Thank god i'm finnally finished with this round onto the beautiful sunny shores of the island, after this duel.

Disclamer; I own nothing in this story, I stole it all I say, it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Imagine a place, parallel to a dimension.

The sort of place you might find a weird mirror or a spooky door.

My friend, you have just entered.....

The stoner's realm.....

(Intro scenes)

(Explosions!)

(Duels)

(A cook Juggling with two knives)

(The Winged Dragon Of Ra, and Slyther the sky dragon flying together towards a boat.)

(Kaiba pointing at Obelisk the Tormentor)

(Big Explosion)

YUGIOH,

ENTER THE STONER'S REALM

The sun glistened off a porthole on the side of boat 1, a fish jumped out of the water and fell back in, sharks circled the boat waiting for another tasty treat to be thrown in, and on deck 2 people were duelling.

"You challenged me, so I go first."

Vincienzo drew his cards and placed one trap card face down.

"Your move."

"Ha, you're not even defending yourself, I summon spear dragon in attack mode, attack Vincienzo directly!"

The Italian held out his hand; "Don't be so hasty, I activate the trap card gravity bind. Nothing with more than 3 stars may attack."

The field shimmered blue and gridlines appeared everywhere, pinning the spear dragon to the ground.

Derek grumbled under his breath then placed a trap card onto the field also. "Your move."

Vincienzo straightened his tie and adjusted the line of his suit.

"No great schemes then? I'll place another card face down and end my turn."

Puzzled, Derek drew another card

This is just what I need, I'll have to wait to use it, spear dragon's not powerful enough and this is an easy way to get around that gravity bind.

Derek laid a monster card face down.

"I have a card that can beat you Vincienzo, and I can wait, my whole deck is full of different strategies. And what ever you summon can't touch my life points."

"Funny thing."

The Italian drew another card.

"So is mine, and you should never rely too heavily on monsters."

He laid a monster card on his duel disk.

Sparks flew up from the holographic card, and a flaming lantern appeared.

"And please don't insult my intelligence again, Inaba attack!"

A ghostly rabbit appeared in the flames then dived out through the spear dragon and plunged into Derek's chest.

"Then I end my turn."

The rabbit jumped from the field into the gentleman's hand, pulling its card with it.

"I'm not one of these guys who explain every thing his card does, if you haven't seen it before, so you'll have to guess."

Derek drew a card then slid it into a trap slot.

The card shimmered onto the field.

"Another trap ey? Well your last one did you no good."

Vincienzo drew a card and placed another magic/trap card on the field, then he summoned his Inaba White Rabbit again."

"I think you know what happens next. Inaba attack!!"

The rabbit flew forward but just before it reached the Derek's spear dragon a suit of armour appeared encasing the little spirit and dragging it to the ground, where it exploded, showering the duellists with holographic goo.

Deek looked smug behind the trap card he'd raised; Sakuretsu Armor.

"Don't smile for too long, watch this American!"

As Vincienzo ended his turn, Inaba the White rabbit stuck its head out of his graveyard, and the disk ejected its card into the Mafia boss's waiting hand.

Derek just glowered and drew a card. "Finally, I activate remove trap and destroy your gravity bind."

"Now Spear dragon attack his life points directly.

Vincienzo flipped a switch on his duel disk and out of nowhere; a javelin flew, impaling the dragon.

The dragon pulled the Enchanted Javelin out of its side, then dived into the don

The Italian inhaled a big cloud of smoke.

"They're using good stuff here now."

The spear dragon settled back into place then raised its wings in a defensive stance.

"Not a bad move you just did, took out two of my traps."

Vincienzo drew again.

"Ah but I shall now stop you attacking with my swords of revealing light and bring my Inaba back."

The white rabbit appeared with its torch, and a swarm of swords appeared around Derek his defensive monster card flipped, revealing a dragon dwelling in the cave;

"Now Inaba attack!"

The rabbit jumped at Derek and smashed him round the head with the torch it was carrying.

Derek drew.

"If you're so good, why aren't you already on the island?"

The Italian laughed;

"I'm a businessman, I've won battle after battle, then I sold my points, there are some easy opponents in round 2. You have to adopt a strategy for who you play as well as how you duel, and it helps to make a bit of money. "

"I place one monster face down and end my turn."

"You can't win by defending."

Vincienzo flicked a card off the top of his deck, into his hand.

I summon Inaba The White rabbit and activate Mask of brutality!

Inaba The White rabbit Attk: #1700#

The ghost of the rabbit jumped out of the now ever present torch and pulled on a shaman's mask of brutality.

"Now attack!"

The rabbit dived into Derek's chest, and as he inhaled the vapours from the burning cannabis, he thought of a new plan.

Derek drew not the card We need, but if it comes to me soon, We can use this to make it stronger than We realised. He must have very few monsters, so We can use our saved defence.

"I'll end my turn."

"Furry-muff,"

The Italian drew a card, then summoned his Inaba again.

"This must be very repetitive. Inaba, attack!!!!"

Again the rabbit swung itself off the torch at Derek, but this time, he activated his trap card and the rabbit was met with the strong power of a mirror force card. The waves of energy blasted the little rabbit out of the sky and it returned to Vincienzo's hand.

"I'll end my turn and since I have 7 cards in my hand, I'll discard one to the grave. Your move."

Derek drew.

Yes, last turn of his swords of revealing light, hmm, not a great trap, but it should work with our combo, if only to do a little bit more damage.

"I place one card face down and end my turn."

As the card shimmered into place the barrier of swords disappeared.

Vincienzo drew and laughed at his card.

"Well, too late now, I activate monster reborn to bring back the card I discarded last turn Blue eyes White Dragon!!"

The card rose out of the ground, with a picture of a dragon looking majestic, then suddenly, it started to move inside the picture, then it broke free of its prison and grew as it fled its card.

"I'll use it to destroy your dragon dwelling in the cave first, Blue eyes!! Stinging tail attack!"

The enormous white dragon flew towards the green scaly dragon and hit it with its tail, knocking it far into the purple smog. Onlookers watched the hologram fall into the sea.

"Your move."

Derek concentrated on his deck, willing the card he wanted to be there to appear, if it didn't he was royally screwed. He shut his eyes and reached out for his deck, the seconds seemed to slow down to a walking pace and time almost fell to a standstill. His hand touched the edge of his deck and he slowly inched the card out of the holder.

With his eyes still closed he brought it up to his face and slowly lifted his eye lids. Then he noticed Vincienzo's face down card still on the field

If that trap card is something good, then We'd have gambled all our cards away for nothing

But he'd still lose lp and we haven't taken any yet off him, it'd be a start.

We'd have to rely on every card we got from our deck, but we wouldn't have lost, yet, that Inaba of his would take a while to whittle us down, and we'd just need a monster reborn of our own, plus if it was anything good he'd probably haveused it already..

"I'll do it." Said Derek

"What?"

"I summon Maha Vailo in attack mode and switch my dark fire soldier and my spear dragon to attack mode, then I use fissure to destroy your blue-eyes."

AS the spellcaster gracefully climbed out of its card, a crack appeared below the blue-eyes white dragon, swallowing it whole.

So far so good

"Next I equip Maha Vailo with 2 dark pendants and a malevolent Nuzzler! Due to my spell caster's special ability on top of those bonuses it gets an extra 1500 attack points"

Maha Valio Attk: #4750#

"Now, all 3 of my monsters, attack Vincienzo directly!"

The spell caster swung its staff, the warrior swung its flaming sword, and the dragon flew towards its prey, magical, heat and physical attacks hit the Italian at the same time, forcing large quantities of smoke into his lungs.

"You finished?"

Derek nodded.

Vincienzo drew.

At last, I can finally squash you like the bug you are. I activate Black Luster Ritual and because you reduced my life points I can finally use my megamorph I've had on the field all game!"

"I sacrifice 3 gradius options, and 2 Inabas to summon Black Luster Soldier!"

The monsters easch came to life as he slotted them in the graveyard before impaling themselves on the sword, the armour shook and suddenly grew into an enormous warrior.

Black Luster Soldier Attk: #3000#

"Now deck master add 50 of its attack power!"

The warrior grew.

Black Luster Soldier Attk: #4500#

"Activate Megamorph!"

The warrior doubled in size.

Black Luster Soldier Attk: #9000#

"Now attack the dark fire soldier and win me the match!!!!"

"Not so fast Mario, I activate the trap card needle ceiling!"

"What?"

The ceiling fell down on all the monsters on the field, sticking spikes through them all, as the black pendats were pierced they each exploded, sending energy waves at Vincienzo, causing him to inhale more smoke

Derek Conklin !!WINNER!!

Vincienzo's face went white and he ripped off his gasmask, the illusory shadow realm fading away.

Derek took the italian's blue-eyes to add to his own collection, then ran to the waiting speedboat while the don threw up noisily behind him.
