Arthur: Come, The Representation of my soul! Major Knight Godwinson!

A shining light came from the portal and ascended all the way up to the sky. A dark shade appeared over said sky as a figure materialized on the field. The lord of knights named Godwinson had shown himself.

Godwinson was a tall lumbering man that stood over the various other monsters on the field.
He had golden brown hair that shined in the moonlight. He had steel plated armor that lined his bulging muscular chest. On his side was a long sword named Etheria that could slice through any foe that came his way.

This monster truly suited the honorable and noble. Arthur.

Major knight Godwinson
Tempo +4
Light/Warrior
Atk 2500 Def 2100

Arthur: This knight is the end for you, pathfinder!

Pathfinder: …..

Arthur: Godwinson is the combination of all the honorable knights of Auidwen. He's got more than enough power to defeat you.

Pathfinder: does he?

Arthur: His hope, His dreams, His aspirations are all the result of years of fighting through the darkness and into the light!

Arthur pressed his hands forward and looked hopefully to his new found monster. Everything was looking hopeful in this situation as he had summoned his ace. The tides of this duel hadn't changed per se, but they were certainly sweeping over the beaches of promiscuity into hope.

The pathfinder though, was not amused. He merely sighed with his face behind his mask.

Pathfinder: Avaste ye! Don't you think you're getting a bit too cocky?

Arthur: Huh?

Pathfinder: Did you really think I? The pathfinder, Wouldn't have predicted this!

The pathfinder mugly flipped his masked hair and pressed a button on his duel disk. A card activated and the world turned upside down.

Pathfinder: I activate my trap card - Solemn warning!

A trap card flipped over on the field. Its nefarious artwork showed a man putting his hand out to a group of angels.

Arthur immediately gasped as he seemed to know what this card did.

Pathfinder: By Paying 2000 life points, I can negate the summoning of one monster!

Pathfinder LP: 4600

A bolt of lightning came out of the trap card and struck the loving knight right in his chest causing him to hunch over and disintegrate. It was so fast that neither arthur or reishi could nor wanted to see it. Nothing was left of the knight but a husk of armor that sizzled under the electrified heat of the warning.

Arthur: …

Arthur was silenced. He seemed crushed.

Reishi: (...)

Arthur: …..

Pathfinder: AHAHAHAHAHAHAH! -And you had this grandiose speech too! You were soooo excited to kick my ass you had completely forgotten about the possibility that I had prepared for this!

The pathfinder exclaimed while wagging his fingers.

Reishi: (Oh no, Poor Arthur….)

Reishi: (He probably predicated his whole strategy on trying to get godwinson on the field. Now He's in an even worse position than before as he's wide open and has few cards in his hands.)

Pathfinder: *Tsk Tsk* You don't have many options left. You only have so few cards in your hand and no cards on the field.

Pathfinder: Thine has been served a justice so sweet, that it would even make anne hathaway blush!

The pathfinder posed and cackled. Much to his surprise, Arthur began to cackle too.

Arthur: Hahahaha….!

Pathfinder: ….?

Arthur: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Both the pathfinder and reishi were alarmed at reishi's outburst.

Arthur: Now this is what dueling is about!

Arthur: Being against the wall and having barely anything to go on is the best part!

Reishi: Arthur…..

Arthur's attitude reminded reishi of her father in many ways. His unwavering attitude, His hearty laugher and his alluring figure.

Arthur: - But I'm not done yet! I activate a spell card - Selected Rebirth!

A bright light appeared on the field as three brown objects came from said light. Those three brown objects were cards and mischievously floated in the air like teasing parrots. They floated adjacently to each other in a horizontal fashion and were cute.

Reishi: (Selected rebirth…. That's another gamble Arthur is taking.)

Reishi: (That card allows you to choose 3 cards from your graveyard and present them to your opponent, though your opponent doesn't know what they are. They then choose one of those cards and it's a monster you can special summon it.)

Reishi: (Arthur might've picked his godwinson knight among those cards. If he did and the pathfinder selects it, it might turn the tide of this duel back to him!)

Those thoughts bounced through Reishi's head.

Arthur: Now listen up chap! Here's what's going to happen.

Arthur explained what reishi had already thought to the pathfinder. The pathfinder seemed disgruntled but amused at the concept.

Pathfinder: Kehehe. What an interesting card. Its like one of those old game shows!

He exclaimed.

Pathfinder: Fine, I'll pick a card!

The three cards floated in the air in front of him. He glared at each of them.

Pathfinder: I always leap from the air from the left, So I'll choose the left one!

*Shing*
The card shined and flipped over like a coin. It revealed itself to be minor knight ublachar!

Arthur: Come back, My monster!

Ublachar was summoned back from the graveyard. She looked as sexy and new as before with no noticeable changes.

Arthur: Next, I'll activate an equip card! Claymore sword!

Arthur activated a card that he thought would change the tide of the duel.
The card replaced ubalchar's sword with a long blade that seemed to be made of soft tone and brittle metals.

Arthur: Claymore sword increases my monster's atk points by 400!

Minor Knight Ublachar
Atk 2100!

Pathfinder: Avaste ye. I think I see where this is going….

Arthur: That's right! Battle phase!

Arthur got serious, his face was determined while the battle phase started.

Arthur: Cheerio! I'll attack your dark world dragon!

Ublachar took her new sword and turned it in a clockwise fashion. She looked disgustingly at the dragon, his new ending evil sickened her.
"Haa!" She took a deep breath as she charged toward the monster that she was going to cut into pieces!

Pathfinder: I was anticipating that, you fool! I activate a trap card - Dark world preservation!

A trap card flipped over and revealed itself to arthur and reishi. Suddenly a dark mist came from said card and spewed onto the field. The mist was heavy and musty like chlorine gas. It surrounded the pathfinder's dragon like a shield and protected it.

Pathfinder: For the rest of this turn, My 'dark world' monster can't be destroyed by battle!

"Ha!"
As the maiden slashed through the dragon, The mist obfuscated her view and caused her blade to miss the mark. The dragon was still in piece and the pathfinder chuckled.

Pathfinder: *Sigh* -But I still take the damage.

Pathfinder LP: 6200

Arthur: Heh, Well it's a good thing that 'claymore sword' has a special effect!

Pathfinder: ….?

Arthur: It allows my monster to attack twice!

Ublachar smiled as she got a second chance to attack the devious dragon. She turned her sword sideways and attacked again. It was pretty much a replay of the previous attack except with more grunting from the maiden.

Pathfinder LP: 6000

Arthur: ...

Arthur shed a wide British grin and said:

Arthur: As you can see, Even when I have a setback, I always find a way to press forward.

Pathfinder: I'll surely admit that you turned around a bad situation into a manageable one but….

Pathfinder: The pathfinder yields to no one! This next turn I'll surely destroy you.

The pathfinder posed with both of his arms going down his body length.

Arthur: You really think that? We'll see.

Arthur said and ended his turn.

The pathfinder's mask twinkled in the moonlight of this illustrious city. His cape fluttered in the wind that was produced by the moving of the planet through our solar system. His sparkling medieval shoes stood on the earth that gaia - the embodiment of our plant had made for him. Everything seemed to align for him as he prepared for this next turn.

Pathfinder: I draw!

He placed his illustrious hand on his deck and slickly drew a card from it. He didn't even have to look at the card to know what it was.

Pathfinder: Ahahaha.

he began to chuckle maniacally.

Pathfinder: AHAHAHAHA! It's here!

He cackled.

Without looking, he slammed a card into the side port of his duel disk.

Pathfinder: I activate a field spell - Gates of the dark world!

A dark crackling noise could be heard as the space behind the pathfinder began to change. The earth behind him began to split into two with several pieces of metal flying out like discs. These pieces of metal then expanded under the moonlight to form two long nefarious doors that combined together to form a gate that spanned the heavens. The gate was dark blue in color and had a purple mist spew from it.

Pathfinder: Behold my beautiful gate! Hahahaha!

Arthur: Oh no. A gate! The worse thing is upon me!

Arthur sarcastically said in response!

Pathfinder: You're right! The worse is upon you!

Reishi: (What could he mean?)

Pathfinder: My Dark world gate has many effects but the first one is that it boosts all of my monsters by 300 atk!

Dark world dragon

Atk: 2200

Dark world sillva

Atk: 2600

Pathfinder: Ahahaha! You fool You've been underestimating me since when began and now your going to pay the price!

Arthur: Gurk!

Arthur flinched in response to the pathfinder's words. The pathfinder snapped his fingers and did his next move.

Pathfinder: By banishing one card from my graveyard, I can discard another from my hand.

Reishi: Uh Oh, I don't like this.

Reishi said to herself.

A card in the pathfinder's graveyard mysteriously disappeared as he put another one in his graveyard.

Pathfinder: That's not all kids! The card I discarded was dark world gren!

A fiendish looking monster popped up from a purple vortex in the graveyard!

Pathfinder: When He's discarded I get to destroy spell or trap on the field! Aha…

The pathfinder glared at arthur's two facedown cards like they were women on the beach. He licked his lips and declared:

Pathfinder: I'll destroy the one on the left.

The fiend screeched as a blast of darkness came out of his mouth. The blast traveled across the field like lightning and struck arthur's facedown card. The card was revealed as mirror force and it made him cringe.

Pathfinder: Really? Mirror force? How Simple.

Arthur: What Can I say. I'm a simple lad.

Pathfinder: Yeah I can tell by the girl you're hanging out with.

Reishi: H-Hey!

Pathfinder: -But enough hypothetical misogyny! Let's end you!

The pathfinder giggled like a little girl.

Pathfinder: …. I'll activate an effect of a monster in the graveyard!

He said with a serious tone.

Arthur: a monster in the graveyard?

Pathfinder: Yup. By returning one dark world monster to my deck, I can summon him from the graveyard.

Reishi: W-Who is he?

Pathfinder: A monster so terrifying, so scary that even I can't control him!

Arthur: Are you serious?

Pathfinder: Eh. Maybe. Its a card game. Of course I can control him.

He coyly replied.

Pathfinder: -But Mortals behold the power of Grapha, Dragon Lord of the dark world!

Dark world dragon disappeared into a smog of nothingness as an evil cackle could be heard. A dark mist quickly came from the gate behind the pathfinder. The mist quickly swelled around the alleyway and blinded both Arthur and Reishi.
*Bang Bang Bang*
Loud and creeping footsteps could be heard coming from the gate. They shook the ground beneath them, nearly causing an minature earthquake. It felt like a giant was marching through those doors and was about to force himself onto the world.
*Creek*
The gate finally opened and revealed the terrifying monster. Grapha was a huge beast that towered above the alleyway. He was about 40 feet tall and 29 feet wide. He had a monsterish gray color that reflected under the shade of the moon. His long and slender head strutted outward from his neck, Long Slimy scales combed the ends of its back, They each symbolized the power of this dragon lord.

Grapha, Dragon Lord of the dark world.
Level 8
Dark/Fiend
Atk 3000 Def 1800

Pathfinder: *Tsk Tsk Tsk* Now I hope you understand the true extent of my power.

The pathfinder dabbed.

Reishi: 3000 Atk!?

Arthur: Unbelievable. He summoned that monster just by tributing one dark world creature. Truly an interesting card.

Reishi: (You're complimenting him now, of all times.)

Pathfinder: Flattery will get you nowhere with me. It'll only lead you to a silent doom.

He said.

Pathfinder: I won't lie, Our bout truly has been fun and all, But I think it's we end this!

The Pathfinder threw his right hand out in a pose. His fingers twitched like a spider and hair fluttered. He looked a bit dorky but Arthur could tell he meant business.

Pathfinder: Now My Dragon Lord will attack you directly!

*ROAR!*

Grapha, The dragon lord roared a mighty one. He used the enormous wings on his back to fly up into the sky. With the moon to his back, he opened his gaping mouth which had hundreds of teeth that were all sharpened to the bone. A purple light came from his throat and into his mouth. Time seemed to slow down as this purple light turned into a laser.

This laser fired from the dragon's mouth at the speed of light. Seconds later an explosion rang out in the alleyway.

Reishi: Arthur!


Author's note: Hi Hoooooooo!

I hope your all doing well! I know I am (😅😅😅)

Anyway I think I have to explain why my updates on this story are taking too long.

With the coronavirus pandemic now sweeping across the globe, many including me have been confined into their homes. This has had a profound effect on my writing abilities both physically and mentally. You see, I use to be able to write on my workplace computer and I'd usually finish at least one chapter at work. But since My job laid me off and I'm living at home with my parents, I can't do that now.

My laptop at home is really shitty and breaks down constantly, so its really hard to write fiction on it.

Mentally, I've been a wreck. After about 3 months in quarantine, I've had some time to reflect on my life and realize how crappy it really is. I've never accomplished anything. All I do is mooch off of others. I went to antigua in 2016 to find myself but all I did was get F-ed by a boyfriend who I didn't deserve in the first place.

What am I?

So thats why the updates on this story are taking so long. I'm sorry.
