Hey this is something else I have came up with. I had a deck that fits like the main character's, and this is where that the Water Ignis, Aqua was rescued by the main character in Earth's place. Here's the main character:

Name: Diego Rivera

VRAINS Nickname: Gunslinger

Age: 12

Gender: Male

Skill: Waters of Life

Ace Monster(s): Borreload Dragon, Borrelsword Dragon, Borrelguard Dragon, Starving Venom Fusion Dragon, Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon

Personality: A carefree boy who is often distant to others he helps his family in their family restaurant Amigo Taco Rivera. He long dreams to be a great duelist but does have trouble with his strategies along with the work in the restaurant. He does get nervous around crowds, and can be easily intimidated at the sight of wars. He is not fond of Roller Coasters as he isn't great at Speed Duels as it reminds him of them, but while with Aqua she helps him with confidence, and bravery. He also has honor wishing to finish duels from start to finish, and proudly takes the outcomes like a good lad. When his friends are in danger he does whatever he can to protect, and care for them often inviting them to Amigo Taco Rivera so they can know they are under his watch. He also has a habit of saying things in Spanish as his family comes from Mexico often saying 'amigo'.

Appearance: In real life Diego is just a short tanned young man who has smooth black hair that covers his right eye that he sways. His eyes are a deep green which people can see easily, and often remarks he is a special kid. His attire is simple for a white tank-top while having a bead necklace around his neck. The beads are blue, and red as they are his favorite colors. Along with the tanktop is his green cotton jacket that has Amigo Taco Rivera's logo on it along with his name in cursive writing. He doesn't zip it up though in bad weather conditions he does zip it up. Along with his attire is a pair of black jeans where it has pockets for easy access to anything he wants to store. He also has on a green backpack that can carry his school work, and along with having good reports. To finish it he also wears blue NIKE Sneakers that he can run fast.

In LINK VRAINS his Avatar Form, Gunslinger, looks different in comparison to his own form. Armed with some gun holsters that holds pistols that looks like Magarokket, and Autorokket Dragons he looks like a Cowboy Bounty Hunter that often resembles his name, and origins. Wearing red leather boots with gold buttons on them, with blue jeans that he remarks as a good fit to his character. For the torso area he wears a soft green long-sleeved shirt that is red vertical striped with a left breast pocket that he stores some programs. Along with it is a blue green vest that he added as a way to make his character look 'cool'. He is also wearing a red bandana that is wrapped around his neck, or he wears it on his face on some occasions. He has orange eyes, and has blonde hair that is mostly covered by a brown cowbay fedora that has his VRAINS Name on it in cursive. Along with them are a pair of Sunglasses that he uses as another way to make him look 'cool'.

Deck:

Diego runs a "rokket" Deck just like the Knights of Hanoi's Leader, Varis, though he uses the "rokket" archetype more fluently. It mainly focuses over destruction poking holes in his opponent's plans when targeted by Link Monster effects, and he uses them often with his Link Monsters. He also has means of Draw Power using the spell "Supply Squad" to draw 1 card for when a monster he controls is destroyed either by battle or by effect only once per turn, and along with using cards to effectively draw most noticeably "Reckless Greed", "Borrel Regenerator", and "Vorticular Drumgon". To replenish his "rokket" monsters he uses cards that can restock such as "Jar of Avarice", and a combo of both "Link Turret", along with "Necroface" as "Link Turret" banishes the "rokkets" it summons from the graveyard while "Necroface" shuffles all banished cards to the decks when Normal Summoned.

For offense he uses his monsters to effectively poke holes in his opponent's plans mostly from his top 2 "rokket" monsters: "Magnarokket Dragon", and "Autorokket Dragon" to send Monsters, Spells, and Traps to the graveyard when targeted by a Link Monster's effect. The use of them also removes cards that can prevent destruction without using a cost as per example since they'll be sent to the graveyard without being destroyed it will get them crippled without almost no time to recover. He also uses the Spell "Flash Fusion" to Fusion Summon "Starving Venom Fusion Dragon" on any turn with just two of his DARK Dragons to gain great attack power, and prepare for large strikes.

The destruction effect of "Starving Venom" also serves as a purpose for destroying all of his opponent's Special Summoned monsters while Diego keeps himself protected. As he uses Dragons he utilizes "Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon" to give it great attack power, and make it near unstoppable. "Booster Dragon" serves as the main Link Monster for his "rokket" monsters as a less threatening way as it can use it's effect only one time every turn he has. Whenever it's destroyed he can call it back with some effort. Along with them are his LINK-4 "Borrel" Monsters ("Borreload Dragon", "Borrelsword Dragon", and "Borrelguard Dragon") serves as the main attack forces due to their effects to use on the "rokket" monsters, and his opponent's monsters to stop their attacks, or making them weaker then their own.

For defense he uses cards to stop his opponent's attacks with cards like "Mirror Force", and "Negate Attack" to guard himself. He also uses "Mirror Force Launcher" to regain "Mirror Force" whenever he needs it. He also uses the effects of the "Borrel" Link Monsters to switch his opponent's monsters to defense position, or lower their ATK/DEF along with using the "rokket" monsters with them to poke holes into the opponent's battling plans. He also uses the trap "Borrel Cooling" to protect his monsters from destruction only one time for turn which also serves as a offensive purpose as it is treated as a Link Monster's effect.

From Aqua his Speed Duel Skill is called Waters of Life which allows him to summon any monster from his Extra Deck ignoring conditions, and regain Life Points equal to half the ATK of that monster though it can't attack or use it's effects during the turn it's summoned whenever his Life Points are less then 1500.

Hope you guys like him, and hope you don't think he's too powerful. The cards he has are the same as my rokket Deck. Oh, and this is after Season 1 of VRAINS so this takes place after Yusaku defeats Ryoken a second time. ENJOY!


"Muchas gracias señor y señorita. See you again at Amigo Taco Rivera!" A woman smiled at a couple who nodded paying her, and leaving the restaurant known as Amigo Taco Rivera which is Spanish.

This restaurant is a popular family restaurant well-owned, and managed in Den City by a Spanish-American Family known as the Riveras. A Mexican place for the people it is well liked, and well-funded by the family who serves great grub, and has good manners for their staff. The chefs cook great meals that fits the Mexican Spirit mostly Tacos, and Burritos. The waiters are kind, and are well mannered for their customers, along with having nice, and clean environments. The managers who are the founders are in charge of the place, and as the family grew so does the business. Not only is Amigo Taco Rivera a restaurant it is also the home for the people who managed the place.

The woman who bid farewell for the couple was known as Rosa Rivera, a beautiful young woman who is the granddaughter of the founders of the restaurant along with being the main Waiter who greets everyone kindly, and shows them great things. From her parents who were taught by her grandparents she learned how to manage Amigo Taco Rivera, and then after she taught her husband, later her kids, and then they taught her family.

"Rosa it's almost closing a time." An elderly man told her walking over. That man is her father Desván Rivera who is the son of the founders of Amigo Taco Rivera along with his sister. They were both taught to manage the place at a young age from their parents, and they loved working for them. Not only that he is also one of the chefs of the place with his older sister.

"Okay, Papá." Rosa smiled to her father as she looked over the layout seeing a few people.

2 of them are little kids that are a boy, and a girl that are named Coco, and Miguel that are her younger twin kids. They have been given the task as small waiters from to help their customers, and among them was a man known as Berto Rivera who is her husband who is the janitor which he didn't mind much. With his relatives they are taught to manage Amigo Taco Rivera like his wife. It was hard to mange at first but they managed to get through, and help each other out.

"Coco, Miguel, Berto it's almost quitting time!" Rosa told the three.

"Okay!" The three respond with smiles as they begin to tidy up.

The Riveras are a big family, and the founders of Amigo Taco Rivera had managed to place ever since they were young people. From their childhood in Mexico they have dreamed of making a successful family restaurant that is both American, and Mexican themed. Eventually from their hard times learning to manage, and making money from their daily routines they came up with enough money to open Amigo Taco Rivera. As the business grows so does the Rivera family. It rivaled all the other eating places in Deny City, and because the top eat out joint in the industry.

Then Rosa looked around, and frowned, "Where's Diego?"

"Where do you think he is Rosa?" Berto smiled to her with a knowing grin.


"...And then right after Magnarokket Dragon sent Thunder Dragon Titan to the graveyard I managed to finish him with Borreload Dragon!"

Of course all family's have special members that don't think too much of the legacy, and this young man, Diego, is that person. A young 12 year old boy who is a distant kid that acts as one of the chefs in Amigo Taco Rivera is also a Duelist in a location known as LINK VRAINS was talking to his great-grandparents that are the founders of Amigo Taco Rivera about his recent victory against a Duelist who uses the Thunder Dragon archetype which are mostly Fusion.

The main reason of his success is by being tough, and fast while it gets him a few difficult spots but he manages to recover from it. The effect of Magnarokket Dragon to send Thunder Dragon Titan to the graveyard is one of the main reasons. Normally when Thunder Dragon Titan would be destroyed the user can banish two cards from their graveyard to protect it. But Magnarokket Dragon's effects just SENDS the target not DESTROY them which made it defenseless to it's effect.

Diego has big dreams to become a great Duelist to be recognized in the Dueling World just like that his Family were recognized the Fast Food World. His Deck which are the rokkets are to show that he is strong, and always stay supported from his family. From his origins, and Deck he had named himself 'Gunslinger' in LINK VRAINS, and made his avatar a Cowboy like Bounty Hunter. He is no Bounty Hunter no. He is just a Duelist who loves to have fun, and does everything he can to be recognized as a great Duelist. His duties in Amigo Taco Rivera do get in the way sometimes but he always have free time during the days that happens.

"That's great, niho, you always make us proud with your progress in LINK VRAINS but remember. You always need a strategy before charging in." His Great-Grandmother named Victoria told him softly, "Strategies are always the key to victory."

"Si, Diego. It's important you have a plan." His Great-Grandfather Julio agreed. "If you don't then your done."

Diego sheepishly rubbed his head admitting, "Sorry, Papá Julio, Mamá Victoria... I always do that."

"That's okay, Diego." Julio smiled to him. "You can always learn from your mistakes."

"Along with the support we, and your Familia give you." Victoria smiled to him agreeing.

Diego smiled at this growing more supportive from the love his Great-Grandparents give him. That was before they heard, "Diego?"

They turned to see Rosa walking in with Desván as she smiled, "You been talking to them about LINK VRAINS again?"

"Yes Mamá." Diego smiled nodding.

Desván said, "Well I'm sure they are proud of you, niho, but you have things here to do in Amigo Taco Rivera. It's nearly closing time. Help your brother, sister, and Papá with the cleaning."

"Okay Papá Desván." Diego nodded before giving soft kisses on his Great-Grandparents, "Gracias for listening Papá Julio, Mamá Victoria."

He ran off to join Miguel, Coco, and Berto with the works.


A few hours later...

Diego was walking outside looking up at Den City with a smile. He sees great Duelists but he mostly looks up to the Hero of LINK VRAINS.

A mysterious duelist known as Playmaker.

Nobody knew where, and why Playmaker was in LINK VRAINS but he is an incredible Duelist, and a great strategist with an AI unlike any other. He had battled vicious opponents, Charisma Duelists known as The Gore, and Blue Angel, and defeated a group of hackers known as the Knights of Hanoi. He had done so much, and then was suddenly treated as a Criminal. He doesn't know why but he figures it was only a misunderstanding.

Diego has long dreamed of one day dueling Playmaker himself in a Battle of the Titans. He hopes that one day that can be possible. For now he is a Duelist stuck at the bottom-ranks, and a Chef at the famous Mexican restaurant Amigo Taco Rivera. Otherside from that he is also friends with a rival group, a food truck owner known as Café Nom which serves Coffee, and Hot Dogs. A basic Food Truck but have great things. The owner, and Diego are great friends.

He arrived at said Food Truck where a man with blue hair, and a goatee sees him as he smiled, "Ah Diego. The usual?"

"Si, mi amigo." Diego nodded smiling, "Business doing good as usual?"

"Yeah same old, same old Diego." The man answered preparing a dish. "Your family doing okay?"

"Their doing fine, Kolter." Diego answered sitting down. "As usual. The work day starts, I cook Tamales, Quesadillas, and Fajitas, I do some cleaning near end of shift, and then get to LINK VRAINS after grabbing some after dinner snack."

"Ah your normal routine every time." Kolter smiled placing a bag on the stack as Diego walked over paying him. "Well visits from you are always one thing frequent. I just wished your family can come over."

"They just don't feel comfortable being here." Diego told him. "Gracias Kolter."

"No problem." Kolter smiled. "Good luck in VRAINS."

Diego smiled nodding before walking off enjoying the Hot Dog he ordered. He arrived back after throwing the bag away as Berto smiled, "Welcome back, miho, about to head to LINK VRAINS?"

"Si, Papá." Diego smiled to him, "I will duel Playmaker one day."

"Well you need to get stronger." Berto smiled to him. "Good luck, niho, and remember to be back before bed."

Diego nodded as he ran up the stairs, and arrived at his room where a chair was at as he sat down, and placed a helmet on him calling, "Into the VRAINS!"

At that the machine glowed as he was loaded into some cybernetic portal.


Now entering Link VRAINS...

Diego soon is transforming. He transformed into his Avatar. The Character known as Gunslinger.

He entered the space which he looked around seeing a Ranch.

"Perfect for the Cowboy." Gunslinger smiled looking around, "Now lets see what opponent's are here for today."

A virutal horse appeared as he hopped on, and ride it unaware that something blue was watching him.


Meanwhile...

A man known as Kengo Dojun was looking over reports. A vile young man who lost his mother in a driving accident when the AI in the car malfunctioned. He became a Bounty Hunter to make a Living, and has been hunting down Playmaker for a while but when he tracked him he was defeated before he can defeat him.

That was before he got a call.

"Yes?" Kengo asked as a holographic image of a man appeared.

"Blood Shepherd. Our scanners detected an Ignis in the hands of a Young Man in the Ranch section of LINK VRAINS." The man told him.

"A young man in the Ranch?" Kengo asked interested. "What's the mark?"

"He goes by the name 'Gunslinger'." The man answered.

"Okay. I'll take it from here." Kengo nodded before exiting out, and walking to a Pod to go to LINK VRAINS.


Meanwhile...

Gunslinger continued riding the horse looking around. "Huh no opponent's? Did I pick a bad time or something?"

Usually there was an opponent waiting when he visits LINK VRAINS. But it doesn't seem their are any at the moment so maybe something happened? He shrugged continuing to ride the horse as he was unaware something entered his Duel Disk. He continued on looking around before he sees something. "Huh?"

Then something passed him fast startling him as he cried, "Whoa, Que!?"

Whoever it was turned around as it sped beside him as Gunslinger sees it was a gray skinned, and purple cloaked being with a mechanical arm.

"You there. You are in possession of the Ignis." The man told him calmly.

"An Ignis?" Gunslinger asked him surprised. "Sorry señor but you have the wrong guy. I don't have an-"

"Then what's that?" The man questioned eyeing Gunslinger's Duel Disk.

Gunslinger looked, and a surprised expression crosses his face as what raise from the Duel Disk was a sky blue digital being with glowing eyes who said sheepishly, "Uh hi..."

"How did you get in my Duel Disk?" Gunslinger asked her.

"I'm so sorry! I was trying to get away from attention!" The being told him bowing apologetically.

"Well you founded a new source of attention." The man told her. "Both you, and your comrade will surrender, and head back to SOL Technologies."

Gunslinger hearing that only grinned, "Listen señorita. It ain't your fault."

"señorita?" The being asked blinking.

"It's Spanish for 'Miss'. This guy looks pretty tough." Gunslinger grinned. "And I want to protect my friends, and your already one."

The being looked surprised hearing that as the man thought, 'He's not surrendering... Very well.'

"The name is Gunslinger. And you are?" Gunslinger asked the man.

"Blood Shepherd." The man answered revealing his LINK VRAINS identity.

"Well, Blood Shepherd, you look like a pretty tough guy, and I was looking for a match. So why not we do it?" Gunslinger grinned.

Blood Shepherd responded, "You fool challenging a Bounty Hunter to a duel. But with you holding an Ignis I accept."

Blood Shepherd flew as the Speed Duel Layout appeared as Gunslinger frowned at this as he pulled his Bandana to cover his mouth, 'Speed Duel...'

With that they got ready.

"SPEED DUEL!"

"Gunslinger had summoned a Link 2 monster." Blood Shepherd's AI told him. "It poses no threat as we only take 1300 points of damage."

"With this I can bring back a monster from the graveyard that Booster Dragon points at! I summon Metalrokket Dragon!" Gunslinger called as Metalrokket appeared.

"What are you up to?" Blood Shepherd asked him.

Gunslinger grinned, "You see Blood Shepherd, Booster Dragon allows me to raise a monster's attack, and defense points by 500, and you can't play anything against this effect!"

"Still poses no threat. We will only take 2900 points of damage." Blood Shepherd's AI said.

"2900?" Gunslinger asked. "It should be more then that."

"When Drone Pawn is the only monster on my field it can't be destroyed in battle. And during the end of the battle phase I regain Life Points equal to the damage I take." Blood Shepherd explained.

"While I control a Done, I can use this to target your Booster Dragon. That monster can't attack, and it has its effects negated." Blood Shepherd told him surprising them both.

"Que?" Gunslinger asked shocked as chains wrapped around Booster Dragon.

"Your monster can't be used for a Link Summon, and can't be tributed either!" Blood Shepherd added.

Gunslinger grunted, 'Great so much for Metalrokket's ability...'

"Okay your monster can't be destroyed which would make it's attack useless. I place 1 card down, and end my turn." Gunslinger ended.

The being asked him, "That card sounds tough."

"Yeah but so am I." Gunslinger said with a grin.

The pawn attacked Gunslinger who took cover. (Gunslinger: 3400)

"And now as Drone attacked directly I can tribute it to deal you damage equal to it's attack points!" Blood Shepherd continued as the Drone shattered as the blast hit Gunslinger. (Gunslinger: 2800)

'And with that he'll have to attack Booster Dragon both freeing him from Capture Drone, and allowing me to summon a dragon from the graveyard.'

"Hmup I expected you had yourself protected. I end my turn." Blood Shepherd ended.

'He's not attacking Booster Dragon?' Gunslinger thought shocked before shaking his head, "Metalrokket Dragon's ability activates! During the end of a turn when destroyed I can summon a different rokket from my deck! Come Magnarokket Dragon!"

"Gunslinger this will be the two turns you have left." Blood Shepherd said holding two fingers.

Gunslinger 2nd Turn:

"Maldita sea... He didn't attack Booster Dragon." Gunslinger muttered to himself.

"Well it might be because he want Capture Drone to stay on the field so he can continue summoning those Tokens." The being suggested.

Gunslinger looked shocked hearing that before grunting, and drew building his hand to four.

"And that's one!" Blood Shepherd called.

"Okay I activate the field spell, Boot Sector Launch!" Gunslinger called.

"Now when it's summoned Sniffer Dragon allows me to another copy to my hand!" Gunslinger added getting the card. "And now appear the Circuit of the West!"

The Circuit appeared.

"The summoning conditions are at least 2 non-Token monsters! I set Magnarokket Dragon, Gateway Dragon, and Sniffer Dragon in the Link Markers!"

The three dragons flew up to where it connected to the Bottom, Left and Up arrows.

"Circuit combined! Link Summon! Appear Link 3, Triple Burst Dragon!" Gunslinger called.

A three turret like dragon appeared.

During your Main Phase, except the turn this card was Special Summoned: You can Tribute this card, then target 1 Link-2 or lower monster in your GY; Special Summon it, then you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Dragon monster from your hand.


"Triple Burst isn't the target for Capture Drone so he can attack, and he has his abilities!" Gunslinger smirked. "Cerrar but not Cerrar enough!"

"Indeed." Blood Shepherd agreed before revealing, "However due to Capture Drone's effect Link Monsters can't attack."

"Are you serious!?" Gunslinger asked irritated.

The being looked over before she got an idea. "Hm... That's it!"

Turning to Gunslinger she said, "Hey listen I got an idea but you need to trust me!"

"Hm? Of course I trust you señorita what?" Gunslinger smiled to her as she nodded.

"Okay ride to this!" She concentrated before a data wave appeared as a box appeared as Gunslinger looked.

"Is this... A Skill?" Gunslinger asked surprised before looking determined riding over.

"What is he doing?" Blood Shepherd asked confused.

Gunslinger entered the Data Wave, and cried out, "I activate my Skill! Waters of Life! When I have less then 1500 Life Points I can summon a monster from my Extra Deck ignoring conditions, and gain Life points equal to half the attack points of that monster! However it can't attack, or use it's effects for this turn!"


Waters of Life

Gunslinger's Skill

If the user has less then 1500 Life Points they can Special Summons 1 monster from their Extra Deck, and if they do they regain Life Points equal to half the ATK of that monster. The monster summoned by this effect can't attack, and cannot use it's effect(s) the turn it's summoned by this effect.


"What?" Blood Shepherd asked surprised.

At the start of the Damage Step, if this card attacks an opponent's monster: You can place that opponent's monster in a zone this card points to and take control of it, but send it to the GY during the End Phase of the next turn.


"Thanks to Waters of Life I regain 1500 points!" Gunslinger cried as he, and Borreload exited the Data Wave. (Gunslinger: 2700)

"It's pointless to do what you do." Blood Shepherd said. "As long as Capture Drone is on the field your Link Monsters can't attack."

"Oh I know that." Gunslinger grinned confusing Blood Shepherd. "I place 1 card down, and end my turn!"

The being said, "I hope you know what your doing."


Gunslinger: 2700

Blood Shepherd: 4000


Blood Shepherd 3rd Turn:

"My turn. Draw!" Blood Shepherd drew. "And now I use Capture Drone's effect to summon 2 Drone Tokens!"

The two drones appeared.

"Come out the Circuit that leads to victory!" Blood Shepherd added.

The circuit appeared.

"The summoning conditions is 1 Drone Monster!" Blood Shepherd called. "I set Drone Token in the Link Marker!"

The drone entered the Bottom Link Arrow.

"Circuit Combined! Link Summon! Appear Link 1, Battledrone Sergeant!"

A white plane appeared in place.

"Another Sergeant?" Gunslinger asked surprised.

"And now I activate General's ability to summon Drone Pawn!" Blood Shepherd added. "This is the turn of your defeat! Drone Pawn attacks directly!"

The pawn attacked. (Gunslinger: 2100)

"General's effect! You take damage equal to half the attack of the monster that attacked!" Blood Shepherd called as the monster shattered hitting Gunslinger. (Gunslinger: 1500)

"And Battledrone Sergenat attacks directly!" Blood Shepherd called as the plane attacked hitting Gunslinger. (Gunslinger: 0700)

"Oh no! If Sergeant's attack points hit us were doomed!" The being cried worried.

"General's effect!" Blood Shepherd called as the monster glowed.

Gunslinger grinned, "Borreload Dragon's effect! Anti-Enemy Varret!"

Borreload roared at Sergeant. (ATK: 800 - 500 = 300)

"What?" Blood Shepherd asked surprised.

As the blast hit Gunslinger grinned, "Sorry amigo but Borreload lowers your monster's attack points by 500 once a turn." (Gunslinger: 0400)

"Oh that was close." The being sighed in relief.

"Don't think it's over yet." Blood Shepherd told them. "I activate my Skill! Drone Craft Force!"


Drone Craft Force

Blood Shepherd's Skill

One opponent's monster loses 200 ATK for every "Drone" card in the user's GY, until the end of the turn, and 1 monster you control gain ATK equal to the same amount.


"With this skill one monster you have loses 200 attack points for every Drone card in my graveyard!" Blood Shepherd called.

"Wait how many is that?" Gunslinger asked looking to see.

Drone Pawn, Battledrone Sergeant, Duplicate Drone, and Battledrone Sergeant.

"I target Triple Burst Dragon!" Blood Shepherd called as Triple Burst got weaker. (ATK: 2400 - (200 * 4) = 1600) "And the same amount is added to General's attack points!"

The general glowed. (ATK: 2400 + (200 * 4) = 3200)

"Now General attack Triple Burst Dragon!" Blood Shepherd called as the General charged at the dragon.

Gunslinger called, "No tan rapido, amigo! I play my face-down! Flash Fusion!"


Flash Fusion

Quick-Play Spell Card

Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters you control as Fusion Materials. Destroy it during the End Phase.


"What?" Blood Shepherd asked surprised.

"With this I can Fusion Summon a monster using monsters on my field! I fusion Triple Burst Dragon with Booster Dragon!" Gunslinger called as they fused.

"Dragon of the three Turrents! Dragon that boosts the bullets! Join together, and breed to a new dragon! Fusion Summon! Appear level 8, Starving Venom Fusion Dragon!"

At that a dragon that looks like has vines growing on it appeared roaring.


Starving Venom Fusion Dragon

2 DARK monsters on the field, except Tokens

Once per turn: You can target 1 Level 5 or higher monster your opponent controls; until the end of this turn, this card's name becomes that monster's original name, and replace this effect with that monster's original effects. If this Fusion Summoned card is destroyed: You can destroy all your opponent's Special Summoned monsters.


"Capture Drone's target left the field so it's destroyed." Blood Shepherd said as the trap card shattered. "I activate my face-down, Drone Cordon!"


Drone Cordon

Continuous Trap Card

Activate this card only if you control a "Drone" Link Monster. Your opponent cannot target "Drone" monsters you control with card effects, also your opponent's Link Monsters cannot attack.


"You can't target my drones with card effects also your Link Monsters can't attack!" Blood Shepherd called. "With this your done. General is strong enough to destroy Starving Venom, and win this duel."

Gunslinger started chuckling confusing them both, "Don't think it's that easy amigo! Starving Venom's ability! When Fusion Summoned it gains the attack points of one Special Summoned monster on your field!"

"Drone Cordon prevents you from targeting my Drones with your effects!" Blood Shepherd reminded.

Gunslinger grinned, "That's the cherry on top... This doesn't target!"

"Doesn't target?" Blood Shepherd asked surprised.

Starving Venom Fusion Dragon: (ATK: 2800 + 3200 = 6000)

"Your dragon has higher attack then General! And Borreload's attack points aren't low enough for Blood Shepherd to claim the win!" The being called.

Blood Shepherd looked at his hand seeing they are Drone Demolition, and Mirror Coat Unit. Drone Demolition halves the damage of battle when he tributes a Drone, and Mirror Coat Unit defends a Drone from destruction, and makes it zero once it's destroyed when the Drone would be destroyed.

Blood Shepherd told Gunslinger, "Your the second to have ever escape my count during a duel. You should feel proud. Now General attack Borreload Dragon!"

The general attacked as Borreload roared shattering. (Gunslinger: 0200)

Gunslinger frowned sadly, as he said "Gracias por tu ayuda, amigo."

"I end my turn." Blood Shepherd ended. "Which means Flash Fusion destroys your monster."

Starving Venom shattered before Battledrone General, and the Drone Token followed.

"What?" Blood Shepherd asked shocked.

Gunslinger explained, "When Starving Venom is destroyed when Fusion Summoned all your Special Summoned monsters goes with him!"

Gunslinger 3rd Turn:

Gunslinger drew, "Draw!"

The being said nervously, "We only have 200 Life Points, and no cards on the field. Blood Shepherd is undamaged with only Drone Cordon. With Link Monsters not allowed to attack we might not win this."

Gunslinger grinned, "Don't worry, amigo, I had just drawn our victory."

The being turned to him confused.

Gunslinger called, "I activate the spell card, Allure of Darkness!"


Allure of Darkness

Normal Spell Card

Draw 2 cards, then banish 1 DARK monster from your hand, or, if you do not have any in your hand, send your entire hand to the GY.


"With this I can draw two cards after banishing a Dark Attribute monster in my hand!" Gunslinger called drawing twice, and banishing the Sniffer Dragon he added from earlier. "And now I activate the spell I drew! Borrel Regenerator!"


Borrel Regenerator

Equip Spell Card

Activate this card by targeting 1 "Rokket" monster in your GY; Special Summon it and equip it with this card, but banish it when this card leaves the field. If this card is sent to the GY because the equipped monster is destroyed: You can draw 1 card. You can only use each effect of "Borrel Regenerator" once per turn.


"And with it I summon Metalrokket from the graveyard!" Gunslinger called as Metalrokket appeared. "And now I summon Magnarokket Dragon from my hand!"

The blue bullet dragon appeared.

"Due to Boot Sector Launch's effect they gain 300 attack, and defense points!" Gunslinger called.

Magnarokket Dragon: (ATK: 1800 + 300 = 2100/DEF: 1200 + 300 = 1500)

Metalrokket Dragon: (ATK: 1700 + 300 = 2000/DEF: 1400 + 300 = 1700)

"They both have over 2000 attack points?" Blood Shepherd asked shocked seeing he's gonna lose.

"Both Metalrokket, and Magnarokket Dragons aren't Link Monsters so Drone Cordon can't effect them!" Gunslinger called. "Battle! Metalrokket, and Magnarokket attacks directly!"

The two bullets charged as Blood Shepherd took the blows. "...I lost against another AI ally?"


Gunslinger: 0200

Blood Shepherd: 0000

Gunslinger wins the duel!


"And that's how it's done, amigo!" Gunslinger grinned at Blood Shepherd.

The being looked on amazed, "Amazing... You are a really skilled duelist..."

Gunslinger blushed as he lowered his bandana, "Hey come on I'm not that skilled."

Blood Shepherd told him, "You, and her earned your freedom for now... But next time we meet you will lose."

With that he flew off as Gunslinger, and the being watched him. Gunslinger looked at the clock, and sees it is 10:51. "Santo cielo! It's nearly time for bed!"

The being asked surprised, "Time for bed?"

Gunslinger answered, "Listen señorita thanks for the help but I need to go. Meet me here tomorrow, and we can talk then."

With that he logged out of LINK VRAINS.


Outside...

Diego exited out of the chair letting out a sigh, and let out a yelp seeing both his parents were there.

"Papá, Mamá?" Diego asked surprised.

Berto, and Rosa smiled at him before Berto said, "You sure did face a tough duel, and in the end you managed to win."

"We're so proud of you, niho, your getting stronger." Rosa smiled to him. "Soon you will be a great duelist."

Diego smiled hearing their support as he said, "Gracias Papá, Mamá for the support."

"De nada." They both smiled.

"Now get to bed Diego." Rosa smiled as she kissed his forehead.

"We'll see you in the morning." Berto smiled patting his head before they walked out as Diego climbed to bed.

'Boy that Blood Shepherd sure is a tough dude.' Diego thought as he closed his eyes, 'Is Playmaker able to beat someone like him?'

He soon went to bed as he didn't noticed or heard he had gotten a message on his LINK VRAINS message board.

'You got a message from user: Varis.'

Gunslinger activates the Spell Card, "World Legacy Succession" to Special Summon "Metalrokket" (1700/1400) from his Graveyard to a Main Monster Zone, "Booster Dragon" is pointing at.

As Blood Shepherd controls a "Drone" Monster, he activates his Set "Capture Drone" by targeting a Link Monster his opponent controls. That target has its effect negated and cannot be used as Link Material nor tributed. Blood Shepherd targets "Booster Dragon".

Gunslinger sets a card.

Turn 3: Blood Shepherd
Blood Shepherd uses "Drone Pawn" as Link Material to Link Summon "Battledrone Sergeant" (800/LINK-1/↓). He uses the effect of "Capture Drone", Special Summoning "Drone Tokens" (0/0) equal to the Link Rating of the monster targeted by this effect. "Booster Dragon" is a LINK-2 monster, so two "Drone Tokens" are summoned. Blood Shepherd then Normal Summons "Duplicate Drone" (0/0).

Blood Shepherd activates the effect of "Battledrone General", allowing him to Special Summon a "Drone" monster from his GY to the zone "Battledrone General" points to. He Special Summons "Drone Pawn" (600/0).

"Battledrone General" attacks "Metralrokket", but Gunslinger activates his face-down Quick-Play Spell Card "Squib Draw", destroying "Metalrokket" to draw two cards. Gunslinger intends for Blood Shepherd to attack "Booster Dragon" so "Capture Drone's" effect will expire, and he can Special Summon a Dragon from his graveyard due to "Booster Dragon's" effect. A replay occurs, and Blood Shepherd chooses not to attack.

During the End Phase, Gunslinger activates the effect of "Metalrokket" in his GY as it was destroyed this turn, allowing him to Special Summon a new, differently-named "rokket" from his Deck. He Special Summons "Magnarokket Dragon" (1800/1200) in Defense Position.

Turn 4: Gunslinger
Gunslinger activates the Field Spell "Boot Sector Launch". Due to its effect, "rokket" monsters will gain 300 ATK/DEF while it is active. ("Magnarokket": 1800 → 2100/1200 → 1500)

As Blood Shepherd controls a Link Monster, Gunslinger Special Summons "Gateway Dragon" (1600/1400) from his hand by its effect. Gunslinger activates the effect of "Gateway Dragon" to Special Summon a Level 4 or lower DARK Dragon monster from his hand. He Special Summons "Sniffer Dragon" (800/400). As "Sniffer Dragon" was Normal or Special Summoned, he activates its effect to add another copy of "Sniffer Dragon" from his Deck to his hand. Gunslinger uses "Gateway Dragon", "Sniffer Dragon", and "Magnarokket to Link Summon "Triple Burst Dragon" (2400/LINK-3/↑←↓) to the Main Monster Zone, "Booster Dragon" is pointing too.

Due to the effect of "Capture Drone" none of Gunslinger's Link Monsters can attack. Gunslinger at this point activates his skill Waters of Life in order to Special Summon "Borreload Dragon" (3000/LINK-4/←↙↘→) from his Extra Deck to the Left Link Arrow, "Triple Burst Dragon" is pointing at ignoring summoning conditions, and regain Life Points equal to half the ATK of the summoned monster. (Gunslinger: 1200 → 2700 LP) The monster summoned by the effect of Waters of Life cannot attack, and use it's effects during the turn it's summoned.

Turn 5: Blood Shepherd
Blood Shepherd uses the effect of "Capture Drone", Special Summoning "Drone Tokens" (0/0) equal to the Link Rating of the monster targeted by this effect. "Booster Dragon" is a LINK-2 monster, so two "Drone Tokens" are summoned. He uses his one "Drone Token" to Link Summon another copy of "Battledrone Sergeant" (800/LINK-1/↓).

Blood Shepherd activates the effect of "Battledrone General", Special Summoning "Drone Pawn" from his GY to the zone "Battledrone General" points to. Blood Shepherd then activates the other effect of "Battledrone General", allowing him to target a Level 4 or lower Drone monster with ATK 1000 or less he control and allow it to attack directly. He target "Drone Pawn".

"Drone Pawn" attacks Gunslinger directly (Gunslinger: 2700 → 2100 LP). As a "Drone" monster inflict battle damage by attack directly, Blood Shepherd activates the effect of "Battledrone General" allow him to tribute that monster to inflict damage equal to its ATK.

As a "Drone" Monster inflict battle damage by attack directly, Blood Shepherd activates the effect of "Battledrone Sergeant", allowing it to attack directly. "Battledrone Sergeant" attacks Gunslinger directly (Gunslinger: 1500 → 700 LP). As "Battledrone Sergeant" inflicted battle damage by attacking directly, Blood Shepherd activates the effect of "Battledrone General", tributing it to inflict damage equal to its ATK, but Gunslinger activates the effect of "Borreload Dragon", decreasing the ATK and DEF of a monster on the field by 500. Gunslinger targets "Sergeant" (800 → 300/LINK-1/↓) therefore from the effect of "Battledrone General" only 300 damage is inflicted. (Gunslinger: 700 → 400 LP).

Blood Shepherd activates his Skill "Drone Craft Force" to make "Triple Burst Dragon" loses 200 ATK for every "Drone" card in his GY, which in this case is 4 ("Triple Burst Dragon": 2400 → 1600 ATK), and "Battledrone General's" ATK gain the same amount ("Battledrone General": 2400 → 3200 ATK)

"Battledrone General" attacks "Triple Burst Dragon" but Gunslinger activates his face-down, "Flash Fusion" to Fuse "Triple Burst Dragon" with "Booster Dragon" in order to Fusion Summon, "Starving Venom Fusion Dragon" (2800/2000) in Attack Position to the Extra Monster Zone on his right. As "Booster Dragon" leave the field, "Capture Drone" is destroyed.

Blood Shepherd activates his face-down Continuous Trap Card "Drone Cordon", prevent his "Drone" monsters being target with card effects, also Gunslinger's Link Monsters cannot attack.

As it was Fusion Summoned, Gunslinger activates the effect of "Starving Venom" to have it gain the ATK of a Special Summoned monster Blood Shepherd controls. The effect does not target so the effect of "Drone Cordon" does not apply. Gunslinger chooses "Battledrone General" ("Starving Venom": 2800 → 6000 ATK)

A replay occurs, and Blood Shepherd uses "Battledrone General" to attack, and destroy "Borreload Dragon". (Gunslinger: 400 → 200 LP). During the End Phase the effect of "Flash Fusion" destroys "Starving Venom". As "Starving Venom" was destroyed when Fusion Summoned it's effect activates destroying all Special Summoned monsters on Blood Shepherd's field. "Battledrone General", and "Drone Token" were destroyed.

Turn 6: Gunslinger
Gunslinger activates the spell, "Allure of Darkness" to draw 2 cards, and remove the "Sniffer Dragon" in his hand from play. He then activates the Equip Spell "Borrel Regenerator", Special Summoning "Metalrokket" (1700 → 2000/1400 → 1700) from his GY in Attack Position and equipping to it.

He then Normal Summons a second copy of "Magnarokket" in Attack Position. (1800 → 2100/1200 → 1500) Both "Metalrokket", and "Magnarokket" attacks directly. (Blood Shepherd: 4000 → 2000 → 0 LP).


Well guys that is chapter one of the story here. It was a bit of a struggle trying to see how I can do Blood Shepherd since I can't use his deck in YGOPRO, and how to escape his fearsome Drone Combos with my Rokket Deck. In the end that was the only thing for victory I can managed to think of. Hope ya enjoyed this! Be sure to review!
