Okay, so this was a strange chapter for me to write; I've never done anything like this before. So let's see how it all turns out! (Also, just sue me; I only know the dubbed names of the cards...)
Disclaimer note: I don't know how many times I have to say it! I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! (I don't own the characters or the cards...well, I own the cards, but...ah you know what I'm saying!) I only own the crazy teacher, Izumi, Riley, and Sophia's family.
All right, that's over. Let the frenzy begin!
Chapter 3: Duel!!: Sophia vs. Seto, pt.1
Sophia sat down and took her time shuffling her deck. Riley was standing by her chair biting his nails. 'She's never gonna beat him!' he thought.
'I just know for a fact that I'll beat him,' Sophia thought. 'Wait till I show everyone how good I really am...I think I'll play with him for a while!'
Seto noticed the smirk on Sophia's face. 'That no good brat...what is she up to...?' he thought.
Sophia slowly placed her deck on the desk. "I'm ready!"
"It's about time..." muttered Seto.
"Ladies first," said Riley, noting that Sophia should go first.
"Fine! Whatever," Seto replied. 'I'll beat her anyway...it won't matter who goes first!'
"All right! Then it's my turn!" she said, drawing her first card. She looked at her hand. She had mostly magic and trap cards and Penguin Soldier (Att/750; Def/500), and the card she just drew was Change of Heart. 'Hmm...not bad...' she thought.
"Are you gonna move or not!?" Seto said, impatiently.
"Fine then..." she said. "I'll place my Penguin Soldier on the field in defense mode. And also these two cards face down. Your turn."
"Took you long enough..." he muttered as he drew a card from his deck. Seto looked at his hand. He had Soul Exchange, Polymerization, Hitotsu-Me Giant (Att/1200; Def/1000), and 2 of his 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragons (Att/3000; Def/2500). The card he just drew was Flute of Summoning Dragon. An evil grin slowly crept onto his face.
Sophia noticed Seto was a little too confident. 'What is he laughing about?' she thought. "Hey, what's so funny?"
"Wouldn't YOU like to know!!" he replied as he made his move. "I'll place two cards face down, and my Hitotsu-Me Giant in attack mode!"
'Hah...what a fool...' thought Sophia. 'He's actually attacking me...!' "Big mistake, Seto!" she said.
He looked a little confused. "Hm? What the..."
She revealed her face down card Block Attack. "I do believe that cancels out your attack. Sorry! Just be grateful it wasn't something worse."
Seto became very annoyed with this. '...Okay!' he thought. 'So she's better than I expected. She's still going to lose!' "I'll end my turn." He said.
"Goodie!" she chirped. "My move!" She drew the monster card Flame Champion (Att/1900; Def/1300). [A/N: I really do own this card! It's one of my faves, and you're about to see why...]. 'Oh wow! That was perfect timing!' she thought as she looked at her hand. One of the magic cards she was holding was Salamandra. 'With this little baby, my Flame Champion will have 2600 attack points. That's enough and then some to clobber most of his monsters!' [A/N: Flame Champion's attribute is Fire; I rest my case...!]
Seto was growing impatient again. "Quit stalling and move!!!" he shouted.
"Stop shouting," she said calmly. "I'm sitting 3 feet away from you. I can hear you just fine! I'm sacrificing my Penguin Soldier to summon my Flame Champion [5 stars], in attack mode. But wait! There's more!"
'There better not be...' thought Seto, now getting a bit nervous.
"I will also play the magic card Salamandra, which raises his attack power all the way to 2600!" She giggled. "Now who has the last laugh?"
"It's not over yet!!" he argued.
"Well, it might as well be," she said, "cause I'm attacking your Giant, taking your life points down from 4000 to 2600!"
"Argh!" Seto looked at his hand. 'I've still got my Blue-Eyes...it's now or never!' "It's my move!"
"Yah, yah. Sure." She said. 'I've got him beat!' she thought.
Seto drew his card. He glanced at it, and then he started to snicker again.
'What's his problem this time?' Sophia thought. She got a bad feeling about this. "Uh...what's up?" she asked.
He looked at her with his evil smile. "What's up is that you're about to lose, Sophia!! I'm playing Lord of Dragons in attack mode, and activating my face down card Flute of Summoning Dragon!!"
'O-kay...' she thought. 'That won't really do any good, unless he's got some kick-butt dragons...you don't think...'
"And the two dragons I'll summon are..."
Sophia lost her confidence. 'It's over!' she thought. 'I'm going to lose!! If I lose, my plan fails!!!'
