Chapter 78: Battle of The Big 5, Part 1
________________________________
"Now! I take the first turn!" Devon announced, drawing his 6th card. "And I summon a monster in defense mode! I'll then set 2 cards, face down, and end my turn!"
Daniel drew his next card. "Now! I summon Ryu Warrior! (1600/1300) In defense mode!" He announced.
"Defense mode? I could have done better." Paul smirked.
"I'll then set a card face down and end my turn!" Daniel announced.
Paul drew his next card. "Now! I summon Glade Dragon! (1800/1600)" He announced. "I then sacrifice it to summon this, Blue Eyes White Dragon! (3000/2500)"
"Hmm..." Devon smiled.
"Now! Blue Eyes White Dragon attack!" Paul yelled.
"Paul wait!" Daniel called out.
"It's too late! He's attacked my Soul Bounder! (200/200)" Devon yelled.
"What?!" Paul said.
"You've activated my Soul Bounder, giving me control of your Blue Eyes White Dragon!" Devon yelled as the spirit invaded Blue Eyes White Dragon's body.
Paul growled. "My turn ends..." He growled.
Devon drew his next card and smiled. "Heh! This is too easy! Now I play Light Bringer, this will increase Blue Eyes White Dragon's attack by 1000! (4000/2500)" Devon yelled as Blue Eyes' body began to glow white. "Now! Blue Eyes White Dragon, attack his life points directly!"
"Ryu Warrior! Get in there and take the attack!" Daniel yelled. The dragon warrior stood up and jumped in the way of the white lightning blast. The warrior was simply destroyed.
Devon growled. "Do not interfere!" He yelled.
"Tag team rules! A player is allowed to sacrifice his own monster to take the attack of his partner." Daniel grinned.
"Th-thanks...." Paul mumbled. Paul learned a small lesson which kept him ready for anything instead of lashing out.
Devon growled, taking a card from his hand. "Now! I summon Hysteric Angel, in attack mode! (1800/500)" Devon announced. "My turn ends!"
Daniel drew his next card. "Now! I summon Orpheus, in defense mode! (100/2500)" He announced. "My turn ends!"
Paul drew his next card. "Now! I summon Spear Dragon! (1900/0)" He announced. "Now! Spear Dragon attack and destroy his Hysteric Angel!"
"Reveal trap card, Attack Nullification!" Devon announced.
Daniel and Paul growled. Knowing with that trap card, he was planning a sacrifice. "I end my turn!" Paul announced.
Devon drew his next card. "Now! I sacrifice Hysteric Angel to summon this, Magic Canceler! (1800/1600)" He announced as the mechanical worm materialized onto the field.
"You sacrifice a monster to summon a weaker monster, you're pathetic!" Paul yelled.
Daniel didn't have a good feeling at all. The Magic Canceler had a hidden ability. "Now, I will end my turn without attacking."
Devon saw Daniel's face down card, knowing something was up. Daniel drew his next card. "Now! I play Polymerization to fuse Baffomet and Gazelle from my hand!" He announced. Suddenly Magic Canceler began to glow and shot a beam at Daniel's Polymerization card, destroying it. "What?!"
"Magic Canceler keeps everyone from using magic cards!" Devon yelled.
Daniel growled. "I summon The King of Mythical Beasts, Gazelle in defense mode! (1500/1200)" He announced. "My turn ends!"
Devon drew his next card. "Now! I summon a monster in defense mode. Now! Blue Eyes White Dragon! Attack and destroy his Spear Dragon!" Devon announced, taking the chance.
"Activate trap card!" Daniel called out. "Hexagram Curse!"
Suddenly a hex ring appeared and wrapped around the Blue Eyes, stopping it from attacking. Devon growled. "My turn ends!"
Daniel drew his next card. "Now! I play this magic card, Intertwined Dimension which allows me to sacrifice all the magic cards in my hand to summon a monster from my hand!" Daniel announced. Daniel took his magic card, Inner Rage of The Beast and slid it in his graveyard holster. He then took another card from his hand. "Now I summon Death Volsgulf! (1200/2500)"
"Heh that monster isn't any stronger than my Magic Canceler. What kind of partner is this." Devon smirked, looking at Paul.
Devon was kind of right and Paul was starting to get annoyed but he kept his mouth shut. "Now! Death Volsgulf attack and destroy his defense monster!" Daniel announced.
Suddenly a strange red demon appeared. "No! A Feral Spirit!" Daniel said in shock.
"Nice going...." Paul said in his mind.
"Then you know what it does! By sacrificing two of your monsters on the field, I can summon one stronger monster from my hand!" Devon laughed as Paul's Spear Dragon and Daniel's Death Volsgulf vanished. "I summon Amphibian Beast! (2400/2000)"
Daniel growled. But then again, Amphibian Beast was no match for Daniel's defense monster, Orpheus. "My turn ends!" He announced.
Paul drew his next card and smiled. "Now! I summon Necros Dragon! (1900/200)" He announced. "Say bye to your Magic Canceler! Now Attack!" The dragon dove at the machine, tearing it to shreds. "When Necros Dragon inflicts battle damage an extra 600 will inflict damage!"
"I wouldn't worry about losing life points, now! I activate Tornado Wall!" Devon yelled.
"That card can't be used unless you have Sea!" Daniel yelled.
"On the contrary I activate this, Legendary Sea of Atlantis!" Devon announced. Suddenly water between them on the docks began to grow larger and giant ruins formed onto the surface. "This field magic card counts as Sea and downgrades all Water Type monsters in my hand by 1 level!"
Daniel and Paul growled. Devon's Amphibian Beast grew to 2600. "I'll set a card face down and end my turn!" Paul smiled.
Devon drew his next card. "Now meet your demise!" He laughed.
"Reverse trap card, Moon Face Judge!" Paul announced. "And I'm guessing you've drawn a monster card!"
Devon growled. "Your right..." He said showing him the card. It was the Legendary Fisherman.
"Now it's my turn!" Daniel yelled, drawing his next card. "Now! I sacrifice Orpheus and Gazelle to summon Buster Blader! (2600/2100) Now I'll play Foolish Burial to place my Gilder Kaizer Dragon into your graveyard, giving Buster Blader 500 attack points! (3100/2100) Now, Buster Blader attack and destroy his Amphibian Beast!"
The warrior slashed through the beast, destroying it. "Err... You'll pay for this!" Devon yelled.
"I end my turn!" Daniel announced.
Paul drew his next card. "Now! I activate this magic card, Phoenix Hellraiser!" He yelled. "By sacrificing my Necros Dragon, I can return all your monsters back to your hand and destroy all your magic and trap cards!"
"Alright that was a good move!" Kai said. "Blue Eyes was originally Paul's monster so it returns to his hand instead and it leaves The Big 5 with nothing"
Paul smiled, getting back his Blue Eyes and getting rid of Devon's magic and traps. Devon growled. "I will not lose to the likes of you! I have these docks wired so even if I lose, you're all going down!" He laughed, holding a small device with a button.
Suddenly everyone felt fear. They could lose or could win and no matter what they'd die.
