[center][h3][b][color=00a651]Angelo[/color] & [color=9e0039]???[/color][/b][/h3][/center] Angelo growled loudly when he heard the mocking of the duelist, calling him a little puppy as he was forced into a turbo duel because, somehow, he wasn't on the school track anymore. He knew that he couldn't just jump offand attack the duelist. If Ethel wasn't watching then Angelo would have a few voice words for her. Angelo turned on his duel disk before he said [color=00a651]"Believe me, when we are done I'm going to kick your teeth in for that insult. I'm going to win and I'm going to make you sing, little bird!"[/color] he said, mad as hell and ready to beat her in a duel. [color=9e0039]"Oh my, I'm shaking in my boots... why don't we [i]test[/i] that little attitude of yours, hm~?"[/color] The purple figure continued to mock Angelo as the holographic countdown materialized in front of the two duelists. Both of them got ready to race for the first corner on this light road Speed World Virtua created. While it was strange the woman even had the program to begin with, the clock counting down to 0 was a more pressing concern. Once it hit and the display at the bottom turned green, the woman and Angelo took off with blazing speed while shouting: [b][color=00a651]"Turbo Duel:[/color] [color=9e0039]Accelerate!"[/color][/b] Despite Angelo working on his runner almost religiously, it still wasn't a match for the technology the woman possessed, as she sped ahead in an instant. Even if the runner wasn't twice as fast, it sure seemed like it was as it passed the first corner in no time flat, taking the lead already. [color=9e0039]"Oh my! Is that all you have? Well then, don't mind me taking the first turn then..."[/color] [hider=Acceleration! Angelo Vs. The persistent Parasites...] [b][u]Turn 1: Mysterious Turbo Duelist[/u][/b] Angelo: 4000 LP, 5 cards in hand, 1 Speed Counter Mysterious Turbo Duelist: 4000 LP, 5 cards in hand, 1 Speed Counter The woman swiftly drew five cards and fanned them out in her wrist dealer, giving only a cursory glance at them. [color=9e0039]"It seems I'll have to start off by going easy on you... what a shame! I'll set a monster, and that's all from me!"[/color] A reversed card appeared next to the lady's Duel Runner, with the monster beneath being unknown. [b][u]Turn 2: Angelo[/u][/b] Angelo: 4000 LP, 6 cards in hand, 2 Speed Counters Mysterious Turbo Duelist: 4000 LP, 4 cards in hand, 1 monster, 2 Speed Counters Angelo growled as she took the first turn. Angelo trained like crazy to be able to get the first turn. This just meant that she had something extra in her duel runner to speed it up indefinetly. Angelo could only go so far with the parts allowed by the academy and this was a perfect example of how limited he was in terms of tech. He knew he had the talent to take her down if he had the right tools. Angelo took his 5 cards from his deck and checked to see what he had available. Angelo gritted his teeth seeing that he didn't have much to work with considering the situation. Still, if nothing else he wouldn't be the one taken by surprise. He then reached into his deck and said [color=00a651]"My draw!"[/color] He said and drew another card which helped eleviate his stress a bit. He was seriously going to consider going to pool after this to relax. [color=00a651]"Let's get started! I summon Spear Dragon!"[/color] Angelo called out as he placed the card on his disk and the rainbow orb appeared before a loud screech was heard and the dragon was flying with a large head that pointed forward. Much like his name suggested, it was in the shape of a spear. [b]Spear Dragon[/b]: 1900 ATK 0 DEF Level 4 WIND Dragon [color=00a651]"Let's see whats your card is, Spear Dragon attack!"[/color] Angelo said and the dragon flew up before making a dive towards the card with great speed to literally pierce through the card. Spear Dragon's spear-like mouth struck true, with the monster revealed to be a small, cream-coloured insect with clear wings twice the size of it's body. It easily shattered, and 700 points of damage was dealt to it's controller. [b]Mysterious Turbo Duelist LP:[/b] 4000 > 3300 The woman in the front looked back at Angelo, and even though he couldn't see her face the boy could still sense that mocking smile underneath her helmet. [color=9e0039]"Thank you, because when Pahrasy Harrissio is destroyed by battle, I can add my Pahrasy Wespe from my deck to my hand!"[/color] A single card jutted out of the woman's deck, which she quickly flashed for Angelo to see. It pictured a small, winged creature not unlike a bee or wasp. Angelo groaned and shook his head as he said [color=00a651]"I knew you creeped the hell out of me for some reason,"[/color] he said more annoyed than afraid. He hated bugs and he would enjoy crushing hers under the power of his dragons. Once she finished with her card's ability, Angelo saw his dragon cover himself with his wings trying to defend itself. That was the downside of Spear dragon although he was powerful he had no defense to speak of. Angelo then said [color=00a651]"Alright from, there I set two cards face down and end my turn!"[/color] Angelo said, placing the two cards down hidden from his opponent knowing that they would help in the end. [b][u]Turn 3: Mysterious Turbo Duelist[/u][/b] Angelo: 4000 LP, 3 cards in hand, 1 monster, 2 S/T, 3 Speed Counters Mysterious Turbo Duelist: 3300 LP, 6 cards in hand, 3 Speed Counters [color=9e0039]"Hm hm~! Then it's my turn to draw!"[/color] the woman sang, swiping the next card from the top of her deck. She took it and Wespe from her hand and flashed them to Angelo again. [color=9e0039]"Aren't you lucky! With Pahrasy Cimicae's special ability, I can Special Summon it and Wespe from my hand!"[/color] Two more bugs appeared on the woman's field, flying out of ranbow coloured vortexes. One was the wasp-ish creature Angelo saw before, barely the size of his wheels. It's black body contrasted with the brown, beetle-like appearance of Cimicae as it only let Angelo see it's glowing, teal eyes and hard shell. [b]Pahrasy Cimicae:[/b] 200 ATK 700 DEF Level 2 EARTH Insect Tuner [b]Pahrasy Wespe:[/b] 500 ATK 500 DEF Level 2 EARTH Insect [color=9e0039]"Hey, you loooove Turbo Duels right? You absolutely [i]must[/i] know how they came to be... during a time when Ener-D was the newest invention. People rode along with their monsters, and you know what kind of monsters those were, don't you? In fact... I can sense some of them from your deck."[/color] the woman teased Angelo. [color=00a651]"Don't lecture me on Turbo duels, you maggot. I know how Turbo duels came to be and I think about it every time I Turbo duel. The monsters you are referring to are Synchro monsters. They are the monsters that created a new way to summon powerful monsters by using special monsters called tuners and regular monsters. I am guessing it's because you are planning to tune and you wanted to feel superior about it, right?"[/color] He asked knowing it was obvious. He was getting tired of this cocky bitch talking down to him like this. The woman laughed in response, letting go of her controls for just a moment to do a little clap for Angelo. [color=9e0039]"Wonderful! A passing grade! As I thought, you really love your Synchro monsters... but I'm afraid your conclusions on why I asked are a little off. Not that it matters... you'll do nicely as you are. But first, I tune my Level two Cimicae to my level two Wespe!"[/color] Cimicae crawled forward on the track and burst into two futuristic green rings, which Wespe did a small loop around before flying in. The black bug turned into two glowing stars, causing a pillar of light to strike through the rings next to the woman's Runner. [color=9e0039][i][b]"Using the clustering stars as nutrition, make them afraid of their own body. Synchro Summon, Level 4! Pahrasy Lynde!"[/b][/i][/color] From the beam of light appeared a huge, grotesque worm. It was stark white in colour and didn't seem to have a mouth or even eyes, but the green slime oozing from the side of it's body implied there was more to this monster than met the eye. [b]Pahrasy Lynde:[/b] 1500 ATK 2000 DEF Level 4 EARTH Synchro Insect [color=9e0039]"Lynde really never lets me down~! But her little friends help her out today, as Pahrasy Wespe gives 500 ATK to the Synchro Monster it is used as a material for!"[/color] The black insect from before suddenly buzzed onto the track again, flying around Lynde. It rested atop the giant and bit into their flesh. If Lynde wasn't large enough already, this act only made it bigger. [b]Pahrasy Lynde:[/b] 1500 ATK > 2000 ATK [color=9e0039]"Oh Lyyynde? Won't you crush that annoying little dragon?"[/color] the woman sweetly asked her monster, which floated over to Spear Dragon and let itself drop onto the poor thing. Unable to handle the weight, Angelo's monster shattered underneath Pahrasy Lynde. [color=9e0039]"I think this is enough for now. I'll end my turn, but before I do, here's a little warning: A parasite attaches itself to a host and feeds off of them. Now have fun~!"[/color] [b][u]Turn 4: Angelo[/u][/b] Angelo: 4000 LP, 4 cards in hand, 2 S/T, 4 Speed Counters Mysterious Turbo Duelist: 3300 LP, 4 cards in hand, 1 monster, 4 Speed Counters Angelo watched through the situation as if he was not impressed. [color=00a651]"Congrats, you got to summon a giant worm. I'm so scared. Just because you got that oversized maggot onto the field doesn't mean you won't go down the same way!"[/color] Angelo said before he drew from his deck and said [color=00a651]"I Draw!"[/color] before he looked at the card he drew. Angelo then smiled when he saw a perfect combo just waiting to start. [color=00a651]"Time to show you what happens when you piss off a dragon! From my hand I summon Dragunity Militum,"[/color] Angelo called out as he placed the card down on the field and from the orb came out an armored female in white and gold armor with what looked like metalic butterfly wings and two short swords in hand. When it came out it gave a spin before striking a battle pose. [b]Dragunity Militum[/b]: ATK 1700 DEF 1200 Level 4 WIND Winged beast [color=00a651]"Now she is a beautiful and strong monster but don't get used to her, the best thing about my deck is working the combo move. I sacrifice Militum to special summon one of the true dragons of my deck! From my hand I special summon Dragunity Arma Mystletainn, Take flight and soar to battle!"[/color] Angelo called out as Militum spun around once again and became a blue vortex and a large yellow armored dragon with a sword as big as its body but it seemed as if it was weightless. The large dragon was bigger then Angelo's duel runner and flew by his side. [b]Dragunity Arma Mystletainn[/b]: 2100 ATK 1500 DEF Level 6 WIND Dragon [color=00a651]"Now he has a special abilty as well, so let me show you. Now Mystletainn show her the power of dragons, attack her worm!"[/color] Angelo said as Arma Mystletainn flew forward and slashed the worm in half with its sword almost at lightning speed... The Turbo Duelist in front reached out her hand to her dashboard, but then retracted it again. Because of this, Mystletainn was able to slice through Lynde without any worries whatsoever. The worm exploded after being cut in half, coating Mystletainn with some of it's green goo. [b]Mysterious Turbo Duelist LP:[/b] 3300 > 3200 [color=9e0039]"Well done! You brought out such a strong monster..."[/color] Angelo smirked knowing that few things were stronger than his Arma types. The only things that were stronger were his knights. Her little parasites weren't going to take down his monster anytime soon and if she did, then he knew how to take her down still. [color=00a651]"From there I end my turn."[/color] [b][u]Turn 5: Mysterious Turbo Duelist[/u][/b] Angelo: 4000 LP, 2 cards in hand, 1 monster, 2 S/T, 5 Speed Counters Mysterious Turbo Duelist: 3200 LP, 5 cards in hand, 5 Speed Counters [color=9e0039]"Then don't mind if I take mine! Draw!"[/color] The turbo duelist gave a brief glance at the card she drew and calmly placed it in her wrist dealer. [color=9e0039]"You're a lucky one, you know? My deck is kind enough to let you see another turn. As for this one... I summon Pahrasy Epipyro from my hand!"[/color] Another insect came on the woman's field, brown and purple in colour with wings larger than it's body. It fluttered like a butterfly, but looked much more like a moth. It had a large sucker sticking out of it's face and their beady red eyes stared right through Angelo's monster. [b]Pahrasy Epipyro:[/b] 1500 ATK 0 DEF Level 3 EARTH Insect Tuner [color=9e0039]"Epipyro likes company. Their species thrives on it. As such, I'll bring back my Wespe from the Graveyard!"[/color] Epipyro whipped out it's sucker and stabbed into a vortex that opened up in the ground. It fluttered as hard as it could with it's wings to pull up the weight of Pahrasy Wespe, which buzzed next to the slightly larger bug. [b]Pahrasy Wespe:[/b] 500 ATK 500 DEF Level 2 EARTH Insect With a snap of her fingers, the woman looked back at Angelo. She still had a sizeable lead, despite them having passed the finish multiple times already. [color=9e0039]"You know... I was expecting more of you. The last girl was boring, and you're so much more fun to tease! However... you clearly aren't even close to talented with Synchro monsters. It's a real shame, you know..."[/color] He gritted his teeth as he watched the duelist bring out more bugs to annoy him and she started to say that he wasn't talented with synchros but, could anyone blame him? He only had two synchros in his deck! He really needed to go to the shop and specifically buy those synchro monsters he needed. He then said [color=00a651]"Piss off, you masked maggot. Last time I checked I am the one who has the upper hand, all you have are a few bugs that need to be crushed!"[/color] He told her, waiting for her to end her turn so he could be done. The woman waggled her finger back at Angelo, tutting underneath her helmet. [color=9e0039]"Is that so? Because last time I checked, there's a bug on your field too..."[/color] Just as the woman said, a small red bug had planted itself in Mystletainn's neck. [color=9e0039]"Surprised? Because when I banished Cimicae from my graveyard, a Pahrasy Counter was placed on your monster! Now... I tune my Level three Epipyro to my Level two Wespe!"[/color] This time it was Epipyro's turn to burst into three neon green rings, taking their place next to the purple runner. Wespe dashed through and became the bright stars that got consumed by even brighter light. [color=9e0039][i][b]"Using the clustering stars as nutrition, make them your eternal servant. Synchro Summon, Level 5! Pahrasy Slavante!"[/b][/i][/color] From the bright light emerged another insect, this time with six legs. Its body was made up of three orbs, with the middle being the smallest one and the one in the back being more drawn out and with a stinger on the end. Their head was pointed and with small mandibles for a mouth. Two large antenna stuck out right above their bright green eyes, and the entire insect was coloured a brownish yellow. [b]Pahrasy Slavante:[/b] 2100 ATK 1800 DEF Level 5 EARTH Synchro Insect Suddenly, Slavante's eyes glowed a bright red. The bug in Mystletainn's neck violently reacted to this act, biting in hard on the monster. Mystletainn tried to grab for it's neck and pull the damn thing off, but it was too small to effectively get rid of. Eventually, the struglling became weaker and weaker until the creature voluntarily joined the enemy's side of the field. [color=9e0039]"Surprised? Slavante makes any monster she desires into her servant, as long as they have a Pahrasy counter of course~! Unfortunately, this comes with a price. The monster is severely weakened... but my Wespe makes sure my Slavante more than makes up for that!"[/color] As Mystletainn shrunk and their muscles start to weaken, so did Wespe come back to mount Slavante and give them a small juice-up. [b]Pahrasy Slavante:[/b] 2100 ATK > 2600 ATK [b]Dragunity Arma Mystletainn:[/b] 2100 ATK > 1000 ATK / 1500 DEF > 1000 DEF The turbo duelist forced their runner to turn around, suddenly driving backwards. The voice that Angelo hated so much started to speak again. [color=9e0039]"Now, let me show you the true terror of parasites... Slavante, attack together with your newfound toy!"[/color] The insect had Mystletainn carry it on its back, making the monster suffer underneath the heavy weight. Slowly but surely they flew forward and slashed weakly at Angelo with its sword, letting the boy feel an actual sting that wasn't supposed to be there. Before he could recover from the pain, however, Slavante let out an ear-piercing screech. It visibly messed with Angelo's runner as it started to bug out and lose control, but not enough to make him go off track. [b]Angelo LP:[/b] 4000 > 400 The woman turned her Duel Runner around again, not looking back as she drove in front of Angelo. [color=9e0039]"Now... this is your last turn. Make it count."[/color] [b][u]Turn 6: Angelo[/u][/b] Angelo: 400 LP, 3 cards in hand, 2 S/T, 6 Speed Counters Mysterious Turbo Duelist: 3200 LP, 4 cards in hand, 2 monsters, 6 Speed Counters Angelo growled loudly and his skills saved him as he was able to stay on the track. He couldn't believe he was dealing with this BS! The stupid maggot was able to take over one of his most powerful monsters like it was nothing! He took a deep breath and calmed down as he looked at her and said [color=00a651]"Don't...get...cocky! We arent Done!"[/color] Angelo said taking a deep breath before he drew the card and looked at it hoping he found the card that will save him... Angelo sighed loudly seeing that the monster he drew wasnt one that would help. At least not at this point. However Angelo did have another chance [color=00a651]"I play the spell card Angel baton!"[/color] Angelo said placing the card down as it appeared in front of him and his speed counters went down considerably but he needed one more draw. [b]Angelo Speed Counters:[/b] 6 > 2 Angelo drew two more cards from his deck and prayed to the gods of turbo dueling for help. Angelo then smiled hearing his prayers were answered and if this worked just right he would have his chance to win again. He removed one of the cards and sent it to the graveyard as it was meant to work. He then said [color=00a651]"From my hand I summon Twin-headed Behemoth!"[/color] Angelo told him as he placed the monster on the field as it appeared roaring loudly with both heads growling at the bug. Deep black and purple with both its arms acting as its heads. [b]Twin-Headed Behemoth:[/b] 1500 ATK 1200 DEF Level 3 WIND Dragon [color=00a651]"I activate another speed spell known as Silver Contrails!"[/color] Angelo said as twin headed behmoth's attack skyrocketed. [b]Angelo's Speed Counters:[/b] 2 > 1 [b]Twin-headed Behemoth:[/b] 1500 > 2500 ATK Angelo then said [color=00a651]"Now Behemoth, go attack the traitor!"[/color] Angelo said, pointing at Arma as it charged forward and used both its head to grab the wing and the head and tear off viciously. The woman, much like when Lynde attacked, reached out for her dashboard. Even more like back then, she also retracted her hand and let the monster on her side be destroyed. The head and wings were torn off, followed by an explosion as the woman's Duel Runner wobbled a bit, giving Angelo a bit of room to catch up. Unfortunately, the woman recovered in time to still drive in front of them. [b]Mysterious Turbo Duelist LP:[/b] 3200 > 1700 [color=9e0039]"Confident, aren't you? But my Slavante is still on the field, and your Behemoth won't continue to be this pumped up..."[/color] [color=00a651]"I know that, what's your point?[/color] he asked, knowing that if he could get another turn he knew he would win. However it seemed that he wouldn't get it. [color=9e0039]"Hm... is that really all you can do, then? I'd hoped for more..."[/color] [color=00a651]"Consider yourself lucky, if I could draw once more I would win. Still, enjoy your victory now cause next time I will win, period."[/color] Angelo said with a sigh before he ended his turn and closed his eyes ready to accept his defeat. [b]Twin-headed Behemoth:[/b] 2500 > 1500 ATK [b][u]Turn 7: Mysterious Turbo Duelist[/u][/b] Angelo: 400 LP, 1 card in hand, 2 S/T, 2 Speed Counters Mysterious Turbo Duelist: 1700 LP, 5 cards in hand, 1 monster, 7 Speed Counters [color=9e0039]"Oooh? Is that a fact now? Well then, if you don't mind losing... Slavante!"[/color] The brownish yellow insect let out that horrifying screech again, this time completely frying Angelo's controls. His Duel Runner couldn't eject in time and started to violently spin, threatening to fall off the light road. In a strange turn of events however, the female runner caught Angelo as his Runner was about to fall, though making sure to let him dangle off the side so he wouldn't try anything funny to her. Even though his runner crashed down below, he himself was safe. [b]Angelo LP:[/b] 400 > 0 [h2][b]WINNER: THE MYSTERIOUS TURBO DUELIST...[/b][/h2] [/hider] [hider=Aftermath] The woman kept a tight grip on the boy as she drove down the holographic highway, making sure to give him a good view of the smoking and battered mess that was his Duel Runner down below. The road faded as she drove back to the floor, but she didn't go straight to the arena. The light road lead right into the desert, where the woman threw Angelo on a small hill of sand. She drove a bit further away to make sure he wouldn't try anything funny. [color=9e0039]"As I thought, you student types are really [i]weak[/i]... but I don't mind that. We were all weak once... but then we unlocked our [i]true[/i] potential."[/color] The masked figure looked up to the sun, darkened visor shielding them from the harsh light. Their words would have sounded nostalgic, if it weren't for that mocking undertone of hers. She then looked back at Angelo, face still hidden underneath their helmet. [color=9e0039]"Yes, weak... but your soul cries out. Not only yours, many of the students here also cry out... but yours is one of the loudest. Unlike that girl's, who was as silent as a mouse..."[/color] The woman tapped a button on her Duel Runner and a small container opened up. She took out a single card, with a border of white. A Synchro monster. She threw it to Angelo, who caught it right before it could hit his face. The card in question was named [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Phonon_Pulse_Dragon]Phonon Pulse Dragon.[/url] [color=9e0039]"Will this card make you louder or more silent? Who knows... but it's a perfect fit for a dragon tamer like you! Now... find what lies beyond Synchro. If you don't, you'll never be able to beat me!"[/color] With a cackle, the woman revved up her engines again. Angelo had to shield himself from the sand thrown his way, causing the female to become cloaked. When the sand dissipated, the female Turbo Duelist was gone as well. [/hider]
