Chapter 14: Quiz Quagmire Part 2

Gong was underneath a waterfall meditating. "No, Gong's gotta push his mind even further, Gong must get stronger!"

at the Dojo School Jenna continued with her duel against one of the Dojo Students.

Her opponent's turn was next. "I draw!" He proclaimed as he drew his card. "I summon Superheavy Samurai Cannon man!"

Superheavy Samurai Cannon man Level 4 Attack 1200

"I'll activate its ability when this card is Normal Summoned I can draw another card from my deck and if that is a another Superheavy Samurai with level 4 or below I can inflict you the damage of its attack or defense points which ever is higher." The Dojo explained. "I draw!"

"I drew Superheavy Samurai Big Guard!" He proclaimed. "Its defense points are 2000 and the attack points are 0 so you take its defense points as damage since their higher!"

Cannon man fired a cannon ball at Jenna but she had a grin on her face. "I activate the trap: Transformer Reflect Shield since I have an Xyz Transformer Monster I can negate any effect damage I would've taken." She explained as the shield blocked the effect damage. "Not bad." Her opponent said.

"That's not all if the effect damage came from a Monster other than a magic or trap card and was negated you take the damage instead." Jenna added making the Dojo Students gasp in shock as their classmate was hit.

Dojo Student: 2000

"Its still my turn, so I play another effect of Superheavy Samurai from my hand which is called: Superheavy Samurai Energy Gate by discarding this card to the graveyard I can transfer its attack or defense points until the end of my turn and Energy Gate has 1500 attack points and its defense points are 1000 so Superheavy Samurai Cannon Man gets its attack points."

Superheavy Samurai Cannon Man Attack 2700

"Oh my." Jenna said looking a bit impressed. "Okay Samurai Cannon Man attack that oversized vermin robot!" Dojo student ordered as his cannon fired its cannon ball at the Transformer monster.

Back at the LID Katt continued her duel against Kit the LID Synchro Summoner.

"I activate Flame Nyan's ability by using one overlay Unit and one the turn this Cat was Xyz Summoned it can destroy up to same number of cards on my opponents that were used as Xyz Material which I used two monsters, you have Gottem and Souza so they're both destroyed for every monster that was destroyed you lose life points to half of their attack points.

"Say what?" Kit exclaimed with a worried tone. "Your Gottems had 3100 so you lose 1550 and Souza has 2500 so you also lost 1250 life points."

Kit: 100

"No way!" Dipper proclaimed. "That's one hardcore kitty!" Ootomo proclaimed as his friends expect for Sylvio, Kakimoto, and Yamabe looked at him with awkward looks. "What?" He asked.

"Now Dark Magician Cat Girl attack Kit directly!" Katt ordered as her Magician Cat fired a sphere of energy at the Synchro Summoner. "Aah!" Kit screamed as he fell backwards on his back.

Kit: 0

"He lost." Dipper said with an awe look. "(She's quite the Xyz Summoner.)" Claude thought with his left hand under his chin.

The duel field vanished and Katt walked over to Kit who was sitting on the floor. "Oh don't feel so bad you did great." She praised making the LID Synchro Summoner blush but he shook his head. "Wha..whatever."

"Oh brother." Julia mumbled closing her eyes with annoyance. "Reminds of the moment between Yuya and Zuzu." Dipper added as he stuck out his tongue in disgust. Claude then approached the students. "Ahem Sylvio I need to speak with you alone."

"Oh sure whatever." The blonde replied as he followed Declan's bodyguard.

"Hmm I wonder what Claude wants with him." Dipper said. "Who knows." Julia muttered.

Claude took the Sawatari boy to an office. "Listen this is important so listen up."

"Well what do you need to speak with me for?" Sylvio asked crossing his arms. "Its about your father." Claude replied. "What about my dad," The blonde LID student asked.

"Do you recall you and friends encountered a pink haired girl with vampire fangs?" Claude asked. "Yeah, what about her, I mean its not like I believe in vampires." Sylvio joked. "Don't those creatures come out at night time?"

Claude was not amused by the joke but said nothing. "How is my father?" Sylvio asked. "Look the details I'm about to tell you must keep a secret till then." Claude said in a serious tone. "Uh sure." Sylvio said shaken.

Back at Clarity Prep School.

The Action Field was changing. "I hope you're ready for the ride of your life." Pierre said.

Yuya and Pierre were riding in Mine Carts along with Quiz Monkey and Quiz Sphinx. "What are we on?" Yuya asked. "Ha ha its a Quiz coaster and you'll find out that every turn has a twist." Pierre answered. "Leaving your puny brain railing, ha ha ha!"

"Pierre sure knows how to spin his opponents and that's what makes him Clarity top Prep Banana." The Clarity principal commented. "Put on your seeking cap, this track has five different action traps." Pierre proclaimed. "You're telling me that I got to answer more question?" Yuya asked. "Oui, get each question right you'll gain 100 life points but if you're wrong then you'll lose 100 life points, eyes away sunk, woi ya!" Pierre said waving as he and his monsters were riding from afar. "What does he mean by sunk?" Yuya asked himself as he realized that he went down fast like on a roller coaster which made him scream.

Yuya took a breath after rolling down but he noticed the Action trap up ahead. "There it is."

"Watch out!" His friends called out as their friend rode right into the Action card. "Action Trap activated, the category is Dueling." As the image of the quiz host appeared.

"You're asking me about dueling, that's my rally." Yuya said looking confident. "Finally a question Yuya can answer." Tate said. "Question here's two displays of Raki Break and what the differences between these cards?" The quiz host asked. "There's a difference, let's see so much to look at." Yuya said observing the two Raki Break traps. "I think its..." The buzzer went off. "Your time is up, the difference is the fingers being held."

"That's what I was going to say." Yuya groaned holding his head with his hands. "Your failure to answer will cost you 100 life points." The quiz host added as an electric jolt shocked the Dueltainer.

Yuya: 700

"Ooh what a shocking twist!" Federick exclaimed as his friends were creeped out.

"Question how many teeth are showing on a Pot of Greed magic card?" The quiz host asked. "20." Pierre answered. "That's correct there's 20 teeth, you gain 100 life points." The quiz host replied.

Pierre: 5900

"I better step up my act or I'm toast." Yuya said as he recoverd from the electric jolt. "Hey Pierre.." He started call out when he noticed another Action Trap was ahead. "Question how many human figures are on the Heavy Storm Card?" The Quiz host asked. "You have 5 seconds."

"That's easy there's two figures." Yuya answered as the buzzer sounded. "That's incorrect, there are 3 figures." The quiz host replied. "No way." Yuya said thinking he got question right.

"Way, there's three figures." The quiz host said showing the human figures and third was small to see. "That guy wasn't there!" Yuya exclaimed. "Yes he was and you lost 100 life points." The Quiz hat figure said.

Yuya began to spin around.

Yuya: 600

"Oh dear." Federick exclaimed.

Yuya then had dizzy eyes as the Pierre classmates laughed in amusement.

Yuya got another Quiz Question wrong and this time he got tickled by little hands. "Ha ha ha." The Dueltainer giggled.

Yuya: 500

He got another question wrong and he rode right into a mud puddle, and he came out with mud all over him.

Yuya: 400

His last question was wrong again and he got frozen.

"one!" Pierre answered.

Pierre: 6000

"That's two in a row." The quiz figure said.

Pierre: 6100

"Oh please its that card." Pierre answered pointing at one of two same trap cards on the left side.

Pierre: 6200-6300

"Who is the greatest genius?" The Quiz Wiz asked. "The answer is: PIERRE!" His classmates answered.

The Extra Stage then disappeared.

with Yuya still frozen and Pierre stood beside him. "Come on." Tate said. "He'd better turn up the heat otherwise Pierre will ice this whole duel." Ally said. "It looks let's face it there difference between their life points is humungous.' Tate added.

Pierre: 6300

"Ha ha ha, I'm too brilliant to be beaten by you, it is like an ant trying to take down an elephant my I.Q is highly fine while you are nothing but a kung found.." Pierre began to say. "Clown." His classmates finished as Yuya unfrozen himself and sneezed causing more laughter.

"gesundheit!" Federick called out as Pierre continued laughing and Yuya continued sneezing for a few second. "They think.." Tate began to say. "He's funny." Federick said. Yuya realized this and waved with a smile.

Pierre soon got annoyed. "Ugh, this cannot be, my command of Trivia is for more entertaining than his answers for a duelist and anyone who disagrees is wrong."

"Alright on with the show, I activate the spell card: Peformapal Recasting, with this I can reshuffle Peformapal monsters into my deck and draw the same number of cards I reshuffled."

He drew and looked at the cards he drew. "Sweet I caught a break, please watch and wonder as I play Timegazer and Stargazer Magician to set the Pendulum Scale!"

He played his Pendulum Cards and they both appeared. "I can summon the monsters level 2-7 all at the same time." Yuya proclaimed. "Swing far Pendulum, crave the Arc of victory!"

"Flip to it Performapal Lizarddraw!"

Performapal Lizarddraw Level 3 Attack 1200

"Snap to it Performapal Whipsnake!"

Performapal Whipsnake Level 4 Attack 1700

"Turn up the heat Odd-eyes Pendulum Dragon!"

Odd-eyes Pendulum Dragon Level 7 Attack 2500

"Ha, I'm not impress." Pierre said. "With three monsters, he pumple Pierre." Tate said. "No remember Quiz Monkey and that Tricky Trap Not so Fast." Federick reminded. "So no matter what Yuya does, Pierre can work his cards up so Yuya won't know if he's going to save his monkey or not." Ally said. "No, see Pierre can only use the effect of Not so Fast once per turn but Yuya has three monsters on the field so he'll get blocked once but he'll still have two monsters left to take out the rest of Pierre's monsters." Tate explained.

"Go Whipsnake strike at Quiz Monkey!" Yuya commanded.

"I activate Quiz Monkey's ability my chimp with make a chump out of you again by forcing you to answer another question." Pierre explained. "I'm ready." Yuya said. "Question after this battle how many Quiz Monsters will remain on the field?" The Quiz Wiz asked. "I'm sure I have it right this time the answer is: Zero!" The Dueltainer answered. "Whipsnake send Quiz Monkey packing."

"My Monkey isn't going anywhere Quiz Sphinx will use its ability once per turn it becomes the target of an attack and you must answer its question." Pierre explained. "What, I don't get this many questions in school." Yuya said.

"Answer this which one of the monsters has the highest level?" Pierre asked.

"If you're correct then that monster is destroyed and the duelist controlling that monster takes damage to its attack points but if you're incorrect then the battle phase is finished. "

"Yuya's Odd-Eyes is the highest level so he's going to be right this time." Federick said. "Which is bad." Ally said. "Why?" Federick asked. "Weren't you listening, when Yuya answers that his Odd-Eyes has the highest level he'll take damage to its attack points and that'll be over for him." Tate explained. "So the only way I can save myself by giving the wrong answer." Yuya said.

"I'm waiting though I'd be thrilled if you were right for a change so answer." Pierre said with a smirk.

Meanwhile at the Dojo School Jenna's opponent's Samurai monster charged to attack her Transformer Xyz Monster.

"I activate the second effect of Transformer Barrier Shield, by giving up 500 life points I can block any attack and take no damage!" Jenna proclaimed as her Transformer Monster was shielded by a barrier and saved.

Jenna: 3000

"Argh nice move and I end my turn." The Dojo student said.

"My move then I draw!" Jenna proclaimed drawing her card and looking at it with smile. "First I activate Rattrap's ability by using one Overlay Unit it can attach a Device Bomb to your monster and destroy it."

"Aah!" The Dojo Student exclaimed as his Samurai Cannon Man was destroyed. "You take damage equal to your monster's attack which is 1200 however using Rattrap's ability also requires him to not attack for this turn." Jenna added. "That means you can't attack me directly, so what is the point of that move?" Her opponent asked looking confused.

"Nothing but I have something else like this I play the Spell Card: Transformer Reinforcements for every Transformer Monster I have on my field I can draw another and if that card is Monster that's level 4 or below I special Summon it however if its not then my battle phase is skipped." Jenna explained as she drew her card and looked with a smile.

"I drew Level 4 Transformer Sky Falcon since its a Level 4 Monster I can Special Summon it."

Transformer Sky Falcon Level 4 Attack 1300

"Now I Normal Summon Jet Bot in attack mode."

Transformer Jet Bot Level 4 Attack 900

"I Overlay this two level 4 Transformers to bring forth another Transformer Monster that has Aerial flight, I Xyz Summon: Transformer Maximal Air-Slash!"

Transformer Maximal Air-Slash Rank 4 Attack 2100

A huge Falcon appeared from the sky. "Just like before: Maximize!" She proclaimed as her Falcon creature transformed into a robot.

"Amazing." The Dojo student said astonished. "That's one cool robot." A Dojo Student praised. "Very cool." Another added. "I say this girl's monsters are robots in disguise!" A third student added excitedly.

"Now I activate her effect by using one Overlay Unit if monster that destroyed this turn by an effect then she gains that monster's attack points until the end of this turn." Jenna explained.

"What?" The Dojo Student said with his eyes widened.

Transformer Maximal Air-Slash Attack 3300

"That's a serious amount attack points." Mr Strong said. (Though I wonder what the point is when she has a monster that's strong enough to wipe out her opponent.)"

"Now Air-Slash attack with Metal Dart Barrage!" Jenna commanded. "Not so fast I activate my Superheavy Samurai Block Gate by sending this card to the graveyard when I'm attacked directly I can negate that attack this turn." Her opponent explained.

"That won't work see when Air-Slash attacks directly and she uses an one Overlay Unit my opponent can't activate any trap or monster effects this turn." Jenna explained.

"(Oh so that's why she used that Transformer's ability it wasn't for just powering its own attack points but also to prevent my student from using his Monster effect this turn.)" Mr Strong thought.

"Now Air-Slash continue your attack!" Jenna commanded as her opponent was hit by the metal darts.

Dojo Student: 0

Back at the Clarity Prep School.

"I'm waiting for you answer like I said if you answer correctly then you'll lose the duel, so no more stalling." Pierre said with a grin. "Its Quiz Monkey." Yuya answered as he turned his head away. "You're totally incorrect but you had no choice otherwise you'd lose the duel since you answered incorrectly the Battle Phase is over." The Quiz Wiz replied. "Also your answer was that no Quiz Monsters would be still on the field but as you see two Quiz Monsters still remain on the field, so you were completely incorrect and I can chose which monster to strike down, the monster I chose your Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!"

Quiz Monkey let out stream energy with X's at the Pendulum Dragon. "Who knew a little monkey would make Odd-Eyes go ku-put. "Federick said. "Now Odd-Eyes Dragon's attack points are added to Quiz Monkey's attack points." Pierre explained.

Quiz Monkey Attack 2500

"At least you didn't send Odd-Eyes to the graveyard instead it goes to my Extra Deck." Yuya explained as his Pendulum Dragon was sent to this Extra Deck. "You're hanging by a thread and you know it, one more incorrect move then you'll be through." Pierre said. "Maybe don't go throwing yourself a victory party yet cause using Lizard Draw's ability I can draw a card for every Peformapal on my field, I maybe down on a few life points but I'm not calling a quits cause I can draw two cards." Yuya added.

"You maybe a Quiz Wiz but I'm a Dueling Domino!" The Dueltainer proclaimed as he drew two more cards. "I'll put the two cards I drew and the last remaining card I hand in my hand facedown."

Yuya put his googles on. "(Alright time to swing into action.)"

Yuya began to run towards the Action Card he saw. "You're dueling empty handed going forward you'll need an Action Card to survive but its too late." Pierre said as he drew a card. "Quiz Monkey attack Whip Snake!"

"I activate Last Minute Cancel, with this trap I can switch all my monsters from attack to defense mode." Yuya explained.

Peformapal Lizard Draw Defense 600

Peformapal Whip Snake Defense 900

"Plus any Performapal's destroyed this turn will return to my hand." Yuya added as he swung on Whip Snake's tail but was soon destroyed by Quiz Monkey's paw causing Yuya to fall down.

"Ok Whip Snake now you're back in my hand let's try to get the drop on Pierre." He said as he continued falling. "You're too late slowpoke!" Pierre said. "Quiz Sphinx liquidate his Lizard!"

Sphinx let out a jolt of electricity and destroyed Lizard Draw. "I got you Lizard Draw, you're going back to my hand!" Yuya exclaimed. "It won't do you any good cause I activate the Spell Card: Double It, since I destroyed a monster in defense mode this turn using a Quiz Monster then my Quiz Monster's attack points will be doubled until the end of my turn." Pierre explained.

Quiz Sphinx Attack 1000-2000

"Plus it can attack you again." The Quiz Wiz added. "Pierre just has to attack Yuya directly and he'll win." Tate said. "Preciously as Quiz Sphinx attacks you remember you'll be defeated by the best!" Pierre proclaimed. "I still have a chance!" Yuya pointed out.

"You're trying to get the action Card but you're simply wasting your time." Pierre pointed out. "We'll see about that!" Yuya said as he leaped on platform to platform to where the Action Card is. "That Action Trap is the hardest question yet so he's going to go down in flames." Pierre added with a grin.

Yuya snatched it. "Here's the card!"

"Action Trap activates now, the quiz category is math for 5000." The quiz host figure explained. "That means Yuya's number question is up!" Federick exclaimed. "Question what are the first 100 digits in the number 5?" The quiz host figure asked leaving Yuya's friends confused.

"That one is a cinch, unless you don't know the answer." Pierre said. "You have 5 seconds to respond." The Quiz computerized figure added.

Yuya was quiet but then he smiled as he took off his googles. "I give up."

Making his friends gasp. "You're not even taken a guess, then your humiliation is complete as you fluke out of this duel and pay with your remaining life points, ta-da." Pierre said. "I wanted it to be wrong this time!" Yuya called out leaving the Quiz Wiz confused.

"I activate the trap: Peformapal Reborn Force, since a Peformapal was destroyed this turn any damage I would've taken from a card effect is deflect from me to and inflicted at you instead." The Dueltainer explained. "Oh la-la!" Pierre exclaimed.

"Now brace yourself!" Yuya called out as the number from the Action Card hit the Quiz Wiz.

Pierre: 1300

"If any battle are in progress this turn then my trap card cuts them short." Yuya added. "Good work!" Ally and Tate cheered. "It can't be Pierre was damage from Yuya Sasaki!" The Clarity students said together looking astonished. "He used his own aggregate to his advantage, that's so aggravating, arghhh!" Pierre said growling with annoyance. "You thought you can cruise to victory cause you have all the answers but this isn't a quiz show its a duel." Yuya said with a smile.

"How dare you try to lecture me, I'm superior to you in everyway!" Pierre snapped. "I'll see that you've done some damage to yourself this turn, however it won't be enough to chance the outcome of this duel cause I'll be the one standing top of the Pyramid!"

"You think so only one way to find out its showtime!" Yuya proclaimed as he drew a card and his classmates cheered. "Attention my fellow dueling fans I will demonstrate the jawdropping of the Pendulum Scale, marvelous when I summon monsters level 2-7 this turn!"

"Now without further Swing far Pendulum, crave the Arc of Victory, my monsters are ready to Swing into Action!" Yuya announced as his monsters appeared.

"Hip to it Performpal hip Hippo!"

Performpal Hip Hippo Level 3 Attack 800

"Joining it will be more Peformapals that will making a encore in this duel!" Yuya added.

"Performapal Whip Snake!"

Performapal Whip Snake Level 4 Attack 1700

"Plus Performapal Lizard Draw!"

Peformapal Lizard Draw Level 3 Attack 1200

"And last but not least Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!"

Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon Level 7 Attack 2500

"I activate my trap Final Question, at the beginning of this battle how many monsters are on the field?" Pierre asked. "Another Quizzy question." Federick groaned. "If you reply correctly then all my monsters will be destroyed but if you're incorrect then you lose all your monsters."

"You got two and I got four so the answer is six." Yuya answered. "That's correct however I play a trap card: Card Shoot, with this it increases Sphinx's attack points by adding Quiz Monkey's to it." Pierre explained.

Quiz Sphinx Attack 1000-3500

"Now Quiz Monkey returns to my hand." Pierre added. "Now there's only five monsters on the field, your answer was six but you're wrong so say farval to your monsters."

Yuya's monsters were destroyed causing an explosion.

"Hah hah hah, I have you hopelessly outnumbered!" Pierre said laughing. "Its my turn to ask you a question, which one is going to win this duel?"

"Since I'm going to win, the answer is me." The Quiz Wiz answered. "That's totally incorrect, I hope you like surprises cause when this smoke clears you're going to see something that's going to rock this school." Yuya said.

"I present to you: Odd-Eyes Dragon!"

"I cannot believe my eyes!" Pierre exclaimed with a shocked face. "How did you do such a thing?"

"I simply activate my trusty trap: Peformapal Curtain Call, it can in handy and prevent my Dragon's destruction and also pumps up its attack by 600 for every Peformapal you destroyed this turn!"

Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon Attack 2500-4300

"Odd-Eyes focus your fury on Quiz Sphinx to strike!" Yuya commanded. "Bad move you forgot about my Quiz Sphinx's ability remember you have to answer a question and when you're right or wrong here comes a new one!" Pierre explained. "Sorry but question time is over cause Curtain Call negates any Spells, traps, and Monster effects this turn as well!" Yuya added.

"Huh, your trap card puts my Not so Fast on hold?" The Quiz Wiz questioned in shock. "Odd-Eyes time to turn up the heat since you're battling a monster with level 5 or above you can smash that Sphinx to smithereens and aftershock will deal double the damage to our not so friendly friend but Trivia Al!" Yuya proclaimed as the Quiz pyramid was destroyed.

Pierre: 0

"You said you wouldn't lose but you were incorrect cause you lost to me." Yuya said smiling.

Pierre was sent on the ground. "I though losing was out of the question."

"It over." Yuya said. "Yuya I tip my two pay after all my years as a duel manager that was the most diamagnetic duel I've ever seen." Nico praised. "Yuya on the behalf of the students and faculty of the Clarity Prep I offer my thanks for reminding us today that greatness isn't just about dueling with your heads but with your heart." The principal Clarity said.

"Perhaps I still have things I need to learn." Pierre said as the crowd applaused.

Meanwhile at Dojo School.

Mr Strong walked to Jenna. "That was great duel, young lady I have admit seeing robots in disguise was truly amazing."

"Thank you." Jenna replied with a smile. "Anyway that's all for today and remember tomorrow you're off work but the next day after your day off be back." Mr Strong added. "Yes sir." Jenna replied bowing.

At LID

Katt was walking as a few male students while some made wolf whistles at her and some had hearts in their eyes. "My my, I'm getting some attention." She giggled cutely and blushing with her eyes closed with flattery.

She passed Sylvio who was sitting on the chair in the LID longue he looked pretty shaken and walked over to him. "Uh excuse me, is something?" She asked. Sylvio was just quiet but more like he was spacing out so she tapped him. "Huh, oh its you Katt." He said looking up at the cat girl. "Its nothing I'm just tired that's all, don't worry about me."

"Oh okay I'll see you tomorrow." Katt said as she walked away but not before waving and she noticed Claude was watching her who had seemed to suspicious even though he was wearing glasses. "(Hmm it seems that oaf is getting pretty nosy.)" She thought as she turned her face around and exited the LID Building.

She then had a malicious smile. "(That LID punk seemed to be getting suspicious then I guess that means its almost time.)"

Meanwhile Sora was dueling another opponent.

"That's checkmate." The Fusion Summoner said.

Meanwhile At Declan's office Claude was talking with his boss.

"Mr President we picked out another Xyz Summon which was powerful like the two readings we got when we a few hours ago." Claude said. "Also we picked up another Fusion Summon as well and we got some data on Katt's new Xyz Monster."

"Hmm another Xyz Summon and Fusion Summon." Declan said. "So there must be other duelists out there with unusual talents."

Meanwhile at the Harbor a mysterious bright white haired girl appeared out of nowhere. She was wearing a dress that resembled angel, had feather wings on the back of her dress, a blue and white striped shirt, long dark blue stockings and sleeves, dark blue hair ribbons on the left and side of her head and on the left side of her waist was duel disk pocket holder.

"Huh, where am I." She asked.
