Future Card Buddyfight: Buddy Invasion!

Chapter 46

Henry took the first move. "Charge and draw. I pay 1 gauge to call Knights of the Round Table King Arthur and have him attack!" King Arthur slashed through Blair. "Now I end." "Draw, charge and draw. Let's start things off with a double cast! I cast Key of Solomon First and Second Volume! So not only I can charge my gauge, but I gain a life and draw. Next I pay a gauge to set Twilight Zone! Then to my left and center positions, come on out Twilight Kid Alpha and Beta! Now I will use Alpha's effect. Since Beta is on my field, I rest Alpha to deal 1 damage to you! Due to my spell's effect, I charge my gauge. Then I equip Gunrod Bernstein and cast Trans-flame!" A small fireball hit Henry but it didn't affect him. "I will rest my weapon to deal another point of damage! Then Beta will attack!" "I cast Holy Grail!" "I will end there." Score: Henry-7, Blair-9.

"So you're using a revised version of Shadow World." He made a slight laugh. "It seems like you still are with the Shadows." "Like you're one to talk." She said with slight annoyance. "Why are you working with him?" "Why you ask? I already told you didn't I?" He began his turn with a draw, charge and draw. "I wanted to get stronger. So much stronger that no one can beat me anymore." "But Henry-" "Shut it!" She flinched. "I retire Arthur to buddycall to the left, Valkyrie Assault Cara!" "That's the missing Guardian." Hallie said when Cara appeared on the field. "So that boy is a Guardian Wielder too." Luke was carefully watching Henry. "Not only that, he was also Blair's best friend." Tai added. "I see why you wanted her to fight him." Masayo said. "Hope she can keep it together."

"I will use Cara's effect to destroy Alpha! Next I equip Immortal Sword Durandal and call Knights of the Round Table, Gawain. Gawain will attack the fighter!" "This is the strength of the Knights!" "Next will be Cara and I!" Blair was slashed on both sides. "Gah!" "I end." "My turn. Draw, charge and draw. I will pay 2 gauge and retire Beta. Dark Witch, come forth and lay waste to this land and those who rebel! I call to the center, Witch of Discord, Hearty the Chaotic!" When the witch appeared, Henry just shook his head. "Changing Shadow World monsters is one thing, but use the Chaotic? I guess you're still fight for the Shadows." "Yes and no." "What do you mean 'yes and no'?" "What I mean is that just because you have the shadows within you, doesn't mean that you're a bad person." Henry shook his head. "Now you're just confused." "If you don't get it, then I have to show you!" She exclaimed. "Go get them Big Sis!" Hallie cheered. Blair nodded. "Now I cast Key of Solomon Second Volume! Then I pay 3 gauge discard my hand to use Hearty's effect and copy Cara!" Hearty changed into a shadow clone of Cara. "Typical." Henry mumbled. "Now I use Cara's effect to destroy Gawain! Now Cara will attack the fighter!" "Shadow Wing Assault!" "Now my turn. Aim, fire!" The beam went through him. "Now I end." Score: Henry-5, Blair-5.

"The score is tied." Luke said. "May not seem much but he's strong." Tai nodded. "He was chosen for a reason." On the field, Henry was thinking. "She has gotten stronger I give her that. But I can't afford to lose! And-" Standing before him was Blair when she was a child. He rubbed his eyes then looked again. She was back to normal. "I will never forgive her..... Draw, charge and draw! I call Gawain once again and have him attack you directly! Then I will attack you!" She didn't move when the sword went through her. "I will save you Henry." She said. His image of her changed again. He quickly jumped away. "Cara! Go finish her off!" "Cast! Twilight's Barrier! Not only the attack is nulified, but you lose a point of damage!" She declared. "Nice one!" Masayo said. "Tch. No matter. Final Phase!" Henry declared. "Here it comes." Tai and Luke said. "I pay 3 gauge and 2 life." When a giant monster with a blade appeared on the field, the shadow clone Cara was destroyed. "Great Spell Finisher, Colossal Flame Sword Laevateinn! Any last words?" He said menacingly but Blair wasn't scared. "Henry, I'm here to help you." She then offered her hand. "As a friend." He looked at her. Looking at it only made him angry. "If you were my friend, then how come you didn't win back, huh?" She was quiet. "Huh? I can't hear you!" She took a deep breath. "The reason I didn't win is because I was weak. That's why I became stronger and stronger. So that I can protect the ones I hold dear in my heart." She said calmly. "But you killed people, instead of protecting them." He shouted. Blair had a small laugh. "Yeah I know. It's ironic really. I know it was a sin, but I plan to protect those who I can help! Rosena and Kurumi.....they still live within us, so I can't let them down!" Henry sighed. "Looks like you never learn. Now BEGONE!" The blade came down on Blair and then smoke covered then field. "Sis!" Hallie was about to go to see if she was alright but Luke stopped her. "Let me go, let me go!" "Calm down Hallie. You should know you sister won't go down like that." She calm down a bit. "Yeah...I guess..." Henry walked away. "To think, you nearly convinced me that you can helped." But then a voice cried, "I'm not done yet!" "Is that...." Henry turned around and the smoke cleared to reveal a barrier with Blair in spirit mode and 2 spirits. "Big Sis!" Hallie cheered. "See? And it looked like she got some help too." Luke pointed to the spirits. "Is that....Rosena and Kurumi?" Masayo asked. They shocked. "But how?" "This happened at the Grand Prix." Tai said. "She somehow managed to summon me and awaken a new power." "Maybe something will happen." Hallie said. Henry was still in shock. "But how?! You should have lost!" The barrier disappeared and Blair dusted herself off. "I activated Twilight's Barrier second effect. Since my life point hit 0, I removed the card from play and gain 2 life." He couldn't believe this. "I...I end my turn."

"Will use guys help?" Blair asked Rosena and Kurumi. They nodded. "Alright! Then-" "Draw! Charge and draw!" They said together. "I pay 1 life ti cast Merlin's Lesson: Hand Recovery! I can draw for every Wizard I have in my drop zone! Since I have 4, I draw 4 cards!" She declared. "She managed to gain a hand with one card!" Masayo exclaimed. "She's just getting started." Tai said. "Next I will use Twilight's Enigma! I can charge my gauge for every card with Twilight in the name! So I will charge 2!" She held a card in the air. "Light and dark, hope and despair, control and chaos."  "Two opposite sides combined to create a new way forward!"  "Now come forth and show them the true power of Twilight! I call to the center, Great Twilight Guardian, Hearty the Eclipse!" Henry didn't react. "Now I pay 1 gauge to put Hearty the Devastator and Hearty the Chaotic into the soul!" "And since she has the Chaotic and Eclipse in the soul, she can deal 3 damage!" Kurumi said. "Shining Nova!" Henry braced for the attack, but it was just light particles around him. "It's....warm..." "Since she dealt damage, I can charge my gauge." "Now Hearty, attack the fighter!" Rosena said. "Planetary Eclipse!" "Cast! Holy Grail!" "Tch! So close. I have to end." Blair said. "Not yet!" Rosena said. "What?" "We still have a way." Rosena and Kurumi touched one of Blair's cards and it changed into a different one. "This is..." "This is our forgiveness." Kurumi said. "We knew that you wouldn't hurt us, so that's why we were willing to help." Blair started to tear up. "Thank you." "Don't mention. Now let's finish this game!" Rosena said. Blair wiped her eyes. "Right!" They hold up the newly made card in the air. "Final Phase! We pay 2 gauge."

Hallie got excited. "I think she got a new Impact!" "Maybe." Tai said. Then they were surprised. "Impact Call!" "An Impact Call?" Henry said. "Now Hearty becomes a size 3 monster!" Hearty changed into her regular outfit but the silver lining on her clothes and staff change to red. "Hearty, 'ABSC: Annihilate Buster Staff Custom'!" "She got a brand new power!" Hallie said. "I guess Tai isn't the only one who can make miracles happen." Tai grinned. "Now I pay 4 gauge and discard a Wizard from my hand." Blair said. "Not only she can attack you-" Kurumi started. "She can also destroy your monsters and deal 3 damage!" Rosena finished. "She can do all of that?!" Henry was caught off guard. "Now ready!" Rosena put her hand in the air. Hearty pointed her Gunrod at Henry and Cara. "Aim!" Kurumi put her hand in the air. A red magic circle appeared in front of the Gunrod and around Henry and Cara. Blair put her hand in the air too. "This is our power Henry! Light and Darkness can work together!" The girls threw their hands down. "FIRE!!!" Multiple beams were fired, destroying Cara and ending the game. "I'm glad you are stronger now...." Henry thought before the beams hit. Final Score: Henry-0, Blair-2.
