Previously on Yu-Gi-Oh! The duel between Rex Raptor and Tristan played on.
Tristan was trying everything he had but the Rex of Destruction arrived and
came. To make matters worse, Tristan thought he had pulled off a great
plan, but Rex used it to his advantage to make his monster even more
powerful. Tristan's next card seems to help him somehow, but how can he
take down a monster with 3800 attack points?
Chapter 5: Dragon vs. Dragon (3)
Mai Valentine was walking along the streets of Domino, looking for somebody worthy to challenge. She may have gotten to the Battle City Finals, but she was still eliminated, and it is still a pain that eats away at her. She was winning the duel; she sacrificed the Harpy Lady Sisters to summon the Winged Dragon of Ra, which she had fairly gotten from Marik. Then Marik took control of Ra, somehow, some Egyptian words she did not know.
"Hey, you!" A voice startled the young lady.
"What do you want, creep?" She retorted, noticing whom it was.
"I easily want a challenge, it will be easy getting some credits from you, but I couldn't just challenge anyone. I'm the Intercontinental Champion." He boomed A/N: If you don't know who it is by now, you are a sad, sad person.
"Fine then Keith, I'll gladly accept your challenge and wipe the floor with you." Mai told the man, Bandit Keith. The last anyone saw of him were Tristan and Joey, when Yugi had "finished" dueling him and he smashed the Millennium Puzzle and the warehouse they were dueling in caught on fire. Yugi stayed to put the puzzle back together, but fell unconscious when he finished, but Tristan and Joey bravely rescued him and Keith.
"Fine, then here we go!"

"Come on, the Rex will take down any card you play" Rex gloated.
(Not these just attack once and your Rex will be weakened to a point where any card in my hand can defeat it!) Then, I'll play one card on the defense." Tristan announced.
"Fine, now I can take it out." Rex told him.
"Look again! The Mime Wall is still on the field!" Tristan gladly told him.
"Not when I play this card, I play Lightning Hart Arrow (1400/2000)! This card can destroy 1 magic or trap per turn, and this turn I choose that card" Rex announced. Tristan could only watch as the Lightning Hart Arrow shot a recklessly fast arrow that hit the Mime Wall card and shattered it.
"Now that that's out of my way, Rex of Destruction, attack one of those cards, go Raging Magma Blast! The dragon shot out a stream of blazing red fire but before the attack hit.
"It's time to activate these two cards, Spellbinding Circle and the Mask of Weakness." Tristan told him as the cards flipped up and shimmered brightly, and after the aura of light, Rex's dragon had a mask on its body and a circle around it, with its attack lowered to 2400 and played one monster on defense before ending his turn, but Rex was not worried as he plays the monster card Magic Dinosaur, whose effect eliminates all traps that effect Rex, which means Tristan's Spellbinding Circle and Mask of Weakness, so the Dragon's attack stays at 3800. Tristan has 3 monsters on the field and one card to draw, what will it be?
Tristan put his faith into his deck (insert Heart of the Cards stuff) and drew the one card that could win him the match, the Black Skull Dragon! Sacrificing 2 of his monsters as tributes, Tristan is able to summon the Dragon (3200/2500) but Rex is still not worried until Tristan plays Dragon Nails, raising the Dragon to 3800 attacks, equal to Rex's beast. Rex is sure Tristan wouldn't be stupid to attack, but as Tristan calls for an attack, Rex is surprised to see the attack not aimed at the Rex but to the Lightning Hart Arrow (R's lp: 700) Rex forgot he left such an easy target in attack mode and was left in pain as his points down to 700.
"Yeah! Wait to go Tristan! Cream him just as bad as I did" Joey yelled to his friend.
"This duel's not over yet!" Rex declared as he drew a card. "Ah, perfect, I play Card Substitution, which for every card I discard, I can draw a new one!" Rex told the crowd as he sacrificed one card to draw. He smiled "Time for the finale! I play Gambling Table the magic card."
"Oh no! Tristan may just be out of luck" Yugi managed to say in that worried look he gets.
"Why? What's this card do Yuge?" Joey asked his worried friend.
"The Gambling Table puts both monsters on a roulette table and it spins them, but instead of the numbers moving with the spaces, only the spaces move, and one of them will land on red and one on black, and whoever lands on black is destroyed and that's bad for Tristan because if his monster is destroyed Rex will have an easy shot as his life points, but at the same time if Rex's creature is destroyed Tristan will have the duel won. It all comes down to luck now Joey." Yugi explained to his newly worried friend.
"Now Gambling Table, Spin, Spin, Spin!" Rex commanded as the table began to spin. "Okay, hot-shot, you get to call when it stops." Rex explained.
Tristan let the table spin for about 20 seconds when he called for it to stop. It started slowing down, you could tell which one was which and finally one monster was on black.it was.. the Black Skull Dragon.
"Ha! Chump. Your Black Skull is now destroyed." Rex snarled. Tristan could only watched part petrified as his most powerful card was shattered to the graveyard, and it was all because of a little bad luck.
(Now, he has 2250 life points left and one defense monster, if I attacked his defense with the Rex of Destruction and then attacked again, he would still be in the duel, because I have no level four or less cards with 2250 attack. So I'll just play this to stop your defense) Rex thought of his genius plan.
Now I play Flying Kamikiri #1 (1400/900) in attack mode. Go and wipe out the face down card, Poison Pollen, the monster sprayed golden like spores at the face down card, but it stayed on the field and Rex looked in horror as he saw it was the Big Shield Gardena (100/2600). Rex Raptor could not believe what he saw. He had lost the duel.
A/N: So, that's a rap! So Tristan has won 3 finalist cards from Rex Raptor and needs only 7 more. But we'll get back to Tristan in a few chapters. Anyway, time now for some more important questions. Why does Kaiba want the Millennium Puzzle? What about Mai and Bandit Keith's duel? These things will be answered (NOT LYING) in Chapter 6: Machines, Flying Girls, and Missing Brothers
