"Mon Cherrie, prepare to say au revoir," said Pierre. *He races off and finds her an hour later*
"Who are you?" asked Mai.
"Mon nom est Pierre," said Pierre. I have come to duel for your love.
"What are you talking about?" asked Mai. You hardly seem like someone I'd be interested in!
"Au contraire," said Pierre. I will change that when I win.
"Nice try, lover boy," said Mai. I'm not interested.
"Oh no?" asked Pierre. I think you are for I have your Harpie's Feather Duster card!
"How on earth did you get into my deck?" asked Mai.
"I will only hand it over to you if you win, mon amie," said Pierre. Now let's duel!
"With pleasure," said Mai. I play Cyber Harpie Lady (1800) in Attack Mode. Since she's treated as Harpie Lady, I use Elegant Egotist to bring out Harpie Lady Sisters (1950) in Attack Mode. Finally, I set 2 cards face down to end my turn. (0)
"Awesome, Mai brought two monsters out on her first turn!" said Joey.
"Magnefique," said Pierre. However, I have a better move as I play Second Coin Toss, letting me re-flip a coin after its result. Then I play Time Wizard (0500) in Attack Mode.
"That monster is too weak to defeat my harpies," said Mai.
"Au contraire, mon amie," said Pierre. I use my Wizard's effect, which will take out a player's monsters depending on whether or not I correctly call the coin's face. If I do, you get to say au revoir to your monsters but if not, I bid adieu to my monsters and half of each of their ATKs are dealt to me as damage. I call tails! The coin lands.
"Looks like you lose, lover boy," said Mai.
"You forget Second Coin Toss," said Pierre. I use its effect to re-flip the coin. The coin lands again* Tails it is. *Mai's monsters are destroyed* Time Wizard, attack directly! *Mai's LPs drop to 7500* I set 1 card face down and my turn is fini. (3)
"I play Pot of Greed for 2 cards," said Mai. Next I play Harpie's Hunting Ground, giving all Winged-Beast monsters 200 ATK and DEF. Then, I summon Harpie Lady 1 (1500) in Attack Mode. With Hunting Ground's other effect, I can destroy 1 Spell or Trap Card whenever a Harpie Lady monster is summoned so say goodbye to your face down card! *Pierre's face down Fairy Box is destroyed* As a bonus, my Harpie Lady 1 is also treated as Harpie Lady and boosts the ATK of all WIND monsters by 300! *Harpie Lady 1's ATK rises to 1800* Harpie Lady, destroy Time Wizard! *Time Wizard is destroyed and Pierre's LPs drop to 6700* That ends my turn. (1)
"I play Sasuke Samurai #4 (1200) in Attack Mode," said Pierre. Samurai, attack her Harpie Lady!
"Why are you attacking when my monster's stronger?" asked Mai.
"When battling a monster, I flip a coin and if I'm correct, your monster is destroyed," said Pierre. *He flips a coin* Heads! *The coin lands* Heads it is. *Harpie Lady 1 is destroyed* I set 2 cards face down to end my turn. (1)
"My move," said Mai. I summon Harpie Queen (2100) in Attack Mode. Harpie Queen, destroy his Sasuke Samurai!
"I activate my Samurai's effect!" said Pierre. *He flips a coin* Tails! *The coin lands* Heads? No matter for I use Second Coin Toss' effect! *He re-flips the coin and it lands* Tails! *Harpie Queen is destroyed*
"That's the second time he's destroyed one of my monsters," thought Mai to herself. I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (0)
"First I tribute my Sasuke Samurai for 'Maximum Six' (1900) in Attack Mode," said Pierre. Next, the die result multiplies by 200 and adds it to his current ATK. *The die lands* Bravo, a 5! *Maximum Six's ATK rises to 2900* Next I activate 'Dangerous Machine - Type 6'! Then, you can say au revoir to 2900 of your LPs, mon cherrie as Maximum Six attacks directly!
"Sorry hun but I activate Mirror Wall!" said Mai. As long as I pay 2000 LPs per turn, it halves your monster's ATK! *Maximum Six's ATK drops to 1450 while Her LPs drop to 6050* You're gambling with the wrong duelist, lover boy!
