Note: Recap of last chapter: Sakura lost her soul against Ino in a duel, where Naruto took the damage for Sakuras attacks, After the match Ino escaped, Yugi told Tristan, Duke and Serenity to go after Naruto witch had ran after his blond friend, Mai and Tea decided to go on foot to look for Mokuba and Yugi, Joey, Kaiba, Rebecca and Professor Hopkins decided to go look for Mokuba in the Van, Master did give them a clue, lets see if they can solve it...
Near Tall Buildings...
"Where could he have gone?" Tristan asked stopping and looking around.
"I don't know man, but we have to find him quick, he isn't in the condition to go after that crazy girl" Duke said.
"Duke shes not crazy, that card of hers is controlling her, lets keep looking" Serenity replied and continued walking at a fast pace.
--------------------------------------
Inside Van....
"Kaiba, what is your plan?" Yugi asked.
"Didn't you hear him?" Kaiba asked referring to Master.
"Eh?" Yugi thought.
"Remember Yugi, he said to get to the "nearest point", meaning.." Rebecca was cut off.
"That we have to get to Domino Tower quick!" Kaiba shouted.
"Oh of course, the Domino Tower has a pointy top" Joey figured.
"Exactly"
"Roland, speed it up a notch" Kaiba ordered and Joey and Yugi were sent back to their seats.
-------------------------------
Master's Building...
"Yes?" Sasuke asked turning on a huge monitor.
"Sir, we found two girls, they appear to be Yugi's friend from what we saw" A bald man with a orange suit up to his ankles appeared on the screen and a symbol on his forehead, he appeared to be on a ladder escape.
"Well you and your brother know what to do right?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes, Sir" two men said in union, another man looking the same as the first one appeared next to the other bald man, but he had on a green suit on.
"Excellent, Mai, Tea, you two are my first targets.."
--------------------------------
Somewhere Between Two Buildings....
"So where exactly should we start?" Tea asked placing her hand over her face.
"Shh" Mai stopped, hearing a noise coming from above them.
Tea stopped and her body began to shiver.
"What did you.." Tea heard the noise as well.
"Up there!" Mai pointed, spotting the two bald men running down a wall.
"Look out Mai!" Tea yelled and pushed Mai from being squashed on by one of the guys foot that landed on the concrete floor and smashed it a bit, the other man jumped down next to him.
"Who the..who are they?" Mai asked getting of the floor, her eyes narrowed that her mini skirt had gotten a stain on it.
"I know who they are, there the Paradox Brothers, these evil idiots tried to beat Yugi and Joey in a duel back at Duelist Kingdom, they lost to them though, I wonder what they want?" Tea asked, noticing their Duel Disk on their arms weren't quite the same as hers and Mai's.
"I am Para" Para, the one with the green outfit said.
"And I am Dox" The other one wearing orange replied.
"And we are the Paradox Brothers!" Both yelled in union.
Tea got off the floor.
"What do you guys want?" Mai asked.
"What do we whant?" Dox asked.
"What we want is a duel" Para answered.
"Me or her?" Mai asked pointing to Tea.
"Both of you, this shall be a tag duel" Both men said in union.
"Tea, you said Yugi and Joey beat them right?" Mai's eyes went to Tea.
"Yea, but Mai look at their..." Tea was cut off.
"We accept!" Mai shouted and activated her Duel Disk.
"You fool!" Dox yelled, activating his Duel Disk, the slots slid out one by one, Para did the same and drew a card.
Para and Dox slid a card into their field slot...
"We activate the Seal of Orichalcos!"
A green light appeared in their Duel Disk and expanded from around both men to around Tea and Mai, the Seal formed symbols around it and lines inside of it, a second Seal surrounded the first one.
"Wha..what just happened?" Mai noticed the Seal around them and brought back horrible memories of her and the Seal.
Tea looked around, as if this wasn't really happening.
The green Seal symbol appeared on both their shiny foreheads.
"You two are working for Master?" Tea asked.
"Yes actually, we were asked if we wanted power and great dueling skills, so me and my brother had no choice to accept" Dox, with the higher voice said.
"Now you two will duel us both with not only your Locator Cards on the line but your souls aswell!" Para, with the deep voice replied.
"We have no choice" Tea activated her Duel Disk.
"Here's how its going to go, you go first, then me, then your blond friend, then my brother" Dox explained.
"You noitce how we acivated two Orichalcos cards? Well two souls will be lost in this duel, yours to be more exact" Para laughed.
"One last thing, we each share Life Points with our partners, so if one looses, both lose" Dox added.
"Whatever, you guys are going down, Tea go!" Mai ordered.
Mai & Tea: 8000 LP / Paradox Brothers: 8000 LP
Tea drew.
"I summon a monster face down and end my turn" Tea said and a face down card appeared in front of her.
Dox drew.
"I summon Kaiser Sea Horse (1700/1650-2700/1650) in attack mode, by the way, none of our monsters can attack until everyone has gone their first turn" Dox smiled, a serpent with legs appeared glowing blue while holding a sphere in one hand.
"Woah, how did your monster get so strong?" Tea asked.
"Remember our Orichalcos cards?" Dox reminded her.
"Oh, no"
Mai drew.
"I summon Cyber Harpie Lady (1800/1300) in attack mode and place a card face down" Mai smiled as a woman in long pink hair, huge claws with greens wings going down her arm and a medal body shield appeared and yelled at seeing the twin men.
Para drew.
"Brother" Para looked at his reflection in a different outfit.
"Yes?" he answered.
"Its time to summon him" Para said.
"Already?" Dox noded with a smile.
"We can tribute our Kaiser Sea Horse for two summonings if were using it to summon a Light monster, so come out Sanga of the Thunder (2600/2200-3600/2200)!" Para yelled and a bolt of lightning hit infront of him and a creature with claws and a symbol of its face appeared, lightning was running through its body, the Seal's symbol was on its face.
"I think you know whats about to come" Dox smiled at Tea and she embraced herself.
"I remember that, its one of their strongest monsters" Tea remembered.
"Don't be afraid of that thing Tea, we'll beat it" Mai hoped.
Tea drew.
"I discard a card from my hand (Monster) to special summon the Tricky (2000/1200) in attack mode" Tea slapped the card on her Disk and a man with a black and yellow suit appeared, (?) on its chest and face, and a long blue cape blowing behind him.
"I place a card face down and end my turn" Tea said and a vertical face down card appeared in front of her.
Dox drew.
Dox smiled, Sanga of the Thunder (3600/2200) attack her Tricky directly!"
The lightning monster raised its hand and a ball of lighting appeared, it fired at Tricky but..
"Activate face down!" Tea stuck out her arm.
The card lifted before her.
"I activate my Draining Shield, this card destroys your attacking monster so say goodbye to it" Tea smiled and the bolt of lightning was sent back and hit Sanga into pixels.
"NO!"
"Good move Tea!" Mai shouted.
"Eh, brother, I have no cards that I can use now" Dox whispered.
"Its OK, I have a plan" Para answered.
Mai drew.
"Well, well who to attack first?" Mai placed her fingers on her chin.
"Cyber Harpie Lady (1800/1300) attack Dox directly!" Mai ordered and the woman flew over to him and clawed him in the chest.
Mai & Tea: 8000 LP / Paradox Brothers: 6200 LP
Para drew.
"Ha! Brother I found a way to redeem ourselves, I play Monster Reborn to bring back our Sanga of the Thunder (3600/2200) in attack mode again" Para smiled at the card he summoned back.
"Now, you, for attacking my brother like that I sha'll attack your Harpie!" Para yelled in anger and the bolt of lightning was send tors Mai's Harpie
"Activate Mirror Force!" Mai yelled and a wall made of glass appeared in front of Harpie Lady and both monsters blew into pixels. (Para's monster attack was cut in half 3600-1800)
"Their go's your monster back to the graveyard" Mai smirked.
"I'll end my turn here, after I place a card face down" Para shook.
Tea drew.
"Tricky, attack Para directly!" Tea shouted.
"I activate Widespread Ruin, this card destroys any monster you control with the highest attack, so goodbye to your Tricky" Para smiled and Tricky was blown to pieces.
"Your move Dox" Tea said.
Dox drew.
"Well, I summon Jirai Gumo (2200/100-3200/100) but its only going to be here for a while..." Dox smiled at his brother.
"What is that suppose to mean?" Mai narrowed her eyes.
"This! I activate Tribute Doll, by sacrificing my Gumo, I can summon one level 7 monster from my hand, I summon Suijin (2500/2400-3500/2400) in attack mode!" Dox surprised them with a huge blue creature with a symbol on its face and the Seal on it as well.
"My monster cant attack this turn but be prepare when my brother goes" Dox warned.
Mai drew.
Mirror Wall smashed into pieces.
"I summon Amazoness Fighter (1500/1300) in attack mode" Mai said and a woman with muscles, and teared up skirt/bra appeared in a fighting stance.
"But thats not the only Amazon your going to see, I activate my spell card, Wrath of The Amazons!" Mai shouted and started searching her deck.
"This card lets me special summon two monsters with the word Amazon in its name, so come out, Amazoness Chain Master (1500/1300) and Amazoness Swords Woman (1500/1600) both in attack mode" Mai was satisfied with her two new woman on the field, one with a chain and the other with a sword.
"Your move" Mai smiled and looked at Tea.
"Do you know what your doing?" Tea asked.
"Trust me"
Para drew.
"My move, now Suijin (3500/2400), attack her Swords Woman now!" Para pointed and the monster opened its mouth and let out a large wave of water, blasting the Amazon to pixels.
"You fell into my trap, all the damage I'm suppose to take for my Amazon, you take instead of me" Mai explained.
Mai & Tea: 8000 LP / Paradox Brothers: 4200 LP
"NO! Para, watch what your doing!" Dox yelled.
"Shutup Dox!" Para panicked.
Tea drew.
"I'll flip my monster face up, come out Maha Vailo (1550/1400) in attack mode" Tea said and the card that was face down flipped up, a magician of some sorts appeared, focusing deep in his thoughts.
"I'll end my turn"
Dox drew.
"You two should prepare to lose your souls because I activate the spell card, Guardian Sacrifices, now you girls are in big trouble..this card lets me summon the monsters used to summon Gate Guardian, from my hand, deck or graveyard and since I have Suijin on the field already, come forth Sanga of the Thunder (3600/2200) and Kazejin (2400/2200-3400/2200)!" Dox yelled and a yellow and red monster appeared with a Chinese symbol on its face and the Seal's symbol above it, a green monster appeared as well with a different symbol and the Seal above it.
"Oh no.."
"You are lucky, this card stops all the Guardians sacrifices from attacking the first time there on the field togethter, so your move Mai"
Mai drew.
"I switch both my amazons to defense mode and end my turn" Mai had no useful card in her hands, she was a little worried.
Para drew.
"My, my, my, I see its time brother yet again" Para held a card out in between his fingers.
"Time to sacrifice all three of our monsters to summon Gate Guardian (3750/3400-4750/3400)!" Para yelled slaping the card down on his disk.
All three monsters formed, Sanga was on top, Kazejin was in the middle and Suijin was on the bottom, the monsters were larger then before.
"Now without interruptions, Gate Guardian, attack Tea's Maha Vailo (1550/1400)!" The Guardian opened its mouth's and blasted three different color beams at the spell caster, and it shattered to pixels.
Mai & Tea: 3200 LP / Paradox Brothers: 4200 LP
Tea fell to the floor from the beams power.
"Tea! You alright?" Mai asked, trying to clear the smoke.
"I'm..fine" Tea slowly stood up.
"Your move little girl, you don't don't what your messing with" Para and Dox laughed.
Tea drew.
Tea started loosing energy, the duel she had with Vivian and Rebecca had flashed before her eyes when Rebecca fainted.
"I..play..a card..face..down.." Tea slid a card into her Disk and her body stayed motionless.
"Tea?" Mai looked over.
Tea's knees buckled and bended, forcing her body to the ground, she layed still.
"Tea!" Mai cried out.
No answer.
Para and Dox started laughing.
"I cant lose, I cant get prisoned in that Seal again!" Mai yelled in her head.
"Guess your one down" Para said.
"And one to go.." Dox ended.
"Tea come back!" Mai yelled and fell to her knees.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
"There he is!" Tristan yelled, spotting Naruto climbing a side ladder.
"Lets go after him!" Duke yelled and Tristan and Duke started climbing the ladder.
"Hey guys, you go on, I'll chase him on foot" Serenity said.
"But Seren-" Tristan was cut off.
"Just go! I'll be OK" Serenity ran forward leaving the guys behind.
"There go's one brave girl" Duke thought.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So do you for-fit?" Dox asked the blond on her knees.
Mai looked at him with angry eyes "Whats happening? I'm a strong duelist, I cant let this magic circle get to me"
Mai got off her knees and stood in place, looking at her opponents, then back at her used to be partner.
"I'll beat both of you by myself, with or without Tea!" Mai yelled.
"Suit yourself, I draw" Dox drew a card from his hand.
"Brother, what do you say? Give this foolish girl one last turn or finish her now?" Dox questioned.
Para gave him a evil look.
"I skip my turn" Dox closed his eyes.
Mai drew.
"Hope the card Tea left can help me, or else.."
"I sacrifice my two Amazons to summon Harpies Pet Dragon (2000/2500)!" Mai slapped the card to her disk and her two Amazons disappeared into smoke and a red dragon appeared with its mighty wings in the air and a golden chain wrapped around its neck.
"Pss, big deal, our Guuardian is way stronger then that puny dragon" Dox and Para both said in union.
"Not for long, I activate the card I just drew, Beauty of The Harpie, this card can only be activated when I have a Harpie's Pet Dragon on the field, my Dragon gains 500 attack points for every card with the name "Harpie" in my deck or graveyard, so I believe I have four, that's 2000 attack points!" Mai's dragon started glowing with the spirits of the Harpies around it.
Harpies Pet Dragon (2000/2500-4000/2500)
"I'm guessing she doesn't know how to add, its still weaker then our Guardian!" Dox yelled.
"I know, but remember that card" Mai pointed to the card Tea left.
"Theirs a 50% chance that will help" Para said.
"I'm taking my chances, I activate Tea's face down card!" Mai ordered and the card lifted reveling itself..
"NO, THIS CANT BE!" The brothers yelled.
"Thank you Tea"
"I activate Megamorph (Tea won in one of the previous chapters)"
"This card lets me double my monsters attack points as long as my Life Points are lower then yours" Mai's dragone enlarged.
Harpies Pet Dragon (4000/2500-8000/2500)
"Harpie's Pet Dragon (4000/2500-8000/2500), attack their Guardian directly!" The Dragon opened its mouth and fired a yellow beam at the three storage monster, it crumbled to pieces and the eruption of the monster made Para and Dox fall to the ground.
Mai & Tea: 3200 LP / Paradox Brothers: 950 LP
"Next turn your done" Mai warned.
"That's, if you even make it to your next turn, your Dragon's attack points go down, Megamorph only double's your monsters attack points if you have less Life Points then we do, but its the other way around" Para noticed.
Harpies Pet Dragon (8000/2500-4000/2500)
"I set one card face down, and end my turn" a card face down appeared in front of Mai.
Para drew.
"This duel is over, once I activate this card, it will seal your faith, I activate Graveyard Guardian!" Para yelled and Dox face was covered in his huge smile.
"Yes brother!"
"This card let's me bring back a Gate Guardian (4750/3400) from my graveyard for only one turn, and guess what? That's all I will need to beat you!" Para shouted more, and the three storage monster appeared before them again.
"Now, attack her Dragon directly!" Para ordered and three beams of light mixed and aimed for the Dragon.
"Activate, Self Damage!" Mai's card lifted last second.
Mai & Tea: 100 LP / Paradox Brothers: 950 LP
Harpies Pet Dragon (4000/2500-8000/2500)
"No! Call back the attack!" Dox yelled but it was to late, the Dragon opened its mouth and a beam of fire shot out, forcing the three mixtures of beams back at the Monster, sending it clashing down to pixels yet again.
The holograms disappeared.
Mai & Tea: 100 LP / ParaDox Brothers: 0 LP
"NO!!" The ParaDox Brothers yelled seeing the two circles set Tea and Mai free.
"You idiot, how could you!" Dox shouted.
"I didn't know! Someone-" Para was not able to let out his yell for help, the Seal circled around him, trapping his soul in it.
"Para no!" Dox shouted one last shout before sufering the same fate as his twin brother.
Everything went silence.
"Tea!" Mai shouted running over to her lifeless body.
"Wake up Tea, wake up" Mai shook her body.
"Eh..Mai?" Tea's eyes opened.
"Tea, your up, I won the duel, well with help from that card of yours, where you get it?" Mai asked with a smile on her face.
"I beat it off some woman called, Vivian Wong" Tea remembered.
"Impressive, I see I'm going to have to put you on my "To Duel" list" Mai joked and helped Tea up.
"Are you sure your OK?" Mai asked.
"I'm fine, that Guardian of theirs just knocked me over, speaking of which, look" Tea pointed to four Locator Cards on the ground.
"Here you go" Mai took hold of them and handed her two.
"I have eight Locator Cards, that's enough to get me to the finals" Mai smiled at her accomplishments.
"I need two more to enter, hopefully I'll get them before someone else gets my spot" Tea replied.
"We should keep searching for Mokuba" Mai remembered their goal.
"Yea lets go!" Tea yelled and both females ran forward.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Master's Building...
"Those twin bafoons failed me, dam, its hard to get good help these days, I see if you want something done, your going to have to do it yourself, but for now, these five will fill in my needs..." Master threw a glass cup across the room in anger at the Brothers loss.
"Sir" A man's deep voice was heard.
"Yes?" Master asked looking at the man on the screen.
"I'm going in..."
"Good, very good, make sure to not come out like the rest of these fools, you know the consequences..."
"Yes sir"
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Inside Van...
"Are we near?" Joey asked.
"No Joey, its a couple of minutes away" Yugi answered.
"Oh boy, I'm getting kinda hungry" Joey heard his stomach rumbling.
"Roland!" Kaiba yelled at the driver, that swerved the van in a circle and a guy on a motorcycle flew in the air and landed on the hard floor, while his bike swerved to the ground.
"Is everyone OK?" Yugi asked.
"Were fine" Professor Hawkins answered.
"Yea, I just hit my head against the glass window, I'm perfect" Joey said sarcastically, rubbing his head.
Yugi opened the door and the three came out, Hawkins stayed inside the van.
The guy that was on the motorcycle had on black jeans, goggles, gloves and padding on his shoulders and elbows, he also had on a biker helmet, covering his face and identity.
"Are you OK?" Yugi asked.
The guy put his hands on his helmet and slowly took it off, showing his tossed brown hair and blue eyes.
"Hey mates, nice to see y'all again"
