//------------------------------// // Trial by fire // Story: EQG Yu-Gi-Oh War of Light and Darkness Strength and Friendship // by Neztrolove //------------------------------// The lights shut off sending both teens into darkness. Jeane reached his hand to his deck letting out a sigh. Do or die moment, I can win this. Its only sunset shimmer… the five time calvacade semifinalist and one of the few duel monsters players who your brother actually puts effort in to beat… not a lot but still more then most… more then you. "you're too tense." Sunset purred. "I'll order a masseuse when we get home… our home." she giggled creepily. Jeane was glad he couldn't see her in the dark. The duel platform lit up with technicolor light dimly illuminating the arena in neon light. Jeane's zones were outlined in that light and his deck zone glowed green indicating he draw his opening hand. Duel commencing, turn selection process complete. First turn Sunset Shimmer, duel! "Don't worry sweetie I'll make this fast. Don't want to embarrass you." Sunset teased drawing five cards. Jeane did the same, he could hardly keep his hands from shaking as he took a big gulp. He looked at his hand and then noticed that he had a workable hand and one who has a lot of combo starters. In modern yugioh setting up combos is important especially for Jeane's deck. "I start off this battle for your heart by summoning Salamangreat Gazelle in attack mode." The hologram showed a black deer with fire coming out of silver harness all over its body. Sunset cooed cutely. "you know jeane, this card reminds me of you. Its all sweet and innocent and all it takes is a little support to become what it is meant to be. That support comes from it's effect. I send Salamangreat Spinny to grave from Gazelle effect (1500/1000). Here it comes the salamangreat combo. Now she is gonna summon spinny but the question is whether she is gonna link summon which is what her archetypes extra deck should specialize in or if she is Gonna Xyz summon for megastallio… she doesn't have any of the fusions as those are coming in winter for the christmas season. "I activate spinny effect in grave as long as I control a Salamangreat I can special summon it to my side of the field and since it was sent to the grave by my salamangreat monster I can ignore the effect that banishes It when it is destroyed which means my spinny is gonna be here for the entirety of this duel." Sunset gloated then she raised her hand to the sky the hologram of red and black armadillo creature rolled up in a ball appeared on the field (1000/1500). "Now I Link summon my Spinny to summon the blazing feline of burning temptation… Salamangreat Balelynx." Spinny's body became an orb of light and shot up to an orange vortex like an inferno and in its place was a blue cat with a burning fire tail (500/link-1). "Now effect of Exceed Paralell Dragon from my hand. Since I link summoned a monster this turn and there is a an open zone which my balelynx points too I can special summon it though its attack and defense is halved as well its level." A white and serpentine dragon hologram appears staring toward the boy and then a red energy aura covered it and it writhed in pain as it shrunk slighty (1000/1000, Level 4). "and I'm not done yet cutie-pie. I activate the spell card Salamangreat circle to bring Salamangreat Meer to hand." Sunset's deck sunk into the platform, the ruffling of cards as the card she needed shot out of slot under the zone area. Sunsets deck reappeared. "Since I added Meer to hand without drawing it I can activate effect to reveal it and special summon it to field." the otterlike orange skinned creature had a burning fire striping down its back (800/600). "I'm almost done my darling then you can have your turn but I suggest you forfeit so we can get home for supper. I'm thinking sugarcube corner tommorrow so we can celebrate our union. I link summon using Xceed dragon as the material to summon Linguriboh" a small black bomblike creature with a green clock face that had two big but serious anime eyes glared at jeane as its fuse light and small sparks flew from its top (300/link-1). Damn guess we are using classic tournament rules. Meaning that you can summon any extra deck monster to any of your zones as long as they are not occupied. The boy felt the heat sunsets aura overwhelmed him. I need water… god it's so hot… is this part of the systems programming. "I end my turn by setting a single face down… your turn handsome." Sunset blew the boy kiss and smirked. Jeane drew his card and noticed it was Performage Trick clown. Okay this can be useful. "I start my turn by Summoning the mathamatician monster card in attack mode." Jeane slammed the card on the zone then felt all the base leave his voice as he saw it landed on the back row which is for spells/traps. He fixed his mistake, embarrassed. The holgram showed sparks of light which gave way to a man who seemed a dwarf in a wizard robe with math symbols on it and a staff which had a plus sign topper and wore glasses which hid his eyes. (1500/500) "Of course an adorable dork like you plays a card like that. I already know you were top of your class at middle school and passed the aptitude tests at last weeks students day with flying colors… I do love a man with both brains and beauty." Jeane blushed at the compliment then shook his head. "I activate Mathmaticians effect to send a level 4 or lower monster from my deck to my grave." Mathmatician began to wave his wand as a constellation of the plus symbol shifted into a minus symbol shifting finally into the roman numeral for four then blasting the ground into a vortex of math symbols into which a girl with clouds over her body, blonde hair and green eyes and dressed like an anime fantasty heroine into. The vortex remained as it began to rumble. "That card I just sent to the grave was shaddoll Wendi and she has an effect that says if she is sent to the Graveyard by card effect I can special summon another shaddoll in either face up or face down position and I choose to summon face down shaddoll squamata." out of the in a burst of plus symbols shot a worm made of gold metal surrounding crystallized darkness which disappeared into the zone and showed as a contious golden glow showing it was a set card. This is all I can do for now. I can destroy that balelynx but she is gonna hit me back with a better link monster so I should play defensively, luckily Mathmatician's effect will allow me to replace itself in my hand. "I will go to my battle phase." Jeane gulped felt a chill go down his spine and unbeknownst to him as the oppressing heat of sunsets aura was drowned by a deep cold. "Mathmatician Attack Balelynx." Mathmatician waved his wand shooting a bunch of numbers and math symbols at Balelynx surrounding it in a bind and crushing the cat as it shattered into card shards. Sunset life points: 3000 First damage of the game, now it's time to play defensive. "I set a facedown and pass." this trap card should not only keep me safe but will help me when I get one of my fusion spells. "I end my turn." Sunset smiled at that. "Playing hard to get… I like that. It makes me covet you more." Sunsets aura return making the heat return. "Draw!" Sunset looks at the card in her hand and smiles. She looked at the card and by the look on her face she got just what she needed. "I activate effect of Spinny in grave to bring It back once more." from a small flaming hole in the center of the arena the flaming armadillo rolled from it and came up. This time it was colored blue marking it as being in defense mode. (1000/1500) "that's not all. I Use my two level 3 salamangreat monsters to Xyz summon the stallion of the inferno, come forth steed of helios… salamangreat Megastallio." Both Spinny and the gazelle glowed for a second then became yellow orbs which ascended into the air and spun around each other. Sunset Clasped her hand then bursting from orbs came a a gray stallion with a fiery mane and two yellow orbs hovering around the monster like moons in a gravitational pull (2000/900, Level 3, 2 materials). "I will then use meer and linguriboh to link summon the companion of the king of flames. The wolf whose fire burns nature. I call out… salamangreat great wolf" the two monsters become red beams of light which shoot up to a square with nine arrows each in a different direction and then two of the arrows lit up as the beams went into them and out of the square came a bipedly wolf like robot creature with a flaming head. (2300/link-2) "I then activate effect of stellio detaching a material to summon salamangreat falco from my deck in defense mode." one of the floating light orbs burst and then in the far right zone of the arena came a bird with flaming wings (1200/1600). "He wont be here for long though as I Once again use my level 4 Xceed dragon and My recently summoned falco to Summon the joyful beast of the flame emperor… xyz summon, Bagooska" once again the fire bird and dragon turned into orbs of light which entered a vortex this time instead of a firey monster it summoned an bipedial elephant humanoid dressed in a vest, genie pants and curly shoes with gray skin and a trunk (2100/2000, Level 4). Just like that sunsets flame aura which grew stronger with each summon shot out and burned through the chill of Jeane's aura. "I enter battle phase." Sunset then pointed to her monsters. "Great wolf, destroy mathmatician, incincerating fang attack" The great wolf's claws were set aflame as it's head piston shot out bursts of of fire as he slashed the Mathmatician destroying him. "I activate effect of Mathmatician, when he is destroyed by battle I can draw a card." Mathmatacian as he died a symbol of a plus and the roman numeral for 1 came up and the hologram of a card added to jeane's hand light up. Perfect, this card can be used to refill my hand. Jeane's life points: 3400 "I'm not done Yet Magestallio, attack that squamata face down. Phlegothian Stampede charge." The horse ran up and stomped it's flaming hoofs done on Squamata which throw it's puppy strings jumped and wrapped itself around Great wolf. "What is going on with your monster. I just destroyed it." Jeane felt himself grow sick from the heat but he felt the cold fighting to push it back. "Squamata was indeed destroyed but it has a flip effect like all my shaddoll monsters and his allows me to destroy one of your monsters. Squamata Retributive vice." Squamata blew itself off summoning a smoke cloud which covered the whole arena. Jeane could feel the heat being pushed back but then he felt it once again overwhelm pushing him against the platforms barricade. "What happened?" Jeane watched as the smoke cleared and saw that not only was great wolf not destroyed but his squamata was wrapped around Balelynx. "Activate effect of Balelynx in graveyard. I can banish it when one of my Salamangreats would be destroyed and negate the destruction." Sunset smiled. "alright, here I come Jeane… Bagooska attack directly. Powerful Pasha Punch." The bagooska lifted it's big fist and threw a punch at Jeane. It's fist glows in fire and punches reving up smoke like last time this time it is jeane who has a surprise. The heat that burned his breath was repelled by the cold child and pushed It back into the center of the field. Sunset watched as a writhing brown mass of six headed monstrous ball took the hit and burst in destruction. "Very tricky, you set a monster trap face down. I see you aren't going down without a fight. Alright I set the card I just drew and end my turn." Both sunset and jeanes auras fought against each other and the boy could hardly believe he survived another turn. Whenever I use to play against raito I'd be beaten by now and even though Im scared something inside me is not letting me give up. Alright, think Jeane, what can you do to deal with her monsters. "I draw!" Jeane's aura intensified and as he could swear the card glowed in his hand. Jeane looked at the car and his heart dropped for this card was the card that his brother gave him, a very rare card of which only nine were made and were won at big tournaments. This card which jeane could never summon as even holding it over powered him. Could this be a sign, should I use him. The boy thought feeling the power in the card. I want you to have this Jeane, raito's younger self repeated in his head. If you really cared about our family then you'd runaway and jump off the tallest building the next state over. The last qoute took all his hope out and the aura was pushed back by sunsets making he heat cover jeane. I am unworthy of this card. His aura pushed back as a wave of heat blisters over the boys skin. He closed his eyes and tried to calm himself. "I activate the spell card… a-allure of darkness." the boy lightly slapped his card onto the field. The holgram showed two swirling purple lines in a black expanse. The hole empowered his aura and allowed it to stave off sunsets. "now I draw two cards but if I don't banish a dark attribute monster from my hand then I have to banish my entire hand." Jeane drew too cards and noticed they were a each a copy of his two fusion spells. "I banish armageddon knight from hand for cost." Jeane banished the card and the hologram showed a knight in japanese armor with a katana being sucking into the vortex. "Next I activate shaddoll fusion from hand." Jeane showed the card and the hologram showed a swirling purple vortex. "Since you have a monster special summoned from the extra deck I can use materials from deck for the fusion summon." the vortex showed a third headed dog that seemed to be sickly and frail and what looks like a tiny black falcon child with light strings controlling it. The two are sucked into the vortex and come out as a giant creature of light gray coloration with a pair of metallic shields for arms, a blank dolllike face, and a shape similar to a victorian noblelady (2600/3000). "I fusion summon the defender of dark earth, El shaddoll Shekinga." the boy clasped his hand and at his command the fusion obeyed. The boy's confidence returned and with it the aura pushed through and this tie even sunset felt a slight chill. "Who, sweetheart, you're giving me goosebumps. I'm getting all fired up… hehe, get it… because I use fire attribut monsters and my hair and skin are fire themed. Ha, I make myself laugh." Jeane couldn't help but smile slightly. She isnt mean, despite what her brothers are like. If it wasnt for the fact that she kinda made it hard for me to make friends during middle school I wouldnt be so against her. Sunset was very much a possessive personality and jeane couldn't let her take him away from his mother. "I activate the effect of falco in grave, summoning it facedown in defense mode. I then set a facedown monster card and another card face." the holgram zone behind falco also shown golden light and next to falco's golden glow is a second golden glow showing he had a monster too. "I then activate the spell card foolish burial." Jeane's holograms showed an open grave and in a shower of sparks the same cloud girl from before hovered over the grave but was grabbed by an decayed hand and dragged down. "this allows me to send a monster from my deck to grave and since the monster I sent was wendi I can set a shaddoll monster in facedown defense and I choose shaddoll dragon." The hologram showed a dog like monster with a dragonhead and the shaddolls characteristic puppet strings as it merged with the zone and another golden glow showing its placement in the zone." "I go to battle phase and I attack great wolf with Shekinga go, Stone breaking strike." Shekinga raised it's shield arm and charged great wolf whose fire light up and formed a shield which block shekinga who struggled against it making sparks fly. "looks like you activated my trap card, negate attack." Jeane felt himself shake. Denied again, I cant believe how good she is. Jeane's dark aura gave way to sunsets and her heat covered his field. "I End my turn." "My go draw!" Sunset drew a card then smirked. "Just what I needed. As part of the cost of keeping him on the field Bagooska absorbs one material detaching it." the light orb went into the elephants mouth and it chewed then swallowed. I activate effect of stellio to detach a material and special summon jack jaguar in defense mode" The hologram showed a four legged dog like monster with fire turbines on it's back which flared up and shown blue since it was in defense mode (1200/1800). "don't worry darling, jaguar wont be here for long as I use him and Great wolf to link summon a familiar monster." here it comes, she is gonna use those materials to summon another great wolf which means it's better effect will be activated." "I link summon another great wolf and since it was link summoned with a material that shares its name I can add a salamangreat spell or trap to hand and I choose to bring back my circle." sunset pulled the card from her graveyard as the wolf returned. "now I will summon an old friend once again. Come forth spinny but like jaguar he is gonna be gone as quick as he arrived. I use spinny and stellio to link summon the three headed beast of the dark dream realm, I call to thee Knightmare Cerberus!" Out of the link network came a three headed dog with orange skin and a spike color. (1600, Link-2) "Since I link summoned this monster I can discard a card from my hand, like say this circle I just got and can destroy a monster on your side of the field… and I choose shekinga. Cerebus use fire of the underworld to destroy his monster." "I will chain shekinga effect." Jeane started but Sunsets aura grew hotter overtaking him. "I will activate my trap card. Infitine impermence." darn it! A staple card… she really is a finalist. Jeane watched as the card summoned dragon flying over head and activating it's breath weapon as it flew over his field covering it in red fire which made Shekinga, falco, and his el shaddoll fusion gray out. "Since I set this card during my first turn not only is your Shaddoll shekinga effect negated for turn, but also all cards in the row it was set in and since I don't have any monsters there that means only your cards are effected and those zones are locked out for effects until the end of my turn." Cerebrus three heads opened their mouths and combined together to make a black fireball which hit shekinga and destroyed it in a spark of shards. "Now I activate the secondary effect of Knightmare cerberus since it is co-linked with my great wolf I draw a card." she did so and giggled. "got the last thing I needed to win this duel. Jeane enjoy your next turn… because it will be your last for this duel." Jeane felt the weight of the force in front of him. Darn it, she has a counter for my every move. What should I expect she is a seasoned duelist and ive never even played in a tournament before. All I have is a deck I card I made from a strutucure deck and normal packs of cards. Felt his hand heat up and he looked at the card. Expect for this one. The rarest card In my deck… I don't have the strength to even wield it. This card won't be controlled by just anyone. You need the power to master it and the will to control it. The boy frowned at what his brother had told him when he gave him this card. A weakling like me could never control this monster. Have you forgotten your desire so easily. The voice returned to jeane's head. I will not save one who will not save himself. Jeane felt the card pull to him. Why does this keep happening. "I will now go to battle phase." Sunset stated. "I'll start by attacking your facedown with knightmare chimera. Roar of pershone." The beast let out a sonic roar which blew up his falco. "and since its in the same row as my impermence then it cannot attack It's effect." "next I will attack your other set card with great wolf light him up wolfie." the creature ran up to him and attacked scratching at the chard which was a clown in harley quinn attire with a staff and balancing on a ball with big lips and eyes. Jeanes life points: 2400 Jeane froze as he thought about the bagooska then he felt his blood chill. I wont lose. "I activate effect of performage trick clown to summon itself to face up defense position at the cast of 1000 of my life points with 0 attack and defense." jeane declared in an even voice. The trickclown jumped out of the graveyard and hologram showed it balancing on ball whilst being covered in blue. (0/0) "wow I'm impressed, alright jeane I guess it doesn't matter. So I'll skip bagooska's attack, switch it to defense mode, and set two cards face down. Now all face up monsters on the field go into defense positon except link monsters which don't have defense mode. End my turn" "draw!" Jeane called pulling a card from his deck, he drew another shaddoll monster this one being squamata. "I'll set a monster facedown and then flip dragon. Since your bagooska is in defense mode dragon comes up to attack mode then switches to defense mode." The dragon monster shows up and then switches to defense mode. (1900/0) "Dragon effect since I flipped it I can send one monster back to your hand and I choose your great wolf." jeane pointed as dragon prepared to open it's move with shadowy flames flickering in its maw. "go! Banishing breath." The blast shot out at great wolf but sunset flipped a card making the great wolf howl causing the breath slam against the sonic wave fizzling. "looks like you once again activated my trap card, sweetie, you really are a simple minded duelist and I love it." "since I control a salamangreat link monster and you chose to activate your monsters effect I can negate it with salamangreat roar and then destroy the monster." The roar after it was done with the breath blast shot at dragon destroying it. Darn she knows my deck well. Shaddoll monsters can only activate one of their effects per turn. Jeane knew that sunsets fire grew hotter and hotter until it would be unbearable. "I end my turn" Sunset smirks. "alright cutie pie let's put this duel to bed. We've got a big day tommorrow doing fun stuff while we wait for the movers to grab your stuff from that stuffy place you used to call a home. I pay the cost of bagooska using it's last material to keep it alive. Draw." Bagooska swallows it's last material chowing down. "I think your well aware of this move. I special summon spinny from graveyard." Spinny once again returns, this time he was in attack mode lighting up with fire. "I then activate my trap card Salamangreat rage." Suddenly all of Sunsets salamangreat monsters grew angry as they began to light up with fire which shot out and burned both of jeanes monsters. "since I control a salamangreat monster I can destroy all your monsters. I then switch bagooska to attack mode and set the card I just drew." Sunset did so and the zone lit up. "I activate effect of squamata and trick clown. First in the chain I will summon performage trick clown in face up defense position at the cost of 1000 life points." Trick clown comes to the field and is covered in blue. Jeanes life points: 1400 "taking after my strategy huh, well spinny doesn't require my lifpoints to use so we both know which recursion monster is superior." jeane gritted his teeth. "I then activate squamata to send my last copy of wendi to grave in order to summon naelshaddoll ariel in face up defense mode." the monster summoned had blue hair, cosed eyes, and dressed in a swimsuit like gown and kneeled down cover in the blue. (1000/1800) "Pfft, okay, I still have enough beaters to take your measly lifepoints to zero so I don't know why you would waste our time when my victory is assured." Sunset didn't sound sure for the first time in the duel her confidence wavered and so did her aura as for the first time in this duel jeane's aura pressed full advantage making her feel the cold. "woo, shouldn't' have taken my coat off, I guess that they turned the airconditioning up. I'm freezing." she admited. "I guess I'll heat things up by attacking your clown with Bagooska. Pummel him bagooska." the elephant raised it's fist lighting it on fire to punch the clown. "I activate the quick play spell el shaddoll fusion. Since I have a shaddoll monster and a monster of the light attribute I can summon my strongest fusion master. The maiden of holy destruction el shaddoll construct." ariel and trick clown looked at each other then leapt together forming a swirl that formed into a gate of darkness. A pair of hands grab the edges of the gates and out of it came a giant metallic woman dressed in the same gothic metal style dress with a blank face. (2800/2500) Sunset gritted her teeth and groaned. "so you bought yourself one more turn. I end my turn by setting one card face down. Good luck darling." Sunset took a threatening tone. Jeane drew his card and then looked at it. He felt confidence flood him. For the first time in this duel I have a chance to win. I got to press the advantage here and now before she can recover. The card in his hand glowed warmly in his hand. Not yet, can't risk losing control of it. The card I just drew will help me break up her board but I don't have any summonable monsters outside of this card so I guess im counting on construct for this part. "I set a facedown card and go straight to battle" Jeane pointed his finger at great wolf "El shaddoll construct destroy that wolf. Darklight attack." El shaddoll construct formed a ball of black energy in between its hands molding it then shooting at the link monster. Finally I'm gonna destroy that wolf. As the blast reached closer the look of fear on sunset subsided into a wicked smirk. "not so fast. I activate the graveyard effect of my salamangreat roar." Wolf once again roared in anger destroying the blast. "since your el shaddoll construct has an effect that automatically activates when it battles a special summoned monster I can use roar in reponse to negate the activation and destroy your construct." once again the roar destroyed construct. "I activate the effect of construct to bring back a shaddoll spell or trap to my hand and I choose shaddoll fusion." "I now activate shaddoll fusion to fuse the shaddoll beast in my hand and the hedgehog in my deck to special summon Shaddoll winda." Jeane declared using the shaddoll vortex to send a four legged dog like puppet with strings and a purple hedghog wi strings to grave and summon a small girl in a black dress with a beast that appears to be shaddoll dragon (2200/800) "activate effect of beast to draw a card and then I activate effect of hedgehog to grab an el shaddoll fusion." jeane drew his reshaddoll trap. This wont be useful as a trap but it can be useful for my facedowns cost. "I set one more card face down and end my turn." "okay final turn. Draw. My bagooska has no materials and such it is destroyed." the elephant grabbed it's stomach and burst into shards. Sunset drew a card and frowned. "this one wont help." "I link summon using salamangreat great wolf and salamnagreat spinny into the true king of all salamangreats the flame emperor salamangreat heatleo. I summon you to the field now." she orders using her two beasts to do a link network which has three arrows. To summon a bipedal machine looking monster with a lions head and tail with a mane and tail made of fire and flame turbines on its back constantly spewing fire. Which made sunsets aura take a final push against jeanes nearly destroying it. "I activate the spell card super poly." jeane flips the card. "by sending a card from my hand to grave I can fusion summon using materials from either field and I choose my winda and your heatleo." "I chain the spellcard I set earlier. Salamangreat circle. I use it's secondary effect to make my link monsters immune to card effects." Jeane's super poly fizzled and he was forced to send his trap to grave. "I will now for the last time activate spinnys effect special summon him to the field in attack mode." Spinny returned and the kings fire mixed with its and covered the boy made sunsets aura unbeatable covering jeane. "it's over jeane I won. You put up a good fight but I am the only one strong enough to protect you because you cant protect yourself. Battle phase." she's right… I'm weak. "heat leo attack Winda now! Burning pride breath." the lion opened its mouth using a fire ball to blast winda. Jeane fell to his knees and didn't even bother to activate her effect. Jeanes life points: 1000 What's the point I can't beat her. She's too strong, I can't protect my monsters, I can't protect my life points, I can't even protect myself. My father and brother hate me, I'm holding my family back, and my mother is too kind to just admit I'm worthless. Do you truly believe that? The voice said, this time jeane could tell it was feminine. Why wouldnt I? Because if you were as weak as you say then you would have consigned yourself to your fate and not even dueled. I cant beat her. She is too strong. You have strength in your hand but you lack the courage to take it. I can't control it im not good enough. Who decided that. My brother, my father, my peers. Im just a weakling. No you are the boy who wants friends, you are the boy who wants to ask the girl you like out on date.. how are you gonna protect them and be good enough for them if you don't fight against those who will oppose you. Jeane couldn't retort. As he realized things had slowed down. I known you since you were born Jeane umbra and I know that you are kind and for that kindness you are called soft but I know that your kindness can give way to fury a tempest that will swallow all who threaten what you care about. Jeane could see a door inscribed with runes and had six big circles with the attributes of yugioh in ascending order water earth darkness on the left and wind fire light on the right. Jeane felt his hand to reach to it and felt power radiate inside him. When the time comes you will open this door and claim your destiny but that cant happen if you give up now. So, will you fight for yourself so you can have what you desire. Jeane let out a shot of affirmation. He saw sunset ready to end this. "go spinny end this duel with flaming spin dash attack." spinny rolled out like a ball igniting itself and rolling toward jeane like a fireball hitting him making him feel all the heat of the sun. "game, set, match!" but as the smoke cleared she noticed that jeane was still standing and his life points remained at 1000 "how?" the smoke showed the three headed mangy dog protecting jeane. "when I summoned shekinga I used prospero cerberus as a fusion material. When prospero is in the graveyard and im about to take battle damage I can banish him to take no battle damage." Sunset yelled out in rage. "why are you making this so hard! Just lose already!" she had lost it jeane had a calm look on his face. For the first time in the duel he felt his aura under his control and he pressed the advantage to place It in the middle of the field. "I take my final turn. I draw." Jeane looked at the card in his hand and smiled. "I activate the card I just drew, shaddoll fusion I use mathmatician and my last shaddoll monster naelshaddoll ariel to fusion summon an old friend. Return to the field shekinga!" shekinga came from the fusion as jeane smiled. He controlled his aura to fight against the wild chaotic aura of sunsets. He needed the right focus for what comes next he waited until both auras were even. "i'm ending this duel now! When light and shadow share balance I can call forth the start of the reckoning of the world. I summon him who is the herald of the end times and one who will rebuild the world in his image. I summon my monster, the great envoy of the beginnning. Come forth, black luster soldier!" Jeane yelled playing the card. "black luster soldier, the envoy of the beginning? You have that card. How did you get one of the rarest cards in all of duel monsters." Sunset was shocked as lightning thunder covered the center of the field where their aura's mixed. "I was given this card by my closest friend and though he is harsh I still care about him and I respect our friendship by summoning the card that symbolizes our bond. I summon him by banishing performage trick clown and shaddoll falco to summon the envoy of the beginning." Dressed in black and gold armor wielding a curved sword the black luster soldier stood imposing upon sunset. (3000/2500) "go battle phase!" Jeane yelled. "black luster soldier attack salamangreat spinny! Black hole Oblvion." the monster raised its hand, palm extended and out of its palm came a mini black hole which shot toward the armadillo monster and swallowed it. Sunsets life points 1000 "I don't know why im so worried you only have one more monster to attack and even if you destroy my leo I'll still have life points. I have drew just the card I needed to destroy you last turn so all I need is to draw a salamangreat monster or my last circle to win on my next turn." "wrong!" Sunset backed away and her aura was evaporating. "what are you talking about!" "When black luster soldier destroys a monster by battle it can attack a second time." "What!?" "Soldier destroy her heatleo with twilight slash!" The soldier dashed toward heatleo and in one quick swipe slashed the beast into shards. Sunsets lifepoints. "Why! Why do you fight me!" she cried her make up running. "Do you hate me so much. I would have taken care of you. Just let me love you jeane! All I'd ask is your love in return! Why cant you love me!" "Sunset shimmer, you claim to love me but I can see through your facade. You cant love anyone truly because you do not love yourself." Jeane responded in a calm tone. "Now shekinga end this duel with a direct attack." Shekinga swung her shield and slammed down onto sunset completely extinguishing her aura completely. Sunset life points: 0, Winner jeane umbra. After the duel was done jeane descended from the platform. He looked back at the crying sunset and shook his head. Maybe I was too rough on her. "Jeane umbra! I will not forget this embarrassment I will make you mine! No matter what I have to do you will be mine and mine alone! Mark m words your day will come." Jeane walked away saying nothing and walked out of the arena. He pulled out his phone and then looked at the number of his mother. The boy closed his phone then walked down the street. He needed time to think and his mother would be grocery shopping right now. No need to bother her. I can walk home.
