Hi everyone! It's Rosestar48 here! Today we'll learn how Asuka meets Yusho and we'll get to see Serena's dueling skills.
ARC Area Project
As the students happily Duel in the second You Show Duel School. "I see, Reiji Akaba is leading the Lancers himself…" Yusho muses. "I left the Standard because of Reiji Akaba" he explains. "Huh? You and Reiji Akaba…? But why…" Yuya surprised. Asuka watches from the doorway.
(Flashback)
"Three years ago, Reiji Akaba went across dimensions looking for his father" Yusho explains. "I'm not done talking to you!" Reiji furiously yelling at Leo. "What do you mean by advance and destroy!?" He asked. "It is to united all the worlds" Leo claims. Reiji was forcibly returned to the Standard Dimension by his father; the dimensional travel device that had sent him back breaking just as his father had promised. He appeared in the grounds of the Leo Corporation and looked up at the tower "This is..." Reiji said.
At night, Reiji was shown looking at a screen bearing the words "Standard Dimension", "Fusion Dimension", "Synchro Dimension and "Xyz Dimension", all with streams linking at the center of the screen. "After being sent back to the Standard Dimension by his father, Reiji...came to a conclusion after reviewing what was left of his father's research" Yusho explains. "So this means my father...is trying to rule over these four worlds using Duelling!" Reiji explains to Yusho. "I had to..." He speaks hesitantly. "No...I chose to take over the Leo Corporation in order to stop my father's ambition" He confidence explains. "And for our military force to head him off, I need a leader. I would like you to be that leader!" Reiji tells Yusho. "His emotions reached me, so much that it hurt. But if it was me...A man who helped build up the Real Solid Vision System and Action Duel alongside Leo Akaba...I thought I could talk to him as equal. I forcefully used a dimensional transfer device that Reiji's research team had been developing on their own, and made my way to Academia" Yusho explains.
(Flashback ends)
"That was..." Yuya realizes when his dad did that. "Yes. The day I had my Championship Match with Strong Ishijima" Yusho confirms. Yuya gasps
(Flashback)
"Uncle Yusho will come! I'll fight you until then!" Yuzu vows. "That's enough. Stop Yuzu!" Shuzo tells Yuzu before pulled her away. "Duel me!" Yuzu yells.
(Flashback ends)
Yuya covers his mouth "I want to tell Yuzu that right now...My father went on his own to save everyone!" He declares. "But I didn't make it to Academia...When I came to my sense; I was in a different dimension. There, I met Duellist who used Xyz monsters. I taught them that Duels are to bring everyone smiles" Yusho explains. He remember Katio, Alan and Sayaka "But eventually, that peaceful city...was attacked by Academia" Yusho states. Yusho suddenly spasms "Sensei..." a Voice said and two girls came in "Sensei, it's time for your treatment" One of the girls states. "Yeah" Yusho agrees and he reaches for his cane. Yuya moves to help him but Yusho wards him off and allows the girls to escort him away. "Is his leg hurt?" Yuya sadly mused. "Yes, it's because of Edo..." Asuka explains. "Asuka, why did Academia start the dimensional war?!" Yuya asked. "Academia students are fighting to create a utopia of peace for everyone" Asuka explains. "Huh?" Yuya surprised at the mention of a utopia. "Their plan is called the ARC Area Project" Askuka states. "ARC Area Project?" Yuya repeats. "The Professor's plan to bring the four dimensions to create a utopia. But is reality…" Asuka explains.
(Flashback)
Askua remembers being at Academia; seeing Academia students standing in a cross; blue-jacketed students making up the front arm; red-jacketed students making up the bottom arm, and yellow-jacketed students forming the side arms. "It begun an all-out war for Academia to rule over the other dimensions. One year earlier, it was officially announced, and the Commander-in-Chief chosen was Edo. I wasn't chosen for the first squadron that was formed nut, I had planned to join the forces once the order was given" she explains.
(Flashback ends).
She lays Yuya's goggles and a change of clothes "I was taught that the ARC Area Project was doing what was right in order to save the world. And I had confidence in my Duelling skills to serve that role" Asuka admits. Yuya listens in the shower "I've left you a change of clothes her" Asuka explains. "Thank you, Asuka" Yuya said. "Take your time" Asuka tells him. "The first squadron had come back!" Asuka remembers as she walks away.
(Flashback)
"The heroes have come home!" Someone announces. Four students in red jackets conversed with each other "How many did you turn into cards?" The first student asked. "I got 25, you?" The second replies. "31! I won!" first student replied and laughed. "That was really fun! It was just like a hunting game!" A third student comments. "I hope they give us the next order to deploy soon! A Fourth claims. Off to the side "What's wrong? What happened? Everyone else looks so happy..." Asuka asked a purple-haired girl in a red jacket. "There's no way I could smile! Doing something like that...I can't believe they can just smile like nothing wrong!" The purple-haired girl claimed. Two students resembling Ryo Marufuji and Daichi Misawa walked past jovially "Something like that...?" Asuka asked after they were out of earshot. "Turing people...into cards!" the girl explains. "Well, we do have to settle things one way or another. There are always sacrifices that will come with doing what is right. Our enemies are Duellist as we, so-"Asuka points out. "It wasn't just Duellist!" the girl protests. "Huh?" Asuka surprised. "The order we received when we got there was complete subjugation of the Xyz Dimension! We were ordered to turn all of the civilians into cards as well!" The girl explains. "Civilians?" Asuka shocked. "Yes...Everyone, even those who weren't resisting! We turned countless civilians into cards as they begged for mercy. Women, children, the elderly, everyone!" the girl explains. "Is that really the right thing!?" the girl asked. "W-What..." Asuka gasped. "I don't ever want to do something like that!" the girl protest before embracing Asuka. "Please, run away with me!" the girl encourages Asuka. "Run away? Me?" Asuka asked. "I don't want you to have to experience something like that, Asuka!" the girl explains.
She left Academia with the girl on a speedboat "I believed in Academia, and the Professor. I thought that making the four dimensions one with the ARC Area Project was a wonderful thing. Uniting everyone and making a utopia a reality... I thought I could make her understand that too...But..." Asuka said. but they were ambushed by Juvenile Officers the moment they stepped onto shore. The Officers shone spotlights on them from Armor Canine – Bullcopter "Even those who are lacking in loyalty can be use to the ARC Area Project" the officer tells them. "If use...?" Asuka asked, and the purple-haired girl rushed forwards "Stand back" She tells Asuka. But the Officers immediately sealed her into a card, much to Asuka's horror. Performapal Sky Magician then appeared and destroyed the Bull Copters, "What!?" alerting Asuka. It then blasted the three Juvenile Officers into the sea, before disappearing as Yusho stood there, wearing an Xyz Dimension Duel Disk.
(Flashback ends)
"So that's how you met him?" Yuya observe. He walks into the room, newly clothed, a white top with a sleeveless jacketed, gray trouser and black trainer, and towelling his hair off. "Yes...But then he collapsed right in the spot" Asuka explains. "Huh? Did Edo get him?" Yuya asked. "Yes, it was just after he had been thrown across dimensions from Duelling him in the Xyz Dimension" Asuka replies. "He told me as much as he could. What happened in the Xyz Dimension. Everyone here...all the kids who have scars in their heart from being dispatched to the Xyz Dimension" She explains. "Yusho thought he could teach these kids that Duelling is for bringing smiles to others. So that's why I created this You Show Duel School with him. My dream is to save as many of my comrades as I can from Academia, and eventually Academia itself..." Asuka claims. "Asuka! Let me help you with that dream! I'll do anything that I can!" Yuya interrupts, vowing. Two students, a boy and a girl, suddenly run in supporting another girl "Asuka, we have an emergency!" the boy declares. "What happend?" Asuka asked as the students lower the girl to the ground. "W-We were trying to rescue this kid and Academia found us!" the male student explains. "Our comrades were...!" the girl gasped.
The five endangered You Show students stand in the harbour, facing off against Serena. Serena holds a card containing another student and the five students look at him furiously "Intend of running away, you stayed behind to avenge your comrades...What beautiful friendship. But I'm sure you'll regret it" Serena said. "Oh well...I was ordered to turn all of those who oppose Academia into cards anyways" She comments. She flicks the card into the ground "Go ahead and show me what you're capable of. I was looking to kill some time after all" Serena suggests. The students were surprised. "Let's at least make this fun" Serena suggest activating her Duel Disk. "DUEL!" All six Duellists declare.
"I Summon Lunalight Green Caracal from my hand" Serena starts (ATK: 800). "And I activate the Continuous Spell: Lunalight Worship….to Special Summon Lunalight Blue Cat with its effect negated" she continues (ATK: 1600). "All players cannot attack on their first turn. So with that I end my turn here" Serena said.
"My turn!"a thin boy with spiky teal hair declares and draws. "I activate the Spell Card: Polymerization from my hand! I fuse my Steamroid, Drillroid and Submarineroid in my hand! Fusion Summon! Come forth! Super Vehicroid Jumbo Drill!" He declares (ATK: 3000). "You're a deserter who ran away from Academia, right? I'm amazed you can still Summon a Fusion monster with no shame!" Serena observe. "Shut up! Academia should be ashamed of themselves! I don't want to sadden people with Duelling anymore! I swore that I'll Duel for what is truly right!" The boy tells Serena. "What is truly right...?" Serena confused. "To make everyone smiles with Duelling! I end my turn here!" the teal-haired student states. "Make everyone smile?" Serena repeats. "That's obviously impossible! Duelling is a match, you know! The one who smiles are the winners!" She burst out laughing, protesting. "Our teacher told us...True Duels make not the winners, but everyone playing and watching smile!" the sole female student declares. "My turn!" She declares and draws. "I activate the Spell Card: Polymerization! And I fuse the Big Koala and Des Kangaroo in my hand! Fusion Summon! Come forth! Master of Oz!" She declares (ATK: 4200). "Duelling has the power to make everyone smile! I end my turn she declares. "Then I'd like you to smile when I turn you into a card. Because I don't plan on losing" Serena casually comments. "As if!" The third student, a dark blue-haired boy, tells Serena. "How do you plan to win five on one?!" he asked.
"I'll have you laugh your fill as you lose! My turn!" he declares and draws. "I activate the Spell Card: Polymerization, and fuse Ojama Yellow, Green and Black in my hand! Fusion Summon! Come forth! Ojama King!" He declares (DEF: 3000). Serena's eyes widen and she bursts out laughing "Hold on! What the heck is that?!" She asked. "Look you're already smiling!" The student comments. "As long as Ojama King is on the field, your usable monster card zone are reduced by three!" he explains. Three red "X"s appear between Serena's monsters and the Ojama Trio appear in them leering at Selena "Both their appearance and effect is really unpleasant..." Serena disgustingly comments.
The fourth student, a ginger-haired boy, turns to a blonde boy "Let's go!"He encourages him. "My turn!" he declares and draws. "I summon V-Tiger Jet from my hand! (ATK: 1600) And I activate the Continuous Spell: Frontline Base and Special Summon W-Wing Catapult from my hand!" The ginger student said (ATK: 1300). "Oh? You aren't going to use Fusion?" Serena asked. The boy smiles "I can perform a Fusion Summon without using it!" he claims. "I banish V-Tiger Jet and W-Wing Catapult and Fusion Summon VW-Tiger Catapult!" he declares (ATK: 2000). "So you can do it like that also?" Serena impress. "You're a lot more interesting than the last one" She comments, much to the Ojama Duellist's chagrin. "Laugh while you still can!" The ginger-haired boy tells Serena. "I set one card and end my turn!" He said. "My turn!" The blonde student declares and draws. "I summon X-Head Cannon! (ATK: 1800). And I activate the Continuous Spell: Frontline Base and Special Summon Y-Dragon Head from my hand!" He declares (ATK: 1500). "Then I activate the Spell Card: Foolish Burial! I send Z-Metal Tank from my Deck to my Graveyard! Now, I activate the Spell Card: Iron Call from my hand! And with it, I Special Summon the Z-Metal Tank I sent to my Graveyard with its effect negated!" He said (ATK: 1500). "With this I now control an X, Y and Z monster!" He explains. "I banish these three monsters and Fusion Summon XYZ-Dragon Cannon!" he declares. Electricity sparks between the three monsters, which join together as "Y-Dragon Head" sheds its wings and folds its legs (ATK: 2800). "You're not too bad yourself, either! Truly a big difference than that last guy!" Serena admits. The Ojama Duellist was annoyed "You won't be able to talk like that for much longer!" the blonde Duellist warns Selena. "I activate XYZ-Dragon Cannon's monster effect!" he declares. "I send one card from my hand to the Graveyard and destroy your Blue Cat!" He explains as he discarding another copy of Y-Dragon Head. "Aww man, I let my guard down since you couldn't attack on the first turn...But you took them out with an effect" Serena lightly comments.
"I'm not done yet! This isn't all we've got! My brother and I aren't even at our full strength yet!" The ginger-haired student tells Selena. The brothers exchange nods "I activate the Trap Card: Fellow's Gift!" The ginger-haired brother said. "I transfer control of VW-Tiger Catapult to my younger brother!" He explains. "Thanks, brother!" The younger brother said. "I banish his VW-Tiger Catapult and my XYZ-Dragon Cannon! And Fusion Summon VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon!" He declares. Z-Metal Tank and W-Wing Catapult detach from their other monsters, Z-Metal Tank taking the wings of Y-Dragon Head with it, and W-Wing Catapult splits into legs, while the body of Z-Metal Tank attaches to the back of X-Head Cannon and X-Head Cannon grabs the back cannons of the treads of Z-Metal Tank. V-Tiger Jet then attaches to the head of X-Head Cannon to complete the monster (ATK: 3000). "Impressive. As expected of brothers, you're perfectly in sync!" Serena praises the siblings. "VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon's monster effect!" the younger brother declares. "Once per turn, I can banish a card my opponent controls!" He explains. "I banish Green Caracal!" He declares. "How's that? Now all of the monsters you've Summoned are gone!" he asked Serena. But Serena just laughs "And now Green Caracal's monster effect activates!" she said. "When this card leaves the field it gives all of my opponents' Special Summoned monsters a Lunalight Counter!" She explains. Four yellow moon symbols appear and stuck themselves onto the four monsters, much to the shock of the You Show students "What?!" ginger-haired student gasped. "Now then, hurry up and end your turn. Because it's my turn to have fun next!" Serena encourages the blonde student. "I-I end my turn..." The younger brother warily.
"Then here I come!" Serena comments. "My turn!" she declares and draws. "At this moment, I pay the Continuous Spell: Lunalight Worship's cost of 800 LP (Serena's LP: 3200). And I activate is effect" She states. "I Special Summon Blue Cat from my Graveyard with its effect negated" She declares (ATK: 1600). "Next I activate the Spell Card: Fusion Draw!" She said. "Now for each Fusion Monster on the Field, I get to draw one card from my Deck!" she explains. "Next, Next I Summon Lunalight Purple Butterfly from my hand!" She said (ATK: 1000). "Then it's finally time for that to appear" Serena comments and she licks her lips, to the You Show students' fear. "I activate the Spell Card: Polymerization from my hand! And fuse Blue Cat and Purple Butterfly!" Serena declares. "Blue cat that prowls through the darkness! Butterfly with violet poison! Spiral into the moon's gravity and become a new power! Fusion Summon! Come to me! Beautiful beast that dances in the moonlight! Lunalight Cat Dancer!" Serena chants (ATK: 2400). The students recoil in horror from the Assassin Dancers "Next I activate the Spell Card: Luna Glow!" Serena said. "This card allows me to increase Lunalight Cat Dancer's ATK by the total of the ATK of all the Special Summoned monsters my opponents controls this turn" She explains. "What?!" The teal-haired student gasp. "Special Summoned?!" The girl gasped. "All of it?! The blonde student gasped. The ribbon on Lunalight Cat Dancer begins to glow, giving off a sliver light as blue energy rushes into them (Lunalight Cat Dancer's ATK: 12600) "An attack of 12600?!" The older brother repeats in shock.
"Next, I activate the Spell Card: Luna Mimic!" Serena said. "Now Cat Dancer can gain the effect of a monster my opponent controls" She explains. "I'll be using your monster's effect!" She points to Super Vehicroid Jumbo Drill. "Mine?! Super Vehicroid Jumbo Drill's?!" The teal-haired You Show student surprised. "Yes, since it allows me to deal piercing damage onto monsters in Defense Position!" Serena cheerfully points out and the blue-haired students both gasp as they realize what Serena was intending to do. "So then, shall we begin?" Serena suggests. "I'll start with you, the one with no monsters" She said. "Go! Attack directly, Lunalight Cat Dancer!" Serena orders. Cat Dancer leaps up a kicks past the boy, drawing blood (ginger-haired boy's LP: 0). "Next, I send Lunalight Green Caracal to my Graveyard and activate its effect" Serena said. "This turn, Lunalight Cat Dancer must attack every monsters with a Lunalight Counter on it!" She explains. "Go! Attack Super Vehicroid Jumbo Drill!" She orders and Cat Dancer leaps up in the air. It thin did a dive kick and destroys Super Vehicroid Jumbo Drill (teal-haired You Show student's LP: 0). "Attack Master of Oz!" She continues and "Master of Oz" turns away as Cat Dancers' daggers slices it (Female You Show Student's LP: 0). "Attack Ojama King..." Serena frowns in displeasure and disdainfully orders. Ojama King", who turns tail and runs even as it is Sliced up.(blue-haired You Show student's LP: 0). "Finally, attack VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult!" She orders. Cat Dancer did a dancer with a full moon behind it a shoot out a beam of yellow energy at VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult the light binding VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon before the stream hits. VWXYZ Dragon Catapult Cannon was destroyed (The blonde student's LP: 0).The holograms disappeared "Well, that was a letdown" Serena comments. She activates the function of her Duel Disk and transforms all five defeated You Show students into cards. "This didn't even manage to kill sometime..." Serena comments as she takes out all five cards.
Yuya and Asuka then arrives "Oh? So your here too?" Serena surprised to see Yuya. "You know her?!" Asuka asked Yuya. "Yes...She's been chasing me through the Standard and Synchro Dimensions!" Yuya explains. "That's rude, not even saying my name?" Serena comments. "I have one, you know? It's Serena" She introduce herself. "Please call me that, Yuya..." She tells him. "But I', glad we met. I'm sure the Professor will be happy as well" Serena tells Yuya as Asuka steps in front of him as Serena advances on them. Serena hunches over as she walks towards them "Now come with me" She tells Yuya. Yuya and Asuka steps back in apprehension.
"You bastard! This time you won't get away!" Rin yells. Yuya and Asuka separate as Rin attempts to ram Serena, but Yuya's bracelet activates and Serena was teleported away, Rin barely managing to skid to a stop at the edge of the harbour. "Huh? She disappeared?!" Asuka shocked. Rin removed her helmet "Where did she go!?" She angrily asked. "Rin! Why are you here?!" Yuya gasped. "You too! You're alive!" Rin asked. "Yuya!" She cries and tearfully runs to embrace her, much to Yuya and Asuka's surprise,"Yuya!" Rin cries earning her a swat from Yuya's fan. Asuka was shocked at first, but is soon trying not to laugh. Rin rubs her head "I was certain thatSergey had gotten you! And that you had passed on..." She admits. "Don't say creepy things like that!" Yuya tells her. "What's this?" Asuka wonders. Rin gets to her feet "More importantly, did you know, Yuya? Academia is here! So that means Yugo has to be there!" She asked Yuya. "Not just Yugo, Yuto and Yuri are there too!" Yuya replies. "Yuri too?!" Rin surprised. "Yes, he got taken back, Right in front of Yuzu and I..." Yuya confirms.
At Academia, the Professor slouches on his throne "According to a report from Noro on the dispatch squad...Those who use Pendulum Summoning are in Heartland. We have confirmed that Lancers have appeared there. They must also be eliminated so that the ARC Area Project continues without complications" He explains to two subordinates. "Can you handle that?" He suggest to his audience. "Well, it's not like the slow one is going to be of any use on that end. And Edo is lacking in actual field experience too" A silver-haired women comments. "Yeah" Her blond haired companion agrees. "That means our power are necessary for this" She comments. The silver haired woman smiles "I'm looking forward to it" She comments.
