Yu☆Gi☆Oh!: Soul Mirror

"Of course a pathetic weakling mounts a pathetic defense, Your only delaying the inevitable with such displays of cowardice like that" The evil-aura'd man would say in his distorted tone, He and his monster both letting out a boisterous laugh at the pathetic display of defence that Kai had mounted. As he would draw his card for turn. "I'll draw." He'd say look at it a evil grin appearing on his face. "Theres no way you can win now brat." He'd say as he'd set a monster. The face-down card appearing on his side of the board. Kei had no chance to win, and his opponents cruel happiness betrayed that they indeed thought that.

"Alright Brat, prepare to lose and accept that your nothing but a pathetic weakling! Red Ogre, Destroy that Silent Sword Kid!" He'd say as Red Ogre would wind up its bat and without mercy it would stampede over the battlefield towards the Silent Swordsmen. It would rise up its club once more. The Silent Swordsmen's entire body would be stuck in the shadow of the sheer size of the club. As it would smash it down with incredible force.

"If you have weaklings for friends, then your just a weakling yourself. I'll show you what real power is. Draw" The big lug would say as he pulled the card from the top of his deck and added it to his hand. A cruel sneer appearing on his lips. "I'll show you just how strong I am, when i crush you!"

"I activate the spell card, Book of Life" The brute owuld say as the spellcard would pull itself up on his side of the field. Revealing the book emblazoned upon it. It would create a visage of Kei's Blade Knight. As it opened.

"WIth this book, I can banish one monster from your grave. To summon back a zombie from my own!" He'd say as the book woudl slam shut on the visage of the Blade Knight, before bursting into his Regenerating Mummy.

REgenerating Mummy ATK 1800

"But I am tired of playing with these weak cards. Let me show you real power. I tribute both weaklings to summon Red Ogre!" He'd declare, a dark shadowry aura enveloping his body, as the card would be placed upon the duel disk. The large monster would appear from somewhere, directly behind the two zombie monsters, as it would thrown them into its jutted maw. "This is what strength is. To devour all weaklings.. Red Ogre will crush you" He'd say as his voice was distorted by something dark and twisted.

Red Ogre ATK 2800

The similar shadow-aura was around his monster. "Now, I discard this useless monster" He'd say revealing a weak Skull Dog Marron. Quite literally throwing it up to the large red ogre. "To activate the effect of the my Red Ogre! Intimidating Roar!"

He'd say as the Red Ogre would let out an inhuman bellowing roar right at the spell-strider, causing it to appear for a moment paralysed with fear, before it was knocked away by the sheer windforce of such a powerful and intimidating roar. "This effect returns a monster you control to your hand. Your now wide open weakling. Prepare to be crushed."

The brute would say as he would enter the battle phase. "Be pounded and crushed and minced and destroyed! Red Ogre! Brutal Club!" He'd declare as the giant monster would lumber forth, about to smash its huge club right over the head of Kei threatening to leave him as paste.

Yu☆Gi☆Oh!: Soul Mirror

"Alright Brat, I draw" the brutish man would say as he would pull the card from his deck to his hand, placing it in his hand he would scan the cards he currently had satisfied with a rather stupid grin on his face he would laugh. "Your monsters are as weak as you are." He would say as he would begin.

"I activate the effect of my Call of the Mummy Spell card. To summon a weakling zombie from my hand." He'd say placing the card on his duel disk. "Tristian, Knight of the Underworld." He'd bark as the knight would emerge forth from the coffin, bursting out in a cloud of bandages, taking its position on his side of the field.

'Tristian, Knight of the Underworld' 1800 ATK

"Mext, I'll show you how to really make Weaklings work together, Go Regenerating Mummy." He would say as the monster would assemble itself on his side of the field, a disgusting monster stuck in the state of reassembly, it was enough to make a person puke just staring at it.

'Regenerating Mummy' 1800 ATK

"Battle, Prepare for more pain brat! Because while I have a zombie on my field, Tristian gains 300 attack points, more then enough to destroy your measly monsters." He'd say as he'd point towards Kei

Tristian ATK 1800 -> 2100 ATK

"Tristian! Destroy that Blade Knight" He would say as the zombie-warrior would crash forward, impaling the monster on its weapon with a wailing cry of the underworld. The Knight would be cut down, and as its body exploded Kei's body would be inflicted with yet more pain.

Kei 2300 > 2200 LP

"I won't give you any mercy! Go Regenerating Mummy, destroy his last monster!" He'd say as the corpse amalgam would saunter over and smash its fist straight through Kei's monster.

Kei 2200 > 2000 LP

"Learned your lesson yet Brat?" The duelist would say as he would end his turn.

Yu☆Gi☆Oh!: Soul Mirror

The Ogrish brute of a man would not stand down even if Kei would be so casual about it. He would gnash his teeth together in a frustrated manner looking at this 'brat' being so casual about it, as if he was treating him as a joke, as a nobody. This angered him further. "Draw!" He'd growl ripping the card from the top of his deck adding it to his hand which was gripped so tightly Kei could see the veins on the brutish mans fingers straining while gripping them.

"I activate Call of the Mummy" He'd say placing the spell card into his duel disk. On his field the card would rise. "This card will be your doom." he'd say as he'd place a card onto his duel disk. "By the effect of Call of the Mummy if no monsters are on my field, I can special summon a weakling zombie from my hand." He'd say as his monster would burst forth from the spell card. "I summon, Goblin Zombie!"

The sword wielding corpse would slash forth taking its place on its masters field in attack mode. The Ogrish brute of a man was no coward that would use a defence position monster after-all.

Goblin Zombie 1100 ATK

"That's not all though brat, I'll summon one of my own kin, Abaki, make mincemeat of this brat" He'd say placing a second monster onto his field. A red ogre juvenile creature with a toothy maw and a club would take the side of its master's field swinging its club around.

[b]Abaki[b/] 1700 ATK

"Now, We clash, Abaki! Smash his monster to smitheereens" The brute would say not once considering he was pummeling a kid. Just that he was a big tough idiot. The Monster would rush over to the Blade Knight with alarming speed, bringing its club up and slamming it down across the monsters body, shattering it into refracting particles of light. Kei would feel something was amiss as he felt a pain in his fingers, like little tingles of pain. He wouldn't have much time to think about it though before he saw another monster hurtling towards him with its sword raised.

Kei's LP: 4000 -> 3900

"Goblin Zombie, Direct attack!" The brute would gnash through his teeth as the monster would bring down its sword across Kei's body depleting his life points further. This time however he would actually feel intense pain as if he was hit by a real sword, though no wound was carved onto his body. The pain was very much real, and it would hurt quite badly. But the Ogre didn't care, The boy was just a weakling nobody.

Kei's LP 3900 -> 2800

"Turn end, don't you dare fall unconscious from that kid."

Yu☆Gi☆Oh!: Soul Mirror

The guy that had been minding his own business walking in circles in his 'turf' would not be best pleased by a brat knocking into him again. Though he didn't even flinch or stagger standing stalwart as he looked down at Kei, He didn't say much until he was directly addressed at which point a low annoyed growl could be heard from the mans throat. "Vending machine is part of my territory, if your just going to keep walking about, what you expect? People come and go from my territory in happiness from taking from my vending machine. Are you insulting my territory? Are you insulting me?" The man would say reaching a foregone conclusion without any of Kei's Input.

"I don't like people that insult me. I don't like you." He'd say as he would reach behind himself to pull out a standard duel disk. "You, no, look all that tough enough. I'll beat you up good and proper, smack your head and show you how to get back in line." The man was certainly speaking rather aggressively. Did he not even consider Kei's age into account? He sounded perfectly fine with beating on a kid without remorse.

"We Duel now, I beat you, You restock Vending Machine." He said as not letting Kei get passed until they duelled. That much was for certain. Though did he really have to pick his nose like some sort of troll or ogre while waiting for Kei's response?

Yu☆Gi☆Oh!: Soul Mirror

Aiya would sigh as Kei would declare that he'd win again. "I look forward to it Kei, The Day you finally beat me, is the day I'll buy you some nice Onigiri." She would say as they'd both turn their attention to the TV, Kei scrambling over while Aiya would walk up behind him to try to get a see at the dragon duelists side of the field. She'd look at Shinrei, not once did the reigning champion seem to be losing hope. Yep. This duel was certainly not over...

But that new monster? That was a sight to see alright. 3500 attack points and it could destroy the field?! That made her eyes widen in surprise. Such a powerful effect on a monster she had never seen before. Especially not by the reigning champion. She'd have to never forget that a duelist was never truely a one-and-done thing, and they could change and adapt on the fly. So she should always be ready to mix up her own strategies.

Still Kei would rush out to get their drinks and annoying she'd get a call on her phone, pulling it out, with the little Blue-eyes keychain jingling as she did so. She'd receive the notification that one of her myriad of bosses wanted her in early for work. Great, and they wanted her now She could delay but that would ruin her perfect portrayed work ethic of a girl that was always able to meet strict deadlines.

Scribbling a note on a pad of paper she slipped it over to the Store-owner telling them to pass it over to Kei. It was another apology note that she had to disappear before her friend could say goodbye., she had already left to get off to work before she could catch what the store clerk would try to say in response. Moving with a brisk jog to get to her workplace.

What was there not to believe? Sure the announcer was supposed to hype up the duel but Shinrei hadn't really been challenged in the last 2 years since he became champion. Logically then he had the duel in the bag already. Only a fool would think that Shinrei wasn't going to win. Though Aiya wouldn't call herself a fan of 'Shinrei' in her own mind she couldn't fathom him losing to a complete nobody like that guy on the screen.

Still she would be biting her fingernails in trepidation. What if he did that wouldn't be good at all. Cyber End Dragon was so powerful. It couldn't just lose right? Hopefully Shinrei wouldn't just bite the bullet this way. That wouldn't be good at all. She wanted to see him lose to someone important or coo-.

Her train of thought broke when she heard her best? friend speak up. Was Kei her best friend? She'd never admit it personally, She also didn't have time to find other friends what with the long list of odd-jobs she worked. From the battle-maid cafe to the janitorial duties. Working part time to earn money to help renovate the Dragon King Dojo. It certainly left her without much time except to spend it hanging out with Kei.

Of course at the same time though she wouldn't say herself that they were friends, She wasn't some jerk that just existed in his orbit. No. She was Aiya Tenshi. Anyone that she considered important enough to keep close of course deserved to be treated with the utmost respect and closeness.

"You better start by beating me then Kei. The road to being a champion is a long one after all but your not starting that road today" She would say in response to him as he turned his monster to attack position. Seeing him equip his monster and ending his turn. She'd smile softly. "Check that loss record to 100." She'd say as she drew for turn. "I'll activate my spell card. 'A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon'" She'd say as it hit the table. "By returning my Ernus to my hand I can destroy all spell and trap cards you control!"

Watching him scoop his backrow up she'd feel the corner of her lips curl into a smile. She didn't like beating him. But simple days like this duelling with the people you care about? It was all a girl could wish for. "I'll active the fusion spell, Dragonmaid Changeover, The cost for Fusion is one Dragonmaid monster and one level 5 or higher dragon monster." She'd say as she'd reveal the three cards in hand. Her Fusion Spell, Ernus and Laundry. Placing them all in her graveyard she'd place her monster onto the table. "Dragonmaid Sheou, Battle! She'll attack your Mystic Swordsmen LV4." Aiya would say tapping her card gently before she lent over to tap Kei's.

And that was game. Still though she wasn't one to rub in her victories unless she really disliked a person hoooowever she wasn't above a bit of light teasing. "Congrats on your 100th loss. You can redeem your free complimentary Can of Soda from the vending machine outside later." She'd say with a soft smile.
