Last chapter had some turns didn't it? Now just because Quattro has Destiny Leo out doesn't mean his victory is secure, ironically in the anime Leo has that automatic victory but it never takes, like now! Also, three-year anniversary of this story! Three years and 18 chapters… what a mile stone.

Mizar: 1000 Life points
Quinton's Field:
Number 9 Dyson Sphere: Rank 9/LIGHT/Machine/2800 Atk/3000 Def
(X2) Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def
Spell/Trap Zone: Number Wall, Satellite Protection, One Card Face Down

Spell/Trap Zone: 2 Face Downs
Kite's Field:
Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon: Level 8/LIGHT/Dragon/3000 Atk/2500 Def
Spell/Trap Zone: 2 Face Downs
Mizar's Field:
Galaxy King Dragon: Rank 8/LIGHT/Dragon/2700 Atk/2500 Def
No cards Face Down
Mizar's Turn:
"I DRAW!" Mizar drew his card. "First off I summon Heliosphere Dragon!" On Mizar's field a unique looking dragon that sort of looking like a kite with a head screeched on the battle field.
Heliosphere Dragon: Level 4/LIGHT/Dragon/0 Atk/1900 Def
"And since at least one of you controls an Xyz Monster, I can not only bring out Radius the Half Moon Dragon, but I can also bring it out as a Level 8 monster!" A skinny blue dragon with white half circle shields, alluding to its 'Half Moon' name.
Radius the Half Moon Dragon: Level 8 (Originally Level 4)/LIGHT/Dragon/1400 Atk/1200 Def
"And now I activate Heliosphere's ability! While it lacks attack points, it has some powerful abilities! One of which if it's my only monster you can't attack, and its other is when I have a Level 8 Dragon on my field its Level also becomes 8! Guess which one I'm using." Mizar said with a smile while Quattro's face turned sour.
Heliosphere: Level 8
The aura around Mizar's body intensified. "Now I Overlay Radius the Half Moon Dragon with Heliosphere Dragon!" The two monsters turned to pure light. "With these two monsters I build the Overlay Network!" The golden Number portal opened up.
"I XYZ SUMMON THE MIGHTIEST OF ALL DRAGONS! THE MONSTER THAT CAN BEND TIME TO ITS WILL! I CALL NUMBER 107! GALAXY EYES TACHYON DRAGON!"
An upside down black pyramid appeared on the field. It unfolded into the terrifying dragon the Kite faced before, and it gave a loud and terrifying roar that shock both Destiny Leo and Dyson Sphere. Tachyon Dragon then gave a slight head turn to its Photon counterpart.
Number 107 Galaxy Eyes Tachyon Dragon: Rank 8/LIGHT/Dragon/3000 Atk/2500 Def
"A Number over 100?! But there's only supposed to be a hundred Numbers!" Quattro said with confusion and anger.
"There was 100 Astral Numbers yes. That means that this Number hails from Barian World, the Chaos counter part of Astral World, meaning that this fellow is a Barian." Quinton said, then hummed. "If we bring Tron not only Kite's Number, but this Barian Number as well. He'll reward both of us heavily!" Quinton said with glee.
"If you think I'll let you take my Galaxy Eyes away you are sadly mistaken!" Mizar announced. "First I activate my Galaxy King Dragon's ability!" His monster absorbed its last Overlay Unit into its head sphere. "Next I'll have Tachyon Dragon attack Dyson Sphere! GO TACHYON SPIRAL OF DESTRUCTION!" His dragon formed a ball of energy and blasted Number 9.
"Fool! Did you forget about Dyson Sphere's shield?! Your dragon's attack is useless!" Quinton said as his monster sent out waves that disrupted the attack.
Mizar smiled. "Oh far from it! I activate my Tachyon Dragon's ability! When an opponent's monster activates an ability during battle I can use one Overlay Unit to negate the effect of every other monster on the field! GO TACHYON TRANSMIGRATION!" His monster reverted back into its pyramid form and engulfed the rainbow light and Barian Glyphs that drained power from Dyson Sphere and sent Destiny Leo on its knees and hand, and Photon Dragon lost all of its light and Mizar's own King Dragon's sphere lost its galaxy appearance and became black. "And the best part is that for every effect used this battle my Tachyon Dragon gains 1000 Attack Points! So arise anew Galaxy Eyes Tachyon Dragon!" His dragon unfolded from its black pyramid form back to its dragon form.
Tachyon Dragon Atk: 3000 + 1000 = 4000 Atk
With Dyson Sphere powered down a huge shadow was cast over the Duelists. "Oh and I forgot to mention that Tachyon Dragon can attack once again! And since my Galaxy King Dragon's special ability was activated earlier this turn I can still us its ability to take out one of your Numbers and use my Tachyon Dragon to finish the other!" Mizar said.
But Quinton smiled. "Interesting, but totally useless." He said as his tattoo glowed. "I activate the Trap Xyz Drain!" The flipped trap revealed an image of two monsters having their energy drained by a monster trapped in a crystal. "This trap targets one of your Xyz Monsters and drains it of its special abilities and restores up to two other Xyz Monsters whose special abilities are negated!" His trap glowed and blasted Tachyon Dragon with blue energy that drained it of its power.
"Galaxy Eyes!" Mizar yelled as his powerful dragon was drained of all its light and the aura transferred to Destiny Leo and Dyson Sphere, restoring them to full power.
"Hm. Now my Destiny Leo's ability is back, which spells doom for you!" Quattro smirked as his anthro lion rose up off the ground.
Mizar growled. "even without his special abilities, Tachyon Dragon is still a Number and is powerful enough to destroy your pathetic lion! GO TACHYON SPIRAL OF DESTRUCTION!" His dragon created a large spiral of energy and was about to blast it at Destiny Leo.
Quattro laughed. "Ha! Ha! Ha! I activate Curtain Closing!" The trap revealed a Gimmick Puppet monster with red strings attached on stage, with the curtains closing and a large pair of scissors about to cut the strings. "This trap negates an attack on my Gimmick Puppet!" A large red curtain closed around Tachyon Dragon, then a pair of scissors appeared above him and cut midair and Tachyon Dragon fell to the ground, like a puppet whose strings were cut. And when the curtain opened up there was a set card on his field.
"Hand on, he only had one face down." Mizar said. "So why is there another one?!"
Quattro smiled. "Curtain Closing also allows me to place a card face down on the field, however I can't be flipped over until the end turn, and if it gets flipped over before then, then it gets destroyed."
Mizar growled at the fact that even with his Tachyon Dragon he can't inflict even a single point of damage! "I end my turn with one card face down." Mizar set his card down on the field.
Tachyon Dragon Atk: 4000 – 1000 = 3000
"Now I draw!" Quinton said. "And now to use the effect of my Satellite Station! I tribute both my Satellite I Tokens to draw two additional cards!" The two mini satellites disappeared into the base below and Quinton drew his additional cards. "And now I play Solar Gravity!" The spell showed a picture of an intense sun. "This equip spell adds 1000 attack points to my Dyson Sphere, but it negates its special abilities." A large stream of energy emerged from the card and went into the star in the monster's center, increasing its brightness and causing a shift in gravity.
Dyson Sphere Atk: 2800 + 1000 = 3800
"Why would he do that? He could use his monster's ability to attack us directly and defeat one of us without sacrificing him monster's abilities." Mizar thought, then he saw the expression on Kite's face.
"You understand why I'm doing this, don't you Kite." Quinton said. "Defeating you isn't enough. I want the satisfaction of personally destroying your precious Galaxy Eyes." Quinton lifted his hand in the air. "Dyson Sphere destroy Galaxy Eyes and wipe out his remaining Life Points! BRILLIANT BOMBARDMENT!" His monster then sent thousands of light blasts at Galaxy Eyes.
"Not happening Quinton! I activate my trap Battle Simulation! This trap halves our monster's Attack Points and neither can be destroyed in battle!" Kite said as his trap sent out shock waves that thinned the beams of light and shielded Galaxy Eyes.
Dyson Sphere Atk: 3800 X 1/2 = 1900
Photon Dragon Atk: 3000 X 1/2 = 1500
"Your monster might be safe from destruction but you still suffer damage!" Quinton said as Kite was hit with his monster's attack.
Kite: 600 – 400 = 200
Kite was thrown back on his back and groaned in pain. "That your best move…Chris…"
Quinton frowned. "It's 'Quinton'. I end my turn." He said.
Dyson Sphere Atk: 3800
Photon Dragon Atk: 3000
Kite the stood up. "Then it's my turn, I draw!" Kite drew his card and yelled as his arm was in pain.
"Master KITE! Orbital 7 yelled. He did a quick scan of Kite's body. "Oh this is bad." Orbital said. "Two attack from that monster out be bad enough, but he's already injured from when Eclipsa paralyzed him earlier, and the stress of the Duel is agitating it!"
"Argh. I play the spell Photon Draw! I discard one Photon monster and get to draw two cards! I discard Photon Assassin and now draw two cards!" Kite drew his additional card and winced in pain. "And now Photon Assassin's effect kicks in! When it's sent to the Graveyard as the result of a Photon card I can destroy 1 monster on the field!" The Grave portal opened and a female warrior with armor that had blue light flowing through it and a gun on its shoulders. The gun than quadrupled in length and was collecting energy at the end and pointed at Destiny Leo.
Photon Assassin: Level 5/LIGHT/Warrior/2000 Atk/0 Def
"Hold up! I play Shade of Strings! This puts an end to that Assassin's ability!" Quattro said as a spiral of red strings came out of the card and around the gun, slicing through it like cheese and causing it to explode. "Better luck next turn. Oh wait, you won't get one after I use Destiny Leo's ability to win this Duel!" Quattro said enthusiastically.
"Mizar, you better have a way to fix this or we're both screwed." Kite said as he placed a card face down.
"He can't do anything to help you! Nobody can! I DRAW!" Quattro drew his card high in the air. "Now my Destiny Leo will but an end to this pathetic excuse for a Duel! You two are skilled I'll give you that much, but you didn't even touch our Life Points!" Quattro pulled a devilish smile. "Destiny Leo!"
"I activate a trap card! OVERLAY AWARD!" Mizar yelled, then his face down flipped over. "This card was given to me be a dear friend of mine! It takes an Overlay unit form my Xyz Monster and gives it to yours!"
"WHAT?!" Quattro yelled in disbelief, but believed it as the yellow Overlay Unit from Tachyon Dragon was pulled over to his monster as it turned purple to match his monster's Attribute.
"I don't believe it. There are cards that allow an Xyz Monster to steal another's Overlay Unit, but to give one up…" Quinton said. "And now Quattro's Destiny Leo can't use its ability right now."
"Oh, and the best part is when I successfully use my Overlay Award
"You… You'll pay for this!" Quattro yelled. "I use Destiny Leo's ability to get rid of its old Overlay Unit to leave it with just one!" His monster absorbed an Overlay Unit through its sword. "Now I play Gimmick Greed!" The spell pictured a man stealing puppet dolls from a case. "I banish all four of my Gimmick Puppet Xyz Monsters to draw four cards!" He drew his card quite aggressively. "First I summon Gimmick Puppet Crash Doll!" A large mechanical doll that looked like a red and white crash test dummy with a football helmet that had a mouth piece that look like the teeth on a bear trap.
Gimmick Puppet Crash Doll: Level 4/DARK/Machine/0 Atk/0 Def
"Crash Doll has a very special ability! Not only do I take no battle damage, but all attacks will be diverted to it and final once per turn it can't be destroyed by battle!" Quattro said. "I place two cards face down and activate the spell Doll Case!" The spell showed Gimmick Puppet Dreary Doll and Bisque Doll in a collector's case. "As long as I have two or more Gimmick Puppets they can't be destroyed by card effect! I end my turn."
"You're not fooling around. And neither am I, I draw!" Mizar drew his card and smiled. "I play another Gift of the Dragon King!" The familiar picture of a large serpentine like dragon guarding a treasure chest glowed on the field. "Now I draw three cards!" Mizar drew his three cards, and smiled again when he saw what one of them was. "I play Emperors' Assault!" The spell played was of seven people all pointing in a direction, and behind each of them as a monster, some of which looked very similar to Giant Hand, Tachyon Dragon, Glorious Halo, and Comet Cestus. "This card is linked to my special Over One Hundred Number! The difference in its Overlay Units from when it was summoned and now, I get to destroy once card on the field for each!"
"What?!" Quinton and Quattro yelled.
"That's right. First I'll destroy that Number Wall trap!" Mizar said as three spears of light flew out and destroyed Quinton's trap. "And now to destroy Dyson Sphere!" His card sent out three light spears again and these ones hit the silver spheres surrounding Dyson Sphere. This caused them to explode and caused a chain reaction that caused massive explosions in the massive monster. "As you humans say, the bigger they are, the harder they fall!"
Quinton chuckled. "You're a lot like Kite, and I'm not saying that just because you both use Galaxy Eyes. You both have similar playing styles too. Which is why I can easily counter your moves!" Quinton smiled. "I activate the second part of my Solar Gravity spell! I can banish it from my Graveyard to return Dyson Sphere to the field!" The Graveyard portal opened and glitter like sparks flew out and into the debris field and the pieces fused back together, repairing the monster, but its sun center was dimmed. "However, Dyson Sphere does lose 1000 Attack Points, but it does regain its special abilities."
Dyson Sphere: 1800 Atk/3000 Def
"Hmm. An impress counter move, by it won't matter in the outcome! I activate the final effect of Emperors' Assault! When my Over One Hundred Number has no Overlay Units I can banish this card to add a Rank Up Magic card to my hand!" A card glowed and slide out from Mizar's deck and then pulled it out. "I'm taking and activating Rank Up Magic Barian's Force!" Mizar held his glowing card up high in the air.
"Oh man, he's gonna his Number like last time!" kite thought. "And that ended badly for him last time.
Mizar groaned. Summoning his Galaxy Eyes Tachyon Dragon in this condition was defiantly causing wear on his human form, and the result of summoning his Chaos Number at this point would be not only foolish but dangerous. "I use this car to Rank Up my Galaxy King Dragon into a Chaos Xyz Monster! I Overlay my Rank 8 Galaxy King Dragon!" His monster turned to pure chaos and went straight into the Chaos Network.
"GO CHAOS XYZ EVOLUTION! IS SUMMON CHAOS XYZ GALAXY EMPEROR DRAGON!"
A large red Chinese dragon flew onto the field with large strands of Chaos running down its sides. It had larger horns and four fang that were hanging on the outside of its mouth and its head pearl was full of Chaos, and a silver coated Chaos Overlay Unit in front of it.
Cxyz Galaxy Emperor Dragon: Rank 9/LIGHT/Dragon/3400 Atk/2600 Def
"In case you two didn't know, Chaos Xyz Monsters can destroy Numbers in battle." Mizar said.
"So what? You have to get through my Crash Doll first, and Dyson Sphere's abilities are back, so you can't do much!" Quattro said.
"Hmm. I activate Emperor Dragon's ability! At the price of a Chaos Overlay Unit all my Dragons can attack twice this turn! However, any battle damage is negated." Mizar said, the smiled. "Galaxy Eyes Tachyon Dragon, destroy that Crash Doll with TACHYON SPIRAL OF DESTRUCTION!" His monster blasted Crash Doll, who wasn't destroyed, but there was defiant wear and tear to it, like it was tested on in a crash.
"That won't be enough." Quattro said, the smirked, hiding something up his sleeve.
"No, but an attack from Emperor Dragon will finish it! GO GALACTIC RAGE!" The pearl on his monster's head glowed and blasted Crash Doll, destroying it. "Now to get rid of your lion!"
"Oh it's not that simple." Quattro said. "I activate the trap Repair Puppet! Since my Crash Doll was Level 4, I can summon another one directly from my deck!" Another crash test dummy identical to the one before appeared on the field.
Crash Doll: 0 Atk/0 Def
"Argh. Then I'll wipe out that doll like I did the last one!" Mizar said as his Emperor Dragon blasted the new Crash Doll. "An now Tachyon Dragon, destroy this Crash Doll! GO TACHYON SPIRAL OF DESTRUCTION!" His monster's attack was heading towards Quattro's monster, who only smiled.
"I activate my Scrape Iron Scarecrow trap! It can negate any attack!" His trap flipped open, and created a shield that blocked the attack. "And the best part about this trap is that it flips back down after its used, allowing me to use it again later." Quattro said as his card flipped back down.
"Hmm. I place a card face down and end my turn." Mizar placed his card face down. "And now my Emperor Dragon's seconded ability kicks in! At the end of every turn, if it has no Overlay Units it takes one from the Graveyard!" Mizar said as the Grave opened and a Chaos Overlay Unit flew out and placed itself in front of Emperor Dragon.
"It does that at the end of every turn?!" Quinton said with worry. "That means-"
"It means that during each of our turn he can use the Award card to not only keep us from attacking, but keep my Destiny Leo from activating its ability!" Quattro yelled.
Quinton growled. "Not if I can help it! I draw!" He drew his card.
"I activate Overlay Award!" Mizar said as his card glowed.
"Not so fast! I play the quick-play spell Mystical Space Typhoon! This will destroy your card before it can activate!" When Quinton played his spell a large wind storm blow that destroyed Mizar's trap.
"Oh no!" Mizar yelled, without his trap he and Kite were doomed if Kite didn't turn things around.
"Now that's out of the way…" Quinton reached for another card in his hand and his tattoo glowed. "I activate Rank Up Magic Argent Chaos Force!" Quinton held his card up, which glowed, as did his Crest. "This card will Rank Up my Dyson Sphere into a Chaos Number! I Overlay Rank 9 Dyson Sphere!" His monster turned to LIGHT Attribute and vanished deep into space. Then an explosion happened that shook the station.
"RISE CHAOS NUMBER 9: CHAOS DYSON SPHERE!"
Behind Quinton and Quattro, a dark machine rose behind them. A star then glowed in the center and five large jagged panels glowed and each had a large vein of chaos running through it. Behind and between each of the jagged panels was a purple pointed panel that smoothed to a point, and behind the large monster was a LONG dark purple poll with spikes, and at the end of it was a sphere with even bigger spikes. Between the center sphere and a large purple ring of energy were 9 dark gray disks, 4 large ones, 4 small disks, and one medium disk. THEN another Satellite I Token appeared on the field.
CHAOS NUMBER 9 CHAOS DYSON SPHERE: Rank 10/DARK/Machine/3600 Atk/3200 Def
Satellite I Token: Level 1/LIGHT/Machine/0 Atk/100 Def
Kite and Mizar were in awe as they saw the even bigger and scarier monster, which had a purple Overlay Unit orbiting it.
"This is the most powerful Number than any of you have ever faced. First any monster that battles it can instantly be turned in an Overlay unit. Then once a turn I can deal 500 points of damage for each Overlay Unit it has." Quinton informed
"It can do that?!" Mizar yelled.
"Yes and more. Because in the same turn I can detach any amount of Overlay Units from it and deal you 800 points of damage for each one!" Quinton said.
"Shit that's a lot of damage." Kite said.
"After I destroy your Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon I'll use Chaos Dyson Sphere to wipe out Mizar's Life Points! Go Chaos Dyson Sphere! Destroy Kite's precious Galaxy Eyes with BOMBARDMENT OVERKILL!" Quinton ordered his Chaos Number. His monster's star glowed with dark energy, as did the 9 disks, then small balls of light formed in the jagged panels. Then all disks and star blasted their energy at Photon Dragon as did the panel lights.
Kite watch helplessly as his Galaxy Eyes was utterly destroyed and the blasts were heading towards him. "I activate a trap; Mirror Shine!" The trap showed a Duelist in a protective light bubble, protecting him from an attack. "I sacrifice half my Life Points and take no damage from attacks!" A shield of light formed around Kite that protected him from most of the blasts, except at the end and Kite was sent flying and landed on face first on the ground.
Kite: 200 X 1/2 = 100
"As stubborn as ever Kite. No matter, I'll just use Chaos Dyson Sphere's ability to wipe out your remaining 100 Life Points." Quinton stated.
"That won't work…" Kite strained to say as she struggled to stand. "Since my Life Points are under 500, I take no effect damage either…"
"Fine. Then I'll just wipe out Mizar's!" Quinton said. "GO DYSON SPHERE!" His monster's disks and star glowed again and blasted towards Mizar.
"I activate the trap Damage Alteration! This continuous trap negates your monster's damage!" His trap created a shield that protected him from the damage. "And then I get to summon one monster from my deck whose Attack Points are equal to the damage I would have taken." A card glowed in his deck. "I summon Guardragon Promineses!" On his field rose a dark red flaming dragon with a yellow gem in its chest.
Guardragon Promineses: Level 1/FIRE/Dragon/500 Atk/200 Def
"Clever trap. I place one card face down and end my turn." Quinton said. "But really, what's the point? Kite only has 100 Life Points left, no monsters, and Quattro's Destiny Leo will put an end to this Duel."
Kite groaned as he put his hand on the top of his deck. "I…" Kite then fell down.
"Master Kite!" Orbital yelled.
Kite laid on the floor, weak, and uttered one word. "Hart…"
That word echoed into the ear of his brother. "Kite!" Hart said as his eyes shot open, he was still tied up. "Kite… He needs my help!" Hart clenched his fists and yelled. Then the strands attached to him snapped and sent an electric shock to both Hart and Tron, who yelled in pain, and he stopped receiving power from Hart. The large energy cloud then glowed and blasted itself out of the room.
"What the Hell?!" Trey yelled as he saw this happening and his father in pain. He the summoned his Crest power and shut the field down, releasing Tron from the bindings, and both he and Hart passed out and fell gently on the ground. "Where did Hart's power go?"
Back in the Duel a red light twinkled in the colorless sky and it hit Kite with a blast of red energy.
"What's happening?!" Quinton yelled as he covered his face from the light, as did everyone else.
"This power… Could it be?" Mizar said.
Within the light a figure rose up within it. "He's up?!" Quattro yelled as the light faded and Kite was seen standing up.
Kite was cloaked in red aura and his white coat turned red. "Master Kite…" Orbital said in awe.
Kite look at his hands and clinched them. "Hart…Thank you." Kite said, he then reached for his deck and drew a card. "I draw! And to start off, since I have no monsters on my field I activate Big Bang Waves!" The trap showed a large white explosion with three waves, the furthest had spells and traps caught up in it, and the closest two had monster cards in them.
"Wait, is that one of your card's Quinton?!" Quattro yelled.
"Yes… It was, long ago." Quinton said.
(Flashback)
A young Kite was send back into a wall from an attack. "Dang it!" He said. "That's the third time today!"
A younger Quinton walked up to Kite and held his hand out and lifted Kite up. "You just need the right cards, like this one." He handed Kite a card, it was Big Bang Waves.
"But this is your card." Kite said.
"I want you to have it. It can be a real game changer." Quinton said.
Kite smiled. "You know I'm gonna use this card, and it's be the reason I beat you one day."
Quinton smiled back. "I look forward to that."
(Flashback)
"I told you one day this card would lead to your defeat! Now time to activate Big Bang Waves effects!" A large white wave flew from the card and expanded out, and it dissolved Quinton's and Quattro's spells and traps instantly on contact. "First I destroy all your spells and traps." Then a second emerged and sliced right through Quinton's Satellite I Token and Quattro's Crash Doll, then the remains exploded. "Next it destroys all your monsters whose Level is equal to or lower than the amount of spells and traps destroyed." Then a third wave flew out, only instead of going in Quattro and Quinton's direction, it went in Kite's and his deck glowed. "And lastly, I get to add one monster to my hand whose Level is equal to or less than the amount of spells and traps destroyed." He then pulled out one card from his deck. "I choose Level 4 Galaxy Wizard. Now Big Bang Waves prevents me from Normal Summoning it, but by playing Photon Lead I can special summon it!" Kite did just that. His monster appeared out of a cloud of smoke, and the monster was in white robes and large hat, a black cape, and a golden rod.
Galaxy Wizard: Level 4/LIGHT/Spellcaster/0 Atk/1800 Def
"And now I use Galaxy Wizard's ability to increase its Level by four!" Four Level star appeared in front of Galaxy Wizard and four more stars came out from under them, making its Level 8.
Galaxy Wizard: Level 8
"And since I have a Galaxy monster I can summon Galaxy Knight without Tributing any monsters, but it loses 1000 Attack Points." A large knight in silver armor flew onto the field on a large shield and had a large silver sword in its hand.
Galaxy Knight: Level 8/LIGHT/Warrior/1800 Atk (Originally 2800 Atk)/2600 Def
"And the best part is when Galaxy Knight is summoned this way, I can revive my Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon!" Kite's knight threw its sword between it and Galaxy Wizard, then the sword turned to light and the Grave portal opened and Galaxy Eyes rose up out of it and gave a roar.
Galaxy Eyes: 3000 Atk/2500 Def
"Three Level 8s?! Is he gonna-" Mizar said.
"I Overlay my Level 8 Galaxy Eyes with my Galaxy Wizard and Galaxy Knight!" His Dragon roared as it turned to light as did the other two monster, only Galaxy Eyes still had the silhouette of its wings and was in the center as the other two circled it as it went into, not a golden or red portal, but a pink one, and once they disappeared into it, it turned into a black hole. "This is it!" A large black and red spear manifested in his hand. "You are both finished!" He yelled as he threw the spear into the hole.
"WITH THE POWER OF THIS BEAST THE BATTLE IS OVER! I XYZ SUMMON NEO GALAXY EYES PHOTON DRAGON!" Kite said as the black hole exploded with red energy.
A large and ferocious dragon emerged onto the field. It was illuminated with red light and had deep black scales all alone its body. But the monster's most striking feature was its three horned heads. The dragon spread its humongous wings and gave a roar that shook the very field of space.
Neo Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon: Rank 8/LIGHT/Dragon/4500 Atk/3000 Def
"He… he summoned a Neo Galaxy Eyes!" Mizar said, his dragon then gave a glare at Kite's new dragon.
"That monster has 4500 Attack Points!" Quattro said.
Kite smiled. "And that's not the worst of it, for you that is. See when I use Photon Dragon to summon Neo Galaxy Eyes, all other monsters immediately lose their special abilities! GO PHOTON HOWLING!" His monster took a huge breath and large howl that subdued Destiny Leo and drained power away from Chaos Dyson Sphere's jagged panels.
"Our monsters!" Quinton yelled as his monster was defenseless now.
"Incredible! His monster can negate a Number's power instantly, and with those Attack Points it can destroy any opponent!" Mizar said.
"Oh I'm just getting started! Neo Galaxy Eyes will now us an Overlay Unit to activate its other special ability!" Kite's monster chomped down on one of its Overlay Units. "This allows him to devour the Overlay Units from all the other monsters on the field!" The DARK Attribute Overlay Units from Destiny Leo and Chaos Dyson Sphere, plus the Chaos Overlay Unit from Emperor Dragon. The two normal Overlay Units were eaten by the two smaller heads, and the Chaos Overlay Unit was devoured by the large middle head, and all three gave a roar once they finished. "And for each Overlay Unit absorbed Neo Galaxy Eyes gains 500 Attack Points for each one!"
"Say what now?!" Quattro yelled as he saw Kite's monster grow even stronger.
Neo Galaxy Eyes Atk: 4500 + 500 (X3) = 6000
"And the to further seal your doom my dragon can attack once for each Unit, so a total of three times!" Kite said.
"We… we are screwed…" Quinton said.
"NEO GALAXY EYES PHOTON DRAGON, DESTROY DESTINY LEO WITH ULTIMATE PHOTON STREAM OF DESTRUCTION!" Kite yelled as all three of his monster's heads collected energy and shot it a Destiny Leo, which teared it to bits and blast Quattro on his back as he screamed.
Quattro: 4000 – 2800 = 1200
"No, Thomas!" Quinton yelled his brother's true name as he saw him helpless on the ground, in pain. He then turned and saw Neo Galaxy Eyes blasting his Chaos Dyson Sphere's center star, causing a reaction that resulted in a large scale explosion that sending him flying back.
Quinton: 4000 – 2400 = 1600
"Chris…" Quattro said weakly as he saw his older brother thrown on the ground.
"Neo Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon, attack Quattro directly!" Kite said without mercy in his voice. "This is for my brother Hart! ULTIMATE PHOTON STREAM OF DESTRUCTION!" His monster then blasted its red energy at an unprotected Quattro, who was send flying further than before, and he was covered in scratches and bruises.
Quattro: 1200 – 6000 = 0 (LOSE)
"I end my turn. Mizar, I hand things over the you." Kite said, his monster roaring victoriously as his attacks were completed.
Mizar chuckled. "Then I draw!" Mizar drew his card, but he wouldn't even need it. "Galaxy Eyes Tachyon Dragon, attack Quinton directly and secure all of us victory! TACHYON SPIRAL OF DESTRUCTION!" His dragon blasted Quinton the same distance as his brother, and covered in just as many wounds.
Quinton: 1400 – 3000 = 0 (LOSE)
WINNERS: Kite and Mizar
The Duel was over and the field disappeared, returning everyone to the abandoned museum. The two dragons gave a roar at each other before disappearing. "Time to find out where my brother is." Kite said as his red aura disappeared and he threw out his Photon Hand at Quattro.
"I can use that Number 9 for the glory of Barian World!" Mizar said as his hand turned red and ghost like as it stretched out over towards Quinton. But even in their unconscious state the brothers' Crests activated and not only repelled the hand, but caused damage to Kite and Mizar.
"Master Kite!" Orbital said as Kite was thrown back.
Mizar struggled to stand up after his hit. "This power… why is it so damn familiar?!"
There was the sound of footsteps and the two Galaxy Eyes users looked and saw a teenager carrying Hart in his arms. "Hart!" Kite yelled. One the teen put Hart down he rushed over to his brother, who was unconscious.
"He'll be fine. He's just exhausted, but you should know that he gave everything he had and more to you so you could in against my brothers." Trey said as he activated his green Crest. Two portal opened that sucked in Quattro and Quinton. "For what you did to them, you better watch your back." Trey then turned towards Mizar. "Both of you." The two portals closed and a third one opened and he went through.
"Master Hart." Orbital 7 said as he scanned the unconscious child. "Master Hart is stable, which is more than I can say for you Master Kite, but he does need medical attention."
Kite then turned towards Mizar. "I guess I should thank you for backing me up there. It's hard for me to say this, but I know I would have lost against them if not for you."
"It was a forced partnership that I guarantee will not happen again. But if I should have ever been forced into a tag Duel with an enemy, I guess I couldn't have had a better partner, what with you being able to tame a Galaxy Eyes." Mizar chuckled. "Make no mistake though, next time we face each other we will be enemies and only one of us will walk away." Mizar then held out his hand and opened a portal. "This portal will take you where you need to go."
"Why?" Kite asked as he picked up his brother.
"Take it as a sign of appreciation." Mizar said. "If I had faced them alone, in this human form, then I can't positively that I would have won." He said as he opened another portal. "But remember, next time only one of our dragons will win." He walked through the portal and disappeared.
Kite smiled as he looked forward to that day. He walked into the portal with his brother in his arms and walked through it to Heartland tower.
Eclipsa was sitting on a balcony, sipping tea when Terra and Mayura rushed up behind her. "Eclipsa, something's happened!" Mayura said.
"You guys broke the thing you brought back from Heartland Tower did you! Damn it I knew Millennia should have sent me!" Eclipsa said.
"No!" Terra said. "We didn't break it! It has to do with the ritual that was draining Hart of his energy, he wasn't completely drained."
"What? How's that possible? Tron's kids should have held Kite off!" Eclipsa exclaimed.
"Yes, well Kite was forced into a team up with a Barian, Mizar, and Kite summoned a Neo Galaxy Eyes!" Terra said.
"A Neo Galaxy Eyes?! Seriously?!"
"Yes, seriously. Tron said that Quattro and Quinton both took direct attacks from the Galaxy Eyes, and they won't be able to compete for the rest of the Duel Carnival." Mayura said. "We lost two of our best Pawns, so what are we going to do?"
"Simple, we execute plan Theta." Millennia said as she walked up from behind Terra and Mayura.
"Now? In the middle of the tournament?" Eclipsa said. "Do you really think this is the best time?"
"It is if we want the Numbers. We need them to get revenge! Revenge for us, revenge for them." Millennia said. "Terra, Mayura, you know which Number to bring." Millennia said to the two girls, who then walked away to get the Number.
Eclipsa looked at Millennia's masked face. "Are you sure about this? They haven't collected may Number so maybe we should wait until they have more."
"I'm sure. The soon we do this, the sooner we can move on to the next phase of our plan." Millennia said. She then turned towards her reflection in the glass and touched her face under the mask.
Eclipsa exhaled. "Why do you hide it? What could possibly be under there? Of all the people in the world I should at least see it!" Eclipsa pulled back her hair, revealing her scared face. "You where there this happened, you were the first one to see it! So I deserve to see had happened to you!" She yelled as she put her hair back.
"Actually, it's because of what I've done that you are the last person to see it." Millennia said. "We take extreme measures to get what we need, but what I had to do to get here, the price I paid to discover the truth…" A single tear fell from her face. "Every time I see my reflection it reminds me of what I've done… What terrible things I've done…"
Terra then walked up with a Number in her hand. "Here." She handed the Number to Millennia.
"Perfect. The downfall of the remaining Emperors begins now!" Millennia said with a wicked smile. Her Crest manifested in her hand and red energy engulfed the card and then she flattened it with her other hand, and when she pulled it back it was in the shape of a butterfly. She then blew a kiss at it and it flew way.
Hart and Kite were on separate beds, hooked up to several machines. Mr. Hartland was in between them when a screen popped up in front of him, and on the screen was Dr. Faker.
"Oh my dear sons… I can't help be feel responsible for what's happened to you…" Dr. Faker said.
"Yes, but don't worry Doctor. Both Kite and Hart will be fine in a matter of days." Heartland said.
"Yes, but what about Hart's power? Who stole it?!" Dr. Faker yelled.
"Well sir, according to Kite it was a series of young men wielding power symbols. Now while Kite will be better soon, the medical staff recommend he stay on bed rest until for the next couple of days. Now while he already has his Hart Pieces, securing his position in the Finals, should we take him out of commission?" Hartland asked.
"Yes, we should." Dr. Faker said. "We need him at his full strength for the Final, to take Hart's power back." Dr. Faker said. "We need it to up hold our deal with Barian."
"Very well Doctor." Hartland said.
Astral was looking out the window into the moon. "We thought this tournament would bring a challenge, but today was beyond that." Astral said to himself. "First Yuma fights a friend, then I fight one as well. But the shattering news what one of Yuma's old friends being a Crest bearer, a Diamond, as she called herself. If the other three are as powerful as Eclipsa was, then we really need to up our game." Astral turned and looked at the sleeping Yuma. "I just hope tomorrow is better than today was." Astral smiled, then his smiled disappeared. "Because soon I fear that tomorrow will only get worse."
Carnival Day 2 Trailer:
Day 2 is here and everyone's excited...
"This is it Astral! Day 2 and we only need two more Heart Pieces!" Yuma said with glee.
But it's not all singing and dancing...
[Ren]
Tell me, Tell me you wanna get away
Tell me, Tell me now what you wanna say
Old monsters with new tricks...
I XYZ SUMMON CHAOS XYZ TITANIUM EMPEROR!"
Some are out for blood...
Rio growled. "You bitch! I'll give you frostbite so bad you'll feel like you jumped into a volcano!"
Enemies are making a move...
"Time to show you why you never had a chance at defeating us! I Draw!" Terra drew her card.
And they are not messing around...
Astral gasped as he saw the Crests on their hands. "Yuma, you can't take the two girls on alone!"
But nobody's backing down...
Tori groaned as she pulled herself up off the ground. "You can throw whatever you want at me, but I will never give up! NEVER!"
Plans are unfolding...
"If we want this to go as planned, he has to use the card we gave him!" Eclipsa said.
Some will win at any cost...
"If this is the only way to not lose, then I have to do it!" Shark thought.
