Chapter 17
Kenta nervously drew his opening hand. Raven drew his, unworried.
"I'll let you go first"said Raven.
Kenta looked through his hand.
"I discard a card so I can play Mechenarimon"
After a bright flash of light, Mechenarimon made his appearance on the field.
"Too predictable"thought Raven.
"I play Veemon. Attack now"
"Did you leave you glasses at home, Veemon's too weak"said Kenta.
Veemon was shattered as he headbutted Mechenarimon.
Kenta:100
Kenta drew.
"I'll play another digimon, DarkGatomon"
Now Kenta had 2 champions on the field.
Raven drew.
"I'll play a slightly stroner Rockmon. Destroy DarkGatomon"
"Uh uh, the option card Metal attack will raise DarkGatomon's power by 50 points, just enough to take out your Digi wannabe"
Rockmon shattered at impact.
Kenta:200
"I'll play Gommamon, then the card counter attack. Now let's see DarkGatomon face this"
Gommamon slashes through DarkGatomon with his claw.
Raven:200
"Now you're gonna get it. I play Ultimate Digivolution, digivolving Mechenarimon to CyberDramon. Attack with Erase claw"
Gommamon was slashed through.
Kenta:300
"I play Patamon, with another counter attack"
"Not this time, I evade your option card with Fatal error"
Patamon was destroyed.
Kenta:400
Kenta drew.
"Now I play Ultimate Digivolution again, digivolving CyberDramon to MachineDramon"
Kenta:700
Raven drew.
"All I can do is play this, Leechmon"
Leechmon was a Rookie level.
"MachineDramon, attack"
MachineDramon blasted Leechmon away.
Kenta:800 **********************************************
"Kenta's doing WAY better then me"thought Kazu. *********************************************
Tai finally made it outside the tournament arena. He was able to get in when he told them he was a relative of Kari.
"I've got to warn her, but I better catch my breath first"thought Tai. ***********************************************
Kazu's jaw dropped as Leechmon reformed, and attached to MachineDramon.
"Oh no, my Digimon's infected"gasped Kenta.
"Hm hm. Who ever said it was your Digmon who was infected, It's your score"
"WHAT"
"Allow me to explain Leechmon's effect. When he's destroyed, he attaches himself to the Digimon that destroyed him. Every turn, 200 of your points will go to me"
"THere must be a way to get rid of that thing"
"The only way to get rid of Leechmon is to discard the card it's attached to. The only way to do that is to Digivolve it"
"But my Digimon is fully Digivolved"
"Yes, while his effect won't work until next turn, it'll still prove to be effective"said Raven. *************************************************
Kazu sighed with relief.
"Good, I can still laugh at Kenta"he thought. ************************************************
The docotr stepped out, Takato was waiting.
"Well"asked Takato.
"Nothing to worry about he's just exhausted, that's all. I've phoned his parents, they'll be here to pick him up"
"That's good, thanks doc"said Takato running off.
"I have to make it back in time"thought Takato"I just hope Kenta can drag the match" ***************************************************
"Man, Raven's good, he suckered Kenta into that"said Kari.
"It's not just that, look at his deck"
Kari watched closely, and knew what T.K meant.
"That thing's huge"
"He dosen't even need to gain 1,000 points to win, he can just make his opponent draw out"
"Does that mean there's no hope"
"No, there's always hope Kari, we'll find a way"he said.
"Kari"
"Tai"
"Tai?"asked T.K.
"Kari, listen, I've got bad news. That guy's taken over Rika, and caused her to run away"
"No, Rika, Snave's got her"
"Who's Rika"
"I'll explain later. Tai, listen, I have to stay for my match, you'll have to find her"said Kari.
"Okay, wish me luck"said Tai running out.
************************************************
Kenta drew.
"I pass this turn"
Kenta:600 Raven:400
"Now it's my turn, I play Vilemon, with the rare Destruction card. This makes the power of your Digimon 0"
"What, but destroying it will get rid of Leechmon's effect"
"I don't need it anymore, Now Vilemon, crush him"
Vilemon sent a loud screech, which blasted Machinedramon away.
Raven:700
Kenta drew.
"Prepare to meet your maker. Wizardmon, attack"
"I don't think so, Option card Darkness Mist. This saves Viruse Digimon, and duoble's their score when they win"
"But he can't"
"With this he can, Goliath"
"NO"
"My deck is full of rar cards, now Vilemon, finish him off"
Raven:1,000
"The winner is Raven"
Rave snickered.
"Well that was was a nice warm up"said Raven exiting. **********************************************
"YEAH! I've been waiting all day to rub it in your face"said Kazu.
"C'mon, leave me alone"said Kenta.
"Now for the last match, the winner will get a bye to the final. Kari Vs Kaizer"
"Go get him Kari, I know you can beat him"said T.K.
"Well, this should be amusing"said Kaiser.
He walked off.
"I know I can do this"thought Kari"The odds are against me. But I have to find a way, for my mom. This one's for you Mom, I won't let you down, I swear it"
With a look of detirmination, Kari entered the elevator bravely.
Raven took his seat.
"Poor Snave"he thought"He is unaware that I now have possesion of Rika, but it dosen't matter. I'm unsure oif what he wants with Rika, but whatever it is, he can't do it now"
