"Stand and draw." Jun said, simply. "Others may call you a villain, but in truth, you sought your own justice. Ride!" He declared, tossing a card, as a larger Zeal, boasting vibrant colors appeared. "Galaxy Anti-Hero, Zeal! Imaginary Gift: Force 1!" Jun added, tossing the marker to his Vanguard circle.
"Force 1..? Doesn't Dimension Police have enough ways to increase their Vanguard's power..?" Kyros wondered.
"I intentionally chose Force 1. You'll see why in a moment. With the same copy of my Vanguard, come! Progenitor Dragon!" Jun declared, as a beacon of light descended, as the familiar star dragon appeared. "Progenitor Dragon of Horizon Limit, Origorem. Galaxy Anti-Hero, Zeal's Stride Skill." Jun added, counterblasting and soulblasting. "I reduce Spectrum's power by 5000." Jun started, as a green ray of light hit Spectrum, who fell to the ground.
[POWER - 8000]
"Then, if my Vanguard's power exceeds yours by 10000 or more, I soul charge, and give 5000 power to my Vanguard." Jun said. "Larva Zeal's skill activates as well. When my opponent's power is reduced, If my power exceeds yours by 20000 or more, I can counter charge 2." Jun said, moving it to the soul. "Then, if the power difference is 25000 or more, I draw one card." Jun added, drawing.
"The power difference between Spectrum and Origorem right now is exactly 25000." Drake observed.
"I call one more Galaxy Anti-Hero, Zeal. In addition, call Greedy Anti-Hero, Plazm and Destructive Anti-Hero, Zeal." Jun added, as the units filled up the board, mostly. "Origorem attacks your Vanguard. Their skill activates, as well." Jun said, counterblasting. "The power of all of your units becomes 0 this turn." Jun declared, Kristall narrowing her eyes as a white mist engulfed her units.
[Origorem POWER - 43000]
[POWER - 0]
"In that case, no guard." Kristall said.
"Triple Drive." Jun said.
[DRIVE CHECK - Dimension Anti-Hero, Maiden [G0 - Heal Trigger]]
"Heal Trigger. I give the power to my Vanguard, and recover one damage." Jun said, moving a card out of the damage zone.
"To his Vanguard, who's already hitting..?" Azure wondered.
"Once again, I did this action on purpose. You'll understand why soon." Jun promised, before revealing the next two cards.
[DRIVE CHECK - Planetary Anti-Hero, Zeal [G2]]
[DRIVE CHECK - Dimension Anti-Hero, Maiden [G0 - Heal Trigger]]
At that, Kristall's eyes slightly widened.
"It appears luck is on my side. After all, Spectrum hit me pretty hard last turn. I give the power to Galaxy Anti-Hero, Zeal, and recover one more damage." Jun said, moving another card out of his damage zone, as the dragon's attack hit Spectrum.
[DAMAGE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Purple [G1]]
At that, Kristall grunted in pain as the shocks were getting worse.
"Kristal..!" Azure called out.
"...I'm fine." Kristall lied.
"In that case, Galaxy Anti-Hero, Zeal attacks. His skill activates." Jun said, counterblasting and discarding a card. "Now a chain of effects will activate, depending on how much more power my Vanguard has compared to yours." Jun explained, Kristall's eyes slightly widening.
"How much does the power exceed Kristall's Vanguard..?" Kyros asked.
"43000, because of that trigger he gave his Vanguard." Drake answered.
"Sharp kids. First, if the power exceeds yours by 5000 or more, Zeal gets an additional 5000 Power this battle. Then, if it exceeds by 10000 or more, I retire one of your front row rear guards. Begone, Silver!" Jun declared, as the beast slashed through the silver dragon. "Next, if it exceeds by 20000 or more, Zeal gets an additional critical this battle, and last but not least, if it exceeds by 40000 or more, This attack cannot be guarded from your hand unless you guard with 3 or more units." Jun explained, Kristall's eyes slightly widened. "It appears you've underestimated me. Destructive Anti-Hero Zeal's skill when boosting as well. If my Vanguard's power exceeds yours by 20000 or more, I draw a card, and give 4000 power to the unit it's boosting." Jun added.
[POWER - 40000]
"No guard..!" Kristall said, as the Zeals blasted Spectrum considerably, knocking it to the ground with hefty force.
[DAMAGE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Spectrum [G3]]
[DAMAGE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Red Gardragon [G0 - Draw Trigger]]
However, as the cards entered the drop zone, even Kristall couldn't stop herself from shouting out in pain, before falling to a knee. "Draw...Trigger...I give the power to Spectrum, and draw one card..." She said.
[POWER - 10000]
"Kristall..!" Azure yelled out.
"...With a boost from Davain, Plazm attacks your Vanguard. If it's attack hits, I'll get to draw 2 cards, and send one card from my hand to the soul...but this isn't quite a hit you can afford to take, is it?" Jun asked.
[POWER - 18000]
"Davain's skill. The unit it's boosting gets 3000 power for every interval of 5000 my Vanguard's power exceeds yours. Even with a 10000 boost..." Jun reminded while soulblasting.
[POWER - 42000]
"You say I've underestimated you..?" Kristall asked, weakly standing back up. "Well I say...You're the one who's been underestimating me..!" She declared, tossing a heal trigger into the drop zone. "I release the Generation Zone..! Generation Guard!" She declared, as three crystal dragons gathered together to protect the Vanguard. "Crystal Dragon, Triad..!" Kristall declared.
"But she doesn't have the Frostbite to use it's skill..!" Azure said.
"Don't worry, Azure...Everything will be okay. With a complete guard..!" Kristall said. "Red Gardragon's skill, instead of discarding a card, I pay a counterblast..! Red Gardragon gets 5000 shield for each differently named rear guard on the field..!" She said, Jun's eyes slightly widening.
"The total differently named rear guards are Davain, Plazm, Galaxy Anti-Hero Zeal, Destructive Anti-Hero, Zeal, and Crystal Dragon, Purple." Drake commented.
"5 different rear guards adds 25000 to the shield..!" Kristall declared.
[GUARD - Crystal Dragon, Red Gardragon - 25000]
[Generation Guard - Crystal Dragon, Triad - 15000]
[TOTAL - 50000]
"...Then this is the end of my turn." Jun commented.

"She survived, but the situation is reversed. Now Jun is in the lead with damage..." Drake commented.
"Don't give up, Kristall..!" Azure called out, as Kristall just nodded.
"Even with this pain, I have no intention of letting you down. No matter how strong my opponent may be...I will be the winner..!" Kristall declared, holding up a card, before tossing it into the drop zone. "I release the Generation Zone..! Generation Stride!" She declared, as a green pillar of light engulfed Spectrum, before it came out much larger, composed of vibrant green crystals. "Crystalline Dragon, Life Emerald Dragon!" Kristall declared. "Stride Skill!" She added, counterblasting. "From my deck, I take one card that does not share a name with any of my units, and superior call it." She said, as a card flew into her hand. "I superior call Crystal Dragon, Cyan! Add 5000 power!" She said, as the cyan crystal dragon roared.
[POWER - 15000]
"Life Emerald Dragon's skill!" Kristall adding, flipping another copy of it face-up. "For each Life Emerald Dragon in the G Zone, I superior call differently named Crystal Dragons from the drop zone. Return, Silver!" She said, as a vortex opened up, as Silver returned. "Then, if I have 3 or more Crystal Dragon rear guards with different names..." Kristall said, soulblasting. "I gain 1 drive! Then, Silver's skill!" She added, soulblasting again. "If none of my Crystal Dragon units share names, I search my deck for a Crystal Dragon that doesn't share a name with any units on my field, and superior call it! Come, Crystal Dragon, Pink!" Kristall declared, tossing the card behind Cyan. "Add 4000 power!" Kristall added.
[POWER - 12000]
"Then, Purple's skill." Kristall declared, counterblasting. "I look at the top 5 cards of the deck, and superior call up to one 'Crystal Dragon' that does not share a name with any of my units. Come! Crystal Dragon, Azure! Add 4000 Power again!" She said, as a baby blue dragon appeared in the last back row spot, which Jun seemed to chuckle at.
"How fitting." Jun remarked, Azure blinking in obliviousness.
"With a boost from Azure, Silver attacks your Vanguard!" Kristall said.
[POWER - 18000]
"No guard." Jun said, shrugging.
[DAMAGE CHECK - Planetary Anti-Hero, Zeal [G2]]
At that, Jun grunted at the pain.
"In that case, with a boost from Purple, Life Emerald Dragon..!" Kristall said. "Don't forget about the Force 2..!" Kristall added.
[POWER - 38000]
"Don't you worry, I didn't." Jun said, tossing a card to the guardian circle. "Complete Guard. Cosmic Anti-Hero, Galaxia." He said, dropping the quick shield in his hand, Kristall narrowing her eyes.
"In that case, Quadruple Drive..!" Kristall declared.
[DRIVE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Red [G2]]
[DRIVE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Green [G0 - Heal Trigger]]
"Heal Trigger...I recover one damage, and give the power to Cyan." Kristall said, sighing relief.
[DRIVE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Spectrum [G3]]
[DRIVE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Purple [G1]]
At that, the attack was completely blown away.
"I'm not done yet..!" Kristall said, resting the last two units. "Cyan attacks with a boost from Pink..! Cyan's skill!" Kristall added, counterblasting. "For each 'Crystal Dragon' unit with a different name besides Cyan, I add 3000 power to himself..!" She said, as Cyan's power increased.
[POWER - 25000]
"In addition, If I have 4 or more Crystal Dragons with different names, this attack can't be guarded by just one unit..!" Kristall declared.
[POWER - 33000]
At that, Jun shrugged. "Then I'll take it." Jun remarked, as the damage flew into his damage zone.
[DAMAGE CHECK - Origin Anti-Hero, Zero [G3]]
"...At the end of the battle, if Cyan used his skill, I must move him to the soul, and counter charge 1..." Kristall said, as Cyan disappeared, and a damage zone card turned face-up. "Pink has the same skill, if the unit she boosted attacked, and I have 3 or more differently named Crystal Dragons..." She said, moving it to the soul. "I draw one card." She said. "...At the end of the turn, Azure's effect activates. If I superior called it, and have 5 or more different Crystal Dragons in the drop zone, I return my drop zone to the deck, and shuffle." She concluded.

"...I expected more from you, you know. After what happened with that scandal you busted. Maybe you've just gotten too rusty. Either way, I suppose the least I could do is try to end this here and now. With the Progenitor Dragon, stride cost is irrelevant. Generation Stride." Jun said, as a multicolored variant of Zeal emerged. "Ultimate Anti-Hero, Zeal. Stride Skill." Jun added, counterblasting and soulblasting. "Spectrum's power reduces by 5000, and I soul charge, and give 5000 power to my Vanguard."
[Spectrum - 8000]
[Zeal - 43000]
"In addition, Ultimate Anti-Hero, Zeal's skill." Jun declared, counterblasting again and flipping another copy of it face-up. "For the rest of the turn, I decrease the power of my opponent's front row by 3000 for each card in my G Zone. This number can go below 0." Jun declared.
"Two face-up G Units means that Spectrum loses 6000 more power..." Drake reminded.
[Spectrum - 2000]
"In addition, if my power exceeds yours by 30000 or more, Zeal gains a drive." Jun said. "Then, Generation Break 3." He added, soulblasting. "I take 5000 more power from Spectrum's power." Jun said, as a green mist hit Spectrum.
[Spectrum - -3000]
"Spectrum has negative 3000 Power..!" Kyros said, worriedly.
"That's not the problem. He said 'take 5000' from Spectrum." Drake said, pointing at Zeal.
[POWER - 48000]
"Go..! Ultimate Anti-Hero, Zeal!" Jun declared, resting it.
"KRISTALL..!" Azure shouted in worry, Kristall flinching, before looking at her hand.
I have 11 cards in my hand, most of which I can defend with...However...What's the best way to protect myself in this situation..? Even if I block this, the Grade 3 Zeal's power exceeds mine by 40000 or more...It'll be a two critical strike that I can't guard with just one or two units, but I don't have any sentinels...Maybe...Just maybe... Kristall started, before a light blue glow formed in her eyes, Azure's eyes slightly widening.
"Is that..?" Azure started, before Kristall suddenly tossed out cards.
"Guard..!" She declared.
[GUARD - Crystal Dragon, Gold - 15000]
[GUARD - Crystal Dragon, Azure - 15000]
[GUARD - Crystal Dragon, Gold - 15000]
[GUARD - Crystal Dragon, Purple - 10000]
[TOTAL - 52000]
Then..! Kristall thought, as Silver jumped forward. "Silver's skill when intercepting..! If I have 2 or more differently named Crystal Dragons, add 5000 to the shield!" She declared.
[INTERCEPT - Crystal Dragon, Silver - 10000]
[TOTAL - 62000]
"If he gets two or more triggers, he'll break through..." Drake commented.
I have to believe in my deck..! If he doesn't get those two triggers...I can live! Kristall thought to herself, tensed.
"Quadruple Drive." Jun said.
[DRIVE CHECK - Anti-Hero, Breaker [G0 - Critical Trigger]]
"Critical Trigger. I give the power to my Vanguard, and the critical to the rear guard Zeal. Good call not trying to 'No guard' this one." Jun said, Kristall sweating a bit.
[DRIVE CHECK - Origin Anti-Hero, Zero [G3]]
[DRIVE CHECK - Origin Anti-Hero, Zero [G3]]
"This is the last drive check." Jun said, Kristall slowly nodding, as Jun reached for the deck, as the top card slowly lifted up, and revealed itself.
[DRIVE CHECK - Destructive Anti-Hero, Zeal [G1]]
"She blocked it..!" Azure said, sighing relief.
"However, I still have two more attacks..! Galaxy Anti-Hero, Zeal!" Jun said, counterblasting and discarding a card. "In addition, the booster adds power again! I draw one card as well!" Jun declared.
[POWER - 30000]
[CRITICAL - 3]
"It's true that you have a powerful skill to restrict my guards...However! It only works from my hand! Generation Guard! Crystal Dragon, Savior Jade! Her skill! Generation Break 1!" Kristall said, counterblasting and flipping a copy of Triad face-up. "All of my differently named rear guards move to the guardian circle! Purple! Shield plus 10000!"
[GENERATION GUARD - Crystal Dragon, Savior Jade - 15000]
[GUARD - Crystal Dragon, Purple - 20000]
[TOTAL - 32000]
"Blazm..!" Jun declared, resting the units. "I don't use his skill!"
"No guard..!" Kristall said, taking the hit.

She declared, as a bright blue dragon appeared in Spectrum's place. "Crystalline Dragon..! Sapphire Nova Dragon!" She declared. "Stride Skill!" Kristall added, counterblasting. "I superior call Silver from the deck! Add 5000 Power!" She declared, as the card appeared.
[POWER - 15000]
"Silver's Soulblast, I superior call Purple from my deck!" Kristall added, as Purple appeared. "Purple's counterblast! From the top 5 cards of the deck, I superior call Crystal Dragon, Tanzanite! Add 4000 Power!" She added, calling it behind the Vanguard. "Then, I call Red and Pink from my hand..!" Kristall added, filling her board that way. "Nova Dragon's Generation Break 3!" Kristall added, taking two golds and an Azure from her drop zone and putting them on the bottom of her deck. "I add 4000 power to each Crystal Dragon rear guard that shares no name with any unit on my field!" Kristall declared.

"Red attacks your Vanguard, with a boost from Pink!" Kristall declared, resting the units.
[POWER - 26000]
"I'll take this damage." Jun declared.
[DAMAGE CHECK - Galaxy Anti-Hero, Zeal [G3]]
"I don't activate Pink's skill." Kristall said, Jun raising an eyebrow. "With a boost from Purple, Silver attacks your Vanguard! Purple's skill! When it boosts, and there are 4 or more differently named Crystal Dragon rear guards, Silver's attack can't be guarded by just one unit!" She declared.
[POWER - 31000]
"In that case, I'll Generation Guard." Jun said. "Great Galactic Beast, Zeal. With their skill, I reduce Silver's power by 5000." Jun said, moving the last card out of his soul.
[POWER - 26000]
[GENERATION GUARD - Great Galactic Beast, Zeal - 15000]
[TOTAL - 28000]
"In that case...Nova Dragon, with no boost!" Kristall declared, Jun raising another eyebrow, as Kristall held her hand out. "Generation Break 5!" She added, the group and Jun's eyes slightly widening, as Kristall paid two Counterblasts. "I send every card on my circles other than V to the drop zone, and check the top 15 cards of the deck, and from among them..! Superior Call!" She said, tossing 5 units down. "Crystal Dragon! Crystal Dragon, Cyan! Crystal Dragon, Purple! Crystal Dragon, Pink! Crystal Dragon, Azure! All units called by this effect get 5000 power!" She said, holding her hand out.
"Complete Guard...Galaxia!" Jun said, discarding a card.
"Triple Drive!" Kristall said.

"At the end of the battle, I discard 4 hand cards to stand! Drive -2! Acquire a Skill!" Kristall added, tossing 4 cards to the drop zone, as the dragon roared again, Jun's eyes slightly widening.
"With a boost from Azure...Go, Sapphire Nova Dragon! With the acquired skill, I have 6 differently named units on my field, drive plus 1!" Kristall declared.
[POWER - 37000]
"Because of Force 2, that's a Critical of 3...!" Drake realized.
"Guard..!" Jun said, tossing cards.
[GUARD - Anti-Hero, Breaker - 15000]
[GUARD - Destructive Anti-Hero, Zeal - 10000]
Even if I intercept, It'll still be one to pass...I have to hope she doesn't break through..! Jun thought to himself.
"...Twin Drive!" Kristall said.
[DRIVE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Pink [G1]]
"I made a promise, and I intend to keep it..! Second Check!" Kristall said, drawing with everything she had, before revealing it to Jun, who's eyes slightly widened.
[DRIVE CHECK - Crystal Dragon, Green [G0 - Heal Trigger]]
"Heal Trigger..! I give the power to my Vanguard, and heal one damage..!" Kristall said, as the blast broke through Jun's guard, as the top 3 cards flew into the damage zone, none being triggers, as Jun suffered a painful shock, but seemed to stand back up and sigh.
"...Well, looks like you won." Jun said.
