Chapter Thirty Six: Duel of the Millennium Part Three: Daisuke's Comeback
"Your turn my dear, but what is a poor duellist to do, every monster you place in defence mode shall be fossilised, and if you place them in attack mode my toons shall crush them," Pegasus said to Daisuke who looked at her hand and she closed her eyes in thought.
"He's right, I can't win, but I won't give up so maybe," she thought to herself. "I will play the Dark Magician Girl in defence mode, and then I will play the magic card Magical Hats to conceal and to protect her," Daisuke said as her Dark Magician Girl appeared on the field and a hat went over her before it multiplied into four hats.
"Perfect, now Daisuke's Dark Magician Girl is safe from harm, I don't think even Pegasus can know what hat she is under," Yugi said.
"Nice move Dai," Joey called to her.
"Ah I see," Pegasus said.
"See what?" Daisuke asked him.
"With your feeble attempt to hide your Dark Magician Girl, you're are attempting to stall long enough until you can think off a way to defeat my Toon World, but it won't work," Pegasus tells her and Daisuke raises and eyebrow at her. "Don't you get it yet, you're not capable of concealing your secrets from me, and those silly hats won't help you, all I need to do is to probe your mind for which hat hides your mage," Pegasus told Daisuke who gasped in shock, "Or did you forget the power of my Millennium Eye, you should just surrender now and avoid the humiliation," Pegasus told Daisuke who growled under her breath. "Prepare yourself my dear, here I come," He said.
"What do I do, if he reads my mind, I am done," Daisuke thought to herself. "There has to be something!" she thought to herself.
"Dai stay calm, you can win this," Joey called to her.
"Come on Dai, remember what your sister told you yes Pegasus has magic but so do you, your Millennium Bracelet!" Yugi shouted to her and Daisuke gasped and her bracelet started to glow brightly.
"That is it! Hitomi can you hear me?" Daisuke called to her.
"Daisuke, I can feel Pegasus trying to claw into our minds again, I can't keep him out," Hitomi said to her.
"I know that, but I have a plan, my sister told me if I wanted to beat Pegasus I would need to master my Bracelet's power, I thought that meant we would have to merge like normal, but now I know that wasn't right, she said to trust in the power of my bracelet but she never said in you," Daisuke said as Hitomi found herself in a corridor looking at Daisuke who was standing by a golden door.
"What are you saying?" Hitomi asked her.
"I have to push you out of my mind," Daisuke said.
"What?" Hitomi asked in shock.
"Hear me out, we're losing only because Pegasus can read our minds, because we are working so closely together, it is the wrong strategy while we are merged together Pegasus can read both our minds, we lose everyone loses but I have a better idea," Daisuke said.
"It better be good, many lives hang in the balance," Hitomi said.
"I know that, but I know this will work, what other choice do we have?" Daisuke asked.
"Then spill it, I can feel Pegasus breaking in trying to read our thoughts," Hitomi said.
"Okay here it is, whenever we play a card or strategy Pegasus reads our minds, so what about if we keep separate?" Daisuke asked and Hitomi gasped.
"Of course, switch minds, instead of merging like normal we keep separate, our thoughts secret even from each other," She said and Daisuke nodded her head "This is risky, but I know one thing you have taken many risks before and they paid off before, alright lets hurry," Hitomi said as Daisuke's bracelet glowed brightly.
"Toon Skull, emerge from Toon World and attack the hat on the far left," Pegasus said and Toon World spun around and it opened up and in a plume of pink smoke the Toon Skull appeared and it cackled and it fired two streams of lightning towards the far left hat and destroyed it. "Your Dark Magician Girl has performed for the last time," He said.
"Maybe Pegasus, or maybe you have lost your edge," Daisuke said to Pegasus whoop looked down at his screen.
"What is this? Daisuke's lifepoints are unaffected and her Dark Magician Girl is still on the field, but how I just read her mind, her magician girl was under that hat," Pegasus said, "I felt her resist but not even she can deceive me," He thought.
"Or maybe you have read the wrong mind, one who doesn't know where the Dark Magician Girl is hiding," He heard Daisuke say and he looked up to see Daisuke was back to normal, "Or maybe your all seeing eye isn't all that great after all," She said.
"You dare mock my powers?" Pegasus asked her.
"Oh believe me I do mock your powers," Daisuke said.
"Somebody want to tell me what just happened?" Joey asked.
"I think it has to do something with the spirit inside of Dai's bracelet, she is somehow using the spirit to confuse Pegasus and his mind reading powers," Yugi said.
"You have gained nothing from that attack Pegasus, even with your powers you won't win this time, because you are not the only one on this island with a Millennium Item," Daisuke said showing off her bracelet.
"Whoa Daisuke, I hope she knows what she is doing," Yugi said in worry.
"Yeah, we don't know much about her Millennium Bracelet," Tea said.
"Millennium Bracelet, Millennium smacelet, I just wish I could help her, but no all I can do is cheer her own from the sidelines and watch as my friend who is almost like a sister to me face this by himself," Joey said as Daisuke drew her next card.
"I place this card face down, and I end my turn, Pegasus do you know what the card is at all?" Daisuke asked him. "I mean all you have to do is to read my mind with your Millennium Eye, well if you can?" Daisuke taunted him with a smirk and Pegasus frowned before he focused.
"Fine no problem," He said as his Millennium Eye glowed brightly.
"That is what you think?" Daisuke thought to herself as her bracelet started to glow as well, Pegasus tried to read the mind of Daisuke to find out what the card she had placed down was but no success.
"What!? I can't tell what that card is," He said in shock and he heard a chuckle and looked up to see Daisuke had turned into Hitomi.
"Well that is because I don't know either, so reading my mind won't help you," Hitomi said to him.
"How is she doing that?" Pegasus thought to herself.
"You see Pegasus I don't know what that card is, because I am no longer Daisuke Motomyia, but I am someone else entirely, thanks to the power of the Millennium Bracelet two minds inhabit this body, and each time you try to read our minds we will use the mind shuffle," Hitomi told him.
"Mind shuffle!?" Pegasus thought to himself in shock.
"Told you, Dai doesn't have one mind she has two," Yugi said.
"Alright so when Pegasus tries to read one of their minds they switch, I guess two minds are better than one," Joey said with a smile on his face.
"So are you still trying to read my mind Pegasus, then go right ahead," Hitomi told him.
"No thanks my dear, my mind scanning abilities are one of many," He said as he drew his next card. "And that you need to worry about, you forget who invented this game, besides I can sense that you are about to switch minds as soon as I begin to probe yours, so rather than waste both our time let's move on shall we, you've still no defence against my toon monsters, and it is only a matter of time until I find your Dark Magician Girl," Pegasus said with a chuckle.
"Then pick a hat, and we will soon see how good you are, but I guess that after relying on your Millennium Eye for so long your skills in duelling have withered away," Hitomi said to Pegasus.
"Even if your theory is correct, I am still a superior duellist then you," Pegasus said.
"Then prove it," Hitomi said to him.
"Toon Summoned Skull attack the middle hat," Pegasus said and the Toon Skull popped out of the Toon World book and shot lightning towards the middle magical hat and destroyed it. "Did I get her, I think I got her, I must have gotten her," He said but he saw he hit nothing. "No I have missed again," he said.
"Such a shame Pegasus, another turn wasted away, and for my next move a quick change is in order," Hitomi said as she changed back into Daisuke.
"So you've switched once again?" Pegasus asked her.
"You got that right Pegasus, and out mind shuffle strategy is working perfectly," Daisuke told him drawing her next card, "Yes, Heavy Storm this will destroy Toon World, but I think I will let him sweat," Daisuke thought to herself as she placed the card face down. "One card face down, now it is your turn, adios," Daisuke said as she switched back to Hitomi.
"You look flustered," She said to Pegasus.
"She laid another card face down, and there is no use reading this Daisuke's mind she has no clue what the card is either." Pegasus thought to himself.
"So Daisuke has laid another card face down, now even though I don't know what it is I have faith in her, and my deck," Hitomi thought to herself.
"I am becoming annoyed," Pegasus said as he drew his next card. "Eureka, this card will destroy your Dark Magician Girl, Magical neutralising force activate!" Pegasus said as a tornado appeared on the field. "This spell card eliminates any and all magic cards in play, which means that your magical hats are no more," Pegasus said as the two remaining hats vanished from the field and the Dark Magician Girl was revealed. "So now come on out Toon Skull and win this duel for me," Pegasus said as Toon Skull reappeared and waved its tongue around.
"No, this is not good, his toons cards are unstoppable, and the Dark Magician Girl is unprotected unless," Hitomi thought to herself.
"Toon Skull destroy the Dark Magician Girl, Lightning Strike attack!" Pegasus said.
"I don't have a move, but Daisuke might!" Hitomi thought as she switched with Daisuke.
"Not so fast Pegasus, I play Negate attack!" Daisuke said as the Toon Skull's attack was blocked.
"What!? Negate Attack?" Pegasus asked.
"Correctamundo, this card blocks an attack saving my Dark Magician Girl from your toons," Daisuke said with a smirk on her face, "and to top it all off pal, I play Heavy Storm to annihilate Toon World!" She said as a cyclone appeared on the field and Toon World was destroyed, "And seeing as Toon World is gone your monsters who were once untouchable are now exposed," Daisuke said to Pegasus and true to her word Red Archery Girl, Ryu-Ran and the doppelganger reappeared on the field.
"Impossible, this isn't happening!" Pegasus said.
"Oh but it is," Daisuke said to him and Pegasus growled.
"Ryu-Ran destroy Dark Magician Girl!" He ordered and Ryu-Ran went to attack Dark Magician girl but daisuke chuckled.
"Not so fast pal, I activate Magic Cylinder!" Daisuke said as two cylinders appeared on the field just as Ryu-Ran attacked, "The power of Magic Cylinder returns an attack right back towards you!" Daisuke said and true to her word Ryu-Ran's attack flew into one cylinder and out the other and back towards Pegasus who gasped in shock as his side was hit and all his monsters were wiped out.
"No my precious toons, this is a nightmare, this isn't happening, no no no no no no!" Pegasus said in denial.
"Ha, bullseye baby, take that Pegasus," Daisuke said a Pegasus's lifepoints dropped to 650 the same as Daisuke.
"Yes, and it was your plan Daisuke I am very proud of you," Hitomi said back to her.
"The score stands even both Daisuke Motomyia and Mister Maximillion Pegasus have 650 lifepoints each, sorry sir," Croquet said apologising to Pegasus.
"Daisuke has proven far more formidable indeed, and her Millennium Bracelet is far more intriguing than I ever imagined," Pegasus thought to himself.
"Alright Dai," Joey cheered.
"Finally, Daisuke has turned this around, she destroyed those toons monsters, I just knew she could do it," Yugi thought to himself with a smile on his face.
"Daisuke I am impressed, when I first met you, all I saw was a young girl with no duelling talent whatsoever, but now look at you almost makes me want to cry. You are so close to being champion and you have been in the Shadow Realm and returned from it, and you have started to master the power of your Millennium Bracelet, and you see for me that is what this whole tournament is about me taking both your bracelet and Yugi-boys puzzle!" Pegasus said as a bubble started to form around them both.
"Oh no!" Hitomi thought in shock.
"Oh yes, we shall finish this duel in the Shadow Realm!" Pegasus said.
