Destiny sat in the living room. She sorted through her deck and began muttering to herself. "I don't know Nightmare." she said mildly, "This deck is unbeatable as it is, do we really need the cards you were talking about?"

The spirit in question appeared, "Yes, we do need to make some changes or we'll fall into too many habits. Trust me, I know."

"Just because we unlocked a new form for you doesn't mean we need to change the whole dynamic. Tell you what, I'll add Crystal and Apposes and we'll call it good. Deal?" Nightmare nodded and Destiny set to work. "This is going to be fun, with all the Dark Signer drama behind us we can get ready for the tournament." she giggled.

...

A few hours later at Sugar Cube Corner, Destiny met her friends at their usual table. "So guys, what do you think about the upcoming tournament?" she asked.

Rainbow Stream held up the foreleg with his disk. "I think I'll tear through everypony there." he said.

"Dinky, Diamond, and Dad will be in this." Destiny reminded him, earning an annoyed look from her coltfriend. "What?"

"Ah just want to get a good duel in for once. Avid, Cherry, and I never got a crack at the Dark Signers." Applespike said mildly.

"I'm with Applespike." Avid said, "My Magicians didn't get a crack at those doomsday dolts and Cherry needs some sort of outlet for her energy."

"Yeah," Cherry Pie chimed in, "I can't wait for the tournament to begin, can you? But what if something happens and the tournament gets postponed, or-" everypony else tuned her out about then.

"I hear the twins are going to be in it." Screwball whispered. Rarity and Blueblood's kids, The Crystal Twins, were known for their unbeatable tag duel abilities. "There are going to be duelists from all over Equestria coming for Battle Nation. Who knows what will happen?"

Destiny stood. "I'm going to ride Soul Striker, anyone want to come with?" she asked. Stream stood and the couple left.

...

"Going fast makes me feel alive. My heart beats in hyperdrive." Destiny sang as she continued riding the track. "How are we doing for the power?" she asked.

"Almost to top speed, but I don't want to bust down again." her runner replied.

"One time, that was one time!" Destiny snapped.

"Transmition coming in." it informed before pulling up a video of Avid.

"You better get down here. Bronze is at it again and she's dueling everyone in sight, asking for you." he informed. Destiny called for Stream and both sped off.

...

Destiny pulled up where the message had come from and disengaged her runner. "Okay Bronze, I'm here. Let's duel."

The bronze coated mare smiled. "Good, I'll enjoy this."

"Duel!"

Destiny's Hand:8000

Bronze Dagger:8000

"I'll kick things off." Bronze said, drawing. "I play Double summon to summon Wind-Up Warrior(ATK:1200) and Soldier(ATK:1800). I play my other double summon to sacrifice my monsters. Within darkness you see the power of my envy. I summon Seven Sin-Leviathamon(ATK:4000)." A giant sea serpent appeared from the ground. "I end my turn with one card facedown."

Beware the Seven Sins. Naraku's last words hissed in Destiny's ears. "I'll start by summoning this in defense mode and playing two cards facedown. That ends my turn."

...

Andrew sat up, feeling a shiver go down his spine, and not concerning the position he was in with Derpy. "Something's wrong." he whispered.

"Derpy, hate to bug you, but there's some dark energy coming from the town square and I can feel Nightmare and Destiny fighting it." both pegusi stood up and sped off to the square, where Andrew saw Leviathamon.

"That's a digimon!" Andrew cried.

Here we go again.
