I wonder what modifications Hunter will make to his deck to strengthen it

[Mysty]

Obviously a few cards in Nick's dimension don't work the same way they would in my fic's dimension. I'll have to include that detail in my fic when I write this tournament in my fic. When you're done with this tournament, or get to a good point in it, I'll start to include it in my fic. No pressure though, I can put off this arc in my fan-fic for a little bit.

[Haou Devil 12]

Here's Chapter 43 everyone. Enjoy.

 

[spoiler=Chapter 43]Hunter went back to the rest area limping a little bit, but he's still okay.

 

"Hunter." said Kim all worried.

 

"Don't worry, Kim." said Hunter. "I'm all ri... (grunts with pain)"

 

Nick and Chris caught him before he almost tipped over.

 

"You need to rest for a while." said Chris.

 

"Right. I need to save my energy if I'm ever gonna face him again." said Hunter.

 

"I don't think you will after that last attack." said Nick.

 

Nick and Chris sat Hunter down at the table, then Madeline came in.

 

"Hey, what's up?" asked Nick.

 

"You have to hide right now." said Madeline.

 

"How come?" asked Nick.

 

Then Malcolm came in.

 

"You!" yelled Malcolm.

 

"Oh, here we go." said Nick all annoyed.

 

"I warned you to stay away from my sister. And why did you protect her when the Emperor, our Grandfather was about to give her punishment?!" yelled Malcolm. "And threatining the Emperor crosses the line for me! Come on! Duel me!"

 

"Okay. First, quit yelling, 'cause I think the whole entire Duel Monster Realm can hear you. Second, you want to see your get hurt by one of her own?" asked Nick.

 

"I only follow the his majesty. And I'll take down anyone who gets in my way." said Malcolm.

 

"Ha! I bet he couldn't last 5 minutes with Nick." said Leo.

 

"Keep out of this boy! This doesn't concern you." said Malcolm.

 

"You said you'd take down anyone who gets in your way, so that also means me included, so if you want to get to Nick, you'll have to get past me to do it." said Leo.

 

"Even little kids stand up for their friends." said Nick.

 

Malcolm was furious with rage. Just then, the announcer called out the next match-up.

 

"Alright! The next battle is about to start. It's Leo from Team Satellite and from Team Ultimate Kingdom, it's the Kingdom - Prince, Malcolm." said the announcer.

 

"Like I said, if you want to get to Nick, you'll have to get past me." said Leo.

 

Malcolm smiled with determination.

 

"Fine then. It'll be a pleasure wiping you out of this tournament." said Malcolm as he walked out to the arena.

 

"Wish me luck out there." said Leo as he grabbed his Duel Disk and ran out to the arena.

 

("Be careful out there, Leo." thought Luna.)

 

They are standing in the arena and readied their Duel Disks.

 

"Okay! Are you two ready?" asked the announcer.

 

"Ready!" said Leo and Malcolm.

 

"Alright! Duel....... Start!" yelled the announcer.

 

Duel!

Leo/ 5 cards/ LP 8000

Malcolm/ 5 cards/ LP 8000

 

Leo: Turn 1

I draw. I summon "Morphtronic Celfon"(LV1/EARTH/Machine/Effect/ATK/100 DEF/100) in Attack Position. Now I activate "Morphtronic Celfon"(s) effect. The Celfon is dialing.... Now! You see, since "Morphtronic Celfon" is in Attack Mode, once per turn, It randomly selects a number 1-6 and whatever number it lands on, I pick up the top cards of my Deck equal to the number it landed on. If on of the cards is a "Morphtronic" monster, I get to Special Summon it. And it's a 3, so I pick up 3 cards. And since one of the cards is a "Morphtronic" monster, I Special Summon "Morphtronic Scopen"(LV3/LIGHT/Machine/Tuner/ATK/800 DEF/1400) in Attack Position. Now I activate "Morphtronic Scopen"(s) effect, since it's in Attack Mode, once per turn, I can Special Summon 1 LV4 or lower "Morphtronic" monster from my hand, so I Special Summon "Morphtronic Boomboxen"(LV4/EARTH/Machine/Effect/ATK/1200 DEF/400) Now I'm tuning my "Morphtronic Scopen"(LV3) with my "Morphtronic Boomboxen"(LV4). "Docking strength with courage to protect world peace! Synchro Summon" Envoy of Love and Justice, "Power Tool Dragon"(LV7/EARTH/Machine/Synchro/Effect/ATK/2300 DEF/2500) Now I activate its effect, once per turn, I can select 3 Equip Spells from my Deck and you have to pick one randomly, so it's a win or lose situation, pal. (Malcolm says: Very well then, the middle one.) Aw man. That's too bad... for you! I equip "Double Tool C&D" to "Power Tool Dragon". Now he gains 1000 ATK. (2300 + 1000 = 3300 ATK) I play 2 cards face-down and end my turn.

 

("Yes! It was only mt first turn and I managed to summon "Power Tool Dragon" without breaking a sweat!" thought Leo. "But I better be careful. I've seen what those "Kingdom" Decks can do, so I need to be on my guard.")

 

"My move." said Malcolm.

 

Leo/ 2 cards/ LP 8000

Malcolm/ 5 cards/ LP 8000

 

Malcolm: Turn 2

I draw. I summon "Kingdom - Mounted Knight"(LV4/EARTH/Warrior/Effect/ATK/1600 DEF/1200) Now his effect activates, when this card is Normal Summoned, by paying 1500 LP (Malcolm: LP 6500) I can Special Summon 1 "Kingdom" monster from my hand, so I Special Summon "Kingdom - Prince"(LV5/EARTH/Warrior/Effect/ATK/2200 DEF/2000) Now I play the spell "Double Summon", so I can summon a monster again. I set 1 monster and 2 cards face-down and end my turn.

 

Leo/ 2 cards/ LP 8000

Malcolm/ 0 cards/ LP 6500

 

Leo: Turn 3

I draw. I activate "Morphtronic Celfon"(s) effect. The Celfon is dialing.... Now! And it's a 2, so I pick up 2 cards. And I Special Summon "Morphtronic Magnen"(LV3/LIGHT/Thunder/Effect/ATK/800 DEF/800) Now I switch "Morphtronic Celfon" to Defense Position. (DEF: 100) Now I activate its Defense effect. The Celfon is dialing... Now! And it's another 2, so I pick up 2 cards, but this time, if it's a "Morphtronic" monster, I can place it at the top of my Deck, so I place "Morphtronic Radion"(LV4/LIGHT/Thunder/Effect/ATK/1000 DEF/1000) at the top of my Deck. Now I summon my first "Morphtronic Radion"(LV4/LIGHT/Thunder/Effect/ATK/1000 DEF/900) And since he's in Attack Position, all "Morphtronic" monsters I control gain 800 ATK. (1000 + 800 = 1800 ATK) Now "Power Tool Dragon" destroy his "Kingdom - Mounted Knight". (Malcolm counters: I activate the trap "Appearing Moat", so your attack is negated and the Battle Phase ends and I can activate "Kingdom - Moat" from my Deck.) I end my turn.

 

Leo/ 2 cards/ LP 8000

Malcolm/ 0 cards/ LP 6500

 

Malcolm: Turn 4

I draw. I Flip Summon "Castle Builder"(LV3/EARTH/Warrior/Effect/ATK/1000 DEF/1000) Now I activate his effect, when he's successfully Flip Summoned, I can activate the "Kingdom - Castle" Continuous Spell from my Deck. Next I play the spell "Pot of Greed", so I draw 2 cards. (Malcolm: Hand: 2) Next, I summon "Kingdom - Jester's Assistant"(LV1/EARTH/Warrior/Effect/ATK/0 DEF/1900) Now I activate his effect, when he's Normal Summoned or Flip Summoned, I can Special Summon 1 "Kingdom - Court Jester"(LV1/EARTH/Warrior/Tuner/ATK/300 DEF/300) from my Deck. Now I'm tuning "Kingdom - Court Jester"(LV1) with "Kingdom - Jester's Assistant"(LV1), "Castle Builder"(LV3) and "Kingdom - Mounted Knight"(LV4). "To all peasants of this forsaken world, bow before the Ultimate Kingdom! Synchro Summon! Take Flight! "Kingdom - Dragon"(LV9/EARTH/Dragon/Synchro/Effect/ATK/? DEF/2500) Now I activate "Kingdom - Dragon"(s) effect, when he's Synchro Summoned, its original ATK are the combined ATK of the monsters used to Synchro Summon it. (ATK: 2900) Now I play the spell "Call the Guards", so I pay 2000 LP (Malcolm: LP 4500) and activate "Kingdom - Guards" from my Deck. Now I activate the effect of "Kingdom - Guards", once per turn, I can destroy 1 monster you control, so I choose your "Power Tool Dragon". (Leo counters: I activate "Power Toll Dragon"(s) effect, if it's going to be destroyed while equipped with an Equip Spell, by sending the Equip Spell to the Graveyard, I can negate its destruction.) Very well. In that case, "Kingdom - Dragon" destroy his "Power Tool Dragon". (Leo: LP 7400) Now "Kingdom - Prince" destroy his "Morphtronic Radion". (Leo counters: I activate the Continuous Trap "Morphtronic Bind", while this card is on the field, all LV4 or higher monsters you control can't attack.) I figured something like this would happen, so my Battle Phase ends, but I activate my second face-down, the Quick-Play Spell "Weapon Artilery", when this card is activated, if I control 2 or more "Kingdom" monsters on my field, I can activate "Kingdom - Artilery" Continuous Spell from my Deck. Now I activate the effects of "Kingdom - Artilery", once per turn, I can inflict damage to my opponent equal to the combined ATK of all "Kingdom" monsters I control, so you take 5100 points of damage. (Leo: LP 2300) I end my turn.

 

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!" laughed Malcolm. "Come next turn, you protecting your friends will be nothing more than a fantasy."

 

("I have to keep trying. For Nick." thought Leo. "It all depends on this one draw.")

 

Leo/ 2 cards/ LP 2300

Malcolm/ 0 cards/ LP 4500

 

Leo: Turn 5

I draw. (Malcolm counters: I activate the effects of "Kingdom - Moat", during my opponent's Standby Phase, I can choose a type or Attribute of a monster and selected Attribute or type cannot attack until my next Standby Phase, so I choose Machine-type(s).) (Leo thinks: Hmm. It's a risk, but...) I switch "Morphtronic Celfon" to Attack Position and activate its effect. (ATK: 100) The Celfon is dialing... Now! And it's a 3, so I pick up 3 cards. (Leo thinks: This is it!) (picks up 3 cards and looks at them.) (Leo thinks: Yes!) Now I Special Summon "Morphtronic Datatron"(LV3/FIRE/Pyro/Effect/ATK/1200 DEF/600) Now I play the spell "Pot of Greed", so I draw 2 cards. (Leo: Hand: 4) Now I play the Quick-Play Spell "Mystical Space Typhoon", so I can destroy your "Kingdom - Moat". (Malcolm says: No!) Now I activate my second face-down. "Morphtronic Mix-up", if I control 2 or more "Morphtronic" monsters on my field, I can select 2 cards you control and you have to pick which card to destroy, so I choose your "Kingdom - Guards" and... "Kingdom - Dragon." (Malcolm thinks: No! Both of those cards are the only keys I need to win this Duel!) So what's it going to be? Your "Guards", or your precious Dragon? (Malcolm says: I choose.... "Kingdom - Dragon".) Good choice. Now I play the spell "Double Summon", so I can summon twice this turn, so I summon another "Morphtronic Radion"(LV4/LIGHT/Thunder/Effect/ATK/1000 DEF/1000) and "Morphtronic Slingen"(LV4/WIND/Machine/Effect/ATK/1200 DEF/800) Now "Morphtronic Radion"(s) effect activates, since he's in Attack Position, all "Morphtronic" monsters gain 800 ATK. And thanks to my first "Morphtronic Radion", they gain an extra 800 ATK. ("Datatron": 1200 + 800 + 800 = 2800 ATK/ "Radion" x2: 1000 + 800 + 800 = 2600 ATK/ "Slinger": 1200 + 800 + 800 = 2800 ATK) Now I activate the effect of "Morphtronic Slinger", once per turn, if it's in Attack Position, I can tribute 1 "Morphtronic" monster, besides "Morphtronic Slinger", I can destroy 1 cards on the field, so I tribute my "Morphtronic Celfon" and destroy your "Kingdom - Prince". (Malcolm says: No! I'm wide open!) You got that right! I call this my "Morphtronic Charge" OTK! Now my "Morphtronic Radion"(s) END THIS!!!

 

Leo: LP 2300/ Winner

Malcolm: LP 0/ Defeated

 

"And the winner is Leo!" yelled the announcer.

 

The crowd cheered for Leo.

 

"Yes! I won!" yelled Leo! "YEAH!!!"

 

"I lost." said Malcolm all disappointed. "Now I must face punishment from his majesty."

 

"You don't have to listen to him." said Leo. "People make mistakes all the time and they always try again. Maybe someday you'll do the same thing, but right now, you don't have to take any grief from your Emperor."

 

"Out of the way, boy!" said the Emperor as he pushed Leo away. "You've failed me also, Malcolm. Now face punishment for your actions!" said the Emperor going in to hit Malcolm."

 

"No!" yelled Leo.

 

Just then, Nick stepped in and blocked the Emperors hit again.

 

"Why... Why did you..." said Malcolm.

 

"Why must you always get in the way?!" asked the Emperor growling.

 

"Because you shouldn't do this to any of your team." said Nick. "They don't need this kind of abuse from a deranged Emperor who's obesessed with winning all the time."

 

The Emperor growled with anger and turned and walked away.

 

"Why did you do that? We both hate each other." said Malcolm.

 

"At first, I did want to see you get hit, but your sister talked me out of it." said Nick. "And like I said to her when she lost, you should live your own life. A life without him."

 

Malcolm looked at Nick and smiled and said...

 

"You're different from any Duelist I met." said Malcolm. "I'll see you later."

 

Malcolm, Nick, and Leo walked off the stage.

 

"Alright! We have our contestants for the next match." said the announcer. "From Team Mystery, the person who gave them the name, Mystery versus from Team Dark Signer, the one who holds the mark of the killer whale, Alex! Are you Duelists ready?"

 

"I am ready." said Mystery.

 

"As so am I." said Alex.

 

The field was surrounded by a circle of purple flames.

 

"Alright! Duel...... Start!" yelled the announcer.

 

"Let's Duel!" yelled Mystery and Alex.

 

Card of the Day: "Morphtronic Radion"

 

 

Leo won his first match of the tournament with his perfectly executed OTK. Now it's Mystery's turn against one of the Dark Signers. "Next Chapter"! Mystery's Deck has proven some result until Alex breaks out his Earthbound Immortal. Will Mystery win this fight against good and evil, or will he fall under the powers of evil? Find out next time. Until then, KEEP ON DUELING!!

too short of a start in the duel, I'll wait for the rest of the chap to go up

Chapter 43 is updated. Please read and comment.

[ragnarok1945]

You know it annoys me how so many times it comes down to the final draw you get what you need, can't you make it so that doesn't work anymore?

[Haou Devil 12]

I'm not sure. And besides, the final draw is always the most exciting part of a Duel. If the person you want to win is almost on the verge of losing, wouldn't you want him to get the card he wants and he ends up drawing it?

[ragnarok1945]

yeah, but those kinds of miracles tend to get old soon

Mystery: LP 1900/ Winner

Alex: LP 0/ Defeated

 

The circle of fire dispersed

 

"And the winner is... Mystery!" yelled the announcer.

 

The crowd roared and cheered.

 

"Now you're free from the Dark Signers, Alex." said Mystery as he held his hand out.

 

Alex slapped Mystery's hand away.

 

"This isn't possible!" said Alex. "A Dark Signer can't lose to a non-Signer!"

 

("Impossible." thought Mystery. "If a Dark Signer loses a Shadow Duel, they return to normal, so why isn't he back to normal?)

 

Alex walked out of the arena furiously.

 

"What just happened?" asked Leo.

 

"I knew it." said Nick.

 

"What is it?" asked Yusei.

 

"Their souls are not trapped in their bodies, but within the Earthbound Immortals." said Nick.

 

"But Mystery destroyed his Earthbound Immortal, so how come he isn't back to normal?" asked Yusei.

 

"Maybe because they weren't Dueling inside the mark of the Earthbound Immortal." said Nick. "If any one of us could defeat them inside the mark of their Earthbound Immortals, we might be able to get them back. It's just a theory. I'm not really sure."

 

Nick looked over to the Dark Signers table.

 

("But I am sure I'll get them back. No matter what it takes!" thought Nick.)

 

Card of the Day: "Alien Overlord"

 

 

Mystery won by a carefully planned counterattack, but Alex was never turned back to normal and so they think of another plan to save them. "Next Chapter"! It's Link's turn with his Tuner "Synchronized" Deck. He's going against the Kingdom - King from Team Ultimate Kingdom, so the question is, will Link's own created cards bring victory for his team, or will Team Ultimate Kingdom get their first win of the tournament? Find out next time. Until then, KEEP ON DUELING!!

Excellent duel for 43, 44 is too small to comment on ANYTHING

I wonder if that "Emperor" is actually either the Dark Emperor or the Corrupt Czar.

Cool tournament though.

I don't mean to be rude, but you guys take all the fun out of me giving spoilers. To answer your question, yes. It is "Kingdom - Corrupt Czar", but in my Fan Fic, I will place him as "Kindgom - Dark Emperor", then he goes mad with power, thereby turning him into a "Corrupt Czar".

I knew the Emperor would never be that mean to his subordinates.
