Hey guys, its Chyna here with a new Zexal story because Cosmic Kiss got me addicted to Zexal. I haven't updated because of my stupid exams but now they are finally over!
I noticed that there are no Yuma having a twin stories, so I decided to strike while the iron is hot and be the very first! I can now officially say that people copied my idea if I see any Yuma having a twin stories!
Cosmic Kiss inspired me with her story, Jaden's Twin Sister which I recommend those who love GX to read as it has over 400 reviews and its on chapter 31, so catch up while you still can.
The cover for this story is a picture of Yumi (my OC) and this story will be following the Zexal storyline except I'll be making massive changes because of Yumi. I hope you enjoy this!
The song for this chapter would be "Seven Nation Army" by The White Stripes. You'll find out why I chose this song once this chapter is over. Enjoy!
Behind every successful man (or boy), lies a great woman (or girl). At least that's what I like to believe and trust me when I say if it wasn't for me, Yuma would have crashed and burned ages ago.
Sorry, I forgot to tell you guys that Yuma is my twin brother. Before anybody goes, "Wow," or, "You have a twin? That's so cool!" Let me tell you a few things about what it's like being a twin; it's not all it's cracked out to be.
It's not all sharing secrets, or twin telepathy, being a twin can be really annoying. Like especially when people expect you to exactly be like your twin. Phew, thanks for letting me get all of that off my chest. Now let me start off my story by telling you a very important name, Yumi Tsukumo.
I bet you're wondering why this name is so important, simple, it's because that's my name. My parents weren't very creative when they were giving Yuma and I, names; I mean just swap the 'A' in 'Yuma' and replace it with 'I'. What do you get? Yumi! They were probably thinking, "They're twins, so they should probably have similar names."
I mean how cliché is that? Anywho, at this very moment I'm going to take you all on an adventure that has everything you want to see in a story. Such as adventure, drama, family, friendship and maybe even romance!
This is the story about how I and my brother, Yuma became Number Hunter's and went on a crazy adventure that was literally life changing!
"Yuma, wake up!" I started to prod him urgently in the stomach.
It was 8:00am in the morning and we were already late for school! For some reason Yuma liked to sleep in the Treasury Attic instead of his own bedroom and in a hammock instead of his bed. Sure he likes to feel closer to our kaa-chan and tou-chan, but seriously, is a drafty attic really better than a nice warm bedroom?
I had already changed into my school uniform which consisted of a sleeveless white blouse; an extremely short pink skirt which only just managed covered my butt, black socks and light brown school shoes.
After five seconds Yuma fell out of his hammock and rolled onto the floor.
"Huh?" He asked before looking at the clock and jumping to his feet, "Arrrrrh! Why didn't anybody wake me up?"
However before I could answer his question he jumped to his feet and stormed out of the room. Typical Yuma, I thought before I climbed down the rope that led from the attic to downstairs where I had left my school bag.
Akari (our nee-san) was hard at work, using several computer monitors in order to search for the next big 'scoop'. Akari is a journalist which I hated because she usually forced either me or Yuma to find her the next big story which she could report on. Last week I was stuck in the library for the entire day because apparently the librarian was stealing books. That's five hours of my life that I'm never getting back.
Akari had dark pink hair that she always tied in a ponytail, fair skin and grey eyes. She was wearing a baby blue short sleeved shirt with an orange and black hooded jumper. She currently wore her Duel Gazer which had a white frame with an orange lens.
"Where's Yuma?" She asked without looking away from her screens.
"Getting ready for school, he never wakes up on time." I rolled my eyes.
Yuma swung down from the rope that connected the attic to the living room; he was finally dressed in his uniform. He was wearing a short sleeved white shirt with red accents, a red tie, dark blue trousers and he had his school bag, looks like we might not be late to school today...just as long as there are no more distractions.
"Akari, why didn't you wake me up?" Yuma moaned.
"You know I'm always busy in the morning with my work and since you're in middle school you should wake yourself up." She replied in an annoyed tone of voice.
"She's got you there Yuma." I sang.
He shot me a look of death, "As my twin, you're supposed to be backing me up!"
"I could have left you fast asleep in your bed but I decided to wake you up. Now let's go!" I demanded.
Yuma is always making us leave late for school, he's just lucky that it's a fifteen minute walk and ten minutes if you run the entire way. This is what we usually end up doing because of Yuma. He pulled his cheeks to make an ugly face at Akari before he ran out of the house with me on his trail.
Our oba-san was sweeping the pavement outside of the house, so I quickly gave her a goodbye kiss on the cheek.
"Bye Oba-san!" I exclaimed.
Yuma pulled his brown shoes on prior to running out of the house, "Bye Oba-san, I have to go to school!"
"What about my goodbye kiss?" She asked as Yuma was about to leave.
"I don't have any time, I'm late for school!" Yuma ran past Oba-san and her eyes flashed with anger.
If there is one thing I've learnt, Oba-san will always get a kiss in the morning by any means, even by force. Indeed I was right because Oba-san used the handle of her broom to catch Yuma's collar while lifting him off from the ground. For an elderly woman, she is incredibly strong.
"Yumi can give me a goodbye kiss, so why can't you?" She asked.
Yuma started to flail around in the air like a fish caught on the end of a fishing hook, "She's a girl!"
"Either you give me a goodbye kiss or there will be trouble." She threatened.
I laughed at Yuma's ordeal; how I love the morning. Eventually Yuma had finally kissed Oba-san and we were on our way to school.
"I had such a weird dream last night." Yuma admitted.
I gasped at his statement, "So did I. It was about this demonic looking door but I always wake up before anything happens."
Yuma nearly tripped at what I said, "Same here, it always says some kinda creepy words but before I can open the door, I'm falling and then I wake up."
That is such a strange coincidence, but I never hear anything that door says and I'm never falling in midair. Yuma broke me out of my thoughts when he leapfrogged over an Obot, which caused it to spin wildly out of control.
Obots were large white robots that had a small circular face, four wheels and two thin silver mechanical arms. Like their name suggested, they picked up litter.
"Sorry!" Yuma shouted.
On a normal day I would have helped it but I hate being late to school.
"Hey twins!" A voice from behind us shouted out.
Oh you have got to be kidding me; we're so going to be late for school.
Tetsuo jumped over us on his skateboard before stopping in front of us, "Hey Yuma, how about we race to the school entrance."
That wasn't a question, this was a challenge and Yuma could never resist a challenge. But then again, neither could I.
"Oh it's on!" I grinned at Tetsuo.
"You bet it's on." Yuma threw a rice cake into his mouth before running in the same direction as Bronk.
Legs don't fail me now, I thought as I ran and caught up with Yuma.
"I'm gaining on Tetsuo!" Yuma exclaimed before I stopped by the top of the stairwell.
I need to be careful or else I'll break my neck. Tetsuo was sliding down the slope of the stairs using his skateboard, while Yuma was running down the stairs. Tetsuo was able to reach the bottom before Yuma and then he literally pulled a dirty trick. He kicked one of the Obots which spiralled into Yuma and all Hell broke loose.
Yuma was sprawled onto the pavement with a pile of litter and his Duel Monster cards were mixed up together. I could see a small group of Litterbot's enroute to Yuma's cards. They probably though his cards were litter!
I quickly ran down the stairs and did a flying kick to one of the Litterbots and helped Yuma up. Suddenly an Obot picked up Yuma's Monster Reborn card.
"Trash," it exclaimed.
Yuma snatched it off of it, "They're not trash! They're my dueling deck!"
Two Obots started to pick up more of his cards, "Dueling trash."
It was my turn to pinch another one of Yuma's cards, "Listen you tin twits, they're not trash!"
I got protective of Yuma's deck because it used to be my tou-chan's before he...disappeared. Its unfair how Yuma got the Emperor's Key as well as my father's deck.
The only thing I got was my mother's kaa-chan's deck and even that's not enough. Sure a deck is a reflection of a duelist's soul, but sometimes it just isn't enough to help me feel closer to my parents. In the end we managed to save all of Yuma's cards and we were inevitability late to school.
The first lesson of the day was Maths with Mr. Kay who is the coolest teacher in school! He is super nice and whenever I or Yuma was late, he didn't shout at us. He had lush burgundy hair, tanned skin and grey eyes. He wore brown chinos, a long sleeved white shirt, a brown waistcoat and brown shoes.
Today's lesson was on Simultaneous Equations which were pretty tricky but I still tried my hardest because I didn't want to disappoint Mr. Kay. In the end, my work looked like a big black scribble because I had crossed out my answers so many times.
I sighed with relief when the bell rang, signalling that it was the end of lesson one because now it was break time. We had a fifteen intermission before lesson two started. Everybody usually just ate a quick snack while chatting with their friends.
I usually stayed in a small group with Yuma, Kotori and Tetsuo. We mainly talked about dueling which made me feel sorry for Kotori because she didn't duel nor did she own a deck. Time flew so quickly, that I was surprised when the bell rang.
My second class of the day was Gym which was never boring because of Tetsuo challenging Yuma to do crazy things. Like today, Tetsuo dared Yuma to jump over twenty blocks to set the school record. I didn't know if Yuma would be able to do it, but it would be fun to see him try.
Everybody was wearing their gym uniform. All of the boys wore a white short sleeved shirt with red accents and blue shorts with red accents. All of the girls however, wore a light blue short sleeved shirt with red accents and plain pink shorts.
"Yuma, you can do it." I patted him on his back as a sign of support.
"Thanks Imouto. That record is going down as I'm about to high five the sky!" Yuma shouted as he ran up to the springboard and jumped on it.
He was instantly vaulted into the air and for one mad moment, I thought he was going to make the jump. Sadly I was wrong, because he crashed into the middle of the boxes. I instantly ran over to Yuma to examine how badly he had been hurt.
"Are you alright Yuma?" Kotori asked as the entire class burst into laughter.
Kotori is one of me and Yuma's closest friends. She is a sweet natured girl who always sticks by Yuma's side. Secretly I think she has a crush on him but I would never tell anyone. Kotori has fair skin, big orange eyes and short green hair that she ties with an orange ribbon.
"I'm okay; the ground is not that hard." Yuma mumbled.
"Nice try bud!" Tetsuo laughed as he pointed at Yuma.
Yuma was obviously in a great deal of pain but he refused to go to the Nurses office.
"I'm fine; I can still kattobingu." He stated.
Kattobingu is what my tou-chan always used to say to Yuma and me. It means never give up and strive towards your goal; it was his philosophy which Yuma always kept to. I'm a great believer when it comes to kattobingu. Next our entire class went to the swimming pool (we changed into our swimming costumes first) where another challenge was set for Yuma by Tetsuo (as per usual).
Yuma had to swim an entire lap underwater in one breath. Tetsuo, Kotori and I started to debate as Yuma went underwater.
"Good luck Yuma." Kotori called out.
"I know you can do this." I stated.
"No way, it's impossible." Tetsuo laughed.
After a few seconds, several bubbles started to appear on top of the water before Yuma appeared. He was spitting out water and his face had a green tinge to it.
"Told you, he's such an idiot," Tetsuo laughed.
I wasn't laughing at Yuma's pain; I fished him out of the water before trying the challenge myself.
"You're nuts," Tetsuo scoffed, "obviously you're going to crash and burn, just like Yuma did."
I grinned at his statement, "Allow me to prove you wrong."
I dove into the azure blue waters, held my breath, closed my eyes and swam as fast as I could. I don't know how long I was under the water for, but I had bumped into a solid wall which could only mean one thing!
I pulled myself out of the pool and I was greeted by several stunned faces.
"In your face Tetsuo-kun," I laughed at him before high fiving Yuma.
"That is so unfair! I would've won if I didn't swallow the pool water half way!" Yuma pouted.
"Excuses, excuses," I shook my head at him.
"It's true!" He announced.
The bell started to ring which indicated that Gym was officially over.
My last lesson before lunch is English, which is not my favourite lesson. Don't get me wrong, English isn't that bad but my teacher, Mrs. Johnson can't teach our class to save her life. She is a buxom woman with fair skin, light brown hair and she wears bottle bottom glasses, so I don't know what colour her eyes are. She wears a burgundy skirt suit and black high heels.
Half of the time, she just told us to read a chapter on our laptops (basically it's the tablet part of the Duel Pad) but instead of reading a chapter, I just surf the internet or read another book of my choosing.
Nobody ever catches me because nobody sits next to me, and I sit at the back of the class. Nothing eventful happened in the lesson until near the end.
"With it, I can kattobingu!" Yuma shouted while standing up from his seat.
I face palmed at what Yuma had done, I felt sorry for Kotori because she had the 'privilege' of sitting next to Yuma. Mrs. Johnson stood in front of Yuma and the entire class was staring at him.
"Sorry." He chuckled before sitting back down.
The bell immediately started to ring so it was now Lunchtime, also known as Dueling Time. I packed away my stuff and stormed out of the room. I didn't bother to wait for Yuma and Kotori because they were being forced to stay behind for a few minutes as punishment for talking during class.
I ran outside and watched how some of the students were already dueling; I was tempted to put my Duel Gazer on so that I could watch some duels, but sometimes Augmented Reality got pretty real (even though that was the point).
I started to wander around the yard, watching people duel until I bumped into a boy who was in the second year class, which caused my entire deck to fall on the floor. I instantly recognised him as Shark, because of one simple reason. He's the school bully, the guy who nobody wants to cross.
He has fair skin, sapphire blue eyes and long purple hair that nearly reached his shoulders and it curled at the end. He wore the standard male second year uniform which consisted of a white short sleeved shirt with green accents, green tie, blue trousers and dark brown shoes.
I immediately sunk to the floor to pick up my cards while apologizing to Shark at the same time, "Uwa gomen nasai."
I wasn't scared of Shark; I was just apologizing because it was the polite thing to do. His eyes immediately swept over my cards and he bent down to pick them up. At first I thought he was helping me, until we had gathered all of my cards anyway.
"Can I have my cards back?" I asked as I got off of the floor.
He instantly smirked at me, "And what would I get in return?"
He's probably expecting me to plead, but why would I? These are my cards after all and I'm not going to let some punk take them away from me.
"My gratitude," I replied timidly.
He started to tap his chin with his index finger as if he was in deep thought; but I knew better.
"Not good enough, these are my cards now." He laughed as he pocketed my cards.
I don't know what came over me next, but suddenly Shark was underneath me and I was strangling him while I repeatedly hit the back of his head on the ground (we were on the grass and it wasn't actually hurting him).
"Give me back my cards, you douche!" I shouted at him.
What's wrong with me? I'm never this violent and I don't curse in public, but then again my deck has never been in danger before. This deck is the last connection I have with my kaa-chan and nothing nor anybody, will take it away from me.
All of a sudden I could feel a pair of hands on me, pulling me off of Shark even though I was kicking and screaming my head off.
"Get off me! Let me go!" I screamed.
I could tell that this wasn't going to end well, but I was going to get the rest of my cards back, even if it killed me.
"Simmer down Girly." One of Shark's lackeys' stated.
"How about you go suck on a lemon?" I snapped.
Not one of my best comebacks, but I was angry and my head wasn't clear. Shark pulled himself off the floor and dusted the grass off his clothes. Instead of looking angry, he looked amused which made me angrier.
"You got spirit, so I'll give you a chance to win your deck back. We duel and if you win then I'll let you go. However if I win, then I get your deck, deal?" He asked.
The stakes for this duel are too high; I mean there is too much pressure and I don't duel well under pressure. But what other choice did I have?
"Fine, we have a deal." I sighed as Shark handed me my cards back.
I could try to make a run for it, but I don't fancy the odds. Looks like I'm dueling. I threw the touch screen for my Duel Disk in the air so that it could unfold while I took the rest of my Duel Disk off my waist and attached it to my left wrist.
"Duel Disk set!" I shouted as I attached the touch screen to my Duel Disk.
"Duel Gazer, let's go!" I exclaimed as I put my Duel Gazer.
It was similar to Kotori's Duel Gazer (actually most girls in my school year use the same Duel Gazer as Kotori) except it was entirely lilac with a green lens.
My Duel Gazer matched my Duel Disk which was the standard version except, it was entirely violet.
Shark activated his own Duel Disk which was the blue version of mine. His Duel Gazer was green with grey accents, a yellow triangle on the top left corner with a pink lens which turned his left eye pink. I thought it looked kinda gay because Shark didn't strike me as the type of person who likes pink.
"Duel interface on." The entire field was briefly covered in numbers before turning back to normal.
"Duel," We both shouted.
Yumi: 4000
Shark: 4000
"Its time for some star power, I draw." I yelled.
Yuma's catchphrase is, "Get set to get decked." So I consider, "Its time for some star power," My own catchphrase. Sure it doesn't have the same ring to it, but it was still fun to say and it matched my deck.
When I duel I usually let my opponent win, which I know sounds kinda obnoxious but it's the truth. Dueling is meant to be about having fun, but the more duels you win; the more the audience expects more of you, which equals massive pressure to the duelist to win.
I rather lose every duel and have my spectators expect less from me, then win every duel and have my spectators place huge amounts of pressure on me to win. I heard that last year, Shark was in the Pro-League which means he'll be hard to beat. But if I beat him, then everybody will think I'm an amazing duelist and pressure me all the time. I'm so confused!
Still, if I lose then Yuma can always win my deck back. I guess I'll just see how this duel goes; I'll play it safe by acting like I don't know how to play Duel Monsters.
"I'll set one monster card in defense mode and I'll place one trap card face-down to end my turn." I finished.
Shark and his friends laughed at me, I acted like I didn't know what they were laughing about.
"What's so funny?" I asked in an innocent tone of voice.
"You're not meant to say what type of card you place face-down." Shark explained.
I acted like I was shocked, "Really? I had no idea, I'm sorry! I don't know how to duel."
"That is so obvious; I summon Big Jaws (3/1800/300) in attack mode."
Big Jaws was a light blue shark with a metal fin on its back and a metal jaw. It 'smiled' at me which made me feel uncomfortable.
"Now I activate Aqua Jet which increases its attack by 1000, making Big Jaws 2800 until the end of the turn. Now I'll attack your face-down monster!" Shark commanded.
It swam over to my monster tried to eat it, "I activate my face-down card, Negate Attack, this does...something." I blushed.
A vortex appeared in front of Big Jaws which prevented it from attacking.
Shark rolled his eyes, "You activated your face-down even though you don't know what it does?"
"Maybe..."
Negate Attack basically does what its name suggests; it negates Big Jaws attack and ends Shark's battle phase.
"Negate Attack negates my attack and ends my battle phase." He explained in an impatient tone of voice.
I acted like I only just realised what he said, "Ooohhh that makes sense."
He covered his eyes with his left hand, "I have nothing to say to you, so I'll end my turn with a face-down card and Big Jaws goes back to its original 1800."
"I now flip my monster, rise up Constellar Acubens (4/800/2000) into attack mode." I smiled.
Constellar Acubens is a silver mechanical man with orange pincers and the Cancer constellation appeared behind it as my monster appeared.
"Why the hell would you put a monster with powerful defense in attack mode?" He asked.
I acted shocked, "Did I do something wrong?"
"All you've done is made this duel easier for me to win." He laughed.
"So Sharky, quick question, what's your star sign?" I asked.
He looked surprised, "What?"
"I'm just making small talk; in fact I want to tell you your horoscope." I grinned.
"I don't know what you're going on about." He growled.
"I would say that you're a Sagittarius which means you were born around the 21st November to the 21st December, correct?" I asked.
His eyes lightly widened, "That changes nothing!"
I winked at him, "If only you knew Sharky, in fact I have just the monster for you. Come on out Constellar Kaust (4/1800/700) in attack mode!"
A man wearing bright silver and blue armour appeared. He was holding a gold bow and arrow and the Sagittarius sign appeared behind him.
"Now Sagittarius' people are very independent and crave excitement and adventure which describes you very well." I explained.
Shark started to stamp his feet impatiently, "We're meant to be dueling! Not messing around with stupid horoscopes!"
"That's where you're wrong, we're dueling and you'll wish you never messed with me! I overlay level 4 Acubens and Kaust to build the Overlay Network to Xyz summon Constellar Omega (4/2400/500) in attack mode!" I shouted.
My two monsters turned into two streams of white light and flew into a black hole on the floor in front of us. A white, gold and blue armoured centaur appeared on my field and it was holding a golden circular shield.
"No way," Shark exclaimed.
He had definitely bought my little 'I can't duel' act and now he was going to suffer the consequences. Underestimating your opponent is always the worst mistake you can make.
"Now Omega, attack Big Jaws!" I pointed at the ugly shark monster.
Omega started to charge towards Big Jaws.
"I activate Zeus's Breath so your attack is negated and you lose 800 for each Water-Type monster on the field I control." Shark smirked.
It was now my turn to smirk, "Haven't you heard of special abilities? By detaching an Overlay unit, all Constellar monsters aren't affected by spell and traps cards this turn so you've just lost your monster, your trap card and some of your life-points."
"Shit!"
Omega hit Big Jaws on its face (if Shark's have faces).
Yumi: 4000
Shark: 3400
"Now I'll end my turn with another face-down." I concluded.
If Shark thinks he's in for an easy ride, then he's going to be surprised because nobody is going to take my kaa-chan's deck away from me, nobody.
Cliffhanger, you have to love them. I decided to replace Bronk dueling Shark with Yumi dueling Shark. Will Yumi beat Shark? Or will she lose her deck? Review, subscribe or favourite the story.
You'll get virtual cookies as a reward and my gratitude. If this story doesn't become popular, I'll still update but it won't be on the top of my updating list as I have other stories. On my profile is my Facebook page which will have pictures of Yumi.
I'll be publishing more pictures of Yumi and maybe even her Duel Gazer on there.
