Narrative POV
Jaden
and Jesse: 8000
Aura Bestias: 8000
"I shall make the first move," Yellow said, drawing a card from his deck. He placed the card onto his duel disk. "And I shall begin by summoning my La Jinn The Mystical Genie of the Lamp." A golden lamp appeared on the field before him. A green smoke came out of the spout, forming into a well-muscled, green genie. He had golden bands around his waist, wrists, biceps, and neck.
Attack:
1800
Defense: 1000
Yellow pulled another card out of his hand and slid it into the duel disk. "I lay one card face down and end my turn." A card appeared on the field behind La Jinn.
Jesse drew a card from his deck. "Then I'll go." He glanced at his hand and pulled out a card, placing it on his duel disk. "I'll start out by summoning my buddy Emerald Turtle to the field in attack mode." Emerald Turtle appeared on the field, large emerald crystals jutting from his shell.
Attack:
800
Defense: 2000
"I'll also end my turn by placing one card face down." He slid a card into his duel disk and it appeared behind Emerald Turtle. Red smirked and drew a card from his deck.
"Then I shall go. I begin by summoning Giant Orc to the field in attack mode." He placed a card onto the field and a large, teal-colored thing appeared. It held a large bone in its hand and had two large, pointed canines jutting up from its lower jaw. A brown kind of skirt was around its waist, attached to a matching belt.
Attack:
2200
Defense: 0
"Then I shall attack your Emerald Turtle!" Giant Orc roared and ran toward Emerald Turtle, raising its bone above its head. When it reached Emerald Turtle, it swung its arm down and destroyed him, sending particles flying back at Jesse.
"I activate my trap card, Gem Set!" He extended his arm, flipping his face down card up. "This card allows me to select a 'Crystal Beast' card from my deck and place it in my magic and trap card zones." He pulled his deck out the duel disk and fanned it. Selecting a monster, he placed it into the zone. A large ruby appeared on the field, hovering above the ground slightly.
"Does not matter, you still receive damage," Red said. Jesse smirked.
"You'd think that, wouldn't you? But Gem Set also negates all damage I would have received. Plus, now I can place Emerald Turtle in my magic and trap card zones as well." He slid Emerald Turtle into the zone and a large emerald appeared floating next to the ruby. Red glared at Jesse, but continued his turn.
"Giant Orc's special effect forces me to change its battle position from attack to defense." Giant Orc slid down to one knee, crossing its arms across its chest. "I shall end my turn." Jaden drew a card from his deck.
"My turn! I summon Neo Spacian Black Panther to the field in attack mode." He placed a card on the field and a black panther appeared on the field wearing a cape.
Attack:
1000
Defense: 500
"Now I activate his special effect. This allows him to gain the name and effect of one monster, and I choose your Giant Orc. Now, Giant Orc attack Giant Orc." Black Panther, now called Giant Orc, attacked the real Giant Orc. With a cry, the real one disintegrated. Black Panther landed gracefully back in front of Jaden. "Now, thanks to his special effect, I have to place him in defense mode." He spun his card and Blank Panther leaned his head lower and spread his feet farther apart. He pulled another card out of his hand and slid it into the duel disk. "I'll finish by placing one card face down." A card appeared on the field behind Black Panther.
Jaden and
Jesse: 8000
Aura Bestias: 8000
"Now it is my turn." Yellow drew a card from his deck. He turned his body and extended his arm. "I'll begin by activating my face down, Jar of Greed. This allows me to draw another card from my deck." The card flipped up and a large pot with a greedy smile appeared on the field. When he drew his new card, the pot burst and scattered particles everywhere. He pulled a card out of his hand and placed it on the field. "Now I shall summon my Witch's Apprentice to the field in attack mode." A woman appeared on the field next to La Jinn. She was hovering on a broomstick, long, red hair framing her face. She had large, white wings and was wearing a dark blue hat and robe.
Attack:
550
Defense: 500
"My witch might not look that powerful, but her special effect makes up for her uselessness in attack. She gives all dark-type monsters on the field an extra 500 attack points." He smirked evilly. "So now it pays to be of the dark attribute." Both the witch's and La Jinn's attack points rose.
La
Jinn
Attack:
1800 – 2200
Witch's
Apprentice
Attack:
550 – 950
He pulled a card out of his hand and held his duel disk up vertically. The field card zone slot shot out of the disk. "But I'm not done just yet. I now activate the field-spell, Mystic Plasma Zone. This card increases the attack of all Dark type monsters by another 500 points, but decreases their defense by 400."
"Great," Jaden muttered. Black Panther was a Dark-Type monster. The bonuses in attack were useless to him. Now its defense was lowered to,
Defense: 500 – 100
A large, purple, swirling vortex appeared above the duelers. Lightning shot out of it and landed just before every dark-type monster.
La
Jinn
Attack:
2200 – 2700
Witch's
Apprentice
Attack:
950 – 1450
"Now I'll attack you're Panther with my witch! Destroy him!" The witch flew higher in the air, crying out loudly as she came skyrocketing down toward Black Panther.
"Not so fast! I activate my facedown, A Hero Emerges! This card forces you to select a card from my hand. If it turns out to be a monster, then I get to special summon it," Jaden yelled. His facedown flew up. Yellow ground his teeth together and then extended his sick finger toward Jaden's hand.
"Fine. I select the one on the far left." Jaden looked down and smiled. He pulled it out of his hand and placed it on the duel disk.
"Very nice selection. Now I get to special summon my buddy, Elemental Hero Neos!" A well-muscled monster appeared on Jaden's field, just next to Black Panther. Yellow's face twisted up in annoyance before a smirk took place on. Neos suddenly began to glow, his attack points dropping.
Attack: 2500 –
2100
Defense: 2000
Jaden gasped and looked at Yellow. "What happened to my Neos!?" he demanded. Yellow laughed.
"My Witch's Apprentice lowers the attack of all light-type monsters by 400 points, and I'm afraid that your big, bad hero is a light monster," he explained. Jaden hissed but didn't say another word. Yellow glanced back at his hand. He smirked and pulled one card out, sliding it into the duel disk. "No matter. I activate the magic card, Fissure. This card allows me to destroy the weakest monster on your side of the field. Say bye-bye kitty-kitty."
"No!" Jaden cried as a hand shot up out of the ground, wrapping firmly around Black Panther's leg. He tried fruitlessly to pull away. More hands shot up and then pulled him down. He gave out a cry before disappearing. Jaden glared at Yellow, who merely smirked.
"Now I lay one card face down and end my turn." A card appeared on the field behind Witch's Apprentice.
Jesse drew a card from his deck. He glanced at it and slid it into his hand. "I'll start off by activating the special effect of my Ruby Carbuncle. This allows me to special summon all the Crystal Beasts that are in my magic and trap card zones to the field." The large ruby and emerald began to glow and then split in multiple spots until they completely shattered. Ruby Carbuncle, a blue catlike creature with four ears and a red sphere on the end of her tail, and Emerald Turtle reappeared on the field. Both were in defense mode.
Ruby
Attack:
300 - 0
Defense: 300
Emerald
Turtle
Attack:
800
Defense: 2000
"But because your Ruby is a light-type monster, she loses 400 attack points thanks to my witch," Yellow said. Jesse glared at him but continued with his turn. He pulled a card out of his hand and placed it on the field.
"Now I summon my Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger to the field in attack mode." A large white tiger with black stripes and a large horn on its head appeared on the field next to Emerald Turtle.
Attack:
1600
Defense: 1000
"Now, Topaz, attack him directly!" He yelled as he pointed toward Red. Topaz roared and lunged at him, biting hard down on his throat. Red cried out, mainly in annoyance. Topaz landed back into her place on Jesse's field. Red growled as he rubbed his throat.
Jaden
and Jesse: 8000
Aura Bestias: 6400
"I'll end my turn." Red growled and drew a card from his deck.
"You are going to regret doing that, Rainbow Knight." Jesse stared at him as he reached up to touch the pendent around his neck.
"Not as much as you are," he whispered.
xXx
"Dana, how long do you think Alexis and Mel have?" Syrus asked as he looked away from the duel toward her. She bit her lip and shook her head.
"I can't say. I have never seen it done. Could be a couple hours, days, maybe months."
"Or we could already be too late," Kai said. Everyone gasped as Dana shot him a dirty look and elbowed him in the ribs. He just looked right back at her, unfazed. "I shall not lie to them. You were thinking the exact same thing, Empress, and you know it." Her face fell, fear rising to the surface.
"They'll be fine, they're in the absolute best hands," Yugi said confidently. Everyone looked at him and then at Jaden and Jesse. They nodded, realizing that he was right.
"Yes, they are. As long as they haven't already been turned that is," Kai said.
"KAI!"
xXx
Alexis shuddered and looked around. She was surrounded by darkness and the smell of death was in the air. Goosebumps had risen on her arms long ago and still remained. It felt as if the temperature just continued to plummet. She couldn't see anything in the darkness except for her only companion.
"Mel, where are we?" Mel looked over at her. She had pulled herself into an upright ball, trying to keep her body heat within her. Tears were streaming down her face.
"I don't know." Alexis shuddered a sigh.
"Do you think they'll find us?" Mel looked away from her. She clutched the front of her uniform blouse, where her pendent should be, but it isn't.
"They will." She turned to look at Alexis, confidence shining brightly in her shimmering eyes. "I know they will."
xXx
Red stared at his hand for a moment before drawing a card from it and placing it onto his empty field.
"I shall begin my turn by summoning out Red-Moon Baby to the field in attack mode." A small, purple, baby-like creature appeared on the field. It had pointed hair, fangs coming from its upper lip, and a large black cape.
Attack: 700 –
1600
Defense: 1000 – 600
"Then I shall activate the equip spell, Premature Burial! This card allows me to select one monster from my graveyard and special summon it back to the field, and I choose my Giant Orc." He slid a card into his duel disk. Suddenly, Giant Orc appeared back onto the field, dark, red hand wrapped around his ankle.
Attack: 2200 –
3100
Defense: 0
"Now I'll attack your precious Ruby with Red-Moon Baby! Go!" Red-Moon Baby hissed loudly and lunged at Ruby, biting down hard on her neck. She cried out loudly as she burst into particles. Jesse gasped and covered his face, protecting it from the particles.
"RUBY!" He glared at Red, who smirked. Red-Moon Baby landed back on the field.
"If you think I'm done, then you are mistaken! I now attack your Topaz Tiger with my Orc! Go, destroy him!" Giant Orc roared as he threw his bone at Topaz, causing him to burst and disappear. Jesse growled as he disappeared.
Jaden and
Jesse: 6500
Aura Bestias: 6400
Giant Orc slid down onto a knee, changing to defense mode.
"Too bad that both of them will come back as Crystals!" A topaz crystal appeared on the field, hovering slightly, but there was not a Ruby. He looked around confused. "Where is Ruby?" Red snickered.
"Your Ruby shan't be returning to your field as a crystal, but to mine." Jesse glared at him.
"What do you mean?" As if to answer his question, Ruby appeared on Red's field, next to Red-Moon Baby. She raised her head to reveal blood-red eyes. Jesse gasped and glared heatedly at Red. "What did you do to her?" Red laughed.
"Red-Moon Baby turns every monster he destroys into an unwilling minion. Now your precious Ruby is on my side." Jesse didn't look pleased, which pleased Red greatly. "If you think I'm done tormenting you, then you are greatly mistaken. Now I activate the spell card, Hinotama! This card deals you a direct damage of 500 points!" Jaden and Jesse looked up to see large balls of fire raining down on them. (1)
They held their arms above their heads as they were hit, every hit taking more life points with them.
Jaden and
Jesse: 6000
Aura Bestias: 6400
"That's enough for now. I'll end my turn by laying one card face down." A card appeared on the field behind Red-Moon Baby. Jaden drew a card from his deck.
"Then I'll start off by summoning Elemental Hero Avian to the field in attack mode." He placed a card on the field. Avian, a well muscled green man with wings and claws, appeared on the field next to Neos.
"Then I shall activate my trap card, Trap Hole! This card sends your Hero to the graveyard." Red whipped up his face down. Jaden ground his teeth together as a large hole appeared beneath Avian, sucking him in and out of the field. He glanced at his hand, drawing a card out and sliding it into his duel disk.
"I activate Graceful Charity. Now I can draw three cards from my deck, but I have to discard two others." He drew three more cards from the deck, taking two from his hand a sliding them into his graveyard. He looked up at Neos. "Neos, destroy Witch's Apprentice!" Neos jumped up into the air and shot down, his arms extended in front of him, his hands balled into fists. He flew right threw the Witch, destroying her. She cried out as she disappeared. Yellow growled, annoyed. Now all Dark and Light type monsters regained their attacks.

Jaden smiled, happy to see his Hero back to full strength. He pulled a card out of his hand and slid it into his duel disk; a card appeared face down on the field.
"I'll lay one card face down and end my turn."
Jaden and
Jesse: 6000
Aura Bestias: 6400
Yellow drew a card. He didn't even glance at it as he placed it in his hand. He extended his hand and flipped his face down, face up.
"I'll activate my face down, Just Desserts." Jaden and Jesse glanced at each other. Yellow and Red smirked. "Now you lose 1000 life points, 500 for every monster on your field." A ghostly hand shot out and gripped Jaden's shoulder. He cried out as he felt his life points drop. The hand let go of him and then grabbed Jesse, causing him to do the same. Both boys fell down onto one knee, gripping their shoulders.
Jaden and
Jesse: 5000
Aura Bestias: 6400
"Hurts, doesn't it?" he said snidely. Jaden and Jesse both glared at him as they stood up. He just chuckled darkly as he slid a card into his duel disk. "I activate the magic card, Monster Reborn. This allows me to special summon my friend, Witch's Apprentice."
"Damn," the boys whispered. The witch flew from the sky, reappearing on the field. Yellow gave the two Knights a toothy smile. His teeth were yellow, nasty, and crooked.
"Don't fret. She won't be sticking around for long. I tribute her, my La Jinn, and my Zure, Knight of the Dark World from my hand in order to summon…THE WICKED DREADROOT!" Everyone gasped as the two monsters on the field disappeared. In their place appeared a large creature. It was muscled with toned teal skin. It had skeleton-like armor and bony wings.
Attack:
4000 - 4400
Defense: 4000 - 3600
"Oh crap," Jaden and Jesse both said at the same time.
"And it gets worse my enemies. Wicked Dreadroot's special effect halves the attack and defense points of all monsters on the field, except for himself." They gasped as Dreadroot raised a hand in the air, slashing down. The wind blew forward, hitting all the monsters on the field.

Attack:

Defense: 300 - 150
"I shall end my turn by placing one card face down." A card appeared on the field. Jesse took a deep breath and drew a card from his deck.
"I summon my Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat to the field in attack mode." He placed a card on the field. A large pink cat with a golden chest plate that had a amethyst crystal in it appeared on the field next to Emerald Turtle.
Attack: 1200 –
600
Defense: 400 – 200
"Now I'll attack you-" he points at Red "-with her special ability. If I cut her attack points in half, she can attack your life points directly." Red seemed unfazed by this ability. "Attack him now, Amethyst!" She hissed and lunged at Red, her attack points halving.
Attack: 600 – 300
"Not so fast there! I will protect my brother with my face down, Sakuretsu Armor! Now your kitty is destroyed!" Yellow yelled as he flipped his card. A metal suit of armor flew out from the card and crashed into Amethyst, destroying her. Jesse ground his teeth together as an amethyst crystal appeared in his magic and trap card zones. Now there were two.
"I end my turn," he said. Red smiled as he drew a card.
"Then I shall go." He looked at the card he drew and slid into his duel disk. "I activate the spell card, Card Destruction. This card forces all of us to discard our entire hand and draw the same number of cards." Everyone discarded their hands and drew new cards. Red seemed pleased with his new hand. He pulled a card out of his hand and then placed it onto the field. "Now I tribute all of my monsters on the field, being Giant Orc, Red-Moon Baby, and your Ruby Carbuncle, in order to summon THE WICKED AVATAR!" All the monsters disappeared and in their place, a large, black ball appeared.
Attack:
?
Defense: ?
A ruby crystal appeared in Jesse's magic and trap card zone. Now he had three.
"My Wicked Avatar has multiple special effects. The first being that you cannot activate a magic or trap card until the end of your second turn." Red smirked when Jaden and Jesse scowled at him. "The second one being that it gains the attack and defense points 100 points more than the most powerful monster on the field, aside from itself. That means it gains 100 points more than my brothers Wicked Dreadroot."
Attack:
4500
Defense: 3700
"But his attack and defense points are cut in half by his special effect," Jaden said. Red smirked evilly.
"No, it's not. Because, do to both of their effects, it would be a never ending chain. So Wicked Avatar is unaffected by Wicked Dreadroot's effect.(2)." Aura Bestias laughed as Jaden and Jesse looked at each other.
xXx
"Oh no! Jesse and Jaden are in big trouble now!" Hassleberry gasped. Everyone nodded.
"They'll figure something out, they always do," Blair said. Everyone looked at each other, uncertainty on their faces.
xXx
"I'll end my turn there." Red lowered his arm, a satisfied smile on his face. Jaden took a deep breath and drew. He looked at it and placed the card on the field.
"I summon my Elemental Hero Clayman to the field in defense mode." A large, brown, stone monster appeared on the field, his arms folded across his massive chest.
Attack: 800 –
400
Defense: 2000 – 1000
"I'll also change Neos to defense mode and end my turn." He spun Neos' card and he slid down onto one knee, mimicking Clayman's pose. Yellow smiled as he drew.
"There isn't much more you can do, is there?" He slid a card into his duel disk. "Especially once I activate my spell card, Lightning Vortex. Once I discard one card from my hand, all of your monsters are destroyed!" Jaden and Jesse both gasped as lightning shot out of the sky, hitting every one of their monsters and destroying them. An emerald appeared in Jesse's magic and trap card zone, creating four. Yellow smirked evilly. "How I would love to end this duel now, but I just would love to increase your torture further. So I'll end my turn there."
Jesse took a deep breath and drew. He glanced up at his field, seeing all four of his crystals. He smiled and placed a card in the last zone.
"I'll lay one card face down and end my turn."
xXx
"What!? He's just a sitting duck now!" Adrian yelled.
"Maybe it's all part of his plan," Michael said. Everyone looked at him before looking back at Jesse.
xXx
"Such a foolish move," Red said, drawing a card. He placed it in his hand without looking at it. "Now, Wicked Avatar, attack the Rainbow Knight directly!" Wicked Avatar shot a dark, black beam out from within its core and hit Jesse in the chest. He cried out as he fell down to both knees, clutching his chest.
Jaden and
Jesse: 500
Aura Bestia: 6400
"I'll end there." Jesse took a deep breath and stood up, shaking slightly. Jaden looked over at him.
"Are you okay, Jess?" he asked. The cringing boy nodded. He nodded slightly, not looking convinced. He drew a card and looked at it. He slid it into his duel disk. "It's been two turns since Wicked Avatar was summoned, so now I can activate my magic card, Calling of the Duel Knights B!" Aura Bestias gasped.
"You can't activate that without Calling of the Duel Knights A," Yellow said. Red nodded. Jesse smirked and held his arm out, revealing the face down card he played last turn.
It was Calling of the Duel Knights A, a quick play spell card.
"Now that both of them are on the field, I can activate their power. To start off I have remove Elemental Heroes Avian, Burstinatrix, Bubbleman, and Clayman from my graveyard and from play." Four cards slid out of his graveyard. He picked them up and slid them into his deck box.
"And I have to remove four Crystal's from my magic and trap card zones from play," Jesse said. He pulled the four monsters, Ruby Carbuncle, Emerald Turtle, Topaz Tiger, and Amethyst Cat, from his duel disk and placed them in his duel box. "As well as Rainbow Dragon, who is in my graveyard." Rainbow Dragon slid out of his duel disk and he placed it into his deck box.
"And now that that is out of the way, we can summon...," Jaden began, breaking off at the end. He smiled at Jesse, who smiled back at him. They looked at Aura Bestias.
"THE DUEL KNIGHTS!" Lightning shot from the sky and one bolt landing in front of Jaden and in front of Jesse. Standing where the lighting was were two monsters. The one in front of Jaden had bright red armor. A sword was tied to his waist and a shield attached to his arm. He wore a helmet that was like a knight's but there was no face guard. When he looked up at Aura Bestias, he looked exactly like Jaden.
The monster in front of Jesse was dressed just like the monster Jaden now possessed. But this monster had dark blue armor. On its shield was a rainbow of colors, all in crystal form. Both monsters possessed black capes. When Jesse's monster looked up, he looked exactly like Jesse.
"Meet The Elemental Knight," Jaden said, indicating to his monster.
"And The Rainbow Knight," Jesse said, pointing to his monster. Aura Bestia stared at the knights in horror.
