Friendship is Dueling 2: The Friendship Games // by Bahamut0 //------------------------------// "It looks like there's only one way to get through to you.", Sunset said as she got her hand ready. "You can try...", Midnight said with a dark smile. Daydream Shimmer: 8000 Midnight Sparkle: 8000 "I summon Midnight Apprentice in attack mode! Then I'll equip her with Midnight Tome! This boosts the attack of a 'Midnight' monster by 500 points! Then I'll set a card and end my turn." "I draw!", Sunset said. 'This duel's the only way I can get through to Twilight! It's funny. Now our roles are reversed this time around. Just means I have to fight harder to save her!' "I summon Blue Flame Swordsman and equip him with Salamandra! This boosts him by 700 points! Attack Midnight Apprentice! Flame Slash!" Midnight Apprentice was cut down with one slash! "Then I'll set two cards and end my turn." Daydream Shimmer: 8000 Midnight Sparkle: 7500 "I activate my trap! Midnight Castle! Since a 'Midnight' monster was destroyed, I can place one Midnight Counter on my castle. Now that Midnight Apprentice was destroyed, I can special summon Midnight Sorceress from my hand or deck! Now I'll remove one Midnight Counter from my castle! This switches all monsters on my opponent's field and halves their defense! Did I forget to mention all 'Midnight' monsters have the ability to do piercing damage? Destroy her Blue Flame Swordsman! Midnight Destruction!" Sunset winced as he monster was destroyed! "I end my turn." Daydream Shimmer: 6600 Midnight Sparkle: 7500 "My move!" Sunset drew her next card. 'This monster should help me out! "I s'ummon a monster in defense mode and end my turn!" "In that case, I'll attack your monster!" Midnight Sorceress charged at Sunset's monster! "I activate one of my face-downs! The Flute of Summoning Kuriboh! I'll add Kuriboh to my hand! Then I'll discard it so that I don't take any damage! Now for my monster's effects!" Midnight was surprised when Sunset's monster was still on the field! "Marshmallon can't be destroyed by battle! And since he was attacked in face-down defense mode, you take 1000 points of damage!" "I end my turn with a face-down.", Midnight said with a frown. Daydream Shimmer: 6600 Midnight Sparkle: 6500 "I draw! I'll summon Blade Knight! Then I'll attack your monster! Now I activate my trap! Metalmorph! This lets Blade Knight gain 300 points! And when he attacks, he gains half of your monster's attack points!" 'This should help me get her monster off the field!' "I activate my face-down! Midnight Fury! This banishes all monsters you control!" "Not good!" Sunset watched her monsters disappear from the field! "I guess I'll end my turn with a face-down." 'This card should help if she tries to wipe me out with a direct attack!' "I draw then! And so it ends! I'll banish Midnight Sorceress and Midnight Apprentice from my field and graveyard to summon Midnight Mistress!" A fearsome looking monster wearing purple armor and wielding a black staff appeared from a swirl of darkness! "Now I play a spell card! Midnight's Dominance! This doubles the attack of all 'Midnight' monsters on my field! Attack her directly!" "I activate my face-down! Magic Cylinder!" "I don't think so! Midnight Mistress can't be targeted or destroyed by card effects thanks to Midnight's Dominance!" Sunset braced herself as her life points took a massive hit! "I end my turn." Daydream Shimmer: 600 Midnight Sparkle: 6500 'One more attack and I'm done for!', Sunset thought. A rainbow-colored glow then came from the top of Sunset's deck! "Huh?" Sunset picked up the card, and was amazed at what she saw. "No way...my own harmony card!" Sunset's gaze steeled. "I activate the spell card Harmonic Fusion! I'll send Guardian Eatos and BLS from my deck to the graveyard to fusion summon Eatos-The Envoy of Harmony!" Eatos descended from the heavens! Clad in armor similar to BLS's, but designed for a female and amber in color! "Now to see what she can do! I'll banish your monster!" A beam of light shot from Eatos's sword! Banishing Midnight Mistress! "Now you take damage equal to half her attack points! The only downside is that Eatos can't attack after she uses this effect. So I'll end my turn." 'I'm going to get through to you Twilight. One way or another!' Daydream Shimmer: 600 Midnight Sparkle: 5000 "I draw! I play Midnight's Call! I pay half my life points to return a banished monster to my field! Welcome back Midnight Mistress! I'll have her go into defense mode and end my turn." "In that case, I'll attack!" Midnight Mistress was destroyed! 'Time to see what other abilites Eatos has!' "Too bad you couldn't get at my life points.", Midnight said with a smirk. "I don't think so! When Eatos destroys a monster by battle, she can attack again! Harmony Slash!" Eatos charged at Midnight, and slashed at her life points! "I'll end my turn." Daydream Shimmer: 600 Midnight Sparkle: 1500 "This isn't over!", Midnight roared. "I can still draw a card! NO!" Midnight was furious when she saw her hand. "Time to end this! Eatos!" "Time to light the darkness!", Eatos said as she fired a beam of light! Wiping out the last of Midnight's life points! Midnight shook the damage off and she and Sunset charged at each other! A bright flash went off! Inside the light... "Take my hand Twilight.", Sunset said as she offered Twilight her hand. "Let me help you. Like a friend did for me once..." Twilight nervously took Sunset's hand, and slowly returned to normal. The light faded to reveal Sunset and Twilight back on the ground. Slightly roughed up from the battle. Principal Cinch then stormed forth! "Principal Celestia! I demand that you forfeit the Friendship Games! You can't possibly consider any of this fair!" "I'd like to think saving the world benefits us all.", Celestia said with a smile. "This isn't the end! I'm going to the school board about this!" "Yeah Tell them about the crazy portals, magic, a talking dog, and students growing wings.", Cadence and Luna listed off. "Not to mention turning Twilight into a demon.", Sugar Coast said bluntly. "No. This is too easy for her.", Burst said. "Blue-Eyes." Blue-Eyes materialized and grabbed Cinch. "Unhand me!", Cinch screamed. "Oh I'd rather he hold onto you.", a voice said. Cinch froze. It was Superintendent Faust was here. "I've heard more than my fair share of reports about how you've been running Crystal Prep. And I am greatly disappointed in you. But after this incident, I can see it was a poor decision to put you in charge. Clean out your desk. You're fired." Faust then turned to Cadence. "I've already got the perfect replacement in mind." Faust then turned to Burst. "You wouldn't mind taking out the trash would you?", she asked with a smile. Burst and Blue-Eyes smirked at Cinch. "We've got a good way to do that." Burst got onto Blue-Eyes and they hovered over a trash can. "Bombs away!" Blue-Eyes dropped Cinch into the trash can! "Good riddance to bad rubbish!" Everyone cheered! "Now that we have a happy ending..." Burst then collapsed onto the ground. Sound asleep. Celestia smiled. "Let's get him to the infirmary. It's probably more comfortable than the ground", she said with a smile. "I declare us all winners!"
