Schooling the Teacher (1)

*Inside Sheppard's office…*

"Who's there?" asked Sheppard.

"It's Zane," said Zane.

"Why are you here, I don't need to speak to you," said Sheppard.

"I didn't come for a lecture," said Zane.

"Then, why did you come?" asked Sheppard.

"I came for that Cyberdark deck," said Zane.

"That deck doesn't belong to you," said Sheppard.

"Then maybe I duel you for it and if I win, I get the deck," said Zane.

"Fine but if I win, it stays with me," said Sheppard.

"I think I'll start with Polymerization, discarding my 2 Cyber Dragons for Cyber Twin Dragon (2800) in Attack Mode," said Zane. Then I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (2)

"I also use Polymerization, sending my Cyber Ogres to my Graveyard for Cyber Ogre 2 (2600) in Attack Mode," said Sheppard.

"Not bad but I'm afraid it's a few points short of mine," said Zane.

"Not when I attack," said Sheppard. Its effect gives him half the points of his attack target, or in this case, 1400 more ATK! *Cyber Ogre 2's ATK rises to 4000* Cyber Ogre 2, destroy his Twin Dragon!

"Guess again, for I activate Limiter Removal, so my Twin Dragon's ATK doubles this turn," said Zane. *End Dragon's ATK rises to 8000 and Cyber Ogre 2 is destroyed, reducing Sheppard's LPs to 5400*

"Not bad, Truesdale," said Sheppard. I set 2 cards face down and end my turn. *Cyber End is destroyed* (1).

"I play Future Fusion," said Zane. Now by sending my remaining Cyber Dragon and 6 more Machine-Type monsters to my Grave, I can summon another one in 2 turns but why wait when it can appear now? I activate Overload Fusion, which by removing the Machine-Type monsters I sent to my Grave from play, I can summon Chimeratech Overdragon (4800) in Attack Mode. It may send my Future Fusion to my Grave but that doesn't matter for his effect is going to take you down! Chimeratech, attack him directly! *Sheppard's LPs drop to 600* That ends my turn. (1)

"Alright," said Sheppard. I play Pot of Greed, so that's 2 more cards for me. Next, I summon Cyber Esper (1800) in Defense Mode and end my turn by placing 1 card face down. (1)

"My move," said Zane.

"I activate my face down card, Cyber Shadow Gardna!" said Sheppard. This card becomes a monster with the same stats as your Overdragon.

"Chimeratech, destroy Cyber Esper!" said Zane. *Cyber Esper is destroyed*

"I activate Byroad Sacrifice!" said Sheppard. Now I can play Cyber Ogre (1200) in Defense Mode.

"Chimeratech, destroy it!" said Zane. See, for every monster used to summon him, my Chimeratech can attack an equal number of monsters. *Cyber Ogre is destroyed* That deck will be mine! *Elsewhere…*

"Stop!" said Aster.

"Well, well, Aster Phoenix," said Sartorius. What a surprise.

"It's time I put an end to your game!" said Aster.

"Aster, what makes you think you can defeat me?" asked Sartorius. I already know the outcome of this duel and it will end in your defeat.

"Not gonna happen, dude," said Aster. Now let's do this!

"Fine by me," said Sartorius.

"I'll start with my Destiny Draw Spell," said Aster. By discarding my Dasher, I can draw twice. Next, since Dasher's in my Graveyard, I can Special Summon Destiny Hero - Diamond Dude (1600) in Defense Mode. You're going down!
