Part IV: Go! Red-eyes! The great battle of the dark dragons!

A room of the castle, Maximillion Pegasus I looking at a screen with a cup of wine in his left hand.One of is guards is standing near

Pegasus: So, Crocket, how are the things in the tournament right now? Has any participant qualified yet?

Crocket: Well. Yes, There's a duelist called Mai Valentine who has got 15 star chips right now. Then we have got Joey Wheeler, 13 star chips and Yugi Moto, 11 star chips.

Pegasus: And who has got more that 5 star chips?

Crocket: Five more people. Bandit Keith has just earned the ninth star chip; Rex Raptor and Mako Tsunami have got five star chips each. However they are dueling now for all their star chips, it seems.

Pegasus: And the other two?

Crocket: Well. Xavier Knight and Ryo Hazuki, with 7 star chips each.

Pegasus: So. we'll have about seven participants in the finals. I wonder where can I find the eighth. But Yugi. the time of our battle approaches.

*meanwhile*

Knight is now looking at his deck, thinking.

Knight: Why. why did I have to tie. with Ryo? My deck is better that his. but how could he force a tie.?

At the same time, a group of duelists that is walking to Pegasus's castle appears.

Knight. More duelists. well. I need more star chips so let's duel! I'll go near them.

Knight stands up and goes near the group. However when he's getting near, Knight notices something.

Knight: I can't believe it! Yugi Moto and his group! Of all the duelists of this island I have found the only one who has got a possibility of beating me. but. I'll talk to them. Maybe I can duel one of the others.

Meanwhile, Yugi and Joey are talking.

Joey: 13 star chips! I don't believe it! And I have earned great cards! Don't you think, Yugi?

Yugi: Well. Joey, you have played in an incredible way till now. But you shouldn't think everything is done. We have got still to play the finals.

Joey: We'll duel in the final round! Nobody can oppose your deck or mine, now that I have added the Red-Eyes and the Monster Reborn!

Tristan and Tea: Joey, it is not going to be that easy and.

Knight: Hello, Yugi Moto.

Everybody: Who.. who are you?

Knight: Call me Knight. There's no need for you to introduce yourselves. Yugi Moto. the duelist who beat Kaiba. Tristan, Tea and Bakura. And Joey Wheeler.. Yugi's pet duelist.

Joey: Who are you calling a pet??

Knight: You! I know you just play the duels Yugi finds too easy for him, and he still tells you how to play! I would call that a pet.

Joey: You. big.

Yugi: Calm down, Joey!

Joey: How about shutting your mouth, Knight?

Knight: And how about a little duel, Joey?

Joey: I've got 13 star chips so I don't need to.

Knight: That means you are a big coward. Well. so how about 3 star chips.? You aren't betting anything important. with 10 star chips you are qualified.

Joey: I won't.

Knight: And I will add this little card, called the Lord of Darkness. Win me and it is yours.

Yugi: Joey, you.

Joey: All right! I'll show why you shouldn't insult Joey Wheeler!

Knight: Then, to the field!

They all go to a near field. When they arrive, they all get is position.

Knight: Here we go! You start!

Joey: Rude Kaiser. go!

Knight: What a coincidence! I set a card face down and play another Rude Kaiser!

Joey: Ha! Then I put another card face down and summon Garoozis!

Knight: Shadow of the Void! Go! (1700/0)

Joey: What are you thinking of, Knight? I attack your little shadow with Garoozis and.

Yugi: Joey, don't do that!

Knight: Too late! I trigger Spellbinding Circle! And because it is a card that your master Yugi usually plays, I won't repeat what it does (Garoozis´s attack decreases to 1500) and now. I attack your Garoozis with the Shadow of the Void!

Knight: 2000 Joey: 1800

Knight: And now, its attack is 1900! So I cast Dark Berserker! It attacks again! your Kaiser is dead!

Knight: 2000 Joey: 1700

Knight: And Shadow of the Void grows more.

Joey. I play the Time Wizard!

Knight: A typical novice strategy. leaving all to Lady Luck.

Joey: Time Wizard! Time Roulette! (go, don't stop in a skull, don't stop in a skull, don't.) Great! Your creatures are dead! Ha!

Knight: Good for you. Curse of Dragon! I attack your little Wizard!

Joey: I trigger Nail Trap hole! Your Curse of Dragon is destroyed and you lose 25% of its attack.

Knight: 1500 Joey: 1700

Joey: And now, in my turn, I summon the Baby Dragon! Then I use the Time wizard to turn him into the almighty Thousand Dragon (2400)!!!

Knight: it seems you need a lesson! I cast the Red-Eyes Black Dragon (2400) now our attacks are tied

Joey: no, they aren't! I use the Nails of Dragon! Now my Thousand Dragon has got 3200 attack points! I strike your little Red Eyes with his earth breath!

Knight: nooo!

Knight: 700 Joey: 1700

Knight: I set a monster.

Joey: and I kill him!

Knight: Poor Snake Hair. I just need a card to finish you, Joey.

Joey: Stop bluffing, Knight! You are almost out!

Yugi:(he's right, but he shouldn't think he has won. I've heard about this Knight guy. He's really good if what I have heard is true.)

Knight: *draws* well, it is not what I needed, but it is still a great card! I play Monster Reborn to bring back the Red-Eyes! And now I play Polymerization to form the Dark Dragon Knight (3400/200)

Joey: Not a bad move! But I play Dark Hole!

Yugi: (what is Joey doing? He has destroyed his own Thousand Dragon to kill the Dragon knight.)

Joey: And then I play the red-Eyes Black Dragon!! And put a card face-down! What are you going to do now???

Knight: easy. I play Pot of greed! And now. this three cards! Heavy Storm, red-eyes Black Dragon and Nails of Dragon!!!

Joey: Nooooo! You have destroyed my trap.

Knight: I know. and I destroy your Red-Eyes with my powered up dragon!!

Knight: 700 Joey: 900

Joey: How can you have two red-eyes??? It is a really rare card!!

Knight: I have got 3 of them, in fact.

Joey: *draws* great! I put a card face down and I cast Monster Reborn! Your own Dark Dragon Knight is now mine!!!

Knight: My red-eyes's attack is now 3700, fool!

Joey: What a big error. I have lost! I have lost!

Knight: Do you think I'm idiot Joey? I'm not going to attack you! That is a trap for sure!! I'll just put a card face down!

Joey Well. you got me so. I won't do anything this turn. But if I draw the Kunai with Chain you will be dead!!

Knight: oh yes, I think you will do something this turn!

Joey: why?

Knight: because I activate my trap! The almighty Word of Command!!!!

Yugi: Noooo! How can he have that card????

Joey: What's the matter, Yugi? It can't be that powerful.

Yugi: it is! That card lets him to take control of your hand and cards in your turn by skipping his next turn!!!!!

Joey: What???????

Knight: Exactly what your master has said! I control you now! So I play Sword & Shield from your hand!!!

Joey: Noooo! Now my monster is a 200/3400

Knight: Yes! And mine is a 2000/3700 so! Dark Dragon Knight! Attack the Red- eyes!!!!!! What a pity is has got just 200 of attack, because your Dark Dragon Knight dies and you lose 1700 LPs!!!

Knight: 700 Joey: 0

Joey: No!!! I can't believe. this.

Knight: I have got 10 star chips now!!! So I don't need you anymore!!! Goodbye Yugi!!! And goodbye Yugi's pet!!!!!!! See you at Pegasus's castle!

Joey: .

Knight leaves and disappears from Yugi's sight soon.

Bakura: Yugi.

Yugi: What is it Bakura?

Bakura: My Ring. was pointing at him. he has got a millennium item!!!

--meanwhile--

Rex: Serpent Night Dragon!!! Attack the Fisherman!!!!

Rex: 300 Mako: 0

Rex: Great!!! 10 star chips!!!! Now I'm gonna finish you, Knight!

--Meanwhile--
