Final Round:
The next day was the final round of the Duel offs to see who would be the Duellist to represent Duel Academy at the School Duel single Duel. Now it would be Jaden Yuki vs. Theorn Maheriel. Jaden was confident in his deck that he didn't bother to make any alterations to his deck but Theorn was in his dorm room now.
"I want to give Jaden a true Challenge" he said "Bastion managed to stop him from using Polymerization but he found other ways to fuse." Theorn then looked through his spare cards until he found one Dalish card he didn't have in his deck and then he looked at its special ability, "Wait, this card will make all of Jaden's effects useless." Theorn then widened his eyes "That's it, all of his monster effects will be negated so he can't use the abilities of his monsters. Just wait Jaden, because this Duel will be hard for you."
...
Meanwhile Jaden was in his room where he looked over his cards with Syrus and Chumley
"You can do it Jaden" Chumley said
"Yeah you managed to beat Bastion, the highest scoring first year at the Entrance Exams." Syrus added
"I did" Jaden replied "But something tells me that Theorn is going to give me a challenge, his deck isn't well known and he did beat Daylen Amell at the Exams."
"Well just like you did with Bastion, I'm sure you will come up with a plan to beat Theorn." Syrus said
"Maybe you're right." Jaden said
...
Later, all of the students were back in the Duelling Hall and they watched as Jaden and Theorn shuffled each other's decks. Theorn was smirking as he had now placed his secret weapon in his deck. Solona, Daylen and Neria sat together in the upper stands while Syrus, Kallian, Faren and Chumley sat near the front with the rest of the Slifer Red Students. Alexis, Sereda and Aedan were standing on the balcony with Zane as they watched the Duel.
"Hey Theorn, good luck in the Duel" Jaden said
"Thanks Jaden" Theorn answered "And I hope you are ready when I unleash my secret weapon."
"Secret Weapon huh?" Jaden questioned "Well I look forward to seeing it."
Up in the stands, Solona and Daylen sat next to each other "Something tells me that this Duel is going to be harder for Jaden" Solona said
"And I bet it must be something to do with Theorn's secret weapon." Daylen finished
Crowler then announced the Duel "Duellists of Duel Academy, welcome to the final round of the Duel off" Crowler announced "Whoever wins this Duel will be Duel Academy's representative for the School Duel against North Academy in the singles Duel. Please Welcome from Ra Yellow, Theorn Maheriel" many people cheered for Theorn as he took his place. Crowler then grumbled because Sheppard had told him to announce Jaden properly this time "And then from Slifer, Jaden Yuki." Most of the Slifers cheered for Jaden
"Hey Theorn, I hope this will be a sweet Duel" Jaden said as he took his place
"Well this Duel will be harder for you than you think." Theorn smirked and both he and Jaden drew 5 cards.
"DUEL!"
Jaden: 8000
Theorn: 8000
"I'll take the first move" Jaden said "I'll start by summoning my old buddy Elemental Hero Lady Heat in attack mode." Jaden's orange haired and armoured female flaming warrior appeared on the field in attack mode (Level 4 Attack 1300 Defence 1000) "And I'll end my turn with a facedown. And when I end my turn, Lady Heat's special ability activates which deals 200 points of damage for every elemental Hero on my field." Lady Heat sent a fireball which struck Theorn taking 200 life points from him.
Jaden: 8000
Theorn: 7800
Syrus and Chumley cheered for Jaden "First Blood on his first turn" Syrus cheered
Kallian snorted "Guys, that was only a small amount of Life points and we know that Theorn has a few tricks to play."
Theorn then drew his next card "I'll start by summoning an old buddy of mine, my Dalish Soldier in attack mode." Theorn's elven soldier appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1500 Defence 1200) "And thanks to his ability, I can summon 1 Dalish monster with 1500 or less attack points and I choose my Dalish archer." The Elven Archer appeared on the field (Level 3 Attack 1200 Defence 900) "And I know your plan, that facedown card is a trap like Drainage Shield or Hero Signal, but whatever it is you won't be allowed to use it because I activate my Dalish Archer's special ability, now by discarding one card, I can destroy one facedown card on your field and I pick your facedown spell or trap." Dalish archer fired an arrow from his bow which struck the facedown card and was revealed to be Hero Signal and destroyed "And now with that facedown card out of the way, I can now have my soldier destroy your Elemental Hero Lady Heat. So go Dalish Soldier, attack with Dalish Slash." Dalish soldier swung his sword and sliced Lady Heat which destroyed her.
Jaden: 7800
Theorn: 7800
"And now you have no cards on your field, my Dalish Archer will attack you directly so go, attack Jaden Directly." Dalish Archer fired a second shot from his bow and struck Jaden which dealt more damage.
Jaden: 6600
Theorn: 7800
"That will do it for now." Theorn finished
Crowler was sniggering "This was perfect, it was Theorn's first move and he's already taken the lead with more life points and two monsters to Jaden's none, I knew allowing Theorn to Duel was a good idea."
Syrus looked at the Duel "Oh man that was the first move and Jaden's already losing."
"Hey Jaden has gotten out of situations like this before" Faren defender "Jaden may find a way to pull through."
"He just may" Kallian agreed
Jaden smirked "Good move Theorn." Jaden commented as he drew his card "Well you did well on your turn, but now I summon Elemental Hero Bubbleman in attack mode." Jaden's blue hero wearing the mask and water pistols appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 800 Defence 1200) "And thanks to his special ability, I can draw two more cards, one of which I will now play, the spell card Bubble Blaster which gives my Bubbleman an extra 800 attack points." A large water cannon appeared on Bubbleman's shoulder (EHB Attack 800-1600) "And now Bubbleman, destroy that Dalish Archer." Jaden ordered and then the Bubble Blaster fired a jet of water which struck Dalish Archer and destroyed him.
Jaden: 6600
Theorn: 7400
"I'll leave it at that." Jaden finished
"Nice move" Theorn commented "But it is nothing compared to this, I play the spell card Monster Reborn which allows me to bring back my Dalish First from the graveyard." Theorn's robed Elven spellcaster appeared on the field (Level Attack 2900 Defence 2600)
"Wait when did you have that in your graveyard?" Jaden questioned "That wasn't in your graveyard; the only monster should be Dalish archer."
"My Dalish First was in my graveyard" Theorn smirked "Remember when I used my Dalish Archer's special ability."
Jaden sighed when he remembered that Theorn discarded a card to use Dalish Archer's special ability to destroy Jaden's facedown card last turn. "Oh yeah."
"And now Dalish First, destroy that Bubbleman." Theorn ordered and then Dalish First sent a blast of magic from her staff which engulfed Bubbleman but the monster remained on the field though the Blaster shattered.
"When Bubbleman is equipped with Bubble Blaster, it's the Blaster that gets destroyed and I take zero damage." Jaden said and Bubbleman's attack points returned to normal. (EHB Attack 1600-800)
"But now with that Blaster out of the way, my Dalish Soldier can send an attack to destroy it now." Theorn ordered and then Dalish Soldier slashed his sword and destroyed Bubbleman.
Jaden: 5900
Theorn: 7400
"That will do it for now." Theorn finished
Jaden smirked "You sure are a good Duellist Theorn" he said as he drew his next turn "But you haven't seen my good moves yet, I play Pot of Greed which allows me to draw two new cards, then I'll play Polymerization which allows me to fuse Elemental Heroes Avian and Burstinatrix in order to form Elemental Hero Flame Wingman." Jaden's old favourite hero with the Dragon Head Hand appeared on the field (Level 6 Attack 2100 Defence 1200)
Syrus looked "What is Jaden doing?" he yelled "That Flame Wingman can't take out Dalish First."
"Maybe not now" Jaden smirked "But now I play the Field Spell Skyscraper." The field changed into a large city filled with Skyscrapers. "And you know what happens, now when an Elemental Hero battles a monster with more attack points, that Hero gains an extra 1000 attack points, so now my Wingman gains 1000 attack points." A red Aura surrounded Flame Wingman as he gained more power (EHFW Attack 2100-3100) "And now attack that Dalish First with Skydiving Scourge." Flame Wingman jumped off one of the Skyscrapers and then he dived and shot straight through Dalish First and destroyed him.
Jaden: 5900
Theorn: 7200
"And don't forget my Wingman's special ability" Jaden reminded "Now you take damage equal to your Dalish First's attack points" Flame Wingman appeared in front of Theorn and then blasted him with the dragon head.
Jaden: 5900
Theorn: 4300
"All right" Syrus cheered "Now Jaden has taken the lead."
"But don't count Theorn out yet" Kallian said
"We know that Theorn still has some tricks in his deck" Faren added
"But with that Skyscraper out, Jaden will be able to find a way to defeat Theorn." Syrus cheered
Solona looked at Jaden "I see Jaden can still turn a Duel around" she said
"Don't Underestimate Theorn" Daylen added "After all, he did beat me."
"Well we'll just have to see what Theorn does next." Neria added
Sheppard smiled "Looks like Jaden knows how to Duel."
Banner smiled "Well Jaden's deck does have some good tricks."
Theorn smiled "Okay so you got me there" he said "But I have some tricks of my own. First I'll switch my Dalish Soldier into defence mode. And then I'll summon Obnoxious Celtic Guard in defence mode." A green armoured warrior with pointy ears appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1400 Defence 1200)
Alexis and Sereda watched the Duel on the Balcony with Zane and Aedan "That's not a Dalish monster." Sereda said "What is Theorn doing."
"He must have a plan with that Celtic Guard." Alexis said
"Yes because that Celtic Guard has a special ability" Aedan explained "It cannot be destroyed by monsters with 1900 or more attack points."
Zane said nothing but watched in interest.
"Then I'll place one card facedown and end my turn." Theorn finished 'Jaden is walking right into my trap' he thought 'I just have to wait until I get the right card.'
"That's all you've got" Jaden smiled "Well, try this on then, Flame Wingman attack that Dalish Soldier. I wasn't going to attack your Celtic Guard because I know that he can't be destroyed by monsters with 1900 attack points or more and Wingman has 2100"
Theorn then laughed much to Jaden's confusion "I knew that you would attack and you may know my Celtic Guard's ability but you don't have any choice, because I activate my trap card, Shift, now I can select your Wingman's attack target and I choose my Celtic Guard so now my monsters are safe." Flame Wingman drove through Celtic Guard but the monster remained standing.
"Oh well, guess I'll try next time." Jaden smirked
"Well we'll see what happens then" Theorn smirked as he drew his card "I play Pot of Greed to draw two more cards." Theorn drew two new cards and then he saw that he had the card he was looking for 'This is it, the card that will allow me to bring out my secret weapon, now to draw Jaden into my trap.' "I sacrifice my two Monsters to summon out my Dalish Healer in attack mode." Theorn's robed Elven Healer appeared on the field (Level 7 Attack 2700 Defence 2400) "And I may not be able to attack as that Skyscraper will destroy increase your Wingman's attack points, but now I place two cards facedown and end my turn which activates my Healer's special ability, so now for every Dalish Monster in my graveyard, I gain 100 life points so with 3 in my graveyard, I gain 300 life points." Dalish Healer's hands glowed white which was then absorbed by Theorn.
Jaden: 5900
Theorn: 4600
"All right, my turn." Jaden said but then Theorn interrupted
"Sorry but now I activate my trap, Dalish Sabotage, now I can negate the effect of one monster on the field and I choose your Flame Wingman though I must have a Dalish Monster on my field." Theorn said
"Well my Wingman can still attack." Jaden said and then Flame Wingman attacked and destroyed Dalish Healer though Theorn didn't take a big hit since his trap protected him but was then destroyed but he was safe from Wingman's special ability for that turn.
Jaden: 5900
Theorn: 4200
"Well your trap may have protected you for this turn, but on your next turn, you won't be so lucky." Jaden said
But then Theorn started laughing and everyone looked at him confused "Sorry about that, but you have just played into my trap and now I can unleash my secret weapon." Theorn said and then Jaden gasped "I play my trap 'Offering to the Dalish protectors' I can play this trap card when you destroyed my Dalish Healer, now by removing one Dalish Monster and one non Dalish monster like my Obnoxious Celtic Guard from play, I can summon out my secret weapon so I remove Dalish Soldier and Obnoxious Celtic Guard. Now the great Protectors of my Dalish monsters can come on out, I play a monster created from wood and Earth and born to protect the elves, I summon out my Dalish Varterral in attack mode." A large Beast monster with a large head full of teeth and had eight legs appeared on the field and the monster looked like it was made from wood. (Level 11 Attack 4000 Defence 4000)
"4000 attack points!" Jaden gasped "That doesn't look very friendly or very good."
"No it does not" Theorn smirked "My Varterral is ready to protect those he was created to do. And now it is my turn" Theorn drew a card "Now Dalish Varterral, destroy that Flame Wingman." Dalish Varterral bent his legs before jumping on Flame Wingman where he then bit hard into Wingman's neck before he tore Wingman to pieces and the Wingman shattered.
Jaden: 5000
Theorn: 4200
Syrus gasped "Oh man, now Theorn has the most powerful monster on the field. There is no monster in Jaden's deck with enough attack points to destroy it."
Zane looked "This does not look good for Jaden, now Theorn has the strongest monster on the field"
"This Duel isn't over yet" Alexis added "Jaden may still have a plan."
Sheppard looked as Theorn's Dalish Varterral appeared on the field "That is one impressive monster" he said "Jaden is going to come up with something to defeat that monster."
Crowler meanwhile was sniggering "This is perfect" he sniggered "There is nothing in Jaden's pathetic deck that can beat that monster. Theorn looks good while Jaden looks like a complete fool."
But Jaden was smirking "That is indeed an impressive monster" he said "This Duel is getting better and better." Jaden then drew his card "Though as great as that monster is, sadly it won't be around for much longer because I play Fusion recovery which allows me to bring back Burstinatrix and Polymerization from my graveyard and add them to my hand. Then I'll play Polymerization to fuse Burstinatrix and Clayman in order to summon Elemental Hero Gaia." Jaden's black armoured warrior appeared on the field (Level 6 Attack 2200 Defence 2600) "And you remember his special ability, now I can half your Varterral's attack points and add them to my Gaia."
Theorn just laughed "That's what you think but my Varterral is my secret weapon for a reason" Jaden said "You see when Gaia is out on the field, the effects of all other monsters on the field are negated" Jaden gasped "Now your Gaia's effect won't activate and neither will any of your other Monster effects, not Flame Wingman's, none of them."
"Jaden's monster effects are negated!" Kallian shouted "But most of Jaden's Fusion monsters use their effects to help battle."
Jaden sighed as now his plan had failed "I end my turn."
"You see now hoe I planned my move Jaden" Theorn smirked "First I play Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your Skyscraper" A typhoon then smashed all of the building and then the city vanished "Now Varterral, destroy Jaden's Gaia!" Theorn ordered and then the Varterral tore Gaia to pieces."
Jaden: 3200
Theorn: 4200
"Now you see Jaden, this Duel is going to be hard for you to defeat me" Theorn smirked "With my Dalish Varterral out, there isn't much hope for you to win."
"Well I can sure at least do my best and try" Jaden countered 'Though what can I do, I have no monsters with enough attack points to destroy that monster, so I guess I should just play defensive.' "My draw" Jaden drew his card "I summon Elemental Hero Lady Heat in defence mode." Jaden's red and orange haired woman appeared on the field kneeling down (Level 4 Attack 1300 Defence 1000) "And then I'll end my turn."
"That's it?" Theorn asked "Well there isn't much you can do but now, Varterral, destroy that Lady Heat." Varterral tore Lady Heat to pieces "That will do for now."
Jaden gritted his teeth 'There must be some way because I'm running out of monsters to use and I can't use my monster's special abilities' Jaden drew his card "I play Graceful Charity which allows me to draw three cards as long as I discard 2" Jaden drew three new cards and discarded two and one of them was Shadow Mist "Your Varterral may negate my monster effects on the Field but not when they are sent to the graveyard, so when Shadow Mist is sent to the Graveyard, I can add an Elemental Hero from my deck to my hand and I choose Elemental Hero Wildheart. Then I'll summon my Wroughtweiler in defence mode." Jaden's mechanical dog appeared kneeling down (Level 3 Attack 800 Defence 1200) "And then I'll throw one card facedown and end my turn" 'My facedown will help me when I need it.'
"My move" Theorn smirked "All I'm going to do is have my Varterral destroy your Wroughtweiler." Varterral jumped on top of the dog and then tore the mechanical dog's head off and the monster shattered.
"Well I can activate his effect when he's sent to the graveyard to add Elemental Hero Avian and Polymerization back to my hand." Jaden countered
"Well let's see what you have planned next" Theorn smirked "I end my turn."
"All right my draw" Jaden said and he drew his card and he smiled at it "Well that is a sweet monster but I'm afraid that it won't be around for much longer. I summon Elemental Hero Wildheart in attack mode." A large brown skinned warrior wearing jungle like clothes appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1500 Defence 1600)
Alexis looked at Jaden "What is Jaden doing?" she asked "That Wildheart can't destroy that Varterral."
"Jaden must have some kind of a plan" Sereda claimed while Zane just stared.
"Now my Wildheart may not have enough attack points but now I play the spell card Wild Half which halves your monster's attack points and then summons a token of the same monster."
Varterral's attack halved and then a second smaller one appeared on the field (DV Attack 4000-2000)
"But Wildheart still doesn't have enough attack points to destroy Varterral." Solona said
"Jaden must still have tricks to play but his Monster's special ability won't activate thanks to Varterral." Daylen added
Jaden smirked "My turn's not over, I play a spell card known as Hero Save, now by removing one of my Fusion Heroes in my graveyard from play; I can negate the effects of all your monsters for this turn so now my Flame Wingman is removed from play."
"That means that Jaden can now use his monster's special abilities again." Syrus cheered
"Now I know that my Wildheart may not able to destroy your monsters but now I use Polymerization to fuse Wildheart with Bladedge in my hand to summon Elemental Hero Wildedge in attack mode." A new version of Wildheart that had Bladedge's right leg, left arm and helmet appeared on the field (Level 8 Attack 2600 Defence 2300) "And now that I can use my monster's effects again, my Wildege's special ability activates so now he can attack all your monsters so go Wildedge, attack Theorn's Varterral's." Wildedge swung his sword and then sliced the two Varterral in two and then both of them shattered.
Jaden: 3200
Theorn: 3000
"All right, way to play Jaden" Syrus cheered
"Yeah now that Varterral is gone so now Jaden can use his monster effects again on the field" Kallian added
Bastion was sitting next to them smiled "Well play Jaden" he said to himself "That was one good trick and now Theorn's monster was gone."
But Theorn smirked and laughed and everyone looked at him "Sorry about that but I'm afraid that my Varterral is not gone yet." Jaden looked confused "You see Jaden, if Varterral is in my graveyard, I can remove one Dalish Monster in my graveyard from play and Varterral returns to the field." Theorn removed his Dalish Archer from play and his Varterral returned to the field.
"Oh man" Syrus said scared "Now that monster is back and Jaden can't destroy it this time."
Sheppard smiled "That is indeed an impressive ability; Theorn can bring his monster back each time it is destroyed"
Theorn smiled "That's right" he said "And now your Wildedge is finish, Varterral destroy that Wildedge." Dalish Varterral then destroyed Jaden's Wildedge which got torn to pieces.
Jaden: 1800
Theorn: 3000
"And since my Varterral is back on the field, you can't use your monster's special abilities again." Theorn added"Now I place one card facedown and end my turn."
Jaden sighed "I just got rid of that monster and then he brings it back, how can I win this Duel. If I destroy it again Theorn will just bring that monster back, for the first time in my life, I'm not sure I can win" he said to himself.
Crowler watched Jaden and he was laughing "This is perfect" he sniggered "I can see that Jaden now doubts himself and he must see that he cannot win. He is looking like a complete fool."
Syrus stood up from his seat "Jaden don't give up!" he shouted "Remember what you told me, a Duel is not over until the last card is played."
Zane smiled at his little brother "I see that my brother believes in his friend that can help him with his Duels."
Jaden then smiled "He's right, I can do this" he said and he drew his card "I'll keep my defences up by activating the spell card Monster Reborn to bring back my Elemental Hero Bladedge in defence mode, and then I'll end my turn there."
"Well I still have my attack." Theorn said as he drew his card "And if you think you are safe, you are wrong, I use my own Monster Reborn to bring back my Dalish Archer to the field" The Elven archer returned to the field "And if you remember from earlier on, I can use his special ability so now by discarding one card from my hand, I can destroy one set card so now your facedown is destroyed." Jaden's facedown which was revealed to be 'Negate Attack' was destroyed "And now my Varterral will destroy your Bladedge." Bladedge was torn apart by the Varterral "And now my Dalish Archer will attack you directly." Dalish archer sent an arrow from his bow which struck Jaden in the chest and he groaned from the attack.
Jaden: 600
Theorn: 3000
"I end my turn there." Theorn finished
"Oh man" Syrus groaned "Theorn now has more life points and Jaden has no monsters while Theorn has two."
"Come on Jaden you can do it" Chumley added
"This duel isn't over yet" Jaden said and he drew a card but then he heard a cooing noise "Oh hey there Kuriboh, you always choose a good time to show up." Jaden then smiled "I summon Winged Kuriboh in defence mode." A small furry monster with fairy wings and 4 green legs appeared on the field in defence mode (Level 1 Attack 300 Defence 200)
"Well it looks like your life points are safe for this turn." Theorn said "Archer destroy that Kuriboh" he ordered and then an arrow from Dalish Archer's bow destroyed the Winged Kuriboh and thanks to Kuriboh's special ability, Jaden took no damage this turn "Well since your Kuriboh was destroyed and sent to the graveyard, his ability still works so you are safe for this turn, but unless you do something, this Duel is over."
"He's right, I have to draw a good card or else this Duel is over on my next turn." Jaden said "My draw" Jaden drew his card and smiled at it "I activate the spell card 'Card of Sanctity' which allows us both to draw until we have 6 cards in our hands." Both Theorn and Jaden drew until they had 6 cards in their hands "Now I use Magical Stone Exhibition so now I discard two cards and get my Hero Save back from the graveyard which I will now use by removing Gaia from the field to negate your Varterral's special ability. Next I summon a second Elemental Hero Bubbleman to the field." A second Bubbleman appeared on the field "And since he is the only monster, I can now draw two new cards one of which I will now use, Fusion Save which allows me to add a Polymerization from my deck to my hand which I will now use to fuse Elemental Hero Bubbleman on my field with Avian in my hand in order to create Elemental Hero Great Tornado." A large green armoured Hero with turbines for hands appeared on the field (Level 8 Attack 2800 Defence 2600) "And since I can use my monster's special abilities, I can now have Great Tornado half the attack points of your monsters." Great Tornado sent a blast of Wind from his turbines which caused Varterral and Archer to lose attack points (DV Attack 4000-2000 DA Attack 1200-600) "And now I'll use the spell card O-Oversoul, now I can bring back 1 normal Elemental Hero from my graveyard and I choose my Elemental Hero Sparkman which I discarded earlier with Magical Stone Exhibition. And now Great Tornado, attack Dalish Varterral." Great Tornado sent a powerful blast of wind which caused the Varterral to shatter.
Jaden: 600
Theorn: 2200
"And you can't bring your Varterral back until next turn." Jaden said "And now Sparkman attack that Dalish archer." Sparkman sent a blast of lightning from his hands which caused Dalish Archer to screech before exploding.
Jaden: 600
Theorn: 1200
"A good move Jaden." Theorn said "But I still have life points left and on my turn my Varterral returns."
"Sorry Theorn but I have one last card in my hand" Jaden countered "I use the spell card Diffusion which allows me to spit Great Tornado back into Bubbleman and Avian." Great Tornado vanished and then the two fusion material monsters returned to the field "And now Avian attack Theorn directly." Avian flew towards Theorn and then hit him with his wing.
Jaden: 600
Theorn: 200
"And now Bubbleman, end this Duel." Jaden ordered and then Bubbleman fired a shot at Theorn from his water pistols which ended the Duel.
Jaden: 600 (Winner)
Theorn: 0000
Jaden smiled and then he did his pose with his finger from his head and pointed it at Theorn "That's game."
"All right" Syrus cheered "Jaden did it, he won"
"That means that Jaden will be Duel Academy's representative at the School Duel against North Academy in the Singles Duel." Kallian cheered
"This is history" Chumley added "Never in the history of Duel Academy has this ever happened. A Slifer representing Duel Academy."
Sheppard then stood up from his seat "And the winner is Jaden Yuki, and now he will be Duel Academy's representative at the School Duel." He announced "Well done Jaden."
Crowler meanwhile didn't look so happy "Oh does this slacker ever lose" he complained
Most of the students were cheering as Jaden waved and smiled.
"Hey Jaden" Theorn called "That was a good Duel. But I would like a rematch one day." He said as he placed his hand out."
"Anytime" Jaden replied as he shook Theorn's hand.
Then Syrus, Chumley, Kallian, Faren, Solona, Neria and Daylen joined Jaden and Theorn on the Arena.
"Jaden" Syrus called "we're proud of you."
"You'll make Duel Academy and the Slifer Dorm proud" Kallian added
Neria placed his hand on Theorn's chest "Remember Theorn, you may have lost this Duel but you are still a great Duellist."
"Neria's right" Solona added "That Varterral is a great secret weapon and a hard monster to beat."
"He's not a card I use often" Theorn said "I only bring him out when I need to. I thought that this was a great time to add him to my deck."
Crowler meanwhile was sulking and was frustrated "I can't believe Jaden is representing Duel Academy, representing me. Will there be a time when he doesn't humiliate me."
Jaden was smiling and then he looked at Solona and Daylen "Well I'll be in the singles while you two are in the Tag Duel. But watch out School Duel, it's time for North Academy to get their game on."
Chapter end:
Author's notes: Well the finals are over and Jaden will be Duelling in the singles Duel against North Academy while Solona and Daylen will be Duelling in another Tag Duel. The next chapter might take a while because I have to plan the Tag Duel for North Academy's tag duellists who will be returning for a more major appearance later in the story.
Next time: The School Duel is on and Jaden Duels an old enemy and rival while Solona and Daylen face a set of twins from North Academy.
