It was just another day at duel academy and professor Sparx the head of techniques and head of ra yellow was walking to the docks to meet up with the new transfer student. Sparx was a tall man with long spiked up golden hair and yellow martial arts attire. He had a yellow duel disk hanging off his arm and a frown on his face as he reached the loading and unloading area where the new student was arriving. The academy's boat drew up to the side of the docks and a gang plank fell down by the professor's feet.
A boy dressed in jeans and a black shirt and slifer red blazer stepped off the boat with an academy duel disk red model strapped to his arm. He was quite tall with black spiky hair and green eyes and a cheeky grin on his face. "Hi I'm Ryou banner I'm the new transfer student." He said whilst shuffling his deck. "Yes I'm professor Sparx head of ra yellow and I'm here to show you to your dorm. You'll be in slifer red for arriving in late in the school year."
"Okay professor show me the way."
"Not so fast you transferred in late because you passed the written portion of the entrance exam but according to my information you haven't done the practical exam yet."
"No I was told I was duelling with a proctor when I got here."
Professor Sparx raised his left arm which had his duel disk mounted on it. "Wrong slifer slacker all our proctors had more important things to do so you'll be duelling me." Ryou was surprised to say the least but stood up to the challenge leaping onto the docks and activating his duel disk and slotting his deck into the deck holder. "Bring it on professor."

Sparx started the duel off drawing five cards from his deck and one more for his draw phase. "I'm going to summon fire kraken (fire/aqua/4 stars/atk1600) in attack mode to start and then I'll play the field spell card molten destruction to increase the attack of all fire monsters by 500. And that's my turn."
Ryou watched as a massive lava pit appeared beneath them and from its fiery depths the horrible fire kraken raised itself from the. He nervously began his first turn wondering what he was going to do. He drew a card to start his draw phase and perked up when he saw what it was realising his instant advantage.
"I summon Kuribe (an aqua green Kuriboh/dark/fiend/effect/1 star/atk200) to the field in attack mode."
"That thing can't compete with my fire kraken even without molten destruction."
"That's where you're wrong, because any summon of kuribe is treated as a special summon which means I can sacrifice him to summon a stronger monster. Now I summon in attack mode my Olympian knight (earth/warrior/6 stars/atk2300)" Olympus knight stood before them broad shouldered with lots of armour and a huge shield and immense blade. "and that's not all in my hand I have one kuribu(white Kuriboh/ dark/fiend/effect/1 star/atk200) which I can send from my hand to the graveyard to negate one spell card and destroy it and I'm using it on your molten destruction."
Molten destruction vanished from the field and fire krakens attack went down to 1600. "Now Olympian knight attack with heavenly sword swing." The warrior raised his sword slicing the kraken in half with one mighty swing. "And I'll end my turn by laying one card face down."

"Alright slifer boy now I'll take you seriously." He drew a card and added it to his hand. "I think I'll start by using pot of greed to draw two more cards. Now I'll use polymerization to summon the flame swordsman (fire/warrior/fusion/5 stars/atk1800) and now I'll play de-fusion to send my flame swordsman back and summon its fusion material monsters. But they won't be around for long because I'll be sacrificing them both to summon my red eyes black dragon (dark/dragon/7 stars/atk2400) from my hand." The mighty black dragon rose up beside Sparx flames escaping from in between its teeth and floating suspended in the air by its immense black wings. "Now attack with inferno fire blast!"
The dragon opened its jaws and released a massive black fireball at the Olympian knight. Ryou raised his hand and activated his face down card. "I activate my face down card Metalmorph to raise my knights attack power by 300 points." The knight repelled the fireball with his shield and leapt at the dragon slicing it open with one blow.
"Very good slifer boy now begin your turn."

Ryou drew another card not sure what to expect from the professor. "I start by summoning Kuriboh from my hand and then I'll lay one card face down to end my main phase. As for now I'll attack directly with my two monsters."

"Good move now I'll begin my turn." Sparx drew a single card to begin what was surely his last move. "I'll lay a single card face down and end my turn."
Ryou drew a card and added it to his hand. "Alright I'll attack with my Kuriboh and finish you off."
Sparx activated his face down card. "I activate mirror force!" kuribohs attack rebounded and destroyed all of Ryou's monsters. "There it'll take you time to come back after that which will give me time to summon a new monster."
"Actually I was prepared for this I activate my face down trap. Call of the haunted to revive my Kuriboh which I'll then use to attack you directly." The Kuriboh leapt at Sparx swatting at him with its green claws.

"Very good you'll go far in this academy. The exam for promotion in is three weeks you should go straight to ra yellow quickly."
"Thanks professor."
"That's alright just follow me to the slifer red dorm."
The slifer dorm was on the other side of the island near the cliffs. In the last few years of the academy the dorm had been expanded upon since the days of Jaden Yuki. The rooms were still very small but the dorm had been turned into more of a courtyard with a garden in the centre. But the thing that drew the most attention from Ryou was the massive stone statue that took pride of place in the centre of the garden. It depicted Jaden Yuki surrounded by a black replica of the sky dragon of Osiris (slifer the sky dragon) and backed by his top cards elemental heroes terra firma and neos as well as winged Kuriboh. "This is pretty cool I wonder what the other dorms have."
"You'll see when you're promoted now wait here and your dorm head should come to give you your time table and room key."
"Great so who's in charge of slifer?"
"That would be professor Princeton."
