C40 Next Stage - Kaiba vs. Kaiba Chapter 2

 

When everything had finally calmed down and the smoke had cleared.......to everyone's surprise, both Kaiba's were both standing.....their life points perfectly intact.

 

“Wha--? What happened?” Joey asked.

 

“It looks like......both of them activated a Ring of Defense at the same time.” Yugi said.

 

“No way!” Joey stated.

 

“This is getting way too tense to watch!” Tea said, closing her eyes.

 

Both Kaiba's stared each other down. Finally DTKaiba was first to speak, saying, “Well......that was a waste of a good card. You knew I had a Ring of Destruction earlier......you had to know I had a Ring of Defense on the field! Why waste it??”

 

“I had to know for sure. After all.....since you're still not very experienced with these new cards, I wasn't certain you'd catch onto the combo move. I had to make sure it wasn't something else, when I made my next move. After all, you can't do much more now except end your turn.....and I'm next.” JKaiba smirked, picking up a card.

 

DTKaiba narrowed his eyes. “You're bluffing. You can't do anything now, but summon a weak monster, if that's even possible. You're probably so overwhelmed by magic and trap cards now, I'd be shocked if you can even find a monster in what's left of that deck of yours!”

 

“Hmph.” JKaiba grinned. “I can do more than you think.”

 

DTKaiba's eyes twitched a bit, then glared down frantically at his cards. “I place one card face-down and then activate Card of Demise, replenishing my hand back to 5! I then place 2 more cards face-down and end my turn.”

 

“You sound desperate.” JKaiba muttered.

 

“All you can do is summon some weak pathetic monster. I need but survive 1 turn monster-less on the field and then this game is mine!” DTKaiba spouted.

 

“We'll see.......” JKaiba said, drawing a card. He then activates it, saying, “I use the card Soul Release!”

 

DTKaiba's eyes widened, showing his fear. `No....my Blue Eyes! Without it, I have no chance of summoning Ultimate Dragon!'

 

“Is something wrong?” JKaiba asked calmly.

 

“Just make your move!” DTKaiba spat, angrily.

 

During this time, Mokuba had sat down as his head was starting to nod down, ready to fall asleep. He whipped his head back up quickly, trying to force himself to stay awake. But he had been running around when he shouldn't have been, and his cold was once again starting to get the best of him. `I can't go to sleep.' he thought to himself. `I need to support Seto. Even if he isn't `my' Seto.....he's still Seto and would want me to support him. I've got to stay awake!'

 

“Fine, I will. I know what you're thinking......you're just itching to summon the Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon for the first time, aren't you? Well, personally.....I don't see why you're even thinking about it. After all, you all ready used Polymorization once when you created your Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon, remember? That's what you get for jumping the gun......now no Ultimate Dragon for you. But, no....I'm not targeting your monsters......I'm targeting mine. As you recall, you sent X-Head Cannon and Y-Dragon Head to the graveyard from your Dark Hole. Then with your Crush Card, you also sent my Z-Metal Tank to join them. Well, I will now take all 3 of them and remove them from play.” JKaiba stated.

 

Everyone looked at JKaiba strangely, even DTKaiba looked confused. “But......that doesn't make any sense. Why would you remove your monsters from play? What purpose could that possibly achieve!”

 

JKaiba blinked, expecting DTKaiba to be able to see the strategy clearer than day. He then glanced over at Yugi, finding him equally stunned. `What? Come on.....what's not to understand?'

 

This move even began to create an argument with the other Kaiba's.

 

“That's ridiculous.....why would he do that?” SMKaiba asked.

 

“How can you say that? It couldn't be more obvious than if he spelled it out to you!” VWKaiba said.

 

“If it's so obvious, then maybe you can explain it to us.....because I don't see the point of it!” MEKaiba yelled.

 

Tristan then began to laugh strangely, making Joey really begin to wonder about his friend. “Don't you get it, yet? We're not all part of the same exact time. He must have a card in the deck from his universe that some of us have never seen before!”

 

“Of course! That would make sense!” Philmore stated.

 

“Wait a minute......then he wont be able to use it!” SMKaiba exclaimed.

 

MKaiba retorted, “Yes he can! Any card with an official valid Duel Monster's number code on it can be used, even if it hadn't been brought out to the public yet. That's how the God cards were able to be used in the system, because they were still legal cards made by Pegasus......even if no one ever heard of them before.”

 

“Uh......what's a god card?” Yugi asked.

 

“You can't use a unique card from your own world!” DTKaiba practically screamed at the other. “It's not even `in' this existence, yet! That's......that's.......not fair!!”

 

JKaiba laughed at DTKaiba's comment, saying, “It's amusing hearing such a stupid comment coming out of another version of me. Since when is life fair?? I activate Return from a Different Dimension! I have to sacrifice 1/2 my life points in order for it to activate......but I don't think that really matters much, now. This card brings back all the monsters that I have recently removed from play! And as you know, these are three parts to an even greater powerful machine monster. Combined together, they make the XYZ Dragon Cannon!”

 

Most of Yugi's little group cheered Kaiba on, as he stared confidently down at DTKaiba. He still looked pissed about the new card in his deck that he didn't have. But, otherwise......he didn't seem to be in the least bit concerned.

 

“Hmph.....for someone having a 2800 attack monster breathing down your throat, when you have no monster on the field......you don't seem that worried.” JKaiba said.

 

DTKaiba shrugged. “I'm confident that I'll find a way to obliterate it next round. You just got lucky.”

 

“Well.....since you're not too concerned, maybe I should activate it's special ability, allowing me to destroy one card of my choice on the field!” JKaiba announced. That certainly got DTKaiba's attention and you could now finally see a sign of worry in his eyes.

 

But it faded quickly, as he said. “Well.....you have a choice of three cards. Which is it going to be?”

 

JKaiba made his choice and pointed. “I choose that one!”

 

DTKaiba grumbled a bit and Mirror Wall was destroyed.

 

JKaiba smirked, “No wonder you weren't worried. Too bad. Now, let's finish this! XYZ-Dragon Cannon, attack him directly!”

 

“Not so fast! I activate Negate Attack! It stops your attack for one turn.” DTKaiba said.

 

JKaiba said, “Fine......then I place one card face-down. Not that you'll have much of a turn, anyway. I may have had the effect of a Crush Card damage my deck, but I at present have the second highest duel monster of our decks on the field. And you.....you've already used your Polymerization card, making you unable to summon your Ultimate Dragon. That makes you out of luck, kid. Why don't just surrender now and get it over with.”

 

DTKaiba growled, “Will you end your turn, already?!!”

 

“Impatient to lose? I thought you wouldn't mind delaying what's coming next.” JKaiba smirked.

 

“End the damn turn, already!!” DTKaiba snarled, getting totally flustered.

 

“Very well.......I end my turn.” JKaiba smiled, amused on how easily this younger version of him got all worked up. He honestly couldn't remember being so lacking in control back then. He knew he was evil and just what he was capable of......but loss of control? Was he really that quick to snap, like that?

 

DTKaiba's eyes were twitching, as a trembling hand reached his deck and he roughly yanked it from his deck to look at it. He looked at it and slapped it down, saying, “I activate Pot of Greed, allowing me to pull 2 more cards to my hand!”

 

“Do what you want.....it's not going to matter.” JKaiba smirked. “Even if you pull out a Blue Eyes, you would still have to figure out how to summon it.....which you can't.”

 

DTKaiba looked at the cards he just got, then grinned ear to ear, causing the smile on JKaiba's face to fade. Indeed, DTKaiba then laughed like a maniac. “So......you don't think I can win, do you? Well feast your eyes on THIS! I use the magic card, Monster Reborn, returning by Blue Eyes back to life once again in MY control!”

 

JKaiba didn't look happy, but stated, “I see. Well.....it's still not enough to end the game. Even if you attack my monster, I will only loose 200 life points. Even as the low life point level I'm at now, it's still enough to keep you from finishing me.”

 

“It will be, after I activate THIS!” DTKaiba said, slapping down a magic card.

 

“No! That's a Fusion Gate!” JKaiba exclaimed.

 

Yami gasped. `It works like a polymerization card, except it permanently remains on the field allowing this Kaiba to fuse any monster together at any time!'

 

“But that also removes all 3 of his BEWDs permanently from play by doing that!” Yugi stated. “Doesn't that matter to him?”

 

Though DTKaiba wasn't paying attention, his words seemed to perfectly answer their question. “Did you think I'd be so reckless to not have another way at summoning my most powerful monster?” he asked JKaiba.

 

DTKaiba then looked at the Blue Eyes he returned, spitting, “I will not forgive you for turning on me! You are useless to me, now! So, removing you and all the other Blue Eyes from play will ensure none of you betray me again! Instead, all three will be of greater use as sacrifice by summoning the greatest Duel monster in existence! Behold, my Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon! Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!”
