Ok, also, there is a bit of Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's going on in here. Not ther characters, just the monsters. Caitlin has the Junk Synchron Monster in her deck. She, like Yugi and Joey, is extremely hard to defeat. She will duel later in this chapter. Some of the cards I made up myself, and she will have the deck that I use in real life. Caitlin will be using cards like Red-Eyes, Dark Magician, and some others. She'll be using my deck that I have in real life. So don't be surprised if you hear familiar names. But her favorite card is Magician's Valkyrie, not Dark Magician. In the past, Valkyrie was Caitlin's ancestor's spirit monster, like Dark Magician was for the Pharaoh.
Chapter Seven
"Take a good look Pharaoh. The Seal of Orichalcos now surrounds us. Hmhmhm. It's power now courses through Obelisk, strengthening him to an even higher attack. Your monsters are nothing, and are just little pests in his shadow," said Gurimo. It was true. Obelisk had 4500 attack points, while Valkyrion only had 3500.
What options do I have left?... thought the Pharaoh.
At the Game Shop
"Did you hear that Cosmo?"
"Yeah, I did. What do you think it was?"
"I don't know, but let's go find out," said Caitlin.
The two girls went outside, leaving Cheese to guard their friend. They heard the same laugh as they went outside.
"Ah, Caitlin, look over there."
"What is it?"
"I'm your worst nightmare," said the voice.
"Fine, if it's a duel you want, it's a duel you'll get," said Caitlin.
She stepped outside with her deck and disk, and got ready to fight.
"Let's duel!"
"It's time to get this party started!" said Caitlin.
The Duel Had Begun…..
Back atop the Building
"There is nothing you can do now Pharaoh. Your life points will be destroyed very soon, and all at the hands of our very own creature," said Gurimo. All that the Pharaoh could do for now was wait for the man to make his next move, while his four friends watched the battle to see how it would progress.
"Who knew that the God who brought you so much glory would be the one to destroy you, and it starts right now," he said as Obelisk roared loudly.
"Now Obelisk, Attack with you mighty Fist Of Fate!" yelled Gurimo.
Obelisk did what the user told him, and nailed Valkyrion. The Pharaoh's life points then went down to 2000.
Yugi: 2000
Gurimo: 2200
"Yugi," yelled Tea as she watched her friend.
"It'll take more than that to keep my buddy from losing," said Joey.
"Yeah, that's right. No way can you beat Yugi," said Amy.
"Yeah, that's right, ya freak," said Tristan.
"He. There's not a God monster in your deck that can even match, much less defeat the unparalleled power of Obelisk," said Gurimo.
He's right. Obelisk is stronger than ever now thanks to that Orichalcos magic card… thought Yugi.
"Hmhm. Ugh," said Gurimo. His vision started to get blurry, but he quickly shook it off.
"Looks like someone needs a rest," said the red-haired male.
"The boss warned us that the God Cards and the Orichalcos might not mix so well, didn't he?" said Valon to his comrades.
"Yeah, that's right. But that fellow is just getting to old for this stuff," said the red-haired male.
"Well, that's why we made him duel the Pharaoh first, right? So that way he could test the Pharaoh's strength," said the blonde-haired male.
I have an idea that just might work yet… thought Yugi.
"Now I'll activate the magic card Graceful Charity. This card allows me to draw three new cards from my deck, so long as I send to cards to the graveyard after I draw," said Yugi. An angel appeared on the field, and activated her affect.
Excellent, there may be hope for me yet… he thought. The three cards he drew were Gazelle, the King of Mythical Beasts, Dark Magician, and Dark Renewal. "Next, I shall summon Gazelle, the King Of Mythical Beasts to the field in defense mode. Then I'll also place one card on the field face down. That ends my turn."
At the Game Shop
"Well, since I have manners, ladies first," said Caitlin.
"Haha. Very funny Missy," said the hunter.
"At least I have a sense of humor," she said.
"You can go first," said the hunter.
"Well, it seems I've been proven wrong," said Caitlin.
"First, I'll place three cards face down on the field. Then I'll activate Jar Of Greed. This allows me to draw one new card," said Caitlin.
"Huh, big deal," said the hunter.
"Said the man in the weird outfit," said Caitlin. "Then, I'll activate White Dragon Ritual by tributing a card from my hand to the graveyard. That allows me to summon Paladin Of White Dragon to the field. Also, I have one card left in my hand, and its ability allows me to summon it to the field if it's the only card in my hand. So come forth, Swift Gaia, the Fierce Knight!" yelled Caitlin. On her side of the field appeared a white dragon with a blue tail, and on its back was a man wearing green armor with a spear in his hand. The other monster was a purple horse with a man on his back wearing blue armor with two spears, one in each hand.
"Hmm, interesting move. But your skills don't even come close to mine. Before I do anything else at all, I'll activate this card, called The Seal Of Orichalcos!" said the hunter.
All of a sudden, a bright light surrounded the field, and enveloped them. It threw Cosmo back with its tremendous force.
"Cosmo!" yelled Caitlin.
"Don't worry, I'm okay," said Cosmo.
"What's going on? Tell me!" said Caitlin.
"This seal is your demise. It allows my monsters an extra boost to make them stronger. And also, It allows me to have ten monsters on the field instead of five," said the hunter.
"No way!" yelled Caitlin.
"Yes way. I summon Dimensional Alchemist in defense mode. And his ability is unique. It allows me once per turn if I choose to remove from play the top card of my deck. I will skip it this turn. Then I shall place two cards face down on the field. It's your turn now," said the hunter.
"About time," said Caitlin. "First, I'll summon Big Shield Gardna to the field in defense mode. Next, I'll activate the magic of Card Of Sanctity. This allows us to each draw until we are both holding six cards in our hand. Then I activate the magic card, Dark Core, It allows me to remove one face up monster on your side of the field from the game. I chose the only monster you have on your field. Say goodbye to you Alchemist," said Caitlin. The hunter's Alchemist monster then disappeared from the field. "And last, but not least, first Paladin, the Gaia, attack his life points directly!" yelled Caitlin to her monsters. Paladin attacked successfully, taking out a big chunk.
Caitlin: 4000
Hunter: 2100
"Yeah, great job Caitlin!" yelled Cosmo.
"Hmm, very impressive. But you can't last long. I activate the trap card Sakuretsu Armor. This card destroys your currently attacking monster. So, say goodbye to Gaia," said the hunter. Before he could cause any damage, Gaia disappeared from the field.
"Hmm, not bad. It turns out you are better than I first thought," said Caitlin to her opponent.
"I'll place one card face down, and call it quits for now," said Caitlin.
"Hmm, you are good, but I'm better. First, I'll summon Exiled Force in attack mode. Its special ability allows me to tribute it to destroy one monster on your side of the field. I choose your Big Shield Gardna. Then, I'll activate Mystical Space Typhoon, which gets rid of one card on your side of the field. I choose the far left card. Then I activate Lightning Vortex. It allows me to destroy all face up monsters on your side of the field as long as I discard one card. Then, lastly, I'll activate Call of the Haunted. It lets me bring back one monster from beyond the grave. I choose Exiled Force. Now attack her directly!" said the Hunter.
Caitlin: 2500
Hunter: 2100
Flying Over The City
"Sonic, do you see that?" asked Tails.
"Yeah, I do. It looks like the other one we saw," said Sonic.
"Yeah, but which one should we follow?" asked Knuckles.
"Let's just follow the original path," said Chris. "The other one could be a fake," said Chris.
"He's right. Let's just stick to our original path," said Tails.
"All right, let's go!" The three guys then stuck to their original course and kept flying.
Let's hope whatever's out there will lead us to the girls… thought Sonic.
Back at the Shop
"Well, do you remember when you played that seal of yours?" asked Caitlin.
"Yes. Why?" asked the hunter.
"Because it's not going to be around for long. This play will end it. First, I'll activate Dust Tornado. This destroys your Call Of The Haunted Trap, and your monster as well. Now finally, I'll activate Monster Reborn, and Monster Reincarnation. This allows me to bring back two monsters total. I'll bring back my Dark Magician and my Dark Magician Girl. I now tribute them both to summon the almighty Sorcerer of Dark Magic. Now attack his life pints directly!" yelled Caitlin. The hunter was then defeated. The seal enveloped him, and his soul was taken.
"You won't get away with this. Dartz will beat you and take your relatives soul for good!" yelled the hunter. Then he was gone.
What could that mean? The Pharaoh's soul? What does he need that for? And who is this Dartz guy?... thought Caitlin.
"Hey Caitlin, that was awesome!" said Cosmo.
"Yeah, it was," said Caitlin.
"Well, we should go back inside now, shouldn't we? That way we can check in on Shauna, and so you can rest," said Cosmo.
"Yeah, ok," said Caitlin as she followed Cosmo inside.
I wonder what that guy could've meant…. thought the confused girl.
Back atop the Building
"Where was I? Oh yes, I was just about to attack you again," said Gurimo. "Obelisk the Tormentor, attack!"
Obelisk nailed Gazelle, and destroyed him from the field.
"Aww man, now Yugi's got no monsters on the field to protect his life points," said Joey.
"Yeah, and with that God Card on the field, who knows what they are going to do next?" said Amy.
That's what I am worried about. That and Yugi… thought Tea.
"Pharaoh, the age of destruction is here, the world will be shrouded with darkness, and your soul will be used to feed the great beast that devastates man kind," said Gurimo.
"What do you mean by that?" asked the Pharaoh.
"Hehehe, the great beast is finally awakening from its ancient slumber, but in order to complete what it needs to, it needs to absorb a lot of souls," said Gurimo.
"That sounds oddly familiar," said Tea.
"Yeah, where did we hear that big mumbo jumbo before? Ah!" said Joey.
Flashback
"Hehehe, the age of destruction is here," said Weevil.
"Soon, your souls will be offered to the great beast," said Rex.
End Flashback
"Who are you, and how do you know all these events will come to pass as you say they will?" asked the Pharaoh.
"Someone sure has a lot of questions," said Valon from above where he was standing with his two counterparts.
"Hey, its those biker who stole your cards Yugi," said Joey.
"Yeah, Joey's right," said Amy.
"Who are you guys anyway?" asked Tea.
"Like we said, we're soul collectors," said the blonde-haired male. He held up two cards with the pictures of Rex and Weevil on them, surrounded by the Seal.
"And for your information, I have two unfortunate souls right here in my hand," said the blonde-haired male.
Those guys can actually trap people's souls inside cards? That's just like what Pegasus did to Kaiba, Mokuba, and Grandpa. How did these guys aquire that kind of power?... thought the Pharaoh.
"Hehe, the sooner you start your next turn, the sooner I can have Obelisk eliminate the rest of your life points," said Gurimo.
"Obelisk is powerful, but he's not unbeatable, and I intend to prove that right now with this next card," said the Pharaoh as he drew his next card.
"Don't forget hunter, that card belongs to me, so I am all too familiar with all its strength and weaknesses," said Yugi.
"You tell him Yugi," said Amy.
"What weaknesses?" asked the hunter.
"I'll show you by activating Monster Reborn in order to bring back my Valkyrion, The Magna Warrior," said Yugi as his monster reappeared on the field.
"In case you haven't noticed Pharaoh, Obelisk has already defeated that monster," said Gurimo.
"Yes, but I've decided to give my Valkyrion a second chance, so say goodbye to your God Card," said Yugi.
"What do you mean? My God Card is clearly stronger than your card," said a confused Gurimo.
"Where is Yugi going with this?" asked Amy.
"To be honest, even I don't know," said Joey.
"Perhaps, but you've forgotten that my Valkyrion is made up of several monsters, not just one. Now Valkyrion, disassemble!" said Yugi.
After Valkyrion finished, back on the field was Alpha with 1400 points, Beta with 1700, and Gamma with 1500.
"Now I have one more card to play. Its called Brave Attack, sending my warriors into battle!" said Yugi.
Alpha, Beta, and Gamma became surrounded by a glowing red aura, and charged toward Obelisk.
"Now Alpha, attack!"
"That's all?"
"No, Beta, attack!"
"It's not working Pharaoh. You're even more nearsighted than I thought," said Gurimo.
"I think you need to take a closer look because I see a rather large mark across your Egyptian God's chest," said Yugi. Sure enough, thanks to Alpha and Beta, there was a glowing blue scar right across the middle of Obelisk.
"But how? Your puny magnet monsters can't even match the divine strength of my Egyptian God Card," said Gurimo.
"True, but I played my Brave Attack Trap Card. Therefore, the attacks of my monsters get added together, enabling them to take down Obelisk as a team," said Yugi.
"Oh no," said Gurimo.
"Let's see, his 1400 attack points from his Alpha," said Joey.
"Plus his 1700 from his Beta," said Amy.
"Don't hurt yourself, that's a total of 3100 attack points already," said Tea.
"She's right," said Amy.
"Your Obelisk has a total strength of 4500, and I need 1500 more points to beat him, and that's exactly what I have left," said the Pharaoh looking at his Gamma Warrior.
"Hrgh," said Gurimo.
"Go Gamma, destroy Obelisk now!" yelled Yugi.
Gamma charged directly at the mighty God Card, and destroyed it. Obelisk started to crack, and eventually, his whole body fell apart.
"No!" yelled Gurimo.
Yugi: 2000
Gurimo: 2100
"Of course," said Tristan.
"Way to go Yugi," said Amy.
"Nice job Yugi," said Tea.
"Way to show em' buddy," said Joey.
"HE just got lucky," said Valon.
"Heh. He'll need more than luck of he hopes to break the Sea Of Orichalcos," said the blonde-haired male.
"You can say that again," said the red-haired male.
"Hrgh, this duel is far from over," said Gurimo as he stood up. His eyes turned an even darker red, and he appeared even more angry than before.
"I don't need Obelisk to defeat you, and I'll show it by drawing out the true power of my deck with the magic of Card Of Sanctity," said Gurimo.
"Fine, that allows me to draw cards as well," said Yugi.
"That's good. They both have six cards now," said Tea.
"That makes them even now right?" asked Amy.
"No, that guy still has the advantage thanks to that Orichalcos thing," said Joey as Yugi drew his cards.
Yugi took a good look at his cards, and noticed a special one.
"I summon Watapon to the field in defense mode," said Yugi.
"It's still my turn," said Gurimo as Watapon appeared on the field.
"Yes, but Watapons special ability allows me to summon him directly to the field if I draw him by effect of a magic card," said Yugi.
"Haha. That card is useless anyway. If you want a real monster, check out this one. My Warrior Dei Gripher," said Gurimo.
"And thanks to the Orichalcos, it gains another 500 points," said Gurimo, as his monster's attack rose from 1700 to 2200 points.
"You've just activated my trap," said Yugi.
"Go Dark Renewal. This card allows me to sacrfice one of your monsters, as well as one of my own. Thanks to this card, I choose my Dark Magician to bring back from my graveyard," said Yugi as his star card reappeared on the field, with an attack of 2500 points.
"But how could you do that? I didn't even send your Dark Magician Card to the graveyard," said Gurimo.
"You couldn't have, but I did it myself when I played my Graceful Charity magic card," said Yugi.
"Heh, this face-down card is all I need to defend myself," said Gurimo.
"Alright, he's got no monsters on the field. Yugi's really gonna clean out the house now!" said Joey.
"Yeah, show em' who you really are!" yelled Amy to support her friend.
"Attack Dark Magician! Dark Magic Attack! Wipe out the rest of his life points!" yelled Yugi.
"Activate Shield Wall," said Gurimo. On the field appeared four gray statue monsters. One of them got obliterated by the Dark Magician.
"What's that?!" asked the Pharaoh.
"It's quite a handy magic card. It reinforces my defense monsters by four, creating a shield. Your Dark Magician can't even penetrate my life points," said Gurimo.
"Ah," said the Pharaoh.
"Now while that sinks in, I think I'll summon a few more monsters to the field now, by utilizing the power of my bronze knights magic card," said Gurimo.
"Now I can discard three monsters from my hand in order to summon three Bronze Knights to the field," he said. Behind his shield monsters appeared three knights with 500 defense points.
"Wait, something's funny here," said Amy.
"What are you talking about?" asked Tea.
"Wait, I get what she's getting at," said Joey.
"What is she trying to say?" asked Tristan.
"I'm trying to say that you guys told me that in duel monsters, you can only have five monsters on the field right?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Well, I count six right now with those shield monsters," said Amy.
"Hey, she's right," said Tea.
"Yeah, I just counted too, as there is six, not five," said Tristan.
"That's cheatin' pal! Rules say that a player can only have five monsters in play, not six," said Joey.
"Well, you'd better get a new rule book, because I think yours is outdated," said the blonde-haired male biker.
"The Seal Of Orichalcos allows it user to double the amount of monsters allowed on the field," he said.
"No way, that means that guy can have up to ten monsters on the field at one time," said Joey.
"Correct young man, and you can't go through my back row of monsters until you go through my front row first," said Gurimo.
"Oh no," said the Pharaoh.
"And since each of my monsters gets a boost from the Seal, you'll never get past them," said Gurimo.
Now what do I do about that… thought Yugi.
