Painful plans

CHAPTER EIGHT

Alex took at a minute to gaze at her two favorite cards; her Red Eyes and her Spy Girl. She smiled at them and felt as if they were winking at her. “Thanks, you guys. You really pulled through for me.”

Then she looked up and saw dark storm clouds heading their way; a dreaded monsoon, which Alex thought was weird since it was nowhere near that season at this time of year. She then gazed at the shaken little pony, and felt her sympathy growing as she approached her.

Poor Fluttershy was on the verge of weeping. “How I could lose?” she cried “I was so bold, so assertive.”

“You let it blind you, remember?” said Alex “Just like you’re letting that mark on your head blind you.”

Fluttershy didn’t even look up at her, and just continued to glance sadly at the ground.

“Hey, come on…” Alex said “It’s just a game, and you still played a good one.”

“You just don’t get it, do you.” hissed a voice. Alex turned round and saw Tony, Megan and Sam staring her down like zombies, and they all had the astral mark on their heads. “Okay, this is not cool.” Alex muttered, and she tried to reason with her friends, but in vain, they just wouldn’t listen.

“Can’t you guys see you’ve been brainwashed?” Alex said “Look, I just want to help you.”

“We don’t need help.” said Tony “We’ve heard the word of Princess Celestia, and we were foolish to ever resist her.”

“We’ve been reborn; basked in the light of harmony.” said Megan “And everyone else should stop resisting it.”

“Don’t you get it, Alex?” snapped Sam “You need to wake and realize you’re fighting a losing battle, and we’re here to show you the true path.”

Alex couldn’t believe what she was hearing. “Talk about super-duper brainwashing.”

“We just said no one’s been brainwashed.” said Sam.

“Now you have a choice…” added Tony.

“Either come willingly, or we do this the hard way.” said Megan.

Alex clenched her fists nervously, unsure of what to do.

“Hold it!” shouted a voice “I’ll handle this.”

The three spies stopped and bowed softly saying “Yes, Master Spike.”

Alex slowly turned round and saw what had to be, the strangest creature she had ever seen. “A purple and green lizard the size of a beach-ball?” she asked in confusion.

The creatures glared furiously at her, and little puffs of smoke shot through his nostrils, but instead of answering back, he crossed over to Fluttershy.

“Spike, I lost. I’m sorry, I really tried.” she cried, but Spike hushed her softly and told her not to worry. “We are not angry with you, you have done well, but you’re weary. You need to return to the princess. It’s okay. She is more than understanding.”

Fluttershy sniffed softly, and nodded slowly. Then, her astral mark glowed brightly, and she vanished in a sparkling stream of light, and was gone.

Alex rubbed her eyes in disbelief “Where’d she go?”

“Never mind that.” said Spike “I have my orders, from Twilight Sparkle. I will settle any and all disputes from those who dare to defy our Princess, Celestia, and get in the way of our glorious vision of a perfect world.”

Alex felt her anger boiling again “If you think I’m going to let some pint-sized lizard talk that way to me, you’ve got another thing coming.”

Spike angrily narrowed his eyes at her “First of all; I’m a dragon, not lizard, and second; by the time I’m finished with you, you’ll begin to show better respect for us and what we strive for.”

A duel terminal appeared for Spike. Despite that he was more anthropomorphic than the ponies, he was too little to wear a big duel disk on his arm, but at least he was able to hold and play his cards normally. “Prepare yourself…”

Alex smirked cheekily “So, I get to kick two baddies in one day? Cool.” She prepared her duel disk and drew her cards, but Spike glared at her and snickered softly, and the three spies grinned sinisterly. “Uh, I think I missed the joke.” said Alex.

“The joke is you.” said Megan.

“Master Spike is unmatchable.” added Tony.

“We faced him and he defeated us easily.” said Sam “Thank Celestia he forgave us.”

Alex was growing sick and tired of hearing all this nonsense about Celestia, the light and harmony and all that. “Let’s do this…!” she snarled.



The data came through on my terminal. “This is it.” I said “It’s what we’ve been waiting for.”

Slowly but surely I could see Spike’s picture, and was about to see just what type of strategy he had up his tiny little sleeve, even if he wasn’t wearing any clothes. “Be careful, Alex.” I muttered softly.



The score was set…

SCORE:

Alex: 8000 VS Spike: 8000

“Feel free to make the first move, and play as many cards as you wish.” said Spike “In the end, it won’t matter to me a bit.”

“Fine then!” snarled Alex, and she drew her first cards “I activate GRACEFUL CHARITY. So I draw three cards, and ditch out two.” After the resolve, Alex what she believed to be the best seven cards she could ask for.

“First, I summon my RED EYES BLACK CHICK!”

(Atk: 800)

“But he won’t be hanging for long, because all I do is sacrifice him, and I can summon my main guy; RED EYES BLACK DRAGON!”

(Atk: 2400)

“But wait, there’s more. Now I sacrifice him, for something even bigger; RED EYES DARKNESS DRAGON!”

(Atk: 2400) ---> (Atk: 3600)

His attack power increased because Alex had four dragons in her graveyard, one of which was Baby Dragon “Still, I’m not cool with that, so I’ll play MONSTER REBORN and revive a monster chilling in the grave; RED EYES DARKNESS METAL DRAGON!”

(Atk: 2800)

“And thanks to him, I get to bring my Red Eyes back too.”

(Atk: 2400)

“Now that he’s here, I can use this card, INFERNO FIRE BLAST!”

Spike growled softly, knowing fully well what he was in for, and he was suddenly blasted hard and dealt 2400 points of damage.

SCORE:

Alex: 8000 VS Spike: 5600

The other three spies were upset and concerned for Spike, but he assured them he was alright and there was nothing to fear. Alex then placed the last two cards in her hand facedown and ended her turn.

She felt really confident she couldn’t lose. Her face downs were BOTTOMLESS TRAP HOLE; which would destroy any monsters Spike would special summon if they had over 1500 attack points, and the second was TRAP STUN. If Spike tried to play any trap cards, she could stun them, and then, with three super dragons ready for attack, she didn’t see a way she could lose.

Spike, however, was sniggering.

“Now what…?” Alex sneered.

“If that’s the best you’ve got, I’m disappointed.” Spike said, making Alex feel insulted, but Spike drew his cards and grinned wickedly. “This will be over faster than I thought. I play FUTURE FUSION! All I have to do is send the required monsters from my deck to the graveyard, and I choose these five dragons.”

Alex figured he would do this, remembering what she was warned to watch out for. Spike was the one with the Five-Headed Dragon. Now in two turns it would appear, and even if it did, she felt her Bottomless Trap Hole card would save her…

…but Spike was far from finished.

“Next I’ll activate the spell GIANT TRUNADE!”

“Ah!” Alex gasped, having that card in her deck herself, she knew that it sent all spells and traps on the field back to the players’ hands, and in a blinding blast of winds, so it was done. Alex was not thrilled that her traps were off the field.

“Now then…” said Spike “Since my Future Fusion is back in my hand, I can play it again; so now I send another five dragons to the graveyard.” he picked his dragons and tossed them away. “Now that that’s completed, I can play two DRAGON’S MIRROR(s)!”

Alex practically screamed “What… Two…?!” She knew the Dragon’s Mirror allowed Spike to banish from his graveyard monsters for a Dragon Fusion. So he banished all ten of his monsters, and suddenly, they appeared. “Behold, not one, but two FIVE-HEADED DRAGON(s)!”

(Atk: 5000) x2

The two colossal beasts glared at Alex and roared loudly, sending a wave of wind right at her.
“This so is not good.” she cried.

Spike snickered wickedly “And I’m still not finished. Now I discard one card from my hand to play SUPER POLYMERIZATION!”

“What?!” cried Alex.

“This lets me fusion summon, but I get to use your monsters as well as mine!” and right then, he snatched all three of Alex’s dragons and fused them with both his, and summoned a third Five-Headed Dragon.

“And last but not least, the spell card MEGAMORPH!”

“No! Not Megamorph!” screamed Alex “That doubles your monster’s attack power!”

(Atk: 5000) ---> (Atk: 10,000)


She screamed in panic, and Spike smirked at her and then quietly told his monster “Go get her.”

The dragon attacked… Alex screamed… a big holographic explosion erupted and could be seen for miles.



I saw the entire duel play out, and the screen suddenly went blank “No, Alex!” I cried.




A complete and total One-Turn-Kill! Alex lay on the ground, completely conked out from such a force. Her cards lay scattered all around her and her Duel Disk had overloaded a bit and powered down.

Now that she was down, Twilight Sparkle appeared. “Good job, Spike, as usual.”

Spike grinned and blew on his claw triumphantly. Twilight then gazed down pitifully at Alex. “They always want to do it the hard way.” She said grimly.

The other spies then moved in and lifted Alex up, and Twilight teleported them all away.

No sooner had they gone did a heavy rain begin to fall. The weather was really getting out of control.



I was really down hard on Alex’s defeat. I pounded my desk again in frustration “Alex…! I can’t believe it. I just can’t!”

Sabrina was just as upset as I was. “We’ll get her back and the others too. I know we will.” She said to me, but really she was starting to have a small amount of doubt. However, her words did help me find a bit of strength, but I was really worried for the safety of the others.

Suddenly, Jerry called in telling us to come to WOOHP at once, or rather standby to be WOOHPED. That’s when we both got sucked through the air vents, and suddenly wound up in Jerry’s office. “Thanks for the warning…” I grumbled as I rubbed my sore behind.

“I’m starting to see why the spies complain.” grumbled Sabrina.

“So sorry, but it is the fastest and easiest way to get here.” Jerry said “But now, onto more pressing matters…”

He told us that the busted duel disks had been repaired, and the data was retrieved. First he showed us Megan’s last duel before her disk shorted out. It was against Spike, and he defeated her in a OTK using the Five-Headed Dragon. Sam and Tony met the same fate too; they were defeated in one blast.

“Incredible.” I said “He’s dueling like a complete master.”

It all made sense to us now. Whenever the spies defeated the ponies, Spike was sent in as a backup; to re-duel the victor while they were already worn out, and having just seen their entire strategy, making it easy for him to counter.

“I think I know how we can put an end to this.” said Sabrina. We all huddled together and listened to her idea. “Honey, that’s wonderful. It just may work.”

“I’ll contact the spies.” said Jerry.

Lee, Marc and Clover were the only spies left not to be affected by the lights. We told them of our idea, and they all agreed to it, and decided to all head to the next destination together, Southdale, the Clarks hometown where the Pink light seemed to be emitting from the strongest.

“Do you really think this will work?” asked Lee.

“If you play your cards, it should work, Lee.” I said “I’m even going to transfer the data we got from the duel disks to your coms.”

I did so, and Marc received the data. “Cool, now we’ll be able to know at least some of Spike’s cards, and we can figure out how to work against him. After all, the best way to beat a trickster is to use trickery.”

Lee was a bit lost, and Clover explained how this sort of cheating was actually sensible. Since Spike was very powerful, they needed to know as about his strategy as they could to help work against it.

“We are like so going to trounce these creeps for what they did to Sam and Alex.” said Clover.

“Don’t forget Tony and Megan.” said Lee “We’ll make these guys sorry they ever messed with us.”

“Good luck super spies.” Jerry said, and then he logged off. Then he mumbled softly “I just hope they hurry before it’s too late.”

“What was that?” I asked.

“Oh... oh, why, er… nothing... I didn’t say anything.”

“You said “before it’s too late.” said Sabrina “We heard you?”

Jerry tried to come up with an excuse, but all he did was convince us more something was up. “Jerry, what’s going on?” I asked “Tell us!”

Jerry had no choice but to come clean. “You’d better brace yourselves though…” he said as he typed on his computer and showed us a simple image of the moon. “What’s that got to do with anything?” Sabrina asked.

Jerry explained how WOOHP had been working hard, and discovered that the lights in the sky were apparently a combination of the ponies’ magic and solar energy from the sun, this combined with the forces of the astral power the ponies were unleashed was generating a force so incredibly powerful, that it seemed to be acting as the equivalent of an electro-magnetic force around the moon.

The worried my wife and I. “Are you saying these lights in the sky are powerful enough to change the moon’s orbit?” I asked.

“They already have.” replied Jerry.

“This is crazy!” cried Sabrina “Don’t the ponies realize this?”

“Apparently not…” said Jerry “Mind you, it is rather difficult to see with the lights covering the sky; it appears to be their one blind spot. Something they hadn’t planned for. They are so obsessed with turning our world into a land of worshipers, that they don’t realize what they are about to do to the Earth.”

“And… what’s that?” I asked.

“The moon is slowly being pulled closer and closer towards us.” Jerry said, and he showed us images of how the Earth was being affected; all the different climates, and sudden storms and savage typhoons, some flooding in other countries due to abnormal lunar activity.

“Oh my god!” cried Sabrina “We can’t let this happen.”

Jerry nodded and explained that WOOHP had dealt with things like this before, and had developed a sort of anti-magnetic force powerful enough that could restore the moon to its proper place. “Unfortunately, the lights in the sky are far too powerful for our anti-magnet to function, and must be completely dispelled.”

“So we’ve got to defeat the remaining ponies before we can act.” I said.

“That is correct…” said Jerry “But we have very little time. As I said, the moon is steadily moving towards us. If it reaches the Point-Of-No-Return before we can activate the anti-magnet…” he zoomed in closer and closer to the moon to emphasise his point “…it will crash into us… and, quite literally, end the world.”

A long and considerably frightful silence followed!



Meanwhile, in Celestia’s lair, Alex had just been converted, or rather brainwashed, and she bowed to Celestia “Your highness, do forgive me. I have acted very foolish. I now live only to serve you and to bask in the light of harmony.”

“Mmm… very good. You are most forgiven.” Celestia said.

Alex smiled, and stood with her friends.

“Now, listen… I have a new plan.” said Celestia “I have recently located the main source of those who oppose us, in two separate locations.” Her horn glowed magically and she showed everyone images from Earth.

“That’s WOOHP.” said Tony.

“And there’s Duel Academy.” added Megan.

Celestia nodded and instructed that they would split into groups, to perform a two-way takeover plot. “Twilight Sparkle will accompany two of you to WOOHP, and I will arrange for others in our clan to assist with the capture of Duel Academy. We cannot allow them to continue their defiance.”

The spies nodded. “But what of our other friends?” asked Sam “Surely they will join us too?”

“They will join us…” said Princess Luna “Our plan has not failed yet, nor should it. Now you were all given your orders.”

The team bowed and left the chamber, and the two sisters faced one another, grinning sinisterly, and Celestia gave a small snigger.
