Jewels: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh
"Look Jewels," Rachel said.
I looked up and saw that Seto had activated the trap card Negate Attack, stopping the Valkyrie's attack.
"That's awesome!" Yugi said, "Zigfried's turn is over, so his three Valkyries go back to his deck."
"Oh thank God," I said.
"What are you waiting for? Call back your ponies," Seto said to Zigfried.
Zigfried played a magic card saying that it gives his Valkyries a second performance. "Valkyrie Zweite, attack," Zigfried said.
"That's cheating!" Tèa said.
"Yeah!" Mokuba said, "Those Valkyries should have gone back to his deck."
"I am so screwed," I said.
"What are you doing?" Seto asked Zigfried.
"My magic card, Mischief of the Time Goddess allows me to skip your turn and pick up where I last left off," Zigfried replied.
"I am so screwed," I sobbed.
Seto activated the trap card Magical Trick Mirror, which activates a magic card from Zigfried's graveyard. He chose Mischief of the Time Goddess, skipping Zigfried's turn.
"Kaiba just bought himself a second chance," Joey said, "He better not mess up."
"If he keeps giving me a heart attack, I might as well not watch," I said.
"If you thought you could win this in one turn…you don't know what you're up against," Seto said to Zigfried, "I've come a long way since we were kids." He summoned Z-Metal Tank (1300 DEF) then summoned Clone Dragon, which becomes a duplicate of the monster he just played, then he ended his turn.
"What a duel!" Leon said, "The action hasn't stopped since Kaiba made his first move."
"Unfortunately, most of the action has been at Kaiba's expense," Tristan said.
"It's going to get worse," Yugi said, "Zigfried's Valkyries are still on the field."
"Are you going to do anything but stall?" Zigfried asked, "We both know you're going to lose, so why not get it over with? That way I can still make my eight o'clock massage."
"You nauseate me," Seto said bluntly, "Make your move."
Zigfried played the magic card, Valkyrie's Embrace, then switches Valkyrie Dritte to defense mode, then one of Seto's Z-Metal Tanks disappeared. "After I played my magic card, switching one of my Valkyries to defense removes one of your monsters from play," Zigfried explained, "Then Valkyrie Dritte's attack goes up by another 100 points, to 1200." He ordered Valkyrie Erste to attack Seto's Clone Dragon, destroying it, then used Valkyrie Zweite to attack Seto directly causing him to lose 1600 life points, bringing him down to 2400.
"This is bad," Yugi said.
"Kaiba almost lost half his life points," Rebecca added.
"There's more where that came from," Joey added.
"Shut up," I said.
Seto brushed off his sleeve and drew a card. "Is that all?" Seto asked.
"You're not fooling anyone Kaiba," Zigfried said, "The whole world can sense your fear."
"What do you think I'm afraid of?" Seto asked, "Your ferocious galloping Girl Scouts?" He plays Pitch-Dark Dragon (600 DEF), the sets one card face down and ends his turn.
Zigfried switches Valkyrie Dritte to attack mode, then attacks Pitch-Dark Dragon with Valkyrie Zweite destroying it.
"Every time Kaiba summons a monster, it gets crushed!" Tristan said.
"Not helping!" I said.
"Hold on guys, don't lose hope yet," Yugi said.
Seto activated his trap card Flat Level 4. Now that his dragon is gone, they can each choose a 4-star monster from their decks and summon it to the field. Kaiba chooses Y-Dragon Head (1600 DEF).
Zigfried chooses another Valkyrie Dritte, which gets the 200-point power boost from Seto's two monsters that have been removed from play, making her attack 1200, then he ended his turn.
Seto drew, then played Pot of Greed, allowing him to draw two more cards, then he played the magic card Dimension Fusion, paying 2000 life points to bring back his X-Head Cannon and Z-Metal Tank that were removed from play.
"Now he'll be able to combine then together," Yugi said.
"But he paid 2000 life points," Tèa said.
"It wasn't worth it," Tristan added.
"No it wasn't," I agreed.
Seto played the magic card, Soul Absorption, giving him an extra 500 life points each time a card is removed from play. Then he removes X-Head Cannon, Y-Dragon Head, and Z-Metal Tank from play, in order to summon XYZ-Dragon Cannon (2800 ATK), and gaining 1500 points in the bargain to bring his score back up to 1900.
"I'm impressed," Duke said, "Not only did Kaiba summon a really powerful monster, but her was able to regain 1500 life points."
"This could be just the break he needs," Grandpa Moto said.
"I sure hope so," Yugi said.
"So do I," I agreed.
"It's time to get rid of your little friend," Seto said. He attacked with XYZ-Dragon Cannon, destroying one of the Valkyrie Drittes, and taking Zigfried's life points down to 2500.
"Nice move," Tèa said, "Kaiba totally caught Zigfried off guard."
"That's my bro!" Mokuba cheered.
"Finally, a small light at the end of the tunnel," I said.
Zigfried drew, and then played the magic card, Nibelung's Treasure.
"I recognize that card," Tristan said, "That's the card that Zigfried use to do Joey in."
"Yeah, and it's not a found memory," Joey added.
"Light at the end of the tunnel fading," I said.
"It'll be okay Jewels," Rachel said.
Nibelung's Ring appeared on Seto's side of the field, the Ring forming around XYZ-Dragon Cannon. The magic card also allows Zigfried to draw five new cards, and the Ring stops XYZ-Dragon Cannon from attacking.
"It gets worse from here," Joey said, "Kaiba will have to draw two cards, and if one of them is a monster, it will be removed from play."
"Next, I'll sacrifice Valkyrie Dritte to summon the instrument of your destruction," Zigfried said as a chariot drawn by two horses came pounding out of the sky, "It's called Fortune Chariot, and it's come to cart you to oblivion!" Valkyrie Zweite leapt from her horse into the chariot, which allows her to attack Seto directly, with half her attack points, causing him to lose 800 life points, taking him down to 1100.
"Hang in there Kaiba!" Yugi yelled.
But Zigfried wasn't done yet; he played Mystical Space Typhoon, destroying Seto's Soul Absorption, then set a card face down and ended his turn.
"Without your Soul Absorption magic card, you can no longer replenish your life point, and with my Fortune Chariot in play I can continue to chip away at your life points," Zigfried said, "Now who's one step ahead, Herr Kaiba?" Zigfried looked around the stadium. "Embarrassing you in front of millions of people is more fun than I imagined!" he said.
The effect of Nibelung's Ring forces Kaiba to draw two cards, and if there are any monsters, they are immediately destroyed.
"Do you think that scares me?" Seto asked as he drew the two cards which could possible get destroyed, "Looks like you're out of luck, no monsters." He set one card down.
"Since there's nothing else you can do, I assume that you end your turn," Zigfried said, "After all, Nibelung's Ring has rendered the XYZ-Dragon Cannon useless."
"This doesn't look good," Mokuba said.
"I agree Mokuba," I said.
"You know what comes next Kaiba," Zigfried said after drawing a card. He ordered Valkyrie Zweite to use Fortune Chariot to attack Seto directly. With her attack cut in half to 800, Valkyrie Zweite attacks, but thankfully Seto activates his trap card, Attack Guidance Armor, redirecting her attack to another of Zigfried's monsters. Then Zigfried activates his own trap card, Wotan's Judgment, to save his Valkyrie. By switching one magic card in his hand with the top card in his deck, he immediately ends his battle phase. "Thank you," Zigfried said, "Now I have assembled three of my most powerful cards." He played the magic cards, Goddess Urd's Verdict, Goddess Verdande's Guidance, and Goddess Skuld's Oracle.
"Those dames are nothing but bad new," Joey said.
"Zigfried played them last time and nearly destroyed Joey's deck," Yugi said.
Hakoda barked and started pulling at something in my bag.
"What is it boy?" I asked reaching down and pulling out what he was yanking on. I chuckled when I saw what he had been pulling on; his little Blue-Eyes costume. "You want to help cheer him on don't you?" I asked.
Hakoda barked and shook his little tail.
I put the costume on him and then set him in my lap.
"Oh my God! That is adorable!" Rachel said pulling out her phone and taking a picture of him.
I chuckled. "He wants to help cheer Seto on I guess," I said.
"Your strategy might have worked on a lame dork like Wheeler, but I'm in a different league," Seto said to Zigfried.
"Let's let my Goddesses be the judge of that," Zigfried said. He activated Goddess Skuld's effect, making Setp show him the top three cards on his deck. Three Blue-Eyes White Dragons are revealed. "That's impossible!" Zigfried said gasping.
"By the look on your face, I'm guessing my destiny looks pretty good," Seto said before putting the cards back on the top of his deck.
"You were doomed the moment you decided to duel me," Zigfried said before he called upon the Goddess Verdande, allowing him to guess Seto's top card. He guesses it's a monster.
Seto drew the Blue-Eyes White Dragon. "How did you ever guess?" he asked sarcastically.
"Just put it on the field in defense mode," Zigfried said.
Seto put the Blue-Eyes on the field in defense mode and when it showed up Hakoda started barking excitedly.
"Shut that mutt up!" Zigfried snapped.
I gasped and Rachel covered Hakoda's ears.
"How dare you!" we said.
"Easy," he said, "I do not like the barking on annoying little dogs!" He uses Goddess Urd's effect to let him remove the Blue-Eyes from play by correctly predicting it's a Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
Hakoda growled at Zigfried when the Blue-Eyes disappeared.
Seto smirked. "Funny, I don't like you, Jewels doesn't like you, the geek squad doesn't like you, and even the dog doesn't like, "Seto said, "Tell Zigfried, do you make babies cry when you're near them too?"
"You're making jokes to cover up the fact that I just destroyed your favorite monster," Zigfried said, "Cute."
Seto drew his two cards, and one of the Blue-Eyes White Dragons is discarded.
"I assume since you can't attack, you'll be ending your turn," Zigfried stated.
"You assume wrong," Seto said before he played Monster Reborn, bringing back his Blue-Eyes White Dragon from the graveyard.
"That's what I'm talking about!" Mokuba cheered.
"In your face you pink haired freak!" Joey yelled.
"Nobody comes between me and my Blue-Eyes!" Seto said before he ordered Blue-Eyes to attack Valkyrie Zweite, but only the Fortune Chariot was destroyed.
"By giving up my Fortune Chariot, I've saved her," Zigfried said, "But I still lose 1400 life points."
"It's the same old story, I rise to the top, and you get lost in my shadow," Seto said.
"We'll see," Zigfried said. He drew, then used his Goddesses to look at Kaiba's top three cards (Shrink, Cave Dragon, and Luster Dragon #2), and remove Luster Dragon #2 from play. Next, he played the magic card, Gryphon's Feather Duster, to destroy all the magic and trap cards on his side of the field and increase his life points by 500 for each card destroyed. His three Goddesses disappear, and he gains 1500 life points, bringing him back up to 2600.
"He just got back everything Blue-Eyes took away," Mokuba said.
I sighed. "I really and not liking this duel," I said.
Zigfried left off his turn by sacrificing Valkyrie Zweite to summon Valkyrie Brunhilde (2000 DEF).
Seto drew his next two cards. Nibelung's Ring forces him to discard Cave Dragon. "I didn't need that card anyway," he said before attack Valkyrie Brunhilde, but by reducing her defense points by 1000, she is not destroyed in battle.
"Another turn wasted," Zigfried said.
"Eventually your girlfriend is going to run out of life points, and when she does…my dragon will be waiting,"
Jewels: I hope you liked the chapter! It took a while to get out so I wrote a long one so I really hope that you enjoyed it :D
