Events[]
Prior events[]
Alexis Rhodes arrives at the Abandoned Dorm and places a rose near the entrance.
After hearing a ghost story about the Abandoned dorm Vellian Crowler concocts the perfect plan to get Jaden kicked out of Duel Academy.
In Domino City a man with a Millenium Item replica steals the soul of the duelist he defeated. He gets a call to come to Duel Academy Island.
Interested, Jaden heads to the Abandoned Dorm with Syrus Truesdale and Chumley Huffington right behind him. They arrive and are confronted by Alexis who tells them the Abandoned Dorm is off-limits and anyone who gets caught here is expelled. This is due to the stories about students disappearing here, hence why the dorm is abandoned. One of the students, according to Alexis, was her older brother Atticus Rhodes. Even more excited, Jaden enters the dorm, followed by Chumley and Syrus.
Alexis is ambushed by Titan who uses her as bait to lure Jaden in a dueling arena. He challenges Jaden to a duel for Alexis's soul and if he loses he shall be next.
The Duel[]
Jaden Yuki vs. Titan[]
 | This Duel uses Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime gameplay. Rules and card effects may differ from that of the TCG/OCG. See the individual card articles for more information. |
Turn 1: Titan
Titan draws. He then Normal Summons "Infernalqueen Archfiend" (900/1500) in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Infernalqueen Archfiend", the ATK of all "Archfiend" monsters wil be increased by 1000 as long as "Infernalqueen Archfiend" is face-up ("Infernalqueen Archfiend": 900 → 1900 ATK). Titan then activates "Pandemonium". Now neither player has to pay LP for the Maintenance Cost of an "Archfiend" monster during the Standby Phase. When an "Archfiend" monster is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard, that player can add one "Archfiend" monster with a lower Level than the destroyed monster from his Deck to his hand.
Turn 2: Jaden
Jaden draws "Hero Signal". Jaden's hand contains "Elemental HERO Avian", two copies of "Mirror Force", (one of these copies was replaced by "Polymerization" in the Dub) "Emergency Provisions", and "Mirror Gate". He then Normal Summons "Avian" (1000/1000) in Attack Position and Sets two cards.
Turn 3: Titan
Titan draws. He then Normal Summons "Terrorking Archfiend" (2000 → 3000/1500) in Attack Position since he controls an "Archfiend" monster. "Terrorking Archfiend" then attacks "Avian", but Jaden activates his face-down "Mirror Gate" to switch control of both battling monsters before damage is calculated. However, Titan activates the effect of "Terrorking Archfiend" to roll a die (Play a roulette with six balls numbered 1 through 6). If the result is a two or five, Jaden's "Mirror Gate" will be negated and destroyed. Titan gets a two (Indicated by the flame landing on 2), so "Mirror Gate" is negated and destroyed. "Terrorking Archfiend" then destroys "Avian" (Jaden: 4000 → 2000 LP). Jaden then activates his face-down "Hero Signal" to Special Summon "Elemental HERO Clayman" (800/2000) in Defense Position.
At this point, Titan uses his Millenium Item replica to convince Jaden half his body has disappeared.
Turn 4: Jaden
Jaden draws "Pot of Greed" and subsequently activates it to draw two cards. He then activates "Polymerization" to fuse "Clayman" and "Elemental HERO Sparkman" to Fusion Summon "Elemental HERO Thunder Giant" (2400/1500) in Attack Position. Since "Thunder Giant" was Fusion Summoned, Jaden activates its effect to destroy "Terrorking Archfiend", but Titan activates the effect of "Terrorking Archfiend" to roll a die (summon the roulette). Titan gets a five (Indicated by the flame landing on 5), so the effect of "Thunder Giant" is negated and "Thunder Giant" is destroyed.
Jaden activates "Mirage of Nightmare". Now during each of Titan's Standby Phases, Jaden can draw until he has four cards in his hand, but during each of his own Standby Phases, he must randomly discard the same number of cards he drew through this effect. Jaden Sets two cards.
Turn 5: Titan
Titan draws. During Titan's Standby Phase, Jaden draws four cards via the effect of "Mirage of Nightmare". "Terrorking Archfiend" attacks directly, but Jaden activates his face-down "Mirror Force" to destroy all of Titan's face-up Attack Position monsters.
Since "Terrorking Archfiend" was destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, Titan sends "Desrook Archfiend" from his hand to the Graveyard via its own effect in order to revive "Terrorking Archfiend" (2000/1500) in Attack Position. As an "Archfiend" monster was destroyed and sent to the Graveyard through a card effect, the second effect of "Pandemonium" activates, letting Titan add another "Desrook Archfiend" from his Deck to his hand (as its Level was lower than the Level of "Terrorking Archfiend").
Jaden activates his face-down "Emergency Provisions" to send "Mirage of Nightmare" to the Graveyard and gain 1000 LP (Jaden: 2000 → 3000 LP). "Terrorking Archfiend" attacks directly (Jaden: 3000 → 1000 LP).
Turn 6: Jaden
Jaden draws. He then activates "The Warrior Returning Alive" to add "Elemental HERO Avian" from his Graveyard to his hand. Jaden then activates "Polymerization" to fuse "Avian" and "Elemental HERO Burstinatrix" to Fusion Summon "Elemental HERO Flame Wingman" (2100/1200) in Attack Position.
"Flame Wingman" attacks and destroys "Terrorking Archfiend" (Titan: 4000 → 3900 LP). The effect of "Flame Wingman" then activates, inflicting damage to Titan equal to his destroyed monster's ATK (Titan: 3900 → 1900 LP). Titan sends the "Desrook Archfiend" in his hand to the Graveyard via its own effect in order to revive "Terrorking Archfiend" (2000/1500) in Attack Position. Jaden Normal Summons "Dark Catapulter" (1000/1500) in Defense Position.
Turn 7: Titan
Titan draws "Skull Archfiend of Lightning". He then Tributes "Terrorking Archfiend" to Tribute Summon "Skull Archfiend" (2500/1200) in Attack Position. "Skull Archfiend" attacks and destroys "Flame Wingman" (Jaden: 1000 → 600 LP).
Titan then uses his Millenium Item replica to convince Jaden to sleep. Jaden is trapped in darkness until Winged Kuriboh convinces him to look at Titan and uses it's body to pierce through the darkness. Jaden awakens from his trance and exposes Titan as a fraud, using hypnosis to make his opponents believe they are playing a Shadow Game.
Turn 8: Jaden
Jaden draws. On Jaden's Standby Phase, "Dark Catapulter" gains a counter due to its first effect. Jaden then activates the second effect of "Dark Catapulter" to remove the "Avian" in his Graveyard from play and remove a counter from "Dark Catapulter" to destroy "Pandemonium".
At this point, Jaden's body returns as it was never affected, since the Shadow Game was a ruse. Titan tries to hypnotize Jaden again using his Millenium "Pendant" but Jaden hurls the removed Avian card right in the pendant's eye, thus revealing the Millenium "Pendant" was nothing more than a flashlight designed to hypnotize Titan's opponents. Jaden also pointed out that the Millenium Item Titan had is actually called the Millenium "Puzzle", not the Millenium "Pendant". Titan tries to leave as Jaden had exposed him, but as Jaden chases after him, the snake statues start glowing and the Eye of Udjat appears on the floor, this initiating a real Shadow Game, trapping both players into a purple and black orb. Titan then gets possessed by some grayish blobs, which are driven away by Winged Kuriboh who protects Jaden, as such the Duel continues.
Jaden then activates "Monster Reincarnation" to discard "Kishido Spirit" and add "Elemental HERO Sparkman" from his Graveyard to his hand. Jaden then Normal Summons "Sparkman" (1600/1400) in Defense Position.
Turn 9: Titan
Titan draws. During Titan's Standby Phase, he is forced to pay 500 LP to prevent his "Skull Archfiend" from destroying itself (Titan: 1900 → 1400 LP). "Skull Archfiend" attacks and destroys "Dark Catapulter". Titan then Sets a card and Normal Summons "Desrook Archfiend" (1100/1800) in Attack Position.
Turn 10: Jaden
Jaden draws "Spark Blaster". He switches "Sparkman" to Attack Position. Jaden then activates "Spark Blaster", equipping it to "Sparkman". Now during each of Jaden's Main Phases, he can change the battle position of one monster on the field. If this effect is used three times, "Spark Blaster" is destroyed. "Sparkman" attacks and destroys "Desrook Archfiend" (Titan: 1400 → 900 LP). Jaden then activates the effect of "Spark Blaster" to switch "Sparkman" to Defense Position. On Jaden's End Phase, Titan activates his face-down "Battle-Scarred". Now both players will be forced to pay the cost for Titan's "Skull Archfiend" as long as both "Skull Archfiend" and "Battle-Scarred" are face-up.
Turn 11: Titan
Titan draws. During Titan's Standby Phase, he is forced to pay 500 LP to prevent "Skull Archfiend" from destroying itself (Titan: 900 → 400 LP). Due to the effect of "Battle-Scarred", Jaden is forced to pay the same amount of LP Titan paid (Jaden: 600 → 100 LP). "Skull Archfiend" attacks and destroys "Sparkman". Titan Sets a card. He then activates "Double Spell" to discard "Archfiend's Oath" and activate "Emergency Provisions" from Jaden's Graveyard as his card, allowing Titan to send his Set card to the Graveyard and gain 1000 LP (Titan: 400 → 1400 LP). Titan intends to have the Maintenance cost of "Skull Archfiend" and the effect of "Battle-Scarred" force Jaden to pay the remainder of his LP.
Turn 12: Jaden
Jaden draws "Elemental HERO Bubbleman". Since "Bubbleman" is the only card in Jaden's hand, Jaden Special Summons "Bubbleman" (800/1200) in Attack Position. Since Jaden summoned "Bubbleman" while he had no other cards on his side of the field, its second effect activates, letting Jaden draw two cards ("Bubble Shuffle" and "Elemental HERO Bladedge"). Jaden then activates "Bubble Shuffle" to switch both "Bubbleman" and "Skull Archfiend" to Defense Position and Tribute "Bubbleman" to Special Summon an "Elemental HERO" monster from his hand.
Since Jaden activated a card that targets "Skull Archfiend", Titan activates the effect of "Skull Archfiend" to roll a die (summon a roulette). If the result is a one, three or six, "Bubble Shuffle" will be negated and destroyed. Titan gets a two (Indicated by the flame landing on a 2), so the effect of "Bubble Shuffle" continues, switching both "Bubbleman" and "Skull Archfiend" to Defense Position. After that, Jaden Tributes "Bubbleman" to Special Summon "Bladedge" (2600/1800) from his hand in Attack Position. "Bladedge" attacks and destroys "Skull Archfiend". "Bladedge" then inflicts piercing damage to Titan (Titan: 1400 → 0 LP).
Aftermath[]
Titan is swallowed by the shadow blobs. Jaden Yuki escapes the black and purple orb with help from Winged Kuriboh. Jaden, Syrus and Chumley get Alexis out of the coffin and outside the dorm.
Crowler arrives to see if Titan succeeded in scaring Jaden off, only to find nothing but Titan's Pandemonium card, leading Crowler to believe Titan lost and mumbling that he never should have paid him.
Alexis wakes up outside the Abandoned Dorm by Jaden, who gives her one of her cards and a picture of her brother. Since morning was coming, Jaden, Syrus and Chumley run back to the Slifer Red dorm with Jaden telling Alexis that if anyone asks, they were never at the Abandoned Dorm.
