The kirin bowed in respect of her opponent before taking her stance. "I am Maiden of the clouds who shall rain down despair upon all who face my clan, Shizu. Lumenize Great castle Defense." Her case turned into a telescope. "I am her buddy, Sky Ninja, Yamigarasu." "I am Spike Sol Drake, Standing in the Dark I will use the Shadows to guarantee the Sun will rise! Lumenize! Shadows of the Sun!" He declared taking on his normal look with clothes and rapier in hand. "I am his buddy Shadow Dragon." "Spike Drake Has the first move." "Draw and charge and draw I call my buddy Shadow Dragon to the center." As shadow entered the field he gave a weak roar that added 1 extra health to Spike. "I pay one gauge to activate his skill sending the top two cards of my deck to the drop." 2 cards floated and shattered revealing they were shadow dragons. "since 2 shadow dragons were milled i get to call both of them to the left and right. Next I'll attack with the shadow dragon in my center. The Shadow in the center darted forth and headbutted the kirin dealing 1 damage. "The move ends Shizu's Turn begins." "Draw and charge and draw." Taking a deep breath. "I Play Clear Serenity to add 3 cards from my deck to the gauge. Next I call to the left Sniping ninja Yoichi and buddy call sky ninja Yamigarasu to the center. Next I set Secret Scrolls" As Yamigarasu descended he turned. "For the maiden in the clouds i promise you Victory!" He declared granting her health back to 10. "Sniping Ninja Take aim and strike down he who harmed me." Shizu Declared. "Yes your highness." It said before taking aim and firing a strong blue lazer that wiped out the shadow dragon in the center. "Yamigarasu Attack his left position shadow." "Nothing escapes my sight!" HE said flying high above before firing down onto the shadow Dragon. "the move ends, Spike Drake's turn." "Draw charge and draw I cast Dragonic Shadow Shuffle" Three cards jumped from the rapier one shot to the gauge one filled someones shadow and the other into his hand. "Next I call another Shadow Dragon, I pay one gauge to activate his skill Call for friends." 2 cards shattered and none returned. "Darn no one came... I call to the left a shadow dragon. And attack your center with it and my left." "Target is in my sights." Yoichi declared firing at Spike making him lose a life. "Cast Ninja Arts, Snake gaze rest your center." Her eyes became menacing suddenly as her life dropped by one forcing the shadow dragon in the center to quiver in fear "That weakness will not be escaped from!" Yamigarasu stated as he fired a shot just before the 2 shadow dragons ganged up on him. Lowering spikes health to match his opponent at 9. "The move ends Shizu's turn begins." "Draw and charge and draw. I activate the ability of Secret scrolls I pay one gauge and add one Ninja Arts Card from deck to hand. Next Yoichi Attack His center!" "My sight is unfailing." Another shot and another shadow dragon was gone. "The move ends Spike Drakes turn begins." "Stand and Draw, Charge and Draw, Perfect I cast Dragonic Shadow Gauge!" 5 shadows jumped from his sword and 3 gauge appeared. " Call Another Shadow dragon to the center. I pay 1 gauge to call for friends." the top card milled 2 times over and no new cards were called. "Next I pay 4 gauge and evolve the center Shadow Dragon. Into Anatta Overshadow Dragon!" All the shadows began to amass together turning into a large dragon with amethyst like armor. "I am one and all, nothing and everything. A shadow with form yet formless!" The large Dragon Roared. "with his ability all shadows dragons gain 7 thousand power and 7 critical. Lets go to the attack Phase. Shadow Dragon on the left will attack you for 8." "Cast Art of Shadow Stitching! Nullifying the attack!." As soon as the dragon began its attack purple ribbons with blades at the edges wrapped the shadow up before pinning it to the left position. "Fine then Anatta Will attack you!" "I was waiting for that I cast Ninja Arts, Half Kill! Cancelling the attack and sending all the cards in your soul to the drop!" "AGH!" Anatta Cried in pain as its soul dropped and the other shadows power drained out of them. "I end." Spike said sullenly. "the turn ends Shizu's Turn begins." "Draw and charge and draw, Pay 1 gauge to add another ninja arts card to my hand. Then i Call another Yoichi to the right. Who shall then attack your center." The shot fired caused the armor to turn to shrapnel hitting spike for 3 damage dropping him to 6. "And another attack from another Yoichi." "Should've thought better than to challenge our maiden kid." The Yoichi fired and dealt another damage to Spike dropping him to 5." "The turn ends Spike's turn begins." "Draw...." "Have you lost the will to continue?" Shizu asks her opponent. "As you can tell with the way the match is going your deck does not stand a chance." "Its over the kid is toast." Spike heard Arid speaking from the teams section. "I don't get why your so obsessed with him Mercurial. "What happened to that rebellious spirit i once felt in you Spike? Are you just going to roll over and die from an attack like that?" The shadows spoke. "Never again..."Gritting his teeth Spikes eyes went slightly Draconian. "If I am weak now I will get stronger! I shall never allow myself to fall so far behind my opponent that I lose sight of what needs to be done." Darkness began shift over Spike and drown him out. Suddenly that same darkness flowed into his core deck case. "Charge and Draw!" The card spike drew dripped in seething darkness as if it was newly made from the rage and despair in his heart. "I call to the center another Shadow dragon! Next I pay 3 gauge and fuse 3 shadows from the drop into the center Shadow dragon to create, Limitless Dragon, Emperor Shadow Dragon. A new dragon covered in an armor of diamonds and Silver metal flowed forth from it as bipedal dragon with claw like wings stood before spike in his center position. "I am the final emperor of the Dark. The true ruler of shadows! Give in to despair and be brought into my light!" The dragon spoke. "I enter battle phase!" Spike declared. "Shadows amass with more shadows." 2 shadows flew into The Emperor and his dark aura spread to the other shadow dragons. Their power rising their defense rising and all of them gaining a critical "I attack your left with the emperor!" Spike declared. "Cast Ninja arts, Half Kill! Loose all your soul and nullify the attack!" Shizu declared." "Fine he stands with double attack! The shadow dragon on my left will attack your left!"

"Wait it gained double attack as well?! Doesn't matter cast! Ninja Arts, Steel Ball. GIving my Yoichi 3 thouseand power and defense and counterattack!" The Shadow dragon went to to strike that Yoichi but was interrupted by a steel ball striking the ground before it. "Unfortunately your monster has more defense than mine has attack."
