The Second Best

He always wanted to be in Obelisk Blue (because blue is his favorite color) but he got in Ra Yellow. His room was bigger than Slifer Red. It had no fungi growing on the walls or anything like that. The kid had Blonde hair, blue eyes and he was short about 5"2. He was a very talkative person.

"I was lucky that I got a weak opponent for my entry duel," he said.

"I got the headmaster's assistant," bragged Denholm "Hey what's your name." He had forgot to ask "Mine is Denholm Raign."

"I'm Demetri Curt."

"Oh ok, anyway bye I'm gonna check out campus."

"Can I come Den," said Demetri, "I can call you Den right?"

"Yeah whatever, come on."

"Hey, where you going?" this voice wasn't Demetri's it was some Obelisk Blue's.

"Checking out campus."

Oh, well I have a question for you, how did you beat Bennet, the headmaster's assistant?" Denholm just shrugged and walked past the Obelisk Blue. The Obelisk Blue had brown hair and brown eyes. He had wrinkles on the bridge of his nose when he was angry. "You're not going anywhere, understand, because I want to duel you and see your deck."

"You got a duel, sorry Demetri couldn't back out of the duel," said Denholm.

"It's ok, I'll just read or something."

"We're going to duel in the duel arena for Obelisk blue, tonight" said George as though he were lying. Demetri didn't here this.

That night Denholm and George Crech (the Obelisk Blue's name) were walking to the building with the three colors representing the dorms. The red color on a short pole the next on a bigger and the blue one on a the biggest. The building had a duel arena where Denholm thought they were going. Instead of turning right George went on and stopped at a wall and looked both ways and opened a secret passageway. "My dad built it when he was here, it's for duelists who want to duel at night, it's like a club." The club was yellow, blue, and red. There were people dueling and people eating. The room was humongous, it could fit about eight hundred people. The club had twenty tables and four chairs at each table. There was a restaurant like section to the left of where there standing and a card shop selling every pack sold in the world.

"Wow."

"Well than lets duel," announced George.

"I thought I would never get here, when I was a kid I lost against every person I could imagine, even my sister. Then is when I started to build a very good deck made cards I bought and traded for."

Good but let's duel," said George who looked uninterested. The other people in the large yellow, blue and red room weren't interested either. They probably knew that George would win but they wanted to know how bad the other kid would lose, so they turned their heads and watched. "You go first ok."

"You got it, I draw," announced Denholm. "I'll summon a monster in defense and put a card face down and end my turn.

"My turn then, I'll activate polymerization and fuse two e-heroes Sparkman and Clayman to make e-hero Thunder Giant (2400/1500)." Electric and clay e-heroes were sucked into a swirling circle and making a monster that had a yellow top and a blue bottom. It had a ring like thing in the center of its chest and it had gigantic arms with big claws. The monster wore a half mask. "This monster has a cool ability, I can give just one card and destroy any card on the field that has less attack than my monster. How is that? Now I discard one card to destroy your monster." The monster was Spirit of The Harp (800/2000) it was destroyed by the strong monster. Spirit of The Harp was also wearing yellow and it was playing a melodious tune when it was destroyed. "Since that wasn't my attack I attack with Thunder Giant." It attacked reducing Denholm's life points to 1400. "I'll end my turn

"Then it's mine," said Denholm. "I'll activate monster reborn to reborn my monster Spirit of The Harp (800/2000). Then I'll activate Shield and Sword. This card switches our attack points and makes it our defense points and vise-versa. So your Thunder Giant attack is 1500 and defense is 2400. My Spirit of The Harp becomes 2000 attack and 800 defense. Now Spirit of The Harp attack Thunder Giant." George's life points became 3500. "then I'll activate Black Pendant and equip it to my Spirit of The Harp and activate Dian Keto The Cure Master. Now Shield and Swords effect is gone when my turn is ended. Your turn now."

"Very good you took 500 points of damage out of the second best duelist," boasted George, "It's my turn so I draw, I'll put a card facedown in defense and end my turn."

"My turn, I summon Zure, Knight of The Dark World (1800/1600). A knight with horn like ears and spiked hair. The monster was wielding a sword and had long cape. Now Zure attack that facedown." The facedown was wroughtweiler (800/1200). Wroughtweiler was a dog.

"Now wroughtweiler's ability activates. When it's destroyed it lets me bring back an e-hero and a polymerization to my hand so I pick Sparkman and polymerization."

"Now Spirit of The Harp (1300/2000) attack! This attack reduced George's lifepoints to 2200. I'll end my turn."

"I'll draw and I activate polymerization to polymerize e-heroes Sparkman and Clayman to bring back an old friend, Thunder Giant (2400/1500)." Now activate your effect, thunder Giant, destroy Zure. Now attack Spirit of The Harp. This attack reduced Denholm's life points to 300. The both monsters were reduced to pixels while Thunder Giant stand there with no effort to defeat anyone of the monsters Denholm had. Was Denholm going to loose?

Then suddenly George' lifepoints decreased by 500, making it 1700. "What happened?"

"Black Pendant happened, said Denholm. When you destroy Black Pendant you lose 500 lifepoints."

"Not bad, I'll end my turn."

"It's my turn then," said Denholm while drawing a card. I'll put a card facedown in defense and end my turn." A card horizontally appeared.

"My turn," announced George while drawing. "This time I can't activate Giant's effect so I'll attack with Thunder and destroy your facedown. The facedown was Swarm of Scarabs (500/1000). A swarm of brown and black scarabs (Egypt's famous bug).

"Not so fast Swarm of Scarabs effect activates when it's flipped and destroyed I can destroy a monster. I choose Thunder Giant."

"Smart!" said exclaimed George "I activate Dian Keto the Cure Master increasing my life points to 2700 and end my turn.

"My turn," said Denholm when George gestured that he was done. "I'll summon Gemini Elf (1900/900). There were two monsters a boy elf and a girl elf. The boy elf's hand was resting on the girl elf's shoulder. They both had marks on there faces. Then I'll activate the spell Double Attack. Double Attack had a Marauding Captain chopping up an Inpachi. By giving up a monster that has a higher attack than Gemini elf this card can attack twice. I give up Blue-eyes and now Gemini Elf attack twice." This attack reduced George's lifepoints to 0.

"You won!"

"Incredible!" people murmured. That night Denholm was happier than ever for beating the second best. He fell asleep knowing about his visit around campus. He had a deep sleep. Denholm didn't realize that the door opened and a lady and boy came in and inspected him thoroughly looking for any marks of something. Who were these people, find out?
