The Tournament of Destiny

by goldenrise365

Tournament, Day 2: A Battle Between Worlds

'Gold' and his friends kept up with the tournament. They were involved in more duels then anyone else. Once the preliminary duels were finished the finalist were announced.

Pegasus sent out a video message toe everyone. "Attention duelist. All of you have done well so far, but now it's time to announce the finalist. Your wins and loses have been calculated, and the finalist are as follows: Golden Rise, Nightfall Silver, Burst Stream, Inferno Flare, Steele Edge, Arttic Ace, Has-" The video suddenly cut out.

"That's odd," said Star. Everyone had gathered in one group. Suddenly the sky turned a dark purple.

Another video began, it showed... Gold. "Hello duelist. For the past day you have known me as Gold, but the truth is..." The video turned purple, the Shade appeared. "Surprise!" Shade gave a dark chuckle. "Yeah. Your little friend is not here. The true power duelist is here. My master is already in Equestria, and let's just say, no help is coming from there. So if you want to find me you'll probably know where to look. Goodbye weaklings." The video cut out.

The others turned to Sunset. Her face was covered by her hair. Night stepped forward. "Sunset, we have to be rational about this."

She looked up, and there was a fire in her eye. "There's nothing to discuss or rationalize. He messed with us enough times. I'm going to face him. You can join me if you want to."

Burst stepped forward. "Gold is all our friend. If your facing Shade, we're with you all the way." The others gave a reassuring yes.

Sunset smiled. "Thank you all. Now let's end this together." The group ran to the school. When they arrived, they saw that Shade was using the portal as a throne.

"Thought you wouldn't show at first. Sorry, but I needed a seat for this new world. So blah blah blah world take over blah blah blah destroy you blah blah blah I choose to duel Sunset." Shade summoned his duel disk.

"Fine then, I accept." Sunset activated her duel disk.

"Let's duel!"

---------------

On the other side of the portal, Gold and Shadow Master were the only two left standing.

Gold: 1500
Shadow Master: 3000

"You are all alone Golden Rise. Your so called team has fallen. Now it's just the two of us."

"That maybe so, but my friends are always in my heart. I will win this duel." Gold had a fire in his eyes. "No matter what, you will fall!" Gold 's phoenix wings appeared.

--------------

Sunset felt a power go through her. "Gold?" She closed her eyes, and saw Gold facing Shadow Master. She felt her heart soar at the site of him being a hero. "Let's end this together."

------------

Gold felt the same power, and heard Sunset's message. "Let's."

-----------------

A line of energy appeared on the ground in both worlds. The energy surged upwards, and revealed both worlds. Sunset was on one side, and Gold was on the other. They looked to each other and smiled.

"How can this be?!?" screamed Shadow Master.

"When two hearts are aligned," began Sunset.

"Anything can happen," finished Gold.

"And together we will defeat you both," they said together.

"Try us," said Shade with a snarl.

"Actually, your the one taking them on. I have some business to take care of." Shadow Master disappeared.

"Fine. I'll finish them," said an annoyed Shade.

Sunset and Gold: 5500
Shade: 4000

"I'll start by summoning out Castle of Dark Illusions in defense mode." Shade summoned his monster.

---------------

A larger stone floating castle appeared on the field. "Now I'll bring out my ace monster."

"If it's Zombie King, we can take him," said Gold.

"No, not him. It's time to introduce my new partner. Although I should thank Gold and Crimson. Without you two he would have never came to be."

"What do you mean?" asked Sunset.

"Well I took some energy from the two of them to create this creature. But enough talk, he grows tiresome. I sacrifice two monsters from my hand to bring out the true legendary Dragon. Come forth, Obsedian Dragon!"

A loud roar pierced the heavens. From the sky came a Dragon with black scales, and purple crystal wings. "Hello weaklings," he said.

"I'll end my turn."

"We gotta be careful. That castle wouldn't be on the field for no reason," said Sunset.

"Your right about that Ms. Shimmer. Thanks to the two monsters in my graveyards effects, they can come back in face down defense mode. It's your move."

"You can take the next turn Sunset," said Gold.

"Ok. I draw." Sunset drew her first card. "I summon out Open Hearth in defense mode."

---------------

---------------

White chains appeared over Shade's side of the field. "That should keep you down for a bit. I end my turn."

"You may have brought down my castle, but that wasn't all I had. I draw." Shade drew his card, and added it to his hand. "I activate Shared Souls."

-------------

--------------

"So now I end my turn, and the fun begins." A devilish smile crept onto his face.

Both Sunset's and Gold 's monsters disappeared. Then Obsedian Dragon fired a blast of purple energy at the two. They were both pushed to the ground.

Sunset and Gold: 220
Shade: 4000

Sunset and Gold both got up. "Man did that hurt," said Gold.

"Yeah, it did. But we still have to stop him," said Sunset.

"How can you? I control the duel. There's nothing you can do to stop me."

"That's where your wrong. Together we can stop you. Together..." Gold looked towards Sunset and smiled. "We have true magic." Suddenly the two were engulfed in a white light. Once the light cleared, Sunset was in her Daydream Shimmer form, and Gold was human again, but he had golden armor.

"This duel ends here," said Gold and Sunset in unison. "We activate Daydream Phoenix Fusion."

----------------

The sky filled with a white light. Two dragons descended. One was a white Dragon with a gold underbelly. The other was an armored Crimson with phoenix wings. "And thanks to their effects, Obsedian Dragon loses the attack it gained."

Obsedian Dragon: 3000

"This can't be happening!" Shade backed up until he it the statue.

"Now it's time to attack. Daydream Flame of Legends." The two dragons combined their powers. Once their power was at its peak, they let it fly.

Shade's field was covered in a bright light. "I was supposed to win!!!!" The scene went silent. Once the light and smoke cleared, Shade was no where to be seen. The energy combining both worlds.disappeared, but Gold was on.the other side now.

Sunset flew over and hugged Gold. "We did it."

"We rose to the occasion." Gold brought up Sunset's chin, and the two shared a kiss.

"Awwww." They didn't care that the others would see. They broke the kiss, and landed still hugging each other.

"Sorry to ruin this moment," said Burst. "But we got another guy to stop."

"He's right," said Star.

"And we will, together." Gold stuck his hand out. The others put their hands on top.

"Let's do this," they cheered.
