I know i should update on my other story (which is a cross between Ultra series and YGO) but i don't really have any plot for it yet. and when i browse through the net to find some idea, I found the idea, but not to that story. so here I am, writing a new story. but worry not, this one has plot so i will definitely update it.
This story is inspired by hakweyeriku's Eternal Hawk. so, without further ado. let's get it started
"Direct Attack with Red Nova Dragon! Burning Soul!" I declared as I touched the panel in front of me and the screen shows an animation of Red Nova Dragon attacking my opponent's avatar. The crowds roared as I gained yet another victory and defended my title.
"Wow! Yet another victory from our King, Rully!" The MC announced my victory over my opponent who just debuted tonight. Just before he continue his speech, I asked for the official to give me a mic. "Oh, the King got the mic, looks like he got something to say to our new star"
"You're good kid, I admit that. but it's still much too early for you to challenge me! Sharpen your skills, and you might get a chance to challenge me again someday" I said to my opponent. The MC then proceeded to end tonight's show after he babbled some more. Not wanting to stay there, I walked away from the studio to the locker room.
It was year 2025, Yu-Gi-Oh TCG has now evolved. Not only to have fun playing, but also for a professional entertainment show. The idea started a few years after the last Yu-Gi-Oh franchise ended. The development team has not decided a new title for the next generation of the franchise, causing it to take a year of hiatus. After the hiatus, the development team of Yu-Gi-Oh announced that there will be no new anime of the franchise, but instead a pro-wrestling like entertainment show will replace it. They named the show Duel Kingdom, just like Pegasus' tournament name in the very first anime.
They held audition all over the world, to collect some duelist to act as it's first rooster, which I entered and succeeded to pass the audition. Then, after the rooster was completed, various tournament were held to determine the champions of various title. The champions were given duel disks replicas, these duel disks were the equivalent of pro-wrestling's championship belt.
Just like in pro-wrestling, the duelists were given various storyline and feuds. But instead of pre-determined winning result, the match goes on normally and the storyline will continues until a certain result had met. And instead of a ring, the matches were held at a studio where a dueling panel is set. These panels were connected to a screen, so instead of holographic projection like in the anime, the monsters were displayed as an animation on the screen.
The show didn't have the expected popularity at first, but after a few years run, it is now very popular and even aired all over the world. While most of the show were shot in Japan, it is quite often have a tour to other countries.
The show has run for 5 years now. I met a bunch of great duelist here, some of which became my best friends, but not few became my enemy. At first I don't have any enemies here, while some duelist may not like me, but they mostly just ignore me. It was not until my first time reigning as a King (similar to world champion in pro-wrestling) two years ago that I gained some enemies. Most of them were peoples who got frustrated since their storyline with me were canceled, or simply never proceed to a different result.
I did lost my title a few time, but right now I managed to obtained it again. Even now I managed to make 15 -0 undefeated streak, which is current longest streak. Whoopsie, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Wahyu Rulyanto, a 22 years old professional duelist with dark skin and a blond-dyed long hair. I have a dark brown eyes and a scar that looked like a closed eye across my forehead. Right now I wore my costume which was inspired from Jack Atlas' costume. It consists of white long coat with a black 'horn' on the shoulders and some black linings. I wore a brown belt with two waist bag consisting my two decks. I also wore a white trouser and light blue boots. Right now I am going to my locker room to change my clothes.
Duel Kingdom, Men Locker Room
I just finished changing my clothes into a black muscle shirt and a black leather jacket when a knock sounded on the door. It opened to reveal a woman with a face that could only be described as a genderbend of Sylvester Stallone. She has shoulder-long black hair and dark brown eyes. She wore a brown leather vest over a muscle shirt, and a pair of grey jeans. She is Nao, one of my friend and the Asian Champion.
"Oh, it's just you. What's up?" I asked her as I slung my backpack consisting of my costume and title duel disk.
"Yo, nice duel out there"
"You came all the way here just to tell me that?"
"Geez… you're a cold one, Rul" she rolled her eyes at my response. "Anko held a party tonight, you know, to celebrate her graduation from college. Wanna come?"
"No, thanks. I got something to do for now, just tell her I said 'congrats'" I said as I walked past her and gone to the parking lot to get my ride.
I got on to my bike once I was in the parking lot. It was a white one-wheeled motorcycle with some reddish orange pattern on it's body. Then I rode off to the street, going back to my apartment. The street were a bit empty tonight, so I sped up my bike to full throttle.
As I was speeding through the street, a green glowing circle suddenly appeared a few meters in front of me. I wanted to hit the brake, but I didn't have the chance to do that and ran into it as it was too close for me to stop completely before it.
"What the hell!?" I asked to no one as I was looking around. I was riding in white nothingness, still on the same speed as before I ran into the green circle. I could swear I hear a girl's voice so I once again look around, this time to find the source of the voice.
As I was looking around, I was struck by a lightning. I yelled in pain as I unconsciously pull the accelerator so my bike gone much faster. As I was recovering, I saw the same green circle appeared right in front of me and again, I went through it.
As soon as I got to the other side of the portal, my monitor showed a girl standing in my path not so far from my position (it was hard to see ahead, so I installed a monitor that connected to a camera right above the front light). I realized that I won't be able to stop without crashing into the girl first, so I tilt my bike sideway to turn right as fast as I can.
And then I crashed
And that's it for now.
As you can see, this chapter is only a prologue. and for my OC, he is a Jack Atlas fan so you can guess what his deck like. but it wont be the exact copy of Jack's deck, instead I used my own deck which is a lil bit inspired by Jack's deck. oh and for his personality, i got to say this, throughout the story, he will have two ways to act. one is his usual self, a kind, helpful and a lil bit tsukkomi. the other one is something I will call acting mode, it is his in-ring persona as the King of the show, cold, calm and prideful person with superiority complex.
Oh and don't mind the Stallone genderbend, she was a character based from my friend. a girl who looked very much like Stallone, LOL
