"Okay, where do we stand?" asked Leo.
"Puck is leading by 300 life points. Yusei has only his weakened Max Warrior on the field, where Puck has his Green Ghost which has 3500 attack points and can't be selected as an attack target, and four gnome tokens, which can't attack or be sacrificed, but if Yusei destroys one then he takes 100 points of damage." said Mina.
"He's been in far tighter spots than this before." said Akiza "I know he'll find a way through."
"On the other hand, Yusei has never fought an opponent as tricky or as random as Mr. pixie boots down there." said Crow "Speaking of which, I thought fairies were supposed to be cute."
"Only us females." said Amelinda.
"Yeah, only the girls get a bit of Titania's beauty." said Patrick "As for us males, we're freaks!"
"Putting that aside…" said Oberon "Let the duel continue."
"But I'm hungry." said Rally.
"Patrick, attend to him."
Patrick grabbed Rally by the nose.
"What are you doing?!"
Suddenly Patrick had a hot dog in his hand.
"It's out of your nose!"
"Suddenly I'm not so hungry."
"It's my turn!" said Yusei "So now my Max Warrior's stats return to normal!"
(ATK: 1800 DEF: 800 Level: 4)
"Next I'll place two cards face down and summon Level Eater in attack mode!"
(ATK: 600 DEF: 0)
"Yes, but since you summoned another monster, I get another gnome token!"
Much to Puck's surprise, nothing happened.
"I said, I get another gnome token!"
Yusei smiled.
"Looks like you've over looked something important Puck."
"Wait a minute… I don't have any more available monster card zones!"
"Yes, so until I destroy some of you monsters you can't get another gnome token."
"Whatever, your Max Warrior has only 1800 attack points, and my Green Ghost has 3500, and even if he did have enough attack points it wouldn't matter, since my Green Ghost can't be selected as an attack target!"
"Don't worry, I've already found a way around that. Max Warrior attack one of his gnome tokens!"
Yusei's Max Warrior easily dispatched the targeted token.
(Yusei: 1800)
"Now I'll activate the effect of my still in play Domino Effect, by sending my Level Eater to the graveyard I can destroy one you monsters, namely your Green Ghost!"
"Err… But since your Max Warrior destroyed one of my tokens, his stats are cut in half!"
(ATK: 900 DEF: 400 LV: 2)
"I know how my own card works. Make your move."
"Very well, first I'll special summon the Scapegoat King from my hand."
(ATK: 500 DEF: 500)
"Next I'll sacrifice him to summon the Sassy Succubus in attack mode!"
(ATK: 2000 DEF: 1800)
"And now I'll activate my second Wish with a Twist spell card!"
"Oh no, not this again." said Leo.
"Pick a card in your deck." said Puck smiling.
"Okay… Last time Puck used that card I choose to add Road Synchron to my hand, and as a result I lost life points equal to his attack points. I've only got 1800 life points left, so I don't want to risk that again… Maybe if I pick a spell card."
Yusei searched his deck.
"Okay, I choose this, Magical Stone Excavation."
"Very well, since you choose a spell card, I get to take three cards in my graveyard, shuffle them back into my deck, and draw two more."
"Could be worse."
"Next I'll activate the effect of my Sassy Succubus!"
Puck's Succubus blew a kiss to Yusei's Max Warrior, next thing they knew he was leaving Yusei's side of the field.
"What?!"
"Surprised? Succubi are female demons that have the power seduce and enslave men. So once per turn I can use her charm to take control of one of your monsters. Fortunately for you, if she uses this effect she can't attack during the turn it's activated. Also monsters I've obtained via this effect can't attack."
"What? Then why take control of them?" asked Luna "Yusei's wide open for a direct attack and none of Puck's monsters can move."
"Dear sweet little Luna, that's were the succubus' second effect comes in." said Titania "As long as Puck has other monsters on the field, Yusei can't attack her. So in order to get to her, Yusei must destroy all Puck's other monsters, including the gnome tokens. And in doing so he inflict more damage upon himself."
"But Yusei only loses 100 points when a gnome token is destroyed." said Leo "It would take eighteen of those for Yusei to lose the rest of his life points."
"That's thing about Puck… He's crazy."
"Now I think I'll end my turn by playing Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your Domino Effect, your move."
"I have no monsters on the field." thought Yusei "Even if I summon one and destroy one of his monsters, he'll just use the succubus' effect to take control of it on his next turn… Unless I take them all out right now, good thing I thought ahead."
Yusei drew his card.
"I summon Road Synchron in attack mode!"
(ATK: 1600 DEF: 800)
"And since your field is full again, you can't get another gnome token. Next I'll play the spell card Magical Stone Excavation, now by discarding two cards from my hand, I can take one spell card from my graveyard and return it to my hand. And I choose Double Summon, so now I can summon my Quillbolt Hedgehog!"
(ATK: 800 DEF: 800)
"Next I'll play the spell card Pot of Greed, now I get to draw two more cards, next I'll activate the spell card One for One! By sending Ghost Gardna from my hand to the graveyard, I can special summon Sonic Chick from my deck in attack mode!"
(ATK: 300 DEF: 300)
"Awesome! He summoned three monsters in one turn!" said Rally.
"And that's not all, those gnome tokens have no defense points, so Yusei can destroy all three of them this turn, leaving Puck with only Max Warrior and the Succubus." said Luna.
"Road Synchron, destroy the first gnome token!"
(Yusei: 1700)
"Since Road Syncrhon destroyed one of your monsters, his level is increased by one."
(LV: 5)
"Quillbolt Hedgehog, destroy the second token!"
(Yusei: 1600)
"Sonic Chick, destroy the last token!"
(Yusei: 1500)
"Next I'll activate my face down trap card, Urgent Tuning! With this I can synchro summon during this battle phase. So by tuning my leveled up Road Synchron to my Sonic Chick and Quillbolt Hedgehog, I can synchro summon Road Warrior, let's rev it up!"
(ATK: 3000 DEF: 1500)
"Next I'll activate my other face down card, Miracle Locus. Now in exchange for my Road Warrior not being able to inflict any damage this turn, he gains 1000 attack points and can attack twice this turn! Road Warrior, destroy both his monsters!"
Yusei's Road Warrior destroyed Max Warrior first, and with no more monsters to protect it, the Sassy Succubus was easy picking.
"And I think I'll end my turn by using Road Warrior's effect to special summon Fortress Warrior from my deck in defense mode!"
(ATK: 600 DEF: 1200)
"Very well… then I get another token."
(ATK: 0 DEF: 0)
"Most impressive said Oberon. Puck had five monsters in play, and he managed to destroy them all in one turn."
"And that was without using the spell card Raigeki!" said Crow.
"That's my Yusei."
"Alright that tears it." said Puck "No more Mr. nice guy, play time is officially done! Now I will unleash… the big gun!"
