Kaiba plays The Melody of Awakening Dragon

"It's the Melody of Awakening Dragon!"

"To activate it, I send Kidmodo Dragon to the graveyard. Now, I can add two Blue-Eyes White Dragons back into my hand!" Kaiba sneered, searching the cards back out of his deck as if he knew exactly where to look for them. "I create my own fate with superior dueling strategy. Real 'fate' is a strategy so flawless that it doesn't provide a single opening." His boasting was finally complete, but Ishizu could count the cards in his hand... even if he'd drawn two Blue-Eyes, there was no way he had enough left to summon them. "That dazed look in your eye tells me you're perplexed about my good mood. Allow me to enlighten you. I activate Kidmodo Dragon's effect from the graveyard! With this, I can special summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon to the field! But that's not all: remember, Kidmodo Dragon only allows me to special summon a monster that was already in my hand when I discarded. That's right! Three Blue-Eyes have returned to me! Ah ha ha ha ha!"

Of course, that wasn't the real reason that Ishizu looked dazed. Once again, her consciousness faded, and once again, she did somebody's (perhaps a certain sorcerer's) parody of an Egyptian dance. Ishizu put each arm out to the side, then began to move them like snakes, up and down in a sinusoidal pattern. She rocked her hourglass hips and belly to the lingering music of the Melody of Awakening Dragon, which only she could hear. The gems lining her upper bikini bra clinked against one another and slapped lightly against her flesh as she gyrated her upper body as well. Only her feet remained mostly rooted in place. Her eyes were clouded over, without light, as if she couldn't see or comprehend anything. "Sorcery... leave..." she managed weakly, unaware of what she was doing, but knowing that whatever it was, it was not by her bidding.

Flipping her skirt a few times in Kaiba's direction, she slowly turned, flip by flip, so that her back was facing him. Then, raising her arms above her head, she made a spiraling motion with her hips, sliding the remainder of her skirt first with resistance down the wide curve of her buttocks, before easily navigating it down her slender legs. As it lay in a pool around her, she stepped her heeled sandals out from the pile, then kicked it away. She would never know what its trajectory had been, but even if she did, she'd probably find some magic had made it vanish, if she'd gone to look.

When she finally recovered her senses and looked down, she'd find no trace of her dress left. Her ankles were ringed by golden coils, her feet covered by ornate sandals, but her lower body was covered only by a scant, gold bikini, matching the top she'd seen earlier. The hips were adorned by more jingling gem beads. Although the piece looked like metal, she could feel that the back piece was only leather, running between the cheeks and secured to the gold by tiny metal pieces. The leather was firm, but it was almost as if it had been designed to be detached or opened off by the puzzle-like mechanisms inside the garment. The thought made her feel even hotter... If things kept going this way, her vision would come true after all.

Her head snapped up as she heard Kaiba clicking his fingers in irritation, trying to awaken her from her trance. "You're wasting my time!" he complained impatiently.

The girl felt foolish; even knowing the danger of magic she was under, she had to admit, there was a part of her that was more worried of being exposed to him like this. Ishizu didn't follow any outdated rules of "a priestess' purity" or anything of that sort, but still, she was a very private person. The world at large knew very little of her, outside of her presence at the Battle City tournament, and even then she'd been largely overshadowed by Kaiba. She'd lived away from society and withdrawn back from it when her work was done. All of this was to say: she didn't have a lot of experience with people and had even less experience exposing herself in front of them. For a serious person like herself, it was a mixture of shock and bewilderment that threatened to shake off a lifetime of discipline.

Her eyes widened further as she again comprehended her situation: Blue-Eyes White Dragon had returned. Just one this time, but one was enough. Still... this could work. It didn't matter if Blue-Eyes White Dragon attacked. Once Luster Dragon #2 attacked, Kaiba's monsters would all be wiped out.
