Author's Notes: Here comes more of the Trinity.

Also, I'd like to say: Happy Birthday Nick!

Chapter Thirty-One: Dawn of Fate

Ichiji snapped her fingers, and a card on her field flipped up. "I activate Sudden Revival, which works when all the monsters on a player's field are destroyed by an effect. Those monsters are instantly returned to the field! So my sister gets her three monsters back!"

Jigen and the two pikemen appeared exactly as they had been, only Jigen's hand was once again at the three. That meant they had another chance to blow a massive chunk out of Kirani or Dalin's life points. "I end my turn!"

Now the turn was back to San'i, who was ready to deal more damage to their decks. Her two monster's eyes opened, glowing their respective colors as their effects kicked in. "Typherio discards a card off of Mrs. Puppy's deck, and I name Monster Reborn in Mr. Puppy's deck according to Subara's effect."

Dalin ditched his Monster Reborn from his deck, surprised to see it was his top card. Kirani likewise discard her top card, dealing just a little bit more damage to their decks. "Now I summon False Prophet-Veritas(0/1900) in defense mode. Veritas, activate your effect!"

A stern looking man in robes appeared, and snapped his eyes open. They had a fierce red glow to them, and that same glow showed up around Dalin and Kirani's hands. Giant images of the cards appeared above their hands. "As long as Veritas is in play the opposing player, or players in this case, must play with their hands open."

Dalin's card was his trap Energy Absorption, while Kirani's was the equip magic card Lightning Blade. San'i flashed her sisters a bright smile, as now they knew exactly what their opponents had in their hands. "So fast you two are losing. Soon you'll be our puppies! I predict it perfectly!"

Kirani grimaced and drew her card, which instantly had a holographic form appear above her head. "You can see my card, so I might as well play it. Go, Crash of Thunder! During this turn no magic or trap card can be chained against the attack or summon of a monster with Gilford in its name!"

Then she snapped her fingers, and electricity surged around the Child of the Storm. "This is the second standby phase that he's been in play, so now I sacrifice him to special summon Gilford the Lightning(2800/1400) to the field! Not only that, but his effect activates!"

The mighty warrior that was her greatest weapon in her deck swung his blade, and a bolt of lightning crashed down on Asei's field, blasting apart the two pikemen and the time bomb. "Now, since you can see my other card I'll equip it. Gilford gains the Lightning Blade, boosting his attack by eight hundred!"

Gilford the Lightning took up the second blade, and his attack power shot up to thirty-six hundred. "I've got a clear field and it's time for me to go on the attack! Gilford the Lighting, attack Lady Asei directly!"

Gilford jumped forwards and slashed both of his swords across Asei's chest, hurling her backwards. She pouted in disappointment as her life points shrank severley, leaving her in the red zone. All it would take was a measly attack to finish her off. "That was mean of you." (ALP: 400)

"Mean or not, it was certainly effective. Don't think that you'll easily finish us off. Turn end!" She smirked, feeling satisified that she had done her part. That one was dangerous, having the capability to deal serious direct damage to their life points. But the one she was most worried about was San'i, whose deck destruction tactic was burning away their best cards.

Dalin drew, and his card appeared above him. On it an angel appearing to be singing, and little cherubs were dancing to the music. "I activate my magic card, Song of Angels. Provided I have an angel, I may gain fifteen hundred life points. That makes this magic card one of the best life point gain cards in the game of Duel Monsters." (DLP: 2700)

"Next I set one card face down. End turn." His Energy Absorption vanished and then appeared face down on his field. Although the opponent's knew what it was, that didn't make it any worse of a trap. It was still an excellent method to stop attacks and gain life points.

Ichiji snapped another card off her deck, and then took another card from her hand and slid it into her duel disk. "I start off with one of the magic cards I searched for. Painful Choice! I now search my deck for five cards and show them to you. You pick one and the rest are discarded to the grave."

She searched her deck swiftly, and then return it to its normal position after shuffling. She held up her hand and five holographic images appeared in front of her. "Beast of the Depths, Beast of the Depths, Grave Zombie(900/900), Grave Zombie, and Grave Zombie. Take your pick Mrs. Puppy."

Kirani grimaced and pointed at one of the Grave Zombies. After she did so the rest of the cards vanished, and Ichiji added the Grave Zombie to her hand. Her deck then started to groan as it spat out several cards. "According to my two Beasts effects I send two monsters to the grave. Then by the effect of each Grave Zombie I send a monster along with them to the grave to gain five hundred life points." (ILP: 5000)

Six cards spat out of her deck, and she shoved them into the grave along with the other four cards she had chosen. She smirked and took another card from her hand and activated it. "I play Monster Summoning, which lets me special summon one monster from my hand by discarding another monster. So I discard Grave Zombie and use its effect!" Her deck ejected another monster and she slipped the two into the grave. (ILP: 5500)

Dalin clenched his fists in frustration, realizing what was about to happen. 'She has twenty-two monsters in her graveyard and all she's been doing is discarding monsters. I know exactly what that face down monster is and what force she intends to unleash!'

"Thanks to Monster Summoning I now bring out my ultimate creature! Come on out Chaos Necromancer(6600/0)!" Her monster prepared itself to attack by drawing on energy from the graveyard, and its power skyrocketed.

"Chaos Necromancer has an attack equal to the number of monsters in my graveyard times three hundred. That's twenty-two times three hundred, which is sixty-six hundred! But I'm far from done, because I summon Bringer of Beasts(500/1500)!" A simple looking fellow in old fashioned clothes appeared, holding a flute up to his lips.

"This pied piper requires that I sacrifice him and then I get to special summon one monster from my deck to the field of the same level as another I have. So I sacrifice him to summon the second Chaos Necromancer(6900/0)!" An identical creature appeared, giving her an enormous attack force to work with.

"Now I flip my face down monster up, revealing Shadow Ghoul(3900/1600)!" A green beast with sharp talons stood next to her two necromancers, adding his power to theirs. Although its effect was nowhere near as devastating as the Chaos Necromancer's, he was still a force to be reckoned with at his current level of power.

"My three deadly beasts will now attack you all out! The first Chaos Necromancer goes after Seraphim Sabre and Shadow Ghoul attacks your set monster!" The two monsters charged forward, with the third not far behind. But Dalin wasn't about to let this attack continue unabated. He was ready, and he activated one of his face down cards.

"Reveal Draining Shield, to negate Chaos Necromancer's attack! Not only that but I will gain its attack power as life points!" A shield appeared on his arm, and he raised it up to block Chaos Necromancer's attack. Suddenly a purple wisp of smoke crossed the field and covered his shield, shattering it.

"My counter trap is called Trap Jammer, and it negates the activation of your trap and destroys it! Care to try again?" Dalin grimaced and motioned to one of his two remaining sets, and a red beam of energy shot out from it to connect with Chaos Necromancer.

"Energy Absorption negates one monster's attack and increases my life points by half of its attack power! Then the battle phase ends instantly!" Ichiji laughed in amusement as another of her face down cards flipped up, and another cloud of purple smoke broke apart his trap.

"A second Trap Jammer blows apart one of your best traps! You have one more face down card, so do you have any other magic or traps that you think you can play?" Dalin nodded and snapped his fingers. His final face down card came up, and a bright light surrounded Seraphim Sabre. Chaos Necromancer proceeded to blow it into tiny pieces.

"My final trap is called Holy Aura, and it ends your battle phase when one of my angels is destroyed. Also I gain the difference in damage to my life points instead of losing it." The two remaining monsters retreated, leaving Dalin safe for the time being. Not only that but he gained a significant number of life points. (DLP: 8000)

"You're a really impressive duelist Mr. Puppy. But my three beasts will tear you apart soon enough. I just have to wait until my next turn. Till then, stay happy and safe!" She smiled and nodded to her sister, who promptly drew a card for the start of her turn.

Asei pouted slightly at her single card and then placed it on the duel disk. "I set a monster in defense. That's all I have since Mrs. Puppy blew away my field. She'll have to be punished for that soon."

San'i drew and frowned at her sisters. "Asei, you are far too weak. Poor poor weakling. And you Ichiji, you are far too reckless. You must look forwards, not to the past. Only by doing so can you be truly strong. So watch what happens now!"

She pointed to Kirani, and Typherio's hands snapped open. The top card of Kirani's deck was blasted off, and she had to send it to her cemetery. Then San'i pointed at Dalin, and a blue glow surrounded his deck as Subara opened his eyes. "Rise to Heaven!"

Dalin frowned and took the named card from his deck and sent it to the cemetery. Something about this whole situation seemed unusual. 'It's as if they know all the cards in our decks. Yet they don't even know what our names are. Perhaps...hmmm, that may be the case.'

"I understand now exactly what you three are and what you are doing! You are incarnations of power. Ichiji, whose name quite literally means 'first in an order' is the incarnation of the Heart of Past." Next he pointed at Asei, and she blinked in surprise.

"Asei whose name means 'second of the sages' is the incarnation of the Heart of Present. At the same time San'i who is 'third in line' is the Heart of Future. You three are Hearts of Man!" The three sisters giggled and embraced each other, looking highly amused.

"The puppy is very smart, he figured out our secret so fast. We see your past, we see your present, and we see your future. All your strategies are open to us, and we know all that is too come. Of course we have our limits, but we still outmatch you two!" Dalin and Kirani set themselves at the ready, because even though the knew the truth that didn't change the situation.

"Now, back to my turn. I play False Prophetic Vision, which first shows me the top five cards of one player's deck. Mr. Puppy shows me his five cards!" Dalin drew five cards and held them up over his head. They appeared in holographic form, and San'i inspected all three of them.

"Pluto, Angel of Weakening. Earth, Angel of Destruction. Voice of Heavens. Speak No Evil. And last but not least is Sanctity of the Buried. Now that I've seen them, you get to rearrange the order." Dalin nodded as the five cards vanished, and he returned them to his deck in a completely different order.

San'i smiled and held up one finger as if counting. "Next up I get to name the new order. Every card in that order that I guess correctly goes to the cemetery. So first in the order is...Speak No Evil."

Dalin drew, and flipped his card around. "You guess correctly, so Speak No Evil is discarded to the cemetery." He slid it into the grave, and then waited patiently.

"Second card is Earth, Angel of Destruction." Dalin drew and showed her that she was indeed correct. So he discarded Earth, Angel of Destruction. That left three more cards to be named.

"Next I name Voice of Heavens." Dalin picked up the card, and revealed Pluto, Angel of Weakening. San'i pouted, and then tapped her finger against her chin, trying to decide what she thought the next card would be.

"Sanctity of the Buried is your next card isn't it?" He drew, and revealed that once more she had guessed correctly, so Sanctity of the Buried was tossed into the cemetery. That meant that the final card was obvious since she had guess three of four correctly.

"Your last card is actually Voice of Heavens now isn't it? So send it to the grave." The angel duelist did so, having been forced to get rid of four more cards from his deck. San'i smirked and folded her arms, showing that she had nothing more to do for the turn.

Kirani drew, and smirked at the sight of the card. San'i frowned at Kirani's confidence, not liking what she was seeing at all. "Veritas requires that you show me your hand! So show me your hand already!"

"Of course. Here it is, the second Lightning Blade!" She slipped it into her disk, and Gilford sheathed his normal weapon. He grabbed the Lighting Blade out of mid-air and crossed the two weapons. Lightning sparked between them as his power surged upwards to an impressive forty-two hundred attack.

"Gilford the Lightning will attack Shadow Ghoul!" Gilford jumped up into the air, and then came down fast. His twin blades sheared straight through Shadow Ghoul, and it exploded into chunks. Even as the chunks rained down on the field the two necromancers gained power. (TLP: 4700)

"That's all I can do for now. So my turn is over." Kirani smirked, knowing that she had done her piece. She also had something else in mind that required her to get Ichiji's attention. Hopefully this attack had done so.

Dalin drew, and immediately placed his card on the field. "Pluto, Angel of Weakening(1500/0) in defense mode. That's all." Kirani frowned, hoping that Dalin soon drew something good. Although Pluto's effect was worthwhile, it was currently the only thing he had protecting himself, and she couldn't completely save him if he was attacked.

Ichiji smirked and held out her newest card. "Foolish Burial normally lets me send one monster to the grave, but my face down card lets me change that. Go, the second Effect Multiplication!"

A die shot out of her card, and proceeded to roll face-up on a four. That meant that Ichiji got to discard four monsters from her deck and power up her Chaos Necromancers. "Since I now have another four monsters in the grave my Chaos Necromancers(8400/0) become nearly invincible!"

"If your monsters are so invincible, then how come your Shadow Ghoul fell so easily to my Gilford the Lightning. Looks to me more like your monsters are just faking real power. They don't have any actual strength." Ichiji's eyes blazed with irritation, and she punched straight at Gilford the Lightning.

"We'll see who's weak! Chaos Necromancer, destroy Gilford the Lightning!" Her necromancer charged into the fray, but suddenly a barrier of electricity appeared. Chaos Necromancer's body began to convulse as thousands of volts of electricity flowed into it.

"Your monsters are, just like I said. My Storm Barrier destroys the attacking monster and inflicts seven hundred life points of damage to the owner. So meet your own weakness!" Chaos Necromancer exploded, and streaks of lightning shot out to collide with Ichiji. She shrieked as the lightning ran through her body. (ILP: 4000)

Her eyes went wide as she say strands of hair floating around in front of her. She patted her head, and discovered that her head had gone completely frizzy. Kirani smiled smugly at this sight. "You've gone from beauty to bride of Frankenstein. Nice job."

"I hate you! Bad puppy must be punished! Chaos Necromancer(8700/0) will kill Gilford the Lightning!" A blast of black energy ripped apart Gilford the Lightning, and parts of it slammed into Kirani, knocking her into the wall. Ichiji clapped in amusement at seeing the damage done. (KLP: 2300)

"That should have done forty-five hundred damage and finished you off! That's not fair!" Kirani smirked and motioned to her other face down card, which was now face up. It appeared to be a simple metal rod on a box, and electricity was flowing into it. Suddenly it exploded, and a tall form appeared in its place.

"My remaining trap was Lightning Rod, which absorbed twenty-eight hundred points of damage and then was destroyed. When it was destroyed I was able to activate its effect and special summon Gilford the Lightning(2800/1400). Not only that, but Gilford the Lightning gets to activate his special ability!" Ichiji shrieked as a bolt of lightning blew apart Chaos Necromancer, leaving her field completely empty.

"But...but my monsters...end." She pouted, looking extremely disappointed. Her two sisters were glaring at her, obviously upset about how she had been so easily misled into having her best monsters destroyed. Now she was completely defenseless.

Asei drew, and pouted just like her sister. She set the card onto her field, and then she motioned to her sister. "All I can do is that. San'i it's your turn now."

The third sister frowned, obviously irritated with her two other sister's failures. Now she was practically carrying them through this duel. "Typherio, destroy the top card of Mr. Puppy's deck!" Dalin dutifully discarded his card.

San'i then motioned to Subara, whose eyes opened. "Mrs. Puppy now has to discard Formation of Lightning from her deck." Kirani searched for the card and easily discarded it. She doubted she would have gotten the chance to activate it this turn anyways.

"Now I summon False Prophet-Metrion(700/1600) in defense position. During each of my opponent's turns I can name one card in their hand. If it exists there, they have to discard it. Can you see the combo?" Dalin and Kirani both frowned, realizing that since they were both top decking that neither would be able to get any new cards.

"My turn ends there." Kirani drew, and immediately Gilford of Thunder was blown out of her hand. With nothing new to play, she had only one choice. It was time to go on the attack once again and hope for the best.

"Gilford the Lightning, attack Lady Ichiji with your Thunderbolt Cut!" Gilford roared and slammed his sword down on her shoulder, driving her to her knees. She grimaced, upset at losing so many life points and that neither of her sisters had bothered to defend her from the attack. (ILP: 1200)

Next it was Dalin's turn, and he drew only to have his Pot of Greed blasted away. He narrowed his eyes, and the motioned at Subara. "I've decided to test your bluff. Pluto, eliminate Suabara!" A wave of energy from the angel burned away the False Prophet.

"Just as I thought. And in my next turns I will destroy your other prophets, as will Kirani. End turn." The other two sisters stuck their tongues out at San'i, who now looked like she might be equally in trouble as they were.

Ichiji drew and smiled at whatever she had drawn. "I set a monster in defense mode, and that's all for me."

Asei drew, and then motioned to her sister. "I pass this turn. San'i has the field again."

San'i drew her next card, and then smiled at what she saw. She shared a glance with her sister, then carefully placed the monster she had drawn onto the field. "I set a monster. Now Typherio destroys the top card of Mr. Puppy's deck."

Dalin discarded it, pausing for a moment at what he had seen. He smirked slightly, barely noticed by any of them. "I...end my turn."

Kirani snapped a card off her deck, and instantly flipped it around, revealing Mystical Space Typhoon. "Before you can blow it out of my hand I'll chain it to destroy that face down card of yours, just in case."

The only face down card on the field vanished as a little gust of wind shattered it. "Now, time to close you off from seeing what we have. Gilford the Lightning attacks Veritas and blows it away!" Her monster slashed the truth seer in half, breaking down San'i's hand lock combo. Now they could freely draw without impediment.

"End Turn!" The three sisters frowned, realizing that now their opponents had a chance to recover. There was no telling what these two were capable of when they really had the chance to really make a comeback. It was bound to be bad for them.

Dalin snapped a card off his deck, and then surveyed the field. 'They're planning something, but risking an attack is foolish. For the moment my best option is to defend.'

"I set one card face down, and then I move Pluto, Angel of Weakening into defense mode. End turn." His blue skinned angel shifted into a crouching position, and then he was finished for the time being.

Ichiji now had her turn, and she knew exactly what to do. "I've got just one thing to do for the moment. I flip my face down monster, and reveal Saga-Seer of the Past(1600/1200)! Each turn she lets me activate one card effect in the cemetery, unfortunately I have to wait till the standby phase to do this."

The monster that she had flipped looked exactly like her, only it was dressed in white form fitting robes. Both Dalin and Kirani knew that a card looking like its owner was never a good thing. "My Saga is of no use at the moment, but soon she will be part of the cause of your demise. End turn!"

Asei flipped her newest card around, and smiled as one of her face down monsters vanished into the wind. "I activate Magic the Gathering. By sacrificing one monster I can add a magic card from any player's deck into a player of my choice's hand. So I'll take a magic card from my deck and put it into my sister San'i's hand."

San'i smirked and walked over to Asei. Asei then took a card from her deck and handed it to San'i who gladly accepted it. Then they both return to their previous positions, ready for the turn to continue. "Thank you sister, I shall use this magic card well."

"Of course sister, I know you will. Now I flip a set monster of my own. Come out Circa-Seer of Today(1700/1300)! As long as she is in play all effects we play are doubled!" Yet another identical monster appeared, the only difference being this one wore a green dress instead of a white one.

"Like Saga her effect will not be used yet. However she is still part of the trinity that will be the cause of your demise. In only a short time you will be utterly finished!" She cackled with joy, and finished her turn at that.

The third of the sisters slipped a card off her deck, and then pointed at Kirani. Typherio opened his eyes, and the top card of Kirani's deck was blasted away. Then she reached down to her duel disk. "Prepare the final member of the trinity which will cause your demise. Kismet-Seer of Fate(1800/1400)!"

This one was also identical, but wore a red dress. "While Kismet is face-up on the field I draw one card during the end of my turn. Under normal circumstances with Circa in play this would mean I drew two cards each end phase. But I have something much worse in mind."

Dalin narrowed his eyes as he felt the power between the three begin to build up. Their strength was rapidly growing, and their connection with these three monsters were also growing with each second. "Prepare to meet your fate at the hands of the magic card my sister gave to me through her card's effect!"

She held the card up over her head, and a sphere of light began to consume their side of the field, covering all the monsters and themselves. From within her voice could be heard. "My magic card is Dawn of Time, and can only be activated when the three Seers are in play! It returns all cards to our decks and lets us draw five cards!"

The sphere of light started growing, taking up everything they had previously seen. Then it started to open like a flower, and Dalin could feel power pulsing within. Slowly it opened, and revealing four women. Ichiji, Asei, San'i, and something else that stood in front of them. "This is the moment of truth when your fate is revealed! The joining of our power!"

The identical woman in front of them had robes that glowed with an intense inner light, and it was radiating raw power. Whatever it was, it was incredibly deadly. "Dawn of Time also lets us sacrifice our three Seers in order to summon a creature with unlimited power!"

The beautiful monster raised her hand over her head and let loose a crystal clear note that shook the entire building they were in. "This is Trinity-Seer of Destiny(4000/4000) a divine creature of incredible power!"

"Trinity, attack Gilford the Lightning!" Trinity raised one hand, and Gilford suddenly shattered into tiny pieces. Kirani grimaced as her monster faded away. Her life points also trickled away from the difference in power between the two. (KLP: 1100)

"Now I set one card face down, and that's the end of my turn." She smirked, happy with the damage she had done. The three sisters chuckled in amusement at the predicament that they had created for their opponents.

Kirani closed her eyes, and then drew. A bright red glow exploded around her, and the card in her hand vanished as kanji appeared on her forehead. "The Heart of Love will be my weapon against you two. I can now let one player draw two cards at a cost of five hundred life points. So Dalin will draw two cards!" (KLP: 600)

Dalin nodded and drew twice. "These two cards...one for each of us. That is what this is." Kirani smiled at him, and then finished her turn.

Next he drew for the start of his turn, and fanned out the three cards in his hand. "I start by setting a monster in defense mode. Then I set one magic or trap card face down. End Turn."

Ichiji drew, and motioned to Trinity. "I activate the effect of Trinity. Once per turn the controller discards the top card of their deck out of play. Then Trinity's attack and defense points double to eight thousand a piece!"

Trinity's power shot up, and then she raised her hand to point at Kirani. "My mighty Trinity shall attack Mrs. Puppy directly to finish her off for good!"

A stream of light shot out, and then vanished away. Dalin popped five cards out of his cemetery and placed them in his back pocket. "I used the effect of Sanctity of the Buried to negate your attack at a cost of five cards from my graveyard."

"Fine with me. My turn is over!" She smirked, leaving six cards in her hand. Obviously she had something planned. Plus each turn Trinity's attack would double, and it would quickly become enormously powerful.

Now it was Asei's turn, and she immediately tossed aside the top card of her deck. "Trinity reaches an enormous power of sixteen thousand!" Trinity's glow raised, as did its power. That made it even a greater threat.

"I attack with Trinity!" The next blast of light flickered out before it managed to strike either duelist, leaving no trace behind. Dalin held up the card he had face down, revealing it to be a quick-play magic card.

"Light Barrier allows me to defend us from being attacked by monsters for the duration of the turn. That means you're done." Asei scowled and slid two cards from her hand onto her duel disk, before finishing her turn.

San'i discarded her card for the turn, and Trinity became a demon of thirty-two thousand points. "Now I activate my face down card, Effect Speciality Activation! Each of us discards our hands to activate our monster's passive ability once for each. That's fifteen times doubled!"

Dalin and Kirani watched in awe as Trinity doubled fifteen times in a row. "This is the unlimited power of Trinity-Seer of Destiny(1048576000/1048576000)!" Its power was absolutely awe inspiring, and somehow more threatening than Taichi's Knight of Kuriboh because it had a real number as an attack and defense.

"Now, attack them Trinity!" Before the attack even got going Dalin's remaining set card revealed itself, and a spirit of some sort wrapped around Trinity holding it in place. Trinity shattered the bonds, and then sat still.

"Your Trinity fell prey to my trap card, Soul of Light which prevents your creature from attacking and raises my life points by one hundred times the level. So thank you for the life points." Soul energy flowed into his duel disk, and pumped up his life points. (DLP: 9200)

"So be it! My turn is over!" She scowled and folded her arms across her chest, upset but still confident in the absolute strength of her god. After all, it had over a billion attack and defense points, more strength than any other beast could possibly have.

Kirani drew, and then slapped a card onto her duel disk. "Gilford the Swift(1400/500) in defense mode. Go ahead Dalin, finish them off."

Dalin nodded, and snapped two cards off his deck according to the effect she had granted him. "Now, I sacrifice Pluto, Gilford the Swift, and my face down monster in order to summon the Winged Divine Dragon of Ra(4600/1200)!"

A giant golden sphere appeared above him, and Dalin began chanting. As soon as he had finished, Ra unlocked itself and was revealed in its dragon form, gold and deadly with an impressive attack power. "Now I activate Oracle of Rebirth, discarding my entire hand to allow me to revive one level six or higher monster from the cemetery and pick up five cards from the grave or five from my deck as a new hand!"

He ejected five cards from his cemetery, and suddenly a massive blue armored form appeared next to Ra, being of equal size. "I use the effect of Oracle of Rebirth to unleash the strong of Obelisk the Tormentor(4000/4000)!"

The three members the Trinity didn't look bothered in the slightest, as neither monster had the power to defeat them. "Your monsters are far to weak to defeat the Trinity."

"We shall see. Now, I activate Monster Reborn and revive Saint Dragon Osiris(4000/4000)!" A massive red dragon with a serpentine body appeared next to the other two gods, and roared at the trinity. They shrank back slightly in fear of the three gods.

"I activate Dance of the Phoenix at a cost of one thousand life points! Ra, enter your Phoenix form and burn away Trinity!" Ra suddenly changed shape and became a massive fiery phoenix, which dropped down upon the woman. She shrieked in agony as her flesh was boiled away, and in under a minute she was completely gone. (DLP: 8200)

"Impossible!" Dalin raised his right arm and pointed at them, a look of sheer confidence upon his face.

"I've disproved that far too many times to care. Obelisk and Osiris will now attack San'i and Asei!" One massive fist descended upon Asei and blasted her out of the building, while a stream of purple energy sent San'i following her. Osiris and Ra shrieked their success. (ALP: 0, SLP: 0)

He folded his hand upon and bowed slightly to the gods. Then Osiris and Obelisk faded away, as gods could not be revived from the cemetery for more than one turn. Now only Ra remained, but that would be enough.

Ichiji felt her hands shaking, knowing fear for the first time in her existence. But she was far from finished. "Pot of Greed!"

She slipped two cards off her deck, and then immediately played one of them. "Dance of the Dead allows me to send every monster from my deck to my cemetery at a cost of half of my life points! So now I send a total of 35 monsters to the graveyard!" (ILP: 600)

She dumped almost her entire deck into the cemetery, leaving her with a fairly sparse deck remaining. All she had left was a single card in her hand. "Now, I summon Chaos Necromancer(10500/0)!"

"This creature's strength is greater even than your god's so now I will finish you off! Chaos Necromancer, eliminate Ra!" The necromancer launched a ball of black energy straight at Ra, intent on finishing it off once and for all. But when she looked again, she saw that Dalin didn't appear worried in the slightest.

"I activate one of Ra's special abilities. I pay sixty-five hundred life points to raise Winged Divine Dragon of Ra's attack by that same amount. Now, Ra(11100/1200), God Breath Cannon!" The god opened its mouth wide, and launched a golden beam of energy. The beam of energy smashed straight through the black beam, and swept straight over Chaos Necromancer as if it were nothing. (ILP: 0)

"No! Impossible!" The bema of energy struck Ichiji and exploded, blasting her straight out of the building to join her siblings. Dalin sighed as the last of the three faded from sight, and shut down his duel disk. Kirani did the same and the two walked out of the building, finding no trace of the Trinity anywhere.

They picked up Hikari, and went on their way.

Eikyuu glanced down at the three empty shells that had once been women. Had he had a mouth he would have been frowning. "So the Trinity were defeated? Quite impressive. Although, in the end it doesn't matter. Because I have three more Hearts of Man in my possession."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A figure stood on a roof top, watching the three duelists walk down a back alley. Their strength had defeated opponents she thought could not be defeated. "These could be the ones, but if they are to stop Eikyuu then they need greater strength. They must face the Trials."
