The stats goes like this Yugi has 5300 life points. He held 3 cards in his hand and on his field, he has no monsters but he still has two facedown card. Nite Mare on the other hand has 5500 life points. He has 2 cards in and and also no monsters on the field but he still has his continous Magic Card: Dimensional Fissure face up on the field and one set card and now its his turn to draw. Yugi eyed his opponent warily.

"My turn now draw!" Nite Mare declared and now he has 3 cards in his hand. His hand cards contains: Macrocosmos, Helios- The Primordial Sun, and the Ritual Magic Card: End of the World the card he just drew. He took a glance an his facedown card and quickly decided to end his turn.

"That's weird why would he end his turn like that" Kristine said suspiciously

"Hmmm... I have a bad feeling about that facedown card of his" Yugi mused himself and took his turn to draw his 4th card. Unfortunately, he has no cards in his hand that would destroy his opponent's facedown card. To prove it, the cards in his hand are Dark Magic Curtain, Unity, Kuriboh, and the card he just drew the Friendship Magic Card.

"Friendship Magic...hmmm...I haven't used my facedown card yet but...if I think that facedown card is what I think it is..." Yugi said and decides to do something.

"I activate the Magic Card: Dark Magic Curtain!" Yugi declared and a black curtain appeared on the side of his field. Atemu smirks at this. 'By paying half of my life points, I can Special Summon Dark Magician (ATK 2500 DEF 2100) from my deck but in exchange I cannot summon a monster once I activated this card but this is all I need". And with that, his life points went down to 2650.

"Why would he do that for? He decrease a lot of his life points to summon a monster!" Mai exclaimed

"But if Yugi successfully direct attacks his opponent then it'll be worth it" Kaiba said

"Dark Magician! Direct attack to the player!" he declared but suddenly Nite Mare smirks.

"Activate Trap Card: Wall of Revealing Light!" Nite Mared said and a transparent wall appeared in the middle of the field stopping Dark Magician from attacking

"Wait a minute...I think I know that card" Bakura said frowning

"Really?" Malik asked

"If I'm correct, Nite Mare has to pay a multiple of life points to negate the attack of the monster" Bakura replied, still frowning at this and so Yugi's Dark Magician's attack is negated plus to everyone's surprised, Nite Mare's life points decrease to 2500.

"Let me add one more information about that Trap Card, I paid 3000 of my life points for the activation of this trap but in order for you to damage me you must surpassed the paid life point" Nite Mare explained

"Huh? I don't get it?" Jounouchi said in confusion

"It means in order for me to attack him, I have to increase my monster's attack above 3000 attack points. If they have lower attack points, I can't lay a finger on him" Yugi said crossly

"It's more powerful than Swords of Revealing Light" Malik surmised

"Agreed" Kaiba added and with that Yugi ended his turn sp its Nite Mare's turn now and draws his 5th card then passes. It's Yugi's turn again and this time, he gets Silent Magician LV 4. he decides to hold on to this card and ends his turn (A/N: He has 5 cards in hand also)

It's Nite Mare's turn and drwas his card. He finally gets the key card: Ruin, Queen of Oblivion but its a level 8 monster so he sets the ritual card face down and ends his turn

"...I still have that facedown I used but I can't use it yet..." Yugi mumbled. "I set one card face down and end my turn with that"

"This is getting nowhere here. I'm losing my patience" Kaiba growled

"...And I thought Swords of Revealing Light is annoying" Mai said as Nite Mare took his turn

"Just one more is all I need" Nite Mare said and ended his turn. Yugi wonders what he was trying to do so he draw a card, changed Dark Magician's position to defense then he ends his turn. It's his opponent's turn now and draws his card.

"It's time of utter chaos, a world of utter pain" Nite Mare grinned nastily

"He sounds like Pegasus" Kaiba growled

"At least he has humor" Mai said

"I activate my facedown Ritual Magic Card: End of the World!" Nite Mare declared

"What!" Yugi gasped as his opponent's card flipped face up. Suddenly, a hexagonal seal appeared on both sides of the field and began to fire some kind of laser." I'll sent Helios - The Primordial Sun and Aqua Spirit from my hand to the graveyard to satisfy the effect". With Nite Mare's declaration, he sent two monsters in the graveyard but due to his continous magic card: Dimensional Fissure, they are removed from play.

"Special Summon: Ruin, Queen of Oblivion (ATK 2300 DEF 2000)!" he declared and blue beams of light began to fire the field. There there was a woman with white long hair and wore a red devilish headband. Her height was pretty tall and she held a red trident on her right hand.

"Uh-oh, this is baaad" Jounouchi panicked but Yugi leered

"Ruin attack Dark Magician with Oblivion Death" Nite Mare declared and she began to charged at Dark Magician

"The past is the present and the present is the future. I won't let you lay a hand on the future!" Yugi said. "I activate my Quick Play Magic Card: Unity, By selecting one of my monsters on my side of the field, the defense points of that monster will increase depending on how many defense points on all face up monsters on the field until the End Phase. And I chose Dark Magician to activate the effect"

Suddenly, images of his past self and his friends began to gather Dark Magician and sent some kind of protection. Dark Magician's defense went up to 4100 because Nite Mare's monster's defense was 2000. With that, he suddenly had a backlash and his life points dropped to 1300

"Ack! Since when did you had that card" Nite Mare gasped

"This card represents the present. The present you were trying to destroy along with my memories. This card came from my memory" Yugi answered

"Yugi" Atemu mumbled

"Grrr... I end my turn with that" Nite Mare growled and pouted and snarled since he was left with 3 cards in hand

"It's my turn, draw" Yugi declared and draws his card. He has 7 cards in hand now then he selects one of the cards.

"I set 2 cards facedown and activate Magic Card: Swords of Revealing Light to prevent you from ataacking in 3 turns then I'll summon Silent Magician LV 4 (ATK 1000 DEF 1000) and I'll end my turn with that" Yugi declared as the Sword of Revealing Light is holding on Nite Mare's monsters. Now his hand was reduced to 3 cards in hand

"You'll pay for that stunt you runt" Nite Mare snarled

"Who cares" Yugi said as if he didn't care

"Ouch" Malik said

"What a come back!" Jounouchi said feeling excited all over as two players stare daggers to each other.

"It's my turn now, draw" Nite Mare declared and everyone hopes that this will be over

spiritfire: sorry for the delay yesterday I had little problems along the way no biggy and I think you'll be curious about the magic card: Friendship and Unity and since the Unity card is stated I better tell you the effect of Friendship

Friendship

Type: Magic/ Normal

Offer a handshake to your opponent. If your opponent accepts, each player's LP becomes half of the total of both player's LP's. If a player has 'Unity' in his hand, he can show it to his/her opponent, and then the opponent must accept the handshake.
