Yugioh: The King's Shadow

"That maybe true, however when he and I dueled against each other, it did not change much of how he duels. If anything, I changed my deck to suit me. He merely tweeked his deck." The former Pharaoh replies.

Tokosume grinds his teeth a little but let's it be. "Then I place a card face down and end my turn." He says.

Cora draws her card, "I will play the monster Magical Exemplar(Atk:1700/Def:1400), then I'll play the Spell card Pot of Greed allowing me to draw two cards. With that my Magical Exemplar gains two spell counters and Breaker gets one, raising his attack power to 1900. I will then play the Field spell, Magical Cidital of Endymion. With this card not only can I place a spell counter one cards that can have spell counters, but should it get destroyed I can use a spell counter to keep it alive. Ontop of that should one of my cards with spell counters be destroyed I can give this field spell the counters." This gave the Cidital a spell counter, Magical Exemplar now had four.

"Now. I'm going to use Breaker's effect to use his spell counter and destroy your friends spell or trap on the field." This effectively destroyed the card which got the boys a little frustrated. Breaker's attack back to 1600. "I will place one card face down(Magician's Circle) and end my turn."

Ryo draws his card. "I will tribute Grefer to summon Caius, The Shadow Monarch! With his effect for being a tribute summon, I can take a card and banish it from my opponent's side of the field. For that I choose Breaker, the Magical Warrior." With that, Breaker shattered, causing Cora's eyes to widen. A gasp for breath as if she had the wind knocked out of her. She never felt that before, especially in Duel Monsters. She managed get her breathing to go back to normal.

"So since it was a dark type monster you lose one thousand life points!" Ryo declares. As their life Point go from 4000 to 3000, Cora start to feel a pain rack her from head to toe. She looked to Yugi then, looking concerned, almost scared. "With that I end my turn."

The Rise of the Guardian

Maltoran turned as Shinlo called her name. He helped Shinlo the best he could as the two Assasins and Orion went over to her. None of them knew what to do for her. "If her mind is being flooded into her mind, this could do a number of unknown effects that could effect her mentality. Sadly I don't have a way to do it. He looks to the assassins who shook their heads. Except Maltoran who might have an idea. "Maybe I can use my water to help ease the pain. I can't block it but help ease the flow."

Carth was still trying to comfort Ash, letting her hold him however she wished in hopes it would help. He eyes Shinlo, looking for advise."

Yugioh: The King's Shadow

"With random people? Not really. By himself, quite often." Yami answers.

Tokosume with draw his card examining the field. I summon Dark Grefer(Atk:1700/Def:1600) to the field in Attack mode will then go after your Green Gadget!" He declares. Cora wonders what Yugi may have up his sleeve to defend his monsters.

The Rise of the Guardian

Carth whined when Ash started having an episode he leans his head further into Serena to keep her upright. "hang in there. Please be okay." worried about her.

"So I somehow knew she needed help?" Kanarus asked, a bit confused how that was suppose to work out if at all.

Yugioh: The King's Shadow

Tokosume goes next. "I place one card facedown. Then place a monster facedown. Ending my turn." Placing the cars in their respective spaces.

Cora goes next drawing her card. She looks to her card with a smile. "I summon Breaker the Magical Warrior(Atk:1600/Def:1000) in Attack mode. With this, since he was normal summoned, he gets one Spell counter, gaining three-hundred attack taking up to nineteen-hundred attack. However I'm going to go ahead and use that spell counter to activate his other effect and destroy one Spell or trap on the field and I choose yours." The trap was destroyed and sent to the Graveyard. "This takes Breaker's attack back to sixteen-hundred. With that I will place a face down (Magic Cylinder) and end my turn." She declares.

Tokosume's partner Ryo draws his card. He places a card face down then summons Dark Elf(Atk:2000/Def:800) in Attack mode. Then ends his turn.

Yami folds his arms over his chest and smiles. "I think he'll do just fine."

Yugioh: The King's Shadow

Cora was shocked by what Yugi said. "Wait." This completely caught her off guard where she faltered a moment but caught back up to where Yugi hopped up on the stage and holding out a hand to her. "You can?!" She never felt such weight that came off her shoulders than now when Yugi told her that he was like her. No longer she felt embarrassment and the nervousness she had. Cora took his hand and smiled a genuine smile. Once pulled up she gave him a hug, her emotions nothing but gratitude. "Thank you," she then pulls away, a blush dusting her cheeks before walking away to get into position.

Yami smiled as he watched them and felt some relief. "Whatever I was, seems to have been solved."

"Duelists at the ready!" The coin flips once all the duelists were ready. It lands a heads, Yugi and Cora going first.

"It's Time to Duel!" The Announcer shouts with enthusiasm!

Yugioh: The King's Shadow

Marik grinned toward Odion and sat next to him. "Thank you! The new deck is perfect Odion, thanks to you and my sister!"

Cora was surprised by the sudden push on her walls. She had admit that compared to others, he was quite persistent and wanting to figure someone out. She smiles as she feels a crack in her walls. "You're not like everyone else I've tried to get to know." She seems to be thinking about before conceding. "Alright then," she leans in and whispers in his ear. "I can see Duel monster Spirits." Cora admits before leaning back, a blush on her face, a little embarrassed, nervous even.

"Next up Team Yugi and Team Tokosume!" The Announcer states, Cora getting up. "It's our turn." Giving a smile, but not a genuine one. She still felt the nervousness she had from telling Yugi something she tried to keep hidden. To be called childish, a baby, a fake, a pest. She didn't mind it, but it still hurt.

"Have I?" He looks to Yugi in hearing him and his friend was next but noticed something was amiss. "Good luck Yugi."

"Go Yugi!" Tristen and Joey cheered.

The Rise of the Guardian

"I'm sure it can. We'll figure it out." Carth reassures as he lays his head on her lap. He was getting worried about her and what this did to her. He then remembered something. "ive heard from some soldier that if something tramatizes you so much that it can stay with you no matter how much you try to forget. That something will trigger it and make the memory come back like a living nightmare. I dont know how much of this is true and how it effects someone." he says, though now thinking about it, wondering if that was what was happening maybe.

Orion shrugs. "It's a possibility since there is little I know about the creature and what it's songs can do to someone." Maltoron helped steady Shinlo using his back to have him lean against the assassin. "She's hearing voices and a battle raging." Orion explains.

The Rise of the Guardian

Orion sighs a little in frustration, his face certainly showing it bit nods while looking at her, face to face. "Damn curses. If it is a curse let's hope we can get it removed quickly. I shall tell the others. Carth, keep her by you just to be safe. Whatever you're doing seems to be helping." He then gets up and heads to the group.

Seeing Shinlo laying down, he figured was not a great sign. Once he gets there Krona moves out of the way as Orion sits down beside Shinlo and Maltoran. "What happen here?" He asks. Maltoran explains which Orion listens before nodding at the end. "Let me do another once over to check on you. Also. Just so you know Ash has theorized that she maybe under a curse. She is displaying symptoms not only of Veritgo but sounds she cannot explain."

Carth eyes Ash before guiding his head up a little. "Here. If it helps, come sit with me and I can lay my head on your lap." He suggests, hoping his breathing was helping Ash to a degree.

Yugioh: The King's Shadow

Cora tilted her head, unsure if she should say anything. Through she had been on the receiving end of the verbal abuse, it felt like nothing she couldn't handle. She though was a little more worried about telling her new friends her little secret. Especially when it lead being alone all over. "No. Not that I can think of. But I'll let you know when it comes to me." She replies.

"Not always. You've always proved that." Yami mentions with a bit of a mischievous tone.

Marik looks over toward his sister as she comes back, grinning amd excited.

"Team Ishizu Wins this match!" The Announcer calls out as the crows had cheered for them. Marik makes his way back with Ishizu with a smile on his face.
