Karen to Duel?

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

The blonde-haired Karen was looking around for someone to duel. Her EARTH deck dominated Shadow back before the tournament. And she, as all duelists did, had one free deck change before the finals.

 

"How hard can it be to find someone to duel?" asked Karen to no one in particular.

 

"I'll duel ya," came a reply from behind her. Karen spun around. Her challenger couldn't have been more than 8 years old. How'd he get to be in this tournament? she thought. Oh well, a win's a win. "Alright," she said, "I'm Karen. What's your name, little boy?"

 

"I'm Johnny. And there's no way you can beat me. I already have 4 Battle Stars!" He produced them out of his pocket as proof of an earlier victory. Then he quickly clenched his hand. "Time for a coin flip, Karen. Tails!" he called out, tossing a quarter into the air. It landed on heads.

 

"I guess I'm going first, Johnny," said Karen, slamming her deck into her duel disc. "I wager two stars, then I draw."

 

K-8000 J-8000

 

"I summon my Warrior Dai Grepher (1700/1600) and play The Allied Forces."

 

The Allied Forces - SPELL - Continuous - For each Warrior and Spellcaster you have in play, each of your Warrior monsters get an extra 200 ATK.

 

WDG: 1900/1600

 

"I set a card and end my turn. Go, Johnny."

 

Johnny drew his card. "I summon Solar Flare Dragon!"

 

Solar Flare Dragon - FIRE - LV 4 - Pyro/Effect - During your End Phase, your opponent takes 500 damage. This card cannot be attacked as long as you control another Pyro-type monster. - 1500/1000

 

"I also play Triplicate* to copy my Dragon."

 

Triplicate - SPELL - Pay Life Points equal to the ATK of one of your monsters. Special Summon 2 copies of that monster from your deck.

 

"So I summon 2 more Solar Flare Dragons (1500/1000 [x2]), and now you can't attack."

 

K-8000 J-6500

 

"But that's not all, you also take 1500 damage in my End Phase due to my Dragons, and I'll make it even more by playing Dark Room of Nightmare."

 

Dark Room of Nightmare - SPELL - Continuous - Whenever you deal effect damage to an opponent, except by a card named "Dark Room of Nightmare", inflict 300 damage to your opponent.

 

"Now you'll take an additional 900 damage each turn. Go," finished Johnny, but not before Johnny's Dragons each hit Karen with a fireball, and Dark Room of Nightmare lashed out thrice.

 

K-8000 --> 7500 --> 7200 --> 6700 --> 6400 --> 5900 --> 5600 J-6500

 

Karen drew her hand up to 4. She readied to play, then did. "I summon Amazoness Sword Woman (1500/1600 --> 1900/1600)."

 

WDG: 2100/1600

 

She continued. "I also play Earth Chanter (1300/1000)..."

 

ASW: 2200/1600

WDG: 2400/1600

 

"... which I equip with United We Stand (1300/1000 --> 3700/3400). Go."

 

Johnny drew. "I play Raging Flame Sprite."

 

Raging Flame Sprite - FIRE - LV 3 - Pyro/Effect - This card can attack directly. If it deals damage directly, increase this card's ATK by 1000. - 100/200

 

"Flame Sprite, attack directly."

 

K-5500 J-6500

 

RFS: 1100/200

 

"Next, I play one card face down and end my turn."

 

K-5500 ----------------> 3100 J-6500

 

Karen drew. Bingo! "I summon Des Wombat!" she exclaimed.

 

Des Wombat - EARTH - LV 4 - Beast/Effect - You do not take effect damage. - 1600/400

 

EC: 4500/4200

DW: 1900/400

 

"Earth Chanter, attack Raging Flame Sprite!" commanded Karen.

 

"Well, I'll activate Backfire, anyway."

 

Backfire - TRAP - Continuous - When one of your FIRE monsters is destroyed, deal 500 damage to your opponent.

 

K-3100 J-3100

 

Karen motioned for Johnny to draw. "I draw for my turn and sacrifice one of my Solar Flare Dragons for Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch."

 

Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch - FIRE - LV 6 - Pyro/Effect - When this card is Tribute Summoned, your opponent discards a card at random. If it is a monster, inflict damage to your opponent equal to that monster's level x 100. - 2400/1000

 

"It won't deal damage either way, but Thestalos will still discard the card from your hand. What was it?" Karen reveals her newly-discarded card: Buster Blader.

 

Buster Blader - EARTH - LV 7 - Warrior/Effect - This card gains 500 ATK for each Dragon on your opponent's field, and in his/her graveyard. - 2600/2300

 

"Well, I don't lose 700 Life Points, or the 300 from your Nightmare Room," taunted Karen.

 

"It doesn't matter: Thestalos, attack Des Wombat!" Johnny's monster barbecued that wombat, and Karen's Life Points took a hit.

 

K-2300 J-3100

 

EC: 3700/3400

 

"I move to my End Phase and knock you down to 700!"

 

"Not quite. I activate Call of the Haunted to revive Des Wombat (1600/400)," responded Karen.

 

EC: 4500/4200

 

Karen had nothing left to do but topdeck. "I draw," she stated plainly. "I attack Thestalos with Earth Chanter."

 

K-2300 J-1000

 

"I'll summon Cat's Ear Tribe (200/100 --> 500/100) and end my turn."

 

EC: 5300/5000

 

Johnny drew his card for the turn. He still couldn't be attacked, so it didn't matter what monsters she played. "I play Molten Destruction."

 

Molten Destruction - SPELL - Field - Each FIRE monsters gains 500 ATK and loses 400 DEF.

 

SFD: 2000/600 [x2]

 

Johnny commanded his attack. "I attack Des Wombat with my first dragon."

 

K-1900 J-1000

 

EC: 4500/4200

 

He continued. "With my other Dragon, I attack Cat's Ear Tribe. Even with my monster's original ATK dropping to 200, I still destroy it."

 

SFD: 700 VS CET: 500

 

K-1700 J-1000

 

EC: 3700/3400

 

"I end my turn and hit you for 1600!"

 

K-0100 J-1000

 

Okay, thought Karen, I need to draw something now, or I'll lose. I can't even destroy a Dragon or I'll lose then. She thought for a moment and drew. She looks at her card and places it facedown. "I end my turn."

 

Johnny drew his hand up to 3. But first, Karen had something to do. "I activate Destruction Ring."

 

Destruction Ring - TRAP - Destroy 1 monster you control. Deal 1000 damage to both players.

 

"I'll target my Amazoness. Now, unless you have a quick-play at hand, this duel is a draw."

 

Johnny scanned his hand, looking for his Poison of the Old Man.

 

Poison of the Old Man - SPELL - Quick-Play - Choose 1: You gain 1200 Life Points or your opponent takes 800 damage.

 

 

But alas, it was nowhere to be found. "Darn it."

 

K-0000 J-0000

 

“Well, I guess we play a tie-breaker round now,” said Karen.

 

TO BE CONTINUED...

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

Well, I wasn't planning that. Well, tune in next time for the tie-breaker Karen VS Johnny.
