Chapter 12 The Dark Side of the Light, Part 2
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Azurada screamed and all of a sudden he was surrounded by a black swirling aura. His rage had taken over, and it looks like it wasn't plaaning on leaving soon.
Azurada had lost complete Control.
"Let's make this duel a Shadow Game!"
Raising his Millennium Sword, the Shadow game had begun (DuelDiscs activated, LP set, etc.)
DUEL BEGIN!
ZOMPIRE VS AZURADA'S RAGE!
"Yes... this is what I want!" screamed Zompire Geek in glee. "Dueling people at their peak! And what better to do so than to fully release the opponent's rage! For my first Manuever, I Start by summoning Mystic Clown in attack mode (1500)! I'll place one card facedown and end my turn."
Azurada draws. "I SUMMON DARK BLADE IN ATTACK MODE! (1800) ATTACK HIS MYSTIC CLOWN WITH TWIN SCIMITARS!"
Dark Blade roars a battlecry and leaps to attack. But the Zompire fan was prepared "I activate the trap card: Compulsory Evacutaion Device! It shall return your monster to your hand!"
"...Bastard. I will place 2 cards facedown. MOve, you insignificant little worm!" Azurada said in sheer rage.
Justin thought, Oh no, this isn't like Azurada at all. Those visions Zompire made him see, they must have been very painful to watch...
Zompire grinned as he drew his next card. "I sacrifice Mystic Clown to summon Patrician of Darkness (2000)! Attack Azurada directly!"
The Patrician of Darkness socked Azurada in the gut. (A: 2000)
Zompire continues. "I'll finish my placing a card facedown."
Obviously he will strike back with an even more pwerful force. I have a Trap Hole waiting for him... thought the costumed evil.
"MY MOVE! I summon Pitch-Dark Dragon! (900)"
Zompire gulped, thinking What! No! His dragon is too weak to fall into the Trap Hole!
"Now i use My Polymerization! Pitch-Dark Dragon and Dark Blade fuse to become... Dark Blade the Dragon Knight! (2200/1500) Attack his Patrician of Darkness with Twin Dragon Swords!"
Patrician of DarknessRoars in pain and disappears into tiny fragments.
Aaah, I see, thought Zompire Geek. Even in rage, he can handle some strategy.
"My turn! And I summon Goblin Attack Force! (2300) plus, the Magic Card Axe of Despair will JAck up my goblin's power my 1000! (3300) Now Attack his Dark Blade the Dragon Knight!"
"I Activate my two facedown cards!" screamed Azurada. "First my Rush Recklessly will power-up my monster by 700 Points! (2200 goes to 2900) And my Curse of Aging Trap Card will make your goblins old, weakening them by 500 ATK and DEF points (3300 to 2800)."
The goblins, afflicted by the Curse of Aging, all scream in pain as they are vanquished.
(Zompire: LP 3900)
Yugi couldn't bear to look at Azurada duel, so he looks down. "How can he be so ruthless in such rage! in the Shadow Rrealm when dueling, the monsters are real!"
Justin yells from his position against the wall. "What! Are you saying that 'cause it's a Shadow Game the Monsters are actually... Oh no! Azurada! Snap out of it! Realize what you are doing!"
Azurada ignores Justin's plea, and continues. "Now let's see... It's my move! Dark Blade the Dragon Knight! Attack Zompire's Life Points:
(Zompire: 1700)
Justin, still lookaing at Azurada's onslaught, thought, Since the monsters are real, the geek was actually slashed at with Azurada's monster! I need to snap him out of it!
Zompire Geek's helmet falls off revealing the fan's real face, so he now speaks in dork voice. "Now its my turn! I play De-Fusion! Now Dark Blade is separated from his dragon!"
Dark Blade was forced to dismount form his dragon (Dark blade, 1800: PitchDark Dragon, 900)
"But wait, there's more! Now i play Snatch Steal to rob you of your Dark Blade! I sacrifice it to summon Mobius the Frost Monarch! (2400) Attack Pitch-Dark Dragon with Ice Blizzard!"
Pitch-Dark Dragon gets frozen into an ice statue, then crumbles. (Azurada :400LP)
"Feel my wrath!" Azurada was now in full-blown rage. "First i play... Pandemonium!"
Honda cocks his head to one side. "Hey! I have that one! What's he up to?"
Azurada takes a card and places it on the DuelDisc. "Now I summon Warrior of Zera in attack mode! (1600)"
Zompire couldn't help laughing, and said, "What in Ra's name are you thinking? My Frost Monarch can easily destroy your warrior AND your Life-Points! Not to mention Banishment to the Shadow Realm!"
Azurada sneers. "Did i say I was done? Warrior of Zera has a little tale behind him. He is a lone warrior who wanders the lands in search of the power of the Archlords. He fights solo in order to avoid going to the darkness. But tough luck! Warrior of Zera! Embrace the power of the Pandemonium!"
Warrior of Zera loses control and he transforms to Fiendlike proportions, a scenario similar to Azurada losing control.
"Become the monster known as MaZera DeVille! (2800) And once summoned, say goodbye to 3 cards from your hand!"
3 cards explode in mini-booms from Zompire's hand. Now the geek has a nasty burn on his hand,
"MaZera DeVille! ATTACK!"
MaZera shoots a beam from his mouth. Mobius the Frost Monarch crumbles and shatters.
(Zompire: 1300)
Yugi goes into conversation with Yami.
"Azurada may win the duel, but his rage may take form"
Yami nods his transparent head in agreement. "Yes, we need to release him from his rage!"
Zompire's turn now. He yells, "I play Monster Reborn to revive Pitch-Dark Dragon, and sacrifice him to summon... Dark Magician Girl!
Azurada gets even more pissed. "You STOLE MY CARD! GIVE IT BACK!"
Zompire laughs and refuses. "Oh, no... You see my goal is not to win but to beckon you over to my side! I'll leave Dark Magician Girl in attack mode and end my turn. Once you're rage is at its maximum. Ashiro will absorb the power he needs to annihlate the world! But he must suction it from you in person. And with your rage gone, you will be a broken man... forever! Aaaaaahahahahahahahahahaha!
Azurada becomes even MORE enraged, "I DRAW! EXCELLENT! I PLAY MALEVOLENT NUZZLER AND INCREASE MY MONSTERS POWER (3500)! NOW MAZERA DEVILLE! ATTACK DARK MAGICIAN GIRL!"
MaZera leaps to attack when Justin, unable to stand Azurada's rage, screams in a last-ditch attempt to release Azurada, NO don't!
A flashback in time appears in Azurada's mind.
The teenager with a crush on Aresia walks up towards Azurada and says, "I told you not to mess with her!"
"No don't!" pleaded Aresia
Then there was a gunshot. Azurada leaps out of the way, but he failed to notice that Aresia was right behind him and caught the bullet.
Azurada screams, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
The flashback ends and Azurada finally regained control.
"UH! What happened?"
MaZera attacks Dark Magician Girl. The magician screams in pain as she is destroyed.
Zompire Geek has lost.
Azurada was overcome by fear. "Wh-what happened? Justin? what happened to me!"
Justin had to tell the truth. "Zompire's spell. It forced you to be overcome by your rage because of those painful visions from your past. Your rage took over, almost permanently."
"M-my what? What happened to the geek who--"
"Gone. He lost the Shadow Game, so he was banished to the Shadow Realm.
Also..." He was bursting into tears.
"The monsters in that duel were real and your rage left you with no regard towards the feelings of the monsters. You came to just as MaZera DeVille destroyed your Dark Magicin Girl!"
"My D-Dark Magician Girl! He stole it and used it against me. Oh God, what have I done? WHAT HAVE I DONE!"
Azurada, unable to cope with the greatest of emotional stress, started to mourn his victory.
