Chapter 30 – Quick and Easy*Last chapter Ryan is told by the Dark Master to locate a power supplying temple called “The Hall of Viminia”. Ryan figured out the one person who would know about it – Whyet. Ryan hunted Whyet down, which wasn’t difficult because Whyet had been following Ryan around all day and Ryan knew that while Whyet didn’t know Ryan knew. (I kinda like that sentence lol) Ryan wanted answers from Whyet but Whyet said he would only tell Ryan if he defeated him in a duel. Ryan accepted, and the duel begun.
*Whyet’s right arm shines yellow and a duel disk is formed with a deck inside. Ryan’s right arm becomes covered with the Pure-Black Aura and a duel disk is formed with a deck inside. both players draw their opening hands and their Life Points are set to 4000.
Ryan and
Whyet: let’s duel!
Ryan: (drawing a card) get ready! I summon
Aeoleus, Falling Wind!
*a fierce Wind tainted with Pure-Black Aura streams appears as Aeoleus materializes in the Wind.Whyet: (to himself) an Aeolus counterpart?
Ryan: next I’ll lay this face down and let you go.
*turn moves to Whyet.Whyet: (drawing a card) I activate
Mystical Space Typhoon!
[Mystical Space Typhoon - Destroy 1 Spell or Trap Card on the field.]*a tornado appears from the ground up underneath Ryan’s face down. Inverted Spirits is sent to the graveyard.Whyet: (to himself while looking at Sarah) I will do my best too protect you. (to Ryan) Next I activate another Spell card. this ones called
Foolish Burial and it lets me send my Wulf to the graveyard.
[Foolish Burial - Select 1 monster from your Deck and send it to the Graveyard.]*Wulf, Lightsworn Beast is sent to the graveyard from Whyet’s deck.Whyet: and now I activate my beast’s special effect. When he’s sent to the graveyard from my deck I can special summon him to the field. so rise up,
Wulf, Lightsworn Beast!
[Wulf, Lightsworn Beast/LIGHT/Beast-Warrior/4/2100/300/ This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. When this card is sent from your Deck to the Graveyard, Special Summon it.]*Whyet’s duel disk shines yellow and a yellow wave shoots out from his graveyard section of his duel disk. Wulf is summoned from the light in attack mode.Whyet: remember this guy Ryan?
*Ryan just stares at Whyet with a serious look and says nothing.Whyet: no? well here’s a little reminder! Wulf, Lightsworn Beast attack his Aeoleus! Shining Claw!
*the 3 Dagger-like claws shine yellow as Wulf lunges towards Aeoleus. Aeoleus is destroyed and Ryan takes 400 points of damage. Current LP = 3600.Whyet: you’re still a slacker of a duelist. I’m disappointed too see that this is what you’ve done with your life Ryan.
Ryan: are you done running your mouth? Cause I would like to finish this.
Whyet: we’ll see what happens. But I’ll play this face down and I end my turn.
*turn moves to Ryan.
Ryan’s LP = 3600
Ryan’s hand = 4
Whyet’s LP = 4000
Whyet’s hand = 3
*Ryan draws a card and chuckles after looking at the card.Ryan: I’m disappointed as well Whyet. Disappointed because after our first duel I was expecting at least the same challenge you gave me the first time. The way you’ve played today is, well, rather careless.
Whyet: what are you talking about?
Ryan: oh you’ll see. Right now.
*Sarah and Trey are watching from about 20 feet away.Trey: I have a bad feeling about this turn.
Sarah: why?
Trey: in my duel with Ryan, he had the same look on his face when he drew that card.
Sarah: (realizes what Trey’s talking about) do you think Whyet can handle it?
Trey: I hope so. Let’s just give him all our support. Its all we can do for now.
*Whyet becomes nervous but tries not to show it. a small sweat drops down his cheek.Ryan: time too say goodbye, Whyet.
*The Pure-Black Aura appears around Ryan. The wind picks up and streams of the Black Aura are flying around in the air. The clouds darken and come together right above Ryan and Whyet’s duel.Ryan: First I activate Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy that face down of yours!
*a tornado appears below the targeted card as its destroyed. Bottomless Trap Hole is sent to the graveyard.Ryan: and now I activate
Nightmare Calling!
*a circle opens up in the clouds right above the playing field. Black lightning strikes inside the circle as if it jumps from one side of the circle to the other.Trey: I knew it…
Sarah: Whyet be careful!
Ryan: there’s nothing you 2 can do too stop me so shut up! Now then, my Nightmare Calling allows me to discard monsters in my hand and total up there levels to summon a Falling Monster whose level is equal too or lower than the total level of the discarded monsters. So I discard
Aniren, Falling Hope,
Ardrak, Falling Frost, and
Barmedra, Falling Torrent.
*the spirits of the 3 monsters appear. The Pure-Black Aura appears around them. The spirits vanish in the Aura as the Aura shoots up into the hole in the clouds.Ryan: I summon
Arkanor, Falling Death!
*a Pure-Black Aura streams from the hole in the sky as it takes the shape of a large creature. The Aura fades away and Arkanor is visible as he’s summoned from Ryan’s deck.Whyet: that’s…the counterpart of Arkados. This can’t be good.
Ryan: and my Arkanor has a very special ability. He can choose to do battle with either the Attack or the Defense points of the monster he chooses. So once I declare the attack on Wulf I’ll be using your Lightsworn Beast’s mere 300 defense points!
Whyet: I will still have points left. Don’t count me out yet!
Ryan: we’ll see if you can even stand up after this attack! Remember what you told me? All the attacks are felt as real and they do indeed hurt.
*Whyet looks up at Arkanor. His right arm begins to shake as Whyet trembles with fear that this could be the end of him.Whyet: (to himself) I have to believe I can survive.
Sarah: (looking at Whyet) my hope for you remains strong Whyet.
Ryan: your time has come Whyet! Arkanor attack his Wulf with Inverted Blaze!
*Arkanor roars. He opens his jaw and a Pure-Black light appears inside. the light is fired and is instantly changed to a Pure-Black Aura Flame. The attack strikes Wulf, Lightsworn Beast and causes him to be destroyed. The black flames spring off Wulf and onto Whyet, which now burns him and causes him to take 3700 points of damage. Whyet falls to the ground.
Current LP = 300.Trey: oh no, Whyet!
Sarah: is he ok?
*after about 3 long minutes of waiting Whyet’s body shakes as he struggles to move. Ryan notices and claps his hands.Ryan: well well I’m impressed Whyet. But I feel that the smallest attack could destroy you. And it’s still my turn and I have one card left in my hand.
*Whyet lifts up his head, he has one eye open and his sight is blurry.Ryan: (calmly) I activate,
Inverted Curse to add Aeolus back to my hand. And my curse also deals 700 points of damage to you.
*a Pure-Black Aura Wisp floats around Whyet. Whyet feels a burning sensation as he receives 700 points of damage. Current LP = 0. Whyet lies on the ground breathing heavily.Sarah: no!
*Sarah attempts to run over to Whyet but as soon as she takes one step foreword a wall made of the Pure-Black Aura appears in a circle formation around her and Trey. Sarah reaches out to touch the wall but Trey grabs her arm to stop her.Trey: I wouldn’t do that. This stuff seemed to burn Whyet like a fire.
Sarah: but I can’t just stay here and do nothing Trey! I cant even see through this stuff to know what’s going on…
Trey: I know. It’s not fair. But we have to believe Whyet will be ok.
*Sarah falls to her knees and begins to tear.Sarah: I just want the old Ryan back…
*outside the Aura circle, Ryan walks over to Whyet and kneels down in front of him.Ryan: quick and easy. Time to hold up your end of the bargain.
Whyet: (struggling) I won’t talk.
Ryan: you don’t have too. But it would be much easier on you if you do.
Whyet: I won’t.
Ryan: suit yourself. There’s more than one way too find out the information you hold.
*Ryan puts his hand on Whyet’s head and lifts him up off the ground. The Pure-Black Aura appears around Ryan’s hand. After about 17 seconds, Ryan drops Whyet.Whyet: (struggling) what did you just do?
Ryan: I found out the information you were hiding from me. The Aura entered your mind and told me everything you know about Viminia. And it was painful, wasn’t it Whyet?
*Whyet’s head drops to the ground and he becomes unconscious.Ryan: thanks for the help.
*the Pure-Black Aura appears around Ryan and within seconds he vanishes, along with the wall of Aura that was around Sarah and Trey.Sarah: look it’s gone!
Trey: is that Whyet?
*they run over to Whyet. Whyet struggles a little bit, but manages to stand up.Sarah: thank god. I thought you were dead…
Whyet: well I won’t lie, but I barely survived. I just had to make it look like I was out cold until Ryan left. That way I knew it was safe to talk to you. Ryan now knows where the Hall of Viminia is. If he gets there before we do there is no telling what he could become. He will be too powerful and I wont know how too stop him. Sarah, you are our last hope.
Sarah: and I’ve been thinking about a plan. I have one but it’s all gonna rely on luck and how my deck comes together.
Whyet: it will all work out. And I have something too help you.
*Whyet fades away and leaves behind a ball of light. Inside the light is a card. Sarah grabs it and hears Whyet’s voice.Whyet’s voice: all my strength is now in this card. it was made just for the situation we are in. you will know when the time comes to use it.
Sarah: I won’t let you down.
*Trey puts his hand on Sarah’s shoulder. She turns around and Trey gives her a smile.Trey: you can do this Sarah. I’ll help out anyway I can.
*Sarah nods.Sarah: its time to get the old Ryan back.
