Kyogi clutched his side, feeling the sting of the rapier very vividly. If he felt all this pain, then his opponent must have had it much worse. That pleased him; it meant Kuro must have been panicking. For all the adult's talk of sending Kyogi into a coma it seeked ironic to see them lose their cool so easily, helped by getting beaten by someone who had never played before. The boy felt himself toppling over even though he wasn't standing, courtesy of the impact the Hell Dragoon made with the floor, shattering the oni on his field. It was annoying, but Ryuji had served its purpose. Now all Kyogi had to do was deal with the remaining pests, as it looked like this was Mr. Kuro's last stand...

Kyogi spoke calmly as he crushed the support card in his hand, another Shadow Assassin spawning on the field to fend off Kuro. At the same time, Kyogi observed the Siren on the other end of the battlefield. It looked like his Dragonette was getting distracted by her, but Kyogi needed the dragon-clothed warrior to hold off the Hell Dragoon. Jaques couldn't get any faster to the creature than his Dragonette, so Kyogi opted to play his [b]Standard Crossbow[/b] card, firing off a bolt aimed squarely at the siren's head. With any luck it would kill the creature and free Dragonette from her spell.

Now Kyogi was in a pickle, however. He was out of support cards, so the creatures he had on the field were the best it was going to get. The two Shadow assassins were evenly matched, but if Kyogi's went down it would form a problem. So, he summoned another [b]Fine Katana[/b] and had Jaques rush at the Shadow Assassin Kuro summoned. His Hellbat would keep the opponent distracted for long enough to give him this opening, and the Shadow Assassin would not likely survive a two-on-one attack.

[color=c5c1b9]"Are you having fun, Kuro-'Sensei'?"[/color] Kyogi echoed as he watched his plan put into motion.
