Gentlemen and ladies, I bring you chapter 19 and more important plots!
Cheers: Maxim the Knight for his OC and review. I'll put him in sooner so be patient. Also I'm done analyzing your posted deck.
Chapter 19: Wings of Absolution
Weekends, the academy's favorite day since they were the only holiday for a long endless term. Ki was fond of times like these since he get to spend more time startling Civil than ever. On the other hand, Civil gained Tyrule's humble pities. "Whatever…" is all Tyrule got in returns.
One activity Ki suddenly planned out today is swimming by the coast near the Slifer dorm. Civil followed suite. As they arrived to the dorm, Liner and Vaan were in their swimming trunks. They rushed to the coast and immediately, they dived.
Civil stood by and watched them swim. "C'mon Civ, take a dip!" called Liner.
"Whoa, I'm gonna sit this one out!" said Civil.
"Afraid?" taunted Vaan.
"Sort of… i think!" that was blunt. Usually people would deny their fears when they were taunted, but Civil somehow won this over. "Yeah, I guess." unsure of himself, he back away and sat by the coast.
"Well your lost!" said Ki as he continue on swimming.
Civil couldn't help but to stare at Ki's huge gash on his back. A scar perhaps during childhood. I kind of reminds him of a scar he had during childhood. But there was hardly a recollection came to him. As he buried himself deep into his whirlpool of memories, a voice familiar to him ranged.
"All alone here?" asked the voice.
Civil turned around from where he sat to see the figure with slender legs in leather thigh highs boots approaching. He raised his face and looked into the face belonged to none other than Yula WIlhelmia. "Miss Wilhelmia," he called.
"I notice you don't like to swim a lot," she began and sat beside him, "So, how's your memory coming."
"Still need some work." answered Civil, "I think I could only remember via dueling!"
"I see…" answered the teacher, "Well that's promising! Why don't we duel now?"
Civil sighed, "Sorry Miss, I'm in no mood now!"
Miss Wilhelmia gasped to her surprise, "What? Why not?"
Civil turned to her. Neck cracking aloud, eyes half closed which revealed several black rings around it and a large yawn which results a large crack to the jaws, Ough! is all Civil groaned. "Moody!" is all he answered.
"I… see…" she answered with some helpless despairs.
"Hey teach! Wanna join us?" asked Ki care freely as he called out.
Yula waved back and decline the offer. Disappointed, Ki turned to another corner. "What about you Byler?" he asked.
At the sound of that, both Liner and Vaan turned indignantly to see the red haired duelist. He stared from a distance and revealed himself as he advanced forward. "Is it… fine?" he asked.
"Sure, c'mon! Hey, can you make some waves? I think that'll even fun!" at that remark both Liner and Vaan already snuck out of the waters fearing the worst. They then nudge Civil and Miss Wilhelmia to follow them, to their bewilderments.
"Oh… ok…" he answered as he retrieve a card from his pouch. Big Wave Small Wave. He activated using his psychic powers. As the spell is played, the waters around Ki begin to move due to unbalanced seismic and created some waves. It was fine at first, but almost too soon, a tsunami washed Ki away by surprise. "Uh ow!" gasped Byler. Salvage. He activated. As it was played, the waves magically washed him back to the shore.
"Uh… huh!" Liner stared, jaws hanging.
Ki was gasping for once, then he suddenly exploded with joy. The quads watched him with narrow eyes.
"He's not human!" said Liner who gained everyone's nods and an "Affirm" from Civil.
The afternoon, Civil's favorite hour of the weekends. He could have the entire time out all by himself! Civil waltzed around the school corridors at ease. He checked the card stores. Knowing that he needed money to buy them, he sighed with despairs as he realizes that he is broke. "Story of my life!" he grunted.
Meanwhile, as Civil continued his grieves, Yula Wilhemia on the other hand was called into an essential meeting by Crowler. As she arrives, Crowler wasn't there. Odd, thought Yula, Crowler should be in his office if he wanted to see her. "Ah Miss Yula!" called the all so familiar voice belonged to Crowler.
"Dr. Crowler, may I kindly remind you not to surprise me like that again!" hissed Yula.
"My apologize Miss Yula," Crowler advanced to his seat, "Ahem, have you any idea why I called you?"
"No sir!"
"I had received intel that you have been hanging around with this Civil… 'Yip' Kenears recently." began Crowler.
"Yes sir, he's my student and also my patient after all," answered Yula in her 'as a matter of fact' tone.
"Dear me Miss Yula, your patient?" he asked.
"Yes, I found him lying in the back alley filled with injuries, what's more he had an amnesia!" explained Yula.
"Amnesia? Oh, I understand," said Crowler, "Is he doing better?"
"Most probably," she answered, "he is remembering somethings now. At least that's a good sign."
"Of course, sorry I doubted you!" Crowler bowed his head.
"Oh no, please don't be Dr. Crowler! It is normal to be doubtful," as humble as she is, Yula's manners as a lady are remarkable. "Is there anything else?"
"Oh yes," Crowler sat on his chair, "Earlier, a call came by. The caller just seem… annoying!" at that remark, Yula gained the idea of the caller at once, "He said something about 'The Big Blues'."
"Oh, don't worry about it, I'll take care of it!" implied Yula, "If there is nothing else, it shall be my dismiss." Yula bowed and left through the door.
Yula followed the path taking her to the east quarter of the island. As she ventured there, Civil who had passed by by chance stumbled upon her. He retreated into the shadows as he saw her going the east. He stalked.
Yula came to an opening on the greenland and stared straight to the seas. "C'mon out Rei! I know you're there!" at that remark. Civil saw the surface of the ocean frizzed at once as if it was an ice age. Is his mind playing tricks on him? He wondered.
In fact it wasn't his mind's fault. It was real! The ice thawed and revealed the ocean again. Then the following event occurred. An iceberg is floating towards the island. That's odd, thought Civil, icebergs usually melts under a temperature like this. Then… how?
In fact he realize the question is not how, but what is the question. Standing above the iceberg was a double sided pole-spear with one side thrusted into the ice. Lying against the spear was a person. He stood up, snatched the pole spear and leaped to the air.
"Let's surf!" is what Civil heard. He then saw him standing on the pole and watches him gliding on the ocean. Astonished by such supernaturals, Civil rubbed his eyes incase they were bluffing. Truthfully, they were not. As the figure glides, he leaves behind a trail of ice. Perhaps he created an ice path… somehow. The figure then make a huge leap to the air and landed inches away from Yula, "Thank you, thank you very much!"
"Lame!" spat Yula.
"Ah, that hurts Yula hun!" said the figure flirtatiously. The figure had shoulder length straight deep marine blue hair. He had on a worn tan sweater for winter seasons and long thick jeans. His eyes were marine like his hair, and had on a wide smile all the way. He seemed to have a happy go lucky attitude.
"You've nearly got our covers blown if you ever do make calls like that!" that was the first time Civil heard her being serious. "Anyway, what d'you want? Surely, 'GHOST' would make this matter urgent, judging the fact that he send you."
"Oh yes, WING he do!" said the figure, "Come here will you, Rei got a little something!" he said as if to a child. His hands were raised and above it. A frozen box took shape.
"I'm a 25 year old woman, thank you!" she growled. Before she could reach for the box, the man so called Rei retreated the frozen object. "What is it now?"
"Of course it's not for free!" he said with a glitter at the corner of his eyes and teeth which goes BLING, "I travelled far and wide, with no provisions nor rest, and finally here I am. So as reward for my hard work, can I get a kiss?"
THAT WAS DEADLY DAMN BLUNT, bellowed the inner Civil as he eavesdrop the conversation. Right now, his mind is in the verge of getting paranoid.
"Re-ei…" threatened Yula in an extremely serious tone. "You do realize what are you asking for?"
"A kiss, right? C'mon, don't be shy!" as happy as he goes, he did not realize that Yula gave him a smack in the face. "Okay, Okay, I'm just kidding!" said the happy go lucky man as he hands her the frozen package. As she touched it, it thawed at an instant. "Anyway, you got someone coming!" at that remark, Rei ran off to the shore. His pole spear bellow him, he leapt to the ocean in a crossed leg pose. "Chao!"
Civil put up a good poker face and walked out of the bushes. "Oh, Miss Wilhelmia." he called.
"Fancy seeing you here," she replied, "what are you doing?"
"Thought I look the island around," said Civil, "Then I stumble upon you and that… blue haired guy… who is he? Your boyfriend?"
"B-Boyfriend?" roared Yula with a surprised gasped, "WHY WOULD I BOTHER BEING WITH THAT WIERDO!" she was screaming unusually loud at Civil who shrugged away.
"I-I see… sorry!" apologized Civil, "Anyway, have you any time?"
"Oh, yeah I'm free now!" hiding the package away, she watches him as he brought out his deck. "Y-You want a duel? Now?"
"Yeah, I'm fine for a duel now!"
"Okay!" she readied her duel disk. "Come at me with all you got!"
"You don't have to tell me!" Civil slot his deck into the duel disk, "You're on!"
"DUEL!" at that remark, they both drew five cards.
Civil - 4000
Yula - 4000
"I'll take the lead! My draw!" Yula pulled her card and reveals it. "Not too bad," said Yula, "I'll pass my turn."
Civil bewildered at her remarks. "Ah well," he draws, "I bring out Level Eater (Level 1/Dark/Insect/Effect/600/0)!" a single stared ladybug appeared. "GO!" Civil declared an attack.
Civil - 4000
Yula - 3400
I end my turn with one card face down." as the card appeared, Yula loafs her arm.
"Splendid! You ought to need that! Because I can perform a One Turn Kill anytime I want!" she warned, "My turn!" Yula make her draw. "Now I shall begin with one of my favorites, I summon Blackwing - Sirocco the Dawn (Level 5/Dark/Winged-Beast/Effect/2000/900)" A warrior winged beast appeared, "When I had no monsters on my field and when my opponent does, I can perform a normal summon for him without any tribute!" she explained.
"Figures," said Civil.
"There's more! I special summon Blackwing - Bora the Spear (Level 4/Dark/Winged-Beast/Effect/1700/800)," a winged beast holding a spear appeared"When I control a Blackwing monster, I can simply speical summon him!" explained Yula, "Another! Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind (Level 3/Dark/Winged-Beast/Effect/1300/400) special summon!" another winged beast appears, "Like Bora, he can be special summoned to the field when I control a Blackwing monster other than himself."
"Three!" gasped Civil, "Activate defense! Gravity Bind, Continuous Trap! This card prevents all monsters whose level are 4 or above from attacking!" roared Civil in resistance to threats.
"Oh I know, but here's more! I activate the effect of Gale! Once per turn, I can halve the attack and defense of one face up monster my opponent controls!" the winged beast flaps his wings and summoned a whirlwind. The wind knocked the ladybug off balance and flipped it around (300/0)
"No freaking, joke!" gasped Civil.
"Oh wait, I'm not done!" Yula drew a breath and continued, "I activate Sirocco's effect! I can combine the attack of all Blackwing monsters on my side of the field and concentrate them to one Blackwing monster, however, only that one monster can attack this turn!" As she played the effect, Civil gasped. The warrior liked winged beasts gathered their powers at one the only one. The winged-beast growled as it filled with power (5000/400).
"5000… that really going to hurt!" blurted Civil.
"Now prepare yourself! Gale!" the winged beast flew and flapped its wings.
"CEASEFIRE!" bellowed Civil as he panics, "Activation Battle Fader (Level 1/Dark/Fiend/Effect/0/0)!" As Civil played the card, a creature appeared and let out an agonizing sound wave which made the winged beast screeched and pulled back.
"Whoa! There goes my one turn kill!" she said, "Anyway, I'll set one card and call it the end of my turn!"
Civil sighed with relieves. "Safe," at that remark, the insect regained its balance (600/0). "Okay, here goes the big bet!" Civil draws. As he reveals the card, another flash came to him, this time, he could not hear a single word.
He remembered falling off a motor boat by accident during his younger age. Then he gurgled his way up to the surface. But ironically, he keep sinking like a lead in waters. Civil then remember how dark the abyss is as he sinks. There was something else he remembers as he is dragged. But what is it, he could not remember…
Civil snapped back to reality as the images ceased.
"Now then, where was I?" asked Civil as he scanned his hands again. "Ah, right!" Civil picked his cards, "I bring out Fleur Synchron (Level 2/Light/Machine/Tuner/400/200)!" a flower looking creature appeared, "Next I play Tuning! This card allows me to search my deck for one tuner monster with Synchron in its name." Civil adds one of the cards in hims deck to his hands, "Here's one, my favorite Quickdraw Synchron!" as Civil adds the card to his hands, he shuffles it and re-slots it. "However, the price for playing it is that I send my top most card to the graveyard." Civil send the top most card, revealing a hedgehog to the graveyard.
"Now here's next! I bring out Quickdraw Synchron (Level 5/Wind/Machine/Tuner/700/1400) by sending one monster to the graveyard!" He discarded, "I can bring him to their field, no biggy!" at that remark, a cow boy appeared, "Now, Level 2 Fleur Synchron, Level 1 Level Eater, and Level 1 Battle Fader! Tuning!" The flower bud unleashed 2 sparks which resolved into circles. The two monsters leapt into the circles and become sparks themselves. Then, an arm appeared, "Armory Arm (Level 4/Light/Machine/Synchro Effect/1800/1200)!"
"Oh, I'm not finished, I activate the effect of Fleur Synchron! When I used this card as a Synchro Material monster, I can special summon a Level 2 or lower monster from my hands!" Civil picks a card out of his two. "I have just the one! The Calculator (Level 2/Light/Machine/Effect/?/0) come here!" at that remark, a red calculator like monster appeared (3300/0), "Another, when Battle Fader is special summoned just like earlier, he gets removed from play when he leaves the field!"
"Okay, what's next?"
"What's next is this, Quillbolt Hedgehog (Level 2/Earth/Machine/Effect/200/200) effect activate! When a tuner monster is on my field while I can bring him back." said Civil. The bolted hedgehog came to the field. "Also, I activate Level Eater's effect!" the ladybug returned to the field as it passes through the cowboy (Level 4). "You got the picture! Come, Synchro Summon, Level 4 Quickdraw Synchron, Level 1 Level Eater, Tuning!" At that remark, a warrior with a big brawl appeared, "Junk Warrior (Level 5/Dark/Warrior/Synchro Effect/2300/1300), compliments of my deck!"
"Oh, I know his effect, figures why you summon all those Level 2 monsters," said Yula in her calm voice.
"Yes, Junk Warrior gains a boost from all combined attack of level 2 or lower monsters on my field, right now on my field consist of Quillbolt Hedgehog (200) and The Calculator (3900/0), so, the attack of Junk Warrior is raised to 7000!" Civil inclined as the warrior is boosting with power (6400/1300)!
"Even so, with your Gravity Bind, your warrior cannot attack since he is level 5." reminded Yula.
"Normally true, but! If they transfer to a weaker one…"
"…then you can attack!" Yula realized this as she did the same before. "In other words, you're going to transfer all your attack points to one monster and go on with one blast!"
"Yes, here's the card that help them out! Activation Gift to the Mathyr, this card requires me to sacrifice a monster on my field," the warrior disappears, "Then, the sacrificed monster's attack points gets transferred to another!" This time, the calculator grows in wattage of electricity. The numbers increased to 8800. "Here's another, I activate the effect of Armory Arm, I can equip it one of my monsters and provide 1000 points of attack, another, when the monster equipped with this card destroy one of your monsters, you take damage equals to the destroyed monster's attack points!" The arm itself attached to the calculator (8600).
"Hey, that's over kill!" gasped Yula.
"It's true, I was only showing you my style of one turn kill!" Civil raised his hands, "Any last words?" he asked.
"Yeah, you win!" admitted Yula.
"Sure, that'll do!" Civil lowered his hands at Yula, "Lights out!" The calculator raised its reinforced arm at the winged beast. A zap hits it, electrocuting it and explodes.
Civil - 4000 Win
Yula - 0 Lose
"Perfect Victory!" finished Civil as he snaps his fingers.
"Well done Civil," clapped Yula. Something tells Civil that she was just going easy on him. Civil realized the powers of a Blackwing deck is not to be underestimated. Still, whatever her reasons are, Civil just ignores them.
"Hey thanks," he answered.
"Off you go now Civil, I need sometime alone now." said Yula. Civil nodded in replies and turns away. He followed the path back to his dorm.
As Yula remained in solitudes, she unopened the package. Within the package, there contains the photos of some people.
One of them reveals a man, like Civil, had yellowish skin of an Asian. But he had a mole on his lower left cheek. Another contains the image of a British who looked somewhat handsome. The next photo contains the picture of an old balding man with blindfolds covering his eyes to the forehead. He looked very old and had long white beard. Last but not least, Yula gasped at the image of the next photo. The image contains Civil.
Behind the photos were messages. Civil's photo contains the message in gold:
All will underestimate the weak, but not will the Emperor,CAUTION!
The British young man contained the message written in silver:
Regrets is all there is, when one faces the power of Cosmic, DANGER!
The photo of an old man contains a bronze message:
He knows the coming, thus shall he commence the same like Ragnarok, ALERT!
And finally, the last photo containing the other Asian. This one was written in blood:
None shall stand nor survive the man called Immortal, BEWARE!
"Emperor… Cosmic… Ragnarok… Immortal…" she gasped. "Written in capitals too… 'GHOST', just who are they?" she asked and stared to the distant seas. At that remark, the island suddenly trembled with hazardously unstable. Yula fell to her back and heard the intercom announcement:
"ALL STUDENTS GATHER AT THE ASSEMBLY HALL IMMEDIATELY! ALL STUDENTS GATHER AT THE ASSEMBLY HALL IMMEDIATELY!" it repeated, "ALL TEACHERS ARE TO ACCOMPANY EVERY STUDENTS AS WELL!"
Yula took that as her queue to return to the academy. Just what is going on? she wondered.

Recommended for a deck focused on synchro summoning. This card can be used to replace Negate Attack. You can also use this card to catch your opponent off guard when you have no cards face down to protect yourself.

Another note: NEVER underestimate the Blackwing deck!
End Card Review
Yes, its a washed down deck NOW! But I promise all of you that the Blackwing deck will be better in the next duel. This one is only based on the OTK for half Life Points. Well... more of my OCs... also I need someone to give me a deck recipe. I have a lot in mind already, so i will pick those that are new to me. Cheers to Maxim the Knight again.
