Final Fantasy - All Series Fan Fiction / Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Spira's Tournement ❯ The Wrath of the LeBlanc Syndicate. Yugi and Kaiba teams again! ( Chapter 14 )

And here we are with the next chapter! Y'know what sucks? Is that you thought that the TCG effect was one thing, according to a few message boards, only to find out that it's completely the opposite. In other words, I found out that I actually used the Anime effect instead of the TCG effect. *sigh* I don't know what to do. A part of me doesn't want to rewrite some parts, but another part of me doesn't want to create another OC card unless I have to. That's why, as much as I am proud to be one, it sucks to be an American. Anyway…

 

Gallantmon of the Hazard - I know that there are Eight Aeons! But we're probably not going to see them all! Don't worry, I'm trying to update as fast as I can. But like I've said in the past, writing duels is becoming more of a chore! As for your other question…you're gonna have to wait and see!

 

MagicmanSmokegirl - True. As for the combination idea! You might give me a sick idea. Besides, if you want to see sick, read this and the next chapter. I'm probably gonna get flamed for this. If not for this chapter, than for the next.

 

FireGoddess101 - I noticed that, too! I was looking through the chapters as I updated. I pressed refresh and then I wondered why it no-showed.

 

xxxSethKisaraxxx - Thanks. I know that I've said it before, but I do try!

 

That Kid You Saw On The Street - Thanks. It'll get better.

 

Chapter 14: The Wrath of the LeBlanc Syndicate. Yugi and Kaiba teams again!

 

“So where's the rendezvous point?” Tristan asked as he and the group took the lift all the way to the exit of the Celsius. “It's at the entrance of Luca right?”

 

“Yeah, we can't go anywhere else until Brother and Buddy repair the Celsius.” Rikku explained. “Knowing Brother, it'll take a while…”

 

“You actually trust those numbskulls for repairs…” Kaiba rolled his eyes.

 

“Do you know how to repair an airship?” Tristan glared as they now exit the Celsius. “I didn't think so!”

 

“I wonder how everyone's going to react seeing me again.” Noah asked as he then took a glance at the pointy-haired brunette. “He already doesn't like me…”

 

“He'll come around.” Yuna assured. “It takes a while for people to forget and forgive.” She explained as she then said silently. “But I will never forgive Seymour for what he's done or what he's doing now…”

 

Marik managed to overhear the former High-Summoner as he then informed. “Which reminds me! I think someone, or rather a few people owe a couple more people an apology!”

 

“Huh?” Tristan blinked.

 

“Say again?” Rikku asked.

 

“You guys owe Bakura and me an apology! It wasn't our fault for what was going on!” Marik stated.

 

“Don't look me…” Kaiba sneered.

 

“I was with Seto when that happened…” Mokuba stated his alibi.

 

“We haven't even met you guys before.” Tidus stated as Noah nodded.

 

“Hey, we were just not taking any chances.” Tristan informed.

 

“You guys tied us up!” Marik protested.

 

“Did you really expect us to trust you knowing what you could've done?”

 

“You slapped, yelled, and screamed at me!”

 

“I have to agree that you did went a bit too far with the interrogation!” Bakura admitted.

 

“Hey, that was Brother! Not me!” Tristan explained himself.

 

“You did scream at me, though!”

 

Yuna placed a hand on the Egyptian's shoulder. “I'm sorry we've doubted you!” She apologized.

 

“Thanks Yuna.” Marik nodded before glaring at Tristan. “At least someone has the decency to admit they were wrong!”

 

“I'll tell ya what, I'll apologize to ya after the repairs of done. Then Brother, Buddy, and I'll alil apologize to ya.”

 

“Just apologize so he'll shut up…” Kaiba rolled his eyes.

 

“Setty's right! It's best to get it done before-” Rikku was interrupted as she stopped. Eyes went wide as she then stepped back a bit. “Umm…”

 

“What now…” Kaiba saw what was the matter as a group of Ninja-based Duel monsters invaded their way towards them. “Not this again…”

 

“I'm not in the mood for this…” Tidus drew his sword as Yuna produced her pistols. Rikku followed suit with her daggers as Kaiba and Noah activated their Duel Disks.

 

“Let's get this over with, okay!” Rikku got into a fighting position as they all began to defend themselves from duel monsters such as the Sasuke Samurais, all four kinds of them, and the Armed Ninjas.

 

“This is getting old…” Kaiba summoned a monster. “Go Enraged Battle Ox!” He ordered as the Ox-like Beast Warrior proceeded to wipe out the Sasuke Samurais with his axe.

 

“It would be nice if I could help…” Tristan sighed, being apart of the group without either a duel disk or a weapon.

 

“If I would've known there'd be dueling, I would've brought my deck.” Marik commented.

 

“I hear ya…” Mokuba agreed as he then spotted a Ninja throwing a shuriken at Mokuba.

 

“Look out!” Tristan jumped in the way as he shoved Mokuba out of the way, leaving the shuriken the stab right through Tristan's thigh, which resulted in a bloodied scream!

 

“Tristan!” Rikku looked back as she stabbed a Master Kyonshee, thus destroying it.

 

Yuna looked over to see the injured brunette on the ground, favoring the leg, which the shuriken was stuck in. “Hold on!”

 

Marik went to pull the weapon from the leg. “Man, it's deep.”

 

“Thank you Captain Obvi-OWW!” Tristan winced at the pain.

 

“Calm down…” Marik continued the pull!

 

“You get stabbed in the leg and you try to stay calm!”

 

“I hope Tristan'll be okay…” Mokuba said to Bakura. What he didn't know was that Ninja Grandmaster Sasuke, just transforming back from his log camouflage, threw a net towards Mokuba.

 

“HEY!” Mokuba, now caught tries to break free from the net as the Ninja went to reel him in.

 

“Mokuba!” Bakura and Marik grabbed onto the net as the tried to pull Mokuba back towards them, but the pull of the Ninja was too strong for them to face as the net was released from their hands.

 

“Not again…” Kaiba just now realized that his brother was captured, for the hundredth time basically as he began to run after him. If anything was getting old, his brother being kidnapped was high on the list. “Mokuba!”

 

“Seto!” Mokuba called out desperately for his older brother as the Ninja proceeded to carrying him inside the bag, as if he were a sack of goodies.

 

Everyone else has now realized what was going on as well, as Kaiba fought his way through the invading Ninja Duel Monsters to reach the one with his brother. “Seto!” Noah called out to the elder Kaiba!

 

“Mokie!” Rikku cried as they all but Tristan went after the 2/3 of the Kaiba brothers, but were held at bay by the other Ninjas.

 

…

 

“You mean to tell me that you've never been on an Airship before?” Serenity asked, puzzled at the fact that Aria, Erika, or even Arana have ever ridden on an Airship before, as they all head toward the exit ,which will lead them to the Mi'hen Highroad, the place where they would meet up with the others.

 

“That's right. We had other things to worry about!” Erika explained to the Auburn-haired girl.

 

“But it would be nice to ride on one.” Arana explained. “I've always heard how cool they were.”

 

“Didn't your parents work on one of something?” Yugi asked.

 

“No. We were basically alone for all of our lives.” Aria informed, much to the duelist's shock.

 

“Alone? Why?”

 

“Our father was gone a long time ago, and as for my mom? Let's just say that we weren't exactly the hottest things since sliced bread.”

 

“It's not like your parents would abandon you or anything! After all, they are your parents!” Tea stated.

 

“Please…” Joey crossed his arms. Having his own personal opinion of the care parents bring to a child, or lack thereof. “Not all parents will take responsibility. For some parents, all they care about is themselves. No matter how bad of a situation they'd leave their own flesh an' blood!”

 

“That's not true Joey, and you know it!” Serenity responded, not too happy. It was obvious to her what he was referring to. “You knew how things were back-”

 

“So yer defendin' her fer what she did to me?” Joey snapped back.

 

“If you would just calm down and think about it from her point of view-”

 

“There's no excuse fer what she did!”

 

Erika, Aria, and Arana watched the argument between brother and sister, debating over what, or who, rather, was wrong or not. Apparently the Wheeler family had a few skeletons in the closet. Particularly Joey. Yugi and Tea were also shocked, as knowing how long they've known them, Especially Joey, they never thought that things were that bad in the family. Tristan had told them that Joey and his mom had problems, but not to that much extreme.

 

“Face it Serenity! What Ma did to me was fu…er…messed up! There's no excuse in the word that would justify that! That's that! End of story! Baby goes ta sleep, now!” And with that, Joey walked away.

 

“Why can't you just put it to the past!?” Serenity shouted at him before looking at the triplets. “I'm sorry, ya know…sometimes…I don't know…Joey-”

 

“Has a point!” Arana cut off Serenity. Apparently from what has happened to them, Joey made sense about his opinion on parents. They then went after the blonde. However, it appeared that they wouldn't have to go anywhere as Joey came tumbling down the stairs. “Whoa!”

 

Following the unfortunate blonde was a certain CEO who didn't have time to waste. After all, he was in pursuit of a certain kidnapping Duel Monster. “Watch where you're going, Chump!” He sneered as he brushed through the others.

 

“Kaiba!” Yugi called after him. “What's wrong?”

 

“Stay out of this, Yugi!” He sneered as he spotted the Strike Ninja, with the net that contained Mokuba over his back. “Get back here!” He shouted as he once again went in pursuit of the kidnapper. “Let Mokuba go!”

 

“Kaiba wait!” Yugi ran after him as Tea followed him.

 

“What's going on?” She asked as they both ran after Kaiba.

 

“Apparently from what I'm hearing, Mokuba's been kidnapped!” Yugi briefed.

 

“Again?”

 

“Yes! Apparently they're at it again!”

 

“That pompous arrogant sunnova…” Joey rubbed his head as he got up.

 

“Come on, Joey!” Serenity called! Not wanting to be left behind form what was going on.

 

“For what? To help Kaiba! Yer crazy!”

 

“He really needs our help!” Serenity placed her plea as Joey placed a hand on his forehead. After feeling something else than what he wanted, he brought his palm to his line of vision, only to find a bit of crimson. Much to his anger…

 

“After what that creep did to me just now? I ain't helping that jerk, screw-”

 

“JOEY!”

 

“What? Yer sayin' I can't say `screw' now?”

 

“I know what you're implying, Joey!”

 

“My head's bleeding, and YOU'RE LECTURING ME ON WHAT I'M SAYING!?”

 

“Well Joey…” Serenity then glared, “SUIT YOURSELF!” And with that she ran after Tea and Yugi, ready and willing to help out whatever way she can.

 

“Fine, help Kaiba! Don't expect a thank you from that ingrate!” Joey shouted as Aria then placed a hand on his shoulder.

 

“Calm down Joey!” She insisted. “We need to get something for that cut.”

 

Joey sighed, “I love her. I really do! I know she's tryin' her best to help make me a betta person, but Serenity is startin' to get on my last-”

 

“Let's forget about her for now…” Arana insisted. “There's a First Aid kit at the bar.”

 

“Thanks…” Joey kept his blood-filled palm on the opening of the blood flow. “She's upset that I'm not helping Kaiba! Well I helped him before and what did I get? `Joey you look like an overgrown monkey in that outfit!' Well he can just kiss my-”

 

“Joey!”

 

Joey met Aria with a glare. “Yer not helping!”

 

“Just couldn't resist!” She giggled. “Now let's treat that cut!”

 

…

 

`Don't worry Mokuba, I'm coming…' Kaiba continued to chase after the Duel Monster. He was getting sick of the whole thing. He made a mental note, once he got back to Domino, to enroll Mokuba for Karate lessons.

 

“Kaiba!”

 

Kaiba groaned as he looked back to see Yugi following, surprisingly managing to lose Tea. “I told you to stay out of this, Yugi!”

 

“You know what's been going on Kaiba, and it's too dangerous to go by yourself!”

 

“To hell with my safety! They have my brother!” Kaiba hissed as he stopped, eyes narrowing down.

 

Yugi stopped as well as he glared at what, or who, rather, he saw! “Logos and Ormi.”

 

“Looks like the fish has caught the bait.” Logos smirked, arms crossed. “You can lead a mouse to cheese, but you can't lead it away from the trap!”

 

“YOU TWO ARE BEHIND THIS!?” Kaiba screamed. To say that he was pissed would be a huge understatement. “YOU KIDNAPPED MY BROTHER AGAIN!? TELL ME, CAN'T YOU GRAB MY ATTENTION BY DOING SOMETHING ORIGINAL FOR ONCE!?”

 

“Believe me, Kaiba! We do have something original planned for you…both of you…” Ormi smiled.

 

Yugi glared. “You're behind the attacks, aren't you! You sent your thugs to order Duel Monsters to attack innocent people, and for what? Just to fulfill your lust for power!”

 

“You bite your tongue!” Logos snapped. “While you're right about us sending our troops to gain souls, you know nothing about our goals!”

 

“I could care less about your goals! You've kidnapped Mokuba before, and now you've kidnapped him for the last time!”

 

“So what are you going to do about it, Kaiba? Throw another one of your cards for me to shoot down, like your Blue Eyes?” Logos taunted, bringing up how he lost his first Blue Eyes.

 

Yugi blinked, now hearing about this! He knew that there was a reason why Kaiba challenged Rikku for her Blue Eyes. Was this it? “Kaiba, do you mean-”

 

“SAVE IT, YUGI!” He snapped, not wanting him to know about his humiliating loss.

 

“We don't have time for you to mourn for your lost cards, we have other business to attend to with you!” Logos informed.

 

“That's right!” Ormi added. “We're going to duel you!”

 

Kaiba scoffed with a smirk, “You two? Duel against me? Don't make me laugh! You'd have a better chance using your weapons!”

 

“Why I would love nothing more than to shoot a few rounds into your pompus face, we have our reasons to do otherwise. But let's not forget about the prize…” Logos informed

 

Kaiba narrowed his eyes, “What prize…”

 

“Why your dear brother, Mokuba, of course!” Logos gave a sadistic smile.

 

“How dare you…” Kaiba hissed. “I swear to god so help me, I will make you pay for all you have done to my family!”

 

“Save it for the duel, Kaiba!” Ormi stated. “Speaking of which, it's time for both of you to get your duel disks ready!”

 

“If that's your game, very well!” Yugi activated his duel disk.”

 

“It's going to be a two-on-two duel! Us against you!” Logos explained the rules, which made Kaiba scoff.

 

“Don't make me laugh! If this is the originality you mentioned, you're fooling yourself! The last time a pair of chumps wanted a double duel against Yugi and I, they ended up at the wrong end of my power!”

 

“Oh it doesn't end there!” Logos continued. The rules that we will use will be the Deck Master mode! Meaning that we each select one monster to be our Deck master! If that deck monster is destroyed at any time during the duel, you automatically lose!”

 

“Oh please…” Kaiba rolled his eyes. “You must've had meetings with the Big Five! That's exactly the same rules they gave us! But I'll humor you and except your challenge.” He said as he then activated his duel disk.

 

“I accept as well!” Yugi narrowed, activating his duel disk as well. “You two will pay for what you've done!”

 

“Enough talk!” Logos hissed as the two LeBlanc Syndicate members activated their duel disks. “Time to choose our Deck Masters!”

 

“I'll choose Kaiser Seahorse as my Deck Master.” Kaiba announced as Kaiser Seahorse appeared next to him.

 

“And I'll choose Dark Magician to be my Deck Master!” Yugi announced as the Magician himself appeared beside him.

 

“It's my turn!” Logos then announced, “I'll choose Infernalqueen Archfiend to be my deck master!” The queen of the Archfiends then appeared beside him.

 

“And finally, my deck master will be Pandemonium Watchbear!” Ormi announced as a Red bear, who was in chains, appeared next to the shorter Syndicate member as the Life Points were set.

 

Yugi: 8000
Kaiba: 8000
Logos: 8000
Ormi: 8000

 

“Let's duel!” They all shouted as then, Logos decided to start the duel.

 

“I'll start by playing Archfiend Soldier (1900/1500) in attack mode!” Logos announced as double-horned fiend soldier appeared on the field. “That ends my turn!”

 

Now his turn, Ormi decided to summon a monster. “I'll play Agent of Creation - Venus (1600/0) in attack mode as well!” He announced as a blonde-haired female angel appeared on the field. “Since I can't attack since our side has gone first, it'll end my turn by placing a card facedown.” Ormi concluded his turn as a card appeared in front of Venus.

 

Kaiba drew a card. “I'll place two cards facedown and summon Des Feral Imp (1300/1400) in attack mode!” Kaiba announced as the reptile appeared on the field. “That ends my turn for now.”

 

Yugi finally draws his first card. “I'll place one monster and one card facedown in defense mode and end my turn!” He announced, which amused Logos.

 

“The king of games going on the defensive? I'm shocked.” He sighed, “Oh well, at least we can do some damage to Kaiba's Des Feral Imp!” He sighed, “I now activate my Deckmaster's special ability to increase one of my archfiend's attack points by 1000 till the end of each turn! And since he's the only Archfiend monster on the field, I'll increase my Archfiend Soldier's attack points (2900/1500).” Logos announced as Infernalqueen Archfiend used her powers to increase the Archfiend Soldier's attack points by 1000. “Now I'll place one monster facedown in defense mode as well as one card facedown!” Logos smiled as he eyed Kaiba's Des Feral Imp. “Now my Archfiend Soldier, attack Kaiba'd Des Feral Imp with your Sword Slash!” He ordered as the Archfiend Soldier went to slice the lizard in half.

 

“I don't think so! Activate Trap Card, Ring of Destruction!” Kaiba announced as the trap card was revealed, The Archfiend Soldier then found a detonation ring wrapped around his neck.

 

“I see, with your ring of Destruction, you're going to inflict the same amount of damage to both of our Life Points as my Archfiend Soldiers!”

 

Kaiba smirked, “You're half right, thanks to my other facedown card, Waboku!” He announced as a trio of maidens appeared in front of him. “Waboku shields my Life Points from whatever damage I might receive from this turn! So the only one who's losing life points is you, Logos!”

 

“Think again Kaiba!” Ormi announced. “You're not the only one with a Trap Card! That's why I activate my Trap Jammer!” He announced as he discarded a card to his graveyard! “Negating your Waboku! So if Logos loses any Life Points, so do you!”

 

Kaiba seethed as the maidens disappeared, following by the ring exploding, destroying Logo's Archfiend Soldier as his and Logos' Life Points began to drop…

 

Yugi: 8000
Kaiba: 5900
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 8000

 

“We knew that being as much as a master you claimed to be you'd sent out a monster to bait us, so I had a surprise waiting for you!”

 

“You haven't won yet, Ormi!” Yugi declared. “We're just getting started!”

 

“'We' aren't doing anything!” Kaiba snapped at the shorter duelist. “I'm doing this for myself! We're not doing this team nonsense again!”

 

“Kaiba, if we're going to rescue Mokuba, we're going to have to work together!”

 

“Remember our duel against Lumis and Umbra, Yugi? I won the duel not because of our Teamwork, but because of me, and my Egyptian God Card.”

 

Logos ended his turn, “It's your move now Ormi!”

 

“With Pleasure!” Ormi drew a card. “Now I'll play the Spell Card The Sanctuary in the Sky.” He announced as clouds filled the field, save for a white sanctuary appearing in the field. “It may appear to be useless now, but it'll benefit us in the long run! Next, I'll summon Warrior of Zerra (1600/1600) in attack mode!” Ormi summoned as through the Pyroflies, the Archlord-hopeful Warrior appeared on the field! “First, Agent of Creation, attack Kaiba's Des Feral Imp!” The LeBlanc Syndicate member ordered as the female Angel unleashed a damaging bright ray onto the Feral Imp, destroying it and a bit of Kaiba's life points.

 

Yugi: 8000
Kaiba: 5600
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 8000

 

“Your turn, Warrior of Zera! Now attack Kaiba directly!” Ormi ordered as Zera rushed towards Kaiba, holding his sword up high to attack the CEO, who shielded himself.

 

“Activate Shadow Spell!”

 

Logos, Ormi, and Kaiba turned around to see Yugi's Trap Card activate as from said card, chains shot out and bind the warrior, forcing him to drop his sword as his attack consequently dropped (900/1600). “This card allows me to select one of your monster and prevent it from attacking or changing position, in addition to decreasing its attack by 700! Including your Warrior of Zerra!” He explained.

 

“I told you I don't need your help, Yugi!” Kaiba protested yet again!

 

“I end my turn.” Ormi announced. “But you still have my Agent of Creation to worry about!”

 

Kaiba drew a card. “Not for long, as I now summon Vorse Raider (1900/1200) in attack mode!” Kaiba announced as the dark, wicked Beast Warrior was summoned onto the field! “It's payback time, Ormi! Vorse Raider, destroy Ormi's Warrior of Zerra!” He ordered as Vorse Raider tossed its blade at Zerra, which sliced through the chains, and himself as Ormi's Life Points began to drop…

 

Yugi: 8000
Kaiba: 5600
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 6800

 

“I end my turn by placing one card facedown!” Kaiba announced as a facedown card materialized onto the field.

 

It was Yugi's turn as he drew a card. “Not bad.” He commented as he summoned a card. “I now summon Skilled White Magician in attack mode (1700/1900)!” Yugi announced as a magician dressed in white, including a hood that covered his head, carrying a scepter appeared on the field. “Next, I reveal my facedown monster, Obnoxious Celtic Guardian (1400/1200)!” Yugi announced as the Retrained version of Celtic Guardian appeared on the field. “Now Skilled White Magician, attack Ormi's Agent of Creation - Venus!” Yugi ordered as the Magician fired a powerful mystical blast at the Angelic Agent, destroying it and a bit of his life points!

 

Yugi: 8000
Kaiba: 5600
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 6700

 

Yugi was far from done with the LeBlanc Syndicate member! “Now, Obnoxious Celtic Guardian, attack Ormi directly!” He ordered as the elf warrior rushed towards Ormi and with a forceful swing of his sword, even more of his life points were lowered.

 

Yugi: 8000
Kaiba: 5600
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 5300

 

“I end my turn by placing one card facedown.” Yugi announced. “You're not as confident as your are before, are you!”

 

“You might have had a lucky draw, but did you think that we didn't come prepared?” Logos drew a card. `This will do nicely…' He thought as he placed it onto the field. “I now reveal my facedown monster, Shadowknight Archfiend (2000/1600) and summon another Archfiend Soldier in attack mode!” Logos announced as the facedown card was flipped face up in attack mode, resulting in the summoning of the fiend knight with a shield and a sword for hands, save for his bat-like wings. Next came the normal summoning of the same soldier of the Archfiends. “Next, I'll equip my Archfiend Soldier with an Axe of Despair, raising its attack power to 2900!” Logos announced as the Axe of Despair appeared in his hands (2900/1500). A grin came to his face. “Decisions decisions… should I take out both Yugi's Skilled White Magician and Obnoxious Celtic Guardian, or should I attack Kaiba's Vorse Radier and next attack him directly? It's time to eliminate the weak link, so Shadowknight Archfiend, destroy Kaiba's Vorse Raider!” The Shadowknight Archfiend proceeded to attack as he flew over towards the dark beast warrior and with a slice of his sword-like hand Vorse Raider was eliminated, as well as Kaiba's Life Points….

 

Yugi: 8000
Kaiba: 5500
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 5300

 

“Lucky for you, every time my Shadowknight Archfiend inflicts damage to your life points, that same amount of damage gets cut in half! Unfortunately, the case is not the same with my Soilder!” Logos informed as he then ordered. “Archfiend Soldier, attack Yugi's Obnoxious Celtic Guardian! He hasn't lost any life points yet and I don't want him to go unscathed!” The Demon Soldier ran over towards Obnoxious Celtic Guardian as it swung its axe! However the Elf managed to block the attack with his sword, but he still felt the results as Yugi's Life Points began to drop…”

 

Yugi: 6500
Kaiba: 5500
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 5300

 

“You may have lowered my Life Points, but my Obnoxious Celtic Guardian's special ability is that even if your monsters are stronger, they cannot destroy him!” Yugi informed!

 

“Hmph, that just means that I can still attack him as much as I want until your Life Points are gone!” Logos placed a card facedown. “My turn ends with a card being placed facedown!

 

Ormi drew a card. “I'll now summon another Warrior of Zerra (1600/1600) in attack mode!” Ormi bragged as another Zerra Warrior was summoned onto the field. “And just for something a little different, I'll equip him with Black Pendant to increase his attack (2100/160)!” Ormi played the spell card as a Black Pendant appeared around Warrior of Zerra's neck. Now for my piece of Yugi's Obnoxious Celtic Guard!” Ormi then ordered, “Warrior of Zerra, attack Yugi's Obnoxious Celtic Guard!” Once again, the Zerrian warrior went to attack with his sword, and once again, Obnoxious Celtic Guardian blocked it! Still, Yugi's Life Points dropped even further…

 

Yugi: 6500
Kaiba: 5500
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 5300

 

“You made a big mistake playing that card, and it's just getting started for you!” Ormi taunted. “Now I end my turn by placing one card facedown!”

 

Kaiba drew a card and smiled after he saw what it was. `This'll teach those idiots a lesson they'll never forget!' Kaiba proceed to go along with his turn. “Now I activate my Trap Card Call of the Haunted, to bring back my Des Feral Imp!” He said as from the ground, the reptile creature rose! “Next, I'll activate my Deckmaster's special ability! Kaiser Seahorse's special ability allows me to summon a two-tribute light-attribute monster with only one tribute!”

 

Both Syndicate members' eyes went wide! Apparently they both knew what was coming next. “You don't mean!”

 

“Oh I do…” Kaiba placed a card down on his duel disk! I now sacrifice my Des Feral Imp to summon my Blue Eyes White Dragon (3000/2500)!” As the reptilian imp was sacrificed, in his place was the summoning of the strongest Normal monster, let alone normal dragon onto the field! “My Blue Eyes is ready to send you both to oblivion! With that said, Blue Eyes White Dragon, destroy Ormi's Warrior of Zerra with White Lightning!” With the order, Blue Eyes' mouth opened as a small orb of light began to form from inside, preparing for its attack. “There's no way out…” Blue Eyes then fired its White Lighting at Warrior of Zerra, completely destroying the unfortunate warrior as Ormi's Life Points dropped, but so did Kaiba and Yugi's...

 

Yugi: 6000
Kaiba: 5000
Logos: 5900
Ormi: 4400

 

“At least you won't leave this battle unscathed, due to my Black Pendant's special ability!” Ormi reminded.

 

“That's just a small price to pay to take you down! I end my turn!” Kaiba concluded as Yugi went to draw a card.

 

“Now, I activate my Spell card, Emblem of Dragon Destroyer, which allows me to move my Buster Blader from my deck to my hand!” Yugi informed as he went to his deck, grabbed his Buster Blader card, then reshuffle his deck. “I must ask you both, how many spell cards were activated since my Skilled White Magician was on the field?”

 

Logos and Ormi was confused. “Now is no time for mind games!” The taller of the two scolded.

 

Kaiba agreed with them to an extent. “What are you doing Yugi!”

 

“If I recall correctly, you Logos played Axe of Despair, you Ormi played Black Pendant, and I just played Emblem of Dragon Destroyer! Making it a total of three Spell Cards played since my Skilled White Magician was summoned on to the field! One of his special abilities is that every time a Spell card is played a Spell counter is added to him!

 

Ormi blinked. “That must mean that your Magician now has three Spell counters!”

 

“And that's not all! When Skilled White Magician has three Spell Counters, he can be sacrificed to summon a more powerful monster!” Yugi informed. “A monster that I just placed in my hand!”

 

Logos, being smarter than Ormi, managed to put two and two together! “You don't mean!”

 

Yugi proceeded to confirm his accusations. “I now sacrifice my Skilled White Magician to Special Summon Buster Blader in attack mode (2600/2300)!” Yugi announced as the Dragon-Slaying Warrior appeared onto the field! “Next, I sacrifice my Obnoxious Celtic Guard to summon Curse of Dragon in attack mode (2000/1500)!” Yugi announced as the Elf Warrior was sacrificed. In his place was the golden fiend-like dragon. “Next, I play Polymerization to fuse my Curse of Dragon with a card in my hand, Gaia the Fierce Knight!” Yugi picked up the Spell card from his hand and placed it on the field. The lance-welding horseman appeared on the field next to the Dragon. “Now Curse of Dragon, combine with Gaia to form…” Both dragon and warrior were mixed into a vortex created by the Polymerization card as the LeBlanc Syndicate watched on. After it was done, Gaia, instead of his horse, was mounted on Curse of Dragon “Gaia, the Dragon Champion (2600/2100)!”

 

Logos and Ormi were now in a serious mess! Both of their opponent's have now summoned three of their most powerful monsters onto the field! Ormi was the most unfortunate as at least Logos still had his Archfiend monsters on the field!

 

“Now Buster Blader, destroy Logos' Shadowknight Archfiend!” Yugi ordered as Buster Blader rush after the Shadowknight and sliced it into two, managing to take out a bit of Logo's Life Points…

 

Yugi: 6000
Kaiba: 5000
Logos: 5300
Ormi: 4400

 

“Now Gaia the Dragon champion, attack Ormi directly with Spiral Spear Strike!” Yugi turned his attention towards the shorter Syndicate member as the Dragon Champion hit him hard, as well as his Life Points…

 

Yugi: 6000
Kaiba: 5000
Logos: 5500
Ormi: 1800

 

“I end my turn!” Yugi concluded. “One more move, and we win the duel!”

 

Logos drew a card as then, a dark grin appeared on his face. “You think that you've won? You think that we're finished?”

 

Kaiba crossed his arms. “As much as I despise this whole Tag Team nonsense, Yugi has a point! Your friend Ormi only has 1800 Life Points left, and we both have a monster that could easily wipe out the rest of his Life Points!”

 

“That would be the case, but not anymore, once I play this!” Logos laughed as he showed them both the card he just drew. Much to both Yugi's and, to an extent, Kaiba's shock, it was the Eye of Horus!

 

“Oh no…” Yugi gasped.

 

“Great…you two idiots believe in that Hocus-Pocus nonsense? Why am I not surprised?” Kaiba expressed his disgust.

 

“You're a fool not to believe the power we now hold, Kaiba!” Logos then placed the card onto his Duel Disk, “And now, I activate the Eye of Horus!” Suddenly, the familiar purple fog began to appear throughout the area as the Eye on the card glowed abnormally.

 

“Great…” Tea sighed as she continued to run. `Now that he's taller, he manages to leave you behind.' She sighed. `Maybe I should've worn sneakers instead.' She mused as she heard a familiar voice call out to her.

 

Tea turned around as she saw Serenity catching up with her! “Serenity!”

 

The Auburn haired girl stopped to catch her breath. “Tea…where's Yugi!”

 

“He left me behind…” Tea sighed. “He could barely keep up with me when he was short, now I can hardly keep up with him.” She looked around. “Where's Joey!”

 

“He didn't want to come, and to be honest, I don't care!” Serenity crossed her arms, causing Tea to blink. She had never seen Serenity so angry before, especially when it came to her brother.

 

“Did something happen?”

 

“He's just been…you know…a jerk! He can be so stubborn sometimes…”

 

“Serenity, is this about what he said, about -”

 

“I just don't want to talk about him right now…” She sighed as she then noticed the darkening of an area. “Come on…something's happening.”

 

“Hey!” Tea called out to the girl who was now running. “Wait a second! You don't know what's going to happen!”

 

“I don't care!” She stated, not stopping! “I'm going to see what's going on and that's that!”

 

Tea sighed as she decided to follow her. “I hope nothing bad happens to us…”

 

The Eye of Horus shined brightly on the foreheads of Logos he grinned darkly. “Now we're the ones with the advantage, as this is now a Shadow Game!” Logos explained evilly.

 

“And speaking of Shadow Games…” Ormi's grin became wide. “Kaiba, I'm sure that you're gonna to love this one!”

 

Kaiba glared, still not moved by the change in events. “Hmph, surprise me…” Unfortunately, his wish was answered as his eyes went wide at what he saw. “Horrified” might have been how he was feeling. “Oh no…”

 

Yugi shared the exact same emotion. “That's…”

 

“Huh?” Mokuba's eyes opened as he looked around in his new surroundings, only to feel his ankles and wrists in shackles. “How th-Wha?” Apparenlty he was being suspended up above as he saw the familiar purple fog. His face was filled with fear. “Where am I!? SETO!”

 

“MOKUBA!” Kaiba realized the situation his brother was in as he glared at Logos! “THIS TIME YOU HAVE GONE TOO FAR, LOGOS!”

 

Logos just grinned as he let out a chuckle, “You have no idea how far we'll go…”

 

 

A few notes I want to make. Usually I try to keep it under TCG rules only using TCG card with an exception of a few of my OC cards. But in this case I decided to make an exception. I flat-out refuse to use the TCG name “Obnoxious Celtic Guard” instead of “Obnoxious Celtic Guardian.” The reason why they take out the “ian” is probably to keep it being searchable by Arsenal Summoner (which I think is ridiculous).

 

Preview for Next Chapter!

 

“So your boss is in trouble! That's no reason to take it out on my brother!” Kaiba yelled!

 

“Our new employers made a deal with us! If we gain both of your souls and hand them over, they would restore LeBlanc! But personally, we would've done it for free anyway! There's still the infiltration of our chateau!”

 

“And we're looking for revenge for that Penalty Game you played on us, too Yugi!” Ormi added.

 

“But that's no reason for what you've done! Many people have lost their souls because of you!” Yugi exclaimed. “And you believe Yami Marik and Yami Bakura? Do you really believe that they'll keep their word and bring back LeBlanc's soul?”

“I DON'T CARE!”

 

Chapter 15: Logos' Sick Game! Mokuba on the line!
