Chapter 6: Yugi's Ordeal: Beat D2!

HES: Before we begin a few words. Thank you those of you who read and review. Also, in this chapter Yugi, not Yami is dueling (just FYI if you're confused because Yugi's trying to prove himself).

The Kame (Turtle) Game Shop in Domino. A short boy is running around the house frantically looking.

Boy: Where is it? Come on! Where'd I put my deck?

Voice: Here it is Yugi Muto.

Yugi: (turns) Who are you?

Voice: I am D2, modified duel robot. Programmed to defeat Yugi Muto in a duel. Are you not he?

Yugi: Yes I am. (grabs deck from D2 and takes duel disk off of table) Time to duel!

D2: You may go first. Oh yes and before we begin (opens chest panel revealing cards) these. If you are to win they are yours. However, if you are to lose, you must admit defeat to Seto Kaiba for he is the programmer.

Yugi: Awesome! Now to duel!

Yugi 4000/D2 4000

Yugi: I shall start by summoning Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts in attack mode and one card face down.

Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts: 1500/1200

D2: (in computerized mind) He would never summon a monster that weak in attack mode unless his other card is a trap. (speaking) I shall set a monster and two other cards.

Yugi: Then I'll summon Beta the Magnet Warrior in attack mode!

Beta the Magnet Warrior: 1700/1600

Yugi: Now Beta attack his monster!

Beta the Magnet Warrior: (lightning shoots from magnet hands but is reflected)

D2: I activate Mirror Force. Since both of your monsters were in attack mode they are both destroyed.

Yugi: Damn it!

D2: Now I shall sacrifice my set monster in order to summon Jinzo.

Jinzo: 2400/1500 Effect: All trap cards are destroyed (a large android wearing a flowing black rode and metal gauntlets emerged)

D2: Now attack him directly.

Jinzo: (puts his hands together and conjures a ball of pure, red energy. He fires it at Yugi dealing him damage)

Yugi 1600/D2 4000

Yugi: Damn! I will play the magic card Soul Exchange to sacrifice...

D2: Not so fast. I shall activate my face down card, Mystical Space Typhoon. (a large bolt of white lightning pierced Yugi's magic card)

Yugi: I'm wide open! I'll have to set this monster and end my turn.

D2: Pitiful. Master Kaiba would not be pleased with your performance today.

Yugi: I'm just getting unlucky! Anyway Yami isn't here!

D2: Well, I shall cut short your suffering. I play a magic card of my own called Dark Hole. (a swirling vortex engulfed their monsters) Now I shall summon Battle Ox in attack mode.

Battle Ox: 1700/1200 (a large Minotaur emerged wielding a shining battle- ax. He waved his weapon and snorted at Yugi)

D2: Attack him directly.

Battle Ox: (raises ax and slashes at Yugi)

Yugi 0/D2 4000

D2: Truly pathetic. You didn't scratch my life points once. I guess that means you must admit defeat to Kaiba. Engaging sound file...

Yugi: I, Yugi Muto, have lost a duel to Seto Kaiba....

D2: Thank you. Now I must go and report my success to Master Kaiba. (Walks out)

Yugi: (sobs) I lost...(sniffles)...I am pitiful...

HES: Did you enjoy that? I know it isn't the most exciting chapter but trust me, it'll make sense in the story later. Now...

Next Time in Cast to the Shadows: The D2s continue to search for prey. Joey has to duel one of his toughest adversaries ever. Without his friends cheering him on, can he win? And who's this masked stranger following him around? There's a whole lotta surprises in store next time!
