Yu-Gi-Oh! R: The untold story of the anime.

Both the start and end of this chapter have copied moves. So sue me (please don't).

I promise you all that I will try and finish this. Despite the hecticness of my studies, I'll find time to update. Ah, bugger, I'm out of stuff to say.

I wonder what the new dub of Zexal will be like? Or will it be toned down the same (as 4Kids aren't doing it anymore I think. Not confirmed here.)

The Godspeed Summoning!

Yami Yugi looked in fear at the mighty beast above him. The Wicked Dreadroot's fear power was dominating the field, and only the effects of Slifer and Eraser prevented their attack and defence points from being halved by the effect of Dreadroot.

Kaiba looked at the monster angrily. It had been its presence that had guaranteed his defeat at Yako's hands, so seeing it there was not welcome. Both Gekko and Willa had experienced that fear of the monster before, and it wasn't a pleasant experience.

"The Wicked Dreadroot," said Kaiba looking at the god monster. "The god that dominates all other monsters with fear, and reigns supreme over the field." Kaiba watched the field. Yugi could have destroyed Eraser last turn. Why didn't he?

Yako smiled as he beheld the situation. He had his two God cards as opposed to Yugi's own. Dreadroot was stronger than Slifer but then he realised in horror what Yugi had done...

Yugi smiled. "That's right Yako. When you summoned Dreadroot...you activated Slifer's special ability!"

Yako gritted his teeth.

Yugi raised his arm. "Go get him Slifer!" he cried. The massive red dragon rose, opening its smaller second mouth, and blue lightning formed within it. "Lightning Blast!" yelled Yugi, and Slifer's lightning tore into Dreadroot, reducing its power by 2000. Dreadroot faltered, but stayed upright.

Yako frowned. That will only last one turn, but it's saved Yugi for another round! "I'll end my turn," he said.

Yugi drew, and both Slifer and Dreadroot roared as their attack points went up to 4000.

He placed a card in his graveyard. "I send this card to the graveyard to summon the Tricky from my hand!" he called. (2000/1200) A jester with a question mark instead of a face appeared, and reeled as Dreadroot's effect cut its defence points in half to 600. "Next I summon Big Shield Gardna in defence mode," added Yugi, and a black haired muscular man holding a massive shield appeared, its points being cut down to 1300. (100/2600) "That ends my turn," Yugi finished.

Everyone else was in shock. That turn had cut Slifer down to 1000 points, and raised Eraser to 5000.

"What is he thinking?" Willa protested.

"When it comes to Yugi, no-one else really knows," Kaiba explained. But it that facedown card is what I think it is...

"My turn and I draw!" said Yako. He grinned savagely. "Are you anxious to lose? Let me help you with that." He slid a card into his disk. "First I'll set this facedown card." A card hologram appeared behind the two Wicked Gods. "Now, Wicked Dreadroot, attack his Sky Dragon with Fierce Knockdown!" he screamed. Dreadroot charged, its wrist spurs reaching for Slifer.

Yugi made his move and touched the button on his duel disk. "I reveal my facedown trap card! Mirror Force!" he shouted. "This will negate your attack and destroy all your attacking monsters!"

Yako snarled in anger, as the attack connected with the shield that had appeared and tore apart, lancing towards his god monsters. "Fool!" Yako laughed. "A mere destruction effect can't stop a Wicked God!" The shards shattered upon contact with Dreadroot. "I switch Eraser to attack mode!" he called, and the god monster shrieked. "My turn is done."

Yugi drew his next card. Excellent! This combo will stop Yako in his tracks. Now I'll be able to fight back! He held up a card, and placed it onto his disk. "I summon the Obnoxious Celtic Guardian!" he called. (1400/1200) The elf swordsman knelt on the field, struggling as Dreadroot's effect sent its defence down to 600. Yugi grinned and placed down another card. "I'll also equip it with the Ring of Magnetism!" he added, and the elf lost another further 500 defence points. "I end my turn."

Willa and Gekko blanched.

"Slifer has no attack points..." stammered Willa.

"...And Eraser has 6000 attack points!" cried Gekko.

But Kaiba just smiled. The CEO knew what was happening.

Yako drew. "You have no facedown cards Yugi! Dreadroot, attack the little elf to get rid of that troublesome Ring! Eraser, prove your might over Slifer, and end this duel! Sate my rage for the disappearance of Master Pegasus and his dream! Digestive Breath and Fierce Knockdown!" he called.

The Wicked Gods both launched their attacks. Dreadroot's fists slammed onto the Obnoxious Celtic Guardian, and Eraser gathered its power...and also attacked Celtic Guardian with its liquid energy beam.

"What!?" screamed Yako. Of course, he thought. Obnoxious Celtic Guardian defies might and cannot be destroyed by monsters with more than 1900 attack points! And since the Ring of Magnetism was still active, then the Eraser had to attack that Guardian! Yako snarled in fury. "I set this card and end my turn!" he yelled.

Yugi drew, and smiled. I play the spell card Infernal Transaction!" he called. "Now you summon one monster from your graveyard with more than 2000 attack points, and I get a spell card from my graveyard!"

Surprised, Yako summoned Beast King Barbaros, and the massive creature appeared with a roar. (3000/1200) Yugi smiled.

"Of course, Slifer has something to say about that!" he added, and the red dragon unleashed a blast of lightning that smashed into the beast king, and reduced it to 1000 attack points. Then Dreadroot's effect reduced Barbaros to 500 attack points.

"Then I play my spell card that I just recovered, Pot of Greed! I draw two cards!" he called, and smiled at the two cards.

"I offer three sacrifices to the heavens!" he called, holding up the card. Whirlwinds encircled his three monsters, and a storm began to roll in the night sky, and blue light shone down from it. "The unstoppable force of the Egyptian God monster!" called Yugi as the card sat in his disk, glowing with energy. "Obelisk the Tormentor!" (4000/4000)

A form began to make itself visible in the shadows. This massive giant was a blue skinned menace whose giant wings wafted a breeze of destruction across the field. Unlike its counterpart it had no need of bone spurs, instead boasting massive spiked fingers which were currently clenched into fists. It had sets of crests coming out of the top and sides of its skull, and a spike jutting out of its chin. Its red eyes gleamed with the same fury that Slifer's had as it looked at its rivals.

Yako wasn't cowed. "Now Dreadroot's effect activates! Fear Domination!" he yelled. Obelisk faltered, as its 4000 attack points fell to 2000. "And I'll also activate the trap card known as Card of Last Will" he added. The facedown card rose up, showing the gravestone with a hand thrust out of the ground, holding five cards. "This trap activates when the attack points of one of my monsters decreases! It lets me draw until I hold five cards!"

Yugi then pointed at Barbaros.

"Obelisk the Tormentor! Attack with Fist of Fury and crush his Beast King Barbaros!" cried Yugi.

The giant god monster raised its fist, glowing with power, and lunged forward, slamming into Barbaros and shattering it. Yako cried out against the backlash as his life points dropped to 600.

"I end my turn," said Yugi panting.

Yako grimaced at Yugi, and drew a card, topping off his hand. Obelisk roared as its attack points went back to 4000. "I use the effect of this card" he cried, and placed the card into his disk. A humanoid birdlike creature appeared with a screech. "I can summon Alector, Sovereign of Birds from my hand if you control at least two monsters with the same attribute," Yako explained as he pointed at Yugi's two gods. (2400 ATK)

"Take this! Slifer and Dreadroot's effects!" cried Yugi, and the red dragon unleashed another blast of lightning that crippled the stricken monster, which then sagged under the effects of Dreadroot. Its attack points had gone from 2400 to 200 when it had been summoned.

Yako wasn't fazed, instead he smiled. "I play Alector's ability!" added Yako. "It negates the effect of one of your monsters!" The bird blasted winds from its wings at Slifer, and the dragon bellowed as it faltered, its attack points dropping to zero.

"Slifer!" cried Yugi. Yako grinned, selecting another card.

"I play a spell card!" he called. "Photon Veil! Now, I can shuffle three Light attribute monsters into my deck, and then add up to three to my hand as long as they are level four or lower. But if I add more than one, they must have the same name."

He selected the three he wanted, and slipped them into his deck, and then took 3 and added them to his hand. He shuffled his deck and smiled. "I play another spell card, Photon Lead!" he called. "I can summon a level four or lower light attribute monster to the field, and I chose Daybreaker!" A white armoured knight in a red cape appeared. "His ability allows him, when special summoned, to bring out another Daybreaker!" A new knight appeared as well. Yako, breathless raised one more card.

Kaiba gasped as he realised what was coming. He's gotten three more sacrifices!

"And now, Yugi, another Wicked God card will manifest itself before you!" cried Yako, slamming a card into his Duel Disk. "Look and despair..." he grinned as his right eye bulged.

A spot of deepest darkness began to form in midair. Though featureless, all who saw it claimed that it reminded them of the Sphere form of the Winged Dragon of Ra. It expanded slowly out wards until it hovered over the field, a dark sun the size of Yako's Beast King Barbaros with unknown potential lurking in its depths. (?/?)

"...as I summon the Wicked Avatar!" laughed Yako.

Bloody hell this was difficult to rescribble.

The combo used to summon the Wicked Avatar was first used by Kite in Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal to summon his Number 10: Illumiknight. He also continues with a truly spectacular combo to bring out another Number.

Actually, something that I've noticed is a lack of three all powerful cards in Zexal. Yu-Gi-Oh! has the Egyptian God cards, R has the Wicked God cards, GX has the Sacred Beast cards, and 5D's has the Aesir/Nordic God cards. I assume if Zexal has them, they will be Numbers. Hmmm. Sorry, if you think that Zexal is annoying, and my talking about it is.

And another intriguing idea, is that of a Yu-Gi-Oh! Dissidia of sorts. It would be interesting. Maybe I'll give it a try.

And this time, I didn't exceed the monster zones. Oh, yes!

Please review.
