''Ladies first Kaiba, I draw, first im summoning my *Amazoness Fighter* in attack mode.''
[Amazoness Fighter]
[Effect Monster]
[Attack: 1500]
[Defence: 1300]
''I place 1 card facedown, over to you Kaiba.''
Kaiba looked at Mai with disappointment, ''Is that all? hmph i´m not impressed, for a duelist coming this far in the tournement, i thought it would be more challenging,''
Mai looked at kaiba with anger, ''Speak all you want Kaiba, in the end tho, i´m the one who gonna defeat you in your own tournement!''
Kaiba looked at Mai with amusment, ''Is that so? well then, let me show you how wrong you are, I draw! first i activate my *Thunder Dragon* special ability from my hand, By discarding him i can add up to 2 *Thunder Dragon's* from my deck to my hand.''
''Hmm? what will that do? you just adding 2 more cards that cannot be summon this turn?''
Kaiba looked at Mai with a smirk, ''Let me show you, I activate my magic card, *Polymerization* i fuse my 2 *Thunder Dragon´s* together to fusion summon, *Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon*.''
[Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon]
[Fusion Normal Monster]
[Attack: 2800]
[Defence: 2100]
Mai wasn´t worried, she know´s that fusion monster cannot attack the turn they are fusion summoned to the field.
''I also activate this magic card, *Quick Attack*, this card allows my fusion monster to attack even if it is the first turn it was summoned.''
Everyone was looking at Kaiba´s fusion monster and was in awe, ''Is that true Yugi?''
Yugi nodded, ''Yeah, Quick Attack allows any fusion monster to attack the first turn it´s summoned which is not good for Mai.''
''Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon! Attack Amazoness Fighter! Twin Thunder Strike!''
The two headed dragon charged his attack with their horn and was ready to strike Amazoness Fighter.
''Hold it Kaiba, i have a facedown card, *Mirror Wall*, This cut every monster that attack any monster or me´s Attack point´s by half.''
Joey was excited ''Oh yeah!!! That means that Mai´s monster is now stronger then Kaiba´s!''
Tea cheered, ''You go Mai!''
Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon: [Attack: 2800 - 1400 = 1400ATK]
Kaiba´s monster was about to clash with the amazon, ''hold it, i activate my quick magic card from my hand, *De-Fusion* This card allows me to defuse my monster and summon the monster that summoned the fusion monster, come out my 2 Thunder Dragons.''
2x [Thunder Dragon]
[Effect Monster]
[Attack: 1600]
[Defence: 1500]
''I then place 1 card facedown, I end my turn.''
Mai [4000LP] [Hand: 4]
Kaiba [4000LP] [Hand: 2]
Kaiba then looked at Mai, ''Did you forgot something? are you gonna keep your *Mirror Wall* or not?'
Mai looked at her Mirror Wall card, she didn´t keep it on the field, the cost was to high.
''Yugi, why did Mai get rid of her trap card?.''
''Well Tea, In order to keep Mirror Wall on the field she needs to pay 2000LP every turn.''
Everyone looked at Yugi with shock, Mai did the right thing, why keep the trap card when the cost is to high.''
''My turn then. Look out!!! I draw, I summon my *The Unfriendly Amazon*, in attack mode.''
[The Unfriendly Amazon]
[Effect Monster]
[Attack: 2000]
[Defence: 1000]
''Yeah!!! Attack him Mai, defeat rich boy!'''
''Joey be quite, Im trying to focus, now where were we? oh yeah, The Unfriendly Amazon attack Thunder Dragon on the right!''
Kaiba smiled, ''You activated my trap, *Shadow Spell* This card locks your monster in place but not only that, it loses 700 attack points.''
The Unfriendly Amazon Attack: [2000 - 700 = 1300ATK]
''Oh no!''
Kaiba sneered, ''Oh yes, Now you have 2 usless monster on the field, Seriously i thought a Duelist Kingdom finalist would give me a challenge, but guess i was wrong.´´
''Urgh, I place 1 card facedown, i end my turn.''
Ryze was impressed, with how everything going Kaiba is an advantage, and with his signature Blue-eyes White Dragon in his deck, not to mention his god card Obelisk The Tormentor too, Mai will have a tough time.
''My turn then, i draw! first i activate the magic card, *Mystical Space Typhoon*, This card allows me to destroy one magic or trap card on the field and i choose your facedown.''
A small typhoon hit Mai´s facedown leaving with no protection for her monster and herself.
''I´m not done yet, Im summoning my *Vorse Raider* In attack mode!''
[Vorse Raider]
[Normal Monster]
[Attack: 1900]
[Defence: 1200]
''*Thunder Dragon* on the right attack her *Amazoness Fighter*.''
Lightning came from Thunder Dragon´s mouth and was directed at Amazoness Fighter and destroeyd her.
''I know that *Amazoness Fighter* special ability is that when you take damage with battle of *Amazoness Fighter*, The Damage turns to zero, Now Thunder Dragon on the left attack *The Unfriendly Amazon*.
The second Thunder Dragon destroyed the other monster with ease.
[1600 - 1300 = 300 - 4000 = 3700LP]
''Vorse Raider attack her directly.''
Vorse Raider charges at Mai and slashed her with his axe.
''Ugh!''
[1900- 3700 = 1800LP]
Everyone shouted at Mai´s name worried about her.
''Your turn, I don´t have all day.''
Mai [1800LP] [Hand: 3]
Kaiba [4000LP] [Hand: 1]
''This is not over Kaiba, I draw! First i activate my magic card, *Graceful Charity'' This allows me to draw 3 card, as long as i discard 2.''
Mai drew her 3 card and was suprised with what she drew, she smiled and discarded 2 cards.
''First Kaiba, i activate my magic card *Monster Reborn* This card allows me to resurrect 1 monster from either of our graveyard and i use it on a monster i discarded not long ago, Come forth *Harpie Pet´s Dragon*!''

{Normal Monster}
{Attack: 1300}
{Defence: 1400}
''I also equip *Harpie Lady with *Cyber Shield* this card gives my *Harpie Lady* 500 attack Points, and since i have a *Harpie Lady* on the field, my *Harpie Pet´s Dragon also gains 500 attack for each Harpie Lady on the field.''
Harpie Lady: [1300 + 500 = 1800ATK]
Harpie Pet´s Dragon: [2000 + 500 = 2500ATK]
Serenity was happy, ''This means Mai´s monster is stronger then Kaiba´s, Right Joey?''
''Yeah, You go Mai!''
Mai attacked Kaiba´s Thunder Dragon and Vorse Raider leaving him with only 1 monster on the field.
[1800 - 1600 = 200 - 4000 = 3800LP]
[2500 - 1900 = 600 - 3800 = 3200LP]
''Not so tough now are you Kaiba, I end my turn.''
Kaiba was not impressed, to him this was just a distraction from the real duels.
''Well then my turn, i draw! I activate my magic card *Card Of Demise!* This card allows me to draw untill i have 5 cards in my hand, but in 5 turns i discard my entire hand, but it won´t take that long.''
Kaiba looked at his hand and was laughing, ''Hahahahaha, First i summon my *Lord Of D* in attack mode!''
{Lord Of D}
{Effect Monster}
{Attack: 1200}
{Defence: 1100}
Yugi relised what was about to happen, Kaiba did this when they fought the rare hunter in a tag duel in battle city, ''This is not good.''
Joey looked at Yugi with suprise, ''What do you mean Yugi?''
before Yugi could respond, Ryze responded instead, ''If Lord Of D is put, that could only mean that Kaiba has *The Flute Of Summoning Dragon* in his hand, which is not good for Mai.''
''What!?'' Everyone responded.
''I activate *The Flute Of Summoning Dragon*, if i have *Lord Of D* out on my side of the field, i can activate this magic card, this card allows me to special summon 2 dragon monster from my hand, I summoning my *Hyozanryu* and my *Blue-Eyes White Dragon* from my hand in attack mode!''
{Hyozanryu}
{Normal Monster}
{Attack: 2100}
{Defence: 2800}
Two shiny dragons appears on Kaiba´s side on the field, one with full of diamonds and one that everyone knows as the legendary white dragon.
{Blue-Eyes White Dragon}
{Normal Monster}
{Attack: 3000}
{Defence: 2500}
Ryze was feeling excited, to see *Blue-Eyes White Dragon* with his very own eyes, to him this was waking up childhood dreams but everything felt so real.''
''I´m sure you know Mai Valantine, that this duel is over! *Hyozanryu* Attack *Harpie Lady* with diamond dust attack!''
With a shivering roar, The diamond dragon attacks Harpie Lady with a blizzard and destroyes her.
[2100 - 1800 = 300 - 1800 = 1500LP]
''And becase your *Harpie Lady* is destroyed, your Pet loses it´s attack points.''
Harpie Pet´s Dragon: [2500- 500 = 2000ATK]
''Blue-Eyes White Dragon* Attack her´s *Harpie Pet´s Dragon* with White Lightining Attack!!!*
Blue-Eyes attack with it´s signature White Lightning from it´s mouth and shoots it at Mai´s Dragon.
''Urgh!!!''
[3000 - 2000 = 1000 - 1500 = 500LP]
''Finish her *Thunder Dragon!*''
Mai was feeling despair, she could do nothing to stop Kaiba´s attacks, she knew she lost.
Mai: [1600 - 500 = 0LP]
''The Winner of the Second Duel is, Seto Kaiba!!!''
Everyone was running towards Mai, ''Mai are you okay?''
Mai felt depressed and angry, ''What do you think Joey?''
''Right dumb question.''
Kaiba was about to leave but Mai shouted at him.
''Where are you going Kaiba, According to the rules, you take my rarest card!''
Kaiba sneers, ''I don´t need anything from your deck so you should be feeling lucky that im not taking anything from you.''
Mai was feeling even more angry, to her that means that Kaiba didn´t think any card in her deck was worth grabbing.
''Don´t listen to him Mai, You did great.''
''Yeah Mai, I know you can beat him next time.''
Mai was starting to feel alittle bit better, her friend cheering her on was very comforting.
''Seto can you hear me?''
Kaiba was listening through his ear phones, ''Im listening Mokuba.''
''We finished reading the test of Ryze Minato´s God card, *The Wicked Eraser*.''
Kaiba responded with a nod, ''(Im on my way Mokuba), Dueslist before the third round starts you have 1 hour break, make it count.''
Everyone started to go their separate rooms untill Yugi wanted to talk to Ryze.
''Ryze, do you have a moment?''
Ryze knew that Yugi wanted to talk to him, I mean, who wouldn´t when appear with a god card outside of the Egyptian gods.
''Sure, what do you want to talk about?''
Yugi´s Millenium Puzzel shined and Yami Yugi appeard.
Ryze noticed Yugi´s form changing when the puzzeld shined and knew that the Pharaoh wanted to speak.
''Ryze, Who are you?''
Ryze looked at Yami Yugi with suprise and then started to laugh, ''Hahaha, Oh Yugi, im Ryze? did you forget?''
Yami looked at Ryze with a serious face which made Ryze stopped laughing,'' *Sigh* so who is wondering might i ask? is it you Yugi? or the ancient spirit of the pharaoh himself?''
Yami and Yugi looked at Ryze with shock! ''So you know that im an ancient spirit, so who are you? are you working for Marik!!!''
Now Ryze was shocked, Did they really think that he was working with Marik?
''Oh Pharaoh, Im not your enemy, think of me as an ally? im still your friend.''
The Pharaoh was looking at Ryze like he didn´t belive him, ''How can i be sure that your not our enemy? Deceit is part of Marik´s evil scheme!''
Ryze was puzzled, he knew that he was right that Marik is very clever with his schemes, even using his friend to get to him.
''Well....''
Oh hey, a Cliffhanger.
