Akina Tori: Hiya guys, a quick chapter update huh?
Skuld: They wouldn't let her upload any chapters for a while..
Urd: I think that's messed up...
Belldandy: Agreed..
Akina Tori: Anyway.. this is the chapter will be fun!
Skuld: That sounds fun.. *sighs*
Akina Tori: I know.. *crackle*
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Skuld closed the door behind her, still looking at the deck, where the cards had actually chosen *her* instead of she choosing them. How fun being a goddess with unlimited powers!
" Now for my daily invention making! " she said, reaching for her hammer in the corner, when she touched her hammer, a red magic circle glows beneathe her. It looks like a celtic knot more than anything.
" EEEEEE!? Is a Demon cursing me?! " said Skuld, as she feels an unusal power emiting from this magic circle. She feels herself sinking into something, like one of those sinking sands. She clutches her hammer tighter, only one thing to do.
| Not that! |
Then Skuld mentally sighs.
| The only thing to do.. |
" Y-Yugi!!! " yelled Skuld, as she was now at her hips into the 'ground', the red magic circle glowing brighter. She saw the door opening, seeing Yugi, or Yami, for he did the little switch-a-roo with Yami and such.
" What the-? What in Ra's name is happening!? " said Yami.
" Just shut-up and stop staring, and help me! P-PLEASE! " she said, now up to her chest, the only arm free is her left one, her her right one with her hammer is stuck in the ground. Waving fractically to make Yami snap out of it.
Yami rush by Skuld's side and grabbed her only free hand. It's not really helping though, it just making her sink faster. Soon the grip of the two was lost, and the last of Skuld was her finger tips. Which were gone in just a matter of seconds.
~ SKULD! ~ yelled Yugi in Yami's mind.
" Skuld can take care of herself.. She is a goddess.. " said Yami, before Yugi can go on that it's all his fault.
~ Yes but... what will happen to her? ~
" I'm sorry aibou, but I do not know.. " said Yami, then sighed.
~~~~~~~ Skuld's Spotlight ~~~~~~
| I'm falling? NO! I don't want to go to Niflheim! |
Skuld was surrounded by grey clouds, feeling like she is falling into an endless abyss.
" What's is this scorcery!? " she called out, flipping a bit so that she is falling head first. The 'clouds' start to part, and what she saw was a stone circle inside of Stone Hedge. Skuld's eyes went wide, possibly as big as ferris wheels. On that stone circle, where the words in the writing of the Gods and Goddess, Red Rose, and White Rose.
" What the.... OH KAMI-SAMA! " she said, as she saw herself straight for that target. She shielded her self, and felt light shooting down from above of her. The she noticed she was floating lightly to the ground instead, and she sighed in relief. She landing on the stone circle, which now she notice was a few feet off the ground.
" Oooooooooooooooooooooooooh!! " Skuld hear from behind of her, and she turned around in a fighting stance.
" Summoned from the mystic circle of red and white roses, the one capable of harnessing pure power. There was truth to the the legend of the Rose Delist!!! " Skuld looked before her. It, or he, was a small person, his face hidden with a cloak of white with an odd golden jewelry piece on the hood's fore head. It look like something of wings. Skuld saw that his eyes where a navy blue, so she actually saw some part of this person's face.
" I..... I did it! Now we have the means of defeating the evil forces of Rosenkreuz! " this person said.
" Have you forgotten that I'm here... OR YOUR JUST BLIND!? " said Skuld in a very annoyed way, jumping down from the platform. Now she just notice she was in her goddes clothes.
| This is getting stranger and stranger.. |
" Oh... My apologies. In my excitement, I'd forgotten I was in the presence of the Rose Duelist " he said.
" Huh? Who in Niflheim are you anyway? " she asked.
" Allow me to introduce myself, I am Simon McMooran, High Druid and servant of Lancaster " said the druid.
" Nice ta' meet ya'... I guess.. " said Skuld, looking around.
" Um, May I be so bold to ask the name by which the Rose Duelist would be known? " said Simon.
" Skuld.. " said Skuld.
" Skuld? Like one of the Goddesses of the Norns? " he said.
" Uh-huh.. " said Skuld, trying to keep her identity of a goddess low right now.
" What year is it? " asked Skuld.
" The year is 1485, and your currently in Stonehedge, near Salisbury, England. " he answered.
" 1485!?!?!?! I was still in training to get my license!!! WHAT IN NIFLHEIM!? " said Skuld, panicing. Yet Simon continued.
The British empire is in turmoil with the House of Lancaster's rightful claim to the throne being challenged by the Yorkist's upsurpers. The power struggle is known as The War of the Roses, a name based on the badges used by both sides - a red rose for the Lancastrians, and a white rose for the Yorkists. Right now, our kingdom is threatened by the yorkists and their wrongful claim to the throne! " yet Skuld interupted
" Get to the point.. " said Skuld.
" Ahem-- all because the Yorkists enjoy the supprot of the Rose Crusaders and their sorcerous White Rose cards. Using our Red Rose cards, we summoned you, Skuld to this day and age.. " said Simon, the Skuld fumed.
" HOW COULD YOU! Trying to avoid the paths of destiny! Also using the magical writing of the Gods and Goddesses! You should be ashamed! " scolded Skuld. Simon sighed.
" There was no other choice.. But, will you help us...? " said Simon. Skuld was about to say 'no' but Simon continued anyway.
" Of course you will!! Foolish of me to even doubt where your loyalties lie.. Rumor has it that only the legendary Rose Duelist stands a chance against the power of Rosenkruez.. " said Simon, then Skuld sighed.
" Skuld, do you have a deck with a deck leader? It is important that you have a deck where you feel the vibrations of your Deck Leader.. " said Simon.
" Of course I do! " she said, and she grabs the deck out of her shirt, Simon's eyes going wide. Skuld gave him a dark glare of icey daggers. She then closed her eyes, and pancaked it between her hands. Chanting a spell..
|~ Oh cards...
Decide what should be you leader..
To guide..
To summon..
Find the right one! ~|
She pulled the first one off the top. Then she gasped, and dropped her cards. She could hear her heartbeat in her head, and she started to sweat. Now in a state of shock, it is that over whelming to a Goddess!
" What is wrong Rose Duelist Skuld? " asked Simon.
" N-Noble Scarlet!? " said Skuld.
| How could my angel turn into a card? HOW COULD I STILL BE LIVING!? |
There, infront of her, is a card with Noble Scarlet, her blonde waving like there was a breeze, her arms up like she was just summoned. Attack power 2750... Defense 3000... Her type is Aqua, and is a Fairy.
" What so wrong about that card being your Deck Leader? It seems powerful to me.. " said Simon
" N-nothing.. Sorry to startle you.. " she said, as her right hand glows, palm faced up. The cards return to her hand in a neat stack.. The she heard a dark, icey voice..
" Hmmm. So that's the effect of the Celtic Red Rose Cards.. It looks like there's some truth to the rumor that Red Rose Cards are capable of time transformation.. "
" Who's there!? " called out Simon.
" It's been sometime since the Battle of Barnet old one " said someone who looked like Seto in a blue-eyes white dragon suit of armor.
" Rosenkruez! What brings you here!? " said Simon, Skuld just being baffled..
" Only a member of the Rose Crusaders may call me by that name if you may recall. I told you once before that you may only address me as Seto " said 'Seto'.
" Seto Kaiba? " she asked to herself quietly, she heard some stories about this person called 'Seto' from Yugi.
" And you.. You must be the dreaded Rose Duelist. I must admit, there's a certain aura or power emiting from you. You seem to young to be the Legendary Rose Duelist, maybe you made a mistake in your ritual Simon " said Seto. Skuld just sneered, and gave him a look that could possibly distroy the earth.
| I'm older than your grandma, Kid |
" I believe an introduction is in order. I am Seto, leader of the Rose Crusaders. Members of that group call me by C. Rosenkruez.. " said Seto.
" I ask you again, what brings you here Seto!? " said Simon..
" Mind you manners old man! What else would bring me here, I have come for the Red Rose Cards! " said Seto.. Skuld just blanked out now.. Getting bored, hearing words called ' Rose Summoning ' and ' Spell of Doom ' 'White Rose Cards '... Skuld yawned in boredom as the pointless argument went on.
" OKAY! I get now that your enemies, will ya' SHADDUP!? Kami-sama, you fight more than Urd and I! " said Skuld, and they both looked at her.
" As I was saying..I shall enlist the Rose Duelist myself..! " said Seto, Skuld was now getting annoyed, her first time being ever so important.
" Like that will ever happen " said Simon..
" You speak too soon old man! Heed my words Duelist! If you wish to return to your proper time period, you will require 16 cards of the Red and White Roses. The red and white positions must be laid out in reverse of the summoning to send you home.. " said Seto.
" You know the spell...? " said Simon.
" Since you need the 16 Rose Cards as much as we do.... I propose a partnership. Help us gather the cards, and I shall guarantee your return after we reached our ultimate goal!!! " said Seto, Skuld tried to keep herself laughing.
| I'm losing my sanity, that's what! Because of the stupid school and stress! OH KAMI-SAMA! |
" An absurd proposal!!! Do you think that the Honorable Skuld would even lend an ear to your ridiculous proposal? " asked Simon.
" Watch me, I'm listening.. " said Skuld, with a smirk, Simon giving a worried look under his hood.
" Can you be so sure now, old man? " said Seto, giving his usual smirk.
" Let me see... Simon's side has 8 of the Red Rose cards, while my side - the Rose Crusaders - has possesion of the 8 White Rose cards.. As the numbers are even, simple arithmetic indicates that you could side with either of us.. " said Seto.
" No crap, Sherlock.. I'm not one of those brain damaged mortals.. " said Skuld, getting a little moody with all this talk, while she is wasting her time for her getting home. Seto did a glare, but Skuld shrugged it off.
" But I'm sure you'll take into account who's winning this war. After all, who was desperate enough to summon you in the first place? I think it's quite clear which side is better-positioned to send you home.. " said Seto.
" Good point.. " said Skuld, now thinking about it.
" S-Skuld!!! Head not the words of this... this power-hungry lunatic! " said Simon.
" Simon! Must you resort to name-calling? I'm hurt... " said Seto, mocking him.
" I'll tell you what. Why don't we leave the decision to our dear Duelist? After all, Simon, the Duelist's future is not for us to decide now, is it not? " said Seto.
" Well...yes..but. " said Simon.
" Splendid! In keeping with the tradition of the Old Temple gardens, I offer you a choice. Duelist, here are two roses.. " he said, he put his hand behind his cape, and pulls out a brooch of the bage of the Yorkist, a White Rose with two swords crossing through it.. Simon just got out a regular flower red rose.
" Here are are two roses. The white represents me, and the red one for Old Simon here.. " said Seto, Skuld just made a small confused look.
" For the sake of justice... Choose the red rose! " said Simon, reaching out to give her the red rose.
" Stand by my side, Duelist.... Choose the white rose.. " said Seto, Skuld looks back and forth at the two.
| Eny-miny-mo.. Chatch a tiger by it's toe. If it hollers, let it go. Eny-miny-mo! |
And her little 'mind finger' landed on Seto.
| O joy, the white one. Besides, I'm starting to get tired of red anyway.. He said a guarantee to get me home, that's pretty much a contract for a Goddess, right? |
" I choose.. " said Skuld, they both took a step closer, and she lefted up her right arm, her hand in a pointing position. Then she moved her arm to the right a bit, and it points at Seto.
" A wise choice Duelist! I see you are well-versed in judging a situation. Welcome to the Rose Crusaders! I........am honored. Okay, old man. It's time you made yourself scacre.. " said Seto. Simon's eyes went wide, and he backed up. Seto was chanting something, and Skuld made out some of the words.
| Why are people breaking the boudries of magic? They cannot speak of the password! |
" Wha...? What are you doing!? Stop! Noooooooooo!!! " said Simon, before he disappeared, Skuld jumped back, and her hammer appeared.
| Thank Kami-sama I wanted to make something today.. |
" Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you. I just need you out of the way until everything is settled. Now, let's talk about the rose cards. Simon mentioned he spread the cards amoung certain individuals just after summoning you.. I think it's safe to assume that a large number of those individuals are his confederates are located in France.. " then Skuld interrupted.
" OOHHH! I always wanted to go to France! " said Skuld, smiling, Seto just glared at the joke she made, and continued.
" I would like to ask you to enter France from Dover and retrive those cards for our cause. " Seto said, then Skuld smirked.
" I would go myself. However, I'm needed her to maintain our barrier against any invading forces.. " said Seto.
" Whatever.. " said Skuld
" Our enemy, Yugi, who comes from a line of Welsh nobility, would likely have inherited one of the red rose cards, and he is a *very* good duelist. This means that those who oppose the Rose Crusaders are sufficiently equipped to duel against us as equals. I'm depending on you.. " said Seto. When he said 'Yugi' Skuld snapped, and did a silent back breathe.
| H-how stupid of me to join Seto! |
" Oh, and here.. " he said, tossing the white rose brooch at her, and she catches it easily.
" Use this to get into the Rose Crusader's hide outs. There is one " said Seto, then he walked off..
" Oh joy.. " said Skuld, sighing, and she looked at herself.
" Little to flashy of a clothes, ne? " she told herself, and they became blue ribbons of light, and rewrapped around her, making a speghtti straped brown dress with a white shirt underneath. Along with that, she wears a brown cloak with that white rose brooch acting as a pin to hold the cloak together. Then she went searching for a puddle of water.
" Eureka! " she said, and she stepped into the muddy puddle. She does the same routine, and disappears into the murky waters. She then appears into a dark alleyway, and she looks around. She runs down to the cobble streets, to start her search for the rose cards.
