Yu-Gi-Oh! Rainbow

by UncouthFive

The story is set in a distant future in Koragami City where dueling has taken a new form called Future Summoning. The heroine is a 15-year-old girl named Yura Minako. Abandoning her old home, Yura now must compete for a chance to enter a grand dueling school. Then one day, as she prepares for a matchup, Yura encounters a familiar named Aru in her bag. What does this mean for Yura?

Chapter 25: What are you fighting for?

It was now time for the next match. Yura and Shizuka watched within the crowd.

"For our next match," Chairman Mitsuo announced, "it is Nasai Arata vs Kenji Rouko!" Kenji slowly made his way to the dueling field where Nasai was already waiting. "Look Yura," Shizuka said, "he's that guy I had won against during the Ranking Round." Yura nodded in agreement. "That's true but look at who he's up against," she said. "Kenji Rouko. I won't forget our duel where he beat me so quickly. I wanna duel him again." "Well this is a good opportunity to learn a little more about him Yura so pay attention to this duel," Shizuka stated. The duel between Nasai and Kenji went underway.

"DUEL!" both duelists said. "I'll go first," Nasai stated. "I summon Satellarknight Unukalhai (Lv.4/1800atk). I activate Unukalhai's effect. Whenever it is summoned, Unukalhai allows me to send a "tellarknight" card from my deck to my graveyard. I'm sending Satellarknight Deneb. Next, I'll set 2 cards face-down and end my turn."

"My turn, draw," Kenji said. "When you have a monster on your field and I don't, I can special summon Darkstar Gryphon (Lv.6/DARK/2350atk)." Yura could feel a dark omen coming from Kenji. Something doesn't feel right, she thought. "Next," Kenji continued, "I actvate Darkstar Tuning. This card allows me to use monsters on my field and/or monsters in my hand to Synchro summon a "Darkstar" synchro monster." "Just like his duel with me," Yura said. "I tune my level 4 Darkstar Falcon, level 1 Darkstar Herald, and level 1 Darkstar Chameleon. Synchro Summon! The darkness of the stars give rise to a new power. Come, level 6, Darkstar Cosmos (2600atk). I activate Cosmos' effect. By lowering its attack points by 1000, it can destroy a monster on your field. Destroy that Satellarknight Unukalhai."

"I won't allow you to," Nasai said, "I activate Stellarnova Alpha. I can activate this card when an opponent's monster effect is activated. By sending a "tellarknight" monster to the graveyard, not only is your monster's effect negated, but it is also destroyed!" Kenji didn't react and seemed to not care. "Then, I'm allowed to draw 1 card!" Nasai included as he drew a card. "I activate Darkstar Cosmos' second effect. When it's destroyed by a card effect, I can draw a card and reveal it. If it's a "Darkstar" monster, I can draw another card." When Kenji draws the first card, he reveals it as Darkstar Heckhound (Lv.3) and draws another card. "That's pretty impressive," Shizuka said. "Go Darkstar Gryphon, attack him directly!" Kenji directed. Nasai braced for a big hit. He was able to withstand it but took a major 2350 points of damage which left him with 1650 life points. "I set 2 cards and end my turn," Kenji said concluding his turn. "I draw," Nasai said. " I summon Satellarknight Alsahm. Whenever Alsahm is summoned, you take 1000 points of damage." Kenji's life points fell to 3000. "Now I activate my set card from earlier, Stellarknight Skybridge. This spell card special summons a "tellarknight" monster from my deck at the cost of returning a "tellarknight" on my field to the deck. So I special summon Satellarknight Vega and return Satellarknight Alsahm to my deck. Next I activate Vega's effect. I can special summon a "tellarknight" monster from my hand. I special summon Satellarknight Altair. Then I activate Altair's effect. Altair can special summon a "tellarknight" monster from my graveyard. So come, Satellarknight Deneb. And now Deneb's effect will activate. Upon being summoned, I can add a "tellarknight" monster from my deck to my hand. I add Satellarknight Procyon to my hand."

"3 level 4 monsters.." Kenji muttered. "I overlay my level 4 Satellarknight Vega, Altair, and Deneb. With these three monsters, I build the overlay network. Xyz summon! Come Rank 4, Satellarknight Triverr (Rnk4/2100atk/2500def)!" The crowd became astonished at the beauty of Triverr. "Triverr has a sweet effect too!" Nasai said. "When Xyz summoned, Triverr returns ALL other cards on the field to the owner's hand." "Whoa, really?" Yura said. All of Kenji's cards returned to his hand. Nasai didn't have any other cards on his field. "Now this is where I'll take over this duel," Nasai said. "I activate the field spell, Hexatellarknight! Because of this field spell, "tellarknight" Xyz monsters gain 200 attack points for each of their overlay units. Triverr has 3 so it gains 600 attack points (2700). But I'm gonna have to use an overlay unit to activate Triverr's second effect. Once a turn, my opponent must discard a random card from their hand." Kenji became annoyed as the cards in his hand vanished until one of his cards was sent to the graveyard. His cards then reappeared in his hand. HisDarkstar Heckhound was sent. "This is far from over!" Nasai said, "Attack Kenji directly Triverr!" Kenji was blown back and left with a staggering 500 life points. He got up slowly. "I'm afraid it doesn't end there. Now, I REBUILD the overlay network with Satellarknight Triverr!"

"You what?!" Kenji yelled, surprised. "Rebuild the overlay network?!" Yura said in shock. "Now fear what will come when infinite stars are gathered and take on a whole new form! Come RANK 5, Constellarknight Diamond! (2700atk+600=3300atk) This monster will become your defeat, Kenji!"
