"Yusei, did you hear what Lazar's up to now?" Crow asked while walking in with a paper.
"What's he doing? Wasn't it last week he asked us to duel against some kids to help spread the enjoyment of the game?" Yusei asked putting down the tools he was using on his runner.
"Lazar wants to remind everyone of how far New Domino City has come since Zero Reverse, so he's hosting a tournament for everyone in the city. The catch is you enter as a team with however many people you want." Crow said.
"Let me guess, team 5ds is entered?" Yusei said calmly.
"Yeah, but the thing is Lazar announced all six of us as competitors, that means you, me, Jack, Akiza, Leo, and Luna are all entered." Crow said before sighing, "Well we might as well have fun, besides the new decks people are coming up with are sure to be fun to play against."
"I'll give Luna and Leo a call, I just had a thought on how to make our teamwork even better." Yusei said grabbing the phone.

"Hello, Yusei? I take it your calling because of the tournament?" Luna said as Leo walked in looking through his deck.
"Yeah, I had a thought, could you two come over here? The tournament might just be a way to improve our teamwork." Yusei said.
"Sure thing, we'll be right over, should we call Akiza?" Luna asked.
"No, I'll give her a call, just bring your cards. See you soon." Yusei said hanging up.
"Leo, we're heading over to see Yusei, so let's go." Luna said grabbing her deck and duel board.
"Awesome, this tournament will really let me show how skilled I've become." Leo said as the twins walked out of their apartment.

"Akiza, are you free?" Yusei asked as Jack walked in.
"Yusei, yeah, they let us out early, with the graduation duels coming up everyone has no classes. My match is tomorrow." Akiza said.
"That's great Akiza, good luck. Since you're free could you stop by? I have an idea for the new tournament."Yusei said.
"Sure, I'm on my way." Akiza said.

"Yusei, what kind of idea do you have?" Jack asked.
"Simple, but I'll tell you when everyone gets here. In the meantime, grab your cards." Yusei said while grabbing his own deck.
Just then the doorbell rang.
"Hi Yusei." said Leo. "What's up?"
"Yeah, you said you had an idea for teamwork." Luna said.
"I'll explain when Akiza arrives." Yusei said when Akiza's runner turned the corner. "Speaking of which, there she is."
"Alright Yusei, what's this idea of yours?" Crow asked.
"Simple, we're a great team, but we don't know each others cards, so why not use them." Yusei said.
"What do you mean Yusei?" Leo said with a confused expression.
"Simple, this tournament is for fun, but we can trade decks in order to improve our knowledge of each others cards and work out more combinations." Yusei said while putting his deck on a table.
"Yusei, that actually sounds like a good idea, the only thing is how will we decide when we use which deck?" Akizaasked.
"Well, the first round is in three days, and I was thinking every round we swap decks. As for the order we can discuss that now." Yusei said.

"Lazar, I know this tournament was supposed to represent the improvement since Zero Reverse, but still having people choose the size of their teams, how do we know people won't just try to win with sheer numbers." Trudge said.
"Well, I thought of that, the tournament has an upper limit, teams can have no more than 10 members." Lazar said while picking up a paper, "I look forward to seeing how team 5ds does in the tournament, after all New Domino City owes everything to them.
"Yeah, those guys really represent what this city means." Trudge said.

"Well, you think that works for the first round?" Yusei asked.
"Yeah, so we use these decks and take down whoever our opponent is." Crow said.
"This will be fun, what do you think Luna?" Leo asked his sister.
"Well, I wish I could use my deck, but I think this one can work, we'll just have to do our best." Luna said looking over the cards in her hands.
"Well we should get some rest, we can meet up at the kaibadome." Jack said.
"Agreed, well this tournament is going to be fun. Jack, why don't you start?" Akiza asked.
"Sounds like a plan, I'll see you guys for the tournament." Jack said.
(Lazar is holding a tournament for everyone in New Domino City, and Yusei decided to have team 5ds swap decks to improve teamwork. Next chapter will feature the beginning of the tournament. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated. Any ideas for a tournament name are appreciated as well.)
