Dormitory Demolition

"I already told you Bonaparte." Rumiko said. "As headmistress of the Slifer Red Dorm, I will not allow you to tear it down."

"You're not going to stop me."

The two had been arguing non stop over the red dorm's fate.

"Calm down, you two." Crowler advised.

"Stay out of it, Crowler. You've had your chance to improve this school, and you've failed miserably. It's high time we get rid of the Slifer Dorm."

"You would need the Chancellor's approval to do that, and as I recall Crowler's not going to allow it to happen."

"She's right, Bonaparte."

"Why are you so determined to defend that dorm of slackers?" Bonaparte asked.

"Because they know what hard work is." Rumiko said. "Unlike those pampered rich Obelisk Blues who bought their way in. If you ask me they're the weak duelists."

"How about we settle this with a duel?" Bonaparte offered.

"Bring it." Rumiko challenged.

They failed to notice a blue-haired student eavesdropping on them. Syrus ran back to the red dorm to tell them what he overheard.

"Bonaparte's gonna tear down the dorm?" Jaden asked.

"Are you certain?" Bastion inquired.

"I thought Jaden defeating Aster the other day and Bonaparte having half of his salary cut to support areas that need it along with a quarter of the Blue Dorm's budget would've taught Bonaparte to back off and not mess with Rumiko by now." Tyson stated.

"I guess that made Bonaparte madder than ever." Davis added.

"What are your thoughts on the matter?" He asked Ryan.

"Bonaparte needs to let this go." He muttered.

The Shiba siblings nodded.

"I heard Rumiko and Bonaparte were going to duel."

"What's the point of us dueling in front of the students?" Rumiko asked.

Everyone saw her and Bonaparte walking towards the dorm.

"Having second thoughts?" Bonaparte mocked.

"I just don't want to humiliate you in front of the students."

"In your dreams." Bonaparte scoffed.

"Bonaparte is gonna be in for a huge beat down." Kaoru spoke.

"We're in for a sweet duel." Jaden said.

The two prepared to duel while Chazz went into one of the rooms with a couple paint cans.

"I can't wait to see what kind of duel this will be."

"Jaden, you should be more concerned about this." Alexis sighed.

"Indeed. If Bonaparte wins, then the Red dorm will be demolished." Bastion pointed out.

"Who are they?" Syrus asked.

Syrus pointed to the side, indicating a group of construction workers.

"Don't know." Hassleberry admitted, before asking. "And what's with the power shovel over there?"

"We better evacuate the Slifer dorm." Alexis said.

"We already told everyone to do that." Kaoru replied.

Meanwhile, Chazz was painting one of the rooms white.

"Soon all the kids in the school will leave their dorm and join the Society of Light."

"This is your final opportunity to back down." Bonaparte told Rumiko.

"Fat chance." She scoffed. "I'll defend this dorm to the end."

"Go Rumiko." Jaden cheered her on.

"You had your chance."

Bonaparte: 4000

Rumiko: 4000

"I'll take the first move and I summon Toy Soldier in attack mode."

Toy Soldier: 800/300

"Cute little guy, don't you think?" Jaden asked the others.

"Haven't you heard the saying, big things come in small packages." Davis noted.

"Next, I place three cards face down and end my turn."

"It's my move and I summon Divine Dragon Ragnarok."

Divine Dragon Ragnarok: 1500/1000

"Before you continue, I should mention that whenever you lose life points part of the red dorm will be torn down."

"Are you insane?" Rumiko snapped.

"The dorm's already been evacuated, so you can proceed with the duel." Kaoru told her.

"Thank god for that." Rumiko sighed in relief as she continued her turn.

"Divine Dragon Ragnarok attack Toy Soldier." Rumiko ordered.

"I activate the trap card Toy Cannon. Your dragon will switch to defense position and deal 400 points of damage to you."

A cannon appeared on Bonaparte's field before it launched a small cannonball at Divine Dragon Ragnarok, knocking it out of the sky.

Rumiko: 3600

"And now I activate the continuous trap, Gulliver Chain. If your dragon switches to attack position, it will be destroyed. So, is my army well equipped?"

"I'm not out just yet. I use Polymerization to fuse Divine Dragon Ragnarok and Lord of D."

"Bonaparte's gonna get it." Tyson said.

"Say hello to King Dragun."

King Dragun: 2400/1100

"I'll end my turn with that."

"My turn." Bonaparte drew a card. "And during the standby phase, Toy Soldier's effect activates, allowing me to summon additional Toy Soldiers from my deck."

*'None of his monsters are strong enough to deal with King Dragun. Unless he intends to tribute them.'* Rumiko thought.

"Rumiko is taking Bonaparte seriously." Davis noted.

"Are you aware of the necessary traits for success in battle?" Bonaparte asked her.

"Of course. Strategy, discipline and knowledge. There's more, but we'd be here all day if I said them. What's your point?"

"My point is, as the head of a dorm of slackers, you have none of those qualities."

"Shows how close-minded you are and how little you know." Rumiko snapped back. "The Slifer Red's have every right to be here."

"I beg to differ. I activate Forced March. By halving the attack of all my soldiers, they can attack you directly."

"Forward march!" Bonaparte shouted.

His soldiers charged across the battlefield, but stopped halfway, panting for breath.

"It's not so bad." Tyson said. "Unless Bonaparte has something else in store."

"I activate Fife and Drum Core. This doubles the attack of all the monsters on my field that have 1000 or less attack until the end of the turn."

"This is gonna hurt." Davis grimaced.

"Fire!" Bonaparte ordered.

The soldiers aimed their weapons at Rumiko and fired corks at her, two hitting her in the chest and one hitting her in the stomach, causing her to fall to her knees.

The Shiba siblings and Ryan winced.

"That's gotta hurt." Hassleberry remarked.

"Tell me about it." Jaden said. "Rumiko's still in this though."

Rumiko: 400

"Your life is hanging on by a mere thread."

"I will never surrender." Rumiko declared. "I have life points, so I still have a chance."

"That would be a lot more moving if she could stand on her feet."

Rumiko managed to get to her feet.

"Since my direct attack was successful, I can activate the continuous trap Unequal Treaty. While this is active, every time you draw a card you lose 100 life points and I gain 100 life points. I'll end my turn with a face down card."

*'This isn't going to be good. There's only 4 turns remaining before I lose.'* Rumiko thought.

She then saw a way out with three of the cards in her hand.

*'Nebula Dragon. I can special summon it and another level 8 dragon from my hand.'*

"Alright then, I reveal Nebula Dragon in my hand to special summon both it and Galactic Spiral Dragon from my hand."

Nebula Dragon: 3000/0

Galactic Spiral Dragon: 2500/2500

"Next I play A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon. Nebula Dragon is returned to my hand and all your spell and trap cards are destroyed."

Bonaparte's face downs were destroyed.

"I haven't activated King Dragun's special ability yet. I can special summon a Dragon monster and the one I choose is Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon."

Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon: 2800/2400

"Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon can also special summon a Dragon from my hand or graveyard and I bring Nebula Dragon back to the field."

Nebula Dragon: 3000/0

"Anything you care to say now?" Rumiko asked, glaring at Bonaparte.

"I surrender." Bonaparte waved a flag.

"Too late!" Rumiko glared. "Consider this punishment for trying to expel the Slifer Reds and demolish their dorm."

Bonaparte whimpered in pure fear.

"Now my dragons." Rumiko roared. "OBLITERATE!"

All of the Toy Soldiers and Bonaparte's life points were instantly wiped out.

Bonaparte: 0

"Boys get to work." Rumiko said to the construction workers as they went to work on repairing the Red dorm and upgrading it as well.

"She did it!" Syrus cheered.

"And I recorded the entire duel." Kaoru said. "Something to show the Obelisk Blues."

"This will let them know that messing with the Slifer Reds is a bad idea." Davis added.

"I won this duel, so you're going to leave the Red Dorm alone." Rumiko insisted.

Dead terrified of incurring Rumiko's wrath, Bonaparte was close to wetting himself in pure fear that he nodded and fled as fast as he could.

Chazz then came out of the dorm, seeing the construction workers work to repair the dorm.

"What did I miss?" He asked out loud.

"A lot." Tyson snapped.
