~Chapter 16: A Battle Against Myself~
In Yugi's universe...
Yugi's friends saw everything. They wouldn't move an inch from their positions. It was a suspense movie and the plot thickened. When Black Magician Girl was destroyed, Yami understood her actions.
"Black Magician Girl must've let herself be destroyed to eliminate the Exodia parts in the graveyard!" said Yami. "That's the only way to destroy Exodia Necros!"
"Smart girl." said Seto.
Yami and the others then stared unblinking at Yugi in the TV in pure amazement and admiration as the petite warrior tranformed and didn't look as insignificant as others (who don't know him) saw him. Yami, Bakura, and Seto themselves felt fear creeping up their spines as they saw this new side of Yugi.
**********
Alternate Universe...
Exodia Necros and Black Magician start to slowly back away from Yugi, now afraid of his unleashed power. They stop when they feel their master's aura behind them, flashing in a threatening manner.
'Cowards.' Nessuro thought in disgust. He meerly stared at Yugi with satisfaction.
"Let us continue our fight, Nessuro." said Yugi, his sword glowing white.
Weapon ready, Yugi was determined not to lose. He quickly went for a frontal assault, but Black Magician and Exodia Necros blocked his path to shield their master.
"Out of my way!" Yugi yelled at them.
Nessuro smirked as the monsters didn't reply. Exodia Necros fired a dark green energy blast at Yugi, yet he managed to dodge the beam easily.
'Show me what you're made of, Yugi.' Nessuro thought as he enjoyed the fight.
Yugi dodged both energy attacks from both Exodia Necros and Black Magician. He planned to have Exodia Necros gain enough power, so he could "accidently" blow Black Magician in the process of trying to hit him. The small warrior attacked the big black monster by slashing at its right arm with his glowing sword. It did no physical damage, but that increased Exodia Necros' power and anger. Black Magician send a blast of black magic at Yugi, but the nimble warrior deflected it with his katana.
Exodia Necros, irritated by the little pest, goes on a wild rampage. He threw a power sphere at Yugi, hoping it would disintegrate him. However, Yugi anticipated the attack and stood in front of Black Magician. At the last second, he leaped out of the way and Black Magician was destroyed by the blast. Nessuro laughed softly at what happened.
"I expected no less." said Nessuro.
Yugi landed in front of Exodia Necros; there was a smoking crater where Black Magician once stood behind him. Yugi slashed rapidly at the creature, but the mighty monster was only annoyed by the blows. The little warrior frowned at this.
'How can I defeat him, when even my best techniques seem to have no effect?!'
"It's kill or be killed, Yugi." said Nessuro. "You will never leave this place alive."
Yugi shot him another glare. "I'm going to prove you wrong, demon!"
"Really? And how are you going to do that?"
"I'll find a way!" Yugi shouted while dodging another blast and a right-cross.
**********
Black Magician Girl roamed about the dark gloomy territory of the Graveyard, where the many souls of the monsters killed before roamed around. She wasn't angry at Yugi for the ones he killed, for he had fought in self-defense. The Oracle's apprentice resented Nessuro for manipulating her friends.
"I know how to defeat that horrible beast; that's why I chose to be killed." she said to herself. "Its power lies here in the Graveyard."
Black Magician searched the place, avoiding the souls of the other monsters in case they were still under Nessuro's control. Most of them ignored her existence and wandered around like empty shells. Soon, the apprentice found who she was looking for...the almightly Exodia.
Exodia was whole, and his body was snared in dark-green energy chains. He struggled to get free, but it was of little use. Exodia looked up. Black Magician girl was surprised to see he was alright, free from Nessuro's control unlike the others.
"Black Magician Girl!" the monster called out of her.
"Exodia, I have come to set you free!"
Black Magician Girl floated in mid air and tried to blast the chains off with her staff, but they weren't damaged.
"I know what is happening outside." said Exodia. "The only way to destroy the vile Necros...is to utterly destroy me."
"I...I can't do that." The apprentice hesitated.
"I won't let you, anyhow." said a voice behind her.
Black Magician Girl turned around, Exodia looked up. They found themselves face to face with Black Magician and Injection Fairy Lily.
"Only two of you, huh?" Black Magician Girl regarded them with a sad look. "I thought things would get worse, sensei."
"It's about to!" The Oracle sneered at her.
He sent a black magic blast at Black Magician Girl, but she evaded it and it hit Exodia instead. He screamed in pain, but stayed on his feet. Lily tried to stab the Oracle's apprentice with her large needle, but the agile woman dodged her blows. While doing so, she got an idea, realizing what she had to do.
Black Magician Girl kept the duo busy until they got irritated and decided to end the bout by combining their powers. They stood before their victim, who floated in mid air waiting, and started to bring about their full power.
'This is it!' she thought.
Black Magician and Injection Fairy Lily fired a mix of pink-red and ebony energy blast at the blonde woman. At the last second, she leaped out of the way. As she flew high, Black Magician Girl quickly turned around and combined her own black magic with theirs. It was now zooming towards Exodia!
"WHAT THE-?!" The evil duo was taken by surprise.
The combined trio of energy hit and engulfed Exodia. Black Magician Girl showed a sad smile, as did Exodia. He then let out a final yell of victory before exploding and disappearing for good.
'It worked.' the apprentice half-cheered. She smiled at Nessuro's servants. "Thank you for the help, sensei. I really must be going now. I have...unfinished business with someone."
With that, the apprentice vanished.
**********
Exodia Necros was in the middle of another attack, when it suddenly exploded into particles. Nessuro shielded himself from them; Yugi stared in shock.
"What they-?!" said Yugi.
"Well, it seems she was successful after all." Nessuro said calmly.
'Black Magician Girl?' Yugi thought.
Nessuro charged at the unexpecting Yugi with his black sword, moving like a shadow in the already dark room. Yugi blocked him in time, but was sent back a few feet. His continous fights with the monsters left him drained and fatigued.
"I really...don't know...how much...more ot this...I can take." he said panting.
"Come on, Yugi." said the amused Nessuro. "Is that all you got? I thought you'd be more of a challenge!" He sent a black energy blast at the hero.
Yugi barely dodged the beam; it burned him on his neck slightly at it passed by.
Nessuro smirked. "Or maybe you need more motivation?" Yugi's eyes widened slightly. "I'll enjoy devouring that girl's soul."
Yugi glared. "Don't...you...dare, Nessuro!!" 'I have got to think of something, quick!'
Yugi and his alternate self continued fighting. Like before, they were both evenly matched. But with Yugi drained he began to have problems keeping up with the evil Nessuro. Nessuro was winning, still the small warrior refuse to fall at his feet. The hero blocked another hit and was sent back farther than first time and fell over. Nessuro then stopped his attacks and smiled at Yugi, who stood up again.
"So Yugi, do you give up already? I could just consume your soul and end your suffering. I'm getting bored anyway...You disappoint me."
Yugi breathed hard. "Just...leave my...friends alone, Nessuro."
"Sorry, but I can't do that. They belong to me. I'll do with them what I please. And as soon as I gain better control of the dimension travel, I can go into your universe and many others." He stretched his free hand toward Yugi. "Now, give me your soul!"
Yugi's body glowed with Nessuro's hand. Pain went through him as his very soul was being ripped from his body. He shut his eyes tightly and gritted his teeth. Opening his eyes half way, the warrior saw Nessuro was distracted. He sent whatever power he had left into his katana. Yugi flung it at the evil one. The blade exploded into bright, white shards that scarred and burned away at Nessuro's face when they hit him.
"AHHHH!!!" Nessuro held his face in pain, releasing his hold on Yugi's soul, who sighed in relief.
'Yes!!' Yugi mentally cheered. Still, to the small warrior's surprise, Nessuro's skin melted away to reveal half an ashen gray, horrible demonic face and one red and black eye.
"Now you've done it." the entity growled in a deeper voice.
Yugi took a good look at Nessuro's new face. Now he truly looked like a demon. He quickly sent a mental signal; the broken pieces of his katana reassembled itself whole and returned to its owner's hand.
"Now, this is serious." he said.
"You have crossed me, Yugi Mutou." said Nessuro, his canines growing larger. "Once I swallow your soul, you and your pathetic friends will become nothing, nothing but a worthless memory of what you used to be."
"Not today!" Yugi snarled.
Yugi positioned himself in an offensive stance, ready for the biggest battle of his life. But this time, something different happened. Nessuro ripped away the rest of his fake skin to expose his real appearance completely. Then he was laughing again. Yugi was mildly surprised.
"Maybe this won't turn out disappointing after all." Nessuro said, grining. "I'll have to stop playing if I want to kill you."
"What?!" Yugi yelled. "You mean all this time you've been...holding back?"
"From the very beginning, yes. You have seen nothing yet, savior of light. I'll rip your soul to shreds anytime now. But I can feel the power inside of you. You have proven yourself, Yugi. And for that, I believe, you deserve a reward. You may not live to see me conquer all the existing universes, but..."
Yugi stared in a horrid fascination as Nessuro's eyes changed color. They went to from black and red to a sickly pupiless white with green veins. The green veins seemed to spread all over his ashen gray face.
"I will let you see beyond what you see right now." said Nessuro.
For some odd reason, Yugi suddenly found himself frozen in place; he couldn't take his eyes from staring right into the entity's eyes. The demonic eyes glowed, and it felt like an electric current going between them; something undescribable pulsed from those eyes. Yugi could hear a heart strongly beating in his ears, but he couldn't tell if it was actually his...for his mind went blank...he heard an echoing laugh...and the world went black..
