A/n: hee hee hee heehee hee hee hee...okay I'll stop. Sorry, just a wee bit hyper.**cough** ^_^'

Fire: Baka no ona baka.

What was that?

Fire: **whistles innocently**

How'd you get here? You're not supposed to be here! Go away!

Fire: I'm in your head stupid. I go where you go.

I don't care! Out! Now!

Fire: **sticks her tongue out** nope.

Grrrr **returns the gesture, then turns to the readers**...okay I won't keep you people waiting. Here's chapter 9. Sorry, but the duel with the boy and me is later on in the chapter, I figured I should put a little of yugi's whereabouts in here first. Oh yeah, just to tell you, I know the last chapter kinda skipped a few weeks.but they were boring and at the rate I was going, it would take forever to get to the finals. To give you a good idea, I had 7 ½ whole chapters on their FIRST day. So it's time to get a move on don't cha think? ^_^

~~~chapter 9: DUEL!!!~~~

Yami yugi: I have to find my friends!

Rare hunters: not so fast! **whispering to each other**

Rare hunter #1: who should duel him first?

Rare hunter #2: rock paper scissors?

Rare hunter #1: okay.

Both: rock paper scissors! **both get rock** rock paper scissors! **both get rock**

Rare hunter #1: pick something else will ya!

Rare hunter #2: you pick something else! We'll never get to duel this way!

Both: rock paper scissors! **both get paper** rock paper scissors! **both get scissors**

Yami Yugi: **getting annoyed and impatient**

Kaiba: (tatsu: woo! Here you go kaiba fans! He's in the story at last!)**runs up to the scene** Yugi! I'll duel with you 2 on 2 against these rare hunters.

Yami Yugi: okay.

~~~story mode~~~ as Kaiba and Yugi dueled the rare hunters, Joey had began his own duel against Meko [sp?] Tsunami. The winner would go to the finals. The duel between the rare hunters, yugi and kaiba was quickly finished with the help of Obeliesk the tormentor.

~~script mode~~

Kaiba: GO OBELIESK! SHOW THEM WHY YOU ARE CALLED THE TORMENTOR! **the humongous god wipes out the rare hunters with a loud boom** now. Yugi, will you duel me?

Yami Yugi: not now kaiba, I have to find my friends, they're in danger!

Kaiba: mokuba! Check the computer, track down the whereabouts of the duel disk of Joey wheeler. Yugi, I'll help you find your friends, but then you must promise to duel with me.

Yami Yugi: right. Thank you kaiba.

~~~~story mode~~~~ Meanwhile the duel with the boy, now known as Mike Sullivan (tatsu: heh, sorry if I made you sound a little stuck-up in the last chapter..I wasn't quite sure who the boy would turn out to be..so I'll try to stick to your description of yourself from now on, okay?^_^), and Eden continued. It was the middle of the duel. Neither player had any cards on the field. The life points where as fallows: Eden: 3210, mike: 2000 It was Eden's turn. ~~~script mode~~

Eden: **draws card** I will play dark grey in attack mode, and this card face down. End turn.

Mike: **draws card** ((lousy card..of course, might come in handy later.)) I play this card face down and end my turn.

Eden: **draws card** I will play lady of faith also in attack mode. End turn.

Mike: **draws card** ((alright! My best card!)) I play my best card, sword hunter in attack mode! Sword hunter, attack her dark gray!

Eden: crap **life points are reduced to 1551**

Mike: **snickers** I will end my turn.

Eden: **draws card** I switch lady of faith into defense mode and end my turn.

Mike: **draws card** I don't think so. I activate my stop defense card!(tatsu: mike, if you don't have a stop defense card, then oh well, you do now ^^') Your lady of faith is now vulnerable to attack.. Sword hunter, attack!

Tara: **looking on with her mouth hanging open** well. She's dead.

Kylie:**twitches** no she's not! But yet she is..heh..**looks on in dismay** c'mon tatsu!!!!!

Faith: ....

Life point meter: weeroo! Mike: 2000 lp eden: 10 lp.

Mike: end turn. **smirk**

Eden: **holds her breath and draws a card** ... **lets out a sigh of relief** I play dian keto the cure master bringing my life points up to 1010. ((I can't do much else..i have no monsters on the field..i can't let him attack my life points. I'll just freak him out.. Maybe he'll back off until my next turn.)) I play this card face down in defense mode and also this card face down to back it up. End turn. ((at least now if he attacks..my life points will be safe.))

Mike: **draws card**((hmm that could be a trap, I'll be on the safe side and not attack just yet)) I will play sogen raising my sword hunters attack to 2850 and defense to 1900 and I will play protector of the throne in defense mode for added defense. end turn.

Eden, tara and kylie : **all feel a small twine at the back of their mind**

Mike: does a week monster like that actually frighten you?

Eden:no! it's not that.((that was odd..)) **draws card** ((yes! Now I have MY best card. Heheh)) alright!!! I play wingweaver in attack mode!! I also activate the trap card dna surgery! I choose for all monsters on the field to be machine types. Now I activate (tatsu: insert name of card here ) which allows me to draw three cards. If luck is on my side then I will get the cards I am hoping for. **draws three cards**

Mike: **holds his breath**

Eden:looks like luck is on my side. I play the trap card reinforcements and increase wingweaver's attack to 3250.

Mike: that might take out my sword hunter but it won't do much to my life points.

Eden: I never said I was finished, I also play two 7 completed. Raising the overall attack of my wingweaver to 4650!

Faith: O.O wow.

Kylie: O.O what a comeback

Tara: O.O ....

Eden: now wingweaver attack! Mike: **life points reduce to 200** I'm still not defeted!

Eden: I know. But, I still have another monster on the field remember? **points to the face down card**

Mike: ...

Eden: I flip bottom dweller face up, take out his protector of the throne!

Mike: **life points reduce to 0** I- I lost.

Eden: yes, but you played a fair game.

Mike: you too. Here. My locator cards. And my sword hunter and protector of the throne.

Eden: you don't have to give me those, alls I really need are the locator cards.

Mike: no go ahead you take them. You deserve them. Besides I think there's something about the protector of the throne card..I thought you might want it.

Eden: well, if you insist..**takes the cards and puts them with her deck** I'll take good care of them (.

Kylie: **grabs tara, Faith, and Eden in a big hug** GROUP HUG!!!!!!XD

Eden, Faith and Tara: O_o**choking**

Kylie: heh. **releases them**

Eden: **gets a sudden burst of energy** WAHOOOOO!!!!!!!!! I'M GOING TO THE FINALS!!!!!!!**punches the air** YESSSS!! HAHA!**runs around in circles**

Everyone: **joins in** yay!!!!!!! **jumps around**

~~story mode~~

so the girls stood in the streets celebrating Eden's victory. They jumped around, and had a ball celabratin in the streets as people looked on at them like they were mainiacs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~ A/n: phew.okies sorry it took so long to update, but lemme tell you three is an evil number. I've had three projects piled on me, three finals to study for, my comp crashed 3 times, erased this chapter three times, and I had to rewrite the chapter three times, in, yep you guessed it three days. Then I took a couple week's break to finish my projects, then I finally got around to finishing this. So you see? I've been really busy with school, but I think thins a starting to tone down a bit. So I'll try and write more soon
