Summoned Spirit

It was now Winter Break at Duel Academy; most of the students had gone home for the holidays though some had chosen to stay. Though not everyone was having a great time.
"HELP! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME!" An Obelisk Blue boy yelled as he ran through the woods. 
'I can't believe this is happening.' He thought 'I can't believe that he came alive, and took my friends.' The boy then closed his eyes as he ran. "PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME!"
...
While most students had gone home for the holidays, not every student had. In the Obelisk Blue Girl's dorm, Solona and Alexis had chosen to stay at the Academy. Right now both girls were in Solona's dorm room which had her posters of dragons on the walls and her model dragons lying around. Solona was sitting at her desk while Alexis was on Solona's bed.
"So you finished with your new deck?" Alexis asked
"I think I've got the right cards in my deck now." Solona said, because of the threats from the Venatori, Solona had decided to create a new deck to help her. This deck had her Urthemiel card in as well as other support cards. "I just hope that it will be enough for when I face these threats."
"Hey you're a great Duelist Solona." Alexis said and then she looked at the clothes on Solona's bed. "And what are those clothes for?"
"Oh well I err." Solona really couldn't find the words to say without becoming embarrassed
"You're going on a date with Theorn aren't you?" Alexis guessed and Solona blushed, ever since Theorn had helped her against that Dueling Monkey, the two had become closer.
"Well it's not really a date as we're just staying at the Slifer Dorm with Jaden and his friends." Solona replied
"Well who else is going?" Alexis asked
"Well Daylen and Neria are staying as well as Jaden, Syrus, Chumley and Kallian. Aedan, Faren and Sereda have gone home for the holidays." Solona said
...
Meanwhile, Solona's fears were correct as the Venatori were indeed planning something. The Elder one had gathered the leaders of the Venatori which were Samson, Calpernia and Livius.
"So my advisors." The Elder one said. "We need to make our next move."
"Allow me to mend the problems Alexius created." Calpernia said
"Why should you do that?" Livius asked "You were the one who recruited him in the first place."
"Master, allow me to regain my lost honor." Samson insisted
"No!" The Elder one ordered. "I can't risk another card falling into their hands, I already lost Razikale and I cannot lose another. I will deal with the pests myself. Soon Solona Amell will lay defeated and may even become one of us. If force if I have too."
...
Back at Academy Island, Jaden, Syrus, Chumley and Kallian were in the Slifer dorm canteen with professor Banner. Syrus and Jaden were in the middle of a friendly duel while Kallian and Chumley were busy helping Banner with the cooking.
"I can't believe that most people went home for winter break." Jaden muttered
"Well not everyone." Kallian said. "Neria, Theorn, Alexis, Solona and Daylen are staying as well. They're planning to come over here."
"They are?" Chumley questioned
"Yes they are but stay clear of Solona and Theorn, they are planning to have a little date." Kallian replied
"Still the campus feels so empty." Jaden said. "Oh well, all the more dueling for us I guess"
"Yeah and all the more canteen food too." Chumley added
Banner was busy cooking some marshmallows over a fire when one of them expanded too much and exploded into his cat Pharaoh's face. "Yes which makes you wonder why all we've been eating are marshmallows." Banner chuckled
"Well we already ate all of the grilled cheeses." Chumley said
A short while later, Solona and her friends arrived. Solona and Theorn sat in a back corner while they had their little date they planned, or rather just a friendly chat. Neria and Alexis helped Banner with his cooking while Daylen played a little trick on his sister. With a smirk on his face, Daylen took a picture of the date with his camera.
"Daylen what are you doing?" Solona demanded
"Oh I just thought I'll get a little picture of this sweet moment." Daylen said and everyone else laughed "Oh I wonder what mum will think when she finds out you're on a date?"
"Well it's not really a date." Theorn said. "It's more of a friendly chat."
"Yeah, and you're not going to embarrass me so give me that!" Solona ordered and she grabbed the Camera from her brother and was able to delete the photo. Jaden just laughed as he continued his little duel with Syrus and he summoned out his Clayman while Syrus had Gyroid and Cycroid on his field. But everyone was interrupted when they heard a crash and they all turned to the entrance of the Canteen and saw an Obelisk Blue boy with glasses and long brown hair lying on the floor. He looked tired and like he had been running away from something.
Jaden was the one who helped the boy to regain his breath "Hey are you alright?" he asked
The boy gave a few deep breaths and then he looked at Banner and his eyes widened "Professor Banner?" he said and then he looked scared "You were right, everything you said about the spirits was true."
"Professor Banner, you might want to call the School Nurse." Jaden said
Banner looked at the boy. 
"Hey I know you." He said. "You're Torrey, you were in my class when I was talking about Duel Monsters spirits and you asked questioned about them."
"Yes I was there." The boy now known as Torrey said. "People said that Duel Monsters spirits were just stories but I believed them and so did my friends. So we decided that we wanted to see for ourselves and try to communicate with Duel Monster spirits even though the Academy forbid it. So we tried a few times but nothing happened until yesterday. Maybe it was because we used our bed sheets as cloaks or took Dr Crowler's bath candles. But anyway, this time something was different."
"Crowler better not find out you took his bath candles." Daylen said. "He'll be so cross."
Torrey didn't say anything as he remembered what happened.
Flashback:
Torrey and his two friends were in the School library. He and both his friends wore their bed sheets as cloaks and they had Dra Crowler's candles. On the table was an old spirit mystic box which people said could communicate with Duel Monster spirits. The three of them wanted to see if the stories were true.
Then all three of them placed their hands on the spirit box and said the chat "For vapour to flesh. From Wind to a Roar. Come Jinzo from the land of yours." As soon as the chat was finished one of the books fell from the shelf and everything went quiet. Then there was a scraping noise and the three boys looked as the Mystic Box began to spell out words.
Flashback end:
Torrey told them what happened. "And then the Mystic Box spelt out 'Give me three and I'll be free.' We thought that he meant cards." Torrey said
"Oh dear no." Banner said. "Jinzo's appetite would never be filled with mere cards. This is just awful."
"So what did the three mean?" Syrus asked
"It meant people." Torrey said
"People?" Kallian gasped
"Yes and sadly we agreed before we knew better." Torrey said. "Jinzo has already taken my friends. First it was one and then the other. And I know that it's going to be me next."
Solona and Daylen looked at each other. 
"Are you sure that they didn't just go home for Winter Break?" Solona asked
"I hoped that" Torrey said. "But I've called their parents. And they said that they haven't heard from them. I doubt they left anyway because I tried to leave the Island but when I got to the Ferry. He was waiting for me."
Daylen looked around. 
"Well it seems that we're safe here." Daylen muttered to himself.
But he spoke too soon as then the lights went out. 
"Is this just a power cut?" Kallian said
"What's going on?" Syrus begged
"Easy Syrus" Banner said "Maybe it was just a fuse?"
"Or maybe a bolt?" Chumley added
"Or maybe it was me!" A digital voice growled out.
Everyone gasped when they saw the spirit of Jinzo appear before them and he had Torrey over his back.
"Hey let him go Jinzo!" Theorn demanded
"Sorry, but we had a deal." Jinzo growled as he turned and ran with Torrey
"Hey get back!" Jaden yelled as he ran after them
"Jaden wait!" Syrus yelled.
Jaden ran after the spirit of Jinzo and was followed by Solona, Daylen, Syrus, Chumley, Alexis, Kallian and Banner. They ran through the woods as they ignored Chumley's complaining and soon they arrived at a fenced off area which had several metal towers in each corner.
"Where are we?" Kallian asked
"Well by the looks of this place, I say that this is some kind of generator unit." Daylen said
"Yes." Banner replied. "We must be at the power plant for the Island."
"Hey look over there." Jaden called and he pointed to the ground inside the fence and Torrey was lying on the ground. "Torrey, are you alright?"
But then there was a wicked laugh and lightning struck the towers "He can't hear you, he'd mine now." A voice came and the group saw Jinzo who looked like some kind of spirit.
"It's Jinzo." Solona said horrified
"He must be using the power from the generators to power himself." Banner realized
"Okay I don't care who you are but let Torrey and the others go!" Jaden demanded
Jinzo laughed. 
"We had a deal! They agreed and now they pay the price!" Jinzo sneered
"Well deal's off." Jaden said and then he glared "Take me instead!"
"Jaden no!" Alexis yelled. "What are you doing?"
Jinzo laughed. "Fine then! I'll take you as my sacrifice." But when Jinzo tried to take Jaden's dueling spirit, the spirits protected Jaden and repelled Jinzo. "What! It seems that your dueling spirit is strong, so I must weaken it in a Duel!"
"Fine the, if you want a duel, then you've got it!" Jaden growled and he activated his Duel disk while Jinzo just stood there and 5 spiritual cards appeared behind him
"Duel!"
Jaden: 8000
Jinzo: 8000
"I'll go first." Jinzo sneered. "And I'll start by playing the spell card Ectoplasmer, now at the end of our turn, we must sacrifice one monster and then half of that monster's attack points are dealt as damage to the opponent. Now I'll summon Malice Doll of Demise in attack mode." A creepy looking doll holding a large axe which looked like it came from a horror movie appeared on Jinzo's field (Level 4 Attack 1600 Defense 1700) "And now I'll end my turn which means that now I must sacrifice my Doll but now you are dealt damage equal to half my doll's attack points." Ectoplasmer absorbed the Doll and then a spiritual hand reached out and went through Jaden which caused him to groan in pain.
Jaden: 7200
Jinzo: 8000
"Oh man, it's the first move and already Jaden's lost points." Syrus said
"It's worse than that Sy." Alexis said. "Because thanks to that Doll's special ability it will come back on Jinzo's next turn."
"And Jaden may have no monsters thanks to that Ectoplasmer." Solona added
"I'm sure Jaden will be fine." Banner replied
"My move then." Jaden said. "And I'll start by summoning Elemental Hero Sparkman in attack mode." Jaden's lightning warrior appeared on his field. "And since you have no monsters out, Sparkman will attack directly." Sparkman jumped into the air and then he sent a blast of lightning which shocked Jinzo.
Jaden: 7200
Jinzo: 6400
"Then I'll end my turn with a face down and then I'll use Ectoplasmer's effect to sacrifice my Sparkman." Jaden said and Sparkman vanished as Jinzo was dealt more damage
Jaden: 7200
Jinzo: 5800
"Way to play Jaden!" Syrus yelled. "That's how you beat a spirit."
Jinzo laughed. "It's my move now, and since it's my standby phase, my malice doll returns. And then I'll summon Emissary of the Afterlife in attack mode." A dark spirit wearing a cloak appeared and holding a scythe. (Level 4 Attack 1600 Defense 600) "Now both my monsters will attack you directly." Malice doll threw his axe while Emissary flew towards Jaden and they both hit him which caused Jaden to groan in pain.
Jaden: 4000
Jinzo: 5800
"And now Ectoplasmer allows me to deal you more damage by sacrificing my Doll again." Jinzo finished and Jaden was dealt more damage. "Your turn."
Jaden: 3200
Jinzo: 5800
"Oh man, Jaden's lost half his attack points." Syrus said
Then Kallian noticed something horrifying. 
"Jaden, your legs!" she yelled
"Huh" Jaden muttered and then he looked down at his legs and he saw that they were fading. "What in the? What's happening?"
"The Shadow Game is happened." Jinzo sneered. "Since you lost half your life points, I'm taking half your life force, and it feels good."
"Well you're not taking me that's for sure." Jaden said. "I'll start by activating Monster Reborn which allows me to summon back my Sparkman from the graveyard. Then I'll equip him with Spark blaster which allows me to switch your Emissary to defense mode." Sparkman sent out a shock wave which caused the Spirit like monster to float to the ground and lower the Scythe. "And now I'll summon Elemental Hero Clayman in attack mode." Jaden's rock humanoid appeared on the field "And now Clayman will destroy that spirit." Clayman sent a large fist and destroyed the spirit.
"You fool, when Emissary of the Afterlife is destroyed we both select 1 level 3 or lower normal monster from our decks and add then to our hands." Jinzo revealed. "I choose Thousand Eyes Idol."
"Well I choose my old friend Burstinatrix." Jaden said. "And I still have one attack left so go Sparkman, attack him directly." Sparkman then sent a powerful blast from his hand.
Jaden: 3200
Jinzo: 4200
"And now I'll throw one card face down and then activate the spell card Mirage of Nightmare, now on your standby phases, I can draw until I have four cards in my hand but when it's my turn, I have to discard the number of cards I drew. And now I end my turn and sacrifice my Clayman." Jaden said and Clayman vanished and dealt Jinzo more damage
Jaden: 3200
Jinzo: 3800
"That won't help you." Jinzo hissed. "My turn."
"And now my Mirage allows me to draw until I have four cards in my hand." Jaden drew three cards since he still had his Burstinatrix in his hand "But now I play my face down card, Emergency Provisions, now I can destroy my Mirage and gain 1000 life points."
Jaden: 4200
Jinzo: 3800
"Well now my Malice doll returns to the field. And next I summon La Jinn the Mystical Genie of the Lamp in attack mode." A golden lamp appeared on the field and a green spiritual Genie appeared from it. (Level 4 Attack 1800 Defense 1000) "And now La Jinn, destroy that Sparkman." La Jinn sent a poisoned green cloud of gas which went towards Sparkman but Jaden was ready for him
"Sorry Jinzo but I activate my face down card, Draining Shield now your attack is negated and I gain life points equal to your monsters attack points."
Jaden: 6000
Jinzo: 3800
"Well you survived that attack but you won't negate Ectoplasmer because now my Malice doll will hit you again." Jinzo ordered and Ectoplasmer absorbed Malice doll again and hit Jaden.
Jaden: 5200
Jinzo: 3800
"Well it's my turn now." Jaden said. "And I activate Polymerization to fuse Elemental Heroes Sparkman and Burstinatrix to summon Elemental Hero Nova Master." A large fiery monster wearing a red cape appeared on Jaden's field (Level 8 Attack 2600 Defence 2100) "And now my Nova Master will destroy La Jinn." Nova Master sent a powerful fire blast from the cannons on his hands which caused the genie to evaporate into nothing.
Jaden: 5200
Jinzo: 3000
"And now my Nova's ability activates, since I destroyed a monster in battle, I can draw one card." Jaden said and he drew one card. "And I'll now activate the card, Mystical Space Typhoon which will destroy that Ectoplasmer." Jinzo's card shattered. "I end my turn."
"Great." Alexis said. "Now Jaden won't be wide open for attacks."
Jinzo laughed. "You may have destroyed Ectoplasmer but my doll still returns." Malice doll returns."
"That guy is really starting to overstay his welcome." Jaden said
"And now I summon Drillago in attack mode." Jinzo added and a machine monster made of drill appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1600 Defense 1100)
"Uh oh that's not good." Daylen said
"Why?" Kallian asked
"Jaden's Nova Master has more attack points." Chumley added
"That's the problem." Solona replied. "Drillago can attack directly when Jaden only controls monsters with 1600 attack points or more."
"That's right and now my Drillago will attack you directly." Jinzo ordered and Drillago charged at Jaden and his hit him in the chest with his drill."
Jaden: 3600
Jinzo: 3000
"And now I end my turn" Jinzo ordered.
"My turn." Jaden said. "Since there's not much I can do my Nova Master will now destroy that Drillago." Nova master attacked and destroyed Drillago and Jaden drew one card thanks to Nova Master's effect.
Jaden: 3600
Jinzo: 2000
"It's my move now." Jinzo ordered. "And the beginning of your downfall, first I play the spell card Graceful Charity which allows me to draw three cards and then discard two. Next I play Monster Reborn to bring back one of the monsters I discarded, Summoned Skull." A large skeleton like fiend monster appeared on Jinzo's field (Level 6 Attack 2500 Defense 1200) "And now I'll sacrifice my Malice doll in order to summon myself."
"Wait summon yourself?" Jaden questioned
"That's right now I'll entering this duel as well." Jinzo said and he disappeared from his spirit form and appeared on the field. (Level 6 Attack 2400 Defence 1500)
"It doesn't make any sense." Alexis said. "Both of Jinzo's monsters have less attack points that Nova Master?"
"And now I can use the effect of the other card I discarded, Archfiend of Gilfer, when he's sent to the graveyard, I can equip him to one of your monsters and it loses 500 attack points."
"Say what?" Jaden gasped and Nova Master lost 500 attack points. (EHNM Attack 2600-2100)
"And now I shall destroy that Nova." Jinzo ordered and he sent a powerful red beam of light from his goggled eyes and destroyed Nova Master."
Jaden: 3300
Jinzo: 2000
"And now my Summoned Skull will attack you directly." Summoned Skull opened up his chest and he sent a large lightning strike which struck Jaden hard and caused him to yell in pain.
Jaden: 800
Jinzo: 2000
"Jaden!" Alexis yelled as Jaden was struck and then the upper part of Jaden's body faded as well.
"Oh no, Jaden's down to his last few life points." Chumley added
"And worse with Jinzo now on the field Jaden can't play any trap cards." Theorn stated
"So do you give up?" Jinzo asked
"Never!" Jaden yelled. "I never give up."
"Foolish boy." Jinzo said. "I now equip myself with Amplifier so now I can activate trap cards. Now I'll throw one card face down and end my turn."
"My draw!" Jaden yelled. "I'll start with Pot of Greed which allows me to draw two more cards." Jaden drew two but then he heard a cooing noise, he looked at the cards he drew and saw that one of them was his old pal Winged Kuriboh. The spirit of Kuriboh then appeared on his shoulders. "It's good to see you too pal."
"A duel spirit?" Jinzo questioned
"He's a friend first and a spirit second which is why he doesn't need to feed on souls." Jaden replied. "Now I'm summoning him in defense mode." The small Winged Kuriboh appeared on Jaden's field. "And then I'll throw one card faced own and call it a turn."
"Well it's my turn now and you can forget about that face down if it's a trap because it won't activate." Jinzo said. "And now I'll destroy that little furball." Jinzo sent a powerful beam of light which destroyed the Kuriboh
"Sorry Jinzo but when Winged Kuriboh is destroyed, I take no damage this turn." Jaden stated
"Oh well, I guess I'll have to end you on your next turn." Jinzo said
"Sorry but that won't happen." Jaden stated. "Now I summon activate the spell card Fusion Recovery which allows me to add Polymerisation and my Elemental Hero Clayman from my graveyard to my hand, next I'll summon Clayman in attack mode and equip him with Clay Wrap." The Humanoid rock like monster reappeared on Jaden's field and he was then wrapped up in some kind of brown liquid. "Now I'll play my Polymerization to fuse Clayman with Elemental Hero Avian in my hand in order to summon Elemental Hero Gaia." Jaden's monster was replaced by a large black armoured warrior "And there's more to that, when Clay Wrap is sent to the graveyard, I can destroy one spell or trap card on your field so I'll destroy that Amplifier." The helmet on Jinzo head broke apart and then electric shocked Jinzo and began to fade.
"Wait what is happening?" Kallian asked
"When Amplifier is destroyed the monster equipped with it is also destroyed." Alexis stated
"And because this is Jinzo's card it also means that the spirit on Jinzo is also destroyed." Daylen said
Jinzo faded and Jaden looked. "Does that mean the Duel's over now?" he questioned then he saw Torrey move. "Hey Torrey are you alright?"
"I am not Torrey, I am Jinzo." Torrey said in a mixture of Jinzo and Torrey's voice "This Duel is not over yet."
"Oh yes it is." Jaden confirmed. "Because now my Gaia's effect activates which halves the attack points of your Summoned Skull and adds them to my Gaia." (EHG Attack 2200-3450) (SS Attack 2500-1250) "Now Gaia, end this Duel, destroy that Skull."
"Sorry but this Duel's not over yet." Jinzo said. "Because I play my face down, Negate Attack which negates your attack."
"Sorry but I activate my own face down, Solemn Judgment, now by sacrificing half my life points I can negate the effect of your trap and destroy it." Jaden said as he activated his face down card.
Jaden: 400
Jinzo: 2000
"No!" Jinzo howled
"And now Gaia, end this duel, attack that Summoned Skull." Jaden ordered and Gaia sent a powerful fist and smashed into Summoned Skull and destroyed him which ended the Duel.
Jaden: 400 (Winner)
Jinzo: 0000
As soon as Jinzo was defeated, the possessed Torrey yelled as the Spirit vanished and then everyone was blinded by a bright light. When the Light faded, everyone was back in the Power unit with Torrey and the other 2 students lying on the ground unconscious.
"Are they all right?" Kallian asked
Daylen and Solona went over and examined the two students. 
"They'll be all right." Solona confirmed
"Will they remember what happened?" Syrus asked
"I don't think so." Jaden said. "I think that it's best if they forgot. But I won't, Duel spirits are not just real, they're dangerous as well, though not all of them."
"You're right about that Jaden." Daylen said as he helped Torrey. "Banner we need help here."
"It's best if we get them to the Infirmary." Banner said. "The School Nurse can check on them make sure that there will be no medical issues."
Theorn and Chumley helped the other two students while Daylen helped Torrey. As everyone was helping the students, Daylen noticed that Solona was staying behind as he was looking around 
"Are you all right sister?" he asked
Solona paled. 
"I feel something brother." She said and then her eyes widened "We're not alone here! Get back!" Solona yelled and she pushed Daylen away from the generators and then as soon as Daylen was away, a purple fire surrounded the Generators.
"Oh what now?" Theorn questioned
"This is just like what happened at Solona's expulsion duel." Alexis stated
Solona stared at the barrier in shock, Urthemiel had sensed something and then she felt it. But it was clear that there was a member of the Venatori here for her. She turned as she heard a loud cackle. She saw a figure dressed in a long black cloak and seemed to have glowing red eyes. 
"Who are you?" Solona demanded
The black cloaked figure laughed like he was mad. "I am your worst nightmare come true."
