Giving her hand a quick shake after the, well, handshake, Shana prepared for the duel, her deck shuffled and placed inside her duel disk. There was just about enough space for them to play, thankfully enough, and any fears of dueling on the bleachers breaking a rule was quickly thrown out the window by her desire to duel. Charlotte was first, and... Shana was confused by her opponent's deck. It didn't seem to fit the theme of that princess at all. And she was facing down a dragon with three-thousand attatck right of the bat?! Add onto the two cards in the backrow... Shana was grinning widely, "Heh, I draw!" Her hand... wasn't the best, unfortunately. Nothing could directly combat the giant dragon of light. All she could really hope to do right now was set up and survive. "I'll start with a continuous spell! Protection From The Judgment Flame!" As a transparent blue flame erupted around Shana, she cheerfully explained, "This'll half the effect damage I take from my flames of judgment! Gotta take all the precautions available when you play with fire~!" She then chose the only monster she could actually summon, placing it on her field, "next, since you have monsters and I don't, I can Special Summon Judgment Flame Volat from my hand!" Before Shana appeared a strange creature that resembled a small bomb. With eyes. The stats '50/50' flashed above the violently-shaking creature's head briefly. Shana took a moment to decide what would be the better move to make for now, and settled upon it, selecting another spell card. "I activate Summoning Of The Judgment Flame!" Shana cried out, "This'll let me add a Judgment Flame from my deck to my hand!" To her dismay, however, Charlotte was prepared. "Nope, not happening: I activate Tachyon Transmogrification. Sorry 'bout that." With that statement, her trap had been blown straight back into her deck and shuffled. That... was quite a devastating strike. Oh well! "Fine, then! Shana declared, selecting a monster card in her hand, "I'll just tribute Volat in order to summon Judgment Flame Waarm!" As a tall, thin figure made entirely of flame appeared, its stats displaying '2300/1700', the monster suddenly seemed to explode. Holographic fire washed over the entire field as Shana calmly explained, "Waarm's effect hits us both for a thousand points of damage when tribute summoned, then for each Judgment Flame in my graveyard, you lose another one hundred!" Charlotte lost 1100 Life Points from the summon, while Shana only lost 500 from her spell card's protection. Not that it mattered too much, as she was going to take a lot more damage next turn. But if she could get a monster she could use... Well, for now... "Okay! Waarm, destroy that face-down monster!" complying, the burning figure lunged for the set card. Regardless of the consequences, Shana's turn would have to end there. -------------------- LP: 7500 Monsters: Judgment Flame Waarm S/T: Protection From The Judgment Flame Hand: 2
