Okay, but watch how close it gets!
Chapter 14: The second round Begins.
As the duelist awoke the next morning and drifted into the main hall, everyone was psyched for the next duels. Then, a cloaked figure walked out among them. “Hello Duelist, and welcome to Round 2. Today’s opening Duel will be done between Yugi Moto and Syrus Trusdale.”
Syrus began to cry. “Oh no, I’m gonna lose…..”
Jaden patted him on the back. “Good luck, Sy!”
Tyranno nodded. “Yah! Chin up, solider”
Yugi walked onto the stage. “Pharaoh,” The spirit of Atem appeared beside him. What is it, Yugi? The spirit said. “Let me duel him alone. He would feel more confident and duel better if you just let me face him.” Very well. Atem’s spirit vanished.
Syrus composed himself and walked onto the stage. “All right, let’s duel!” The two’s duel disc lit up.
Syrus called out. “I’ll go first!” He drew. “I’ll play Drilloid in attack mode!” The large drill-nosed machine arose (1600/1600). Then 1 facedown and I’ll end my turn.”
“Not bad.” Yugi smiled as he drew. “I’ll play Beta the Magnet Warrior!” The yellow magnet arose (1700/1500). “Beta, attack!” The magnet warrior began it’s charge.
“I’ll activate my trap, Super Charge, so I get to draw 2 cards!” Syrus picked up his cards as Drilliod was destroyed and he went down to 3900 LP.
“Then I’m done!”
Syrus drew. “I activate Polymerization, so I fuse the Ambulanceroid and Rescueroid in my hand to create Ambulance Rescueroid!” A large red trunk arose on Syrus‘s field. (2300/1800). “Now, Ambulance Rescueroid, attack his magnet warrior!” The trunk ran up and nailed Beta, destroying it and lowering Yugi to 3400. “Then 1 facedown and I‘m done.”
Yugi drew. “I’ll lay a monster in defense, 1 facedown and end my turn.”
Syrus began to smile. “Then I’ll play Decoyroid!” A small little car rode up (300/500). “Now, Ambulance Rescueroid, attack!” The facedown critter died with a shriek.
“You just activated my Sangan’s effect, so I can add Gamma to my hand.” Yugi looked threw his deck and put Gamma into his hand.
“Now, Decoyroid, attack his LP.” Decoyroid honked its horn as it ran up and nailed Yugi, lowering him to 3100. “I’m done.”
Yugi drew. “I play Monster Reincarnation. By discarding my Summon Skull, I can add Alpha back to my hand. Then I’ll play Monster Reborn, to revive my Summon Skull!” The large fiend arose (2500/1200). “Now, Summon Skull, take out that Ambulance Reascueroid with Lighting Strike!” The fiend generated a static bolt and nailed poor Decoyroid, lowering Syrus to 1700 LP.
Syrus grinned. “I guess you didn’t know about Decoyroid’s effect. It takes all attacks directed at me and my monsters. I’ll activate Cyber Summon Blaster. Now, whenever I special summon a machine, you lose 300 LP! Then, my Ambulance Rescueroid’s special ability activates. Now, my Decoyroid is returned to my field.” The little car returned in defense mode. “Now Blaster, fire!” The trap charged up a bolt and zapped Yugi, lowering him to 2800 LP.
“I’m done then.”
Syrus drew. “Sweet. I’ll play Defusion, so now my Ambulance Rescueroid splits back into it’s two pieces, Ambulanceroid and Rescueroid.” The two machines arose in defense mode (1600/1800) (300/1200). “This activates my Blaster 2 more times!” Yugi dropped to 2200 LP. “Then a facedown to end my turn”
Yugi drew. “I’ll activate Brain Control. Now, I lose 800 to take control of your Rescueroid.” Yugi’s LP lowered to 1400 as the machine was placed on his field. “Then I sacrifice it to play Catapult Turtle!” The large green turtle arose (1000/2000). Catapult Turtle, attack his Decoyroid!” The turtle fired a small ball of energy, destroying the car. “Summon Skull, nail that Ambulanceroid!” The skull fired another bolt, electrifying the ambulance.
“Then, I’ll activate my Catapult’s special effect. I’ll launch off my skull to deal half it’s attack directly to your LP.” Summon Skull got onto the turtle’s back and was shot off like a rocket toward Syrus.
“Not so fast! I activate Mirror Damage, so you take the same amount of effect damage I do while this is out.” A large mirror rose in front of Syrus, and the blast recoiled and hit Yugi. Syrus dropped to 950, while Yugi dropped to 150 LP.
Yugi sighed. “Then a facedown card to end my turn.”
Syrus drew. “I’ll play Cycleroid in attack mode.” The little bicycle arose (800/1200). “Not that he’s staying. I’ll play Quick Summon, witch allows me to perform another normal summon, so I’ll sacrifice my Cycleroid for UFOroid.” The bike vanished to be replaced by a flying machine (1200/1200). “Now, UFOroid, attack his turtle!” The Roid began it’s charge. “Awesome, I beat Yugi!”
“Not necessarily. I activate Emergency Previsions. Now, I sac my other Spell to gain 1000 LP.” Yugi’s LP rose to 1150. The turtle was destroyed, lowering Yugi to 950.
“Then I’m done.”
Yugi drew his card. “I play Pot of Greed to draw 2 cards.” He picked up his cards. “Now, I sacrifice Alpha, Beta, and Gamma from my hand to special summon my Valkerion, the Magna Warrior!” The large metallic magnet man arose (3500/3850).
“NO!” Syrus gasped.
“Now, Valkerion, attack UFOroid!” The magnetic man created a large sword and slashed the machine, lowering Syrus to 0.
“And the winner, Yugi Moto!” The hooded figure called out.
Jaden ran up to Syrus. “You okay, Sy?”
Syrus smiled up at Jaden. “Yah, that was awesome.”
Yugi walked up to Syrus and they shook hands.
