Hacks in the System (Part 3)
[Previously on Yu-Gi-Oh...]
"I?ll start my turn with Shrink to halve your Dark Paladin?s ATK," declared Kaiba.
"Not if I use Dark Paladin?s other effect first. I can discard 1 card and negate Shrink?s effect and destroy Shrink, even during your turn," countered Yugi before discarding a card.
"Yugi, you took my bait. I wanted you to use up the last card in your hand. Now Dark Paladin can?t stop any more of my Spell Cards. I Summon Peten the Dark Clown (500 ATK) in Attack Mode. Next, I?ll activate Crush Card Virus to Tribute it and cripple your Deck, not to mention take down your Dark Paladin," stated Kaiba. *Dark Paladin is destroyed and Yugi sends the affected monsters to the Graveyard.*
"Here goes! I Summon Silent Magician LV4 (1000 ATK) in Attack Mode. Alpha and Silent Magician, attack Kaiba directly! *Kaiba?s LP drops to 3700.* I?ll Set 1 card and end my turn," told Yugi. (Hand: 1 card)
"That?s no threat to me. Face it, Yugi. You have nothing against my Deck! I?ll start my turn by playing Blade Knight (1600 ATK) in Attack Mode," began Kaiba.
"Still, you drew a card and that gives my Silent Magician 500 ATK and a Spell Counter," interrupted Yugi. Silent Magician?s ATK rises to 1500.
"Should I be impressed? Due to Blade Knight?s effect, it gains 400 ATK since I have 1 or less cards in my hand. Blade Knight?s ATK rises to 2000. Blade Knight, destroy Silent Magician LV4!" declared Kaiba.
"Never underestimate the weak, Kaiba. I?m about to show you a thing or two about size. I activate Spellbinding Circle, keeping your monster from attacking," protested Yugi.
"I end my turn, but you?re not going to fair any better," finished Kaiba. (Hand: 0 cards)
"That?s where you?re wrong, Kaiba. I play Green Gadget (1400 ATK) in Attack Mode. Due to its effect, I can add Red Gadget to my hand. Next I activate my hidden card, Ambush Shield, to Tribute Alpha The Magnet Warrior and give its DEF to Green Gadget?s ATK! Green Gadget?s ATK rises to 3100. Green Gadget, take down Blade Knight!" Blade Knight is destroyed and Kaiba?s score drops to 2600. Silent Magician, attack Kaiba directly!" Kaiba?s LP drops to 1600. That?ll do for now, Kaiba," stated Yugi. (Hand: 2 cards)
"You won?t win this Yugi. I draw. Silent Magician?s ATK rises to 2000. I play Pot of Greed for 2 more cards. Silent Magician?s ATK rises to 2500. Next I play Ancient Rules, a Spell Card that allows me to Special Summon any Level 5 or higher Normal Monster from my hand and I happen to have a 2nd Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Arise my mighty dragon (3000 ATK) in Attack Mode. Now Blue-Eyes, take aim at Yugi?s Silent Magician! Silent Magician is destroyed and Yugi?s LP drops to 2700. You have only one puny monster left and I don?t intend on letting it stick around. Make your move, Yugi," stated Kaiba. (Hand: 0 cards)
"I will, Kaiba. I Summon Red Gadget (1300 ATK) in Attack Mode. Thanks to it, I now get Yellow Gadget from my Deck to my hand. Then, I use Polymerization to send them all to the Graveyard for Blue Gadget (3000 ATK) in Attack Mode. Then I use Blue Gadget?s special ability to power it up by Red Gadget?s ATK! Blue Gadget?s ATK rises to 4300. Blue Gadget, take out Blade Knight and end this Duel!" Blade Knight is destroyed and Kaiba?s LP drops to 0.
"Hmm, even with Crush Card Virus? effect crippling your Deck, you somehow managed to win. Impressive. I?ll have to work on an upgrade to the Duel Disk to prevent this mishap from occurring again. Let?s go, Mokuba," remarked Kaiba. Kaiba walks away. [Meanwhile...]
"Just as I wanted, they Dueled to diagnose the problem. I?m already in the perfect spot to defeat both of them using my specialized Deck that is sure to leave them feeling sick. What they don?t know is that they?ve made the problem worse for the next unsuspecting Duelists," stated Rogue. [Back with Yugi...]
"Nicely done, Yugi. You always know just what to play and when to play it, even if you?re on the ropes," commended Joey.
"Still, what?ll we do with the Duel Disks until Kaiba comes up with a fix?" asked Tea?.
"I guess we can still wear them but have to keep them de-activated," figured Yugi before de-activating his.
"I wanna face that creep that did this myself. He?s probably cowering in the shadows of some underground lair somewhere. He can?t be that tough," declared Joey.
"We all want to face him, Joey but I doubt they?re as easy to beat as you think. Besides, we don?t know if this is one person or an organization like Dartz," protested Yugi.
