Seto spread his arms wide, facing the countless Ka chiseled in stone before him in his temple. “Now! The mightiest of all of you! Come forth and defend our home!” Multiple diffrent Ka glowed. One of them was Duos. Another one leaped out, revealing himself to be a centaur. He held a large shield and a long spear. The sounds of roaring, growling, hissing, and numerous others filled the temple, as well as the others. The unmistakable screech of the legendary blue dragon joined in. _ Shimon was in his temple, holding the Millennium Key. He had asked Shada if he could use it, and the priest had agreed. Muttering under his breath, the retired priest spoke commanding words, the Millennium Key glowing white hot instead of yellow. “Oh Divine Warrrior that holds extreme power, that with it’s strength could destroy a thousand cities in one night, come forth and lend us your aid! Split the earth! Destroy your enemies! Let the world know you will never back down from a fight!”_ Deep beneath the earth, a large hulking form trembled, hearing the powerful command to rise up. Pulling against the chains that bound it, the huge Ka bellowed, punching the rock ceiling above it, reaching upwards through the ground. Continuing to smash it’s way through, the Ka reached the final layer of earth and broke through, rising up out of the ground and towering a good deal higher than the palace. The Ka clenched it’s fists, throwing back it’s head and bellowing. The chains dragged through the earth, still binding the humongous Ka, but allowing it some free movement now that it was above the ground._ Shimon nodded, panting. He had used an extreme amount of Ba to summon forth the mighty creature. “Welcome, Exodia The Forbidden One.” Exodia made a rumble sound in answer. Isis ran towards Shimon, Ipiria following behind. Isis put an arm around the trembling elder. “Are you alright?” Shimon was too tired to answer. Isis glanced at Ipiria. “Use your Life Healing Ipiria!” The Ka spread her wings, singing a wonderful tune. Sparkles of light drifted around Shimon, and soon his exhaustion was gone. He stood up straight, giving Isis and Ipiria a grateful smile. “Thank you.” Isis smiled back. “Yes. But the battle hasn’t begun yet. I’ll be here if you or anyone else needs their Ba replenished.” Shimon made a noise of agreement, turning away and facing foward, looking out over the city._Now, millions of Ka had filled the ground and sky, waiting for the time to strike. A cold wind blew, and dark clouds drifted towards the palace, lightning flickering in the depths._ Mahado obeserved the Ka, narrowing his eyes. His staff glowing, Mahado pointed the staff towards the middle of the narrow walkway, and a large stone slab rose out. Stepping foward a bit and catching Evil Bakura’s attention, he spoke. “Now. Whoever loses this fight their Ka will be sealed in this stone. I plan to imprison your Diabound once and for all.” Evil Bakura laughed at him mockingly. “Keh. By all means go ahead and try.” Mahado smiled grimly. “I will! Illusion Magician! Take out his Diabound!” Illusion Magician leaped fowards, raising his staff and shooting multiple streaks of light into the air. Mahado charged his own magic and shot high voltage electricity into his Ka’s magic. The air crackled with power and numerous bolts of light shot towards Diabound. Evil Bakura, still rendered unmovable by the trap he was in, was unable to get out of the way. “Diabound!” He shouted. The Ka placed itself in front of it’s master, a large ghostly shield forming in front of it. The magic strikes bounced off, but Mahado didn’t seem bothered. “Go! Illusion Magician! Counter with mirror shield!” The Ka traced it’s staff in the air with the intention of forming a rectangle. A colourful shield appeared, refelecting the already reflected magic and bouncing back towards Diabound. It broke through Diabound’s shield and struck the monster in numerous places. It roared, it’s snake tail flicking. Evil Bakura yelled, as he started bleeding from multiple spots. Diabound used it’s snake tail and captured the Illusion Magician, biting down on it. The Ka struggled, while Mahado knelt down, feeling his form being crushed. “No...not yet...” He muttered. Standing up, he flung a bolt of magic at Diabound’s tail, slicing through the scales and freeing the Illusion Magician. Evil Bakura’s Ka roared angrily, retracting it’s now heavily bleeding tail. The white haired spirit laughed lowly. “Heheheh. Diabound! Show this gnat your acquired powers!” Diabound roared, before shooting fire out of it’s mouth, a fiery lion in the flames. It headed towards Mahado, the flames illuminating the room they were in. Mahado’s Ka leaped in front of Mahado, raising up the mirror shield. Mahado gasped. “That won’t be enough! Move out of the way!” But his Ka refused. Mahado braced for impact before a young female voice rang out. “Black Magician Girl! Silk Hats! We must protect our masters!”
