Ben's P.O.V

I woke up with Alexis in my arms and was just staring at her angelic face while she slept and saw the fact that she had worn her necklace and bracelets to bed.

After a few minutes she woke up and we got ready for the day and then went down to the cafeteria for breakfast and I made a mental note to on the next free day to go to the mainland and buy some more food for my private fridge.

After breakfast we were headed toward the main building and Yugi came up to us and said "so have you two heard anything about the missing students."

I replied "the only thing I heard about that was that they were all males" and ishizu said "yes I have sensed a dark presence on the island for a few days."

I said "could you lead us toward the dark presence" and she said "I could get you within the general area of it before it feels like it's coming from all directions."

I replied "good enough for me just let me call the other key keepers so we can all go after them" and within 30 minutes we were walking through the forest.

After searching for the area for a few minutes we saw this huge coliseum that had appeared on the island.

When we walked in we saw that what appeared to be the whole of the male population of duel academy putting the finishing touches on it and surprisingly Crowler was there as well.

Then an amazon women appeared and said to them "okay all of you your done here and as promised your rare cards right here" and she handed them all envelopes.

She then turned to us and said "so which of you will duel me" and Alexis said "I'll accept" and the amazon said "oh please I would never harm a fellow sister so which of you guess will duel me."

I was about to accept when Marik said "I will take you on" and she said "very well" and they got in the center of the arena and activated their duel disks.

"Duel" they both said in unison and drew their opening hands and Marik said "now this shadow game can truly begin with this" and pulled out the millennium rod.

The amazon said "fine I summon amazon swords women in attack mode and end my turn" and Marik drew and said "that all.

I summon this monster in face down defense mode and set these two cards face down and end my turn and once I win your soul will be consumed by the shadows."

She drew and said "I summon amazon paladin in attack mode and with her effect it gets 100 extra attack for each amazon monster on my field including itself.

Now amazon swordswomen attack his face down monster" and the swordswomen destroyed and Marik said "you activated the effect of my morphing jar.

When its flipped face up either by battle or by card effect its effect activated we both discard our entire hands and then draw 5 new cards."

Marik discarded his whole hand and I saw the smirk on his face which I knew meant he drew something good.

The amazon said "now amazon paladin attack his life points directly" and Marik said "no because I activate the face down card scrap iron scarecrow.

With this card I can negate any attack you throw at me and the best part due to its second effect it goes back face down on the field."

The amazon said "fine I end my turn" and Marik drew and said "now I sacrifice both your monsters in order to summon lava golem."

The amazon said "how can you sacrifice my monsters" and Marik said "because my dear it is being summoned to your side of the field.

And thanks to the two effects it deal 1000 damage to you each turn and the second you summon any monster it is automatically destroyed."

The amazon said "you done" and he replied "yes I believe it is your turn" and she drew but lava golem took 1000 of her life points.

"Even though I can summon any monster I can still attack with this one so lava golem attack him directly" and Marik said "your intelligence must be low if you have forgotten about my scrap iron scarecrow already."

"Fine I end my turn" and Marik said "now I summon jinzo #7 in attack mode and thanks to his effect he can attack you directly so jinzo #7 attack her directly."

Taniya's life points dropped to 2500 "and now I activate the magic card triple attack which mean since my first attack when through he can attack you two more times."

Taniya's life points then dropped to 1500 "and now I remove the magic card I just played to special summon spell striker and thanks to his second ability he can also attack you directly."

Taniya's life points then dropped to 900 and Marik said "now I think I will let lava Golem finish you off so I end my turn."

Taniya drew her card and burned the rest of her life points away and she turned into a tiger and left after the holograms had faded.

Marik said "well that was good for a few seconds of entertainment" and Yugi shot up like a rocket and said "where you going Marik" and Marik said "to finish off the rest of the shadow riders."

Okay just three things this time one I am sorry for the delay in this chapter I just haven't had all that much inspiration. Two I know the lava golem doesn't destroy a monster when it is summoned but I wanted it to be an easy victory for marik's dark side. Three please review and tell me what you thought of this chapter.
