The following takes place during Obelisk the Tormentor.

We are now inside an abandoned place near the central square. There a rusted but functioning Duel Arena is placed. The two girls step on the platforms and place their Decks on the digital board, activating the machine.

LP Luna 2000

"Now we're ready to duel!"Luna says grinning "You may go first!"

Rebecca nods silently and draws her starting hand plus a sixth card. "I Summon Takriminos in Attack Mode!"

A green reptilian fish monster appears on the field (ATK: 1500).

"Wait a minute! That's Richie's card!" Luna protests "Why you're using it?"

"It just happened that I don't have my Deck with me right now, so I had to borrow Richard's for this duel, and I assure you that I will use it at its best to defeat you!" Rebecca explains "My turn's over!"

"Why you little…" Luna curses while drawing her card and selecting the third one from her left "I Summon Plague Wolf in Attack Mode!"

A black wolf with bones sticking out of its corroding skin and red eyes appears on the field making a distorted howl (ATK: 1000).

"Why placing a monster like that on the field?" Rebecca asks.

"My monster has a special ability" Luna explains without removing that smirk from her face "I can double its attack for the whole turn"

The wolf howls again and it starts to increase in size before becoming a giant bipedal monstrosity that resembles a zombie-like werewolf, its attack power becoming 2000.

"Plague Wolf, attack with Underworld Slash!"

The now giant wolf starts rushing pretty fast towards Takriminos and slashes it with its mighty claws.

"After I attack with this card, I have to destroy it!"

As Luna explains this, the giant wolf howls in pain and shatters, leaving nothing on the field.

"What's the matter?" Luna asks with a mocking tone "It's your turn!"

Rebecca simply places the drawn card in Defense Mode without talking.

"I Summon Wolf Axwielder in Attack Mode!" Luna declares drawing a card and placing it on the field.

A white bipedal wolf carrying a shield and a giant axe appears on the field (ATK: 1650).

"Attack her face-down monster with Axe Slash Attack!"

Her monster runs rapidly towards Rebecca's concealed monster and hits it with its axe, revealing it to be Lightning Conger (DEF: 750). Unfortunately, it doesn't stand a chance against Wolf Axwielder, so it's destroyed.

"I end my turn"

Rebecca grunts. "It's my turn!" she says drawing a card "I Summon a monster in Defense Mode!"

"The match is still at its first phases and it seems like you're already being overwhelmed by my wolves" Luna comments with a smirk while drawing a new card and placing it on the field "Then how about I play another one? Giga-Tech Wolf!"

A mechanical wolf with three tails and bat wings appears on the field besides Wolf Axewielder (ATK: 1200).

"Now Wolf Axwielder will attack!"

Once again Luna's monster attacks and Rebecca's face-down monster, Turtle Tiger, gets destroyed (DEF: 1500).

"I'm sorry I'm destroying your monsters, darling" Luna comments addressing at me "But don't worry: I'll win this duel as fast as possible in order to have you!"

I simply stare at her without changing my expression while Rebecca grunts in disgust. "I'm sorry, but you won't win!" she says drawing her card "I use Polymerization to fuse Bottom Dweller and Tongyo to Summon Deepsea Shark!"

The first two named monster appear on the field for a brief second before starting spinning and leaving in their place a purple shark with a red belly and a sapphire on its forehead (ATK: 1900).

"Its attack power is higher than Wolf Axwielder!" she states "Attack it now!"

The mighty shark rushes towards Luna's wolf and chomps it quickly, causing its destruction.

"It's my turn" Luna says drawing a card "First I'll change my Giga-Tech Wolf into Defense Mode"

The mechanical wolf produces a distorted sound that it seemed like a howl and kneels (DEF: 1400).

"Next I'll place Gene-Warped Warwolf to the field!" she continues Summoning the card drawn at the start of the turn.

A white werewolf-like creature with four arms and a long black and pink mane appears on the field (ATK: 2000).

"Oh no!" Rebecca cries "Now Deepsea Shark stands no chance!"

"That's right!" the other simply answers as her monster slams down Deepsea Shark, destroying it.

LP Luna 1750

Rebecca draws silently and stares at the card for a long time. Has she drawn something good?

"First I'll play Turtle Bird in Attack Mode!"

A pterodactyl-like monster with a turtle shell appears on the field (ATK: 1900).

"Then I'll combine it with Steel Shell, increasing its attack power by 400!"

The monster's shell becomes suddenly blue and its attack power rises to 2300.

"Winged Assault!"

Turtle Bird flies up and comes down after a few seconds, striking down Gene-Warped Warwolf.

"I did it!" Rebecca chirps "Now we're even!"

"Grrr… curse you!" Luna says angrily while drawing a new card "First I'll Summon Silver Fang in Defense Mode"

The beautiful white-furred wolf appears on the field howling (DEF: 800).

"Then I play the Ritual Magic Card Synthesis Spell!" Luna declares suddenly turning serious and showing us the card she drawn at the beginning of her turn.

All of a sudden a weird looking dome-shaped machine appears, a human figure visible inside.

"With that card you can sacrifice monsters whose total Level sum is 6 or more and transform the man inside that thing!" I exclaim.

"That's right!" Luna answers "This will form the strongest monster in my Deck! I Tribute Giga-Tech Wolf and Silver Fang!"

I simply watch as the soul of the two animals get inside the machine and sorround the body of the human inside it. In a matter of seconds, it starts to morph, its skin manifesting a blue fur and its head turning wolf-like. After a few seconds, the man is complitely transformed into a giant werewolf, which breaks the machine and jumps to the field with a howl (ATK: 2400).

"Meet my Lycanthrope!" Luna finally declares "A monster that is stronger than Turtle Bird! Shadow Slash!"

Lycanthrope runs towards Turtle Bird before slashing it with its claws.

"And there's more!" Luna adds "Since my Lycanthrope just dealt damage to you, you lose 200 Life Points for each Normal Monster in my Graveyard!"

"You have four Normal Monsters in your Graveyard!" Rebecca cries startled.

"So that's 800 points of damage" I state.

Lycanthrope howls agin and the souls of Wolf Axwielder, Giga-Tech Wolf, Gene-Warped Warwolf and Silver Fang appear for a brief second before sorrounding the beast's paw. The werewolf then rushes towards Rebecca and hits her with her new power.

"What's the matter? Where's that overconfidence you had before?" Luna asks before laughing hysterically.

"I hate to admit it, but Luna's strategy is perfect" I think "She slowly placed a few Normal Monsters in her Graveyard while using high attack power monsters before recurring to her ultimate weapon. How will Rebecca take down this beast?"

Altered cards:

Plague Wolf
Level 3
Beast-Type
DARK
ATK 1000
DEF 1000
Effect: Once per turn, you can double this card's ATK until the end of the turn. If this card battles, destroy it after the Damage Step.

And that last line is also the question I'm giving you 'cause I'm ending the chapter right now! Please don't hate me for this! Anyway, the altered cards are cards that exist in the OCG/TCG and I have altered something of it, for example here I altered Plague Wolf's Type (whose OCG/TCG one is Zombie) and its effect. Each altered cards I'll do will keep its altered stats for the whole series. If I can do it, I'll post the next chapter between Monday and Tuesday. Until then, hasta la vista!
