Thetrueazure: Welcome to the weekends, a time of semi fast updates.
Asuka: I don't know what your talking about, your on it everyday.
Ritsu: Yeah but he's on there for a limited amount of time. Anyways you guys know the Disclaimer.
"It's a pleasure to meet you all." Yusei said "I understand from Kurogasa that you guys are going to fight Apollyon in two months." They nodded "We agreed to help Kurogasa, so we are going to help you guys. There are six of us and seven of you guys."
"Meaning your going to help us individually?" Satoshi said as Yusei nodded
"I will help Ritsu and Kurogasa. Jack you'll help Satoshi." Yusei told Jack
"Alright." Jack looked at Satoshi "Try and keep up."
"Akiza will help Terra."
"I hope I can help you." Akiza said as Terra nodded
"Luna will help Nami."
"I haven't dueled in awhile, so this will get me back into shape." Luna said as she pulled out her deck.
"Crow will help Akira."
"It's an honor to learn from the trickster himself." Akira said to Crow
"And Leo will help Krad."
"I must warn you Krad." Leo said "I'm really strong."
Yusei's mark and Ritsu's element started to react with each other, as well as everyone else.
"When do we start?" Ritsu asked
"In a few days." Yusei said "For now rest up." Yusei extended his hand out "Good luck."
Ritsu shook his hand again "Thanks."
Ch.47 Six Samurai Assault
It was night time as Ritsu was working on his duel runner. Hope Dragon was curled into a little ball fast asleep on his chair. Ritsu couldn't shake what his mom said out of his head.
*Flashback*
"I-If the Light User loses in a shadow duel, then the seal will completely shatter." Yuki said
*End Flashback*
"I can't believe that the moment I lose, everything ends. Talk about putting some unnecessary pressure on me." Ritsu thought. He then felt a pair of arms wrap around him, he looked to see Yuzuki there "Yuzuki? What are you doing here?"
"I should be asking you that." Yuzuki said "It's two in the morning."
"I can't sleep." Ritsu said as he sat down and grabbed his deck "The battle is two months away and I can't lose any shadow duel I have."
"Ritsu." Yuzuki said "I know your nervous, but don't forget, we're all here to support you. You have to remember your not alone."
"Yuzuki." Ritsu smiled and kissed her "Thanks."
They looked and saw Hope Dragon looking at them. Yuzuki smiled and petted him "Sorry, did we wake you?" He shook his head "Get some sleep Ritsu, remember we still have that tag duel with Drake and Ashley." Yuzuki went back inside.
Ritsu looked at the mini Raikou who was grinning "What are you smiling for?"
At the Duel Park
Drake and Ashley were sitting at a bench waiting for Ritsu and Yuzuki to show up.
"Sorry to keep you guys waiting!" They looked to see them running towards the bench.
Drake smiled "Hey don't worry about it guys." Drake held up his duel disk "Shall we get going?"
Ritsu nodded "Yeah, I have a feeling it's going to be a good match."
"Well then, let's go!" Ashley said as all four duelists activated their duel disks and drew their opening hands.
Drake/Ashley/Ritsu/Yuzuki: Duel!
Drake/Ashely: 8000
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 8000
"You guys can take the first turn." Ritsu said
"Thanks, then I draw!" Drake drew his sixth card "I activate the spell card Shien's Smoke Signal! I'm now allowed to add 1 level 3 or lower Six Samurai card from my deck to my hand!" Drake fanned out his deck and selected the card he wanted "I pick the Legendary Six Samurai - Mizuho (3/1600/1000)!" Drake added the selected card to his hand.
"So he uses the Six Samurai." Yuzuki deducted
"Now I summon the Legendary Six Samurai - Mizuho (3/1600/1000) in attack mode!" A young woman in red samurai armor and wielding two blades appeared on the field "And since I control another Six Samurai monster on the field, I'm allowed to special summon Legendary Six Samurai - Kizan (4/1800/500)!" Another samurai appeared on the field, he wore dark green armor with yellow highlights, he drew his katana, ready for battle "I'll set two cards face down and end my turn." Two reverse cards appeared on the field.
"I'll go then!" Yuzuki drew her sixth card " "I summon Blackwing-Bora the Spear (4/1700/800) in attack mode!" The spear wielding tengu appeared "Next, since I control one other Blackwing monster, I can special summon Blackwing-Gale the Whirlwind (3/1300/400)!" The small tengu appeared beside Bora "I set one card face down and end my turn." One reverse card appeared
"Then I guess I'm up." Ashley drew her sixth card "I activate the spell card Double Summon in order to summon twice! I summon Abyss Soldier (4/1800/1300) and Armed Sea Hunter (4/1800/400) in attack mode!" A warrior, whose body was like a whale wielding a trident and a monster that resembled a Plesiosaurus, wielding a bow and arrow appeared on the field "I set one card face down and end my turn." One reverse card appeared
"Get ready!" Ritsu drew his sixth card "I activate Dragon's Olfaction, since you control 2 or more monsters, I'm allowed to special summon 1 Dragon type monster on the field! Come to the field, Red Eyes Black Dragon (7/2400/2000)!" Ritsu's shadow dragon appeared on the field "Next I activate the spell card Inferno Fire Blast! With this card I'm allowed to hit you for my dragon's original attack points! Red Eyes, Inferno Fire Blast!" Red Eyes fired a crimson red fireball at Drake and Ashley.
Drake/Ashley: 5600
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 8000
"Not bad." Drake complimented "But don't forget that when you use that car your Red Eyes cannot declare an attack this turn."
"I know that, that's why I'm summoning my Axe Dragonute (4/2000/1200) in attack mode!" Ritsu's armored dragon appeared on the field "Attack Ashley's Abyss Soldier!" Axe Dragonute swung it's axe towards the sea warrior.
"I play my trap card Poseidon Wave!" Ashley's trap card flipped up on the field as a silhouette of a man wielding a trident appeared behind her. A large tidal wave hit Axe Dragonute "This card negates your monsters attack, and if I control any Fish, Sea Serpent, or Aqua type monsters on the field, then you take 800 points of damage!" Ashley said "Abyss Solider is an Aqua type and Armed Sea Hunter is a Sea Serpent. So you take 1600 points of damage!" A bolt of lightning hit Ritsu, causing him to flinch.
Drake/Ashley: 5600
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 6400
"Are you OK Ritsu?" Yuzuki asked as Ritsu chuckled
"Never better, heh, I walked right into that one." Ritsu said " I set one card face down and end my turn." One reverse card appeared
"Then I guess I'm up!" Drake drew his next card " I summon the Legendary Six Samurai - Enishi (4/1700/700) in attack mode!" Another samurai in light green armor appeared on the field, wielding a long gold katana which started to glow brighter as well as Kizan's katana (1700-2200/700-1200) (1800-2100/500-800)
"Hold on, why did his attack and defense points increase?" Yuzuki asked
"When I control 2 or more Six Samurai monsters other than him, Einshi gains 500 attack and defense points, Kizan gains 300 attack and defense points" Drake explained "Next I activate the continuous spell card Gateway of the Six!" A large gate appeared behind Drake "I'll explain it's effect later, but first I special summon the Legendary Six Samurai - Shinai (3/1500/1500)!" A samurai in purple armor and wielding two giant clubs appeared on the field "Shinai can be special summoned when I control Mizuho on the field. Also when a Six Samurai monster is normal or special summoned, my gate gains two Bushido counters." Two lights appeared on the gate.(BC:2)
"Something tells me that that's not good." Ritsu said
"Let's find out shall we?" Drake said as the two lights disappeared (BC:0) "By removing two Bushido counters, one of my Six Samurai cards gets an extra 500 attack points, like my Einshi!" The two lights enter Einshi's katana as it shined a lot brighter (2200-2700) "Now attack his Red Eyes!" Einshi jumped towards the dragon.
"I activate the trap card Mirror Force, stopping your attack and destroying every attack position monster on your field!" Ritsu said as a glass barrier appeared in front of Einshi
"I play the counter trap Musakani Magatama! When I control a face up Six Samurai monster on the field, I can negate the activation of a card that destroys, so say goodbye to your Mirror Force!" Einshi slashed the barrier, destroying it and continued it's assault towards Red Eyes, cutting him in half.
Drake/Ashley: 5600
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 6100
"Kizan, destroy his Dragonute!" Kizan appeared behind the dragon and cut it in two.
Drake/Ashley: 5600
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 6000
"I activate the trap card Miracle's Wake! Come back to the field Red Eyes!" Red Eyes reappeared on the field.
"I end my turn." Drake said as Einshi lost his boost (2700-2200)
"My draw!" Yuzuki drew her card. "Time to counter." Yuzuki looked at Ritsu who nodded "I activate the spell card Gift of Martyr! I'm allowed to sacrifice one monster on my field in order to have another card gain it's attack strength. Ritsu, do you mind?"
"What's mine is yours." Ritsu replied with a smile
"Then I sacrifice Ritsu's Red Eyes so that my Blackwing Gale the Whirlwind can have his attack strength increase by 2400!" Red Eyes turned into golden stardust and rained on Gale, giving him a massive power boost (1300-3700) "Next Gale's effect allows me to cut one of your monsters stats in half. I pick Einshi!" Razor winds hit Einshi, cracking his sword (2200-1100/1200-600) "Gale, attack his Einshi!" Gale flew towards the samurai.
"Ashley, do you have a card to spare?" Drake asked
"Of course dear." Ashley replied
"Then I activate the trap card Rising Energy! Ashley discards a card so that my Einshi gains 1500 attack points!" Ashley discarded a card for Einshi (1100-2600).
"Your still going to take damage." Einshi was destroyed into a thousand pixels when Gale rammed into him.
Drake/Ashley: 4700
Ritsu/Ashley: 6000
"So far so good, Bora will attack your Shinai!" Bora threw his spiral spear at the club wielding samurai.
Drake/Ashley: 4500
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 6000
"I end my turn." Yuzuki said
"I draw!" Ashley drew her next card "I sacrifice both my Abyss Soldier and my Armed Sea Hunter so that I can summon my Levia-Dragon-Daedalus (7/2600/1500) in attack mode!" A light blue sea serpent that resembled a dragon appeared on the field. "Next I activate the field spell A Legendary Ocean!" The entire field was transported under water where there was what seemed to be a city behind Drake and Ashley "While this card is face up, all WATER monsters gain 200 attack and defense points!" Levia-Dragon roared with it's new power (2600-2800/1500-1700)
"OK this is bad." Ritsu muttered
"Levia-Dragon! Attack her Gale!" Levia-Dragon fired a water stream at Gale.
"Yuzuki!" Ritsu called
"I got it! I activate the trap card Urgent Tuning! This allows me to synchro summon during the battle phase! I tune my level 4 Blackwing Bora the Spear with my level 3 Blackwing Gale the Whirlwind!" Gale turned into three synchro gates and surrounded Bora, turning him into four stars.
Darkened gales, become the wings which will soar to heavens! Synchro Summon! Fly! Blackwing Armor Master (7/2500/1500)!
Yuzuki's armored humanoid tengu appeared on the field.
"Your monster is still weaker!" The water stream hit Armor Master, but he deflected it.
"Sorry but my Armor Master cannot be destroyed in battle and I take no damage." Yuzuki explained.
"Oh well, I activate the spell card Card of Sanctity!" Everyone drew until they were holding six cards "I end my turn."
"My draw!" Ritsu drew his card "I activate Double Summon in order to summon twice! I summon Mirage Dragon (4/1600/600) and Angel Dragon (2/1000/1000)!" A ghostly dragon and an dragon with angel wings appeared on the field "I activate Angel Dragon's special ability, I discard two cards so that he can gain two levels!" Ritsu discarded two cards for Angel Dragon (2-4) "Now I tune my level 4 Mirage Dragon with my level 4 Angel Dragon!" Angel Dragon turned into four synchro gates and surrounded Mirage Dragon, turning him into four stars.
When the stars of heaven converge, they unlock the door to a true salvation, become the light that descends from the heavens! Synchro Summon! The Divine Light, Raikou-The Dragon of the Heavens (8/3000/2400)
Raikou appeared in a flash of light.
"I activate the effect of Artillery Dragon (1/500/500) in my graveyard, having Raikou gain 500 attack points!" A small armored dragon was absorbed by Raikou as his power grew (3000-3500) "Attack Drake's Kizan! Heavens Flame!"
"Get ready!" Raikou fired a white fireball towards Kizan, consuming him completely
Drake/Ashley: 3100
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 6000
"I end my turn." Ritsu said (3500-3000)
"I draw!" Drake drew his next card "I summon the tuner monster Kagemusha of the Six Samurai (2/400/1800) in attack mode!" A samurai with brown armor, wielding a spear appeared on the field
"He's going to synchro summon!" Ritsu said
"That's right, I tune my level 3 Mizuho with my level 2 Kagemusha!" Kagemusha turned into two synchro gates and surrounded Mizuho, turning her into three stars.
The six warlords of ancient time, prepare yourself as the demon lord appears on the battlefield. Synchro Summon! The leader of the Six Samurai, Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En (5/2500/1400)!
Out of a column of light came a samurai in crimson armor with gold accents which made him look like a demon, he had an evil grin on his face when he drew his katana as two more lights appeared on the gate (BC:4)
"Next I activate my gate's special ability, removing 2 counters for Shi En to gain 500 attack points!" Two lights entered the demon samurai (2500-3000) (BC:2) "Why don't we use the effect again?" Two more lights entered Shi En (3000-3500) "Next I equip him with Fusion Sword Murasame Blade! Giving him an extra 800 attack points!" A second katana appeared in Shi En's hand (3500-4300) "Shi En, destroy his Raikou!" Shi En swung both of his blades, cutting Raikou in half.
Drake/Ashley: 3100
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 4700
"I set two cards face down and end my turn." Two reverse cards appeared (4300-3300)
"I draw!" Yuzuki drew her next card "I play the spell card Monster Reborn in order to bring back Raikou!"
"I beg to differ, Shi En allows me to cancel a spell or trap card once per turn!" Shi En slashed to ankh in half
"Damn, I activate the equip spell Premature Burial, paying 800 life points in order to bring back Raikou!" A red aura surrounded Yuzuki, indicating the cost.
Drake/Ashley: 3100
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 3900
"Thank you Yuzuki." Raikou said
"I discard Rebirth Dragon (3/1800/500) so that Raikou can gain 1800 attack points!" Yuzuki discarded Rebirth Dragon as Raikou absorbed it's powers (3000-4800) "Attack Shi En with Heavens Flame!" Raikou fired a white fireball at Shi En.
"I activate the trap card Return of the Six Samurai, this allows me to special summon 1 Six Samurai monster from my grave. Come back Kizan!" The dark greem armored samurai reappeared on the field "Next comes Shi En's second effect, by giving up another samurai, he is safe from destruction!" The fireball destroyed Kizan
Drake/Ashley: 1600
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 3900
"I set one card face down and end my turn." One reverse card appeared
"My turn." Ashley drew her card and smiled "It's time we ended this."
"What do you mean?" Ritsu asked
"I sacrifice my Levia-Dragon so that I can special summon Ocean Dragon Lord - Neo-Daedalus (8/2900/1600)!" A giant sea serpent with two heads appeared on the field and gained a boost from the field spell (2900-3100)
"That's big!" Ritsu said
"Drake, do you mind?" Ashley asked
"Not at all."
"I activate my Ocean Dragon's special ability! I can send a 'Umi' I control to the graveyard so that I can send every other card on the field to the graveyard, and my field spell is treated as Umi!" A large wave devoured every card on the field except for Neo-Daedalus (3100-2900) "I now summon Familiar-Possessed - Eria (4/1850/1500) in attack mode!" A girl with light blue hair, carrying a scepter appeared on the field "Attack them directly!" Eria fired a light blue blast at them.
Drake/Ashley: 1600
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 2050
"I guess we lost." Ritsu said with a smile
"Yeah." Yuzuki said
"Neo-Daedalus, end this with Ocean Tsunami!" Neo-Daedalus sent out a giant tidal wave towards Ritsu and Yuzuki, dropping their life points to zero.
Drake/Ashley: 1600: Winner
Ritsu/Yuzuki: 0
As the solid vision vanished, Drake and Ashley walked over to Ritsu and Yuzuki
"That was a good match you two." Drake said with a smile
"Yeah, you guys are good." Ashley said "If I hadn't have drawn Neo-Daedalus we would have lost."
"Thanks you guys." Ritsu shook Drakes hand "Maybe next time we meet we can have a rematch."
"Sounds good." Drake said "Until then, you better be ready." Drake and Ashley walked off. Leaving Ritsu and Yuzuki standing there.
"That was an awesome match." Yuzuki said
"It was." Ritsu gave Yuzuki a passionate kiss
"What was that for?" Yuzuki giggled
"What? I can't kiss my girlfriend?" Ritsu pouted as Yuzuki playfully nudged him. "Let's go."
"OK."
