Chapter 6; consequences of disrespect
Sonic opened his eyes and looked at the time. It was 9:30. He tried to sleep a bit more but it was impossible. In the end he got up, dressed and went to get some breakfast for himself and Amy who was still asleep. He got back with a sandwich in each hand and Amy's favorite apple juice. He sat next to her and waited for her to wake up. When her eyes opened she gave him a shiny smile and got up. They kissed and started eating their breakfast.
"So baby. What do you wanna do today?" Sonic asked her.
"If we weren't under the war and we had more days I would suggest we sit in here all day on the bed and kiss." She said with a dreamy look on her face. " but I would also like to visit every part of the city."
"Then it is decided. We will roam the city and decide what we do at that very moment." Sonic decided.
"Let's go." she said unable to wait.
They left the hotel and started roaming around the city. In the beginning they walked alongside the river and reached a beautiful waterfall just 2 minutes outside of town. They took photos of themselves with the waterfall as background and noticed that on Sonic's cell phone there was no location text above the photo. That made them laugh as if the cell phone was out of its water. Then they visited a museum of the history of that world learning that it wasn't the first time creatures out of this world came to it. Around 2:00 they went to a restaurant and got half a pizza each which was really tasty. Later in the afternoon they went to a local bar and just sat and discussed what they would do when they returned to earth. But when Sonic went to the bathroom for a minute a handsome guy who had his eye on Amy ever since she and Sonic entered the bar took advantage of the chance. He approached the bar.
"2 glasses of beer please" he said
When the barman brought them he gave one to Amy who looked surprise.
"Here's to you." He said while winking at her. She didn't change her expression and just left the beer as it was.
"What's the matter babe? You don't like beer? I'll order something else."
"The beer's fine. You are the problem. You're annoying me and I would really appreciate it if you left me alone."
"Come on babe. You are gorgeous. You can find better than that blue guy you hang out with."
"Oh yeah? Like?"
"Me of course."
"If there's one thing I hate it's a guy who knows he is handsome and takes advantage of it this way. Now leave before I lose my temper."
"Ha! I knew you wouldn't resist me. You just called me handsome. Come on babe. My apartment awaits."
"You are the most rude person I've ever seen! What do you think I am?"
"Just come babe. You'll love it." He said grabbing her from her wrist.
"Let me go you idiot!"
He didn't let her go. Amy tried to pull back. But he looked back as well.
"Oh I get it you wanna dance first. As you wish." He said trying to hold Amy from her back and pul her close to him. But at that moment he felt his right cheek being shattered from a punch that landed on it. He fell to the ground. When he looked up he saw an enraged Sonic looking at him ready to punch him again. Sonic grabbed him from the front of his t-shirt and brought his face close to the guy's face.
"Nobody disrespects my friends. And escpecially MY GIRLFRIEND!"
"Man you're such a loser. She can find far better than you."
Sonic didn't answer. Instead he punched his 'opponent' in the eye. It was obvious though that they couldn't stay there anymore. So he went out and Amy followed him. They sat next to the river and looked at the moon.
"Sorry" Sonic said after some minutes.
"Why are you sorry?" she asked while raising her head from his shoulder.
"For being a total animal in there. I wrecked this guy's face. And I also loved it."
"Nah don't be sorry for that, he deserved it. He was going to rape me if you haven;'t appeared. He is that kind of a guy I'm sure."
"I'm happy you see it this was sweetie." Sonic said while proceeding to kiss her. But at that moment..
"Stop right there!" a voice was heard from the road next to the river.
Sonic and Amy looked at that direction and saw the guy from the bar with a duel disc in his hand and a deck box on his belt.
"We're not done yet Blue! Now we will fight for your gorgeous lady."
"The name's Sonic! And no. I don't have to fight a weakling like you."
Amy was surprised. It was the first time Sonic called a duelist a weakling. He usually respected his opponents.
"I am a weakling? Or are you a damn coward?!"
These words echoed in Sonic's head so loud that he thought he would lose control, walk towards that guy and rip his heart out. but staying calm he said." Ok then. Let' make this interesting. I will beat you without taking a single point of damage."
"And what if I inflict you damage?"
"You will take my rarest card."
"Nah cards mean nothing to me. If I deal you damage I take your pink girlfriend for me!"
"That's a bit too much!"
"Why? You said that we made it interesting. You will back out now?"
"Of course not. Ok tough guy. You got yourself a deal!"
"Let's duel!"
"I'll start" Sonic declared. " I draw. I summon forth blackwing shura the blue flame. I end my turn."
"No set cards? My turn. I draw. I summon the trusted soldier in attack mode. Crush his shura!"
"Too naïve. I discard 3 kalut the moon shadows! Now my monster's attack rises to 6000!
"What?! AAAAH" (random guy LP 4000).
"And there's more. I discard blackwing blast the typhoon to activate its effect. Since I dealt you damage I can add one blackwing from my graveyard to my hand for every 2000 points of damage in your life points. So 2 of my kaluts return to my hand. Also destroying your monster allowed shura to summon blackwing gale the whirlwind from my deck."
"Damn. Fine. My trusted soldier returns in defense mode once it is destroyed in battle and its attack and defense stats switch. I set 3 cards face down. I end my turn."
"My turn then. I draw. I special summon blackwing Kris the crack of dawn. Then I activate the trap delta crow anti reverse. Since my monsters are 3 and they are all blackwings your set cards are destroyed"
"You destroyed my mirror force. Damn! But you also destroyed my set trap hidden shield. It double's the defense points of my monster."
"Damn. I tune then my shura and gale to synchro summon blackwing armor master! Then I play the spell blackwing feathers to draw two more cards. I set a card and end the pain for now."
"My turn."
"Hold it. I play the trap black explosion. For every blackwing monster out you take 500 points of damage!"
"AAAh (random guy LP 3000).
" Are you ever gonna try dealing me damage?" Sonic mocked him.
"You little.. I set a card and play the spell magic alchemy. I destroy my set card and then search my deck for a trap card. But I'm not allowed to play it until the next round. I destroy another sudden shield to double my monster's defense points again to 8000! And the trap I add is battle mania!"
"WHAT?!" Sonic's eyes widened.
"Once this trap activates you will be forced to attack my monster and you will lose."
"Not if I finish this before you activate it." Sonic said.
"You tried to mock me and you beat me up. But in the end righteousness wins. As I will win you girlfriend hahahahaha!"
Amy was silent the whole time.
"Are you done laughing?" she said
He looked at her.
"Why? You can't wait to see your boyfriend's downfall?"
"No. I can't wait to see YOUR downfall.'
"Hahhahaahahahaha. I can't lose. I'll just force him to attack and he will lose."
"That's the biggest proof you are a coward. You won't beat Sonic yourself. You will try to make him lose. But this time Sonic's right to mock you. You don't respect me ot him or anyone. So you don't deserve respect."
"I will love hearing you saying this when we two wil be at my apartment later. ALL ALONE."
"I've had enough of your silly words." Sonic said "I'm ending this!"
"Let's see you try! I end my turn by setting battle mania and another card face down."
"My turn. I draw."
"I activate battle mania. Also I play the trap dark knowledge. I pay 1000 LP (random guy LP 2000) to declare a card in your hand and if I call it right that card AND its copies are banished from the game. I say kalut the moon shadow. Hahahahaaha. Now let's see you overcoming this."
"Let's see you taking this. I activate black whirlwind. Then I summon forth blackwing blizzard the far north. Thanks to its effect I summon back kalut from my graveyard. Then I tune them into blackwing gram the shining star. i activate his effect so I can special summon forth borathe spear from my hand. I also have another bora in my hand. Then I play my final card. Transmodify!"
"Transmodify? What in the world is that?"
"Transmodify tributes my bora and searches for a dark attribute winged beast type monster level 5 in my deck. And I have just the one I need. The one and only blackwing sirocco the dawn!"
"So what! Your monsters are still gonna lose. To my trusted soldier."
"No they won't. they will attack together. Not one by one. For sirrcoco's effect combines all their attack points into one blackwing. I choose my bora the spear!"
"10300 attack points!" oh no!"
"And the best part. He pierces through defense!"
"NOOOOOO!" (random guy LP 0)
"No way. I lost. And you have all 8000 of your life points!"
"This is what you get for disrespecting my girlfriend. A complete and utter defeat! And don't show your face in front of me again or I swear I will smash it!"
Amy looked at Sonic in awe and fear. She had no idea that Sonic could be such a devastating opponent. He never underestimated or mocked his opponents. But this time his opponent deserved it. And by becoming this 'evil duelist' Sonic looked so strong it actually made her feel 100% safe that she even knew him. Sonic looked at her.
"Come babe. It's late. Let's get back to the hotel."
They left that guy next to the river trying to accept his defeat and they went back to the hotel. When they laid on the bed to sleep she hugged him and closed her eyes.
"Amy I was wondering… um… I think I was a bit too mean in that duel. I don't like being a mean duelist."
"Oh Sonic. You're so good. But still don't be so soft. Sometimes you have to be mean so the others can respect you. The only way one can learn to respect is.."
"By not being shown respect. Yeah I get your point. I have to become a bit tougher in personality matters."
"Nooo. Don't change. Be the same sweet man I know and love. Just pretend to be mean when you have to. Ok?"
"Ok" he said kissing her. After 5 minutes they were both asleep.
