A Change of Heart

Chapter 7

Well, since I've decided to base my non-canon duels off of the Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's World Championship 2010-2011 games, it's a little difficult to work out a duel that wouldn't be short and boring, but I'm going to try giving this duel a shot just to see if it'll work out.

"Alrighty, girl." The man grinned, pressing a button on the panel and I ducked down as flames shot out of the two turrets. "You better be prepared, because we're getting started." The man then drew a card.

"I then set a monster face-down, and place down two cards." The man then smirked, "Your turn." He said, and I gasped as I felt a sharp, stinging pain from where the leg cuffs were. "Oh, and please... Take all the time you need." He laughed, and I bit my lip. I looked down to where the leg cuffs were, seeing blood staining my leggings and I raised my head to meet his gaze.

"You're sick!" I shouted, "You're worse than Panik!" The man simply let out a bone-chilling laugh, pressing a button on the panel and I nearly collapsed as the pain strengthened tenfold. Now I knew why he was telling me to take my time. He enjoyed whatever type of pain he could possibly inflict on me if I wasted even a minute to think something over.

"If I were you," The man gave me a sadistic grin, "I'd get to dueling." I narrowed my eyes before I looked down at my hand, having taken a card from my deck.

I looked down at my cards now, "I set a monster face-down..." I had set Pyramid Turtle in face-down, defense position. I then set down Dust Tornado and Magic Jammer. I winced as a warning shock went through the cuffs. "I end my turn." I spoke through gritted teeth.

The Eliminator smirked, "I activate my trap, Embodiment of Apophis." I watch as a snake-like creature materialized and my eyes went a little wide. "Now, I'll summon Effect Veiler."

[Embodiment of Apophis 1600 ATK/ 1800 DEF]

[Effect Veiler 0 ATK/ 0 DEF]

"Now, attack Embodiment of Apophis!" The man shouted, thrusting his arm in my direction before I flipped up my card, "I activate my trap, Dust Tornado!" The man growled when his trap was destroyed, and I set down my Creature Swap as he ended his turn. 

I drew my next card, frowning at the draw. This creature wasn't one that I needed as of right now and I gave the card a look of disappointment, tearing my gaze away from my cards to give a sharp glare towards the man, who was enjoying my misery. "Aw, what's the matter, kid? Didn't get the card you wanted?" He mocked me and I bit my lip.

I then narrowed my eyes, "I summon Regenerating Mummy to the field.." I trailed off, letting out a hiss and jolted slightly as another painful shock ran through my body. "I-I'll then flip-summon my Pyramid Turtle."

(Regenerating Mummy 1800 ATK/ 0 DEF]

The man smirked, "I activate Smashing Ground, which will destroy your Pyramid Turtle and not activate its effect." I grit my teeth as my Pyramid Turtle vanished from the field and sent my Regenerating Mummy to attack his face-down card. "Now, I'll activate my Tiki Soul trap card." He laughed at the irritated, pain-filled face as I glared at him. I then sent my Regenerating Mummy to attack his Effect Veiler, which brought his life points down to 200.

"I end my turn." I said, a smirk now on my face as he gave me a cold glare. He then drew a card and set two cards on the field before ending his turn. I then drew a card, and summoned Master Kyonshee to the field before the man smirked, "I activate Just Desserts!"
