| Into the Hornet's Nest | |||
| As the boat arrived at Duelist Kingdom, everyone was suprised at how big the island was. The four got off the ship with out any problems. The guards did not check if Tea and Tristin had star chips. The four headed off towards Pegasus's castle. Tea spotted Bakura again in the woods, but she said nothing. After everyone had gathered around Pegasus's castle, Pegasus came out onto his balcony. He greeted everyone and then told them that the winner of the tournament would be crowned King of Games. Pegasus then explained that each duelist had a duel glove and 2 starchips. Each duelist must duel others and bet their starchips. If they lost all their starchips they were disqualified and if they received 10 starchips they would be allowed to enter Pegasus's castle and duel in the final rounds. Pegasus then told everyone there were some new rules that they should quickly learn if they wanted to win. Duellists began to prepare their decks. Joey was concerned that he wasn't good enough to win 10 starchips so he gave Yugi back his starchip. Yugi didn't accept it and told Joey to keep it. One hour later, Yugi decided his first opponent should be Weevil. Yugi and his friends chased Weevil into the forest. Suddenly the ground began to shake and duelling arensa rose from the ground everywhere on the island. Weevil then told Yugi that he had fallen for his trap. Yugi told Weevil to bet both his starchips while he bet his one and his deck. Weevil started the duel by playing Killer Needle. Yugi summoned Mammoth Graveyard. Mammoth Graveyard attacked Killer Needle but only Mammoth Graveyard was destroyed. It should have been a stalemate but then Weevil told Yugi about the field power bonuses. Suddenly Weevil's Killer Needle disappears and Yugi explains that his Mammoth Graveyard also recieved a field power bonus from the Wasteland field. Weevil then played Hercules Beetle. Yugi played Feral Imp with the Horn of the Unicorn. The Feral Imp is then destroyed by Hercules Beetle. Weevil explained to Yugi that any monster with a field power bonus has a resistance against magically enhanced attacks. Yugi played another monster face down. Weevil summoned his Basic Insect and powered him up with a Level 3 Laser Cannon and a Level 2 Power Boost. Basic Insect destroyed Yugi's face down monster. Yugi played another face down monster, but that is destroyed as well. Weevil then played a face down trap card. Yugi summoned his Dark Magician in defence mode and he played one trap face down. Basic Insect attacked the Dark Magician but Yugi activated Mirror Force to destroy all of Weevil's monsters. Weevil set another monster in defence mode. Yugi played Monster Recovery. Yugi summoned Kuriboh and attacks, but Kuriboh is destroyed as Weevil activated Cocoon of Evolution on his face down Larvae Moth. He explained to Yugi that in 5 turns he will have the ultimate monster on the field. Yugi summoned Gaia the Fierce Knight and attacked the cocoon, but the attack was deflected thanks the the field power bonus. As the cocoon begins to grow Yugi summons Curse of Dragon and equips it with the Burning Land magic card. Curse of Dragon attacks and destroys the forest surrounding the cocoon. Gaia the Fierce Knight then destroyed the cocoon. Unfortunately the Larvae Moth had reached its fourth stage of evolution. It was now a Great Moth. Yugi used Polymerization to create Gaia the Dragon Champion. As Gaia is preparing to attack Yugi notices it is getting weaker and weaker thanks to poison that is in the air. Yugi quikly activates Makiou, the Magical Mist but the damage has already been done. Great Moth destroys Gaia. Yugi then summoned Summoned Skull. Though it is usually weaker than the Great Moth is gained a power bonus from the wet field. Summoned Skull destroyed Weevil's Great Moth, reducing Weevil's life points to zero. Yugi then took Weevil's star chips and Joey took Weevil's glove. |
