"But first I'll use Recycling Rewards to draw a card (1)," Pan said. He immediately activated his new card (0). "I use Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy the face-down on… the right."
Chris growled as the small gust of wind appeared, blowing away his set Mirror Force.
"Looks like I picked the right one!" Pan laughed. "Gladial-Beast – Geordias, attack Toy Warrior! End this duel!" Geordias' axe was so long that Geordias didn't need to move to destroy Toy Warrior.
Chris: 2600; Pan: 2200"I haven't lost yet!" Chris shouted.
"Actually, you have," Pan confidently declared. "Geordias has another effect: whenever he destroys a monster in battle, you lose points equal to his defense! That's 2600 points of damage, the exact number of points you have!"
Geordias suddenly appeared in front of Chris. He attacked Chris with his large staff, which sent Chris flying backwards, but didn't cut him.
"CHRIS!" Sarah screamed as Chris was flung backwards into one of the wall of the Colosseum. He limply fell to the ground as a small cloud of dust covered him.
Chris: 0; Pan: 2200
I don't get you guys. When I just have a normal 2-part duel, I get a good 7 reviews. When the main character loses a duel that will cost him his soul and give Bakura the Millennium Puzzle, the last one he needs... I get 4 reviews. I just don't get it!
Pumpkid: Of course there are heroes :P And it was fun using the GBs. I was able to use every GB card, so it was fun :-D except one of those counter traps, but what ever.
Die Hard Kaizer: shriek (dot) twoday (dot) net is a good OCG site. And 'cause chris lost, bakura won! I thought it was obvious enough that people would be a little more concerned about what happens... whatever, lol xD
Kuinra Shisa: Yay! Shisa-kun! (hugs) It was fun making Chris lose xD And i know you have awesome editing skills... but then I wonder why you forgot the second parentheses xD
redgirl90: But cliffies are fun! And that's why I do them xD
Anyway, I hope you all like this chappie and review! Even if it is kinda short...
RER!
Chapter 43: HERO Flash!!
"Chris lost…" Kengake said numbly.
"That means that we have to give the Millennium Puzzle to Bakura," Sam continued.
"And Bakura will have all the Millennium Items," Sarah concluded.
"It seems my Gladial-Beasts were too strong for Chris!" Pan laughed, admiring his Gladial-Beast – Geordias, which had 3700 attack points. It was so strong because of his field spell, Dungeon of the Gladial-Beast – Colosseum, which had 11 counters on it.
"No… I have not lost! I will not let Bakura win!" They suddenly heard Chris shout. The dust cloud blew away to reveal Chris confidently standing, wearing Mystic Swordsman LV6's armor.
"What is this?!" Pan demanded.
"It's my trap, Soul Relay," Chris explained. "This let me summon Mystic Swordsman LV6 (2300/1700) from my graveyard, and as long as I have Mystic Swordsman LV6 I can't lose the duel!"
'Now we are one,' Chris and Mystic Swordsman LV6 thought. 'Now we cannot lose!'
"All right, I end my turn," Pan said. "Let's see what you can do."
"You are going to regret telling me that!" Chris shouted as he drew (2). "I summon Tsukuyomi (1;1100/1400), which will flip Geordias face-down!" The transparent woman appeared, using a spell to turn Geordias into a card backing.
"Looks like you'll be able to destroy Geordias!" Pan thought aloud. "Of course, Tsukuyomi doesn't have enough power to beat me."
"She will in a moment!" Chris replied. "I use the equip spell Megamorph (0), which will double Tsukuyomi's power to 2200! Now I attack!" Chris' duel disk morphed into a sword. Chris ran forward and slashed through Geordias' card, returning it to Pan's fusion deck.
"Now, Tsukuyomi, direct attack! End this duel!" Tsukuyomi took out her fans, and threw them at Pan. They went right through him, ripping his shirt, and then returned to Tsukuyomi.
Chris: 0; Pan: 0"And that's game, with a perfect zero!" Chris happily shouted as the holograms faded.
"Way to go, Chris!" Sarah cheered.
"You won," Pan sighed. "Here's you Millennium Item," he said, taking out the Millennium Key. "I'll see you guys later… or not." Pan fainted, falling forward onto the green forest floor.
"Pan!" Chris shouted, rushing over to the youngest Tentei brother.
"It was a Shadow Game, Chris," Sam reminded Chris as everyone else walked over to Chris and Pan.
"Here's your Millennium Puzzle," Sarah said, returning the golden artifact.
'You did well,' Yami told Chris upon being returned to his owner.
"Thanks, Sarah," Chris said. 'Thanks, Yami.'
"So shall we continue?" Takashi asked as the forest disappeared, revealing a small room. It had bare steel walls, and two sets of doors. The set of doors that led to the next room opened as the holograms disappeared.
"Yeah, I guess," Chris sighed.
'That was an intense duel,' Kengake thought as the group proceeded into the next room. 'Chris couldn't win without losing all of his points first, and he was the second strongest of our group. If it was that difficult for Chris to win, there is no chance I will win my duel. I should get it over with now before the opponents get really strong. I should let down my friends sooner, instead of later.'
The next room was dark; the doors to the previous room immediately closed, cutting off the light from Pan's room. Three torches were on each side of room. This room was narrow, and led to a slightly raised platform that had a stone altar. The room was like a small church.
"I see you have defeated my brother, Pan," A man from behind the altar said. He wore a large black cloak that made him difficult to see.
"Who are you?" Sarah asked.
"I am Apollo! Second of the Tentei brothers, and the god of music, the sun, and most of all, destiny!" Apollo shouted, taking off his cloak in a graceful manner. He elegantly wore a purple sleeveless vest, a white sleeveless shirt underneath, and a purple tie. He wore long black formal pants. He had short, yet curly, blonde hair, and clear blue eyes.
"I will be dueling with the same rules as Pan did," Apollo declared. "You may pick who will duel me. And out of curiosity, which of you defeated my brother?"
"I defeated Pan," Chris stated, taking a small step forward.
Kengake sighed, and then declared, "And I will defeat you, Apollo."
"And who said you could duel?!" Takashi demanded.
"I thought you wanted to wait until the toughest opponent to duel," Sam recalled.
"Let Kengake duel if he wants to," Sarah insisted.
"Fine," Takashi grunted.
"So you will be dueling me?" Apollo asked as he and Kengake stepped into position. "I was actually hoping you would be the one I duel," he admitted as their duel disks activated.
"Duel!" They shouted as they drew their opening hands (5).
Kengake: 8000; Apollo: 8000
"I'll start," Kengake declaring, drawing another card (6). "First I play the continuous spell Fusion Power (5), so all of my monsters get a 300 point boost. And speaking of monsters, I'll kick things off with a fusion monster! I use Polymerization (4) to fuse F-Hero Angel (3;1400/800) and F-Hero Ice (2;700/700) into F-Hero Angelfreeze (1200+300/1200+300)!"
The two heroes were fused into an angel completely made of ice. Every time he flapped his frozen wings, a gust of cold wind covered the room.
"I set another card (1) and end," Kengake said.
"Interesting choice for your first turn," Apollo commented as he drew (6). "I summon Mystic Tomato (5;1400/1100), set two cards (3), and end." A vicious tomato materialized, grinning malevolently at Kengake. Two holographic cards appeared behind the evil plant.
"I guess you don't know my monster's effect," Kengake snickered as he drew (2). "I'll use it now by giving up my battle phase; freeze that plant!" F-Hero Angelfreeze created a large, cold, gust of wind. It created a block of ice that surrounded Mystic Tomato. "Mystic Tomato now has a Freeze Counter. A monster with a Freeze Counter can't attack or switch its position, while a spell or trap with one can't be activated and is destroyed during your standby phase," Kengake explained. "Anyway, I end."
"Now you'll see why I wanted to duel you," Apollo said as he drew (4). "I summon D-Hero Captain Tenacious (3;800/800)!" A muscular orange-haired man appeared with a large shield on each arm.
"D-Heroes…. Well, I've already dueled E-Heroes and E-Villains this year, so now it is the D-Heroes' turn!" Kengake declared.
"Too bad you will not be able to win," Apollo smirked. "Fate has already declared the warriors of destiny as the victor of my duel."
"I'll just change destiny."
"A common misconception: destiny cannot be changed," Apollo laughed. "Destiny is an inevitable event. It is in the definition: it is inevitable so it cannot be avoided. End turn."
"Draw (3)!" Kengake shouted. I've dueled D-Heroes before. As long as I stay on the top of my game I should be well. Of course, Apollo is even stronger than Pan, but… but I just need to try my hardest! "Captain Tenacious is not that strong, so I'll use Angelfreeze's effect on the set trap on your left!" Kengake's hero let out another burst of freezing wind, encasing one of Apollo's set cards in ice. "End turn."
"This duel is really boring," Sarah sighed as Apollo drew (4).
"They are just taking turns passing," Sam agreed.
"Things will pick up soon," Chris reassured them. "A duel can't end without anything happening."
"True," Takashi said as Apollo began his turn. The card covered in ice cracked, and the set D – Shield shattered.
"I play Pot of Greed (3)," Apollo said as the familiar green pot appeared, letting him draw two cards (5). "And summon D-Hero Blade Master (4;300/600)."
"D-Hero Blade Master activates in the hand, right?" Chris asked as the red and gray-armored hero appeared.
"Yes," Takashi grunted.
"Then why did Apollo summon him to the field?" questioned Chris.
"I think we're about to find out," Sam anxiously reasoned.
"This is the first phase of my ultimate plan," Apollo declared, looking at the spectators. "I tribute my three monsters to activate D – Force (3), so all warriors will be destroyed and you'll take damage equal to half of their power!"
The three monsters morphed into a large tornado that covered the entire field. When the tornado subsided, F-Hero Ice, with 1000 attack and defense, had replaced F-Hero Angelfreeze and some of Kengake's points were gone.
Kengake: 7250; Apollo: 8000"When Angelfreeze is destroyed I can summon an F-Hero from my grave," Kengake explained.
"I am not done with D – Force's effect," Apollo angrily stated. "Once D – Force has resolved it returns to my deck face-up. And when I draw it again… well, you will see then."
"D – Force? If its first effect was the first part of Apollo's plan, the second phase must be the second part," Sarah reasoned. "I hope Ken can make it through it."
"We all do," Sam replied.
"I end my turn," Apollo said.
Apollo must have something planned if he left his defense to his set card, Kengake thought as he drew (4). Of course, I don't have much offense. "I pass."
"And the duel is slow again," Chris sighed as Apollo drew (4). "I summon D-Hero Diamond Dude (3;1400/1600) and activate his effect." The blue-suited gray-haired man appeared, several diamonds jutting from his body. Apollo revealed the top card of his deck was a monster, and placed D-Hero Fear Monger (1000/1000) on the bottom of his deck.
"I guess Diamond Dude didn't help you," Kengake smirked.
"He brought D – Force one turn closer," Apollo simply replied. "I attack F-Hero Ice with Diamond Destruction!" Diamond Dude formed diamond needles in between his fingers, and threw them at Kengake's monster. The needles pierced Ice, causing him to shatter into pixels. "End turn."
"Ken is defenseless," Sarah moaned as Kengake drew a card (5).
"He didn't summon a monster last turn," Sam noted. "Does he have any in his hand?"
"I set a monster (4) and end," Kengake declared, answering Sam's question.
"I draw (4)," Apollo shouted, "And activate D-Hero Diamond Dude's effect." Apollo ripped the top card off his deck and showed it to Kengake, revealing it to be Terraforming. "Next turn I will be able to add a field in my deck to my hand," Apollo explained as he slid the spell into the graveyard.
"I summon D-Hero Captain Tenacious," Apollo played as a second copy of the redhead appeared.
"He has two monsters," Takashi said. "If he gets one more and D – Force, Kengake is going to be in trouble."
"He's in trouble now," Chris pointed out. "Apollo has two monsters, while Ken only has one."
"Diamond Dude, attack!" The man threw diamond needles again, but they went through Kengake's monster, a small man made of shadows.
"F-Hero Ghostguy (100+300/100+300) has the same effect as Spirit Reaper," Kengake explained, "So you can't destroy him in battle."
"I can easy destroy him with effects, so I use my set Shrink!" Apollo shouted. Ghostguy immediately shattered, and with an open field, Captain Tenacious was able to attack Kengake directly.
Kengake: 6450; Apollo: 8000"End turn," Apollo grinned.
"Draw (5)!" Kengake shouted. "First I set a card (4), and then I summon F-Hero Morphron (1100+300/1200+300)! Attack D-Hero Captain Tenacious!" A hero that had a humanoid shape, but was constantly shifting, appeared. It ran forward through Apollo's monster, destroying it.
Kengake: 6450; Apollo: 7400"I end," Kengake declared, two set traps on his field.
"That was a mistake," Apollo chuckled, "Summoning a monster in attack position." Apollo showed his duel disk to Kengake, revealing D – Force was on top. "I draw (4) and activate the effect of D – Force, summoning my the stronger creature that I have, Ultimate D (3000/3000)!"
See? I told you it was short :P Anyway, the reason it's so short is 'cause this was a real duel I actually had, and I felt this was a good part to cut it off. D-Force and Ultimate D have those names and effects because the person I was dueling made those cards after the GX epi where they were first revealed, but we didn't have their effects. So he made up those effects!
Anywayz, review plz :-P Yay!!
