The Cards Are Greater Then The Magic

Thinking 'Heyo'

Talking "Heyo"

Monster Stats

Twilight couldn't help but stare at Tyler, he had a smile on his face, but he also looked concerned. Tyler turned to twilight, staring right back at her for a few moments. Twilight was the first to look away as Tyler slowly did the same, looking around before checking his pockets. He was surprised when he felt a box in his jacket pocket, it was a bit heavy.

After Pulling it out, Tyler was surprised that the box was the same style as his Deck Box, a black box that had the picture of a white dragon on the front, but it was bigger and didnt have the name frames on the sides. While Tyler was preoccupied with looking at the bigger deck box, twilight had decided to take a look at the Dueling Disk on his arm. It had an incredible style and shined like it was made of metal.

However, after pressing a button on it, it popped up and the two wing like attachments on it sprang forward, attaching to one another and locking into place. The sudden movement caused Tyler to look away from his other deck box and look at the Dueling Disk in surprise. 'What?! It's real? Why did that guy just give it to me then...' Tyler thought, starting to let his thoughts trail back to his other deck box. If Tyler was correct. every deck he had made was in the bigger deck box. 'Why was it in my pocket...?' Tyler thought, but was soon interrupted from thinking about anything else when the lavender pony next to him spoke up again.

"Excuse me if I sound rude, but what are you?" Twilight asked, a look of curiosity on her face, but also a bit of fear. After all, she only met up to the waist of Tyler, so she had to look up to look him in the eyes. Tyler looked down at twilight, his grin had faded and was replaced with a look of concern with some seriousness behind it. Twilight took a step back because of this, unsure about what Tyler was about to do. 'Oh no, I made him angry, what is he going to do? He doesn't look too mad, maybe he was just upset at my ques-' Twilight couldn't finish her thought as Tyler chuckled, a smile crossing his lips.

"Its alright, I won't hurt anyone. But if you must know, I am a human. But I could be asking the same thing, as well as why am I here?" Tyler said, looking away from Twilight to look at the Duel Disk on his arm, starting to try and figure out how to put it back to normal. Twilight stared at Tyler for a few moments before her horn started to glow and a scroll floated over to her. Tyler pushed the same button as Twilight did, the Duel disk going back to a more comfortable position.

"Thank you for the information Tyler, but as for your other question." Twilight paused as she looked threw the scroll, trying to find the reason why the princess wanted Tyler here. "I can't quite tell you why, all the princess told me was to cast the spell to bring you here, she didn't say why." Twilight said. Tyler sighed and looked down at his deck. Twilight looked worried for a moment before walking out of the room.

'So, I'm in some kind of alternate universe, No idea how I'm going to go back home, and I'm in a library that belongs to a talking purple pony with wings and a horn...' Tyler thought, looking at his hand for a moment. Tyler reeled his hand back and punched himself in the gut, his eyes widening as he doubled over, holding his stomach. 'N-Nope, this is real...' Tyler thought, slowly walking over to a table, taking a seat so he can recover from his own gut punch.

Twilight had returned with a small purple dragon following behind her. Twilight also had a few books balanced on her back as she approached Tyler. Tyler was currently sorting threw the other cards he had in his other deck box. Twilight couldn't help but watch him with curious eyes as he sorted out the cards in certain piles. Twilight didn't know what I was doing, but her thoughts soon trailed over to the smaller deck box that was in Tyler's hand when he came threw the portal.

Tyler glanced at Twilight for a moment before following her gaze, a bit of a grin on his face. "If you want, you can look at them, and if you interested, i can teach you about it." Tyler said, but regretted it a bit when he saw her eye's sparkle a bit with excitement. Tyler chuckles nervously and took the deck bock, taking out a stack of cards with black card sleeves, counting to a total of 60. After that, he took out a much smaller stack of cards with red card sleeves.

Gently, Tyler put them in proper order, getting ready to explain the rules to Twilight, who already had a quill and parchment ready. "Now, the first thing to know is that each player must have a deck. A deck is made of cards like these" Tyler said, picking up the card on the top of his deck, showing it to twilight. It was the Monster Card: Pendulum Machine. Twilight wrote every word he said on the parchment, looking up at in once she was done.

Tyler smiled at her, he never thought he would be a duelist teacher. "Now, only a maximum of sixty cards are allowed and a minimum of forty cards are allowed. Now this card is what is known as a monster card, a level six to be correct." Tyler put the card back down on top of his deck and shuffled it. "There are other cards beside monster cards, like spell cards and trap cards. If you want, i can make you a deck and we can duel, a demonstration battle is one of the best way's to learn how to duel.

Twilight had a wide and large smile on her face that kind of creeped Tyler out as he looked at the small purple dragon. The dragon simply shrugged in response as Tyler scooted away from Twilight a bit and got to work on making her a deck while Twilight started to study his, writing down any new facts she found out.

Tyler set two separate piles of cards in front of Twilight, interrupting her from her study work. Tyler took his back as twilight observed her cards. Tyler quickly showed her how to shuffle and they both proceeded to shuffle there decks. Tyler was still shuffling his deck while twilight stared at his Dueling Disk. Twilights horn glowed for a moment and Tyler's Dueling Disk was coated in a magic aura, causing Tyler to stop, his eyes widening.

Slowly, the aura left Tyler's Dueling Disk and manifested onto the table. Both Twilight and Tyler stared at it as it slowly turned into a Dueling disk like Tyler's, but it was more suited for a pony and was a lavender color instead of a gray color. Twilight slowly put it on, it fit her perfectly. Tyler had a look of shock before shaking his head.

"Well, i guess now that you have a Dueling Disk, this can be a lot more fun. Come on, follow me outside." Tyler picked up his deck and other cards, walking up to the doorway. Twilight followed, the purple dragon following behind her. "Oh, I forgot to ask, who is this little guy?" Tyler said, but his smile faltered when the Purple dragon narrowed its eyes at Tyler.

"Oh, this is my assistant Spike, Spike, this is Tyler." Spike got over what Tyler said about being little and slimed at him. Tyler smiled back, extending a hand towards Spike, who took his hand and shook it, smiling back at Tyler. After the friendly handshake, Tyler proceeded to walk out of the library, looking up in the sky. It appeared to be early morning, so no one else, and no pony else was up ether. Tyler smiles and put his deck into the deck slot, the other stack of cards disappearing from view as Twilight did the same, her other stack of cards disappearing as well.

"Alright, the rules are simple, we both get four thousand life points, the first to have there's drop to zero loses. You make players life pints drop by attacking them with a monster." Tyler presses the same button Twilight pushed before, causing his Duel Disk to pop up and extend, attaching the two winged style like appendages together to form a playing field on his arm. Twilight does the same and the field in front of the both of them appear to change into something more fitted for cards.

"Now, we will both draw five cards, but i will go first so I can teach you how things work." Twilight nodded and had the quill and parchment floating beside her with her magic, writing down what he had said. They both draw five cards, as a Life Point counter appears above both of them, showing 4000, showing that the duel had begun. Tyler looked at his cards and smiled.

Twilight: 4000 LP

Tyler: 4000 LP

"First, I will activate a spell, a spell card can be activated during the Main Phase One and Main Phase Two. There are six phases total. The Draw Phase, The Standby Phase, The Main Phase, The Battle Phase, Main Phase Two, and The End Phase. The Draw Phase is when you draw one card from your deck, but only if you are second, if you are the first to begin, you can't draw during your Draw Phase." Twilight nodded and stared at her hand, the quill scribbling down the exact words he was saying.

"After the Draw Phase, The Standby Phase begins. The Standby Phase is a phase that does nothing unless if a cards effect say's otherwise. After that, The Main Phase begins, This is when you can summon your monsters, set cards, and activate spells. But you cannot summon a monster with 4 stars or higher onto the field unless if you sacrifice a monster for it. One tribute is needed for a five or six star monster, two needed for a seven or eight star monster and so on." Twilight was studying her cards as Tyler began his Main Phase.

"First, I will activate Pendulum Call!" Tyler said as he slipped the spell into the spell/trap zone, causing a flaring light to appear above him, making Twilight shield her eyes. Tyler held up a card as it floated up into the light, making it appear to shatter as the shards started to form into two new cards. "By discarding one card from my hand, I can bring two Magician Pendulum Monsters from my deck to my hand." the shards fully form and float down to Tyler as he grabbed them. "I have chosen Stargazer and Timegazer Magician! I'll get into what Pendulum monsters do later." Tyler said as Twilight stared at the scene before her, nodding.

"Next, I will activate Sacred Sword of Seven Stars!" Tyler said as a giant gold sword appeared behind him. He held up a card, revealing it to be Metaphys Armed Dragon just before it was slashed in half and faded away by the sword. "This allows me to remove a level seven monster from my hand or on my field from play so i may draw two cards." Tyler then proceeded to draw to cards from his deck, a grin on his face.

"You remember the two pendulum monsters I brought out from my deck? Well your about to get to know them a bit more." Tyler said as he picked out two cards from his hand, setting them on two different sides of his dueling disk and the two magicians emerged from both sides of his field as the sky above his field started to glow. "You see, pendulum monsters are both Spell and Monster cards. Both having different effects as a spell or a monster, and the only place they can go is on the pendulum scales. This however, Also allows me to have access to the Pendulum Summon. But we will get into that later. Now, I will now summon another Magician Pendulum Monster, Dragonpulse Magician!" Tyler said as a card appeared on the field in front of them, the said magician rising out of it, striking a pose. Dragonpulse Magician: Stars: 4 Atk: 1800 Def: 900 "I will then end my turn by setting one card facedown." A giant facedown card appeared in front of Tyler.

"Now, when you go first, you cant enter The Battle Phase, so you cant attack, Main Phase Two is just like The Main Phase, but if you already Normal Summoned a monster, you cant summon again. But you can Special Summon as many times as you want. The End Phase is just like The Standby Phase, but you end your turn once it is over." Tyler said as Twilights turn began.

She glanced nervously at her cards and then at me. "Oh, just so you know, you can set a monster facedown on its side as well if you want to go on the defensive, this is also how you use a Flip Effect." Tyler said as twilight started to calm down, taking a card from the top of her deck.

"I will activate Pot of Greed." Twilight said, assuming that Tyler already knew the effect, she drew two cards. She then set a monster facedown with three other cards in her back row, three giant facedown cards appearing in front of her.

Twilight: 4000

Tyler: 4000

"Draw." Tyler took a card from his deck. "I will first activate my set Spell Card and the Spell in my hand. Galaxy Cyclone and Mystical Space Typhoon! Galaxy Cyclone destroys one of your set spell or trap cards and Mystical Space Typhoon Destroyes one of your spell or traps." Two vortexes appeared and surrounded two of the cards in front of her, revealing them to be a set Trap Hole and Monster Reborn just before they visibly shattered. Twilight shielded her eye's as the winds whipped at her, slowly fading away. "Next, I will summon Jigabyte to the field!" A lizard humanoid creature rose up from the card that appeared in the front row of Tyler's field. Jigabite: Stars: 4 Atk: 1500 Def: 200

Tyler's grin turned into a smile as Twilight looked to see that her quill was  writing everything down. "Now, i will enter my battle phase. Jigabyte, attack Twilights Face Down Monster!" The lizard like creature gave a roar as it ran forward. "Electric Slash!" It quickly got to the facedown monster, slashing at it as its boxy erupted with electricity. A faded image of a female magician dressed in yellow robes appeared before it shattered, taking the card along with it as the shards glowed for a moment before going to Twilight, forming a card in front of her as she takes it. "Now, go Dragonpulse Magician, attack with Pulsating Blast!" The double sided blade in its hand spun as a white ring blasted off of it, heading right for Twilight.

However, her last facedown card flipped up, glowing, taking the blast for her, shooting out a rainbow blast of its own at Jigabite and Dragonpulse Magician, making contact and destroying them. Tyler's eye's widened in shock as both of his monsters where destroyed, a smile on Twilights face. "You activated a Trap Card Tyler, Mirror Force!" Twilight said with a smile on her face. Something felt right about what they where doing, but Twilight couldn't quite put her hoof on it, but it felt exciting. She looked at the Spell Card her Magician of Faith had given her. It was the Monster Reborn Spell Card.

Tyler smiled as Jigabites shards reformed themselves into a new card. "Jigabites Effect activates. When it is destroyed, I can Special Summon a monster with the same attack and defense as itself. Now, come fourth Inari Fire!" Tyler said as a card formed where Jigabite used to be, a fox that had fur that flared like fire rising out of the card, making a growling noise. Inari Fire: Stars: 4 Atk: 1500 Def: 200 "I will end my turn. Your move Twilight." Tyler smiled at her as Twilight drew a card from her deck.

"I will activate the Spell Card Monster Reborn" Twilight said as a large version of the spell card appeared in the monster field. Tyler stared at it as a very large figure emerged from it, causing Tyler's eye's to widen. "Now, come to my aid Guardian Eatos!" The figure appeared to be quite lady like and dawned white wings and a tribal suit. Guardian Eatos: Stars: 8 Atk: 2500 Def: 2000 Tyler stared at the monster with wide eye's before a smile crossed his face. "I will then activate Horn of Light and equip it to Guardian Eatos. But it wont be there for long as i activate Guardians effect, destroying the equipped spell card to banish three monsters in your Graveyard, giving Guardian Eatos a Total of four thousand attack points!" Guardian Eatos: Atk: 4000 Def: 2000 Tylers smile had grown bigger while Twilights monster had gained its new attack.

"Next, i will activate Raigeki, to destroy all the monsters on your field." Clouds formed above Tyler's field as it crackled with lightning, a lightning bolt shooting down and striking Inari Fire, making it give out a roar just before its formed shattered, leaving Tyler's field empty. Tyler had closed his eyes at this point as a excitement surged threw Twilight as she shouted the final sentence of the duel. "Now, Guardian Eatos, strike Tyler down with all of his Life Points with Guard Strike!" The Guardian extended its wings and flew forward, raising its blade above its head gaining speed as it brought its sword down on Tyler, slashing threw him like a hologram as Tyler yelled out as his Life Point Counter beeped, counting down to zero.

Twilight: 4000

Tyler: 0

Twilight Wins

The field before them dissipated as both of there Dueling Disks going back to normal, there cards going back to there respective places. Tyler fell to his knees, as he sighed, Twilight jumping around with joy. "I did it, I cant believe I did it! How did the monsters come out of there cards like that? How did they respond like that? How did it look so realistic-" Twilights rant was cut off when she was Tyler on his knees. Twilight didn't look so happy anymore as she trotted up to Tyler. "Tyler? Are you alright?" Tyler breathed in and out as a response to her question, lifting his head up to look at her.

"Yes Twilight, I'm more then alright." Tyler stood up, looking down at twilight with a smile on his face. "I have taught people how to play this game in the past, but they all gave up once they Dueled me. But now something that i heard is coming back to me, something that a wise and old Duelist had told me. It doesn't matter how hopeless the situation is, how much you've lost, or what your opponent says. As long as you have the bond of your friends with you, all you must do i believe in the heart of the cards and it will guide you to victory." Twilight smiled at him, but also found out what was making her so excited.

Twilight was scared of what Tyler would have done to her in there duel, but then she had remembered what she and all of her friends had gone threw. Just remembering her friends had filled her with hope. Hope that she would win the duel, and she did. Twilight was about to say something else, but was interrupted by a glow. Both Twilight and Tyler looked down, seeing that the glow was coming from Tyler's chest.

Tyler took a step back as the glow had grown brighter and brighter, Twilight and Spike having to cover there eye's from brightness. Tyler had felt a hot sensation starting to rise from his chest and continue to grow hotter as he felt something in grave onto his chest. The glow slowly started to fade, Twilight and Spike blinking there eyes to adjust to the absent glow. There eye's soon could see clearly, looking at Tylers chest. Tyler now had what resembled an Upside Down Pyramid with and eye on the front of it engraved on his Jacket with a golden color. Tyler soon gained his eyesight back and did the same as them. But that was not the biggest surprise he had noticed just now. The biggest one is when he heard a voice in his head, a very familiar voice.

'Hello young one, perhaps you could help me find my way.' It was Atem, The Forgotten Pharaoh.
