Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: Signer's Calling

Chapter 8: Daedalus Showdown

Both Xile and Yusei began to draw their cards and their speed counters are at 0.

"My move, Xile!" said Yusei as he drew his card. Yusei had a smile on his face afterwards, "From my hand, I summon Junk Synchron in attack mode and end my turn." yelled Yusei. At that moment a small ball of light entered the field and Junk Synchron emerged.

(LV: 3 ATK: 1300 DEF: 800)

"Is that the best you can do Yusei?" said Xile, sounding rather disappointed as he drew is card and both Xile and Yusei's speed counters went up to 1.

"I expected more from you, Yusei." Xile looked at his card and a grin came to his face. " Now I'll summon Chaos Fiend in attack mode." said Xile. A dark demon appeared to the field in the form of a skeleton creature.

(LV: 4 ATK: 1400 DEF: 1300)

"A stronger monster?" thought Yusei. "This is not good."

"Now Chaos Fiend, attack with Devil Slash." commanded Xile. The Chaos Fiend charged at Junk Synchron with his claws, causing Junk Synchron to be destroyed.

(Yusei: 4000 → 3900)

Yusei suddenly felt pain in his chest, which made him lose control of his Duel Runner for a moment. Eventually, Yusei regained control, but still had pain. " I felt the pain." Yusei screamed, " What's going on here."

All Xile could do right now was laugh in amusement. "Did I forget to mention..." said Xile as he sped up to reach Yusei "..Whenever you will take damage, your heart will suffer pain. If you lose the duel, which you will, your heart will stop, allowing me to successfully take your Signer mark."

Yusei was in complete shock at that point. His Duel was not only a chance of revenge, but now a risk of his life as well.

"Oh and did I forget to mention my Chaos Fiend's special ability?" asked Xile with a smirk on his face. "Whenever my Chaos Fiend Destroys a monster in battle, you take damage equal to the destroyed monster's attack points.".

Yusei was now in disbelief as Chaos Fiend jumped in the air with it's claws and slashed through him. The pain was too much for Yusei's heart to bear.

(Yusei: 3900 → 2600)

"Yusei's in a tight spot right now." said Crow, "There's no way he can lose that much life points in one turn."

Akiza was suddenly worried, "I can feel Yusei's pain." She thought to herself.

Back on Daedalus Bridge, Yusei was in extreme pain as well as having difficulty breathing, "I gotta find a way around this." he thought.

"Unfortunately, I have to discard one card from my hand in order to keep my monster on the field." continued Xile as he send one card to the graveyard and picks up two more cards from his hand. "I set two cards facedown and end my turn."

"His monsters are too strong." thought Yusei as he prepared himself to draw a card. "I gotta find a way to destroy it." Yusei immediately draws his card. Both Xile and Yusei's speed counters went up to 2.

"I summon Max Warrior in attack mode." yelled Yusei. A giant beam was instantly shot from the card and Max Warrior entered the battle field.

(LV: 4 ATK: 1800 DEF: 800)

"Now my Max Warrior will attack your Chaos Fiend. Thanks to his special ability, he gains 400 attack points when he's about to attack." said Yusei as Max Warrior charged for an attack.

(ATK: 1800 → 2200)

Max Warrior attacked the fiend with his staff. The demon let out a cry before it shattered into dust and was destroyed.

(Xile: 4000 → 3200)

"Alright!" yelled Crow. "Now Yusei's gonna turn the duel around."

"Don't be so sure." said Jack, sounding rather neutral.

"Why should I"

"Watch and you'll find out."

As they looked, Yusei had a disappointed look on his face. "Unfortunately after he attacks, my monster's original attack points are halved." said Yusei as Max Warrior returned to his field and shrunk in size.

(ATK: 1800 → 900)

"He didn't activate his facedown cards so I don't think they're much of a threat." thought Yusei. "I set one card facedown and end my turn."

"FOOL!" yelled Xile as he drew his card. "Summoning monsters will only delay your defeat.". Both Xile and Yusei's speed counters went up to 3. Xile looked at his card and his rage became a smile. "Allow me to show you what I mean. I summon the All-Powerful Chaos Masked Forger in attack mode.". Instantly a dark vortex appeared out of nowhere and a masked demon appeared on the field, it's body was a spirit.

(LV: 6 ATK: 0 DEF: 0)

"How could you summon a level 6 monster without sacrificing?" asked Yusei, sounding rather confused.

Xile felt joy in summoning this creature, "It's quite simple really." said Xile, "When I have a monster in my graveyard whose level is equal to my monster, I can normal summon this summon immediately without any tribute.". Yusei was now in complete shock.

"There's more to my creature, Yusei." continued Xile. "My Forger takes the form of the monster that's in my graveyard, as well as it's attack points." Xiel took out the monster in his graveyard. The monster had 2300 attack points and was a card Yusei feared – Infernity Destroyer.

"No!" yelled Yusei, "You'll pay for that Xile!"

Xile didn't listen, instead, he watched as the monster took the form of Infernity Destroyer, Masked Forger was becoming stronger as it tranformed.

(ATK: 0 → 2300)

"Now Masked Forger, Attack with Hell Blaze!" Commanded Xile. The monster charged in great speed, on course to attack Max Warrior.

"I reveal my Scrap-Iron Scarecrow Trap Card." said Yusei. "Now your monster's attack is negated."

Xile was calm and simply raised and moved his hand to the direction of one of his facedown cards, "You've triggered my Trap Card, Curse of Hell. This card negates and destroys all trap cards u activated this turn.". Immediately Yusei's Scarecrow disappeared from the field and Masked Forger destroyed Max Warrior. Yusei Suddenly felt intense pain in his heart.

(Yusei: 2600 → 1200)

"Oh No! YUSEI!" yelled Akiza in fear. She felt the pain that Yusei just went through, slowly..she felt weak as well.

"Unfortunately my monster destroys itself as soon as he attacks." said Xile as his monster slowly disappeared from the field. "I end my turn."

Yusei was now in such intense pain that he can't even concentrate. "I've got to do something fast." thought Yusei, "If I don't...I'm done for."

Wow looks like Yusei;s in a tight spot right now. Chapter 9 coming soon

P.S: Chaos Fiend, Curse of Hell, and Chaos Masked Forger are all my original design. Do tell me what you think of them :)
