Chapter fourteen: Bryan's surprise round.
The day starts off semi-normal. From the red light with no star, and the grey mist that seemed to envelope everything, the five boys get a wake up call.
Goblin: "you guys there? C'mon don't keep your host waiting like this…" a cheerful, playful, tone in his voice the Green man clambers around trying to see into the peep hole on the door of the hotel.
Andrew: "what is it this time? You come to shrink any of us again?!" most noticeably, an annoyed rumble in his morning voice, Andrew lets the man in. "Guys get up…" nothing "I SAID GET UP NOW!!!" the screeching of his voice seem to get the other four to hit the ceiling.
Justin, who is picking himself off the floor, "ugh… did you have to be so loud?", rubs his head.
Craig: "by the way you were snoring all night I'm surprised that even phased you." a dark gleam shooting towards justins. A clear indication that he was lacking sleep.
Justin: "hehehe" rubs back of neck…
Bryan: "well we ready or what?" unchecked, Bryan had already gotten himself together.
Feint snoring is heard coming from Riken, who seemed to have gotten color back in his cheeks.
Goblin: "I do hope your friend there gets better soon. His match is up within a day or so. If he doesn't show we will have to disqualify him." with a slight pink glow under the continuous green hue of his cheeks, the green guy walks out the door, almost as if he's waddling.
Bryan: "such a strange guy…" Bryan heads out the door.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Approaching the plaza:
Justin: "we've been walking west for about an hour now. Cant there be a faster way?" drag marks are seen under the fog in the dirt where Justin's feet had been.
Craig, who was on one side of Justin, his head under Justin's arm: "oh just keep quite we're almost there."
Andrew, who was on the other side: "as long as we're carrying you, you shouldn't be complaining."
Justin: "but it sucks that we're back in this mess. I mean how many times am I going to be dragged into this awful place?"
Andrew: "do you think we like this any more than you do? Especially if we have to carry you through every god-forsaken inch of it?"
Bryan: "well we're here…"
The place was huge! It had a practice arena for beginners. It had hd TV's everywhere, and not just the little home theatre models that some people could afford either. These suckers were at least twenty feet across. All overstretching an estimated 100 square mile chunk of land. Just beside was a colossal dueling stadium. At the entrance of the plaza, Justin seemed to come alive. As if someone had lit a fire under his feet.
Justin's 'Yahooooo!' is vaguely heard in the distance. Only a long dust cloud is left from which he stood.
Craig: "Justin! You get back here! You aren't about to run off like this after we carried you all that way! Come back here…."
As Craig runs off in the direction in question, Andrew starts speed walking… "well come on Bryan. We both know that with Justin's lead, he will do nothing but get Craig into trouble." saying this gets a nod back of approval.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Goblin: "well, things are going as planned, I do believe. My lord, why can't you just swoop down and destroy them right n…." the abysmal night raises his hand, immediately seizing the goblin's meaningless babble.
???: "I want them to enjoy their last moments together. Well, before they cripple themselves in this tournament that is."
_____________________________________________________________________________________
As Andrew and Bryan catch up with Justin and Craig, there are many sights to behold. Giant orcs were carrying those big screen high definition televisions. As they worked, the four wondered who was powerful enough to control these muscular powerhouses.
Andrew: "wow! I would even struggle with those things. And yet one giant orc is doing this by himself." a slack jaw only increases the suspicion of awe radiating within Andrew.
Justin: "well, I know you're strong Andrew, but those guys are bulky…" saying this only gets Andrew to start over to one that is carrying a television… "oh no! Andrew stop now! don't tangle with those things!"
Andrew: "oh hush! All I want to do is wrestle one of 'em…"
As the others try and restrain Andrew from the will to test himself, they end up drawing in a crowd. That starts to cheer on Andrew as he struggles to break free of the three person grasp.
Andrew: "Just five minutes. Give me five minutes that's all I'll need… c'mon guys when am I ever gonna get the chance to do this again? Huh?" the three eventually calmed him down enough to make him see how silly that was. "fine. Fine. But after the tournament, he's mine!"
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Back at the hotel:
Andrew sits down on the bed changing the warm rag that was on Riken's head with a newer cold one. Justin continues on the task of looking out the window as if to take on the task for look out. Bryan, as usual continues to look through his deck and question different deck strategies, and Craig helps to turn Riken over enough to help Andrew sponge off the top half of Riken's torso.
Justin: "hey Andrew, I think he needs some attention down below…" a snicker following this tease.
Andrew: "there aint no way I'm even gonna go there! He'll have to do that when he wakes up. Cant be depending on us his whole life! God I hope he's not comatose…" seeing Riken's eyes underneath his closed lids moving around, only got Andrew's sympathy. "lets make this deal Joker." Looking strait at Justin. "if he is comatose, then me and Craig retire now and you get to take over where we left off. Hehehe"
Justin: "I don't think so if I have to…" getting interrupted by Craig.
Craig: "well you were just trying to tell us how to do this right? Well we will leave him to your oh so capable hands." a conniving grin stretches across both Andrew, and Craig's face.
At this, all Justin can do is sigh. For a split second Justin turns his attention towards Bryan to get a reply from a laying down, eyes closed Bryan…
Bryan: "No!" saying this only gets a "but, but…" out of Justin. "sorry Justin. But I have morals…"
Justin: "awe nuts!" Justin stomps his foot and snaps his fingers.

The next day at the Plaza:
Goblin: "welcome one and all to the extravagant, once in a lifetime, tournament of all ages! I know some of you may be wondering what will happen if your life points reach zero in this tournament, and let me assure you. We do not want anyone hurt in this tournament. And as such we have edited the lifepoint counters so that everyone's life points will start at 4001 life points. And no one's can reach zero! The way you lose in this tournament is as follows. Anyone to get the opponents life points to one, will win the duel. Registration will be at the… (the team of four starts chattering amongst themselves. Talking about the life point indicators.)… and the time to register is at… (Justin spills his drink which causes a lady behind him to slip and fall into the group.)… I hope that everyone invited will participate!"
Andrew: "oh nice Justin! Now we don't know how to register! What do you have to say for yourself?!?" saying this only gets a 'whoops' from Justin.
Craig: "don't you whoops us! I'll whoop you!" Justin races off back in the direction of the hotel, Andrew, Craig, and Bryan hot on his trial.
Bryan gets stopped along the way by a hooded figure… "you can register at the beginners area at 1:00Pm tomorrow. Sorry I overheard your friends bickering…" this gets a quick thanks and a 'no problem their loud enough' as Bryan races off to catch up with the others.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
When the others got back they had noticed that Riken had rolled over in his sleep. An indicator that he was getting better. The four of them decide to retire for the day as the wait for tomorrow to come. Andrew sets his d.s alarm clock in anticipation. Bryan was the first to register, telling the lady in Wight at the counter the information that was needed. Her bony fingers typing it into the dusty keyboard.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
After the team of four registered at the counter there was an announcement that rang across the monitors of the televisions that lay a few 20 meters above the ground. These televisions where smaller than the ones that the orcs where carrying.
Goblin: "special announcement! The first rounds of the tournament are in! and a special split second decision! The first round will be today. Right now at the coliseum!" as the monitor changed to a bracket style view, Bryans face was seen across from a hooded person.
Craig: "whoa! didn't expect one of us to be going so soon! Man that little Green guy isn't messing around!"
_____________________________________________________________________________________
As Bryan entered through the grand steel doors of the coliseum, the crowd around him grew to an earsplitting roar! In this noise, snorting and grumbling was a common sound.
Justin: "I hope he gets through this one. That mystery guy is kinda suspicious."
Hooded figure: "I shall go first. That is fine with you isn't it?" he gets a nod from Bryan as he Draws his cards. "I activate the spell card cold wave!" a chilling wind is blown across the field, which makes the people in the stands shake, as if to get warm. "with that me nor you can activate spell or traps, or set them until my next turn. I set one monster face down and end my turn."
Bryan: "fine I don't need spell, or traps to kill you! I summon newdoria in attack mode(4/1200atk/800def'dark). Newdoria attack" his shock sphere flips up ryko, Lightsworn hunter and destroys it, but in return newdoria is destroyed and sent to the grave. "the effect?" gets a nod.
Hooded figure: "and I send the top three cards from my deck to the grave." sends wulf, Lightsworn beast to the grave as well as charge of the light brigade and shield warrior. "now my wulf returns to the field (4/2100atk/300def/light)" the silver and gold armored beast warrior appears on the field in a column of light, which seems to get half of the crowd to cower in fear. "well? Anything else?
Bryan: "I special summon cyber dragon from my hand!(5/2100atk/1600def/light)" the mechanical eel-like dragon busts from the ground with help from a strike of lightning. "turn end…"
Hooded figure: "Draw! Now wulf attack cyber dragon!" in the stands Craig brings up the point 'but that will be even up and both destroyed right?' his attention turning back towards the cloaked figure. "and at the damage calculation I remove shield warrior from the grave to negate wulf's destruction" the golden laced wolf slices through the beam of light shot out from Cyber dragon's mouth. "main phase two, I activate solar recharge. I discard another Ryko to draw two cards, then discard two." the two cards are flipped up to show Bryan. "what do you know another wulf and a Necro Gardna. I end turn."
Up in the stands:
Grumbles are heard coming from Justin's lips.
Craig: "what's wrong with him?"
Andrew: "he hates meta… with a passion."
Craig: "what's that?
Justin: "its any type of deck style that everyone uses because it's the best at the time."
Andrew: "and now Bryan will have to withstand this power… hope he can do it…"
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Will Bryan defeat this mysterious character? Will Justin ever get over meta? And what is up with Bryan's new deck? All these questions to be answered next time… on Yugioh: delve to the shadows the tournament begins.
