So I forgot some of the evil hero effects, but hey, that's what tag force is for! I experimented with an evil hero deck in tag force 5, and I have a good idea on how it works now. I primarily use a dragon deck in both 2 and 5, so I have Atticus down. Yes, that was a spoiler. Atticus and Haou will duel in this chapter! Enjoy!
Alexis woke up vaguely remembering that night. She sat up in bed, noticing that she wasn't wearing anything, but ignored it. She was too confused to care. She tried to remember what happened, but all that came up was an image of a smirking Haou. She gasped and shuddered, glancing down at Jaden. How could someone like him have a dark side as evil as this? She needed the good Jaden, the one that loved her. She wrapped her arms around him and fell asleep.

Jaden woke up finding Alexis laying against him. He looked at the clock. 7:00 A.M.
"Lex, it's time to get up. We have class today, remember?"
"Is that you, my king?" She froze as what she had just said. Jaden's eyes narrowed, and he quickly backed away from her.
"No, wait, Jaden, I...!"
"It's affecting you faster, Alexis." Jaden held his hand to her forehead.
"You're a little warm." He then held his ear to her chest, making her blush.
"Your heart beat is regular though. Are you feeling okay?"
"I have a bit of a headache, but for now, I'm fine."
"Alright. I'm going to take a shower."
"Can...Can I join you?" He glanced back at her, and motioned to follow him.
The hot water felt good to her. It seemed to relieve all of their troubles. She rested her head on Jaden's shoulder and kissed his cheek.

'It's time for me to take care of this.' Atticus walked out of his dorm with his deck on hand and nightshroud card in his other hand. He was going to challenge Haou. If Jaden couldn't beat him, he didn't stand much of a chance, but he needed to try. His sister's sanity was on the line. He tried to sense the source of the darkness from his card.
"Looking for someone?" Atticus stopped and looked up.
"There you are."
"Ah, it seems we were searching for each other."
"What could you want with me? Another weakness of my sister? Or have you come to kill me for good? Which one, option A or B?"
"Option C. I'm recruiting you as well. Sure, Alexis will be my queen, but I sense something stronger inside of you. Unlike her, you have experienced real pain, real despair, real darkness. You'd make an excellent Lieutenant, Atticus."
"Heh, is that so? Well, sorry to disappoint you..." His nightshroud card began to glow, and in a few seconds, he stood in his black coat with his mask on. "But that's not going to happen."
"Oh? So you've learned to control the power of that card? Your personality hasn't changed, after all. You're still Atticus, not Nightshroud."
"Right. So, will you duel me, Haou?" His duel disk activated.
"I suppose I will. I've got 5 minutes to kill. Time to embrace the darkness, Atticus Rhodes." Haou's duel disk activated.
Both: "LET'S DUEL!"

Jaden and Alexis were in the shower as this happened. Both of them flinched. Jaden turned around and placed his hands on Alexis' arms.
"Did you feel that?"
"Yes. Haou is about to duel someone outside our dorm (Remember, Alexis' mind has Haou's influence, so she can sense when he does something important).
"Lex, we're going to skip class today. Come on, let's dry off and get dressed." He turned the shower off. While Jaden put on his regular uniform, Alexis' was in the laundry, so she had nothing but...the black outfit from Haou. She sighed, and pulled it on. It was very similar to her usual school uniform, like he said. The skirt was black with a silver lining on it. The top was a black undershirt not unlike her other one, only this one was a little tighter, so her breasts appeared at their real size, not suppressed like in her other shirt. It was a little more revealing, in her opinion. The final piece was a jet black short jacket that went over her undershirt. Her breasts still perked up the jacket. A pair of black high heels came with it, which she put on as well.
"You're wearing that?"
"I have nothing else, and I'd be caught dead in that armor. It's not because of his influence, trust me."
"Alright. Come on."
"Jaden, wait."
"Hm?"
"I'm worried that I'll change sooner than we think. We need to make the most of our time together."
"What do you mean?"
"Tonight, no matter what happens, I want to do it. I want to have sex."
"Uh, but we've only been together for..."
"I've known you for 3 years, Jaden. Sure, we've only been dating for the past week or so, but our feelings for each other have been there since the beginning!"
"...Alright. We'll do it." She smiled and nodded, and they hurried down to the entrance.

Atticus: 4000
Haou: 4000
"I think I'll start. I summon Spear Dragon in attack mode! (1900/0). Then I'll place two cards face down and end my turn.
"My turn. I draw. First I activate Graceful Charity, letting me draw three cards, and then I discard two. Next, when I control no monsters, I can special summon Evil Hero Infernal Prodigy in attack mode (300/600). Now, I sacrifice him in order to summon Caius the Shadow Monarch (2400/1000)! When Caius is tribute summoned, I can remove from play one card on the field. If that card happens to be a dark monster, you take 1000 points of damage. Now fortunately for you, Spear Dragon is a wind monster, so you won't take damage, but he's still removed!"
"I activate my trap, Burst Breath! By tributing a dragon monster I control, all other monsters on the field whose defense is less than the attack of my tributed monster get destroyed! Let me spell it out for you: my Spear Dragon has an attack of 1900. Caius has 1000 defense. Therefore, he goes bye-bye." Both monsters were wiped out.
"Hmph. I place two cards face down and end my turn."
"My turn! Draw! Heh. I activate the spell card Ancient Rules! This lets me special summon one level five or higher normal monster in my hand. I summon my Tri-Horned Dragon (2850/2350)! Next, I activate polymerization, fusing my Red Eyes with my Meteor Dragon to form Meteor Black Dragon (3500/2000)! Now I activate my face down card, Call of the Haunted! I can bring back my Red Eyes Black Dragon (2400/2000)! Now, attack! Let's finish him!"
"Trap, activate. Radiant Mirror Force. Since you have at least 3 attack position monsters on your side of the field, they're all destroyed." And there they went.
"Why, thank you. Because now I can activate this: Dragon's Mirror! By removing from play dragon monsters from my field or graveyard, I can fusion summon a dragon monster with those monsters listed as fusion materials! So I remove my Spear Dragon, Meteor Dragon, Red Eyes Black Dragon, Tri-Horned Dragon, and Meteor Black Dragon from play. FUSION SUMMON! Come forth, Five-Headed Dragon (5000/5000)!" A dragon with heads of fire, water, earth, darkness, and wind appeared on the field, roaring triumphantly.
"That ends my turn." Haou looked up at the creature indifferently.
"My turn. Draw. Hmph. You fought well, but I'm afraid this is the end. I'll start by activating the spell card Dark Calling. Now I can remove from play monsters in my hand or in the graveyard who can only be fused with dark fusion and fuse them."
"Dark fusion?!"
"Correct. I remove from my graveyard Elemental Heroes Sparkman and Clayman."
"Wait! I never sent those there!"
"Remember my first move? I activated Graceful Charity. When I discarded two cards, I sent these."
Atticus' eyes widened in shock. 'Impossible! He planned that far ahead?!'
"FUSION SUMMON! Come forth, Evil Hero Lightning Golem (2400/1500)! I activate my Golem's effect. Once per turn, it can destroy one monster on the field. There goes your dragon."
'Don't worry Atticus. You have Mirror Force face down, and Monster Reborn in your hand. Once your dragon's back, you'll win!'
"I sacrifice my Golem to summon Granmarg the Rock Monarch (2400/1000). When he's summoned, his effect activates, letting me destroy one face down card on the field."
"WHAT?!" Atticus' card shattered into pieces.
"Mirror Force. What a shame. Alright. I activate my last face down card, Cursed Prison! I can select one card in my Extra Deck and place it in defense mode on the field. Its effects are negated, and its battle position cannot be changed (It actually has to be a synchro monster according to the real effect, but for the purpose of this duel, it can be any kind). I bring out my Evil Hero Malicious Fiend (3500/2100)! Time to wrap this up. I activate Dark Fusion! I fuse together Granmarg with Malicious Fiend! FUSION SUMMON! Come forth, Evil Hero Dark Gaia (?/?)! Dark Gaia's attack points are equal to the sum of the two monsters used to fuse it! 3500+2400=5900, AKA your demise. Dark Gaia, attack him directly! Make him see the darkness!"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Haou: 4000
Atticus:0
Atticus fell to his knees. Haou walked over and placed his hand on the former's head. After a quick burst of black and dark red, Atticus stood up with a powerful dark aura radiating from him. It was at that time that Jaden and Alexis arrived.
"What the-?! Atticus?!" she shouted. Haou opened a portal and walked towards it.
"Come."
"Of course, my king." Haou disappeared into the portal. Atticus walked up to it, and turned his head towards them, giving them a smirk before disappearing in after him. The portal closed. Alexis fell on her knees, and Jaden bent down with her.
"Jaden. H-He's g-got my b-brother..." The image of Atticus' evil smile flashed through her head before she passed out.
End.
I know I disregarded the hand count in the duel, and that it doesn't add up, but please just roll with it. I said in the beginning that the duels would be a little tough to write, so I'm by no means perfect with them.
