Chapter 9
Ground Duel 2: Dueling the Mind
Asano walked down the halls to Jax's garage where his friends hold him where he was. He went to the door and opened it to find Jax sitting on a chair with a girl with long flowing pink hair sitting on his lap who was kissing him passionately until Asano opened the door. He froze at what he saw "Oh my god I'm sorry!" he said averting his eyes from the sight."
"No, no it's okay, is there something you want?" asked Jax.
"Yes, there is, I came to tell you about your next opponent, Her name is Anita Warren, she's a psychic duelist that was kicked out of the arcadia movement because she was deemed to temperamental and she went over the top in beating down her opponent, She was a lost soul so to speak, nearly lost the will to duel until Yoshio found her and brought her into our ranks. I must warn you, her strategy is to swarm the field with high power Psychic monsters, and not many have faced her and kept their sanity stable." Explained Asano.
"Whoa, this keeps getting better and better." Said Jax as he fingered his deck case at his side.
"Anita is NOT a person to fool around with!" he snapped making Jax and Rika jump "sorry, I've seen so many people loose their sanity after they loose to her, and I don't want to see a fellow Dragon duelist brought to his knees before her." He said and reached into his pocket. "Here this may help." He said handing him a card.
Jax looked at the card. If what he says is true about her swarming the field with high power Psychic monsters I'll have to time it right, this could be devastating for her thought Jax "Thank you." He said and removed one of his cards and slid it into his deck.
1 HOUR AND MORE MAKING OUT ON JAX AND RIKA"S PART LATER…
Jax stood on the platform that rose to the field and appeared in a billow of smoke "And here we have the proud and powerful Dragon warrior Jax Cambell!" announced the commentator to thunderous applause. "And as for his opponent is the mysterious Anita Warren!" he called into his mike
IN THE STANDS…
Aki gasped Yusei looked at her, "You know her?" he asked
"Yes, she was in the arcadia movement like me, she was always vying for Divine's attention, he eventually chucked her out claiming she was too temperamental, yet she's a good duelist all the same, Jax will have his work cut out for him in this duel." She said
Rika looked out the window at Jax standing there looking at his deck. You can do it Jax, we're all behind you! She thought
BACK AT THE FIELD…
"Listen kid, you don't have what it takes to bring me down, just quit dreaming and go home!" she snapped.
"Not with all my friends watching me." He said sliding his deck into place "It's Time to Duel, as the legendary Yugi Mouto said himself.
"It's your funeral." She said doing the same
"LET"S DUEL!" they said together
Jax's LP: 4000
Anita's LP: 4000
"I'll start." Said Anita drawing a card "And I think I'll start by Playing the spell card Psi Station, and play Double Summon, allowing me to normal summon twice, and I summon Psychic Commander (3/1400/800), and trigger the effect of Psi-Station at the cost of 500 Life points, I can up my monster's attack by 300 and it's level by 1(34/14001700), Next I'll summon Dr. Cranium (1/100/100)" She declared
Jax's LP: 4000
Anita's LP: 3500
Jax rolled his eyes, "Are you ever going to do something better than that? All you're doing is making it easier to knock you out of the duel." Said Jax.
"You're right, How about I do something that you're used to yourself… How about a syncro summon!" she said with an evil look on her face.
"A what?!" exclaimed Jax.
"Yes!" she said "For I'll tune up my Dr. Cranium with Psychic commander to summon: Magical Android (5/2400/1700)"
"Okay wrong words." Said Jax as he saw the monster
"I'll set two cards face down and end my turn and at the end of my turn, Thanks to Magical Android's special ability, I gain 600 Life points for each Psychic monster I control so there is only one so I gain 600 Life Points." Said Anita
Jax's LP: 4000
Anita's LP: 4100
"And my move" said Jax, drawing his card and looked at his hand "I'll set two cards face down and set a monster in defense mode, Your move." Said Jax
"And your devastation begins." Said Anita drawing her own card. "I play the spell card Dian Kieto the cure master to gain me 1000 life points." She declared as her life points went up again."
Jax's LP: 4000
Anita's LP: 5100
"I'll now play another Psychic commander (3/1400/800), and I'll now attack your facedown monster with it!" she declared as the robotic soldier atop a strange tank shot down Jax's monster.
Jax's LP: 4000
Anita's LP: 4600
"congratulations, you've activated my monster's ability, Masked Dragon allows me to specials summon a dragon with 1500 or less attack points in my deck to my hand!" exclaimed Jax as another Masked Dragon rose in the last one's place.
"Fine I'll take down the other one with my Magical Android." Said Anita as the android took down his second Masked Dragon.
"And once again My dragon's ability activates bringing forth My Magna Drago (4/1400/600), in defense mode!" declared Jax
"Don't forget that at the end of my turn I gain LP equal to 600x the number of psychic monsters on my field so I gain 1200 life points!" she called out
Jax's LP: 4000
Anita's LP: 5800
"And it's my turn." Said Jax "And I'll activate the trap card Metal Reflect Slime, once activated, it becomes a monster with 3000 defense."
"Heh, a big blocker won't do anything against me!" she exclaimed with a laugh
"Maybe this will." Said Jax "For I sacrifice my Metal Reflect Slime to summon Horus The Black Flame Dragon LV6, and next I tune them together… Dragon Kin that come and go, come and aid me here below, serpents one and serpents all, come and heed my dragon call! Syncro summon: Red Dragon Archfiend (8/3000/2000)! I will Now attack your android with him!" declared Jax as his dragon launched a blast of fire at the android.
"Hold up, I activate my trap card Magic Cylinder so you now take 3000 points of damage!" said Anita as the blast hit Jax instead
Jax's LP: 1000
Anita's LP: 5800
"I'll set two card face down and end turn." Said Jax
"And it's my move." Said Anita "and I play the spell card Teleport, as long as this card is on the field, I can pay 800 Life points to special summon one Psychic monster from my hand and I choose Storm caller in attack mode (6/2300/2000), and then I will tune him up with Psychic Commander to summon Hyper Psychic Blaster (9/3000/2500)."
At that moment something very weird happened as the two duelists started speaking in Unison this is what they said: "Our monsters have equal attack points but Not for long, go, Assault Mode Activate!" they called out and both their syncro monsters were sacrificed for their Assault modes as on Jax's side of the field His Red Dragons Archfiend/assault Mode arose (10/3500/2500), and on Anita's side was Hyper Psychic Blaster Assault Mode (11/3500/3000).
"Um… this complicates things." Said Jax
"Yes… yes it does, but I'm not madding the same mistake twice, I'm playing Harpie's Feather Duster to wipe out all your spell and Traps!" she said.
Jax sighed "Okay you asked for It, I'll trigger my trap card Judgment of Anubis, at the cost of one card from my hand I'll negate and destroy your spell plus as a bonus feature I can nail one of your monsters to the grave and it's attack comes out of your life points!"
Jax's LP:1000
Anita's LP:2300
Anita groaned with annoyance "fine but don't forget that if my Hyper psychic Blaster/Assault Mode the original comes back to the field which grants me another 1800 LP thanks to my android. She said
"Don't worry I haven't forgotten." Said Jax as he drew his card excellent. He thought "I summon Junk Warrior who has a useful in my case special ability to allow a level 2 or lower monster in my grave back to the field and I choose the monster I ditched with Judgment of Anubis: Red Eyes Black Chick, and I'll tune up My two monsters to summon Armory Arm."
"Oh my god you aren't serious about doing this are you?" asked Anita
""When I duel I never hold back, I'm equipping Armory arm to my Red Dragon Archfiend Assault Mode to amp his attack up by 1000 and give him the ability to take the attack of a monster that the equipped monster destroys out of your life points (35004500)!"
"Holy Sh*t" exclaimed Anita as her monster was destroyed and her lifepoints went down below zero.
"AND ONCE MORE JAX NEVER FAILS TO SURPRISE US, ARE WE SEEING THE NEXT LEADER OF THE DUELIST TEMPLARS IN ACTION?" exclaimed the commentator.
Author's fact...
When I saw the episode of 5ds that introduced the Nazca Lines I thought they were something created for the Anime... At least until I stumbled upon a part of the TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society) Website that mentioned them that I looked them up on Wikiapedia and found out that they ARE real, and can only be seen from an altitude, anyone else who reads this who knows anything about this feel free to share their info with me!
