It's time for the next chapter, continuing the duel between Takato and Kazu!!!
-------------------------------
*TAKATO: 2100*
*KAZU: 2700*
Takato's Field:
MetalGreymon. 8 stars. ATK: 2900 = 3200 DEF:2400 = 2700
Machine Conversion Factory. Magic card. Equip. Increase the ATK & DEF of an Machine-type monster or an Android-type Digimon by 300 points.
Kazu's Field:
Nothing.
Amazed by Takato's performance, the Digidestined and Pokemon trainers were watching a Duel Monster/Digimon battle between two Digimon Tamers. One was Takato, Digimon partner is his Guilmon, and has a powerful Digimon on his side of the field. On the other side was Kazu, partner of the dense Guardromon, whom found himself in a tight spot.
Netherless, even though there is a powerful monster on the field, you can still win with Magic, Trap or Effect Monster cards. And that is what Kazu is hoping for in his next turn.
"All right! Draw!" Kazu called out, drawing a card. When he looked at it, he smiled. "Sweet! I place one card face down!" Kazu placed the card he drew into his Duel Disk before taking another card out of his hand. "And now, I will activate a Magic card called Pot of Greed!"
Max called out. "What does that do?"
"It allows Kazu to draw two more cards from his deck!" Henry replied.
"That's right!" Kazu said, drawing two cards from his deck. When he looked at his hand, he gave out a small chuckle. "Oh, this is too sweet! I'm gonna make you lose some more life points, Takato!"
"Oh, really? How?!" Takato asked.
"All right! Here is what I'm gonna do! Activate the face down card, a Duelest's favourite! Reborn Monster!" Kazu called out as his face down card flipped up. "With this, I can bring a monster back from the graveyard from either your's or mine! And I will bring back my Myotismon in DEF position!"
Takato blinked as Myotismon appeared in Kazu's side of the field, kneeling down as his position was in DEF. "What are you doing, Kazu? Myotismon's DEF points is 2300!"
"Not for long because I'm gonna give him this new Equip Magic card! Digital Demon Armour!" Kazu shouted out, placing a card onto the field behind Myotismon's. "This card will increase a Ghost-type Digimon's DEF by 700 points!"
"That will make Myotismon's DEF by 3000!!! But, its not enough! MetalGreymon has 200 more ATK points then Myotismon, meaning that Takato will blast him away in the next turn!" Rika announced.
"Yes, I know that... That is why I'm placing two cards face-down on my field." Kazu said, placing two cards down. "And finally, I shall end my turn."
As soon as Kazu said that, Takato drew a card and pointed at his MetalGreymon. "All right, MetalGreymon! Destroy Myotismon with your Giga Blaster!"
With that said, Takato's MetalGreymon roared and fired off two missles from his chest plate. But, before it could hit Myotismon, one of Kazu's face-down card flipped up.
"What in the...?" Henry gasped.
"A Quick Play Magic card?!" Terriermon asked, blinking.
Kazu nodded. "Yep! Known as The Reliable Guardian! With this, Myotismon's DEF will be increased with another 700 points!"
"NO!" Takato swore as MetalGreymon's attack not only didn't destroy Myotismon but, Takato's life points went down.
*TAKATO: 1600*
"Right? Are you done?" Kazu asked, smiling.
Takato looked at his hand before sighing. "I'm done..."
Kazu smirked. "Good! I will draw my next card!" With that done, Kazu placed another card onto his field. "All right, after I place this card on the field, I will now switch my Myotismon in ATK position. "
"What?!" Takato asked, almost yelling. His eyes widen in shock as Myotismon stood up in ATK position and a face-down card appeared behind him. "What is this...?"
"And then, end turn!" Kazu said, smiling.
Kenta was shocked as well. "Kazu?! What are you thinking!?"
"If MetalGreymon destroys your Myotismon, your life points will be dropped to 2100!" Jeri said.
Henry was a bit worried. "Why would Kazu have Myotismon in ATK position where MetalGreymon could destroy him... He must have some sort of plan going on!"
"Yeah, I figured that out when that face down card appeared behind his Digimon... I wonder what he is thinking..." Rika muttered. "I just hope Takato can figure this out."
"This is getting better and better..." Edward muttered.
Misty turns to Brock with a chirping Togepi in her arms. "Brock, who do you think is gonna win?"
"I don't know, Misty. It seems that the both of them are not backing down. It seems that each turn, they are using Magic cards to damage their opponent's life points. Remember what Guilmon said at the beggining of the match? The battle will be over if one of the Dulest's life points reach zero." Brock said.
"Yeah... And I wonder whats gonna happen next..." Ash muttered.
After Takato drew a card from his deck, he stared at Kazu, thinking. "What is Kazu doing...? Why did he put Myotismon in ATK position? Either he is gone crazy or... he has plan! Neverless, I will attack now and make him lose some life points!" With a yell, Takato pointed at Myotismon. "All right, MetalGreymon! Destroy him!"
MetalGreymon roared as he charged towards Myotismon again. When Takato's monster reached to Kazu's side of the field, the face down card Kazu placed on his last turn flipped up. It's colour was pink.
"What sort of card is that?!" Yolei asked.
Henry paled. "A Trap card!"
"A TRAP CARD?!" Takato asked, almost shouting.
"Yeah! A Trap card! Titled, Spellbinding Circle!" Kazu said, smiling. "This will catch MetalGreymon, unabling him to change from ATK to DEF and making sure he won't attack again! Meaning, MetalGreymon has been caught!"
With a gasp, Takato watched as a circle with amazing power wrapped itself around MetalGreymon, preventing him from finishing Myotismon off. No matter how much he tried, MetalGreymon can't break free from the Spellbinding Circle.
"Hey, that wasn't fair! Let MetalGreymon go!" Agumon called out.
Tai sighed and placed his knuckles into Agumon's head. "Sit down, Agumon. This is legal. Its just a game, chill!"
Agumon just pouted. "Fine!"
"Not so crazy now, huh?" Kazu asked, simply looking at Takato, Jeri and Kenta.
"No..." Jeri said, bowing her head.
Kenta sighed. "Sorry, Kazu."
"No big. I've just caught myself an Ultimate!" Kazu said, smiling.
Takato muttered under his breath as he placed a card on his field. "I will place one face down card on my side of the field and end my turn."
Kazu laughed as he drew another card from his deck. One look and he cheered. "All right, Chumly! Prepare to say goodbye to your MetalGreymon! I will play a Magical Equip card called Axe of Dispair that will increase Myotismon's 2600 ATK power to a massive 3600 points!"
"Ah, nuts!" Takato said as an axe appeared in Myotismon's hands.
"And now, slice MetalGreymon in half!" Kazu said as Myotismon flew towards MetalGreymon at a high speed.
"Not so fast! Activate MY Trap card, Negate Attack!" Takato shouted out as his face down card flipped up. "This will stop Myotismon attacking for one turn!"
"One turn ONLY! Because you can't change MetalGreymon into DEF thanks to my Spellbinding Circle!" Kazu said as Myotismon landed in front of him again, leaving MetalGreymon alive. "I will place one card face down and end my turn."
When Takato drew another card from his hand, he sighed and placed it on his disk. "I will activate another Black Pendant that will increase MetalGreymon's power from 3200 to 3700!"
"Good! Even though MetalGreymon can't attack due to Kazu's Trap card, Myotismon can't attack MetalGreymon unless he wants to get destroyed!" Henry said. "Good job!"
"Thanks! Now I just have to figure out how I can make a comeback..." Takato muttered. "End turn!"
Kazu sighed. "If I can't destroy MetalGreymon, who can I destroy? Takato isn't stupid to put a monster in ATK position that has less points than Myotismon's, unless I put a monster in ATK position! That's it!"
"Well, Kazu?" Takato asked.
"I draw a card and place Golemon in ATK position!" Kazu announced as Golemon appared on the field. *Golemon. 3 stars. ATK: 1100 DEF: 2000* "And I will end my turn!"
Kenta slapped his head. "Kazu! What are thinking?!"
"OK... Now I'm confused..." Rika muttered.
"Well... unless Takato has a Magic card to free his MetalGreymon, he will have to summon a monster with a few ATK points higher than Golemon. Then, all Kazu has to do is get Myotismon to attack and win the battle." Henry explained.
Rika nodded. "I get it now.. Even though Kazu will lose some life points, he will still win."
"Yeah... I wonder if Takato has this figured out." Henry muttered.
"Kazu thinks I will fall for it?" Takato muttered, drawing a card from his deck. "Thinking that I will attack his Golemon with a Digimon or Duel Monster with a higher ATK power to lower some of his life points. If I do that, I'm sitting duck! I will just play a magic card to free MetalGreymon and destroy Golemon!"
"Well?" Kazu asked.
Takato smirked. "Jokes on you, Kazu! I will activate this Magic card, Remove Trap! Spellbinding Circle will be gone and MetalGreymon will win this duel for me!"
When Takato placed a card on his disk, the Remove Trap card appeared and began its work on Kazu's trap card.
"Oh my! I'm doomed! I'm doomed! Oh, woe is me!" Kazu said, in a mock-worried voice before he grinned. "Too bad! MetalGreymon is gonna be trapped! Remember, Chummy? My turn before Golemon's arrival, I placed a card face down? Well, here it is! A Trap card called Magic Jammer! Discarding one card from my hand, your Remove Trap is no longer working!"
"Dang it!" Takato muttered as he placed another card on his disk. "I will play Pot of Greed to draw two more cards from my deck!" When he drew two more cards and looked at them, his eyes widen. "Oh man!"
"Whats up? Releasing your in trouble?" Kazu asked, smiling.
To everyone's surprise, Takato was smirking. "Nope, Kazu. I have two cards in my hand to ensure victory! First of all, I will activate Magic card, Snatch Steal!"
"Snatch Steal!?" Kazu gasped.
"Yep! I will control your Golemon with this Magic card for how long I will like!" Takato explained. "Plus, for each of your turn, you will get a 1000 for your Life Points! But, thats never gonna happen as I will use MetalGreymon and Golemon to summon a NEW monster!"
"A new monster?!" Kazu gasped.
Takato nodded. "That's right! I will now sacrafice MetalGreymon and Golemon to summon... ANGEWOMON!"
The moment MetalGreymon and Golemon were gone, a beauitful female angel Digimon appeared on the field, a white light glowing around her. Ash, Misty, May and Max sweatdropped as Brock has his traditional goofy look on his face.
"A..Angewomon... Hubba bubba..." Brock said in his stupid voice.
"Nice to see he hasn't changed a bit..." Misty muttered.
May sighed. "Perfect..."
"Kazu! Angewomon's ATK power is 2500 but, she is also an Effect Digimon!" Takato called out.
***Angewomon. 7 stars. Light. Ultimate. Angel Digimon. ATK: 2500 DEF: 2200. EFFECT: If any Zombie, Ghost or Demon Monsters are on the field, Angewomon will automatically destroy them. Higher ATK or DEF doesn't count***
"That means..." Kazu's face paled. "Myotismon is toast!"
Takato nodded. "That's right!"
Placing her hands together and opening them, Angewomon created a holy shockwave that crushed Myotismon away. Kazu sighed as he discared Myotismon, Axe of Dispair, Spellbinding Circle and Digital Demon Armour. "Perfect! I lost!"
"Not only that, Kazu! You still lose life points due to my second Black Pendant that was attached to my MetalGreymon!" Takato said as Kazu's life points dropped.
*TAKATO: 1600*
*KAZU: 2200*
"This is getting intense!" Izzy said.
Tentomon nodded. "Yes... What happens if Angewomon attacks Kazu?"
"Kazu will lose 2500 life points, meaning Takato has won!" Henry explained.
"That's right! Angewomon, attack now! Celestial Arrow!" Takato shouted as Angewomon fired off an arrow that struck Kazu, covering him light as the battle was soon over.
*TAKATO: 1600*
*KAZU: 0*
"All right! Takatomon won!" Guilmon cheered.
Leomon nodded. "Well played, you two."
"Neverless, this is just a practise duel! In future, the battles will be tough!" Renamon said. "But, I have faith in Rika and she will be the best as always."
"Thank you, Renamon." Rika said, smiling.
"Good job, Takato!" Kazu called out.
"Thanks! You too!" Takato replied with a nod.
Henry turned to the Pokemon Trainers and Digidestined with a smile on his face. "Well? What did you think?"
"That was amazing!" Brendan said.
"Nine!" Chimed in his Ninetales.
Ken nodded. "I hope this Battle City will be off the hook for you guys!"
"I hope so too..." Henry muttered.
----------------------------------------
Hiding in a abandon shed somewhere in Domino City... Sonic and Knuckles were making their plans with Shadow as Tails was busy working on his Tornado 2.
"All right... Let's see what just happened here." Sonic said. "Dr Eggman's machine opened up a portal with the help of the seven Chaos Emeralds. The moment Metal Shadow destroyed the machine, it created Chaos Control that brought us here."
"Maybe not only us, Sonic... Maybe there were others that got caught in the blast." Shadow said.
"Shadow is right, Sonic! Amy must be here as well! She was with me in the Tornado 2, above Angel Island before we got here!" Tails spoke up as he closed the lid on his engine.
Sonic grunted. "Amy is here... And so will Eggman and his cronies since they were the closest to that metal trash!"
"And also Angel Island! My Chaotix Crew are on this planet as well..." Knuckles muttered. "Sonic, I think its best to find everyone and figure out what we are going to do!"
Shadow nodded. "He is right! And we all know that the Chaos Emeralds are in this world since that kid Knuckles was following has one of them!"
"According to my Chaos scanners, there is only one Emerald located in this city and that boy has it! The other 6 are located in a Japan city area called Shinjuku. Its offering some sort of competition called Battle City. I guess that is where that kid is heading to!" Tails said.
"So... after we find the other six Emeralds over there... we will get the last one from that kid." Knuckles muttered. "And then, we will go out and find the others that was caught in Chaos Control."
"Sounds like a plan." Shadow muttered.
"It has to be a good plan otherwise..." Sonic sighed. "We gotta stop Eggman as well... He might have some cooky plan to take over this world!"
"What are we waiting for then?" Shadow asked. "Let's move!"
---------------------------------------
"So... apart from you guys... are there any other Tamers?" Izzy asked once the Tamers sat down on the benches where the Digidestined and the Tamers were at during the duel.
Kenta nodded as the girls from Digidestined and Trainers started to gasp and fawn over the cuteness of MarineAngemon. "Yeah, there is. Henry's little sister, Susie. Her partner is Lopmon. And Ryo, partner of Cyberdramon."
"Ryo?" Ken gasped. "I knew a Ryo once."
"Hmm... Maybe this Ryo is different. His last name is Akiyama." Takato said.
Ken leapt up in shock. "His last name was Akiyama as well!"
"That's weird..." Ash muttered.
Rika sighed. "Listen... The Battle City starts tomorrow afternoon. Come round there since Ryo is entering as well."
"OK..." Ken said, nodding.
Wormmon sighed. "I hope its the same Ryo."
"If it is the same Ryo, then why is he here in this world?" Ken asked. "It doesn't make sense..."
Rika sighed and turned to the other Tamers. "I think we better head back home. Tomorrow, we all have school in the morning but, we can leave early to join the tourament. Kenta and Jeri can leave as well since they got special permission with the help of Takato and Kazu."
"Then, that means..." Kenta muttered with a big grin.
Kazu grinned as well. "NO SCHOOL, NO WORK, NO NOTHING FOR A WHOLE MONTH!!!"
Henry sighed. "Its gonna be a long month..."
"I can see that." Cody muttered.
"Excuse me, Kazu. What time is it?" Guardromon asked.
"Good grief..." Kazu muttered, checking his watch. "Its 12:00, Guardromon."
"Time for lunch!" Veemon spoke out.
"Finally." Armadilliomon said, nodding.
Guardromon looked at HIS watch, which was amusing since it was tied up with string as his arm is VERY large. "According to mine, its 6:00 in the evening. Time to head home."
"Nope, its noon." Rika muttered, checking her watch.
"Kazu... why is Guardromon wearing a watch?" Leomon asked.
Kazu sighed as he stood up. "Do you really want to know?"
"No... Now you mentioned it, I don't." Leomon said.
"Guardromon... let me see your watch..." Kazu said, in a calm voice.
Guardromon held his arm down. "Here you are, Kazu."
"Thank you..." Kazu said, look at Guardromon's watch before grabbing a metal pole and starting to wack Guardromon's head. "YOU STUPID DOOFUS!!!"
Guardromon didn't feel any pain as his body wasn't damaged, though the metal pole was starting to bend a lot. "Why? What is the matter, Kazu?"
"THIS ISN'T A WATCH!!! ITS A COMPASS!!! ITS POINTING SOUTH!!!" Kazu yelled out in fury, rapidly banging the pole.
"I can't believe he is wacking his own Digimon..." Kari said, in shock.
Agumon shrugged. "I won't worry about Guardromon... His armour is impossible to break. I'm more worried about the metal pole he is using."
"Are they like this a lot?" Tai asks.
"Oh yeah, a lot..." Takato replied, with a sweatdrop.
Jeri sighed. "Well, at least Kazu is using a metal pole. Last time, it was a baseball bat."
"Yeah... Took Kazu a WEEK to stop shaking." Terriermon added, with a small smirk.
Edward rubbed his head, trying to figure out the weirdness around him. "Yeesh, Tamers and Digimon sure have some strange relationship here... I wonder what is the battle going to be like tomorrow..."
Before anyone could say something, the door opened and a male adult dressed in a black suit with black glasses walked into the room. "Hello there."
"Hey, Mr Yamaki." Takato greeted with a nod.
"I bet all of you are hungry since its noon now." Yamaki asks.
Before anyone could reply, Ash's stomach started to growl. "Yeah! Let's eat!"
Pikachu nodded. "Pika!"
"Same old Ash..." Misty said, with a smile.
Yamaki smirked before noticing Kazu still hitting Guardromon with the pole. "OK... What did Guardromon did this time?"
The Digidestined and Trainers fell down laughing since they figured out that Kazu getting really annoyed with Guardromon must have happened A LOT!
---------------------------------------
The train stopped as it arrived at Shinjuku. On board where Yugi, Tea, Joey, Tristan and Koinumon. With the group were Yugi's Grandpa and Joey's sister, Serenity. Koinumon was being hugged by Serenity because of his cuteness. Plus, SnowAgumon has his head popped out of the bag belonging to Tea.
"This is it! This is where the new Battle City is going to take place! Shinjuku!" Yugi said, with a smile on his face.
Yugi's Grandpa, Solomon, chuckled. "I'm glad to see your so happy, Yugi. I hope you will enjoy battling in this competition."
"I hope so too, Grandpa." Yugi replied.
"I have to agree. Yugi only competed in Duelest Kingdom to save his Grandpa and the original Battle City was to stop Marik." Tea spoke up.
Joey nodded. "But now, me and Yugi are in this for fun! And gonna mark ourselves as top duelests!"
"I bet Kaiba is gonna enter like he did in his last Battle City." Tristan said, with a smirk.
"And I hope Mai will be in it as well." SnowAgumon spoke up.
Serenity giggled and looked down at the squirming Koinumon. "Don't you have anything to say?"
"I would... *gasp* ... if I have some air.... *gasp* ... please?" Koinumon said, his face was blue and he was gasping for air. "Serenity.... *gasp* .... YOU HAVE A STRONG GRIP!!!"
"Sorry!" Serenity said, gasping as she dropped Koinumon on the floor. "Oh, dear. Koinumon, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine..." Koinumon muttered as his face was on the floor. "I'm just checking out the detail on this floor anyway. It's really neat."
Tristan shook his head as he picked Koinumon up and got off his seat. "Come on, let's get off the train."
And then, Red Eyes popped his head out. Evil look and smile on his face as he brought out a teddy bear and a blanket. "Need help there, Koinumon?"
"YOUR MEAN!!!" Koinumon said as a burst of waterfall tears came out.
A giggle from Serenity and massive sweatdrops rolled down the side of the heads belonging to Tea, Joey and Tristan.
"Oh brother..." Tea sighed.
"You have to find a In-Training to Rookie Digivolve card soon..." Joey muttered.
Tristan nodded. "I know... I know..."
Yugi and Solomon laughed as they started to get up. Yugi looked out of the window and gasped. "What in the...?"
"Yugi? Whats the matter?" Solomon asked.
"Grandpa? Remember I told you about that boy that Digivolved into Lowemon?" Yugi asked, his eyes staying on the window.
Solomon nodded. "Yes? So?"
"LOOK!" Yugi pointed.
Solomon looked out of the window to notice a boy wearing a bandana, dressed in a blue jacket with blue trousers and white sneakers. He turned back to grandson. "Are you sure?"
"I am!" Yugi said.
//Wrong, Yugi//
/Wrong?! What do you mean I'm wrong?!/
//This boy is different. He has shorter hair, different clothes... Yugi, even if that boy looked like the one who became Lowemon against that Devidramon we saw doesn't mean he is the same one. Who knows, it could be his twin//
/Maybe your right... I've gone over the top back there. Its best not to go up to him and talk. He will think I'm some sort of wierdo thinking he can change into a Digimon/
//Good. Better get off the train//
/Right.../
"Yugi? What did Yami said?" Solomon asked.
Yugi sighed. "He suggests that the boy outside isn't the one I saw and I agree... I'm getting a little crazy here..."
"Don't worry, Yugi. Come on, we better get off the train." Solomon said, leading his grandson off the transport.
Outside, the young boy Yugi saw walked off and entered a small canteen where he met up with another boy dressed in a yellow shirt and a red jacket with a brown hat that has goggles upon it. He nodded towards his friend. "Hey, Takuya."
"Koji!" Takuya said, waving. "Whats up?"
"I spotted that guy who is both Duelest Kingdom and Battle City Champion, Yugi Muto. I was able to reconised him with that photo Lady Ophanimon showed us." Koji explained, sitting down at the table.
Takuya nodded. "Yeah... Koichi told us that. When do you think we should reveal ourselves as Digidestined and Legendary Warriors? According to the Great Angels, our powers are the only way to win this mysterious battle."
"I don't know... But, I hope its sooner rather than later..." Koji muttered. "Come on... Let's find the others..."
"Right."
----------------------------------
High on a hill that over looks some parts of Shinjuku, a limo stopped and out stepped Seto Kaiba. Looking down at the city where his next Battle City will begin, he laughed as he is going to show everyone that he will be a champion once again.
With a small smile, he took out his Golddramon card and smirked. "My faith in Obelisk the Tormentor proved to me that one card can't give me victory all the time. Unless I put my faith in all my cards, I will never be the champion I once was before Yugi and his Exodia came along. I will make sure I will build the most powerful Duel Monster deck in the entire world, combind with the new Digimon-type cards, I will be unstoppable! Yugi... if you beat me for the third time... I will know you are, in without any doubt, the best. And I promise you that."
Kaiba placed his Golddramon card away before staring into the air. "Let the Battle City being, AGAIN!!!"
-------------------------------
Stay tune for the next chapter. Going slowly but, I'm hoping to get there... I hope. HIT IT!

Davis: Must we always do that..?
Yolei: Yep! ^_^

*TAKATO: 2100*
*KAZU: 2700*
Takato's Field:
MetalGreymon. 8 stars. ATK: 2900 = 3200 DEF:2400 = 2700
Machine Conversion Factory. Magic card. Equip. Increase the ATK & DEF of an Machine-type monster or an Android-type Digimon by 300 points.
Kazu's Field:
Nothing.
Amazed by Takato's performance, the Digidestined and Pokemon trainers were watching a Duel Monster/Digimon battle between two Digimon Tamers. One was Takato, Digimon partner is his Guilmon, and has a powerful Digimon on his side of the field. On the other side was Kazu, partner of the dense Guardromon, whom found himself in a tight spot.
Netherless, even though there is a powerful monster on the field, you can still win with Magic, Trap or Effect Monster cards. And that is what Kazu is hoping for in his next turn.
"All right! Draw!" Kazu called out, drawing a card. When he looked at it, he smiled. "Sweet! I place one card face down!" Kazu placed the card he drew into his Duel Disk before taking another card out of his hand. "And now, I will activate a Magic card called Pot of Greed!"
Max called out. "What does that do?"
"It allows Kazu to draw two more cards from his deck!" Henry replied.
"That's right!" Kazu said, drawing two cards from his deck. When he looked at his hand, he gave out a small chuckle. "Oh, this is too sweet! I'm gonna make you lose some more life points, Takato!"
"Oh, really? How?!" Takato asked.
"All right! Here is what I'm gonna do! Activate the face down card, a Duelest's favourite! Reborn Monster!" Kazu called out as his face down card flipped up. "With this, I can bring a monster back from the graveyard from either your's or mine! And I will bring back my Myotismon in DEF position!"
Takato blinked as Myotismon appeared in Kazu's side of the field, kneeling down as his position was in DEF. "What are you doing, Kazu? Myotismon's DEF points is 2300!"
"Not for long because I'm gonna give him this new Equip Magic card! Digital Demon Armour!" Kazu shouted out, placing a card onto the field behind Myotismon's. "This card will increase a Ghost-type Digimon's DEF by 700 points!"
"That will make Myotismon's DEF by 3000!!! But, its not enough! MetalGreymon has 200 more ATK points then Myotismon, meaning that Takato will blast him away in the next turn!" Rika announced.
"Yes, I know that... That is why I'm placing two cards face-down on my field." Kazu said, placing two cards down. "And finally, I shall end my turn."
As soon as Kazu said that, Takato drew a card and pointed at his MetalGreymon. "All right, MetalGreymon! Destroy Myotismon with your Giga Blaster!"
With that said, Takato's MetalGreymon roared and fired off two missles from his chest plate. But, before it could hit Myotismon, one of Kazu's face-down card flipped up.
"What in the...?" Henry gasped.
"A Quick Play Magic card?!" Terriermon asked, blinking.
Kazu nodded. "Yep! Known as The Reliable Guardian! With this, Myotismon's DEF will be increased with another 700 points!"
"NO!" Takato swore as MetalGreymon's attack not only didn't destroy Myotismon but, Takato's life points went down.
*TAKATO: 1600*
"Right? Are you done?" Kazu asked, smiling.
Takato looked at his hand before sighing. "I'm done..."
Kazu smirked. "Good! I will draw my next card!" With that done, Kazu placed another card onto his field. "All right, after I place this card on the field, I will now switch my Myotismon in ATK position. "
"What?!" Takato asked, almost yelling. His eyes widen in shock as Myotismon stood up in ATK position and a face-down card appeared behind him. "What is this...?"
"And then, end turn!" Kazu said, smiling.
Kenta was shocked as well. "Kazu?! What are you thinking!?"
"If MetalGreymon destroys your Myotismon, your life points will be dropped to 2100!" Jeri said.
Henry was a bit worried. "Why would Kazu have Myotismon in ATK position where MetalGreymon could destroy him... He must have some sort of plan going on!"
"Yeah, I figured that out when that face down card appeared behind his Digimon... I wonder what he is thinking..." Rika muttered. "I just hope Takato can figure this out."
"This is getting better and better..." Edward muttered.
Misty turns to Brock with a chirping Togepi in her arms. "Brock, who do you think is gonna win?"
"I don't know, Misty. It seems that the both of them are not backing down. It seems that each turn, they are using Magic cards to damage their opponent's life points. Remember what Guilmon said at the beggining of the match? The battle will be over if one of the Dulest's life points reach zero." Brock said.
"Yeah... And I wonder whats gonna happen next..." Ash muttered.
After Takato drew a card from his deck, he stared at Kazu, thinking. "What is Kazu doing...? Why did he put Myotismon in ATK position? Either he is gone crazy or... he has plan! Neverless, I will attack now and make him lose some life points!" With a yell, Takato pointed at Myotismon. "All right, MetalGreymon! Destroy him!"
MetalGreymon roared as he charged towards Myotismon again. When Takato's monster reached to Kazu's side of the field, the face down card Kazu placed on his last turn flipped up. It's colour was pink.
"What sort of card is that?!" Yolei asked.
Henry paled. "A Trap card!"
"A TRAP CARD?!" Takato asked, almost shouting.
"Yeah! A Trap card! Titled, Spellbinding Circle!" Kazu said, smiling. "This will catch MetalGreymon, unabling him to change from ATK to DEF and making sure he won't attack again! Meaning, MetalGreymon has been caught!"
With a gasp, Takato watched as a circle with amazing power wrapped itself around MetalGreymon, preventing him from finishing Myotismon off. No matter how much he tried, MetalGreymon can't break free from the Spellbinding Circle.
"Hey, that wasn't fair! Let MetalGreymon go!" Agumon called out.
Tai sighed and placed his knuckles into Agumon's head. "Sit down, Agumon. This is legal. Its just a game, chill!"
Agumon just pouted. "Fine!"
"Not so crazy now, huh?" Kazu asked, simply looking at Takato, Jeri and Kenta.
"No..." Jeri said, bowing her head.
Kenta sighed. "Sorry, Kazu."
"No big. I've just caught myself an Ultimate!" Kazu said, smiling.
Takato muttered under his breath as he placed a card on his field. "I will place one face down card on my side of the field and end my turn."
Kazu laughed as he drew another card from his deck. One look and he cheered. "All right, Chumly! Prepare to say goodbye to your MetalGreymon! I will play a Magical Equip card called Axe of Dispair that will increase Myotismon's 2600 ATK power to a massive 3600 points!"
"Ah, nuts!" Takato said as an axe appeared in Myotismon's hands.
"And now, slice MetalGreymon in half!" Kazu said as Myotismon flew towards MetalGreymon at a high speed.
"Not so fast! Activate MY Trap card, Negate Attack!" Takato shouted out as his face down card flipped up. "This will stop Myotismon attacking for one turn!"
"One turn ONLY! Because you can't change MetalGreymon into DEF thanks to my Spellbinding Circle!" Kazu said as Myotismon landed in front of him again, leaving MetalGreymon alive. "I will place one card face down and end my turn."
When Takato drew another card from his hand, he sighed and placed it on his disk. "I will activate another Black Pendant that will increase MetalGreymon's power from 3200 to 3700!"
"Good! Even though MetalGreymon can't attack due to Kazu's Trap card, Myotismon can't attack MetalGreymon unless he wants to get destroyed!" Henry said. "Good job!"
"Thanks! Now I just have to figure out how I can make a comeback..." Takato muttered. "End turn!"
Kazu sighed. "If I can't destroy MetalGreymon, who can I destroy? Takato isn't stupid to put a monster in ATK position that has less points than Myotismon's, unless I put a monster in ATK position! That's it!"
"Well, Kazu?" Takato asked.
"I draw a card and place Golemon in ATK position!" Kazu announced as Golemon appared on the field. *Golemon. 3 stars. ATK: 1100 DEF: 2000* "And I will end my turn!"
Kenta slapped his head. "Kazu! What are thinking?!"
"OK... Now I'm confused..." Rika muttered.
"Well... unless Takato has a Magic card to free his MetalGreymon, he will have to summon a monster with a few ATK points higher than Golemon. Then, all Kazu has to do is get Myotismon to attack and win the battle." Henry explained.
Rika nodded. "I get it now.. Even though Kazu will lose some life points, he will still win."
"Yeah... I wonder if Takato has this figured out." Henry muttered.
"Kazu thinks I will fall for it?" Takato muttered, drawing a card from his deck. "Thinking that I will attack his Golemon with a Digimon or Duel Monster with a higher ATK power to lower some of his life points. If I do that, I'm sitting duck! I will just play a magic card to free MetalGreymon and destroy Golemon!"
"Well?" Kazu asked.
Takato smirked. "Jokes on you, Kazu! I will activate this Magic card, Remove Trap! Spellbinding Circle will be gone and MetalGreymon will win this duel for me!"
When Takato placed a card on his disk, the Remove Trap card appeared and began its work on Kazu's trap card.
"Oh my! I'm doomed! I'm doomed! Oh, woe is me!" Kazu said, in a mock-worried voice before he grinned. "Too bad! MetalGreymon is gonna be trapped! Remember, Chummy? My turn before Golemon's arrival, I placed a card face down? Well, here it is! A Trap card called Magic Jammer! Discarding one card from my hand, your Remove Trap is no longer working!"
"Dang it!" Takato muttered as he placed another card on his disk. "I will play Pot of Greed to draw two more cards from my deck!" When he drew two more cards and looked at them, his eyes widen. "Oh man!"
"Whats up? Releasing your in trouble?" Kazu asked, smiling.
To everyone's surprise, Takato was smirking. "Nope, Kazu. I have two cards in my hand to ensure victory! First of all, I will activate Magic card, Snatch Steal!"
"Snatch Steal!?" Kazu gasped.
"Yep! I will control your Golemon with this Magic card for how long I will like!" Takato explained. "Plus, for each of your turn, you will get a 1000 for your Life Points! But, thats never gonna happen as I will use MetalGreymon and Golemon to summon a NEW monster!"
"A new monster?!" Kazu gasped.
Takato nodded. "That's right! I will now sacrafice MetalGreymon and Golemon to summon... ANGEWOMON!"
The moment MetalGreymon and Golemon were gone, a beauitful female angel Digimon appeared on the field, a white light glowing around her. Ash, Misty, May and Max sweatdropped as Brock has his traditional goofy look on his face.
"A..Angewomon... Hubba bubba..." Brock said in his stupid voice.
"Nice to see he hasn't changed a bit..." Misty muttered.
May sighed. "Perfect..."
"Kazu! Angewomon's ATK power is 2500 but, she is also an Effect Digimon!" Takato called out.
***Angewomon. 7 stars. Light. Ultimate. Angel Digimon. ATK: 2500 DEF: 2200. EFFECT: If any Zombie, Ghost or Demon Monsters are on the field, Angewomon will automatically destroy them. Higher ATK or DEF doesn't count***
"That means..." Kazu's face paled. "Myotismon is toast!"
Takato nodded. "That's right!"
Placing her hands together and opening them, Angewomon created a holy shockwave that crushed Myotismon away. Kazu sighed as he discared Myotismon, Axe of Dispair, Spellbinding Circle and Digital Demon Armour. "Perfect! I lost!"
"Not only that, Kazu! You still lose life points due to my second Black Pendant that was attached to my MetalGreymon!" Takato said as Kazu's life points dropped.
*TAKATO: 1600*
*KAZU: 2200*
"This is getting intense!" Izzy said.
Tentomon nodded. "Yes... What happens if Angewomon attacks Kazu?"
"Kazu will lose 2500 life points, meaning Takato has won!" Henry explained.
"That's right! Angewomon, attack now! Celestial Arrow!" Takato shouted as Angewomon fired off an arrow that struck Kazu, covering him light as the battle was soon over.
*TAKATO: 1600*
*KAZU: 0*
"All right! Takatomon won!" Guilmon cheered.
Leomon nodded. "Well played, you two."
"Neverless, this is just a practise duel! In future, the battles will be tough!" Renamon said. "But, I have faith in Rika and she will be the best as always."
"Thank you, Renamon." Rika said, smiling.
"Good job, Takato!" Kazu called out.
"Thanks! You too!" Takato replied with a nod.
Henry turned to the Pokemon Trainers and Digidestined with a smile on his face. "Well? What did you think?"
"That was amazing!" Brendan said.
"Nine!" Chimed in his Ninetales.
Ken nodded. "I hope this Battle City will be off the hook for you guys!"
"I hope so too..." Henry muttered.
----------------------------------------
Hiding in a abandon shed somewhere in Domino City... Sonic and Knuckles were making their plans with Shadow as Tails was busy working on his Tornado 2.
"All right... Let's see what just happened here." Sonic said. "Dr Eggman's machine opened up a portal with the help of the seven Chaos Emeralds. The moment Metal Shadow destroyed the machine, it created Chaos Control that brought us here."
"Maybe not only us, Sonic... Maybe there were others that got caught in the blast." Shadow said.
"Shadow is right, Sonic! Amy must be here as well! She was with me in the Tornado 2, above Angel Island before we got here!" Tails spoke up as he closed the lid on his engine.
Sonic grunted. "Amy is here... And so will Eggman and his cronies since they were the closest to that metal trash!"
"And also Angel Island! My Chaotix Crew are on this planet as well..." Knuckles muttered. "Sonic, I think its best to find everyone and figure out what we are going to do!"
Shadow nodded. "He is right! And we all know that the Chaos Emeralds are in this world since that kid Knuckles was following has one of them!"
"According to my Chaos scanners, there is only one Emerald located in this city and that boy has it! The other 6 are located in a Japan city area called Shinjuku. Its offering some sort of competition called Battle City. I guess that is where that kid is heading to!" Tails said.
"So... after we find the other six Emeralds over there... we will get the last one from that kid." Knuckles muttered. "And then, we will go out and find the others that was caught in Chaos Control."
"Sounds like a plan." Shadow muttered.
"It has to be a good plan otherwise..." Sonic sighed. "We gotta stop Eggman as well... He might have some cooky plan to take over this world!"
"What are we waiting for then?" Shadow asked. "Let's move!"
---------------------------------------
"So... apart from you guys... are there any other Tamers?" Izzy asked once the Tamers sat down on the benches where the Digidestined and the Tamers were at during the duel.
Kenta nodded as the girls from Digidestined and Trainers started to gasp and fawn over the cuteness of MarineAngemon. "Yeah, there is. Henry's little sister, Susie. Her partner is Lopmon. And Ryo, partner of Cyberdramon."
"Ryo?" Ken gasped. "I knew a Ryo once."
"Hmm... Maybe this Ryo is different. His last name is Akiyama." Takato said.
Ken leapt up in shock. "His last name was Akiyama as well!"
"That's weird..." Ash muttered.
Rika sighed. "Listen... The Battle City starts tomorrow afternoon. Come round there since Ryo is entering as well."
"OK..." Ken said, nodding.
Wormmon sighed. "I hope its the same Ryo."
"If it is the same Ryo, then why is he here in this world?" Ken asked. "It doesn't make sense..."
Rika sighed and turned to the other Tamers. "I think we better head back home. Tomorrow, we all have school in the morning but, we can leave early to join the tourament. Kenta and Jeri can leave as well since they got special permission with the help of Takato and Kazu."
"Then, that means..." Kenta muttered with a big grin.
Kazu grinned as well. "NO SCHOOL, NO WORK, NO NOTHING FOR A WHOLE MONTH!!!"
Henry sighed. "Its gonna be a long month..."
"I can see that." Cody muttered.
"Excuse me, Kazu. What time is it?" Guardromon asked.
"Good grief..." Kazu muttered, checking his watch. "Its 12:00, Guardromon."
"Time for lunch!" Veemon spoke out.
"Finally." Armadilliomon said, nodding.
Guardromon looked at HIS watch, which was amusing since it was tied up with string as his arm is VERY large. "According to mine, its 6:00 in the evening. Time to head home."
"Nope, its noon." Rika muttered, checking her watch.
"Kazu... why is Guardromon wearing a watch?" Leomon asked.
Kazu sighed as he stood up. "Do you really want to know?"
"No... Now you mentioned it, I don't." Leomon said.
"Guardromon... let me see your watch..." Kazu said, in a calm voice.
Guardromon held his arm down. "Here you are, Kazu."
"Thank you..." Kazu said, look at Guardromon's watch before grabbing a metal pole and starting to wack Guardromon's head. "YOU STUPID DOOFUS!!!"
Guardromon didn't feel any pain as his body wasn't damaged, though the metal pole was starting to bend a lot. "Why? What is the matter, Kazu?"
"THIS ISN'T A WATCH!!! ITS A COMPASS!!! ITS POINTING SOUTH!!!" Kazu yelled out in fury, rapidly banging the pole.
"I can't believe he is wacking his own Digimon..." Kari said, in shock.
Agumon shrugged. "I won't worry about Guardromon... His armour is impossible to break. I'm more worried about the metal pole he is using."
"Are they like this a lot?" Tai asks.
"Oh yeah, a lot..." Takato replied, with a sweatdrop.
Jeri sighed. "Well, at least Kazu is using a metal pole. Last time, it was a baseball bat."
"Yeah... Took Kazu a WEEK to stop shaking." Terriermon added, with a small smirk.
Edward rubbed his head, trying to figure out the weirdness around him. "Yeesh, Tamers and Digimon sure have some strange relationship here... I wonder what is the battle going to be like tomorrow..."
Before anyone could say something, the door opened and a male adult dressed in a black suit with black glasses walked into the room. "Hello there."
"Hey, Mr Yamaki." Takato greeted with a nod.
"I bet all of you are hungry since its noon now." Yamaki asks.
Before anyone could reply, Ash's stomach started to growl. "Yeah! Let's eat!"
Pikachu nodded. "Pika!"
"Same old Ash..." Misty said, with a smile.
Yamaki smirked before noticing Kazu still hitting Guardromon with the pole. "OK... What did Guardromon did this time?"
The Digidestined and Trainers fell down laughing since they figured out that Kazu getting really annoyed with Guardromon must have happened A LOT!
---------------------------------------
The train stopped as it arrived at Shinjuku. On board where Yugi, Tea, Joey, Tristan and Koinumon. With the group were Yugi's Grandpa and Joey's sister, Serenity. Koinumon was being hugged by Serenity because of his cuteness. Plus, SnowAgumon has his head popped out of the bag belonging to Tea.
"This is it! This is where the new Battle City is going to take place! Shinjuku!" Yugi said, with a smile on his face.
Yugi's Grandpa, Solomon, chuckled. "I'm glad to see your so happy, Yugi. I hope you will enjoy battling in this competition."
"I hope so too, Grandpa." Yugi replied.
"I have to agree. Yugi only competed in Duelest Kingdom to save his Grandpa and the original Battle City was to stop Marik." Tea spoke up.
Joey nodded. "But now, me and Yugi are in this for fun! And gonna mark ourselves as top duelests!"
"I bet Kaiba is gonna enter like he did in his last Battle City." Tristan said, with a smirk.
"And I hope Mai will be in it as well." SnowAgumon spoke up.
Serenity giggled and looked down at the squirming Koinumon. "Don't you have anything to say?"
"I would... *gasp* ... if I have some air.... *gasp* ... please?" Koinumon said, his face was blue and he was gasping for air. "Serenity.... *gasp* .... YOU HAVE A STRONG GRIP!!!"
"Sorry!" Serenity said, gasping as she dropped Koinumon on the floor. "Oh, dear. Koinumon, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine..." Koinumon muttered as his face was on the floor. "I'm just checking out the detail on this floor anyway. It's really neat."
Tristan shook his head as he picked Koinumon up and got off his seat. "Come on, let's get off the train."
And then, Red Eyes popped his head out. Evil look and smile on his face as he brought out a teddy bear and a blanket. "Need help there, Koinumon?"
"YOUR MEAN!!!" Koinumon said as a burst of waterfall tears came out.
A giggle from Serenity and massive sweatdrops rolled down the side of the heads belonging to Tea, Joey and Tristan.
"Oh brother..." Tea sighed.
"You have to find a In-Training to Rookie Digivolve card soon..." Joey muttered.
Tristan nodded. "I know... I know..."
Yugi and Solomon laughed as they started to get up. Yugi looked out of the window and gasped. "What in the...?"
"Yugi? Whats the matter?" Solomon asked.
"Grandpa? Remember I told you about that boy that Digivolved into Lowemon?" Yugi asked, his eyes staying on the window.
Solomon nodded. "Yes? So?"
"LOOK!" Yugi pointed.
Solomon looked out of the window to notice a boy wearing a bandana, dressed in a blue jacket with blue trousers and white sneakers. He turned back to grandson. "Are you sure?"
"I am!" Yugi said.
//Wrong, Yugi//
/Wrong?! What do you mean I'm wrong?!/
//This boy is different. He has shorter hair, different clothes... Yugi, even if that boy looked like the one who became Lowemon against that Devidramon we saw doesn't mean he is the same one. Who knows, it could be his twin//
/Maybe your right... I've gone over the top back there. Its best not to go up to him and talk. He will think I'm some sort of wierdo thinking he can change into a Digimon/
//Good. Better get off the train//
/Right.../
"Yugi? What did Yami said?" Solomon asked.
Yugi sighed. "He suggests that the boy outside isn't the one I saw and I agree... I'm getting a little crazy here..."
"Don't worry, Yugi. Come on, we better get off the train." Solomon said, leading his grandson off the transport.
Outside, the young boy Yugi saw walked off and entered a small canteen where he met up with another boy dressed in a yellow shirt and a red jacket with a brown hat that has goggles upon it. He nodded towards his friend. "Hey, Takuya."
"Koji!" Takuya said, waving. "Whats up?"
"I spotted that guy who is both Duelest Kingdom and Battle City Champion, Yugi Muto. I was able to reconised him with that photo Lady Ophanimon showed us." Koji explained, sitting down at the table.
Takuya nodded. "Yeah... Koichi told us that. When do you think we should reveal ourselves as Digidestined and Legendary Warriors? According to the Great Angels, our powers are the only way to win this mysterious battle."
"I don't know... But, I hope its sooner rather than later..." Koji muttered. "Come on... Let's find the others..."
"Right."
----------------------------------
High on a hill that over looks some parts of Shinjuku, a limo stopped and out stepped Seto Kaiba. Looking down at the city where his next Battle City will begin, he laughed as he is going to show everyone that he will be a champion once again.
With a small smile, he took out his Golddramon card and smirked. "My faith in Obelisk the Tormentor proved to me that one card can't give me victory all the time. Unless I put my faith in all my cards, I will never be the champion I once was before Yugi and his Exodia came along. I will make sure I will build the most powerful Duel Monster deck in the entire world, combind with the new Digimon-type cards, I will be unstoppable! Yugi... if you beat me for the third time... I will know you are, in without any doubt, the best. And I promise you that."
Kaiba placed his Golddramon card away before staring into the air. "Let the Battle City being, AGAIN!!!"
-------------------------------
Stay tune for the next chapter. Going slowly but, I'm hoping to get there... I hope. HIT IT!
