Chapter 21: The Black Gate Test, Part V: Your Strongest Weapons
(This duel has been easier and easier. No real threats have posed me. Plus, thanks to my deck master special ability I can recharge my life points every turn.) Damien thought, ending his turn.
Yugi drew. (Just the card I needed!) he thought. "I activate Black Luster Ritual!" announced Yugi as two pots and a square with two swords crossing materialized behind Yugi's monsters. "By sacrificing my Beta the Magnet Warrior and Gamma the Magnet Warrior, I am able to call one of the most powerful warriors in all of duel monsters!" he burst while his two magnet warriors entered separate pots. The pots then shot vortexes of blue and purple energy into the sky. The square sprung straight and a yellow organism shot from it. The yellow covering dispersed, revealing the Black Luster Soldier (3000/2500).
"Now Black Luster Soldier, attack Darkbishop Archfiend!" commanded Yugi as the monster slashed the ground sending a shockwave of energy at the archfiend monster. The energy hit the monster and disintegrated him.
"Go Death Volstargaf (3800/1700) attack and wipe out his life points!" commanded Yugi as the monster launched a metallic blue blast heading at a rapid pace towards Damien.
"Reverse trap, Negate Attack." Damien plainly said while a magic vortex appeared and absorbed the attack. (I'm running out of traps) he thought.
(Why did he do that? He could have negated my Black Luster Soldier's attack and saved a monster) he thought.
"Now I reveal my last set card, Reverse! Back to me again!" Damien interrupted while drawing. "Now I summon Tsuchi (200/1200) in attack mode. Next, I'll activate my monster's special ability! I can sacrifice it to draw 6 cards from my deck when I have none." He explained while his monster disappeared into the abyss, and Damien drew 6 new cards.
(Great) thought Joey.
"Finally I can fulfill the promise I had to destroy Kevin. For you see, my monster was special summoned, and when its destroyed I can special summon another monster from my hand. So I summon X Head Cannon (1800/1500) in attack mode! Then, I'll summon Z Metal Tank (1500/1300)! But wait! I can sacrifice these 2 monsters in order to summon the XZ- Tank Cannon (2400/2100)!" he exclaimed as his two monsters appeared on the field then fused into one.
"Thanks to my Tank Cannon's special ability, I can discard two cards from my hand to destroy two face down cards. So, say goodbye to your two face down cards Kevin!" proclaimed Damien as two missiles came from the tank cannon, impaling both face down cards.
(No...) thought Kevin.
"Now go XZ-Tank Cannon, attack and destroy Panther Warrior!" commanded Damien while the monster launched a missile, which impaled and destroyed the panther. (J's LP: 2600)
"I'll set these two cards face down to end my move." Damien added.
Yugi drew. (Why didn't he use his deck master special ability?) pondered Yugi. (Oh well. Let's not give him time to. I've got a Fusion card in my hand. Should I fuse Black Luster Soldier with Kaiba's Ultimate Dragon? I'll hold on to it until my next turn.) he thought. "Go Black Magician Girl Valkyria (1600/1200) in attack mode! Go now Death Volstargaf, attack the XZ Tank Cannon!" commanded Yugi as the monster unleashed another metallic blue blast, annihilating the cannon monster. (D's LP: 1950)
"Activate trap!" Damien sprung. "Intercepting Units! See, when you have a monster that could wipe out my life points and I have no monster on the field, my trap summons 5 Defender Walls (0/2000) to the field in defense mode!" he announced as five black shields lined up, protecting Damien.
"Well I can tear one down! Black Luster Soldier, attack a Defender Wall!" commanded Yugi once more as the soldier smashed the ground, and disintegrated one of the shields. Yugi then was shocked to see his life points lower (Y's LP: 3400)
"Oh I forgot to mention, whenever one of my defending tokens is destroyed, the controller of the attacking monster loses 500 life points." Damien sarcastically acted.
Kevin drew. (I'm the only person with that Plasma Eel still on my monster.) he thought, drawing one of his favorites, not to mention best cards, Buster Blader. He smiled. "Now Kaiser Glider, attack!" declared Kevin.
But Damien had other plans. "Reverse trap card, Power Sealing Box!" shouted Damien. A woman appeared and mentally moved Meteor Dragon in the air. "You see my trap lets me selected one monster on the field. Then, until my next turn, a monster with an attack higher than Meteor Dragon's can't attack. So my life points are safe!" he proclaimed. (Cyber Tech Alligator: 500/1600)
Kaiba drew. "I pass." He muttered.
Joey drew. "Well you're life points are close to safe! But I still have this card in my deck, Little Winguard (1400/1800)!"
(He's becoming a menace.) thought Damien while he drew. (Heh heh. Just the card I want!) "Now I summon M-Warrior #3 (800/800) who lets me automatically summon a monster from my hand with less than 1000 attack points! So, meet Ojama Yellow (0/1000) in defense mode!" he exclaimed as a yellow creature came onto the field. It jiggled. "Then to make your matters even worse, I'll activate the healing magic of Pure People's Reward, another card created by yours truly, raising my life points by 5000 since I have less than 1500 life points (D's LP: 5550)
"Finally, I can seal your fate! Engage Final Countdown!" he called as a ring with 20 spaces to be filled hovered above the playing field. White energy came from Damien, moving to the center of the ring. One piece of energy flew into an opening on the ring, immediately filling it with fire.
"You see, for the mere price of 2000 life points (D's LP: 3550), every time anyone's turn begins, my ring will light up another space until each and all 20 are full. Then, comes a surprise. Let's put it this way, you don't want them to get to 20. I do. And if you fail in defeating my ring, well, all 4 of you will be defeated within the final turn. To finish things off, a set card should do." He declared. Yugi prepared to draw.
"Reverse trap!" Damien spoke out. "Nightmare Exchange!" he announced as glowing black chains sprung from the card, wrapping around Black Magician's wrists and ankles. They dragged him to the field.
"What is this?!" Yugi questioned in astonishment.
"This trap I've activated draws your deck master to the field. For a little price, you can swap deck masters." He activated.
Yugi contemplated about this. Black Magician was his key card, past and present. It could do him good to put it in his deck. But, there was a price. Would I cost him almost all his life points? Would it destroy some of his cards? He didn't want to, badly not to, but it was the Black Magician.
"I'll return Black Magician, and then summon Kuriboh as my new deck master!" he announced as the furball appeared next to Yugi and the mage disappeared and reappeared in Yugi's deck, where the deck shuffled itself.
Yugi drew Black Magician. (I don't want to sacrifice my Black Luster Soldier or my Death Volstargaf, so I can only hope I can summon a monster that will stick around until next turn) he thought. "I'll summon Dark Blade (1800/1400) in attack mode! Dark Blade and Black Magician Girl Valkyria, destroy his defenses!" he commanded as the warrior smashed through M- Warrior. Black Magician Girl Valkyria unleashed her pink magic attack at the Ojama monster, but in mid-air the attack crumbled.
"What happened?!" Yugi asked.
"Easy!" replied Damien. "When you destroyed my M-Warrior 3, you activated its special ability! It can immediately end your battle phase! However, now
none of your monsters can attack me if they have an attack power higher
than 1000!" he snickered.
"So my life points are safe once more!"
Kaiba growled at Yugi for making such a foolish mistake. (19)
Kevin drew. (Still not the card I need!) he thought. (Wait! This can work.) he grinned. "I move my deck master, the Red Eyes Black Dragon, to the playing field!" he announced as his monster flew onto the field. "Now I activate Polymerization! Fuse Meteor Dragon and Red Eyes Black Dragon into one of the strongest dragons in Duel Monsters! Rise up, Meteor Black Dragon (3500/2000)!" he announced as the two dragons fused into a deadly purple dragon with flaming red and orange stripes all along his body.
"Luckily for you, I can't attack this turn. So, I'll set one card face down to end my move." He stated. (Cyber Tech Alligator: 0/1600) (18)
Kaiba drew. "I summon the mighty Battle Ox (1700/1000) to the field in attack mode!" he announced as the ax-wielding warrior materialized on the field. "Then I'll activate the magic card, Mountain!" he announced as a holographic mountainous terrain sprung from the field card. This card powers up all dragon, thunder, winged beast monsters by 200 points, so Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon is at 4700!"
(Now all someone needs to do is draw Polymerization, and Yugi and I can summon a monster that can defeat this pathetic duelist in the next turn its summoned.) he thought. (17)
Joey drew. "Go! Baby Dragon (1200/700) in defense mode!" he announced as the mini dragon shielded himself in its wings. "Then I'm switchin' Little Winguard to defense mode too, that will end my turn." He declared as his warrior guarded himself with his sword. (Next turn I'll summon Insect Queen.) he thought. (16)
Damien drew. (Yes!) he thought. "Now I summon Ojama Black (0/1000) in defense mode as well. Then I'll activate the magic card, Legendary Sea of Atlantis!" he announced as a tidal wave and a palace burst from the card, enshrouding the field in water and blowing away Kaiba's mountains.
"Then I can special summon Sea King Dragon (2000/2500 +200) to the field!" he declared as a wave of water burst upward, revealing a sky blue dragon who dove into the water. The dragon then rose up and fired a navy blue blast of hydroelectric energy at Cyber Tech Alligator, instantaneously removing him from the field, along with Plasma Eel.
"Oh yes, my Sea King Dragon instantly destroys the weakest monster on your side of the field, but that's the least of your worries." He snickered. "Then I'll set a final card face down, before invoking Life Restoration to heal my life points by 2000!" he declared (D's LP: 5550) (15)
Yugi drew. "Now Death Volstargaf (4400) attack and destroy Ojama Black!" commanded Yugi while the demon unearthed its almighty metallic blue blast at the Ojama monster.
"This is the worst time to attack Yugi!" called Damien. "Reverse trap, Sonic Destruction! This trap not only negates your attack, but it removes from play all monsters on your side of the field for three of your turns. In other words, until Joey ends his turn you have no monsters on the field. (14)
Kevin drew. "Go, Dragon Dwelling In the Cave (1300/2000). Dragon, attack Ojama Black!" he commanded as the dragon unleashed a small green wave of energy, which destroyed the Ojama monster. (13)
Kaiba drew. (So Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon is gone for one turn) he thought eyeing his cards. "I'll remove from play my Lord of Dragons and Twilight Zone Dragon to summon this!" he announced, slapping a card onto the plate. "Chaos Emperor Dragon- Envoy of the End!" he declared as the dragon made its way onto the field. Its entrance roar was ear shattering. The dragon had dirty gold-rimmed wings expanding with blue sapphire color. The rest of its body followed the particular pattern as it made its entry with the rims of skeletal armor, right to the fully covered head trailing a fiery mane of red color. (3000/2500)
"Go Chaos Emperor Dragon, wipe out Ojama Yellow!" Kaiba instructed as the dragon launched a blazing destructive red fireball, obliterating the monster and created a brief smoke screen.
"I'll set one card face down to finish my turn." (12)
Joey drew. (No! I have no monster cards in my hand!) he thought while he ended his turn. Then 4 portals appeared and everyone's monster flew up from the portals back into their respective positions, while Damien drew. (11)
(Perfect!) "Now I can special summon Amphibian Egg (250/200) in defense mode, who automatically is hatched into the more powerful, mighty Amphibian Beast (2400/2000+200) in attack mode! Next, I'll activate Axe of Despair to raise my mighty creature's attack power by 1000!" he explained as his beast grabbed the red ax, increasing its strength (3400/2000 +200)
"Afterwards, I'll activate the magic card, Shooting Star Bow- Ceal!" he announced as a bow and arrow appeared in Amphibian Beast's claws. "Though it lowers Amphibian Beast's attack power by 1000, I can attack your life points directly!" he enlightened as the monster drew back the arrow, which became surrounded in a blue aura.
"Amphibian Beast, attack Kevin's life points!" he commanded as the amphibian released the arrow at a massive rate, holographically striking Kevin in the chest. (K's LP: 600)
(Problem) weakly thought Kevin, recovering from the attack.
"Now I'll set three cards face down and end my move." said Damien. (10)
Yugi drew. (It's all over in 10 turns.) Yugi thought, eyeing the now half- full Final Countdown card. He then became refocused on defeating Damien. "I sacrifice Black Magician Girl Valkyria and Dark Blade in order to summon the all powerful Black Magician (2500/2100) in attack mode!" he announced as the two monsters swirled in a violet vortex that died down to reveal the purple robed mage.
"Activate trap!" Damien sprung. "Torrential Tribute!" he announced as an immense stream of holographic water sprung from the card wiping out each and every monster on the field.
"Then I'll activate this!" Kevin surprisingly burst. "Interdimensional Matter Transporter will remove my Meteor B. Dragon from play for one turn, so its not effected by your trap!" he explained as a mechanical transporter encased around the dragon, which then disappeared.
Yugi was forced to end his turn. (9)
Kevin drew. "Return, Meteor B. Dragon!" he instructed as the transporter returned to the field, along with Kevin's powerful dragon. "Go Meteor Black Dragon, incinerate his life points!" he commanded as the dragon unleashed a blast of sun-fueled fire, reducing Damien's life points catastrophically. (D's LP: 2050) (8)
Kaiba drew. "I summon Flaming Dragon (1500/1200) in attack mode! Attack his life points at once my dragon!" instructed Kaiba as the behemoth sent a blast of massive wind at Damien, which lit on fire in mid-air.
"Reverse second trap, Ojama Trio! This summons three Ojama tokens (0/1000) to defend me from your attack!" Damien explained while the devastating power of the fire blast destroyed one of Damien's defending tokens. (7) (D's LP: 1850)
Joey drew. "I'll go ahead and set one card face down and then I'll summon Hayabusa Knight (1000/700) in attack mode to finish my turn." He declared. (6)
Damien drew. (Ah-ha!) he thought, slapping it down. "Bribery allows me to draw 4 new cards for 1000 of my life points! However, another special effect is I gain 800 life points for each card I draw!" he gladly clarified as he snatched 4 cards from his deck. (D's LP: 4050)
"Then I'll activate this magic card! Ojama Pact!" he announced as the two tokens disappeared and Ojama Black and Ojama Yellow (0/1000) appeared on the field. (D's LP: 3450)
"Then I'll summon Executioner Makyura (1600/1200) in attack mode! I'll set one card face down, and then have Makyura attack Hayabusa Knight!" he instructed as the monster lept at the knight, ready to claw him into shreds.
"Reveal trap card! Shift!" he announced as the executioner was repositioned to attack the Meteor B. Dragon. The dragon easily warded off the attack, and then responded with a massive fire blast, incinerating the warrior. (D's LP: 150)
Damien laughed. "Did you honestly believe I didn't know you had a trap waiting for me? Now, you've activated Makyura's special ability! I can play this trap card from my hand, the card known as Rope of Life! This card not only revives my Executioner Makyura, but it gives him 800 extra attack points! (2400/1200)
"However, the fun won't stop there! Reverse equip magic card, Execution Upgrade! This magic card equips to my Executioner Makyura!" Damien explained as Makyura received a new set of diamond hard steel, off black claws fueled with electricity.
"Executioner Makyura, attack and destroy Meteor B. Dragon!" commanded Damien as the warrior glided over to the monster and stuck all 6 claws of its inside the dragon's chest. The claws unleashed a raging force of electricity, destroying the dragon. (K's LP: 200)
"WHAT?! How did that happen?!" exclaimed Kevin, seeing his strongest monster vanquished easily.
"Makyura gains 1500 attack points whenever it attacks a monster. So, do the math and that equals 3900, too hot for your dragon to handle! So, to finish things off, I'll end my turn." (5)
Yugi drew. (This card doesn't help at all.) he thought. "I'll summon one monster in defense mode and that will end my turn." (4)
Kevin drew. (MAN! That dragon was going to be my best bet. Hold on I think I found something even better.) he thought, seeing his luck.
"Activate, Dragon Slaying Pact! For the price of 1 dragon type monster from my hand, I can summon Buster Blader (2600/2300) to the field in defense mode. However, next turn I'll destroy you!" he threatened, placing a card face down before completing his move. (3)
Yugi nervously watched a seventeenth flame fill up on the Final Countdown magic card ring. Kaiba drew in the meantime. (Perfect. Now I'll summon a beast he won't stop!) he thought. (Wait!) he remembered. (Why wasn't Kevin eliminated when Meteor B. Dragon was destroyed?)
FLASHBACK:
Meteor B. Dragon being destroyed
END FLASHBACK
(Hold on! I remember now)
**FLASHBACK
Damien states other deck masters can only destroy deck masters. Should a regular monster, magic, or trap card destroy a deck master it is "invalid."
"I summon Messenger of the White Dragon (1800/1500) in attack mode! Next, I'll activate this handy little spell, White Dragon's Arrival! It allows me to place a Blue Eyes White Dragon from my graveyard into my hand. Now stand back! For now I can sacrifice the Messenger of the White Dragon to summon my Blue Eyes White Dragon (3000/2500)!" he announced as a knight dressed completely in blue and white appeared on the field. A spell with the attack of a Blue Eyes picture on it also appeared, then, the knight and the magic card vanished to be replaced with one of the strongest single cards in duel monsters. The dragon roared a thunderous roar.
(But I'm no fool. I know what will happen if I attack Makyura, so I'll wait for it to attack me.) he thought. "I'll set one card face down and then end my turn." He announced. (2)
All eyes were on Joey. If he couldn't do something about the Final Countdown, they were going to lose after everything they sought after. Tea, Mai, and not to mention themselves lost or worse.
(We're doomed.) Kaiba thought. (Come on Joey!) Kevin thought. (You can do this! You are a true duelist!) Yugi thought.
Joey slowly drew. (Bang baby!) he thought. "Activate Giant Trunade! This card returns all magic and traps back to our hands, so you won't be winning this duel!" he snickered. Damien softly growled.
"Then I sacrifice Hayabusa Knight to summon Lieutenant General (2300/1000)!" he announced as his tall black warrior made an remarkable appearance on the field.
"However, I'm playin' him in defense mode. But, before I end my turn, he lets me take back a warrior card from my graveyard, so I summon back a monster you made me discard, D.D. Warrior Lady (1400/1500) in defense mode. Then I'll set this last card face down to end my turn." He declared, smiling.
Damien drew. (I was so close to winning.) "I activate the magic card, Black Scale! It forces all of you to discard half of your hands, then I am able to draw that many cards!" he explained while Yugi discarded 2, Kevin- 2, Kaiba- 3, and Joey- 3. Damien then drew 10 cards from his deck. Yugi noticed his deck was running a little thin.
"Now with a whole new hand comes a whole new point of view. And my first move will knock one of you out! For now I destroy Kevin by activating a magic card to seal his fate! Activate, Flip Side!" he happily declared as all monsters of Kaiba's, Yugi's, Kevin's, and Joey's monsters cards flipped over into facedown position.
"No!" everyone thought.
"But then the fun continues with Surprise Extermination! This card destroys all face down monsters on the field!" he snickered as all cards caught on fire, disintegrating then and there.
"Then to take care of all your face down cards, Anti-Magic Arrows!" he declared as rows of yellow energy boosted arrows pinned all of Kaiba's, Yugi's, Kevin's, and Joey's face down magic or trap cards.
"Now there's nothing you have to defend against this! That's one more "friend" gone! Executioner Makyura prepare to attack Kevin and blow away the rest of his life points!" he instructed as the monster's claws created a ball of electricity, which flew at Kevin, holographically electrocuting him. Ow! (just had to add that) (K's LP: 0)
"Ha! You lose!" Damien chuckled, snapping his fingers. Kevin disappeared in the same fashion as Mai and Tea.
"Well, whose next up to be eliminated? It doesn't matter, soon you'll all be gone!!" Damien laughed, which echoed through the playing field.

Chapter 21: The Black Gate Test, Part V: Your Strongest Weapons
(This duel has been easier and easier. No real threats have posed me. Plus, thanks to my deck master special ability I can recharge my life points every turn.) Damien thought, ending his turn.
Yugi drew. (Just the card I needed!) he thought. "I activate Black Luster Ritual!" announced Yugi as two pots and a square with two swords crossing materialized behind Yugi's monsters. "By sacrificing my Beta the Magnet Warrior and Gamma the Magnet Warrior, I am able to call one of the most powerful warriors in all of duel monsters!" he burst while his two magnet warriors entered separate pots. The pots then shot vortexes of blue and purple energy into the sky. The square sprung straight and a yellow organism shot from it. The yellow covering dispersed, revealing the Black Luster Soldier (3000/2500).
"Now Black Luster Soldier, attack Darkbishop Archfiend!" commanded Yugi as the monster slashed the ground sending a shockwave of energy at the archfiend monster. The energy hit the monster and disintegrated him.
"Go Death Volstargaf (3800/1700) attack and wipe out his life points!" commanded Yugi as the monster launched a metallic blue blast heading at a rapid pace towards Damien.
"Reverse trap, Negate Attack." Damien plainly said while a magic vortex appeared and absorbed the attack. (I'm running out of traps) he thought.
(Why did he do that? He could have negated my Black Luster Soldier's attack and saved a monster) he thought.
"Now I reveal my last set card, Reverse! Back to me again!" Damien interrupted while drawing. "Now I summon Tsuchi (200/1200) in attack mode. Next, I'll activate my monster's special ability! I can sacrifice it to draw 6 cards from my deck when I have none." He explained while his monster disappeared into the abyss, and Damien drew 6 new cards.
(Great) thought Joey.
"Finally I can fulfill the promise I had to destroy Kevin. For you see, my monster was special summoned, and when its destroyed I can special summon another monster from my hand. So I summon X Head Cannon (1800/1500) in attack mode! Then, I'll summon Z Metal Tank (1500/1300)! But wait! I can sacrifice these 2 monsters in order to summon the XZ- Tank Cannon (2400/2100)!" he exclaimed as his two monsters appeared on the field then fused into one.
"Thanks to my Tank Cannon's special ability, I can discard two cards from my hand to destroy two face down cards. So, say goodbye to your two face down cards Kevin!" proclaimed Damien as two missiles came from the tank cannon, impaling both face down cards.
(No...) thought Kevin.
"Now go XZ-Tank Cannon, attack and destroy Panther Warrior!" commanded Damien while the monster launched a missile, which impaled and destroyed the panther. (J's LP: 2600)
"I'll set these two cards face down to end my move." Damien added.
Yugi drew. (Why didn't he use his deck master special ability?) pondered Yugi. (Oh well. Let's not give him time to. I've got a Fusion card in my hand. Should I fuse Black Luster Soldier with Kaiba's Ultimate Dragon? I'll hold on to it until my next turn.) he thought. "Go Black Magician Girl Valkyria (1600/1200) in attack mode! Go now Death Volstargaf, attack the XZ Tank Cannon!" commanded Yugi as the monster unleashed another metallic blue blast, annihilating the cannon monster. (D's LP: 1950)
"Activate trap!" Damien sprung. "Intercepting Units! See, when you have a monster that could wipe out my life points and I have no monster on the field, my trap summons 5 Defender Walls (0/2000) to the field in defense mode!" he announced as five black shields lined up, protecting Damien.
"Well I can tear one down! Black Luster Soldier, attack a Defender Wall!" commanded Yugi once more as the soldier smashed the ground, and disintegrated one of the shields. Yugi then was shocked to see his life points lower (Y's LP: 3400)
"Oh I forgot to mention, whenever one of my defending tokens is destroyed, the controller of the attacking monster loses 500 life points." Damien sarcastically acted.
Kevin drew. (I'm the only person with that Plasma Eel still on my monster.) he thought, drawing one of his favorites, not to mention best cards, Buster Blader. He smiled. "Now Kaiser Glider, attack!" declared Kevin.
But Damien had other plans. "Reverse trap card, Power Sealing Box!" shouted Damien. A woman appeared and mentally moved Meteor Dragon in the air. "You see my trap lets me selected one monster on the field. Then, until my next turn, a monster with an attack higher than Meteor Dragon's can't attack. So my life points are safe!" he proclaimed. (Cyber Tech Alligator: 500/1600)
Kaiba drew. "I pass." He muttered.
Joey drew. "Well you're life points are close to safe! But I still have this card in my deck, Little Winguard (1400/1800)!"
(He's becoming a menace.) thought Damien while he drew. (Heh heh. Just the card I want!) "Now I summon M-Warrior #3 (800/800) who lets me automatically summon a monster from my hand with less than 1000 attack points! So, meet Ojama Yellow (0/1000) in defense mode!" he exclaimed as a yellow creature came onto the field. It jiggled. "Then to make your matters even worse, I'll activate the healing magic of Pure People's Reward, another card created by yours truly, raising my life points by 5000 since I have less than 1500 life points (D's LP: 5550)
"Finally, I can seal your fate! Engage Final Countdown!" he called as a ring with 20 spaces to be filled hovered above the playing field. White energy came from Damien, moving to the center of the ring. One piece of energy flew into an opening on the ring, immediately filling it with fire.
"You see, for the mere price of 2000 life points (D's LP: 3550), every time anyone's turn begins, my ring will light up another space until each and all 20 are full. Then, comes a surprise. Let's put it this way, you don't want them to get to 20. I do. And if you fail in defeating my ring, well, all 4 of you will be defeated within the final turn. To finish things off, a set card should do." He declared. Yugi prepared to draw.
"Reverse trap!" Damien spoke out. "Nightmare Exchange!" he announced as glowing black chains sprung from the card, wrapping around Black Magician's wrists and ankles. They dragged him to the field.
"What is this?!" Yugi questioned in astonishment.
"This trap I've activated draws your deck master to the field. For a little price, you can swap deck masters." He activated.
Yugi contemplated about this. Black Magician was his key card, past and present. It could do him good to put it in his deck. But, there was a price. Would I cost him almost all his life points? Would it destroy some of his cards? He didn't want to, badly not to, but it was the Black Magician.
"I'll return Black Magician, and then summon Kuriboh as my new deck master!" he announced as the furball appeared next to Yugi and the mage disappeared and reappeared in Yugi's deck, where the deck shuffled itself.
Yugi drew Black Magician. (I don't want to sacrifice my Black Luster Soldier or my Death Volstargaf, so I can only hope I can summon a monster that will stick around until next turn) he thought. "I'll summon Dark Blade (1800/1400) in attack mode! Dark Blade and Black Magician Girl Valkyria, destroy his defenses!" he commanded as the warrior smashed through M- Warrior. Black Magician Girl Valkyria unleashed her pink magic attack at the Ojama monster, but in mid-air the attack crumbled.
"What happened?!" Yugi asked.
"Easy!" replied Damien. "When you destroyed my M-Warrior 3, you activated its special ability! It can immediately end your battle phase! However, now
none of your monsters can attack me if they have an attack power higher
than 1000!" he snickered.
"So my life points are safe once more!"
Kaiba growled at Yugi for making such a foolish mistake. (19)
Kevin drew. (Still not the card I need!) he thought. (Wait! This can work.) he grinned. "I move my deck master, the Red Eyes Black Dragon, to the playing field!" he announced as his monster flew onto the field. "Now I activate Polymerization! Fuse Meteor Dragon and Red Eyes Black Dragon into one of the strongest dragons in Duel Monsters! Rise up, Meteor Black Dragon (3500/2000)!" he announced as the two dragons fused into a deadly purple dragon with flaming red and orange stripes all along his body.
"Luckily for you, I can't attack this turn. So, I'll set one card face down to end my move." He stated. (Cyber Tech Alligator: 0/1600) (18)
Kaiba drew. "I summon the mighty Battle Ox (1700/1000) to the field in attack mode!" he announced as the ax-wielding warrior materialized on the field. "Then I'll activate the magic card, Mountain!" he announced as a holographic mountainous terrain sprung from the field card. This card powers up all dragon, thunder, winged beast monsters by 200 points, so Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon is at 4700!"
(Now all someone needs to do is draw Polymerization, and Yugi and I can summon a monster that can defeat this pathetic duelist in the next turn its summoned.) he thought. (17)
Joey drew. "Go! Baby Dragon (1200/700) in defense mode!" he announced as the mini dragon shielded himself in its wings. "Then I'm switchin' Little Winguard to defense mode too, that will end my turn." He declared as his warrior guarded himself with his sword. (Next turn I'll summon Insect Queen.) he thought. (16)
Damien drew. (Yes!) he thought. "Now I summon Ojama Black (0/1000) in defense mode as well. Then I'll activate the magic card, Legendary Sea of Atlantis!" he announced as a tidal wave and a palace burst from the card, enshrouding the field in water and blowing away Kaiba's mountains.
"Then I can special summon Sea King Dragon (2000/2500 +200) to the field!" he declared as a wave of water burst upward, revealing a sky blue dragon who dove into the water. The dragon then rose up and fired a navy blue blast of hydroelectric energy at Cyber Tech Alligator, instantaneously removing him from the field, along with Plasma Eel.
"Oh yes, my Sea King Dragon instantly destroys the weakest monster on your side of the field, but that's the least of your worries." He snickered. "Then I'll set a final card face down, before invoking Life Restoration to heal my life points by 2000!" he declared (D's LP: 5550) (15)
Yugi drew. "Now Death Volstargaf (4400) attack and destroy Ojama Black!" commanded Yugi while the demon unearthed its almighty metallic blue blast at the Ojama monster.
"This is the worst time to attack Yugi!" called Damien. "Reverse trap, Sonic Destruction! This trap not only negates your attack, but it removes from play all monsters on your side of the field for three of your turns. In other words, until Joey ends his turn you have no monsters on the field. (14)
Kevin drew. "Go, Dragon Dwelling In the Cave (1300/2000). Dragon, attack Ojama Black!" he commanded as the dragon unleashed a small green wave of energy, which destroyed the Ojama monster. (13)
Kaiba drew. (So Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon is gone for one turn) he thought eyeing his cards. "I'll remove from play my Lord of Dragons and Twilight Zone Dragon to summon this!" he announced, slapping a card onto the plate. "Chaos Emperor Dragon- Envoy of the End!" he declared as the dragon made its way onto the field. Its entrance roar was ear shattering. The dragon had dirty gold-rimmed wings expanding with blue sapphire color. The rest of its body followed the particular pattern as it made its entry with the rims of skeletal armor, right to the fully covered head trailing a fiery mane of red color. (3000/2500)
"Go Chaos Emperor Dragon, wipe out Ojama Yellow!" Kaiba instructed as the dragon launched a blazing destructive red fireball, obliterating the monster and created a brief smoke screen.
"I'll set one card face down to finish my turn." (12)
Joey drew. (No! I have no monster cards in my hand!) he thought while he ended his turn. Then 4 portals appeared and everyone's monster flew up from the portals back into their respective positions, while Damien drew. (11)
(Perfect!) "Now I can special summon Amphibian Egg (250/200) in defense mode, who automatically is hatched into the more powerful, mighty Amphibian Beast (2400/2000+200) in attack mode! Next, I'll activate Axe of Despair to raise my mighty creature's attack power by 1000!" he explained as his beast grabbed the red ax, increasing its strength (3400/2000 +200)
"Afterwards, I'll activate the magic card, Shooting Star Bow- Ceal!" he announced as a bow and arrow appeared in Amphibian Beast's claws. "Though it lowers Amphibian Beast's attack power by 1000, I can attack your life points directly!" he enlightened as the monster drew back the arrow, which became surrounded in a blue aura.
"Amphibian Beast, attack Kevin's life points!" he commanded as the amphibian released the arrow at a massive rate, holographically striking Kevin in the chest. (K's LP: 600)
(Problem) weakly thought Kevin, recovering from the attack.
"Now I'll set three cards face down and end my move." said Damien. (10)
Yugi drew. (It's all over in 10 turns.) Yugi thought, eyeing the now half- full Final Countdown card. He then became refocused on defeating Damien. "I sacrifice Black Magician Girl Valkyria and Dark Blade in order to summon the all powerful Black Magician (2500/2100) in attack mode!" he announced as the two monsters swirled in a violet vortex that died down to reveal the purple robed mage.
"Activate trap!" Damien sprung. "Torrential Tribute!" he announced as an immense stream of holographic water sprung from the card wiping out each and every monster on the field.
"Then I'll activate this!" Kevin surprisingly burst. "Interdimensional Matter Transporter will remove my Meteor B. Dragon from play for one turn, so its not effected by your trap!" he explained as a mechanical transporter encased around the dragon, which then disappeared.
Yugi was forced to end his turn. (9)
Kevin drew. "Return, Meteor B. Dragon!" he instructed as the transporter returned to the field, along with Kevin's powerful dragon. "Go Meteor Black Dragon, incinerate his life points!" he commanded as the dragon unleashed a blast of sun-fueled fire, reducing Damien's life points catastrophically. (D's LP: 2050) (8)
Kaiba drew. "I summon Flaming Dragon (1500/1200) in attack mode! Attack his life points at once my dragon!" instructed Kaiba as the behemoth sent a blast of massive wind at Damien, which lit on fire in mid-air.
"Reverse second trap, Ojama Trio! This summons three Ojama tokens (0/1000) to defend me from your attack!" Damien explained while the devastating power of the fire blast destroyed one of Damien's defending tokens. (7) (D's LP: 1850)
Joey drew. "I'll go ahead and set one card face down and then I'll summon Hayabusa Knight (1000/700) in attack mode to finish my turn." He declared. (6)
Damien drew. (Ah-ha!) he thought, slapping it down. "Bribery allows me to draw 4 new cards for 1000 of my life points! However, another special effect is I gain 800 life points for each card I draw!" he gladly clarified as he snatched 4 cards from his deck. (D's LP: 4050)
"Then I'll activate this magic card! Ojama Pact!" he announced as the two tokens disappeared and Ojama Black and Ojama Yellow (0/1000) appeared on the field. (D's LP: 3450)
"Then I'll summon Executioner Makyura (1600/1200) in attack mode! I'll set one card face down, and then have Makyura attack Hayabusa Knight!" he instructed as the monster lept at the knight, ready to claw him into shreds.
"Reveal trap card! Shift!" he announced as the executioner was repositioned to attack the Meteor B. Dragon. The dragon easily warded off the attack, and then responded with a massive fire blast, incinerating the warrior. (D's LP: 150)
Damien laughed. "Did you honestly believe I didn't know you had a trap waiting for me? Now, you've activated Makyura's special ability! I can play this trap card from my hand, the card known as Rope of Life! This card not only revives my Executioner Makyura, but it gives him 800 extra attack points! (2400/1200)
"However, the fun won't stop there! Reverse equip magic card, Execution Upgrade! This magic card equips to my Executioner Makyura!" Damien explained as Makyura received a new set of diamond hard steel, off black claws fueled with electricity.
"Executioner Makyura, attack and destroy Meteor B. Dragon!" commanded Damien as the warrior glided over to the monster and stuck all 6 claws of its inside the dragon's chest. The claws unleashed a raging force of electricity, destroying the dragon. (K's LP: 200)
"WHAT?! How did that happen?!" exclaimed Kevin, seeing his strongest monster vanquished easily.
"Makyura gains 1500 attack points whenever it attacks a monster. So, do the math and that equals 3900, too hot for your dragon to handle! So, to finish things off, I'll end my turn." (5)
Yugi drew. (This card doesn't help at all.) he thought. "I'll summon one monster in defense mode and that will end my turn." (4)
Kevin drew. (MAN! That dragon was going to be my best bet. Hold on I think I found something even better.) he thought, seeing his luck.
"Activate, Dragon Slaying Pact! For the price of 1 dragon type monster from my hand, I can summon Buster Blader (2600/2300) to the field in defense mode. However, next turn I'll destroy you!" he threatened, placing a card face down before completing his move. (3)
Yugi nervously watched a seventeenth flame fill up on the Final Countdown magic card ring. Kaiba drew in the meantime. (Perfect. Now I'll summon a beast he won't stop!) he thought. (Wait!) he remembered. (Why wasn't Kevin eliminated when Meteor B. Dragon was destroyed?)
FLASHBACK:
Meteor B. Dragon being destroyed
END FLASHBACK
(Hold on! I remember now)
**FLASHBACK
Damien states other deck masters can only destroy deck masters. Should a regular monster, magic, or trap card destroy a deck master it is "invalid."
"I summon Messenger of the White Dragon (1800/1500) in attack mode! Next, I'll activate this handy little spell, White Dragon's Arrival! It allows me to place a Blue Eyes White Dragon from my graveyard into my hand. Now stand back! For now I can sacrifice the Messenger of the White Dragon to summon my Blue Eyes White Dragon (3000/2500)!" he announced as a knight dressed completely in blue and white appeared on the field. A spell with the attack of a Blue Eyes picture on it also appeared, then, the knight and the magic card vanished to be replaced with one of the strongest single cards in duel monsters. The dragon roared a thunderous roar.
(But I'm no fool. I know what will happen if I attack Makyura, so I'll wait for it to attack me.) he thought. "I'll set one card face down and then end my turn." He announced. (2)
All eyes were on Joey. If he couldn't do something about the Final Countdown, they were going to lose after everything they sought after. Tea, Mai, and not to mention themselves lost or worse.
(We're doomed.) Kaiba thought. (Come on Joey!) Kevin thought. (You can do this! You are a true duelist!) Yugi thought.
Joey slowly drew. (Bang baby!) he thought. "Activate Giant Trunade! This card returns all magic and traps back to our hands, so you won't be winning this duel!" he snickered. Damien softly growled.
"Then I sacrifice Hayabusa Knight to summon Lieutenant General (2300/1000)!" he announced as his tall black warrior made an remarkable appearance on the field.
"However, I'm playin' him in defense mode. But, before I end my turn, he lets me take back a warrior card from my graveyard, so I summon back a monster you made me discard, D.D. Warrior Lady (1400/1500) in defense mode. Then I'll set this last card face down to end my turn." He declared, smiling.
Damien drew. (I was so close to winning.) "I activate the magic card, Black Scale! It forces all of you to discard half of your hands, then I am able to draw that many cards!" he explained while Yugi discarded 2, Kevin- 2, Kaiba- 3, and Joey- 3. Damien then drew 10 cards from his deck. Yugi noticed his deck was running a little thin.
"Now with a whole new hand comes a whole new point of view. And my first move will knock one of you out! For now I destroy Kevin by activating a magic card to seal his fate! Activate, Flip Side!" he happily declared as all monsters of Kaiba's, Yugi's, Kevin's, and Joey's monsters cards flipped over into facedown position.
"No!" everyone thought.
"But then the fun continues with Surprise Extermination! This card destroys all face down monsters on the field!" he snickered as all cards caught on fire, disintegrating then and there.
"Then to take care of all your face down cards, Anti-Magic Arrows!" he declared as rows of yellow energy boosted arrows pinned all of Kaiba's, Yugi's, Kevin's, and Joey's face down magic or trap cards.
"Now there's nothing you have to defend against this! That's one more "friend" gone! Executioner Makyura prepare to attack Kevin and blow away the rest of his life points!" he instructed as the monster's claws created a ball of electricity, which flew at Kevin, holographically electrocuting him. Ow! (just had to add that) (K's LP: 0)
"Ha! You lose!" Damien chuckled, snapping his fingers. Kevin disappeared in the same fashion as Mai and Tea.
"Well, whose next up to be eliminated? It doesn't matter, soon you'll all be gone!!" Damien laughed, which echoed through the playing field.
