[Chapter 11: Tag Team, Part 2!]
Me: Finally the last part of the Tag Team duel is under away, but first. I'll like to introduced Shadow Realm Triforce!
Shadow Realm Triforce: Hey everyone! I well be doing the disclaimer. YGO Fan Girl owns only Misaki Valentine, the Gem Beasts/Occult deck list, and 20 cards in the deck, and I, however, own only Annabelle Bakura and the rhythms that were used. We also don't own YUGIOH! GX or the Evil Heroes or Megaman NT Warrior and the rest of the Gem Beasts/Occult deck and the Cyber Hero deck cause if we did then Crowler and Chazz wouldn't exist and Alexis and Jaden would be together.
Me: Now please remember to...
Me+Shadow Realm Triforce: Read and Review. Enjoy.
...My Line...
Recap!
"Your life points are falling..."
"Your game play is appalling..."
"There's is nothing to do except give up and start bowling!"
Alexis and Bastion let out gasps as Misaki and Anna growled under their breaths.
"Crash and burn!"
"Cause now it's our boys turn!"
The Brothers glared at them as the two girls just looked at them with smugged looks though Misaki did notice Jaden's head was done and that she couldn't see his chocolate brown eyes that she has grown to love.
Attention Jaden Yuki! It is your turn! You must make a move or you well be disqualified!
QS-Misaki looked at Jaden worried that he was going to give up.
"It's two monsters to none," Bastion told them, "it's a simple calculation to figure...they'll be knackered."
"Nice Bastion," Alexis told him, "now you're putting them down with words we don't even understand. Well, we just have to believe that Jaden has a strategy."
"Oh I'm sure he does," Bastion stated, "it's Syrus, I'm concerned about. He's walked into every trap, spell, and atk card the Paradox Brothers played. He's been horrible."
"On second thought, we liked it better when we couldn't understand you," the three girls told him.
"Oh, sorry," Bastion apologized.
"Come on," Misaki prayed.
Misaki let out a sigh of relief when Jaden lifted his head up only with a determined look in his eyes, but she was unaware of Alexis and Anna smirking at her.
"Well, well, the Slifer Red Forges ahead," Para rhymed in awe.
"When a smarter Duelist would have fled instead," Dox finished.
"Oh man, I'm starting to wish the Academy made us Slifer Orange then we wouldn't have to put up with so many of these awful rhymes," Jaden stated.
Misaki and Anna laughed at that truth of that as the Brothers looked insulted.
"Got that right!" Anna called out.
Misaki still giggled as Winged Kuriboh appeared next to Jaden.
"Kuri."
"Yeah I don't think they got it either," Jaden told Kuriboh.
"Forget about our rhyming."
"Just concentrate on your card playing."
"For the partner that you have..."
"To win..."
"You have a long way!"
"Don't listen to them, Sy," Jaden told the blue haired boy who looked down.
"But Jaden, they're right," Syrus told his partner.
"No, they're not, and I know so because you're going to be the one whose going to take that thing down," Jaden stated as he pointed at the Brothers' Guardian. "Plus listen to Misaki and Anna."
Jaden pointed at the two Obelisk Blue girls.
"Our boys are so cool!" Misaki started to the rhyme.
"They rock the school!" Anna finished.
Alexis giggled while Bastion shooked his head when they cought the blush on the Slifer Red's faces though Jaden looked more pleased then embarrassed.
"Their better at rhyming anyways," Jaden said with a shrug before he went to draw a new card. "So let's go!" At that he draw a new card. "First I'm going to summon Elemental Hero Sparkman in atk mode!" The electric hero appeared onto the field in a shower of sparks. (Atk 1600) "And next I'll equip him with this, Spark Blaster!" Misaki and Anna looked at each other as Megaman appeared next to the dark haired Valentine. "With each blast, I get to switch the battle position of one of your monsters." Sparkman aimed the gun that he was holding in his hand. "Gate Guardian take a knee!"
Even though the Gate Guardian struggled to stay in atk mode it soon kneeled down in front of the brothers.
"Well, that was certainly an odd choice," Bastion said, "unless Jaden has something planned, he just wasted his move."
Misaki and Anna glared over at him before looking back at the duel looking worried.
"You must be a fool," Para told Jaden, "when Gate Guardian's on the defense he never tires. Your situation is just as dire."
"And though I hate to feed the fire," Dox added, "our Defense Wall, you have yet to retire!"
"Great, thanks," Jaden said sarcastically, "I'm going to play a face down and end my turn."
"Fine then," Dox said as he placed two figures on his deck, "my draw!" With that he plucked a card from the top of his deck. "I'll just play this face down, no more, no less." Dox looked over at Para. "Brother, you do the rest."
"Excellent decision, I think it's for the best," Para agreed, "for next turn I'm sure to win us this contest."
"Oh man," Syrus sighed, "Jaden, you heard them." Jaden looked over at Syrus with a confused look. "Next turn they'll take us down. There's no point in my even drawing. I should give up, at least then they'll let you have a rematch."
"Syrus, listen to me," Jaden told him with a smile, "one draw, that's all it takes to turn this duel around. You remember the last time you had one draw, right?" Syrus looked at Jaden as he remember one of the practice duels they had. "You hear what I'm saying, Sy? There's no such thing as a last draw cause with the right card you can always get another one."
"But..."
"No buts about it," Jaden interrupted, "make your move pal. I know you can do it Sy. It's all up to you."
'I know Jaden, but that's what I'm afraid of,' Syrus thought as he looked down, 'aw man. Jaden said that my one draw can keep us from losing this duel, but the only way we won't lose is if we beat that Gate Guardian.' Syrus looked at his deck before his eyes widen. "That's it, that one card is the only chance we have, but if I don't draw it, we're done. Jaden and me. All our hopes of becoming the best, everything we ever dream about. Our fun, our friendship, our future it'll all be over.' Misaki and Anna shared a look before they turned back to the duel. "Alright, here it goes." Syrus drew the card from the top of his deck before he smiled and then looked over at his partner. "Jaden!"
"Sy, you got it?" Jaden asked receiving a nod from Syrus, "well, then show 'em the drill."
"Alright, I'm summoning Drillroid in atk mode!" Syrus told them as he summoned a cartoon type drill, "and guess what?" Masaki started to smile. "When Drillroid fights a monster in def mode it's automatically destroyed!"
"Oh yeah," Jaden cheered.
"So open wide!" Syrus told them as his drill went at the Gate Guardian.
"Defense Wall!"
Masaki let out a groan when Syrus' little drill hit their wall, but it was still destroyed.
Jaden+Syrus: 1200
"A nice try..."
"But not nice enough."
"Gate Guardian still stands!"
"Despite your best stuff."
"Your I.Q. must be really low!" Masaki rhythmed.
"Cause you duel really slow!" Anna finished the rhythm.
"Their right, you know cause that wasn't his best stuff," Jaden told them, "right Sy?"
"Wha?" the Brothers asked.
"Yup, and now that your Defense Wall is rumble," Syrus announced, "you'll get it, well, a certain monster well, anyways."
"Wow."
"I activate the spell card Shield Crush!" Syrus told them as he held up the card, "that's right! And just like the name suggests it destroys any monsters trying to hide in defense mode, just like...that Gate Guardian!"
When the card activated it let out a blinding flash of light which destroyed Gate Guardian with ease.
"Gate Guardian is cooked!"
"I can hardly look."
"Nice going Sy," Jaden cheered, "the bigger they brawl, the harder they fall."
The crowd started to cheer for the two boys while Masaki smiled with happiness.
"Did you see that?" Bastion asked, "did you? Tell me, you three saw that?"
"Bastion, we're next to you watching our friends in the duel of their lives," Alexis answered, "what do you think we're looking at?"
"Huh?"
Bastion looked over at the blond obelisk.
"But, do you know what amazes me more then them taking down that Gate Guardian?" Alexis asked, "the team work that they used to do it with. That's what it's going to take to win this."
"Yes, let's hope that they can keep it up," Bastion agreed.
"Jaden's not that ease to take down Bastion," Masaki told him.
Anna and Alexis giggled while Bastion looked at the dark haired Valentine with a raised eyebrow.
"They just might win this duel Masaki," Megaman told the Cyber HERO duelist.
'It would seem so Megaman,' Masaki thought in agreement.
"I play one face down and end my turn," Syrus concluded before he looked at Jaden, "thanks for the prep talk."
"Hey, thank you for the sweet move," Jaden praised.
"Mind if we join in on the praise, you two?" Para asked.
"Because for destroying that monster we should really..."
"Thank you." both Brothers finished.
Syrus looked surprised while Masaki, Anna, Alexis, and Bastion looked concerned.
"They want doesn't destroy you only makes you stronger," Para told them as he drew a card, "it's true, after all, we haven't been destroyed and we're about to become more powerful then ever!" He then held up a card. "Dark Element!" Syrus let out a gasp while Masaki and Anna looked at each other worried. "This spell card can only be played when Gate Guardian is in the graveyard." Both Masaki and Anna looked back at the duel. "Now by paying half our life points..."
P+D: 3500
"This is not good," Masaki groaned.
"I have to agree with you, Masaki," Anna agreed.
"We can summon a monster that can't be destroy in battle."
"Dark Guardian!"
Both Masaki and Anna let out gasp of horror when a black smoke took a shape and formed an armored, burly man carrying an axe who was riding some sort of a mechanical spider.
"Invincible in battle and has those atk points," Bastion gasped.
"This is bad," Syrus groaned.
"Guardian, attack Drillroid with Axe Slash Bash!"
Bastion, Anna, Masaki, and Alexis all let out a gasp as Dark Guardian swung its axe producing energy waves.
"That's it!" Bastion said in shock, "if it connects, both Jaden and Syrus will lose."
"Jaden," Masaki whispered.
"Syrus! Jaden!" both Alexis and Anna shouted in worry.
"Farewell..."
"Not yet!" Jaden told them, "I play my face down, Hero Barrier!" Masaki let out the breath that she was holding as the card lifted up. "Sorry, fellas, but this let's me stop one of your atks as long as there's an Elemental Hero out. And as you can see, Sparkman's standing strong!"
A strong wind picked up making the others to cover their faces slightly as a shield appeared and the attack bounced off a shield before the energy could nail Drillroid.
"An impressive trap card."
"I'd never thought they would be so hard."
I know, we bombard and bombard," Para agreed, "oh well, at least out precious Dark Guardian..."
"Has kept up his guard."
"Quit right, Brother, he will not be blasted to sherds.
"He'll finish them off next turn..."
"And this duel will be ours!" the Brothers finished as one.
"STOP WITH THE STUPID RHYTHMING!" Anna shouted at them as she moved to hurt them, but to only be held back by Masaki.
"Anna, just calm down," Masaki told her, "we'll just get them back for that rhythm later."
Masaki looked at Syrus with a sad look when he fall to his knees.
'Just when I step up my game, they step up theirs even more,' thought Syrus.
"Chin up Sy," Jaden told him, "this duel's not over yet."
"But Jay..."
"But nothing, pal, stand up," Jaden told him, 'because you're going to want a good view for what I'm about to pull.'
"Looks like the boy wants to proceed," Para noticed when Syrus stood up shakily.
"Really? I thought for surely mercy he would please."
"No, he would need smarts to want to concede."
"Can it, you two!" Jaden ordered.
Masaki and Anna were now shaking in anger.
"You better chill!" Masaki called down.
"Cause there's more thrill when our boys kill!" Anna finished before Masaki reached over and knocked Anna upside the head. "What was that for?"
"You know better then to add in anything that has to do with killing," Masaki scolded.
"I was talking about killing the monsters not the bold freaks," Anna defended.
Jaden let out a breath when he heard Anna's reason though Megaman at the time just shooked his head.
"It's my turn," Jaden told them as he went to drew a card from his deck, "I activate the spell Pot of Greed, this let's me drew two cards and next I play Fusion Gate!" Masaki smiled as Jaden played the card. "With this, I don't need Polymerization, I can bring out all the fusion monsters I want, and I think I'll fuse Elemental Hero Avian, Bubbleman…" He motioned to his Sparkman. "And why don't we throw Sparkman into the mix as well." Sparkman turned into yellow light and joined the green light that was Avian and the blue light that was Bubbleman. "All to create… wait for it…" Masaki and Alexis let out a gasp when in a burst of light. "And there he is, the Elemental Hero Tempest!"
Masaki was in awe of the new monster who was wearing blue armor and had wild green hair, a glass visor over his eyes, and green wings with white metallic feathers and his right arm, a sliver cannon.
"Fine creature," Bastion said, "but it's still too weak to defeat their Guardian."
"Bastion just whose side are you on?" Alexis asked in annoyances.
'I hope you know what your doing Jaden,' Masaki thought with worry.
"An impressive move, but it's useless boy."
"Have you, forgotten about Dark Guardian?" Dox asked, "he's still deployed and since in battle he can't be destroyed..."
"Their beast is null and void."
"Void this," Jaden told him as he place a card in the field spell card zone, "Skyscraper!" Masaki smiled as city Buildings started to appear around them. "Ever hear you should never play in a construction zone? Well it's true, because now my Elemental Hero gains an extra 1000 attack points because he's weaker than Dark Guardian!"
"What the..."
"Now, Hero Tempest!" Jaden said, "atk Dark Guardian with Power House Plummet!"
Masaki raised an eyebrow as Tempest dove towards Dark Guardian and fired its cannon at point blank range.
"Don't I warn you?" Para asked, "in battle he cannot be beat. Your Elemental Hero Tempest had been wasted so just accept.
"Your defeat."
"Sy can you spare a card?" Jaden asked.
"Sure," Syrus agreed.
"I use Tempest special ability!" Jaden announced as Syrus' card vanished, "sorry, you guys, but as long as I banish one of our cards to the graveyard, Tempest isn't destroyed."
"I don't get it," Alexis told them, "was he hoping for a tie?"
Masaki and Anna looked at each other before shrugging, but they looked back at the duel.
"Jaden..."
"Hey it's cool."
"Yeah?"
"Syrus everything will work out if you play the right card come your turn," Jaden told him.
"If he has a turn," Dox stated as he drew a new card, "I play the trap card One-on-One Fight! Though I'm sure you'd rather run and hide, this forces both our strongest monsters to do battle. So I hope your Elemental Hero Tempest is up for a rematch."
"But why, it'll be a tie again," Syrus protested, "so what's the point in attacking?"
"I have my reasons," Dox answered.
"And their sneaky ones, too," Alexis agreed, "in order for Tempest to keep tieing with Dark Guardian, Jaden going to have to keep sacrificing cards."
"And whatever edge they give him," Bastion told him.
"Well, I hate to do this, but I have no choice," Jaden sighed, "I guess I have to get rid of Skyscraper."
Misaki let out a sigh as the buildings vanished.
"So you saved you monster, but that doesn't mean you saved you life points!" Dox told him.
Jaden+Syrus: 200
"That's all for me," Dox said.
"But I give you, my guarantee."
"Next turn the duel will be ours just wait and see."
"Alright Sy," Jaden said as he looked over the other boy, "remember what I said."
"Oh, right," Syrus agreed, 'that this well all worked out if I played the right card.'
"Got it Sy?"
"I think," Syrus answered, 'play? That goes back to what my brother was saying about the difference between using a card and playing a card, but do I know the differences.' Misaki looked a bit worried when Syrus just stood there for a while without doing anything. 'Ok, no more thinking, it's time to act. No more thinking! Time for action!' "Here we go! My drew!" Syrus drew a new from his deck. "Ok, first all, I sacrifice Drillroid to summon UFORoid!" A small saucer appeared floating around him with the same cartoonish look as his other monsters. "And also I activate the spell card Power Bond! It's a fusion card and I have just the two monsters to fuse." Syrus looked over Jaden. "Jaden, do you mind?"
"Hey, what's mine is yours, Sy," Jaden answered with a smile.
"Then I merge UFORoid and Tempest to create UFORoid Fighter!" Syrus announced just as the space saucer transformed into a hovering platform which Tempest was shown riding. "And it gets better. It's attack points are the sum total of each individual monster's attack points!"
Misaki and Anna looked happy already knowing one of the two effects of Power Bond.
"It matters not," Para told him, "so cease your useless prattle!"
"You know Dark Guardian cannot be destroyed in battle."
"Yeah, that's true, but it doesn't really matter because Power Bond has a special effect that doubles my Roid Fighter's attack points!"
Misaki smiled as Anna cheered while the new monsters attack points went up to 8000.
"8000!"
"Sure, the Dark Guardian well survive the attack, but it'll be a different story your life points," Syrus told them, "not let's go! Roid Fighter, attack! Cosmic Flux Blast!"
Jaden+Syrus: 200
Para+Dox: 0
"YES!" Anna and Misaki cheered as they high fived each other.
"Well, well, they won," Bastion said in impressed tone, "I must say that I'm getting more impressed every day."
"I'm just happy that Jaden gets to stay here," Misaki sighed.
"Jaden and Syrus, you mean?" Alexis asked her with a goofy grin.
"Well, yes, Syrus, too, of course," Misaki answered as she looked at Alexis, "I just said Jaden because I...uh..." Misaki looked back at the two Slifers. "Moving on."
Anna and Alexis started laughing at Misaki's mistake while Bastion looked at them confused.
"Let it out Syrus," Jaden was saying to the other Slifer, "I know you cry when your happy."
"No way," Syrus told Jaden, "not the new Syrus."
"Aw, there's just somethings that well never change," Jaden sighed as Syrus started to cheer up.
"Well, one thing that won't be changing is your enrollment at the Academy," the Chancellor told him, "your here to stay."
"YEAH!" Jaden cheered, "oh." At this Jaden turned around to look at the brothers. "hey, you guys just to let you know it was a great honor." Jaden then his special posed. "And if you ever want a rematch then just holler."
"Well, said Jaden," the Chancellor praised, "and I'm sure it'll be even better written." Misaki and Anna started to laugh as Jaden freaked out. "That's right. I would like a 5 page report. I want to read all about what you learned by dueling the brothers and how it helped you realize that trespassing in the Abandon Dorm was wrong."
"Talk about a bummer."
"How about 10 pages then?" the Chancellor asked making Anna to laugh harder, "and single space, too."
Misaki watched as the Chancellor left the arena before she stood up.
"I'll make sure that they get it done Chancellor," Banner praised.
"How can I write 10 pages?" Jaden asked, "I never even read that much!" Misaki and Alexis both sweat dropped while Anna blinked in confusion and concern. "10 whole pages! That's piratically a whole book."
"You like him, how again?" Anna asked Misaki.
"What?" Misaki asked with a blush, "who gave you that idea?"
"Jaden?"
"My life is so over," Jaden groaned, "I don't even know how to spell Paradox Brothers. And do all their parts have to rhyme? Ah, this is going to take forever."
"Who cares?" Chumly's voice was heard as he ran down to them, "at least you here to stay."
"That's game!" Jaden yelled as he once again struck his posed while the school cheered.
Misaki looked at the others with a smile.
"Let's go down there and congratulate them?" she asked before running down.
The other three followed Misaki with smiles on their faces.
"Jaden!" they all called out.
Jaden turned just in time to catch Misaki who hugged him making the Elemental Hero Duelist to blush.
"Misaki?" he asked in confusion.
Anna and Alexis watched with batted breath as Misaki looked up at Jaden with a smile that made the poor boy blush even more. Misaki felt like she couldn't breath when she looked Jaden in the eyes and without warning found herself kissing Jaden. Alexis, Syrus, Anna, Bastion, and the rest of the school gasp in shock before Misaki quickly pulled away from a stun Jaden.
"Oh my Ra," Misaki breathed as she blushed redder then Jaden's Slifer jacket, "I'm so sorry Jaden. I-I don't know what came over me...I..."
Misaki didn't even finish her sentence before she turned on her heels and ran out of the arena right as Jaden snapped out of it.
"MISAKI!" Jaden yelled, but it was to late.
Anna and Alexis looked at each other before they decided to follow Misaki out of the arena leaving behind a stunned school, Syrus, and Bastion, and a highly confused and worried Jaden.
