Sdrive: Well, not much to say here, just three more chapters I believe until the finals begin! Three is just an estimate mind you so don't hold me to it. Alright, let's begin.
Sdrive had just received the call from Yamato. "I have to go help Yamato pick up some guys who just lost a duel. Tag Team match up I believe it was. If you want to come with, feel free."
Mamimi looked at Sdrive and then bit her lip. "Well…I sorta have someone I have to meet."
"Then why don't you tell me the last of the story now?" Sdrive said looking at her.
"Maybe some other time," Mamimi said not realizing what she was saying. She then picked up Tak-Kun and ran off.
"Humph" Sdrive said as he decided to continue to walk towards the location that Yamato had given him. He was walking along when something caught his attention. He looked around but didn't see anything. There were buildings around him on the left and the ending of buildings on the right. Where more buildings picked up on the other side, and something was pulling him to go to the right. "Yamato said to keep going along this road, but something is calling out to me over here." Suddenly he felt someone place a firm hand on his shoulder. He quickly spun around and was about to elbow them in the stomach when he saw who it was. "Yami!"
"Yes," the former pharaoh said looking down the right. "Something is pulling you to go this way too isn't it?"
Sdrive nodded and looked down the road. "I told Yamato that I would help him pick up some people who lost a duel, but I can't just ignore this feeling. And I don't feel right having you go do it alone." Sdrive picked up his cell phone and dialed Yamato's number. "Yamato, I can't come help you, something has come up, something, not ordinary."
"I'll see if I can find someone else to get these guys then and I'll come down and help you out."
"No need, I have Yami here with me, we're going to check it out. Sdrive out." He flipped the phone off and replaced it on his belt. "Well, I guess we aren't going to get anything accomplished by just sitting here and doing nothing," Sdrive said.
Yami nodded, "I agree, we should start down there, but we should be cautious." They went to the right and slowly walked down the street, feeling that whatever it was that they were sensing was getting stronger. "Are you nervous?" Yami asked Sdrive.
He shook his head, "No, more curious than anything else." They continued to walk when suddenly they both turned their heads towards a small brick house, with a red door, and only one window.
"The strange presence is in there," Yami said. He walked to the window but the but there were shades on the other side stopping him from seeing inside. He caught Sdrive out of the corner of his eye, his hand going for the door knob. "Be careful," Yami said. "There is no telling what is on the other side."
Sdrive nodded and he slowly grasped the door handle with Yami right behind him. He turned the knob and the door opened, a bit to their surprise. They looked inside but the room was dark, but there was definatly magic at work inside the house. Sdrive looked around as he stepped inside. The door shut and they could hear a click as the door locked. Sdrive tried to undo the lock while Yami tried to find a switch, he was unsuccessful. "There doesn't seem to be a switch in here," he said. "What about the lock?"
"It seems to need a key. As for the lights, maybe this is the way they want it," Sdrive said staring into the dark.
"The way who wants it?" Yami asked.
Sdrive shrugged, however Yami couldn't see it. "Whoever was, or is, using magic in here."
"I find it so curious, you seem so at ease with magic, and yet you really didn't know much about it before you came to be in our group," Yami said looking on at Sdrive.
"I've always had magic, always been able to use it, just never chose too." Sdrive said still looking into the dark. "I would use it to practice with, to get better with, but that doesn't mean I used it openly in public."
"You really tend to keep to yourself don't you," Yami said.
"True," Sdrive said, "I find it easier to work that way."
"It isn't any grudge against any of us for what happened to Kelly is it?"
Sdrive shook his head, "No, I've always been like this."
"It's strange, I have never heard you use your true name. I've heard Peace's true name, once back in Domino, but you have never once revealed your name."
"Maybe that's because knowing ones name can lead to information that one might not want released."
"Come again?"
Sdrive sighed, "When you know one's name, you hold a piece of their soul. Yet, if you give someone a fake name, they can never hold a piece of your true soul."
"Yuko Ichihara said something similar to that," Yami said a bit shocked.
"Yeah, Yamato and I spoke to her in the hospital. She is the one who got me thinking about holding on to a piece of ones soul when you know their name. I have started to think of it in that way as well. However, I used to look at it as just knowing ones name might allow them to find out information about them."
"So, is it more that you are trying to hide something?" Yami asked.
"Possibly," he said turning to Yami with a face that was mixed with a smile and a bit of sternness. "If you knew my name, now a days you could easily search on the internet for newspaper clippings and stuff like that with information containing my real name."
"Are you suggesting that you are some kind of criminal?"
Sdrive chuckled, "No, but it's a lot easier to get through something if people think that you are not as smart as you really are."
"So then you are some kind of genius?"
"Wrong again, lets say," Sdrive looked around and then started a different thought. "I can finally see through the darkness, you?" He saw Yami nod and Sdrive continued. "Ok, after this thought I say we continue to look for whatever it is we are sensing. Lets say I didn't know your name was Yami, or for other people, let me go with Yugi. Almost everyone in the gaming world knows the name Yugi Moto, due to you and Yugi being the Duel Monsters World Champions. But, what if when we met, you told me your name was Joey. I would then think that you would be only the second best duelist. Not realizing that you were in fact the world champion."
"So, your logic is that if you go by a different name, Sayora will not realize how good you are at Duel Monsters!" Yami said finally understanding what Sdrive was getting at.
"Exactly," Sdrive said smiling. "Now you are getting the picture. But not just Sayora, anyone who I wish not to know my real name."
"Why do you feel as though you can not trust me?"
"It's more just to keep other people from knowing who I am, if I go by one name all the time, then no one will be able to link me to my real name. I've been using the name Sdrive for a while. Kelly knew that was the name I was using and she knew why as well. But the difference is, Kelly knows my real name, but she knows better than that. She know's why I have taken on the name Sdrive, and she knows not to reveal it for any reason. In all actuality, my going by the name of Sdrive, in the end, all has to do with Kelly."
"It is still confusing," Yami said to him.
"I know, but don't worry, by the end of the tournament, I will reveal everything for you. I promise. We are almost ready for the finals. Can you wait just those few days for me?"
"If that is what you wish, then I shall respect your wishes."
"Thank you Yami. Now come on, I think we have some buisness to attend too."
"Right," Yami said as they began to walk through the house. They noticed that there was a small stair case that went up an upper level. They decided to go up first. They went through the top of the house but couldn't find anything. They walked back down the steps and decided to check through the bottom of the house. They still couldn't find anything until they passed by a door way which seemed to have a strange aura coming from behind it. Yami looked at the door and then to Sdrive.
"Lets open it," Sdrive said.
Yami nodded and then slowly turned the door knob and opened the door. They looked inside and noticed a stair case going down. The aura that they were feeling seemed to be coming from the basement. "We should go down and see if we can't find the source of the power." Sdrive agreed and then they headed down the steps, Yami first. Unknowing to them they were being watched by a camera on the opposite wall facing towards the door.
"Yes my friends," Sayora said watching the camera. "See if you can't spot the source of the power. I know for a fact that you will find the power down there, but what will you do with it, hmm, 'Sdrive'? Will you use it? Or will you let your opponent use it?" She chuckled and presseed a button that brought a new image on the screen. "Either way, you will be in great danger."
Sdrive and Yami were walking down the steps slowly. "Hey Yami," Sdrive said.
"Yes?"
"Does it feel to you as though we are walking through something that isn't really here?"
"We are," Yami said still walking down. "We are walking down a stair case that has been placed under a spell. This staircase will not lead us down to the basement of the house, we will exit elsewhere. However I can sense that this spell goes both ways, if we were to go back up the stairs, we will arrive back in the house."
"So is this spell what we were sensing?" Sdrive asked.
"Doubtful, this spell is different than the one we are sensing. What we seek, was purposely placed elsewhere, and I presume that this staircase is the only way to reach it. In fact, this power that I am sensing seems familiar to me, but I can't quite place where I have felt it before. But I can sense that the power is evil."
"So in other words we should be careful."
"Exactly," Yami said as they continued their walk down the steps. They walked for another half a minute until the staircase finally ended. They found themselves in a peculiar hallway that was inside of a cave. The walls were damp and it was cold in the hallway. They could see a small feint light with a touch of green light a few yards away. They nodded and walked down the hallway. The cave began to become smoother and soon it looked as if the cave was man made.
"Who could have made this place, and why?" Sdrive asked.
"I don't know," Yami said as they walked down the hallway. They were entering the part of the cave where the green light was. The cave opened up to a room with a small alter with lit candles on poles at either side of the alter. They walked in to look at the room. It seemed to be be dry and was a dark brown. There was a small brown rug on the floor and the ceiling was in the shape of a dome. There were more lit candles, some on poles, and some on small lamps that led towards the alter.
The alter was grey and there seemed to be something glowing green on it. Yami's eyes were closed and he seemed as though he was concentrating hard and trying to figure out what the power was. Suddenly his eyes shot open and he stared at the alter menacingly, "It can't be," he said.
"Can't be what?" Sdrive asked. He began to walk towards the altar when Yami placed his hand firmly on his shoulder. "What's up Yami?"
"That power, is something that should not be messed with," Yami said staring at it.
"I was just going to look at it, I wasn't going to touch whatever it was."
Suddenly the doors behind them closed and they turned around and saw two women standing there with narrowed eyes. One was dressed in a black sweatshirt with metal shoulder pads that held a spike in the center of the shoulder pads. She wore black pants that had more metal armor on it. She had long silver hair and grey eyes. The second was wearing a purple kimono, her long black hair went almost completely down her back. She had a dark blue sash wrapped around her waist, and her hazel eyes were staring at Yami and Sdrive. Unlike the other woman, she seemed younger and a bit nicer.
"Who are you?" Yami demanded.
"I'm Kouken, and that is my younger sister, Seirei," the one with the armor and silver hair said.
"What is it you want?" Sdrive asked looking at the two girls. The one named Seirei looked Sdrive in the eyes and then turned her head away from him.
"We want your souls," Kouken said firmly. "Well, Princess Sayora wants your souls anyway, and she has hired us as eliminators, and our job is to eliminate either Yugi Moto, Sdrive Same..."
'How does she know my last name?' Sdrive thought truly shocked.
"...or Yamato," Kouken finished grinning. "Our job was to take you out one at a time, but I can't pass up the opportunity to take you both out at the same time."
"At the same time?" Yami said. "You mean as in a Tag Team Duel!"
"Yes, I wasn't planning on it, because I didn't expect you both to be in the area when you sensed the special magic," Kouken said grinning at the altar. "But I suppose this works just as well."
Sdrive was staring at Seirei, 'She hasn't said one word yet,' he thought. 'Is she being forced into this duel?' Seirei looked up and when she saw Sdrive looking at her she put her head back down. 'Is she scared of me? Or is it something else?' Kouken then broke Sdrive out of his thoughts.
"I'm going to let you two have the choice of using the magic on that altar, if you choose to use it you may, but if neither of you use it, one of use gets it," her eyes turned to Seirei and she gave a small smirk. Her eyes turned back to Yami and Sdrive, "I doubt the Pharaoh will wish to use our gift, but perhaps Sdrive?"
"Sdrive don't!" Yami said looking over at him.
"What's wrong?" Sdrive said not even considering using whatever the strange magic was.
"We must not use the card they have set up on that altar. I used it once, and I almost lost Yugi forever."
"Alright, we won't use it," Sdrive said. "May I at least ask what the card is?"
"It's called the Seal of Oricalcos. It grants whoever uses it an extra 500 attack points to all their monsters, on top of that they get 10 monster spots instead of 5."
"I'm guessing there is more to it than that."
"There is," Yami said. "The Seal of Oricalcos releases the darkness in your heart, and causes you to become evil, and once the duel is over, who ever loses, the Seal takes their soul. I defeated the original holder of this card, and I don't know how these two got their hands on it, but it is bad news."
"You would be amazed at what Princess Sayora can accomplish," Kouken said as she walked began walking towards the altar. She walked past the two and picked up a small necklace with a green stone and a card off the altar. She then walked back towards the door and then handed the necklace and the card to Seirei. Seirei looked up at Kouken with what Sdrive could have sworn were sad eyes. "Make me proud," Kouken said as she walked over to her side of the room.
"We must be extremely careful," Yami said looking at the two girls. "The Seal of Oricalcos changes the rules completely."
Sdrive however wasn't listening to Yami. He was staring at Seirei as she slowly put the necklace on and then put the card in her deck and started shuffling not looking up from her deck. She placed her Deck in her Duel Disk and it unfolded. 'I really don't think she wants to be in this duel, but I can't figure out why.' He took out his own deck, shuffled it and inserted it into his Duel Disk letting his Duel Disk unfold.
"Did you hear me?" Yami asked Sdrive as his Duel Disk unfolded.
"What did you say?" Sdrive said looking up at Yami.
"I said we must be careful, the Seal of Oricalcos changes all the rules of the game."
"I'm not too worried about that, one could say that about the Egyptian God Cards too," Sdrive said as he pictured the Sky Dragon of Osiris card in his deck.
"That is true, but remember, we know nothing about their decks, this could be much harder than you think," Yami said sternly.
"The order will go Sdrive, Seirei, the Pharaoh, and then me," Kouken said snickering. "As eliminators, you will automatically receive the number of cards you need from us to enter the finals."
"I need 3," Yami said.
"Two for me," Sdrive said.
"Very well, however, its not as if you will be able to beat us," Kouken said flashing a devious smile. She inserted her deck and the Duel Disk unfolded. "Get ready and duel!"
Sdrive drew his opening cards along with the other three duelists. Sdrive looked down at his cards and smiled. "I summon Skilled Black Magician!" Sdrive said as he placed the card on the field. The magician in black robes appeared on the field holding onto his silver staff (1900/1700). "I also set one card under the table and that ends my turn."
It was Seirei's turn. She looked at her hand and decided what to do from there. "I play the Pot of Greed," she said as she placed the card on the disk.
'She has a pretty voice,' Sdrive thought to himself as he looked at her.
Seirei looked at the two cards and gasped. The necklace around her neck glowed for a few seconds and she grasped it with her other hand.
"I see you have drawn our winning card," Kouken said smiling. "Play it. Make me proud."
Sdrive noticed that it almost seemed as though Seirei was struggling with what to do. Her eyes locked with his and then she shook her head. She flipped up the Field Card Zone on her Duel Disk and placed the card on the field. The necklace started glowing bright as the Seal appeared above all their heads. The Seal lowered itself to the ground and the Star of the Oricalcos appeared within the Seal. Sdrive let out a small growl as a black aura seemed to engulf Seirei's body. The mark of the Oricalcos appeared on her forehead and her eyes turned from hazel to red. She smiled a bit deviously and looked at Yami.
"Since you activated two spells, my Skilled Black Magician gains two Spell Counters," Sdrive said as he watched his Skilled Black Magician glow.
"We are in trouble now," Yami said looking at her.
"I summon Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer!" she said as a man with purple robes, green vest, and prayer beads appeared on the field (1800/700). The mark of the Oricalcos appeared on his forehead and his eyes turned red. His attack points increased as he smiled sinisterly at his opponents (2300/700). "I set one card under the table and end my turn," she said, all traces of niceness almost completely gone from her voice.
"That makes it my turn!" Yami said drawing his 6th card. "I summon my Retrained Elven Swordsman!" Yami said as the Elfen Swordsman appeared on the field holding his sword in front of him. (1400/1200) "My Elven Swordsman can not be destroyed by monsters with 1900 attack points or more. Also I give him a power boost, for now I activate Mage Power! This gives my warrior an extra 500 attack points for each Spell and Trap on my side of the field. I set three cards under the table giving my Elfen Swordsman an extra 2000 attack points. (3400/1200). That ends my turn," Yami said.
"And activating Mage Power gave my Skilled Black Magician its final counter." Sdrive said smiling slightly. He was still worried about Seirei but knew that nothing he did now could save her, she had activated the Seal of Oricalcos.
"And now it is my turn," Kouken said smiling deviously as she drew her 6th card. "I'll begin by setting one monster on guard and one card under the table and that will end my turn," she said smiling evilly.
"Its my turn," Sdrive said as he pulled the card from his deck. "First off I offer up my Skilled Black Magician using the three spell counters it has in order to special summon the Black Magician from my deck!" The Skilled Black Magician disappeared and the Black Magician took its place staring down at its opponents (2500/2100). "Don't think that's all," he said as he picked up a card from his hand. "I set one monster on guard." The card appeared on his side of the field and then he looked from Seirei to Kouken. 'I don't really want to attack Seirei, I feel almost bad for being in this duel with her, however, I have to attack one of them, and she seems to be the weaker of the two, even though she has the Seal of Oricalcos.'
"Well, what are you going to do?" Kouken asked Sdrive menacingly.
'I really don't like her,' Sdrive thought, 'But she wants me to attack her, so I'll have to go with Seirei.' "Now I send the Black Magician to attack Seirei's Kycoo!" Seirei looked shocked by the statement.
"Reverse Quick Play Spell Card, Book of Moon!" Seirei called out as a book appeared on the field. The book started glowing and the Black Magician disappeared.
"What just happened?" Sdrive asked.
"Book of Moon switches a monster on the field on guard face down."
Sdrive looked down at his field and saw that there was a card on the field where his Magician had once stood. "In that case I end my turn," he said.
Seirei looked at Sdrive coldly but her expression lightened up for a split second before she drew her card. She looked down at it and smirked. "First I activate the Spring of Rebirth Spell Card, each time a card returns to my hand I gain 500 life points. Next I will summon Maharaght!" A brown Tiki Doll with strange masks all over its body appeared on the field (1200/1700). "Before my draw phase next turn, I can look at the top card on my deck and either keep it on top or place it on the bottom."
"A pretty weird effect," Sdrive said, "Especially considering its low attack power."
"You won't think it's weak when the Seal of Oricalcos strengthens it's attack power!" Seirei said as the mark of the Oricalcos appeared on Maharaght's fore head. (1700/1700)
"I see you've never dueled against a Spirit Monster," Kouken said smiling.
"A spirit monster!" Yami gasped remembering his duel against Noa in the Virtual World.
"Yes," Seirei said, "Spirit monsters return to their owners hand at the end of the turn, and most of them have unique effects. At the end of this turn my Maharaght will return to my hand, so I won't have to worry about its low attack power." She looked at the face down card that was just recently the Black Magician. "Your Black Magician has a toughness of 2100, and my Kycoo has an attack of 2300. Kycoo, attack the Black Magician!" Kycoo began to chant and his prayer beads began glowing. He shot out an energy blast and the Black Magician appeared and was destroyed. "Now I send Maharaght to attack your other face down monster!" Maharaght went forward and hit the card. A woman in purple robes and a green staff appeared and was destroyed.
"You attacked my Apprentice Magician," Sdrive said. "I can now search for a spellcaster with a level of two or less and place it face down on guard on my side of the field," he explained as he scanned through his cards. He picked one and set it on the Duel Disk face down.
"What good is a monster with a power level of two?" Kouken asked.
"Oh you'll see, but now I have a question for you Kouken."
"And what is that?"
"What have you done to Seirei, before she played the Seal, she seemed as though she didn't even want to duel. Now she's acting completely different and I want to know why."
"I can answer that," Yami said. "It's as you said, she was different up until she played the Seal of Oricalcos. The dark energy of the Oricalcos clouded her thoughts and is misguiding her."
"Nonsense," Kouken said. "She is just getting a boost on her optimism for this duel."
"That's a lie and you know it!" Sdrive shouted at Kouken.
"If I remember correctly it's still my turn," Seirei said a bit annoyed. Everyone turned to look at her and she continued her move. "My battle phase ends, I set one card under the table and end my turn, and due to that my Maharaght returns to my hand and my Spring of Rebirth gives me an extra 500 life points." (L.P. 8500)
"It's my move," Yami said drawing his card. "I hate to disappoint you, but you have left your Kycoo wide open for a direct attack from my Retrained Elfen Swordsman. Go Elfen Swordsman, attack Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer!"
"Reverse Trap Card!" Kouken called out. "Kunai with Chain! This trap will shift your Elfen Swordsman on guard and will give my sisters Kycoo an extra 500 attack points." A kunai with a chain wrapped attached to it wrapped around the Elven Swordsman.
"I may not be able to stop my Elven Swordsman's position switch but I can get rid of the Kunai by reversing my face down Dust Tornado! True my Swordsman will now drop down to a 2900 but it is well worth it to get rid of your Trap Card." A tornado appeared on the field and destroyed the Kunai leaving the Elven Swordsman on guard. "That will end my turn," he said.
"Excellent, its about time," Kouken said drawing her card. "I set one monster on guard and then I set two cards under the table. Next I reverse summon my own Retrained Elven Swordsman!" The Swordsman appeared on the field with it's sword in it's hand. "Now Elfen Swordsman, attack the Pharaoh's swordsman with your silver blade slash!" The Swordsman ran up to the other one and slashed it across the chest and Yami's swordsman was destoryed.
"You've activated my trap!" Yami called out. "Soul Rope! I can pay 1000 Life Points to summon a monster from my deck with 4 stars or less." (L.P. 7000) Yami looked through his cards and then picked out one of them and placed it on the field. "I've summoned Beta the Magnet Warrior!" The yellow magnet warrior appeared on the field ready for battle. (1700/1600)
"Too bad in order to finish my move I have to end my battle phase," Kouken said a bit disappointed. "I would have loved to squash your Beta. Oh well, I move into my Main Phase Two and I activate Gravity Axe Grarl!"
"What's that do?" Sdrive asked.
"This card equips to one of my monsters, and gives it an extra 500 attack points and I chose to give it to my Retrained Elven Swordsman!" An axe appeared on the field and the Swordsman grabbed it and it's stats rose. (1900/1200) "Also my Gravity Axe makes it so that none of us can change out monsters battle positions. Now if you notice, I only have one card left in my hand, so now I can special summon Guardian Grarl!" Suddenly a muscular dinosaur appeared on the field with a large axe in its hand that resembled the Gravity Axe Grarl. (2500/1000) "My Guardian Grarl can only be normal summoned, flip summoned or special summoned when the Gravity Axe Grarl is on the field. Plus if it is the only card in my hand, I may Special Summon it to the field!"
"No way!" Sdrive said shocked. "That's absurd!"
"Maybe, but I play with cards that win! Now, I have no more cards in my hand so this ends my turn."
Sdrive drew his card and looked down at it. 'I'm in a tight spot,' he thought as he looked down at the card he just drew. 'However, this card should defiantly be able to help.' "Alright, it's my move! I set one monster on guard and then I set one card under the table and that will end my turn."
"There is only one word to describe your move," Seirei said picking up her card. "Pathetic."
"Come on Seirei, snap out of it!" Sdrive called out to her. "I know that the Seal of Oricalcos is messing up your mind!"
"SHUT UP!" Seirei shouted catching Sdrive by surprise. "This card is NOT messing up my mind!"
"You tell him sister," Kouken said with a devious smile. "This is the way you have always been, and you're going to stay this way."
"I won't let you get away with this!" Sdrive shouted at Kouken.
"Sdrive stop," Yami said.
"But…"
"The Seal of Oricalcos is messing with her mind, and it is making her oblivious to it. You won't be able to get through to her." Sdrive gritted his teeth and watched as Seirei made her next move.
"You have made me mad, and for that I'm attacking you this turn!" Seirei said, Sdrive could have sworn he saw a dark aura around her. "The effect of my Maharaght allows me to choose whether or not I want to keep the card I just drew or put it on the bottom of the deck and draw again. But I happen to like this card, so I'll keep it. Now I summon Asura Priest!"
"That's a very powerful Spirit Monster!" Yami called out.
A blue woman with many arms and daggers in each arm appeared on Seirei's side of the field. The Mark of the Oricalcos appeared on her forehead and her points strengthened. (2200/1200) "This card allows me to attack all monsters on your side of the field Sdrive! So now, Asura Priest attack the monster Sdrive just played!" Asura Priest threw one of it's daggers at Sdrive's monster, a small girl in a magicians outfit and a sheep hat on her head appeared and was destroyed.
"That was my White Magician Pikeru!" Sdrive said.
"And now Asura Priest will attack the pathetic monster he chose with his Apprentice Magician!" The dagger was thrown at the other card and an old magician with grey hair and a hunch on his back appeared and was destroyed.
"You just destroyed my Old Vindictive Magician, and his Special Ability allows me to destroy any monster on the field when he is reversed. So say goodbye to Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer!" Kycoo fell to the ground and blew to pieces of digital data."
Seirei gritted her teeth. "That ends my turn, and my Asura Priest returns to my hand which means that my Spring of Rebirth Spell Card grants me an extra 500 life points!" (L.P. 9000)
"It's my move," Yami said drawing his card. "The problem with your Spirit Monsters is that they return to your hand at the end of the turn. And now that your Kycoo is gone that means that the only thing keeping your Life Points safe is gone! I reverse my set Premature Burial! This card allows me to pay 800 Life Points in order to bring back a monster from my graveyard. So now I bring back my Retrained Elven Swordsman!" The Elven Swordsman appeared on the field again and Yami stood smiling at it. (L.P. 6200) "Now I offer up both my Retrained Elven Swordsman and Betat the Magnet Warrior in order to summon my Black Magician!" The Black Magician appeared on the field looking down at Seirei.
Seirei looked at the Black Magician and then caught a glimpse of the card in front of her. 'It's done for,' she thought.
"Go Black Magician, attack the player!" The Magician powered up its staff and shot a blast of energy at Seirei. Suddenly Seirei's set card flipped up and a Mirror Force Trap was on the field. "Not that!" Yami said shocked as the attack bounced back and blasted into the Black Magician. He blew to pieces and Yami let out a small growl. "You will pay for that," he said. "I end my turn."
"My move Kouken said drawing her card. Her devious smile grew larger. "It's time to activate Card of Sanctity! This Spell allows us all to draw until we are each holding 6 cards in our hands." Kouken drew 6 cards, Yami drew 4, Sdrive drew 3 and Seirei drew two.
"I summon Watapon on guard!" Yami said as he placed the monster on the field. The small white monster appeared on his side of the field. (200/300) "Whenever this card is drawn outside of the draw phase I can Special Summon him to the field."
"Not that it matters," Kouken said. "I reverse Shooting Star Bow-Ceal! This card decreases my Gardian Grarl's attack power but it allows him to attack directly!" (1500/1000) But that isn't all, for now I can summon Guardian Ceal!" A large Dinosaur holding onto a Bow and Arrow appeared on the field. (1700/1400) "And that's not all now I activate Wicked Breaking Flameberge Baou! This spell can't be activated unless I discard a card from my hand, so I discard Guardian Trice! Now I equip the Flameberge to my Guardian Grarl giving him an extra 500 attack points." (2000/1000)
"Whoa, I've never seen a strategy like this," Sdrive said shocked.
"And now its time, I send Guardian Grarl to attack the Pharaoh!" Guardian Grarl reached for it's arrow when Sdrive shouted out.
"Reverse Trap, Shadow Spell!" Chains came from Sdrive's card and caught Guardian Grarl in its place. "My Shadow Spell stops your Guardian from attacking, and it causes it to lose 700 attack points!" (1300/1000)
"Damn you for interfering, Retrained Elven Swordsman and Guardian Ceal, attack Sdrive!" The Retrained Swordsman ran up and Slashed Sdrive across his chest while Guardian Ceal shot him with an arrow.
Sdrive fell backwards and growled. "That won't be enough to keep me down." (L.P. 4400)
"You have almost lost half your life points, that's what you get for interfering," Kouken said. "That ends my turn."
Sdrive drew his card and looked down at it. "I just thought of a great move!" Sdrive said. "I summon Spear Dragon!" A blue white dragon appeared on the field, with a mouth that looked like a birds beak. (1900/0)
"When did you add that card in your deck?" Yami asked. "It seems so unlike you."
"Well, it represents Kyoshen, and it can do a lot of damage. If your opponent has a weak monster on the field and then a strong one, you can use the Spear Dragon to attack the weaker monster and then its ability kicks in. It will switch on guard and then you won't lose any life points. However in this case the setting is perfect. Go Spear Dragon, attack Guardian Grarl!" The Spear Dragon let out it's cyclone of wind and destroyed the Guardian."
"It doesn't matter, your life points are going down all the same, your stupid Spear Dragon has a toughness of 0, it will easily be destroyed," Kouken said. (L.P. 7400)
"It looks as if you have forgotten all about the Gravity Axe-Grarl you attached to your Elven Swordsman. It stops all monsters from switching positions. Therefore, my Spear Dragon's Effect is over ruled and it stays in attack mode, and none of your monsters are strong enough to destroy it. With that I end my turn."
"You got lucky this turn but my sister will take care of you," Kouken said and Seirei nodded."
Seirei drew her card and looked down at it, she smiled and then looked at Sdrive. "Fight it!" Sdrive said staring into her eyes. "I know you can do it!"
Seirei looked confused and started clutching her head. The stone around her neck began to glow again and she stopped clutching her head. "There is nothing to fight," she said simply as she turned to face Yami. "You mentioned earlier how my Spirit Monsters go back to my hand at the end of my turn, well, I bet you didn't know that there was a card in my deck that could stop that!"
"You have a card that over powers your Spirit Monsters effects!" Yami said surprised.
"Yes, and now I will activate it!" She held the card up in her hand and then slammed it down onto the field. "I've activated Spiritual Energy Settle Machine!" A large machine appeared on Seirei's side of the field. "This card allows me to keep all my Spirit Monsters on the field as long as I discard one card from my hand at the end of each turn. So now I will summon Asura Priest and thanks to the Seal of Oricalcos it is stronger than your Spear Dragon! (2200/1200) Go Asura Priest, attack his Spear Dragon!" The Asura Priest threw one of it's daggers at the Spear Dragon. The dagger hit the Spear Dragon and it was destroyed.
"I didn't realize there was a card that could keep Spirit Monsters from returning to your hand," Sdrive said as he watched his Life Points drop from the attack. (L.P. 4100)
"Thats right, and that means some of my stronger Spirit Monsters can make it to the field. Now, I end my turn and to keep my Spiritual Energy Settle Machine active, I discard my Maharaght. Now Pharaoh, lets see your power."
"Very well," Yami said as he drew his card "I don't want to dissapoint you, but I'm about to make my Life Points untouchable by you. I sacrifice my Watapon in order to summon the Catapult Turtle!" A large mechanical turtle with a catapult on it's back appeared on the field. (1000/2000)
"That monster is useless to you," Kouken said laughing evily.
"Oh?" Yami asked with a smirk on his face. He then took a card from his hand and placed it on the field. "I activate the Spell Card, Twingle Five Star!"
"What does that do?" Seirei said shocked.
"This card allows me to sacrifice a level 5 monster or higher from my field in order to summon the 5 Kuriboh Brothers!" The 5 Kuribohs appeared on the field, one brown, one white, one pink, one purple, and the last one green.
"Oh great, its the attack of the three toed hairballs," Kouken really uninterested in Yami's move.
"You shouldn't mess around with the Kuriboh Brothers, they have powers that you can't even begin to imagine. I will finish my turn by laying one card under the table." Yami did so and then let Kouken begin her turn.
"My move," Kouken said drawing her card. She looked at it and smiled, 'I'll be using this soon enough,' she thought to herself. "I activate my Butterfly Dagger Elma!" Kouken said as she placed the card on the field. A dagger with a Butterfly imprinted on it appeared on the field. "I equip it to my Guardian Ceal. This card gives the mosnter that it is equipped to an extra 300 attack points." (2000/1400)
"Your Guardian does not scare me," Yami said as he looked at the Guardian Ceal.
"Nore does it scare me," Sdrive said.
"You two are so Naive, for now that the Butterfly Dagger Elma is on the field, I'm allowed to summon Guardian Elma!" Suddenly a woman appeared on the field with red hair and the Butterfly Dagger in her hand. (1300/1200) "Guardian Elma's special abilty allows me to take back a spell card from my graveyard and equip it to her, so now I equip Wicked Breaking Flameberge Baou to my Guardian Elma, increasing her attack points by 500. (1800/1200)
"So, what are you going to do?" Yami asked.
"I'm going to get rid of your stupid furries! Go Guardian Ceal, attack the Pharaoh's Kuriboh!"
"Kuribi activate Star Defense!" Yami called out. Suddenly all the Kuriboh's gathered together and an energy star appeared in front of them. Guardian Ceal fired it's arrow at the Kuribohs but the arrow bounced off the energy star.
"What happened?" Kouken asked shocked.
"How did they stop your attack sister?" Seirei asked.
"As long as all of the Kuriboh Brothers are on the field, Kuribi can negate the attack of the mosnter that is attacking any of them."
"No way!" Kouken said shocked.
"Way to go Yami!" Sdrive cheered.
"I notice that you have nothing protecting your life points," Kouken said staring at Sdrive. Go Guardian Elma, and Elven Swordsman, attack the player." The two monsters went toward Sdrive and slashed at him. Suddnely a Kuriboh appeared on Sdrive's side of the field and blocked the Elven Swordsman attack. Guardian Elma was able to get through though and slashed Sdrive across the chest causing him to fall backwards. "I'm getting really sick of these Kuribohs!" Kouken yelled at the two of them.
"I'm not, that Kuriboh just really saved a lot of my Life Points," Sdrive said as he tried to regain his breath. (L.P. 2300)
"I end my turn, unless you can do anything during your next turn, my sister will wipe out the rest of your Life Points and the Seal of Oricalcos will take your soul."
Sdrive looked down at his deck, 'Kouken is telling the truth for once,' he thought to himself. 'The Seal of Oricalcos is messing up Seirei's mind, I think she really would do it. I only have one shot at this. Heart of the Cards, please guide me.' He picked the card on the top of his deck and looked at it. "I activate Pot of Greed!" he called out as he placed the card on the field. 'Here we go, this is the chance I needed.' He picked up his two cards and looked at them. "Alright, heres where things start to get a bit tricky."
'It looks like Sdrive has a plan,' Yami thought to himself.
"I activate Spell Absorption, this card makes it so that every time I activate a Spell Card I gain 500 Life Points. Now, I activate Double Spell, this card makes me discard a Spell Card to use a Spell Card from one of my opponent's graveyards, so I discard my Sages Stone to access Seirei's graveyard to use her Pot of Greed." Sdrive drew his two cards and smiled. "If you've noticed, that counts as activating two Spell Cards so therefore I gain 1000 Life Points. (L.P. 3300)
"Good Job," Yami said to Sdrive.
"It's not over yet, for now I activate Premature Burial, I have to pay 800 Life Points to use it but my Spell Absorption gives me back 500 of those Life Points. (L.P. 3000) Now I resurect my Black Magician!" The Black Magician reappeared on the field and looked down at his opponents. "And now, I'm going to borrow Seirei's idea of attacking all monsters at once by activating Diffusion Wave Motion!"
"Excellent Move!" Yami said.
"It costs 1000 life points to use but again, I gain 500 from Spell Absorption. And now my Black Magician can attack all the monsters on either of your sides, and I think it's long past time I gave Kouken a piece of my mind. Black Magician, attack all of Kouken's Monsters!" (L.P. 2500)
"No you can't!" Kouken said.
"It's too late to stop me now! Black Magician, Black Magic Attack!" The Black Magician began attacking Guardian Ceal, Guardian Elma, and Retrained Elven Swordsman. Guardian Ceal and Guardian Elma were destroyed but due to the Swordsmans effect it stayed on the field
It then attacked the one monster that Kouken had on the field for almost the entire duel. The Big Shield Gardna appeared on the field holding it's shield. (L.P. 2400)
"I can't beleive you got that lucky!" Kouken said as her Life Points dropped. (L.P. 5600)
"It wasn't luck," Sdrive began.
"It was the Heart of the Cards," Yami finished.
Sdrive nodded and looked at the cards in his hand. "I set one card under the table and that ends my turn," he said as the card appeared on his side of the field. "It is unfortunate that the Gravity Axe Grarl allows your Big Shield Gardna to stay on guard. But we'll get through it."
"Well, destorying Guardian Ceal was a mistake, because it also destroyed Butterfly Dagger Elma, which whenever it's destoryed can return to my hand," Kouken said as the Butterfly Dagger Elma card slid out of her graveyard slot and she put it back in her hand.
"It's my move!" Seirei said as she drew her card. "I activate Mystical Space Typhoon, to destroy the card you just set!"
"I've been waiting for this chance all game, Reverse Judgment of Anubis!"
"What does that do?" Seirei askes shocked.
"When you use a Spell Card that has the effect of destorying one of my Spells or Traps I can use this to negate it, also I get to destory one monster on your side of the field and when I do it's attack power is deducted from your life points!"
"No!" Seirei said as a black fog crept out of an arc with a statue of Anubis on it. It stopped the wind of the Mystical Space Typhoon and then crept around the Asura Priest. Asura Priest blew up and Seirei's life points were reduced. (L.P. 6800)
"That was the first card I set, and it's been lying in wait ever since," Sdrive said smiling.
"Don't think you are getting away from me that easily!" Seirei said. "I summon Inaba White Rabbit!" Suddenly a white rabbit one some kind of totem pole appeared on Seirei's side of the field. (700/500)
"And what exactly does that card do?" Sdrive asked.
"Well, for starters it gains a power boost thanks to the Seal of Oricalcos." She watched as the mark of the Oricalcos appeared on Inaba's head making it stronger. (1200/500) "After that, it's Special Ability allows it to attack you directly! Go Inaba, attack the player!" The totem pole shot towards Sdrive and Inaba prepared for it's attack.
"Reverse Trap!" Sdrive called out. "Magic Cylinder will turn the attack back to you!"
The totem pole went through one of the cylinders and then came out the other. It headed straight for Seirei smashing into her causing her to fall backwards. "That was dirty!" she said as her life points lowered. (L.P. 5600)
"A magician always has a trick up their sleeve," Yami said giving a thumbs up to Sdrive. Sdrive returned the Gesture.
'I thought if I took out some of his life points, my sister would be able to summon one of her stronger Guardians to take out the Black Magician and depleate the last of his life points,' Seirei thought with gritted teeth. 'Now my plan is ruined.' "I end my turn and I discard a card from my hand to keep Spiritual Energy Settle Machine on the field."
"Very well," Yami said as he drew his card and looked at it. "First, I transform my five Kuriboh Brothers into Kuribabylon!" A large, angry looking black Kuriboh with a giant horn on it's head appeared on the field. (1500/1500) "My Kuribabylon's attack and defense is equal to the total attack and defense of the Kuriboh's used to summon it! 300 times 5 is 1500! Now, I summon Gazel the King of Mythical Beasts!" Yami said as his brown gazel with it's long claws appeared on the field. (1500/1200) "Next I reverse my set Trap. Dark Renewal!" A dark red coffin appeared on Yami's side of the field.
"What does that do?" Seirei asked worried.
"This Trap Card allows me to sacrifice one monster on my side of the field and one monster on either of your sides of the field so that I can bring a Spellcaster back from my Graveyard. So I sacrifice my Gazel and Kouken's Big Shield Gardna in order to summon my Black Magician!" The Coffin opened up and a beam of energy sucked Gazel and Big Shield Gardna into it. The coffin closed and then reopened revealing the Black Magician. "Your Retrained Elven Swordsman may not be able to be destoryed by our monsters with 1900 attack points or over, and you have strengthened him to 1900 so he can't be destoryed by any of our monsters. The problem with your strategy is that the card you used to strengthen it keeps it from switching on guard, which means that we can continue to attack it with our Black Magicians until your life points are depeleated! Now my Black Magicina, attack the Retrained Elven Swordsman!" The Black Magician attacked the Retrained Elven Swordsman and Kouken's Life Points were lowered.
"I can't beleive it, these two are actually starting to come back!" Kouken growled. (L.P. 5000)
"Now, Kuribabylon, attack Seirei's Inaba White Rabbit!" The Kuribabylon attacked Inaba with it's giant horn and Inaba was destroyed.
"No!" Seirei said as her monster blew to pieces. (L.P. 5300)
"That ends my turn," Yami said folding his arms.
"It's my turn!" Kouken said growling as she drew her card. "I activate Graceful Charity, allowing me to draw three cards as long as I discard two!" she said as she as she drew her three cards, she looked at them and then discard two. "Next I will equip the Butterfly Dagger Elma to my Retrained Elven Swordsman, now he is stronger and I won't lose as many life points." The Swordsman put away his sword as the Butterfly Dagger again appeared in his hand. (2200/1200)
"Activating those two Spell Cards just gave me an extra 1000 Life Points," Sdrive said smiling. (L.P. 3400)
"It doesn't matter. Next I will set one monster on guard," she said as her monster appeared on the field. "Now, I will send Retrained Elven Swordsman to destory your Kuribabylon!" The Swordsman ran up to Kuribabylon and slashed it in half.
"Normally I could summon back the Kuriboh Brothers, but since my Black Magician is on the field, I am unable to do so," Yami said as his life points lowered. (L.P. 5500)
"Thats right you can't," Kouken said smiling deviously. Now I end my turn,"
"It's my turn then!" Sdrive called out drawing his card. "I'll set one card under the table, and then summon my Skilled White Magician!" A Magician in White robes appeared on Sdrive's side of the field. (1700/1900) "Now I send my Black Magician to attack Kouken's Swordsman!" The Black Magician attacked the Swordsman and slightly lowered Kouken's Life Points.
"I will only lose 300 Life Points from each of you, where as had you attacked Seirei she would have been greatly reduced," Kouken said as her points dropped by 300. (L.P. 4700)
"Sister, what do you mean by that?" Seirei said as she looked over at Kouken.
"What I mean is he was being stupid, thats what I mean. He had the perfect oppertunity to cause more damage, but he didn't take it."
"Oh, I plan on attacking Seirei," Sdrive said. 'Although I'm not really sure if I want to yet or not,' he thought secretly to himself. "Go Skilled White Magician, attack Seirei!" The White Magician blasted a stream of white magic at Seirei which caused her to let out a small scream.
"That hurt!" she growled as the dark aura got stronger around her. (L.P. 3600)
"Thanks a lot 'sister'," Seirei said. "Because of you he attacked me!"
"It wasn't her," Sdrive said. "I planned on attacking you this entire time. I end my turn."
Seirei drew her card and blew out a sigh of relief, "I activate my own Card of Sanctity allowing us all to draw until we have 6 cards!" she said as she drew 4 cards. Everyone else drew 4 cards as well and Sdrive gained another 500 Life Points. (S.L.P. 3900) "I summon Fushi No Tori!" Seirei said as a purple bird with firey red feathers appeared on her side of the field. The Oricalcos appeared on it's forehead and it got stronger. (1700/0) "Now I activate the Spell Card Pump Up! This card will double my Fushi No Tori's attack power for the turn." Everyone watched as the bird got bigger and glowed white. (3400/0) "Fushi No Tori, attack the Pharaoh's Black Magician!" The bird flapped its wings and the fire from it's wings engulfed the Black Magician and destoryed it.
"You will pay for that," Yami said as his life points decreased. (L.P. 4600)
"Actually, you will," Seirei said smiling. "Because my Fushi No Tori's special ability makes it so that the number of life points you lose, I gain!" Her life points increased and she snickered. "I end my turn, and I discard my Sinister Serpent to the graveyard in order to keep my Spiritual Settle Machine active." (L.P. 4500)
"I also gained Life Points, when you activated Pump Up," Sdrive said. (L.P. 4400)
Yami drew his card and looked down at it, "I told you would pay, and now I'm going to prove it. "I summon Alpha the Magnet Warrior!" The silver monster made of magnets appeared on Yami's side of the field. (1400/1700) "Next I activate Monster Reborn in order to summon back my Beta the Magnet Warrior!" Beta reapeared on the field and was ready for battle along with Sdrive gaining more life points (S.L.P 4900). (Beta: 1700/1600) "Now, since I have Beta and Alpha on the field, and I have Valkyrian and Gama in my hand, I sacrfice Beta, Alpha, from the field and Gama from my hand in order to summon Valkyrian the Magna Warrior!" The Magent warriors appeared on the field and formed all their magnetic pieces together to form Valkyrian the Magna Warrior (3500/3850)
"No!" Kouken growled as she looked at the high attack point monster."
"It's unfortunate for you that it will not be Valkyrian that attacks you," Yami said smiling.
"What do you mean!" Kouken demanded.
"I have a much stronger card in my hand, but I needed my Valkyrian on the field so that I can bring out the correct number of monsters needed to sacrifice for it."
"Awesome!" Sdrive said understanding what Yami was doing.
"Now, Valkyrion, dissasemble into the 3 Magnet warriors!" Yami called out as the larger monster disassembled and the parts returned forming the three seperate Magnet Warriors. "Now, I offer up, Alpha the Magnet Warrior, Beta the Magnet Warrior, and Gama the Magnet Warrior in order to summon the Egyptian God Card, the Winged Dragon of Ra!" the three seperate monsters dissapeared and fire rose up around Yami. The card appeared on the field and then a burst of energy erupted from the card. The orb that contained Ra appeared and Yami began to chant the heratic words written on Ra, once he was done the Winged Dragon of Ra stood before the two other players. (4600/5100)
"No way!" Seirei said looking at the huge creature before her.
"Now I sacrifice 2000 Life Points in order to turn Ra into Egyptian God Phoenix and destory your two monsters!" he shouted at Kouken. (L.P. 3500) Ra transformed into a fiery phoenix and flew towards the Retrained Elven Swordsman and her face down monster. They were both easily destoryed and Yami smirked. Now my Winged Dragon of Ra attack Kouken!" The Winged Dragon of Ra formed a fire ball in its mouth and blasted it at Kouken. Kouken was hit dead on and she was flown back right into the Seal's barrier. She was left with 100 life points.
"Sister, are you alright?" Seirei asked worriedly.
"I'll...be fine." She said as she slowly stood up. (L.P. 100)
"And with that I end my turn," Yami said.
Kouken slowly stood up, breathing heavily. She took the top card from her deck and looked at it. "I set two cards under the table and I set one monster on guard and end my turn," she said as best she could.
Sdrive drew his card and and smiled. "Today isn't your day Kouken! For now I remove White Magician Pikeru and Old Vindictive Magician from my Graveyard to special summon Chaos Sorceror!" The purple sorceror appeared on the field. "I use it's special ability to remove Seirei's Fushi No Tori from the field." The Fushi No Tori was put inside of an energy sphere and dissapeared. "Now, I sacrfice Black Magician, Chaos Sorceror, and Skilled White Magician in order to summon my Egyptian God Card! Sky Dragon of Osirs!" The card appeared and then it too burst out into a blast of energy as the giant red dragon of ancient times appeared on Sdrive's side of the field. Once it was completly there it roared at Kouken. (5000/5000) "I summon my Skilled Black Magican so that it will be able to finish off your Life Points when Osiris gets rid of your face down monster. Osiris does however lose 1000 attack points since there are now 4 cards in my hand, but I don't think that will make too much of a difference. (4000/4000) Go Osiris, attack Kouken's monster with your Thunder Force!" Osiris charged up lightning in it's mouth and then destroyed the monster on Kouken's side of the field. It was another Big Shield Gardna. "Go Skilled Black Magician, finish off her Life Points!" The Skilled Black Magician attacked Kouken but suddenly three monks appeared and a barrier was set in place.
"I activated Hallowed Life Barrier," Kouken said. "I discard my Twin Swords of Flashing Light Trice to keep my life points safe."
"You and I both know it won't matter," Sdrive said with an angry look in his eye. "I end my turn."
Seirei looked up at the two god monsters on her opponents sides of the field. 'There is nothing we can do to win,' she thought to herself as she drew her card. "I bring back Sinister Serpent from my grave yard and end my turn rediscarding it."
"Then it's my turn," Yami said as he drew his card. "Winged Dragon of Ra, attack Kouken!" He cried out. The Winged Dragon formed it's fire ball and blasted it at Kouken. Suddenly the monks reappeared and the barrier appeared again.
"I activated my second Hallowed Life Barrier," she said as she discarded her Rod of Silence.
"I end my turn," Yami said as Kouken slowly drew her card.
"I pass, there is nothing I can do," she said.
Sdrive drew his card and Osiris grew back to a 5000. "Skilled Black Magician attack Kouken, depleate her Life Points!" The Skilled Black shot it's black magic at Kouken and it slammed into her. Her life points reduced to 0. Suddenly the Seal of Oricalcos began to glow and it shrank so that it was only underneath Kouken. It shot up in a beam of light as Kouken screamed. When it dissapeared Kouken fell limp to the ground.
The mark of the Oricalcos dissappeared from Seireis forhead and she clutched her head. "I can't beleive it," she said almost in tears. "I can't beleive the Seal of Oricalcos took her soul!"
"Seirei," Sdrive said slowly, walking towards her.
"Its not possible," Seirei said in tears. She hung her head low, "Why, why did she force me to play this damn card? I know what I have to do." She looked up at Sdrive who was coming towards her. "Your Sky Dragon of Osiris has 5000 attack points, and I have 4500 Life Points. When you attack, its all over. I would rather not feel that pain, even though I deserve too." She stood up and placed her hand on her duel disk. "I give up, there is nothing I can do. I'm sorry Sdrive, I saw you a few times during the tournament but didn't realize you were the one we would be dueling. I liked you, I thought you were awesome at Duel Monsters. And once I saw you here, I realized that no matter what, someone was going to get hurt badly. The cards you need for the finals are up on the altar. I'm sorry for the way I treated you during this duel." After those words her body fell limp.
"I just got one more reason to fight Sayora," Sdrive said as the holographic images dissapeared. Yami went over to the alter and got the cards they needed while Sdrive took the Seal of Oricalcos out of Seirei's Duel Disk. "This is supposed to be the card I get for beating her," he looked down at it and saw that Kouken's image was on the card. "I wouldn't use this even if it was the last option." Suddenly a dark fog appeared around the room. Sdrive and Yami could feel their bodies being moved. When the fog cleared they were right outside of the house they had entered.
"We are outside of the house," Yami said amazed.
Sdrive looked down at his hand and noticed that the Seal of Oricalcos was no longer in his hand. "The Seal of Oricalcos is gone!" Sdrive said shocked.
"It's better off not messed around with," Yami said. He handed Sdrive the cards he needed and then he picked up Kouken. "Come on, we have to get these two to the hospital and then we have to get to the Battle Tower." Sdrive nodded and picked up Seirei. They carried them on their backs and began to run to the hospital.
Sayora was sitting down inside of a large room at the top of the Battle Tower. In her hand she held the Seal of Oricalcos with Kouken's image on it. She smiled, "Sorry Labiathon, but you don't get to keep this soul," she said as she held up her hand and a small white orb came out of the card. The image of Kouken dissapeared and Sayora ripped the card. She opened a drawer and took out a golden hour glass with the Sennen Symbol on it. The hourglass absorbed the white orb and it glowed for a second.
Sayora stood up and walked over to a small closet, she took a light blue Kimono and changed into it. She walked back to the hourglass and placed it inside the Kimono. "I am now ready to pay a little visit to certaint Tomb Robber about a certaint Eye," she said smiling deviously.
Sdrive: How was that? I hope you all liked it. I think this is one of my favorite chapters. The duel wasn't all that bad, considering I knew almost nothing about Spirit Monsters and Guardian Cards when I started it. Well, I guess its time for the Reviews.
Zenryo: But, I like reving a dead god over and over and over! Well, not really, but who cares. Well ya know what, I turned you into a semi nice guy. Sorry for not being in Hell today. But I'll be there tomorrow and I'll give you the Mystic Plasma Zones then when you give me CHOBITS! -wild eyed lop sided grin-
Peace: CHOBITS!...anyway, I had a WHOLE ammount of things to say about your review, but after some recent events, I just don't care. If you don't like it, go bring it up to Mamimi herself, you know her SN, and if needed, I'll give you her e-mail, but I think I've already told you everything I've had to say. Now then, also on the Subject of Mamimi, she does NOT have 2 rare cards, if you remember out side of the hospital she was winning a duel, plus, think about it, a lot of other duelists we haven't seen duel and yet THEY are going to be in the finals. I'm saving it for the finals, don't worry about it. And...I can't think of anything else to say here except CHOBITS!
Lgmk: One of these days I would REALLY like to know what Lgmk stands for, maybe I should just ask you when I see you online, oh well. I gave you Sdrive and as an added bonus, Yami! Plus two totally original characters with really cool decks. I realize Mamimi hasn't really dueled that much, but thats also because I gave her a deck that I thought would be good, and the more I look at it the more I realize it needs changed DESPERATLY! So...yeah.
Reaver of Heaven: I don't hate lock ins, it ws just really tired. And we stayed there all night, we didn't need a ride home. Yeah, I hate the ParaDorks as much as the next guy. Hopefully this tag team match up was better, two magician masters against an old power, with deck designs not normally seen played. Well, hope to hear from you again.
Otaku Sarri: Its best if I probably don't say anything about this right now.
Sdrive: I know I know, What could Sayora be planning? Why is she after the Eye? What are her Motives, who will win? It's going to be a special 5 chapter mini arch I like to call...Not Really a 5 Chapter Mini Arch! No, but seriously, keep watching as Bakura and Sayora battle it out in the Shadow Realm, and we all get to see a sneak peak at Sayora's dueling capabilities.
Power to the Hikari's
P.S. Ok, if any of you have been reading Sky Top Duelists you'll know that I have started giving out CPC's Couch Potato Credits. I'm giving 25 CPC's to anyone who can guess Sayora's deck design. The only person I won't give them to is possbily Peace since I think I already told him, if I didn't well then go right ahead Peace, but if I didn't, then please don't answer. However, if you can hold yourself back and not critize my grammer today, I.E. Its and It's, then I will give you 10 CPC's. Just because I don't want you to feel left out and possibly not criticizing my grammer and spelling will be harder for you than guessing Sayora's deck design lol.
Power to the Hikari's
P.S.S. CHOBITS!
Kyoshen: Don't ask, he's been like this since he started reading Chobits.
Sdrive: CHOBITS!
