Time for a quick recap of the last chapter, but first! I do not own Magic
the Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh, or bubble-gum, I do however own this story! It is
a work of my imagination so it may not comply with some Magic stories or
card effects/costs/power and toughness.
Anyway, recapping, Cailen is in a Magic tournament, it is the first round against a smirking kid named Zach with a red/white deck, Cailen using a red/green land gain deck. Lets begin!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
They decided to let Zach go first, on his turn he played a mountain and used it to summon a Crazed Goblin. Crap Cailen thought reviewing his first hand (Explosive Growth, Frenzied Tilling, Wirewood Guardian, Sandstone Warrior, Titanic Bulvox, Fangreen Hunter, Mountain, and a Forest. Cailen opened with a mountain. On Zachs turn he played a Plains and attacked with the Crazed Goblin.
Hoping for the Yavimaya Barbarian, Cailen drew. No luck, Serpentine Kavu, he played a Forest and ended his turn. The entire while Zach had been smirking, luckily he was also doing badly, but now he had two Mountains and a Plains. With crazed goblin he brought Cailen to eight-teen. Come on ya bastard Cailen thought as he drew the Dragonspeaker Shaman. As he was about to discard the Wirewood Guardian he remembered it had forest cycling, he played two mana to use it. He immediately played it.
Zach was no longer smirking Ha, he has a crappy hand too! Cailen thought. He was right, but the crazed goblin still brought Cailen down again. Cailen drew the Ancient Ooze. He found it hard to concentrate, there was too much noise, yelling and shouting and such. He also noticed "Action lines" moving around like crazy and realized it was the Yu-Gi-Oh players, If I only had some bubble gum, I could kick-ass and chew bubble-gum, but all I have are these peppermints!
At the end of his turn, Cailen discarded the Serpentine Kavu, he had another one anyway. Luckily though, Zach was having trouble too, but he still had the god-damned Crazed goblin which kept shaving the life off.
As he was about to draw, something began to itch at the back of his head, something about Zach reminded him of something, but what? Come on lady luck! Luck wasn't with him though, he had something to play, but it was a creature enchantment (reflexes), he decided to discard the Bulvox. When Zach drew, the slight smile still on his face disappeared completely. After the Crazed Goblin attack, Zach discarded a Bonethorn Valesk.
Cailens head still itched as he drew a forest, which was immediately played One more land. He hoped Zachs bad luck would continue, but it diddn't as he played a plains and attacked with the Crazed Goblin.
Cailen= 14 life Zach= 20 life
Only needing one more land, Cailen drew his Journey of Discovery. He played it to move two mountains to his hand and played one. Still needing to discard, he got rid ofExplosive Growth.
Zach played a mountain and attacked. Cailen drew his Assault/Battery card, played a mountain and played the Fangreen Hunter, and gave it Reflexes. All the while his head itched. Zach looked very worried as he tapped red one for a Goblin Raider. Sadly for him, his Crazed goblin had to attack, it was blocked by the Hunter. Getting some momentum, Cailen drew a mountain and played it. Than using red green three he played Frenzied Tilling, to destroy one of Zachs mountains, and play a forest. Suddenly, the itching stopped, he turned around and thanked the little girl that scratched his head. Suddenly, he realized it. He used to baby-sit Zach. This immediately reassured him he would win, Zach only beat Cailen once, even then he had gotten lucky.
Zach, worried by the smirk that appeared on Cailens face, drew. Then, played a plains and payed white three he used Recuperate to gain six life and ended his turn.
Zach= 26 life Cailen= 13 life
Cailen, still happy the itching was gone drew one of his best cards, the Scaled Wurm. Looking over his mana he realized that he could play it, he did, and attacked with the Fangreen Hunter. Zach was getting his smirk back as he played a Mountain and played the Goblin Psychopath.
Zach always liked that card, even though it sucks. Cailen drew, hoping to continue his roll. He did, he played the Wall of Granite he had drawn, and activated Battery to put a 3/3 Green Elephant into play. Zach played another Mountain and grew the largest smirk ever on his face! He tapped all of his mana to put spirit link on the Psychopath and play a Ridgeline Rager. Aftre drawing, Cailen was able to play one of his favourite cards, The Birds of Paradise, he also played the Sandstone Warrior. To end his turn he attacked with the Scaled Wurm, which was blocked by the Rager. When Zach drew, the largest grin ever appeared. He played a mountain and equipped the Psychopath with not one, but two giant Strengths. This is some bad shit! Cailen thought.
Zach=22 life Cailen =13 life
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why is cailen worried, well even if the Psychopath loses the con flip, Zach won't lose life due to spirit link. None of Cailens creatures can stand-up to it, how will he win? Is he overlooking something? Will he ever get some gum? Find out, in future chapters!
If you review, was this chapter too long? Should I have more cliffhangers? Please, suggestions!
