Fate’s Seal (6)

[At the center of Domino City…]

            “Master Marik, as your sworn protector, we must stick together,” warned Odeon.

            “So you’re a protector are you? What do you protect?

            “I protect and serve my master, Marik,” answered Odeon.

            “I protect the pharaoh’s tomb,” added Marik.

            “That’s very interesting. I also protect tombs. I’m Gravekeeper’s Chief,” said Chief.

            “I’ve heard of you. There’s a bunch of monsters Pegasus created specifically around the idea of protecting the tomb,” stated Marik.

            “That’s right and you, my friend, have  been interfering with our duties as Gravekeeper’s,” said Chief.

            “How so? Our family has been protecting the Pharaoh’s tomb for well over 5000 years,” protested Marik.

            “We go back centuries more. You must now face your punishment, that is, unless you can defeat me in a duel,” replied Chief.

            “Bring it on, I have my entire family with me in spirit!” announced Marik.

            “So do I but only partially in spirit. I have the others right here,” stated Chief.

            “The first move will be mine as I play Gil Garth (1800) in Attack Mode. Then I set 1 card face down to end my turn,” proclaimed Marik. (4)

            “Not a bad start but I doubt it can handle my Necrovalley Field Spell. With it in play, Gravekeeper’s monsters get 500 ATK and DEF. Plus neither player can target cards in the Graveyard or remove them from play except for their own effect. Now then I play Gravekeeper’s Spear Soldier (2000) in Attack Mode. Spear Soldier, take out his Gil Garth! *Gil Garth is destroyed and Marik’s LPs drop to 7800* I’ll set 2 cards face down to end my turn,” said Chief. (2)

            “I activate Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy Necrovalley! *Necrovalley is destroyed and Spear Soldier’s ATK returns to 1500* Next I play Gravekeeper’s Spy (2000) in Defense Mode and set 1 card face down to end my turn,” said Marik. (2)

            “Rest assured that you haven’t seen the end of Necrovalley. I’ll simply discard Gravekeeper’s Commandant to pick up another Necrovalley card and I think I’ll play it. *Spy’s DEF rises to 2500* Next I use Rite of Spirit to bring my Commandant back and due to its own effect, it’s not affected by Necrovalley! *Commandant appears with 2100 ATK* Next I tribute both my monsters for Gravekeeper’s Visionary (2500) in Attack Mode and he gets another 200 ATK for all my Gravekeeper’s in my Grave. *Visionary’s ATK rises to 3100* Visionary, destroy his Gravekeeper’s Spy!” proclaimed Chief.

            “I activate Nightmare Wheel, putting your Visionary’s attacks on hold and dealing you 500 damage  with each of my Standby Phases,” announced Marik.

            “I end my turn,” concluded Chief. (1)

            “First off, you’re down 500 LPs due to Nightmare Wheel. *Chief’s score drops to 7500* Next I tribute your 2 monsters for Lava Golem (2500) in Defense Mode on your side of the field, ridding the field of Nightmare Wheel. *Nightmare Wheel is destroyed* I can only set monsters this turn so I set 1 monster and end my turn,” stated Marik. (0)

            “I draw and I’ll make you feel the wrath of your own monster. *His LPs drop to 6500* What is the meaning of this? First you tribute my monsters and now you’re dealing me 1000 damage?” questioned Chief.

            “First off, Lava Golem can only be brought out the first time around the way I did and second, the 1000 damage is your drawback for having such a powerful monster on the field,” explained Marik.

            “It matters not for I’ll rid the field of your last line of defense. I summon Gravekeeper’s Descendant (2000) in Attack Mode. Next I switch Lava Golem to Attack Mode. Descendant, destroy his face down monster!" stated Chief after drawing his card. *The face down Newdoria (800) is destroyed*

            “Due to Newdoria’s effect, I can destroy any monster on the field and that will be the end of Lava Golem!” declared Marik. *Lava Golem is destroyed*

            “Not bad for a tomb keeper but you will face your punishment soon enough. I end my turn,” said Chief. (1)

            “I draw, then set 1 card face down to end my turn. I’ll prove that I’m a tomb keeper!” said Marik. (0)
