Roses are Red

[Raine Krone]

Roses are Red,
Violets are blue,
Somethings in the air,
Smells like a duel!

The tournament has begun, all must gather round to bare witness to what may be one of the best tournaments yet. The colosseum is shaped like a giant heart. The heart is ripped through the middle to signify where the holograms will go. Now it begins... good. Raine smiled, staring down at the colosseum. "This should be a good show." The other rose leaders were standing in a row next to him. They were all waiting for the registrations to finally close.

[Raine Krone]

Raine would jump down from the stands and land on the platform. "Enemies become friends and friends become enemies. This tournament has 2 representatives from 2 different roses." Raine smiled, "A pact between roses shall be soiled in this tournament. The winner shall not only recieve a special card of their choice, but they shall also recieve 30 duelist points plus 20 points per win!" Raine looked around, "This tournament shall have special rules, allow me to explain."

Raine would tap a pad on the stadium he was standing on. The other stadiums would vanish. "This shall be a 4 duelist free-for-all!" The crowd would cheer, mainly composed of neutral citizens. True, Raine was dissapointed that his rose color wasn't competing. But he needed to make a good impression. "I Raine, leader of the Shrouded Ones will also be the master of ceremonies. So without any further ado..." Raine would look around at the duelists all situated in a corner. "DUEL!" Raine would walk to the side of the stage, he would be the ref. "Now I'd like to ask everyone to reveal the top card of their deck after shuffling. Highest attack goes first. Spells and Traps count for 0 attack."

[Wing Sung]

Wing looked quizzically at the flamboyant display from the Blue Rose leader. Shuffling her deck anyways, she showed that her top card is Prime Material Dragon (2400/2000) and awaits the other to show their top card.

[Richard Ombradellupo]

Well this will certainly get interesting. Richard shuffled his deck the best he could and drew his card. He knew his deck well and he knew he never had any monster card with an attack higher than 2400, but that never mattered in a duel every card counts, his deck alone should be a testimony to that. Richard looked at the card he drew: Mad Dog of Darkness; 1900/1400 Well i am not going first.

[mojo]

Mojo shuffled his deck and watched everyone draw their cards the highest being 2400. Mojo drew his card which was a trap card.[/color]"Well,I'm last ain't I."[/color]

[Neoblader]

Gabe walked up to the b duel area with an angry expression. Apparently, the duel had been changed to a 4-man free for all at the last minute.

"d**n Blue Rose!", he pictured punching him in the face. He wasn't a fan of this kind of duel. He preferred a 1v1 anyday. He wasn't even sure what he should do. He drew his card as instructed and revealed it to be Gladiator Beast Andal with 1900 attack points. It looks like he is going second.

[Raine Krone]

"Now then, place the card you revealed at the bottom of your deck. Then we commence dueling. Each one of you shall start with 6000 lifepoints instead of the normal 8000. Let's begin the duel!" The crowd would cheer.

[Wing Sung]

Wing sighed as the irony was immense. For these types of duels, she did not want to go first, but what are you going to do? Shrugging, she activated the holograms and let it complete the transformation to Angelic Hero Eternia. Looking at the six cards that appeared in front of her, she set 1 monster and 1 m/t and passed it onto the next person.

During the next person's Standby Phase, she activate the trap, Royal Decree. Waiting to activate this card will just be stupid in a free for all type duel.

[Richard Ombradellupo]

**there was a tie for the next highest so i am just going to go.**

Richard looked to his three opponents as he activated his hologram. Richard smiled as he face started to grow his teeth becoming larger and his already present hair turning gray and expanding into fur. Richard flex his muscles as they expanded ripping his shirt, well though the hologram of course. Richard's hologram simulated and ferocious howl signaling the completion of the transformation.

Alright i got three opponents and 6000 life points, this will be different. Richard's cards appeared before him as well as a extra one for his draw phase. Already traps are out of commission, for now. Better play it safe.

"I sent one monster face-down and end my turn."

[Yuki Tatsumi]

Yuki took her seat as she watches the duel unfold. White rose against green rose, this should make for an interesting line-up. Of course, since this is a 4-way battle, anything could happen. After looking at the Blue Rose leader's display, she began to wonder if he has a case of split personality, or is just a great actor. Pondering, she decided that the latter was the case. As there is nothing to do but to watch this unfold, she leaned back and patiently watch the duel.

[Neoblader]

Gabe was reaching for the top of his deck but instead of drawing he placed his hand on it and gave a low sigh as he spoke the words, "I surrender." He looked up as the crowd stared in confusion. He could hear the whispers and mumbles coming from the audience.

"This isn't a duel. This a brawl." He gave a stern look at the Blue Rose announcer. Then looked up at the still-confused audience. "An unorganized-", he looked at the announcer as this statement was directed at him, "-ridiculous event like this shouldn't even be considered a duel!" He turned, and walked out with his deck after saying a few more words to the announcer, loud enough for the stone-dead silent crowd and the duelists to hearhim, "Next time you schedule an event make sure you include the type of duel instead of just slapping the word 'duel' on it, moron". Some of the people mumbled, 'Oooh' while others simply giggled, holding back their laughter. Gabe walked outside and headed home disappointed with what the so called ' duel' turned out to be.

[mojo]

Mojo watched as gabe quit and stormed out "Are you serious now this is basically a handicap!" Mojo didn't quit though as he drew his cards and placed one face down monster in defensive position and two traps or magic cards. "This is in no way fair,but I will not quit."

[Wing Sung]

Well, that spectacle was certainly entertaining, with the number of opponents down to two, it should make this duel that much easier. The next card appeared, and took a look at the activated deck masters, and it looks like she has a choice of attacking either a beast deck or a warrior deck. Glancing back at her monster, she wondered which of her opponent's monster will have a less defense stat. As the silver chicken like monster gets summoned on the field, Wing said in a tired voice, "Horus LV 4, summoned, and attacks the wolf's monster."

[Richard Ombradellupo]

So a possible dragon deck. No matter.


"You attacked my Skull dog Marron! (1350/2000) You lose 400 life points."

[Wing Sung]

Shame, she was expecting a searcher. But then again, it could be worse, Wing knows that she could have ran into Big Shield Gardna. Seeing as there is nothing that she can do, she ended her turn.
