Bleh, I accident deleted all of the revisions just now, and the AN here. So no review replies this chapter ('cause none of them were important stuff)
Oh, except for just one: redgirl, chess isn't arkana.
So anyway, RER! This is a good chappie.
Chapter 32: Chaos Sorcerer
"All this trouble, and the holder of the Millennium Scales still hasn't revealed himself!" Bakura complained, sitting in Manukan's real dorm room. "I have four Millennium Items, and even having three was enough for Shadi to travel through time to confront me! Plus I have set up several Shadow Games where Yami and his friends have dueled… I thought those alone would have pulled any guardians out of hiding.
"Perhaps I should just forget about luring out the holder of the Millennium Scales, and focus on obtaining the Millennium Puzzle and Necklace," Bakura considered. "Although I was hoping to use the power from the Millennium Scales to make it easier…"
"Stop right there, tomb raider!" Bakura heard a voice say.
Bakura spun around. Bakura smirked when his Millennium Ring activated, pointing at the person standing in the room. "Speak of the devil. The holder of the Millennium Scales."
"Wow, evil and arrogant," The person remarked.
"What?" Bakura asked, not understanding his insult.
The person sighed, annoyed at having to explain his insult. "You said 'speak of the devil.' Since you're evil, you could be related to the devil. And since you're 'speaking of the devil', which can then be interpreted to be speaking of yourself, it's like you're arrogant."
"If you need to explain your insult, it is not good," Bakura stated. 'He knows I'm evil… Maybe I should prove him wrong.' "And what do you mean by me being evil?"
"You are Bakura, Zorc's avatar!" The person exclaimed. "You tried to bring back Zorc to destroy the world 5000 and 10000 years ago!"
"What?! Me?" Bakura asked with an incredulous face. "I am not that demon! Zorc's avatar is Yami, who lives in the Millennium Puzzle! I am the pharaoh who sealed away Zorc!"
"What? But the legend says that you are evil, and that Yami is good," The person said, confused as to who he should believe.
"Legends can get mixed up over 10000 years," Bakura simply replied. "I am trying to collect the Millennium Items, to prevent Yami from obtaining them and to then defeat Yami with their power."
"Yeah right, like I'd believe that," The person snorted.
"Why, if I'm evil, then why did Shadi give me his Millennium Key?" Bakura asked, taking out the mentioned Millennium Item.
He's got a point, The person thought. Shadi is very powerful. I doubt he'd be able to defeat Shadi in battle. "I guess you're right. So I need to defeat Yami. I will be going now."
"Wait, don't leave yet," Bakura commanded. "May I please see your Millennium Scales for a moment?"
'Wait, so since Bakura has the Millennium Key, that could mean he also has the Millennium Scales?' Chris asked Yami. They were in the foyer of Chris' dorm room.
'Yes, since if he took one, he probably took both,' Yami replied.
"Yami, I have come for you!" An intimidating voice declared.
'I didn't hear anyone come in,' Yami said as he took control of Chris' body and turned around to see who it was. "Who… are you?"
"I am the guardian of the Millennium Items, and keeper of the Millennium Scales," The person announced.
'He has the Millennium Scales?!' Chris exclaimed.
The keeper of the Millennium Scales was just a boy, no more than thirteen. His hair was almost perfectly half blonde and half black—Yami couldn't tell whether this hair was black with blonde highlights, or blonde with black highlights. He wore what looked a traditional Egyptian garb that was also yellow and black.
"My name is Heikou," The person continued.
"Why have you come for me?" Yami asked. "And I need your Millennium Scales."
"Why? So you can revive Zorc?!" Heikou demanded.
"Why would I do such a thing?" Yami asked.
"Because it's what you've always been trying to do! 5000 and 10000 years ago!" Heikou shouted. "Bakura explained that to me."
"Bakura is the one who tried to revive Zorc," Yami protested.
"No, Bakura proved that you were the evil person trying to do that," Heikou responded. "Shadi was one of the strongest guardians, but I guess even his memories have deteriorated over time."
"What? Why do you have Shadi's memories?" Yami asked.
"See? You can't be the ancient pharaoh, for he would have known about us!" Heikou shouted. "But if you must know, the spirit of the guardian of the Millennium Items is reincarnated every generation within our clan."
"So that means that even though you're young—"
"I have almost 10000 years of memories!" Heikou finished, laughing.
"Well, if you incorrectly think I'm evil, then I guess you want my Millennium Puzzle," Yami reasoned. "So now, let us begin our duel!" Yami shouted as his duel disk unfolded.
"Oh, I'm not an idiot. I know you're way too powerful for me to compete with you. That's why I'm challenging the holder of the Millennium Puzzle, not the spirit within!" Heikou took out the Millennium Scales, which glowed, bringing Chris in control.
'Yami, are you okay?' Chris asked.
'Yes, he's just weakening me so I can't take control of your body,' Yami said. 'I'll be okay, but you just need to win this duel! Still, be careful. He must be powerful if he can stop me from controlling you, even if he is young.'
"So, Chris, are you ready to lose your evil friend?" Heikou asked as his yellow and black duel disk unfolded.
"No, but I hope you're ready to lose your Millennium Scales!" Chris shouted.
"Let's duel!"
Chris: 4000; Heikou: 4000
"Of course, this will be a Shadow Game," Heikou said as the dark fog engulfed the two Millennium Item holders.
"Well, if you're going to start a Shadow Game, then I'm going to take the first turn!" Chris shouted, ripping a card off his deck (6). "Familiar Knight (5;1200/1400) in attack mode!" A man in steel armor with a red cape appeared. He drew his sword, and took a fighting stance. "I'll set this card (4), and end my turn," Chris played, a vertical card appearing behind Familiar Knight.
"Your little warriors can't stand up to me," Heikou smirked, drawing (6). "I start off with three spell cards (3): Chaos Balance, Chaos Summon, and Chaos Sacrifice!" Heikou placed Chaos Balance in his center slot, Chaos Summon on the leftmost slot, and Chaos Sacrifice in the rightmost slot.
Chaos Balance then took effect, transforming into a massive golden balance scale that was reminiscent of the Millennium Scales. Heikou stood in front of the base.
"What do your spell cards do?" Chris asked.
"Chaos Balance is a very unique card," Heikou began. "If I control a monster that is not light or dark, of if I control a different amount of dark and light monsters, the balance is tipped and all of my cards are destroyed. However, in exchange, for each pair of dark and light monsters I have, my monsters gain 500 attack and defense!"
"What about Chaos Summon and Chaos Sacrifice?"
"Oh, you'll find out when they come in," Heikou replied. "Now, to continue with my turn, I summon Chaos Gryphon (2;1500+500/1200+500)!"
"That was stupid!" Chris laughed as a black gryphon appeared on one side of the Chaos Balance. "Now all your cards will be destroyed!"
"Not exactly," Heikou responded. "You see, Chaos Summon now comes into play, so I can bring out another monster at the same time as Chaos Gryphon, so welcome Chaos Phoenix (1;1200+500/1500+500)!" A phoenix, whose flames were so hot they were white, appeared on the other side of Chaos Balance. Both of their power increased in the presence of Chaos Balance.
'It's his first turn, and he already has a monster with 2000 attack, and another with 1700!' Chris thought, impressed at Heikou's strategy.
"Chaos Gryphon, attack Familiar Knight with Chaos Wing!" Heikou commanded. Chaos Gryphon jumped off Chaos Balance, gliding down through Familiar Knight.
Chris: 3200; Heikou: 4000"When Familiar Knight is destroyed we can each summon a level four monster from our hand! I choose Rocket Knight (3;1000/500)!" Chris shouted as a blue version of Rocket Warrior appeared in Familiar Knight's place.
"I can't summon a monster, as the last card in my hand isn't a monster. To end my turn, I set that card (0)," Heikou said. "However, now I take some damage from Chaos Summon."
Chris: 3200; Heikou: 3500"Wait, you didn't attack with Chaos Phoenix?" Chris asked, a little confused.
"I couldn't," Heikou explained with a bored tone. "A monster brought out by Chaos Summon can't attack during the turn I summoned it. Now, are you going to make your move or what?"
"Oh, yes! Now, before I draw, I use the spell card Taking Advantage!" Chris shouted. "Since you don't have any cards in your hand, I can draw an extra two card this turn (6). Now then, first I summon Blindly Loyal Goblin (5;1800/1500)! You may have noticed that my Rocket Knight looks a lot like the monster Rocket Warrior (1500/1300). Now, Rocket Knight has the same effect as Rock Warrior, except he reduces your monster's attack by an extra 500! Rocket Knight, enter invincible mode, and weaken Chaos Gryphon!"
Rocket Knight folded up into a small blue rocket and launched itself at Chaos Gryphon. It struck the mythical creature, reducing its attack to 1000. "Now that your gryphon is weakened, I attack Chaos Gryphon with Blindly Loyal Goblin!"
"Not so fast!" Heikou shouted. "Since you decreased Chaos Gryphon's attack, I can use Card of Last Will! Now I can almost completely refill my hand (5)!" The goblin jumped on to the Chaos Balance and destroy Chaos Gryphon with a large axe.
Chris: 3200; Heikou: 2700"And now since you have one light monster but no dark monsters, all of your cards are destroyed!" Chris laughed.
"No, this is why I have Chaos Sacrifice," Heikou calmly responded. "By tributing Chaos Phoenix when Chaos Gryphon is destroyed, I can draw two cards (7)!"
'Wow, Chaos Balance, Summon, and Sacrifice make a really good combo!' Chris thought. 'It's going to be hard to beat it…'
'Don't worry, Chris. I'm sure you can beat him,' Yami said.
'Thanks,' Chris smiled, happy for the support.
"Now, do you end your turn?" Heikou obnoxiously asked.
"Yeah," Chris said, trying to think of a way to overcome Heikou's combination, "Once I set these two cards (3)."
"Then it's my draw (8)!" Heikou declared. "Hey, what do you know? At the start of your turn, I had no cards in my hand, and now I have more than twice as many cards as you! Time for some sweet revenge… I start by setting this card (7), and then summoning Chaos Leo Breaker (6;1700+500/1250+500), and then Chaos Wave Master (5;1200+500/1000+500)!"
A powerful white lion armored in a black version of Black Luster Soldier's armor appeared, roaring at Chris. On the other end of Chaos Balance, a pre-teen boy whose white hair was covered by a black mage's hat appeared. His baggy gray and white clothing covered his skinny body, and he had a staff that was much taller than him. However, then a muscular knight and an even more muscular man appeared. The knight had silver and black armor that was reminiscent of Chaos Emperor Dragon, and an impressive broad sword. The muscular man had a silver's fighter suit, and baggy black pants. In the presence of these new monsters, Chaos Leo Breaker's attack increased to 2700, and Chaos Wave Master's to 2200.
"As you can see, I used Double Summon (4) to summon Chaos Knight (3;1800+1000/1400+1000) and Chaos Brawler (2;2000+1000/1000+1000)," Heikou said, easily bringing out an army of powerful monsters. "You're just lucky that half of my monsters can't attack this turn. And speaking of attacking… Chaos Brawler and Chaos Leo Breaker, you know what to do!" The light and dark monster jumped forward, destroying both of Chris' monsters.
Chris: 300; Heikou: 2700"Not so fast!" Chris yelled. "I had a feeling you'd do something like that, so I use my two cards to heal me! First, Hyper Refresh, which will double my lifepoints! Then Parasitic Restoration, which will increase my lifepoints by your lifepoints, and then 100 for each of your cards!"
Chris: 4100; Heikou: 2700"It doesn't matter how many lifepoints you gain!" Heikou laughed. "You'll still lose! Now then, I activate Chaos Leo Breaker's effect. By simply paying 500 lifepoints and discarding Chaos Draw from my hand (1), Chaos Leo Breaker gains Chaos Draw's effect! Now I can draw four cards for free, refilling my hand (5)!"
Chris: 4100; Heikou: 2200"End turn, so now I lose more lifepoints from Chaos Summon."
Chris: 4100; Heikou: 1700'Wow, he is really powerful!' Chris thought as he drew (4). 'But then again, maybe not strong enough.' "I activate Lightning Vortex (3)! By discarding a card (2), all your monsters are destroyed! And you can't draw cards from Chaos Sacrifice, either." A giant bolt of lightning struck down from the depths of the Shadow Realm, obliterating Heikou's chaos creatures.
"Next I summon Blade Knight (1;1600+400/1000)!" Chris played as the knight in shining armor appeared. "Since I have only one card in my hand, his attack is increased, and also any flip effects you have are negated! Now, direct attack for the game!" The warrior dashed forward and swung his sword at the holder of the Millennium Scales, but he did barely any damage.
Chris: 4100; Heikou: 1500"Sorry, but I used Chaos Polarizer," Heikou countered. "So by sending three Chaos Gremlins (0/0) and three Chaos Pixies (0/0) from my deck to the graveyard, I reduced the damage by 1800. Oh, and since you destroyed Chaos Wave Master with Lightning Vortex, I can add any spell in my deck to my hand (6)."
"Then I set the last card in my hand (0) to end my turn," Chris played.
"I draw (7), and pay the maintenance cost for Chaos Polarizer," Heikou declared. "I then play Spell Stacking (6)," Heikou said, his field spell slot opening, "So my four spells and traps now take up none of my spell or trap zones!"
Chris: 4100; Heikou: 1000"The difference in our lifepoints keeps on growing larger and larger," Chris smirked. "It will be very easy to win when you only have a thousand lifepoints."
"Do you really think it'll be such an easy feat to beat me with these monsters?" Heikou asked with a cunning look on his face. "I remove Chaos Leo Breaker, Chaos Knight, and Chaos Wave Master from play to summon Chaos Warlock (5;1300/2700), Chaos Gryphon, Chaos Phoenix, and Chaos Brawler from play to summon Chaos Liberator (4;2500/1500), and all of my Chaos Gremlin and Chaos Pixies to summon Chaos Shadow Warrior (3;0/0)!"
Six orbs of light and six orbs of darkness came out of Heikou's graveyard. They all merged to form the three powerful chaos monsters. Chaos Warlock was an old man wearing a black and golden robe. He had a black staff with a golden glowing jewel on top. Chaos Liberator was a woman wearing golden armor with ornate black designs. Her sword blade was golden, while the hilt was black. Chaos Shadow Warrior was a man whose entire figure was covered by black shadows, except his glowing golden eyes.
"Wait, why aren't your monsters being destroyed from Chaos Balance?" Chris asked.
"These monsters don't count towards Chaos Balance," Heikou quickly explained. "Anyway, Chaos Shadow Warrior isn't destroyed as a result of battle, but you take any battle he suffers! So now, attack Blade Knight!" The black man drew a black sword and ran forward, but was stopped by an invisible barrier.
"Not so fast, I use Negate Attack!" Chris chained. "Your battle phase is immediately ended!"
"I'm fully aware of Negate Attack's effect," Heikou angrily said. "Anyway, I end my turn."
'How can I defeat all those monsters?' Chris wondered.
'Don't worry, Chris!' A voice sounded.
'Mystic Swordsman LV6?' Chris asked. He wondered whether or not he was actually hearing his duel spirit, since he hadn't drawn him yet.
'Yes, it's me!' Mystic Swordsman LV6 said. 'And I just want to tell you, don't worry! Me and all of your other cards, the ones whose spirits aren't prevalent enough for you to notice, are here for you!'
'Thanks,' Chris simply smiled. "Draw (1)! I use Pot of Greed (0), so I can dr—"
"I'm fully aware of Pot of Greed's effect, too," Heikou said through gritted teeth.
"Okay, okay," Chris said as he took off two cards from his deck (2). "Anyway, I activate Soul Exchange (1), so I can tribute Chaos Shadow Warrior to summon my Giant Sword Knight (0;2600/100)! You're lucky that I can't attack because of Soul Exchange, so I'll just end my turn." The shadows suddenly disappeared from Chaos Shadow Warrior, revealing a man with thin steel armor, but a large steel sword. He jumped over to Chris' field, and joined Blade Knight.
"I pass," Heikou sighed after he had drawn a card (4). "However, I don't pay for Chaos Polarizer's maintenance cost, so it is destroyed."
"That was quick," Chris remarked as he drew (1), fully confident his deck would give him a good card. "Anyway, I activate the spell I just drew, Mirror Spell (0)! Now I can return Pot of Greed to my hand (1), but I'll just use it two draw two more cards (2)! I use Book of Moon (1) and Nobleman of Crossout (0) to remove Chaos Warlock from play. Now that he's out of the picture, I attack Chaos Liberator with Giant Sword Knight!"
Chaos Warlock was destroyed by the blonde knight, while Chaos Liberator was easily cleaved in two by the giant sword.
Chris: 4100; Heikou: 900"Now, Blade Knight, let's try this again!" Chris shouted. "Attack Heikou directly for the game!"
"Again I have a way around it," Heikou responded as Blade Knight's attack was repelled by a black and yellow barrier. "By removing Chaos Shielder (0/1000) and Chaos Attacker (1000/0) in my hand from play (2) I can negate the damage."
"Then I end," Chris sighed.
Heikou drew a card (3), and slid it face-down into his disk. "I set this card (2), and end my turn."
"No monster?" Chris asked as he drew (1).
"No monster," Heikou responded.
"That's good, because now you have no defense!" Chris laughed. "I activate Heavy Storm (0), so now all of your spells and traps are blown away!"
"Then I chain Chaos Shield, my equivalent of your Waboku," Heikou calmly played as a giant gust of wind dismantled the Chaos Balance.
"Still, you don't have Chaos Balance any more!" Chris taunted.
"I don't need Chaos Balance any more," Heikou replied. I have enough monsters both in my graveyard and removed from play for any of my other monsters.
"Fine, then I end my turn."
"I bet you think this is a chaos deck," Heikou grinned as he drew a card (3).
"Well, yeah," Chris said. "All of your cards are chaos cards."
"Not all of my cards," Heikou smirked. "By returning all three Chaos Gremlin, all three Chaos Pixie, Chaos Leo Breaker, Chaos Knight, Chaos Wave Master, and Chaos Brawler to my graveyard, I can summon Ordo – Master of Balance (2;0/0)!" A giant fairy emerged on Heikou's field. He was made out of pure white light, and had eight giant white wings. He held a golden scale in his right hand, and a white feather in his left hand. "I'll set these last two cards (0) to end my turn."
'Ordo has a huge summoning cost, but zero attack and defense. He must have an extraordinary ability!' Chris reasoned as he drew (1). However, as soon as he placed the card in his hand, a dark light erupted from underneath his feet, damaging him, as a similar white light appeared beneath Heikou.
Chris: 2300; Heikou: 2700"That was the first of Ordo's special abilities," Heikou explained before Chris had a chance to ask. "You see, during each of your standby phases, you'll take 100 damage for each card in my graveyard. However, since he is the entity of balance, those lifepoints must go somewhere. Luckily, they go to me. Since I have 18 cards in my graveyard, that's 1800 points of damage each turn."
"But that also means that each time you play a card, the damage increases!" Chris yelled.
"No, it doesn't," Heikou responded. "Ordo removes any cards sent to our graveyard from play, keeping our graveyards in balance."
'I've got to find a way around that damaging effect!' Chris worriedly thought. 'Otherwise I'll lose the duel in two turns!' "I start by setting the card I have just drawn (0). Then Giant Sword Knight will attack Ordo!" The warrior rushed forward and swung his sword at the fairy, but Ordo blocked the large sword with the feather he was holding.
"Once per turn Ordo reduces the damage from one of your attacks to zero," Heikou explained.
"Then Blade Knight will attack Ordo!"
"I activate my two traps, Balance Shield and Grave Balance," Heikou played as Blade Knight attacked. However, Blade Knight's sword just went through Ordo, like Ordo was a ghost. "Balance Shield protects my lifepoints from battle involving Ordo, and Grave Balance prevents Ordo from going to the graveyard."
"I'll still find a way around your monster!" Chris vowed. "End turn."
"I'll just have to make your job harder then," Heikou replied as he drew a card (1). "Chaos Destruction (0) destroys Giant Sword Knight, and thanks to Ordo's effect, he is removed from play. End turn."
Chris drew (1), and Ordo's effect furthered damage him.
Chris: 500; Heikou: 4500"That… really hurt," Chris panted.
"Of course! This is a Shadow Game!" Heikou laughed. "Now, are you going to make your move or surrender?"
"I'll set this card (0)… and end," Chris said. 'I can catch my breath during Heikou's turn… and then when it comes back to me, my set card will save me!'
Heikou drew his card (1) and smirked. "I know you're going to lose, but I want to make it even more painful. I activate Counterbalance (0), which will return Chaos Gryphon and Chaos Phoenix to my graveyard, bringing the damage total up to 2000. End turn."
"I don't think so," Chris countered, drawing a card (1). The black light appeared again below Chris, but was absorbed by a yellowish barrier that appeared. A weak black light then continued past the barrier, slightly damaging Chris.
Chris: 300; Heikou: 4700"Reduction Barrier reduced the damage from 2000 to 200!" Chris explained. "So I'm in this duel for another turn. Once again, I'll set the card in my hand (0) and end."
"This is getting very annoying," Heikou growled as he drew (1). "I'll just pass, since I want to see you lose."
"Well, you'll just have to wait some more!" Chris replied. "During your end phase I'll activate Mirror Trap, setting Reduction Barrier back on my field. Then I draw (1), and use Reduction Barrier to reduce the damage to 200 again!"
Chris: 100; Heikou: 4900"That's your last turn of avoiding the damage!" Heikou shouted. "You only have 100 lifepoints left, so just about any amount of damage will cause you to lose!"
"Yeah, but I won't take that damage, because I'm destroying Ordo this turn!" Chris declared. "I start by playing Urn of Greed (0), removing Blindly Loyal Goblin, Giant Sword Knight, and Armored Knight (500/2000) from play to draw two cards (2)!"
"But Armored Knight was never in your graveyard!" Heikou protested.
"Actually, I discarded him for Lightning Vortex," Chris proudly explained. "And since I just drew two cards I'll activate my set Pot of Duplication to draw two more cards (4)!" Chris took a moment to look over his hand. "All right," He declared, "It's time to fight your order with my chaos! By removing Familiar Knight and Rocket Knight from play I can special summon Black Luster Soldier – Envoy of the Beginning (3;3000/2500)!"
"You… you have the first envoy?" Heikou murmured as Chris' monster appeared. He had ornate gold and black armor, with a gleaming blade. Long red hair flowed out from the back of his helmet.
"Seeing that you use a chaos deck, I'll assume you know what Black Luster Soldier can do, and won't bother explaining it to you. So now go and destroy Ordo – Master of Balance!" Chris commanded. Black Luster Soldier jumped forward and sliced Ordo in two with his sword, simultaneously opening up a portal to another dimension. The two halves of Ordo floated in the air for a moment, but were then sucked into the portal.
"You'll pay for that," Heikou growled. After all, Ordo was only my second most powerful creature.
"Yeah, we'll see," Chris responded. "Third time's the charm, so Blade Knight, attack!" With no face-downs Heikou stood in place and took the attack, which ripped some of his clothes.
Chris: 100; Heikou: 3300"I set this card (2) and end my turn," Chris played.
"Time to end this duel! Draw (2)!" Heikou screamed. He immediately slid his new card into his duel disk (1). "Treasure of Slashing Life let's me draw four cards (5)! This duel won't last long enough for the second effect to matter."
Heikou sifted through his new cards, one by one, and when he got to the last card he maliciously grinned. "I drew what I need! I remove Chaos Gryphon and Chaos Phoenix to summon the most powerful monsters in my deck: Chaos Emperor Dragon – Envoy of the End (4;3000/2500)!"
'Takashi used that card!' Chris remembered as the gold and black scaled dragon appeared. "Hey! That's a banned card!"
"This deck has been passed down through my clan for centuries," Heikou said. "We have always used this card when necessary, and nothing will stop us from protecting the Millennium Items."
'Chaos Emperor Dragon is an extremely powerful card. But if Yami could overcome it, I can too,' Chris thought, looking at his set card.
"Now it's a battle between the Envoy of the End, and then Envoy of the Beginning! However, I think it's obvious as to who will win. I pay 1000 lifepoints to activate Chaos Emperor Dragon's effect, Chaos Apocalypse!" Heikou yelled. Chaos Emperor Dragon roared and began to glow. The glow enveloped the entire field, and when it subsided both players' fields and hands were empty (0). "That was 3600 points of damage!" Heikou manically laughed. "There's no way you could have survive!"
"Guess again," Chris coughed through the smoke that the blast had caused.
Heikou stopped laughing for a moment to look at the score.
Chris: 100; Heikou: 2300"W-What? How did you survive?!" Heikou demanded.
"Simple," Chris smirked. "My set card was Mystik Wok. I tributed Black Luster Soldier for its effect, so I gained 3000 lifepoints. With two less cards on the field, Chaos Emperor Dragon only dealt me 3000 damage, leaving me back at 100 lifepoints."
"I don't care," Heikou snorted. "I have 2300 lifepoints, and you have 100 lifepoints. There's no way you can win."
"I can't lose," Chris responded. "The world is counting on me."
"The world isn't counting on you to destroy it."
"For the last time, Yami and I are not evil!" Chris shouted. "But anyway, on with my turn… I don't care if I'll only have one card, I won't lose. I trust my deck, and my deck trusts me, so defeat is impossible! Draw (1)!" Chris immediately activated his drawn card. "Graceful Charity lets me draw three cards (3), but I can only keep one."
Chris looked at his three cards for less than a second before sliding two into his graveyard (1). "I activate Level Modulator (0)! Do you know what Level Modulation does?" Heikou nodded. "Well, this has the same effect, except for two main differences. First off, you draw three cards instead of two."
"Thanks!" Heikou laughed as he picked up the cards (3). "You'll regret that! After all, your LV monster, which I'm assuming you just discarded for Graceful Charity, can't attack this turn!"
"Well, you're half-right," Chris replied. "First of all, the monster I'm bringing back, Mystic Swordsman LV6 (2300/1700), was discarded for Graceful Charity. However, I can attack with him this turn, since that's Level Modulator's second difference! This duel is over!" Chris announced as his signature swordsman appeared. "Mystic Sealing Slash!"
'Even if I couldn't get here earlier, I'm glad I could deal the finishing blow,' Mystic Swordsman LV6 said as he ran forward and attacking Heikou.
Chris: 100; Heikou: 0"I… lost," Heikou sighed as the Shadow Game faded.
"That's right," Yami announced, walking over to Heikou. He was able to regain control of Chris when Heikou was defeated. "Now give me your Millennium Scales."
"N-No!" Heikou shouted. "I will never give the Millennium Scales to the likes of you!"
"You do not deserve the Millennium Scales," Yami stated. "You were easily fooled by Bakura, and you were too blinded by hate to use the Millennium Scales' primary ability."
"Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me… but you'll regret it! This will put you in your place! Soul Judgment!" Heikou shouted, holding up the Millennium Scales, but nothing happened. Heikou froze for a moment, but then repeated, "Soul Judgment! Soul Judgment! Soul Judgment!
"Why… why won't it work?" Heikou murmured.
"Because you are not the true owner of the Millennium Scales any more," Yami answered. "So you cannot use its abilities."
"Fine, take it," Heikou spat, shoving the Millennium Scales into Yami's hands. I guess we'll have to use plan B.
As soon as Heikou let go of the Millennium Item, an electrical current ran out of the Millennium Scales into Yami. Although the electricity didn't fatally wound Yami, it was powerful enough to make him lose consciousness.
OMG, cliffie!! Hope you liked the duel XD It was fun, getting Chris to 100, and then a perfect 0 XD
RER!
Oh, and in case you don't look at the original card section, Vyser Dragoon made some of Heikou's chaos cards (thanks for letting me use them!) If you wanna know exactly which ones they were, just check the beginning of the OC section... it's right down there! whee!
