krypt12 Posted July 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 CHAPTER 6: THOSE EYES… I decided to head back to my room after that. I was too tired and pressured with all of this information and bad duel timing. The next day I headed to Chancellor Sheppard’s office to have a talk about some of the things that went down the day before.“Hey, uh, Chancellor, I know you’re not gonna believe me when I say this, but…yesterday I dueled someone and they burst into a black cloud. Also, I had a vision of destruction. The destruction of a very important place that has tons of history there – Domino City. I didn’t see anything bad happening to this place, but you never know when – ““Hey there, slow down, there’s no rush. I’ll have an administrator do something about it.”“But…”“It’s okay Sukasa, now just move along. Have a good day now.” I said nothing further and walked away. “Not again…not again…we just had this place overrun by the Society of Light. And now this. Was he serious about the vision?”“Chancellor,” said an assistant. “We’ve had several reports of missing students on the island.”“(Chancellor) What?! This isn’t good. This isn’t good at all.” I walked away from his office thinking that he thought I was crazy. I didn’t think anyone else would believe me, so I went to class. During the entire time that I was in class, all that I could think of, was Crow vanishing, and that weird vision. I was so deep in thought, that I missed my entire lesson. After class was over, I decided to head over to the Duel Field and watch some Duels. But when I got there… Man #1: 2300Man #2: 4000“(Man #1) I summon Ice Fairy in attack mode (ATK/1800/DEF/1500). Now I equip her with Ice Pedestal. This raises her attack by 800 points. Also, when she attacks, you can’t activate any spells or traps until she’s done.”“(Man #2) Crap! My trap is useless, and my Ha Des isn’t strong enough to take that thing down.“(Man #1) not done. I play the field spell: Beneath the Ice. This increases all ‘Ice’ monsters by 500 ATK and DEF.” The field seemed to be entirely under ice. As if we were in the Arctic. “Also, your monsters can’t attack nor apply their effects during the turn they are summoned. So my Fairy’s ATK is at 3100. Now, my Fairy, attack his Dark Ruler Ha Des! Blizzard Rush! I’ll set one card. I end my turn.”Man #1: 2300Man #2: 3350“(Man #2) my turn. Hmm…I activate Fissure! This destroys the monster on your field with the lowest ATK, but since you only have 1 monster, it’s destroyed.” At that moment, the ground on Man #1’s side split open and the fairy flew up looking confused. Then, a large hand came from within the newly made hole, grabbed the fairy’s foot and dragged her down fast, closing the ground behind her. “Now I remove Dark Ruler Ha Des, Mask of Darkness, Giant Germ, and Winged Kuriboh from play to Special Summon: Sky Scourge Norleras.” A large Black, white and gray gate with barbed wire surrounding it, rose from the Ground giving off an omen of ill-will. It rose so very slowly, that one would get a chill up their spine just from looking at it. It finally came to a stop and opened. Darkness slowly came through the gate like an aura seeping out of one’s soul. Then it came. Red claws. White fingers. Black hands with wraps on the fore-arms came through. Then the fiend came all the way through the gate showing its taunting spikes, large black wings, and wraps covering its’ mid-section. It had a skull for a face with a horn sticking out through the forehead. “Now I activate Mystical Space Typhoon on your field spell. And now I’ll use Norleras’s effect. By paying 1000 life points…”Man #1: 2300Man #2: 3350 => 2350“…I can destroy every card on the field, and discard every in our hands to the Graveyard to draw 1 card,” he said smiling. The fiend leaned backwards, opening its’ mouth and spreading its’ wings as if it were about to unleash something huge. It did. Darkness spewed from its mouth and from his body as well, destroying everything on the field, and in their hands. “Now I draw my card. Heh-heh. I summon Asura Priest in attack mode! He may leave the field once my turn’s done, but I can take you out quicker. Now I attack you directly! BARRAGE OF HOLY FISTS!!!” Man #1: 600Man #2: 2350The attack did not seem to affect Man #1. It just blew his hair back. That’s was when I noticed them. His eyes. One blue. One green. Those eyes. It was him! From my vision!“(Sukasa) IT WAS YOU!!!” I had to calm myself down. He looked back at me and snarled at me, as if he knew me…but how?“(Man #1) It’s my turn. Since I don’t have any Spell or Trap cards present on the field, I can special summon Treeborn Frog from my Grave. Now I’ll tribute him to summon Mobius, the Frost Monarch in attack him directly and finish this duel! Avalanche-Frost Punch!”“Aagh... darn. I lost…~sigh~ oh well.”Man #1: 600Man #2: 0 It looked like it was an intense, but short duel. I was still kind of shocked of seeing the man from my vision before my eyes. Right at that moment, the chancellor spoke over the P.A. “Attention students. Due to mysterious recent activity on the island, all students are to report to their dorms immediately. This is not a drill. All students are to report to their dorms now, but if you have to be elsewhere, it is recommended that you do not travel unaccompanied. Please, take a friend with you. That is all.” The students in the duel field area began to murmur. I looked around for the student with the different colored eyes, but he was nowhere to be seen. I began to head out when I saw Jaden, Syrus, Hassleberry, and Alexis Standing by the door, so I headed in their direction.“(Sukasa) Hey guys! Do you have any clue as to what’s going on?”“(Alexis & Syrus) No.”“(Jaden) Me either. But I know im gonna find out!”“(Syrus) Aww, come on Jay, the chancellor seemed serious. Maybe we should just head back.“(Jaden) I guess it wouldn’t hurt to sit this one out.”“(Sukasa) do you guys mind if I walk home with you?”“(Hassleberry) What the heck ya askin’ for soldier? We live in the same dorm. Slifer-red.”“I forgot.” We headed out and Alexis parted ways with us along with two of her friends. I still did not see the student. When we arrived at the dorm, Jaden invited me to their dorm again. “(Syrus) So Sukasa, what’s your most favorite card in your deck?”“Uhh…the Dark Crusader.”“I love all my roids.” “Cool.” All day, I had a minor headache that was beginning to worsen and bug me. I left out of the room to get some air on the balcony. Even though the Red dorm was very cramped and had many things wrong with it that would drive someone crazy, it has a wonderful view of the ocean. I stood there glaring at the waves slowly coming and the sun glistening on the ocean’s back. It was beautiful. This was the only thing about the dorm that I liked— the view. I rested my elbows on the rail comfortably, so that they wouldn’t bother me as much as pain-wise goes. I stood on the balcony until the sun began to slowly set. The ocean was beautiful. I glared at the blue ripples that were mixed with the orange from the setting sun’s glow. I was mesmerized. Then I heard footsteps coming upstairs. I looked back and saw a girl with black hair, which was in two long bangs in front with a short one covering her forehead, and hair that went down her back. She also wore a clip in her hair that resembled a strange looking bird; one of which I had never seen. She had dark-tan skin, and wore a black tank-top, a black skirt, and wore long black boots that go half-way up her thighs. I blushed. She cleared her throat knowing that I was looking at her.“uh-uh-uh-i-i-i…sorry for staring. It’s just…that…that outfit is…kinda…do you go to the academy?”“Yes.” Her voice seemed like a tropic-islander. “I am from the island 3 miles west.”“Oh. I didn’t know that there was an island close by.”“Yeah.” She brushed the hair behind her right ear back and looked me straight in the eye. But…her eyes…they were sort-of like a neon green color. When she looked at me, they seemed to glow. “People call me Nephie.”“Im Sukasa. It’s nice to meet you Nephie.”“You too, Sukasa. So, the people on this, what do they do for fun?”“We uh, duel with Yu-Gi-oh cards. It’s a game where you have your own monsters and-““You play the game with the cards? I love to play! Would you like to play now? Just a quick little match? Hmm?”“Uh, sure.” We walked downstairs and put a distance between ourselves and I pulled out my duel disk. “Hey Nephie. Do you need a duel disk?”“Oh, me? No, thank you. I have my own.” She pulled out and old-fashioned disk. But hers was yellow. Kind of like a yellow highlighter. It was the exact same color as the clip in her hair. “Sukasa, I shall go first.”“Okay.”“(Both) Duel!”Nephie: 4000Sukasa: 4000“I will draw. I set a monster face down. It is your turn.”“All right. I draw. I activate the field spell: Clock Tower Prison and I activate D-spirit! If there isn’t a Destiny Hero face up on the field, I can special summon a level 4 or lower one from my hand! I’ll Special summon Destiny Hero – Dunker in attack position. Now I summon Dark Crusader and discard the remaining 2 cards in my hand (D-Hero – Disk Commander & D-hero – Blade Master) to the Graveyard to increase his ATK up to 2400! Now I’ll attack with Destiny Hero – Dunker! Destroy her face down!” Dunker held his hand out and created a beam of energy that condensed into a ball that he spiked at the face-down (Hand of Nephthys [ATK/ 600/DEF/ 600]). “Now, Crusader! Strike her directly!” “Ehhmmm…Is that all you have?”Nephie: 1600Sukasa: 4000“I end my turn.”“My turn. I draw. You know Sukasa…it’s not good to waste your hand.” “My Prison gets a counter during your standby phase. If there happens to be 4 on it, I don’t take any damage.”“Anyway, I summon The Creator Incarnate in attack mode, now I’ll use his effect and tribute him to Special summon: The Creator in Defense position!” The sun shined to it’s brightest in a matter of seconds, and the clouds around it began to disappear, revealing The Creator descending from the heavens. “Now I’ll discard one card from my hand to activate Lightning Vortex.” Lightning had begun to rain down on the field destroying every monster on my field. “And now Sukasa, I’ll use The Creator’s ability; I pick a monster in my Graveyard – The Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys, discard a card, and Special Summon it.” She smiled when she said that. I stared at her wondering what she was smiling about. Then, a shadow crept up behind me. I turned around to see The Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys rise from behind my dorm, blocking out the now once-again setting sun. it flew over my head making me sweat just from it passing by. “Now Sukasa, I attack you directly! Phoenix Wing Blast! (ATK/2400/DEF/1600)”“Aaghh!”Nephie: 1600Sukasa: 1600“I end my turn.”“I draw. ~Yes! I drew Defender. ~ Okay, I set one monster and end my turn.”“I draw.”“The Tower now has two counters”“I understand. I summon the Herald of Creation (ATK/1800/DEF/ 600) in attack mode. Now I use The Creator’s effect once more. I’ll discard this card to bring back myself…”“Huh?”“Sukasa, I am known as…the Hand of Nephthys. I serve, protect, and summon The Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys. It was my duty from birth, but that is not the reason I am here today. I shall reveal my true form to you later. But for right now, we will finish this test. I Special summon the Hand of Nephthys from the Graveyard! Now I activate Soul Exchange. If I were to tribute a monster, I can tribute one of your monsters instead. Now I’ll use her effect! By tributing her and another monster – your face-down, I can summon the Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys from my hand or deck! Rise Nephthys!” It was magnificent. The Creator surrounded by two divine Phoenixes and a Herald staring me down. “But because of Soul Exchange, I cannot attack. So it’s your turn”“Amazing. Oh, I draw. Hmmm…I activate the Spell card: Dark Eruption! This allows me return 1 DARK monster with 1500 ATK or less from Graveyard to my hand. I choose my Dunker. And now I set 1 monster face down and end my turn.”“I draw and your Tower has 3 counters. I’ll use The Creator’s effect once more. I discard this to bring a monster I discarded earlier; Gilford The Lightning! (ATK/2800/DEF/1400) In attack position! Now my First Phoenix, Attack his monster! Phoenix Wing Blast!” The bird rose up, spreading its wings and launched a Blazing Wing Blast. Defender flipped up (DEF/2700), who bared all of the fire on his arms, sent an ember back at Nephie and stopped the attack.Nephie: 1300Sukasa: 1600“Sukasa, it has been fun. Gilford, destroy Defender! Thunder Slash! Now…SACRED PHOENIX OF NEPHTHYS…ATTACK HIM DIRECTLY!!! BLAZE-WING BLAST!!!!” The phoenix rose in the air, spread its magnificent wings and burned brighter than an exploding star and fanned its wings.“AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!”Nephie: 1300Sukasa: 0“Good duel Sukasa,” she said reaching her hand out to help me up.“Thanks, you too, but I lost.”“Winning isn’t everything, Sukasa.” I got up.“Come with me.” She pulled me around to the back of the dorm where the cliff was. “this is my true form.” She pulled her clip out of her hair and tossed it up in the air. Armor that was the same color as the phoenix came out of it, thus revealing herself as the Hand of Nephthys. “One last thing before I leave. The color will guide you. Oh! And one other thing. I want you to have my deck.”“What? But that’s yours. What am I gonna need it for?”“You rely on one card. That is not always good. But that does not matter. I want you to practice with this deck. You don’t have to make this your main deck, but you will see that all the right cards come at the right times. You’ll see.” She leaned forward and kissed me on the cheek. Then she went to the edge of the cliff, faced me, held her arms out and intentionally fell backwards.“Wait! NO!” I tried to reach for her but she was gone. She wasn’t even in sight. That was when a phoenix flew straight up in the air right beside the cliff. She was riding it. She waved ‘good-bye’ and flew off into the sun which turned to nightfall as soon as she left.
