//------------------------------// // Inzektor Infestation // Story: Yu-Gi-Oh! EG: Neo W.R.G.P World Arc // by foxmaster //------------------------------// “ And now taking the last leg for team Silverwing is our very own Silver chance and taking the last leg for team Miraculous is Marinette Dupain-Cheng, “The Mc shouted as both duelists drew their opening hand. DUEL Silver Chance:4000 Marinette Dupain-Cheng:4000 “ My turn I draw,” Silver said as he drew his sixth card. Silver was thinking carefully since Marinette’s deck and strategy are still a mystery to him since she didn’t take the track during the last round. Silver figured his best bet was to play defense and wait to see what Marinette does. “ I set two cards facedown and end my turn. “ What is Silver doing? This isn’t like him at all,” Lightning said. “ No, it’s exactly like him. Think about it. We didn’t get to see Marinette in action so her deck and strategy are unknown to us so Silver is playing some defense while waiting to find out,” Lyra said. “ My turn I draw,” Marinette said while drawing her sixth card. Marinette was cautious of Silver’s set cards since she knew from experience one of them could turn things around if she was not careful. “ First I summon Inzektor Dragonfly in attack mode. A human-like creature wearing red armor that resembled a dragonfly with a suped-up crossbow appeared and locked onto Silver. Inzektor Dragonfly LV:3 ATK:1000 “ Next I equip the Inzektor Hornet from my hand to my Dragonfly. Dragonfly was suddenly equipped with a pile driver-like device that had a hornet motif that powered up Dragonfly. 1000 + 500 = 1500 3 + 3 = 6  “ Next by sending Hornet to my GY I can destroy one card on the field so I destroy the set card on the left. Dragonfly fired the pile driver which unleashed the spike which nailed Silver’s set card which revealed to be Drowning Mirror Force. 1500 - 500 = 1000 6 - 3 = 3 “ Drowning Mirror Force. Not bad. If I charged in recklessly my monsters would have been sent back to my Deck but enough about that on with the duel since I sent an Inzektor equipped to Dragonfly to my GY I can Special Summon another Inzektor monster from my Deck so welcome to the game Inzektor Centipede. A big guy wearing bronze armor resembling a centipede with pincer-like gauntlets appeared next to Dragonfly. Inzektor Centipede LV:3 ATK:1600 “ Next my Centipede equips the Hornet in my GY to himself. Centipede acquired the same pile driver from last time. “ Next I send Hornet to the GY to destroy your other set card. The Pile driver destroyed Silver’s other set card which revealed to be a Trap Marinette hasn’t seen before. “ Congrats you just destroyed the trap Clearwing Core Resonance. When this card is destroyed by a card effect I can Special Summon a Clearwing Monster from my Deck in Attack Mode so I Special Summon Clearwing Fire Maiden in attack mode. A girl with short red hair wearing red armor and a sword of the same color unleashing a blade made of yellow energy appeared on Silver’s Field. Clearwing Fire Maiden LV:3 ATK:1700 “ When Clearwing Fire Maiden is Normal or Special Summoned she inflicts 500 points of damage to you. Clearwing Fire Maiden unleashed a small burst of fire on Marinette. Silver Chance:4000 Marinette Dupain-Cheng:3500 “ Not bad but it’s still my turn and I’m far from done. When my centipede sends an equip card to the GY he allows me to add another Inzektor monster from my Deck to my hand so I will add Giga Mantis to my hand. After adding her declared card to her hand Marinette continued her move. “ Next I equip my Centipede with the Giga Mantis that is in my hand and when this monster is equipped my Centipede’s original attack points become 2400. Centipede powered up as a pair of giant blades appeared on his arms. 1600 = 2400 “ Next I activate the Equip Spell Insect Booster Wing I can only equip this to a Level three or below Insect-type Monster and it allows that monster to attack you directly however the damage from that attack will only be half of the equipped monsters attack points and I equip it onto my Dragonfly. Dragonfly’s wings were replaced with a pair of metal wings with thrusters built into them. “ Now it’s time to battle. First, my Dragonfly will attack you directly. Dragonfly rocketed into the air before locking on to Silver and then fired its crossbow at Silver which nailed him for a small amount of damage. Silver Chance:3500 Marinette Dupain-Cheng:3500 “ Next my Centipede will attack Clearwing Fire Maiden. Centipede was ready to slice up Silver’s monster until he reacted to it. “ Fire maiden’s effect now activates when she is targeted for an attack she bounces back to my hand to negate your attack and Special Summons Clearwing Light Maiden from either my Hand or Deck. Fire maiden suddenly glowed before being replaced by a girl with long blonde hair wearing a white dress wielding a gold and white sword also projecting a blade of light. Clearwing Light Maiden LV:4 ATK:2000 “ Not bad I set two cards facedown and end my turn,” Marinette said as two set cards appeared behind dragonfly and centipede. “ My turn I draw,” Silver said as he drew his sixth card. Now that Silver knew what kind of deck Marinette used he was ready for it. “ First I summon Clearwing Fire Maiden in attack mode. Fire maiden returned and appeared next to Light Maiden. Clearwing Fire Maiden LV:3 ATK:1700 “ And just like before you take 500 points of damage. Marinette was suddenly burned again by Fire Maiden. Silver Chance:3500 Marinette Dupain-Cheng:3000 “ Next I activate the Spell Synchro Soul Strike,” Silver said as a spell with an image of Stardust Dragon in spirit form flying towards a Timelord monster appeared. By sending a Synchro monster from my Extra Deck to my GY you take damage equal to half of that monster’s attack points so I’m sending my Clearwing Synchro Dragon to my GY. As soon as silver sent his ace monster to his GY Clearwing Synchro Dragon appeared in spirit form. “ My Clearwing has 2500 attack points, half of that is 1250 so you will be taking 1250 points of damage. Clearwing flew at Marinette before turning into energy that blasted her. Silver Chance:3500 Marinette Dupain-Cheng:1750 “ Now that the stage is set I tune my Level three Fire Maiden with my Level four Light Maiden to Synchro Summon the monster that will seal our victory. Fire Maiden ignited herself before bursting into three stars which turned into three green rings that encircled Light Maiden and turned her into four stars that fell into alignment. LV4 + LV3 = LV7  “ Mighty warrior that sets the world on fire takes form and unleash all of your magnificent power on my foes! Synchro Summon! Rise! Level Seven! Clearwing Paladin! Clearwing Paladin landed gracefully onto the field before raising her sword upward and swinging it. Clearwing Paladin LV:7 ATK:2800 “ Cool monster, too bad she won’t be of much help I activate my Trap Ant Queen’s Command,” Marinette said as a Trap with an image of a queen ant ordering her guards to attack a giant that was standing over the anthill flipped face up. When you Special Summon a Monster that monster loses 800 attack points for every Face-up Insect-Type Monster I control so with two of them your Paladin loses 1600 attack points. Suddenly Clearwing Paladin was screaming in pain as thousands of little fire ants bit her. 2800 - 1600 = 1200 “ Not bad but I also have a couple of surprises for you. “ First Since I used Fire maiden as Synchro Material for a Clearwing Synchro Monster I can destroy one Spell or Trap you control so I will destroy Giga Mantis. The big blades on Centipede suddenly caught fire before vanishing. 2400 - 800 = 1600 “ And next up is my Light Maiden. Since she was used as synchro material for a Clearwing synchro Monster, that monster gains 1000 attack points. Paladin powered up while recovering from the ant bites. 1200 + 1000 = 2200 “ And I assume there is more?” Marinette asked. “ Good call, a lot more. Once per turn my Paladin equips a Clearwing Synchro Monster that is in my GY and gains that monster’s attack points and effects so Clearwing Synchro Dragon will be equipped to my Paladin. Paladin suddenly began to glow while a pair of wings formed on her back while she powered up. 2200 + 2500 = 4700 “ Now it’s time to battle. Clearwing Paladin attacks Inzektor Dragonfly with Genesis Sabre. Paladin unleashed her many blades until Marinette reacted. “ I figured you would try and end this. I activate the Trap Wonder Xyz this allows me to Xyz Summon during the Battle Phase so I overlay my Dragonfly and centipede in order to build the overlay network. Both Dragonfly and Centipede turned into streams of purple energy before entering a galaxy-like portal and exploding. “ From the Realm of darkness, I summon forth the strongest insect that wears the strongest armor to defend me in this fight! Xyz Summon! Appear! Rank Three Inzektor Shield Beetle! A big guy wearing Silver armor that resembled a Hercules beetle carrying a massive shield appeared before hiding behind his shield. Inzektor Shield Beetle RANK:3 DEF:3000 UNITS:2 “ Nice try but your beetle is still too weak to stop my attack,” Silver pointed out while his Paladin continued her attack. “ Guess again. My Shield Beetel gains 1000 defense points for every overlay unit he has so since he has two he gains 2000 defense points which adds up to 5000 which is enough to block your attack. 3000 + 2000 = 5000 Paladin bashed her sword against Shield Beetle’s shield which resulted in a loud noise that not only repelled Paladin but also caused a small amount of damage to Silver. Silver Chance:3200 Marinette Dupain-Cheng:1750 “ Clever move but I’m not done yet Since my Paladin failed to destroy your monster in battle I can Special Summon the Tuner Monster Clearwing Shiba in attack mode. A Shiba Inu wearing white and green armor with a little sword in its mouth appeared next to Clearwing Paladin. Clearwing Shiba LV:1 ATK:500 “ When my Shiba is Special Summoned I can use him to Synchro Summon during the Battle Phase. So I tune my level one Shiba with my level Seven Paladin to Synchro Summon your demise. Shiba leaped into the air before turning into a single star and then a single green ring that encircled Paladin and turned her into seven stars that fell into alignment. LV7 + LV1 = LV8 “ Oh, mighty dragon that shines brighter than the sun evolves and shine brighter with wings made of crystal and power! Synchro Summon! Evolve! Level Eight! Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon! Crystal wing flew above the track before landing next to Silver. Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon LV:8 ATK:3000 “ Impressive monster but this one is also not strong enough to break my defense,” Marinette said. " Not yet it’s not because When Clearwing Shiba is used as Synchro Material I can draw one card and if it's a Clearwing Monster I send it to my GY and the monster that was Synchro Summoned gains attack points equal to that of the discarded monster until the End Phase of this turn. Silver closed his eyes and put everything into this draw. Silver swiftly drew his card and after seeing what it was smiled. “ Just what I needed. I drew the Monster Clearwing Chaos Bringer which has 2400 attack points. As soon as Silver discarded his card the spirit of a big strong man with a massive sword wearing white garb appeared behind Crystalwing before powering it up. 3000 + 2400 = 5400 “ Now it's time to continue my assault. Crystal Wing attack Shield Beetle with Crystal Edge Gale. Crystal wing charged at Shield Beetle only for Marinette not to look the least bit worried. “ My beetle is not going anywhere because when he is about to be destroyed by battle I can detach one overlay unit to negate his destruction. Shield Beetle absorbed one of his Overlay Units into himself to fend off crystal wing’s attack. 2 - 1 = 1 5000 - 1000 = 4000 Not bad. I end my turn by setting two cards face down,” Silver said as two set cards appeared behind Crystalwing. 5400 - 2400 = 3000 “ My turn I draw,” Marinette said as she drew her second card. Marinette looked displeased with her draw since she did not have anything that could help her now. She noticed a clutch action card coming up and accelerated for it. Silver also saw the card and accelerated. The two of them were neck and neck but in the end, Marinette managed to grab the card and activated it. “ I activate the Action Spell Hand Recharge that allows me to send all the cards in my hand back to my deck, shuffle them and draw five new cards. Marinette drew her cards and smiled after seeing she drew just what she needed. “ Next I activate the Spell Rank Up Magic Miraculous Force that allows me to Rank up my Shield Beetle into an Insect-Type Xyz monster that is twice the rank of my Shield Beetle so I rebuild the overlay network with my Rank three shield Beetle. Shield Beetle turned into a stream of purple energy before entering a galaxy-like portal and exploding. “ Beetle with the strongest armor evolve into a valiant knight with armor of gold! Rank Up Xyz Evolution! Rise Up! Rank Six! Inzektor Exa-beetle! A big beetle-like monster with golden armor and a mighty lance of the same color appeared and brandished said lance at Crystalwing. Inzektor Exa-Beetle RANK:6 ATK:1000 UNITS:3 “ Almost forgot, Miraculous Force along with the targeted monster’s overlay units also attach to Exa-Beetle but that is not important. Exa-Beetle’s effect activates when he is Xyz Summoned I can equip one monster from either of our GYs and he gains half of that monster’s attack so I will equip the Giga Mantis in my GY which makes Exa-Beetle’s original attack points 2400 plus another 1200 for equipping him. Exa-Beetle now had Giga Mantis’s blades equipped. 1000 = 2400 + 1200 = 3600 “ Next I activate the Equip Spell Inzektor Shield - Zektaigis and equip it onto Exa-Beetle. Exa-Beetle now had a black and gold shield to go with his lance. “ While this card is equipped to a monster that monster’s effects cannot be negated nor can the equipped monster be destroyed by card effects. Silver looked a bit displeased with Marinette figuring out his strategy so soon. “ Now it’s time I showed you what exa-Beetle can do by detaching one overlay unit I send one of my Face-up cards along with one of yours to the GY so I’m sending both Zektaigis and crystal Wing to the GY. Exa-Beetle absorbed one of his Overlay Units into the lance in his left hand before stabbing it into the ground creating a shockwave. 3 - 1 = 2 The shockwave destroyed the shield and was about to destroy Crystal Wing until Silver reacted. “ I activate the Trap Interdimensional Matter Transporter, This allows me to banish my Crystal wing until the End Phase. A futuristic device appeared and zapped Crystal Wing off the field. “ No matter. My real plan succeeded. When Zektaigis is sent to my GY it allows me to add a Level four or Lower Inzektor Monster from my deck to my hand so I will add Inzektor Ladybug to my hand. After adding her card to her hand Marinette pulled another card from her hand. “ Next I activate the Spell Six Star Return this allows me to Special Summon up to two monsters from my GY as long as their combined levels equal six so welcome back Inzektor Dragonfly and Centipede. Both of Marinette’s monsters returned and looked ready to go. Inzektor Dragonfly LV:3 ATK:1000 Inzektor Centipede LV:3 ATK:1600 “ I use Dragonfly’s effect to equip Ladybug to himself then send Ladybug to the GY to increase dragonfly’s level by two. Dragonfly began to power up. 3 + 2 = 5 “ Dragonfly’s effect Special Summons Inzektor Hopper from the deck. A man wearing armor that resembled a grasshopper wielding a long blade appeared next to Centipede. Inzektor Hopper LV:4 ATK:1700 “ Next I will use the same effect on my Centipede. Ladybug equipped on to Centipede before going back to the GY to power up Centipede. 3 + 2 = 5 Centipede’s effect adds Inzektor Sword Zektkaliber from my deck to my hand. After adding her declared card to her hand Marinette continued her turn. “ Next I use my Level five Dragonfly and Centipede in order to build the Overlay Network. Both dragonfly and centipede turned into streams of purple energy before entering a galaxy-like portal and exploded. “ Mighty stag beetle of Silver takes form and unleash your fury on my foe! Xyz Summon! Rise! Rank Five! Inzektor Exa-Stag! A big silver stag beetle-like monster appeared and landed next to Exa-Beetle. Inzektor Exa-Stag RANK:5 ATK:800 UNITS:2 “ Next I activate Exa-Stag’s effect by detaching one overlay unit. I can equip a monster from either your field or GY onto Exa-Stag and gain half of that monster’s attack points and I think I will choose Clearwing Paladin. Exa-Stag absorbed one of his units into his claw before sending it into a portal. 2 - 1 = 1 Exa-stag yanked out Clearwing Paladin before absorbing and assimilating her to his body. 800 + 1400 = 2200 “ Now that my forces are gathered, time to battle. Exa-Beetle attack Silver Directly. Exa-beetle charged at silver and just when it looked like Silver was about to be struck by his lance he reacted. “ I’m not out yet. I activate the Continuous Trap Synchro Gravity Zone,” Silver said as a trap with an image of Gravity Warrior using his powers on an entire crater flipped face up and not only crushed Exa-Beetle under the heavy gravity but the rest of Marinette’s monsters as well. “ As long as this card is in play only Synchro monsters are allowed to attack any other kind will just be pinned down. “ You got me. Nothing more I can do so I end my turn,” Marinette said. “ And during the End Phase, Crystal Wing comes back,” Silver mentioned as Crystal Wing reappeared. Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon LV:8 ATK:3000 “ My turn I draw,” Silver said as he drew his second card. Silver enjoyed this match and drew the perfect card to end the match. “ Marinette this duel has been very fun and you managed to keep me on my toes but like all good things, it's time to end this. I activate the Spell Raigeki which destroys all your monsters. Suddenly a bolt of Lightning cleared away all of Marinette's monsters along with their equip cards. “ I will enter my Battle Phase and have Crystal Wing attack you Directly. Crystal Wing charged at Marinette who smiled despite losing all her Life Points. Silver Chance:3200 Marinette Dupain-Cheng:0 WINNER: Silver Chance “ And that’s it folks after such an intense match the winners are our own Team Silverwing,” The MC Shouted as Silver took his victory lap. As soon as Silver and Marinette returned to the stadium they all shook and a great duel. “ So where are you off to next?” Silver asked. “ We are going back to Paris since we no longer have any reason to stay here,” Adrian said. “ You're welcome to stay with us at my mansion for the night,” Silver offered. “ Really thank you, Silver,” Marinette said. “ Think nothing of it,” Silver said. And so after everything was packed up both teams went to Silver’s place for the night.
