Hello fans. Exiakaiser here with a new twist. In this chapter, Lan is gonna take center stage. In this story, taken from the pages of episode 3 of the anime, Syrus receives a love-letter from Alexis that causes more trouble than it was worth. Also, Jaden is out cold because of a trap Chazz decided to pull on Kuro. But you knew it was coming, right? Now onto the Duel spirit profile.

Haseo

Class: Adept Rogue

Initial appearance: Dot Hack G.U. Episode 1

History: In the early 21st century, a virus caused the entire internet to literally come crashing down. Then the Cyber Connect Company came in and introduced the only remaining MMORPG to exist. Called "The World" (yes, it was really called that), this game was based off a poem called "The Epitaph of Twilight" (Although I really would like to know if the poem exists in reality or not), this game allows players to immerse themselves in the game world, make friends, and participate in quests. However, new players have a lot to fear with the introduction of players of high level called "Player Killers" or P.K.s for short. However, because of this, Haseo had to restart his character when he first logged into the game for the first time. He was offed at the start by a couple of P.K's who just loved their way of playing. However, he became known as the P.K.K. or Player Killer Killer. Feared by P.K's as "The Terror of Death", he hunted a mysterious P.K. known only as "Tri-Edge".

Duel spirit personality: Haseo is very blunt and to the point with his speech, even if it means insulting someone straight to their face. However he does care about Lan and the other spirit he keeps.

Wow. And I thought P.K's were mostly people who got their rocks off by hunting and killing off player characters. And yes, before you even asked, I was a victim of P.K. I tried a game called "Armored Legion", and only tried it for a day before I was . That actually angered me to no end. Then I remembered something my mother/landlord said: If you could not play a game without P.K.s, leave the game. And I did just that. Now I try to find games that have no PvP (1), or at least a PvP that allowed you to face players of your level.

Just to let you know, I just started playing the Dot Hack series, so I apologize if I appear a tad slow getting this chapter out. Also, any Intel you guys could give me would be fabulous. Also, starting this chapter, you will get a look into the enemy camp. That's right; you will catch glimpses, and sometimes, if you are lucky, catch a meeting of the Z-Council. Be warned, though, most of the interactions in this season will be through one of their organizations: the UDAA. If there are any people who played the "No More Heroes", other than Card Golem and myself, can catch the reference, I will personally take a look at any original character you create, and add it to the list.

Now, I'm sure most of you are confused by my pre-chapter rants, but this allows me to get some things said before I start the chapter. And yes, I have a lot on my mind. This is who I am. Also, I will not be doing a chapter every few days, but it will take longer and longer, mostly due to the fact that I am trying to pace myself. No need to rush the job when you got all the time in the world. And I have to do the research on the different decks I make. For example, next chapter will introduce the first of the secondary decks. Will explain the deck when I get it done at the beginning of the next chapter.

Before I start the next chapter, I should let those of you just catching on, that Metal Heroes are a third group of tokusatsu heroes created by Toei. So I cannot make any of the names up even if I tried. Consider them to be the oddballs of the group. Now onto the disclaimer: Neither I, nor Card Golem, claim to own any of the series represented in this series. We only own the characters we created for this series. Also, we want all of you to know that this is only for entertainment purposes. Now grab some snacks: the show's about to start.

Hello, my name is Lan Data. And right now, I stand at the crossroads of a mystery and a crisis. Syrus has been tricked by someone into going into the Obelisk Blue Girl's Dorm, and just before he could even get over there, Jaden collapsed, asleep from eating a loaded cupcake meant for Wolfie here. –End-

Lan asked the obvious question, "How did this happen?"

All eyes turned to Kurogane, Who spoke, "Well how the smeg should I know? I didn't even know that cupcake was loaded. I just found it in my locker and was gonna eat it, when Jaden snatched it from my hands and ate it."

Lan rubbed the bridge of his nose, and asked the obvious question again, "How did this happen?"

Chapter 3:

Lan Vs. Alexis: Rise up Haseo!

A.K.A: Mystery of the loaded cupcake.

(I will get your member address soon, Alexis!)

FLASHBACK!

-8 hours ago-

Alexis had just finished explained the different kinds of cards. There are the following types of cards: Monster cards, spell cards, and trap cards. Monster cards are divided into several types: Normal Monster Card, Effect Monster Card, Ritual Monster Card, and Fusion Monster Card. Spell cards are also separated into different categories: Normal spell, Equip spell, Quick-play spell, Field spell, Continuous spell, and Ritual spell cards. Traps cards are separated into 3 categories: Normal, Continuous, and Counter. Crowley had just decided to pick Syrus to explain Field spell cards.

Ryu was nodding off at his seat, so Crowler, smug as ever, decided to press on and mess with another Slifer kid, "Ryu!"

Ryu stood up with a shot, "Sir!"

Crowler asked him to describe a decent trap for defending against traps designed to destroy monsters.

Ryu answered with the trap card "Seven Tools of the Bandit".

Crowler, already upset that Jaden had just made him remember his loss, tore into his handkerchief once again. However, before he could respond, the bell rang, and class was over. When that happened, Lan and Kuro went over to Ryu, and conversed about their latest duels and class work. They decided, at Lan's behest to set up a study group. This would let them prepare for the exams that would be coming up. But before they could agree where to meet up for that, Chazz walked over to Kuro and did something that everyone knew was gonna happen.

Chazz tried to bully Kuro for his food money, "You better give me your lunch money, if you know what's good for you."

However, Lan knew Kuro since middle school, and knew that Kuro usually was the one Bullies feared. He used to deal with them in the usual manner, if they threatened him up-close, he would just use a judo throw on them. Chazz had no time to react as Kurogane grabbed his arm and swung him over his back and into a prone position. As Kuro walked away, Lan spoke with contempt at Chazz, "Kuro hates bullies, so next time you try that on him, reconsider your approach. If you try to do that again, he will throw you harder than that." Then Lan walked away.

Suddenly, a duel spirit appeared behind Lan. This was Haseo, an Adept Rogue in the Dot Hack G.U. series. He commented, "That Chazz person is a real jerk, trying to pick on others like he does. Maybe we should teach him what happens to people like him in The World."

However, Lan stopped him from saying anything else, "Let Kuro deal with him for now. We need to get a move on." He was right, because the next class was about to start.

The next class was taught by the head of the Slifer Red Dorm, Professor Banner. He looked like a tall guy, with a pair of brainy specs. He was doing a lesson on Alchemy. Syrus was thanking Jaden for standing up for him back in Crowler's class. However, Banner caught him, "Mr. Truesdale," he asked.

Syrus stood up and responded, "Hai! (2)"

"Could you help me catch Pharaoh," asked Banner.

"Phara-oh," asked Syrus, confused.

"My cat," said Banner. All of a sudden, Syrus looks down and sees a cat rubbing against him. All the other classmates giggled as Syrus blushed in embarrassment.

-MEANWHILE part 1-

Chazz was angry, for good reason. He had been humiliated by Kuro, not once, but twice. His henchmen were made to look incompetent, and he was treated like a fool in front of his crush, Alexis. He was currently reading a book titled "How to Make Your Enemies Look Like Complete and Utter Fools" by Jasper Batt Jr. He came up with an idea for using a loaded cupcake. However, instead of using a laxative, he decided to use a sedative. This would make him so sleepy, he would be forced back a dorm, maybe even get hime dropped into the Slifer Red Dorm, where he belongs, Chazz thought.

-MEANWHILE part 2-

Crowler was angry, because Jaden had made him look like a fool. He decided to get the "Dropout Boy" expelled, like he "deserved", according to Crowler. He had just finished reading the book titled "How to Get Rid of Someone Who Makes You Look Like a Moron", also by Jasper Batt Jr. The idea he got from it was to forge a love letter, and place it in Jaden's locker in order to get him expelled by getting him into trouble. He wrote the letter, and followed through his plan.

Gym class was a pain, as Lan remembered his middle school years. However, thanks to Piros, he was able to get through it, while the green heavy axeman kept telling him, "Feel the burn! If you keep at it, you will become as strong as I am."

However, for Syrus, lateness was a problem, until he found a letter in his locker, meant for Jaden. It was from Alexis, asking him to meet her in the Girls Dorm that night. Syrus, determined to keep this information to himself, made sure not to show the letter to anyone.

-A few hours later -

Kuro was very confused. He had received a cupcake in his locker with a note, with no signature, telling him to enjoy. For some reason, he was getting a bad feeling about it, when Jaden walked up to him and asked, "Have you seen Syrus anywhere, Kuro?"

Kuro just shook his head and turned away, trying to figure out the mystery cupcake. First off, how did they know about his sweets preferences, Orange flavored? Second, who sent it and why? However, all of a sudden, Jaden looked at it and grabbed it, asking, "You gonna eat that?"

However, before Kuro could respond, Jaden took a bite out of it. There went what may have been a good treat, or evidence of a trap. However, as Jaden was not showing any immediate side effects, Kuro walked away, wrapping his head around the mystery.

-Elsewhere-

Syrus had just gotten into a big heap of doo-doo. He had been caught by the girls in the Girls' Dorm. And what was worse is he was caught in the girls shower room, which was a very big mistake. However, Alexis was there, and she was worried. She asked why he was there. And when he told her about the letter, she was even more concerned. She decided to contact Jaden and challenge him to a duel over his friend.

As soon as Jaden got the page, he contacted Lan, Ryu, and Kuro and asked them to meet them out front of the Slifer Dorm. However, when they got there, Jaden was only able to get a few sentences out before he fell asleep. Lan, ever the detective (and the only reason he was there was to loan Jaden a copy of the Battle City Duels on vid-disc), discovered that the most likely culprit was a sedative, which catches us up with the current event.

END FLASHBACK!

Lan said, "Well, there is no worrying about this now, let's just see who should go in his place. How should we do this, do you think? The usual way?"

Kuro agreed, as did Ryu. The usual way for them to decide something was to rock-paper-scissors for it. And Lan won that contest, so he got to take on Alexis. "Yay, now I can get her member address," he said.

Kuro just did a facepalm and decided to go with him.

-Meanwhile-

The Z-Council meeting room was dark and silent except for a single light over the table. There were a total of 7 figures sitting at the table. Their faces were never shown, instead, replaced with a single chess piece. The Head of the council was the King piece. King spoke to his fellow council members, "We have found him. At last, we have found the son of that accursed Gale Duelist."

The first of the Knight pieces spoke next, "Finally, we can finish what we tried to start in the first place. We failed to get the Crownless King to off his father, but when we succeeded in killing Gale, we did not know his son would be using his deck. Now he has gone into training at the Duel Academy. We can finally send that prick to meet his father."

Queen spoke, with a touch of patience, "But first, we need to see if he is able to access that card. Let's send a representative of the UDAA to test him."

Back at the Duel Academy

Kuro suddenly felt a cold shiver down his spine. It felt like someone had sent a death glare to him. Lan noticed that he had stopped, "What's wrong?"

Kuro explained, "I kinda felt a bad wind blowing. Felt like a force is coming to face us. Well, gotta run, will catch up with you after the duel." As Kuro jogged in the opposite direction, Lan looked at him with confusion.

"Weirdo," said Haseo, looking at Kuro. However, Lan told him to not say a word till during the duel, so they went to the Girl's Dorm at a steady jog.

Kuro waited till Lan was out of earshot then slammed his hand against a tree trunk. "Dammit," he thought, "I thought they would leave me alone. Guess it's time to prepare for the coming storm." However, he needed to be over at the Girl's Dorm soon, so he decided to watch the duel in secret. Luckily he had prepared for this eventuality.

Lan arrived at the Girl's Dorm to find Alexis at the front gate. "Where's Jaden," she asked, with an angry look on her face.

Lan responded, "Jaden was put to sleep by a sedative-loaded cupcake meant for my friend Kuro, so I came in his place."

"Fair enough," sighed Alexis. "Guess Kuro couldn't make it, so you will have to do. If you lose, Syrus will be reported for being a peeping tom."

Syrus objected, "I didn't see anything, so I cannot be called a peeping tom!"

"Sounds reasonable," said Lan. "However, if I win, you gotta give me your member address…" All of a sudden, a dust trail showed up and smacked Lan in the forehead, with a toy mallet. "Sorry, by that I meant your email address."

"Fair enough," said Alexis. Then she motioned him to follow her. She lead him to a lake with two rowboats. Syrus was in one. Lan got in the one with Syrus.

They both rowed out to the middle of the lake and stood up on their boats. However, not too far away, was Crowler, dressed in black, and in the water, watching the duel with confusion. "Why is Lan here and not that dropout boy?" asked Crowler. "Oh, well, if he loses to the queen of the school, he will still get expelled, and that will be one less threat to deal with."

Not too far from him, Kuro was watching the duel from the bank, using a pair of night-vision goggles, and a hearing dish. He knew this duel had a lot of stakes involved, and was willing to keep his distance, because this was Lan's duel. He never really needed help from others.

Chazz was waking past, when he spotted Kuro sitting at the bank of the lake. "What the…. I thought I got it right. He should have been fast asleep after gym class," he thought, and ran back to the Dorm, extremely confused. "Wait, if he didn't get the cupcake, then who….nah."

Duel Start

Lan vs. Alexis

Lan: 4000 LP

Alexis: 4000 LP

-BGM-Edge by See-Saw-

Lan set something on his head and cried out, "Duel Visor, Set on!"

-Pause-

Tech explanation: Duel Visor: This device is for Lan only. Through this device, he can see things a tad differently. Kind of like a tactical computer, but smaller and more powerful. Lan designed this device when he was just a kid. He then had his father build it using a few computers, a small power pack, and a few other devices. This allows him to plan each and every strategy before his opponent makes their moves. However, this also allows him to see his duel spirits, who give him advice as to which tactics would work best.

-Game On-

Lan drew his five cards and motioned Alexis to go on ahead, "Ladies first."

Alexis responded, "At least you are courteous. My turn, Draw!" She drew her card, and it was a trap card called double passé. She then declared, "Next, I summon Etoile Cyber to the field." As this happened, a red and white being, wearing a skirt, appeared on the field. This was Etoile Cyber (1200 attack), one of the Cyber Angels set. "Next, I place one card face down, and end my turn."

Lan was intrigued, but knew what needed to be done. "My turn, so I draw my card," he said as he drew. It was a spell card that he knew would help him out a lot. "Next, I play the spell card "Field keyword randomizer". This allows me, once per turn, to roll three dice. If I get three of the same number, I get the corresponding card type. So go, Randomizer, and show me what I get this turn!" As the card was played onto the field, a giant slot machine popped out of the ground. The lever on the machine moved on its own, and the wheels on the machine (there were three of them) started to spin. One landed on Field. Lane was getting anxious as the next one landed on Field. When the last one landed on Field, Lan declared, "Yes! Now I get to search my deck for a field spell and add it to my hand. So come on out "Delta Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground: The Hulle Granz Cathedral"!" As he did this, a massive cathedral appeared on the field. This was the place where Haseo lost a friend to the villainous Tri-Edge. However, Lan was not done, "Next, I play "Haseo-First Form" in attack position." As this was said, a man wearing black showed up on the field. This was the Terror of Death known as Haseo (1600/900). "However, due to the Cathedral's special effect, all warrior, beast-warrior, and Spell-casters gain a 300 attack point bonus.

Haseo- First Form (1600 1900)

Etoile Cyber (1200 1500)

Lan then decided to attack, "Now Haseo, show her the reason why you are called the Terror of Death! Rengeki Gale Blade!"

Haseo responded, "Yeah, yeah, I got it. Attacking now. Prepare yourself. RENGEKI! Gale Blade!"

How Naïve, ignoring my face-down, Alexis thought to herself. "Reverse card open! Double Passé! This allows me to change the attack to a direct attack, while at the same time allowing me to attack you directly this turn." As this was said, Etoile Cyber dodged the attack as Haseo hit Alexis square in the gut. However, at the same time, Etoile Cyber hit Lan square in the chest. However, when attacking directly, Etoile Cyber gains 600 attack due to her special ability.

Etoile Cyber (1500 2100)

Lan: 4000 1900

Alexis: 4000 2100

Lan couldn't do anything more this turn, so he placed one card face down and ended his turn on that note.

Alexis drew her next card. "I play Blade Skater on the field in attack position," she said, placing a monster card on her side of the field. This time, a figure skater appeared on the field. This was another one of the Cyber Angels, Blade Skater. However, Alexis was far from done, "Next I play Polymerization to fuse both Blade Skater and Etoile Cyber to special summon out Cyber Blader to my side of the field." This time, a red and grey being with blue hair appeared on the field. This was Cyber Balder (2100). However, the Holy Cathedral's effect also gave her a boost.

Cyber Blader (2100 2400)

"Next, Cyber Blader will attack Haseo," declared Alexis. Cyber Blader went into a whirlwind spin, moving towards Haseo, and striking him with one of her Blades.

And Haseo would have been destroyed then and there, if Lan hadn't planned ahead, "I activate my trap card "Piros's Arrival!" This negates an attack on one of my monsters, and allows me to special summon one Piros Monster to the field. So come on out, Piros the Third, and show them your might."

All of a sudden, a series of three rings appeared on the field, and from them appeared a Golden version of Piros. This was Piros the Third (2500/0).

-BGM CHANGE- Piros the Third-

"Yeah! I have arrived to help my friend, Haseo! Let all evil face the Most powerful hero in existence," Piros the Third said as he arrived on the field.

Alexis looked confused, but just for a second, as she placed a card on the field and ended her turn.

Syrus was a tad concerned, seeing Lan on the defensive like that. "Work harder, boss," Syrus said, "You gotta win this one."

One of Alexis's friends who was in the boat with her stated, "My, how bold."

Syrus looked over there and was a tad flustered, "That's not …"

The other one in the boat chimed in as well, "How would you like to try swimming naked?"

Now Syrus was upset, "Sexual Harassment!"

The other one decided to go for the throat, so to speak, "You're one to talk, peeping tom."

Syrus was now really upset, "I SAW NOTHING!"

Lan was getting riled up, as he drew his card. It was just the card he needed to get this battle going, but he decided to take caution in this turn because Alexis had placed a card in the spell or trap field. "I activate the Randomizer," he declared and the slot machine started turning again. This time, it hit all trap, and Lan pulled a "Negate Attack" and placed it on his field. "Next, I play the spell card "Job Extension". This allows me to send Haseo-First Form to the graveyard to special summon Haseo-Second Form to the field. So come on out, my friend."

As this was said, Haseo's armor started to change shape, gaining gold parts as it became more like armor. This was Haseo's second form, only granted after passing the job extension test (2450/600). However, Lan also decided to bring out another monster this turn.

Haseo- Second Form (2450 2750)

Lan declared, "I tribute Piros the Third to summon Kuhn to my side of the field in attack mode." As Piros the Third disappeared from the field, a guy wearing loose clothing and carrying a pistol appeared on the field. This was Kuhn (2400/1900), one of the members of the Serpent's Path Group.

Kuhn (2400 2700)

"Well, Well, Well, look what we have here. A bevy of beautiful girls in a single boat. Go easy on them boss but don't lose," said Kuhn.

"Yeah, yeah, I know," said Lan as he looked at the field. "Now, because I special summoned Haseo to the field, I can't attack with him, so Kuhn, attack and destroy Cyber Blader."

However, Alexis was one step ahead, "Not so fast, reverse card open." She had played Negate attack. This prevented an attack and ended the Battle phase. Lan grunted, placed one card face down and ended his turn.

Alexis drew her card. "I play the equip spell "Fusion Weapon". This spell can only be equipped to a fusion monster, but gives it a 1200 attack point boost."

Cyber Blader (2400 3600)

Lan was amazed. Alexis, however, decided to end the game there. "Cyber Blade, attack Kuhn."

However, Lan was ready for this, "Trap card, Activate! Negate Attack allows me to negate the attack of a monster and end that battle phase. So no attack for you. Come back later."

Alexis gritted her teeth and ended her turn. Lan drew his last card. He smiled when he saw it.

"Sorry to have to do this to you Alexis, but…..

RENGEKI FINISH!

Everyone in the area who heard that flinched. This was Lan's final turn, which meant that he had exactly what he needed to win. "Tell me something, Alexis," said Lan, "Do you remember when I asked the proctor if he knew the poem "The Epitaph of Twilight"?"

When Alexis nodded, Lan continued, "Well, after the second net incident, Cyber connect was able to salvage the data of the Cursed Waves and turn them into a race of creatures called Avatars. They then added them to several characters in the second reincarnation of the game "The World". Kuhn's is called "Magus: the Propagator". And I just happen to have drawn him this turn. So, I tribute Kuhn from my side of the field to special summon "Magus: The Propagator" to the field."

Kuhn doubled over, as if in pain, "Come on, I'm Right here, come on out. MYYYYYY MAGUSSSSSSSSS!" All of a sudden, the skies around the field changed into a strange digital field. And in the spot where Kuhn was once standing, a strange monster that looked like a humanoid carrying a gun stood. This was one of the more powerful Avatars, Magus (2800/2000)

Then Lan let Alexis know of it's abilities, "When this monster comes out to the field, spells and traps cannot be activated. And once per turn, I can discard my entire hand to negate the effect of one spell on the field and destroy it. So, I send my entire hand to the graveyard to destroy your fusion weapon."

As Alexis, Crowler, and Kuro watched, the Fusion weapon attached to Cyber Blader was destroyed in a fizzle of electricity. Lan decided to press the advantage, "Sorry, Alexis, but I gotta go for it. I activate my second face-down, Data Drain. You saw this one in action, so you know the drill."

Alexis played her monster, another Etoile Cyber. Lan went for the finish, "Now, Magus, attack with hyper shot."

Magus lifted one of it's arms and lined up a shot on Etoile Cyber, and pulled the trigger. The shot hit Etoile Cyber in the gut, destroying it and dealing 1400 damage. However, Lan was not done, "Now, Haseo, your turn. Attack her life points directly with Rengeki, Tri-Strike!"

Haseo ran up to Alexis, and pulled out his heavy blade, "RENGEKI! TRI-STRIKE!" He swung his blade in a triangular pattern, striking Alexis three times, dealing 2750 damage and ending the duel.

Duel End

Results:

Lan : 1900 LP

Alexis: 0 LP

Lan Wins

Now according to the stipulations, Lan and Syrus were free to go, this whole situation forgotten. However, Crowler was upset. However, he was too tired to complain, so he returned to the dorm.

Alexis watched as the two guys returned to shore. She smiled and sent Lan an email to his duel pager. Now she would contact him when she wanted a rematch. However, she would really like to see how his friends did in a duel against her.

As soon as Lan got to shore, he was greeted by Kuro, who told him he had found the culprit for the loaded cupcake. Lan decided to forget about it and return to the dorm to get some sleep.

-Later that night-

Lan woke up in a sweat, having just had a bad dream. In the dream, he was watching as his father was being crucified in front of a crowd. There in front of him, were the heads of his friends, and in cheering on in front of his father was a small big-nosed fiend, wearing green, and riding a hover vehicle.

Lan then opened his window and breathed in the cold air. It was gonna be a very long year.

-MEANWHILE-

In a dark alley, a figure dressed in a trench coat, was talking to another figure, this one dressed in a business dress. A briefcase was exchanged, and the businesswoman walked away. Then the trench coat turned around and faced a duelist who was waiting on him. A few minutes later, the duelist was found in the alley, comatose, as the other guy just walked away. No-one knew who he was, just that the guy he just faced was dead, but not by any normal means.

"Well, it looks like the son of the crownless king and the son of the 6-turn King have been located," he said taking a cigarette and lighting it. As he drew a good long breath, he thought about all the fun times he had with the crownless king. And now he had to do the unthinkable, by killing his son's best friend, and in doing so, fulfill his boss's deepest desires. And to think that his boss used to work for justice.

This was one of the members of the UDAA, a group of duelists who did some dastardly deeds for the mysterious Z-Council. An arm of the evil group, this group of duelist assassins dealt with those considered undesirable to the Z-Council. How would Kuro, Lan, and Ryu deal with such a threat?

Well, that was a great fight. Now to the most important part of the chapter: the explanation. First thing is to explain to those who are not familiar with the cards used by Lan: they are based off a game series created by Namco games by the Cyber Connect group called Dot Hack. The first series was made up of 4 games: dot Hack/ Infection, dot Hack/ Mutation, etc. I don't remember them all off the top of my head. The cards used in this chapter were from the dot Hack/ G.U. series. Also there have been many series and manga from the series.

And now for the cards introduced in this chapter. This is the first time I only had to do the one deck, so please bear with me on the spelling of the field spell.

Side Note: the BGM changes to the Prios the Third Theme

First up on the rant is the reason for such a short chapter. The only reason I did this chapter so short is because I was having trouble getting all the points of this story going. Now for the fun chapter. In the next chapter, the monthly duel exams are up, and that means new rare cards.

Second on the list is the new 3DS and Deadpool game. First off, for those of you who don't know, Project X-Zone is a major crossover game featuring characters from the Namco, Sega, and Capcom brands. This game is a tactics game, so if you have the required game system, check it out.

Next, is the new Deadpool game. I only bring this up now because I would like to see someone try to make a Deadpool-inspired deck for this story. The funny thing is that the deck would have to follow his abilities and personality.

I am pleased to announce that as of this week, two decks have been filled for this season. The Daikaiju deck is currently being built, and the Kamen Rider deck is being selected. Also needing a Sentai deck, so that the Tokusatsu deck set from Toei is complete, and a new deck list for the season is needed. And if anyone can do it, a Garo deck is also accepted.

The rules are as follows:

When designing a deck, have an idea of what you want it to be in your head.

If you think the deck you created is too complex, it probably is and you need to fix that.

Cards should have attack and defense based off their levels. Example, level 4 monsters should never have an attack over 2000

Make sure that effect monsters are not TOO powerful for their level.

No "Broken" decks.

Final: When you are done, post your deck, and character on your profile, send us a review, and send a sample card to my inbox via private message.

Now for the decks I am personally looking for. To be fair, I will only consider Naruto and Bleach for season 2, so you guys can keep your decks on standby till I let you know. Also, If you are making a Superman deck, go ahead and let me know about it as soon as I let you know. Same with the Goku Deck. This is gonna be only for the school duel, so both decks will only be shown for that one chapter and they will disappear after that.

Ultraman

Garo

Any other tokusatsu decks

Super Sentai Decks

Xenomorph

Doctor Who

Gundam

Ace Combat

Ishinomori Tribute Deck

Red Dwarf

Super Robot Deck

Superman

Dragonball Z (If you decide to add God form, you will be banned)

Guyver

Gurren Lagann

Deadpool (Yes, you can use the game as a reference)

Also, send me any deck ideas you got to share, and get started.

A fair warning to all those who like Superman or Goku: I am not a fan of either, but I grew up with them. However, I will not tolerate any fanrage over who I decide to win that duel. This is for the sake of entertainment, not to decide who would win. If you send a review saying I should do a rematch with Goku's God Form, I will tell you off. You do not get to choose who wins. I personally would like to see it end in a draw. However, I gotta be fair and allow both sides to be represented in this clash of heroes.

Now for the last bits. This is my last rant for the chapter. I hope you enjoy this chapter, seeing as how I took WAY TOO LONG to get it written out. For that, I apologize. I have been busy, with a birthday for my nephew, getting ready to mow lawns again, and trying to find cards for a decent Dinosaur deck. Also, I started watching a series called Top Gear. Very fun show about cars and vehicles. You get to see celebrities drive a reasonably priced car around a track to see how fast they can go. All different types of stars have been on the show.

Preview for the next chapter: The Exams are up and so are the new rare cards. However, someone is stealing cards from others and it is up to Ryu to confront him. Then, Lan faces off against a breach in the 4th wall. And finally, the ultimate clash between Japanese and American superheroes begins as Raizou and his Dark Avengers dare to challenge Kuro and the Metal Heroes in a clash of power.

This is the lineup of next chapter's duels:

First up is the duel between Chazz and Jaden in an epic clash between two different dorms. How will Jaden defeat Chazz's new VWXYZ Monsters?

Next: Ryu must face off against the thief known as Kaito and his toolbox warrior deck that includes characters from the new 3DS game Project X-Zone. Will Ryu be able to stop the card thief from claiming his Ryu and Ken cards?

Third: Lan and his no-nonsense dot Hack team must face off against the 4 wall destroying inhabitants of the netherworld of the Disgaea series. Can he stop the Disgaea cast from destroying the wall separating the duel and reality?

And finally: Kurogane must once again contend against Raizou and the Dark Avengers in the ultimate clash of East versus West. Whose deck of heroes will come out on top? And Why does Norman Osborne always keep coming back from the grave? And Why does Raizou want to face off against Kuro so badly?

Also will be adding a theme to this season. Just give me time to find a theme, a translation, and a picture.
