Hello my fellow readers, writers, and people who have been enjoying this story so far, I'm back with yet another new chapter. In this chapter we're going to be having the duel between 'Marik' and Techna which you know what I'm talking about if you saw the battle city episodes of battle city. Anyway I don't have anything else to add in at the time of writing this Author's note so without further ado let's get this show on the road.

Techna's P.O.V.

Both me and my opponent Marik were on the dueling platform on top of the blimp and as I was shuffling my deck one of the other contenders Yugi said "Techna you need to know something about Marik." I said "I don't want to hear it because if I knew anything about his deck then that would give me an advantage over him and I believe that a duel should be fought on equal grounds."

I then inserted my deck into my duel disk and we both activated ours and drew our opening hands and I smirked at what was in my hand. My hand contained my three cyber dragons, polymerization, de-fusion, and negate attack and I said "why don't you go first" and he said "very well I activate the spell card temple of the kings.

Since I activated this now, I set this card face down and then I activate it Embodiment of Apophis in defense mode." I said "how can you activated a trap card that you just set on the field" and he replied "simple my temple of the kings allows me to activate one trap card that was set on the turn it was set so now I set two more cards face down and end my turn."

I drew different dimension capsule and I said "I activate the effect of my cyber dragon which since you control a monster while I don't control any I can special summon it right from my hand. Now cyber dragon attack his Apophis" and he said "I activate my face down tiki soul which this is yet again another trap monster so its gets summoned to the field in defense mode."

I said "cyber dragon continue your attack" and Apophis left the field only to go face down in his spell/trap zone and I said "what's your game your Apophis should be destroyed. He said "normally that would be the case however I have my tiki soul to thank for that you see as long as tiki soul is on the field, I can place any trap monsters that would be destroyed back face down on my field."

I said "I'll end my turn with a face down card" and he drew and said "I now sacrifice my tiki soul in order to summon mystical beast serket in attack mode. Now serket attack her cyber dragon" and cyber dragon was destroyed and my life points dropped to 7600 and he said "I'll end my turn with one face down card."

I drew monster reborn and said "I activate the spell card monster reborn to bring back my cyber dragon and then I activate the spell card polymerization to fuse my cyber dragon on the field with the two in my hand to form cyber end dragon in attack mode. Now cyber end dragon attack his serket" and he said "I activate my face down card mirror force which destroys your cyber end dragon."

I said "I'll end my turn" and he said "that was your last turn" and he drew and said "I now sacrifice my serket along with me my temple of the kings in order to summon my Egyptian god card the winged dragon of ra." Now I activate his effect by paying my own life points until I only have one 1 Ra gains those attack points" and his life points dropped to 1.

"now Ra attack my oppo" but he was cut off when a lightning bolt struck him right in the head which caused him to collapse. I started slowly walking over to him just as lightning struck right in front of me and I said "okay that's not going to happen" and I created a barrier over myself which protected me from the lightning strikes.

I then kneeled down next to him and started trying to wake him up" and Kaiba said "he has 5 minutes before he automatically forfeits the duel." I then decided to try using a spell of revival even though it was only supposed to be used on computers but drastic times called for drastic measures. However, as I tried it nothing happened and the holographic projectors deactivated and I thought to myself "I wonder why that happened" and after five minutes Kaiba said "by automatic forfeit Techna wins."

As I was about to walk down from the platform there was an evil laughing coming from the back of the group which caught my attention. After a moment it looked like the one guy who seemed to get to the final's location around the same time as Marik he said "At last." I said "what do you mean" and he said "with that fool out of the way I'm finally free I've been locked away in the subconscious of the person you know as Marik but now I'm free."

He then held out what looked like the rod that the Marik I faced when he was in the duel with me but instead of the one that I saw this one started glowing. Then Yugi's puzzle started glowing and he said "Marik your problem is with me so leave everyone else alone" and he chuckled with a dark undertone and said "I'll play by your rules for now Pharaoh but we'll see what happens."

He then turned away and left the top of the blimp with one of the elevators on it and left us without another word."

Yet another chapter done I know this chapter isn't that long but I couldn't really think of anything else to add so until next time this is Diamondholder signing off.
