            “Time to send another of your monsters to your Graveyard,” said Raphael. I play Morale Boost! It gives the controller that plays an Equip Spell 1000 points but if that Equip Spell is destroyed, that player takes 1000 damage. I equip Guardian Eatos with my face down Blast with Chain, giving her 500 more ATK and since it becomes an Equp Spell when activated, my LPs get a boost! Guardian Eatos’ ATK rises to 4600 while his LPs rise to 5100. Guardian Eatos, destroy Aqua Dolphin! Aqua Dolphin and Celestial Sword are destroyed while Eatos’ ATK rises to 5200 and Raphael’s LPs drop to 4100. That ends my turn. (1)

            “Alright, my draw,” said Jaden I’d better make it count or I’m losing my soul! I play Necro Gardna (1300) in Defense Mode and leave it at that. (0)

            “Your Bubbleman is no more!” said Raphael. I play Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce, which by discarding 1 card, reduces Eatos’ ATK by 500 and lets her attack twice. Eatos’ ATK drops to 4700 and his LPs rise to 3500. Eatos, destroy his Sparkman and Bubbleman! Sparkman and Bubbleman are destroyed while Eatos’ ATK rises to 6300. Arsenal Summoner, attack directly! Jaden’s LPs drop to 4800.

            “Thanks to Bubble Rod’s effect, I can draw a card,” said Jaden.

            “I end my turn,” said Raphael. (5)

            “Deck don’t fail me now!” said Jaden to himself. I need a card here and now! I play Card Trooper (0400) in Defense Mode and use his effect, which by sending the top 3 cards in my deck to my Grave, he gets 1500 more ATK! Card Trooper’s ATK rises to 1900.

            “Since Neos is in your Graveyard, my Eatos gains another 2500 more ATK!” said Raphael. Eatos’ ATK rises to 12,200.

            “He won’t remain for long for I play Fifth Hope, returning my 5 Elemental Heroes to my deck and I shuffle my deck and draw twice!” said Jaden. He shuffles his deck and puts it back into his duel disk. Oh and without those 5 Heroes, your monster loses some major ATK! Eatos’ ATK drops to 3900. Next, I play The Flute of Summoning Kuriboh, bringing out Winged Kuriboh (0200) in Defense Mode from my deck. Then I throw down a face down and leave it at that. (1)

            “Time to end this!” said Raphael. Eatos, destroy his Card Trooper! Card Trooper is destroyed.

            “When Card Trooper’s destroyed, I get to draw a card!” said Jaden.

            “Doesn’t matter because you’re through!” said Raphael. Eatos, finish off his fuzz ball!

            “I activate my face down, Transcendent Wings!” said Jaden. By tossing out 2 cards in my hand and sending Winged Kuriboh to my Grave, I can play Winged Kuriboh LV10 (0200) in Defense Mode!

            “All that for a monster as weak as his former self?” asked Raphael. You’ll regret that! Eatos, destroy his Level 10 Fuzz Ball!

            “Big mistake!” said Jaden. I activate my LV10’s effect, which by tributing him destroys all your Attack Position monsters and deals you damage equal to their ATK(s)! Eatos, Blast with Chain, Twin Swords,  and Arsenal Summoner are destroyed while Raphael’s LPs drop to 0. That’s game! The seal shrinks around Raphael and takes his soul while his body collapses. Jaden’s Bio-Band activates and he collapses. Elsewhere…

            “Seems like Raphael failed,” said Dartz. Valon, go find Syrus and duel him!

            “I won’t fail, master Dartz,” said Valon. He should be no match for me! He races off. Meanwhile…

            “Anyone seen Jaden?” asked Alexis.

            “Nope, I haven’t seen sergeant Jaden anywhere,” said Hassleberry. We’d better call for backup.

            “Good thinking, Hassleberry,” said Syrus. Maybe the other students have seen him.

            “I’m not a student but I found ya, mate,” said Valon.

            “Who are you?” asked Syrus.

            “The name’s Valon it’s time that we duel, Truesdale,” said Valon.

            “Fine,” said Syrus.

            “I’ll start with The Seal of Oreichalkos!” said Valon. With this card in play, neither player can leave the duelin’ field until the duel is over. It also gives my monsters a 500 ATK boost and lets me hold up to 10 monsters in play at once. Next I summon Psychic Armor Head (0500) in Attack Mode. Then I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (3)

            “I summon Truckroid (1000) in Attack Mode,” said Syrus. Truckroid, destroy his Armor Head!
