"Now that we have our 8 Finalists, we will now begin the Semi-Finals" Simon
said up on the podium. He pressed a button and suddenly a giant bingo
machine came up from the ground. It had 8 yellow balls in it, each with a
number. "You've all been numbered randomly and now start the bingo
machine!". The air motor started to run and the balls flew in the air.
Simon looked over at Jess, who was number 1. Mink who was 2, Allen 3, Rahn 4, Luke 5, Paul 6, Vice 7, and Daniel with 8.
"This feels like World Tournament" Mink whispered to Daniel, Dan nodded. As the balls thrashed in the air Simon began his second part of his speech.
"Now, randomly I will announce a Wild Card Distribution. This means any duelist that is eliminated will get a second chance to take the place of a person who has moved on to the finals" Simon announced. "We will only do this three times so some of you will not able to have a second chance"
Suddenly a ball came out of the slot. "Duelist number 2" He announced as the screen lit up and showed a number 2. Then another ball came out of the slot. "Duelist number 2 VS Duelist number 4."
"Wonder who they are...." Allen wondered.
"Now, Mink VS Rahn. Please follow me to the elevator. Guests may come and watch" Simon said opening the doors.
Mink and Rahn got up. "May the best duelist win!" Mink said cheerfully.
"Shut your trap" Rahn said in her mind passing her.
Before Mink started to walk off Yami grabbed her shoulder. "be careful... I think she has something up her sleeve" He said. Mink nodded and walked off to the elevator. Daniel, Allen, Jess, and Yami followed to see the duel. Luke also came. Vice and Paul remained in there seats. It didn't matter to them for now.
The elevator quickly led them to the top of the building. "We are 50 stories high. The dueling arena is right here" Simon said leading them to the giant arena. The arena was a bit square ditch in the ground. The ditch had holograms on the walls. Mink slid on her Steel Plate and her deck which lighted up her Life points to 4000. Rahn did the same. "Now duelist, start your duel" Simon announced raising his hand in the air. Everyone else stood at the side lines, waiting for the duel to start.
"Before we start... I'd like to say one thing" Rahn said smiling evilly. "If you think you're my friend, you're wrong. It was on purpose I was suppose to be"
"She tricked us!" Allen said a bit shocked
"I knew it.As soon as Yami gave you that look I could tell you were a worker. A worker for something you don't even know about. Well, sweetie. I know more about this place than you. Now let's duel!" Mink yelled drawing her 6 cards.
"First I summon Mechanical Chaser (1850/800). I'll then set 2 cards face down and end my turn" Mink announced, then ending her turn.
Rahn drew her next card. "Now! I'll set this card face down, and summon Jinzo, Number 7 in attack mode! (500/400)" Rahn announced. Suddenly a small android, similar to Android Psycho Shocker came up in the ditch where the monsters where held. The face down card materialized infront of Rahn.
"Why would she play such a weak monster...." Mink wondered. Suddenly she gasped. She remembered back to when Rahn told her about her deck. Monster's that can attack directly.
"Jinzo Number 7! Attack!" Rahn yelled. The Android help up it's laser gun it held and shot a laser blast at Mink. Mink screamed as the pain smacked her hard. Her life points were reduced down to 3500.
Rahn laughed at Mink's struggle to regain her balance. "You should have known about my deck, you'd been better prepared" She laughed.
"Shut it doll face" Mink hissed drawing her next card. Rahn growled with anger. "Now! I summon Gamma The Magnet Warrior in attack mode! (1500/1800) Now! Gamma attack!"
"I don't think so!" Rahn yelled. "Now I activate my trap card, Gravity Bind!". The card flipped up as suddenly pink waves appeared, directing their way toward's Mink's monsters. The waves had paralyzed her monsters and kept them from attacking.
"No! This will allow her to destroy me..." Mink thought. She had no choice but to end her turn. Rahn drew her next card. "Now! I summon Leghul! (300/350) And yes, it is another monster that can attack directly!" She bragged.
"Man... what can Mink do?" Allen asked.
"There's one card in her deck that can give her the upper hand" Daniel mentioned.
"That's right! Android Psycho Shocker!" Jess said a bit surprised.
"Now my monsters! Attack!" Rahn yelled. Jinzo shot it's blaster ray again and Leghul shot a round of spikes at her. Mink screamed as the attacks exploded on her, reducing her life points down to 2700. Rahn now knew she had the upper hand. She then ended her turn.
Mink drew her next card. She suddenly started to laugh. "This is for the friendship you've crushed! Now I activate Mining Facility! This trap card allows me to summon a Conversion Token on everyone of my turns" Mink said.
"So?!" Rahn snapped. "So now I sacrifice Mechanical Chaser and Gamma The Magnet Warrior for Genocide Android! (2200/3400) and since my Mining Facility has produced a Conversion Token my Genocide Android gains 500 attack points!" She yelled as her monster grew to 700.
"What a usless move! I could've done better than that!" Rahn said as Mink ended her turn. Rahn drew her next card.
"Now attack my monsters!" She yelled. Leghul and Jinzo fired their attacks but then Mink had her trap set and ready.
"Now I activate Mirror Force!" She yelled as the card flipped up. The attack was parried by a barrier covering Mink and sent a lighting blast right back at Rahn's two monsters, destroying them. Rah growled as her monsters were destroyed but Gravity Bind kept her safe from attacks. Rahn set one more card face down and ended her turn.
Mink drew her next card. "Oh yeah... I remember this, Deck Master. I won this from that snooten Zai who thought he was better than anyone" Mink thought. She placed the field magic card face down.
"Now! I place a card in face down defense mode!" Mink yelled. Suddenly Rahn activated her trap card.
"Now! I activate Light of Intervention!" She announced as the trap card flipped up. "This turns all face down defense monsters face up in defense so there'll be no tricks from you!".
Suddenly a red beam shot out right through the trap card, destroying it. "What?!" Rahn said taking a step back.
Suddenly Android Psycho Shocker floated down beside Mink. "I've activated my field magic card! Deck Master!" Mink yelled.
"What's that?!" Rahn hesitated to ask.
"This is a rare magic card. It allows me to special summon a monster on the field magic zone. Each monster has a different ability. My Deck Master will keep you from playing trap cards." Mink explained. "Now! Destroy her Gravity Bind!"
Android Psycho Shocker's eyes were glowing then another beam came out of it's forehead, smacking right into Gravity Bind and destroying it.
"No!" Rahn yelled. "Now! Genocide Android! Attack directly!" Mink screamed. The Android held it's hands up and shot a energy blast up at Rahn. The blast hit her hard on the stomach. Rahn screamed in pain as her life points were reduced down to 1300.
Mink finally gave a revenge laugh as Rahn got up. "I swear!" Rahn yelled drawing her next card. Suddenly she reread the discription on Deck Master. "Heh! I've found a fatal flaw within your Deck Master magic card! You CAN summon your deck master to the field but when it goes to the graveyard from there, you lose the game!"
Suddenly Mink remembered. "Darn it... I wouldn't have used it if I knew it did that..." She thought.
Rahn drew her next card. "Now! I summon Injection Angel Lily! (400/1500)" Rahn yelled as she placed the card on her Steel Plate.
"ugh! Not this monster again" Mink complained as the angel materialized onto the field. "Now I activate Refuse Pay to raise it's attack power without losing life points!" Rahn yelled as Lily's syringe grew bigger, increasing her attack points to 3400. "Now Lily! Attack Genocide Android!"
Lily threw her syringe at Genocide Android pumping it's chemical into it and destroying it, leaving Mink with 2000 life points. Rahn then placed one card face down and ended her turn.
Mink drew her next card. "Now! I activate Block Attack which will place your Lily in defense mode!" She announced. "Now! I'll activate Monster Reborn to bring back Android Psycho Shocker! (2400/1500) Now attack!"
The android blasted a black energy blast from his hands at the angel. It was quickly destroyed. Rahn growled and Mink ended her turn.
Rahn drew her next card. Suddenly she started to laugh. "This is your end!" Rahn laughed playing a magic card. "Now! I activate Joyful Pain!"
"Why would you play that card..." Mink wondered. Suddenly she saw Rahn's trap card going up.
It was another Gravity Bind. Yet another beam came from Android Psycho Shocker, destroying the trap card. Suddenly a spirit burst out of the Joyful Pain magic card, directing it's way into Mink. The spirit blasted right through her. Mink screamed as the pain was immense, her life points reducing by half and leaving her at 1000 life points.
"And now! I play Monster Reborn to summon back Jinzo Number 7! I also activate Axe of Despair which will raise my monster's attack points by 1000!" She yelled as her monster grew to 1500.
"NO! SHE CAN'T LOSE!" Allen yelled reaching out for her.
"Jinzo attack!" Rahn yelled. Jinzo held up it's laser blaster and shot the laser at Mink. Mink was too shocked by the sudden loss. She didn't feel the pain she felt the hatred growing. Her Millennium Rod behind her started to glow. Suddenly a giant light surrounded her. The attack damage worked.
"You have won this duel but you will pay for what you've done. You've deceived us and you brought us shame. I will get my revenge" Mink said evilly as her Oracle was glowing too. Her eyes was bright yellow and her hair trashed in the air. Mink casually walked off her platform and into the elevator which went down. Rahn seemed a bit worried but happy for the victor.
"It shows you guys that your are simple fools!" She yelled taking her glowing Purple Crystal out and showing it off.
"I announce Rahn the winner" Simon announced raising his arm to Rahn's side. Jess and the rest gave her a glare as she went down to the elevator. As the 8 finalists met down in the middle of the hall Simon mentioned something.
"Mink now has a chance of earning the Wild Card Distribution" He announced. "Please meet at the dining hall for the second round in 30 minutes"
Rahn, Luke, Vice, and Paul went there own separate direction while the rest stayed with each other in the hall.
"We're sorry that you've lost..." Jess said looking down.
"Don't mention it. I'm ok. It's just a tournament" Mink smiled
"Yeah, besides we'll make sure that double crossing Rahn pays for what she's done!" Allen said with a fist.
Paul was hiding in the corner. "Once I get through with them... I'll be called King of Games... forever...." He said to himself. He wanted to make sure he would be against Daniel so he could defeat him again.
