Yu-gi-oh! Infinity Gathering Tournament!

[Admiral_Stalfos19]

(OoC Notes: Decietful King, the original host of this RP, has been absent for some time, so I, the co-host, have decided to kick-start it for him, since it was meant to be started ages ago. I also have temporary control Infinity and Reaper for the time being, if only to get the ball rolling. Anyway, you can still sign up by [url="http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/262560-yu-gi-oh-infinity-gathering-tournament/"]clicking here[/url].)
[center][center][spoiler=The Plot, in case any refreshments are in order]Society was great in the city of Toshedo, people were happy with each other and dueling was the basis of this happiness. But soon it would all be disrupted; an evil tyrant that only goes by the name of Infinity came in to the city and sent only one duelist to over throw the government of Toshedo. He quickly struck fear with his faithful servant without a name; people soon became terrified to even pick up a duel disk. After the servant's many misdeeds he came to be known as Reaper. The people lived in fear and soon adapted to the rules set by the dictator. People that didn't raise in rebellion were content about how Infinity let them be. About 50 years passed and the tyrant's servant became old and senile whilst the tyrant himself seemed to have infinite youth because it seemed hid did not grow a day older.
[/center][/center]
[center][center]People began to suspect if the Tyrant was a demon sent to destroy them while others just didn't care and were fine with the rules set. A a gorilla team of duelist formed to destroy the tyrant's government and began doing research on the tyrant. After some time they learned that he would continue aging after losing a duel so they planned to finish them off their selves. After many failed attempts to duel the old servant and get to the king they conspired to kill off the old man. Again failing again they just hopped that Reaper would die of old age.
[/center][/center]
[center][center]Since the rebellion quieted down, Reaper fears for his master's life. So he constructs a tournament of the best duelist in Toshedo, The Infinity Gathering Tournament! He says he will reveal the rules after all participants are found.
[/center][/center]
[center][center]Now with that being said are you a part of the rebellion entering the tournament to finally taste freedom? Or are your plans to gain power beyond your wildest dreams and protect the man of evil? I hope to find out soon.[/spoiler]

[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#FF8C00]"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome all to the Infinity Gathering Tournament!"[/color][color=#000000] a mysterious man by the name of Reaper had greeted a gargantuan audience of persons in the city hall of Toshedo, [/color][color=#FF8C00]"I will be hosting this tournament under the watchful eye of our leader Infinity, and I do hope you enjoy the tournament. The rules are simple, and will be revealed when we have the required amount of participants. Speaking of which, you may sign up at the counter over there. Sign-ups will close at 24 hours from now, in which the tournament will begin. I wish you all with good luck and um... that's all I have to say for now."[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#000000]With that, everyone started to move towards the counter provided. As they did so, Reaper went up the stairs to speak with the tyrant of this kingdom, that being none other than Infinity.[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#ff8c00]"It has begun,"[/color][color=#000000] Reaper informed.[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#800000]"Good, now we find those that would oppose us... and destroy them before they can quash my reign over this eyesore of a civilization,"[/color][color=#000000] was the only response from the tyrant.[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#000000]Meanwhile, at the counter, police had just spotted Sora Bozica emerge from the crowd, and moved in in an attempt to catch up to her. She had a growing list of criminal records from two years ago, and since then, they've been wanting to catch up with her for some time.[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#000000]"I'm afraid we can't let you go any further, Miss Bozica," one of the police officer informed her, "You still have unserved charges to account for,"[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#800080]"But... this means a lot to me,"[/color][color=#000000] Sora said in a weak-sounded tone.[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#000000]"You should've thought of that before being such a naughty girl, lady," a second officer chuckled, "Tell you what, we'll let you go ahead if you can come up enough money to pay all the infractions you've been committing lately. How does that sound?"[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#800080]"That... sounds... too good to be true,"[/color][color=#000000] Sora admitted, knowing there had to be some form of catch involved somewhere along the line, [/color][color=#800080]"How much will it cost me?"[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#000000]"Let's see, you have several counts of theft, desecration of property, a few more of this and that," the officer calculated a few things in his head and did some number crunching before coming up with a grand total, "That'll be $35,832.09."[/color]
[/left][/left]
[left][left][color=#800080]"I... I can't pay that much!"[/color][color=#000000] Sora exclaimed, before clasping her hands together and getting down on her knees, tears streaming down her cheeks, [/color][color=#800080]"I'm s-s-s-sorry, I really am! Please, just... just let me through! I... I'll do anything! Anything at all! Please! I'm begging you!"[/color][/left][/left]

[CNo.101 S.H. Death Knight]

After the announcement that declared the start of registration, soon it will lead to several struggles of fights. However it make no difference to Fenik in how long he have to fight in situations like this, he had experienced eternity, events like this or others are the only things can temporarily quell his fear of boredom.

[color=#b22222]While at the line-up to the counter, he can wait for them to move on without a urge of rushing, he look around calm yet aloof. He arrived at the counter as he readied to register. The clerk woman asked, "Your name please?" Fenik Responded, "Shinsei, Fenik." "Birth date?", She continued. Fenik choked a little when he heard "Birth date" and he never seem to get used to it since it's a touchy issue for him. "Uhhh... January 11, 2114..." He gave her an answer that is by far an obvious lie. The clerk woman nodded gently, "Ok, just give me a minute." Fenik joked nervously, "Heck you can eve buy eternity off me." [i]Why the tarnation i say that? [/i]The woman chuckled at his joke. "There you're in, so enjoy." She said with a bright smile. [i]Enjoy? Enjoy what? The terror? Heh, even that term is ironic...[/i][/color]

[color=#b22222]Shortly after he turn away form the counter, even in the crowd he notice a girl down on her knees, sobbing while a police looking down on her. Of course, he can tell the form of crying that is distressed, after countless cries from every generation he lived through, he learns as many form of them as possible. He sighed as he walking up to the police. He chuckled halfheartedly, "My my, shamelessly cornering a kid, are we?" [/color]


[color=#0000cd]A blue hairs young woman in awkward clothing of black battle suit as well she wear dark blue cloak as in rather making her awkward she'd be suspicious instead. She reach to the counter, surprisingly she seem to know what she doing. The woman clerk asked for the name and then she reply the question as "Kuroe Asunagami" . then she ask for the birth date. "Uh... I was "born" few days ago..." she said awkwardly. The woman clerk burst into laughter thinking it was some kind of joke. She said with a little of seriousness, "Actually, I'm serious..." the woman Clerk awkwardly input the data of her birth date as in "few days ago" then the Clerk bid her farewell with a smile of course she tend to thin her encounters are getting weirder.[/color]

[color=#0000cd]Kuroe walk away to cafeteria then sit by a table, She let out a sigh. Socializing with humans wasn't her forte, She only here to participate while to observe the unfolding events. but wether or not the human world can quell the un-stability of the balance then the Cosmic World will be forced to repel the evil then overtake the Human World to fortify it so the balance can be secured. Kuroe lean on the table while watching the people come and go, the atmosphere seem gentle but still uneasy and alert. [/color]

[Admiral_Stalfos19]

[color=#000000]Both police officers completely ignored the kid, being too busy arguing with each other on what to do with Sora. The male of the two insisted on just letting her go on the condition that she could come up a remotely buy-able explanation for all this, whilst the female was seriously considering taking her to court. Eventually, the male officer decided to distract the female one, before helping Sora up and letting her move on towards the counter.[/color]

[color=#000000]"You have no right to interrupt a police investigation like that!" the female officer was now berating the kid, unaware that she actually fell for the distraction hook, line and sinker, "You could've caused serious trouble just then!"[/color]

[color=#000000]Meanwhile, as the officer carried on, Sora proceeded up to the counter. The clerk was just about to ask for her name, but upon seeing her, she decided to do a little something else.[/color]

[color=#000000]"Security," she requested through an intercom.[/color]

[color=#000000]"WHAT THE HELL'S WRONG WITH YOU WOMEN??!!" the male officer shouted at a distance, "SHE'S FINE!!"[/color]

[color=#000000]Rolling her eyes, the clerk filled in the details, already knowing Sora's full name and date of birth.[/color]

[color=#000000]"Just testing the intercom..." the clerk started.[/color]

[color=#800080]"Yeah, sure you were!"[/color][color=#000000] Sora intervened coldly, before leaving again.[/color]

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

As the woman, the clerk, and the guards argued, a young woman in a pink and black cloak walked in, though no one noticed her enter. She walked past the clerk, and turned her head slightly so she made eye contact with the clerk. The clerk immediately had a memory planted into her head that this woman had signed up before, and had a surprisingly clean record. If the clerk then checked the database to make sure, she would find the data she would be looking for. The officers, if they turned to face the woman, would be confronted by the presence of something sweet and innocent, testing their loyalty and morality. After all, it would be hard for anyone decent to harm a cute, kind young woman like this one.
As the woman proceeded, she took off her hood to reveal reddish-brown hair and blue eyes that glinted gold in the right light. Her name was Rei Tousen, and she had a very strange gift.

[Xaqairy]

Ahalail walks up to the counter just after the clerk had called security. It seemed weird to him that the clerk just let the girl in front of him go after calling. As the girl continued into the waiting area, he walked up to the clerk's desk.

"Name, please," the clerk asked him. "[color=#ff0000]Ahalail.[/color]" "And your birthday?" "[color=#ff0000]Um . . . I'm not really sure. I think it was a little less than 20 years ago.[/color]" "Huh. Fine. Just continue." As he left, she said "We have a few weird people at this tournament."

In the holding room, Ahalail found a corner that he could work in. He took out a microchip from his pocket and started tinkering with it.

[evilfusion]

Ben's registration took barely more than a few moments. The blonde haired young man had an impeccably clean record, and all the information that was required at the top of his head. Compared to the previous entrants, the man seemed like a [i]normal[/i] person. Continuing away from the registration counter, Ben mulled over his decision in his mind. Was it risky to enter such a tournament? Something like this could put a damper on his clean record, but in truth, he didn't care that much. He was loyal to this city, and had no doubt that at least one of the entrants would not share this loyalty. Those individuals would have to deal with him if they wanted to profess their rebellious attitudes.

He sighed and shook his head. Now wasn't the time to worry. The tournament could be fun, in addition to whatever prize might await the winner.

[ruga650]

Ruga walked up to the counter. He quickly explained everything as a raven flew from his shoulder and looked around. He walks away when he was finished and the raven landed on his shoulder. [color=#800080]"Oh? How many? Hmmmmm... Seems like we have some competition..." [/color]He looks around and chuckles. [color=#800080]"This is gonna be fun... Let's see if we can't make these people dragon chow." [/color]He looks at the bird and chuckles. Several people looked at Ruga, obviously thinking he was crazy for talking to a raven. [color=#800080]"But lets see if we can't make some friends before-hand. Shall we, Arma?"[/color] He walks around a bit before coming across Kuroe. He snickers and hands Arma a small bucket. [color=#800080]"Here. Have you full." [/color]He walks over and holds a 'claw' out to Kuroe. [color=#800080]"Good day, madame. I am Ruga Aih Qwarrcall, but some people call me the Dragonborn. And who may you be?"[/color]

[CNo.101 S.H. Death Knight]

Fenik was twitching a little on his left eye when he got yelled at just from approaching. Though the other police left the girl off to the counter to register, obviously there reasons that the male police went soft on her. Of course the Woman police proceed do the opposite, as Fenik did overheard a bit of the argument.

[color=#b22222]"Tch... Such hostility, I could report you for such attitude, heh"[/color], He shrugged [color=#b22222]"However, distressing a young girl to her corner rather seem unjustly even if she does something wrong... Sadly, in my days, police remain to be in manners even in due time, compare to you kid."[/color] Being said with slight payback from hostility. Fenik deem to be ready in what would come next of those police.

As Kuroe was startle by such a shady person with a creepy looking crow with red eyes on his shoulder. [color=#0000cd]"I-I'm Kuroe Asunagami, I just recently got here..."[/color] She introduced nervously. Shortly she recomposed herself after that startle. [color=#0000cd]"Perhaps, there is something you want?"[/color] She asked Politely.

[ruga650]

Ruga snickers. [color=#800080]"I'm just trying to make acquaintances."[/color] He looks at Arma as she flies over and pecks at the empty bucket, seemingly eating it. [color=#800080]"Of course..."[/color] He chuckles lightly and looks back at Kuroe. [color=#800080]"You know, Kuroe, it's not easy to trust people... Especially when you're in the middle of a competition..."[/color] He snickers. [color=#800080]"Maybe we can make an alliance? It would increase our odds."[/color] He smiles and Arma goes back onto his shoulder, shaking her head to make the last piece of metal go down her throat. [color=#800080]"Enjoy your meal? Good." [/color]Arma stares at Kuroe and blinks before flying over and perching on her shoulder. [color=#800080]"I see Arma likes you... Be gentle with her."[/color] He places his hand on his chin and smiles. [color=#800080]"Now that I think of it, if you agree to an alliance, we can use Arma here as a means of communication. Have her send each other messages in case we end up out of each others reach."[/color] He laughs lightly and smiles.

[Admiral_Stalfos19]

[color=#000000]The police woman was left in a state of shock, dumbfounded about what this guy had said and unable to figure out what to do. She didn't even know whether to take what he just said seriously.[/color]

[color=#000000]"Me? Kid?! I'm older than you!" she stuttered, "And you can't just tell people how to do their own jobs like that either; that's just... that's just... WHAT THE F***??!!"[/color]

[color=#000000]Everyone turned their attention to the police woman, who couldn't handle the awkwardness of the scenario any more. Not saying another word, she left the scene. Noting this, Sora turned to the guy.[/color]

[color=#800080]"Thank you, I... no, I can't accept this," [/color][color=#000000]Sora shook her head in disbelief, [/color][color=#800080]"I don't know what kind of idealism you had for trying to save me like that, but... in the real world, we get what's coming to us... whether we like it or not."[/color]

[color=#000000]As she said those last few words, tears started to form in Sora's eyes again.[/color]

[color=#800080]"I know I don't sound appreciative of you, and..."[/color][color=#000000] she paused in an attempt to fight back the tears, but to no avail, [/color][color=#800080]"...and for that, I'm sorry. But... you see... I'm... I'm just a burden to society, I deserved to suffer through... that whole thing."[/color]

[CNo.101 S.H. Death Knight]

Fenik turns to her, then chuckled. [color=#b22222]"I won't ask what you have done or I care if you're a burden to a society, but when i see something unsightly as that, I just silence it because i can't seem to turn my back on things, it's just how I am..."[/color] He stated. [color=#b22222]"I won't say much about sufferings however, we're already suffering because the reality was swayed from its path a lot longer before Infinity came, perhaps two generations ago... So this is why we are experiencing this.... The Devil smiled at us, heh." [/color][color=#000000]He walk up to her then pat on her head. [/color][color=#b22222]"There no need for you to accept it, because there isn't anything to accept."[/color][color=#000000] He smiled gently then walk forward pass her. [/color]


[color=#000000]Kuroe Thinks deeply of Ruga's offer, then she shook her head. [/color][color=#0000cd]"No thanks, This isn't something I'm to involve with, not at least that what my lords gave me words."[/color][color=#000000] She declined. She rise from her sit then begin to pass by the shady person. [/color]

[ruga650]

Ruga nods as Kuroe stands. [color=#800080]"I see. I'm not gong to force you."[/color] He bows as she walks off and Arma flies off her shoulder. Ruga sits down on a bench as Arma flies over and lands in front of Sora and stares at her. Arma walked forward and 'jumps' up, perching on the woman's shoulder. Ruga removes a black book with a purple hourglass on the front cover and a silver one on the back cover and opens it, reading it. It is unknown what he is reading, considering the book had no title and no familiar design. [color=#800080]"I wonder where that bird went..."[/color]

[evilfusion]

Ben sat down at a table, silently observing everyone around him. It seemed like a good time to at least try to scout out the competition, and figure out who he wanted to crush and who he could befriend. It had been almost forever since he had last had a good duel. But judging from the registration line, half the people were notoriously weird, which automatically made it unlikely he'd find anyone worth socializing with before the tournament tomorrow. Still, it was worth a shot, to at least wait around and see what was up.

He extracted his deck from its box and thumbed through his cards at lightning speed. He knew the deck front to back, knew his combos, knew the strategy better than he knew the city itself.

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Rei noticed the man sitting around, and she decided that it might be the best possible course of action to interact with him. She walked over to him and sat down across from him, watching him shuffle his deck until she finally asked him in a soft voice. [color=#FF69B4]"Excuse me, but I was wondering something..."[/color] She seemed rather hesitant to ask this. [color=#FF69B4]"Mister Benjamin Desmond, I wanted to know the reason...why you fight against the Resistance...What do you seek to gain from fighting against them? Why should someone fight against the Resistance with you?"[/color] She didn't explain how she knew his name, but simply watched him, waiting for a response.

[evilfusion]

Ben stiffened noticeably when his name was mentioned and he looked up at the woman addressing him. He could not recall off the top of his head whether he had ever seen her before, yet she seemed to not only know his full name, but also was asking why he was loyal to the king who had ruled the city before he was even born, as if that stance was absurd.

"The answer to that is rather simple. A resistance by its very nature is going against the grain, seeking some way to disrupt the rules and peace of whatever it is aiming to oppose. It is why protests can get violent, and why rioting can occur. Loyalty is fast becoming a rare trait," he answered, returning his gaze to his cards while he spoke and flicking his pale eyes to look at her when he had finished.

"A better question is why someone should resist. Fighting a resistance is all about keeping peace. Joining a resistance is finding the motive to fight what is the norm, threatening the way of life that has been held for decades, and possibly causing an entire system to collapse for some ambiguous higher ground. In that case, the reason someone else should fight the 'Resistance' is that they are, last I checked, becoming akin to nuisances or even terrorists for a cause that is unneeded."

[ruga650]

Ruga couldn't help but overhear Ben and Rei. Even through the distance and side conversations, his somewhat heightened senses let him hear in on quite a large number of people. He snickers as he hears Rei's comment about fighting for the king. [i][color=#800080]'So, i'm not alone in my cause... This will be good...' [/color][/i]He closes his book and stands. He walks closer to them, but leans on a wall and keeps reading, as if he simply moved because the bench was hurting him or some other reason. Arma flies away from Sora and lands where she belongs on Ruga's shoulder. She stares at Ben and Rei and tilts her head. She 'jumps' down and 'walks' over to them and stares up at them, her pure red eyes seemingly looking through them. [color=#800080]"Arma. Come back here. You should never stare."[/color]

[Xaqairy]

[size=4][font=times new roman,times,serif]"[color=#800080]Arma. Come back here. You should never stare.[/color]" This caused Ahalail to look up. He recognized the name, but realized it was just a couple of "Dragunity" cards that had that name.[/font][/size]
[size=4][font=times new roman,times,serif]"[color=#ff0000][i]I wonder,[/i][/color]" Ahalail thought. "[color=#ff0000][i]What types of decks are here for this tournament?[/i][/color]" He stands up and begins to look around.[/font][/size]
[size=4][font=times new roman,times,serif]He notices three people on the other side of the room. One seems like he's reading an unmarked book, the other two - a guy and a girl - are in a conversation and don't really seem to notice the reader. He sees a girl sitting at a table by herself. He was sure there were two or three more contestants, but he didn't see them in the room.[/font][/size]
[size=4][font=times new roman,times,serif]He wanted to go see if the girl that was sitting by herself wanted to duel, but there was something about her that didn't feel quite right. "[i][color=#ff0000]The guy with the book doesn't look like he's really into it. Maybe I should ask him.[/color][/i]" He walks over to [Ruga] him. "[color=#ff0000]Hey, I'm Ahalail. Do you wanna duel? I don't really feel like waiting for the tournament to start. I'm starting to get a little anxious.[/color]"[/font][/size]

[ruga650]

Ruga looks over and sneers. He thinks for a bit. [color=#800080][i]'Maybe a duel will lead those two off of me thinking i'm spying on their conversation...'[/i][/color] He shrugs and reaches behind him. [color=#800080]"I don't see why not. My dragons were starving anyway..." [/color]He removes his Duel Disk from his back and snickers. [color=#800080]"Let's see if you can last!" [/color]He snaps it onto his arm. [color=#800080]"This will be fun. Arma." [/color]Arma ruffles her feathers and flies off, finding a nice perch on a nearby lamppost. Ruga removes his Deck from a green scaly deck holder with a dragon's eye on the flap and the front and back of the actual case showing a red hourglass which was the same as the book he was reading. [color=#800080]"Shall we begin?"[/color]

[Xaqairy]

Ahalail takes off his backpack and takes his duel disk out. He takes the chip from his pocket and inserts it into the disk. "[color=#ff0000][i]What a perfect way to test this chip. I just hope it works now.[/i][/color]"
He clamps his disk onto his left arm and pulls his beck out of his pack as well. "[color=#ff0000]As challenger, I'll start this duel off. I'll start by Summoning '[url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Disciple_of_the_Forbidden_Spell"]Disciple of the Forbidden Spell[/url]'.[/color]" A Warrior with a katana appears before him. "[color=#ff0000]Since it's the first turn and I have no Grave, his effect is nullified.[/color]" "[color=#ff0000]Now I'll Set two cards and end my turn.[/color]"

[ruga650]

Ruga chuckles. He draws a card and looks at it. [color=#800080]"Ah yes... This will do nicely... I'll place this one monster face-down and then i'll set two more cards face-down as well." [/color]Three cards appear in front of him. He snickers and looks at his hand more. [color=#800080]"Not much else I can do here. Your move."[/color] He places his hand on his chin and ponders. [i][color=#800080]'What kind of Deck could this be... From this one card, I can depict Warrior, LIGHT, Destruction, and somewhat of Graveyard Control... Meh... I can't tell from one card only. Let's see what else he pulls out.' [/color][/i]He chuckles. [color=#800080]"Go ahead. Try and impress me."[/color] He spoke with a evil tone, yet he also sounded and looked...bored... As if he knows what is going to happen. Arma watches more before 'yawning' and moving over to besides Rei and Ben, looking at them.

[Xaqairy]

"[i][color=#ff0000]Hmm. That doesn't help me much at all. So far he's on the defensive. He doesn't look like the kind of guy to do that for long, though.[/color][/i]"

"[color=#ff0000]All right, then. I draw. Heh. I'll discard my '[url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Magna_Drago"]Magna Drago[/url]' to Special Summon '[url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Power_Giant"]Power Giant[/url]' from my hand.[/color]" A colorful gem-giant appeared. "[color=#ff0000]Do you have anything to counter that?[/color]"

[ruga650]

Ruga sighs. [color=#800080]"I'll use Coffin Seller. Now every time Monsters are sent to you take 300 damage."[/color] He yawns and looks at his hand, still looking bored. [color=#800080]"You have the floor again."[/color] He watches his opponent carefully, wondering what he will do next in his mind, but keeps his tone and look like he as knows his opponent's moves already. [color=#800080][i]'Okay... Now i'm seeing something more of a Beat-Down Deck... This gem is a 2200 attacker, Disciple is 1700, and Magna Drago gains 200 ATK every time he burns something. But I need to see more cards to fully understand his Deck...'[/i][/color]

[Xaqairy]

"[i][color=#ff0000]That 'Coffin Seller' is gonna hurt quite a bit.[/color][/i][color=#ff0000] Ok, then. I'll enter Battle Phase. I'll attack with 'Disciple' first.[/color]"
The warrior moves in for the kill.


OOC: RP duels aren't that bad.

[ruga650]

Ruga watches as Disciple swings his sword down on a red dragon with armor on it's body and a mask. [color=#800080]"I'll use Masked Dragon's effect... When he is killed by battle, I can Special Summon a Dragon with 1500 or less ATK from my Deck. I'll use this effect to Special Summon a second Masked Dragon in Defense Mode." [/color]The same dragon appears, but is curled up into almost a ball-like shape with it's wings hopelessly covering itself. [color=#800080]"You may continue."[/color]

[Xaqairy]

"[i][color=#ff0000]Dragons, huh. That's a little more like it. '[/color][/i][color=#ff0000]Power Giant', take out his Dragon.[/color]" Ahalail sneers as if in early victory.
