Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's: Power of the Dragon

VIII

Vlad's car drove down the street. "I think that went rather well," Vlad said.

"I don't know. They didn't seem convinced to me," Kari said. 

"In time, they will see that I am right," Vlad said. 

"What about Yuri? Are you sure he's got what it takes?" Kari asked. 

"Just because Yuri doesn't have an ouroboros yet doesn't mean he doesn't have the potential of greatness," Vlad said. "You remember how it was with you. Only in your moment of greatest weakness did your ouroboros reveal itself." 

"Yeah, I remember," Kari said. Suddenly, the car jerked to the side, throwing Vlad and Kari onto the floor. "Are you alright?" Kari asked, helping Vlad up.

"Yes. A little shaken, but I'm okay," Vlad said. "Do you know what happened?" Kari looked out the window and saw a man in a dark robe standing in the middle of the street. There was a duel disk on his arm. 

"I know your in there Dragon Girl," the man shouted. "Get out here and face me!" Kari got out of the car and faced the robed man.

"Who are you?" Kari demanded. The man activated his duel disk and threw his hood back. 

"I'm hurt you forgot who I am, especially after our last duel," the man said, removing his hood. Kari grimaced and activated her duel disk. The card blade flipped around to it's activated position, and she shoved her deck in the deck well. 

"You looked better on your knees after your loss, Looker," Kari said. 

"As I recall Dragon Girl, it was a draw," Looker said, activating his duel disk and drawing his hand. Kari drew a hand for herself and glanced at her cards. 

"Seeing as you went first last time, I'll take the first turn," Looker said, drawing his card. "I summon The Dark One in attack mode," Looker said, He placed the card down and a figure clad in a black robe and mask appeared on the field. "I'll lay this card facedown and end my turn."

"Finally," Kari said, drawing her card. "I'll start by activating the field spell Future Knight Palace," Kari said. She placed her card in the field spell slot and a futuristic palace formed around them, placing them in a courtyard. "Now all my monsters gain an extra one thousand attack and defense points. Next I summon Future Knight of Black in attack mode." A woman in black leather, a cape, and a face concealing helmet appeared on Kari's field. The monsters attack points increased from 1800 to 2800. "Now, my knight's ability activates, which lets me add another Future Knight card to my hand, so I'll take Future Knight of Red. Now Future Knight of Black, attack The Dark One!" 

Kari's monster activated a laser sword and charged at Lookers monster. She slashed at it, destroying it. "Now my monsters ability activates. When The Dark One is the only monster on my field when it's destroyed, I take half the damage, and then draw a card," Looker said. He pulled his card off his deck, and his lifepoints decreased to 3600. 

"Then I'll lay a card facedown and end my turn," Kari said. Looker smirked and drew his card. 

"First, I summon Sand Bat in attack mode," Looker said. His monster, a giant bat made of black sand appeared on the field. "Next, I activate the spell card God of a Thousand Forms. Now I can summon two monsters each turn, so now I summon Howler in the Dark, in attack mode." A giant black hound, its fangs dripping, appeared on the field. "Next, I activate a spell card called The Bat God of L'gy'hx. This card adds 1,000 attack points to my attacking monster.

"Now, I'll attack first with Sand Bat, to destroy your knight!" Lookers monster opened its wings and two sand funnels shot across the field and destroyed Future Knight Black. Kari's life points decreased from 4000 to 3800. "Now, Howler in the Dark, attack her directly!" Lookers second monster let out a bone chilling howl, knocking Kari back lowering her life points to 1300. "I'll set a facedown card and end your punishment for now."
