Also, an update on the mechanics of the story. All duels will follow the official Konami rules. (8000 life points, no summoning monsters in face-up defense position) Turbo Duels with be like the ones in the 5Ds manga, meaning no Speed Spells will be used during turbo duels. To decide who goes first, a coin will be flipped and the duelists guess the result. The correct duelist then decides who goes first. For turbo duels, they will follow the first one to the corner rule from the anime. For Duel lanes or duel tunnels, it's the first who reaches it first.

Big Announcement: I will use Exceed Monsters in this fic. After watching a couple of episodes of ZEXAL, I realized a butt-load of strategies that can be applied with them.

I will upload the first chapter of my fic in the coming days. Until then please enjoy the official opening for my story now titled: "Yu-Gi-Oh! Heroes." (The song is Orion wo Nazoru).

(We see a view of the New York city skyline as the title "Yu-Gi-Oh! Heroes" flashes onto the screen.)

(A smiling Zeke is seen holding the card of Genex Ally Triforce before playing it on his D-Pad as Triforce appears behind him. The scene cuts to clips of him fixing his runner and noggling Renji.)

(Various flashes of Duel runner parts flash by as a garage door opens and the protagonists on their runners speed out of it and onto the road.)

Orion wo nazoru konna fukai yoru

Shin mirai wo negau kuuzen zetsugo no

(A group of silhouettes with a red glowing wisdom knot behind them overshadow the city as 5 different monsters are summoned. The heroes look at them with their D-Pads and D-Gazers on as the 7 Crystal Beasts fly at Cyber End Dragon, Number 39: Utopia crosses blades with Meklord Emperor Wisel, Chaos Goddess beam struggles with Endymion, Blackwing Armor Master has an air fight with Fabled Valkyrius, and Genex Ally Axel races toward and kicks Number 89: Cosmo Queen. When the kick connects, a huge flash blanks out the screen.)

Koko de owaru hazuganai no ni

(When the lights fade we see the heroes on their runners racing through the highway.)

(We see the sun rise as Silent Magician stands on the Empire State Building.)

(The Final Scene Shows from left to right Angel with her hand on her hip, Renji with his hands in his pockets, Zeke giving the camera a thumbs up, John leaning with his hands behind his head and Sarah smiling with her hands cupped down in front of her. The silhouettes of their Ace monsters appear behind their respective owner.)
