That's it for this chapter. Sorry for the wait my computer's been acting up and had some exams to study for.
Chapter 22
A Quick Match
Mai gave her competitive look at the hooded figure. Roland got in the middle of the duel and explained everything about losing and all. He then turned to the two duelists.
"Let the duel begin!" Roland shouted.
"Okay let me start off!" Mai shouted.
She took six cards in her hand and the hooded figure did the same.
"I play Harpie Lady in defense mode and a card face down!" Mai shouted.
The hooded figure nodded in recognition. Mai could barely hear the hooded figure as the wind blew too hard to hear. The figure placed two cards face down and nodded for Mai to go on.
While down on the floor with the gang.
"I couldn't hear what he said." Tristan said.
"Neither could I." Said Serenity.
Yugi felt his Millennium Puzzle glow and he looked down at the puzzle.
/What is up with the Millennium Puzzle?/ Yugi asked.
Yami came up beside him.
/Something is wrong, the person Mai is dueling must have a dangerous card./ Yami said.
/How can you tell?/ Asked Yugi.
/Remember the when we were at duelist kingdom and those two twins came up with that three piece monster./ Yami said.
/Yeah. Do you think it's that./ Yugi asked.
Yami shook his head.
/No, but it feels like I encounter this card before…from another time./ Yami said almost to himself.
Yugi was about to asked what he meant when he saw Mai attacked with Harpie Lady right after she turned a card over. He saw one of the cards flipped over to reveal Ancient Angel and Harpie Lady was destroy right there even after Mai had flipped one of her cards over.
Everyone looked at the monster shock that it actually destroyed Harpie Lady.
"No way how can that monster beat Harpie Lady it doesn't have even a lot of attack points." Joey gasped.
All of sudden the whole dueling ring was shinning with white light making everyone except for the hooded figure to cover their eyes. When they looked back up Mai's life points went down to zero and Mai was on her knees.
"Impossible. There's no way Mai's life points would go down that quickly." Joey said.
"But it did." Duke said.
Yugi notice a card was flipped over.
"Unless the hooded figure played a drain card." Yugi said.
"A drain what?" Joey asked.
"A drain card it can suck anyone's life points." Said Duke.
Joey, Tristan, and Serenity looked at Duke and Yugi.
"How do you guys know about that card?" Joey asked.
"I heard about it from grandpa. It's the only trap card of its kind." Yugi said.
"I learned about it from Pegasus." Said Duke.
Yugi, Joey, Tristan, and Serenity turned to face Duke.
"He only made one trap card and he never used it." Said Duke.
"Why is that?" Said Joey.
"Yeah he seemed to be the type of guy who would use it for a quick win." Said Tristan.
"He was, but he wanted to show off his dueling skills." Said Duke.
"And why did he put this card out?" Yugi asked.
"I don't know. He said he would never send that trap card out that would only give the duelist an unfair advantage.. That's all I know, but from the way Pegasus described it. That card is unbeatable." Said Duke.
"Did he say that?" Yugi question.
"Yes." Duke answered.
"That card must have a weakness." Said Yugi.
And if I face this hooded figure I'll figure it out. Thought Yugi.
While over were Kaiba and Mokuba watch in awe and wonder.
"That card. Where would that hunter get it?" Kaiba asked himself.
Kaiba looked down when he felt Mokuba tugging on his sleeve.
"Do you want me to look up what kind of trap card that is." Mokuba asked.
Kaiba nodded.
"Yes. I'll be there in a minute." Said Kaiba.
"No way. You should stay to see if you're dueling next. I have it cover." Mokuba replied.
Mokuba turned and left to the computer room while Mai and the hooded figure came down from the dueling ring. Mai's head was down from sadness and hurt of the lost she just suffered.
"Are you okay Mai?" Serenity asked.
Mai looked up at everyone around her and looked like she was waking up from a bad dream.
"Mai?" Serenity question growing nervous.
Mai shook her head.
"I'm fine." Mai answered.
She gave Serenity a half-hearted smile.
"What happened up there?" Joey asked.
"Isn't it oblivious I lost by one card." Mai muttered.
"Yeah, but where he get a card like that?" Joey asked.
"That's what I want to know." Yugi said mostly to himself.
Yugi help me.
Yugi looked up and looked around and then Yami switched places with Yugi and looked around.
"Tea." Yami said.
Yugi please…save me…
The voice sounded like Tea only a bit of a distant away. Yami turned to face the hooded figure only to notice that the hooded figure was looking his direction.
Could it be that the hooded figure is Tea? Yami thought.
He took a step towards the hooded figure when he felt someone's hand on his shoulder making him jump and turned around to see Joey.
"Hey man we need to go down to see who duels next." Said Joey.
Yami nodded. Joey turned and walked down to where they could hear who would duel next. Yami turned in hopes of seeing the hooded figure, but to his disappointment, the hooded figure vanished.
/So do you think it's Marik's trick./ Yugi asked.
Yami shook his head.
/I'm starting to get the feeling that Tea maybe on the blimp. I'm just not sure where./ Yami said.
That's it for this chapter. I hope you all enjoyed.
