Chapter 35

"Yugi!"gasped Joey.

"Yugi, no!"yelled Tea.

"Unfourtanate really. But it's not like he had a chance"said Noah.

"This ain't over yet Noah. You still got me to go through"said Joey.

"Man, you guys never quit do you? Very well, but this is it. After this there are no more chances Joey. I'll agree to let you duel me, if you agree not to play Winged Dragon of Ra!"

"Fine Noah, I won't need it to beat you"said Joey placing his deck down.

"Then let's continue. It's your move Joey!"

Noah:4100 Joey:100

Joey drew his cards.

"I'll place one card face down, and Tiny Guardian in defence mode. It's your move"said Joey.

Noah drew.

"Very well Joey, I play Return of the Doomed. It allows me to bring back 1 monster from my graveyard, I pick Cyber Tech Alligator"

"I better build up my attack force just in case his face down card's a trap"thought Noah.

"Next I play Call of the Haunted, to bring back Vampire Lord, which means to win you'll have to come through 2 of my chief monsters!"

"Grr"

"Now Vampire Lord's special ability will bring Back Cosmo Queen!"

"Oh man! His forces are really building up"thought Joey.

"Look at him, his forces are practicly impenitrable!"gasped Tea.

"Beat him Joey! You've never let anyone down before, and I know you won't now!"said Serenity.

"Now I play Monster Reborn, to revive Summoned Skull. Now I have 5 monsters out! Vampire Lord, attack his Tiny Guardian!"

His Tiny Guardian was obliterated.

"Gemni Elf, attack him directly and end this duel!"

"NO!"gasped Serenity.

"Joey!"

When the smoke cleared, 3 skapegaots were covering the field.

"What?!"gasped Noah.

"I activated my face down card just in time. SkapeGoat will protect my lifepoints!"said Joey.

"Not for long, Cosmo Queen, Cyber Tech Alligator, and Summoned Skull, attack his SkapeGoats!"

"He wiped me clean!"thought Joey.

"In one turn, Noah wiped out all of Joey's defences!"said Tea.

"You obliterated my entire field!"gasped Joey.

"I did more then that Joey"said Noah.

"Tea!"gasped Serenity.

Joey looked up, Tea had been turned to stone.

"What's the deal!"said Joey.

"It's simple, I've added a special stipulation when Yugi tookkaiba's place. Every time my turn ends, someone will be turned to stone random;y. Which means if you don't win in the next 2 turns, you're done! Assuming of course you aren;t turned to stone next. To be safe, I've made it so that I can NEVER be turned to stone, so only you and your sister reamin"

"You creep!"said Joey slamming his fist.

"Well Joey, it's your turn! SO make it!"said Noah.

Joey drew.

"First I place one card face down, then a monster in defence mode!"

"How sad, it's my move Joey. Now I'm going to secure my victory"

"What?"

"I sacrafice Cyber Tech Alligator, Summoned Skull, and Gemni Elf to raise my lifepoints even higher!"

Noah:110000

"His lifepoints are off the charts!"thought Joey.

"Now Zera, attack his defence card!"

"It dosen't matter who I attack with, he only has 100 lifepoints leaft so Vampire Lord will finish things off"thought Noah. ******************************************************

"They never know when to quit, do they? But who cares, it'll all be over soon" ******************************************************

"Show no mercy Zera!"said Noah.

"Sorry Noah, but you just made your biggest mistake!"

"What!?"gasped Noah.

"Activate the trap card, Magic Arm Shield!"

"What is that!"

"Magic Arm Shield will block your attack with one of your own monsters"

"No!"

"It's funny how friends can be so quick to turn, isn't it Noah?"

The Vampire Lord was obliterated.

Noah:102000

"No big deal. I still have Zera. Now, since my turn's over, one of you are about to join the stoneage, literaly"

"Noah! Stop this now!"demanded Joey.

"Too late, the victim's been chosen"said Noah.

Joey looked up, Serenity was a stone statue.

"Darn you Noah! That's it, I'm going to end this duel right now!"said Joey drawing.

"Yes! I summon Bay Dragon, in attack mode!"

It had an ATK of 1200 and DEF of 600.

"What? Is that supposed to be a serious move?"asked Noah.

"Oh yeah, especialy when I play the Time Wizard!"

"No freaking way, where did he get such a rare card!"thought Noah.

The spinner spun fast, as both preyed the exact opposite of what the other wanted.

"Not a skull!"

"Not a time machine!"

The spinner stopped dead on a time machine.

"NO!"

"Allright! Go Time Warp!"

Zera:1250

"That's not all, now my baby dragon has morphed into Thousand Dragon!"

It had an ATK of 2400 and DEF of 2000.

"Since Zera's your chief monster, you're history! Thousand Dragon, attack!"

Everyone who was turned to stone changed back to normal as Zera was obliterated comepletely from the field.

"Hey, we're back!"said Tea.

"What happened?"asked Kaiba.

"Seto!"said Mokuba running up to Kaiba.

"Mokuba!"said Kaiba hugging him.

"Looks like Mokuba's back to normal. Allright Noah, take us home like you promised!"said Joey.

"Fine"said Noah.

"I don't think so Noah!"

Everyone turned as from the shadows stepped a man with an Orange Tuxedo and Grey hair stepped out(NOT PEGASUS!)

"Oh great, whos' this freak!"demanded Joey.

Kaiba growled.

"Now Set, is that any way to greet your father?"he asked.

Yugi and the others gasped, turning towards Kaiba.

"Adopted" father"retorted Kaiba.

"I still took you in didn't I? You've turned out just as I hoped you would. You have rid yourself of all these childish thoughts of games that are pure and fun"he said.

"Just shut up you! For what you've done, I'm ready to break you in 2!"said Kaiba.

"What's your name?"asked Joey.

"Call me Gozabora, after all that's my name"he said.

"Look,we beat Noah, we the right to leave"said Yugi.

"I'm sorry, I, failed"said Noah.

"I'll punish you once I'm through here. Joey, in order to leave you'll have to defeat me in a duel!"said Gozabora.

"No Gozabora, WE'RE going to duel"said Kaiba.

"You, duel me?"

"Yes, it's time we settled the score"said Kaiba.

"Very well then kaiba, you and I will duel, but I warn you Kaiba. This will be a duel to the finish, and only one of us will leave this world!"
