Chapter Fifty-Two: Division Winners and Changes

Aichi's POV

I was smiling when I saw so many people having fun at the Tournament before I heard Shin ask if we think the store is doing really well today. I didn't bother answering before I heard Misaki say that they'd have to hire new employees if the Shop was like this every day.

Shin said it was great to have so many but he's even more enthusiastic that they're having fun. Taishi said that the money doesn't hurt either before Shin stuttered on saying something when Assista Cat wanted to make mischief again.

He stepped over the Computer Monitor trying to tap a key on the Keyboard before Shin took it away. "Assista Cat I don't think that's very nice" I said before I could stop myself when I heard Assista Cat call Shin a meanie for doing that.

Time Skip: a few Minutes

I was walking around wishing I could see how the Matches are going before Kamui called me over. He told me that Emi's doing really well making me smile "that's not surprising, though it is in some cases when she told me she didn't want anyone in the family to play" I said embarrassing Emi.

"I-I didn't say that" she told me making me laugh lightly at her when I saw she was embarrassed. "It's fine Emi, I'm glad you like to play" I told her making her happy this time instead of embarrassed.

She went back to her game when I heard Misaki tell me that I don't want to know whose number one in the Senior Division making me smile. "Morikawa right?" I asked before she asked how I knew that.

"Anyone can be good at Cardfight with a balanced Deck, even Morikawa" I said before Shin said that he was checking the results now and only needed to save and print. I laughed lightly when Assista Cat asked him in a scary tone if that was how Shin was supposed to talk to him when he took the Keyboard away from his paws.

Shin called him a 'Cat' but he's supposed to call him Assista Cat in a polite tone or else something will happen that apparently scares Shin. When he redid what he said Assista Cat thanked him by licking his paw and purring.

I didn't bother listening to what Kamui and Shin were talking about before I heard Shin call a Team Meeting, without Kai since he's not here. He told us we've been good sports at joining the Tournament but we need to get our heads in the game for the Nationals.

I nodded at that with a sad smile since I'm not quite sure I'm going to like what's going to happen before the National's Matches even begin. Darkquartz has been screeching in my head all day and that normally means that Darkpride is going to do something that Darkquartz likes but I don't.

Shin said we should start with something but he didn't say what it was when he picked up a box and put it on the counter. He opened the box showing, apparently, Booster Packs from the newest Expansion Pack.

I only know that's what it is because Misaki was the one who said it, Kamui picked up two things from the box asking if we were opening packs to rebuild our Decks. Shin nodded saying we were before we opened some, I had asked Michael and my Paladins to help me look through the cards since I can't see the new ones.

As soon as I thought that though I felt myself frowning before I gripped my head not dropping a card surprisingly. I put the cards down when Darkquartz screeched louder which was worrying me because I know Dren isn't here.

I heard Morikawa talking through the screeching so I looked over opening my eyes to see him jumping around. He said that he was better than everyone else there just because he's yet to lose a Match.

"He's definitely unique" I said wincing when the screeching quieted down so I stopped gripping my head. "They're perfect for each other" I said when I saw the man who had taken the paper from me, twice now, say that I was his student after Morikawa said I was his student.

They were exactly the same in thinking that and they're both arrogant when it comes to Vanguard. I didn't listen to what they were saying for the rest of it before I went back to the cards I was hearing about.

Shin said something about building our Decks before he realized we were already doing that. I felt Kamui was having an internal battle between a few cards but heard that he wasn't considering one from Alfred.

I couldn't hear anything else before I heard Darkquartz screeching again making me drop my cards on the counter once I heard Kai's voice. He said something about Kamui putting Street Bouncer in his Deck since it was one he didn't consider apparently.

I gripped my head with two hands when I felt a hand on my left shoulder and another on my right. They're both male hands so I'm guessing one is Kamui's and the other is Kai's before I heard Kai's voice asking me what was wrong, I could tell he was worried.

"I'm fine, I just have to get used to it again" I said knowing they were confused, Darkquartz stopped screeching when I felt only Kai's hand on my shoulder. I put my hands on the counter thanking him before I remembered what Kamui and Kai agreed to do once I had heard Blaster Blade tell me Kamui put Street Bouncer in his Deck.

"Don't you have a Match to play?" I asked him when I looked at him, he nodded but I could see he was worried. "I'm fine nothing's wrong" I said before he nodded hesitantly leaving.

Misaki asked if I would play her so she can test the changes she made making me smile once I had heard Kai and Kamui stand their Vanguards. I was laughing lightly when I saw Kamui trying to get to Emi to stop Reiji or Eiji from fighting her.

I smiled at Kai though when I saw him grab Kamui's collar since Kamui's an idiot for thinking that she needs help to win her Matches. I stifled a laugh when Kamui basically called Kai an Opossum when he meant to say opponent.

"You can challenge her anytime Kamui, she's not reserved you know" I said when I kept hearing Kamui repeat 'why? Why?' under his breath but loud enough for us to hear. I looked at Emi to see she was Enthusiastic before I looked back at Misaki who was Jolly.

I heard that Eiji and Reiji lost before I felt sorry for them, not because they lost but because Kamui was mad at them for even challenging Emi and Mai. I touched the top of Kamui's head calming the fire that was raging around him before he looked at me.

"You can't blame them Kamui, she's the strongest fighter in the Junior Division and I bet they faced all the others in the Division to" I said before he nodded saying that I was probably right. I walked back over to where the counter is standing next to Izaki, I wasn't sure if Kai wants to stand next to me or not, I was somewhat in the middle of the two after all.

Emi was announced the winner of the Junior Division making me smile before I told her in a text that she should stop called Assista Cat Manager and just call him Assista Cat. "Kamui" I said looking at him when he was about to glare at Eiji and Reiji when they said it was all good because Emi still won the Division.

He didn't glare at them making them thank me without actually saying anything, they mouthed it instead. Shin said that winner of the Senior Division was Morikawa who was really excited about winning it.

I sighed though when I heard Kamui say that he can't call Morikawa a 'loser' anymore, it'll be different though when he goes back to his normal Deck. I felt bad for Shin and the others when Morikawa bought the Trial Deck just for the Grade 3 Units.

Time Skip: Next Day, Card Capitol

I got a text from Ren as soon as I heard Taishi say that dreaming of Kai isn't something he wants to do. When I felt what it said I blushed jumping slightly and getting everyone's eyes on me except for Morikawa who was busy standing his Vanguard.

I took a call when Ren decided to call me instead of text me making me hiss at him when he asked the text instead. "Stop asking that already" I told him when I went over to the wall trying to whisper it but I whisper yelled instead.
