Thetrueazure: Schools out for summer~ Schools out for ever~!
Ritsu: Oh my God will you stop singing that! It's getting annoying!
Kazuma: Come on Ritsu leave him alone, he's just happy he's an official senior.
Ritsu: Whatever, Thetrueazure does not own yugioh 5D's in any way shape or form, only me, and some cards, the other OCs and cards belong to their respective owners.
Ch. 10 Ultimate Offense Vs. Ultimate defense
"I activate the spell card Scrapyard!" Terra slid the card into his disk "This card allows me to add one Scrap tuner from my deck to my hand!" Terra searched through his deck "And I choose Scrap Mind Reader LV1 (0/0)!"
"Another Tuner, and he hasn't summoned yet."
"Your quite right there Krad especially when I'm summoning him to the field!" The said tuner monster appeared on the field "Now I tune my Level 7 Scrap Archfiend with my level 1 Scrap Mind Reader!" Scrap Mind Reader transformed into one synchro gate and encircled Scrap Archfiend, Turning him into seven stars:
Mother earth calls forth her greatest protector to fight the evil that's coming! Behold the power that moves the very mountains themselves! Synchro summon! The dragon of earth, (Azure) Golem-The Dragon of the Earth LV8 (2800/3000)!
The ground started to shake violently when the column of light dissipated, it showed a dragon that was completely made out of rock
"Belial is that-" Krad asked
"Yes Krad, the dragon you see before you, is none other than Golem-The Dragon of the Earth or 'the Unmovable Fortress'!"
"So that's the Unmovable Fortress..." Krad stared in amazement as the dragon gave a mighty roar (DEF: 3000)
"Oh, It's been awhile since I was brought out." Golem said in an old mans voice
"Golem! It's been awhile!" Belial said
"Belial, ah it certianly has been." Golem looked over at Krad "So I take it that this kid is your master?"
"Hey! Who you calling 'kid'!" Krad yelled
"Youngsters these days, no respect for their elders." Golem sighed and looked over at Terra "Well Terra. Let's go!"
Terra nodded "I activate Golem's ability! Now once a turn I can hit you for 400 points of damage! Go Seismic Shock wave!" Golem raised one foot and slammed it down on the ground causing it to shake under Krad's feet, causing him to trip over.
Krad: 2900
Terra: 2650
"Next I play Card Of Sanctity!" Both players drew until they were holding six cards "I then play the continuous spell card Scrap Lube!" Terra's spell card depicted Scrap Dragon in a pool of oil "Now I can bring back my Scrap Archfiend to the field!" The metal fiend appeared on the field next to Golem (ATK: 2700) "I'll end my turn by equipping my dragon with Mist Body."
"Thanks, I draw!" Krad drew his card "Something doesn't feel right. Why would he leave his archfiend in attack mode, unless..." The field spell spot on Krad's disk opened up "I play the field spell Mystic Plasma Zone!" The field started to grow dark
In the competitors lounge
"Welcome to Krad's element." Ritsu said
"What do you mean Ritus?" Kurogasa asked
"When that field spell is active, all Dark monsters get a 500 point boost but lose 400 defense points." Keira said
Ritsu nodded "Yeah but what confuses me is why Terra doesn't seem the least bit worried?"
"Now all my Dark monsters get 500 attack points but lose 400 defense points. And guess what element my knights are!" Krad's knights embraced the darkness surrounding them as they gained more power
Dark Knight Beserker-Kraal ATK/DEF: 2600-3100/400-0
Dark Knight Swordmaster-Zehaal ATK/DEF: 1800-2300/500-100
Dark Knight Blazeswordsman- Gaahrgral ATK/DEF: 2500-3000/300-0
"Gaahrgral attack his archfiend with fire blade!" Krad's knight rushed Terra's monster with a blazing sword but the blade clashed with Golem instead "What!"
"Oh I forgot to mention, when my dragon is in defense mode, he the only monster you can attack."
"Damn! I'll set two cards face down and end my turn." Two face down cards appeared
Ritsu's element started to react "Whoa! Krad's emitting a really dark aura." Ritsu looked over where Keira was, she seemed really uneasy. "Are you OK Keira?"
Keira snapped back into reality "Oh yeah I'm fine." Keira reassured him "Come on Krad, don't let your anger get the best of you."
"Master Apollyon, It seems the user of shadows has a dark side." Satellizer said
"Yes, the amount of darkness in this one is incredible! I must have this power!" Apollyon said
"It's my move now!" Terra drew "First things first, Will shake another 400 points off of you!" the ground shook under Krad's feet
Krad: 2500
Terra: 2650
"Scrap Archfiend attack Zehaal now!" Terra's archfiend threw a punch towards Zehaal
"I play my trap Magic Cylinder! Now you take damage equal to your monster's attack points!"
"INCREDIBLE! IF THIS WORKS KRAD WILL HAVE A SPOT IN THE QUARTER FINALS!"
"Too bad he won't get the shot!" Terra discarded a card from his hand "I play a Quick Play spells called Trap Booster which let's me activate a trap from my hand! I activate my first one, Trap Jammer. Say goodbye to your trap!" Krad's card shattered as well as Zehaal
Krad: 2100
Terra: 2650
"Next I play Pot of Greed letting me draw two cards!" Terra drew two "Next I play Lightning vortex! Now by discarding a card from my hand, all your face up monsters are destroyed!" Giant lightning bolts crashed down on Krad's field destroying every single one of his monsters "I end my turn."
Krad's dark aura started to grow bigger "Damn it! I thought I had him! Every move I make, he seems to be one step ahead of me!"
"Weak!" A dark voice said
"What!"
"I said your weak! You can't even get past two monsters!"
"Watch it bud! Who are you anyways?"
"You really don't know me? Come on Krad..Think." The dark voice said
Krad's eyes widened in shock "No it can't be you! I thought I got rid of you!"
The dark voice gave a creepy laugh that sent chills down his spine "Got rid of me! You can't get rid of me! I'm your darkness! I'm apart of you like you are apart of me! Now if you don't mind, I'll be taking the drivers seat now!" Krad clutched the sides of his head in pain.
"Krad! What's happening?" Belial asked
"I...don't...know..Argh!" The dark aura surrounding him began to enter him
"Oh no! It's happening again!" Keira got up and ran to the door, but was stopped by Ritsu
"What do you mean 'happening again'?
"Whenever Krad gets pushed past his limits, his shadow abilities take over his body." Keira didn't want to recall the last time this happened to him. She ran past Ritsu towards the arena "But how? I thought he got rid of it that day."
"Krad are you alright?" Terra asked as the dark aura around him dispersed "What's going on?"
"Krad not here write now." Krad said in a distorted voice "But I'll be happy to play for him. I believe it's my turn." Dark Krad drew "I summon the tuner monster Dark Knight Apprentice!" Krad's signature tuner appeared
"A tuner!" Terra said
"Be careful Terra! Somethings wrong with him!"
"I activate my knights ability! I can bring back a "Dark knight" monster from either my deck or grave! So come back to the field Dark Knight Swordmaster-Zehaal!" The battle scarred warrior appeared on the field "However his effect is negated and he can't attack, but it won't matter because I'm tuning my level 4 Zehaal with my level two Apprentice!" Dark knight apprentice turned into two synchro gates and surrounded Zehaal, turing him into four stars
Loyal knight of the great King Arthur take up your bow and arrow so that you may protect your king! Synchro Summon! Take Flight, Dark Dragon Knight Tristan!
Out of a column of light came a knight wearing pitch black armor carrying a bow and arrow while riding a pitch black dragon. (LV6 1900/1200)
"Now I use his effect, attack Terra directly!" Tristan fired a barrage of arrows at Terra, but Terra only took half the damage because of Krad's trap
Krad: 2100
Terra: 1700
"Next I play the trap Synchro blast!" Krad's trap fired and hit Terra dead on "When a synchro monster I control attacks, you take 500 points of damage!"
Krad: 2100
Terra: 1200
"I now play Spellbook Inside The Pot which let's us both draw three times!" Both players drew three times "I'll set one card face down and end my turn." A face down card appeared
Keira, Ritsu, and Kurogasa made it to the arena and were shocked at what they saw "Oh no! We're too late!" Keira gasped
"Damn it! Krad! You gotta snap out of it!" But it was no use, Ritsu's pleas fell on deaf ears.
"My move!" Terra drew his card "I gotta thin of something to snap Krad out of this state."
"Let's go Terra!" Golem said
"Got it! First things first, Golem! 400 points please!" Golem shook the ground violently, but Krad was unfazed by it
Krad:1700
Terra: 1200
"Next I activate the spell card (Azure) Scrap Explosion! Here's the deal, I destroy my Scrap Archfiend, and then we both take damage equal to half of his defense points!"
"If this works Krad will only have 800 life points left." Ritsu said
"Yeah but at what cost." Kurogasa said
"What do you mean?" Keira wondered
"Scrap Explosion hits both players with damage, it's a risky maneuver." Kurogasa explained
Scrap Archfiend began to glow with red energy and exploded, catching both players in the blast radius and sending them a few feet back.
Krad: 800
Terra: 300
"Your only prolonging the inevitable." Dark Krad explained while getting up from the blast
"WAKE UP KRAD!" A voice called out cause him to look to where the voice came from, it was Keira
"Keira."
"You've got to stop this Krad, I know your stronger than this." Keira said as tears were flowing down her cheek. "Fight your darkness!"
When Keira said that, Krad clutched his head in pain as he screamed "Agh! You! What are you doing!"
"Taking my body back!" Krad said in his mind
"Fool! Don't you get it! you are nothing without me!" The dark aura that was inside him was pouring out of him as he screamed in pain "Sorry but I'll do just fine without you!" And with that the dark aura vanished
"K-Krad, is it really you?" Keira asked as Krad gave them a thumbs up showing that he was just fine "Thank goodness." They all breathed a sigh of relief
"Sorry about that Terra." Krad apologized while scratching the back of his head "Now where were we?"
"Glad to have you back Krad." Belial said
"Good to be back."
"It's still my turn Krad." Terra said "Now I play Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy Synchro Blast" Krad's card was destroyed "I'll end with a face down." One reverse card appeared on the field.
"My move." Krad drew and looked at the card he drew "It came!"
"Let's go Krad!" Belial said
"I activate the spell card Monster Reborn to bring back my Apprentice!" An ankh appeared, bringing back Krad's knight "Now I tune my level 6 Tristan with my level 2 Apprentice!" Dark Knight Apprentice turned into two synchro gates and encircled Tristan, turning him into six stars.
The power of the shadows will aid us in our war against evil, become the power that is stronger than darkness itself! Synchro summon! The dragon of the shadows (Azure) Belial-The Dragon of The Shadows!
Krad's signature dragon appeared on the field (Atk: 2900)
"Next I activate MY Mystical Space Typhoon and destroy your only face down." Terra's face down Mirror Force was destroyed "Next I activate Belial's ability, so I discard my entire hand, which is six cards, so Belial gains 2400 attack points on top of the 500 from Mystic Plasma Zone!" Belial gained a massive power boost as he roared
Belial ATK: (2900-5300-5800)
"my life points aren't getting lower Krad, just admit I have you beat!"
"Really, will this face down card change your mind?" Krad's face down card flipped up showing an alien shock trooper attacking "Strike Slash gives my dragon an extra 700 attack points plus piercing damage!"
"Impossible! Golem's defense was pierced!" Terra exclaimed.
Belial ATK: (5800-6300) (Azure: OK now this is overkill)(Kazuma: shh! I'm watching the duel!")
"That's right. Your a strong duelist Terra, if you ever want a rematch, just holler. " Krad said "Belial, attack! Shadow Flame Strike!" Belial erupted in black flames and charged at Golem, taking Terra's remaining life points with his dragon.
Krad: 800 Winner
Terra: 300
When the smoke cleared Krad stood there silent for a minute and looked over at his friends and gave them a peace sign "I won!"
