CHAPTER 12: The Seduction of the Full Moon

Night fell over the Dueling Academy as the full moon in the sky was the only light to grace the Graveyard field. Allen sat on a headstone waiting to see if any night time duelists were going to appear. Allen looked up to the full moon and stared at it reflecting not only on his dueling experience thus far, but also his life. Allen sensed someone approaching and stood in position. From the trees a voluptuous woman stepped forth. She wore an olive green mini skirt with a slit up the left side, a black tube top, and had wavy, flowing, black hair. He nails were painted the same color as her skirt and lacy black spike heels adorned her feet. She was sporting a duel disk on her arm and her pouty lips smirked as she saw Allen.

“Hello.” She said.

Allen was taken back by this woman’s dark beauty but was able to mutter out a “hello” in response.

“My name is Kouin Kusanagi.” The woman said, “And I am one of the tournament’s eliminators!”

“An eliminator.” Allen said to himself.

“I challenge you to a duel.” Kouin said, “If you lose I take all of your ribbons, and if I lose, you win my ribbon which counts as three ribbons.”

“Three ribbons are all I need to get into the semi-finals.” Allen said, “Let’s duel.”

“Oh, that may be all you’ll need, sweetheart, but that’s not what you are going to get.” Kouin replied, “Duel!”

Kouin stepped into the Graveyard and started up her Duel Disk in the same fashion as Allen, quick and forceful.

Allen=4000 Kouin=4000

“I will begin.” Allen said, “I summon Regenerating Mummy (18000/1500) in attack mode!”

A half developed mummy appeared on the field.

“Now I set one card face down and end my turn.” Allen said.

One face down card appeared behind the mummy.

“I will seduce you, my dear.” Kouin said, “I summon Crimson Temptress (1700/800) in attack mode!”

A pale skinned woman who was wearing tight black leather pants and a black leather top with long crimson hair appeared on the field. The clothes were fit so tightly it was almost unimaginable that the monster was able to move. In her hand was a whip made out of a green vine and thorns were still present on it.

“I now play the field spell card, Seductive Melody!” Kouin said.

The grass in the graveyard turned into red velvet and a seductive beat began to pound through the area.

“This card allows for me to tribute one monster on my side of the field to take control of one of your monsters for two turns.” Kouin said. “I tribute Crimson Temptress to take control of your Regenerating Mummy!”

The temptress strutted over to the mummy and rubbed up against it. The zombie took her hand and the Temptress led it over to Kouin’s side of the field. When the monsters got there the Temptress screeched and shattered from the field. The zombie wept in the monsters place and stayed on Kouin’s side of the field.

Allen shuddered as he remembered a familiar scene.

“Now, Regnerating Mummy, attack Allen’s Life Points!” Kouin ordered.

The half developed mummy soared over the field and mummy wrappings encased Allen.

Allen=2200 Kouin=4000

“I will seduce you.” Kouin said. “I end my turn.”

Meanwhile Allen was falling under this beautiful woman’s spell. The setting, the music, and Kouin’s appearance were all working their magic on Allen.

“Stay focused.” Allen said to himself, “You can’t let her get the best of you.”

“Have I seduced you already?” Kouin said, “Unable to make a move, dear?”

“You, ugly tramp!” a voice screeched. “You are trying to steal my Allen!”

Allen and Kouin both turned and saw a very distraught Shibai watching the duel.

“Oh no.” Allen said to himself.

“You are trying to steal my one true love!” Shibai said, “My Allen!”

“Oh, well I was unaware that Allen was…”Kouin said before she was cut off.

“I’m not!” Allen said, “He’s just obsessed with me.”

“I can’t help myself, love.” Shibai said, “Love has led me to you and we are destined to be together. You have to win this duel so this ***** can leave you alone and we can be together in the semi-finals.”

“You mean that you…” Allen said before being cut off.

“Yes, I made it into the semi-finals!” Shibai said cheerfully, “What did you expect me to do when the only way I could be with you again was to get into the semi-finals?”

“Well excuse me, dear, but Allen is already entranced by my seduction.” Kouin said. “There’s nothing you can do!”

“Well Allen will win and prove his love for me!” Shibai said.

“I may very well throw this duel just so that Shibai doesn’t think I love him.” Allen thought to himself sarcastically.

“Well let’s see if Allen is willing to duel for his love.” Kouin said with a giggle.

“Enough!” Allen shouted, “I summon Pyramid Turtle (1200/1400)!”

A large turtle with a pyramid on its back appeared on the field.

“Now I play the Field Spell card, Mystic Plasma Zone!”

The red velvet and the seductive tones ceased and the field was covered with rolling black clouds as lightning hit the field.

“This card increases the attack of all Dark monsters by 500 and lowers their defense by 400.” Allen explained. “Now Kouin, feel the power of my seduction, the Spell card, Creature Swap!”

The Mummy began to glow with white energy as did the Pyramid Turtle. Suddenly, the two monsters vanished from the field and then reappeared on the opposite of the fields.

“My Regenerating Mummy’s attack is increased by Mystic Plasma Zone and it is now 2300.” Allen said, “Regenerating Mummy, attack Pyramid Turtle.”

The Zombie sent forth its wrappings that encased the Turtle which shattered from the field.

Allen=2200 Kouin=2900

“Now since I destroyed my Pyramid Turtle, I can Special Summon a Zombie with a Defense of 2000 or less from my deck to the field.” Allen said, “I summon Ryu Kokki (2400/2000)!”

The large bone ogre appeared on the field on all fours. Purple smoke came from its nostrils and moans could be heard all over the Graveyard field.

“The effects of my Mystic Plasma Zone powers up my Ryu Kokki by 500 points, making its attack 2900!” Allen shouted, “Ryu Kokki, direct attack!”

The large beast fired a beam of black energy at Kouin and suddenly the Regenerating Mummy appeared in front of Kouin and took the blast as dust and wrappings fell all over the field.

“I activate my trap, Seductive Offerings” Kouin said, “By paying half of my life points I can take control of one of your monsters during the Battle Phase and any overflow damage is dealt to you instead of me!”

Allen=1600 Kouin=1450

“I end my turn.” Allen said.

“You can do it, love!” Shibai shouted from the side of the field.

“We had a deal!” Allen shouted. “You weren’t supposed to talk to me till semi-finals.”

“But I could let this wench come in and take you from me!” Shibai said.

“I wasn’t ever yours to begin with!!!!” Allen shouted.

“Um, can I take my turn?” Kouin asked.

Allen and Shibai both looked at Kouin.

“Gosh, and she’s pushy too.” Shibai said.

“Go ahead, please!” Allen said as if he was begging. “Please shut him up.”

“I play the Spell card, Snatch Steal on your Ryu Kokki!” Kouin said.

The large bone beast was surrounded by crimson light and walked over to Kouin’s side of the field.

“Now, it’s over Allen.” Kouin said, “Shibai, I stole him!”

“You bit…” Shibai said before getting cut off.

“Ryu Kokki, attack!” Kouin said.

The large beast attacked with a black beam of darkness. Suddenly its attack was intercepted by a large tombstone that appeared on the field in front of Allen.

“I activate my trap, Death’s Recourse” Allen said, “I can only activate this card when a monster with 2000 attack points or more attacks my Life Points directly and I have no other cards on the field. The attack is negated and the monster is destroyed, then half of its attack points are deducted from your Life Points!”

The large Zombie exploded showering down bones on the field.

Allen=1600 Kouin=0

“I win.” Allen said. “Now give me that ribbon”

“Take that you boy stealer!” Shibai shouted from the side of the field.

Kouin fell to her knees in shock. Allen slowly walked over to her.

“You beat me.” Kouin said as she came to one knee and removed a crimson ribbon from her upper thigh. “Take this.”

Suddenly, Shibai ripped the ribbon from Kouin’s hand and leapt at Allen with his arms open. Allen plainly checked Shibai to the ground and took the ribbon.

“I see!” Shibai said, “You are a rough lover!”

“Thank you, Kouin.” Allen said ignoring Shibai, “Your deck is surely powerful.”

“Thank you.” Kourin said. “A duelist like you will surely go places.”

Shibai scoffed at Kourin and followed Allen as he walked away.

“Allen.” Kourin said to herself, “Why don’t you show your true pain to anyone?”

Allen walked silently out of the graveyard with Shibai following.

“Kouin looked just like her.” Allen said to himself. “It couldn’t be.”

Kouin stood in the abandoned graveyard as the night winds swept through her hair.

“Soon, Allen.” Kouin said, “Soon.”

CHAPTER 13: Covering my Pain

Shibai wandered the halls of the dueling Academy by himself. As far back as Shibai could remember it has always been that way.

“Shibai, dear!” a tall pencil thin woman said, “Me and your father are going out for a banquet, don’t wait for us!”

The tall, double doors slammed shut as Shibai sat on bedroom floor by himself. Shibai never wanted to be considered a burden to anyone so he always gave off a shy and happy exterior. He made sure his clothes were perfectly matched, bright, and sophisticated. In addition he took great care of his exterior since his interior was sad and full of pain.

Shibai attended a private boarding school during the school year in which he had close to no friends. Shibai sat in the back of every class and was always shy refusing to stand up for himself. He would always be tormented by the other boys due to his fashion sense.

“Hey, fashion freak!” one of the school boys said, “Did ya match your socks with your underwear today?”

Shibai blushed in front of the entire class and almost everyone in the class giggled.

“Why don’t you leave him alone, you reject.” A tall, dark haired boy said as he stood up, “I’d dare you to say that to someone who would fight back!”

“Chill out, Kiro.” The boy replied, “I was just teasin’ him.”

“Well cut it out.” Kiro replied, “Shibai is my friend.”

Shibai’s eyes widened as Kiro was the first person to ever consider Shibai to be his friend.

Shibai and Kiro became best friends at school and soon became roommates in the school.

The night clouds rolled in on a spring night as a storm was brewing. Shibai and Kiro sat on their beds and were laughing about something silly as they often did. The laughter began to calm down and Shibai realized how lucky he was and how he had begun to fall for Kiro.

“Kiro.” Shibai said as tears began to fill up his eyes.

“What is it, Shi?” Kiro said.

“I just want to thank you so much for being there for me.” Shibai replied as the tears began to run down his face.

“C’mon, man, don’t get all mushy.” Kiro said as he hugged Shibai and patted him on the back as a friendly gesture.

Shibai raised his head and went in for a kiss. Shibai finally got what he had been waiting for, a true love. Or so he thought.

“Get off of me!” Kiro said, “I thought you were straight and I fought for you, but you are just some sex driven, homo!”

“Ki-Kiro, I didn’t mean…” Shibai said as he was cut off with a punch to the face by Kiro.

Kiro dragged Shibai out of the dorm by the back of his hair and caused quite a ruckus, which caught the attention of the other boys. All of the bullies came out of their rooms and saw Shibai bleeding from his nose as Kiro had a handful of Shibai’s hair.

“He tried to kiss me!” Kiro shouted in the hall.

“Let’s get him!” the other boys said.

“Please, put me down!” Shibai begged.

The bullies and Kiro dragged Shibai outside into the pouring rain that encompassed the school. The violently punched and kicked Shibai until Shibai didn’t have enough force left in him to fight back. The boys spat on Shibai and left him in the middle of the field. Shibai’s limp body lie on the wet grass as lightning struck overhead.

Shibai was hospitalized for three months after the incident. He got close to no visitors outside of his parents when it was convenient for them, of course. Shibai was home schooled by a hired tutor after he was released from the hospital.

One Saturday afternoon, Shibai walked into town by himself and saw two people dueling on the street. One of them had a Mystical elf on the field and Shibai was in awe of her elegance and beauty. It was that day that Shibai was inspired to duel.

One year passed by and Shibai had become one of the best duelists around. His fashion deck was fun to watch in action and got Shibai many girl fans. Shibai had progressed to the final round of one of his local tournaments and was unprepared for his final opponent.

“Hey, fashion freak!” a deep voice said.

Shibai turned around to see one of the main bullies that tormented him at his boarding school, Futeki.

“Futeki,” Shibai said as tears filled up his eyes.

“It looks like you made quite the name for yourself around here,” Futeki said, “Let me show you that I can still beat you to the ground.”

Shibai stood on the stage where the final match was to be held and started up his Duel Disk as his arms shook.

Shibai=4000 Futeki=4000

“I’ll start us off, “Futeki said, “I summon, Marauding Captain (1200/400) in attack mode!”

A muscular warrior appeared on the field in knight’s armor.

“Since my Marauding Captain was Normal Summoned, I can special summon one four star or less monster from my hand.” Futeki explained, “I summon Warrior Dai Grepher (1700/1600) in attack mode.”

A muscular warrior with a tight, black, outfit on appeared on the field holding a large sword.

“Now I play, Tremendous Fire!” Futeki said.

Both duelists were surrounded in rings of fire. Shibai’s ring burnt much hotter then Futeki’s as the audience could tell form Shibai’s scream.

Shibai=3000 Futeki=3500

“I will also set one card face down!” Futeki finished, “Your move, pretty boy.”

A face down vertical card appeared behind the warriors.

“I-I d-raw.” Shibai said shakily.

“What’s the matter, Shi?” Futeki said, “We are old buddies, you have nothing to be nervous over. I’d worry more about my monsters beating you down instead of me this time.”

“I-I can’t do this.” Shiabi thought to himself. “I haven’t moved on yet.”

“So are you going to make a move, or what?” Futeki questioned. “Or are you too scared to stand up to even my monsters?

“He’s right.” Shibai said, “All my life I have been too scared to make my own path. I was too scared to tell my parents that I wanted them, I was too scared to be open with Kiro about my feelings, and I’m too scared to stand up to Futeki.”

“Shibai if you don’t make a move I will be forced to disqualify you from the tournament.” The judge said.

“No.” Shibai said outloud, “I won’t be scared anymore!”

The crowd cheered for Shibai as a newfound courage overwhelmed him.

“It’s time for you to kiss the dirt this time, darling!” Shibai shouted out flamboyantly.

“D-darling!?!” Futeki exclaimed, “You little…”

“I summon Gemini Elf (1900/900) in attack mode!” Shibai said cutting off Futeki.

Two elves with flowing hair appeared on the field. They strutted to Futeki’s monsters and greeted them with a wink.

“I activate my trap, Bottomless Trap Hole!” Futeki shouted out.

A large gaping hole appeared underneath the elves and suddenly before they fell the hole was covered with silk cloth.

“I activate my Spell card, Silk Offering!” Shibai shouted. “This card can only be activated form my hand when I have no spells or traps on the field and my opponent activates a Trap card. It allows for me to pay 2000 Life Points to negate and destroy that trap card!”

Shibai=1000 Futeki=3500

“Now I can activate this spell card, Buy one get two free!” Shibai shouted. “This card can only be activated when I pay more then half of my Life Points, I can Special Summon two normal monsters from my deck to the field!”

A cash register appeared on the field and it made a ringing noise as the cash register’s door opened revealing two more sets of Gemini Elves.

“Now, it looks like I have the upper hand.” Shiabi said with a wink. “Now, it’s over, Futeki!”

“You still have two monsters to get through, Shibai!” Futeki shouted.

“Not after I equip my beauties with this, United We Stand!” Shibai shouted.

The six Gemini Elves held hands and the middle pair began to radiate in golden light.

“This card increases my monster’s attack by 800 for each monster on the field. This makes my Gemini Elf’s attack 4300!” Shibai shouted, “Remember this for the rest of your days, Futeki! Gemini Elves attack!”

One pair of elves attacked the Marauding Captain with a kick to the face.

Shibai=1000 Futeki=2800

The second set of elves strutted up to the Warrior Dai Grepher and slapped him multiple ties in the face shattering him from the field.

Shibai=1000 Futeki=2600

“Now, my power up Elves, direct attack!” Shibai ordered.

The golden elves held hands as they sped up to Futeki at light speed. They jumped into the air and kicked Futeki in th efface. Then they spun around and slapped him multiple times, knocking him to the ground.

Shibai=1000 Futeki=0

“Well, well, well, look who got smacked to the ground by some girls.” Shibai said as he approached Futeki.

“The winner is Shibai!” the judge announced as the crowd cheered.

“Don’t ever come near me again.” Shiabai said in a threatening tone to Futeki, “Or my ladies may have to give you another smackdown.”

Shibai reached the main room of the Duel Academy and saw it was adorned with banners and a crowd was already seated. It was the stage for the semi-finals. As Shibai entered the doors the crowd cheered for him.

“Welcome, Shibai!” an announcer said, “To the Duel Academy Semi-Finals!”

Shiabi saw Ryan and Ben standing with their arms crossed on opposite ends of the platform.

“I must be the third.” Shibai said.

“Shibai. It’s been awhile.” a voice said.

A boy standing in an Obelisk Blue uniform was in between Ryan and Ben. The boy was tall and had dark hair and tan features.

Shibai’s eyes opened with amazement and fear, “K-kiro.”
