TWO-POINT-ZERO

AN: Well… Chapter Eleven… Here's what happened: The Neo Darkness have their sights on Tim, and while both him and Rick decide to go rescue their fallen comrades, the rest of the crew, including Steve, try to catch up to them. Inside the Neo Darkness base, Tim and Rick catch up to Serena, and despite Rick's protests, Tim sends him away so that he could have a chance to rescue Serena! I don't own YGO GX, but I do own all the OCs. ROLL IT!

Chapter Eleven: The Thunder Rolls

"Serena, you're not thinking clearly." Tim began. "The darkness has you. Fight it!"

"I'll fight something all right." Serena replied. "I'll fight you." Her duel disk activated as she finished that sentence.

"All righty… If that's what I have to do to save you, I'll do it." Tim said as he activated his disk. As he said this, the room turned dark. "I hate this part." He said.

"You'll hate it even more when you lose!" Serena cried.

Tim/Serena: GAME ON!

Tim: 4000

Serena: 4000

Meanwhile, Adriana, Michelle, Eric and Steve were going down into the lion's den. "You sure you know where you're going?" Adriana asked Steve.

"Sure love." Steve answered, and at the word love, Eric gave him a pretty questioning look.

"I mean, sure Adriana." Steve said, correcting what he said. 'Actually I don't know what I'm doing.' He thought to himself.

Back at the duel, Tim made his first move. "My move first! I'll draw!" He cried. "For starters, I'll summon out Vorse Raider (1900/1200) in attack mode, and I'll place one card face down to end the turn." He said.

"Hmm… I'll draw." Serena said. "For starters, I'll place two cards face down, and then place a monster in defence mode. It's your turn, Timothy." She finished with a bit of disdain in her voice.

"All right! My draw!" Tim exclaimed. "I'll summon out Dark Blade (1800/1500) in attack mode, and with my polymerization magic card, fuse both him and my Pitch-Dark Dragon (900/600) to form Dark Blade the Dragon Knight! (2200/1500)" Tim cried. "Now, attack her defence monster!" he exclaimed.

"You attacked my Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle (600/2000)!" Serena said. "He doesn't get destroyed, but he stays on the field!" She finished. "My draw! I'll summon out Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth in attack mode (1700/1600), and place one card face down to end my turn!" she cried.

"Big mistake!" Tim said. "My move! I'll summon out X-Head Cannon (1800/1500) and he'll attack that overgrown elephant over there!"

"Not so fast, ojama boy!" Serena replied. "You activated my here trap! Gem Formation-Amber increases the attack points of my mammoth by the total number of attack points of each monster on my side of the field! (2300/1600), and he's gonna attack your X-Head Cannon!" She said as that happened.

Tim: 3500

Serena: 4000

"Funny how love hurts." Serena said. "I'll just end my turn here."

"It's gonna hurt you more than me!" Tim cried. "My draw! I'll use my premature burial card and pay 800 life points to bring back my X-Head Cannon, and then summon out Y-Dragon Head! (1500/1600) Now to finish the turn! Dark Blade, attack Amber Mammoth!"

Tim: 2700

Serena: 3500

"All right, my move!" I'll reveal my first face down card! Mine Blasting allows me to take out five cards and put them in the graveyard. Of course, I won't be able to draw next turn, but I won't need to! Then I'll activate my second face-down." Serena said, with a smile.

"Oh no." Tim said with a shudder. He instantly knew what Serena was planning to do.

"That's right!" She replied. "I'll activate Rainbow's Gravity and special summon Rainbow Dragon! (4000/0) Now, attack Y-Dragon Head!" She cried out as the attack happened.

Tim: 200

Serena: 3500

Meanwhile, Adriana, Michelle, Eric and Steve were still navigating the base when Rick ran up to them.

"Rick? What's going on?" Michelle asked.

"Tim… He's duelling Serena right now." Rick answered.

"Oh no…" Steve said. "That's not gonna end good…"

"Come on!" Rick replied as he lead to the crew to the room where Tim and Serena were in. They arrived in time to see the room shrouded in the darkness.

As the duel wore on, Tim thought, 'What the heck am I gonna do? Hope the deck's with me…' He then drew. 'Yes! This card is just what I need to turn it around!' He then turned to Serena, and said, "All right Serena! It's time for me to get rid of that overgrown lizard! I'll use my Tribute to the doomed spell card to discard one of my cards and as a result, say so long to Rainbow Dragon!"

"No!" Serena cried as her Rainbow Dragon was destroyed.

"Oh yes!" Tim replied. "Now, I'm gonna use my ojamagic card to bring out my good buddies the ojama brothers in my hand, and now that that's done, Dark Blade and X-Head Cannon, attack directly!"

Tim: 200

Serena: 0

"As my father would say… 'You go BYE-BYE!'" Tim said. He then ran to Serena, as did the crew. As Serena fell, a dark field surrounded her, and she disappeared.

"What the-?" Rick asked. "What happened?"

"Serena!" Tim cried.

"She's in Neo Anti-Space." A voice said.

"Aqua Dolphin!" Adriana replied. "What is Neo Anti-Space?"

"When the one who challenges loses a duel in Neo Dark, they are sent to Neo Anti-Space, a place where all you see is pure darkness." Aqua Dolphin explained.

"So how do we get Serena back?" Adriana asked.

"By defeating the head of the Neo Darkness." Aqua Dolphin answered as he faded.

"I swear…" Tim began. "I swear on my name and pride as a Princeton, I'll get you back!" he finished.

"Hey, you're not alone in this." Rick said as he put his hand on Tim's shoulder. "I'll be there too."

"Count me in." Michelle replied. "After all, I'm your big sister, and I've gotta baby sit you, no matter how bad it is."

"Don't forget about me, mates!" Steve said. "After what you did, I'm starting to believe that you've got something."

"Hey! Don't think you're gonna leave us out!" Eric replied.

"Yeah, after all that happened, we'll make sure Serena comes back no worse for wear!" Adriana said. "Those Neo Darkness freaks are gonna wish that they never took one of our friends!"

"Thanks guys." Tim replied.

"Hey, no problem, moneybags." Eric said. "Now let's get out of here before the night watchers decide to send a search party." The crew nodded as they left the base.

However, the leader of the Neo Darkness was watching the proceedings. "So, they've knocked out one of my soldiers. They won't be celebrating long…" He cackled as his somewhat familiar eyes sparkled dangerously…
