Hello. My name is Jiro Uchiha, and I will be writing this chapter of The Rainbow Duelists. I hope you enjoy, as my writing style is a tad bit different than the one this fic has been written in. Thanks, Jiro "The Ghetto Shaman" Uchiha

Lynne cursed under her breath, placing Wildheart's card in the graveyard slot, glancing to her hand. "I place one card facedown and end my turn." she said, placing one card down, the hologram of the card appearing in front of her.
Maurice chuckled, drawing as he glanced to his hand. "I play the spell card Card Destruction. This forces both of us to discard our whole hand and redraw the same amount of cards." he said, neatly pressing his cards together and sliding them into the graveyard, replacing them with the same number of cards as he watched Lynne do the same. Maurice smiled when he saw Lynne frown, likely displeased at the hand she drew. He looked to his hand, forming a plan as he glanced back to the field.
"I summon Dark Resonator in defense mode." Maurice stated, placing the card on his duel disk sideways, the small, fiendish creature wielding it's rods smiling wickedly. The fiend crossed it's rods in an X formation across it's chest as it turned blue, symbolizing that it was in defense mode. (Atk:1300/Def:300) Maurice hummed. "I play two cards face down." he said, placing two cards in his duel disk as the holograms appeared behind his monsters. "Next, My End of Anubis will attack you directly!" he called, the jackal headed monster surging towards Lynne. She pressed a button on her duel disk, her facedown flipping up.
"I activate the trap card Sakuretsu Armor! This trap allows me to destroy one attacking monster!" she called, the hologram coating Lynne in sharp armor that dug into the Jackal when he reached her, the jackal exploding in a large burst of pixels. Maurice scoffed, sighing. "Lucky move. I end my turn." he said, a smile on his face.
Lynne drew, looking from her hand to Maurice's field. What was she supposed to do against two facedowns and a monster? She looked to the card she just drew, hoping that it would help in some ay. She blinked. "I play the spell card Graceful Charity." she stated, drawing three cards, looking through her hand and selecting two cards and discarding them. She smiled at the cards she had drawn, grabbing one of them and activating it.
"I activate the spell card Swords of Revealing Light!" she said, green blades raining down from the sky and surrounding Maurice's side of the field, the dark skinned man gritting his teeth at the move. Lynne calmed herself, looking at her hand, remembering that Maurice had two facedowns. "I summon Chaos-End Master in attack mode!" she called, placing the card on her duel disk, the white clothed angel winged warrior rising from the card. (Atk:1500/Def:1000)
"I equip my Chaos-End Master with the Equip Spell Assault Armor!" she called, a golden aura forming around her Monster. "When I activate this spell, my monster gains 300 attack points!" she called, the winged warrior's attack points rising to 1800. "However, I can send this spell card to the graveyard to allow my Chaos-End Master to attack twice!" she called, the aura disappearing as she discard the card. With her monster's attack points back at 1500, Lynne inhaled.
"Chaos-End Master, attack his Dark Resonator!" she called, the winged warrior surging forward as Maurice smiled. "Aren't you forgetting that my Dark Resonator can prevent it's destruction once per turn?" he asked, taunting her as the winged warrior kicked the fiend, who laughed as he remained on the field. Lynne smirked. "Are you forgetting that my Assault Armor let's me attack twice?" she called, and Maurice chuckled.
"I activate the Trap card Negate attack!" he called, a barrier forming around Dark Resonator as Chaos-End Master's attack failed. Lynne frowned. Why wait until the second attack? She growled. "I play one card facedown and end my turn." she said, Maurice chuckling as he drew.
He looked to his hand, sighing. "I summon A Man with Wdjat in attack mode!" he stated, the man rising from his card, donning glowing hands, a red robe and the Millennium Eye on his forehead. "I activate his special ability, which allows me to look at one of your facedowns!" he said, smiling as her facedown, a trap card called Battle Mania, flipped up briefly. "Battle Mania huh? Trying to force my resonator to attack?" he wondered aloud, chuckling as he rubbed his chin.
"Next, My Man with Wdjat will attack your Chaos-End Master!" he called, the man spinning his arms about, the winged warrior exploding as Lynne's lifepoints dropped to 3900. Maurice laughed, taking in a deep breath. "Next, I'm going to tune my Man with Wdjat to my Dark Resonator!" he called out, the man vaulting into the air as the small fiend turned into three balls of light and green rings, surrounding the man as he erupted in a burst of light.
"I hope you're ready, because I summon Five Fiend Trapper!" he called, the light dimming as a five legged robot with a large blue eye crashed into the ground, a small black fiend giggling from inside the mech. (Atk: 2750/Def: 2250) Maurice laughed. "Next, I play one card facedown and end my turn." he stated, and Lynne narrowed her eyes as she growled.
She drew, smirking as she saw the card atop her deck. She snickered, slamming the card down on her duel disk. "I activate the spell card Double Summon!" she called, activating the spell that did exactly what it's name implied. She pulled another spell from her hand, activating right after.
"I then activate 'The Warrior Returning Alive'!" she called, her Chaos-End Master ejecting from her grave as she summoned him in attack mode. She smiled. "Next, I summon Dandylion in attack mode!" she called, summoning the flower with the cat face in defense mode. (Def: 300) "Then, I'll play one card face down and end my turn." she said, Maurice laughing as he drew, a set of swords vanishing from around him.
"Only two more turns until you lose." he said, humming as he looked to his hand. "I think I'll play two cards face down and end my turn." he said, and Lynne narrowed her eyes at his odd play, her monsters still safe. She drew, looking at the card she drew as she exhaled. Maurice smirked.
"I activate my first Trap card, Raigeki Break. By discarding one card, I can destroy one card on the field, and I think I'll destroy your swords of Revealing light." He said, lightning raining down and striking the swords, making them dissipate. He laughed. "And the card I discarded was Beiige, Vanguard of Dark World, who, when discarded by a card effect, is immediately summoned to my side of the field." he said, the almost necrotic vanguard rising from the ground, spear in hand.
Lynne cursed as she now had more than one monster to deal with. "I sacrifice my Dandylion to summon Earth Armor Ninja!" she called, the Earth Attribute Warrior rising from the earth. "Next, I tune my Earth Armor Ninja to My Chaos-End Master!" she called, and Maurice frowned. "I tune my level 3 Chaos-End Master to my level 5 Earth Armor Ninja to synchro summon… Annaxena, Princess of Warriors!" she called as the ninja erupted in light, the winged warrior having transformed into three green rings.
When the light faded, Maurice cursed as he looked across the field. Annaxena donned a roman style helmet, shielding most of her face, Maurice grimacing at how bright her golden armor was, along with her golden boots and Gold, low cut pants. Her pink eyes were barely visible beneath her long white hair, a frown forming on the monster's face as she drew two swords, Maurice wondering exactly what he could do. He looked to his duel disk, noticing the Warrior Princess' attack and defense points. (Atk: 2900/Def: 3000.)
Lynne smiled, folding her arms. "I end my turn." she said, and Maurice frowned, drawing as he glanced to his hand. Lynne laughed, her face-down Battle Mania flipping up. "I activate Battle Mania! This trap forces all of your faceup monsters into attack mode, and forces them to attack as well!" she called out, and the dark skinned man cursed aloud, realizing there was nothing he could do short of destroying his own monsters that would stop this.
Standing on the balcony, Ian blinked, impressed by both Lynne's beauty and dueling skills. "I think she just won." he said, Flynn scoffing next to him. "Don't be so sure."
Entering his Battle Phase, Maurice grew irritated. "Beiige, attack her Warrior Princess!" he called, the monster, who only had 1600 attack points, charged across the field, jabbing his spear at Annaxena, who stepped to the side and planted one of her swords in the monster's skull, watching it explode into a million pixels as Maurice lost 1300 life points.
Maurice Snegoff: 4000LP – 2700LP
Maurice cursed. "Five Fiend Trapper, Attack Annaxena!" he called, angered at how futile the attack was, the warrior princess simply tossing her sword at the mech, causing it, and the small fiend inside of it, to explode, Maurice's lifepoints dropping even further.
Maurice Snegoff: 2700LP-2550LP
Maurice placed one monster in facedown defense mode, activating one of his two facedowns. "I activate Call Of The Haunted!" he called, bringing back Dark Resonator.
Ian blinked. "Dark Resonator? Wouldn't Five Fiend Trapper be better?" he wondered aloud, and Flynn sighed. "Perhaps he's going to use the tuner to Synchro Summon a different Synchro Monster." he said, and Ian hummed, realizing that he could do that too.
Lynne drew, a smile on her face as she looked at her hand. "I activate the spell card Heavy Storm, which destroys all spells and traps on the field!" she called, the spells and traps on the field being decimated in a large gust of wind. With Call of the Haunted destroyed, Maurice watched as Dark Resonator vanished. Lynne smiled, entering her battle phase.
"Annaxena, attack his facedown!" she called, the warrior princess surging forward and slicing as the facedown card, which flipped up, turning out to be Renge, Gatekeeper of Dark World. With the monster destroyed, Maurice breathed a sigh of relief. "Too bad I have another turn to defeat you." he said with a smirk, Lynne beginning to laugh. Maurice frowned. "What's so funny?" he asked, and Lynne smiled, inhaling.
"My Annaxena's special ability is dependent on the type of monster she's fighting, and it just so happens that when Annaxena defeats a Fiend type monster, she gets to attack again." she stated, and Maurice froze, frantically looking at his duel disk, trying to think up a play, realizing too late that there was nothing he could do. Annaxena closed in, her twin blades striking him in an X shaped arc, making him fly back as his life points vanished.
Maurice Snegoff: 2550LP-0LP
Winner: Lynne Colress
The surrounding people cheered as Maurice growled in anger, shaking his head at his loss. Ian clapped, looking about and noticing that Flynn wasn't nearby. Finding it odd, he began to walk around to look for him. Wait, why am I looking for Flynn when I COULD be looking for Eikza instead. He thought, a smirk on his face as he began to search for the girl.
Rebecca stood outside, exhaling as she thought to herself. Damn Ian and not calling me by my name. She thought, snickering at the thought of the Pyro duelist. Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of laughter, Rebecca turning to notice three boys near her age standing behind her. She narrowed her eyes.
"And what do you want?" she asked, and the boy in the center, a lanky figure with dirty blonde hair, smirked, folding his almost stick like arms. "We want to know what a pretty girl such as yourself is doing all alone out here." he said, and she folded her arms. "That, is none of your business." she said, and the boy in the middle chuckled. "Oh I think it is. There are three of us and one of you." he said, and Rebecca scoffed. "And what does that mean? I could take all three of you. Line you three up like Dominoes and knock you over." she said, and the lanky boy narrowed his eyes. "Izzat right?"
She nodded. "It is." she said, and he laughed. "Well, then prove it. Duel the three of us one after the other without recovering." he said, and she frowned, pulling her duel desk from where she left it on her waist and hooked it to her wrist. "Bring it on then!" she shouted, the boy on the left, a short, pudgy fella with one side of his head shaved, stepped forward.
"I'll go first." he said, hooking his duel disk to his wrist and drawing his hand. Rebecca looked to her duel disk.
Rebecca: 4000LP
Opponent: 4000LP
"I'll go first!" Rebecca called, pulling a card from the top of her deck. She looked to her hand, smiling at her luck. "I play two cards face-down!" she called, two large holograms appearing in front of her. "Next, I summon 'Deep Sea Diva' in defense mode!" she called, the singing mermaid appearing, her pink flesh reflecting off the natural light. (Def: 400) She smiled.
"I activate my Diva's special ability, which allow me to summon one level 3 or lower Sea-Serpent type monster from my deck, and I summon Atlantean Marksman in attack mode!" she called, the amphibious crossbow wielder rising from the card that appeared next to the diva. (Atk: 1400)
"Now I end my turn." she said, the boy with the shaved head narrowing his eyes. "Lame turn, your monsters suck." he said, smiling. "I summon Dark Blade in attack mode!" he called, the dark warrior brandishing his two large blades as he rose. (Atk: 1800) He smiled. "Dark Blade, attack her Marksman!" he called, the warrior making a groaning noise as he surged forward, lifting his blades above his head.
Rebecca smiled. "That move was stupid. And fatal. I activate my trap, Reinforcements!" she called, small fish appearing around the Marksman, increasing his attack point by 500. (Atk:1400-1900) The Marksman jabbed his crossbow out, shooting the dual blade wielding warrior and making him explode, the boy's life point's dropping.
Opponent: 4000-3900LP
The boy cursed, his anger causing him to crumble his hand. Rebecca smiled. "If you thought that was bad, wait until I activate my Marksman's ability!" she called, reaching towards her deck. "Whenever Battle damage is inflicted by my Marksman, I can special summon a level 4 or below Sea Serpent Monster from my deck with 'Atlantean in it's name." she called, summoning an armored man on an armored sea horse that made the boy blink.
"I summon my Atlantean Dragoons in attack mode!" she called. (Atk: 1800) The boy growled. "I end my turn." he said, and Rebecca smiled.
"I draw!" she called, pulling the top card from her deck. "I switch my Deep Sea Diva into attack mode!" she called, the blue aura covering the singing mermaid dissipating. (Atk: 200) "Next, I summon another Atlantean Marksman!" she called, a second amphibious crossbow wielder appearing.
She smiled as she entered her battle phase. "All of my monsters attack you directly!" she called, the four monsters surging in and striking the boy, who screamed as his lifepoints vanished.
Opponent: 3900-0LP
Rebecca flipped her hair, placing her hand on her hip as the second boy, one who Rebecca found mildly attractive, walked up, looking much more confident then his friend. Rebecca watched him draw, her turn ended as the duel continued.
Rebecca: 4000LP
Opponent: 4000LP
Her opponent hummed. "I summon Mystical Elf in defense mode." he called, the blue skinned elf appearing as a blue aura coated her. (Def: 2000) "Next, I activate the spell card Lightwave Tuning, which makes my Elf a tuner monster as long as she remains on the field." he said, and Rebecca narrowed her eyes at the peculiar play. "I now end my turn." he said, and Rebecca smiled.
"Ended the duel is more like it." she said as she drew. "I play one card face-down." she said, one large hologram appearing. She entered her battle phase, a smile on her face. "I hope you don't think that having more defense than I do attack is going to help you." she said, and he blinked, wondering what she meant.
"Lemme show you what I mean instead." she said as she focus back onto the field. "My 'Atlantean Dragoons'' special ability allows all Level 3 and below Sea-Serpent monsters I control to attack you directly!" she called.
"So, my two Atlantean Marksman can attack you directly!" she called, and the boy cursed as they sprung up, launching crossbow bolts past his elf and striking him, making his lifepoints fall drastically.
Opponent: 4000LP – 1200LP
She laughed. "However, since you boys did compliment me, I won't humiliate you too bad. I choose not to activate my Marksman's ability. Instead, I activate the trap card 'Urgent Tuning'!" she called, the boy paling in shock at the card as it flipped up.
"Let me give you a treat, regardless of whether or not it's the one you wanted." she said, smiling. "I tune my level 2 Deep Sea Diva with my level 3 Atlantean Marksman and my Level 4 Atlantean Dragoons to synchro summon…." she trailed off as the pink mermaid broke into two huge green rings and the two undersea monsters became seven white dots, erupting in a huge burst of water.
Water….. that froze solid.
"I synchro Summon Trishula, Dragon of The Ice Barrier!" she called, the ice exploding as the three headed dragon roared. The boy took a step back. Rebecca laughed. "When Trishula is summon, he can remove from play a card from your hand, field and graveyard. However, all Trishula needs to do is remove your Elf from play and attack you directly, since it's still my Battle phase." she said, ice encasing the Elf and shattering it.
The dragon's three heads opened their maws launching large white blasts at the boy, who flew back as he was defeated.
Opponent: 1200LP – 0LP
The tall, lanky boy gulped as he stepped forward, his ice locked on the huge dragon before him. Rebecca rose a brow. "Your move." she said, and he shakily drew one card from his deck.
He paled in shock. "I….I have no monsters in my hand." he said, his turn ending. Rebecca folded her arms after she drew. "This is why you shouldn't go off trying to pick up girls. Because they can duel you into the ground." she said, slamming a single card on the field. "I activate the spell card De-Synchro, which allows me to replace one of my Synchro Monsters with it's Synchro material." she said, the dragon vanishing as the Diva, Marksman and Dragoons re-appeared.
"Next, I'll attack you with all three of my monsters." she said, the three monsters charging in as she smiled.
Opponent: 4000 LP – 800 LP
"Next, I activate a second Urgent Tuning." she said, and he blinked, watching as the three Water monsters vanished as the dragon re-appeared. She smiled, rubbing the dragon's leg as if it were her pet. "I think you know what happens next." she said, a sly smile on her face.
Ian frowned, looking about the building, grumbling at the lack of the duelist who reminded him of Akiza. He sighed, wondering what he should do next. "I should probably go find Flynn." he said, and then he blinked. "Or, I can try and get Lynne's autograph and phone number." he said, chuckling as he headed back to the room he last saw the duelist in.
Flynn sighed as he walked out of the building, feeling the breeze on his face, his eyes still covered with the blindfold. He heard footsteps to his left, straining his ears to hear. He turned, briefly lifting his blindfold to look at the person walking up to him. He saw a cape, and a suit that was impeccably clean. Along with pale skin and eyes covered slightly by dark hair, Flynn replaced his blindfold with a frown at the man's appearance.
"You took notice of my arrival without even looking at me. Very Impressive." he said, Flynn wondering if he heard an accent or if he was just imagining thing. The man made a noise, as if surprised, before bowing, something Flynn could feel from the shift in the air. "My apologies for not introducing myself. My name is Count." he said, and Flynn nodded. "Flynn." He responded, only to avoiding being rude. The man chuckled, reaching into his suit.
"I know who you are." he said, laughing as he extended his hand, Flynn grabbing something from it. "That's my number. I run a small production company and could use someone like you as an actor. I'd hope you'd consider." he said, and Flynn narrowed his eyes under the blindfold, the man turning around. "One more thing. Please, consider this advanced payment, or simply a gift, and not a bribe." he said, holding something else out to Flynn.
Flynn took what felt like a card from his hand as he walked away. Flynn lifted his blindfold, looking down at a Synchro monster called Dark Dragon. Why would this man want me to have this card in particular? He wondered, staring off in the direction the man known as Count left in. Flynn pocketed the card, scoffing as he walked back into the building, his thoughts on why the owner of a production company would randomly give him a card and offer him a job.
He shook his head, sighing as he walked about the building looking for Ian, who was bound to be chasing some poor woman's skirt.
