Hello and thank you for checking out my story, Yu-Gi-Oh! Re: Arc. I understand the title and maybe even the summary isn't great but I thank you nevertheless for giving it a chance.

Now on to the specifics (feel free to skip this).

This story will be taking place at the same time as Yugioh Arc-V, the official time will be revealed next chapter, and will be basically following my own set of characters(OCs) and their own story, along with utlizing some ideas from various idea the two most notable being Assassination Classroom and Durarara. This story's cast will feature mostly OCs, with some characters from Arc-V popping up to add to the story. I already have plans for Yuto to appear in a chapter soon enough and the three top students of LDS, (Yaiba, Masumi, and Hokuto) to appear quite frequently. Hokuto even has a major role in a certain character's story, that I think will be fun.

However, I do not have current plans to change with the Arc-V's story… yet. In my opinion, the XYZ and Fusion arcs haven't been the best, and I may find myself wanting to change it around to make it better in this story. Of course, that won't happen for a while, so if you do want to see something like this, feel free to tell me.

Onto the card, I only intend to use official cards from the OCG/TCG and no fan-made cards. The obvious exception to this are Action Cards (which are basically in-universe deus-ex machina… kinda), of which I will have an explanation to at the end. Luckily this first duel isn't an Action Duel, so no extra explanations!

This is my first time ever making something like this and criticism is very appreciated, especially when it comes to describing the duel. Any advice on that front would be very helpful, so don't be shy!

Finally, I do want to keep myself to a schedule for this story. Right now, I intend to update it every other Friday (United States EST). I've never put myself to a schedule like this ever before, but given the planned length of this, I may need to. Feel free to torment me with PMs if I end up not keeping to that schedule, haha.


Chapter 1: The Shadow Rider

Maiami City. A city located off the coast of Japan known around the world for reinventing how dueling works and creating the well-known competition of Action Duels. An entertaining event where duelists must duel each other and engage the audience through their resounding blows. Thanks to this Maiami city has quickly grown into a dueling hotspot, where duelists around the world converge to show off their skills.

The hero of this story… well, he came to this city to profit off the stories of duels rather than participate in them himself.

"You're fired!"

"WHAT?!"

Well… trying to at least.

"What do you mean? Why am I fired?" A young man around the age of 19, with short curly orange hair and a lanky, tall frame, cried, slamming his hands down onto the desk of his boss. He was wearing rather normal clothes for someone leaving in this city, just a pair of brown pants and a white dress shirt, along with a pair of sneakers. His clothes and hair looked rustled, since he had just gotten out of bed and an old camera was thrown around his neck.

His boss, a crusty grumpy old man, simply tossed his cigarette into a nearby trash can. "Ki-Roy you haven't gotten me a good story in the two years that you've been working." He held up a newspaper and held it to Roy's face. "A story about the failing duel schools in the city?" He cleared his throat and began to read the article in the question, "The You Show Duel School is run by a friend of the late Sakaki Yusho, yet for some reason it only has a couple of students attended whilst LDS…" He slammed the paper down. "No one's gonna read something as stupid as this, kid!"

"But… but sir!" Roy tried to argue. "There's nothing interesting in this city that I can write about!"

His boss, simply raised an eyebrow. "Nothing. You mean the countless action duels that take place in this city every single day?"

"Urk!" Roy gulped, adjusted his collar. "I mean… uh… you see…"

His boss raised a hand, stopping Roy from thinking of a decent excuse. "Listen here, kid. I like you… kinda." He paused. "I don't really, but I think it's fun to watch you squirm. So, I'll give you this chance. If you get me a good story, before the end of the month then I'll think about keeping you on."

Roy, inwardly groaned knowing that his boss was basically sending him on a fool's errand at this point since he seriously doubted that he could find a decent story within that timeframe. Nevertheless, he nodded. "Yes sir."

"Good!" His boss placed the cigarette back into his mouth. "Now git out of here and don't come back without that story." He paused. "And when you come in to edit things, of course." He glared at Roy. "What are you waiting for? Go!"

Roy rushed out of the office, to go and pack his things. Entering his small cubicle (that barely qualified as one), he stuffed his notepad and several writing utensils into his bag. He was about to leave, when he had a second thought and grabbed his deck from a small drawer before slipping it into his pocket.

Running out of the building and onto the sidewalk, he realized that he didn't really have any idea of what he was going to do. A story good enough to impress his boss, the chief of the Maiami Times? He barely liked any of the stories that were run on the front page, much less Roy's worthless dribble.

Well, picking a random direction and just looking for anything interesting, started like a good start, Roy decided, as he turned to the left and started to walk forward, but not before grabbing his bicycle from the wall. As he walked with his bicycle next to him, he began to keep an ear out for any gossip and tidbits he may hear. However as soon as he started, he sighed and gave up just a quickly.

No, simple gossip and small stories wouldn't do. He needed something big. He needed something fresh. He needed something…

"Look, it's the Shadow Rider!" someone cried out to his right.

Yes, he need something… wait, what?!

Turning his head a complete ninety degrees, he spotted it. A woman riding on a dark motorcycle, wearing a black helmet and a skin-tight racing suit of the same color. She was easily passing by cars, going at a nearly impossible speed down the road. She was swerving through the traffic easily, looking undeterred in her rampage.

A nearby couple started to whisper to each other once witnessing the rider. "Did you see…?" "I didn't think it was real…" "Wasn't it just an urban legend…?" were some of the various whispers that Roy heard around him.

"Who wears those types of clothes these days, anyway?" Roy muttered to himself, not really impressed with the nighttime vigilante at all. "It's almost like…" A sudden idea hit him.

Of course! The Shadow Rider would make the perfect story to give to his boss! It was already somewhat of an urban legend in Maiami City, that made its way onto the internet. Well… urban legend with a lot of prove, but something that was still something mysterious in the city, that could totally be turned into a great article.

"Whhhoooooo!" Roy let out a garbled shout, startling a few passersby and hopped onto his bike. "Story, here I come!" He started to pedal as fast as he could in the direction that the Shadow Rider was headed.

xXx

It was a good thirty minutes in, before he realized what a horrible idea this was. He had lost the Rider almost immediately, and was currently traveling in the general direction that the woman was heading. Which had quickly turned into him, slowly traveling through a… um… less than appealing place.

A seedy-looking place. That was the word that he was looking for.

He continued to pedal, glancing around the streets to spot anything resembling the Shadow Rider, already ready to bolt out of there at the first sign of trouble.

"Why does this always happen to me?" He wondered aloud, before spotting something in a nearby alleyway.

The Shadow Rider's motorcycle.

The thing was a relic of the past (not that his bicycle wasn't too) something out of the beginning of the 21st century. Nothing really that impressive, but it must have been hopped up on current tech if it could run so well. As Roy, rode in closer, he spotted a dashboard on the front of the cycle, continuing a map and a place to put your Duel Disk in.

Man, that thing would be cool for him. He absently wondered where he could buy one, before shaking his head.

Now was not the time. Currently he figured that there would be two possibilities, this could be the Rider's home, or, and the more likely possibility, she was currently handing out some vigilante justice to some random crooks.

The Shadow Rider had become some sort of real-life legend in Maiami City. A vigilante dealing out otherworldly justice through supernatural powers, was basically something straight out of a manga and it's no wonder everyone grew so attached to it. While Roy doubted that was ever the case, it had still grown into a massive phenomenon. Plus, with the multiple sightings of her, no one could deny that she was anything but real.

Which made getting a story on her, such a big deal. He still couldn't believe that he got as lucky as finding her here. Plenty of other reporters had tried to track her down to no avail. Every other one had given up, including him, at least until he was basically forced to y his boss.

Roy crept forward, finding a small metal fence at the end of the alleyway. There was a large hole in the middle of it, which he crawled through, before ducking behind a pile of crates and peeking out at the scene before him.

Two men were quietly unloading several crates from a small warehouse into a dark van behind them. Roy adjusted the zoom on his camera, so that he could see what the crates held inside of them. "They're transporting cards…?" he muttered, seeing the multicolored cards all bundled together and stored in the wooden crates. "Why do it in the middle of nowhere?"

He held his breath as he noticed someone walking up to the men, a duel disk over her arm and wearing a dark helmet that covered their face.

It was the Shadow Rider.

They stood there silently not making a sound, before one of the men turned around and noticed them standing right behind them. The man let out a strangled gasp and stumbled backwards, hiding behind the other guy who was the bigger and more muscular of the two. "Oi," the bigger one grunted. "What do you want?" When the Rider didn't answer, he tried again with a different question. "Who are you?"

The Rider scoffed. "Does that really matter?" they asked, showing off their sleek black and purple Duel Disk. Roy blinked, noticing that the Rider's voice was distinctly feminine.

"This is the scoop of the century," he whispered excitedly to himself, writing down some notes on his notepad.

The man snorted. "Do you know who I am, lady?"

"Should I know?" The Rider asked back.

"If you're in this parts then yes." The man grinned and placed a Duel Disk on his own arm. "My name is Kasai. Ravaging Kasai." He smirked noticing The Rider's silence. "Scared shitless huh?"

"I'm more uninterested," she drawled, causing Kasai's smile to fall. "How childish to call yourself that." She sighed. "Anyway, I'm actually here for that." She gestured to the crates of cards. "My employer wants them for himself, so if you could just give them to me right now then I can leave with anyone getting hurt."

Kasai grunted. "I have a better idea. You can duel me and if you beat me you can take the stuff. Alright?"

"This isn't a very good idea…" the other guy muttered, inching his way towards the front of the car. "She seems dangerous. Isn't she that…?"

"Can it," Kasai grunted, before giving the Shadow Rider a wide smile and activated his own orange Duel Disk. "Deal?"

She nodded and activated her Duel Disk, a thin purple Solid Vision hologram appearing. "Deal."

Roy held his breath. Was he actually going to watch the Shadow Rider duel. This was incredible. This was practically the best thing that had ever happened in his career. He should've nearly gotten fired years ago!

Wait, scratch that. Nearly getting fired was never a good thing.

"Duel!" Both the Shadow Rider and Kasai said at the same time, startling Roy out of his musings.

[Kasai: 4000 LP Hand: 5]

[Shadow Rider: 4000 LP Hand: 5]

"I think I'll go first," Kasai grinned as he stared at his hand. "Alright… First off, I'll activate the two Continuous Spell cards, Call of the Mummy and Everliving Underworld Cannon!" Two objects appeared in front of him, a giant coffin and a cannon made from the bones of what looked to be a dragon. "I activate Call of the Mummy's effect! It let me summon one Zombie-type monster from my hand." He picked a card and slapped in onto his Duel Disk. "I special summon the monster Skull Flame!"

A large skeleton draped in a magician's cloak and, basically, with its head on fire, appeared on the field. [Skull Flame Lv. 8 ATK: 2600] It held out its hands and seemed to be glaring at the Shadow Rider. "Everliving Underworld Cannon's effect activates!" Kasai laughed, as the bone cannon pointed itself straight at the Rider. "If a Zombie-type monster is Special Summoned to my side of the field, I can deal 800 damage to my opponent!"

Roy eye's widened. He was dealing damage on the first turn?

The Underworld Cannon fired a ghostly skull straight at the Shadow Rider's feet, who covered her helmet with her arms as the skull exploded in a flash of bright light. When it died down, she simply looked back at her opponent and waited for him to finish his turn.

[Shadow Rider LP: 4000-800= 3200]

"Next up I activate Skull Flame's effect! I can special summon one Burning Skull Head from my hand." A large human skull on fire appeared in front of him. [Burning Skull Head Lv. 3 ATK: 1000] "When Burning Skull Head is special summoned, I deal 1000 damage to my opponent!" The Skull opened its mouth and sprayed some fire at the Rider.

[Shadow Rider LP: 3200-1000= 2200]

Kasai smirked. "Having some trouble there, huh?" he asked. "I think I'll end my turn." His smirk grew wider. "You're free to give up anytime miss."

"It's my turn," she replied simply, drawing a card. She glanced at it for a second. "I summon Magician's Robe to the field." [Magician's Robe Lv. 2 ATK: 700] "I'll then equip it with the Equip Spell One-Shot Wand!" The floating robe gripped the crescent wand that appeared in the air and pointed it at Kasai. [Magician's Robe ATK: 700 +800= 1500]

Kasai rolled his eyes and grinned. "Ya got your math there correct, little lady? My Skull Flame has more than 1000 more attack then your little ghost." He snickered. The fabled Shadow Rider was nothing more than a little girl trying to splay superhero.

"I'll have Magician's Robe attack…" Her head flicked over to Burning Skull Head. "Burning Skull Head!" The floating robe attacked the skull, shattering it into pieces. Kasai just grunted, as his life points crawled down. [Kasai: 4000-500= 3500 LP]

"With that I'll end my turn there," the Rider drawled, as she ended her turn.

Roy frowned. She was losing but the Rider seemed completely… calm? She had a monster with lower attack than Skull Flame on the field and if he summoned another monster then he could win…. right?

Kasai drew a card from his deck. "My turn!" he said. He glanced at the card that he just drew and placed it into his hand. "I attack Magician's Robe with Skull Flame!" From his hands, Skull Flame created a small ball of flames and fired it at the monster.

"I activate Magician's Robe effect!" The Shadow Rider suddenly said. "By discarding a Trap Card from my hand, I can special summon a Dark Magician from my deck." A card ejected itself from her deck and she grabbed it placing it on her Duel Disk. "I special summon the ultimate magician of both attack and defense, Dark Magician!" The old iconic card of Duel Monsters appeared on the field, spinning his purple staff in his hand. [Dark Magician Lv. 7 ATK: 2500]

"So, what?" Kasai growled. "It doesn't stop Skull Flame's attack! Go Skull Flame! Attack her Magician's Robe!" Skull Flame's fireball grew larger and the monster threw it at Magician's Robe shattering it to pieces. [Shadow Rider 2200-1100=1100 LP]

"I activate the equip spell One-Shot Wand's effect!" Shadow Rider said, just as Magician's Robe shattered into pieces. "I can destroy it after damage calculation and draw one card!" She placed her hand on her deck and paused.

Roy frowned, wondering what she could be possibly thinking. She managed to summon out a Dark Magician straight from her deck but with less attack than Skull Flame wasn't it useless?

The Shadow Rider drew her card and Roy could've sworn that he saw her smiling underneath her helmet. "You're an idiot," she said to Kasai.

Kasai ground his teeth together. "What you little bitch?"

"You could've used Skull Flame's effect to grab a Flaming Skull Head from the graveyard instead of doing your normal Draw Phase. Then using Skull Flame's effect, special summon said Flaming Skull Head and dealt 1800 damage to me once again." She was giggling underneath that helmet. "Instead you decided just to attack the bait I laid out for you. Thanks for that."

"Shut it," Kasai growled. "How you know I didn't just plan to do it on my next turn, huh?"

She sighed and shrugged. "You just don't get it, do you?" She pointed to Skull Flame. "That's because that monster isn't going to be around next turn."

"With what? Grandpa over there?" he gestured to Dark Magician.

"Exactly." She sounded extremely confident to Roy. "Now end your turn already."

Kasai grunted. "I end my turn."

"It's my turn!" She drew a card. "From my hand, I activate the spell card Dark Magic Attack! With Dark Magician on the field I can destroy all Spell and Trap cards on the field!" Both Everliving Underworld Cannon and Call of the Mummy shattered into pieces.

"Tch." Kasai gritted his teeth for a second before grinning. "So, what? Dark Magician still doesn't have enough attack power to take out Skull Flame."

"I then activate the Quick-Play Spell Magic Expand! My Dark Magician gains 1000 ATK until the end of this turn!" [Dark Magician 2500+1000= 3500 ATK]

"What?!"

"Go Dark Magician!" The Shadow Rider shouted. "Dark Magic Attack!" Dark Magician raised its staff and pointed it straight at Skull Flame, charging up a large purple ball of energy. He pointed it at Skull Flame and fired it, shattering Kasai's monster into pieces.

[Kasai 3500-900=2600 LP]

"Damnit," He muttered, glancing back at the truck behind him. His partner, who had gotten in the driver's seat nodded and gave him an inconspicuous thumbs-up. Everything was set up for their get-away. All he had to do was win this duel.

"I set one card facedown on the field," his opponent said, as a vertical backing appeared in front of her. "And end my turn. And because of that Dark Magician's Attack returns to normal." [Dark Magician ATK: 3500-1000= 2500]

"I draw," Kasai shouted. He glanced over his hand. "First off I activate Foolish Burial from my hand, to send one Burning Skull Head from my Deck to the Graveyard." He grinned and cracked his knuckles. "Sorry lady, but I'm summoning my best monster now. You don't stand a chance."

"Try me."

Roy blinked. Was that enjoyment he had heard from underneath the helmet? In this sort of situation?

"I remove from play Skull Flame from my Graveyard to Special Summon this monster from my hand! Supersonic Skull Flame, my ace monster!" A centaur-like monster with Skull Flame's body appeared in front of Kasai. [Supersonic Skull Flame Lv.10 ATK: 2600]

"I activate Supersonic's effect! It deals you 400 damage times the amount of Burning Skull Heads are in my Graveyard!" Kasai grinned. "Right now, I have two. Meaning I can deal you with 800 points of damage!" Two ghostly images of Burning Skull Head divebombed the Shadow Rider. [Shadow Rider LP: 1100-800=300]

"My Supersonic Skull Flame then attacks your Dark Magician!" Kasai ordered. The monster fired a stream of fire at Dark Magician causing it to shatter into pieces. The Shadow Rider visibly flinched at the sight of her monster being destroyed like that. [Shadow Rider LP: 300-100=200]

"And with that I'll end my turn," Kasai said. He smirked. "Face it. You've lost. Next turn my Skull Flame will burn you once more and you'll lose."

The Shadow Rider didn't answer him and instead gazed around the field as she drew her card. "And with this I'll call it my victory," she said, without even bothering to check the card in her hand.

Kasai's smile faltered. "Huh?"

Roy just stared. As ignorant as he was about Duel Monsters he couldn't see a good way to come out of this situation for the Rider. All she had was three cards in her hand and one card set face-down, which she didn't use on her opponent's turn. However, could that set card have something to do with was she was so confident?

The same thought had apparently crossed Kasai's mind, as he was staring at his hand sweating. "You're thinking that you should've used that MST beforehand right?" The Rider called to him.

Kasai paled. "How… How did you…?"

"It's useless. I call that this is my Final Turn!" she said, and Roy could feet his heart grow faster at these words in excitement. "I activate the Trap Card Magician Navigation!" The card she had set prior flipped up. "With this trap card, I can summon one Dark Magician from my hand! Be revived, Dark Magician!" Another copy of Dark Magician materialized on the field. [Dark Magician Lv. 7 ATK: 2500] "I can then Special Summon a Spellcaster with 2000 or less ATK from my Deck! I choose Magician's Rod!" A second copy of Dark Magician's rod materialized next to him, and the magician grabbed it easily wielding the second copy in his right hand. [Magician's Rod Lv. 3 ATK: 1600]

"S-So what?" Kasai blubbered out. "Both of those monsters are still not enough to take on my own monster!" Almost as if to illustrate his point, his monster reared itself up and let out a loud growl.

The Rider snorted. "I don't even have to battle your monster to take it out," she said. "I activate the Spell Card Thousand Knives!" Dark Magician waved both of his rods as a multitube of kitchen knives appeared from them. "When Dark Magician is on the field, I can target one monster on the field and destroy it. I choose…" She paused and pointed at Supersonic Skull Flame. "Your only monster!"

"What?!" Both Roy and Kasai said at the same time. Luckily, everyone was too focused on the duel to even notice the third voice added into the fray.

Dark Magician swung its staff sending the knives towards Supersonic Skull Flame. They pierced the monster, causing it to dissipate into nothing from the attack. Kasai eyes bulged out of his skull. "Dammit!" He looked around the field, before realizing that there were no Action Cards.

"Go Dark Magician and Magician's Rod! Attack him directly!" The Shadow Rider yelled, as Dark Magician brought together its two staffs and began charging a magical attack. "Double Dark Magic Attack!" Dark Magician launched the giant ball of dark magic where it exploded on contact!

[Kasai LP: 2600-4100= 0 LP]

Shadow Rider WINS!

Kasai stumbled backward shielding his hands from the blast of dark magic, as his life points were reduced to zero. "I… lost?" he asked himself, gritting his teeth.

The Rider nodded, deactivating her Duel Disk as her monsters disappeared. "You did," she confirmed, walking towards Kasai, who stumbled back until his back was to his truck. "Now you'll hand over the cards you're transporting and waddle along to a nearby police station to turn yourselves in."

Kasai smirked. "You really think I'll just hand it over?" he asked, before pounding his fist onto to back of the trailer, making a dull sound echo throughout the alley. "Get out of here!"

The truck roared to life and, with surprising speed, accelerated forward, crashing through a nearby chain-link fence and out onto the main street.

"Shit!" The Shadow Rider kneed Kasai in the stomach and the grunt stumbled back. She turned around to follow the truck, but was suddenly tackled from behind by Kasai, who had recovered quite quickly from her own attack. Roy was frozen in fear, unable to get up, only able to watch the event unfold in front of him.

He pinned her down and grinned. "Now let's see what's really under that helmet," he said, ripping it off. Roy tried to lean forward to see if he could snap a picture of the face, but Kasai was blocking his view. "What?" He heard Kasai say, before the Shadow Rider, managed to wrestle her arm free and punch him in the face. The grunt looked surprised as he fell back, knocked out.

The Shadow Rider picked her helmet off the ground and Roy was finally able to get a good look of her face. He let out a tiny gasp, forgetting to even take a picture as he marveled at the Rider's beauty. Pale porcelain skin framed a perfect face and long thin black hair cascaded from her head. He could even see a small mole next to her mouth that made her look even more beautiful…

As Roy was mesmerized by the Shadow Rider, she quickly put the helmet back on her head and dashed towards her bike, completely missing the crouched Roy. She hopped on and rode off, clearly intending to follow the truck. Roy blinked and realized that she had left. "I… I didn't get a picture of her face," he mumbled, looking through the pictures he had taken of the duel and then back at the unconscious grunt. "Well this should be enough to keep my job… I think."

He sighed. "Well hopefully it's good enough for the boss," he muttered, as he walked back towards his bicycle, before spotting something on the ground, that looked like a small clipboard. He flipped through the papers attached to it. "Is this… a class roster?" he murmured, noticing the cursive words scrawled at the top that read, "LDS Failure Class."

Pocketing the papers, Roy decided it was best to head home and start writing his job-saving story. He hopped on his bicycle, before blinking and looking around the rather shady street of Maiami City. "Uh… how-how do I get home?"

xXx

Loki inwardly sighed, staring at the dark faces of his subordinates- employees seated around a large table.

A board meeting. One of the worst and most uninteresting parts of running a healthy business. Especially if your business was one of the biggest in the world. Not very fun for someone like him.

Industrial Illusions. A company that publishes the and produces the Yu-Gi-Oh! card game and distributes the game all around the world. A company that had gone through major reconstructing throughout the many years that the game had existed (along with giving up the rights to Dungeon Dice Monsters), following the various rises and falls of the card game. The current CEO of the company was a person who was only known as Loki. A young man, with long blue hair that went halfway to his neck and had shifty golden eyes. He was currently some simple clothes of blue jeans and a black T-shirt, and he was currently tapping his fingers against the table and rolling his eyes, as he watched the more older members debate about some asinine topic.

"I haven't seen you say anything about this, Loki," one of them said, pulling a cigarette out of his mouth and glaring at the CEO. "Especially it was you who made and approved this cards."

Well… maybe not so asinine.

"Red-Eyes? Blue-Eyes? Toons?" The cigarette man blew out a puff of smoke, causing Loki to wave the smoke away from his face. "And what are these Number cards you've also approved? What's the point of all of this?"

Loki rolled his eyes. "There's nothing wrong with using cards from history and giving them new things to work with," he pointed out dryly.

"History?" Another person frowned. "I've never heard of these cards before. And don't think we haven't heard of your, ah, project." He leaned in. "Be honest, sir. What are you really planning?"

He rolled his eyes. Old geezers. They had no idea how to stay out of his business. He opened his mouth to respond, when the doors opened, causing everyone to look over at them. His assistant, Mary, had walked in and was frozen at the doorway. Loki sighed and waved her over, letting the old men continue to argue with each other. "What's wrong?" he whispered to her, already having a good feeling of what the issue was.

"Sir." She bit her lip and she leaned into his ear. "It's the Shadow Rider again. Luckily, she didn't manage to get the cards this time, but one of the people we hired has been arrested."

He nodded. "Send the bail money for him through one of our contacts and tell him to make sure he isn't followed this time."

Mary nodded and walked away, as Loki leaned back in his chair and massaged his temples. Reiji Akaba. How could that man know so much yet know so little? Loki knew that Reiji was trying his best to keep the coming Dimensional War under wraps, even from him, but the signs were already there. Reiji's agent, the Shadow Rider as dubbed by the mass public, was already causing enough trouble as it was, and he heard talks from his spies that LDS was already developing their own Action Field that didn't need a full Solid Vision System to function. Not only that he had recently received news that the XYZ Dimension had fallen, but he had also heard of a Synchro Duelist jumping dimensions. It was only a matter of time before Academia attacked Standard.

Loki smirked. Things were certainly getting interested. And with the plan he was setting up, he would be the one to reap all the benefits from the coming war.

He couldn't wait.


Next Time On Yu-Gi-Oh! Re: Arc…

Roy having been mesmerized by the Shadow Rider decides to dig a little deeper into who she could be. His search leads him to the Failure Class where a meets a group of eight students who are the lowest of the low at LDS, all of them with an abysmal win-loss rate. Along with their teacher who looks extremely familiar. However, one of the students, Yuta, is having a duel the very same day against one of LDSs top Fusion users, one that would determine if he is to stay a student of the duel school. Does Yuta have what it takes?

Next time: The Failure Class


Thank you for reading the first chapter of my new story! Reviews and constructive criticism are appreciated! It's my first time doing a story like this so I am rather nervous!
