Since I'm still waiting on reviews for Chapter 6, I thought I'd get Chapter 7 started. So sorry for the long wait. I was trying to edit and re-edit my Episode Interactive script and it's being a pain. But it will be completed though. In the last chapter, Stacey was facing off against Ghost Kaiba in a duel and flirted with her, even though Joey didn't take it too well. and as usual, threats were being directed towards Kaiba and Stacey flirted right back, but at Joey, causing him to be even more angry. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this chapter and REVIEW!

Chapter 7 : A Victory For Stacey!

Damn it! Pegasus knows how to cover all of his bases, but not well enough. that field took several tries to get into but he finally blew it up,
literally. He finally made it through. But man, Seto had to go through a virtual fortress. Can things get any worse? and now he needed a password, guess what it was? Pegasus, he was so predictable.

"Hey, you were right. but how did you know? well, now we have access to Stacey's data and it is her turn."

"Perfect timing." Seto said.

This Seto was really starting to make her angry. since he killed her dragon, he's been asking for her to just to over there and kill him.
Her mind wandered a little, wanting to know where the real Seto was and if she could ever see him again.
The spirit told her to trust her feelings, but how can she when her heart felt like it was being pulled in two. one side to Kaiba, and the other side being pulled to Joey, even though her gut instinct was telling her to choose Joey.

"Giving up so soon? I thought you were stronger than that. Maybe I misjudged you. I guess you're just another dumb pretty girl."

"Shut up!" Mokuba yelled. "Stacey, you have to know that it's not him! Seto would never say those things to you! People may think he's mean,
but he's not. he's my best friend." Hearing that gave her more assurance, knowing that Kaiba really does like her a little, even though she only saw him as a friend, seeing as she was still in love with Joey.

"I know that it's not him, Mokuba. that's why I keep fighting." She drew another card, hoping that there was something she could pull out that could turn this duel around for her. her only monster on the field was her Dark Magician Girl, and she was 600 attack points short of beating that dragon. Perfect. "Magical Hats, conceal Dark Magician Girl!" she said while laying the card down, seeing the four hats appear and her monster disappear beneath it.

"Which one is she under, impostor dude?" she said with a smile on her face. He looked a little confused.

"Are you so desperate that you have Magician Girl doing simple hat tricks?"

"Not just a trick and not so simple. your move dude, but think twice before you blast away. do the math, 4 hats, one monster, 25% chance you'll get it right.
But the bigger question is, what lies ahead of you if you choose wrong?"

She looked out and saw everyone with smiles on their faces and her eyes met her cousin, Yugi's. his eyes were filled with such warmth and care,
it made her feel like she could do anything. her millennium anklet started to glow, sending chills all over her body, like it was giving her power.
then she looked at the ghoul, not a look of defeat on his face but a smile.

"This is too easy, I know where she is."

"Then make your move. I don't have all day."

"Trust me when I say defeating you was no real pleasure. White Lightning Attack!" The dragon's blast hit the end hat. thank god that she wasn't there.

"Nice try tough guy, and another thing, guess wrong on your next turn and it'll cost you a lot."

He glared at her, a cold stare that just bore right into her, but since it wasn't the real Kaiba, she could care less. she put one card face down, and just smiled.

"Three more left, guess right, you win, guess wrong and you open my trap." Stacey said.

His eyes widened in shock, probably thinking about which one to take down. Joey and Tristan were against it, but she just needed to do this.

"Blue Eyes, attack the middle hat!" Lightning blasted through, but just his luck, it was her trap, man she loved being right.

"Great, now you set off my trap. Spellbinding Circle! this trap card drains your Blue Eyes of it's power, making it so low, that the Dark Magician Girl can destroy it." Now he really hated her, but she just smiled, knowing she'd get her chips back. that trap brought the dragon's attack down to 2300 and since her Dark Magician Girl was 2400, it was easily killed. Now he was down to 500 life points.

"Way to go, Stacey!" Mokuba yelled happily. But then came something else, the dragon. it came back and destroyed her Dark Magician Girl.
Now she was tied with him in life points. He laughed so wickedly, seeing her monster shattered to pieces.

"That puts an end to her. perhaps you forgot that I have three Blue Eyes in my deck and that I tore up the fourth one. there's no way you can beat me without Exodia."

"Rerouting the data for this field and processing the plays, hopefully we can see the duel while its unfolding." said the computer.

"Download now." It took a couple of seconds, then the data came up. "You're right, Stacey's in this duel."

"With who?"

"You're not gonna believe this." The names came up on the screen as well as the cards being played on the field, Stacey Muto vs... Seto KAIBA?! what the hell? Kaiba was outraged. "Is this some kind of sick joke?" he angrily asked. "I never joke, you know that. and it seems that the opponent is using your deck."

"Pegasus took it." he said grimly. "Okay, the opponent has his second Blue Eyes on the field, Stacey defeated the first one using a combination of Dark Magician Girl and Magical Hats. She currently has no cards in play and it's her move."

He cringed, she'll never win against his deck since she's a beginner and not an expert like her cousin.

"She can't win if she doesn't have Exodia. I need to help her! She has no monsters in her deck strong enough to beat this dragon."

"I hope you have a plan... and it sounds like someone really likes this girl."

"Tease me later. right now, we have to work fast or she'll lose in the next turn, unless we can decrease the dragon's power from here."

"Hold on! You can do that?"

"Oh yeah! Download a virus into the monster's hollow computer. This dragon's about to get sick... real sick."

Finding the virus, he uploaded it as fast as he could, hoping that it would work by the time she made her next move.

Stacey really needed some kind of miracle by now. the monsters she had in her hand were Fire Princess and Ice Queen and they weren't strong enough.
She had a fusion card, and a Backfire trap card, but neither of them would work. Oh well, at least she could say she went down fighting.

"Fire Princess in attack mode!" He laughed at her since Fire Princess only had an attack power of 1300. "This is almost too easy. I thought you could come up with something better. White Lightning Attack!" She braced for impact, she fought a good fight, but nothing happened. suddenly, the Blue Eyes was getting weaker and weaker by the second. the attack power began to drop, and it dropped a lot.

The monster began to melt in front of us, Ghost Seto wanted it to attack her but it did nothing but sit and melt. It's attack power stopped at 2000, and then the attack came. "White Lightning, strike her down!" Everybody gasped in excitement, wanting to see what was going to happen.

"Stacey!" She heard him. the real Kaiba, his voice calling out to her. her heart was filled with happiness, knowing that he was okay.
But how did he manage to get to her? The Millennium Anklet works in mysterious ways, my child. She heard the spirit say. but then lightning came right at her.

"Seto!" she cried out, seeing the lightning pass right by her. Looking up, her Fire Princess was untouched, unharmed. Kaiba had something to do with this,
all the more reason to be happy. "How could this have happened?! why?! why me?!" he yelled in anguish.

"Why? Because. The real Seto Kaiba is still alive and well, you big jerk!" Okay, she needed to stop hanging out with Joey so much. "I heard that, Stace!"
Joey yelled, causing her to pout and stick her tongue out, causing Joey to laugh at her and making her even more angry.

"And Seto destroyed the Blue Eyes, I know because I sensed him calling out to me, which was weird. So how about you stop lying and show us who you really are."

"I told you. I am Kaiba, or at least I'm part of him. The evil part!" The impostor began to swell up, popping off parts like a zit, man it was disgusting.
then came his moment of truth, in front of her was a fat old dude who looked like a dark clown. Pink hair, ice blue eyes, and a laugh that will send chills down your spine. "I wasn't lying when I said I was Seto Kaiba, your cousin Yugi expelled me from him during his last duel. He sent me to the shadow realm. But I'm back, thanks to Pegasus!"

"I thought this duel just might turn ugly, but I didn't mean that ugly." Joey yelled out. Well, he wasn't lying. that guy made her almost hurl just by looking at him. "And let's not forget you my pretty. since the day he met you, he was battling with me and you sparked something in him that I've never seen before."

"How about shutting up and putting down a card, you overgrown ass clown?" Stacey yelled, enraged.

He smirked, drawing a card. He put down Lizard Monster in Defense Mode, and Fire Princess attacked it with her fire scythe thing.
(A/N: I have no idea what Fire Princess' attacks are. So, if anyone knows what they are, tell me in the comments and I'll include them in the chapter.)
She knew he was buying for time until he pulled out the third Blue Eyes. So she put a card face down and put down Ice Queen in attack mode.

He smiled, knowing she couldn't do anything else. Drawing another card, he laughed, she knew what that meant, hello Blue Eyes White Dragon, again!
Man, she was getting tired of that dragon. "Nice to see an old friend, wouldn't you say, Stacey? White Lightning Attack!"

"Not so fast, Pillsbury Dough Boy! You just activated my Mirror Force!" A force field formed around her monsters, reflecting the attack right back at him.
She smiled, while he wailed in shock. "Nice trick, but I have one too. Negate Attack!" Putting down another trap, he stopped the lightning at his dragon.
Clever little...well, he's anything but little. Drawing a card, she smiled so wide, she thought she cracked her face.

"This duel isn't over yet, chubs. Monster Reborn!" His face shut down in fear, knowing that she could re-summon any monster from either deck.
She picked a twin. Blue-Eyes White Dragon. "You know, it feels weird being on this side of him. Anyway, wipe that grin off your face, because my Ice Queen gives a power boost to all the monsters I have on the field, about 500 attack powers' worth. Consider this a message from Seto, you loser! Now Blue Eyes,
obliterate him!"

Lightning flew through the air into his Blue Eyes, making his life points drop all the way down to 0. then, there came the spirit taking over her. While she spoke,
her voice took over. "Pegasus may have gotten you out once before, but you'll never escape the shadow realm again! Never again!"

Clicking the heels of her shoes like Dorothy on The Wizard Of Oz, her Millennium Anklet activated and he vanished right in front of her, but not before delivering a warning to Pegasus.
"Pegasus! I sense that you're watching! Consider this a warning! Nothing you send against me will stop me! And when we finally duel, believe me, victory will be mine and my cousin's! We'll win back my uncle's soul and you will pay for all the innocent people you've hurt in the name of your sick, little game!
We're coming for you, Pegasus!" then she came back to her old self, walking down her podium, taking Kaiba's deck and her star chips.

Next time she saw Seto, she owed him a big thank you. and hold on, where was Mokuba?!
_

A/N: Yay! I'm finally done with Chapter 7. Now that Stacey finally defeated the impostor who posed as Kaiba, it was now time for her and Yugi to find Mokuba again, seeing that he was taken again by the same guy or guys that kidnapped him earlier. Only 16 more chapters left and Season 1 will finally be complete. I'm still waiting on reviews on the last two chapters and then I'll move on to Season 2. The other relatives of Téa and Joey should be making their debuts towards the end of the story and season.
