What's up everyone? I've got a new chapter for you all to enjoy. It's got a thrilling duel featuring Blair herself, with a new deck she's gonna try out. This chapter would also give her a special friend, and I'm confident all the Shin Megami fans reading this would know who I'm talking about.

Oh and if anyone has any info on where I can find some Pokémon Reborn fanart where the characters are relaxing on a beach, that'll be sweet.

Chapter 3: Inzektor Invasion!

Pokémon Fangame Headquarters

Everyone had returned to the meeting room after the quick rest break, the atmosphere still as tense as it was before. It was evident that everyone was still worked up over Hardy's grisly demise.

"Well we're in a bit of a jam; just how are we gonna combat the Divine Powers?" Garret inquired.

"Combat them? While they have that giant snake with them?!" Valerie retorted. "We're not combating anything while that thing is still alive and kicking!"

"Oh my, that creature was rather lively. Just like that guy I brought home a week ago." Cain smiled to himself, with everyone turning to face him. "What?"

"Putting aside what Cain does in his spare time, does anyone here have any ideas?" Ame called out, with Blair raising her hand to answer.

"Well I know we can't face them head on in battle, since they'll crush us instantly. But what happens if we challenge them to a duel? Deities are honor-bound to accept a challenge from anyone who requests one." She suggested.

"By duelling, I assume you're talking about those cards you lug around everywhere?" Titania asked.

"Yep! And I'll have you know I'm quite talented." Blair commented, proudly puffing her chest.

"There's one little problem with your plan; we don't have any of those cards." Titania replied, pointing to her wrist.

"We could use our Pokémon to battle them instead of duelling." Nora suggested.

"A fair point, especially since the traitors have their own Pokémon." Shiv added, cracking his knuckles. "Oh what I wouldn't give to crush that bastard Connor in a battle."

"Get in line; it's thanks to him that Hardy's dead." Amelia reminded him.

"Well we have out attack plan sorted out, now we just need to figure out where they're gonna strike. And I think I have a few ideas." Micaiah commented, unfurling a map of Tokyo onto the table. "First of all, an assault on Tsukiji Konganji is out of the question. Even without Shesha's presence, the city's guarded by their strongest agents. Ginza and the Tokyo Bay area would also be out-of-bounds by my train of thought. And given their interruption at the rally, it's a safe bet that they're mobilising on the Akihabara district as soon as possible."

"So where do you suggest we make our first move?" Ame inquired.

"The Shinjuku region; given that it's home to the busiest train station in the world, it would provide an ample recruiting ground for the Divine Powers, which is why we can't let them control the area." Micaiah suggested.

"A reasonable plan." Astolfo admitted. "Any volunteers?"

"Oh! Can I go? I've finished fine-tuning my deck." Blair volunteered. "I can handle anything they throw at me!"

"Well the kids' got spunk, that I won't deny." Garret admitted. "Alright then, you can go. But be careful, the last thing I want to happen is see you get eaten by that monstrosity."

"As for us, it's best we update our other friends on the situation. Therefore we'll be out for a day or too." Ame informed Astolfo's group. "Best of luck to you all."

"Same." Astolfo replied, with the two groups going their own way. The group of six hopped back into Chevalier's SUV and engaged in some small talk with each other as the car began the journey to the Shinjuku train station.

"So any thoughts on what we discussed today?" Micaiah inquired.

"I've got no complaints on my end, though I'll have to start considering what deck I'll be using." Sothe replied. "Speaking of which, what deck will you be using Blair?"

"Considering how the latest booster packs gave them some support, I figured I might give my Vampire deck a twirl." Blair answered.

"Huh, that's interesting." Roland replied. "By the way, did anyone notice all the cute girls there?! My favorite would have to be Melia."

"I figured you'd notice them, given how you were salivating like a lobotomised chimp." Chevalier replied dryly. Around twenty minutes later, the GPS began beeping, indicating they had arrived at their destination. "Well we're here everyone."

"In that case, I better get going." Blair called out, unbuckling her seat and hopping out of the car. "I'd say wish me luck, but I think we all know how it's gonna go down."

"True, but I'll still wish you luck just in case." Chevalier commented, hopping out of the car to give her a proper farewell. "Please be careful out there, I can't imagine what would happen if you don't make it."

"Don't get too worked up over it, I'm gonna be just fine." Blair replied, before hugging the blonde tightly. "Thanks for the concern though."

"I-In that case, I guess I shouldn't hold you up." Chevalier replied, as the duo broke off the hug. "Teach them what it's like to mess with the wrong community!"

"I'll be sure to emerge victorious!" Blair cried out as she began running towards the train station.

Shinjuku Train Station

Blair was wandering aimlessly around the area, hoping to find an agent of the Divine Powers or one of the traitors. The other civilians were too wrapped up in their newspapers and phones to pay much attention to the young lady. However there were a pair of men talking about something unusual.

"It was the oddest thing; this sudden blast of cold air blew in my face." The first man began. "It was like I was on top of Mt. Fuji!"

"Don't be daft, it's not that cold today." The second man knocked it back.

"I swear I'm telling the truth; why else would I lie about it?" The first man stood by his statement, when the duo soon noticed Blair walking up to them

"Excuse me, but where was this blast of cold air?" She inquired.

"If I remember correctly, it was near the disused ticket booth to the south of here." The first man answered.

"Gotcha, thank you mister!" Blair quickly replied, running towards the location as the men looked at her in confusion.

"Wonder what's up with her." The second man inquired.

Blair had arrived at the disused ticket booth and it was as she expected it to be. The entire area was dirty and had trash strewn about, with the booth window shattered into thousands of tiny pieces. A cardboard box beside the booth began shaking wildly, as a small figure burst out of the box and landed before Blair's feet. The figure was an adorable little snowman, with a round body, two large black eyes and a mischievous grin that showed off his two fangs. He wore a purple cap with a yellow smiley-face on it, a purple jester's neck-frill and a pair of purple boots. He was about as tall as Blair's legs and was surprised to see her

"Hee-ho-ho! How'd you find me, hee-ho?" The snowman inquired, looking up at her.

"Awww, you're so adorable." Blair commented, crouching down to his level. "What's your name?"

"The name's Jack Frost, hee-ho. I love all things could and chilly." He introduced himself.

"The name's Blair, and it's a pleasure to meet you." She greeted back. "Wat are you doing out here on your own?"

"Hee-ho you know, searching for that treasure those folks wanted." Jack Frost answered. "It might be powerful enough to make me taller, hee-ho."

"Treasure? What kind of treasure are we talking about?" Blair inquired. "And who was it that sent you here in the first place?"

"Well I don't hee-know what I'm looking for, but I do know that I was sent here by them Divine Powers folk ho." Jack Frost answered, confirming Blair's suspicions.

"Now this is a surprise; I didn't expect to find such a cute prize here." A woman's voice echoed throughout the area, attracting Blair's attention. The newcomer was a taller than average teenage woman with long cherry-red hair, amber-colored eyes, and a curvaceous figure. Her outfit consisted of an emerald green jacket on top of a white t-shirt and a pair of jeans. She was beautiful but deadly, and had a small platoon of high-school students following her. "Well if it isn't Bland Flannigan; what are you doing here?" she taunted.

"I could ask you the same question Missy!" Blair retorted, with Jack Frost stepping a few feet back so he can watch the fight.

"Easy, I was sent here to retrieve a valuable artefact Lord Krishna desires, but I see that he already has an agent out here." Missy answered, eying up Jack Frost. "My, my. What a cute little demon. I'll gladly keep him as my personal servant."

"Hee-ho-ho…?" Jack Frost called out, a little nervous by the newcomer.

"That's right little buddy, you're gonna spend the rest of your life serving Zane and I." Missy smirked, as the small demon ran behind Blair's legs and started quaking in fear.

"You have no right to terrify an innocent demon!" Blair called Missy out. "Besides, Zane's still single from what Jaden told me."

"Oh he may be now, but once I obtain the artefact and Lord Krishna destroys those awful fangames, Zane would fall head over heels for me." Missy fantasied, imagining Zane sweeping her up off her feet and taking her away to his Cyber Mansion.

"I highly doubt he would fall for someone as twisted as you." Blair snarked.

"And why wouldn't he? I'm smarter than you, I'm stronger than you, I'm sexier than you. I'm the perfect package." Missy bragged, with the platoon behind her showering her with praise. "At the very least Zane's a lot better than that wimpy brother of his."

"I'm sure he'd really appreciate hearing that from someone who's interested in him." Blair replied, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Oh don't get worked up over matters that don't involve you." Missy replied, as a smirk grew on her face. "Then again I'd be jealous to if I was stuck with a complete wuss like that Chevalier punk."

"Hey you take that back this instant!" Blair demanded.

"What's the matter, did I hurt your feelings?" Missy crooned, leaning in towards Blair. "If I were you I'd ditch that crossdressing freak."

"That's it!" Blair snapped, activating her duel disk. "I'm gonna deck you hard for that last remark. And I'll let you know I've improved greatly since I left Duel Academy."

"Heheheh, you're not the only one who's improved." Missy remarked, activating her own duel disk.

"Let's duel!" They both declared while drawing their cards.

Blair: 4000

Missy: 4000

"I'll take the first move." Missy stated. "I play the spell Allure of Darkness to start things off." She drew her cards and banished a monster from her hand. "I set two cards face down and summon Inzektor Centipede in Attack Mode, and end my turn."

Blair eyed up her opponents field cautiously. Inzektors were a powerful archetype that gave many trouble due to their quick swarming and the numerous gains they made by destroying their own resources. It got to the point that Inzektor Hornet and Dragonfly got put on the limited list to nerf the deck. Regardless, Blair wouldn't back down in the face of such a powerful adversary.

"Alright then, it's my turn!" Blair called out, drawing her first card. "I play the spell Foolish Burial to send Vampire Sorcerer to the graveyard. And since he's in my graveyard I can activate his effect; by banishing him I get to summon a Vampire monster without tributing a monster. And I think I'll chose Vampire Red Baron in Attack Mode!" she grinned, as the powerful monster stormed onto the field.

"Eurgh! What a hideous monster!" Missy shrieked.

"Oh I'm sorry it's not to your liking." Blair teased. "Now Red Baron, flatten that lowly bug on her field!" the vampiric baron's horse let out a loud whinny as it charged towards the hostile warrior.

"Sucked in Blair, I activate Negate Attack!" Missy retorted, as the horse was halted in its tracks and trotted back to Blair's field.

"Tch, I set two cards face down and end my turn." Blair said.

"Is that all? My turn then." Missy started her turn. "I'll summon Inzektor Dragonfly in Attack Mode, and activate it's effect to equip Inzektor Giga-Mantis to it, bolstering its attack to 2400!" The warrior let out an almighty battle cry as he gained great power from his comrade.

ATK (1000-2400)

"Ahahahahahaha! Now Dragonfly, eliminate that decrepit old man!" Missy ordered, as the souped-up warrior charged at Red Baron who proceeded to defend himself. Eventually the two monsters clashed with each other, creating a large explosion that destroyed the both of them. "Dragonfly's effect activates. When a card that's equipped to him is sent to the graveyard, I get to special summon another Inzektor from my deck, and I'll chose Inzektor Hopper in Attack Mode!"

Another mighty warrior materialised from her deck, this one wearing a light green set of armor. Blair scowled at her opponents; Missy was taking full advantage of the Inzektors powerful swarming capabilities.

"Now Centipede, attack her life points directly!" Missy called out, with the stocky warrior barrelling towards his opponent.

"Perfect. Now I'll activate Vampire Fraulein's effect to special summon her from my hand in Defense Position!" Blair countered, as a cute girl in a black dress appeared on her field and blocked the incoming attack with her parasol.

"Urk, seriously?!" Missy whined, as she lost some lifepoints.

Missy: 3600

"Tch, I end my turn." She hissed.

"Excellent! It's my turn." Blair drew her card. "Now I'll activate my facedown card, Vampire Takeover! I'm sure you know what this baby does."

"I do…" Missy replied through gritted teeth, as Blair's field transformed into a medieval village with an ominous castle overlooking the area from atop the hill. Additionally Vampire Red Baron arose from the dead and stared down Missy's monsters.

"I'll have Red Baron attack your Hopper!" Blair called out as the large monster charged at its foe once again, this time obliterating the warrior, causing Missy to growl as she lost lifepoints.

Missy: 2900

"I'll end my turn here." Blair replied smugly, infuriating her opponent.

"I'll show you, my turn!" Missy snapped, drawing her card before gazing at it, her anger being replaced with a sinister grin. "I'll start things off by activating Centipede's effect to equip Giga-Mantis to it. Arise once more my monster!" Inzektor Centipede let out a battle cry as his body was filled with an awesome power.

ATK (1600-2400)

"And I'll also activate my facedown card, Variable Form to Special Summon Giga-Mantis in Attack Mode." She continued, with Centipede losing the power it had recently gained.

ATK (2400-1600)

"Now I'll summon Inzektor Hornet in Attack Mode, and equip Centipede to him in order to bolster his level." Missy added, before she began laughing like crazy. "Now I'll overlay Inzektor Giga-Mantis and Hornet to XYZ summon a monster of extreme power; Inzektor Exa-Beetle!"

The two monsters turned into balls of light and dove into the miniature galaxy, causing a bright flash to illuminate the area. Everyone present except the duelists shielded their eyes from the bright flash, only for is to dissipate a few seconds later. In the monsters place was a gigantic warrior wielding a set of glorious golden armor, and was equipped with a massive spear.

"Exa-Beetle's effect activates. When he's special summoned, I can equip him with a monster from my graveyard, and he gains Attack and Defense equal to that monsters Attack and Defense." Missy pointed out, as the hulking warrior snatched Hopper from the graveyard and rested him on his shoulders, with Hopper providing a potent power boost to his leader.

ATK (1000-2700)

DEF (1000-2400)

"Now by detaching an XYZ material from Exa-Beetle, I get to pop a face-up card on both sides of the field. So say goodbye to your Red Baron again!" Missy taunted, as Red Baron and Variable Form were destroyed by Exa-Beetle's mighty lance. "Oh and I'll use Enemy Controller to change Fraulein's position, just to make things that little bit worse for you."

"N-No!" Blair cried out, as the situation took a turn for the worse.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Exa-Beetle, destroy that slut with Inzektor Pierce!" Missy cackled, as the massive warrior thrusted its lance into the poor girl, destroying her instantly. Blair screamed in pain as her lifepoints took a huge hit.

Blair: 1900

"Just give up already; I'm sure Krishna would show you mercy if you yield." Missy offered.

"I…I refuse to give up!" Blair declared, her body covered in dirt and scratches. "You may save sold your soul to the Divine Powers, but that is what will cost you the game."

"Ha! Save your breath. I'll let you start your last turn." Missy scoffed.

"With pleasure." Blair replied while drawing her card and looking at it. On its own it won't be able to do much, but with a bit of thinking, it could lead to her victory.

"I place a monster in facedown Defense Position and end my turn." Blair declared.

"What a waste of a turn…" Missy muttered, drawing her card. "Exa-Beetle, crush that facedown monster!" The large warrior charged at the facedown monster and obliterating it, causing Blair to smirk at her opponent.

"Why thank you for doing that. By destroying my Pyramid Turtle, I get to special summon a Zombie-type monster with 2000 DEF or less, and I'll chose my Vampire Vamp!" Blair replied, as the seductive monster appeared form the deck and winked lovingly at Exa-Beetle.

"So what, I can just activate Exa-Beetle's effect to—"Missy began.

"No so fast! I activate Vampire Domination to negate your Exa-Beetle's effect and destroy it. Furthermore, since it was a monster card I destroyed, I gain lifepoints equal to its original attack." Blair grinned.

"N-No!" Missy growled as her ace monster was swarmed by vampire bats and got destroyed, while Blair was struck by a blood red beam of healing energy.

Blair: 2900

"I end my turn…" Missy huffed.

"Alright then, I draw!" Blair called out. "Now I'll summon Vampire Lady in Attack Mode."

"W-W-Wait a minute!" Missy began to panic.

"I see you know how things are gonna go down. I won't keep you waiting then; Vampire Lady, Vampire Vamp, drain the rest of her lifepoints!" Blair declared, as the two vampires lunged at Missy and attacked her, causing her to scream as her lifepoints were gone in the blink of an eye.

Missy: 0

Winner: Blair

"I-I can't believe I lost…" Missy complained, slumping down to the ground.

"Hee-ho-ho! That's what you get for messin' with the wrong lady, hee-ho!" Jack Frost taunted, pointing at her.

"You were supposed to be mine!" Missy cried out, when her duel disk started glowing harshly. "No…NOOOOOOO! Please don't do this to me!"

"W-what's happening?" Blair inquired, as a holographic arm emerged from the duel disk and plunged its hand into Missy's chest and snatched her soul. The hand soon dove back into the disk as Missy's body slumped onto the ground, before dissipating into thousands of bright lights. The platoon of Divine Powers Supporters that followed her all ran off in fear.

"Hee-ho-ho…?" Jack Frost eyed the scene curiously, with Blair picking him up.

"Come with me, cute-stuff. I've got the perfect room for you." Blair proposed.

"Yes sir-ee!" Jack Frost agreed to the idea, as their duo left the train-station and proceeded to head back to the designated meeting location.

Tsukiji Kongangi: Leader's Quarters

"Now that was…disappointing to say the least." Krishna sighed upon hearing the news about Missy's defeat. "At the very least her soul would help out plans by having Shesha feast on it."

"Using these cards to extract enough souls for Shesha to become the Cosmic Egg is a clever trick. It's just that we need more competent duellists." Odin commented.

"As we speak, out subordinates are teaching the foot soldiers how to play this game." Maitreya added. "Perhaps we should try it ourselves."

"If that's the best plan you lot have, then I have bad news for you." A gruff, Scottish voice echoed throughout the room. Within an instant a new figure materialised into the room, this one was around as tall as Odin and was clad in a set of dark-green and black armor and having reddish-orange hair and a matching color beard.

"Hmph, so you finally decided to show up Dagda." Odin greeted the newcomer. "State your business."

"I was wondering if you were still pursuing that salvation you seek, and I see that you've all degraded to nothing but a trio of imbeciles." Dagda dryly retorted.

"The salvation we seek is a most noble goal indeed; it's a lot more logical than whatever dollar-store plan you have!" Maitreya hastily retorted.

"It's not that I've given up on it, far from it. It's just that I need the right pawn for my Godslayer." Dadga replied, crossing his arms. "At the very least it's less humiliating than waging war over video games."

"I'll have you know that those games are a major obstacle in our path! It's important that we do whatever we can to dispose of them for good." Krishna retorted.

"Whatever; I'll study these games to see if they really are an obstacle to your salvation, though I highly doubt that'll be the case." Dagda stated, before disappearing back to where he came from.

"Heheheh, now that you've joined the game Dagda, things are going to get interesting soon…" Krishna chuckled ominously to himself.

What an amazing chapter we have here. Not only did Blair befriend the lovable Jack Frost, but Dagda has entered the fray. Whether he'll assist the Divine Powers or not is a complete mystery.

By the way, I was lucky enough to pull Summer!Tana on the latest Banner in Fire Emblem: Heroes and she looks really pretty. Her kit's looking mighty powerful, so she could be a really strong hero in Arena battles. That's all for now everyone, catch you later.
