This is my first Arc-V Fic! ENJOY!
In a city...
A city was busy, and working with everything they do everyday. But this story isn't about the city. No this story is about a young duelist. A young duelist that mastered the basics of Fusion, Xyz, Synchro, and Ritual Summoning. However despite that there was still one type of summoning that eluded this young duelist. The newest form of summoning, Pendulum Summoning. He had wanted to master it but his parents held budget comebacks that he was unable to do it. As a result he was the only duelist in the city that had yet to master it, and as a result he had yet to win any duels.
"You lose again!"
A kid drooped down, as his opponent laughed "And that's what you get for not mastering the use of Pendulum." "It's not my fault." the kid replied. "Besides, I'm the one who helped you with Synchro and Xyz." "That doesn't excuse you not able to Pendulum Summon." His opponent laughed. "Knock it off, you only won because you kept Pendulum Summoning every round." stated a boy. "That's hardly a fair match." "Who cares about being fair. Now pay up!" The opponent scoffed holding his hand out.
"I can't, I spent all my money on those new Synchro monsters." the kid answered. "Well then." He grabbed the kid, as everyone tensed as the opponent smirked "I'm gonna have fun with this."
"That's enough!"
They looked, and saw some kid wearing a black sweater, has short green hair, while having fine jearns and sunglassess. "What do you want?" he asked. "I want you to leave him alone. You hear what he said 'You kept Pendulum Summoning every round'. It's not his fault he can't do it." He replied. "Everyone can Pendulum Summon, if he can't that isn't my problem." he mentioned. "It is." He walked to them. Then he said "Duel me." "Fine, this won't take long at all." he noted confidently.
"Name's Yuya by the way." The kid said. "You are?" "I'm Sawatari, and I'm the greatest duelist there is." Sawatari bragged. "And who was that kid you just beat?" Yuya asked activating his Duel Disk. "Why don't you ask him yourself since you're about to lose too." Sawatari stated. Yuya looked at the downed kid who said "Leo."
"Well Leo, I am gonna show him wrong. You can win duels without Pendulum Summoning. And I will use your deck to prove it." Yuya said, as he took Leo's deck, and shuffle it. "Winning without Pendulum Summoning? You must be insane." Sawatari stated. "We'll see who the insane one is." Yuya said.
"DUEL!"
(Dueling Theme: Hero by Skillet)
Yuya: 4000
Sawatari: 4000
Let the duel begin!
Yuya checked over his hand, and thought 'He got some sweet cards. I wonder how he kept losing when he can be the best no problem. Maybe he wasn't using it right.'
"Why not you go first?" Yuya offered.

"If you want to lose so quickly who am I to object, now I'll start with Hand Destruction." Sawatari said.

"Is that supposed to frighten me, that's the same move Leo made on his first turn." Sawatari commented. "If that's the best you can do this will be over in no time." "I'm not done. Next I will play Mystical Space Typhoon on your face-down. Let's see what your hiding." Yuya said, as fierce winds rushed to it's target.
Mystical Space Typhoon
Quick-Play Spell Card

"So what if you destroyed my Dragon's Rage trap, it still won't change the outcome of our duel." Sawatari shrugged. "Hydrogeddon attack one of his Luster Dragons!" Yuya cried.
Hydrogrddon attacked, as it destroyed one of the Dragons, as Sawatari only smirked. (Sawatari: 3700) "Since Hydrogeddon destroyed a monster I get to summon another." Yuya said as another Muddy dino appeared. (ATK: 2200 - 300 = 1900) "So you have two of those things, on my turn Luster Dragon will come back and then I'll get rid of both of those weaklings." Sawatari taunted.
"I ain't done. I now overlay the two Hydrogeddons!" The two dinos glowed blue, as they went into a portal as Yuya cried "Xyz Summon! Appear Blade Armor Ninja!" What emerged was a ninja with two Katanas on it's back.

"Now Exploder Dragon attack his Blade Armor Ninja. Cannon Ball Clash." "Oh no! Exploder Dragon may lose but Blade Armor Ninja will be destroyed!" Leo cried to Yuya. Exploder Dragon attacked as it destroyed Blade Armor Ninja as Yuya doesn't look worried.
"Now then, I'm aware of your Amazoness Swords Woman's ability but it won't make a difference. I attack your Swords Woman with my first Luster Dragon and attack directly with my other two." The first dragon attacked the Swords Woman. (Sawatari: 3300) The other two charged their blasts, and fired their flame breaths that hit Yuya dead on. (Yuya: 0200) "I think that's enough for now."
Yuya 2nd Turn:

"Are you that stupid, Sparkman isn't even close to powerful enough to beat my dragons." Sawatari pointed out. "Oh, I know what's going on. You must have realized how pathetic that deck is so you're throwing the match to try and avoid the embarrassment." "No I now activate Super Polymerization!" Everyone's eyes widen at what he just said.
Super Polymerization
Quick-Play Spell Card

"What did you just say?" Sawatari questioned. "He has Super Polymerization in his deck?" Yuya said "I discard my card, Volcanic Counter to fuse Sparkman with one of your Pendulum Summoned, Luster Dragons! With that since this doesn't count as your dragon being destroyed, it stays in your Graveyard!" "That's wonderful, so what monster are you summoning then?" Sawatari asked.
The two fused as Yuya cried "Fusion Summon! Appear First of the Dragons!" A long body purple dragon appeared roaring.

"So what, that monster isn't strong enough to change the outcome of the duel." Sawatari noted only to anxiously take a step back. "First of the Dragons time to set the stage, and bring out a great performance!" Leo caught on what Yuya just said, as he thought 'Is he... no that can't be but...' "Now then attack the Luster Dragon summoned by Triggered Summon!" Yuya cried as the Dragon chomped on it. (Sawatari: 2500) "Are you finished yet?" Sawatari questioned.
"Yes. See how you can wage a comeback." Yuya said.
Yuya: 0200
Sawatri: 2500

"You thought you were so tough, but you'll learn your place. Destroy that First of the Dragons!" A large blast was heard as Yuya lost 100 points. (Yuya: 0100) "Haha not so tough now." Sawatari smirked. Yuya however pointed up. They looked up seeing that First of the Dragons looking angered was still there. "What, how is your dragon still here?" Sawatari asked nervously. "Mine has more attack points so it should have destroyed that thing."
"It can only be destroyed by a normal monster." Yuya explained. "Hey Leo, I don't get why you win with this deck. For not having Pendulum cards you can totally cream this guy at this time." "What did you just say?" Sawatari said angrily. "He could never beat me, and you never will either."
Leo looked at Yuya surprised, as Yuya smiled ignoring Sawatari's angry comment, "I mean it. If you beat him, no problem. This deck is strong without any Pendulum cards, and it will be enough to beat this punk." "Fine, if you're so confident prove it." Sawatari challenged. "I have no other cards in my hand so I'll end my turn."
Yuya 3rd Turn:

"I play Decrease!" Yuya cried playing the spell.

Yuya cried "And I activate it's special ability!" Dark End Dragon opened it's jaw abdomen as Yuya smirked "By ditching 500 of it's attack, and defense points it can destroy a monster you control!"
"It what!?" Sawatari asked shocked. "You heard me, Dark End Dragon destroy Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon!" Yuya declared. Dark End Dragon started a wind storm as it swallowed the enemy dragon as it burped a bit. (ATK: 2600 - 500 = 2100/DEF: 1600 - 500 = 1100) "You haven't won, I can take this hit and beat you on my next turn." Sawatari mentioned.
Jun 27"Oh really. Even when I play this, Sword of Dark Destruction that gives him 400 attack points, and loses 200 defense points?" Yuya asked smirking as the Dragon powered up. (ATK: 2100 + 400 = 2500/DEF: 1100 - 100 = 900)
Sword of Dark Destruction
Equip Spell Card
A DARK monster equipped with this card increases its ATK by 400 points and decreases its DEF by 200 points.
"Wait... You can't do that." Sawatari panicked seeing Dark End Dragon has enough attack points to finish him off. Yuya smirked as he cried "Dark End Dragon wait on my signal!" Dark End Dragon got ready as Sawatari cried "This can't be!" "Now... CHARGE!" Yuya cried. At that Dark End Dragon flew as he tackled Sawatari as he screamed as he landing on his back ending the duel.
Yuya: 0100
Sawatari: 0000
Yuya wins the duel!
"That was amazing." Leo said in awe. "My deck can really do something like that?" "Yes." He looked at Yuya, who said "If you practice hard enough, and duel hard enough and do plans like that you can do anything with it." He handed Leo his deck back. "Thanks." Leo said.
"Argh! Cheater!" Yuya, and Leo looked at Sawatri who was stomping to them while he yelled "Cheater! Their is no way a Pendulum less deck can beat my surperior monsters! You cheated!" "He didn't cheat, everything he did was completely fair." Leo argued. "Oh you think so!?" He snatched Leo's deck. "Hey, what do you think you're doing?" Yuya questioned. "Sloving this problem." Sawatari walked to somewhere as Leo gasped in horror, as Sawatari cried "Say goodbye to this cheating deck!" He threw it to the ocean as Leo, and Yuya ran over and Leo cried "NO!"
"HEY! Why did you do that!?" Yuya demanded. "To get rid of an embarrasement." Sawatari grinned like mad a card as he said "Not this one." He started laughing while walking away "After all Super Polymerization is not a common card in these parts!" "Hey, that's taking it kind of far Sawatari." stated the same boy who called continuous Pendulum Summoning unfair. "I mean it's one thing to win but that was his deck."
"Oh shut it." Sawatari scoffed. Yuya glared at Sawatari saying "Oh why that sniving little...!" He was about to charge at him but Leo whimpered "No..." He looked to see that Leo crying his eyes out as he sobbed "I put my heart into building that deck. Now it's gone." "Please, if you put your heart into that piece of cheating garbage you should be happy I got rid of it for you." Sawatari said. "As for you, don't think I'll be forgetting this anytime soon."
As soon as he said that, Sawatari walked off.
Yuya glared as he looked to see Leo dropping to his knees still crying. "Hey, are you going to be alright?" asked a girl who had been watching the whole duel. "Maybe we can help you build a new deck." "No. I don't want you guys getting invloved. I think... I can just..." Leo's crying was stopping him from saying anything further. Yuya's face soften as he pulled Leo in a hug who gave in.
"Hey Yuya right?" the girl asked. "Yeah." Yuya nodded. "Do you think you could beat Sawatari again?" the girl requested. "Ever since he learned how to Pendulum Summon he's been calling everyone else a waste of time, he actually beat me a few days ago and well..." As she said that the girl revealed two cards, a Harpie Dancer, and Monster Reborn.
"I don't think you need me to tell you what happened to the rest of my deck."
Yuya looked angered, as he asked "What is with that guy anyway?" He stood up, as he told her "Sorry but I can't stay. I have to go back home. You need help getting back home Leo?"
"Y-Yes..." Leo nodded, as Yuya helped him up. Yuya told the girl "But I promise someone will stop him." "I hope you're right, he used to be one of my best friends but then he turned into this." the girl replied sadly.
An hour later...
Yuya was helping Leo walk back, as Leo asked out of the blue "Hey uh Yuya..." "What is it Leo?" Yuya asked. "You wouldn't happen to be... Yuya Sakaki?" Leo asked.
Yuya froze a bit of a second before chuckling "Guess my disguise wasn't good enough? What gave me away?" "What you said earlier... 'First of the Dragons time to set the stage, and bring out a great performance!'." Leo answered to him. "I guess the cat's out of the bag huh?" Yuya asked.
Leo nodded. Yuya sighed before saying "Listen I am not the Yuya Sakaki you heard about. I am the future counterpart of him." "Future?" Leo asked. "Yes. Listen what you heard about the end of Arc-V well let's say that didn't happen exactly." Yuya started. Leo asked, "What do you mean?" "An evil had changed what happened, and everything collapsed in ruins. What you heard about was only a replacment on what happened. The only way on how everything will be right is by someone from this world would help us. How many episodes of Arc-V have you seen?" Yuya asked.
Leo answered "Two." While pointing out with two fingers.
Hearing that Yuya sighed. "Then we have a lot of work to do." "But enough of that. Here's your home." Yuya said as they see them. But they saw the place was being populated by police, as Yuya asked "Hey officer what's going on?" "There had been a shooting. And the people inside didn't make it." The officer said. Leo looked down, as Yuya kneeled as he said "Sorry about your loss Leo."
"We're working as hard as we can to find out who did this son." said the officer. "I promise we'll do everything we can." "I'm... I'm alone..." Leo clinged to Yuya, as he cried "It's not fair!" "I know what you mean." Yuya answered hugging Leo as memories of the destruction replayed in his mind. A ring got Yuya's attention as he answered "Hello?"
"Yuya we're barely hanging on do you got who we need to help our present selfs?" A girl's voice asked him. "I hope so, we'll be there as soon as we can." Yuya answered. "Leo, can you help?" "He-Help on what?" Leo asked him. "Saving me and all of my friends, and preventing the end of the world." Yuya answered. "Huh? But I... I am just a kid! I don't know much of your world!" Leo protested.
"I know, but nobody from my world can do it. It has to be someone from yours, and right now you're the only one it can be." Yuya explained. Leo asked him "Is I possible I can Pendulum Summon there?"
"I don't know. For all I know you might invent your own time of summoning, I did after all." Yuya admitted. Leo thought about it, before nodding "I'll do it!" "That's what I wanted to hear." Yuya said before placing a card in his duel disc as a flash of light enveloped the two of them.
They reappeared in some sort of bunkhouse as Leo looked around surprised. "Where are we?" He asked. "I think a better question would be who are you?" questioned a male voice. "Calm down Yuto, it's just Yuya." replied a female voice.
"You never can be too careful Zuzu." Yuto noted. "So I'll ask again Yuya, who is he?" "I'm Yuya, and you are his Xyz Counterpart." Yuya rolled his eyes. "I meant who did you bring with you? You know how dangerous it is to just bring strangers here." Yuto stated. "That's how we lost Declan and Celina." "This is who I chose." Yuya said.
Leo looked at them before seeing a blonde hair, and a sliver hair teen as he thought 'Kite, and Aster are here?' "This is who you bring? He is a 8 year old Yuya." The blonde hair kid called Kite told Yuya in what sounds like frustration. "I don't know, when I was his age I was already quite the skilled duelist. Or have you forgotten Aster." noted a purple haired boy.
"No I didn't Yuri. But he looks like a normal kid." Aster told them. Leo looked down, a bit shy as he asked "Uh... hello I'-" "And he's shy too!" Kite cried that startled Leo as he kid behind Yuya. "Is now really the time for this?" Zuzu questioned. "If Yuya trusts him that should be enough for you." "She has a point, and besides at this point what's the worst thing that could happen. He's from the other world so at the very least he stands a better chance than any of us." noted a boy with blue hair and a lollipop in his mouth.
"Um... hi. My-My name is Leo nice to meet you all." Leo tried his best to greet. "It's a pleasure to make your..." Yuri started before pausing. "Yuya, please tell me you didn't bring someone who can't duel." "He can. But some bully threw his deck to an ocean, and stole his Super Polymerization card." Yuya told him. "Super Polymerization, a duelist after my own heart." Yuri stated calmly.
"So because of some moron he doesn't even have cards to use?" Kite questioned. "It's fine, we should have just enough spares to make a deck he can use." Yuya explained. "Uh... excuse me Mr. Yuri but I am not just a Fusion Summoner." Leo told Yuri. Yuya added "Yeah he also had some Xyz, and Synchro cards."
"I am also a Ritual Summoner." Leo added. "Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, and Ritual?" Aster asked in shock. "That's incredible, not even Yuya mastered all of those." "Aster now's not the time." Yuya told him.
Another blonde kid said "Well since we're all in this I guess we should give him cards each of those Summoning Mechanics along with a few Pendulum." "I was just saying it's impressive. He just might be able to pull it off after all." Aster explained. "Though yeah that's probably a good idea Yugo." "But their is a slight problem. He only seen two of the episodes, of Arc-V." Yuya told them with a sweat-drop.
"...WHAT!?" everyone questioned simultaneously.
Leo hid back behind Yuya who winced. "Yeah, Yeah I know very bad." Yuya tried to reason. "Very bad? VERY BAD!?" Kite questioned. "Yuya, this could mean all of us die. You were supposed to find someone who could help us and instead..."
Instead of finishing his sentence Kite grabbed his duel disc and walked off. Leo asked Yuya "...Is... Is Kite okay?" "He'll be fine, but someone should go out with him just to be on the safe side." Yuya replied. "Yeah, you're right." Yuto agreed before following Kite. "Yuya you brought someone who has poor knowlegde about us!?" Aster cried angered.
"It wouldn't have changed anything, his world wouldn't know the truth anyway." Yuya replied. "They think everything ended on a positive note and I beat Reiji in a final match." "That doesn't excuse it!" Aster cried. Zuzu agreed "Yeah, we needed someone who knows about us a lot, but he doesn't know some of us!"
"I didn't say it did, but what other choice did I have?" Yuya questioned. "Besides, there's something else about him. I can't really explain it but he's the best chance we have of making it out of this alive." Yuri sighed "You better hope your right. I am agreeing with you on this because he does have Super Polymerization before that fool stole it from him."
Something banged on the door. "So, this is where you've been hiding." hissed a voice from outside. "Which one of you wants to perish first?" Leo asked "Who...who said that?" "It's one of them, well we don't have time to waste so here." Yuri mentioned before handing Leo his deck. "If you're as good as Yuya says you'll win, and if not... Well just make sure you are." Leo took the deck, as the door was banged on starling him.
"Come out and face your death or I'll have to come in and kill you myself." stated the voice from outside.
"Don't worry. We're here with you." Yuya told Leo.
Leo nodded. "Well, here goes nothing." Leo said nervously before opening the door to reveal a black creature with horns, wings, and glowing yellow eyes. "Huh? You? Hehehe please. You'll be easy to kill!" Leo shuddered before looking serious, and saying "I challenge you!" "You, you're challenging me?" the creature questioned before starting to laugh. "Why not, I've been bored out of my mind for a while. I accept your pathetic challenge."
They got ready as Leo thought 'What kind of deck does Mr. Yuri use?'

"Now attack Zoa! Mechanized Melee!" The Golem gave out a punch. "I play my trap card Hate Buster." The Creature countered. "This trap activates when you attack a Fiend-Type monster like my Zoa, it destroys both of our monsters and then you take damage equal to your Gear Golem's attack points."
"Sorry but whenever Ancient Gear Golem attacks you can't activate any spells, or trap until the end of the damage step!" Leo informed him. "What!?" the creature questioned as Zoa was destroyed. (Creature: 3600) "Haha maybe you did gave us someone to help us after all." Yuri told Yuya. "Maybe, but the duel isn't over yet." Aster pointed out.
"I set a face-down. Your turn." Leo told him.
Leo: 4000
Creature: 3600
Creature 3rd Turn:
"So you got lucky, big deal. I switch Baron of the Fiend Sword into defense mode and then I activate Cursed Fiends." the creature said.
Cursed Fiends
Continuous Spell Card
All Fiend-Type monsters you control cannot be destroyed by battle, and all damage is reduced to zero. During each Stand-By Phase discard the top card of your deck, or destroy this card. When this card is destroyed you opponent Special Summons monsters from their Graveyard until all five zones are occupied ignoring Summoning Conditions.
"This spell card prevents you from destroying any fiend type monsters on my field and any damage is reduced to zero. The only catch is I have to discard the top card of my deck... Or I would if not for the magic card Demon's Curse which transfers that effect to you and deals 200 points of damage every time one of your cards is sent to the graveyard."
Demon's Curse
Continuous Spell Card
Activate only if you control 1 "Cursed Fiends". Your opponent does the effect instead, and turns to not optional, then inflict 200 damage each time this effect is used. If "Cursed Fiends" leaves the field destroy this card.
"So what you saying... is that I have to give up the top card of my deck, and I get 200 points of damage every time to do it?" Leo asked. "Exactly." the creature answered. "And there is no way I can avoid it?" Leo asked his eyes widening in horror. "Of course there isn't, these two magic cards are going to ensure your death." the creature said gleefully. Leo whimpered as he thought 'That's gonna be tough to go through. Even if Golem's ability to do pirecing damage that wouldn't do anything! Wait... if Dr. Crowler has Heavy Storm in his Ancient Gear Deck, maybe Mr. Yuri does too. I just gotta believe!'
"Is that it?" Leo asked him. "For now." the creature answered coldly.
Leo 3rd Turn:
Leo drew, as he looked at his hand, and said "I end my turn." Having no option for now. "Aren't you forgetting something?" the creature questioned. "No." Leo showed the top card, a Polymerization card before sending it to his grave as he yelped a bit feeling a bit of pain. (Leo: 3800)
Leo: 3800
Creature: 3600
Creature 4th Turn:
"Good, then it's my turn again." the creature said. "Though I'll just end my turn, the look of slow agony as your life slips away from you is too much to ignore."
Leo 4th Turn:
Leo drew, as he said "End." Before sending the top card which was an Ancient Gear Castle before yelping a bit. (Leo: 3600) "What's he waiting for, the longer he waits the less likely he'll be able to win this duel." Aster mentioned. "He must be waiting for something, but what?" Yuya questioned.
Leo: 3600
Creature: 3600
Creature 5th Turn:
"My move, and end turn again." The creature laughed.
Leo 5th Turn:
Leo drew, "End." Before discarding Ancient Gear Solider as he yelped. (Leo: 3400) "This is bad, what could he possibly be waiting for?" Zuzu asked. 'Wait a second.' Yuri thought. "Leo, that card isn't in that deck!" "It's not?" Leo asked in shock. "No, but there is still a way for you to beat him." Yuri said looking at the cards in Leo's hand. "You're just missing the last piece." 'Last piece? What is he talking about...?' Leo thought looking at this hand.
"You know what he was waiting for?" Aster asked Yuri.
"Heavy Storm, the Honor Student deck is based on a modified version of one of the numerous decks the Professor keeps under lock and key." Yuri explained. "Alongside that deck are an Elemental Hero deck, a Cyber Dragon deck, and a Crystal Beast deck among several others." "What does Heavy Storm do?" Yugo asked him. "It destroys every spell and trap card on the field." Yuri answered. "What!? Then if Leo would draw it he would have beaten that fiend. But it doesn't have it!?" Yuya asked shocked.
"No, but it does have something that should be even more useful against that thing." Yuri noted with a smirk. "Ancient Gear Engineer." Leo looked at his hand, 'I don't see what that piece is... wait...'
Flashback:
A young Leo was watching a duel as a blonde hair teacher that looks like a woman cried "Whenever Ancient Gear Engineer attacks a spell, or trap on your field is destroyed! There goes your preicous Gulliver Chain!"
"Sweet! Your on a role!" Leo cried.
Flashback End:
'That's it! That's must be the piece Mr. Yuri was talking about. I don't got it now. But maybe I will soon.' Leo thought.
Creature 6th Turn:
"Are you done wasting my time?" the creature asked. "Go ahead and make your move so I can put an end to this duel."
Leo 6th Turn:
Leo drew, as he thinks "Here goes! Please let it be it!" He looked seeing it was... Ancient Gear Engineer. "YES! I sacrifice Ancient Gear Golem, to summon Ancient Gear Engineer!" The Golem vanished as what appeared was a machine that has a drill for a hand.

At the end of the Damage Step, if this card attacked: Target 1 Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls; destroy that target.
"What was the point of that move, your new monster is weaker than your Ancient Gear Golem." the creature noted. "True but whenever he attacks... a spell, and trap on your field is gone!" Leo gave out a smirk. "What!? No you can't be serious about that!" the creature panicked. 'If this brat destroys Cursed Fiends not only will my monsters be vulnerable but he'll be able to bring back every monster in his graveyard!'
"Oh I am! Care for a demonstration! Oh Engineer give him one! Attack Baron!" Leo cried, as the Engineer attacks, as Cursed Fiends vanished, while the Baron survived but something was shocking. Ancient Gear Golem, Ancient Gear Solider, and Ancient Gear Wyvern appeared surprising everyone besides the creature. Leo asked "Hey what just happened?"
"When Cursed Fiends is destroyed every monster in your graveyard returns to the field." the creature explained nervously. "Plus now that Cursed Fiends is gone Demon's Curse is destroyed as well."
Leo smiled, as he said "Guess you should've tried to finish when you had the chance. But even when Golem attacks you will still be around. But not for long, I activate Polymerization!"
Polymerization

Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters from your hand or field as Fusion Materials.

During battle between this attacking card and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent. If this card attacks, your opponent cannot activate Spell or Trap Cards until the end of the Damage Step. If this card is destroyed, you can Special Summon 1 "Ancient Gear Golem" from your Graveyard, ignoring the Summoning conditions.
"4400 attack points?" the creature panicked. "More than enough! Ultimate Gear Golem attack that Baron, and end this duel! Pularizing Mechanized Meele!" The Golem attacked by slamming it's arm down on Baron.
"Wait, but my monster is in defense mode." the creature pointed out. "Just like Gear Golem whenever Ultimate Golem attacks a monster in defense mode the diffrence gets cut from your Life Points! So that id 3900 points heading your way, and your having most of a 2% chance to survive. Good Luck!" Leo gave a thumbs up.
The moment Leo gave the thumbs up Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem destroyed Baron of the Fiend Sword and wiped out the creature's life points causing it to scream in agony before exploding into black smoke and ashes.
Leo: 3400
Creature: 0000
Leo wins the duel!
"Impressive, maybe there's hope for us after all." Kite noted walking up to Leo. "AH!" Leo jumped startled, before he sighed "You nearly gave me a heart attack Mr. Kite." "Well now that you've met one of them its about time we tell you what's going on." Yuto mentioned. "What IS going on? And how come Aster, and Kite are in the Arc-V anime? And who are those guys?" Leo asked pointing at the boy with the lollypop, Yuri, Yugo, Yuto, and the big man.
"Right, only two episodes. This could take a while." Kite admitted.
(One Arc-V summary later.)
"So Mr. Yuri, Mr. Yuto, and Mr. Yugo are different incarnations of Mr. Yuya from each summoning mechanic, Kite, and Aster are from those Dimensions, and those two there are name Sora, and Gong?" Leo asked now getting it. "That pretty much sums it up, and for some reason we were separated again but all of Zarc's power stayed in his dragon form." Yuto answered before looking down. "Shun, and Moon Shadow gave their lives to get us our dragons back so we might have a fighting chance."
"And this Zarc. Is he the true main villain of Arc-V?" Leo asked. "No, whoever separated him from us is." Yuya answered. "It happened just before Riley..." They looked down, as Leo understood their pain. He then asked "What do I need to do?" "We need to stop Zarc from destroying the four dimensions, and find out who caused all of this and take them down." Yuto replied.
"And the only way to find out is by you helping the present. If you can find out what really happened, then we can take him down." Yuya told him. Leo said "I need a deck. Oh you know that reminds me... Here Mr. Yuri." He gave Yuri back his Ancient Gear Deck. "Keep it, I can use my Predaplants." Yuri mentioned calmly.
Leo nodded, as Yugo said "Well we got the Fusion down. We need to get him Synchro, and Xyz. And a but of Pendulum." "Synchro and Xyz won't be easy, but Declan can handle the Pendulum cards." Sora mentioned. "He just needs to find some." "I will try to. So where I'm I starting?" Leo asked.
Zuzu answered "From the begining. Episode 1 of Arc-V. Our present selfs won't recognized you, so be sure to act like you don't know them, and don't help Yuya on Pendulum Summoning, and here." She gave him a watch saying "That watch will tell you is their is a distortian of history, and you need to correct it."
"But won't that make me a target?" Leo asked. "Not if you're subtle." Sora answered. "Good luck Leo, we're counting on you." Yuya mentioned. "I will. I don't know what's waiting. But I'll try. I already lost my deck, and my parents. But their is no way I am letting them take my new friends!" Leo cried. As Leo said that a flash of light enveloped him. "Well then. See ya!" After that Leo vanished.
Kite then asked "So what now?" "Now, we hope that he pulls it off." Aster answered quietly.
Somewhere else...
A scream was heard before Leo fell in a ally. "Ow... Someone may want to put safety of that thing." Leo groaned. "Hey, what are you doing here?" asked a young boy. "There's an Action Duel going on right now." '"Action Du- Oh oh yes. Can you please guide me to it, I am a bit lost." Leo asked politely.
"Sure thing, I was heading that way anyway." the boy said. They were heading their way into an arena, as Leo asked "What's the match-up?" "Yuya Sakaki vs the Sledgehammer." the boy answered.
'That is the first episode duel.' Leo thought.
They made it, and they are seeing the duel.

"Come on, the duel already started." the boy mentioned before walking over and finding two seats to watch the match. "Oh I am Leo by the way." Leo said. "Nice to meet you Leo, I'm Joe." the boy replied before turning towards the duel. Yuya was wearing some kind of jester outfit, and was riding a hippo before he drew, and cried "Oh yeah!"
'This is it, he's about to summon it.' Leo thought excitedly.
Yuya's face appear on the screen as he cried "Your attention please! My next move is about to be a show stopper! As some of you may know, if I tribute my Hip Hippo right now it will count as two monsters!" Yuya got off as the Hippo ran out, as Yuya said "It's one of Hip Hippo's favorite tricks! Go for it buddy!" The Hippo jumped.
The Hippo vanished as Yuya was falling down, but he cried "Now please welcome..." He took off the Jester outfit showing his real outfit before saying "Out main attraction! One of the wonders of the Dragon world, the main spectacular, Odd-Eyes Dragon!" A red, and white dragon, with green eyes, and a gold head piece appeared roaring.

"Here comes the fun part!" Yuya called out as he landed on Odd-Eyes Dragon's back. "Don't you repeat your spineless old man's words." the Sledgehammer stated.
"My dad wasn't scared of you!" Yuya cried offended.
"Oh?" The Sledgehammer asked a bit interested.
"He would've beaten you easy, and I'll prove it by taking you down all the moves my dad taught me!" Yuya told him.
The Sledgehammer however said "Grr... you keep talking about game but your monsters attacks points, cannot lay a claw on Battleguard King!"
Leo trying to act like he doesn't know Yuya, asked Joe "Hey Joe, what do you know of Yuya Sakaki?" "Actually not much, but his dad was the greatest dueltainer ever, Yusho Sakaki." Joe replied. "Well at least he was supposed to be before he ran away."
"Ran away? What happened?" Leo asked him. "Nobody knows, he just disappeared one day." Joe replied. "Some people say it's because he's a coward but if that's true he wouldn't fly around all the time would he?"
"If Yuya is like his daddy, then he can't run." Leo told Joe.
Yuya smirked at what the Sledgehammer said before saying "But after I use this spell here, it would be a different story! Wonder Balloons!"
Wonder Balloons
Continuous Spell Card
You can send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard; place 1 counter on this card. You can send this card to the Graveyard, then target 1 monsteryour opponent controls; that target loses 1000 ATK for each counter that was on this card, until the end of this turn.
The moment Yuya activated that card, a box with question marks on it appeared in front of Battleguard King while Yuya ran around the field grabbing Action Cards and sending them to his graveyard.
"What's he doing?" Leo asked. "I don't know, I've never seen that card before." Joe answered before Yuya stopped and the box opened revealing three balloons.
"Each time I send a card in my hand to the graveyard Wonder Balloon adds one more Balloon, and then by sending Wonder Balloon to the graveyard one of your monsters loses 1000 attack points for each balloon." Yuya explained before snapping as the Wonder Balloon card was destroyed. "So Battleguard King loses 3000 attack points, bringing him down to zero."
The smoke cleared revealing that Battleguard King was trapped in balloons. (ATK: 3000 - 3000 = 0)
"Whoa! That sure is a show stopper!" Leo cried trying to act excited. "Yeah, and now Yuya has a huge advantage." Joe agreed. "Action duels are always so much fun to watch." "Now I see that you've been playing games with me from the very beginning." The Sledgehammer said a bit annoyed that his monster's attack points are all for naught.
Yuya held up a crystal as he said "It was risky but, I knew the duel would swing my way." Soon everyone was cheering for him. Yuya thought smiled 'The crowd's got my back, just like how they got my dad's during his duels!' "Alright Odd-Eyes, let's excite the crowd even more!" Yuya called. "When Odd-Eyes Dragon destroys a level 5 or above monster, you take half of that monsters attack points as damage."
"Huh? Half of Battleguard King's original attack points equals to 1500. If I lose another 2500 points from the damage... the result would be catastrophic!" The Sledgehammer realized adding the total points of damage he'll take from the attack.
Yuya grinned while saying "I can end this duel in one blast. Alright Odd-Eyes! Get set to strike take down, Battleguard King! Sprial Flame!" As Yuya said that, Odd-Eyes Dragon launched a stream of red fire towards Battleguard King enveloping it in flames.
"He won." Joe said excitedly only for the flames and smoke to clear revealing Battleguard King survived the attack. "Huh? How did he survive?" Leo asked surprised. "That was a nice try, but I used the same card you did." the Sledgehammer explained. "The Action Spell Miracle."
Miracle
Action Spell Card
If a monster on the field battles: Target that monster; it cannot be destroyed by that battle, also any battle damage is halved.
"Miracle?" Leo asked. Joe nodded, "Yeah, it keeps your monster protected, and halves all damage. Seems like he was keeping it just in case something like this happens. And since Odd-Eyes failed to destroy Battleguard King it's special ability didn't go through." (The Sledgehammer: 2750) 'Those Action Cards are really useful, I need to remember them.' Leo thought.
The Sledgehammer then backed up, "Since I took damage I now activate this card here! Battleguard Rage! It raises Battleguard King's attack points by 2000!" (ATK: 0 + 2000 = 2000)
Battleguard Rage
Normal Trap Card
When you take battle damage: Activate this card by targeting 1 "Battleguard" monster you control. It gains 2000 ATK. Monsters destroyed by battle with it are returned to the hand instead of going to the Graveyard. When that monster leaves the field, destroy this card.
Hearing a sudden beep, Leo looked at the watch Zuzu gave him seeing it was beeping red. 'What's this... whoaaaaaa!' He then sees something.
Distortion in History:
While the two were dueling something was falling, and hit Yuya which would cause some broken bones.
Distortion End:
Leo shook his head, 'That never happened!' "Hey, are you alright?" Joe asked. "Your watch just started beeping, is something wrong with it?" "Oh uh... it's nothing. It's just that it is a reminder you know like an alarm/" Leo asked him. "Oh, alright then." Joe mentioned turning back to the duel. "I end my turn." Yuya said in frustration before the Wonder Balloon card wore off and Battleguard King regained its attack points. (ATK: 2000 + 3000 = 5000)
Leo thought 'I need to find it! But where?' He looked around before spotting something, one part of the duel machine is loose. 'When Battleguard King attacks, that piece will fell and hit Yuya! How can I stop it?' Leo thought wondering how he can stop this Distortion. "I'll make you regret challenging me." the Sledgehammer stated before Yuya turned and started running off on Odd-Eyes Dragon. "You won't get away, Battleguard King attack Odd-Eyes Dragon!"
The moment Battleguard King gave chase, the piece is starting to fell. 'Oh no!' Leo thought. He then looked a ledge, and thought 'This is dangerous, and risky! But it's what I have left!' He started to walk to the door getting close to the ledge as Joe asked "Hey where are you going?" "Going to bathroom." Leo excused. Battleguard King roared, and gave a hard stomp that caused a bit of shaking, as he Leo cried out before felling off the ledge as Joe cried "OH NO! LEO!"
Leo's screams got Yuya's attention as he looked seeing the boy falling. Yuya turned serious, and cried "Odd-Eyes!" Responding to Yuya's call, Odd-Eyes Dragon jumped and caught Leo only for Battleguard King to destroy it sending Yuya and Leo crashing to the ground. (Yuya: 0400)
"Oh for dear monsters! Is Yuya alright?" The annocuncer asked. "Thanks to Battleguard Rage, your dragon returns to your hand instead of going to the graveyard." the Sledgehammer explained. A card appeared in Yuya's hand as they got up. A crash got everyone's attention as they looked seeing the piece had fell. Yuya sweatdropped, and gave out an embarrassed laugh "Wow, if I would stay in that spot I would've been smushed."
Leo sighed in relief thinking 'I did it! I fixed the distortion!' "That was way too close, if you hadn't fallen I would have been crushed." Yuya said. "So thanks." "No worries. And... I'm okay!" Leo told him breathing heavily.
"Well you won't be for long, I play Battleguard Magic. This increases my life points by half of Odd-Eyes Dragon's attack points." the Sledgehammer stated as his life points increased to 4000. (The Slegehammer: 4000)
Battleguard Magic
Quick-Play Spell Card
When a monster is returned to the hand: Gain LP equal to half its ATK.
"My Battleguard King could attack a monster twice, but since you have none you managed to survive this turn. I set one card and end my move." Leo got up, and clinged to Yuya frightened. "Oh, and what's this? Seems like the challenger has a friend with him!" The anncouner said.
"What is this, you can't be me on your own so you have someone else come in to duel with you?" the Sledgehammer questioned. "Fine, bring as many people as you want it won't make any difference." "Can you do this?" Leo asked Yuya. "Don't worry, I'll..." Yuya started before pausing. 'Who am I kidding, I only have monsters in my hand. I guess taking dad's place really was impossible.' "Don't worry. You'll can... you can just draw a good card... then you can win!" Leo tried his best to encourage.
"What are you talking about, you came out here to duel right?" the Sledgehammer questioned. "That means it's your turn." Yuya then thinks back on all the things his dad teaches him, as he said "Your right! It's time to swing into action! Okay Pendulum! You swiged his way! Now it's time to swing MY WAY!" He drew, as his pendant glowed, while three cards in his hand evolved into Pendulum Monsters. "Whoa." Leo said in awe.
"I use my scale 1 Timegazer Magician and my scale 8 Stargazer Magician to set the Pendulum Scale." Yuya declared placing the two cards on his duel disc as his monsters rose from the ground in pillars of light.

"Now I can summon monsters between level 2 and 7 all at the same time."
"What are you doing?" the Sledgehammer questioned in disbelief. "Pendulum Summoning!" Leo sees what he is seeing.
"Now I call on, Performapal Whip Snake, Performapal Sword Fish, and Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Yuya cried, as a snake, a sword like fish, and a new evolved Dragon appeared roaring.

"He just summoned three monsters at once, and that dragon is level seven." the Sledgehammer noted. "He shouldn't be able to make a move like that, it's impossible." "It's not impossible! Mr. Yuya did Pendulum Summoning! He's feeling the flow!" Leo cried excited. "Pendulum what? There's no such thing as Pendulum Summoning." the Sledgehammer countered. "Yeah their is! He finally has a chance to show it! The new Summoning Mechanic from You Show Duel School!" Leo cried pointing at Yuya for that.
"Now I activate Performapal Whip Snake's effect, the attack and defense points of Battleguard King are swapped." Yuya stated. "Then Performapal Sword Fish reduces Battleguard King's attack points by another 600."
Battleguard King: (ATK: 5000 - 1100 - 600 = 500) (DEF: 1100 + 3900 = 5000)
"Yes!" Leo cried. Yuya then says "Climb aboard!" Leo looked, and sees Yuya giving his hand out, while riding the dragon. Leo took it, and Yuya helped hin climbed on. "By the way whenever Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon destroyed a level 5 or above monster you take double the damage!" "Since 2000 are coming your way that equals up to 4000!" Leo added jumping. "No you don't, I play the trap Battleguard Howling." the Sledgehammer said quickly. "This returns your attack monster to your hand."
"Ah ah! I will activate Timegazer Magician's Pendulum effect? Would you like to explain it?" Yuya asked. Leo nodded, as he said "Whenever a trap targets a Pendulum monster like Odd-Eyes, it will negate the activation, and re-sets it!" "What?" the Sledgehammer asked nervously as his trap reset itself. "In that case..." As he said that, the Sledgehammer jumped and grabbed a card out of a tree. "I play the Action Spell Evasion."
"Ah ah!" Yuya looked at Leo who nodded, "Stargazer Magician does the same effect except this time it does it on Spells!" "You can even stop my Action Cards?" the Sledgehammer asked before Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon destroyed Battleguard King and his life points dropped to zero.
Yuya: 0400
The Sledgehammer: 0000
Yuya wins the duel!
Odd-Eyes landed as Yuya cried "Odd-Eyes good job! That was perfect! You too kid, way to explain!"
The screen shows Yuya, and Leo before the word 'WIN' appear on it. 'What's going on, everyone's so quiet.' Leo thought as the Action Field disappeared around them.
Yuya, and Leo were set saftly on the stage. "Huh?" Yuya looked around. "You won!" The two looked seeing a blonde hair woman, a younger Zuzu, Gong, and a crying red hair man "Your father would be so proud of you Yuya!" The woman cried to him. "You show them Yuya!" Zuzu cried. "Even Gong is impressed!" Gong said.
The man crying cried "He's our star player!" Yuya smiled, as Leo cried "Congratulations Mr. Yuya!"
"Pardon me for asking." said a man in a yellow and black striped suit and orange glasses. "You mentioned that You Show was the inventor of that new summoning method. What exactly is Pendulum Summoning?" "It is a new Summoning Mechanic that Mr. Yuya was testing! It is something that once every turn you can summon monsters from your hand, as long as you have the levels required for it! And the best part is that when the monsters summoned through it are destroyed, they go the Extra Deck instead that way you can re-summon them later!" Leo explained excited.
"That's incredible, you heard it here everyone. The debut of You Show's new summoning method, Pendulum Summoning." the man announced into a microphone.
'How does he know what Pendulum Summoning is, it didn't even exist until my last turn.' Yuya thought. Soon everyone started cheering for both Yuya, and Leo.
Meanwhile in the LDS office building:
"Mr. President, we've identified the boy. His name is Yuya Sakaki." noted a man in a business suit. "But their is something else. This other boy is named Leo Logan." The man said. "Is he capable of Pendulum Summoning as well?" questioned a silver haired young man with a long red scarf. "We don't know he seems like your typical everyday shy young kid. He knows it all to well, apart from Yuya acting your typical middle school kid. It appears that these two are a team at Pendulum Summoning." The man told him.
"I see, then make sure you look into their personal lives as well as their dueling history. Any information on Pendulum Summoning no matter how trivial is to be given to me." the young man answered. 'Pendulum, it looks like I've found my weapon. Now to find the people who can best use it for what's coming.'
Back at the town...
A crowd was gathering in front of a Duel School but while that was happening Leo was talking to Yuya. "That was an amazing duel." Leo mentioned. Yuya smiled, "Thank ya but their was still one thing eluding me." "Huh, what is it?" Leo asked. "How do you know what Pendulum Summoning is? It doesn't exsist except on my last turn?" Yuya asked. Leo is trying hard to figure out on how he knows it besides telling him the real reason. "Well I uh... I happen to know everything of it. But this may be tough to understand but uh..."
"There you are, everyone's waiting for you to teach us how to Pendulum Summon." Zuzu said running up to them. "Leo can you take this one?" Yuya asked. Leo told him "But I don't have any Pendulum cards." "No big deal here." Yuya said giving the three Pendulum cards to Leo. Leo seeing this wouldn't cause a distortion took them. "Alright, come on you two. Gong is waiting for us." Zuzu said. They walked to where several kids were crowding, as Leo asked Zuzu "Uh... Mrs. Zuzu where is Mr. Skip?"
"Dad, he's setting up the action field." Zuzu answered. "Okay..." Leo nodded. "Well Yuya, are you ready?" Gong asked curiously. "Uh actually Gong, since Leo here knows about Pendulum Summoning more than I do, he'll take my place." Yuya told him. "He will?" Gong asked. "Alright, are you ready to duel?" "Yes sir." Leo said nervously. Yuya laughed "Don't worry about Gong he'll go easy!" The moment Yuya said that, the field transformed into a peaceful hillside with a lake and a few trees.
"Alright kids. The one who Yuya is with at the match will show you how to Pendulum Summon!" Zuzu told the kids. Leo bowed to Gong asking "Are you ready Mr. Gong?" "Of course." Gong replied. "You can take the first turn Leo."

(ATK: 1300 + 300 = 1600) "I should've known our new friend uses the Ancient Gear archetype." Yuya smiled. "What is that archetype Yuya?" asked a little girl with red hair.
"An interesting one." Yuya said. "What makes it so interesting?" asked a young boy with blue hair. "You'll find out." Yuya said. "Is that all you're going to be doing Leo?" Gong inquired. "I'll lay a face-down. Your turn Mr. Gong." Leo said still a bit nervous.
Gong 1st Turn:
"Alright, in that case I'll start by summoning Superheavy Samurai Blue Brawler in defense mode and that's it." Gong said. A blue machine appeared crossing his arms.

"Due to Ancient Gear's effect I can summon another one from my hand!" Another gear appeared. "Next I play Lightwave Tuning on my Gear Soldier!"

"Lightwave what?" Gong asked. "I now Tune my Gear Solider, with my two Level 2 Ancient Gears!" Gear Soldier turned to four orbs as the two Gears flew up. Yuya asked "Is he...?" "No way, he couldn't be." Zuzu mentioned. "Only Leo Students can do that." "With the use of the Gears we can make a different as long as we can believe Ancient History!"

IF this card is successfully Synchro Summoned each player Special Summons one level 4 or lower monster from their deck. If this card is destroyed add 1 card from your deck to your hand.
"No way, you can Synchro Summon?" Gong asked in shock. "Hmm?" Leo asked.
'It isn't common here? Aw well.' Leo shrugged. Yuya smiled, as he cried "Hey great job!" "So what does your new monster do?" Gong asked. "Whenever he attacks you can't activate any spells, or traps until the end of the damage step. Whenever he destroys a defense position monster half of the destroyed monster's defense points goes to you as damage, and finally when he is Synchro Summoned, the two of us are allowed to summon a monster from our decks, as long as it's Level for or below. And the monster I chose is another Ancient Gear Solider!" Another rusty Soldier appeared. "And due to Ancient Gear Castle they gain 300 points."
Ancient Gear Samurai: (ATK: 2800 + 300 = 3100)
Ancient Gear Solider: (ATK: 1300 + 300 = 1600) "In that case I'll summon a second Superheavy Samurai Swordsman." Gong replied, another hammer wielding warrior appeared. "Now then! Ancient Gear Samurai attack that Blue Brawler with Heavy Armed Slash!" The Samurai rushed, as it slashed the Defensive samurai but it didn't do any effect. "Superheavy Samurai Blue Brawler can't be destroyed in battle." Gong explained.
"Argh. I'll end my turn then." Leo said ending his turn.
Gong 3rd Turn:
"Looks like I can't go easy on you, so I sacrifice both of my Superheavy Samurai Swordsmen in order to summon Superheavy Samurai Big Benkei in defense mode." Gong said, as a big warrior appeared.

When this card is Tribute Summoned: You can change its battle position. This card can attack while in face-up Defense Position. If it does, apply its DEF for damage calculation.
"Now since Big Benkei is in defense mode I can attack using his defense points, so attack Ancient Gear Samurai." The Samurai rushed, as Leo cried "I play a trap! Doble Passe!"
Doble Passe
Normal Trap Card
Activate when your opponent attacks a face-up Attack Position monsteryou control. It becomes a direct attack. Then, the monster originally selected as the attack target attacks your opponent directly.
"Doble Passe, what does that do?" Gong asked. "It changes your attack, to a direct one." Leo explained, as the Samurai punched Leo so hard it pushed him back. (Leo: 0500) "Why would you play a card like that?" Gong questioned. "So that Samurai can do the same. Both of our monsters attacks directly. Sadly Ancient Gear Samurai can't be effected to Traps. So Gear Solider get him! Rapid Fire Flurry!" The Gear Solider fired bullets from his gun hand.
(Gong: 2400) "Those spell and trap effects won't work on my deck." Gong explained.
Then Leo's watch started beeping before he sees the future again.
Distortion in History:
A tree is starting to fell to Gong behind him who doesn't notices this.
Distortion End:
Leo shook his head, as he looked around then sees a tree falling down. "MR. GONG BEHIND YOU!" Leo cried to him. "What?" Gong asked before turning to see the tree falling only to brace himself and catch it before pushing it to the side. "That was close." "Are you okay Mr. Gong?" Leo asked him. "I'm alright, thanks for the warning." Gong said calmly. Yuya said "Hey that's similiar..." "What do you mean?" Zuzu asked him.
"During my duel with Sledgehammer, if Leo hadn't fallen onto the field I would have been crushed by that piece of the duel machine that fell." Yuya explained. "Whoa. He seems like of warning for accidents." Zuzu said impressed. "Yeah, it's kind of weird." Yuya admitted. "Is that all Mr. Gong?" Leo asked. "Huh, oh yeah I end my turn." Gong answered.
Leo: 0500
Gong: 2400

"Synchro and Xyz?" Zuzu asked in shock. "Wait, does that mean you can Fusion summon too?" "Now then since both of them are not larger then your Smaurai's defense points, I'll lay a face-down. Your turn." Leo said.
Gong 4th Turn:
"I guess we'll have to try again to learn about Pendulum Summoning." Gong said. "Superheavy Samurai Big Benkei attack Ancient Gear Samurai!" The Samurai ran as this time it destroyed the Synchro Monster as Leo grunted. (Leo: 0100) "Since Ancient Gear Samurai was destroyed I am allowed to add a card from my deck to my hand." He reveals the card to be Ancient Gear Golem.
"I end my turn." Gong said calmly.

"I think that answers your question." Yuya answered shocked. "You've got to be kidding me." Gong said in shock. "I fuse Ancient Gear Golem, with Blade Armor Ninja!" The ninja jumped, with the Golem as the two fused. "Using Xyz monsters as the Fusion Materials!?" Yuya cried shocked.
"Fusion Summon! Come out! Ancient Gear Warrior!" What appeared was a rusty machine, that has a long spear and a cape behind him.

When this card attacks a monster that has higher ATK increase this card's ATK by 1000.
"Great, so what does that monster do?" Gong asked.
"His attack, and defense points are added by half the points of the Fusion Materials that created him!" Leo started. (ATK: 2600/DEF: 2600) "Next he can use the warrior type monster that was used for his Fusion Summon only once per turn. And finally whenever he's destroyed the two of us are allowed to add a monster from our graveyard, to our hands. Oh, and by the way whenever he attacks a monster with higher attack points they energize by 1000!" "Does your Super Heavy Samurai have anything to do?" Leo asked him.
"Yes. Benkai in in defense mode so your attack won't do anything." Gong said. "I know something to solve that. Go Limiter Removal! This doubles all machine type attack points!" Leo countered.
Limiter Removal

(ATK: 2600 x 2 = 5200)

Stop Defense
Normal Spell Card
Select 1 Defense Position monster on your opponent's side of the field and change it to Attack Position.
"That isn't good." Gong said nervously. "Your Samurai maybe safe but you aren't! Go Warrior attack with Rust of Fate!" The Warrior slashed as it dealt heavy damage pushing Gong back.
Leo: 0100
Gong: 0000
Leo wins the duel!
"That was a great duel, but how did you learn how to do all of that?" Yuya asked. "Do what...?" Leo asked a bit nervously. "Fusion.." Zuzu started, "... Synchro..." the red haired girl continued, "... and Xyz summon." the blue haired boy finished.
"Isn't... isn't those summons popular around here?" Leo asked as he rubbed his head. "No, only Leo Duel School students learn them and even they only know one at most." Yuya answered. "Leo Duel School?" Leo asked only to be startled when the red hair man ran to him, and shakes his hand.
"THAT WAS AMAZING YOU DO THOSE SUMMONS LIKE THEIR NOTHING! Where did you learn them!? How do you know them!? Can you enroll here!?"
BANG!
The man was on the floor with Zuzu looking annoyed. "Is Mr. Skip going to be ok?" Leo asked. "He'll be fine. He gets like that sometimes." Yuya answered. Gong walked to them, as Leo asked "Are you okay Mr. Gong?" "I'm fine, that's quite the deck you have. I just wish you'd gotten a chance to demonstrate another Pendulum Summon." Gong answered. "Oh yeah. Sorry I didn't get a chance too. Hopefully the other Summons can still inspire them." Leo told them while Yuya back his Pendulum cards.
"I think they will." Yuya replied. 'Ok there is definitely more to him than meets the eye.' "Well uh... Mrs. Zuzu what is Leo Duel School?" Leo asked him. "You live here and don't know what Leo Duel School is?" Zuzu asked in shock. "It's probably the most famous dueling school in the world." Yuya explained. "Actually I'm... homeless, and don't know much around here." Leo said sitting down. "What, then why didn't you say something?" Zuzu asked. "You can stay with one of us." "I... don't want to bother anyone of you. Nobody wanted me." Leo told them.
"It's no bother at all." Zuzu reassured him. "Besides, what kind of people would we be if we just ignored you after hearing that?" "Yeah. And somehow I feel like we have a deep conection." Yuya said. Leo asked him "You think so?" "Now that you mention it, I kind of feel the same way." Zuzu agreed. "Yeah me too." Gong agreed.
Yuya smiled, "You can stay with me if ya like." Leo looked at Yuya then smiled "Okay Oni-Chan." He instantly looked down, and put a hand on his mouth. Yuya looked surprised by that. "Oni-chan, huh?" Yuya asked before smiling. "Well why not." "Your... your not offended?" Leo asked him. "A little surprised, but no I'm not offended at all." Yuya mentioned. Leo clinged to him. "Hey, it's alright." Yuya said while leaning down and hugging Leo.
Leo started to sniffle, as he said "Thank you." "Don't mention it." Yuya replied with a smile. "How would you tell your mom about this Yuya?" Zuzu asked him. "I can call her and let her know." Skip answered. "I'm sure she'll understand Leo's situation." "Thanks Skip. You want to come back home?" Yuya asked him. "Yeah, thanks Oni-chan." Leo mentioned. Yuya said "See you later guys." As he picked Leo up, and started to walk out.
Yuya arrived at a house, as he said "Welcome to your new home." "My new home." Leo repeated looking at the house. They entered inside as Yuya cried out "I'm home!" "Welcome home." called a blonde woman before she stuck her head through a door. "Skip called and told me about your situation, you're more than welcome to stay with us." Leo soon has tears in his eyes, as he asked "Is that my new mommy...?"
"Only if you want me to be." the blonde woman said with a smile while walking up to them. Yuya set Leo down, as he said "I... I am Leo... Leo Logan." "Well Leo, it's nice to meet you. I'm Yuya's mother Yoko." the blonde woman said calmly. Leo clinged to her, as she kneeled down. "It's ok, everything's ok now." Yoko said calmly. Leo started crying happy tears as Yuya joined in.
"Ok, come on dinner's almost ready." Yoko mentioned. "What's for dinner?" Leo asked. "Stew for tonight." Yoko answered. They walked in as Yuya assures "Don't worry. We'll take of ya for now on. Besides I wanted to see what would happen if I get a sibling." "Thank you." Leo replied sadly. "Hey hey don't feel sad. Be happy. After all for now on we're brothers." Yuya told him while ruffling his head. "I know, it's just a lot to take in." Leo admitted. "You'll do it." Yuya said as they set on chairs, and Leo was a bit to short for one, as he asked shyly "Uh... mommy...?"
"Yes?" Yoko asked. "I can't reach the table." Leo told her. "Oh, well let's see if we can fix that." Yoko offered politely. Leo nodded a bit. "Ok, here you go Leo." Yuya mentioned before helping Leo up to the seat. "Thanks... Oni-Chan." Leo thanked. "No problem." Yuya mentioned with a grin. "Here boys. Leo you must be hungry." Yoko gave the stew to them. "Thank you very much." Leo said with a smile.
"No problem." Yoko smiled. 'I hope I can help them.' Yuya thought as the three of them ate their dinner. After it Yuya was tucking Leo in the guest room, which was fixed up for him. "Thank you for everything Oni-chan." Leo mentioned quietly. "No problem Leo. Just go to me, or mom if you need anything." Yuya smiled. Leo then asked him "Oni-Chan...?"
"Huh, what is it?" Yuya asked. "Can you... tell me a story?" Leo asked. "A story, alright." Yuya said with a smile. "What kind?" "Any kind is fine." Leo answered. Yuya went to the books as he skimmed over, before picking...
"Would 'The Lorax' work?" Yuya asked. "Yeah, thank you." Leo replied. Yuya smiled, as he took it, sat on a stool cleared his thoat, and read out loud, "At the far end of town where the Grickle-grass grows and the wind smells slow and sour when it blows..."
A few minutes later Yuya finished, and looks, and smiles seeing Leo was sleeping peacefuly. "You're taking this new big brother role in stride." Yoko mentioned as Yuya walked out of the room. "I hope it would last like this." Yuya said. "So do I." Yoko replied with a smile. "Goodnight."
"Night mom." Yuya smiled, as they walked to bed.
Meanwhile in the future...
"Hey guys come over here!" They walked as Sora pointed to see that the destruction is slowly vanishing. "He's actually doing it, he's saving our world." Yuto said in amazement. Yuri said, "I hope the present Xyz Dimension doesn't see him as a treat due to him having my Honor Student Deck." "He has fixed two distortions so far. Ones that can crush both Yuya, and Gong." Zuzu said typing in some controls. "That's true, but Yuri's right as good as he is there's no guarantee Shun will trust him." Yuto admitted. "Not to mention you Kite. If he summons an Ancient Gear monster against you..."
"I know, he'll lose the duel and I'll card him." Kite replied. "We better hope that doesn't happen then." Aster told everyone as they nodded. "Hey guys come over here. Let me rewind this." They looked seeing present Yuya reading the Lorax to Leo who is starting to doze off. "What is it?" Yugo asked. "Seems like Yuya has taken a brother-bond to Leo." Zuzu smiled at the scene.
Gong smiled "Hear that Yuya. Your choice has made you his older brother." "I guess so." Yuya admitted. "You guess so? More like totally!" Aster told him. "He has a point Yuya." Yuri noted with a grin. "Though I suppose that also applies to me, Yuto, and Fusion-kun." "I-I suppose..." Yuya said rubbing his head.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!
"Wait, what's going on?" Yuto asked nervously as Yugo attempted to strangle Yuri only for Yuya to hold him back. Zuzu checked over as she said "Distortion!" She placed it face-up. Some cloak figure has snuck inside the Sakaki residence. "Who is that?" Sora asked. The figure acted steathy as he opened the door to Leo's room as he sneered "That's not him." He shut the door. "Who's there?" questioned a voice from behind the figure. The figure turned around to see Yuya... in PJs.
"Oh Yuya, just the person I was looking for." the figure noted with a smirk. The figure revealed himself to be... Kite. Everyone gasped as Kite said "I didn't appear that early!" "Something's wrong, we need to help him." Yuto stated. "No! It will mess History up! We have to rely on Leo! ...Hopefully." Yuya said looking at the screen.
Zuzu cried "Show this to Leo!"
In Leo's room...
Leo's watch started beeping waking him up, as he saw the future.
Distortion in History:
Yuya was beaten as Kite walked to him, as he pulled a card out. The card then sucked Yuya in as the card showed a picture of him. Kite sneered "Got you Yuri." He then walked away.
Distortion End:
Leo shook his head, before snapping awake. "Oni-Chan!" Leo got out of bed still in his PJs.
"Well Yuya, are we going to duel or not?" Kite questioned. "Who are you?" Yuya asked him. "You'll find out if you beat me." Kite replied. "ONI-CHAN!" That startled the two, as they looked over seeing Leo. "Leo, get back it isn't safe." Yuya called. "So you want to duel me together, fine it won't change a thing." Kite stated calmly before activating his duel disc.
Leo said "Oni-Chan you can't duel him!" "That's where you're wrong, he's going to duel me." Kite said before taking a card out of his pocket and tossing it to Yuya. Yuya caught it, and looked at it. On the card was Yoko with an expression of fear on her face. "MOM!" Yuya cried before glaring at Kite. "Oh your gonna be sorry!" "After everything you did you have the nerve to say that to me?" Kite asked coldly. "Now then, are you ready to repent?"
Yuya activated his, and Leo did his. "Leo I want you to stay out of this." Yuya told him. Leo shook his head, and said "No! I'll not let you do this alone." "I said to stay out of it!" Yuya yelled as his eyes flashed and a dark aura appeared around him. "NO! You'll lose!" Leo argued. Despite being scared, he knows that the only way to fix the distortion was by helping Yuya. Kite sighed, as he said "This is getting pointless!" He shot his arm out as something shot out, and grabbed Leo's wrist.
"What is this thing?" Leo asked fearfully despite moving to stand in front of Yuya. "Duel Anchor. That way you'll be force to duel with me, and your brother." Kite answered. "Leave him out of this." Yuya growled. "If you two are gonna argue on this, you'll only waste my time." Kite said getting ready. "Yuya, you need my help." Leo said desperately. "Oni-chan please."
The moment Leo said that, Yuya looked over at him before looking down in defeat. "Alright, but be careful. Promise me ok?" Yuya asked while activating his duel disc. Leo nodded, as he activated his.
"GAME ON!"

"So I draw two cards! Then I set a card. Your up!" Leo ended his turn.

If you control "Cipher Wing", you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). You can Tribute this card; increase the Levels of all "Cipher" monsters you currently control by 4.
'Cipher? Doesn't he use a Photon Deck?' Leo thought thinking of the Kite from ZEXAL. "Next I use the effect of Cipher Wing, sending it to the graveyard to increase the level of all of my Cipher monsters by four. Now I overlay my two level eight Cipher Wings." Kite declared. "Galaxy shining in the darkness, dwell in the demonic god of revenge and become my very servant! Xyz Summon! Descend, Rank 8! Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon!"
A dragon that is shining, and has red eyes roared appearing as Leo, and Yuya gasped at the sight.

While you control that monster by this effect, its name becomes "Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon", its ATK becomes the same as this card's, it cannot attack directly, and its effects are negated.
Leo thought 'Of course their is always Kite doesn't hesitate to summon that dragon... even if it's different looking. Hehehe.'
"Now I activate Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon's ability, one monster you control is placed on my field and is treated as though it were Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon." Kite explained before pointing towards Ancient Gear Wyvern. "Cipher Projection." Galaxy-Eyes turned it's sight on Wyvern as Leo fell off, as Wyvern turn to Kite's side.

"I set one card and end my turn." Kite stated as the Ancient Gear Wyvern changed back into its original form and flew next to Leo.

Kite: 4000
Yuya 2nd Turn:
Yuya drew, as he thought 'Don't got anything against that Dragon right now. And how was it he can Xyz Summon? I need to be careful. Let's see here what can I use?' "Oni-chan..." Leo said nervously.
"I play Wonder Balloons!" The box appeared as Kite raised an eyebrow in confusion.

Yuya grabbed, and sent three Action Cards to the grave. "With each card sent to the grave a balloon appeared, then by sending it to the grave 1 monster of yours loses 1000 attack points for each balloon until the end of this turn." He snapped his fingers as Galaxy-Eyes was trapped in three balloons. (ATK: 3000 - 3000 = 0) Kite grunted a bit, "Tricks?" 'This move, it just might work.' Leo thought hopefully.
"Next I tribute my Hippo! He counts as two monsters!" The Hippo jumped as it vanished as Yuya cried "Appear now! Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" What appeared was Yuya's dragon roaring.

"Odd-Eyes attack now! Red Spiral Flame!" Odd-Eyes fired a blast, as Yuya added "Whenever Odd-Eyes attacks a Level 5 or higher monster you take double the points as damage, and that's 5000!"
Leo cried out however "Oni-Chan! Xyz monsters don't have levels!" "That's not all, I reveal my trap card Double Cipher." Kite said. "By removing all of the Overlay units on my Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon, I can summon another one from my extra deck."
Double Cipher

Target 1 "Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon" you control; detach all Xyz Materials from it, and if you do, Special Summon 1 "Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon" from your Extra Deck, ignoring its Summoning conditions.
The moment Kite said that an identical dragon appeared on his field before the first one was destroyed. (Kite: 1500) "Argh! Your move Leo!" Yuya cried.

The two machines glowed before Leo added "Now I overlay my Level 8 Ancient Gear Monsters!" The two glowed brown. "What?" Kite asked in shock. "With the monsters of Ancient this is only one monster I can call on! Ascend from the ancient ruins, and free us all! Xyz Summon! Emerge, Rank 8! Hieratic Sun Dragon Overlord of Heliopolis!" What appeared was a golden dragon, with blue markings, and has on a crest on it's head roaring.

"That monster is as strong as mine." Kite noted. "Maybe but I activate it's special ability! By using an Overlay Unit I can send the amount of monster from my hand, or field to the graveyard, and in exchange a card each on your field is destroyed!" Leo said, as a glowing orb popped in the dragon's crest as it started roaring, as Leo revealed Ancient Gear Beast before sending it to his grave.
Thinking quickly Kite looked around before grabbing a card. "Huh?" Leo asked as he saw Kite just grabbed an Action Card. "This won't work." Kite noted just as his dragon was destroyed. "Alright. Next hit should win! Alright, Overlord finish him!" The dragon charged, as Kite looked around, and saw another Action Card, and ran to it.
"I play the Action Spell Big Escape, this ends your battle phase." Kite said quickly.
Big Escape
Action Spell Card

The attack was stopped, as Leo grunted. "I end my turn then."
Kite 3rd Turn:
Kite drew, as he smirked 'Perfect.' "I activate Pot of Greed." Kite said before drawing two cards. "Next I use Monster Reborn to bring Galaxy-Eyes back from my graveyard."
Monster Reborn
Normal Spell Card
Target 1 monster in either player's Graveyard; Special Summon it.
Galaxy-Eyes appeared, as it roared. 'Hey, didn't I just got rid of it?' Leo thought in his mind. "Next I activate Rank-Up Magic Cipher Pursuit." Kite said as a vortex appeared below Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon and in descended into it. "Galaxy shining in the darkness. Release the forever unchanging light and become the beacon that illuminates the future! Rank-Up Xyz Change! Descend, Rank 9! Neo Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon!" "RANK-UP XYZ!?" Leo cried shocked.
What appeared was a much-more powerful version of Galaxy-Eyes.
Yuya cried to Leo "Leo run!" Leo wanted to stop the distortion but knows better. He started to run.
"You aren't going anywhere, I activate Neo Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon's ability." Kite said. "I use one Overlay Unit to take control of every monster on your fields and they're all treated as Neo Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon. Cipher Super Projection!" Neo-Galaxy does it as Dragon Overlord flew to Kite's side, as Kite pulled on the duel anchor, as Leo was pulled back. Leo looked on in frieght. 'Is this the end of me?' Leo thought as tears welled in his eyes.
"Now, I activate the last card in my hand, Galaxy-Eyes Nova." Kite said.
Galaxy-Eyes Nova
Quick-Play Spell Card
Tribute 1 "Galaxy-Eyes" monster, then target 1 "Galaxy-Eyes" monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it.
"By sacrificing the Hieratic Sun Dragon Overlord that's treated as Neo Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon I can revive the Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon in my graveyard. Now, attack them directly!" As Kite said that, Neo Galaxy-Eyes attacked Yuya as Galaxy-Eyes attacked Leo.
The two dragons attacked as they attacked landed.
(Leo: 1000)
(Yuya: 0000)
They both landed. Leo got up slowly, and sees Yuya was knocked out. "Oni-Chan!" Leo cried as Odd-Eyes vanished from Kite's field. "I end my turn." Kite said coldly. Leo went to Yuya's side, and started to shake him "Oni-Chan! Oni-Chan! Wake up!" "He's still alive, unlike what you people did to my friends." Kite stated coldly.
Leo yelled at Kite "Why are you doing this!? What did Oni-Chan do to you!?" "What did he do, he killed countless friends and allies of mine! You think just because you took off that uniform it excuses you?" Kite snapped. "Make your move so we can end this."
"Uniform what are you talking about! I never did anything to you!" Leo yelled at him. "I saw your Ancient Gear monsters, don't try to lie to me." Kite said coldly. "Take your turn or I'll consider it a forfeit." 'Huh? He has a problem with the Ancient Gear archetype? Well I better do it! For Oni-Chan! Oni-Chan...' He looked at Yuya, as he thought 'I will beat this guy for you!'
"Okay Kite! You want me to end this! You got one! You swing your hand! But now IT'S TIME TO SWING MY WAY!" Leo drew, as Yuya's pendant glowed catching Kite off-guard, as the group ran to their location. "Leo, what's going on?" Zuzu asked. "We heard the duel and... Yuya!" "He's fine." Leo's calm voice caught them off guard, as he said "I now use, Ancient Gear Sword, and Ancient Gear Shield to set the Pendulum Scale!" A sword, and a Shield appeared as the numbers 2 through 9 appeared.

"Wha!?" Yuya cried. Sora gaped as the lollypop fell out of his mouth, "Is he...?" "He's Pendulum Summoning!" Aster cried.
Back home...
Leo stood confidently. "What are you planning?" Kite questioned. "No way." Zuzu said in shock. "Leo, are you..." "I Pendulum Summon, Ancient Gear Beast, Ancient Gear Engineer, and Ancient Gear Golem!" What appeared were the three monsters all in attack mode.

"Three monsters at once?" Kite asked in disbelief.
Jun 29"Yes Kite." Kite looked at Leo, who told him "You will regret this. I finally have a familiy again after my previous one was killed. And these Ancient Gear monsters aren't mine their from a friend. My real deck was destroyed sometime ago. But never mind that. Now I play, Upshift!"

"With it all monsters are the same level as Gear Golem." All three glowed. "I overlay my Level 8 Ancient Gear monsters!" The three glowed brown. "Three level eight Ancient Gear monsters, what are you summoning?" Kite asked hesitantly.
"From the ruins lays a machine like one another. Except from it's kin it is the most Ancient of them all! Appear now, and help me in this quest! Xyz Summon! Appear Rank 8, Ancient Gear God!" What appeared was a Robot that looks like it is very ancient, and has on a God Cloak.

'Ancient Gear God, that thing is an insult to everyone they've killed and carded.' Kite thought while clenching his fists. "I activate Ancient Gear God's special ability! Once every turn he steal half of one of your monsters attack points! And when he attacks when this effects applies all traps, and you try to activate are instantly destroyed!" An orb went into the God's crystal as he used a vaccume as Neo Chiper roared feeling's power getting stolen. (ATK: 4500 - 2250 = 2250)
As his dragon's strength was drained Kite ran past Leo and grabbed another action card. "I might not be able to activate spells or traps when you attack, but you haven't attacked yet so I can activate the Action Spell Battle Lock." "Not so fast! Shield's Pendulum effect prevents you from activating Action Spells, only one time." Leo replied camly not turning to Kite.
"That's incredible." Zuzu said in amazement.
'Only one left, this has to do something.' Kite thought grabbing the last action card in the hall. He grabbed it, and looked at it. 'Blinding Blizzard. I need to time this right, one mistake and I lose the duel' Kite thought before staring straight at the Ancient Gear God. "Before you play that." Kite looked as Leo said, "Sword's Pendulum effect activated whenever you activate a Spell before I attack you half your strongest monster's attack points as damage. Your strongest is your 3000 Galaxy-Eyes. Once you play that spell you will lose."
'Those cards.' Kite thought before looking up at Ancient Gear Sword and Ancient Gear Shield. "It's your turn so go ahead and attack." "Very well. God attack-"
BANG!
Leo groaned as he collasped as Kite looked seeing another cloak figure telling him "Come on Kite! Let's go!" "Fine." Kite said before looked back to the group. "You caught me off guard, but next time you won't be so lucky." With those words the two figures ran off into the darkness of the night. "Leo! Yuya!" Zuzu, and the others ran to the fallen Sakaki duo.
"Huh, Zuzu what's that card Yuya's holding?" Gong asked. Zuzu took the Yoko card before it started to glow. "What's going on now?" Gong asked in surprise. Suddenly Yoko appeared looking startled. "Wh-What happened to me?" Yoko asked. "The only thing I remember was- Yuya, Leo!" "They were dueling someone, they nearly lost but Leo managed to Pendulum Summon and nearly won but then someone else showed up and they ran away." answered the little girl with red hair.
"What does their opponent look like?" Yoko asked them. "He was wearing a cloak, but he had yellow and blue hair and a strange duel disc." Gong answered.
The Future...
"Oh boy that was close. That distortion was fixed too." Sora sighed in relief. "For now, but If you were in standard Kite who knows what other changes might happen." Yuto mentioned. "Not to mention that other figure." "Yeah, someone might wanted to stop Leo. It seems like it does make him a target after all." Kite said. "You're right, but who?" Yuya asked. "Someone who doesn't want him to change things." Yuri noted.
Back in the present...
A few hours later...
It was still late at night, and Yuya woke up sometime ago, and was explained what happened and was shocked that his new younger brother nearly beat Kite, and he Pendulum Summoned. "Please tell me your not pulling a joke on me." Yuya told them. "No, it's true." Gong mentioned. "All of it." "That's right Yuya." Zuzu agreed.
"Can you show me his Pendulum Monsters?" Yuya asked them. "Why don't we wait until he gets up Yuya, I'm sure he can show you then but we've all had a very stressful night." Yoko suggested. "Yeah. It is 3 in the morning. I"ll stay in here with him just in case." Yuya told them. "That's probably a good idea." Yoko agreed.
Soon everyone spend the night, and Leo is starting to develop nightmares...
"No. Please." Leo cried in his sleep.
Nightmare Sequence:
"Hello?" Leo asked around.
"We don't want you."
"Nobody wants you."
"Get lost."
"No!" Leo cried.
"Why don't you go?"
"Get lost."
"Come over here." A familiar voice said. Leo looked, and saw Kite smirking, and revealing a card of Yuya. "ONI-CHAN!" Leo cried. Kite smirked "That's right. And guess who's next? You are you reject."
"No! Please! No!" Leo cried.
Back outside...
"Leo wake up, it's just a dream." Yuya mentioned shaking Leo's shoulders as he continued to toss and turn. "Everything's alright." Yoko, and Zuzu ran inside, as Leo snapped awake. He sees Yuya, and clinged to him. "Oni-Chan..." "It's alright, I'm right here." Yuya replied holding Leo. "Everything's going to be ok." "Yuya what's going on?" Yoko asked. "Leo was having a nightmare, he started screaming." Yuya explained. "Oni-Chan... Where is... Where is he...?" Leo asked his brother.
"I'm right here Leo." Yuya said. "No I mean... that guy Oni-Chan." Leo asked him. "He's gone." Zuzu answered. 'For now.' Yuya thought.
Meanwhile in an abandoned storehouse.
"You didn't tell me about Pendulum Summoning." Kite noted "It was new. We thought that only the one that destroyed your dimension is the one that can do it." Some cloak figure told him. "Well apparently they both can." Kite mentioned. "On top of everything else that card, Ancient Gear God! If they plan on using Xyz against me there's only one choice." "And what choice is there?" Some other cloak figure asked.
"Using their weapon against them." Kite replied coldly. "I see what you mean. But their something you might know. That boy was speaking the truth he never done anything to you, and those Ancient Gear monsters he has are from a friend. He was never involved in the destruction of your Dimension." The first cloak figure told him.
"What?" Kite questioned in shock. "Then why was he with him, I saw him with my own eyes as he carded hundreds of innocent people." "It seems he developed a brother bond with the one who destroyed your world." A third cloak figure told him. "Then he'll face the same fate." Kite stated coldly. "Indeed, thought this has proven more diffulcult for you. You need a partner." The second cloak figure told him.
Jun 29"Fine, then are you volunteering?" Kite inquired. "This boy here. He was also a lone survivor of your world." A forth cloak figure said mentioning to a cloak figure who stepped forward. The figure lowered his hood to show... Yuto. "Yuto? I thought you and Shun were looking for Ruri." Kite noted. "We were. But these people told us about that they found who destroyed our world. And stopping them is more important then anything." Yuto told him.
"Indeed." The two looked, as the first cloak figured turned a machine on as it revealed Leo, and Yuya. "One of them is already too powerful on his own. But working together they will be invincable. Their battle styles haven't fully form yet. So you two have some time before they become a perminant team." "In that case we can't afford to wait." Kite mentioned. "We need to get rid of them as soon as possible." "Not yet. You two need to train like you haven't dueled before. Trust me they are what you call... morons." The forth cloak figure told them. "Fine, but when the time comes they're ours." Kite stated ominously.
"Agreed." With that the four cloaked figured vanished.
My first Arc-V fic. I know surprising but me, and Ulrich362 were working on it, and I didn't realized how long it is. Be sure to review!
