It was on every channel just like last time.

"Live from a secret location, it's the show that no body wants to see, but everyone will watch! It's the BILLY JOBS DUEL OF DEATH!"

The whole world was watching the duel, but they were appalled at the stakes. Everyone at Academy Island was awoken by the news of the duel and was shocked by it, all Jaden's fans across the world were watching in terror, and Billy was enjoying every moment of it.

"The whole world is about to see what a big fat fake you are, Jaden Yuki…"

Despite the intense hatred Jaden felt for Billy, especially with the raw power of the Supreme King coursing through his veins, he decided to try one last time to reason with him.

"Look Bill… I know you've suffered a horrible tragedy, and you're probably just trying to fill the void it left behind, but what you're doing is wrong!"

"Great tragedy, what the hell are you talking about?"

"Your parents, when you were just a kid they died in a car crash."

Much to Jaden's surprise Billy started laughing.

"What is so funny?"

"Listen Jaden, I wanted my parents to die!"

"What…?"

"YES, I DID IT! I CUT THE BREAK LINE ON THEIR CAR THAT RAINY NIGHT! AND I'D DO IT AGAIN!!!"

"What!?!"

"There is no good and evil Jaden, there is only you, what you want, and anyone that gets in your way. They were the only thing that stood in-between me and my inheritance, so I got rid of them! Now the one thing that I want more than anything in this world is Alexis, and nothing is gonna stand in my way! Least of all you and that thing she's carrying!"

"That thing you're talking about is my son or daughter! And I'm not going to let you harm him, or her! I'll stop you, no matter what the cost!"

"Go ahead and try!"

"Let's duel!"

(Insert heavy metal rock background music)

"Since I'm the one holding all the cards here, I'll make the first move! I'll summon a monster in defense mode and end my turn."

Billy didn't even move his hands to pick up and play his cards; it was done by a device on his duel disk.

"A feeble start!"

The others were looking worryingly at Jaden, they knew what would happen if the power of the Supreme King consumed him.

"Relax guys." said Syrus "He's in control… I hope."

Jaden looked at the cards in his hand, unfortunately he didn't have much to go on, but he knew that with one monster on his field Billy could sacrifice it to summon Jinzo, or if he played that Rushed Production spell of his then he could summon a level seven or higher monster like his Perfect Machine King, he had to take a chance.

"I summon Elemental Hero Sparkman!"

(ATK: 1600 DEF: 1400)

"Sparkman, attack his face down monster!"

"I knew you couldn't resist attacking my monster, big mistake!"

Billy's monster revealed itself.

"That's a Blast Sphere!" exclaimed Aster.

"A Blast Sphere?"

The Blast Sphere attached itself to Sparkman.

"On your next turn my Blast Sphere will explode and take your Sparkman with it, and the best part is that its attack points will be dealt to you as damage. But while we're waiting for that it's my turn. I'll lay one card face down and summon a monster in defense mode, and I guess I'll leave it at that."

"My turn, first I draw!"

At that moment Blast Sphere exploded, taking Sparkman with it.

(Jaden: 2400)

Suddenly Jaden's cage was surrounded by a wall of fire.

"AGHH!"

"Jaden!"

After about ten seconds the fire died down.

"What the heck was that?!"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you Jaden, whenever you lose life points in this duel, you're going to get burned."

"What?!"

"When you lose this duel you'll be food for my hungry crocodiles down there, and I believe even animals deserve a warm meal."

"You're going to pay for that! First I activate the spell card The Warrior Returning Alive, which I'll use to bring Sparkman back from my graveyard to my hand. Next I activate the spell card Polymerization to fuse Sparkman and Necroshade to summon Elemental Hero Darkbright!"

(ATK: 2000 DEF: 1000)

"Darkbirght, attack his facedown monster!"

Billy's monster revealed itself, it was Gear Golem the Moving Fortress.

(ATK: 800 DEF: 2200)

"NO!"

"Yes, since your attack isn't stronger than Gear Golem's defense, you take 200 points of damage."

(Jaden: 2200)

Jaden's cage was consumed in fire again, only it didn't last as long.

"And since your Darkbright attacked, it is automatically changed to defense position."

(DEF: 1000)

"Now it's my turn, and activate my Spoils of War spell card!"

(For those of you that haven't read "Dog Fight" this is not a real card, but I wish it was)

"Next I'll summon my Mechanicalchaser!"

(ATK: 1850 DEF: 800)

"Mechanicalchaser, destroy his Elemental Hero Darkbright!"

Billy's Mechanicalchaser's blades went through Darkbright like a hot knife through butter.

"Thanks to my Spoils of War spell, whenever one of your monsters is destroyed, I get to draw two cards from my deck."

"But by destroying Darkbright you've activated his special effect, now I get to destroy one of your monsters, and I choose your Gear Golem!"

Billy's gear golem exploded, but at that moment several projectiles flew from the smoke and struck Jaden dealing 700 points of damage.

(Jaden: 1500)

Jaden's cage was once again engulfed in fire.

"What just happened?!"

"When you destroyed my Gear Golem you activated my face down Shrapnel, from now on whenever you destroy one of my machine monsters you'll take 700 points of damage."

(Not a real card)

The duel had just started and Jaden had already lost more than half his life points, and Billy hadn't lost any. To top it all off Jaden knew Billy was just toying with him; he didn't want to think about what would happen when he brought in the big guns.

"When we last dueled Jaden I was but the learner, now I am the master."

"What?"

"Sorry, I got caught up in the moment, but one way or another you will fall before my superior cards. You're just using a lot of freaks in tights; my machine monsters have fire power and heavy armor, we're war machines, we're iron mongers!"

"Yes… and I can see that you're just as cold and uncaring as those machines… You don't love Alexis… For you she's just another shiny toy for you to play with twice, get bored, and sell it on ebay!"

"You can talk all you want Jaden… But that still doesn't change facts… When this duel is over you'll be gator food and Alexis will be mine!"

In the cell surrounded by the others Alexis could feel her baby kicking like crazy, it was like it could somehow sense it was in danger, she wanted to tell it everything was going to be okay… but this was just like in her nightmares.

"This can't be happening… tell me this isn't really happening!"
