//------------------------------// // Duel 16: Henshin! // Story: Yu-Gi-Oh! Friendship is Dueling 3: Battle City Canterlot // by Bahamut0 //------------------------------// Burst was walking the streets looking for a duel. He didn't have to wait long. "MASTER!" Burst looked to a lamp post, and saw a figure dressed up like a Japanese super hero. "....Did I walk onto the set of a Kamen Rider episode?", Burst thought out loud. The figure jumped down, and removed his helmet. "Wow. Nice cosplay Blueblood. Looks just like the costume they used for Contrast HERO Chaos in the TV series." "Thanks! I'm a die-hard cosplayer. So I figured I might as well dress up as my favorite Masked HERO. So how goes your progress in the tournament master?" "I'm five locator cards down, and one to go.", Burst answered. "Then I'd be happy to duel you so you can obtain the last card you need Master!" Blueblood activated his duel disk. Burst chuckled. "Don't you dare hold anything back!" Burst: 8000 Blueblood: 8000 "I'll take the first move!", Blueblood said. "I summon Elemental HERO Shadow Mist! Then I'll play Mask Change! I'll send Shadow Mist to the graveyard to summon Masked HERO Dark Law from my extra deck! And since Shadow Mist was sent to the graveyard, I can add one 'HERO' monster from my deck to my hand! Then I'll set a card and end my turn. Your move master!" "I draw! I'll summon a monster in defense mode and end my turn." "I draw! I play the spell card Heated Heart! This boosts Dark Law by 500 attack points! And when he attacks, he deals piercing damage when he destroys a defense mode monster! Attack his face-down!" Dark Law leaped into the air, and executed a blazing kick that shattered Burst's monster! Burst flinched as he took damage! "I end my turn. Now Heated Heart's effect wears off." "Since you ended your turn, White Stone of Ancients' effect activates! I can special summon a 'Blue-Eyes' monster from my deck! I'll bring out Blue-Eyes White Dragon!" Burst: 5600 Blueblood: 8000 "You got in a pretty good first hit.", Burst said with a smile. "Too bad Dark Law's attack points are back to normal. Blue-Eyes, attack Dark Law!" "Now for my special move!", Blue-Eyes said with a smile. Blue-Eyes leaped into the air and wrapped himself in lightning! "Burst Impact!" Blue-Eyes dived down and impacted Dark Law! Leaving a crater in his wake! Dark Law faded from the field. "I end my turn with a face-down." Burst: 5600 Blueblood: 7600 "I draw! I summon Elemental HERO Voltic! Then I'll play Mask Charge to add Mask Change and a 'HERO' monster to my hand! Now I'll activate Mask Change and target Voltic! HENSHIN!" A flash of light enveloped Voltic! "I summon Masked HERO Koga! Now his effect activates! He gains 500 attack for each monster you control! Then I'll banish Voltic from my graveyard to lower Blue-Eyes' attack by Voltic's attack! Attack Blue-Eyes Koga!" Koga charged at Blue-Eyes and leaped forward! Executing a spiral attack with his blades! "I end my turn." Burst: 4500 Blueblood: 7600 "You've gotten better since Duelist Kingdom. I'm pretty impressed." Burst drew his next card. "I'll discard a card to activate The Melody of Awakening Dragon! I'll discard a card to add two dragon-type monsters from my deck to my hand! I end my turn." "Thanks. Now I'll bring out my best hero! I play Miracle Fusion! I'll banish Koga from my field and Dark Law from my graveyard! I fusion summon Contrast HERO Chaos! Then I'll activate my trap! Safe Zone! Then I'll use Chaos's effect to negate Safe Zone so he can attack you directly!" "I don't think so! Chaos can only use his effect once per turn! Now I have the perfect chance to turn the tables! I activate my trap! Curse of Anubis! This switches all effect monsters on the field into face-up defense mode and makes their defense zero until the end of this turn! Also, their battle positions can't be changed!" "I should've expected nothing less from you master! I end my turn." "I draw! I summon Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands! Now I activate his effect!" "Chaos's effect negates Manju's effect!", Blueblood countered. "Then it's a good thing I don't need it! I activate the ritual spell Chaos Form! I'll tribute Blue-Eyes from my hand!" A swirling chaos portal materialized on the field! Blue-Eyes stood directly under it, and crossed his forearms , and wrapped his wings around himself! "HENSHIN!", Blue-Eyes cried as he flew spiraling into the portal! When he emerged and struck a pose right out of Power Rangers! "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX!" "Now Chaos MAX! Attack Contrast HERO Chaos!" "Chaos Neutron Blast!", Chaos MAX cried as he fired his signature attack! "Safe Zone keeps Chaos safe from being destroyed by battle! But then again, Chaos MAX inflicts double piercing damage. Ironic. By using Safe Zone, I compromised my life points.", Blueblood said as he took damage. "I end my turn." Burst: 4500 Blueblood: 4800 "I think I've got a work-around for Safe-Zone. You taught me that the duel's not over until the last card is drawn! I play Mask Change! I'll send Chaos to the graveyard! Now Safe Zone leaves the field. Now I'll bring out Masked HERO Anki! Now his special ability lets him attack you directly! However, the damage done is halved." Burst winced as Anki delivered a powerful kick to Burst's life points! "At least I got in one last good hit. I end my turn." Burst: 3100 Blueblood: 4800 "I draw! I play Return of the Dragon Lords to revive Blue-Eyes White Dragon from my graveyard! I'll take down Anki with Chaos MAX!" Blueblood winced as Chaos MAX delivered a powerful punch that destroyed Anki! Then I'll attack you directly with Blue-Eyes!" Blueblood took the full force of Blue-Eyes' attack! "I end my turn." Burst: 3100 Blueblood: 600 "I draw!" Blueblood took a careful look at his hand. "I end my turn." "Let's end this Blue-Eyes! White Lightning!" Blue-Eyes' attack wiped out the last of Blueblood's life points! When the duel was over, Blueblood handed Burst a locator card. "It was good dueling with you again Blueblood." "A pleasure as always master. Wanna take a picture of all our monsters?" "...You read my mind." Burst summoned out all of his dragons while Blueblood summoned out all of his Masked HEROES. Burst handed Maiden with Eyes of Blue his phone for her to take the picture. "On three! One...two....three!" "HENSHIN!" Maiden with Eyes of Blue snapped a picture of all the heroes and dragons, as well as their partners doing action poses. "Good luck in the finals master.", Blueblood said with a small bow. "Don't forget Blue-Eyes! I'm waiting for that sparring match back home!", Contrast HERO Chaos said as he returned to the monster world. "Thanks you two." Burst then put all of the locator cards on his duel disk, and the location of the finals was displayed from the projected hologram. "Looks like out next stop is the duel stadium." Burst hopped onto Blue-Eyes' back. "Let's fly Blue-Eyes!" The two took off and flew over to the duel stadium!
