I Am The Dark Magician Girl

Wahhh... I had a huge author's note here with replies to a few of my readers... And now it's all gone... T.T

"All right, Magical Girl, here's the rules," the Harpy Lady said, twirling her Rose Whip around her hand. We had agreed to Duel in a dry field near—but not too close—the Graveyard. Or course, we couldn't go too close. "Since we're not playing with Lifepoints—"

"We aren't?" I asked, genuinely surprised. "I'm not sure how you Duel that way. Does it mean that......... Hang on........." I stopped and tapped a finger on my lips in thought. She decided that I was done talking.

"What it means is that the only way you can lose is if you can't fight anymore or just forfeit." She said impatiently. "And if you're not used to it, just deal with it!"

"Are you sure you're not Maya in disguise?" I said, sighing. She was getting meaner by the second. Or maybe she was just like this whenever she Dueled.

"My name is Elly," snapped the Harpy. "But to you, it's still Harpy Lady." I'll call her Harpy Lady, but it's still Elly to me. "Begin the Duel."

Eep! I wasn't ready! "Skull, Graceful!" I cried, jumping away from her talons. I got no reply. Great, this is just perfect.

"Stop running away!" She screeched, running towards me. Ooh, did I mention I was running backwards to dodge those claws? "You coward, how do you expect to win any Duels this way?!"

"I—I just do!" I shrieked as I tripped and fell on my back. "Hya!" She didn't have time to stop, so I kicked up. My feet made contact with her stomach and sent her in the air.

Oops, Harpies can fly. She landed safely and gracefully in front of me. I scrambled back on my feet with both hands gripped tightly on my wand. "Nicely done," Harpy Lady said, stretching her whip so I could see every thorn on it. "By the way, if it makes you feel any better, when I Duel, I leave all friendships outside the Dueling arena. So I Duel this way, even against my friends and family." Yeah, I suppose that makes me feel just the smallest teeniest bit better. Although, when she Duels Maya, who usually wins?

Note to self: Never ever let your guard down when Dueling with the Harpy Lady.

While I was thinking, she took that second to attack. I found myself somewhat wrapped up, thanks to her Rose Whip.

"Ow!" The thorns! I was tied so tightly that they were starting to pierce into my skin!

"Well, well, this was easier than I had thought," she said, smirking oh so confidently. She had the other end of the whip in her hand, and yanked back hard. All the air was knocked out of me as I hit the ground. "This Duel is over!" She declared, leaping into the air. She soared towards me with her talons in front of her, ready to cut me open.

"N—No way!" I rolled over just in time for most of me to avoid her claws. Dirt flew everywhere as they scraped the ground. I sat up. "Oh....... Wow." I whispered hoarsely as the dust settled. There were three fissures on the ground where I had been lying on a split second ago. I looked at my arm. There was a deep scratch on the armor.

"I have to hand it to you for dodging that," said Elly who was already on her feet. "But sitting around won't get you anywhere, you know?" She gave the Rose Whip a sharp tug upwards, pulling me up. "Because I have a feeling that you're hold back." She was trying to pull me towards her, but I held my ground.

"Oh! You want me to quit?" I asked, taking a deep breath. "That's fine with me!" I yelled, running towards her just as she was pulling back. I rammed myself into her with full force. She gave a startled yell as she fell backwards. I pulled the Rose Whip out of her hands. So now her attack points went down a little. But......... Wait! She was wearing armor, making her a Cyber Harpy!

"Not......... Not bad," she said, as she slowly got up. "Not bad at all. Seems like you've done some training." Her eyes glazed over for a moment. She shook her head. "I'll be back. For now, you can Duel my sisters."

"Huh?!" She was gone. I guess she was summoned to a Duel. Which means that I could be too. I frowned. It seems like Joey and Yugi are on a team. Well, I'm guessing that Yugi chose Dark Magician for his Deck Master, so that means Master's busy at the moment. Oh yeah, the Harpy's sister. "So where is she?"

"Didn't you hear?" I looked up. There she was! Hovering a few feet above me. "She said 'sisters'."

Something blew past me. Or someone. I looked at my hands. The Rose Whip was gone!

Note to self: Remember all notes to self. Including that one mentioned earlier!

"I think I'll take this back. Do you mind?" Another Harpy asked. She was holding the whip in her talons.

"Whoa, whoa!" I exclaimed angrily. "Two against one! That's not fair!!"

"Well, we were summoned because Elly was equipped with Elegant Egotist," one of them said thoughtfully. "So technically, it is fair. I suppose you could do the same........."

"Really?" I asked. I can't remember any other spell or trap cards I could possibly use besides the Dark Sage Stone. And I can't ask Master for help right now! "Yow!" I cried, leaping away just in time. "Hey! I was thinking!" I yelled at the Harpy who just attacked me.

"When we work as a team, we don't give our opponents time to think!" The other giggled as she whizzed past me, knocking me down. "It's a great advantage, don't you think?"

"Ow..." I got up, only to be tripped and to fall down again. Arg, I'm not fast enough for this. They're much slower than Maya at least. But then again, so am I. Come on! Think, Dark Magician Girl!

"Come on! Get up, Dark Magician Girl!" one of them shrieked excitedly. "Or do you want us to finish you off right now?"

I clenched my wand tightly. She was running towards me at full speed. Okay, so I'm not as fast. But maybe I could attack her before she gets me......... "Dark Burning Attack!" I pointed my wand at her, concentrating my power and channeling it through my weapon. A wave of dark magic burst from its tip. Yes! It blasted her backwards!!

"Agh!" She clutched her right wing and winced. I'm guessing I burned her......... "That wasn't your magic! It couldn't possibly be so strong!"

I looked at her in confusion before remembering that the Magician of Black Chaos helped me. It wasn't stronger; I still have 2000 attack points. It just felt more painful, I guess.

My wand started wriggling around in my hand. "Oh, no." Not now! It flew up as if some unknown force had just yanked it up. "No!" I yelled as I was pulled into the air. I looked back. The uninjured sister was standing on the same spot that I had been a second ago with her claws stretched out in front of her. Well, what do you know? My wand just saved me!

Never mind that! My wand started acting up again. I wanted to let go, but my hands refused to cooperate! It was like it was trying to get rid of me!

"Looks like somebody needs to discipline her wand," Harpy number two said in a teasing voice. Man, this was so embarrassing! "Hi, Sis!"

'Sis'? Somebody slugged me! "Kyah!" Thank Ra I was three feet in the air! When I hit the ground, my wand jerked out of my hand and zoomed around for a few nanoseconds before 'dying' again.

"I told you I'd be back!" my original opponent said smirking. "By the way, your friend Mystical Elf says hi." Oh great! Now it's three against one! I ran over and picked up my wand. It was quivering. When I turned around, the three sisters were just a few inches away from me, right about to attack!

I grinned.

"I'll see you later!" I said just as I was summoned.

All right! Saved by the......... Duel? I did the same pose as last time before studying the Duel. Master was just behind Yugi—no, Yami. Yami and his friend, Joey, was it? Anyways, they were Dueling another one of Yugi's friends, Tristan? Hm......... I must've missed something here. Uh-oh. They've both got less Lifepoints than him!

Okay, he just told me to attack! Here goes! Dark Burning Attack!! I smiled happily as I returned to Yami's side of the field. I dealt 2000 points of damage; Tristan now had less than half of his Lifepoints.

And yet Tristan was happy? Oh, I see now. He had a spell card on the field. From what Yami said, after three turns, he could summon a really powerful monster from his deck! And the three turns have past!

Where's Skull and Graceful when you need them?

Once again, a huge AN, and it's all gone now...

But I just thought about changing the fic's name, and I had done some editing on the first few chapters.

R&R, please!
