Hey guys now here we are taking things in the Synchro Dimension. ENJOY!


In the director's office...

"Ah, you must be the last of our guests." stated a blonde man in a purple suit looking at the Lancers except for Declan.

"Oni-Chan!" Leo ran to Yuya.

"Leo I'm so glad you're safe." Yuya mentioned hugging him.

"Such a touching reunion, though tell me." the security director said calmly. "What Dimension are you from, and what are you doing here?"

"We are from something you call Standard. Now then we are on an important mission, and- Wait... where Declan?" Yusei asked seeing the Lancer Leader wasn't with them.

"Declan, we weren't able to locate anyone besides you all." the security director stated. "Now, what exactly are you doing here in the Synchro Dimension?"

"We need to gather allies. People from the Fusion Dimension will be coming here soon." Yusei answered.

Yuto nodded "Yes, me and Shun are from the Xyz Dimension, and destroyed out home, and are starting to take over the Standard."

"I see, then I have a offer for you all." the security director stated. "The Friendship Cup is starting soon, should one of you manage to defeat Jack in an official match and become the new champion I will provide whatever assistance I can in your battle with the Fusion Dimension. Is that a fair trade?"

"Very well. But their's one thing you need to tell us. What is this Friendship Cup about?" Yusei asked.

"It's simply a duel monsters tournament to promote companionship between the Tops and the Commons." the security director answered. "You all know how to Turbo Duel correct?"

"Some of us." Yusei said motioning to him, Yuya, and Leo.

"I see, then I would suggest you teach your friends. After all the more of you competing the better, and once this competition is concluded we can deal with the Fusion Dimension as partners." the security director said calmly.

"Agreed." Yusei said shaking the directors hand. "If their a place we can train at?"

"Of course, officer take them to the stadium. Oh and if this Declan shows up let him know where he can find them." the security director said calmly. "Now I wish you all the best of luck."

Yusei nodded, as the officer lead them somewhere.

Celina asked her own question "With Declan gone what are we gonna do?" "Why not we picked Yusei as our temporay leader?" Jaden suggested.

"Jaden, we have a more important problem. You don't really trust him do you?" Yubel asked.

"Of course. Don't forget he helped us against Paradox, Yubel." Jaden told her.

"I was talking about the security director, Roget if the nameplate is right." Yubel explained. "To be honest Yusei's the best choice for a temporary leader so I agree with you on that."

"Alright. Yubel agrees that Yusei will be the temporary leader of this team." Jaden said smiling. Carlita mentioned "That's not a bad idea actually."

"You understand what I'm talking about don't you Astral, Sentital?" Yubel asked.

"Don't forget Atem. And yes." Astral, and Sentital nodded with Stardust Phantom.

"Jaden, I think Yubel means we shouldn't trust Roget." Yugi mentioned.

"Why? I mean he helped us get back together Yugi." Jaden told him.

"That's true, but he also knew about the other dimensions before we told him." Yusei pointed out. "We need to play along for now, but I have a feeling he won't be making good on his promise to help."

Number 96 told them "Yes, this is indeed quite fishy. He is most in league with the Fusion Dimension or something like that."

"Yeah, that would make the most sense. Which means there's probably..." Yuya started before collapsing to his hands and knees.

"Oni-Chan!" Leo instantly rushed to Yuya's side.

As Leo ran to Yuya's side, Yuto suddenly started grabbing his head.

"Argh! My head..." Yuto groaned as Shun went to his side.

"Appear! Wondrous and beautiful dichromatic eyes! Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Yuya chanted while taking the card out of his deck and holding it up.

"Formed from pitch-black darkness, to fight those foolish enough to oppose it with its treacherous fangs! Now, descend! Xyz Summon! Rank 4! Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon!" Yuto chanted in unison while revealing his card as the two dragons appeared in the sky and Clear Wing Synchro Dragon and Starve Venom Fusion Dragon appeared in the distance before the four dragons started roaring.

"Those dragons, it's almost like they're calling each other." Yugi realized.

Then Leo's deck box started to glow as a voice cried out "Now then Crystal Dragon! Break your seal of your Crystal Prison, and help me win against all those who harm the environment. Ritual Summon! I call on Crystal Born Ritual Dragon!" The card was revealed as it started roaring with the other four.

"What's going on?" Sylvio asked nervously. "Why are those dragons acting like that, they're just holograms right?"

"Something tells me the answer is no." Yusei replied staring at the five dragons.

"Whoa." Leo was in awe. 'What do the guys from the future know about this?'


Speaking of future...

"Ok, that didn't happen." Yuri mentioned. "I didn't arrive in the Synchro Dimension until you dueled Selena."

"I know, something's definitely wrong." Yugo agreed. "The only question is..."

"What?" finished a voice from outside. "Oni-chan, are you in there?"

Everyone frozed, as they looked at the door before Yuya flipped the controls for outside.

An older Leo was standing outside the door.

"...Okay please tell me I'm not dreaming." Yuya said shocked.

"No, I see him too." Yuto mentioned.

"How did a...!?" Yugo trailed off.

Aster cried "But he's from the real world! How can he have a future counterpart here!?"

Yuri sighed, as he said "Let's just let him in."

"It's so good to see you guys again." Leo mentioned with a smile.

"Yeah but uh..." Yuya trailed off. Kite said "What happened Leo?"

"What do you mean, I never left once I came here." Leo explained. "You guys are my friends and family aren't you?"

"Well yeah but..." Yuya trailed off.

Yuri sighed, as he said "Come come. I'll explain it." He, and Leo walked somewhere.

"This complicates things." Yuto remarked as they nodded.


Back at the present...

The five dragons kept on roaring.

"What's going on, Leo do you know why they're doing that?" Catlina asked fearfully.

"I don't know. This never happened before. And that dragon!" He pointed it at Starve Venom as he said "That's Yuri's dragon! It means he must be here."

"Wait, if he's here that would mean..." Jaden started. "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, Clear Wing Synchro Dragon, Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon, Starve Venom Fusion Dragon, and Crystal Born Ritual Dragon." Yusei noted.

"Five types of summoning, and five dragons." Atem stated having switched with Yugi when the dragons appeared.

"What does this all mean?" Zuzu asked. "I don't know, but I have a feeling it has to do with why we're here." Atem answered.

Then the five dragons vanished. "What... what just happened?" Yuto asked in confusion.

"You, and Yuya just summoned your Dragons, and Clear Wing, and Starve Venom's appeared then Crystal Born appeared!" Jaden answered.

"We did, I can't remember anything. One minute we were talking about how that guy was working with the Fusion Dimension and the next I'm almost on the ground." Yuto mentioned.

Number 96 smirked before contacting "Zorc?"

"Yes?" Yami Bakura inquired.

"I have seen something unlike any other. I'll send you a recording." Number 96 said before pushing a button on his Duel Disk.

With the four villains they see the five dragons appearing.

"Good, everything is going as planned." Yami Bakua noted as the recording ended. "Make sure they meet up so that we can ensure our victories. Without Zarc's contributions we would have all fallen to our enemies." "Agreed." Number 96 nodded before hanging up. "Are you okay Oni-Chan?" Leo asked Yuya.

"I think so, but if Yuri's here we need to be careful." Yuya said. "Yeah. And keep an eye for Declan." Yuma nodded.

"That makes the most sense." Gong agreed.

They walked as Number 96 suddenly dropped to his knees.

"Joe, are you alright?" Leo asked. "I'm fine. Just I bit... tired all of a sudden." Number 96 said. "Hey you never told us, how you and Joe met." Yuya realized. "Oh yeah, Joe showed me how to get to your duel with the Sledgehammer oni-chan." Leo explained. "Oh yeah." Yuya chuckled.

Number 96 growled in his mind 'Stupid brat. If you blow my cover now I will make sure you suffer for all eternity.' "The Sledgehammer?" Shay asked in disbelief. "Someone was actually named that?" "Haha!" Jaden laughed.

Yuya nodded, "Yeah he's a tough one with Battleguard King."

"Oh I have an idea." Carlita said suddenly. "Some of us can swap stories while the others practice riding."

"Hey yeah!" Jaden agreed as they made it to the stadium.

While Yusei was helping Celina, and Jaden, Leo asked "Mr. Shay who is Lulu?" "Lulu is my younger sister, and she was kidnapped by..." Shay started before glaring at Yuya only to look down. "By Yuri."

Leo noticed the glare, as he said "Don't worry. You, and your sister can be reunited. I know me, and my daddy will." "I hope you're right." Shay mentioned. "It's just still a bit unsettling that Yuya and Yuri have the same exact face." "I know... weird huh? Hey can we duel?" Leo asked Shay. "A duel, why not." Shay replied. "You can go first Leo." "Right. Since we're a team we can get to know our play styles right?" Leo asked a but shyly as Yuto notices them.

"You're right, that does make sense." Shay agreed.

"DUEL!"

"Just like Kite, and Yuto you can Rank-Up Xyz?" Leo asked surprised.

"You're surprised?" Shay asked with a smirk. "We're all from the Xyz Dimension remember?"

"It's just not fair I can't." Leo pouted.

"Well you don't have any Xyz monsters in your Crystal Deck." Yuto pointed out. "If you did we could show you how it works." "I do. And I'll prove it!" The two crystal monsters glowed blue.

"Well then." Shay said calmly.

"From the Ninjutsu Arts lays a Ninja that is very skillfull. A warrior that is unstoppable, and a single swipe of his blade can lay evil to rest! Xyz Summon! Appear, Rank 4! Blade Armor Ninja!"

"How do we find one?" Leo asked ending his turn."

"You could always ask Astral for one." Yuma suggested.

"Your turn, Mr. Shay." Leo said.

"Alright, but you wanted to rank up Blade Armor Ninja didn't you?" Shay asked.

"Yeah... too bad I don't have a Rank-Up-Magic Card." Leo said looking down.

"Actually Leo, you do have one." Astral said suddenly.

"What? I do?" Leo asked him surprised.

"Yes, Rank-Up-Magic Crystal Force." Astral replied. "It was created when we merged together. You simply need to draw it."

"2 Rank-Ups in a row?" Leo asked. "That's how Shun's deck works." Yuto mentioned.

Leo nodded. Yuya remarked "I never seen Leo toughen up like this." "He's been through a lot Yuya." Zuzu explained.

"Yeah, by the way you two are up." Jaden mentioned.

"Yeah but... when he said he wasn't scared of Yuri I thought he was joking." Yuya said. "Maybe some of your bravery's rubbing off on him." Zuzu guessed before the two of them walked over to try and learn how to ride a duel runner.

"Okay Mr. Shay what else you got?" Leo asked.

"That depends, how much do you want to Rank-Up in this duel?" Shay asked. "I could wipe out half your life points this turn."

"A lot." Leo answered.

"Then I'll end my turn, but Leo if I wanted to I could have used Revolution Falcon to destroy Blade Armor Ninja and deal it's attack points as damage, then attack directly for 4200 points of damage." Shun explained.


Leo: 4000

Shay: 4000


Leo 4th Turn:

"Wait wha- Whoa. That would surely suck." Leo chuckled a bit embarassed, as he drew.

"That's why I asked." Shun replied. "Well Leo, did you pull it?"

Leo looked, as he made a frown. "Not yet."

"Two turns left." Shay said. "If you don't draw your Rank-Up-Magic card in two turns I'll just end the duel."

"Eleven." Shay answered. "Ele-Wow." Leo said. 'Sentital remind to me ask him if he can be my Rank-Up mentor?'

'I'll ask him for you.' Sentital replied.

Leo nodded, as he looked at the card, and growled slightly. "One turn left." He told Shay.

Shay 5th TurnL

"Then it's my move, so I'll discard Rank-Up-Magic Raid Force in order to add Skip Force back to my hand, and now I'll activate it and rank up Raidraptor - Satellite Cannon Falcon!" Shay cried as his monster flew to the Overlay Network for the forth time.

Leo 6th Turn:

Leo gaped at the size, as he closed his eyes, 'This is it. If I don't draw it I'm dead meat.'

"Here goes!" Leo drew, as he opened his eyes before he made a wide open smile. "I'm guessing that means you drew the card?" Shay asked.

"Yeah!" Leo nodded, as he revealed the card to him. "Then all you need to do is use it, and Rank Up your Blade Armor Ninja." Shay said calmly. "Okay." Leo nodded, as he reads the effect before frowning. "Hey Astral do I even have a Rank-Up form of Blade Armor Ninja?"

"There's only one way to find out." Astral mentioned.

Leo nodded, as he played "Okay I play the Rank-Up-Magic Crystal Force! This evolves Blade Armor Ninja up for two ranks!"

"It would appear that you did possess a Rank-Up form of Blade Armor Ninja." Astral commented.

"Yeah." Leo nodded. "Now I activate, Crystal Armor Ninja's ability! By using an Overlay Unit your monster's attack points are cut in half, and they conduct battle with each other! And it's abilities are negated!"

"Sorry, but Ultimate Falcon is unaffected by your card effects." Shay explained.

"What?" Leo asked as Crystal Armor Ninja stand down. "Well that was a waste."

"No it wasn't, your new monster is impressive. Against any of my other monsters it would worked but Ultimate Falcon is my strongest monster." Shay explained. "Are you going to be doing anything else Leo?"

"No." Leo shook his head.

Shay 6th Turn:

"Alright, in that case it's my move so first I'll equip Ultimate Falcon with Raptor's Ultimate Mace!" Shay cried.


Raptor's Ultimate Mace

"This boost its attack points to 4500, then I'll use one of Ultimate Falcon's seven overlay units to negate Crystal Armor Ninja's effects and lower his attack points by 1000." Shay said. "Now I'll attack!"

Crystal Armor Ninja: (ATK: 2500 - 1000 = 1500)

Leo grunted as his Rank-Up Xyz was destroyed, (Leo: 1000) He smiled at Shay, before he said "You win."

"Right." Shay said calmly.


Leo: 1000 (Surrendered)

Shay: 4000

Shay wins the duel!


"Well you got the basics down at least." Yuto mentioned.

"Leo, did you happen to notice the other effect of Crystal Force?" Astral inquired as Yuya raced past them on the duel runner.

"Their is?" Leo asked.

"Rank-Up-Magic Crystal Force: Target 1 face-up Xyz Monster you control; Special Summon from your Extra Deck, 1 Xyz monster that is 2 Ranks higher than that target, by using that target as the Xyz Material. (This Special Summon is treated as an Xyz Summon. Xyz Materials attached to that target also become Xyz Materials on the Summoned monster.) If you control Crystal Born Ritual Dragon, you can banish this card from your graveyard and summon one Xyz monster that lists Crystal Born Ritual Dragon as an Xyz Material. If you do attach three cards from your deck as Xyz Materials to the summoned monster." Astral quoted.

"So your saying..." Leo said widening his eyes. "Exactly." Astral replied.

"If I would summon Crystal Born Ritual Dragon I would Crystal Force, and summon Crystal Elder Xyz Dragon, then defeat Ultimate Falcon, and win!" Leo summerized.

"True, but you would have needed Crystal Born Ritual Dragon on the field first." Astral noted as Yuya and Zuzu walked up.

"It's your turn little bro." Yuya mentioned. "You and Yuma."

"Huh?" Leo asked confused.

"To practice riding a duel runner." Zuzu explained.

"Uh... I'm more of a hover board person." Leo said. "Besides a Duel Runner is to big for me."

"I figured as much, but there's still something you should learn how to do." Yusei mentioned walking up to him. "Can you ride backwards?"

"Ride... what?" Leo asked staring at Yusei.

"Watch." Yusei mentioned before racing away on his duel runner before turning and riding past them only to turn around and pass them while facing backwards. "It could definitely come in handy in the tournament, or if anything unexpected happens."

"Whoa... but won't accendents happen?" Leo asked.

"That's why we're practicing it here." Yusei answered. "Knowing how to do this prevented my friend from getting into an accident."

"Uh okay..." Leo nodded.

"Trust me, it's better you know how to ride backwards and never need to then end up in a situation where you have to in order to avoid crashing." Yusei mentioned recalling what nearly happened to Akiza.

"Well... I don't know..." Leo trailed off still unsure. "But I'll do it... if Joe tries it with me."

"Me?" Dark Mist asked in surprise.

"Well yeah. Your the first friend I made before meting Oni-Chan." Leo told him.

"Well alright." Dark Mist agreed. "I can try."


That's all for today guys. First time Leo using Rank-Ups congrats to him! Be sure to review!
