Oh no

“I’ll go first!” Kiko ripped out her first five cards, grinning. “I’ll summon Mermail Abysslung. She adds 300 to all WATER monsters, bringing her own attack up to 1500. Then, I’ll activate my field spell! Lemuria! It’s treated as Umi, causing my monster to go up to 1700. That’s that, though.”

“…Fine! I’ll summon Flamvell Magician. Then, I’ll tribute him to special summon Flamvell Commando. Then, I’ll banish my magician to do 1400 points of damage to you! THEN he’ll destroy your Abysslung!”

(K: 6100 LP, G: 8000)

Kiko yelped as her monster was taken out and she was hit full force by the flames and then the attack of the commando. She supposed it was her own fault for underestimating him as he ended his turn and she drew.

“Fine! Moray of Greed. I’ll shuffle Mermail Abyssdine and Atlantean Marksman into my deck and draw three cards! Then, with those three, I’ll summon Deep Sea Diva from my hand! Her effect activates and I summon Atlantean Attack Squad! Their attack increases by 800 because of Diva, and then by an additional 200 because of Lemuria! ATTACK. Then Diva attacks directly! Finally! TUNING. Attack Squad, Diva, call the lord of the depths, Gishilnodon!”

(K: 6100 G: 7400)

Geo looked over his hand, tching. He sets a monster (Laval Blaster), ends his turn.

Kiko draws. “Mermail Abyssturge! With her ability, I’ll discard Mermail Abysshilde and then HER effect activates! I’ll special summon Mermail Abyssbalaen! Finally, with the last bit of Abyssturge, I’ll add Diva back to my hand. Now.” She flashes a cruel smile, pointing at the lone defense monster. “Destroy. Abyssturge, go!” Laval blaster is destroyed as both Abyssturge and Gishilnodon smack Geo around.

(K: 6100 G: 2200)

He had gravely underestimated her, screwing around with his starting hand like that. His shirt and pants were dirty now, as he groaned and drew. How long had it been since he had been hurt? His second draw didn’t help. How the hell did she even get those amazing draws? He sighed, summoning Laval Warrior. If he was going to go out, it was going to be in style.

“My turn? Oh my, Geo! I didn’t think my brother was going to be THAT weak.” She drew, grin on her face. “First, I’ll activate Salvage! Adding My attack Squad and my Abysshilde back to my hand! Then! Moray of Greed, sending them BACK to my deck and drawing three more cards! Then, tell you what. I’ll give you an special treat, bro. Mermail Abysslung! But that’s not all. Construct the overlay network! Lurking in the darkest deeps, Abyssdweller! And because a WATER monster is attached as a material, all other water monsters gain 500 ATK! Bye-bye, big bro. Dweller, destroy his warrior! Now, Abyssbalaen and Gishilnodon! Finish this!”
