A/N: Ok, that was weird. Maybe Lara shouldn't get to type. Anyway, due to sudden incredible burst of inspiration-
Everyone: *snorts*
Alpha: Only one of the tournament duels will tale place this chappie. Don't worry, it will eventually be resolved, but my plans go much further than a simple tournament.
Drake: And that's a good thing, how?
Alpha: Well, maybe not for YOU.......
Disclaimer: *Aims Supa-Biggo Cannon toward 4 Kids Entertainment.*
Claimer: 42
Drake: And he says Lara's weird.
Alpha: Why? Wasn't she weird last night?
Drake:[ PFFT X 900]
Alpha: Wow, Lara's right. Drake's face DOES look funny that way.
Oh yeah. I forgot last chap's footnote. Oh well.......
Drake: Soooooo, I'm not the only one too lazy to-
Alpha: Shut up. At least I can see Sailor Moon transformation scenes without having someone ask me to buy it.
Lara: When WILL I get my own scene, Drake?
Alpha: Huh? That's strange. The PFFT meter just broke.
*sees Lara with an evil grin*
Alpha: Sheesh. Anyway, if I don't update much, it's because I discovered a marvelous game that combines the most humorable characters in the world with some of the coolest.
Yami Alpha: The way you talk, its as if the world doesn't already know about Kingdom Hearts.
Alpha: Shut up. Anyway, I also have a few new attack names this chapter, owing to reasons I'm sure the readers can understand. Enjoy!
********************************************************
3rd Person Omnicient POV
"The finals of the tournament will be as thus." Yami said, using his seemingly patented deep voice. "Lara VS. Yugi, and Drake VS. Joey."
The group sweatdropped. Yami, standing over the dueling, uh, Stump, with an audience of six hardly looked like a tournament.
"Finalists, approach." Yami said.
"Does he always have to talk like that?" Tristan asked needlessly.
"Tournament rules." Drake said. "Referees have to be stiff as boards. Though we haven't tried the diving board test on Yami, I'm sure his hair is proof enough."
********************************************************
A/N: AGHHH! *gets trampled by fangirls trying to kill Drake.*
DRAKE! Maybe more than five paragraphs without killing me would work!
********************************************************
Lara and Yugi set on opposite sides of the dueling....stump..... ready to face each other.
Yugi was a little uncertain; This was his first hard-core match without Yami, so he was unsure about his chances.
"I put one card facedown."He said,"and one monster in defense."
As he put the cards in their places, the lack of flashes and Holo-sounds was slightly off-putting.
"Ok, Yugi. "Lara said." I start by doing the same."
Another quick turn, nothing really interesting happening.
"Ok, maybe tournaments back home were a little bit serious, but this is just boring!" Joey started to gripe.
The griping ceased, however, on Yugi's next turn.
"I flip Gaia, the Fierce Knight, into attack mode!" He said. 2300/2100
The knight appeared in a flash, and struck the defense card on Lara's side.
For a brief second, a Winged Dragon appeared, before dissapearing again.
"Good move." Lara complemented." Now I summon Mystical Sand, in attack, and power her up with Melevolent Nuzzler!" 2800/1800
The Mystical Sand was a sorceress on a broomstick, clothed in red robes and a ponted red hat. But the interesting part was the other card.
With the holographic stadiums in the real world, most equipment magic cards simply did their effects without showing any real change in the monsters. However, in this realm, it was not the case. A beautiful woman, though green-skinned, with a strange third eye, appeared. Wearing only a strange necklace and two "strategic" globs of dark energy, she vanished, and in her place the Mystical Sand changed, her green hair growing slightly darker, the necklace wrapped around her neck, her clothes becoming slightly more revealing, and the same dark energy surrounding her.
"Whoa, cool!" Lara said, liking the idea. [Drake:?!]
The Mystical Sand actually smiled, showing slight fangs that probably hadn't been there before.
Gaia, on the other hand, had his mouth about as low as Joey's currently was, except that Mai and Tea weren't about to kill him.
"Now, Mystical Sand, "Lara said, smiling," Seductive Shadow Sand Shot!"
The strengthened sorceress pointed her finger toward Gaia, and what looked like dark, liquid sand fired toward him.
"Your attack activates my Spell-binding Circle!" Yugi said. The said Circle appeared, nullifying the attack and ensnaring the Mystical Sand, at the same time illuminating and dispelling the darkness around her. 2100/1800
"Now, Gaia, Speed Charge Attack!"
"I activate Waboku!" Lara said as the knight plunged forward.
The three robed warderesses appeared, forcing Gaia back.
"Maybe it's not so boring after all." Joey said.
"The monsters really look a lot more life-like."Tea said.
"And Yugi's doing better than I thought." Yami said appreciatively. "But it still feels strange being on the sidelines."
"Get used to it, pal." Tristan mumbled.
"Ok, I summon Dark Elf, in attack mode!" Lara called out. 2000/800
The Dark Elf was the counterpart to the Mystical Elf. The only real differences were its puple hair and tan skin.
"I also play Shadow Spell, bring Gaia 700 lower!" 1600/2100
Like in Kaiba's duel with Pegasus, magical chains appeared, wrapping themselves around Gaia.
"Now, attack Gaia!"
A wave of Dark Energy was unleashed, and this time Gaia was destroyed.
"Good move!" Yugi said happily. LP:1600
"Thanks!" Lara said, using a cute grin.
"Now, I put one card facedown, and I'll summon Dark Magician, and attack!" 2500/2100
The famous Spellcastor appeared, and blasted its own energy.
The Dark Elf struggled slightly against the flow, but in vain.
"Ouch," Lara groaned slightly. LP: 1500
The Dark Magician sent a humored smirk, and swirled his staff a little.
"Careful, Lara." Drake advised slightly. " Remember, the Mystical Sand is still on the field, too."
"I know." Lara said smiling." But I'm not too worried. I play the Cosmo Queen!"
The card appeared, and the audience was slightly shocked. The Cosmo Queen was tall and thin, wearing a long, brown robe. Her gray skin was surrounded by glowing green energy, and her grape-shaped head held a large, horn-like crown. Her stats were 2900/2400.
"And also, I use Book of Secret Arts, to power her up by 300!"
3200/2700
The book appeared in the Cosmo Queen's hands, who in turn aimed it toward the Magician.
"Ok, Cosmo Queen!" Lara said," Extraterrestrial Beam!"
From the book, a large laser of rainbow-colored light emerged.
"Another trap, Lara!" Yugi said." Mirror Force!"
The mirror-like wall appeared in front of the Dark Magician, and with a wave of his staff, it was sent back.
Lara watched in dismay as both her Mystical Sand and Cosmo Queen were destroyed. LP:400
[Wow, even without Yami, Yugi's still great!] Lara thought in surprise.
*What did you expect?* Her own yami sent to her.*A duelists skills are relavent to his dark side's. Though he may make more mistakes, Yugi is every bit as good a duelist as Yami.*
"I put one card facedown, and another monster in defense." Lara said.
"Then I'll bring out Curse of Dragon, in attack mode!" Yugi said.[2000/1500] "And revive Gaia with Monster Reborn!"
The Knight reappeared, exactly were he was first destroyed.
"Then that means-" Lara started.
"Exactly." Yugi said." I'm using Polymerization, to fuse Gaia and my Curse of Dragon, into Gaia the Dragon Champion!" 2600/2100
"Finally, I'll attack with him! Dragon Lance Strike!"
The newly created Dragon Champion plunged forward with his right lance, slashing the Goddess of Whim.
"Sorry, Yugi!" Lara said happily."My Goddess of Whim's effect allows me to draw an extra card from my deck, making my chances of coming back from behing higher!"
"And that also gives me more confidence to play this! I'll summon Dark Magician Girl, in attack mode!"
The Dark Magician Girl appeared on the field. Mostly the female counterpart to the Dark Magician, she wore slightly less armor and had a small wand with a wing-like symbol. Her large boots looked a bit awkward, but the likely intended desire would be for anyone looking at them to look a few inches up, which would make most men open for attack as they tried to keep their drool from drowning the earth.[AN: Just a personal opinion, if you're wondering.]
The Dark Magician suddenly took this time to examine the ground very intently, trying to hide his face, which a few more shades might make match his face.
"Not interesting, eh?" Tea said, enjoying the looks of disbelief on the men's faces. Drake decided he might as well just turn around for the remainder of the duel; he had the strange idea that Lara had built her deck solely to have this effect.
"Her stats are raised by 300 because of the Dark Magician, and my newly flipped Cyber Shield will boost her attack another 500!" Lara said. 2800/2000
The metal suit replaced the DMG's soft, clinging tunic. While the shape wasn't too different, the slight cut in the center was enough too make the Dark Magician forget about the ground, and join Joey in the mouth-dropping competition.
[AN: This is a very fun chapter to right. Maybe Lara should duel more often. *Fails to see the blushing Drake aim a few highly-payed lawyers at him*]
"Dark Magician Girl, attack Gaia!"
The DMG raised her wand, and in a flurry of pink, heart-like blasts, Gaia was gone.
The DMG then took the brief oppurtunity to wink at the DM, which made the normally stony spellcastor blush even further.
"My brother would kill for this inspiration." Mokuba said happily, catching a glimpse from under Tea's concealing hand.
[AN: Don't know why she's covering his eyes. With a brother that rich, the kid's bound to be exposed sooner or later. *Puts up large shield as swarms of mad Kaiba fans rush with sickles and torches.* I really need to stop this.]
"Well, I must say that was brilliant, Lara." Yugi admitted.
LP: 1300." But now I ready the finishing move. I play one card facedown, and Celtic Guardian in attck mode." 1400/1200.
"What's Yugi thinking?" Joey asked aloud as the elf with a blade appeared on the field."That move would end the duel on Lara's next attack!"
The DMG had a puzzled look on her face too, which seemed to make the CG's eyes pop slightly; He had to dig his sword into the ground to keep from jumping at the hot sorceress.
"I think you might actually have won this duel, Yugi," Lara said." But I'm not making it that easy. I'll just play a Rose Whip, so next turn I can cope with whatever you send at me!"
A whip made of roses and thorns appeared in the DMG's free hand. 3100/2300
The DMG suddenly looked at the whip, then at her Cyber Shield armor, then at the DM. An evil smile similier to the ones Lara used crept on her face. The DM collapsed; his face had reached a breaking point. The Celtic Guardian let loose more drool, then readied himself.
"That pervert." Joey said, causing sweatdrops to come from Mai and Tea.
"Can you blame him?"Ryo asked, suddenly remembering another hot, yet incredibly dangerous girl, who had caused him much pain.
"That's just what I hoped you would do, Lara, because if you had attacked, this duel would be over." Yugi said.
"Huh?!" Lara said, confused.
"My hidden card is the most powerful and useful of my deck. I hope you have good insurance, cause this is gonna hurt!" Yugi said, his face determined.
"I flip over the Dark Magic Ritual!"
The crowd gasped as the DM and CG were swept away by two pillars of dark magic, and in their place-
"Introducing, the Magician of Black Chaos!" 2800/2600
The Magician of Black Chaos was very intimidating, indeed. Clad in full-body leather, with long, uncontrollable black hair, blue skin, and a scepter to make the DM cry, he stood poised for battle.
"As unbeleivable cool as it is, what do you mean that will end the duel?" Lara asked."My DMG is still at 3400/2700 now, meaning it's 600 higher than your Chaos Mage."
The DMG, hearts in her eyes, nodded all the same.
"Not when I play this magic card, Living Arrow!" Yugi proclaimed."It allows me to use one card you've put on the field, and I chose, Shadow Spell!"
The arrow shot toward the DMG, and just before it struck, it transformed into the same binding chains that had held Gaia.
2700/2300
The hearts dissapeared from the DMG, who looked down in shock.
"And also, I'll equip my own Book of Secret Arts to him, making his stats 3100/2900, just enough to end this duel!"
"Now, Magician of Black Chaos!" Yugi called." Chaos Scepter Blast!"
The Chaos Mage, blushing purple slightly[blue skin, duh!] swung his scepter in the air, then shot a large orb of black power toward the DMG.
The female mage dissapered in the darkness, and the duel ended.
********************************************************"Good duel, Yugi!" Lara said as she put up her deck.
"You too, Lara." Yugi said."You almost had me!"
"That was remarkable, Yugi!" Yami said, smiling."I'm very proud of you."
Yugi blushed slighty as he grinned, hand over his back in typical anime fashion.
"Next up is me and Joey." Drake said, getting out his cards." You ready?"
"I sure am!" Joey said, an expectant look on his face."
"What, a tournament without me in it? Who forgot the invites?"
The group, shocked, turned around to see the owner of this new voice. Who they found was.......
********************************************************
AN: And they all fall of the cliff! hanger..... WHATEVA!
Next up, reunions, both unpleasant and happy, and revelations, most of them bad.
As usual, I'll let the reviewers try to guess who the person is. Of course, there's no way in heck anyone can guess, since only one person besides me knows him or her[Lyz, you are forbidden to guess.]
That's all for now, keep r'n'r ing, and pray FFN doesn't fall to pieces very much more!
