Chapter 14: Mind Tricks

-ooo-

Back at Tatyana's room, she and her family were talking to Mefist about the loss of Chopman.

Tatyana then replied, "So, Chopman was defeated and the last attack by Dirk's monsters reduced him to ash as well?"

Mefist then replied, "Yes, madam. I take the full blame for his loss."

"Why? I was going to execute him myself anyway."

Tyrone laughed and replied, "I'm so glad that idiot is finally gone! Never, ever, ever liked him in the first place and no one here liked him at all. All he did was bitch all day and wanted us to cater to his every need! Good riddance!"

Mefist then replied, "So, I'm being rewarded then?"

Tatyana then replied, "Damn right you are, Mefist. He's no long apart of this world, so take the next few days off for a little vacation."

"Thank you."

He vanished into a thick cloud of black smoke and Tatyana looked at Trevor and replied, "Where are they going now?"

"Probably towards the wind fortress now. We control the base right now."

"Good to here. Did he get that number we sent it the other day?"

"Yes, mother."

"Then everything is finally going our way then."

-ooo-

In the war room, Darrien and Freed were about to announce where the next fortress was.

Kristen then replied, "Come on."

Suddenly, a section of the map that was about 10 miles south of the city and Darrien replied, "Its the Wind Fortress!"

Tiffany then replied, "Nice! I'm dueling the leader myself."

"It says here its right above the La Casita Air Force base and you need to go there first."

Kelly then replied, "How could the fortress be above it?"

Freed then replied, "Because it a floating fortress for the winds, young lady. You need a transport from that that base to get to the Fortress."

Kelly then replied, "Awesome."

Dirk sighed and replied, "It would be easy..if the base wasn't runned by those damn Fangs. They went in and took them all hostages and won't leave now until someone duels the current leader of the base!"

Kristen then replied, "I guess we'll be dueling all the way there I guess!"

Kelly then replied, "Sounds like fun to me."

Melanie then replied, "Rick had a first duel the other night and defeated a Fang and recovered a Number as well!"

Kristen looked at him and replied, "Congrats on your first win, bro. Too bad we couldn't be there to see you kick a fang's butt."

Rick then replied, "It's okay, sis. I did the best I could and thats all I can do."

Darrien then replied, "He's a good duelist with one of the most intresting decks I've ever seen in my days."

Rochelle then replied, "He saved my life and I'm still greatful to this day."

"I'm glad I could help."

Darrien then replied, "You should probably head to the base in the morning, young lady. Your guide will be here in the morning to help you there."

Kristen then replied, "I'm guessing its going to beat the windy brother of Shore Knight?"

"How'd you know?"

"Lucky guess."

Darrien smiled and replied, "We hired the each of them to lead you to the fortresses and back safetly. We're doing good right now and we don't need anything to ruin our hard work we've done so far."

Tiffany then repleid, "Are the charmers their sisters then?"

Dirk then replied, "Once again, you are right. Doriado is the mother of them and the knights. She takes well care of her children."

Darrien then replied, "Its about 9:30 right now, so I'll be heading to bed and the rest of you should too."

Kristen yawned and replied, "Good idea. Its been a long damn day."

-ooo-

Meanwhile that night outside of the village's north entrance, a man wearing a police officer's outfit was looking at the large gate and it said Detective on his badge, but it wasn't known where he was from at all.

He then replied, "This is the city of La Casita, eh? Likes like a decent city with no signs of evil or darkness."

Suddenly, he held his head in pain and then he shook his head and replied, "Damn headache. It thought that mess was done and over with. I need to get back to my hometown and tell them all about this island. There is evil, but I don't know where it is."

He slowly walked to the large gate and it opened and he walked inside.

-ooo-

That next day after breakfast, the girls and Darrien were at the gate, waiting for the knight to come in and lead them to the base.

Darrien then replied, "Where is he?"

Dirk then replied, "He won't let us down, sir. I know he won't."

Suddenly, the powerful knight of the winds walked towards them (ATK: 1,400).

Dirk smield and replied, "Welcome, Altitude Knight. Glad you're to escort these lovely ladies to the base."

The knight saluted him and replied, "Its a true honor to work for you, sir. I'm here to guide them to success and hopefully watch them take back the base for us to use again, sir."

"Glad I have a warrior like you to help us out."

Rick then replied, "I wish I could go too, but I want to stay behind and help out here."

Kristen then replied, "Good idea to help out as much as I can, bro. Its a great idea."

The gang turned the other way and left the village through the gate and Darrien sighed and replied, "Get our base back, ladies. We need all the locations we can get for when those idiot fangs came back."

Rochelle then replied, "Dad, they won't let us down at all. We need to believe in them."

"Very true, Rochelle. Very true."

Dirk then replied, "I have a great idea. We have lunch at that new New Orleans-style cafe that opened up near the center of town two days ago, Darrien. They serve seafood boils, po-boys and all sorts of New Orleans style of foods."

Melanie then replied, "Sounds good to us if Darrien is game."

Darrien smiled and replied, "Lets go enjoy some tasty food from the big easy then."

-ooo-

About a hour or so after, the girls were enjoying some granola bars and sports drinks at a small picnic area.

Altitude Knight then replied, "So my little brother and Elsa are dating now? Awesome. He always had a thing for her and Hopefully it can work out well."

Kristen nodded and replied, "I hope so too. They're a cute couple and they don't want to be apart at all."

Tiffany then replied, "I hope it works out."

As they continued to talk, the same person that was outside of the gate the night before was right there with a backpack on his back and a duel disk on his arm and he saw the gang and he walked over to them and Kristen then replied, "Hello and can we help you?"

The man smiled and replied, "Hopefully so. I'm Detective Sebastian Castellanos."

Kristen then replied,"I'm Kristen and this my sister Kelly and new best friend Tiffany."

The girls nodded to him and Tiffany replied, "You a detective for World Island?"

"Actually, I'm not. I'm from the states where I moved from Krimson City, Arizona and now living in the beautiful city of Denver, Colorado. Cold in the winter and beautiful during the summer."

Tiffany then replied, "Wait, isn't Krimison City the sight of that brutal massacre at that hospital about 5 years ago?"

Sebastian sighed and replied, "Yes and two of my former allies went in and everything went to hell afterwards."

Kristen sighed and replied, "I heard about the loss of your daughter and your wife disapearing as well. Its hard and I'm sorry I Brought those memories up, sir."

"Its okay, young lady. I came here to help out World Island in anyway I can."

He saw Kristen's Duel disk and he replied, "Want to duel me to past some time? I was the top duelist in Denver two years in a row."

She quickly got up and replied, "You got a duel!"

She got up and stood across from him in the road and both duelists activated their duel disks and drew 5 cards apiece.

"Ready for this?"

"Damn right I am."

"Game on!", both duelists yelled out

(Sebastian LP: 8000 - Kristen LP: 8000)

Kristen then replied, "Start us off, Detectivie."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "Just call me Sebastian, ladies. I'll set a monster and thats my turn now."

Kristen drew a card and replied, "I summon my Axe Raider!"

As she sat the card down, the axe-using barbarian appeared (ATK: 1,700).

"Attack his facedown monster with Axe Crush!"

The warrior went in and a tiny scientist with a large metal helmet appeared on the card (DEF: 100) and with one slash of his axe, blasted it into pixels and Sebastian then replied, "When Doctor Cranium is destroyed, I can pay 800 lifepoints to add any Psychic monster from my deck to my hand."

As he glowed (Sebastian LP: 8000 - 7200), he took a monster from his deck and placed it in his hand.

Tiffany then replied, "Psychic monsters. Tricky to use, but powerful if used right."

"Okay then. I'll set a card and that'll end my turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I activate Nobleman of Extermintion."

The spell appeared and the knight appeared and jammed his sword into the facedown card and the Warrior's Pride card lifted up and shattered to little bits and then she sighed as she took 2 more copies from her deck and banished them as well.

"Next, I bring out my Psychic Snail."

As he sat the card down, a large snail-like psychic appeared (ATK: 1,900).

"I now attack your Warrior."

The mighty snail began to glow and a burst of energy shot and struck, blowing Axe Raider to particles (Kristen LP: 8000 - 7800).

"There you go. I'll set a card and that'll end my turn now."

Kristen drew a card and replied, "I'll set a new monster facedown and that'll end my turn now."

Sebasitan drew a card and replied, "I Summon my Pandaborg next."

As he sat the card down, the metal panda-like psychic appeared (ATK: 1,700).

"Next, I'll pay 800 lifepoints to allow my Pandaborg to attack twice."

He glowed again (Sebastian LP: 7200 - 6400) and then replied, "Pandaborg, attack."

The panda-like monster went in and a Warrior Lady of the Wasteland appeared (DEF: 1,200) and it kicked her, blowing her into pixels and then a 2nd one appeared (ATK: 1,100) and the panda punched it and then she shattered into little shards (Kristen LP: 7800 - 7200) and then a 3rd one appeared (ATK: 1,100).

"Fine by me then. I activate my facedown Psychic Rejuvenation. I gain 1000 lifepoints for each Psychic on the field now."

He glowed (Sebastian LP: 6400 - 8400) and then he replied, "I'll end my turn now."

Kristen drew a card and replied, "I tribute her for my Freed the Matchless General!"

As she vanished into particles of light, the mighty General appeared (ATK: 2,300).

Sebastian then replied, "You have a really good deck, young lady."

"Thank you. Attack his Pandaborg now."

The mighty warrior went in and slashed with his sword, blowing Pandaborg to shards (Sebastian LP: 8400 - 7800).

"There you go. I end my turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I'll switch my Snail to defense and then I'll set a new monster facedown and 1 card facedown and that'll end my turn now."

Kristen drew a card and replied, "I summon my Gearfried!"

As he sat the card down, the mighty knight appeared (ATK: 1,800).

"Lets do it. Freed, attack!"

The mighty general went and made a savage cut with his sword, blowing Psychic Snail to bits.

"Attack his facedown monster now!"

The mighty warrior went and a large sphere of black energy appeared (DEF: 2,000) and he struck it with his sword and it did nothing to it (Kristen LP: 7200 - 7000) and she groaned and replied, "Damn it. I end my turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I summon my Genetic Woman."

As he sat the card down, a psychic wearing black spots appeared (ATK: 1,500).

"Now since my PsiCube is a tuner, I can tune both of them together."

Suddenly, the cube split into a single white star and the star turned into bunch of green rings and the rings went through Genetic Woman, which split into 4 white stars.

"I Synchro Summon..Magical Android."

As he sat the card down, one of the more well-known psychic monsters appeared (ATK: 2,400).

Tiffany then replied, "A well-known psychic."

"It sure is. Attack her Freed."

She aimed her scepter and a launched a burst of fireballs and they shot and struck, blowing Freed to little triangles (Kristen LP: 7000 - 6900).

"There you go. I'll set a card and then I'll move to my end phase and I gain 600 lifepoints for each Psychic on the field."

He glowed again (Sebastian LP: 7800 - 8400) and then he replied, "That'll end my turn now."

Kelly then replied, "Man, she's having issues draining his lifepoints."

Tiffany nodded and replied, "With Psychic decks, you'll need all the points you can get, Kelly."

Kristen drew a card and replied, "I'll switch Gearfried to defense and then I'll set a monster facedown and 1 card facedown and that'll end my turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I summon my Destructotron."

As he sat down, a machine-like psychic and it had a monitor with somesort of head (ATK: 1,700).

"Next, I'll drain 1000 lifepoints to destroy your facedown card."

As he glowed once more (Sebastian LP: 8400 - 7400), the mechanical psychic fired a burst of energy and it shot and atomized her facedown Mirror Force.

"Knew it. Destructotron attacks your Gearfried."

The psychic powered up and launched a burst of energy that shot out and atomized the Iron Knight.

"Magical Android attacks your facedown monster."

She launched a burst of hot flames again and a Little Winguard appeared on the card (DEF: 1,800) and was reduced to a hot pile of ash when the flames struck it.

"I move to my end phase to gain my lifepoints and thats my turn."

He glowed again (Sebastian LP: 7400 - 8600).

Kelly then replied, "Man, this guy is doing great with his deck."

Tiffany then replied, "She can beat him."

Kristen drew a card and replied, "I summon my Marauding Captain and with his ability, Tune Warrior!"

As she sat the cards down, the Captain appeared (ATK: 1,200) right next to a robot-like tuner (ATK: 1,600).

"I now tune them together!"

Tune Warrior glowed as it split into 3 white stars, which turned into green rings and the rings went through Marauding Captain, which turned into 3 white stars.

"I Synchro Summon...Gaia Knight, the Force of Earth!"

As she sat the card down, the mighty knight on the horse appeared (ATK: 2,600).

Tiffany then replied, "That's what she needed."

"Now, attack his Magical Android!"

The mighty knight went and stabbed her in the stomach with his spear and she gasped in pain before she burst into globules of light (Sebastian LP: 8600 - 8400) and then sparks flew from the Destructron before it collasped into a pile of broken metal.

Tiffany then replied, "He needs to keep a psychic on the field to keep him on the field."

"Take that! I end my turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "Your one of the toughest duelists I've had and this is only my 3rd duel."

Tiffany then replied, "Duel any of the Dark Fangs?"

"Two of them actually and both were pathetic. Next, I activate my facedown Psychic Overload. I return 3 Psychic monsters to my deck and I get to draw twice."

He took his PsiCube, Psychic Snail and Destructotron and shuffled them back into his deck and drew 2 new cards and he replied, "I'll set a monster and that'll end my turn now."

Kristen drew a card and replied, "I summon my Blue Flame Swordsman!"

As she sat the card down, the Blue-Flamed Warrior appeared (ATK: 1,800).

"Lets do it. Attack his facedown monster, Swordsman!"

The mighty warrior rushed in and a Krebons appeared (DEF: 800) and he replied, "I'll negate your attack with 800 lifepoints."

As he glowed (Sebastian LP: 8400 - 7600), a wall of purple energy blocked him.

"Do you want to use it again?"

Gaia Knight went and the barrier went up once more (Sebastian LP: 7600 - 6800).

"Guess so. Your turn now, Sebastian."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I'll summon my Psi-Beast now."

As he sat the card down, a large wolf-like creature with green hair appeared with a snarl (ATK: 700).

"I use its ability to banish a Psychic monster from my deck and it'll gain the level."

He took a Psychic called Telekinetic Shocker and banished it and it glowed (LV: 2 - 4).

"I now tune Krebons with him now."

The dark psychic began to laugh like crazy as it split into 2 white stars, which turned into green rings and the rings went through Psi-Beast, which turned into 4 white stars.

"I Synchro Summon...Psychic Nightmare."

As he sat the card down, a ugly and winged fiend-like Psychic appeared (ATK: 2,400).

"I I'll use his effect to select a card in your hand at random and guess what it is. I'm picking the far right as a..spell card."

She sighed as she turned the card around and it was a The Warrior Returning Alive spell card (ATK: 2,400 - 3,400).

"Now, attack her Gaia Knight with Nightmare Brainwave."

It glowed with darkness as a huge ring of energy shot out and vaporized the mighty knight (Kristen LP: 6900 - 6100) and then he replied, "Your turn now."

He took Magical Android's card and banished it and then he replied, "When She's destroyed, I get her back."

Kelly groaned and replied, "He's good. I hope my sis can get a win."

Tiffany then replied, "She can do it. She beat Elsa in her 2nd duel after she used a great deck."

Altitude Knight then replied, "She's a tough duelist to beat as well. Kristen needs to focus on her deck more."

"I now attack your Swordsman with my Silent Psychic Wizard."

He went and struck the Swordsman with his attack and he shattered into a blue fiery embers and then the real Flame Swordsman appeared and knelt (DEF: 1,600).

"I now attack him."

As she sat the card down, the mighty mage of Xyz Summons appeared (ATK: 1,500).

"Since I have a level 4 monster, I special summon my Kagatokage!"

"I now overlay them both now!"

Both monsters turned into glittering white orbs and a portal opened up, which they flew into.

"I use these monsters to build the Overlay Network and Xyz Summon! Appear before me..Zubaba General!"

As she sat the card down, the warrior with the large sword appeared (ATK: 2,000).

"I now remove 1 Xyz Material monster to equip him with a warrior from my hand!"

As she took the Kagatokage and discarded it, Dark Blades dark armor appeared on him (ATK: 2,000 - 3,800).

"Lets do it. Attack his Psychic Nightmare!"

The mighty warrior went and cleaved the mighty Psychic right down the middle with his mighty sword. The two pieces were blasted into tiny shards (Sebastian LP: 6800 - 5400).

Kristen smiled and replied, "Take that! I end my turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I'll set a monster and switch my Silent Psychic Wizard to defense postion and that'll end my turn now."

The silent wizard knelt.

"Lets do it. General, attack!"

The mighty general went in and a 2nd PsiCube appeared on the card (DEF: 2,000) And the mighty warrior smashed it to pieces with a swipe of his sword.

"Swordsman, attack!"

The mighty warrior went in and slashed at the Psychic with his swords and she just stood and shattered into pixels without making a sound and then Magical Android appeared again and knelt (DEF: 1,700) and he made two swipes of his sword again and she burst into triangles.

"When Gagaga Swordsman destroys a monster and you control another one, It can attack again. Your turn now, Sebastian."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I activate the spell Teleport."

Suddenly, it appeared on the field.

"I use it and pay 800 lifepoints to special summon my Genomix Fighter from my hand."

As he sat the card down and glowed (Sebastian LP: 5400 - 4600), a mighty Warrior-like Psychic appeared (ATK: 2,200).

"I Synchro Summon..Thought Ruler Archfiend."

Tiffany then replied, "That was Sayer's most powerful Psychic monster he ever owned."

"Next, I play Mystical Space Typhoon."

The storm began and the equipped Dark Blade shattered into shards (ATK: 3,800 - 2,000).

"I Now attack your Zubaba General now."

Suddenly, it began to glow.

"Now, I don't have to pay to use its special ability now. Your turn now."

Kelly groaned and replied, "Once again, he's back to his full lifepoints."

Tiffany nodded and replied, "Sebastian has a really great Psychic deck. I think its really well-made and quite powerful as well."

Kristen drew a card and replied, "I activate Silent Doom."

Suddenly, Axe Raider appeared and knelt (DEF: 1,150).

"Fine with me. Valkyrian Knight, attack!"

The fiery knight swung his sword and a wave of hot flames shot out and reduced the snail to a hot pile of ash.

"Your turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I'll pay 800 lifepoints to bring Master Gig from my hand."

As he glowed again (Sebastian LP: 6200 - 5400), a huge floating psychic monster appeared while floating above ground (ATK: 2,600).

"Next, I'll play Hidden Armory."

He took the top card of his deck (Which was a monster called Psychic Jumper) and discarded it and then he took a equip spell from his deck and then he quickly played and Master Gig was now covered in the same energy field Thought Ruler Archfiend was.

"Next, I summon my Brain Injector."

As he sat the card down, a small brain hooked up to some wires appeared (ATK: 500).

"I now use his ability. Usually it costs 1000 lifepoints to use, but my equip spell prevents me from having to pay it. Now I can destroy monsters you control equal to the number of Psychics I have."

As it glowed, a huge burst of energy shot out from the huge psychic and it shot out and struck, blowing Ganbara Commando and Valkyrian Knight to little pieces.

"Next, I equip my Brain Injector to him."

Suddenly, the brain flew into the air and it its wires shot and went into the huge Psychic's head.

"Any damage a Psychic monster does while equipped to it is added to my lifepoints. Attack her directly."

He glowed and launched another brutal burst of mental energy and shot out and struck her, knocking her on her back (Kristen LP: 5400 - 2800) and then he glowed (Sebastian LP: 6200 - 8800).

"Your turn now, young lady."

Kristen slowly got up and then she drew a card and replied, "I play Harpie's Feather Duster!"

Sebastian quickly replied, "I chain that to my Emergency Provisions."

Suddenly, the two spells shattered into glowing shards and then the Brain Injector shattered into the same shards and they all flew into Sebastian's body (Sebastian LP: 8800 - 11800).

Kelly then replied, "Pardon my french, but this shit is getting crazy! She only has 2800 lifepoints while he has over 11000 lifepoints to spare! This is not good at all."

Tiffany sighed sadly and replied, "I agree with you right now, Kelly. She needs to do something and quickly."

"I'll set a monster and 1 card facedown and that'll end my turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I'll set a monster and I'll attack."

the huge giant fired its energy attack and a Obnoxius Celtic Guardian appeared on the card (DEF: 1,200) and he blocked the attack with his sword.

"I won't use his effect. I'll set a card and its your turn now."

As she sat the card down, the fiery Warrior appeared (ATK: 1,600).

"I now tune my 2 monsters together!"

Rose glowed as she split into 4 white stars, which turned into green rings and the rings went through the Guardian, which turned into 4 white stars. As this was happening, Kristen opened her arms, closed her eyes and began to chant:

"The King's determination is conceived with a crimson blade ablaze fires of red! Appear from beyond the burning heat waves! Synchro Summon! The Burning Fierce God, Crimson Blader!"

As she sat the card down, a fiery warrior appeared (ATK: 2,800).

"Attack directly!"

"Take that! I end my turn now."

Sebastian drew a card and replied, "I play Fiend's Sanctuary."

Suddenly, the token appeared (ATK: 0).

"I tribute it for my Psychic Emperor."

As the token vanished, a aged old psychic appeared (ATK: 2,400).

"I now gain 500 lifepoints for each Psychic monster in my graveyard now."

He glowed once more (Sebastian LP: 7400 - 13400).

Kelly then replied, "If he gains anymore lifepoints, I'm going to scream while in my underwear and right here!"

Tiffany sighed as she nodded and replied, "Me too. This is getting more and more crazy."

"Next, I play Double Summon to bring out my PsiSphere."

As he sat the card down, a large blue sphere appeared (ATK: 0).

As he sat the card down, a large dragon-like fairy with a mighty roar (ATK: 2,100).

Kelly gulped and replied, "She's screwed now."

Tiffany then replied, "Yep, so true."

"Since I have more points then you, it gains ATK equal to the difference between our lifepoints."

Suddenly, it began to glow with a intense light (ATK: 2,100 - 12,700).

Kristen then replied, "Damn it."

"Afraid this is the end, young lady. Attack his Crimson Blader."

The huge fairy began to glow and then a launched a huge burst of light and shot and struck, blowing Crimson Blader to pieces in a fiery explosion of light as it struck him and knocked Kristen on her back once more (Kristen LP: 2800 - 0).

Kelly groaned and replied, "That was hard to watch."

Sebastian walked over to her and helped her to her feet and she smiled and replied, "Really awesome deck you have there, Sebastian."

He smiled at him and replied, "Thanks, girl. You have a decent warrior deck."

Kristen then replied, "Want us to help you back to the village, sir? We can head back and then head to your location."

Sebastian then replied, "That would be great. Lets go."

They all started to head towards the city and they didn't know that Ansatsu was watching and recording the duel with the I-Pad Tatyana gave to use on recon mission and she nodded and replied, "We might need to watch this guy."

She laughed as she vanished into a cloud of black smoke.

Another loss for the team, but the city and the gang gain a new ally now. In the next chapter, they head to the Air Base and they duel the current leader of it (Who is very famillar to them) to get it back under the control of the city and Kelly duels with her dragon army. Can she get the win and the base back? Find out in the next chapter I'm calling "Heavy Artillery" and it'll be coming soon.
