Alister's Monsters of Fire (Part 1)
Meanwhile, Alister is off in search for Joey.
"Where are you, Wheeler?" asked Alister. I'll find you! Back in Battle City, Joey, Tea` and Tristin are looking for Yugi when Yugi turns the corner and finds them.
"Yugi!" said Joey. What's going on, pal?
"Yami's soul was taken," said Yugi.
"How did that happen?" asked Tristin.
"Raphael challenged him to a rematch and he lost," said Yugi. Alister finds Joey.
"Aha!" said Alister. I finally found you!
"Who's this guy?" asked Joey.
"Look, the name's Alister and it's time to duel!" said Alister.
"All right then, let's duel!" said Joey.
"I summon Battle Footballer (1000/2100) in Defense Mode," said Alister. Then I set one card face down and end my turn.
"I summon Gearfried the Iron Knight (1800/1600) in Attack Mode," said Joey. Then I activate Release Restraint, which allows me to offer Gearfried as a tribute so I can summon Gearfried the Swordsmaster (2600/2200) in Attack Mode. Gearfried, destroy his Battle Footballer!
"I activate Backfire," said Alister. This card inflicts 500 lifepoints to your lifepoints when you destroy one of my fire monsters. Battle Footballer is destroyed and Joey's lifepoints drop to 3500.
"I set one card face down to end my turn," said Joey.
"I summon Burning Beast (1500/1000) in Attack Mode," said Alister. Then I play the Seal of Oreichalkos, a spell card that will take your soul if you lose.
"I know that," said Joey.
"I'm sure that you also know that it raises my monster's ATK points by 500, right?" asked Alister. Burning Beast's ATK rises to 2000 by the Oreichalkos.
"Yes, now let's get on with this duel," said Joey.
"Very well," said Alister. I set one card face down and end my turn.
"I summon Alligator's Sword (1500/1200) in Attack Mode," said Joey. Now my Swordsmaster, destroy his Burning Beast!
"I activate Ring of Destruction, which destroys one monster on the field and both players subtract the ATK from their lifepoints," said Alister. I destroy Gearfried the Swordsmaster! Gearfried is destroyed and Joey and Alister's lifepoints drop to 1400.
"I place one card face down and end my turn," said Joey.
"I summon Fox Fire (300/200) in Defense Mode," said Alister. Then I set one card face down to end my turn.
"I sacrifice my Alligator's Sword to summon Jinzo (2400/1500) in Attack Mode," said Joey. As long as he's on the field, all Trap Cards can't be activated. That's not all, he also negates the Trap Cards already in play. Jinzo, destroy Fox Fire! Fox Fire is destroyed. I set one card face down and end my turn. Fox Fire returns to Alister's field. How did Fox Fire return to the field, Alister?
"Its special ability allows it to return to my side of the field when it's destroyed as a result of battle," said Alister. It's all over!
