Kuriso- Sorry for the lateness. Now that school is out I can focus more on this. YAY. And my birthday is coming up (June 21st) Gonna be 21, and I think I am going to aim to have the next chapter done by then as a nice bday gift you all of you. Aww a few nice reviews…I assume. More reviews would be loved of course. I love hearing how I am doing. It is also good to know that people favorited or added this story to their watch list. YAY me. BTW, I am looking for OC and new deck ideas. So please feel more than free to contact me with ideas.
Oh one more thing, I am taking it out of first person. Thought I would like it better. Decided I don't. Will try third person with this one. Thoughts?
Once again I don't own Yugioh blah blah technical cover my ass legal things.
After dragging the still dizzy Gabriel out of the arena, Aaron walked off towards his awaiting friends.
"What was that you said about my Toons again?" questioned Aaron.
"Oh please you barely got through that one by the hair on your chiny chin chin. I call it luck," accused Brad.
"Well I call it skill. So skrew you! You are up next let's see how well you fare Mr. I Know Everything."
Aaron was right. Brad was next and he hadn't really given too much thought to what he was going to do. He didn't really change his deck too much for this duel. He figured it always worked well for him anyways. Why change a good thing. But still, what if his opponent ran a counter deck? Well what are the odds? As he was debating this, a light skinned girl walked up. She wore skin tight pants, with a black v-neck top and several necklaces. Her hair was colored black except for one part that was blue. From what you could see of her face that wasn't covered by hair she looked very pretty and had a black duel disk strapped to her arm. Brad could no longer concentrate on the problem of his deck and was far too focused on what he believed to be an angel before him.
"Yoooo Woooo! Brad, did you hear me?" Jason asked waving his hand in front of the glazed over eyes of Brad.
"Oh what? No, yes. I got it," he stuttered before walking off towards the mysterious girl.
"What the hell? I didn't even ask a question," complained Jason while rolling his eyes.
"Just let him be. It isn't often he gets to talk to a girl," noted David.
"Does this really count? She has no choice. I think she is his opponent," pointed out Aaron.
"Well this ought to be interesting," said Jason.
Brad walked over to the girl trying his hardest to act tough but it was just coming off as though he had a sort of mental disorder. She looked over at him and eyed him from top to bottom.
"You my next opponent?" she asked as she blew a bubble from her gum and popped it.
"I think so, but I don't know how I can bring myself to hurt something as beautiful as you," he said trying to be charming.
"Might want to get over that fast because I sure as hell don't have a problem hurting you. My name is Gina, and you better watch yourself." With that, she turned around and headed to her side of the arena leaving nothing but a vapor of perfume in front of Brad as a sort of reminder that he was so close to her. He let out a sigh and slumped to his side, activating his duel disk and looking across at the one eye that wasn't covered by hair. It is such a lovely eye, he thought.
"You going to keep gawking or are we going to get this thing started?" she shouted. He snapped out of his daze and looked at her more intently.
"Let's duel!"
Brad: 8000 Gina: 8000
"Lady's first," she said drawing a card. "I summon Malice Doll of Demise (1600/1700)." A demonic doll with a sinister grin appeared. In his hand he held a massive cleaver. Looking over at Brad, he turned his head to the side and began giggling. "But don't worry he wont be out too long. I set one card face down and activate Ectoplasmer!." A large machine that looked somewhat like a cannon appeared with its barrel pointed right at Brad.
"That can't be good," he said.
"Not for you. I end my turn, and during either players End Phases, so long as my Ectoplasmer is on the field any time, whoever's turn it is has to tribute a monster to this machine, taking its soul and turning it into a powerful beam that burns life points equal to half the tributed monsters attack. So good by Malice and you say goodbye to 800 life points. The doll collapse as the soul of it is transferred to the machine that powered up and fired a white beam directly at Brads chest knocking him back a few steps.
Brad: 7200 Gina: 8000
"Holy crap, it was her first turn and she's taken the lead. Brad hasn't even made a move yet and he's losing," exclaimed David.
"Yah but she left herself wide open for an attack. That face down card of her's must be something to protect her," said Jason.
"And don't forget, that Ectoplasmer works both ways. Next turn he has to tribute a monster too," added David.
"But by the looks of the grin on her face, that is exactly what she wants to happen," said Aaron.
"Fine then, my turn. I draw and summon Pyramid Turtle in attack mode (1200/1400)" A pile of sand appeared in front of Brad. The sand began to shift and change into the form of a large turtle. On the back of the turtle, rather than a shell was a pyramid. "Because of your own spell card you left yourself wide open to be attacked. Pyramid Turtle, attack with Ancient Sandstorm!" But before the zombified turtle could begin its attack a loud roar was heard causing the turtle to step back in fear. After the sand had settled, Brad looked across the field to see that she had played a trap.
"Seems like my Threatening Roar trap card has scared your turtle too much to attack," Gina laughed. "My trap forces you to skip your battle phase."
"Ok, I guess I walked into that one. I guess I have no choice but to end my turn. But looks like your own spell card is gonna work against you. I tribute my turtle to your Ectoplasmer!" The machine opened once more sucking out the soul of Pyramid Turtle who let out a small cry before his lifeless body hit the ground and turned back into sand. "Ready aim fire!" smirked Brad and the machine blasted a beam of light hitting Gina in the chest causing her to stumble back a bit.
"I've had worse," she said straightening herself up.
"I wonder how many times a girl has told Brad that…" remarked Aaron.
"Be nice…" grinned David.
Brian: 7200 Gina: 7400
"My turn. Draw!" Looking at the card she just drew she began laughing. "Well this is just getting too easy. First, lets welcome back my Malice Doll!" The broken pieces of the doll began to reassemble it. Picking up his ax, he looks over at Brad giving out a sinister cackle.
"Wait! Why does he get to come back?" questioned Brad
"Because of his special effect. If he is destroyed because of the effect of a continuous spell card, on my next standby phase he returns,"
"Sounds kind of situational to me,"
"Well obviously you can't seem to think outside the box, that's why I am in a better position than you. Let me show you what I mean. I summon Alice the Wandering Doll (800/1000)." In front of Gina came a small doll box shaped like a coffin. It opened revealing a china doll dressed in a pink dress and a bonnet. She smiled slightly turning her head staring deeply with her lifeless eyes.
"Eesh, that thing is just creepy," shuddered Aaron.
"Those are the kind of dolls that give you nightmares," remarked Jason.
"Now I will activated the field spell card Haunted Doll House!" Around them, the lights dimmed as a large child's dollhouse rose up behind Gina. Lightning struck behind in as bats circled the roof.
"I take that back. THAT, is what gives you nightmares," corrected Jason.
"I'll get to what my new toy does in a minute. First I am going to attack you with my Malice Doll. Slash that boy with your Heaver Cleaver!" The demented toy ran across the field jumping above Brad and slicing him down the middle causing him to cry out in pain.
"Guess these toys should have some warning labels huh?" Brad cringed as he stood back up.
"You don't know the half of it. Alice, attack him as well." The doll teetered over kicking him in the shin before returning to Gina's side. "I think I will set one more card and I think that is enough pain for this turn. Oh wait, no I lied. Ectoplasmer, take the soul of my Malice Doll. Ready, aim, fire!" Another beam blasted from the soul stealing machine hitting Brad in the chest knocking the wind out of him.
Trying to catch his breath, he gripped his chest in pain and tried to straighten himself out to draw his next card. 'I can't loose to things I used to rip the heads off of as a kid. This is just embarrassing,' he thought.
Brad: 4000 Gina: 7400
"Brad has already lost half his life points and she hasn't even broken a sweat," said David.
"Serves him right for underestimating a pretty face," snapped Aaron.
"Who's side are you on?" asked Jason.
"I'm on Brads, but if he's been making lame moves expecting her to do the same. She has been playing flawlessly so far and I know we haven't seen the key aspect of her deck yet."
"My move!" Brian cried. "I summon Goblin Zombie in attack mode naturally." Once more from the ground, another decomposed creature pulled itself out from its final resting place. Wielding a sword, this monster looked like a former Goblin if you reattached the skin to his face (1100/1050). "Goblin, attack Alice and send her back to Wonderland!" Charging at, the zombie lifted its sword to slash the doll but was stopped short when the doll caught the sword stopping the attack. "What!" Brad screamed.
"Oh did I forget to mention, my doll can't be destroyed in battle. Sure I still take the damage, but you take 500 direct damage as well." A dark aura glowed around Brad as his life points began dropping again. "And now my wandering doll will wander right on over to your side of the field." The doll waddled over to Brad's side then kneeled covering herself.
"Whatever, because my Zombie inflicted damage, you lose the top card of your deck." She flipped over the top card revealing what looked like a broken Barbie doll head before sliding in into her graveyard.
"What on Earth do you think that was?" David asked Aaron.
"Wow, I can honestly say that is one card I have never seen before."
"Thank you, that actually helped me. But I will explain why in a bit. First, my field card activates. Since my Alice wandered to your side, I am able to special summon a monster from my deck that has the word "Doll Part" in its name. So now I bring out Doll Part Blue in attack mode (0/0)." Another broken doll piece appeared, this time being the torso, looking disgusting and dirty.
"What? Your field lets you bring out normal monsters with no attack points? What are you planning?" questioned Brad.
"That's for me to know and you to eventually find out and fear. Are you finished yet?"
"No, I activate Mystical Space Typhoon! Get ride of that Ectoplasmer!" A large black typhoon began swirling around the machine causing it to fall apart and disincarnate. "I set one more card and call it a turn."
Brad: 3500 Gina: 7100
"About time. Draw!" Looking at her card, she giggled. "First lets welcome back Malice Doll (1600/1700). Next, my doll part will attack your Goblin. Go!"
"Wait, what? Attack?" The torso floated over to the goblin that easily slashed it in half.
Brad: 3500 Gina: 6000
"Why wouldn't you attack with Malice?" asked Brad.
"Because idiot, if I did, I couldn't do this. Activate my face down trap Necro Doll Meister! When a Doll Part monster is destroyed in battle, I can special summon 2 more Doll Part monsters. So welcome Doll Part Red and Doll Part Gold (0/0)."
"Oh instead of 1 normal monster with 0 attack, now you have 2…whatever will I do?" remarked Brad sarcastically.
"Mock while you can. Since your Goblin inflicted more damage I lose the top card again," she grinned. "Now Malice Doll, attack Alice the Wandering Doll so she may wander back over to me! Cleaver Heaver!" Once more the demonic doll lifted its axe swiping it at Alice who once more caught it, then staggered over to Gina's side. "And since Alice wandered again, I lose 500 life points, but it's a small price to pay to have her back and activate the Haunted Doll House once more! I special summon Doll Part Pink from my deck in attack mode (0/0)." The broken Barbie head that had been sent to the grave because of Goblin Zombie was now floating lifelessly on the field. "And I still haven't normal summoned," giggled Gina.
"Oh goody…" Brad huffed.
"I play Dark Factory of Mass Production. This nifty spell lets me add two normal monsters from my grave to my hand."
A spell card revealed in front of her showing a goblin in a factory putting the question marks on Mokey Mokey. Two more Doll Parts slipped out of Gina's graveyard and back into her hand.
"Now I summon Doll Part Blue once more to the field! And with that my set is complete."
"Wait, you did all that so you could some four useless monsters?"
"Think what you want, but wait till you see what happens when they combine!"
"Combine?"
"Yes! I play Burial of the Marionette. I can only activate it when Doll Part Blue, Gold, Pink and Red are all on the field. I tribute all four of them so that I may summon my ultimate beast. Arise Doll Chimera (0/0)." A coffin appeared opening to reveal a massive doll with pieces in the wrong places. It crawled out on all fours and tilted its head to the side.
"Oh seriously, more monsters with no attack points? What is the point?"
"My Doll Chimera only begins with 0 attack points. But he gains 400 attack points for every card in my graveyard with the word "Doll Part" (1600/0).
"All that work so she could get a monster with only 1600? There is obviously something she isn't saying about this monster," noted Aaron.
"Guess we are just going to have to see. Be careful Brad!" shouted David.
Brad: 3500 Gina: 5500
"My draw! And I summon Zombie Master (1800/0)" A skeletal zombie assembled itself in front of Brad as it adjusted its head. "And he has a kick ass ability. I can toss a card from my hard to special summon a level 4 or lower zombie in my grave. So I will toss my Plaguespreader Zombie to special summon him (400/200). Neat right?" A decomposed animal of some sort dragged itself to the field letting out a horrible cry of pain.
"I've seen better."
"Well have you seen this? Go Plaguespreader. Give Goblin Zombie a tuning wont you?" The two zombies began swirling and in their place was a decomposed version of the very famous Ha Des. "Meet Revived King Ha Des (2450/0)! Go Zombie Master, attack her Chimera with Underworld Lightning." The skeletal zombie raised his hands letting out a laugh as dark lightning bolts shot out at the Chimera who lets out a small cry before falling apart. "So much for all your work," Brad remarked.
"That's what you think. My Chimera has another ability. When he is destroyed, I can send 2 Doll part monsters from my deck to the grave to revive him, making him even stronger!"
"HAHAHA! I knew it would have some sort of effect, which is why I brought out my Revived King. Whenever a zombie monster destroyed a monster you control, its effects are negated!
"What!" he eyes widened in fear for the first time in the duel.
"Now Revived King, attack her Malice Doll! Stygian Blast!" The decomposed King of the Underworld shot out dark flames that swallowed Gina up making her shout in agony and fall to her knees. She struggled back to her feet glaring at Brad.
"Lucky shot," she barked drawing her next card.
Brad: 3500 Gina: 4550
"I play Graceful Charity. Don't need to explain how it works." She drew her three cards, discarded two and held up a new spell card. "Now Monster Reborn! Bring back my Chimera!" The doll pieces reassembled, uglier than before.
"Wait, I thought it could only be summoned with your spell," Brad pointed out.
"It needs Burial of the Marionette to be initially summoned. Then if it is, it can be revived from my graveyard! I know how my cards work. Next I play Doll Hammer! So I destroy a monster on my side of the field so that I can draw 2 cards. And I choose my Chimera." A ghostly figure of Malice Doll floated next to the Chimera, except he had a hammer rather than his usual axe. He raised the mallet slamming it into the Chimera causing it to shatter as Gina drew two more cards. "Now for the second part of Doll Hammer. I turn one of your monsters from attack mode, to defense." Ha Des kneed down covering his chest. "But don't forget, my Chimera comes back. I send 2 more Doll Parts and welcome him back!" Once more, the arms and legs connected wildly to 2 different torsos and now two heads (2400/0).
"Wow, he is just getting uglier and uglier," said Brad.
"And stronger! Attack his Zombie Master!" The skeleton glowed black before returning to dust. "And Alice, attack his Revived King." Waddling over to the massive king, she gave a small kick as he let out a groan and fell. "I set one card and send it to you."
"Wow, that made me a little sad inside," said Jason.
"Right? Its like rubbing salt on the wound. The mighty King of the Underworld fell to a kick to the shin," noted David.
Brad: 2900 Gina: 4550
"I am so over my army of the undead getting shown up by collectable items found of QVC. It is about time I turn this around. Draw!" Looking at his cards, he realized something. "Your doll only comes back if it is destroyed!"
"So? What's your point?"
"My point is, that's his weakness. I activate Mind Control!" Puppet strings came down wrapping up the doll and dragging it over to Brad's side. "This lets me steal your monster for a turn, so long as I don't tribute or attack with it. Sounds useless huh? Well not when I play my facedown trap card Call of the Haunted! Bring back my Plaguespreader Zombie."
"What are you planning? There is no level 7 zombie synchro, so my puppet is useless to you."
"That is where this spell card comes into play. Activate Star Blast! For the cost of 500 life points per star, I can lower the level of a monster on the field. So I give up 500 making your Chimera a level 4. Now synchro summon Doomkaiser Dragon (2400/1500). A massive decayed dragon rose out of the ground. It let out a loud roar causing dust and bugs to shoot out of its rotting mouth. "Next I play my spell card Smashing Ground. A fun card no deck should be without. So say bye bye to Alice." Alice let out a cry as a large rock fell, landing on her. Gina flinched as her doll shattered before her eyes.
"Now you have really done it. I play my face down trap A Cruse Unleashed! When my Alice is destroyed, this trap destroys every card on the field, and we each take damage equal to 300 times the number of cards we controlled." The ground split where Alice was, a spirit came out of the body of the doll spinning above the field swallowing every monster and card on the field. The doll house behind Gina fell apart and crumbled to the ground.
Brad: 2000 Gina: 4150
"I set one monster and end my turn," sighed Brad.
"You think the Chimera is the only monster in my deck that can attack. Watch this. I play Door to Mirrorland- Silver Arch!" A spell card with Alice the Wandering Doll falling though a mirror appeared. "Whenever Alice is in the grave I can play this spell card to special summon Dainty Bisque Doll from my deck (1000/0)." Another doll looking very similar to Alice only larger walked out of a large mirror and onto the field. "And for every complete set of doll parts in my grave, she gains 1000 attack points (2000/0). Attack his face down monster." A centaur like creature with a large axe was reveal. He let out a moan as the dark energy from the doll surrounded him and pulled him into the ground once more.
"Thank you for destroying my Mezuki. I'll be using him in just a bit. I'm guessing that ends your turn so I draw!"
Brad: 2000 Gina: 4150
"Talk about getting the card you need just at the right time. I play Card of Sanctity. So I remove all cards on my side of the field and in my hand from play…but as you can see I don't have any. Then I can draw two more cards." He drew his next two cards and looked them over.
"I am sorry my dear, but this is where it ends. First, I remove Mezuki in my graveyard from play so that I can use his special ability to bring back Revived King Ha Des. He has a bone to pick with your dolls." Once more the death king returns, leering deeply at the doll in front of him.
"Next I activate Book of Life. I am able to revive a zombie monster from my grave at the cost of removing a monster in your grave from play. Since you need complete sets of monsters to give your doll a boost, I remove a Doll Part Gold weakening your monster. (1000/0) And I am not done yet. Next, let's welcome back another Zombie Master!" With a bold of black lighting, a green book flashed in front of Revived King, who chanted the spell inside causing bones to reassemble the fallen Zombie Master. "And you remember his affect right? I discard the last card in my hand, to bring back Goblin Zombie (1100/1050). Revived King, get your revenge and destroy that doll. Stygian Blast!" The doll was swallowed and burned by the black flames, leaving Gina wide open.
"No! No, this can't be! I did everything perfectly!" She cried.
"Sorry to do this to someone as pretty as you, but Zombie Master, Goblin Zombie, finish this!" Both final monsters charged at Gina knocking her backwards as she hit the wall behind her collapsing to the floor.
Brad: 2000 Gina:0
Gina pulled herself up, brushing the dust and dirt that had gotten on her black clothes, before she deactivated her duel disk and turned to walk away.
"Hey wait!" shouted Brad running across the field.
"What do you want now? You already won."
"I just wanted to say you played an amazing game. You're deck is so awesome," Brad smiled hold out his hand to shake hers. Gina looked down at the gesture and gave a smile of gratitude. She extended her hand and shook his.
"Well next time, you won't be so lucky,"
"Hey, I was just wondering….maybe would you like to get some coffee sometime," Brad asked letting go of Gina's hand and suddenly noticing his feet have become very interesting as his gazed focused on them.
"We'll just have to see sport," she winked and headed out the side. Brad let out a deep sigh before suddenly being pulled out of his dream world by the three sets of hands that grabbed him.
"Now who just barely skidded by, Romeo?" mocked Aaron.
"Oh skrew you! I had way more life points than you did. And I am not in love! She just seemed nice and I wanted to hang out with her," Brad justified.
"Oh pleeeease. You wanted in her pants more than you wanted in this school!"
"Children, play nicely," mocked Jason.
YAY! Another chapter down. This story will get done. And next chapter, the villains of the story will begin to reveal themselves. Till then…
