*Tokyo, Japan*
It was late August and almost time for the third semester to begin in Japan. Two 10-year-old Chinese twins were in the middle of a crowded Shibuya District in the middle of the day. They both had pink hair with a bun in it, wearing the upper part of Chinese dresses as shirts, which were red and white, and purple pants. One of them had her bun on the left side of her head while the other had her bun on the right side of her hair. The twins' names were Chan Xu and Chun Xu respectively.
"So, this is Tokyo's famous Shibuya district?" Chan spoke out as they looked at the busy main intersection.
"So this is where Neku Sakuraba started the Reapers' Game in The World Ends With You." Chun suddenly brought up the topic of a video game. "I can see the accuracy of its recreation of Shibuya already. Especially considering the creators' office is here at this intersection."
"We're supposed to be looking for the academy!" Chan tried to get Chun back on track. "We can sightsee when we get a better feel for the city!"
"What if we end up getting hungry and have to find somewhere to eat?" Chun pointed out.
"Obviously." Chan condescended her sister. "But we're not hungry yet, so let's just ask for directions and if we're lucky, we can map our way to the Academy with ease. After all, I read how girls map out areas by memorizing landmarks, so as long as we ask a local for directions, we can get around the city with ease."
After Chan asked a local Tokyo resident for directions, they eventually…
Got completely lost and wound up at the statue of the dog Hachikō.
"What was that about-" Chun was about to ask her sister before she interrupted.
"Shut up!" Chan tried to keep her twin from insulting her. "Well, I'm sure we can find our way back to that intersection if we just retrace our steps."
"Um, why don't we just-"
"I think I've got it, Chun. Just follow me."
They went to retrace their steps…
And somehow wounded up back at the statue of Hachikō.
"What the heck is wrong with this city? !" Chan exploded in anger.
Chun started to walk away, but then Chan noticed her walking away.
"We have to stick together!" Chan called out to Chun.
"Isn't this statue supposed to be adjacent to Shibuya Station?" Chun pointed out. "I'm sure they have maps there. And considering we arrived at Shibuya from here, why didn't we get a map in the first place?"
Chan felt like a complete idiot for not thinking that through. Despite their age, their intelligence is actually at a high school level, so that's why they have somewhat intelligent conversations… or something.
Later, the twins went into a local ramen shop.
"We chose the perfect time to get that map, because as soon as we got it, our tummy's grumbled." Chun said cheerfully.
"Well, after we eat, we're heading straight to the University." Chan told Chun the plan. "No shops, no arcades. We just have to find our way to the school."
"Got it."
After getting their ramen, they sat at a table inside the restaurant. As soon as they sat down, something caught Chun's attention.
"Um, sis, are you okay?" Chan asked.
"It's just that girl over there." Chun pointed to a girl sitting at a nearby table eating ramen.
The girl Chun was pointing to was a beautiful young girl with a slim, athletic and curvaceous build covered by a white T-shirt and jeans. She also had black hair that was held back tightly in a topknot that dropped below her waist.
"What about her?" Chan asked.
"I think I see a Duel Disk on her." Chun said as she pointed out that the young lady had a Duel Disk. "How about we do a little practice Duel with her?"
"Did you just choose someone that randomly?" Chan had to question.
"Well, with her looks, most guys would be rooting for her and it would be a total turnaround to them if we manage to defeat her." Chun answered.
"I still don't follow your logic."
"Never mind that." Chun got out of her seat and walked up to the table that the slender young girl was sitting at. "Excuse me, miss?"
The girl looked over at Chun, who was standing almost right next to her.
"Hm?"
"I couldn't help but notice that you have a Duel Disk. Would you mind if my sister and I challenge you to a Duel?"
Chan was in a state of disbelief at how her sister was able to ask that so nonchalantly.
"Um… sure, I wouldn't mind." The girl accepted Chun's request.
"I'm sorry for my sister's inconsiderate behavior." Chan told the girl. "I'm Chan and this is Chun. And our opponent's name would be… ?"
"Momo." The girl introduced herself.
"Prepare to have your butt whooped by the world's cutest thing and her sister!" Chun proclaimed. "I'm the cute one, by the way."
Chan lets out a deep sigh at her sister's comment. "My sister is also bit of an egomaniac when it comes to cuteness. She thinks she's even cuter than a kitten."
So, the girls stepped outside and got their Duel Disks ready for the Duel.
"Oh, I should mention the rules of this match." Chan started to explain. "You will have 4000 Life Points while the two of us have 2000 each. The two of us will use the same field and if you happen to defeat either one of us, you win."
"Wouldn't that make it easy for me to win, though?" Momo felt like she was given too much of a handicap.
"We're planning on being a tag team, so we came up with those rules to try to create partner synergy." Chun explained.
"It's this idea where two duelists fight as one duelist." Chan summed up. "Oh, and the turn order is Chan, me then you and then back to Chan. Now, let's start!"
All three of them activated their Duel Disks and Duel Gazers.
"Augmented Reality Vision Link Established." The VI system said.
"Let's Duel!" All three of them exclaimed as they started the Duel.
Chan (LP 2000) Chun (LP 2000) Momo (LP 4000)
"I'll start this!" Chan volunteered to go first as she drew her first card. "First, I summon Dualforce Gear (Lv.2 800/600) in attack mode!"
A pair of gears attached to each other appeared on the field.
"Then I'll set one card face-down and end my turn!" Chan concluded her turn.
"Now for the cutie pie to make her move!" Chun drew her first card.
"We look exactly alike!" Chan pointed out. "If you're cute, then I'm just as cute!"
"Whatever." Chun shrugged off Chan's comment. "I summon Dualforce Angel (Lv.2 1000/600) in attack mode!"
An angel with the reflection of another angel behind her appeared on the field.
"And here comes her special ability!" Chun continued. "When she's Normal Summoned, I can Normal Summon another Dualforce monster this turn! I'm going to summon another Dualforce Angel! Unfortunately, I can only use this effect once per turn, so I'll end my turn!"
"My turn then!" Momo said as she drew from her Deck. "Since you have a monster and I do, I can Special Summon Shinobi-Genma the Beast (Lv.5 2000/1800) from my hand!"
Appearing on Momo's side of the field was a male ninja. He made a hand-sign and his arms suddenly became enlarged claws.
"And there's more!" Momo continued her turn. "Since I control a Shinobi, I can Special Summon Shinobi-Yuri the Kunoichi (Lv.4 1800/1600) from my hand!"
A beautiful, young female ninja with purple hair and wearing a black ninja dogi appeared on the field.
"And then I'll use Yuri's ability! I can add a Spell or Trap Card from my Deck to my hand for each Shinobi monster I control! Since I have 2 Shinobis, I can take 2 Spell or Traps from my Deck!"
Momo took two cards out of her Deck and placed them in her hand.
"Then I'll end my turn by placing one card face-down!"
"I go next!" Chan said, drawing her next card. "Chun, may I borrow one of your Angels?"
"If you're Xyz Summoning, then go right ahead." Chun responded.
"There's something I forgot to mention about Dualforce Gear. When he's used as a Tribute or Xyz Material monster, he can be treated as two monsters. Now I'll use Dualforce Gear and Dualforce Angel to construct the Overlay Network!"
Dualforce Gear and Dualforce Angel became streams of light that were respectively colored black and yellow that dove into a cosmic vortex that appeared in front of Chan and Chun.
"I Xyz Summon Dualforce Berserker (Rank 2 1400/0)!"
A vicious werewolf-like creature with massive arms appeared from the Overlay Network.
"And here's where things get hairy!" Chun tried to make a witty line. "Each turn, I can detach one Xyz Material to double his attack power until the End Phase!"
Dualforce Berserker swallowed one of the green orbs surrounding it and his power doubled to 2800.
"Before I attack, I'll activate the Spell Card Dual Thunder! Since we control 2 or more Dualforce monsters, I can destroy one monster on the field!"
A thunderbolt struck Genma the Beast and destroyed him.
"Now, Dualforce Berserker, attack her ninja!"
Dualforce Berserker charged at Yuri, ready to strike her with his claws.
"I activate Paper Bomb Trap!" Momo retaliated to Chan's attack. "I can only activate this Trap while I control a Shinobi and lets me destroy all monsters you control!"
Yuri threw a web of paper bombs that trapped Dualforce Berserker and Dualforce Angel. Then the bombs exploded and destroyed them both.
"Damn it!" Chan exclaimed in frustration. "I end my turn by summoning Dualforce Ghost (Lv.2 800/0) in defense mode!"
A two-headed ghost came out of the ground in front of Chan. Chun then drew her next card.
"First, I'll activate Cost Down!" Chun activated a Spell. "By sending a card from my hand to the Graveyard, I can lower the Level of all monsters in my hand by 2!" She discarded a card from her hand. "Then I summon Dualforce Fiend (Lv.6 2200/1600)!"
A demonic-looking, humanoid monster appeared on the field.
"Now I activate the Spell Dualforce Modulation!" Chun continued her turn. "I declare a Level between 1 and 8 and all Dualforce monsters we have become that Level! I declare that all Dualforce monsters be Level 8! Now I overlay our 2 'Level 8' monsters to construct the Overlay Network!"
Dualforce Fiend and Ghost became purple streams of light and entered into a space vortex.
"I Xyz Summon… Dualforce Wyvern (Rank 8 3000/1800)!"
A two-headed dark red wyvern appeared from the Overlay Network.
"Each turn, I can activate one of his effects! I can increase his attack power by 200!"
Dualforce Wyvern started to become enveloped in a red aura and his attack points increased by 200.
"Now Wyvern, attack her lady ninja! Oh, and he can attack twice!"
Dualforce Wyvern flew up and one of the heads breathed fire the consumed Yuri. But another ninja shielded her from the attack and vanished into the shadows.
"What happened?" Chun was surprised that her attack was stopped so suddenly.
"Since you declared an attack while I had 3 or fewer Shinobis, I sent Shinobi-Akio the Leader (Lv.7 2500/2000) from my hand to the Graveyard to end the Battle Phase!" Momo explained what just happened. "And during my next Standby Phase, I can bring him back!"
"Ooohh!" Chun became red with anger. "Well, I'll activate Wyvern's other effect! By removing one of his Xyz Materials, I can inflict you with 1000 points of damage!"
One of Wyvern's heads absorbed one of the green orbs surrounding him and breathed fire at Momo, inflicting her with 1000 points of damage.
Chan (LP 2000) Chun (LP 2000) Momo (LP 3000)
"I end my turn!"
"My turn then!" Momo drew another card and a ninja with spiky dark hair and a dark blue ninja dogi appeared on the field. That ninja was Shinobi-Akio the Leader. "Now I summon the Tuner Shinobi-Amane the Healer (Lv.3 900/500)!"
A girl with a white cloak appeared on Momo's side of the field.
"Then I'll tune Amane with Yuri to Synchro Summon Shinobi-Shinra the Black Op (Lv.7 2600/2000)!"
Out of the Synchro light appeared a cloaked man wearing an animal-like mask.
"Now that I have 2 Level 7 monsters, I can use them to construct the Overlay Network!"
Akio and Shinra both became light streams that entered into the Overlay Network.
"I Xyz Summon Shinobi-Yumi the Master Kunoichi (Rank 7 2900/2700)!"
Appearing on Momo's side of the field was a beautiful lady ninja with long, pink hair wearing a red ninja top and black pants. She was also carrying a variety of weapons. On her waist she held a sword in its sheath, a kusarigama, claws and a few bombs and kunai, while her back held a hammer, a scythe and dual swords.
"Now I remove one of her Xyz Materials to Special Summon that card to the field!"
One of the orbs transformed into Akio the Leader and Yumi started to glow a rainbow-colored aura.
"There's more. When I do this, I can increase Yumi's attack power by that of the Xyz Material I just detached."
The rainbow-colored aura caused Yumi's attack power to jump all the way to 5400.
"Now attack Dualforce Wyvern! And guess what? Since I have Yumi out, you can't activate Traps"
Yumi then pulled out the sword from its sheath and vanished. She moved so fast that when she reappeared, Dualforce Wyvern suffered damage from more than just a single slash of her sword. Apparently, she used each of her weapons on that single attack and it went by so fast, it only looked like she only swung her sword. Dualforce Wyvern was destroyed and Chun's Life Points dropped to 0, meaning that the twins lost the Duel.
Chan (LP 2000) Chun (LP 0) Momo (LP 3000)
"Oh, we lost!" Chun brought up.
"Just you wait!" Chan was about to declare to Momo. "Once we learn more about dueling at Tokyo University, we'll come back and have our vengeance!"
"Tokyo University… ?" Momo muttered something Chan just said. "You're going to the Academy, too?"
"… Wait, what do you mean 'too'?" Chan asked, hoping she's not saying what she thinks she's saying.
"I'm actually enrolling this semester, too." Momo spoke the words Chan was thinking she would say.
"Well… we'll see you there!" Chan said. "Come on, Chun. The Academy's gotta be somewhere nearby."
"Umm…" Momo was about to speak to them. "Tokyo U's like 9 miles from here."
Chan then had this look on her face that practically said 'How could I have been so ****ing stupid? !', although she didn't think those exact words.
"We'll have to take the train. Come on, I'll show you the way."
Momo offered the twins to follow her to the Academy while Chan was still completely dumbfounded.
*I feel like a complete and total idiot right now.* Chan thought. *I feel like I should hate her, but there's something about her that stops me from doing so. Plus, it was my own pride and assumptions that got us lost. Hopefully, things will improve when school starts.*
