Episode 12: The Return of the Dead
===================
Staring death in the face, Dark Yugi grinned. He dared Malik to attack him. Dark Malik was shocked, as one mere shot from both monsters will send him down to the magma. Dark Yugi didn't seem to care, and he laughed. It seemed to Pegasus and the others that Dark Yugi has lost his mind. Dark Malik attacked him using a combination attack named Two-God Phoenix Punch. A special combo only used by Ra and Obelisk. Yugi's life points were inciderated to 0. Dark Malik had thought he had won, but it seemed that Dark Yugi's life points went back to 6000. Dark Yugi revealed that he had Return of the Dead - Curse in his Hand at the time he lost his life points. Dark Yugi explained the card, and it stated that if this card is in your Hand when your life points reach 0, increase your life points to the amount before you lost that amount. Dark Malik was shocked, and Dark Yugi took his turn. Dark Yugi played Raise Dead on one of Dark Malik's Slime, and then he sacrificed it for Osiris the Sky of God Dragon. Yugi had five cards at Hand, but then he played Pot of Greed, and letting him draw 2 cards, increasing Osiris's attack to 6000. Dark Yugi placed one card facedown on the field, and Dark Yugi ordered for an attack on Obelisk. Dark Malik's life points were reduced to 5000. Dark Malik counter-attcked by playing the Insomnia, taking three cards from Yugi's Hand at random, in exchange for his Battle Phase. But the next move terrored Dark Yugi's strategy, Dark Malik played: The Invincible Warrior by sacrificing the newly created Slime. The Invincible Warrior had 2400 attack, and it cannot be attacked by any other monster in exchange for 1500 life points every time it attacks.It can attack the opponent directly! Dark Malik also activated the Cylindrical Box, every time he lost life points, he gains twice the amount. This was it, Dark Yugi thought, he was done for. Since he had to skip his battle phase, he did so. Dark Yugi counted on the next card, and it could be his last. Dark Yugi drew, and he drew the only card in his deck that could stop Dark Malik in his tracks.

"What is it Yugi? Are you done for?" asked Dark Malik.
Yugi replied, "Not quite... You see, the card I hold in my hand will turn this duel around!"
"What?!" said Dark Malik.
Dark Yugi announced his move, "I sacrifice half of my life points for... Switched Universes!"
"No!" Dark Malik yelled.

Switched Universes stated that the players must exchange everything on the field with your opponent, monsters, magic/trap cards, except for their decks or Graveyards. All of the monsters and cards on the field shifted to the other side, all of Dark Yugi's cards went to Dark Malik's control, and vice-versa. Dark Yugi now had 3000 life points, and Dark Malik with 5000. Dark Yugi had Ra on the field, and Dark Malik on the ropes. Dark Yugi played Coins of Hope, he must skip his Battle Phase, in order for Dark Malik to lose 2000 life points. Dark Malik went down to 3000. Both of them were getting nearer to the magma, and the temperature was getting higher. Dark Malik's sweatdrop fell from his face, and touched the magma. A loud hiss was heard throughout the stadium. Dark Yugi attacked Dark Malik with the Invincible Warrior. Dark Malik lost 2400 life points, leaving him with 600, while Yugi gained 3000.

"No..." said Dark Malik.
"Take your final turn Malik, let's see how good you are!" Dark Yugi ordered.
Dark Malik annonced, "Of course... I play the Graveyard Digger!"
"Huh?" asked Yugi.
"The Graveyard Digger let's me take one card from your Graveyard and put it in my Hand." explained Dark Malik.
"What good will that do?" asked Yugi again.
"You see, my plan is very easy, I choose Return of the Dead - Curse!" Dark Malik stated.

Dark Malik held the Return of the Dead - Curse card high. Then, Dark Malik activated Dark Revival, letting him take Obelisk back to his field. He ended his turn, in hopes that Yugi will attack him.Dark Yugi took his turn, and he did as what was expected, he placed one card facedown, and a Slime was placed. He ended his turn, with no attack. Dark Malik revealed his plan, and how he will win. He actually didn't want Dark Yugi to attack him, and he said it was all part of the Master Plan.

"You fool, now you have led me to victory!" said Dark Malik.
Dark Yugi, "Huh?!"
"I will take it step-by-step for you." said Dark Malik.
