Chapter #20: Final Showdown (III) Into the Eye of the Storm
*~*~*Reader's POV*~*~*
[Oh no.] Elaya thought. [If she's Kaiba, that means she has his deck! And that means that she has his Blue Eyes White Dragon!]
"Surprised to see me?" Dieen said, mocking Kaiba's voice. "I'll draw, and play Swords of Revealing Light along with Jam Breeding Machine!" At that moment, Dieen turned into Yami Marik then back to Kaiba.
The swords came down on Elaya's two monsters not allowing them to attack.
"Now, as you know, Jam Breeding Machine makes me one slime token for every turn-and that'll be three slime tokens away until I unleash my most powerful dragon!" When Dieen ended her turn, a tiny blue ball popped out of the machine.
It was the real Kaiba who began to worry. [Elaya only thinks that I have one Blue Eyes......but Dieen knows that I have three. But what if Dieen uses my Crush Card combo?]
Elaya drew her next card. [Pixie!] She was happy know, knowing that she could use Elegant Egotist-when she draws it-and summon her Storm Sister with one of the remaining monsters on the field. Trap Hole, Monster Reborn, Kuriboh, Storm Sister, and a Pixie. She then began to formulate a plan. And she would need three turns and the right cards to do it.
"I end my turn."
"Whatever. Jam Breeding Machine, make me another Slime Token!" A second blue ball appeared. She drew a card and saw that it was the dragon that she was waiting for. [Perfect.]
Elaya drew her next card. [Please, let it be the card!] She opened her eyes slowly to see that she had drawn Elegant Egotist. [YES!] She was ecstatic, but knew that it would take two more cards. "I'll play one card face down and summon Pixie! (1450/1100)"
"But remember, you can't attack yet!" Dieen said with a mocking tone.
"I know that." Dieen drew her next card. [Huh. Interesting.] It was the Lord of Dragons. She realized that she had Pot of Greed in her hand and decided to use it.
"First, I use Pot of Greed to draw two extra cards." And those two cards were the exact ones she wanted. [Perfect. Elaya won't know what hit here. Literally.] "And now, I summon Lord of Dragons (1200/1100) in defence mode...and I place two cards face down." Those face down cards were Flute of Summoning Dragon and Mind Control. Dieen knew that her Swords wore off on her next turn so if Elaya tried to attack her Tokens, she would spring Mind Control on her and then sacrifice them all to summon Kaiba's Blue Eyes. Then, she would use the Flute and the Lord of Dragons to summon the other two dragons riding in Kaiba's deck. [Then, they're all mine!]
Elaya prayed, squeezed her eyes shut and drew her card. [Please deck! I need to believe in the heart of the cards!] She drew the card and held it in front of her and slowly opened her eyes. Her heart jumped in her chest. It was Pot of Greed again.
"I use Pot of Greed." She said slowly. [This is make or break. I know that she'll be summoning something really powerful with those Slime Tokens. I need these two cards to be able to summon Storm Sister's other half and a way to summon them both at the same time...please deck. I believe!] She drew her final two cards.
"Hang on to your hat Dieen! This is going to be one exciting turn of events!" Elaya said. "First, I activate the magic card, Elegant Egotist to triple my Pixie into three!" The magic card flipped over, and soon, three Pixie's-just like the ones that helped Yugi, Kaiba and Elaya before-hovered on the field.
"Next, I sacrifice my face down monster, Queen Bird along with my Pixies to summon.." The Pixies and Queen Bird disappeared from the field, to leave Flame Champion alone. "Storm Sister! (2800/2800)" A set of blue hands appeared on the field. They opened to reveal a blue skinned beauty with aqua coloured hair, large green eyes, pointed elf ears and a long flowing dress. In her hand, Storm carried a dark blue sceptre with a glowing ball floating in it.
"Say hello to your worse enemy!" The blue skinned creature opened her eyes and grinned evilly at the Slime Tokens and the Lord of Dragons. Unfortunately, Storm had to wait one more turn.
"And ain't half of what's gonna happen!" Elaya spit out. The pain that had accumulated had finally taken its toll on her body. "I now activate the magic card, 'Card Destruction!' So say goodbye to whatever cards you hold in your hand!"
As soon as both Elaya and Dieen put their cards in the graveyard, Elaya drew the top card of her deck and was happy that it was the card that Kaiba gave her, "And to finish my move, I'll use Monster Reborn to bring back the monster I sent to the graveyard, Evil Storm Sister! (2800/2800)" This time, a pair of grey hands appeared on the field. They opened to reveal a grey skinned spirit with ebony hair and red eyes. She wore a red and black dress and also held a sceptre with an electric charged ball inside. Elaya felt faint. As if the last bit of strength and adrenaline that had been carrying her this entire time went on vacation. She fell to her knees and shut her eyes. [I'll just rest a moment......]
"Elaya! Get up! This is not a good time to take a nap!" She heard a noise from behind her.
"Mmm?" was all she could muster out. She then realized that it was Kaiba who spoke earlier.
"Elaya! You've got to finish her off! You and I both know the effect of those monsters! Use it now! Get up and order them to attack!" Kaiba called from the sidelines. He knew if Elaya took one more blow, from a trio of Blue Eyes, she wouldn't make it. Maybe, but barely.
Elaya shoulders slumped down a bit. She shook her head from side to side very sloppily. "I can't. The swords are still up, silly."
"Just get up now! We're counting on you! Stop acting like an idiot and stand up!" Kaiba was yelling now. And even though he was only a few feet away, he was nothing more than a distant whisper in Elaya's ears.
Like a robot she stood, knees slightly bent with her arms hanging loosely at her sides. "Come on Elaya!" Joey, Téa and Mokuba shouted. "Finish her off!"
Elaya, standing up, said slowly, "Since they were summoned on the field at the same time, they each receive a 1000 ATK and DEF boost. And don't forget: Sisters will attack together and defend together. Her friends cheered as they all watched her two monsters status' reach 3800.
[That little worm! How dare she foil my plan with Card Destruction. But, lucky for me, all I have to do is draw another Blue Eyes, and then use my Tokens to summon it, and then just use Flute of Summoning Dragon to revive the Blue Eyes already in the Graveyard and the one still in his deck.] Dieen smiled. [Even though those things have an 800 ATK point advantage over ONE Blue Eyes, they don't stand a chance against three that are merged!]
Dieen and Elaya drew their new hands. [I just drew a Dark Magician Girl, another Trap Hole, Kotodama, and Death Strike..I just hope that my two Sisters will help me...]
"On my next turn, Dieen, I'll be free to attack...For this move; I play one card face down." Elaya said swaying. On the field, she had her two Storm Sisters, her Flame Champion and Kotodama face down in defence mode.
"That is if you even have a next turn!" Dieen smiled. She had drawn both remaining Blue Eyes in her draw and now, a final Slime Token appeared. [Three down, one to go!] "Your move Elaya."
[Let's see. She has two face down cards. One is obviously one that will trap my monsters...so I'll use Flame Champion just in case that is the case. I'm so tired..I just want to sleep.]
\\ Elaya! Stay awake! You need to win this duel! \\ Justi shouted quite loudly in her mind. Elaya finally snapped out of her sleeping state. All of the adrenaline had returned in full force.
"Flame Champion, attack her Slime Tokens!" Just as the warrior was about to slice them all in twos, Dieen cried, "Activate, Mind Control!" A large brain appeared on the field and stopped the warrior dead in her tracks.
"Now, she is my brain washed slave. And, I chose to sacrifice my three Slime Tokens along with your Flame Champion to summon a beast with power that you've never seen before!"
Everyone in the group was scared. Especially Kaiba. [She's doomed. If Dieen summons my other two with Flute of Summoning Dragon, Elaya won't make it..no..] For the first time in his life, he actually felt like crying.
"Come on Elaya! Don't lose faith now!" Joey and Grandpa shouted.
"I believe in you honey..you've never let me down before, and don't let this be your first!" Teresa cried.
"What she said!" Tristan, Téa and Mokuba cheered. Kaiba looked on, heart beating hard in his chest.
Then, the four monsters dissipated and out came Kaiba's ferocious Blue Eyes White Dragon. "Next, I'll use my other magic card, Flute of Summoning Dragon and equip Lord of Dragons with it. Now, I can summon two more dragons without tributing. So, say hello to the trio of Blue Eyes!" The three dragons growled as they appeared on the field.
"Shame I'll have to say good bye so soon. Kotodama, appear on the field!" Her face down monster card appeared. "Her effect is perfect in this situation." Elaya said smiling, but exhausted none the less. "Whenever she's on the field, monsters with the same name cannot exist on the field at the same time! So say good bye to all of your Blue Eyes!"
The powerful dragons began to fuzz out, and finally explode leaving nothing but ancient footprints.
"NO!" Dieen cried. "MY PRECIOUS DRAGONS!"
"And, with only your Lord of Dragons on the field, I call upon the powers of my Storm Sister duo. Go now, attack with Double Time Sceptre Magic!" The two spirits twirled their sceptres and shot out powerful blasts, totally destroying her Lord of Dragons.
That's when Elaya crumbled. The combined force of her Storm Sisters ATK strength, 7600, caused her to collapse on the ground. Justi shielded Kaiba and brought the pain to Elaya as she requested. For a while, Elaya just lay there, barely hearing her friends behind her telling her to get up.
Teresa, Téa and Mokuba cried softly, tears rolling down her face. Joey and Tristan looked on wide-eyed. Joey realized that that must have been him at Battle City. Yugi was trying his best to keep a strong face on, but was finding it almost impossible. And Kaiba just stood, emotionless, staring at the unmoving form of his oldest friend.
He somewhat felt ashamed of how he acted in Battle City, when Joey was duelling Marik and the same things were happening. Now, Elaya was getting twice as much pain as Joey did..and he was shocked that she lasted this long without collapsing way earlier in the game. He then realized what was wrong. If Elaya were to attack Dieen's LP directly, she would win; no contest. But the pain would go to him, and she would take it away and receive all 7800 ATK points worth, possibly leaving her dead.
"ELAYA!" he shouted. "ATTACK HER NOW!" She slowly and cautiously got up on her knees. Her clothes were smoking and it felt like her insides were on fire.
"But I can't take anymore pain." She whispered.
"I'll take it, Elaya! Just attack and be done with Dieen for good!" She got up and stood long enough to shout, "STORM SISTERS! ATTACK HER LIFE PIONTS DIRECTLY!!!" She fell to her knees afterwards. [He'll take the pain..He'll take the pain...He'll take the pain..] was the only statement in her mind. The final crushing blow was made to Dieen as her LP went all the way to zero.
Kaiba cried out as the pain struck him. He fell to his knees and wondered how either Joey or Elaya managed to take that type of torture for so long. He realized then that those powers did exist and weren't the mumbo-jumbo garbage he thought they were. Mokuba ran to him and helped him up.
"Wheeler?" he said, "How did you do it? How did you, out of all people, manage to take that type of pain in Battle City?"
Joey smiled, "You wouldn't believe me if I told you."
Dieen wretched scream echoed off the walls. The two Sisters and Kotodama disappeared.
"It's over, Dieen. If I can even call you that.you're a horrible spirit and you deserve to spend the rest of your eternal life locked away in the depths of darkness." Elaya switched into Justi's ancient form as she continued. "My sister was just like Evil Storm, the darker side but the one who will avenge anything or anyone who crosses her sister. The real Dieen was like that. You-you are nothing more than the mixed emotions of the fear and evil of the people who live within your boundaries."
Dieen cried out, returning to her normal state. [How could I lose with combined decks? How could I lose to..to..her!?! This isn't over yet..]
"Sister?" Justi asked. "I know that there is a good side still stuck in there. Please come out." The Scales began to glow a bright yellow, causing Dieen to curl up in a ball to shield her eyes. She screamed in anguish as the real Dieen came out. She was wearing the exact clothing the last time Justi saw her alive.
"My sister!" the real Dieen said. "Thank you. I am truly free." As she went to hug Justi, she disappeared, becoming nothing more than a breeze.
Unfortunately, the evil that had corrupted Dieen long ago was still there, standing up, staring at them all.
She began to smile. She began to laugh.
"You know, I may have lost this duel, but I haven't lost completely. I still have the power to bring one of you with me."
This time, Elaya switched with Justi. "No way."
"If I don't get anyone, none of you leave the virtual realm. Simple as that."
"But we won, fair and square!" Joey said as the entire group took a step forward.
"Take me." Elaya said. She removed the Scales around her neck. \\ No! Elaya! \\
"No! Honey, don't!" Teresa said, but before she could say another word, Dieen made a small vortex in her hands. Inside was all black with actual hands coming out of it. It shot out towards Elaya, but she just stood there, staring back, as if she was totally unaware where Dieen would be taking her.
Kaiba made a break. He ran towards Elaya as fast as his legs could carry him. [I gotta get her out of that thing's path! I hope that I can make it too...] The black hole's hands were getting closer by the second, and Kaiba quickened his pace. He got contact, he felt her body slam into his, but that was the last thing he did feel.
Woah!...cliff-hanger! He He..please read and review!
P.S. Let me remind you, this duel was pretty short-please don't sue-because I don't know how. But, the monsters, otherwise indicated, were real. And I don't know if all the effects were right, so bare with me. Elaya won, and that's all there is to it. Thank you.
If you have the time, REIVEW!
