Part VIII: The final test! Knight and Duke versus Yugi and Ryo!
Ryo: Yugi. We have to talk to Leon. and convince him to join us. he is one of the best duelists I have ever seen! If he joins forces with us. It will be easier to stop Knight.
Yugi: You are right. but he doesn't know about the Millennium Items. But maybe I can show him my Puzzle. he will understand, then.
Ryo: Yes. maybe Knight isn't searching for more Millennium Items right now. but he will do it sooner or later.
Yugi: well. then we will search him when this Tournament ends. But we have got a problem. I cannot use my Puzzle.
Ryo: That's true. is you use it, he will activate his Pendant and make it stop.
Yugi: But maybe.
Ryo: What?
Yugi: . if I don't use it directly, Knight won't activate the Pendant. I will play the duel, but Yami will be able to tell me how to play.
(Yami: That's a great idea, Yugi! We will do it that way)
Ryo: We should do it that way. By the way, I have added this three cards to my deck. what do you think about it?
Yugi: Hey! That will make one of my best summons a lot easier!
Ryo: I know. now, let's go to the field.
*meanwhile*
Knight: Duke. let's go. We must win.
The four duelists go to the field. They get in position, and ready their decks. The duel is about to start.
Knight: Aren't you using the Puzzle, Yugi? What a pity. with the power of my Pendant. It will stop working in the same time you try to activate it
Yugi: We should start.
Duke: You are right. let the duel begin!
*meanwhile*
Joey: I finally found you, guys! Has the duel started?
Bakura: It is about to start. take a seat and watch it
Tea: Yes. this will be a great duel. I think Yugi is about to start. I wonder why he isn't using the Puzzle?
Yugi and Ryo: 8000 Knight and Duke: 8000
Yugi: I'll start! A face-down card and a monster in defense position!
Duke: Typical start. I play Vorse Raider and a face-down card! Let's see what is your defending monster.
Yugi: I don't thinks so. Spellbinding Circle! With the new rules, your monster doesn't lose attack points, but I can still immobilize your monster!
Ryo: And now, in my turn, I tribute Gamma, the Magnet Warrior to summon the Dragon of Light (2200/2000) and put another face-down card! Attack!
Duke: I trigger my trap! Skull Dice! Now let's see how many points your Dragon loses. *throws die* Perfect! A 3! Both our monsters die!
Knight: And now in my turn, I'll play Shadow of the Void!
Yugi: Oh, no!
Knight: Don't worry. The new rules changed this card a bit. now, it doesn't get attack points if it inflicts damage directly. however, 1700 LPs surely hurt!
Yugi and Ryo: 6300 Knight and Duke: 8000
(Yami: Yugi. now it is the time to use that card.)
Yugi: (all right *draws*) Perfect! I set another card and then use Mind Control! I tribute your Shadow of the Void to take out the Summoned Skull! Dark Claw!
Yugi and Ryo: 6300 Knight and Duke: 5500
Duke: I set a monster and put a card face-down! Your go!
Ryo: All right, I play Beta, the Magnet Warrior!
Knight: New cards. You reinforced your deck for this duel, it seems.
Ryo: I attack your defending monster with Beta, then.
Duke: Mirror Force! You have just done your last move!
Ryo: You mustn't forget that the other duelists use traps too. Seven Tools of the Bandit! What was your monster?
Duke: Bomb Goblin.
Yugi: What?
Duke: My Bomb Goblin acts exactly as the Man-Eater Bug. so, he is going to throw his bombs to your Skull!
Ryo: I'll set a card then.
Yugi and Ryo: 5300 Knight and Duke: 5500
Knight: Now, let's finish you. I play Exchange.
Yugi: (he also uses that card. if you are playing 2 on 2 it is one of the best cards of Duel Monsters. )
Knight: I play Polymerization to fuse Red-Eyes Black Dragon and Lord of Darkness into the Dark Dragon Knight! (3400) and now, I play Dimension Dice Way to Direct Snap you!
Ryo: Negate Attack.
Knight: (Darn. my combo.) All right. your go!
Yugi: *draws* Perfect! I finished my combo! I play Premature Burial to summon Gamma, the Magnet Warrior into the field!
Knight: Are you going to summon the Dark Magician? That will be useless.
Yugi: And now, using Alpha from my hand, I fuse my three monsters and bring out Valkiryon, the Magna Warrior (3500/3850)
Knight: That monster. it can kill my Dragon Knight!
Yugi: Exactly! Valkyrion! Magna Sword!!!
Yugi and Ryo: 4500 Knight and Duke: 5400
Duke: Darn. I set a monster!
Knight: Duke. do something else!
Duke: I can't do anything else with the cards I have got now.
Ryo: I play Holy Crusader and Stop Defense!
Duke: My Vorse Raider!
Ryo: Strike!!!
Yugi and Ryo: 4500 Knight and Duke: 1900
Knight: I'm starting to get bored. Let's end this duel! I play Shadow Temptation! This new card allows me to get control until the end of turn of any monster and change its attribute to dark! I'll get Valkyrion! First, I kill your Holy Crusader!
Yugi and Ryo: 2900 Knight and Duke: 1900
Ryo: We'll get Valkyrion back next turn!
Knight: Even if I tribute it for my Summoned Skull?
Ryo: Oh, no!
Yugi: (Yami. what should we do?
Yami: Yugi, you have got a card which can solve that in your deck.)
Yugi: (I know. I need Exchange. that way, I would be able to get a card from Ryo's hand. and if he has got.) I must believe in the Heart of the Cards! I'll get the cards I need! *draws* Yes!!! Pot of Greed!!!
Duke: That won't do anything, you fool!
Yugi: Oh, yes, it will! I will draw the two cards I need! *draws* yes!!!!! You are finished!!! I play Exchange! I'll get the End of Darkness from Ryo's hand and play it! and then, Monster Reborn to summon the Dragon of Light!! Attack!!!!
Knight: Nooo!!!!
Yugi and Ryo: 2900 Knight and Duke: 0
Knight: I lost?????? I lost???
Duke: Knight.
Knight: (I.have lost.but. I haven't lost any of my cards. and I will still receive a Locator Card. and now. I know your strategy. this is not a big failure, but a small one.)
Duke: Knight. sorry.
Knight: You don't need to be sorry. that was a great duel. Yugi, Ryo.nice match. We shall play other day.
Mokuba: Yugi and Ryo win the Dual Tournament and receive two locator cards! Knight and Duke, as finalists will receive one! And This ends the Dual Tournament!!!
