Yugioh RWBY Chronicles Chapter 16

Fast and Red

(Topaz District)

Dawn was about to turn to night in a moment. Also, conveniently there was no one around to witness a magical explosion to appear out of nowhere. Out from the smoke, Anna, Zack and Mia came flying out. Zack was first to land on the ground, with Anna then landing right on top of his stomach, causing Zack to gasp. Mia then came down last and landed on Anna's back, causing her to let out a little yelp. Team RWBY and JNPR were back in spirit form and were able to descend from the sky with ease. Gina also descended from the sky, holding her wand in the air, and slowly descended to the ground as well.

"Can you provide us a softer landing next time?" Anna asked.

"Sorry. My tricks are more exciting and wild than calm and peaceful." Gina said.

"Putting aside the rough landing, thanks for taking us back home. Mom would be really mad if we came home late." Mia said.

"Don't mention it. I hope you enjoy the new cards we gave you. And without a further ado, it is time for my, GRAND EXIT! Farwell friends! Until we meet again!" Gina shouted, as she pulled out another smoke bomb. However, when she threw it down, it didn't explode. "Huh. What do you know. It's a dud. Eh. I'll just go home the normal way. Bye." She said. A portal to the spirit world then opened up, as Gina exited to the right and disappeared without a trace.

Anna and Mia then got off of each of other, allowing Zack to get up as well. "Now that was painful. Breaking a fall, sort of breaks your own body." Zack said.

"That's not the only thing that'll be broken, lets hurry back before mom loses her patience." Mia said.

Ruby then looked at Jaune. "Hey, Jaune. Is their mom really that scary?" she asked.

"I wouldn't say scary. Random describes her more accurately." Jaune said.

"But her outbursts tend to be a bit forceful." Pyrrha said.

"We saw it happen once, but she had every right to be mad." Blake said.

"I would be mad as well if anybody flooded our dorm room." Weiss said, crossing her arms. She wasn't really happy about being in her tuner form again.

"I don't think anybody would be happy about getting their home flooded." Anna said.

"Eh. What's in the past is the past. See you tomorrow, Anna." Zack said, waving at her, as Mia and JNPR followed. As soon as he turned around, the alleyway shot out a wall of fire in front of his face, causing him to scream loudly in fear. Mia fell back out of shock, while Jaune and Pyrrha brought out their shields and raised them. Anna only placed her hands over her mouth, while team RWBY didn't know what to do at the moment.

The fire then died down, but Zack was still screaming to the top of his lungs. Mia only gave an annoyed look at her brother, and punched him in the arm, putting an end to his scream fest. "It's over now, Zack. You can stop screaming now." Mia said.

"Sorry. But a few inches closer, we've would have been barbequed." Zack said.

"Actually, I think you would've have turned out better regardless if the fire hit you guys. That looked like fire from a duel." Anna said.

"No way, Anna. That looked way to realistic to be the fire from a card game." Ruby said.

"Yeah. Trust me, Anna. I've seen fire before, and even had it on my hair." Yang said.

Curious about what the fire meant, the group slowly leaned their heads into the alley, and saw several duelists lying on the ground. Shocked by what they saw, they almost stumbled backwards. When they looked up, they saw two standing duelists. One was wearing a biker outfit, while another was one they recognized. They also saw a tiny orange spirit magician, standing behind him.

"It's Ethan. I wonder who the other guy is?" Zack wondered.

"Who's Ethan?" Nora asked.

"He's a friend of ours. We started out a bit little rocky, but I think we're getting along just fine." Ruby said.

"I, wouldn't say that." Anna said hesitantly.

"For the record, Anna doesn't really like the Ethan that much." Blake said.

Anna only sighed, as the group turned their attention to the duel at hand. Right now, both players were still at 4000 life points, Ethan had Igknight Templar on his field, Supply Squad on his field, and three cards in his hand. The other duelist, known as Red to Ethan, had five cards in hand, and nothing on his field at the moment. The duel was going into the second turn.

Igknight Templar
[LV: 4] [Attribute: Fire]
[Warrior/Pendulum]
Scale [7:7]
[ATK: 1700] [DEF: 1300]

Supply Squad
[Spell: Continuous]

Turn 2: Red
Ethan Hono: 4000LP vs Red: 4000LP
Ethan Hono Hand: 3 vs Red Hand: 5+1

"My turn! Draw! When I don't control any monsters while my opponent does, I can special summon Vice Dragon from my hand, with attack and defense points cut in half." Red declared.

Vice Dragon
[LV: 5] [Attribute: Dark]
[Dragon/Effect]
[ATK: 2000/2 = 1000] [DEF: 2400/2 = 1200]

"Next, I'll summon the tuner monster, Red Resonator. In addition, when this monster is Normal Summoned to my field, I'm allowed to summon a Level 4 or lower monster from my hand. I'll play this, my Red Sprinter." Red said.

Red Resonator
[LV: 2] [Attribute: Fire]
[Fiend/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 600] [DEF: 200]

Red Sprinter
[LV: 4] [Attribute: Fire]
[Fiend/Effect]
[ATK: 1700] [DEF: 1200]

At that moment, a red fire imp monster, wielding a tuning fork and striking rod, appeared. The Resonator then created a blue portal as a dark red horse, with horns, and fire on it's body came galloping out. It also had two front human hands. "Now, I tune Level 2 Red Resonator, with my Level 5 Vice Dragon!" Red declared.

The Resonator then struck his tuning fork and turned into two green rings and surrounded the purple dragon, turning him into five stars.

2 + 5 = 7

"Let your roar echo throughout and shatter the earth with your explosive power! I Synchro Summon Exploder Dragonwing!" Red declared.

Exploder Dragonwing
[LV: 7] [Attribute: Dark]
[Dragon/Synchro/Effect]
[ATK: 2400] [DEF: 1600]

A pillar of fire then rose, as the menacing dragon appeared, and let out a mighty roar.

"That dragon still scares me, even after seeing it before." Jaune said.

"I think that's the point of his design." Ren said.

Ethan only narrowed his eyes at the monster and Templar only raised his weapon. He only cracked his neck, as sign to Red to attack him. "Exploder Dragonwing! Attack Igknight Templar! King's Fire! Since Templar's attack points are lower than Dragonwing's, he's automatically destroyed and you take damage equal to his attack points!" Red yelled.

Dragonwing then shot a fireball out of his mouth, as it then struck Templar incinerating him. Flames also jumped at Ethan, forcing to cover his arms, as he took damage.

Ethan Hono: 4000LP – 1700LP = 2300LP

"Supply Squad's effect activates. Whenever a monster on my field is destroyed, I can draw one card." Ethan said, drawing a card.

"Do as you wish. Red sprinter! Follow up! Wage a direct attack on Ethan!" Red yelled.

The Red Horse, then began galloping towards Ethan, and rammed right into him. Ethan only coughed a little as he was he was thrown off his feet and landed on his back.

Ethan Hono: 2300LP – 1700LP = 600LP

"What's wrong? Is that all you got? Come on. The least you can do is put up a more decent performance than this." Red scoffed.

"Don't worry, Red. You'll get to see me in action. It's at times like these is when I start to burn up." Ethan said, standing back up.

"Yeah! Just you wait! Ethan is going to grill you and burn you. Just like always does whenever he's manning the Barbeque." Lu exclaimed.

"Are you still mad about that?" Ethan asked.

"Yes I am. I was so looking forward to eating that medium-rare steak. And you ruined it." Lu said.

"Yeah, yeah. I get it. Just get ready to fight." Ethan said.

"Hmph. Impress me then. I set one card and end my turn." Red said.

Turn 3: Ethan Hono
Ethan Hono: 600LP vs Red: 4000LP
Ethan Hono Hand: 4+1 vs Red hand: 2

"Let's do this! I draw! Using Scale 7, Igknight Veteran, and Scale 2 Igknight Gallant, I'll set the Pendulum Scale!" Ethan declared. He then took two cards from his hand, and placed them at the ends of his disks, as the word PENDULUM appeared. Veteran and Gallant then appeared as they then ascended into the sky, with a 7 underneath Veteran and a 2 underneath Gallant.

Igknight Veteran
[LV: 6] [Attribute: Fire]
[Warrior/Pendulum]
Scale [7:7]
[ATK: 1300] [DEF: 2700]

Igknight Gallant
[LV: 6] [Attribute: Fire]
[Warrior/Pendulum]
Scale [2:2]
[ATK: 2100] [DEF: 2200]

Ethan's Scale [7:2]

"Next, I play the Field Spell, Ignition Phoenix! All Igknight Monsters will receive a 300 attack and defense point boost. As for it's other effect, I can destroy one Igknight card I control to add another Igknight card from my deck to my hand. I destroy Gallant to add Igknight Crusader to my hand, and I'll immediately set him in my scale." Ethan said.

Ignition Phoenix
[Spell: Field]

Igknight Crusader
[LV: 3] [Attribute: Fire]
[Warrior/Pendulum]
Scale [2:2]
[Warrior/Pendulum]
[ATK: 1600] [DEF: 300]

A fiery phoenix then appeared in the sky, as it then shot out a ray of flames to Gallant, destroying him, as Crusader immediately replaced him. "Now that my scale has been rested, I can now summon monsters between Levels 3 to 6. Burning with honor and honor, set this battlefield ablaze with your strength! I Pendulum Summon! Appear, knights of valor!" Ethan yelled, as he held his hand into the air.

A giant portal then opened up in the sky, as three red rays of energy came flying out. "Return from the extra deck, Igknight Templar, and Igknight Gallant. From my hand, I play Igknight Paladin." Ethan declared, as the three Igknight monsters lined up together.

Igknight Paladin
[LV: 4] [Attribute: Fire]
[Warrior/Pendulum]
Scale [2:2]
[ATK: 1400] [DEF: 1900]

Igknight Templar: 1700ATK + 300ATK = 2000ATK
1300DEF + 300DEF = 1600DEF

Igknight Paladin: 1400ATK + 300ATK = 1700ATK
1900DEF + 300DEF = 2200DEF

Igknight Gallant: 2100ATK + 300ATK = 2400ATK
2200DEF + 300ATK = 2500DEF

"So, this is a Pendulum summon. It was quite stunning to see it in real life." Pyrrha said.

"It looks unfair." Nora said.

Gallant then spoked to Ethan. "Careful Ethan. There's something off about this duelist. It's strong, yet fearful." He said, sounding a little unhinged.

"Gee, I didn't notice. Thanks, Captain Obvious." Ethan said, sarcastically.

"Was that your method of lighting the mood? If it was, it sucked." Lu asked. K also appeared next to Lu and nodded in agreement.

"Just shut up." Ethan said, as he turned his attention to the duel. "I now overlay Level 4 Igknight Templar, with my Level 4 Igknight Paladin." Ethan declared. The two Igknights then turned into rays of energy and shot into the sky. A black vortex then appeared in front of Ethan, as the rays of energy entered. "Appear, ranger of the west! I XYZ Summon! Shoot them down, Gagaga Cowboy!" Ethan shouted.

Gagaga Cowboy
[Rank: 4] [Attribute: Earth]
[Warrior/XYZ/Effect]
[ATK: 1500] [DEF: 2400]
[OVU: 2]

From the explosion of light, the Cowboy then appeared as he armed himself with his guns, in attack mode.

"Gagaga? What kind of name for a monster is that?" Weiss questioned.

"Actually, it's based off a series of monsters, whose' names have syllables. There's Gogogo, Dododo, Zubaba, and Achacha. They mostly on focus on XYZ summoning." Mia explained.

"Really? That's…unique." Blake said.

"Regardless of names, the Cowboy really looks amazing." Ruby said, admiring how it looked.

"I wonder what he'll do with it." Ren said.

"Battle! Gagaga Cowboy, attacks Exploder Dragonwing! I activate Gagaga Cowboy's effect! Whenever it battles an opponent's monster, I can use one Overlay Unit and the opposing monster loses 500 attack points, and my monster gains 1000 attack points. Go for it!" Ethan yelled.

Gagaga Cowboy: 1500ATK + 1000ATK = 2500ATK

Exploder Dragonwing: 2400ATK – 500ATK = 1900ATK

Gagaga Cowboy then jumped into the air, and began firing a barrage of bullets onto Dragonwing, while the Dragon responded by breathing fire balls. The Cowboy evaded the attacks, and then retracted his guns, and dived towards the dragon. When he got in front of his face, he then began punching it in the face, and delivered a final uppercut, destroying it.

Red: 4000LP – 600LP = 3400LP

"Gallant! Attack Red Sprinter!" Ethan declared.

"You got it!" Gallant said. He then readied his gun, and began firing down at Red Sprinter, destroying the monster.

Red: 3400LP – 400LP = 2700LP

"I'll set one card face-down and end my turn." Ethan said.

"Keep it up, Ethan. You'll get him soon." Lu said.

Red didn't only look worried, but he only scoffed. "Is that your best? You're burning at this moment? You have to be joking. Those cinders were nothing to me." Red said.

"What!?" Ethan said.

Turn 4: Red
Ethan Hono: 600LP vs Red: 2700LP
Ethan Hono Hand: 0 vs Red: 2+1

"Let me show you how a true duelist gets fired up! I draw! I activate the Trap Card Powerful Rebirth. This card special summons a Level 4 or lower monster in my graveyard and becomes an Equip Card. In addition, the equipped monster gains one Level and 100 attack and defense points. Be reborn, Red Sprinter!" Red yelled.

Powerful Rebirth
[Trap: Continuous]

Red Sprinter: 1700ATK + 100ATK = 1800ATK
1300DEF + 100DEF = 1400DEF
LV:4 + LV:1 = LV:5

Powerful Rebirth showed a fiend lord reviving with more power. Red Sprinter then came galloping out of the graveyard. "Red Sprinter's effect activates! Whenever this card is summoned, and I control no other monsters, I can special summon one Level 3 or lower Fiend-Tuner monster from my hand or graveyard to the field. Return to this field, Red Resonator in defense mode!" Red said.

A portal leading to the graveyard then opened up as the Resonator then reappeared in defense mode, chuckling sinisterly. "Red Resonator's effect activates! When this card is special summoned to my field, I can target one monster on the field and gain life points equal to its attack value. I choose your Igknight Gallant!" Red declared.

Red Resonator then glowed Red, as he sapped some of Gallant's life energy and then infused it into Red, revitalizing him.

Red: 2700LP + 2400LP = 5100LP

"Aw man. There goes all your hard work, Ethan." Lu said.

"Not helping, Lu." Ethan replied.

"Next, I'll summon Dark Bug from my hand in attack mode." Red declared, as cube shaped spider appeared on the field.

Dark Bug
[LV: 1] [Attribute: Dark]
[Insect/Effect]
[ATK: 100] [DEF: 100]

"Uh oh. This is does not look good for you, Ethan." Lu said.

"Tell me something I don't know." Ethan replied.

"You soiled your pants." Lu said.

"Huh!?" Ethan asked with a confused look.

"I'm just joking." Lu said.

"At a time like this?" Ethan asked in a deadpanned tone.

"Just trying to lighten the mood. I know it's not the right time." Lu said.

Ethan only looked back at the duel at hand, as Red was about to make his move. "Now, prepare to see a real monster! I tune Level 2 Red Resonator, with Level 5 Red Sprinter and Level 1 Dark Bug!" Red yelled.

Dark Resonator struck his tuning fork and turned into three green rings and surrounded Red Sprinter, turning him into five stars. "Roar of the King! Shake the heavens and forge into yourself the power of the unrivaled tyrant! Synchro Summon! Rampaging soul! Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend!" Red yelled.

2 + 1 + 5 = 8

Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend
[LV: 8] [Attribute: Dark]
[Dragon/Synchro/Effect]
[ATK: 3000] [DEF: 2500]

From the pillar of light, two red eyes lit up from within, as a ferocious dragon then appeared on the field. The dragon appeared to be a bipedal, and its body was red, black and orange. On it's waist, it had spikes that were around it. The left side of this body had more armor than his right side. It had four horns sticking out, with two sticking out from the back of it's head, and two curving around in the front. However, the right horn was broken. Like most dragons, Archfiend had two black and orange wings. What was interesting about this card was that it's right arm was scarred, and casted with bone plating, with red fire flowing through it. The dragon let out a terrifying roar, which could be heard all around the district. Ethan's took a step back out of fear and both respect of the monster's strength. The group that was watching was speechless after seeing the Dragon. Lu and K were hiding behind Ethan's left leg, while Ethan just gritted his teeth.

"Once per turn, Scarlight destroys all of your special summoned effect monsters with lower attack points than his, and you take 500 points of damage for each. Absolute Power Flame! You're finished! Red yelled.

Scarlight clenched his right first, as fire then flowed from his lower right arm to his fist. The orange colored areas of his body then lit up, as it then threw out it's fist sending blast of raging fire towards Ethan's monsters.

"I activate my face-down! Mystik Wok! By releasing one monster I control, I gain life points equal to either its attack or defense points. I release Gagaga Cowboy and gain 2400 life points! Also, since Gallant is a normal type monster, he isn't affected by your dragon's effect." Ethan declared.

Mystik Wok
[Spell: Quick-Play]

Ethan Hono: 600LP + 2400LP = 3000LP

A giant wok then appeared on Ethan's field. Gagaga Cowboy then turned into a ray of energy and was then tossed in the multiple times, and then entered Ethan's body as energy, healing him. Scarlight then launched its fire attack, but Gallant was unaffected by the raging flames.

"Your monster may be still standing, but not for long. Scarlight attacks your Igknight Gallant! Crimson Infernal Hell Burning!" Red yelled.

Scarlight then brought its head back and then breathed a vortex of fire. Gallant crossed his arms, but was burned down to the ground, and shattered. "Since, a monster on my field was destroyed, Supply Squad lets me draw one card." Ethan said.

Ethan Hono: 3000LP – 600LP = 2400LP

"That doesn't mean you're in the clear yet. I'll play two cards face-down and end my turn." Red said.

Turn 5: Ethan Hono
Ethan Hono: 2500LP vs Red: 5100LP
Ethan Hono Hand: 1+1 vs Red: 0

"My turn now! I…DRAW!" Ethan yelled, as his draw somehow generated sparks of fire. "I activate Ignition Phoenix's effect! I destroy Igknight Crusader, to add Igknight Cavalier to my hand! I'll then set Cavalier in my Pendulum zone." Ethan said.

Igknight Cavalier
[LV: 5] [Attribute: Fire]
[Warrior/Pendulum]
Scale [2:2]
[ATK: 2400] [DEF: 1200]

Ethan's Scale: [7:2]

"Next, I activate Igknight Veteran's pendulum effect! By destroying himself, and Cavalier, I'm allow to add another Igknight Monster from my deck to my hand. I'll add, another Igknight Paladin to my hand." Ethan said. Veteran and Cavalier then erupted into flames, allowing Ethan to retrieve his card.

"Now, I'll set the Pendulum Scale once more, with Scale 7 Igknight Margrave and Scale 2 Igknight Crusader!" Ethan said, reactivating his scale.

Igknight Margrave
[LV: 5] [Attribute: Fire]
[Warrior/Pendulum]
Scale [7:7]
[ATK: 1500] [DEF: 2500]

"Once again, rampage and burn with valor! I pendulum summon! Appear, Knights of Valor! From the extra deck, Igknight Gallant, Veteran, Crusader and Cavalier." Ethan declared, holding his hand in the air.

Igknight Gallant: 2100ATK + 300ATK = 2400ATK
2200DEF + 300DEF = 2500DEF

Igknight Veteran: 1300ATK + 300ATK = 1600ATK
2700DEF + 300DEF = 3000DEF

Igknight Crusader: 1600ATK + 300ATK = 1900ATK
300DEF + 300DEF = 600DEF

Igknight Cavalier: 2400ATK + 300ATK = 2700ATK
1200DEF + 300DEF = 1500DEF

A portal above Ethan's field opened up, as several monsters flew out. The Veteran and Crusader appeared next to each other in defense mode, while Gallant and Cavalier were in attack mode. "Next, I use Margrave's effect! By destroying himself and the Crusader in my other Pendulum Zone, I can take a fire-warrior type monster from my deck or graveyard and add it to my hand. I add Igknight Lancer from my deck to my hand. Next, I release both Igknight Veteran and Igknight Gallant and advance summon Igknight Lancer from my hand!" Ethan declared.

Igknight Lancer
[LV: 7] [Attribute: Fire]
[Warrior/Effect]
[ATK: 2600] [DEF: 1800]

Igknight Lancer: 2600ATK + 300ATK = 2900ATK
1800DEF + 300DEF = 2100DEF

Crusader and Gallant then erupted in flames, and the flames converged together. When they dispersed, Igknight Lancer was revealed kneeling down. He then stood up and raised his Gatling-Lance gun.

"That looks extremely painful." Ren said.

"You don't know the half of it." Blake said, shivering at the memory from being impaled by the weapon.

"Igknight Lancer's effect activates! I return Igknight Crusader back to my hand. With that, I return the face-down card on your left, back to the bottom of your deck. Gatling Burn!" Ethan yelled.

With that said, Gallant went back to Ethan's hand. Lancer then set his sights on the face-down and blasted away multiple lances at the face-down. This caused multiple explosions sending the card back to the deck. Red only scowled. "That was my King Scarlet Trap card. I've would've been able to summon my form Abyss next turn. If this is an Igknight deck, then he must have Champion in his deck. Most duelist I've come across so far have been obsessed with destroying my other forms, after seeing them, and disregarded all other possibilities on the field. This shows that this man is capable of thinking under pressure. Also, his face shows no signs of fear. How amusing. Looks like he shows promise." Red thought.

"I've risked everything to gain the upper hand. I no longer have a Pendulum Scale, and I have don't have that many defensive cards on my field. However, I'm going to settle it here and now!" Ethan thought. "I activate the spell card, Pot of Riches! By returning Pendulum Monsters that are in my graveyard, or face-up in my extra deck, I can draw two cards. I return the Templar and Paladin that are in my graveyard and the Crusader in my extra deck back to the main deck, and then draw two cards!" Ethan declared.

Pot of Riches
[Spell: Normal]

Pot of Riches showed a bulkier, and golden pot. Ethan then retrieved the cards from his grave and extra deck, and sent them back to the deck, before drawing his two cards. When he saw then, he only acted.

"I first activate the Equip Spell, Rocket Pilder, and equip it to Igknight Lancer! The second card I drew is Amulet of Ambition, and I'll equip it to Igknight Cavalier!" Ethan said.

Rocket Pilder
[Spell: Equip]

Amulet of Ambition
[Spell: Equip]

For Igknight Lancer, I gigantic Red Booster Rocket appeared in front of him. Lancer then grabbed the rocket and attached it to the front of his gun. As for Cavalier, a star shaped amulet, with an eye in the middle and a magic circle around it appeared. Suddenly Cavalier began yelling to the top of her lungs.

"I'M EVEN MORE FIRED UP THAN BEFORE! AND ALSO, ANGIER!" she yelled, as her eyes glisten with rage. Lancer only sidestepped a couple of inches away from his comrade, out of fear of getting horribly injured. For the Igknights, Cavalier is the only thing that they fear the most.

"Battle! Igknight Lancer! Attack Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend! With Rocket Pilder equipped to Lancer, Lancer isn't destroyed." Ethan said. Lancer only raised his Gatling gun and fired the rocket right at Scarlight, causing an explosion that sent a shockwave across the field. However, since Ethan had lower life points, he still took damage.

Ethan Hono: 2500LP – 100LP = 2400LP

"Rocket Pilder's final effect activates! After damage calculations, the Lancer's attack target loses attack points equal to his own attack value! In other words, your dragon loses 2900 attack points." Ethan said. Everyone then looked up and saw that Scarlight was much weaker now.

Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend: 3000ATK – 2900ATK = 100ATK

"Battle! Igknight Cavalier! Attack Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend! With the Amulet of Ambition, whenever she battles a monster with a higher level, she gains 500 attack points for each difference in levels. Scarlight's level is 8, while Cavalier's level 5. In short, Cavalier's attack strength increases by 1500 for this battle! Derringer Explosion!" Ethan yelled.

Igknight Cavalier: 2700ATK + 1500ATK = 4200ATK

Cavalier then began sprinting towards Scarlight and then jumped into the air. She the began throwing several Derringer Daggers at Scarlight, as the blades struck the dragon and the triggers went off firing explosive shots everywhere. Cavalier then dived down towards the dragon and attempted to punch it in the face. Before she could, an explosion occurred that engulfed the entire field. Cavalier then back flipped out from the smoke and landed on the ground. Everyone then looked at the opposing field. To their shock, Scarlight was still on the field, but now covered in a protective blue sphere. Red was also still standing, but damaged.

"Before your attack destroyed my other form, I used the Trap Card Safe Zone and equipped it to Scarlight. With that, Scarlight can't be destroyed by battle or card effects." Red said.

Red: 5100LP – 4100LP = 1000LP

Igknight Cavalier: 4200ATK – 1500ATK = 2700ATK

Safe Zone
[Trap: Continuous]

"I end my turn." Ethan said.

"If only Red Resonator didn't heal him last turn, this duel would've been over, even if his dragon wasn't destroyed." Lu said.

"Let's not worry too much." Ethan said.

Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend: 100ATK + 2900ATK = 3000ATK

Turn 6
Ethan Hono: 2400LP vs Red: 1000LP
Ethan Hono Hand: 1 vs Red: 0+1

(Insert BGM: Jack Atlas theme)

"Not bad, Ethan. You've almost had me there." Red said. He then drew his card and glanced at it. "While you're better than most of the duelist that I've faced, it still isn't enough to defeat me. I summon Chain Resonator from my hand!" Red declared.

Chain Resonator
[LV: 1] [Attribute: Light]
[Fiend/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 100] [DEF: 100]

The Resonator that appeared was the same as the rest, but this one had looped chain on it's back. "Chain Resonator's effect activates. Whenever I summon this little fella, and I have a synchro monster on my field, I can summon another Resonator monster from my deck. So, say hello to Mirror Resonator!" Red yelled. Another Resonator monster appeared on the field, only this one had a gigantic mirror on his back.

Mirror Resonator
[LV: 1] [Attribute: Light]
[Fiend/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 0] [DEF: 0]

"You showed me your spirit and vigor, and as thanks, you shall hear the king's roar! Now I double tune both Level 1 Mirror Resonator, and Level 1 Chain Resonator with Level 8 Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend!" Red yelled.

"Double tune?" Ruby wondered.

"Double tuning is a method where you use two tuners instead of one. Only the Red Dragon Archfiend is capable of such of a feat." Anna said.

"I've heard about it but haven't seen it before. This is going to be awesome. I need to get my phone." Zack said, as he began digging through his pockets.

Scarlight and the two Resonator monsters then began to ascend into the sky. Instead of turning into a total of two green rings, each Resonator turned into a separate ring of fire! Scarlight then closed his wings around himself, as the fiery rings surrounded him. For a split second, everyone saw a crimson spirit serpent dragon fly through the rings, as Scarlight turned into 8 stars.

1 + 1 + 8 = 10

"Ruler and devil, become one! Call upon the soul of the Crimson Dragon, and roar in the name of Creation itself! I Synchro Summon! Come forth! Level 10, Tyrant Red Dragon Archfiend!" Red yelled.

Tyrant Red Dragon Archfiend
[LV: 10] [Attribute: Dark]
[Dragon/Synchro/Effect]
[ATK: 3500] [DEF: 3000]

The ground from different sides began to crack as fire began to rise and began to converge together. From the ground, a Red Dragon Archfiend rose from the ground, in a new form, as fire swirled around him. His body appeared to be a healed version of Scarlight, only that his wings were much bigger and had an additional layer to them, with more spikes as well. The horns also grew larger, and the end of its tail resembled a black feather with a trident design at the end. Tyrant roared loudly, shaking the ground itself. Lu thought she was crazy for a moment, but she swore she saw the sky shake for a moment.

"Forcing me to play one of my powerful forms is considered a feat itself. At least you can be defeated knowing you accomplished something, and slightly impressed me." Red said. Ethan only stared down at Red. "A fighter till the end. I like that. Allow me to show you a real inferno! I now activate Tyrant Red Dragon Archfiend's effect! Once per turn, it destroys all other cards on the field other than itself!" Red yelled.

"It can do what now?" Jaune said, as his voice quivered a bit.

"This is going to get really hot. Literally." Yang said, as she put on her sunglasses.

Red began his onslaught. "Go, Tyrant Red Dragon Archfiend! Absolute Power Inferno!" he yelled. Tyrant then slammed his right dragon fist into the ground, sending large pillars of fire directly towards Ethan's field. Without any time to react, Cavalier and Lancer were struck by the fire and destroyed, leaving Ethan with nothing, but a burnt field.

"Time to finish it. Tyrant! Attack Ethan directly! Crimson Hell Tide Inferno!" Red yelled.

Tyrant acknowledge this and leaned back its head. It then shot a vortex of fire out of it's mouth. Ethan only stared into the fire, gritted his teeth and covered his arms. The fire then made contact with Ethan, as he was then lifted off the ground, causing him to scream in pain, as he landed on his back with a couple of burns. Lu gasped and ran over to her duelist.

"Ethan! Please be okay! Don't go into the light!" Lu cried.

"Lu. I'm not dying. I'm just in a lot of pain, and I'm about to lose conscious. So please, stop freaking out." Ethan said, as he lost conscious.

Lu only made a pouty face and began imitating Ethan's voice. "Gee, Lu. Thanks for being so concern about me. I respect that. I hope that dragon burned away some of your rudeness." Lu said, as she checked Ethan's injuries.

Ethan: 2400LP – 3500LP = 0LP

(End BGM)

Duel Over
Winner: Red

"A decent duelist, but he lacking." Red said. He then noticed the group looking at him. What caught his interest were the duel spirits that were next to the duelists. "Well, would you look at that. Team RWBY and JNPR right here in the flesh, or spirit. Looks like Remnant is connected to this world as well." He said.

"He knows who we are, and he can see us." Ruby said, sounding a bit frighten.

"Get ready to rumble guys." Anna said, with a bit of fear in her voice.

Red began to approach the group, as Anna and Zack got out their duel disks. Just then, several orange-black Gate like monsters, with red eyes, appeared behind Red, which peaked his curiosity. Just then, two Sector Security Officers jumped over the gates and landed on the ground. It was Drake Aegis and Toby, holding up their Sector Security badges. "Freeze! Sector Security!"

"Dad? How did he get here?" Zack asked.

"While you guys were fixated on the duel, I did the most reasonable thing at a time like this; I called the cops. Well, to be more accurate, I called dad since he is more likely to believe me." Mia said, holding up her phone.

"Oh. That really was responsible." Zack said.

"One of us has to be." Mia said.

Zack only rolled his eyes at the last remark. Meanwhile, Toby and Drake slowly approached Red with caution and arming themselves. Toby had his taser ready, while Drake had his duel disk at the ready. "Sir. My daughter and other witnesses have reported that you've been inflicting severe injuries on several duelists." Drake then looked down at one of the fallen duelists on the ground. "And judging by these injuries, they aren't due to Level A shock waves from solid field vision." He said.

"So, what are you going do copper?" Red asked.

"Look. We don't want any trouble sir. Just come with us back to the precinct. We'll get you a bowl of Katsu Don. Ask you some questions of what of you've been doing. I may not look like it, but I'm somewhat of an aggressive pacifist." Drake said.

"An aggressive pacifist just sounds like an anti-hero." Blake said.

Red thought for a moment and smirked beneath his helmet. "You're quite reasonable than you look." He said.

"Just trying to uphold peace and doing my job. So, what do you say?" Drake asked, as he and Toby closed in on him.

"It's a nice offer. However, while I don't want to make myself the bad guy here, I'm afraid I have other things to do. See you, later." Red said. he aimed his hand at the ground, and somehow shot fire out of his palm, covering himself. Everyone else backed off and covered themselves. When they look up, they saw that the man standing before them, disappeared.

"Drake. Was that a magician?" Toby asked.

"To be honest, I have no clue. Call ambulance. We need to get these guys to a hospital." Drake said. More officers then arrived on scene to help with the situation. Drake then walked to his kids. "You made the right decision calling us. We'll take it from here. You guys just get home." Drake said.

"Are they going be alright?" Mia asked.

"From what've seen from the duelists here suffered mostly from bruises, scratches, some minor cuts and burns. Your friend here seems to be in better shape than most." Drake said inspecting Ethan.

"Is it okay if we visit him tomorrow?" Zack asked.

"Sure. I'm cool with it. However, if you can see him or not, its up to the doctors. But he should make a quick recovery. I can tell that this man has high endurance. For now, the both of you go home. Same for you, Anna. Don't make Victoria worry about you." Drake said, with a stern face.

"Y-yes, Mr. Aegis." Anna replied.

"Oh, by the way. I called your mother and I she isn't mad at you kids. Now get back to the house. I'll see you at dinner." Drake said.

Zack and Mia said their goodbyes to their father, as Ethan was carted off to the infirmary. Lu followed her duelist, without anyone noticing her. The group really didn't say much on the way back. Their minds were filled with questions of who the man Red was. Was he a foe, a rogue duelist doing what he wants, or was he a part of something that was beyond their imaginations? From a far away highway, Red watched the group walked away, and smirked. "Looks like this world is starting to get interesting." He said. Red then walked away to a nearby Duel Runner, which was that of a giant wheel, with booster wings on the back and a fin at the front. He then rode off into the night, hoping that tomorrow will be interesting.

(Grimm Base)

In the layer, Rodney right now was multitasking. One was working on a machine with several mechanical tools. In another area, he was working in a bio-lab, with a bunch of complicated equipment. Right now, the Lab Rat Grimm was running around at fast speeds doing everything. At that moment, Shinrai and Hidou came in holding a bunch of motor parts, and along with some science things. Jay was also there, as he was perched on top of Shinrai's head.

"Good to see you two are finally here. Just set the items over there and help me out here." Rodney complained, as he was mixing some test tubes, and then inserting them in an incubator like device.

"Alright, Old Man. No need to shout." Hidou said, throwing everything sloppily on the table.

"First of all, I'm not old. Second of all, clean up that mess." Rodney said.

"What's all this junk for anyway? A science convention?" Hidou asked.

"It's not junk. One group of items is for our next stage of our plans. The other group is to assist us with our plans." Rodney explained.

"I still don't get it." Hidou replied.

"Shinrai. If you may?" Rodney pleaded.

Shinrai only nodded and spoke to Hidou. "Everything we bought, will destroy everything we are destined to destroy. It's what Grimm live to do." He said, as Jay chirped in agreement.

"Oooooooohhhhhhh. That makes a lot more sense." Hidou said.

"Honestly, I'm really sick of your delinquent stereotype attitude. It's really getting on my nerves." Rodney said.

"Coming from the not-so-obvious Mad Pharmacist." Hidou retorted.

"I am highly offended that you thought that I was a Pharmacist this entire time. I'm a scientist for crying out loud. Not a medical advisor." Rodney argued.

In that instance, Liege and Siren then entered the room. "Good evening, Shinrai. What are those two arguing about?" Liege asked.

"I don't really know. Something about their characteristics or something." Shinrai replied.

"All I need to know is that Hidou is being an idiot again." Siren mocked.

"YOU WANT TO TAKE THIS OUTSIDE, SIREN!?" Hidou yelled, as he stormed over to Siren.

"We can duke it out here if you want!" Siren yelled.

"Fine by me." Hidou said, as he cracked his knuckles.

Before the two could fight, Liege immediately stepped. "Ceased this childish behavior at once. It's kind of embarrassing. Even Shinrai looks embarrassed, and he can't feel emotions." Liege said, referring to Shinrai who had his turned the other way, but with the same monotone look on his face.

"Your right. He is embarrassed." Hidou said.

"No. I'm not. I'm just fascinated by the shiny light." Shinrai said, as he was staring directly at a flashing multi-color lightbulb.

"*sigh* Why did I get paired up with an idiot and a weirdo. I'm just glad the weirdo isn't as annoying." Siren thought.

Malisha's then began communicating with Siren, via telepathy. "I know exactly how you feel. Getting Ashley to study is draining itself. Mindy is socially awkward, sometimes, and really quiet. Zerg is so aggressive, that it's so hard to keep him under control. Don't even get me started on that Draco Kid." Malisha said.

"I don't really know what you're talking about, nor do even care about it." Siren said.

"Oh, come one. I was trying to break the ice between us." Malisha said.

Siren only rolled her eyes, as Liege went up to Rodney. "So how much longer until the next stage is complete?" he asked.

"Assembling it is the easy part, and it shouldn't take too long. However, it will require a large amount of Dark Dust to finish it. If only we can get more right now." Rodney said, scratching his head.

"Maybe I can be of some assistance." Malisha said to the group.

The Grimm, expect Siren, were startled from hearing the voice. They were even more shocked to see a portal open up, and to see a black dark spirit walking out. "Don't be alarm. I come in peace." Malisha said.

"DIE!" Hidou yelled, as he attempted to tackle Malisha. However, he only passed through the dark spirit, and fell face first to the ground. "Wow. Siren was right. You really are an idiot." She said.

"SHUT YOUR YAP!" Hidou yelled, as he got back up, as he then began punching Malisha, but his fists only phased through her body. Everyone only gave blank expressions at the futile attempt.

Malisha only rolled her spirit eyes and grabbed Hidou by the wrist. She then began twisting his wrist. "You know, it's rude to touch a person without their consent. Especially a person like me. I can eradicate you in an instance. But since I'm in a good mood right now, so, we're cool. Right?" she asked.

Hidou only freed his wrist and snarled at Malisha. "Yeah. But that doesn't mean I like you. You remind me of Siren for some reason." He said, walking away.

"Sorry to disappoint. Now then, who's in charge here?" Malisha asked.

"That would be me. And who exactly are you? You seem to look, sinister in a strange way." Liege said, being cautious.

"You could put it that way. My name is Malisha. One of Siren's duel spirits. You see, Siren here released us from a seal, and now we have a little thing going on. She's our duelists, and we are her spirits." Malisha said.

Liege turned his attention to Siren, who gave him a sheepish smile and shrugged. Liege only glared at the female Grimm, and immediately turned his attention back to Malisha. "Ok. I'll believe you for now. But why show up now?" Liege asked.

"Well, I just thought it would be a good time to get to know one another. By the way, I brought you guys a gift. Bring it in, Lola." Malisha said, snapping her fingers in the process.

From the dark portal, a dark spirit version of Lola emerged from the portal, pushing out a large container. She then opened it up to reveal a large amount of Dark Dust. Everyone, expect Shinrai and Jay, jaw dropped, while Rodney was sputtering nonsense, before making a complete word. "MAMA MIA, JUMPING PIZZERIA! THAT'S A MOTHERLOAD OF DARK DUST! Even more than what's needed!" Rodney yelled, as he began running around in circles.

"Where did you get all of this Dust, Malisha?" Siren asked, confused.

"Me and my friends got involved in some big event, that kept on getting bigger, and eventually lead to this bounty." Malisha said.

"W-well while this is quite a bounty indeed, why give it to us?" Liege asked.

"I just want to get along with Siren's comrades. Seeing that we're going to be dueling with Siren, then that means that we have to work with her allies. Plus, it's better to let out our secrets before they build up into personal feeling bombs. It's unhealthy for our minds." Malisha explained.

Liege thought for a moment and scratched his chin. "Very well then. However, I am one that you shouldn't toy with." Liege said, as one of his eyes lit up.

"I get it, Mr. Liege. You don't have to worry about a single thing. We're all buds now. Ciao." Malisha said. She then turned around to leave the Grimm to their activities. However, she some how tripped in spirit form and fell to the ground. "Kya!" she yelped. Everyone just stared at that with a blank expression. Malisha then picked herself off the floor and dusted herself off. "Oh dear. Forget you saw that. Please." Malisha said meekly, as she quickly ran back into the portal.

Lola then turned her attention to the confused Grimm. "She doesn't get embarrassed easily. When she does though, it changes her personality a tad bit. Later." Lola said, as she gestured her hand to the group.

"That was, interesting. Siren. You have some explaining to do." Liege said with a glaring look.

"Ok, ok! I'll talk!" Siren yelled.

(One explanation of Chapter 13 later)

"I see. Next time, instead of taking a long nap, report directly to me." Liege said.

"I'm sorry. Won't happen again. Promise." Siren said.

"Cross your heart?" Liege asked, leaning in.

"Definitely." Siren said, nodding her head furiously.

"Eh. Good enough for me. Rodney! You think you can work with this Dark Dust?" Liege asked.

"Are you kidding me!? With this mother load of Dark Dust, I'll be finished in no time! Now then, I shall begin my work." Rodney said. He then immediately began rushing around the laboratory.

Liege only nodded and walked away back to his room. Siren then approached her teammates. "One more thing. We have another assignment. Apparently, there have been fluctuations of high levels of spiritual area in this world. Liege wants us to investigate it. He wants to know if this is a threat to us." She said.

"Ah, well that sounds either boring or fun, depending on how it will turn out. So, where do we start?" Hidou asked.

"There have been areas of high spiritual energy levels. We can search for evidence there. Liege is also going to be giving us a couple of back-ups, just in case if things get dicey." Siren said.

"Ok. I'll send Jay to scout other areas." Shinrai said.

The three Grimm teens then went off in their search for the mysterious threat, not knowing it would lead to some unexpected encounters.

(The Next Day: Sunday: Emerald Hospital)

It was Sunday Morning, around 11:15 PM, and Ethan was currently checking out of the main lobby. "You're lucky your injuries weren't that serious, Mr. Hono. Also, please be more careful. You're the first person I've ever known to wind up back in the hospital in a single night." A nurse said.

"I've been through worse." Ethan said. As he began walking towards the exit, he saw Anna and Zack, with their spirits. He let out a sigh and decided to just deal with it. "Morning, Zackery. Morning, Annie. Morning RWBY and JNPR." Ethan said, in a nonchalant tone.

"It's Anna!" Anna yelled.

"Just tell me what you want." Ethan said.

Just then Lu immediately appeared from behind Ethan and smacked him on the head with her staff. "Stop being so rude! These folks came all the way here to check up on you! Honestly, it's a miracle that you have friends with that nasty attitude." Lu said.

Ethan only scowled at Lu, while Lu only replied back with a pouty face. They then realized that there was a group watching them, with dumbfounded looks.

"We, should probably do this elsewhere." Lu said.

"I agree." Ethan said.

The group then proceeded to move outside to the hospital's personal garden area, where people or patients take the time to relax and chill in this area. Right now, the group was sitting at one of the benches.

"So, you're team RWBY and team JNPR. We haven't met yet. Name's Lu. I'm also known as Card Ejector in the Duel Monsters game. Nice to meet you. To be honest, I'm surprise to see some teenagers who are the same size as me." Lu said.

"Please don't remind us." Weiss said, who looked a bit depressed.

"There's nothing wrong with being short. Although, I'm not one to talk. I don't really care about what others think about my height." Lu said

"Actually, we can access our normal forms through extra deck summoning methods." Jaune said.

"Oh. I guess that's why Ice Cream doesn't like being small." Lu said.

"Ice Cream!? Why are you calling me that!?" Weiss yelled.

"That's what Cavalier calls you." Lu said.

"My name is Weiss Schnee. Not a desert treat. Got it?" Weiss said.

"Yes, Ms. Schnee." Lu said, smiling.

Yang then leaned in closer to Lu. "For the record, a fun nickname we like to call her is Ice Princess." Yang said.

"You mean she's royalty? That's pretty neat." Lu said.

"Well, you could say something like that." Weiss said, feeling a bit happier.

Anna only chuckled. "Don't get full of yourself. Now then, lets get down to why we're here." She said.

"I suppose you're here about that strange duelist last night. Am I right?" Ethan asked.

"Yep." Zack replied.

Ethan only sighed and raised up his cap. "Look. It's nothing that you two should worry about. It's just some guy, who beat the living-."

"NO POTTY WORDS!" Lu yelled.

"I was going to say 'snot'. Anyways, it's highly clear that he is really strong, and I was…" Ethan paused for a moment, hesitant to say it. Lu then patted him on the back to comfort him. "…outclassed. But, regardless of that, it does not mean it has to concern you. You guys can go back to, I don't know, searching for Dark Dust crystals? Shouldn't you guys be doing that by now?" Ethan asked.

Everyone just exchanged glances with each other until Ruby spoke up. "Well, we don't exactly where to start, and according to the messages that Neos, sent us, he's also having some hard time finding evidence." She said, while checking her scroll.

"Yeah, the last couple of days have been just us getting to one another and trying to stay alive." Yang said.

Pyrrha then step forward to speak. "Aside from that, the reason why it concerns us is because that duelist already knew who we were. He also talked as if he already knew our history and our background." She said.

"Is that so? Friend of yours?" Ethan asked.

"No. Never met anyone like him before." Blake said.

"I'm sure I would remember a punch-able helmet like that." Yang said.

"The reason why we're here is to track him down. Maybe he has answers on what's going on around here, in both Remnant and Jewel City. I think this is our best bet." Anna said.

Ethan thought about it for a moment. Apparently, whoever this man was, he might be able to explain the reason for the Grimm coming here. "Alright, fine then. I guess we can go searching for him." Ethan said. He then took out a phone and dialed a person.

"Who are you calling?" Zack asked.

"An outside source. Now if you excuse me, I would like talk with her in private." Ethan said, as he began walking away.

Lu was in deep thought for a moment. "He must be talking with Sabrina. She's the only person who can actually tolerate his attitude. Everyone else just tries to keep it to small talk with Ethan." She said.

"I'll be okay with him, if he ever gets my name right." Anna said, crossing her arms.

"Come on, Anna. He's not that bad. 'Annie' is not a bad nickname. Heck. There this one kid back then in middle school who kept calling me Mr. Z. And I thought it was pretty neat." Zack said.

"This is different, Zack. I'm sure he calls me that to mess with me." Anna said.

"Don't worry, Anna. I'm sure Ethan will call you by your real name when he gets to know you better. After all, me and Weiss didn't exactly become friends in an instant. It takes time to get to know a person, and you have to put in an effort to know them. Instead of getting angry at the guy, try to understand him and what's goes on in his head. The first time you met him, you started off a bit shaky and your duel with him was a bit stressful, but if you keep saying that he's a jerk because he calls you some nickname you don't like, in the end, you're being the jerk for not trying to get him to call you by your real name. So, just roll along with it and just try to endure it. After all, no pain, no game. At least I think that quote works here." Ruby said.

After that, everyone had shocked looks. Nora only slow clapped. "What? Did I say something weird?" Ruby asked.

"Actually, Ruby, that was the wisest thing I've heard from you." Blake said.

"I'm shocked as well. I thought Ren was the only one capable of wowing my brain with words." Nora said, while Ren nodded in agreement.

"It was? I was just referring to my experience with Weiss. Once I got past my personal problems, I had a more open mind about her." Ruby explained.

"*sniff*. My baby sister is growing up." Yang said, with tears rolling down her face.

"Just shows how much she has learned and matured." Weiss said.

Everyone chuckled a little. "Thanks, Ruby. I'll try and get to understand Ethan a bit more." Anna said, scratching her head.

"Annie! Zackery! I've got good news." Ethan yelled, making his way back.

Anna's eye twitched at that moment. "I'll try, really, really hard. For you, Ruby." She said.

"Don't do it for me, Anna. Do it for yourself." Ruby said.

Anna only forced a smile on her face, as she turned to face Ethan. "From what I've been told from my source, is that this duelist has made multiple sightings in both the spirit world and the mortal world. Apparently, he's been scouring the lands finding pro duelists and dueling them with actual spiritual energy. He hasn't lost a single duel, and most of his victims end up burned and injured. Of course, he made some exceptions for other duelists, like me, but he defeated them with ease." Ethan said.

"He's like a predator; seeking out duelists to satisfy his thirst for victory." Pyrrha said.

"That sounds really morbid, Pyrrha." Jaune said.

"What's more is that we don't know his intentions here. But all we can say is that, well, he plays rough with other duelists. May I add he does not discriminate between duelists as well. He's an equal opportunist based on that." Ethan said.

Everyone only shot looks at him. "What?" he asked.

"Ethan. Joking in this situation isn't really the best idea." Lu said.

"I wasn't joking. I was stating facts." Ethan said.

"We really need to update your sense of feeling and telling humor." Lu said.

"I don't need a sense of humor. Jokes just ruin the mood and undermine situations." Ethan said. "As I was saying, if we leave this Red character unchecked, he may cause panic in both worlds." Ethan said.

"So, where do we start looking?" Zack asked.

"It's actually pretty easy. When I dueled him, he referred to his Red Dragon cards as forms. And it was a speaking habit. Call me crazy, but I think we're dealing with a duel spirit here. The actual, Red Dragon Archfiend." Ethan said, as everyone imagined a silhouette of Scarlight, with orange glowing eyes.

"A…duel spirt. That sounds, AWESOME!" Zack exclaimed.

"It's not awesome, Zack. This duel spirit could be a danger to us all." Anna said.

"Eh. Either way, this situation involves a dragon, so you know things are going to get intense." Zack said.

Anna and Zack then noticed that Ethan was now tapping his foot furiously, and his left eye was twitching a little. They thought it was best not to interrupt him again. "Red Dragon Archfiend is a powerful card, but that means it has a distinctive feature. Sabrina was able to pinpoint certain areas where he might be." Ethan then pulled out his tablet. "There are multiple areas where Red Dragon Archfiend was seen and aligned with injured duelists. However, I think I know the one place where he'll most likely be." Ethan said.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go show this Red guy how we do things in Remnant." Nora said, cracking her knuckles.

"Without, breaking his legs." Ren said.

"Fine." Nora said sounding disappointed.

(That Afternoon)

While the group kept walking towards their destination, Ethan kept walking a few paces behind Anna, Zack and their spirits, and was deep in thought. Lu then noticed this. "Hey, Ethan. Something else on your mind? It's not like you to be distracted before a mission." Lu said.

"You remember that night where we met that Victoria girl?" Ethan asked.

"Yeah. From what've heard, she's also Anna's older sister." Lu said.

"I'm was just thinking about our conversation the other night." Ethan said.

(Flashback to the Emerald Hospital, during the Tag Duel)

While Anna and Zack were dueling against Mia and Daniel, Victoria was walking down the hallways of the hospital with a worried look of her previous conversation with Daniel. She wasn't looking forward, as she then bumped into someone, and fell to the ground. Victoria then looked up to see, Ethan in a hospital gown, getting a bottle of water, with K and Lu next to him.

"I know you. Your Anna's friend, right?" Victoria asked.

"I think we're more of acquaintances. Is there something troubling you?" Ethan asked.

"Oh, you probably wouldn't believe me. It's just some crazy dream I have, with a whole bunch of duel monsters, and fighting people with dark eyes." Victoria said.

The last part caught Ethan's attention. "Tell me, did it happen to take place in a desert?" he asked.

Victoria was silent for a moment. "Y-yes it did. Do you know something? About my dream?" she asked.

"Tell me this first. Why are you concern about this? Does it involve your sister by any chance?" Ethan asked.

"I'm not really sure. But, I think it might involve team RWBY in some way. I'm just so confused right now." Victoria said.

"Sounds rough. Maybe all you need is some sleep. Your eyes have bags. And I think I see a couple stress wrinkles." Lu said, examining Victoria's face.

Victoria only looked up and stared directly at Lu with a blank expression. She then turned her attention to Ethan. "What is it that you know?" she asked, worried that she wouldn't like the answer.

"For starters, she was the reason why I ended up here in the first place." Ethan said.

"She?"

"Star Breaker Revenant – Ashley. A strong formidable opponent. She also had dark eyes, instead of white." Ethan said.

"You mean, a dark eye ball with a colored iris?" Victoria asked.

"Yes. That is exactly what I meant." Ethan said.

Lu nodded as well. "She was a bit overdramatic, and she might have a screw loose, but she was really strong. Ethan is a lucky man to survive that, and he's been through a lot of stuff that would break normal person." Lu said.

"Her clothing was similar to the fabric that Annie's spirits wear, and her weapons seemed to have similar transformation functions. All I can say is that she was dangerous, and still if I may add." Ethan said.

Victoria didn't know what to say at first for a while. Her dream was starting to become more real and the answers were starting to fall into place. "Thank you, Mr. Hono. Despite the dangers that this news brings, I think it clears up more of my doubts. Or maybe it creates more. Everything has been happening so fast. With mom and dad away, it's my responsibility to protect her. Yet, she's risking her life to protect others. Of course, helping others in need is a good thing, I'm just worried about losing her. Yet, I want her to choose her own path. What do you think I should do? Victoria asked, feeling conflicted within.

"Ms. Yuno. I believe that it's your choice of whether of what path she may take. Everyone can choose their own path in life, but sometimes it requires guidance. I wouldn't be alive right now if some friends didn't help me out." Ethan said, as he patted Lu on the back, causing her to smile warmly. "I guess what I'm trying to say, think about what you want for Annie. However, if you want, I'll try to look out for her." Ethan said.

Victoria only looked up at Ethan and pondered about his words. Ethan then began to walk, she had one more question for him. "Um, excuse me. But why do you keep calling my sister, Annie?" she asked.

"I don't know. I find it simpler for me to call her that." Ethan said, as he kept on walking away with Lu.

(Present Time)

"Why did you bring up that conversation again?" Lu asked.

"I just figured that almost ever bad situation that we're dealing with now involved with team RWBY in some way. The Dark Dust, the Grimm, and maybe this Red character. However, why does it tie in with Annie? Based on her sister's dreams, I can't help but feel that her sister's dream ties in with Annie's involvement with all this. By the way, where's K?" Ethan asked.

"Oh, he's at church right now." Lu said.

"Ah. I see. Anyways, we're here now." Ethan said.

The group then arrived at an old D-Wheel Factory that has been closed down for a while. Apparently, the company went out of business since it couldn't compete with other models. There was also a run downed Duel Runner Track. The area has been closed down for a long time, and for some reason no one has even tried to claim the area. Everyone felt a chilling vibe coming from the entrance of factory but proceeded in with their will. Ethan then put his special D-Tablet into weapon mode, and cut down the chains, opening up the door. Upon entering the factory, they found it that it was in better shape on the inside than it was on the outside. The foundations had better support. The floor was also clean, and the cracks were removed. The assembly line appeared to be polished and fixed. There were also statues that resembled Ancient Gear monsters. No noises were heard, but only the buzzing of ceiling lights. If it was nighttime, it would be even spookier. Elsewhere in the factory, the Grimm teen and Back-Ups also made their way there and were now exploring the complex.

"I wonder who our mystery person is." Shinrai said to himself while thinking.

"I hope we find him soon. We've been searching for this guy or, girl, ever since last night. I'm getting sick of this." Hidou complained.

"I'm just shocked that these three guys haven't talked at all." Siren said, examining the Grimm that accompany them. Through all their time, the extra Grimm haven't talked at all. "It's kind of creeping out." She said, as the three Grimm didn't respond at all. "Hey, Shinrai. What emotions are these guys, feeling?"

Shinrai then walked up to the three extras and stared at their faces. "They are, complicated. Sort of, I don't know really. It's hard to tell. It's like they're accepting something." Shinrai said.

Hidou then noticed something. "Hey! Enough chatting. They're other people here." He said.

Siren and Shinrai immediately stopped talking and then regrouped with Hidou and placed their masks on. At the same time, Anna, Zack, Ethan, RWBY and JNPR were also making there way through the factory. The two groups were then approaching each other, unaware of each other's presence. However, from above, another person was watching from above. Just then, the two group turned the corner and saw each other. There was a brief moment of silence and blank stares between the two groups. They all took deep breaths before screaming. The only ones that didn't scream were Ethan and Lu on the duelist side, and Shinrai, Jay and the three extra Grimm.

"GRIMM!"

"HUNTSMEN!"

Everyone then armed themselves with duel disk staring each other down. Jay immediately transformed attaching to Shinrai's arm, and Hidou transformed his arm. The stare down went on for a while. The serious moment was immediately over when Hidou began making grunting noises and held his arm in pain.

"Idiot." Siren/Curse said while face-palming.

"Give me a moment. Ok. Better." Hidou/Ravage said, as he clenched his fist multiple times.

"I know you three. You try to kill me that one night." Ethan said.

"It couldn't be helped. You had to be silenced." Siren/Curse said.

"Why are you guys here?" Zack asked.

"We're tracking down a strange being. Is that why you are here?" Shinrai/Phantom said.

"Yeah! That's exactly why!" Zack yelled.

Weiss only shot a look at him but didn't really know what to say. She then sensed something from the female Grimm's bracelet. "Anna. Be careful. Something is off with the female Grimm." She said.

Blake nodded in agreement. "I can sense it too. It feels sinister." She said.

"I'll keep that in mind. They do seem a bit more dangerous than other Grimm we've faced." Anna said.

"Don't worry about the details, Anna. All we have to do is win!" Ruby yelled.

"Yeah! Ren?" Nora asked.

"Yes, Nora. You can break them." Ren said.

"Yes!"

"Only if Zack summons you."

"I can work with that."

"Don't get your hopes up. We're going to crush you good." Ravage/Hidou said.

"I could say the same thing to you." Jaune said.

"Don't get too cocky, Jaune." Pyrrha said.

The duelists, both enemy and ally stared each other down. Just before they were about to draw their cards, they heard the sound of laughter. It sounded mockingly. Ethan recognized the laugh. Everyone then looked up to see a man in a red trench coat, and now had a dragon skull on his head, standing in the CEO office building. Right now, he was clapping, sounding amused at what he was seeing. "Ah, what a surprise this is. Both parties, humans and Grimm managed find me with ease." Red said.

"To be fair, my friend did say you had a significant spirit signature." Ethan said.

"Whatever. Now then, here's the thing. I've been living here for a while, and I've grown little bit attached to it. So, I'm going to ask nicely, and once. Leave, or be killed." Red said in a polite, but yet menacing tone.

"As if. I always wanted to say these words. Get him boys!" Hidou yelled, as the three extra-Grimm began jumping on metal and hardware to reach Red.

Red only shook his head and sigh. "Don't say I didn't warnede you." He said, as he then snapped his fingers. Suddenly, the still Ancient Gear statues' eyes lit up and began to move on their own. Anna and Zack were stunned that the statues were actual monsters. More shocking to Zack since Anna seen real life duel monsters already. Ethan, RWBY and JNPR got in front of the two duelists and drew their weapons in case if the statues came towards them, as they slowly backed off. Lu staring at the Ancient Gear monsters in awe, mesmerized of how fearsome they looked. Soon, Ancient Gear Knights and Soldiers began following the Grimm, and engaged in combat. However, when the Grimm fought back, it was the only chance they got, one of the knights, crouched down, and impaled the first with his spear. A soldier quickly maneuvered around the second Grimm and placed his gun at his back. Before the Grimm could respond, the trigger had been pulled. As for the final Grimm, an Ancient Gear Knight jumped into the air, and impaled him through the head. Anna only clasped her mouth to prevent herself from screaming. Zack didn't know whether to be mortified or be thrilled. The killing was so real, but at the same time it looked like an action movie to him. RWBY and JNPR fared better, since they were used to killing Grimm on a daily basis, but still found it a bit brutal. Ethan was now supporting Lu, who had fainted recently after seeing the mortifying scene. Hidou, and Siren were shocked as well, seeing their comrades slayed in battle. Shinrai was only focused on the Ancient Gear monsters that were slowly surrounding them. Just then, an Ancient Gear Knight lunged towards him, but Shinrai leaped into the air and jumped on the Ancient Gear Knight's back. He then jumped towards the other Ancient Gear Soldier, and Jay then flew off his arm and flew directly into the Soldier's eye clouding his vision. Shinrai then delivered a knee strike to the neck, decapitating the Solider. After Shinrai landed on the ground, the Soldier's body began walking around, searching for it's head.

"We need to leave. Now." Shinrai said.

"Are you kidding me, Phantom!? We're not going to let some dragon mask…" Hidou/Ravage didn't get to finish his sentence as Shinrai then punched him in the gut.

"I said, we're leaving. Immediately." Shinrai said, as Hidou collapsed in his arms. He then turned to his head to Siren/Curse. She hesitated for a moment, but eventually agreed. The two remaining Grimm then proceeded to make their retreat but was immediately blocked by the two remaining knights.

Red then began chuckling. "I gave you a warning, but you didn't listen. And you made a mess of this place. There are no take backs in my establishment. Your lives end here." Red said.

The knights then thrusted their lances forward, but before they could land the final blow, their attacks were blocked by total of four swords. In front of the knights, was dark spirit wielding two swords, and another two that hovered beside her. Everyone including Red, was stunned to see a spirit filled with dark energy. It's obvious that this Dark Spirit is Saika, but no one else knew her name. Saika then threw back the Ancient gear knights, and then jumped into the air, as the two hovering swords attached to her feet, as she then began fighting both Ancient Gear Knights, with both her hands and foot clamps wielding swords.

"Aren't you two suppose to be getting away from the big bad Red?" Saika asked.

"Big bad Red?" Red questioned.

Shinrai and Siren only nodded as they proceeded to escape. Saika then began fighting harder than ever, as the Knights could only parry her rapid strikes from multiple swords. Saika kept exchanging swords between her feet and hands, changing her combat style randomly. On the sidelines, everyone kept on watching the fast pace swordswomen. Ethan on the other hand, clenched his hands, and rushed into the battle.

"Ethan! What the heck are you doing!?" Anna yelled.

"Fighting!" he yelled, as he switched his D-Tablet to blade mode. Ethan then jumped into the air, and then brought down his blade. Saika almost didn't noticed it, but she saw Ethan's reflection in the Ancient Gear Knight's armor. She then raised her foot to parry to the strike.

Soon, it became a 3v1 fight, with Ethan and the knights surrounding Saika, as the Revenant held off all her foes. Since the knights used Lances, it was harder for Saika to land a blow. Just then, Ethan jumped back and threw his sword at Saika, who immediately blocked it. However, she failed to notice that Ethan's fist was coming directly for her face, as he then punched her hard, causing her to fly into the air. Saika immediately recovered and landed on the ground.

"He actually got me. Too bad my powers are limited in this form. Oh well. My job here is done anyway. Farewell." Saika said, as she then faded away. Ethan only charged forward and attempted to stab the Dark Spirit, but only struck air, as all traces of her disappeared.

"Oooooooohh. You almost had her. Just by this much." Red said, as he pinched his fingers together.

Ethan only stared at Red with piercing eyes. "Are you going have your Metal Men kick us out now?" he asked.

Red thought about it for a moment. "I was considering it, but unlike the other group that came in here and were just plain rude, you guys actually took my advice and didn't do anything stupid. So, as thanks, I'll let you stay around and chat for a while." He said. Red then opened the window of the CEO office and jumped down to the ground. Just then, a throne like chair came rolling out at the same time. Red then landed in the throne and sat in a regal like position. Everyone then approached him, being cautious of him. At the same time, Ancient Gear Knights also came closer to him to guard him. As for the Soldier, he was still wandering around looking for his head. "So, lets talk."

"How about we start by telling us about yourself?" Blake asked.

"Hmmmm. I suppose so. As you all know, I'm Red. Also, I think your friend here connected the dots about me from our last duel." He said.

"Yeah. You're a duel spirit, from the Spirit World." Ethan said.

"Yes and no. It's bit a complicated. Allow me to explain. I'm Red, but at the same time, I'm not the actual Red." Red said.

"I'm confused." Zack said.

"He's saying that there's two of him, and he's the fake." Weiss said.

"She's right. But I prefer the term Avatar. As of now, I'm from another world dimension. Confusing, isn't it." Red said.

"Uh huh. My brain having a hard time processing this." Jaune said.

"Nora shut down seconds ago." Ren said, as he referred to Nora, who was in a dizzied state.

"Still, what makes you want to come to this dimension? Sightseeing?" Anna asked.

"I've been doing that during my free time, but that isn't the reason why I'm here. The fact is that my true self-created and sent me here to gather resources for my allies. So, far things have been going smoothly. Your city is quite famous for it's gems and jewels, as it states in the pamphlet." Red said.

"What's it for?" Ruby asked.

Red only chuckled a little. "Believe me. What you're dealing with, is nothing compare to what's happening in my world." He said.

"Try us." Zack said, with a confident grin.

"Zack. Don't provoke the Red Dragon Spirit that could burn you to ashes with a snap his fingers." Anna said.

"True. We don't want to die." Pyrrha said.

Red didn't really seem to mind nor care about the little conversation. He only appeared to be thinking. "Very well then. Although, I don't trust you guys enough, so I lay out some minor details. Deal?" he asked.

"Better than nothing. Tell us your tale." Anna said.

"Alright then. Unlike your little quiet invasion that you guys are dealing with, my comrades and I are in a war. Your typical light vs dark clash. In short, a lot of us are risking their lives to fight a war they not come back from. Our enemies are slowly growing stronger, but them winning this war? Over my dead body. My men, or real Red's men, are risking their lives every single day. Knowing they are walking into a fight they may never return from. Some of us are duelists. The Darkness Duels that you play in are nothing but a warm up, compared to the duels we fight in. Once you step in, there's no going back. Still, while it all sounds grim and all, it doesn't mean we've given up hope of winning. Heck, we are going to win this war, and I will bet my soul that we'll win. Right now, the fights still going on right now, while we're talking here. Here I am working to get supplies to even the odds. And that's all I can say to you people." Red said.

Everyone was silent for a moment. It was a lot to take in. War. Light vs Dark. And Death. Ethan and Lu took off their hats for a moment to pay their respects. Everyone else had mourning expressions.

"Hey! Just because I made the situation in my world sound disastrous, doesn't mean you should feel sad. Try to pray and wish for the success of all of the Warriors that are fighting right now. Especially the eight of you." Red said, referring to RWBY and JNPR.

"What do you mean by that? It almost sounds like you already know us." Ren questioned.

"That's for me to know and for you to keep your noisy noses out." Red said.

Ruby was next to speak up. "Um…Mr. Red? Do you know anything about the invading Grimm and why they're here?" she asked.

"Sorry, Mr. Rose. But I'm afraid that's where my knowledge ends. I'm only here to assist my comrades in another dimension. I'm still a bit new to this world, and still learning more about the spirit world. Sadly, I can't help you with your problem." Red said.

"Oh. It's fine." Ruby said.

Anna realized that Red was here on his own agenda and that talking with him wouldn't help their situation, and thought it was best to leave him alone. However, she then realized of what he previously done yesterday. "Despite saying that you're here on your mission, care to explain why you're burning random duelists?" she asked. Red then glared at her, sending a chill down her spine. "I-If you don't mind. Did you have a good reason?" Anna stammered, a bit frightened.

"To answer your question, those duelists couldn't take the pressure." Red said.

At that moment, fear and curiosity became replaced with growing temper. "What do you mean, couldn't take the pressure?" Anna asked, sounding a bit more aggressive.

Red only shook his head, as if he was explaining the concept to little kids. "Look. I come from a dimension that duels way more intensely than the duelists that live here. However, I decided to give them a chance. Yet in the end, I was dissatisfied with every single duelist I came across. As for Mr. Hono, it was one of the better duels I had so far, but he didn't have much competition. The bar was set pretty low in that case." He said, as he leaned back in his chair.

"So, that's it? Are you saying the duelist here are weak because they have different standards of dueling?" Blake asked, with hints of anger.

"Look here, Blake. I didn't come here with the mindset that everyone was a weakling. I gave everyone a fair chance to prove that they were just as strong as I hope. However, you could say that didn't pleased me." Red said.

Ethan only glared at Red but spoke in a polite tone. "I'll admit, your dueling skills are far beyond my own, and your deck responds well to you, but to injure others severely is taking it a little too far, even if they don't meet your expectations. Some of the people that were sent to the hospital were actually honest and kind duelists who wanted nothing more than a peaceful life. I know because I talked to them last night." He said.

"Yeah! You can believe him! I was there with him. I even took a picture for proof." Lu said. Ethan disregarded the last statement.

"So, what does it matter to me? It doesn't matter whether a duelist is kind or cruel. What really matters is if they can hold their ground on the field. From where I come from, duelist duel with all there might, and fight till the bitter end. You should know, Anna and Zack. You may have witness a fraction of the darkness barrier's powers, but you do understand the consequences of loss. For me, whenever I duel, I always have to duel aggressively, because it's the simple ones that go off first. Now then, that's enough talk. Leave now, and I'll won't bother you again. I suggest you quit trying to convince me with your words. My mind is made up." Red said.

Anna was silent for a moment. She didn't like the sound of someone telling her to give up. On the other hand, Red did have a point. The Duels that Anna participate in will be no joke. The thought boiled in Anna's mind as she clenched her fists. While Red's words may be true, she couldn't stomach the thought of Red just hurting others because of his own philosophy. Anna knew what she was about to do may seem stupid, but she didn't listen to her head, but to her gut instead. She gulped out of nervousness and approached Red.

"Red. I don't know what's it's like for you. To live in a world where your live is constantly at risk every single day. For me, my experience doesn't come close to what you've witness in your life. I don't know a damn thing about fighting in a war, nor the pain that you feel from it. Yeah sure. My life may be in constant risk because I'm partnered up with team RWBY, but it was my choice to help, because I can help them. Also, this world is filled with many duelists who just want to duel for fun. For laughs. Or even to settle petty arguments. That may seem irrelevant to you, but to us, that's life for some of us living her. Me. I want to become a Professional Duelist, and duel without a care." Anna said, as she smiled for a bit. That smiled instantly disappeared as Anna mustered every fiber in her body. "T-That's why…I can't let you go around hurting others just because you have a different ideal! Duel me, Red!" Anna yelled, as she held up her deck.

Everyone was shocked from hearing Anna's challenge. Red remain still in his throne and only stared at Anna. On the outside, Anna had a determined look. On the inside, she was freaking out. "Oh crap. I can't tell if I made him angry. I hope I don't get impaled for speaking out like that. I don't want to die like that." Anna said, as she tried not to imagine anything pointy or sharp entering her body.

Red was only silent for a moment. Normally he would laugh, but the silence continued for a while. He then rose from his throne and walked towards Anna. Anna kept her brave face on till the very end, while wiping away some sweat. Tensions were high, that everyone could literally feel the suspense. Red finally then spoke. "You're quite gritty, Yuno. I admire that in a duelist. Plus, I'm actually curious of your Huntress deck and the strength of team RWBY. Very well then. I accept your challenge." Red said, smiling.

"Y-You're are? I mean, very well then." Anna said, raising her confidence.

"However, I will only accept it under the following conditions." Red said.

"And what would that be?" Anna asked.

"It has to be in a Turbo Duel." Red replied.

"What!? But I don't have a Duel Runner, nor a Turbo Deck. I'm not even at the right age to even own a license." Anna said.

"Yeah! That's not fair for Anna!" Ruby yelled.

"Don't worry. I'll make arrangements that you'll be able to Turbo Duel. As for your deck, here." Red then held up his hand, as several Duel Monsters cards were formed out of thin air. "These here are Speed Spells. I'll give you at least an hour to prepare. Construct your deck with these cards. Come and meet me outside the track when you're done. If it's not within the time limit, I'll consider it a loss." Red said, as he walked away.

(15 minutes later)

Anna was now rearranging the spells in her deck, and some extra cards she brought along. Right now, it was quite tricky for her to come up with a deck solution.

"You know, what you did back there was pretty…" Weiss was about say but was interrupted by Anna.

"I know. It was really, really stupid." Anna said, rolling her eyes.

"Let me finish. I was going to admirable. But stupid as well." Weiss finished.

"I'm just surprised you actually shouted in his face." Yang said.

"I-I really did?" Anna asked.

"Yup. You're up in face. It looked really suicidal." Blake said.

"I thought you quite epic. The way you stormed up to him with all that fury." Zack said.

"Yeah. It almost looked like you were going to punch him in the face." Ruby said, smiling as well.

"That would probably lead to her death." Jaune said.

"No doubt about it. She wouldn't be standing right now, if it were a melee fight." Pyrrha said.

"Please stop talking about that. I'm actually worry about dying here." Anna said, who was looking a bit gloomy.

"Your fault for picking a fight with him, Annie." Ethan said. Anna only turned away and focused on her deck, deciding which cards to use. "However, what Red said about you, being gritty, he was right. The thought of standing up to him never crossed my mind." He said.

"Someone has too. Red may be from another world, but he doesn't have to hurt others to get stronger. Sure, seeking challenges is a one of the goals of a duelist, but that doesn't mean you have to hurt others to satisfy yourself. The Dueling I stand for brings people closer together." Anna said.

"Even so, have you ever participated in a Turbo Duel before, Anna?" Ruby asked.

"Well, I did once. In a simulator. Although it never felt real. Just a video game of duel monster that you play while sitting in a chair. I never actually experienced what's it's like on an actual Duel Course." Anna said.

Blake only shook her head. "This is on so many levels of danger. I'm worried that a helmet isn't enough to keep you alive." She said.

"To be honest, Blake. I'm worried that you might be right." Anna said.

"Don't take it the wrong way, Anna. Just be more careful with this duel." Blake said.

Anna only nodded, as she went back to editing her deck. "There's another reason why I want to do this. I want to know what kind of duelist Red is. Like you said, Ruby. You have to take the time to understand a person to truly know what drives them." She said.

Ruby smiled in agreement, as both she and her teammates went to editing the deck together, with some help from, Ethan, Zack, Lu and JNPR.

(30 Minutes Later)

While Anna and RWBY are dueling Red, everyone else waited inside the building. They were going to watch the duel via monitors. Anna had just finished making her new Turbo Deck but was unsure of how it would work as a whole. She never been in a Turbo duel before, which made her nervous. Ruby seemed to noticed this and went hovered next to Anna.

"Anna. You're worrying too much. Just duel like you always do. Only on a motorcycle this time. No worries." Ruby said.

"Think of it as riding a bicycle, with a really heavy engine." Yang said.

"I don't think this is the best pep talk. If you ask me, I think we're making her more nervous." Weiss said.

"It's ok, Weiss. It's alright. We'll be fine. Just as long as I don't drop any cards." Anna said.

"Hey, Anna. Has anyone ever swallowed a bug while Turbo Dueling?" Ruby asked.

"Ruby! That's a gross question! Don't give Anna more to worry about." Weiss said, as her face slightly turned green.

Everyone else chuckled a little, and Weiss joined in after cooling off. They then saw Red next to a gigantic wheel like runner. We all know it's the Wheel of Fortune. I mean, what else would Red Dragon Archfiend use for Turbo Duels? A standard Duel Runner? As if. The two-duelist met each other and stood face to face.

"Good. You're actually going through with this. Now, as for my end of the deal, allow me to fix your little problem." Red said, as he pressed a button on his runner. Suddenly, something in the distance came speeding out from the nearby garage. What came out was a magenta electronic Skateboard. With two large wheels that kept it from tipping over, and two small boosters at the back of it. Anna and RWBY immediately jumped back as the Skateboard zoomed by their feet. It then performed a U-turn and positioned itself next to Anna's feet. "I suppose you know what this is Yuno, but your spirits are clearly in the dark. Allow me to explain. This here is a duel board. Made for a younger generation of Turbo Duelers. Unlike normal D-Wheels, these machines don't require a license. You aren't allowed to ride these in public, but only in a Duel Course. They aren't as powerful as D-wheels, so they aren't as fast. That's all up to the boarder. Than again these things were made just so the little kids can get a taste of what the duels feel like in the road. Think you can handle it, Yuno?" Red asked.

Anna didn't know what to say. However, she quickly made up her mind. "I believe I am." She said.

"Then what are you waiting for? Put on your protective gear. There right there move by that bench. I figure you would like the Magenta color." Red said.

While Anna was gearing up, a question came to Yang. "Anna? If this kind of tech exists, how come you don't have it in the first place?" she asked.

"Oh, Duel Boards are quite expensive. My parents just told me to save money by keeping my feet on the ground when I duel." Anna said.

"Sounds reasonable enough. Does Zack have one?" Weiss asked.

"Nope. His mom is really strict with saving money. She told Zack if he ever wanted one, he would have to use his own money." Anna said.

"I can't blame her. I mean, there is a risk of a concussion with these things." Weiss said.

"Which is why Anna needs this. Safety first." Ruby said, knocking on Anna's helmet. Anna chuckled at that.

Anna was now wearing a Magenta helmet with a D-Visor, along with some shoulder and knee pads. She also had dueling gloves on from hand protection, and she also had her duel disk on as well. She then proceeded to the starting line, where Red was waiting, as she placed her feet into the locking mechanisms to anchor her in place.

"Took you long enough. Now then, to be fair since I have more experience in this area, I'll turn off my Autopilot, and enable yours. You can switch it off if you like." Red said.

"I think we'll keep it on. This is my first Turbo Duel after all. I need all the help I can get." Anna said. She felt nervous but hide it well.

"Good. That's what I like to hear. Oh, and don't worry about any outsiders watching. I've taken care of that issue. Now let's kick things into overdrive! Activating the Speed World 2 Field Spell!" Red yelled as he pressed another button on his runner.

DUEL MODE ENGAGED
AUTO PILOT STANDING BY/DEACTIVATED

Both the D-Wheel and D-Board then emitted a pulse of energy, as the Duel Course was activated. The countdown then appeared for both duelist who ready to duel.

"One more thing. First person to take the corner gets the go first." Red said.

Anna only nodded as she only focused on the road. Team RWBY Was focused as well, keeping an eye out on things. The timer then went off, as both Duelist floored it. Red stepped on his pedal, while Anna shifted her feet to maneuver her D-Board. Unfortunately for her, she started to move off balance as she began waving her arms up and down, to prevent herself from falling. She managed to maintain balance and took a deep breath. However, she then noticed that Red took the first turn meaning he was going first. Both Duelist then drew their cards and were ready to duel.

"RIDING DUEL! ACCELERATION!"

Turn 1: Red
Anna Yuno: 4000LP vs Red: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 5 vs Red Hand: 5
Anna Yuno SP: 0 vs Red SP: 0

"Looks like I'm up first! I'll start it off by summoning my Archfiend Interceptor!" Red yelled, as the Football Fiend appeared once more to the field.

Archfiend Interceptor
[LV: 4] [Attribute: Dark]
[Fiend/Effect]
[ATK: 1400] [DEF: 1600]

"I'll play two cards face-down on my field and end my turn." Red said.

Turn 2: Anna
Anna Yuno: 4000LP vs Red: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 5+1 vs Red Hand: 2
Anna Yuno SP: 0+1 vs Red: 0+1

"My turn, I dra…" Anna board then started to serve a bit, causing her to tilt the left. And began circling her arms in a rapid motion to try and get herself balanced. However, she then dropped the card she just drew. Anna gasped out of fear of what just happened. As for Blake, she immediately took action, and jumped for the card. She then flung out her Gambol Shroud and Yang grabbed it immediately. Blake was then able to grab the card Anna dropped, and Yang pulled her back to safety.

"You dropped this." Blake said, handing the card back Anna.

"T-thanks. I owe you one." Anna said.

"Just focus on your duel and surroundings. Although you're on autopilot mode, that doesn't mean you shouldn't be concern about your balance." Blake said.

Anna only nodded and kept a secure grip on her cards now. "As I was saying, it my turn now. Since I control no other monsters, I can special summon RWBY Soul: Ruby Rose from my hand." Anna declared.

Anna Yuno SP: 0 + 1 = 1

Red SP: 0 + 1 = 1

"Leave it to me, Anna! Let's win this match." Ruby said, as she began flying next to Anna. "Whoa. This is pretty neat! It actually feels like I'm flying." She said.

RWBY Soul: Ruby Rose
[LV: 3] [Attribute: Wind]
[Warrior/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 1400] [DEF: 900]

"Next, from my hand, I summon Necro Huntress – Muerta, in attack mode!" Anna declared, as the Necromancer appeared next Anna, hovering along side the D-Board.

Necro Huntress – Muerta
[LV: 4] [Attribute: Dark]
[Spellcaster/Effect]
[ATK: 1600] [DEF: 1700]

"Now I tune Level 3 RWBY Soul: Ruby Rose, with Level 4 Necro Huntress Muerta!" Anna yelled. Ruby then turned into three green rings and Muerta entered the Rings in a vertical motion, as she then turned into four stars. "Warrior of Dread! Dance within the night and move as swift as the wind! I Synchro Summon! Reveal yourself to us! Dread Battler Huntress – Selena!" Anna chanted.

3 + 4 = 7

Dread Battler Huntress – Selena
[LV: 7] [Attribute: Dark]
[Beast-Warrior/Synchro/Effect]
[ATK: 2600] [DEF: 1600]

From the flash of light, Selena appeared next Anna, as she hovered alongside her. She then drew her sword and positioned herself in a combat pose.

Ruby then came next to Anna as an astral spirit. "Hey! How come you didn't summon me?" she asked, sounding a bit sad.

"Selena is immune to card effects that would destroy her. The Red Dragon Archfiend monsters are famous for that. So, in order to win, we need to endure Red's attacks and effects, and strike whenever we can." Anna explained.

"Alright. I trust you, Anna." Ruby said, as she faded away to conserve her energy.

Anna only nodded and turned her attention back to the duel. "Due to Ruby's tuner effect, Selena gains 300 extra attack points till the end of this turn. Selena! Take out, Archfiend Interceptor! Killing Edge!" Anna yelled.

Dread Battler Huntress – Selena: 2600ATK + 300ATK = 2900ATK

"Archfiend Interceptor's effect activates! Whenever you declare an attack, Archfiend Interceptor deals you 500 points of damage!" Red yelled.

Archfiend Interceptor used two of his right hands, to generate a fireball between them. He then served the fireball and struck Anna with it. Anna could feel the actual fire of the attack, as she served a bit. If it weren't for the auto-pilot, she might have fallen off. Selena then jumped out of the flames and then dived towards, Archfiend Interceptor and struck him with one single sword swing. The football fiend then exploded, damaging Red just a bit.

Red: 4000LP – 1500LP = 2500LP

Anna Yuno: 4000LP – 500LP = 3500LP

"I'll set two cards face-down and end my turn." Anna said.

Dread Battler Huntress – Selena: 2900ATK – 300ATK = 2600ATK

Turn 3: Red
Anna Yuno: 3500LP vs Red: 2500LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 2 vs Red Hand: 2+1
Anna Yuno SP: 1+1 vs Red SP: 1+1

"Here I go. This where the duel gets intense. Draw!" Red yelled.

Anna Yuno SP: 1 + 1 = 2

Red SP: 1 + 1 = 2

"I play my face-down! Powerful Rebirth! Return to my field Interceptor Archfiend!" Red yelled.

Powerful Rebirth
[Trap: Continuous]

Interceptor Archfiend: 1400ATK + 100ATK = 1500ATK

LV 4 + LV 1 = LV 5

"This is the same strategy he used against Ethan. His ace monster is coming out." Weiss said.

"How very observant of you, Ms. Schnee. But this might be a little bit different for you, I summon the Tuner Monster Trust Guardian from my hand." Red declared.

Trust Guardian
[LV: 3] [Attribute: Light]
[Fairy/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 0] [DEF: 800]

Next to red, a little angel with pink wings appeared alongside him. He had two brown eyes, a blue robe and purple hat with wings on it. He also had a determined look on his face.

"Something is off. Unlike most of his tuners, something is different about this one. And I'm not just saying that just because it isn't one of those Resonator monsters." Yang said.

"True. It gives off a warm vibe of energy. Almost feels friendly, which is a big contrast from Red's character." Blake said.

"Well, Red does care about his friends. It's just he's being too violent to the duelists living here. Either way, that means he's going to be summoning his ace." Anna said.

Red only smirked. "Now I tune Level 3 Trust Guardian, with my Level 5 Archfiend Interceptor!" Red yelled. Trust Guardian then flew high into the air, as he then turned into three rings. Archfiend Interceptor then followed up by entering rings, as he then turned into five stars. "The ruler's heartbeats will now file through here! Take witness to its creation-shaking power! I Synchro Summon! My very soul, Red Dragon Archfiend!" Red yelled, as he played a new version of his ace.

3 + 5 = 8

Red Dragon Archfiend
[LV: 8] [Attribute: Dark]
[Dragon/Synchro/Effect]
[ATK: 3000] [DEF: 2000]

A pillar of light then descended from the sky, as it then crashed down on the ground. An inferno then began to swirl around it, as two orange eyes glistened within. The light then dispersed to reveal a younger Red Dragon Archfiend in perfect shape, with no scars. Its wings were the color of Dark Crimson, with gray sharp claws. Its horns are shorter and its tail was had a sharp dagger shape at the end. Its teeth were also crimson red. The dragon then let out a mighty roar, as it flew alongside Red's runner, ready for battle.

"It's not Scarlight. That's an older version of the Red Dragon Archfiend card." Anna said, shocked to see the new card.

"I felt like going for a classic. Now then, time wage my attack and deal some damage. But before I do, I play my other face-down. Metalmorph! By equipping this card to Red Dragon Archfiend, not only will he gain 300 attack and defense points, but whenever he attacks any one of your monsters, he gains half of that monster's attack strength during damage calculation. Red Dragon Archfiend! Attack Dread Battler Huntress – Selena! Absolute Power Force!" Red yelled.

Metalmorph
[Trap: Normal]

Red Dragon Archfiend: 3000ATK + 300ATK = 3300ATK
2000DEF + 300DEF = 2300DEF

Red Dragon Archfiend was then equipped with a metal coating. He then turned around to face Selena, as he reared back his right palm and engulfed it in flames. The dragon then sent his palm forward towards Selena, who faced the attack head on.

"I activate two of my face-downs! The first one is Huntress Aura! Now none of my Huntress monsters can't be destroyed until the end of this turn. My second trap is a new one. Huntress Battle Blast! As long as this card is on the field, it'll blast you for 200 points of damage whenever a Huntress Synchro monster battles an opposing monster with 2000 or more attack points. Don't forget, since Selena is battling as well, your dragon loses 700 attack points. So, the damage I take is reduced." Anna said, as both of her traps cards activated.

Huntress Aura
[Trap: Normal]

Huntress Battle Blast
[Trap: Continuous]

Huntress Battle Blast showed Medusa firing a round from her sniper rifle, while Selena and Jinoga rushing into battle. The card then fired a blast of energy damaging Red, causing him to grunt a bit. Selena then threw several shuriken towards Red Dragon Archfiend, chipping his armor a bit. The armor began to react with the fire, increasing the dragon's striking power. Selena was able to block the flaming fist of the dragon, but Anna could feel the damage, as her D-Board began serve around a little. Anna kneeled down and grabbed the board with her free hand and tried to balance it. She slowly rose up and took a deep breath.

Red: 2500LP – 200LP = 2300LP

Red Dragon Archfiend: 3300ATK + 1300ATK – 700ATK = 3900ATK

Anna Yuno: 3500LP – 1300LP = 2200LP

Red then began to pull ahead of Anna, as he increased the gap between them. "Don't fall behind just yet Anna. This is only the appetizer. You have yet to have the main course of this duel. I'll set two card face-down and end my turn. Now give it your all!" he yelled.

Turn 4: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 2200LP vs Red: 2300LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 2+1 vs Red: 0
Anna Yuno SP: 2+1 vs Red: 2+1

"I'll catch up to you! Just wait and see! Draw!" Anna yelled.

Anna Yuno SP: 2 + 1 = 3
Red SP: 2 + 1 = 3

"I summon Gear Saw Huntress – Serra to my field in attack mode!" Anna yelled.

Gear Saw Huntress – Serra
[LV: 3] [Attribute: Earth]
[Warrior/Effect]
[ATK: 1700] [DEF: 1200]

A portal then appeared next to Anna, as female warrior emerged. Serra wore a gray metallic armor vest with blue accents, along with armored leggings. There was also a battery canister on her back which seemed to be powering her entire armor. She also wore metal boots, with amped hydraulics. She had two gray eyes, her brown hair was tied up in a pony tail, and there was a blue headband on her head. On her arms, are a chainsaw on each armor with blue outlining. There was also chainsaw technology on her feet as well. The saws then began moving as she spun around a bit, showing her ferocity to fight.

"Whenever I normal summon Serra, I can then normal summon one Huntress or RWBY Soul monster in addition to my normal summon. I normal summon RWBY Soul: Blake Belladonna!" Anna yelled, playing Blake's card.

"Leave it to me." Blake said, as she entered the field. She thought it was also pretty neat to hover in a Turbo Duel.

RWBY Soul – Blake Belladonna
[LV: 2] [Attribute: Dark]
[Beast-Warrior/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 900] [DEF: 1500]

"Now I tune Level 2 Blake with Level 3 Serra!" Anna yelled. Blake then soared in the air, and turned into two green rings. Blake then soared into the sky, as she turned into two green rings. Serra quickly followed as she revved up her chainsaws and entered the rings, becoming three stars in the process. "Descend the Black Beast! Fight to protect the world from cruel tyranny! I Synchro Summon! Arise, Black Shadow Huntress – Blake Belladonna!" Anna chanted

2 + 3 = 5

Black Shadow Huntress – Blake Belladonna
[LV: 5] [Attribute: Dark]
[Beast-Warrior/Synchro/Effect]
[ATK: 1900] [DEF: 2400]

Blake the emerged from the pillar of light and hovered alongside, Selena, as she drew her Gambol Shroud. "Since I Synchro Summoned a Huntress monster using Blake's tuner form as material, I can summon a Black Shadow Token to my field in defense mode. Alright, Blake! Go and attack Red Dragon Archfiend!" Anna declared.

"I'm on it! Battle Blast will also deal Red 200 extra points of damage." Blake said, as she jumped into the air. Anna's trap then fired a blast of energy at Red's runner, grazing him again. As for the battle. Blake was attacking Red Dragon Archfiend by firing multiple bullets at him, while the Dragon in turn, kept swiping at her with burning claws. At one instance, Red managed to land a hit on her. However, it was only a fake, as the real Blake began to tied down the Dragon, by the arm.

"Just because you're a mighty dragon, doesn't mean you're unbeatable!" Blake said, as she furiously pulled down the dragon with her Gambol Shroud.

Black Shadow Huntress – Blake Belladonna (Token)
[LV: 4] [Attribute: Dark]
[Beast-Warrior/Effect]
[ATK: 950] [DEF: 1200]

Red: 2300LP – 200LP = 2100LP

"With Blake's effect, if she battle's a monster with 2000 or more attack points, she equips to the monster instead. Selena! Attack Red Dragon Archfiend! Since Blake is also equipped to your monster, your dragon's attack power is lowered by half of Selena's attack points bringing it down to 2000 attack points. But why stop there, when I can lower it even more with Selena's effect?" Anna said.

Red Dragon Archfiend: 3300ATK – 1300ATK – 700ATK = 1300ATK

Red: 2100LP – 200LP = 1900LP

Blake then fired multiple shots at Red Dragon Archfiend's face, blinding him temporary. Selena began throwing smoke bombs as well, to cloud his vision even further. The Dragon kept scanning the area and tried using his other senses to locate his enemies. When the smoke cleared, he then saw two ninja Faunus coming down with both their blades, as they slashed Red Dragon Archfiend across the chest. The damage waves were sent to Red's Runner causing it to shake a little. Red only smirked as he looked up.

"Impressive. However, any monster that used Trust Guardian as synchro material can't be destroyed in battle. The downside for me is that my Dragon's attack and defense points will drop by 400, but that's a price I'm willing to pay to keep my Dragon on the field." Red said.

Red: 1900LP – 1300LP = 600LP

Red Dragon Archfiend: 3300ATK – 400ATK = 2900ATK
2000DEF – 400DEF = 1600DEF

"That may be. For now, you'll going to get a taste of Selena's other effect! Whenever she inflicts battle damage to the opposing player, she can destroy one of your face-up spell or trap cards. Like that Metalmorph for instance!" Anna yelled. Selena then appeared once again in front of the dragon. She then drew her sword and delivered several slashes to Red, and then sheathed her sword. Nothing happened at first, but the sword slices than appeared on Red's chest, as his Metal coating shattered.

Anna then began to speed up and was now next to Red. "Looks like I'm catching up. I'll end turn now." She said.

"Looks like you are. Let's see how long it lasts." Red said. Both duelists smirked at each other. Right now, they were thinking the same thing: I going to defeat you and win.

Everyone back at the building were on the edge of there seats, as they only focus on the duel on what was happening.

Turn 5: Red
Anna Yuno: 2200LP vs Red: 600LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1 vs Red Hand: 0+1
Anna Yuno SP: 3+1 vs Red SP: 3+1

"My turn! Draw!" Red yelled.

Anna Yuno SP: 3 + 1 = 4

Red SP: 3 + 1 = 4

"I play the Speed Spell – Angel Baton! Since I have two or more Speed counters, I can now draw two cards from my deck, but I have to discard a card from my hand as a drawback. I discard Red Resonator from my hand." Red said.

Speed Spell – Angel Baton
[Spell: Speed]

Red Resonator
[LV: 2] [Attribute: Fire]
[Fiend/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 600] [DEF: 200]

"Next, I'll play the trap card, Revival Gift! Now I can bring back a Tuner monster back from my graveyard, and in exchange for this revival, I have to summon two Revival Gift tokens to your side of the field. I'll bring back Red Resonator in defense mode and since he was special summoned, I gain life points equal to Red Dragon Archfiend's attack points." Red said.

"You're giving us monsters?" Yang asked.

"Don't take it wrong way. It's all going to lead to your defeat." Red said. At that moment, two tadpole monsters appeared on Anna's field in defense mode. On Red's field, Red Resonator appeared and absorbed some of Red Dragon Archfiend's strength and gave it to Red.

Red: 600LP + 2600LP = 3200LP

Gift Fiend Tokens
[LV: 3] [Attribute: Dark]
[Fiend]
[ATK: 1500] [DEF: 1500]

"Something's up. He's planning something big, and I don't like." Anna said, as she kept racing next to Red.

"We're with you on that one, Anna. Just watch out." Weiss said.

Red only smirked as he was ready to burn Anna to a crisp. He then began to speed up and move ahead of Anna and began driving backwards to face Anna personally. "Next I play the Speed Spell – Speed Energy. Now for every Speed Counter I have; Red Dragon Archfiend's attacks points increase by 200 for each Seeing that I have four Speed Counters that means my dragon gains 800 attack points." Red said. A white aura glowed around Red Dragon Archfiend, increasing his strength. Anna only scowled at it, as she knew an onslaught of attack were about to come her way.

Speed Spell – Speed Energy
[Spell: Speed]

Red Dragon Archfiend: 2600ATK + (200x4) ATK = 3400ATK

"Red Dragon Archfiend! Time to heat things up! Attack the Black Shadow Token! Absolute Power Force!" Red yelled. Red Dragon Archfiend roared with pride as it then smashed the token. Blake was also dragged along with the attack since she was still equipped to the dragon. "The destruction isn't over yet, not when I still have Red Dragon Archfiend's effect to activate! After attacking a defense position monster, he destroys all other monsters that are in defense mode. Let them have it!" Red yelled.

Red Dragon Archfiend roared furiously, as it then breathed a stream of fire towards Anna's field, as the two remaining tokens were destroyed. Anna avoid covered herself, to brace herself against the shock waves. She came out with a couple of burns but was okay. "Don't look so relieve yet, Anna. I have one more card to play. Lineage of Destruction! For each defense position monster that was destroyed on your field before this card's activation, Red Dragon Archfiend can wage an additional attack." Red said, as a grin formed on his face.

"Wait! That means he has three more attacks with that dragon!" Yang yelled.

"This might hurt. Brace yourself, Anna." Weiss said.

Anna only nodded as Red prepared his onslaught. "Red Dragon Archfiend! Attack Dread Battler – Huntress Selena!" Red yelled.

"I activate Selena's effect! Red Dragon Archfiend's attack strength is reduced by 700! Also, with Battle Burst's effect, I'll burn you with another 200 points of damage." Anna said, as her card fired another blast of energy.

Lineage of Destruction (Anime Version)
[Trap: Normal]

Red: 3200LP – 200LP = 3000LP

Red Dragon Archfiend: 3400ATK – 700ATK = 2700ATK

Selena threw several shuriken at Red Dragon Archfiend, causing the dragon to flinch just a bit, but the dragon continued his attack. Selena tried to block the attack but was incinerated within the attack as she dissipated.

Anna Yuno: 2200LP – 100LP = 2100LP

"Now a direct attack!" Red yelled.

"I activate Battle Rush's quick effect! If a Huntress monster on my field was destroyed, and I'm about to take damage, I can send this card to the graveyard and halve the damage. Furthermore, if a Huntress Synchro monster was destroyed this turn when I used this effect, I get to draw a card." Anna said. She then saw Red Dragon Archfiend's attack coming closer during each passing second. She then realized that a shockwave of this much power would knock her off her D-Board. Anna then gulped as the first idea that came to her head was risky. She turned off her auto pilot.

AUTO PILOT DISENAGAGED.

Anna then maneuvered around the Red Dragon Archfiend's fist, as she leaned her body in and out to zoom away from it. The shockwave damage still caught on, damaging Anna. Anna began to wobble a little, as she began tilting to one side of the board to the other. Weiss then flew over to her Duel Disk, and quickly turned the Auto Pilot back on, which helped stabilized the board.

AUTO PILOT ENGAGED.

Anna Yuno: 2100LP – (3400/2) LP = 400LP

"Thanks, Weiss. I think you saved me back there." Anna said.

"Don't mention it. Also, while your decision back there was a bit risky, it was the only option. Good thinking on your part." Weiss said.

Anna only nodded as she knew there was another attack coming. "Final Assault!" Red yelled.

"I activate the effect of Third Eye Huntress – Chi from my hand! If I'm attacked directly, I can summon this card from my hand, and the attack changes to her. I'll play her in attack mode. Not only will it evade your dragon's effect, but any battle damage involving her is reduced to zero. Also, she can't be destroyed by battle once per turn." Anna said, playing her card.

Third Eye Huntress – Chi
[LV: 1] [Attribute: Light]
[Psychic/Effect]
[ATK: 700] [DEF: 700]

On Anna's field a bald female monk appeared on the field in a meditation pose, with her eyes closed. She wore orange colored Chinese Monk robes and was barefoot. She also wore a beaded necklace around her neck. Archfiend's attack kept coming closer to Chi, as the fire kept on raging. At the last second, Chi opened her eyes, which were a dark blue color, and dilated them. Then a third mystical eye mark appeared on her head, as it then created a barrier between her and the dragon, canceling out the attack. Everyone, but Red, was a bit freaked out by the eye that appeared on Chi's head, and no it's not the millennium eye.

"Well played. I'll end my turn right now. Due to Red Dragon Archfiend's effect, Red Resonator is destroyed since it didn't attack this turn. As of right now, you're in a bigger pinch yourself, because I happen to draw a Speed Spell on my next turn, Speed World 2's effect will finish you off." Red said. The Resonator then dispersed into spirit particles and Red's attack points returned to 2600.

Red Dragon Archfiend: 3400ATK – 800ATK = 2600ATK

A thought then came to Yang's head. "I wonder how Blake's doing. I better check." Yang said. She then screamed to the top of her lungs. "BLAKE! ARE YOU OKAY!?" she yelled, causing Weiss and Anna to cover her ears. Chi didn't really seem to mind.

Blake on the other hand was looking a bit crispy. Her Gambol Shroud was still tied onto Red Dragon Archfiend's arm, which caused her to get caught up in his fire attacks, singeing some of her hair, and clothes just a bit. "I'm fine, I guess." Blake yelled.

"She's really, hanging in there. Right?" Yang punned.

"Not now, Yang." Anna and Weiss said, in sync.

Turn: 6
Anna Yuno: 400LP vs Red: 3000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1+1 vs Red Hand: 0
Anna Yuno SP: 4+1 vs Red SP: 4+1

(Insert BGM: RWBY Die)

Disregarding Yang's previous joke, Anna continued her turn. "My turn now, I draw!" she yelled.

Anna Yuno SP: 4 + 1 = 5

Red SP: 4 + 1 = 5

"I activate Chi's other effect! By releasing her, I can special summon one Huntress monster from my graveyard with 1500 or less defense points in defense mode. Resurrect! Gear Saw Huntress – Serra!" Anna declared.

Chi then began chanting mystical words that no one could understand, and then disappeared. From that moment, Serra appeared back on the field in the defense mode. "Serra's other effect activates! When she's special summoned to my field, I'm allowed to take one Level 4 or below Huntress or RWBY-Soul monster from my graveyard and add it to my hand. I'll add RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose to my hand and normal summon her!" Anna said, re-summoning Ruby.

"Guess who's back!" Ruby said, as she immediately appeared on the field.

"Next, I play the Speed Spell – Vision Wind! Whenever I have two or more Speed Counters, I can revive one Level 2 or below monster from my graveyard, but it's destroyed at the end of the turn. Return to us! Third Eye Huntress – Chi!" Anna said, as Chi resurrected.

Speed Spell – Vision Wind
[Spell: Speed]

Vision Wind showed a warrior encased in wind. "Now, I tune Level 3 Ruby, with Level 3 Serra and Level 1 Chi!" Anna declared. Ruby then tricked shot into the air, as she then turned into three green rings. Serra and Chi immediately followed, as they turned into a total of four stars. "Descend to the battlefield and bring hope to all! I Synchro Summon! Appear, Red Rose Huntress – Ruby Rose!" Anna chanted.

Red Rose Huntress – Ruby Rose
[LV: 7] [Attribute: Wind]
[Warrior/Synchro/Effect]
[ATK: 2500] [DEF: 2000]

From the pillar of light, a storm of rose petals came flying out as Ruby appeared on Anna's field, as she hovered next to her.

"Alright! It's been a while since I've been out on the field! Let's do this!" Ruby said.

"Yeah! With Ruby's tuner form effect, her synchro form gives her an extra 300 attack points. Also, since I used Chi as Synchro material, I gain life points equal to half of Ruby's attack points." Anna said.

An astral image of Chi then appeared above Anna's field, with her third eye glowing. The glow gave a warm and comforting feeling to everyone, as Anna's life points increased.

Red Rose Huntress – Ruby Rose: 2500ATK + 300ATK = 2800ATK

Anna Yuno: 400LP + 1250LP = 1650LP

"Let's Battle! Ruby! Attack Red Dragon Archfiend! Rose Gale!" Anna declared.

"Here I go! Blake! Ladybug!" Ruby yelled.

Red Dragon Archfiend: 2600ATK – 1250ATK = 1350ATK

Blake nodded as she used her effect to halve the attack strength of Red Dragon Archfiend. Both Ruby and Blake began attacking the dragon, with several dash attacks, making it impossible to block either side. Ruby and Blake then jumped up and struck Red Dragon Archfiend in the chest, damaging it even further.

Red: 3000LP – 1450LP = 1550LP

"Due to Trust Guardian's effect, Red Dragon Archfiend remains on my field." Red said, Red Dragon Archfiend emerged from the battle scarred.

Red Dragon Archfiend: 2600ATK – 400ATK = 2200ATK
1600DEF – 400DEF = 1200DEF

"I set one card face-down and end my turn." Anna said, setting a card.

Red Rose Huntress – Ruby Rose: 2800ATK – 300ATK = 2500ATK

Turn 7: Red
Anna Yuno: 1650 vs. Red: 1550LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 0 vs Red: 0+1
Anna Yuno SP: 5+1 vs Red SP: 5+1

"My turn! I draw!" Red said, he made a scowl as the card he drew was a Speed Spell. If Anna hadn't regained her life points, she would have lost the duel this turn.

Anna Yuno SP: 5 + 1 = 6
Red SP: 5 + 1 = 6

"I activate the Speed Spell – Shift Down! By giving up six of my Speed Counters, I can draw two cards!" Red said, playing his card.

Shift Down – Speed Spell
[Spell: Speed]

Red SP: 6 – 6 = 0

Shift Down showed a racer shifting to a lower gear, slowing down. Red's runner then began to fall back, as Anna got in front. Red then drew two cards from his deck but wasn't happy about being behind.

"How's the new view, Red?" Anna asked, smugly.

"Enjoy it while it last, because I'm taking back first place. So, keep it warm for me, until I beat you. I'll start by summoning my Top Runner! With Top Runner's effect, all Synchro Monsters on my side of the field gain 600 extra attack points." Red said.

Top Runner
[LV: 4] [Attribute: Wind]
[Machine/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 1100] [DEF: 800]

Next to Red, light blue robot came out of the portal and began sprinting alongside the runner, leaving behind afterimages of itself. Top Runner then glowed with a green aura as it then transferred some of that energy to Red Dragon Archfiend.

Red Dragon Archfiend: 2200ATK + 600ATK = 2800ATK

"Now, Red Dragon Archfiend! Attack Red Rose Huntress – Ruby Rose! Crimson Hell Scorching!" Red yelled.

Red Dragon Archfiend's mouth then began to fill with fire. It then unleashed its Fire Breath attack as Ruby was surrounded by the scorching flames. Ruby screamed in pain, as she then shattered, within the flames.

Anna Yuno: 1650LP – 300LP = 1350LP

"Now you've lost your ace monster." Red said, smirking.

"Are you so sure about that!?" Anna replied.

"What!?"

"I play my face-down! Huntress Revenge! Whenever a level 5 or higher Huntress monster on my side of the field is destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard, this card re-summons that monster with its effects negated, and equips to it! As a tradeoff, the equipped monster gains attack points equal to half of the attack points of the monster that destroyed it. Revive with conviction and spirit! Ruby!" Anna yelled.

Huntress Revenge
[Trap: Normal]

Red Rose Huntress – Ruby Rose: 2500ATK + 1400ATK = 3900ATK

Huntress Revenge showed Yang ascending from the ground in a pillar of light as her eyes were red with furry. The card then shot a blazing pillar of fire into the sky, and then struck the Duel Course. An eruption occurred as a flaming rose petal scattered in the sky. The flames then dispersed as Ruby reappeared on the field, looking more aggressive than usually. The blade of her Crescent Rose was also shrouded in flames.

"YOU'RE GOING DOWN, RED! YOU HEAR ME!? D-O-W-N, DOWN!" Ruby yelled.

"Does Ruby seem a bit angrier now after that revival?" Weiss asked, a bit stunned of Ruby's new attitude.

"What were you expecting? She got revived by a trap card that has a picture of me on it and with the word 'revenge' in it. She bound to be angry." Yang said, who also a bit shocked as well.

Red only scowled. "You're persistent, I'll give you that. I set one card face-down and end my turn! Top Runner is destroyed since it didn't attack this turn." He said, as Top Runner shattered.

Red Dragon Archfiend: 2800ATK – 600ATK = 2200ATK

Turn 8: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 1350LP vs Red: 1550LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 0+1 vs Red Hand: 0
Anna Yuno SP: 6+1 vs Red SP: 0+1

"It's time to end this now! I draw!" Anna yelled.

Anna Yuno SP: 6 + 1 = 7

Red SP: 0 + 1 = 1

"I activate Speed World 2's effect! By giving up seven of my Speed Counters, I can draw one card from my deck." Anna said, as she drew an extra card. Anna's D-board began to slow down just a bit, as both she and Red were now neck to neck.

Anna Yuno SP: 7 – 7 = 0

"Send me in, Anna! I'll end this right now!" Ruby yelled with fury.

"Consider your request granted! Ruby, take out the rest of Red's Life points! Gale Rose Inferno!" Anna shouted.

Ruby then dashed towards Red Dragon Archfiend, as the dragon shot multiple fire balls at Ruby, who evaded them. The two Duel monsters were now clashing claw with scythe continuously, and eventually getting into a stalemate. Blake then shot multiple strikes at Red to even the odds in their favor.

Red Dragon Archfiend: 2200ATK – 1250ATK = 950ATK

"Listen well, Red, because I'm only going to say this once! I get that you care for others and you'll do anything to help them. However, THAT'S NO EXCUSE…" Ruby paused for a moment, as she broke the stalemate, and tricked shot into the air. "…TO HURT OTHERS JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR IDEAL OF DUELING!" Ruby then came soaring down with several flaming rose petals behind her. "SO, LEAVE EVERY DUELIST WHO JUSTS WANTS DUEL, ALONE!" Ruby yelled, as she delivered the Scythe swing to Red Dragon Archfiend chest, causing the Dragon to roar in pain.

Red felt the strike of Ruby's attack to his own body. Almost as if Anna and Ruby struck his very own soul. He felt this sensation before, against other duelists before. It made him smile. It was satisfying to fight an opponent with such conviction and strength.

"I'm impressed. However, just because you proved me wrong about you doesn't mean it guarantees victory. I play my face-down! Defense Draw! Now I take no battle damage from your attack and I get to draw one card. Furthermore, Red Dragon Archfiend gets to stick around on my field with Trust Guardian's effect.

Defense Draw
[Trap: Normal]

Red Dragon Archfiend: 2200ATK – 400ATK = 1800ATK
1200DEF – 400DEF = 800DEF

(End BGM)

Ruby only moved back to Anna's side of the field, feeling slightly ticked off she couldn't finish off Red. She then looked at Anna, as the two came into agreement, they would just finish Red off next turn. "I set one card face-down and end my turn." Anna said as she finished her turn.

Turn 9: Red
Anna Yuno: 1350LP vs Red: 1550LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1 vs Red Hand: 1
Anna Yuno SP: 0+1 vs Red SP: 1+1

Show far, Red and Anna were on equal footing. Both had their ace monsters on the field, and neither of them were backing down. Ruby and Red Dragon Archfiend stared each other down, with fire in each of there eyes. Anna and Red both kept on racing next to each other, determined to take first place.

Red only chuckled for a moment.

"What's so funny?" Anna asked.

"It's nothing. I'm just surprised of how satisfying this duel is to me." Red said.

"Huh?"

"Listen, I too know what it means to enjoy a duel. The thrill of dealing damage, withstanding attacks, destroying the opponent's monsters, and grasping victory. I enjoy it all and it excites me. What excites me more is Turbo Dueling. You can feel it too, can you? The rush that this type of dueling brings. With each turn, duelists begin to understand each other through their cards. It's probably the best feeling I've ever felt in all my life." Red said.

Anna and RWBY was silent for a moment, as Red seemed more human and spoke like a true duelist for a moment. "In my world, with my enemies on the rise, feelings like that can't be enjoyed properly. It makes me really angry, and my thirst for a duel that would satisfy me kept begging me to fight like I wanted to. But I couldn't, because I have a responsibility to everyone back where I live. Although, I'm just an avatar. This is how my other self feels." Red said. He smiled for a moment, as he wanted to savor the moment of this duel. He then got serious again and began accelerating forward.

(Insert BGM: Yugioh 5Ds Light and Dark)

"Alright, enough with the small talk! Anna. You showed me your passionate spirit. Now let me show you, MY BURNING SOUL! MY TURN! I DRAW! Red yelled.

Anna Yuno SP: 0 + 1 = 1

Red SP: 1 + 1 = 2

"Since I control a Level 8 Synchro Monster, I can summon the Tuner Monster Creation Resonator!" Red yelled. Next to Red's runner another Resonator monster appeared but this one had an electronic fan on its back with wings.

Creation Resonator
[LV: 3] [Attribute: Wind]
[Fiend/Tuner/Effect]
[ATK: 800] [DEF: 600]

"Next, I normal summon Attack Gainer from my hand!" Red yelled, playing his card. At that moment, a black armored brawler with red hair appeared on the field, flying out with a jump kick.

"I activate another Huntress Aura Trap card! Now for this turn, Huntress Monsters can't be destroyed this turn!" Anna said, playing another copy of her trap. She got it from the Huntresses from the spirit world.

Red eyes then turned red, as a fiery aura surrounded him. He then placed his right fist over his heart, as he shouted loudly. "Witness the power of my Burning Soul! I now Double Tune Level 1 Attack Gainer and Level 3 Creation Resonator with Level 8 Red Dragon Archfiend!" Red yelled.

"Here we go, Anna. He's summoning something bigger and redder!" Yang shouted.

Creation Resonator and Attack Gainer flew into the sky, crossing both of their arms and turned into a total of four flaming rings. Blake was forced to back off, as she could feel the intensity of the heat. She then detached from Red Dragon Archfiend as she dissipated into spirit particles. The rings then surrounded Red Dragon Archfiend. Instead of turning him into eight stars, the rings began to circle around the Dragon.

3 + 1 + 8 = 12

"The King and The Devil, here and now, shall become as one. A Raging Spirit! Lift up the very cries of Creation itself! Synchro Summon! Come forth! Red Nova Dragon!" Red yelled.

Red Nova Dragon
[LV: 12] [Attribute: Dark]
[Dragon/Synchro/Effect]
[ATK: 3500] [DEF: 3000]

The Archfiend roared proudly, as the flames around him engulfed him, as a gigantic explosion occurred on the field. From within the flames, Red Nova Dragon has awakened. The dragon had a crimson and sleeker body with a purple gem in the center, with four cursed wings, and the end of his tail was the shape of an axe, with its spine bones sticking out of his back. His horns were also sleeker and crimson red. Red Nova held up his right hand, and engulfed it in flames, as he let out a loud, fearsome roar. Everyone was stunned with awe of the appearance of Archfiend's new form, as it was different from the previous one they saw yesterday.

"Red Nova Dragon's effect activates! For each Tuner Monster in my graveyard, Red Nova Dragon gains 500 extra attack points! There are currently five Tuner Monsters in my graveyard. That means Red Nova Dragon gains 2500 attack points raising his power to 6000 attack points!" Red yelled. An astral image of Trust Guardian, Red Resonator, Top Runner, Creation Resonator, and Attack Gainer appeared on the field as they all turned into fiery energy and entered Red Nova Dragon's body, empowering him.

Red Nova Dragon: 3500ATK + 2500ATK = 6000ATK

"In addition, with Attack Gainer's effect, if he's sent to the graveyard as Synchro Material, Red Rose Huntress – Ruby Rose loses 1000 attack points!" Red yelled. Attack Gainer appeared once again on the field as he then fired a blue energy kick at Ruby, weakening her.

Red Rose Huntress – Ruby Rose: 3800ATK – 1000ATK = 2800ATK

"Red Nova Dragon! Attack Ruby Rose and end this duel! BURNING SOUL!" Red yelled, as he slid on his runner.

Red Nova roared and began diving towards Ruby. His body then caught on fire as he then performed a U-turn in the sky and headed straight back for Ruby. Anna only looked at her hand, which contained Steam Huntress – Jessica. It wouldn't be of much help since it wasn't enough to soften the blow. Ruby saw that and decided to go out in style. She then charged towards the flaming dragon, as both ace monsters let out their battle cries. Ruby then brought her Scythe down on the Dragon, as an explosion occurred on the track. Ruby and Anna were sent flying into the sky, as Anna life points were reduced to zero. As Anna and Ruby fell, Red Nova then circled around, and caught both of them, as he set them safely on the ground.

Anna only looked up at the dragon and smiled. "So, this is Red's Burning Soul. It's quite powerful, and very painful." She said, as her body was aching from the duel.

Anna Yuno: 1350LP – 3200LP = 0

(End BGM)

Duel Over
Winner: Red

(Back at the Factory)

Anna, RWBY and Red had just returned from the track. Red and Anna were now shaking each other's hands out of respect.

"That was one of the best matches I've had in a while. Since my thirst has been quenched, I suppose I'll take a break from dueling for a while. However, I won't hold back against anyone I duel when I feel like it." Red said, as he went back to his throne.

"Ok. I did lose after all." Anna said, sounding a bit glum.

"Don't look so sad. After all, consider it an honor to be defeated by Red Nova Dragon. Let alone force me to summon it." Red said.

"I guess that's your way of encouraging someone." Blake said.

"But, hey, you did pretty amazing out there, Anna. Especially since it was your first Turbo Duel." Zack said, patting Anna on the back multiple times.

"Indeed. My duel was mostly one sided at times. For you, it was back and forward. Countering each other's moves and reading each other. Well played, Annie." Ethan said.

"It's Anna. Thanks anyway." Anna said in a calmer tone. Ruby gave Anna a thumb up for her new attitude change.

Blake then came up and confronted Red. "Red. Something has been nagging at my mind while I was equipped to your Dragon. Every move, and every action you took against us. It's almost as if you knew us from the beginning. I want to know why." Blake asked.

"Some questions are better left answered later. However, I will say this. I've known both team RWBY and JNPR ever since the beginning." Red said.

"Do you have to make it sound so cryptic?" Weiss asked.

"Hey! You should be glad I'm giving you some information." Red said.

"Seriously? That was supposed to be information? That just sounded like some foreshadowing for some big major future event!" Lu said.

Everyone was silent for a moment, as they didn't know what say after Lu's remark. Pyrrha did let out a little cough. Anna then decided to grab the D-Board and give it back to Red. The Spirit only waved his hand. "Keep it. As a reminder of our Turbo Duel." He said.

"Really? You actually mean it?" Anna asked.

"Why not? There's also one for you, Zack. And your sister." Red said, as an orange D-Board rolled out.

"Wow! Thanks a lot! But my sister will probably say no to that. She doesn't like Turbo Dueling, and she calls it, Reckless Dueling." Zack said, as he immediately picked up the D-Board.

"I can see why she thinks that. After all, if texting and driving is illegal, it bugs my mind how playing card games and driving motorcycles isn't." Ren said.

"I guess the game is too popular to be held down by the law." Pyrrha said, while shrugging.

"This world operates under its own unique logic." Jaune said.

"Ditto to that." Nora said.

"Hmph. That little duelist doesn't know what she's missing out on. Oh well. Her lost then. Now the, I have to kindly ask all of you to leave now. I've got some business to attend to?" Red said.

"What's that?" Ethan asked, curious.

"It's none of your business, that's what. Now get out of here. Or do I need my Gears to escort you out themselves?" Red asked, as the Ancient Gear knights suddenly slid into view, as their red eye lit up. The Soldier was also there but he was holding his head in his free hand.

Everyone immediately took a step back.

"Nope. We're cool." Zack said, stuttering a bit.

"No worries. We'll just show ourselves out." Anna said quickly.

"We'll be fine. Good day to you." Ethan said, as he sweated a little.

The group then dashed for the exit, wanting to live and not die. Red stretched his body, relaxing a bit. He then let out a sigh and turned his head to a nearby corner. "How long are you going to conceal yourself. You missed out on all of the fun." Red said, jokingly.

From the shadows, a female figure then stepped out. She had fair skin, topaz eyes, and burgundy hair, being mostly chin length with some elbow bangs that frame on both sides of her face. She wore a low-cut corset with short light-green puffy sleeves and a high collar, along with a magenta trench coat, and red choker. She also wore dark elbow-length gloves, stocking that were attached to her skirt and high heeled boots. This is the Black Rose Dragon, also known as Akiza in her human form.

"I actually saw quite a bit. It's been a while since I saw you had that much fun." Akiza said.

"Yeah, that Anna girl is okay in my book. What do you think of her. Considering that spirit that's hanging out within you." Red said.

"I think I can trust her. Also, it's nice to see that Huntsmen and Huntresses are in good hands. These version of team RWBY and JNPR are quite strong as well, but the same at heart." Akiza said, smiling.

"You're telling me. That red head's last attack actually felt painful. My chest is still a bit sore." Red said, rubbing his chest.

Akiza only chuckled. "Don't tell me, you're getting soft, Red?" she said.

Red only sighed. "Why did the Real Black Rose had to sent you here with me? I capable of handling this on my own." He said.

"True. But someone has to keep an eye on your recklessness. Also, I'm more intrigued with what this world has to offer. Anyways, I think our actual visitors are here." Akiza said.

Red and Akiza then stood together as a gigantic portal then began to open up, as it showed a galactical view. Two figures then emerged from the portal. The first one wore yellow and white armor, and had red eyes, while the other one wore black armor with red glowing accents.

"Greetings. I'm and Number 39: Utopia. Leader of the Number Order." The spirit known as Utopia said.

"And I'm Number 101: Silent Honor Ark. Second Leader of the Number Order, and head of the Over-Hundred Numbers division." The spirit known as Ark said.

"So, it's true. You guys have from some kind of little club." Red said.

"You could say that. Ever since that big war, me and the other Numbers have become more reasonable with using our powers to stop galactic or other-dimensional threats. Plus, we also had the Toons mass produced our cards. Now every duelist can use a number without any negative side effects. Plus, we also formed a nice treaty between regular Numbers and Over-Hundred Numbers. Me and Ark are like best buds now!" Utopia said.

"I wouldn't go that far." Ark said, sounding a bit moody.

Utopia only patted Ark on the back, as a sign that they were friends. He then turned his attention to Red. "So, now then. Let's get started. As a duelist once said, Ready to High-Five the Sky? he asked.

"Sure. Anything to help my comrades back on my place." Red said.

"Good. Tells us about your situation back at our place. We've prepared dinner. Number 59's cooking skills are highly commendable." Ark said.

"We'll do anything to help you in anyway we can." Utopia said with a positive tone.

"One question, shouldn't you be concerned about the invading Grimm?" Red asked.

"I'm not to worried about that. Neos has that all under control. The last thing I would want to do is pressure him with more stress of a threat from another dimension." Utopia said.

"What a good friend you are. This mission might go smoother than I thought." Red said.

"I can tell this is a start of a brand-new journey." Akiza said.

The four spirits then entered the portal, marking the end of the day. As for our protagonist, little to their knowledge, this encounter was only the beginning. They would eventually cross paths again with Red, but they will be fighting alongside one another, against a force that threatens both of their worlds. What's more, they will receive some, special help. For now, everyone is just enjoying the peaceful life, while it lasts.

End of Chapter

Author's Note

And there you have it. The sixteenth chapter of my fic. It's pretty amazing of how this story has been apart of my life, and I have you guys to thank, for supporting me. Anyways, this was a special chapter, as Characters from Tyrannozaur's fic decided to pay a visit to this fic. Both he and I have been talking about our crossover for sometime and we finally did both our mentions. You remember the first Grimm duelists of this story? Well, you can see them again in Tyrannozaur's latest chapters, as they make a return there. Now then, I had a lot of fun writing this fic, and mostly the duel. One of the Reasons why I went with classic Red Dragon Archfiend and Red Nova Dragon was mostly due to childhood nostalgia. Scarlight is cool and all, but nothing beats good old classic Red Dragon Archfiend. While writing this fic, I kept imagining Red speaking in Jack's English dub voice. It was pretty neat to.

On the other hand, Anna and Zack now have access to a limited form of Turbo Dueling. D-Boards were used in the anime, but not as much since Luna and Leo didn't duel much, let alone Turbo Duel so often. Also, you don't need a license to ride an electronic scooter. So, in turn, you shouldn't need a license to ride an electronic Skate Board, with a duel feature attached. Now Numbers. I decided to use this fic to answer up some questions of how I was going to incorporated them into my fic, and I did. Numbers are now playable, and have been mass produced, and don't do any crazy mind takeover.

Now onto Answers and Questions, from top to bottom. I'll only respond to those I haven't answer yet, or can't answer via PM.

GearStriker: It's kind of hard to make out what your saying, but I think I understand what you're saying. Grimm cards will be out in the future, but it won't be what you'll be expecting. I have plans for Weiss' summon glyph in the future, so don't worry about it.

flame: I actually did make a deviantart profile a month ago, and I have you to thank for it. I already posted a couple of drawings of my OC cards. However, I'm no pro drawer, so don't expect anything to grand. Just hand drawings from my high school year and some drawings in my college year.

Guest: I already solved the Turbo Duel problem, so that's no longer a concern. However, I think I won't be adding anymore characters from the actual RWBY series for now. I might change my mind later. Like I said, before, we don't know much about them. RWBY villains, probably won't make an appearance. Atem will make an appearance in the future. As for a rage moment, I don't see it happening soon. I don't even know even want to give Anna a rage moment.

Guest: The Numbers have appeared.

Guest: Kaiba Land still exists, but it's only in New Domino City, and this takes place in Jewel City. The best I can manage are video games and technology developed by Kabia Corp. Mia will not get her own team from Remnant.

Guest: I did think about using Junk Archer in the tag duel to banish Pyrrha, but it was kind of sad for me to do it. If the occasion ever occurs, it'll sad reference to the future.

Guest: Zwei has been a tricky subject for me. I do have one idea for him though. I just need to work out the kinks. Although I have been thinking about giving Anna her own special Kuriboh. As I stated before, the other teams won't be making appearance for a long time.

Johnathen: Fusion summoning Qrow and Ozpin using RWBY and JNPR sounds weird, so no, I don't think it will fly.

Guest: Penny, eh, I don't know. She's somewhat in the 'maybe' category since we know a lot more about her. But her secret will be tricky to write into the story.

Guest: I'll just use which ever God Cards I feel like are the best.

Guest: Roman and Neo will not appear.

Guest: There may be more Duel Instinct moments in the future. As for rage moments, I don't think it will happen for a while.

Guest: Atem's appearance in Dark Side of Dimensions is different from this fic. Atem is connected to Yugi. Not to Anna.

Guest: A tournament arc may be on the horizon soon. I just never thought about it. I even haven't thought about my champion yet. However, the maidens will not be in the story since they have complicated story in the RWBY verse. Summer Rose: same story. She's complicated. The OC cards are ok. Anna does have a rival. She just met her in this chapter. Ethan, is somewhat of a rival too, but he's one the Rival level of Shark from Zexal.

Keno02013/Jacob9594 Accel Synchro, and Fusion Evolution will be given to the group, and there might be future forms in the future. I even have a special form for Weiss right now. But it won't appear around anytime soon.

Guest: I get what you're saying. Egyptian God cards aren't as special as they are today. They are just basically nostalgia power houses.

Guest: I know nothing of the Yugioh GX manga. Only the first couple of chapters. So, I don't think I can.

Guest: I guess a history lesson about previous duelists would be cool. But then again why would that need to be taught to students? They're probably already in the memories of every duelist.

Guest: I haven't seen the Dark Side of Dimensions yet. Only clips. So, I have no idea what a Dimension Duel is, or how it works. When I see, I might use it.

Guest: I don't think I'll be putting in past Yugioh characters anytime soon. Red and Akiza are from a different fic, if you're wondering.

Guest Quest: I changed Zet's effect to only trigger when he attacks.

That should wrap up everything I have to say. Now then, as I mentioned before, I've started my own Deviantart profile. I'll post images of my OC cards on that site from time to time, whenever I feel like drawing. Check it out whenever you want. Just type in 'maxgundam1998 deviantart' in your search bar, and you can see my drawings. Don't expect anything to big. They're just hand drawings. I'm no pro at drawing. That's all I have to say.

Have a nice day everyone.
