"Alex, do you have a second?" Yuri inquired while Jack, Dawn, and Ryoken prepared for a Speed Duel.
Alex looked over to him, "Yeah Yuri?"

If this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard: You can target 1 card on the field; send it to the Graveyard.
Jack smirked. "Your skills are as sharp as ever."
"Malacoda... Isn't that the same monster that lowers attack points?" Skye asked seeing it.
"The same." Specter confirmed.
"With both it, and Cherubini on the field her field makes it to where not only she will weaken her opponent but also increase her strength each turn with heavy damage." Yusaku informed Skye telling her what Dawn's strategy is.
"A clever strategy, but ultimately useless against Ryoken." Specter smirked.
"I end my turn." Dawn ended as they turned to Jack.

Scarlight rose up roaring in place.
"Now, I have some bad news for you Dawn because I'm ending my turn with Scarlight's special ability Ruthless Inferno!" Jack called. "An ability that destroys both of your monsters and deals 500 points of damage for each one."
Scarlight's white arm burned with flames charging them at Dawn's monsters as she called, "Well by sending Malacoda to the graveyard, Cherubini is saved which means I don't take damage nor your effect harmed any of them but that ain't all!"
Malacoda transformed into a purple soul like demon cackling. Jack's eyes widened in shock. "What?"
"If Malacoda is sent to the graveyard from the field one monster goes to the graveyard!" Dawn revealed as the purple storm charged at Scarlight who roared in defiance only for something to catch the purple storm causing it to vanish, "Huh?"
"I had activated the trap, Dragon Triton!" Ryoken called revealing a trap.

"While a Dark Dragon is on the field, I can negate an activation of a effect that is possessed by you two, and since I don't have Spells or Traps, I can use this card from my hand!" Ryoken smirked to them.
"I appreciate the help, but don't forget I'm your opponent too." Jack reminded Ryoken before nodding to end his turn.

"He means it's a deck that does really good against people who Link Summon." Julia explained.

"When summoned I can summon a Dark Dragon from my graveyard that's level 5 or higher!" Ryoken called as Noctovision rose up again, "In exchange it's destroyed at the end of the turn but now I tune level 1 Rokket Synchron with level 7 Noctovision Dragon!"
Rokket Synchron flew up turning to 1 ring as Noctovision Dragon turned to 7 stars.
(LV: 1 + 7 = 8)

The card was shown in his Spell/Trap Card Zone as two orbs flew in Savage Dragon's gun barrel torso. (Borrel Counter: 2)
"And then Savage Dragon gains half of that monster's points!" Ryoken added as his Synchro roared.
Savage Dragon: (ATK: 3000 + 800 = 3800)
"3800?" Leo cried in shock.
"Whoa!" Sandy cried shocked, "So now he's able to overpower both Jack, and Dawn now!"
"He's really strong." Ace agreed.
"But since this is only the first of our turns, I can't attack yet." Ryoken stated that setting a card, "So for now, I'll give you two a shot."
Dawn: 4000
Jack: 4000
Ryoken: 4000

'Be careful big sis.' Ace thought nervously.
Dawn looked before calling, "And now, I activate the spell, Graceful Charity!"

"I draw 3 cards, and discard two!" Dawn said drawing three cards, and discarded two of then, "Then since I sent Alich to the graveyard, I can negate the effects of a monster! Which means I'll be negating Savage Dragon's abilities!"
Ryoken smirked, "Not good enough! I activate Savage Dragon's ability! When either of you two activate a card effect, I can remove one Borrel Counter to negate the activation!"
A orb exited Savage Dragon's body as it vanished. (Borrel Counter: 2 - 1 = 1)
"So your monster has protection, interesting." Jack noted calmly.

"And since this guy is summoned, I can summon a Level 3 monster but negate it's abilities!" Dawn called as Crane Crane dipped it's head in the graveyard portal pulling out Farfa.
"That can only mean one thing." Cathy smiled.
"And since Crane Crane negated Farfa's abilities it won't get destroyed by Crane Crane on Dawn's field." Ray smiled crossing her arms.
"And now I Overlay Crane Crane, and Farfa!" Dawn called as the two entered the Overlay Network, "Warrior of the Burning Abyss join here, and now to bring peace back to this world! With your power shape the world to our image! Xyz Summon! Rank 3! Dante, Traveler of the Burning Abyss!"

"And now I activate Dante's ability!" Dawn called as Dante took one of the orbs, (ORU: 2 - 1) "By using an Overlay Unit, I send my top three cards to the graveyard, and Dante gains 1500 points!"
Dante: (ATK: 1000 + (500 * 3) = 2500)
"And as Farfa is sent to the graveyard, I banish Savage Dragon until the end of the turn!" Dawn called as Farfa grabbed the dragon causing it to roar as it vanished while Dillingerous Dragon in Ryoken's Spell/Trap Zone shattered with Savage Dragon's departure.
"She's good." Akira mentioned.
"And now, I activate Cherunini's own ability! I give Dante the attack points of Calcab!" Dawn called sending the monster.
Dante: (ATK: 2500 + 1400 = 3900)
"And as Calcab is sent to the graveyard, I can return your set card to your hand Ryoken!" Dawn called pointing to Ryoken's card as Calcab sent a wave.
Ryoken grinned, "That won't work!"
"What?" Dawn asked hearing that.
"If you target my set card, I can banish Noctovision Dragon from my graveyard to negate the activation!" Ryoken revealed as the dragon's card appeared blocking the effect.
"Another impressive counter." Nico announced.
Dawn grunted at that, "Alright well, I'll use Dante to attack Triple Burst Dragon!"
Dante charged in as they expect Ryoken to use his set card. To their surprise he didn't as Triple Burst Dragon was destroyed. (Ryoken: 2500)
"If he saved his set card why didn't he use it?" Sandy asked seeing that.
"I don't know, but I don't like this." Bonnie frowned.
Shaking her head Dawn called, "Cherubini attack Ryoken directly!"
Her Link Monster attacked Ryoken which made him stumble on his Duel Board. (Ryoken: 2000)
"Since Dante attacked he goes to defense mode." Dawn said as Dante knelled, "I end my turn. Dante, Cherubini, and Farfa's effects all end so Dante's points goes back to normal, and Savage Dragon returns to your field."
Savage Dragon rose up again roaring without it's power boost or Borrel Counters as Dante lost his strength.
Dante: (ATK: 3900 - 1400 - (500 * 3) = 1000)
Jack 2nd Turn:
"Then it's my turn again, so let's try this again, Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend, Ruthless Inferno!" Jack called.
Scarlight fired another bout of fire as Dawn called, "That won't work again! I send Dante to the graveyard to protect Cherubini!"
While her Link Monster is saved Savage Dragon wasn't lucky shattering as Ryoken stumbled back on his Duel Board. (Ryoken: 1500)

"Not bad, but Red Nova Dragon gains 500 attack points for every tuner in my graveyard and I have three." Jack revealed.

"By paying 1000 points, I can summon a Link 3 or lower Dragon from my graveyard, and you can't destroy it or damage me in battles involving it this turn!" Ryoken called to Jack (Ryoken: 0500), "Rise again Triple Burst Dragon!"
His Link 3 Turret appeared again roaring.
Jack frowned at that. "I end my turn."
Ryoken 2nd Turn:
"Then I draw!" Ryoken called drawing looking before smirking, "I can hear the beating pulse of the world... Your waiting for me to capture you... Come Data Storm!"
Suddenly an identical tornado like Yusaku's rose from the center of the stadium. Everyone's eyes widened in shock seeing that. Ryoken smirked diving in as Yusaku grinned, "Me, and him are rivals for a reason. He's also got the same skill."
"I activate my Skill! When I have 1000 or fewer Life Points, I can take a random Link Monster from the Data Storm, and add it to my Extra Deck! The new breath resides in my hand! Come, Storm Access!" Ryoken called as data build in his hand.
Storm Access
Ryoken's Skill
If the user has 1000 or less LP, the user randomly obtains a Link Monster from a nearby Data Storm and adds it to their Extra Deck.
At that a card materialized in his hand as he smirked jumping out of the Data Storm landing on his Duel Board holding the card.
'I have a bad feeling about this.' Jack thought nervously.
"And now I activate Triple Burst Dragon's special ability! I Tribute it to summon back Dillingerous Dragon from my graveyard!" Ryoken called as his Link 2 reappeared, "And then appear from my hand! Sniffer Dragon!"
Sniffer Dragon appeared as it glowed, "As it's summoned Sniffer Dragon lets me add another Sniffer Dragon to my hand, and summon it!"
It appeared beside Dillingerous Dragon ready.
"Is he about too..." Ace started nervously.
"My new power, become the source for my victory! Manifest, the future circuit that lights up my path!" Ryoken called as the circuit appeared, "The summoning conditions are at least 2 Effect Monsters!"
The three dragons entered the diagonal arrows.
"What is he playing?" Blue Frost asked.

"That monster only has 3000 attack points." Jack pointed out.
"Not for long. For every card that is banished Zeroboros gains 200 attack points!" Ryoken called as Zeroboros glowed.
"Wait, how many is that?" Ace asked.
"Just one. It would be only two if Farfa kept Savage Dragon banished." Sandy answered.
Zeroboros: (ATK: 3000 + 200 = 3200)
"Still it's enough to land a critical blow against Dawn." Sandy said seeing that.
"That's where you're wrong." Yugo told her. "Especially if I know Jack like I think I do."
"Zeroboros attack Dawn's Cherubini!" Ryoken called as Zeroboros aimed an attack, "Final Disorder Code!"
Zeroboros fired a huge blast at Dawn's Link Monster. Suddenly chains wrapped around Zeroboros.
"What the...?" Ryoken asked seeing that.
"It's called Fiendish Chain, and it's going to keep your Zeroboros from doing anything." Jack smirked.

"Exactly, there's a reason Jack's the champion of the Synchro Dimension." Yugo grinned. 'Of course Alex is really strong too.'
Ryoken at that looked at the cards in his hand, "I end my turn."
Topologic Zeroboros: (ATK: 3200 - 200 = 3000)
"It doesn't seem fair that Ryoken's the only one that's damaged though." Alex admitted to them.
"Sometimes duels aren't fair." Yuto mentioned. "There were too many duelists so he ended up in a bad match. I have a feeling he's a lot tougher than we've seen in this match."
"This is only a minor setback." Specter told them, "Ryoken is stronger then you think."
Dawn: 4000
Jack: 4000
Ryoken: 0500
Dawn 3rd Turn:
"Draw!" Dawn called drawing looking, "Okay."
She closed her eyes as a purple aura build around her as the graveyard portal appeared in front of her. Ace smiled seeing that.
"I activate my skill! Abyssal Revival!" Dawn called raising her arm to the graveyard portal.
Abyssal Revival
Dawn's Skill
If the user controls no monsters in the Main Monster Zone, they can give up any number of LP x 1000 to Special Summon "Burning Abyss" monsters from their graveyard but those monsters cannot attack while on the field.
"By paying points in multiples of 1000 I can summon a Burning Abyss from the graveyard but they can't attack!" Dawn called as she glowed. (Dawn: 1000) "Rise back, Malacoda, Graff, and welcome Rubic, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss!"
The three rise up ready.
Rubic, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss
Dark Type
Level 3
Fiend/Tuner
ATK: 100
DEF: 2100
If you control a monster that is not a "Burning Abyss" monster, destroy this card. Cannot be used as a Synchro Material, except for the Synchro Summon of a "Burning Abyss" Synchro Monster. If you control no Spell/Trap Cards: You can Special Summon this card from your hand. You can only use this effect of "Rubic, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss" once per turn.
"I have a bad feeling about this." Jack frowned.
"And now level 3 Rubic tunes level 3 Graff!" Dawn called as the two flew up.
(LV: 3 + 3 = 6)
"Rock Star of the Abyss strum your notes of peace to bring harmony to all those who listen! Synchro Summon! Level 6, Virgil, Rock Star of the Burning Abyss!"
Virgil rose up strumming his guitar with a smile.
Virgil, Rock Star of the Burning Abyss
Light Type
Level 6
Spellcaster/Synchro
ATK: 2500
DEF: 1000
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters
You can only control 1 "Virgil, Rock Star of the Burning Abyss". Once per turn: You can discard 1 "Burning Abyss" card, then target 1 card your opponent controls or in their Graveyard; shuffle it into the Deck. If this card on the field is destroyed by battle or card effect and sent to the Graveyard: You can draw 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Virgil, Rock Star of the Burning Abyss" once per turn.
"It isn't enough on it's own, but Virgil can definitely help." White Wing noted.
Dawn called, "And now as Graff is sent, I summon out a second Farfa!"
A second Farfa rose up before she added, "And then I activate Virgil's ability! I discard a Burning Abyss from my hand to send one card on the field, or the graveyard back to the Deck! You got Zeroboros bound so Red Nova Dragon's the target!"
Jack's eyes widened as his monster vanished and Red Cocoon shattered.
"If Jack survives the turn then Scarlight will be revived due to Red Cocoon's ability." Casey remarked to them.
"And if he manages to use its special ability he'll win the duel." Bonnie added.
"And then, I activate Cherubini's ability! By sending a third Farfa to the graveyard, my first Farfa gains it's points!" Dawn called as Farfa glowed.
Farfa: (ATK: 1000 + 1000 = 2000/DEF: 1900 + 1900 = 3800)
"And as that Farfa is sent Zeroboros is banished until the end of the turn!" Dawn called as Zeroboros vanished as Fiendish Chain on Jack's field shattered.
"She's so strong." Mason whispered in awe.
"Alright first off Virgil, Farfa attack Jack!" Dawn called as the two monsters charged at Jack forming to 4500 points of direct damage.
The attacks hit creating a massive explosion.
"Did she got Jack out?" Nico asked as they watched the explosion.
Suddenly Jack raced out of the explosion.
(Jack: 0100)
"Huh?" Dawn asked surprised seeing that, "You had no cards to defend you! Wait... Unless you used-"
"My own Skill, King's Resonance!" Jack answered. "It let me banish all the tuner monsters in my graveyard to reduce the damage by 200 points for each one."
King's Resonance
Jack's Skill
When the user is attacked directly they can banish as many Tuner monsters in the graveyard as possible, then for each tuner banished they can decrease the damage taken by 200 points.
"Alright..." Dawn trailed off looking over both her opponents trying to figure out who to attack with Cherubini as her last attacker.
"She's stuck, whoever Dawn attacks the other one will be able to beat her." Bonnie frowned.
"If she attacks Jack, Zeroboros will be back from Farfa's ability, and with it freed of Fiendish Chain it can attack again which means no matter who Ryoken chooses to attack will be enough to finish her." Sandy said staring at Ryoken before looking at Jack, "On the otherhand if she attacks Ryoken, Jack can use Red Cocoon to revive Scarlight, and use it's ability to deal 1000 points of damage which Dawn has no defense against."
"No... big sis has to be able to do something." Ace frowned.
Dawn looked troubled, 'I got no Spells, no Traps, no cards in my hand, and can't go to Main Phase 2 due to Speed Duel Rules... So this is the end here. I lose no matter who I attack.' She chuckled, 'Ah well at least I had fun.' "Uncle... I'm beat either way."
"Well, if nothing else you can pick who moves on Dawn." Jack told her with a smile.
"What does he mean?" Chōko asked hearing that.
"He means Dawn can beat either Jack or Ryoken, but that attack would also mean whoever she doesn't attack can immediately beat her." Mir explained only to pause. "Unless... there is one thing she could try and it just might be enough. That is if she can figure it out."
Dawn looked over choosing her target for attack, "Jack your out!"
Cherubini charged at Jack.
'I guess not.' Mir thought as the attack hit wiping out the last of Jack's life points.
(Jack: 0000)
"Alright... You win Ryoken good work." Dawn smiled as Zeroboros appeared again.
Ryoken 3rd Turn:
"It's been a pleasure dueling you." Ryoken smirked drawing, "Zeroboros finish this!"
Zeroboros attacked Dawn's field as she closed her eyes.
Dawn: 0000
Jack: 0000
Ryoken: 0500
Ryoken wins the duel!
"And after that amazing duel Ryoken emerges victorious." Nico announced while Ace ran over to hug Dawn.
Dawn hugged her brother, "Sorry Ace."
"It's ok, I still think you're really strong." he smiled hugging her.
Dawn nodded with her own smile.
Ulrich362: An intense duel ends with Ryoken's victory.
bopdog111: Yeah which makes him the first of the six special guests to advance leaving the Zaizen Siblings, and Specter left.
Ulrich362: True, the first round is nearly over so we'll have to see what happens. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
