Reishi and MQ: Let's duel!
Reishi: 8000
MQ: 8000
The winds picked up in the area as the two began to duel. Perhaps the blowing winds were symbolic of the harsh battle to come between the two. Either way this duel would be a key to both reishi and the masked queen's future.
MQ: You can go first, darling.
Reishi: ... Fine.
Reishi agreed.
They both drew their starting hands and began the duel.
Reishi: (I'll start off simple. After all, I don't know what kind of deck she's playing.)
Reishi: I summon musicgal lady ballet!
A cute kawaii girl appeared on the field. She was blond haired, blue eyed and had pink skin. She wore a poofy green dress with overalls that covered her tightly. She carried a small whip in her hand that she used to beat a symphony into her enemies, literally, as the whip had a quarter note at its tip.
Musicgal Lady Ballet
Level 4
Light/Music
Atk 1800 Def 1800
Reishi: Her effect activates! When she's summoned, I can summon another music-type monster from my hand!
Reishi: Come on! Musicgal Hearth Harp!
Musical Hearth Harp!
Level 4
Fire/Music
Atk 1900 Def 1600
From a portal in the ground, came a golden harp . It was long and pristine like a newfound star in the galaxy.
*SLrrrrrrt*
The harp strummed itself and created a new lifeform from that miraculous sound.
It was a tall, crispy and cute seductress. She had orange hair which covered her yellow, lamented eyes. She wore a long gown that came up to her knees, showing very little skin. Her tall stature was in contrast to the other musicgal who was short. Perhaps it was a dark contrast.
Reishi: Finally, I'll activate a spell card! B for Blockade!
Her spell card activated, and a huge wave of light came from the card. The light was so bright that shima and hattori had to shield their eyes to avoid it. Both reishi and the masked queen however looked directly into it. A giant 'B' appeared in front of Reishi, seemingly defending her monsters.
Reishi: This card will stop all attacks from you for two of your turns.
MQ: Hmm. Interesting.
Reishi: I'll end my turn.
Reishi's short and sweet turn had begun this duel with a mundane start. It was practical and methodical but still unexpected in a way.
Reishi: (Ok, this is a good start. I'm going on the defense. Seeing as the last two shadowmancers I faced always started off with a very strong offense, I think this is the best path forward!)
Reishi: (Then again, she is the queen. She could very well play differently. I should prepare for that too.)
Reishi strategized.
Reishi: ('Into the lion's den' as they say.)
MQ: Indeed. But i'm more of a cougar than a lion. Rawr.
The queen postured.
Reishi: D-Did you just read my thoughts?
MQ: Nope. We're just so similar reishi that I always know what you're thinking!
Reishi: We're nothing alike! You're-
MQ: "An evil monster whose terrorized this city for too long!" Is that where you're going to say?
Reishi: *Tch*
MQ: Ah reishi. Such a hero complex. I'll have to break that if your going to be mine one day~
The masked queen winked at her.
MQ: My turn!
She looked at her hand for a couple of seconds before making her move.
MQ: Reishi Dear, I'm sorry for the pain i'm about to inflict on you!
Reishi: (...)
MQ: I summon Shadowprancer assassin!
The assassin was a medium sized person with a nice figure and dagger in hand. They had a cloak over there body like a shadowmancer and carried the symbol of the shadowmancers on their left hand.
Shadowprancer Assassin
Level 3
Dark/Fiend
Atk 1000 Def 1000
MQ: His ability activates! You take 300 Damage!
Reishi: (Oh no, Not this again!)
The prancer took out his dagger and threw it at reishi. The dagger flew through the air before hitting reishi in the thigh, cutting her skirt.
Reishi LP: 7700
Reishi: Gah….
Hattori: Reishi! Are you okay?
Reishi: I'm fine. A little slash can't bring me down!
Reishi assured.
MQ: Mmhmm. Unfortunately my dear there is more pain to come.
MQ: I activate Demonic Duplication!
Reishi: Ah…!
A dark mist began to shroud the field and specifically shadowprancer assassin. The monster disappeared within the mist for about 5 seconds before reappearing. This time he wasn't alone, two more identical monsters appeared alongside him, threatening reishi.
MQ: By paying 1000 life points, I can summon two more copies of one dark-fiend monster on the field.
MQ LP: 7000
MQ: -And just like before you'll take 300 damage by the effect of both of my new shadowprancer assassins!
Reishi: ….!
Both of the new shadowprancers threw their daggers at reishi, Causing her more pain.
Shima: Reishi! Oh no….
Reishi: I-Im fine… I swear.
Reishi LP: 7100
MQ: If you think that's painful then you have much to look forward to, my dear.
MQ: I activate shadow fusion!
MQ: I'll fuse my two shadowprancer Assassins!
A fusion vortex appeared behind the masked queen. The vortex was swirling,purple and beautiful, the queen turned around and smiled at it for a second before continuing. the two assassins fused into one and coalesced within the vortex.
MQ: Fusion summon!
Shadowprancer Hitman
Level 6
Dark/Fiend/Fusion
Atk 2400 Def 2000
From the vortex appeared a large brooding figure, it was a hitman that was Dark all over with a purple Overcoat and a huge caliber Rapid-fire Gun in it's arms. it seemed to have no face at all with a black void being in place of a face.
MQ: His effect activates and you take 1200 damage!
Reishi: Of course...
Reishi rolled her eyes.
Shadowprancer hitman cocked his gun and aimed it at reishi.
*CACK CACK CACK*
The gun made an erratic sound as it was bullets came racing out the gun, perhaps 5 bullets a second flew across the area before hitting her in the abdomen.
Reishi LP: 5900
Reishi.: Ugh...
Reishi moaned in pain as she clutched her stomach. She fell to her knees and groaned some more.
Shima: Reishi!
Shima attempted to run near reishi before being stopped by the queen.
MQ: Nah ah ah~ No interfering!
Shima: Ah!
Dark mist surrounded the playing field, even though it was air, it had a solid quality to it, which essentially acted like a physical barrier preventing shima from helping reishi up!
MQ: My love needs to do this on her own~
Reishi: Ugh….
Reishi: I-I'm fine, Really. Thanks, shima.
Shima: …..
Reishi stood back up and faced the queen. Her resolve was definitely admirable albeit maybe foolish as the queen's was even more solid.
MQ: Ah! Keep that resolve, My love! You'll need it for what comes next!
MQ: I'll use another spell card - Polymerzation!
Reishi: Nani?
MQ: I'll fuse Shadowprancer hitman and shadowprancer assassin on the field with my shadowprancer origin in my hand.
She revealed the 'shadowprancer origin' in her hand as a fusion vortex appeared behind her. The three monster went into the fusion vortex and became a swirling mess of material.
MQ: Come, Shadowprancer Monstrous Hunter!
Shadowprancer Monstrous Hunter
Level 9
Dark/Beast-Warrior
Atk 3200 Def 2200
the ground began to shake. From the shadows of the vortex the wicked beast had appeared.
*ROARRRRRRR* It yelled a mighty roar as it had materialized from the vortex.
It's roar matched it's Monstrous appearance. It resembled all three of it's fusion materials, Shadowprancer origin in the fact that it had ferret features, Shadowprancer Hitman in the fact it was bulky it stronk, And shadowprancer Assassin in that It had a Melee Weapon. It's axe, Which was carved in such a way it split open heads. It was truly a monstrous hunter.
Reishi: (Oh god….)
Reishi remembered this monster from her encounter with the shadowmancers. She still remember that distinctive roar and its monstrous appearance. -But mostly importantly she remembered its effect.
MQ: Due to his effect you're going to take 1600 damage! You'll learn to love this pain, Reishi darling!
Reishi: ….!
The beast pointed its axe at reishi, its sharp pointed tip caused reishi to flinch in fear. The beast roared while glaring at reishi. The Monster whirled around in a spherical motion. the mist around formed into a cyclone surrounding it as this action was performed creating a terror tyclone. His axe began to gain more and more speed while reishi prepared for the worst. Finally he let go of his axe and it hurled towards reishi!
*BOOM*
An explosion occurred as the axe hit reishi dead on, Causing her an insummerable amount of pain. Would she be able to recover or would she succumb? That was the question.
