Chapter 110: Duel of Revenge, Part 1

________________________________

Daniel rounded the corner when he suddenly ran into someone. The two of them fell onto the ground and realized who they bumped into.

"Dan!" Jess cried out jumping up.

"Jess!" Daniel said quickly getting up. "Are you ok?!"

"I've been wandering around here looking for you! Have you seen the others?" Jess asked.

"Not anyone in a while, you're the first" Daniel said.

"Oh, so I'm betting you know what's going on around here huh?" Jess asked.

"Yeah, Doom is going to be back if we don't stop the person whose doing this." Daniel said holding his hand in a fist.

"This can't be happening.... I have a bad feeling for Allen and Mink..." Jess groaned.

"So am I... Allen was kidnapped..." Daniel said looking down.

"We've got to find them!" Jess said. As soon as she finished talking a large motor home stopped next to them.

Mink jumped out. "You guys are alright!" She said.

"Where've you been?!" Jess yelled as they both ran up to each other.

"We had a visitor..." Devon said. After a while all got in and saw Diego's body.

"So if Diego's back... Then Spinks is too. I bet you anything that the guy who took Allen was working for Spinks." Daniel growled. "Paul might be in trouble too. We'll have to find him. But first we need to find Allen."

"Don't bother..." Devon said, coming to a stop. "Look!"

They all jumped out and found Allen, shielding his eyes from the bright lights from the motor home. "Where've you guys been?!" Allen said.

"Looking for you, duh." Mink said with smiles.

"I had a run in with Spinks, but I showed him." Allen smiled, holding up his Duel Xero.

"What a coincidence we had a run in with Diego." Devon said.

"That leaves Vice. He's after Paul." Daniel said.

"Duh, he had a some grudge against him since the last tournament." Jess said.

"We'll have to go to his building then." Devon said.

"Wait... He also has a building here?! Jeez, how many places does he have to be for a dumb game...." Mink said.

They all got into the motor home and got off to Paul's building.

Paul entered the P.K Building, wanting some answers for the Orichalcos card used against him. He opened the door to his office but was greeted by someone sitting in his chair.

"Who are you..." He growled.

"You would know." Vice's voice said, turning the chair around.

"Heh why should I be surprised. All you ever wanted is to duel me." Paul smirked. "Why?"

"Because you don't have what it takes to be a champion of duel monsters! You give everything in your way a bad name!" Vice yelled.

"You sicken me. You're lucky enough Dan hasn't beaten you in a duel but I will be the first!" Paul yelled as his Duel Xero folded out.

"Heh, I'll show you I'm unstoppable! My Guardian Deck is impenetrable!" Vice yelled as his Duel Xero also folded out.

"Duel!" They both yelled as their life points increased to 4000.

Vice drew his first card and smiled. "Now! Activate magic card, Orichalcos Seal!" He yelled, pulling his 6th card from his deck without looking and slipping it into the field card zone. Paul stood there with his fists clenched as his Duel Xero began to glow and unleash the seal from the field card zone slot. The field was set and the dark power flowed within Vice's body. "Your soul will be mine! I'll set two cards face down and summon Back- Up Guardian! (0/2200 +500) In defense mode! My turn ends."

Paul drew his next card. "Now! I summon Sapphire Dragon! (1900/1100)" He announced as the blue dragon formed on the field. "I'll also add this magic card, Blast Dragon Effect! Increasing Sapphire Dragon's attack power by 1000 for this turn! (2900/1100)"

"Heh." Vice smiled.

"Now! Sapphire Dragon attack his Back-Up Guardian!" Paul yelled, commanding the dragon to attack. The dragon unleashed a firey blue blast which was aimed toward Vice's Back-Up Guardian.

"Now! Reverse trap card, Guardian Mirror!" Vice yelled as his trap card flipped up. "This negates your attack!"

"I knew something like this would happen." Paul growled with a clenched fist.

"It not only negates your attack, it destroys all monster cards in your hand!" Vice yelled.

Paul growled, taking three cards from his hand and discarding them to his graveyard holster. "I'll set a card face down and end my turn." Paul announced. As he ended his turn, Sapphire Dragon's attack points reduced to 1900.

Vice drew his next card and smiled. "Now! Reverse magic card, Dagger of Butterflies!" He announced as his face down magic card flipped up. "Yes, this is a guardian magic card, allowing me to summon this, Guardian Eruma! (1300/1200 +500)"

"No..." Paul growled as the woman materialized onto the field and grabbing the Dagger of Butterflies, increasing her life points more (2100/1200).

"I'll switch Back-Up Guardian into attack mode. Now! Guardian Eruma attack his Sapphire Dragon now!" Vice demanded. The woman sliced through the dragon with her Dagger, destroying it, and reducing Paul's life points to 3800. "Now! Back-Up Guardian, attack his life points directly! (500/2200)"

The demon dove at Paul, slashing him with it's claws. Paul growled, falling back a bit as his life points reduced to 3300. "God Damn..." Paul said.

"I'll set another card face down and end my turn." Vice announced.

Paul drew his next card. Paul smiled at the card he drew. "Now! Your over! I sacrifice Guardian Eruma and Back-Up Guardian to summon this, Lava Golem! (3000/2500 +500)" Paul announced as both of Vice's monsters disappeared and a giant lava giant emerged from the bottom of the ground. Vice smirked as a cage materialized around him.

"You actually risk giving me a stronger monster." Vice said.

"Everything counts now." Paul sneered. "You're going down!"

"We'll see. This duel is going my way and you'll finally bow down to me!" Vice yelled. "Once your through, your company, your games, your life will be mine!"

Notes: This monster is a special defense for Daniel's deck. It may also work good for an Occult Deck.
