A/N:Chapter twelve. This marks the first time ANY fics written by me of UU goes over 10,000 words, so I'll try to make this chap worthwhile. Be warned: I'm preparing a {drumroll please}PLOT TWIST! The storyline takes a different turn from the show, and our heroes have another strange challange to overcome.Here we go.

Disclaimer:..............................................................................................................................................................{snores}................................huh? What was I supposed to do now?

Claimer: Drake and Lara. Now let me get some sleep. Oh, yeah. Remember what the word Pfft means.

{snores}

O will copy Drake's deck and K copies Lara's.

The rules are the same as the Para Dox duel.

Turn of order:
1.O
2.Drake
3.K
4.Lara
[repeat until half is thoroghly beaten and whipped]
***************************************************************
"I play the Dragon Zombie, in attack mode."O called out.[1600/0]

"I'll counter that with my Koumori Dragon, in attack mode!" Drake yelled. [1500/1200]

"I summon the Queen of Autum Leaves!"K said. [1800/1600]

"Nekogal!"Lara said[1900/2000]"Attack the Dragon Zombie!"

The female warriors tail whipped the DZ into ashes.[LP:1700]

"Time to show you some of the more advanced moves."O said."I play the Petit Dragon along with Firegrass, fusing them into the Black Dragon Jungle King!"
[2100/1800]

"HUH?!"

"Don't tell me you didn't know?"O taunted."One of the different rules in this tournament is that by playing monsters that can be fused in the same turn, it automatically works;No Polymerization needed!"

The BDJK destroyed the KD easily.[LP:1400]

Drake was slightly surprised, but quickly got over it.

"Then I combine the Time Wizard and the Baby Dragon into the Thousand Dragon."[2400/2000]

The elderly dragon burned K's Queen of Autum Leaves into ashes.[LP:1400]

K drew her card, and gasped.

"I.. I don't believe it. How could THIS card be in that girl's deck?"

Then she realized who the boy was.

"Of course,"K smirked,"go Blue Eyes White Dragon!"[3000/2500]

"Ohhhhhh crap."was all Lara could say as her Nekogal was blown away. [LP:900]

{Darn! If I'd have known my deck was going to be used against me, I would have waited before putting that in!}Lara thought bitterly.

{Still, I can't give up! Drake's counting on me, I have to do this!}

She pulled her card, heart racing and....

"CHANGE OF HEART! That BEUD is mine!"She yelled triumphantly.

Of course, K had no mosters defending her, so that meant-

"This duel is over." Drake said."You two lost. You should know better than to fight us with our own decks. Now hand over the chips!"

"K., activate the trap."

"Right, O."

"Huh?"Lara said.

Then the floor beneath the two of them dissapeared.

They were heard falling with a"OH SHIIIIIIII-"
***************************************************************
THUD

They landed as the scream finally stopped.

"Drake? Lara? How did you guys get here?"

They both looked up to see Yugi and the others,plus two weird bald guys.

"We fell, duh! Were are we?"Lara asked.

"You are in our labyrinth."One of the bald guys said."And to leave, you must defeat us in a duel."

"HEY! We already beat you guys! Why should they hafta duel ya?"Joey griped.

"Because no one will leave until they do."Was the answer, and immediately the two exits were covered with walls of steel.

"Well, that's cheap."Drake grumbled.
***************************************************************
After re-designing their decks to be more fuisionable, Drake and Lara agreed.

"We both wager five chips on this duel, meaning we all get to enter the castle when it's over."Drake acknoledged.

"Is that what you think? Surely you jest!"said Para.

"Defeating duelists is what we do best!"rhymed Dox.
***************************************************************
A/N:You didn't think I was gonna make it that easy for them to get into the castle, did you? Hey, wait!

{Sees hundreds of flames coming toward him, some in reviews and some from a REBD.}

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! IT BURNS!

Preview:Next, Drake and Lara double-duel the Paradox brothers.Drake has a way to overcome the no-flying rule, but Lara could still be an easy target for their monsters.

Drake:You AREN'T going to bring the Gate Guardian into this, are you?

Alpha:Ummmmm, heh, heh, oops.

Lara:DIE EVIL ECHIDNA!

Alpha:I'm not really AGHHHHHHHHH! IT BURNS!
