"What do you think that card can do?" Joey asked.
"If I had to guess, something bad for Yugi." Ulrich said.

"I play my Megatank's special ability, it can destroy one monster on the field, and I inflict 200 points of damage times it's level, and I destroy Valkyrion." Aelita said.
"Alright, but the duel is far from over." Yugi said.
"Ok, I end my move with one facedown card." Aelita said.
Aelita 4000 Yugi 2400: "My move, and I start by summoning my Celtic Guardian in attack mode, and next I set this facedown." Yugi said. "Now I attack your Megatank with Celtic Guardian."
"I use the other effect of my Megatank, he can't be destroyed in battle once a turn, and all damage is negated, the catch is for every 500 points I would have taken, he loses 400 defense points." Aelita said.
"Alright, in that case I end my turn." Yugi said.
"My draw, I use my Megatank to destroy Celtic Guardian."Aelita said.
"Alright, that's fine." Yugi said calmly.
"You only have 1600 points left, am I really that skilled?"Aelita asked.
"This duel is just getting started." Yugi said.
"Ok, I end my turn with one facedown card." Aelita said.

"Oh man, Yugi is getting beat badly, Aelita has to have dueled before." Joey said.
"No, she's barely played, I think her cards are the trick." Jeremy said. "In fact, I have a feeling this is just getting started."
"Whichever one of these fools wins, my Winged Dragon of Ra will destroy them." Marik said before laughing crazily.
"Whatever, you're going down Marik." Tea said.

Aelita 4000 Yugi 1600: "My move, I start by playing Monster Reborn, now I bring back Valkyrion the Magna Warrior in attack mode, and next I summon King's Knight, and now I attack your Megatank with King's Knight, and now that his immunity is used up, I attack with Valkyrion the Magna Warrior." Yugi said as the Megatank exploded.
"That's not good." Aelita said nervously.
"I end my turn with that, so you can go Aelita." Yugi said.
Aelita 500 Yugi 1600: "My move, I reveal my facedown spell card, Hidden Monsters, now I add one counter to this card over the next two turns, and then I can play one of my best cards, so I end my move with one more card, Ambush, this let's me summon two monsters in defense mode during your next battle phase." Aelita said. Ok, this duel depends on how long I can last, she thought.
"My turn, and I draw, now I summon Queen's Knight, and since I have King's Knight and Queen's Knight, I can summon Jack's Knight, now I enter the battle phase, so you can summon your monsters Aelita." Yugi said.
"Ok, I summon one Hornet, and one Blok. Both in defense mode." Aelita said.
"Ok, I attack the Blok with Jack's Knight, and the Hornet with King's Knight." Yugi said when suddenly three more Hornets appeared.
"When it gets destroyed, my Hornet summons three Hornet Tokens in defense mode, although they have no defense points." Aelita said.
"Alright, Valkyrion and Queen's Knight, attack two of the tokens." Yugi said.

"This is intense, Aelita has almost no chance of winning, Yugi can play Slifer next turn." Joey said.
"True, but Aelita is almost able to play a powerful card of her own, the only question is which one." Jeremy said.
"I could tell you, she played this card earlier, and it was quite the powerful card." Marik said.
"Well, as much as I hate to admit it, she's probably going to lose." Odd said. "If that Obelisk guy was any clue, Yugi's Dragon is going to be way to powerful."
"Let's just watch Odd." Yumi said.

"I end my turn, so go ahead Aelita." Yugi said politely.
"Right, my move, and I add the first counter to my spell card, next I set one monster in defense mode, and end my turn." Aelita said.
"Alright, in that case, I draw." Yugi said before lightning bolt Struck behind him. "Aelita, I need to ensure that I stop Marik, so I have no choice, I sacrifice my three knights in order to summon Slifer the Sky Dragon."
"That's a big monster." Aelita said. "How strong is it?"
"Slifer gains 1000 attack points for every card in my hand, so with three cards, he has 3000 attack points." Yugi said. "Now I attack your last token with Valkyrion and your facedown monster with Slifer."
"This is not good." Aelita said as her last defense was destroyed.
"I end my move, but Aelita, next round Slifer will have 4000 attack points." Yugi said.
"Alright, my move, and I add the second counter to my spell card, now I can send it to the graveyard in order to summon the Scyphozoa." Aelita said as the creature appeared on the field.
"Whenever a monster is summoned before Slifer, he reduces its strength by 2000 points, and if it reaches zero, the monster is destroyed." Yugi said.
"Activate trap card, Sacrificial Monster, now I can send a monster from my deck to the graveyard, and in doing so I save my Scyphozoa." Aelita said as she sent Dark William to the graveyard. "Now I use the effect of my Scyphozoa, I pay half my life points to take control of your Valkyrion and increase its attack points by the difference in our life points, so it has 4950 attack points."
"Slifer only has 3000 attack points, and I have no cards on the field that could increase his attack power, you win Aelita." Yugi said as his god card was destroyed.
"The winner of this duel is Aelita Stones." Roland announced. "The final duel will begin in 15 minutes, so until then both duelists should prepare their decks."
"Aelita, take this." Yugi said before giving Aelita Slifer the Sky Dragon. "This card will help you in the final duel."
"Thanks, I have a feeling this is going to be important."Aelita said.
(Aelita managed to defeat Yugi, and now the only duel left is Aelita vs Marik. Next chapter the final duel will begin and the Shadow Realm will meet Lyoko. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
(Author's Note: Aelita beat Yugi, however she is not a better duelist, she simply has a natural connection to Lyoko and so the cards respond to what she needs, essentially a Heart of the Cards, only it connects to her in a stronger way, if anyone else used her deck, it would not work for anyone else, even if Yugi used the Heart of the Cards.)
