Its time for Duel!

(Author Note: If you get the reference about this duel, I'll give you a gold star!)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

''D-Duel, you say?!''

''What? won't you tell me you're scared? If so, we can stop it now, little girl!'' The angel, as if he had changed his personality, began to make fun of Diana, leaving her perplexed.

''What the fuck?! Where did the nice and gentle angel just go?!''

''Sorry girl, but I don't play nice in a duel!''

Losing patience with the angel, Diana decided that she wouldn't play nice anymore either. ''Tch, whatever. I will still continue the duel! And you can start, you fucking chicken! I will destroy you!''

''Heh, that's the spirit!''

'' '' Duel!!'' '' As they said these words, a scoreboard appeared on top of their heads.

Angel: 8000 LP;

Diana: 8000 LP;

''As you said, I will go first! I Draw!'' The angel and Diana drew five cards, and then the angel took another card from his duel disk. Seeing the cards he had in his hands he smiled brightly, as if victory had already knocked at his door.

''I told you you wouldn't have a chance to win! I activate a spell from my hand, Polymerization! And with this magic, I fusion-summon!'' When the angel activate the spell, three more cards that were in his hand go to the graveyard.

''Appear and destroy the enemy, Neo Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon!'' Suddenly, a huge three-headed dragon, which glows blue like a sci-fi machine appeared from the ground.

Neo Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon . Dragon/Effect/ Fusion . ATK: 4500/ DEF: 3800;

*ROOOOAR*

'What the hell? A blue eyes deck, and he started like that?!He summoned something like this in the first turn?! This is bullshit!' Diana thought as she saw the angel's move.

''And I end my turn by playing two face down cards! If you want to give up, the time is now!''

''As if! But I have a question, is this deck on my duel disk the deck I had when I was alive?''

''Yes it is. No need to worry, all the cards in your deck are there. Now make your move.''

''Right! I Draw!'' Taking another card from the dueling disc, Diana quickly set up a strategy in her head.

''First, I activate my spell card, Dark Magic Veil! This card allows me to make a special summon of a mage type monster from my hand or graveyard, paying a thousand life points! Come, Dark Magician!'' In a burst of black smoke, a man dressed as a wizard appeared in front of Diana, facing the dragon.

Dark Magician . Spellcaster/Normal . ATK: 2500/ DEF: 2100;

Angel: 8000 LP;

Diana: 8000 - 1000 LP -> 7000 LP;

''And I'm not done yet! As there is a Black Mage in my field, I activate the magic Thousand Knives! This spell allows me to destroy a monster of yours if I control a dark mage monster! And with that I will destroy your Neo Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon!'' Activating the spell, countless knives fly towards the dragon monster.

''Heh, not bad! I activate my trap card, Dark Sacrifice! With this trap card, I can negate the effect of a trap card or spell that would destroy my monster by discarding a level three or lower Dark Monster card from my deck to the Graveyard! And I choose this card!'' As the knifes approached the dragon, a monster that looked like a clown appeared in front of the dragon, being destroyed in the process.

''Damn it....I end my turn by playing two face down cards.''

''I Draw!'' The angel drew one more card, but seeing no need to continue, he simply attacked.

''You made a good move there, but now it's over! Neo Blue Eyes, attack the black mage!''

*ROOOOAR*

The dragon's middle head, accumulated a large ball of blue energy in the mouth, and shot towards the black mage.

*BOOOOM*

The explosion created a huge smokescreen in the place where the black magician and Diana were.

''And now that you don't have a monster protecting you, I can activate my dragon's effect and attack you again, you're done!''

As the angel was about to continue his turn, suddenly purple chains came out of the smokescreen towards the three-headed Dragon, imprisoning him.

''What?!''

''Not this time! I activate the trap card, Time Chain! With it, if you attack my monster, I can imprison mine and your monster for two turns, and during that time, they are treated as if they don't exist on the field, and their effects are negated!''

''Tch, you're just delaying the inevitable! I end my turn.''

''I Draw!''

''I Summon in Attack Position Celtic Guard of Noble Arms!'' An armored elf-like monster appeared on the field '' And I activate his effect! By activating his effect, I can summon a Celtic Guard from my hand!'' Another elf in armor appeared, but this one had green armor, while the other had blue armor.

Celtic Guardian of Noble Arms . Warrior/Effect . ATK: 2100/ DEF: 700;

Celtic Guardian . Warrior . ATK: 1400/ DEF 1200;

''And since I have no cards in my hand, my two Celtic Guardians can attack! And since your dragon is trapped by my magic, they directly attack your hit points!''

''Shit!'' The two elf monsters brandished their swords and attacked the angel directly with flashes of light.

''Urgh!''

Angel: 8000 PL - 3500 PL -> 4500 PL;

Diana: 7000 PL;

''Now that i've attacked you, I activate another effect of my celtic guardian, I can draw cards according to the amount of celtic guardians I have on the field! So I buy two cards and end my turn!''

The angel had a disbelieving face as he watched his hit points drop, but after a few seconds he started laughing hard. ''Hahahahahaha! Great! It's been a while since I've had such an exciting duel! I draw!''

''As your Time Chain trap card is still active, I can activate my monster's effect which summons him by special summoning if there are no monsters in my field! Appear, Kaiser Vorse Raider!''

Kaiser Vorse Raider . Beast-Warrior/Effect . ATK: 1900/DEF: 1200;

''Now, Kaiser, attack the Celtic Guardian!''

''Grohw!''

*BANG*

Angel: 4500 LP;

Diana: 7000 - 500 LP -> 6500 LP;

''And since my Kaiser has destroyed a monster of yours, his second effect is activated, and it gains five hundred more Attack points!''

Kaiser Vorse Raider . Beast-Warrior/Effect . ATK: 2400/DEF: 1200;

''And with that I finish my turn!''

Diana had a neutral face, but inside, she was in a chaotic state . 'I'm in the lead, but that can change completely next turn depending on which card I draw because I only have two cards, and one it's a level six monster. Please let something useful come...!'

''I Draw!'' Seeing the card she took on her duel disk, she smiled.

''Two turns have passed, so my Black Mage are back in the game!'' The chains that previously held the Black Magician broke, Diana continued.

''I activate my magic card, Magical Dimension! This spell allows me to tribute a monster I control if I have a Spellcaster type monster on the field to do a special summon! I tribute the Celtic Guardian of Noble Arms, and from my hand, I summon Dark Magician Girl!''

Dark Magician Girl. Spellcaster/Effect. ATK:2000/DEF:1700;

''And there is more! After doing this special summon, I can destroy a monster you control, and I destroy your monster Kaiser!'' In a flash of light, the targeted monster was sent directly to the graveyard.

''And now that you don't have any monsters, I can attack you directly! Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl, attack!''

''Not so fast! I activate my trap card, Induced Explosion!''

''What?! Shit!''

''That's right! If you dont wanna lose your precious mages, it's better if you don't attack!'' The angel showed a smug expression to Diana.

''Tch.....I end my turn by playing one face down card!''

''Oww, don't make such a sad expression! It was a good duel! I Draw!''

''Now that two turns have passed and it's my turn, my dragon is free from its trap! Now, Neo Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon, attack the Black Mages with Neon Blast!''

*ROOOAR*

When Diana heard the confident angel declare an attack without placing support cards, she gave a smile that chilled the angel.

''I got you, you arrogant chicken! I activate my trap card, Dimension Reflector! Banishing my two mages, this card transforms into a mirror monster with the same attack points as your Neo Blue Eyes! And finally, you take direct damage equal to those same attack points!''

''W-What?! Impossible! Did you put this card from the beginning hoping for this result? You set me up?!''

''Hehe, it's too late now, say bye bye to your life points!''

The dragon released a great blue blast from its mouth, which the mirror absorbed, and returned the attack towards the angel.

''Nooooooo!''

*BOOOM*

Angel: 0 LP;

Diana: 6500 LP;

Seeing the angel's hit points reach zero, Diana dropped to her knees and sighed 'Phew, I can't believe I won, luck really was on my side this time, or would I say the heart of the cards? If I hadn't drawn this card at the end, I would have completely lost'

The angel who was lying on the ground after receiving the attack, got up as if nothing had happened and walked towards Diana with a smile on his face.

''Congratulations, I didn't expect you to really beat me, you were really lucky! It's the first time something like this has happened.'' The angel extended his hand towards Diana to help her up.

''This was a fun duel, I can't do that much as few angels like this game.''

''Thank you, honestly I was apprehensive that the universe or something would favor you.'' Diana took the angel's outstretched hand and stood up.

''Oh please. I could have done it, but what's the fun? Remember, my superiors only allowed it because they wanted entertainment, and what's the fun in a game where the winner is favored?''

''Yes, I think you're right...so.....can I have my three wishes?'' Diana asked a little unsure.

''Yes you can, say what you want, and if it's something I can accomplish, I'll do it.''

''Really?! Thanks!'' Diana happily jumped up and hugged the angel, who just smiled helplessly.

Stopping hugging the angel and walking away from him, Diana said enthusiastically ''Then, for my first wish....''

Sorry about the suspense, I already have the wishes in mind, but I want to think a little more and elaborate more. So it will be for the next chapter, I know how annoying this is, so sorry again.
