59. Dueling For Lost Hope!


"Read, Duel!" Kyu and Frederich announced as the girls cheered on for Kyu's win.

"This jerk! He deserves what's coming to him!" Yukie growled.

"Draw!" Kyu announced, drawing his first card. "Now! I summon X Head Cannon! (1800/1500)"

Suddenly a mechanical warrior appeared, it's round spiked ball for legs appearing and its powerful arms clashing together. "I'll then set two cards face down and end my turn!"

"My turn, draw!" Frederich announced. "Now! I set two cards face down, then activate this, Elite Fighting Force!"

"Huh? What's that?" Kyu said.

"Clueless boy, you're in for a doozy! By sacrificing my hand, I can special summon three monsters of the same name to the field!" Frederich said, discarding his entire hand. He then took out his deck, selecting three monsters. "Now! I summon all three of my Kunoichi Slayer's! (3x 1500/1300)"

"Err.." Kyu said as the the orange female ninja's appeared, raising their kunai's up, ready for an attack.

"But that's not all! They all gain an additional five hundred attack points due to the effect of my Elite Fighting Force!" Frederich smiled devilishly as all their attack points rose to 2000. "Kunoichi Slayer, destroy his X Head Cannon!"

The female ninja jumped into the air, her kunai glistening in the sun. She then threw it swiftly, hitting Kyu's machine right into its chest cavity, causing it to malfunction and explode. Kyu growled, shielding himself from the explosion as his life points dropped to 3800.

"This duel is as easy as pie!" Frederich laughed. "Kunoichi Slayers, attack his life points directly!"

"Kyu will lose if he can't do something!" Yukie said.

"Don't worry, Kyu is always prepared!" Hide smiled.

"Reveal magic card, Scapegoat!" Kyu announced as the two female ninja's jumped into the air, ready to strike. "By activation, I can bring forth four Sheep Tokens! (4x 0/0)"

"Err..." Frederich said as the two female ninja's threw their kunai's hitting two of the sheep, leaving two more. "I'll end my turn now."

"Draw!" Kyu announced suddenly surprised. "Yes, I drew Wings Of Evolution... But I'll have to wait, I can't afford to discard this card I have now... I can keep myself safe for another turn with Frederich having nothing else in his hand."

"Well? Still contemplating your next move?" Frederich said impatiently.

"I'll place on card face down and end my turn!" Kyu announced, knowing he placed Wings of Evolution down. "This should keep him at bay."

"Draw!" Frederich announced. "By the effects of Elite Fighting Force, one of my Kunoichi Slayers must be sacrificed."

Suddenly one of Frederich's female ninja's vanished. "So you must lose another one the next turn until they're all gone." Kyu figured.

"You guess right. But I have another plan for them." He smiled.

"Huh?" Kyu said.

"I sacrifice my two remaining Kunoichi Slayers so I can summon this! Death Shogun Ninja! (2700/2400)" He announced as a heavily armored ninja appeared, wielding a long flaming samurai sword and japanese mask.

"What is that!" Kyu gasped.

"Your impenetrable doom!" Frederich laughed. "Death Shogun Ninja, destroy his Scapegoat!"

The armored ninja charged forward, raising the sword over its head. The goat looked in shock as the sword came slashing down, destroying the token. "And by Shogun Ninja's effect you gain damage between the difference of my monster's attack and your monsters defense!"

"No way!" Kyu gasped as his life points reduced to 1100.

"Heh heh, yes way! Sooner or later you're destined to lose this duel!" Frederich laughed. "Also, Death Shogun Ninja's effect allows it one hundred more attack points each time I deal damage to your life points!"

"Argh, it'll just get stronger if I play weak monsters..." Kyu thought as the shogun began to glow, increasing its attack points to 2800.

"Who are you to chose my destiny!" Kyu said. "I believe I can win this, defeating a jerk like you is easy! I've done it many times in my life!"

"Well this will be your first loss." Frederich laughed. "My turn ends."

"Draw!" Kyu announced, drawing his newest card. "Now! I reveal my face down card, Wings of Evolution!"

"What's that!" Frederich said as the magic card flipped up and began to shine brightly, blinding him a little.

"By this card's effect, when I discard two cards from my hand, I can evolve my remaining Sheep Token!" Kyu said as suddenly the one white sheep began to glow brightly. Giant wings expanded on its little body, then it began to evolve. It grew into a tall and mighty mountain goat, it's golden horns curling at the sides of its heads and its wings flapping, releasing bright feather. "Go, Great Horned Jett! (2800/1600)"

"No..." Frederich growled.

"Not only does my new monster have the ability to kick the ass of your ninja, but it's special effect kicks in! It special summons four new Sheep Tokens! (4x 0/0)" Kyu smiled as four white sheep tokens appeared to the field. "And you won't be able to attack my monster without going through my sheep tokens first!"

"Heh, I have a similar monster..." Frederich smiled.

"I know, but due to the fact you have no other cards in your hand, I doubt you won't be getting far!" Kyu smiled.

"We'll see about that..." Frederich smirked.

"I'll shift Great Horned Jett to defense position (1600/2800)" Kyu announced as the mountain goat's wings hovered

over in front of itself. "I'll set two cards face down, my turn ends!"

"Well you've made a big mistake, pal." Frederich laughed. "Activate magic card, Pot of Greed!"

Frederich drew his two cards and smiled. "Now! Activate magic card, Cost Down!" Frederich announced. "With this, all levels of monsters in my hand decrease by two!"

"And I predict what's coming..." Kyu said.

"You predict right! Now I summon Death Ninja Gaiden! (2500/1400)" Frederich announced as the black clothes ninja appeared, wielding a short samurai sword. "And it's effect activates! It'll bring up three Ninja Assassins! (3x 500/500)"

"Heh, you haven't even touched my life points!" Frederich laughed. "Now! Ninja Assassin, destroy his sheep token!"

The ninja leapt into the air, sending a wave of shurikens toward it. Kyu shielded himself from the tiny sheep's explosion of tiny digital pieces. "Activate trap card!" Kyu announced as his face down card flipped up "Anger Core!"

"What!" Frederich gasped.

"Once this card is activated, it increases the attack of all my level three or lower monsters by two thousand whenever you destroy one of my level three or lower monsters!" Kyu said happily as suddenly his tiny white sheep grew intense red with steam shooting out of their nose and ears. "But my monsters must stay in attack position as long as my Anger Core affects them!"

Kyu watched as all three of his sheep token grew to 2000 each. "Errr..." Frederich growled, being so close to winning the duel.

"That's not all I'll do!" Kyu smiled. "Activate magic card, Brave Attack!" Kyu commanded, his remaining face down card flipping up.

"No!" Frederich gasped in horror.

"By this card's effect, I can combine the attack of all of my attack positioned monsters and use them as one attack!" Kyu smiled. "Sheep Token, (6000/0) destroy his Defense Shogun Ninja!"

"Yeah!" Yukie cheered wildly.

"That Kyu! He's so awesome!" A girl squealed as others began to squeal for his victory.

The three tiny rage filled goats charged forward all together, bashing into the shogun, penetrating his armor and causing him to explode.

"Gaaah!" Frederich cried out, clenching his chest as he was pushed onto the ground, his life points reducing to 800.

"Heh, I've already taken out most of your life points in one play!" Kyu said, pumped with adrenalin.

"My turn ends..." He growled.

"Draw..." Kyu announced, drawing his next card and smiled. "And here's your last fated visit to Duelist Academy!"

"What do you mean!" Frederich growled.

"Now! I summon Tortoise Cannon! (1000/2000)" Kyu announced as a mechanical turtle materialized to the field, a giant cannon on its shell moved, pointing to Frederich. "Tortoise Cannon gives me the ability to sacrifice my own monsters, and deal damage to your life points by half of the sacrificed monster's ATK."

"No!" Frederich gasped.

"Now! Tortoise Cannon, launch Great Horned Jett!" Kyu commanded, pointing his hand forward. Suddenly the mountain goat magically appeared in the mechanical turtle's cannon. Suddenly it fired and the goat came flying forward, its golden shining horns pointed toward Frederich.

Everyone shut their eyes, fearing they'd feel his pain as a large explosion broke loose. Frederich fell to his knee, clenching his side as his life points to 0.

"Your done!" Kyu said. "Go back to your fancy house and never come back!"

Frederich quickly ran off scared as the girls cheered as Kyu returned to Hide and Yukie. "Awww, Kyu, my hero!" Yukie said sarcastically as she gave him a noogie.

"Ha! It was really nothing..." Kyu said, trying to escape the raving girls.

That night as everyone began to fall asleep one by one, a swift mysterious figure began lurking down the hall ways of duelist academy. Finding Kyu's room. He grabbed the handle, jiggling it, finding out it's locked.

He swiftly turned around, his blue scarf thrashing as he turned. He saw two girls walking down the hall, Sophia and Genesis.

"So after that, I told her, no way!" Sophia laughed and Genesis laughed along.

They walked pass and the figure was hanging from the ceiling, pushing against the walls with his arms and legs to hold him up.

The figure smiled evilly as the two girls walked by. He obviously had an idea.
