Welcome back readers! This is the second chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V: Territory of the Shark! As you expected, this chapter will be Shark vs Yuya! And for OC pairing, I decided to pick Ruri because I think they will be a good pair since Shark and Ruri used Xyz Summoning. And for Shark, Xyz summon wasn't only thing he could. So stay tuned! Once again, Thanks Helios Darkus for your advice!
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V! I only have my OC and the plot.
After taking a hour, Shark and Yuya arrived in Yu Show Duel School.
"Here we are." Yuya said before he releasing the boy's arm.
"We didn't have to run Yuya." Shark panted as he clutched his chest and taking rest. "You almost kill me."
"Oops, sorry about that, I got carried away." Yuya said in embarrassment.
"Whatever, where's the others ?" Shark asked as he looked around the area before seeing them. "Ah, here they are."
"Yuya.. next time.. please don't run too fast." Yuzu panted heavily. Once Yuzu and the other kids recovered their stamina, they entered the main room of Yu Show Duel School as Shark looked around it. For Shark, it was like regular primary school but more futuristic.
"Yuya, Yuzu! Is that you guys!" They heard a man's voice called out, making them turned and see a man who has dark blue eyes and brown/orange hair.
"Yes, it's us, dad!" Said Yuzu.
'Wait.. he is Yuzu's father ?!' Shark thought to himself.
Before Shark speak, Yuzu's father got an uncomfortably close to him.
"I'm Shuzo Hiragi, the Principal of YSDS and Yuzu's father." He introduced himself.
"It was a pleasure to meet you Hiragi-san. I'm Reginald Kessler, but you can call me Shark." Said Shark respectively.
"Oh, don't tell me you're interested in enrolling our school." Shuzo looked so hopeful and probably a little bit desperated for searching a new student. He felt a bad for dashing their hopes. But, he still replied resolutely.
"Sorry, I haven't made a decision yet. But, Yuya and Yuzu asked me to take a tour to your school."
"Oh, in that case, we will give you a tour of the place."
"Thank you. And sorry if I bother you guys." Shark said with conflicted manner.
"Come on Shark! Don't be so shy!" Yuya said with smile on his face.
"Who's this person ?" The bulky young man questioned as the short boy with cyan colored hair followed. "I, the man Gongenzaka, never seen him before."
Shark sweatdropped. 'Is he always said that ? Oh well, maybe a habit..' He thought to himself.
"Hi Gongenzaka, when did you came here ?" Yuya asked his bulky friend. "I hope you aren't waiting for too long."
"No you didn't." Gongenzaka said firmly. "I, the man Gongenzaka, was wondering if my rival would be interested for another friendly match before Maiami Championship."
"Sorry Gongenzaka, another time to duel. For now, I would like you to meet my new friend here." Yuya said as Gongenzaka walked towards the purple haired young man and they shook their hands.
"Hi. My name is Reginald Kessler." Shark introduced himself.
"I, the man Noboru Gongenzaka, Yuya's childhood friend and rival. It's a pleasure to meet you Reginald-san."
"Oh, don't need to be formal Gongenzaka-san. You can call me Shark." He said with a smile.
"Understood. Then, you can call me Gongenzaka."
Then, the cyan haired boy walked towards Shark.
"Hi, I'm Sora Shiunin!" Sora introduced himself.
Shark thought to himself. 'I don't know why, but I felt a bad feeling about this boy.'
"Nice to meet you." Shark replied.
"Do you guys know it ?! Shark nii-chan is an amazing duelist!" Said Ayu happily.
"Yes! He can summon two powerful Xyz monster in one turn and beat Sawatari into a pulp!" Tatsuya added.
"It gave me shivers!" Futhosi excited.
Hearing at the name of Sawatari, Gongenzaka was not pleased. "Is Sawatari bothering you again Yuya ?"
"Yeah, something like that.." Yuya chuckled nervously.
Then Yuya explained Gongenzaka that how they meet Shark and Sawatari wanted to take revenge on Yuya for defeating him but Shark teaching him a lesson by defeating him in a duel with his Xyz monsters.
"So you're an Xyz duelist.. not bad." Said Sora with genuine curiousity.
"I, the man Gongenzaka, really grateful for protecting my friend. Thank you, Shark!" Gongenzaka thanked.
"Don't need to thank me. I just couldn't stay and do nothing when someone getting harrased." Shark said with small smile on his face.
"Say Shark." Sora questioned at Shark. "I haven't seen you around here, are you perhaps out of town ?"
'Okay, he suspecting something about me but I won't blow my cover easily.' Shark thought to himself.
"Yes, I just came to this city not too long before I met Yuya and his friends." Shark answered.
"But what's bring you to Maiami City ?" Shuzo suddenly asked.
"I've been traveling around a lot of the countries and learning the Duel tactic's in one years. However, traveling is a little bit tiring and I decided to stay in Maiami City because this city is beautiful." Shark explained.
"What about your parents ? They didn't mind on you ?" Yuzu asked.
Shark was looking down on the floor, looking sad. "I'm an orphan. When I was 7 years old, my parents died in a car ancident."
Yuzu widened her eyes as she covered her mouth with her hands, much to everyone surprise.
"I'm sorry to hear about your parents." Yuzu apologized in regretful.
"It's okay. That's just some bad memories for me." Shark stated.
"Anyway Shark, what do you think ? Would you like to be Yu Show's new student ?" Shuzo asked with hope in his eyes.
"Hmm.. I will join. But, if one of the students duel me to show me their belief in dueling." Shark replied.
"Alright then! The only thing remaining is a proper opponent!" Shuzo announced.
Hearing this, Sora was eager to participated. He wanted to see this Xyz's duelist power beforehand. Gongenzaka seemed voluntary too. Even he wasn't a member of Yu Show, he still thought himself as a big part of the school.
"I will be your opponent. Since we are the ones who found you, it should be my job to impress you with my entertaiment duel." Yuya proudly said.
"Yuya.." Yuzu whispered.
'This is getting interesting.' Sora thought to himself.
"Then it's settled! Prepare for a hot-blooded duel!" Shuzo said before rushing to the control room.
The two duelist moved to the Real Solid Vision arena while Yuzu, Sora and the kids moved to spectator area while Shuzo was preparing action field.
"Have you been in an action duel before, Shark ?" Yuya asked.
"No, I haven't." Shark answered as Yuya and Shark's duel disks activated and Shark placed D-Gazer in his left eye.
"Since this is Shark first action duel, I will pick this! Field Spell: Legendary Ocean! On!" Shuzo yelled as the whole arena transformed a Large City in depth of the sea.
"This is a Field Spell ?" Shark said in confusion as he looked surrounding area.
"Nope. This is action field. There are no boost or effects to support a monsters, it just a Real Solid Vision and everything turned into reality." Yuya explained.
"I see. This action field matches definitely my tastes." Shark replied.
"Glad you like it!" Yuya said with a smile before start chanting. "Duelist locked in battle!"
Shark tilted his head. "What are you doing ?"
"This is action duel chant. Now, just follow me." Yuya answered.
"I see." Shark replied.

Shark's ace looked like of a two legged dark red sea serpent with four wings like fins on each side.
"Shark.. Drake.." Yuzu said in astonishment.
"So that's Shark's ace monster." Gongenzaka and Sora muttered.
"And when I thought Odd-Eyes was cool." Yuya muttered in mix of awe and jealousy.
"SHIVERS!" Futoshi exclaimed.
"Shark's ace monster is awesome!" The two other kids cheered.
LDS Office.
"President! The energy coming from that Xyz monster is incredibly powerful!" Nakajima remarked in a panicked.
Reiji who looked confused. 'Just who is this guy ? Not even my strongest Xyz monster can produce such an energy and I don't think any people from Xyz Dimension would come close.
'
Yu Show Duel School.
And then something strange happened, Shark's Shark Drake and Yuya's Odd-Eyes started to resonated.
"What are Yuya and Shark's monster doing ?" Yuzu asked in confusion.
"Maybe they recognized themself as rivals." Gongenzaka speculated.

The action field faded, Shark looked up to see Yuya on the floor with his friends gathering around him.
"You alright Yuya ? I think I got carried away." Shark asked him, corcerned about his state.
"Nah, it's fine." Yuya got helped from Yuzu to get up again which he only responded by smile. Shark, who saw the scene, instinctively asked the question.
"Are you boyfriend and girlfriend perhaps ? You two seem really close."
"I know right ? It's also what I thought the first time I met them." Sora added.
At Shark question, the two started to be a red as tomatoes.
"Why would you say that ? Yuya and I just friends." Yuzu shyly said.
"Yeah! Why would I want to date a rude strong girl like her." Yuya said pointing at Yuzu.
At that Yuya's comment, Shark slapped his face with his hand. 'Seriously Yuya ? Well, you better prepare for the worst.' Shark thought to himself with arms crossed.
As completing Shark prediction, a big 'SMACK' was heard. Yuya was sent to the floor by a very angry Yuzu holding her paper fan.
"HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT TO YOUNG LADY YOU JERK!" Yuzu yelled.
'Really need to know where she hide that fan..' Shark thought, hopefully will found out one day.
"S-sorry Yuzu." Yuya apologized, rubbing his head.
"So does that mean Shark won't join our school ?" Ayu said with sad look.
"Who said I won't ?" Shark told them as they looked at Shark with surprised.
"Really ? But why ? It's not that I'm complaining but didn't Yuya needed to beat you to make you join ?" Yuzu asked.
"If you remember correctly, that wasn't the agreement." Shark told them, only to make them more confused. "The point was to show your belief on dueling."
"Our belief on dueling ?"
"That's right. Having fun in dueling is a thing that a lot of people forgets and only duels for win. I, myself, almost forgot the last time I duel for fun. You, Yuya, reminded me what a duel is truly about. Only for that, I will join Yu Show Duel School." Shark said firmly.
At Shark declaration, the kids cheered and Shuzo crying waterfalls (again).
"That's truly a hot-blooded answer Shark!" The principal said, still crying waterfalls.
"I, the man Gongenzaka, really touched by your words. You have my deepest respects." The man said with slight tears on his eyes.
"Well Shark, let me be the first one to welcome you to You Show Duel School." Yuya said extending his hand, which Shark accepted.
"Thank you Yuya." Shark said with a small smile on his face.
LDS Office.
Reiji hummed while reclining into his chair.
"He certainly knows how to give motivating speeches, doesn't he ?" Nakajima asked.
"He does." Reiji replied. "The energy coming from his Xyz Summoning is very powerful, even more than Academia's Fusion Summoning and I don't feel any hatred nor evil in his duel which seriously decreased the probability as Academia's spy. He maybe from Xyz Dimension but we cannot say for sure. If he does, he probably come here for searching any help since Xyz Dimension is burn to the ground. Having a duelist like him will be an excellent addition to the Lancers. However, I don't think he used his true potential."
"How can you be so sure President ?"
"I simply have a feeling, that his true powers has yet to be seen. I will duel him myself to see if I'm right about this." Reiji stood up before he looked at the picture of Shark as he though.
'Just where are you from, Reginald Kessler ?'
Yu Show Duel School.
Once the duel was over, Shark signed the papers Shuzo gave him. After that, Shark and the others discussing about random things until Sora asked Shark something.
"So Shark, why did you choose Xyz deck ?"
"I think they are best suited for me. I know how to Fusion and Synchro Summon but Xyz remains my favorite. But of course, we all have our preferences." Shark replied as Sora nodded in understatement.
"Oh didn't see it was already late. I should back to the dojo." Gongenzaka then turned to Shark. "It was a pleasure to meet you Shark. See you tomorrow. Good night everyone!" Then he left.
"Good night Gongenzaka!" Everyone said goodbye to the man.
"So Shark, what are you going to do now ?" Yuya asked.
"I need to find a place to stay." Shark answered.
"You don't have a place to stay ?" Yuzu asked.
"Nope. I was about to find one but Sawatari and his goons showed up and I totally forgot about that." Shark answered.
"Then why don't you stay at my house ?" Yuya asked.
"Sorry Yuya, I don't want to bother you." Shark said to him.
"Don't worry about it, it's not big deal. My mom won't mind." Yuya said with a smile.
"Hmm.. okay then."
Then Shark and the others went to their home. Shark and Yuya just arrived at Yuya's house, passing the door as they heard a female voice from the kitchen.
"Yuya! Is that you ?"
Then the figure show up. It was a fairly tall and youthful looking woman with green eyes and long blonde hair with front golden bangs.
"Yes mom, it's me. I also brought a guest. Shark, meet me mom. Mom, Shark." Yuya introduced Shark to his mom.
"Nice to meet you." She told Shark with a small smile.
"She is your mother Yuya ? I though she is your big sister since how young and pretty he looks." Shark said honestly.
The words young and pretty makes Yuya's mom jumped on Shark and hugged him very tightly.
"Oh my! What an gentleman you are to call someone like me young and pretty!"
"Mom please! He's only 16!" Yuya begged to his mom.
"Oh right. Sorry." Then Yuya's mom quickly released Shark from hugging.
"Thank you. So mom, Shark don't have a place to live so I though he can stay with us." Yuya explained to his mom.
"Of course! He can stay as long as he wants! I will finished a dinner for you two okay ?"
"Thank you Mrs. Sakaki, I'll do my best to not burden anyone in your house." Shark said respectively.
"You're so nice Shark-kun! I happy knowing Yuya has great friends like you. And you can just call me Yoko." Yoko said happily.
After Dinner.
"I'll show you my room Shark. I'm more than willing to share." Yuya said.
"Are you sure Yuya ? I don't mind sleeping on the couch." Shark asked.
"Don't be to shy Shark. I really don't mind." Yuya replied.
"If you say so.." Shark said casually as he though about something. 'Why all my Number monster doesn't have Number on it ? Maybe because in this world Astral and Barians world doesn't exist. I'm lucky that I still have my 3 aces.' And after that, he's started asleep.
