Episode 6: Jounochi VS Sieg: A Beautiful Duel, Part 1

________________________________

"Only eight duelist are left." Kaiba thought.

He looked at Block A which had: Sieg, Jounochi, Barry Ginger, and Paul McGreggor.

Block B had: Rebecca, Leon Wilson, Abe, and Ethan Shark.

"Sieg? Me against Sieg..." Jounochi said, smiling with victory.

"Yeah and it's strange too. Everyone's fixing their deck but Sieg." Honda pointed out at Sieg, sitting in the corner.

"Well it didn't seem like he needs to. He beat Haga and Ryusaki at once." Yugi mentioned.

"Heh, like Jounochi is even ready! He looks too nervous." Rebecca teased.

"What?!" Jounochi yelled.

"Come on, Jounochi, you're up against someone who beat Haga and Ryusaki. Not like you couldn't beat one of them in the first place." Honda chuckled.

"I've had it with you guys always trying to put me down!" Jounochi growled, ready to tackle Honda.

"Stop!" Anzu yelled, running infront of Jounochi. Suddenly Jounochi tripped, pushing Anzu into the wall.

"Ack." Anzu said opening her eyes to see Leon beside her. "Leon!"

"Heh heh. Jounochi should be alright. He needs energy like that to duel." Leon smiled.

"You look nervous." Jounochi said.

"I'm just a bit tense. I'm on the line of this tournament, I can't let any of my fans down." Leon said, scratching the back of his head. "I'll have to duel Yugi if I get through but that won't be easy."

"Yanno, Leon, I'm waiting for that too and I know myself it won't be easy." Jounochi smiled, looking down at him.

"Yeah, I just hope everyone does their best." Leon smiled back.

"Ok, your break is over. It's time to get dueling!" Mokuba said as he came into the room. Everyone stood up and began leaving.

"Sieg!" Jounochi said, standing infront of him and putting out his hand. "How bout a hand shake, for a good duel."

But Sieg kept walking, leaving Jounochi in his dust.

"Eh?" Rebecca said, looking back.

"Hey! Are you listening to me?" Jounochi said, reaching out for him and grabbing his arm. Suddenly Sieg pulled away, making Jounochi fall.

"Do not touch me." Sieg growled. "Besides, this isn't a good duel. A good duel would be long but your just pathetic"

"Hey! I was Best Four in Battle City!" Jounochi yelled. "I'm one of the best duelist and I'll prove it!"

"Come on Jounochi." Honda said. "He's nothing."

Sieg kept walking and Jounochi followed.

"Yugi!" Mokuba called out.

"Mokuba..." Yugi said, turning around.

"Since the whole incident at the Kaiba Dome, just let your friends know to be on a watch. I doubt anyone from the tournament could hack into the system but just in case, keep an eye out." Mokuba noted, running off.

"I'll do just that!" Yugi yelled.

As Yugi and the gang left, Vivian came out from the girl's bathroom, smiling.

Back at the Blue Eyes Arena, Kaiba's Guard, had been announcing the duels. "The four duels which are taking place are now listed!" The Guard announced. "Jounochi VS Sieg at the Volcano Theme, Barry VS Paul at the Music House, Rebecca VS Abe at the Ferris Wheel, and Ethan VS Leon at the Haunted House!"

Jounochi had gotten off a small ram which led into the middle of a volcano and a small island surrounded by lava. Sieg had been waiting at one side.

Both Duelist met into the middle and exchanged decks, shuffling them and giving them back. "You will regret for what you said before." Jounochi growled.

Sieg ignored him and walked back to his side of the field while Jounochi stayed on his side.

The other 6 duelist then start their duels.

"I'll start!" Jounochi announced, drawing his next card and looking at his hand.

"Yeah! Go Jounochi!" Honda cheered

"Psycho Shocker and Red Eyes!?" Jounochi said in his mind. "You gotta be kidding me!"

"This doesn't look good." Yugi thought.

"Come on, Jounochi. Don't leave me to a boring duel." Sieg smiled.

"I'll set a card face down and end my turn!" Jounochi announced.

"Jounochi!" Honda yelled, slapping his forehead.

"Draw..." Sieg announced. "Activate Charity Angel."

Sieg drew his three cards then discarded two cards. "Eh?" Jounochi thought.

"One card face down, turn end." Sieg announced.

"Alright, Jounochi! You're lucky now!" Honda cheered.

"Bahahaha!" Jounochi laughed inside. "He has to share the pain I had to suffer on my first turn."

"I don't think Sieg had any monster's to summon either..." Yugi thought as The Other Yugi appeared.

"Right... I bet Sieg is hiding more..." The Other Yugi said.

Sieg looked up at the corner, seeing a security camera and smiling. Suddenly he looked down at his watch, seeing the hand move to 12.

"Hmph..." Kaiba said but suddenly the screen went red showing 'Error'. "What?!"

"Draw!" Jounochi announced suddenly feeling rumbling. Suddenly streams of lava flew into the sky.

"Gah! Jounochi!" Yugi called out.

"Ack hat!" Jounochi said, dodging the lava and getting his shoe on fire.

"Hmmm..." Rebecca thought, looking up at Abe which his monkey just drew a card for him. Suddenly the Ferris wheel came to a fast stop, sending both duelist onto the ground.

"Graahh!" Abe yelled, falling.

Just then the Ferris wheel started again, but going in faster speed and sending them screaming.

"Draw..." Paul McGreggor announced, drawing his card. Suddenly at the corner of both duelist eye's they saw the curtain fall down, leaving them in the dark.

"Huh?" Leon said, watching ghosts and spirits fly in the way of their duel.

"Sir! We have a problem!" A security guard said to Kaiba.

"I know, I'm getting to that." Kaiba said, pressing some buttons on the computer.

Suddenly he remembered something, back at a party when he was young a young boy came up to him, telling him the party was boring.

Just then the lights flickered and somebody had said that there was a hacker in the main computer system and the young boy just laughed, saying it was easy.

Kaiba was only young but he remembered it. "It must be...." He growled.

"Alright!" Jounochi said, looking at his card. "Now! I summon Landstar Gunman! (900/1200) I'll then activate this, Landstar Shot!"

Suddenly Jounochi's Landstar Gunman's shot gun transformed into a giant gatling gun and it's attack points rose to 1500.

"Alright! A strong monster!" Honda said.

"Landstar Gunman, direct attack!" Jounochi announced but then suddenly stopping. "What's that!"

Sieg had activated a trap card. "This is Judgement of Boudan. It stops your attack and allows me to switch a card in my hand with a card ontop of my deck." Sieg said, drawing his card and placing another card on top of his deck. "Plus, your battle phase ends."

"What?!" Jounochi said, grumbling. "Turn end."

"Draw..." Sieg announced. "Now I activate Pot of Greed."

Jounochi watched Sieg draw his two cards. "Heh." He said.

"Now, I activate Goddess of Guardian Elda. I can discard one card from my hand to place a trap card face down on the field, from my graveyard." Sieg announced. "It's simple really. This magic card has three key factors. The future is where I discard my card in my hand. Past is the card I had used earlier. And present, which is the card now on the field!"

Suddenly a woman with a wand and a long scarf appeared behind Sieg and began waving her wand, sending pink cherry blossoms. A card slipped out of Sieg's graveyard holster and Sieg took the card, placing it face down on the field.

"It's Judgement of Boudan... I won't be able to attack next turn." Jounochi growled.

"Turn end." Sieg announced.

"It's weird because Sieg hasn't summoned any monsters yet" Anzu said. "I wonder if he even has any monsters."

"I bet Sieg is waiting for that magic card, Walkuren Ritt." Yugi said in his mind.

"Yes that is probably why he had played Judgement of Boudan in the first place." The Other Yugi mentioned.

Sieg turned his head, looking at the same security camera. "Come on! Be serious here! We're here to duel, not looking around at the fun theme park!" Jounochi yelled.

Sieg smirked. "I don't have to be serious with a clown like you, Jounochi." Sieg said.

"What?! Why you little...." Jounochi grumbled. "Draw!"

Jounochi smiled, now having a monster to sacrifice. "Jounochi is acting up again, he must have something good by now!" Honda said.

"Now! I sacrifice Landstar Gunman to summon this, Android Psycho Shocker! (2400/1500)" Jounochi announced.

"What?!" Sieg said in shock.

"Now you won't be able to use Judgement of Boudan!" Jounochi said, pointing at Sieg with victory. Suddenly the android's eyes began to glow and unleashed a red blast, destroying Sieg's trap card. "Now! Android Psycho Shocker.... Direct attack!"

The android formed it's hands together, forming a black energy sphere in it's hands and sending it flying at Sieg. Sieg shielded himself as the blast surrounded him, reducing his life points to 1600.

"How could he....." Sieg growled, both angry and surprised.

"Alright, Jounochi! You're in the lead!" Honda cheered.

"Now Jounochi.... You want me to be serious in this duel..." Sieg smirked. "I will!"

"Good, turn end!" Jounochi said.

"Draw!" Sieg yelled without hesitation. "Now! Activate magic card.... Walkuren Ritt!"

"Oh!" Yugi said in shock as well as everyone else.

"Ack!" Jounochi said in shock as a bright light began to glow in the roof of the volcano room.
