"I will never help you, you bastard!" she yelled boldly to him. Marik sighed at her stupidity.
"Fine then, I'll make you!" he said and pulled out his millennium item and pointed it to her.
A glow shown around the room, making Yami and Kaiba cover eyes. A few seconds had passed and the light began to fade away, leaving a snickering Marik and a rather happy Bakura.
"Oh my God!" Ishizu cried fro the sidelines of the arena. Yami turned his head, and looked at Jessica.
She stood there, not moving at all, with a smirk on her face, and Yami didn't even have to ask what was wrong with her, and even if he did, she couldn't answer him, she was being controlled by Marik.
"Now you listen up girl, and you listen good, you'll end this soon enough, do I make myself clear?" Marik asked.
"Yes master" came her reply. Kaiba starred into the lifeless eyes, making him angrier then ever. She didn't deserve this, nobody did.
"Come on Yami, I don't have all day, we can do this" Kaiba said.
"Yes Kaiba, as long as we believe in the heart of the cards" Yami said drawing a card.
"Not again with your heart of the cards Yami, dammit! We can't rely on that, we need skill, and I'm sure with our decks we can both beat them" Kaiba said.
"Arguing I see." Bakura trailed off.
"Shut the fuck up Bakura! I play Gearfried the Iron Knight (1800 atk) and destroy your monster Marik!" Yami yelled with all his anger. "And I set two cards face down, ending my turn" he added.
Grand Tiki Elder vanished from the arena. "It doesn't matter Yami, I have the millennium bracelet on my side, and it's more powerful then your stupid puzzle in this duel" Marik said. Rolling his eyes, Bakura drew a card.
"My look at my luck, Graceful Charity" Bakura laughed. He then drew three cards, and after taking a look at them, he discarded two of them. "Okay seeing as both of your cards are weak and pathetic, I think I'll get rid of one for you! I summon dark Necrofear and I'll have it attack.your.battle ox Kaiba!" Bakura snickered.
Dark Necrofear destroyed battle ox, leaving Kaiba with 3200 life points. "But that's not all my friends, I also activate the magic card Mask of the Accursed. You remember this card Pharaoh? I then equip it to your Iron Knight making you lose 500 points each standby phase" he said. Yami smirked.
"Well I can tell Jessica is not totally in your control Marik, because I activate Ookazi at your life points Bakura now lowering them to 2200" Yami stated.
"Marik get that woman under control and fast!" Bakura hissed.
"She is, I just haven't made her do much yet" Marik pouted.
"Well today would be great you know" Bakura growled.
"Fine, fine" Marik said. Again he pointed the rod towards the girl, forcing her to use her magic.
A light flashed from Jessica's millennium bracelet. Inside of the girl's mind came a calm and soothing voice. (AN: Okay this won't be anything special, I don't have a good imagination lol) "And who do you may wish to win this duel little one" the voice said. Jessica opened her mouth, but nothing came out. She wanted to scream Yami with all her heart, but it was as if something held her back.
"Marik and Bakura" a raspy voice said back. Jessica's eye's widened in shock as the voice said a simple
"Okay then child"
Kaiba drew a card and then started his turn.
"I set one card face in defense and set another card face down, seeing as I can't do much" Kaiba growled.
"Well I guess my little Jessica is working out well" Marik said drawing his next card.
"Okay then I play Dark Ruler Ha Des (2450 atk) And I attack you face down card Kaiba" Marik laughed evilly.
"No wait! I don't want Marik to win I wa-" Jessica was cut off short.
"Woman I'm warning you." Marik trailed off. But even so, the mystery woman had heard the girl's plea, and even though she didn't hear whom she wanted to win, she knew it wasn't Marik, so she did what any other would do, she helped out.
"You shouldn't have done that I flip summon Lady Assailant of Flames (1500 atk). Her effect lets me discard three cards from the top of my deck to inflict 800 Life Point damage. But since we can choose where that damage is directed I choose it against you Bakura" Kaiba said, this time it was him with the smirk. he said in his head.
Kaiba knew it was something Jessica had said, because he didn't put that card face down before, and just seconds after the mysterious woman had changed it and told him all about it, using her magic. He knew as long as Jessica stayed strong they would get through this quick enough.
"Must you be so cruel and pick on me?" Bakura laughed, watching his life points go down to 1400.
"But you also loose life points Kaiba because my attack is 2450 while yours is 1500. So you loose 950 life points while your card is also destroyed" Marik said. The four watched as Kaiba's life points went down to 2250.
Jessica watched even though she was under control, she could still see what happened. She was glad that she had enough strength to help Kaiba, even if he did loose so life points in the process. Then the feeling came back into her mind, it was Marik.
"I need a letter from the destiny board now!" he growled.
"Is that what you wish child?" the voice said.
"Yes" Marik made her say.
Marik then drew a card. "Whatever, I play the letter N on the board to help end this quicker and I also since my monster is strong enough, might as well get rid of your iron knight no pharaoh?" he laughing. Jessica cried inside. She wanted nothing more then to help them, but it was hard to fight back against Marik's control, and she could feel herself starting to feel a little sick.
To her luck, she broke free from his control just enough time to yell inside her head, to the voice, "Help Yami out!" before Marik gained control again.
His monster ran towards Yami's monster and both were covered in a white light. After the light faded and two monster stood on the field. Seconds passed and then Dark Ruler Ha Des burst into pieces.
"What the fuck? My monster was stronger!" he yelled. "Why that little bit-" he started.
"To bad Marik! Once again Jessica has broken free and just in time too because I activate my Negative Energy card. It doubles any monsters attack points putting my monster at 3600 points. And since you and Bakura share life points I will take the difference of this attack on him! Thanks Jessica" he smiled at the last part. Bakura's life points went down to 250.
"Marik, please don't tell me that a pathetic woman is over powering you!" Bakura yelled at his friend.
"Trust me Bakura, we won't loose" Marik reassured him.
"Well hurry the fuck up, I'm almost gone, and if I loose all my life points, then we both loose, go it!" Bakura growled. He refused to loose another duel to the damn pharaoh!
"I know that! I made the damn rules, now stop worrying" Marik said.
That's when Yami noticed it. Jessica if she could she looked paler, her eyes barely open to see the duel. If it weren't for Marik's mind control she'd probably be lying on the floor. "What's happening to her?" Yami asked.
"Oh? So you finally see it don't you? Well for every time she goes against my will, she looses energy, bringing her closer to death. You see when she concentrates hard enough, while I control her, the stupid bracelet will give her a few seconds to let her make her own decisions, and that takes a lot of energy, that's why not many are worthy of such power, and Yami I don't think she'll last long enough for the duel to end, and as time goes it makes it harder and harder to gain control" Marik laughed.
"Why that is very smart of you" Bakura laughed too.
"I guess you better tell her to stop, or she'll die, and you wouldn't want a friend to die now would you?" Bakura added. Yami stood there, in shock. So that's what there doing? I have to make her stop! I know it will make our chances slimmer, but we can't lose her Yami thought.
Kaiba had almost dropped his cards in shock. Are these people that sick? I can't let her risk her life for a duel! I know we can do this; we just need to try Kaiba thought.
"Fine, let us speak to her" Yami growled. He felt so worthless for giving in to them. After hearing those words, he stopped controlling the girl, making her fall to the floor, breathing heavily. "Jessica listen, stop going against Marik's will!" Yami yelled to her.
"But . . .you. . .need. . .the. . .help. . .or. . .you'll. . .lose. . ." she barely said.
"I know, but I'm sure we can do this, Jessica you need to stop it please.we don't want you to die . . ." Yami trailed off.
Jessica stared at Yami from where she lay. Is he serious? Without my help and the bracelet to help Marik win, they can't win; it's impossible she thought in her head. "Promise me you won't go against his will Jessica" Yami said. After a moment or two Jessica answered him .
"I. . .promise. . ." she said, crossing her fingers behind her back. When Marik heard her final words, he took her back under control.
They all watched her body stand up again, looking sadly back at the arena. "Can we get back to the duel? I have better things to do then waste time!" Bakura told them.
"Anyways pharaoh you still lose 500 life points because of my mask!" Marik added.
"No I don't" Yami smiled.
"What the hell do you mean you don't?" asked an aggravated Marik.
"Gearfried is an iron knight. Sure, I lost 500 points when you activated the mask but after that your mask is destroyed, as that is this card's special ability" Yami said.
"I can't believe you didn't see that! That idiot plays it in almost all of his duels, its pathetic. But I guess in this case it helped" Kaiba said.
"We did it purposely" Marik yelled.
"Well let's not purposely do that again.It's my turn so I play Mr. Volcano (2100 Atk.) And attack your life points directly Kaiba, take that!" Bakura grinned.
"Shit! I have no cards on the field!" Kaiba yelled to himself.
A huge fireball went straight for Kaiba and the heat engulfed his life points leaving them at 150.
Jessica watched the fireball hit Kaiba, and it looked painful. Even though she had promised Yami, she had to do something, or it would be to late. So with all her strength left, Jessica was able to take over her own body.
"Give Marik nothing to play" she whispered to the mysterious voice. "And then. . .help. . .Yami. . .win. . .with his next. . .card" was her last words before she fell to the ground.
"What did that little bitch say?" Bakura growled.
"I don't know . . .but I can't control her anymore. . ." Marik trailed off.
"NO! she wasn't suppose to do anything." Yami yelled. He was about to jump off the platform, when Kaiba grabbed him back.
"You idiot, if you leave then we lose the duel" Kaiba hissed.
"Is that all you care about the duel? Jessica she's hurt. . .maybe worse and all you can think about is ending this duel!" Yami growled.
"Well Jessica used the last of her strength to help us out, are you going to make her sacrifice a waste?" Kaiba asked.
Yami looked at Kaiba, and after a few moments he took his place back beside Kaiba, wanting to finish the duel quicker then ever now. Marik drew a card and to his disgust he got nothing but a weak card.
"I. . .pass" he mumbled.
"What the fuck do you mean you pass? You idiot! You really want us to lose don't you?" Bakura yelled.
"I swear tom robber shut your mouth" was all Marik said.
Yami hesitated for a few moments. It all came down to this card, and god how he hoped it would finish this now. Then he drew the card. Picking it up, and taking a look, he sighed with relief, and before playing he smirked. (AN: You people know what I'm talking about.that smirk!!!!)
"I activate just desserts, making your life points fall to zero, making us the winners of the duel Marik!" Yami smirked, Kaiba too.
"We. . .lost? How the fuck did we lose? You were supposed to have this planned!" Bakura said angrily.
"Well I didn't think that girl could over power me!" Marik yelled back.
"We won this duel fair and square Marik, now give us the girl and we'll leave" Kaiba said. The platforms descended and Yami and Kaiba rushed over to Jessica's lifeless body, as did the others. (Joey, Ishizu.remember there, there too!)
"She's barely breathing!" Ishizu cried.
"We have to get her to a hospital" Kaiba said picking her up.
"Okay let's go!" Yami said, and they ran through the door they came from.
