《Pro-Gonda》


 Chapter 1

    Pro-Gonda


    Gavin was playing with cards he made when he had an idea, the dark haired man rushed over to his writing desk and placed all the cards in a neat stack to prepare for his plan, he drew a symbol around the cards and chanted something in an ancient language. Suddenly all the cards glistened in different colors before shooting out the window in all directions he was only able to catch one of his cards as all the others disappeared in the distance.


    ¡° I have a feeling it¡¯s going to take a while to find all these cards¡± Gavin brushed the dark hair out of his eyes as he set the card on the table.


    ¡°Hmm, it¡¯s about 5:30 p.m. at the moment, I guess I can search for about one hour before it gets too late¡± he left the house in search of any cards in the area but after an hour of searching he had no luck, seemed as those all the cards had gone farther than expected.


    ¡°Damn it, looks like I¡¯ll have to search tomorrow¡±


    CHAPTER 1 Just A Game


    Gavin sat up in his bed rubbing his eyes then laid there for about ten minutes before finally getting out of bed. He looked at his card, it seemed to shine in the sunlight.


    ¡°Well time to go over to my girl¡¯s house and see what she¡¯s doing before work¡± Gavin put on his favorite black shirt and blue jeans before leaving the house, He kept thinking about the cards that dispersed out his window far from his area.


    ¡°Still curious to why the cards reacted that way, didn¡¯t seem to describe it like that when I was studying the spell¡± Just then his girlfriend opened the door, she had long dark brown hair and brown eyes with a shade of green.


    ¡°Hey babe¡± she said smiling at him, she gave him a big hug not letting go. The guy started to blush as his girl continued to hold on to him.


    ¡°Heh babe, this is a very long hug¡± she didn¡¯t say anything but just snuggled her head into his shirt. Suddenly a girl let out an enormous screen out in the distance, Gavin felt something


    ¡°Heh babe, this is a very long hug¡± she didn¡¯t say anything but just snuggled her head into his shirt. Suddenly a girl let out an enormous scream out in the distance, Gavin felt something in his pocket and quickly pulled it out, it was the card he had left on the desk. It seemed to have a purple aura swarming around itself.


    ¡°What the hell?¡± The ground shook as a dark purple beam shot down from the sky to one point, the guy hurried over to the impact point to see someone holding one of his cards that were lost.


    ¡°I have a bad feeling about this¡± the dark haired boy said to himself.


    ¡°Ah, I see you have a card as well, the cards of Gohidem are very unique, you never realize how powerful your creature is until the final moments of the battle¡±


    ¡°You are?¡± Gavin asked holding his card tightly in the palm of his hand.


    ¡°Oh yes, I must apologize for not introducing myself, I am Johnny Delmare and was surprised to find one of these cards just laying in the street¡± Johnny brushed the brown hair out of his hazel eyes with a smile.


    ¡°Look, for I hold the Alacaid card¡± The picture showed a giant kraken-like creature that had glowing eyes, it was if it was a mix of a kraken and a titan.


    ¡°Let us see who has luck in their favor¡± Johnny faced the card towards his opponent,


    ¡°Omega Kraken!¡± the card began to glow and the man tossed the card a few feet ahead of him. The Kraken emerged from the normal playing card and faced it¡¯s target. Gavin was shaking in fear and quickly looked at the name of his creature,


    ¡° psychic mind¡± as before the card began to glow so the guy copied Johnny by tossing the card in front of him as well. A giant skull made out of metal emerged, it¡¯s robotic eyes were green and it stared at the Kraken.


    ¡°Heh, a noob like you has no chance of beating me with that type of creature...Omega, attack¡± The Omega Kraken let out an ear scrapping wale before reaching for the target with one of it¡¯s massive scaly hands. The floating skull vanished at the last second causing the kraken to hit the street.


    ¡°Hmph, I¡¯ll admit when it comes to speed, yours seems to show promise...however speed is only a fraction of what¡¯s needed to win a fight!¡± Johnny pointed towards the boy signaling his creature to finish the battle. The giant sea monster made a fist and threw it straight down at the open opponent. Just as it seemed over, a flash of light blinded the giant kraken, it missed the final blow and struck a car with incredible force.


    ¡°What''s going on!?¡± Johnny yelled shielding his eyes, Gavin''s creature had come back, it charged up energy and shot green lasers out of it''s eyes. The Gigantic monster cried out in pain until Gavin''s creature halted it''s assault. The beast hit the ground making a large crater from it''s impact.


    ¡°No, I couldn''t have lost...you didn''t even know how to use the cards when we started!¡±


    ¡°Yeah, thanks for teaching me¡± Gavin responded pointing at his defeated foe. The skull charged up for another attack,


    ¡°Alright I''m going...but you''ll see me again¡± The Kraken had gone back in the card but it wasn''t glowing or shiny anymore.


    ¡°Looks like the glow represents the card''s life force or power¡±


    Gavin was about to sit and rest when he hard his girl running up to him.


    ¡°Are you ok!?¡± She cried holding him tightly.


    ¡°I''m fine Marcia don''t worry¡± she frowned still worried. He lifted her head up with his hand and looked into her eyes,


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry¡± he repeated. She nodded with her head on his chest¡­


    When Gavin finally convinced Marcia to go to work, he locked the house and went to search for more cards, it was around one when his card psychic mind began to give off it''s aura once more.


    ¡°I must be near another card, that''s probably what makes the cards act like this¡± The boy was in a field with just a farm and store in the distance. Finally he found the card on top of a bush. Once he slid the card in his pocket, the other card stopped giving off it''s aura.


    The card he found was called: ¡°The blue demon¡± and it had a picture of a demonic creature with glowing blue eyes.


    ¡°Alright, at least now I have two cards, should make my way back before I get lost¡± After an hour or so of walking, The boy had made it back to his house. Gavin fell asleep as soon as he got in bed¡­


    After a few hours of sleep he awoke and turned to his clock, it was six and the sun was beginning to go down. He looked at his cards for bit before setting them back on his desk. The next day the guy decided to just spend the day with his girl Marcia.


    ¡°Morning¡± the boy said walking over to his girl that was just laying on the couch watching TV. Gavin sat down next to her and she laid her had on his stomach.


    ¡°What do you want to watch?¡± she asked looking up at him with her head looking up at him.


    ¡°Up to you babe, I¡¯m just glad we¡¯re spending time together¡± She giggled and just turned her head back to the TV. After awhile Marcia was in the kitchen making lasagna, her boyfriend was on his smartphone researching the effects of the spell he had used:


    ¡°Whatever is affected by this spell will eventually have changes on the item that are unknown¡±


    ¡°Hmm, seems it¡¯s unknown what¡¯s going to happen to what¡¯s ever affected by the dark magic¡± After about an hour the food was finally ready, Gavin sat down at the table as Marcia set a plate down in front of him.


    ¡°Thanks¡± he responded before picking up his fork. They ate every piece of the lasagna until there was nothing left.


    ¡°You have something on your face babe¡± She quickly grabbed her napkin and wiped the red sauce off her boyfriend¡¯s face.


    ¡°Better she commented kissing his cheek¡± The guy blushed looking at her then picked up his plate, cleaning it off in the sink. When he was about to sit down, the two cards he had left on his desk down the street came soaring like two purple shooting stars. They were blocked by the window unable to get in. The boy got up opening the closed window. The two cards rushed in landing in his hands.


    ¡°He let out a sigh, I don¡¯t wanna deal with this right now, I want to spend the day with my Marcia¡± Gavin quickly ran outside but couldn¡¯t find anything out of the ordinary, the young adult checked all over but couldn¡¯t find a card or any people around.


    ¡°This doesn¡¯t make sense, my cards are giving off their aura again, that should mean there¡¯s another card nearby¡± Just then Gavin heard a little kid cry out:


    ¡°Sweet I found some kind of playing card, it looks rare too!¡± The small light brown haired boy picked it up looking at it with interest.


    ¡°Oh no, if he figures out how to use it then I could be in a lot of trouble...I have to take that card from him before something bad happens¡± Gavin found a bush and hid in the empty part of it to get close before he attempted to take the card from the kid. The guy rolled out from the bush swiping the card from the child¡¯s hand.


    ¡°These aren¡¯t for kids, they¡¯re deadly a kid was killed by them a few months ago¡± The small boy¡¯s eyes widened before he ran off screaming.


    ¡°Well that solves that problem, might as well see what card I got...strange, this isn¡¯t one of the card I had during the spell...could it be affecting all the cards in the city!?¡±


    Gavin told Marcia he had to go home to do something, she nodded sad and gave him one last hug. Gavin kissed her forehead before rushing to his house.


    ¡°This can¡¯t be possible, this card wasn¡¯t in the circle I drew for the ritual or whatever you¡¯d call it¡± He examined the card for a while before placing it by his others.


    ¡°That makes three he commented before falling asleep¡­ The tired man did not awake until finally hearing his phone go off. He slowly grabbed it still barely awake, it was twelve in the afternoon. There were four texts from his girlfriend worrying about him.


    {Marcia}


    ¡°Morning


    Are you ok?


    I¡¯m worried about you


    hope you¡¯re safe I¡¯ll drop by your house at five after work¡±


    He spent the day studying his cards hoping he wouldn¡¯t have to fight in a death match against anyone who found a card. It was five days before his cards released their signals once more.


    ¡°Great, another card or user is close¡± The boy literally rolled out of bed landing on the hard wooden floor on his back. He aimed his hand at the three cards and they drifted across the room into his hands.


    ¡°Good...I didn¡¯t have to get up to get them¡± Once he had on new clean clothes the guy left the house to see if the user or card was in sight¡­


    ¡°Hmm, still no ray of light or anything that would easily catch my attention. These cards are going to take forever to comprehend¡± Just as the dark haired boy was about to take another step, a fireball flew past him, nearly touching the side of his cheek. The flaming sphere blew up a car on impact, sending a faint shockwave in all directions. He turned to see a tan skinned teen with dark brown hair and hazel eyes.


    ¡°Hello, my cards have alerted me that you also play the game of Gohidem, I won¡¯t lose to you no matter what type of cards you have!¡±


    ¡°How do so many people know about this game so clearly when I made it up except for the name!?¡± Gavin placed his Blue Demon card down in the center of the street in front of his new foe. A creature made entirely of fire came into view beside him.


    ¡°Wait, where¡¯s your creature¡¯s card?¡± the confused player asked.


    ¡°Heh, you need to learn more about these cards, certain level creatures don¡¯t have a range limit of their card, also don¡¯t have to go back in it either, even if low on power¡±


    ¡°Attack Blue Demon!¡± the user commanded, it flew straight for the teen but was protected by a wall of fire that shot up from the ground. Gavin¡¯s creature ascended up into the clouds before opening its mouth. A powerful flash of lightning shot out of its mouth that avoided the fire wall, striking both the guy and his creature. The creature became three separate balls of fire before merging back together. The demon stayed high in the air, not keeping it¡¯s eyes off the target.


    ¡°G-go firebayga!¡± The creature shot out a powerful fireball that went soaring straight for Blue demon. Gavin¡¯s ally ascended up through the clouds attempting to escape the flaming ball of fire, the projectile was closing in each second, getting closer and closer. Blue Demon maneuvered back down towards the sphere, it was an inch from the monster¡¯s face before it dogged the attack at the las second.


    ¡°W-wha?¡± the weak guy exclaimed as his foe¡¯s ally flew straight towards him. It punched the open enemy in the chest, causing him to cough out blood before losing consciousness.


    Firebayda let out a loud screech at the sight of it¡¯s owner defeated. The flaming bird-like creature charged Gavin with a barrier of fire swarming around itself, the boy had an idea, he rolled out of the way with just a small scorch mark on his shirt¡¯s sleeve. The dark-haired boy ran over to his out cold opponent looking through his pockets¡­


    ¡°I think this is what I¡¯m searching for!¡± Gavin pulled out a card that was blank not having any creature or info on it. He aimed the card in the direction of the scorching beast, a ray of light shot out of the front of the card heading for the bird. The beam managed to make contact with the creature beginning to pull it towards the card. It struggled to escape the light¡¯s grip but it proceeded towards the holder¡¯s card. Finally Firebayda was sealed inside the card in a flash of silver light.


    ¡°It worked!¡± the proud boy cheered staring at the picture of the bird on the card. He pulled a cardholder out of the blacked out teen where the boy put his current cards.


    ¡°Good, at the moment I have four cards¡± He took out a miniature notebook and wrote down things he¡¯s noticed so far:


    1.) Cards release energy near other cards.


    2.) High level creatures are capable of staying out of its card even when beaten.


    3.) Blank cards can capture monsters by pointing the face of the card in the direction of the holder¡¯s target.


    Before he could finish writing, a light dragon appeared in dazzling rays with a noise pillar staff,


    Don¡¯t be comfortable with just four cards¡± let¡¯s go find more. You may not have the opportunity of getting to the transparent card again. I mean master of all the cards. Whoever lays hands to them before you, believe me, he''s going to bust you. I''m Zuaranda"


    As the weeks turned into months Gavin had ten cards even though you''re only able to use five in a battle. He didn¡¯t see much of Zuaranda after that one conversation. The teen took out his small box that held all of his deck of cards, he took out a Carvance card that was a large lion type beast with three tails, each had an element on the end, one was a blaze with fire, another seemed to be made of water while the last had electricity.


    ¡°Says it¡¯s a high ranking card capable of more abilities then the average single card¡±


    CHAPTER 2 : The First Card Tournament


    About ten years later, Gavin had received an invite to a card tournament at a large dome - like area. He was in his 30''s now but still had his youthful personality. His wife Marcia was hesitant to go with him but finally gave in to make sure he¡¯d be ok.


    ¡°Are you sure this¡¯ll be safe?¡± she questioned. He placed his hands on her shoulders then kissed her forehead letting her know everything would be alright. Gavin entered the large dome building where a high desk stood with a women sitting there.


    ¡°Welcome, please fill this entry application so we may know who''s arrived and entering this tournament¡± The contestant nodded Writing down his info then entering a large metal door that led to a large arena. Gavin had put his name down as his author name ¡°Sinto¡± so he could also use it as a player name as well. The dark haired man could see multiple other people standing around which he expected to be contestants too.


    Two hours later¡­


    After waiting for so long all the entries were finally submitted, the host was a boy in his early 20¡¯s that had dark red hair and purple eyes.


    ¡°I¡¯m glad so many of you have come to participate in the first tournament, it took some time to create this official tournament especially since these cards were scarce up until a few years ago¡­now let us begin this epic challenge, the winner shall get this!¡± The boy revealed a card that glowed a light gold all around itself. ¡°A rare card that contains one of the five divinity cards, in case any of you aren¡¯t aware cards have been categorized into five sections:


    1.Natural


    2.Chaos


    3.Rebirth


    4.Divinity


    5.Beast


    Obviously like most card games they use it to keep it more organized or keep track of what type you¡¯re looking for. Now for the first round¡­Gavin vs Terra¡± Gavin stood ready pulling out a random card from his deck, his opponent pulled the first card out from the top of her stack before summoning the creature within it.


    ¡°Go Simkai!¡± a tall knight-looking being appeared, it was in black armor with a height of seven feet. The boy felt a little un easy by the strong looking appearance of his foe but shook it off as he summoned his ally as well.


    ¡°Get ready, for my Incarta!¡± a tall creature in dark red and blue armor emerged with glowing red eyes, showing sharp nails about five inches long.


    ¡°Begin!¡± The announcer shouted, the knight pulled out a large sword aiming it towards it''s opponent. Simkai swung it''s blade straight for the armored foe when it suddenly caught the tip of the blade with it¡¯s left hand.Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.


    ¡°Go Incarta, show them your skills!¡± the armored being kicked the sword out of Simkai''s hand sending it spiraling up into the air. Gavin''s warrior put their fingers together like a dagger then proceeded forward to stab the combatant. The knight managed to stop it with both it''s hands but couldn¡¯t manage to do anything more, only keep the sharp nails away from their chest. Just then the sword was coming down fast about to hit one of them¡­Gavin''s ally managed to brake the file¡¯s position plus catch their sword. Before the knight could defend itself Incarta stabbed them straight through their body. Simkai began cracking apart like glass as a dark fog seem to leave their body as well. Terra''s creature crumbled to pieces right before everyone while Gavin''s went back into their card.


    ¡°Round one goes to Gavin!¡± the announcer responded from the boy''s obvious victory. ¡°Next: Michael vs Brandon!¡± Gavin walked past one of the upcoming contestants and noticed who they were¡­


    ¡°My wife''s brother entered this tournament?¡± He sat in the rows of seats waiting for the battle to start soon.


    ¡°Round two¡­begin!¡± Michael opened a binder filled with cards ordered by the strongest to weakest of the category.


    ¡°Let¡¯s see¡­how about Denkota¡± the short haired boy pulled out his selected card and aimed it at Brandon, ¡°Come forth Denkota!¡± a lion ¨C like beast appeared with blood red skin and purple eyes, it''s tail was made up of ten thin but long tail -like parts. It let out a roar that seem to shake the entire dome.


    ¡°Wow, that¡¯s some roar¡± Gavin commented. Brandon sighed as he slowly took out a card from his jean pocket.


    ¡°Your creature is no match for mine!¡± the card glistened with an orange aura as a large Golem emerged with lava inside it''s hard shell skin. ¡°Attack my Golem!¡± the large creature formed a ball of hardened magma, throwing it full force at their combatant. Michael¡¯s beast waited as the attack went spiraling forward. Using it''s tail, Denkota caught the ball before sending it back faster. Brandon watched as his Golem¡¯s attack came flying back, impacting the monster''s face. It fell backwards hitting the ground.


    ¡°Attack Denkota!¡± Michael announced, the creature opened it''s mouth firing a large sphere of purple energy. People watched in amazement as the attack hit the creature''s chest, half the golem¡¯s shell body was blown off by the incredible force of their file¡¯s attack.


    ¡°Damn it, can¡¯t end like this¡­Golem, use your last resort¡± His ally stood up once more with magma oozing from the side of itself. It ascended with a massive jump before shifting itself into a ball like position.


    ¡°He''s planning to impact like a meteor and take my beast out¡­Denkota vaporize him before the Golem can make contact!¡± His beast roared in reply before building up power. The red beast only had seconds until his foe landed, finally Denkota released an incredible blast that was far stronger then it''s first attack. His opponent was completely obliterated in a wave of purple light. When it cleared the golem was completely gone with nothing left. Brandon waited for his creature to return to him but never did¡­


    ¡°I don¡¯t understand, why hasn¡¯t Golem returned to my card?!¡± His opponent Michael laughed with his hand over his mouth.


    ¡°Think logically, our creatures are made out of energy¡­but how can they return if no essence of their energy remains?¡± Brandon fell to his knees.


    ¡°No¡­this can¡¯t happen¡­I won¡¯t let it!¡± Brandon pulled out another card but was stopped by the owner of the Tournament.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry but I¡¯m gonna need you to leave sir¡± Brandon gave Michael an angered glare before leaving the dome arena¡­


    Next round was Ah vs Gavin¡­He stood ready brushing the dark hair out of his eyes looking straight at his new target.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± Gavin taunted waving a card he had randomly chosen from his deck. His opponent also held a card in between his two fingers. Both revealed their card''s face as both creatures came forth at their side. Gavin had summoned a silver armored fighter with a katana for a weapon, while Ah had summoned a male vampire with long silver hair, red eyes and pale skin.


    ¡°Your foe stands before you¡± Gavin commanded. His warrior gripped the handle of the katana then bolted towards his target, Ah watched as his ally was slit across the torso, his blood seeping from a clear wound. The user was shocked when suddenly the cut began healing itself.


    ¡°Wow he healed himself in mere seconds!¡¯ the announcer commented by the surprise. Once healed the vampire made a fist with a dark aura swarming around it before striking his combatant in the chest. Gavin quickly moved out of the way as his teammate impacted the edge of the ring.


    ¡°This is getting interesting¡± Michael commented from the audience pulling his hoodie off. The warrior gripped his sword tightly before again making it¡¯s way in the opponent¡¯s direction. It slashed him as hard and fast as it could before sliding the katana back to the holder. Wounds appeared all over the foe¡¯s body with immense blood running down his body. Shockingly AH''s creature still managed to heal itself completely even after nearly 20 slashes across his body. Gavin fell to his knees not sure what to do now, his warrior did his best but had barley any effect.


    ¡°Time to finish this¡± AH snapped his fingers, at first the vampire did nothing when suddenly he moved at new levels of speed when the vampire bit down on the armored warrior¡¯s neck area. The enemy managed to bite through their armor with his powerful fangs. Purple energy glowed around AH¡¯s vampire before he pushed the foe aside, letting him hit the arena floor. Suddenly a katana formed on the side of his waist Similar to the warrior he was fighting. The audience watched in surprise as the vampire slowly took out his new weapon. His foe was starting to rise to his feet when a surge of force swept through the arena, the audience could barley feel the force from the attack. Gavin watched as his warrior hit the ground, laying motionless on it''s stomach. He let out a sigh of disappointment before pulling his creature back into his card.


    ¡°Good match¡± AH commented walking over to his opponent. Gavin looked away with an annoyed look on his face. ¡°Don¡¯t be like that, I¡¯m not being sarcastic¡­I actually admired your choice of creature, maybe we can go all out some time instead of just one card¡± His friend nodded shaking his hand before both contestants left the arena for the next battle.


    ¡°Alright we''ll have a short break before the next match!¡± The others sighed in relief that they could prepare a little longer.


    ¡°Damn, can¡¯t believe I lost so easily¡± Gavin said to himself as he leaned back in one of the soft cushioned chairs that were all over the audience seating area. He sat looking through his cards, he manly had Chaos cards that had to do with fighters/creatures who could use destructive moves and hold their own again an enemy. He only owned one rebirth card but didn¡¯t think about using it and revealing his both strongest plus favorite card of his stack. But with him defeated there was no point in worrying about that now¡­


    1 hour later¡­


    Finally the break was over, they were ready for the next battle: Michael vs Chris. Chris was tall with short blonde hair and dark blue eyes. The teen stood prepared on one side of the arena. The blonde combatant pulled out a card that seemed to shine from the arena¡¯s lights.


    ¡°Behold my trump card!¡± Chris aimed his card, causing a zombie looking creature to appear with a bloody katana.


    Michael summoned a tall creature with thick silver armor. It looked like a buff knight with red eyes.


    ¡°Let''s begin¡± Michael commented as his creature pulled out a long silver sword. It slowly walked towards his foe with flames igniting with each step. Chris'' zombie spat out a dark purple mist surrounding their target¡¯s face. Suddenly Michael¡¯s warrior pierced the undead¡¯s torso with black gore flying everywhere. Just then he pulled it out as if fighting an invisible force or possessed. The warrior''s eyes turned purple moments before stabbing himself through their torso as well.


    ¡°Are you kidding me!?¡± Michael complained. His being bled out and collapsed with it¡¯s eyes going out. Gavin along with a few others applauded Chris as his zombie returned to it''s card. Michael grinded his teeth in anger as the opponent pulled out another card, a white ninja emerged from his card attempting to kill Chris. Suddenly as the ninja went for a kill with hidden blades in both hands a pale skinned man with only shorts on and purple eyes materialized between them, catching both bladed with ease. Michael¡¯s eyes widened as the unknown man head-butted his target, causing him to shatter to pieces. Michael began stepping back out of fear but was stopped by a duplicate of him blocking his way. It lifted the participant off his feet with purple flames swarming around his hand.


    ¡°You''re disqualified¡± he shoved his fist into Michael¡¯s mouth sending flames through his body before bursting into ash. The crowd went silent with surprised expressions on their faces¡­


    ¡°Time for the final match : CHRIS V.S AH¡± Chris once more brought out his zombie ready for yet another match. AH however pulled out a Similar card that reflected the light as well.


    ¡°Prepare for my. Corson Naberious!¡± A massive demon emerged with chains hanging from it''s claws. His foe hesitated but signaled his creature to attack. Again his zombie spat at his target in an attempt to posses him. But just as it was about to make contact the large creature became transparent, causing the liquid to land on the ground. It grinned showing it''s sharp teeth then slashed it''s claws across AH¡¯s creature causing more dark blood to come out of the zombie''s chest.


    ¡°Come on zomboa, you can do better than that¡± his user called out. His creature swung it''s katana over and over but couldn¡¯t seem to get a hit on the large demon. Suddenly Chris¡¯ creature picked up the zombie with one hand and ate it. Few people in the audience throw up in their mouth while others called B.S on the creature¡¯s action.


    ¡°What the hell was that!?¡± AH complained. Chris laughed looking back to his opponent.


    ¡°My demon has a special ability that isn¡¯t banned in the rules, the ability is: whatever creature it devours, it gains their abilities¡­the only downside is my demon is only able to use that creature¡¯s abilities a few times before it fades. I haven¡¯t figured out how to extend the usage of their abilities yet¡­but I¡¯m sure I¡¯ll figure it out eventually¡±


    AH sighed in annoyance but put his hand out looking away from his target. They shook hands before the loser left the arena proceeding to the audience.


    ¡°Looks like we have our champion!¡± the host announced. Flowers were thrown from the rows of people while the host came up to him.


    ¡°Congratulations, here''s your prize!¡± The man handed Chris a card that read : ¡°200 GP¡±


    ¡°With this card you¡¯ll be able to purchase cards from our machines that look kind of like an ATM¡± Chris thanked him and walked out to his car, Gavin caught up with him just before he left.


    ¡°That was a great tournament, I hope you and me can have another match Some time so I can see more of the type of cards you collect or at least have.


    After a month a large creature appeared over the city, it was bigger then Chris'' demon card, it had dark skin with a blue light barley shinning out of part of his body. It resembled a black cloud with blue light around it.


    ¡°W-what''s that?¡± Marcia and Gavin asked starring at the large monster¡±


    ¡°It''s the being from the Legion card, a powerful creature capable of destroying an entire city in one attack¡±


    ¡°Well what should we do?¡± Gavin replied still not taking his eyes off the massive being. Chris thought for a moment before replying: Two of us should detract it while we have another look for the card user¡±


    ¡°But who''s that third? Marcia doesn¡¯t use Pro-Gonda cards¡± Marcia made a fake cough getting her fianc¨¦¡¯s attention. They turned to see her holding three cards in her hand.


    ¡°I azure you, I can use these cards with barley any trouble¡± Chris smiled at her confidence.


    ¡°I guess we¡¯re set then, let¡¯s go¡± While Chris and Gavin made their way over to Legion¡¯s position. Marcia began searching around the area for any signs of the user. Marcia looked over the city for anything suspicious¡­


    ¡°Hmph no sign of anyone abnormal¡­better try my Norbus Amber¡± She pulled out one of her three cards, a scaled unicorn appeared in front of her, it had dark blue scales with a purple horn and dark red hair on the back of it''s neck.


    ¡°Norbus search for anything out of the ordinary!¡± Her creature bowed it''s head slowly when a light blue wave of light shot out of the horn. The shockwave of light scoured throughout the city when suddenly a golden ray of light shot upward into the atmosphere.


    ¡°I have found the source of Legion master¡± her creature announced. Marcia mounted her creature as Norbus ascended into the air, soaring across the sky landing on the roof of a building near the found source.


    Meanwhile¡­


    Gavin along with Chris reached the coming threat while pulling out a single card from their decks. Their large target looked down on them with massive eyes.


    ¡°What do you want fools?¡± Legion asked not taking his eyes off them.


    ¡°Now!¡± one of them called out as they showed their card¡¯s face towards the opponent. Chris¡¯ creature was a purple being with gold wristbands along with a gold outline around his face. A purple aura swarmed around him. Gavin''s was a red skeleton in a dark cloak.


    ¡°Vogan Dusk attack!¡± The dark haired user commanded, his red skeleton spun his scythe then released a bolt of lightning at his foe, it struck him head on but didn¡¯t seem to have any effect. Just then Legion shapeshifted into a giant black creature made out of a type of steel. He clinched his fist throwing it straight for both creatures. Chris'' being transported himself and the users a mile away while Vogan managed to slow the massive fist down with his scythe. The red being let go of his blade slowly using his energy to keep the blade in place so Legion couldn¡¯t move his fist any closer. The colossal fighter pulled his arm back and threw another blow toward Vogan, the weapon was knocked away spiraling backwards until hitting the ground sticking into the soil. As yet another blow rushed in Dusk''s direction, His ally emerged from a flash of light stopping the fist with his palm.


    ¡°Time to start the real fight!¡± He announced before pushing the creature back, it was forced a few feet back but managed to keep a stable balance.


    ¡°What rank is your card?¡± He asked his ally.


    ¡°He¡¯s Rift Keogon, a four star Divinity creature, it¡¯s a god-like card that¡¯s one of five ultra-rare cards, the other four cards are unknown to normal or even long time experts like us. I assure you that these cards are either hidden or the users are keeping them hidden in their deck or possibly not even putting them in their deck¡± They turned back to the fight and saw Legion throwing faster blows aimed for Rift Keogon. Surprisingly the warrior stopped each blow with one wrist as if he were fighting a normal opponent.


    ¡°I¡¯ve had it with you trash, prepare for me to go all out!¡± The giant monster changed into a smaller man size version of himself, along with a gold Light covering his body. Legion moved much faster than before, unleashing an onslaught of punches. Keogon dogged each one but could feel intense heat radiating off him. Once an opening appeared, the fighter struck their foe in the face head on. Legion staggered backwards while Rift began to feel a burning feeling in his fist, he looked down to see a similar light around his palm.


    ¡°What is this!?¡± He questioned¡­


    Meanwhile Marcia had confronted the man responsible for unleashing Legion, his name was Acuris Nakomore. He had dark green hair with gray irises that was just dark enough not to blind in with his eyeball.


    ¡°So¡­you found me¡­but what is it you intend on doing?¡± kill me? capture me? or maybe slap me around a little before letting me go with a warning. Heh, so¡­which is it?¡± a grin grew over his face as he stood with his arms crossed.


    ¡° Rasi Sanada, unleash your attack!¡± Her creature bowed and fired a thin but fast beam directed at the assailant. Acuris moved his head to the side with the attack just barley missing by an inch.


    ¡°Heh I must say this creature is fascinating, if I had moved even a second slower, you may have hit the side of my face¡± The villain pulled out a card from his jacket¡¯s chest pocket and quickly turned it to show his foe. A white haired man with a red thin scarf around his neck emerged, he didn¡¯t appear to have a shirt, but a gem was in the center of his head. Along with no irises.


    ¡°Go on Teganda, show her the power of my deck¡± Marcia watched as the man fired lasers from his eyes, the girl''s unicorn attempted to absorb it into it''s horn but was turned to stone once the attack made contact.


    ¡°Damn¡± she pulled her next card with two still remaining in her current deck. ¡°Go Saramis!¡± A white female demon emerged with large black wings and red eyes faced her foe.


    ¡°Attack!¡± Marcia commanded, her creature let out aloud sonic scream sending the villain staggering back off his feet into a stop sign. His ears were ringing with a little blood running down the sides. ¡°S-shit, surprised I didn¡¯t go deaf¡± The assailant slowly got to his feet still disoriented and commanded Teganda to release another attack. His warrior took in a deep breath then breathed out a wave of silver flames in his target''s direction, Marcia froze in place when her ally moved in front of the approaching flames taking it in by inhaling it like a vacuum. She didn¡¯t stop until all the flames were gone. Saramis grinned then aimed her hand toward her enemies, shadowy creatures in the form of girls grabbed the card user and his creature by their arms and throat, about three dark girls had a grip on both opponents. Marcia watched as her creature¡¯s eyes glowed¡­Saramis aimed two fingers straight out in front of her like a gun and released a purple beam, it began to become transparent as it looked like two faint beams. One beam was directed at the creature while the other aimed at its user¡­


    The villain closed his eyes waited for the beam to pierce through his body¡­but nothing happened, he opened his eyes to see his warrior get struck with the attack, silver blood gushing from their torso before evaporating like smoke.


    ¡°Are you finished!?¡± Marcia yelled pointing at him with a confident smile on her face. He felt the shadow girls let go of him, letting him fall to his knees. He looked up at her then back at his Legion. ¡°Legion come!¡± he shouted. The woman''s eyes widened realizing that the enemy was calling his best fighter over. The golden evolved being took off toward his user with the others right behind him. Vogan shot a fire ball from his bony hand but missed just an inch from the enemy¡¯s incredible reaction and speed. Keogon was nearly in reaching distance, the being attempted to grab Legion¡¯s hand but just barley missed as his target darted down for his user landed next to him. The others reached Marcia with their creatures at their sides as well.


    ¡°Enough of this¡­Marcia, Chris, lets unleash everything our allies got!¡± They nodded as all three Pro Gonders commanded their creatures to fire their strongest attack. Vogan made a blast of fire that covered the street, Keokogan formed a sphere of gold light in one hand raised up in the air, lastly Saramis unleashed a much stronger sonic scream, Chris'' ally watched as the two were engulfed in flames then the scream blowing the flames away reveling the user covered in burns while his partner had blocked it not taking much damage. Keogoan threw his sphere of light directed at the card user, he knew Legion would react by protecting his user which is what he did.


    The being of light put his hands out slowing the sphere of light down but just barley, the others watched as their foe struggled with it.


    ¡°Now Me I¡± His user shouted. Chris'' ally closed his palm into a fist and the large ball of light erupted in an explosion. Legion was utterly destroyed in the immense burst of power. Once everything was quiet they looked at their attacker who seemed to be having trouble staying conscious. Marcia walked up to him. ¡°You''ve lost¡± he said nothing before hitting the pavement succumbing to his wounds.


    ¡°Finally he¡¯s gone¡± Chris commented¡­


    CHAPTER 3 The Card War


    It was 2029, Gavin''s 30th birthday was coming up when suddenly his phone began ringing. He answered quickly feeling as though something was off.


    ¡°Gavin we have a problem, hurry and get over to Slyborn!¡± His friend quickly hung up. Slyborn was a base like area that he and his friends hung out and practiced their cards to test their limits or strategies. The dark haired man rushed in seeing Chris and the others including AH sitting at a large round table waiting for him.


    ¡°Gavin we have a major problem¡­seems a group of card users like that unknown man¡± Their ally sighed placing his hand on the table.


    ¡°So what is our strategy?¡± They sighed. ¡°That¡¯s what we¡¯re trying to figure out¡­its not that easy to locate them, at first cards gave off a energy source where we could track it¡­but some how the cards hold in their Ki to where we can¡¯t use our cards or creatures to locate them¡± Just then Chris brought in a high tech radio and set it down in the middle of the table.


    ¡°Here''s a radio we can use like a police scanner to hear any alerts of attacks throughout the city¡­


    An hour or two went by when an alert came up telling them they had a large steel creature destroying the south part of town.


    ¡°Let''s head out¡± AH said standing up pushing in his chair.


    ¡°wait we should have two people stay here in case something happens¡± Gavin suggested. In the end Chris and him stayed at the base as support while Marcia and AH left to check out what was happening down town¡­They reached the area and got out of the car to see a large dragon made out of steel breathing waves of blue fire all over the city. A few people were still running away in panic while the two card users pulled out a card each and aimed it toward the monster. AH summoned the zombie that Chris had used in the tournament, it stood in front of the massive creature with it''s bloody katana. The dragon opened it''s mouth and released another wave of fire directed at the undead being. AH and Marcia watched as the zombie was ablaze with flames but didn¡¯t seem to have any effect as the flames slowly faded away.


    ¡°Attack¡± AH shouted to his creature, the zombie ascended up and drove his katana deep into the creature¡¯s neck. It let out a loud roar that shook the city. The users nearly lost their balance. Purple blood dripped from the creature¡¯s wound. Just then a girl appeared on top of a building just a few feet away from the dragon.


    ¡°How dare you injure my monster!...I Crystal will make sure you and this city is burned to the ground¡± AH had his zombie continue the onslaught against the attacking monster. Meanwhile Marcia summoned A fairy like creature that was human size and took her up to the roof of the building where the girl was. ¡°Where are your partners!?¡± Marcia questioned.


    ¡°What are you talking about?¡± Crystal smiled. The girl frowned ordering her fairy to attack, suddenly the girl was covered in green light, she tried to move but realize she was paralyzed. ¡°Damn¡­I can¡¯t move!¡± She forced her head in her ally''s Direction and commanded the dragon to attack. The large beast was bleeding severely but began shooting fire in every direction. The fairy simply made a barrier of light protecting her from the fire. AH slowly backed up to get some distance away from the attacking creature when suddenly a large wave of fire headed in his direction, just before he wasn¡¯t going up in flames his zombie landed in front of him and moved his Katana in a fast motion creating a purple ray of light the purple light seem to cause the fire to disappear.


    ¡°That was close¡± the user responded lowering his hand from his face. Crystal continued struggling to regain control over her body. ¡°Finish this!¡± AH shouted pointing at the already injured beast. His zombie let out a loud screech before jumping at the dragon. It breathed out yet another blaze of flames but just barley missed as the undead warrior stabbed his sword deep into his enemy''s chest as it slowly went down slitting the creature¡¯s body. The beast roared out in in pain as it began to bleed out more until finally evaporated.


    ¡°Finally¡± Marcia commented. She turned to see her foe slowly begin to force her hand towards one of her pockets, AH stayed out in the street in case something happened on the room, the user saw Crystal attempting to pull out her deck of cards, but Marcia commanded her fairy to attack. The ally shot multiple beams from her fingers piercing through the villain¡¯s body. Blood dripped from her body as she hit the pavement of the roof they were on, she wasn¡¯t paralyzed anymore but her body was badly wounded.


    ¡°Now tell us who and where your allies are!¡± She shouted. Her assailant looked up at her as a pool of her own blood began to form underneath her.


    ¡°N-never, I¡¯d die before betraying my friends!¡± The girl looked at her creature and the fairy nodded aiming her finger at their target''s head shooting a beam straight through the center of her head. Marcia looked away and jumped down to the street.


    ¡°Who knows how many of them there are, but she did give away that there are others¡±


    After hours of researching occurrences online and listening to the radio, they finally knew where they were, by what they knew, there were four, three guys and one girl, they caused destruction and stole cards from any one they found after defeating them and wiping out the entire area.


    ¡°Let''s go and end their sick game¡±¡­


    (TO BE CONTINUED¡­)

 Chapter 2

    Pro-gonda


    The three teens went in search of the four villains that had been causing trouble¡­


    CHAPTER 1 : Target Found


    After about a day of searching they found two of the men that had been causing trouble in the city of New York. Gavin held a card between two of his fingers. (Alright, let¡¯s go) he thought.


    ¡°Who are you!?¡± One of them shouted as they turned their attention toward the three teens. ¡°Leave now if you wanna remain in one piece¡± The tall buff man threatened. Gavin laughed waving his card at them hiding it''s creature.


    ¡°Bring it on¡± AH announced pulling out a card as well. The two men sighed pulling out a deck bigger than a normal sized pile of cards needed to fight.


    ¡°This might take awhile AH complained. Marcia remained quiet. Gavin found this strange but tried to keep his focus on the two criminals. Both Gavin and AH revealed their cards. ¡°Go Sonaque!¡± Gavin announced as a deity-looking being appeared. Next was AH¡¯s, ¡°Go Hellziathen!¡± A dark demon-like man rose from the card floating toward the two men. Gavin¡¯s creature was a man-like being floating with multiple swords orbiting around him. He also had long dark hair, golden armor and purple eyes.


    His partner¡¯s wore a dark red cloak with black wings and red eyes. The two watched as two giant cyclops¡¯ emerged from the enemies¡¯ cards. Gavin sighed ¡°They stole all those cards and this is what they choose?¡±


    ¡°They could just be toying with us, waiting to use their good cards when either they get bored or lose the upper hand¡± Just then the two men yelled : Cyclops attack!¡± Their giants stepped forward throwing their fists in Soaque¡¯s and Hellziathan¡¯s direction. Gavin backed up getting some distance while AH stayed close to his creature. The giants punched them with all their strength but it had no effect.


    ¡°Seems you don¡¯t know these creatures very well do you?¡± AH commented. Soaque¡¯s body became a little more buff as if he had gotten much stronger. ¡°Now attack!¡± Both teens commanded, the creatures began their attack, The golden warrior formed a barrier of purple energy around one of his floating swords before launching it toward the left cyclops. The monster tried grabbing it but missed as the blade pierced the giant¡¯s only eye going straight through it¡¯s head. It let out a deep bellow before hitting the ground shaking the city.


    ¡°One down¡± Gavin commented. Next Hellziathan unleashed a beam of dark energy, the giant put his wrist up to block it but instead of it being just a hit or miss attack, the beam trapped him in a field of dark energy electrocuting him. The giant tried to fight it but was utterly defeated like the other.


    ¡°Hopefully your next creatures will be better¡± AH taunted.


    ¡°We¡¯ll show you brats!¡± Once more the two pulled out their cards, summoning two creatures, one being a blue deity-looking man wearing gold Egyptian clothing, it also had four hands. ¡°Behold Consai the berserker!¡± Gavin¡¯s eyes was in surprise by this new creature. (This may be a challenge. Next came a large three headed dragon that looked as if it were made out of steel.


    Once again the men called for their creatures to attack, not noticing that Marcia had vanished. The dragon engulfed the two beings in a wave of black flames. But again they were unharmed.


    ¡°Why-why aren¡¯t they defeated!?¡± One of them complained. His ally turned to Consai and commanded : ¡°Consai, why aren¡¯t they receiving damage?¡± His deity focused on the two, feeling their energy¡­


    ¡°They have a protective barrier around them, it¡¯s an ability that Hellziathan is emitting. However, it can¡¯t take much damage. Also Soaque has an effect: Each time their attacked, their offensive and defensive power increase depending on the amount of the attack their faced with¡± Finally the berserker aimed his palm toward them shooting a lightning blast ahead on. Hellziathan¡¯s barrier suddenly shattered leaving them open. Again Consai went for an attack but Soaque protected his ally with both hands on either side of him. The deity snapped his fingers as a large fist came down from the clouds and hit him head on, the city shook from the shock wave. Just than a grin appeared on Gavin¡¯s face.


    ¡°What are you laughing at!?¡± They shouted. The dark-haired teen pulled out another card summoning Marcia¡¯s unicorn. The horned creature pointed it¡¯s horn at Soaque, healing a great deal of his injuries from the god¡¯s attack.


    ¡°Oh shit!¡± They cried out. The armored warrior smirked as his skin seem to change into a purple steel-like material. He slowly approached the two enemies emotionless and silent.


    ¡°Kill him!¡± Both assailants shouted. AH watched as the god¡¯s lightning and the dragon¡¯s fire hit Gavin¡¯s creature head on¡­But they walked out of the smoke cloud undamaged. The two froze in fear, along with the dragon. The god just watched expressionless. Evolved Soaque punched straight through the dragon then pulled his fist out. The large creature burst into a pile of sparkles before returning to it¡¯s card.


    Following that he snapped his fingers, having all of his swords pierce through the deity repeatedly until he do vanish into small orbs of light.


    ¡°I would love to play fair until you run out of cards¡­ however you two have way too many. Soaque final attack!¡± The purple armored being clapped his hands together, trapping the two me in a energy field before causing it to erupt in a fierce explosion. ¡°There, those two are finally gone¡± As their creatures returned to their cards, they heard Marcia let out an echoing scream.


    ¡°Shit what¡¯s going on!?¡± Gavin said making their way to Marcia a few streets away. They found her with only one card in her hand, the others must¡¯ve been defeated. (We have to help her!) The teen thought looking through their cards¡­¡±There!¡± He quickly pulled out his chosen card and faced the pair, the man and women that were part of the group of four. A muscular, dark armored being stood facing the pair¡¯s monsters.


    ¡°Oh look Zorbae, they have an armored ant¡± The women commented. Marcia sighed, reveling her last card. A large dark red Cerberus emerged growling at the two and their creatures. The heroes were faced against, a golden mythology-looking man sitting on a throne. Along with a mage dressed in rainbow colors. Both teens found this strange, but couldn¡¯t afford to underestimate their opponents just on their appearance.


    Zorbae commanded his golden god to attack them any way it could, as long as it got results. Gavin had his dark knight form a purple field of energy around itself just as the attack made contact. His knight had barley taken any damage while on the other hand, Marcia¡¯s Cerberus had sustained a great deal of damage from just the one attack. Before the mage could be ordered to attack, Gavin pointed at him for his knight to attack. The armored being gripped his sword before holding it straight up with both hands. A beam of purple energy came down outlining his body, filling him with power.


    The girl snapped out of just watching, ¡°Mage stop and end him!¡± it nodded firing a pink blast of light head on. The blast made contact but instead was absorbed by the outline of light.


    ¡°Knight attack!¡± Gavin shouted. His creature lowered the sword going for the mage. The magical being put both hands out firing a beam of lightning at the coming threat but too was ineffective. Her eyes widened as her mage was pierced over and over until the knight slowly slid the sword back to his side. Her creature evaporated to nothing going back to it¡¯s card. She sighed in anger looking to her partner hoping he¡¯d be able to handle it.


    ¡°Your move¡± Gavin grinned seeing his ally powered up with energy swarming around him. The man brushed his silver hair out of his eyes and grinned as well. He ordered his ally to use it''s special technique. At that moment, the being rose from his throne approaching them.


    ¡°Dark Knight defend!¡± His ally clapped his armored hands together causing a wide beam of light to come down to protect him. Just then the foe slowly forced his way through the barrier and put it¡¯s hand on the center of the knight''s face. The light vanished as his ally stood still as if frozen in time. ¡°W-what''s going on!?¡± he said in shock, his friend AH was also confused on what was occurring.


    ¡°I have trapped your creature in an illusion, and as long as I remain in battle, he shall stay trapped in that state unless he takes enough damage to be sent back to his card¡± Gavin looked at him in annoyance, ¡°great¡­now that he¡¯s stuck in an illusion and unable to move¡­I¡¯ll have to pull out yet another card¡± But just as he was about to activate his card, AH stepped in. ¡°You already have a good card on the battlefield, just stay back until we can save him. Otherwise you¡¯re just wasting time and energy¡±


    AH held a card in between his middle and index finger before tossing it onto the battlefield. A tall buff gray skinned being emerged with horns on his head like a demon.


    ¡°Alacar attack!¡± he commanded pointing at the tall armored creature. His ally snapped his fingers ceiling the target within a large pink bubble-like sphere. The large armored creature twitched but could barley move. AH smirked before commanding his Alacar to unleash an all-out blow.


    His creature threw a punch in the direction of it¡¯s target, a vast wave of force went straight through the pink sphere as it shattered to pieces. The golden god was pushed back by his foe¡¯s immense strength. However, Golden God hadn¡¯t taken much damage from it¡¯s great defense.


    ¡°Ugh, feel like this may take awhile¡± AH complained carefully watching his targets. Suddenly their foe threw their palm toward Alacar, a wall of gold light moved in the direction of the demon-like creature.  AH¡¯s ally also aimed their palm back at the coming threat as a wall of swords manifested behind him.


    ¡°Wall of a thousand blades!¡± The being yelled as all the swords went flying forward like bullets. Though, each sword that hit the wall of light was obliterated instantly. Gavin looked over at the enemy pair that watched with smirks on their faces then back to his dark knight that remained motionless. He looked through his deck thinking he should summon another creature but remained still letting AH handle it. Meanwhile Marcia felt powerless do anything, her cards wouldn¡¯t be able to summon their creatures for awhile, so all she could do was watch the battle unfold.


    ¡°If you don¡¯t weaken him soon, I¡¯m going to pull out my trump card!¡± Gavin called out to his ally.


    ¡°If it¡¯s your trump card, why didn¡¯t you summon it in the first place!?¡± The guy complained. His dark-haired friend looked at him replying: ¡°Because it¡¯s an enemy card that¡¯s incredibly powerful¡­not entirely sure if I could command it. So I kept it in my deck until a loss seemed imminent¡±


    ¡°W-what card is in your deck?¡± AH questioned a little uneasy. Even Marcia looked scared. But their friend just looked at them silent.


    ¡°Enough talk! Golden God¡­end this worthless fight with your finishing move!¡± All three of them looked at the deity, their eyes wide as it threw both hands out in opposite directions. The bright blue sky became a dark purple with clouds swirling around like a tornado.


    ¡°Endless piercing!¡± The deity suddenly clapped his hands together as all the clouds became a blood red color then went straight for Alacar, AH¡¯s creature. The demon-like being fired lasers out of each of his fingers from his left hand all aligned together. As each laser went through the blast of red, it only caused the red projectile to scatter into more projectiles. AH watched as his creature was struck by dozens of red bullet-like attacks.


    Finally, the poor creature was defeated, returning to it¡¯s card. But before AH could put his card away, one last attack from the Golden God impacted the card, completely destroying it. AH started at it motionless. Meanwhile Gavin pulled out his trump card revealing it to the two targets. ¡°I summon¡­Legion!¡± Hearing the name, both allies turned to witness the giant creature manifest between both teams. The others were shocked to see Gavin had summoned a creature they had long defeated.


    ¡°Legion¡­destroy the Golden God!¡± The gigantic monster made a fist, throwing it straight for it¡¯s target. The foe sealed himself within a gold barrier. However, it shattered from the monster¡¯s immense power.


    ¡°Impossible! The golden barrier should be unbreakable!¡± The assailant cried out, staring at his open ally.


    ¡°Legion, crush that so called god!¡± His user called out. The high-level creature threw his fist once more toward the target, in a wide shock wave, the deity was struck head-on impact. Everyone watched in surprise as the deity reverted back to it¡¯s card. Both of the assailants stood there silent¡­


    ¡°Give me that card¡± Gavin commanded walking towards them. Zorbae gripped the card attempting to tear it in half. ¡°Stay back or I¡¯ll rip it to shreds!¡± Gavin laughed crossing his arms then replied: ¡°Go ahead, if you destroy that card¡­I¡¯ll just kill you on the spot¡± AH and Marcia were shocked to see their friend acting like that. He had no problem finishing off an opponent, but threating them in such a way didn¡¯t seem like the Gavin they knew.


    ¡°Y-you¡¯re bluffing!¡± The man shouted calling him on his bluff. But Zorbae could see the fear in his partner¡¯s eyes, she knew he wasn¡¯t bluffing. Gavin pointed toward the two, warning them that they had five seconds to give him the card before Legion crushed them. Finally he tossed the Golden God card to his victor. ¡°There you have the card!¡± Gavin smirked placing it in his deck then into his pocket.


    Just then Legion struck the ground near the two, causing them to go flying out of sight. ¡°There¡­hopefully we don¡¯t have to deal with them anymore. He noticed his Dark Knight had returned to it¡¯s card as well¡­


    Months pasted when they located another one of the five god cards, they had spent so long searching for any clue of it¡¯s location when alerts popped up around a rainforest far on the other part of the U.S. After a day on a plane, they finally landed just outside the forest. Their cards weren¡¯t picking up any others, so they proceeded into the forest¡­


    Gavin kept Legion in his chest pocket incase he needed to summon him right away, he also kept Golden God in his other pocket away from his deck as well. About ten minutes into walking through the plant filled area, one of their cards began to detect something. Marcia¡¯s Cerberus card left her pocket, but she managed to grab onto it, holding it in place.


    ¡°Let it go¡± Gavin commented turning to her. She gave him a serious look then nodded letting go of her card. It flew through the air toward the nearby card with the three of them keeping up with it. Finally the team saw the Cerberus card land near a large hole.


    ¡°It¡¯s gotta be a trap¡­no way getting a god-level card is that easy¡± AH commented as all three looked at the dark abyss then back at the girl¡¯s card. Gavin told them that he had a plan that would possibly make things easier for them. The dark-haired card user pulled out a card tossing it onto the grassy floor.


    ¡°Come forth, Golden God!¡± At that moment, the deity manifested in front of them. ¡°Gold, I need you to travel down the abyss for either enemies or the god card that¡¯s nearby¡± The high-level being bowed in acceptance before levitating over to the hole. Before leaving he picked up the girl¡¯s card tossing it back to her. The being surrounded himself in light as he descended down¡­


    Moments after descending down, a shadow-like hand grabbed Gavin¡¯s leg, beginning to pull him into the pit. ¡°What!? What about the Golden God!?¡± He cried out as the Pro-Gonda player was sliding across the dirt towards the darkness. AH grabbed his friend by his hands trying to hold onto him. But he realized it was no use, for he too was being dragged forward.


    Marcia was too shocked by the arms coming from the pit that she could just sit there. Just then a beam of golden light made contact with the arms, causing the shadow creature to fade away. Both men got up, just a foot away from getting thrown into the abyss. Gavin looked up to see an unknown guy knelt down on one knee in an offensive-like position. He held a single card in his left hand in between his middle and index finger.


    ¡°Who are you¡­and what are you doing here?¡± Gavin questioned.


    ¡°My name is Kin Monari, I¡¯m a high level player of Pro-Gonda. Though I do wish they¡¯d call it something better. I sensed something was wrong and when my card picked up another, I knew my suspensions were correct. Luckily I pulled out ¡°Angel¡¯s light¡± destroying whatever was taking you two down there¡±


    ¡°Where are all these new cards coming from!? I originally made 50 or so¡­now someone, or others copied the same dark magic idea and are out there creating hundreds or even thousands of these cards!¡±


    ¡°So why are you guys here?...Trying to get that god card?¡± Kin questioned. AH nodded replying: ¡°We traced the card to this abyss and know it wouldn¡¯t be easy to get such a rare card. So we had Gavin¡¯s Golden God card go down to check the area for any enemies¡± Suddenly Monari¡¯s eyes widened as he responded: ¡°You shouldn¡¯t have done that! Call back your deity before it¡¯s too late!¡±


    As the deity¡¯s user was about to call them back, a burst of red light filled the hole. Everyone froze and watched as the Golden God came staggering out, landing in front of them. Luckily it seemed to still be alive enough to remaining in reality.


    ¡°What has the power to do that to such a high-level being!?¡± One of them asked. Just then something emerged from the abyss as well, it floated above them inside the blinding flash of red light.


    ¡°This is why I told you to call your card back, if another card or creature faces something they see as a threat, the card will activate, unleashing them. In other words-¡±


    ¡°We¡¯ve awakened the god card¡­¡±


    CHAPTER 2 Over-powered Threat


    All four of them starred at the god-level creature they had come to get. As the light cleared, they saw a being in dark armor with a large cape and sword. ¡°What do we do now!? I don¡¯t think we can win this battle¡± Gavin commented shaking at the sight of one of the most powerful cards.


    ¡°Even if it¡¯s pointless, we should try anyway!¡± AH responded pulling out Vogan, one of his strongest cards. The purple armored warrior emerged tightly gripping his scythe. Instead of summoning a creature, Kin pulled out a card aiming it toward Vogan and Gold.


    ¡°Barrier of purity!¡± The card shined on the two powerful beings as a blue barrier surrounded them. ¡°There, hopefully that protection card will help against the god card¡± The demon god gripped it¡¯s sword and made a slashing motion in front of them, a dark red wave rushed past them causing their barriers to shatter in one attack.Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings.


    ¡°Damn it! I know he¡¯s one of the strongest cards, but shattering our defense in one attack!? Is he even stronger than we thought?¡± Kin commented looking at his allies then back at their opponent. He took a breath looking through his deck. ¡°Don¡¯t worry guys, I have mostly defense cards, so I should have something capable of stopping our current threat¡±


    (Hmm, defense cards¡­I only thought to make warrior cards. Now someone¡¯s making effect cards as well. For once I¡¯m actually impressed with their idea instead of just copying my idea of dark magic creatures) Gavin thought to himself. The god creature began making a barrage of slashes that again created an energy wave aimed toward the two offensive warriors.


    ¡°Go Golden God!¡± It¡¯s user commanded. The gold deity struck the ground with the tip of it¡¯s Scythe. Suddenly a wall of gold transparent energy rose up from the crack in the ground, protecting the two beings.


    ¡°Wow, I can¡¯t believe that worked!¡± AH responded. Gavin nodded in agreement, he didn¡¯t think it would, but had to try something. Meanwhile Monari looked through each card of his 20 card deck, sure he had a lot of guards, but it wouldn¡¯t be easy defeating their kind of enemy. Finally he spotted a card, it was risky, but one he might have to take. Kin decided to slide it out from his deck and keep it in his pocket incase he needed to pull it out quickly. Gavin had his deity go for a head-on attack with his sword, but it proved pointless from the demon god¡¯s speed and might. Each blow Gold threw with his sword was deflected by his foe¡¯s own blade. The ground shook by the two¡¯s incredible power. Gavin looked through his deck for another alternative creature when he realized it was in his shirt pocket. Just as he attempted to pull it out, their assailant knocked Golden God out of the way, shooting a red blast of power.


    Vogan appeared between it and Gavin, deflecting it with his scythe. Their immense power sent Gavin backwards, the card falling out of his shirt pocket. ¡°No, the card¡± he commented to himself as he slowly got back up, making his way toward it. Meanwhile the demon god unleashed a shock wave from his body, sending everyone in random directions from him. The card was sent up into a tree, while Gavin and AH laid in the large crater formed by the catastrophic outburst.


    Vogan and his ally the Golden God still remained on the battlefield, but were badly wounded. Most common creatures would¡¯ve been destroyed by that level of power. Gavin regained consciousness to find Marcia laying off in the distance motionless.


    (S-she¡¯s ok¡­she must¡¯ve just been knocked unconscious) He limped over to her while their foe charged up power in his left hand. Lifting her up, he held her in his arms. She still was unresponsive. Gavin placed his head on her chest to check for a heartbeat¡­ Nothing¡­


    ¡°No¡­she can¡¯t be dead, she can¡¯t be!¡± He began to give her CPR as tears ran down his face, but still nothing. AH lifted his head up seeing the casualty. He took a deep breath calling out: ¡°She¡¯s gone, you need to save yourself!¡±


    ¡°No! I won¡¯t leave her here!¡± His friend yelled crying uncontrollably. He looked up at the card in the tree, he asked Kin to come protect her while he went for the card. Monari nodded patting his back before kneeling down to the deceased girl. Meanwhile the crying man wiped his tears, climbing up the large oak tree with thin branches, as if any of them could break at any moment. AH could only watch his creature and friends fight since his body was in excruciating pain, each movement felt as if all his bones had shattered.


    Kin had used a defense card to protect them for the time being until Gavin could get the card. The Pro-Gonder was almost there, just a few branches left. As his hand grabbed the card, the branches holding him up broke. He fell towards the ground. The player closed his eyes thinking it was the end, his body wouldn¡¯t be able to hand that hard of an impact. That¡¯s when he realized the wind on his face from falling had stopped. Opening his eyes, Gavin found himself levitating within a golden transparent orb his deity had created just in time.


    ¡°AH, have your creature fend off the god long enough for Kin¡¯s next move!¡± His friend nodded turning over, looking at the battle. ¡°Vogan, attack full power!¡± The buff purple warrior nodded racing forward. Demon God threw his dark hand forward firing a fierce blast of dark energy, but AH¡¯s fighter blocked it with it¡¯s scythe taking the force of the attack.


    Their foe watched with surprise that one creature was capable of absorbing so much force in one attack. That¡¯s when Vogan¡¯s scythe shattered apart. ¡°No, crap!¡± His user cried out hitting his fist on the soil still unable to stand. At that moment, Gavin tossed the card to Kin telling him to summon the creature. Monari caught it and aimed it toward the unstoppable enemy.


    ¡°I summon¡­Legion!¡± Once more the humongous dark god-like creature manifested in front of it¡¯s target. ¡°This should seal or victory¡­I also have this!¡± Kin revealed a 2nd card. ¡°Evolutionize!¡± The dark giant god was outlined in blue sparkles until it changed shape in a flash of light. All three were staring at a titan-sized creature with a buff body and flames all around it.


    ¡°What did you do!?¡± Gavin asked in shook by the drastic change in his creature¡¯s appearance. Kin smiled replying: ¡°He¡¯s evolved¡­even stronger than before. Though I can only use the card once per day so hopefully evolving him was the right call¡± The demon god moved so fast, the men couldn¡¯t keep track of him, or even know he moved until he was already gone.


    It went for a sword attack against the powered up Legion, but was stopped by it¡¯s single gigantic finger. Still silent, the opponent¡¯s eyes widened in shook by it¡¯s ineffectiveness. Legion flicked Demon god up so hard, it went soaring up into the atmosphere. As big as it was, Legion ascended up into the clouds toward his target with very little trouble, as if size wasn¡¯t slowing him down at all.


    Meanwhile Gavin helped AH over to Kin and their friend¡¯s corpse. Vogan floated over to them standing nearby in case their target managed to get past their Legion and reach them. Up in space the two creatures went head to head, the Demon god may¡¯ve been small in size, but their strength was nearly equal, each blow they threw with their bare fists cause clouds to change shape and alter the color of the sky.


    Suddenly Gavin had an idea, he pulled Marcia¡¯s deck out of her pocket, skimming through her cards for anything useful¡­Just as he reached the last few cards, he found a power-up card. (Where did she get this card? We just found out about these kinds of cards, and yet here¡¯s one in her deck) He slid her deck in his empty pocket while studying the card¡­


    ¡°Gohida¡¯s merge¡± merge any two creatures of close level together for the remainder of their fight until returning to their cards¡± He walked over to Kin and showed him the card¡­


    ¡°This could work! But it¡¯s not a high chance the fusion would work¡± Gavin raised his hand in Legion¡¯s direction calling him back. The being landed in front of them shaking the entire area from just landing. The boy tossed the card between Vogan and Legion. ¡°Gohida¡¯s merge!¡± he yelled. The two warriors nodded as they became beams of energy swarming around each other until becoming one in a flash of green light.


    Once it cleared, there stood a dark purple-armored warrior with incredible energy surging around his body. Demon god came charging the powered up warrior but was struck in the gut with over-whelming power. All of them watched as the punch sent trees flying off their roots from the incredible power. The god creature became transparent, as if it were about to return to it¡¯s card once in for all. However, it managed to stay in reality once more.


    ¡°This will be my final attack¡± It suddenly said surprising everyone of it¡¯s ability to talk.  Vogion smirked walking toward his foe slowly. The assailant continued charging up power until finally firing an over-powered blast that seemed to effect the very balance of space. But right as it prepared to make contact, Vogion stopped it with his bare hand.


    ¡°Impossible! I should be the most powerful being in the universe!¡± The god yelled still unleashing all his power against the merged creature. Demon God fell to his knees out of power. The path from him to Vogion was scorched with radiation and burns.


    ¡°Now, go back to your card¡± The warrior announced before punching his target in the face head-on, sending him smashing through several oak trees. Finally Demon God returned to it¡¯s card. Luckily the card came out of the abyss as the creature returned to it. Gavin walked over picking it up then handing it to Kin.


    ¡°Here, you can have it¡± He said. Kin looked him in the eye and said: ¡°But you went through so much to get that card, you lost your friend for it¡±


    ¡°True, but it would¡¯ve been much worse if you hadn¡¯t shown up. So to thank you, you can have the Demon God¡± Monari took the card putting it in his deck as both of them helped AH to his feet.


    ¡°What about her?¡± Kin asked looking at their dead friend. Gavin told them to go on ahead and he¡¯d catch up when he was finished. They nodded and made their way toward the nearest city. Gavin had the merged creature bury Marcia before it returned to it¡¯s card¡­


    Once finished he drew a heart in the dirt before catching up with his friends. They saw a sign for a city so they weren¡¯t too much farther. After about 20 minutes of non-stop walking, they reached the city limits. In no time they found a nice hotel to stay at. The rooms weren¡¯t expensive so they didn¡¯t have much trouble. They laid AH on one of the queen-sized beds while the other two sat on the couch trying to watch TV and rest at the same time. They placed their decks on a small table in the corner of the room before falling asleep¡­


    They woke up to find most of their cards had been stolen. Gavin looked out the open window to see a teen escaping with a small book-bag. ¡°Hey stop!¡± The dark-haired guy jumped out after him, wearing his black jacket and blue jeans. He landed on the street though his legs were still sore from yesterday. While Kin followed behind, Gavin checked his pockets for the cards he kept with him in case something like this happened.


    He pulled out his ¡°Physic Mind¡± A large physic metal skull that had plenty of useful abilities. He choose to use this card and keep it in his pocket to use a new creature for once instead of the same old one. The large skull emerged stopping the teen in his tracks by paralyzing him. They took him in a back ally so people wouldn¡¯t start freaking out.


    ¡°Physic Mind, read his thoughts and give us all the info you can¡± The skull¡¯s eyes lit up more with the green light¡­


    ¡°Arkensin Patterson¡­age 15¡­objective: to steal all high level cards and sell them to the higher bidder, going against his bosses¡¯ orders there for putting him in possible danger¡±


    ¡°Thanks Physic you can release him now¡± his user responded. The skull¡¯s green light went out and Arkensin was able to move. ¡°Now, you¡¯re going to return all of our cards before I have our creatures do something I don¡¯t want to see¡± That¡¯s when Kin saw the kid pulling out a card from his sleeve, Monari was about to counter when Gavin¡¯s creature shot a surge of green electricity at the kid to stop him from attacking.


    ¡°You must not know cards that well¡­if a creature that¡¯s been summoned, or a high rank card is faced with possible danger, it¡¯ll attack on it¡¯s own command or not¡± Their target laid there, once again unable to move from the attack. Kin searched the bag until all their cards were returned to them. They looked through the others finding a few good ones so they decided to keep some to improve their deck.


    ¡°Now, where is your boss¡­if you don¡¯t tell us, or you lie, I¡¯ll just have my skull read your mind and get the info from you¡±


    ¡°His name is Okami Doncu¡­I give him the best cards I can find and he pays me a decent amount depending on the rarity and power. I was looking for a card strong enough to take him and his corporation down¡±


    ¡°Hmm¡­let¡¯s say we helped you take him down and gave you, your own deck. Would you stop stealing other player¡¯s cards?¡± Gavin questioned crossing his arms.


    ¡°Deal, I¡¯ll give up stealing if you help me take him down¡± Gavin smiled as they went back to the hotel, letting AH know their new objective. They told him the plan was to reach Okami¡¯s corporation and take him down.


    ¡°Are you sure we can trust him? He did just steal our cards moments ago¡± AH commented.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, if he tries anything, he knows I¡¯ll just pull out a card to stop him¡± They waited until night, around 9 P.M when the sun just went down. They followed the boy to the corporation then hid just outside the camera¡¯s view. Gavin gave him a small earpiece so they could keep in contact. His job was to go in normally and give info on how many were inside and where they were located.


    Their ally walked up to the door. ¡°I¡¯m here to deliver my package to the boss¡± One of the tall suited men stepped aside as the automated door slid open. Meanwhile the other three were still outside in the bushes.


    ¡°Alright, while he give¡¯s us the info we need, AH will stay here and keep watch for anything that goes on outside such as someone strange entering the building¡± Kin turned to Gavin replying: ¡°When¡¯s our queue to move out towards the building?¡± The guy thought for a second then had an idea, he looked through his cards before pulling out one of the new ones.


    ¡°Go lightening Abyss¡± he said in a soft tone. A women dressed in yellow with golden hair and purple eyes emerged. Her summoner commanded her to take out all men in her sight and all the cameras without effecting the area¡¯s power so no one would notice. She walked past the group still hidden and put her palms together as if to pray. A fierce bolt of lightning shot from her body headed straight for the two guards before splitting into two, electrocuting both of them.


    ¡°This next one will take awhile, I sense a large quantity of electronics in there which I assume are cameras¡± They told her to take her time while Gavin put his hand to his earpiece in case there was an update. Meanwhile inside the large building, their friend reached the elevator and pushed the button for the top floor.


    ¡°What¡¯s the current situation? We have a natural-type being taking out all cameras in the area, but she says it will take a few moments, she has to locate each one so she doesn¡¯t alert anyone of her or our location¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m in the elevator making my way to the top floor. Hopefully you¡¯ll have the cameras shut down before they get  suspicious¡±


    ¡°Roger that, let us know if anything we weren¡¯t prepared for happens¡± The boy had a few more seconds until he reached the top floor. Lightning Abyss took a deep breath then opened her eyes as dozens of lightning blasts shot out of her body headed for each located camera. Each bolt struck the cam, knocking it out. The beams of light moved so fast that none of the guards noticed it. Once all cameras were offline, the being turned to them asking for her next objective.


    ¡°Your work is complete, return¡± her user responded holding up her card towards her. She bowed as she became a beam of yellow light, returning to her card. ¡°Alright, their offline. AH you keep watch outside like we planned while me and Kin move in to find an entry point¡± His ally gave him a thumbs up before the two made their way to the side of the building.


    ¡°Now how should we get in?¡± Gavin asked making sure they don¡¯t attract any attention. Kin pulled out a card called time freeze.


    ¡°We¡¯ll use this to get in without having to worry about being followed¡±


    ¡°What if we need that to escape?¡± His friend commented. Kin looked at the top of the corporation then back at him replying: ¡°They¡¯ll already know we¡¯re there, better use this to stay hidden for as long as we can¡± Gavin sighed motioning him to go ahead and use it. Kin shattered a locked window letting them in then raced for the elevator. Just as he heard someone yell halt he held the card up in the air


    ¡°Time freeze!¡± Gavin watched as the world became black and white, as if the world was drained of all color and everything was frozen. Kin changed direction for the stairs since time was frozen and no electronics worked. Though it was hard for them to see with it being night, and all the color gone.


    ¡°How long does this card last?¡± His ally aske as they raced up the hundreds of steps for the top floor. Kin told him it should last just long enough for them to reach the top or be a floor or two away from it¡­


    Once the time effect wore-off, their ally had given his boss all the cards he had gathered,  Okami looked through the cards before kicking it off his chair. ¡°This is the best you could do!? You¡¯ve done way better than this! Or are you holding out on me? Because I told you what happens to those that don¡¯t give me what I want¡± He turns to his left placing his hand on the statue of a scared women that had been turned to stone.


    ¡°I swear sir that¡¯s all I could manage¡±


    ¡°Well then¡­I¡¯m sorry to see you go¡± Okami began to pull a card out from his sleeve when Gavin and Kin burst through the door. Gavin pulled his Demon God card out but didn¡¯t show them.


    ¡°Stop right there or you¡¯ll face one of the five god cards of Pro-Gonda!¡± Okami began laughing holding his card in his hand calling the man¡¯s bluff. ¡°If you think I¡¯m bluffing, go ahead and activate your card!¡± Their friend stood frozen in fear watching the two men wait for one of them to make a move.


    Just then Okami revealed his card: ¡°Eyes of Medusa!¡± But Gavin didn¡¯t hesitate, he threw the card down calling out: ¡°Demon God!¡± The god card emerged once more in his dark armor. A green mist went from the card to the deity, but faded on contact.


    ¡°No, your creature should be a statue or at least pieces of stone by now! How could he resist the power of my card!?¡±


    ¡°Like I said¡­this is one of the five god cards. Meaning this creature is one of the strongest beings in the game¡± Okami just stared in shock when the two men guarding him summoned two creatures of their own. One was a shadow creature, the other an undead mage.


    ¡°Kill them!¡± the guards commanded. The shadow filled the room in darkness, it¡¯s eyes glistening with red light as a large shadow hand swiped over Demon God¡¯s torso. The scratch left a large wound but soon closed in seconds from it¡¯s regeneration ability.


    ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you thought a card like this didn¡¯t have something as reliable as regeneration. Gavin taunted. Kin pointed at the shadow creature commanding their deity to get rid of it. Their Demon aimed it¡¯s hand at the being announcing: ¡°Black hole rift!¡± Suddenly a tear in reality formed, a faint purple light could be seen as it sucked the shadow creature inside then closed.


    The guard fell to his knees in fear of the opponent¡¯s vast power. ¡°You won¡¯t defeat my creature!¡± The standing guard shouted confidently. Gavin laughed telling Kin to finish the fight while he talked with the boss. Kin agreed not taking his eyes of their target.


    ¡°Oh no you don¡¯t!¡± The suited man aimed his mage toward Gavin who paid no attention to their enemy. ¡°Kill that little shit!¡± His black suited mage pointed his staff at the open man charging up energy to attack, but as a silver blast of light went straight for the dark-haired boy, it was deflected back at the mage. The projectile blew up just a foot in front of him.  The mage and his user saw Demon God standing in front of them and their target.


    ¡°You¡¯ll have to get through me first¡± The deity responded with his hand on his large sword. Their foe charged up all his power into his staff before tossing it up in the air. Gavin turned around to see the staff levitating about the mage, shooting powerful bolts of lightning at their protector. But once more the attacks were deflected, hitting random parts of the room.


    ¡°This is ridiculous¡­end this Demon God¡± Kin commanded. The god moved so fast, the mage couldn¡¯t defend it¡¯s self. The creature was stabbed straight through the heart with Demon God¡¯s hand like a dagger. Blood dripped from the god¡¯s fingers before it and the being returned to it¡¯s card. Without a second though, the deity destroyed the card with a fierce plasmic blast.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry boss, I failed you¡± The suited man said also falling to his knees beside his fellow guard. Gavin pointed at the two, signaling their creature to deliver the final blow. Demon God nodded, pulling his dark blade out from his side. The two men stayed quiet as they were killed with one slash. Okami nearly vomited at the sight of his two men split in half in a pool of blood. Gavin made his way up to the boss.


    ¡°It¡¯s all over¡­time for you to face what¡¯s coming to you¡± A wave of light washed over the room while Gavin stood there grinning. Suddenly Okami pulled out a knife stabbing the boy through the heart, blood running down his shirt. A pool of his blood formed on the floor when at that moment¡­He began to laugh.


    ¡°W-what¡¯s so funny!?¡± The man demanded, his blonde hair all messed up from the stress and worry. Just then someone put a blade to the man¡¯s throat as Gavin melted into a red slime-like puddle, returning to the deity. ¡°S-so that was a fake? But how¡¯d you sneak behind me!?¡±


    ¡°That flash of light was your hint¡± The young adult replied slitting the owner of the corporation¡¯s throat. Seeing the man bleed-out did make him feel sick and uncomfortable but he knew this was the right course of action if they were going to put a stop to Okami and his company¡­


    CHAPTER 3 Chaos of the Player


    They made their way back to the hotel, it was 11 P.M, so Gavin and the others collapsed on their beds especially after helping AH back home. Luckily he was walking easier now so he didn¡¯t need as much help. Their friend laid on the couch. Before they fell asleep, he told them his name¡­Caro Samata.


    Gavin flipped through his cards and the new card he took from Okami. The group decided to rest for a few days so they¡¯d have the stamina for any possible battles. Just then the city begun to shake. Gavin and the others rushed out to see a large golden being up into the air above the sky. ¡°What is that!?¡± The boy asked with a worried tone in his voice. The others said they¡¯ve never seen anything like them before. All of the card users pulled out one card each, hoping it would be enough to stop the being¡¯s plan.


    Gavin summoned his demon god, AH summoned his death ninja, Kin summoned an angel and Caro summoned an undead. The ninja and demon god both went for the being that was way above the city. Luckily the ninja could fly like the demon. ¡°Take him down!¡± Both creatures went for the attack, demon god created a dome of fire, hoping to trap the target inside, but as the flames proceeded to condense, getting smaller around the golden creature, it suddenly died out.


    The pro-gonder stared in fear at the sight of his failed capture. Their target snapped it¡¯s fingers, suddenly the boy¡¯s deity was sealed within a sphere of golden light. His creature tried to break free but was no use, no matter what it did the barrier wouldn¡¯t break.


    ¡°Guess it¡¯s up to my ninja¡± AH commented. He ordered his fighter to unleash it¡¯s strongest attack. The ninja dressed in black, threw several daggers with an explosive on each one. Each projectile hit the enemy¡¯s abdomen, blowing up in a fierce explosion that lit up the night sky.


    Sadly, when the smoke cleared, the golden deity was still floating there unharmed. Both men fell to their knees, overwhelmed in doubt of their chances of winning. That¡¯s when the being held both hands out left and right. ¡°This world shall see the chaos of darkness! Behold!


    The four watched as a powerful wave of energy washed over the earth. Kin used his angel to seal all of them into a light blue barrier. Kin waited a few moments after the city stopped shaking before ordering his angel to drop the shield. To their horror, the entire city was destroyed, buildings leaning against each other with most of it¡¯s window¡¯s smashed.


    The world looked like an apocalypse. Even the sky was a dark red color. ¡°This isn¡¯t good¡± Kin commented as the group stared at the ruined world in horror. Suddenly the deity looked right at them. ¡°You three have managed to survive my destruction, there for you must be dealt with personally!¡±


    The monster took a powerful breath that began pulling the men towards it¡¯s large black mouth. Gavin was just about to get sucked up when AH managed to grab his arms. However, as each teen grabbed the other, they soon all lost their grip, becoming swallowed by the creature¡­


    (TO BE CONTINUED¡­)
