A/N: Mkay, so, firstdayofmay, yes you can use our characters -- Reneey, as Bakura's daughter, but are you going to have Lyn be Yami's daughter, too? Oh, and me and Lyn are very honored that you would choose us, and no need to apologize for the long review! (Lyn: Long review ROCK!) Tell me or Lyn when that story is up!

Also, in other news, me and Lyn are going to try to finish up this story this week, then later on we'll start with the sequel -- ya know, Battle City, etc.

And thanks a bunch for the reviews! We'd never have made it this far without all of you.

Oh! And I forgot something else, too. I sorta made a mistake, so that instead of having two characters being possessed by Marik, I accidentally had three. But since it's my mistake, I'm not going to cut off any characters and just stick with three.

Sorry.

"Well, would it help you to know that she knows my deck better than me?" Reneey whispered back, grinning.

Yami blinked. "How could...? But.. you know what, never mind."

Lyn and Rube began to shuffle their decks, but Lyn wasn't really paying attention to what she was doing. It wasn't like she needed to watch herself shuffle, anyway, and she was more interested in making sure that Rube wasn't stacking his deck.

"As they say, ladies first."

Lyn glared, but drew five cards. After evaluating her hand for a moment, she announced, "I play two cards facedown, and play D.D. Warrior Lady in face-up defense mode."

"What, afraid or something?" Rube asked. He was really beginning to get on Lyn's nerves, so much so that she was lamenting the fact that it was against the rules to fist fight during a duel.

It was Rube's turn next, and he examined his five cards carefully, as well. "I play Slate Warrior in attack mode, and attack her D.D. Warrior Lady!"

Slate Warrior materialized on the field and attacked Lyn's (or really Reneey's) monster. The gang all gasped, but Reneey and Lyn smirked.

D.D. Warrior Lady vanished -- but then, so did Rube's Slate Warrior.

"WHAT?" Rube demanded.

"D.D. Warrior Lady is an effect card, you idget," Lyn said, rolling her eyes. "If it's destroyed, both it and the attacking monster are removed from play. Too bad, yours was a strong one, too."

She smirked, and Rube grumbled and ended his turn.

"Next I play Marie the Fallen One in attack mode, and flip my trap card, Solemn Wishes," Lyn went on, smirking.

I knew that someday, somehow, it would be a good thing that I gave Reneey some of my cards.

She ended her turn and her eyes seemed to dare Rube to give it his best shot as she said, "Anytime you're ready, hon."

"I play Command Knight in attack mode, and play two cards facedown."

"Jeez, you're real boring, y'know that?" Lyn asked blandly.

Rube growled low in his throat and threatened, "Better learn to watch your mouth or I'll show you just how very wrong you are, after I beat you."

Yami bristled, but Lyn just laughed and said, "You wouldn't be the first one to try, and you wouldn't be the first one to wind up getting a date with a paramedic for the trouble, either."

Reneey yawned. "This is getting so boring..."

Then she yelled, "LYNNI! DON'T PUT MY WATER AND FIRE MONSTER CARDS, LIKE, NEXT TO EACH OTHER! THEY WILL KILL THEMSELVES!"

"What?" Tristan asked, blinking, and Reneey grinned.

"My trap cards have something against my magic cards, my magic cards have something against my monster cards, but they just play good together."

Everybody blinked.

Lyn drew a card, and her life points went up to 2500.

"I play a card face down, and Legendary Fiend in attack mode. Attack his Command Knight!"

Legendary Fiend's 1800 ATK easily overpowered Command Knight's 1200, and so Rube's LP dropped to 1400. Honestly, Lyn had to wonder why in the name of Seto Kaiba this guy would've played such a weak monster in attack, anyway.

Rube growled, then drew a card and smirked. "I play Swords of Concealing Light."

"What's that do?" Tristan asked.

"It forces all of your opponent's monsters into facedown positions, and while that card is in play, Lyn's -- or really Reneey's, technically -- monsters can't change their battle positions, except for effects. At the second standby phase after play, the card is destroyed."

Yami rattled off the explanation just like Yugi always did. Gee, it was no wonder that everybody had a hard time telling them apart.

Lyn shrugged. "At least it's not Swords of Revealing Light -- everybody has that card. Totally overplayed."

"Next I play Gearfried the Iron Knight in attack mode! Now, attack her Marie the Fallen One!"

Marie the Fallen One was destroyed, and Lyn's LP dropped slightly to 2400, but she rolled her eyes and said, "Thanks for my life points."

"What do you mean?"

"You really don't know your cards, do you?" Lyn asked with a sigh. "As long as Marie the Fallen One is in my graveyard, I get 200 life points for every one of my standby phases."

Rube growled, but ended his turn.

Lyn drew, then announced, "Well, first up, I'll activate my facedown card, Aegis of Gaia."

"What does that do?" Tristan asked, looking at Yami.

"It's a continuous trap card. If it stays onthe field, Lyn gets 3000 life points every turn; but if it's destroyed, she loses 3000."

Rube's eyes bulged. He had no cards that could destroy trap cards! And Lyn's life points had already gone to up 5600 -- but he refused to lose!

"Hey, Lynni, I'm just gonna continue on the list, mkay? 'Cuz I'm bored here."

Lyn blinked. "How can you keep on with the list if it's on my cell phone?"

"... Good point. Send it to me?"

Lyn laughed and pulled out her cell, but Rube objected, "Hey, put that down! You could be asking for help!"

"Like I need help," Lyn said, rolling her eyes.

"PUT IT DOWN NOW OR YOU FORFEIT!"

Lyn's eyes darkened and narrowed at the same time. "Are you accusing me of cheating, scumbag?" she asked in a low hiss.

"Yeah, Ruby, the day Lyn cheats will be the same day that Daddy stops being a stereotypical emo person," Reneey replied.

"Do NOT call me Ruby."

"Ruuuuby! Ruuuuby! Ruuu-uu-uuuby!"

Lyn sighed and said, "Fun though it is to make Rube turn forty different colors of red in anger and embarrassment --"

"I AM NOT EMBARRASSED!"

"-- can we please get on with the dadburned duel so I can beat him already?" Lyn finished as if she hadn't heard him.

"Oh, we'll see about that," Rube growled.

Lyn rolled her eyes and announced, "I play Ookazi."

"What does that card do?" Tristan asked.

Yami sighed exasperatedly, shaking his head, and said, "It does 800 damage to your opponent's life points."

And so Rube's LP fell to 600.

"And, to wrap up this very, very short duel -- in fact, probably the shortest on record -- I play two Raimei."

"What does --"

"What does that card do?" Yami asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah," Tristan said unabashedly.

Yami rolled his eyes -- wow, how had he been driven that insane already? -- and said, "Your opponent takes 300 damage to their life points. And since Lyn has two..."

He pointed to the life point counter, which fell to zero.

"YOU CHEATED!" Rube accused.

Lyn growled and thundered, "I DO NOT CHEAT, YOU DADBURNED MORON!"

"I'm pretty sure that card is banned!"

Yami sweatdropped. "It's not banned..."

Rube glared at him. "Who asked you?"

Reneey sighed and said, "Lovey-dovey though this is.. I WANNA MEET BONZ!"
