Yu-Gi-Oh excalibur knights season 1 episode 11:

Episode 11: sunset showdown part 3

(Back at sunset bridge. We continue with the duel of Artie's life).

Margo:

Wait a sec. did he just say his last name was caspien?

Guibo:

Isn't that the name of the guy we were hired by?

Nico:

Well then this day just keeps getting better and better. So kid how did you find us?

Reggie:

I overheard my father talk about the duel and Artie so I decided to just head to this bridge.

Guibo:

Now that I think about it why did we decide to duel this kid here if it's a popular place people go to.

Margo:

(Sighs).

Nico:

Look kid it's cute that you want to help your little friend here but we are real busy dealing with him so back off.

Reggie:

I don't think so. I said I will be your opponent now so leave my friend out of this. (Activates his duel disk).

Duel disk:

Intrusion penalty. Life points cut in half!

(Reggie is then slightly shocked by his duel disk).

Reggie:4000

Margo:

Oh great now we have to deal with 2 brats in this duel.

Nico:

No this is perfect. With caspien's son here we can now probably get double the money than what we were originally offered.

Guibo:

Sweet! I can now definitely owe the tab I have at the candy shop.

Margo:

You know that doesn't sound to bad. And hey with the other kid down we can easily take him out while taking this brat out.

Nico:

Well said. Alright kid you got yourself a deal. Game on!

Artie:350

Reggie:4000

Nico:2750

Margo:7500

Guibo:1500

(Scene cut).

Reggie:

Well then I hope you guy don't mind if I make the next move. I draw! (Draws a card). Since I control no monsters I can special summon this monster from my hand! So welcome to the field terror beast Aztec Phoenix!

Terror beast Aztec Phoenix ATK:2200 DEF:800

Reggie:

But I am far from done. Next I normal summon my terror beast crimson wyvern I attack mode.

Terror beast Crimson wyvern ATK:1500 DEF:950

Reggie:

Now let's even out the playing field a bit. Aztec Phoenix go and attack the pink haired weirdo's facedown!

Margo:

Hey!

(Aztec Phoenix opens its mouth and fires out a shining light that burns the facedown. And out of the facedown we see a human hand crawl out in pain).

Margo:

No my monster!

Reggie:

Your monster won't be the only one taking the hit. Now crimson wyvern attacks you directly!

(Crimson wyvern flies up and charges towards Margo slashing him across the face).

Margo:6000

Margo:

(Growls) you'll pay for that you little punk!

Nico:

Margo relax.

Guibo:

Yeah don't blow a fuse cause the kid got lucky.

Reggie:

Now that things are all evened out. I'll end my turn with a facedown.

(Turn 21).

Nico:

My turn, draw! (Draws a card) so kid, you think you take on 3 top tier duel assassins with one little lucky move like that? Well your wrong and I'll prove it. By sending I spell card from my hand to the grave I can activate this trap from my hand.

Reggie:

Say what?

Nico:

I activate the trap card hidden treasure! When I don't control any monsters on the field I can send 3 monsters from my graveyard into my deck, shuffle my deck and draw 2 cards. (Does so) now I'll set a monster and 1 card facedown and end my turn.

(Turn 22).

Reggie:

Phew. For a second there I thought you were actually gonna continue on your threat.

Nico:

Oh trust me I will.

Margo:

You'll have to get in line Nico this kid is mine.

Nico:

Easy Margo don't go to crazy.

Margo:

Just shut up Nico! I've been pushed too much in this duel and I can only take so much! (After this move I'll make this kid regret ever coming here to save his friend).

(Scene cut).

Margo:

Alright kid your duel ends here! (Draws a card) I summon shocker troop soldier in attack mode.

Shocker troop soldier ATK:1000 DEF:1100

Margo:

Now his effect activates. Since he was normal summoned I can special summon another soldier from my deck. But why stop at 1 when I can bring out 2 more! Now I overlay my 3 level 2 soldiers to xyz summon rank 3, shocker troop lightning cannon!

Shocker troop lightning cannon ATK:1000 DEF:2500

Margo:

And this cannon comes with a little nasty little surprise. When it's xyz summoned it can automatically destroy the weakest monster on your side of the field. Namely your wyvern.

(Lightning cannon gets a lightning cannon ball put into it and it fires a huge surge of lightning at crimson wyvern destroying it).

Margo:

Now for your other monster. I'll have my lightning cannon attack your Aztec Phoenix! Oh I should mention that when lightning cannon attacks a monster in battle it's other effect activates. By using 1 overlay unit it gains 1000 attack for every shocker troop in my hand and since I have 2 it gains 2000 attack points.

Shocker troop lightning cannon ATK:3000 DEF:2500

Margo:

Now lightning cannon demolish this kid's monster!

Reggie:

I don't think so. I play my trap card terror beast shield. My monster is protected in battle and the damage I take gets cut in half.

(The attack bounces off Aztec Phoenix and hits Reggie in the chest).

Reggie:3500

Margo:

(That little twerp. I'm really starting to hate kids. When this is over I'm gonna tell my wife we are not ever gonna have kids).

Reggie:

Your gonna have to do better than that to take me out assassin.

Margo:

Oh believe me kid. I'll do more than take you out. But for now I'll just end my turn.

(Turn 23).

Guibo:

Alright time to make my comeback. (Draws a card and groans). This won't do. I'll end my turn.

(Turn 24).

Reggie:

My move. (Draws a card).

Margo:

Ha! You little fool. Now comes your demise! I activate my facedown card. The continuous spell shock collar!

(The card disappears and we see a shock collar appear on reggie's neck).

Reggie:

What the heck is…

(Before Reggie can finish we see him violently getting shocked).

Reggie:2500

Margo:

Shocking isn't it? With this continuous spell during your draw phase if you draw a monster then that collar will deal you 1000 points of damage. Looks like that draw you got was awful! (Laughs).

Reggie:

Actually. Quite the opposite.

Margo:

Huh?

Reggie:

I sacrifice my Aztec Phoenix to tribute summon terror beast copy alien!

Terror beast copy alien ATK:0 DEF:3000

Margo:

(Laughs) are you serious? That thing was a good draw? Well kid you sure do make a good comedian.

Reggie:

I wouldn't laugh if I were you. Next I activate the effect of terror beast recovery owl from my hand. By sending him from my hand back into my deck I can special summon a level 8 monster from my deck so welcome to my field terror beast moonlight guardian!

Margo:

Big deal.

Reggie:

Oh it's a very big deal! Now my copy alien's effect activates. When a terror beast is special summoned to the field copy alien can copy that monster's level! And now I overlay my 2 level 8 monsters to xyz summon. Rise the king of all terror beasts.

Nico/Margo/guibo:

King of terror beasts?

Reggie:

Terror beast king dragoon, king of the dragons!

Terror beast: king dragoon king of the dragons ATK:3000 DEF:100

(Scene cut).

(Dragoon lets out a mighty roar).

Guibo:

Agh that dragon's scary.

Margo:

Relax fatso. We took out a 1 dragon already. I'm sure we can take out another one!

Reggie:

Well then let's put that to the test then shall we? I activate dragoon's effect. I draw the top 3 cards of my deck and if any of them are terror beasts dragoon gains 800 attack for each one. (Draws 3 cards) and that's a full house! So my monster gains 2400 attack points!

Terror beast: king dragoon king of the dragons ATK:5400 DEF:100

Reggie:

Now then. I'll have dragoon attack your leader. With one of you out the rest of you will be easy. Dragoon attack his life points directly!

(Dragoon pulls his mighty sword out and charges towards Nico).

Guibo:

Nico!

Margo:

No boss. If the attack hits he'll lose the duel!

Nico:

You won't win that easily kid. It's time I taught you a lesson when you mock the duel assassins! I activate the effect of machina trap trickster from my hand. By sending him from my hand it lets me choose a trap from my deck and play it (does so).

Reggie:

That's not possible!

Nico:

And trap I chose was dimensional prison! With this trap I can target a monster on the field and remove it from play. And the monster I chose is your dragoon!

(A dimensional portal opens beneath dragoon and flings him into it).

Reggie:

No way!

Margo:

Nice one Nico!

Reggie:

Fine then. I end my turn.

(Turn 25).

Nico:

My turn (draws a card). And now I'll summon cybernetic steel falcon!

Cybernetic steel falcon ATK:2000 DEF:500

Nico:

Now steel falcon attack the kid directly!

(Steel falcon's Metal beak extends towards Reggie and stabs him hard).

Reggie:500

Donovan:

(No son! But it doesn't matter now. As long as things goes well).

Reggie:

(Kneels onto the ground coughing up blood). (Crap that was one tough attack. Oh well that guy has no more monsters to attack with).

Nico:

And now my monster's effect now activates. If he attacks you directly while you control no monsters then it can attack you again!

Reggie:

Say what?

Nico:

This is the price you pay for meddling in our affairs. Steel falcon attack!

(Steel falcon extends his beak again).

Reggie:

(This is it for me. I'm sorry Artie. I failed to save you).

Artie:

Trap card activate!

(Everyone gasps as they see Artie still standing).

Reggie:

Artie!

Margo:

He's still standing!

Guibo:

Incredible. He survived our combined attack.

Nico:

(This is insane. How strong is this kid?).

Artie:

I activate my facedown trap card magician's barrier! With this trap it negates the battle phase for 2 turns however I have to give up my entire hand (does so).

(Steel falcon's beak stops it's attack and extends back).

Margo:

That little brat!

Nico:

It's alright. They both don't have any monsters on their field. Even if they do on their draw phases they'll still lose this duel.

Margo:

Oh right. Thanks to my spell.

Nico:

Well then. I'll end my turn.

(Turn 26).

(Margo draws his card and ends his turn).

(Turn 27).

(Guibo does the same).

(Turn 28).

Reggie:

Ok. Time to win…

Artie:

Reggie wait. Let me take over.

Reggie:

Are you sure Artie? You're pretty banged up.

Artie:

Yeah I know that. But I have to. I got myself into this mess and I'll get us out of it. Besides I believe in my deck. And it's never let me down before.

Reggie:

Another one of your dad's lessons?

Artie:

Yeah.

Reggie:

Well don't let me stop you man.

Artie:

Thanks. Alright it's my turn!

Margo:

Don't forget kid. Thanks to my spell if you draw a monster…

Artie:

I know. But I'll still make my draw.

King Arthur:

It comes down to one draw correct?

Artie:

Right.

(Artie closes his eyes as he listens to the wind).

Artie:

I… (draws a card… DRAW!

Margo:

So… is it a monster or not?

(Artie slowly reveals his card to be the spell card pot of greed).

Margo:

No way!

Nico:

He lucked out.

Artie:

Luck had nothing to do with it. It's cause i had faith in my deck and it didn't let me down. And seeing as how your continuous spell only works during the draw phase I've got no risk by playing the spell card pot of greed!

(Just then Artie's deck begins to glow).

Artie:

Huh?

King Arthur:

What's this?

(Artie draws the 2 cards. The first is monster reborn and a card he has never seen before).

Artie:

(What is this card? I don't remember ever putting it in my deck. But wait… this could be the card I need to win).

Reggie:

Artie?

Artie:

Don't worry about me reggie. After this turn we're gonna win!

Reggie:

What?

Margo:

(Laughs) oh that's rich. I think this kid suffered brain damage. He actually thinks he can beat us.

Artie:

Oh I do! And the 2 cards I just drew will prove that!

Nico:

Well then kid by all means. Prove it to us!

Artie:

I will! First I activate the spell card monster reborn! With this spell I can bring a monster back from any of our graveyards. But there is only 1 monster I want to bring back. I resurrect my excalibur dragon!

Guibo:

His dragon's back!

Nico:

Relax guibo. We destroyed it before and we can do it again.

Artie:

Not this time. The time has come for my dragon to evolve.

Reggie:

Evolve?

Margo:

The hell are you talking about kid?

Artie:

I'll show you. I now activate another spell card. The spell… soul sword fusion!

Nico:

What?

Margo:

That's…

Guibo:

A fusion card?

Reggie:

Where did he get that card?

Artie:

Thanks to this spell I can bring back a level 6 warrior monster from my graveyard and fuse it with my Excalibur dragon. And the monster I choose is my noble knight escanor!

(A vortex appears on the floor and escanor appears from the vortex).

(Just then Excalibur dragon and escanor's souls leave their bodies and begin to fuse together).

Artie:

The soul of a mighty knight fusing its power with the dragon born from a mighty sword. When these 2 souls combine their power they create the ultimate warrior! I fusion summon! Come forth… Excalibur dragon knight gancelot!

(A flash of light appears and out of the light comes a blond headed warrior with white dragon armor comes onto the field).

Excalibur dragon knight gancelot ATK:3500 DEF:2500

(Scene cut).

(Back at Reggie's house. Everyone is taken back in silence).

Kateshi:

What the hell? Where did that kid get a monster like that? He must have cheated.

Donovan:

(Very clever kid. Only 1 duelist has been able to fuse synchro monsters with other monster only once. Now there's 2 duelist I know who can do it. But let's see how this kid handles this new power he's acquired).

(Back at sunset bridge…).

Reggie:

(Holy crap. This kid is just full of surprises).

King Arthur:

Amazing. Absolutely amazing.

Artie:

Yeah. And this guy is gonna help us win.

(Gancelot turns and nods at Artie).

Margo:

How… how is this kid thinking he can win? Your monster can't even take us all out. You've lost kid so just give up!

Artie:

Not a chance. Now to put this monster's effect to good use. When gancelot is fusion summoned it destroys every single spell and trap on the field.

Nico:

Say what?

(Gancelot puls out his sword and summons up a whirlwind that's destroys all the spells and traps Margo and guibo control).

Guibo:

All our facedowns are gone!

Margo:

That little brat!

Artie:

And there's more. When that happens gancelot gains 1000 attack for each destroyed spell and trap. Since he destroyed 3 cards he now gains 3000 attack.

Excalibur dragon knight gancelot ATK:6500 DEF:2500

Artie:

Now time for battle. Excalibur dragon knight gancelot… go and attack margo's lightning cannon with dragon sword slash!

(Gancelot pulls out his sword charges towards lightning cannon slicing through it destroying it.

Margo:500

Reggie:

Nice work Reggie.

Artie:

Yeah, but my attack is far from over. Cause my gancelot has another effect. When it destroys a monster in battle I can special summon 1 dragon type monster from my graveyard that was used to fusion summon this monster. So welcome back to the field Excalibur dragon!

(Excalibur dragon returns to the field with a mighty roar).

Artie:

Now Excalibur dragon go and attack guibo directly!

(Excalibur dragon charges towards guibo and slashes him cross the chest and sends him flying).

Guibo:0

Nico:

Guibo! (My friend your defeat will not be in vain). You little brat! You may have defeated one of us but you will not beat all of us. Not when I have this. From the grave I activate the spell card oath to a friend! This spell activated when it's in the grave I I target the strongest monster on your side of the field and I take damage equal to it's attack.

Margo:

What did you say?

Nico:

Do not worry Margo. There is an upside to this card it lets you draw 1 card. It's up to you now Margo. Destroy these brats!

(Just then a shock goes through nico's body as he falls to the ground and passes out).

Nico:0

Reggie:

I don't believe it. He gave up his life for his partner.

Margo:

Nico… Nico… (a card pops out from the top of his deck and he draws it and begins to chuckle).

Artie:

That laugh can't be good.

Margo:

You little brats. Your in for it now. With this card I can't lose now. And with you having no more monsters to attack me next turn you 2 will lose and my partners will be avenged. (Laughs).

Reggie:

Sorry to disappoint you but this duel is over.

Margo:

Huh? What are you babbling about kid?

Artie:

Yeah Artie even I don't understand what you mean. Both my monsters can't attack anymore.

Reggie:

Well one of them can. Watch this. From my hand I activate the quick play spell card second attack by giving up my entire hand and 5 monsters from my deck (does so) I can target a monster on our side of the field and it can make a second attack. So I chose Artie's Excalibur dragon.

Margo:

No! This can't be! Wait please spare me!

Artie:

I feel bad for you Margo. And your partners. This was a fun duel but it has to end. Excalibur dragon give 1 final attack with wing blade slash!

(Excalibur dragon's wings light up and he shots 2 energy blades at Margo hitting him hard and knocking him to the ground).

Margo:0

(Artie and Reggie win).

(Artie's and reggie's duel disks deactivate as they both relax and breath).

(Back at reggie's house…).

Tyson:

They… they both won. Incredible.

Donovan:

Well it seems your men weren't up to stuff mr kateshi but they did give enough to…

(Everyone notices that kateshi has disappeared).

(Back at sunset bridge…).

Reggie:

Phew! Glad that was a relief.

Artie:

Reggie. Listen. Thanks for saving me. If you had bet shown up I would've lost that duel.

Reggie:

Hey no worries Artie. I'm more of a friend than just a rival to you. I will always be there to help yo whenever you need it.

Artie:

Yeah I guess your right. Hmm.

Reggie:

What's wrong artie?

Artie:

Reggie. There's something I need to tell you. And I feel like your the one person I can trust before I tell anyone else.

Reggie:

Tell me what?

Artie:

Well… (looks at King Arthur).

King Arthur:

(Nods his head).

Artie:

Well do you remember…

(Before Artie can finish we see a helicopter land on sunset bridge).

Reggie:

That's one of my father's copters.

Artie:

What, why is your father here?

(The copter door opens and we see Donovan walk out with a big smile on his face).

Donovan:

Well, well, well. I'm quite impressed with you Artie. You've really outdid yourself in that duel.

Artie:

You saw me duel?

Reggie:

That's right. Dad your the one that sent those duel assassins after Artie didn't you?

Artie:

What? Sir why?

Reggie:

Tell the truth.

Donovan:

(Sighs) well I suppose there's no use hiding it. Yes I did send those 3 after you Artie. You see… it was another test for you and you passed so here. (Hands artie an envelope) congrats young man your now a contestant in my world duel festival.

Artie:

No way.

Reggie:

Are you serious dad?

Donovan:

Now remember to show up to my grand stadium on the last day of the 3rd week and bring your best if you want your wish to come true. Come on Reggie let's go home and clean you up.

Reggie:

K dad. See you tomorrow Artie. (Goes with his dad).

Artie:

Donovan wait!

Donovan:

(Turns back) yes Artie?

Artie:

I want to tell you what my wish is.

Donovan:

Really. Well I'm all ears.

Artie:

When I win the festival… and I will… (stares at Donovan with determination) I want to face you in a duel.

Reggie:

(Gasps) artie.

(Donovan and artie stare at each other).

Donovan:

(Chuckles) well I'm touched. Let's hope you live up to that promise and do win the festival. Come on Reggie.

(Donovan and Reggie get into the helicopter and leave sunset bridge leaving Artie to watch them leave).

End of episode.
