“… this must be one of those duelist dreams that have been going around…”
Ryder C. Biston the bouffalant had found himself standing in the middle of a completely deserted pro league arena. The spotlights were on illuminating him and the barren. Sandy ground of the arena floor… but the stands were completely empty and judging by the eerie silence there wasn’t a soul around. Looking down at himself he found he was in his battle gear… meaning he was shirtless and wearing loose pants held up with a custom championship style belt he ordered just for the heck of it. Other than that everything seemed to be normal…
“So what happens next…?”
As soon as those words left his mouth a familiar tingling sensation went through his spine as he spun and knocked the incoming punch away. Not bothering to see who was attacking him he launched his own punch and found it met fist to fist by his opponent’s second punch. Sliding forward Ryder brought his knee up into the foe’s gut and as they staggered back a little he slugged them hard in the nose before rearing back to hit them with his species signature attack the headbutt… only to clash skull to skull with the foe sending them both reeling backward clutching their ringing heads. It did however confirm for Ryder exactly who had just jumped him.
It was an adult bouffalant in his late 40’s. He was also shirtless and wearing just a torn pair of jeans and a chain for a belt… which showed off his incredibly muscular and scarred body looking like something you’d see in a fighting manga. Like all bouffalant’s he had a full and round afro… but his slightly frayed at the ends giving it an unkempt look and one of his horns had been broken and refastened with a metal strip and rivets by the looks of it. Lastly he had an ugly face that looked like it’d been broken one too many times topped off with a thick, golden nose ring. Anyone who looked at him could tell he was mean and ugly… and unfortunately he was also Ryder’s father, Augustus Biston better known as “The Dumb Beast of the Pros”.
“Hey dad.” Ryder said venom and hate dripping on every word “Thought you stopped trying to sneak attack me after I nearly broke your arm last Christmas.” Augustus just snorted “You got lucky greenhorn, you just got lucky…” he said as he cracked his knuckles and flexed, trying to be intimidating. Ryder wasn’t buying it “Yeah, right. Keep telling yourself that. You’ve come to try and ruin my life in my dreams too?” he asked making his father let out an angry bellow and pound his chest as he started shouting.
“How DARE you disrespect me you little brat! After all I’ve done for you! Everything I’ve sacrificed!”
“Done for me? DONE FOR ME!? Lets tally it up dad and SEE what you’ve done for me! You’ve beaten and kicked me around since I could walk, you’ve broken my bones MULTIPLE times!”
“They always healed back up!”
“Only cause mom got me to the hospital! And even then she lied about how it happened! You randomly attacked me at home, forced me to fight you daily, tied weights to me and then beat on me, fuck it you just seemed to enjoy beating on me!!”
“THAT WAS ALL TO MAKE YOU STRONGER! YOU’RE GOING TO BE A PROBATTLER!!”
“WHAT THE FUCK MAKES YOU THINK I WANT TO BE A PROBATTLER!?”
“YOU BITE YOUR TONGUE!! EVERY MALE IN THIS FAMILY IS A FIGHTER!!”
Both mon were glaring at each other with hate and fury and looked quite ready to come to blows… till the arena shook sending them both staggering. Augustus snorted “Damn it… I’d love to teach you your place but the guy who set this up was pretty damn clear on how it’s supposed to go down…” a spiked duel disk that looked like it was made of iron appeared on his arm as a more normal looking model appeared on Ryder’s. The younger bouffalant looked at it for a moment before looking to his father.
“We settle this by dueling then? Fine with me.”
“Good! Lets get your beating started! DUEL!”
“Duel!!”

“Since I’m being challenged I’ll start this…” Ryder said pulling his card and looked his hand over “And I’ll play Spell Absorption, now I gain 500 lifepoints whenever a spells played! Next I’ll set a monster and end my turn.” Ryder said as his facedown card materialized. Augustus snorted in disgust as he drew “Let me show you a REAL move! I summon my Vorse Raider!” the ugly brown-skinned, spike and orb covered beast-warrior appeared clutching his double-bladed weapon (1900/1200) “And I’ll have him attack your monster! Savage Slash!”
Vorse Raider leapt forward and swung his weapon… and was thrown back as the monster turned over and three bookshelves rose up behind Ryder (0/2000) “Sorry dad, my Royal Magical Library is a little too tough for you.” Ryder said smirking as Augustus snarled “Well I play my Heart of the Underdog and Two-Man Cell Battle spells!” the two cards appeared as two lamps lit in Royal Magical Library and Ryder’s Spell Absorption glowed. Ryder shrugged “Okay, but I gain 500 lifepoints for each.”
Ryder LP: 9000 Augustus LP: 7900
“So what! I end my turn! And during our end phase Two-Man Cell Battle lets the person who’s turns ending special summon a level 4 normal monster from their hand… so meet my Gladiator Beast Andal!” a large bear wearing purple armor and knuckledusters appeared with a roar (1900/1500) “So take your turn!” he fumed as Ryder drew “Gladly… I’ll play my Dark Magic Curtain!” A red stage curtain with the upper half of a skeleton at the top appeared “By half my lifepoints this card lets me special summon a certain monster from my deck… so give a round of applauds to my decks headliner! The Dark Magician!!”
There was a flurry of energy as the iconic purple robed spellcaster appeard, twirling his long staff for a moment before catching it and crossing his arms, glaring sternly at Augustus (2500/2100). The older mon just snorted “Ugh, why do you waste your time with those worthless card tricks?” he asked as Ryder just ignored him and continued with his move “While I paid half my lifepoints I gain back 500 of them due to Spell Absorption… then since my Library’s gained three spell counters I’ll remove them to draw a card.” He said as the three lights in the library went out and he pulled his card.
Ryder LP: 5000 Augustus LP: 7900
“Now since my Curtain prevents me from summoning anymore this turn I’m going to set one card… and have my Magician attacks your Vorse Raider! Dark Magic attack!” he called as the Dark Magician thrust his hand out and made the ugly beast shatter as Augustus winced “And that’s all for my turn… and I don’t have any monster to summon from your cell battle.” Ryder said as his dad drew “Well my Heart of the Underdog activates now anyway! Since I drew a normal monster…” he turned the card around to show Battle Ox “I get to draw again!” he shouted and pulled his card “And I’ll play my spell Solidarity!” he shouted as the spell appeared next to his other two and Ryder’s lifepoints went up again.
Ryder LP: 5500 Augustus LP: 7300
“Now as long as I only have Beast-Warriors in my grave all my Beast-Warriors gain 800 attack!” he shouted as Andal roared and his attack rose (2700/1500) “But I’m gonna tribute him… for my Minoan Centaur!!” the bear shattered and an ugly creature rose in its place. It was a mishmash of several Greek monsters in one. A bull horned human upper torso attached to a goat hooved horse body and carry a huge double bladed axe (1800/1000), it roared as Solidarity powered it up.
“But I’m gonna tribute it to use its ability! Now I can special summon two level four normal Beast-Warrior monsters from my deck! Say hello to my Gene-Warped Warwolfs!” the centaur shattered and two ugly white furred creatures took its place… but they barely looked like wolfs at all. They were bipedal and had four arms along with thick, mane like fur on their heads… the only wolf like parts of them where the wolf-like ears sticking out of their manes. They both roared loudly (2000/100) and the roar only got louder as Solidarity powered them up (2800/100).
“Now they’ll kill that pantywaist of a man of yours! Attack with Savage Mauling!!” the first Warwolf roared and charged at Dark Magician… only for a series of three blue tophats with question marks on them to appear, one of them hiding the Dark Magician as they suddenly shuffled themselves up. Ryder chuckled at the utterly baffled looks on the faces of his father and the warwolfs “This is my Magical Hats trap. It lets me take two magic or trap cards from my deck, set them facedown, set my Dark Magician facedown, and then shuffle the three of them up… so dad, feeling lucky?”
“RIP THE MIDDLE HAT APPART!” Augustus roared as his wolf did just that… revealing a spellbook that immediately shattered “That was my Magic Formula equip spell.” Ryder explained “Usually I equip it to my Dark Magician… but it has the bonus effect of giving me 1000 lifepoints when it’s sent to the graveyard and by battle qualifies.” Augustus bellowed again as Ryder’s lifepoints rose “GET THE LEFT ONE!!” he shouted as his second Warwolf pounced… revealing a second Magic Formula. Ryder honestly laughed as his lifepoints went up again.
Ryder LP: 7500 Augustus LP: 7300
“I end my fucking turn and use Two-Man Cell Battle to special summon my Battle Ox…” Augustus fumed as the large bipedal ox in battle armor carrying an axe appeared (1700/1000) it roared as it gained power (2500/1000) and Ryder drew his card “First… I flip summon my Dark Magician!” the final hat opened up as the magician emerged, smirking softly as he looked to Augustus and wagged one chastising figure making the bouffalant snort in rage. Ryder meanwhile looked over his hand “Okay… first… I play Mystical Space Typhoon letting me destroy one of your spell or trap cards!” the spell appeared and Augustus’s Solidarity shattered as all his monsters attack fell back to their base levels (2000/100) x 2 (1700/1000) and he looked shellshocked.
“Next… I’ll play the card I could have used last turn. Diffusion Wave-Motion! This gets complicated so I’ll explain slowly. First I need to pay 1000 lifepoints to select one level seven or higher spellcaster on my field… namely my Dark Magician. Then he’s the only one of my monsters who can attack this turn… but he can attack ALL of your monsters! Now go Diffusion Wave-Motion!” Ryder shouted as Dark Magician held his staff aloft and a sphere of energy gathered in the tip growing larger before it pulsed and launched three separate waves of power out shatter each of the Beast-Warrior’s one at a time as Augusts groaned and was pushed further back with each blast.
Ryder LP: 8000 Augustus LP: 5500
“Then I’ll use my Magical Library’s effect…” the three lights in his library went out and he drew a card “… and I’ll end it with one card face down, your turn.” Ryder said as his father tore his card off the top of his deck, turning to reveal it was another Vorse Raider and drew another… which was something called a Wolf Axwielder, another normal monster letting him draw again. This time it wasn’t a normal monster apparently as he moved it to his hand “… I play Pot of Avarice!” he snarled as five monsters slipped out of his graveyard, all of them except Battle Ox, and he drew two more cards.
“… next…” he took three cards from his hand and discarded them, revealing they were Wolf Axweilder, Vorse Raider, and a Second Minoan Centaur “I’ll discard three monsters to special summon something TRULY powerful!” the three cards appeared in front of him before turning into light, merging together, and forming into… something. As the light died down it revealed a gruesome three headed dragon with purple scales, disproportionately large claws, and stark white mask like faces “Behold my Montage Dragon! It’s attack is equal to the combined levels of the monsters I discarded… and I count fourteen!” Augustus laughed as all three of the dragon’s heads roared (4200/0).
Ryder winced, somebody had either coached his father on what to do or built his deck for him… his dad was obsessed with overwhelming power for sure but he’d never had been clever enough to throw that card into a deck without somebody helping him. Not that did anything to help HIM at the moment. Ryder was snapped out of his thoughts as all three of Montage Dragon’s head’s reared back and a ball of energy started forming in each of their mouths. “Attack his magician with Destruction Montage!!” Augustus shouted as the dragon’s heads whipped forward and the attack flew.
“Go Magical Cylinders!” Ryder shouted as his trap card lifted up and a pair of large, ornately decorated cylinders with question marks on the sides appeared on either side of the Dark Magician “This negates your attack and then launches it right back at you for damage equal to your monsters attack!” he continued as the dragon’s energy attack was sucked into one of the cylinders… and then launched out at full force from the second cylinder, blowing Augustus clean off his feet.
Ryder LP: 8000 Augustus LP: 1300
“Lets fucking see you try that again!!” Augustus snarled as he got back up “I end my turn!!!” he shouted, for once not summoning anything with his Cell Battle card. Ryder meanwhile was doing his best to hide the fact he was sweating bullets as he drew. His whole deck was just one he’d made for fun based around magic tricks, he’d just included the Dark Magician cards because they fit the theme… and right now that fact was showing since he had an utterly dead hand with Dark Magician Girl, Sage’s Stone, and his second Diffusion Wave Motion… even if he tribute summoned the girl and used the Sage’s Stone card it wouldn’t be near enough attack points to beat the dragon “I move Dark Magician to defense mode… and I end my turn.” He said solemnly.
“I draw!!” his dad shouted, turning the card to show a copy of Gladiator Beast Andal before drawing again… and this time showing Gene-Warped Warwolf and drawing once more. He didn’t hit a normal monster this time since he didn’t show it to Ryder and pull another card. But Ryder found out what he DID draw as another Solidarity appeared followed closely by a Warwolf (2000/100) that roared at the card powered it up (2800/100). Not even bothering with an attack name Augustus just pointed and both his monsters tore through Ryder’s like tissue paper. He motioned to end his turn as Cell Battle glowed again and Andal appeared (1900/1500) and roared as he powered up (2700/1500).
Ryder LP: 8500 Augustus LP: 1300
Ryder wasn’t hiding the fact he was worried now… his dad probably didn’t realize it but he’d managed to screw up his plans royally. He knew Augustus would summon more monsters… and he’d planned to tribute his library for Dark Magician Girl, use Sage’s Stone to summon up a second Dark Magician, and then use Diffusion Wave Motion. He’d take damage from the attack that hit Montage Dragon definitely but the other two attacks might have been enough to defeat his dad… now that was impossible and he was quite literally living on whatever his next draw would be. Shutting his eyes tight he muttered a prayer as he pulled his card.
“I play Card Destruction!”
The spell appeared as Ryder discarded all the cards in his hand and drew the same amount while Augustus did the same, looking over his new cards a plan started to form “I summon… my second Royal Magical Library!” the bookshelves rose back up behind him (0/2000) “And then I play Swords of Revealing Light!” suddenly huge swords made of light crashed down around Augustus’s monsters as they froze in place “Now you can’t attack for three turns! And with that I’ll end my turn.” Ryder said as Spell Absorption finished giving him more lifepoints.
Ryder LP: 9500 Augustus LP: 1300
Augustus was frothing at the mouth FURIOUS as he stamped and bellowed as he drew his card, turning it to reveal a Battle Ox and drawing again, this time getting a Wolf Axeweilder and drawing again as Ryder got progressively nervous. He didn’t know if there was another Montage Dragon lurking in his dad’s deck but he was pretty sure if he got a second one out he wouldn’t be able to beat it. Finally after three draws Augustus stopped and summoned another Vorse Raider (1900/1000) which gained points (2700/1000) followed by a last Warwolf at the end of his turn (2000/100) which also gained the bonus (2800/100) giving him a full field of high powered monsters as Ryder nervously drew.
“I summon Skilled Dark Magician!” Ryder called as a figure in priest like black robes with a hood, and armored chest and shoulder pads appeared carrying a staff (1900/1700) “And I’ll move my Library to defense mode… and end my turn.” He said as there was no visible change in his library and Augustus drew his card, not even bothering to check it for Heart of the Underdog before waving for Ryder to take his turn. The teen drew his card, looked at it, and then nodded for his dad to go making the older mon stomp his foot in frustration as he yanked his card “DAMN IT ALL!! JUST GO ALREADY!!” he snarled as the sword finally vanished.
“Gladly… first… I’m playing Monster Reborn to resurrect my Dark Magician!” the spell appeared as the purple garbed spellcaster rose up from the ground no worse for the wear (2500/2100) “Then… I play Mystic Box! It lets me select one monster on your side of the field and one on mine…” two magician styled boxes with three question marked doors on the fronts appeared surrounding Skilled Dark Magician and Montage Dragon… as swords suddenly stabbed through the box that’d hidden Skilled Dark Magician “And it then destroys YOUR monster and gives you mine in its place!” Ryder grinned as the boxes opened revealing the monsters had switched! Leaving Skilled Dark Magician safe on Augustus’s field and Montage Dragon… well… destroyed to put it bluntly.
Augustus made a sound of shock and horror as the attack of all his monsters suddenly dropped back to their base (2000/100) x 2 (1900/1500) (1900/1000) while Ryder grinned “Right, Solidarity only works while you have a single type of monster in your graveyard! With the dragon added its bonus fizzles out!” the hot, hateful glare he got from his father was more than enough to answer that “Now then… I’m going to try to bring this to a close right now! I use my Magical Library’s effect and remove the spell counters on it to draw one card and hope it’s what I need to take you down! The guy who original played Dark Magician always talked about the Heart of the Cards in these situations… I’ll just abridge what he meant. GIVE ME SOMETHING GOOD!”
He yanked the yard off his deck… and slapped it down “I play Magical Formula!” an old spellbook appeared in Dark Magician’s hands “This gives him an extra 700 attack points… and since I know math isn’t your strong suit I’ll spell it out for you! That’s 1300 points more than your Vorse Raider! Now DARK MAGIC ATTACK!!” Dark Magician thrust his hand out and shattered the brutish beast-warrior… as Augustus tore through the blast and charged right at Ryder, head down and horns pointed at him as he screamed in fury “YOU FUCKING LITTLE SHIT! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!” just as the lifepoint counters finished setting down the final tally.

****************
Ryder sat bolt upright in his bed, breathing hard and sweating noticeably despite how cold the dorm room was at this time of year. Shuddering softly his hands moved over his arms, lifting the fur enough he could feel the deep scars on his arms from blocking the last time his dad had charged at him like that… he shuddered to think how much worse it’d been if he hadn’t managed to block. Shaking his head to clear it he pulled the covers back over himself and lay his head on the pillow. Maybe he could have a more pleasant dream this time… perhaps one involving Maddie… he smiled as he drifted off to sleep with a blush on his cheeks.
The End.
In this one my Bouffalant guy finds himself in the arena facing an opponent he's had to face far, FAR too many times in the past... it's a clash of father and son as the magic of the stage meets the brawn of the beast! Who will win? Read to find out!
Anyway enjoy, please fav & comment, and have a great day! =D

PCA Duelist:
Legend of Might vs. Magic“… this must be one of those duelist dreams that have been going around…”

Both mon were glaring at each other with hate and fury and looked quite ready to come to blows… till the arena shook sending them both staggering. Augustus snorted “Damn it… I’d love to teach you your place but the guy who set this up was pretty damn clear on how it’s supposed to go down…” a spiked duel disk that looked like it was made of iron appeared on his arm as a more normal looking model appeared on Ryder’s. The younger bouffalant looked at it for a moment before looking to his father.
“We settle this by dueling then? Fine with me.”
“Good! Lets get your beating started! DUEL!”
“Duel!!”

Next I’ll set a monster and end my turn.” Ryder said as his facedown card materialized. Augustus snorted in disgust as he drew “Let me show you a REAL move!

Vorse Raider leapt forward and swung his weapon… and was thrown back as the monster turned over and three bookshelves rose up behind Ryder (0/2000) “Sorry dad, my Royal Magical Library is a little too tough for you.” Ryder said smirking as Augustus snarled “Well I play my Heart of the Underdog and Two-Man Cell Battle spells!” the two cards appeared as two lamps lit in Royal Magical Library and Ryder’s Spell Absorption glowed. Ryder shrugged “Okay, but I gain 500 lifepoints for each.”
Ryder LP: 9000 Augustus LP: 7900
“So what! I end my turn! And during our end phase Two-Man Cell Battle lets the person who’s turns ending special summon a level 4 normal monster from their hand… so meet my Gladiator Beast Andal!” a large bear wearing purple armor and knuckledusters appeared with a roar (1900/1500) “So take your turn!” he fumed as Ryder drew “Gladly… I’ll play my Dark Magic Curtain!” A red stage curtain with the upper half of a skeleton at the top appeared “By half my lifepoints this card lets me special summon a certain monster from my deck… so give a round of applauds to my decks headliner! The Dark Magician!!”
There was a flurry of energy as the iconic purple robed spellcaster appeard, twirling his long staff for a moment before catching it and crossing his arms, glaring sternly at Augustus (2500/2100). The older mon just snorted “Ugh, why do you waste your time with those worthless card tricks?” he asked as Ryder just ignored him and continued with his move “While I paid half my lifepoints I gain back 500 of them due to Spell Absorption… then since my Library’s gained three spell counters I’ll remove them to draw a card.” He said as the three lights in the library went out and he pulled his card.

“Now since my Curtain prevents me from summoning anymore this turn I’m going to set one card… and have my Magician attacks your Vorse Raider! Dark Magic attack!” he called as the Dark Magician thrust his hand out and made the ugly beast shatter as Augustus winced “And that’s all for my turn… and I don’t have any monster to summon from your cell battle.” Ryder said as his dad drew “Well my Heart of the Underdog activates now anyway! Since I drew a normal monster…” he turned the card around to show Battle Ox “I get to draw again!” he shouted and pulled his card “And I’ll play my spell Solidarity!” he shouted as the spell appeared next to his other two and Ryder’s lifepoints went up again.
Ryder LP: 5500 Augustus LP: 7300
“Now as long as I only have Beast-Warriors in my grave all my Beast-Warriors gain 800 attack!” he shouted as Andal roared and his attack rose (2700/1500) “But I’m gonna tribute him… for my Minoan Centaur!!” the bear shattered and an ugly creature rose in its place. It was a mishmash of several Greek monsters in one. A bull horned human upper torso attached to a goat hooved horse body and carry a huge double bladed axe (1800/1000), it roared as Solidarity powered it up.
“But I’m gonna tribute it to use its ability! Now I can special summon two level four normal Beast-Warrior monsters from my deck! Say hello to my Gene-Warped Warwolfs!” the centaur shattered and two ugly white furred creatures took its place… but they barely looked like wolfs at all. They were bipedal and had four arms along with thick, mane like fur on their heads… the only wolf like parts of them where the wolf-like ears sticking out of their manes. They both roared loudly (2000/100) and the roar only got louder as Solidarity powered them up (2800/100).
“Now they’ll kill that pantywaist of a man of yours! Attack with Savage Mauling!!” the first Warwolf roared and charged at Dark Magician… only for a series of three blue tophats with question marks on them to appear, one of them hiding the Dark Magician as they suddenly shuffled themselves up. Ryder chuckled at the utterly baffled looks on the faces of his father and the warwolfs “This is my Magical Hats trap. It lets me take two magic or trap cards from my deck, set them facedown, set my Dark Magician facedown, and then shuffle the three of them up… so dad, feeling lucky?”
“RIP THE MIDDLE HAT APPART!” Augustus roared as his wolf did just that… revealing a spellbook that immediately shattered “That was my Magic Formula equip spell.” Ryder explained “Usually I equip it to my Dark Magician… but it has the bonus effect of giving me 1000 lifepoints when it’s sent to the graveyard and by battle qualifies.” Augustus bellowed again as Ryder’s lifepoints rose “GET THE LEFT ONE!!” he shouted as his second Warwolf pounced… revealing a second Magic Formula. Ryder honestly laughed as his lifepoints went up again.
Ryder LP: 7500 Augustus LP: 7300
“I end my fucking turn and use Two-Man Cell Battle to special summon my Battle Ox…” Augustus fumed as the large bipedal ox in battle armor carrying an axe appeared (1700/1000) it roared as it gained power (2500/1000) and Ryder drew his card “First… I flip summon my Dark Magician!” the final hat opened up as the magician emerged, smirking softly as he looked to Augustus and wagged one chastising figure making the bouffalant snort in rage. Ryder meanwhile looked over his hand “Okay… first… I play Mystical Space Typhoon letting me destroy one of your spell or trap cards!” the spell appeared and Augustus’s Solidarity shattered as all his monsters attack fell back to their base levels (2000/100) x 2 (1700/1000) and he looked shellshocked.
“Next… I’ll play the card I could have used last turn. Diffusion Wave-Motion! This gets complicated so I’ll explain slowly. First I need to pay 1000 lifepoints to select one level seven or higher spellcaster on my field… namely my Dark Magician. Then he’s the only one of my monsters who can attack this turn… but he can attack ALL of your monsters! Now go Diffusion Wave-Motion!” Ryder shouted as Dark Magician held his staff aloft and a sphere of energy gathered in the tip growing larger before it pulsed and launched three separate waves of power out shatter each of the Beast-Warrior’s one at a time as Augusts groaned and was pushed further back with each blast.
Ryder LP: 8000 Augustus LP: 5500
“Then I’ll use my Magical Library’s effect…” the three lights in his library went out and he drew a card “… and I’ll end it with one card face down, your turn.” Ryder said as his father tore his card off the top of his deck, turning to reveal it was another Vorse Raider and drew another… which was something called a Wolf Axwielder, another normal monster letting him draw again. This time it wasn’t a normal monster apparently as he moved it to his hand “… I play Pot of Avarice!” he snarled as five monsters slipped out of his graveyard, all of them except Battle Ox, and he drew two more cards.
“… next…” he took three cards from his hand and discarded them, revealing they were Wolf Axweilder, Vorse Raider, and a Second Minoan Centaur “I’ll discard three monsters to special summon something TRULY powerful!” the three cards appeared in front of him before turning into light, merging together, and forming into… something. As the light died down it revealed a gruesome three headed dragon with purple scales, disproportionately large claws, and stark white mask like faces “Behold my Montage Dragon! It’s attack is equal to the combined levels of the monsters I discarded… and I count fourteen!” Augustus laughed as all three of the dragon’s heads roared (4200/0).
Ryder winced, somebody had either coached his father on what to do or built his deck for him… his dad was obsessed with overwhelming power for sure but he’d never had been clever enough to throw that card into a deck without somebody helping him. Not that did anything to help HIM at the moment. Ryder was snapped out of his thoughts as all three of Montage Dragon’s head’s reared back and a ball of energy started forming in each of their mouths. “Attack his magician with Destruction Montage!!” Augustus shouted as the dragon’s heads whipped forward and the attack flew.
“Go Magical Cylinders!” Ryder shouted as his trap card lifted up and a pair of large, ornately decorated cylinders with question marks on the sides appeared on either side of the Dark Magician “This negates your attack and then launches it right back at you for damage equal to your monsters attack!” he continued as the dragon’s energy attack was sucked into one of the cylinders… and then launched out at full force from the second cylinder, blowing Augustus clean off his feet.

“Lets fucking see you try that again!!” Augustus snarled as he got back up “I end my turn!!!” he shouted, for once not summoning anything with his Cell Battle card. Ryder meanwhile was doing his best to hide the fact he was sweating bullets as he drew. His whole deck was just one he’d made for fun based around magic tricks, he’d just included the Dark Magician cards because they fit the theme… and right now that fact was showing since he had an utterly dead hand with Dark Magician Girl, Sage’s Stone, and his second Diffusion Wave Motion… even if he tribute summoned the girl and used the Sage’s Stone card it wouldn’t be near enough attack points to beat the dragon “I move Dark Magician to defense mode… and I end my turn.” He said solemnly.
“I draw!!” his dad shouted, turning the card to show a copy of Gladiator Beast Andal before drawing again… and this time showing Gene-Warped Warwolf and drawing once more. He didn’t hit a normal monster this time since he didn’t show it to Ryder and pull another card. But Ryder found out what he DID draw as another Solidarity appeared followed closely by a Warwolf (2000/100) that roared at the card powered it up (2800/100). Not even bothering with an attack name Augustus just pointed and both his monsters tore through Ryder’s like tissue paper. He motioned to end his turn as Cell Battle glowed again and Andal appeared (1900/1500) and roared as he powered up (2700/1500).

Ryder wasn’t hiding the fact he was worried now… his dad probably didn’t realize it but he’d managed to screw up his plans royally. He knew Augustus would summon more monsters… and he’d planned to tribute his library for Dark Magician Girl, use Sage’s Stone to summon up a second Dark Magician, and then use Diffusion Wave Motion. He’d take damage from the attack that hit Montage Dragon definitely but the other two attacks might have been enough to defeat his dad… now that was impossible and he was quite literally living on whatever his next draw would be. Shutting his eyes tight he muttered a prayer as he pulled his card.
“I play Card Destruction!”
The spell appeared as Ryder discarded all the cards in his hand and drew the same amount while Augustus did the same, looking over his new cards a plan started to form “I summon… my second Royal Magical Library!” the bookshelves rose back up behind him (0/2000) “And then I play Swords of Revealing Light!” suddenly huge swords made of light crashed down around Augustus’s monsters as they froze in place “Now you can’t attack for three turns! And with that I’ll end my turn.” Ryder said as Spell Absorption finished giving him more lifepoints.

Augustus was frothing at the mouth FURIOUS as he stamped and bellowed as he drew his card, turning it to reveal a Battle Ox and drawing again, this time getting a Wolf Axeweilder and drawing again as Ryder got progressively nervous. He didn’t know if there was another Montage Dragon lurking in his dad’s deck but he was pretty sure if he got a second one out he wouldn’t be able to beat it. Finally after three draws Augustus stopped and summoned another Vorse Raider (1900/1000) which gained points (2700/1000) followed by a last Warwolf at the end of his turn (2000/100) which also gained the bonus (2800/100) giving him a full field of high powered monsters as Ryder nervously drew.
“I summon Skilled Dark Magician!” Ryder called as a figure in priest like black robes with a hood, and armored chest and shoulder pads appeared carrying a staff (1900/1700) “And I’ll move my Library to defense mode… and end my turn.” He said as there was no visible change in his library and Augustus drew his card, not even bothering to check it for Heart of the Underdog before waving for Ryder to take his turn. The teen drew his card, looked at it, and then nodded for his dad to go making the older mon stomp his foot in frustration as he yanked his card “DAMN IT ALL!! JUST GO ALREADY!!” he snarled as the sword finally vanished.
“Gladly… first… I’m playing Monster Reborn to resurrect my Dark Magician!” the spell appeared as the purple garbed spellcaster rose up from the ground no worse for the wear (2500/2100) “Then… I play Mystic Box! It lets me select one monster on your side of the field and one on mine…” two magician styled boxes with three question marked doors on the fronts appeared surrounding Skilled Dark Magician and Montage Dragon… as swords suddenly stabbed through the box that’d hidden Skilled Dark Magician “And it then destroys YOUR monster and gives you mine in its place!” Ryder grinned as the boxes opened revealing the monsters had switched! Leaving Skilled Dark Magician safe on Augustus’s field and Montage Dragon… well… destroyed to put it bluntly.
Augustus made a sound of shock and horror as the attack of all his monsters suddenly dropped back to their base (2000/100) x 2 (1900/1500) (1900/1000) while Ryder grinned “Right, Solidarity only works while you have a single type of monster in your graveyard! With the dragon added its bonus fizzles out!” the hot, hateful glare he got from his father was more than enough to answer that “Now then… I’m going to try to bring this to a close right now! I use my Magical Library’s effect and remove the spell counters on it to draw one card and hope it’s what I need to take you down! The guy who original played Dark Magician always talked about the Heart of the Cards in these situations… I’ll just abridge what he meant. GIVE ME SOMETHING GOOD!”
He yanked the yard off his deck… and slapped it down “I play Magical Formula!” an old spellbook appeared in Dark Magician’s hands “This gives him an extra 700 attack points… and since I know math isn’t your strong suit I’ll spell it out for you! That’s 1300 points more than your Vorse Raider! Now DARK MAGIC ATTACK!!” Dark Magician thrust his hand out and shattered the brutish beast-warrior… as Augustus tore through the blast and charged right at Ryder, head down and horns pointed at him as he screamed in fury “YOU FUCKING LITTLE SHIT! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!” just as the lifepoint counters finished setting down the final tally.

****************
Ryder sat bolt upright in his bed, breathing hard and sweating noticeably despite how cold the dorm room was at this time of year. Shuddering softly his hands moved over his arms, lifting the fur enough he could feel the deep scars on his arms from blocking the last time his dad had charged at him like that… he shuddered to think how much worse it’d been if he hadn’t managed to block. Shaking his head to clear it he pulled the covers back over himself and lay his head on the pillow. Maybe he could have a more pleasant dream this time… perhaps one involving Maddie… he smiled as he drifted off to sleep with a blush on his cheeks.
The End.
