Chapter 5 - The Duel Ends... and The Worst Day of the Meiji

"Ready to lose?" Seto yelled. A strong hint of anger was in his voice.

"I know you are, you don't need to tell me." Grey Wolf said back, the same hint of anger showing.

"I'll go first. You call rules."

"Fine, 4000 LP, all restrictions intact."

"Good. My move." Seto said as he drew his hand, then the next card on his deck. "What a fool..." Seto thought in his head. He looked at his hand, which contained Lord of D., Nightmare Wheel, Flute of Summoning Dragon, 2 Blue-Eyes White Dragons, and a Megamorph. He began to laugh. "Hahahahaha... You have no chance, Grey Wolf! You can't win! I've drawn an extremely powerful hand, and everyone knows the faster you play, the faster you win. What cards do you have? You're weaker than Wheeler!"

"Grr..." She grumbled as she looked down at her own hand, comprised of a Spear Dragon, a Koumori Dragon, Dragon's Rage, Chaos Soldier - Messenger of Creation, and Dark Master - Zorc. Without the ritual, Zorc was useless, she didn't have any Dark or Light monsters yet for Chaos Soldier, she didn't have any 5 star or otherwise powerful monsters at hand for Dragon's Rage, and relying on 2 monsters alone for now would lead her to a quick and merciless defeat. "Shit..." She muttered under her breath.

"I'll play Lord of D., in defense mode! Next, I'll use my Flute of Summoning Dragon to summon my 2 Blue-Eyes White Dragons in attack mode! Next, I'll lay one card face-down. Your move." Seto grinned as he saw the expression on her face.

"Damn! One turn and he's already 6000 attack points ahead! Shit... How the hell am I going to last this turn?!" She thought in her head. "Damnit... If there's a time for believing in the heart of the cards, now's it... Come on..." She drew the next card in her deck, and aloud, said, "Shit!" As it turned out to only be a Troop Dragon. "Damn..." She said, thinking again. "Oh well... this'll hold him off for one turn, but..." She laid down the Troop Dragon face-down. "Your move, Seto..."

"Gladly." He drew another Blue-Eyes White Dragon. "I'll attack your face-down monster!"

"It's a Troop Dragon! So I get another from my deck to the field, which I place in defense."

"Fine! I'll attack it with my other Blue-Eyes!"

"And once that one's destroyed, I'll get my other Troop Dragon."

"Alright then. Your move!"

"It won't be my last!"

"We'll see about that."

"Grr..." She drew her next card, which was a Swords of Revealing Light. "Yes! This'll help! I play Swords of Revealing Light!"

"What?! Damn. I was hoping to finish you next turn... Oh, well. If that's all, I'd like to activate my trap card... Nightmare Wheel! On your Troop Dragon! Now, you recieve 500 LP damage at the begining of your turn!"

"Great... Now, I'll play out Spear Dragon, in attack mode. It'll attack your Lord of D., and destroy it! Now, you lose 800 LP!" Grey Wolf yelled, Seto's LP now 3200. "Your move."

"Good. I'll draw..." He drew, getting a Koumori Dragon. "I'll play Koumori Dragon, in attack mode!"

"My move!" She drew, and got a Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and her LP went down to 3500. "Yes! Now, I'll tribute Troop Dragon and Spear Dragon for my Blue-Eyes White Dragon!"

"Damn!"

"Damn straight!" Grey Wolf yelled, her arrogance back in full stride. "Now... I'll play a face-down card. Your move." She said, laying down her Dragon's Rage.

"Great..." He drew a Polymerization, and somehow feeling that defense wasn't a good idea for his Koumori Dragon, played Megamorph on it.

"WHAT?! Oh my god... you've gone insane!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" However, Grey Wolf stopped laughing at the thought that he had three monsters with 3000 attack, while she had one. "Crap..." She thought.

"Your move."

"Yes, my move." She drew a Summoned Skull, and when an idea occured to her, she tributed her Blue-Eyes White Dragon for it. Then, she ended her turn.

"And you call me insane..." Seto said as he drew Blackland Fire Dragon. He played it in defense and ended his turn. "Now that my turn's over, your Swords of Revealing Light are gone!"

"I know..." She put the card in the graveyard and drew a Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress. "Yes... yes!" She played the dragon in defense. Then, it was Seto's move. He destroyed both the Summoned Skull and the Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress, and attacked her LP with 3000. That brought her down to 500 LP. However, she just smirked. She knew Seto's plans, just as well as she knew him. Just as she thought, he tributed the Fire Dragon and his Koumori Dragon for another Blue-Eyes, then Polymerized them. She smirked even wider.

"My move, then..." She said, seeing as he had no hand, and thus, nothing left to do. She drew, knowing that if the Heart of the Cards didn't work, she would lose. She slowly drew... and the Pot of Greed she needed was there. She needed that card to get two cards... and she drew, the most challenging draw she had ever done.

Change of Heart and Polymerization. It was there. The two cards. She didn't waste any time. "Now! I'll play Change of Heart! That Blue-Eyes Ultimate is mine! Now, I'll remove the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Summoned Skull in my graveyard to summon my Chaos Soldier! Now... I'll fuse them together to create the most powerful being you've ever seen!!!" She took the card from her fusion deck, and discarded the Chaos Soldier - Messenger of Creation to the grave, and placed the Blue-Eyes Ultimate in her brother's grave. Grey Wolf laid down that powerful but normally useless card, the Master of Dragon Knight.

"Hahahahaha!!! You're defeated, brother! 5000 attack points to an empty field!"

"No! That card was said not to exist! It's unbelievable!"

"Believe it! Now, Master of Dragon Knight, ATTACK HIS LIFE POINTS DIRECTLY!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!"

"NO!" Seto yelled as the monster advanced on him. It struck him, causing him to fly backwards into the wall. His duel disk went haywire, and shocked him. Seto fell unconscience.

"Serves him right..." Grey Wolf whispered, her mood suddenly changed, from the additude she took on when dueling. She walked over to Seto and took his Blue-Eyes White Dragon from his deck. Then, sat down while Yugi made sure Seto was ok. Suddenly, Vejiita ran in.

"Guys! Team Rocket has been released from jail!!!"

"What?!" Grey Wolf yelled.

"I swear it's true!" He turned on the big screen and turned it to CNN. Sure enough, Giovanni was on the screen, talking on 60 minutes about why he and his entire organization were put away, and how they got out(hey, let's just say the TV was invented really early in this reality ;;)

"Damn him! Oh, well... Team Rocket is weak. We'll take them out."

7 DAYS LATER

"CANCELLED?!" The crowd of duelists yelled after Seto came out personally.

"Most of you are poke'mon trainers, right?"

"Yeah..." The crowd mumbled, Grey Wolf, Yugi and Vejiita among them. Grey Wolf was ticked. This was on Halloween, this big tourney. And now, it was cancelled, not only ruining her favorite holiday, but also, her 13th birthday, since she had been born on Halloween.

"Go home and turn to CNN!" He yelled. The crowd dispersed.

"Seto, what the hell is going on?" Grey Wolf asked her brother.

"CNN, I don't really feel like talking... I have a really bad headache..." In agreement with her brother's wishes, she went home and started watching CNN.

TV reporter: "We are now here at the scene, where Kyoto is in a rampage. The Meiji government's forces are no more, and Team Rocket has taken over. We are getting information from the Johto and Hoenn regions, Johto has been taken over by Team Magma, and Hoenn has been taken by Team Aqua. Obviously, these teams have made some sort of agreement to share the world in a dictatorship. In Johto and Hoenn, trainers now, by law, must release all their poke'mon, and the only legal owners of poke'mon are members of Teams Aqua and Magma. Also, Team Rocket will most likely force the same here-" A bullet rang out, and the man fell over. Then, another, and the camera fell to the floor and the screen went fuzzy. The TV shut off.

"Damn Team Rocket! They can't do this!" Yugi cried out.

"Damn straight! I feel like following father's footsteps and rebelling! Telling Team Rocket to fuck off or die would feel damn good, right about now!"

"Hell yeah! Fucking bastards!" Vejiita yelled at Grey Wolf's words.

"Damnit! Stupid..."

"Grey Wolf, wait! I have some connections to Team Rocket! I could see what I could do..." Yugi whispered.

"Alright..." Yugi left at Grey Wolf's approval.

Vejiita spoke up. "Grey Wolf... what do you think he can do?" He said, with no hint of sarcasm at all. He was completely serious, as was she with her answer.

"I don't know, Vejiita. But whatever happens, it's going to be one hell of a ride... one that I'll die for, if necissary. There's no way I'll ever let Team Rocket get away with this. Not one will survive, after I'm through with them... not one."
