Chapter 37: Twilight at the Sea

---

"Alright, this is it..."

After being hung out to dry by the Society of Light, Isaac brought Academy kids left behind, aside from Jaden, Aster and Masaki, to an apartment building that was about 5 or 6 stories tall. It looked like a fairly great building considering that it wasn't located in the bad part of town.

"An apartment building," Melody asked, "We couldn't find another hotel to crash in?"

"Nope," Isaac replied as he shook his head, "This is the only place I know that could accommodate you all without going into debt."

"At least we can count on the Society not being here," Lily stated.

"You're paying for it, too," Claudio asked the elder Hikarii, "You're really going out of your way..."

"This tour guide thing gives me a pretty penny for all its worth, plus it's where I'm crashing since part of my paycheck goes into the rent," the Toon duelist explained.

"Oh, that's great, but do you have enough room for all of us," Fonda asked.

"I should, I just think I don't have enough blankets..." Issac pondered, but made a smile, "But just to make sure we can put everyone into a room, I think I know someone who can make sure of that..."

"Who would that be," Spencer asked.

"Probably a landlord or lady," Alexis pondered.

"Or he could have some friends on his floor," Jeremy figured.

"Maybe..." Alex added.

"Well, let's get inside and I'll show ya," Isaac responded by opening the front doors of the apartment and leading everyone inside.

---

Because of nine people not being able to fit into the elevators, the group had to walk upstairs to the fifth floor and travel down the hallways.

"Alright, I got my workout," Alex quipped, "Miles of walking on the streets and up five floors of stairs..."

Everyone let out a little chuckle.

"We all got a workout today," Spencer said, "And I think we all deserve a rest for all we've been through..."

"Especially what Jeremy, Alex and Lily's been saying about some guys using the Monarch cards to mess with us," the Magician duelist stated, "I think we should find the rest of the gang."

"After we say 'hello' to the people of room 520," Isaac said as they all stopped at the room in question. He rang the doorbell and awaited the people inside to open the doors.

And once the doors opened, everyone was met with two familiar faces...

"Hey guys, so you finally made it!"

"I hope you all been enjoying yourselves..."

It was Alister and Erika!

"No way, you guys live here!?" Claudio exclaimed.

"Yeah, it's a sweet pad really," Alister stated, "Beats scrapping for a mansion like those self-absorbed snobs..."

"And getting a room together, we can easily pay half-rent..." Erika added. She then saw Isaac, "And I guess you found our little connection..."

Melody turned to Erika, "That's how you knew about me..."

"Yup,' Isaac said, "Met Alister and Erika back when I first came here..."

"Uh... I think we should get to the reason why we're here," Alexis interrupted.

"Oh, in all this excitement, I forgot about that..." The Guardian duelist smiled as he and Erika moved away from the door, "Please come in..."

The inside of the engaged couple's apartment was very impressive, like being in a penthouse apartment. It had several rooms with everyone currently inside the living room. Everyone sat on couches and small chairs as started to drink water, tea or soda. Claudio told his story about how he was led into a duel against people with supernatural powers and met a girl who could manipulate them. Spencer and Fonda talked about how the hotel was now full up because of the number of Society members present along with Crowler and Bonaparte.

"So it sounds like you all got yourselves into a big jam," Erika stated, taking in both stories, "Is that what that dark cloud over the city's all about?"

"It must be," Jeremy replied, "After seeing this girl taking Vincent and Allyson to who knows where, I bet she's the one dealing with this cloud."

"Not to mention our own encounter with her and forcing me into that duel with T-Bone," Claudio added.

"Do you guys always deal with this mess," Isaac asked.

"As far as the strange things we've encountered from last year up to know, yup," Alexis replied.

"And you also got cheated out of your hotel arrangements," Alister asked and growled a bit afterwards, "Those guys are crossing the line..."

"So, you think we can crash here," Lily asked.

"We can, but only a handful of you guys," the Machine duelist stated, "But with Isaac having a room here, it should be simple."

Everyone smiled.

"That's great, so how should we do this," the Gemini duelist wondered.

"I can take the guys down to my apartment," Isaac said, "And you two can accommodate the girls."

"Sounds like a plan," Alister stated, "Everybody cool with that?"

Everyone stated an affirmative.

"Great, all the guys come with me," the Toon duelist said as Spencer, Claudio, Jeremy and Alex stood up from their seats and followed him.

"Night ladies," Claudio waved.

"Night guys," The girls and Alister replied.

---

Walking down the streets, Lyra looked at the skies. Even with the clouds still darkening the skies, she enjoyed it and put away her dark umbrella.

"A time of day, I like," She said to herself, "Dark, and without rain..."

"Hey, Lyra!"

She sighed as she heard the Obelisk duelist Allen, running up to her.

"Man, you walk fast..." He said, catching his breath.

"What is it," She asked in her monotonous tone.

"Trying to catch up with you," Allen replied, "After that last trip to the museum, I lost ya for a second..."

"I sent you a message saying I was leaving, but you never bothered to reply back..." The Infernity duelist stated, "After 20 minutes of searching, I figured you left..."

"Leave you behind, no way..." the fairy duelist waved off, "I had one of those audio tours with the headphones, so I couldn't hear the sound of my Duel Pilot going off, sorry."

Lyra sighed, "Why are you following me again..."

"I enjoy your company... after our duel at the beginning of the year, you can say I feel a bond with someone who loves the dark..."

"Opposites attract, right?"

"Exactly!"

The Goth started walking again, "So after one duel against each other, you feel all that?"

Allen followed after her, "Pretty much. It's like what everyone great duelist says: "A Duelist's bond can reach out to every other duelist." And I can see that even as a Goth, you're willing to be around others who don't associate with your style. Heck, I had my share of dark times but I stay on the optimistic side."

"Being a Goth, I have a sense of my individuality on the world," Lyra stated, "Of course, our sense of style places us in several stereotypes like moody, rebellious and shutting out society. I just took a liking into the culture and it clicked with me."

"I never saw that..." Allen shrugged, "I'm guessing no one understood you much..."

"Family, they understood... everyone else, not so much... And I even show how I stand out in dueling with my Infernities."

"The empty hand thing?"

"Shows how much different things can still come to the same result as any other norms," Lyra pointed out, "I could win with my deck as well as lose with it... it's like how I beat you and lost to Alex."

"Makes perfect sense..."

*BEEP!**BEEP!*

Suddenly, a call came from the Obelisk's Duel Pilot, prompting him to answer it. He groaned at what he read.

"Bad news," Lyra asked.

"I just got a call from Professor Spencer," the fairy duelist stated, "We got a problem with the hotel everyone was supposed to stay at..."

"'Was?'"

"The Society of Light took it over and now we're forced to take ourselves to another one."

Lyra groaned, "Just another reason to hate those Light lovers... excluding you to an extent..."

"Uh, thanks I'll take that as a compliment," Allen muttered, "Anyway, I got a hold of Jethro as well, and he's near the docks so he can guide us over there."

"Then let's get over there and find out where we need to stay..."

Both duelists headed to the direction of the docks, unaware of the shadow that hid behind an alleyway.

"They are heading your way..." The voice said in a tone, like Lyra's.

---

At the docks, a shadow was lurking over an unconscious Jethro...

"Alrighty, let's get our plan into motion," a chipper, girlish voice giggled.

---

At the secluded caverns, Sarina laughed a bit...

"Looks like they found their prey," She whispered, "And with Makoto there to greet them as well, there will be no escape for either the victors or losers! And then Hanabi will bring the final challenge to Jaden..."

---

Finally at the docks, Lyra and Allen made their way to the boats.

"Okay, now where is he," The Infernity duelist asked as she looked around.

"Hey Jethro," Allen called out, "We're here! Where are you!"

"Oh, he's out... cold..."

Both Academy duelist looked up from the white boat and saw a tall, blonde woman wearing sleeveless white blouse and bellbottom pants sitting on top. She giggled as she waved at the kids, using Jethro's hat!

"Who are you," Lyra glared.

"And what have you done with Jethro," Allen yelled.

"In order, darlings," the white-clad woman said, lying sideways on the boat, "You can call me Shine. And your friend's taking a little nap in a special chair... he was so easy to fool..."

---

(Flashback)

Jethro had found himself back at the docks after a little mishap called him back to the boat...

"Aw man, I can't believe I left my duel disk in here," He said, combing the inside of the vessel, "In the off-chance I get attacked by those Society boys, I gotta protect myself..."

After a few minutes, he located his duel disk and hopped off the boat.

"Now let's find that hotel..."

"AAHH!"

Suddenly, he heard a girl screaming to the right of him and saw a woman in white, unlike the SOL's style being hassle by someone in black coat.

"Oh no, not on my watch," Jethro declared as he reached for his lasso hooked onto his belt and started to twirl it around and run at the ensuing scene, "Hey partner!"

The black coat figure turned just in time for the lasso to get roped around his arms. He then pulled the over to him and flattened the guy with a punch.

"Maybe next time, you show some respect to the ladies," the cowboy Obelisk stated. He then turned to the woman who suddenly hugged him on the spot, "Whoa... you're welcome!"

"Oh thank you, thank you," The woman said in praise, "I never thought someone as brave and handsome as you, would take the time to help little 'ol me."

"Just using what my folks told me," Jethro replied, after he was released from the hug, "It isn't the first time I've saved some damsel in distress..."

"My hero," The woman gushed, "I should repay you with something..."

"No need, though I could trouble you for directions to a hotel..."

"Aw, no wonder you seem so tired... so I guess I can help you by sending you to sleep."

"Huh?"

Suddenly, he felt a stunning jolt to the backs of his necks and fell down to a state of unconsciousness, revealing Makoto.

"Word of advice," She said as the white-clad woman picked up Jethro's hat, placing it on her head and giggled, "Never trust a pretty woman you don't know."

(End Flashback)

---

"Too bad, he was such a gentleman," Shine sighed, but shrugged it off, "Oh well, I got to lure you two here... and if you want to save your friend, follow me to a special, historic dueling arena!"

She then disappeared in a flicker of light and zoomed straight down the docks.

Allen growled.

"Looks like we have to help out Jethro," Lyra said, "No telling what she and whoever she's working with will do to him."

"Yeah and if this arena is where I think she'll be..."

"Don't finish that," The Goth interrupted, "Because is not going to happen..."

---

Minutes later, Lyra and Allen found themselves staring down a large wooden dock with a large square hole in the middle and a giant anchor hanging over head.

"I knew it," Allen muttered, "One of the worst places for the Battle City tournament; Yugi and Joey fighting it out to their doom, thanks to the Rare Hunters' desperation over the Egyptian God Cards."

"Delivering unjust deaths," Lyra added, "Something I hate as well..."

"Hello!"

Over on the left side, Shine was waving them over.

"Alright, we're here," the Obelisk stated, "Where's Jethro?"

"Later sweetie," Shine replied, "I got someone who I want you to meet..."

On cue, a dark portal opened out of the blue. Stepping out of it, a wild black-haired girl as tall as Shine appeared wearing clothes in deep contrast, clad in a black halter top and skirt with fishnet stockings and a ring pierced in her nose.

"Good, they're here," She said in tone like Lyra's, "The name's Dusk."

"So it's going to be a tag-duel," Lyra acknowledged.

"Right you are," Shine said, "Me and Dusk against the two of you!"

"And if we win, we get Jethro back," Allen asked.

"Of course," Dusk replied, "But there's also something else at stake..."

"And what would that be," the Goth asked.

"Your lives!"

Suddenly, four shackles latched onto all four people without a moment's notice.

"Who did that!?" Allen asked.

"Search me," Lyra replied.

"That would be me..."

Everyone turned to see Makoto standing at the right side of the docks.

"Makoto!?" Shine and Dusk shouted.

"Since you're all at the historic site of the life and death match, it might as well look the part," the middle sister stated, "And if you're unfamiliar with the rules, let me run them down for you all..."

She pointed to the anchor with four chains hanging off them and attaching to the shackles.

"As you noticed, the chains you have on are connected to the anchor above our heads," She announced, "Thirty seconds after a player's life points reaches 0, the anchor will drop taking all who are attached to the bottom of the sea."

Everyone gasped.

"Makoto, this wasn't part of the job," Dusk growled.

"Yeah, we were just supposed to duel them and get them out of the way," Shine added with an unhappy look.

"Look below you," Makoto ignored as the duelists looked down and saw a box much like the ones in the underground arena, "The counter is adjusted to your opponent's life points. Once the numbers reach 0, the box will open revealing a key that will unlock your bonds. The winner will have thirty seconds to free him/herself while the loser will be sent on a one-way trip to the bottom of the sea!"

"This is nuts," Allen protested.

"And you'll free Jethro once Allen and I win," Lyra asked, not even batting an eye at the stipulations.

"Of course," Makoto replied, "And I wouldn't think about trying to get any ideas of chickening out, because 60 minutes after the duel begins, the anchor will automatically drop taking everyone to their demise! So the only way to win is to knock out the opponent," She then turned to Shine and Dusk, "And I hope you two have the common sense of winning, otherwise forget any chance of me saving any of you..."

The girls gasped.

"And just to make sure the kids have an incentive to duel..."

She stepped to the side to show Jethro sitting in a metal chair with bonds on his ankles and wrists. He was still unconscious...

"Jethro," Allen cried out while Lyra narrowed her eyes.

"And now, I leave you two to sort it all out..."

Makoto then turned into her vulture form and flew away.

"Now what do we do," Shine whined.

Dusk turned to her opponents and turned on her duel disk, "We duel and give up their lives to save ours..."

Then, Shine developed an evil smirk of her own, "Oh well... not like we aren't the best of the Light Brigade for nothing."

The fairy duelist cringed at the look of the girls' faces, "Okay, they just did a 180 on us..."

Lyra shook her head, "Stupid fools... they knew this was going to happen... we're not compatible, but they are... and if they say they're the best in their group, we're in for the long haul..."

"Don't worry, I won't use any cards to hinder you," Allen stated, knowing one card that could stop Lyra in her tracks.

Lyra sighed, "Don't worry about it," She stated as she and Allen turned on their duel disks.

"DUEL!"

All players drew their opening hands.

Dusk: 8000 + Shine: 8000

Allen: 8000 + Lyra: 8000

The timer started: 60:00:00

"Let's go, shall we," Dusk stated as she drew her sixth card, "I start with four cards facedown and end my turn..."

Four reversed cards appeared on the field.

"Okay, that's your move," Allen shrugged as he drew, "I summon the Radiant Jeral in defense mode!"

A bright portal opened and brought out a round, synthetic angel to the field with many lights and tubes decorating the body. It had two small, white wings and a halo floating on top of its head. (4/1000/2000)

The dark leather girl scoffed, "Figures you'd have a LIGHT monster... so predictable..."

"And what's wrong with them," Allen snapped.

"Nothing, you just have that happy look in your eyes," Dusk stated as she looked to her partner, "Just like someone else I know..."

"It's just who I am," Shine shrugged.

"Okay, but I still don't see how that ties in with the predictability," The fairy duelist pried.

"It activates my trap card, Depth Guiding Light," Dusk announced as she revealed a trap card that showed a person heading towards a bright light at an end of path, "When you summon a LIGHT monster, you first have to send the top 5 cards of your deck to the graveyard!"

"Great..." Allen said sarcastically as he took the top five cards (Soul of Purity and Light, Spirit Barrier, Monster Reborn, Inferno Reckless Summoning and Victoria) to the graveyard.

"Next, you have to draw and reveal the next card of your deck..." She continued.

The Obelisk drew his next card and showed it was the Splendid Venus! Dusk chuckled.

"Too bad, you can't play it right away," She said, "Now you'll have to suffer 2000 points of damage at the end of Shine's turn!"

"Then, I'll suffice with two cards facedown."

Two reversed cards appeared in front of the Obelisk.

"Okay, here I go," Shine giggled as she drew, "I play Soul Exchange to sacrifice your monster, Allen!"

Allen gasped as the soul was extracted from his monster and sent into the white clad girl's spell card, before it shattered.

"And for that, I summon Kuraz the Light Monarch!"

A light pillar shot down from the sky, unleashing a warrior covered head to toe in golden armored, cape and blue gloves. His presence was automatically illuminated by a lone spotlight. (6/2400/1000)

"Darn it..." The fairy duelist growled at his facedown cards, "I can't use my cards to bring out my monster..."

"A monarch monster, of course..." Lyra grumbled as she tried to cover her eyes from the light, "And would you turn down the light?"

"Sorry, no can do," The light user said as she wagged her index finger, "And when this card is Normal or Special Summoned, I get to destroy any two cards on the field!"

Allen eyed his facedown cards, having the feeling it was going to be targeted.

"I destroy two of the facedown cards Dusk has!"

Allen and Lyra narrowed their eyes at the move, as Kuraz launched two light energy blasts at the facedown cards, destroying them.

"And then the owners of those cards get to draw one card for each one destroyed!"

Dusk smirked as she drew her two cards, "And the cards she destroyed, were Statues of the Wicked, summoning two Wicked Tokens to the field in defense mode!"

A dark smoke emerged from the field and brought out two golden worms with two arms and menacing faces. (4/1000/1000) x2

"And I end my turn with this facedown card," Shine concluded.

"Meaning, Allen has to suffer!" Dusk sneered.

A dark light erupted from under Allen, making him cry out in pain.

Dusk: 8000 + Shine: 8000

Allen: 6000 + Lyra: 8000

"Now I'll go and stop this," Lyra said as she drew, "I summon Infernity Guardian in defense mode!"

In a dark prominence, the black, burning skull shield appears. (4/1200/1700)

"And then I'll set two cards facedown and end my turn," She concluded.

"And before that happens, I activate Synthetic Seraphim," Allen added as his trap card flipped face up.

"And comes right back to me," Dusk stated as she drew her next card, "I sacrifice one of my tokens to summon Delg the Dark Monarch!"

A dark portal erupted from the ground, and from it came another monarch monster. This one was decked out in black and grayish armor with a grey cape flowing behind it. The helmet and shoulder armor were shaped like spiked bat wings. (6/2400/1000)

"And that activates my trap card, Intercept," Allen called out as he flipped over his face down card. Ironically enough, it showed Raiza the Storm Monarch being subdued by a capture net, "This card activates when you make a tribute summoning with one sacrifice! Now I gain control of Delg!"

Like the picture of the card, a large, white capture net shot out and proceeded to grab the Monarch.

"And I use my card, Counter Counter," Dusk announced, "The only sure fire way to stop a Counter Trap without any costs!"

Suddenly, a large white outline of the Counter Trap symbol emerged and cut down the trap.

"Still, I get Synthetic Seraphim Tokens for the counter traps being activated as a nice consolation prize," The fairy duelist stated as two small, blue synthetic angels appeared. (1/300/300) x2

"So, you think you've got this all figured out to summon your precious Venus," The dark duelist said as she put a card into the disk, "You're dead wrong! I activate D.D. Designator!"

The spell image appeared showing D.D. Warrior Lady striking with her glowing sword.

"Now I get to declare 1 card's name and see your hand," She grinned, "And if it's in your hand, I get to remove it from play as well! And there's no better choice than your Venus, so let's see those cards!"

Allen growled as he held up his four-card hand, involving the Splendid Venus, Beckoning Light, Field Barrier and Nova Summoner. He grudgingly pocketed his Legendary Planet monster.

"You really have a prissy deck for someone that looks tough," Dusk stated, "And I'll even put you out of your misery with my Forbidden Chalice! Since my monarch can't attack on the same turn it was summoned, I can negate the effect plus give him 400 more ATK!"

A cup of holy water rained down on the Dark Monarch, raising its power a bit. (6/2400-2800/1000)

"Also, I despise the way you hide from attacking me so; I activate my trap card Final Attack Orders forcing all monsters into attack mode!"

Suddenly, an invisible energy forced the Wicked Token, the Synthetic Tokens and Lyra's Infernity Guardian to an upright position.

"Now, let's dish out some more pain! Delg destroy one of those tokens with Spiked Mace!"

The Monarch reached behind his cape and pulled out a handle attached to a chain and spiked ball. He started to rush out at the small token.

"Hold on," Lyra interrupted as she raised her hand at her facedown card, "I activate my Depth Amulet trap card!"

The Goth's trap revealed itself, showing a necklace made of tiny bones with colorful jewels hanging from it.

"I discard one of my cards to negate your attack," She declared as she did just that.

As the mace prepared to slam one of the tokens, a purple barrier blocked the attack before it made the mark on the little synthetic angel.

Dusk scoffed as she inserted her next card into the disk, "Delay all you want; I end my turn by playing the spell card, Veil of Darkness."

The spell card showed a black curtain being dropped over a lone card.

"And I'll go," Allen stated as he drew his next card, "I activate Graceful Charity to draw three cards and send two the graveyard."

After drawing his three cards, he pocketed two cards of what he drew.

"Next, I'll set two cards and summon the Nova Summoner in attack mode!"

After the two reversed cards were set near the fairy duelist's feet, the living angel wreath appeared. (4/1400/800)

"And now, I'll attack the Wicked Token," The Obelisk commanded, "Flying Bright!"

Nova Summoner's bell started ringing loudly as it sent small, white feathers from its form and broke apart the gold token.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 8000

Allen: 6000 + Lyra: 8000

"Alright, that'll be the end of my turn," The fairy duelist concluded.

"Nice work, but it'll be a long shot," Lyra stated, "We need to find a way to hit them harder and faster."

"Well that plan went out the water when she took out Venus," Allen grumbled.

"Excuse me, it's my turn now," Shine declared as she drew, "I summon the Rocket Warrior in attack mode!"

Flying over the dark skies, a green rocket with a yellow and black checkered torso appeared and landed on the field. It then started to transform, splitting its bottom end into two feet, the checkered torso split also creating two arms holding a squared shield with a start and a short sword. Finally, the top part split creating a helmet and revealing a yellow, determined-looking face. (4/1500/1300)

Shine's smile got even creepier once she held up her next card, "And with two Light Monsters on the field, I can summon the Guardian of Order!"

A light pillar erupted from the water, unleashing a giant, white armored warrior with golden lines around it. The giant unleashed a bright radiance, prompting the Infernity duelist to shield her eyes. (8/2500/1200)

"Grr... enough with the light show," Lyra growled.

"Aww, a little too bright," the light warrior duelist pouted, "Good! Rocket Warrior, attack Infernity Guardian with your Invincible Mode!"

The small warrior transformed back into a rocket and then launched itself at the burning skull shield.

"Depth Amulet, defend," Lyra announced as she discarded one of her two cards in her hand, creating the shield to repel the rocket.

"I still have another," Shine announced as her Monarch created a sword of light, "Kuraz, attack!"

"Depth Amulet, again," the Ra shouted as she sent her last card into the graveyard, stopping the sword from reaching her Guardian.

"Looks like you're out of luck this time," Shine smirked, "Which means the Guardian of Order can strike your points and your monster at the same time!"

The armored Guardian charged at the Infernity Guardian and started pummeling the skull head, yet it didn't give in to the destruction. Lyra, on the other hand, started feeling the aftershock of the pain and it showed as her life points dropped.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 8000

Allen: 6000 + Lyra: 6700

"Hey," the light girl shouted, "You're Guardian should be dead by now!"

"Hate to break it to you," Lyra scoffed as she held up her hands, "Infernity Guardian can't be destroyed while I have no cards left in my hand!"

"Well Shine, you have the points, but there's no way of getting to her," Dusk said, matter-of-factly, "What are you going to do now?"

"I'll just use this from my hand," Shine replied as she held up two cards, "Quick Summon! I can use this to bring out my Blade Knight for another summoning!"

Emptying out her hand, Shine brought out a sliver armored warrior holding up a diamond longsword and silver shield. (4/1600/1000)

"And since I don't hold at least 2 cards in my hand, I can boost his power by 400!"

The Knight's diamond sword started to glow pure white. (4/1600-2000/1000)

"Now, you want to keep him out, fine by me! Attack the Guardian again!"

The Knight raised his swords as he charged at the Infernity monster and sliced it across the skull again. Lyra showed a little of bit of pain from the attack as well.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 8000

Allen: 6000 + Lyra: 5900

"Lyra," Allen called out.

"I'm... fine..." She grunted.

"And that will be all," Shine concluded and giggled, "And please be quick..."

The timer had reached 50:00:00 and still counting down.

'At this rate, if don't get our cards, me and Allen will be sinking into the depths...' The Ra thought as she overlooked the field, 'Lucky for me, it's my turn...'

Dusk chuckled, "It's sad to see two kids who have so little promise fall before their dueling career took off."

"Oh well, people live and people die," Shine shrugged, "And we have more a will to live than we do..."

"And what makes you so sure of that," Allen asked, narrowing his eyes at the opponents.

"Just look at the life points, pansy," the dark warrior duelist pointed out, "It's only been a short number of turns and we have you outnumbered and outmatched in every way. And we'll continue this onslaught until Shine and I are free and you two are shark bait in the sea."

"Excuse me," Lyra called out as she drew her lone card, "Enough with the insults and let's play the game!"

"Well, someone's looking death in the face..." the light warrior duelist looked on, "Okay, play your hopeless moves so you can sink already..."

"Gladly," The Goth replied and immediately slapped her card down on her disk, "I summon Infernity Signaler!"

Rising from a dark mist, a bizarre Native American style Infernity with pallid white skin appeared, puffing smoke rings from a pipe. (4/1000/1000)

Shine laughed, "I know you're trying to keep your hand empty, but your luck of the draw sucks!"

Allen growled, hating how they were putting down his partner.

"And maybe you shouldn't judge a book by its cover," Lyra replied, narrowing her eyes, "Signaler, attack Rocket Warrior!"

The Infernity blew out a large puff of smoke from the pipe and then it formed into a large, snarling demon, charging at the rocket.

"Too easy," the Light duelist clapped, "Rocket Warrior, show her why smoking is bad for you!"

Assuming its rocket form again, it charged at the smoke and blew it away. Next, it changed direction and pierced through white skinned Infernity and broke him apart, only leaving the pipe dropping to the floor.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 8000

Allen: 6000 + Lyra: 5400

"At this rate, we'll be out of the shackles before the 30-minute mark," Dusk chuckled darkly, "And I thought the prissy fairy duelist would be the first to fall."

"Sorry to prove you wrong," Shine smiled at her partner, "She's just a lot dumber than I thought."

"And you seem to forget my Signaler had a special ability," Lyra groaned, pointing to the pipe that the Signaler left behind, "Without a hand, I can special summon an Infernity Monster that's level 4 or below from my deck," She then took a out a card from her deck and summoned it on the field, "Infernity Archfiend, answer my call!"

A demonic laughter filled the air as the red-haired, blue-skinned archfiend descended from a sigil in the sky. (4/1800/1200)

"And with no cards in my hand, since he was special summoned, I can take an Infernity monster and add it to my hand!"

Lyra then took out another card from her deck and showed the card to her opponent's, "I select Infernity Shaman!"

"Goodie," Shine grinned, "Since your monster's effects happen while you have a hand, "I can use my trap card, Luster Purge!"

The Light Brigade duelist activate her trap card, revealing the Guardian of Order unleash a massive, light energy blast at Illusionist Faceless Mage.

"I can use this card to destroy the weakest DARK attribute monster and deal damage to you by their defense points," she informed, "And since your Guardian's the weakest, you'll be losing 1700 points!"

Allen gasped, 'That'll take her down to nearly 3000 points left! And I can't use my cards, they only help me out!'

"Time for another blast, Guardian of Order destroy Infernity Guardian!"

The Guardian of Order's helmet crest began to shine and started to concentrate a giant ball of light.

"He won't be going anywhere," Lyra shouted as she flipped over her facedown card, "I activate my MY Quick Summon spell and bring in my Infernity Shaman!"

As the blast fired, another dark mist conjured up and unleashed a shaman-style monster with pale white skin, wearing black robes and a headdress of raven feathers. (4/1500/1500) Sensing its presence, Infernity Guardian was able to endure the painful Luster Purge from destroying it. Shine growled and Lyra smirked.

"Not only, does my Guardian stay safe without my hand, but now with Shaman's effect he and other others gain 500 ATK and DEF," She continued.

The Shaman started chanting in an ominously, mystic voice as he, Infernity Guardian and Infernity Archfiend gained dark auras. (4/1500-2000/1500-2000), (4/1200-1700/1700-2200), (4/1800-2300/1200-1700)

"Now, I'm in the mood for a little payback," the Infernity duelist stated as she turned to her Shaman, "Shaman, the Rocket Warrior's yours! Hell Prominence!"

The Shaman chanted differently this time and launched a black shot of flames from its hands and incinerated the rocket into oblivion.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 7500

Allen: 6000 + Lyra: 5400

"And Archfiend, take the Blade Knight! Hell Pressure!"

The Archfiend also chanted in a demonic voice and created a fiery seal from above. A large, demonic hand broke out of the seal and smashed the Knight into dust.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 7200

Allen: 6000 + Lyra: 5400

"Looks like we're making progress," Allen smiled.

"I end my turn," Lyra concluded, pleased with her work.

Dusk scoffed, "Looks like the girl wears the pants of the tag team."

The Obelisk duelist blushed as Shine snickered and Lyra groaned.

"Are you still on me about having fairies as the theme of my deck," Allen asked, feeling flustered, "It's not my fault my deck uses them, and I happen to like them so enough with the insults and stereotyping."

"Alright then," the dark warrior muttered as drew her next card and turned it over, "I have my Necro Guardna, which I'll send to the graveyard and activate Veil of Darkness' effect, letting me draw again!"

After discarding her monster, she drew another card and played her next card, "I summon Chthonian Soldier!"

In a flash, a warrior in dark body armor and a dark green wrap around shirt appeared with a giant, curved blade in his hand. (4/1200/1400)

"And now, attack his Synthetic Token! Chthonian Slash!"

The soldier rushed down the field and slashed the small angel into pixels.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 7200

Allen: 4900 + Lyra: 5400

"Now Delg, attack his second one with Dark Mace!"

The dark armored Monarch swung his mace once again and smashed the second angel plus unleashing aftershock coursing through Allen, leaving him writhing in pain.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 7200

Allen: 2600 + Lyra: 5400

Lyra cringed at the pain her partner was going through and from the scores, a lot more than she endured.

Dusk laughed, "I can't wait for you to sink, loser! Playing those fairy cards will get you killed with me..."

"And soon, we'll be out of the shackles and leaving the kids drowning in the ocean," Shine added.

Allen shook off the pain and then turned over his face down cards with two pushes of the buttons on his disk, "Well, before you keep downing me, I'll activate the Beckoning Light trap card and the Emergency Provisions spell card!"

As both cards turned over, the Beckoning Light and Synthetic Seraphim transformed into white sparkles in a quick second...

"First, Emergency Provisions gives me 1000 points for every spell and trap card I send off the field..."

The white sparkles seeped into his body, restoring his health...

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 7200

Allen: 4600 + Lyra: 5400

"And now, I'll use Beckoning Light's effect to send all the cards in my hand to the grave and get a number of LIGHT monsters equal to the number of cards sent," He continued discarding his lone card and gaining back one of them that slid out of the graveyard, "And I'll regain the Soul of Purity and Light!"

"Even with that boost, you still won't win..." Dusk stated.

"Wanna bet," Allen said as drew his next card and smiled, "It's time to start my come back! I remove Radiant Jeral and Royal Knight from the game to summon the Soul of Purity and Light!"

Radiant Jeral and Royal Knight flew out of the graveyard in two small lights and combined to make a portal. Emerging from it, a completely transparent and beautiful silver-haired angel appeared wearing a flowing white gown. (6/2000/1800)

Immediately, she flew right behind Allen and lightly wrapped her arms around him in an embrace and resting her head on his, like mother would to a child. The Obelisk closed his eyes and warmly smiled.

"Hi Mom," He whispered to her.

All the girls looked at him strangely at the expression.

"Okay..." Shine muttered, "What's going on with him?"

"You'd think he was attached to a monster hologram of all things," Dusk scoffed.

Lyra stared silently and intriguingly as Allen woke up from his bliss. 'There's that same look he had when I dueled him,' she thought, 'I guess it comes from his family since he did say it was that kind of deck...'

"And next, I attack with Nova Summoner," Allen announced.

"Go ahead," Dusk challenged, "We'll both lose 200 points thanks to my Chthonian Soldier's effect!"

"Not my target," the Obelisk stated as he turned to his monster, "Attack her Delg!"

The flying wreath charged at the Dark Monarch, only to be crushed into pixels by the mace.

Dusk: 7600 + Shine: 7200

Allen: 3600 + Lyra: 5400

"Someone's a little sidetracked..." Dusk smirked, "Or have you forgotten that Delg outweighed your Nova Summoner..."

"I guess you don't know about Nova Summoner's special effect," Lyra interrupted.

"What?"

"You should really shut up now," the Goth continued, "I believe his 'prissy little fairies' are about to mount a comeback..."

"Well said, Lyra," Allen smiled as he turned back to the remains of the Nova Summoner, "Now since my monster was destroyed in battle, I can summon a LIGHT Fairy-type monster with up to 1500 ATK and I'll pick Freya, the Spirit of Victory!"

The remains unleashed a light that brought out the chipper cheerleading fairy. (1/100/100)

"You expect her to scare me," Dusk shouted, "She's not even worth my time!"

Freya stuck her tongue out at the dark duelist and crossed her arms.

"If the notion of her being off limits with another fairy on the field, along with her pepping up all Fairy type monster with 400 ATK and DEF, then yes," Allen grinned.

Dusk cringed as Freya started doing her cheers while the Soul of Purity and Light smiled at her exuberance. (1/100-500/100-500), (6/2000-2400/1800-2200)

"Oh great..." She muttered.

The Obelisk turned to the angel hugging him, "Could you attack the Chthonian Solider, please?"

The angel smiled warmly until she gave an angry glare at the soldier. She then gave off an extremely bright aura that even made Allen glow and launched a white beam, purging the Chthonian Soldier from the field.

"You'll take the same damage as me," Dusk stated as the sword of the soldier flew out of nowhere and headed towards the Obelisk, Luckily, he moved his duel disk in time so the blade only nicked it a little.

Dusk: 6400 + Shine: 7200

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 5400

"No pain, no gain," Allen shrugged as he placed his final card into his disk, "And then, I'll end my turn with this facedown card!"

"Well, someone's close to losing," Shine said in sing-song voice as she drew her next card, "I'll just have to up the ante a bit, instead of attacking little miss Goth again, I'll go after the Soul of Purity and Light with my Guardian of Order!"

Hearing the command, the giant Guardian rose up to the sky and then flew forward, extending his punch towards Allen.

Despite all that, Allen and Lyra grinned as she knew what was next, Dusk gasped as she also figured out about the monster, "Shine, wait!"

"Too late, my Soul of Purity of Light's effect activates," Allen chuckled, "During the Battle Phase, all opponent's monsters lose 300 ATK!"

Allen's aura suddenly gave off tiny light particles around him as the Soul took her place in front of him and shot them at Delg, Kuraz and the Guardian of Order. (6/2400-2100/1000) x2, (8/2500-2200/1200)

"Counterattack," Allen announced.

The Soul just put up one hand to stop the Guardian's punch in its tracks. She then tapped it again and without a moment's notice, the armored monster shattered into pixels!

Dusk: 6400 + Shine: 7000

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 5400

Shine screamed, "Oh no, he took out one of my best monsters!"

"You shouldn't have attack too soon," Dusk scolded, "Stay on the Goth girl's side and pummel her! I'll deal with him!"

"Hey, I didn't see it coming," the Light girl shouted back, "Besides, it's just a minor setback!"

"Well don't make another one," the Dark girl growled, "Just get your turn over with; we got about 35 minutes left!"

Gasping, Shine took one of her cards and inserted into her disk, "I activate the Shine Palace on my Kuraz then, giving him 700 ATK!"

Kuraz gained a bright, white aura as he reveled in the power. (6/2400-3100/1000)

"And then, I'll place this card facedown," She concluded.

"And it's my move," Lyra declared as she drew, "I activate Graceful Charity as letting me draw three cards and getting rid of two!"

She drew her three cards, discarded two of them and put it into her disk.

"I'll set this facedown card and end my turn," The Ra concluded.

"Good, it's speeding up," Dusk said as she drew, "I activate Card of Demise!"

She drew out her five-card hand and smiled at her find, "Now I play Necro Sacrifice! It lets me summon a level 5 or higher monster from my hand without a sacrifice on the field, but I have to summon a monster from my graveyard to your field."

"And you're being generous, why," Allen asked.

"Because no matter what I choose, it'll be in attack mode," the dark duelist said as a monster card slipped out of her graveyard, "Now, I send Chthonian Soldier to your field!"

Appearing next to Freya, the dark armored soldier reappeared. (4/1200/1400)

"Now, I summon Penumbral Sword Lady to the field!"

Allen gasped as a tall, blonde woman appeared decked out in sliver armor and skirt, bearing her midriff. She also carried a sword and shield with her that, along with her armor, carried a symbol of a green crescent moon on them. (6/2100/1200)

"Aw man, a monster gains power over a LIGHT monster," the fairy duelist groaned.

"Don't like that do you," Dusk smirked as she held up another card, "And I'll even add to the torment with Fusion Sword Murasame Blade! It gives her an extra 800 ATK and the card itself is immune to spell cards!"

The sword woman's blade transformed into a slender, wicked looking sword that gave off a dark aura. (6/2100-2900/1200)

"As if she wasn't powerful enough," Lyra gasped.

"Well, I'm about to make weaker, by activating the Miraculous Descent trap card," Allen announced as he revealed his facedown card. It showed Layard the Liberator descending from the heavens.

"What does that do, summon more of your prissy fairies," Dusk waved off.

"No, its special summons a fairy monster removed from play," the Obelisk grinned.

Shine and Dusk gasped, while Lyra gave off a dark grin to her opponents.

"Yup, it's the monster you kept away from the beginning," Allen announced as he raised his hand to the skies, "Now descend, Splendid Venus!"

The dark clouds started to shine a bright white light as the Legendary Planet angel descended to the field and set her staff on the ground. Freya cheered for the great angel's arrival. (8/2900-3300/2400-2800)

"And now, since she's all here, all non-Fairy monsters lose 500 ATK and DEF," He continued, "And that'll make a hindrance to your team game plan!"

Dusk smirked, "But you just hindered your partner as well!"

"She's right," Lyra grumbled, "My monsters are not fairies, remember?"

Allen slapped his forehead as Venus' armor gave off a blinding light that started to make nearly all the monsters present feel weaker.

Chthonian Soldier started to forsake his blade and shield his eyes from the burning light. (4/1200-700/1400-900)

Delg and the Penumbral Sword Lady cringed and kept up their guard, despite their power dropping. (6/2400-1900/1000-500), (6/2900-2400/1200-700)

Kuraz didn't react much, but felt his aura waning a bit... (6/3100-2600/1000-500)

Then, it was a bad day for Lyra's Infernities as they tried to stay strong among the light. (4/1700-1200/2200-1700), (4/2000-1500/2000-1500), (4/2300-1800/1700-1200)

"Sorry about that Lyra," Allen said sheepishly.

"See why you're the weakest link," the dark duelist stated, "You don't keep your effects from harming your partner! Now it's time for me to chip away at your power draining scheme, by first attacking the Soul of Purity and Light!"

As the sword lady drew her sword, the Soul's white aura weakened her and Delg little further... (6/2400-2100/1200), (6/1900-1600/500)

"But even though, the effect reduces my monster's ATK by 300, she'll increase hers by 1000 when attacking a LIGHT monster," She continued, "Now, take down that Soul!"

The sword lady yelled out a battle cry as she charged straight at Allen and the Soul.

"But she won't attack, your Monarch will," Lyra interrupted as she revealed her trap card, "Dark Spirit of the Slient, stop Penumbral Sword Lady and force Delg to fight!"

A red, demonic looking ghost shot out the trap card and slammed itself into sword woman.

Dusk growled, "No!"

Delg took it upon himself to swing his mace at the Allen with an incredible force backing it up. But the Soul was not too happy about that as she blocked the mace and then fired a giant wave of light, breaking apart the dark monarch.

Dusk: 5600 + Shine: 7000

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 5400

"Hey, thanks for the save," Allen said to his partner.

"You're going to start owing me," She replied, "Especially with Venus around..."

"No sweat, just as soon as I get some cards to do that," the Obelisk declared as he gave her a thumbs up.

Dusk gritted her teeth as she put her final two cards into the disk, "I'll place two cards facedown, end of turn!"

"And I guess it's my turn," Allen declared as he drew and immediately played, "I play Pot of Greed," He drew out two more cards from his deck and smirked at his find, "It's time for more payback from those fairy comments! I activate the Equip Spell Card Snatch Steal!"

The Light Brigade duo gasped as they saw the spell image of a green haired bandit stealing a parcel from an irate brown-haired man.

"And it's no surprise I'm deciding to take control of your Penumbral Sword Lady," He continued, "But at least you'll be compensated from your troubles since 1000 life points will be added to your score during your standby phases. But adding up the scores, you'll be gone long after that!"

The spell started to shine on the sword lady, about to steal away her free will.

"I will not let you have my monster," Dusk retaliated by activating her facedown card, "I activate Interdimensional Matter Transporter to remove her from the game for this round!"

A giant, futuristic sliver transporter appeared and digitized Dusk's only monster into the machine, dropping the sword and letting Snatch Steal die out.

"Too bad, that Sword can't go along for the ride," Allen smirked, "Now, I got you wide open for a triple direct attack and it'll still be enough to take out one of you... Venus, strike first with Holy Feather Shower!"

The armored fairy spread her long wings and fired thousands of feathers heading straight for the dark warrior duelist.

"You forgot that I have Necro Guardna in my graveyard," Dusk shouted as she removed the mentioned monster from her graveyard and held it up, "By removing it from play, I get to negate one attack!"

A transparent image of a warrior dressed in grey, maroon, and black armor with long white hair that fell to his knees appeared. (3/600/1300) He crossed his arms and took the feathers into his body like arrows before vanishing off the field.

"I knew you'd wait for it," Allen smiled, "But you remember that I have my Soul of Purity and Light along with Freya to attack with," He looked to both of his monsters, "Ladies, have fun!"

The Soul flew from Allen's back on to Freya's as both fairies zoomed across the field and delivered a striking one-two punch to Dusk's face, sending her to her knees.

Dusk: 2700 + Shine: 7000

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 5400

"We're finally down to the wire," Lyra praised, "Just focus on finishing her now, and we'll see to getting her out after Shine's done."

"You got it," Allen replied, "And then, I'll end with a facedown card. And that means Penumbral Sword Lady returns and gets weaker because of Venus' effect."

The transported released the sword woman and placed her right back on the field. (6/2100-1600/1200-700)

"Don't get cocky just because you put Dusk through the wringer," Shine declared as she drew, "Now it's time to break this cycle with Spellbook Inside the Pot! That means with cards in your hand Lyra, your monsters get even weaker!"

The Infernity duelist growled as everyone drew their three cards and Shaman's chant stopped. (4/1200-700/1700-1200), (4/1500-1000/1500-1000), (4/1800-1300/1200-700)

"Sad that your partner and I are hindering you now," the light warrior grinned as she placed another card on the field, "And allow me to keep it up with summoning the Creator Incarnate!"

Jumping out of the card image, an all-orange armored warrior appeared. His red cape blew right behind, drawing his sword. (4/1600-1100/1500-1000)

"And even though he's strong enough to take out the Shaman and your Guardian," Shine continued, "I'll bring out his true power with another card!"

"Oh man..." Allen grumbled.

"You mean the..."

"That's right," Shine smirked as the warrior incarnation vanished into the skies, "By sacrificing the Creator Incarnate, I can summon his past self, the Creator!"

Once again, the dark clouds brightened up and shone a spotlight onto the floor. Thunderbolts crashed down to the water and brought down large monster, wearing a heavier armor than the incarnation. The differences were that this monster had a monstrous looking mouth and giant wings on its back. (8/2300-1800/3000-2500)

"It may be a giant, but all I see is another powered down monster joining your worthless Light Monarch," Lyra stated, "So what's the catch?"

"The catch is, he's my monsters' revival ticket," Shine stated, "By discarding one card from my hand I can summon a monster from my graveyard, letting me in on destroying all of yours!"

She then discarded one of her cards, and brought out another monster from her graveyard and revealed it to the Goth.

"So, by sending this card to the graveyard, I can revive my Guardian of Order!"

The Creator launched a thunderbolt into the skies, grabbing a part of the cloud and landed it right in front of him. Then, he started to tear the dark cloud apart and reshaped into the form of the white armored monster. Finally, it fed the monster-shaped cloud electricity and seconds later, the Guardian of Order broke out of the cloud and lifted his right fist into the air. (8/2500-2000/1200-700)

"All flair, huh," The Goth scoffed.

"Keep laughing little girl, as I up the ante by using this card, Pump Up on my Kuraz, doubling his attack points for the turn!"

Now Lyra gasped in fear as the Light Monarch double in size and in strength. (6/2600-4200/500)

'I don't have anything on the field that can protect my monsters,' She thought, 'And with all of those points, I'll be close to sinking at the bottom of the sea!'

"Here it comes," Shine announced, "Kuraz, attack the Infernity Guardian with Shining Fist!"

The Light Monarch roared as his fist started to glow very brightly and launched straight at flaming skull shield while Lyra braced herself for the big damage.

"Now you hold it!"

Everyone turned to see Allen with an angry look on his face.

"With all the help Lyra provided to me, it's time I gave her some assistance of my own," He shouted as he flipped over his facedown card, "And it comes into my trap card, Dimension Wall!"

"Dimension Wall!"

"Right, you can destroy the monster, but all the battle damage goes straight to you," the Obelisk grinned.

The Monarch's fist connected with the Guardian, a dimensional rift opened behind it as the force pushed it inside, nearly spooking Lyra. The next thing Shine realizes that a portal opens behind her and...

"AAHH!"

She screams as the Infernity Guardian comes out and explodes into pixels all around her, damaging her points to an extensive drop.

Dusk: 2700 + Shine: 3500

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 5400

Lyra let out a big sigh of relief knowing that her life points would stay at a high amount. She then turned to Allen who was smiling back at her.

"Told ya I had your back," He said with a grin, "Sorry it was later than sooner!"

The Infernity duelist smiled and shook her head, "It's alright. You just saved me from dealing with a large drop in points."

"Happy to help!"

"Excuse me," Shine interrupted, "I like to get on with my move, Creator attacks the Infernity Shaman with Holy Storm!"

The giant god-like monster raised his hands up to the skies and brought down a lightning storm that obliterated the Shaman on the spot, making Lyra shield herself.

Dusk: 2700 + Shine: 3500

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 4600

"And now, Guardian of Order, attack Infernity Archfiend!"

Finally, the white armored guardian flew at the smaller archfiend and pummeled it with a right hand.

Dusk: 2700 + Shine: 3500

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 3900

"Now that your field is empty, you're just a couple of attacks away from take a dip in the pool," The light warrior duelist grinned, "So make your move and..."

"Just shut up and let me draw," Lyra interrupted, making the white clad girl growl, "You want us to make our moves quick and yet you're the one stalling..."

"You little...

"My turn," the Goth interrupted again as drew. She then gave of a little, unnerving stare to her opponent's as she held the card she obtained in front of her mouth, "Now, I can finally invite my ultimate monster to our battle!"

"Without monsters," Dusk asked.

"Anything is possible for a girl with a thrill for the dark..." Lyra replied using another card from her hand and dropping another into the graveyard, "I start with Cost Down, discarding once to reduce all monsters in my hand by two stars!"

'My guess is she'll use Infernity Destroyer,' Allen deduced, 'It's been the only monster capable of dealing the big damage, and with Shine and Dusk's scores at an overall 3000 points together, she'll need another power boost...'

"And next, I'll place this card facedown," Lyra continued as she set a reversed card at her feet. She then turned to Allen as asked, "Allen, you don't want Dusk's Chthonian Soldier cluttering up the field, right?"

"Oh, knock yourself out," the Obelisk offered, "If it helps speed this thing up, then by all means."

"Thank you," She replied and turned back to the opponents, "I'll sacrifice Chthonian Soldier to bring out a monster with unfathomable power...!"

(Play One-Winged Angel (Advent Children Version))

Chthonian Soldier vanished into a dark beam that shot into the clouds, opening a big gaping hole through it.

"Lyra... what's going on," Allen asked, feeling a chill in the air.

"Just wait and see," She replied.

Suddenly, a light shone down on the entire battlefield making everyone look up at where it came from. The dark clouds were now circling around the skies and showed that it was still a few minutes of sun left in the day. But the next sight made Allen, Dusk and Shine opened their mouths wide in awe and fear something descended from the clouds.

A strange human-like figure started to slowly fly down to the field in the form of a silver-haired man from the waist up. He came out with his chest bare and muscled with his arms spread out. His left arm was normal with the palm facing upwards, but his right arm was a long purple-black wing with feathers that were as sharp and deadly as blades. His face showed no emotion, even in his sharp, blue eyes. Behind the shoulders were two large golden halos shining brightly. From the waist down, his humanity disappeared in the form of six large white wings tipped with purple that kept him afloat above his mistress. (8/3000/2000)

"W-Who is that...," Shine gasped.

"Meet Infernity Demiurge, my ultimate destroyer," Lyra announced proudly as her monster let out a dark laugh, "And unlike most of my monsters, he's a fairy type, so he's unaffected by Splendid Venus!"

"Oh, cool," The Obelisk exclaimed, "Now I can stop worrying so much on how that's hindering you."

"And to show you how much Allen's helping me out even more is Freya's effect boosting Demiurge's power by 400 ATK and DEF!"

Shine and Dusk gasped as Demiurge looked down on them with his cold stare. (8/3000-3400/2000-2400)

"Now, for his special power," the Infernity duelist continued, looking to her monster, "I can have him destroy one card on the field and use an effect depending on that card's type," She then glared at the second largest monster on the field, "And first up... is the Creator! Destroy it with Pale Horse!"

Conjuring up a large blue orb in the palm of his human hand, Infernity Demiurge pointed it at the Creator and completely obliterated the large thunder monster into nothing.

"And since a monster was destroyed, Demiurge causes my opponent to lose 100 life points x the level, meaning 800 points are deducted!"

Shine screamed as the blue blast shocked her duel disk and into her body.

Dusk: 2700 + Shine: 2700

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 3900

"And now, it's time for the real attack," Lyra announced, "Infernity Demiurge, attack Penumbral Sword Lady with Havoc Wing!"

Demiurge's wing arm started to glow deep black and made a slashing motion toward the sword lady. Even though it never touched her, she was cut in half before exploding into pixels.

Dusk: 900 + Shine: 2700

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 3900

"This is not happening..." Dusk seethed, "I will not go down..."

"Cry me a river, "The Goth announced, "And that's my turn... and with only 10 minutes left on the clock, you'll be the one heading in..."

"Fat chance..." Dusk snarled as she drew, "First, I'll use my spell card Magical Planter to destroy Final Attack Orders and draw two cards," Final Attack Orders shattered into pixels as she drew two cards, "Now, I set one card facedown and one monster in defense mode to end my turn."

"Out of luck, huh," Allen stated as he drew his next card, "I'll send Venus in to attack and end the duel! Holy Feather Shower!"

Venus once again fired her feathers from her wings like arrows, heading towards the dark warrior girl.

"It's not going to happen," Dusk shouted as she revealed her facedown card, showing a brown-haired man being defended by a wind of cards, "I activate Card Defense! It discards one card from my hand and negates your attack and after that, I draw another card!"

After discarding a card, a spiral grid of cards appeared around in and in front of the dark warrior duelist and took the feathers head on. During the attack, Dusk drew another card.

"Aw man," Allen said, snapping his fingers, "I'll send in Soul of Purity and Light to attack then!"

The Soul fired another light orb at the card, shattering it into pixels.

"Alright Freya it's time for a direct attack! Power Cheer!"

The Spirit of Victory started to run at the dark warrior duelist like doing a cheer routine and then struck with a spinning kick.

Dusk: 400 + Shine: 2700

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 3900

"And I'll end this with a facedown card," Allen concluded. 'I almost got her down, but I need to time it right so that Lyra and I can both get out and with Jethro, too.'

"Let's see here, my draw," Shine said as she drew, "I place two cards facedown and end my turn."

Two facedown cards were set near the light warrior duelist's feet.

"For the end," Lyra stated as she drew, "I set one card facedown..."

A facedown card appeared at her feet.

"Now, I activate my Demiurge's ability, destroying your facedown card! Pale Horse!"

As the large, flying Infernity charged up for another blast, Shine quickly revealed her facedown card, showing a silhouette of an angel firing a giant light ray.

"I'll activate Solar Ray," She announced, dealing 600 points of damage for all of my LIGHT monsters on the field!"

The trap card fired a giant, white ray at the Infernity duelist, damaging her points before Demiurge blasted the trap card to oblivion.

Dusk: 400 + Shine: 2700

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 2700

"Hey Lyra, you alright," Allen asked, concerned for her safety.

"Now we're tied up on points," Shine smirked, "But at least I'll see to my victory and my partner's as well!"

"Still, since Demiurge destroyed your trap card, you lose the top 2 cards of your deck," Lyra stated.

"So what..." The light warrior duelist shrugged as she dropped two cards from her deck.

"And now, I'll destroy the Guardian of Order with Demiurge! Go Havoc Wing!"

Once again, the one-winged angel struck with his un-touching wing slash, cutting the warrior in half before it perished into the water.

Dusk: 400 + Shine: 900

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 2700

"I end my turn," Lyra concluded. "Now get a move on..."

"Enough of this..." Dusk growled as she drew, "I set this card facedown and its back to you..."

A facedown card appeared at Dusk's feet.

"My move," Allen announced as he drew.

"Go trap card, Thunder of Ruler," the dark warrior duelist interrupted as thunderbolt struck the middle of the pool, "With this, you're not allowed to enter your Battle Phase this turn!"

The Obelisk growled, "I'll set this down and switch Freya to defense mode."

Freya sat down on her knees and defended with her pom-poms while a facedown card appeared behind her.

"And my turn," Shine said as she drew and grinned at the card she just drew, "Perfect, I've just drawn the card that'll destroy you both! And it's more fitting to destroy both of you with it..."

Allen and Lyra looked on with wondering looks.

"Now, I remove a LIGHT monster, my Rocket Warrior and a DARK monster, my Armageddon Knight..."

"Wait a second," Allen interrupted, "When did you have a DARK monster in the graveyard?"

"I discarded him when I used the Creator's effect," The light warrior duelist stated as a white portal opened up from behind her, "And by removing those monsters from play, I can summon my Black Luster Soldier – Envoy of the Beginning!"

The Academy kids gasped as a tall, fierce warrior in dark blue armor with golden linings, a curved blade, and an almost triangular shield with the same coloring as its armor appeared through the white vortex and prepared his sword for battle. (8/3000-2500/2500-2000)

"Not an Envoy monster," Lyra protested.

"Man, this is not happening..." Allen growled.

"You better believe it," Dusk grinned, "And that means you two are in for a world of hurt!"

"Well said, Dusk," the Light Warrior duelist said as she turned to her opponents, "And now I'll get to knock you two on your butts! First, I'll activate his special ability! I'll remove one monster from the game in exchange for his right to attack," She then pointed to her target, "And there's none other than the Splendid Venus!"

Allen gasped as he looked at his monster.

"Soldier, show Venus the way to the void!"

The Envoy of the Beginning let out a roar as he slashed his sword across Venus' mask, not only creating a diagonal crack but a vortex in front of her face. The black portal sucked her inside, ejecting her from the duel.

"Venus," Allen cried out.

"And since she's gone, my Soldier goes back to full power," Shine rejoiced as the Envoy of the Beginning regained his full strength. (8/2500-3000/2000-2500)

"But since you used his effect, Black Luster Soldier cannot attack," Lyra stated.

"And I have a facedown card to change all of that, my Axe of Foolishness boosting his ATK power by 1000!"

The blade glowed white as it morphed into a large, silver axe but with an additional accessory: a goofy, looking face in the middle of the blade. (8/3000-4000/2500)

"You may have the strongest monster, but you still can't make an attack with that monster," the Infernity duelist repeated, "Why are you making such a pointless move?"

"It's because Axe of Foolishness negates the effect(s) of a monster," the Light Warrior duelist grinned, shutting Lyra up, "Now let's make sure your Demiurge doesn't mess with me anymore... Black Luster Soldier, use your Luster Slash Attack on that thing!"

The powerful Warrior raised his axe and in a flurry, slashing the air, sending blurry copy images of the weapon across the field, striking and destroying the giant angel in a flurry of black wings. (8/4000-3700/2500)

Dusk: 400 + Shine: 900

Allen: 2400 + Lyra: 2000

Lyra grumbled at the loss of her powerful monster and glared at Shine who put on a mock worried look.

"Oops, was I not supposed to do that," She stated, "Silly me... but that's what happens when you leave a pathetic and worthless monster on the field..."

Lyra practically snatched the next top card of her deck in anger.

"My cards are not worthless..." she growled in a low tone that sounded dangerous, "And you will respect them... I set this card facedown and end my turn..."

A facedown card appeared next to her other...

"Ooh, scary..." Dusk taunted as she drew her next card and played it on the field, "I activate Infernal Transaction!"

A spell card appeared showing a demonic hand busting out of a lava pit.

"This spell card allows me to take any spell card I want from my graveyard," she explained, "but first one of you has to summon a monster with 2000 ATK or more from your graveyard! And Goth Girl, that's you!"

"Okay, I summon a monster I sent there with my Graceful Charity, Infernity Destroyer!"

Rising from a pillar of flames was the demonic, muscular beast that growled and glared menacingly at Shine and Dusk. (6/2300/1100)

"And I'll pick my Card of Demise to draw out five cards from my deck," Dusk stated as she retrieved her spell card and immediately played it, "I'd worry about the losing the whole hand in five turns, but that wouldn't be necessary in my case!"

She drew five cards and grinned at her find.

"Yes, now you all will die," She rejoiced, "Like my partner I do have at least one LIGHT monster in my deck and thanks to the angel kid, I have it in their..."

Allen and Lyra gasped again.

"She has the other one," the fairy duelist realized.

"That's right," Dusk grinned as a dark vortex appeared over her head, "I remove the DARK attribute Chthonian Soldier and the LIGHT monster A/D Changer in my graveyard and summon the Chaos Emperor Dragon – Envoy of the End!"

As the two mentioned monsters jumped into the vortex, it grew larger and let out a dark, howling wind. Emerging from it, a black dragon with massive wings, powerful arms, legs, and a tail, and an orange mane of hair on its head appeared with a mighty roar. (8/3000/2500)

"Now, I can see why they are the best of their group," Allen stated, "With both Envoy Monsters on their side, they have a force to be reckoned with!"

"Still, 3000 ATK are becoming a dime a dozen," Lyra added, "Plus, she can't use that monster's special ability without giving up 1000 points. So, we're not sunk yet..."

"Oh you will be, especially with my next card, Mind Monster to dish out some pain," The dark warrior duelist exclaimed as the spell card flashed in her hands, creating a small, blue plasma fiend with no face, "Now I get to name any monster that's in someone's Main Deck or Fusion Deck. And fairy boy, I'll say you have a Voltanis the Adjudicator in that deck given all the counter traps in your deck!"

Allen's eyes widened as the Mind Monster morphed into a blue image of the mentioned monster.

"And since it has 2800 ATK, Mind Monster deals half of its ATK as damage to you! I hope this hurts..."

The large fairy fired off a dark beam from his staff and shot Allen right in the gut, making him cry out in pain.

Dusk: 400 + Shine: 900

Allen: 1000 + Lyra: 2000

"Allen...," Lyra said as she watched her partner get nailed again.

The fairy duelist turned to his partner and gave her an assuring grin, "I'm good... a little banged up maybe..."

"And while you're trying to be tough, I activate my facedown card, Gift of the Mystical Elf to regain my life points by 300 times the number of monsters on the field!"

Dusk revealed her facedown card as all monsters on the field gave off a small pink glow, rejuvenating the dark warrior duelist's life points.

Dusk: 1900 + Shine: 900

Allen: 1000 + Lyra: 2000

"She's got enough life points now," the Academy kids gasped.

Dusk grinned as she raised her hand, "Now, I activate the power of the Envoy of the End, paying 1000..."

Dusk: 900 + Shine: 900

Allen: 1000 + Lyra: 2000

"I'll destroy everything in our hands and field to deal 300 points of damage for each of them! And just in time with one minute left on the clock!"

Sure enough, the timer on the anchor did show it was on its last minute...

"And then we'll get out of here and watch you two go for a dip," Shine added, "And we can keep on weeding out the weak until we reach our intended targets!"

"It won't happen...," Lyra stated, "You won't win this duel..."

"Oh, and you're going to stop me..." Dusk asked, mockingly as the dragon charged up the flames in its mouth, "Try it!"

The dragon stretched its neck back as Lyra stared intently at the opposing dark girl...

"Not me... him..."

*CLICK*

Dusk tensed up hearing that clicking sound and something cold pressed against her duel disk arm.

"Huh..."

Shine suddenly screamed, "Dusk, look!"

Dusk turned to the left and screamed as well...

In between the Light Brigade duo, a demon with a white horned skull for head stood right next to Dusk, pointing a pistol at her Duel Disk. It wore an opened red coat, revealing a green body with a set of red eyes staring, blue jeans and a holster strapped to its hip. (1/0/0)

Noticing the stunned looked of her opponents, Lyra took the opportunity to speak out.

"Say 'hi' to Infernity Death Gunman, another card sent there from my Graceful Charity card," She informed them, holding up the monster's card in her right hand, "While having no cards in my hand, I can remove this card from my graveyard when I'm about to take effect damage."

Allen was even speechless as he stood there waiting for the move to unfold.

The Infernity duelist drew her top card without looking at it, "Now I have to draw and you have to choose the next thing that happens... if you decide to chicken out, Allen and I don't lose any damage... However, if the card I just drew is a monster card, all damage will converge on you!"

Dusk tensed up even more, 'No! I was so close, I can't negate the damage either! Not with the timer so close to 0...'

"And to tell you the truth," Lyra smiled, "I've forgotten how many monster cards are in my deck... so, take your pick because either way, someone's going in the water, despite me not knowing what this card is... because if the card I drew is not a Monster card, the damage to me and Allen doubles..."

'Are you leaving this match to chance, Lyra,' Allen thought.

'This isn't good,' Shine thought, 'My fate is in Dusk's hands!'

After 30 seconds left...

"Alright," Dusk announced, "I'll take the chance! Show me that card!"

"Very well..."

Lyra slowly looked at her card, covering her mouth and putting everyone on the edge...

She then raised her eyes to Dusk and Shine, making them shake and shiver...

Allen suddenly started to breathe a little harder, worrying about Lyra's mystery card...

Finally, Lyra slowly turned the card around, showing Allen the card first...

He gasped, holding in his breath as he staggered back...

Seeing that, made Shine and Dusk calm down and grinned...

"We won!"

But when Lyra showed them the card...

It was Infernity Mirage!

"NO!" The girls cried.

Death Gunman pulled out another gun from his holster and aimed it at Shine's disk and...

*BANG!*

Dusk: 0 + Shine: 0

Allen: 1000 + Lyra: 2000

Winners: Allen and Lyra

The boxes near the Academy duelists opened, revealing the keys to the shackles. Lyra sighed.

The timer reset itself to 30 seconds and counting down...

"Now let's get out of here..." She said, unlocking herself from the shackles.

"Wait," Allen shouted, "We can't leave them to die! We got to get them out of here!"

"After they tried to leave us for dead," the Goth protested.

Allen gave her hard look at her eyes and said, "Trust me, we'll regret letting people die if this happens..."

Hearing this, Lyra sighed and held up her duel, "Alright, let's go..." Lyra stated, getting herself ready, "We need to be quick!"

20 seconds...

"I draw," Allen said as he drew, "I activate Creature Swap, making us switch control over one monster we control to the other duelist. I'll send over Freya..."

Knowing his plan, she made her choice, "And I'll give you Infernity Destroyer..."

Both monster vanished from their respective sides and reappeared on the opposite sides...

15 seconds...

"Next, I'll activate my facedown card, Solar Ray to deal 600 points of damage," Allen quickly announced as another light blast struck Lyra as she faced it without flinching.

Allen: 1000 + Lyra: 1400

"Now, Infernity Destroyer, attack Freya!"

The massive fiend roared as he covered himself in dark red flames and tackled the cheerleading fairy into ash. Allen grimaced attack his monster like that, but he needed to focus on the others' lives.

"And since I don't have a hand, Destroyer deals 1600 points of damage..."

The flames then conversed onto Lyra as she pressed a button her duel disk revealing a duelist attacking with his monster that had sliver bladed claws and a mask, only to discover doppelganger of that monster about to strike him from behind.

"And I'll counter with Doppelganger," She declared, "Letting you take the effect damage as well!"

The flames of the Destroyer blasted Lyra while the trap card created another blast that struck Allen, taking the rest of their life points.

Allen: 0 + Lyra: 0

Next, the boxes of the Light Brigade duelists opened with 10 seconds left to spare...

"Now, let's get them outta there," Allen stated as he took off his duel disk and ran all the way over to Dusk's side. Lyra did the same as she ran to Shine's side.

Both unlocked their opponents' shackles from their ankles, freeing them from being sunk into the ocean.

"That was close..." the fairy duelist said, "So what if they're enemies, no one deserves to die..."

Lyra nodded, "I'll agree with that... but we still need to get out of here..."

"Right," Allen agreed, "Let's get Jethro and..."

Suddenly, the timer reached 0, causing the anchor to drop. But there was one problem...

The Infernity duelist gasped, "Allen! Your shackle!"

The Obelisk looked to his ankle to see he was still locked to the anchor, and then suddenly he was jerked into the water.

"HEELLLLPP!"

Lyra watched in horror as he sunk into the water.

"No, I need to get his key," She yelled as she ran over to the other side to grab it.

Only to discover that it was gone!

But then something above her caught her eye. When she looked, she gasped...

Jethro dived head first into water with the key in hand!

---

In the water, Allen was holding his breath if he could.

'Aw man, I knew I should've at least unlocked myself first,' He thought as he going even further into the water, staring up at the surface, 'Oh well, at least Lyra and Jethro should be safe...'

As Allen's lungs began to give out, he saw a shadow coming towards him at a fast break.

'Who's that? Is it Lyra coming to rescue me?'

As the person came into view, Allen's eyes practically bugged out.

'Jethro! He's awake,' Jethro undid Allen's shackle and the two of them swam back up to the surface.

---

At the secluded caverns, Sarina watched as the final two candles went out...

"Shine and Dusk have failed as well..." She stated, "No matter they've done their job of keeping the others at bay..."

"So that means we can have our new friend play with Jaden," Hanabi asked, hopefully.

"Yes," Sarina said as she turned around to a shadowy figure, "I trust you'll give Jaden the fight of his life..."

The shadow made an evil grin...

---

Back on dry land, Allen and Jethro were dripping wet as Lyra checked on Shine and Dusk.

"Thanks Jethro," Allen said to the cowboy Obelisk.

"No problem, partner," Jethro replied, "Glad I was able to swim fast enough to reach ya!"

"Did Lyra get you out?"

"Nope, I got myself out!"

"Huh? How?"

"When that Shine girl knocked me out and sent me face first into the ground, I accidently found a small rock in my mouth," He explained, "And when they had me strapped to the chair, I woke up during the middle of the duel and discovered it. At the end, when I heard your plan of knocking Lyra and yourself out at the same time, I aimed my mouth at the button holding one of my arms and spat at it, allowing me to free myself just in time to save you."

"Glad it happened," the fairy duelist admitted, "I do put everyone else ahead of myself mostly, and this is one of those times."

Lyra then walked up to the boys and handed Jethro his hat.

"Thanks, Lyra," Jethro said as he put it back on his head. She then stared intensely at Allen, making him cringe a bit.

"You alright," the fairy duelist asked.

Suddenly, the Goth grabbed Allen by the collar and yanked him down to her level.

"Don't ever... scare me... like that... again," She said in a low tone, scaring the Obelisk boys, "Got it...?"

Allen couldn't function enough for words, so he just nodded dumbly.

"Good..." Lyra replied pushing him away as she walked off.

Seeing that, Jethro leaned next to the fairy duelist's ear to whisper, "I think she was worried for you, Allen."

"Oh yeah, I see that from the dangerous tone in her voice," Allen whispered back, "But she's just glad I didn't die on her... so am I..."

"I'm glad all of us aren't," Jethro stated as he turned to the docks, "Especially... hmm?"

"What's wrong," Allen asked.

"Those girls are gone," the cowboy pointed out, "And they were knocked out cold!"

"Then how did..."

*CAW!*

The boys looked up to see a vulture flying overhead at the cloudy skies that was now clearing up, showing that the sun was going down.

"That vulture," Allen realized, "It's that girl who locked up me and Lyra with those other girls in that duel."

"Then, she must've done something to them," Jethro added on, "We got to catch up with Lyra and call the others!"

The fairy duelist, "Yeah, there's no telling who else is going to be caught in life-or-death duels!"

The boys started using their Duel Pilots to contact everyone...

The skies may be clear, but the danger's still around the bend...

---

Whew! Another duel done, and thanks to the help of Digidramon, the Infernities get stronger without the use of Tuners and Synchros! For now...

And you'll see how everyone else is doing next chapter, so if anyone had any questions about that, there it is.
