Chapter 7: Blake and the Bugs
PREVIOUSLY ON YU-GI-OH!
Seto Kaiba was remembering his reason to fight in the Battle City tournament. Mokuba's soul and mind were trapped in the Shadow Realm. It was all that one man's fault.Marik's. If he would have never started this mess, Seto Kaiba could be back in his home with Mokuba, but he couldn't. Kaiba stole Ra and the Millennium Rod but could not use it's magic properly, thus not restoring Mokuba. But another magic, the Millennium Puzzle could restore him. Elsewhere, Bandit Keith and Mai Valentine were dueling and the duel only lasted a short while before Mai easily became victorious. But Kaiba has learned to use the magic of the Millennium Rod to control people's minds and Bandit Keith was just one of his many victims.
Seto Kaiba was sitting in his chair, as one of his servants; the defeated Rex Raptor approached him.
"Master Kaiba" the mind controlled slave robotically stated.
"Yes, slave?" Kaiba answered in that oh-so-powerful voice of his.
"Master, please spare me. I tried my best against Tristan. His deck was just too powerful." Rex pleaded.
"I have no use for weak duelists." Was Kaiba's only reply. "What would you want me to do?"
"Master, you being an excellent duelist, maybe you could supply me with some of your cards." Rex spoke.
"MY CARDS?" Kaiba growled, but calmed back down. "Sure slave, here is a brand new deck for you, built just for you, and just look at the card on the top."
"A Blue Eyes White Dragon!" "Rex" spoke.
"Yes, now here are 15 finalist cards so you'll be guaranteed a spot in the final rounds. Do NOT lose my Blue Eyes to someone, or your mind will feel pain like no other when I isolate it in the Shadow Realm! Now, I tire of you. Go do something useful." Kaiba told him.
"Yes Master" was "Rex's" only reply.
Mai Valentine was proudly walking away from her duel with Bandit Keith, the victor and the proud owner of 10 finalist cards. It was the second day of the tournament and Mai had 5 times a much cards as she began with yesterday. (Take it easy Mai, you've got to go to the top this time, not just for the fame or money this time, but if I could obtain those three cards, I'd be unstoppable. My deck would be a collector's item when I die.) Mai thought as she walked on.
(Hey it Yugi and his little squad) Mai saw out of a corner of her eye.
"Yugi! Yoo-hoo!" She shouted across the street.
"Hey guys, look it's Mai" Yugi answered, seeing who it was. "Hey Mai, it's great to see you again, whoa!" Yugi told her seeing as how many finalist cards she had already. "Mai, you've gotten THAT many?" Yugi questioned her.
"Yea, it was a cinch!" Mai responded cheerfully.
"Oh great, look it's Yugi" a voice came from nowhere?
"What do you want.Weevil." Yugi responded to the shadow that was clearly seen now.
"I've come to give you another thrashing!" Weevil commanded.
"Yugi doesn't have to duel you, but I'd be glad to take you on!" Blake proudly announced.
"Fine, I'd need a good warm up match because I'm going straight to the top! (insert Weevil laugh)" Weevil told him. "I'll bet my 11 finalist cards."
"Fine then, I'll be betting my 6 finalist cards. Let's Duel!" Blake stated getting out his deck filled with dragons, spellcasters and rocks- Oh My! His deck had other monsters too, like warriors but they were mainly for sacrifice.
"My Insect Army will clobber you now and Joey and Yugi in the finals!! You'll never defeat me, you'll be beaten before we even start!" Weevil happily stated.
~~~~ COMMERCIAL BREAK~~~~~~~
HERE WE GO!!
THE DUEL Blake played 2 cards face down and then summoned Alligator's Sword (1500/1200) in attack mode. Weevil played 1 card face down before playing Killer Needle (1200/1000) in defense mode. Blake played the Judgment Hand (1400/700) in attack mode and attacked Killer Needle as Weevil activated and explained his trap card.
"It's the Time Bomb trap card, you just had to attack!" Weevil chattered. "Your Judgment Hand will be destroyed as soon as I end my turn. So, now I'll end my turn!" And with that, the Judgment Hand vanished.
"Gone, but not forgotten" Weevil sarcastically sympathized.
"You may have cleared the field of my monster Weevil, but you've forgotten one thing" Blake told the snickering duelist.
"Oh yeah! What's that?" the now angry duelist shouted. "Oh no." Weevil started, noticing the stupidness of his last move. He was so caught up in destroying Blake's monster; he forgot to summon a monster. (Oh, I can't be so stupid, another move like that, and I'll be out of the duel.) Weevil thought as Blake played Crawling Dragon (1600/1400) and had both his monsters attack Weevil (W Lp: 900)
"This duel isn't over!" Weevil announced. "I'll play Pinch Hopper on the defense and one card face down. Your move"
"Fine then, I'll sacrifice both monsters to summon Cosmic Phantom (2550/2300) on the attack, Cosmic Phantom, destroy Pinch Hopper, go now! Shadow Ball attack!
" No, Blake, you just fell into a trap of Weevil's!" Yugi shouted to him. But it was too late. The Cosmic Phantom rose in the air and created a ball of evil energy and hurled it at the Pinch Hopper and it vanished in a vibrant flash of light.
"Ha, just as I knew you would, you fool!" Weevil yelled to Blake. "When my Pinch Hopper gets sent to the graveyard, I can play any monster in my hand!"
"Any monster?!" Blake asked, partly shocked and partly angry at his foolishness.
"Did I stutter?" Weevil sarcastically asked. "Now, since I can play any monster I think I'll play this one Weevil said as he drew. I'll summon an all-powerful monster that took me months after Battle City to find, but Pegasus created it as a base card, and it's base form is so rare there are only 20 in the world!! So, time to meet." Weevil said as he slapped down a card.
"Oh no!" Blake gasped, realizing what it was.
"Oh Yes! Time to meet my Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth! (3500/3000), as a replica of the Great Moth appeared, but it was bigger, uglier, deadlier, and stronger than the Great Moth. Now my insect, wipe out his Cosmic Phantom, go Deadly Gust, and with that the PUGM flapped its mighty wings and a raging, powerful wind overwhelmed the Cosmic Phantom and destroyed him. (B Lp: 3050) Now, Blake has a super-powered moth to destroy and there was just one card in his deck that could destroy it. Just one card.
"Oh, what will you do now?" Weevil questioned. "With my moth overpowering you and all."
"I'm gonna fight on" was Blake' only response. "I'll play 2 cards face down and the Big Shield Gardna on the defense (100/2600).
"No matter, my moth will splatter it, want to see! Well here, let me give you a demo! Deadly Gust, now!" Weevil joked. Once more the moth sent a wind force towards the Big Shield but Blake had other plans.
"Reveal Magic Card, Chorus of Sanctuary, which will raise my Big Shield's defense to 3100." Blake proudly announced. Weevil looked on confused. (What good would that do? It was still 400 points weaker than my Great Moth) Weevil thought.
"Hey, I'm not done yet." Blake interrupted Weevil's thought. "Reveal second Magic Card, Shield & Sword!"
(No!) Thought Weevil. (Any card but that one! Any) With the Magic of Shield and Sword on the field, each monster's attack was swapped for its defense points and Weevil's attack backfired. The Great Moth may have been at 3000 attack points but the Big Shield had the edge with 3100.
"And now, Big Shield Gardna! Attack with Super Flash Slash!" Blake commanded. And obeying the monster whipped out a sword and flew at the Great Moth and past it, and when the Gardna reached Weevil, his moth shattered. (W's Lp: 800). Blake knew what the risk of that attack was. Shield and Sword's effect was over. The Gardna now only had 100 attack points and Weevil could wipe out a good half of his life points, if he was lucky.

~~~~~~ COMMERCIALS END ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"My turn!" Weevil declared "and I'll play one card face down and throw Typhoon Dragon in attack mode (1750/1200), and Weevil's monster appeared resembling a Serpent Night Dragon, but lighter in color, and also played one card face down. "It's your move, and hurry up so I can crush you."
"Tell me something Weevil" Blake demanded, as it just hit him.
"What!?" Weevil spat back.
"Why do you have 11 locator cards and you only need 10 to enter the finals?" Blake questioned him.
"Well, if you must know, in the town of Spade, about 5 miles away from here, there is a shop and this one shopkeeper knew of my reputation as the Regional Champion. He offered me a dueling deck with the most powerful insect cards in all of Duel Monsters and with powerful magics and traps that will let me summon them without tributes. While my opponents try to summon decent monsters I will wipe out their tributes, one by one, until I get at their life points. But the shopkeeper told me that he was a duelist as well and he would love to enter Battle City finals. He had stolen a duel disk from Kaiba and just needed to get into the finals. So, he made me a deal, if I could get him 10 locator cards, then he would give me that deck, absolutely free. So there is your answer, I NEED that dueling deck! Failure is just not an option!" Weevil shoved in Blake's face.
"Some honor you have Weevil." Was the only thing that came from Blake. "Dueling just so someone else can enter the finals. What is that? How could you even agree to those terms. Your hard work and deck are going to win locator cards for someone else? That's just wrong, Weevil. How could you?" Blake continued.
"Easy, I just do it!" Weevil shouted sarcastically. "But enough about me, make your move!"
(Oh great, nothing in my hand can defeat that monster. I'll just have to play defensive.) Blake thought.
"Alright, Weevil! I'll play one monster on the defense!" Blake declared, as the card appeared, face down. (Big Shield Gardna should get him.) He thought with a smirk.
"Showtime!" Weevil mouthed and slapped down the Cocoon of Evolution in attack mode (0/2000).
(Why play that monster?) Blake thought. (Unless, he's trying to get another moth out!) "I'll stomp your moth!" Blake yelled across the arena.
"What moth?" Weevil questioned.
"Just keep on playing" was the only thing coming from Blake. (Acting like he has no intention of summoning another moth.) Blake was thinking. But Blake's face turned to horror as Weevil activated his face down card.
(No!) Thought Blake. (Anything but that card! It just couldn't be!)
A/N: Kinda long chappy. Oh well, life will go on! PS. Credit goes to the Mighty Hiei for the Typhoon Dragon in this chapter. Well, I've.got to um.go. continue working diligently. Suckers!
*Runs* *Falls* *Cursing* OOPS!! HERE'S A PREVIEW:
So, Blake seems really worried about Weevil's face down card, especially when he uses it to his advantage.GREATLY, so anyway, you'll have to see how this tips things in Weevil's favor in the conclusion of this series: Chapter 8: Bugging Out
