Author's note.
Sorry if I haven't touched this in a while, I just got caught up in things and I had a writers block for this story. But, I got something now, so, uh, enjoy. Oh, and don't forget to leave a review.
Chapter 14
Charlie vs Iggy
Charlie POV.
Things were going smoothly for us. Fredrick won our first duel of the tournament, but Allie lost hers to Declan's brother Riley. I felt kinda bad for her and I knew how it felt to work so hard for something, only to be disappointed. So, I got an ice cream for her. I also met Fredrick and Ally's families. When Ally's mother saw me sad while I looked them, she asked me why I was so sad. I had to say that Ally and Fredrick looked happy with families that supported them, unlike mine. I told them about my rehabilitation idea and they basically said that I was an angel, right before hugging me.
In Hell.
Angel Dust kicked the door of the hotel open and everyone ran out.
"Ya know", said Baxter. "Maybe one of us should stay here incase she comes back".
"Nah-ah, no way Baxter", said Vaggie. "This is an intervention. We ALL gotta go".
"What's the fastest way to the Goetia Palace?" Asked Angel Dust.
"Oh, you should take Hexington" answered Baxter.
"BAXTER!" Shouted Vaggie.
"Okay, WE should take Hexington" said Baxter as he slowly walked out.
"What about killmenrow?" Asked Nifty.
"Nah, it goes two ways", said Husker. "You can't time the lights". They then ran as fast as their legs could carry them. However, they were unaware that a girl with pasty, white skin and one singular eye was watching them.
"Am I really gonna follow them to the living world?", she asked herself. "Of course I am, or my name isn't Cherri Bomb". She then ran after them. Vaggie and the others ran through pentagram city, even knocking over other residents.
"Hey guys!", shouted Angel Dust. "Look!". He was pointing to in a store playing the ARC League. They had just finished playing the duel between Yuya and Sylvio and Yuya came out on top.
P.O.V end.
Back at the ARC League.
The crowd was cheering for Yuya as he won and Charlie, Seviathan, Helsa and Octavia came to congratulate him. "Way to kick that bastard down a few feet" said Helsa. She and Yuya then butt-bumped.
"Good show" said Octavia before hi-fiving Yuya.
"Way to play Yuya" said Seviathan giving a fist-knock. Charlie then went up and hugged him.
"You were great Yuya" said Charlie. Yuya couldn't help but blush at this. This was short lived, as Sylvio stormed up to them.
"YOU!" He shouted pointing at Charlie.
"Me?" Charlie asked pointing to herself.
"You must've done something", said Sylvio. "There's no way Yuya could beat my new deck".
"What do you think I did?" Asked Charlie.
"You must've stacked his deck so that he would get all his good cards", answered Sylvio. "I had my friends spy on you and they over heard that you gave him something".
"Yeah, my best wishes" said Charlie.
"Unlikely story", said Sylvio as he grabbed Charlie. "Now where is it?". Sylvio's hands were going all over her.
"Hey, get off me!" Shouted Charlie. Sylvio then felt something on his shoulder.
"Let her go Sylvio" demanded Yuya.
"And who's gonna make me?" Asked Sylvio mockingly. He then reached out again and Yuya grabbed his hand. A menacing aura came off of Yuya as several symbols appeared on his body and his hair stood up.
"I said", Yuya growled. "Let. Her. Go!". With a sudden jerk, Yuya broke Sylvio's arm as he screamed in agony. Yuya then spun him around and around until he released it and Sylvio was flung into the wall with a sickening crunch. He then fell off the wall. But, Yuya then stomped on his face a total of 4 times. Just then, he aura disappeared and Yuya returned to normal.
"Uh, what happened?" Asked Yuya.
Back in hell.
Vaggie and the others were shocked by what they saw.
"Were those" said Mimzie.
"They were Sim symbols", said Vaggie. "Double time everyone".
'Up next is Charlie Magne of the You Show Duel School vs Iggy Arlo of the Bandit Warrior Academy'.
"Angel, get your phone out", said Vaggie. "And give us the play-by-play". Angel then grabbed his phone and started to look for the duel. They then continued to run.
Back at the ARC League.
Yuya was in the men's locker room.
"What the hell happened to me?", he asked himself. "I remember Sylvio harassing Charlie, then, nothing". Yuya then walked out of the locker room and saw Charlie waiting for him.
"I came to say, thank you" said Charlie with a smile.
"Well, uh, you're welcome" said Yuya. He then headed back to the stands. As Charlie walked her way to the arena, Helsa and Seviathan caught up with her.
"Listen, Charlie", said Helsa. "From what I heard, these bandit bastards are ruthless, so, ya gotta act like ya own the place. Basically, act like the Princess of Hell". Charlie then smirked.
"Now everyone, it's time for the next match", said Nico. "First, it's the fallen angel herself, the princess of the seven rings. Charliiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeee Magneeeeeeeeeeeeee!". Charlie then walked out onto the field as people were cheering and calling her name. She couldn't help but smile as she waved to the crowd.
"Next up, the Bandit Warrior Academy's star, Iggy Arlo". Iggy then walked onto the field. The action field that was chosen was Bamboo forest. We said the duelling motto and our Duel Began.
Charlie: 4000
Iggy: 4000
"I hope you don't mind, but Ladies first", said Charlie drawing the top card of her beck. "I play the spell card, Offerings to The Seven Rings. With this card, I can send three 'Seven Rings' monsters from my hand to the graveyard to draw three cards from my deck". She then placed three cards in her graveyard and drew the top three cards of her deck.
"Next comes the effects of the monsters I discarded", said Charlie. "First is Barong, who let's me special summon a monster from my hand. And I choose Gremory of The Seven Rings". Charlie's monster was a woman in blue and white robes riding a camel in the kind of robes.
Gremory of The Seven Rings
Level: 5
Attribute: Fire
Type: Fiend
ATK: 2400
DEF: 2000
"Next come Ala's effect", said Charlie. "It summon's itself from the grave". Charlie's new monster was a demon made out of wood, sticks, leaves and stumps.
Ala of the Seven Rings
Level: 7
Attribute: Earth
Type: Fiend
ATK: 2800
DEF: 2600
"Finally it's Ukobach's effect", said Charlie. "So, I can now add Three cards with 'Seven Rings' in their name or text". Three cards then popped out of Charlie's deck and she placed them in her hand.
"You better hope that those cards are good", said Iggy. "Because if they aren't then you won't even be worth my time". That one simple line took Charlie back to her interview with Katie Killjoy and all the laughing that was directed at her.
"How's about THIS for being worth your time", said Charlie. "I summon Beleth of The Seven Rings". Charlie's new monster was a demon who had hair all over it's head and wore a long back rob and three horns on it's head.
Beleth of The Seven Rings
Level: 4
Attribute: Dark
Type: Spellcaster
ATK: 1900
DEF: 1200
Back in Hell.
"So, what's going on?" Asked Vaggie.
"Charlie summoned three monsters in one turn, that's what's going on" answered Angel Dust.
"Really?" Asked Vaggie.
"Yeah, and it's the first turn of the duel" added Angel Dust.
"How'd she learn to do that?" Asked Nifty.
"Questions later", said Vaggie. "More running". They then continued to run.
Back at the duel.
"I place three cards facedown and end my turn" said Charlie. She then ran away, looking for an action card.
"Come on, where is it?" Charlie pondered to herself. She then saw an Action Card on the side of a bamboo tree. As she ran towards it, Iggy jumped out of the shadows and tried to tackle her. Charlie saw this however and jumped out of the way. Iggy then landed on the floor with a skid. As Charlie landed back on the ground and one of her feet then landed on Iggy's hand. Given that Charlie had had heels on her shoes, it dug into Iggy's hand, causing him to yelp in pain. Charlie then took the action card and placed it in her hand.
"Why are you wearing heeled shoes?" Groaned Iggy, holding his now bruised hand.
"Didn't you know that girls can run in heels?" Asked Charlie.
"You'll regret that", said Iggy as he drew the top card of his deck. "Since there are monsters on your field, I can summon Hayate the Earth Star". Iggy's monster was a samurai-like warrior wearing a wolf pelt on his head.
Hayate the Earth Star
Level: 5
Attribute: Earth
Type: Warrior
ATK: 2100
DEF: 0
"Oooh, 2100 attack points", said Helsa mockingly. "Whatever shall Charlie do?".
"Kick his dick in that's what" answered Octavia.
"Hayate!", shouted Iggy. "Attack Beleth!" . Hayate then slammed it's staff onto Beleth and destroyed it. But Charlie's life points didn't go down.
"How come your life points didn't go down?" Asked Iggy.
"It's because of my trap card", answered Charlie. "Blessing of the Seven Princes. Since a 'Seven Rings' monster was destroyed in battle, I can increase my life points by the amount of that monster. So, thanks for 1900 extra life points".
Charlie: 4000 + 1900 = 5900
'Whoa, looks like Charlie really showed Iggy what-for. How will Iggy come back from this?".
"I'll place his facedown and end my turn" said Iggy.
"Then it's my turn" said Charlie drawing the top card of her deck.
In Hell.
"It's Charlie's turn again" said Angel Dust.
"Do you know what cards she has?" Asked Vaggie.
"Sorry, but I can't see her cards" said Angel Dust.
Back at the Arc League.
"I play my spell card, Roar of Satan", said Charlie. "Now, I can tribute one monster to inflict it's attack points as damage to you. So, I tribute Gremory, so say goodbye to 2400 life points". Gremory then turned into energy and then flung itself at Iggy before it struck him. The force blew Iggy back quite a bit. As he flew, he skidded on his arms, face, butt and back. When he eventually stopped, his clothes had gained tears and a cut was on his cheek.
"I'll place a card facedown and end my turn" said Charlie. She then ran as fast as she could to find an action card and saw on a bamboo stump. But, Iggy placed her in a choke hold. As he tightened his grip, Charlie started to cough. She then bit on Iggy's arm, with her true form's sharp teeth. Iggy screamed in pain as he released Charlie. Charlie then took the action card and then sent the one she already had in her hand to the graveyard.
"You're gonna pay for that", said Iggy. "Since I have an Earth monster, I can summon Tenma the Sky Star from my hand without tributing". Iggy's new monster was a samurai wearing a horse pelt.
Tenma the Sky Star
Level: 5
Attribute: Light
Type: Warrior
ATK: 2100
DEF: 0
"Next, I play Polymerisation", said Iggy. "I'll use it to fuse Tenma and Hayate to fusion summon, Idaten the Conqueror Star". Iggy's new monster was samurai warrior carrying a trident.
Idaten the Conqueror star
Level: 10
Attribute: Light
Type: Warrior
ATK: 3000
DEF: 2200
In Hell.
"Oh boy" said Angel Dust.
"What's wrong?" Asked Mimzie.
"That Iggy bastard summoned a monster with over 3000 attack points" answered Angel Dust.
"What?!" Shouted Vaggie.
Back at the Arc League.
"So what's this guy's deal?" Asked Charlie.
"He has two special abilities", said Iggy. "The first is that it gains 200 attack points for every card I discard from my hand. So, I discard 4, so he gains 800".
Idaten the Conqueror Star
ATK: 3000 + 800 = 3800
"3800 attack points!" Shouted Charlie in shock.
"And here's the real kicker", said Iggy. "When he's involved in a battle with a monster with a lower level, that monster's attack points become 0".
Ala of the Seven Rings
ATK: 2800 - 2800 = 0
In Hell.
"Oh shit, she's in trouble" said Angel Dust. The others soon looked over Angel Dust's shoulders and watched the video.
Charlie knew she had to find an action card and she did, but Iggy tackled her to the ground and Idaten destroyed Ala.
Charlie: 5900 - 3800 = 2100
Iggy had Charlie in another chokehold and was starting to add pressure.
"Face it, Charlie", said Iggy. "The You Show style is out dated and no one is ever gonna give two shits about it when you lose". Suddenly, something popped out of Charlie's head and stabbed Iggy in the eye, causing him to scream in agony and hold his eye. Blood gushed out of his eye, much to the shock of the audience.
"Now, that's better" said a demonic voice. Everyone then stared at Charlie and saw that she had changed. She now had sharp claws on her hands, two horns had ripped out of her head, her teeth had grown sharp, her eyes had turned blood red, her irises turned yellow and her pupils had become slit. Iggy and the audience could only stare in terror at the Charlie's new appearance.
"What's the matter Iggy?", asked Charlie. "Are ya finished? Good. Because I play the trap card Seven Rings Blood Rain". Red clouds then covered the sky and it started to rain blood. Yet, no one got wet.
"This rain overflows with power", said Charlie as a large puddle of it formed on the ground. "Including the ability to bring back monsters from beyond the grave. And I choose Ala". Her monster then rose up from the blood.
"Next, I play Summon Circle of The Seven Rings", said Charlie. "With it, I can target one monster on the field and can summon a 'Seven Rings' monster from my deck. And I choose Alastor of The Seven Rings". Her new monster was demon with a monstrous goat/deer carrying two swords and had an axe on his back.
Alastor of the Seven Rings
Level: 7
Type: Fiend
Attribute: Dark
ATK: 2800
DEF: 2300
Back in Hell.
"If that's supposed to be you, Alastor", said Angel Dust. "They didn't catch your-".
"Shut it", said Vaggie. "I'm trying to listen".
"Charlie now has two level 7 monsters" said Yuya.
"I now Overlay both Ala and Alastor", said Charlie performing the summon, the only difference is that the energy went into a pentagram instead of a vortex. "With these two monsters, I build the Overlay Network! The horned lady of Pride and Lust! Show thyself and give these fools something crave before they cower before you! I XYZ SUMMON! LILITH! FIRST LADY OF THE SEVEN RINGS!". Dark mist then began to pour from the pentagram as a figure stood up from the smoke. That figure turned out to be a very beautiful woman. She had lavender skin and magenta eyes with pink pupils. Her eyes were outlined in black and she had long, flowing blonde hair. But, the most notable thing about her, was her attire. She wore what looked to be combination of scales and armour. She wore a crown that went around her face with two long horns curved backwards. She had a long black cape that appeared to be made out of black flames and she carried a long broad sword that she now rested on her shoulder.
Lilith First Lady of The Seven Rings
Rank: 7
Overlay Units: 2
Type: Fiend
Attribute: Dark
ATK: 3900
DEF: 3500
Everyone in the audience gasped at this.
"She just her mom" Octavia said to herself.
'Oh my! Look at that monster! Let's hope it's got what Charlie needs to win".
"I activate one of Lilith's abilities", said Charlie. "Since I have at least 2 'Seven Rings' monsters in my Graveyard, I can target one monster on the field and she gain gain that monster's special abilities for herself and negate them for my opponent" Lilith then kissed Idaten, who blushed.
"It doesn't matter", said Iggy. "You only got one card in your hand and even if you do attack, I'll still have life points left". Charlie just stared at Iggy before giving him a smirk full of sharp teeth.
"Oh, trust me, Iggy", said Charlie. "By the time this turn is over, you won't. I activate Sanctity and Demise! Thanks to this spell, I can now draw until I'm holding six cards in my hand. But, after six turns, any cards in my hand go to the graveyard". Charlie then drew the top six cards of her deck.
"Now, since Lilith has Idaten's abilities, I think I might use them", said Charlie. "So, I'll send five cards to graveyard to give her an extra 1000 attack points".
Lilith First Lady of The Seven Rings
ATK: 3900 + 1000 = 4900
"Now for Lilith's second ability", said Charlie. "By using an Overlay Unit, I can give every monster on your field one Cursed Counter for every Rank or Level they have. And I count 10". One of the overlay units disappeared into Lilith's crown and her eyes began to glow. Soon, then crowns of thorns were placed all over Idaten.
"And here's the real punishment for ya", said Charlie. "For every Cursed Counter your monster has, Lilith gains 200 attack points".
Lilith First Lady of The Seven Rings
ATK: 4900 + 2000 = 6900
"6900 attack points!" Shouted Iggy.
"And she's gonna use them all now!", shouted Charlie. "GO LILITH! ATTACK IDATEN THE CONQUEROR STAR WITH YOUR CURSED BLADE!". Lilith then charged forward and slashed Idaten with her sword, destroying him. She then charged towards Iggy and stabbed him straight through the guts. This caused Iggy to cough up his own blood and caused the audience to either gasp or scream.
Iggy: 4000 - 3900 = 100
"Next, I play Battleground Decor", said Charlie. "Since the battle phase just ended, you now take 100 points of damage for every monster that was destroyed".
Iggy: 100 - 100 = 0
Charlie: Winner
"How?" Groaned Iggy.
"Simple", answered Charlie. "I'm better than you". Iggy then fell to the floor as blood trickled out of him. The field then disappeared as did any monsters. Charlie started to walk away. As she did, her appearance returned to normal. Iggy then noticed that he was healing. As he got up, he fel his body all over.
"HOLY SHIT!", shouted Iggy. "My wounds are healed!". He then looked at Charlie.
"What is with that girl?" Asked Iggy.
In hell.
"Uh-oh" said Vaggie.
