03x42 - Conquering the Past, Part 1

[bunniefuu]

[Thinking] I know you're out here.

I can feel it in my gut.

I don't like this!

Not even one little bit!

Jaden! Where are we going?!

To find jesse!

Again?!

But we have no idea where jesse is!

Come on!

We should stop and think this through.

Ojama yellow: judging by the fact that we're walking

In the middle of nowhere during a sandstorm,

I think it's safe to say that jaden's done thinking things through.

[Thinking] I just hope that if we keep following jaden,

Things don't end up like they did before

With everyone getting sent to the stars.

Come on, everybody, stick together!

Ojama yellow: stick together?!

How about I just try to stay in one piece?!

Aah!

Jaden: chazz!

Aah!jaden: alexis!

Whoa.

Hasselberry! Atticus!both: aah!

This storm's playing tricks on me...

Crowler: jaden, I can't go on, the storm's too strong!

[Groans] huh?

Hey, look!

[Gasping] what is it?!

Zane: it's a giant door of some kind.

Jesse's gotta be in there.

Where's he going?!

Who knows?!

Jaden, stop!

Uh!

Zane: when I say stop, stop!huh?

Zane?!

Listen, this is foolish, you can't rush into things.

But jesse!cannot be helped...

At least not by you I'm afraid.

You're still weak, who knows what's through that door.

And you've got to be ready for anything that comes up.

Jaden, the last time you dueled unprepared,

The darkness took you over.

A lot of bad things happened

'Cause you lost your way looking for jesse!

[Emotional gasp]

But jesse needs me!

I promise, I'll be more careful.

Come on!

It's for your own good.

You can't stop me.

Oh, yes, I can.

And I'm not afraid to show you how either.

That is if you're brave enough!

Well, are you, jaden?

What does zane think he's doing?!

Why can't we all just play nice?!

It's for his own good.

Zane'll prove to jaden the truth:

That he's not ready to duel.

Jaden, if you can defeat me,

You're free to go through that door.

Defeat you?that's right.

You need to duel to prove that you're strong enough.

To prove that you're still not haunted

By what you did when you were the supreme king!

Crowler: let's give them some room!

Okay.and, jaden, I'm not holding anything back!

And I'll start with this--

Armored cybern!

Then I'll play a facedown.

You're up.

Oh, if I have to.

I draw.

All right, I can do this.

Now, which...

Oh.aah!

[Screaming]

[Laughing]

Polymerization...

[Echoing] you must use its power!

[Gasps] no, I can't.

Its power hurt too many people.

I'll just summon clayman in att*ck mode.

Zane: att*ck mode?!huh?

What are you doing, jaden?

You know that monster's better in defense mode!

What were you thinking?!

I...uh...

[Thinking] I knew it!

Jaden's still terrorized by his memories.

He's too confused and afraid to duel like he should!

I'll, um...

Place three facedowns.

But what about fusion monsters?!

Something's not right.

I guess zane's suspicions are turning out to be true.

Crowler: jaden is scared!

It's my move.

I play...

Power bond!

Now I can fuse together

The three cyber dragons in my hand,

In order to form

Cyber end dragon!

Syrus!please, stop your brother!

This needs to happen.

[Roaring]

Oh.

And because he was summoned to the field

Using my power bond card,

My cyber dragon's att*ck points

Are doubled!

Are you just gonna stand there?!

Come on!

Aren't you gonna do anything to try and stop me?!

Fine, then, if you're not going to do anything...

I will!

I combine my armored cybern

And my cyber end dragon to form this...

[Echoing] my armored cyber end!

Now if I take away , att*ck points,

This dragon can really do some damage!

It can destroy one card on your field

Each time it att*cks!

Go, judgment cannon!

This might wake you up!

No!

And I'll do it over and over again!

Unless you stop me.

This is exactly what I thought would happen.

You could've countered my att*ck,

But you were too afraid to fuse your sparkman and spark blaster last turn.

Yeah. So tell me...

What else are you holding back?

Let's take a quick peek!

Hero barrier?

Why wouldn't you play that spell?

It could've stopped my dragon.

And why are you playing so afraid?

Where's the jaden that I used to know and duel?

Let's see, what else are you hiding?

Ah...

That was the trap emergency call!

Which means you could have summoned sparkman!

And if you throw in spark blaster and hero barrier,

You would have stopped cyber end's att*ck and destroyed my cybern!

Huh?

Argh! Ah...

Do you know what you are, jaden?

A shadow of the duelist you once were!!!

You can't rescue jesse like this.

[Groaning]

Why isn't jaden standing up to zane?!

All he has to do...

Is duel like he knows he can, otherwise he's going to lose.

He's just faking!

This is all just a trick, right?

I'm sorry, but you were right zane, I'm not ready...

Huh?

You see, when I was the supreme king...

I used the power of polymerization

To destroy everything in my path.

Now...i'm too afraid...

Too afraid I won't be able to control it!

But, jaden, that was the past.

That card can also do good!

[Thinking] but if he's to frightened to use polymerization,

It looks like I'm gonna have to go through that door

And find jesse myself!

[Whimpering]

Get outta the way, jaden!

I'm coming through![Gasps]

[Groaning]

Where'd his dragon go?!

Zane?!

He doesn't look so good.

Syrus!

He's hurt!

[Straining]

Just promise me...

That whatever happens going forward...

You'll conquer your fear,

And your past...

Before you go searching through that door!

Oh!

We're coming, zane!

What happened?!

Jaden, where you going?

[Zane panting]

My heart is weak.

All those years of fighting in underground duels

Have finally taken their toll.

[Screaming]

What now?

Syrus, keep an eye on jaden,

'Cause he's gonna need you more than ever.

[Gasps]

You got it, zane, get better.

Hey, what about me?!

Don't forget me!

Good luck, syrus.

It was noble of you to risk your health...

For jaden.

Crowler, he may be your only hope.

Yes, it's true, master!

Ha ha! Wonderful news.

Poor jaden is powerless.

[Chuckling]

Which of course means that the time is right for me to make my move!

[Evil laugh]

What did zane mean "conquer my past"?

[Gasp]

This village...

How could I cause all this destruction?

What have I done?!

Those poor people, there's nothing left but rubble.

Oh!

I play polymerization!

[Shuddering]

All this destruction...

It's my fault.

How can I ever duel knowing it might happen again?!

[Chirping]

I can't look at this anymore...

He really doesn't look too happy.

That's cause jaden's still filled with guilt.

He needs to realize

That everything that happened here isn't his fault!

But how?

That's easier said than done, syrus!

Uh-huh. You're right.

But that's why we're here, ojama,

To remind jaden that no matter what happened before,

His friends are gonna stand by him now!

[Jaden thinking] I remember this place.

It's the village of sir freed and his people.

And this was the home of the young boy kyle and his father...

Hmm...

Sir freed!

Oh!

This is the prison camp where I first came looking for jesse.

And that's the spot where I sent zure to the stars.

[Chirps]

I caused so much pain.

Hmm?

Brron's fortress.

Oh, no...

It's the arena where our friends got sent away!

[Groaning]

Huh?

[Screaming]

That's where my friends were all chained up until they...

They all vanished.

My friends are gone!

They're all sent to the stars!

Kuriboh, this is my fault! [Crying]

[Chirping]

Why did I do it?!

What kind of friend am i?

[Evil laughter]

Huh? What now?

And you call yourself the supreme king? [Scoffing chuckle]

I don't! He's long gone.

I know.

However, you can still help me get what I need.

Because, in some circles,

You're still revered as a duelist of great stature.

So you see, if I were to defeat you,

A victory like this would accelerate my rise to power.

Your inevitable loss will be my ultimate gain.

So then...what do you say we shuffle up and duel for your crown?

Huh? Hmm...

[Thinking] maybe this is my punishment...

Maybe it's time I join all the friends that I've let down...

And get sent to the stars myself.

Uh-oh!

It's like zane said! Jaden's still afraid!

Well, he better become unafraid and fast,

'Cause this guy means business!

Jaden, don't duel him!

[Thinking] why not?

Maybe it's my turn to vanish.

[Evil laughter] let's duel!

I'll go first.

And I'll start this duel off

By summoning fiend slime mold!

Next I'll lay down a facedown!

[Chuckling] I guess the rumors must be true.

You have lost your nerve.

I was hoping for at least one round of fun.

I guess it's my move.

[Sighs] not that it matters!

Hmm...

I summon elemental hero burstinatrix.

And she'll att*ck your fiend slime mold!

[Chuckling] is that all you could muster up?

Simply pathetic.

I take it that it must be hard

Being afraid to use a card that once supplied you

With unlimited power and boundless glory.

But nonetheless, this duel must continue.

I play the trap gravity gain!

And this stops your att*ck!

In fact, it stops any level- or below monster from attacking!

Without the ability to fuse,

Your deck's worthless!

Kinda like you! Ha ha!

And to think you were once the supreme king!

It's your turn...

Jaden's got no chance

Unless he can finally find the courage to forgive himself!

[Whimpers]

You think he will?i hope so.

Now I activate

The special ability of my fiend mold.

During my stand-by phase,

If I give up of my life points,

Take a guess what I get in return.

Another fiend slime mold in att*ck mode!

In fact, why should I just stick with one...

When two are twice the fun?!

Now I'll send one fiend mold to my grave

To keep gravity gain in play.

And then next, I send another fiend to my grave to summon...

This creature known as twinheaded beast.

[Roaring]

And since he's level ,

Forget about him being affected by my trap gravity gain!

Now, twinheaded beast, att*ck him at once!

[Growling]

[Screaming]

[Jaden groaning]

And guess what?

Twinheaded beast can att*ck twice each battle phase!

And with no defenses...

You take the full force of my att*ck!

[Roaring]

[Screaming]

I'm finished.

[Gasping]

Ah!

[Evil laughter]

My turn.

I draw...

Ah, not another fusion card!

I summon elemental hero wildheart.

His wildheart is immune to traps,

So there goes gravity gain.

Fortunately, twinheaded beast

Can still take him out in a fight!

Which means... Jaden's finished!

[Gasps]syrus.

It's me.bastion?!

So how's jaden doing these days?

We heard that he'd turned himself

Into some sort of dark and evil ruler!

Bastion!

He certainly isn't playing the part very well.

He doesn't look like he's ruler of anything.

He isn't the king.

At least not anymore.

But he's still haunted by all the dark memories,

And he's losing because of it!

Ah!he's losing?!

Syrus: that's right, bastion, and he doesn't have a chance!

You see he's afraid to use any fusion cards

Because of all the destruction they caused

When he was the supreme king!

[Evil laughter]

But if he doesn't play one now, he'll lose.

[Jaden thinking] I can't get past it.

These cards, they caused too much pain and suffering.

I won't...i won't use them ever again!

[Screaming]

All those poor people...

I can't risk it.

What if turn dark again...

I-- I can't win!
