"Don't underestimate me!" I yelled.
"Attack, my deathstalker synthesia clone!" I ordered.

The creature jumped into the air and raised its tail, Venom started pouring out like a faucet out of a sink. My deathstalker lunged its tail at the other one, Preparing to destroy it once and for all. I clenched my fist and my feet at the thought of ending this once and for all. I don't believe she has any other monsters powerful enough like this one, So If I destroyed deathstalker synthesia, I believe I could end this duel on my next turn.

" You fool! Did you really believe that it would be this easy?" Ghaslia cackled.
"Gah….!" As the ghoul said those lines, My deathstalkers tail missed the original deathstalker's body and fell to the ground, destroying itself. My last hope was gone in the wind just like my friends soul.
"No….!" I fell to my knees in shame…. My Last hurrah had turned into my final whimper.
Was there no hope in the world? Was there no light at the edge of darkness? Am I doomed?

"Haydn….Wyatt...Joyce…. I'm sorry, But I couldn't save you all."

I slummed my head in defeat, It seemed like no matter what I did. I would always fail….

"Hmph? Are you done with your turn? May I finally end this charade, once and for all?" Ghaslia asked.
"..." I couldn't bring myself to respond.
" Fine then. I'll start my turn! I draw!" The ghoul's hand flared up as she a magical card from her deck. I still felt hopeless as the situation deteriorated even further..
"Hahahaha." A fiendish smile appeared from the ghoul's devilish mouth. I could tell once again, she had something fiendish planned.
"It's about time….. we end this feud!" She exclaimed.
" A spell card will now activate - Chains of Numidia!" A spell card appeared on the field. A metal object burst out of the card and came flying towards me.

Chains, the ultimate symbol of oppression wrapped around my body. They were so tight that I could feel them squeezing my organs.
"-With this card, You can't activate traps or spells for the rest of this turn!" Ghaslia cackled. With that card….. I won't be able to fight back anymore.
"Now then…..Like I said, This is the end!"
"Attack, My deathstalker synthesia! Dark Liquid Attack!" Ghaslia's words pierced my ears as her mmonster prepared to kill me.
The monster's tail curled up and began to drip a liquid that could only be described as putrid. The tails tip opened up and the liquid spewed out and loaunched towards; Traveling at a speed that I could not even comprehend.

My mind went into a haze as the acid prepared to hit me, It was almost as if I was going into a deep sleep. I felt myself slipping into another dimension as the tides of the earth began to slow down.
The darkness and the light of the world were intermixing within my brain as a new path began to show itself to my being.

"Ah…. What is this!"

An indescribable amount of warmth seemed to envelop my body. It seemed as if someone was hugging me.
"Skye… We're with you!" A voice called out to me.
"J-Joyce….?" I immediately recognized it as joyce, My dear friend who had been stolen from me.
"Yes, Skye, We've always been with you."
"Haydn?" Haydn's voice too….
"Skye, You can't give up! I mean, Who will I play battle-bots with then?" Hahaha… even wyatt.

"How am I hearing all of your voices?" I asked.
"Skye, Were your friends. We share a connection through both soul and mind." Joyce answered.
"We've reached out to you through the spirit world to tell you not to give up." Haydn continued.
"I don't know if I can keep on fighting guys…." I said with despair in my voice.
"Everytime I make a move, Ghaslia has a move to counter it. She's always two steps ahead of me! I can't out-think her!" I stuttered in frustration.
"Skye…. You've been thinking about this all wrong." Wyatt chimed in.
"Huh?"
"Instead of focusing on defeating ghaslia, Focus on restoring the light to the world. That'll lead you to victory…" Haydn retorted. Haydn's words seemed to resonate with my heart despite their cryptic nature.
" Wait, What do you mean? What do I have to do?" I asked with desperation in my voice.
" Sorry, We can't tell you! Plus you're about to snap out of this daydream soon…." Joyce teased.
"Wait-"
"Bye Skye! Avenge our souls." All three of them said together.

I felt my mind being transported out of the weird dimension I seemed to be trapped in.
"Ah!" As soon as I snapped out of it, I saw The scorpion's venom launching towards me. I realized I had to act fast.
(Haydn, Joyce and wyatt are right! I shouldn't give up!)
" I activate Meteorite Philosopher's graveyard effect!" A fire raged inside of my heart as I said that. I could feel the light returning back to my soul and I was reinvigorated.
" What are you on about now?"
"Meteorite Philosopher has a second effect! After spending two turns In the graveyard, He can negate any incoming attack once!" I exclaimed with a smile.

The philosopher soon came out of the graveyard through a sentient portal. He held in his hand a tome that could have the key to human enlightenment. "Ha!" He grunted and held the tome in front of me, blocking the venom from reaching my body.

"DAMMIT!" Ghaslia seemed to lose her patience.
"I SWEAR, I WILL KILL YOU! THIS IS THE LAST TIME YOU MAKE A MOCKERY OF ME!" She screamed out like a mad woman.
"Ghaslia…. You really harbor that much hatred in your heart for me?" I said with gleaming eyes.
"..." She was silent. I could see in her desolate red eyes that the answer was 'yes'.
"Oh, you poor miserable child…." I only felt pity for ghaslia.

" I guess, I'll have to change your point of view. Love is the key to victory not hate!" I proclaimed with enthusiasm.
"Your death is inevitable. I end my turn."

"I Draw!" I placed my hand on my deck and took a deep breath.
" If I don't draw the card I need, I'm finished ." I said with a monotone voice.
My fingers coiled and I slickly took a card out of my deck. I had faith in myself,My friends and my deck and I know they won't let me down.

"Ghaslia…. I don't know how I hurt you or why you hate me….. But that's no excuse for your actions!" I scolded.
"You've done evil actions like steal my friends' souls and torment my dreams!"
"-And now you're getting your comeuppance!" My eyes were as sharp as a razor when I made those bold declarations. I could feel the heat spread throughout my body as I got an entitled feeling of justice.
What are you blabbering about…?" Ghaslia grimaced.
"This is the end for you GHASLIA!"

"I summon Galactic Mistress!"

My soul resonated with the universe as a bright blue light appeared from the sky. The light struck the ground like lightning and caused ghaslia to look away in fear. The blue expanded into a physical form that was so beautiful I almost cried. It was a tall woman with pearly skin, Ivory shoulders and beautiful,gorgeous lips. She wore a long dress that never seemed to end in its length, With severals asteroids and comets lining the whole dress. Her eyes were her most entrancing of her features as they featured all the stars of the past, present and future. This woman…. Her appearance….. They all reminded me of my mother.

"What can that bitch do?" Ghaslia snarled.
" A lot!" I uttered.
"In fact, she is the physical embodiment of hope!"
"Faith…..?"
"Yes. Something you seem not to have! Faith is the key to this world!" I exclaimed.
"Faith is just another useless human buzzword that doesn't mean anything!" Ghaslia yelled.
"No, You're wrong ghaslia! Faith is the trust between us and the universe around us. I have faith in myself, My friends and my loved ones. Thus I have a strong connection to the universe around me." My eyes twinkled with the light of the stars. I could feel a strong energy manifested itself within me.

"This is the culmination of my faith Ghaslia! I activate galactic mistress' special ability!"

A strong light radiated from the lady's chest. The expertise of the universe began to spread out across the field as I relayed the galactic mistress' effect.
"By paying half of my life points and sacrificing herself, This card allows me to summon a LIGHT fusion monster from my extra deck!"
"...!" a minute expression of fear showed itself on the ghouls face. I think she knew… that this was the end.

Skye LP: 500

The light from galactic mistress' body began to expand even further causing a relative wave of light to flow within the atmosphere. A shining green light came followed and it revealed My favorite monster and the one which would bring about the end of ghaslia. The monster with teal eyes, Teal hair and huge cranium that seemed to burst with life and the secrets of the universe. A long dress flowed from her that seemed to wave in the light and had the andromeda galaxy contained within. It was, of course - Andromeda Queen.

Andromeda Queen: (Atk 3500 DEF 3000)

" That….. Monster… Can't destroy mine, even if she has a higher Attack power." Ghaslia wheezed.
" She won't have to! Instead, she can just banish it to another dimension!" I activated andromeda queen's Queen's eyes lit up, They sparkled with the animosity of the galaxy!
A blue rift appeared in the ground, it hovered right beneath deathstalker synthesia and slowly gobbled him up like a meal. The scorpion tried to resist but ultimately it was futile as he was soon lost in the emptiness of space.

"..." Ghaslia had a look of utter despair on her face. She knew that this duel was over and now she was finished. Before I declared my attack, I could hear her mutter: "Lord drothe…. I've failed you…."

"For my friends! Andromeda Queen, Attack her directly!"
A blue flash a light came from the queen's hand. She grunted as a huge blast of light burst out of andromeda queen's dress and traveled across the field. The ghoul didn't even flinch as the attack was coming towards her, All she did was look up towards the sky. The huge blast of light soon enveloped her and ended this duel.
