Wow…people are beginning to like my story, except for the people that first read my story. Some of them already fell in love with it, . Well. Chapter 21 is up. Review please.

Chapter 21: Battle: Bakura VS. Sigma II

Bakura just stood their sweating. Sigma already played two strong monsters in one turn by paying only 1000 Life Points for each of them. What did he have? A Morphing Jar in facedown position. Sigma just looked at Bakura smiling. There was no way that Bakura can get rid of his two Aeon's.

Sigma: Well, well, well. I have two strong monsters on my side of the field. Your lucky they can't attack when I paid 2000 Life Points for them to be summoned on the field. So only my Aeon master can attack. Go Aeon! Attack with your Blue Blaster!

Aeon Master raised his staff up in the air and faced the tip at Bakura. The Blue Sphere started to glow. It then gave out a beam and hit Bakura. Bakura gave out moan of pain and kneeled on the ground.

Bakura: 6100

Bakura: How did you attack my Life Points directly? I had a monster on my side of the field! No way you could've…unless a special ability!

Sigma: Correct! Aeon Master can attack my opponents Life Points directly as long I have two other monsters that have the name "Aeon" in it. Guess that's it. Make your move thief.

Bakura: It will be my pleasure…

Bakura drew his next card and it was Mystical Space Typhoon-Magic Card. Bakura smiled in delight. He can get rid of that facedown card of Sigma's. Bad news, it could a worthless card and he wants him to waste it on his facedown card. Bakura just held on to his Mystical Space Typhoon.

Bakura: I set two cards facedown and set a monster in facedown mode. Then I flip my monster face-up! Reveal Morphing Jar! When this card is flipped face-up from facedown position, we get rid of our hands. Then we replace them with 5 new cards.

A card was flipped face-up and showed a hologram of monster in a jar with one eye smiling at Sigma. It came out and charged at Sigma. Just then, Shiva made an ice barrier protecting Sigma and by the time Morphing Jar hit the wall, it disappeared. Bakura gave out an expression and was clenching his hands.

Bakura: What happen! Why didn't my Morphing Jar hit you and why did your Shiva created an ice wall to protect you!

Sigma: My Shiva has a special ability. When you activate your monsters special ability that is targeting me, I can negate it. For instance, you flipped your Morphing Jar from facedown defense to face-up attack correct? Making it activate its flip effect. When Morphing Jar is flipped, it means both players must discard their entire hand to the card graveyard and drawing 5 new cards from our deck. Since I have Shiva, on my side of the field, I can make her create an ice barrier to protect me from the effect of Morphing Jar making me, untouched. So I don't have to discard my hand. On the other hand for you, you have to discard your entire hand.

Bakura was filled with anger. He discarded his three remaining cards, which were: Dark Ruler, Dark Necrofear, and Headless Knight, to the card graveyard. He then drew five new cards.

Bakura's New Hand:

Dead Dragon Zoma-Trap Card

Revival Ouiju-Trap Card

Change of Heart-Magic Card

Necro Mannequin-Level: 3 Atk/500 Def/500 (Dark/Zombie)

Necri Cycle-Trap Card

Bakura stared at his hand. It was good, but it wasn't good enough. He needed something to help him win this duel. He sighed began to speak.

Bakura: Well this is a good start. I set three cards facedown and-

Sigma: I don't think so! Activate trap card, Dust Tornado! But this is bad. I should've activated this when you first play your facedown card. Now I'm going to have some trouble, but oh well. I'm still going to win no matter what you do. I destroy your fourth facedown card in your magic/trap zone.

A huge Dust tornado was formed and blew away Bakura's facedown Necri Cycle. The storm went away and Bakura saw Simga smiling at him.

Bakura: What are you smiling at freak?

Sigma: I'm smiling at you. Seeing you suffer by my hands. To tell you the truth, I could've taken down the pharaoh if Master Aeru didn't give me an order to lose on purpose.

Bakura: You lie!

Sigma: Really. I could've taken the pharaoh with my Aeon cards in…you could say…less than 20 turns.

Bakura: Then you must be really strong. NOT! No one can beat the pharaoh, but me! You are filled with too much confidence. Never underestimate the pharaoh.

Sigma: Whatever. You are not even friends with that little spiky freak.

Bakura: Can we get back to the duel now? I'm bored listing to you. I play my monster Necro Mannequin in defense mode!

A huge freaky monster appeared in defense mode. Its head was at the bottom and it had four arms, and two legs at the top. You could say it was standing upside down. Sigma raised his right eyebrow staring at the weak monster.

Necro Mannequin-Atk/500 Def/500

Bakura: Lets see what you can do. I end my turn.

Sigma: You do realize that your Morphing Jar is in attack mode right and that your monster is weak? You are going to so lose this duel. My move!

Sigma drew a card from the top of his deck and looked at it. It was Anima-Aeon of the Demons-Level: 8 Atk/3000 Def/3000 (Dark/Fiend/Effect). Sigma smiled and looked at Bakura. Sigma just drew his most powerful Aeon card in his deck, nearly as powerful to Odin. Bad news, Anima was so powerful that Aeon Master had a special ability. Aeon Master can play any monster that has the name "Aeon" in it or Odin, but in order to summon Odin, Sigma has to play half of his Life Points in order to summon it. And for Anima, he needed to play 1000 of his Life Points and give up two monsters that have the name "Aeon" in it and with Aeon Master. Pay 1000 of his life points and sacrifice two Aeons with Aeon Master in order to play Anima. Sigma just put it in his hand and was going to wait for a while when the time is right to play Anima

Sigma: Your lucky for now thief. I have a powerful monster in my hand, but it's too risky to play it.

Bakura: Why? Because your scared of my weak worthless monsters Sigma?

Sigma: Don't push your luck thief. You are not forcing me to play my monster.

Bakura: Whatever you say, hahahaha.

Sigma: …What are you saying?

Bakura: That you're scared of just two little weak monsters and that you're Aeon doesn't stand a chance.

Sigma: Tech. In your dreams! If you want to feel power, then so be it! Come forth! Anima! Aeon of all demons!

Sigma raised his Aeon card up in that air and a huge storm was made. Winds were coming out of nowhere and Bakura was being blown away. Sigma gave out a dark laugh and sent his three Aeons to the graveyard. Aeon Master, Shiva, and Yojimbo disappeared and went up in the air. Then there was thunder and lighting all of a sudden. The lighting hit the middle of the field and Bakura had to cover his eyes and so did Sigma.

:Meanwhile:

Everyone in the hospital looked out the window. Yugi, Joey, Seto, Mokuba, and Michelle all looked outside. A storm was coming, but Yugi had a feeling this wasn't your everyday normal storm. This storm…was different somehow.

"Wonder wha's going on," asked Joey.

"A storm you idiot," said Seto looking at the window not looking at Joey. Joey glared at Seto and looked back at the storm.

"Strange," said Michelle, "News said this was going to be a perfect weather tonight…"

"Well never believe ta news," said Joey facing Michelle, "News lies. Say sumthin, and all of a sudden, things change ya?"

Yugi remained silent and watched at the storm…something was wrong, very wrong.

:Meanwhile (again):

Tristan gave up. No one was coming to his rescue. His hand was stuck and no one was coming to save him. Then Tristan saw another vending machine. This time, it was a machine that had snacks. Tristan looked at it in amazement. He licked the top of his lip and tried to reach for a snack inside by sticking his hand inside to a get a free one. Lucky it was next to him instead on the other side. No luck again. Tristan sighed and began to take his hand. Bad news…his hand wouldn't come out. Tristan couldn't believe he fell for it for the second time. His left hand was stuck in the soda machine and his right hand in the snack machine. Tristan yelled with all his might for help hoping someone will come and save him.

:Back to the duel:

A huge dark pool appeared on the field. Then, an anchor appeared from the sky and hit the dark pool. It then rose up raising a huge demon. The demon was in chains and had its arms crossed and chained as well. When the demon was half way out of the pool, the anchor released the demon and the anchor disappeared. The demon had huge red eyes, it was but just a huge shadow demon, it had wings, but it too was chained. It then gave out a mighty roar and Bakura was going to pay the price. Bakura stared at the huge demon and the shadow demon looked back at him. Sigma laughed and laughed. He was having so much fun torturing Bakura.

Sigma: I see that you are impressed seeing my mighty creature thief. To bad you won't survive from this attack! Because my all-powerful demon has a strong ability that will blow you away! Blow you away! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Bakura: Shoots! Now…I'm in trouble…

Bakura's LP: 6100

Sigma's LP: 3000

Anima-Aeon of Demons-Atk/3000 Def/3000
