//------------------------------// // Duel 6: Gentle Giant // Story: Yu-Gi-Oh! Friendship is Dueling 8: Reunions // by Bahamut0 //------------------------------// Another school day had come and gone, and Fluttershy found herself handing out volunteer flyers for the animal shelter. More people had taken up interest, but the one who was there helping her most of the time was Fang. Fluttershy sighed. However, she was about to gain a big help. "Something got you down?", Tyrannus asked. "Oh! Ty! It's nothing. I'm just a bit understaffed at the animal shelter. So I've been handing out flyers to students so they can help. But not too many people are interested." "How about I lend a hand?" "R-really?" Tyrannus nodded. "Of course. What kind of friend would I be if I couldn't help out those who need me?" Fluttershy beamed and hugged Tyrannus tightly. "Oh, thank you Ty!" "You're welcome 'Shy. But you're gonna have to let go of me if we're gonna get going." "Oh. Sure! Just need to put the flyers in my backpack. I'll be a little slow because the flyers make my pack heavy." "Easy fix." Fluttershy soon found herself being carried on Tyrannus's back. "Better?" "Y-yes.", Fluttershy said with a slight blush. 'He's so warm.' Fluttershy held on a bit tighter to Tyrannus. 'Maybe I'll just take a little nap....' Tyrannus kept on walking, and soon arrived at the shelter, and noticed Fluttershy dreaming away. 'MAN she's adorable.', Tyrannus thought with a smile before lightly shaking Fluttershy. "Wakey, wakey sleeping beauty. We're here." "Nnnhh? Oh! I'm so sorry!", Fluttershy blushed! "I must've fallen asleep on your back." "Was I good pillow?" Fluttershy's face flushed red! "I'll take that as a yes. Well, no use keeping the critters waiting." The two went inside, and set to work caring for the animals. Fluttershy smiled at how much the animals seemed to like Tyrannus. Fang even took a break from playing with the dogs to see the animals warming up to Tyrannus. 'He's certainly good with animals. And he's kind of handsome too.', Fluttershy thought. The group's time soon ended, and they headed home. Tyrannus then approached Fluttershy. "Hey Fluttershy?" "Yes Ty?" "You wanna duel? I've got a bit of time to kill." "Oh...no thank you. There's no way my deck would ever win." "Come on. You'll never know if you never try. I'll even let you have the first move. You don't have to be scared. I'll be with you every step of the way. OK?" "O..okay.", Fluttershy said with a small smile. Tyrannus carried Fluttershy on his back, and headed for the duel park. The two pulled their decks and duel disks out of their backpacks, and got ready to duel. Tyrannus: 8000 Fluttershy: 8000 "Okay." Fluttershy looked over her cards. 'Oh dear. There's no cards I can use right now! But maybe this trap can help.' "I s-set a card and end my turn. If that's alirght with you." "I draw!" Tyrannus looked at his cards. "I play Trade-In to discard a level 8 monster from my hand to draw two new cards. Then I can draw two new cards! Now I summon Petiranodon! Now I'll attack you directly!" Petiranodon flew at Fluttershy directly! "I activate my trap! Sakurestu Armor! Um, if that's okay with you Ty. It destroys a monster that chooses to attack." Petiranodon hit a barrier that shocked him, and sent him to the graveyard. "That actually helps me out.", Tyrannus said with a smile. "If Petiranodon is destroyed by a card effect, I can special summon a level 4 or higher dinosaur-type monster from my deck! I special summon Black Tyranno! The only downside is that he can't attack this turn. That's all for me." "I draw! If that's alright with you that is.", Fluttershy said timidly. "I summon a monster in defense mode." 'Good thing Winged Kuriboh prevents battle damage when he's destroyed. Oh, but I don't want him to get hurt!' "I end my turn." "You're worried about your monster aren't you?", Tyrannus asked as he drew his next card. Fluttershy blushed! "Don't worry. It's good to care about them. And you won't have to worry about your monster. But first, I summon Soul-Devouring Oviraptor and activate her effect! I can take a dinosaur-type monster from my deck, and add it to my hand or send it to my graveyard." Tyrannus searched through his deck, and found what he was looking for. "I'll add this dinosaur to my hand. Then I'll banish the two dinosaurs from my graveyard to special summon the monster I added! Come on out Ultimate Conductor Tyranno! First, Black Tyranno attacks you directly because all you have are defense mode monsters!" Black Tyranno charged forward, jumped over Fluttershy's monster, and licked her! "Hope you're happy that he doesn't bite girls." "Th-thank you.", Fluttershy said with a small smile as Black Tyranno stomped his way back to Tyrannus's field. "No problem. But my attack is far from over! I'll attack your monster with Ultimate Conductor Tyranno! Now his effect activates! Since it's the start of the damage step, I can inflict 1000 points of damage since your monster's in defense mode! Then your monster's sent to the graveyard!" "You kinda helped me too! Um, if you don't mind. When Winged Kuriboh is sent to the graveyard from the field, I take no battle damage for the rest of the turn! And since the battle phase is over, I can discard Kuribohrn to the graveyard to special summon one monster that was destroyed by battle this turn. Now Winged Kuriboh is back to my field." "Not bad Fluttershy.", Tyrannus said with a kind smile. "Nice focus on revival." Tyrannus: 8000 Fluttershy: 4400 "Oh...thank you Ty.", Fluttershy said with a slight blush as she looked at the next card she drew. 'Oh my. Just what I need!' "I play Transcendent Wings! I tribute Winged Kuriboh and discard two cards from my hand to special summon Winged Kuriboh LV 10 from my deck!" Winged Kuriboh transformed in a flash of light! When the light faded, he was wearing dragon-like armor and his wings had grown! "I end my turn. If that's alright with you that is Ty." "Fine by me.", Tyrannus said as he drew his next card. 'Looks like she's starting to become a little less shy now.' "I'll attack your monster with Ultimate Conductor Tyranno!" 'Here goes nothing!' "I activate Winged Kuriboh LV 10's effect! I tribute him to destroy all attack mode monsters you control! Then you take their combined attack points as damage! Please don'w be mad about this!" Fluttershy closed her eyes as Winged Kuriboh exploded in a massive blast of light! Wiping out all of Tyrannus's monsters! Tyrannus was knocked to the ground from the force of the blast as his life points took a massive hit! "I guess...your field's extinct Ty." Tyrannus let out a chuckle."I guess it is. I end my turn with a face-down. I told you some of the smallest monsters have the most powerful effects. I guess I was on the receiving end of it though." Tyrannus: 100 Fluttershy: 4400 "Oh! I'm sorry!" "Hey, no need to apologize Fluttershy.", Tyrannus said with a smile. "You're doing great. I've got only 100 life points left." "Oh. In that case, I draw! I summon Kuriboh and attack you directly!" "I activate my trap! Secret Blast! This inflicts 300 points of damage for each monster you control!" Fluttershy winced as she took a small bit of damage, but won the duel with Kuriboh scratching away the last of Tyrannus's life points! "I...won?", Fluttershy asked. Tyrannus smiled as he walked over to her. "You sure did. Great duel Fluttershy." "Oh..." Fluttershy then decided to do something VERY out of character. She craned her neck, and KISSED Tyrannus on the lips! She blushed like crazy after she broke the kiss. "Thank you." Fluttershy then noticed the blush on Tyrannus's face. "Um, Ty? Are you okay?" "Th-that was my first kiss.", Tyrannus stammered. "I'm glad it was from a beautiful girl." "Y-you think I'm beautiful?", Fluttershy asked. Tyrannus nodded. "Well...want to do that again before we say goodbye?" Tyrannus smiled as he and Fluttershy shared a kiss before going their separate ways. "Goodbye Ty." "See you tomorrow Fluttershy." As she watched him leave, Fluttershy's heart was pounding! 'My first kiss. THIS WAS MY FIRST KISS!', she thought as she headed home.
