Chapter 23: Epic Battle! Crystals Clash pt. 3
Sparks flew off the ground as the Mech Dragon's feet scraped across the floor. Wind being generated from the battle blew off and made the kid's hair fly dramatically backwards. Deadalus roared as it's head smashed into the floor. Wheezing, the Mech Dragon tried to free himself from the serpents body that was wrapped around him, squeezing the air out of him.
Akina, still gagged and tied to the wall next to Sachiko, felt a tear going down the side of her face. She looked at the two boys dueling. The shadow realm was filled with ruby and sapphire colored aura that was violently coming off the kids. She felt the wind from the battle hitting her.
"Reku, Ronin." She looked back and forth between the two kids. She stopped and stared at Ronin. "What happened to the sweet kind boy that I knew. You did always aim to be the best and fought for what was right. You didn't step on anyone for the fun of it, only the jerks that needed it." Images of Ronin flashed back into her head. Him dueling, smiling, laughing and joking, running and playing. Then looking at the Ronin on the field. Now his eyes were cold as the symbol glowed on his head. His body was covered in the sapphire colored aura. A wicked smile was plastered on his face. He didn't seem to care anymore, he just wanted power and to destroy Reku.
She then looked at her boyfriend. "Reku, I know this isn't like you. The sweet and kind guy I fell in love with is gone. You, like Ronin, strive to be the best but don't intend to do it by stomping on others." The images of Reku flew threw her mind. Smiling, playing, dueling, the compassion and care he gave her in the World Tournament when Sachiko was taken by the shadow realm. The Reku on the field was just like Ronin, cold, heartless, seeking to destroy. "Are the crystals evil?" She wondered.
"Akina, please don't mistake the crystals for evil." Orders voice floated into her head.
"Then why do they act like this?" She pleaded with Order. "Tell me the truth, what are these crystals!"
"Fine, Akina I will tell you the truth. These crystals are a part of a greater power. Have you wondered why the monsters that they summon are so strong?"
"Yes I have."
"It is because of what they are, they have fused with elements from the earth. All the crystals have earthly names. Ruby, Sapphire, Amethyst, and so on."
"They are all minerals!"
"Yes, When the ultimate force came here, the stones embedded in your medallions, it broke up in your atmosphere. Small chunks fell off. These chunks breaking created something that opened the realm to the dominion of the beast. That is why you all found your crystals there. The dominion of the beast has the same properties of earth. The large chunk was found by many ancient ones. They built the castle that you all were in onto of the crystal to hide it from evil."
"Oh but why did they build the castle around it, why didn't they just move it to another location?"
"It was far to large. But that isn't the point. The small chunks are what you found. Ruby, Sapphire, and Amethyst. They took on characteristics of the mineral they found and turned that color. Over time, the power of the main crystal diminished and the powers started to separate. That is why each crystal has a different unique ability."
"And the essence monsters?"
"The only thing that couldn't diminished was the soul breaker power. Every monster has a seal around its soul. An essence monster is one that had that seal broken. It not only is real but any power that it had is fully unlocked. The only way to control an essence monster is to have a small fragment of the ultimate stone. That is why you all have your medallions. But the side effect is that monster's body is then weakend. It needs to be recharged by the ultimate force or it only will fight at half power."
"Oh, and now why are they evil?"
"There not per say. As per human nature, power is the goal. When humans taste just a little bit they seek more. No one has ever escaped this. This power came here over ten thousand years ago. Its magic is great and you are all new to it. Your bodies can handle the power but not the full extent. That is why they come off as evil."
Another tear fell down Akina's face. "I see."
Reku place another card in his hand.
Ronin then pulled another card, he smiled coldly. "I sent Umi to the grave to destroy all cards on the field."
"My monster can't be destroyed!" Reku said in a 'know it all' manner.
"Well your Equal the Candle Wax can be!" Shattering, the card disappeared leaving Mech Dragon without it's power (3500/2000). Ronin slid one card into his duel disk and Deadalus charged and rammed into the dragon's chest knocking the wind out of it.
Reku-550 LP
Ronin-100 LP
Reku drew "I play Sacred Blue Flame! It ups my monsters attack by 500 for this attack (4000/2000)!"
"I counter with down card Fuel for the Fight! It gives 700 points to one monster if you increased your attack strength (4300/1500) then loses 100 each of my turns. Mech Dragon grabbed Deadalus's head just to be tripped by the monsters ferocious tail. With a loud crash and a quick ripple, almost destroying the shadow ream, earthquake.
Reku-400 LP
Ronin-100 LP
Ronin drew as Deadalus (4200/1500)bit down on Mech Dragon's (3500/2000) skin breaking it open. Blood rushed out along with some oil.
Reku-50 LP
Ronin-100 LP
"One more turn, take it and Deadalus Sapphire can kill Mech dragon forever!"
Reku grimaced and looked at his hand. He read the cards off in his mind. "Let's see: Robotic Knight (1600/1800), UFO Turtle (1400/1200), Twin Headed Fire Dragon (2200/1700), Spirit of Flames (1700/1000), Flame Ninja (1500/1200), Barrel Dragon (2600/2200). Six useless monsters in this fight. Why did I fill this deck with useless monsters?" He pulled the top card from his deck and placed it into the duel disk. "There is one card that will win me this." "I play Pot of Greed! Draw two cards!" Snapping one card off his deck he flipped it around. "First card is Jinzo (2400/1500). Second card..." Pulling the card off his deck, lightning flashed off around it. "The one card I borrowed for this fight!"
"What did you borrow!" Ronin yelled over to Reku as he held up the card, a purple aura flew off around it.
"NO!" Akina's head was filled with Orders yell. "If he plays that card then you may never see Reku or Ronin ever again!"
"I play Oracles Rage Incarnate Seal of Power-Amethyst Crystal!"
Jamming it into the slot next to the Ruby Crystal an eruption of purple sparks flew out. The symbol on Reku's head flowed not only with ruby coloring now but a purple on as well. The aura around him started to swirl with purple and red. Lightning shot out everywhere. A large wind picked up that blew the robe right off Tal. Underneath was a buffed up man. Wearing a dark green tank top. An army style hair cut of black hair was on his head. Black colored pants and army style boots. On his are was the dark blue duel disk Chaos had given him.
Joe and Kevin yelled as they threw the cards out of their hands. Energy flew off them in streams of light, smashing the windows and pictures around the room.
The tree Gurabe was in shook and broke apart. Landing on his feet, Gurabe looked around for the card. It was laying in the middle of the opening below the branch where he was. A violent aura was flowing off it as well as a lightning storm.
Chaos jumped up and far away from his throne. The power of the Crystal broke apart the small table and the throne that he was sitting on.
Roaring to the sky, the Mech Dragon was over come with a purple and red glow. Purple spikes of crystals shot out next to the ruby ones. Reku, also screaming into the sky, burst out wave after wave of aura. The medallion started shining sending beams of light flowing off in all directions.
"Meet Mech Dragon Blaster Ruby Amethyst Mode!" Reku yelled pointing the new beast on his field. The floor cracked and crumbled underneath its feet. The shadow realm rippled violently. "For Amethyst Crystal's power I send monsters in my hand to the grave to up the attack of my monster by the attack of the monsters offered. I discard: Robotic Knight, UFO Turtle, Twin Headed Fire Dragon, Spirit of Flames, Flame Ninja, Barrel Dragon, and Jinzo! That ups my attack by 13400 attack points (16900/2000). ATTACK HIM NOW!"
Charging a ball of ruby and purple, the monster recoiled as it shot it out. Deadalus was engulfed in the violent burst of energy. Continuing on the ball hit the edge of the shadow realm, breaking it apart. The ground was torn up in the violent head from the burst attack.
Reku-50 LP
Ronin-0 LP
A chard body of Ronin fell over soulless on the field in front of Reku. Mech Dragon Blaster Ruby Amethyst Mode remained roaring. The two girls braces broke apart in the last attack so they fell to the ground. Pulling the ball gag out of her mouth, Akina ran over to Reku. Getting up next to him she could tell he was smiling and chuckling with a dark, cold stare in his eye.
"DESTROY!" Reku pointed to the wall. The monster let out a stream of energy that blasted the entire wall off the room. Reku threw his head back in hysterical laughter. The aura around him pushed Akina back.
"REKU YOU JERK!" Sachiko yelled, tears in her eyes, as she ran up to him. Running in front of him she doubled back her fist and punched Reku right in the center of his face. He fell backwards landing on his back. Blood gushed out of his nose as the symbol slowly disappeared. Mech Dragon Blaster disappeared off the field in a burst of light, as its roars continued to echo in the room. The sparks in the duel disk stopped as the two crystal cards were ejected. The slowly fluttered to the ground.

Sorry about the delay in this chaper, but here it is.
To Darksoulki: Okay then. What ever you say.
To John: Many people do. Most of my deck don't have dragon cards anywere. I just said in my story there are three people that you need to worry about that own dragons. Oh and Darksoulki wanted me to ask you to check out his fic. He got a few mistakes and is a pain up the back-side but he just wanted me to ask you.
To Nanashi: No I get it. And I think it made a bigger difference in Adriel vs. Ichigo. Jun did have a hell deck which was fire somewhat.
