A Bloody Path
S. Hawk: Sorry it took so long. I didn't have internet for a while there. Anyways, chapter 10 is finished!
Chaos: Whoo! I can't wait to see more of the tournament. I have an idea! (changes into Japanese school uniform) Just call me Julia in this disguise.
Y. Hawk: Anyone want to explain this to me?
Sango: Not really. Just read the story to find out.
Reviewers: Hello everyone and welcome back to the Anarchy tournament. I'm going to introduce a few old duelist along with a few new ones. I also added some unusual twists to some of the duelist. I hope no one is really offended by them.
Luna Princess of the Shadows: I'm glad you like that twist in the new duel system. All I have to say is Kaiba likes to duel big: The more at stake, the better! It's cool that your friend would like the game. It makes a person extremely careful about losing the duel.
Nina: Thanks.
Anayas-Creater: As Kaiba says, "Go big or go home!" With this new duel disk, it definitely went big.
Surfnsport: I'm glad you liked that part. It was an idea that sounds funny when someone did it in real life. The code Blue Eyes was something I thought Kaiba would have.
Shinan: Thanks.
Invisible girl: I'm updating now.
SetoxSerenity: Thanks and I will.
Kiwigrl89: Thanks.
Bishounen Lover: Sorry for the wait but I think this chapter will have some more lemon and a lot of people getting hurt.
Kaibaslillgal92: This story has some lemon in it but nothing too extreme.
Svakee2000: Thanks.
Dragon's-Maidens: Thanks for the info. Tea is eliminated from the tournament. She won't be around as much until the finals. As for the jail and hospital, a lot of the characters are being sent to both. The story is called A Bloody Path for a reason. If I didn't include a lot of hospital visits, then the title wouldn't really make that much sense. Besides, it kind of fun to sent characters to the hospital since they bounce right back. As for the suicidal, I need a dramatic filler while I plan out the tournament. Seto did put his life on the line a few times in the show so I didn't think anything of it.
Chapter 10: The mysterious girl duelist
Outside of Kaiba Corp Tower
Serenity has beaten Tea and gained an early lead in the tournament. Kaiba wasn't so happy by this turn of event. He was kind of curious where Ren got some of those cards but he was too busy to worry about that. With their duel, they signaled the start of his tournament. He decided to earn more points by eliminating the competition near the school. Kaiba grabbed Serenity while she collected the rare card from Tea. The card was Guardian Angel Joan. Kaiba threw Serenity into his limo.
"We don't have time to play around here while those deadbeats are earning more points than me. We're heading to the OOF!"
Serenity decided that she didn't like being man-handled by Kaiba. She showed her discomfort by kicking him in his favorite spot. After Kaiba dropped to his knees, Serenity threw her sneaker at his head. While he was distracted, she pulled him in and told the driver to floor it.
"Why the hell did you do that you psycho woman!"
"I thought that I should give you a reason to treat me well… and I thought we needed some alone time for ourselves."
With the previous statement, Serenity leaned in a gave Kaiba a sweet kiss on the lips. He returned the kiss and they were like that for several minutes until the overhead speaker broke their moment.
"Sir, where are we going?"
"We are heading to the school! Now, stop asking stupid questions and just drive us there!"
The driver was too scared to say anything so he turned off the speaker and headed towards the school. What Kaiba doesn't know is that some duels are already taking place at the school already.
Domino City High School
The crying of many children could be hear throughout the hallway. A young duelist named Tony was beating several 5 year-olds at Duel Monsters. He is about 11 years-old so the duel were definitely one-sided. The sad thing is that Tony is mocking the kids after beating them. He was acting like he could beat anyone.
"Gee, beating 5 year-olds… how great you are. What's next? Stealing bottles of milk from infants? Why don't you try being a man and duel me?"
"Wh-wh-wh-who are you?"
"Lowlifes like you can call me Julia. Like the outfit? It's a traditional Japanese school uniform."
"I want one!"
"This is a traditional Japanese girl's school uniform. It would be creepy for an out-of-shape boy like you to wear. Anyways, put up all your points and let's duel!"
"I have 2000 points! I doubt you had that much!"
"So, you beat up three 5 year-olds and took all there points…big deal. I have 3000 pts already. Unlike you, I dueled five real duelist for my points. 2000 pts huh? I find that acceptable! Let's duel!"
"Ummm…nope!"
Tony ran away from Julia only to be trapped in a chemistry lab by Julia. Julia blocked the doorway and re-challenged Tony. Tony had no choice but to accept the challenge. "How about 1500 pts? Good!"
Julia vs. Tony
Both duelist loaded their decks and 4000 LP appeared above each of them. Tony went first and drew a card after they both drew five cards. With a twinkle in his eye, he played the magic card "Thief Goblin" (1). This magic card steals 500 LP from Julia and gives it to Tony. Not only the LP but her shoe as well. The score: Julia 3500 Tony 4500. Tony then summoned "Amazoness Paladin" (1700/1300). Julia took a breath and drew a card. She frowned for a moment then burst out laughing. She played one card face-down. She summoned "Cinderella" (300/250) to the field. The special effect of this card lets Julia summon "Horse Carriage of Pumpkin" (100/800) in defense mode. The special effect of "Horse Carriage of Pumpkin" allows "Cinderella" to direct attack Tony. With a flick of Julia's wrist, Cinderella attacked Tony directly. Tony lost 300 LP and his sleeves. The score reads: Julia 3500 Tony 4200.
Tony recovered, drew a card and sacrificed his Paladin for "Summoned Skull" (2500/1200). Unfortunately for him, the trap card "Gravity Bind" activated from Julia's side. All his strong monster couldn't attack! He passed his turn without attacking. Julia drew a card. She played the magic card "Glass Slippers". The card lowers the attack power of an opponent's monster by 1000 pts. Julia chose Summoned Skull. The attack power of Summoned Skull is lowered to 1500. Julia played the magic card "Dian Keto the Cure Master". It increased Julia's LP by 1000 pts. She direct attacked Tony again. The score is now: Julia 4500 Tony 3900. Tony lost his coat after that attack. Tony, being the spastic person that he is, fell backwards when he was attacked. What Julia and Tony didn't realize is that Tony turned a gas valve that was behind him. Tony picked himself up and drew his next card. The card is "Pot of Greed". He activated it and drew two more cards. He played one card in defense mode and two cards face-down. Julia drew her card.
"Hey chump! Why don't you give up now? It would save you the embarrassment of losing all your clothes!"
"I-I-I-I don't want to! I can beat you anyways!"
"Sure you can…"
Julia placed one card face down and attacked with Cinderella. Tony activated "Mirror Force" and tried to destroy Julia's Cinderella but she activated "Remove Trap" to negate the trap's effects. Tony was able to save himself with "Negate Attack" so he didn't lose any LP. The scored is still: Julia 4500 Tony 3900.
Tony looked at the card and broke out into a huge smile. He sacrificed the two monsters on the field to summon "Dark Magician" (2500/2100). He obviously forgot about the "Gravity Bind that is still on the field.
"Drat! I still can't attack!"
Okay, he just remembered that little fact so he had to end his turn. Unfortunately for him, "Glass Slippers" goes to Cinderella when the previous monster that was wearing it goes to the graveyard (Summoned Skull). The slippers increased Cinderella attack by 1000 pts. Julia drew her card and removed "Dark Magician" with the magic card "Fissure". She then summoned "Chu-Ske The Mouse Fighter" (1200/0). With both monsters she dealt 2500 damage to Tony's LP. The score is now: Julia 4500 Tony 1400. The fierce attack was able to destroy all Tony's clothing except for his pants and what's underneath. Tony needed a miracle to beat Julia and he drew… "Mystical Space Typhoon". Talk about lucky draw! Without "Gravity Bind", Tony's stronger monsters can attack now. He summoned "Celtic Guardian" (1400/1200). He attacked Cinderella and Julia lost 100 LP… and her other shoe.
"You are so going to regret destroying my new shoes!"
Julia's eyes now burn with a intensity that could have burnt down the lab. She drew her final trump card. Julia drew her "Guardian Angel Joan" (2800/2000). She sacrifice two monsters and summoned her angel to the field. With a blaze of pure holy light, Tony lost all his life points… and the rest of his clothing.
"Ewww! Give me your rare card and put some clothes on! Nobody needs to see that now. Don't give me that cheap imitation of the Blue Eyes White Dragon! I want your authentic Dark Magician Girl!"
"N-N-N-No! I rather die than give that up!" Unfortunately, Tony scraped his duel disk against the metal counter and sparks flew into the room. Since the gas has been on from his last fall, the explosion was great enough to blow Tony away. Julia was knocked back…along with Tony's duel disk. Julia blinked a few times, shrugged, took her recently won Dark Magician Girl, and left the burning room.
Outside the school
Kaiba and Serenity were busy beating the pants of several duelist when an explosion was seen coming from the building. Fearing that the burning debris would ruin his hair, Kaiba grabbed Serenity, threw her in the limo, and went back to the city to find more duelist.
Lake near the School
Tony flew through the air and eventually landed in the lake. The only person around to see Tony's flight is the purple-eyed tomb robber, Bakura. He has been ambushing duelist around those parts and placing their souls in inanimate objects when they lost. Tony was severely burnt and dying. Bakura took pity on Tony… yeah right. Bakura just thought it would be funny.
What Bakura did to "save" Tony was place his soul into a feeder fish that was in the lake. "OOOH, you wish you were a fish. E-I-E-I-O! And, now you are a fish. Hee-haha-ho! You wanted to be a Koi, you wish! Instead, I turned you into a feeder fish!"
Bakura is a little… off at the moment. However, he did place the fish into a roller skate that he found. Now, Tony, as a fish, can continue his journey as duelist….
Somewhere on the freeway
Kaiba was startled when a loud thud was heard on top of his limo. Kaiba opened his sunroof and looked to see what is on his limo. It was Joey. "What the hell are you doing? Get your muddy shoes off my nice clean limo! Let me help you…. Serenity! Give me back my shotgun! I need to get rid of some homeless deadbeat that is messing up my limo! Yes, Joey is a deadbeat! Don't argue with me Ren! FINE! Mutt! What are you doing on my limo?"
"Ah challenge ya to a duel moneybags! Ah put 4000 pts on the duel!"
"Fine! I can get rid of you from my tournament and win some more points! Wait! The computer says you have 4100 pts! You're keeping 100 pts in case you lose to me? Wuss!"
Kaiba vs. Joey… again
Joey started this duel with "Alligator's Sword" (1500/1200). Joey end his turn. Kaiba looked at Joey and said, "Duck". Joey was confused until both he and his monster got hit by the low bridge. Kaiba shrug his shoulders and declared that he won by default.
"Oh naw ya don't rich boy! I'm still here… just help me up."
Unfortunately, Kaiba didn't feel like being nice (as usual) and the low bridge lessened Alligator's Sword down to 1000/700. Kaiba drew a card and summoned "Versago the Destroyer" (1100/900). Kaiba placed two cards faced down and attacked with Versago. Joey lost 100 LP and his shoe. Joey dragged himself back on the limo and drew a card. He summoned "Blue Flame Swordsman" (1800/1600). Joey also placed one card face down. He attacked Versago but "Negate Attack" stop it. Kaiba had enough of dueling Joey so he use Versago special ability to special summon any fusion-material monster so Kaiba summoned Blue Eyes White Dragon to the field. With his face down polymerization card, he summoned "Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon" (4500/3800). He regular summoned "Blade Knight" (1600/1100). Since Kaiba only had one card in his hand, Blade Knight attack went up to 2000. He destroy the swordsman and now Joey is defenseless. "Mutt, are you even trying to win?"
With a huge blast, Seto wins the duel and he removed Joey from his limo. Kaiba sat back down into his limo and he heads to his next duel.
(1). I'm not sure what this card is called in the real card game but I think this is its translation. The problem with using a Japanese card listing: the English translations may be different from its Japanese version.
