Hey all once more. Thanks for the feedback so far.

pink-kiss-candy: Lol, yeah, he's kicking Kaiba's butt at the moment. I tried my hardest to make this story realistic when the duels took place. That was my goal always to keep from making the duel so unbelievable like the show does, lol. Thanks again for the comment.

Isis the Sphinx: 1. Lol, I'm not that fast.

2. Yep, they're still kicking butt, lol.

3. Usually I don't mention Yugi during duels due that Yami is dueling instead.

4. Thanks.

5. I shall keep writing.

Metal Overlord 2.0: Lol, yeah, I thought it would be nice and ironic if Illidan took Kaiba's dragon. You know how angry he was with Joey taking it during Battle City, so I thought I'd throw that one in, lol. And as for the two updates Sunday, I couldn't log in Friday or Saturday for some odd reason, so I just put both chapters out Sunday. Thanks again for your comments, and I'm going to try to look at your story today or tomorrow one, when I get time. Between work, writing, and trying to just survive, I sometimes don't get time, but I'll try today.

Well, that's all the feedback I got. I hope everyone enjoys this next chapter, and leave some kind of feedback for me. I enjoy it, the good and the bad, lol.

Chapter 39

Yami slowly drew and then said "It's my move now, and I'll summon Big Shield Guardna (100/2600) in defensive mode." A warrior with long black hair then appeared. He carried a large shield on one arm. He then took a one knee position, placing the shield in front of himself for protection.

"That ends my move." (Yugi 7200, Illidan 8000, Marie 14500, Marik 4900, Seto 6000)

Illidan quickly drew his next card, which was Graceful Charity. After thinking for a moment, he finally said "I'll now summon Breaker the Magical Warrior (1600/1000) in attack mode." A maroon robed mage with a sword and shield then appeared on the field.

"Due to his special effect, he now gains a spell counter, which grants him 300 additional attack points (1900/1000)." A small circle of energy then appeared on the warrior's sword, symbolizing the spell counter.

"Blue-Eyes, attack Yami's Big Shield Guardna with White Lightning!" The white dragon quickly took flight and fired its powerful stream of energy straight at the weaker warrior. The warrior tried to withstand it with his shield, but finally the warrior's shield broke, causing him to explode into millions of pieces.

"Now I invoke my Deck Master's special ability. Blue-Eyes, attack Marik's Drillago with White Lightening!" The dragon then toward the machine monster and fired yet another powerful stream of white energy. As the stream neared the machine, the blue blob of plasma energy jumped in the way, taking the hit for the machine monster. The plasma monster then spilled all over the field, but then began to regenerate as usual.

Smirking, Marik then stated "You triggered my trap Illidan. It's the trap Jam Defender. Now you'll have to get past Revival Jam to get to my life points, and of course, I'll now revive my Revival Jam!" With that, the blob pulled itself back together.

Knowing that Marik most likely had that trap, Illidan slightly laughed, saying "I figured you'd use that trap, which is good, cause now I can finish off that monster. Dark Magician of Chaos, attack Marik's Revival Jam with Chaos Slice!" The mage then swung his staff in the air, causing a blade of energy to form. The blade easily sliced right through the weaker plasma monster, causing it to explode.

"You're wasting your time Illidan. I already told you it won't work…" But this time it did work, for there were no signs of the plasma monster left.

Marik looked on, shocked, and asked "What is going on?"

Lightly chuckling, Illidan replied "You forgot my Dark Magician of Chaos's special effect removes a monster from play when it attacks. So, when I destroyed Revival Jam, it was removed from play. Your monster requires being sent to the Graveyard in order for it to revive, but since it was removed from play, it can't revive again."

Growling, Marik then realized his monster would remain gone too, which meant a key part of his defense was now gone.

"D.D. Warrior Lady direct attack Seto's life points with Dimension Blade Slash!" The female warrior then quickly crossed the field and slashed Seto, making him slightly slide back, but he continued to stand his ground.

"Breaker the Magical Warrior, attack Seto directly with Magical Sword Slash!" The remaining mage then slashed Seto hard with his sword, causing Seto to fall to one knee and pant for some much needed air.

"You can do it big brother!" called out a voice.

Illidan looked up, seeing that it was Seto's little brother Mokuba had said that. Painstakingly slowly, Seto got back up to his feet once again, showing he wasn't ready to call it quits.

"That ends my move." (Yugi 7200, Illidan 8000, Marie 14500, Marik 4900, Seto 2600)

Marie drew and smiled slightly, then said "My turn again. I'll summon Winged Kuriboh (300/200) in attack mode." A small fur ball, much like the one Yami had out, appeared on the field. This one was slightly different though. It had wings on it's back, which made it slightly different.

"Airknight, attack Marik's Drillago with Fairy Slash!" Galloping across the field, the fairy then swung his lance through the machine monster, easily destroying it.

"Thanks to Airknight, I can now draw one card. Shining Angel, direct attack Marik now with Silver Arrow Blast!" The blonde warrior then drew yet another arrow into his bow and fired a silver blast right at Marik, making Marik slide back from the blast.

"Winged Kuriboh, direct attack Seto's life points with Wing Attack!" Quickly flying across the field, the small winged fur ball then smacked Seto as hard as it could with one of it's wings. Seto seemed slightly annoyed by the fact he was struck by a big dust bunny.

"I end my move now." (Yugi 7200, Illidan 8000, Marie 16100, Marik 2900, Seto 2300)

Drawing, Marik then smiled and said "It's my move, and I'll play the magic card known as Card of Sanctity! This allows us all to draw till we hold 6 cards in our hands."

Illidan drew four new cards, which consisted of Blade Knight, Thunder Nyan Nyan, Sangan, and Alpha the Magnet Warrior.

"It's time to finish this duel, once and for all! Now I activate this magic card, Monster Reborn! I bring back Yugi's Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast (2100/1000)." Suddenly the twin headed beast with wings then reappeared, except this time on Marik's side.

"Next I'll activate my Deck Master's special ability, and bring back my Drillago (1600/1100) in defense of course." The machine monster then reappeared on the field in a crouching position as it had before.

"I'll now activate this card, the magic card Double Spell! To activate it, I must discard one magic card, which will be my Mystical Space Typhoon. Now I can activate one magic card in anyone's Graveyard, and I'll choose Illidan's! I'll activate Monster Reborn, bringing back Seto's Vorse Raider (1900/1200)." The beast warrior in black leather then reappeared, holding his axe in both of his hands.

"Now that I have three monsters, I sacrifice all 3 for The Winged Dragon of Ra (2100 + 1600 + 1900 5600/1000 + 1100 + 1200 3300)!" Suddenly the sky grew dark as lightening began flashing wildly across the sky. Then a huge golden sphere appeared in the sky that was slowly lowering itself to the field.

Laughing, Marik then said "Time to release Ra. Great Beast of the sky please hear my cry, transform thyself from orb of light and bring me victory in this fight. Envelope the desert with your glow and cast your rage upon my foe. Appear in this game as I call your name... Winged Dragon of Ra!" With that, the sphere transformed into a mighty golden dragon. Once transformed, it let out a horrible roar, letting all know that it was there to destroy all it's opponents.

"Winged Dragon of Ra, destroy Illidan's pathetic Blue-Eyes White Dragon with Blaze Cannon!" Ra powered up and prepared to blast away the weaker white dragon that Illidan had taken from Seto.

Standing there, watching in horror, Illidan thought "Darn, if only I had something to stop this."

Then Ra fired a huge stream of energy straight at the dragon. Just as the blast was about to engulf the white dragon, a wall that looked like a mirror appeared right in front of it, causing the blast to weaken. Illidan glanced over and noticed Marie had triggered a trap card.

Slightly smirking, Marie said "I don't think so Marik. I activate Mirror Wall to protect Illidan. Now your Winged Dragon of Ra's strength is cut in half (2800/3300)!"

Gasping at what just happened, Marik cried out "No! This can't be!"

Illidan smiled and said "Thanks Marie. Now Blue-Eyes White Dragon, counter attack with White Lightning!" The white dragon then rolled out of the way of the blast at the last second, and then counter attacked with his own powerful stream of white energy. Ra screamed in pain as the blast struck it. The blast then proceeded to be too much for the mighty dragon, causing it to explode into millions of pieces. The aftershocks of the explosion caused the whole tower to seem to rock.

Marik only stood there in shock, saying "No, my Winged Dragon of Ra! How can this be!"

After a few more moments, he then lowered his head and said "I end my turn." (Yugi 7200, Illidan 8000, Marie 16100, Marik 2700, Seto 2300)

Laughing evilly, Seto said "You amateur, you should have known Marie was going to protect Illidan. Now watch and learn. I first play Monster Reborn, bringing back my La Jinn the Mystical Genie of the Lamp (1800/1000)." The green genie then reappeared on the field, letting out a small "Hmm hmm hmm."

"Next I'll play the magic card Premature Burial, allowing me to bring back my Mystic Lamp (400/500) in attack mode. Unfortunately, I lose 800 points for that, but that'll be alright." The golden lamp then reappeared on the field.

"Now I activate the magic card Change of Heart, taking back control of my Blue-Eyes White Dragon." The white dragon then roared as it quickly moved from Illidan's side to Seto's, who laughed at this.

"You thought you could take my dragon, but you were wrong Illidan! Now I sacrifice all 3 in order to summon an unstoppable creature known only as Obelisk the Tormentor (4000/4000)!" The sky then darkened once again. All three monsters then disappeared in a flash of light, and the blue streak of lightening fell from the sky behind Seto. Then slowly, the large blue Egyptian God appeared behind Seto. It stretched out it's arms and gave off a horrific roar.

Laughing evilly, Seto said "You fools are finished now! Obelisk the Tormentor, destroy Marik's life points with Fist of Fate!" Obelisk slowly drew his power into his large fist and then launched his attack, preparing to flatten Marik with all his might.

Marik showed no fear though, and had a good reason not to. "I activate my Puppet Master's special ability. I now return my Winged Dragon of Ra (0/0) to the field in defense mode!" The puppet then let out a scream as he poured his power into Marik's Graveyard. Then Marik's Graveyard glowed with golden glare, and slowly the mighty Egyptian God rose once again to the field.

Growling due that Obelisk's attack was disrupted, Seto said "Fine, Obelisk, crush Ra with your Fist of Fate!" Obelisk was about to punch the mighty Ra when Marik grinned.

Laughing, Marik said "You fell into this trap Seto!"

Clueless, Seto said "What trap? You have no cards in play other than Ra!"

Lightly chuckling, Marik responded "True, but I have Ra. Now I activate Ra's special ability. I now transform Ra into the Egyptian God Phoenix!" Suddenly Ra burst into flames, causing things on the field to really heat up. Slowly, Ra's exterior then exploded and a large flaming phoenix remained in it's place.

Seto could only watch in horror as Marik then said "Now I give up 1000 life points so that Egyptian God Phoenix can destroy one monster, and that one monster is Obelisk!" The two Egyptian Gods then collided, but Ra caused Obelisk the burst into flames, which then caused Obelisk to explode, sending yet another fierce shockwave through the tower. Ra then slowly let out a roar as he was sucked back into Marik's Graveyard.

Shocked, angry, and desperate now, Seto said "I end my move." (Yugi 7200, Illidan 8000, Marie 16100, Marik 1900, Seto 1500)
