Part 2: 02x09 - Furry Fury

[bunniefuu]

You selfish little weasel!

You said you would be home for dinner, remember?

That was, like, forever ago!

Kari, it's not really Yuma's fault.

Yeah, you should listen to Tori. She's not a weasel.

I know my grandson.

I'm sure he was just off dueling somewhere.

Right! I just had the adventure of a lifetime.

Yeah? Well, I'm gonna shorten that lifetime!

(woman on TV) ...fascinating discovery.

Hi, Haru. Hi, Yuma.

(laughs)

Hey, check it out. That's Master Roku!

(clears throat) On the grounds of Mr. Roku's duel sanctuary,

a stone statue honoring the famous warrior,

Commander Kiraku,

has recently been unearthed,

and it's causing quite a local sensation.

I've seen that face before.

I'm very pleased to have him with us today.

(both) It's Girag!

Just what kind of person was Commander Kiraku?

Hmm. He was a formidable warrior.

He defeated many corrupt leaders

and distributed the riches

that he won in his battles to his own subjects.

His generosity was celebrated,

and, as a result, he is still a beloved local legend.

That's Girag's face, no doubt about it.

And a number of other objects

were discovered along with the statue?

That's right. We found some interesting items.

Remnants of Kiraku's treasure.

(gasps) I think that's one of my dad's coins!

I am certain that it is. How?

The map that displayed the location

of the Mythyrian Numbers

indicated that one was at the duel sanctuary.

Ah! Then what are we waiting for?

You little...

Bye, Kari.

Hey! Come back here!

(singing in native language)

This is a joke.

All I do day after day

is wander around looking for Numbers.

(grunts)

Obviously this Commander Kiraku --

Hey. That looks like me.

Whoa. That thing looks just like me.

This thing is freaky.

It's really creeping me out.

It's a Number Card!

Kiraku. Huh?

Aah! Uhh!

I've been waiting for you, Kiraku.

Huh? It talks!

Commander Kiraku is the spitting image of Girag.

I wonder why they look like each other.

Maybe he's Girag's Barian granddad or something.

(yelling) Huh?

(yelling)

Look out!

Yuma!

(both yelling)

Aah!

Yuma!

(groans)

Are you okay?

(groans)

(laughing) Huh?

(high-pitched voice) Finally.

Finally, I'm free!

Girag.

Girag!

Who?

Quit fooling around.

(scoffs)

Hey, wait, stop.

It's me, Yuma Tsukumo!

Oh. I'm honored to meet you, Mr. Tsukumo.


Now, please excuse me.

But, Girag, I-- Hold it!

(grunting)

Give me back my body!

Did you guys hear that?

How can a statue talk?

I ain't no statue! It's me, Girag!

That's messed up.

How could this have happened?

I don't know,

but I got sucked into this statue somehow!

The me that's over there is a Number guardian!

Huh?

This is rather astonishing.

So the real Girag's a statue,

and the statue's the real Girag?

That can't be!

Oh, no? I'll prove it to you.

You always swipe food from that girl's lunch box

when she's not looking.

I know 'cause I seen you do it!

Ugh! And I kept blaming my mother

for not giving me enough to eat!

Who're you gonna believe, Tori?

Me or some big, ugly talking stone statue?

And you better believe I didn't forget about our duel!

I crushed you with Giant Hand, remember?

(both gasp)

Then you really are Girag!

(laughs)

Yes, that's right. We exchanged places.

So from now on, I'm Commander Kiraku.

But how'd you exchange places?

I've been trapped inside of that stone statue

for a very long time,

waiting for the day when I could be free again.

And the moment Commander Kiraku appeared before me,

I knew that day was today.

It seems that the legendary Commander Kiraku

really is Girag.

Uhh!

Yuma, you gotta b*at him in a duel

and make him give me my body back!

Why would I want to help you?

'Cause he has a Number.

Yuma. Huh?

If he has a number, we must do it.

You're right.

Listen up, whoever you are.

Get ready to duel.

If that's what you want.

I waited a long time for my freedom,

and I'm not giving it up now!

All right, then!

Yaaah!

Duel Disk! Go!

Duel Gazer! Let's roll!

(computer voice) Augmented reality vision link established.

(both) Let's duel!

(both) Let's duel!

You've got to win this, Yuma!

Yeah. Please.

Well, this should be fun.

My turn.

I draw!

I summon Baby Raccoon Ponpoko!

Oh! What a cutie!

Next, I'm activating the spell card Leaf Transformation!

It lets me summon another of my furry friends

to join the band!

Come on out, Baby Raccoon Tantann!

They will not be here long. Yeah, I know.

I overlay Level Two Baby Raccoon Ponpoko

and Baby Raccoon Tantann!

With these two monsters,

I build the Overlay Network and Xyz Summon!

Number Ronin Raccoon Sandayu!

That's the fifth Mythyrian Number, Astral.

I activate Ronin Raccoon's special ability!

Once per turn, I can use an Overlay Unit

to summon one Kagemusha Raccoon Token!

And check it out.

These pelty pals have the same number

of att*ck points as each other.

(groans)

Then, as long as this Token is on my field,

you're not allowed to att*ck my Number,

so it's protected from anything

you're thinking of throwing my way.

With that, I end my turn.

My move. I draw.

All right. Super sweet.

You know what to do. Oh, yeah.

Huh?

I place one card facedown!

(thinking) What's he planning?

Whatever it is, it's time to ruin it!

Yuma.

You have...whiskers.

Huh?


How come I'm over there?

He must have... switched bodies.

Hey, that's cheating!

Now he can see my card.

Hmm. What have we here?

(sinister laugh)

When there's no monster on my field,

I can summon this pathetic and weak Toy Knight from my hand!

That is the wrong play, Yuma.

Astral! Tori!

I'm him... I mean he's me!

Well, I can't tell who's who.

Tori, this guy is me. This is Yuma!

(crying) And I did swipe food from your lunch box!

I'm so sorry!

Let's talk about this later.

I told you he did it!

Yuma, you are not you.

(sinister laugh)

Give me my body back!

(laughs) I'm the master of your body now,

as well as your cards.

So what shall I do?

Ah, yes. This will do just the trick.

Since I have that facedown card on your field,

I can summon Dododo Witch!

The optimal move is to Xyz Summon now.

I tribute Toy Knight and Dododo Witch!

Don't do that.

But it's the perfect way to totally mess up your game!

(sinister laugh) I summon Dododo Swordsman in att*ck mode!

Hyah!

That's terrible!

Yuma could have summoned Utopia,

but that plan has been foiled.

Now I'm activating the spell card Monster Reborn,

so I can bring back Toy Knight from the graveyard!

Next, I'm activating the spell card Guard Plus.

I send Toy Knight to the scrap heap

so that Dododo Swordsman gains defense points

equal to that lame toy's att*ck points.

Bye, bye, Toy Knight.

Dododo Swordsman gains defense points!

That doesn't help. It's in att*ck mode!

Now, Dododo Swordsman,

it's time for you to take off and att*ck!

Fine! But you finally made a mistake,

because you're the one who's gonna take damage!

We'll see about that.

Hey. What...

(grunts)

Aah!

I like being back in Kiraku's body.

(groans)

Uhh!

Okay, whatever you are, enough is enough.

What's your story, huh?

I was Kiraku's body double.

His shadow warrior.

Shadow warrior?

Kiraku was a hero,

and all the people loved him,

but they never knew that it was actually me.

Who would have thought the greatest,

most fearless warrior of their time

was actually a raccoon.

(all) A raccoon?

You just said you're a raccoon, right?

This is an interesting development.

Kiraku and I first met on the b*ttlefield.

I had been caught in a fierce battle.

When it was over, he saw me and saved me.

To repay him, I used my powers

and transformed into Kiraku and became his double,

his "shadow warrior."

I battled in his place. I was strong and clever.

I won his wars, conquered his enemies,

and the people hailed me as the hero.

But he became suspicious and jealous of my power,

so he sent me away.

When Kiraku finally went into battle himself,

he lost everything.

If he had only trusted me, I would have won.

He deserved what he got.

Eventually, I followed Kiraku into the great beyond.

But I found myself trapped.

My soul was destined to spend eternity

sealed inside that lifeless statue of Kiraku.

I refuse to be a shadow!

I will be a real warrior!

You're a thief!

Yuma, you gotta b*at him and get my body back!

Do not forget.

There is a Number on the line.

You must defeat this shadow warrior at all costs.

Yeah, Astral, I know.

Hey, you, listen up.

I'm not a big fan of Girag.

He's a bully, a cheater, and a liar.

And those are the good things.


Wait, did he--

Keep your comments to yourself!

But, see, the thing is...

I still can't bring myself to punish him.

Yuma.

You don't have to punish Kiraku.

I dislike that guy enough for the both of us.

My turn! I draw!

I activate Ronin Raccoon Sandayu's special ability!

It uses an Overlay Unit to strengthen my furry forces!

Ronin Raccoon Sandayu, att*ck!

(growls)

I'm not done!

Kagemusha Raccoon Token, go get 'em!

(growls)

Aah!

Now when my last Kagemusha Raccoon Token att*cks,

you two are through!

That's not gonna happen.

(thinking) Hmm? Is he talking about his facedown card?

I thought he only played it to summon Dododo Witch.

No way.

You're not gonna trick me, kid!

Kagemusha Raccoon Token, att*ck him!

All right, I activate my trap!

Burst Rebirth! Burst Rebirth?

By giving up half my Life Points,

I can summon a monster from my graveyard

facedown in defense mode.

Welcome back, Dododo Swordsman.

Dododo Swordsman?

Kagemusha Raccoon Token, retreat!

(growls)

(thinking) It's okay.

I still have exactly what I need to win this.

I place one card facedown and end my turn!

Well then, I draw!

I summon Dododo Swordsman in att*ck mode!

(grunts)

Why would you do that? You have no att*ck points.

Not so! When Dododo Swordsman is flipped over,

it gains att*ck points!

Yeah, the difference between my life points and yours.

(groans)

That's , points.

(grunts)

Dododo Swordsman has another special ability:

it can slice and dice two monsters on your field!

My monsters!

Dododo Swordsman, get ready to cut that Raccoon down to size!

(growls)

(groans)

It's time!

I activate the trap Raccoon Reversal!

Not only do I destroy your Dododo,

but you take damage equal to its att*ck points!

You've been outfoxed,

or should I say, out-raccooned!

Victory is mine, and so is my freedom!

Victory is mine, and so is my freedom!

So sorry to disappoint you!

What's that card? What's it do?

By sending Chow Chow Chan to my graveyard,

it not only stops your trap card's effect,

but I get to use its effect instead!

(barks)

The effect of Raccoon Reversal is all mine now.

This can't be.

Destroy Ronin Raccoon Sandayu!

Now you take damage

equal to your furry friend's att*ck points.

That's a thousand points!

Dododo Swordsman, att*ck him directly with Brimming Blade!

(grunts)

Aah!

That's can't be happening!

Ponta!

(gasps)

Huh?

I can't-- I can't believe I lost the duel.

I-- I'm a failure.

No, you're my friend.

Master?

It's been a long time, Ponta.

Am I hearing what I think I'm hearing?

Girag really is Commander Kiraku after all.

Why did you send me away?

Because I knew that final battle would end in defeat.

No! You know that's a lie!

If you had only let me lead the troops--

No. What?

The nobles who didn't like the fact

that I was distributing their riches to the poor

plotted against me.

By the time I realized,

there was nothing I could do to defeat them.

I knew I had to make sure

that you would survive and be free.

(crying) You should never have done that!

I would have rather been with you to the very end,


fighting by your side!

A friend never leaves a friend.

If we battled together, I know we could have won.

(sobbing)

I want you to have the Number.

Thank you for reuniting the two of us.

Okay, Astral.

(both gasp)

Master Kiraku.

Oh, my little furry friend.

You fool! You think I actually care about you?

I faked it so I could get my body back!

I sent you away once, and I'll do it again!

Oh! Oh!

Don't do it, Girag!

See ya! Ha ha ha ha!

You all fell for that stupid story

of me trying to save this furball?

That just proves how dumb you all are!

You better get ready for the next time we meet,

Yuma Tsukumo,

'cause it'll be the last time.

I'll be ready, so bring it.
