Summary: The duel between Yami and Noctu concludes!
CHAPTER 6, Duel Against the Dead, Part 2
I now play Wobki the Healer! This magic card raises my life points by 1000!"
Yami 200
Noctu 1200
"And lastly but not lest, I play the magic card Dark Fusion! This summons the Monster Dark Mist! It is created by sacrificing all monsters with zombie, fiend, or dark subtypes. Which would incorporate all my monsters.! Dark Mist(3500/2450), come forth!" A black mist appeared and gobbled up all five of Noctu's monsters. "Unfortunately I can't waste you this turn. Take your last pathetic move!"
Yami called forth Yugi, and the two combined their minds and souls, laid their hand on their deck, then reached down deep into their gut and pull forth all their power and placed it fully into their faith in the heart of the cards, and drew. What Yami saw when he opened his eyes shocked him.
Yami smirked at the card he had drawn, and the eye began to glow on his forehead.
"Nameless Pharaoh, what have you drawn?"
"You shall see what I have drawn in just a little while scum, but all good things come in time. So now I'll start this combo off! I play Queens Knight and Kings Knight!" A women and a man in armor with shields and swords appeared on the field. "Now thanks to their special ability when both Queens Knight and Kings Knight are on the field I can special summon Jacks Knight as well!" A taller knight in green armor with sword in hand appeared.
"I'm not impressed, none of your monsters can destroy my Dark Mist!(3500/2450) It gains the attack and defense points of all monsters that were used to summon it! HAHAHA!"
"Well then it's time to meet the card I drew at the beginning of my turn! I sacrifice Queens Knight, Kings Knight, and Jacks Knight in order to summon this!" Yami's hand flashed across the top of his disk, snatching up his three cards and placing them in the graveyard. 'Thank you for your sacrifice, dear friends.' Then he picked one card from his increasingly small hand and raised it in the air.
"I now summon THE SKY DRAGON OSIRIS(1000/1000)!" And he slapped the card down on his disk, causing red lighting to shoot out of the card. The building began to darken and shudder. Soon the ceiling and walls cracked and the red and black serpent that was Osiris mad it's entrance. "Look upon my Egyptian God Card and despair! For he will be your demise!"
Noctu began to laugh manically, "Your beast is worthless compared to mine, perhaps you'd like to end this silliness and give me your pieces now!"
"Not likely, after I defeat you we should have enough to get out of here. And find the mastermind behind this plot."
Noctu went unusually silent.
"What?" The Pharaoh inquired.
"I only have one of each piece."
The five youths blanched, "Ya mean ya lost ta dat wannabe?" Joey queried confusedly.
"No, that was merely and illusion I created, I had almost all the things needed to escape this mansion, when I came upon Seto Kaiba."
"Let's get this duel on freak boy."
"You've got it, but I warn you, you will fall before my might!"
"I was doing well for a time, but then something happened I did not for see."
"Now I play White Dragon Paladin and sacrifice him to call forth my Blue Eyes White Dragon!"
"No, this cannot be!"
"Blue Eyes, destroy his pathetic Demonic Mirror as well as the last of his life points!"
The black aura wreathed around Noctu once more. It engulfed him entirely.
"Now Pharaoh, I will beat you, and face Kaiba in the finals!"
"You mean your not a hired duelist?"
"No, I bet that leads you to question how I know about you? Incase you have overlooked, I am a sorcerer, tales of your power are well known to my kind. Now get your turn over with so I may eliminate you from this tournament!"
"Very well, I now play the last card in my hand, Card of Sanctity! This forces both of us to discard our hands and draw until we are holding six cards! And since I have to cards in my hand, all I can do is draw!"
Noctu paled just a little bit more, if that was possible, and discarded his entire and then proceeded to draw six more, he frowned at his cards.
"Draw didn't turn out so good Noctu? Well mine did now Osiris destroy his Dark Mist!"
The sorcerer watched on as the giant dragon formed energy in it's larger mouth, "Bah, you've lost it Pharaoh, my Monster is far stronger than yours!"
"Are you so sure? Take a look at their strengths!"
Sky Dragon Osiris: 6000/6000
Dark Mist (3500/2450)
Noctu's eyes began to flash brilliantly, "WHAT IS THIS? YOU'VE PLAYED NO MAGIC CARD TO INCREASE HIS STRENGTH!"
"My God Card holds many surprises for you Dark One, Now Osiris attack with Thunder Force!"
The Divine Beast let loose then bright energy in it's larger mouth and it exploded on Noctu's side of the field.
Yami looked on with calm, "It's over."
"Not quite!"
Yami 200
Noctu 1200
"But how?!?"
"Fool, my Dark Mist is more ancient than even your dragon! It's first special ability protects my life points whenever it is destroyed. The second states that when sent to the graveyard it is instantly brought back to the field, and then it gains 500 more attack points! Dark Mist, revive yourself now!" A dark fog appeared around Noctu, then it all conglomerated into one large mist. "Dark Mist(4000/2450)has returned!"
"Not so fast with your celebration Noctu. You've activated my God Card's special ability! His second mouth! Whenever a monster is summoned to the field Osiris deals it 2000 points in damage! And revival counts as summoning! Now ATTACK MY DIVINE BEAST!"
Dark Mist 2000/2450
"I end my turn."
Noctu drew and began to howl with laughter. "Fool, your end is nigh! I sacrifice my Dark Mist to bring forth Skull Merchant(2150/1400) in defense mode, but my Dark Mist(2500/2450) revives itself with 500 more attack points!" A skeleton carrying all kinds of goods, fabrics, and weapons on it's back materialized as the Dark Mist vaporized, only to return again.
"You aren't going to be so cocky once you've learned to respect the power of Osiris, ATTACK WITH SECOND MOUTH!" The beast opened it's second mouth and two streams of purple energy collided with Noctu's vile soldiers.
Skull Merchant 150/1400
Dark Mist 500/2450
"That affects nothing in the long run Pharaoh, I lay one card face down and end my turn!"
Yami drew and then was about to attack when got a friendly monition.
'Yami, look at the card you just drew!' Yugi suggested through their mind link.
Yami glanced at the card, 'Yes Yugi, what of it?'
'Well, it could prove useful!'
'Yugi, we're about as likely to need this card than Tristan is to have Chris Rock fall out of his ass. But, as they say, better safe than sorry.' And taking his hikari's advice Yami placed the card in his duel disk. "I lay one card face down, and attack your Skull Merchant with Thunder Force!"
Osiris charged up his attack and fired, destroying the much smaller monster.
"You've activated my trap card Pharaoh!"
"Too bad traps don't affect Egyptian God Monsters."
"Who said the trap affected you! I activate Apparition Recreation! This brings back my Skull Merchant as a Ghost Token!" A Ghost Token Skull Merchant(2150/1400) appeared on the field. "And since he was in defense mode, my life points are safe."
"For now, anyway. I end my turn."
Noctu drew, "Now behold your end Pharaoh, I sacrifice my Dark Mist to summon Nectroll(2300/2000)!" A scrawny humanoid with stretched out skin, long white hair, and fingernails like claws materialized on the field as Dark Mist evaporated, then condensed back onto the field.
"Now I attack with Osiris' second mouth!"
"Not so fast Pharaoh, Nectroll's special ability now kicks in, one the turn he is summoned all special effects are useless, and afterward he is immune to all special effects, so my Nectroll and Dark Mist(1000/2450) won't lose points this turn! Now I am going to activate my Skull Merchant's special ability! Whenever a monster is transformed into a Ghost Token it may fuse with any monster the original monster could for free! Now fuse together my creatures of death! Possession Fusion!" The Skull Merchant Ghost Token went ethereal and leapt into the Nectroll, a dark light emitted from the fusion and a tall old man in dark robes and a long beard wielding a gnarled staff appeared. "Behold the Necromancer(2800/2300)!"
"Fusion also counts as a summoning you fool, now attack with second mouth!"
Necromancer 1800/2300
"HahahahahahaHAHAHAHAHA! Fool, it doesn't matter what you do! For my Necromancer will bring down your silly God Beast. His special ability gives him 300 attack points whenever a monster is sent to the graveyard! So I sacrifice my own Dark Mist! Giving a power boost to my Necromancer(2100/2300)! Now Dark Mist(1000/2450) revives itself, only to be destroyed by your dragons special ability, sending it to the graveyard, which boost my Necromancer (2400/2300)! But then Dark Mist revives again, and the cycle continues! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Yami was awestruck, his Necromancer had an infinite attack point combo! Too strong for his Sky Dragon, how could he let this happen, how could he be defeated, how could he-
'YAMI!'
The Pharaoh snapped back to attention. "I CALL OFF MY DRAGONS SPECIAL ABILITY!" And just as the command was given, the beast stopped attacking.
"TOO LATE PHAROAH! MY MONSTER IS TOO POWERFUL FOR YOU TO DEFEAT!"
Necromancer 16200/2450
"HAHAHAHAHAHA! Now I think I'll finish you off with my Darkner Card! After all, it's still in play!" The dark aura that had been surrounding Noctu now grew, and then the Darkner Card itself erupted in dark flame.
Yami 200
Necto 700
A tiny bit of light came out of the Dark Mist, on the other hand, the Necromancer raised his hand and a flood of light escaped and devoured the little light of the Dark Mist.
"Now, the total attack power of 17200 destroy his God Card, NOW!"
"NO! IF THAT DESTROYS OSIRIS YUGI IS DONE FOR!" Tea screamed.
The light launched itself at the Divine Beast, only to glance off harmlessly.
Noctu's eyes went wide with alarm, "WHAT IS GOING ON?!?"
Yami could only chuckle slightly, "Fool, it doesn't matter if it is a Darkner Card, only a few magic cards can effect an Egyptian God Card, and Focus Power isn't one of them."
Noctu's aura became flame-like with rage, "YOU DARE LAUGH AT THE MIGHT OF MY DECK! MY NECROMANCER HAS THE POWER TO DESTROY YOU OF IT'S OWN ACCORD! Now my Necromancer destroy his Beast and the rest of his life points!"
The Necromancer charged up his staff and hurled the unholy energy at Yami's Monster.
"Not so fast Noctu, you have yet to account for my last face down card!" Yami said pointing to the face down card that Yugi had advised him to play, "And now I reveal it! MIRROR FORCE!"
Just inches away from striking Osiris the attack hit an invisible barrier and was absorbed by it, then light shot out in all directions from the barrier and destroyed Noctu's two monsters.
"Way ta go Yug!"
"Good job Pharaoh, good Yugi!"
"Way to sock it too em man!"
Rex, unused to this kind of situation, did what he always did when he didn't know what was going on, he improvised, "Ummm, yay team."
"NOOOO! THIS CANNOT BE! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY MONSTERS!"
"Mirror Force deflects your attack right back at you, destroying all your monsters."
Noctu frowned, "Oh well, my Dark Mist(1500/2450) now returns to me!"
Yami quickly reacted, "Hold your fire Osiris." His beast shut his second mouth just as he had began to open it.
"I end my turn Pharaoh."
Yami placed his hand on his deck and drew, after glancing a his new card Yami was all smiles. "I now play the magic card Brain Control!" A giant brain appeared and with phantom hands reached out to Dark Mist and dragged it over to Yami's side of the field.
"I now use it to take control of your Dark Mist, leaving you wide open for an attack! Now, SKY DRAGON OSIRIS, LIBERATE HIM OF HIS LIFE POINTS!"
Osiris charged up and fired.
"NO, I WILL NOT LOSE!" Noctu declared as he sent his dark aura to destroy the attack, only to have his survival attempt brushed aside by the attack. "WHAT? I DON'T UNDERSTAND! HOW CAN MY MAGIC BE DEFEATED BY A HOLOGRAM?!?"
Yami felt gracious enough to provide the answer, "You're a sorcerer, take a close look at the cards sometime and you'll see, that the monsters are real!"
The energy of the Thunder Force attack engulfed Noctu, and as the holograms cleared, he was found laying unconscious, on the ground.

"Yay Yugi!"
"Way to be, Yu-GI!"
"I gotta admit Moto, you did good."
"Ya! Dats our Yug!"
"Thank you, thank you." Yami said, walking over to the body of Noctu. He picked up a key piece and a puzzle piece, as well as the card Focus Power. "Rex, lend me your key piece."
Rex reached into his pocket and tossed the golden half handle to Yami, "Ok, here you go."
Yami caught it and took his own piece out of his pocket. He took the small cylinder he won from Dawes, then he took the two identical pieces that Noctu and Rex had produced. They both looked like a 3 leaf clover that had been cut in 2. He put one on each side of the cylinder and in a small burst of light, they fused together to form the handle to the key.
Yami sighed, "Just two more pieces to go.
"
