Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ chap I ❯ dark beginnings ( Chapter 1 )

As a dark figure entered the local comic shop heads turned to look in the direction of the door. As the door whooshed shut a figure clocked in a dark shroud reached the counter in seconds and asked for the tournament sign up sheet; after glancing at the names listed the figure proceeded into the back of the shop glancing sideways at each person as he pasted them. Masumi, a fifteen year old duelist, walked by people started muttering about him, maybe it was because he had won the local tournament the last four times it was held here. “ Hey; I've come to sign up.” “Yes sir. And would you like to use some of your store credit today?” “ Yes I'll take four booster packs of invasion of chaos a pack of Dark Crisis

and a box of Ancient Sanctuary ” “Will that be all?” Masumi nods. “Are you Masumi Tokanza?” An uneasy silence fell over the room. As Masumi turned to answer, but before he could his best friend ran up and said “ I am Masumi what can I do for you?” “Don't make me laugh kid. Now were is the real Masumi?” “ He's not here right now but we expect him any minute, he is after all the champion, he must defend his title today.” The clerk finished “Wait, wait, wait!” A boy about 15 yelled at the small group of ragtag duelists “I am the real Masumi, now what do you want.” Masumi said a little coldly to the stranger who looked a little shocked at the outburst.” A duel is all I want, winner takes the losers deck and the loser must retire from duel monsters forever. Does that sound fair to you?” he said sitting down “Ya that sounds fair.” “Since I challenged you I'll go first.” The man stated simply. “ I play two cards facedown and one monster in defense mode; your move.” A black aura seemed to radiate from Masumi as he took his turn; first I play the field card Mystic Plasma Zone, next I lay three cards facedown and summon archfiend soldier in attack mode. Your move.” “ I tribute my face down monster for the summoned skull!” the man began, but as soon as it was summoned a card triggered.” Ha! You triggered my trap. Go Compulsory evacuation device!” “ I end my turn.” The man finished. “Go my archfiend! Sword arm attack!” as twenty-four hundred life points drained from the stranger Masumi ended his turn. “ I summon a monster in defense mode and end my turn.” I lay one card facedown and play the spell card change of heart! As the control of the stranger's monster shifted Masumi decided to look at it <the man-eater bug> Masumi thought to himself and out loud “ I flip the card into attack position. Attack his life points my monsters!” as twenty-nine fifty drained away from the stranger's life points he just laughed and drew. “I play the card Raigeki!”
