Chapter 2: Pendulum Summon and Dark Pendulm
A/N: Hello, everyone, this is Yuka Kuroshiro here, and I am back with another chapter of Pendulums of Light and Darkness. Before we start the chapter, I would like to thank SparkyIceBlaze135, Duke, and Unknowedz for reviewing the previous chapter. Your reviews are very much appreciated and I hope that you will continue to do so. In response to your reviews...
To SparkyIceBlaze135, I'm glad that I was able to do a really good job. Hopefully I can keep up the good work
To Duke, yes, the Dragon Boys and Bracelet Girls have siblings that will be revealed soon in this story.
To Unknowedz, your guess was right on the mark. Maybe you had the same idea at some point, and that's cool. And Yeah, Yuzu's potential was wasted in Arc-V, and I can assure you that won't happen here. With her and the other Bracelet Girls.
To windchaosdemon, I'm glad you like the remake. That is my goal: To make it better than the original version, because I made some mistakes there.
That being said, on to the story, shall we?

"Yuya and Yukaya are taking on the current pro champion, Strong Ishijima, to prove that their father was not a coward and that they are more than sons of a coward. Yuya had acted like a clown for 3 years out of fear of getting hurt, while Yukaya lashed out with anger and hatred, but now those two are working together to overcome their issues. Defeating a pro like Strong Ishijima is difficult, but something unbelievable happened that shocked the crowd: A pendulum summon."
At the large tower of LDS, a screen displayed a detection alert of a high level Summoning signal at the Miami City seafront.
"Analyze that signal at once." A man orders his staff.
"Yes, sir!" The staff typed away at their computer to analyze the signal, "The analysis is complete! It's called...Pendulum Summon."
"Pendulum Summon...?" The man was barely able to hide his surprise at the name.
Back at the Miami Stadium, Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon roared as it stands with Yuya, Entermate Whip Viper, and Entermate Sword Fish.
"How are you able to summon 3 monsters like that at once? Especially a level 7 like Odd-Eyes without tributiing?" Strong Ishijima questioned.
Nico appeared on Strong Ishijima's Duel Disk's communication screen, "I don't know how he did it, but the Duel Disk accepted the summon!"
"If the Duel Disk accepted the summon, then that means the summoning is legal!?" Strong Ishijima realized in shock.
"I activate Entermate Whip Viper's effect! I can switch the ATK and DEF of one monster my opponent control! I choose Barbarian King!" Yuya said
"What!?" Strong Ishijima said in shock.
Barbarian King ATK: 5000-1100
"Furthermore, I activate Entermate Sword Fish's effect! I can target one monster my opponent controls and reduce its attack by 600! I choose Barbarian King!" Yuya said
Barbarian King ATK: 1100-500
"I don't believe it! In just one turn, Yuya Sakaki has managed to reduce the 5000 ATK power Barbarian King to a mere 500!?" Nico Smiley said.
"Battle! Odd Eyes Pendulum Dragon attacks Barbarian King!" Yuya said as Odd-Eyes moved to attack.
"I activate my trap: Barbarian Howling! When a Barbarian monster I control is being attacked, I can target and return the attacking monster to your hand and inflict damage equal to your monster's ATK." Strong Ishijima said
"Timegazer Magician's Pendulum Effect! When a Trap Card that targets a Pendulum Monster I control, that trap is negated and reset!" Yuya said as Strong Ishijima's trap card was resetted.
Strong Ishijima growls in annoyance and finds an Action Card, "Action Magic: Evasion! I negate your attack!"
"Stargazer Magician's Pendulum Effect! When a Magic Card targeting a Pendulum Monster I control is activated, that effect is negated and the card is set and cannot be activated for the remainder of the turn!" Yuya said as Strong Ishijima's Action Card was set.
"What!?" Strong Ishijima yells in shock as he now has no way to escape the attack, "But I will still have Life left!
"I activate Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon's Effect! When it battles a level 5 or higher monster and destroys it, the battle damage is doubled! Reaction Force!" Yuya said as Odd-Eyes' energy wave grew stronger and hits Strong Iahijima hard, knocking him back.
Strong Ishijima LP: 8000-4000
"UNBELIEVABLE! In just one move, he cut down Strong Ishijima's huge Life in half!" Nico Smiley yelled.
"That ends my turn." Yuya said
"What an amazing Summoning Method." Gongenzaka said
"But how did he do that?" Yoko asked.
The Hiiragi sisters did not pay attention to them, merely staring at the duel as if they were in some kind of trance
"Tch...I don't know how you did that...But on my next turn, I will take you both down!" Strong Ishijima said.
"There won't be a next turn for you." Yukaya said as he draws his card, "Ore no turn! Magic Card, Set Destruction! I discard one card from my hand, and I destroy all of your set cards!" A typhoon blew out from Yukaya's magic card and blew away Strong Ishijima's set cards.
"Damn you!" Strong Ishijima growled.
"Now then, I set Negative Scale 4 Demon-Eyed Sorcerer and Negative Scale 6 Demon-Eyed Witch, I set the Pendulum Scale!" Yukaya said as he slams the cards on the disk and the word 'PENDULUM' appears in dark colors. His two monsters appear on the field in pillars of darkness
"What!? You can do that summoning too!?" Strong Ishijima asked.
"No. This is a different summoning. With these Negative Scales, I can summon level 1-3 monsters and 7-12 monsters simultaneously from my deck and my grave!" Yukaya said
"What!? That's different from what Yuya did!" Gongenzaka said.
"The complete opposite in fact." Yoko said.
"Swing! Pendulum of dark souls! Paint an arc of darkness across the ether! Dark Pendulum! Revive from the grave! Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes!" Yukaya said as a portal appeared on the ground and dark energy flew out to reveal a monster that looks like Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, but its scales are black and red with glowing pastel pink lines on its body with its left eye being glowing pastel pink and the right eye being red.
Supreme King Servant Dragon Odd-Eyes: Level 7; 2800/2500
"Sir! Another high level Summoning Method has occured!" The staff announced.
"What!? What is it this time!? The man demanded
"This is called...Dark Pendulum!"
"What did you say?" The man gasped
"Whoa!" The crowd said in awe.
"Another Odd-Eyes!? Since when did Yukaya have that!?" Gongenzaka said.
"How did you get that in your graveyard!" Strong Ishijima demanded.
"This is Demon-Eyes true form that has been awakened." Yukaya said
"Demon Eyes' true form, you say? Well it doesn't have enough attack point to defeat me!" Strong Ishijima said
"Wrong. When Supreme King Servant Dragon Odd-Eyes attacks, it deals double the amount of damage dealt!" Yukaya said.
"What!?" Strong Ishijima said as he quickly grabbed an Action Card.
"Battle! Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes direct attacks you!" Yukaya said.
"Action Magic: Evasion! I negate your attack!" Strong Ishijima said.
"Shrewd Trick. Trap Activate! Rage Wave! Any cards added to your hand outside of your draw phase are destroyed!" Yukaya said as Strong Ishijima's Action Card was destroyed.
"What!?" Strong Ishijima said as he now has no way out.
"And now the attack continues! Dark Spiral!" Yukaya said as Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes fires a wave of black and red energy at Strong Ishijima and it connects, knocking him down into the ground.
Strong Ishijima LP: 4000-0
Nico Smiley was staring in absolute shock, before he quickly recollected himself, "Th-that decides it! The winner of this duel is the Sakaki Twins, Yuya and Yukaya Sakaki!"
Yuzu and Yuxi snapped out of the trance they were in.
"What happened?" Yuzu asked as she looked around at the others.
Yuxi looked at the field and saw that the Sakaki brothers are victorious, "Did they just win?"
"Yes! They did!" Gongenzaka said proudly.
"Their blood was boiling hot! I'm so proud of them!" Shuzo said as he cried tears of happiness.
Meanwhile, the two Sakaki twins stayed frozen as the solid vision disappeared, before they regained their senses and looked around the area.
"What just happened?" Yukaya asked as he wondered why is the Solid Vision gone.
"Is that Strong Ishijima over there?" Yuya asked as he saw the now former champion on the ground.
"Why is he lying on the ground?" Yukaya asked as he saw him as well.
"Congratulations, you two!" Yoko said, gaining the twin brothers' attention, "You defeated Strong Ishijima for your dad!"
"Congratulations!" Yuzu, Shuzo, and Gongenzaka yelled in proudness, while Yuxi gave a small smile of approval.
The crowd started cheering for Yuya and Yukaya as they gave a big round of applause
"Congratulations, you two!"
"I can't believe that they won against the champion!"
"They even used an awesome Summoning Method that brought out a lot of monsters!"
"I've never seen a Summoning Method like that before!"
A blue-haired boy that was at You Show smiled at the Sakaki twins' victory.
Strong Isijima regains consciousness, "What the hell just happened?"
However, he was shoved aside by Nico Smiley who rushes towards Yuya and Yukaya.
"Congratulations, you two! That victory was splendid!" Nico Smiley said as he took their hand, much to Yukaya's chargrin, "Could you explain those amazing Summoning Method you two did?"
"Could you let go of my hand before I break yours?" Yukaya deadpans, causing Nico Smiley to quickly let go of his hand.
"Also, what Summoning Method are you talking about?" Yuya asked.
At the LDS building, a silver haired young man wearing a long red scarf and a long sleeved sweater outfit has opened a door to a room
"Mr. President, sir!" Another man followed him, "We have identified those boys." A picture of Yuya and Yukaya appeared on the screen, "Their names are Yuya and Yukaya Sakaki, twins being 14 years of age." Another picture shows Yuya eating ice cream and being chased by Yuzu, with Yukaya facepalming and Yuxi sweatdropping, "They are eighth grade students in the Miami City School System." Another picture showing Yuya making a funny face with Yukaya glaring at him, "They are classified as Junior Youth in terms of dueling. And have a look at the tournament resultant." The man shows his president.
"A 50% Win-Lose ratio for Yuya...And Yukaya having 80%..." The president noted, "Yukaya is already qualified for pro...Where do they practice their dueling?"
"At a Duel School called You Show Duel School, which is also in the city." The man saId
"You Show...Yuya and Yukaya Sakaki..." The President murmured in an intrigued tone.
"They are the sons of Yusho Sakaki." The man said as a screen appeared and shows Yuya being interviewed before Yukaya started pulling him away while glaring at the reporters to back off, much to Yuya's protesting.
"They are the sons of Yusho Sakaki who disappeared 3 years ago, and they performed two different unknown forms of summoning." The president said
"Wait! Can you at least tell us how you did those Summoning Methods you did?" Nico Smiley said.
"We don't know what you're talking about." Yukaya said in an annoyed tone.
"Yeah, we really don't remember anything!" Yuya said before the twins were gone.
At the You Show Duel School, there were a lot of people trying to enter the school.
"Mind telling me why are all these people here?" Yukaya asked as he is inside the school with Yuxi and Yuya backstage.
"They all came after we defeated Strong Ishijima! I don't know why though!" Yuya said with a big radiant smile on his face.
"Isn't it obvious? They came to see those new summoning methods you two did." Yuxi said.
Yukaya frowned at this. They didn't come because they wanted to learn at the school. They only wanted to see the Summoning Methods that he and Yuya did because they are new Summoning Methods that they invented, and since they go to You Show, the people figured they could try to get some Pendulum or Dark Pendulum cards if they enrolled at the school. Yukaya knew that the school doesn't have those cards because he and Yuya literally created them out of thin air without even knowing how, and to make matter worse, they don't even know how they managed to pull off the Summonings in the first place. Once those people find those out, they're not going to want to apply anymore. It makes him sick at how greedy people can be
"That's how humans are and always will be. Selfish and greedy creatures."
Yukaya blinked in surprise as that thought did not come from him, yet it rang out in his head, 'What was that?'
"Oi, Yukaya. You okay?" Yuxi asked in concerned as the pastel pink and deep red haired teenager was spaced out then looked like as if something scared him.
"Yeah. I'm fine. I'm going to take a walk." Yukaya started to leave.
"Hey, wait!" Yuya said, causing Yukaya to stop, "I thought you could help me show off the new Pendulum Summoning, along with your Dark Pendulum."
"Don't be ridiculous. I don't show off anything for anybody. You're on your own." Yukaya left a saddened Yuya and a concerned Yuxi behind.
"Don't worry. I'll talk to him." Yuxi placed a hand on Yuya's shoulder.
However, Yuya gave a big smile to Yuxi, "It's okay! Showing them Pendulum Summoning is more than enough! I'm sure Yuzu will help!"
Yuxi sighed, "So naively optimistic. But I guess that's one of the qualities that makes you endearing."
Yuya had a sheepish expression as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Nonetheless, I'm gonna go after Yukaya. Tell us how it went when we come back." Yuxi left, while Yuya nods excitedly.
Meanwhile, after managing to sneak past the crowd, Yukaya is walking as he is in deep thought.
"I need to figure out how to do what I did against Strong Ishijima, otherwise there's no way I can duel again. At least without changing my deck, which is what I will never do."
"Hey, you!" A voice shouted and Yukaya turned to see two boys his age, glaring at him. One was a blond spiky haired boy with blue eyes, wearing a jacket outfit, and the other was a brown-haired shoulder length boy with gray eyes, wearing a short-sleeved outfit.
"Oh great, people to annoy me." Yukaya glared.
"I'm Ryusuke, and my friend here is called Jutaro." The blond said, "How can a chump like you beat the champion!?"
"Who knows? Maybe his skill level is lower than mine?" Yukaya said. While he is not one for taunting people, the two boys are already starting to get on his nerves.
"Why you little punk! You're nothing but a cheating fraud!" Jutaro yelled angrily.
"Oh man, I'm so hurt. If that's what you think of me, then why don't you bother someone that is worth your time?" Yukaya said.
"Because we want to avenge Strong Ishijima's honor by beating you to ground! Afterwards, we're gonna take your cards and deliver them to Strong Ishijima as compensation!" Ryusuke shouted.
"I take it that means you want to duel me 2-on-1. How is this dishonorable handicap match avenging the honor of your champion?" Yukaya asked
"Save it! A cheating coward like you has no right to have a fair match!" Jutaro shouted.
"Funny...Because aren't you cowardly for ganging up on 1 duelist?" A female voice gained their attention and Yuxi was seen walking up to them.
"Who the hell are you!?" Ryusuke demanded.
"Yuxi. What are you doing here?" Yukaya asked.
"Looking for you, only to see that you got yourself in trouble again. Honestly, Yukaya, will that ever change with you?" Yuxi asked with hands on her hips.
"Not my fault people like to annoy me. I was just minding my business as usual." Yukaya said.
"Whatever. Anyway, boys, how about we make this fair with a 2-on-2 match?" Yuxi asked
"And why should we do that?" Ryusuke said.
Yuxi had a scary sweet smile, "Because unless you want to end up only drinking smoothies for the rest of your lives, I think you should. After all, seeing you pick on my childhood friend really pisses me off."
The two boys pale, "We'll take the duel! We'll take the duel!"
Yukaya shook his head. Typical reaction of those who Yuxi gave the scary face too.
"Oi, are you ready?" Yuxi asked Yukaya.
"Yeah, yeah, let's go." Yukaya said as he activated his duel disk, along with Yuxi and their two opponents.
DUEL!
Yukaya LP: 4000
Yuxi LP: 4000
Ryusuke LP: 4000
Jutaro LP: 4000
"My turn! I special-summon Barbarian Warrior Shilk from my hand!" Ryusuke said as long-haired female barbarian-like warrior appeared with a roar as she is holding a sword.
Barbarian Warrior Shilk; Level 3; 1200/1000
"When I have two or more Barbarian Monsters in my hand, I can special summon this Monster to the field! Now I normal summon Barbarian Warrior Loki in ATK Mode!" Ryusuke said as male barbarian-like warrior with his hair in a ponytail with holding a war hammer.
Barbarian Warrior Loki; Level 4; 1600/1500
'Two low level monsters on the field. So he's going to Tribute Summon.' Yukaya thinks
"I release my 2 monsters! Come forth! Barbarian Warrior King Percival!" Ryusuke's two monster's disappeared and a larger monster took their place: A large barbarian-like male wearing gold armor and holding a large glowing sword.
Barbarian Warrior King Percival; Level 7: 2800/2500
"I set a card facedown and end my turn." Ryusuke said.
"A Level 7 monster off the bat? I see you are not one without skill." Yukaya said
"Shut up, you cheating coward! Just start your turn already!" Ryusuke glared.
"You try to compliment someone. My turn!" Yukaya drew his card and looked at his hand. He had two Dark Pendulum Cards with Negative Scale 4 and Negative Scale 7.
'I don't exactly understand how this works...But I can somewhat remember what to do with this...I should at least try.'
"I set the Negative Scale 4 Demon-Eyed Shell and Negative Scale 7 Demon-Eyed Skeeter to set the Pendulum Scales!" Yukaya slammed the two cards on his duel disk and the word 'PENDULUM' appears on it. Two of Yukaya's Demon-Eyes monsters appeared on the field
'Okay...Remember how to do it...Remember the feeling of doing it...' Yukaya concentrated hard, before looking determined
"From my deck, I can simultaneously summon Monsters with levels outside of the Negative Scale I set!" Yukaya said as a portal appears on the ground, "Dark Pendulum! Come forth, my monsters!" Dark energy flew out of the ground in formed into two monsters, "Demon-Eyed Shark! Demon Eyed Ant!" A black demonic shark and a black demonic ant appeared on the field.
Demon-Eyed Shark; Level 3; 1200/1600
Demon-Eyed Ant; Level 2: 800/1000
"Nice work, Yukaya! You pulled it off!" Yuxi smiled.
"So you finally showed off that cowardly summoning method. We will beat you to show you that you're nothing more than a cheating fraud!" Ryusuke said.
"Spare me your nonsense. We're in the middle of a duel." Yukaya said, "I now release my two monsters to Tribute Summon Supreme King Servant Dragon Odd-Eyes!"
His two monsters disappeared as his Dragon appeared on the field with a mighty roar.
Supreme King Servant Dragon Odd-Eyes; Level 7; 2800/2500
"I now set a card facedown and end my turn." Yukaya said as a set card appeared on his field.
"Alright, my turn! I summon Barbarian Guard Loot in Defense Mode!" Jutaro said as male beast-warrior wearing armor clothing appeared with a shield.
Barbarian Guard Loot; Level 4; 1200/600
"Next I activate the magic card, Guard's Call! I can special summon a Barbarian Guard Monster that is a level lower than the one on my field! Come out, Barbarian Guard Quill!" Jutaro said as another male beast-warrior monster appeared wearing the same armored clothing and the same shield as the other monster.
Barbarian Guard Quill; Level 2; 800/1000
"I now sacrifice my two monsters in order to Tribute Summon Barbarian Guard Queen Yue!" Jutaro said as his two monsters disappeared and were replaced by a female beast-warrior wearinng glowing silver armor having a sword and a shield appeared on the field
Barbarian Guard Quuen Yue; Level 6; 2300/2200
"Hmmm, interesing." Yuxi smirked.
"I set a card facedown and end my turn." Jutaro said as a set card appeared on his field.
"Alright then, it's my turn!" Yuxi drew her card and smirked at Yukaya, "Hey, I got something interesting to show you."
"Huh?" Yukaya blinked, confused.
"With Negative Scale 7 Rose Fairy Lillian and Negative Scale 10 Rose Fairy Lilliette to set the Pendulum Scale!" Yuxi sets her cards on the duel disk as the word PENDULUM appears in dark of her female Fairy Monsters appeared on the field in pillars of darkness.
"What!?" Jutaro said
"Her too!?" Ryusuke said
"How?" Yukaya said.
"Now I can summon monsters outside of the scale I set from my deck and my graveyard! Dark Pendulum! Come forth, my beautiful monsters!" Yuxi said as 4 dark bursts of lights flew out of the ground, "Rose Fairy Kilara! Rose Fairy Quincila! Rose Fairy Jaimilia! And finally, Rose Fairy Ariala!" The light formed into 4 female fairy monsters, all having black hair but in different styles, and wearing dark colored dresses.
Rose Fairy Kilara; Level 6; 2200/1100
Rose Fairy Quincila; Level 2; 500/100
Rose Fairy Jaimilia; Level 4; 1600/2000
Rose Fairy Arala: Level 5; 1900/1100
"You summoned 4 monsters at once? That's not fair!" Jutaro said
"Hey, not my fault that's how this thing works." Yuxi said, "I'll end my turn here."
"Tch. You two are nothing more than cheating cowards! My turn!" Ryusuke said as he drew his cards, "I activate the Magic Card: Trap Destruct! All facedown traps on your field are destroyed!"
Yukaya grunts in annoyance as his facedown was destroyed.
"Furthermore, my Barbarian Warrior King Percival gets an 1000 attack point boost!" Ryusuke said as Percival's attack is now 3800, "Now battle! Barbarian Warrior King Percival attack Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes!"
The Barbarian Warrior let out a battle cry as it slashed Yukaya's dragon, causing an explosion
Yukaya grunts loudly as he was sent skidding back by the explosion.
Yukaya LP: 4000-3000
Then suddenly, Yukaya felt something come over him, like something telling him what his next move involving Dark Pendulum should be and Yukaya, trusting his instincts, decides to follow through with it
"Demon-Eyed Shell's Dark Pendulum Effect! When one of my monsters is destroyed in battle, half of its ATK is dealt to you as damage!" Yukaya said.
The spirit of Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes rose from the ground and blasted Ryusuke to the ground.
Ryusuke LP: 4000-2600
Ryusuke grunts as he got up, "Curse you! I set one card facedown and end my turn! And at this moment, my monster's attack return to normal!" Percival's attack went back to 2800
"My turn!" Yukaya drew his card, "Magic Card: Power Life Revival! I can pay 1000 life points to revive a monster from the graveyard and power it up! Revive, Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes!"
Yukaya LP: 3000-2000
Yukaya's dragon returned to the field with a mighty roar.
"And it now gets 1000 attack point boost!" Yukaya said as his dragon powered up to 3800 ATK, "Battle! Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes attacks Barbarian Warrior King Percival!"
Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes fired a blast at Percival
"Trap Activate: Drain Attack! Your monster's attack decreased by a 1000!" Ryusuke said as Yukaya's dragon went down to 2800 and the two battling monsters destroyed each other.
Yukaya made a tch noise and ends his turn with a facedown.
"Ha! You really are just a cheating fraud! You can't beat me!" Ryusuke said.
"Now it's my turn! I draw!" Jutaro said, "I activate my magic card! Life Power! I can trade in as many of my life points as I want to boost my monster's attack by the same amount!"
Yuxi gritted her teeth in annoyance.
"I now pay 3000 life points to give my give my Barbarian Warrior Queen Yue 3000 ATK!" Jutaro said as his monster's atk increased to 5300.
Jutaro LP: 4000-1000
"Yuxi!" Yukaya said
"In the end, summoning all those monsters in attack mode will be your downfall! Battle!" Jutaro said as Yue prepared to attack
"Hold it! Rose Fairy Lillian's Dark Pendulum Effect! When I have more monster's on my field than my opponent's, the opponent cannot attack!" Yuxi said.
"What!?" Jutaro said as an aura surrounded Yue as she froze.
"Furthermore, the opponent takes damage equal to the 100x the level of the frozen monster!" Yuxi said
"What!?" Jutaro said before grunting out as a shockwave emitted from his monster and struck him.
Jutaro LP: 1000-400
"Dammit!" Jutaro said before ending his turn with a facedown, "But now my monster's attack has 5300! You can't beat me now!"
"My turn! I activate the Magic Card: All-Out! I pay half of my life points, and one of my monster's attack get increased by the total of the others, which are destroyed! Yuxi said
Yuxi LP: 4000-2000
"What!?" Jutaro said
"And of course, the monster I choose is my Rose Fairy Kilara!" Yuxi said as Kilara's attack increased to 6200 as the other monsters are destroyed
"Impossible!" Jutaro said.
"Not quite. Battle! Rose Fairy Kilara attacks Barbarian Guardian Queen Yue!" Yuxi said as her monster prepared to fire a blast.
"No! I won't lose! Trap Activate! Attack Destruction! When your monster attacks, it is destroyed and you take damage equal to your monsters' ATK! It's over!" Jutaro said.
"You really think I wouldn't prepare for that? All-Out's other effect! I can cut my Life in half again to negate and destroy your trap!" Yuxi said
"What!? No!" Jutaro said as his trap was destroyed.
"That's what happens when you face me with only power. Now vanish! Rose Fairy Kilara! Attack now! Song of Darkness! Yuxi said as Rose Fairy Kilara destroyed Yue and knocked Jutaro down to the ground.
Jutaro LP: 400-0
Yuxi huffed with her hands on her hips, "Amateur." She said as she looked to Yukaya, "Hurry up and finish it."
Yukaya smirked and nods, "Sure thing."
"Ha! You're not finishing anything! My turn! I activate Ressurection of the Dead! Revive! Barbarian Warrior King Percival!" Ryusuke said as his monster reappeared on the field, "You have no monster on the field! I'll have Percival direct attack you!" Percival dashed towards Yukaya and slashed him.
"Ugh! Trap Activate! Half-Kill! The damage I take is halved!" Yukaya said as he fell on one knee.
Yukaya LP: 2000-600
"Ha! You're just delaying your defeat!" Ryusuke said
"Furthermore, I activate my Demon-Eyed Skeeter's Dark Pendulum Effect! When I receive direct attack damage, the monster that attacked is destroyed, and you take damage equal to half of its attack!" Yukaya said as he stood up.
"No!" Ryusuke said as his monster was destroyed and he was blown back by the explosion.
Ryusuke LP: 2600-1200
"Tch...Curse you! I set a card facedown!" Ryusuke said as his turn ended with a facedown.
"This is the final turn! My turn!" Yukaya drew his card, "I now used the Negative Scale I set to Dark Pendulum Summon a monster from my deck! Dark Pendulum!" Dark Energy flew from the ground and formed a monster, "Demon-Eyed Lizard!" It was a black demonic lizard beast monster with glowing red eyes.
Demon-Eyed Lizard; Level 3; 1000/ 400
"Ha! You say it's the final turn but you can't defeat me with that monster!" Ryusuke said.
"How very observant of you." Yukaya said, "Magic Card: Black Booster! When I have a low level monster on the field, it gains a 500 attack point boost!" Yukaya's monster's atk increased to 1500
"What!?" Ryusuke said.
"Oh...And it can't be effected by my opponent's trap and magic cards...That kind of makes your little facedown useless, doesn't it." Yukaya poked his tongue out with a wicked mischievous expression, causing Ryusuke to get angry and Yuxi to giggle, "Battle! Demon-Eyed Lizard direct attacks you!" He said as Demon-Eyed Lizard unleashes a battle cry and knocked Ryusuke down with its tail.
Ryusuke LP: 1200-0
Winner: Yukaya & Yuxi.
The monsters and battlefield disappeared, leaving Yukaya and Yuxi with two unconscious duelists.
"Well, we did it!" Yuxi high-fived Yukaya, "And you got a hang of Dark Pendulum Summon to boot."
"Yeah, which reminds me, how did you end up with Dark Pendulum Cards?" Yukaya asked
"Same reason you did. No clue." Yuxi said.
"Well, that's another mystery that we hope can be solved. Let's head back to You Show." Yukaya said.
"Worried that your brother botched his Pendulum Summoning and might get flamed for it?" Yuxi said
"It's his fault for trying to show off what he doesn't even know. Besides, everyone must be worried about us by now." Yukaya said.
"True. Let's go." Yuxi said and left with Yukaya.
When they got back to You Show, they weren't all that surprised to see all of the applicant's gone, save for one blue-haired boy named Tatsuya.
"So, what happened?" Yukaya asked.
"Well...I kinda botched the Pendulum Summon..." Yuya said, "And not only that Yuzu Pendulum Summoned too and beat me!"
"Hey...I was shocked that I could do that too, you know." Yuzu said.
"Well, I'm glad that you can do it too...Even it did shock me." Yuya said.
Yuzu sighed, "Sorry if I hurt your feelings. But I honestly have no clue how I got the cards."
"Join the club. But that doesn't explain the lack of crowds." Yukaya said
"Oh, those kids were only here because they thought You Show had Pendulum Cards to give them. And when they learned otherwise..." Gongenzaka started.
"They left because they couldn't get what they wanted like spoiled brats. Typical." Yukaya said.
"Hey, it's not a total loss! We have someone here who knows the true value of You Show." Yuya said as he looks at Tatsuya with a smile.
"My name is Tatsuya. I was amazed by your duel with Strong Ishijima and I want to learn how to duel with smiles!" Tatsuya said.
"Well, guess there's some people that all hope is not lost on." Yukaya said.
"Agreed." Yuxi said
"Hey, don't be like that. Soon, I'll be able to make everyone smile with my dueling! Including you two!" Yuya said, grinning at Yukaya and Yuxi.
"Good luck with that. But how about you master Pendulum Summoning first." Yukaya said, causing Yuya to nearly fall over in embarrassment.
"And what about you? Did you master your new summoning method?" Yuzu asked Yukaya.
"I somewhat got the hang of it. It won't be long until I master it." Yukaya said
"With my help of course." Yuxi said, "Especially since I can Dark Pendulum too."
"Eh!? You can Dark Pendulum too!?" Yuzu asked.
"Does it honestly surprise you since you have Pendulum Cards?" Yuxi asked.
Yuzu looked sheepish, "Fair point..." she said
"In that case, let's work together to master our summoning methods so we can become top-class duelists!" Yuya said
"As long as you don't act like a fool." Yukaya said, causing Yuya to pout.
"Not even a little?" Yuya asked.
Yukaya crossed his arms with a stern glare, "Not even period."
"Oh man." Yuya said as he looked down with a dark depression cloud over his head.
Everyone laughed, or chuckled in Yukaya and Yuxi's case, at Yuya's 'misfortune' thus ending the day on a fairly good note.
Next Chapter Preview: Shingo Sawatari invites the gang to LDS, but when it turns out to be a trap and he steals Yuya's Pendulum Cards, Yukaya duels him in order to get them back and save everyone.
A/N: I'm sooooooooo sorry I took so long! I was busy and I had major writer's block thus slowing down my progress. I'll try to update quicker next time but no promises. And as you noticed, I'm terrible at describing Duel Monster appearances, and I might have rushed the duel just so I can get it done, and I'm sorry for that too. Next duel, I hopefully will not rush, but again no promises. Anyway, I'm open to suggestions on how this story should go. And the question of the day is should I keep Yukaya's dragon's name as Supreme King Servant Odd-Eyes or just call it Demon Eyed Pendulum Dragon. Let me know in the reviews or PM me about it. Anyway, if you like the chapter, make sure to leave a review and/or fav and if you want to keep track of this story, leave a follow. Until next time, see y'all later and remember the fun has only just begun! Bye!
