Chapter 3: Daisuke's Battle
Day has passed since Gao has won his buddyfight against Tasuku and everything has been normal. It's morning time and Daisuke was walking over to Gao's house since he wanted to give Gao his homework he left at class. As for Ryuuga he went on ahead to the Dragon World to train his apprentice and won't be back for an hour.
As Daisuke walked, he was looking up at the sky trying to think. "Ryuuga...Just why would you wanted to train an apprentice for." Daisuke looks back down to his hand to read off a piece of papers with lines drawn on it to look like a map, "Good thing I got the address from the professor. Glad that he gives it to me with my paycheck."
Daisuke gives another sigh as hhe though back to the events yesterday. After taking a few more steps, he stops in front of a classic two story house with the name plate MIKADO in front of it. Daisuke looks back down at his map before looking back up at the house. "I guess this is the place..." hHe walked up to the front door and knocks. "Hello, is anyone here?"
Footsteps can be heard before the door opened and yet no one is in view. Daisuke gave a blank face before shaking her face to calm down. "Okay, this is the first time I entered one of my student's home. I hope his family is friendly."
A poke to his stomach made his lunch back with fear and surprise before falling into the ground. Something wooden pokes him in the head making him look up to see a small elder lady holding a broom. Daisuke gets up as she stares at the elder in front of him. "Excuse me, is this the Mikado residence?"
The elder just nods as she points her broom to inside meaning for Daisuke to go in. Daisuke just nods at her before walking inside the house. The inside was modern just like the outside and as she looks into the living room, he found almost the whole family in there. "Is there something going on?"
"No, they are just watching Asmodai's dance show as usual."
A voice is heard from behind making Daisuke jump and turn to see a young lady with turquoise hair tied to a low ponytail which meant she was Gao's mom. "Hello, you must be Mr. Masamune, Gao and Hanako told me about you." Gao's mom puts out her hand.
Daisuke takes out his hand and takes hold of the other hand as he shook it. "Yes that's me, I apologize for coming over so suddenly."
"Oh no that's okay, it's good to know what kind of friends my son has." Gao's mom takes back her hand as she makes a punching hand motion with a fire around her. "Especially those who he owe~"
Daisuke just backed up as the flame got bigger and bigger. 'I'm guess his mother is one scary woman.'
"Follow me to the kitchen." Gao's mom begins to walk.
Daisuke just looks back at the family doing the moonwalk before turning back to the mom and following after her. As he enters the kitchen, Gao's mom was back at the counter top cutting some vegetables. "I'm sorry breakfast isn't ready yet, you may sit down and wait if you'd like."
"No it's okay, if it's aright, may I be our assistance for this?" Daisuke walked over and stood next to Gao's mom.
"Oh I can't let you do that, you're a guest in the Mikado house."
"I insist, plus I always wanted to try to cook my own breakfast, besides how hard could it be to cook for a family." Daisuke grabs a spare apron from nearby and ties it to his neck and waist.
"Well I guess I can't stop you now." Gao's mom turns to a pot on the stove. "Can you go and check out the pasta cooking in the pot over there?"
Daisuke nods before walking over to the pot. For a few minutes, Gao's mom had Daisuke help cooked the pasta, omelet rice, and the fish for breakfast as she did the rest. Eventually, the duo cooks were able to finish cooking and were setting the table for the rest of the family. Gao's mom wipes the sweat off her forehead before turning to the family. "Breakfast is ready!"
The whole family turned to them as they went to the table, "Man, what a feast!" Gao said excitedly, "Is it someone's birthday or something?"
Gao did his greeting as he was about to take the food but his mother stopped him, "I made all of this for drum and for your teacher!" She said.
"Huh? For us?" Daisuke referred to him and Drum.
"Yes." She replied, "Since I didn't know what you two really like, I thought I cooked up my specialties."
"I've gotta tell ya, Drum." Gao's Dad said, "You really surprised us yesterday." Drum sat down as they remember when Drum ate as he went up the roof and burst the flames out his mouth. The family was surprised of seeing that.
"My boss didn't believe me. When I told him, there have been a fire-breathing dragon on my roof." he said.
"It's because Hana gave him jalapeno's again." Gao mentioned.
"It's not that hot." Hana sarcastically.
"Well you don't eat the whole container here." She said, "Never in the million years, did I think that Gao would bring a buddy monster home with one take."
"Tell me about it." Daisuke agrees, "Never expected Gao to get not just the Buddy Monster but also defeating Tasuku Ryuenji in a Buddyfight. People were amazed for that."
"I was there watched the whole match!" Anna said, "It was the coolest I have ever seen! He did his Mighty Sun Fighter's beat and-" But then she was interrupted by Gao as he covered her mouth.
"Uhhh, she's just kidding." Gao said nervously.
Drum looked at something and asked, "What's this called?" He hold up a glass with a dessert on it.
She replied, "It's my homemade pudding. Try it, you might like it." She offered as Drum sniffed at it and ate the pudding. He was amazed with the taste of pudding. Gao's mother was relived as she wanted to make another batch for him when he gets back from school. Drum was happy. Daisuke was satisfied for seeing Drum eating then he continued eating.
At the morning, Daisuke was at his apartment as he looked at the calendar, "Hm, today's the day that students will be in a different class for today. Guess that means I won't be around for them for awhile." He took out deck expecting for Ryuuga to return, "I should get back on business collecting more cards."
He opened up his closet containing his disguise for his missions. It was a black jacket with scales on it, pants, a black cape, including the mask for his eyes to hide his identify and wears a bandanna with a dragon world's mark on it. As he put on his disguise and he heads out to the rooftop waiting for Ryuuga to arrive.
"Where is he? He should've been back by now." He complained.
He waited and waited until he saw the spark of light shines towards him as Ryuuga appears, "Hey, Daisuke. I'm back."
"You're late, Ryuuga. So, how did it go with your apprentice?" He asked him.
"Oh, it was great. He's a fast learner. Maybe someday, he'll become the dragon fighter and join us someday." Ryuuga smiled as he recommended.
Daisuke turns, "I have no need for newbies. For now, we need to get on schedule." Daisuke reminded him as he holds the paper, "According to this. The next criminal is located at the construction site. Apparently, he's planning to destroy the building in that area." He explained the information.
"So, what are we going to do?" Ryuuga asked.
"What we usually do, you idiot. Battling him and taking our prize." Daisuke remind him of his objective.
"Oh right. I guess we better go there."
"Then let's go!" Daisuke said as he runs and jumps the apartment as the buddy skill activates, giving him jet boots and wears the core gadget, the glove on his left hand.
(You can decide what criminal would look like.)
At the construction site, the criminal appears with his core gadget, the drill. And with his buddy, Chimera, they are preparing to wreak havoc. "Hahaha! I enjoy destruction. Who's going to stop me now?"
"I am." The criminal heard the voice as Daisuke appears with his disguise as he landed on the ground with Ryuuga stand behind him.
"And who are you suppose to be? You're not one of the buddy police, are you?" he asked him as the Masked Dragon replies, "Don't lump me in with those brats. You may call me the Masked Dragon. Because as of today," he raise his left hand, "Your card will be mine." He descend it and pointed to Chimera.
The criminal smiled evily, "We'll see about that."
Then they began their battle as the criminal said his chant, "Crush them down, Danger Beast luminize!"
"Lend me the strength of the thousand dragons, Dragonic Fighters luminize!"
"Time to raise the flag!" Both exclaimed.
"Danger World!" He hold his flag.
"Dragon World!" Ryuuga stabs the flag into the ground.
"I don't know who you are within mask, but you don't have what it takes to defeat me." Criminal laughed.
The Masked Dragon smiled, "Oh, we'll see about that." He begun his charge and draw by moving the card into the gauge and take the card from his core gadget that is the glove, "I call the right position, Dragonic Hero, Hayabusa!"
Hayabusa has appeared to the right, "Prepare yourself!"
"Hayabusa, attack the fighter!" He commanded his monster as Hayabusa attacked him with his claymore, given him 2 damage. It was the end of turn until it was the criminal's turn.
He did his draw and charge and draw as he calls out, Armor Knight Ogre and then equips himself with Boulder Piercing Spear and then he ordered Ogre to perform the link attack to attack the fighter, given Daisuke 4 damage and has 6 damage left.
Next, it's the Masked Dragon's turn as he begun his draw and charge and draw, "Next, to the left, Dragonic Fighter, Beowulf!" Beowulf appears on the left, the similar form of Beowulf but younger in the Legend World, "Next, I equipped myself with Dragonic Strike Fist." He equips himself with the fist and pays one damage for activating it with the fist as Daisuke jumps into the center.
"Beowulf, perform the link attack with Hayabusa and attack Armor Knight Ogre!" He commanded both of them as they perform their link attack with Hayabusa slashing and Beowulf using his claw to scratch him.
"Now, it's my turn! I attack you with my fist!" He runs towards the criminal as he used his uppercut attack, "Dragonnnnic." The criminal tries to avoid it but couldn't do it on time, "Uppercut!" He gave him two damage as he has 6 damage left and then Daisuke gets one gauge for attacking.
The criminal was frustrated, "Damn you. You do think that you can actually defeat me with your monster?!"
The Masked Dragon laughs loudly and said to him, "Of course, I am. The Dragonic Fighters are the ones that gave me strength, strong enough to destroy the criminals." he pointed at him, "starting with you."
It was the criminal's turn next as he calls out another Armor Knight Ogre to the left. and called his buddy, Chimera to the center to protect him and gave him one life point, giving him 7 life points now, "Ogre, attack the monster on the left!" The ogre attacks Beowulf as Beowulf's defeated, "Next, Chimera, perform a link attack and attack Hayabusa!" They perform the link attack as Hayabusa's defeated. The criminal laughed, "How about that?! You have no monsters to defend you. What are you going to do about that?''
The Masked Dragon smiled, "Oh, it's just the beginning." The criminal was confused, 'Huh, why's that?" he asked as the Masked Dragon replied, "Because the next turn will be your final climax!"
It's now his turn as he begun his draw and charge and draw then he noticed something strange in his hand, "What's this?" He saw another dragonic card but doesn't remember when he got it then he realized something, "Ryuuga? Care to explain?" He asked him as Ryuuga replied, "Well, he wanted to surprised you by proving himself he can fight as a Dragonic Fighter. Please give him a chance."
Daisuke gave it some thought and nodded, "Very well, let's see if he can really prove himself. But first," He change his plan to start with his buddy, "I call my buddy to the right, Dragonic Fighter, Ryuuga!"
"Alright!" Ryuuga was motivated as he runs and jumps to the right and Daisuke gains one life point, "Next, I call to the left, Dragonic Kid, Daigo."
Daigo appears to the right, his appearance is that he's the kid size of Ryuuga, "Alright, I'm ready for this, Master."
Ryuuga nodded, "Yes, you are."
"Ryuuga! Perform the link attack with me!" The Masked Dragon ordered, "Right!" Both run towards the criminal, "When my buddy performs the link attack, he gains 2000 power additional!" as they jumped as Ryuuga does his kick attack and Daisuke does his punch attack as they exclaimed together, "Cross Attack!" They attacked the Chimera, "And since I attacked the monster, I can penatrate!" He used his Dragonic uppercut and then gave him 2 damages leaving him 5 damage remains, "And since it's successful, my partner gains one gauge!" Ryuuga explains as another gauge is added and now has 6 gauge.
"Ready for the final attack, guys?" Daisuke asked Ryuuga and Daigo as they nodded for agreement. "Final Phase! Impact!" He raised his fist up high, "Ryuuga! Daigo! Lend me your power!" Ryuuga and Daigo jumped as they became spirits and emerged their powers into his fist, "By paying three gauge and sacrificing my two dragonic monsters..." The gauge goes into the fist, "You will take 5 damages and additionally, all your monsters are destroyed and you will take additional damage for each monster that was destroyed."
"What?!" The criminal was surprised for hearing the effects, Daisuke prepares for his final phase by running and jumped again, "Take this! Fist of the Thousand Dragons!" He throws his fist as the dragon spirits appeared out of his fist, thousands of them attacked Ogre and then the dragons attack the criminal, giving him an utterly defeat.
GAME OVER, WINNER MASKED DRAGON
"And that's that." Daisuke said as the criminal was unconscious, "Gah..."
Daisuke took off his mask as he walks closely to him, "And now..." He took out his core deck case as he searched in his deck, "Ah..." He pull out the card he wanted to add, "Another card added. As for the rest..." He threw the deck on him, scattering the cards.
"Daisuke, you should know that's a bit rude." Ryuuga recommended as Daisuke threw a punch at him, "Idiot, don't say my name." He pointed at the criminal, "He maybe knocked out but he's half-conscious. He could give the buddy police a hint or worse."
Ryuuga felt bad and said, "Sorry, but are you sure we should keep going about this? Aren't we the ones who are criminals?" Daisuke turns, "I don't want to talk about the reason why we're doing this. For now, let's just continue on and finish our objective. Let's go home." Daisuke heads back home and Ryuuga follows and remembers something, "Hey, Daisuke. Aren't we forgetting something?"
Daisuke thinks and then realized he forget to give Gao his homework and scream loudly.
Smoke appears as Daisuke and Ryuuga appears, "Welcome back for more..." Ryuuga interrupts, "Cards by me and Daisuke."
"Will you stop interrupting me, you idiot?" Daisuke was frustrated.
"Sorry." Ryuuga apologized as he snaps the finger for the next card.
The impact card was revealed with the picture of Daisuke throwing his fist with the spirit dragons appeared out. Daisuke explains, "This is my impact card, I created. It's called the Fist of the Thousand Dragons. With the effect of this, by paying three gauge and sacrificing two cards with the dragonics in its name, the opponent takes 5 damage and gets additional damage for each monster that will be destroyed by this card. It's also a useful card even if it can hurt you a little."
"A little?" Ryuuga said sarcastically.
"Don't push it." Daisuke said as he snaps his finger for the next one, "Next, this is the next Dragonic monster called, Dragonic Berserker, Kaie. His power is 7000 and defense is 5000. He's a size 3 monster with 2 critical, the call cost is to pay 2 Gauge and Put up to 2 cards with Dragonic in their name from your hand to this card's soul. His effect is Berserk Blast which will allow me pay 1 gauge. Destroy a monster on your opponent's field and inflict 2 damage to your opponent! But I can only activate this skill once per turn. His appearance is a tan skinned muscular human with black tattoos that resembles a dragon on both arms. He wears black scaled armor gauntlets and helmet that nearly covers his head, only showing his mouth and green eyes. He also wears red clothing with black insignias all over it. He doesn't say anything but roars whenever he attacks or grunts in certain situations."
"That's a long explanation there, Daisuke. You really are acting like a real teacher." Ryuuga laughed for amusement.
Daisuke sighed as he placed his hand on face, "That's all I can say. So long, everyone." He waved everyone good bye as Ryuuga tries to comfort him and apologize as the screen fades black.
