Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V: The HERO of Pendulum

Chapter 10: The Clear Winged HERO

Why. Is. Writing. This. Duel. Taking. So. Long!? Seriously! I can only get three turns in, so if things go at the rate they are, I should be done in… about two chapters, maybe three if something takes super long. So I'm updating early because a) I have a lot of free time today, b) because I've been kind of lax with updating as of late, and c) I want to finish this duel so that I don't forget what I'm doing halfway through.

Fun Fact: Riley apparently is a girl, check the yugioh wiki if you don't believe me.

On with the fic…

"Alright then, I draw!" Said Bella as she drew her card.

Turn 6: Yuuta/Bella: LP: 4000/3400 Hand: 0/1 Yugo/Nemo: LP: 1750/4000 Hand:1/0.

Then she examined her hand, smiling at the hand fate had dealt her. "I play the Action Spell, Give and Take! I discard a card, then draw two cards, but I can't activate the effects of the card that I discard!" She said as she sent her card to the Graveyard, then drew two new cards. Her grin broadened at her new cards.

"I play O-Oversoul, I target 1 Normal HERO in my Graveyard, then Special Summon it. So return to the Field Elemental HERO Neos!" Said Bella as her HERO reemerged from beyond the grave. "Now I Flip Summon Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab (Level 3, Insect / Effect, FIRE, 500 ATK 500 DEF)!" Said Bella, revealing the monster she had set on her previous turn. Nemo's eyes widened in surprise, realizing that he knew where this was going. "I Shuffle both my monsters back into the Deck so that I can fuse them together!" Said Bella.

"What!? How does that work?!" Demanded Yugo.

"This is the power of Contact Fusion! HERO of the Neo Space, become one with alien of flame, to unleash your new form!" Chanted Bella as her monsters disappeared into a red and yellow spiral, "Contact Fusion Summon! Come forth, Level 7, Elemental HERO Flare Neos (Level 7, Warrior / Fusion / Effect, FIRE, 2500 ATK 2000 DEF)!" From the spiral came the contact fused HERO monster.

"Next I activate the Field Spell, Neo Space!" Said Bella as she placed her Field Spell. Suddenly everything around them was surrounded in myriad of colors. It was like someone put the color spectrum in a blender. "Due to Neo Space's effect, the ATK of Flare Neos rises by 500, plus Flare Neos's effect raises his ATK by 400 for each Spell or Trap on the field, there are currently 5, boosting Flare Neos's overall ATK to 5000!" Declared Bella.

"WHAT!?" Yugo practically shrieked.

"Battle Phase! Flare Neos attacks Xtra HERO Nova Master!" Says Bella as the super powered monster obliterated Nemo's Fire HERO, causing the red stripe on his scarf to disappear, and the force of the blast knocked Nemo back. "I end my turn." Said Bella.

Nemo groaned as he got to his feet. He put a hand on the top of his deck. "Ready guys?" Asked Nemo, talking to his counterparts. They all nodded at him. "It's our turn! Draw!" Shouted all four counterparts as Nemo drew their card, with the other three mimicking his actions.

Turn 7: Yuuta/Bella: LP: 4000/3400 Hand: 0/0 Yugo/Nemo: LP: 1750/1800 Hand:1/1

Nemo looked at his new card and grinned widely. Suddenly, the lights dimmed, then there were spotlights aiming at Nemo. "Ladies and Gentlemen!" Said Nemo, trying to excite the little crowd that he had. Which worked, all eyes were on him. "The power of my monsters is that we never give up, no matter the challenge, we fight 'til the very end!" Exclaimed Nemo.

Then he revealed the card in his hand. "And now we're going to prove just that! I play the Continuous Spell, Pendulum's Exchange! This card lets me do two things, this first is that I can target a Pendulum HERO monster on my field, then place it in a vacant Pendulum Zone, which I'll do with Shadowmist." Explains Nemo. Shadowmist disappears from her original spot, and reappears in the Pendulum Zone with a large 1 under her.

"Now for my other effect, I destroy a Pendulum HERO in one of my Scales, then replace it with a Pendulum HERO in my Extra Deck. So I'll destroy Sparkman, and replace him with Clayman, causing Sparkman's effect to activate, adding Skyscraper 3: Metropolis to my hand." Says Nemo, as Clayman replaces Sparkman in the large pillar, with a large 5 under him, then Nemo adds his new card to his hand. "Now I activate Clayman's effect, destroying him and replacing him with Pendulum HERO Burstinatrix!" Says Nemo.

Clayman is destroyed, then the Fire HERO woman replaces him. "Ok girls, you ready? Swing Pendulum of Power, draw an arc of light across the sky! Pendulum Summon! Come forth, my HERO comrades!" Exclaimed Nemo, raising his hand into the sky. Then three monsters came to his field. "We have three Level 4 monsters returning from the Extra Deck people, so why not give them a hand? We have the Pendulum HEROs Blazeman, Clayman, and Sparkman!" Now Nemo had five monsters on his field. He turned when he saw clapping coming from Yugo and his counterparts, as well as from Rin and her's.

Nemo grinned, then Maro took over. "Level 4 Pendulum HERO Bubbleman tunes one of the Level 4 Pendulum HERO Blazeman!" Says Maro. "Wait, Bubbleman is a Tuner!?" Asks Yuuta in surprise. "Rise up Warrior of the Earth, make the Earth shake with your power, as you crush all of villainy! Synchro Summon, come forth, Level 8: Xtra HERO Gaia!" Chanted Maro, as he swiped a hand over his duel disk. The water attribute HERO became four green rings of energy Clayman became four bright stars. Together they formed a large black warrior with stalagmites sticking out of the ground around him.

Then control went to Ogai. "I overlay our Clayman as well as Pendulum HERO Sparkman. Born from the shadows, come forth warrior of darkness, so that you can drown your enemies in a never ending nightmare! XYZ Summon! Come forth, Rank 4: Xtra HERO Escuridao!" Chanted Ogai, as he rose his right hand into the air. The two Warriors became a yellow and an orange ball of light as they both disappeared into a black and yellow vortex, then from it came a winged warrior covered in what looked like inky black goop, standing in a ring of darkness, with its overlay units orbiting it like planets around the sun.

Control then went back to Nemo, and his opponents noticed the new orange and purple stripes on his scarf. "I activate Gaia's effect, letting me steal half of the ATK points of one of your monsters until the end of the turn." Says Nemo.

Gaia stomped the ground, causing a tremor that struck Baxai, reducing its ATK to 1400 and raising Gaia's to 3700. "Next, due to Escuridao's effect, I can detach an overlay unit, then send up to two HERO monsters from my deck to the graveyard, I send one unit to the graveyard, then I send Pendulum HERO Avian to the Graveyard, then, Escuridao gains 200 ATK for each monster in my Graveyard, and with three there now, he gains 600." Said Nemo as Escuridao ATK rose to 3300.

"Now, I activate the Field Spell, Skyscraper 3: Metropolis " Said Nemo, activating his Field Spell, just like before, the field altered to match the Field Spell, but Neos Space and Crossover were both still in effect, so everything looked more than a little wacky. "Time to battle! Gaia attacks Baxia!" Orders Nemo as his Earth HERO charges at the Light Wyrm. Yuuta begins running for an Action Spell, as does Nemo, but Yuuta isn't fast enough and his monster is destroyed, dealing heavy damage to him. "Next Escuridao attacks Yazi!" Says Nemo as his Dark HERO charges at the Dark Wyrm.

Then Yuuta finds an Action Spell. "I activate the Action Spell, Evasion! Negating your attack!" Says Yuuta, placing his card on the disk.

"Action Spell! No Action! I negate your Spell!" Says Nemo, using his own Spell, Yazi is then destroyed, dealing more damage.

"I activate Yazi's effect, letting me Special Summon a Yang Zing from my Deck in DEF mode!" Says Yuuta.

"Yugo!" Shouts Nemo.

"On it! Clear Wing negates your effect, but since your monster is already destroyed, Clear Wing doesn't get the ATK boost." Says Yugo.

"Now Absolute Zero attacks you directly!" Says Nemo as his Water HERO wipes out the rest of Yuuta's LP.

"Yuuta!" Exclaims Bella.

"You go, Yugo!" Says Nemo.

"Got it, I draw!" Says Yugo.

Turn 8: Yuuta/Bella: LP: 0/3400 Hand: 0/0 Yugo/Nemo: LP: 1750/1800 Hand:2/0

Yugo looks at his hand, but doesn't see anything useful. "I activate Starving Wing's to gain your monster's ATK points, then I use Dark Wing's effect, detaching the other overlay unit to steal half of your monsters ATK points!" Sayd Yugo as the ATKs of his monsters raise to 7700 and 5000 while Flare Neos is reduced to 2500 ATK. Yugo then steers Clear Wing so that they can search for Action Spells. "Battle Phase! Starving Wing attacks Flare Neos!" Instructs Yugo as his dragon flew towards the Fire HERO.

Bella spots an Action Card. With a running jump she manages to grab it. "Action Magic! Evasion! Your attack is negated!" Says Bella as her monster avoids the attack. Yugo snags an Action Card and starts flying towards Bella. He then stands up and jumps off of his dragon. There are a few gasps, but then Dark Wing catches him and he begins flying that dragon. "Clear Wing, attack Flare Neos!" Instructs Yugo.

"What? Both out monsters have the same ATK, they'll both be destroyed." Says Bella.

"No they won't 'cause I play the Action Spell High Dive, boosting the ATK of Clear Wing to 3500!" Says Yugo.

Bella quickly searches and finds another Action Spell. "I activate the Action Spell Encore! This lets me use an Action Spell in my Graveyard, so I'll reuse Miracle!" Says Bella, preventing her monster's destruction and halving the Damage she would've taken. Yugo then switches back to Clear Wing.

"Dark Wing, destroy Flare Neos!" Shouts Yugo. The Dark Dragon roars as it charges at Flare Neos. Bella attempts to find a third Action Spell, but it appears that she's out of luck as Dark Wing destroys her monster, blasting her monster and sending her to the ground near where Yuuta was. "I end my turn." Says Yugo.

Everyone stares at Bella, who isn't moving. "Bella? Are you alright?" Asks Nemo in concern. Suddenly a strange dark aura starts emitting from Bella as she rises to her feet. A wide, scary smile, reminiscent of Yuri's old personality, appears on her face.

"Never better." She says, only now her voice is slight distorted and much more menacing.

"Oh no." Groaned Yuuta.

"What? What is it?" Asks Yugo worriedly.

"Bella doesn't have counterparts like you, but she does have a second personality, and a nasty one at that, she calls herself Nanashi." Explains Yuuta.

"My turn, I draw!" Cackles Nanashi.

Turn 8: Yuuta/Nanashi: LP: 0/400 Hand: 0/1 Yugo/Nemo: LP: 1750/1800 Hand:2/0.

Nanashi looks at her hand. "I play the Spell Card, Starting Over, I send all cards on my field and hand to the Graveyard, and I can't activate any of their effect, then I draw 6 cards." Says Nanashi. She sends the cards on her field to the Graveyard, then draws her cards. She looks at her new hand. "Since I control no monsters, I can Special Summon Evil HERO Infernal Prodigy (Level 2, Fiend / Effect, DARK, 300 ATK 600 DEF)." Explains Nanashi as she Special Summons her new monster.

"Evil HERO? Isn't that kind of contradicting?" Asks Yugo, but Nemo ignores him as he grits his teeth at the sight of the evil archetype.

"Next, if my opponent controls a monster, I can Normal Summon this card with only one tribute, so I Summon Evil HERO Malicious Edge (Level 7, Fiend / Effect, DARK, 2600 ATK 1800 DEF)." Says Nanashi as her monster disappears and is replaced by a new one. "And since Infernal Prodigy was used for a tribute this turn, I draw a card." Says Nanashi as she drew a new card.

"Next, I play Dark Fusion, fusing my Elemental HERO Avian (Level 3, Warrior, WIND, 1000 ATK 1000 DEF) with my Elemental HERO Burstinatrix (Level 3, Warrior, FIRE, 1200 ATK 800 DEF)" Says Bella as her two monsters appear and then disappear into a red and green spiral that was spitting off black lightning. "HEROs of good, become corrupted as you violently merge together, so that you can unleash a new terror!" Chants Nanashi, "Dark Fusion Summon! Rise from the shadows Level 6 Evil HERO Inferno Wing (Level 6, Warrior / Fusion / Effect, FIRE, 2100 ATK 1200 DEF)!"

Everyone stared at the new monster. "Now I play the Equip Spell Fusion Weapon, and equip it to Inferno Wing, boosting her ATK by 1500!" Said Nanashi as the ATK of her monster rises to 3600. "Battle Phase! Evil HERO Inferno Wing attack Clear Wing Synchro Dragon and finish this pathetic boy off!" Orders Nanashi. Inferno Wing blasts Yugo's Dragon, hurting him, but not enough to defeat him.

"Nice try you creep, but that isn't going to work." Said Yugo.

A scary sadistic smile formed on Nanashi's face. "Oh no?" She asked, "Well sorry to burst your bubble boy, but when Inferno Wing destroys an opponent's monster by battle, the opponent takes damage equal to their monster's ATK points!" Cackles Nanashi.

"WHAT!?" Exclaims Yugo in fear. Next thing he knows, Inferno Wing is right in front of him, she pulls her arms back, then blasts Yugo in the face with fire.

"Yugo!" Shouts Nemo and Rin. Yugo collapses to the ground unconscious while Nanashi manically begins to cackle.

Then she grabs another card in her hand. "Next I play Dark Calling, letting me banish Malicious Edge and Inferno Wing so that I can fuse them together, HEROs of Evil become one in order to create a beast that will destroy any and everything!" Chants Nanashi as her monsters disappear into a purple and red spiral with black lightning shooting out of it, "Dark Fusion Summon! Rise from the shadows Level 8 Evil HERO Malicious Fiend (Level 8, Fiend / Fusion / Effect, FIRE, 3500 ATK 2100 DEF)! I end my turn!" Cackles Nanashi.

Nemo stares at his fallen friend. Then his head whips around to look around at the laughing Nanashi. Nanashi pauses her laughing, intrigued at the expression on Nemo's face. "So…" Says Nemo with clenched shaking fists as he stares at the ground, "you think you're strong? That you're scary?"

Nanashi smiles sadistically. "I try." She says.

"Well," Says Nemo as his head whips up to look at her, his expression feral, and his eyes dilated to draconic slits, suddenly his hair stood up as a large gust of wind started blowing around him, "You ain't seen nothing yet!" Roars Nemo as he draws his card, causing the wind to intensify, "It's my turn!

Turn 9: Nanashi: LP: 400 Hand: 0 Nemo: LP:1800 Hand:1.

Nemo looks at the card he drew. "Thank you Yugo." Thinks Nemo. "

Nemo!" Shouts Maro. Nemo looks at his counterpart.

They share a nod of understanding, allowing him to take over. "I play the Spell Card, Miraculous Synchro of Pendulums!" Shouts Maro as he puts the chard on his disk.

"Miraculous Synchro!?" Exclaims the Ray counterparts.

"I Special Summon Pendulum HERO monsters from my Graveyard or Extra Deck that match requirements of a HERO Synchro monster in my Extra Deck, then I banish them to Synchro Summon that monster!" Says Maro. Then Bubbleman and Sparkman appear, then become four rings and four stars of energy. "Come forth, HERO who was trained by the Synchro Dragon himself, with clear blades that vanquish villainy at the speed of light!" Chants Maro swiping a hand over his duel disk, "Miracle Synchro Summon! Rise Level 8, Dragon HERO Clear Wing (Level 8, Warrior / Synchro / Effect, WIND, 3000 ATK, 2500 DEF)!"

The white HERO appeared causing the wind to reach maximum ferocity as Nemo regained control now with a green strip on his scarf. He looked like someone had converted Yugo's dragon into armor and had given it to the HERO monster in front of them, attached on his right wrist and left elbow were blades that matched Clear Wing's wings, and unlike most HERO's who covered their eyes with a mask or visor, Clear Wing's were covered by a pair of red rimmed, orange lensed goggles. ...Waaitt. "Battle Phase!" Roared Nemo, "Clear Wing, attack Nanashi's monster and end this duel!" Clear Wing then flew towards the opponents monster.

"Hah! You must be a fool! Your monster is weaker, you'll only hurt yourself!" Cackles Nanashi.

"Now the effect of my Field Spell activates, because I'm attacking a monster whose ATK is higher, Clear Wing's ATK is raised by 1000!" Shouted Nemo.

Nanashi's eyes widened. "WHAT!?" She exclaimed in a way that was similar to Yugo right before he was defeated.

"Clear Wing! End this with Spiral Wind Blade Strike!" Shouted Nemo as his Dragon HERO Smashed Nanashi's monster, ending the duel.

"Noo!" Screamed Nanashi as she was launched backwards. The dark aura around her faded as Bella's mind began to resurface.

As the duel field and the monsters faded, Nemo could quickly feel his strength fade. He weakly looked over at his friends. "Help… Yugo." Wheezed Nemo as his eyes rolled back and he collapsed on the ground. There was a beat of silence before al chaos broke loose.

Well… that certainly could have gone better, I for one believe that a lot of you are going to end up with more questions than answers, more definitely more than a few predictions. Speaking of ending, I managed to finish this duel faster than I thought I would, though this chapter did end up a little on the longer side than most of mine do, so hooray! And to answer the endless supply of emails that have been telling me to make a Yuya X Zuzu love story. Ok, ok! I'll get to that! Eventually, because there are still a few things I need to get done, two of which being Apple and Predator Shipping. That's all I need to talk about so I'm going to go, so until next time fic fans, Nemon0416 is outta here!
