A/N: Well I got one review for chapter four. I was hoping for more. Thanks Setoglomper. Well anyway, chapter five will begin shortly. Zane has been defeated. The final duels in the division begin soon. The winners advance to the world championships.
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! or Yu-Gi-Oh! GX. But I do own any characters that I may decide to add, as well as a few of the cards. Can you believe it? Only two more episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh! left. Sigh I spoiled the ending for myself but then again, I really didn't care.
"All right." the judge said. "Seto Kaiba and Alexis Rhodes begin the duel!"
"Heh heh heh." Kaiba said. "This shouldn't take long."
"Watch what you say." Alexis said. "You saw how I defeated Chazz Princeton."
"True." Kaiba said. "But you're still nowhere in my league. But I do see you as more than a push-over."
"A push-over!" Alexis exclaimed. "That is so mean! I'm the best girl at your Duel Academy and am now second best in the school since Zane left!"
"Yes." Kaiba acknowledged. "But I've been a world champion and am second best in the world. So I have a right to assume that you won't be much of a challenge."
"Look, let's just get on with this." Alexis said.
"Agreed." Kaiba said. "Let's duel!" Kaiba: 4000 / Alexis: 4000
IN THE "A" DIVISION AT THE EXACT SAME TIME
"Noah." Yugi said. "I'll make the first move."
"Bring it!" Noah said energetically.
"All right." Yugi said. "To begin, I'll place one card facedown, and then I shall summon Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts(1500/1200) in defense mode. That's all for now. Let's see what you got."
"With pleasure." Noah responded. "I'll summon Chiron the Mage(1800/1000) in attack mode. His special ability allows me to destroy one of your magic or trap cards on the field so your facedown card has to go."
"Nice move." Yugi said as his facedown card was destroyed and he deposited it into the graveyard.
"Now Chiron the Mage attack his Gazelle!" Noah ordered. "I'll end my turn."
"My move." Yugi said. "I summon Gamma the Magnet Warrior(1500/1800) in defense mode and then I shall end my turn."
"Yugi, all you've done this duel is play defense." Noah said.
"Noah, just worry about your own strategy." Yugi replied.
"Fine." Noah said. "My move. And now I'll summon Aries(1800/1200) in attack mode. I'll finish with one card facedown."
"It's my turn." Yugi said. "And I sacrifice Gamma the Magnet Warrior and now I summon Dark Magician Girl(2000/1700) in attack mode!"
"Not so fast!" Noah responded quickly. "By summoning your Dark Magician Girl you set off my trap card. Observe. My Torrential Tribute trap card."
"No!" Yugi said. "Not that!"
"Yes." Noah said. "Torrential Tribute can only be activated when a monster is summoned to the field. It then instantly destroys every single monster on the field."
"I guess I'll end my turn." Yugi said disdainfully.
"It's my move." Noah said. "I summon Giant Rex(2000/1200) in attack mode. Now Giant Rex attack him directly!" Giant Rex roared and charged and slammed into Yugi. Yugi was pushed backward by the force of the attack. Noah: 4000 / Yugi: 2000
"Well, you've lost half your life points." Noah said. "Is the best you can do? I've been training hard and I'm much stronger now then when I was the last time we faced each other."
"I can see that." Yugi said. "But it'll take more than that in order to defeat me. Remember I'm the King of Games and I'm not gonna lose."
"Well then make your move!" Noah smiled.
"Don't mind if I do!" Yugi exclaimed as he drew the next card from his deck.
IN THE "E" DIVISION AT THE EXACT SAME TIME
"Prepare to lose your soul." Bandit Keith snickered evily.
"It won't happen." Mai said firmly. "I'll defeat you and avenge Zane."
"Heh." Bandit Keith sneered. "You have no chance against me."
"Let the final duel of the "E" division begin!" the judge announced.
"If you'll excuse me. Ladies first." Mai said. "I'll start with Faith Bird(1500/1100) in attack mode. I'll end my turn with that. Your turn creep."
"Very well." Bandit Keith said. "I will start by summoning Ground Attacker Bugroth(1500/1000) in attack mode. I'll let you go from there."
"It's my turn." Mai said. "Look out. I summon Blue Winged Crown(1600/1200) in attack mode. Now Blue Winged Crown wipe out his Ground Attacker Bugroth!"
Mai: 4000 / Bandit Keith: 3900
"Not bad." Bandit Keith said.
"There's plenty more where that came from." Mai said. "Now Faith Bird attack him directly!" Mai: 4000 / Bandit Keith: 2400
"I'll end my turn by placing one card facedown." Mai said. "Let's see what you got."
"All right." Bandit Keith said. "No more games. It's my move. Excellent. I've just drawn the card to seal your fate."
"You can't mean..." Mai said trembling.
"I do." Bandit Keith twisted grin twisted even wider. "I activate the Seal of Orichalcos!"
"NO!" Mai cried out. The Seal of Orichalcos emerged from the sky and surrounded the playing field. Then the star symbol formed and the green light shined.
"Now we're both locked in here." Bandit Keith said. "And now I may have up to ten monsters on my side of the field and any monster I control gains 500 attack points. And whoever loses the duel loses their soul."
"I know how the card works!" Mai shouted angrily.
"Oh that's right." Bandit Keith said. "You had once been a member of Dartz's crew. And you used this card to trap Joseph Wheeler."
"Stop it!" Mai said.
"What's wrong?" Bandit Keith asked. "Is the memory getting to you. Well hold on, because it's about to get a hell lot worse!"
BACK AT THE "A" DIVISION AT THE EXACT SAME TIME
"Ladies first." Alexis said. "I'll start by summoning The Forgiving Maiden(850/2000) in defense mode. I'll end my turn with that."
"It's my move." Kaiba said. "I will now summon Blade Knight(1600/1000) in attack mode. Then I'll place two cards facedown and I will end my turn."
"My turn." Alexis said. "I activate the magic card Polymerization! This allows me to fuse Etoile Cyber and Blade Skater from my hand so I can summon Cyber Blader!(2100/1800). I will now attack your Blade Knight with Cyber Blader!"
"I don't think so!" Kaiba said. "Haha. Facedown cards go! First up is my Ring of Destruction trap card. This powerful trap has the power to destroy one monster on the field. Then we both take damage equal to the attack of the destroyed monster. I've decided to destroy your Cyber Blader. And also I reveal my magic card. Ring of Defense! This card will prevent me from losing any life points when your monster is destroyed. But you on the other hand, aren't quite so fortunate."
"Oh no!" Alexis cried.
"Say good-bye to your monster." Kaiba said. "And 2100 life points."
Kaiba: 4000 / Alexis: 1900
"I guess I'll end my turn." Alexis said.
"Now it's my turn, so stand back." Kaiba said. "I now discard my Thunder Dragon from my hand. This activates its special ability. Whenever I discard Thunder Dragon from my hand I am allowed to draw two more from my deck. Now I'll activate the magic card Polymerization! This allows me to fuse my two Thunder Dragon's together in order to from Twin Headed Thunder Dragon(2800/2200)!"
"What!" Alexis shouted in horror.
"Take this!" Kaiba said. "Twin Headed Thunder Dragon destroy her Forgiving Maiden! Now Blade Knight attack her directly!"
"Urk!" Alexis grunted as she was blasted with the attack." Kaiba: 4000 / Alexis: 300
"It's over!" Kaiba shouted triumphantly! "Hahahahahaha!"
"It's not over!" Alexis said. "I activate the spell card Pot of Greed! This allows me to draw two cards from my deck. Now I'll place one card facedown. And next I'll summon Cyber Tutu(1000/1000) in attack mode! And her special ability allows her to attack you directly as long as every monster on your side of the field has less attack points than her. Now Cyber Tutu! Attack him directly!" Kaiba: 3000 / Alexis: 300
"It makes no difference." Kaiba said. "It's my move. I summon Battle Ox(1700/1000) in attack mode. Now Battle Ox wipe out her Cyber Tutu and the rest of her life points!"
"Not so fast!" Alexis retorted. "I activate my facedown trap card. The trap card Wabaku! This card will instantly reduce all battle damage this turn to zero and that means you can't do anything else."
"Whatever." Kaiba said. "I'll end my turn."
"It's my move!" Alexis said. "I will now ativate Monster Reborn! This allows me to bring back one monster from the graveyard and I choose the Forgiving Maiden. Next I'll activate the field spell card Fusion Gate. This powerful spell allows us to make Fusions without a polymerization card. We just have to remove the monsters from play. Now I will fuse The Forgiving Maiden with Marie the Fallen One so I can summon St. Joan(2800/2000)! Now St. Joan attack his Blade Knight!"
"Agghhh!" Kaiba said angrily. Kaiba: 1800 / Alexis: 300
"I'm not done." Alexis said. "Now Cyber Tutu attack him directly!"
Kaiba: 800 / Alexis: 300
"You'll pay for that." Kaiba said angrily.
"I don't think so." Alexis said. "I'll finish by activating the magic card Block Attack! This switches one monster on the field in attack mode to defense mode and I choose to switch Cyber Tutu into defense mode. And then I'm gonna end my turn."
"It's my move!" Kaiba said. "And the duel is over!"
"No way!" Alexis snapped.
"Oh yes." Kaiba said. "First I'll sacrifice my Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon and my Battle Ox so I can summon my Blue Eyes White Dragon(3000/2500) in attack mode. Next I'll activate Megamorph! If my life points were lower this card would double a monster's attack points, but since my life points are higher, this card will halve the attack of the monster with it. So I will use this card on YOUR St. Joan!"
"No you can't!" Alexis cried.
"I just did!" Kaiba laughed. "Blue-Eyes White Dragon wipe out her St. Joan and the rest of her life points with White Lightning!" The blast destroyed St. Joan and knocked Alexis off her feet. Kaiba: 800 / Alexis: 0
"Game over." Kaiba said.
"No!" Alexis said. "I was so close."
"And the winner is Seto Kaiba!" the judge declared. "Who now advances to the World Championships. Well done!"
"Yugi!" Kaiba thought. "I will defeat you, and reclaim my number one dueling status! Just you wait!"
AT THE "A" DIVISION AT THE EXACT SAME TIME
"All right." Yugi said. "I summon Skilled Dark Magician(1900/1700) in attack mode! Then I'll place two cards facedown and I'll end my turn."
"It's my move." Noah said. "I activate the magic card Pot of Greed! This card allows me to draw two cards from my deck." As he did this, Noah noticed that one of the three dark orbs on Skilled Dark Magician lit up.
"Why did that orb light up?" Noah questioned.
"It's called a magic counter." Yugi explained. "Whenever, Skilled Dark Magician is on the field, whenever a magic card is activated. One of its orbs will light up. It can hold up to three magic counters. When it has three counters, its true power will be released."
"Fine." Noah said. "I activate the magic card Spring of Rebirth! This card grants me 500 life points whenever one of my monsters returns to my hand."
"Well you just placed a second magic counter on my Skilled Dark Magician." Yugi said.
"I know that." Noah replied. "But I'm not done. I will now summon Giant Soldier of Stone(1300/2000) in defense mode. Now Giant Rex destroy his Skilled Dark Magician!"
"Your attack has activated my trap!" Yugi said.
"Oh no!" Noah cried.
"Yes!" Yugi said proudly. "You triggered my Spell-Binding Circle trap card. This card instantly neutralizes your attack and prevents it from attacking or changing its battle position, and as an added bonus, it lowers your monster's attack points by 700!"
"Oh no!" Noah said. "But that leaves my Giant Rex with only 1300 attack points!"
"Exactly." Yugi said. "Now I activate the magic card Card Destruction! This forces both of us to discard every card in our hands. Then we re-draw the same number of cards from out decks equal to the number of cards that we discarded from our hands. And since I've drawn Watapon(200/300) using a magic card, I can automatically summon him to the field. Now I'll sacrifice Watapon, in order to summon my Beast of Gilfer(2200/2500)! But I'm not done. Since I activated a magic card, my Skilled Dark Magician gains one more magic counter. Giving him a grand total of three magic counters. Now to activate his special ability. By removing every magic counter from him and sacrificing him, I can summong my Dark Magician(2500/2100) from my hand, deck, or graveyard and he's coming from my deck this time!" The Dark Magician emerged from the card wielding a staff."
"Whoa!" Noah said.
"Now Beast of Gilfer, destroy his Giant Soldier of Stone with your flame attack!" Yugi commanded. "Now Dark Magician! Wipe out his Giant Rex with Dark Magic Attack!"
Noah: 2800 / Yugi: 2000
"Good move, Yugi." Noah commented.
"Thanks." Yugi replied.
"It's my move." Noah said. "I activate the magic card Shinato's Ark! By sending to my graveyard my Chiron the Mage and Aries I can summon Shinato King of A Higher Plane(3300/3000)!"
"That's Noah's most powerful monster." Yugi said.
"Now, it's time." Noah said. "Shinato! Destroy his Beast of Gilfer!"
Noah: 2800 / Yugi: 900
"Whenever Beast of Gilfer goes to the graveyard, its special ability activates." Yugi said. "It weakens any monster I choose by 500. And I choose Shinato King of a Higher Plane!"
"So what?" Noah asked. "My Shinato still has 2800 attack points, and your Dark Magician only has 2500."
"It's my turn!" Yugi said. "I activate polymerization! This allows me to fuse together Dark Magician and Buster Blader together to form Dark Paladin(2900/2400)!"
"No!" Noah cried. "It's even stronger than my Shinato!"
"Yes." Yugi said. "Now, go Dark Paladin! Destroy his Shinato!"
"NO!" Noah shouted as his best monster was destroyed. Noah: 2700 / Yugi: 2000
"This duel isn't over." Noah said. "And it's my move!"
IN THE "E" DIVISION AT THE EXACT SAME TIME
"Now, I shall activate the magic card Zera Ritual." Bandit Keith said. "I will discard Megasonic Eye and Patrol Robo from my hand so I can summon Zera the Mant(2800/2300)! And thanks to the Orichalcos he gains 500 more attack points."
"Go ahead and attack." Mai thought. "My facedown card will help me."
"I'm not about to fall for that." Bandit Keith said. "I now activate the magic card Heavy Storm! This blows every magic and trap card on the field and into the graveyard. Of course the Seal of Orichalcos will remain as it is far too powerful for it be destroyed, but I can't say the same for your facedown card!"
"No!" Mai yelled.
"Now Zera destroy her Faith Bird!" Bandit Keith ordered.
Bandit Keith: 2300 / Mai: 2200
"I'll place one card facedown and my turn is over." Bandit Keith said. "Make your final move!"
"It's far from over!" Mai shouted. "I summon Cyber Harpie(1800/1300) in attack mode! Next I'll activate the magic card Elegant Egotist! This turns one Cyber Harpie into three! Next I'll activate the magic card Harpie Lady Phoenix Formation! This destroys up to three monsters since I have three Harpies on the field. And when Zera's gone, you'll lose 3300 life points. Now finish him off!" The blast charged at Zera, and Bandit Keith began to smile.
"I activate my trap card!" Bandit Keith said. "It's called Protection of the Orichalcos! I must have the Seal of Orichalcos in play to activate it. Once it's activated I must give up 1000 life points. Then it instantly deactivates any card I choose and destroys every card except the Orichalcos. Then I can draw two cards from my deck."
"I'll end my turn with one facedown card." Mai said. Mai: 2200 / Bandit Keith: 1300
"It's over!" Bandit Keith laughed. "I activate Finding for Magical Stones! This magic card forces me to discard two cards from my hand. Then I can activate any magic card from my graveyard and I choose to activate my Heavy Storm destroying your facedown card!"
"Oh no!" Mai shouted.
"Yes." Bandit Keith said. "Now, I will activate my Card of Sanctity! This allows both of us to draw from our decks until we both hold six cards! Now I activate the ritual magic card Contract with the Dark Abyss. By discarding Machine King and Robotic Knight, I can summon Reshef the Dark Being(2500/1800)!"
"I remember that card!" Mai said. "You used it to defeat Zane!"
"Indeed." Bandit Keith said. "And I'll use it to defeat you, too! Reshef the Dark Being destroy the rest of her life points!"
"NO!" Mai cried. Bandit Keith: 1300 / Mai: 0
"Say goodbye to your soul!" Bandit Keith said.
"Damn you!" Mai shouted. "Help me Joey!" The Seal of Orichalcos shrunk around Mai and captured her soul.
"And the winner is... Keith." the Judge said dismally.
"Now, it won't be long before my plan is complete." Bandit Keith said. "Hahahahahaha!"
A/N: Well, that's chapter five. I would've ended it sooner but I was thinking that it was going to be a little long. I'm just kidding. My chapters are never long. Well now Mai is defeated. And Keith is off to the World Championships. Next Chapter will conclude the duel between Yugi and Noah, and then the next part of the story begins. PLEASE READ AND REVIEW! If nobody reviews, I think that nobody is reading. Setoglomper thank you so much.
