'Horn = Hope'


Jack O'Donnell was in a big pinch.

"… Don't state my issue so casually."

"M-Master, who are you talking to at a time like this."

Jack O'Donnell and Dark Magician Girl were still trapped in the middle of the construction site. They still tried to fight back against thr Insect Queen that was still chasing after them, however nothing was working.

Jack struck out by firing a machine-nail gun into the Insect Queen. It only served to p*ss it off.

Dark Magician Girl fired her black magic into a scaffolding to knock it over into the Insect Queen. It successfully broke the nail of its leg – and still served to p*ss it off some more.

"Wh-what do we do! I don't want to go to the Cemetary Field! N-not when I'm finally a real life girl! I don't want to lose this lovely body."

"Oi! What the h*ll are you muttering about at a time like this? D—don't let your panic mess with your brain!"

When the Insect Queen rudely interrupted them by splattering a shower of acid-flaring pollen at their hiding spot, incinerating the giant cement truck, the two were caught in a dead checkmate.

It was over.

"… Hey, Dark Magician Girl, you see that?"

"Y-yes! Yes I do Master! Th-that's the light of our hope!"

Jack and Dark Magician Girl were caught in a narrow dead-end with a large concrete wall cutting their exit off, and the Insect Queen crawling in to close the gap for 'feast-on-flesh' distance.

Somewhere far, but close by, a twinkle caught their eye… and it came from a golden horn that happened to be sticking out of a wheelbarrow full of rubble.

"I-it couldn't be… Is it really that card!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Horn of the Unicorn! A Magic Equipment-type Card. It's special effects once applied can increase the ATK of one monster by 700.

"If we can use that Card to power you up, Alice."

"Then I can be a magical Diva with my own magical unicorn!"

Jack O'Donnell tugged at Dark Magician Girl's hair to pull her head out of the fog of being a celebrity.

"It means even a Level 6 Monster like you can trash this Level 7 f**ker."

"… Right… Ahem. Ahem."

The road to their victory had opened before them. Now they had to take the first step in achieving it.

"… Master, I highly doubt the Insect Queen is going to kindly step aside for you to grab a weapon to kill it."

"…"

"…M-Master?"

"HEY COCKROACH! I SMOKED YOUR UNCLE, YOU KNOW THAT!?"

"….. WHAT ARE YOU DOING, MASTEEEEEEEER!?"

The Dark Magician Girl screamed her head off. With good reason, even this narrator is screaming inside.

All Jack O'Donnell did to counter this situation was taking one step forward, took in a deep breath, and trolled the Level 7 Insect Monster in a booming voice.

"JUST THE OTHER DAY, I HELPED MY MOTHER SWAT YOUR AUNTY! I EVEN BAG AND TAGGED A COUPLE OF YOUR COUSINS!"

"… SWEET MAID MARIAN, THE FEAR MADE MASTER GO INSAAAANE!?"

Indeed, only a complete idiot would bad mouth a giant man-eating insect that was hell-bent on leaving nothing but bones and cartilage of this one boy in front of it.

Of course it would lash out – and sink its fangs through the high school boy's body.

… It was so fast, Dark Magician Girl could do nothing but watch as red splattered her body and face. It took 10 full seconds, before she even thought about screaming.

"…. NOW! ALICE!"

"… H-heh?"

The tears hadn't had a chance to fall out of Dark Magician Girl's eyes, and she always snapped out of her shell-shocked comatose from that one simple scream.

Then, she clearly saw the truth of the horrific sight in front of her.

"Darn it aaaaaall, you freaking walking bird feeeeeeeeeeeeeed!"

Jack O'Donnell was bitten, but not devoured. In the last minute, he pulled up a pipe he had picked up and sharpened during his time in running from cover to cover. He had scraped it along the wall, to grind one end to form a short arrow-head.

Right before the Insect Queen could consume his body in one bite, he shoved the sharp pipe up it's mouth and through the ceiling of its palate. Blood gushed out from the creature, all over the ground, Jack's uniform, and splattered some more all over Dark Magician Girl.

It really did look like a fresh scene from a new sequel to a Chainsaw Horror film.

"GET – THAT – HORN – NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!"

"… YES MASTER!"

Dark Magician Girl fully recovered and launched herself through the air. She flew at maximum speed and weaved through the legs of the Insect Queen, ignoring the screams of the creature, Jack's raging how as he kept stabbing the beast, and the wild humming of the wings.

The Insect Queen picked up on their movement, realizing their attmepts. Still stabbed through the mouth, it moved one of its legs to grab at Dark Magician Girl.

Or, at least to pierce he through and through.

"Oi, oi, oi. Where do you think you're looking at, buddy?"

Jack snarled, and stomped his one foot.

It hit a toggle switch on the floor, connected to several high-powered light stands.

*BLINK!*

"GURYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

The Insect Queen let out a horrific scream, receiving the full blast of the high-out put light stands and illumination system that sparked all over the construction sight. It just so happen to target their spotlights directly at the creature's head.

"M-Master! D-don't tell me you thought this through from the beginning!?"

"Who the h*ll do you think I am!? I am Jack O'Donnell, the Lord of Green Flame in the world of Duel Monsters! This stinking bug is 1000 years too early to take me on! Buggeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer!"

"… Welcome back… Master."

And Dark Magician Girl reached out to touch the Horn of the Uni—

*BLOOD*
