Yu-Gi-Oh: RWBY Chronicles
Chapter 4: The Burning Spirit
(Unknown Grim Lair)
Nothing has change much from the last time we visited this place. The humanoid Grim were just doing normal Grim things when not killing humans. Ursas were arm wrestling, Nevermores were delivering messages, and the Beowolfs were arguing who would break the bad news to the Liege.
"You tell him." Beowolf 1 spoke.
"No you tell him." Beowolf 2 said, pushing the first Beowolf.
"We'll draw straws." Beowolf 3 said, holding up 2 long straws and a short one.
The Beowolfs than drew straws from a cup, and the one who got the short end of the straw was Beowolf 2. He then looked down as he realized that he might feel the Liege's wrath as he had a bad morning already, because some wolves ate all the meat last night. All non-vegetarian grim went hungry that night. Beowolf 2 walked into the corridors, and there was nothing but silence at first. And then there was a scream of agony as Beowolf two was sent flying out of the doors. The other Beowolfs looked in the hallway to find the liege standing on his feet and in a karate like punching pose.
"What are you looking at?" Liege asked, in an unpleasant mood.
"Nothing!" Both Beowolfs yelled as they then booked it for the nearest exit.
The Liege went back to his throne and sat down, annoyed of how the battle was turning out.
"Whoever this Anna Yuno is, she may be the most dangerous adversary we have ever faced yet! The ultimate hindrance to our mission!" Liege spoke under his breath
(Road to Neon High School)
Anna Yuno was in a sleepy mood and she yawned, as she was currently on her way to school with Zack. She normally doesn't feel this tired. But when you fight evil forces from another dimension, it's bound to take a toll on your body. Ruby, Weiss and Blake followed. Ruby was disappointed that she had to follow Anna to school, even though she didn't had to attend classes. Weiss was glad that they would be educated about Anna and Zack's dimension. Blake was just ok with it, as she was reading her book.
"Gee Anna. You sure look worn out. Think you can stay up in class?" Zack asked.
"Don't worry Zack. I'm just not use to fighting evil beings on a daily basis. I still can't believe you girls take classes on how to kill monsters." Anna said.
"Says the girl who lives in a dimension, which has schools that teach people how to play pro at a card game." Weiss replied back.
"Touché. Anyway, what's wrong with you Ruby? You don't look so happy." Anna asked.
"I just didn't think we would have to go to another school when coming to a different dimension. Plus, there isn't a training session for fighting Grim here." Ruby complained.
"It's not like you have to attend the class. I mean, only Zack, me, and Victoria can see you guys." Anna replied.
"Weiss suggested that we pay attention in your class, and that she was going to make me." Ruby said, glaring at Weiss.
"I think it is important to learn more about Anna's world, and we do need to be educated. I also have doubts that you two can explain everything there is in the world." Weiss stated, slightly offending Zack.
"Hey! That statement is highly, correct now that I think about it." Zack said, as Weiss smiled that she won the argument so easily.
"So, when you guys are done with school, will we go look for Yang?" Blake asked, still reading her book.
Anna and Zack looked at each other. It wasn't like they would be able to look for their last remaining friend at any given time. They had school work, tests and books to read. As much as they want to help their new friends, they also had personal things in their lives they just can't ignore.
"Look guys. I know we said we would help you, but Zack and I have things to do in our lives that just can't be ignored. So depending on how much work we have, we'll have to wait for a week before finding your final friend." Anna said.
Ruby, Weiss and Blake looked at each other. Ruby was worried that they might have to wait a week or more to find her sister. Weiss knew that Anna and Zack were helping them, and that they had no right to force them to do whatever they wanted. Blake gave Ruby glances that told her to respect Anna and Zack's decisions.
"Alright guys, we understand. I'm just worried about Yang." Ruby said, trying to put on a smile.
"I not sure if we should worry about her. You do know what she is capable of." Weiss said.
"But she is going to be tiny like us." Blake stated.
"As if that is going to stop her from picking a fight with the enemy." Weiss argued back.
After that statement, RWB started to worry less, knowing what their last teammate was capable of. Ruby had a spark of hope knowing that Yang can handle herself pretty well. Weiss was now worried about what will happen when they find her. Blake was concerned about finding her partner, and what crazy things she might have done within the past 3 days.
"Don't worry girls. We'll find her. And when we do, I guess we can kick off your mission with a Yang!" Zack punned.
At this moment, Ruby, Weiss and Blake groaned while Anna just stared at her friend.
Anna was very annoyed by this. She has been friends with Zack for a long time, and she deeply cares about him. She just can't stand him and his puns. The first couple of times were funny, but after that, it just kept on getting repetitive to a point where she just gets tired of hearing them. She does admit a play on words is cool, but doesn't want to hear it over and over again. She got used to hearing puns on a daily basis, but it didn't stop her from giving Zack the evil eye.
"Come on Zack. Let's get to class." Anna said annoyed as she dragged Zack by his school uniform collar.
Weiss at first was just annoyed of the puns that Zack tries to make from time to time. She then realized something that made her dread with horror.
"Wait! I just realized something. If Zack meets Yang, and if one them says one of those awful puns, then that means…" Weiss said.
"We would have two people that would make puns together non-stop." Blake finished with dread, as Yang was known for her horrible puns.
She tried to forget that stage night that featured Yang.
"ANYTHING BUT THAT! HIS PUNS ARE JUST AS WORST AS YANG'S!" Ruby screamed holding her hand to her head.
(5th period chemistry class)
Anna and Zack were at their station working on a lab, of creating the shown chemical on the board with the items that they were given. RWB meanwhile were looking around the room examining it.
"So you have a plan on finding Yang? Flask please." Zack asked.
"Well, considering all the work that is due tomorrow, I have my doubts that we'll have the time to look for this Yang person. I mean, we can't just ditch school, no matter how badly we need to look for her. Pass me the tongs please. Anna replied, now handing the Bunsen burner.
In the background Ruby was walking around a chemical set that is on the table (she's chibi, so she can walk on the table), and then accidentally knocked over a flask with her arm, causing the contents to spill on the table. She then began to look around frantically, and quickly grab a pile of towels, wiping up the mess.
"There is also the problem that the Grim don't have any kind of exploration limits, so they can get ahead of us when they can. So we have to manage our time well." Anna also said.
"You sure you can do that? I mean you have a lot to juggle with school work, your dream of becoming a pro-duelist and taking care of your sister. With team RWBY in the mix, it might be harder. Measuring cup please." Zack replied.
Ruby, who was trying to act casually in the background, begins to notice that the chemicals she spilled were highly acidic, as it ate its way into the table. Ruby then begins to panic. Weiss, who was examining a chemistry book, looking at the periodic table, takes notices of this. She then stormed over to where Ruby was and begins to scold her of her mistake.
"To tell you the truth Zack, I not sure if I'm suited to be team RWBY's duelist. Don't get me wrong but, I don't know if I'm capable of standing high and mighty next to team RWBY. The reason why they are with us in the first place, is because we were the first duelist that they came across with. Samples please." Anna said, as she wonder if she was good enough for team RWBY.
"I wouldn't worry too much about it Anna. You should just let things goes of how they should. You are such a worry bird." Zack replied.
Weiss was finished scolding Ruby, but as she walks away, she slips on some water, and almost falls into the hole. Ruby caught her in the nick of time. Weiss was yelling at Ruby furiously not to let go, since at the bottom of the hole were a whole bunch of Bunsen burners that were recently used. Ruby was trying to lift Weiss up, which wouldn't be much of a problem, if the table wasn't covered in water.
"I am not a worry bird Zack!" Anna said offended of what Zack said.
"You literally freaked out this morning thinking that the 1st period test was today, when it was actually tomorrow. You started muttering yourself, and curled up in the corner." Zack said, embarrassed having to mention that.
"Tests are important Zack." Anna retorted.
"What about last night? You thought that you left your wallet back at the train yard that you screamed so loud, that you almost scarred the living soul out of Ruby." Zack asked.
Anna did remembered that moment. She literally went ballistic, scarring Ruby so hard that she fainted. It wasn't till long until Zack came along and explained to Anna that it was in her jacket pocket the entire time. He then explained to Weiss and Blake that Anna had a tendency to overreact at times, due to the amount of stress she has. A scolding from Weiss then followed.
"I guess you're right. I'm just a little stressed out trying to accomplish everything that I need to do." Anna hesitantly admitted.
In the background, Ruby just pulled Weiss out of the hole and they were taking a breather. Ruby then realized that they could of hover in the air since they were half spirit in this world. Weiss looked away as she just realized it too. Blake then came over to ask what was going on, only to accidently slip on the water knocking down another flask in the hole. The three chibi girls then looked down into the hole, not knowing what was going to happen.
"You just need to know when to take it easy. Oh by the way, I picked this up today." Zack said, holding up a new card.
"Wait. This looks like a Huntress support card. Where did you get it?" Anna asked surprised.
"I found it while we were leaving the train yard." Zack said, remembering himself picking up the card.
"Gee, thanks Zack. You know. I think I would go insane without you." Anna said smiling at Zack.
"Don't mention it Anna. By the way, we have a test next period." Zack said.
"WHAT! I DIDN'T KNOW!" Anna yelled.
"Just, Kidding." Zack said slyly.
Anna just glared at Zack, but shrugged it off. She does admit the fact that she is over reactive at times, when it comes to certain tasks. Luckily, these traits don't show when she is dueling. Just then the fire alarm rang. Anna and Zack quickly turned their heads around to see a huge massive pillar of fire shooting right up from the table behind them. After evacuating the school grounds, the principal made the announcement that the school would be closed for two days. Anna and Zack looked at each other, and realized how convenient it was that this fire was going to start their search back up again.
"Well, might as well start our search again." Zack said
"Yeah I guess. I wonder what started that fire though." Anna said as she went to get her stuff.
As Anna went to get their stuff, Zack turned his attention towards the three chibi girls who were acting like nothing ever happened.
"Did you three see anything?" Zack asked.
"NO!" all three of them replied.
"Okay." Zack replied, being completely oblivious of who done it.
"This stays between the three of us." Ruby said quietly, as Weiss and Blake agreed.
(Same evil lair again)
The Liege was on his throne, and he was searching through the holographic card database, trying to figure out which deck to use. The one thing he knows for certain is that Anna Yuno used Synchro monsters. However, no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find any Synchro cards on the database. Then, a Beowolf came in delivering the Liege's daily lunch: The Despair bento.
"I don't get it. This is supposed to be the advance tech that tells us about all the cards that I need to build a deck. But yet, I don't see any Synchro monsters. Something smells fishy, and it isn't the fish in my lunch." Liege spoke as he ate his fish.
The Beowolf then noticed something about the modem.
"Uh, sir. I think this is an outdated piece of hardware." The Beowolf spoke.
"What did you say?" Liege asked.
"Apparently, the Crawler mechanic here accidently installed a past file of previous duel cards. This isn't updated with extra deck monsters." Beowolf spoke.
The Liege was furious at this. The entire time, he has been building decks, without adding in extra deck monsters, all just because some Crawler got an incomplete dueling terminal drive. He then calmed down a bit, and decided to execute the Crawler later. The Beowolf then updated the terminal as it then booted up, giving the Liege access to all the new cards he can use in his decks. When he brought up the screen, something caught his eye.
"XYZ? This sounds interesting. You there! Bring me Grand Kuma. He has a new assignment today." The Liege spoke.
The Beowolf nodded and went out to retrieve Grand Kuma. The Liege now had access to a hold new selection of cards, and was ready to use them on Anna Yuno. The doors then blew open as a gust of wind blew through the corridors of the throne room.
"Grand Kuma Reporting for duty." The figure in the doorway said.
(Down Town Area of Jewel City at Night)
It was night time, and a lot of people were home, relaxing in their chairs and doing what they want. Anna, Zack and RWB weren't doing that. They were instead walking for several hours, following the signal to where the final member of team RWBY was. Anna and Zack were tired after walking so much. Blake didn't mind as it gave her time to read her book. Weiss was annoyed that it was taking so long. And Ruby had been waiting so long, that she immediately lost all of her patience.
"I'M BORED! Entertain me." Ruby said, to Anna and Zack, knowing she would get a "no" from Weiss, and that Blake was invested in her reading.
"Not now Ruby, I need to focus." Anna replied, as she sounded annoyed with the fact that she had Ruby pestering her all day and that they weren't at their location yet.
"Entertain me Zack." Ruby said, with a face that said she wanted to do something.
Zack looked at Ruby, and then at Weiss. Weiss face told Zack that she wasn't helping him at all, and that he was on his own for this. Zack looked at Ruby, who looked extremely eager for him to do something. It felt like he was dealing with a five year old who was bored after the first five minutes. He quickly looked around to see if there was anything to do. He would show his hero deck to Ruby, but he really didn't want to show her an incomplete deck. He then began sweating nervously as Ruby's cute face made it even more stressful for Zack as he started sweating like crazy. He literally wished he could be as cold as the ice queen. Just as he was about break under the cute intensity of Ruby's boredom, Anna then said something.
"Guys! We are getting closer to the signal! That means that our journey is over! (Finally). Anna said and thought as she was just exhausted from walking and waiting.
"That's great Anna, I'll go right ahead to get a head start and scout ahead." Zack said as he yanked the radar out of Anna's hands and then heads towards the signal.
Anna was confused on why Zack was making a run for it, but she didn't cared as she was about to meet the fourth member of team RWBY. She then followed Zack, and she remembered the coordinates exactly so she knew where to go. When she and RWB got there, they saw Zack looking up with a disappointed look on his face.
"Hey Zack what's…stopping…you." Anna said as she looked up as well, as her face turned to that of annoyance.
Apparently they the place that Yang was located was at the "Miner's Night Gem Club", and the sign clearly stated that those that are under the ages of 18, cannot enter. At this point, Anna was about to blow a fuse that she walked all the way from school, with a heavy backpack on her back, for hours, and with an energetic Ruby that kept bugging her.
"I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE! WE WALKED ALL THE WAY FROM SCHOOL FOR WHO KNOWS HOW LONG IT TOOK, AND NOW OUT OF ALL THE PLACES WE HAD TO GO TO, IT HAD TO BE A NIGHTCLUB!" Anna shouted with anger as some people stared at her. Ruby, Weiss and Blake were taken back of how Anna, the happy-go girl, was going on a rant.
"Is Anna okay Zack?" Weiss asked, staring at a really peeved Anna.
"Oh, don't worry. This is what I like to call, Crazy Anna. Usually, Anna doesn't get mad that easily, but push her buttons and pull the right switches, and then she might burst. I like say there are five different levels of Crazy Anna. This is level 3, the stage where she goes on non-stop ranting. Levels 1 and 2 are mild annoyance." Zack explained.
"So, what do we do now?" Blake asked.
"I got this. So sit back and just watch." Zack said as he then started walking towards Anna.
Ruby, Weiss and Blake were curious of what Zack was going to do, when she got to Anna, who was still rambling. When Zack got to Anna, RWB was highly surprised and shocked of what he did next.
"SNAP OUT OF IT ANNA!" Zack yelled, as he then slapped Anna across the face.
Ruby was shocked that a boy would actually hit a girl across the face like that. Weiss took it as an offensive act against women as she had a face as if someone was mocking her. Blake just couldn't believe that Zack would do something like that to his friend. Ruby was shocked, as she was told nice men shouldn't hit ladies. At this point, Ruby, Weiss and Blake could all agree that these two kids were weird in certain aspects.
"Gee Zack. Did you really had to hit that hard?" Anna asked rubbing her face.
"It's something called tough love. You feeling better now?" Zack asked.
"Yeah. Thanks, I guess." Anna replied.
Anna and Zack then went back over to Ruby, Weiss and Blake, who were still stun of what Zack did. They then proceed to tackle Zack for his actions. Anna was surprised of how Zack was getting subdue by three chibi girls.
"You should be ashamed of yourself mister!" Weiss yelled pulling on Zack's ears.
"What kind of person hits their own friends!?" Blake yelled as she had his arms tied up with Gambol Shroud.
"You will be judge for your crimes!" Ruby yelled angrily, wielding her Crescent Rose.
Anna had to stop the three girls before Zack got punished. She explained to them that she asked Zack to do that to her every time she goes into her crazy states. It's become a normal routine for Anna and Zack: Anna goes crazy, and Zack slaps her back to reality. RWB just sweat dropped and thought that their relationship was a weird, but yet touching at the same time, of how these two kids look out for each other.
"So what do we do now? It's clear that we can't go into that building. You two don't have the clearance to enter." Blake said directing her attention towards the Anna and Zack.
"I know. Why don't we just call Victoria? She's nineteen." Zack exclaimed.
"Yeah! I bet she would be eager to help us." Ruby said, in agreement with Zack.
"Guys. We can't just call my sister for everything." Anna said, with her hand on her head.
"Why not? It makes perfect sense that your sister would help you in a time like this, considering her personality." Weiss asked, confused.
"My sister may care about me, but she also has a whole bunch to deal with. She is super busy most of time. You ever wonder why I usually do all the chores? It is because Victoria is busy studying most of the time. Also, something happened the last time I bother her during a study session." Anna said, as a chill ran through her spine.
"What happened?" Ruby asked.
"I don't want to talk about it." Anna replied, as she was having a bad flashback.
"I wonder what happened between Anna and her sister." Weiss asked.
"I think it's best to just leave it at that." Blake responded, but still curious about what happened.
After having her bad flashback. Anna proceeded to just stare off into space for a few moments, and then went back on track.
"Either way, I can't call Victoria, because I have no idea what she is doing, and it's not like she is going to show up anytime…" Anna said until.
"Hi Anna." Victoria said as she was seen in the ally.
"Your sister is quite convenient Anna." Weiss said..
"Victoria! What are you doing here?" Anna asked as she was surprised.
"I was in downtown district getting takeout for us. I should be asking you why you are in front of Nightclub. You weren't planning on sneaking in, are you?" Victoria asked with a dangerous glare in her eye.
The glare send chills down RWB and Zack's spines, as they felt strong energy radiating off of Victoria. Anna was stuttering, until she finally got her words out. Her sister may care about her, but that won't stop her from punishing her dearly.
"No! It's not like that! Ruby's final teammate is in the Nightclub!" Anna explained as she does not want to feel the wrath of Victoria.
"Oh. I see now. I suppose you five need my help? Am I correct?" Victoria asked, as she reverted back to her friendly calm personality.
Everyone just nodded. RWB and Zack just witness a portion of the Victoria's menacing side. Anna however got the full course at some point in the past. Ruby then gave Victoria a description of what Yang looked like, and Victoria proceed to the door, and showed her ID to the bouncer. And with that Victoria, was in the club, leaving everyone else outside. Everyone didn't know what was going to happen so they waited outside.
"So what's Yang like?" Zack asked.
"She is one of the coolest sisters ever. No offense Anna." Ruby said.
"None taken. Wait. She's your sister?" Anna said, a little surprised at the last part.
"Yang is an efficient teammate, and she has my deepest respect. Although she is quite reckless in my opinion." Weiss said.
"In a way, you could say that she is the one that looks out for the team. Just a quick warning, don't touch her hair." Blake said.
Ruby, Weiss and Blake described Yang as a very lively person, being straightforward and confident. She was a fun, humorous, but yet mature at the same time. She solves most of her problems with her fights with her fists. The way Yang was describe to Anna and Zack sounded like she was a nice girl hang around with. They also didn't want to get on her bad side, after hearing what one little strand of hair could do.
"As fun as she sounds. I just can't believe she'll go berserk over a strand of hair. I may be a girl, but hair is just hair." Anna said.
"Wow! I would like to meet this Yang. She sounds so fun. I wonder if she likes puns." Zack said, as he didn't know how right he was.
Ruby, Weiss, and Blake made it their top social priority to make sure that Yang and Zack, don't pun next to each other.
Several minutes had pass and nothing has happened, and Ruby was bored again.
"Uuuuuuggggghhhhhh! There is nothing to do!" Ruby screamed.
"Weiss, can you do something about this? You did live with her for a school year." Zack asked.
"My method is that you pretend she doesn't exist." Weiss replied.
"That's cold Weiss! Anna, Zack! Don't you know anything else about Duel Monster?" Ruby asked, desperate for something else to happen.
Anna and Zack thought of what to do to entertain Ruby. They then looked at each other and immediately got the lightbulb.
"Well, as a matter of fact, this is bound to catch your attention. Have you ever heard of XYZ summoning?" Zack said, getting the attention of Ruby.
"What's that?" Ruby asked
"It's…" Zack was about to say, until an explosion was heard from the Nightclub.
Everyone turned their heads toward the explosion. It was coming from the Nightclub. People were running out of the building screaming. A couple pieces of furniture were flying out of the windows as well. Anna then decided to ask a passerby of what was going on.
"Um, you mind telling me what is happening." Anna asked the stranger.
"It's chaos in there! Some crazy black creature just came in there, and is attacking the place. Not to mention there is some Blond in there fighting in there." The Stranger said.
"A blond?" Zack replied.
"Call me crazy. But for an instance, when I looked back, I swear I saw a small yellow flame flying around it. I'm out of here!" The stranger said as he booked it for the nearest taxi.
Anna and Zack knew that the blond would have to Victoria, and that the black beast must be a Grim, but they were confused about the small yellow flame. RWB might have a good idea who that small yellow flame might be.
"You don't think…" Ruby said, as her question was answered when the upper window burst open.
"AAAAWWWWWWW YYYEEEAAAHHHHH!" A female voice yelled from above.
"TTTTHHHHHIIISSSSSS IIIISSSSS TTTTTTOOOOOO IIINNTTTEEENSE!" Victoria yelled from above, as she was scared for her life.
Everyone looked up to see a 19 year old Blond girl and a Blond Chibi girl, jumping out of an upper window as an explosion was seen in the background. The two blonds then landed on the ground, with Yang doing a battle roll, while Victoria fell into a large crate of water.
"Nailed it." Yang said as she got up.
Anna and Zack got a better look at the small chibi. She was appeared to be a teenage girl (despite being chibi) with purple eyes, wearing a tan vest with gold piping over a yellow-cut crop top with a black crest that resembles a burning heart. The vest has puffy cap sleeves with black cuffs. She also wore a brown belt with a buckle, a pouch, and a small banner like object. She also wore black shorts under her belt, which resembles a pleated skirt in the back, with and orange scarf. Her foot wear, are brown knee-high platform boots, with orange socks of different length. What was noticeable were the two bracelets around her arms. She also had long blond hair, which is a bit messy, but beautiful in a way. Anna and Zack then realized that Victoria was still in the tub, and ran over to her. Ruby meanwhile was happy to see her sister immediately running up to her.
"Yang!" Ruby said, hugging her sister.
"Ruby! It's so good to see you again. But why are we so tiny?" Yang said, as she was relieved to see her sister.
"I think the better question is what in the world is going on in that club." Weiss said as she walked up to Yang.
"Weiss! No hello? Cold as ever." Yang said, smirking.
"Hey!" Weiss replied, slightly annoyed.
"I'm just kidding. It's good to see you too Weiss." Yang replied smiling.
"I guess it is nice to see you again." Weiss said turning her head, blushing a bit.
"Yeah. This team wouldn't be complete without you." Blake said walking up to Yang.
"Blake! You're here too! Ah man, it's so great to see all of you!" Yang said, putting her arms around Ruby, Weiss and Blake.
"Team RWBY is back together again!" Ruby yelled happily.
While team RWBY was having their reunion, Anna and Zack were busy pulling Victoria out of the water bucket.
"You okay Victoria?" Anna asked.
"Considering the fact I had to choose to fall face first on the concert, or fall into a bucket of water, I would say I'm pretty much fine and alive." Victoria said, trying to force a smile.
"So what in the blazes happened back in there that caused that explosion?" Zack asked.
"Well, here is what happened." Victoria said, beginning her play back."
(Several Minutes Ago)
When Victoria entered the club, the first thing she saw were people dancing on the dance floor, some of them were having drinking contests, and others were chatting. Looking for a card in this mess was like looking for a needle in a haystack. She also knew that this Yang person had to a spirit, so she had to be around here somewhere. Feeling a little thirsty she went to the bar and sat down, and just order some apple cider. The person on her left then nudged her in the arm. He was a man in his mid-20s, and Victoria immediately didn't like this guy.
"What's a pretty gal like you doing here?" The man asked smiling.
"I suggest you watch your tongue, if you don't want to have to aching pain in your stomach for four days straight." Victoria said, analyzing the rude man.
"Subject shows no signs of backing down. Several others are around and looking at him. Possibly his friends. Fighting the entire group may be catastrophic for my health. The safest choice is to leave. If he grabs my arm…" Victoria thought in her head, as she got up.
"Now hold it girly." The man said about to grab Victoria's arm, dooming himself.
"…employ arm block. Twist him his arm, kick him in both legs to immobilize him, and then bring him around as a hostage." Victoria thought as she used her martial arts training to hold the guy by his arms and turned him around.
The rest of his groups noticed and then became hostile towards Victoria.
"I would suggest you tell your friends to stand down. I won't kill you, but I do know how to make a man cry like a little girl." Victoria said sinisterly, as her glasses flashed for intensity.
"YOU'RE CRAZY! Do what she says guys!" The man spoke in fear.
The group hesitantly back down, as Victoria threw their boss towards them. She then proceeded to walk away. The group then saw their chance as they then rushed towards Victoria. She however knew if the obstacle preventing you from attacking was gone, you may charge. Little did Victoria know, from above the beams that supported the second floor, a small yellow figure was watching in amusement as she was about to enjoy the beat down.
"The group looks clumsy, and their formation is terrible. Threat level is considered to be a 0.5 out of 5. All charging in a single direction, and no one is trying to flank me." Victoria thought as she was unimpressed.
"No running in the halls boys. You learned this in elementary school." Victoria said, as she took two large glasses of water and poured them in front of her, and then added soda to the mix.
Due to the lack of friction, the first goon slid on the water as the others constantly tripped over the first, causing a domino effect of the thugs slipping over each other. Victoria then jumped back to avoid getting caught in the mess. She then looked upon the defeated pile of men and proceeded to walk away, brushing her hands together. Considering that no one cares what goes on this bar, it was just an ordinary gang of men, getting beating by one girl. Victoria then proceeded to walk up to the boss of the group.
"Look! I'm sorry. Just please don't hurt me!" The man screamed as he was scarred of Victoria now.
"Have you seen a card with a little yellow chibi with purple eyes on it?" Victoria asked directly.
"Wait. You beat us up, and your demand is asking if I saw card like that? The man said, a little shocked about her question.
"Just tell me, or else." Victoria said, as she gave off her menacing glare.
"You looking for me?" A female voice said from behind.
Victoria turned her head towards the voice. She then saw a small blond chibi girl who appeared to seventeen, smiling at her. Knowing she was the only person that could see this spirit, she then decided to give out a signal to her.
"I'm now going to go upstairs, by myself, and see if said card is there." Victoria said looking at the small blond winking at her.
"Uh, okay?" The man said, confused on what Victoria was doing.
The small blond, who Victoria knew was Yang, takes notice of the signs and then followed Victoria upstairs. The upstairs area was the quiet area, where people could just talk in peace and drink together. Victoria made sure no one was around and sat down with the yellow chibi in front of her.
"So, who might you be?" Victoria asked the blond.
"I'm Yang Xiao Long. Pleasure to meet you. Also, I got to say I'm quite impress with the way how you took that entire gang of goons down with just couple glasses of water. Of course I could have taken them all down by myself." Yang said.
"Well, thank you. I'm Victoria Yuno, and I suppose you have some questions for me." Victoria said, as she drank her apple cider.
"As a matter fact, I do. I want to know, why you know me, why I am so tiny, and why there is a picture of me on a card." Yang said, showing Victoria the RWBY-Soul: Yang Xiao Long card to Victoria.
"Well, let's just say I'm associated with your teammates." Victoria said, putting the card in her special card protector.
"You know my teammates! If so then tell me what makes them so special." Yang demanded, wanting to make sure she wasn't lying.
"One of them is cookie eater, the other is a cold Ice Queen, and the last one is a ninja cat." Victoria stated.
"That sounds about right. So how do you know them?" Yang asked.
Before Victoria could answer, the booth door was broken down by a large dark figure. He was wearing a Black trench cloak, with black pants, and his head ornament was the head of an Ursa mouth, helmet. His skin was dark, he had sharp teeth, and his eyes glowed red. In an instant he brought down his fist smashing the table into pieces. Victoria was thrown back by this as she landed on her back. Yang was able to move out of the way in time. Everyone takes notice, of the gigantic monster rampaging in the room and started running away.
"I finally found you huntress!" The Grim yelled.
"Hey! My friend and I were having a conversation buddy." Yang said as her hair flared up.
"YOU'RE HAIR IS ON FIRE!" Victoria screamed, with her eyes wide.
Yang then ran towards the Grim and starts punching it around with her Ember Celica, firing shots out of them. She couldn't hit it as hard as she normally could, since she was in chibi form, but she did manage to deal out some damage towards the Grim.
"Buzz off!" The Grim yelled.
"You're the one who started it!" Yang said, as she then began throwing punches and shots at the Grim.
"Shotgun gauntlets?" Victoria said, shocked at the development.
The Grim was getting annoyed at the little yellow chibi, as she was beating him, and she even winked at one point.
"That's it! I Grand Kuma, shall defeat you. Since you're not connected to your duelist yet, you're still up for grabs." Grand Kuma yelled.
"He's right! I may be an average duelist, but Anna is more in sync with the members of team RWBY, due to the fact she was the first one to come in contact with their leader. Yang may be strong, but her endurance won't last much longer. I have to get her to Anna, and fast." Victoria thought as she then looked for a way to get out.
The front exit was blocked, so they couldn't go out that way. She then saw the window, and thought it was a horrible idea. What other choices did she had?
"Yang! We need to jump!" Victoria yelled, as she picked up a fallen chair.
"What do you mean?" Yang asked, curious of what Victoria had in mind.
Victoria then threw the chair at the window breaking it. Yang saw this, and was surprised at first, but then she cracked a smiled as she knew what Victoria had in mind.
"I see what you mean. Let's do this!" Yang said, coming over to Victoria.
"Now, I have to see what's at the WWWHHHOOOOAAA!" Victoria said, as she was then pushed out the window by Yang.
"Less thinking, more action!" Yang yelled, as she fired a shot at Grand Kuma causing an explosion.
"AAAAWWWWWWW YYYEEEAAAHHHHH!" Yang yelled with excitement.
"TTTTHHHHHIIISSSSSS IIIISSSSS TTTTTTOOOOOO IIINNTTTEEENSE!" Victoria yelled, as she was scared for her life.
Yang managed to stick the landing, as Victoria fell into a large crate of water.
"Nailed it." Yang said, standing back up.
(Present time)
"And that's what happened." Victoria said drying herself off.
Anna and Zack just stood in front of her with blank looks, after hearing all that Victoria has gone through.
"HUNTRESSES! YOU SHALL BE MINE!" Grand Kuma yelled from above.
Everyone turned their attention towards the second floor of the building. Grand Kuma stood in the broken window, with his clothes on fire. He was also really mad. He then jumped into the air, and came crashing down into the ground, causing a shock wave causing Anna, Zack and Victoria to be thrown back. Team RWBY then rushed over.
"You okay Anna?" Ruby said, as Weiss helped her up.
"Yeah, just give me a moment." Anna replied.
"Stay with me Zack." Blake said, helping Zack up.
"Thanks Blake." Zack replied as he rubbed his head.
"So who are you two?" Yang asked, as she helped Victoria get up.
"Name's Anna, this is Zack. And I bet that you're Yang Xiao Long." Anna said looking at Yang.
"What's up?" Zack said as he pointed two fingers at Yang.
"As much as I would like to get to know you, I have to take care of this over grown bear. Victoria, the card!" Anna said directing her attention towards he sister.
Victoria responds by throwing taking the card out of the protector, and throwing at Anna who caught the card and placed it in her deck. Grand Kuma notices this, and realizes that he has to duel Anna to claim the huntresses now.
"I would rather crush you where you stand, but I have no choice but to duel you now!" Grand Kuma yelled, as his left arm morphed into the Grim-Duel disk.
"Uh, Anna. I have to give you credit for standing up to a Grim twice your size. But I seriously doubt you can beat it in a fight. You don't look that strong." Yang said.
"Don't worry Yang. Fights done here are very different, but awesome at the same time. They fight with the card game known as Duel Monsters!" Ruby exclaimed.
"A card game? As much as I like playing card games, it doesn't sound that epic." Yang said, hoping to see some action.
"As silly as it sounds, it is quite interesting in a way, and it is worthy of my attention." Weiss hesitantly admitted.
"Besides, Anna relies on us for help, since we assist her in battle in this game." Blake said as she came over dragging Zack over to the sidelines.
"Alright then. I think I'll give this game a chance. Besides, if Weiss says something is okay, then it has to be great in my book." Yang admitted.
"What makes you say that?" Weiss asked angrily.
"I think it's due to the fact you're an Ice Queen." Zack said as he got up.
"Hey!" Weiss retorted.
Zack then notices the yellow chibi and decides to introduce himself.
"You must be Yang. I'm Zack and its pleasure to meet you. I hope we can get along." Zack said extending his hand for a handshake.
"Nice to see you too Zack. This duel monster game must be something if the Grim are using it." Yang said as she grabbed Zack's hand, and almost crushed it.
"That's…one strong grip you got there." Zack said, as he tried not to cry.
"Oh. Sorry about that kid." Yang said as she let go.
While Zack was blowing on this squeezed hand. Grand Kuma then activated the Barrier of Darkness, trapping Anna, Zack, Victoria and team RWBY within. Anna and Grand Kuma walked to their opposing sides. Anna then attached her D-tablet and her deck to her left arm. The two duelist then drew their five cards as holographic displays then showed up.
"DUEL!" Both players yelled.
Turn 1: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 4000LP vs Grand Kuma: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 5 vs Grand Kuma Hand: 5
"I start things off. Since I control no monsters, I can special summon Junk Forward straight from my hand in attack mode!" Anna declared, placing her card on the disk.
Junk Forward
Level 3: Attribute Earth
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 900 DEF: 1500
Out of no-where a warrior then came running out of a blue hole, as he jumped into the air and landed on his feet. Junk Forward was wearing white-grayish armor with black lines running across his armor parts. He also had a triangular shaped armor piece with armor blades sticking out of his shoulders, and his belt had three red gems; one in the center, and two on his sides. His helmet had a red gem on top with horns coming out of the face guards. What was noticeable was the two boosters on his backs. Yang was surprised of from seeing the summoning. Weiss and Blake thought he was okay. Ruby liked him the most.
"A speed based warrior!" Ruby yelled.
"This is starting to get interesting." Yang said as she had experience playing card games. Everything was okay, until someone came along and ruined it.
"I'll follow it up by summoning RWBY-Soul: Blake Belladonna from my hand in attack mode!" Anna declared, as she placed Blake's tuner card on her disk.
"I'll be right there." Blake said, as she entered the battlefield.
RWBY-Soul: Blake Belladonna
Level 2: Attribute Dark
Beast-Warrior/Tuner/Effect
ATK: 900 DEF: 1500
"Wait. You're a monster too Blake!?" Yang said, as she was shocked.
"Of course I am. I did say that Anna relied on us and vice versa." Blake stated.
"That's not all you'll see." Zack said to Yang.
"Now I tune level 2 Blake Belladonna, with level 3 Junk Forward!" Anna declared extending her hand into the air.
Blake then jumped into the air, turning into two green rings, which then surrounded Junk Forward as he turned into three stars.
"Descend the Black Beast! Fight to protect the world from cruel tyranny!" Anna chanted, as a pillar of light shot through the rings.
2 + 3 = 5
"I SYNCHRO SUMMON! Come forth, Embodiment of Freedom! Black Shadow Huntress: Blake Belladonna!" Anna yelled, playing Blake in her synchro form on the field in defense mode.
Black Shadow Huntress: Blake Belladonna
Level 5: Attribute Dark
Beast-Warrior/Synchro/Effect
ATK: 1900 DEF: 2400
"The effect of RWBY-Soul: Blake Belladonna activates! Now I can summon a Shadow Clone token to the field in defense mode!" Anna declared.
Shadow Clone Token
Level 4: Attribute Dark
Beast-Warrior
ATK: 950 DEF: 1200
The Shadow Clone Token then appeared next to Blake, as they took on a defensive stance, protecting Anna.
"Now that's what I call impressive." Yang said as she whistled in the process.
"I know right! We can do it too." Ruby said.
"The game of duel monsters allows us to fight to the best of our abilities, and Anna is the strategist." Weiss explained.
"Now that's something. Can't wait to join in on the fight!" Yang said as she put her right fist into her left palm.
Back to the duel
"I play two cards face-down and end my turn." Anna said, as she placed two cards face-down on her field.
Turn 2: Grand Kuma
Anna Yuno: 4000LP vs Grand Kuma: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1 vs Grand Kuma: 5
"It's my turn now. I draw!" Grand Kuma declared, as his draw caused a gust of wind to be blown towards Anna.
"To start my turn, I'll summon Battlin' Boxer Headgeared to my field in attack mode!" Grand Kuma declared.
"Wait. Did he say Boxer?" Yang exclaimed.
Battlin' Boxer Headgeared
Level 4: Attribute Fire
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 1000 DEF 1800
To clarify Yang's question, the monster that was summon threw a couple of punches and was in a boxer like battle stance. Headgeared had a muscular body with purple skin, and wore black pants with white lines running across. He was wearing to boxing gloves, red leggings, and had his Head Gear on his head. His face was white and he had two glowing red eyes. Ruby, Weiss and Blake were slightly intimidated by the monster, as it looked ready to pummel someone's face. Yang had a face of a kid in a candy store.
"There is a deck based around Boxers?! This has to be the best game ever! I know what deck I'm going to get if I get a chance to duel. Also his attribute is Fire, just like me!" Yang exclaimed.
Everyone stared at Yang who looking at the monster with starts in her eyes, and had a big goofy grin on her face.
"Yang! That's the enemies' monster. This is no time to be admiring it!" Weiss yelled at Yang.
"Come on! A girl can dream!" Yang yelled back.
Back to the duel.
"I activate Headgeared's special ability. I can now send one Battlin' Boxer monster from my deck to the graveyard. I select Battlin' Boxer Glassjaw." Grand Kuma said, as he sent Glassjaw to the graveyard.
"Next I play the spell card Battlin' Boxer Spirits! By sending the top card of my deck to the graveyard, I can special summon one Battlin' Boxer from graveyard in face-up defense mode. Return to the ring, Battlin' Boxer Glassjaw!" Grand Kuma yelled, bringing back Glassjaw.
Battlin' Boxer Spirits
Spell card: Normal
Battlin' Boxer Spirits showed Headgeared in front, Glassjaw to the right, and another Battlin' Boxer to the left, and all of them were on fire with their eyes glowing intensely. All three of them were surrounding a card that was glowing blue. Yang liked how the card looked as it reminded her the will to keep fighting till you win. Then a burst of fire erupted on Grand Kuma's field as Glassjaw emerged from the fire in defense mode.
Battlin' Boxer Glassjaw
Level 4: Attribute Fire
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 2000 DEF: 0
Glassjaw had green skin and had huge muscles on his upper body. He wore black boxing gloves, black headgear, black footwear, and white shorts. His appearance made him looked like he went to the GYM every single day.
"As strong as he is. A monster with zero defense points in defense mode isn't impressive." Weiss stated as she wasn't too worried.
"He still looks amazing!" Yang yelled.
"And you guys say I overreact at these monsters." Ruby said with a deadpanned tone.
"This isn't the main event yet. Well now it is. I overlay level 4 Headgeared and level 4 Glassjaw!" Grand Kuma declared.
Anna, Zack and Victoria were shocked to hear what Grand Kuma just said. Team RWBY were curious of what the word overlay meant. They were even more surprised as Headgeared and Glassjaw turned into bright red energy representing their attributes, and shot up into the sky as they then crossed each other in the air.
"With these two monsters I build the overlay network!" Grand Kuma yelled.
A black vortex then appeared in front of Grand Kuma, which resembled a Black Hole, as the two red beings of energy went into the hole. This then caused a bright explosion in the vortex.
"I don't like where this is going." Blake said, as she worried what was happening.
"Great shackled warrior, come forth to the ring and destroy anyone who challenges your strength." Grand Kuma chanted.
"I XYZ summon! Appear! Rank 4, Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke!" Grand Kuma declared, as he placed card that was black on his disk.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke
Rank 4: Attribute Fire
Warrior/XYZ/Effect
ATK: 2200 DEF: 2000
From the light stood a warrior who wore the outfit of a Greek solider or a Roman Gladiator and had an iron mask on his face, with eyes glowing red, and short red hair. What was noticeable about this monster was that he was wearing a shackle on his right hand that was connected to his neck, with wood balancers on both sides, and a weight balancer on his back with chains. There also two red orbs revolving around the monster, as if there were planets revolving around the sun. Team RWBY was shocked at the summoning method that Grand Kuma used, as they only know the synchro summoning method.
"What kind of summoning method is that?!" Weiss yelled as she did not see this coming.
Victoria then began to explain to the team RWBY what a XYZ summoning was and somehow pulled a chalk board out of no-where.
"It's known as an XYZ summon. You see it is one of three extra deck summoning methods that some duelist use. The summoning method you four are currently familiar with is Synchro summoning. That is when you use a tuner monster and combine its level with another monster on the field, to synchro summon a monster whose level is equal to the sum of that monster." Victoria explained, using the chalk board to demonstrate.
Zack then took over.
"What Grand Kuma used is another extra deck summoning method known as XYZ summoning. To perform an XYZ summon, you have to combine the appropriate amount and certain types of monsters with the same level and overlay them. This is quite different from most summoning methods, as the monsters are stacked onto of each other rather than going to the graveyard. Then the duelist selects the desire XYZ monster with the same rank as the monsters, and places it top of the stack monsters, and those monsters become its overlay units. Keep in mind that Rank and Level are two different things." Zack said as he demonstrated the summoning technique on the board.
"As awesome as that is, it doesn't change the fact that there is a gigantic boxer on the other side of the field." Ruby said in fear.
"I'll say. He just looks menacing just standing there." Weiss said.
"His looks and summoning methods are awesome! But why did he had to be on the enemy team?" Yang yelled as she was half excited, but half disappointed.
"Even though it's powerful. My defense points are high enough to keep me safe." Blake said, as she was cautious.
"Wasn't expecting an XYZ summon. I better fight carefully." Anna thought to herself.
"If you're done talking, I'll now attack that shadow clone token with Lead Yoke. Go K.O. punch-out!" Grand Kuma declared.
"I play my trap card, Scrap-Iron scarecrow! This card lets me negate one of your attacks. After that, I can set facedown again for another turn." Anna declared activating her trap.
Scrap-Iron Scarecrow
Trap Card: Normal
The trap revealed itself open as it projected the iron scarecrow in front of the token, as Lead Yoke attack was blocked as it then turned face-down once more.
"There are traps in the game too?! This just keeps getting better and better." Yang said with excitement, remembering her times playing her trap cards on a certain board game.
"Hmph. I'll end my turn with a card two cards face-down on my field to end my turn." Grand Kuma stated, as two cards appeared on his field.
Turn 3: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 4000LP vs Grand Kuma: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1 vs Grand Kuma Hand: 2
"It's my turn now. I draw! From my hand I activate the Graceful Charity spell card! I can draw three cards from my deck, as long as I toss out two." Anna declared, as she drew then discarded.
"But I think I'll be little disgraceful with my face-down. I play Disgraceful Charity! With this card, I can add any cards that I have discarded back to my hand." Anna said, activating her face-down.
Disgraceful Charity
Trap Card: Normal
Disgrace full charity showed a black angel with horn on her head and red hair holding a card in her hands. Her skin was blue, she wore a blue dress, with purple eyes and a trident like symbol on her forehead. The angel then emerged from the card and blew red dust at Anna's duel disk, as Anna reclaimed her discarded cards.
"That was smart. Anna didn't had to lose any cards by playing those two charity cards." Weiss said.
"Looks like Anna just got donation from her deck." Yang punned.
(It may not be the best pun, but at least I'm trying): Author note
Everyone, especially Grand Kuma and Anna just stared at Yang. Everything was silent, until Zack started laughing a little.
"Hahahahahaha! That was a good one!" Zack said.
"You actually like my puns? Nice to know there is a person here that appreciates good humor." Yang said, as she never heard anyone laugh that loud, from hearing her puns.
"Mission failed." Ruby said, in a deadpanned tone.
Annoyed, Anna decided to continue her turn, but not before her eye twitched.
"I summon RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose to the field in Attack mode." Anna said, still a little ticked off.
"It's my time to shine! Wish me luck sis." Ruby said as she join the battlefield.
RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose
Level 3: Attribute Wind
Warrior/Tuner/Effect
ATK 1400 DEF: 900
"I now tune level 3 Ruby Rose with my level 4 shadow clone token!" Anna announced.
Ruby then jumped into the air, turning into three green rings, which then surrounded the shadow clone, turning it into four stars.
"Grand rose that scatters through the air. Descend to the battlefield and create a new hope!" Anna chanted, as a pillar of light shot through the rings.
3 + 4 = 7
"I SYNCHRO SUMMON! Come forth! Embodiment of Hope! Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose!" Anna declared playing Ruby's synchro form on her disk.
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose
Level 7: Attribute Wind
Warrior/Synchro/Effect
ATK: 2500 DEF 2000
Ruby then appeared on the battlefield as she wielded her Crescent Rose, in her battle stance.
"Nice of you to join the battle Ruby. I could use the help." Blake said smiling.
"Don't worry Blake. I got you covered." Ruby said.
"Due to the effect of RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose in my graveyard, Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose gains 300 extra attack points for this turn. I'll then switch Black-Shadow Huntress: Blake Belladonna to attack mode." Anna declared, as Ruby powered up, and Blake prepared for battle.
Black Shadow Huntress: Blake Belladonna: Defense Mode to Attack Mode
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 2500ATK + 300ATK = 2800ATK
"Now, I attack Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke with Blake Belladonna!" Anna declared.
Blake then on instinct ran towards Lead Yoke. She then slashed at him with several sword swings as Lead Yoke guarded against them. Lead Yoke then brought down his left hand and manage to land a hit on Blake.
"BLAKE! What was Anna thinking!?" Yang yelled in horror as she saw her friend got pulverized.
"Don't worry Yang. It's all part of Anna's plan." Zack said smiling.
"I suggest you take a closer look at our friend." Weiss said, as she smiled as well.
"Seeing you smile seems logically impossible to me." Victoria said to Weiss.
"Hey! There is nothing wrong with the way I smile!" Weiss yelled back.
"There's nothing wrong with it. It's just weird to see you smiling." Zack said, with a nervous smile on his face."
"Quiet you!" Weiss snapped at Zack.
As Lead Yoke thought he destroyed Blake, the body then vanished as if it were a shadow, surprising the monster.
"When Blake attacks a monster with 2000 or more attack points, all battle damage is turned to zero, and she is placed in my spell and trap card zone, equipping to your monster as well." Anna declared.
Lead Yoke then had the gambol shroud tied to his left arm, as Blake pulled him down with all her might.
"Looks likes Anna and Blake got that Lead Yoke tied up at the moment." Zack said snickering.
"Grand Kuma is going to get stringed along in this fight." Yang said as she snickered as well.
The two then high fived each other as they laughed at their puns. Everyone just stared at them. Even the Lead Yoke was staring at them.
"Do you have to deal with that every day?" Lead Yoke asked Blake.
"You have no idea." Blake said with a deadpanned look.
"Getting back on track now! Ruby, attack Lead Yoke with Crescent Slash!" Anna yelled.
"I'm on it Anna. Prepare to be beaten." Ruby said as she rushed forward.
"Blake's ability now activates! When the monster equipped with her gets attacked by Huntress monster, that monster loses attack points equal to halve of the attacking monster's original attack points!" Anna yelled, with her arm thrusted out.
Blake then converted her Gambol Shroud to Gun form and shot Lead Yoke multiple times, as he was then weaken.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke: 2200ATK – 1250ATK = 950 ATK
"I play Lead Yoke's special ability! When a Battlin' Boxer monster would be destroyed by card effect or battle, I can use one overlay unit, and negate that destruction." Grand Kuma yelled.
"Overlay units are said to be the soul of a XYZ monster, and they use those souls to use their abilities to their full potential." Zack said, with a serious tone.
One of the overlay units was then absorbed into the right arm shackled, and Lead Yoke was surrounded by a blue aura. Weiss notices something. The right shackle on Lead Yoke's body seemed to have a crack in it.
"That's strange. I don't remember seeing a crack there before. Is my mind playing tricks on me?" Weiss thought.
"You still going to take damage from my attack!" Ruby yelled as she brought down her scythe.
Ruby then brought down her scythe, causing a shock wave, damaging Grand Kuma. Lead Yoke was still standing due to its ability.
Grand Kuma: 4000LP – 1850LP = 2150LP
"How do you like that? This is what team RWBY is capable of!" Ruby said proudly.
"Is that so? Then I have nothing to worry about!" Grand Kuma said smiling.
"Since I took battle damage this turn, I can summon Battlin' Boxer Veil from my hand in defense mode! Also, when he is summon this way, I gain life points equal to the damage I took." Grand Kuma declared.
"What!?" Ruby yelled in disbelief, as Anna gritted her teeth.
Battlin' Boxer Veil
Level 4: Attribute Fire
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 0 DEF: 2000
Battlin' Boxer veil then appeared, as he wore red leg armor and red chest armor. His lower body was strapped with a brown brace, and his face was covered up by a mask with a white mask with four eye slits. On both of his arms were large semi-circle disk guards. Veil then glowed blue as, he then restored Grand-Kuma's lost life.
Grand Kuma: 2150LP + 1850LP = 4000LP
"Aw come on! Not only he wasn't destroyed, but he got his all of his life points back!" Ruby complained as her hard work was for nothing.
"To make matters worse, Blake can't come back to the field until Lead Yoke is destroyed." Anna said, as she realized Blake was stuck in her spell and trap card zone.
"It's about to get worse. Whenever Lead Yoke loses an overlay unit, his attacks points increase by 800." Grand Kuma yelled.
Lead Yoke then, puts all of his strength into his right arm, and then breaks the weaken shackle, allowing him to fight with two hands now.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke: 2200ATK + 800ATK = 3000ATK
"I hate it when I'm right! Lead Yoke is now stronger than Ruby!" Weiss yelled in horror seeing Yoke's attack point's rise.
"A monster who can't be destroyed by using its effect and just gets stronger in the process. I really have mixed feeling about this." Yang said, as she was impressed by the monster's ability, but frighten that Ruby might get knocked out.
"I play two cards face-down and end my turn." Anna said, playing her cards face-down.
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 2800ATK – 300ATK = 2500ATK
Turn 4: Grand Kuma
Anna Yuno: 4000LP vs Grand Kuma 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1 vs Grand Kuma Hand: 1
"My move now. I draw!" Grand Kuma declared, as smiled at the card he has in his hands.
"I activate the ability of Battlin' Boxer Shadow from my hand! By sending one overlay unit from a Battlin' Boxer XYZ monster to the graveyard, I can special summon this card from my hand. Enter the ring Shadow!" Grand Kuma yelled.
Battlin' Boxer Shadow
Level 4: Attribute Fire
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 1800 DEF: 1400
An overlay unit from Lead Yoke was then sent into a black-portal in the ground, and then Battlin' Boxer then emerged from the portal. He then moved around, as he fazed in and out like a shadow, throwing several punches in the process. The boxer was all black, and really dark gray in some areas, as he wore blue pants, with blue lines running across it and he had blue eyes. He also wore black headgear, with black boxing gloves and bandages on his arms, and waist. His upper body was also exposed revealing his muscles. Blake slightly blushed at the sight of this monster, as he looked extremely cool to her, and he moved like a shadow, just like her. Everyone then realized that Lead Yoke lost an overlay unit which spell bad news.
"Since Lead Yoke lost an overlay unit, it gains another 800 attack points." Grand Kuma declared.
Everyone watched in horror as Lead Yoke broke the final restraints that he had on him, as he was at full power and he stood with his back straight.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke: 3000ATK + 800ATK = 3800ATK
"That monster has muscles on its muscles!" Ruby screamed in horror.
"So this is the power of XYZ monsters. It's scary, but yet incredible." Weiss stated as she just stared eyes-wide at the monster.
"Man, that monster ripped! But yet attractive at the same time." Yang said, as she smile at the monster for a brief moment.
"I'm not done yet! I now overlay level 4 Battlin' Boxer Shadow and level 4 Battlin' Boxer Veil, to build overlay network!" Grand Kuma declared.
"Another XYZ summon!" Anna said in fear.
The two monsters then turned into red energy as they then went up into the air crossing each other, and then went into a black vortex on the ground. A white explosion then erupted from the vortex.
"I XYZ summon another Lead Yoke!" Grand Kuma declared.
Another Lead Yoke appeared on the field but this one was shackled.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke (2)
Rank 4: Attribute Fire
Warrior/XYZ/Effect
ATK: 2200 DEF: 2000
"And just when one wasn't enough." Anna said sarcastically.
"My thoughts exactly Anna." Blake said.
"I now attack Ruby Rose with my strongest Lead Yoke! Go K.O. Punch-out!" Grand Kuma declared.
The unshackled Lead Yoke then began running towards Ruby, and Ruby was sweating bullets as she did not want to get punched in the face by that monster. Everyone thought Anna would use her scrap iron scarecrow, but she had something else in mind.
"I activate one my other face-downs. Huntress Reversal Tactics!" Anna declared activating her trap.
"That's the card I gave to Anna this morning! A Huntress support card." Zack said.
"So there are cards that are exclusive to us. That is quite interesting." Weiss said, intrigued of what this card does.
"I think something awesome is about to happen." Yang said smiling from hearing the name of the card.
Huntress Reversal Tactics
Trap Card: Normal
The card showed a Beowolf attacking a shadow clone that was created by Blake, and the real Blake about to slice the Beowolf in to, as she was about to bring her Gambol Shroud in blade form down.
"Whenever you attack a huntress monster, this cards negates your attack. After that, the huntress monster is one attacking instead! As an added bonus, the Huntress monster gains 200 attack points for this battle." Anna yelled.
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 2500 ATK + 200 ATK = 2700 ATK
"What's the point? The outcome is still going to be the same anyway." Grand Kuma yelled.
"Not quite. Remember, Ruby is the one attacking this time, not your monster. Team RWBY's abilities can only be activated if they're the attackers. So my trap card lets them attack instead." Anna explained.
"I didn't really get it." Yang said scratching her head.
Victoria then explained it to anyone who didn't understood the card.
"It's quite simple if you think about it. You see the trap card Anna played first negates the attack from the opponent. What it does next, is that it causes the monster who was just attacked to fight back, or in this case, attack the monster who had its attack negated. In other words, Ruby is attacking on Grand Kuma's turn." Victoria explained.
"There is even more to this card. Our abilities are activated whenever we battle a monster 2000 or more attack points. So this card lets us use our abilities on the opponent's turn." Weiss said, as she smiled.
"I activate Ruby Rose's special ability! Since she is attacking a monster with 2000 or more attack points, she can battle another monster! I choose your other Lead-Yoke!" Anna yelled, as she pointed her finger at the second Lead Yoke.
"Not to mention Blake's ability activates as well. Whenever the monster she's equipped to battles a huntress monster, that monster loses attack points equal to halve of the original attack points of the attacking monster." Anna yelled as she smiled, with her arm extended.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke (1): 3800 ATK – 1250 ATK = 2550ATK.
Blake then fired multiple shots at the Lead Yoke she had tied up, halving its attack points. Ruby then turned into a flurry of Rose petals attacking both Lead Yokes, as they tried to fend off Ruby. She then slashed at them a couple of times, before moving out of the way. Blake also used her blade to bring down Lead Yoke (1), allowing Ruby to fire several shots at it.
"I activate my second Lead Yoke's ability, I use one overlay unit to negate its destruction." Grand Kuma declared.
The overlay unit then was absorbed into one of the shackles. Lead Yoke (2) then had a blue glow as Ruby's scythe couldn't make a dent in it.
"That won't stop Ruby from destroying your other Yoke along with damaging you!" Anna yelled.
It was true. Lead Yoke (1) was then destroyed as he was cut in halve by Ruby's scythe. Ruby then turned her scythe into its gun form firing multiple shots at the second Lead Yoke. This caused multiple shock waves damaging Grand Kuma. However, since Ruby attack using her effect, all battle damage was halved.
"That's my sister for you! Awesome as ever!" Yang shouted with excitement.
Grand Kuma: 4000LP – 75LP – 250LP = 3675LP
"Since Lead Yoke lost an overlay unit, it gains 800 attack points." Grand Kuma stated.
Lead Yoke's right shackle then broke as it got more powerful.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke (2): 2200ATK + 800ATK = 3000ATK
"At this time, since the monster that Blake was equipped to was destroyed, I can special summon her from the graveyard with her effects negated till the end of my next turn, and Ruby's attack points return to normal." Anna said, as Blake returned to field in defense mode, and Ruby's attack went back to normal.
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 2700ATK – 200ATK = 2500ATK
"That won't stop me from attacking with my other Lead Yoke! K.O. Punch out!" Grand Kuma yelled.
"I still have my Scarp-Iron Scarecrow to negate your attack!" Anna yelled.
The scarecrow then appeared in front of Ruby ready to block the attack as Ruby felt safe. Grand Kuma then smirked.
"I activate my facedown trap card! Trap Jammer! When you activate a trap card during the battle phase, Trap Jammer negates that card and destroys it." Grand Kuma declared.
Trap Jammer
Trap Card: Counter
Trap Jammer showed a magic circle binding a bear trap. A circle the appeared around the scarecrow destroying it. Anna then realized something.
"You had that card on your field ever since your turn began. So why didn't you use it to stop my other trap card?" Anna asked, confused.
"She's right, if he used that trap card, his other Lead Yoke would have survived." Weiss stated.
"It's quite simple. I knew if I attacked, you would negate the attack of the first Lead Yoke, with that scarecrow. I wasn't counting on you activating that other card, but little did you know, playing that card only made me stronger. Because of it, I was able to use my other Lead Yoke's ability to increase's its attack points. Plus, it let me get rid of your pesky Blake card, and she can't use her effects till the end of your next turn. So I waited to use my trap until now." Grand Bear said, waving his finger at Anna.
"Man. Not only this guy is strong, he's also smart." Yang said, as she gritted her teeth.
"He timed that trap perfectly. I guess we all underestimated him." Weiss said with contempt.
"And the worst part is that Ruby is going to get destroyed!" Zack said with a worried look on his face.
Lead Yoke bypassed the trap card, and charged at Ruby. Ruby tried to fight back by firing several shots at Lead Yoke, but the boxer weaved its way around the bullets, and then disarmed Ruby. He then jabbed her in the stomach knocking her down on the ground as she flat on her back. Lead Yoke then climbed up a nearby fencing, and jump off said fence, finishing Ruby off with a downward elbow strike, in the gut. It was very unpleasant for Ruby.
"So this is what boxing feels like." Ruby squeaked as she then shattered, or exploded.
Anna Yuno: 4000LP – 500LP = 3500LP
"RUBY! YOU MONSTER! I DON'T CARE HOW AWESOME YOU ARE! NO ONE GETS AWAY WITH KILLING MY LITTLE SISTER!" Yang angrily yelled, as her eyes turned red for a moment.
"She's not actually dead you know. She's a spirit, so she's just resting in the graveyard." Victoria stated.
"I DON'T CARE! I WANT TO BEAT THIS GUY SO BADLY NOW!" Yang yelled, still angry about her sister's destruction.
"I now end my turn with a card face-down." Grand Kuma said.
Turn 5: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 3500LP vs Grand Kuma: 3675LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1 vs Grand Kuma Hand: 0
"SHOW HIM NO MERCY ANNA!" Yang yelled.
"As much as I want to, I can't right now. I got one face-down on my field, Blake in defense mode, a monster-card and a trap-card in hand. If I use the trap on Blake, it wouldn't do much. So I better lay low until Lead Yoke disappears. Man this is hard." Anna thought to herself.
"I play a monster face-down in defense mode, and one card face-down. That ends my turn." Anna reluctantly said.
"I guess Anna can't do much with her hand. She has to play defensively if she wants to win, until she draws the card she needs." Weiss stated.
Yang growled a little. She wanted to see Grand Kuma pulverized for what he did to Ruby. No one was allowed to hurt her little sister. She then calm down just a bit, but was still a tad bit angry. She really needed to hit something.
Blake was more worried. The Lead Yoke's attack strength towered over her defense strength. Although she was worry about being destroyed, she would willingly protect Anna, in order to buy her time.
"Sorry I have to leave you out there Blake." Anna said.
"Just as long as you find a way to beat this guy, everything will be fine." Blake replied, in a serious tone.
Turn 6: Grand Kuma
Anna Yuno: 3500LP vs Grand Kuma: 3675LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 0 vs Grand Kuma Hand: 0
"It's my move! Draw!" Grand Kuma yelled, smiling at the card he got.
"I first activate the one my face-downs. I play XYZ Reborn! This card lets me revive a XYZ monster that is in my graveyard, and XYZ Reborn becomes an overlay unit for the monster. I choose my other Lead Yoke." Grand Kuma declared, as a black portal appeared in front of him.
XYZ Reborn
Trap Card: Normal
XYZ Reborn showed an orange and yellow emblem with several metal like wings in the front, studded with blue gems, and had a blue ring circling around it. It resemble that of a space key. Lead Yoke (1) then emerged from the portal and was ready to re-enter the ring. XYZ reborn then turned into an orb of energy, and circled around Lead Yoke (1) becoming and Overlay unit.
"Guess it's double the trouble, and the Lead Yoke's are going to take first place! To be honest, I don't if what I said is a pun." Zack yelled.
"Now's not the time for puns Zack, I really want to have at those Yokes for hurting my sister!" Yang yelled.
"Yang is known to have a short-temper at times. So don't make her mad if we get out of this." Weiss whispered to Zack.
Lead Yoke had plans to finish off Anna Yuno.
"I play spell card XYZ gift! Since I control two XYZ monsters on my field, I can send two overlay units to the grave yard to draw two cards from my deck. So not only will I draw cards, but my Lead Yokes will also power up in the process!" Grand Kuma yelled.
XYZ Gift
Spell card: Normal
XYZ Gift showed a present box that had a bright orange light shooting through it, as it was circled by two overlay units that were red and blue. The overlay units then detached from the Lead Yokes and went to Grand Kuma's deck, causing it to glow. As Grand Kuma drew his two cards, each Lead Yoke powered up.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke (1): 2200ATK + 800ATK = 3000ATK
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke (2): 3000ATK + 800ATK = 3800ATK
Everyone was worried that now Grand Kuma had more cards in hand, and two monsters with over 3000 attack points. It was about to get worse.
"I play the spell card graceful charity from my hand. You're familiar with this card, so instead of explaining, I'll just do it." Grand Kuma said, drawing three cards and then ditching two.
"I think the weather is getting a bit stormy now. Well lightning will strike with the help of my spell card! I play the spell card Raigeki! This card destroys all monsters you control on your field. So say goodbye to your monsters." Grand Kuma yelled.
Raigeki
Spell Card: Normal
The card showed a deadly lightning bolt. Storm clouds then began to gather over Anna's field, as a lightning bolt shot out of the sky, striking both Blake and Anna's facedown monster, destroying them. Blake didn't get a chance to scream, as the lightning made quick work of her.
"FIRST RUBY, NOW BLAKE! THIS GUY IS SO GOING TO GET IT NOW!" Yang angrily yelled.
"Relax Yang. Anna has two face-downs, and from experience, I sure Anna is safe." Weiss said, with a slight grudge against traps.
"Those trap cards do pose a threat to me. Well, until now. I play my other face-down, Trap Stun! This card negates all other trap effects on the field for this turn. Too bad so sad." Grand Kuma said.
Trap Stun
Trap Card: Normal
Trap Stun showed a trap card shooting out three bolts of electricity at three other trap cards nullifying their effects. The card then shot out to bolts of electricity paralyzing Anna's trap cards for a turn. Everyone was horrified that there was a card that stop trap cards. Ruby meanwhile watching from the Graveyard, and recovering from her attack, wanted that card the next time she went up against Yang.
"With nothing in my way, my Lead Yokes will pulverize you! The Lead Yoke with 3000 ATK points will strike first! Grand Upper Cut!" Grand Kuma yelled.
The first Lead Yoke started running up to Anna, and then deliver an upper cut sending her flying off the ground as she landed on her back.
"AAAAGGGGHHHH! *cough*" Anna screamed and coughed as that last attack was severe.
"Come on Anna! Get up girl, you can do it!" Zack said trying to encourage Anna.
Anna Yuno: 3500LP – 3000LP = 500LP
"The final blow! I attack with the second Lead Yoke! Grand Upper-cut!" Grand Kuma yelled.
The Lead Yoke then began charging at Anna, and everyone just stared with anxiety that Anna was about to lose. In the graveyard, Ruby and Blake were watching the duel as they were recovering from their attacks. Ruby had an ice pack on her stomach, and Blake was twitching a bit from the electricity. They then watched in horror as the last attack was about to hit. That was until they saw a black pig running across the black void towards the fight.
"Was that a pig?" Blake asked, surprised of what she saw.
"I guess?" Ruby said, as she was confused on what a pig was doing in the graveyard.
Anna then used all the strength she had to activate her countermeasure.
"I play the effect of Bacon Saver in my graveyard!" Anna yelled, as black portal appeared in front of her.
A small black pig with a yellow line on its body then emerged from the graveyard.
Bacon Saver
Level 2: Attribute Dark
Zombie/Effect
ATK: 700 DEF: 600
"A PIG!" Everyone screamed, as they eyes went blank, and their jaws dropped.
"You sent him to the graveyard with your spell card. So by banishing Bacon Saver from my graveyard, I can negate any occurring attack, like that Lead Yoke with 3800 attack points. Do your thing Bacon Saver!" Anna said, pointing her finger at it.
The Bacon Saver then ran towards the charging Lead Yoke, and then somehow spat out its own skeleton, grossing everyone out, which then collided with Lead Yoke, as he was force to fall back.
"I'll never look at pigs the same way again." Weiss said, shocked at what the pig just did.
"That monster is sure dedicated to its name. Saving the Bacon of others." Yang said.
"Arrrgh. Play one card face down to end my turn." Grand Kuma said, as his attack was stopped, by a pig.
Turn 7: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 500LP vs Grand Kuma: 3675LP
Anna Yuno Hand 0: vs Grand Kuma Hand: 0
Anna found it hard to stand up. Being in a darkness barrier made the damage intense. She had a couple of bruises in some areas. But she manage to pick herself back up, and keep going. She then started smiling with face that said "I'm going to win".
"I don't get it what is with you human. How are you smiling when the chances of winning are low?" Grand Kuma asked confused.
"Well, I think it's because I'm having a great time dueling you." Anna replied.
"What!? I just hit you full force a Lead Yoke, and you call that fun?" Grand Kuma said confused.
"Don't get me wrong. I would rather fight without darkness thing, but dueling is what gets my blood pumping. It's also like my stress reliever. Besides from the fact I might die if I lose." Anna said, trying to support herself.
"Come to think of it. You did say Anna has the tendency to freak out at in stressful situations. How come she isn't freaking right now?" Weiss asked Zack.
"It's quite complicated. Dueling to Anna, is like the one thing that helps her calm her nerves, or rather excite them, canceling out her freak out emotions." Zack explained.
"Also, no matter how hard you hit, a duelist always gets back up on his feet. So don't expect me to hold back, just because you got most of my life points." Anna said, as she finally stood straight.
Yang liked the way how this girl think. Just keep getting back up till you're out of energy or until your win. A lot of people didn't agree with that logic, but it was good logic to her.
"This girl got spunk." Yang said, smiling at her.
"I believe it's my turn. I draw! To start my comeback, I play the spell card Pot of Greed! Now I can draw two more cards. Here goes nothing." Anna said, and thought.
Anna then placed her faith in the next two cards she drew. When she saw then she wasn't disappointed.
"Hey Yang. As much as I don't say it, but want to finish this duel off with…a Yang?" Anna hesitantly said, trying to force a smile on her face.
"Now were talking! Just get me in there and I'll beat the Yokes." Yang punned.
Anna tried to ignore the last pun, and then got in her dueling stance.
"Time to go beyond the limit! I activate my face-down, Descending Lost Star! This card revives a Synchro monster from my graveyard in defense mode, with zero defense points, one level lower and its effects negated. So come on back Ruby!" Anna declared.
Descending Lost Star
Trap Card: Normal
Descending Lost Star showed a quadrupedal machine like monster that appear to be technologically advance. A black portal then appeared from the graveyard, as Ruby came back to the field in defense mode.
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 2000DEF to 0DEF
7 – 1 = Level 6
"Thanks for bringing me back Anna, but I'm not sure if I'll be much help in this condition." Ruby said.
"Don't worry, you aren't going to be alone, for long. Since I control a Huntress monster on my field, I can special summon RWBY-Soul: Yang Xiao Long from my hand in attack mode!"
RWBY-Soul: Yang Xiao Long
Level 1: Attribute Fire
Warrior/Tuner/Effect
ATK: 500 DEF: 500
Yang then used her gauntlets to launch herself into the battlefield as she held up two fingers for Victory in her hand.
"Yang! You're here! You look quite cute being that size." Ruby happily said.
"I guess. But don't worry Ruby, your big sister is here to help you." Yang said, smiling at Ruby.
"Thanks sis!" Ruby said hugging her tiny older sister, almost crushing her.
"Ruby. Can you let go of me please?" Yang said, as she was able to endure most of the crushing hug.
"I then summon my Tuningware to the field in attack mode!" Anna said, placing another monster next to Ruby.
Tuningware
Level 1: Attribute Light
Machine/Effect
ATK: 100 DEF: 300
Tuningware was small little monster that had wire like arms and legs, with an orange body, that was white in the middle. He also wore a yellow scarf, along with a cooking pan on its head, with glowing green eyes.
"Tuningware reminds me of you Ruby, when you played superhero by putting a pan on your head." Yang said, teasing Ruby.
Ruby blushed and smiled a little remembering that one time, she dressed up as a superhero.
"I'm not impressed. Your comeback is a joke! What can you do with those weak monsters?" Grand Kuma said.
"I should let you know something. You been standing to close a flame that burn even hotter than the sun." Anna said.
"Huh?" Grand Kuma said, slightly worry now.
(Play Zexal Sound 4: Duelist Burning Soul) or (Play I Burn)
"Let me show you instead! I tune Level 1 Yang Xiao Long, with Level 1 Tuningware and level 6 Ruby Rose!" Anna said as she extended her arm into the sky.
Yang then launched herself into the sky turning into one green ring. Ruby and Tuningware were then surrounded by the Green ring as their orange outlined bodies turned into a total of seven stars.
"Great burning soul that rampages in battle! Ignite the path to victory!" Anna chanted, as a pillar of light shot through the ring.
1 + 1 + 6 = 8
"I Synchro Summon! Enter the battle! Embodiment of Blazing Spirit! Yellow Flame Huntress: Yang Xiao Long!" Anna yelled placing her new synchro on the field.
Yellow Flame Huntress: Yang Xiao Long
Level 8: Attribute Fire
Warrior/Synchro/Effect
ATK: 2800 DEF 1900
Yang came crashing down, as she put her fists together, smiling. She then stood on the battlefield as a teenage girl with purple eyes, wearing a tan vest with gold piping over a yellow-cut crop top with a black crest that resembles a burning heart. The vest has puffy cap sleeves with black cuffs. She also wore a brown belt with a buckle, a pouch, and a small banner like object. She also wore black shorts under her belt, which resembles a pleated skirt in the back, with and orange scarf. Her foot wear, are brown knee-high platform boots, with orange socks of different length. She also had long blond hair, which is a bit messy, but beautiful in a way.
She then had her bracelets extend forming two gauntlet shotgun weapons known as the Ember Celica, as she then got in her battle stance.
"Now this is more like it. I was a bit worried when I saw my level was one at tuner form." Yang said as she flicked her wrist.
"Due to Tuningware's ability, since he was used for a synchro summoning, I can draw one card. And it's a good one. I now play the equip spell card Assault Armor! I can only play it if I only control one warrior type monster on my field, and that monster gains 300 attack points." Anna explained.
Assault Armor
Spell Card: Equip
Assault Armor showed warrior being amped up and glowing with an orange aura. Weiss then notices something about the card.
"That monster on the card. He looks just like him." Weiss said.
Yellow Flame Huntress: Yang Xiao Long: 2800ATK + 300ATK = 3100ATK
"Three hundred attack points won't be enough to stop me. And I still have my face down. Sakuretsu Armor." Grand Kuma said and thought.
"I activate Assault Armor's other ability! By sending it to the graveyard, the monster that was equipped with it can attack twice for this turn." Anna declared.
When Assault Armor was sent to the graveyard, Yang's body was surround by an orange aura, as she felt more energized then before.
Yellow Flame Huntress: Yang Xiao Long: 3100ATK – 300ATK = 2800ATK
"I feel like I can take on an entire army!" Yang shouted, as she ready herself to attack.
"I now attack the Lead Yoke with the highest attack point!" Anna declared.
"Wait! Yang has lower attack points! Why is she attacking?" Zack screamed.
Anna and Yang were ready to fight.
"I activate Yang's ability! When she attacks a monster with 2000 or more attack points, I can destroy any spell or trap card, and if it activates, I can negate it." Anna declared.
Yang then fired a shot from her gauntlet destroying Grand Kuma's face-down. He was shocked at first, but regained his composure.
"So what! My Lead Yoke is stronger than your Huntress." Grand Kuma said.
Anna only just smiled.
"Yang has another ability. This one activates when she battles a monster with 3000 or more attack points! Since the Lead Yoke I'm attacking has 3800 attack points, Yang gains attack points equal to halve of the difference of 4000 and my current lifepoints. Since I have 500LP right now, and that makes the difference from my original Life points 3500. Meaning Yang's attack point's rise by 1750." Anna declared.
Yellow Flame Huntress: Yang Xiao Long: 2800 ATK + 1750 ATK = 4550 ATK
"Yang's attack points are higher than Lead Yoke's! She can beat it now!" Zack yelled with excitement.
Yang's eyes then turned red, as her hair flared up. She then charged at Lead Yoke and starts attacking him. Lead Yoke evades multiple punches and threw some of his attacks back at Yang. The two than began to trade punches as their fists collides with the other's.
"No matter! I will activate the ability of the Battlin' Boxer Counterpunch I discard to the graveyard. Now by banishing it, Lead Yoke gains another 1000 attack points!" Grand Kuma declared.
Battlin' Boxer Counterpunch
Level 3: Attribute Fire
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 0 DEF: 1100
A black portal then appeared from the ground, and another Boxer monster appeared. He wore a Blue headgear, and blue boxing gloves. His face was covered up by an orange visor, and his upper body had braces, as he wore black shoulder guards, two black gauntlets, and with and black pants. He also had a sharp blade like item attached to his right arm. Counterpunch then send a shock wave towards Lead Yoke powering him up. Lead Yoke then began dodge and block most of Yang's attack as he began to fight back. Yang also had boxing knowledge, as she then step back and dodge and blocked most of Lead Yoke's attacks, and struck back when she could. Everyone watched the intense fight unfold as two boxer based monsters were duking it out. It was quite an amazing scene.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke (2): 3800ATK + 1000ATK = 4800ATK
"Nice try, but I play my final face-down! Fiery Fervor! This card equips to Yang, and now whenever she battles a monster whose attack points are higher than its original attack strength, Yang's original attack points are doubled!" Anna declared, as she had a smile of confidence.
Fiery Fervor
Trap Card: Normal
Fiery Fervor showed a man surround in flames as four rings surrounded him. The card then shot out four rings, and pairs of two then attached to Yang's gauntlets. Yang then let out a battle cry as she then burst into even hotter flames, as her hair burned even brighter than before, and her eyes glowed even more intensely.
Yellow Flame Huntress: Yang Xiao Long: 4550ATK + 2800ATK = 7350ATK
"7350 ATTACK POINTS!" Grand Kuma yelled, as he was in shock seeing attack points that high.
"Man. Yang sure is hot." Zack said, as he was fanning himself with a fan.
"Go for it Yang! Show him what team RWBY is made of!" Ruby cheered from the graveyard.
Yang felt even more powerful than before, as she then began striking Lead Yoke with multiple consecutive strikes. Lead Yoke tried to block the attacks, but his guard was broken when Yang gave him an uppercut. She then brought down her right fist smashing it into Lead Yoke's face. Lead Yoke was then destroyed in the explosion, causing damage to Grand Kuma.
"THIS IS FOR HURTING MY SISTER!" Yang yelled, as she destroyed Lead Yoke, causing him to explode.
Grand Kuma: 3675LP – 2550LP = 1125LP
"We're not done yet! Thanks to my assault armor, Yang can make two attacks this turn!" Anna said, while holding up two fingers.
Yang then charged at the remaining Lead Yoke, propelling herself using her gauntlets. Grand Kuma had one final card to play.
"I activate the ability of the Necro Gardna I discarded! By banishing him from my graveyard, I can negate your attack." Grand Kuma desperately yelled.
Necro Gardna
Level 3: Attribute Dark
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 600 DEF: 1300
A phantom like image of Necro Gardna then appeared between Yang and the second Lead Yoke. He had silver armaments on his legs, arms, and the front of his chest. He also wore sharp shoulder pads that were red. His face was also covered up by a red metal mask, and he had long white hair.
"That isn't going to happen, because we're going to take you down like a fever! I activate the effect of RWBY-Soul: Yang Xiao Long in my graveyard. Whenever a Huntress would have its attack negated, I can banish this card from my graveyard, to negate that card effect." Anna declared.
Anna' graveyard then began to shine, as Yang's tuner form came out as a yellow spirit. The yellow spirits then flew towards Necro Gardna at high speeds, and caused an explosion as they collided. When the smoke cleared, Yang now fired up continued her attacked, as she then winked before smashing the final Lead Yoke.
"AND THAT WAS FOR BARBECUING MY PARTNER!" Yang yelled, as she finally avenged her friends.
"Again. They aren't dead Yang. They aren't dead." Weiss said, in a monotone voice.
The final explosion caused Grand Kuma life points to drop to zero as yelled in pain.
"AAAAAGGGUUUGGGHHHHHH! YOU WILL ALL PAY FOR THIS!" Grand Kuma screamed as he then disappeared.
(End whatever song you decided to play)
With that, the barrier of darkness disappeared, revealing the night sky. Anna then sat down on the ground as she took in a deep breath. She never expected the duel to heat up that much. Ruby and Blake then reappeared in their tuner forms, as they finally recovered from the attack. Yang then came over and extended her hand.
"Come on Anna. You're a winner, and you should be standing up, not sitting down. I never had a battle like that before, and especially been that heated up before. I can say that this duel monsters game certainly is something." Yang said smiling.
"Yeah, it sure is." Anna said, as she grabbed Yang's hand.
She stumbled around a bit, till Victoria came and helped her up.
"Easy there Anna. You've been through a lot, you can rest easy now." Victoria said to Anna, only to find her sleeping.
"YOU WERE SO AWESOME YANG! The way you were on fire and how you went toe to toe against two Lead Yokes was amazing!" Ruby screamed as she held onto her sister's arm.
"You always manage to impress us every single time. It's very normal and accurate of you." Blake said walking up to the gang.
"I have admit that I'm quite impressed with your performance. It was quite a spectacle." Weiss said, as she smiled quite a bit.
"Thanks guys! You all know I always bring a hundred percent when comes to fighting." Yang said.
"Well! I guess we can wrap up this night and call it quits." Zack said smiling, as he was ready to go back to the Yuno's house.
However, Zack accidentally tripped over a small rock as he lost his balance, and fell on top of Yang's back. He quickly then got up, and got on his knees apologizing.
"I'm so sorry Yang please forgive me!" Zack said, bowing over and over again.
"Don't sweat it Zack. I mean, what kind of man wouldn't…fall…for…me?" Yang said slowly.
Zack didn't know what was going on. Ruby, Weiss and Blake had horrified looks on their faces.
"Uh, Zack. Your hand." Ruby said, as she was scarred.
"What about it. It looks fine to me." Zack said holding his left hand up.
"Your other hand Zack." Ruby said pointing to his other hand.
When Zack looked at it, he saw he was holding several small strands of yellow hair. He was confused at first, until he saw Yang eyes glowing red, and her hair lightning up. He then remembered that he was told that Yang didn't like it when people ruin her hair.
"Rest in peace Zack. I'll always remember you." Ruby said, holding up some flowers.
"We'll make sure Anna will always remember you. Do have a will you would like us to hear about?" Weiss said.
"You lived a wonderful young life Zack." Blake said, praying for him.
"WHY ARE YOU GUYS ACTING LIKE I'M ABOUT TO DIE!" Zack yelled.
"YOU'RE GOING TO PAY ZACKERY!" Yang yelled.
"I suggest you start running Zack." Victoria said calmly.
Zack then made a run for it, as he was then chased by an angry Yang, in her battle form.
"I'LL MAKE YOU CRY, YOU HAIR YANKER!" Yang yelled.
"I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR THIS!" Zack yelled as he ran away from Yang.
Zack did survive the wrath of Yang as she did converted back to chibi form. This however didn't prevent the painful smack down he got when Yang caught up to him. All of his organs and bones were intact somehow, and he manage to only get away with several burn marks and multiple bruises. The search for Team RWBY had ended, and the journey had just begun.
End of Chapter 4
Bonus Scene
Anna and Zack appeared on two sides of a TV screen.
"Today's winning card, is Yellow Flame Huntress: Yang Xiao Long. She is a Level 8, Warrior type Synchro monster." Anna said explaining the card.
"This card is hard to summon, considering her tuner is level 1. But when she appears on the field, you can't count on her to burn your opponents real good." Zack said, as he made a sizzle sound with his mouth.
"She has 2800 attack points and 1900 defense points. Clearly, you want to use this card when attacking." Anna explained, showing a playback of Yang fighting Lead Yoke.
"Plus, if she battles a monster with 2000 or more attack points, you can destroy one spell and trap card on the field and prevent it from activating." Zack said excitingly.
"That's not all. She comes if another ability. If she attacks a monster with 3000 attack points, she then gains attack points equal to halve the difference of 4000 and your current life points. So if you're low on life points, you can't count on a major power up from Yang. Plus, banishing her tuner form prevents your opponent from negating your attacks. So you're guarantee a full onslaught assault." Anna explained, showing it on the TV screen.
"She is so strong that anyone who stands in her way will get burned!" Zack said with excitement.
"I'm the hottest gal you can find in team RWBY, and in Duel monsters." Yang said, appearing in a white circle.
Author's Note
There you have it folks. Chapter 4 is now officially done. I originally thought to have the duel, be against a person who uses life point gaining strategies, and having Yang gain attack points equal to the difference of the opponent's life points. But then I thought it wouldn't be as exciting. I then came to the conclusion to introduce XYZ summoning here and use the Battlin' Boxer monster archetype. Thinking of Yang's ability was quite tricky, but then I realized that she enjoys a good challenge, so fighting a monster with 3000 or more attack points inspired my idea. I also made my first Huntress support card, and more will come later. The next chapter will feature Zackery Aegis' duel, and his HERO deck. He still is alive somehow. Where do I begin with it? There are so many possible duels with this deck. So I'm asking you guys, what heroes you want to see. Should I bring in masked heroes early, or use the classics? I don't know what deck Zack will go up against, but I'm thinking of Frightfur monsters. So did you guys like Yang's ability, and the support card I made? I hope so, because Anna will be using that ability and support card for future duels. Well, I'll see you at the next duel!
Just one more thing. Should I make an opening? If so, what song then?
Happy Thanksgiving!
