Chapter 19: A Cyberse Rose Dragon.

In LINK VRAINS' street stood Pink dragon Mask, Blue Angel, Akira and the creator of the Ignis himself, Doctor Kogami. Pink Dragon Mask, Velvet, Blue Angel and Akira were shocked to see the formerly believed deceased scientists stand before them, while Dr. Kogami didn't looked shocked at seeing Specter failed his mission.

"This can't be possible, you're...Dr. Kogami!?" Akira asked, stunned at seeing the man he believed was dead. "There's a strong virus in those vines. If you touch it, you'll lose consciousness''. Dr. Kogami told Akira with a smirk at what will happen if he touches those vines.

"But how, SOL technologies said that you died? Was it a lie?" Akira asked the Doctor, still stunned that he was alive. "It was no lie, I really am dead, thanks to SOL Technologies." Dr. Kogami replied to Akira, shocking everyone.

"SOL Technologies...killed you? But how?" Blue Angel asked on how the company that her brother works for killed Dr. Kogami. "I don't understand. If you're dead, how are you here in Link VRAINS?" Akira asked Dr. Kogami on how he could be here in Link VRAINS. "Simple, I was revived''. Dr. Kogami replied with a smirk on his face, making the everyone widen their eyes in shock.

"Revived, there's no way that can happen!'' Velvet called out in shock, her eye almost popping out of her partner's Duel Disk. "She's right, you can't just revive from the dead''. Blue Angel called out in disbelief, refusing to accept that this old man came back from the dead.

"Ten years ago, I worked for SOL Technologies". Dr. Kogami started to explain to Akira, Blue Angel, Pink Dragon Mask and Velvet. "You're saying the company ordered the Lost Incident?" Akira asked Dr. Kogami if the company ordered the Lost Incident.

"No. That company can't comprehend my ideas. When the incident came to light, the company imprisoned me and covered everything up." The scientists explained, shocking them as they learned more of what happened. "In order to monopolize the Igins I developed. They smelled money when it came to Ignis. If the incident was publicized, they thought the police would seize the Ignis". Dr. Kogami continued to explain with everyone looking at him in disbelief.

"No way..." Akira muttered in disbelief at hearing what SOL Technologies did in the past. "I don't believe it". Blue Angel whispered to herself in shock. "They infected me with a computer virus to put me in a coma. I was able to go home years after the incident. They thought I was dead. But my sons didn't give up. They removed the virus, and they recreated my mind in the network." Dr. Kogmai continued explaining the circumstances of his return.

"Then you created the Knights of Hanoi to get revenge on SOL tech?" Pink Dragon Mask asked the Dr if he created the Knights of Hanoi for revenge with Velvet nodding her eye in agreement to what her partner said.

Dr. Kogami turned to the young girl and young Ignis, the latter with much intrigue. "Revenge is incorrect. Our only goal is to kill the Ignis". Dr. Kogami corrected, making Velvet look scared that he wants to kill her. "But why! What have they done wrong!?" Pink Dragon Mask shouted out, wanting to know why Dr. Kogami wants to kill her partner when she did nothing wrong.

"They were supposed to guide the world. But they're savages that'll destroy the world." Dr. Kogmai explained, glaring at Velvet, making her cower under his gaze.

"Savages...?" Akira and Blue Angel whispered in confusion, wondering how small creatures are savages. "No one knows what it truly means for an AI to have free will. Also..." Kogami continued to explain, before once again looked down at Pink Dragon Mask and Velvet.

"I never gave the Ignis the ability to reproduce, there for that Ignis you possess should not exist". Kogmai stated, shocking the child Iginis and everyone else. "W-what..." Velvet muttered to herself. 'She shouldn't exist...' Those words echoed through her head, causing her to lower her head in confusion.

"No, you're wrong!" Pink Drago Mask shouted to the Doctor, refusing to stand by and let her friend and her kind be insulted by him. "The Ignis aren't humanity's enemy. They'll only become that because of people who try to abuse and control them for the wrong reasons! I know that because I've bonded with Velvet, she's become one of my best friends!" Pink Dragon Mask shouted out, defending Velvet and her kind, causing the young Ignis' eyes to shimmer as tears began to build up.

"A young child like you wouldn't be able to understand the dangers they bring, they've advanced faster than I ever expected. They must be destroyed, simple as that for humanity''. Dr. Kogami said to Pink Dragon Mask, not bothered in the least by her outburst.

"The good of humanity! What good would come from destroying the network and put millions of people in danger, even people from the world that my student came from!'' Blue Angel snapped at Dr. Kogami for what he said, getting her brother's attention. "Skye, what to you mean?'' Akira asked his sister on what she meant about people from Pink Dragon Mask's world being in danger.

"The Knights of Hanoi didn't just set the tower for our network, it's set to destroy the network in the world that White Dragon Mask and his friends came from. And even if we stop the tower, White Dragon Mask and his friends are gonna loose their only to go home''. Blue Angel explained to her brother on what she meant, making him widen his eyes in shock. "You would even put innocent people from a different world in danger as well, not to mention take away White Dragon Mask's chance to go back to his home!'' Akira snapped at Dr. Kogami, now knowing even more lives were at stake.

"I didn't wish for it to come to this, believe me. After 10 years ago, I had hopped to never involve the world of the four dimensions in my affairs again''. Dr. Kogami replied to Akira calmly, getting everyone to look at him in confusion. "What do you mean 'never involve again?'' Velvet asked in confusion at what Dr. Kogami said.

"You may find it hard to believe, but I was the one that created the portal between the two worlds''. Dr. Kogami revealed that he was the one who first opened the portal between the two worlds, making everyone widen their eyes in shock.

"You were the one that created the portal between the two worlds! Why!?'' Akira asked Dr. Kogami on why he created the portal between the two worlds. "…Coexistence…''. Dr. Kogami replied to Akira's question, confusing everyone. "Coexis…tence…?'' Pink Dragon Mask asked in confusion at what Dr. Kogami said.

"When I first learned of the world of the four dimensions, I couldn't believe that there was another world out there. I made it a goal in my life for our world and the world of the four dimensions to coexist together''. Dr. Kogami explained what he meant, making everyone widen their eyes in shock.

"You wanted the two worlds to be connected with each other!?'' Blue Angel asked in shock at what she's heard from the creator of the Ignis. "Correct, that is why like in this world, I kidnapped 6 children and did a special test with them to create the special Ignis''. Dr. Kogami continued to explain, increasing everyone's shock.

"All three of you already know the six children, after all they have the special Ignis with them''. Dr. Kogami said with a natural expression, making everyone gasp as they knew who he was talking about. "No way…White Dragon Mask, Purple Night, Green Witch, Lunalight Dancer, Music Singer and Black Rose Dragon Mask…you made them experience the lost incident''. Akira said with narrowed eyes at the revelation that Dr. Kogami made 6 more children suffer.

"The lost incident involving them was different. They showed more progress than the children of the original lost incident. When a year passed, I sealed their memories and returned them home to their separate dimensions''. Dr. Kogami continued to explain, making everyone widen their eyes at the unexpected answer that Dr. Kogami gave.

"You…let them go?'' Blue Angel asked in surprise that Dr. Kogami let them go home. "The creation of the special Ignis was complete, so I didn't need them anymore. However, the special Ignis took forms different than the original Ignis. They took forms of creatures or humans. The White Dragon Ignis, Azure. The Rose Dragon Ignis, Blaze. The Cat Ignis, Carla. The bird ignis, Raven. The Witch Ignis, Wendy. And finally the songstress Ignis, Yuna''. Dr. Kogami continued to explain about the special Ignis and how different they were.

"These six Ignis advanced faster than I believed, even creating a different Cyberse World from the six original Ignis''. Dr. Kogami continued to explain about Azure and the special Ignis, shocking Akira and Blue Angel, while Pink Dragon Mask and Velvet weren't surprised. "A different Cyberse world!'' Akira called out in shock at what he heard from Dr. Kogami.

"Indeed, time seemed to have went fast in that Cyberse world, which helped them advance and grow older quicker than the original Ignis. Than, something happened that I thought was impossible, the bird Ignis gave birth to a child Ignis, or to be more exact, that Ignis inside your duel disk, Pink Dragon Mask''. Dr. Kogami continued to explain, looking at Velvet with Blue Angel and Akira looking at the child Ignis in shock.

"Velvet, the daughter of the bird and Dragon Ignis. The first child Ignis in existence. After we attacked the original Cyberse world, I looked up all the data I had on you, it seems like you could be a more powerful Ignis than your parents''. Dr. Kogami said to Velvet, having been interested in her for a while now.

"Wait, if you said that the six special Ignis created a different Cyberse world, how do they know the Ignis that Playmaker has''. Akira asked Dr. Kogami about how Azure and the rest of the special Ignis know Ai and the other original Ignis. "The special Ignis found the original Cyberse world and travelled there, befriending the original Ignis, which all 12 Ignis would live together. However, no matter what it takes, we'll kill the Ignis''. Dr. Kogami replied to Akira, before he began to disappear from view.

"Wait!'' Blue Angel tried to call out, but Dr. Kogami fully disappeared from view. "Skye, listen. It's pretty clear that I'm not going anyway. Find White Dragon Mask and stay close, he'll keep you safe''. Akira told his sister to go find White Dragon Mask, who'll protect her. "But what about you!'' Blue Angel replied to her brother, worried about him getting left behind or something could happen to him.

"I'll be alright. You're a teacher now, so its your duty to protect your student, alright''. Akira replied to his sister, telling her that she must protect her student, leaving Blue Angel staring at her brother in disbelief for a few seconds, before she nodded. "We'll come back for you''. Pink Dragon Mask told Akira that they'll come back for him, which Akira nodded as Blue Angel and Pink Dragon Mask took off towards the Tower of Hanoi.

(Opening song end)


In another part of Link Vrains, Music Singer and Black Rose Dragon Mask were running down the street towards the Tower of Hanoi as fast as they could. "Partner, are you sure about this''. Yuna asked her partner if she was sure about destroying the tower of Hanoi. "I'm sure, I need to stop this thing before it kicks off!'' Music Singer replied to her partner without a second of hesitation, not afraid of what will happen if she succeeds.

"But if you really destroy the tower, than you'll never be able to go back home''. Yuna reminded her partner that if they destroyed the tower, they'll lose their only chance to return home. "No they won't!'' Blaze called out as she showed her true form, getting Yuna and Music Singer's attention.

"If Azure and I quickly go inside the Tower of Hanoi and find the program that connects the two worlds, we'll be able to prevent the world of the four dimension's network destruction, and as a bonus, we'll have what we need to return our partners home''. Blaze explained to Yuna and Music Singer if she and Azure acted quickly, they'll be able to get the program that'll return them home.

"So don't lose hope. We're going home after this and see our friends and family again!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask explained to Music Singer to keep going and not stop, getting a nod from her. "Right!'' Music Singer called out with a smile, making Black Rose Dragon Mask smile as they refocused on getting to the tower.

Soon they came across a bridge, that'll lead to the other side. "Music Singer! Black Rose Dragon Mask!'' A familiar voice called out, getting Music Singer and Black Rose Dragon Mask to turn around to see Green Witch and Playmaker running up to them. "Look its Green Witch". Music Singer called out in joy at seeing her friends. "Along with Playmaker". Black Rose Dragon Mask said with a smile on her face.

"Don't forget Ai and Wendy''. Blaze reminded the two humans about Wendy and Ai. "I honestly didn't expect to run into them till we reached the tower.''. Yuna said with a relieved expression on her face. "Music Singer and Black Rose Dragon Mask, glad to see you two okay''. Playmaker said with a smile, glad to see his friends alright. "Thanks Playmaker''. Black Rose Dragon Mask thanked him for his kind words. "Let's save the sweet talking for later!'' Ai interrupted, going into his true form and holding up his right hand's index finger.

The four, plus their Ignis partners looked at the tower of Hanoi, which was a little away from them. "We have gotta take that thing down!'' Wendy called out in her eye form. "Agreed, if only all four of our partners could fly, like someone's partner''. Yuna said in agreement as her, Ai and Wendy looked at Blaze. "Don't look at me, I wasn't in charge of creating their avatars!'' Blaze snapped at her friends, annoyed that they were blaming her.

The group of heroes began to run towards the other side of the bridge, but were stopped by yet another Knight of Hanoi. It was a young woman with hair similar to Harpie Lady's but came down to the neck and was blue, she wore a violet sleeveless leather jacket with a black t-shirt, and matching jeans, black high heels, pale skin and blue eyes, and finally wings attached to her arms like Harpie Lady's wings.

"I can't let you pass through here and face Varis". The Knight of Hanoi said to Playmaker and the girls, her voice sounding likes a girl's.

"How many more are there!'' Ai shouted out in irritation at how many sidekicks Varis has. "Who are you?" Playmaker asked the new female Knight of Hanoi on who she is. "I'm known as Sayla and I'm Varis' right hand and childhood friend as much as Spectre. If you want to pass through here, you'll have to defeat me in a duel". The woman introduced herself to the group as Varis' right hand.

"I'll accept your…" Playmaker started to call out, till Black Rose Dragon Mask held out her right claw in front of him, getting Playmaker to look at her in surprise. "We'll handle this!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask said as she stepped forward in front of her friends. "Run along ahead''. Blaze told the others to go on ahead. "You're gonna duel''. Ai asked in surprise that Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze were gonna duel.

Blaze's eye turned into fire as the Action Field, Cross over activated around them, with Blaze turning into her true form. "Well I am stronger than you''. Blaze reminded Ai, looking like she was smirking. "AAAAAHHHHHH!'' Ai shouted out in response that Blaze was more advanced than him. "She's all yours girls, let her have it''. Green Witch said with a smile as she, Music Singer and Playmaker ran on ahead, passing Sayla who didn't try to stop them.

"You just made the greatest mistake of your life challenging me''. Sayla said with a smile as she showed her duel disk, which was actually like Playmaker and White Dragon Mask's Duel disk, only dark purple. "We'll see about that''. Black Rose Dragon Mask replied to her opponent as her duel disk activated. "You've got this, partner!'' Blaze called out to her partner, knowing she can win.

"Let's Duel!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask and Sayla called out as five cards appeared in front of them, with Action cards spreading across the field.

Black Rose Dragon Mask life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: five.

Sayla Life points: 4000/ number of cards in hand: five.

"The first move is mine!'' Sayla called out as five cards appeared in front of her. "Careful, we don't have any data on her and she's probably seen our Duels against those lackeys''. Blaze told her partner to be careful, having no data on this girl whatsoever. "Understood, but we have to wrap this up straight away''. Black Rose Dragon Mask reminded her partner that they needed to win as fast as they could.

(Play English Harpie Lady theme)

"I'll start by summoning…Harpie Lady!'' Sayla called out as a portal appeared in front of her, before Harpie Lady flew out of it. (Just to let you know, Harpie Lady is wearing her Japanese outfit)

Harpie Lady ATK Points: 1300/ Level: four.

"Harpie Lady!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out in surprise that Sayla uses Harpie Lady. "I'm not done yet! I play the field spell, Harpie's Hunting Ground!'' Sayla called out as a spell materialized on her field. "This field spell gives my Harpies a 200 Extra ATK and DEF boost!'' Sayla explained her field spell's effect as her Harpie Lady powered up.

Harpie Lady ATK Points: 1300 + 200 = 1500.

Sayla looked at her hand, which had Nighmare Tri-Mirror, Harpie Lady Sparrow Formation and Alluring Mirror Spirit. "I'll now activate the Alluring Mirror Spirit spell card!'' Sayla called out as a spell card materialized on her field. "I've never heard of that card before!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out in surprise, having never seen this spell card before.

"I'll set two face downs and end my turn!" Sayla declared her turn over as two face down cards materialized on her field.

Black Rose Dragon Mask Life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: five.

"My turn now, I draw!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she drew her card from her deck, which disappeared, before six cards appeared in front of her. "I'll start by special summoning Rose Dragon – Cherry Tail! I can summon this card if I control no monsters!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as Rose Dragon, Cherry Tail appeared on her field.

Rose Dragon – Cherry Tail ATK Points: 1500/ Level: four.

"Thank you, because since you summoned your lizard, you activated my trap, Nightmare Tri-Mirror!'' Sayla called out as one of her face down cards revealed itself, with a Mirror appearing on Sayla's field. "If we special summoned a monster, that trap summons a Copy Token that takes the form of your Harpie Lady''. Blaze explained the trap's effect for her partner as the Mirror showed Cherry Tail, before it changed into Harpie Lady, who flew out and next to the original Harpie Lady.

Copy Token ATK Points: 1500/ Level: four/ Attribute: Wind.

"She wanted me to special summoned, well too bad that she won't have those Harpies around for long! I summon Blue Rose Dragon!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as Blue Rose Dragon appeared on her field.

Blue Rose Dragon ATK Points: 1600/ Level: four.

"Battle time, Blue Rose Dragon attacks the Copy Token!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out with a smirk as Blue Rose Dragon charged at the Copy Token. Sayla smirked as she spread out her wings, which feathers fell as she took flight, grabbing an Action Card from one of the platforms.

"I play the Action card, High Dive!" Sayla called out with a smirk as the Action card disappeared from her hand, making Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze widen their eyes in surprise that Sayla knew about Action Cards. "She knows about Action Cards!'' Blaze called out in surprise that Sayla knew about Action Cards.

"Apparently and she picked up a good one''. Black Rose Dragon Mask replied to her partner as she spread her wings and took flight as well. "This Action card increases one monster on the field's ATK Points by 1000, so that's 2500 ATK Points for my Copy Token!'' Sayla explained what her Action card does as a white aura surrounded the Copy Token.

Copy Token ATK Points: 1500 + 1000 = 2500.

Black Rose Dragon Mask quickly grabbed an Action card from another Platform. "Two can play at that game, I activate the Action spell Extreme Sword!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as the spell she grabbed disappeared with a red aura surrounding Blue Rose Dragon Mask. "Well done, now your Blue Rose Dragon gains 1000 ATK Points!'' Blaze called out in a proud tone, knowing full well what the Action card does.

Blue Rose Dragon ATK Points: 1600 + 1000 = 2600.

"Go Blue rose gale!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as Blue Rose Dragon unleashed a blue breath attack that destroyed the Copy Token. (2600 – 2500 = 100)

Sayla life points: 4000 – 100 = 3900.

"Your old bat's next!'' Blaze called out with a smirk, making Harpie Lady look pissed at what the Ignis called her. "Go Cherry Tree, destroy Harpie Lady!'' Black Rose Dragon called out with a smirk as Cherry Tail charged at Harpie Lady. "Are you trying to get mutual destruction?'' Sayla asked Black Rose Dragon if she was willing to destroy her own monster to destroy her Harpie Lady.

Black Rose Dragon Mask flew to another platform, grabbing another Action card. "I was aiming for this! The Action spell, Attack Force!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as the Action card disappeared from her hand. "This Action Card increases my attacking monster's ATK Points by 600!"' Blaze explained the Action Card's effects as a red aura surrounded Cherry Tail.

Rose Dragon – Cherry Tail ATK Points: 1500 + 600 = 2100.

Sayla quickly flew around the platforms, searching for an Action card, which she found just in the nick of time. "I activate the Action card, Miracle! Now Harpie Lady's destruction is negated and the damage if halved!'' Sayla explained her Action card's effect as a force field appeared in front of Harpie Lady, sending Cherry Tail back. (2100 – 1500 = 600 – 300 = 300)

Sayla life points: 3900 – 300 = 3600.

"She's quick on her feet, isn't she''. Black Rose Dragon Mask said to her partner as she flapped her wings, staying in the air as her two dragons flew next to her, which she stroke Cherry Tail's chin, making her let out a cry of joy. "I guess she earned her place as Varis' right hand''. Blaze said to her partner, going into her true form and crossing her arms.

"You're right about that, but that isn't gonna keep my from losing! Come forth my Circuit!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she held up her right claw, which an Arrowhead appeared in the sky. "The conditions are two Rose Dragons, which I have enough! Blue Rose, Cherry Tail, would you be so kind''. Black Rose Dragon Mask said with a smirk as her two dragons turned into tornados, their colours representing their Attributes and going into the top and bottom Link Makers.

"I Link summon! Appear Link 2 Rose Dragon – Shrine Guardian!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as a black skin and red hair Chinese Dragon flew out of the Arrowhead, its eyes blue and two dragon hands and feet, a long tail with thorns coming out, its red hair being long, reaching from the back of its head to its tail.

(Rose Dragon – Shrine Guardian/ Link: 2/ Attribute: Fire/ ATK Points: 2000/ Type: Dragon/ Requirements: Two rose Dragon Monsters/ Effect: If a Tuner monster was used as material for this card, special summon it to this card's link maker. If a monster is summoned to this card's Link maker, both players draw one card and if the cards they drew were monster cards, both players summon them)

"If a Tuner monster was used as a Link material for Shrine Guardian, that monsters resurrects! Come back, Cheery Tail!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she held up her right hand as Cheery Tail flew out from a portal that appeared in the sky, flying behind Shrine Guardian.

Rose Dragon – Cherry Tail ATK Points: 1500/ Level: four.

"Now Shrine Guardian's second effect activates!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as the Master field appeared with Cheery Tail's card in Shrine Guardian's bottom Link Marker. "When a monster is summoned to Shrine Guardian's Link, both players draw one card and if it's a monster card, both players can special summon them'' Black explained for her partner as the top cards appeared on their duel disks were set on fire.

'An effect that works for both players, huh. Let's see what happens'. Sayla thought to herself as she and Black Rose Dragon Mask drew the top cards of the decks at the same time. "Would you look at that, I drew Cyber Harpie Lady!'' Sayla called out as an armoured version of Harpie Lady appeared, wielding a whip.

Cyber Harpie Lady ATK Points: 1800 + 200 = 2000/ Level: four.

"Not a bad draw, but nothing compared to my Rose Dragon – Cybernetic Blossoms!" Black Rose Dragon Mask called out with a smirk as a dragon that was a little smaller than Black Rose Dragon appeared. It had black skin, wings that were like a bats wings, blue eyes, cybernetic blossoms that flew from its wings, red lings around its wings, its long tail had cybernetic thorns, two talons and finally cybernetic red hair on the back of its hair.

(Rose Dragon – Cybernetic Blossoms/ Level: 7/ Attribute: Fire/ Type: Cyberse/ Effect/ ATK Points: 2500/ DEF Points: 2300/ Effects: This card is also treated as a Dragon and Plant type monster in the deck, hand, field or graveyard. You can select one card on the field, change it's effect to 'Every Rose Dragon on the field gains 300 ATK Points' till the end of your next turn. If this card would be used as Link Material for a Cyberse Rose Dragon, you can special summon this card to its Link, but its ATK points become 0000.)

"That's a Cyberse Card!'' Sayla called out in shock at what she was seeing. "Surprise, well don't be because I'm not done! How about an encore, my Circuit!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she held up her right hand as another Circuit appeared in the sky. "The conditions is one Rose Dragon, so you're up Cherry Tail!" Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as Cherry Tail turned into a red tornado that went into the left Link marker.

"I Link summon Rose Dragon – Frozen Priestess!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask as a 14-year-old female, wearing icy red priestess clothes appeared, having two icy red cybernetic dragon wings on her back, pale skin, cybernetic nails as sharp as claws, red long hair and ruby eyes.

(Rose Dragon – Frozen Priestess/ Cyberse/Effect/ Attribute: Water/ Link: 1/ Link markers: Left/ ATK Points: 500/ Requirements: One Rose Dragon/ Effects: This card counts as a Dragon and Plant type in the deck, hand, field or graveyard. If this card is used as a Link Material for 'Rose Dragon – Frozen Blue Rose', it can be used for the entire material. Once per turn, you can remove from play one spell in your graveyard and add another one to your hand)

"And just like before, Shrine Guardian's special ability activates!" Blaze reminded the two humans, who drew another card from their decks. "All right, I summon Harpie Lady 1 in ATK mode!'' Sayla called out as another version of Harpie Lady appeared, only wearing a purple outfit.

Harpie Lady 1 ATK Points: 1300 + 200 = 1500/ Level: four.

"When Harpie Lady 1 is on the field, all Wind attribute monsters gain 300 ATK Points, so my Harpies get a power up!" Sayla explained as her three Harpies were covered in a green aura, increasing their power.

Harpie Lady 1 ATK Points: 1500 + 300 = 1800.

Cyber Harpie Lady ATK Points: 2000 + 300 = 2300.

Harpie Lady ATK Points: 1500 + 300 = 1800.

"She increased her monster's ATK Points even more than before!'' Blaze called out in surprise at the move that Sayla made to increase her monster's ATK Points. "It'll be worth it for Rose Dragon – Snowy Daisy''. Black Rose Dragon Mask told her partner as Snowy Daisy appeared on the field.

Rose Dragon – Snowy Daisy ATK Points: 900/ Level: two.

"Time for my priestess to show her stuff, I activate her special ability! By discarding a spell card, like my Dragon Mirror spell card, I can add the Extreme Sword Action spell back to my hand!" Black Rose Dragon Mask explained as a card appeared in front of her, before disappearing.

"Now I activate my Cybernetic Blossom's special ability! She has the power to change your field spell's effects!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she pointed at the field spell with her right claw's index as the thorns from Cybernetic Tail grew longer and wrapped around the card.

"Your field spell now increases Rose Dragons ATK Points by 300 ATK points instead of increasing your hairless harpies by 200'' Blaze explained the effect with her arms crossed as the thorns unwrapped around the field spell, which glowed as the monsters on the field grew red auras.

Harpie Lady 1 ATK Points: 1800 – 200 = 1600.

Cyber Harpie Lady ATK Points: 2300 – 200 = 2100.

Harpie Lady ATK Points: 1800 - 1600.

Rose Dragon – Snowy Daisy ATK Points: 900 + 300 = 1200.

Rose Dragon – Frozen Priestess ATK Points: 500 + 300 = 800.

Rose Dragon – Cybernetic Blossoms ATK Points: 2500 + 300 = 2800.

Rose Dragon – Shrine Guardian ATK Points: 2000 + 300 = 2300.

"Oh boy, that's not good!'' Sayla called out in concern at Black Rose Dragon Mask's turn. "Don't worry, I'm just about done''. Black Rose Dragon Mask told her opponent as four cards reappeared in front of her. "I set two cards and end my turn!" Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as two face down cards appeared on her field.

Sayla life points: 3600/ Number of cards in hand: 0.

"To be able to summon so many monsters in one turn, you're an impressive opponent, but I'm afraid this is where the road ends for you! My turn now, I draw!'' Sayla called out as she drew her top card from her deck. "I play the spell card, Cards of Demise!'' Sayla called out as the spell card appeared below her.

"Now I draw until I have five cards, but in five turns, I lose my whole hand!'' Sayla explained her spell's effect as she drew the top five cards of her deck, before they disappeared and reappeared in front of her. "Now I overlay my three level four Harpie Lady, Harpie Lady and Cyber Harpie Lady!'' Sayla called out as she held her hands in front of her, her left hand over her right, making Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze widen their eyes in shock.

"No way, that's an…!" Blaze called out in shock at what she heard from Sayla, having thought that all she could do was Link summon. "Xyz summon!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out in shock at what she's witnessing, having never thought she would see an Xyz summon from a different opponent than her friends in this world.

A bolt of light erupted from Sayla's Duel Disk that shot behind her, conjuring an X-shaped portal with four red points at its sides.

"With these three Monsters, I build the Overlay Network!" Sayla shouted out as her three Harpies Monsters exploded into particles and entered the red points on the left and right, causing them to glow. A red circle appeared behind the X, and it fired four beams from its edges that opened a swirling galaxy portal.

The galaxy exploded after the chant, and a stream of DNA appeared before breaking apart and taking the form of her Xyz Monster. "I Xyz summon Harpie's Pet Phantasmal Dragon!'' Sayla called out as a Dragon, that looks like Harpie's Pet Dragon appeared with three green overlay units circling around it, roaring.

Harpie's Pet Phantasmal Dragon ATK Points: 2000/ Rank: four/ Overlay units: three.

Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze stared at the Xyz Dragon in shock that Sayla could use Xyz summon. "How is she able to Xyz summon!'' Blaze called out in shock that Sayla could Xyz summon this whole time. "I don't know, but this leaves questions that need to be answered''. Black Rose Dragon Mask grumbled out, wanting to know how Sayla Xyz summoned.

"Surprised, well don't be because I got a whole lot more surprises in store for you. So let the party get started with this, the power of the spell Harpie's Feather Duster!'' Sayla called out as she held out her right hand as the spell appeared in front of her hand, before a strong wind appeared. "Your spell and traps are destroyed!'' Sayla called out as Black Rose Dragon Mask's face down cards were destroyed, making Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze narrow their eyes.

"Now if you control two monsters of the same attribute, like your Shrine Guardian and Cybernetic Blossoms, I can summon this, Alector, Sovereign of Birds!'' Sayla called out as two green auras surrounded Shrine Guardian and Cybernetic Blossoms, which shot out into the sky, forming into Alector, Sovereign of Birds.

Alector, Sovereign of Birds ATK Points: 2400/ Level: six.

"Now since I haven't normal summoned yet, I'll summon Harpie Channeler!'' Sayla called out as an orange haired Harpie, wielding a staff appeared on her field.

Harpie Channeler ATK Points: 1400/ Level: four.

"I play Channeler's special ability! By discarding a Harpie, card like Harpie Queen I can summon a Harpie card from my deck in DEF mode! So, raise up Harpie's Pet Dragon!'' Sayla explained her monster's effect before raising up her right hand as a portal appeared on the ground, before Harpie's Pet Dragon flew out of it, roaring.

Harpie's Pet Dragon DEF Points: 2500/ Level: seven.

"For ever Harpie Lady on my field, my Dragon gains 300 ATK Points and Harpie Channeler counts as Harpie Lady!" Sayla explained her monster's effect as Harpie's Pet Dragon roared as it grew more powerful.

Harpie's Pet Dragon DEF Points: 2500 + 300 = 2800.

"Channeler's special ability increases her Level to 7 when there's a Dragon monster on my field''. Sayla continued to explain as a red aura covered Channeler as her level increased.

Harpie Channeler level: 4 + 3 = 7.

"Now time to battle! When Harpie's Pet Phantasmal Dragon attacks, it can attack you directly!'' Sayla explained her Xyz monster's effect, making Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze widen their eyes in surprise at this unexpected move. "I did not see this coming''. Black Rose Dragon exclaimed, having never thought an Xyz monster could attack directly.

"Go!'' Sayla called out as her Xyz Dragon unleashed a breath attack at Black Rose Dragon Mask, who used her arms to protect herself from the force of the attack, but was still sent to the ground from the attack.

Black Rose Dragon Mask life points: 4000 – 2000 = 2000.

"Next Alector, Sovereign of Birds attacks Rose Dragon – Snowy Daisy!'' Sayla called out with an evil smile as Alector charged and sliced Snowy Daisy in half, causing an explosion. (2400 – 1200 = 1200)

Black Rose Dragon Mask life points: 2000 – 1200 = 800.

"Ahh, so much pain inflected on one turn, I'll end my turn with one face down!'' Sayla called out as a face down card appeared on her field, declaring her turn over.

Black Rose Dragon Mask Life points: 800/ Number of cards in hand: two.

Black Rose Dragon Mask got back on her feet, glaring at Sayla. "My turn now, and your gonna pay for what you did! I draw!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she drew her card from her deck, which disappeared. "I activate the trap, Breakthrough Skill from the graveyard!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as a trap appeared on her field, making Sayla widen her eyes in surprise.

"A trap from the graveyard!'' Sayla called out in surprise at the unexpected move. "By removing this trap from the graveyard, your Xyz Dragon loses her effect!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask explained as a beam shot out of the trap and hitHarpie's Pet Phantasmal Dragon, covering it in a white aura.

"Way to go, now you can attack!'' Blaze called out to her partner, looking pleased that Black Rose Dragon Mask negated the Xyz Dragon's effect. "You got that right, Shrine Guardian, attack Channeler!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as her Link monster charged at Harpie Channeler, making Sayla grant her teeth.

"I wish I didn't have to…but I have no choice! I play the trap, Needle Ceiling!'' Sayla called out as her face down card reappeared on the field, before revealing itself. "Aww shit''. Black Rose Dragon Mask swore, knowing full well what that trap does. "If there's four or more monsters, all monsters are destroyed!'' Sayla explained her trap's effect as a portal appeared in the sky, which Needles rained down on all the monsters.

"Partner, save Frozen Priestess!'' Blaze told her partner to save the lowest ATK power monster on the field. "Got it, I play the quick-play spell, Forbidden Lance!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as a spell card appeared on her field. "By lowering her ATK points by 800, Frozen Priestess is saved!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask explained as a force field appeared around Frozen Priestess, protecting her while all the other monsters were destroyed.

Rose Dragon – Frozen Priestess ATK Points: 800 – 800 = 0000.

"So what your Priestess survived! It has 0000 ATK Points!'' Sayla stated with a smirk on her face, before her eyes widened as she remembered something. "In case you forgotten, I added the Action Card, Extreme Sword and I'll use it!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as the Action card appeared in front of her, which Frozen Priestess gained a white aura.

Rose Dragon – Frozen Priestess ATK Points: 0000 + 1000 = 1000.

"Go Priestess, attack Sayla directly!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out with narrowed eyes, which Frozen Priestess held her right hand in front of her face as she blew, releasing an icy cold breeze that made Sayla shiver.

Sayla life points: 3600 – 1000 = 2600.

"Well done, now things are starting to go our way''. Blaze exclaimed, pretty pleased that things are going their way now. "I'll play a face down and end my turn! At this moment, your field spell regains its effect''. Black Rose Dragon Mask declared her turn over as a face down card appeared on her field.

Rose Dragon – Frozen Priestess ATK Points: 1000 – 500 = 500.

Sayla life points: 2600/ Number of cards in hand: zero.

"I draw!'' Sayla called out as she drew her card from her deck, which disappeared from her fingers and reappeared in front of her. "I'll set a card and end my turn''. Sayla said as a face down card appeared on her field, having nothing else to do.

Black Rose Dragon Mask Life points: 800/ Number of cards in hand: one.

"I draw!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she drew her card from her deck, which disappeared with two cards reappearing in front of her. "Frozen Priestess attacks you directly again!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she pointed at Sayla, which Frozen Priestess unleashed another cold breeze at Sayla.

Sayla life points: 2600 – 500 = 2100.

"I end my turn!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask declared her turn over, having nothing else to do for this turn.

Sayla life points: 2100/ Number of cards in hand: zero.

"I draw!'' Sayla called out as she drew the top card of her deck, before it disappeared from her hands. "I summon Harpie Harpist to the field in ATK mode!'' Sayla called out as a red hair harpie monster, wielding a Harp appeared on the field.

Harpie Harpist ATK Points: 1700 + 200 = 1900/ Level: four.

"That's not good''. Blaze commented, thinking that it was bad that Sayla got to summon a monster with 1700 ATK Points. "Go Harpiest, attack that Frost witch!'' Sayla called out as she pointed at Frozen Priestess, before she flew to another Action card on a platform, grabbing it.

"Talk about lucky, I play the Action spell Double Attack!'' Sayla called out as the card she grabbed disappeared, which reappeared on the field. "This Action spell doubles my Harpie's ATK Points, so that's a total of 3400 ATK Points!'' Sayla explained the Action card's effect with a smirk as Harpie Harpist powered up.

Harpie Harpist ATK Points: 1900 X 2 = 3800.

"Oh great, it's worse''. Blaze commented again, going into her true form and crossing her arms, not sounding worried. "I've got this!" Black Rose Dragon Mask replied to her partner as she flew to another platform, grabbing the Action card as Harpist started to play her Harp. "Just what I was hoping for, the Action spell Zero Penalty!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out in joy as the card she grabbed disappeared, before it reappeared on the field.

"Now that's what I call sweet! This Action Card reduces your monster's ATK Points to Zero!'' Blaze explained the Action card's effect, pointing at Harpie Harpist as the Action card fired a beam that connected with Harpist, draining her power.

Harpie Harpist ATK Points: 3800 – 3800 = 0000.

"Oh great'' Sayla grumbled out, angry that Black Rose Dragon Mask got the Action that was perfect for her attack. "Fight back, Frozen Priestess!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as Frozen Priestess blew another frozen breath, which froze Harpie Harpist, which she shattered into pieces. (500 – 0000 = 500)

Sayla life points: 2100 – 500 = 1600.

"My spell Alluring Mirror Spirit's effect activates now! When a Harpie Lady, which Harpist counts as, is destroyed, I can summon another Harpie monster whose original name was different and I choose Harpie Dancer!'' Sayla explained her spell's effect as a white winged Harpie flew out of the continues card.

Harpie Dancer ATK Points: 1200 + 200 = 1400.

"How many of those Harpies does she have!'' Blaze called out in irritation, now wishing that Sayla had something different than a Harpie. "Apparently not''. Black Rose Dragon Mask replied to her partner as Sayla went searching for another Action card. She found another Action card and smirked at seeing what she got.

"Ha, lucky me, I got the Action Card Encore!'' Sayla called out with a smirk on her face as the Action spell disappeared from her hands, before it reappeared on the field. "This Action spell allows me to use an Action card from the graveyard like Double Attack!'' Sayla explained the Action Card's effect as Encore changed into Double Attack as Harpie Dancer was covered in a green aura.

Harpie Dancer ATK Points: 1400 X 2 = 2800.

"Sometimes I hate those Action cards''. Blaze complained, wondering why the Action Field and Action were designed for both Duellists. "Stop complaining, this way we'll have a more intense Duel''. Black Rose Dragon Mask replied to her partner, getting excited at how Sayla always has a backup plan.

"Go Dancer, dance circles around that Priestess!'' Sayla ordered an attack, which Harpie Dancer flew towards Priestess, who didn't look concerned. "If you haven't notice, your monster's in danger''. Blaze told her partner that Priestess was close to getting destroyed. "I know, but I've got this! The trap, Wall of Thorns!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as her face down card revealed itself, which thorns rose up from the ground, which Harpie Dancer smashed into, before shattering into pieces.

"What just happened!'' Sayla called out in shock at what just happened exactly. "Simple my trap Wall of Thrones destroys all your monsters when they attack a Plant type monster!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask explained to Sayla what happened exactly. "But your Frozen Priestess isn't a Plant type!" Sayla questioned on how that trap worked when Frozen Priestess was a Cyberse monster.

"That's the thing, my Priestress also counts as a Dragon and Plant type''. Black Rose Dragon Mask replied to her opponent with a smirk on her face, making Sayla growl a little. "I end my turn and since Harpiest was destroyed this turn, I can add a Winged Beast-type with 1500 or less ATK from my deck to my hand, like Harpie Girl''. Sayla declared her turn over as she added a card to her hand.

Black Rose Dragon Mask life points: 800/ Number of cards in hand: two.

"It's my move!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she drew her card from her deck, before it disappeared with three cards appearing in front of her. "This never gets old, Priestess attacks you directly again!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out with a smile as Frozen Priestess unleashed another icy breeze, making Sayla shiver.

Sayla Life points: 1600 – 500 = 1100.

"Your right, that never gets old''. Blaze chuckled at the sight of the shivering Sayla, agreeing with her partner. "For now, I'll just end my turn with a face down card''. Black Rose Dragon Mask declared her turn over as a face down card appeared on her field.

Sayla life points: 1100/ Number of cards in hand: one.

"That's it! No more Mrs Nice girl! I draw!'' Sayla shouted out as she drew her card from her deck in a dramatic fashion. The card disappeared from her hand as Sayla waved her right hand as two cards appeared in front of her, making her smirk at seeing what she drew. "This is the last turn''. Sayla said with a smirk on her face, making Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze narrow their eyes at here.

"I play the trap, Hysteric Party!'' Sayla called out as she held up her right hand as her face down card revealed itself. "By discarding the Harpie Girl from my hand, I can summon as many Harpy Lady monsters from my graveyard as I want!" Sayla explained her trap's effect as one of her cards disappeared.

"Oh oh''. Both Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze called out in concern as the trap fired a beam into the sky, creating a portal as Harpie Lady, Harpie Lady 1, Cyber Harpie Lady, Harpie Harpist and Harpie Queen flew out of.

Harpie Lady 1 ATK Points: 1300 + 200 + 1500 + 300 = 1800/ Level: four

Cyber Harpie Lady ATK Points: 1800 + 200 = 2000 + 300 = 2300/ Level: four.

Harpie Lady ATK Points: 1300 + 200 = 1500 + 300 = 1800/ Level: four.

Harpie Harpist ATK Points 1700 + 200 = 1900 + 300 = 2200/ Level: four.

Harpie Queen ATK Points: 1900 + 200 = 2100 + 300 = 2400/ Level: four.

"Something tells me that we should have stayed in bed''. Blaze exclaimed, now wishing that both herself and her partner stayed in bed. "That makes two of us''. Black Rose Dragon Mask said in agreement to what her partner said.

"If your think that this is the best I got, your wrong, big time! Come forth my Circuit!" Sayla called out as she held up her right hand as an Arrowhead appeared in the sky. "The conditions are 1Wind normal monster! I set Harpie Lady on the Link marker!'' Sayla called out as Harpie Lady turned into a green tornado that went into the bottom Link marker, which glowed red.

"Take flight Harpie Valkyrie!'' Sayla called out as a new monster flew out of the Arrowhead. Like Harpie Lady, she had long hair, only green hair, Harpie claws, wings and feet. She wore green Valkyrie armour that showed her stomach, a Valkyrie helmet and a blue cape.

(Haripe Valkyrie/ Type: Winged-Beast/ Link/ Link Markers: Down/ ATK Points: 1500/ Requirements: One Normal Wind monster/ Attribute: Wind/ Effects: This card is always treated as 'Harpie Lady'. Monsters that this card points to cannot be destroyed by battle. If this card points to a Link monster, this card cannot be selected for an Attack)

"Nice Valkyrie ya got there''. Black Rose Dragon Mask commented with a smirk as she crossed her arms. "But she has only 1500 ATK Points''. Blaze commented as well as she crossed her arms, taking notice that the new Link monster only has 1500 ATK points. "Think again, forgot about my field spell and Harpie Lady Number 1''. Sayla reminded them all about her field spell and monster as Harpie Valkyrie powered up.

Haripe Valkyrie ATK Points: 1500 + 200 = 1700 + 300 = 2000.

"Now my field spell's effect! Your face down goes bye-bye!'' Sayla called out as a feather storm appeared around Black Rose Dragon Mask's face down card, destroying it. Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze didn't even flinch at the destruction. "Now, for me to stop with the very card that Varis gave me and I won't let him down''. Sayla said with narrowed eyes, getting Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze to narrow their eyes.

"Appear, the Circuit that connects me and Varis!'' Sayla called out as she held up her right hand as an Arrowhead appeared in the sky. "The conditions are three Effect monsters! I use all my four Harpies for the summon!'' Sayla called out as her four remaining Harpies turned into four green tornadoes that went into left, right, bottom left and bottom right link markers that glow red.

"I Link summon! Link 4! Borreload Dragon!'' Sayla called out with a wide smile, making Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze widen their eyes in surprise as Varis' ace Dragon flew out of the Arrowhead, roaring at Black Rose Dragon Mask and Blaze.

Borreload Dragon ATK Points: 3000/ Link: four.

"I did not see that coming''. Blaze commented with wide eyes, having never expected Borreload Dragon to make an appearance in this duel. "Varis must have gave it to her!'' Black Dragon Mask called out in surprise, thinking that Varis gave her his Borreload Dragon. "I activate Borreload's ability! Now your priestess loses 500 ATK Points!'' Sayla explained Borreload's special ability as Frozen Priestess powered down.

Rose Dragon – Frozen Priestess ATK Points: 500 – 500 = 0000.

"You might want to do something''. Blaze told her partner, knowing if they get hit, game over for them. "Already on it. I play the Trap, Trap Trick from my graveyard!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as a portal appeared on her field, before a trap card flew out showing the image of a pinkish purple man with a mask and a cape, along with a magician's hat.

(Trap Trick/ Type: Trap/ Effect: By removing this card from the field or graveyard, you can select a trap in your graveyard and activate it)

"By removing this trap from play, we can activate a trap card from our deck''. Blaze explained the trap's effect as a card appeared in front of Black Rose Dragon Mask. "And the trap I choose is Threantening Roar!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as the trap appeared on the field, making Sayla narrow her eyes. "I end my turn''. Sayla declared her turn over, having nothing else to do.

Black Rose Dragon Mask life points: 800/ Number of cards in hand: two.

"I checked her Harpie's special ability and t keeps itself from being attacked and protects Borreload Dragon from being destroyed by battle''. Blaze informed her partner about Harpie Valkyrie's special ability. "That's troublesome, but it makes sense. Its almost like Harpie Valkyrie is Sayla and Borreload is Varis. Sayla protects Varis and Varis protects her''. Black Rose Dragon Mask said to her partner, thinking about how these two monsters are like Sayla and Varis.

"Indeed, but we can't let stop us. Too much is at stake''. Blaze told her partner as she went into her true form, reminding her about what's at stake. "I know, that's why I won't fail. I draw!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she drew her card from her deck, which disappeared and three cards appeared in front of her.

"There's only one card that can win this thing for us''. Blaze said to her partner, knowing that they only have one monster that can help them out. "I know, we have everything we need to win this on this turn. But Blaze, remember the day we met''. Black Rose Dragon Mask said to her partner with a smile as she remember the day she came to this world.

"Of course, I remember it like it was yesterday''. Blaze replied to her partner with a smile as she thought back to the day she met her partner.


(Flashback)

In Den city's Garden house, Rose was enjoying her time of peace in a garden filled with roses. But she was not alone. She is with a female humanoid digital being called an Ignis, an AI with free will that was attached to her old Duel Disk that she had on.

The two are enjoying their time together in the garden, with Rose walking around the garden. "It's been a while since I enjoyed walking around in a garden filled with roses". Rose exclaimed with a smile as she stopped to look at a Blue Rose.

"A rose is a beautiful thing. I'm glad you like them as much as I do''. The Ignis said in agreement to what Rose said. "So, can you tell me about yourself". Rose asked the Ignis if she could tell her about herself.

"Very well. My name is Blaze. I'm actually an Ignis, an AI made with free will". The Eye form of Blaze said to Rose, which was a Red Dragon eye. "Your just like those things those masked guys have in Link Vrains". Rose said to herself, remembering when she saw White Dragon Mask on a screen.

"Those masked Duellists are actually your friends, with White Dragon Mask's real identity being your brother''. Blaze told Rose that the masked duellists are her friends, getting Rose to widen her eyes in surprise. "Satoshi is White Dragon Mask!" Rose called out in surprise that her brother now duels as a masked duellist.

"Ding ding, you win a prize. Also with your brother is an Ignis like me called Azure…my brother''. Blaze said to Rose, making her widen her eyes that Blaze had a brother like her. "Just like me and Satoshi. Satoshi is my brother and this 'Azure' is your brother". Rose said in surprise, which Blaze nodded to her.

"Listen, I know that we haven't known each other for long, but I need your help''. Blaze asked Rose for her help, getting Rose confused. "Why would you need my help?'' Rose replied to Blaze in confusion. "A group known as the Knights of Hanoi are trying to wipe out our kind and destroy our hope. That's why I need your power to defeat the Knights of Hanoi''. Blaze explained to Rose about what she needs from him.

"Why would they want to destroy your kind. You didn't do anything to them, did you''. Rose asked Blaze on why the Knights of Hanoi want to destroy the Ignis. "We didn't. We were living our lives in peace when they attacked with me, my friends, brother and niece were taken away from our home. Please become my ally and help defend my family''. Blaze begged Rose to help her, desperate to protect her friends and family.

Rose thinks for a moment and comes to a decision. "I'll help you on one condition. We're not allies, but rather we're partners. I believe that we can eventually to understand each other, Blaze". Rose explained to Blaze that she wants to be partners, not Allies, making Blaze widen her eye, before she looked happy. "I accept…partner''. Blaze said to Rose, looking very happy, making Rose smile at her.

(Flashback end)


"We've come a long way since than, haven't we''. Black Rose Dragon Mask said with a smile on her face from remembering her first day in this world. "You can say that again, but this isn't where the road ends for us''. Blaze said with a happy expression on her face.

"Your right, so let's let this Harpie have it!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out with a smirk on her face. "HHHHHHHAAAAAAA!" Black Rose Dragon Mask cried out as she spread her wings out, which a blizzard storm appeared from nowhere from behind her, making Sayla widen her eyes in surprise.

"What the!'' Sayla called out in surprise as Black Rose Dragon Mask's outfit changed colours from rosy red to a rosy blue colour. "Appear, my Frozen Circuit!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as she held up her right hand as an Arrowhead appeared in the sky above her.

"For this special link summon, Frozen Priestess counts as 4 monsters!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask explained as Frozen Priestess turned into four blue tornadoes that went into the top-right, top-left, bottom-left and bottom-right, which glowed red.

"I Link summon! Link 4! Rose Dragon – Frozen Blue Rose!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as a tornado came out of the arrowhead, slamming into the ground In the middle of the bridge, before disappearing to reveal the new monster.

It's a pure white Dragon with silver white scales almost resembling ice crystals, blue eyes, almost translucent wings, silver Cybernetic armour that covered the Dragon, only showing its wings, white underbelly, scales on its back and eyes. Frozen Blue roses rained down from its wings as well. The new Dragon unleashed a mighty roar at Borreload Dragon.

(Rose Dragon – Frozen Blue Rose/ Link: 4/ ATK Points: 2700/ Attribute: Water/ Type: Cyberse/ Effect/ Requirements: 3 or more Rose Dragon monsters/ Link markers: Top-Right, Top-left, bottom-left and bottom right/ Effect: This card is also treated as a Dragon and Plant type on the field or graveyard. Once per turn, you can negate all cards your opponent controls. They cannot activate spells, traps or monster effects in response to this effect. If your opponent Link summons, you can select one monster in your extra deck and summon it to this monster's Link)

"Am I supposed to be intimidated by that thing''. Sayla asked, as Frozen Blue Rose did not intimidate her; consider its ATK Points are low. "In a few seconds you will! First, I play the spell, Rose Revival!'' Black Rose Dragon called out as a spell card materialized on her field, the image showing a blooming rose on a sunny day.

(Rose Revival/ Type: Spell/ Effect: Target one 'Rose Dragon' or Plant type monster in your graveyard, special summon it to your field)

"This spell brings back my Rose Dragon – Cybernetic Blossoms''. Black Rose Dragon Mask explained, as a portal appeared in front of her, before Rose Dragon – Cybernetic Blossoms flew out of it, roaring.

Rose Dragon – Cybernetic Blossoms ATK Points: 2500/ Level: 7.

"Now I play Frozen Blue Rose's special ability! All your cards' special abilities don't work anymore!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask explained as her Frozen Dragon unleashed a blizzard howl at Sayla's field, cancelling out all her cards.

Haripe Valkyrie ATK Points: 1700 – 200 = 1500.

"You may have negated my monster's effects, but none of your monsters are strong enough to defeat Borreload''. Sayla said as she tried to keep her cool. "That may be true, but with this, it's over! The spell Dragon Heart!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as her spell card materialized on her field.

"With this spell, by sending three Dragons from our deck to the graveyard, one Dragon on our field gains 1000 ATK Points''. Blaze explained her partner's spell for her as three cards appeared in front of Black Rose Dragon Mask. "I send White Rose Dragon, Red Rose Dragon and Rose Dragon – Snowy Daisy to the graveyard to increase Frozen Blue Rose ATK Points''. Black Rose Dragon said as the three cards disappeared and Frozen Blue Rose powered up.

Rose Dragon – Frozen Blue Rose ATK Points: 2700 + 1000 = 3700.

"Impossible''. Saya whispered in shock as she looked at Frozen Blue Rose in horror. "Ypu were a great opponent, but I must go on to save my world, but I hope we meet again someday''. Black Rise Dragon Mask said to Sayla sadly, having liked duelling her.

"Go Frozen Blue Rose and Cybernetic Blossoms! Attack and end this!" Black Rose Dragon Mask called out as both her Dragons attack. Frozen Blue Rose attacked Borreload Dragon and Cybernetic Blossoms attacked Harpie Valkryie, destroying the two monsters. (3700 – 3000 = 700) (2500 – 1500 = 1000)

Sayla life points: 1100 – 700 + 1000 = 1700 = 0000.

Black Rose Dragon Mask's Dragons, along with the Action field and Action cards disappeared as Sayla turned red. "I'm sorry Varis. I…only wished…I could have seen you one more time''. Sayla said to herself with a sad smile as she disappeared from view.

"She fought with all her might for Varis. By why?'' Blaze said in confusion, wondering why Sayla risked so much for Varis. "Because…she loved him''. Black Rose Dragon Mask told her partner, seeing how Sayla cared for Varis after seeing how she duelled form him.

Blaze looked at her partner, but before she could say anything, the bride started shaking with the suspender cables snapping, making the two partners widen their eyes in shock. "The Bridge!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out in alarm that the bride was breaking.

"The shockwaves from the Duel must have been to much! Hurry, before the bridge collapse!'' Blaze told her partner, getting a nod from her as Black Rose Dragon Mask began running towards the other sides. However, one of the suspender cables began to fall towards her, making her widen her eyes in horror.

Right before the cable smashed her, a purple blur appeared and saved her by grabbing her and taking flight. Black Rose Dragon Mask looked at her saviour and let out a happy smile. "Lulu!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out in happiness, which Purple Night, who had her arms under her shoulders smiled at her.

"Thank goodness I made it in time''. Purple Night said with a smile of relief that she saved her friend on time as Black Rose Dragon Mask spread her wings and took flight with her. "You okay, Blaze!'' Raven called out in concern as both her and Blaze revealed their true forms.

"I'm fine, thanks for the save''. Blaze replied to her friend with a happy expression on her face, making Raven close her eyes in happiness. "Where's everyone else?'' Black Rose Dragon Mask asked Raven if she knows where everyone else is. "White Dragon Mask and Azure went on ahead of us and we haven't seen any of the others yet''. Purple Night replied to Black Rose Dragon Mask, having no idea where the others are.

"Playmaker, Music Singer, Green Witch, Ai, Yuna and Wendy went on ahead of us, so they should be closer to the tower''. Blaze called out as she crossed her arms, thinking about how the others went on ahead. "Maybe the others have made it to the tower''. Raven said in concern for the others, especially Azure and their daughter.

"Well, what are we waiting for! Last one there's a rotten egg! Hahaha!'' Black Rose Dragon Mask called out with a smile as she dashed ahead of Purple Night, making her gasp in surprise, before she smiled. "You're on!'' Purple Night called out as she chased after her friend, with both Ignis cheering their partners on as they flew towards the tower.
