Chapter 16: Nature Draw and Nature Spirits
Hey everyone I'm back. I am so sorry about the wait I was just struggling on how to get this right. But for your patience, I added a special treat to this chapter I think you'll all like. Please Review and Enjoy.
It was lunchtime at Duel Academy and Jaden and Syrus were running down a hallway towards the card shack.
"Jaden, Takeru, slow down!" Syrus whined lagging behind them.
"I can't, not on Sandwich Day!" Jaden said.
Turning the corner to the card shack, they saw multiple students standing around a cart that was filled with unlabeled sandwiches.
"Isn't it great Sy? All these choices and not a single one of them labeled." Jaden said.
"How is this great? There are ostrich burgers, grilled tongue and a lot of other nasty flavors." Syrus said.
"But there's one good one, compliments of the rooster who lays the golden eggs. The eggwich." Jaden said.
"Good luck, it's been 5 weeks since you've been able to draw it." Syrus said.
Jaden reaches in and grabs a sandwich but when he took a bite a sad expression appeared on his face. "Grilled tongue." He sighs.
"That's the fifth week in a row that's happened." Syrus said when Takeru walks up.
Reaching inside he pulls one out and takes a bite. "Hmm Roast Beef not bad."
"Better a bad draw here then in a duel." Alexis said holding two sandwiches.
"Hey Alexis. Let me guess you didn't get it either?" Takeru asks.
"Nope." Alexis shakes her head.
"It's true Takeru, for the past 5 weeks no one has been able to draw the eggwich." Dorothy said walking out. "Someone must be sneaking them out after hours."
"Wow that thief must be pretty good to draw those 5 weeks in a row." Syrus said but that just made Jaden angry.
"I'm sorry." Dorothy said.
"Hey it's not your fault, it's the thief's fault." Takeru said.
"In fact, let's catch this thief!" Jaden declared.
"How are we going to do that?" Syrus asks.
"By having a sandwich stakeout, 24/7." Jaden said.
"Good idea." Alexis nods. 'Maybe this eggwich thief will have a lead on where my brother is.'
"Takeru, you want to join us?" Syrus asks.
"As much as I do I got plans tonight, but don't worry something tells me with Jaden like this you'll be fine." Takeru points causing Alexis to giggle.
"Probably." She nods.
Later that day as the sun was setting, Takeru was sitting outside helping Mindy with her homework.
As Takeru was finishing up his assignment, Mindy was staring at him with a smile on her face.
"Hey Mindy what's on your mind?" Takeru asks.
"Why haven't we done anything as a couple lately?" Mindy asks.
"What do you mean? We hang out all the time." Takeru asks.
"I know but I was thinking of something more fun." Mindy said standing up and walking across the table before sitting in his lap. "Imagine you and me on a romantic dinner, walking along the beach or just sitting like this doing anything we want."
"That does sound pretty good." Takeru admits enjoying having Mindy sitting on him.
"But why do you hesitate?" Mindy asks.
"Well what if I do something that could mess things up?" Takeru asks causing Mindy to giggle.
"Maybe I like a guy who's very forward and doesn't hesitate." Mindy said.
'Doesn't hesitate huh?' Takeru thought as he reaches behind and grabs Mindy's waist leaning in the two of them were about to kiss when they suddenly heard a loud squeaking noise startling them.
"What was that?" Mindy asks.
"I don't know, it came from over there." Takeru said as they grabbed their books and followed the noise.
That night, Jaden, Chumley, Syrus and Alexis were at the card shack in Ms. Dorothy's office. Jaden and Syrus were laying a game of cards while Chumley watched and Alexis was reading a book assigned for homework.
"High card." Jaden said picking the right card and winning the game.
"Picking cards, drawing cards, amazing." Syrus groans.
"Why thank you." Jaden said proudly.
"So guys, when this sandwich thief comes around you, think he'll have anything on him?" Chumley asks.
"Chumley, the guy steals eggwiches not grilled cheese. Tell him, Alexis." Jaden said.
"It's true Chum." Alexis said not taking her eyes off her book.
"Hey what's Lex doing over there?" Jaden whispers.
"I think she's doing homework." Syrus guesses.
'I'm waiting for this thief to show up. Who knows, this guy could have something to do with my brother and all the others.' Alexis thought when Dorothy walked in with some pastries.
"Who wants some stakeout snacks?" Dorothy asks.
"Is it grilled cheese? Aww, what are those?" Chumley asks.
"These are my special stuffed pastries with strawberry, chocolate and lemon custard." Dorothy said.
"Which one is which?" Syrus asks.
"It's right—"
"Wait a sec. How about we draw for which pastry we want? I want strawberry." Jaden suggests.
"You want to draw pastries?" Chumley asks.
"Go for it Jaden." Alexis encouraged.
"Alright wish me luck." Jaden said picking one and taking a bite. "Strawberry."
"And on the first try. Way to go." Syrus said.
Soon a shadowy figure was making his way to the card shack and all the lights were out.
As Alexis hid in the lockers, the boys hid under the table and Dorothy hid under the counter when they suddenly heard a noise.
"It's the Eggwich thief." Jaden said as the figure lifted up the metal gate.
"He's an animal." Syrus said as the figure rummaged around in the sandwich bin.
"Now!" Jaden said as they turned on the light to reveal a muscular guy with long black hair wearing only shorts. "Stop right there!"
"Put the Eggwich down!" Syrus said as the guy let out a Tarzan like call before ramming the sandwich cart through the gate allowing him to escape.
"Stop him!" Jaden said as they all chased after him.
'This guy definitely has something to hide! There's no way we can let him get away.' Alexis thought.
Grabbing a vine the figure swings into the forest.
"Finally we can stop running." Chumley said.
"No way! We gotta cut him off or we'll never get those eggwiches back!" Jaden said as they all ran into the forest.
Little did they know in another part of the forest, Takeru and Mindy were in their own little jungle chase as they chased something that was sprinting through the trees.
"What kind of animal moves this fast?" Mindy asks.
"I have no idea." Takeru said when they reached a clearing near the Obelisk Boy's dorm and saw a card laying in the middle of it.
Leaping out of the trees both Takeru and Mindy were shocked to see it was an orange flying squirrel on the other side of the card.
"What is that?" Mindy asks as Takeru looks closely before picking up the card.
"No way." Showing it to Mindy they saw the creature in front of them was none other than the Duel Monster Card Nimble Momonga.
"Wait is this thing a spirit like with Dark Necrophere?" Mindy asks in fear.
"No I don't think so." Takeru said as Nimble Momonga crawled towards them and started sniffing them both.
"Aw he's kinda cute." Mindy said.
"How did you end up here little guy?" Takeru asks.
Mindy touched Nimble Momonga and her eyes widen as she saw into its memories.
Flashback:
An Obelisk was dueling against a Ra. On the Obelisk's field was Nimble Momonga and on the Ra's was Winged Dragon Guardian of the Fortress.
"Burn that rodent! Fireball attack!" The Ra said as Winged Dragon blasted Nimble Momonga destroying it and bring the Obelisk's life points down to zero. "Yes I won!"
Growling in anger the Obelisk looks at his card. "How could I have lost to a Ra?! If I had played a better card than this worthless thing I would have won!" Throwing it into the forest the Obelisk walks away without a care in the world. "Maybe without that worthless card I'll never lose again."
Flashback End:
Mindy gasps as she looks down at the Duel Spirit who had a frown on his face.
"He just got rid of you? Like that?" Mindy asks.
Nimble Momonga frowns hanging his head in shame.
"The truth is not many duelists care about their cards, they think they're just ink on paper." Takeru said.
"Well what do you think?" Mindy asks.
Takeru smiles as the Dark Magician appears next to him surprising Nimble Momonga.
"I think there's more to these cards than just that. Why don't you hold onto it and see for yourself." Takeru suggests.
"Wait what?" Mindy said surprised.
"Why not I think he likes you." Takeru said as Nimble Momonga appeared on her shoulder causing her to giggle.
"I guess I can give you a chance." Mindy smiles causing Nimble Momonga to smile. "You are a little cutie."
Suddenly they heard a rustling in the bushes.
"Hey who's there? This is Campus Security." A voice called out.
"Oh no not them again." Takeru's eyes widen.
"You've already gotten into big trouble with them once. If they catch you again who knows what could happen." Mindy gasps.
Grabbing her hand Takeru and Mindy ran as fast as they could to avoid security.
At the waterfall, Jaden and the others were chasing after the thief as he scaled the waterfall with his bare hands.
"Now can we stop?" Chumley asks.
"Who is this guy?" Jaden asks.
"Damon!" Dorothy calls out getting everyone's attention.
"You know him?" Jaden asks surprised.
"Please take your time answering." Chumley said.
"Yes I do and he knows better than stealing." Dorothy said as Damon slips and falls into the water allowing them to get a better look at him. "My you've changed."
"I change. I change for better." Damon said in a Tarzan-like voice.
"Not your grammar." Chumley said.
"How do you know him Ms. Dorothy?" Jaden asks.
"Where else? From school. He used to be an Obelisk Blue." Dorothy said surprising them.
"Boy they really had a loose dress code back then." Jaden said.
"He looked different back then, but then one day he just disappeared. I was so sad, he always used to visit me at the Card Shack, especially on Sandwich Day. Oh how he loved trying to pick a good sandwich. Shame he was so bad at it." Dorothy said.
"But this guy only draws the good ones. Are you sure it's the same person?" Jaden asks as Damon laughs.
"Not same person. I new person now. I live in the nature, I hone my skills." Damon said.
"Then why'd you leave?" Jaden asks.
"When I Obelisk I test well but when I duel Damon have some degree of difficulty. My draw ruin me each time, so I decide I must improve. I do everything I can think of, but no answer only waves go back and forth always back and forth and then hit me." Damon said.
"Uh you want me to hit you?" Jaden asks.
"No, it hit me. Just like I know what come next in wave I can know what come next in cards, must simply be in tune with nature." Damon explains.
'I'm thinking this guy can't help me find my brother, in fact from the smell of him I don't think he can even find a bar of soap.' Alexis thought.
"This why I live out here. To train, to learn, to be at one with nature, to be at one with the draw. I get very good but still only one way for I to be sure. Ultimate test, I draw eggwiches. That's why I take these past few weeks. Not because I thief." Damon explains.
"We understand." Dorothy said.
"I don't. I mean don't get me wrong Damon, I don't think you're a thief anymore, but…" Jaden said.
"But?" Damon asks.
"But this. I love those eggwiches as much as the next guy, so let's duel. If I win you stop swiping them, you win they're all yours." Jaden said.
"Fine but I expert drawer, there no way you can beat me." Damon smirks.
"Well neither am I." Jaden said as Alexis rubbed her head annoyed.
'I shoulda hanged out with Takeru, he had the right idea staying out of this.' Alexis thought.
"Alright Damon, get your game on!" Jaden said as they activated their duel disks.
Jaden: 4000
Damon: 4000
"I summon Elemental Hero Avian in attack mode!" Jaden said summoning his feathered warrior.
Avian: 1000/1000
"And I'll place one card facedown." Jaden said ending his turn.
"Just like trees flowing back and forth I know what will come." Damon drew and grins. "I play card facedown and summon Drawler in attack mode!"
Coming to the field was a large golem monster with huge wheels.
"Now for every card in my hand that I return to deck Drawler gains 500 attack points and I have 4 cards!" Damon said sending his entire hand back.
Drawler: 2000/2000
"Aw man that Drawler is decked out." Syrus said.
"Drawler attack Avian! Stone Roll Wrecker!" Daimon said as Drawler ran over Avian flattening him like a pancake.
Jaden: 3000
Damon: 4000
But instead of going to the graveyard it went back to Jaden's deck.
"When monster in attack mode destroyed by Drawler, he no go to graveyard but bottom of your deck." Damon said ending his turn.
"My turn." Jaden drew. "I activate Polymerization! I fuse Clayman and Burstinatrix to create the Elemental Hero Rampart Blaster!"
Elemental Hero Rampart Blaster: 2000/2500
"And thanks to her special ability you lose I can attack you directly as long as I cut her attack points in half. Rampart Barrage!" Firing missiles, they flew towards Damon and exlode.
Jaden: 3000
Damon: 3000
'He draw good for man who wear shirt and have haircut, but he no match for nature.' Damon thought standing up.
'Uh oh, he's got a weird look in his eye…well weirder.' Jaden thought.
"I activate trap! Miracle Draw! This how it works, before my turn I guess what card I think I draw if I guess right you take 1000 points of damage. If wrong I take damage." Damon explains.
"Whoa talk about a gutsy move." Jaden said.
'No joke, there are almost 40 cards in that deck and he's going to guess the top one.' Alexis thought.
"You think I won't guess right?" Damon asks.
"You might." Jaden said.
"No might. The snow no might melt, it will melt and I will guess right…draw will be Card Loan!" Damon said as he drew revealing he guessed right.
"No way!" Syrus gasped.
"He's right." Alexis said surprised.
"This guy is weirding me out." Chumley said.
"Now you take 1000 point damage." Damon said as Miracle Draw zapped Jaden.
Jaden: 2000
Damon: 3000
"Next I activate Card Loan, you gain 1000 lifepoints and I lose 1000 lifepoints, but I get to draw one card from deck and then I must return card to my deck at the end of my turn." Damon said.
Jaden: 3000
Damon: 2000
"All that for one card?" Chumley asks.
"I like. I activate Dropper! Now you draw a card and I guess right all cards in your hand and field go back to your deck!" Damon explains.
"That'll leave Jaden wide open." Chumley gasps.
'There's no way he can guess right again.' Alexis thought.
"Draw is De-Fusion!" Damon declares as Jaden reveals the card he drew to be De-Fusion.
"Whoa." Jaden said impressed as he took all his cards and shuffled them.
"This is gonna hurt." Syrus cringed.
"Drawler Stone Roll Wrecker!" Damon yells as Drawler rammed into Jaden.
Jaden: 1000
Damon: 2000
"I end my turn." Damon said taking Card Loan and putting it back in his deck.
"Then here's mine. I summon Wroughtweiler in defense mode." Jaden said summoning the black mechanical dog.
Wroughweiler: 800/ 1200
"Not lishous, with Miracle Draw still on the field all Damon has to do is guess one more card right and it's goodbye eggwiches." Chumley said.
"Aw man." Syrus said.
"Is it over yet?" Dorothy asks snapping them out of their thoughts.
"Uh no." Syrus said.
"This it, just as I know leaves wilt and grow I know I can pick my next draw and with Wroughtweiler in defense mode there is only one card that can help me. I must draw Shield Crush give me Shield Crush.' Damon thought. "My next draw will be Shield Crush!" Damon declares but when he drew it was actually the monster card Doron. "Oh no!"
"He got it wrong?" Chumley said surprised as Damon took damage.
Jaden: 1000
Damon: 1000
"I summon Doron in attack mode!" Damon said as a black bandaged mummy appeared on his field.
Doron: 900/ 500
"So I guess wrong, it no matter! I still beat you! Drawler attack with Stone Roll Wrecker!" Damon said as Drawler flattened Wroughtweiler destroying it.
"You activated his special ability. When he's destroyed I get Polymerization and Burstinatrix back in my hand." Jaden said.
"Now Doron attacks you! Mad Dash Stinger!" Damon said as Doron punches Jaden multiple times.
Jaden: 100
Damon: 1000
"Jaden." Syrus said worried.
"Is it over now?" Dorothy asks causing everyone to sigh.
"I end turn and since you only have 100 lifepoint remaining soon like the seasons end I end you." Damon said.
"Okay that's enough. All this nature talk that annoying fake voice." Jaden said.
"Fake voice?" Damon asks.
"You spent one year in the woods Damon. It's not like you were raised there. It's time to get real if drawing cards was as predictable as snow melting, you'd never be wrong but you did. Drawing's about using your gut if then you'd never always be right. You're only human Damon, even you do go around swinging on vines. That's what makes drawing great, you never know what you're gonna get but you can always hope. Like how I'm hoping for a certain card right now." Jaden said as he drew. "Remember the first card you attacked with Drawler? How you made him go to the bottom of my deck. Well since I had to shuffle guess who's back on top." Jaden reveals the card to be Avian.
"So what? Drawler just destroy him again." Damon said.
"Not this time, I play Polymerization to fuse Avian and Burstinatrix to create the Elemental Hero Flame Wingman!" Jaden said as his favorite fusion card appeared.
Flame Wingman: 2100/ 1200
"Now attack Drawler with Infernal Rage!" Flame Wingman blasts Drawler with a powerful fire attack destroying it.
Jaden: 100
Damon: 900
"I'm still standing!" Damon said.
"Not for long. When Flame Wingman destroys a monster its attack points are dealt to you as damage. Which means." Jaden hints.
"I lose." Damon said.
Jaden: 100
Damon: 0000
"That's game." Jaden said doing his signature pose.
"I can't believe I lost. I don't understand I trained out here for a whole year." Damon said with his voice returning to normal.
"Hey you're speaking like a human being again." Jaden said walking over.
"Huh? I uh…no get…what you."
"Hey it's okay Damon. Just be yourself." Jaden said.
"You mean it? Because I could really use a shower and a haircut." Damon said.
"And a shirt." Dorothy said walking to him.
"Well actually I was thinking all the vine swinging got me pretty ripped, so I was thinking…"
"Damon a shirt." Dorothy repeats.
"Okay." Damon said as he hugged Dorothy.
Meanwhile with Takeru and Mindy they were running as fast as they could to the boys Obelisk dorm with Campus security a good distance behind.
Running inside they ducked behind some furniture as the flashlight zoomed past them.
"They must've run past here." A security guard said walking away.
Making their way to Takeru's room they close the door shut before droping down and leaning against it.
"That was way too close." Mindy pants.
"No kidding. I'm sorry Mindy but I don't think you'll be able to make it back to the Girl's dorm for a while." Takeru said.
"Well at least it means I can hang out with you a little longer." Mindy said when she smells something. Looking down she saw she and Takeru were still sweaty from chasing Nimble Momonga all over the school and avoiding Campus security. "Wow I didn't realize how much we ran."
"Well if we ever have track in Gym I think we'll be fine." Takeru said.
"Think I could use your shower?" Mindy asks.
"Uh I guess but it might be weird if people hear the shower going twice when we both try to get cleaned up." Takeru blushes.
"Well if you're worried about that, we could always shower together." Mindy said causing Takeru to turn bright red. "Ooh looks like someone likes that idea." She giggles.
Takeru tried to say something but honestly, he really wanted this.
As Mindy turns around she walks towards the bathroom swaying her hips seductively driving him crazy until he followed her in.
(Lemon Begin)
Turning on the shower Takeru started to take off his uniform when he sees Mindy had already taken her clothes off and stepped inside the shower. Gulping Takeru steps in to see Mindy in all her naked glory with water cascading down her body making her look so hot.
"Are you just gonna stand there or are you gonna get in with me?" Mindy asks as Takeru steps in.
Stepping behind her Takeru couldn't take his eyes off Mindy and she couldn't stop wanting him too.
'That's it time to go for it.' Mindy thought as she moved in. "Hmm now isn't this nice? Both of us so close and no clothes in the way."
Wrapping her arms around him Mindy presses her breasts against him.
"Mindy you are so beautiful." Takeru said.
"Right answer, but what part of me is beautiful?" Mindy teases grabbing her breasts. "My face? My chest? Or maybe you interested in this?" Mindy turns around and shakes her ass for him.
Moaning softly, Takeru started to stiffen up.
"Every part of you is beautiful. I can't take my eyes off you." Takeru said.
"Well instead of looking do you want to do?" Mindy asks.
Moving in Mindy kisses Takery on the lips.
"Touch me Takeru, touch me anywhere you want." Mindy moans into the kiss.
Reaching up Takeru grabs Mindy's large breasts and squeezes causing her to moan.
Fondling her, Mindy couldn't control herself as Takeru's hands dug into her breasts before one moved down grabbing her by the ass.
"Takeru, yes! Keep going." Mindy moans when she felt something hard rubbing against her causing her to gasp before she feels Takeru grab her hips.
Pulling her in Takeru and Mindy kiss fiercely as Mindy rests her leg against him.
"Mindy I can't stop." Takeru pants.
"Don't remember what I said earlier, don't hesitate if you want this." Mindy moans.
"I want you, I want you so much." Takeru said.
"Then take me." Mindy said as she places her hands against the wall and presents her rear to him.
Grabbing her hips Takeru inserts himself inside of her causing Mindy to tighten up.
"Yes! Oh Takeru it feels so good!" Mindy moans as Takeru starts thrusting his hips causing Mindy to press her chest against the glass just to support herself.
Reaching up Takeru gropes Mindy's breasts fondling her. "You just can't keep your hands off me can you?"
"Hey you're the one who is always flaunting this sexy body to me whenever you can." Takeru said as Mindy turns around and kisses him.
"Others can look but only you get to touch." Mindy said as Takeru turns her around pressing her back against the wall.
Lifting her leg up Takeru slams into her again as Mindy moans like crazy as she wraps her arms and legs around him and Takeru grabs her rear to support her.
Moving faster and faster Takeru moans slamming his hips into hers.
"Mindy I can't hold on much longer!" Takeru moans.
"Do it! Let it all out!" Mindy moans as they both climax.
Exiting the shower both of them collapsed on Takeru's bed.
"You were quite the screamer." Takeru pants.
"I couldn't help myself." Mindy pants. "I don't think I'll make it back to my dorm room tonight."
"Why is that?" Takeru asks looking at her.
"Because I'd rather spend tonight with you." Mindy grins as she climbs on top of him pinning him to the bed. "Ready for Round 2?"
"Absolutely." Takeru said as the two of them press their naked bodies together making out before going well into the night.
Riding Takeru cowgirl style Mindy moans as her large breasts bounced up and down.
Moaning Takeru grabs Mindy's breasts and squeezes.
"Yes! Keep going! Make it so you're the only man I'll ever want!" Mindy screams.
Pushing Mindy down so her back was on the bed, she looks up to see Takeru thrust into her.
Moaning Mindy could feel him go deeper and deeper into her as her inner walls wrapped around him.
Getting lost in the pleasure, Mindy panted heavily as she looks up at her boyfriend.
Reaching up Mindy grabs Takeru kissing him on the lips.
"Mindy, I love you." Takeru moans.
"Me too." Mindy moans moving her hips matching him causing both to moan.
Moving faster and faster Mindy clings to Takeru as he slams into her.
"Faster! Takeru oh god I'm almost there!" Mindy moans.
"Mindy!" Takeru moans as both climax causing both to lay down exhausted.
(Lemon end)
Snuggling up to him, Mindy rests her head on his chest.
"Hmm now this is comfy." Mindy said.
"And now that I have you." Wrapping his arms around her, Takeru hugs her close. "I'm never gonna let you go."
"Ooh is that right?" Mindy smiles.
"You bet it is Mindy."
Leaning in the two of them kiss before falling asleep in each other's arms.
About a week later, Damon had returned to Duel Academy and stopped doing the Wildman thing or steal eggwiches like he promised.
"Hey, anyone draw the eggwich yet?" Jaden asks as he and Damon walk up to the cart.
"Not yet." Dorothy said as the they reached in, but it was too late.
"I got it! It's mine!" Alexis cheers happily.
"Aw man." Jaden pouts as she walks out of the shop with her lunch. "I got something green."
"I'll take it. What? I've been eating bugs for the last year." Damon said.
"Hey Alexis." Mindy said walking up to her.
"Sorry Mindy, you're a little late." Alexis said showing the eggwich.
"Well I never was really good at drawing those things." She shrugs.
"What have you been up to? Jasmine and I haven't seen you around lately." Alexis asks.
"I can't tell you, it's a surprise." Mindy teases.
"You better not be trying to set me up with some random boy." Alexis said.
"Don't worry I would never do such a thing." Mindy said as Alexis walks away. 'At least not a random boy.'
Appearing on Mindy's shoulder Nimble Momonga squeaks asking what was going on.
"Just helping my boyfriend and my friends." Mindy giggles before walking off. "After the nights I've been having there's no way they'll say no."
