Ingredients in a Deck Recipe
Chapter 9: Rare cards are more rarer than Perfectly-cooked meals (Part 2)
"Hey Girls! Its that Kuro kid that you dueled yesterday night Jasmine!" Mindy called out as her other two friends instantly got their attention as they watched the Tag Duel that was going to be underway.
"Against a Obelisk? Well, he and his partner are probably going to get crushed." Jasmine said with a mean scoff, folding her arms as she did a unlady-like snort, Alexis on the other hand was more curious than anything else.
"Why are those two even dueling an Obelisk? Shouldn't they be dueling someone in their own dorm? Same goes for Chazz and his friend." Alexis pointed out, her two friends Jasmine and Mindy both shrugged in response.
"I suppose they were being idiots then, Hmph!" Jasmine said with her nose up in the air, being as snobbish as possible, Alexis and Mindy looked at Jasmine with unconvinced looks.
"What? What are you two looking at?" Jasmine questioned her two friends, Alexis crossed her arms before she spoke in a noticeable deadpan in her voice.
"Can you please cut the act Jasmine? I mean, you never treat anyone with this much disdain before, except for Kuro, what gives?" Alexis interrgated her friend, Jasmine refused to budge despite Alexis's stance and tone.
"I don't like his sister, that's all, so in conjunction, I don't like him!" She exclaimed meanly.
"Isn't that a little idiotic? I mean, you're hating him just because you don't like his sister..." Mindy pointed out, Jasmine growled under her breath and refused to even bark back at her friend.
"Whatever, Mindy, at least I can dislike a cute guy like him!" Jasmine venomously hissed back, Mindy gasped from such an insult.
"You take that back! I'm not shallow!" Mindy argued back as she defended herself from Jasmine's mean remark, Alexis looked Jasmine with a smug smile.
"You just said that Kuro was cute, you're SO into him!" Alexis called out the Strawberry Blonde girl, causing Jasmine to gasp from such a statement, Jasmine's cheeks started to blush a pinkish flare as she attempted to justify her words.
"I didn't say that Alexis! I meant, that, in cute...I mean...That he's childish! Yeah! Thats it!" Jasmine said as she folded her arms once again, now sweating beads as Alexis was still unconvinced.
"Wow Jasmine, that's really unusual of you, treating someone bad despite finding him cute!" Mindy said as she booped Jasmine's nose, seeing through Jasmine's abrasive act, Jasmine finally gave up, sighing deeply as she unfolded her arms and her stiff and strong demeanor began to reduce down to her more, normal stature.
"Okay, I admit it! I think I have a crush on Kuro Helheim okay?! Are you two happy!?" Jasmine exclaimed in a over dramatic but justified tone, earning several giggles and chuckles from her two friends, causing Jasmine to growl in annoyance.
"Is that why you spend time with him at night nearby the lake?" Mindy pointed out, The Strawberry Blonde of the trio of multi-colored Obelisk girls gasped loudly once again, her eyes widened as she slowly got close to Mindy to say in a intimidating voice.
"What did you just say?!" Jasmine said with a threatening tone, Mindy only giggled in a playful manner from Jasmine's anger.
"I mean, it was quite obvious, both yesterday and the day before that, we both saw you sneak out of your dorm room, fully clothed, we knew for a fact that you weren't just stopping by for a late night swim in the bath house, so me and Mindy decided to investigate, we decided to follow you, until we saw you have your dinner date with Kuro." Alexis explained to the Strawberry Blonde, Jasmine finally admitted defeated as the teasing was becoming a little bit to much for the girl, sighing in a fatigued manner as she slumped down on her seat and looked down right dissipated
"Fine you win...Don't tell Miss Fontaine...Seriously, its the start of the first semester and I don't want to be some kind of boy-chaser...And it wasn't a dinner date at all Kuro just owed me dinner!" Jasmine said as her two friends giggled at Jasmine's hot-headedness and insistence that she wasn't dating the Sushi-themed Duelist
"Say what you want Jasmine, your secret is safe with us, but we really need to work on your hair if it means making Kuro even more awkward around you!" Mindy said with a girlish giggle, Jasmine scoffed as she touched her poofy Strawberry Blonde hair, not wanting to change it and liking it as it is.
"Don't say that Mindy, Jasmine just needs to be herself, Kuro is doing the same, so why can't she be?" Alexis protested as Jasmine groaned in annoyance, clearly being ruffled by the talk about Kuro and herself.
"It wasn't a date in the slightest you bigots, you guys need to listen to me!" Jasmine said aloud as her two friends didn't bother to following her wants.
"We're listening Jasmine, and what we're hearing is that you have a crush on Kuro!" Mindy teased causing Jasmine to growl once again, Jasmine was already getting tired of his friends taunting, she huffed loudly before she simply focused on the duel that Kuro was participating in.
'C'mon Kuro, if you can beat me, then you can beat those two Obelisk Clowns!' Jasmine said inwardly, giving an expletive look for the Sushi-Samurai Duelist as she silently cheered the Sushi Duelist on.
Duel Start!
The Team of Jaden Yuki and Kuro Helheim
Vs.
The Team of Chazz Princeton and Raizou
"Wait, so...How does a tag duel work...Precisely?" Kuro asked as he scrambled to get his full hand ready and working, the two obelisk students laughed at Kuro's incompetence and lack of knowledge when it came to dueling in this particular format.
"Fine, I'll teach you since you probably slept through class!" Raizou attempted to insult the Sushi-themed Dueling Novice.
"I never do that...But alright..." Kuro attempted to defend himself but failing to do so due to his quiet voice and struggling tone.
"Well anyway, first, one of you slackers goes, then we go, then the other person in your dingy duo goes! Simple! Easy and easy to understand! Also, don't forget that instead of the usual 4000 lifepoints, we duel with 8000 lifepoints." Raizou said as he drew his hand of cards with a single clean motion.
"8000 lifepoints? Thats a little...Strange..." Kuro added on, never dueling a duel with 8000 lifepoints before.
"I'll go first since I deserve to!" Chazz said meanly before snorting out a quick snuffle of laughter.
"I'm fine with that Chazz, you and your crony will be needing the first turn anyway!" Jaden mused before laughing at his own little remark, Kuro could only sigh deeply in return as the two Obelisk Blue Students ire's were raised from his sharp taunt.
"Whatever Loser, I first play the continuous spell card: Frontline Base! With this card, I can special summon level four or lower union monster from my hand each turn! So I'll special summon Y-Dragon Head! (LV: 4, ATK: 1500, DEF: 1600)" The Dragon appeared with a metallic-infused roared, beating out its glider-like wings before it assumed a more dormant stance.
"I then normal summon X-Head Cannon to the field! (LV: 4, ATK: 1800, DEF: 1500)" The Leg-less Artillery machine appeared right beside his dragon-machine comrade.
"I end my turn with a face down, your move, you Slifer Slacker!" Chazz with a mean laugh, Kuro blinked, not really knowing who Chazz was referring to.
"I guess I'll go-" The Sushi-Samurai-Themed Duelist was quickly interrupted by his Partner's word, almost as if Jaden was not willing to work with him.
"Time to get my game on! I draw!" Jaden said with a heroic and highly inspiring tone, drawing a card with a extreme sense of energy and gusto.
"Alright! I'm going to make my turn simple and quick, I summon Elemental Hero Clayman in defense mode! (LV: 4, ATK: 800, DEF: 2000)" The Clay golem monster materialized on the field, kneeling down and putting his massive hands in front of itself in a defensive stance.
"I end my turn!, your move Raizou!" Jaden concluded as the bulky and short-haired duelist got himself ready.
"You made a grave mistake! I'll use Chazz's frontline base to special summon A-Assault Core (LV: 4, ATK: 1800, DEF: 200) from my hand!" The crowd that was watching both gasped as they saw the new monster appearing right beside Chazz's monster, the scorpion-like battle robot began to light up with life as it readied for battle.
"What kind of new card is that?" Kuro asked, Raizou only laughed at Kuro's words, mocking the Duelists confusion.
"A card that you won't ever get! I summon B-Buster Drake in attack mode! (LV:4 ATK: 1400, DEF: 1800)" The New green machine roared out a electric-riddled screech as its laser cannons began to charge up with energy.
"Today is just not your lucky day, time to bring out the strongest monster I have! I use Tribute to the doomed, I discard my C-Crush Wyvern to destroy your Clayman!" The Elemental Hero was wrapped in dirtied and disgusting bandages until it was turned to dust.
"And since I have C-Crush Wyvern in our graveyard, I banish all three to form..." The Three ABC robots began to shift and turn, smoke and steam started to release from their hatches and valves as they began to stack over each other, the spectating crowd gasped loudly as they saw the all-new union machines forming and compounding into a single more powerful robot.
"This isn't going to be good!" Jaden exclaimed as Kuro stayed completely quiet as union machine construct was complete, the body was that of all of Assault Core, the right bodypart was that of the Crush Wyvern and the left was of the Buster Drake.
"ABC-Dragon Buster! (LV:8 ATK: 3000, DEF: 2800)" The ABC of Dragon Machines silently waited for a command, Kuro could only look at jaden with a sense of disappointment, he could've done some more, but Jaden thought that placing a single monster was good enough.
"Now, all of you! Attack These Slackers directly!" Raizou commanded as he pointed a finger at the Slifer Students, Jaden and Kuro groaned in pain as the various Union Machine monsters from ABC to X and Y began to blast the two red-wearing students with a variety of energy blasts.
Jaden and Kuro's LP: 1300
"How is this fair? How can Jaden and Kuro duel if they don't know what they're dueling against?" Alexis said in protest from such a unfair duel the three Obelisk girls watched, Jasmine gave her blonde-haired friend a look.
"Isn't that, a little silly Alexis? That's sort of half the fun in dueling! You never know what kind of deck your opponent is going to use, its your job to find out yourself, thinking on the spot Alexis, you're better than me at that." Jasmine said back with folded arms and a slight glare as her attention from the duel was shattered by Alexis's words.
"Hah! this is just way to easy! I end my turn!" Raizou said as he and his partner Chazz laughed in amusement.
"Not bad..." Was all Kuro said as he drew a card from his deck, despite the heavy difference in lifepoints, Kuro looked more defiant than ever, a new found sense of will started to blaze within like some sort of lighter fluid-infused furnace.
"But not good enough...My move!" Kuro growled under his breath, he stood tall, his head held up high, Jaden was also looking more determined than before.
"I start my turn with Sushi Samurai-Sashgiri Chanbara! (LV: 4, ATK: 1700, DEF: 1000)" The Samurai of Sashimi appeared with its sticky-rice skin and its seaweed-tied armor, it clanged it two Chopsticks swords together in an irritating but attention-gathering manner, annoying the audience greatly with its loud antics.
"Luckily, since you allowed every monster you have to sit in attack mode, I can get a free kill with Sashgiri, I attack your Y-Dragon Head! Giri! Giri! Slasher!" The Samurai of Sashimi quickly did a series of wide but swift slashes to the Dragon head, slicing the robotic dragon into a scrap heap of pieces.
Chazz and Raizou's LP: 7800
"Hah! Your stupid living piece of food will soon get crushed by our Monsters once you end your turn!" Chazz said, clearly unfazed by the casualty and the slight loss of lifepoints.
"Time to bring out a more refreshing meal for you two snobs...I use Sashgiri's effect! I can tribute this Samurai to fusion summon one level six or lower Sushi Samurai Warlord from my extra deck, so I can only pick...Sushi Samurai Warlord-Himi-Momo-Ko! (LV: 5, ATK: 1900, DEF: 1300)" Sashgiri suddenly stood still for only a moment, before quickly turning into the petals of the drifting peach blossoms that Himi-Momo-Ko arrived in.
"Still weaker than whatever we can throw at you, you loser!" Raizou continued to mock, Kuro only glared in return, still enacting his turn.
"Himi-Momo-Ko, destroy Chazz's X-Head cannon!" The Princess of Peaches only nodded in obedience, twirling around her umbrella against the X-Head cannon, causing it to shatter from the shear force of the wind, Chazz gasped as he saw two cards from his deck be blown into the graveyard.
"Similar to giving out tips in a meal, its sometimes optional...But most of the time, its mandatory!" Kuro recited as Chazz growl in annoyance.
'Enough with the food terminology! It isn't even clever so stop Kuro!' Jasmine thought with a irritated frown on her face as she could practically feel the smirk that Kuro was giving as he was trying to connect cooking with Dueling.
"Unlike my Tag Partner, I'm actually going to set two cards and end my turn." Kuro finished as he glanced at Jaden with a light glare, Jaden could only laugh awkwardly as a way to recuperate.
"Whatever, my turn, Draw!" Chazz said with a yell, with a single look from the card he drew, his wicked smile only grew wider in delight.
"Go! Z-Metal Tank (LV: 4 ATK: 1500, DEF: 1300)" The One-eyed Yellow tank-treading robot rolled in almost nonchalantly as it sputtered lightly.
"And thank you, you food-obsessed Slacker! I use my trap card! Call of the Haunted to get back my X-head cannon!" Kuro could only frown in annoyance as the sight of the X-head cannon returned to the battlefield.
'Why must I move two steps forward...And then my opponent takes like, five steps forward?' Kuro internally questioned himself in a wallowing tone.
"Then I use frontline base's effect again, I special summon ANOTHER Y-Dragon Head from my hand!" Similar to clockwork, the red-tinted Metal dragon materialized with its comrades.
"Hahaha! Its morphing time! I banish all three of my monsters to create XYZ-Dragon cannon! (LV:8 ATK: 2800, DEF: 2600)" The three Last letter Union monsters began to stack on each other, Metal tank forming as the bottom and as the legs, Dragon Head forming as the mid section and the metaphorical glue that holds the union fusion together, and then Head Cannon forming as the final and top part of the XYZ monster, the XYZ union fusion posed when it was finally done stacking on one another.
"Wow, two monsters...This isn't good." Jaden summed up as Kuro silently stood his ground against the two, despite the sight of the two powerful monsters, he still remained vigilant.
"You said it Jaden..." Kuro replied back as Chazz looked absolutely ready to destroy the two Slifer Red Students.
"ABC Dragon Buster! Destroy that rotten fruit!" Chazz ordered as the Gold, Green and Blue Union Fusion Machine complied, readying up an glowing sphere of energy to blow Kuro's monster into smithereens.
"Not so fast, I use my continous trap card! Sushi Samurai-Honor Guard! Since a fusion monster is being targeted for an attack, I can special summon One Sushi Samurai from my deck, to take the attack for her, so I pick, my Sushi Samurai-Spamurai to block the attack for her!" Kuro shouted as he revealed the trap card, showcasing an art of a Sushi Samurai- Komiso monk, taking a shower of arrows for a Wasanobi, the Samurai of Spam appeared onto the field in a defensive stance, taking the hit for Himi-Momo-Ko.
"Since I special summoned Spamurai, I can add one Sushi Samurai monster from my deck to my hand." Kuro said as he quickly got out one specific Sushi Samurai from his deck, adding it to his hand.
"Grrr! So you can just keep negating my attacks?!" Chazz questioned with a glare on his face, Kuro glared back but at least nodded to the Obelisk Blue student.
"As long as you have a meal on your plate, you must eat." Kuro responded coolly, Chazz only growled in retort.
"Enough with your stupid sayings, your lucky that I don't have any cards in my hand, I would've just used XYZ's effect to destroy your trap card AND your stupid monster, I end!" Chazz said with a scoff as Jaden began his turn, drawing a card from his deck
"My turn! I hope you're not to mad Kuro, I got the card I need to do something really awesome! I use polymerization! I fuse my Elemental Hero Burstinatrix and my Elemental Hero Avian to get...Elemental Hero Flame Wingman! (LV: 5, ATK: 2100, DEF: 1800)" The heavy-burning Elemental Hero materialized from the quelling fires of the two elemental heroes respectively.
"I then activate my Field spell, Skyscraper!" Jaden revealed the field spell card, instantly, the whole dueling field was now in the middle of a dark and crime-ridden city.
"Now, with Skyscraper, whenever a Elemental Hero attacks a monster that has more attack points than they have, they gain a boost of 1000 attack points!" Raizou and Chazz gasped as Jaden explained the powerful effect of Skyscraper.
"Wait, then that means..." Raizou began to realize, Jaden smiled as his Flame Wingman seemed ready to battle.
"I can destroy your ABC Dragon Buster! Attack Flame Wingman! Heroic Flare!" The Flaming Superhero's crimson-colored Dragon-like arm cannon charged up a fire ball before blasting the ABC Dragon Buster into the scrap heap.
Chazz and Raizou LP: 7700
"Flame Wingman's effect activates! You take damage equal to ABC's attack points!" Raizou gasped as both he and Chazz were blasted by a wide stream of flames from Flame Wingman, their lifepoints decreasing even more so than before.
Chazz and Raizou LP: 4700
"How's that for a better turn Kuro? Anyway, I end my turn with a face down!" Jaden said, giving a thumbs up to the Sushi-themed Duelist, Kuro only responded to Jaden's tongue and cheek action with a uncooperative nod.
"You'll pay for that you Slacker! My turn!" Raizou said with exclamation, drawing a card with extra effort, he smiled from the result of the card he drew.
"I'll discard my A-Assault Core to destroy your Skyscraper Field Spell using XYZ Dragon Cannon's effect!" Raziou said with a laugh as he sent his Assault Core card to his graveyard, The XYZ Union Fusion Machine started to charge up its two artillery cannons, before blasting the many nightly-basted buildings with its gun fire, reducing the whole city into a rubble as the dueling field transformed back into the normal dueling field.
"Uh oh, this isn't going to be good..." Jaden summed up once again as Raizou continued to explain his move during his turn.
"Since I sent Assault Core to the graveyard, I can add one Union Machine monster from my deck to my hand...So I'll pick a B-Buster Drake!" Raizou selected from his deck as he pulled it out of his deck from his duel disk to add the Machine card to his hand.
"Now, I attack your Flame Wingman with my friend Chazz's XYZ Dragon Cannon!" Jaden gasped in disbelief as his Elemental Hero was blasted to smithereens by the powerful XYZ monster, however, when the smoke cleared and the dust settled, Flame Wingman was still there, alive and contact.
"What!? What happened!?" Raizou exclaimed as Jaden was even a little bit surprised too, in front of the flaming Elemental Hero was a Sushi Samurai, a Sushi Samurai-Spamurai to be more exact, it shattered to pieces as it couldn't endure the attack.
"I already told you two Obelisk Blues, Sushi Samurai Honor Guard: Whenever a Fusion Monster! gets attacked, I can negate that attack by special summoning a Sushi Samurai from my deck to take the hit, Meals are not always tied to critics, meals are for families and friends all alike!" Chazz glared at his fellow Obelisk Blue, blaming his friend for his lack of knowledge when it came to understanding card effects.
"You Dolt! You just gave that Food-Obsessed Slacker more cards to work with!" Chazz said angrily, Raizou only huffed in response before defending his case.
"Aw shut up Chazz! I reckoned you would've done the same! So shush up!" Raizou hissed back.
"Wow! That was a mistake if I had to see one!" Mindy pointed out, giggling at her little remark, Jasmine and Alexis joined in her laughter.
"Looks like those two are all style, but no substance!" Jasmine continued, building up on the teasing of the two Obelisk Blue Students.
'Unlike someone I know...' A thought came up in Jasmine's head, to which she quickly brushed it off but didn't deny.
"That's right, I'll quickly grab one of my new Sushi Samurais from my deck to my hand." Kuro said as he selected a single specific card within his food-themed deck.
"Grrr...I end my turn, your move." Kuro silently drew a card from the top of his deck as he started his turn, his stance was stoic and cold as he looked at hand for only a moment, not wanting to stall the duel with some deep strategic thinking.
"I play my new Sushi Samurai Monster! Sushi Samurai-Ninatto!" The Sushi Samurai appeared with a puff of smoke, instantly the noses of the Obelisk Blue Students and Jaden's scrunched up as they smelled the scent of fermented beans, being strong, sharp and undelightful to smell.
"Ugh! That smells worse than Pharoh's breath!" Jaden lamented as he pinched his nose from the sight and scent of the Ninjatto of Natto, the Ninja was thin and tall akin to the Fellow Ninja Wasanobi but being lower in stature and a little bit more wide in frame, his blade was brown like fermented soy beans and straight like the true sword of the Ninja, his brown strands of sticky sinew acted as its muscle and body as it was covered in dried seaweed wrap, the wrap acting as the traditional Ninja's garb and cowl.
(Sushi Samurai-Ninatto, Earth, Fiend, Effect Monster, LV: 2, ATK: 0, DEF: 500)
The Ninjatto of Natto did a pose as it unsheathed its sword, waiting for his owner's command.
"Similar to the Shinobi was Wasabi, Ninatto can attack directly, and he can gain attack from his fallen comrades, but instead of just banishing a monster from the graveyard, I'll just discard my Onigiri Yokai!" Kuro revealed the Rice-ball wearing demon from his hand as he sent the card to the graveyard, in a similar motion to Wasanobi, the Ninjatto of Natto held its sword up in the air, a smelly but powerful aura glowing around it.
"Now, with a boost of 1900 points, I'll attack directly!" The Ninatto laughed devilishly as it disappeared in a puff of smoke, before quickly reappearing right in front of Chazz, he yelped in surprise before he was slashed by the Ninjatto of Natto.
"Whatever! We're still leagues above you!" Chazz said in a gruel defiance.
Chazz and Raizou's LP: 2800
"Not until you realize the disgusting smell of Natto! His second effect activates! Since he attacked, he's forced into defense mode, which is good for us to be honest since Honor Guard can't protect the normal Sushi Samurai monsters!" Chazz and Raizou growled as the Ninatto sat on the ground, trying to look like it was defending but in reality it just covering its new-found fatigue.
"I set my Himi-Momo-Ko to defense mode too and I end my turn." Kuro finished as it was Chazz's turn.
"Finally you're done, time to completely destroy you! I use my spell card, Premature Burial!" Chazz revealed the card with a twisted smile on his as suddenly, from the ground, ABC Dragon Buster suddenly started to arose, it lighted up with life as it started to move, shaking off the graveyard dirt as it bellowed out a metallic roar.
"With the cost of 800 lifepoints, I can bring back ABC Dragon Buster from the graveyard!" Chazz said with a laugh.
"Now, time to show you all are strongest monster! I fuse my XYZ Dragon Cannon and Raizou's ABC Dragon Buster to create..." The pair of Fusion Union monsters began to disassemble and reform into something greater than ever, the spectators gasped in surprise, never seeing two fusion monsters fusing together! Ever our two Slifer Students were standing there in awe, their jaws dropped and their movement still like ice.
"Holy..." Jaden began, his jaw dropped and his arms slumped.
"...Shit." Kuro finished as the final part of the new ultimate fusion monster finally assembled together.
"A to Z Dragon Buster Cannon!" The Ultimate Fusion Union Machine Monster had an aura of electricity as all three of its dragon heads shot out a stream of light-show worthy beams, making it even more of a spectacle than ever!
(A to Z Dragon Buster Cannon, Light, Machine, LV: 10, Fusion Monster, Fusion Materials needed: 'ABC Drake Buster' + 'XYZ Dragon Cannon', ATK: 4000, DEF: 4000)
The whole crowd was now focusing on the tag duel now, the ultimate Union Fusion Monster being the biggest reason of course, they made audible gasps and genuine awe from the sight of A to Z Dragon Buster Cannon, Jasmine folded her arms and gave a smug look towards her two friends as she made a single look of the fusion monster.
"Hah! I knew for a fact that they're were going to be toast, it wasn't a matter of if...It was a matter of when!" Jasmine said with a smug scoff coming out of her lips, Alexis sighed loudly from Jasmine's words.
"Please be quiet Jasmine..." Alexis asked of the Strawberry Blonde, not believing in Jasmine's phony smug attitude.
"...This isn't good." Was all Kuro said as Chazz laugh.
"Now! Time to destroy your Flame Wingman to win this duel, A to Z Dragon Buster Cannon, attack Jaden's Flame Wingman with...ABCXYZ Energy Surge!"
"Didn't you forget about our Royal Guard Trap Card?" Jaden asked as he was prepared to activate it to defend themselves from the attack, Chazz only laughed once again.
"Not until I use A to Z's effect, since you activated an effect of a card, I can discard one card to negate it and destroy it!" The two Slifer Students gasped once again as they saw the useful trap card be destroyed by one of A to Z's Dragon heads.
"Then I'll use my set card! Emergency Provisions! I can send Kuro's face down and this card to the graveyard to gain 1000 lifepoints!" Jaden played the quick-play spell, Kuro grumbled to himself as his perfect recipe card was sent to the graveyard as result of Emergency Provisions effect.
"I was saving that...But okay." Kuro interjected
"Hey, we're still alive because of me, remember that!" Jaden retorted.
"WHAT?! Why don't you just lose and give up already!?" Chazz threatened as A to Z completely destroyed Flame Wingman with a barrage of lasers and missiles.
Jaden and Kuro's LP: 400
"We're only giving up until our life points hit zero!" Jaden valiantly said, Chazz growled under his breath as he ended his turn with an arrogant but smug smile on his face.
"Whatever, We'll just keep attacking until your whole field is wiped out!" Chazz said as his friend laughed in agreement.
"Jaden, I hope you have a last resort, my monsters can't defend for long and since you got rid of my perfect recipe card, I can't really do fusions now..." Kuro began to lament, Jaden seemed more fired up than ever, he gave the Sushi-themed duelist a thumbs up, Kuro only twitch slightly from Jaden's infallible enthusiasm and spirit.
"Don't worry, I think we got this duel in the bag!" Jaden said as he drew his card from his deck, not even bothering to look at it as he played his turn.
"I summon...Winged Kuriboh!" The fairy-centric winged Kuriboh appeared on the field, several Obelisk girls gushed at the cuteness of the Winged Kuriboh, three particular, different hair-colored Obelisk Girls however, took no part in cute validation.
"In attack mode!" Jaden added on with a almost joking smile on his face, even Kuro looked completely abolished from such an idea, a low attack monster in ATTACK Position, right in front of a 4000 attack monster, guess underneath Jaden's determination was the brutal realization that they pretty much lost this duel.
'...Swear to the universe Jaden, I'm going to purposefully feed you some old undercooked food when we're done.' Kuro swore internally.
"I set one card face down and I end my turn! Your move Raizou! By the way Kuro, I need you to activate the set card I just placed down!" Jaden said as the two Obelisk Students were to busy laughing from such a idiotic play, not listening to the last part to which Kuro begrudgingly agreed to.
"Thank you for listening to Chazz and giving up! I'm not even going to draw this turn!" Raizou said with an arrogant laugh, clearly taking in his victory with stride and smug.
"I summon my B-Buster Drake, and I'll attack your Winged Kuriboh! Good bye Slifer Slacker!" Raizou said as he howled with Laughter.
"I'll use this set card! I hope it won't destroy my recipes!" Kuro responded to Raizou's attacks, believing the card was something completely useless, that was until it was his duel partner, Jaden explained.
"Transcendent Wings! I can tribute my Winged Kuriboh to special summon Winged Kuriboh LV 10!" The Winged Kurbioh suddenly gained greater sized fairy wings, coupled with armor that shaped and molded like a rising golden phoenix.
"Hahaha! whatever! A to Z clip that thing's wings!" Raizou nonchalantly hand-waved,
"Wait Raizou, Don-" Chazz was interuppted by Jaden.
"Then I'll use his effect! I can tribute it to destroy all of your monsters and deal damage equal to half of all your monsters combined attack!" Raizou stopped laughing as he heard this, he made a stupid look as he turned his head to Chazz, who was also stunned, but mostly, silently raging against his tag partner for not bothering to think before attacking.
A second of silence passed, it was almost, surreal as the whole crowd was even silenced by Winged Kuriboh's powerful effect.
'...Well that was a arse-pull.' Kuro thought to himself as both Obelisk Blue students began to lose their minds in great disbelief as their monsters were destroyed, dealing damage to them and effectively, losing the duel!
Chazz and Raizou's LP: 0
"Aw yeah! You guys just got thrashed!" Jaden yelled with a victorious tone, putting his fist up in the air as he posed heroically, the whole crowd started to cheer with a loudening might, as Chazz began to bicker and argue with Raizou, it was a spectacular moment, Kuro quickly realized that he, not once even felt like the crowd was giving him heavy expectations, with an unassuming tone, the Sushi-Themed Duelist walked out of the dueling arena, wanting to end the day with Jasmine's (hopefully well-meaning) surprise.
Some Time Later...
The Sun started to set and the moon began to rise, night was underway and similar to yesterday and the day before that, Kuro was silently on his way to the Obelisk Girl's dorm, but instead of just spending time with Jasmine at the lake, it was going to be at her dorm, Kuro hoped that it wasn't going to be anything frisky, it was only like, two, three days being at Duel Academy, he hoped it wasn't anything gratifying or dramatic.
Kuro then realized something while he was walking, it was enough of a realization to made him stop right in his tracks...How could he visit Jasmine, if he didn't know where her room was? She told him to visit her room, she didn't give a number or anything!
The Duelist growled under his breath in annoyance as he turned around and began walking to the other way.
'At least I know what the surprise is...A prank!'
