Street's of Domino 9:30 P.M..
"Tea, how those he know you?" Mai looked at Tea in confusion, Tea looked back at her with a different look, as if she knew who the person under the cape was.
"I know who that is Mai, he's-" Tea was cut off when the short man removed his hood and reveled a man with a black mustache, and hair up to his ears all cut in a cleaned way, he frowned at Tea and yelled.
"Adrian Randolph Crump III, former KaibaCorp accountant! " Crump yelled, making Tea's eyes bulge out her head in shock.
"Tea, who is he!" Mai yelled, hating how Tea wasn't answering her, Tea looked at the man and back at the blond.
"He and along with his other group member trapped me, Yugi and the others in some Virtual World on our way to the Battle City Finals last year, you weren't there because, well.." Tea's voice drifted away as she did not want to bring up the whole Shadow Realm to Mai once again.
"I get it Tea" Mai stopped her and looked at the short man, "Well, what are you here for, Crump, is it?".
"I'm here to duel!" Crump yelled and lifted his cloak from his arms to reveal a Dark Duel Disk on his left arm, he activated it, making the slots come out one by one until their was a pointed edge at the end of it.
"I beat you once Crump, I can do it again!" Tea activated her Disk.
"Na, ah, ah, who said I want to duel you again? I found some fresh meat and I choose to duel the blond!" Crump laughed.
Mai narrowed her eyes at him, "If you say so, but just beacuse you never dueled me, doestn mean you'll win easily!" Mai yelled and activated her Disk and drew five cards.
"I got this Tea" Mai smiled followed by a wink at Tea, she moved back and gave Crump a bad look, "And the names Mai Valentine, don't forget it"
Crump smiled and chuckled, "The Mai Valentine?".
Mai replied, "The one and only".
"Even better, Master mentioned her to me before, he'll be very pleased once I take her soul!", Crump drew a five cards, "I herd much about you beautiful".
"I bet you have, now make you move" Mai ordered, narrowing her eyes even more at the man.
"Your in a rush, for someone who's about to lose their Soul!" Crump yelled and busted out into evil laughter.
Master's Bulding 9:40..
Sasuke was staring into the large screen in front of him, angry at the outcome of Gansley, he looked back to find a the red head teen knelt down with his head down.
"Gaara, its you, you were very good in your duel against that old man," Sasuke complimented and waved him to stand up.
"Thank you sir" Gaara ansered with his head still down.
"Are the remaining God Card's, Obelisk and Ra secured in the Lock?" Sasuke asked, loosing a bit of grip on the Millennium Rod, he looked down at his shaky fist.
"Yes Master, what is wrong?" Gaara noticed Sasuke's wrist hand shaking.
"Oh, the Rod is weakening my energy, I never knew it took a lot out of you, please put the Rod in the Lock along with the God Cards, but be careful" Sasuke thought twice about letting the Rod go into Gaara's hands, he let him have it and Gaara shook a bit when he grasped the golden Rod.
"I'll go do it now" Gaara headed out the door.
"For now Gaara, your just another pond in my game, as I'll take more Souls, my energy will increase and I will have full control of the Rod, thus Gaara, vanishing your Soul as well"Sasuke thought and a evil smile creeped his face.
Gaara closed the door and walked out into the dark hallway, he walked to the far end of the hall to a elevator and pressed the up button, the doors opened and he walked in.
The doors closed and he observed the Rod carefully, he then felt weak, the Rod's eye symbol started glowing, he heard someone talking in his head, next to he knew it, he was passed out on the elevators floor.
Shore 9:47 P.M..
"Now what?" Rebecca asked, looking around to see if their was anyway of transportation around but their wasnt.
"Kaiba, they have my sis on that Van, call for help now!" Joey ordered in Kaiba's face.
"Look Wheeler, I'll call for help now but it'll take a while" Kaiba grabbed the small speaker from the collar of his shirt and spoke into it.
"Can anyone hear me? I need a KaibaCorp-" Kaiba stopped speaking when he saw a huge ship appear in the ocean, not moving with the Orichalcos symbol on it, their were no lights on it and the flags on many poles around the ships rooftop that were cut up.
"Whoa! Look at that!" Rebecca pointed at the huge pitch black ship.
The ship let out a huge ladder to the dock of the shore, and a door opened at the end of it, seeming as if it wanted them to get on.
"Should we go in?" Yugi asked Kaiba.
"Yug, I'm going to get Serenity and the others, you can go if you want to" Joey started running without looking back.
"Joey!" Yugi yelled after his blond friend, Kaiba began to walk tors the ship, not caring for what was happening.
"I'll go with him Mate, you hop on that ship" Valon ran forward, chasing the blond and yelling his name, Rebecca looked at Kaiba who was three feet away from the ship.
"You think this is safe Yugi?" Rebecca fixed her glasses, Yugi shrugged as both started walking, "We'll find some answers, I'm sure of it" Yugi replied.
Kaiba took hold of the ladder and started climbing up, Mokuba running trough his mind the most and finding out who was going to be on board the ship.
"Be careful Rebecca" Yugi pointed out and climbed behind Kaiba, hoping nothing bad would happen once ontop.
Street's of Domino 9:53 P.M..
"What do you mean lose my Soul?" Mai asked in a seductive voice, already the painful memories of her and the Orichalcos hitting her in her head.
"I activate the Seal of Orichalcos!" Crump placed the card in his field slot and a huge green circle appeared hovering over their heads.
"Oh no" Tea gasped as the Orichalcos came down and threw her back to a Restaurant's window, breaking it to pieces and knocking her unconscious.
"Tea!" Mai reached for her but it was to late, the Seal had trapped both duelist in its clutches and their was only way out.
Crump began to laugh as the Green circle appeared on his forehead, "Looks like she's out cold" He laughed at his remark.
"I cant take down the Seal, I remember the powers of it"Mai remembered and looked at her cards, was she really able to take down a duelist she knew nothing about controlling the Orichalos?
"I'll still take you on!" Mai yelled making Crump laugh even harder.
Crump replied, "Fine then, lets begin".
"Lets Duel!" Both yelled in union.
Mai: 8000LP / Crump: 8000LP
Crump drew his cards and observed them, "I'll summon Ice Wall (ATK:1000 DEF:2500-ATK:1500 DEF:2500) in defense mode" Crump snickered as a giant Ice sculpture appeared in front of him, it appeared with glowing blue eyes and he Orichalcos above it.
"Ice monsters eh?"Mai thought as she drew, "I summon Dunames Dark Witch (ATK:1800 DEF:1050) in attack and end my turn" Mai replied and a dark shadow appeared, forming to be a fairy with purple hair up to her neck, a steel armour around her shoulders and chest with a pair of white cyber wings on her back, from her ankles and down she had on a pair of white boots and on her elbow to her finger tips she had on white gloves.
Crump snickered again, "I summon Giant Red Seasnake (ATK:1800 DEF:800-ATK:2300 DEF:800) in attack mode" A huge red snake appeared with its mouth wide oped showing off its yellow sharp teeth and green eyes glowing at the Witch, the seal appeared on its forehead.
"And remember, my monsters gain a 500 attack point boost thanks to the Orichalcos" Crump chuckled, "Attack her Witch my Snake!" He ordered, the long red snake wrapped its body around the witch and crushed it to pixels.
Mai: 7500LP / Crump: 8000LP
Mai covered herself from the shattered pixels and drew a card, "I summon my Cyber Harpie Lady (ATK:1800 DEF:1300) in attack mode, next I activate Thorn Whip, it gives my Harpie a 500 attack point boost" Mai said and a woman with long pink hair, green wings at her side connected with her arms appeared, clawing at the snake, a Whip was in her left hand, the end of the whip was covered in Thorns.
Cyber Harpie Lady (ATK:1800 DEF:1300-ATK:2300 DEF:1300)
"I play one card face down and end my turn" Mai said confident as a face down card appeared in front of her.
Crump smiled at her little move she made, "You may have even out out monsters but I summon Penguin Torpedo (ATK:550 DEF:300-ATK:1050 DEF:300) in attack mode" A Torpedo in the shape of a Penguin appeared aiming tors Mai.
"Now my Torpedo, attack her directly!" Crump ordered and the Torpedo fired itself at Mai and hit her in the chest, causing a gray smoke to start.
Mai: 6450LP / Crump: 8000LP
Mai coughed out, holding her chest, "That's against the rules!" Mai yelled, "Not really, my Torpedo's effect allows it to attack you directly and after it those, its destroyed" Crump answered making Mai look around for the torpedo.
"C'mon Mai, if you lose, you'll lose your soul again" Mai thought back to when Rafael stole her Soul, then it brung back memories of her and Marik.
Flashback...
"Now my Winged Dragon of Ra, attack her directly!" Marik yelled as the giant Dragon blew a fireball tors Mai, Joey jumped in front of Mai as she was chained up to the Wall behind her.
"Joey, dont be a hero!" Mai yelled as Joey covered her from the blast of fire.
"That's enough!" Yugi yelled jumping on to the dueling platform and extending his arms out with his back against Marik, the ball of fire hit him as Joey stood there and covered Mai.
Flashback over...
"Your move sweetheart, soon your soul will be nothing but a Icicle!" Crump laughed.
Mai drew and hoped the card would help her, she smiled, "I activate the card Harpie's 1,2,3!" Mai activated the card in front and it lifted up, "This card allows me to summon Harpie Lady 1, 2, and 3 to the field in exchange for a monster I control" Mai searched her deck and found the three closest friends to her and watched as the Harpie in front of her disappeared.
"I summon Harpie Lady 1 (ATK:1300 DEF:1400) in attack mode!" Mai slapped the card on her Disk and a clone of the first Harpie she summoned appeared.
"Then I summon Harpie Lady 2 (ATK:1300 DEF:1400) in attack mode as well!" Mai slapped the card on her Disk again and a woman with the same body as Harpie Lady appeared but her hair was short and it was orange.
"Last I summon Harpie Lady 3 (ATK:1300 DEF:1400) in attack mode!" Mai yelled as her third Harpie with spiky blue hair appeard and reunited with her sisters.
"My Harpie Lady 1's effect gives all my Wind monsters a extra 300 attack power boost" Mai smiled as her Harpies gained points.
Harpie Lady 1 (ATK:1300 DEF:1400-ATK:1600 DEF:1400)
Harpie Lady 2 (ATK:1300 DEF:1400-ATK:1600 DEF:1400)
Harpie Lady 3 (ATK:1300 DEF:1400-ATK:1600 DEF:1400)
"Say hello to my threo of HarpiesCrump, you may have dueled Tea before but nothing compares to whats coming to you" Mai explained.
Crump chuckled once again, "You may have summoned your little three bird wings but their still weaker then my monsters attack-" Crump was interrupted by the blond.
"I'm not done, my last monster I'll summon will be Harpie's Pet Baby Dragon (ATK:1200 DEF:600) in attack mode!" Mai yelled as a mini red dragon appeared with a golden chain around its neck.
"My Dragon has three different effects depending how many Harpies I have in play, for having one on the field you cant attack any of my Harpie Lady's, for having two my Dragon's attack and defense double, and for having all three, well you'll see later" Mai explained seductively which made Crump's eyes bulge out.
Harpie's Pet Baby Dragon (ATK:1200 DEF:600-ATK:2400 DEF:1200)
"Now my Dragon, attack his Snake!" Mai ordered and the once small Dragon doubled its size and now was bigger then before, it opened its mouth and out came a bursting fire that blasted the Snake into pixels.
Mai: 6450LP / Crump: 7900LP
"Now I'll explain my Dragons third effect, it can destroy any card I choose that you control and I choose your Ice Wall!" Mai pointed at it and it began to melt to a puddle and the water appeared on Mai's side of the field.
"Now your wide open for a attack Crump, my Harpie's, attack him directly!" Mai shouted as the three females took turns clawing Crump in the chest.
Mai: 6450LP / Crump: 3100LP
"Seems like you lost a chunk of life points eh?" Mai joked and gave him a sinister smile.
Crump was recovering from the pain he had just been trough, "You may want to look at the field closer" Crump lowered his eyes to the water underneath Mai.
"What is this? Explain yourself Crump!" Mai shouted in fear as she tried moving her feet out the puddle but couldnt, she stayed in place.
"Like you said, you'll see later" Crump laughed as she was clueless to what was happening, "You may think were playing a normal game but the rules have changed now, I'mchanging them, now are you done?" Crump asked impatiently.
"What is that suppose to mean?Yea I'm done after I place a card face down" Mai wondered what he meant by he was changing the rules, hopefully it wouldn't work out as he wanted.
"But your Dragon just helped me activate this card, Revenge Sacrifice, since your Dragon destroyed my Wall, I can tribute it to summon a monster in my hand and I summon Ice Queen (ATK:2600 DEF:1550-ATK:3100 DEF:1550) in attack mode!" Crump busted out laughing as her Dragon was blown to pixels and a woman made of complete Ice appeared, she had a large Ice dress on with Ice slippers on her frozen foot, you could see right trough her body as well and the Orichalcos appeared above her eyes as her long hair of Ice stayed in place down her back.
Mai gasped, "Oh no, without my Dragon, he can attack my Harpies if he chooses next turn, but luckily I have my facedown if he tried it".
Crump drew, "Prepare to get turned into a human icicle? I summon Nightmare Penguin (ATK:900 DEF:1800-ATK:1400 DEF:1800) in attack mode, then I equip it wit Penguin Sword, it gives my Penguin a extra 800 attack points and in addition, my Penguins effect is it gives all my Water Monsters a extra 200 attack point!" Crum laughed loudly as a Penguin with a tuxedo shirt, a red bo tie, and a large hat appeared welding a large sword.
Nightmare Penguin (ATK:1400 DEF:1800-ATTK:2200 DEF:1800-ATK:2400 DEF:1800)
Ice Queen (ATK:3100 DEF:1550-ATK:3300 DEF:1550)
Mai gasped at the growing penguin,"He can wipe out two of my Harpie's!".
"Now I activate my Queen's effect, each turn I can special summon two Ice Tokens (ATK:500 DEF:500-ATK:1000 DEF:500 x2)" Crump replied as two cinder blocks made of Ice appeared with blue eyes appeared and they to felt the power of the Orichalcos.
"Now my Ice Tokens, I activate your special effect!" Crump yelled as the two cubes slid next to Mai, "Good, now wipe out 2000 of her Life Points!" Crump ordered and the Ice Cubes exploded into shards of Ice, making a huge white fog and a loud scream.
Mai: 4450LP / Crump: 3100LP
"Wha..what have you've done!" Mai yelled as her thighs and down up to her feet were frozen in ice, "Why am I frozen!" Mai demanded as Crump laughed his head off.
"I told you we were playing new rules, every time one of us looses Life Points, a portion of our body is frozen as well, now it seems like the numbers are dropping for you and soon you'll be nothing but a icicle!" Crump laughed.
"Your sick" Mai spat.
"I may be but your words wont effect the outcome of this duel, now my Ice Queen, attack her Harpie Lady 2 now!" Crump shouted as the Queen put her hands in the air and began to pray, a giant boulder made of ice appeared over her head and she sent it flying tors the orange top female, crushing her in seconds.
Mai: 2650LP / Crump: 3100LP
Mai yelled again as her chest and down were frozen into ice, "Oh no" She thought.
"Now my Nightmare Penguin (ATK:2400 DEF:1800), attack her Harpie Lady 3!" Crump ordered and the Penguin slashed the winged beast in half and broke her to pixels.
Mai: 1550LP / Crump: 3100LP
The blond duelist's arms were frozen in play, as part of her lower neck,"I mide as well give up now" Mai put her head down, "I'm not a good duelist, whatever happened to the old me?" Mai thought as tears began to form in her purple eyes.
"Give up!" Crump yelled and proceeded to laugh at her when Mai began to put her hand over her Duel Disk.
"Mai.." A voice spoke from behind Mai, she tried to look back but just heard the noise of moving glass, "Don't giv..give up Mai" Tea suddenly appeared holding on to the side of the building, she had cuts on her knuckles and looked weak.
"Tea!" Mai yelled as she recognized the voice, "I beat him before Mai, you could to" Tea continued.
"Ugh!" Crump was furious with the result, he was close to wining and she had to go and ruin it for her, he looked at his hand of two cards and looked for a answer.
"I have one card on the field that can help me, but I need the right card" Mai forced her arm to expand and draw the card.
Mai looked up at Crump with a sinister look on her face, "It's over Crump, I summon my Harpie Queen (ATK:1900 DEF:1200) out to the field!" Mai placed the card on her Disk slowly, making a huge storm a woman with long beautiful green hair was summoned wearing a blue and green outfit with her claws being attached to beautiful elegant white wings.
"Big thing, I have two monster with higher attack points then her, what can that do? Scratch me?" Crump laughed.
"Not for long, I activate this" the card lifted in front of her and a Purple Mirror appeared in the Harpie's claws, "I activate my Harpie's Mirror, by sending one monster to the graveyard" Mai's last Harpie was blowned to shards, "Next my Mirror's effect is, it gives my Harpie a extra 500 attack boost for every 'Harpie' card in my graveyard and I count five, that's 2500 attack points added to my Harpie Queen!" Crump's eyes bulged out his head when the spirits of Harpie Lady 1,2,3, Cyber Harpie and Harpies Pet Baby Dragon appeared behind the Queen.
Harpie Queen (ATK:1900 DEF:1200-ATK:4400 DEF:1200)
"It's time you feel the ice, now my Queen, attack his Nightmare Penguin!" Mai ordered and the Queen pointed the Mirror at the Penguin, a huge wind storm blew out the glass of the mirror and blew the Penguin away.
Mai: 1550LP / Crump: 1100LP
Crump's waist and down became frozen in ice, he yelled as the pain of cold ran trough his body, "No!" He yelleed out.
Mai looked satisfied at the action she had took, "I place one..card face down and end my turn" Mai slid the last card she had in her Disk.
Crump drew, "This is the end for you miss Valentine, my Ice Queen has more then one effect, for one turn and one turn only, I can summon five Ice Tokens and sacrifice them to give my Queen double its attack" Crump snickered as the five blocks of ice disappeared and the Queen began to grow larger.
Ice Queen: (ATK:3300 DEF:1550-ATK:6600 DEF:1550)
"It's over Mai!" Crump aimed his finger at her and Tea gasped at what was about to happen to her old time friend.
"Attack her Harpie my Ice Queen!" Crump shouted as the woman formed a boulder of Ice and threw it at the Harpie, just then..
"I activate my trap card, Mirror Wall! Cutting you Queens Life Points in half!" Mai said as a glass wall blocked the attack and broke the ice to pieces.
Ice Queen: (ATK:6600 DEF:1550-ATK:3300 DEF:1550)
The female flew over to the Ice woman and clawed her in the chest, making her fall to pieces and break into shards of ice.
Mai: 1550LP / Crump: 0LP
Mai's body was released from the ice and it disappeared, as for Crump's body was slowly being frozen as the Orichalcos circled around him, he yelled for mercy, "Help me!", Crump's head was frozen in a screaming expression and the Green circle took his soul, releasing Mai and taken Crump's body.
"I won" She said heating her body up with her breath, she looked back at Tea and ran tors her, "You OK?" She wrapped a arm around her neck and helped her up.
"I'll be fine" Tea replied, "You won" She smiled at the blond, Mai smiled back, "Yes Tea, I guess he didn't know who he was up against" Mai said confidentally as she helped Tea out the glass and onto the sidewalk.
"Now how are we going to get somewhere without my car?"
Sasuke's Building: 10:13 P.M...
Gaara stood in nothing but pitch black darkness when he heard a evil laugh echoing trough out the darkness.
"Where..where am I?" He wondered, still seeing nothing but darkness.
"Don't you know your own mind when you're in it?" The voice asked with a slight seductive tone.
"Who said that? Show yourself!" Gaara demanded as his patience was growing tin.
"As you wish…" The voice said and with it an image began to appear in front of him. The image was a male with large spiky white hair a black sleeveless shirt and a pair of grey pants with his long Purple cloak, as Gaara caught an image of the person's face she noticed it was all vain shot and had a symbol glowing on his forehead which matched the eye symbol on the Millennium Rod.
"Who are you?" Gaara asked backing away from the man.
"The name's Marik, the real Marik unlike the fool that betrayed me long ago" Marik spoke as he neared Gaara's face.
"What do you want!" Gaara stepped back just to see Marik walk two steps closer to his face.
"You'll soon little boy, as I take over your mind and body and take my revenge on the Pharaoh and his friends!" Marik yelled as his spirit slowly devoured Gaara in the darkness.
Marik stood lifeless in Gaara's body laying on the floor in the elevator with the doors wide open, he opened his eyes slowly to see the bright light flashing him in the face, he looked over to see the Millennium Rod also laying on the floor, a huge sinister smile crawled on to Gaara's face as he took hold of the Rod and the eye symbol appeared on his forehead.
Marik walked out the elevator and saw the many rooms near him, "What are these rooms here for?" Marik thought impatiently as he chose a room to his right and tried to open it, un satisfied he grabbed the Rod and pointed it at the door, smashing the door's handle to bits, he went in to find three card holders with three different cards in it. Marik walked over (Gaara's body) and put his hand on the glass that covered the cards from him.
The spiky headed man smashed the glass that triggered a alarm, making a huge noise echo from the hallways and floor to floor, Marik took hold of Obelisk and Ra and placed it in his back pocket, also noticing another glass case with the Millennium Necklace in it, Ishizu crossed his mind for a second but didn't think twice about smashing the glass and swiping the gold.
Marik stepped out the room to find two cloaked men in front of him, "Sorry boys, but no time for play, enjoy a one way trip to the Shadow Realm!" Marik lifted his Rod and a dark energy appeared around the cloaked figures who disappeared right before him, Marik spotted a door with the word 'EXIT' on top of it and opened it, leading to a staircase, he ran down the steps, knowing, soon when he and the Pharaoh face off again, their would be Hell to pay.
