Hello my readers! The wait is over, the Duel with the Mizar and Kite Tag Team is here! Now, I would like to make a disclaimer note. I created the deck Quinton rightfully deserves, Deep Space, based off of space ships like the Deep Space Cruiser IX used in the anime. Now the disclaimer comes in since I realized that Nox Descious, creator of the Zexal story The Ice Queen Cometh, who I've had some… plagiarism issues with in the past, and he has a deck for Quinton, or V since he uses the Jap names, with the same name. Now THIS Deep Space is COMPLETELY different from the one Nox has, AND I spoke with him, via PM, and he's cool with my own Deep Space deck. Now read and enjoy this chapter!


Chapter 17: Dragon Duo

Augmented Reality Vision Online

Quinton: 4000

Quattro: 4000

Kite: 4000

Mizar: 4000

"Let's Duel!" All four of them said as they drew their hands.

"I'll go first. I draw!" Quinton drew his card which was a picture of a satellite station in the middle of space. "I think this space is too small for our Duel. So I'll put is somewhere a little more infinite with the Field Spell Satellite Station!" The building transformed into a satellite station with several satellite wings on the side, and the sky transformed into the deep void of space with a sun in the distance and everyone was standing on top of the station. "Next I summon Deep Space Explorer IV!" A wormhole opened and a rocket like monster with blue energy flowing through it, pulse it had three spinning blades on the back.

Deep Space Explorer IV: Level 4/LIGHT/Machine/1000 Atk/400 Def

"Now, since I have a Deep Space monster on my field, I can summon Deep Space Planet Observer VI as long as I slice its attack points in half." Another wormhole opened and a larger rocket with three eyes on the bottom moving around, looking at everything, and it that three strands of blue energy came out and in the middle there was a ring around it with six energy spikes on it.

Deep Space Planet Observer VI: Level 6/LIGHT/Machine/600 Atk (Originally 1200)/600 Def

"Now I activate the special ability of my Deep Space Explorer IV! I can use it to Fusion Summon without the need of Polymerization as long both it and the other fusion materials are on the field." The two machines were sucked into a spiral vortex.

"I FUSION SUMMON DEEP SPACE PLANET DESTROYER VIII!"

A large wormhole opened from the vortex and a large machine with eight arms on the sides that had eight spinning blades and had a rather large satellite dish with blue energy flowing through it, and a mechanical eye in the center.

Deep Space Planet Destroyer VIII: Level 8/LIGHT/Machine/Fusion/2700 Atk/1600 Def

"A Fusion Summon?" Kite said, though he shouldn't be surprised as Chris, or rather Quinton was quit skilled.

"Yes. And now the effect of Satellite Station activates! Since a Machine type monster was Special Summoned from an Extra Deck, no matter if it's from mine, my opponent's, or teammates Extra Deck, a Satellite I Token is Summoned to my field in defense mode." A hatch opened in front of Quinton and a small satellite with blue energy flowing through it like all the other monsters Quinton summoned.

Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"I now place two cards face down and end my turn." Quinton said as he ended his turn.

"Alright. Now I draw!" Kite said. He had to be careful since Quinton knew all about his Galaxy Eyes, especially his ability to banish himself in any battle and return afterwards, meaning his Galaxy Eyes's only weakness was card effects. "Alright. Since I don't have any other monsters on the field, I can Summon Photon Thrasher!" The large sword welding monster thrashed its way on the field.

Photon Thrasher: Level 4/LIGHT/Warrior/2100 Atk/0 Def

"And now I summon Galaxy Protector!" A warrior like monster with blue knowing flowing through its white suit and silver shield stood on the field.

Galaxy Protector: Level 4/LIGHT/Warrior/1500 Atk/1000 Def

'Interesting. He can summon his Galaxy Eyes by tributing two monsters with 2000 or more Attack Points, but that second monster has only 1500. Unless…" Quinton thought.

"I Overlay Level 4 Photon Thrasher and Galaxy Protector!" The two monsters turned to light and flew into the air and into a red portal.

"I XYZ SUMMON STARLIEGE PHOTON BLAST DRAGON!"

From the red portal a large grey dragon with solid blue scale like wings, silver and gold arm and leg bands, chest plate, custom helmet and armored tail. Its red eyes glowed as it roared, revealing its mouth being a deep blue mouth as two yellow Overlay Units circled it.

Starliege Photon Blast Dragon: Rank 4/LIGHT/Dragon/1800 Atk/2500 Def

"My Blast Dragon's ability activates! Since it was successfully Xyz Summoned, I get to summon one Photon monster from my hand!" A card glowed in Kite's hand. "I Summon Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon!" His signature Dragon roared as he glowed with light in the field.

Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon: Level 8/LIGHT/Dragon/3000 Atk/2500 Def

"Best part is the Blast Dragon's other ability prevents all my monsters with 2000 or more Attack Points can't be destroyed or even targeted by your card effect.

'Clever. I know his Galaxy Eyes battle ability, and with that Blast Dragon's own ability his Galaxy Eyes is untouchable.' Mizar thought.

"I end my turn with two face down cards." Kite set his two card down.

"Then I draw!" Quattro said. 'The ability of that Xyz Monster makes it imposable to do anything to that Galaxy Eyes.' Quattro thought. 'And he most likely has some way of protecting that Blast Dragon against destruction.' "So I'll just have to take it." He said to himself. "I summon Gimmick Puppet Humpty Dumpty!" A dark red doll with a whit formal jacket, blue dress pants, and orange hat appeared on the field.

Gimmick Puppet Humpty Dumpty: Level 4/DARK/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"And thanks to it I can summon another Gimmick Puppet from my hand! I summon Gimmick Puppet Scissor Arms!" His monster was a purple faceless monster with leather bindings and its blade arms were binded above its head, giving the appearance of scissors.

Gimmick Puppet Scissor Arms: Level 4/DARK/Machine/1200 Atk/600 Def

"Now I Overlay Level 4 Gimmick Puppet Humpty Dumpty and Scissor Arms!" The two DARK monsters disappeared into the red Overlay portal.

"I XYZ SUMMON GIMMICK PUPPET GIGANTES DOLL!"

The monster that emerged was something out of a horror movie. It looked like a humanoid made up of a bunch of mannequin dolls, its right arm was a scythe that was the same as Twilight Joker, and right above it was a piece of Gear Changer, on its left shoulder was Scissor Arms blades, and finally its head was Humpty Dumpty's head.

Gimmick Puppet Gigantes Doll: Rank 4/DARK/Machine/0 Atk/2000 Def

"Repulsive." Mizar responded.

"It's not the prettiest monster, but it has a couple of powerful abilities. But the best part is that by summoning Gigantes Doll another Satellite I Token is added to Quinton's field." As Quattro said this another hatch opened and a second Satellite I Token rose up.

Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"Now, by using two Overlay Units my Gimmick Puppet Gigantes Doll can take control of up to two monster my opponent controls!" His monster absorbed both its Overlay Units.

"It takes control of them?!" Kite said and Quattro's monster blasted Blast Dragon with red strings that pulled it over to his side.

Quattro chuckled. "With it off your field your Galaxy Eyes is no longer protected. But I won't be keeping this Dragon because I activate Puppet Setup!" His spell card showed Gimmick Puppet Giant Killer being sent to the Graveyard and its two Overlay Units being turned into two Gimmick Puppet Monsters. "I sacrifice Blast Dragon to summon Gimmick Puppet Humpty Dumpty and Scissor Arms back from the Graveyard!" Blast Dragon went into the Graveyard portal but its Overlay Units went into two separate smaller portals, then Gimmick Puppet Scissor Arms and Humpty Dumpty rose from them. "And now I activate Gimmick Puppet Gigantes Doll's other ability! By destroying it all my monsters become Level 8!" Quattro's giant monster destroyed itself and then the two remaining monsters' Level Stars appeared and doubled, becoming Level 8.

Humpty Dumpty: Level 8

Scissor Arms: Level 8

Quattro picked up the two monster cards from his Dpad and smiled as his Crest glowed on his hand. "I once again Overlay Gimmick Puppet Humpty Dumpty and Scissor Arms!" The two monsters this time disappeared in the golden Number portal.

"I XYZ SUMMON NUMBER 15: GIMMICK PUPPET GIANT KILLER!"

The sealed form of the Number unfolded and formed into a giant puppet with strings attached to it and the monster had a cold and sinister stair.

Number 15 Gimmick Puppet Giant Killer: Rank 8/DARK/Machine/1500 Atk/2500 Def

"A Number." Kite said, eager to take it.

Then a third hatch opened and a third satellite flew into the airless sky.

Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"I'm not done just yet. I play Gimmick Shield! This card switches Giant Killer's Attack and Defense Points." Quattro threw his card into the air and his monster powered up.

Giant Killer: 2500 Atk/1500 Def

"And, also one of you takes 300 points of damage per Overlay Units during each of my turns!" Giant Killer's purple Overlay Units stopped moving. "And unlucky winner number one is… Kite!" Quattro pointed at Kite and bolts of light shot from the Overlay Units and hit Kite, dealing him damage.

Kite: 4000 – 600 = 3400

Quattro reached for a card, then the second one in his hand. "I place two cards face down and end my turn." Quattro emptied his hand as he ended his turn.

"Then I draw!" Mizar drew his card. "You two are seriously going to regret dragging me into this! I summon Cave Dragon!" The Dragon that came out was a green scaly monster on top and a dry bark like underside.

Cave Dragon: Level 4/WIND/Dragon/2000 Atk/100 Def

"Next I play the spell Galaxy Burst! By giving up the right to attack this turn I can summon another monster from my hand. I summon Bright Star Dragon!" The dragon was dark blue with bone white and bone like armor.

Bright Star Dragon: Level 4/LIGHT/Dragon/1900 Atk/1000 Def

"I Overlay Cave Dragon and Bright Star Dragon! With these two monsters, I can build the Overlay Network!" The wind and light dragons turned to elements and vanished into the red portal.

"I XYZ SUMMON GALAXY STELTH DRAGON!"

The monster that rose up out of the portal was a black dragon with gold claws and large pink wings. It gave a mighty roar on the battle field.

Galaxy Stealth Dragon: Rank 4/DARK/Dragon/2000 Atk/1600 Def

"Now I activate Galaxy Stealth Dragon's special ability! By using an Overlay Unit, I can summon one Dragon monster from my hand! But why stop at one when I can use both!" Mizar's monster absorbed both Overlay Units into its head gem.

"I summon Tyrant Dragon and Darkstorm Dragon!" The first monster was a classic grey and dark red dragon while the second one was not so classic. It was a black dragon with large spots in its wings and its entire lower half was a raging storm.

Tyrant Dragon: Level 8/FIRE/Dragon/2900 Atk/2500 Def

Darkstorm Dragon: Level 8/FIRE/Dragon/Gemini/2700 Atk/2500 Def

"Next I play Gift of the Dragon King!" Mizar's final card was a picture of a large serpentine like dragon guarding a treasure chest. "Since I have less than two card in my hand I get to draw one card for every Dragon on the field!" A yellow aura formed around all three of Mizar's dragons and Kite's Galaxy Eyes. Then the auras flew into the air and converged into a dragon like energy stream. The stream then went into Mizar's Deck. "Since I have three Dragons and Kite has one, I get to draw four cards!" Mizar drew his cards. "I place one card face down and activate the spell Dragon's Curse!" His continuous spell revealed a red dragon being corrupted by darkness and destroying its surroundings. "Now every time one of you destroys one of my dragons you take damage equal to their Level or Rank time 200! Now I end my turn." 'I can't risk summoning my Galaxy Eyes just yet. While my Number would make quick work of them, I can't risk summoning him outside of a Sphere Field for too long.' Mizar thought.

Quinton smiled. "Nice strategy. But mine is better!" He began his turn. "Now I forfeit my Draw Phase to activate Planet Destroyer VIII's special ability! By doing so I get to destroy one card on the field, and if it's a monster card, you take damage equal to said monster's Attack Points!" As Quinton said this the blades on his monster's sides were spinning rapidly, charging with energy and the eye glowed. "And the card I'm targeting is Galaxy Eyes!" Quinton pointed at Kite's beloved dragon. "GO PLANETARY DESTRUCTION!" The eye then blasted a high energy laser at the dragon.

"Not so fast! I activate the special ability of Galaxy Protector in my Graveyard! Since you're targeting my Galaxy-Eyes I can banish this monster and negate the effect!" Kite said as the warrior rose out of the Graveyard and expanded its shield to protect the dragon behind it.

Quinton chuckled. "As sharp as ever Kite. But don't forget, I taught you all those quick tricks." He said.

Mizar was shocked. "Hang on, was this guy your Dueling instructor?" Mizar asked.

"Oh Quinton was fare from just an instructor. Right Kite?" Quattro taunted.

Kite groaned. "Yeah, Quinton, or rather Christopher as I knew him, was like the older brother, or rather the father, I never had."

"Oh you have a father! And he's the cause of all this! Dr. Faker is the one who tore our family apart and we intend to repay the favor!" Quattro said.

"If we could continue I play the spell Satellite Spawn!" The spell showed two satellites being forged from scrapes of a larger machine. "I destroy my Planet Destroyer VIII to spawn two more Satellite I Tokens!" Quinton's monster then self-destructed and some scraps came together and formed two satellites.

(X2) Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"Now I activate the effect of my Satellite Station! I can Tribute any number of my Satellite I Tokens and draw a card for each one, so I sacrifice all five of mine!" All five of his Satellites went into one big hatch, then a bright light came out and hit his deck which caused his cards to glow and then Quinton drew the five cards. "Now I summon Deep Space Rocket VII!" A wormhole opened and a large white rocket with large side wings that had blue energy.

Deep Space Rocket VII: Level 7/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk (Originally 1700)/200 Def

"I can Special Summon this card if I have no monsters and reduce its Attack Points to 0. Now I Normal Summon Deep Space Rover II." A small wormhole opened and a six wheeled white rover with a blue energy screen.

Deep Space Rover II: Level 2/LIGHT/Machine/200 Atk/0 Def

"And when this card is Normal Summoned I can combine its Level with another Deep Space Monster as long as the monster's Level is less than 8." Rover II then pointed its satellite at Rocket VII and blasted light at Rocket VII, then it glowed and the light bounced back onto Rover II.

Rover II: Level 9

Rocket VII: Level 9

Mizar gasped. "Two Level 9 monster?! The means-"

Quinton threw his hand into the air. "I Overlay my Level 9 Deep Space Rover II and Rocket VII!" The two space machine monsters turned to light, but instead if going into an Overlay Network the two monsters went deep into space and then the Xyz portal explosion happened.

"I XYZ SUMMON FROM THE DEEPEST REACHES OF SPACE, NUMBER 9: DYSON SPHERE!"

From behind the star in the space a metal machine began to unfold. Five enormous solar panels unfolded around that were attached to a chrome disk that was also attached to a gold dish that surrounded the star with a purple 9 on the side. Then asteroids began to be pulled in by the immense gravity creating an asteroid belt as well as three silver spheres with a red eye center also orbited the monumental machine. It then made a humming noise as it drew power from its star and the panels light up with orange lights and blue lights in the chrome disk as well as the giant cone on the back. It was without a doubt the biggest monster in the history of the universe!

Number 9 Dyson Sphere: Rank 9/LIGHT/Machine/2800 Atk/3000 Def

As everyone was looking up at the new monster another Satellite I Token was added to Quinton's field.

Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"That this colossal!" Mizar exclaimed, who was also a little frightened. The first and last digit Numbers were extremely powerful and shouldn't be under estimated ever.

Kite was speechless. The monster in front of his was beyond giant, but he couldn't show fear as he needed to stay strong for his brother.

"Now then, you may have noticed that my Dyson Sphere has less Attack Point than Galaxy Eyes, so you feel confident that I can't attack?" Quinton guessed. "But see Dyson Sphere does have less Attack Points I can use its special ability! By using an Overlay Unit my Dyson Sphere can attack you directly!"

"'Directly'?!" Kite said.

"That's right!" Quinton threw his hand in the air and an Overlay Unit went into the star, causing it to light up vigorously, powering up Dyson Sphere. "GO BRILLIANT BOMBARDMENT!" His monster's panels glowed and shot thousands of light lasers at Kite, sending him flying.

Kite: 3400 – 2800 = 600

"Next I play the trap Satellite Protection!" The card's artwork was a simple shield surrounding two satellites. "You all obviously think that my Satellite I Tokens are vulnerable to attacks, but so long as I have Dyson Sphere on my field my Satellite I Tokens are untouchable! Now I end my turn." Quinton then ended his turn.

Kite groaned as he stood up. "I'll admit that's impressive. But I will defeat you! Draw!" Kite drew his card and groaned loudly. His arm still hurt earlier from when that girl Eclipsa did to him. "Galaxy Eyes, attack Dyson Sphere! PHOTON STREAM OF DESTRUCTION!" His dragon glowed and shot a blast of light at Dyson Sphere.

Quinton smiled. "I activate Dyson Sphere's other special ability!"

"Say what?" Kite said.

"When Dyson Sphere is attacked while it has Overlay Units that attack is negated!" A shield formed in front of his massive monster and dispersed the light blast.

'Hmm. An ability to perform direct attacks and a shield ability both it one monster. But It can only keep the shield if it doesn't direct attack twice, but for most Duelists two direct attacks from that monster would end the Duel. So as long as one can survive two attacks Dyson Sphere is vulnerable to destruction, and yet I sense that isn't as simple as it sounds.' Mizar thought.

"Fine. But I now play Photon Assault!" The spell showed Photon Thrasher on the ground after an attack and a ghost like form above it ready to fight again. "I knew you knew try to negate my Galaxy Eyes's attack, so when that happens this card allows my Photon Dragon to attack twice! This time I'm going for Gimmick Puppet Giant Killer! And now I banish both monster!" Both Photon Dragon and Giant Killer vanished from the field. "Now that the battle is over both our monsters return to the field!" Both monsters reappeared on the battle field. "And since your Giant Killer was banished it lost its equip spell and Overlay Units, and now my Galaxy Eyes gain 500 Attack Points for each Overlay Unit it lost!"

Giant Killer: 1500 Atk/2500 Def

Galaxy Eyes Atk: 3000 + 2X 500 = 4000

"With that I end my turn with a face down." Kite set down his final card.

"Then it's my turn! I must say you're Dueling skills are just as impressive as Quinton said. But mine are better! Before I Draw I'll play the trap Puppet Preparation!" Quattro's trap pictured five random card being held up by puppet strings. "Since I control a Gimmick Puppet Xyz Monster and have no cards in my hand, I can Draw six cards instead of one!" Quattro did just that and drew a new hand. When he saw one of the cards he smiled. "You two sure are lucky. Most of my opponents don't make it long enough for me to even draw this card." Quattro reached for a card in his hand. "I activate Rank Up Magic Argent Chaos Force!" Quattro held his hard high into the air, the card revealing a shield with Tron's Crest in the center plus his and his two brothers' Crests on it.

"These humans have a Rank Up Magic card of their own?!" Mizar said in disbelief.

"This card Ranks Up my Number into a Chaos Number! I Overlay my Rank 8 Gimmick Puppet Giant Killer!" Quattro's monster turned to DARK attribute energy and went into the golden Number portal once again and Quattro's Crest glowed vigorously in response to the card.

"GO CHAOS XYZ EVOLUTION! COME FORTH CHAOS NUMBER 15: GIMMICK PUPPET SERIAL KILLER!"

A large silver crate fell from the sky and then opened up to reveal the horror with in. The box unfolded to become the wings of the golden mechanical monster, which was stringless and had red chaos energy flowing through it, especially the face which was truly the face of a killer.

Number C15 Gimmick Puppet Serial Killer: Rank 9/DARK/Machine/2500 Atk/1500 Def

Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"A Chaos Number?" Kite said. He was unfamiliar with this form of monster and could tell something bad was about to happen.

"I activate the effect of my Serial Killer! By using one Overlay Unit my Serial Killer gets to destroy one card on the field and if it was a monster then the player controlling that monster takes damage equal to that monster's attack points! But I won't attack a monster and destroy the spell card Dragon's Curse! SEEK AND DESTROY!" Quattro's monster's chest opened up and a saw flew out and sliced Mizar's spell to pieces.

"Oh no!" Mizar exclaimed.

"And my turn is just beginning! I play Attack Gimmick! With this my Serial Killer gains 500 Attack Points and when it destroys a monster in battle, you take damage equal to the destroyed monster's Attack Points!" Quattro's monster then powered up.

Serial Killer Atk: 2500 + 500 = 3000

"NOW GO! GENOCIDE GATLING BURST!" Serial Killer's mouth opened and a gun came out and showered Stealth Dragon with bullets until there was nothing left and as some of the bullets hit Mizar the really hurt, as though they were real.

Mizar: 4000 – 1000 – 2000 = 1000

"You'll regret that!" Mizar said as he stood up.

"The only one with regret is you for showing up! I play Card of Puppets! Now I destroy my Serial Killer!" Quattro's monster self-destructed.

"Why did you just destroy your own monster like that?!" Mizar said.

"Because I get to draw one card." Quattro drew his card. "Now I activate the special ability of my Gimmick Puppet Bisque Doll! Since it is in my hand I can send one other Gimmick Puppet to the Graveyard to Special Summon it to the field! I send my Gimmick Puppet Necro Doll to the Graveyard and bring out my Gimmick Puppet Bisque Doll!" On the field rose a creepy porcelain in a funeral dress and black veil, its hair was red and had a creak on the side of its face plus its facial expression was said, as if it really was at a funeral.

Gimmick Puppet Bisque Doll: Level 8/DARK/Machine/1000 Atk/1000 Def

"Now I banish Gimmick Puppet Humpty Dumpty to activate Necro Doll's effect, which allows it to return to the field!" The Graveyard portal opened and a black coffin rose out of it and then the lid slide off. The doll inside was porcelain, blonde and wore a pick dress but had bandages with stains underneath, as if in an accident, as if it was whose funeral Bisque Doll was attending.

Gimmick Puppet Necro Doll: Level 8/DARK/Machine/0 Atk/0 Def

Quattro held the two card in his hand as his Crest glowed. "Now I Overlay my Level 8 Gimmick Puppet Bisque Doll and Necro Doll!" The doll duo turned to dark energy. "With these two monsters I build the Overlay Network!" The two monsters vanished into the golden Number portal.

"I XYZ SUMMON NUMBER 40: GIMMICK PUPPET HEAVEN'S STRINGS!"

From the portal rose Quattro's second Number, the mechanical Number who plays the music of Death himself.

Number 40 Gimmick Puppet Heaven's Strings: Rank 8/DARK/Machine/3000 Atk/2000 Def

Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"So you summoned a slightly more powerful Number, so what?" Kite said.

"Only slightly?! Big talk for someone who's about to lose! I play Heaven's Strings' ability! By using an Overlay Unit my Heaven's Strings plays the song of your doom! MELODY OF MAYHEM!" Quattro's monster absorbed an Overlay Unit and began playing the strings on its body. "At the end of the next turn all monsters with these String Counters will be destroyed and the owners of the monsters will take damage equal those monster's Attack Points!"

"But that will destroy your own partner's monster as well!" Mizar said.

"Wrong! I play the trap Number Wall!" Quinton's trap flipped over. "This trap prevents any Numbers on my field from being destroyed by any spells, traps, and even special abilities! Meaning when Quattro's Heaven's Strings' ability kicks in next turn my Dyson Sphere is spared!" As Quinton said this dozens of strings came falling from the sky and attaching themselves to Kite's Galaxy Eyes and Mizar's two dragons.

"I activate the trap Galaxy Sacrifice!" Kite's trap showed a galaxy being sucked into a black hole. "This card banishes my Galaxy Eyes, meaning that it won't be affected by the String Counter, and it also lets me draw one card!" Kite drew his card.

"Fine. You might be safe but Mizar's not. I place a card face down and end my turn." Quattro's turn ended.

"Then I draw! I start my turn by Overlaying my Level 8 Darkstorm Dragon and Tyrant Dragon!" The two monsters vanished into the red Overlay Network.

"I XYZ SUMMON GALAXY KING DRAGON!"

The portal exploded and a large wingless white Chinese style dragon flew out. The dragon had yellow eyes and claws and a sphere with a galaxy in it in the center of its forehead, that combined with its white horns made it look like a crown.

Galaxy King Dragon: Rank 8/LIGHT/Dragon/2700 Atk/2500 Def

"Now with my two Dragons converted into Overlay Units the String Counters are gone, meaning none of us take damage from Heaven's Strings. Now Galaxy Dragon King will use one Overlay Unit to activate it special ability! Now when I attack your monster it is automatically destroyed, and on the turn my Galaxy King Dragon loses an Overlay Unit, it can't be destroyed by battle nor do I take and battle damage! Now attack Gimmick Puppet Heaven's Strings! GALACTIC FURRY!" His dragon flew down and right through Heaven's Strings, causing it to explode. "One down." Mizar said with a smile, but it quickly disappeared when he saw Quattro received no damage. "What's the meaning of this?"

Quattro smiled as the smoke cleared and one of his face downs was activated. It was a picture of Argent Chaos Force in the Graveyard surrounded by Chaos energy and that energy engulfing an Xyz Monster as it was passing through the Graveyard portal. "Simple I activated the trap Chaos Graveyard. Since my Xyz Monster was destroyed, I take no damage in response to it. And the best part is that by banishing a Rank Up Magic card from my Graveyard I can apply its effects to my Heaven's Strings!"

"What?! You're going to Chaos Xyz from the Graveyard?!" Mizar exclaimed.

'He's really pushing it with all these Numbers.' Quinton thought.

"I rebuild the Overlay Network with my Rank 9 Heaven's Strings!" The Grave portal opened and Heaven's Strings flew into the Overlay Network once more and Quattro's Crest glowed vigorously again and he winced in pain.

"GO CHAOS XYZ EVOLUTION! I BRING OUT CHAOS NUMBER 40: GIMMICK PUPPET DEVIL'S STRINGS!"

The name Devil fit the monster perfectly as the monster looked like it was made in Hell. It had w large mechanical body with strings on one of its legs as well as its side, and chaos energy flowed throughout is body and two large claw wings with one wing wider and the number 40 on it. It no longer had a single blade but a double edge sword, its face's sides appeared to me silver jaws and teeth and had a large red eye that had a slit in the center.

Number C40 Gimmick Puppet Devil's Strings: Rank 9/DARK/Machine/3300 Atk/2000 Def

Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"And my Devil's Strings has the same ability to put a String Counter on every other monster, and it can also destroy them on the same turn. So on my next turn your both doomed. That is of course if Kite survives Quinton's turn." Quattro said.

"I'll admit that was impressive performing a Chaos Xyz on your opponent's turn. But I can tell it takes a toll on your body." Mizar said, seeing Quattro had struggled when summoning that second Chaos Number, he then took a card from is hand. "I place a card face down and end my turn." Since it was the end of the next turn the two Satellite I Tokens that had String Counters were destroyed, but with no Attack Points no damage was done to Quinton.

"Then it's my turn! I draw!" Quinton drew his card.

'Kite better have a plan. As much as I have to even think this, I need his support in this Duel. If I had a Cubed Sphere Field I could win in an instant, but without it and the cards that these two possess, I do need some assistance.' Mizar thought.

"Finish this Dyson Sphere! GO BRILLIANT BOMBARDMENT!" Quinton ordered his Number.

"No so fast! I play the trap Xyz Reborn! This trap revives my Starliege Photon Blast Dragon!" Kite said as his trap flipped up. The Grave portal opened and Kite's dragon rose with a fierce roar.

Starliege Photon Blast Dragon: Rank 4/LIGHT/Dragon/1800 Atk/2500 Def

"And the best part is that Xyz Reborn becomes Blast Dragon's Overlay Unit!" Kite said as the trap turned into a yellow Overlay Unit that circled Blast Dragon. "And since it doesn't have more attack points Dyson Sphere can't go around t and in defense mode I will take no damage!" Kite said.

"Maybe but your monster is still destroyed!" Quinton said as his monster blasted lights at Kite's Dragon.

"But before that I activate Blast Dragon's ability! I can unbanish my Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon!" Kite's monster at an Overlay Unit and spewed light on the ground and the green portal opened and Galaxy Eyes rose up right before Blast Dragon was destroyed.

Galaxy Eyes: 3000 Atk/2500 Def

"Bringing back you Dragon so easily, impressive, yet expected. I place one card face down and end my turn." Quinton placed his card face down.

"Now I draw!" Kite winced and then saw the card he drew. This was it, the card that would allow him victory. But he had to choose between either Dyson Sphere and Devil's Strings. He then looked at Mizar who looked back at him. Mizar then looked down at his face down card and at Quattro's Number, meaning it would handle it, at least that's what he hope it meant. "Time to defeat the mother of all mega monsters! I play the spell Overlay Break!" His spell card manifested on the field. "This card gets rid of all of Dyson Sphere's Overlay Units!" Light arrows flew out of the card and destroyed Dyson Sphere's last Overlay Units. "Without its Overlay Units it can't defend itself and Overlay Break's other effect cancels its Number ability this turn, allowing my Galaxy Eyes to destroy it!"

'That's quite the card he has. I'm gonna have to keep it in mind when I take him out myself.' Mizar thought.

"GO GALAXY EYES! DESTROY NUMBER 9 WITH PHOTON STREAM OF DESTRUCTION!" Kite yelled as his light dragon glowed and blasted Dyson Sphere with a beam of light.

Quinton smiled as his tattoo glowed. "I activate another one of Dyson Sphere's special abilities."

"Say what?!" Kite exclaimed.

"If Dyson Sphere is attacked while it has no Overlay Units, then I can take two monsters in my Graveyard and use them as Overlay Units!" The Grave portal opened and two yellow Overlay Units flew out and then orbited Dyson Sphere. "And with its Overlay Units back your Dragon's attack is negated!" A shield formed and deflected the attack.

'Incredible. That monster has the ability of direct attack, attack negation, and can regain Overlay Units! Any one of these abilities would make a monster difficult to defeat, but all three in one monster… I only have one card that can beat it, I just hope I'm able to summon it.' Mizar thought.

"Argh!" Kite said. The then reached for a card in his hand, then grabbed two cards. "I place two cards face down and end my turn." Kite set his two cards down.

"Then I draw!" Quattro said. "Now I'll use my Devil's Strings' ability and win this Duel!"

Mizar then held out his hand. "I would hold off on declaring that victory! I activate the spell Xyz Gift Exchange!" The card showed two Xyz Monsters sending and Overlay Unit to the Graveyard and two cards rising out of them. "This card detaches an Overlay Unit from your monster and mine and we both get to draw one card!" Both Devil's Strings and Galaxy King Dragon's final Overlay Units were sent into a Grave portal on each of their fields, then a lightning bolt that hit the opposite Duelists' deck and both of them drew a card.

"Fine. I'll just play the card Big Damage!" A large mallet manifested on the field. "With this spell any play who receives battle damage this turn receives an extra 1000 battle damage! Now Devil's Strings destroy Galaxy King Dragon! SATAN STRIKE!" Devil's Strings then threw its sword at Mizar's Dragon, then there was an explosion and then the mallet flew into the air and rushed towards Mizar, who only smiled. When the mallet reached him a shield formed around him and destroyed the mallet. "WHAT?!" Quattro said.

"See, when Galaxy King Dragon lost its last Overlay Unit, its special ability kicked in. On the turn it loses and Overlay Unit it can't be destroyed in battle nor do I take any battle damage, meaning that spell of yours did no effect." Mizar then chuckled. "You know, I first thought you were brave for summoning two Chaos Numbers, but going after this Dr. Faker… Attacking him through his children, that's just cowardice. You two are nothing more than cowards!" Mizar yelled, hoping it would strike a nerve and throw him off.

"A coward?!" Quattro yelled.

(Flashback)

It was a dark and rainy night and a young Quattro was sitting in an ambulance with a patch over the half his face with some blood spots bleeding through the padding.

Quattro: After our father disappeared me and my brothers were split up and I was placed in an awful group home where the Foster Dad beat us for sport. It was a year before I finally spoke up and called the cops on him.

In a police car driving away a large man was sitting in the back seat giving Quattro the evil eye.

Quattro: And when he learned I called the cops on him… he left a mark that I made me realize all courage has a price.

(Flashback)

Quattro was touching his scar with his hand. "I paid a price for my courage…" His Crest then then glowed vigorously as did his Duel Tattoo. "SO YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO CALL ME A COWARD!" Quattro then pulled a card out of his hand. "I play the spell Overlay Draw!" The spell's artwork revealed two Overlay Units swirling a random card. "This card targets the Xyz Monster with the most Overlay Units and I get to draw one card for each Overlay Unit it has! The one with the most Dyson Sphere and it has two, means I get to draw two cards!" Quattro drew his two cards. "Now I banish Gimmick Puppet Scissor Arms from my Graveyard to return Gimmick Puppet Necro Doll to my field!" The Grave portal opened and the coffin doll from the grave once more. "Now I tribute Gimmick Puppet Devil's Strings!" His monster turned to dust. "Now I can bring out Gimmick Puppet Nightmare!" A large monster made of puppet bodies with the eyes covered, as if to protect it from see something horrible.

Gimmick Puppet Nightmare: Level 8/DARK/Machine/1000 Atk/2000 Def

"But this nightmare is twice as scary, since it counts as two monster when I Xyz Summon!" His Nightmare then split into two identical monsters. "I Overlay my two Level 8 Gimmick Puppet Nightmares and Gimmick Puppet Necro Doll!" The three monsters disappeared into the golden Overlay Network. "You have entered the lion's den, now it's time to meet it!" Quattro then pulled a card out and his Crest appeared in front of his face and it expanded until it faded.

"I XYZ SUMMON THE MOST MONSTER WHO CONTROL'S THE STRINGS OF DESTINY! ARISE NUMBER 88: GIMMICK PUPPET DESTINY LEO!"

A column of fire erupted from behind Quattro, then it parted and a majestic anthromorphic white lion dressed in armor with a blue 88 on the shoulder plate and red and white robs. His monster sat on a golden thrown and a large sword in its hand with a green gem in the center of it.

Number 88 Gimmick Puppet Destiny Leo: Rank 8/DARK/Machine/3200 Atk/2300 Def

Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def

"Another Number?!" Kite said with shock and annoyance.

"I activate my Destiny Leo's ability! Once per turn I can remove one Overlay Unit from Destiny Leo, and when it runs out of them, I WIN!" Quattro said as his monster absorbed an Overlay Unit into the gem in the sword, then stood up putting both hands on the sword.

"You win… as in an Automatic Victory?!" Mizar yelled. He couldn't believe this, literally a hand full of cards have Automatic Victories, and he was facing on that is a Number.

"That's right, and there's nothing any of you two can do about it! I end my turn with one card face down!" Quattro placed his card and ended his turn. "This is the start of both your ends." He said with a sinister/satisfying smile.

'This is seriously bad. Both Girag and Alito lost all their Numbers Crest bearers, so if I lose this Duel, I could lose everything. I have no choice, I just hope absorbing the Barian energy in the air is enough to do what needs to be done.' Mizar thought. He then lifted his fist into the air and yelled as he absorbed the loose Barian energy.

In the room where the Ritual was happening Trey saw something happening to the massive amount of energy in the air.

"What's happening?" Trey said as he saw streams of energy leaving the energy mass and going into the direction where the Duel was.

In the Duel Mizar's chest gem was absorbing the Barian energy until he developed an aura of Barian power.

"What the Hell is happening?!" Quattro yelled.

"I don't know, but this just got interesting." Quinton said.

Mizar was as charged as he could be with Barian power, just enough to play his strategy. "You said we entered the lion's den have now met it. While I admit your Destiny Leo is strong, but it is no match for the True Galaxy Eyes Master! I DRAW!" Mizar drew his card.
