Chapter 115: Destined Duel: Battle Between Champions, Part 2
__________________________________
"Blue Eyes White Dragon (4000/2500) direct attack!!!" Paul yelled with all his might, pointing at Daniel.
"Not so fast!" Daniel yelled. "Activate trap, Magic Mirror! This allows me to take a magic card from your graveyard and use it as my own!"
"What?!" Paul said in shock, looking down at his graveyard holster.
"Shrink activate!" Daniel yelled. Suddenly his Magic Mirror trap card transformed into the magic card, Shrink. The attack of Blue Eyes rose down to 2000. The lightning blast struck Daniel just a bit weaker. He let out a yelp as his life points lowered to 2000.
Paul growled. He was so close to winning but set back by another of his trap cards. He ended his turn angrily.
Daniel drew his next card. "Now! Activate magic card, Pot of Greed!" He yelled. His Duel Xero instructed him to draw two cards which he did. "Now! Activate magic card, Magical Academy!"
"No..." Paul growled angrily.
"This magic card allows me to special summon 1 monster from my hand by the cost of two cards from my hand." Daniel announced, taking two cards from his hand and discarding them to the graveyard. "And now! I summon this monster, Buster Blader! (2600/2300 +1500)"
"No!" Paul yelled as the warrior appeared on the field. "He'll destroy my Blue Eyes..."
"Plus, my special summoned monster earns an extra 500 attack points!" Daniel yelled. Buster Blader's attack had risen to 4100 because of Paul's Emerald Dragon (in the graveyard) and Blue Eyes White Dragon, plus the additional 500 from Magical Academy.
Paul growled knowing soon his Blue Eyes would be destroyed. "I'll set a card face down and end my turn." He announced.
Daniel drew his next card. "Now! Buster Blader attack and destroy his Blue Eyes White Dragon! (4000/2500)" He yelled.
The warrior dove at the dragon, slashing it in half and destroying it. "No... My Blue Eyes..." Paul growled. Paul's life points reduced to 3900.
"Now! I'll set a card face down and end my turn!" Daniel announced.
Paul drew his next card and smiled. "I'll set one cards face down and activate this, Raise Dead! Bringing back my Blue Eyes White Dragon! (3000/2500)" Paul announced.
"No... He plans to use his Deck Master, Blue Eyes White Dragon's, special effect..." Daniel thought.
"Now! I activate my deck master's special effect! By sacrificing 2000 of it's attack points, my own Blue Eyes White Dragon on the field will gain the exact same attack points I sacrificed!" Paul yelled as his deck master's attack power decreased to 1000 and the Blue Eyes he had on the monster field grew to 5000. "Now! Blue Eyes White Dragon attack and destroy his Buster Blader!"
The dragon blasted a lightning blast at. The warrior was instantly destroyed and Daniel's Life Points lowered to 1000.
"Now! Activate trap card, Return Chain!" Paul yelled.
"What?!" Daniel said, shocked as the trap card flipped up. Suddenly a spiked chain emerged from the trap card and flew into Daniel's graveyard. It stopped there for a second and began pulling back. Daniel saw the chain was hooked to his Buster Blader.
The Buster Blader was summoned into attack mode on the field. "This trap card brings back your Buster Blader and without it's effect. Plus it loses 800 attack points (1800/2300) and you cannot place it into defense mode." Paul smiled evilly. "I will win this duel!"
Daniel growled. The only way to get rid of it was to negate it's attack or sacrifice it for a different monster. Paul's turn ended quickly and Daniel drew his next card.
"Now I'll stop you from winning!" Daniel yelled holding up a magic card. "Magic card activate! Sacrifice Revive!"
"No!" Paul yelled.
"I can sacrifice Buster Blader to return a monster onto the field, from my graveyard!" Daniel yelled. "And I bring back XZ Caterpillar Cannon! (2400/2100)"
"I don't have any face down cards but that's not what I'm worrying about...." Paul growled, watching as the warrior dissolved and the machine reappeared.
"Now! I activate De-Fusion, brining back X Head Cannon (1800/1500) and Z Metal Caterpillar! (1500/1600) I then summon Y Dragon Head! (1500/1600)" Daniel yelled.
"No, XYZ Dragon Cannon will put me at a set back... I'll have to destroy it..." Paul thought giving Daniel a mean look.
"Now! I sacrifice X Head Cannon, Y Dragon Head, and Z Metal Caterpillar to summon this, XYZ Dragon Cannon! (2800/2600)" Daniel yelled as he called their names out, they combined into one giant machine monster. "Now! I discard the second to last remaining card from my hand to destroy your Blue Eyes White Dragon!"
A missile was launched from the machine and directly at Blue Eyes. The dragon let out a roar as it was quickly destroyed.
"No, my life points are free for attacking..." Paul growled.
"Now! XYZ Dragon Cannon attack his life points directly!" Daniel yelled.
Paul jerked his head back and took a step back as the machine launched a round of missiles at him. Paul let out a wail as they exploded around him, reducing his life points to 1100.
Paul fell on one knee, clutching his side. "You...." He growled.
"This is a duel of fate! I will do as much as I can to win!" Daniel yelled.
"And I will do anything to defeat my opponents!" Paul roared, standing straight up. "Draw!"
Paul quickly pulled his card and looked at it. "Let's see what he got..." Daniel thought patiently.
Paul smiled as he held up a magic card. "Not the card I need but this can help." Paul thought, looking at the 3rd card in his hand. "Now! I activate Pot of Greed!"
Paul drew his two cards and smiled. "No... He has something...." Daniel said to himself.
"Now! I activate this magic card, White Dragon Descent!" Paul yelled, placing the ritual magic card onto his magic/trap card field.
"No, a ritual..." Daniel said, shocked.
"And I sacrifice Blade Knight from my hand to summon the great Knight of White Dragon! (1900/1200)" Paul yelled as the knight riding the white dragon flew down from the sky to the roof. "And now I'll sacrifice it to summon my last Blue Eyes White Dragon! (3000/2500)"
The Knight of White Dragon burst into light and the Blue Eyes White Dragon emerged from the core of the light and landed on the roof, roaring with fury.
"No...." Daniel said in shock.
"I could destroy your XYZ Dragon Cannon... But it wouldn't be enough to fill in my anger from which you've given me!" Paul yelled. "So instead, I'll activate this, Burst Stream of Destruction!" Paul yelled, placing the magic card ontop of his Blue Eyes White Dragon card.
"What is that?!" Daniel said in shock.
"Just watch!" Paul smiled with vengeance.
Suddenly red lightning started forming in Blue Eyes White Dragon's mouth. It then blasted a wave. Daniel shielded himself from the red lightning wave. He saw that his XYZ Dragon Cannon was easily destroyed.
The red light vanished and Daniel's field was cleared. "What happened?!" He said in confusion.
"Burst Stream of Destruction can only be activated when I have my Blue Eyes on the field. It destroys every other monster on the field but my Blue Eyes so in my next turn, you will lose this duel and I will be powerful than any other duelist in the world!" Paul yelled with satisfaction.
Daniel growled, keeping his stance. "I won't let you defeat me. You may have defeated my greatest opponent but I assure you that you won't be defeating me! I never back down in a duel!" Daniel yelled.
"Heh, poor little Dan. You just don't get it. It's power that beats all, not confidence. Your deck is weak while mine possesses stronger power than you'll ever imagine!" Paul yelled.
"You forget one thing." Daniel yelled. "You, I, and even Allen are evenly matched with us. We have the Legendary Warriors!"
"Heh, Allen? He's not even worthy to be called a duelist. He's just a wannbe." Paul smirked.
Daniel grew angry. "How dare you insult my friend.... I question your life continuing without friends."
"I don't need friends to help me with duels." Paul smiled.
"Then you shouldn't even be allowed to be called a duelist." Daniel growled.
"If that is what you think then take your move! We will see who is the greatest!" Paul yelled with anger. Both stared each other down and Daniel finally drew his card.
"Your time has ran out Paul! I've defeated you once and I can do it again!" Daniel yelled, looking at his drawn card.
"Bring it, Danny-Boy!" Paul teased.
