-Turn 1: Welcome to Card Central-
It was a beautiful day in Central City. The sun was shining, the clouds were fluffy and white and people were outside having the time of their lives. But this story isn't about those people. Instead, we go to the main card shop in Central City, known as Card Central.
Card Central was a decently sized card shop located in the downtown area. It was split up into sections depending on the card game. However, the main section in the shop was for a game known as "Cardfight! Vanguard", or Vanguard for short. The Vanguard section had a counter where the clerk was situated, and many tables where people could play the game. Despite the fact that the game is popular, there are always open tables for people to play at.
At one of the tables, there appeared to be some sort of commotion going on. A tall teen was shouting something. He was wearing a brown, black and white plaid long sleeved shirt, with the sleeves rolled up to just past his elbows. He tied together his look with a nice pair of jeans and shoes, but his looks weren't really important.
"Another victory! Can nobody in this cardshop be a challenge to me!?" He was shouting victorious praises about himself. People were starting to get annoyed with him. Finally somebody stood up. A teenage girl wearing a track jacket and t-shirt combo, sweatpants and sneakers. Her hair was done up in a ponytail, and based on her attire, she was likely coming from some athletic activity. She looked furious. "Hey, Wyatt, why don't you shut up? We get it, you can play this game, now give it a rest." She told him.
The shouting teen, named Wyatt, turned to face the girl. "Maybe I'll give it a rest if someone can beat me. Are you up to the challenge Jane?" Wyatt's tone was condescending and challenging. Jane walked to the other side of the table, taking a deck out of her jacket pocket. She rooted through it before placing a card facedown on the red circle on her side. "I'm ready when you are." She replied. Wyatt sat down again, cleaning up his deck before placing a card facedown on the middle of his side, identical to Jane's. The both of them drew five cards from their deck, mulliganing any cards they didn't need.
A crowd started forming around their table, most of the people on Jane's side. They clearly wanted Jane to win so that the standoffish Wyatt would finally shut up. "Let's just hope your talent can back up your attitude Jane. I won't get any joy out of beating you if you're not a challenge." Wyatt taunted. He was clearly sure that he would win the fight. "Just shut your mouth so we can start this already." Jane's anger was rising.
"Stand up, Vanguard!" The two players declared before flipping over their facedown cards. The two cardfighters could see themselves standing on a battlefield within their mind, before their starting vanguards took their places. Jane's card appeared to be a small elf nun carrying a pair of pistols. A circular box appeared, stating her power to be 5000. "Battle Sister, Waffle." Jane declared. On the other side, a young warrior who wore a headdress that resembled two black horse heads and carried two chain whips appeared in place of Wyatt. His power level read 4000. "Stronghold of the Black Chains, Hoel."
One of the members of the crowd, teen male wearing a dark red jacket, white shirt, jeans and black nikes raised an eyebrow. "Battle Sisters vs Gold Paladin? This should be interesting." He thought. "Let's see where this goes."
Wyatt drew a card. "I'll go first."
Wyatt's Hand: 6, Damage Zone: 0
"I'll ride Knight of Elegant Skills, Gareth. Hoel moves back." Wyatt placed the card on top of his first card, moving the original card behind Gareth. The young warrior was replaced with knight clad in red and gold armor who had a brown, braided ponytail and a sword in his hands. 8000 Power. The young warrior named Hoel moved behind Gareth. 4000 Power. "I'll end my turn there."
Jane drew a card.
Jane's Hand: 6, Damage Zone: 0
She sighed before riding her card. "I'll ride Battle Sister, Chocolat." Another elven nun appeared in place of Waffle, this one wearing large glasses and carrying a machine gun that appeared a bit too large for her. 6000 Power. "Waffle moves back as well." Waffle appeared behind Chocolat, ready for battle. 5000 Power. "Next, Waffle boosts, and Chocolat will attack your vanguard." Jane rested both her cards. Waffle started glowing with an aura, as it transferred over to Chocolat. The aura raised Chocolat's power as she aimed her machinegun at Gareth. 11000 Power.
"Go ahead. I won't guard this attack." Wyatt replied. As he did, Chocolat fired off a few shots at Gareth. "Drive check." Jane turned over the top card of her deck, revealing a card known as Battle Sister, Cocoa. It wasn't a trigger. The bullets hit around Gareth. "No trigger huh? A shame. Damage trigger check." Wyatt turned over the top card of his deck; Falcon Knight of the Azure. "But it looks like I got a draw trigger. I'll give the power to Gareth, then draw a card." Wyatt drew a card as Gareth stood back up, gaining a power boost. "Whatever, my turn is over." Jane was clearly frustrated.
"Riding a perfect guard, having your opponent damage check a draw trigger. The fight doesn't seem to be going Jane's way at all." The red jacketed youth thought.
"Well then, it's my turn. Get ready." Wyatt said, drawing a card.
Wyatt's Hand: 7, Damage Zone: 1
"I'll ride Flash Edge Valkyrie." Gareth was replaced by a female warrior clad in mostly white and light blue. She wore a birdlike helmet, and carried a sword and shield. On her back sprouted two white, feathered wings. 8000 Power. "Next, I'll call Lop Ear Shooter." Wyatt placed a card to the right of his vanguard, and a male warrior clad in white armor with two large, bunny ear-like protusions appeared beside Flash Edge Valkyrie. 9000 Power.
"First, my Lop Ear Shooter will attack." Wyatt said, putting Lop Ear Shooter at rest. One of the units ear-like protusions shifted its angle, pointing at Chocolat before opening itself up to reveal a gun-like device. It fired a shot off at Chocolat, hitting the area around her. Jane turned over the top card of her deck; Battle Sister Tiramisu. "I got a draw trigger. Chocolat gains 5000 power, and I get to draw a card." She put Tiramisu into the damage zone before drawing another card. Chocolat became surrounded by an aura of power, as her power level rose. 11000 Power.
"Next, boosted by Hoel, my Flash Edge Valkyrie will attack your vanguard." Hoel transferred a power aura to Flash Edge, as her own power level went up. 12000 Power. She took flight, making a path towards Chocolat. "Not a chance! Battle Sister Ginger will guard that attack!" Jane said, putting a card on the guardian circle. Another nun appeared on the battlefield, in between Chocolat and Flash Edge. This nun was carrying explosives. 10000 Shield.
"Alright then. Drive check." Wyatt turned over the top card of his deck. War Horse Raging Storm; not a trigger. "I didn't get a trigger, so it looks like my attack failed." Wyatt stated as he put the card in his hand. Wyatt's Valkyrie slashed Ginger, as she disappeared from the battlefield and Chocolat remained unharmed. "It's your turn Jane." Anyone looking at Wyatt could tell that he had a bit of a devilish smile on his face.
"I don't need you to tell me that. Stop trying to ruin my concentration!" Jane was practically yelling at Wyatt now. The commotion was drawing in a larger crowd now.
Jane's Hand: 7, Damage Zone: 1
"I'll ride Battle Sister Mocha. And I'll call Battle Sister Tart." Jane placed her two cards down. Chocolat was replaced by an elven nun (what a surprise) who carried no weapons at all. To her right, a taller elven nun carrying two grenade launchers appeared. "Now, boosted by Waffle, Mocha will attack your vanguard." Mocha jumped into the air, gaining the power boost. 13000 Power. "I won't guard. Go ahead and do your drive check." Wyatt's tone was as confident as ever.
Jane made a frown as she turned over the top card of her deck. Battle Sister Macaroon, not a trigger. Mocha continued the attack, landing a flying kick in Flash Edge's midsection. Wyatt placed the top card of his deck into the damage zone; War Horse Raging Storm. Since it wasn't a trigger, Wyatt had no effects to give to any unit.
"Next, Tart will attack Lop Ear Shooter." Jane said, putting Tart in the rest position. Tart aimed her grenade launcher at Lop Ear Shooter before firing a shot. The attack collided with Lop Ear Shooter, causing him to disappear from the battlefield. Wyatt placed the card in his drop zone, after which Jane ended her turn.
Since it was now his turn, Wyatt drew a card, smiling as he did. "Get ready Janey. This is when the battle gets serious." The youth in the dark red jacket raised an eyebrow at this statement. "Interesting. Maybe we'll see this Wyatt person's true talents finally." The youth thought to himself.

Author's Note:
So uh yeah. This is the first chapter of my story. I apologize if any of the names for people/places *coughcoughcardcentralcoughco ugh* are lame or boring, but I wanted to get this done and released soon, so I sorta rushed with descriptions and names. But overall, I feel I did a good job. Anyway, I wanted to write the whole first fight in this one chapter, but saw that it was over 4 pages in my word doc, so I felt that was getting a bit tediously long. Amirite?
Anyway, I should try to have a stable schedule for releasing the chapters, but something VERY important to the release is READER INPUT. So if there's anything you like about the story, or don't like, pleaser feel free to tell me in a review. But if you do, I ask that it's constructive. If it's bashing, I won't really want to read or listen to it. But the suggestions that my audience gives me will help me adjust anything, or help me catch mistakes I might have made (nobody's perfect afterall). If you have suggestions for elements you would like to see in the story like certain decks or even an oc, feel free to ask. However, it's almost definite that no characters from the actual series will show up, but it's for the best since it allows for the story to follow its own path.
I have to give a big thanks to the makers of Cardfight Capital, since I use it to simulate the fights for my story, and my friends who helped me simulate the fights as well as create characters/plot points. This wouldn't be possible without their help and support. And I can't possibly forget a thank you to the readers. Without you reading this, I would just be some crazy guy writing things for nobody.
