Me: Well I've been checking the traffic for this story and for some reason at one point my previous chapter had more hits than the first chapter. What's up with that?
Tenpei: Dunno. Why're you asking from us?
Me: Dunno. Also after watching the traffic I noticed this story had more readers than I thought. Still I only get two reviews per chapter since Celticgirl disappeared. I would appreciate if some of you reviewed.

''So…now that The End lost what's our next move?'' Lunar asked once Twila returned. Twila shook his head.
''The Prophecy hasn't mentioned anything yet so we have to wait.'' Twila answered and then looked around and noticed someone was missing. ''Where's Shado?'' He asked and speak of the devil, Shado arrived to the room and sat down on his chair and immediately crossed his arms. ''Where were you?'' Twila demanded answers.
''Nowhere.'' Shado simply answered. Twila glared at him angrily.
''I swear if you're doing something against The Prophecy I will kill you.'' Twila threatened. Shado kept his cool since he knew Twila couldn't do that.
''Relax. What I did wasn't against The Prophecy.'' Shado said and started to look through his deck in boredom.
Sly still found it hard to believe. They had defeated The End, Ruka had confessed she loved him back and Rua and Patty were once again a happy couple. He along with others was still standing at the same spot where they dueled.
''So…what should we do now?'' Patty asked breaking the silence that they had.
''I suggest we go back to our dorms and get some good-earned sleep.'' Tenpei said. Everyone agreed as they were starting to be tired. Ruka and Patty walked back to Obelisk Girls Dorm and Rua, Tenpei and Sly headed to back to Ra Yellow dorms. Once Patty and Ruka arrived to their room Patty started to bombard Ruka with questions.
''So…how did your first kiss feel like? Was it as good as you imagined? Did you think Sly's confession was touching? How did Sly's lips feel like?'' Patty asked. She admitted that the last question was little odd, but she thought Ruka wouldn't mind that.
''Well…it felt perfect. It was way better than I imagined. Sly's confession couldn't have been more emotional and…what's up with that question?'' Ruka answered and wondered about the last question. ''I mean I would never ask you how Rua's lips feel like.'' Ruka said jokingly.
''They feel like heaven.'' Patty said in her dreamy state. She quickly snapped out of it. ''Sorry…let's go to sleep.'' Patty said and moved towards her bed.
Once Sly got inside his room he noticed his cellphone on the table. He had forgotten it there. He then noticed he had missed one call. That call was from his mother. He didn't want to bother her mother at this hour so he ignored and went to bed.
''I'm beat.'' Rua said and sat down on his bed and immediately laid down on it.
''Don't forget that school starts 8:15 tomorrow.'' Tenpei reminded him. Rua groaned annoyed.
''It's unfair that we have to attend school and fight some bad guys at the same time.'' Rua said and closed his eyes to get some sleep.
Tomorrow morning Sly woke up when sunlight peeked through window curtains, right at his face. He grunted and turned to look at the alarm clock that flashed 7:45. He yawned and stood up from his bed.
''I better call my mother now.'' Sly said to himself wondering why his mother called him yesterday. He took his black cellphone that was still on the table and dialed his mother's number. After some time of waiting a female voice picked up.
''Good morning son. Slept well?'' Kasumi asked. Sly replied with a simple yes. ''That's good. So why didn't you answer your phone yesterday?'' Katsumi asked sounding a bit worried.
''It's nothing to worry about.'' Sly lied, he knew very well that it was something to worry about.
''Well, if you say so. Has anything interesting happened in school recently?'' Kasumi asked curiously.
''Nothing really…'' Sly answered and right after he said that the door opened to reveal Ruka with a smile on her face.
''Good morning Sly.'' Ruka greeted and walked closer to him and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. Sly smiled a little at her.
''Good morning Ruka.'' Sly answered and momentarily forgot that he was on a phone. He remembered when his mother started giggling.
''Is Ruka there? The girl you had a crush on?'' Kasumi asked still giggling. Sly blushed slightly.
''Yes…'' As soon as Sly said that Kasumi demanded that he should give the phone to Ruka and Sly reluctantly did so hoping that nothing embarrassing would happen.
''It's great to talk with you Ruka. Sly has told a lot about you.'' Kasumi said giggling a little.
''Has he told you…I'm annoying, draggy or anything else that related to those two words?'' Ruka asked little scared.
''All that…'' Kasumi said and Ruka immediately looked down sadly. ''But he has also called you kind, caring, funny and ho…'' Sly was lucky enough to be on earshot so he quickly took the cellphone from Ruka.
''I didn't call her the h-word!'' Sly nearly yelled with his face red. Ruka looked at him innocently wondering what that h-word was.
''Of course you didn't…'' Kasumi said in a doubting voice. Then she realized something. Neither Sly nor Ruka sounded embarrassed about this and when Ruka arrived she was sure she heard a small smooching sound. This led her to conclude one thing. ''YOU TWO ARE DATING AREN'T YOU!'' Kasumi yelled to the phone which caused her co-workers to look at her strangely.
''Oh no…'' Sly whispered under his breath. When his mother gets this way it's not good. For him at least.
''How did it happen? Why did it happen? When did it happen! Did you kiss already? If you did, how did feel like? When you get married do you want me to rent a hotel room for you so you can have s...'' What Kasumi didn't notice was that Sly and Ruka had already hung up on her.
''Your mother is…interesting person.'' Ruka said somewhat awkwardly. Then she noticed the time. It was already 8:10. ''Oh no! We'll be late from class if we don't hurry!'' Ruka said and took Sly's hand before rushing to the class.
When they got to the front of the class the clock was 8:13. For some reason there was bunch of excited girls who were giggling at the front of the class.
''What's with these girls Patty?'' Ruka asked once she and Sly arrived.
''Apparently there's a transfer student coming today and I heard the student is a boy and he's so rich he can afford anything…also he's good-looking.'' Patty said and she heard Rua grumble something under his breath. ''Not as good-looking as you though.'' Patty said to Rua. Rua smiled a little.
The clock rang meaning it was 8:15. Students ran in to the class and took their seats and the teacher quickly arrived as well. They all greeted each other before starting the lesson.
''I'm sure many of you know that there's a new student joining us today. Headmaster if you may.'' Teacher said and the principal Henry walked in the class. He flashed a small smile at Tenpei before putting his hands behind his back.
''Now here's your new friend. He's been home-schooled, but he showed excellent performance in his entrance exam. Here's Rick.'' Henry said and pointed at the door. In walked a boy with short jet black hair and piercing green eyes. He was wearing Obelisk Blue Uniform. He seemed to observe the class closely.
''So this is my class? They don't look very strong.'' Rick thought. Then his gaze hit Ruka and he let his eyes linger on her. Rick stared at her with love-struck expression. ''She's beautiful and probably strong too.'' However Ruka didn't look his way. Instead she looked Sly and smiled slightly at him. Sly smiled back. Rick glared at him. ''This'll be interesting.''
''My name is Rick. It's nice to meet you.'' Rick said and bowed slightly. Some girls squealed at his voice and they had a dreamy expression on their faces. Henry knowing that he wasn't needed anymore nodded and left the room.
''Okay Rick…you sit over there.'' Teacher said and pointed at the seat behind Ruka. Rick nodded and walked to his seat. He easily felt gazes of many girls, but he ignored them. His target was Ruka.
The class went normally from there. The class was about combination play of Milling and Stalling. The bell finally rang signaling the end of the first class. Students ran from the classroom to have fun with their friends before the next class would start. Gang was going to leave the classroom as well, but Rick stopped them.
''Hey since I'm new here do you guys mind showing me around the school?'' Rick asked with sheepish smile on the outside. On the inside he was smirking as his plan was starting to unfold. Ruka looked at him for a moment before smiling.
''Sure we don't mind. My name is Ruka.'' Ruka greeted him and extended her hand. Instead of shaking it he kissed her hand lightly. Everyone gasped at the gesture and Sly glared at Rick.
''Ruka it's a beautiful name for a beautiful girl.'' Rick said. It was obvious he was flirting with her. Ruka felt slightly awkward because of this.
''That's sweet, but I have boyfriend.'' Ruka said not wanting him to get the wrong idea. Rick didn't look too shocked about this.
''Yeah and that's me.'' Sly said. Rick stared at him and Sly stared at him back. Both looked like they were challenging each other with their eyes. Ruka stood awkwardly between the two boys.
''This is Sly…my boyfriend.'' Ruka said blushing slightly. She still hasn't got used to calling Sly her boyfriend. Despite this Sly and Rick continued to glare at each other.
''And my name is Rua and this is my girlfriend Patty.'' Rua introduced himself. Finally Rick broke his glaring contest with Sly and turned his attention to Rua and Patty. He observed Patty for a moment. ''She doesn't seem interesting. Not worth my time.'' Rick thought. He shook both of their hands. He then turned his attention to Tenpei who hadn't introduced himself yet. ''And you are?'' Rick questioned.
''I'm Tenpei. I'm the only one in this group who doesn't have a girlfriend.'' Tenpei said somewhat pathetically. Rick resisted the urge to laugh at his introduction.
''So Rick what kind of deck do you play?'' Rua asked curiously. Rick didn't answer. Instead he opened his bag and took out some kind of album. Inside, there were many different kinds of deck boxes. Everyone was surprised by this. ''You're saying all those decks are yours?'' Rua asked in disbelief. Rick nodded.
''You did hear that I was rich right?'' Rick asked and they nodded. ''With that money I was able to buy almost all the cards so I was able to build all these decks.'' Rick answered little arrogantly. They were all impressed by this.
''Don't we have dueling class next?'' Rua asked. Tenpei nodded and Rua smiled widely. ''That's great! We get to see your skills in dueling.'' Rua said excited. Rick just chuckled slightly. On the inside Rick was laughing evilly.
During the dueling class the pairs are randomly selected so you never know who you'll duel against. Rick had been paired against the strongest duelist in the class, James. James had excellent control over his Six Samurai deck and always won during the dueling class. Rick however remained calm. He had chosen the deck box with black fist crushing the enemy on the cover. Everyone started their duels at the same time.
''Duel!'' Everyone in the room said.
James's LP: 4000
Rick's LP: 4000
''Stronger goes first! I draw!'' James said and drew a card. He smiled once he saw his hand. ''First I activate Shien's Smoke Signal. This little number allows me to add one Level 3 or lower Six Samurai monster to my hand and I choose Legendary Six Samurai – Kageki and I instantly summon him.'' James said and to the field appeared a warrior with four arms with a sword in each one.
Attr: Wind Type: Warrior Atk: 200 Def: 2000 Level: 3
''When this card is summoned I can Special Summon one Level 4 or lower Six Samurai monster from my hand and I choose Kagemusha of the Six Samurai.'' James said and Kageki was joined by another smaller warrior holding a spear.
Attr: Earth Type: Warrior/Tuner Atk: 400 Def: 1800 Level: 2
''Now I tune Kageki and Kagemusha together. When Six Samurais cry for help the legendary warrior appears! Its powerful blade crushes all enemies! Synchro Summon! Rise, Legendary Six Samurai – Shi En.'' James called out and a warrior in a red armor with a large blue sword appeared.
Attr: Dark Type: Warrior Atk: 2500 Def: 1400 Level: 5
''Don't think that I'm done! Now I special summon Legendary Six Samurai – Kizan and Grandmaster of the Six Samurai thanks to their own effects.'' James said and left to Shi En appeared a warrior with grey armor and golden sword. To Shi En's right appeared an older warrior with a smaller sword.
Kizan: Attr: Earth Type: Warrior Atk: 1800 Def: 500
Grandmaster: Attr: Earth Type: Warrior Atk: 2100 Def: 800
''These cards can be special summoned if I control a Six Samurai monster. Also since there are two different Six Samurai monsters in the field Legendary Six Samurai – Kizan gains 300 Attack and Defense Points.'' James said and samurai's Attack rose to 2100 and Defense rose to 800. ''Then I set one card face-down and end my turn.'' James said satisfied with his turn.
James's Hand: 1
''I have Six Strike – Triple Impact in my hand, Mirror Force as a face-down and Shi En on the field. There's no way he can win.'' James thought. Rick drew a card and observed his hand.
''…I activate Dark Hole to destroy all monsters on the field.'' Rick said and a large dark hole appeared to the field.
''Not so fast! I activate Shi En's effect! Once per turn I can negate the activation and the effect of your spell card and destroy it.'' James said and Shi En rushed forward and sliced through the dark hole. Rick however just smirked. ''He fell for it.'' Rick thought.
''I activate Ritual Foregone. By paying 1000 Lifepoints I can special summon one Ritual Monster from my hand and I choose Demise, King of the Armageddon.'' Rick said. Green light flashed on Rick's side of the field and soon to the field appeared a huge intimidating monster with a scythe.
Attr: Dark Type: Fiend Atk: 2400 Def: 2000 Level: 8
Rick's LP: 3000
''Monster summoned by Ritual Foregone can't attack and is destroyed during the End Phase. However I can still activate its effect. By paying 2000 Lifepoints I can destroy all other cards on the field.'' Rick said. He smirked when he saw the panicked expression on his opponent face.
''It destroys all other cards on the field!'' James said shocked. Demise hit its scythe to the ground and the shockwave destroyed all cards on James's side of the field. ''Since Grandmaster was destroyed by your card effect I can add one Six Samurai monster from my grave to my hand and I choose Legendary Six Samurai – Kizan.'' James said and hoped to recover from this.
Rick's LP: 1000
''Next I tribute my Demise, King of the Armageddon to summon Great Maju Garzett.'' Rick said and on the place of Demise appeared a hideous looking monster.
Attr: Dark Type: Fiend Atk: 0 Def: 0 Level: 6
Once James saw Garzett's points he started to laugh. ''Zero Attack and Defense Points? That's just pathetic. I win on my next turn.'' James said confident on his victory.
''Great Maju Garzett's Attack Points are equal to twice the Original Attack Points of the monster I used to tribute this card. So Great Maju Garzett's Attack Points are now…'' Rick asked from James. Horror covered his face.
''4800 Attack Points…'' He said shocked. Rick nodded and ordered for the Great Maju Garzett to attack. Great Maju Garzett punched James and sent him couple steps backward.
James's LP: 0
Rick smiled evilly right after his victory. Everyone looked at him shocked. Nobody believed he could defeat James so quickly. Some girls stared at him dreamily and forget about their own match.
''Very good Rick and James. You may leave now.'' Teacher said and nodded at their direction. Both of them nodded back and left the room. Once they were out from the room, Rick pinned James against the wall.
''What…are you doing?'' James asked obviously shocked. Rick smirked at him.
''Your deck…give it to me!'' Rick yelled. James looked at him like he was mad.
''What are you talking about? Why should I give you my deck?'' James yelled back. Rick snapped his fingers and two tall men dressed in black suites appeared behind him.
''Either you give me your deck or my friends make your face look like pancake.'' Rick threatened. James turned pale and threw his deck to him and started running away. Rick bended down to pick up the deck. ''Once again I got a new deck and this seems pretty powerful.'' Rick said and walked off laughing evilly.
''Wow you're such an awesome duelist Rick!'' Rua complimented during the lunch break. They were all in school's cafeteria eating their so-called food. Rick just smiled.
''Thank you, but it's not a big deal.'' Rick said modestly.
''Not a big deal? You defeated the class's best student on your first turn. That's a very big deal!'' Tenpei said. Rick just ignored him. Sly kept glaring him and Rick returned the gesture. Everyone else in the table just sighed and continued their lunch.
Rest of the day went peacefully. Sly and Rick had occasional glaring contests with each other. Sly walked close to Ruka so Rick couldn't try anything. Ruka was touched by the fact that he was worried, but she also thought he might be little overprotective.
Soon it was night and all students were asleep. Well not all. Sly couldn't get any sleep for some reason. When he looked at the clock he noticed it was 23:30. Realizing that he couldn't get any sleep he stood up and changed to his normal clothes. He went outside to get some fresh air. Once outside he started to walk around the school. He wasn't really going anywhere, but somehow he had walked in front of Obelisk Blue Girls dorm. Then he heard some rustling in the bushes and turned to the direction of the sound. He was surprised when out of the bushes came Rick.
''What are you doing here?'' Sly asked angrily. Rick looked surprised for a moment before regaining his composure.
''I should ask you the same question.'' Rick said angrily. The two glared at each other again. ''But if you want to know…I came to see Ruka.'' Rick said with an evil smile. Sly glared at him even harder.
''I don't think she wants to see you at the middle of the night. Besides what do you want with her anyway?'' Sly asked angrily. Rick chuckled and leaned against a nearby tree.
''Oh nothing…maybe give her pleasure you can never give her.'' Rick said his smirk increasing and Sly's glare hardening.
''She's only 14!'' Sly yelled at him. Rick looked at him confused and then got an amused smirk on his face.
''You got the wrong idea. Seriously Sly, get your mind off of the gutter.'' Rick said. Sly's cheeks turned slightly pink, but he ignored it for now.
''Ruka belongs to me! You can't have her.'' Sly said at him angrily. Rick just laughed again.
''Maybe you would like to duel for Ruka.'' Rick suggested. Sly stared at him like he was insane.
''Why should I duel with you?'' Sly asked confused.
''If you win I leave this academy for good, but if I win you break up with Ruka and let me have her.'' Rick said. Sly pondered this. It would be risky, but if he would win he would never have to deal with this creep again.
''Fine then. I promise I would never let anyone hurt Ruka again and I intend to keep that promise.'' Sly said. Rick smirked and took out his golden duel disk while Sly took his normal Ra Yellow duel disk.
''Duel!'' Both yelled and activated their duel disk at the same time.
Sly's LP: 4000
Rick's LP: 4000
Ruka tiredly rose from her bed. She had definitely heard someone yell duel. She looked at the clock and wondered who would want to duel at 23:45 and outside of her and Patty's room. She was surprised when she saw that Patty was still asleep, but she guessed that Patty was better sleeper than her. She walked out to the balcony to say some choice words to the duelists, but when she was that Sly and Rick were dueling all those words were left in her throat.
''Sly! Rick! Why are you dueling at the middle of the night?'' Ruka asked confused. Both of them looked up at Ruka.
''Ah Ruka. Good to see that you're awake. We're just dueling to see which one of us gets you.'' Rick said with an evil smile. Ruka looked at him like he was crazy.
''You two are dueling…to decide who gets me? Am I some kind of a prize?'' Ruka asked angrily. She couldn't believe they were going to duel like that without telling her.
''Sorry Ruka, but I'll promise I can beat him and then he'll leave.'' Sly said and focused her attention to her. Ruka tilted her head a little.
''He'll leave?'' She asked confused. Sly nodded.
''Yes that was the promise. Besides shouldn't you be glad that he leaves? He's been hitting on you whole time.'' Sly said. Ruka still didn't fully understand.
''Aren't you little overprotective? I mean it's sweet of you, but isn't this going little too far?'' Ruka asked from him. Before Sly could answer Rick cut him off.
''Oh can we just start the duel. It has been five minutes already.'' Rick said impatiently. Both Sly and Ruka looked at him and then each other. Ruka smiled a little.
''Well you better win. We just got together yesterday after all.'' Ruka said and gave him thumbs up. Sly nodded and glared at Rick who looked amused.
''You've been together for just one day? Destroying your love will be quite easy then.'' Rick said mocking Sly. Sly's glare hardened, but he focused on the match for now. He drew the sixth card to his hand.
''I start! I summon Gem Angel Murasaki in Attack Mode.'' Sly said and a violet fairy with a lance appeared.
Attr: Earth Type: Fairy Atk: 1900 Def: 1900 Level: 4
''When this card is summoned I can special summon one level 4 or lower Gemknight monster from my hand and I choose Gemknight Sapphia and I summon it in Defense Mode.'' Sly said and to the field appeared a blue monster with a blue crystal shield.
Attr: Earth Type: Aqua Atk: 0 Def: 2100 Level: 4
''Then I set one card face-down and end my turn.'' Sly said. ''I wonder what deck he uses this time. I have to be careful.''
Sly's Hand: 3
''Gemknight? Never heard of these cards, but I can't wait till they're all mine.'' Rick said confusing Sly.
''Yours? What are you talking about?'' Sly asked sounding a bit angry. Rick smiled evilly again.
''Every time I beat someone I get their decks.'' Rick said simply like it was no big deal.
''Their decks?'' Sly said and then remembered Rick's album and all those deck boxes inside it. ''Don't tell me…those decks in your album are the decks of the opponents you have beaten.'' Sly said. Rick didn't answer, but his smirk definitely answered the question. ''So it is true…'' Sly said little horrified. To think that someone would disgrace dueling like that.
''Who cares about that? It's my turn now. I summon…Legendary Six Samurai - Mizuho.'' Rick said and front of him appeared a monster in red armor with twin blades.
Attr: Fire Type: Warrior Atk: 1600 Def: 1200 Level: 3
''Six Samurai? You stole James's deck too!'' Sly asked shocked. Rick nodded smirking wickedly. ''This is bad. Six Samurais are very tough to beat.'' Sly thought worried.
''If you're worried now just wait till you see this! I Special Summon Legendary Six Samurai – Shinai and Legendary Six Samurai – Kizan through their own effects.'' Rick said and next to Mizuho appeared a warrior in blue armor wielding some kind of club weapon and a warrior in grey armor wielding a spear.
Shinai: Attr: Water Type: Warrior Atk: 1500 Def: 1300 Level: 3
Kizan: Attr: Earth Type: Warrior Atk: 2100 (Effect) Def: 800 (Effect) Level: 4
''Now it's time for Six Strike – Triple Impact!'' Rick said and a spell card flashed on the field. Six Samurais sharpened their weapons.
''Oh no! It's Six Strike – Triple Impact!'' Sly said worried. He had seen that card in a duel before and it wasn't a pretty sight.
''Six Strike – Triple Impact can only be activated when I control at least 3 different Six Samurai monsters. Now I can destroy all face-up monsters on your side of the field!'' Rick yelled out. All three Six Samurais jumped to Sly's side of the field and demolished the two monsters that were standing there.
''So much did those two do.'' Sly said regretting this duel already.
''You're now wide open! All samurais attack him directly and finish this duel.'' Rick commanded and three samurais jumped straight at Sly.
''No Sly!'' Ruka yelled while Rick laughed evilly at the background.

Me: Why yes…yes she is. Just like Rua was in the anime until he started to do something important
Rua: Hey! That's an insult…right?
Me: Maybe...preview if you may.
''Give up Sly! You can't win against my Six Samurai Deck.''
''It's not yours! You stole it like everything else!''
''I have you in a lockdown and you can't escape from it.''
''Six Samurais are powerful, but I have a card that can stop them.''
