by Redwallfan2000

11. Chapter 10: Alexis vs Erin

Chapter 10: Alexis vs. Erin

Disclaimer: I do not own Yugioh or Cardcaptors. Phineas and Ferb belong to Disney and will be featured as Erin's friends staying with her through out the adventure starting in this chapter. I do own Erin and her deck. Also for this chapter and the next few chapters I'd like to say this is Season 1 Jaden Yuki I'm using so he hasn't met Aster Phoenix yet.

It was still Friday evening at Duel Academy. Most of the students were sleeping in their beds, Erin herself was sleeping in Alexis's room. The Obelisk Blue was super friendly towards Erin even inviting. During the night before going to bed though, Erin had thought of a way to try to protect the Sakura Cards from getting stolen from MFWD, then again Pegasus had insured her that they wouldn't attempt to come to Duel Academy just to do that, she placed both the Shield and the Fiery Card on top of her Duel Monster Cards. This to her would ensure that they'd wouldn't take any of the two Sakura Cards she had. During the night the two Sakura Cards seemed to glow and unknown to Erin due to her sleeping begin a secret unseen transformation. Then as quick as the two cards started to glow, about one or two minutes later they stopped and settled down.

Morning came and Erin whom had never been an early riser before strangely woke first. She gets dressed in her usual outfit then goes to check her deck. She skims through it then saw something that startled her. Yeah she still had the Shield and Fiery Sakura Cards on top of her deck but she seemed to see they had transformed into Duel Monster Cards. She was confused and sat scratching her head. There were a lot of things she wasn't aware of from the Sakura Cards and she didn't know they could transform at will. She sits still shocked thinking I know I have a Duel with Alexis today but now I wish I knew when so I could get into contact with my friends.

Alexis woke next and, rose from her bed, stretched then saw Erin looking at her deck in a confused state of mind.

"Erin?" Alexis asked deciding to ask the question in a concerned tone.

Erin heard the Obelisk Blue calling her name "Yes, Alexis?"

Alexis starts to come down "Something bad happen to your deck? If so, I hope none of your cards were stolen."

Erin put her deck away except for the Shield and Firey which she kept in her pocket "My deck was fine and okay, although I just found out that it somehow had two more cards that I didn't remember it having before."

Alexis smiled "But do they help your deck and support it?"

Erin nods checking the card effects of the Shield Card and the Fiery Card "You bet."

"Then the cards are yours" Alexis told her "I mean have you taken the time to look at all the cards in your deck?"

Erin admits the answer shyly "Not really."

"Then it stands to reason that the cards are truly yours. Yeah I've often had that too when I was younger, looking at my first deck after my fifth Duel with someone, seeing a new card and thinking to myself I didn't know I had that card in my deck."

Erin smiles at Alexis's honest reply while thinking to herself If only Alexis knew my two 'new' cards are actually Duel Monster card versions of my mother's Shield and Fiery Sakura Cards.

Alexis looks at the time "We still have time before the Duel let's have some breakfast and then you'll have time to chat with your friends"

Erin agreed with Alexis's suggestion "Sure, let's. Care to contact Jaden for me, I may need to talk to Joey after breakfast."

"Sure thing" Alexis said.

The two leave Alexis's room, ate breakfast, then while Alexis prepared for her Duel seeing there was still time before the Duel to happen. Erin made her way to Ra yellow to talk to Phineas and his brother Ferb. Phineas and Ferb saw her approaching and both boys saw her looking a bit worried. Phineas turned to Ferb "Let's see what she's worried about, I hope it's not her Duel with Alexis later on today."

"We'll know soon" Ferb admitted seeing Joey making his way towards them.

Joey strangely made it before Erin "Here I am!"

He turned to Erin "So, what's the big deal? Don't tell me your going to forfeit the Duel because of you being scared now, if so I'll Duel Alexis in your place."

"I don't think she's too scared to not Duel" Phineas told him.

"Phineas is right" Erin told her three friends "I've also managed to call Mr. Pegasus."

"And I'm here too now" Pegasus said as he arrived "Erin-girl what's going on?"

Erin looks around to see if no one else was around. At once Phineas knew what was going on "Something happened to the two Sakura Cards you have?"

Erin nods "Yes."

"Were they stolen?" Joey asked "If so who?"
"They weren't stolen" Erin answered, she turned towards Pegasus as she pulled the two Sakura Cards out of her pocket and they were still in Duel Monster Card formation "But I just discovered this happened to them."

Everyone including Phineas himself gave out a gasp "My, I'll be the two Sakura Cards...Transformed? But how?"

"THAT'S THE SAME QUESTION I HAVE!" Erin shouted.

"Easy now Erin-girl" Pegasus told his student "In a case like this with two cards other than Duel monsters located on you, it's best to not draw attention."

"Sorry" Erin apologized.

"Don't be" Pegasus told her "You have every right to be shocked. Now Erin do you have any idea how this happened?"

"The only thing I can think of is that I placed the Shield and Firey Card on my deck so I could make sure they weren't going to be stolen. Then in the morning I saw them like this."

Joey scratched his head "That's weird, hey Erin, didn't your mother say that the Sakura Cards sometimes have a mind of their own?"

"They do indeed" Pegasus admitted "Eriol gave me that answer when he first made contact with me." Pegasus then got it he turned to Erin "I think I have an idea why they did this, the two Sakura Cards you have know you like to play Duel Monsters. When you placed them on top of your Duel Deck in order to protect them from being stolen, they too must've not wanted to be stolen and were willing to go even further transforming themselves into legitimate Duel Monster Cards."

"Oh" Erin said and she relaxed a bit "Thank goodness, I thought I was going to get in trouble with my mom and dad when they found out."

"I'm sure you won't" Phineas told her

Erin puts the two Sakura turn Duel Monster cards back onto her deck and heads towards Duel Academy with her three friends and Pegasus following her. Amazingly the group had found the Duel field first and Erin found herself waiting for Alexis to show up. There was still time left about thirty minutes. While waiting, Erin found herself staring at a very tall boy with dark blue hair wearing an Obelisk Blue uniform. Almost immediately she knew this boy was tough. Something told her if she dueled him first then he'd surely crush her and without mercy. Alexis arrived next and saw the boy too. She smiled walking over to Erin and the boy. "Hey Erin!"

"Alexis!" Erin said waving to her.

The dark blue haired boy heard Alexis calling Erin's name and turned towards the two girls. Alexis turns towards him "Erin, this is Zane Truesdale, third year Obelisk Blue student. The best of the Academy."

Zane approached them then looked at Erin "Well, now I see the rumors of a visitor going to duel Alexis today is true."

Erin nods as Zane turned his attention towards her "Should be interesting to see what skills you have Erin. For one being taught by Mr. Pegasus himself you must have a lot that you know about."

"I'm still working on others" Erin told him bowing to him respectfully.

"NEVER BOW TO ANYONE!" Joey shouted from the stands in what he thought was words of encouragement "Let me remind you Erin, Obelisk Blues are supposed to be the elites! Don't bow to them!"

"What's up with him?" Zane asked Alexis.

"That's Joey Wheeler" Alexis told Zane.

Erin sighs out Zane's question "And he's still sour at having to sleep at Slifer Red for the week."

Soon every student arrived taking the stands. This was followed by Chancellor Sheppard and Dr. Crowler whom sat with Pegasus in the special viewing booth. Dr. Crowler steps forward to the microphone "Ladies and Gentlemen! We are here to start off the official week of Pegasus's student Erin and her friends's visit to Duel Academy. They are here to Duel any student that wants to Duel them. Today though we have our first ever Duel we'll be giving to Erin Syaoran. Today's Duel is between our very own Alexis Rhodes!"

Alexis steps out to the far end of the Duel arena opposite side of Erin and Duel Academy goes wild seeing Alexis especially most of the Obelisk Blue boys.

Phineas turned to Ferb and Joey muttering to them "I think we all see who Duel Academy favors in this match up."

Joey formed a fist then a smile appeared on his face "Just you wait Phineas when Erin defeats Alexis!"

Phineas giggled "That'll shock them for sure."

Jaden alongside a light blue haired boy was with them. Joey waves to Jaden "Hey Jaden!"

"Hey Joey! You remember Syrus Truesdale right?"

"You bet I do!" Joey said then he mutters the rest "Just can't believe they put his brother Zane in Obelisk Blue and then have him be in Slifer Red...Some high tech system they have here to place."

Crowler then speaks "Dueling Alexis is Pegasus's student Erin Syaoran!"

Erin steps onto the Duel field looking at Alexis. Her heart pounded nervously having thousands of eyes watching her but she was willing to give everyone's advice from last night a try. At seeing Erin the students all began speaking questions "That's Pegasus's student? I thought she'd be older." "Why would Pegasus teach a nine-year old girl how to Duel?" It was a comment coming from a black haired boy wearing a black outfit that set Joey's nerves off "I don't care if she's nine years old! Alexis will crush her easily!"

Joey made a fist glaring at the black haired boy "You have some nerve! Erin's beaten incredibly tough Duelist like Mai Valentine! So far she's only lost to Pegasus but that Duel...She knew she was going to lose but it was more of a Duel so Pegasus could tell where he needed to start teaching her and what steps they could avoid due to her knowing."

"Yeah Chazz!" Jaden joined in with Joey "Give Erin some credit!"

The Slifer Red then shouted words of encouragement to Erin "ERIN, YOUR FRIENDS AND I ARE RIGHT BEHIND YOU. PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE COMMENTS!"

Hearing Jaden speak like this fired Erin up even more she waves towards as if giving him her thanks. He waved back.

Chancellor Sheppard chuckled "That Jaden always has a way of firing new Duelists up. It's quite a remarkable trait to have."

"I must agree" Pegasus admitted.

With the introductions out of the way Crowler then spoke "So if all Duelist are ready, let the Duel Begin!"

Alexis and Erin activated their Duel Disks and drew their first five cards and shouted "DUEL!"

Alexis's Life Points: 4000

Erin's Life Points: 4000

"I'll start things off!" Alexis told Erin.

Erin allows her to. Alexis checks her hand "I'll summon Etoile Cyber in attack mode!"

Etiole Cyber appeared on the field ATK: 1200

"Next," Alexis spoke "I set one card face down and end my turn."

I remembered when I played a monster with 1200 attack points in my first ever Duel Erin thought And I got a cruel awakening why not to...However unlike me Alexis has placed one card face down so she's obviously prepared for something. So I have to try something.

Erin then spoke "It's my move, I draw!"

Erin drew her card. She checks her hand then spoke "I summon my UFO Turtle, in attack mode!"

UFO Turtle appears on the field ATK: 1400

"And now Battle!" Erin announces "UFO Turtle, attack Etoile Cyber!"

UFO Turtle began to build it's attack up. Alexis was ready "Not so fast, Erin, I activate my Trap Card, Doble Passe!"

Alexis had activated her Trap Card "This trap card turns your attack to a Direct Attack on me!"

Erin blinked knowing Alexis had planned something but didn't know why one would like to take a Direct Attack.

Instead of Etoile Cyber being attacked UFO Turtle slams into Alexis and Alexis's Life Points drop

Alexis's Life Points: 2600

Alexis turned her attention to Erin "There's more to Double Posel! After your attack is changed to a Direct Attack on me, it allows my Etiole Cyber to attack you Directly in return."

"Oh great..." Erin muttered seeing Etoile Cyber Cyber spin around coming at her.

"Oh it gets even better" Alexis told Erin "At least for me. You see when Etoile Cyber attacks someone directly she gains 500 more attack points during the Battle Phase."

Erin watches as Etiole Cyber's attack rose 1200-1700 then once Etoile Cyber came close to Erin, she kicks Erin in the chest.

Erin backs away as her Life Points dropped. Erin's Life Points: 2300

"They traded blows..." Joey said blinking.

"Only Alexis's blow was more effective" Phineas agreed.

"But not by much" Ferb told his brother "only by three hundred."

Erin checks her hand "I'll set one Card Face down, and it ends my turn!"

Alexis smiled "Then it's my move, I draw!"
Alexis drew a card "Now I'll be summoning my Blade Skater!"

Blade Skater appears on the field ATK: 1400

Erin watches as Alexis then spoke "Obviously I know UFO Turtle when destroyed by battle allows you to summon another Fire Attribute Monster with 1500 attack points or below onto the field again. So attacking it with Blade Skater would get me no where especially when you can bring out another Fire Monster that'll be stronger than Etiole Cyber...However, I activate the Spell Card Polymerization! I'll use it to fuse my Etoile Cyber and Blade Skater together in order to Fusion Summon, Cyber Blader!"

Cyber Blader appears on the field ATK: 2100

"Now" Alexis told Erin "It's my turn to battle! Cyber Blader attack UFO Turtle! Blade Skate Slash!"

Like Etiole Cyber Alexis's monster spins around but this time on skates, then once at UFO Turtle slashes out with her skate...However before this could happen, Erin spoke "I activate my Continuous Trap Card: Backfire!"

Alexis watches in amazement that Erin had that card in her deck. This meant however only one thing, Erin's deck was full of Fire Attribute Monsters. Erin then explained "While my Backfire Trap Card can't protect me from your attack it does deliver some payback! When a Fire Attribute Monster on my side of the field is destroyed in battle or by card effect and sent to the Graveyard, this Card will then deliver 500 points of damage to my opponent!"

Cyber Blader's attack strikes UFO Turtle, it roars and then explodes into pieces. Erin's Life Points take another hit Erin's Life Points: 1600

Erin then spoke "Not only does Backfire activate but I'll certainly activate my UFO Turtle's special ability to bring out one Fire Attribute Monster from my deck with 1500 attack points or below. So come out Elemental Hero Burstintrix!"

Out of U.F.O Turtle's ashes came out Elemental Hero Burstinitrix ATK: 1200

Jaden chuckles "She has E-heros too!"

Joey knew what Erin had in mind "Clever plan Erin!"

Erin smiled hearing him out. Then her Backfire Trap Card activated, Alexis watches as a stream of steady fire erupted from Erin's Backfire Trap Card and strikes Alexis burning away at Alexis's Life Points a bit. Alexis's Life Points: 2100

Alexis actually smiled, this girl was fun to Duel against, keeping her ground against her. It was exactly the type of Duel Alexis was looking forward to a Duel where both could damage each other. Erin was smiling back happy to Duel against Alexis. Alexis then spoke "With that I end my turn."

"It's my move" Erin announces, "I draw!"

She drew and checked it out, she had drawn the Shield card. She then spoke "I activate my own Spell Card, Polymerization!"

"You have one too?" Alexis asked.

Erin nods "You bet! And I'm going to use it to fuse my Elemental HERO Avion in my hand and the Elemental Hero Burstinitrix on my field, in order to Fusion Summon-"

"DON'T DO FLAMEWINGMAN!" Jaden warned remembering his own Duel against Alexis.

"Flamewingman?" Erin asked "What's that...Anyway I fusion Summon Elemental Hero Phoenix Enforcer!"
Elemental Hero Phoenix Enforcer appeared on the field ATK: 2100

"Hugh?" Jaden asked "What happened to Flamewingman?"
"Yeah" Syrus said confused "I'm confused too!"

Phineas explained for Bastion "For Elemental Hero Burstintrix and Elemental Hero Avion there are at least two known Fusions one can use. Usually it depends on the selection, since Erin's deck is based out of Fire Attribute Monsters, she choose Phoenix Enforcer. Which I think is the better fusion."

"So I could fuse my own Avion and Burstitrix together to form that?" Jaden asked Phineas "I never knew that!"

Hearing this Chazz collapses onto the ground "How could I have ever lost to you?"

"Now" Erin told Alexis "We battle! Phoenix Enforcer attack Cyber Blader!"

Phoenix Enforcer came charging at Alexis whom spoke "Don't be suicidal Erin! Both monsters have the same attack points!"

"Same attack points yes" Erin admitted "But Phoenix Enforcer comes with his own special ability in this, he can't be destroyed in battle!"

"WHAT?" Alexis asked then she held back a silent grin thinking Just like Jaden when he Dueled me.

Both Cyber Blader and Phoenix Enforcer clashed against each other and there seemed to be an explosion but when the explosion ended both monsters were still standing.

"What trickery is this?" Joey asked.

Even Erin was shocked. Alexis explained "Cyber Blader's effect changes depending on how many monsters my opponent has on the field. You have one monster which means her effect for now is this, just like Phoenix Enforcer she can't be destroyed in battle at least with one attack. Nice try though."

Erin smiled "Then I'll set one Card Face down and it ends my turn."

"It's my turn" Alexis announced "I draw!"

She drew her card "I'll equip my Cyber Blader with the Equip Spell Card: Fusion Weapon! It'll give my Fusion monster 1500 more attack points.

Cyber Blader seemed to hold a gun weapon and it's attack points shot up 2100-3600.

"Now Battle!" Alexis shouted "Even though I can't destroy Phoenix Enforcer by battle, I can still damage your Life Points good enough to have you down to 100 Life Points left! Cyber Blader attack Phoenix Enforcer!"

Cyber Blader took aim and fired but Erin was ready for it "Not so fast! I activate my brand new Trap Card: SHIELD!"

A black barrier appeared around Phoenix Enforcer which repealed the entire blast with ease allowing Erin to explain "With Shield up, I can Negate one of my opponent's attacks, or any card effect that'll cause destruction or Life Point damage. Then after I've activated it unlike other Trap Cards, I can place this card face-down again so I can use it again next turn!"

Alexis blinked never knowing of a card that can do that. However she smiles "Impressive! Your hanging in there against me thanks to that new Trap Card of yours. With that I end my turn!"

In the booth Chancellor Sheppard, Dr. Crowler and Pegasus were watching the intense Duel.

"This is incredible Mr. Pegasus!" Chancellor Sheppard said "Erin's able to go toe-to-toe with our very own Alexis Rouges."

Dr. Crowler agreed "It's not easy to be able to go toe-to-toe with an Obelisk Blue. Maybe one day Erin could enroll here."

"I doubt she'd want to relearn everything about Duel Monsters by the time Pegasus is done teaching her" Chancellor Sheppard told Crowler "But I'd like to see the day she'd be here."

"She'd be an Obelisk Blue for sure" Crowler admitted "Then again most girls that arrive here immediately are Obelisk Blues.

Chancellor Sheppard turned to Pegasus asking the man "Wasn't the Shield card a Sakura Card?"
"It was" Pegasus admitted "That's why Erin called me earlier, it seems her two Sakura Cards decided to transform themselves into Duel Monster Cards after she placed them on top of them so that they couldn't be stolen."

"A good idea if you ask me" Dr. Crowler admitted "But man, that Shield is going to be hard for Alexis to defeat Erin though."
"It's only good for one attack, or card effect though" Chancellor Sheppard said.

In the stands the Duel Academy students were surprised Erin was still standing after five turns had passed between her and Alexis.

"Incredible" A Ra Yellow spoke "That nine year old girl is able to stand up to an Obelisk Blue."

"Doesn't matter!" an Obelisk Blue announced "Alexis still has 500 more Life Points than Erin does! Plus she has a monster with a huge attack boost!"

"Keep talking like you know the outcome!" Joey shot at the Obelisk Blue.

"I will thank you!" The Obelisk Blue told Joey.

It was now Erin's turn and she spoke "It's my turn, I draw!"
Erin drew her card "First I'll summon my Volcanic Slicer to the field in Defense mode!"

Volcanic Slicer appears on the field in defense mode DEF: 1200

"When two monsters are on my opponent's field Cyber Blader's attack doubles."

"That ain't good!" Joey announces seeing the attack for Cyber Blader double 3600-7200

Erin wasn't phased "I'll activate Volcanic Slicer's effect! Once per turn I can have it burn away five hundred of your Life Points! However if I attack with it and I can't when it's in defense mode this is a good trade off. Go Volcanic Slicer Molten Blast!"

Volcanic Slicer gathered in a huge molten fireball and shot it at Alexis. Alexis took the attack head on and it rushed over her. Alexis braces herself taking the fireball and her Life Points dropped Alexix's Life Points: 1600

"Were about even now" Erin chuckled "I'll then enter my Main Phase II and set my Elemental Hero Phoenix Enforcer in defense mode."

Phoneix Enforcer switched into defense mode DEF: 1200

"Then" Erin spoke " I'll end my turn!"

"It's my turn!" Alexis announced "I draw!"

Alexis drew her card and checked her hand, she managed to gain Machine Angel Ritual card but lacked one monster for the strongest Ritual monster: Cyber Angel Dakini which she had in her hand as she didn't want to use Cyber Blader as a sacrifice. She had to buy more time and checked the field, her Cyber Blader equipped with Fusion Weapon was powerful but she was sure Erin's Shield Trap Card would negate any attack so she spoke "Since your Face-down Cards is Shield. I'll summon my Cyber Tutu in attack mode. Cyber Tutu appeared on the field ATK: 1000

Alexis smiles "Now Battle!"

Erin heard this as Alexis points "First we'll try Cyber Blader's attack on Volcanic Slicer!"

Erin wouldn't let the huge attack pass "I activate my Shield Trap Card again to negate your attack!"

A shield countered Cyber Blader's attack but this is what Alexis wanted "Then Cyber Tuto will attack and since your monsters have more attack points than she does, she can launch a direct attack on you!"

Erin watches as Cyber Tuto came at her, bypassed her monsters and kicked her in the face. Erin steps back and fell onto her butt as her Life Points fell Erin's Life Points: 600

"With that" Alexis spoke confident she could win this "I end my turn."

Erin stands up "Right, it's my move, I draw!"

She drew her card "I'll switch Phoenix Enforcer into attack mode as well as Volcanic Slicer!"
Both of her monster switched into attack mode 1800, 2100

"Next" Erin spoke "I activate Volcanic Slicer's ability to burn up five hundred of your Life Points! Molten Blast!"

Volcanic Slicer breathes out a fireball at Alexis and it burns away 500 of her Life Points. Alexis's Life Points: 1100

Alexis frowns "It'll take more than that to defeat me!"

"I know that" Erin said "Which is why I summon Flamevell Guard Tuner Monster!"

A Flamvell Monster appears on Erin's side of the field ATK: 100

"Tuner?" Alexis asked as none of the classes she took so far ever taught her any thing about Synchro Summons "Did you just say Tuner?"

"I certainly did!" Erin told Alexis "And now I'm going to show Duel Academy a new way of summoning...It's called Synchro Summoning!"

"Synchro Summon?" Alexis asked as this was a term she hadn't been aware of at least until now.

"Watch and learn!" Erin said smiling "I'm going to have my level 1 Flamevell Guard to my Level 4 Volcanic Slicer in order to Syncrho Summon Ally of Justice Catastor!

Flamevell Guard split into one huge ring while Volcanic Slicer went right through it being scanned and soon Ally of Justice Catastor appeared on the field in a mighty flash of white light ATK: 2100.

Jaden's Theme plays

Erin smiled "Now I have everything I need to turn the tide of this Duel! Probably not defeat you this turn."

"I don't think so!" Alexis warned Erin "My Cyber Blader's attack points are still 7200 hundred, your monsters still have 2100 attack points each! My monster is stronger and can't be defeated by them."

Erin smiled "There is a reason why Catastor's in my deck when he's not a Fire or Wind Attribute Monster Alexis. And he's going to help me turn this tide! Rather than argue with you about it, let me end this Duel."

Erin smiled "I activate the Continuous Spell Card Fiery Clow Spirit!"

Erin's second Sakura Card turned Duel card makes it's appearance in Erin's spell and Trap Card Zone. A Fire woman like spirit erupted before surging into Erin's Fire Monsters as Erin explains "Fiery Clow Spirit will give my Fire Type Monsters a 1000 attack point boost on any player's Battle Phase as well as making sure no Fire Attribute Monster can be destroyed by battle or card effect once."

Alexis watches as Erin spoke "Now we battle!"

Alexis smiled "Bring it on! Your Phoenix Enforcer can't touch my monster you're only going to be losing!"

"Who says Phoenix Enforcer is the monster I'm attacking first with?" Erin asked Alexis.

Alexis blinked "What do you mean?"

Erin smiled "Let me show you why Ally of Justice Catastor in my Extra Deck even though it's not a Fire Attribute Monster. Ally of Justice Castor attack Cyber Blader! Justice Beam!"

Ally of Justice Catastor gathers in a beam in it's mechanical head and fired it at Cyber Blader. Cyber Blader takes the attack and Alexis smiled "I told you that won't..."

Then she gets startled as Cyber Blader exploded destroyed "WHAT? HOW?"

Erin explains "When Ally of Justice attacks or is attacked by a monster that isn't a DARK attribute it automatically destroys that monster during the Battle Phase and it isn't!

"Oh, nuts!" Alexis muttered, she hadn't realized Catastor had such an effective effect. Heck her deck didn't have any Dark Attribute Monsters which meant she couldn't destroy it by battle! And to make it worse Erin had one more attack coming from Elemental Hero Phoenix Enforcer. Erin points towards Phoenix Enforcer "Elemental Hero Phoenix Enforcer, attack Cyber Tutu! Oh and don't forget about Fiery Clow Spirit's effect"

The Elemental Hero took to the skies gaining Firey's power 2100-3100 coming down at Cyber Tuto with Erin going "Phoenix Fire Slash!"

With it's claws glowing with fire Phoenix Enforcer slashes out at Cyber Tuto destroying her and the resulting battle damage was enough to depute Alexis's Life Points down to zero.

Alexis's Life Points: 0

end of song

Normally an Obelisk Blue would be in deep shock at having lost to a nine year old girl. Luckily for Alexis she wasn't one of the normal Obelisk Blue. Alexis accepted her defeat gracefully and wasn't disappointed at losing, after all she had given it her all falling just short...If only she had another monster other than Cyber Blader, maybe she could've summoned her strongest Cyber Angel which could've changed the tide but what was done was done. There was no regrets coming from Alexis. However there was dead silence in the other Obelisk blues that Erin had defeated Alexis, a fellow Obelisk Blue. Hearing their stunned silence was music to Joey's ears. Joey couldn't help but rise up and speak to the Obelisk Blues "I told you the results weren't going to be what you expected."

Zane had actually watched the Duel with great interest. He immediately saw why Crowler had asked Alexis to be Erin's first Duel Academy opponent. It was the right call. He gets up clapping for Erin.

Joey blinked seeing Zane do this "I guess he's not so bad after all."

Hearing Zane clap made all the blues do this to although to Joey's eyes they seemed to be forced as in they didn't like what they had just seen Erin defeating Alexis but what was done was done.

Jaden was clapping too shouting words of encouragement "Good work you two! That was an incredible Duel!"

Alexis and Erin heard him and both girls wave to him smiling. Alexis reached out her hand towards Erin smiling at her "So you won...Congratulations. You beat me fair and square."

Erin gladly took Alexis's hand and both girls shook hands being good sports among the crowd whom began chatting among themselves glad to have seen the Duel. Inside the both Crowler looked down at amazement "Mr. Pegasus! Your student won!"

Pegasus nods "I'm amazed she did. Both girls Dueled well, don't you think Chancellor Sheppard?"

"I do" Chancellor Sheppard said "So the Fiery Card also went that same transformation."

Pegasus shook his head yes "Yes, it did. Now if you excuse me I must give my parting words to Erin, and her friends."

"I'll come with you too" Crowler said.

Pegasus knew why and allowed it.

The two meet Erin whom was being congratulated by Joey, whom was rubbing her hair "You did well Erin! I loved it when all the Obelisk Blues were silent."

"Thanks Joey" Erin told him smiling "Just don't mess up my hair!"

Phineas smiled "How was your first ever Duel in front of thousands?"

"Nerve racking at first" Erin admitted to him "But as I continued to Duel Alexis, that was all my mind was on and I never really gave it another thought.

Ferb gave her a smile "You earned that win today. Who would've known your two Sakura Cards turned Duel Monster Cards would've been the ones to give you the victory today."

"I have to agree" Phineas admitted "I didn't see both being able to be used in the same duel but glad they did."

It is then Pegasus arrived on scene "Congratulations on your victory today Erin-Girl."

Erin smiled running over to Pegasus hugging him "Mr. Pegasus! It was all thanks to your teachings!"

Pegasus blushes and acted like it was no big deal when deep down he knew it was "Oh, I don't know about that Erin-girl, sure I maybe teaching you Duel Monsters but you really did this victory yourself."

"Agreed" Dr. Crowler said.

Joey stares at Dr. Crowler whom stared back "What are you looking at Joey?"

"No one in particular than you!" Joey told him "I wish to be moved to Ra Yellow!"

"Can't do that" Crowler told him "It's for the best you are in Slifer Red on your visit. What's done is done."

"Why you?" Joey said but he was stopped by Phineas and Ferb whom amazingly were able to hold him back "LET ME GO GUYS! He's asking for it!"

"This isn't the time to start a fight!" Phineas told him.

"Er...Your right sadly" Joey sighed but he didn't stop glaring at Crowler.

Pegasus then spoke to Erin "Erin-Girl, have fun one your week here. I'll be back to pick you and your friends up at the end of the week, but I've got to go."

Erin blinked understanding why he did and nodded. Crowler stepped up "While Pegasus searches for the ones that are after you, I have deemed it necessary to be the one to temporally assume his teaching Duties."

Erin hesitates not sure how to take being taught by Dr. Crowler. Dr. Crowler then spoke "Pegasus did say you can be stubborn on who teaches you but honestly Erin, I'm the best that Duel Academy has."

Chancellor Sheppard walked onto the scene in time to hear Erin go "Does Jaden count as a teacher?"

Dr. Crowler wasn't expecting this question coming from Erin and collapses anime style onto the floor in shock. Chancellor Sheppard to laugh at Erin's question. Heck even Pegasus couldn't resist not laughing as Erin's question was a good one. Phineas chuckled "I think she'd prefer Jaden Yuki over Dr. Crowler teaching her."

"Well" Joey said also laughing "I'd take Jaden over Crowler to teach her too...After all...Dr. Crowler wasn't it Jaden that defeated you to be able to become a student?"

Dr. Crowler's face was bright red at having his most embarrassing defeat at the hands of Jaden Yuki be brought up again. Dr. Crowler looks at Erin "Erin! What can that Slifer Slacker teach you that I can't? I mean that Slifer Slacker sleeps through classes here"

Erin answered "How good is his Dueling style though?"

Chancellor Sheppard laughs some more "Jaden's great at Dueling. And I can see a lot of pros to it. You'll certainly learn to be energetic like he is. You'll certainly learn from him, and I see him giving you lots of Duels as his teaching experience...Is that something you'd like."

Pegasus turned to Sheppard "I know we said Crowler could take some teaching responsibilities but now that I think about it, perhaps Jaden can be the key in teaching her. After all she's here to improve her Dueling skills and what better way then learning by Dueling."

"Oh-no" Crowler sighs.

"Compromise then?" Sheppard asked "Crowler can skill teach her basics while Jaden teaches her on the field stuff?"

Erin strangely agreed to this "I can do that! I'd like that."

Crowler blinks "Really? Basics with me?"

Erin nods "Yep, but on the field training should be someone like Jaden."

"Jaden does have something most of the Duelist here don't" Phineas admitted "And I'm not only talking about his carefree nature."

Chancellor Sheppard then settles the debate "Then Erin, Crowler will teach you the basics still, and Jaden will teach you on the field stuff setting up Duels. I'll have a chat with Mr. Yuki to set this up, but for now enjoy your stay here."

The Chancellor goes off to have this talk with Jaden. With Crowler still trembling thinking Can't blame Erin now Crowler, she's a visitor. But out of all the students here, WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE THAT SLIFER SLACKER SHE LIKES BEST? WHAT DOES HE HAVE THAT I CAN'T TEACH?

Joey just smirks seeing Crowler trembling thinking I see what Syrus told me about Crowler is right...He doesn't like Jaden. Heck if Jaden can beat Crowler, then so can I and that gives me an idea.

Joey begins walking off with Erin turning to him "Where are you going?"
Joey looked at her "Prepping my deck for my first ever Duel here!"

"Oh, okay" Erin, Phineas, and Ferb said.

They looked at each other then at once they knew who Joey wanted to Duel first turning to Dr. Crowler with Phineas muttering "This duel Joey may have with Dr. Crowler...Will be another interesting match up."

Ferb agreed "Joey's always wanted to Duel the elites, now he gets his chance."

"Then we should support him" Erin told her two friends.

The two boys agreed "Right."

The three walk off to join Joey to help him prepare for his Duel with Crowler.

Crowler overheard the conversation and was shaking thinking to himself IF MR. WHEELER WANTS TO DUEL ME THEN HE'S GOING TO GET ONE! I'M GOING TO PUT HIM IN HIS PLACE LIKE THE SLIFER SLACKER HE TRULY IS! IF KAIBA CAN BEAT HIM! THEN SO CAN I!

END OF CHAPTER

Hello everyone! Today is my birthday and I've turned 29 years old. Anyway this chapter is over and I actually had fun writing it. Anyway I hoped you enjoyed this Duel Erin had with Alexis and the next chapter is sure to be another excellent Duel. Next chapter is Chapter 11: Elite vs Luck: In order to show everyone that he's no pushover, Joey challenges Dr. Crowler to a Duel in front of him teaching his class.
