"Let's get this battle started!" said Roland.
"Game on!" said Sunset and Yugi.
Yugi LP: 8000
Sunset LP: 8000
"Who should go first?" asked Sunset.
"Ladies first," said Yugi.
"No thanks," said Sunset. "You go ahead."
Turn 1: Yugi
"Okay," said Yugi. "I summon Marshmacaron in defense mode! I then place a face down and end my turn."
Turn 2: Sunset
"I'm up then," said Sunset. "I play Shard of Greed. Now, during every one of my turns, this card will gain a greed counter. When it has two or more, I can send it to the grave and draw two cards. Next I summon Jurrac Monoloph! Attack his Marshmacaron!
"Just so you know," said Yugi. "When my Marshmacaron is destroyed, I can bring out two more from my deck."
"Well guess what?" asked Sunset. "My Jurrac can attack every monster on your field!"
"Say what?" asked Yugi as his monsters were destroyed.
"I end my turn with one face down," said Sunset.
Turn 3: Yugi
"My turn!" said Yugi. "I summon Sentry Soldier of Stone in defense mode. Then I'll place one card face down and end my turn."
Turn 4: Sunset
"My turn," said Sunset. (Greed counters: 1) "I play the Ritual spell, End of the World! By tributing my Jurrac and the Kabuki Dragon in my hand, I can Ritual summon Ruin, Queen of Oblivion! Now attack his Sentry! Oh, and one more thing, if she destroys a monster, she can attack again."
"What?!" gasped Yugi.
"Attack!" ordered Sunset. "But not before I do, I'll activate Pyramid Energy! This gives my Queen 200 extra ATK points until the end of the turn." (Ruin, Queen of Oblivion ATK: 2300 – 2500)
Yugi LP: 5500
Sunset LP: 8000
"I activate my traps!" said Yugi. "Dig of Destiny and Dark Horizon! Since I took damage, I can draw a card! And thanks to my Dark Horizon, I can special summon a Dark Spellcaster monster from my deck that has ATK power equal to or less than the damage I just lost. And since I lost 2500, I'll special summon my Dark Magician!"
"Oh great," said Sunset. "That's his signature card. I better be careful. I end my turn." (Ruin, Queen of Oblivion ATK: 2500 – 2300)
Turn 5: Yugi
"My turn!" said Yugi. "I play Thousand Knives. Since my favorite magician is on the field, I can destroy one of your monsters!"
"No!" said Sunset.
"Dark Magic Attack!" said Yugi.
"Ah!" cried Sunset.
Yugi LP: 5500
Sunset LP: 5500
"I place three cards face down," said Yugi. "You're up."
Turn 6: Sunset
"Got it," said Sunset. (Greed counters: 2) "Now I can draw two cards. Next, I play Monster Reborn to bring back my Queen! Then I'll play Back-Up Rider, to give my Queen 1500 an extra ATK points." (Ruin, Queen of Oblivion ATK: 2300 – 3800) "Attack his mage!"
"I activate my trap, Dimension Sphinx!" said Yugi. "This lets me select a monster on my side, so I choose my magician! Now, whenever he's attacked by a monster with higher AK points, you will take damage to your life points equal to the difference in our monster's ATK power!"
"Nice card," said Sunset.
"Thanks," said Yugi. "Now I play another trap, Dimension Guardian! This prevents my magician from being destroyed by battle and card effects!"
"What?!" asked Sunset.
"And I have one more," said Yugi. "I activate Dimension Mirage! Now, if your Queen doesn't destroy my Mage, I can banish another monster from my graveyard, and force your Queen to attack again."
"But…" said Sunset. "With those other two traps, you'll reduce me to zero!"
"That's right," said Yugi.
"Too bad it won't work," said Sunset.
"Huh?" asked Yugi.
"I activate my own trap, Fairy Wind!" said Sunset. "Now, all face up spell and trap cards are destroyed, and we both take 300 points of damage for each one. And since you have three traps, we take 900 points."
Yugi LP: 4600
Sunset LP: 4600
"Dang!" said Yugi.
"And my attack still goes through," reminded Sunset. "So say goodbye to your favorite monster."
"Crud!" said Yugi.
Yugi LP: 3300
Sunset LP: 4600
"I end my turn," said Sunset. (Ruin, Queen of Oblivion ATK: 3800 – 2300)
Turn 7: Yugi
"It's my draw!" said Yugi. "Since you have a monster and I don't, I can special summon Lord Gaia the Fierce Knight! But both of our monsters would be destroyed, I'll just end my turn with a face down."
Turn 8: Sunset
"Then I draw," said Sunset. "I bet that face down is a trap. So I'll lay one of my own. I place one card face down and end my turn."
Turn 9: Yugi
"Okay, my turn!" said Yugi. "I play Pot of Greed, so I draw two cards. Then I'll activate Metamorphortress! This card summons itself as a monster with 1000 ATK and DEF points. Then I can equip it to one of my other creatures and increase its power by the ATK points of the equipped monster. I'll equip him to Gaia, so my Metamorphortress gains 2300 points. (Metamorphortress ATK: 1000 – 3300 / DEF: 1000 – 3100) "Attack her Queen!"
"Darn!" said Sunset.
Yugi LP: 3500
Sunset LP: 3800
"I slap a card face down, and that's all," said Yugi. "By the way, after my Metamorphortress attacks, it goes to defense mode."
Turn 10: Sunset
"Cool," said Sunset. "I'll also slap one card face down. Sorry, but that's all I can do at the moment."
Turn 11: Yugi
"I never judge," said Yugi as he drew. "Now I switch Gaia back to attack mode. Attack!"
"Activate trap!" said Sunset. "Mirror Force! So your knight and fortress are destroyed!"
"Shoot!" said Yugi. "Oh well, I place one card face down and summon Apple Magician Girl in attack mode. I end my turn."
"Hey! That's ma card," said Applejack.
Turn 12: Sunset
"My turn," said Sunset. "I set a monster, then I'll play Book of Taiyou to flip it face up, Morphing Jar! So we both discard all our cards, and each draw five new cards."
Yugi looked at his new hand. "Alright! I needed these. Thanks Sunset."
"Now I play Pot of Greed, which means two cards for me," continued Sunset. "I'll discard my Huntsman of the Dark World to special summon The Tricky! And with my huntsman's effect, I can draw one more card. Then I reveal my face down, Space Dragster! This card special summons itself as a level one tuner monster. Then I'll tune it together with my Tricky and Morphing Jar to synchro summon Red Dragon Archfiend! Then I'll power him up with Blustering Winds! It gives an extra grad until the end of your next standby phase."
"Great," said Yugi. (Red Dragon Archfiend ATK: 3000 – 4000)
"Now attack!" ordered Sunset. "Absolute Power Force!"
"I activate my Apple Girl Magician's effect!" alerted Yugi. "When you attack her, I can special summon a level five or lower Spellcaster from my hand and force your monster to attack it instead. Plus, your monster's ATK power gets cut in half."
"What?!" asked Sunset. (Red Dragon Archfiend ATK: 4000 – 2000)
"Your new target will be… Lemon Magician Girl!" said Yugi. "And she also lets me summon another Spellcaster, and cut monster's power in half again."
"You gotta be kidding me!" said Sunset.
"Cut her some slack," said Flash.
"Sorry," said Yugi. "But I think I'll choose Dark Magician Girl as your new target." (Red Dragon Archfiend ATK: 2000 – 1000)
Yugi LP: 3500
Sunset LP: 2800
"Good thing I have a back plan," said Sunset.
"Whatta mean?" asked Yugi.
"Since I just lost life points, I can special summon Gorz the Emissary of Darkness!" said Sunset. "Plus, now I can bring out an Emissary token. And his ATK will be the same as the damage I just took." (Emissary token ATK: ? – 1000)
"Crap," said Yugi quietly.
"Gorz, attack his Apple Magician!" ordered Sunset.
"I activate my trap!" said Yugi. "Magician's Defense! Now since I have a Spellcaster on the field, I can cut all the damage I receive this turn in half."
"Can I get a break?" asked Sunset.
Yugi LP: 2750
Sunset LP: 2800
"Yeah! Lay off her a little!" said Flash.
"Relax, Flash," said Twi.
"It's all part of the game," said Timber.
"Man, this guy is tough," said Fluttershy.
"Of course he is," said Tea.
"He's the best!" said Tristan and Joey.
"Well so is she!" said Pinkie.
"So am I!" said Rainbow.
"Now my Emissary token will attack your Lemon Magician!" said Sunset.
"Thanks to my trap, I only lose half the damage," said Yugi.
Yugi LP: 2650
Sunset LP: 2800
"I place three cards face down and end my turn," said Sunset.
Turn 13: Yugi
"Alright, I draw," said Yugi. "I play Monster Reborn to bring back my Lemon Magician Girl! Then I'll tribute her and my Dark Magician Girl to summon Gandora-X the Dragon of Demolition! And when he's summoned, I can destroy all other monsters on the field, then you take damage equal to the monster with the highest ATK points that was destroyed."
"What?!" asked Sunset. "That my Gorz!"
"Exactly," said Yugi. "Plus, my dragon gains ATK power equal to his ATK points."
"Oh yeah?" asked Sunset. "Well I activate Torrential tribute to get rid of your dragon!"
"Shoot!" said Yugi "Then I guess I'll just activate Final Geas! This card banishes all the monsters in both player's graveyards. Then, I can special summon the Spellcaster with the highest level among those banished cards to my field. Welcome back, Dark Magician!"
"Nice trap," said Sunset. "Now I'll activate one of my own. Return from the Different Dimension!"
"What?!" asked Yugi.
"With this, I can special summon as many banished monsters as possible," said Sunset. "So I'll bring my Red Dragon Archfiend and Emissary of Darkness in attack mode. Then I'll also bring back The Tricky, my Queen of Oblivion, and Kabuki Dragon in defense mode!"
"Woah," said Yugi. "Nice move."
"Thanks," said Sunset.
"I think I won't attack this turn," said Yugi.
"Hoping they'll all just go away at the end of the turn?" asked Sunset. "Well not this time, I activate Imperial Iron Wall! This prevents monsters from being banished."
"Nice card," said Yugi. "But I activate Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy it!"
"No!" cried Sunset. "There goes my whole plan!"
"Sorry," said Yugi. "I place one card face down and end my turn."
Turn 14: Sunset
"Okay, I draw!" said Sunset. "I play Graceful Charity, so I draw three and discard two. I'll discard Electric Virus and Giant Germ, then I'll remove them to special summon Black Luster Soldier – Envoy of the Beginning!"
"Say what?" asked Yugi.
"I got it at your grandpa's shop," said Sunset. "And I'll use his second effect to banish your Dark Magician."
"Oh no!" said Yugi.
"Unfortunately, now I can't attack," said Sunset. "So I'll end my turn."
Turn 15: Yugi
"Okay, my turn," said Yugi. "I'll just set a monster and end my turn."
Turn 16: Sunset
"Alright, I draw!" said Sunset. "I play Night Beam to destroy your face down."
"Oh man," said Yugi. "There goes my Magic Cylinder."
"Luster Soldier, attack!" ordered Sunset.
"Thank you, Clear Kuriboh," thought Yugi.
"And since I destroyed your monster, I can attack again!" said Sunset.
"Yikes!" said Yugi.
"Attack!" yelled Sunset.
"Not so fast!" said Yugi. "When you attack, I can banish my Clear Kuriboh and draw one card, if it's a monster, I can summon it and it becomes your new target!"
"Then it all comes down to this," said Sunset.
"Guess so," said Yugi. "I really hope it's a monster. This duel is too much fun to stop! Well… here goes…"
Before Yugi could complete his draw, the power at the stadium was shut down, and all the holograms disappeared.
"What the?" asked Sunset.
"What's going on?" asked Yugi.
"What happened?" asked Kaiba.
"I don't know, Seto," said Mokuba.
A low chuckle was then heard, and then the Staff of Sacanas appeared in the left side of the stage.
"Hey," said Yugi. "Is that?"
"Yes," answered Sunset. "That's Tempest's staff."
The gem then shined an orange light on the field. On the lighted spot was a reflection of the Millennium Ring.
The chuckle was heard again, only louder and deeper.
A huge wave of darkness then shot out of the staff's gem. The gem itself began to grow.
"What is this?" asked Kaiba.
"Whatever is it, I don't like it," said Sunset.
The darkness then swirled around the entire arena, trapping everyone inside it like a cage.
"Woah, not good," said Joey.
"Obviously," said Rarity.
"Tempest, is that you?!" asked Grubber.
"It is INDEED, dear brother!" said Tempest in deep witch like voice. "I'm back, and stronger than ever!"A creepy female hand with sharp nails extended out of the giant jewel.
"Oh my lord!" said Sunset.
Yugi gasped.
"What in the world?!" asked Kaiba.
As the evil darkness touched the people, they began to disintegrate and vanish.
"What's happening?!" asked Mokuba. "And what's coming out of that jewel?!"
Another creepy hand came out of the gem, then a leg, then a head. It had long neon green, purple, red and pink hair, bright violet skin, dark indigo eyes, and pointed teeth. Finally, the rest of the body came out. It had bat-like wings, toned muscles, and the Millennium Ring hung from the neck.
"Tempest?" asked Yugi and Sunset.
"Well…" said Kaiba as he stepped onto the stage. "She's looked better."
Grubber appeared in front of the monster. "Tempest! What are you doing?!"
"Tempest?" asked the monster. "She's no longer here! Her fear invited me into her soul! She has released me from my prison! And by combing my dark energy with her staff's gem, I've become stronger than anyone else in the world! Now I can finally create what we always dreamed of, brother. The new perfect world we deserve!"
The other Plana children appeared behind Grubber, then hid behind him in fear.
"No!" cried Grubber. "When used correctly, our power can bring harmony and peace to the world! But just one drop of evil can turn it all into a realm of absolute chaos! This isn't what we wanted! This isn't what the Plana is used for!"
People in the stadium kept on vanishing.
"Please!" said Grubber. "You have to stop this! Fight the darkness in your soul! For our master."
"Shadi is dead!" said the monster. "So he is no longer my master! And anyone who opposes me will meet the same fate! Including you, brother!"
"Look out!" yelled Yugi.
"Get away from her!" called Sunset.
"Tempest," said Grubber full of despair as he disintegrated. The Plana children then vanished as well.
"Grubber!" called Yugi.
"No…" said Sunset.
"I've had enough of this!" said Kaiba.
The evil creature laughed. "Yugi Muto! Seto Kaiba! Sunset Shimmer! Now, the fun can truly begin!"
