Now, where did we stop last time? Aha, the duel. Please enjoy reading! =)


Gabriel: 4000
Mai: 4000

"I activate The Seal of Orichalcos!" Gabriel exclaimed as a green circle surrounded her before it enlarged to the size of the room. "Now I activate the continuous spell Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen so I can special summon 1 Fairy-Type monster to my field, providing I control no monsters. I summon Splendid Venus (ATK: 2800/DEF: 2400) in attack mode."

A beam of bright light flashed and leaves in its place a beautiful lady wearing gold armor. The green circle appeared on Venus' forehead and her eyes had turned red.

Splendid Venus: 2800+500= 3300 ATK

"As long as The Seal of Orichalcos is on the field, all of my monsters gain 500 attack points. Plus every non Fairy-Type monster loses 500 attack and defense points. To end my turn, I'll place one card facedown, your move. Good luck, you'll need it," Gabriel sneered as a facedown card appeared on the field.

"I summon Cyber Harpie Lady (ATK: 1800/DEF: 1300) and I'll activate Elegant Egotist to summon the Harpie Lady Sisters (ATK: 1950/DEF: 2100) in attack mode. Now I equip them with Cyber Shield which increases their attack by 500," Mai smiled as the three Harpie Sisters appeared on the field in a flurry of feathers.

Harpie Lady Sisters: 1950 + 500 = 2450 ATK

"I set one card face-down to end my turn," Mai finished. "You're move hun!"

"I draw! I activate Pot of Greed to draw two cards. Now I activate Celestial Transformation, which lets me special summon one Fairy-Type monster from my hand, but the monsters attack is halved and it's destroyed during the end phase, but who cares. I choose Gellunduo (ATK: 1700/DEF: 0). Now I tribute it to summon Athena (ATK: 2600/DEF: 800) in attack mode," Gabriel stated as the female warrior descended from sky.

The green circle appeared on Athena's forehead and her eyes turned red.

Athena: 2600 + 500 = 3100

"Athena, destroy one of those pathetic Harpies!" Gabriel commanded as Athena raised her spear and points it at one of the Harpies.

"I don't think so! I activate the continuous trap, Mirror Wall. This negates your monsters attack and cuts it in half!" Mai yelled as a mirror wall appears in front of the Harpie Lady Sister's, which Athena hit.

Athena: 3100 / 2 = 1550

"I activate my face-down, Mystical Space Typhoon which destroys Mirror Wall so my attack still goes through." Gabriel smiled as a huge cyclone destroyed Mai's trap.

"Now where was I? Oh yes, Athena, attack!"

Harpie Lady Sisters: 2450 – 500 = 1950

Athena hits the orange haired Harpie. The harpie let out a shriek of terror as she disintegrated and was sent to the grave.

"Gah," Mai exclaimed as she took damage.

Gabriel: 4000
Mai: 2850

"Venus looks left out, so now its time for her to attack, Shining Beam!" She pointed at the blue haired Harpie, as Splendid Venus attacked her.

Gabriel: 4000
Mai: 1500

"Mai," The gang looks horrified.

"I'll be alright you guys, I've been in tougher situations," Mai stated as she turned around to reassure her friends.

"If you lose this duel, you also lose your soul. How's that for tough? I end my turn with one face-down," Gabriel chuckled.

"Wow! Gabriel has gotten stronger!" exclaimed Rex as he watched the duel behind the metal gates with Weevil.

"What's happening in there?" shouted Duke as he arrived at the scene.

"Long story!" Tea said, shouting back at Duke.

"And we're trapped in here!" added Tristan. Duke nodded before running to find a way to open the gates.

"Gabby's goin' ta kick yer bum!" yelled Valon from the upper level.

"What? I don't believe you hun, no card has the power to do that," Mai rolled her eyes.

"Don't be so sure. Make your move!" Gabriel stamped her right foot in impatience.

"I draw! I activate Grave Arm! This card allows me to destroy one monster on the field and it can't be special summoned from the graveyard. I choose your Splendid Venus," Mai smiled as a grey monster hand emerges from the ground and pulls Venus back into the pit with it.

Great, because of Grave Arm's secondary effect, I can't use Athena's effect to bring Venus back, Gabriel thought.

"Now I activate Graceful Charity to draw three cards as long as I discard two. Now I activate Monster Reborn to summon my cute and cuddly, Harpie's Pet Dragon (ATK: 2000/DEF: 2500) in attack mode."

A colossal red and black dragon with a gold chain wrapped around its neck appeared on the field.

"When did Mai summon her dragon?" Joey looked confused.

"Mai probably discarded it when she activated Graceful Charity," Yugi clarified.

"Ohhhh," Joey said, "That's a smart move because she didn't have to tribute any monsters to summon it."

"Now I summon my second Cyber Harpie Lady (ATK: 1800/DEF: 1300) and now my dragon's effect activates. Since I control two Harpie Lady's and for every Harpie I control, my dragon gains 300 attack points. Since I have two, well I'm sure you can do the math," Mai smirked.

Harpie's Pet Dragon: 2000 + 600 = 2600

"That's still not enough to beat Athena!" Gabriel bragged.

"Not on its own anyway, did you know that my Harpie's always work best as a team? I activate United We Stand and equip it to my dragon, for every face-up monster I control, the equipped monster gains 800 for each one," Mai explained as her dragon's attack increased.

800 X 3 = 2400

Harpie's Pet Dragon: 2600 + 2400 = 5000

"Now my dragon, attack Athena!" Mai orders as her dragon spits a fire ball at Athena before it destroys her.

Gabriel: 2100
Mai: 1500

"Now, my Cyber Harpie Lady will attack! Go my Harpie, attack her directly!" Mai commanded, and her Harpie flew over to Gabriel before throwing sharp feathers at her.

Gabriel was thrown back due to the impact, and a cloud of dust appeared as she hit the ground. Gabriel coughed, her life points were at danger.

Gabriel: 300
Mai: 1500

Valon's eyes widened as he realized what was about to happen.

"Don't do it Valon. Don't be an idiot-"

"No! It won't 'appen!" Valon yelled suddenly to Raphael -who was a bit taken back by his outburst- and jumped off the upper level.

"Valon! What are you doing?" Raphael exclaimed.

"I won't lose 'er!" he exclaimed, looking at his ring. As the ring came in contact with the seal, a blinding light shone through the lobby, blinding everyone.

The seal broke, flinging everyone back. The whole area was covered by smoke.

"What the-"

The smoke cleared slowly and the spectators couldn't help but let out a gasp.

Valon was on his knees, holding Gabriel's limp body close. If one looked closely, they could see his body shaking.

On the other side of the field, you could see Joey running towards Mai, who was unconscious.

Raphael looked worried about Gabriel but he didn't say anything as Valon stood up carrying Gabriel's limp form in his arms. He glared at Joey, before gritting his teeth. "Later, Wheeler." he said before walking up to Raphael.

"I'll make up for it by taking the Pharaoh's soul," Raphael said, holding up his amulet and looking at the Pharaoh. "Its power puts the Puzzle to shame."

A blinding light emerged out of the amulet, making everyone shield his or her eyes.

After the light had disappeared, they gasped as they realized that the bikers are nowhere to be seen.

"Those bikers punks tricked Gabriel into using the seal," Joey said, turning his hands into fists, but also being careful not to hurt Mai. Téa seemed sad, along with Tristan.

Mai began moving in Joey's arms. She groaned, putting a hand on her forehead. "What happened?" she asked, her mind still trying to process what was around her.

"Long story," Joey said, carrying her. He walked towards the others.

They were standing in front of the entrance as the security gates began to rise. They all ran out of the building to see the Blue-Eyes White Dragon jet landing outside the building.

Joey was a bit upset that Gabriel had turned her back on them. "How could she?" he asked himself.

Mai, regaining her strength back, jumped from Joey's arms, and stood on the ground.

Kaiba and Mokuba chose that moment to get out of the jet. Kaiba seemed not too thrilled to see Yugi's gang there.

"What are you doing here?" Mokuba asked

They didn't reply as Duke ran towards them. "Whoa, it's a party!"

"It's a dweeb convention," Kaiba said sarcastically. Kaiba returned his attention to Yami. "Have you seen a sign of Pegasus?"

Yami shook his head, before looking at the ground. "We're too late."

Tristan growled quietly. "Gabriel took his soul away with that Orichalcos thing," Kaiba's eyebrow was raised as he heard that.

"The Seal of Orichalcos?"

Yami noticed, and asked, "Have you had any experience with The Seal of Orichalcos card?"

Before Kaiba had the chance to even reply, Mokuba jumped in. "My brother just wiped the floor with someone who played it! The duelist pretended to be Pegasus, and forced us to go to Duelist Kingdom to duel him."

"And then he ran away," Kaiba added. "So, we came here for answers. Whoever captured Pegasus is trying to take over Kaiba's company, and that's unacceptable."

Yami remembered the card Pegasus had given him and told him to guard it with his life.

"There's a door up there that didn't open!" Duke said as he saw the card Yami took out.

"Then what are we waiting for! Let's go!" Téa said, and they all nodded and ran inside the building.


Meanwhile:

Valon, Gabriel and Raphael were standing on top of a mesa. Gabriel was sitting on a rock, her head is covered by her hands, while Valon looked sadly at her.

"Eh, Gabby, ya mad at me or somethin'?" Valon asked, sitting down beside his sister.

She looked at him behind her arms before shaking her head. "No," she said simply. "I'm more of mad at myself."

Valon hugged her. "Why's 'at? Ya did what Dartz ordered. Capturin' Pegasus' soul," he said, before pulling away from the hug.

Gabriel nodded. "Yeah, but, I shouldn't have gotten that mad. I almost caused myself to lose my soul," she said, before covering her head with her arms again.

Raphael watched the two siblings with a small smile on his lips, before his face turned serious once again. "Let's go," he said, and went to his motorcycle.

Both Valon and Gabriel looked at Raphael before nodding. Mounting their bikes, the three of them rode down the mesa.


They arrived back to Dartz's headquarters and left their bikes in the garage. They walked into the conference hall and found Dartz standing there.

They bowed before standing straight. "I see that you've taken Pegasus' soul, Gabriel," he said with nod of his head.

"Yes I did, Master Dartz," she replied.

"Now, it's time to get Professor Hawkins. He knows too much about the Orichalcos. He even has a fragment of the stone." Dartz said, before standing up. "I'll send other people to fetch him, you three get some rest because we're about to get the Pharaoh's soul,"

Raphael nodded, and bowed before walking out of the room. Gabriel and Valon quickly followed behind him.

"Has anyone seen Alister?" Gabriel asked, realizing that Alister hadn't come back yet.

Valon shook his head, before smiling a reassuring smile. "Don' worry 'bout 'im. He can take care of 'imself," he said, before laughing at his statement.

Raphael nodded. "He's right," he said, stopping as they reached Valon's room.

Valon opened his door and entered, the other two followed. "So, how are we going to get the Pharaoh?" Gabriel asked, looking around the room. "We're not going to wing it again, are we?"

"Not to worry," Raphael started, "I already have a plan."

"Okay, I'm all ears," Gabriel said, pulling Valon by his clothes so he can hear Raphael's plan.

"We're sending you back," Raphael said, looking at Gabriel. Gabriel gasped.

"Wait. What?" she asked, disbelief in her voice.

"W'at ya mean, we're gonna send 'er back, Raph? I don't wanna loose 'er-"

"I meant what I said."

"Why me?" she said with a pout.

"Because, you were their friend," Raphael explained, "And you'll try to lead the Pharaoh to Death Valley so I can get his soul," he said, and Gabriel nodded.

"I guess it's better than nothing," she shrugged.

"And what about me?" Valon said, feeling left out.

Gabriel chuckled. "Just think of a way to get Joey's soul," she said, and Raphael nodded.

"Get going, Gabriel. The Pharaoh and his friends are on their way to see Professor Hawkins now," Raphael said, standing up and walking out of the room.

Gabriel opened her mouth to say something to Valon, but a man in black beat her as he entered the room.

"Dartz wants you to come with us," said the man, and Gabriel couldn't help but to let out a chuckle.

"Okay!" she said jumping of the bed. "This is the perfect opportunity!" she grinned and ran out of the room, not forgetting to say goodbye to Valon.

They boarded on a helicopter, and the helicopter flew towards Professor Hawkins' house. Gabriel explained the plan to the men, and they all nodded, understanding what they'll do. She noticed that her motorbike was also on the helicopter.

Once they reached the house, Gabriel rode on her motorcycle and jumped out of the helicopter; the men on her tail.

She began to ride around the house, and the men acted if they were chasing her, but in fact, they were putting bombs around the house.

Professor Hawkins was curious about the sounds around his house. He got out of his lab, and proceeded to walk out of his house.

Gabriel smirked as she noticed Professor Hawkins and jumped off her motorcycle, falling with a fake cry.

She hit the ground, and groaned as the pain was more intense than she thought.

Hawkins ran to her rescue. He carried her, before standing up. As soon as he stood, his house exploded. As a result of the explosions, Hawkins were sent back flying and hit the ground, Gabriel soon after.

I'm killing Raphael for suggesting that I go back, and kill myself for thinking about this stupid plan. She thought to herself as she hit the ground. She stood up weakly, and walked towards Hawkins to help him.

"Professor! Are you okay?" she managed to fake a cry, bending down to help him inside his motor-house.

As in cue, Yugi's gang arrived. They all were shocked to see Hawkins' house on fire, but were even shocked as they saw Gabriel helping the professor.

"Someone help me! The professor is damaged badly!" she shouted for help, and Yugi immediately jumped from Duke's truck and went to help Hawkins.

"What happened?" he demanded, looking angrily at Gabriel.

Gabriel looked at the ground. "I-I realized that sealing away peoples' souls aren't nice and tried to run away," she said, and hoped that Yugi would buy the lie.

"It's alright, Gabriel. We forgive you," said Tristan as he ran to help Yugi and Gabriel. Joey, Téa and Mai after him, while Duke went to park his car beside the motor-house. Weevil and Rex jumped from the truck towards the remainders of Hawkins' house.

Yugi's gang, and Gabriel entered the house, and laid Hawkins on a couch.

Téa went to make tea, along with Mai, while the others began questioning Gabriel.

"Why did you run away?" asked Joey suspiciously, while Tristan and Yugi nodded.

Gabriel looked at the ground. "They tricked me into sealing away peoples' souls. I realized it was wrong, so I ran away. They noticed and began chasing after me," she told them, and hid her head behind her hands. "I feel terrible."

Before Yugi can say anything, professor Hawkins gave Yugi a piece of the Orichalcos stone. "This is what they're looking after," he said, before coughing.

Gabriel's eyes widened, and she had to take off her bracelet as her stone began glowing.

Joey seemed to notice that, but he didn't ask anything. Mai and Téa returned into the room with a tray of glasses and a teapot.

Yami switched with Yugi, and looked curiously at Gabriel. "You were with them. Do you know where they're going next?" he asked her, and Gabriel nodded.

"They're going to Death Valley," she said, and mentally smirked when the Pharaoh nodded.

They drank the tea, and bid each other goodnight before falling asleep. At dawn, Yami got out of the motor-house, and Gabriel followed him silently.

She saw him mount Rebecca's horse before setting off towards Death Valley alone. She smirked and went to fetch her motorbike. Walking a few meters away from the house, she mounted her motorbike, and set of towards Death Valley in another way.

She took out her cell-phone and dialed Raphael. "Oh hello, Raph. The Pharaoh's on his way towards Death Valley," she said. After a few seconds of silence she nodded. "Okay," was all she said before hanging up.

"The Pharaoh took the bait, and now all I have to do is to lure Wheeler as well," she smirked.

Gabriel felt someone behind her; she turned her head around before stopping her motorbike as she saw some kids on a beat-up tandem bicycle.

She sighed and waited for them to get near her. "Who are you?" she asked, and they smirked before pumping their fists proudly in the air.

"I'm Rex," said the brunette.

"And I'm Weevil," said the blunette.

Gabriel shook her head. "What do you want?" she asked them, really irritated.

"We want to have the seal!" they said in unison. Gabriel cocked an eyebrow, before laughing.

"What's so funny?" demanded Rex, raising his fist up, as if ready to punch Gabriel.

"You...The Seal...It's just...ridiculous," she laughed some more, and that gained her a snort from Weevil.

"Well, we want to be powerful!" Weevil said, and that made Gabriel smirk.

"Powerful, eh?" she asked, and they nodded. Her smirk widened. "Okay then. Come on, ride on my motorcycle, we're going to see Yugi's duel," she said.

They nodded before jumping on the motorcycle; Rex behind her, and Weevil behind Rex.

"Not fair, you get to hold her," hissed Weevil in Rex's ear, and Gabriel heard.

"Oh, and one more thing. If you tried dong anything, I'll beat you up into a bloody pulp," that made them gulp before nodding.

"Alright then, let's go!" she cheered as she revved her bike, and set off so fast.


Gabriel, Rex and Weevil arrived as Raphael and the Pharaoh began their duel.

Raphael began his turn. "I activate Guardian Treasure. It allows me to draw two cards, and discard the five already in my hand, in addition to draw two more cards every turn," he said, sending five cards into the graveyard.

Gabriel knew that Raphael was searching for the seal. She watched with great interest as Raphael dueled.

"Then I set one card in defense, then set on card face-down and end my turn," Raphael said, pointing at Yami. "Your turn now, Pharaoh."

"I draw!" said Yami and looked at his drawn card. "I activate the spell card Polymerization to fuse Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts and Berfomet to form Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast (2100 ATK). Then, I attack! Chimera, attack his set monster!" Yami commanded, and Raphael's face down-card became face-up.

A huge blue demon grabbed one horn on each of Chimera's two heads, while Raphael was laughing.

"Raphael's Backup Gardna has 2200 DEF, more than enough to stop Chimera!" Gabriel said in amazement.

Raphael: 4000
Yami: 3900

Raphael drew two cards. "I activate the spell card, Gravity Axe, which allows me to summon Guardian Grarl (2500 ATK). Then I equip Gravity Axe to Grarl increasing its ATK by 500. So that means Guardian Grarl ATK is now 3000!"

Yami, Gabriel and the two boys gasped.

"Guardian Grarl, attack Chimera!" commanded Raphael, pointing at Chimera. Chimera was destroyed and turned into pixels.

Raphael: 4000
Yami: 3000

Gabriel looked between Yami and Raphael. "This duel is going to reveal so many things."


So yup, this is chapter 5!

R&R please! Constructive Criticism is appreciated, no flames!
