Light of the Lost
Chapter 7
A Friend In Deed
As the two Duelists, Rapael and Yugi, left Kaiba Land, another figure aproached
after having an unusual Begining to her day. This particular figure's name was
Yoko Ankoku Mouto; Yugi's cousin on his father's side. (Sorry Egypt, but sister
didn't seem to fit the situation here.) She had arrived after gaining one of the
imfamous Egyptian God cards. Not to mention it happened after a very interesting
vision which caused her to look for her Dueling relative. This vision, of course,
was not at all a normal thing in this girl's life.
It was just half passed 4:00PM when 16 year old Yoko made it home after a
day of school, and schooling her friends in duel monsters. She always prided
herself in her Cyber Dragon Deck, knowing it's contents to be as rare as
anything Seto Kaiba could dish out in a duel. Yet, dispite her life, pranking
kids at school, and winning all state, even regional tornaments, she aloways
wanted to head for Japan to see her Cousin Yugi, who funny enough was the
current world champ. On this particular day, she decided to take a quick nap
before heading down to the store for supplies as her mother had asked since
she'd be out on buisness. All in all, she felt she wanted something exciting to
happen for once. As she put her head down on the pillow, she would certainly
find out just what could come of such thinking.
Yoko soon found herself in a purpleish colored plain with the huge form of
Slifer the Sky Dragon looking down uppon her. Normal people when faced
with this kind of thing would be scared or shocked. She, true to her character
said, "COOL! Now that's what I call a dragon!" Needless to say, Slifer once
again showed, that even god monsters can fall on their faces in frustraition at
times. "Greetings young Yoko, I take it you know my identity?" the Egyptian
divinity asked. "DUH! Your one of Yugi's god cards, Slifer right? Man this is
too great! And here I was thinking I'd never get to see a god monster up close
and personal. WOW!" was the response from the odviously happy duelist. "I'm
afraid that the news I bring to you is not so good," Slifer lamented as he
explained what Yugi has had to endure this past time. As he came to the part of
Yugi being the true Pharoah and needing help, she interupted in a cold voice,
"That bastard of a mummy reject is going to feel pain. And if those dark feaks
want a piece of my cousin, then they can kiss my shinny metal ASS!" Slifer
mearly looked at the girl as though she needed to be put down. "Uh, it's one of
my favorite quotes from Futurama that I say when I'm really pissed. I kinda like
to immitate Bender. Eh, hehe." Once again, Slifer wondered if dealing with
such crazy mortals was really going to help matters, or just make them worse.
"Right, then," Slifer said still a little concious of the girls last statement.
Anyway, since the gods have been freed from the false Pharoah's power, we
need powerful duelists to aid us in protecting and helping young Yugi." That
was as far as he gor before the young girl Latched onto his tail saying, "You
got yourself a partner!" As if the god thought her...whatever she had was
contagious, he transported her back to her world to wake up, wondering what
kind of horrors that kid would put him through in the end. As Yoko woke up,
she looked at her deck seeing her new gods card sitting at the bottom. But she
wouldn't abuse such power just for fun while on a mission...right?
Oh well, at least she was board no longer.
That had been 12 hours ago, after which, she hopped the nearest fight for Domino
Japan and sought Raphael's place. After questioning the servents, she learned
they'd gone to Kiba Land and followed and caught up just in time to see them
exit. What happens next should be no surprise, right. "YUGI!" called a fast
moving human torpeado which was streeming toward our wayward duelist. At
least Raphael had enough sence to stand a fair distance away as said projectile
pulled it's intended target into a major glomp. "I..I..it's g..gr..grea..t t..t.to s..see
you too, Y..yo..ko..-kun," wheezed little Yugi as he was rapidly being strangled by
his cousin's standard hello glomp, 50 percentstrength. "Yugi-kun!" the girl
beamed at her beloved cousin as his face regained some color, " It's been too long!
Though time odviously left someone short-handed," She added with a giggle. 'And
here come the short jokes,' Yugi thought as he saw his wierd relative look him up
and down,' next come the comments on fasion.' "Oh Yugi! This outfit just doesn't
work with your frame, and what's with the bedhead, I've told you for years to let it
down. It just doen't do to.." "..Look like a migit porcupine at age 16. I know, I
know," Yugi seemlessly filled in his age as she normally did about his style only
ever changing his age with the same argument for years.
"Humf!" the girl pouted with her bottem lip quivering in an invincible puppy dog
pout that always seemed impossible for any human to pull off. "Yugi," she
wimpered," is that all you have to say, even after I traveled all this way just to see
you?" The tears at the corner of her eyes were a nice touch as well. Needless to
say Yugi nearly crumbled at the sight that only his cousins antics could possibly
cause. "Plus, I have a surprise friend to show you," she added as she whipped out
a card we all know and love. "SLIFER THE SKY DRAGON!" Yugi exclaimed
with enough force to put most opera singers to shame. "Wow, Yugi," Raphael
said in a monotone as he masaged his ears," couldn't have cranked up the decible
more. I think a few of the Americans and British missed that." Needless to say,
Yugi had a neon blush after the comment but still had to ask. "Yoko, how did you
get Slifer?" "I got the card after he said you were the real Pharoah and I had to
help you against a new enemy," the girl responded with a blinding smile. As they
processed this info, a familliar group of voices drifted their way. "So I says ta
him, git of my doughnut yah rarehunta freak," this comment said by a bad New
York accented kid whome we all know as Joey Wheeler. As a matter of fact, the
entire gang seemed to turn the corner, happening upon the reunion. Silence rained
as old faces met for the first time in a while.
Yoko's expression turned cold. Raphael addopted a scoul he wore in contempt of
the Pharoah and his groupies. Yugi, strangly enough, seemed almost unphased, if
you ignored his fist currling so tight, blood started to flow. "Yugi?" an uncertain
Tea asked as she stepped forward from the group. Yugi stepped back in response
as his cousin moved between them. "What do you guys want. Haven't you hurt my
cousin enough!" said Yoko in a voiced that promissed tortures the likes of which
made the Shadow Realm look like paradise by comparison. The others seemed
contemplative as Joey spyed something in Yoko's hand. "HEY, wha are you doin'
with Slifer?" he demanded as he recognised that card. "For your information, I
was chosen to use to and protect Yugi. Now that that ancient fossils power over
the gods is broken, I and 2 others will be gifted with thier power and charged to
guard the true Pharoah behind me, she said, more and a hint of steel in her voice.
"Yugi? Pharoah? Is this some kind of joke?" Called Tristen as he walked up to
the front of the pack. Raphael was on him in an instant, sending the anteni-
haired teen straight into a wall. "Any one else want to crack a whitty remark,"
he said dairing any to speak out. "I don't know what this is all about," Yami said
in his usual tone," but only I can use a god card properly, now stop this nonscense
and hand it over."
Yoko began to chuckle darkly," You want my card, you'll have to duel me for it.
If I win, you hang up you duel disk and cards for good. And just to be sporting, I
won't even use my god card in my deck." This did little but make the ancient
spirit-made-flesh cock his normal grin in place. "Very well, the winner walks
away with a god, but remember who you've just challenged," the cocky bas...I
mean arogant jerk said clicking his disk into place. Jusy as Yoko was about to
click her disk too, Yugi handed her a card. "For luck, Yoko-kun," he said smiling
at his cousin. "No big Yugi-kun," she said with a shrug and a shuffle," this guy's
nothing but a dried up has-been compaired to me." With no more delay, both
players drew their cards and called out," DUEL!"
4000 Yoko
4000 Yami
"Challenger goes first," said Yoko as she waited for Yami to begin. "Alright, you
were warned," said the former ruler of Egypt. "I summon Alpha the Magnet
Worrior, in attack mode(1400Atk/1700Def). I'll also set one card face-down,
your move."
Yoko had a stern look on her face that not even Kiba could use on his best(worst)
day. "My move, and it starts with Mystical Space Typhoon, destroying your set
card." This followed with the loss of Magic Cylinders for Yami. " Next I'll
summon one of my favorite monsters, Cyber Dragon! in attack mode!
(2100Atk/1600Def) A monster mechanical dragon with no arms or legs apeared
on the field. "Wait," Joey called," You need to sacrifice a monster to summon a
level 5 monster!" "Not my Cyber Dragon," Yoko informed. "As long as my
enemy has one monster and I have none, I can special summon it to the field right
away. Moving right along, I'll play cost down next, and discard another Cyber
Dragon, so I can summon yet another to the field." That said, another monster like
the first apeared. Both having a hungry look in their red metal eyes. Alpha
seemed to knoew it's impending doom as it started to whine and shiver. " Now!
Attack Cyber Dragon #1." This caused the dragon to leap forward an crush the
worrior to powder in it's jaws.
4000 Yoko
3300 Yami
"I'm not done yet, next up is my second for a direct attack!" The next the charged,
throwing Yami clear off his feet from the impact.
4000 Yoko
1200 Yami
"Next, I'll play Polymerization, to fuse them together to form, Cyber Twin
Dragon!" (2800Atk/1800Def) This new fusions roar made all of the old gang feel
like steel was scraped on their bones. "I'll also set 1 down card, your turn." Yoko
finished in no uncertain terms.
This seemed to overwhelm Yugi former dark, as he was staring down not just an
angry duelist, a monster that had power to rival a Blue Eyes. Yet, both players
knew this game was just getting started.
Author's notes:
I hope this chapter was better than the last, and next chapetr we'll see Yoko give Yugi his new look, yet, who will win?
Hope you won't hate me for this cliffy, please know the finish will be one to remember.
To anyone still waiting sorry about the slow update, but school is a bigger obsticle than I thought. I'll try for an update a week.
I only pray for your support, and hope the conclusion to this duel is to your liking. Thanks again!
Later Days!
