United We Stand
Yami:4600 Vendick:140050
"Yug's down by some serious lifepoints"said Joey.
"Yugi"said Dejiro weakly.
Jane watched on helplessly.
"C'mon Yugi, if my brother is putting so much faith in you then so will I"thought Jane.
"Well Yugi, so what's next?"
"This duel just started Vendick! Don't gloat yet"
Vendick gave a slight giggle.
"I know that, and you're down to almost half your lifepoints allready, that's why
I'm rather shocked to hear you as the king of games. I've had more difficulty defeating
my former brother at checkers when I was nine years old"
"Former brother! You really are a sick man Vendick, so I'm going to give you
a cold slap of reality"
"Just try it"said Vendick.
"Here we go!"said Yami drawing.
Yami snickered, making Vendick growl.
"What's the smile for?"
"Because I got you just where I want you. I play Monster Reborn, bring Buster Blader
back from the card Graveyard!"
From the light the fallen creature emerged.
"NO!"
"Now it gains 500 attack points for every dragon on your field or graveyard, which means
even when your monster's destroyed it'll keep Buster Blader's power up. Now attack!"
Vendick:12000 Yami:4600
"Sweet!"said Joey.
"Awesome! Yugi's got this guy"thought Dejiro.
"Go Yugi"cheered Jane.
"I wouldn't ce too happy, because you've fallen into my trap"
"WHAT!"gasped everyone else.
"Reveal Numerous Healer. If any damage is inflicted on my lifepoints, my lifepoints raise by
1000"
"NO!"
Vendick:120000 Yami:4600
"Yugi will never get his lifepoints down at this rate"said Joey.
"Vendick sure knows Duel Monsters well, Yugi's in for a rough match"said Kaiba.
"You're telling me"said Joey.
"C'mon, Vendick can't win, not now! They've all come so far, if they die because of me, I'll
never forgive myself"thought Jane.
Vendick drew.
"I sacrafice my face down monster in order to summon Marie the Fallen one of defence mode"
It had an ATK of 1700 and DEF of 1200.
"I end my turn"
"What's he up to"thought Yugi drawing.
Everyone else was as displeased as Yami when they could tell he didn't get a good draw.
"I don't have any low level monsters in my hand, I can't get a direct assault on him. I'll just have
to wipe out his monster"thought Yugi.
"Buster Blader, attack Marie the Fallen one!"
Buster Blader easily smashed through the monster, which got a simple "Thank you" from Vendick.
"Now what!"gasped Jane.
"I don't like this"said Joey.
"By sending Marie the Fallen one to the graveyard, you activated her special effect. As long as she remains in the graveyard,
I will gain 200 lifepoints every turn"
"NO!"
"Now he'll never wipe out Vendick's lifepoints!"said Dejiro.
"He's right for once. I draw, and I get 200 lifepoints from Marie the Fallen one"
Vendick:122000 Yami:4600
"Now I play Raigeki, which wipes out all monsters on your side of the field"
"NO! I'm wide open!"
"Exactly, now I summon Blade Knight!"
It had an ATK of 1600 and DEF of 1700.
"Direct attack!"
Vendick:122000 Yami:3000
"Then I play another Sebek's Blessing, taking the lifepoints you lost and add them to mine"
Vendick:138000 Yami:3000
"He'll never win"thought Jane with a tear.
Yami looked up and gasped slightly, however looked away and closed his eyes solemnly.
"I know how she feels, it seems like all hope has been destroyed. But I can't give in.
I promise you Jane, Dejiro, I'll stop this psychopath from tearing your family apart any
further"thought Yugi.
"Here he goes, let's hope Yug has a plan"said Joey.
"Let's see what Yugi can do now"thought Kaiba.
Yami drew, and another smile came to his face.
"Now watch this! I play Magic Burial, giving up just 800 lifepoints, I can bring back a monster.
So Merie the Fallen one is back!"
"That's can't be!"gasped Vendick.
"Oh it can, and now I summon SKilled Dark Magician"
It had an ATK of 1900 and DEF of 1200.
"Now Merrier, attack!"
Vendick:136000 Yami:2200
"Now direct attack Skilled Dark Magician!"
Vendick:127000 Yami:2200
"Now for skilled Dark Magician's special effect, allowing me to summon
Dark Magician to the field!"
It had an ATK of 2500 and DEF of 2100.
"Direct attack!"
Vendick:10200 Yami:2200
"What a comeback!"thought Jane.
"Who's my main man! You sick it to him Yugi!"
"I can't believe it! In just one turn he brought me down by so much!
Oh well, but a small loss"thought Vendick drawing.
"My first task should be to get Marie back into the graveyard, but without risking
more lifepoints"thought Vendick.
"First I summon Little Swordsman of the Aisle!"
It had an ATK of 800 and DEF of 1300.
"Then I play Cannon Blaster. It only works on a monster with less then a thousand points,
however it raises it's attack by 2500, making my monster's attack 3300. Destroy Marie the Fallen One!"
"If he gets Marie back in the graveyard, it's over!"gasped Joey.
"I activate Shift, it can switch the target of your attack to one of my monsters, Skilled
Dark Magician"
"Are you serious!"gasped Dejiro.
"I see"thought Kaiba.
Vendick:10200 Yami:800
"Pathetic, you would've lost far less if you made your Dark Magician the target. Are you that
desperate to keep Marie from the Graveyard, how sorrowful"
Yami drew.
"Now I play Magical Card Exastivation, discarding two cards, I can bring one card back from my graveyard, I pick
Buster Blader. Now I play Polmerasation to fuse Buster Blader and Dark Magician to create Black Paldain!"
It had an ATK of 3400 and DEF of 2900.
"You planned this! That's why you had your Skilled Dark Magician take the blow!"
"Correct, now attack Black Paldian!"
Vendick:10100 Yami:800
"His effect makes you lose 500 extra lifepoints when he attacks"
Vendick:9600 Yami:800
"Now attack Marie the Fallen one!"
Vendick:7900 Yami:800
"He's wiping the floor with Vendick! Yug can win now!"said Dejiro.
"Keep going!"said Jane.
"Now I place two cards face down. Your move"
Vendick drew.
"Now I play Heavy Storm! Destroy his-
"Activate Magic Jammer! Discarding one card I deactivate your magic card!"
Vendick snickered.
"Just what I needed. Now I can play this without worry, it's called Dark Hole and it destroys
all monsters!"
"They're all gone!"gasped Yami.
"Yes, now Marie is back where she belongs. Now I place Mysterious Puppetere in defence mode"
It had an ATK of 1000 and DEF of 1500.
"Then I play Monster Reborn to revive Tri Horned Dragon!"
"He's wide open!"gasped Dejiro.
"It's all over"thought Jane.
"Attack!"
"Wrong, activate Mirror Force! Reflect his attack back!"
Tri Horned Dragon was destroyed, but Vendick didn't seem to care.
"Now I place one card face down, and end my turn"
Yami drew.
"Well at least it's a monster"thought Yugi.
"I place Silver Fang in defence mode!"
It had an ATK of 1200 and DEF of 800.
"Mysterious Puppetere, activate special effect!"
"WHAT!"
"Every time a monster is played, I gain 500 lifepoints, thanks for the help"
Vendick:8400 Yami:800
"Is that it?"
"No, then I play Dian Kenta the Cure Master, and raise my lifepoints by 1000. Now go!"
Vendick drew.
"Now that Merrier is back at home safe, I get 200 more lifepoints"
Vendick:8600 Yami:1800
"Now I place two cards face down and summon Mad Sword Beast!"
It had an ATK of 1400 and DEF of 1200.
"Even if your monster is in defence mode, it'll lose lifepoints when Made Sword Beast destroys it anyway.
Oh, and did I forget my puppetere?"
Vendick:9100 Yami:1800
"Now attack Mad Sword Beast!"
Vendick:9100 Yami:1200
"Not again"thought Jane.
"C'mon Yug, whoop him!"said Joey.
"Go Yugi!"said Dejiro.
"He's in trouble"thought Kaiba.
"Now what? His lifepoints are just gonna keep rising, and he's allready taken out most of my best
cards"thought Yugi.
"This is it Yugi, you have one move. If you don't do something this turn, the match is over"
"He's right, this could be it"thought Yugi.
