Chapter 10 Wavering Eyes The Last Match against LDS

Recap:

After my win against Izumi-san, who was the master of the Mixed Course of LDS. Made me have doubts about my ideals, about me supporting my loved ones when they duel and relying on Action Cards when I duel with my monsters. However, that is something that will have to be dealt with later, however, I know that I'm not the only one having doubts about anything.

Yuzu kept looking at Naomi as the mysterious girl's face from last night kept mixing in with Naomi's face. Yuzu shook her head as she tried to get the image out of her mind. "Yuzu are you okay," Yuya asked with concern eyes. "Y-Yeah, I'm alright" Yuzu replied as she got the image out of her head. "Well, you're up next Yuzu makes us all proud" Yuya said, Yuzu now had determination in her eyes. "Yeah, leave it me, I'll give us our final win!" Yuzu vowed as Naomi looked at Yuzu as she began to ponder about what happened moments ago.

"I... Xyz Summoned Didn't I. I may not remember what happened during the duel with Izumi-san, but I know the monster that was on my field was a Xyz Monster. I made things worse for You Show, my doppelganger used Xyz and so did I. Now they think I really did attack Sawatari-san" Naomi thought. "Now Yuzu-chan must really think I'm the same person from last night. I'll talk to her after her match is over."

Naomi saw the same tan-skinned girl from before as she revealed herself to be Masumi Kotsu, Ace of LDS Fusion Course. "So, which one of you will be my opponent," Masumi asked as she raises her duel disk. "I will!" Yuzu declared "I have to win this duel. We only need one more win and then You Show, and Naomi-chan is safe, but" Yuzu thought thinking about the same girl from last night.

A chuckle snapped her out of her thoughts as the person who just chuckled revealed to be Masumi who flipped her hair while smirking confidently which made Yuzu nervous just a tiny bit.

Both girls stood in the area as the Action Field: Crystal Corridor was now activated. "A field perfect for my little Yuzu so everyone can see her shine" Shuzo cooed making Yuzu embarrassed making her mumble under her mouth. "It's really funny someone like you can have any shine" Masumi taunted "what" Yuzu growled "your eyes lackluster, if you keep having doubts in your heart then you can never shine," Masumi said making Yuzu gasp in surprise. "How can I tell, it's because my Papa is a Jeweler, so I have seen jewels with true shine something you obviously lack."

Yuzu thought more about the girl last night as Naomi's face and hers kept overlapping each other. Yuzu shook her head rapidly getting the image out her mind once more. "Quit spouting nonsense! I'll show you that I have no doubts whatsoever, especially when I win!" Yuzu shouted activating her duel disk.

Yuya: Duelists locked in battle!

Gongenzaka: kicking against the earth and dancing in the air alongside their monsters!

Naomi: They Storm through this field!

Tatsuya: Behold!

Ayu: This is the newest and

Futoshi: Greatest evolution of dueling!

The kids: Action!

'DUEL!" Both girls shouted in unison as Action Cards spread throughout the area.

"I activate the Trap Card 'Tranquil Melodious' the Battle Damage Involving a 'Melodious' Monster is reduced to 0, and I gain LP equal to that amount, "Yuzu said the trap emitted a bright light as it enveloped Yuzu in that brilliance.

Yuzu looked around the room until she spotted an Action Card that could save her at this moment as she lunged towards the Action Card."Yuzu-chan, don't!" Naomi warned, but Yuzu already slammed her hand against the crystal pillar as she turned around revealing the card to be on the other side. "Your eyes must be very clouded with doubts, as I thought you don't lack the brilliance of a diamond, but you don't have the power to protect your school. Pathetic" Masumi stated Lady Brilliant Diamond slashed Mozarta causing shockwaves making Yuzu fly to the other side of the room.

Yuzu:2100-2100=0 LP

MASUMI WINS!

"Ah, she really did lose" Sora commented making Naomi smack him across the head, as she gave a disappointing look towards Sora for that unnecessary comment. Naomi also went into the room, seeing Yuya on the floor and Yuzu with a downcast look in her eyes. Naomi took Yuzu's hand, ignoring everyone calls and she went outside and then to the back of You Show as Naomi looked at Yuzu with a serious expression on her face as Yuzu didn't meet Naomi's gaze and looked down looking at the floor.

"I have to say two things, first I'm so sorry Yuzu-chan" Naomi apologized bowing her head making the pink-haired girl look at her. "It was because I somehow used Xyz Summon in my duel that caused you to have doubts about me which caused you to lose against Masumi-san. I'm truly sorry from the bottom of my heart for making you have doubts."

"However, what I said before wasn't a lie, I really don't know to Xyz Summon all I remember was I wanted someone to give me the strength to win for You Show and then I felt like I lost consciousness and I think someone took over my body and dueled in my place. The same person that Xyz Summoned during my duel is probably the same person you saw last night" Naomi said, "but still I'm sorry for costing you the match, Yuzu-chan."

"I'm the one who should be saying sorry," Yuzu said "I got worried on my own and was having doubts about you having more secrets. That Masumi was right, my doubts did not only cloud my eyes but my judgment as well and it also cost us our final win."

This time Yuzu's words made Naomi shock this time as she looked at her childhood friend.

"I'm sorry for not believing in you even when I said, 'just because someone has the same face as you doesn't mean that was you' but I couldn't help have more doubts when something causes you to Xyz Summon and it just kept reminding me of that girl last night who also Xyz Summoned when she dueled Sawatari. I'm sorry Naomi-chan" Yuzu apologized as Naomi placed a hand on Yuzu's shoulder. "It's okay we're both at fault if only I told you guys everything and not keep any secrets. It's not just I don't trust you guys, it's just that I thought it was better to keep everything inside and hidden and not let my problems bother everyone. But I know I was just hurting my loved ones by not placing my utmost trust in them" Naomi said, "also it's alright to have doubts about things, but you'll able to overcome those doubts and become a better person and stronger at the same time because of your doubts we were able to overcome a wall in our friendship and we have a bond stronger than ever before."

Yuzu nodded "so let's go back everyone probably worried about us" Naomi suggested taking Yuzu's hand and pulled the girl back into You Show and it looks like the duel has already begun and it showed it was between Yaiba and Gongenzaka.

Naomi's eyes widened in realization as she knew who the boy was "Akaba Reiji-sama" Naomi whispered.

Author's Note: Okay, everybody here's chapter 10 and there was a slight change I made by making Reiji a year old because I think he should be older than 15. Although everybody's ages will be the same except for Shun, who age will also be 16 too. Also, thanks to everyone for pointing out mistakes in my earlier chapter before the changes I made. Yeah, chapter 9 was just a rough draft that I wrote months ago before I started to publish my story on, and didn't even check for the errors I made, sorry on my behalf. But still thank you guys very much for helping out. Now next chapter: The Final Match Against LDS; Yuya vs Reiji

You can Fusion Summon by returning all Monsters (Banished and Non-Banished. 2 Min) from your Graveyard and shuffling 2 of them back to your Deck/Extra Deck. When this Fusion Summon Monster attacks all face-up cards your opponent controls have their effects negated until the End Phase. You can banish this card for a 'Gem-Knight' Fusion Monster you control to attack all Monsters your opponent controls and if it does, the targeted monster gains ATK equal to half of the monster it battles during the battle phase.
