Just My Fortune

Chapter 6: The Dark vs Cleaning Service

3rd PoV:

"DUEL!" They both shout in Unison.
Irene's LP:000 ----> 4000
Yami Bakura's LP:000 ----> 4000

"Victims 1st," Yami-Bakura states with a Sadistic grin. "If you so wish," she smiles. "I play the continuous spell 'Dragonmaid Welcome'." she says, inserting the spell into the middle slot of her Duel Disk. "Then I summon Kitchen Dragonmaid," she summons her to the center of the field in attack mode.
Kitchen Dragonmaid: Atk:500/Def:1700
Kitchen D.Maid: Atk:500/Def:1700 ---> Atk:600/Def:1800
I watch as the hologram of a red-haired maid with a tail and horns appears with a mixing bowl in hand. "A maid? What do plan to do with that, cook me a nice meal" he says sarcastically before cackling "Yeah I am gonna feed you something, it's called a knuckle sandwich" she hisses back "I activate the effect of my Kitchen Dragonmaid since she was summoned to the field I can add 1 'Dragonmaid' from deck to my hand, I choose Dragonmaid Tinkhec" she says adding the card to her hand "Though since Kitchen Dragonmaid's effect was activated I must discard 1 Dragonmaid monster from my hand" she sends Tinkhec to the grave "I choose that 1, I set 2 cards face down and end my turn" He draws "I draw, heh. I summon 'Headless Knight'" his monster doesn't appear, she glances around "reveal your knight" she confidently states "Be careful what you wish for, girl" he says as a dark purple mist starts appearing around them as she sees his monster start materializing as it marches forward
Headless Knight: Atk:1450/Def:1700
"Weep in terror of my monster and with such a weak monster on your side it will make easy work for my knight" she looks at and touches the mist "Is this a shadow game or just a part of your whole vibe?" She casually asks which shocks not only Bakura but also Yugi. "What? Are you telling me you would actually want to participate in a Shadow Game" he cackles maniacally "You know about Shadow Games, Irene" she turns to him and smiles "Of course I do" she turns back to face her opponent, "So I'll it take that as a no on the Shadow Game part," she says slightly disappointed "Unfortunately no, but that doesn't this isn't gonna hurt, and if makes you feel better when I win this duel, I'll give you an all expenses paid trip to the Shadow Realm," he says entering his battle phase with a cackle "Headless Knight attack her weak kitchen staff" "When you move to attack you activate the secondary effect of my maid" she confidently states "when either of  us enters our battle phase, I can send my Kitchen Dragonmiad back to my hand to summon a level 8 dragonmaid from my hand or Graveyard, I target and summon my Dragonmaid Tinkhec from the Grave in Attack position"
Dragonmaid Tinkhec: Atk:2700/Def:1700
D.Maid Tinkhec: Atk:2700 ---> 2800/Def:1700 ---> 1800
"Since I control a Dragonmaid all my  dragonmaid monsters atk/def get increased by 100" "No matter I continue my attack," he says and they watch as the Knight is swiftly blown away by Tinkhec
Yami Bakura's LP: 4000 ----> 2150
She narrows her eyes. "What was his strategy again?" She says trying to recall this certain fight in her head "I end my turn" she smiles "by ending your turn you also end your battle phase and when ending your battle phase I can activate Tinkhec's effect sending it back to my hand to resummon a Dragonmaid, Welcome back Kitchen Dragonmaid" "It's my turn, I draw, I summon chamber Dragonmaid to the field"
Chamber Dragonmaid: Atk:500/Def:1800
Chamber D.Maid: Atk: 500 ---> 700/Def: 1800 ---> 2000
"When this card is summoned I can add 1 'Dragonmaid' Spell/Trap from my Deck to my hand, I add Dragonmaid Changeover" she adds the card to her hand "I will now play Dragonmaid Changeover, I can fusion 1 Dragonmaid Monster using material on my hand or field I chose my chamber Dragonmaid and Tinkhec" she watches as the 2 monsters are taken and merged in a spiral "I summon, House Dragonmaid"
House Dragonmaid: Atk:3000/Def:2000
House D.Maid: Atk:3000 ---> 3200/Def: 2000 ---> 2200
"With that end my turn," she states, "I don't wanna end this too quickly," she states to herself. "My turn," He says "I set 1 monster & 1 card face down and end my turn" she draws "My turn, I set 1 card and battle your face down with House Dragonmaid, choosing not to activate the effect of Kitchen," she says "You destroyed my Sangen allowing me to add 1 monster to my hand," he says "I end my turn" "My turn, I activate the spell, 'Dark Door' which allows only 1 of your monsters to attack a turn then I set 1 card and end my turn" "Oh that's right, that's his strategy," she says to herself "Well I can screw him sideways if I get the right card, heart of the cards guide me, Aka anime bullshit powers, activate" she dramatically draws "My turn, I draw, I set 1 card face down and attack with my House Dragonmaid again and once again not activating Kitchen Dragonmaid, and I then end my turn" He draws and starts cackling "All the pieces are in play to seal your demise, you see I needed you to destroy some of my monsters in order to summon this, I summon Dark-" she shouts raising her hand "I activate the Quick-Play spell 'Called by the Grave' this always me to banish one of your monsters instantly, preventing the summoning of your Dark Necrofear" she watches a hand grabs and swallows Sangen into the ground, she then looks at her opponent who currently has a face of shock and rage at the preventing of his ace monster from appearing and "with how silent I can only assume he's communicating with Marik about what to do, as only one of them needs a Millennium Item to forge a mental connection" she internally states "What's wrong, it's your turn so why don't your play" she says mockingly, he looks at her and growls "You damn brat, I will get you back for this" "Let me guess, and my little dog too" she smirks he groans "I end my turn" "Why don't I end this" she says "House Dragonmaid attack and finish this duel" "NOOOO~!" He screams dramatically as my maid scratches at him.

"The winner of the 1st round of the Battle City Finals is Irene Calabrese,"

1st PoV:

The platform begins to descend and I watch as the Spirit slowly begins to walk off not saying a word "That's probably gonna be a problem in the future" I mutter to myself and then I realize all of my friends are suddenly in front of me including Mokuba. "Great Job Irene/Good Job," Mokuba & Joey say almost simultaneously "Excellent dueling," Yami says "What were those cards," Mai asks "That's my little secret" I giggle "You did Great," Tea & Serenity say "Nice Work" I hear Tristan and Duke say at the same time which leads to them calling each "Copy Cats" and proceeding to argue. I can't help but smile at all of them, and then I look over to 'Namu' and give him a quick smirk, which he notices and gives me an annoyed expression in return. "As stated in the rules your opponent's rarest card is forfeit to you, Irene Calabrese," The suit says "Eh I don't care about that, my decks are kinda type-specific, not like I can do much with random cards" I laugh and then leave the Duel area with the group while Mokuba goes back to his brother. Later that night I approach my room and I see my neighbor is non-other than 'Namu', I smile "Oh hey 'Namu' have time for a chat" he glares at me but then puts his acting face up and voice "Uh, sure", I lead him to my room, where I swiftly go to my bag that is hidden under my bed and pull the Millennium Rod out, while still under there I focus and turn off any cameras or devices in the room that could be used to monitor or record

I get up, dust myself off, and turn to face Marik with a twirl of the Rod. "Alright, Marik, how's progress on obtaining what I want?"
