-Black is an Evo Monster.
-Oh, right.
-BATTLE! Pitch-Black Darkness Abyss Dragon, Attack to Fairy-eyes and end this duel! Abyssal Lightning Revolt!
The body of the dragon got cloaked with lightning, and rushed towards Fairy-eyes.
-You forget her ability to make the ATK of all Evo monsters 0 Kiryo? Asked Ishira.
-I am not that naïve of a duelist and you know it. Monsters affected by Nether Discharge are stunned and their abilities cannot be activated.
-Truth is, I didn't expect anything less from you.
Once Pitch-Black clashed with Fairy eyes, an explosion of light, followed by a sonic boom filled the room, when it faded, Pitch-Black was alone on the field. (Ishira's LP 50/0)
The field got back to normal, and, behind Kiryo, Pitch-Black appeared, cloaked in a dark and red aura.
-Long time no see, Fairy-eyes, said the Dragon.
Fairy-eyes, who also appeared behind Ishira, responded.
-Same from here Shadowhead. I see you chose to lend your power to a great duelist.
-Same goes for you too!
-Wait, asked Ishira. You two know each other?
-Absolutely, said Fairy-eyes. He is the Drake of Abyss!
-What? Asked Ishira.
-Think a bit, Pitch-Black Darkness ABYSS Dragon, said Pitch-Black. Fairy-eyes HEAVEN Wyvern.
-Oh…
-Hey, Ishira, what's going on? Asked Yachiro.
-Kiryo turned to Fairy-eyes.
-Tell them, she said. They are good people.
-Well, OK, said Ishira. You see, there are 10 Sacred Warriors, tied with the Duel Monster spirits. The three of them serve as the leaders, and they have three dragons, one each. I am one of them and I have the dragon of Heaven, Fairy-eyes. He is the second and has the dragon of Abyss, Pitch-Black.
-And the third? Asked Yachiro.
-The third is the dragon of Earth, you know, between the two.
-And, what are these warriors supposed to do? Asked Arianna.
-Ehm, Fairy-eyes?
-Sorry. I can't tell until all warriors are together.
-Can't tell right now, says Kiryo. But, from what Pitch-Black says, we are going to find out soon.
-How? Asked Yachiro.
-Yeah, how? Asked Ishira.
-Whoops, forgot to tell you, said Fairy-eyes.
-As I was saying, continues Kiryo. We are going to learn soon, because our dragons have clashed, and the clash of the dragons merges their powers so the warriors' monsters will Awaken and, once all of them Awake, the dragons will tell the mission.
-How did he told Kiryo about the Clash and you didn't tell me? Asked Ishira Fairy-eyes.
-Probably he recognized the Wings of Light, and I was sure I have seen his pendant before, but I couldn't remember. Trust me, if I have realized he wore the Fangs of Darkness, I was going to tell you.
-Interesting, said Arianna. Yachiro, aren't you supposed to help me install that new software to my computer today?
-Wait what software?
-Don't you remember? Asked Arianna. That software to help me become a better duelist?
-No, I am sure I don't remember anything.
-Then I will help you remember, let's go now. Bye Ishira! bye Kiryo, see you in school! She said, leaving the room.
-Bye!
They went out of the room and closed the door behind them.
-Good, they are out of here, said Kiryo.
-Why? Asked Ishira.
-Well, you know how I dislike being with other people…
-Does this also apply to me? She asked in a sad expression.
-No… Of course not. You will be always an exception Ishira… Besides, it's not only that. I also wanted to talk about something with you in private.
-About what?
-About the real reason why we left, and a reason to be more careful.
-Why? What happened? she said, sitting on her bed. Kiryo sat next to her.
-Before a couple of months, when Pitch-Black appeared in my deck, I have spent times in my life when I thought I have been watched. At some times, I have seen guys in black clothes taking pictures of me and Pitch-Black or contracting to others, while watching me. We got here to find our peace and quiet, and, what a coincidence, YOU are also part of the Sacred Warriors.
Ishira looked at him with a kind of seductive look…
-I think it's not a coincidence, I guess fate wanted us to meet again. These years alone should have been really painful, and I hate myself for leaving you behind…
-It is not like you had a choice, but this is getting out of topic. You ought to be more careful. Don't use Fairy-eyes too much. If your only trump card is that I can give you some from my collection.
-No, it's fine.
-Good. Also: NEVER be alone. If your mother leaves house for work, call me or one of your friends, or, maybe, all of us. The more the safer we will all be.
-Don't worry, I will.
-I am sure you will..
Then, as if guided by intict, their heads got closer to each other…
Suddenly, they heard a sound. Kiryo took out his phone from his Jacket.
-My father. He is telling me to go back to the house. It is not far, I can walk to it.
-Why don't you take your own advice? Instead of walking in the dark streets all by yourself, why don't you stay here for the night? You know… like old times. My mother still has the folding bed. I can tell her to take it down from the attic.
-We are not like before Ishira. As much as it saddens me, we have really come apart from each other. Besides, we are much older. Things are not that innocent anymore.
-With that logic, neither they were when we were 13, three years earlier. C'mon, do you know how much I was longing about those times? These conversations we had together were one of my favorite things about our friendship. Besides… she said with a playful look. It is the perfect chance to make up for all those years.
-I am not going to make you change your mind, am I?
-Nope!
A Duel Runner parked in an alley, outside Ishira's house. On it, a guy with a helmet was talking to his phone.
-This is SDL-1. Great Duel Energy located. Dragons Clashed-Repeat, Dragons Clashed.
-Excellent, answered the other voice on the phone.
-Both targets identified. Names: Ishira Yuria, Kiryo Kurosaki.
-Great work, proceed…
-Here is CP-1. Everything goes according to plan. The two dragons clashed, and the rest of the warriors will Awaken soon…
-Good. Will you need some help?
-Not yet, not until the others make their move. Standby.
Next on YGO DW, the Paladin Order:
Jack still can't surpass his defeats, and, desperate, he tries to get back his reputation by entering an underground duel tournament. He loses his first match and thinks of getting rid of his deck, when a shady character approaches him and gives him two special cards…
