Episode 9: The Darkness Begins
===================
As he watches the duel between Dark Yugi and Dark Joey, Malik is thinking about Yugi's duel tactics. But he has other things to worry about, such as the duel against Dark Mai. Malik then used his Millenium Rod to turn into Dark Malik, a more sinister version of himself. Dark Malik took his control off of Mai, but Mai was left with painful thoughts, and she stayed as Dark Mai. Using his Millenium Rod, Dark Malik searched the castle for what he was searching for... He vanished into the dark corridors of the Duel Arena, telling Croquet he would be back for his duel. At the duel, Dark Joey and Dark Yugi are talking to one another about why they came to Duelist Kidngom, but Dark Joey cut it short by telling Yugi to continue with the duel. Dark Joey then played the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, with Dragon Nails, raising his attack power by 300. Dark Joey then ordered for an attack with his Red-Eyes. With a little fireball, Black Magician disappeared, and Yugi's life points were reduced to 1800. Joey was leading with only 100 life points ahead of Yugi. Dark Malik had more evil intentions, as he searched the castle... He finally found it. The vault of darkness. He knew Pegasus kept it for his evil mind. Dark Malik cut the door open with his Rod, and what was inside was unexpected to Dark Malik. It was full of dead carcasses, and a stench was released. Dark Malik then opened a portal to the Shadow Realm inside, and it extended everywhere in the castle, turning Pegasus's castle into a portal to the Shadow Realm. Once he was done, he went back to the Duel Arena. He saw that Joey had eliminated Black Magician, and it is now Yugi's turn.
"You might have defeated by Black Magician... but you will see something even more impressive! I summon Sumoned Skull to the field, and I play Re-Copy on your Red-Eyes Black Dragon! Now, I use Polymerization to fuse them together, creating Black Demon's Dragon!" announced Dark Yugi.
Dark Joey was trembling, as he watched Black Demon's Dragon kill off his Red-Eyes Black Dragon. Dark Joey was left with 1400 life points, and Yugi with 1800. Joey was facing danger in its eye, and then he plays a card facedown on the field, along with Axe Raider in attack mode. The Shadow Realm portal finally reached the Duel Arena, bringing everything to the Shadow Realm. The creatures then became even more real, and it now took off life points when you summon a monster to the field, just as Dark Malik had intended. Dark Yugi nor Dark Joey minded. Dark Yugi then played Beta the Magnet Warrior, but summoning it to the field decreased Yugi's life points to 1600. Dark Yugi ordered for an attack with his Black Demon's Dragon on Dark Joey's Axe Raider. Dark Joey however gladly activated Mirror Force. At the activation of Mirror Force, Joey's life points decreased to 1300. Then Dark Joey played Deck Research, and at the sight of the card, Dark Yugi's spirit was broken. Deck Research stated, "Take a look at your opponent's deck. Choose and discard 1 card. You must skip your Battle Phase this turn." Dark Joey was looking through Dark Yugi's deck, and came upon The God of Sky Dragon - Osiris. Dark Joey decided to discard it. Dark Joey didn't attack, as Deck Research prevented his Battle Phase from happening. Dark Yugi played Jar of Greed, and then he played Raise Dead on Osiris. Osiris entered the arena, and t drained Yugi's life points down to 600. Dark Yugi had 4 cards at hand, making Osiris's attack 4000. Dark Joey quivered at the enormous size of Osiris.
"So, Osiris..." said Dark Joey.
Dark Yugi asked, "I believe you have seen it in combat before?"
"Yes..." replied Dark Joey.
Dark Yugi: I cannot attack, because it was a Special Summon, take your turn, but next time, your done with!
Dark Joey drew a card, and it was what he needed. It was one of the ante-God cards the GHOULs slipped into his deck. Dark Joey revealed the card... Declaration of Impeachment. Declaration of Impeachment stated, "If your opponent has a God Card in play, you may summon one God Card of your choice to the field. You do not have to have the card in your deck to summon it. Your opponent must skip his next Battle Phase." Through the card's effect, Dark Joey summoned the Immense Soldier of Obelisk into play. This reduced Joey's Life Points to 300. Dark Yugi wa shaken. He did not know how all the duelists he had faced could possibly have Immense Soldier of Obelisks. He aked how had given it to him, but Dark Joey did not answer. Dark Yugi then drew a card, raising Osiris's attack to 5000. However, through Declaration of Impeachment, Dark Yugi must skip his Battle Phase for one turn. Dark Malik was watching every move, watching Yugi's strategy. How will this duel end? And what will the beginning of Mai vs. Malik look like? Will it be a "One-Hit Kill"? Tune in next time!
