Episode 10: Inside the Cyberse. Part 2.
Jane/Giratina/Galaxy-Eyes Acceleron Dragon vs Undead Matter Duel Resumed. Jane: 800 LP. Undead Matter: 4000 LP.
Undead Matter: [if you give up, imposter, I may think about sparing you and your friend. I am not as violent as I can be seen first.]
Jane: again – I am a real Giratina, I cannot access to this form! It is a Cyberse, a world of VRAINS, it has own rules and you should know that. And no – I don't need your mercy, I am gonna crush you here and now and forever.
Jane still had her alter-ego mind thoughts though she had opened that fact for herself not while ago. In other words, she had learnt how to think as a Giratina (or as a Galaxy-eyes Acceleron Dragon), even as a human. Yet, it hadn't been enough to have as less problems as possible if Jane couldn't handle it without a help of either or even both of her alter-egos.
Undead Matter: [so? Why are you not making your move? Are you gonna give up? Ok, fine, I can accept it.]
Newton: don't worry, Jane: I am gonna avenge you if you lose. Even though… I don't know how to play… this card game. Yeah, I still have my Pokemons to beat the all crap out of that guy! Trust me, Jane!
Undead Matter: oh seems like even your boyfriend is losing more and more of hope in you, imposter! I feel really bad for your fate.
Jane: dare you call us a couple even again once more time – and I am gonna punch you in your unmaterialized face again!
Newton: Jane, if you die, it won't have any sense. Remember you have just promised to teach me to play this game!
Jane: first thing – again, I am not gonna vanish in existence. You are not going lose me because… you know who am I, right? Why should I disappear? Second – the name of this card game is Duel Monsters, remember that.
Jane's determination had been as powerful as ever, even since the day she had awakened her alter-ego. Yet, she had problems with having just 800 LP remaining and inflicting no damage against Undead Matter. Yet, she had one card which was a trump in this game and there was no other better moment than now to use it. Yet, there still had been a one single problem: what if Jane is not going to pull it next turn?
Jane: "Fine, I should pull it or I am gonna shame my very own alter-ego which is waiting for me in a different world! I draw a card, I believe in a heart of my deck and I am sure it is gonna be that card exactly!"
Real world. Gracidea Fields, Sinnoh. 5 pm.
Shaymin: so you are telling me that Giratina now is a Pokémon Trainer and wants to become a World Best Ranger?!
Ryoga: yet, Mr Grass Hedgehog, you did almost the completely same thing, don't you? Or how would you explain that?
Ash: yeah, you are nicer in a form of a Pokémon. Why do you need it, Shaymin? Or do you want to rule over other Pokemons?
Shaymin: First – call me Shay from now. Second, no – I am not going to become a Pokémon Trainer, but I want to have an easier life among humans.
Shaymin – or, as he had been named from now – Shay, had been looking as a young short man with appearance of a 12-years old (or 15?) boy with some kind of a medieval-like cloth-made forest-themed outfit and a large collar hiding his mouth. Despite the fact that a Gratitude Pokémon never had been kind of a shy guy – both Ash and Ryoga had such a feeling after witnessing his human form.
Shay: well… a major reason of why I did that it is because I have opened my very own Gracidea Flower Shop. I am just afraid that I would have a problem with that business due to who am I. In other words, I thought nobody would take my idea seriously and would try to find someone who "caught" me.
Ash: yet I wonder who taught you to do that. Or was it you who did? Since one person both you and we know… *blushes … did that by herself.
Ryoga: I bet you asked Ditto for it, I know they can take any form and shape, no matter if it is a Pokémon, an another being or even an object. Am I right, Shaym… Shay? Or who else could teach you to do that?
Shaymin: nope, Ditto did nothing and I have never met one yet in my life, to be honest. I have prayed for Arceus-sama.
Ash: is that so easy?! Man, you mean right now that if I have a desire – like becoming a Pokémon Master – can I ask an Arceus-sama itself for it?! Cool!
Shay: too primitive, Ash-kun, too primitive… Do you really think not only you can ask an Arceus-sama itself for literally everything but even getting it being granted? Don't make me laugh! My desire had been as easy as possible, not to mention I have enough of power to maintain this gift from a God itself, not to mention my origin nature!
Ryoga: and how about being the best Duelist in existence? Hope I am not gonna fail like a Twerp just did.
Shay: no idea, who is that guy named Twerp, Ryoga-san – but you are going to face same kind of problems as Ash-kun.
Ryoga: what?! So you do mean I am at same conditions as a Twerp?! Are you kidding me? I am not gonna be worse!
Shay: well… if I remember right, a status of a Pokémon Master and a status of a World Best Duelist are 2 different things – am I right? By the way – I am not going to become a Pokémon trainer, of course. It would be weird as from my very own side, don't you think, guys?
Ash: Giratina is a Pokémon Trainer for now, Shay-san. She owns Mamoswine at least and even used him in our battle.
Shay: wait, have you just said… "she"? And have you battled her… IN A POKEMON BATTLE!? Man, that's impossible!
Ash: I have lost. And… we are dating. Yes, I love her and she is the best girl I have ever knew, even… including those I have happened to travel with for many years…
Ryoga: and mine too, not to mention – that, unlikely to Twerp, I had no any girls in past neither I had any possible romance interests on side!
Shay: men, you are really kind of weird, I would never imagine something like that ever and even existing… You are kind of weirdos…
Surely, Ash had a lot of female of friends and mates before – Misty, May, Dawn, Iris, Serena, Lana, Mallow etc. Some people even would have treat Ash as a Casanova for having so large amount of women around him which could be considered as the whole real complete harem. Yes, remembering and appreciating both Misty, May, Dawn, Iris, Serena, Lana, Mallow etc enough, Ash has decided a thing for himself: Jane won his heart.
Ryoga definitely had no any other romantic interest before Jane, especially more because spending a lot of time with his sick younger sister, Rio. In other words, he had no real possibility to spend so much time meeting enough of people, for relationships especially. Yet, he had a school and he had a personal life besides taking care about his little sister, so one day he met Jane and felt in love with her. Maybe the reason behind Rio's attitude towards Jane had been hiding behind?
Shay: well, men… I am a Legendary Pokémon; you know? I am flattered you need me in your team, led by Giratina it… herself, but first thing I would like to do is to duel both of you, if you don't mind. I had been building my very own deck during few past days, so I wanna see if you are worthy to join you.
Ash: wait a minute, Shay, I don't have my own deck yet! It would be unfair if Blue-H… Ryoga only is gonna test you!
Shay: well I do know you better than him, so it would be unfair … for you since I know your weak points, Ash-san.
Ryoga: fine then, Shaym… Shay, I am ready to accept your offer with all fame and such! Bring it on here and now!
Shay: fine then, but again – I am a Legendary Pokémon by myself, so I promise you that our duel is not going to be easy!

Ryoga: shut up, Twerp! This deck is my alternative one, I don't want to repeat all the time and time by time, just shut up, seat and watch!
Shay's Turn 2: Special Summons [Darklord Superbia] (2900/2400) (destroyed by a trap, [Botomless Trap Hole]. LP 8000.

Ryoga: shut up and watch, Twerp, I am gonna crash this grass hedgehog like if he even couldn't be able to fight against me! It is a 1 vs 1 duel, stay and watch!
Shay: how bad, I would recommend you to take him as your tag mate if you wanna win. But seems like you are gonna lose…
Jane/Giratina/Galaxy-Eyes Acceleron Dragon vs Undead Matter Duel Resumed. Jane: 800 LP. Undead Matter: 4000 LP.
Jane's Turn 3: I Activate a Field Spell, [Acceleron Dragon Shrine]. By activating it, I can decide whether or not I pick a drawn card and if not – I discard it and draw again. With it, I draw and activate a Spell Card – [Griseous Orb] and equip it to [Naturia Mantis] (1700/1000). Thanks to it, I can attack directly if my opponent destroyed a monster on my field. With it, I attack directly (Undead Matter: 4000 - 2300). I place [Rose Archer] (1000/1000) in Defense position, I set a card face down and end my turn. LP: 800.
Undead Matter: [Seems like you have found the way to make your situation better, imposter – but how bad, that's not enough. I am going to destroy you this turn and you are not going to survive!]
Undead Matter's Turn 4: [I attack [Naturia Mantis] (1700/1000) with my [Blackiwing - Nothung the Starlight] (2400/1600) (destroyed by Mirror Force). I set a card face down.] LP: 2300.
Undead Matter: [You scum, you cannot be that strong and why are you using references of Giratina and … even Galaxy-eyes Acceleron Dragon themselves?! I cannot accept it, you should be destroyed, you are just a cheater! And you forgot one thing: you didn't allow me to destroy any monster of yours this turn, which means you cannot…!]
Jane: no, I just believe in heart of my cards, in heart of my deck. Turn 4: I activate my Spell, [Galaxy Accelerator]. With its effect, I can add as many Monsters from my hand as I can – except of those who can be summoned by either Special Summon or Tribute Summon only! Then I use a Spell, [Level Dimension] – to raise each of my monster's level multiplied by 2. Thanks to that, I overlay 4 Level 8 Monsters:
"Through the places, where neither Time not Space exists and where the matter is as mysterious as everything behind the [Void], the part of light crosses through the Universe inside and outside. Come forth, not being afraid of anything – [No. 0.5: Anti-Matter Knight of Trinity!] (0/0)"
Undead Matter: [First time I see this monster, but don't think you can defeat me with it, especially if it has 0 ATK and even 0 DEF! It is weak!]
Jane: I haven't finished yet! I activate [No. 0.5: Anti-Matter Knight of Trinity] (0/0)'s effect, which adds it an amount of ATK and DEF equal to the overall damage both of duelists got through the whole duel! That means now it has 4900 ATK and 4900 DEF – (4900/4900) and that's enough to destroy you! I directly attack you with [No. 0.5: Anti-Matter Knight of Trinity]
(4900/4900) (Undead Matter: 2300 - 0 LP).
