Elimination Duels part 1

The next day was the day the expulsion duels would take place and Dr Crowler was walking through the main building and he notice all of the Slifer Red Students
"Just look at all the Slacker." Crowler said to himself so no one could hear him. "Pathetic Slackers littering the Campus like vermin. These halls are for the elite duelists not the lame and especial not that Slifer Slacker Jaden Yuki. THAT SLACKER HAS MADE A FOOL OF ME LONG ENOUGH!" Crowler's yell caused the Slifer students to flee to their next class. "But soon he shall pay, soon he shall look like a fool."
"Dr Crowler." A voice came and Crowler turned to see Chazz walking towards him.
"Ah, Chazz." Crowler said. "What can I do for you?"
"You can put me in the Elimination Duel against Jaden that's what." Chazz said
"Sorry Chazz but no." Crowler said and Chazz frowned. "Don't worry your skills are admirable but I'm taking no chances. I've hired the best Tag Duelists in the world as the loser of the duels will be expelled and that student must be Jaden Yuki."
"Then let me go against that Dragon Reject." Chazz said as he wanted to pay Solona back for beating him.
"Sorry again but her duelist has already been chosen." Crowler said
...
As for Solona, she was in the Library as she wanted to have one last look through her dad's diary before the Duel in a few hours. While she was worried she believed in her deck and that she could defeat whoever Crowler picked. But as she was reading she was interrupted by Neria. 
"Oh Neria, what can I do for you?" Solona asked
"It's not me but I was asked by Professor Dorian to tell you that he wants to see you." Neria said
"Professor Dorian? Why does he want to see me?" Solona asked
"I don't know but he seemed to have a visitor and they were talking about you, now Dorian is quite worried and he asked to see you."
Solona packed up her things and she headed for Professor Dorian's office where she knocked and was allowed in where she saw Dorian with a worried face sitting at his desk. "You wanted to see me Professor?" Solona said
"Yes I did and there is a reason why. It involves your duel in a few hours. I just found out who Crowler has hired to take you on. It's not good news. The man is my former mentor, Gereon Alexius."
"I'm dueling your mentor." Solona said. "Why did you want to see me then. Is there something wrong with him?"
"There is I'm afraid." Dorian said. "He never finished teaching me. There was an accident with his son Felix which left Felix with an illness which is going is soon going to kill him. Well I was contacted by Alexius and he told me that his father is quite interested in you for some reason."
It was then that the door opened and a man with short black hair came in. "I see you found her then?" The man said
"Took you long enough Felix, are you sure you're all right? Dorian said
"I'll be fine but I'm worried about my father." Felix said and then he looked at Solona. "My father has joined one of those Shadow Duelist cults. He believes that this cult could help save me, they call themselves the Venatori."
"The Venatori?" Solona exclaimed. "That's the cult that my father describes in his journal, and it was the cult that Samson claimed to be from."
"My father believes that they can save me but he's wrong." Felix said. "It's madness. And I'm worried what he's going to do. The cult is led by something call the Elder One, and he gave something to father which has me very worried, it's a duel card that had some kind of power inside it. I don't like this."
"You must be careful with this Duel Solona." Dorian said. "Take no chances"
"I won't take any chances." Solona said
Later, Solona went pact to her room to collect her deck and Duel disk. But she picked up her Urthemiel card and the spirit appeared "Do you feel anything?" Solona questioned
"I do I'm afraid." Urthemiel said. "I feel the influence of Razikale."
"That must be the card that this Elder one gave to Alexius." Solona says. "If he has then it seems I have no choice but to use you."
"Just be careful" Urthemiel said and then Solona placed the Urthemiel card in her deck and left the dorm.
...
At the Slifer Dorm, Syrus and Jaden were looking through their decks while Chumley sat on the top bunk. "How can you guys be so calm?" Chumley asked
"How can we not be." Jaden said. "Another day another duel right Sy."
"But this Duel is different." Syrus said. "If we lose then we'll be expelled."
"Then that's why we won't be losing." Jaden said.
"Oh, well you can still give me your meal cards just in case." Chumley added
"Thanks for the vote of confidence" Jaden mutter sarcastically
"Well someone has to eat your grilled cheeses." Chumley added
Syrus stared at his Power Bond card 'Chumley may have a point.' He thought. 'The last time I dueled I was awful, but Jaden said I've got to believe in myself. Gotta believe in myself' "I believe in myself Jaden!" Syrus shouted
"That's the spirit Syrus." Jaden said. "Now we should go and do this duel."
"Actually, it's Solona who duels first." Chumley said. "You'll have to wait until she's finished her duel."
...
At the main Dueling hall, nearly all of the students at Duel Academy had gathered to watch the big Elimination Duels. Chumley sat with Faren and Kallian as well as Bastion.
"So you're Bastion." A voice came and Chumley turned to see Alexis and Sereda
"And you must be Alexis." Bastion said
"I am." Alexis said
"I just hope they'll be all right." Sereda added
"Don't worry Sereda." Aedan said from above them. "I'm sure that they'll all be fine."
Daylen sat closer to the front next to Theorn and Neria. 
"Will your sister be okay?" Neria asked
"She'll be fine." Daylen said. "She's strong and a good Duelist."
...
"Attention Duel Academy Students, the first of the Elimination Duels is about to begin. Remember, these are imminent Expulsion Duels, if you lose then you shall be expelled from Duel Academy. Bring in the accused, Syrus Truesdale, Jaden Yuki and Solona Amell."
Right on time, Jaden, Solona and Syrus came out of the dueling entrance.
"The acoustics are great guys." Jaden grinned. "This is going to be a blast."
"Do you think they'll count the echo as your partner?" Syrus asked
"For the last time you're my partner." Jaden said and he rubbed Syrus' hair
Syrus laughed. "Wouldn't hurt to ask."
"Relax Sy, I'll help you along." Jaden said.
Syrus looked up to see Zane in the stands. 'So little brother, time to see if you belong here.' Zane thought.
'It's Zane.' Syrus thought. 'Gotta believe in myself gotta believe in myself.'
Chazz meanwhile glared at the three of them. "It should be me facing you slackers and reject, but as long as you're expelled, I don't care." he growled
Soon the Slifers and Ra arrived at the Dueling platform where Crowler was standing. "Attention now the first duel shall begin. Solona Amell to the Duel Arena" Crowler announced through a microphone and then he looked at Jaden and Syrus. "You slackers can sit over there on the benches until it's your turn." Jaden and Syrus sat on some benches while Solona went onto the arena after she looked at her brother. "Now to introduce our 1st guest, please welcome professional Duelist, Gereon Alexius."
A tall bald man wearing a dark red blazer like Sheppard's came onto the stage with a smile on his face. Bastion stared at the man "I've heard of this man." He said "He was a pro duelist who helped teach other duelists and did research for Duel monsters."
"So he's a pro?" Kallian asked
"Well several years ago he just vanished from public view" Bastion explained. "No one has heard of him in several years."
Crowler sat in the stands with Chancellor Sheppard, Banner and Dorian. Sheppard stared at the man. "Crowler don't you think that this isn't right?" Sheppard asked
"Well I admit, I did feel something strange when I was picking Solona's opponent." Crowler confessed. 
'Why do I have the feeling that something is wrong.' he thought.
Alexius and Solona were shuffling each other's decks before they got into positions. 
"All right." Crowler called over a microphone. "You know the rules, if Solona Amell wins this duel then she is free of punishment, if she loses, then she's on the next boat out of here."
"GO SOLONA!" Solona's friends yelled.
Solona and Alexius looked at each other before they activated their duel disks and drew their opening hands.
"Duel!"
Solona: 8000
Alexius: 8000
"Before we begin, there's something I want to tell you Solona Amell." Alexius said
"What's that?" Solona asked
Alexius smirked and chuckled which Solona didn't like the Alexius pulled some kind of amulet out from his pocket. "The Elder Ones sends his regards."
"What's that supposed to mean?" A spiky-blonde haired man asked from higher up in the stands.
"NO!" Solona yelled but then the Amulet let out a burst of light and then a purple dome surrounded the field which shocked everyone.
Daylen watched in horror. 
"SISTER!" He yelled
"What's going on?" Neria screamed
Jaden and Syrus stood up and stared in horror as the dome surrounded Solona. 
"What!" Syrus yelled "SOLONA!"
Sheppard and Dorian stared in horror. 
"What's happening?" Sheppard shouted and then glared at Crowler. "Crowler what did you do?"
"I don't understand!" Crowler yelled. "I didn't know Alexius was a shadow duelist." 'And I'm telling the truth, I didn't think that this would happen.'
Solona stared at the field in shock. "So Dorian was right." She said to herself and then she glared at Alexius. "You're a member of the Venatori!"
"The Venatori?" Bastion up in the stands said. "Who are the Venatori?"
"I don't know." Alexis and Sereda said
Alexius laughed. "I am indeed young girl." He said. "And you have something that my mater wants, a certain one of a kind card."
"Well you're not getting it that easy!" Solona yelled
Alexius laughed. "Well my master will have it after I've beaten you and then there will only be one left to find. And I'm sure that Aristide will soon give us the location."
"Aristide?" Solona questioned and then her eyes widened with horror as she realized that he was talking about her father. "What have you done with my father? Where is he?"
Alexius laughed. "I may tell you after you beat me, but of course you won't win."
"Oh yeah!" Solona yelled. "I will sure try to win."
"Wait is she thinking!" Theorn yelled in shock. "This is dangerous!"
"It's the fact that this guy knows where our father is." Daylen said. "Solona is desperate to find clues about him."
"Let's get on with this duel then." Solona said and she went first. "I summon Red Eyes Black Chick in attack mode." The small red egg appeared with the baby dragon hatching from it. "And then I activate his ability to summon the all powerful Red Eyes Black Dragon." The Egg disappeared and was replaced by the fully grown Red eyes. "Then I'll end my turn there."
"Check that out." Sereda said. "Solona summoned a powerful monster out on her first turn"
"Yes, but we still haven't seen what Alexius can do yet." Bastion added
"Is that all." Alexius said. "Well it doesn't matter." Alexius began his move. "Now I activate Foolish Burial to discard one card to the graveyard, then I activate Monster Reborn to summon that monster, say hello to the all powerful Dark Magician." A tall red robed magician appeared which was the evil version of Dark Magician (Level 7 Attack 2500 Defense 2100) "And it gets worse, because now I activate the spell card Thousand Knives which destroys your Red Eyes." Solona gasped as her monster was destroyed leaving her field empty. "Now Dark Magician, attack, Dark Magic Attack." The Dark Magician sent a blast of lightning from his staff which slammed into Solona, sending her flying back into the purple force field, electrocuting her causing her to scream in agony.
Solona: 5500
Alexius: 8000
"Solona!" her friends yelled as Solona collapsed from the pain.
"Oh no." Neria added. "It the first turn and now Solona's hurt bad."
"That's it!" Jaden yelled angrily as he stood up. "No one hurts my friends like that!" But as Jaden ran into the force field, it zapped him backwards causing him to be flung off the stage.
"Jaden!" Syrus yelled
"The Force Field, this isn't like that fake Shadow Duelist, this is real." Jaden said
Solona pushed herself up. 
"That hurt." She said softly. "Quite a lot"
Alexius laughed. "And it's going to get worse." He said. "But it's your move after I throw one card face down."
"My draw." Solona said. "And guess what, you're not the only one who can summon powerful monsters like that, I play my own Foolish Burial to discard one card to the graveyard. Then I play my Monster Reborn to summon that monster back, I summon Blue Eyes White Dragon." Everyone except Solona's friends gasped as her Blue eyes appeared on the field.
"How can she have that card!" Chazz gasped
Even Crowler and Sheppard were shocked that Solona had a Blue Eyes White Dragon.
"And guess what, get ready for a big hit." Solona said. "I activate Tribute to the Doomed so by discarding one card in my hand; I can destroy your Dark Magician." Solona discarded her Red eyes Wyvern and Dark Magician exploded. "Now Blue Eyes, attack Alexius directly, Burst Steam of Destruction."
"Oh yeah." Jaden said. "Let's see how he like getting injured."
Blue Eyes let out a blue blast from his breath which engulfed Alexius, sending him flying backwards into the force field but he didn't scream in pain.
Solona: 5500
Alexius: 5000
"Oh come on, aren't you in pain?" Solona asked
"No actually." Alexius said. "In fact, that power is quite soothing. This is my type of power so I don't feel it."
"He's crazy." Theorn said and Daylen looked worried for his sister.
Solona sighed. "I place one card face down and end my turn. Which means that the effect of my Red Eyes Wyvern activates."
"What?" Alexius exclaimed. "You don't have that card in your graveyard."
"Yes I do, it was the card I discarded with Tribute to the Doomed." Solona explained. "So now by removing Wyvern from play, I can summon back my Red Eyes Black Dragon."
"My turn." Alexius laughed. "But before I draw, I activate my Solemn Wishes trap card so now when I draw, I gain 500 Life points. So now I get 500 Life points since I just drew another card."
Solona: 5500
Alexius: 5500
"And now with Pot of Greed, I can draw two more cards which means I gain 1000 Life points." Alexius added
Solona: 5500
Alexius: 6500
"Now I summon Silent Magician LV 4 in attack mode." A little girl wearing mage robes appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1000 Defense 1000) "And now I play the spell card Level up so I can level up my Magician from level 4 to Level 8 ignoring the summoning conditions."
"That's a clever move." Bastion said. "Because no he doesn't have to wait 5 turns to summon it."
"But now that Silent Magician is stronger than Solona's Blue Eyes." Sereda said.
"Now rise Silent Magician Level 8." Alexius said and then the small girl magician glowed and was replaced by the fully grown Silent Magician (Level 8 Attack 3500 Defense 1000) "And now my Magician is going to attack your Blue eyes, so Silent Magic Blast." Silent Magician destroyed Solona's Blue eyes which caused a bit of pain to Solona but didn't send her flying backwards like the last attack.
Solona: 5000
Alexius: 6500
"Now it's your move after I place one card face down." Alexius said
"Well my Red Eyes may not be able to attack but he can still defend, so I'll switch him to defense mode. And don't think you're safe from damage because I activate the spell card Inferno Fire Blast so now you get hit with Red Eye's attack points as Damage." A fire blast from Red Eyes came from his mouth which hit Alexius but once again he didn't scream in pain.
Solona: 5000
Alexius: 4100
"Then I'll summon Masked Dragon in defense mode and end my turn." Solona finished and a red and white Dragon appeared on the field (Level 3 Attack 1400 Defense 1100)
"My turn." Alexius said. "And don't forget, I gain 500 Life points thanks to Solemn Wishes."
Solona: 5000
Alexius: 4600
"Now I'll play Premature Burial to summon back my Dark Magician." Alexius added and the Red robed magician returned. "But he won't be around for Long, because now I'll sacrifice him to activate my 'Dedication through Light and Darkness' spell which allows me to summon Dark Magician of Chaos from my deck." The Red robed Magician was replaced by a long black haired Magician wearing dark blue robes with purple patterns and holding a long Sceptre in his hands (Level 8 Attack 2800 Defense 2600) "Now I'll equip my Silent Magician with Fairy Meteor Crush, now when he attacks a monster in defense mode, you take damage equal to the damage between Magician and your monster's defense points." Solona gasped. "Now Dark Magician, destroy that Red Eyes, Sceptre Strike." Dark Magician of Chaos sent a powerful strike from his sceptre which destroyed Red Eyes. "Now Silent Magician, destroy that Masked Dragon with Silent Magical Blast." Masked Dragon was destroyed and thanks to Fairy Meteor Crush, Solona took a direct hit which sent her flying back into the Force Field again causing her to scram in pain.
Solona: 2600
Alexius: 4600
"I activate my Masked Dragon's ability to summon Divine Dragon Apocralyph." A fiery dragon appeared on Solona's field (Level 4 Attack 1000 Defence 1500)
"That card won't help you Solona." Alexius laughed. "I end my turn."
"My move then." Solona said. "And I'll start with Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy that Solemn Wishes." The trap was destroyed by a Typhoon.
"Why did she destroy that?" Faren asked. "True Alexius no longer gains Life points but Solona will take damage when her Monsters are in defense mode."
"I think Solona has a plan." Kallian said
"I just hope she'll be all right." Sereda added
"And since that Solemn wishes is gone, I activate Card of Sanctity so now we draw until we have 6 cards in our hands." Solona said and then she and Alexius both drew until they they had 6 cards. Solona smiled at her hand. "Now I activate Apocralyph's special ability, so by discarding one card to the Graveyard, I can get my Blue Eyes back to my hand. And with Polymerziation, I can fuse the three Blue Eyes in my hand to fusion summon my Neo Blue Eyes White Dragon." Everyone gasped as the three headed Blue eyes with sparkling Crystal scale appeared on Solona's field. Many of the girls stared in awe at the sparkle of the scales.
"That's some monster." Jaden said
"And now I'll play the spell card Dragon's sacrifice, so now can sacrifice my Apocralyph so I can gain life points equal to his attack points."
Solona: 3600
Alexius: 4600
"Why did she do that?" Syrus asked. "Now she's wiped out an extra step of protection."
"Why would you do that?" Alexius wondered
"So I can activate Neo's special ability." Solona said and Alexius raised an eyebrow. "You see, if Neo is the only monster on my field, if I send one Blue Eyes Fusion monster to the graveyard, my Neo can attack again." Alexius and the students gasped. "So now I sent my original Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon from my Extra deck so my Neo Blue Eyes can attack twice, so go, destroy both of Alexius' monsters." Neo Blue Eyes sent a blue blast onto the field which destroyed both Silent Magician and Dark Magician of Chaos and Alexius was once again sent flying backwards into the force field.
Solona: 3600
Alexius: 1900
"Come on." Solona said. "You just took a big hit and you're not in pain."
Alexius laughed. "When you've been dueling in Shadow Games you soon get used to the pain." He said
Solona sighed. "I place one card facedown and end my turn."
"My move then." Alexius said "And thanks to your card of Sanctity, I now have a full hand, I'll start by summoning Mystical Elf in defence mode." A blue skinned elf appeared in defense mode (Level 4 Attack 800 Defense 2000) "And then to stop you from attacking, I activate the spell card Swords of Revealing Light so now you can't attack for 3 turns. Then I'll end my turn."
"My turn." Solona said but there was nothing she could do as she couldn't attack "I'll pass this turn."
Bastion watched. "With that Sword's spell out, Solona can't attack."
"But I wonder what Alexius is doing?" Sereda wondered
"Now it's my turn then." Alexius said. "I summon Blast Magician in attack mode." A red robes magician wielding a sceptre in his hands appeared next to Mystical Elf (Level 4 Attack 1400 Defense 1700) "Then I'll end my turn"
"My move again." Solona said and she smiled at the card. "I may not be able to attack, but I can still get powerful monsters out so I activate the spell card Dragon's mirror which allows me to fuse my three Blues Eyes, my Red Eyes and my Masked Dragon in my Graveyard and remove them from play to summon the all powerful Five Headed Dragon." A massive Dragon with five heads appeared on the field (Level 12 Attack 5000 Defense 5000) "Then I'll end my turn there since I can't attack."
"My move." Alexius started. "And I summon Rapid-Fire Magician in attack mode." A black robed Magician holding two small sceptres in his hands appeared (Level 4 Attack 1600 Defense 1200) "Now every time I activate a normal spell card; you take 400 points of damage. I end my turn."
"My draw." Solona started. "But there is nothing I can do so I'll pass this turn but now your Swords Spell is destroyed." Solona ended her turn and the magical swords faded
"All right!" Daylen yelled. "Now my sister can attack again on her next turn."
"Yeah" Theorn added. "And Alexius is going to have to summon a very powerful monster to destroy Solona's best monsters."
"Go on Solona!" Jaden cheered from his seat. "You can do it."
But Alexius started laughing. "I'm sorry but this duel is about to get more extreme now." He said. "This duel is about to get better, for me at least, did you think I summoned my monsters to defend me. No, I brought them out to summon my Ultimate monster."
"I don't like this." Sereda said. "It must be a very powerful Monster if Alexius is so confident in it."
"Now I sacrifice my Mystical Elf, Blast Magician and Rapid Fire Magician in order to summon out my Ultimate Monster." Alexius held a card up to Solona and then turned it around to show her "You recognize this don't you."
Solona gasped when she saw the monster. "That's not good"
"No it isn't good." Alexius said. "For you at least, I summon Razikale Old God of Mystery." A massive purple Dragon appeared on the field and his eyes burnt with red fury. The Dragon let out a powerful roar which caused most of the people in the arena to cover their ears. They all gasped when they saw the monster (Level 12 Attack 5000 Defense 5000)
"5000 attack points." Jaden said
"I've never heard of or seen that Monster before." Bastion added
"This is bad." Daylen added
Chazz smirked at the monster. 
"That is indeed one powerful card" he said
Crowler looked worried. "If this is indeed a Shadow Game then it is about to get worse."
"You recognize this don't you Solona?" Alexius said. "You should since you've got a card just like it. But you never used it, but now that card will belong to my Master as this Duel is over because I activate Razikale's special ability which halves the attack points of your Five Headed Dragon and adds them to Razikale." (FHD Attack 5000-2500 ROGOM Attack 5000-7500)
"7500 attack points." Jaden said in shock. "But if that move goes through then Solona will lose."
"SOLONA!" Daylen yelled from the stands.
"Razikale, destroy Solona's Five Headed Dragon and the rest of her Life Points. Go Dark Mystical Blast. Sure your Dragon may not be destroyed since Razikale is a dark monster but your Life points are a different story. Now Say Goodbye!
"SOLONA!" All of her friends yelled as Razikale let out a large purple blast of fire from his mouth which was sent flying towards Solona. The Blast had a large purple light which caused many students to turn away from the Light. Then the Blast hit Solona.
Alexius laughed. "It's over, this duel's mine, and now that card now belongs to my master."
"WRONG!" A voice shouted and everyone looked to Solona's field and saw that she was still standing.
"WHAT!" Alexius yelled. "HOW!"
"Take a look." Solona said and everyone gasped at the trap card she activated, Draining Shield. "Since I activated Draining Shield, I now gain the attack points of your monster as Life Points. This Duel's not over yet."
Solona: 11100
Alexius: 1900
Alexius growled. "Fine then, I place one card face down and end my turn"
"That was close." Theorn said. "Really close but now Solona has a lot of Life Points."
"Yeah but with that Razikale out, it will just half the attack points of all of my sisters monsters and absorb them."
"By the way what did Alexius mean when he said Solona has a card just like Razikale?" Theorn added
"That's something only Solona could tell you." Daylen answered
Bastion, Alexis and Sereda stared at the monster. "This isn't going to be easy." Bastion said. "Solona may have a lot of Life points but that Razikale has a huge ability."
"Bastion's right." Sereda said. "I just hope Solona has a plan."
"My turn I draw." Solona said. 'This isn't going to be easy, because no matter what I summon that Razikale will just half its attack points, but not defence points' Solona then remembered Five Headed Dragon's ability 'That's it, as long as my Five Headed Dragon is in defense mode, he won't be destroyed. "I switch both my monsters to defense mode and then end my turn."
"Not much you can do is there?" Alexius laughed. "Well, I can still do things with Pot of Greed. I activate a second Fairy Meteor Crush and equip it to Razikale, now you will take damage. But I also activate Razikale's Talons, now when my Razikale attacks, it negates your monsters abilities."
"But that means that my Five Headed Dragon is about to be destroyed." Solona gasped
"That's right, at remember, even though your monster is in defense mode, Razikale still gains half his attack points." (ROGOM Attack 5000-7500) "Now Razikale, destroy that Five Headed Dragon freak." Razikale sent a powerful purple blast which slammed into Solona's dragon and destroyed it which caused more pain to Solona.
Solona: 8600
Alexius: 1900
"Now it's your move." Alexius finished.
Solona drew a card, and then she looked at her hand. "I activate Graceful Charity so now I draw 3 cards as long as I discard 2." Solona did that. "Then I'll end my turn."
"That's it, well now Razikale will destroy that Blue Eyes. And he gains half his attack points." Alexius laughed (ROGOM Attack 5000-7250) "Now attack!" Razikale destroyed Blue eyes as well and Solona was sent back into the Force field with another high pitch scream coming from her mouth.
Solona: 5150
Alexius: 1900
Alexius laughed. "Well, you got to do something soon girl. I place two cards facedown and end my turn there."
"This duel's not over yet." Solona said and then she drew her card. When she looked at it, she smiled. "Since I have 3 dark attribute monsters in my graveyard, I can summon my Dark Armed Dragon." A massive Black armoured Dragon appeared on Solona's field (Level 7 Attack 2800 Defense 1000)
"Wait, since when do you have 3 dark monsters?" Alexius wondered
"My Five Headed Dragon is a dark Attribute, I still my Red Eyes Black Chick from the start of the Duel and then I have my Darkstorm Dragon which I discarded with Graceful Charity." Solona answered. "Now I activate my dragon's special ability, by removing my Red Eyes Black chick from the graveyard, I can destroy your Razikale." Alexius gasped as Razikale howled and then shattered. "Now you're wide open and now my Dragon can end this duel, go Dark Armed Dragon, attack Alexius directly."
But Solona had forgotten one thing. "Foolish Girl, did you forget about my trap card, I activate Negate Attack." Solona's Dragon went back to her field.
"Oh well, at least that Razikale's gone." Solona said. "I think I'll increase my defense by throwing one monster face down and then a card face down, it's your move."
"With that great monster gone Solona may now have a chance." Theorn said in the stands.
"I hope so because this duel isn't over yet." Daylen said
Alexius laughed. "This duel's not over yet." He laughed. "In fact, it's about to get worse, I play my other facedown Call of the Haunted."
"Not that card!" Syrus yelled
"That's right." Alexius said. "Now my Razikale returns." The great Dragon returned to the field. "And now his effect activate, halving the attack points of your dragon and then added them to Razikale. (DAD Attack 2800-1400 ROGOM Attack 5000-6400) "Now be prepared for a big hit, Razikale, destroy that Dark Armed Dragon." Razikale sent another blast from his mouth which slammed into Dark Armed Dragon. The Dragon howled and shattered and created a wind blast which blew Solona back and into the Force Field again. This time there was a much louder and bigger scream as now Solona took a massive hit. After the shock, Solona felt so weak that she fell to her knees before falling face forward.
Solona: 150
Alexius: 1900
"SOLONA!" Daylen yelled from the stands, his eyes wide with horror. Jaden had gotten out of his seat and tried to get through the force field, only to have it force him back. Theorn and Neria stared in horror, Aedan, Bastion, Sereda and Alexis wanted to do something but there was nothing they could do. Crowler stared in horror at the fallen Solona and Sheppard looked scared, even Chazz looked unsure. Many of the students had cried in shock and had run out of the arena in terror.
Alexius laughed. "It's your move now that is if you can get up." Alexis then laughed.
"Come on sister!" Daylen cried. "Get up! Get up!"
But Solona was unmoving and looked as if she was dead. But her mind was elsewhere.
...
In Solona's mind, she didn't know what to do, there was nothing she could do, she was almost out of Life points and she had no more powerful monsters to destroy Razikale.
"Solona." A soft voice called. "Don't give up. You mustn't give up." Solona turned to see Urthemiel hovering above her.
"Am I dead?" Solona asked
"No, you're not but you have to wake up and end this duel now." Urthemiel said
"But how, I don't have any cards that can help me now." Solona said
"You're wrong; you know there is one card that can help you win this duel." Urthemiel said
"But the possibility of drawing that card is slim and even if I did, I won't be able to summon." Solona protested
"Aren't you forgetting the card in your hand and the monster on your field." Urthemiel said
Solona gasped when she remembered what she what she had in her hand. "You're right, I can do this."
"That's right." Urthemiel said. "Now all you have to do is wake up and finish this fight." Solona's vision then faded.
...
In the real world, Solona finally opened her eyes and then she pushed herself up and she heard the cheers of her friends.
"Take him down sister!" Daylen yelled
"Finish him Solona." Theorn added
"Go Solona!" Jaden and Syrus cheered
"You should have stayed down." Alexius laughed
"I don't think so because I've still got life points and cards to play." Solona yelled. 'I just hope I keep my promise and I draw the right card' Solona thought and then she drew her card, when she looked at the card, she smiled. "This Duel is over."
"How?" Alexius wondered. "You barely have any life points left. Just face it, no card can save you."
"Wrong!" Solona yelled. "First I'll flip my face down monster which is Keeper of the Shrine." A man with a dragon like body appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 0 Defence 2100)
"What's she's going to do with that?" Alexis asked
"Well Keeper of the Shrine counts as 2 sacrifices for a dragon type monster" Bastion said
"Now I play the spell card Dragon's revival which allows me to summon my back Darkstorm Dragon." A large nightmare dragon appeared on the field (Level 8 Attack 2700 Defence 2500)
"Big deal." Alexius said. "Those monsters don't have the attack points to destroy my Razikale."
"I'm not planning to use these guys." Solona said and she held up the final card in her hand "In my hand lies the card which will end you."
"What card do you think she has?" Neria asked
"It must be a powerful card." Theorn added
Daylen gasped. "Solona, did you put that card in your deck."
"What card?" Theorn asked
"Now I sacrifice my Keeper of the Shrine and Darkstorm Dragon to summon my ultimate monster, a monster just like your Razikale, and since my Keeper counts as two sacrifices, I give three sacrifices. I summon my ancient creature; I summon Urthemiel, Old God of Beauty."
A huge cloud of fiery smoke appeared and then the clouds formed together and a large Purple scaled Dragon appeared one that was like Razikale though the scales were more beautiful and shone with a purple glow. (Level 12 Attack 5000 Defense 5000)
"You known this card don't you?" Solona asked. "This is the card your master is looking for. Well this card will be your downfall because now I activate Urthemiel's special ability which allows me to remove my Five Headed Dragon from my Graveyard and add half its attack points to Urthemiel" (UOGOB Attack 5000-7500) "And with no facedowns this duel's over, now Urthemiel, destroy Razikale and the rest of his Life points with Beauty Shine Blast." Urthemiel opened her mouth and sent a powerful blast of fire which slammed into Razikale and caused the Old God monster to howl before exploding and sending Alexius backwards into the force field and this time he did let out a loud scream.
Solona: 150 (Winner)
Alexius: 0000
"Yeah!" Syrus yelled. "She did it."
Daylen, Theorn and Neria ran over to the stage along with Jaden as soon as the duel ended. Then the Force Field disappeared and Solona collapsed from exhaustion.
"SISTER!" Daylen yelled and he caught his sister in his arms who was now breathing long deep breaths. 
"Are you okay Solona?" he asked
"I'm fine" Solona answered "Just a little tired and sore."
"No joke." Jaden said. "You took a lot of damage there."
Daylen handed Solona over to Theorn who helped her stand up though she had her hand around Theorn and was struggling to stay stood up. Daylen then walked over to the fallen Alexius who had pushed himself to his knees.
"You've won, there is no point in fighting." Alexius said
But Daylen's eyes were full of rage and then without warning, his fist collided with Alexius who ended up on his back.
"THAT WAS FOR HURTING MY SISTER YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Daylen yelled. "NO ONE HURTS MY SISTER LIKE THAT!" Daylen then tried to punch him again
"Whoa Daylen that's enough." Neria said
"Enough!" Daylen yelled. "This guy nearly killed my sister!"
"But right now we need to get Solona to the infirmary." Theorn added. "She needs help."
Crowler, Sheppard, Banner, Dorian and the school nurse Miss Fontaine arrived and Sheppard looked at Solona "Are you okay Solona."
Solona gave a deep breath. "I'm fine chancellor, I just need some time to rest."
Crowler looked at Alexius. "I still don't understand how this guy's a Shadow Duelist." He said. "His record said that he was a duelling manager."
"Well he was." Dorian said. "But something happened to him, but we shouldn't be the ones to find out."
It was then that the doors of the Entrance Hall opened and several army like people with Duel disks on their arms. They wore green army uniforms with a black eyes stitch on.
"Ah right on time." Dorian said. "It's about time you showed up Cassandra."
A tall woman who had short black hair and glaring eyes appeared before Dorian, Solona guessed that this was Cassandra. "We came as soon as we got your message Dorian." Cassandra said. "I see that we found an agent of the Venatori."
"That's right we have." Dorian said. "And he may have information to the whereabouts of Agent Aristide."
"Wait" Daylen said "Aristide as in Aristide Amell, my father?"
Cassandra looked at Dorian. "You mean he never told you?"
"Told me what?" Daylen asked
"Perhaps it would be best as soon as we get Solona to the Infirmary." Dorian said.
Daylen went to help his sister while 2 of the army men went to grab Alexius by his arms. Alexius didn't put up a fight and he let the soldiers drag him away while another took his duel disk and deck. But before Alexius could be taken away, there was a flash of light.
"Oh what now?" Daylen wondered
A small black shadow formed though the image was unclear. Alexius' eyes widened with fear. "Oh master, please forgive me."
"Forgive you?" The image said. "You have failed me Alexius, now they have a second Old God card."
"So you're this Bastard's master!" Daylen yelled. "Who the hell are you and what is it you want with my sister?"
The shadow laughed. "Ah my dear Daylen, stubborn just like your father, you can call me the Elder One, the leader of the infamous Venatori, the soon to be rulers of this world."
"You won't get away with this!" Cassandra yelled. "The Seekers will stop you."
The Elder one laughed. "I already captured one of your best agents but that hasn't stopped me yet." Then the Elder One looked at Solona. "And my dear Solona, do you know what I want from you because it's more than just that card." The Elder One looked at Solona's eyes with his black ones. Solona's eyes widened with horror before she started shaking in pain and then she fell from Daylen and Theorn's arms as she collapsed as her head filled with images.
Solona yelled as visions filled her head, she saw images of Dark Dragons as well as warriors fighting. Then she saw a woman wearing red robes fighting against a man dressed in armour but the man looked a lot like Aedan. The red robed woman laughed as she cut down Aedan. Solona tried to shake these visions from her head but they kept coming.
Daylen watched in horror as his sister collapsed, then he glared at the Elder one. "Stop it, stop whatever you're doing with my sister!" he yelled
"SOLONA!" all of her friends yelled and Daylen, Theorn and Neria tried to help her. Cassandra looked at Dorian. "You know what to do Dorian."
Dorian held up his hand and then a white burst of light appeared and the image of the Elder one disappeared.
Solona collapsed and now she wasn't moving. "Sister!" Daylen yelled again. "Sister, are you alright? Can you hear me?"
Miss Fontaine placed her hands on Solona's chest and felt a pulse. "She's alive." She said. "But something that that spirit did has affected her body. She needs some time to rest."
"All right" Sheppard said "Get a bed ready." Then he looked at Cassandra and Dorian. "And if you don't mind I would like to have a word about what's going on"
"I think we need to explain the truth to the Amell twins and their friends." Dorian said
"Will my sister be okay?" Daylen asked
"She'll be fine." Fontaine said.
"Crowler, Banner." Sheppard said. "I need you to get the second duel ready while I check what's going on."
"I don't think that's wise." Banner said. "Not after everything that's happened, many of the students are in shock over what happened. I think we should postpone the next duel for a few days until this business had blown over."
"Good idea." Sheppard sighed and then he looked at Crowler. "And I would like a word with you later Crowler in my office."
"Yes Chancellor." Crowler said
After the teachers had left and took Solona with them, the rest of Daylen's friends joined them.
"Will Solona be alright?" Kallian asked
"Yeah, she got hurt quite bad" Aedan added
"My sister is fine" Daylen said "But I fear that this is just the start."
"Why is that?" Sereda asked
"This is the second time we've heard of that name, Venatori." Daylen said. "Who are the Venatori? And what is it they want with my sister?"
Jaden then looked at Daylen "By the way, what's with that Monster Solona used? Urthemiel?"
"I admit, I've never heard of a card called Urthemiel before." Bastion said
Daylen sighed. "Solona would be better at explaining this, but Urthemiel as well as Razikale are part of a collection of 7 powerful monsters crated by our dad. They're one of a kind card and they were all stolen apart from one by a group of thieves. But father said that they are more powerful than we think. But I think that this is just the start. The Venatori will be back but when they come back, I will protect my sister."
"Well you can count on my help." Aedan said
"And mine." Theorn added
"Count me in." Neria added
"She's my friend too." Sereda said. "I'll help too."
"I just hope that Dorian and this Cassandra can help me understand." Daylen said. "Because I have a feeling that father has been hiding something from me and Solona."
