Eqg:The bonds of the duelists

“See it's not that bad.” Drake said holding a cup of punch as they the party go into full swing.

“All these people I'm starting to make .me feel claustrophobic.” Cosmic said shaking his head.

“Draky!” Pinkie yelled as she ran up and hugged Drake almost knocking him over. “This party is fantastic don't you think.”

“Yep, it’s all thanks to you.” Drake said hugging her back.

Cosmic smiled a bit at the sight, obviously happy for his friend.

“Come on Draky, dance with me!” Pinkie said leading Drake to the dance floor.

“Thanks for all the help getting the party together.” Pinkie said.

“No problem, I gotta spend time with you whenever I can.” Drake said with a smile as they danced.

“Now we just need to find someone for Cosmic, so he can be happy.” Pinkie grinned.

“I tried and failed, I don't think there is someone for him.” Drake said shaking his head

“There's got to be!” Pinkie almost screamed.

“It looks as if he’s happy to be alone ,you should leave him be.” Drake said putting his hands on her shoulders.

“Fine, for now.” She gave Drake a smile before starting to dance again.
Cosmic was leaning on a table drinking some punch when he noticed something. A couple weirdly dressed men were making their way toward him. The were dressed in black cloaks that hid their features quite well. All he could make out was one was quite talk while the other was unusually short.

“Cosmic Storm, we have business with you.” The taller man said in a deep voice.

“Oh and what pray tell is this business you speak of.” Cosmic asked almost mockingly.

“All will be revealed when the time is right, but ,for now, you must come with us.” The shorter man in a almost comically high voice.

Cosmic laughed “ What's wrong with you voice? Did you not hit puberty yet little man!?” He then began to laugh hysterically.

“Ergh perhaps we should just duel you into submission.” The short man.

“Oh no not a card game anything but that!” Cosmic mocked.

“Silence boy!” The tall man said punching Cosmic in the face sending him flying into the table breaking it in half.

“Stay here.” Drake said to Pinkie as he walked towards Cosmic and the two men. “What seems to be the problem here.” He said

“ Ah Drake Meteor,we will deal with you later,but first we have to acquire Cosmic Storm,move along now nothing to see here.” The short man said trying to shoo Drake away.

“Look whatever it is that's not the way to do it.. Wait deal with me?” Drake asked

“Yes yes,but we first wish to beat Cosmic 2v1 it's the best way to complete our plans.” The short man said waving his hand at Drake like your would shoo an animal.

“Thats unfair! I bet you couldn’t beat the both of us or... are you scared?” Drake said with a smirk.

“Scared how dare you! Come Sky High let us battle these welts.” the short man said addressing the taller man.

“Of course Shorty let us began.” Sky High said.

“What did I tell you about using my real name!? It's Gigantus when we are in public.” Shorty yelled at Sky.

“Wow someone has self confidence issues.” Cosmic said activating his duel disk.

“No duels in the store!” the Cafè owner yelled.

“Oh come on!” Cosmic whined.

“We should take this outside.” Drake said
The four Duelist the walked outside the cafe and activated their disks.

“Last chance surrender now!” Shorty cackled.

“Funny that's what I was about to tell you.” Cosmic smirked.

“Grrr why you!” Shorty said.

“ Duel!” They all said in union.

“I’ll go first.” Drake said drawing a card. “I place a monster face down in defense mode and end my turn.” He said placing a card face down on his duel disk.

“My turn I summon Kabzulas in attack mode!” Shorty said as a red dinosaur like creature appeared causing a rectangular hologram to flash momentarily reading: Atk 1700 ,Def 1500, “ I then set a card face down and end my turn.” Shorty finished.

“My turn,” Cosmic said drawing a card before saying . “ I summon a monster in face down in defense mode and I place two cards face down and end my turn.”

“I summon Sonic Duck in attack mode and set a card face down, I end my turn.” Sky said as a Giant green duck with a pail on his head appeared :Atk 1700 Def:700.

“Ok here goes.” Drake drew a card. “I summon Skilled Dark Magician in attack mode.” A black cloaked mage holding a staff appeared casing a hologram to flash up reading Atk: 1900 Def:1700. “And I flip Old Vindictive Magician activating its ability, destroy Kabzulas.” A red Armor mage holding a green staff appeared, it then shot a bolt of electric at the dinosaur causing it to explode.

“I activate my trap card Seismic Shockwave. Since you destroyed one if my dinosaur type monsters I can select three spell and trap zones on your side of the field,they can no longer be used and in three turn I can select a dinosaur monster from my grave and add it to my hand.” Shorty cackled.

“Of course he had a trap, anyway Skilled Dark Magician attack Shorty directly.” Drake said as the mage cast a blue bolt at Shorty, leaving him with 3100 LP. “I place one card face down and end my turn.”

“Alright then my turn, I draw!” Shorty said. “ I summon miracle Jurassic egg in defense mode!” A white egg appears in front him with a him that read: atk:0000 def:2000 “ I end my turn.”

“Alright my turn!” Cosmic said. “I flip summon Genex Ally Birdman!” A robotic anthropomorphic bird appeared before Cosmic it's hologram reading: atk:1400 def:400. “And now I tune my monster with Drake's monsters to Synchro summon: STARDUST DRAGON!” The three monsters flew in a straight line until three green circles merged them into a stunning,sparkling,white dragon with a blue chest.

“ Now I summon Black Dragon Collapserpent to Drake's side of the field.” a black and orange dragon with a black hole in it's chest appeared in front of Drake: atk 1800 def:1700.

“You can do that!?” Pinkie asked in surprised as she popped out of nowhere wearing a cheerleader outfit.

“The changed some the rules to tag duels recently,one if which allows you to summon monsters to your teammates field.” Drake explained.

“Oh….GO DRAKY ,GO STORMY GO GO GO!!!” She said jumping up down waving her pom poms.

“ Any way I'll finish my turn by having Stardust attack Sonic Duck!” He said as the white dragon destroyed the giant duck with a blast of white energy. This left his opponents with 2200 life points.

“Damn it this isn't good!” Shorty squirmed “ Their better than we thought.”

“Calm yourself Shorty we still have the cards our master gave us.” Sky said.

“Oh your right go on play that card!” Short cackled.

“Very well I play Master Summon!” Sky said playing a spell card.

“What i've heard of that card!” Cosmic said.

“Of course not this is a new card made by the boss himself!” Shorty cackled.

“With this card I can pay 1000 life points to summon any monster from my deck ignoring summoning conditions,I summon Obelisk THE TORMENTOR!!!”

“OH CRAP IS THAT WHAT I THINK IT IS!!!” Cosmic said as a huge blue giant broke out of the ground.

“ You lose you have no chance against a-” he was cut off when Obelisk turned around bitch slapped them both.

“Bitch, no one summons Obelisk in such a bullshit manner.” Obelisk said before the system declared Cosmic and Drake the winner.

“Um should we call an ambulance?” Cosmic asked Drake, “They don't look... conscience.”

“Maybe… It is the right thing to do.” Drake said as he winced looking at the them.

Cosmic got out his phone and dialed 911.

“911 what is your emergency?” A lady asked.

“Yea a couple weirdos are passed out in front Sunlight Cafè.” Cosmic said.

“Alright we'll send paramedics to pick them up momentarily.” The woman replied.

“Alright let's go back inside I guess.” Cosmic said walking back inside. What they didn't see was a glowing blue card fly from Sky’s deck and soar into the night sky.

Drake just shook his head and followed Cosmic in were Pinkie waited in a cheerleader outfit. “I knew you guys could do it.” She said waving pom-poms in the air.

“They almost had us,but something tells me,we would have won even if Obelisk hadn’t beat them himself.” Cosmic said giving Drake a knowing smirk. “Drake had that stupid grin thay he always has when he sets down magic cylinder.”

“I had a feeling it would come in handy.” Drake said with a shrug

“I know you would beat them even before Obelisk showed you had the plot on your side.” Pinkie said hugging Drake’s side.

“Well thanks for the vote of confidence I guess.” Cosmic shrugged.

“Let's get back to the party and celebrate your victory.” Pinkie squeled.

As they got back to the party Cosmic pulled Drake aside.

“Drake something tells me this isn't the end,those guys wanted something from us and we still don't know how the got a hold of a god card,we’ll have to watch each other’s backs.” Cosmic said his face dead serious.

“Gotcha.” Drake said with a nod before Pinkie pulling him away.
