*Kent, Ohio, USA, Memorial Athletic Convention Center, 11:40 A.M.
On a Sunny Summer Morning, the Convention Center was full of Duelists being Analyzed by representatives from Niagara Falls Duel Academy. All sorts of Duel Monsters were being played by duelists with the hope of trying to get into the Prestigious Duel Academy. A lone duelist sat in the stands, waiting for his name to be called so he could have his chance. He was was an Average guy, with brownish hair. He wore Jeans, a Red T-shirt with a blue diagonal stripe across it, and a Kent State Golden Flashes Hat. He had a duel disk on his arm with his deck all ready to go. The guy's name was Colin Kennat (Age 16).
"Gaaah!" A frustrated Colin moaned. :What is taking so long? ! I want to Duel!"
"You are so Impatient." Another Duelist said as he came up to Colin and sat next to him. He was a guy with dark brown hair and wore glasses, a blue T-shirt and light-brown cargo pants. His name was Jeremy Griffan (Age 16).
"Hey, Jeremiah!" Colin said to his friend. "How'd you're duel go?"
"I won of course." Jeremy happily said. "They're not trying to win, they just duel to evaluate your skills. Depending on how a student's strategy is and how much Life Points you have when the duel is resolved determines-"
"NANANANANA!" Colin interrupted. "You talk too much dude."
Jeremy sighed. There was no way Colin was going to listen to him anyway. He was to thick-headed. Colin continued to watch the duels, he focused on a Girl who was dueling an Instructor. He looked up at the Monitor and saw that the girl's name was Trinity Platinum (Age 15). She was a pretty girl, with long light brown hair and she wore glasses. She was wearing a custom T-shirt with a symbol that looked like a turquoise triangle in a circle with a dot in the middle and a white skirt that reached down to her knees. In her Duel she had a Defender, the Magical Knight (Lv.4 1600/2000) in defense mode and a Tower of Babel Trap Card with 3 Spell counters on the trap. The Instructor had Only a Big Shield Gardna (Lv.4 100/2600) in defense mode and A Spell Final Countdown on turn 12.
"Now It's my move Missy." Instructor said to her. "First I'll sacrifice My Big Shield Gardna for my Legendary Fiend (Lv. 6 1500/1800)! His effect is that during my standby phases he gains 700 attack points, but I won't need to use it's effect because I activate the Spell Raigeki! This destroys any and all monster cards on your field."
A Bolt of Lightning struck Trinity's Defender and destroyed it. "And With no Defense, you fail."
"Hold up!" Trinity stopped him "Since you activate a Spell card, another Spell counter is added to my Tower of Babel Trap. That's 4 spell counters and since you activated the last Spell, you take 3000 points of Damage."
The Tower Of Babel lit up and the Instructor took 3000 points of Damage and his Life points fell to 0.
"Wow," The instructor exhaled. "Congratulations Miss Platinum. I do believe you made it into Niagara Falls Academy."
Colin watched from his seat as the Girl sighed with relief. Colin looked up at the Screen and looked up Trinity and noticed something odd. Next to her Name was some Mixed Letters and Numbers that appeared. ETS 540.
"Hey Jeremy, what the Hell is an ETS?" Colin Asked.
"You mean the Educational Test Scores?" Jeremy questioned. "Those were those written tests we had to take before the duel test. The highest score possible is 1000. I myself got an 980 on it."
-_- "...Nerd."
-_- "...I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that!"
"Anyway, How do I find out my score?" Colin wondered.
"When they're ready for your Duel test your image will appear on the monitor and your score will be next to it." Jeremy told him.
Almost like Magic, when Jeremy said that, Colin's Image appeared on the monitor and his ETS was...
"Wow...15?" Jeremy said trying to hold back the laughter.
O_O "15? !" Colin Exclaimed. "No way! They give 15 for just signing your Name!"
"Actually, they give you 30 for signing your name." Jeremy Corrected.
"Oh Shut up!"
"The only way you are getting into the school now is if you win the special Scholarship."
"What special Scholarship?" Colin Asked.
"You didn't Know? You can get a free pass into the Academy if you can beat the instructor in 5 turns. That being Your turn, his turn, your turn, his turn, and your turn. If it gets another turn, well that's tough for you." Jeremy explained.
"5 turns huh?" Colin smirked. "I can do that!"
"Yeah right, I couldn't even do it." Jeremy told him.
"You just sit tight and Look pretty." Colin said jumping out of his seat. "It'll be over in no time."
Colin Hurried down with his disk and deck, ready for this duel.
3 of Niagara Falls Academy's own Professors; Prof. Muhammed Yusef (Age 32), Prof. Erin Alucard (Age 28), and Prof. Drake Springfield (Age 36), were in an observation booth. They watched and graded the duels of the day. With one last duel to watch, Yusef pulled up the Information on Colin.
"Lets see," he stared looking over the info. "He's a Native to the area, His deck style is Machine and...Oh my...a 15 ETS...oh my lord look at this. In the start of the Math section he just wrote down, 'I am not a Therapist, Solve your own problems' and he skipped the whole thing."
"Why put the poor kid through this?" Prof. Alucard asked. "He is not going to get accepted."
"He can still win a scholarship." Prof. Springfield reminded the both of them.
"Drake, we've watched over 100 duelists today and not one of them has come close to winning that scholarship." Prof. Alucard reminded him. "Why do you think this 'Therapist' Will be different?"
"Hey, he said he Wasn't a Therapist." Prof. Springfield said referring her back to Colins answer for the math section.
"Either way we still have to watch." Prof. Yusef interrupted. "It's the last one, so let's just get this over with."
Colin was ready to go for his Duel against the Instructor. Both had their duel disks ready to go.
(Colin: LP. 4000) (Instructor: LP. 4000)
"Alright Kid." The instructor started. "Let's see what you got. Remember, you only get one chance to impress."
"Yeah Thanks for reminding me." Colin said as he drew his first card. "I Set one card in face down defense position and 1 card face down."
*draws* "I Summon the Archfiend Soldier (Lv.4 1900/1500) and he will attack your face down monster." The Instructor ordered.
The Archfiend soldier drew it's sword and slashed it at Colin's face down monster witch turned out to be Gear Golem the Moving Fortress (Lv.4 800/2200) and Back lash from the attack caused 300 points of damage to the instructor.
(Colin: LP. 4000) (Instructor: LP. 3700)
"Did you know that on a starting turn, a face down monster has a 75% chance of having a higher Defense then the attacker's attack?" Asked as if he was teaching a class.
-_-..."WOW! I had No Idea!" Colin sarcastically said caused he really didn't care.
"I'll now play a Spell, Level Limit – Area B." The Instructor continued with his turn. "Now all Level 4 and higher monsters are switched into Defense mode." The Archfiend Solider was switched into defense mode due to the effect of the spell. "And I'll set one card face down and end my turn."
*That's 2 Turns already...* Colin thought as he drew his next card. *I really need to go on the Attack, if I want that scholarship.* "I Sacrifice my Gear Golem to Summon my Spell Canceller (Lv.5 1800/1600). And With Spell Canceller out, your Level Limit spell is negated. Now Spell Canceller attack his Archfiend."
Spell Canceller charged up a Beam and fired it at the Archfiend Soldier and it destroyed it.
"And that's all I can do." Colin ended his turn.
The instructor draws his card. "I activate the Trap A Rival Appears! I can select a Monster on your side of the field and summon a monster with the same level from my hand and I summon Cyber-Tech Alligator (Lv.5 2500/1600) And it will attack and Destroy your Spell Canceller."
The Cyber-Tech Alligator Swung its Claws at Spell Canceller, slashed it and destroyed it inflicting Colin with 700 points of Damage.
"Now that your Spell Canceller is Gone, My Level Limit is active again and My Alligator switches into defense mode." The instructor arrogantly instructed. "Your move."
Colin took a deep breath as he drew his next card and looked at his hand. *4 turns...* he thought *...this is my last chance. Alright here goes.* "I Activate Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your Level Limit – Area B."
A Mystical Typhoon engulfed the Spell card and destroyed it.
"Now Since you have a Monster on my side of the Field and I don't," he continued. "I can Special Summon my Cyber Dragon (Lv. 5 2100/1500). Then I summon the Red-eyes Black Chick (Lv.1 800/500). Now I can send my chick to the Graveyard to Summon one Red-eyes Black Dragon (Lv.7 2400/2000) from my Hand. Now Red-eyes will attack with Inferno Fire Blast."
The Red-eyes Black Dragon shot a massive ball of fire which engulfed the Cyber-Tech Alligator and destroyed it.
"Now before I attack with my Cyber Dragon, I activate my Face down. Limiter Removal! This Will Double the attack of my Machine Monster."
The Cyber Dragon started to glow as its attack was doubled to 4200.
"And that Means I WIN! Attack With Strident Blaze!"
The Cyber Dragon shot a stream of White Energy out of its mouth that struck the Instructor directly, dropping his Life points to 0!
(Colin: LP. 4000) (Instructor: LP. 0)
"Niagara Falls Duel Academy, here I come." Colin said with a smile as he looked up at the score bored on more time as it announced he won the scholarship.
From their Observation Booth, the Professors had watched the quick duel. Prof. Yusef was surprised, Prof. Alucard was in shock and Disbelief, and Prof. Springfield didn't seemed as sour faced as there other two.
"Didn't I tell you?" Prof. Springfeild asked with a smug tone.
"NO!" Prof. Alucard exclaimed in denial. "I refuse to let that Juvenile into our school."
"We have to now." Yusef reminded her. "He won the scholarship."
"We should not allow in a failure of a student into the most prestigious Duel Academy in North America all because of DUMB LUCK!" Prof. Alucard ferociously protested.
"Erin, in this card game, dumb luck is far more important than you think." Professor Springfield said as he got up out of his chair and left the room, but not before looking out the window at all the duelist who had participated in the entrance exams today. There were close to a thousand, but only a handful would make it into the academy. Professor Springfield then looked down and saw Colin back with his friend Jeremy and Colin was apparently acting all high and mighty and gloating while Jeremy largely ignored him. "It's going to be a fun year."
