Chapter 37: End of the World

The beam of light deposited Utena's D-Wheel at the end of a long road spiraling up the pointed tip of Seibal. With Anthy still riding behind her, Utena drove the motorcycle up this long course to Seibal's top. As Utena drove, she couldn't help but look at the construction of the floating fortress. She had seen Seibal from below on the dueling track many times, but this was her first time seeing it up close. The base of the fortress truly was made of ruined buildings, just like it looked from beneath, yet Utena could now see that though these buildings were ancient they were somehow at the same time very advanced.

After a drive of about four or five minutes, Utena and Anthy made it to the top, arriving in the remains of an ancient city. Utena couldn't help but find the sight of the dead metropolis to be very breathtaking. Looking at those abandoned buildings, all of which were in nearly perfect condition, Utena felt as though she had stepped back through time to some sort of fairytale kingdom.

"We must drive to the central palace of Seibal," Anthy told Utena, pointing to a tall ziggurat in the distance. "End of the World will be waiting for you there."

"Anthy…how much do you know about this place?" Utena asked.

Anthy simply looked down towards the road as she put her arms back around Utena. "You must hurry. It would not be proper to keep End of the World waiting."

Utena decided to drop the matter and drove her D-Wheel down what she determined to be the city's main road. It wasn't very long before the two arrived at the large pointed temple-like building that Anthy had described as the central palace. As soon as they reached the gate, Anthy had Utena pull over. The purple-haired beauty dismounted and began walking up the stairs to the front door, prompting Utena to hurry after her. Within just a few moments the two of them were inside the castle.

After venturing through a short entryway, Anthy had brought Utena to a large cavernous chamber with a throne atop a small set of stairs. On the far wall of the camber was the large circular carving of a winged serpentine dragon holding a heart in one of its claws. Utena immediately recalled seeing the same symbol on Anthy's back when they first started living together at the dorm. Utena didn't dwell too long on the carving though, for very soon she noticed someone sitting on the throne beneath it. Utena was shocked to discover that it was Akio.

Akio opened his eyes and smiled as he looked down at Utena. "You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this moment. Welcome Utena. I congratulate you on making it all the way to this game's final round."

"Akio? What're you doing here?" Utena asked. "You can't…you can't be End of the World!"

"Oh, but I can," Akio replied as he rose to his feet and began walking down the steps to the throne. "I'm the only person End of the World can be, since only End of the World can be up here in Seibal. For this is my kingdom…or rather what's left of it I should say."

"But Anthy said you didn't know anything about the turbo duels or her being the Rose Bride!"

Akio chuckled. "That was a lie I instructed Anthy to tell. The truth is she's been my accomplice this whole time. We started this game ten thousand years ago to regain what I had lost."

"Ten…thousand years?" a stunned Utena whispered as she looked back at Anthy.

Anthy was at that moment looking at Akio as if Utena wasn't there at all. The purple-haired girl's eyes were deader than Utena had ever seen them.

"Actually, Anthy was the one who started this whole mess in the first place," Akio continued as he walked past Utena and took hold of Anthy's chin. "You know what they say about the road to hell being paved with good intentions? Anthy did a very bad thing to save my life, but in doing so she cursed us both. She became a witch, while I became a monster and lost all of the power I once had. Our kingdom fell to ruin after that, becoming this floating mausoleum we now stand in. Ever since then we've been wanderers, searching the earth for a way to bring back the power I once had; the power I need to give us back our old lives and go back to the way things were. And now thanks to you Utena, that power is finally in my grasp again."

"I don't understand…are you saying that you made Anthy the Rose Bride somehow?" Utena asked.

"It wasn't me. Anthy chose this fate for herself. And now it's at last time for her to fulfill her final role in the ritual to help me regain my lost power and awaken the being that has become my other self."

With that, Akio snapped his fingers, and suddenly Anthy's eyes rolled to the back of her head and she started to collapse. Before the purple-haired girl hit the ground though, she vanished, leaving behind only her Rose Bride outfit. Suddenly the room started to shake and the large wall decorated with the dragon carving began to recede further. The throne Akio had been sitting upon earlier suddenly shattered apart and the steps up to it extended upward into a large staircase that connected directly to the wall. Soon after, Anthy appeared at the top of those steps in the very center of the wall.

To Utena's horror, Anthy looked just like she did in the nightmare the pinkette had experienced the night before. The purple-haired girl was naked except for a tattered red cloth that hung down around her waist. Anthy was bound in the position of a cross by chains, and she had swords and daggers piercing her torso.

Utena glared Akio. "How the hell could you do such a horrible thing to Anthy? Isn't she your sister?"

"It is because Anthy's my sister that she's putting herself through this," Akio replied. "This is her ultimate act of love for me, an act that brought me back to life and made her a sacrifice. But let's not worry about Anthy right now."

With that, Akio came over to Utena and pulled the pinkette close.

"I love you, Utena. I want you to be my princess. We don't have to keep playing this game anymore. You can just concede right now and let me claim the power I'm after. Once I have that power in my grasp again, I'll shower you with a kind of love you've never known. You'll want for nothing. Together, you and I will live for eternity in paradise."

Akio then began to move in to kiss Utena on the lips. Somehow Utena found herself wanting to submit to Akio's offer. She didn't know if it was due to Akio's similarity to Dios or some other kind of power he had, but it didn't matter, for just as Akio was about to lock lips with hers, Utena saw Anthy still bound to the wall out of the corner of her eye. Seeing this, Utena violently pushed Akio away, nearly knocking him to the ground.

"There's no way in hell I'd give myself to you like that!" Utena declared. "If it's to save Anthy, I'll fight you to the death!"

Akio was initially surprised by Utena's declaration, but then started to chuckle. "Ah! I see. So Anthy is the unrequited love you told me about. I hate to disappoint you Utena, but Anthy never had any real feelings for you. The only reason she got close to you was because I instructed her to."

"I don't believe that! I'm not certain but…I've seen how Anthy really cares for me. So I'm going to keep fighting to free her from this madness!"

Akio sighed and shook her head. "As you wish. Looks like we'll be doing this the hard way after all."

With that, Akio snapped his fingers, and a blinding flash of light enveloped the room. The light cleared a few moments later, and Utena found that she was on the back of her D-Wheel out in front of the palace. She then heard the sound of an engine and assumed that Akio was driving up in a D-Wheel of his own. What she saw instead though was a slick red sports car with the top down the name, Ohtori on the front license plate. The car pulled up next to Utena, and she saw Akio in the driver's seat with a deck holder on his wrist.

"What do you think of my D-Cruiser?" Akio asked. "I had it constructed using the latest solid vision technology and Momentum engine."

"A…a car? I was willing to go along with the Skeleton Knight's horse, but this is just ridiculous!" Utena declared.

"This is more to my style than a common D-Wheel. And don't forget Utena, we're in my kingdom now, which means we do things my way. Now then! The first one to take the corner around the next building to the right gets the first turn! I'll give the signal!"

Utena turned her attention to the road ahead and revved her D-Wheel's engine as Akio revved the engine of his extravagant sports car. She focused all her attention on the corner around the building that Akio pointed out and tried not to let the fact that Akio was driving a larger vehicle than her throw her off.

"Three…two…one…duel start!" Akio called out.

With that, both Akio and Utena took off down the road. At first it seemed like Utena was going to pass Akio's car, but then the dark prince deftly adjusted the gearshift lever of his vehicle and accelerated at an amazing speed, totally catching Utena off guard. With Utena's attention momentarily off the road, Akio cut in front of her and caused her swerve. By the time Utena finally straightened her course again, Akio's red D-Cruiser had already vanished around the corner of the building that was their goal marker. Gritting her teeth in frustration, Utena drove around the building and managed to catch up to Akio a bit, though the dark prince still had an amazing lead on her.

Akio grinned and drew his first card. "Looks like the first turn is mine. I summon Priestess of Paradise Lost in Defense Mode!"

Materializing on the hood of Akio's car in a sitting position was a young-looking woman with chalk-white skin and fiery red hair. She had ruby red lips and yellow reptilian eyes with slit pupils. Her outfit was a sort of black bikini with black elbow-high gloves and black knee-high high-heeled boots. Black tattoos resembling some sort of hieroglyphs decorated her arms and stomach, and hanging from her neck from a gold chain was an amulet resembling the eye of a peacock feather. As soon as the woman appeared on the hood of Akio's D-Cruiser, she threw her head back and kicked a leg into the air.

"I set one card on the field and end my turn!" Akio announced as he placed a card in one of the slots of the duel disk tray attached to the console of his car where a radio would normally be.

Utena drew her next card. "First I activate Foolish Burial and send Junk Armor from my deck to the Graveyard! Next I special summon Junk Forward from my hand!"

On cue, Utena's mechanical warrior in full-body cream-colored armor appeared next to her D-Wheel.

"Next I summon Junk Synchron in Attack Mode!" Utena announced.

The spectacled Tuner in orange materialized next to Junk Forward.

"Using Junk Synchron's effect, I summon Junk Armor back to the field in Defense Mode!" Utena announced.

The small knight in thick clunky armor appeared next to Junk Synchron with a flash of white light.

"I tune the level three Junk Synchron into the level three Junk Forward and the level two Junk Armor for a level eight Synchro Summon!" Utena announced.

Junk Synchron pulled the ripcord in his chest armor, causing the engine on his back to rev to life. The spectacled Tuner then flashed orange and changed into three green rings of light, which promptly encircled the other four monsters and transformed them into five white stars.

"Flash of light that splits the sea of stars! Shake our souls and roar through this world!" Utena chanted. "Synchro Summon! Shine! Stardust Spark Dragon!"

The stars flashed and became a ray of blinding white light that shot down the road and expanded outward. In moments the light broke apart, and Stardust appeared with a roar as he showed the road with particles of light with each flap of his wings.

Akio smirked. "Going all out I see. At this moment I activate my facedown card, Demise of the Land! When my opponent special summons a monster, Demise of the Land lets me activate a Field Spell from my deck! From my deck I activate Domain of the Ultimate God!"

Suddenly Utena noticed that the sky was starting to get darker. When she looked up, she saw that the moon was quickly moving to block out the sun. In mere moments a total solar eclipse had begun, the same kind of eclipse that Utena had witnessed in her nightmare. Utena didn't know how, but she knew that the eclipse she was seeing wasn't a mere solid vision illusion like a normal Field Spell setting.

Akio chuckled. "And with this, the awakening of my other self now beings."


Juri was wheeling Shiori back to the dorms when she noticed the sky suddenly growing dark. When she looked up, she saw that a solar eclipse had suddenly begun. The redhead immediately got a bad feeling from the eclipse. Not only was there no word of such a rare celestial event occurring that day, Juri knew that there was just something wrong about the whole thing. Juri didn't have much time to ponder this mystery though, because suddenly Shiori groaned and fell out of her chair.

Before Juri could rush over to help Shiori, she suddenly felt all of the strength drain out of her body and fell to her knees. Juri grasped one of the handles of Shiori's wheelchair to keep from dropping to the ground. As the redhead tried to stand back up, her deck fell from the pocket of her jacket and its cards scattered to the ground. Juri looked down at the card for Hot Red Dragon Archfiend and was shocked to see its illustration change to a field of black with the symbol of a red serpentine dragon holding a heart in the center.

"Wh-what's…going on?" Juri uttered before finally collapsing and falling on her back. She looked up towards the eclipse and suddenly had an idea of what might be the cause of what was happening. "Dammit, Tenjou. This better not be…because you're losing up there."


Miki and Wakaba had been on their way to the campus library when they ran into Kozue on the way over. Wakaba and Kozue had started trading insults when Miki suddenly noticed the sky growing dark. Kozue and Wakaba soon noticed as well, and they both looked up about when Miki did and saw the solar eclipse.

"I didn't notice there was an eclipse happening today," Kozue remarked.

"There shouldn't be," Miki responded. "Something's…not right."

Suddenly Wakaba fell to her knees and had to prop herself up with arm arms to keep from collapsing entirely. The brown-haired girl had grown deathly pale. Meanwhile, Wakaba's deck had fallen out of her bag during her collapse and its cards had scattered on the ground.

"What's…going on?" Wakaba asked. "I…I don't…feel right."

Before Miki could go over to help Wakaba, Kozue suddenly collapsed as well. Miki suddenly felt the strength draining from his body. It was taking all he had to remain standing up. As Miki's mind raced to try and figure out what was going on, he glanced to the ground and suddenly noticed that the illustration of Wakaba's cards on the ground had all changed to that of a red dragon-like symbol in the middle of a field of black. Miki pulled out his own deck from his pocket and noticed that the same thing was happening with his deck as well.

"Brother!" Kozue called out as she struggled to breathe. "What's…happening to us? Are…are we dying?"

"I…don't know," Miki answered as he fell to one knee. "But I think…it might have something to do with what's happening with Ms. Tenjou right now. I hope…that she's all right."


Saionji was in his training dojo when he suddenly collapsed to the floor. He hadn't seen the eclipse, but he knew that something was very wrong outside. With what little strength he had, the green-haired swordsman managed to crawl over to his bag. He somehow sensed that he needed to take a look at his deck. After pulling the deck out of his bag, Saionji began looking through the cards and confirmed that something was terribly wrong.

The illustration of every card showed the red symbol of a winged serpentine dragon holding a heart in the middle of a field of black. Saionji knew somehow that what was happening had to do with Utena's challenge against End of the World. It wasn't long before Saionji's strength gave out completely and he fell completely to the floor, dropping his cards in the process.

"Dammit…Tenjou," Saionji whispered as his consciousness began to dim. "You had better…not…lose. It seems…all of our lives…are depending…on you now."


"As we speak, the Ultimate God is absorbing the life force of all humans down on the earth below," Akio revealed. "He's also absorbing all of the spirits and magic residing in all Duel Monsters cards down below as well. All of that energy is being funneled through Anthy's body to the Ultimate God, allowing him to revive. It won't be much longer at all before he fully awakens."

Utena glared ahead at Akio. "I don't know what's going on, but I'm not letting this continue for a moment longer! Stardust! Blow Priestess of Paradise Lost away! Shooting Blast!"

Stardust roared and fired a ray of light from his jaws at the woman sitting on the hood of Akio's car. The beam struck the redhead and caused her to shatter into particles of red light that blew away in the breeze. Akio was totally unconcerned about his monster's destruction though.

"That ends my turn!" Utena announced.

Akio calmly drew his next card. "To be honest Utena, I was expecting a little more from you during that turn. But I guess I shouldn't be surprised. After all, you're nothing more than a child playing a game, pretending that you're a prince. In the end though, you'll never be anything more than a little girl."

"Just shut your damn mouth and make you next move!" Utena shot back.

"Very well. Domain of the Ultimate God allows both of us to summon a level eight or higher monster normally without need of any tributes," Akio announced. "Therefore, I summon Bird of Paradise Lost in Attack Mode!

Suddenly descending out of the sky to fly above Akio's D-Cruiser was a gigantic bird that dwarfed Stardust Spark Dragon in size. It had massive wings that were collared green, blue, red and purple. Its chest was red, while its neck was blue with large white stripes that had black edges. Long tufts of indigo feathers with black and gold rings tided around them hung down from the bird's shoulders. From the beast's rear grew a mass of large gold and silver tail feathers, with four large black blade-like feathers decorated with a gold design extending covering the top of the mass of feathers from its back. Hanging down from the beast's stomach were three long black and gold spines. The bird had a dragon-like head with a green jaw and a black mask-like face and red eyes. Long lavender hair trailed from the back of the bird's head, and from its mask extended three long horns decorated with the same gold pattern as its four black tail feathers.

"I now activate the first effect of Priestess of Paradise Lost from the Graveyard!" Akio announced. "When I have a level eight or higher Tuner monster such as Bird of Paradise Lost on the field, I can special summon Priestess of Paradise Lost from the Graveyard as a level eight monster!"

With a flash of crimson light, Priestess of Paradise Lost reappeared on the hood of Akio's D-Cruiser, taking the same pose she did when she first showed up in the duel.

"At this moment I activate the second effect of Priestess of Paradise Lost!" Akio announced. "Once per turn, Priestess of Paradise Lost can change a level five or higher Tuner monster into a Minus Tuner until the end of the turn."

Priestess of Paradise lost pointed a gloved index finger up towards Akio's massive dragon-like bird and fired a ray of crimson light. The beam struck the Bird of Paradise Lost in the stomach and caused his body to give off a black shadowy aura.

"Minus Tuner?" Utena asked. "I've never heard of anything like that."

"Normally a Synchro Summon works by having a Tuner monster add its own level to the levels of the other monsters being used in the summon," Akio explained. "But a Minus Tuner subtracts its level from the level of the other monster being used in the summon to bring forth a very different type of Synchro Monster. I tune the level eight Bird of Paradise Lost into the now level eight Priestess of Paradise Lost for a level zero Dark Synchro Summon!"

Bird of Paradise Lost flashed green and changed into eight black stars that flew down and entered the body of Akio's wicked priestess. Priestess of Paradise Lost turned into a black transparent version of her former self, showing sixteen white stars flying around inside her. Each of the stars collided into one another blinked out of existence on impact.

"Source of strength that wells from the dimension of chaos! The origin and apex of everything! Slake your endless craving in this world for a brief time!" Akio chanted. "Dark Synchro Summon! Descend! Ultimaya Tzolkin!"

When the last two stars inside of Akio's priestess faded from existence, her body changed into a ball of crimson light that flew from the hood of Akio's car and burrowed into the pavement of one of an ally that Akio and Utena drove past. Suddenly all of Seibal shook, and a massive pillar of crimson light from next to the road, obliterating five of the city's buildings. Utena watched with a mixture of horror and amazement as the head of the pillar formed into a pair of wings. In a matter of seconds the beam of light solidified and separated from the hole it had blown in the ground, and soon it formed into a massive winged serpentine dragon with golden eyes and a body made of crimson light. The dragon let out a roar that echoed through the heavens as it hovered above the city.

Utena instantly recognized the dragon as the one that had appeared in her nightmare the night before. It was as if the duel was turning into the fulfillment of some sort of dark prophecy.

"At last, the Ultimate God, Ultimaya Tzolkin has been freed from the stone husk imprisoned at the very core of Seibal!" Akio announced. "And now I shall demonstrate Ultimaya's power! By setting a Spell or Trap on the field, Ultimaya's power allows me to summon a Duel Dragon from my Extra Deck to serve us! I set one card on the field to call forth the first of our servants! Bow before me! Hot Red Dragon Archfiend!"

Ultimaya opened his mouth and a ball of scarlet light formed in his open jaws. The ball of light shot from the giant dragon's mouth and struck the road near Akio's D-Cruiser as it drove past. In seconds the ball of light faded to reveal Red Dragon, with glowing gold markings identical to Ultimaya's eyes decorating his chest.

"Red Dragon? But that's Juri's Duel Dragon!" Utena pointed out. "How the hell do you have it?"

"I told you before, Ultimaya has absorbed the spirits and magic of all Duel Monsters cards down on Earth," Akio answered. "Because of that, all of the Duel Dragons that I had left with Rudger Goodwin or deemed to bestow to your friends on the student council have returned to my Extra Deck. Now then, ordinarily I can only use Ultimaya's effect to summon a Duel Dragon once per turn. But because I have Domain of the Ultimate God on the field, I can activate Ultimaya's effect twice per turn! Therefore I set one more card on the field to summon our second servant! Bow before me! Power Tool Mecha Dragon!"

Ultimaya opened his jaws again and fired another ball of scarlet light down towards the road near Akio's D-Cruiser. As soon as the projectile struck the pavement, it quickly faded to reveal Power Tool Mecha Dragon. Just like Red Dragon, the mechanical dragon that had once belonged to Miki had the same glowing gold markings that Red Dragon now had decorating his chest.

"Bastard!" Utena cursed. "How the hell can you just take Juri and Miki's Duel Dragons like that?"

"You really don't get it, do you Utena. You and your friends have merely been dancing in the palm of my hand; playing the roles I assigned you in the ritual to revive my other self. I gave your friends those dragons because I needed them to wield those cards, and now that there's no longer and need for them to have those Duel Dragons, I've simply taken them back," Akio explained. "Now if you're through with your complaints, it's still my move. I equip Power Tool Mecha Dragon with Amulet of Eternal Malice!"

Appearing around Power Tool's neck with a flash of purple light was a silver skull hanging from a black chain. Purple gems decorated the eye sockets of the skull, and two gold nails protruded from the skull's sides.

"Amulet of Eternal Malice lowers the ATK of the monster it's equipped to by 500," Akio announced. "But more importantly, since Power Tool Dragon has been equipped with a card, I get to draw an extra card from my deck."

"But why lower Power Tool's ATK just to draw one card?" Utena asked.

"I don't need Power Tool to attack, but to deliver something to your dragon," Akio answered. "I now activate Hot Red Dragon Archfiend's effect! Crimson Hellfire! This effect destroys all other monsters on the field! But at this moment I use Domain of the Ultimate God's effect to prevent Ultimaya from being destroyed!"

"I activate Stardust's effect to prevent him from being destroyed this turn!" Utena announced. "Sonic Barrier!"

Red Dragon roared and slammed his fist into the pavement of the road, sending a wave of flames across the field. Ultimaya was untouched, but Power Tool exploded as soon as the flames struck him. Meanwhile, a transparent sphere of blue light had formed around Stardust, which shattered upon being struck by the wave of fire. Stardust himself though was totally unharmed.

"And now the second effect of Amulet of Eternal Malice activates!" Akio announced. "When the monster equipped with the amulet is destroyed, the amulet equips itself to an opponent's monster! I now gift Stardust with the amulet and lower his ATK to 2000!"

Suddenly a ball of purple light flew up from the ground and struck Stardust in the chest. In seconds the light formed into the silver skull amulet that Power Tool had been wearing.

"I attack Stardust with Red Dragon!" Akio announced. "Absolute Hell Dogma!"

"Because of Stardust's effect, he can't be destroyed in battle this turn!" Utena announced.

"But you still take damage!" Akio pointed out.

Red Dragon flew in and delivered a punch to Stardust's gut with a fist covered in flames. Though Stardust had the wind knocked out of him, he was left completely unharmed by the attack. Utena's life points on the other hand had dropped to 3000, and the speed of her D-Wheel had decreased.

"I'll end my turn there," Akio announced. "It should be clear to you now though that you're out of your out of your league, Utena. Now that my other self has been revived and is on the field, any further struggles against me are useless."

"You keep calling that thing your other self," Utena observed. "Why is that?"

"Because when Anthy called upon Ultimaya's power to resurrect me, Ultimaya took possession of my soul and made me into his avatar," Akio explained. "I am now but an extension of the Ultimate God, but once this duel is over, I will be so much more."

"You keep saying that Anthy had to bring you back from the dead. Just who the hell are you anyway?"

At this, Akio began to chuckle. "Come now Utena. Surly you've figured out who I really am by now. I am the Rose Prince, Dios! And I have returned to reclaim the crown that I lost!"


Author's Note: I had been debating with myself almost since the story began about whether or not Akio should use a regular D-Wheel or his fancy sports car from the anime in a turbo duel. In the end I decided to go with the car because it's pretty much part of his character in a way. Before I made any final decisions though, I decided to check with my friend Firebolt the Blazing Saint to see what he thought of the idea. He's actually the one who came up with the idea to call Akio's dueling car a D-Cruiser. Anyway, let's get into the original cards seen in this chapter.

Priestess of Paradise Lost

DARK/Fairy/Effect/4/ATK 1800/DEF 700

If the only monster you control a Level 8 or higher Tuner monster; you can Special Summon this card from your Graveyard as a Level 8 monster. Once per turn, you can target 1 Level 5 or higher Tuner monster; it becomes a Minus Tuner until the end of the turn.

Early on when I was trying to figure out Akio's deck, I decided that the Tuner monster, Bird of Paradise Lost suited him perfectly. Plus that fit with the strategy of summoning Ultimaya perfectly. When it came time to figure out Akio's other cards though, I decided to expand the "Paradise Lost" theme into an entire archetype. Thus we have the first original Paradise Lost monster seen above. Initially I had planned on just having Bird of Paradise Lost show up as a Minus Tuner from the beginning, but I decided to give Priestess of Paradise Lost the effect to convert regular Tuners into Minus Tuners because I felt like she needed more than just the effect of being able to summon herself from the Graveyard as a Level 8 monster.

Domain of the Ultimate God

Field Spell

Monsters on the field cannot be banished. Once per turn, each player can Normal Summon a Level 8 or higher monster from the hand without tribute. The controller of this card can activate the effect of "Ultimaya Tzolkin" to Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck twice per turn instead of once per turn. Once per turn, if a face-up "Ultimaya Tzolkin" would be destroyed either by battle a card effect: it is not destroyed. When "Ultimaya Tzolkin" is attacked by an opponent's monster, it gains the ATK of that monster during the Damage Step only. While this card is on the field, a "Phantasmal Lord Ultimitl Bishbaalkin" cannot be targeted for battle or card effects while its own controls at least 1 "Utchatzimime Token".

It took me a little while to get all of the effects for this Field Spell figured out. Obviously I designed it as a card to support Ultimaya and his evolved form. The card also replicates some of the major effects Ultimaya had in the manga because for technical reasons I thought it'd be easier to write the duel using his real world effect.

Amulet of Eternal Malice

Equip Spell

The equipped monster loses 500 ATK and DEF. When a monster equipped with this card is destroyed by a card effect; you can equip this card to a face-up monster your opponent controls.

Just sort of a random card I came up with for Akio to use with Power Tool.

That about covers it for this week. Until next time, please review and let me know what you think.
