Author's Notes: Bad News is I lost the chance to get another item I wanted from eBay. So now it's down to: Spider Riders: To the Rescue DVD Set, Spider Riders: Oracle Keys DVD Set, and Yu-Gi-Oh: Yami Yugi Dueling Glove, and the grand total price is $20.09.

Is it so Pancake-Flipping bad to ask for one $20.00 and one $5.00 eBay Gift Cards?!

If anyone knows where, (if Anywhere) in the Store I can find these things, please let me know.

This chapter has been eating away at me since I posted the last one, so please forgive the suddenness of it, and the lack of an idea how it should play out. You people REALLY need to PAY ATTENTION and REVIEW my stuff!

Stage 16: Battle 2; Gauntlets of Glory, The Monster Awakens

(NES: Karate Kid: "The Typhoon Strikes" kicks up)

The Heroes were running across a sandy desert, the Evil Council having mastered control of the game, and created battle vehicles.

(Picture for a moment Labarynth Tank from Yu-Gi-Oh, but with the Perfect Machine King's body sticking out of the top of it from the waist up, and with the head and three cannons of the Barrel Dragon where the Perfect Machine King's head would be)

"How in the Inner World did they create those huge things?!" Hunter fumed loudly, carrying an unconscious Sparkle on his back.

"I don't know but keep running!" Corona shouted back.

From a large megaphone in the lead machine's, "Chest", David Stonewall's voice boomed: "Stop running from your destiny, Alysa! You kinow who and what you are!"

"Doesn't this guy ever shut the Heck up?!" Jax asked. Sonya was right beside him, and she was getting red in the face.

"Jax," she said. "Let's bring this turkey crashing down!" Jax nodded. Together, they concentrated, and they were soon flying a Dragon Jet.

Alysa, seeing the jet, conjured her own fighter. But it was like the Techno-Spirit. (The Jetroid with the Dragon Jet Cockpit Interior, for anyone who might have forgotten) She then signaled Hunter to climb inside. He brought Sparkle in and took the controls in the back seat.

Amazingly enough, the end of the desert was in sight, and the Heroes only started to get winded now.

Alysa and Sonya blasted the ground vehicles to piles of junk, and quickly hurried to join the others. David and Katrina fumed in fury.

Metro City Arcade:

"Those power readings are slowly climbing," Billy stated to Nightwolf and Marion.

"The Monster knows of the, 'Chase for the Armor', and is beginning to awaken." Nightwolf responded.

"But Jaden, Hart, Alexis Dirk and Aggie haven't fulfilled their parts of the Legend yet," Marion said.

"They will," Billy soothed, placing a hand gently on her shoulder. "The Code of the Double Dragon will ensure they prevail."

Inside the game:

After finally reaching a nearby tavern, the Heroes had finally caught their breath, and Sparkle was waking up.

"Hunter?" she whispered.

"It's all right," he said, stroking her cheek. "They're gone." Then he added under his breath: "For now..."

Jaden cocked his head, anad looked to a table in the back of the room. There was a Duel mat on the table, and a fellow in a purple cloak with red gloves sitting there, shuffling a deck of cards. Jaden figured they must have been Duel Monsters cards.

"Yo Alexis," he said, "I think that guy's a Duelist."

Alexis followed his gaze and stared at the man.

"That guy? Nah. He can't be," she said.

Alysa looked over, and could swear she glimpsed a crystaline pair of gloves in the pouch that was resting beside his chair. Concentrating her thoughts, she caused a Dueling Glove to appear on her right hand, and a Duelist Academy Duel Disk to appear on her left forearm.

"Whoa, whoa! Time out!" Link and Jimmy whispered.

"What do you think you're doing?" Jimmy asked.

"He's got the gloves for the Armor," Alysa hissed. "I'm gonna go over there and Duel him for them."

Together, the Heroes took various cards from each of their decks, and made Alysa a deck, somewhat of her own to use. Then Alysa made her way over to the stranger's table.

"Excuse me sir," she said, "but I was wondering if you'd be interested in dueling for those crystal gloves."

The stranger shrugged his shoulders and grunted. "Only duel for valuables."

Link held up the Spiritual Stone of Forest.

"You win, you get this." he said. "Alysa wins, she gets the gloves."

"Fair enough," replied the man. Then he and Alysa shuffled their decks, as the crowd all gathered around the table, placing wages of their own.

"Grappler, Defense Mode," he said as he placed his card face-up and sideways on the mat. "And a facedown for later."

Alysa looked over her hand.

'Fusion Gate AND Polymerization?' she thought. 'This is too easy'

"I set this in Defense Mode." She placed a monster card on her side of the mat. "And these for later." She set two cards in the Spell and Trap Zone.

The stranger drew his card.

"I summon Panther Warrior," he said. "I attack your defender with Panther Warrior." Reemembering the rules of his card, he slid his Grappler into the "Graveyard"

Alysa flipped her Trap card.

"Mirror Force destroys all Attack Mode monsters on your side." So he slid his Panther Warrior into the Graveyard. But he went into Main Phase two.

"I play Call of the Haunted to revive my panther." So he slid it right back. Alysa had to resist the desire to shake her head. On her next turn, Alysa played Fusion Gate.

"But I won't fuse using that just yet," she said. "I play Polymerization to fuse Elemental Heroes Avian and Burstinatrix." So, naturally she slid those into the Graveyard and placed Elemental Hero Flame Wingman in the Monster Card Zone slot.

"First I play Pot of Greed and Graceful Charity from my hand," Alysa continued. Then she drew the required five cards, and discarded two. She'd drawn Gaia the Fierce Knight, Curse of Dragon, Blade Skater, Elemental Hero Bubble Man, and Elemental Hero Clayman. She discarded Bubleman and Blade Skater.

After Fusion Summoning Gaia the Dragon Champion, she destroyed his panther and attacked him directly.

"And with that, I end my turn."

The stranger grinned as he drew his card.

"I play Cyber Stein," he said. "And I pay Five Thousand Life Points to Fusion Summon the Blue-Eyes Ultimate White Dragon!" Hart grabbed Alexis by the waist as he, she, and Jaden gasped. Not to mention the chorus of gasping that errupted from the surrounding crowd of onlookers.

"Not so fast, big fella," Alysa cried, flipping her card. "I had another Trap ready for you! Ring of Destruction!"

"That card does damage to both players' Life Points, equal to the Attack Strength of the Destroyed monster." Astral explained, rather calmly.

"So then she'll blow out his dragon..." Hart began.

"...and take the rest of his Life Points!" Alexis exclaimed.

Sure enough he slid his dragon into the Graveyard, and hung his head in defeat.

"Oh yeah! And that's game!" Jaden cheered.

(NBA Jam Title Theme, Super Nintendo version, kicks up)

The stranger haanded over the gloves.

Gauntlets of Glory

Link circled the gloves on the scroll.

"That just leaves the chestplate, the helmet, and the sword," he said happily.

"So what are we waiting for?" Aggie asked. "Let's go grab 'em!"

So the group followed the map to the area marked Stage 3.

End Notes: Sorry if that wasn't so full of action as was the first battle. But I figured; since I've got Jaden, Hart, and Alexis, why not slip a little Duel Monster Card Game action into it?

After playing the GameBoy Advance SP games of Yu-Gi-Oh: The Eternal Duelist Soul, and the Sequel: Stairway to the Destined Duel, I've pretty much mastered the strategy I had Alysa use: Place Ring (Or Bell) of Destruction facedown, your opponent pays Five Thousand Life Points thanks to Cyber Stein's effect to summon Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, leaving them with only Three Thousand of Eight Thousand points left. Since Ultimate Blue-Eyes has Forty-Five Hundred Attack Points, you will have Thirty-Five Hundred while your opponent drops to Zero, and you will win.

Read, Review, and suggest ideas for all of my Incomplete Fun-Fictions.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone on here.

Cheers!
