Note: I do apologize about how long it took to get this chapter up. I just kind of lost interest in writing, got too busy, then had a hard time writing up the duel.
Comments: Their style of dueling? My own, haha. They'll be using 4000 LP for the sake of length, but other than that they'll be following regular official UDE rules (except when I throw in my own twists for comedy and whatnot). But you'll see a bit down, because round 1 of the tournament and the first big duel happens in this chapter!
Chapter 3 – Viva La King of Games
Trowa stood perfectly still with his patented stoic look, staring at the Master Chief as the holograms between them faded. Master Chief started to rise to his knees before the familiar dark, shadowy fog crept up and enveloped him.
"And the winner is, Trowa!" Yami Bakura exclaimed. "The next match will be Jaden Yuki against Yami Yugi… begin!"
"Get your game on!" Jaden yelled, sliding his deck into the duel disk as it lit up and he drew his five cards.
"It's time to d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-…" Yami Yugi began.
"Is he okay?" Jaden asked, looking up at Yami Bakura.
"Yes," Yami Bakura said with a sigh, shaking his head. "He always does this. Just give him time." Another five minutes passed before Yami Yugi finished.
"D-d-duel!" he yelled, also sliding his deck into the duel disk as it lit up and he drew his five cards. "I'll start." He then drew a card. "I'll begin by summoning Skilled Dark Magician! Then, I'll activate Graceful Charity. This lets me draw three new cards from my deck and discard two from my hand." As Yami Yugi discards two cards, a crystal on Skilled Dark Magician begins to glow. "Now I'll activate Pot of Greed, allowing me to draw two new cards from my deck! And I'll then activate Gather Your Mind, which allows me to take one more Gather Your Mind card from my deck and add it to my hand. But that's not all… now that my Skilled Dark Magician has three Spell Counters, I'll Tribute him to Special Summon my Dark Magician! Your move."
"All right," Jaden said, drawing a card. "Just what I was hoping for. I'll play Polymerization, fusing the Elemental Heroes Avian and Burstinatrix in my hand to form… Elemental Hero Flame Wingman! I'll then activate Skyscraper!" As a city begins to rise from the ground, surrounding Dark Magician, Flame Wingman flies to the top and stands on a spire in front of a full moon. "Now, Flame Wingman, attack his Dark Magician!"
"Jaden, have you forgotten that my Dark Magician has a higher Attack than your Flame Wingman?" Yami Yugi asks, seeming confused.
"No I haven't," Jaden says, smirking. "Because my Flame Wingman has fewer Attack points, the effect of my Skyscraper activates… increasing his Attack by 1000!"
At this point, Bakagami walked over to Yami Yugi whistling and carrying a large cardboard cut-out of a card and placed it face-down on Yami Yugi's side of the field, where it began to hover.
"You forget about my face-down card, Jaden," Yami Yugi yells. As the card begins to rise, it is revealed to be Magic Cylinder. Suddenly, Flame Wingman's attack disappears into a tube and is then shot out of another tube at Jaden, whose LP drop to 1900.
"I'll end my turn by throwing down a face-down," Jaden says, smiling.
"My turn," Yami Yugi says, drawing a card. "Dark Magician, attack his Flame Wingman!"
"Thanks," Jaden says. "You've activated my Trap, Draining Shield!" As Jaden's face-down card rises, Dark Paladin's attack is stopped by a blue shield and Jaden's LP raise to 4400. "And now it's my turn. I'll summon Winged Kuriboh in Defense, and end my turn by throwing down two face-downs."
"It's time to end this," Yami Yugi says as he begins his turn. "I'll equip my Dark Magician with Axe of Despair, increasing his Attack by 1000! I'll then activate Diffusion Wave-Motion. By paying 1000 LP, this allows my Dark Magician to attack all monsters on your side of the field!"
"Not so fast!" Jaden yells. "I'll activate my face-down card, Transcendent Wings! By getting rid of two cards in my hand, this transforms my Winged Kuriboh into Winged Kuriboh LV10!"
"That doesn't matter." Yami Yugi retorts. "It's still not strong enough to survive the attack of my Dark Magician."
"But Winged Kuriboh LV10 has an effect," Jaden says, smirking. "By Tributing it, all monsters on your side of the field in Attack are destroyed and you lose LP equal to their Attack!" As Winged Kuriboh LV10 disappears, Dark Magician blows up and Yami Yugi's LP drop to 500.
"And now that it's my turn, I can use my Flame Wingman to attack you directly and end this duel!" Jaden yells. As Yami Yugi's LP drop to 0, the dark shadowy fog creeps up and envelops him… and just like that, he is gone. "Cool trick… I wonder how he did that," Jaden muses.
