The criminal noticed that he was surrounded: the three people that had entered the courtyard were joined by two other students, entering from the other two doors. "Ah, shit", he snarled, "Guess I'm just gonna have to get rid of you all. With the power I was gifted with, I'm invincible now!". Before anyone could lift a finger, he drew a strange harpoon-like... thing from his left sleeve, and threw it at Akio's Duel Disk. Then, he pulled, dragging him closer. The very moment he did that, a bizarre curtain of purple flames burst from the ground, separating the two from the stunned bystanders. Then, he screamed psychotically: "Hahaha! Ready to die? I challenge you... to a Shadow Duel!" Akio grit his teeth and cursed under his breath this lunatic and the old man who had seen it fit to throw him to do the dirty work of catching a Shadow Duelist. But then again, whether he won or lost, he might as well stroke his ego a bit and look cool in the process. "The only thing you're gonna get gifted with will be a couple of handcuffs... and a kick to the ass, imbecilic windbag. DRAW!" TURN 1: Akio 8000 - [b]Shadow Duelist 8000[/b] The two drew their starting hands, and the hooded figure proclaimed: "Ha! Perfect! I Set one Monster in face-down Defense position, and end my turn!" TURN 2: [b]Akio 8000[/b] - Shadow Duelist 8000 Akio taunted his opponent: "Oh, really? All that noise for two face-down cards and a monster? Pffft..." His hand looked decent, though he was still pissed that he didn't have Drago, especially in such a fragile situation. [i]Iron Core, Urnight, Core Reinforcement, Mirror Force and Core Blast... not bad, but let's hope to draw something decent...[/i] "I draw!" [i]Crusader? Well, damn. Something useful, for a change.[/i] He smiled, and then said: "Well, I Set two face-down cards, then I Summon 'Koa'ki Meiru Urnight'!" The familiar armor-clad centaur descended on the field. "Then, of course, I use its Effect! So, by revealing this 'Iron Core of Koa'ki Meiru' in my hand, I can Special Summon another monster from my deck! And I choose... Koa'ki Meiru Sandman!" The Koa'ki Meiru emblem lit up on Urnight's chest, and the monster emitted a feral cry, that resembled a slightly high-pitched version of a lion's roar mixed with a hyena's cry. A whirlwind of sand started forming by Urnight's side, when the Shadow Duelist yelled "I activate one of my Trap cards! With Raigeki Break, I can destroy your Urnight if I discard one card!" True to word, he discarded one of his cards, and a lightning shot from the sky, frying Urnight. Akio expected to see his monster's image shattered into pieces, but instead, he saw it burned to ashes by the lightning, as it screamed inhumanly, before collapsing to the ground and turning to ash. All this while his opponent was grinning like a madman.
