Ride 013:Laugh Of Despair, The Witch's Last Show

Earth’s Vanguards house...

It was a nice peaceful day inside the house. It was raining outside with gray skies stretching across the whole town. Nopony was outside, leaving the four cardfighting stallions inside their house.

Leon was in his study, researching a book about Equestrian myths. Kai was on couch reading his Daring Doo book, with Ren at the dinner with board look on his face. Aichi looked out the window near the couch and sigh, before looking down to the ground.

"I'm bored" Ren said slamming his head down on too the table.

"Ren, you've been saying that for hours" Kai replied, annoyed.

"That's because I am bored" Ren answered slightly turning his head towards Kai.

"Can't you do anything else but complain?" Kai asked, irritated.

"No" Ren groaned, "with Sugar Cube Corner closed, I can't sell cards."

"Well you don't have to complain" Kai said raising his voice, "it's just annoying."

"Well, what should I do then" Ren retorted raising his voice.

"I don't know, just don't complain" Kai answered yelling.

"Kai" Aichi said loudly, worried.

"But their is nothing else to do" Ren retorted.

"Can you two just be quite" Leon yelled angrily, walking out of his study.

Everypony was silenced, not single sound was made, except the heavy rain from outside. Everypony looked at Leon, expecting more. Leon quickly regaining his composure before speaking, "if you two could be quite, I would quite enjoy that."

"He started it" Ren said staring at Kai, only to get a glare back..

'I need to take a break after this adventure' Leon thought to himself.

"My my my, what childish group of ponies Celestia summoned this time" Discord said popping into existence in front of of all stallions. The cardfighters just looked at that creature in front with dumbstruck looks. The four could not understand what they were looking at.

"Hurrah, entertainment" Ren said with a smile.

Back in the mysterious stallions domain..,

Witch of Nostrum, Arianrhod:7000 Power

Creeping Dark Goat:4000 Power

Star-vader, Volt Line:7000 Power

Prison Gate Star-vader, Palladium:7000 Power

Star-vader, Dust Tail Unicorn:5000 Power

Trixie stood there with her front legs on energy table in front of her, struggling to remain standing. She was breathing heavily as she looked down at the board below her. 'What is this, this...no. This is nothing, I just have to shake this off.'

"Hahaha" the stallion laughed, "I'm sorry was that to much pain, I will try to pull my punches more."

"Your sick" Trixie retorted.

"Ah, your so nice" the stallion continued to smile.

'Is this pony insane' Trixie thought to herself with a disturbed look on her face.

"I end my turn with that" the stallion replied, folding his front two legs, "your move O' great one."

"The great and powerful Trixie will win and make you pay" Trixie said standing all her cards before drawing a card.

"The great and powerful Trixie rides Witch of Attraction, Adora." Trixie was transformed once again, her cyan mane and tail grew longer and curler as over sized witch hat appeared on her head. Her front two legs gained dark blue frilly sleeves that connected to a blue under with articulate gray lines adoring it. Finally a long whitish gray staff with a red gem at the top of it encased by four half heart lines, appeared in front of her.

Witch of Attraction, Adora:9000 Power

"Next, the great and powerful Trixie calls Witch of Reality, Femme" as Trixie placed the card a perfect copy of Femme appeared right besides her.

Witch of Reality, Femme:9000 Power(Front left row)

"Now with a boost from Creeping Dark Goat, Adora attacks your Vanguard" Trixie said before turn her cards sideways and pointing her front right hoof at the stallion.

Witch of Attraction, Adora(Creeping Dark Goats):12000 Power

"I guard with Star-vader, Jeiratail" the hooded stallion did so as a small cybernetic four legged animal with four black tube like tails and the same ominous red and black ring around it's neck appeared.

Star-vader, Volt Line(Star-vader, Jeiratail):12000 Shield

"That's it, a simple trigger can get over that" Trixie claimed arrogantly, with small smile in her face.

"Well then that's most I can do" the stallion replied with a sad face, "I'm so sorry I couldn't do more O' great one, haha."

"Why you, drive trigger check" Trixie said firing blast of magical energy at the stallion laughing at her. The four tailed creature jumped in the way of the blast, the collision caused a smoke cloud to envelop the stallion. As the dust cleared the stallion was unharmed, with giant smile on his face.

"Nothing" Trixie admitted in anger looking at the card she drew, growling at it.

"Looks like Jeiratail was enough to keep me safe" the stallion continued to laugh maniacally.

"Why you" Trixie stared at her opponent in rage, "Femme attacks your Vanguard, and with her skill she gets another 3000 power."

Witch of Reality, Femme:12000 Power

"No guard" the stallion said taking another blast of energy as a card flew into his damage.

"The great and powerful Trixie ends her turn" Trixie said irritated.

"Good, I stand and draw" the stallion looked gave a huge smile at Trixie, "you know, you've been a fun opponent."

"What's that suppose to mean?" Trixie asked enraged.

"Oh, nothing at the moment" the stallion said, before laughing.

'What is wrong with this pony?' Trixie thought.

Back with Earth’s Vanguards...

The stallions looks were shared, a stupidity look of confusion. They could not process what they were looking at. A dragon like creature that looked like something out horror stories to them. All while Ren was staring at the creature with enticement and ah.

"So are any of you going to speak, beside you know the Mr.Red Head over here" the creature spook in a very casually voice, "or can you not process my presence?"

"Um" Aichi began.

"What are you, how do you know who we are, and why are you here?" Kai said straightening his express and giving the creature a death glare.

"Wow, wow, wow, I didn't know Celestia could summon such a hot shot" the creature said before grabbing Kai by his collar of his shirt and lifting him up, "seriously with how many there are in Equestria, I thought she would know better, I guess not."

"Kai" Aichi screamed.

"Let me go you, you, you thing" Kai said trying to get out of the creature grip.

"Hm, thing, while I've been called worst, it's still rude" the creature said with smirk on his face, "I will have you know I'm the very embodiment of chaos, the thing most ponies fear, I am Discord. Who do you think you are calling me that?"

'Well that answers one question at least' Leon thought to himself, "we are sorry for how we acted Discord, my name is Leon Soryu."

"Leon" Aichi said under his breath.

"What are you doing Leon" Kai complained.

"He is higher begin the us Kai, if we engage in fight with him their no chance of us winning" Leon explained, "beside I don't seem to be getting a bad wind from him."

"I like this guy" Discord said pointing at Leon, "through I don't understand even the slightest thing you mean by 'bad wind', but whatever."

"So excuse me, um, Mr.Discord" Aichi began stumbling on some of his words.

"What" Discord said turning his head towards Aichi, "huh, oh yeah, the protagonist. What do you need?"

"Well I was wondering why are you here?" Aichi asked, afraid of giving the the creature the wrong look.

"Seriously kid, you don't need to act shy, I have enough of that with another pony" Discord began, "thanks for reminding me, me, me. Um, what's your name kid?"

"Aichi, Aichi Sendou" Aichi replied.

"Seriously what's with all these weird names" Discord commented. "Well to answer your question kid, I came to confirm your guys story. I find it quite hard to believe, which I find amazing since I have seen it all."

"What story are talking about Mr.Discord?" Aichi asked nervously.

"You know which story" Discord answered.

"No we don't, right guys" Aichi replied looking at his friends.

"You can cut the act Aichi, he obliviously knows are mission" Leon commented shaking his head towards his blue haired ally.

"You got that right" Discord added on with energy, now laying in the air, holding Kai in front of his face.

"But Leon?" Aichi questioned in distress.

"It's okay Aichi, in are position it's the best possible thing we can do" Leon said calmly to his friend, before turning to Discord with a more stern look, "now what do you specifically want to know?"

"Well you can spare me the filler, and I don't need know that much for the first two season, so just Link Joker can suffice" Discord answered, "and I only need the important details."

"Okay then, it's quite the long story" Leon began, "it all started in a school..."

'Oh, it's this kind of story' Discord thought to himself.

Back in the mysterious stallions domain...

"Well then, first I ride, Companion Star Star-vader, Photon" the stallion's body slimmed down and turned into crystal like rock which covered his entire body except for his head. His mane grew and changed into a more puffer spiked light blue mane, which now matched his tail. Two black rock like x's appeared on his chest as a black visor appeared over his eyes. Finally crooked horn replaced his old one, and two long black spears appeared around his two front hooves floated around him.

Companion Star Star-vader, Photon:9000 Power

"Next I call Chain-battle Star-vader, Technetium" another cybernetic unicorn with a giant black ring appeared beside stallion. This time the pony was armored barely revealing very of it's face as it was cover a black rectangular visor. It carried two giant blaster, one was in it's right hoof in futuristic pistol look, the other was undersluged under in it's front left leg.

Chain-battle Star-vader, Technetium:9000 Power(front right column)

"Battle" the stallion began before raising his head and staring at Trixie with a smile, "Technetium attacks your Vanguard."

"No guard" Trixie said bracing for the impact, before taking the full force of shot from Technetium gun, as a card flew into her damage zone.

"Next" the stallion raised one of his spears forward, before leaping into the air, "I will take aim at Adora."

"The great and powerful Trixie guards with Witch of Quests, Securna" Trixie said as smaller filly witch appeared in front of her.

Witch of Attraction, Adora(Witch of Quests, Securna):14000 Shield

"Drive trigger check" the stallion said as he was falling for his strike. The top card of his flipped over, "critical trigger, I will take all of the effects."

Companion Star Star-vader, Photon(Critical Trigger):14000 Power, Critical 2

"Aaaaaahhhhh" a scream of pain came from Trixie mouth as the black speared her chest.

The top two cards of Trixie deck flew into her damage zone one begin a draw trigger, as blood started to drip out of her chest. Her eyes were wide open as the intense pain consumed her entire body. She look up only to see the smile of the stallion, enjoying every bit of her pain. Barely managing to speak to assign the trigger properties, "power to Adora, and draw."

Witch of Attraction, Adora(Draw Trigger):14000 Power

"Hahahaha, your face is priceless" the stallion pulled his blood covered spear out of Trixie, before he slowly floated back to his original position, "You know, this is only grade 2, you still have a chance."

Trixie could barely pay attention to the stallion's words. She was covering her wound with her front right hoof, even still blood continued to come out. Her vision was starting to blur, as she started cough out her own blood, screaming out of pain once again.

"Well my turns over" the stallion said as he returned to original position, "O' great one, show me your power."

'I can't do this, this is too much' Trixie thought to herself, as she felt her body to give out on her. 'No, I refuse to go out, I still have somepony to beat. I will not be defeated by this insane pony!'

"Is that hope in that look" the stallion looked at Trixie with a smile.

"Stand and draw" Trixie did so.

Back with Discord...

"...finally, after long and devastation cardfight with the origin of the Link Joker, the monster wreaking havoc on plant suddenly disappear" Leon stopped to breath in, "then.."

"Stop, stop, stop, by Celestia mane this is one of longest, most plot contrived, over complicated stories I've heard" Discord whinnied.

"Huh, huh, what?" Ren said abruptly woke up from a sleep, "is the story over?"

"If are little disrupting is over, I can continue are story" Leon said a little annoyed.

"There's more, please just kill me now" Discord continued.

"No" Kai began calmly as he floated around in a bubble made of Discord magic, "I think are guest has heard enough."

"Oh, I forgot I put you into that bubble" Discord said turning to Kai, before tapping it away from him, "how does it feel in there?"

"Just wonderful" Kai responded in the most unenthusiastic he could muster.

"Great" Discord replied with a smile, "but, no, seriously I don't need hear anymore of your guys story."

"But" Aichi chimed in.

"Don't worry about it kid, I get the basic jest" Discord cut into what Aichi sentence.

"Wait you do?" Aichi asked.

"Yeah, typical evil villain story" Discord said carelessly, "nothing really new."

"But there's more to it then that" Aichi replied upset.

"Well, Discord is kind of right" Ren agreed with Discord, putting his front right hoof on his chin, "it is a typical evil villain story."

"None the less I believe he gets the message" Leon commented calmly, "now that you know about our story, is their anything else you need?"

"Not really, I can sleep easy as I know my life is the hands of four teenagers with attitude" Discord said with sarcasm.

"Hey" Ren replied angrily.

"I kid, I kid, not really, but that's beside the point" Discord said, "but in all honesty I can't take this seriously."

"But, this important" Aichi wailed, "it's a matter of the entire universe."

"Yeah, it's that big" Discord began with sarcasm. "I can assure all of you not matter how bad you make this 'Link Joker' look really bad, I just cannot take "Card games save worlds" it's just to ridiculous. And that's saying something coming from me, Discord."

All of the stallions cringed at the lord of chaos, except Ren who still stared at the floating Kai. They were bothered by Discord pure ignorance and bad sense of humor. Nopony said a single word, and just stared in silence.

Back in the mysterious stallions domain...

'It's time to so this pony who he's dealing' Trixie thought. "Embodiment of curses, dealer of the dark arts, the great and powerful Trixies rides, Cultus Witch, Rias!" Trixie was engulfed in a powerful purple light, and she was turned into a perfect clone of Rais, only with Trixies mane color. "What this, what happened to the pain?"

Cultus Witch, Rias:11000 Power

"Oh yeah, since you're transforming into a new body of every time you ride your wounds are always left behind" the stallion explain.

"Alright, the great and powerful Trixie has nothing to fear" Trixie gloated, "next the great and powerful Trixie calls Inspection Witch, Deirdre."

Inspection Witch, Deirdre:9000

"Next with her skill, Palladium is turned into a grade 0 from your drop zone" Trixie added on as she removed a card from her soul, then Palladium turned into a Jeiratail.

Star-vader, Jeiratail:5000 Power(in front of Dust Tail)

"Now with a boost from Dark Goat, Rias attacks your Vanguard" Trixie continued as she prepared to fire a magical blast at the stallion.

Cultus Witch, Rias(Creeping Dark Goat):15000 Power

"I don't think so, perfect guard" the stallion said as another cybernetic pony appeared in front of him.

Barrier Star-vader, Promethium(Sentinel):0 Guard

"Twin Drive check" Trixie revealed the top two cards of her deck, as she revealed the second one, it began to glow, "yes, critical trigger, everything too Deirdre."

Inspection Witch, Deirdre(Critical Trigger):14000 Power, Critical 2

As the stallion discarded a card from his hand, Rias charged a powerful magical blast. She then threw it at the stallion, but the blast was stop by Promethium creating a red energy shield in front of the stallion.

"Femme attacks your Vanguard and with skill she gets another 3000 power" Trixie said in frustration.

Witch of Reality, Femme:12000 Power

"I guard with Star-vader, Apollonel Dragon" the stallion replied placing a card in the guardian circle.

Companion Star Star-vader, Photon(Star-vader, Apollonel Dragon):19000 Shield

Femme shot a magical blast of energy at Photon, only for dragon that looked to made out crystals to appear. It flew right into the blast causing a small explosion. Once the smoke cleared, Photon was still standing proudly.

"Aaahhh, Deirdre finish him" Trixie said enraged, as Deirdre shot a magical blast.

Inspection Witch, Deirdre(Critical Trigger):14000 Power, Critical 2

"No guard, damage check" the stallion said taking the blast and putting the cards into his damage zone.

"Huh, how did you like?" Trixie asked breathing heavily.

"Hahaha, ah, that felt good" the stallion answered laughing maniacally.

"What are you?" Trixie questioned.

"Like I said, just a really big fan" the stallion continuing to laugh.

Trixie continued to looked at the stallion with looks of confusion and disgust. She looked at the hand she had now developed this turn. 'Okay this should be enough to get me through his turn, and then I should be able to finish him off on my turn.'

"The great and powerful Trixie ends her turn" Trixie declared.

"Stand and draw" the stallion drew his card, and then stared at it with a smile, "the real fun can now begin."

"Imagine it, a world of nothing but despair and darkness" the stallion began with his eyes closed and raising his drawn card into the air. "Embrace fear and sadness, let it destroy your mind. I ride the Vanguard, Star-vader, Imaginary Plane Dragon!" The stallion slammed the card onto his vanguard circle, and he was then consumed by black and red energy eruption.

"Aaaahhhh" Trixie screamed as she was consumed by shockwaves of the explosion.

Soon the the stream of energy began to take the shape of reptilian creature, covered in spikes. The creature crossed its giant arms together before spreading them out causing the energy burst, and revealing to what looked like a dragon to Trixie. It was covered in basin armor to hide the black cybernetic under skin of the creature that was covered in red lines. The dragon's eyes were covered by a black visor that had a giant red crystal jagged horn sticking out from it, and the head was covered in the same kind of horns only golden down the rest of creatures head. To complete the look, three giant black rings appeared were the creatures wing would be, all with extra black blade parts sticking out, all covered with red cybernetic lining.

Star-vader, Imaginary Plane Dragon:11000 Power

"What, what is that?" Trixie asked vaguely.

"This is an embodiment of dark imagination" the dragon answered using a more gruff version of the stallion's voice.

"What?" Trixie asked not understanding what the stallion said.

"Don't think that's all" the dragon said raising his hand into the air. "Dark emotions gather, form a black star of pure chaos, seek mate." A golden light flickered off the dragon’s body into the sky. Then four cards from his drop zone glowed silver and flew back into his deck. The dragons deck started to light up silver until one popped out into the dragons hands.

'No, you have to kidding me' Trixie thought to herself, with a look of fear on her face.

"Come on, now show yourself, slave to the my will" Trixie saw a red silhouette of the stallion she was fighting grab the card and slam down on the table below him, "Flash Gun Star-vader, Osmium, Legion!"

A gold V symbol appeared over the stallion vanguard as both cards formed a complete image. Another cybernetic stallion appeared right besides the dragon, only this stallion armor and black rings matched the look of the dragon. Finally the stallion was carrying a giant cannon over his front right leg.

Star-vader, Imaginary Plane Dragon/Flash Gun Star-vader, Osmium:20000 Power

"Next, Legion skill, Dark Nightmare!" the dragon said snapping his figures together, "I counter blast 2 two, and then I Lock both Femme and Deirdre."

"Lock? What's that's?" Trixie asked.

"It's better if you observe" the dragon raised his right arm and pointed it at Trixie. Two small black balls of energy surrounded by two black rings the resembled the ones that stallions other unit bared appeared in the dragon’s hand. They then flew towards both Femme and Deirdre, before concealing them in the inside the sphere as just cards that floated in the center of the sphere. The two cards on Trixie table then flipped over in a standing position face down, with a black lightening surrounding them.

Witch of Reality, Femme:Locked

Inspection Witch, Deirdre:Locked

"What?" Trixie tried to touch her locked but was then shocked, "ah!"

"This is a Lock" the stallion answered before laughing.

Back with Aichi...

"Now there is something I am interested, what's this Lock thingy" Discord asked breaking the silence.

"Locks" Aichi muttered to himself.

"Lock, it's the leading power of Link Joker and one of their strongest" Kai explained to Discord, "they confine anything into small compacted pocket dimension...

Back with the cardfight...

"Units confined by lock cannot move, they lose thought, and cannot resist at all" the stallion explained, "your unit won't be free until the end of your turn."

"ugh" Trixie grinned at her opponent.

"They restrict and stop any sign of life" Kai went on.

"They wallow and remain alone for as long as it stays" the stallion explained in more detail.

"That is Lock" both stallions finished explaining.

With Discord...

"Well when you put it like that, you make it sound...kind of bad" Discord said, only to get stares from the rest of the stallions, "kidding."

"Sure you are" Ren said under his breath.

"Oh, ha ha, very funny" Discord stated sarcastically, "have you forgotten who I am!?"

"I wish I could" Kai commented under his breath.

"I heard that" Discord replied enraged pushing Kai in his bubble away.

"Mr.Discord" Aichi said pulling on the draconequus tail.

"WHAT!" Discord screamed.

"Um, did you get all the information you need?" Aichi asked shyly.

"Oh, um yeah I got all the information" Discord answered taken back by the shyness of the stallion, 'What's is with this Stallion, he's like some sort of stallion version of Fluttershy from an alternate reality, odd.'

Their was a brief silence in the room. It was four way staring contest between the three stallion and Discord, while Kai floated around the room. The draconequus sighed, "well I have gotten what I came for, I need to get going I have a dinner appointment with somepony. Bye-bye, and have fun stopping this Rink Joke thing."

"It's Link Joker Mr.Discord" Aichi commented.

"Same thing" Discord replied before snapping his claws on his left arm, then teleporting away in a bright flash.

Back in the mysterious stallions domain...

"Now Technetium attacks your Vanguard" the last card in the dragon's hand disappeared, "his skill, since my Vanguard has Star-vader in his name, he get's 5000 power.'

"No guard" Trixie said bracing herself for the attack.

Chain-battle Star-vader, Technetium:14000 Power

Technetium lined up his two cannon and locked on to Trixie. He fired two large beams of black and red energy at the mare. Trixie flew back as a card flew into her damage zone.

"Technetium skill, I Soul Charge one card, then I choose a card in my damage and turn it face up" the dragon said as the flowing things happened.

"Ugh, it doesn't matter" Trixie standing back up.

"Moving on, Imaginary Plane Dragon will now take his turn and with his skill he gains another 2000 more power" the dragon prepared to attack.

Star-vader, Imaginary Plane Dragon/Flash Gun Star-vader, Osmium:22000 Power

"Nullified with Dark Shield, Mac Lir" Trixie said putting the card into her guarding circle and discarding a card.

"Twin Drive check" the top two cards of the dragons deck flipped over with the first one glowing green, "heal trigger, I heal one damage and Jeiratail gets 5000 power."

The dragon raised left up his right arm, and a ball dark purplish black energy began to form in the palm of his right claw, as the stallion beside him fired a blast from his cannon. Mac Lir quickly appeared and blocked the blast. The dragon throw the ball of energy knocking Mac Lir over before disappearing.

"Moving on, Jeiratail with a boost from Dust Tail attacks" The dragon ordered.

Star-vader, Jeiratail(Star-vader, Dust Tail Unicorn):15000 Power

"Black Crow Witch, Eine guards" Trixie setting the card down into her Guardian Circle.

Cultus Witch, Rias(Black Crow Witch, Eine):21000 Shield.

Jeiratail charged towards Rias with all it had, soon developing a purple stream of energy behind him. As he was just about to hit Rias, a black figure out of nowhere slapped it out of the way. Eine laughed in front of Rias before disappearing.

"Huh, what do you think of that?" Trixie asked taking deep breaths.

"Oh, I found it amusing" The dragon replied.

"What was that?" Trixie asked enraged.

"Oh, I just find watching limbless creature struggling to stand to be funny, don't you" the dragon answered, before laughing maniacally.

"That's sick" Trixie replied, almost throwing up in her mouth.

"Oh, don't worry, at least it's not you" the dragon responded, "you can surely win."

"Why, why.." a tear fell down Trixie's face slowly, "what in the name of Tartarus is wrong with you!?"

"Hahahahahaha..."The dragon broke into laughter before staring back to Trixie with giant smile, "Nothing is wrong with me."

Trixie could only stare at the towering dragon with confusion. 'What, nopony should be, be , be this cruel, this messed up' Trixie thought to herself, 'what is this feeling, why am I shaking. Wait is this what it mean to be truly afraid, to have fear.'

"No, that's not me" Trixie said to herself, recomposing herself slightly, "The great and powerful Trixie turn!"

'I can't make a full attack' Trixie thought looking down at her field, 'I will have to do all I can though.'

"Call Witch of Ruination, Scathach" Trixie said, as a mare dressed in colorful outfit, and red mane appeared.

Witch of Ruination, Scathach:7000 Power(Back Left row)

"Let's go, Seek Mate!" Trixie declared as four cards flew into her deck before a silver card flew into her hand. "Line up, and cast your spell of darkness" Trixie held the card to her chest before placing it down on her Vanguard circle, Inspection Witch, Deirdre, Legion!" Deirdre then appeared right besides Rias.

Cultus Witch, Rias/Inspection Witch, Deidre:20000 Power

"Next, Rias skill, Scathach, your life is needed" Scathach smiled back to Trixie before disappearing, "then your Vanguard loses 5000 Power for each of your Grade 0's, Dark Art Curse!"

Star-vader, Imaginary Plane Dragon/Flash Gun Star-vader, Osmium:1000 Power

"Next, with Rias skill, Technetium to be turned into a Grade 0" Trixie declared as Technetium disappeared and new smaller cybernetic mare with fairy like wings appeared instead.

Star-vader, Pixie Powder:5000 Power(front right row)

"Now, with a boost from Goat, Legion attack" Trixie declared.

Cultus Witch, Rias/Inspection Witch, Deidre(Creeping Dark Goat):24000 Power

"No guard" the dragon said with a giant smile.

"Twin Drive Check!" Trixie as the top two cards of her deck were revealed, "yes a Critical Trigger."

Cultus Witch, Rias/Inspection Witch, Deidre(Creeping Dark Goat, Critical Trigger):29000 Power, 2 Critical

Both witches flew into the sky and began to form giant sphere of dark energy. Wind and lightening started to surround the ball, along with small dust particles. The two witches then threw the ball of energy at the Dragon causing a huge explosion.

"Damage check" two cards flew into the stallions damage zone, "Draw Trigger, I draw one card."

"Eh, turn end" Trixie admitted, 'I just need to survive till my next turn.'

"During your end phase, all your Locked cards are unlocked" the dragon explained as the Locks disappeared and the units reappeared.

Witch of Reality, Femme:9000 Power

Inspection Witch, Deirdre:9000 Power

"Heh, look like this game will go the great and powerful Trixie" the mare boasted.

"Hahahahahahahaha" the dragon broke into a mad laugh.

"What's so fun" Trixie asked aggravated.

"Oh nothing" the dragon answered, "it's just you humor me."

"What was that?" Trixie asked enraged.

"Stand and draw" the dragon smile grew, "now the real fun begins."

"First, Legion skill, Legion skill, Dark Nightmare!" the dragon said as both Femme and Deirdre were turned into Locks.

Witch of Reality, Femme:Locked

Inspection Witch, Deirdre:Locked

"Next I move Pixie Powder back, and Companion Star Star-vader, Photon" the dragon said as Photon appeared, "then with Photons skill Goat is Locked as well."

Companion Star Star-vader, Photon:9000 Power(Front right row)

Creeping Dark Goat:Locked

"Furthermore, I retire Jeiratail and then call Star-vader, Colony Maker" another cybernetic mare appeared, this time wielding a staff, "and with her skill I search my deck for grade 1 or lower unit and I get to call it."

Star-vader, Colony Maker:9000 Power(Front left row)

"Call, Star-vader, Volt Line" Volt Line then appeared behind the dragon.

Star-vader, Volt Line:7000 Power(Center back row)

'he just fixed his field just like that' Trixie thought to herself worried.

"Now, with a boost from Dust Tail, Colony Maker attacks your Vanguard" the dragon smiled, as Volt Line moved in to attack.

Star-vader, Colony Maker(Star-vader, Dust Tail Unicorn):14000 Power

"Witch of Quests, Securna guard" Securna appeared in front of Trixie to take the hit.

Cultus Witch, Rias(Witch of Quests, Securna):16000 Shield

"Moving on, Legion attack and with Imaginary Plane Dragons skill he get's another 2000 Power" The dragon said as both him and Osmium charged forth.

"Nullify it Mac Lir" Trixie said placing the card on the guardian circle.

"Twin Drive check" the top two card of dragons deck were revealed, both glowed a bright yellow, "double critical trigger get, all effects to Photon."

Companion Star Star-vader, Photon(Critical Trigger, Critical Trigger):19000 Power, 3 Critical

The dragon grabbed Mac Lir by his body and threw him into the air. Osmium then fired various shots of energy from his cannon at the helpless stallion. Finally the dragon stabbed Mac Lir through the chest with sharp talon like claws, before Mac Lir disappeared.

"Now, for are show to come to an end my dear Trixie" the dragon said close to Trixie's face, "Now with a boost from Pixie Powder, Photon attacks your Vanguard."

Companion Star Star-vader, Photon(Critical Trigger, Critical Trigger, Star-vader, Pixie Powder):24000 Power, 3 Critical

"Huh" Trixie looked at her hand, before looking back up, 'why, why, why. A grade 3 that can't guard and single Trigger. I can't let it end here, no, I can't die, I don't want to die.'

"I DON'T WANT TO DIE!" Trixie screamed.

"Oh, don't worry it will be over quick" The dragon reassured.

Photon dashed towards Trixie, ignoring her cries for mercy. Jumping onto Imaginary Plane Dragon, before jumping off the dragon into the sky, holding his sword downward, aiming for the center of Trixie's body. A smile grew on Photon face as he began to laugh.

"Damage check" Trixie declared before the impact.

"First check" a glowing green card flew into her damage zone, "Heal Trigger."

'I can do this, I can live.'

"Second check" another glowing green card flew into her damage zone, "Heal Trigger."

'Yes, yes, yes' Trixie eye's filled with joy.

"Unfortunately we can't have you win, it's not part of my contract" Trixie heard the stallion’s voice in a serious tone.

"What" Trixie became confused, "what did you sa..."

Before Trixie could finish her sentence she felt cold metal object through her chest. Her body became cold, her eye's wide open, her jaw hanging. The cold feeling was soon replaced with rush of warmth as she felt her conscious disappearing her eye's closing, her mouth shut. She began to fall as she realized what had just happened. Barely able to see, Trixie catches a glimpse of her final damage, Cultus Witch, Rias.

"And with that are show comes to an end" the stallion said as Trixie fell unconscious, "and with that, are contract is complete Ms.Lulamoon."

Back with Earth's Vanguards...

"I am bore.." Ren received a glare from both Leon and Aichi, "what?"

It was nighttime, and the house was quiet and filled with work. Aichi, Leon, and Ren were all cleaning up their house, after their surprise visitor they received. Leon was trying to sweep the floor, Aichi was rearranging the furniture of the house back to it's original location, and Ren was lying on the couch complaining.

"The last time Ren you said that we had a god of chaos invade or house" Leon answered.

"It's not like I expected that happen" Ren countered.

"Still, you should be helping clean up the place, like everyone else is" Leon explained letting out a sigh.

"I already helped and I am tired" Ren complained, "besides Kai isn't helping."

"I don't call picking up a couple of things and throwing them outside helping" Leon retorted.

"They were big things" Ren tried to explain.

"Plastic cups aren't big" Leon sighed.

"Maybe to you" Ren said under his breath.

"Speaking of Kai, how is he doing" Aichi asked.

"He's still in his room, I don't think he has gotten out of bubble that Discord but him in" Leon answered.

"I hope that he isn't in that bubble forever" Aichi said.

"I knew I forgot something" Discord voice was heard.

"Isn't that?" Aichi asked.

"Yeah" Leon asked as both of their heads looked to the ceiling of the room.

"Here you go" Discord voice echoed through the house, before a giant pop and crash sound, "there we go, well good bye."

"REN!" Kai's screamed was echoed through the house.

"Oh come on" Ren complained.

A dark rain town...

A foggy street with heavy rain falling down. A single stallion wearing glasses and and coat with a hood. "Huh, this rain still hasn't gotten better, if anything it has gotten worse. This combined with today's sells, today's just gone downhill. Oh well, better luck tomorrow."

The stallion continued to walk down the street trying to get out of the rain, looking everywhere for cover. Turning his head he finally see's a blue mare beaten up, unconscious, in the rain. ‘What, Trixie, what is she doing there, and why is she so hurt.’

"Trixie hey are okay" the stallion ran over to mare, moving her body, "I hope nothing too bad happened to her."

"Wake up Trixie, Trixie wake up" the stallion yelled at the mare.

"uh, uh" the mare woke up slowly.

"I am so relieved to see that my favorite is still around, you scared me for a second there Trixie" the stallion responded, giving off a sigh of relief, "how are you feeling?"

"Reborn" Trixie answered with a smile dawn on her face,

"What?" the stallion asked.

"I feel like after so long, I feel like I have final woken up, and know the truth" Trixie explained as red line appeared on her face with a smile, "and I have finally found what I have been looking for, ha, ha, ha, hahahaha!"

To Be Continued...

Next Time...

"I swear I didn't do anything wrong Kai" Ren claimed to Kai.

"You always say that Ren, and I am get tired of it" Kai replied.

"Guys don't fight, I'm sure it was just a misunderstanding" Aichi pleaded.

"Aichi right Kai, it was just Discord" Leon backed Aichi up.

"Huh, I just getting tired of unnecessary problems getting in the way of are mission" Kai responded calming himself down.

"Mail for a Mr.Ren Suzugamori" an stallion voice was heard.

"Yay" Ren screamed with joy.

"Oh brother, here we go again" Kai said under his breath.
