"Wow folks! it seems sir Malik Ishtar is about to summon the strongest
monster in his deck. With both players stuck in the depths of the Mask of
Confusion how will this duel continue?" The host yelled into the mic as the
crowd cheered for the duel. None of them barley knew Malik. But in Malik's
case they'd know him as the greatest duelist of the world. But Allen would
have to change that all to succeed.
"To start this turn I'll activate this magic card, De-Fusion to return all the warriors to their normal state. Now! I sacrifice Warrior of Isis, Set, and Geb! To summon the almighty, God of Sobek!" Malik said as he laughed evilly and historically through his mask.
What was left of the sun was now shining brightly. Then a gate appeared and it slowly opened. Behind the gate was Sobek. God of Sobek. The human with a alligator head, holding a staff, slowly walked out onto the field.
"Fear the ultimate power of my god card!" Malik said putting his hand into a fist. "The effects of Osiris are nothing to it and every turn i can roll a dice and depending on the roll I can increase it's attack by 1000 multiplied by the number on the dice.". Malik then dug through his pocket and pulled out a golden dice.
"Let the roll begin" Malik said as he threw it to the field. A holographic image of the dice appeared bigger on the field. The dice came to a stop and landed on a 5. "Looks like my monster gains 5000 attack points" . Sobek's life points increased to 5000 which was now higher than God of Osiris.
Malik then grew confident that he'd hit Osiris and ignored the Mask of Confusion. "Sobek! attack God of Osiris and win me this duel!" Malik announced reaching his hand out to order it. Sobek raised it's staff and the gold sun on it shined. The shines burned to the ground but then Malik could hear the Mask chuckle again. Instead of hitting Osiris the shines dissolved Revival Jam instead. Due to the effects of Monster Protection, Osiris wouldn't be able to attack Revival Jam with it's second mouth. If it did it would cause a tie and both players would have to do a re-duel.
"Damn, this mask. I should have picked a better death for you instead of falling to your demise" Malik said trying to rip the mask off. Malik then ended his turn.
Allen drew his card. "Yeah, Remove Trap, finally!" Allen said. "I now play this card, Remove Trap to dispel Mask of Confusion!". Allen could feel the mask lose its grip and he quickly swatted it off and threw it to the arena which dissolved.
"yes! free from your spell and now I can finish you off!" Allen said as he breathed in a deep fresh breath of air and also covering his eyes from the light of Sobek.
Allen then gained his sight back. "Now I'll activate Pot of Greed to draw 2 cards which raises my god card to 5000, equal to your monster!" Allen announced. "Now Osiris! attack God of Sobek!". Osiris' head appeared out of the clouds and opened it's mouth at Sobek.
Malik hesitated as Sobek was destroyed, along with Osiris. "Now I end my turn!" Allen announced. Malik drew his card. "Yes, I finally activate Mystical Space Typhoon and destroy the mask. Then I'll activate Monster Reborn and bring The Crypt Warrior from the grave and now I have 6 millennium monsters which gains an extra 600 attack points. Now prepare for your demise! right after you end your turn!" Malik announced laughing evilly as the darkness grew. "Then I'll activate Swords of Revealing Light end end my turn"
"Prepare for yours!" Allen said skipping his draw phase. Right now Allen's hand was what he needed to win. "You're foolish. If only you knew what I had in my hand you would have been able to block this head on attack!". Malik gasped as there was a change of weather. Lightning struck to the ground. "I'll activate Angel Pachinko Machine and summon 3 Pachinko Tokens! Now for my final monster. This will win me the duel! I now summon God of Obelisk!"
The three orbs them burst into blue light all forming into the figure of Obelisk. A bright blue light covered the arena and the giant being appeared. "Meet your match because there's no one to save you from Obelisk! (4000/4000)" Allen announced as Malik's monsters were destroyed. Malik was in total shock and guilt of himself as the monster towered over him. "No swords can stop me from the final attack! Obelisk! attack Malik directly and send him to the Semi-Finals!" He declared.
Obelisk rose it's hand and dove it at Malik which he penetrated with his gauntlets. Suddenly the whole arena turned off and floated tot he ground. "I may have lost this duel but I will be back but this time I have a new target and I'll be able to retrieve my Millennium Rod" Malik said looking over to Mink. He then threw God of Sobek over at Allen and he caught it. He then left.
"Folks! what we've witnessed here was an incredible duel! we are now done with the finals and moving along in the tornament into the other finals!" The host yelled as he threw his mic into the air.
"God that was tough" Allen said as he went over to the group. "You did great! you tricked Malik in his own game and your survived!" Daniel said patting his back.
"Well it's almost 8. The audience will leave soon and we're invited to dinner" Jess said looking at her cell phone. "Well I'm starving a whole game is enough for now I need something to eat" Allen said walking down the hall.
As the rest of the group left Mink and Paul stayed behind. "Paul, you're related to Mr. Kaiba, aren't you" Mink said looking over at him. Paul just sat there with his arms crossed. "Maybe I am, maybe I'm not. The duels will continue up on the skies. You'll find out if I am related to him once we take off" Paul said smiling. Then he got up.
"Now let's hurry I'm hungry myself" Paul insisted leading the way. Mink followed behind. "Wow" Daniel said looking around the room. There were stacks of food everywhere. Everyone quickly ran around engorging themselves.
"3 God cards, that's really cool" Daniel said at Allen. "Yeah, I know but something doesn't feel right. I mean Malik is moving onto the Semi-Finals. Yet someone has gotta win and someone has gotta lose. The judges are pairing up people by random. What if Malik wins and it's one of our friends..." Allen said looking down.
"Don't worry, Malik will lose, we can't let him hurt one of our friends" Daniel replied. "I'm sure he'll be paired up with Stagg"
The host then entered the room. "May I have everyone's attention please!" The host ordered. Everyone looked up at the balcony. "I'd just like to thank our duelists for these great duels! I'm sure everyone around the world enjoyed it! keep up the excitement!"
"Yeah, exciting, he doesn't even know what we're going through" Mink glared. She then popped a chocolate in her mouth and walked on. Jess sat at a chair just watching the whole group.
"Anything wrong?" Mink asked. "Yeah, that evil spirit. It's driving me nuts. It tried to make me join it, I almost joined it but I don't want to hurt anyone" Jess replied. "I mean, this is tough my dad has been taken by the evil spirit and now it's engulfing me"
"You're scared aren't you" Mink said. "NO! I'm not scared, I'm just glad it's gone" Jess said crossing her arms. Then they both started laughing.
Then one of the judges came forth on the balcony. "Remember, Duelist, Take a good rest. 3:00 sharp we will be starting other duels in the sky on the blimp. The blimp was actually from 20 years ago when Mr. Kaiba started Battle City and we'll be dueling on the very same arena" The judge said looking down at them. "I'm sure there will be many sacrifices, wins, and losses. Just keep up the spirit"
"Ra, the strongest God of Them all, are you even sure." Jess said walking to him. "Yes I am" Paul said looking at her. "And how do you possibly know?" She asked.
"Because, I know a lot more about Ra then you do" He smiled. "Prove it" Jess dared.
"Have you ever heard of the 8 Moons of Ra?" Paul asked. Jess shook her head. "They were once to be the moons of many planets but when all were joined they would unleash the ravishing god, Ra. Yes Ra is alive and well. it slumbers beyond the universe waiting for the 8 Moons to join. The moons are scattered through out the galaxy. As each god gets closer to on another they join up. Each god represents one moon and once they are all place din a certain Plaque. Ra will be born and the use will command Ra to do his or her bidding. I know this because an old friend told me so you can stop judging me" He explained.
"Oh..." Jess said looking away. She then got up to join the others. As she walked away she smiled evilly. "So this is what the goal is for everyone and the gods" She thought as within, he Millennium Ring gleams from her eyes.
As an hour passed by the duelist were directed to their rooms. Daniel sat at his bed. "Man, these duels are getting serious. Maybe I should give up. No on will try to retrieve my God Cards, yet on the other hand maybe they would force me" He thought looking out the window to the town. "Why me"
The night fell and everyone was in bed, Except for Paul. He sat at his bed looking through his deck. "That Daniel, he's pretty good. Winning Battle City at the Grounds of Pegasus, defeating Mortikai at Duelist Kingdom The Second. He may be a threat to me. I'll just have to throw him in the mud" He thought as he viewed Ra. "Ra will be at my command". He then threw his deck to the counter and got in his bed. Then he clicked the lamp off and fell to his rest.
As Mink slumbered she had a dream. There was a scale, it looked like the Millennium Scale but it wasn't gold. On it... there was a golden feather... and on the other... her... herself. Then there's Malik in the background. He's holding the Millennium Rod and laughing.Then the Scale she's on falls and she falls into darkness. She can still hear the laughs from Malik as she looks up. Mink quickly awoke and stood up panting. "God what kind of dream was that" She thought looking around. Mink went into the small bathroom and grabbed a towel and wiped her sweat off of her face and looked in the mirror. "Malik... why won't you leave me alone" She said as she looked at her bag. Mink slowly walked over to it and opened it.
"He wants this, he can have it but right now it's for my needs to help me win the Second Finals. I must help get the God Cards" Mink said to her self. She looked over at the digital clock. It was now 1:00. "I have two hours, I need a drink" She said leaving the room and too the hall. As she walked down the hall she could feel something on her back. She turned around but nothing was there. "God, that nightmare is getting to me" She thinks going to the fountain and taking a drink. Suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder then she gave a short yelp.
"No no, don't worry it's me" Allen said calming her down. "God DON'T DO that!" Mink practically yelled. "Shh, people are trying to sleep. I couldn't sleep too excited" Allen responded letting go of her.
"Yeah me either, nightmare" Mink replied looking at him in the corner of her eye. "What about?" he asked.
"Nothing, I just have a feeling... Malik will.. he'll" Mink tried to get it out of her but the words didn't come out right. "Look, Malik is just as easy, all he could do is pull a few tricks" Allen said unimpressed.
"I could see it in your eyes, even if the mask was on. You were scared to fall" Mink said unimpressed too. She then walked passed him and into her room. Allen sighed and walked into his room.
Meanwhile in Jess' room. All she was doing was looking down at her Millennium Ring and talking to it silently. "This reminds me of that story with Dr. Jekyll, me the good one, you the evil. Why can't you just leave" Jess said looking down at it.
"Because I need a new body one I can get good control of" The ring replied. "You're calling me weak" Jess said giving an angry face.
"I am not, I just simply need your help" The ring said. "Well, I won't be using you for now on, leave me alone!" Jess yelled throwing the Millennium Ring through the window. Everyone could hear the shatter and yells.
Everyone quickly entered the room. "What happened?!" Daniel said bursting into the room. "Nothing, nothing, it was just an accident" Jess said looking out the window with no sign of the Millennium Ring. Paul entered the room. "Well, looks like you can't sleep in this kind of room, there's an extra next to Enya's room" He said throwing her keys. Paul then left. Everyone else left as Jess got settled into her new room.
The night was dark. Enya had trouble resting. "Why do I keep thinking of him!" Enya said in her mind covering her face with her pillow. "He seems so familiar... ever since I saw him." Finally after a couple minutes Enya drifted to a sleep. She dreamt of herself as a child. A a boy holding her hand. They're walking down a street and it's raining. neighborhood through neighborhood they walk. It seems they're trying to look for their house but can't find it. Cars drive by not noticing them. They finally stop to a bench and rest. The boy looks down at her but she smiles and the boy smiles back. Suddenly, a screeching honk comes up and Enya is woken wide awake.
The clock is ringing at 3:00 meaning it's time to continue the tournament. There were cameras around so they could air the rest on T.V in the morning. Enya walked through the door and to the hall way dressed up and weary.
"hey" Daniel said next to Enya. "Hey" Enya said a bit tired. "Ready for the finals?" He asked. "Not sure... That Malik guy has been bugging me lately, I don't get it I feel like we've met or bonded before" Enya replied.
"Malik? well he does have a big family. He has mention Ishizu before. You are Ishizu's sister" Daniel mentioned. Enya nodded. The came at the end of the hall to hear a loud air kind of noise. There was a big blimp right in the middle of the stadium with a big K and C on it.
"Kaiba Corp" Allen said from behind. "I've heard it from the past. I'm thinking Paul knows something we don't. You think he's related to Seto Kaiba somehow?"
"Not sure but maybe we'll find out" Daniel said walking to the Host. "Finally! the others are inside, get in. We're leaving in 3 minutes" The host said pushing them along. The three of them entered the blimp and after 3 minutes it took off into the air.
"Bleh, I hope I don't get air sickness" Allen said looking down. "You won't, this thing was made to be as the ground" Paul replied looking out the window.
"Where's Stagg? I haven't seen him around" Mink mentioned. "He's here, I saw him get in before me" Paul said with his hands in the pockets of his coat.
"Now that everyone's here, except for Stagg, I'd like to introduce you all to the Referee of the tournament, Sir J Crawford, Pegasus" Paul said opening the door. The silver haired man enters the room smiling.
"Welcome duelist. I am you referee. I'm glad to meet you all, and some familiar faces" Pegasus said looking over at the group. Malik kept a straight face. "I see we are short of one person, where is Mr. Stagg?"
"I'm here" Stagg said entering the room from one door. "Ahh, yes. Now that the 8 duelist are here, I will meet you all at the top" Pegasus said pointing up.
"Top? what does he mean?" Enya asked. "The duels will be taking place atop the blimp where the arena is" Paul replied.
"But... I thought we'd be dueling inside the blimp!" Enya said a bit hysteric. "Heh yeah, watch your step" Paul teased. Enya gave him a mean glare.
Pegasus had left the room and the others followed. They took step after step on a long stair case until they got to an elevator. Everyone shoved themselves in and entered at the top of the blimp. "Brr, it's colder than the other arena" Enya said grabbing herself.
The Arena lifted up from the inside of the blimp and to the surface. "Now let's get this tournament finished" Pegasus said walking to the referee's platform.
"To start this turn I'll activate this magic card, De-Fusion to return all the warriors to their normal state. Now! I sacrifice Warrior of Isis, Set, and Geb! To summon the almighty, God of Sobek!" Malik said as he laughed evilly and historically through his mask.
