Chapter 15: Wind vs. Earth! Aang's Duel Test!
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, or Avatar the Last Air Bender, I do own Kasumi, along with most of her deck which is based off of Fire Emblem Female characters.
A/N: I noticed thanks to an honest reviewer that I did make a mistake when introducing Scarfice Blessing. During the End Phase of the turn you activated it, Michiah Maiden of Dawn's ATK goes back to normal.
The next morning came quickly. I was overjoyed that I was reunited with my friend Toph. She was an incredible Earth Bender that even I knew even the most experienced ninjas would be taken by surprise. Right now I was watching as Naruto was rubbing his face in deep pain. You see he had asked Toph to help him train and well he was paying the price. His first mistake was to charge in on her forgetting that she was an Earth Bender and also forgetting she was blind. This resulted in him running into a rock wall Earth Bended by Toph and for him to fall on the ground. Not only this I was on the ground laughing at Naruto's words "Why did you have to aim for my face Toph?"
"I didn't aim for your face!" Toph snapped at him "YOU ran into it."
"Where's your scene of support sis?" Naruto asked me as he heard me still laughing.
"I still have it!" I told him in between giggles "It's just that your-"
"Too predictable?" Toph asked.
"Yes," I said "Too predictable!"
"What was too predictable of that?" Naruto asked.
Haku answered for the two of us "Simple, you always seem to forget that Toph has proven herself to be a dangerous fighter...Besides going in screaming at the top of your lungs isn't helping you land a blow on any opponent."
"Then" Naruto said "Let me try that again!"
He gets up and makes hand seals "Let's see her fancy vibrations pick this up! Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Five clones of Naruto appear with Kunai in their hands "Let's get her!"
Toph just sighs once then begins Earth Bending destroying his Clones and striking him with another well Earth Bended Rock to the stomach he falls out of breathe.
"Oh man."
I just shake my head as Naruto's determination sets in "No matter what I'll find a way to get pass her Earth Bending abilities!"
He tightens his head band then charges in. As he charges in I lose a bit of interest as I knew it would take some time before Naruto could get past Toph's incredible Earth Bending skills. Like I said she was the one that taught me Earth Bending but even though I had mastered it even I knew that she was much more powerful than I was when it came to a fight. She gave a new meanings of being a blind person. She might be blind but her sense of vibrations threw her feet made her nearly equal to being able to see.
"I'm glad she and I are friends" I told Haku and Hanabi "She's a great ally."
"Agreed" Haku said watching as Naruto is overpowered yet again by Toph "She'd even be a match to at least a Chunin or an inexperienced Jounin."
"She'd put Rock Lee to shame" Hanabi joked "The way she's easily pummeling Naruto."
Kakashi-papa was watching Naruto spar against Hanabi trying to get a blow on her. As always Kakashi-Papa was laid back when it came to these things, he takes out his book "Oh well, whatever gives him training is okay. As long as he doesn't over do it."
Iruka-Sensei just watches from afar too "Well you've gotta intervene some time Kakashi,"
"Oh I will" Kakashi-Papa tells him "Just not right now, let him train, it's what he lives for."
"Point taken" Iruka-Sensei said.
While the two Jounin were watching Naruto training against Toph, I returned my attention to Aang.
"Hey Aang" I said to him.
He turns to me "Hello Lady Kasumi! Checking in on me?"
"Not really" I told him "Just am not interested any further to see Naruto get creamed."
Aang understood me "And to think on how this situation started in the first place..."
Hearing this I just grinned hiding in more laughter, it was a pretty stupid thing that got Naruto into this mess well he started it. You see he wanted to Duel Toph thinking if I beat her then he could...Well he had forgotten that Toph's next opponent was Aang and even though she mentioned it to him, well Konoha's Knuckle Headed Ninja wouldn't take no for an answer and basically challenged her to the fight.
"He's gonna go down hard" Aang muttered.
"He already is" Sokka said wincing as Naruto was hit beneath the belt by a stray rock "Oh, that's gotta hurt."
Katara looks at me "Shouldn't you or Kakashi step in by now?"
"Katara" I told her "Big brother hates it when someone interrupts his fights. Besides Kakashi-Papa will intervene when he sees the need too...As for right now let him let loose his steam."
"Oh alright" Katara said.
For a while we were silent the Aang turns to me "So what advise do you have for me before I go Duel against Toph?"
"Just make sure she doesn't play Rock Cave on you" I told him "And remember if she does be on edge."
"Thanks" Aang told me shaking my hand "Well pretty soon as soon as Naruto and Toph stop fighting, Toph and I will be Dueling."
"Not for a long time" I told him as Katara and Sokka turned towards the two fighters with Sokka speaking "He just doesn't give up on his goals does he?"
"Brother doesn't know the meaning of the word give up" I admitted.
Even Hanabi was shaking her head then she smiles "But that just makes him remarkable as a Shinobi, his will to never give up and not to mention not knowing the meaning of the word give up, makes him stronger."
"But" Haku said wincing as Naruto took another blow to below the belt "Too bad that doesn't make him smarter...At least right now."
"That's the second time you got me there!" Naruto shouted then he growled "Alright no more mister nice Ninja! Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Hundreds of Naruto appeared then gathered in Fire in their hands "Altogether now!" the real Naruto shouted then they hurled the Fireball.
"That might do it" Sokka, and even Katara spoke but Hanabi, Haku and I knew Toph better than the two knew her already. As the fire attack came over towards her Toph sensed it coming then Earth Bended till she got stones all around her body. This caused Aang to jaw drop as she took many fire attacks and seemed to be unharmed! She then let lose the rocks around her body shooting them out like they were some sort of missile. I gave out a laugh as Naruto's clones were pummeled and Naruto finally took a rock to the face which knocked him out.
"That's gotta leave a mark" Sokka, Katara, and I muttered.
Kakashi-Papa just walks over to the unconscious Naruto then looks at Toph "Good job Toph."
Toph just grins "Hey no big deal, Naruto just is too predictable when he's angered. I hope I didn't go overboard against him for a simple training battle."
"Naruto has taken more attacks then any of us knows" I said remembering Naruto's battles with opponents "He's taken lots of Kiba's attacks, not to mention nearly a lot of Neji Hyugga's jabs, deals with Gaara of the Sand. Heck he's even lived threw me using my psychic blasts on him and even a finger flick from Lady Tsunade."
Sokka just blinks looking at Naruto "You mean you're own Big Brother has taken worse beatings then this and lived threw it?"
"Yes" Haku said "The number of attacks he's taken is just too much and yet, he still recovers from them like they were nothing."
"Oh" Naruto said sitting up then looked like he was regaining consciousness he looks at me "Oh hey mom! What are you doing here for?" then he passes out again right into my lap with me looking puzzled then I let out "Uh brother, I'm not your mother."
"But you're lap feels good mom" was Naruto's sleep talk reply.
I just sat on the ground with Naruto laying in my lap. Toph turned to Aang "Well I'm all warmed up now anyone else for a round with me?"
"No" Haku and Hanabi said
"How about you Kasumi?" she asks me.
"No way!" I told her and Sokka urged me "Oh come on Lady Kasumi, you're one of the best fighters here, I mean you have the Gentle Fist, you have Shadow Possession Jutsu! And you're an Earth Bender...Plus you have those Psychic Powers!"
"No!" I shouted "There are times to fight and times when you need to conserve your energy."
"She's right" Toph said "Even though we are in the Earth Kingdom, the Fire Nation is nearby waiting for us so they can catch Aang. We have to conserve our energies so if they try to attack us."
"What about Naruto?" Katara asked for my unconscious brother.
"He'll come around" Kakashi-Papa told her.
"A few more minutes mom" Naruto muttered with his head still on my lap, I just shook my head.
Then I gave out a sigh "Besides...With Naruto unconscious right now and misjudging me as my mom...Things are going to be a while."
The unconscious Naruto wraps his arms around me "Hey! Big Brother!"
"Funny..." Naruto muttered "Sense when did mom get so short?"
"That's because she's not Aki-Sensei!" Haku answered for me.
Hanabi and I just shook our heads knowing that because Naruto was unconscious, he truly didn't know whom was with him. I must admit that I do look like my mother but I didn't think I would ever be mistaken as my mom especially from my unconscious brother.
Takara my pet Vulpix was on my shoulder. I did feel a bit like Kiba only Kiba has Acumaru tucked in on his chest. I turned petting her head "Good girl."
"Vulpix" Takara spoke nudging her head up and down my neck.
Aang turns to me "Looks like you have your hands full Lady Kasumi."
"You have no idea how right you are" I told him smiling.
Now that the little sparing fight between Toph and Naruto was settled we began to relax a bit more. Toph also agreed that she had to calm down before Dueling against Aang.
Katara turned to me then to Toph "Are you sure you want to Duel against Aang Toph?"
"Of course" Toph said "Even though I'd love to teach Aang, Earth Bending, I want to see if he is up to the challenge by Dueling."
I turned my attention to Katara as she turns to me "Won't you reconsider teaching Aang Earth Bending?"
I smiled at her "Well Katara, I would love to teach him Earth Bending but any Shinobi of the Leaf Village knows that the mission comes first. My team and Iruka-Sensei were ordered by the Fifth Hokage herself to protect Aang from the Fire Nation. Can't teach and protect at the same time now."
"Especially when she is also going to be targetted by the Fire Nation and Sound Ninja" Haku said to Katara "Lady Kasumi is good against the Fire Nation and she's proven to be a terror against them but it's against the Sound Ninja that worries me."
"But she's psychic!" Sokka told him.
"Doesn't matter" Haku warned "We must expect Orochimaru to find out about Lady Kasumi by now and go straight to his oath."
"Orochimaru?" Sokka, and Katara asked.
"Who is this Orochimaru?" Aang asked.
Kakashi-Papa answered "Orochimaru is the leader of the Sound Village and one of the three Legendary Ninja Sannin."
"You mean to say" Aang said to Kakashi-Papa "That this Orochimaru is on par with Lady Tsunade?"
"Yes" Kakashi-Papa told Aang "And I don't know if you met him Lord Jiryia."
"Pervy Sage?" Hearing this Naruto regained consciousness right away bolting up right striking me in my chin "Brother!" I hissed.
"Oh sorry sis!" Naruto told me he then notices that he was lying his head on my lap "Uh, how did this happen?"
"Toph easily defeated you" Sokka said "And you mistaken your sis as Lady Aki."
"I did?" Naruto asked he looks at me "How did I do that?"
I hid a sweat drop as Naruto looked at Kakashi-Papa "You say something about Prevy Sage?"
"Yes" Kakashi-Papa said turning towards Aang, Katara and Sokka "Anyway, the three Legendary Ninja Sannin, Lady Tsunade, Lord Jiryia, and Orochimaru were taught by the Third Hokage."
"Are the Sannin powerful?" Aang asked.
Toph answered "You bet they are Twinkle Toes! You've seen Tsunade's incredible strength, and Jiriya's pretty good too...Orochimaru is also powerful."
Katara noticed Haku and I looking down "What's wrong?"
Haku answered "Way before we met any of you, Lady Kasumi and I ran into Orochimaru...Even with all my ninja skills, I was absolutely powerless to protect Lady Kasumi from him."
"You tried your best Haku" Naruto told him "It's just that when Orochimaru attacked, no one expected him to show up and try to capture Kasumi that time."
"Even I was useless against Orochimaru that time" I said "The only thing that saved me and you Haku was me Synchro Summoning Stardust Dragon for real."
"Which put you on a one week strain" Haku admitted he turns to Aang, Katara, and Sokka "Trust me and Lady Kasumi on this, I do think that Orochimaru could even get past Toph's abilities. He is a Sannin and has many evil tricks. In fact this Sannin doesn't think twice about using Forbidden Jutsus and let me tell you there is a reason they are known as Forbidden Jutsu."
"So..." Katara began "You all think Orochimaru will...You know get the information Kasumi is with us?"
"I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't" Iruka-Sensei said "After all Orochimaru was the one that killed all of Kasumi's parents and the other Signers in the first place hoping to use Lady Kasumi against the Leaf Village!"
"But that didn't happen" I said turning to Kakashi-Papa "Because even though they managed to kidnap me...Kakashi-Papa saved me."
Kakashi-Papa seemed to have smiled waving "Of course, I couldn't let Orochimaru kidnap a ten year old girl. Besides the Leaf would never to do that."
"Yeah we'd never stoop that low" Naruto admitted.
"But yet you would try to hurt a girl just for her saying no" I muttered.
"Well, I just wanted to Duel her really bad" Naruto muttered.
"Look she's a great Duelist" I told him "But right now just as I had you Duel against Haku to see if it was possible to teach you Dueling."
"I still don't believe he beat Haku" Hanabi muttered.
Aang turns to Haku "You told me he didn't beat you."
"Too be fair" Haku said "Naruto wasn't Dueling my Real Deck, it was a test deck so."
"Yeah that one didn't count" Naruto told Aang "And I did get to have my chance to Duel against Haku, but I wasn't able to defeat Haku while he used his own deck...The only ones he's lost to using his true deck as my sis and mother Aki. He's won most of his Duels."
"Oh" Aang said.
A couple of hours and Aang turns towards Toph as he and the blind girl were preparing to Duel against each other. Katara was using her Water Bending skills to heal Naruto.
"Naruto..." she mutters to him "Why do you always have to get beaten up."
Naruto just shrugs "Who knows."
We then returned our attention to Aang and Toph.
"Are you ready Twinkle Toes?" Toph asked him.
"Of course" Aang told her.
"Then" Toph said to him "It's time for our Duel."
Aang just nods as the two activate their Duel Disks then shouts "DUEL!"
"Good luck Aang" I said.
"Thanks" Aang said.
Then the two began their Duel as the beginning scores began.
(Aang's Life Points: 4000)
(Toph's Life Points: 4000)
"Alright Aang" Toph said "Sense I'm a girl, I go first."
Aang nods "Go on!"
"Then it's my move" Toph said "I draw!" she drew her card.
She then looks at Aang "First I'll start by summoning my a Mine Golem to the field in defense mode."
Mine Golem appears on her side of the field and it was in defense mode. (DEF: 1900, ATK: 1000)
Seeing this Aang knew as well as I did that if he destroyed Mine Golem by battle he'd be taking five hundred points of damage.
"Next" Toph began "I'll be setting one card face down, turn end."
"Well then" Aang began "It's my turn, I draw!"
He drew his card.
"Alright then Toph!" Aang told her "I'll summon my Wind Shield Archer in defense mode!"
Aang's Wind Shield Archer appears on the field and it is also in defense mode (DEF: 1600, ATK: 1000)
"Oh and what are you planning Twinkle Toes?" Toph asked.
"This" Aang said "I'll activate Wind Shield Archer's special ability! Once per turn as long as he's in defense mode, he can automatically destroy one monster on your side of the field!"
"What?" Toph demanded and Aang pointed outward "I'll show you, go Wind Shield Archer, destroy Mine Golem! Go, Wind Piercing Arrow!"
The shielded archer brought an arrow to it's bow the fired. The wind arrow strikes Mine Golem and destroys it.
"Now" Aang said "I'll be setting three cards face down, turn end."
"Then it's my move" Toph said "I draw!"
She drew her card "Alright Aang, it looks like I might've underestimated you, but that won't happen again, I activate my Rock Cave Field Spell Card!"
"Uh-oh" Sokka muttered as Toph's Field Spell appears "Now Aang's in for it!"
"And this might be a long Duel" I admitted.
Aang looks around the Field Spell, even he knew it was a problem.
"Next" Toph began "I activate the Field Barrier Continuous Spell Card-"
"How did I guess she had that Spell?" Hanabi asked.
"Because you were the one that I seen it's potential from" Toph told her she turns to Aang "Now Twinkle Toes with this Continuous Spell Card in play, you won't be able to destroy the Field Spell I have out and it also prevents you from playing your own Field Spell Card!"
"Next" Toph began "I'll activate my face down Card Earthly Revival!
With this she activated her Spell Card "Now with this card I can not only bring back my Mine Golem! But Special Summon it onto the field!"
With this she brought her Mine Golem back in ATK mode (ATK: 1000, DEF: 1900)
"Next" Toph began "Thanks to my Field Spell, my Mine Golem can attack directly, go Battle, Mine Golem Attack Aang Directly!"
Aang watches as the attack punches out at him and he takes it. (Aang's Life Points: 3000)
"That's fine Toph!" Aang told her "I activate my Trap Card: Attack and Receive!"
One of Aang's Trap Cards activated "Now I can only activate this Trap Card when I receive damage to my Life Points which I have, now this card inflicts seven hundred points of damage to you!"
The Trap Card sent it's effect at her and she takes it as her Life Points lower. (Toph's Life Points: 3300)
"Not bad Twinkle Toes" Toph told him "But I set three cards face down, turn end."
With this she set her last two Trap Cards face down.
"Then it's my turn!" Aang announced "I draw!"
Aang drew his card.
"Alright then Toph!" Aang announced "It's time I get down to business, I'll now activate Wind Shield Archer's Special Ability, remember Toph, once per turn while he's in defense mode he can destroy one monster on the field! Go destroy her Mine Golem with Wind Piercing Arrow!"
"Not so fast!" Toph announced "I'll activate the Trap Card: Earth Spike!"
One of Toph's face downs activated "Now I can only activate this Trap Card when the Field Spell Rock Cave is in effect, and I have at least one Rock-Type Monster now I get to negate one monster's effect!"
An Earth Spike appears intercepting Wind Shield Archer's arrow sparing Mine Golem.
"Then" Aang began "It's still my move and with this I'll be summoning my Mist Valley Solder Tuner Monster!"
A weird blue winged beast appears on the field (ATK: 1700, DEF: 300)
"And now Toph" Aang tells her "I'll activate the Spell Card Double Summon which will allow me to Summon one more monster."
"So which one?" she demanded.
"So" Aang told her "I'll bring out my Mist Valley Thunderbird!"
A strange yellow bird appears on the field. (ATK: 1100, DEF: 700)
"A level four Tuner and a Level 3 Non-Tuner" Naruto said "It can only mean one thing!"
Sokka then answered "Synchro Summoning time!"
I gave out a small smile at my brother and Sokka.
"Not quite yet" Aang said which caused the two to fall onto their faces "Time for Battle!"
"Have you forgotten my Field Spell's special effect Aang?" Toph asked "While you attack one of my monsters you must choose to ether attack or not attack."
"Which I will" Aang said "I'll attack once with my Mist Valley Soldier!"
"Oh then guess which of my face down monster cards is Mine Golem but keep in mine I do have an Earth Token."
"I shall go with it!" Aang announced.
Mist Valley Soldier attacked but I saw Toph smiling "You missed"
Mine Golem became active but Aang wasn't out "Then here comes a second attack go Mist Valley Thunderbird!"
"Once more" Toph said "I'll activate the effect of my Field Spell."
"But I'm still going threw!" Aang announced but he missed again.
"All out of attacks" Toph said smirking "Too bad."
"I'm not out of attacks yet!" Aang told her "I activate my Trap Card: Urgent Tuning!"
"YES!" I squealed like a fan girl.
Aang's face down card activated and I squealed.
"You like seeing dad's combos don't you sis?" Naruto asked me.
"How can I forget this combo, it has saved our father more than once!"
Haku just smiled "A great idea for Aang to use this Trap Card."
"Now Toph" Aang said to her "Now I can preform a Synchro Summon during my Battle Phase!"
"Sounds impressive" Toph told him.
"And it is" Aang announced "Because now I'm tuning my level three Mist Valley Soldier Tuner Monster with my Level four Mist Valley Thunderbird!"
Mist Valley Soldier split into four rings which scanned Mist Valley Thunderbird as Aang chanted "The heaven's winds blow cheerfully, let the winds cry thunder! Synchro Summon...Sound your thunder, Mist Valley Thunder Lord!"
Mist Valley Thunder Lord appears in a blazing white light. (ATK: 2600, DEF: 2400)
"And now" Aang told Toph "I activate Mist Valley Thunder Lord's effect by sending one card I control to my hand I can have him gain five hundred more attack points until the end of my turn, so my Wind Shield Archer goes back into my hand!"
Wind Shield Archer went back into Aang's hand and Mist Valley Thunder Lord gained more attack points. (2600-3100)
"But that's not all" Aang warned Toph "Because I activate the Trap Card: Synchro Strike!" Aang's last Trap Card activated allowing him to announce it's effect "Now I can target one Synchro Monster and it gains five hundred more attack points for each monster that was used to Synchro Summon it! Until the End of the turn."
"So that's!" Toph shouted.
"That's right" Aang told her "One thousand more attack points!" (3100-4100)
"And now" Aang told Toph "Here it comes! Another battle Mist Valley Thunder Lord attack Mine Golem!"
"You'll have to get passed Rock Cave's effect!" Toph announced.
"And this time I shall accept the challenge and IT will go threw!" Aang told her.
"That is yet to be known" Toph told him.
Then she let out a gasp as Mist Valley Thunder Lord truly just like Aang told her strikes Mine Golem destroying it.
"Take that!" Aang announced as Toph's Life Points lowered to their last two hundred.
(Toph's Life Points: 200)
"Nice one Aang!" Sokka and Katara shouted.
"Not bad Twinkle Toes" Toph said to him "But you aren't off the hook yet, when Mine Golem is destroyed you take five hundred points of battle damage!"
Aang took it and his Life Points drop (Aang's Life Points: 2500)
"And now" Toph shouted "I'll activate my Continuous Trap Card: Rock Monster's Surprise!" a new Trap Card activate and I looked at it cursorily. This had a picture of a huge Rock Monster appearing from a wall of a cave as she announced it's effect "Now while this remains on the field, I can bring back one Rock Type Monster that was destroyed! So Mine Golem come on back!"
Mine Golem appears and is in defense mode. (DEF: 1900, ATK: 1000)
Toph looks at Aang "Sadly when this Trap Card's effect activates during the end of your Battle Phase, you gain Life Points equal to the revived monster's level times one hundred."
(Aang's Life Points: 2900)
"Then" Aang said "I end my turn!" With this Aang's monster's attack turned back to normal (4100-2600)
"It's my move" Toph said "I draw!"
She drew her card "It appears you were more than enough to combat me in this Duel but things are about to turn, I activate the Spell Card: Card of Sanctuary!"
A blue light appears over both Duelist's heads as Toph announces it's effect "Now we both get to draw until we have six cards in our hand."
She and Aang draw until they get six cards in their hand.
"Which is good" Toph said "Because now I activate the Continuous Spell Card: Earth Bending Will! Now I get to special summon two more Mine Golem!"
Two more Mine Golem appear but Toph isn't out of the blue yet "Next" she said "I'll summon the Stone Princess Tuner Monster onto the field!"
A Stone Princess appears on the field (ATK: 1000, DEF: 1600)
"Now" Toph said "I'll tune my Level four Earth Knight Tuner Monster with my Level four Mine Golem!"
Earth Knight splits up into four rings as it scanned the level four Mine Golem as she chanted out " Mighty Earth beneath my feet, hear thy call bring your rock hard defense. Synchro Summon: Burst Limestone Gargoyle!"
Toph's Synchro Monster appears on the field (ATK: 2500, DEF: 3000)
"This should be interesting" Haku said and I nodded "You bet!"
"And now" Toph said "I'll activate my Trap Card Minefield Explosion!"
Toph then explained "Now Aang, you'll take one thousand points of damage per Mine Golem on the field! Then I lose my Golem!"
There was a minefield that went off underneath Aang's feet.
"Take that!" Toph shouted but she got the surprise of her life when Aang stood there "What is this?" Then she felt Aang activate a Trap Card no it wasn't a Trap Card "It's all thanks to my Ring of Defense Quick-Play Spell Card!" he announced "When activated it makes the effect damage I would've received for that effect zero!"
"Not bad Twinkle Toes" Toph told him "But not good enough thanks to my Field Spell Card, Limestone Gargoyle will attack directly! Go Limestone Pierce!"
Limestone Gargoyle attacks Aang and Aang takes it. His Life Points fall. (Aang's Life Points: 400)
"Next" Toph said as if she was sensing victory "I end my turn."
"It's my move!" Aang said "I draw!"
Aang takes a look at the field at his monster at one hundred time stronger it possessed the power to destroy Toph's Monster but he knew it's effect allowed it to not take any Battle Damage or be destroyed in Battle.
He got an idea "Well Toph, it's been fun Dueling you but in the end the six extra cards you gave me help me out big time!"
"How so?" She demanded.
"Simple" Aang said to her "I'll activate the Quick-Play Spell Card Mystical Space Typhoon, it'll allow me to destroy one card on anyone's side of the field! So I choose your Field Spell!"
"Foolish Aang!" Toph shouted "Thanks to Field Barrier on the field it takes the hit instead of my Field Spell!"
"That's what I wanted it to do" Aang told her.
"What?" Toph demanded.
"It's quite simple" Aang told her "Because now I activate my next Spell Card Heavy Storm!"
"Oh no!" Toph shouted.
"Oh yes" Aang told her "Your Card of Sanctuary! Now all Spells and Trap Cards are destroyed!"
A storm brewed destroying every Spell and Trap Card on the field leaving Toph with only her Limestone Gargoyle to defend herself with.
"Next" Aang told her "I'll Summon back to the field my Wind Shield Archer in defense mode!"
Wind Shield Archer appears and is in defense mode. (DEF: 1600, ATK: 1000)
"And now" Aang announced "I'll have my Wind Shield Archer activate his special ability, it allows me to destroy one monster on the field!"
"Not so fast!" Toph shouted "I'll activate Limestone Gargoyle's Special ability! I can negate your monster's effect! Limestone Barrier!"
"Was hoping you'd do that!" Aang told her "Because now I activate Mist Valley Thunder Lord's ability to send Wind Shield Archer back into my hand so that he can gain five hundred more attack points...Again!"
Once more Aang's Wind Shield Archer was sent back into his hand. It was Mist Valley Thunder Lord gained five hundred more attack. (2600-3100)
"Oh-no!" Toph shouted "I feel right into that trap! If Limestone Gargoyle uses it's ability to negate the effect of a monster...It negates it's other effect!"
"That's right you fell for it!" Aang told her "And now Mist Valley Thunder Lord attack Limestone Gargoyle!"
Mist Valley Thunder Lord obeyed striking Limestone Gargoyle and destroyed it ending Aang in a victory! (Toph's Life Points: 0)
"And the Duel is over!" Aang announced he looks at Toph "So will you teach me now?"
Toph looks at Aang "Of course Aang, a promise is a promise. But you must be prepared to train your hardest out."
"Of course!" Aang said.
Toph turns to him as we were about to leave but Zeus appears starling Sokka "LADY KASUMI!"
"I didn't do it" I told him.
"Nice try" He told me "Only you can summon him!"
"He's a God!" I told Sokka "Gods can do whatever they want!"
"Calm down everyone" Zeus warns us "Oh boy..."
"What's wrong Lord Zeus?" I asked him.
Zeus looks at us "This isn't a thing..."
Aang and I looked at each other then to Zeus as he asks out "What's up Mighty Zeus?"
The Greek God looks before us "A new type of God Card is coming out" he told us.
"God Card?" I asked then Haku gasped "You can't be serious Zeus, if you are talking about the God Cards from the Ancient Egyptians...No one knows where they are!"
"Not those ones" Zeus said.
"T-T-T-T-The Earthbound Gods?" I asked him nervously.
"Surprisingly not those ones" Zeus responded "Something that matches the God Cards...The powerful Titans Cards."
"Titan Cards?" I asked.
Zeus looks upon us "Cards that were made by us the Greek Gods ourselves...Someone...Most likely Hades stole them from us."
"Sounds like something your brother would do" I muttered.
Zeus looks at us "The Titan Cards have the power to rival the Ancient Egyptian God Cards...Certainly in the wrong hands, they can and will destroy the world."
"But what if they fall in good hands?" I asked.
Zeus looks at us "Then the world could be at peace."
"How powerful are these Titan Cards?" Naruto asked Zeus.
"Stronger than your Sphinxes" Zeus answers and Naruto is seen pouting and muttering "Everything seems to be stronger than my Sphinxes."
"There, there brother" I said patting my brother's back.
Zeus looks at us once more "Be warned, these Titan Cards can only be used by a certain person. There are five of these Titan Cards and each powerful and dangerous."
I looked at Zeus "I'm not sure how we will do it but if there is some way to get you these Titan Cards back to you we will!"
Zeus looks down at us "You all mean it?"
"Of course" Aang told him "As the Avatar I can't let any more despair come into the world wither it's from the Fire Nation, Sound Village or even these Titan Cards, I can't let the world be destroyed."
"If Aang says so then were in" Iruka-Sensei said.
Naruto gives Zeus a wink "You got it Mighty Zeus, this future Hokage won't back down!"
"Agreed" Haku said and the vote was unanimous.
Zeus looks at us "You are all very brave, but be warned, if you ever come into contact with the one that has a Titan Card, you are in for a Shadow Duel."
"Shadow Duel?" Naruto blinked.
"As in a Duel where if we lose Life Points we lose our lives?" Aang asked.
"Yes" Zeus said.
This caught us off guard. Hanabi, Haku, Naruto and I knew the dangers of these Duels, we had nearly been killed dueling against the Brainwashed Signers. Now we were in for it again.
"But do you know who has these Titan Cards?" I asked him.
"No" Zeus responded "But if they do the those Titan Cards would be considered fake."
"Fake?" everyone asked.
"Yes" Zeus said "As these Titan Cards can only be used by a selected person Lady Signer, being a Signer you are entitled to a Titan Card."
"Okay so I can have one..." I paused.
"Yes" Zeus said then he explained more "Only by defeating whoever has a 'fake Titan Card will you obtain the real version after the Duel."
He looks at us "Are you all prepared to face death if you Duel against these Titan Cards?"
I gave him a nod "Of course, Like Aang, I can't let my friends and family be destroyed, I won't back down!"
"I'm in" Haku said.
"Count this girl in" Toph said.
"Same here" Aang told him.
"Oh, I'll try my luck at it!" Naruto said.
"You are all very brave" Zeus told us "Then good luck...I'll be watching."
With this Zeus was off. Toph turned to Aang "Well we might as well start your training Twinkle Toes."
"Alright!" Aang shouted.
So my whole Ninja Squad, Kakashi-Papa and Naruto watched over Aang's training for the Fire Nation. This new information that the Titan Cards had been stolen from the Greek Gods was disturbing, I had thought the Earthbound Gods were scary and terrifying, these Titan Cards...Sounded even more terrifying.
End of chapter.
Uh-oh it looks like trouble is on the horizon. What are these Titan Cards and which of our hereos have what it takes to get one? Many answers will come in the upcoming chapters! Chapter 16: Olympian Dragon vs. Boltos-The Lighting Titan.
Card of the Chapter: Even though there was a Duel in this chapter, due to Aang being trained at the moment, we are unable to do one today! Next chapter is a promising one.
