Chapter 13: Dawn of Darkness, Part 2

_________________________________

The score stuck at Whiley: 2450 and Allen: 375. The tides of this duel had changed when Whiley struck Allen with Helpoemer, Destroying all of Allen's monsters, Whiley ended his turn.

Allen drew his next card. He groaned, getting just a sort of defense monster he would sort of need. "Now! I summon Big Shield Guardna in defense mode! (100/2600) Then I set 1 card face down and end my turn!" He announced.

"I draw!" Whiley announced pulling out his next card. "Now I sacrifice Federal Knight to summon Streamer! (1200/1000 +500)"

"Darn it..." Allen thought, watching some kind of human materializing onto the battle ground. He wore a military pants and his head was covered in a helmet which had some kind of gas mask on it.

"Now it's time for you to lose! Streamer attack Big Shield Guardna!" Whiley announced, not caring that he'd be losing life points. The warrior unleashed toxic fumes at Big Shield Guardna. The warrior coughed but kept still. Whiley laughed as his life points reduced to 1550. But he knew that Big Shield Guardna had an effect. "And because Big Shield Guardna was attacked it is placed into attack mode!"

Allen felt himself lose balance as Big Shield Guardna stood up in attack position. He knew once Helpoemer destroyed his only defense, he'd lose the duel and his soul. "Heh...." He said.

"Now it's time for me to win! Helpoemer destroy Big Shield Guardna and win me this duel!" Whiley yelled.

"Not so fast!" Allen yelled.

"Errr... no not a trap card..." Whiley growled as Allen's trap card began to flip up.

"I activate Mirror Force!" Allen yelled. Suddenly a barrier protected Big Shield Guardna, reflecting the attack right back at Helpoemer and Streamer, destroying them both. "Yeah!" Allen yelled triumphantly.

Suddenly Whiley laughed. "You fool, you may have destroyed Helpoemer but you were stupid enough to not think of the consequences!" He yelled.

"What?!" Allen said.

"When Helpoemer is sent to the graveyard, it'll randomly destroy one card in your hand on every turn. There's no way to stop it because it can't be summoned from the graves!" While explained. Whiley then held up a thumbs down, ending his turn.

Allen drew his next card, feeling a bit down. Suddenly a ghastly hand crept through Allen's graveyard, taking his Fiend Megacyber and slipping it into the graveyard. Allen could had made good use with that monster and won this duel but now it's in the graveyard.

He looked at his hand, two cards, he could only make use of the cards he had now. "Now! I summon Battle Warrior Omega in attack mode! (300/1200)" He announced. "Now! Big Shield Guardna and Battle Warrior Omega! Attack his life points directly!"

The two monsters charged at Whiley. Big Shield Guardna charged into Whiley with it's shield and Battle Warrior Omega punched him in the chest. Whiley smirked, only minor attacks which left him with 1150 life points.

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

Whiley drew his next card and growled. "Not the right card... I'll have to draw another one" He said in his mind. "Now! I play Pitiful Draw which will allow me to draw 2 cards" Whiley sighed. "Earning you 1000 life points"

Allen kind of sighed, his life points increasing to 1375. Whiley then quickly snatched up two cards and smiled. "Now! I play Monster Reborn to bring back Streamer! (1200/1000 +500) I'll then set a card face down and end my turn!"

"What?! Why is he ending his turn... Ah ha! He must figure out something in my face down card" Allen thought with a straight face. "Or maybe he's planning on something"

Suddenly Whiley laughed. "Looks like you're in a big jam" He laughed.

"What do you mean?!" Allen yelled. As he drew his next card. As he drew he felt a sudden chill. With Helpoemer in Whiley's graveyard and with only one card each draw, he won't be able to play anything else. Slowly Whiley will destroy each of Allen's monsters and get to his life points.

"Face it, in a couple turns you'll be done for and I'll gain your soul!" Whiley laughed.

"I'm starting to wonder... How come your only after me and not my friends... Daniel is the main man so why aren't you after him?" Allen asked.

"That's none of your business!" Whiley snapped. "This is between me and you and you won't be able to break my deck! Your in a full trap and you won't stand these few turns!"

"Want a bet!" Allen said, happily.

"What?!" Whiley said in shock as he took a step back.

"Now! Reveal face down card! Hand of Truth!" Allen yelled as his magic card stood up.

"No!" Whiley thought, he could have destroyed him a turn earlier if he was sure about his face down card.

"By sacrificing 1000 life points (A: 375) I can draw a brand new hand!" Allen yelled as he grabbed a bundle of cards from his deck all at once. He looked at his brand new hand and smiled. "Now! I summon Rocket Warrior! (1500/1300) In defense mode and a card face down!".

Allen then ended his turn. Whiley smirked as he drew his next card. "You won't be able to pass through me because your demise has just started! Now! I activate Polymerization!" Whiley yelled as his face down card flipped up. "Now I fuse Streamer and Gas-X from my hand to fuse them both!"

"What?!" Allen said in shock as a monster appeared onto the field. Streamer and Gas-X started to get sucked into the Polymerization card. The hologram card then formed into a tall warrior. He had tubes wrapped around his body, strange liquid moving up into it's gas helmet. It's goggles stared deep into Allen and it's black armor on his lower body and combat boots.

"Now! I form Gas-X Streamer! (2500/1700 +500)" Whiley announced as the strange warrior held up it's fists, ready to fight.

"What.. what kind of warrior is that?!" Allen said in shock.

"Warrior? You mean Dark Warrior. Unlike your light warriors mine are filled with dark monsters you won't be able to handle! As an example... This monster shall bury you alive!" Whiley threatened. "But for now, I place a card face down and end my turn"

Allen drew his next card. Suddenly the ghastly hand appeared, taking his Retrained Elven Swordsman and dragging it into the graveyard. "Darn it..." Allen thought but he smiled at the card he drew. "Now I'll destroy warrior, dark warrior, whatever it is! Now I sacrifice Big Shield Guardna, Battle Warrior Omega, and Rocket Warrior!"

"For what?!" Whiley yelled.

"For Guilford The Lightning! (2800/1400)" Allen yelled. Suddenly lightning struck the ground, forming Guilford The Lightning. "Now! I activate Guilford The Lightning's effect! Destroy his monster!"

Suddenly lightning struck Gas-X Streamer. The warrior growled but nothing happened. "Ha!" Whiley yelled.

"What?!" Allen said in shock.

"Gas-X Streamer is totally unaffected by monster effects!" Whiley laughed. Allen growled. Gas-X Streamer was powerful than Guilford so Allen ended his turn.

Whiley drew his next card. He snarled at the useless cards he had but now it was his time to shine. "Now! This duel is mine! Gas-X Streamer attack and win me this duel!" Whiley yelled as the dark warrior opened it's hand, releasing acid like matter at Guilford The Lightning. "With every battle damage comes 300 more damage! You can't withstand this!"

Allen had no other move. He was going down for sure. Only his face down card would save him. "Now! Reverse face down card!" Allen yelled as he grabbed the card and immediately flipped it over.
