Strategy 88: [Video] The result of weeks
[Kaiba's in the woods, and obviously hasn't been sleeping or eating. His stare is bright and indicative that he's running pretty much solely on willpower at this point. But he's standing proud with his Duel Disk, a few cards in his hand. He throws one down on the Duel Disk plate]
Duel Disk, Demonstration Mode Active! Heavy Storm! [There's a shimmering in the air around him, and suddenly he looks like he's in the middle of a tornado. His hair and coat are whipping everywhere, and it looks like trees and rocks are being torn up around him. Kaiba doesn't seem concerned. After a few moments it dies down, and he removes the card only to put down another one. The air shimmers again, and the forest seems completely normal.]
Silver Fang, Attack! [And the wolf jumps forward. Only...it doesn't move so stiffly anymore. In fact, it's ears are a little longer, and it's panting, much like a jackal did a while ago. To anyone who's seen these holograms before, it looks much more refined. Kaiba smirks and pulls the card. The hologram disappears. Another card goes in the slot, and Kaiba's smirk fades. His free hand goes to touch his card locket for a moment.]
Bau the Black Dog Beast! [A big dog creature appears, snarling. Even then, it's crouching on its front legs eagerly, wagging its tail like a puppy. It barks once, and makes the trees shake. Kaiba sighs and pulls the card, and the hologram fades. He looks at it for a moment, then puts it aside along with Silver Fang.]
Still many to do. Domino won't know what hit it, especially if a new graphics processor can be fit in. Hn...or maybe it's time for a new prototype entirely.
[He reaches for the LP with a smirk. Oh yes, he knows it's on. It's for a reason, after all. There's a slight shake in his fingers, and the screen shakes with it, and the smirk drops. Then the LP cuts.]
