Chapter 6: Jaden vs. Bastian-Part 1

"Time for the next match!" Announced Crowler. "The next duel shall be between Jaden Yuki from Slifer Red and Bastian Misawa from Ra Yellow!" There was a loud cheer from all sides of the stadium. Jaden and Bastian walked up onto the platform where the duel was going to be held.

"I hope you're ready to lose, Bastian! This won't be like the last time we dueled!"

"I have a feeling you're right, but you will lose just the same!" Bastian replied in his British accent.

"Let's duel!" They said in unison.

"I'll go first! I summon Elemental Hero Sparkman in attack mode! Then I'll play Skyscrapper! Now, when ever my E-Hero's attack or get attacked by a monster that's stronger, that E-Hero gains 1000 attack points! Then I'll throw down, two face downs!"

"My turn! I play Solar Flare Dragon! Then, I'll play the card known as Solar Energy! I can only use this if I have a face up Solar Flare Dragon on my side of the field. I can pay 1000 life points to special summon another dragon! So, you will not only lose 1000 at the end of my turns, but you can't attack any Pyro monsters as long as I have two SFD's on the field. I'll then place two cards face down and I end my turn and you lose 1000 life points!"

Life Points: 3000 all

Solar Flare Dragon/4/1500/1000/Fire/Pyro/Effect: This card cannot be attacked if there is another Pyro-Type monster on your side of the field. This card inflicts 500 points of damage to your opponent's Life Points during the end phase of your turn.

"Not bad, Bastian. Let's see you handle this! I reveal Polymerization! So I'll merge Clayman and Sparkman together to create Thunder Giant! Now I'll discard my Elemental Hero Necroshade to destroy one of your Solar Flare Dragons! That means I can attack your remaining monster!"

"I'll activate the trap card known as Inferno Healing! This can only be used if a Pyro monster was destroyed as a result of battle! Now instead of losing life points, I'll gain what I would have lost!"

Jaden: 3000/Bastian: 3900

"Plus, I get to draw one card equal to the level of that monster! So I draw four cards!"

"All right, then. I'll play Card of Sanctity! So now we both draw until we have six cards! Next I'll summon Winged Kuriboh in defense mode! Then I'll play Transcendent Wings! So I sacrifice Winged Kuriboh and discard Avian and Wild Heart to special summon Winged Kuriboh Lv 10! That ends my turn with a face down."

"Impressive, but it's my turn now! Jaden, you're about to meet the king of all fire! I reveal Burning Passion! This is how it works, I remove from play one card in my graveyard to special summon any number of Pyro monsters from my graveyard! So I bring out my two Solar Flare Dragons! Then, I sacrifice them both to summon -Infernal Flame Emperor-! So now I remove from play my one of my dragons to destroy your field spell!"

-Infernal Flame Emperor/9/2700/1600/Fire/Pyro/Effect: This card cannot be Special Summoned. When this card is Tribute Summoned successfully, you can remove from play up to 5 FIRE monsters in your graveyard. Destroy a number of Spell or Trap Cards on the field equal to the number of cards that you remove from play by this effect.-

"Now, I remove from play my Solar Flare Dragon to special summon 'Spirit of Flames'!"

'Spirit of Flames/4/1700/1000/Fire/Pyro/Effect: This card cannot be normal summoned or set. This card can only be special summoned by removing from play one Fire attribute monster in your graveyard. Increase this card's attack by 300 during your battle phase.'

What will happen now? How can Jaden stand up to these two powerful monsters? Especially when Bastian's face down card is a trap that will cancel out the effect of Winged Kuriboh Lv 10? Find out next time.

Disclaimer:

Me: Jaden, would you do the honors my friend?

Jaden: Sure. Rikupendragon doesn't own Yu-Gi-Oh GX or the characters. There are some cards he does own, but the other ones are property of the Yu-Gi-Oh GX creators.

Me: I also own the story of this fan fiction. It's just a coincidence that it is almost similar to the more recent episodes of the series that take place after the Shadow Riders series.

Both: WE HOPE YOU HAVE ENJOYED THIS CHAPTER! MORE WILL COME TOMMOROW! YAY!
