Episode 9: The Rainbow Dragon (Pt.1)
Pallet Town, Japan (2008)
In a small house just outside this town, a lady in a yellow dress and with red hair named Deliah Ketchum was reading a magazine when her phone rang. She blinked her eyes in confusion and asked herself "I wonder who that could be at this time in the night? Ash already called me earlier." Curious, Deliah answered her phone to hear Big's voice. "Big, is that you?"
"Yea, it's me! How have you been?"
"I'm okay! How have you been?"
"Let's just say I haven't been having a good month recently!"
"Oh! I heard on the news about these weird duelists that steal people's souls and that your step-father was one of the victims! I'm so sorry!"
"Please don't be! None of this is your fault!"
"I know! I'm just so sorry for all of this! I know it's hard for you! Why don't you come to visit?"
"I can't! Right now, my problems are getting worse, and if I can't stop it in time, them there isn't going to be a future for anyone on this planet!"
"Big, please be careful! I don't want to lose you too."
"You won't!"
After some more words, Deliah hangs up the phone only for it to ring again. "Hello?" she asks, as a mysterious voice replies "It's time!" Deliah's eyes open wide in horror, as her phone drops to the floor.
Domino City, Japan.......
Big hangs up on his cellphone, as he sits down on the ground to try & calm down. Little, his sister, walks over to him and asks "What's the next step?" Big sighed and replied "I heard of a card Carlos once told me of that can stop Yubel. It was so powerful then even he couldn't be able to beat it." Little seemed suprised, as Big stood up and said "Luckily, I remember where Carlos told me it was, so with luck, I'll be able to find it." Little then asked "What do you want me to do with these cards then?" Big replied "Head to Miami and wait for me there. This won't take long!" With that, Big took off to the east, as Little soon told herself "You better watch yourself, Big!" as she soon did the same & headed for the States!
Meanwhile, in Tokyo-3 (2015)......
One day, as Shinji was walking around the remains of the original Tokyo, he heard the sound of a piano being played, as he asked himself "Where that sound is coming from?" Shinji walk onward until he saw a figure at the piano. It was a boy with a white school shirt, black pants, an orange undershirt, and grey hair. "Who are you?" Shinji asked, as the boy stopped playing and looked at Shinji, as he replies "It is an honor to meet you, Shinji Ikari!" Shocked, Shinji soon asked "How do you know who I am?" The boy smiles before replying "I am Kaworu Nagisa, the 5th Child!" Shinji was shocked, as Kaworu soon added "I have been briefed on the creature NERV has 'befriended' as well. I am looking forward to meeting him." Kaworu soon got up and procedded to leave, as he even had Shinji stumped. However, Shinji told himself "There is something wrong with this guy."
Back in 2008.........
At an unknown location, Big landed at a nearby hole in an undisclosed location. "So, if I remember correctly, this was the place" Big said, as he jumped into the hole and noticed it was too dark to see anything. At that second, his eyes turned yellow, as the entire hallway revealed itself to Big to be a simple one-directional hallway leading into a room of some sort. Once he went passed the door and entered the room, Big saw a strange table revealing a tablet of a large dragon-like creature. "Is this Rainbow Dragon?" he asks himself, when he suddenly sensed something was wrong. The entire room suddenly lit up thanks to torches that were in different parts of the room. At that same time, a person in a brown cloak appeared, as Big could tell by this person's chest that it was a young woman. "I know what you seek, but I cannot allow you to posess it." The Cloaked Woman said. Big soon asked "And how, exactly, do you know what I seek?" The Cloaked Woman replied "You are like everyone else! You only seek the power of Rainbow Dragon just to harm others! I have been placed as guardian of this special deity in order to make sure that it never falls into the hands of evil." Big sighs and says "I understand that you care for this dragon, but I need Rainbow Dragon's help to stop Yubel, and it's the only card that's capable of stopping her." The Cloaked Woman soon reveals a GX Duel Disk and says "I still cannot allow you to take this harmless dragon for your profit. Now, it's time for you to face his wrath." Big soon sets his Battle City Duel Disk as well, as he says "Then, I guess I have no other choice." The 2 soon stare at each other, as the duel was on.
Big (4000 LP) vs. Cloaked Woman (4000 LP)
START OF DUEL
The Cloaked Woman draws a card & says "I shall begin this duel!" as she looks at her hand (Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat, Crystal Beast Emerald Tortoise, Gem Tree, Mine Blasting, Rainbow Gravity & Golden Rule)! With this hand, she told herself "Soon enough, you shall feel the power of the Rainbow Dragon!" Then, she announced "First, I activate the magic card, Gem Tree!" When this happened, a strange, dried-up tree, appeared on her field. "This card allows me a 'Gem Counter' each time a monster of moved into on empty M/T zone. Afterwards, you'll figure out the rest soon enough. Next, though, I summon Crystal Beast Emerald Tortoise in DEF mode!" as a strange green emerald appeared on her field. Big was confused, at first, but the emerald suddenly turned into a green tortoise that hid in it's shell with emerald spikes on the top of it's shell (3-star/2000 DEF). Big soon asked "What the hell is that thing?" as the Cloaked Woman replies "This is the Emerald Tortoise, a member of the Crystal Beasts! It is told in stories that when all 7 are brought together, the Rainbow Dragon will awaken." Big seemed confused at first, but quickly understood. "You mean, that when all 7 are played, your Rainbow Dragon will show itself, right?" The Cloaked Woman nods, as she soon says "Now, I shall equip my Tortoise with the magic card, Golden Rule! It lets me move 2 Crystal Beasts with 3-stars or lower from my deck to 2 empty M/T zones." As she said that, an indigo & orange crystal appeared in 2 of her M/T zones. Big soon thought to himself "I see now! These Crystal Beasts are capable of becoming immortal even after being destroyed in battle. However, I bet that if all 5 of her M/T zones are filled up, they won't be so immortal any longer. The question is what do I do if Rainbow Dragon does show up." The Cloaked Woman soon said "Next, Golden Rule allows me to special summon 1 Crystal Beat in my hand with 3-stars or lower, and I choose my Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat!" At this moment, a violet crystal appears on her field, which suddenly turns into a pinkish cat with a necklase around her neck (3-star/1200 ATK). Big only seemed focused, as the Cloaked Woman said "I shall play one card face down & end my turn." as a card appeared in front of her.
Big draws a card & looks at his hand now (E-Hero Sparkman, Call of the Haunted, Hero Barrier, Flute Of Summoning Kuriboh, E-Hero Bladedge & Spark Blaster), as he makes a realization ''It seems she forgot something important. With her entire M/T zone filled up, these Crystal Beasts are stuck. So, this is the only chance I'm gonna get to strike back." Then, he announces "I summon E-Hero Sparkman in ATK mode." With this, the Sparkman appeared and stared at the 2 Crystal Beasts (4-star/1600 ATK). The Cloaked Woman suddenly asks "I see you have a powerful monster, but clearly you don't think you can get through my Tortoise, can you?" Big soon replies "Oh, I think I can. I activate the magic card, Spark Blaster & equip it to Sparkman." Suddenly, a strange blaster-like weapon appears on the Sparkman's right hand, as Big says "This equip. magic card gives Sparkman the ability to change the battle position of any monster on the field, including your Emerald Tortoise." If we could see her eyes, the Cloaked Woman would have been shocked, as the Sparkman fired a round from his gun at the Emerald Tortoise & suddenly, he showed himself fully as he prepared for battle (800 ATK). Big soon said "Sparkman, attack his Emerald Tortoise now!" Sparkman complied, as he fired an electrical jolt at the Emerald Tortoise and destroyed it, as the Cloaked Woman lost 800 LP.
Cloaked Woman 3200 LP
The Cloaked Woman soon said "And now, thanks to his immortal effect, Emerald Tortoise will reappear in my M/T zone." However, she noticed that Emerald Tortoise didn't reappear as a crystal. "Huh? Hey, where is he?" she soon asked, as Big replied "In the graveyard. Your Crystal Beasts are only immortal as long as there is space in your M/T zone. Otherwise, their just as mortal as any other monster in play." Big then announced "I'll place 3 cards face down & end my turn." as 3 cards appear in front of him. Then, the Cloaked Woman said " Now, it's my turn." as she drew a card (Rare Value), as she soon says "I activate my Mine Blasting trap card. This card sends the top 5 cards in my deck to the graveyard & prevents me from drawing on my next turn." As this happened, she discarded her next 5 cards (Necro Gardna, Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle, Induced Summon, Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger & Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus) as Big noticed something very wrong. "Wait, what are you up to?" he asked before adding "Surely, you're not trying to one-up me, are you?" The Cloaked Woman replied "Oh, just wait for it. Until then, I activate the magic card, Rare Value! By sending one Crystal Beast in my M/T Zone to the graveyard, I can draw 2 cards." By playing this card, her indigo crystal disappears, as she draws 2 cards (Gem Release & M-Force), she announces "I now activate the equip card, Gem Release & equip it to my Amethyst Cat. With this card, she gains 800 points." The Amethyst Cat soon purs loudly, as she gets stronger (1200 + 800=2000 ATK). Then, she says "And, to make it stronger, I activate M-Force. With this card, she'll gain an additional 500 points for 1 turn." The Amethyst Cat soon purrs lowder, as she gets even stronger (2000 + 500=2500 ATK). However, as Big thinks to himself, saying "Even if she manages to attack Sparkman, I can block the attack with Hero Barrier. " However, what he wasn't expecting were her next words. "Now, by cutting her attack, in half, she can attack you directly. " Big stared wide-eyed in shock, as Amethyst Cat jumped over Sparkman & struck Big directly with half of her attack. (2500/2= 1250 damage)
Big 2750 LP
Big held his chest in pain, as the Cloaked Woman soon said "Now, with everything ready, I'll place 1 card face down & end my turn." as a card appears in front of her. Big manages to catch his breathe, as he takes his turn & draws a card (Silent Doom). Then, he announces "Sparkman, use your Spark Blaster!" Sparkman nodded, as he fired the 2nd round at Amethyst Cat & switched her to DEF position (400 DEF). Then, he said "Sparkman, attack now!" Sparkman nodded and did so, firing another electrical bolt at the Amethyst Cat and destroyed her along with her Gem Release card. However, as a violet crystal appeared in an M/T zone on her field, the Cloaked Woman suddenly said "Thank you for doing that, Big." Of course, the hero himself soon asked "And why's that?" as she replied "Because now I can finally activate the trap card, Rainbow Gravity!" As the Cloaked Woman activated, a large glow with the colors of the Rainbow suddenly appeared around them. "ARGH! What's going on here?" Big asked, as the Cloaked Woman replied "It's simple! Rainbow Gravity activates when all 7 Crystal Beasts are rather on my field, in my M/T zone, or in the graveyard. Since their are 6 in the graveyard & one in my M/T zone, it's officially legit. And now, with it, I can summon Rainbow Dragon!" Big was in shock, as the same tablet from before suddenly had a large opening into it and a much larger white dragon with orbs around the sides of it's body soon appeared behind the Cloaked Woman. (10-star/ 4000 ATK) Big stared at this site & said "Oh my god!" The Cloaked Woman laughed in victory, unaware that the force of Rainbow Dragon's appearance suddenly forced her hood off to reveal a woman with red hair & brown eyes. Big's eyes were now in horror as to what he just saw. "DELIAH???"
Meanwhile, in Tokyo-3 (2015).........
Kaworu, later on, found himself at NERV as he came across Rei. Of course, not being stupid herself, Rei turned to her right to notice Kaworu's appearance, as she asked "Who are you?" Kaworu looked at Rei and said "I am Kaworu Nagisa, and you must be Rei Ayanami." In a way, Rei looked at him and said "I am, but how did you know of that?" Kaworu only replied "I have my secrets, but rest assure that soon enough, the era of humanity will come to it's end." Kaworu soon left, but as he did, Rei soon told herself "I do not trust him!"
Back in 2008.....
Big couldn't believe his eyes. His girlfriend, Deliah, was the Cloaked Woman this whole time. And the only thing that could have actually made this worse had happened: She managed to summon an extremely powerful monster with 4000 ATK. "Deliah, why?" Big asked, and added "Why would you keep this from me?" Deliah, in that moment, could only blink, unable to answer. Then, she replied "This is something that I had to keep from you, Big. Just as you keep your past to yourself, so do I." Big, however, asked "If that's so, why all this?" Deliah, however, replied "Because this is part of my old life. As much as I didn't want to do this, this is the only way to keep the Rainbow Dragon away from any sort of evil. And that, Big, includes you." Realizing that the challenge just got harder, Big & his E-Hero Sparkman stare off at Deliah & her Rainbow Dragon with the single thought of trying to figure out just how to survive.
To Be Continued!
*****************************************************************************************************
That's it for this episode, but here's the plot for the next episode:
Big continues his duel against Deliah, as he tries to counter-attack against the powerful attack of the Rainbow Dragon. However, as it gets down to the wire, Big must choose to rather forfeit the duel or harm the woman who holds his heart. Meanwhile, somewhere in Tokyo-3, another enemy is about to make his move, and prepares to take down the 1st, 2nd & 3rd Child.......
And, as customary, here's the 'card of the chapter':
Rainbow Dragon (Deliah's card)
(10-star; 4000/0; Light; Dragon/Effect)
This card can only be special summoned when all 7 "Crystal Beasts" are in play, in an empty M/T zone, and/or if they are in your graveyard. The following effects cannot be activated on the turn it's summoned:
()Send all "Crystal Beasts" on your field or M/T zone to the graveyard. For each one sent, this card gains 1000 ATK. This effect can be activated on either player's turn.
()Remove all "Crystal Beasts" in your graveyard from the game to return all cards on the field back to their respective player's decks.
Okay, that's it! See you guys next time!
