Jaden's Summer Break 1

Writer's notes: After revising my story, I have decided to change Hokage's identity to a student of Kagemaru. Please be noted that I am following the anime cards and effects most of the time.

Friday:

"Molten Destruction!" Natsumi revealed the card she had drawn.

"Cool!"

"With 2900 ATK points, Flame Wingman is out!"

"That's my favorite card!" Jaden protested while his Life Points fell to 3500.

"Draw!" Jaden glanced at his hand and observed the field.

A childish yet joyful ringtone sounded.

"Ah! It's my handphone! Daddy is calling! Sorry Jaden! I've to go!" Natsumi rattled off in a hurry.

"Aw." Jaden was disappointed that the duel could not be finished.

"It's ok, how about we meet next week at the hotel my daddy and I are staying instead?"

"Sounds great! See ya!"

Tuesday:

Jaden was soon invited into the luxurious hotel room once he pressed the doorbell. The presidential suite is big enough for a family to live in.

"Ah you must Jaden Yuki right?" A mature voice sounded as Natsumi showed Jaden the way in.

Jaden saw a tall middle aged man walked out of the corner and greeted him.

"I'm Mr. Kasai, Natsumi's guardian!" The man in a red suit and grey pants said.

"Hi, nice to meet you!"

"I heard a lot from Natsumi about you, especially your dueling skills!"

"Haha, dueling is like my favorite hobby!" Jaden stated excitedly seemingly looking for a game of Duel Monsters.

"Only hobby!" Natsumi teased Jaden.

"Sorry for troubling you to bring Natsumi around. I'm on a business trip you see for my company." Mr. Kasai laughed. "But seems I got the time now, let's check your dueling skills out, Jaden!"

"Alright! Get your game on!" Both person set up their deck at the suite's dining table with a mini holographic device!

"I've never seen this machine before!" Jaden was astonished.

"It's a new one our company bought in for tabletop duels!"

"I shall go first!" Jaden drew a card.

"I've heard how you turn games around in one turn."

"Thank you for the compliment! Usually it's me who does it according to Natsumi!"

"Come one play your cards!"

"If you insist, I fuse Elemental Hero Clayman and Sparkman to summon Elemental Hero Thunder Giant in attack mode!" A mini Thunder Giant appeared on the tabletop.

"A monster with 2400 ATK points on the first turn! Interesting!"

"I throw down one card and end my turn!"

"My turn! I Summon Charcoal Inpachi in attack mode!" Mr. Kasai announced.

"Why summon a monster with 100 ATK and 2100 DEF in attack mode?" Natsumi questioned.

"I activate The League of Uniform Nomenclature which allows me to Select 1 face-up Level 2 or lower Normal Monster on my side of the field and Special Summon from my Deck to my side of the field as many cards as possible with the same name as the selected monster!"

"What a cool card!" Jaden was being himself once again.

"I Special Summon 2 more Charcoal Inpachi in ATK mode!" Two more burnt wooden dummy sat on the field.

"I remember this!" Natsumi exclaimed.

"I now use Shield & Sword to switch the original ATK and DEF of all face-up monsters on the field until the end of this turn!" Mr. Kasai said in clever manner while pushing up his glasses.

"It's three monsters with 2100 ATK points against one with 1500 ATK points now!" Natsumi was shocked by the turn of events.

"Now I activate one more Spell! Chthonian Alliance which increases the ATK of the equipped monster by 800 points for each other face-up monster on the field with the same name as the equipped monster!"

"Oh no! It is the One Turn Kill move! Watch out, Jaden!" Natsumi cried.

"I remember how Chazz used it to knock Bastion's monsters out!" Jaden had a flashback of the match between Chazz and Bastion when Dr. Crowler them pitted them against each other for Chazz's place in Obelisk Blue!

"With my Inpachis at 3700 ATK points, I attack!" Mr. Kasai declared and immediately the Inpachis became full of energy seemingly shedding the layers of their char away and jumped over to Jaden's side of the field to end the game under the command of their master!

Just as the Inpachis were about to reach Thunder Giant, Jaden activated his Trap Card, "Negate Attack to stop your attacks and end your Battle Phrase!"

"What!" Mr Kasai was devastated to hear what Trap Card Jaden had set because by ending his turn the Inpachis' ATK fell to 900!

"Now it's my turn! I shall Fusion Summon Elemental Hero Wildedge in attack mode!" Jaden shouted confidently.

"No!" Mr. Kasai pulled his hair comically.

"Using his super cool effect that allows him to attack every of your monsters, Wildedge use Infinity Edge Slicer to end the match!" With three slashes from the blade behind his back, the tanned and half amored warrior brought Jaden's opponent's Life Point to 0!

"Wow! Jaden you really got the skills!" Mr Kasai praised as his Inpachis shattered on the field.

"Yeah! That's game!" Jaden raised his arms in victory.

"I wonder if you would like to enter the Industrial Illusion Amateur Invitational next week."

"What? An Invitational from Industrial Illusion? You're working for Pegasus?"

"Yes, I'm here specially to gather the best rookies in this Invitational! And I hope you can be there!"

"I would be there too!" Natsumi interrupted.

"I guess I've no reason to say no to dueling!"
