Jayr POV - Challenge Space - ???
I stand a few dozeers away from the Champion of Gravity, Nikita who looks back at me with a fident smile on her face as she ents, "You finally got out! I was getting tired of waiting. I almost started to worry."
I simply smile at her banter and reply, "Instead of w about me, you should worry about yourself. Are you sure that your decks are truly fine if you took so little to build them?"
She shakes her head and with a smile she answers, "It's isn't a problem most of the cards that appeared on my list were those I was quite familiar with, so I didn't have to dally too much."
Then she picks up a deck from one of the holsters attached to her belt and is it into her Duel Disk as she says, "Let's stop with this useless bad forth." she then asks, "Let's start. Head or Tail?"
I also take out the chosen deck for the first duel of the matd i it into the Duel Disk, at the same time, I calmly reply, "Tail."
As soon as I ahat, a appears between us in mid-air as it quickly spins ihe is thrown high into the air by an invisible force, and after a few seds, it falls on the ground, and before I could check a hologram appears between us showing the zoomed-in image of the as it ys on the ground showing its "tail" side.
Seeing that, a smile forms on my face, and I decre, "It seems that luck is on my side. I'll go first." then at the same time as if we decided beforehand, we both yell at the same time, ""It's time to duel!"" while thinking, 'Such chills... even if this is a very important moment, I 't help but enjoy this.'
Jayr - 8000 LP
Nikita - 8000 LP
I quickly draw five cards saying, "I draw." look at them while keeping a poker face as much as possible while thinking, 'It isn't a bad hand. It isn't the best one, but at least I do something with this.' then I start my turn by pying a spell card onto the hard light field that came out of my Duel Disk and decre, "I py the spell card Terraf, which allows me to add a Field Spell card from my deck to the han-"
But before I could finish, Nikita interrupted me and she decred, "Wait! I activate the effect of Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring! By discarding this card to the graveyard, I e the effect of Terraf."

[colpse]Seeing that, I click my tongue and mutter, "Of course, she has that fug hand trap in her hand... luckily I already expected something like this."
I then pick up another spell card from my hand and py it, "I activate the spell card Dragon Shrine, which makes me send 1 Dragon monster from my Deck to the graveyard, then, if that monster in my graveyard is a Dragon Normal Monster, I send 1 more Dragon monster from my Deck to the graveyard. I chose the monster Dragon Spirit of White, and sihis card has the effect of being treated as a Normal Monster while in the hand raveyard, I send another monster. I choose to send Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand."
I don't stop and tihout a pause, "Then I summon Knight of Creation in attack position"
At the same time, a knight with golden armor, long auburn hair, and a longsword in its hands appears on the field, as it faikita ready to attack her at my and.
Dragon Knight of Creation - ATK 1800 / DEF 600

[colpse]After admiring the life-size mohat appeared in front of me for a few seds, with a grin I tinue, "Now I activate Dragon Knight of Creation's effects, which let me send 1 card from my hand to the graveyard, then target 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon monster in my graveyard; send this card to the grave, and if I do, Special Summon that monster."
And after following the instrus which leaves me with only one card in my hand, I smile and say. "And I choose to special summon Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand in attack position!"
As soon as I said that, Dragon Knight of Creation started to shine in a bright golden light, and soon its size and shape started to ge until it took the familiar form of a golden majestic dragon, the same form I took inspiration for my Dragon Form, Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand, which lets out a mighty roar as soon as it appears on the field.
Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand - ATK 2800 / DEF 2800

[colpse]Looking at the summoned monster I 't help but think, 'Yup, one of my favorite dragons in the game... it is just a shame that it doesn't have as much support as other more notable dragons.'
I then tinue my turn, "Now I activate the spell card Return of the Dragon Lords. It effect lets me target 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon monster in my GY and special summon it, and I choose Dragon Spirit of White in attack position."
Again another dragon is summoned o Felgrand, this one is a pure white dragon very simir to the iic Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

[colpse]Then I expin, "Now that I have two level 8 monsters on the field, I overy them to XYZ Summon a monster from my Extra Deck. I summon Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Gaxy in defense position."
Now a futuristic-looking dragon appears on the field, which strangely almost looks like the unholy unioween a Zeong and a Qubeley from the Gundam Franchise, and, of course, a dragon.
Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Gaxy - ATK 3000 / DEF 2500

[colpse]After doing all that, I decre, "And with this, I end my turn." while thinking, 'Damn, I didn't do a long ass b but why it does feel like it took ay to do just those few moves?'
Meanwhile, Nikita oher side smiles and ents, "Not bad... not bad at all." then she asks curious, "But how in the hell did you get so many dragon cards? Are you like Kaiba whose girlfriend is basically a reination of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon?"
Hearing that, I smile and reply, "Actually... yes one of my girlfriends is actually a Dragon Princess."
Nikita then fakes a gag and says, "Urg... one of my girlfriends, huh? To think that I would faeone of the harem sect! That is another reason I 't lose, fuck the harem!" making me yell, "Hey! It isn't a harem! At most is sidered polygamy!" but she ignores me and says, "I draw!"
Then without hesitation, she decres, "First I summon Hajun, the Winged Mayakashi in attack position and activate its effect, which allows me to special summon 1 "Mayakashi" monster from my Deck, and I special summon Dakki, the Graceful Mayakashi in defense position."
As she says that, two monsters appear on the field in front of her, one is a tengu-like priest, the other is a shrine maiden with long light violet hair tied in a ponytail.

[colpse]Seeing those two monsters, I instantly realize what I expect from her deck, 'Damn it! That deck is a bad matine. I have to stop her from starting that damned bo at all costs!'
At the same time, Nikita tinues, "Then I send both Hajun and Dakki to the GY to link summon the LINK-2 monster Yuki-Onna, the Ice Mayakashi."
Soon, a cute pale white-haired young girl appears on the field and starts to slowly float around.

[colpse]As expected that meurns, but of course, Nikita doesn't end it here and tinues, "Now I send Yuki-Onna and Dakki to the GY to link summon the LINK-3 monster Yuki-Onna, the Icicle Mayakashi."
Under Nikita's and, Dakki fuses with Yuki-Onna making her shine in a bright white light like a Pokemon evolution, and soon an older Yuki-Onna appears in her pce, if before, she was a cute young girl, now she looks like a beautiful teen.

I chose Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Gaxy. And since I summoned Yuki-Onna from the Extra Deck, Dakki activates her effece more, making me special summon her from the GY once again in defense position."

[colpse]Seeing that, I frow as the situation is clearly getting worse, meanwhile, Nikita tinues with her bo, "Once again I send Yuki-Onna and Dakki to the GY to link summon the LINK-4 monster Yuki-Onna, the Absolute Zero Mayakashi."
Like before, Dakki fuses with Yuki-Onna making her shine in a bright white light, and soon an even older Yuki-Onna appears, and now she looks like a geous young woman.

[colpse]With her appearanikita smiles widely and says, "And again I activate Dakki's effect special summoning her in attack position.

I let out a sigh already expeg this situation, at the same time, Nikita tinues "Now, I activate Yuki-Musume, the Ice Mayakashi's effect that says: If you trol a "Mayakashi" card, other than "Yuki-Musume, the Ice Mayakashi" while this card is in your hand Y: You Special Summon this card, then send 1 Zombie monster from your Deck to the GY. So I special summon it in defense position and send Soul-Abs Boower to the GY."
A small ghostly child with bck hair and a blue kimono appears on the field beside Dakki, making me shiver not from the cold or fear, but because one of the most annoyiures of this archetype is about to be unleashed.
Yuki-Musume, the Ice Mayakashi - ATK 0 / DEF 1900

[colpse]Nikita then takes a deep breath and starts the endless synmoning, "I send both Dakki and Yuki-Musume to the GY to Synmon uruma, the Wheeled Mayakashi in defense position, and activate Dakki's effect again.

Just as I'm about to drone her out thinking about deep ical truths like the reason for our existenikita says something different, "At this point, I banish Yuki-Onna, The Icicle Mayakashi effect from the GY to activate her effect that allows me to special summon 1 of my Zombie Synohat is banished or in the GY-."
At this point, I interrupt her and yell out, "OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! JUST DO IT QUICKLY!"
A few moments ter...
On Nikita's side of the field, there are 4 monsters, Yuki-Onna, Gashadokuro, Yoko, and fug Dakki all in attack position, then she points her fi Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Gaxy and decres, "Yuki-Onna attack Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Gaxy!".
And under her order, the ghostly dy moves to attack my dragon, at the same time, I start to think, 'Should I use Return of the Dragon Lords' other effects to protect Hope Harbinger Dragon... er not, I have enough LP to survive this turn and maybe turn things around.'
Meanwhile, Yuki-Onna freezes aroys my only defense on the field leaving me wide open for the direct attack of the remaining monsters for a whopping total of 7200 LP of damage leavih only 800 LP and no cards in my hand something that Nikita also notices as she ents, "It seems that the first victory belongs to me."
Jayr - 800 LP
Nikita - 8000 LP
I simply smile at that and say, "I draw." then look at the card in my hand and a smile forms on my face, then I quickly py it, "I py the spell card Return of the Dragon Lords and special summon from the GY Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand in attack position."
And so my Dragon Form resurfaces once more in all its glory making Nikita ent, "Again? That card is useless..."
Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand - ATK 2800 / DEF 2800
Spoiler
[colpse]Hearing that, I smirk and decre, "Now that Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand ecial summoned from the GY, I use its effect, and target 1 monster you trol or in yraveyard; banish it, and if I do, this card gains ATK and DEF equal to the banished monster's inal Level/Rank x 100, and I choose Gashadokuro and si is a level 11 monster, Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand gains 1100 ATK and DEF!"
Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand - ATK 3900 / DEF 3900
Seeing that, Nikita, "Wait! What!?" but I ignore her and without pause, I point at Yuki-Onna and and, "Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand attack Yuki-Onna!"
Felgra out another majestic roar then it fired a golden energy breath which easily destroyed Yuki-Onna and damaged Nikita's LP.
Jayr - 800
Nikita - 7000
Before she could say anything else, I say, "Since Felgraroyed an oppo's monster, I ow use its other effect, which allows me tet 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster in the Graveyard, except "Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand" and special summon it. And of course, my target is Dragon Spirit of White, which I summon in attack position."
Felgrand releases another loud roar as it glows with a starlit golden light, and soon beside him, the Dragon Spirit of White appears once more.
Dragon Spirit of White - ATK 2500 / DEF 2000
Spoiler
[colpse]Then I and, "Dragon Spirit of White attack Dakki!"
The se on Spirit of White obliterating Dakki with its pure white dragoh gave me more pleasure than I'd like to admit, at the same time, the distaween my and Nikita's LP gets even shorter.
Jayr - 800
Nikita - 5500
I end the battle phase aer the main phase 2 and start to analyze the situation, 'I have Felgrand and Dragon Spirit on the field, while Nikita has only Yoko who has 2900 attack points, if she uses to attack Dragon Spirit I'll only take 400 LP of damage, cutting them in half but still enough to survive aurn and pull off an upset, if she is able t out Dakki again and Synmon anashadokuro with its 3300 ATK points things could get ugly as that are just 800 LP of damage!'
Realizing this, I decre, "Now I overy Felgrand and Dragon Spirit to XYZ Summon Gaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon from my extra deck."
And the moment, a multicolored dragon with a partly translut body and wings appears on the field in the pce of the previous monsters.
Gaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon - ATK 3000 / DEF 2500
Spoiler
[colpse]After that I say, "And now I detach 1 material from this card to activate its effect, which allows me tet 1 face-up monster you trol and take trol of the targeted monster until the End Phase, but while this effect is applied, it has its effeegated, its ATK bees 3000, also its name bees "Gaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon" and I target your only remaining monster, Yoko."
As soon as I say that, Gaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragos out a mighty roar, and Yoko on Nikita's field is then enveloped in multicolored light and is quickly transferred to my side of the field where it transforms into anaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon.
Seeing that I smirk and say, "And now I use the Yoko Gaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon as a material to XYZ Summon Gaxy-Eyes Cipher X Dragon in defense position, while also using the inal Gaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon as material for XYZ Gaxy-Eyes Full Armor Photon in defense position."
Under my and the two Gaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon gh an astonishing transformation, one bee equipped with a pitch-bck armor that covers most of the body, while the other bees a more advanced version of Gaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon, with four wings behind its back that form an "X", and both annouheir preseh a mighty roar.
Gaxy-Eyes Cipher X Dragon - ATK 4000 / DEF 3000

[colpse]Gaxy-Eyes Full Armor Photon - ATK 4000 / DEF 3500

[colpse]Nikita who saw all that happen before her very eyes, snaps out of her shocked state and excims, "What the holy hell happened!? You had no cards in hand, ay field, and only 800 LP! Did you really just pull off a Destiny Draw out of nowhere!? Isn't that something that happens only in the anime!!?"
Seeing that, I raise my head proudly and as a proud member of the Teoppa Dai-Gurren Brigade, I decre, "Who the hell do you think I am? Look at my hair, I am Jayr Pucci, and I am an anime character!"
I look at her deadpan eyes a out a cough, then I say, "Anyway, I end my turn."
Nikita clicks her tongue and says, "I draw." she then looks at her hand and at the field for a few seds, and then she smirks and says, "It seems I still do something about that... I py the Quick Spell Card Forbidden Droplet, which lets me send any number of other cards from my hand and/or field to the GY; choose that many Effect Monsters my oppo trols, and until the end of this turn, their ATK is halved, also their effects are ed. Moreover, in respoo this card's activation, you ot activate cards, or the effects of cards, with the same inal type (Monster/Spell/Trap) as the cards sent to the GY to activate this card. And I send these two monster cards in my hands, Mezuki and Dakki, the Graceful Mayakashi."
Instantly, I watch worried as two drops of clear water fall from the sky and hit both my monsters making them weaker aing their effects.
Gaxy-Eyes Cipher X Dragon - ATK 2000 / DEF 30axy-Eyes Full Armor Photon - ATK 2000 / DEF 3500
But that isn't what worries me, what worries me is one of the cards she sent to the GY to activate this effect, and I was indeed right as Nikita then tinues, "Now, I activate Mezuki's effed banish him from the GY to Special Summon a zombie monster from my GY, and I chose Soul-Abs Boower which I summon in defense position."
And the menag giant tower of bones appears in front of her, as the thing I was dreading the most finally happens, and now I only hope that she 't pull off enough special summons to fuck me up.
Soul-Abs Boower - ATK 400 / DEF 1500

[colpse]Nikita then says, "Now, I py the Spell Card Mayakashi Return, which allows me to take 1 "Mayakashi" card from my Deck, except "Mayakashi Return", aher add it to my hand or send it to the GY, I chose to add Hajun, the Winged Mayakashi to the hand and summon it in attack position, which allows me to activate its effed Special Summon from the deck Yuki-Musume, The Ice Mayakashi which also makes Soul-Abs Boower activate its effect, that allows me to send 2 cards from your deto the GY each time a zombie monster is Special Summoned."
