Chapter 33: Gate Guardian Returns, Part 4
______________________________
The score stood at Zhen: 2850, Allen: 500, and Daniel: 600. Zhen growled at them, knowing her Gate Guardian was defeated by one single magic card. She couldn't stand this.
"Now!" She screamed. "Gate Guardian attack and destroy Fiend Megacyber!"
"Activate trap card!" Daniel yelled. "Negate Attack! This will negate your attack and end your battle phase!"
"Errr.. End turn, now!" Zhen yelled.
Allen drew his next card. "Now! It's time to bring you down!" Allen sneered. "Now I activate Drifting Wind!"
"Yeah!" Daniel thought. Suddenly a light purple wind picked up, swirling around Fiend Megacyber.
"This will specially summon my ultimate monster! Grand Geralian!" Allen yelled as his whole hand turned into one single warrior monster. "Now! Grand Geralian! Fuse with Fiend Megacyber!"
Allen placed the warrior on top of The Fiend Megacyber. The Fiend Megacyber began to change and morph into a stronger warrior. It held a long spear, each end embedded with feathers and a glowing tip. It's gold and black armor shined in the sun and it's long black thick hair flew with the wind.
"Now! I create Mega Fiend! (2300/1200) This allows each player to put one of each card into their hand, trap, magic, and monster!" Allen yelled as three card slipped out of his deck holster. He looked at them. "Now! I activate Axe of Despair! Increasing Mega Fiend by 1000!"
"No!" Zhen said in shock.
"Now! Mega Fiend! Attack and destroy Gate Guardian!" Allen yelled.
"Activate trap card! Black Demon Land!" Zhen yelled as her trap card flipped up. "With this! Your monster is put out of play"
"No!" Allen yelled as his Mega Fiend began to turn to black stone. Zhen laughed. "There goes your way of winning!"
"I don't think so!" Daniel yelled.
"Oh?" Zhen laughed.
"Yeah! I end my turn!" Allen yelled.
"Now! I draw!" Daniel yelled, taking his next card. "Please let this work.... I need you...."
"What are you babbling about. Once you end your turn, your friend is doomed forever!" Zhen laughed, evilly.
Daniel looked at his new card, smiling triumphantly. "Now! It's time to bring you down!" Daniel yelled. "Now I activate Orichalcos Arrow!"
"What?!" Zhen screamed.
"Orichalcos Arrow... The only thing that can destroy the Orichalcos Seal, forever!" Daniel yelled as an angel appeared onto the field. It set up it's bow and arrow.
"No! I must have their souls!" Zhen thought. The arrow was unleashed at Zhen's Steel Plate, destroying the Orichalcos Seal sacred magic card.
"Now you won't be able to take our souls. I won't want to take you down either." Daniel warned. "But I still have my rights of dueling! Now I activate Descending Sword!"
Suddenly a white light formed in the sky. It began to lower from the ground. The sword then embedded into the ground. "What?! Another one?!" Zhen said in shock.
"Yes but this time! You won't be lasting!" Daniel said. "Descending Sword automatically summons Emoriel Breaker!"
Suddenly a warrior in dark purple armor stepped up to the sword and grabbed it, pulling it out from the ground. "Alright! Maybe this can win us!" Allen thought.
"How can this be?! I have one of the strongest monsters of all. How could such a care be created?!" Zhen screamed.
"I understand. Me or Allen don't know where they came from but they can win us this duel! Now! Emoriel Breaker! Fuse with Death Volstargaf!" Daniel yelled. Suddenly Emoriel Break jumped into the air. Fall leaves began to rain down and swirling around Emoriel Breaker. The warrior's dark purple armor turned solid grey iron. It's eyes turned bright yellow and it's sword formed into a long lance. It then jumped down onto Death Volstargaf's back. "Death Demon Slayer! (5700/1700) This monster allows me to attack directly! Now! Go!"
Death Volstargaf unleashed a metallic blue blast while the new improved Emoriel Breaker unleashed a white orb from it's lance.
"Activate face down card! Black Demon Land!" Zhen yelled.
"What?! But you never set a card down!" Daniel said in shock. Suddenly Death Volstargaf and Emoriel Breaker began to harden up into black stone, like Allen's Mega Fiend.
"Heh, it's all in the effect! When your little friend got trapped by my trap card, I was allowed to take another same trap card from my deck!" Zhen laughed.
"Don't think about it!" Allen smiled. "Now I activate my magic card! Mystical Space Typhoon!"
"What?!" Zhen screamed.
"That's right! When I fused Grand Geralian and Fiend Megacyber, it allowed us an effect, And for just such an occasion, I brought this along!" Allen smirked. "So say by to your Black Demon Lan!"
"No! When one is destroyed all of them are!" Zhen thought. Both trap cards were then destroyed by a small whirl wind.
"Now I'm free for attacking!" Daniel smiled. "Now! Death Demon Slayer! Charge up Mega Fiend and combine your attacks!" Daniel yelled.
"Now for the final attack!" Allen yelled.
"Attack!" They both yelled. Both warriors ran around Gate Guardian and jumped at Zhen. They both struck her with both their weapons. Zhen screamed, falling to the ground, her life points decreasing to 0.
Zhen groaned and sat up, looking at the ground. All holograms shut down and Daniel walked up to her. "You know... To you it may be a defeat but this was a great duel for me" Daniel said.
"So?! You won?!" Zhen snapped.
"You're the only person I know that actually has a Gate Guardian. I felt honored to duel you" He said crouching down. "Seriously"
"I shouldn't be here... Why am I still here?!" Zhen asked herself.
"No one deserves to be treated like this. But I'm sure you would not want to end up with your soul being taken away. You may like it but it's all about guilt for me and my friends. I hate to do it but it had to be done. It was fate that allowed me to use the Orichalcos Arrow" He said trying to cheer her up. "Here, I'd like you to have this"
Daniel took out the next card he would have drawn from his deck. He looked at the card and put it in Zhen's hand. Zhen looked at it in surprisement.
"I-I-I... How? Where?" She muttered.
"Don't worry, it's the least of my worries. I'm glad to have met someone like you" Daniel smiled. They both looked at the card, it was Raikejin of Fire, the final, and fourth Gate Guardian piece.
"I don't want to... but..." Zhen said
"Take it. A person like you should deserve this. Yes, you can be our friend, if you want" Daniel said. Allen came up from behind.
"We gotta go..." Allen muttered. Daniel looked up at him and nodded.
"Well, we better go." Daniel said standing up.
"Go on..." Zhen sighed. They both ran off. Zhen looked at the card again and placed it in her pocket. She stood up, her braided hair flowing in the wind. "I won't forget this... We'll meet again for a rematch...."
