Drio has regained the upper hand, but how long will it last? Find out now! In case anyone is wondering, I call Senem in Demon form 'Senem' anyway just for convenience. All characters call him 'the demon'.

REVIEW!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Senem ran up to Giran. He was pissed after the way Giran had treated him earlier.

"What the hell? Why didn't you help me?"

"What reason would I have for helping a punk like you?"

"Simple: we're best friends!"

"Renin Kruar is my best friend. Maybe you have me confused."

"You bastard…"

"Do you wanna fight, punk?" Giran held up his fists, then about 5 seconds later, dropped them and walked away.

Maybe he still remembers me a bit. But I'm never talking to him again, thought Senem. He never did talk to Giran again.

Senem: 300

Drio: 2500

Senem was still smiling looking at the only card in his hand, which he just drew. Ciroh and Crowler knew what it was.

"It's gotta be Megarock Dragon, Professor."

"Definitely. How many rocks are in his grave?"

"Hmmm… Moai Interceptor Cannons, Criosphinx, Guardian Sphinx. Only 3, but he'll sac Exxod, making 4."

"That's still not enough to defeat Black Luster Soldier… wait! He also discarded Golem Sentry earlier, so that's 5, but luckily that is also not enough."

"Hey Drio, remember your decoy trick? I tried it in my own way. Scared you before, didn't I? I didn't really draw Megarock Dragon, don't worry. I'll just switch Exxod to defense mode and end." Senem was smiling at his own (what he thought was) ingenious move.

Ciroh's mouth dropped wide open. "So he didn't draw Megarock Dragon?"

Drio was unfazed. "Pretty stupid decoy, if you ask me. But anyway, I'll set a monster and end."

Senem was still amused with himself. "I draw! Now here comes the fun. I sacrifice Exxod and remove him, along with my other 4 rocks from play to summon Megarock Dragon! It has 3500 ATK and DEF, which wouldn't be enough except for my Axe of Despair, so now it has 4500 ATK! Attack his Black Luster Soldier!"

Drio was pushed slightly backwards by the impact and tried to block some of it with his Duel Disk. "Now that you've destroyed my Soldier, it is almost time for the full wrath of my deck to occur!"

Senem chuckled. "Yeah right. I bet that's your strongest monster. I'll end."

Senem: 300

Drio: 1800

Drio was seething with rage. "I draw! Now I'll set a monster and play this: my Full Armor spell card! At the cost of half of my LP, I can bring all remaining Equip Spells in my deck to my hand!"

Drio showed Senem Divine Sword - Phoenix Blade, Wicked Breaking Flamberge - Baou, and Fusion Sword Murasame Blade. "I'll end there."

Senem: 300

Drio: 900

Senem drew. "Oh no. I'm scared now, with those spells in your hand. Oh please. I attack your set monster on the left!"

"Activate Negate Attack! Now your turn is done. I draw! Excellent. I sacrifice my two cards to play my ultimate monster, Gilford the Legend! I can bring back my Lightning Blade from my grave and equip it to him, along with my other three equip cards!"

"That still won't defeat my Dragon."

"Really? Because I think that 2600 + 800 + 800 + 500 + 300 is…"

Ciroh yelled it out. "5000!"

"Exactly right, Ciroh. Attack his Dragon, Gilford!"

"No! I can't lose to you! I am the greatest duelist on earth!"

"I guess you aren't, Demon. Goodbye forever!"

Senem: 0

Drio: 900

Senem fell unconscious, and Drio, Ciroh, and Crowler ran over. Surynia and Ria also came back in.

"Did he win?" they asked in unison, eliciting a 'thumbs up' from Drio. The two clapped and ran over to hug him, but he ran away.

Meanwhile, Ciroh and Crowler carried Senem to the nurse's office, knowing that things were finally looking up.
