Episode 3 - Weevil = Evil and other Stupid Math

Alright. Time for a story review. Now then. Mai beat up Rex and
Weevil threw the Exodia Cards that won Yugi's duel against Seto Kaiba
overboard. Tea and Tristan snuck onboard and spotted Bakura there. Then
they helped rescue Yugi and Joey, although only two of the Exodia Cards were
found. The ship arrived at the Duelist Kingdom. Gee. Very exciting, huh?
Now back to our irregular story.

All the duelists on the ship started to pack their things and leave,
when Yugi remembered something.

"Tristan, Tea, what if somebody spots you as non-duelists? Then
what will you do?" Yugi asked.

"We'll just act natural, of course. Nobody could tell then that we
aren't duelists. Of course, we really CAN duel..." Tea spoke.

"Oh yeah. I forgot that you could duel" said Joey despite a glare
from Tea.

The group of 4 walked off the ship together. Tristan stiffened up
as he walked past the guards.

"Hey, you" one of the security guards said. "No need to be so
stiff. You're one of ours and Mr. Pegasus' guests."

"Yeah, that's right" said Tristan and he smiled and kept walking.

"Strange kid" said the security guard.

"That scared me. I thought he had figured out that I'm not a
duelist for a moment" Tristan trembled as he ran to catch up with the group.
"So what do we do now?"

"There" Joey said, pointing up at the huge Castle on top of a high
mountain. It was near the seaside. "That's where. But how do we get up
there?"

"With the stairs!" said Yugi as he started to run toward the base of
what looked to be a thousand stairs.

"AHHHH!" cried out Tea and she caught up to Yugi and ran infront of
him and stopped him. "Isn't there an escalator anywhere?"

"No, there isn't, Tea. Come on" Yugi said. Everybody had caught up
by now and started to head up the stairs that wound up through the forest.
Tea took a look over the edge.

"Bakura?" she wondered to herself. She could have sworn that she
had just seen him.

"Oh. Seeing Bakura again, are you?" Tristan mocked. Tea felt ready
to throw him over the side of the stairway.

When the group reached the top, they got their first real look at
Pegasus. He was waiting on a balcony near the top of the castle.

"Welcome, duelists. Welcome to Duelist Kingdom, a tournament
riddled with surprises all around the corner. You'll have to find them soon
or you'll be eliminated soon. And I'm sure most of you don't want that.
When you have earned 10 Star-Chips, you gain entry to this castle. From
there, anybody who has earned them will face-off against one-another in
duels to determine who finally competes against me. I hope it's going to be
a lot of fun for you all!" spoke Pegasus. He then cheered in his girly
voice and everybody covered their ears.

"You mean we came up all these stairs just to hear THAT?" Joey
whined.

"The duels will begin in 1 hour when fireworks light up the sky. I
wish the best of luck to you all!" Pegasus finished and walked off.

"Good thing we shouldn't be hearing THAT voice for a while" Yugi
said. The others nodded and everybody left to go find some place to duel.

In exactly 1 hour after, fireworks shot up into the sky and the
duels began.

"So who are you going to duel first, Yugi?" Tea asked.

"Weevil. I'm going to knock him out of the tournament. Me and him
have a settle to score, I mean, a score to settle." Yugi replied.

"Alright then. Let's find him... too late" Joey said as he spotted
Weevil on the end of the field they were on.

"Welcome, said the spider to ze fly!" Weevil sneered.

"Weevil, I'm gonna take you down right now before you get a chance
to cheat anybody else!" Yugi proclaimed. He then shouted "Yu-Gi-Oh!" and in
another flash of light, he was replaced with a taller, older Yugi.

"Well then, if you wanna duel.." said Weevil, "Here's the place!" he
called, and the field opened up and out rose a huge dueling stadium, the
same kind used in the regional championships. Yugi stepped on one end of
the platform and it rose up. He could see a huge dueling field in front of
him.

"Go yug!" called Joey from the ground.

"Will you please not call me that?" asked Yugi.

"Whatever you say, Yug!" Joey called up. Yugi facefaulted.

"So, Yugi is gonna duel Weevil. This is gonna be interesting" came
Mai's voice from the bushes. She promptly walked out and took a good look
over the dueling field.

"Are you ready, Weevil?" Yugi asked.

"DUEL!" Weevil challenged back and he played his first card. "I
play the Basic Insect in defense mode!"

Yugi drew his card and challenged back "Then I destroy it with
Beaver Warrior!" he said. The Beaver Warrior appeared high in the air, then
landed on and flattened the Basic Insect, making it dissapear.

Weevil snickered. "Interesting. But how will you contend with my
trap card? And until you find a way, I will play my Giant Mantis card and
attack and flatten your Beaver Warrior!"

A Giant Mantis appeared from the forest floor, and Yugi suddenly
noticed something. Giant Mantis's ATK was supposed to be 1600. But it was
at 2080. He tore into Beaver Warrior and Yugi lost 680 Life Points, leaving
him with 1320.

"If you had of been smart enough to steal the tournament's new
rules, then you would know what kind of monsters did best on which type of
square. Look around. Half the field is Forest and half is Plains. On the
Forest squares, all my monsters get a power bonus of 30 percent!" Weevil
taunted.

"So that was the new rules Pegasus mentioned" Mai said. "I guess
then that I know where I will need to go next for my duels.

"Come on, Yugi. You can beat him! I know you can!" Tea shouted up.

"Weevil = Evil, Yugi!" Tristan shouted up. "You can take him!"

"And Joey = Dummy if you ask me" said Mai.

"Mai = Modified Abiotic Idiot!" Joey retorted.

"And just what does that mean?" Tea asked.

"I'm not sure" Joey replied.

"Friends are useless to Yugi. He has to rely on himself only if he
wants to win this duel. Especially since if he loses he loses his only
Star-Chip AND he loses his deck because he is challenging for Weevil's two
chips. This is an all-or-nothing duel that Yugi can't afford to lose and
his 'friends' will only distract him." Mai stated.

"Grr...." Tea growled.

Meanwhile, Yugi had defended against Giant Mantis and even destroyed
it by attacking with Gaia, the Fierce Knight and dealing 140 damage to
Weevil, leaving him with 1860 to Yugi's 1320.

"An interesting card. But I lied. My card isn't a trap. It's a
magical card. But before I can use it, I have to use my Petit Moth first.
And now, I can play the Cocoon of Evolution, to turn my Petit Moth into the
all-powerfull Great Moth, with enough power to destroy any monster in
your deck!" Weevil said. The tiny worm that was the Petit Moth became
trapped within a hideous hot-pink cocoon.

"Hot-Pink? Well, we knew Weevil had no sense of fashion in the
first place, but THIS is ridiculous!" Tea and Mai both complained at once,
noticed that they were mimicing each other, and grimaced.

"Gaia, attack!" commanded Yugi.

Gaia dashed at the hot pink cocoon but he bounced right back off of
it. Yugi took 300 damage leaving him with 1020 Life Points.

"You fool! The cocoon has a defense of 2000, but on the forest
squares, it gains 30 percent more defense for a total of 2600! BWA HA HA HA
HA HA HA ha ha ha ha ha cough cough" Weevil coughed.

"Dangit..." Yugi said. "But what do I do if I really can't beat
that thing? Then what? I'll have to have a defense" Yugi said, playing the
Feral Imp card in defense.

"Going to have to defend? That's sad, Yugi!" Weevil taunted. "It's
just 2 more turns until you can't do anything!"

"He may be right" thought Yugi. "I need to be ready for anything
but I don't wanna play something that will get me killed. I will have to
end this turn for now."

Weevil once again did nothing. He was really confident in his Great
Moth and the fact that it would destroy all of Yugi's monsters.

"Yugi, there is nothing you can do. When this dome cracks open, it
will reveal the incredibly Great Moth. With it's power I can't be stopped!"
Weevil taunted.

"Yugi!" came Joey's shout. "You can't let this creep get to you.
You gotta get fired up!"

"Do you really think your cheerleading will make any difference? If
you ask me, then I'd say the LAST thing he needs is your help. And if you
ask me, I'd say he's finshed" Mai commmented.

"I didn't ask you anything!" Tea blurted out. "And why is he
smiling now?" she said, pointing up at Yugi. He was smiling. Or at least
grinning.

"What?" Mai wondered. "What possible idea could he have gotten from
these freaks? And why is Tea sticking her tounge out at me? That arrogant
little kid."

"Fired up. That's it!" Yugi thought. he then spoke "I play this
card, the Curse of Dragon! And with it I play the magic of the Burning
Land! Attack, Curse of Dragon!"

Milgasia shot fire out of his mouth and blasted the cocoon with it.
The flames bounced harmlessly off.

"Yugi, you idiot! You know that won't work!" Weevil taunted.

"I know. I wasn't aiming for the Cocoon. I was aiming for the
land. With it burned, you no longer gain a field power bonus! Leaving your
Cocoon of Evolution with 2000 DEF, so that Gaia can take care of it! Go,
Gaia!"

"Gotcha, boss!" said Gaia as he stabbed a long lance into the hot
pink cocoon. It exploded. Gaia backed off, but the pink gunk covered him
and made him look like a female. "This sucks!"

"No! My precious Great Moth... but it isn't over yet! Look!"
Weevil said. A huge moth arose from the center of the half-destroyed
cocoon.

"It isn't as powerfull as normal, but it still has an attack of 2600
even without the field power bonus! How will you fight it now?" Weevil
screeched.
