Kizakura: it's my turn now, I shall call my Security Guardian and Sword Dancer Angel

Sword Dancer Angel grade 2 8000 power/guard 5000

Kizakura mind: Angel, she gains 1000 power each time I draw. I got Luck Bird and Dark Cat. With Dark Cat I will have more power to boost with plus a card to draw. But Blaster will have another card in his hand as well.

Kizakura: I shall call Luck Bird also to the field.

Luck Bird Grade 1 5000 power/guard 5000

Kizakura: Luck Bird skill, by soul blast 2 of my cards from my vanguard circle, I get to draw one card from my deck.

Kizakura moves the 2 cards from her soul to drop zone and draws a card. Her hand contain now 4 cards.

Kizakura: now for Sword Dancer Angel skill. Whenever I draw a card from my deck, she gains 1000 plus.

Sword Dancer Angel 8000 + 1000 = 9000 power

Blaster: another combo.

Maka: your sister s quite a fighter.

Andrew: she plays the game for a long time now, normally she is even stronger then this.

Maka: hmm…too bad you don't have her strength otherwise we might had a shot at the underground circuit.

Andrew lowered his head with a thunder cloud above his head, Maka looked at him and noticed he just insulted Andrew skills and made a awkward smile on his face.

Maka: sorry…

Kizakura: now for my attack, I attack your titan with my guardian!

Security Guardian 8000 power versus Matchless Trench Titan 8000 power

Blaster mind: again a rear guard attack, but this time I got a card to spare.

Blaster: I guard it with Sea Otter Soldier of Pyroxene Communication [ Guard 5000 ]

Kizakura: now for Sakuya to attack your vanguard with her beautiful petals.

Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 10000 power versus Marine General of the Restless Tides, Algos 9000 power

Blaster mind: with Titan I can use my intercept with it's skill of 5000 + guard.

Kizakura: Sakuya skill

Blaster: what?

Kizakura: while my hand is at 4, Sakuya gains 4000 power during my turn.

Blaster mind: no…now I need 15000 guard to be sure it won't hit.

Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 14000 power versus Marine General of the Restless Tides, Algos 9000 power

Blaster: no guard

Kizakura: twin drive, first check.

Blaster: damage check

[ Damage Check ] Vital Anchor, David [ No Trigger ]

Kizakura: now for Luck Bird to boost and attack with Angel!

Sword Dancer Angel 14000 power versus Marine General of the Restless Tides, Algos 9000 power

Blaster mind: I can use titan intercept skill to guard that, but…

Blaster looked over to his damage that is now at 3

Blaster mind: if I don't reach 4 I can't use limit break…what should I do?...

Kizakura: what will it be Blaster?

Blaster: no guard

Maka: uh?

Andrew:…he's going for it.

Blaster: damage check

[ Damage Check ] Tear Knight, Cyprus [ No Trigger ]

Kizakura mind: odd, he could have guard it…why would he?

Kizakura eyes widens and noticed his damage is at 4 now.

Kizakura mind: what a bold guy, he let the attack hit…

Kizakura

Hand: 7

Damage: 3

Flipped damage: 0

Blaster: stand and draw.

Blaster drew his card and then changed his eyes sight to a other card.

Kizakura: hm?

Blaster mind: this ones for you Roy…

Blaster closed his eyes and reached his card. He then opened his eyes once again with build up confidence with a tense glare. Kizakura flinched from it and gulped from the reaction.

Blaster: In the name of justice appear from the Sea, I shall punish all who is evil in their hearts, I ride, Naval Gazer Dragon.

Naval Gazer Dragon grade 3 10000 power/guard 0

Kizakura: Naval Gazer Dragon?...

Blaster: Naval Gazer Dragon, limit break!

Blaster flipped over his 2 cards from the damage zone face down.

Blaster: during this turn my vanguard gains 3000 +

Naval Gazer Dragon 10000 + 3000 = 13000 power

Kizakura mind: strong vanguard, but with his line up now, he can't do much anyway.

Blaster: now for my unites. I call forth these four!

Kizakura: what!?

Blaster: Vital Anchor, David, Tear Knight, Theo, Battle Siren, Dorothea and Accelerated Commando call!

Vital Anchor, David grade 3 10000 power/guard 0

Tear Knight, Theo grade 1 8000 power/guard 5000

Battle Siren, Dorothea grade 1 6000 power/guard 5000

Accelerated Commando grade 1 6000 power/guard 5000

Kizakura mind: he had a squad all a long…can't believe he manage to keep the pressure going.

Blaster: Accelerated Commando skill, for this turn, my titan gains 2000 + power

Matchless Trench Titan 8000 + 2000 = 10000 power

Kizakura mind: damn…what should I do?

Kizakura calculates the line up total power and the odds. In her eyes she can see the numbers going higher and higher.

Kizakura mind: his rear unites are weaker, but what worries me is his vanguard limit break. I have to stop that attack.

Blaster: Commando boosted, Titan attack!

Matchless Trench Titan 16000 power versus Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 10000 power

Kizakura: Security Guardian shall intercept that [ guard 5000 ].

Blaster: that won't be enough

Kizakura: actually it is, with it's skill his guard goes up by 5000 when intercept for a Oracle Think Tank unit.

Blaster mind: S Special Intercept…but still!

Blaster: Theo Boosted, David attack!

Vital Anchor, David 18000 power versus Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 10000 power

Kizakura mind: I can guard that with my Magus

Blaster: counterblast

Kizakura: uh?

Blaster: when David attacks, his power goes up by 3000.

Vital Anchor, David 21000 power versus Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 10000 power

Kizakura mind: more power…I will lose 15000 guard to guard that one…if he gets a critical will be done. But the skill of his vanguard his what worries me the most.

Blaster: what will it be?

Kizakura mind: there is still another option.

Kizakura: no guard, damage check

[ Damage Check ] Oracle Guardian, Wiseman [ No Trigger ]

Kizakura mind: no trigger this time…damn

Blaster: Dorothea boosted.

Kizakura mind: but his attack combined is still 19000 power. I can use my two Magus to over guard his attack.

Blaster: skill activated.

Kizakura mind: a skill!?

Blaster: when this is the third battle this unit boost vanguard, it's power goes up by 4000 +

Battle Siren, Dorothea 6000 + 4000 = 10000 power

Kizakura: n-no way

Blaster: same goes for Naval Gazer Dragon, when it's his third or more attack, it's power goes up by 3000

Naval Gazer Dragon 13000 + 3000 = 16000 power

Naval Gazer Dragon 26000 power versus Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 10000 power

Andrew: that power!

Maka: he-he it's the same as Roy Garmore and Charjgal combo

Kizakura mind: damn, no chance but to do this!

Kizakura: I guard with two Lozenge Magus [ 20000 guard ] and Oracle Guardian, Nike [ 10000 guard ]

Maka: 40000 guard?

Andrew: my sis doesn't want his vanguard to hit at all cost.

Maka: still, such defence…

Blaster: twin drive, first check

[ Drive Check ] Battleship Intelligence [ Critical Trigger ]

Maka: critical trigger…damn if only it would be useful…

Andrew: indeed, with my sis at 4 damage, critical trigger will damage her by 2 and lose the game.

Kizakura: it's too bad you already attacked with your rears, of course your vanguard would be weaker if you didn't attack it for the third time.

Blaster: I will win.

Kizakura: hmm? What was that?

Blaster: I will give all the effect to my powered up Titan.

Matchless Trench Titan 10000 + 5000 = 15000 power. 1 + 1 = 2 critical

Blaster: I won't let you have one of my teammates that easy. Second check!

[ Drive Check ] Dolphin Soldier of High Speed Raids [ Stand Trigger ]

Kizakura: stand trigger!?

Maka: yes! Now one of his unites gets to attack!

Blaster: all the effect to my Titan.

Matchless Trench Titan 15000 + 5000 = 20000 power

Kizakura mind: double trigger, I can't believe he got that lucky.

Blaster: now for Titan to attack your vanguard!

Matchless Trench Titan 20000 power versus Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 10000 power

Kizakura mind: I have no choice, I will lose if I get hit by that!

Kizakura: I guard with Victory Maker [ Guard 5000 ], Battle Sister, Maple [ guard 5000 ] and Oracle Guardian, Gemini [ guard 5000 ]

Kizakura mind: I used up 7 guards this round…next turn…

Blaster

Hand: 5

Damage: 4

Flipped damage: 3

Unflipped damage: 1

Andrew: this is it…

Maka: uh?

Andrew: if Blaster can survive the attacks of my sister. He wins.

Maka: e-eh? But that's too soon to tell

Andrew: I agree, but with Blaster vanguard skill it's power will go up by 26000 power again. Even if she attacks his rear attacks. The back row unites can still attack in their place for the third attack.

Maka: your surprisingly smart today.

Andrew: uh?...well…that's because I don't want Blaster to lose.

Maka: you and me both.

Andrew: uh?

Maka: you may have been a teammate for just a few days, but…we are a team now and we should support each other.

Andrew: Maka…

Maka: now it's her turn.

Kizakura: I want to congratulate you by surprising me from your double trigger.

Blaster: with your hand at 1 now, you won't get Sakuya skill to activate for a 4000 power bonus.

Kizakura: true, but that doesn't mean I will give up so easily as well.

Kizakura set off a smile as well Blaster does the same

Maka: hmm

Maka smiled with a curious hum

Andrew: Maka?

Maka: such a good atmosphere around those two.

Andrew: EH!?

Maka: they both don't want to lose, so they will give everything in their power to beat the opponent.

Kizakura: draw.

Kizakura mind: Dark Cat…I didn't want to use it. But…without it I wont put up a good fight.

Kizakura: I call Dark Cat to field. With it's skill. Both players can draw a card as long I have a Oracle Think Tank as my vanguard clan.

Dark Cat grade 1 7000 power/guard 5000

They both drew a card and Blaster suddenly noticed something.

Blaster mind: Dark Cat, a risky card that can increase your hand but also your opponent. With that effect, Sword Dance Angel power goes up by 1000 again due to a draw.

Sword Dance Angel 8000 + 1000 = 9000 power

Kizakura: I didn't want to use it.

Blaster: hmm?

Kizakura: it might cost me the fight, but…

Kizakura looked over to Andrew and smiled. She then looked at Blaster with her stance going straight.

Kizakura: I don't want my big brother to see me lose easily!

Andrew: sis…

Kizakura: I shall call one more unit, Oracle Guardian, Wiseman call.

Oracle Guardian, Wiseman grade 2 10000 power/guard 5000

Kizakura: I only got one card left. But I will go full force.

Blaster: then let's bring it.

Kizakura mind: he has 2 10000 guards and 2 unknown cards. Plus a intercept with 5000 + bonus…max is 30000 but with his 2 other cards remaining, there is no telling what he draws out.

Kizakura: here I come, Luck bird boosted. Sword Dance Angel attacks your Titan.

Sword Dancer Angel 14000 power versus Matchless Trench Titan 8000

Blaster mind: if she attacked against my vanguard that would only be 5000 guard for me to block. So now I will lose a 10000 guard no matter what.

Blaster: no guard.

Kizakura: now for Dark Cat boost and attack with Sakuya!

Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 17000 power versus Navalgazer Dragon 10000 power

Blaster mind: with her hand at 1, she can't get 4 cards at hand…unless she gets a draw from it.

Blaster: I will guard with Battleship Intelligence [ Guard 10000 ] & Dolphin Soldier of High Speed Raids. [ Guard 10000 ]

Kizakura: twin drive…

Kizakura mind: my last chance

Kizakura: first check

[ Drive Check ] Victory Maker [ Draw Trigger ]

Kizakura: Like I said, I will give it my all now. To get my brother back.

Blaster: likewise, but I'm not battling only due to your brother

Kizakura: then what are you fighting for?

Blaster: to become stronger and a leader for my team.

Kizakura: I see…but why trying so hard?

Blaster: hmm?

Kizakura: there are a bunch of other teams or teammates, why keeping him?

Blaster: because he is our friend now.

Kizakura: friend or not, family comes first. I will get him back. All to vanguard.

Kizakura: plus one card to draw.

Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 17000 + 5000 = 22000 power

Kizakura place her fingers on the edge of the top card.

Kizakura: it comes down to this. Once I drive check. My hand will be 4 again. Meaning Sakuya gains 4000 + power.

Blaster: you will need another trigger to pass my defence.

Kizakura: now let's see. What the future is of my brother.

Kizakura picked up her card slowly. Blaster focused on the card with high expatiation while Maka and Andrew sitting almost on the edge of their chairs.

[ Drive Check ] Meteorbreak Wizard [ No Trigger ]

Kizakura sighed of the card and puts it back into her hand. She closed her eyes and made a sad look on her face.

Andrew: sis…

Kizakura: Wiseman will attack your vanguard.

Oracle Guardian, Wiseman 10000 power versus Naval Gazer Dragon 10000 power

Blaster: no guard

[ Damage Check ]

Kizakura: I tried my best…turn ended.

Kizakura

Hand: 4

Damage: 4

Flipped damage 0

Unflipped damage: 4

Blaster: here I go. Stand and draw. I must thank you for one thing.

Kizakura: uh?

Blaster: the other card. Was this.

Blaster showed his other card Vital Anchor, David

Kizakura: so the card you drew of Dark Cat skill.

Blaster: was the 5000 guard I just used.

Kizakura: hmm…it's not my style to be sharing a fighting chance to my opponent. But a win is a win. Go for it.

Blaster: alright.

Andrew: don't give up sis!

Suddenly Andrew shouted to his little sister. Kizakura looked at Andrew and suddenly smiled again with watering eyes.

Kizakura: I won't big brother!

Blaster: I call another Vital Anchor, David. Next Naval Gazer Dragon, final limit break!

Blaster flipped over his remaining last 2 face up cards from damage zone.

Blaster: Theo boosted, David attack.

Vital Anchor, David 18000 power versus Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 10000 power

Kizakura: I guard with Victory Maker [ guard 5000 ] & Weather Girl, Milk. [ guard 5000 ]

Blaster: not giving up uh. Commando boosted, David attack!

Vital Anchor, David 16000 power versus Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya 10000 power

Kizakura: Oracle Guardian, Nike [ Guard 10000 ] guard.

Kizakura mind: I can still guard his rears stand.

Kizakura: it's sad really.

Blaster: hmm?

Kizakura: when I got the draw trigger, I drew out my second trigger.

Blaster: draw trigger sometimes does it.

Kizakura: but I can still win, so better get a trigger.

Blaster: hmm?

Kizakura smiled with joy as Blaster beginning to blush to see her happy and energetic into the fight.

Maka: so it has begun

Andrew: uh?

Maka: the love story

Maka makes a strange smirk and Andrew suddenly noticed it when he saw Blaster blushing towards Kizakura.

Andrew wanted to scream but Maka put his hands on Andrew mouth. Maka chuckled while Andrew kept wiggling to get his mouth free in a chibi mode they were playing.

Blaster: Dorothea boosted, Naval Gazer Dragon. Final attack!

Kizakura: no guard!

Blaster: drive check!

[ Drive check ] Battleship Intelligence [ Critical Trigger ]

Blaster: critical trigger, power to my rear David. Critical to my vanguard!

Blaster: second check

[ Drive Check ] Battle Siren, Cynthia [ No Trigger ]

Kizakura : first check

[ Damage Check ] Security Guardian [ No Trigger ]

Kizakura: second

[ Damage Check ] Weather Girl, Milk [ No Trigger ]

Kizakura: no trigger…I lost.

Kizakura proudly placed her final damage on the damage zone.

Kizakura: you battled well Blaster. I hope we get to fight again.

She offered her hand and Blaster stepped back a little from the offer but slowly accepted the handshake.

Blaster: me too

Andrew: BLASTER!

Blaster turned around and saw Andrew charging in and tackled him. Blaster had big eyes for not knowing why Andrew did that and was being held in a wrestling hold.

Andrew: you can't date my sister!

Blaster: EH!? W-wait I didn't think of that!

Maka: guys come on

TSS: let them be Maka

Maka: uh?

TSS mind: you have come a long way Blaster. I can see already your going to be a good leader one day.

Blaster: I surrender!

Kizakura giggled and left the shop, Andrew noticed it and let go off Blaster and chased after his sister.

Andrew: sis!

Kizakura stopped walking but didn't turn around.

Andrew: you let Blaster win

Kizakura: oh, did I?

Andrew: you could have attacked his rear guard to prevent his limit break. Why didn't you?

Kizakura slowly turned around and popped out a flower out of her hand, tilted her hat low.

Kizakura: because I want to see my brother win at the regional's.

Andrew:…sis…but

Kizakura: our parents will do fine, but if you don't win the nationals, you will quite vanguard. Understand?

Andrew:…alright…I will do my best sis.

Andrew reach for the flowers but suddenly a garden hose comes out and sprays Andrew wet.

Andrew: h-hey!

Kizakura: I'm still your little sister haha!

Kizakura ran off with her tongue sticking out while laughing of Andrew being wet.

Andrew: why you!

Andrew smiled from the funny act of his sister and chased after her.

Maka: you okay Blaster?

Maka helped Blaster back up as well TSS did the same.

Blaster: yea I'm fine.

Blaster looked out at the shop and saw Andrew playing with his sister smiling again.

Blaster: just fine.

Blaster smiled once again for feeling more sure and stronger about himself with his deck at hand.

Meanwhile.

In a place were it's covered with mist. A body was floating on the water, the body was facing upwards and kept drifting away until it bumped it's head into something.

Roy: hnn…

The body moved a little and it was a young boy with short dark blond hair looking up with his blue eyes. He saw a white swan looking at him downwards, having a roped wrapped around it's beak to pull a floating boat with a person standing on it.

The person looked at the boy and picked him up by his neck collar. He slowly pulled him out of the water and stared at his eyes. The person was 2 times bigger then the boy and has spiky hair with a royal armour.

?: who are you?

Roy:…I'm….I'm….

Slowly the boy eyes grown shut from exhaustion. The person narrowed his eyelids a little but placed the boy on his shoulder to travel further into his journey

To be continued.
