A car brought Geo and Sonia back to Heartland Tower. They stepped outside of the elevator seeing Ace and Hart sitting in front of a pile of candy. "Here, try this one." Hart smiled handing Ace a piece of candy.
"Pretty good" He turned around to see Geo and Sonia. "Hey guys, candy?"
"Let me put my stuff down first." Geo walked back to his room. Sonia did the same following him. Geo walked into his room setting his bag down by the bed. He removed the tie and unbuttoned the top buttons on his shirt. He walked back outside to see Sonia already sitting with Ace and Hart trying different candies.
"Geo, try this one." Ace handed him a blue piece of candy.
Geo popped it into his mouth taking a few seconds to chew it. "Minty."
"The caramels are my favorite." Hart smiled popping one into his mouth.
"I like the pink ones." Sonia said popping one into her mouth.
"You want one, Mega?" Geo asked offering him a blue candy.
"I'm good."
Geo unsuspectingly picked up a red candy and ate it. "Hot! Hot hot!" He kept repeating himself spitting the candy into a nearby trashcan.
"That one looks pretty good." Omega-Xis chuckled.
"You okay, Geo?" Ace asked.
"I'm fine." He coughed a little bit.
"You guys have company." Kite said walking into the room with Tori, Yuma, Shark, Rio, Bronk, Caswell, and Cathy. "Let's go talk upstairs." Kite directed them to a spiral staircase which he walked up first leading to a lounge and observation deck that overlooked the city. Kite walked over to the couch and took a seat waiting for the others. Clover climbed into his lap and started purring as she made herself comfortable.
"Cute kitten." Cathy commented taking a seat next to Kite. She petted the cat who nuzzled her affectionately.
"Geo, Sonia, I guess I can let you explain. I assume you all know each other to some degree."
"We're um… from a different dimension." Sonia said starting the conversation. Omega-Xis and Lyra materialized from their Hunters.
"We're EM beings from a different planet and we're friends and partners with these two." Omega-Xis said throwing the group off quite a bit.
"Their dueling is very advanced and very different from ours." Kite added in.
"The only reason we can duel is because our Hunters got an update when we got here." Geo said holding the device in his hand.
"Wait." Shark stopped the conversation. "These guys are from a different dimension, and you trust them?" Shark raised an eyebrow.
"They've given me no reason to not trust them. I've been in contact with their intelligence agency, and they have been very cooperative with us. They told me about a criminal who snuck into our dimension. All they want is to get home."
"Or they want to invade here." Shark said glaring at Geo and Sonia suspiciously.
"We're not trying to invade." Geo said looking at Kite nervously while Shark glared at him intensely.
At that moment, Ace walked up the stairs. "And who is he?" Shark looked to Ace.
"I'm Ace. I'm another guy from the dimension you're suspicious of."
"Let me guess, you have an alien in your Hunter too?" Shark asked.
"Actually, I am manmade." Acid materialized from Ace's Hunter startling Shark a little.
"I have a question." Lyra materialized from Sonia's Hunter. "Who is he?" She hovered near Yuma.
"That's Yuma." Kite said.
"No, the being floating next to Yuma?"
"I am surprised you can see me. I am Astral. A member of Astral World and Yuma's friend."
"Anymore questions?" Kite asked looking at the group.
"Can we duel now?" Yuma asked looking at Geo.
"No." Kite responded.
"Why!?" Yuma looked at him angrily.
"Ace has informed me that Geo has special powers. Yuma, you have special powers. The issue is, you won't use yours unless you know that Geo has special powers. That is why I would like Shark to duel him. Shark, I know you won't hold back in any duel. Geo, I'm hoping that you will use your full power in this duel." Geo nodded his head looking at Shark who stood up powering on his duel disk.
Geo stood up and walked to the opposite end of the room putting on his visualizer and activating his duel application. The others put on their duel gazers ready to watch the duel.
"I'm going out for some fresh air." Yuma walked off looking a little dejected.
"Don't you want to watch the duel?" Tori asked.
"No, I'm fine. It won't be a fair duel if I know Geo's dueling style and he doesn't know mine." Yuma stepped into the elevator leaving with Astral.
"Okay, get ready to duel!" Shark shouted drawing his five cards while a red aura surrounded him. Five cards appeared on Geo's screen as the duel began with 4000 life points each. "I play Card of Ascension and send one monster from my hand to the graveyard in order to add a Rank-Up-Magic card from my deck to my hand. I activate the effect of Big Jaws. When I use a spell card, I can special summon it from my hand (LVL3 1800 atk/ 300 def). I tribute it to summon Cutter Shark (LVL5 2000 atk/ 2000 def). Next, I play Surface to summon Dream Shark from my graveyard, the monster I discarded earlier (LVL5 0 atk/ 2600 def). I overlay Dream Shark and Cutter Shark to build the overlay network. I Xyz Summon Number 73: Abyss Splash! (RANK5 2400 atk/ 1400 def). The powerful monster rose to the field showing some sort of bond with Shark.
"He definitely has some power to him." Ace said looking at Kite.
"He's not done yet." Kite responded.
"I play Rank-Up-Magic Quick Chaos. I rebuild the overlay network and overlay Abyss in order to chaos Xyz summon Chaos Number 73: Abyss Supra Splash! (RANK6 3000 atk/ 2000 def). I end my turn."
"Let's see if Geo really has power." Kite said observing Geo add a card to his screen.
Geo looked at the field nervously. "He already has out his strongest monster. What do we do?"
"Just play it cool, Geo. We've been through worse together."
"You're right, Mega. Let's just do our best." Geo nodded to his partner looking at his available cards. "I have no monsters on the field, so I can special summon Mettena (LVL2 300 atk/ 600 def). I summon Omega-Xis (LVL4 1700 atk/ 1000 def)." Geo tapped another card on his screen. "I activate the magic card, Strong Virus. I can combine two or more viruses to create an even stronger one. I'm combining my Mettena with the one in my hand to make a new one." The new Mettena appeared on the field now red as opposed to yellow (LVL4 600 atk/ 1200 def). "I'm using Omega-Xis and Mettena to build the overlay network. EM Wave Change Megaman!" Geo shouted as he became Megaman (Rank 4 1800 atk/ 1600 def). He stepped forward on to the field ready for a fight. "I give up one overlay unit to activate Gemini noise." Geo absorbed the overlay unit. His noise gauge shot up to 50% as his armor turned yellow and his attack became 2200. "I activate Barrier. It protects me from damage. When I attack with Gemini noise, my electric attacks double against water monsters. I activate my Flash Strike battle card and gain 100 attack." Geo took aim as his attack grew to 4600.
"Not so fast! I give up one overlay unit, so Abyss gains attack equal to yours. Geo put his arms over his head as his Barrier shattered.
"Nice shot kid, but it just wasn't enough. We'll get him next turn." Omega-Xis said trying to comfort Geo as he ended his turn.
"Geo's pretty strong." Cathy said looking at the field. "That was some attack."
"He'll need more than that to beat Shark." Kite said looking at Shark.
"Geo, observe true power before I blast you back to your dimension. CHAOS DRAW!" Shark shouted as a red aura surrounded him and his cards as he drew. "The perfect card. I play Card of Sanctity. We both draw until we have six cards in our hands." Geo watched his screen reload. "Trust me, it's not as nice as it looks. I summon Cyber Shark (LVL5 2100 atk/ 2000 def) As long as I have a water monster, I can special summon it. Next, I summon Saber Shark (LVL4 1600 atk/ 1200 def). I'm using its ability to make itself level five. I overlay Cyber Shark and Saber Shark to Xyz summon, Shark Fortress! (RANK 5 2400 atk/ 1800 def). "I'm using an overlay unit to increase Abyss' attack by yours. Abyss, attack!"
"I can use an overlay unit to use my mega shield." Geo absorbed the overlay unit and blocked the attack pushing Abyss back.
"I can use an overlay unit from Shark Fortress so Abyss can attack again. And I can use my other overlay unit to increase its attack once more." Geo was thrown against the wall feeling the sting of 3000 attack points. He stood, barely as his life points dropped to 1000. "I'm ending this next turn." Shark said ending his turn.
Geo drew his card. "Mega, what's this?" Geo was pointing to a gray card with a picture of him and Ace hanging out together, it was their Brotherband picture.
"It's a Brother card. I saw it and slipped it in your deck last minute. I thought it might help you out."
"Thanks Mega." Geo tapped the card watching a roulette function begin until it became a red card with a picture of Acid Ace on it. "It's a giga card." Geo said eyeing the card. "I'll wait to use it." Geo was looking through his hand. He saw the three sword cards in his hand. Curious, he dragged them all together watching a Giant Axe card take their place. Geo played one card face down. "Okay, Mega, let's attack." Geo smiled at his partner. He placed a card facedown before moving on to attack. "Giant Axe." His attack increased by 3200 bringing it to 5400. He looked at Shark Fortress and charged brandishing the powerful weapon swinging with one clean sweep reducing the monster to nothing and dealing Shark 3000 points of damage reducing his life points to 1000. Geo's noise gauge shot up to 350%. He ended his turn feeling happy that the game was even.
"Is this Geo's special power?" Kite asked Ace.
"Not even close." Ace smirked a little.
"Time to end this!" Shark drew his card with all of his might shooting off waves of red aura. "I activate the magic card, Xyz Unit and give it to Abyss. I'm using it as an overlay unit and increasing its attack, so that I can finish you! Abyss, end this duel!"
"I activate Undershirt!" Geo shouted revealing his trap before he was thrown against the wall again. He stood up his life points now at 10. "This trap lets me survive the battle phase with only 10 life points left."
"I end my turn." Shark growled setting a card facedown.
Geo's noise gauge dropped to 340% as he drew his card. An option appeared on his screen. "I'm accessing the meteor server!" Geo shouted tapping his screen. All of his screens turned red glowing.
"Was something supposed to happen?" Kite asked looking around.
"Something should have." Kite said looking around the room.
Then the ground shook. "Hey, what's going on!?" Kite asked grabbing Hart, shielding him with his body.
"So this is it." Shark said looking around the room.
Geo looked up at the ceiling. A blast of noise struck him from above transforming him into his Red Joker form. His attack was 3000 and so was his defense. The cards on his screen had changed. "Apparently he can't activate any cards to stop us." Omega-Xis said into Geo's ear. Geo started selecting battle cards on his screen.
"Red Gaia Eraser!" The discs on Geo's back flew off and blasted the field tearing through it. Then he fired one more blast from his hand hitting Shark's monster and himself sending him flying against the now broken wall. The duel ended. Shark fell to the floor.
"Now you know Geo's power." Ace said before running over to help Shark up.
"Orbital, get a medic!" Kite shouted.
"Master Kite, there was an earthquake reported in the city and now there's a red star in the sky!" Orbital told his master.
"Meteor G" Geo said a bit shocked that the fragment of it had moved from his dimension to this one.
"Yuma's not responding on his phone!" Tori shouted. She ran to the elevator wanting to look for him.
"Wait up." Ace said running after her. Geo and Sonia did the same.
