"Behold those that have sinned lined before you and Administrate your Judgement! Lumenize, Executioner's Destruction!"
"Standing in the Dark I will use the Shadows to guarantee the Sun will rise! Lumenize! Shadows of the Sun!"
"Spike Drake has the first move." The announcer began.
"Right Charge and draw!" He declared. " I equip Shadowscale sword, Dragoshadow. Next I cast Dragon Shadow Shuffle." Spike roared rushing right out of the gates to set his field up. Before rushing at Arid striking him with the sword. Dropping his life from 8 to 7.
"The move ends. Arid's Turn." The announcer declared.
"Draw and Charge And Draw." Arid said before getting a wicked smile. "Behold the Gates of Tartarus brought to life. I set Gate of Verdict, Judgement" Behind Arid and Soulvaag A massive Fiery gate chained up broke where some screams of pain can be heard as the gates are pounded on from the inside. "Next I activate Damian's Decision Milling the top 2 cards of my deck gaining one gauge and adding a card to my hand." Doing as describes. "Next I call to the left Chaotic Hunt Jaiiler, Soku."
"Ooh another catch to throw with the rest of the Prisoners? Seems Kinda small." It sang while playing with its net.
"Activating Soku's effect I mill two cards and draw one. Now I call Headhunter Jailer, Sai to the right." A black dragon appeared from the mist with spikes piercing its cloak and wielding two scythes. "I pay one gauge now and equip Purgatory Sword, Silver Givson and I activate its affect. I mill one card and pay one gauge and i draw again." he declared as black and silver sword appeared in front of him
"Why are you destroying your own Deck so much?" Spike asked confused. Arid could only smile at this.
"I activate the skill of my gates by destroying 2 more cards from my deck I'll gain one gauge!" The chains from the gate behind him shot forward and struck his scythe pulling 2 cards out of it and shattering it before a new gauge appeared. "I pay 3 gauge and call to the left The warden of Tartarus, and the who shall judge your sins. Master of the Searing Executioners, Gagalgarios." Appearing in a great pillar of fire that ravaged the earth around it a massive black dragon dug its ways out as 5 more chains from the gate of verdict shoot out and rip cards from Arid's deck destroying them. "When Gagalgarios Appears I have to sacrifice 5 cards from my deck but if i have 15 or more cards in my drop he gains a special gift an extra critical and Penetrate!" the black dragon roared as magma seemed to explode under its skin. "Go Gagalgarios Show this whelp why you are the Master!" The black dragon reared itself as it smashed spike under its claws dealing 3 damage dropping his health from 10 to 7. "NOW DOUBLE ATTACK!" It proceeded to blast black magma directly onto Spike who called out in shock from the attack as his health dropped from 7 to 4.
"Such... Power.."Spike groaned as the black dragon backed up.
"Don't Give up spike!" Mekarm called out. "You Defeated Me after all You can Handle This guy!"
"I'll show you the difference in our skill!" Arid Declared as he beat his wings propelling him forward passing by Spike before slashing him at his knees Dropping his health further down to 3. Spike couldn't even keep up with the movements from Arid when he cut him at the knees making him fall forward. Using the sword to help stay up but on his knees. "GO Headhunter!" He called out. The Smaller Dragon appearing before Spike lowering both of his scythes like scissors at his neck before slashing through him forcing a card to disappear from spikes deck as his health drops to 2.
"SPIKE!" Starlight called seeing the last attack, as she joined the spectators of the
"The turn ends. Spike Drakes Move!" The announcer said.
"Stand Up Spike! You are the Shadow of the Sun are you Not!" Shadow Challenged, "Use the Darkness and Stand Up and Fight!"
"Stay down Kid and Give up." Arid said Pointing the scythe at him after impaling the sword into the ground. "This is the level of difference between a real fighter and some wannabe." Spikes eyes shifted in that moment becoming more draconic as he forced himself up holding the sword before him. "Your Getting up? You intend to keep fighting? FINE I'LL END YOU THE WAY YOU DESIRE THEN!
"I'm NOT GIVING UP! DRAW AND CHARGE AND DRAW! I BUDDY CALL SHADOW DRAGON TO THE CENTER!" Spike declared the dragon jumping into the fray.
"Take this and Stand stronger than Before!" Shadow called back administering the buddy gift healing 1 health point back to to spike. "Next Since a Shadow Dragon Attribute card was called I gauge one card And Now I activate my Shadow Dragons Ability 'Call for Friends' Milling my top two cards of the deck to call any other shadow dragons to the field." The deck burst with darkness but nothing else happened. "So i guess no friends this time around but thats fine. I pay 4 gauge and evolve the Shadow Dragon in my Center. Come Forth Anatta Overshadow Dragon! and with its skill All Shadow Dragon Attribute Cards Gain 7000 power and 7 Critical. And Since Shadows Are always Growing I'll call in two more Shadow Dragons to the left and Right." Two more pure black Anatta Overshadow Dragons appeared in the left and right vs the one in the purple armor as the sword pulsated violently. "The Left Shadow will attack your Right!" The first pure black shadow dragon tore through the Headhunter shattering it. "THe right shadow will attack your Left!"
"I Pay one Gauge and Cast Helles Shield!" The attack was stopped by large shield that once struck broke up into 3 pieces two that flew towards Arid's guage and joined it and one that ripped through Spike Dropping his health back to 2.
"Wh-what just happened?" Spike looked confused.
"My helles shield Nullified your attack and since i had 10 plus cards in my drop I gained 2 gauge and since i had 15 plus cards i got deal you one damage. You Will not win." Arid Said coldly. The fight was drawing a crowd.
"A-amazing strong in offense as well in defense?" Mekarm stood shocked at the power of the Searing Executioners. As a small Fairy flew past him to stargazer.
"Big bro is watching?" Star asked the fairy nodded when Mekarm saw. "Great," She paused cupping her hooves to her mouth before calling out. "HEY ARID!"
"WHAT!" Arid roared annoyed at Star.
"Big Bro Curry Is watching you Fight!" This made Arid Smile.
"Then I Can't Lose or i Risk embarrassing him! COME AT ME RUNT!" Arid Challenged full of fire.
"OH I'll Come at you Alright! I ATTACK YOU!" He said As he thrust his rapier out towards Arid It split into 8 different points as it reached around Anatta before it went to crash into Arid. Arid only sighed annoyed.
"You just don't learn do you kid... I CAST ANOTHER HELLES SHIELD!" The 8 points struck the shield repeatedly till the shield broke into 3 pieces again like before. 2 went to the gauge and one tore through spike dropping his health down to 1.
"Anatta... attack Gagalgarios!" Anatta unleashed a torrent of shadow flames which overhwelmed the black dragon destroying it in an explosion which dropped Arid's Health by 2 putting him at 5. "Final PHASE!"
"WAIT SPIKE ITS NOT-" Shadow began to call out to him only to be interrupted .
"To stand Against the Truths of the Dark one must be willing Accept the Darkness in Himself!" Spike Claimed. "I Cast Shadow Dragon Arts, Dividing Shadows" " Anatta's Left claw bursted into shadow Needle's Destroying the item and the gates.
"I CAST Shadow Crusader." SPikes health increased by 2 as the shadows formed around him but nothing else happened to Arid his health remaining at 5.
"Why didn't you take any damage?"
"Because of my spell shadow crusader I can sacrifice 3 cards from my deck to reduce the damage i would've taken by 3. thanks making your cards weaker By the way." Arid laughed.
"Youngling you are to wet behind the ears for this fight." Soulvaag stated.
"I tried to warn you spike..." Anatta said softly.
"The move ends. Arid's Turn Begins." The announcer stated.
"Draw, and then Charge and draw." selecting one of the cards in his hand. "I Set once more The gates of Verdict Judgement. Welcome to Tartarus!" The gates returned Full force behind Arid the chains whipping about. "Next i activate the secondary effect of Gate of Verdict Judgement. Paying 3 gauge I resurrect one of the cursed Souls of Tartarus. Come forth Hellfire Executioners Dragon, Gagalgarios." The gate is rocked as something from inside of it pounds against it. The chains are heard creaking as fire licks through the openings before they shatter and the gate opens up. A single card come forth and lands in Arid's Claws as it lights itself with hellfire before the chains fix themselves and seal back the Gate. "I call to the left Glutton Jailer, Glugiu Then I activate the first effect of my Gate of Verdict I mill 2 more cards and gain one gauge." The chains of the gate lash out and grab destroying 2 more cards from his deck as a third chain forces the gauge to increase to 3. "Now I Pay 3 gauge and Sacrifice Glugiu, come forth Pinnacle warden of your own Prison, Hellfire Executioners Dragon, Gagalgarios!" A blazing vortex of hellfire rocked the field surrounding the fighters into the eye of the blaze as the Volcanic Black Dragon from before appears the hellfire engulfing him and dancing over his body as it roars in anger. the Vortex itself seems to be consumed by its flames as it settles and everyone can see the field once more. "You see here you little runt, this is what a true fighter looks like. It doesn't matter who I attack I still win. Let me explain how. Whenever this version of Gagalgarios attacks you if either one of us has 25 or more cards in the drop we both loose the top two cards of our deck I gain 1 gauge, and most importantly you get dealt 2 damage for each attack. By the way, He has double attack." Arid said smugly. "You weren't even enough of a challenge for me to use my buddy." He stops and looks at Gagalgarios "Sick 'em Gagalgarios." The Blazing Dragon roars before it looses hellfire upon the shadow dragon on the right. The overbearing flames destroying cards form Spikes deck and dropping him down to 1 life. Then turning and Pouncing over Anatta before engulfing Spike's left monster zone in hellfire erupting outwards and blowing Spike away as his health dropped to 0. Anatta Disappeared back into a normal Shadow Dragon before disappearing into Spike's Shadow.
"Winner Arid." The announcer Declared.
"See Mercury! I told you I can't lose to anyone but you!" Arid boasted to the crowd as Hellfire Disappeared. Mekarm and Starlight both rushed to Spike only to see him being helped to his feet by a White Pony with Bat-like wings.
