Hiccup was facing Phantom in a duel and things were looking bad for him, but he had just now unleash the power of the Supreme King which had turned the tide considerably.
Hiccup: 2000
Phantom: 4000
"Now let's finish what we started," said Phantom.
Hiccup looked up at Phantom, with his now piercing yellow eyes, the last time Astrid and the others had seen those eyes it was when they face the Supreme King.
"Hiccup," said Astrid concern.
"Is it still you?" Fishlegs asked with a twinge of fear.
"Don't worry about me, guys," said Hiccup as a burning aura covered his body. "I'm okay, I understand what needs to be done to win this duel. I have to use the power of the Supreme King."
"What?" Phantom stared.
"That's right, I cannot be afraid of him anymore," said Hiccup looking at his hand. "As Speedfist said, we are two sides of the same coin. He's a part of me and I'm a part of him and together were going to defeat you!"
"Defeat me," said Phantom.
"Yeah, and it begins with this," said Hiccup as he drew. He immediately held the card out. "I play Spirit Wave! And with this spell card I will bring out my Dragon Spirits. Phantom, these are the cards that were infused with the energy I wanted you to have. With their and the power of the Supreme King you don't stand a chance! And now I remove my Dragon Knights Barf, Belch and Hookfang to call out a Dragon Spirits Aqua, Dawn and Ventus!"
Everyone watched as his free Dragon Knights vanished from the field and then was soon replaced with his Dragon Spirits of water, light and wind, who appeared in defence mode. (ATK: 600/ DEF: 900), (ATK: 500/ DEF: 900), (ATK: 700/ DEF: 500)
"These cards have always been by my side and in a second Phantom you get to meet them up close and personal," said Hiccup.
"I'll look forward the opportunity, to think after all these years I might actually get the chance to destroy the cards that replaced me from your heart," said Phantom viciously. "And it is you that will help me do it. Remember, Hiccup, for every spell card you play my Spell Chronicler gains another power and in the end it will destroy you and your Dragon Spirits."
Hiccup watched as the second magic circle lit up.
"Well I'm not changing my game plan, spell card no spell card, Phantom," said Hiccup and then reached for another card in his hand. "Now check this out, I play the spell card Spirit Evolution!"
"Lucky for you, Hiccup," said Phantom.
"You're Spell Chronicle pages are now full so the spells will keep on coming," said Hiccup.
"That's right," Yellow smiled. "Now Hiccup doesn't have to worry."
"Not true," said Fishlegs grimly. "Even though her Spell Chronicle cannot be charged any more, next round Phantom will be able to unleash its power and force Hiccup to make her hand stronger."
"And we're the card he chooses he gets closer to be forced to pick Super Polymerization," Astrid added.
"Now thanks to my Spirit Evolution spell card my Dragon Spirit Dawn evolves into Dragon Spirit Rising Dawn!" Hiccup announced.
Dawn then began to glow even more brightly and once the light faded she even looked even more elegant than before. Her long blonde hair now reached to the small of her back, her white claws had become even more elegant and razor sharp and she now had a pair of beautiful white wings that gleamed in the sunlight. (ATK: 700/ DEF: 1100)
Ventus then rose into the air. "And now I'll use my special ability," she said.
Immediately a calm wind blew across the field and gave Hiccup some strength.
"Thanks Ventus," Hiccup smiled. "So for every card in your hand Phantom I get 500 life points."
Hiccup: 3000
Phantom: 4000
"And then I'll have Rising Dawn attack, but thanks to her special ability I get to draw a card and depending on what kind of card I draw a special ability is activated," said Hiccup as he drew. He had drawn a spell card with an image of present clamped dragon's claw. "And it looks like I got a spell card so now Rising Dawn can attack you directly!"
"I hope this stings," said Rising Dawn as she created a spear for pure light and then tossed it at Phantom.
Hiccup: 3000
Phantom: 3300
"But I'm not done," said Hiccup as he held at the spell card he drawn. "Because now I'm playing Dragon's Gift! With this spell I get to draw a card straight from my deck, one for each Dragon Spirit on my side of the field!"
Hiccup then drew three cards he then immediately placed one of them facedown on the field. "And to end my turn, I lay down a facedown."
Phantom chuckled. "Hiccup, the darkness in you grow stronger."
"That's because I'm letting it grow," said Hiccup strongly. "But this time I'm the one who's in control. The darkness is a power you awoken me and now I'm gonna use that power for victory!"
Phantom laughed. "Hiccup, do you honestly think you can control such a power?"
"Well, Phantom, were going to find out soon enough aren't we?" said Hiccup. "We both know that only one of us can be the winner, now let's find out who's it going to be! With the help of my Dragon Spirits and the power of the Supreme King I am taking you down Phantom once and for all!"
Phantom narrowed her eyes. "Oh, we shall see. It's my move, I draw," said Phantom as he drew. "And now because of my Spell Chronicle is at full power again you get to choose another card."
Soon the four remaining cards appeared above.
"All right, I choose Fiend Rose," said Hiccup.
"Good," said Phantom of the card appeared in her hand. "And now our monsters will battle."
Phantom's doppelganger eyes began to glow and a few seconds later Aqua's eyes began to glow.
"Aqua, no!" Hiccup yelled.
Unable to stop herself, Aqua created a bow of water and fired water arrow at Phantom. However, she nearly extended her hand and the arrow ricocheted and headed straight towards Hiccup.
"Now my game becomes yours due to Phantom's effect," said Phantom. "All damage reflects back to you."
The arrow then struck Hiccup hard in the chest.
Hiccup: 2400
Phantom: 3300
"I couldn't help it, but do it," said Aqua looking at him apologetically.
"I know that," said Hiccup weakly.
"You know nothing, Hiccup," Phantom spat. "This is all your fault, because you sent me to another dimension now arranges mine. Due to Zero Sprite's effect we get to attack each other once again."
Hiccup looked up in time to see that Phantom hypnotising Aqua and forcing her to attack yet again. She locked another water arrow, but Phantom merely deflected it with the palm of her hand.
"Here comes the pain," Phantom smirked.
The arrow flew up into the air and struck Hiccup in the shoulder causing him to yell.
Hiccup: 1800
Phantom: 3300
"Now I bring back Sharpshot from my graveyard only to sacrifice them to keep Phantom in play," said Phantom as Sharpshot return to the field only to disappear once again. She then placed two cards facedown on the field. "And then I lay to cards facedown."
Hiccup was still recovering from Phantom's attack.
"I call this a touch of poetic justice don't you think dear Hiccup?" Phantom smirked. "My best friend hurt me and now each move your best friends hurt you. Now answer me this would you think of those who sent you to Valhalla would say if they saw you embracing the power of the Supreme King again? Well, Hiccup?"
'They probably would never forgive me much less understand,' said Hiccup to himself. 'Maybe going about this all wrong.'
Astrid and the others could see that Hiccup was doubting himself much to their horror.
"Hiccup! You can't listen to her!" Astrid called.
"She's right, because you will start doubting yourself and the Supreme King will take over," said Fishlegs as a symbol of doubt appeared on his cheek.
"He's got a point," said Yellow.
Hiccup looked up. "You're right," he said. 'I have to remember my own advice. If I would use the power of the Supreme King I've got to come to grips with what he—what I did. It's my fault my friends were lost, but now I can rescue them. I have to trust in the strength of my deck to right all the wrongs I've caused.'
Hiccup then reached for his deck. "It's my move and I draw," he said as he drew.
"Hiccup, how about a power boost?" Ventus asked.
"Sounds good," Hiccup nodded. "Now then do what you do best."
Ventus then flew into the air and created another calming wind across the field rejuvenating Hiccup's life points.
Hiccup: 2800
Phantom: 3300
"That airhead of yours will pay for that!" Phantom roared. "I can't wait to blow her away permanently!"
"We'll see about that, because I play Dragon Knight Fireworm!" Hiccup yelled.
Suddenly appearing on the field was a young female Dragon Knight in red armour. (ATK: 900/ DEF: 200)
"And thanks to her special ability I'm able to remove one card from your graveyard but turn and I choose Drake Knight Sharpshot," said Hiccup. "Now you your resurrection combo is now destroyed!"
"All right!" Yellow cried. "Say goodbye Phantom there's nothing to sacrifice now!"
"I wouldn't be too sure," said Astrid gravely.
"She's right, I'm sure that card isn't going away that easily," said Fishlegs.
He was right, because Phantom had just revealed one of the facedown cards which was a trap card.
"Hiccup, why do you do this? Why do you try and get rid of me?" she asked spitefully. "Is it all to protect your new friends? You worked so hard to keep them safe, but you won't save them all."
Hiccup turned and saw Fireworm wincing in pain and then vanished on the field. "How?" he stared.
"Before your monster used it special ability, I triggered a trap Zero Hole," she said gesturing to her now reveal trap card. "Thanks to this your monster special abilities is negated and destroyed."
"So you're Phantom is safe, until I play this trap card," said Hiccup and Phantom looked up. It revealed itself to be an image of the Dragon Sanctuary and Dragon Spirit blowing a horn resembling a dragon. "I activate Dragon Spirit Horn! Since you destroyed my monster I get caught out a Dragon Spirit and here rocking the field is Dragon Spirit Terra!"
Suddenly the ground began to shake and emerging from the ground was Hiccup's Dragon Spirit of Earth. (ATK: 800/ DEF: 400)
Phantom immediately narrowed her eyes. "I never one of your friends I take it?"
Terra looked Hiccup. "I'm ready to rumble, Hiccup," he said with a firm grip on his hammer.
"Go wild, now attack!" Hiccup commanded.
Terra then immediately charged towards Phantom with a firm grip on his stone hammer.
"He can't harm her," said Phantom.
"That may be, but when Terra attacks you're Phantom no one takes any damage, but both our monsters get sent back to our hands instead," said Hiccup.
"Not true, there will be plenty of damage once I play the trap card Hate Buster!" Phantom yelled revealing yet another one of the facedown cards. "And with this kiss Terra goodbye because now both our monsters are instantly destroyed."
"Destroyed?" Hiccup stared.
"But here's the catch, damage," Phantom smirked. "You take damage equal to all of those attack points your Dragon Spirit Terra's had."
Hiccup watched as Terra slammed his hammer on top of Phantom and then there was a huge explosion that destroyed the two of them. Hiccup was slammed with the impact and took quite a bit of damage.
Hiccup: 2000
Phantom: 3300
"At least now her Phantom card is destroyed," said Hiccup wincing from the pain. "Thanks for your help pal."
"Think again," said Phantom's voice. "I've evolved!"
The smoke began to clear and to Hiccup's horror a creature bearing some resemblance to Phantom was on the field. The only major differences was that she was now 10 feet tall and have many more dragon-like features especially on her face. (ATK: 0/ DEF: 0)
"Into what? Some new monster?" Hiccup gasped.
"Meet my new body," said Phantom's voice. Phantom then appeared on the new creature's shoulder with a large smile on her face. "So how do you like my new look?"
She then smiled at him curtly. "I bet you're wondering how it happened well let me explain it. Since Phantom was destroyed by Hate Buster's effect she was able to evolve into the beast you see now. And with her the stage is set from the two exact my final revenge. Now say hello to Dragon Knight Shadow! It's time you met your fate!"
"Hold on, what fate?" Hiccup asked.
"You banished me so now it's your turn to be banished!" said Phantom with a sinister smile on her face. "Don't you see it has to end this way. It was I that transported you to these far after mentions and it was either try to reach out to you through Mason! Then your friend Camicazi had to interfere.
"So I took her and made her my minion knowing that you would come looking for her and knowing that your friends would never let you come alone, I was able to use them for payback for all the pain you caused me."
Hiccup's eyes widened in horror.
Phantom smiled. "That's right, I bought them all here hoping that if I made them suffer by the hand of you, their closest friend, you might see the error of your ways and we could finally be reunited. But instead you fight with the hope of sending me away again, but this time I'm not going anywhere. But you are Hiccup, you're about to vanish for all of eternity!"
"Phantom, that is not going to happen not with Rising Dawn on my field," said Hiccup gesturing to his Dragon Spirit of light. "Because with her special ability I can draw one card." He drew it and held it out to revealed itself to be a monster. "And it looks like I drew Dragon Knight Windwalker! But because he is a monster card my Rising Dawn's effect won't let me attack."
Phantom smirked. "So what good is it?"
"You'll see soon enough," said Hiccup as he placed a card facedown on the field. "It's your move."
Yellow looks slightly nervous. "She's not going to wait."
"That's right," said Phantom as she drew.
Immediately the eyes of Shadow began to glow and Aqua was hypnotised to attack yet again.
"Now Aqua let's do some damage!" Phantom cried.
Aqua then fired a water arrow directly at Shadow, but she merely blocked it with her forearm and deflected it.
"And just like before your life points take the hit," said Phantom.
The water arrow then struck Hiccup yet again causing him to wince in pain.
Hiccup: 1400
Phantom: 3300
"And next I summon back Sharpshot and then when it's the end of my turn, shadow destroyed every monster on my field other than herself. And then each monster I lost you lose one as well," she laughed.
Sharpshot then appeared on the field once again.
"And I think I'll start by destroying that pesky Ventus of yours," said Phantom pointing at Ventus.
Suddenly both Sharpshot and Venus began to glow and then vanished from the field.
"Guys, without Ventus Hiccup won't be able to pump of his life points anymore," said Yellow.
"I rather enjoyed that," Phantom smiled sinisterly. "I can't wait to take out the rest. All those that replaced me shall suffer and fall to my power!"
"Not on my watch," said Hiccup defiantly. "You're through, because me and my friends are going to end this."
"Well, try all you want," said Phantom.
"And I will," said Hiccup as he drew and saw that he had drawn Polymerization and his eyes widened. "That card."
"Hiccup, remember we all believe in you," said Aqua.
"Yeah, but…"
"You said it yourself Hiccup, you mustn't be afraid," said Rising Dawn respectfully. "You must be brave and trust yourself if you wish to experience victory. You must believe in yourself or all hope is lost."
"You're right, thanks guys," Hiccup nodded.
The two of them nodded.
"A boy and his spirits, how sweet," said Phantom bitterly. "Now then are we going to duel."
Hiccup then reached for another card in his hand. "You better believe we are Phantom, I sacrifice Aqua to summon Dragon Knight Windwalker in defence mode!"
Aqua then vanished from the field and was replaced with a Dragon Knight with sky blue armour and with a strong set of wings. He then immediately took on a defensive position. (ATK: 2100/ DEF: 1300)
"And then I draw a card," said Hiccup as he drew and held out the card and revealed itself to be Dragon Knight Impostor. "And because I drew the spell card Dragon Knight Impostor Rising Dawn can attacks!"
"With pleasure, Hiccup," said Rising Dawn as she created a spear of light.
She then tossed the spear directly at Phantom striking her in the chest.
Hiccup: 1400
Phantom: 2600
Phantom was really annoyed by this. "Your Rising Dawn is just as pesky as your Ventus was!" she snarled. "And you know what happened to her."
"I'm finished," said Hiccup.
"That's right, Hiccup," said Phantom as she drew. "Because with this turn I'm going to defeat you, you will pay for all the choices you have made and all of your betrayals. Your end is not within Valhalla, your fate lies elsewhere Hiccup. I'm banishing you somewhere much worse, please avoid of cards and friends, someplace where you will be alone for eternity!
"Once I defeat you and sending you far away to a cold dark place where you finally experience first-hand the suffering you caused me, I mean it only fair. And when you're gone out take care of your little friends you left behind and I think I'll go after Astrid, Fishlegs and their yellow friend first."
"No," said Hiccup looking up at her. "You can't!"
"You don't think so?" Phantom smirked. "Because I don't think you can stop me." Hiccup narrowed his eyes. "Let's bring this duel to a close, parting is such sweet sorrow. I should know."
Shadow's eyes then began to glow and Windwalker's eyes were doing the same.
"Now rise Windwalker and let's do battle!" Phantom roared.
"Windwalker!" Hiccup yelled.
Windwalker then got to his feet and jumped straight towards Phantom slamming a fist against.
"Here comes the pain," Windwalker smirked.
Windwalker's attack accomplish nothing, except causing a massive gust of wind which spread across the entire field and struck Hiccup.
Hiccup: 100
Phantom: 2600
"Oh no," Yellow cried. "Hiccup is almost out of his life points."
"It's not over yet," said Astrid.
"Come on," said Fishlegs hopefully.
A split second later Sharpshot appeared on the field yet again.
"Now I destroy Sharpshot to take out your Rising Dawn!" Phantom smirked.
Hiccup watched as Sharpshot was destroyed in a brief second later so was Rising Dawn.
"Rising Dawn!" Hiccup cried. He then glared at Phantom. "I'll get you for that Phantom!"
Phantom merely chuckled. "Try it then."
Yellow began to cry. "Hiccup is done for maybe we should sneak away before where next."
"No way," said Fishlegs firmly. "Because Hiccup is not going to lose, he's going to tap into the power of the Supreme King and use it to take Phantom down. Unless…" The mark of doubt then appeared on his cheek once again. 'The pressure will be so overwhelming that Hiccup can't keep the Supreme King in check and if that happens I don't think will ever make it back to Duel Academy.'
"We can't give up hope just yet," said Astrid as though reading his thoughts. "Hiccup has always bounced back in the worst of situations and this is no different."
"Astrid, you really shouldn't give Fishlegs' false hope," said Phantom. "Believe me when I say that Hiccup is not one you can trust just look what happened to me. He betrayed our friendship and sent me away. Just like he did to your friends."
Hiccup merely smiled. "That was then…"
Phantom smile then vanished. "What?"
"That's right Phantom, I'm a different person now," said Hiccup. "Strong and unafraid to use all my powers against you, got that. So prepare to experience the full extent of my power." He then looked at Astrid. "Thanks for not giving up on me, Astrid."
Astrid smiled at him. "I would be a very poor girlfriend if I didn't."
Hiccup smiled back and looked at Fishlegs. "Fishlegs, I promise I won't let you down."
Phantom merely snarled at him.
Hiccup then began the friends that were no longer with them. 'I can't let anyone down, I'm going to make it up to all of you and get you home safely. Count on it, we're all getting out of here together.'
Phantom was completely furious now.
Hiccup then drew from his deck. "Hey, Camicazi. I'm sorry I got you into this mess, but know that I'm planning on making it up to you… by winning this! Now let's finish what we started!"
Everyone gasped.
"I'm playing the spell, Dragon Knight Impostor!" Hiccup yelled holding out hid spell card. "And now I can summon a Dragon Knight from my hand straight to the field."
Suddenly appearing on the field was Toothless. (ATK: 2500/ DEF: 2200)
"Lucky for you Toothless can't attack and when it's the end of my turn I have to return into my hand," Hiccup explained.
Phantom didn't look impressed. "You know what? It seems the only thing that move accomplished was powering up my Spell Chronicle."
One of the magic shapes on the scrawl then began to glow.
"You forget that my turn is not over," said Hiccup causing Phantom to lose her smirk. "And with Windwalker on the field I'll the card to my graveyard to change him into a fusion material monster."
Hiccup looked through his deck and then discarded Celestial King and a powerful gust of wind began to cover Windwalker from head to toe.
"Now Windwalker, with the power you possess I transform you into Camicazi's most powerful monster! Celestial King!" Hiccup yelled.
Everyone gasped as the wind dispel in their standing right before them was the Celestial King.
"That's not enough to stop me," said Phantom, though she looked as if she was sweating a bit.
"That maybe, but now I play Polymerization!" Hiccup yelled causing the Spell Chronicle magic runes to glow once again. "And I've used Celestial King and Toothless so that I can call upon the mighty Celestial Toothless!"
Both Toothless and Celestial King soon entered into the vortex and a few seconds later and bright light emanated from the vortex blinding everyone.
"Oh no, it can't be!" Phantom gasped.
"This fusion of friendship is going to conquer you once and for all!" Hiccup yelled.
Finally the light began to dim and their standing in front of everyone was toothless in his celestial form towering over everyone. (ATK: 4500/ DEF: 3200)
