CHAPTER 1: Duel exam…I'm late!

In the wake of morning, blinding beams of sunlight shone through my window and onto my bed. I rubbed my eyes abit and sat up on my bed still hunching. I turned to look at my alarm clock and to my horror. The alarm clock shone 3 distinct characters, 9, 0 and 0… "OH MY GOD! It's 9am! The test duels for duel academy start today at 9am!" How in the world was I supposed to reach Duel academy in time? I tried not to swear as I dashed to wash myself up. I slipped on my Slifer Red jacket ontop of a plain white T-Shirt as well as a pair of jeans and ran down a couple of streets to the duel academy. On my way, as I ran as fast as my stamina to uphold, I happened to see a little kid crossing the street and to my horror a van was speeding towards him! Without thinking I flipped over the railing of the sidewalk and pounced towards the boy. I grabbed him by the waist and raced for the other end. I panted continously, as I told the boy not to be so reckless and that he should always take either the zebra crossing or cross the road in the presence of traffic lights. The boy's face was still pale white. He swallowed and said, "Thanks a lot sir, you really saved my life back there. I will be careful next time." I smiled boradly and suddenly I remembered the fact that I had to rush to duel academy for the exams and was about to dash off when the boy grabbed my arm. He took my hand and put a face down card on my palm and said, "Take this card as a token of my appreciation!" The boy smiled cheekily as he hopped along.I flipped over the card and too my amazement it was a Super rare…Kuriboh. I was admiring the card when the sight of the card reminded me that I had forgotten to take my deck and duel disk! "GAH!" I yelled as I dashed back home to get the items. At around 9.45, I finally reached the duelling arena. The duelling arena had a majestic design with a beautiful dorm shaped glass panel on top of the arena. In fact the place was near perfect with duelists from all dorms except Mr Doronos, our school's duelling professor's angry face. "Ai! Why isn't it the boy who got a stomachache once he finished only half of the duel theory paper. Why are you so late today? You overslept?" I was stumped by this question, I did not know whether to lie or to agree to the statement. Finally… "Yes…" I murmured. "What rubbish! I guess that is what you would get from an eventual drop out boy like you!" smirked with glea. "Now, go over and prepare for the duel." grunted. As I walked off, I saw my friend, Sophie Fudo. "I saw everything. Don't worry! That Mr .Doronos won't stand against your duelling skills!" Sophie smiled. "WHAT! I'm duelling !" "Erm…ya? Didn't you read the notice outside?" Sophie asked, puzzled by my failure to notice such important notices. How collpased on the floor whining! "So has lost so far?" I asked as I hoped for a yes. But apparently the answer that came from Sophie was a…

"No…" GAH! How was I ever supposed to win. "Don't worry, he will grade you according to your performance regardless the result of the duel." Sophie comforted me. I stood up and shouted, "I will not give in to a challenge. How can I pass off such a fun duel?" I smiled to Sophie. Just at that moment called from the duel hall within the arena, "Drop Out boy! You are up!" Sophie wished my luck and I dashed off to the hall. "You should be grateful you have the privilege to be crushed by my Drop out boy." smirked. "Let's see what happens then! Let's have fun duelling!" I exclaimed with excitement to the fact that I was going to have a great duel! After that, as if both had briefly put out differences aside, we shouted in unison, "DUEL!"

Dylan: 8000 vs Mr. Doronos: 8000 's turn

"I'll take the first turn." Says Mr. Doronos. "Draw! I activate from my hand destiny draw! Discarding my destiny hero malicious to draw 2 cards. Now from my grave I activate destiny hero malicious's effect to remove from play a copy in my grave to summon another copy of it. Now I activate 'Reinforcement of the Army' to allow me to take Elemental hero stratos from my deck to my hand! Now I normal summon Stratos whose effect triggers upon summoning. I can now take from my deck a monster with "HERO" in its name, and I choose Destiny hero Diamond dude. Now I activate 'Double summon from my hand allowing me to normal summon once more this turn, and I summon Destiny Hero Diamond dude! Diamond due's effect activates, I can flip the card on my top my deck. If it is a spell card it is a Spell card then I can send it to the grave to be activated the next turn without any cost. And the card is "Bonding H2O"! As it seems your fate is already sealed drop out boy! I activate Nightmare Steel Cage along with a set card and I end my turn!"

Dylan's turn

Seeing Mr. Doronos's field, I was sure nervous but all the more I felt great excitement! This is bound to be the best duel of the day! "My turn! I draw!" I drew onto 'Double or Nothing'. I looked at my hand. My hand consisted of, Gearfried the Iron knight, Light force sword, Summoner monk, Bottomless trap hole, call of the haunted and lastly double or nothing. Sadly, I did have a spell card which could have allowed me to used summoner monk's effect to special summon a level 4 monster from my deck, allowing me to Xyz summon a monster but I wanted to keep double or nothing just in case. I normal summoned, Gearfried the Iron Knight and set bottomless and call of the haunted, and hence ending my turn. "It's your turn, Mr. Doronos!"

Mr. Doronos's turn

"Trying to act all gentlemanly, Drop out boy? My turn draw!" Upon seeing the card, laughed hysterically. Seeing this as a chance to stop his advancement. I activated my trap card, 'Light force swords' allowing me to pick one random card from my opponent's hand and remove it from play until my opponent's 4th standby phase. To make it fair, shuffled his hand. I now had a 1/5 chance to strike that card that he had drawn. I chose the card right in the middle and to my horror it was a 'Mystical Space Typhoon…' Mr. Doronos then entered his main phase, activating 'Bonding H2O to special summon his Water Dragon! "Oh no you don't!" I shouted as I destroyed his Water Dragon using bottomless trap hole. It was then destroyed and banished. "I don't really care. Because I've got this!" Mr. Doronos exclaimed. He activated his face down card, 'DNA Surgery' turning all monsters on the field into Fiend type monsters. "Now for the awakening of a beast that will shatter your dreams of ever carrying on in duel academy! By tributing 3 fiend type monsters on the field, I can special summon this card. Since DNA transplant turns all monsters on the field into Fiend type monsters, that way, my Destiny hero malicious, destiny dude and Elemental hero stratos are all Fiends. Hence fulfilling the requirements for this card. Now come forth! RAVIEL LORD OF PHANTASMS!" A dark cloud appeared and down came the legendary sacred beast, Raviel. With a towering 4000 Attack. I didn't really stand a chance. "Now I activate mystical space typhoon from my hand allowing me to destroy Nightmare Steel cage! And now attack my beast destroy his weak creature!" Gearfried was destroyed, and I took 2200 life points worth of damage. "Weak little drop out boy! I end my turn!"

Dylan: 5800 vs. : 8000

Dylan's turn

"My turn draw!" I exclaimed. I had drew onto 'Level limit zone area B' Which would allow me to switch all monsters on the field which is level 4 and above to defence position. I immediately activated it and ended my turn. Mr. Doronos's turn "My turn draw! You petty little drop out boy! I activate monster reborn to bring back destiny hero diamond due to my side and now activating it's effect to flip a card. And the card is 'Heavy Storm'!" I was totally awestruck! Heavy storm would totally ruin me! "Now due to your petty little card, I can't attack. So you are save for now!" Dylan's turn "My turn! Draw!" I drew onto Allure of darkness. I activated it, allowing me to draw two cards at the cost of removing from play one dark monster, and I removed summoner monk. I drew onto 'kuriboh' and obnoxious Celtic guardian. I normal summoned Obnoxious Celtic guardian and activated my face-down card, 'Call of the haunted'! "Come forth! Gearfried the Iron Knight!" I exclaimed as Gearfried stood in front of me once again. (With the effect of Raviel, a token was summoned due to my normal summon.) "Awaken the heart of the cards! I overlay my level 4 Gearfried knight with my level 4 Obnoxious Celtic guardians to create the overlay network allowing me to summon… NUMBER 39: UTOPIA!"
