The Future of Duel Academy

Chapter 1

Adam Stephano strolled down the harbor pier. He was waiting for the boat that would take him to Duel Academy. A boat drifted lazily across the waves. A girl walked by him. She was wearing a white shirt with blue stripes going down from the neck in the pattern of a house. "Somebody's mind is wandering." She grunted at Adam.

"Huh?" he said.

"You aren't paying attention." She growled.

"You got a problem with that?" asked Adam.

"Yes." she said.

"Too bad for you." he replied.

"Hey you guys wait up. Hey. HEY. HEY!"

"Oh, hi Dan." Adam said, startled.

"I heard you two were coming to Duel Academy again this year." Dan said. "Yeah. We only told you about ten million times." replied the girl.

"I'm going to be the best dueler in the academy this year now that Jaden is gone." Adam boasted. "Not even Blair here can beat me."

"Oh I wouldn't get to cocky if I were you Carl." replied Blair.

"I'm going to beat you both so be quiet." Dan stated.

"We still have a while before the boat gets here." Adam observed. "Why don't we duel to settle this? First me versus Blair. Then winner versus Dan."

"Sounds good." said Blair and Dan at the same time.

"I'll start," said Blair.

"O.K." Adam replied. "As long as you don't lose on the first turn."

"You know I won't. I activate my Pot of Greed magic card. It lets me draw 2 more cards. Then I'll set a card face down and summon Neo Bug in attack mode (1800 attack-1700 defense Earth type) and end my turn." Blair said.

"All right. My turn. I'll set a monster facedown in defense mode and end my turn." Adam said.

"I draw. Then I'll summon Jerry Beans Man in attack mode. (1750 attack- 0 defense Earth attribute) Jerry Beans Man will attack your facedown monster and destroy it." Adam's facedown card was destroyed. It was Tenkabito Shien. (1500 attack 1000 defense Fire attribute) "Then Neo Bug will attack directly." Adam's life points went down to 2200. "This duel is as good as over, Adam." Blair said.

"I don't think so. I'll remove my Tenkabito Shien from play to special summon Inferno in defense position. (1100 attack- 1900 defense Fire Attribute) Then I'll summon Disciple of the Forbidden spell in attack mode." (1700 attack- 800 defense light Attribute) "Your turn."

"This is too easy. I summon Hieracosphinx (2400 attack- 1200 defense Earth Attribute)in attack mode by sacrificing Jerry Beans Man. Hieracosphinx will destroy Inferno. Neo Bug will destroy Disciple of the Forbidden Spell." With that series of attacks Adam's life points dropped to 2100 While Blair's remained at 4000. "Your move, and you'd better make the best of it."

"Oh I will. First I use The Cheerful Coffin. This lets me send three of my monsters to the graveyard. They are Toon Blue Eyes White Dragon, Despair From the Dark, and Zombrya the Dark. Because I sent my Despair From the Dark from my deck to the graveyard I get to summon it for free. (Despair From the Dark-2800 attack- 3000 defense Dark Type) Then I'll remove my Toon Blue Eyes White Dragon and Zombrya the Dark to special summon Black Luster Soldier- Envoy of the Beginning in attack mode.(3000 attack- 2500 defense Light type) Then I'll activate Soul Release. This lets me remove up to five monsters from play. Then I summon Gren Maju Da Eiza. (? Attack- ? defense) The number of cards removed from play times 400 boosts this card's attack and defense scores. I have four cards removed from play for 1600 attack and 1600 defense. Then I'll activate Heavy storm to destroy your facedown card. Now Black Luster Soldier- Envoy of the Beginning will attack Neo Bug. Then I'll activate its special effect. You see if it destroys a monster it can attack again so I'll have it destroy your Hieracosphinx." Blair's life points dropped to 2200. "Despair From the Dark, finish her." Blair's life points dropped to zero. "Good duel." said Adam grinning.

"Wow! Where did you get all those rare cards?" asked Dan.

"I went to work at Industrial Illusions over the summer. This was my paycheck. Now you know why nobody can beat me." Adam explained. "Oh hey, the boats here!"

"All right. I don't have to duel him." Dan commented triumphantly.
