jalal the dragonborn Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 [align=center]live to ride, ride to survive All was blackness, blackness and silence, there was the sound of dripping, from a broken pipe, water falling down into the depths and then being swallowed up by the blackness. He opened his eyes, once filled with colour, now nothing more than brilliant purple now imposed upon the darkest black, piercing the darkness and the gloom like a knife, all before him was laid bare, light up in purple and fire. Before him a single candle burning, its purple flame flickering and casting strange shadows that seemed to move with a sinister purpose of their own. He was robed in black, that seemed to shimmer and waver as if its paltry existence were nothing more than gas, his hands were gloved and both were trimmed in a faded orange, the only color in the darkness. A gloved hand reached out and snuffed out the candle, the strange material making no reaction to the flame and embers, the purple light in his eyes died, returning them to a silver orange that seemed almost alien among the other colors. The faint glowing embers were rubbed from the gloved hand as they scattered to the floor, now the only light in the room, cooling on the floor, filling the room with a strange essence as patterns wove themselves in the darkened smoke. Now that same hand pulled itself back and around and the doors behind it burst open, revealing a starry sky, suddenly the stars were extinguished from his view by smoke, soon they would all disappear, as had been foreordained, he stepped out into the night sky, to him its austere and lustrous beauty was now lost upon him. Held one arm up, and the shadows gathered, merging, melding, gather, solidifying themselves together into a single object. I t was a duel-disk, black as the darkest pitch, and its card-holder was filled in an instant, each card filled and enshrouded with the same darkness that was with him, one used for the purposes of himself and those he cared, now turned for a more … useful purpose, vengeance. He stepped towards the edge, the building was a wreck, as were all of them, yet this one still stood, an aging monument of better days, soon it would all be gone, all would be the wasteland of the Underworld, all would be … his Paradise. There was a fleeting shadow that cast itself across the building, more shadows appeared, these much larger, more defined, sharper edges and more strength. At his will they were commanded to change, to form new shapes, an engine any many more, each intricately designed the way he would have had them, perfected in every way, balanced and fast, sleek and perfect, and as black as the midnight sky. Mounting it he experimentally twisted the throttle, revelling in the infernal roar that came from the engine as he gunned it off of the edge, this time enjoying the thrill of falling, down, down, down. Shadows once again bent to his will, formed themselves beneath him, creating a bridge of sorts which guided him down to the ground. He landed smoothly, like some dark, demonic bird descending from the heavens, the roads were empty, long abandoned, no prey would he find here, no victims to hunt, he would have to look to more … populated areas, where the souls of other stretched themselves out like delicacy towards the dark divinities of the Underworld, It was time for him to reintroduce himself, to the world. ----- Brown hair and blue eyes caught the sun experimentally as they gleamed under the new helmet, it was white, and eclipsed in blue, as was the Duel-Runner, brand-new, after all, its not everyday he got to spend money like water, both of which were always short of in the Belts. The Engine roared like a storm as people hastily moved out of the way, dividing like the ocean as he rode down roads crowded with people, both poor and … well off I suppose you could call them. This was his kind of town, were the streets were run by two things, either a duel-disk or a duel-runner, preferably the second, it was more … interesting to say the least, duel-running in the streets at night, now there was something to get the blood pulsating, you never knew what was around the next bend, the streets here were always changing. There was a strange blipping sound on the monitor, that normally only meant one thing and one thing only, a challenge, he swerved to a stop, the engine’s gentle throbbing noise filling the air as the screen dilated, revealing nothing but blackness, annoyed, Chris tapped the screen with two fingers angrily “What’s up with this thing?, it can’t be broke it’s brand new” “Brand-new is it!” dripped a voice, the kind of voice that sends a shiver down your spine like no other, like ice being inserted into your shirt on a hot day, sudden cooling sensation that makes the hair on the back of your neck rise up, and your blood begin to grow cold with gnawing fear. “Hey!, who is this?” “Someone with a grudge” came the icy reply, Chris relaxed, punks these days, always trying to be the hard man, well two could play at that game, he leaned back in the runners seat, casually observing his fingernails, “Well that really narrows the list down doesn’t it” he responded, putting on an air of indifference, he didn’t care anyway, all he lived for now was the trill of the “Try dead” came the sibilant reply, Chris stopped as that cold feeling suddenly returned with much more force, a sudden silence descended as his engine stalled, cutting out into silence. He could hear and feel his heart beating steadily, could it be? … impossible? Then the black screen wavered once before vanishing, being replaced with a small radar, the Runner Radar it was called by everyone who had one, it could locate a Duel-Runner anywhere within about half-a-mile, depending on the quality, most of them had been stolen from Sector Security at some time or another and all were put too good use, eventually. One blip occurred, pulsating every few seconds, in faded black, marking a location a few blocks from where he was, Chris gripped the handles tightly, his gloved knuckles turning white beneath the leather, what was going on. Both his sense of pride and his curiosity piqued he gunned the engine as a small timer appeared n the screen, dialling off 3 minutes, he snorted “Three minute, it’ll take me half of that at the most” --- The parking-lot was made up of 4 whole tiers and stretched out for a reasonable distance, no one knew why it had been built in the first place, someone with not enough sense and too much money, just goes to show how dumb people could be at times. The top tier was deserted, and above him he could look up and see dark clouds gathering in the sky, it was going to get stormy, he pulled himself off the runner and walked a few aces away, admiring the view from up here as he looked around, seeing no one, there was nothing here, he turned back to his duel-runner, there was a sudden flash of lightning, simultaneously punctuated by a humongous rumble of thunder, he paused, something wasn’t right here, he could feel the hairs on the back of his neck rising again, as, with a feeling of dread, he turned around. Every bone, muscle and sinew in his body screaming for him to run, but his pride quashed that immediately, and his logic routed the fear like the vermin it was. A figure stood behind him, robed and cloaked, a black hood, trimmed with orange and somehow even the colour appeared malicious in the malevolent setting of the situation. “So it seems you decided to come, just like I did” the figure spoke, the voice no less chilling then it had been coming out of a speaker, if even more so now he could hear it for real, there was a hidden malice that seemed to hide behind every syllable and a darkness that enshrouded every word, here before him was something .. evil? He found it harder to talk then he had in a long time, word jarred back behind iron, fear-clad muscles. “Yeh, s-so what, you were the one that called me here” he said, perhaps with much more bravado then the situation really demanded “That is true” came the reply “but let us not forget, that it was you who also called Me!” and with that final Me, both hands raised themselves to the hood hand flung it back, at that same moment, There was a massive blast of lightning, forking across the sky, eclipsing his face, showing pale blue hair darkened almost to he point of black, and orange eyes with a silvery tint and behind it, what had once been white, was now a depthless black, the face was pale, almost vampiric, with a twisted smile curling at the edges of his lips. Chris felt his knees begin to shake, and that was an understatement, one hand gripped the Duel-Runner so hard that it began to pain him and the other hand dangled useless as a piece of meat. “And now” Alex said, twisting one hand before him in a fist, “I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds, the Eternal Darkness, Lord of the night and…” then with a flourish he pulled back the arm of the robe covering his right arm, on its pale skin, purple fire engraved in the shape of a humming bird flickered dimly in the night. “…now the Instrument of your Destruction” he finished, replacing the robe over his arm, this time however, the mark appeared on the outside of the robe, it malevolence not vanishing despite the mysterious material pulled over dead flesh. Chris gulped, scared stiff beginning to just touch the surface of what was now coursing through his veins like venom, it was fear, mingled with impossibilities, and despair, and panic with just a hint of terror in the mixture, all boiling off at one point, his mouth, and at that point he was really truing hard not to scream. “H-h-how?” was all he could manage to squeeze past his dried throat and fear-drawn lips, each new word an iron strake in his chest. The smile widened, and the face twisted, it expression cold and cruel, “That isn’t you’re concern now” came the response as the thunder flashed again and he flung his arms wide, now the mark on his arm grew brighter, and brighter. There was another bolt of lightning as the sky darkened, Chris looked up, astounded, in deep purple lines, the mark on his arm engraved itself into the sky, wings, beak, claws all being formed, things seemed to pause, silently, as the look on his once friends face grew ecstatic, and at the same time, the symbol dropped out of the sky, smashing into the ground, careless of building or anything else in the area, the symbol was doubled over, each single line dividing into two, the perfect track. Another gesture of that marked arm brought a runner two him, it surface rippling black and red, it was a Duel-Runner created from raw shadows at its presence was a sign, in its wake purple fire burned before cooling and vanishing, slightly cheesy, but it had a very good effect upon people. He mounted it, “Now Chris, let us experience the terror of the true Turbo Duel, a Shadow Turbo Duel” Gunning the engine to an impossible decibel, he slammed a foot on the accelerator and plunged off the edge, landing on the ramp below, coasting such an impossible jump easily, before slamming into the round start, inside the two purple lines that marked the start of the huge geoglyph of flame. Chris wasn’t in control of his movements now, he was so afraid he wasn't sure what to do, except Duel, and Win, yes that was it, If he could Win, then this Nightmare would end, and he would have defiantly claimed his final victory, and he would win, because the stakes in this game looked much more than a normal Turbo Duel. Alex gave another maniacal laugh as Chris Runner appeared on the start next to him “Are you ready to duel your way straight into hell” He laughed again, this one more chilling than before, “Let’s Turbo Duel, Chris” -Duel Mode Engaged- -Auto-Pilot De-activated- Chris blinked, was he trying to kill them both, with the auto-pilots not running, they might both end up dying if they lost control. Over the roar of the engines, as they released the brakes, Chris heard his enemies voice, “First one passed the first corner gets the first turn”. - Both runners accelerated, tearing up gravel, tarmac and dust in a furious race to be first around the corner, but in the end, Alex wouldn’t not be denied, he slammed his runner straight into Chris’s, sending his into the vast wall of flames off to one side. Chris’s first reaction was one of shock, Alex had never used to resort to underhand tactics, that was his job, the second reaction was one of pain, as he crashed heavily into the flaming wall, there was a pallor heat as his runner slammed into some kind of invisible barricade, preventing him from leaving the geoglyph of flame, but he quickly had his runner back under control and accelerated after Alex. Alex - 1 Chris - 1 “My move traitor, I draw, and I’ll start with my Trap Reactor Y FI (800/1800) in defence mode” A machine appeared, it appeared to resemble some form of Plane, with three huge turrets, one supposedly representing the head and the other two just below it, on the tips of its wings were mechanical gingers and two more wings below them were probably meant to represent legs. Then it knelt down and began to glow blue, symbolising its mode. “Now I’ll set two cards and lets you go Traitor” Chris was sweating now, he had never seen Alex use this deck before, although the cards seemed familiar to him from somewhere, he was now desperately looking for a way out and failing miserably. Alex - 2 Chris - 2 “Fine then, I’ll draw, and I’ll activate the effect of Slime master, in my hand, so now I’ll send my Acid Slime, Draw Slime and Multiple Slime to my Graveyard and Summon, Slime Master (?/?) in attack mode” A strange monster appeared, similar to the one on the back of Card Rotator, except that its entire body was made of a pale blue slime and made it appear almost petty. “So now his effect activates, now he gains the effects, ATK and DEF of all of the monster I used to summon him” The monster began to change color, first it went red, showing it had gained the effect of Draw Slime (?/?) - (300/400) Then it changed from red to yellow, gaining the effect of Multiple Slime (300/400) - (1800/2400) Then it went a vibrant light blue, meaning Acid Slime power had been added as well, (1800/2400) - (2600/3400) before it returned to its normal pale colour “Now then due to Draw Slime’s effect, I can draw 1 card, with that out of the way, Slime Master, Attack his Trap Reactor, with Primal Ooze” The strange creature conjured a ball of slime in its hand that seemed to keep changing colour, then it flung it at Trap Reactor, attempting to smothering it in blue plasma. “I reveal my face-down card, Offensive Reactor, now I can negate you’re attack and end the Battle Phase, anything else?” A Small missile pod appeared, it aimed at the attack before firing, a isle arced through the sky before colliding with the attack, when the smoke cleared it had vanished. Chris gripped the handlebars even tighter, he had been counting on that attack going through, he snatched a card from its holder and slotted in into the duel-disk attached to his runner “Just a face-down and then I’ll-” “You’ll have to wait one second, because now I’ll play my other face-down, known as Defensive Reactor, but we can come to its effect later, because now Battle Reactor effect activates, now whenever you declare an attack, during the End phase of your Turn, you lose 800 lifepoints times the number of attacks you, so since you declared 1 attack this turn that 800 points, now Open Fire” Another small turret appeared beside the second, the one with a small machine-gun instead of rockets. Then the missile pod aimed again, this time directly for Chris, who grimaced, the second missile slammed into the ground beneath him, almost sending him flying, although it did send him spinning out of control, but he just managed to hold and keep himself in the duel. Chris: 4000 - 800 = 3200 “Ouch I felt that … wait a second!, I FELT THAT what kind of sick game his he playing ” Alex’s grin seemed to widen as he saw the look on Chris face began to pale, “Have you only just figured it out, now the pain is real, this is the ultimate duel of skill and punishment, now prepare to receive your just desserts” There was a suddenly lurch as the ground beneath them both jerked suddenly, the ground cracked suddenly, sending huge ripples across the field, as if something was trying to burst out of the ground beneath them. Alex - 3 Chris - 3 “Now then, I draw, and I’ll summon Spell Reactor RE (1200/900) in defence mode” This next reactor looked more vicious, with a hydra like neck and a massive tail, its body was formed of a huge engine and a massive payload of rockets, followed by two engines that had turned into clawed hands. “then I’ll place another card face-down, your move again traitor” Chris took a look at his arm, he could feel it pulsing from where the sudden jarring from that attack had injured him, a few more blows like that and he’d be lucky to make it out of hospital in alive, let alone in one piece. “I won’t let you win Alex, not for my sake, I intend on surviving this duel, despite whatever cheap illusions you try to create” Chris lifted another card from his deck, placing it on the holder trying to think up a strategy as laughter echoed in his ears. “Illusions” Alex laughed “Still you deny the evidence which lies before you, this IS a true turbo duel, one which you will never survive, now make your turn” “Fine then I will, by revealing my face-down card, Revival of Slime, so now I release 1 level 7 or higher monster that I control, and then I can special summon 2 level 4 or lower monsters from my hand, so I’ll choose these, two copies of my Revival Jam (1500/500)” The Slime Master grinned evilly before his mask and gloved hands vanished into his body, then he divided into two identical monsters, both having a sort of spectral look about them, almost like slimy ghosts. “But why stop there, now I summon a new monster of mine, my Tuner Slime (100/100) in attack mode” This Slime monster was small and had a yellow sheen to it, “And Now I tune my Level 2 Tuner Slime with my two level 4 Revival jam’s in order to Synchro Summon…” The Small yellow slime leapt into the air, turning into 2 bright green rings which surrounded the two Revival jams, which looked around confused before vanishing as a huge beam of light enveloped them. “I’ve been waiting to do this for a long time Alex, Aged Creature molded from eternal slime, take you rightful place at the side of the Worthy, Synchro Summon, Slime Dragon” There was the sound of beating wings as a huge dragon burst from the light, from a first impression it looked similar to Stardust Dragon, but it was much different, its surface was pale blue and seemed to shimmer and waver as if it could not hold that form for long, slime dripped from its wing tips and its claws and from its feet and tail-tip. It eyes were red and glowed malevolent, the first of the two to be released, despite the ancient seals that had long guarded them. (3000/2500) Alex’s smile grew even more cruel and his laughter even more hysterical “You broke the Seal!, but you are not the only one with a dragon now, but let us not forget the effect of my Trap Reactor, now you lose 800 more lifepoints” he said confidently as the turrets of Trap Reactor showered Chris with hundred of thousands of small pellets Chris: 3200 - 800 = 2400 Chris’s expression grimed, but now he had his ace card on the field he grew more confident. “You should remember his effect, now he gains 300 ATK for every Water-Attribute monster I have removed-from-play but we can come to his other effect later, now my pet due to his trap attacking would be paramount to suicidal, so I’ll leave you as you are and end my- “You never did figure out what my Defensive Reactor did, did you Chris, well your about to find out, If Aggressive Reactor deals damage, imagine what Defensive Reactor does, or rather, let me tell you, for every monster that you control that DID NOT attack during you’re turn, you lose 800 lifepoints during you End Phase” The Small turret rotated and began firing of its Gatling machine gun, ripping holes in the ground and showering Chris with even more metal, he managed to keep control of his runner, although he almost lost it again when a shard of metal collided with his helmet, forcing him to one side so great was its power and speed. “Great, now I if I attack or I lose Lifepoints, and if I defend, I lose lifepoints as well, I’m stuck especially with no cards in my hand … unless” “I end my turn” “Such a shame, but with no cards in your hand you really had no options, now it’s my move, and I play the Speed Spell – Angel Baton, so now I can draw 2 cards, and send 1 from my hand to the Graveyard, with that done I summon up my Scrap Reactor (?/?) in attack mode” A strange monster appeared, its body was comprised of a rusting engine that sent up huge clouds of smoke and dust, and gave off a strangely loud roaring noise. “Now I activate his effect, soi can remove from play a ‘Reactor’ monster in my Graveyard and he gains the removed monsters Name, ATK, DEF and effect, and I nominate the card I just discard, Summon Reactor SK, so now take his power Scrap Reactor” The huge engine of the Scrap reactor gave another roar as its power began to increase, (?/?) - (2000/1400) “Now I activate my ‘Summon’ Reactor’s effect, so I release my 3 reactors in order to summon…” The Three reactors began to merge, joining together to form a new creature, the powerful fusion forming a huge explosion, when it had finished a new machine emerged from the smoke. It had two huge wings that had formerly been Trap reactors, its arms, hands and body had formerly belonged to Spell Reactor, and the rest belonged to Summon Reactor. “Now meet my Flying Fortress SKY FIRE (3000/2500), and I’ll play him in attack mode, now I’ll activate his effect, so I send 1 card from my hand to the Graveyard and obliterate a card you control, I choose Slime Dragon, so I’ll toss out this card to destroy you’re Dragon, activate Ariel Blitz” The huge monster opened up the lower half of its body, revealing an array of several missiles, three of which burst out, arcing through the night sky to slam into the massive Dragon, sending up a massive cloud of smoke. The expression on both Duellists faces were exactly the same, smug self-confidence, not much had really changed, just the playing field. Alex and Chris have finally clashed in a Turbo Duel. Last Chapter, Chris found himsel backed into a corner Due to Alex's Reactors, he desperately unleashed his Ace Card, Slime Dragon, but he's not the only one with a Dragon up his Sleeve, as Alex counter-attacks with something just as Strong, so our Duel draws to a close, find out who will rain victorious. Read on to find out more! ANd don;t fogret to Reveiw. ----- Chris: 2400 Alex: 4000 Chris - 5 Alex - 5 The Three reactors began to merge, joining together to form a new creature, the powerful fusion forming a huge explosion, when it had finished a new machine emerged from the smoke. It had two huge wings that had formerly been Trap reactors, its arms, hands and body had formerly belonged to Spell Reactor, and the rest belonged to Summon Reactor. “Now then Chris, meet the monument of your destruction, my Flying Fortress SKY FIRE (3000/2500), and I’ll play him in attack mode, now I’ll activate his effect, so I send 1 card from my hand to the Graveyard and obliterate a card you control, I choose Slime Dragon, so I’ll toss out this card to destroy you’re Dragon, activate Ariel Blitz” The huge monster opened up the lower half of its body, revealing an array of several missiles, three of which burst out, arcing through the night sky to slam into the massive Dragon, sending up a massive cloud of smoke. Alex grinned confidently, now with that Slimy imperfection out of the way the Duel was his, then the smoke cleared and he gasped, the Dragon was still standing. “Nice attempt Alex, but your forget his Special Ability, Now I can remove-from-play a Water-Attribute Monster in my Graveyard to Prevent my Slime Dragon’s destruction, and lets not forget his other ability, now he gains 300 Attack points” The huge dragon glared down as a small orb of slime shot out of the Graveyard and into its chest as its power rose a little (3000/2500) - (3300/2500) “I end my turn with a face-down, your turn Chris” the words came out between clenched teeth, he had forgotten, it had been so long since they had first dueled, they had both forgotten. Alex - 6 Chris - 6 Chris was now even more confident than before, soon he would be the one back on top in this duel. “I draw, now Slime Dragon, attack his Flying Fortress SKY FIRE, with Ultimate Slime Force” The huge dragon gave a massive roar, glaring evilly at the Huge plane before flinging itself into SKY Fire, clawing at it, SKY FIRE saw it coming and opened fire with its guns, but to no avail as the huge dragon brought back its head and unleashed a huge wave of plasma, completely covering it in plasma and its began to spark. “Now I’ll play my face-down card, Formation Break, so now SKY FIRE Splits back down into its original components, so I’ll resurrect my 3 reactors in defense mode” Sky Fire began to glow, then he exploded as the three rectors reformed themselves in defense mode, Slime Dragon gave an angry roar as it retreated back to Chris’s side of the field. Chris grinned, he had expected a play like this from Alex, luckily he had just the Speed Spell for the job. “Defense won’t do you any good Alex, because now I activate the Speed Spell – Attack Pattern, now for every monster you control, I send one from my Deck to the Graveyard, then a monster I control can attack all of you’re monsters at once, and that’s not all, this effect isn’t treated as an attack, so your Offensive Reactor won’t be dealing me any damage at all for these attacks.” Chris selected his 3 monsters and slid them into his Graveyard, perfect, now he had even more shields. “Chris you just injured yourself as well, did you forget the effect of my Spell Reactor RE, now I can deal you 800 points of damage since you played a Spell Card.” The reactor monster gave a growl as its undercarriage opened up and fired out half-a-dozen rockets that collided with Chris’s duel-runner, he was prepared this time a managed to avoid most of the trauma. Chris: 2400 - 800 = 1600 “That doesn’t really matter any more, now Slime Dragon, Ultimate Slime Force” The huge dragon unleashed a huge triple blast, colliding with all three monsters, causing them all to explode in a massive explosion, sending thousands of shards of metal in Alex’s direction, who barely flinched as they pinged and shattered all over his insidious runner. Alex: 4000 - 1200 = 2800 Alex - 6 - 1 = 5 “And as a little bonus you also lose 400 points for every monster destroyed in battle this turn but you take no battle damage, so for now I’ll end my turn, and see what kind of defence you can muster against my Dragon” “but don’t forget my Offensive Reactor, now you lose 800 points of damage since your first attack was a completely legitimate attack” “Normally I would yes, but now I’ll play my Slime Dragon’s effect, now I can remove another monster in my Graveyard and reduce 1 portion of damage that I would take Once-per-Turn to 0, and now my Dragon gains an additional 300 points” (3300/2500) - (3600/2500) Chris - 7 Alex - 6 “Now I draw, and I’ll activate the Speed Spell – Reactor Draw, now I give up 800 lifepoints, and then I can draw 2 cards, so lets see what I got” Alex: 2800 - 800 = 2000 “I’m going to enjoy this round, because now I’ll play Speed Spell – Speeder Synchro, now due to this card, If my ‘Speed’ Counters our lowers then yours, until the End of My turn I can double them” Alex put on a huge and sudden burst of Speed, although that was just as side-effect of what was coming Alex – 5 x2 = 10 “But that is just the icing on the cake, because now I can Synchro Summon any monster from my Deck that I choose, as long as It’s Level is equal to my ‘Speed’ counters, and I have just the card in mind, I summon my own dragon” There was a sudden pulsation as 10 huge dots appeared above Alex’s runner as he started that maniacal laughter again, “Prepare to feel the Burn Chris, Nuclear Flame encased within the hardest metal a fiery soul waiting to be freed, now engulf my opponents with the flames of Vengeance, Synchro Summon, Nuclear Reactor Dragon” The 10 stars aligned themselves into a single line, then they began to glow with fire before each of them expanded together, and exploding. From the depths of the Fire leapt an enormous creature, it body was made up of a huge reactor, long and bulky, sealed back behind two huge metal plates, its head looked similar to Power Tool Dragon, but much more vicious and feral, its arms were taken from Spell Reactor and were covered in sharp pieces of metal, and its legs from Summon Reactor and were also hardened and sharpened, behind it two huge winds flapped, one almost completely mechanical with the odd path of leathery skin appearing from behind metal, the other biological and living and a long spiked tail with a metallic tip swayed behind it. This was the ultimate fusion of Biology and Technology, with a Nuclear Reactor for a heart, to provide it with it with power, and a living soul of Fire. (2500/1400) It glared at the opposing dragon, it red eyes glowing with anger at seeing its nemesis in person, both dragons gave terrible shrieks or rage and of anger, but clawing at the air in a frenzy of anger, each waiting to claw the other to the death. “And now lets check out his effect, just like your Dragon he also gains Attack Points, 500 for each ‘Reactor’ in my Graveyard” The mechanical dragon ripped the plates on its chest apart, within raged the fires of a nuclear inferno, hotter than anything on Erath, 4 bright lights shot from Alex’s graveyard into it’s chest, the Flames inside began to heat up, from red to violent blue as the dragon closed the hatched, sealing back the inferno as its power increased and its limbs began to expand. (2500/1400) - (4500/1400) “Now that’s finished, Nuclear Reactor Dragon, attack your nemesis, Slime Dragon, with Atomic Impact Fury” The mechanical dragon rushed towards its opposite, hammering one mechanical fist into it’s face, knocking it back, as the other arm tore off one of its wings right at the root whilst the tail plunged into its chest, pinning it in place, then it opened its mouth, and unleashed the power of 100 Atomic bombs right in Slime Dragons face, although the Dragon looked worn and damaged, its face lit up with an evil grin as its wing began to re-grow, one slimy claw slammed into its chest, denting the two hatches, sending the mechanical dragon back a pace as its wound began to re-heal. “Now I’ll play Slime Dragons effect, so I’ll remove a monster from the game, to negate both his destruction and to negate the damage, meaning he gains even more Attack Points” (3600/2500) - (3900/2500) “Now our dragons are almost equal in power” Chris thought, “A few more attacks and I’ll surpass it, then victory will be mine!” “Now I’ll let you go Chris, now let us see who’s dragon is really the most powerful, and finish our duel from all those years ago, I end my turn” Chris - 8 Alex - 7 “Now I draw, and I’ll set 1 card, now Slime Dragon activate your third and final effect, now I can remove all of the monster in my Graveyard, which means my monster gains even more Attack Points” The huge dragon began to swell until it was bigger than its counter part, as half-a-dozen small slime monster flew from Chris’s Graveyard and were absorbed into its growing body, giving it even more power than its counter-part. (3900/2500) - (5100/2500) “Now Slime Dragon, let’s rid ourselves of the pair of them, attack with Ultimate Slime Force” Now it was Slime Dragons turn to attack, with slime dripping from every surface of its body it slammed into its opposite, repeatedly hammering it with its clawed hands, he pulled back its head and gave a huge raw before sending a massive volley of plasma straight into its chest, the two armoured plates began to buckle as the power assaults from both in inside outward and the outside inward began to take its toll. Then Slime Dragon recoiled, as if a recognition had begun to dawn in its eyes, something was wrong. Alex ducked as a massive volley of Plasma collided with his runner, almost throwing him off, but he held on and got his runner back under control. Alex: 2800 - 600 = 2200 Now he grinned, “Now Nuclear Reactor Dragon, activate your final, and most devastating effect, unleash Nuclear Armageddon Blast” The huge dragon nodded and grasped slime dragon by both of its winds, using one hand and a tail to pin it close to keep it from escaping, the final hand reached toward the metal sheets on its chest, Chris reached for a button on his runner, “I activate my trap card, S- what!” His trap card sparked suddenly, before it fused out and vanished, Alex smirked, “Did you really think a trap card was going to stop his effect, now Reactor Dragon, end this battle.” Slime Dragon began to squirm and struggle trying to break away and get free but it was too little too late, its counter-part tore the doors off as a massive blast ensured, both dragons and every card on the field was completely annihilated, both of Alex’s reactors exploded as did Chris’s failed face-down. “Now due to my Dragon’s effect, we each lose 100 lifepoints x the number of cards that were destroy, I count 5 cards, that’s 500 lifepoints.” Alex: 2200 - 500 = 1700 Chris: 800 - 500 = 300 “It doesn’t matter now Alex, now that you’re Offensive and Defensive Reactors are gone, I can attack or defend and be perfectly safe.” “That maybe true, but Offensive Reactor has a hidden ability, whenever you attacked and took damage due to its effect it gained 1 ‘Attack’ Counter, and when it’s destroyed due to a card effect, I get 1 ‘Attack’ token for every ‘Attack’ token that was on it at the time of its destruction, so rise my tokens” Two small machines appeared on Alex’s field, each one glowing slightly as there power seemed to wax and wane, they glowed blue symbolising that they were defending his lifepoints (0/0) Chris - 9 Alex - 8 “Now it’s my move Chri-” Alex touched the card on the top of his deck, a lance of pain shot up his arm, and the Hummingbird mark on his arm flared, as did the entire geoglyph it flickered, before exploding in an even more vicious fire, and his face, if it were even possible, turned even more vicious, “The Time has come Chris” he paused, savoring the emotions, the thrill, the sweet taste of vengeance, He raised the card he had just drawn into the air, and as he roared out its name a bolt of lightning, instantly followed by its thunder, the time had come, “Now I sacrifice my two tokens in order to Summon-” The two tokens began to glow, then they merged, forming a solid ball of colour which seemed to flicker and waver as it span into the sky, then it vanished, replaced with something else. It looked like a heart, made of stone and beating out a stony pulse like a real heart, each beast sounded like a dagger been drawn through flesh and bone. There was a sudden noise as hundreds of thousands of purple lights shot out from the ground, each one of them feeble, weak, useless alone, but together, together they could serve a greater purpose, the heart began to beat faster and faster as more and more lights flowed into its depths until the heart vanished a was replaced by an incandescent beam of purple light, the shot up wards from the ground, up, up into the heavens and beyond. “Now, it is come” Alex said, calmly, peacefully, nonchalently, as again he flung his arms wide in chant, but this was no cheap incantation for the sake of dramatic effect, Chris cringed as Alex’s eyes began to glow purple and the mark on his arm brightened until it was almost incandescent, “The sacrifice has been given, the chant is called, now come forth my Goddess, the Earthbound Lord, I sacrifice the Souls of the Weak, in order to bring thee forth, Earthbound God – Aslla Piscu” He placed the card on his duel-disk For a second, nothing happened, then the whole field gave another huge jolt and the entire geoglyph began to glow, brighter and brighter, there was a huge BOOM!, the sound of tearing earth and flesh and a huge shrill scream that could shatter glass as a massive explosion tore the ground in the very centre of the geoglyph apart as if it were nothing more than an inconvenience, and from the ground she rose. It hade a thin body, which wound itself into a huge beak, its eyes were strange and huge like giant beads, its wings consisted of four long lines joining at the pinion, at all glowed in a vibrant orange, and orange lines ran through its body, power radiated from that body, unnatural power. (2500/2500) Chris almost fainted, how could any monster be that big, and he had seen some BIG monsters in his time, but that thing was … there was no word to describe it, none in English at any rate. “And now this Duel Ends, Chris, Aslla Piscu, attack him directly, Wrath of the Hummingbird” The huge bird shrieked as it spread its wings, flying straight towards Chris, who at that point was panicking, he had no Spells, no Traps, even his Hand was devoid of any hope. The huge beak descended, and as it did so, he saw the look in the Birds eye, it was evil, pure, unrivalled Evil, it slammed into the ground, smashing the round to pieces and dragging its huge beak right in his direction. The impact and the rocks hit him before the beak did, sending him flying, up, up and somehow he managed to surpass the magical barrier which was meant to keep him inside of the arena, then he felt himself falling, falling, falling. Sending him crashing through something wooden, slowing descent slightly, he crashed into the ground. The impact was sudden and excruciatingly painful, pain throbbed through his entire body like a sudden bolt of lightning, it raised his head as pain shot from his leg, it was at that point that he realized why. His entire right leg had been impaled on a stake of wood that stuck out of the ground, leaving it clinging to the rest of his body by a few bloody veins and scraps of flesh, indeed he was surrounding by them, his irst though was relief, that would have been a nasty way to go, a stake through the heart.. Even thinking was beginning to hurry now , and it was almost unbearable. There was a flash of lightning , which lit up the area, out of his fading eyes he could see a figure watching, a sadistic smile playing about his place and the faint echoes of laughter could just reach his ears. The figure above him reached to his belt a pulled out something, he twisted it and a small red light began pulsating, he dropped it, and it fell, down, down, down, landing with a sharp clink!, on his injured leg, more pain shot through his body, a rescue beacon, people would come to help, eventually, Alex wanted him to survive. As the words came down to him, laden with spite. “I’ll see you at the Fortune Cup, Traitor” Then the figure vanished from view, Chris coughed, causing more pain to arc through his body, how long could he survive in this state, a few hours at the most, but that card … it’s power, could he face it again, knowing what it could do? ----- So it seems Chris has received some of his punishment, but with more to follow, next chapter we get back to the Fortune Cup, and with some surprising results indeed, here is today’s Card, Alex’s Ace Dragon Card, its importance along with it’s connection to Slime Dragon will be explored as we go along, so tune in text time for Yu-Gi-Oh 5D’s.
