And we're back! Sorry about the late update, lots of things have been going on lately making it harder to keep up with my quick updates as I had before. Anyway, last chapter, Konami was finally determined to settle things with Divine! But the leader of the Arcadia Movement is no push-over! Does Konami really have what it takes to beat the man with the plan in a Shadow Duel, or will his eagerness to duel cost him a soul? Find out, this time, on Yu-Gi-Oh: Tag Force!
Chapter 11: Cerulean Skyfire
Outside the stadium circle the spectators were beginning to get restless. Despite time being slowed in Divine's particular Shadow Realm it still marched on, leaving the public clueless and confused as to the whereabouts of the two Finalists.
Several minutes had already passed from the horrific ending of the Semifinal matches, and in a bright flash, the two victors had suddenly disappeared.
It was unnerving, to say the least.
From his position in the security offices Rex Goodwin remained stoic, watching the events unfold with a calculating gaze. He had known Divine had been plotting something, but with few leads and certain instances of blackmail he had been unable to deal with the man as he saw fit. Despite this, the man still found ways to gather information when he absolutely needed it, and so, when the two duelists had vanished he made use of his own secret weapon to track them down.
The man smiled lightly, gazing upon a severed arm glowing beside him. It had yet to fulfill its own great purpose, but it had proven most useful into allowing him to see into the other realm.
He tightened his gaze as the dark world came into view, covering the existence of the real world with that of a dark, endless abyss. Turning his gaze towards the stadium, Goodwin smirked.
There they were; the two duelists that had caused such a ruckus at his tournament.
Divine and… the Troublemaker.
They had both proven to be pains in their own way, but as he held no power in the Shadow Realm, Goodwin couldn't exactly force them to see things his way. Not yet. He needed collateral, something that would let him one up the two and get them back for derailing his plan with the Sacred Beasts.
He would get it.
Hidden from all, Goodwin listened as the two bickered back and forth with their differing ideologies. While he found it amusing that Divine seemed to be just as good as a manipulator as he was, he couldn't help but feel somewhat offended. To think that someone in his city would have the brains to plan around his plan… it was unexpected. Still, the thoughts of a "Super" Psychic were plain, and in Goodwin's eyes, terribly droll. Why bother with creating a super soldier when you had access to the power of the Gods themselves? It seemed Divine had underestimated him, but perhaps that was for the best. It wouldn't do for Goodwin to put all his eggs into one basket after all. Just as Divine had the Arcadia Movement, Goodwin had his own subjects at his beck and call. If he needed to become a bit more ruthless to make use of them, he would.
Sighing as the conversation took a turn for the worse, Goodwin opted to return to his office. He hadn't come to watch the pair duel after all, merely discover just what it was they were up to. Now that he knew, he had planning to do.
Enzo on the other hand couldn't believe his eyes. In all his years of dueling, never before had he seen someone capable of doing real damage with the creatures. Sure, he had heard of Psychics and the like before, but seeing them in action was something entirely different. The way Divine had slaughtered his opponents ruthlessly… it scared him.
It certainly didn't help that his self-proclaimed "Best Bud" was down there alone with the guy right that moment! What hope did Konami have against someone who could make one's darkest fears become real? None at all, Enzo thought. He knew that he should have been a bit more supportive, but how could he? He had never been subjected to a duel where everything was at stake, where the slightest mistake could leave you a smoldering heap of ashes.
"Worried?" Mikage asked, joining the teen solemnly.
"Mikage-san?" Enzo asked quietly, "What's going on? Those two… they just disappeared all of a sudden!"
"Mmmm…." The woman frowned in irritation, "That they did. We have Sector Security looking out for any sign of them but…"
"No luck huh…" Enzo's look darkened, "That Divine guy… he seems pretty terrifying. Do you think…" he looked away, "Do you think Konami's gonna be alright?"
Mikage blinked in surprise, "Konami? Well… I can't really say for sure. He knows how to take care of himself if that's what you're asking but… let's just say that psychics aren't all fun and games. This one in particular seems to be some kind of nutcase."
Finishing her conversation, the woman quickly turned on her heel, making her way to the front of the crowd.
"Ladies and Gentlemen!" she began, "We seem to be experiencing some… technical difficulties. If you would all please return to the indoor facilities, we will work to solve this issue as quickly as possible. We're sorry for any inconvenience we may have caused."
"Wait, they have you moving everyone inside?" Enzo asked incredulously, "But what about Konami? What about that other guy?!"
"I'm sure they're fine." Mikage answered fluidly, "We just need to move everyone to a more controlled environment so we can get a better feel for the situation."
Unfortunately, her expression betrayed her thoughts, proving that even she doubted the system in this time of need.
"Better feel for the situation? Yeah right. You're just stalling for time." Enzo argued, "Whatever. It's not like sitting around here is doing any good. That idiot better not go and get himself hurt."
"That idiot huh?" Mikage thought smugly, "Funny, usually we're thinking the same things about you." She sighed, "On behalf of Sector Security, thank you for your cooperation. We will attempt to solve this issue in a swift and timely manner."
"Smells like a cover-up to me…" one member of the crowd grumbled, "Makes you wonder what this tournament is really about."
The crowd in general seemed to agree, raising their voices to shout as much as Mikage began to frown.
"Please, everyone! I assure you that nothing is being covered up. We merely need you to remain in a single area so we can-!"
Her speech was interrupted as a spiral can of soda brushed against her forehead. Wincing, Mikage turned back to the crowd, ready to scold the culprit only to be assaulted by a barrage of similar items.
Popcorn, soda cans, condiments of all flavors began to make their way to the front, the angry crowd quickly growing into a mob based on the few events that had occurred moments ago.
"Ow! Hey, stop that!" Mikage hissed, "I'll have you know that assaulting a member of Sector Security is a crime!"
The crowd seemed to ignore the woman, her words only serving to anger them further.
"That's enough!" a booming voice roared from the back of the crowd, his white Duel Runner catching everyone's attention.
"That's…"
"No way…. What's he doing here?!"
"Is this what Neo Domino City has become?" Jack Atlas asked, his stern gaze settling upon each and every member of the crowd, "A rampant town of hoodlums and lunatics? If I wanted that much I'd go to Satellite!"
He didn't bother to state he'd already been there. The crowd already had the decency to look ashamed at their actions, staring up at the man renowned as the "King" of Neo Domino City.
"Mr. Atlas…" Mikage sighed happily, brushing several small stains from her coat, "You came for me."
"Hmph, don't count on it! It just so happens that Goodwin had asked to see me!" Jack continued stoically, "I was heading to his office when I saw how ridiculous this lot was acting. How shameful. They should be on their upmost behavior when in the presence of a King!" he declared, slouching back into his Duel Runner.
"Mr. Atlas…"
"Well? Are you coming?" Jack asked in annoyance, "Or would you prefer to remain here in the presence of these slackers?"
"I-I'm coming of course!" Mikage nodded, "But… I have to make sure the public gets to safety…"
Jack's glare increased, and he turned his attention back to the crowd, "You heard the woman! Get back inside!"
The crowd nodded meekly, shrugging away from the man who had won their respect over several years of undefeated victories. Such a record would give even the Great King of Games pause.
One after another the crowd grumbled their way back into the lobbies, torn between anger for being "kicked out" and happiness for meeting the esteemed "King".
"Well? Your problem has been settled correct? Come! Goodwin does not like to be kept waiting."
"R-Right!"
From her place in the celebrity booth, Misty was annoyed.
She had told the boy to be careful, she had warned him about Divine, and even so, he'd run off into the face of danger without hesitation, and look where it had gotten him! Now both he and the enemy were missing, and needless to say, Misty feared the worst.
She didn't know what drew her to the boy, outside of the obvious resemblance he held to her dead brother, Toby. They had the same hair style… the same eyes, hell, even their tone of voice could be said to be relatively similar!
It was for that very reason that she felt the way she did. How could she stand by and watch as she lost her brother yet again. She had already attempted suicide the first time, what would she do for the second?
Breathing heavily, she moved to the lobby with the rest of the crowd, sitting quietly in the corner away from the public eye.
Once again, Divine had moved to take what was hers. It was infuriating. And the worse part of it was that she didn't know why.
Why had her brother been killed for associating with the accursed "Black Rose Witch?" Why had he died so soon after joining the Arcadia Movement? And now… why had Konami been spirited away be the leader of said organization?
Each avenue she took only seemed to leave her with more questions, and she was beginning to grow tired of the game.
One thing however was certain. If each Avenue led to the Arcadia Movement, they had to be involved… as such, Misty would do anything and everything in her power to watch it burn… no matter the consequences.
-5D's-
"So, you've finally seen fit to arrive." Goodwin greeted, not bothering to face his visitors face to face.
Jack grunted, folding his arms in annoyance as he looked upon the man, "Just as you asked. Now, what is this all about?"
"It seems that we've come across a slight problem. As you know, the winner of this tournament was to receive an invitation to the Fortune Cup. But, with our Final Duelists… otherwise occupied… we can't exactly do that now can we?"
"And?" Jack asked, "Have the two losers of the Semifinals duel. I don't see why you needed me for this!"
"Ah but that's just it Jack." Goodwin smiled, "Neither of the remaining Semifinalists are in the condition to duel for the prize, though to be honest it matters little. You see, through much effort I have been able to locate our two Finalists, but I'm afraid I'll need your assistance. Somehow the two have found themselves in another realm. In order to retrieve them safely I'll need someone with your particular… talents."
"Another realm?" Mikage asked curiously.
Jack's glare once again worked its way to the surface, "Is this some kind of joke? You actually expect me to believe in all that rubbish?!"
"I had hoped you would assist quietly, but with you being who you are I suppose this is to be expected. No matter. Once you see the truth you will assist easily enough."
"Truth? What truth? That you've been wasting my time? I had a perfectly good cup of Blue Eyes White Coffee waiting back at my flat, when your "urgent" call interrupted my "me time!" I should have known it would be something silly like this!"
"Ah, so that's what this is about. Do not worry Jack. You'll have your Blue Eyes White Coffee soon enough." Goodwin promised, "For now…"
He pulled up his sleeve, grasping Jack's arm as a blinding red light enveloped the room. The world as they knew it slipped in and out of view, tendrils of black energy lashing about before consuming the group whole.
"What's happening? What is this?!" Jack shouted angrily.
"Director Goodwin… what have you done?" Mikage frowned.
"Seeing is believing Jack." Goodwin began, ignoring Mikage, "We have arrived in a realm between realms, a world of darkness and despair. This… "Shadow Realm" is where the most dangerous of all duels take place, with the competitors offering up their very lives and souls for the glory of victory. It is here where our Finals will occur."
"What…?"
"Ah, we have arrived!" Goodwin smiled, waving his arm to show his companions the view. The world as they knew it was gone, replaced with a swiveling blob of darkness that seemed to travel on endlessly.
"This is… the Shadow Realm?" Mikage asked, her knees trembling as she suddenly felt rather exhausted.
"Yes." Goodwin nodded, "As you can tell, this realm puts quite the drain on the average human's body. I'm surprised you've stayed awake for as long as you have, Mikage."
The woman frowned, her eyes narrowing slightly as her vision seemed to swim, "W-Wha…? No, I feel perfectly…." Her head drooped, sending her spiraling into the realm of unconsciousness.
"As I said, ordinary Duelists have no place here."
Saying nothing Jack bent down, picking the fallen secretary from the ground. He stared into the abyss, and made his decision.
"Lead the way Goodwin. But I'll expect you to explain things when this is over!"
"Of course Jack," Goodwin smiled, taking the first step towards their destination, "Of course."
-5D's-
"My turn! Draw!" Konami shouted, "I summon Evocator Chevalier in Attack Mode!"
Evocator Chevalier-LV4-(1900/900)
"That's all I can do for now, but next turn… you're definitely going down, Divine!"
"Fufufu… that's what they've all been saying. Why don't we skip the pleasantries and get back to the fun? My turn, Draw!"
Divine smiled, "I summon Element Dragon in Attack Mode!"
Element Dragon-LV4-(1500/1200)
"But that's not all. Because your Evocator Chevalier is a Fire Monster, my Element Dragon gains 500 Attack Points!"
Element Dragon-LV4-(2000/1200)
"Now, Element Dragon, destroy Evocator Chevalier!"
Konami growled, raising his arms to defend himself as his monster was blown off the board.
Konami- 7900 LP
Divine- 8000 LP
"Kukuku… not bad hm?" Divine asked, "But I'm not done yet! Next I'll activate the Spell Card Shifting Shadows! This card allows me to rearrange any face-down Defense Position monsters I might have on my side of the field once per turn by paying 300 Life Points!"
"A Continuous Spell Card…?" Konami grumbled, "So you're already trying to summon that huh…? I won't let you!"
Divine smirked, "That's what you say, but you don't even have anything to stop me. And you're about to have even less, because I'm activating another Spell Card, Ground Collapse!"
"What?!"
"Yes, another Continuous Spell! This one in particular allows me to seal off two Monster Card Zones on the field, and now neither of us can use those places! I'll finish off this turn by setting one card Face-Down."
"You're an egotistical little prick, aren't you?" Konami grimaced, "But just you wait, I'll be turning things around this turn! Draw!"
Glancing at the card, Konami smirked, "Heh… just what I needed! I'm summoning Gemini Summoner in Attack Mode!"
Gemini Summoner-LV4-(1500/0)
"A monster with 1500 Attack Points? Big deal."
"Oh it is, because we both know what happens when monsters with the same number of Attack Points battle each other. But lucky for me, Gemini Summoner gets one freebie! Once per turn, if the monster would be destroyed by battle, it isn't! So here we go! Gemini Summoner, do your thing and wipe Element Dragon off the field!"
Divine scowled, raising his arms as his measly dragon was suddenly speared through the gut. "So what, you're still down a hundred Life Points! That didn't hurt me at all!"
"You're right about that. But this Duel is only just getting started! That means there'll be a number of ways for me to beat you black and blue later on! I end my turn."
"Hmph, we'll see. My turn, Draw!" Narrowing his eyes, Divine continued into his play, "I summon Mirage Dragon to the Field in Attack Mode!"
Mirage Dragon-LV4-(1600/600)
"But just for an added bonus, I think I'll use this card! Behold, White Veil!"
"I knew it! You really are ripping off the Society of Light! Right down to the very cards! What's the matter Divine, the future's not good enough for you?"
"Ha! As if." Divine smirked, "Unlike the rest of this planet, I actually understand the worth of older cards."
"Evidently not. If you did, you'd have the sense not to use that card on such a weak monster."
Divine said nothing at this, settling for a meager smile. "Perhaps you are right, but for now… I'll have my veiled Mirage Dragon attack your Gemini Summoner!"
Konami- 7800 LP
Divine- 8000 LP
Konami winced as the battle led to Gemini Summoner's defeat, but he still wasn't out of the Duel yet. "You may have given me another hundred points of damage Divine, but don't forget! Because of my monster's effect, it doesn't leave the Field just yet!"
"Hmph," Divine smirked. "I understand. Now, as I move to the End Phase is there anything you want to do?"
Caught off guard Konami grimaced. "Yeah actually there is! I'm activating my Gemini Summoner's second ability! By paying 500 Life Points during your End Phase, I can Special Summon a Gemini Monster from my hand! So say hello to Blazewing Butterfly!"
A small insect with flaming wings materialized in the darkness, illuminating the area around them with ease.
Blazewing Butterfly-LV4-(1500/1500)
"I see. My turn ends."
Konami- 7300 LP
Divine- 8000 LP
"Then it's time for me to get things in gear!" Konami smirked, "Draw!"
He glanced at his hand. "Alright… let's see what I can do! I'm activating a Spell Card! Double Summon! This card allows me to Normal Summon an additional time this turn! And now that I can, it's time for me to light up this hellhole!"
"Oh? Do tell."
"With pleasure!" Konami grinned, "To start things off, I think I'll summon Penguin Soldier to the Field!"
Penguin Soldeir-LV2-(750/500)
"But he won't be staying around for long, because thanks to my Double Summon, I can tribute it and my Blazewing Butterfly to summon a new monster! Behold, Phoenix Gearfried!"
A hulking giant of white and red appeared on the Field in a pillar of flames, turning the land beneath him to ash.
Phoenix Gearfried-LV8-(2800/2200)
"Hm, interesting. A worthy monster indeed."
"Yeah, and he's about to show you just how worthy he is!" Konami shouted, "Phoenix Gearfried, light up that Mirage Dragon of his with Radiant Blaze!"
The warrior nodded, heaving his blade upwards before dashing forward, swinging towards the creature in an upwards arc. The veiled creature hissed, its blood spilling across the shadowy plains as the sword continued upwards, eventually cleaving the dragon in two.
"Che…!" Divine hissed, raising his arm angrily as the flames from the attack licked at his body.
Konami- 7300 LP
Divine- 6800 LP
"And don't forget pal," Konami smirked, "Because of that White Veil you so foolishly played, you take an additional 1600 points of damage!"
Hissing as a white light erupted from his Graveyard, Divine clutched at his heart as a veil-like substance plunged forward and tore through his chest. The man coughed blood, panting softly as he glared at the boy. "Heh… is that all?"
Konami- 7300 LP
Divine- 5200 LP
"Not at all!" Konami snarled, "Because in case you've forgotten, I still have my Gemini Summoner! Go, light him up!"
Gemini Summoner nodded, lunging forward and plowing his Gemini-charged fist into the man's gut. Divine hacked, sliding several feet backwards as he gripped the wound softly. "Ah… this is just as things should be. Truly, the pinnacle of Dueling lies right here! The pain, the emotion… it's all real! There is no greater pleasure…!"
Konami- 7300 LP
Divine- 3700 LP
"We'll see if your tone remains the same when your soul's lost to the shadows." Konami stated calmly, "I end my turn."
"That's unfortunate." Divine smirked, "Because now I'll be able to turn things back in my favor! Draw!" he glanced at the card, and smirked. "Now is the time… I activate my Face-Down Card, Dimensional Fissure!"
Konami's eyes widened. "I thought it was a trap… but it was Spell Card all along?!"
"And now that I have three Continuous Spell Cards on the Field, I can send them to the Graveyard to Special Summon my best monster!"
"Oh no…"
"The Skies darken under a midnight gaze! Searing Flames and dark Phantasms give way to the might of the storm! Behold! The Greatest of the Sacred Beasts rises once more! Appear Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder!"
The Shadow Realm shook and trembled as a golden pillar erupted behind Divine. The forces once held at bay by great seal were free at last, and in the darkness a single bolt struck down from the heavens.
Konami took a step back.
The Sacred Beast slowly appeared from the bleakest, darkest depths of the Realm, screaming and howling angrily as it took flight.
Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder-LV10-(4000/4000)
"This… is not good." Konami gulped.
-5D's-
"Is there still no news…?" Enzo frowned, folding his arms as he gazed up towards the screen.
"It doesn't look like it," Rathie pointed out, "That Sector Security girl hasn't been around lately either. Maybe she got a lead?"
"Bah, doubtful. Did you see her? She's probably a secretary at best!" Enzo paused, rubbing his chin in thought, "But you know, I wouldn't mind having a Secretary like that."
"It's comments like those that get you in trouble with women so often." Rathie sighed, "Besides, how could you possibly settle for something like that? Among women, there is only one that can truly fit the mold, all others cannot compare! I speak of-"
"-The Dark Magician Girl, yeah, yeah, I've heard it all before!" Enzo waved him off, "Why don't you try and find some real girls eh? But that's beside the point! There's still been nothing on what happened to Konami! You'd think that Sector Security would have found something by now…"
"It's only in movies that things go so smoothly. We'll be waiting a few weeks at least." Rathie thought aloud.
"A few weeks?!" Enzo snarled, "Konami doesn't have that kind of time! Who knows what that psychic freak could be doing to him right now! For all we know he could already be dead… or worse!"
"You worry too much. Konami's fine, trust me." Rathie grinned.
"Yes, you should be more supportive of those who waste their time with you." Misty started, taking a seat at their table.
"Huh? Misty? What're you doing back over here?" Enzo asked with a frown. Ever since the woman had taken to scaring him with fortunes, he had grown less comfortable in her presence, though his admiration for the model remained the same.
"I see no signs restricting my being here," she pointed out, "thus, I am free to move as I please."
"Well, yeah but…"
"If you have such time to inquire about my whereabouts, perhaps you should make better use of it to locate the whereabouts of To-Konami-san." She spoke fluidly. "I suggest you start the place he first disappeared, that being, the center of the stadium of course."
"Eh? Well, I'm not exactly saying it's a bad idea but…" Enzo frowned, turning to stare at the numerous Sector Security officers roaming the lobby, "how do you suppose we get through?"
"We will not be doing anything. You will be going to the men's restroom where there will happen to be a certain uniform in the third stall." Misty smiled inconspicuously.
"Erm… wait what?"
Rathie sighed, "While I'd like to ask just how you managed to come across this certain… uniform, I have a feeling that do so would not be in the best interest?"
"You would be correct."
"In that case…" Rathie stood, grabbing Enzo by the collar, "Come on lover boy, you said you wanted to go find out things yourself anyway right?"
"Huh? But Rathie I was just starting to get comfortable- OW!"
Misty smiled, crossing her legs gently as she watched the boys go. Sometimes it was far too easy to get what she wanted.
Once upon a time, the same could be said for Jack.
Goodwin and he had been walking for what seemed like hours, though Jack knew that it was an exaggeration. Still, the fact that they'd been walking forever and had yet to arrive at whatever destination Goodwin had in mind seemed to be rather… annoying, to be honest.
"Just how long have we been walking?" the King asked, "I hope you realize that I have no intention on following you unless I find that it's in my benefit!"
"Relax Jack," Goodwin smirked, "We've almost arrived."
"Impossible!"
"I assure you it is quite possible. All one needs to see as much is gaze upon the light."
"What?" Jack questioned, only then realizing what Goodwin was speaking of. A golden pillar had just emerged several yards from their location, a pillar Jack recognized as being eerily similar to those that appeared during his dragon's Synchro Summoning. "A Duel? Here?"
"Indeed. I think you and I are going to be the only spectators for this Finale."

"Hamon, attack Phoenix Gearfried! Cerulean Skyfire!" Divine laughed, the Sacred Beast roaring out in obedience.
Konami's eyes widened as his monster raised his sword defensively, as if attempting to prevent the inevitable outcome. In a flash of gold, the dark field was obliterated, taking Phoenix Gearfried with it.
Konami- 6100 LP
Divine- 3700 LP
"T-That was close… I nearly didn't get out of there in time!" Konami thought darkly, turning his attention back to Divine.
"Oh? You think it's over?" Divine laughed, "I'm afraid not Konami-kun. You seem to have forgotten of Hamon's Effect."
"Effect…?" Konami paused, "W-Wait a moment…" "Hamon can… every time he destroys a monster by battle…"
"It seems you remembered. It's time for you to take an additional thousand points of damage! Go Hamon! Obliterate our honored guest with your Striking Thunder!"
Hamon screeched, flapping its wings arrogantly as lightning flared and flashed around them. In an instant, several bolts connected above Konami, striking down on him in a single, horrid instant.
The teen cried out in pain, the lightning tearing through his body with ease and leaving it as a smoldering heap.
"G-Guh…" Konami grimaced, falling flat on his face as the pain overwhelmed him.
Konami- 5100 LP
Divine- 3700 LP
Shivering, the boy slowly made to grab his hand, "S-Shit…! That really took a lot out of me…! I don't think I can take another one of those!"
Divine chuckled. "That bad, hm? Fufufu… I expected more from you, Konami-kun."
Konami trembled, his body writhing in pain as he struggled to make a grimace. "T-This… Duel isn't o-over… yet!"
"Oh?"
"My Life Points…" Konami explained, taking several deep calming breaths as he slowly struggled to his knees, "They're… They're still higher than yours!"
"Really?" Divine's eyes widened, as if he was only just realizing as much, "So you believe you have the power to defeat the strongest of the Sacred Beasts? Fufu… you may be a pseudo-psychic but without my guidance you have no experience in using your abilities."
"Screw you and your psychic ego…!" Konami hissed, "You may be a great Psychic, and you may have Hamon… but you forget Divine, I have powerful cards too! Every card in my Deck has the power to best that overinflated ego of yours… and I'm not going down until I prove it!"
"Then rise," Divine's eyes gleamed, "rise so we may continue this excellent Duel! And Konami… try not to disappoint me."
The boy climbed back to his feet, taking several deep breaths before glaring at his enemy. "I won't."
The two stared at each other for the briefest of moments.
"My Turn! Draw!"
And that's the chapter! After a devastating blow from the Lord of Striking Thunder, Konami's body, and Confidence, has taken a big hit! Will he be able to keep it together as the Duel winds down to its conclusion, or will this mark the end of the reputable Red Hat?! Find out, next time, on Yu-Gi-Oh: Tag Force Chapter 12! Flight of the Valkyria!
