58. Yukie's Love Duel
"One, two, three, draw!" Kyu and the rest of his class announced, practicing their draw.
"That's right class, keep going at that for fifteen minutes..." Mimura said, dozing off in his desk while reading a magazine.
"One two three, draw! One two three, draw!" The class went over and over again.
"This is boring!" Kyu thought, watching Hide getting tired.
Kyu looked to his right to see Yukie, not seeming to care, and just drawing without counting and randomly. She seemed pretty happy. "What's up Yukie?" Kyu whispered.
"Frederich Gordon... He's coming to visit the school today!" Yukie said happily.
"Who's that?" Kyu asked.
Yukie suddenly gasped loudly. "YOU DON'T KNOW WHO FREDERICH GORDON IS!" She screamed loudly in shock.
Kyu sort of chuckled as the whole class stopped to see Yukie's big scene. "Yukie, Kyu-Haru, step outside..." Mimura said.
"Sorry about that..." Yukie said, blushing as they both leaned against the wall.
"That's ok, I know you're pretty excited for this guy..." Kyu chuckled, scratching the back of his head.
"Yup! Frederich Gordon is like the most hottest duelist ever! He uses his strong Ninja Deck to take down anyone! He;s like one of the most best duelists ever!" Yukie said happily. "And he's been invited to make an appearance in Duelist Academy today! I can't wait!"
"Maybe I can duel this guy! There's always time for just fooling around." Kyu said. "If he's that popular of a duelist, he must be really strong."
Soon enough the bell rang and Hide came out. "What was up with that?" Hide said, looking at Yukie weirdly as she blushed again.
"Ahh, so this guy must be really popular with the girls!" Hide said as they discussed during lunch.
"Yup! All the girls are raving about him!" Yukie chuckled happily.
"No wonder us guys don't know these things..." Kyu shrugged. "Kind of strange though, that this is occurring after the message from Dameon..."
"No way! Frederich would never be one of them! He's too famous and rich to be all into this stuff!" Yukie said.
"That's the thing about celebrities. We'd probably need to see to it that he's not apart of The Killer 9. Plus, Harem and Pulce are still out there." Hide said.
"Alright, we'll check it out." Kyu said.
An hour later, the three arrived to the crowded area where Frederich sat at a desk, signing autographs. There were a lot of girls squealing everywhere.
As Yukie, Kyu, and Hide made their way up to him, Frederich looked at them. "Haven't gotten much boy fans, you two must be the firsts." Frederich sort of laughed as Hide and Kyu turned red.
"Oh my gosh! I love you so much!" Yukie squealed.
"Heard that before..." Frederich yawned. Frederich was dressed in a snappy white suit and had a nice shining black hair form the bottles of hair gel he probably used to get it right.
"So what's your name..." Frederich said to Yukie.
"Yu-yu-Yukie, sir!" Yukie said.
"Yume..." Frederich said, writing it down onto a photograph of himself and handing it to Yukie.
"Oh my gosh! I'll never leave this out of my sight!" Yukie said happily.
"But he spelled your name wrong..." Hide said.
"Who cares! He's so special in my heart! Oh!" Yukie said with dreamy eyes.
"No please move aside..." Frederich said, sort of annoyed.
"Hmm, this guy may attract girls, but he's not much of a gentleman..." Kyu said.
"What are you saying!" Yukie screamed. Suddenly all the girls surrounding him glared at him.
"You dare criticize the great Frederich Gordon!" All the girls screamed.
"Heh heh.." Hide said, trying to hide as he felt on the spot. Kyu too also looked nervous.
As the girls stared down at Kyu and Hide, Yukie got her chance to talk with Frederich. "Wow, you're so awesome..." She said in a daze.
"Umm... Leave me alone..." Frederich said.
"But don't you love your fans?" Yukie said.
"Love! Ha! I despise all of you petty girls! It's always one after another, same words, same drool, same, look!" Frederich laughed, pointing at Yukie's face.
"What?" Yukie said, feeling a sudden break in her heart.
"I'm only doing this because Kaiba Seto is paying me to put some enthusiasm in the school, not to make you all feel special!" Frederich laughed.
"You jerk!" Yukie screamed, crumbling up her paper and throwing it at Frederich's face. "I've idolized you since I ever started playing Duel Monsters!"
"Life's tough kid, so as I was saying, move aside!" Frederich growled.
"Your not the great duelist I thought you were to be! You're seriously a real jerk!" Yukie said
"Trust me, Kid, I could face all these girls in a duel and win!" Frederich laughed.
"How bout just one! Me!" Yukie said, holding up her duel disk. "A person with a bad mind doesn't deserve to be a duelist, and that's just what you are!"
"Heh, like I care." Frederich smirked, holding up his duel disk.
Both Yukie and Frederich slid in their decks, causing their duel disks to open up. "Duel!" Frederich and Yukie announced as their life points rose to 4000.
"Hey look!" Kyu said, pointing to the center of the crowd where Yukie and Frederich began to start their duel. "What's going on?"
"Looks like Yukie's getting into a duel with Frederich..." Hide said.
"You make all of us feel special because we get to know you, but deep down you're just buying our hearts so you can ust get money! How cruel is that!" Yukie said, drawing her five cards.
"It gets me somewhere in life, unlike you who spends their whole life idolizing someone who doesn't seem to care about you little freaks!" Frederich smiled, drawing his five. "I move, draw!"
"I think Yukie's figured this guy is not all who he seems to be..." Kyu said.
Frederich looked at his first drawn cards. "I summon Kunoichi Slayer in defense mode! (1300/1500)" He announced as a woman in a orange ninja suit appeared, her black hair tied up in a pony tail, and wielding a small kunai. She crouched down, defending herself from any on coming attacks. "I'll then set a card face down and end my turn!"
"Draw!" Yukie announced, drawing her first card. "I'll summon Back-Up Guardian! (500/2000)"
"Here we go..." Kyu said.
"Next, I'll activate this magic card, Guardian's Back-Up!" Yukie announced as her magic card flipped up. "By activation, I can sacrifice my Back-Up Guardian to summon another Guardian monster from my hand!"
"Alright! This guy doesn't stand a chance!" Hide said as all the girls watched in awe.
"Now! I bring forth Guardian Grarl! (2500/1000)" Yukie announced as the big dinosaur warrior appeared on the field. "Destroy his Kunoichi Slayer!"
The dinosaur warrior charged forward, slashing the female ninja into two with his giant claw. Frederich smiled. "Activate Kunoichi Slayer's effect!" He announced. "By destroying my kunoichi, I can special summon another Kunoichi Slayer to the field from my deck! (1500/1300)"
"Easy picking, your monsters are weak!" Yukie smiled.
"Yes, but my Kunoichi Slayer gains an additional five hundred attack points!" Frederich smiled. "Now! Reveal magic card, Thousand Kunai's!"
"What's that!" Yukie gasped.
"This magic card allows me to destroy any monster on your field if I have a ninja monster on my field!" Frederich smiled.
"No!" Yukie gasped as the female ninja stood up, holding a round of kunai's. She then threw them, and hundreds of others joined in, striking Yukie's guardian and destroying it.
"Heh, looks like you're not even worth the fight! Kunoichi Slayer, attack her life points directly!" Frederich called out, pointing.
The Kunoichi jumped into the air, ready to strike. Yukie looked up in shock as the female ninja struck at her with her small sword.
"Agh!" Yukie screamed, holding her shoulder in pain as her life points reduced to 2000.
"I'll set one more card face down and end my turn!" Frederich announced.
"Activate trap card..." Yukie announced.
"What?" Frederich said.
"Activate, Damage Condenser!" She said as her trap card flipped up and began to glow. "With this I can special summon any monster that has the same amount of attack points or lower with the damage I took previously."
"Heh, nice try kid but I doubt there's any other guardian you have that can take down my ninja..." Frederich smirked.
"That's where you're wrong!" Yukie said. "I summon Guardian Hellfire! (1900/1200)"
Suddenly there was a blaze of fire and a demon creature rose up. He had horns of a goat, the legs of a goat, but the full torso of a black demon with markings on its body.
"Heh, thought so." Frederich smirked.
"You thought wrong! I've summoned to monster so I can take a chunk out of your life points!" Yukie smiled. "But first! I'll activate this magic card, Spark Cannon!"
"Huh?" Frederich said as a giant lightning bolt shaped cannon appeared. Guardian Hellfire took it to his arms, resting it on his shoulder and crouching down.
"With this equipped to my guardian, it gains an additional five hundred attack points!" Yukie said as her goat demon grew to 2400. Yukie looked at her two remaining cards in her hand, frowning she didn't have the correct card to summon the guardian which was made for Spark Cannon. "Now I move to my Battle Phase, and my Guardian Hellfire's ability activates!"
"Heh..." Frederich smiled.
"By its effect, your monster loses attack points by half of how ever many attack points my guardian has!" Yukie smiled as the kunoichi began to glow a firery red color, reducing her attack points to 800.
"Errg no!" Frederich growled.
"Guardian Hellfire, attack!" Yukie called out, pointing forward.
The guardian pulled the trigger on Yukie's Spark Cannon, causing it to send a ball of electricity toward the female ninja, destroying her completely.
Yukie smiled, holding up a peace sign for victory. "Yeah!" She cheered as Frederich's life points reduced to 2400.
"You forget the effect of my Kunoichi Slayer's special ability! She allows me to bring back another Kunoichi Slayer to the field but with five hundred more attack points! (1500+5002000)" Frederich smiled.
"I'll set one card face down and end my turn!" Yukie announced.
"Draw..." Frederich announced, drawing his next card. "Now! I sacrifice my Kunoichi Ninja to summon this! Death Ninja Gaiden! (2500/1400)"
"What's that!" Yukie said in shock as the female ninja vanished, and a muscle bound ninja with dark blue clothing appeared, wielding a long sword on his back.
"This is your worries little girl." Frederich smirked. "By this card's effect, I gain three Ninja Assassins! (3x 500/500)"
Suddenly three puffs of white smoke appeared and three black ninjas appeared, each wielding a round of shurikens. "You won't be able to attack my Death Ninja Gaiden without going through my Ninja Assassins first!" Frederich smiled.
"Now! Death Ninja Gaiden, destroy her Guardian Hellfire now!" Frederich announced, pointing at Yukie's goat demon.
The ninja charged forward, running swiftly toward Guardian Hellfire. He unsheathed his sword and jumped into the air, then falling down, striking the demon and cutting it in half, destroying it along with Yukie's Spark Cannon, reducing Yukie's life points to 1800.
"Now! All three Ninja Assassins, attack her life points now!" Frederich hollered, pointing at Yukie. The three ninjas all ran up different walls until they both aligned themselves in the air. They then threw one shuriken each, striking Yukie.
Yukie screamed as they exploded around her, causing her life points to drop to 300.
"My turn ends..." Frederich smirked.
"I have only one more shot to beat this guy!" Yukie growled, drawing her next card. "Now! Activate magic card, Pot of Greed!"
Yukie swiftly drew her next two cards and smiled. "Now! I activate this, Guardian Reformation!" She announced, raising the magic card in the air. "By sacrificing half of my life points (LP: 150) I'll be able to bring back Guardian Hellfire! (1900/1200)"
Suddenly the goat demon reformed back onto the field, but wielding Spark Cannon. "How can you bring a monster back while still equipped to a equip card!" Frederich said.
"Guardian Reformation also lets me bring back the equip card that it was equipped with!" Yukie smiled. "Now I can summon this guy, Guardian Shifter! (1500/1300)"
"Heh, just building up an army of guardians, pathetic..." Frederich smiled as the blue suited warrior rose to the field.
"Now! I activate this, Raise Dead! So I can bring back Guardian Grarl! (2500/1000)" Yukie announced as the dinosaur warrior returned to the field.
"No..." Frederich growled.
"I have just enough to destroy all your life points by destroying your Ninja Assassins!" Yukie smiled. "Guardian Shifter, destroy his Ninja Assassin Token!"
The warrior charged forward, his fists lighting up with electricity.
"Activate trap card, Defending Ambush Force!" Frederich announced. "By activation you won't be able to touch my Ninja warriors!"
"No!" Yukie gasped as Frederich's trap card shot a net at Guardian Shifter, catching him and slamming him back to Yukie's side of the field.
"And with no other cards in your hand, you're hopeless little girl!" Frederich laughed.
"No!" Kyu and Hide said.
"My turn, draw!" Frederich announced.
"I tired my hardest..." Yukie thought.
"Death Ninja Gaiden, destroy her Guardian Shifter now!" Frederich announced, pointing forward. The ninja jumped up, then slashed down across the guardian's chest with his sword, causing the guardian to explode into digital pieces.
Yukie looked sadly as her life points reduced to 0. "Now you see, little girl! I have it all and you're just nothing!" Frederich laughed.
Kyu stood there growling as Frederich laughed on at Yukie who felt embarrassed. The other girls looked in sympathy to Yukie as she walked off.
"That's enough!" Kyu yelled, stepping up.
"Frederich, you're nothing but a low life money eating man!" Kyu said.
"Is that so?" Frederich laughed. "So what have you done that's so great in your life."
"I gained trust in my friends. Maybe if you had some then you wouldn't be such a bad guy." Kyu growled.
"Friends? I don't need friends when I'm filthy stinking rich!" Frederich laughed.
"You're a horrible person to let down all your fans like that!" Kyu growled. "And you do it all just so you can get paid!"
"So what, are you here to just make a cute speech or are you going to do something about it?" Frederich laughed.
"Fine, if you want me to take action, I will!" Kyu said. "I challenge you to a duel! If I win you're going to have to apologize to the whole school!"
"And if I win... Then not only to you become my little servant boy, but you're going to have to forfeit your life in Duelist Academy. I can't have you ruining my style here. Seto Kaiba pays good money." Frederich laughed.
"I'm willing to take that risk to make reveal the real you!" Kyu said.
"This shall be interesting." Frederich laughed.
