CH 12 Archfiend's Madness

Nothing is ever easy ever and we still have so much to do to save the world.

Suddenly a group of figures seems to block their advancement, appearing between all of them and the temple. Out of them, a tall man steps forward, obviously he is the leader of the group.

"The master desires me to duel with the one named Leia Kaiba," the leader says, nodding at Leia, he activates his Chaos Duel Disk.
"Alright, fine," Leia says, activating her own duel disk, she doesn't like it, but she has no choice. "You can go first, freak."
"Fine with me, little girl," the Orichalcos warrior draws his card, Pandemonium. "I play the Seal of Orichalcos!" He shouts, and the seal falls around them, burning into the man's forehead. "Now, I play the field card Pandemonium!" He continues, and around the sacred circle, the walls of the demon city appear. "I summon Infernal queen Archfiend (900/1500 + 500)!" He says, and the fiend appears. "Your move, girl."
Leia draws, still very confident. "I summon Kaiser Seahorse (1700/1650), in attack mode!" She exclaims, and the sea-serpent warrior appears. "I'll place one card face down, and have Kaiser Seahorse destroy your Archfiend!" She commands, and the seahorse destroys the monster, sending flesh, blood, and bone everywhere, dropping the soldier's life points to 7700. "Your move."
The Orichalcos Warrior draws. "I summon Shadow knight Archfiend!" He says, and the knight appears. "Shadow knight, destroy the Kaiser Seahorse!" He commands, and the knight charges at the seahorse, only to be deflected back by a wall.
"You activated my trap card, Mirror Wall!" Leia says,
"Depends on how lucky you are," the Orichalcos soldier says, and in the middle of pandemonium, 6 circles rise, and the 2nd one burst into flame.
"Sorry, not," Leia says, and the Shadow knight's attack is cut in half, Kaiser Seahorse strikes the knight, sending bone everywhere, the soldier's life points go down to 7000. "In old times, when a knight failed his king, he was to fall on his sword. It's your move still."
"I have to end," the soldier says.
"Good," Leia says, and draws. "I sacrifice Kaiser Seahorse for Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3000/2500)!" She exclaims, and the mighty dragon appears with a roar. "Blue-Eyes, direct attack, white lightning!" She commands, and the dragon sends a blast at the soldier, lowering his life points even more to 4000. "I'll place one card, your move."
The soldier draws. "I summon another Shadow knight Archfiend (2000/1600 + 500)!" He says, and the knight appears again. "Now, I equip my knight with Megamorph, doubling its attack points!" He exclaims, and the knight gets bigger. "Now, attack the Blue-Eyes!"
"Sorry, but I reveal my trap card Negate Attack!" Leia responds, and the circles move again, apparently luck isn't on the soldier's side today, because it lands on 4.
"Your move, girly," the soldier says.
Leia draws. "I play Harpie's Feather Duster," she says, and the megamorph card is destroyed. "Now, I play Card of Sanctity," she says, and they both draw until they have 6 cards. "Now, Polymerization, fuse my 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragons, to form the all-powerful Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!" She commands, and the 3 monsters fuse, the dragon looks down at the soldier hungrily. "Now, I play Pot of Greed," she says, drawing two. "Now I equip my dragon with first Gravity Axe-Grarl, then Twin Swords of Flashing Light-Tryce!" The dragon grabs the weapons. "Now, first destroy the Shadow knight, Neutron Blast!" She commands, the three heads power up, and the knight is incinerated in a single blast, sending the soldier's life points to 2000. "Now, this is where it ends, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Neutron Blast!" Leia commands, and the dragon sends a blast at the soldier, causing him to fall back against the seal, and sending his life points to 0. "As they say in chess, checkmate."
"No, master spare me!" The soldier pleads, but the pleas aren't answered as the seal traps his soul. The remaining four soldiers pick up his body and begin walking away.

"Do you really think I'm going to let you walk after that?" wanderer said stepping up to them.

"That's what they were hoping" another cloaked person said as she stepped up from behind them.

"Yeah well it's not going to happen." wanderer says jumping forward and dropping the four-cloaked people with two sift kicks. "Now then who're you?"

"Oh one of you already knows me" The person said as they threw back there hood, revealing, Short red shaggy hair, one orange eye and one pink, nose ring, and pierced ears with ear rings made from the Orichalcum stone. "Isn't that right Meerice?"

"Jona? Sister what are you doing with those people!" Meerice stepped closer clearly angry "have you sunk so low!"

"Does it matter little sister? I swore to destroy you, now I have the power to do that and gain your power all at once." she pulled a card from her deck. "But the time is not now for that" she held it aloft showing it to be archfiend soldier, suddenly the monster appeared it's sword dug a line in the dirt as it charged them. Everyone dodged aside and only wanderer stood in line with his charge the archfiend swung his sword. Wanderer stood there the sword stopped inches from his face, it growled and swung again harder.

"Didn't you know? Fiends can't hurt me." He looked towards where Jona had been. "Gone already? But then you'd miss this." wanderer clenched his fist and the fiend kneeled "next time do not try to harm your master" the fiend nodded then wanderer opened his hand and the fiend vanished.

They all noticed that the four others had gotten away as well as Jona.

"Damn it all oh well" wanderer said turning to Marik he said, "well lead on man."

They all followed marik down into the depths of the temple farther and farther underground they went. They finally came to the room which held the millennium items all seven of them sat there together set perfectly into the stone slab made to contain them. Wanderer stood his face showing a quizzical expression as he moved towards them; he stepped up to them and walked around the thing.

"There's another one here." wanderer said kneeling he pressed several runes and all seven items shown with powerful light. A small compartment slid open and wanderer reached in and pulled out another item this one looked older then the others it shown with an inner light but it wasn't gold it looked more platinum. Suddenly it lit up and wanderer's entire body lit up, his deck slid out of it's slot and flew around him some of the cards changing into something different eviler. Out in the desert the archfiend deck that Leia had fought exploded and the archfiend soldier Jona had caught on fire and burned itself up as well.

"Master of fiends you have appeared." a voice said and suddenly wanderer vanished. " And I have been claimed."
