He sighed, "What makes you think that you can defeat me?"
"We have a connection that nobody can sever!"
Gritting my teeth, I went on with my turn, "I summon Max Warrior in attack mode and place a facedown."
Max Warrior - 1800
I rejoined my brothers as Goodwin started his turn, "If only my opponent has monsters on their field, I can special summon Oracle of the Sun."
Oracle of the Sun - 1000
"Then I normal summon Fire Ant Ascetor."
Fire Ant Ascetor - 700
Freak, he just summoned a tuner!
"I tune them together to Synchro Summon Sun Dragon Inti!"
Sun Dragon Inti - 3000
He wasn't done, "Then I remove my Fire Ant from play to special summon Weeping Idol."
Weeping Idol - 0
"Then I lower my life points by a 1000 to special summon the Dark Tuner Dark Goddess Witaka!"
Life Points Goodwin=11000
Dark Goddess Witaka - 0
"My Dark Tuner copies the level of a Synchro on my field. Then I Dark Synchro Summon Moon Dragon Quilla!"
Moon Dragon Quilla - 2500
"I end my turn with two facedowns, and Moon Dragon Quilla is sent to the graveyard since Sun Dragon Inti is on the field."
Sun and moon, that means that they might come back if we destroy the other.
Crow shot forward, "Time to build a bridge!"
Goodwin muttered, "That bridge has already cost someone their arm."
Crow paused for a second before starting his turn, "I activate the Speed Spell Tune Up 1,2,3! This lets me roll a die, and depending on what it rolls, my tuner gains that many levels."
He watched his screen carefully, "Boo-yah! It gains a level and then tunes Bora the Spear to create Blackwing Armor Master!"
Blackwing Armor Master - 2500
"And since my Armor Master is on the field, I can special summon Elphin the Raven from my hand."
Elphin the Raven - 2200
"Now my Blackwing Armor Master attacks Sun Dragon Inti!"
Goodwin started to laugh, "And what would that possibly accomplish?"
As Armor Master charged the dragon, it tried to defend itself by shooting fireballs.
Despite a cool defense, Armor Master still managed to plant his wedge token.
Crow smiled, "Whenever Blackwing Armor Master is weaker than a monster he battles, he places a wedge counter. He also doesn't get destroyed, and I take no damage. The final bonus is that the wedge counter drops your monster's points the next time a monster declares an attack."
Sun Dragon Inti-0
"Elphin the Raven, attack Sun Dragon Inti!"
Hope started to rise inside of me as Sun Dragon Inti was destroyed.
Life Points Goodwin=8800
Crow laughed, "See, just like the legendary duelist, I'm building hope for Satellite!"
"I was a fool to think that destiny would ever change, and I learned that after I lost my arm. Sun Dragon Inti's effect destroys the monster that destroyed, and then deals damage equal to its points to you."
Life Points Crow=1800
"Then Quilla's special ability activates, which brings it to the field in defense mode every time that Inti is destroyed."
Moon Dragon Quilla-2000
"You keep talking about hope, and defying destiny, but you cannot deny raw power!"
My mark felt like it was slowly being pulled out, leaving behind an ice cold sensation.
I glanced at Jack who was looking just as scared as I felt, then looked at Goodwin.
The full mark of the Crimson Dragon was on his chest.
He chortled with laughter, "I will become the deity of this world, and I will crush you pathetic souls with my power!"
Crow gritted his teeth, "I place two facedowns and end my turn."
Jack and Crow switched places, "I put one card down before I summon Magic Hole Golem in defense mode."
Magic Hole Golem-2000
"His special ability halves the points of a monster on my field, and if your monster's in defense mode, my monster can attack you directly."
Mad Archfiend-900
"Now attack Goodwin!"
Life Points Goodwin=7900
Crow cheered, "I activate Shadow Dance. If the opponent takes direct damage, they also take another 1000."
Life Points Goodwin=6900
How'd I know that this would happen?
"I activate Rising Rush, which activates when my opponent takes damage from a card effect. This allows me to summon any Tuner monster from my hand. Come on out Junk Synchron!"
Junk Synchron-1300
Jack drifted backwards, "Your turn, Yusei."
"Gladly. I tune my two monsters together to create Junk Archer!"
Junk Archer-2300
"And then Junk Archer can remove a monster from play once per turn, but that monster will return during my end phase. Let's start with Moon Dragon Quilla!"
An arrow from Junk Archer created a vortex, sucking in Quilla.
"And since he's gone, Junk Archer is going to attack you directly!"
One of Goodwin's cards popped up, "I activate Offerings to the Immortals. If I don't have a monster on my field when a direct attack is announced, I can negate it. But I also get to summon 2 ceremonial tokens."
Ceremonial Token-0
Ceremonial Token-0
My spirit dropped, and I struggled to control my breath as he continued, "And the final effect of this spell is that I can add any Earthbound Immortal to my hand."
Crow grumbled, "Talk about an unfair card! Not only does he get to negate the attack and summon tokens, but he also gets to add that monster to his hand!"
"Like we haven't noticed! I place two cards facedown and end my turn."
Goodwin started to laugh, "I sacrifice my tokens in order to summon Wiraqocha Rasca!"
Through the duel network, I could hear Jack freak out as the purple lights floated by, "He's taking the souls of the city people!"
Wiraqocha Rasca-1
Just then we heard a strange sound come from behind us, and I twisted around to see bird like creatures flying toward us, "What are those?"
"The King of the Netherworld is celebrating the extra power he gains from one of the Immortals also being in this world. He is sending his minions to attack you Signers."
One of them charged me, only to get blasted by a stream of flower petals.
Aki's voice came through the network, "We're covering you guys!"
Luna piped up, "Kick their butts!"
Jack glanced back, "Looks like both of them have their dragons out."
Goodwin spoke up, "My Immortal may not have many points, but once per turn, I can skip the battle phase in order to drop my opponent's points to 1."
Jack and Crow cried out at the same time, "Drop to 1?"
My stomach went from being in an okay position to cowering at my feet.
Goodwin's giant hologram eyes locked onto me, "And first off is going to be Miss Fudo. I'll make you all feel hopeless!"
Crow spoke up, "Us Satellites don't get hopeless. We've lived through too much to just lie down and take what's coming to us. You should know that better than anyone!"
A minion hit the side of Crow's runner, making his temporarily lose control.
"Crow, are you alright?"
He nodded, "I activate Life Exchange. This takes an effect that would change the life points of someone else and switches it to me."
I looked at him, "Crow, you can't!"
His eyes locked with mine, "You are the best duelist out of us, and our little sister. We will protect you with our final breaths."
A stream of energy came from the Immortal and sent Crow flying off the track.
Life Points Crow=1
I watched as his wings slowly clicked into place, "Due to Life Exchange, one of your monsters is destroyed. Since your Immortal was the one lowering the life points, it's safe. So that leave Quilla!"
Crow flew right through Quilla, yelling the whole time.
Goodwin glared at him, "That just means that Inti comes back."
Sun Dragon Inti-3000
"I activate Blackwing Bombardment, which sends my Armor Master to the graveyard to help us out later."
We watched helplessly as he crashed to the track behind Goodwin, which immediately pronounced, "If he can't ride, he can't duel."
Jack and I exchanged glares, and waited for Goodwin to end his turn.
"I place one facedown and end my turn."
A/N: No reviews, so I'm just going to say have a great day!
