Episode 9: What it takes to be a celebrity.

A/N this takes so long... aahhhhhh

"Trey Arclight still in a coma?"

"The Red Carpet Party held today: details"

That was the latest news Quattro saw on his phone.

He wondered what was going to happen that night.

[5:30 pm, the same day]

"Trey, are you sure you want to enter that way?"

"Yes, I'm sure Quinton."

"Are you gonna get caught, hanging around there?"

"Most likely. I'll just teleport if I'm in hot water."

[6:30 pm]

"Trey Arclight still in a coma"

"Red Carpet Party kicking off in less than an hour" it said on Yuma's phone for the news.

"He's still in a coma?" Asked Yuma.

"Well, it doesn't matter anyway, does it?" Asked Bronk.

"I know... but he's been out for so long... will he wake up?" Asked Yuma.

"Well let's go! We don't want to be late!" Said Flip.

"Yeah, let's go!"

[7:15 pm]

"Oh, look!"

"He may be here!"

Tons of cameras took photos of Quattro, Quinton and Vetrix. There were cameras flying everywhere, trying to see where they were.

"Where's Trey?" Asked a photographer.

"Still catching sleep. Well, at least when we left." Replied Vetrix.

[On the other side of the road]

"Hey Yuma!"

"Trey?" Asked Yuma.

"I'm finally up!"

"What happened to your voice?" Asked Flip.

"Some of my vocal cords were damaged, for a while." Replied Trey, in a dark voice.

"We've got no time to lose! Let's go!" Said Yuma.

'Something's off.' Thought Astral. 'He's not normally this weak.'

[About 15 minutes later]

"Oh, there he is!"

"Quickly! Before everyone sees!"

"It's Trey!"

Tons of paparazzi cameras shone against Yuma and Trey.

People went crazy that he was back, but Trey took no notice.

"So, you feel ok?" Yuma asked.

"A little tired..." Trey said, as he yawned.

"It's time to open the doors!"

"Quickly, people are about to go inside!"

The presenter started to cut the red ribbon, and opened the door.

"Yuma, you feeling excited?" Asked Trey.

"Yeah, I am!" Replied Yuma.

The palace was massive. It had 3 floors, one with a DJ and a massive dance floor.

The middle floor was filled with restaurants, and the ground floor had statues, a stage, a massive chocolate fountain and a selection of food.

"Woah, Yuma." Said Bronk. "Look at that chocolate fountain!"

"That's so cool!" Said Yuma, eager to try it.

"THIS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE TO USE UNTIL 8.30 PM. THANK YOU" the sign said on the chocolate fountain, with a cover around it.

"Aww... that's so cute." Said Tori, in awe of the mini sandwiches on the massive table covering half of the outside rim of the ground floor.

"Yeah, let's try them!" Said Flip.

"Tuck in guys!" Said Caswell, happily.

"Yuma, it says wait until 8:30 pm." Said someone.

"Huh? Who's there?" Asked Yuma.

"These stairs are pretty cute, I like sitting on them."

Yuma looked up to see Trey sitting on the stairs.

"But... who is Trey?" Asked Yuma.

"I'm the real Trey!" Said the one standing next to Yuma.

"Why's your voice off then?" Asked the one sitting on the stairs.

'What is this...' thought Yuma.

"Prove it in a duel!" Said the Trey on the stairs, throwing a duel tag at the one next to Yuma.

{A/N I'm not sure exactly what it's called, but in episode 42 / where Quattro and Trey threw this red line at Yuma and Kite / Kaito, that's what I'm calling a duel tag, the red line. You can't move until you accept to duel due to it.}

"You're on!" Said the Trey next to Yuma.

By seeing their duel disks, Yuma knew who was who. Trey was really back!

"Let's duel!" Both of them said.

"I'll go first, I draw!" Said the Trey next to Yuma.

Suddenly everyone was watching this development. Within a minute, a duel had kicked off.

"I summon Magic Wand! Once per turn, it can reduce your life points by half!"

[ATTK 1500, LV 2]

"I activate the effect of Chronomaly Fire Phoenix in my deck!" The Trey on the stairs said.

"I can summon it from my deck to negate the damage, and reverse it instead!"

[ATTK 1650, LV 6]

"What?" The Trey next to Yuma shouted.

[LP 2000]

"Ergh... you'll pay! I set one card face down and end my turn!" Said the Trey next to Yuma, on the floor, angrily.

"I draw!" Said the Trey on the stairs.

"I summon Chronomaly Sword Wielder!"

[ATTK 1800, LV 3]

"Once per turn, this card can become a LV equivalent to another monster on the field. I choose Fire Phoenix!"

[LV 6]

"I overlay these two to summon, N06, Chronomaly Atlantis!"

[ATTK 2600]

"Then I activate its effect! Once per turn, by detaching 1 OLU, I can halve your LP! Oricaculm Gate!"

"ARGH!" The Trey next to Yuma shouted.

[LP 1000]

"Now I attack you with Atlantis!"

"I activate a trap, Half Risk! I take half the damage, and my monster is saved!" Said the Trey next to Tuma.

[LP 450]

"I activate Rank Up Magic, Chronomaly Dream Force!" Trey said.

Suddenly, the golden armour appeared on Trey once more. Everyone watched this, even the cameramen.

"I Chaos Dream Overlay Atlantis to Dream Summon Chronomaly Twin Atlantis! And I activate it's special ability! I can double its OLU once per turn!"

[ATTK 5000, OLU 4]

"I activate another ability of Twin Atlantis! It can attack a monster that was saved this turn!"

"No..." The Trey next to Yuma said quietly.

"I also activate its second effect! I can detach an OLU to double its attack each time for the remainder of OLU! What's 5000 Doubled 3 times?"

[ATTK 40000, OLU 3]

"No way!" The Trey next to Yuma said.

"Go! Double Headed Destruction!"

"ARGH!!" The Trey next to Yuma screamed as he went flying.

[LP 0]

[TREY WIN]

The imposter went flying with his mask coming off. He crashed into the chocolate mountain, breaking the cover with his skull and getting drenched in chocolate. He was a mess, covered in chocolate from head to toe.

"Was that... chocolate Atlantis?" Trey said, mockingly. "Is that the potential of Atlantis when I use Rank Up Magic Chocolate Force?" Trey added on, asking the mob.

The guests and celebrities laughed at Trey's joke at the imposter. Vetrix howled with laughter, even Tori let out a giggle and the cameramen went mad with laughter and photos.

"You'll fucking regret this!!" The imposter shouted as he ran away, with chocolate footsteps and running through the fire exit.

"Yeah, very likely." Yuma said.

"Sorry for the improper introduction." Trey said. "I've been out for 2 and a half months, and wanted to have a sneak peak of this."

"Trey, you're back!" Yuma shouted.

"Oh, and I just needed to prove who's real too." Trey replied to Yuma.

"What happened, are you ok?" Asked Astral.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Replied Trey. "Vetrix may have told you, but if I use that card for more than two minutes, I'm deep fried. It'll kill me. I don't know how I survived."

"You just went limp, you floated when it happened." Replied Yuma. "I remember the duel shutting down after it, and you were floating in the sphere. As I went to see what was happening, I checked you as medics rushed up the tower, and your heart stopped. You weren't breathing."

"That extreme?" Asked Trey.

"I preformed CPR on you, until the medics arrived, and rushed you to hospital. They said you were in intensive care, on life support, in a coma. Only 2 days ago you were declared stable." Yuma explained.

"At least I got a new shiny suit, that I'm wearing!" Said Trey, happily.

"What happened though? Did you feel anything?" Asked Astral.

"When I drew and was about to Overlay, I felt a searing pain in my stomach. My head felt like it was going to explode, and I thought I was dead. The last thing I remember seeing was the duel shutting down, the AR link shutting. I remember you coming over to me and compressing my chest, with my eyes shut. That's all." Said Trey.

"That's deep." Said Yuma.

"It's fine though. I only woke up today, saw a ton of notes that Quattro wrote, and figured out what was happening. I woke up an hour ago, and I'm still tired." Said Trey, whilst yawning.

"At least you're back!" Said Yuma happily.

"What happened after that?" Asked Trey. "After I went coma?"

"I won by default. Then, you became a celebrity instantly, and you were then publicly pronounced in a coma. There were many parties held, like the one 2 days ago to celebrate the end of the WDC.

"And then?" Trey asked.

"I remember yesterday presents were returned from the party at your house, and people reported presents at doorbells. People thought it was you." Yuma explained.

"Heh..., let's enjoy the party!" Trey replied.

"Oh no... because of the crash, the chocolate fountain won't work!" Caswell moaned.

"No way!" Said Cathy.

"Oh come on... just as it looked great. You gotta get it back, please!" Pleaded Yuma, to one of the mechanics.

"Typical Yuma." Said Astral.

"Heh... he loves food." Replied Trey.

[The Next Morning]

"Trey's Chocolate Atlantis makes a huge mess!"

"Unexpected intruder humiliated!"

"Return of Trey Arclight"

"Red Carpet Party - My perspective (Quattro)"

"3 killed in fighting incident"

Those were the top headlines of the news that Vetrix saw. However, he had other things on his mind.

"Trey's chocolate Atlantis makes a big splash"

The boy continually promised to himself. "I'll get revenge, and he'll regret that."

Trey had decided to go shopping with Quattro in the centre of Heartland City. They were celebrities, and they were very popular. (Especially Trey, I mean he just woke up.)

Quinton was helping Vetrix fill in forms for both Trey and Quattro, and finding details.

Shark had two things on his mind.

Quattro's little brother and Rio.
