Hey, it's Luigi777 back for another chapter of duels. Sorry about the slow duel, I'll have it gone soon. Please review, and read my other story, A Tale of Destiny, under the Adventure Quest (Games). And now let's get on with the next chapter of:
The Element Duelists!
The Slime and the Paladin
"Alright, my turn!" Jordon called as he drew a card. He smiled and looked at Derek. "Time for some payback!" Suddenly, a shadow of an old goblin lady behind a dressing room appeared on the field. Luke stared in disgust. Michael gaped.
"I play enchanting dressing room! This lets me draw 4 cards and show them to you. All the three star normal monsters are summoned to the field, while all the others are destroyed." The four cards appeared before Luke and Michael. Luke was now the one gaping. 3 of them were 1 stars, Gigabyte (350/250), Moki-Moki (300/200) and Jinzo #7 (350/200). The last card was a mere jar of greed.
"Ok, so I lose my jar of greed and get to add the other 3 monsters to the field. And then…" Jordon grinned "I'm going to tribute them all to summon 'foob, the magical gloop' (0/0)!
Luke stared as a huge pile of toxic waste like stuff that now emerged from the card Jordon played. Luke simply smiled, "You didn't' notice the fact that it has 0 attack power, did you? You really are stupid."
Michael grinned too. "Yeah, we can take down a card with 0 attack power any day!"
Jordon grinned "Or can you?" The huge pile of gloop suddenly engulfed The Flaming warrior. The warrior vanished among the muck "Don't you understand! Every turn my monster consumes another card while you can only attack it with three star or below monsters!"
Pure terror shook Luke as he watched the gloop slide back and forth. Michael watched his friend. "We'll beat this thing!" he called, "I'll draw. I'll play Sobek's Assailant in defense (1300/1700)! Now I'll use its ability to discard a dark from my hand to randomly destroy one card from yours!" he yelled as he pointed at Derek. They saw a fushion weapon flash by before it went to the graveyard. "Looks like my turn is over."
Derek had been silently watching them all with senseless eyes. They now lit up, staring at his two enemies. "You're both amateurs!" he roared as he drew a card. "I set one card face-down then summon Harold, the first paladin (1850/1400)! Now, rid the field of the enemy's 'Great General'!"
"Not quite!" Luke called as his first face-down card came up. "I'm activating Rush Recklessly! This will increase one monster ATK by 700! And I'm choosing…" Luke paused, staring at him grinning, "Your paladin as the target! (2550/1400)"
"Huh" Derek said sweating.
"Eh?" Jordan stated, confused.
"But that's not all!" Luke roared, his other face-down card flipping face up. "I'm also playing ring of destruction too! This will destroy your monster and deal it's ATK to everyone's LP!"A ring of fire suddenly engulfed the Paladin before the ring exploded, effecting everyone around.
Luke's LP: 1450
Derek's LP: 1450
Michael's LP: 1250
Jordon's LP: 0000
"No…" Jordon stared at the now fading slime. He had beaten it before his turn had even come. He nodded at Derek. "Looks like you've got it from here…" He said with his head down as walked away quickly.
Derek shrugged, "Looks like I get to beat both of you at once."
Luke grinned. "Don't forget you've lost your Paladin too." He was right. The Paladin had vanished with the ring.
"It won't matter."
"Wha?" Luke gaped. "What do you mean? We each get to attack you now that you're wide open. You lost your only defense!" That's when Luke noticed another Paladin had appeared. It stood taller than the just killed one but it had the same armor. "What the!"
"That's right!" Derek was the one now grinning, "When my Harold was killed in a non-battle way, he lets me summon George, the great paladin (2450/1450)! And now, I'll continue with the attack his mentor had tried! Attack!" The huge axe in the paladin's hands sliced Frago in half. "And then I'll set a card face-down and end."
"Dang." Luke sighed. Michael looked frustrated. "Alright, looks like it's my go! I'll draw." He placed his hand on a card. "I'll activate Warrior Extermination! This will destroy all warriors on the field, including yours!" George fell down, as the card behind was destroyed.
"You fool."
"You what!" Michael stated. "I just killed your trump card!" Once again, an even taller Paladin, holding a huge sword of pure white appeared. "Uh oh, not again".
"That's right!" Derek's eyes lit up, his hair swirling, "By destroying my card with a non-designating magic or trap card, you've let me summon my strongest card, Arthur, the Last Paladin (4900/3900)!"
Michael stared. Luke surveyed it. He knew now. This was the final test before they could become Element Duelists!
Luke's LP: 1450
Derek's LP: 1450
Michael's LP: 1250
Jordon's LP: LOSE
Oh no, who will win? Will Luke and Michael finally join the Element Duelists? And who are they anyway?
Thank you for reading, please review and I'll see you again for the next chapter of THE ELEMENT DUELISTS!
