My Maiden's Number
Disclaimers: I don't own Yugioh Zexal. But if I did, there would be a lot of Skyshipping and Kotori would be dueling in an episode, and blah blah blah.
Chapter 4:The Xyz Empresses
Kotori then raised her hand above her head as the new Xyz monster rose from the red portal.
"Yuma, meet Maiden in Eternal Love!"
Maiden in Eternal Love, Xyz, Rank 2, LIGHT, Spellcaster:
ATK: 900
DEF: 900
"Maiden in Love" + 1 Level 2 Monster
This card's name is treated as "Maiden in Love" while it is face-up on the field. While this card is in face-up Attack Position, it cannot be destroyed. Put a Maiden Counter on a monster that attacks this card. If you attack a monster with this card, put a Maiden Counter on the attack target. You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to reduce all damage that you take in one battle to 100. If this card successfully destroys a monster in battle, it becomes an Xyz Material to this card.
Kotori then smirked at the monster she summoned.
"And that shall end my turn from here Yuma."
Hand: 3
Turn 6, Yuma:
"I draw!"
Yuma then looked through his hand and Astral looked through it as well for a suggestion.
"Hmm…perhaps we should set up a defense to protect ourselves, providing that Xyz monster we haven't seen before could possibly distribute these Maiden Counters."
"Geh, I know what to do Astral! I set one monster in facedown defense mode!"
A facedown defense position monster then materialized onto the field.
"Next, I shall place 2 cards facedown! That's all!"
Hand: 4
Turn 7, Kotori:
"I draw again then! And I'll summon a monster known as Watapon!"
A small white puffball with blue eyes and small antennae with a face that would make any girl (I'm talking to you Animecartoonlover36 XD) squeal with joy, rose up onto the field.
Watapon, Level 1, LIGHT, Fairy:
ATK: 200
DEF: 300
If this card is added to your hand from your Deck by the effect of a Spell, Trap or Monster Card, you can Special Summon this card on your side of the field.
Kotori then pulled another card out of her hand.
"Next I play a card known as Hand Destruction! First, we both send 2 of our own cards from our hands to the graveyard, then draw two new ones right after!"
Yuma then looked through his hand smirking, as he sent Overlay Eater and Tasuke Knight to the graveyard. For Kotori, she was smirking unnoticeably as she sent two cards known as Empress Roll and Level Collapse to the graveyard.
"Now, we both draw two cards!"
As they both drew their two cards, two more of the white puffballs then appeared on Kotori's field.
"What? More?"
"Watapon can be special summoned if I drew it with a card effect. Luckily, I drew the two of them!"
Watapon x 2, Level 1, LIGHT, Fairy:
ATK: 200
DEF: 300
Astral was then shocked by her field.
"Her field might have been filled with monsters, but she once again has the required materials for another Xyz summoning!"
Kotori then smirked, for the umpteenth billionth time in this fic.
"I Overlay my 3 Level 1 Watapons!"
They all turned into 3 glowing yellow balls of light, all falling into a red portal.
"How did she get so skilled? This is her third Xyz Summon!"
"After constructing the Overlay Network, I can summon this little cutie! Meet…Diamond Cupid!"
A small fairy monster similar to the Cupid Kiss art floated out of the red portal, holding an arrow with a diamond as the head of the arrow, twirling it around like a baton before putting it in a bow made of diamonds.
Diamond Cupid, Xyz, Rank 1, LIGHT, Fairy:
ATK: 500
DEF: 500
3 Level 1 Monsters
When this card is Xyz summoned, you can draw one card. You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to place a "Maiden Counter" on a monster on the field.
Kotori drew another card, getting excited at her next move.
"Next, I activate Royal Bachelorette's effect! By removing an Overlay Unit, I can force one of your monsters to change positions, and if it switches into attack mode, it is forced to attack one monster I control!"
Royal Bachelorette then absorbed the Overlay Unit through the rose jewel at the hilt, causing prickly vines to shoot out from the sword, flipping the monster face-up.
"Gogogo Golem! No!"
The solid rock golem then moved towards Maiden in Eternal Love, attacking it.
"I activate Maiden in Eternal Love's effect! I remove an Overlay Unit to reduce all my battle damage to 100!"
Maiden in Eternal Love then slashed one of her Overlay Units, shooting the shockwave back Kotori's life points.
Kotori: 3900 – 100 = 3800
Maiden in Eternal Love: 1 Overlay Unit
Gogogo Golem: 1 MC
"Now, I activate Diamond Cupid's effect! I remove all 3 of its Overlay Units, to place 3 Overlay Units on Gogogo Golem!"
Diamond Cupid then pulled his bow back, holding 3 diamond head arrows, shooting them all at Gogogo Golem.
"Aw geez…"
The arrows then hit the Golem in the chest, causing 3 more hearts to bloom on the rock monster's chest.
"Time for another Spell card Yuma! I play Over the Top Xyz!"
"How many Spell Cards does she have?"
Over the Top Xyz, Normal Spell Card:
Select one Xyz monster in your Extra Deck. Special Summon the selected monster and attach this card as an Xyz material. This is treated as an Xyz Summon. If this card is sent to the graveyard by the Xyz Monster's effect, you take damage equal to half of the Xyz monster's ATK, and then reduce the Xyz monster's ATK and DEF to 0.
"So, with this card's effect, I special summon this card! Say hello to Loving Temptress!"
A woman with green hair, brown featherlike wings, wearing a red body suit, which showed every aspect of it's curvy body, red high heeled boots, and a necklace in the shape of a T then leaped onto the field through a red portal, posing with a blow kiss while a single purple overlay unit circled it.
Loving Temptress, Xyz, Rank 4, DARK, Spellcaster:
ATK: 1000
DEF: 2300
2 Level Four Monsters
Once per turn, you can detach 1 Xyz material from this card. Select one monster with 4 or more Maiden Counters. Take control of that monster.
"First, Loving Temptress has her effect activated! I use her only Overlay Unit, and take control of 1 monster with 4 or more Maiden Counters!"
The only yellow Overlay Unit that was available on Loving Temptress then was absorbed into the heart scepter, casting a suggestive look at Gogogo Golem, causing it to move to Kotori's field.
"Second, since I sent 'Over the Top Xyz' to the graveyard from the effect of using it with an Overlay unit, I lose half of Loving Temptress's ATK, so that's 500 Life points."
Kotori: 3800 – 500 = 3300
"Third, Loving Temptress loses all of her ATK and DEF."
Loving Temptress:
ATK: 1000 – 1000 = 0
DEF: 2300 – 2300 = 0
"And since I sent the card 'Level Collapse' to the graveyard I can activate its effect in my graveyard. For if it is sent to the graveyard, and I have 2 Xyz monsters with no Overlay Units, I can Tribute both of those monsters, and summon a monster with a level equal to the total ranks of the tributed monsters!"
As Loving Temptress and Diamond Cupid disappeared from the field, a monster with a pink and black bodysuit, along with a pink and black heeled boots, a set of two yellow antennae and a gray 'X' and tail made of wire came out in electricity smirking evilly.
Empress Roll, Level 5, LIGHT, Warrior:
ATK: 2050
DEF: 1500
If there are two Empress Roll cards face up on the field, select one of them. The selected "Empress Roll" is treated as a DARK Attribute monster instead of a LIGHT Monster. If there are three face-up "Empress Roll" cards on the field, select two of them. One is treated as a DARK attribute monster while the other is treated as an attribute of your choice except LIGHT or DARK. If you special summon this card, you can special summon 1 "Empress Roll" from your graveyard only it was sent from your hand to the graveyard. Once per turn, you can change the Level of this card of this card by paying 1000 Life Points. If this effect was activated, it cannot be used for a Synchro Material Monster. This card cannot attack the turn it was special summoned.
Kotori then smirked again, with confidence.
"This is too perfect! I can now special summon the other Empress Roll in my graveyard!"
The same monster then appeared on the field, however in a purple bodysuit instead.
Empress Roll, Level 5, DARK(due to effect of first Empress Roll), Warrior:
ATK: 2050
DEF: 1500
Yuma then smirked.
"Let's go! Trap card activate!"
A trap card then flipped up, suddenly going to Yuma's Turn.
Hand: 0
Turn 8, Yuma:
"What is this?"
"The trap card is called Gogogo Vile. Where if there's a Gogogo monster on the field, regardless of the controller, and you special summoned any 2 or more Level 4 monsters, I can end your turn! However, you also get a free card."
Kotori smirked at Yuma as she took a card from her deck.
"Impressive, good move Yuma."
Yuma then put a hand on his deck.
"Alright, I draw!"
As he drew his card in the over the top fashion, he had a lot of confidence in his next move.
"I'm summoning this guy! Let's go Zubaba Blader!"
This monster was in gold armor, had two steel blades on its arms, and was on a pair of ice skates, if that's what they could be described as, and was on a pair of ice skates, swiftly moving on the spot like he was skating.
Zubaba Blader, Level 4, EARTH, Warrior:
ATK: 2100
DEF: 0
This card cannot Attack a monster with less than 2000 ATK points. If this card destroys a Level 5 or higher monster in battle, special summon 1 Level 4 or lower monster from your phase and end the battle phase. This card then switches into defense position and cannot switches into battle positions after this effect has activated.
"Alright, let's do this! Go Zubaba Blader! Attack one of her Roll's with Zubaba Blade Rush!"
The gold monster then skated down the field, slashing the purple empress with one of the arm blades, making Kotori look at her situation unfazed.
"Well, it is only 50 life points lost."
Kotori: 3300 – 50 = 3250
"Ah yeah, now I'm definitely gonna Kattobingu! I can special summon a new monster with Zubaba Blader's effect! So come on out Ganbara Knight!"
A small red knight with two green shields fell from the sky, shouting "Ganbaaaaaaaraaaaaa!".
Ganbara Knight, Level 4, LIGHT, Warrior:
ATK: 0
DEF: 1800
When this face-up Attack Position card is targeted for an attack: You can change it to Defense Position.
Yuma smirked as he raised his arm into the air.
"Now, I'm overlaying Level Fours Ganbara Knight and Zubaba Blader!"
As the two monsters turned into the air, showing a galaxy portal in front of him.
"Now, I construct the Overlay Network! Kattobingu daze, ore! Appear, Number 39, Utopia!"
The number "39" formed and flashed in red, and Utopia's sealed form arose from another dark cloud. The gold and silver wings folded out and extended while the main body formed. The Warrior Number brandished his sword before docking it, and let out a cry of "UTOPIA!" with its yellow Overlay Units circling it.
Number 39: Utopia, Rank 4, LIGHT, Warrior:
ATK: 2500
DEF: 2000
2 Level 4 monsters
When any player's monster declares an attack: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; negate the attack. When this card is targeted for an attack, while it has no Xyz Materials: Destroy this card.
"Finally, I place one card facedown to end my turn!"
Hand: 2
Turn 9, Kotori:
"So, summoning Utopia out here against me hmm? Well, then I draw!"
As Kotori drew her next card, she calmly smiled.
"I shall place two cards facedown. That will be all."
Hand: 0
Turn 10, Yuma:
"Alright! Now it's my turn! And I attack with Utopia!"
Astral then looked at Yuma with shock.
"Wait Yuma! She still has Overlay Units!"
"I attack Gogogo Golem! Let's go, Rising Sun Slash!"
Kotori then smirked.
"I activate the trap card, Xyz Magnet! This forces an Xyz Monster to attack another Xyz Monster that I control!"
Yuma then reeled back in shock.
"Oh no! That means, Utopia is vulnerable to-"
"I switch the attack target to Royal Bachelorette!"
"Wait, what?"
The sword then slashed through the female monster, destroying it, however Kotori just looked unfazed.
"Now, Maiden in Eternal Love uses her effect!"
The Maiden slashed her last Overlay Unit, sending a small shockwave towards the spinning sword, sending it back towards Utopia while the wave was sent back towards Kotori's life points.
Kotori: 3250 – 100 = 3150
Maiden in Eternal Love: 0 Overlay Units
"And since you destroyed Royal Bachelorette, my second trap card is activated!"
The card revealed itself, showing an image of Maiden in Love, holding am Xyz rank star object in her hand.
"It's called Xyz Maiden! And with it, I can distribute Maiden Counters equal to a destroyed monsters rank!"
Soon, the black stars that belonged to Royal Bachelorette then turned into three hearts, attaching themselves to Utopia's heart.
Utopia: 3 MC
"Alright, if that's what's going to happen Kotori, I play a card known as The Proposal!"
The Proposal, Normal Spell:
Your opponent chooses and applies one of the following effects:
- Your opponent discards one spell and monster card, and draw one card. Gain 500 Life Points.
- You draw 3 cards and lose 1000 life points.
"Now, you select one of the following, either I get rid of a spell and monster card to get a free 500 life points and card, or you get to draw 3 cards at the price of losing 1000 life points!"
"Really? Well, I choose the effect where I draw 3 cards!"
As Kotori got 3 cards, she cringed at the loss of Life Points.
Kotori: 3150 – 1000 = 2150
Yuma smirked at the stats.
"Now, we're both 550 points away from equal!"
Astral just sighed.
"Yuma, you still had Overlay Eater in your graveyard. You could have taken the-"
Yuma just facepalmed himself.
"Agh…that's right! I could have taken Overlay Units from Royal Bachelorette or Maiden in Eternal Love!"
Astral looked through his hand.
"It doesn't matter now, you have already made the moves. Just place the left card in your hand facedown."
"But why?"
Astral looked at him in seriousness.
"Do it."
Yuma nodded, taking one of his cards his hand.
"I place 1 more card facedown to end my turn!"
Hand: 1
Turn 11, Kotori:
"I draw!"
Kotori then smirked at the sight her card.
"I play, my Second Cupid Kiss! I am going to-"
Yuma then smirked.
"I don't think so! Here comes my Trap Card, Magic Jammer! I can activate this card by discarding one of my own cards, to negate the effects of your spell card!"
A cursed pentagram then came across the field, then came across the field, shocking the Equip Spell, and destroying it.
Yuma's Hand: 0
Kotori growled, which was unnoticeable to both of them.
"I activate Empress Roll's effect!"
Kotori's number '13' then started glowing a little darker.
"By paying 1000 life points, I can change the level of Empress!"
Kotori: 2150 – 1000 = 1150
Empress Roll: Level 5 = Level 4
"I now Overlay Gogogo Golem and Empress Roll!"
Gogogo Golem then turned into an orange light, while Empress Roll turned into a yellow light, causing a galaxy portal to open.
"What?"
"But that's impossible!"
"I construct the Overlay Network, in order to Xyz summon my Number 13!"
The number "13" formed and flashed in blue, and within a dark area, a shining object rose. It was shaped similar to that of a magician's staff, but the construction of it resembled Utopia: it was colored dark silver with light amethyst colored accents to it. An odd instrument similar to Utopia's wings covered it, but a metallic white sheet coiled around it. Then, the instrument folded out to become a cape-like object. The white sheet uncoiled itself, but remained attached as the object began to change shape. Compartments changed and shifted around it. The middle area of the form shifted into a female-fitting cloak-like design with an open area on the chest, the cape attaching to the back. Individual pieces broke off and changed to look like boots, knee attachments, arm gauntlets, and elbow attachments. The shape with the white sheet attached to it formed with a shape that curved downward on both sides twice, one side inward, one side outward, and the sheet split into numerous strips resembling long hair. All of the form shone with the dark silver and light amethyst colors, the entire design resembling that of Utopia. Then, like magic, a female form began to fill in the empty space in the armor, donning the armaments, the cloak stopping just above the knees. The area over the eyes opened, revealing hazel-colored eyes with long lashes. A staff formed in her left hand as a blue 13 glowed on her right shoulder. The new monster spun her staff around before letting out a cry of "HEY-YAH!" and taking a battle stance, her staff to her left and her yellow Overlay Units circling her.
"Oh man…"
Number 13: Paradise, Xyz, Rank 4, LIGHT, Spellcaster
ATK: 2400
DEF: 1600
2 Level 4 monsters
When the effect of a face-up "Number 39: Utopia" on your side of the field activates: you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card instead. If a face-up "Number 39: Utopia" you control has no Xyz Materials: you can equip this card to that monster as an Equip Card. If this card has any Xyz Materials when you activate this effect: attach those Xyz Materials to the equipped monster. While the equipped monster is equipped with this card: its effects are negated, it cannot be destroyed by battle, and its control cannot switch.
Kotori then looked at her hand.
"Alright, the last card I need to play is this one, Luminous Xyz."
She then started reaching for the card, but hesitated.
"Wait, Love Vision, it also would, no, I-"
"What are you doing?"
Kotori then started to put a hand on her heart, as she heard the low female voice from chapter one enter her mind.
"I can't decide…I want to win, but I also want to show him what I really want from him…"
"Tch, Kotori, just play the spell! That's all you need to win!"
Suddenly, a third voice entered her mind, however, at the same pitch, but had a different way of how the voice sounded from the first time she heard it.
"She wants him now…look at your hand."
Kotori then looked at the body part, shock clearly written on her face.
"What the-"
The Number "13" was slowly getting dimmer, along with the mysterious voice then entering her mind again, however a little more darker than the first time it entered.
"I was born from the depression and sadness that has been straining and building inside your heart! It was growing as darkness, causing me to be born!"
A dark aura then overtook her, causing her to struggle internally.
"I must, I can, and I refuse? No, I WILL! I, am, perfect!"
She then screamed at the top of her lungs, having a full dark aura around her, along with grabbing hold of a card in her hand and activating it.
"I activate Love Vision!"
Yuma then was in more shock than ever.
"Love Vision, what is that?"
Suddenly, everything was covered in pink light, causing a heart to shoot out and hit Yuma quare in the face, where he had closed his eyes, for it was very bright, and it 'teleported' him somewhere in the AR.
"Ugh, where am I?"
When Yuma came to, he was looking around, just to find himself in pink light, and a white tuxedo.
"And, what is this?"
As the pink light settled down, all that was seen was where the opening ceremonies of the WDC took place, however set to find the mood of a dance, and everyone was slow dancing.
"Yuma, do you…wanna dance?"
Yuma then took a look at who was in front of him, seeing Kotori with her hair down and without her ribbon, along with wearing a green couture dress.
"Sure, I guess?"
As he took her hand, they started moving in such a rhythmic pattern, as if it was meant to happen and move in those directions and movements.
"I don't know how I'm doing this…"
Kotori then started moving her face towards his, uttering words as she got closer to him.
"Katto…"
They touched lips, oh so softly, Yuma somehow knowing how to end it with his sidew of the kiss while saying:
"bingu…"
