Thetrueazure: 3 more days until graduation!
Ritsu: He's growing up so fast, I seriously can't believe it. Disclaimer
"I draw!" Yusei drew his next card.
Yusei: 1650/SPC: 8
Kurogasa: 4000/SPC: 11
Ritsu: 3300/SPC: 7
"I activate the Speed Spell – Speed Energy!" Stardust started to rain on Shooting Star. "Now Shooting Star Dragon gains 200 attack points for each speed counter I have, I currently have 8 speed counters, so Shooting Star Dragon gains 1600 attack points!" Shooting Star Dragon became surrounded by a blue aura (3300-4900). "Next I activate Shooting Star Dragon's ability; I can check the top five cards on my deck and if any of those are tuners, then Shooting Star gets an extra attack!"
"He could potentially have five attacks." Jihl commented.
Yusei placed his hand on his deck. "First card." Yusei turned over the top card and revealed Junk Synchron. "It's a tuner monster! Second card!" Yusei turned over the second card and revealed Turbo Synchron. "Turbo Synchron, a tuner monster! Third card!" Yusei turned over the third card and revealed Hyper Synchron. "The tuner monster Hyper Synchron! Fourth card!" Yusei turned over the fourth card and revealed Road Synchron. "The tuner monster Road Synchron! The final card!" Yusei placed his hand on his deck and revealed the fifth card. "The tuner monster Nitro Synchron!"
"Impossible!" Kurogasa called out.
"Five attacks!" Ritsu said and looked at the field. "We don't have any facedowns!"
"Shooting Star Dragon, Stardust Mirage!" Shooting Star Dragon split into five different colored clones. "Attack Kurogasa's Leonidas!" The first clone flew towards Leonidas.
"I activate his ability; I remove him from play in order to negate your attack!" Leonidas retreated to a different dimension in order to dodge the attack.
"That effect only works on one attack, which leaves you wide open." Yusei turned his runner 90 degrees "Here comes the second attack, destroy his Haos Mantris!" The second clone rammed into Mantris, destroying it instantly.
Yusei: 1650/SPC: 8
Kurogasa: 600/SPC: 8
Ritsu: 3300/SPC: 7
"Now the third battle! Attack Kurogasa directly!" The third cloned struck Kurogasa's runner, dropping his life points down to zero and knocking him out of the match.
Yusei: 1650/SPC: 8
Kurogasa: 0/SPC: 0: Out
Ritsu: 3300/SPC: 7
"Kurogasa!" Ritsu called out.
"Time for the fourth battle! Attack Inazuma!" The fourth clone rammed into Inazuma, destroying him with little effort.
"Inazuma!"
Yusei: 1650/SPC: 8
Kurogasa: 0/SPC: 0: Out
Ritsu: 1600/SPC: 6
"Now the last battle! Attack Ritsu directly! Stardust Mirage!" The final clone struck Ritsu's runner, causing him to spin out while his life points hit zero.
Yusei: 1650/SPC: 6: Winner
Kurogasa: 0/SPC: 0
Ritsu: 0/SPC: 0
Ritsu took off his helmet and sighed. "So close and yet so far." Ritsu looked at Yusei. "You're the best for a reason."
"Yeah, I thought we were going to win." Kurogasa said with a smile.
"That was the point of this test." Yusei said while everyone made it to them.
"What do you mean?"
"I wanted to show you that winning isn't everything." Yusei pointed at the sky. "Even a star has to fall someday."
"I think I understand." Ritsu said. "I've been putting all of this pressure on me because of this war."
"Yeah, think things through before you go into the final battle." Yusei said. "You know we'll help you guys."
Ch.58 Fall of the Dragon Slayer Pt.1
Krad was sitting in his room while looking at his deck. While he was looking at his deck he took a small glance at a vile on his desk and recalled how he received the vile.
At the Order
"Here." Shin gave Krad a vile that was filled with a type of liquid.
"What is it?"
"It's a powerful sleeping agent." Shin explained while Yuki was there. "One drop can knock someone out for a few hours."
"But, why are you giving this to me?" Krad wondered while Shin sat down.
"Because I know what you're going to do." Krad froze at what Shin said. "Don't worry, I'm not going to stop you."
"Shin!" Yuki called out while Shin raised his hand to stop her.
"This is his choice Yuki." Shin said. "I know you've had no parents, and I want you to know that if you ever need any advice, you can always come to me or Yuki."
"Thank you." Krad walked out of the room, leaving Yuki and Shin alone.
"What the hell was that!" Yuki brought her hands down on Shin's desk. "Telling him that it's his choice to face Apollyon on his own!"
"Yuki, I can only tell them so much." Shin said. "They need to find their own path."
"It's time." Krad put his deck in his deck holder.
"Are you sure about this Krad?" Belial asked while Shinken appeared on his bed.
"Leave him alone you lizard!" Shinken told Belial "It's the Kenshin's choice to do this, so stay out of it!"
After a few minutes Krad walked out to the living with a tray of drinks which surprised everyone.
"What are you doing Krad?" Keira asked.
"I know that the final battle is in a few weeks, so I just want to propose a toast to our future victory!" Krad held up a cup. "Cheers!"
Everyone reluctantly took a cup and held it up in the air with Krad. "Cheers!" Everyone started to drink while Krad looked out the window.
"Krad?" Krad turned to see Keira standing there. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, don't worry about me." Krad looked at his drink. "Keira, if something were to happen to me, I just wanted to say-"Krad was cut off when Keira fell into his arms while she passed out. He looked in the living room and saw everyone out cold, so he carried Keira bridal style to the nearby couch and covered her up. "Be safe."
At the Duel Park
Krad was walking around the duel park, looking for a certain undead familiar. While he was looking, Kazuma, Iris, Shnji, Meldoy, Lester, and Miharu watched in the background.
"Looks like it's going to start." Miharu said.
While Krad was looking around, he suddenly remembered the first time he met Ritsu and that he had their first duel.
"Wow, easy buddy, lets calm down a sec! I am not your enemy, besides I have a Elemental Dragon myself" Krad said, while pointing at the floating Dragon
above him.
Satellizer shot through his head, she stole his firstkiss, what he didn't dare say to Keira. Apollyon, the arch nemesis ofthe Six Elemental Dragon Lords, once he is gone the Dark Army will scatterand both worlds will be at peace again.
"You don't have to decide now. Take your time to think about your decision. I can wait, but it has to be before the final battle." those were the words that Satellizer told him.
He attached his duel disk to his arm and wandered around, looking for her.
"Are you looking for me?" Satellizer's voice came from behind. Krad slowly turned around, seeing Satellizer walking towards him, her blood red eyes glowing in the dark. Both were silent, they were looking at each other with cold eyes. Satellizer laughed slightly.
"What's so funny?" Krad demanded
"It seems, you have chosen the side which will fall. What a waste, you could have been such a powerful General for Apollyon. Oh well, then I will see you at the final battle." She said and turned around when she heard Krad activate his duel disk.
"There won't be a 'final battle', because I will send you back from where you came
from and send Apollyon on a one-way trip to Oblivion!" Krad declared as Satellizer gave an evil grin. Satellizer stretched her Arm out and out of nothing; a Dragon Wing-Shaped duel disk formed itself around her Arm.
"How amusing, you want to face me alone without your friends? Where is your so called power of friendship?" Satellizer mocked Krad. "I guess you got something in store, that the other shouldn't see am I correct?"
"How ironic, this is the same arena where I faced Ritsu for the first time. This is where it all started, and hopefully this is where it ends."Krad thought while he recalled what Belial told him about his bloodline.
"Because every single member of the Kenshin bloodline was a shadow duelist all their powers are in you, meaning you're the last of the Kenshins. Aslong you don't create another Heir" Belial explained.
"Y-Y-Y-you mean, I have to do "that", so I can continue my bloodline?" Krad stuttered.
"Exactly, I think, I know which person could be your-" Belial wanted to say, when Krad threw a pillow at him.
"Don't bring Keira into this! She would never want to do that!" Krad yelled which confused Belial.
"Why wouldn't she? She has feelings for you, didn't you know that?" he asked which shocked Krad
"Well then, let's commence!" Satellizer called as they both drew their opening hands
Satellizer/Krad: Duel!
Satellizer: 4000
Krad: 4000
"Looks like they're starting." Kazuma said in a low tone as Iris, Shinji, Melody, Lester and Miharu watched the match.
"Let's hope he can win." Miharu said.
"Ladies first." Satellizer drew her sixth card. "I summon Ally of Justice – Core Destroyer (3/1200/200) in attack mode!" A four legged machine appeared on the field. "I place three cards facedown and end my turn." Three reverse cards appeared on the field.
"My turn! I draw!" Krad drew his sixth card while Belial appeared beside him.
"An Ally of Justice Deck; those cards are deadly against Light attributed monsters." Belial said. "Meaning one of those facedowns have to be DNA transplant."
"Mystical Space Typhoon destroys any card like that so her trick won't work"Krad thought. "I activate the Continuous spell The A. Forces! With this, all Warrior Monster gains 200 attack points for every other warrior I control! Next I Summon Dark Knight Berserker- Kraal (4/1900/400) in attack mode!" A shadow knight wielding a broadsword appeared on the field and gave a loud battle cry from his power boost (1900-2100).
"Impressive, but there is no way you'll win with brute force Shadow User." Satellizer held up her deck. "This deck was originally going to be for the Light user so that the seal could shatter, but you're the next best thing."
"I'll show you something other than brute force by activating Kraal's special ability! This let's me summon a Dark Knight monster from my deck whose level isn't four, so I summon Dark Knight Striker- Engou (5/2400/400) in attack mode!" A dark portal appeared next to Kraal as another shadow knight appeared with a warhammer as their auras intensified (2100-2300) (2400-2800).
"Now attack her Core Destroyer, Dark Onslaught!" Krad ordered as Engou ran towards the machine.
"I play the trap card DNA Transplant! With this, every attribute on the field is changed to an attribute of my choosing!" A hexagon of the six elements appeared above Satellizer. "I pick light!"
"Not so fast!" Krad yelled. "I activate the quick play spell Mystical Space Typhoon, say goodbye to your trap!" A powerful typhoon tore through the trap card while Engou's attack destroyed Core Destroyer while Satellizer coughed up some blood.
Satellizer: 2400
Krad: 4000
"Very nice, that attack was filled with so much hate, I love it!" Satellizer took out a tissue from her pocket and wiped the blood from her mouth. "However, you fell for my trap known as Wicked Healing!" Satellizer's facedown flipped up, depicting a duelist surrounded by a dark aura. "When I take damage by an opponent's monster, my life points return to the point before the attack." A dark aura surrounded Satellizer while she laughed in a evil tone.
Satellizer: 4000
Krad: 4000
"Not only that, but I get 1 Wicked Soul token (1/0/0) for every 1000 points of damage I took." A pitch-black flame showed up in front of Satellizer.
"So that's what she wanted." Krad thought. "I should be more careful."
"I hate to rush things but I'm a very busy familiar." Satellizer looked at her nails. "Are you done yet?"
"I set one card face down and end my turn." One reverse card appeared.
"Then I guess it's my turn." Satellizer drew her next card. "I play the spell card Pot of Greed." Satellizer drew twice.
"I have a bad feeling about this." Krad thought.
"I play the spell card Double Summon, now I can summon twice. And I'll summon Ally of Justice Reverse Break (4/1200/1200) in attack mode." A large tank with a glowing green drill on the front. "Now I sacrifice my Reverse Break and my Wicked Token so that I can summon Ally of Justice Thunder Armor (8/2700/2200) in attack mode!" A colossal lightning bolt struck right next to Satellizer, the trees around them to catch fire. Out of the crater, a giant, red machine, with humming energy blades on each arm.
"Whoa." Krad muttered.
"You like him?" Satellizer gave an evil smirk. "Then you'll love his attack. Attack his Kraal with Lightning Slash!" In an instant, Kraal was cut in two by the blades of lightning while a lightning bolt struck Krad and knocked him on his back.
"Krad!" Belial got out.
Satellizer: 4000
Krad: 3600
Shinken brought his hand out to stop Belial. "Leave him! He should be tougher than this!"
Krad slowly got up and looked at Satellizer who glared at him.
"What is it? Giving up already?" Satellizer mocked while Krad remained silent. "I'm growing impatient; I set one card facedown and end my turn." One reverse card appeared.
"Why are you doing this?" Krad asked which threw Satellizer off.
"What do you mean! This is no time for chit-chat!" Satellizer shot at him with a cold glare.
"What are your goals? Do you really wish to destroy everything? If you do then why?" Satellizer started to get really annoyed at Krad's questioning.
"Are we going to talk or duel? Make your move already!" Satellizer yelled at him.
"I draw." Krad drew his next card and looked at it. "I don't think she's doing this because she wants to. I think if I beat her, she'll be free from Apollyon's control. But, can I do it?"
To Be Continued.
Ch,58 End.
