We go back to the White Dorm, Sartorius glaring out at his losing battle...Jazz was gone, Aster out of his control, Seika was thrown to the Red Dorm. He was going to win his war. He would envelop the world in the Light.
He had to prepare his last ditch efforts, we were reaching his desperation points.
Hence why he leaked the information... About D
'I have to get him involved. He's the only one.' He thought
He needed Aster out of his hair for a while
"Lord Sartorius. We've found it." A white dorm student spoke.
"Excellent." He answered, picking up his deck and duel disk.
*elsewhere*
We arrive back at the Coliseum, Joel making the finishing touches on the portal to the Duel Spirit realm. Hoping to bridge the gap and bring the two worlds together.
"This rune needs to be here...Compiling the energy matrixes..." Joel mumbled as he worked on the last part.
'JOEL!' Ashley and Tania called out and terrified him
"GAH! Ladies. Please. This is extremely difficult!" Joel panicked as he looked behind him and saw them.
'I-I'm sorry. But Tania has something important to tell you!' Ashley apologised
'Sartorius is on his way. He's coming within minutes!' Tania answered
Joel's eyes widened and turned to his work...Looking at the research he's done, the knowledge he had en-massed and collected. "He can't have this...Not this. Where's Bastion?" As he closed his book.
"Sent into the island to defeat more duellists." Tania explained
"Meaning it'll be some time." Joel frowned. "Go find him, he needs to be here."
'What? Why?' Tania asked
"Cause he's the only one I can trust to finish this." Joel answered, running his hand on the face of the book he was granted by Professor Banner.
He closed his eyes and sighed
With Tania flying off, Joel held the book in his hands...and began to tear out the pages of the book itself.
'JOEL! What're you doing?' Ashley asked in shock.
"Sartorius can't get this. EVER." He answered with a heavy heart, burning each individual page.
'But this is-!'
"My life's work? Professor Banner's life's work? I know. But I'd start all over again before I let that psycho get his hands on the information." He answered determinedly. "Who knows what damage he could do if he got access to your world?"
'Joel.' Ashley whispered in awe and sadness, seeing her master sacrifice everything for them.
Joel soon got to the pages he worked on, making improvements on the Duel Spirit Gate...and burned them as well, taking the last of it to memory. He hated doing this. To burn a book was a terrible crime in his eyes. The loss of ALL this knowledge, all to be forgotten to all but him.
All that remained was the cover and even THAT had to be burned.
The charred remains sat at his feet, only for the wind to blow it away
Joel fell forward and onto the table where he covered his face, choking back tears. He felt disgusted in himself...but he HAD to do it. "GOD. I'm a monster." He whispered, gripping the sides on his head, feeling like punishing himself.
'No. You're not.' a familiar voice said on the wind 'You are a hero.'
"Professor Banner." Joel whispered as he released his hand and looked around for the voice, hoping to find the origin.
Only he saw nothing
He looked at his deck and duel disk that was on the side...and he knew what to do now. But now? He had to make a call.
*Outside the Coliseum*
Sartorius was walking forward with the rest of his entourage by his side. The portal to the Duel Spirit realm would be his.
He would corrupt the Duel Spirit World. And then those Duel Spirits would corrupt their humans and partners
Syrus, Aster, Alexis, Jaden, Yugi Muto and Seto Kaiba. ALL the world would be under his control!
Bastion was nowhere to be seen, having gone to fight duellists somewhere else on the island.
"Lord Sartorius, the Coliseum is yours for the taking." A White Dorm member spoke, pointing forward at the architecture
"As destiny foretold." he nodded
"HEY!" Joel's voice called out as he walked out of the coliseum. "This is School Property; what're you doing here?"
"I am a student, am I not?" Sartorius mocked
"No, you're..." Joel answered as he saw Sartorius and then stopped mid-sentence. "...What's with your hair?"
...
You could hear the crickets
"What're you blathering about?" Sartorius glared
"Y-Your hair. I. You look like Rapunzel's SJW cousin." Joel answered
If any non-light members were there, they would have burst into laughter
"I. Am NOT. 'Rapunzel's SJW cousin'!" Sartorius snapped
"Well, what's with it? I mean...how do you WASH something that long, it's down to your heels!" Joel added
"I have members of my White Dorm help exfoliate it." Sartorius responded
"...But, most of the white dorm are guys...Are-Are you gay?" Joel asked
CREEEEEEEAK
"WHAAAAT?!" Sartorius roared at Joel.
"I mean it's fine if you are, a lot of people are-" Joel answered honestly.
"NO, I'M NOT GAY!"
"Well, you're not helping your case." Joel responded
"I am bathed by The White Light!" Sartorius snapped
"You know you're not helping your case. Dude, it's okay if you are. My best friend at home, she's basically my sister, is a lesbian. Heck she's dating my ex from collage."
"Wouldyoushutthefuckup?!" Sartorius snapped as he started foaming at the mouth. "I am NOT gay! I am NOT Rapunzel's cousin! I have these loyal students who worship me!"
"...Not really helping the argument here, 'Light Boy'." Joel answered "Heck, you are coming across as a paedophile."
"...I'm going to drown you. I'm going to drown you in a sea of white!" Sartorius glared.
"See? You're doing it again!" Joel pointed "Do you not know how to STOP?!"
"ENOUGH!" Sartorius yelled as a shot of lightning cracked the ground. "You will give me that portal! DUEL!" He demanded
"Okay." Joel nodded
Sartorius
4000
Joel
4000
"And when I win this duel; I will take your portal, take your knowledge and leave you a quivering broken mess!" Sartorius glared
"...You're doing this on purpose; aren't you?" Joel quipped
"GRRR!"
"I'll start things first!" Sartorius drew his first card. "I summon Arcana Force I - The Magician!"
Arcana Force I - The Magician
LIGHT, Level 4, Fairy/Effect
1100 ATK/ 1100 DEF
"Now, its ability activates; if it is right side up, it gains double ATK when a spell card is activated. If it's upside down you gain 500 life points for every spell card activated." Sartorius answered
Joel raised his eye brows and crossed his arms... and said nothing for nearly a minute straight as the card continued to rotate
"Okay, stop!" Joel called out
DONG!
"What? Upside down?" Sartorius glared. "I predicted it would end right side up!"
"...You SURE you're a fortune teller?" Joel asked as he could potentially gain life points here.
"Grr! Enjoy it while you can. I activate 'Cup of Ace' when this card lands right side up I will draw two cards; if it's upside down, YOU draw two cards." Sartorius answered
Joel
4000 - 4500
'Here we go then.' Joel thought as he continued to wait, seeing the card spin.
...
"WHY ARE YOU TAKING SO LONG?!" Sartorius snapped
"Stop." Joel said
DONG!
"Upside down?" Sartorius gasped
"Thank you, very much." Joel drew two cards. 'Two for two.' He thought 'He says he's a fortune teller... but it's all about timing. Maths and timing. I've got this.'
Sartorius grumbled as he laid two cards faced down and ended his turn.
"My turn. Draw!" Joel called out, drawing his first card. "Hmm. Decisions, decisions. First off, I activate the field spell 'Alchemist Laboratory'!" All of Joel's side of the field began to change, shifting from the front of the Coliseum to a medieval lab with archaic runes and symbols, a library of ancient texts, spells and objects. "Next I pay 500 life points to special summon 'Alchemy Beast - Mercury Salmon'!"
Joel
4500 - 5000 - 4500
Alchemy Beast - Mercury Salmon
WATER, Level 4, Fish/Effect
1300 ATK/ 800 DEF
Mercury Salmon
1300 - 1500 ATK
800 - 1000 DEF
"Now, here's how my field spell works; while activated all my 'Alchemy Beasts' and 'Alchemist' cards gain 200 ATK and DEF." Joel called out. "I'll play a card faced down and I'll normal summon this monster in defence mode." Joel continued. "And since your Magician's effect is still going on, I'll play the spell 'Scribing the Runes' this card allows me to play one level 4 or lower 'Alchemist' monster to my side of the field. And I special summon 'Alchemist Assistant'!"
Summoned to Joel's side of the field was Ashley, his Gravedigger Duel Spirit, but being around his this year had transformed her from her former self to this more 'enlightened Elf', wearing a pair of black trousers and white long sleeved ruffled button shirt, her hair tied back and wearing a specialised pair of glasses and holding a book.
Joel
4500 - 5000
Alchemist Assistant
Level 4, LIGHT, Spellcaster/Effect
2100 ATK/ 700 DEF
Alchemist Assistant
2100 - 2300 ATK
700 - 900 DEF
"Now here's my Assistant's effect. While she's on the field with 'Alchemy Beasts' she can't attack, but in exchange, you can only attack her." Joel finished
Ashley adjusted her glasses and smiled
"Now, thanks for the life points Magician, but I'll attack! Mercurial dive!" Joel called out. "And when my Mercury Salmon attacks it gains 300 ATK and DEF during the battle phase."
Mercury Salmon
1500 - 1800 ATK
1000 - 1300 DEF
Arcana Force I - The Magician
1100 ATK
The small fish shot through the air and pierced the Magician's chest
Sartorius
4000 - 3100
Sartorius grunted as his monster was destroyed, having been foiled twice by this worthless teacher.
"I end my turn." Joel finished and ended his turn.
"My turn. I draw!" Sartorius drew his card and looked at it.
He shook in rage, glaring at Joel
'I will rip his free will into SHREDS!' He thought. "I summon 'Arcana Force VII - The Chariot' to the field in attack mode!"
Arcana Force VII - The Chariot
LIGHT, Level 4, Fairy/Effect
1700 ATK/ 1700 DEF
"Now its ability activates. Right side up, I take control of a monster it destroys in battle. Upside down, you gain control of my monster." Sartorius answered. "Now, choose!" and once again Joel went silent
He focussed, seeing the turn of the card...and then. "Now!"
DONG!
"Upside DOWN?" Sartorius snapped
POP!
...
POP!
The Chariot had appeared before Joel's side of the field and was removed from Sartorius' side. It was almost comedic.
"Thanks, needed a sacrifice." Joel answered. "You gonna do anything else?"
"I play one card faced down and that will do it...You bastard." Sartorius answered
"Okay, my turn. Draw!" Joel drew his card. "Okay, I special summon this monster to my side of the field 'Alchemy Beast - Copper Fox'."
Joel
5000 - 4500
Alchemy Beast - Copper Fox
EARTH, Level 3, Beast/Effect
400 ATK/ 1200 DEF
Copper Fox
400 - 600 ATK
1200 - 1400 DEF
"Now I'll activate my face down card 'Vitriol Purification', I remove Copper Fox and Mercury Salmon from my side of the field and gain either their combined ATK or DEF. And I choose the DEF." Joel called out.
Joel's two monsters were removed from the field their combined as dust to heal Joel.
Mercury Salmon + Copper Fox
800 + 1200 = 2000
Joel
4500 + 2000 = 6500
Sartorius was looking at Joel, seeing him increase his life points to continually summon these weak monsters. "I play this card faced down and activate the continuous spell 'Symbol Decode'. This card prevents my 'Alchemist Assistant' from attacking for two turns, but in exchange, I gain one spell card from my deck on my two standby phases, then it goes to the grave."
Sartorius glared, trying to work out what Joel's strategy was
"My turn. I draw!" Sartorius called out. 'Not the worst card...but it WILL give us both a full hand. But it can't be any worse than all this trickery he's pulling off!' "I activate, 'Card of Sanctity' now we both draw until we're holding six cards in our hands!"
Joel frowned, getting a rather small draw pool
'Much better. Now I can take his smug look off his face.' Sartorius thought "I activate Double Summon, allowing me to summon 'Arcana Force VI - The Lovers' and I activate the faced down card, Reversal of Fate. Now all 'Arcana Force' monsters effects are reversed. Right side up is upside down and vice versa."
"... oh..." Joel blinked
"So. Choose. Right side up. Upside down." Sartorius smiled.
'Clever...He's figured out a way around. And without telling me what that monster's ability does, I have to guess.' Joel thought as he saw the card spin.
"Stop."
DONG!
"Upside down." Sartorius smiled. "Which means the 'right side up' effect happens. Meaning I can sacrifice my Arcana Force VI as two tributes!" Sartorius answered with a smile. "And with Double Summon, I can summon THIS! Arcana Force XV -The Fiend!"
Arcana Force XV - The Fiend
LIGHT, Level 7, Fairy/Effect
2500 ATK/ 2500 DEF
"Oh, crap." Joel whispered
"Now, my Arcana Force XV's ability activates. Right side up or upside down. Your fate, Joel." Sartorius answered
Joel looked at Sartorius, then at the card...He HAD to make this the least horrible ability. "Stop!" He called out
DING!
"Right side up. Meaning the effect is 'Upside Down'. Arcana Force XV, ATTACK! And now his selected ability activates, ALL monsters on the field are destroyed." Sartorius answered
BOOM!
Joel's field was empty...but so was Sartorius'. 'Damn it!' Joel thought in anger. 'Have to...stall!'
He looked at his facedowns, he could do this
"I end my turn." Sartorius ended
"My turn. Draw!" Joel drew his card. "Now a card in my graveyard activates, 'Alchemist Elf' each turn when she's in the graveyard I gain 500 life points!"
Joel
6500 - 7000
'Okay, I have to do this. My 'Symbol Decode' is still on the field; but I need something to do.' He thought. 'That's it!'
Sartorius looked at Joel's reaction and pondered what he was doing.
"I activate the spell cards 'Twin Contraries' and 'Price of Knowledge'!" Joel spoke as he activated the two cards.
"What do they do?" Sartorius asked
"Let me show you, my Price of Knowledge is a quickplay spell and since I played it second in my chain it goes first. I give up 1000 life points per card I want to get out of my deck! And my 'Twin Contraries' allows me to special summon any two monsters I want from my deck and ignore their abilities and summoning conditions, but they have to be two different attributes."
Joel
7000 - 3000
Joel soon gained four cards from his deck that he wanted at the cost of 4000 life points. "Now, I special summon these two monsters! Alchemist Doctor and Alchemist Fraud!"
Alchemist Doctor
LIGHT, Level 7, Spellcaster/Effect
2600 ATK/ 1600 DEF
Alchemist Fraud
DARK, Level 7, Spellcaster/Effect
1500 ATK/ 2400 DEF
"Now I sacrifice my two monsters!" Joel called out. "I activate my spell cards 'Heart of Sol' and 'Soul of Luna'! By sending my two monsters as a sacrifice I can special summon these monsters! Come forth, Alchemy Beasts 'Gold Lion' and 'Silver Bat'!"
Joel then summoned his two monsters from his hand and sent his cards to the graveyard.
Alchemy Beast - Gold Lion
Level 8, LIGHT, BEAST, Effect
2900 ATK/ 2300 DEF
Alchemy Beast - Silver Bat
Level 8, DARK, WINGED BEAST, Effect
2300 ATK/ 2900 DEF
Alchemy Beast Gold Lion
2900 – 3100 ATK
2300 – 2500 DEF
Alchemy Beast – Silver Bat
2300 – 2500 ATK
2900 – 3100 DEF
Appearing to Joel's side of the field was a glistening golden lion with a bloody maw and green teeth and fangs; and a silver shining bat with black markings that looked like crescent moons. The lion was in attack mode and the bat was in defence mode.
"How? Were those ritual cards?" Sartorius snapped, seeing the difference in level.
"Actually the requirements are either 'two Alchemy Beast' or 'one Alchemist' monsters." Joel explained "They are like a cross between a fusion summon and a ritual summon in concept but it IS just a normal special summon."
'Damn it...How much will he keep baiting me?' Sartorius glared.
"And I've still got a couple of cards left. And I play two, faced down." Joel answered, ending his turn.
The White Dorm students looked at each other. He HAS their Lord Sartorius on the ropes, no monsters, only a faced down. What was he doing?
What was this guys plan?!
"My turn. Draw!" Sartorius called out, drawing his card for this turn. 'Why is he stalling?' He thought. 'I'll end this here!'
He would summon his most powerful beast!
Destiny was set!
"I activate this!" Sartorius proclaimed activating his card
As Sartorius played his card, a large explosion came from the Coliseum, catching ever White Dorm member off guard, thus interrupting the duel.
Sartorius glared at Joel. "What have you done?"
"Just some bombs. Caving in the floor of the gate. Making it drop into the abyss." Joel explained
"WHAT?" The White Dorm students shouted in fear.
"You-You've destroyed the last gate at this school that was active! You've destroyed your work!" Sartorius glared
"Yeah, but that's the point. YOU won't get it." Joel answered. "And your fortune hooey won't help."
"You. You FOOL!" Sartorius ran over and grabbed Joel by his shirt. "You have NO IDEA what you've COST ME! My desire can't be stopped!"
Joel began to chuckle. "'Desire'? What desire? All you want is someone else's." He said as he crossed his arms "All of you. Your mystic mumbo jumbo isn't going to help."
"But... Don't you want knowledge?" Sartorius said once he calmed himself, hissing out Joel's desire as the light extended from him
Joel heard what Sartorius was saying...trying to entice him.
"The knowledge of the world, the cosmos? If you join us, your desire would be fulfilled." He answered
"Take your magic bullshit... And shove it." Joel said confidently "I do not believe in destiny. In fate. In your CULT. I am a scientist. I believe in facts and pushing for my own desire, I believe in forging your own life with your own skills and knowledge. In self improvement, not in others promising your success."
BOOM!
"The Coliseum's collapsing!" A White Dorm student called out
"THIS is my 'desire'! Sartorius! I'll always get back up! I'll start again! Something YOU will NEVER understand!" Joel proclaimed, extending his arms wide. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
BOOOOM!
The Coliseum was destroyed, the gate was gone, all notes were crushed under ash and rubble
When the dust cleared... A massive monster stood behind Sartorius
"Then you face... THE WORLD!" Sartorius roared
Joel looked on at Sartorius' field, worried what he was going to do. "I activate 'Monster Reborn', bringing back my 'Arcana Force VI - The Lovers', and its ability activates. Choose, Joel!"
"Stop!" Joel called out
DONG!
"Upside down. And due to my 'Reversal of Fate' it means my card is treated for a double sacrifice! I summon 'Arcana Force XXI - The World'!"
Arcana Force XXI - The World
LIGHT, Level 8, Fairy/Effect
3100 ATK/ 3100 DEF
"Now, its ability activates. Choose, right side up or upside down!" Sartorius called out.
Joel gulped a little, seeing this powerful monster before him...he had to make a choice as the card rotated.
The coliseum crushed behind him, his best monster in the field... And the monster Sartorius had being one he didn't know the effect of
"STOP!" Joel called out and stopped the card.
DING!
"Right side up...meaning upside down." Sartorius commented
"What do you mean?" Joel asked in worry, he knew something bad was coming.
"I end my turn." Sartorius answered
"Okay, I-" Joel began but his graveyard began to glow and he got his 'Soul of Luna' card back.
"That was the effect of 'The World', during your next draw phase, you get the top card from your graveyard back to your hand. You were lucky."
"Lucky?" Joel frowned "Well it's time for my Lion to devour a planet!"
"Gold Lion, ATTACK!" Joel called out, pointing to The World.
His monster roared and charged forwards with its 3100 ATK
'Fool.' Sartorius thought. "Reveal faced down." And raised his card. "Shatter Mirror Force."
Joel's eyes widened as his lions fire shot back at both of his monsters, banishing them while two random cards from Sartorius' deck where banished as cost
Joel's monsters were removed from the field, now exposed to anything that Sartorius threw at him.
"I...I end my turn." Joel answered, accepting his fate.
"My turn. DRAW! Arcana Force XXI, ATTACK! WIPE HIM OUT!" Sartorius pointed at Joel. "SHOW HIM THE LIGHT!"
A powerful beam of light shot at Joel, hitting him with more than enough points to wipe him out.
Arcana Force XXI -The World
3100
Joel
3000 - 0
Sartorius wins!
Joel was flung back and landed on the ground, his back became dirty from the dust and dirt on the floor, leaving him conscious but hurt.
The White Dorm clapped and cheered at the victory
Sartorius stood proud...but honestly, Joel was playing HIM, more than the other way around. How he made the choice those times...but no matter. He had him now. He'd get another portal to the Duel Spirit Realm. He had won this fight AND the means to an end.
"Will you weirdos back off? I'm not putting that on." Joel snapped, shocking everyone, and throwing the white blazer handed to him back in their faces
"That-that's not possible." Sartorius gasped. They ALWAYS worked!
Joel grunted as he got back to his feet and brushed himself off.
"It is. Cause...I HAVE my desires to strive for." Joel explained and began to walk away. "I knew what I need to achive my dream and how to achive it. I don't need to devote myself to some all seeing power to give it to me. If it's a dream you care about you should be willing to fight for it!"
Sartorius flinched at that, he could feel Joel's defiance and the truth in his words.
Joel walked away with a limp, not even looking at any of them
He soon arrived at the main building, collapsing at the front gates in exhaustion. His plan had worked. And Sartorius didn't know about Bastion being Jaden's spy.
Victory for the good guys
