Chapter 49: New Guardians, New Terror, Part 1
______________________________
"We will now start the third duel!" The judge announced, starting the bingo machine.
Daniel looked at the people, still standing and waiting to duel. There was Vice, Bakura, Kai, and himself. "Come on! Give me Vice..." Daniel thought, looking serious at the Bingo Machine.
As the marbles flew, the slot opened and one flew in. "And the first duelist of the third round is number is duelist number 3, Vice!" The judge announced.
"Good... Now I need my number. We have a score to settle, Vice, and I'm going to make sure we settle it" Daniel said, glancing at the back of Vice's head.
Suddenly another marble came up. Kai, Bakura, and Daniel both jumped, knowing it could be anyone of them. The judge took and looked at it. "And our duelist fighting against Vice is duelist number 2, Bakura!" The judge announced.
"Excellent, we have a score to settle, Vice" Bakura said walking by Vice. "And this time I won't lose"
"We'll see about that..." Vice said as he walked behind him.
"Darn it..." Daniel thought.
"Well this sucks...." Kai said.
"Yeah... after this, you guys are to duel" Mink said. Daniel nodded.
"But remember what I said, don't give in no matter what, we'll fight hard" Daniel said.
Kai nodded. "Right" He said. "But in the meantime, I want to see what we'll be up against if I were to get into the finals" Kai said following along with the two duelist. Daniel, Mink, Jess, and Devon followed along too.
Daniel knew that Vice got a new Duel Monsters company job. His deck would have improved a lot.
The two duelist stood at each corner. "Now! Start!" The judge announced.
"Alright!"Bakura announced. "You've had your fun but the Orichalcos Seal is nothing. I can survive through it either way"
"What?! How?" Daniel said in shock.
"I don't know... He could only survive with the Millennium Ring but even with that, no one would beat the power of the Orichalcos Seal..." Jess said. "He must have something more powerful than the Millennium Items..."
"I guess so..." Mink said.
"Like I care, you were only a test subject, your were a successful one, but a stubborn one too" Vice smirked. "But it's time to duel!"
"Very well, now! Chose my deck master!" Bakura yelled as his Duel Xero's wings folded out and his deck holster slid out a monster card. Bakura smiled at his deck master. "And now my Deck Master is Headless Knight! (1450/1700)"
Vice's Duel Xero also folded out. "Now! Chose my deck master!" Vice announced. His deck holster also slid out a card from is deck. "And my deck master is Pedestal of Nurian!"
"Now I'll start this turn!" Bakura yelled, drawing his first hand. "And I summon Jurugen Re-Dead onto the field, defense mode! (1400/1200) I'll then set a card face down and end my turn!"
Vice drew his next card. "Now! I summon Petrified Guardian! (0/2700) in defense mode!" He announced as a stone warrior appeared onto the field. "I'll then set a card face down and end my turn..."
Bakura drew his next card. "Now! I summon Goblin Zombie! (1100/1050)" Bakura announced. "Now! Reverse trap card! Transparent Attack! This card allows me to attack your life points directly with a monster with the attack points of 1500 or less"
"Heh, I sacrifice a card from my hand to keep Petrified Guardian in defense mode" Vice smirked.
"Now! Goblin Zombie! Direct attack!" Bakura yelled. The zombie warrior ran right through Petrified Guardian and right infront of Vice.
"Reverse trap card! Black Sash!" Vice yelled. Suddenly a black ribbon shot out from the trap card, wrapping around Goblin Zombie, stopping it in it's tracks. "This stops your monster from attacking and keeps it from attacking. But that's not all what Black Sash does, you won't be able to normal summon anymore monsters as long as my trap card is up"
"I can still play defense" Bakura smirked, ending his turn.
"Now! I summon Gerajuku in defense mode! (1200/2100)" Vice yelled.
"Heh, you think I'll make a foolish attempt to attack your little back-up guardian, your wrong. I've seen that monster already!" Bakura laughed.
"You won't have to" Vice smiled. Vice already had his special guardian monster in his hand.
Bakura frowned in anger. "Whatever, go on with your turn!" He hissed.
"Now! I add this equip magic card, Rod of Silence which will increase Gerajuku's defense by 500! (1200/2600)" Vice yelled as a block of ice appeared. Gerajuku reach through the ice, grabbing the rod then pointed it up into the air, summoning something. "And it automatically allows me to summon this, Guardian Ketsu! (1000/1800)"
"The first real Guardian of this duel...." Daniel said looking as the mermaid like woman materialized onto the field.
"Guardians" Kai said. "I've heard of them, they're really strong"
"Tell me about it..." Daniel said.
"Now I end my turn..." Vice announced. It was a boring duel, Vice was only playing defense and Bakura was tied up at the moment.
Bakura drew his next card. "Now! I sacrifice a card from my hand to keep Petrified Guardian in defense mode!" Vice announced.
"Heh... Now I sacrifice Goblin Zombie to summon Dark God Hades! (2450/1600)" Bakura yelled. "Now! Attack and destroy Guardian Ketsu!"
"Not in your life time" Vice smirked. As Hades unleashed two yellow beams from it's eyes, Guardian Ketsu smiled evilly. Suddenly a large water dove covered her, blocking off the attack.
"What?!" Bakura said in shock as his attack was blocked.
"Guardian Ketsu blocks off any attacks targeted to it. It's only because I have Rod of Silence on the field. So forget about attacking my Guardian." Vice smirked.
Bakura growled. "I set a card face down and end my turn" He announced.
Vice drew his next card. "Now! I sacrifice Gerajuku to summon my Gelbeck! (2600/1350)" He announced.
"Gelbeck?!" Daniel said in shock as the giant creature lifted from the ground.
"Then I add this card, Magic Revival which allows me to discard a magic card from my hand to return a magic card into my hand from the graveyard"
"No...." Bakura growled.
"Now! I play Rod of Silence on Guardian Ketsu! (1000/2200)" Vice yelled. "But now... Gelbeck! Attack and destroy his Dark God Hades!"
The creature tossed it's one giant axe at the demon, destroying it, and reducing Bakura's life points to 3850.
Bakura smirked. "Fool... Your guardians are helpless. Every monster has a flaw and I'll soon find out what you stupid little Guardians are... You're done for!" Bakura yelled.
