Yu-Gi-Oh: RWBY Chronicles
Chapter 6: The Little fighter. The Grimm OPs
Zack had just won his duel, and everyone was relieved that the darkness duel was over. Mia had just shown up, and was curious of what RWBY was, where they come from, and why they are here. At this point, team RWBY thought that one more person knowing their secret wouldn't hurt. Everyone then explained everything to Mia, team RWBY being from another dimension, monsters known as Grimm invading the land, and how Anna and Zack are currently helping them with their mission. They also explained to her that team RWBY were a group of teenagers that were miniaturized, due to limited aura in this dimension. Surprisingly, she took it pretty well.
"Ok. I guess that makes sense." Mia said.
"Wait. So you're not going to question us whether we are telling the truth or not? Despite everything we said that would sound crazy to others?" Blake asked.
"Listen. If there is one thing should know, is that when you live with a family like mine, nothing else is crazier." Mia replied.
"Normally, I wouldn't believe you. But after seeing your brother, he gives your statement all the proof it needs." Weiss said, looking at Zack.
"Having Zack in our lives means that things will never be smooth." Anna said chuckling.
"And RWBY in the mix just makes things even amazing!" Zack exclaimed.
"Yeah!" Ruby yelled, in agreement.
"Great. I just realized I now got two dolts in my life. I'm just glad one them lives somewhere else." Weiss silently thought.
"And I thought Ruby was hyper. So what's the rest of your family like?" Yang said.
Mia and Zack thought about it for a moment. They then exchanged looks of confusing of what to talk about. They then started giving each other strange hand signals, to communicate in silence. Some of them were easily translated, while others made no sense, such as Zack and Mia yanking their hair in the air.
"Hey Yang. Maybe we should get our own sibling code." Ruby said.
"That sounds like a good idea. This is how I say "I love you sis"." Yang said, putting her arm around Ruby's shoulders and then ruffling her hair.
"Yang! Please don't do that!" Ruby complained.
After several weird hand signals, Zack and Mia finally spoke.
"We think it's best if you see them up close. An Aegis is special in their own way." Zack responded.
"Like your Grandma?" Anna asked.
"Something like that." Mia responded.
"What so interesting about your Grandma?" Ruby asked.
"Our Grandma is a material artist. She once fought three wrestlers, and two ninjas in a no holds bar cage match. I almost felt sorry for them. Now a days, she teaches material arts at her dojo, and every woman who went there came out stronger than ever. A lot of guys that hit on them had their spirits broken. Her name is Linda Hissatsu Aegis." Mia explained.
Yang was quite impressed hearing what their grandmother could do. Ruby wonder what she was like in person. Weiss just face palmed that her middle name was Hissatsu. Blake was kind of worry of meeting the parents that were the children of a deadly material artist. This made team RWBY wonder what Mia's middle name was.
"Uh Mia. Out of curiosity, what exactly is your middle name?" Weiss asked.
"Well, if you must ask, my full name is Mia Grace Aegis. My mom gave it to me. Now come on, let's get back your house Anna." Mia replied, as she ran off to the house.
"By the way Zack, why you cover in bandages?" Mia asked.
"Long story short, I learned to never yank out a girl's hair, who can light herself on fire." Zack said, as he laughed.
"You better remember that lesson." Yang said glaring at Zack.
The group then proceeded to walk the rest of the trip back to Anna's house. In the distance, they see a man and a woman talking to Victoria. The man was wearing a black trench coat, along with blue pants, and a black shirt with lion eyes on it. He had dark brown hair that was all pointed in the back direction, along with two narrow brown eyes. The woman was wearing a pink and orange Japanese kimono that went all the way down to her feet. She had black hair that extended down to her waist and covered her ears, and two blue eyes. The two apparently appeared to be talking to Victoria.
"Gee V. What in the Sam Hill happen to your couch? It looked as though you got attacked by a chainsaw maniac." The man said.
"I can assure you Drake, that all is well. It's an old couch, it understandable why it broke." Victoria said, pushing her glasses up.
"Oh. That sounds lovely." The woman replied.
"Uh, Miko. I don't think a sofa cut in half sounds lovely." The man name Drake said.
"But think about it. With a sofa cut in half, she now has two chairs. It's a nice turn of events." The woman named Miko said.
Anna, Victoria, Drake and team RWBY just stared at the woman who just kept on smiling.
"That's our mom. She has a really good sense in fashion, and always wears something stylish. Her job is being both a tailor and a dressmaker, and Mia usually helps make the designs. She once wore a fancy red dress to a fast food joint. She very outgoing. She once manage to have a conversation with a serial killer, and lived to tell the tale." Zack said.
"How did she lived?" Ruby asked.
"Our mom knows how to talk to speak other people's languages. You should hear her speak alien. She also knows how to speak in robot language. She spoke psycho maniac so well, that the guy wet his pants." Mia said.
"That sounds impossible. Then again, she is the mother of the most improper boy in this world." Weiss said, looking at Zack.
"May I remind you that I saved you guys?" Zack said.
"With a game of chance. While I am grateful for what you did, if you didn't get those three lights, we would all be dead." Weiss said.
"Come on Weiss. You don't have to be so cold. Lighten up a bit." Yang said.
"So what about your dad?" Ruby asked.
"Dad is quite enthusiastic. A lot like me. He's also a duel chaser. He patrols the streets, looking for any rogue turbo duelists. I just want to be just like him." Zack said.
"His personality is almost like Zack, but he's more like hot headed, and Zack is just crazy." Mia said.
"To be honest. I don't think I'll know the difference." Weiss said, having little hope for the father.
"What's a duel chaser?" Ruby asked, curious about the profession.
"To explain that I have to talk about turbo duels firsts." Zack said.
"Turbo duels?" Ruby said, intrigued by the term.
"It's a form of –." Zack was about to say, until Weiss said something.
"Wait. I think your parents noticed us." Weiss said.
"I wonder if they can see us." Blake said.
At that moment, Drake then notices his two kids, and forms an aggressive smile, the one Zack usually makes. What team RWBY didn't expect was for him to run up to them at an intense speed, making a dust cloud behind him. He then jumped into the air, as the moon shined behind him. He then spun himself in the air, as he then landed on the ground right knee first, with head staring at the ground, his right hand towards his chest, and his left arm extended towards his side. Mia just smiled nervously, while Zack had stars in his eyes. Ruby had the same eyes, Weiss just stared blankly at the man, as he was just like his son. Blake just rolled her eyes, while Yang was a bit surprised at the dramatic entrance. Anna has seen this before, as Drake was always doing something dramatic. She still remembers the time he fired 10 fireworks all at the same time. Her house almost got burned down from it.
"Zack, Mia. Your spirits will burn tonight. You will be head of a Curry Festival at this house!" Drake said, as he raised his head, with his right hand in front of his face dramatically.
"Straight to the point as always. Can you just say "hi" like any other dad?" Mia asked.
"Hi Mia. Hi Zack." Drake said, waving his hand.
"Allow me to rephrase that: Can you just say "hi" first before doing something weird?" Mia asked.
"Oh come on Mia. You just need to learn how to unwind and just let out all of your spirit!" Drake said.
"Dad. It's just cooking curry. I'm sure it won't require that much spirit." Mia said.
"Oh Mia. You always manage to talk smart and stay cute all at the same time." Miko said smiling.
"Mom! Please don't embarrasses me in front of my friends!" Mia yelled, blushing.
"But there's no else here except Anna and Victoria, and they don't seem to mind." Miko said, confused as she looked around.
At this moment, team RWBY realized that Zack and Mia's parents couldn't see them. They didn't know if that was either a bad thing or a good thing. For now they just decided to see what was about to happen.
"Alright then! What about you Zack? Is your body ready!?" Drake asked, while he stared Zack in the eye with an intense stare.
"My body was born ready! Now, let's get cooking! Zack yelled in response, with the same intensity in his eyes.
"THAT'S MY BOY! NOW TAKE YOUR SISTER, AND MAKE US THAT KURI-RICE!" Drake yelled back.
"YOSH! LET'S DO THIS MIA!" Zack yelled, as he dashed off.
"Fine, just make sure you don't accidently use the wrong ingredients." Mia said, as she showed less enthusiasm than her brother and father.
"Come on Mia. Let's have fun. It's been a while since I cooked with you." Zack said.
"I didn't say I wasn't going to have fun doing this. It's just that you guys are always overdoing it. But, I guess it is nice to do something together." Mia said, smiling.
"Sounds great to me! Come on Mia! The festival is just about to begin!" Zack said.
"Yay." Mia said, raising her hand and smiling.
"Have fun you two." Miko said waving at them.
Team RWBY didn't know what to think about the Aegises. Ruby and Yang thought that the father looked like a fun guy. Weiss could relate to Mia, as she has to deal three interesting teammates. Blake on the other hand was quite concerned about the mother, and her carefree personality.
"Well. I think it's safe to assume that anyone with Aegis in their name, is going to be unique somehow." Blake said.
"Mia seems to be alright. I think she's the most normal of the family." Weiss said.
"She's a twelve year old that is more mature than any of her family members." Yang said.
"At least she isn't like Zack." Weiss said.
"Don't worry girls. You'll get along use to them." Anna said.
"LLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTSSSSSSSS DDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOO TTTTTTHHHHHIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSS!" Drake yelled to the top of his lungs.
"This sounds fun." Miko said, smiling casually.
"Eventually. And maybe a bit longer for Weiss." Anna said, with a blank look.
"Hey!" Weiss exclaimed.
At that moment, they then notice Victoria running up to them.
"Anna! What happen to you? I was worried sick!" Victoria said, as she hugged Anna.
"We just had a rude visitor. Luckily, Zack was able to show him the door, and kick him out." Anna said, hugging her sister.
"All that matters is that you are okay. Remind me to thank Zack for saving you. Also, what happened to the sofa?" Victoria said, glad her sister was okay.
"That one is on me. But it was to save Anna, in my defense." Yang said, raising her hand.
"Well, try to be more careful not to destroy things in the house. Money doesn't grow on trees." Victoria said.
"Will do." Yang replied.
At that moment, Drake and Miko started walking up towards the group.
"Anna. Good to see you! How have you been?" Drake asked.
"I'm fine Mr. Aegis. And how are you doing Mrs. Aegis?" Anna said.
"Oh, I'm doing fine Anna. But I am a bit worried." Miko said, showing signs of concern.
"About what?" Anna asked.
"Well, about five days ago, women have been disappearing around the Topaz district. No one knows where they are, or why they disappear, but I'm scarred that I might get abducted, because that the area that sells the best curry buns." Miko said terrified
"You have nothing to fear my love. Cause my everlasting love for you is what fuels my grand spirit, allowing me to shield you from harm." Drake said, comforting his wife.
"You really are my knight shining armor. I feel so safe." Miko said, hugging her husband.
"Besides. We have the best people working on the case in the detective department."
Team RWBY felt happy to see a husband and wife getting along. However, they were concerned about the disappearance of woman.
"I wonder happen at the Topaz district. Could it be a Grimm?" Weiss said, curious of what is happening.
"I don't know, but I sure do hope that the women there are okay." Blake said.
"I say we go search for them!" Ruby declared.
"I best it's safe to leave this in the police's hands. They do have more authority here." Victoria said.
"Also, just to remind you girls, I'm only fifteen years old. It's not like I can just do whatever I want. I only signed up for fighting Grimm. So unless its Grimm related, my hands are tied." Anna said, showing signs of disappointment.
"But Anna!" Ruby exclaimed.
"Not buts Ruby. Anna may be helping us fight Grimm, but we can't just ask her do anything we want to do. As much as I want to save those girls, asking Anna to do that is way out of her authority. She's just a girl; not a huntress." Yang said, talking in a more serious tone.
"Yang's right. My little sister, can only do what she's capable of, and figuring out disappearing incidents isn't on that list." Victoria said, holding her sister's shoulders.
Weiss, Blake, and Ruby, said that they would help anyone in need when they said they were going to become huntresses. As hard it was, they also had to accept the fact that their mission was to stop whatever the Grimm were doing here, but they were restrained to becoming duel spirits, and having Anna as their duelist. While a great duelist, she was still a high school girl in the 9th grade.
"It's not like I don't want to help, but I just don't have rights or strength to do it. I'm not like you guys." Anna said, slightly disappointed she can't help.
"We understand. It's just hard to sit around and not being able to do anything." Ruby said, sadden by the turn of events.
"I know how that feels." Anna said, under her breath.
"Who are you talking to girls?" Miko asked, appearing behind Victoria, and Anna.
"GGAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Anna and Victoria screamed.
Anna and Victoria were startled by Miko's sudden appearance behind them, making them jump in the air. Miko has a slight tendency to unwillingly sneak up on others when they least expected. While her intentions are good, it mostly ends up scaring someone.
"MIKO! Please don't do that! Honestly, you're going to end up giving me a heart attack one of these days." Victoria said, regaining her composure.
"Do what?" Miko asked.
"Never mind" Victoria said, shaking her head.
"By the way, who are girls talking to?" Miko asked.
"Shoot. I guess Miko and Drake can't see team RWBY. Victoria and I probably looked like crazy people. Got to think. Got to think!" Anna thought in her head, as she was panicking on the inside.
"Anna was just talking to herself! About the disappearance of the women at the Topaz district! She was just worried, because one of her friends' lives around that area, and you know how Anna is when she starts to worry." Victoria said quickly, but in a calm tone.
Miko glared at Victoria and Anna for a moment, thinking about what Victoria said. Anna and Victoria were sweating bullets. Team RWBY were nervous as well, just by watching Miko inspecting the two girls. Luckily for them, Miko was a bit tired and hungry, so she just wanted to sit down and do nothing else.
"Well, I think I'll just leave it at that. Come on you two. My kids are going to put on a show for us." Miko happily said, as she walked towards the table.
Anna let out a big breath, as she almost broke underneath the pressure. Victoria just smiled. Team RWBY went to make sure that Anna was okay.
"You feeling alright Anna?" Blake asked.
"Yeah. Just a bit woozy. You guys already know that I have a tendency to breakdown in stressful situations. Except with dueling." Anna said, sitting down.
"Just relax girl. Just relax." Ruby said, patting her back.
"I guess that means that not everyone can see us. I'm not sure whether this will help or hinder us." Weiss said.
"But think of all the things we could do! To most of the people living here, we're invisible. So that means we do things here and get away with it! We could be like ghosts!" Yang said.
"Yang. I think we shouldn't abuse our existence here as spirits." Weiss said, glaring at Yang.
"Come one Weiss. Think of all the fun we could do." Yang said, nudging Weiss in the elbow.
"Going into the men's locker room is not consider fun." Weiss said.
"What makes you think I would do that!?" Yang said, a little shocked at what Weiss said.
"Yang. I lived with you in the same dormitory for a semester. I wouldn't have been wise of me not to learn more about my teammates." Weiss said.
"Weiss…..You really do care!" Yang said, hugging Weiss.
"LET GO OF ME RIGHT NOW YANG!" Weiss yelled, struggling to get out of Yang's grip.
"I think we should go see what that show, that Miko mention. I'm quite curious of what it is." Blake said, heading off towards the table.
"I wonder what it is going to be." Ruby said, excited to see what was going to happen.
"I'm sure am hungry. Can wait to eat!" Yang said, as she too followed.
"If Zack is behind the counter, I could only imagine of what he's going to cook." Weiss said, having little faith in Zack's cooking.
Upon entering the house, a delicious scent of curry seeped through the nostrils of Anna, Victoria and team RWBY. Weiss had a hard time believing that Zack was making this. Then again, she found it easier to accept it, after remembering his sister, Mia, was helping. Ruby and Yang were unconsciously drooling just from the smell of the food. Blake, thought the smell was good, but was also strong. In the kitchen, they saw Zack and Mia dressed in chef wear, of a white button jackets, black aprons, black pants with a red fabric belt, and chef hat. Zack was using a skillet, and stirring the curry sauce at an even speed. Mia was cutting fruits, for the smoothie she was making. Team RWBY were taken back of how well dressed Zack and Mia were. Anna explained to them, the clothing was done by Miko Aegis. Weiss almost thought Zack was someone else, as he looked like a skilled cook. She was however impressed of how Mia was dressed. Ruby was staring at hypnotic show of Zack and Mia cooking. Yang was a little envious that a twelve year old girl can cook better than her. Blake was impressed of how the two siblings were working well together.
"You did remember to cook the rice, right Zack?" Mia asked.
"Uh, I think I did." Zack said.
"You think?" Mia said.
"Let me go check." Zack said, running towards to the rice cooker.
While Zack was checking on the rice cooker, Mia was busy cutting fruits, she first started with an orange slicing it in half.
"Soiya! I did remember to cook the rice!" Zack exclaimed, doing a fist pump, with his right hand.
"Good to know. You can't have curry without rice. That's just wrong." Mia said, as she just chopped a banana.
"Come on! Let's finished this up Mia!" Zack said, as he patted his little sister on the back.
"I'm holding a knife Zack. I suggest that you don't touch me. You don't want to lose your head, and I don't want to be charged with killing or harming my own brother." Mia said, just looking at Zack, as she then chopped a kiwi.
"Haaaaaiiiiiii! Don't worry sis. Your big bro is here for you all the way!" Zack said, as he then went back to his station.
Mia just let out a sigh, and then smiled at his brother.
"Always exciting as ever. Just wish he could tone it down just a bit." Mia said, as she then used the blender, to mix her fruits.
After twenty minutes passed, Zack served his curry dish. Unlike most curry dishes, the red curry sauce was shaped in the way that resembled a kuriboh, with the rice being the claws and feet. The eyes were little chicken pieces that were cut to resemble eyes. Mia also severed her fruit smoothie, which had a yellow and pinkish color.
"Well done my kiddo! You've done it again! You have made Kuri-Rice!" Drake said, with his right hand on Zack's shoulder.
"Thanks dad. That means a lot." Zack said, scratching his head.
"Zack made this?" Blake said, staring at the plate.
"It's well designed, and the scent is wonderful. I just can't believe that Zack made this!" Weiss exclaimed, examining the dish.
"Wonder what else that kid can do." Yang said looking at the dish.
"Well this smoothie looks tasty. It even smells sweet." Blake said, examining it.
"I just want to eat now." Ruby said, staring at the food.
Anna knew that Drake and Miko couldn't see team RWBY, so she had to get their food in secret. When no one was looking, she sneaked over to the pot, grabbing four mini plates of curry and bringing them towards the living room. Drake however notices this, and wonders what she was up to.
"Hey Anna. Where are you taking those plates to?" Drake asked.
"Uh. I'm taking them toooooooo…to…the shrine…as offerings…to spirits!" Anna said nervously.
"I didn't know you guys had a shrine." Zack said, surprised.
Mia then whispered into his ear, of what Anna actually meant.
"Ooooooohhhhhhhhhh." Zack said, acknowledging what Anna was doing. Weiss just face palmed at this.
"Idiot." Weiss said softly under her breath.
"Well. I hope the spirits enjoy their meal. Just make sure you tell them not to underestimate it. Kay?" Drake said, relaxing in his chair.
"Sure thing. Mia, can you bring you bring a four medium sized cups please?" Anna asked.
"Sure thing. Just give me a sec." Mia said, getting out of her chair.
"But why four?" Miko asked, confused about the number.
"I just feel like getting four for some reason." Anna said, getting a little worried.
"Alright then. Whatever floats your boat." Drake said, as he prepared to eat.
Team RWBY then followed Anna towards the living room, and they were starving.
"Well here you go girls. Sorry you can't with us. I mean it would freak out Drake and Miko, if they were to see flying spoons, filled with curry and then disappearing." Anna said, imagining Drake and Miko screaming seeing the scene.
"It's okay. As long as it we don't cause you guys any trouble then, we're fine with it." Blake said.
"It's like you four are ghosts haunting this house, no offense." Mia said, setting the cups on the table.
"You could say were something like that." Yang said.
"Hey guys! What's up?" Zack said, as he then came through the door.
"Hi Zack. What are you doing here?" Ruby asked.
"I asked my parents if I could eat in the living room with Anna. I didn't mention you guys though. You can sit with us Mia." Zack said.
"Alright then. Just don't make a mess for me to clean up again." Mia said.
"Affirmative." Zack said happily.
"Alright then! Let's dig in. I'm starving." Yang said, ready to chow down.
"I should warn you guys, it's quite-." Anna was about to say, but it was too late.
Team RWBY then took a bite of the curry. The taste was warm, and delicious. However, the taste of pleasure was quickly replaced by a taste of burning heat. Ruby, Weiss, and Blake's face started to turn bright red.
"Spicy." Anna finished.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!" They screamed. They also breathed out flames from their mouths from the heat. (The Yugioh world is an anime. So anime concepts apply). The only ones who didn't seem to mind were Yang, Mia, and Zack.
"I forgot to mention this. The curry is made with my special made firecracker hot sauce. It packs a flaming punch. *chomp*. Spicy!" Zack said, taking a bite out of his curry.
"You always go overboard with you spices, but just enough keep the flavor." Mia said, taking a bite out of the curry.
"IT BURNS!" Blake yelled,
"I NEED WATER! I NEED WATER!" Ruby yelled, as she tried blow on her tongue.
"IT BURNS!" Blake yelled, holding her throat.
"MY TONGUE FEELS LIKE IT'S ON FIRE!" Weiss yelled, fanning her tongue.
"I think it's just okay. But it sure does pack a punch." Yang said, as she took a couple more bites of the curry.
"You guys do realize that you have smoothies." Mia said, gesturing towards the smoothies.
Ruby, Weiss and Blake then grabbed their smoothies and then chugged down the whole glass, relieving them of the spicy flavor.
"Anna! Why didn't you tell us this before!? You could have spared my tongue!" Ruby asked, crying just a little.
"Sorry. The spices that Zack uses always masks the spicy scent of the dish. *chomp*. It burns, but tastes so good." Anna said, while tears streamed from her eyes.
"Heh. That's the power of my Kuri-Rice. Underestimate it, and you get burned." Zack said smiling.
At that moment, Zack was frozen in a block of ice. Mia was taken back by this. Everyone then directed their attention towards Weiss, who was furious.
"I told you what'll happen if you burn my tongue again!" Weiss said, having an icy glare in her eye.
"ZACK! Don't worry brother! I'll get you out of their!" Mia yelled.
Mia then ran out of the room, and quickly brought a small hammer, and then whacked the ice block with all her strength shattering it. Zack then collapsed to the floor, shivering.
"You okay Zack?" Mia asked.
"Con-nn-si-i-der-ing I'm still alive and have a-a-ll my limbs. You could say that." Zack said shivering on the floor.
"Wasn't that a bit much, even for Zack, Weiss?" Anna asked with a sad look on her face.
"In my defense, I did warn him ahead of time." Weiss said.
"In his defense, he's Zack. You know how he operates." Mia said, getting a blanket for Zack.
"Can't argue with that Weiss." Yang said, as she ate her curry.
"Still, how am I supposed to eat this? It's too spicy!" Weiss complained.
"I have to agree with Weiss on this one. Zack made this dish way to spicy for my taste." Blake said.
"It felt like my tongue was going to melt." Ruby said, drinking a little bit more of her smoothie.
"Sorry girls, but you are just going to deal with it, or go hungry for the rest of the night. I learn that the hard way. *chomp*" Anna said taking a bite out of her curry.
"My suggestion is to take small bites. Luckily for you girls, I made extra smoothie batches tonight." Mia said.
"Mia! We ran out of smoothie! You made it to good!" Drake yelled from the dining room.
"Thus is the curse of a chef. Hunger is never satisfied." Mia said.
Anna suggested that team RWBY take small bites, to minimize the burning sensation in their mouths, and Mia brought back several glasses of milk just in case. Team RWBY got the hang of eating the curry, but it was still spicy nonetheless. Weiss kept on giving Zack cold stares every time she bit into the curry. The only member who didn't mind the curry was Yang, and she actually asked for thirds. Mia was curious about the world of Remnant, so she asked Team RWBY about it. They then explained to her all about the world of Remnant, from the four kingdoms, its history, technology, Grimm, Huntsmen, Beacon Academy, weapons, the White Fang, and Faunus. Mia listen to every word that came out of the Huntresses mouths, jotting down all the notes in her head. Weiss even gave her a pop quiz, asking her questions about Remnant.
"How does communication work in Remnant?" Weiss asked.
"The Cross Continental Transmit System, which is controlled by the academies' towers." Mia stated.
"I have to say, I'm quite impress. Are you really the sister of Zackery Aegis?" Weiss said, smiling at Mia.
"I assure you, I am the sister of Zackery. However, I do question the fact myself." Mia said, drinking a glass of water.
"Hey Mia, check it out! I'm going to drink two cups of orange juice at the same time! *choke*" Zack said, choking on the two glasses of juice.
"ZACK! Don't worry Zack, I'm here for you! Stay with me buddy! Do not go into the light!" Anna yelled, doing a Heimlich maneuver on Zack.
"It's hard living with a brother like that." Mia said, looking at his brother.
"I know how that feels." Weiss said looking at Ruby.
"Hey Weiss! I'm going to eat this cookie through my nose!" Ruby said, as she actually tried to push the cookie through her nose, only to get some crumbs stuck in her nasal passage.
"RUBY! Hang on sis! Yang is here for you!" Yang yelled, patting Ruby on the head multiple times to get the cookie crumbs out.
"At least you're older than her. My brother is three years older than me, which makes it way more embarrassing." Mia said.
"If you think that's bad, my teammate also happens to be the leader of our team, and she's younger than me." Weiss said.
"Huh. I guess that is kind of weird. I'm just glad someone knows my pain." Mia said, smiling at Weiss.
"I'm just glad there is someone who acts proper here in this dimension." Weiss said, enjoying her conversation.
"So you actually an heiress to the largest dust Distribution Company?" Mia asked.
"That is also correct, and I'm quite proud of it." Weiss said.
"So Blake. You said that Faunus, are a race of people with animal parts?" Mia asked.
"That is correct. Since Anna and Zack already know, I might as well show you." Blake said, taking off her bow.
"Are those…cat ears!?" Mia said, surprised at seeing the ears.
"Indeed they are. Other Faunus traits, include tails, fangs, or horns." Blake said.
"Wow! That is so amazing! I wish I had cat ears! They would sure be useful." Mia said smiling.
"If you live were we come from, you wouldn't be wishing that." Blake said sadly.
"Why is that?" Mia asked.
"Ever since the beginning of time, Faunus have been discriminated and some of us are treated like animals. This has led to multiple wars, of Faunus fighting for their rights. Even today, Faunus are still being treated as differently. This has caused the Faunus Rights movement, the White Fang, to form. At first we were a peaceful movement, but then when the original leader step down, the new leader resorted to violent methods, such as terrorism, or murder, and it actually worked. But people only respected us out of fear, not out of compassion. I'm trying to make a difference for Faunus, but my way. So that's why I joined Beacon." Blake said.
When she looked up, she saw Anna, Zack, and Mia crying streams of tears at Blake's story.
"That is *sob* the saddest thing I have ever heard *sob*." Anna said crying.
"And I though racial discrimination here was stupid *sob*." Mia said, crying as well.
"I never knew you went through so much *sob*." Zack said, as he then hugged Blake.
"Can you please let go Zack? I'm fine all things consider. Also, this is quite embarrassing." Blake said, blushing.
After drying up their tears. Everyone went back to eating, and eventually finished their dinner. Mia then turned her attention towards the rest of team RWBY.
"Well girls. Now that we've eaten, I would like to see what you guys are made out of." Mia said.
"What do you mean by that?" Ruby asked.
"I mean in a duel. I want to see what you girls are made out of, and I'm quite curious to see how you fight." Mia said, as form the same aggressive smile that Zack would make.
"What do you girls think?" Anna asked.
Team RWBY thought about it for a moment.
"You know what. I accept your challenge Mia, so bring it on!" Yang said, smashing her right fish into her left palm.
"I think it would be a nice change of pace of dueling someone else besides a Grimm." Blake said.
"I think I'm starting to see the resemblance between your brother and you. But you have captured my attention. Let's see if you are worth it." Weiss said, glaring at Mia.
"Bring it on Mia! But don't expect us to go easy on you just because you're younger than us." Ruby said.
"Trust me Ruby. That's the last thing you would want to do in a duel." Mia said.
"Then it's settle. I'll go let my sister and your parents know that we are going to duel in the backyard. After that, we'll have our duel." Anna said, staring intensely at Mia.
Anna did tell Victoria, Drake and Miko that she was going to have a duel with Mia. They all agreed as long as they didn't do anything reckless, and they would come out as soon as they were done talking. Once outside, Mia and Anna had there duel disks equipped, and then began shuffling each other's decks.
"Zack. Why are they shuffling each other's decks?" Blake asked.
"As a sign of respect. We wouldn't do it with a Grimm though." Zack said.
"Amen to that." Yang said.
"So what kind of deck does your sister use?" Weiss asked.
"If I told you that, it would be quite unfair. But I can tell you that it is quite interesting, and you girls might give you girls a run for your money." Zack said, joyfully.
"Are you saying we might lose?" Ruby asked, shocked from what she heard.
"It could happen. Anything goes when it comes to duel monsters. I won't take a side this time. I'm just going to see how things go. Fair warning though: my sister is a force to be reckon with." Zack said in a relaxed tone.
Team RWBY was now on guard, since they had no idea what Mia was made out of, and Zack described her of being strong. They however felt relieve to duel someone who didn't want to kill them. When both players got to their areas, the duel began.
"DUEL!" The duelist yelled.
Turn 1: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 4000LP vs Mia Aegis: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 5 vs Mia Aegis Hand: 5
"I'll start us off, by summoning my Obnoxious Celtic Guardian!" Anna declared playing her monster.
Obnoxious Celtic Guardian
Level 4: Attribute Earth
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 1400 DEF: 1200
The monster that appeared was an elf like warrior, garbed in a light brown shirt, white pants, and adventurer boots. He also had two yellow woven wrist gauntlets. For armor he wore green chest armor that covered the top portion of his body, and his shoulders. He also wore a green helmet with two axe like blades sticking out from the sides, and a red jewel in the middle. He also had yellow hair. For his weapon, he wielded a long broadsword, which he wielded with two hands. For added flair, he also wore a purple cape. Team RWBY thought that the monster looked quite handsome.
"He looks like a Huntsmen from the history books!" Ruby said, amazed by the monster's appearance.
"Now that's a fine looking monster if I do say so myself." Yang purred, winking at the monster, hoping he would notice.
"He…looks impressive." Weiss said, turning her head.
"Come one Weiss. You like him don't you." Yang said, nudging her in the arm.
"Not now Yang." Weiss said.
"He just looks fine to me." Blake said, with a neutral expression.
"I'll then activate the spell card Shard of Greed! Now whenever I draw a card during my draw phase, I can place one greed counter on this card, and if it has two Greed Counters, I can send this card to the graveyard to draw two cards." Anna explained.
Shard of Greed
Spell Card: Continuous
Shard of Greed showed a broken eye piece of the pot of greed. Team RWBY wonder why not just have another Pot of Greed though.
"I'll end my turn with one card facedown." Anna said, playing her face down.
Turn 2: Mia Aegis
Anna Yuno: 4000LP vs Mia Aegis: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 2 vs Mia Aegis Hand: 5
"Looks like I'm up now. I draw! I'm going to summon my Card Trooper to the field in attack mode!" Mia declared.
Card Trooper
Level 3: Attribute Earth
Machine/Effect
ATK: 400 DEF: 400
The monster that appeared had a cylinder like red body, with two meter gauges on its chest. Its head was inside an oval shaped glass dome, with an antenna receiver, as it also has two yellow eyes for its main camera. It also had two arms, connected a yellow ball joint, and wire arms, but had two red arm cannons. It also was attached to a blue base with thank treads.
"Not as good as a paladin." Weiss said, unimpressed with the monster.
"He looks kind of cool." Ruby said, as she was slightly impressed with the monster.
"I wonder what it does." Blake said curious about the monster.
"Doesn't look like much." Yang said, examining the monster.
"I activate my Card Trooper's ability! I can send up to three cards from the top of my deck to graveyard, and my Card Trooper gain 500 attack points for each. So I'll send three cards from the top of my deck to the graveyard, and my Card Trooper will power up by 1500 points for this turn!" Mia declared, as she then sent the top three cards of her deck to the grave.
Card Trooper: 400ATK + 500ATK + 500ATK + 500ATK = 1900ATK
"That's an interesting ability. Sacrificing some of your deck to power up." Blake said.
"But what merit those that hold? You're sending your own cards to your graveyard. Isn't that a bad thing?" Ruby asked.
Team RWBY looked at Zack, expecting him to say something.
"What? You girls aren't getting anything out of me. It would give you an unfair advantage against my sister." Zack said, turning his head.
"A true sibling to the end. I respect that Zack." Yang said, giving him a thumbs up.
"Alright Card Trooper! Take aim and fire at Anna's Celtic Guardian!" Mia declared extending pointing her finger at Celtic Guardian.
Card Trooper then powered up his arm cannons, as he then took aim at Celtic Guardian and then fired its cannons. Celtic Guardian then raised his sword and then sliced the beams in two.
"Hate to break it to you Mia, but my Obnoxious Celtic Guardian can't be destroyed in battle with monsters with 1900 or more attack points." Anna declared.
"You're still going to take damage!" Mia yelled.
Celtic Guardian did survive the battle, but the beams were then directed towards Anna, as they then exploded around her.
Anna Yuno: 4000LP – 500LP = 3500LP
"ANNA!" Team RWBY yelled.
"Don't worry girls. This isn't a darkness duel, so the damage isn't real, and the shockwave damage has been set to level C." Anna said.
"What's shockwave damage?" Ruby asked.
"Shockwave damage, is a type of damage exclusive to solid field vision duels. They add more realism to the duels, by exerting pressure on a duelist's body when they take damage. It won't kill them, but they will feel the intensity of the damage based on the level. Level C is the lowest, with the damage being almost none existent. Level B is the middle area of damage, where the duelist will feel the pressure from the damage from attacks. Level A is the highest, and is a test of endurance, as shockwave damage exerts high amounts of pressure on a duelist's body." Zack explained.
"So these Shockwave Levels add realism to the game, making it more interesting. Like a simulator." Blake said.
"You could say something like that." Zack said.
"I have to say that this solid field vision technology is way more advanced than I thought it was." Weiss said, intrigued with the system.
"I would play this game on Level A all the time." Yang said.
"This game keeps getting better and better." Ruby said, as she really wanted to duel.
"I'll end my turn with one facedown." Mia said, playing a card facedown.
Card Trooper: 1900ATK – 1500ATK = 400ATK
Turn 3: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 3500LP vs. Mia Aegis: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 2 vs Mia Aegis Hand: 4
"My turn now, I draw! At this time, my Shard of Greed gains one counter." Anna stated.
Shard of Greed: 1 Counter
"I then summon RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose in attack mode!" Anna declared.
RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose
Level 3: Attribute Wind
Warrior/Tuner/Effect
ATK: 1400 DEF: 900
"Leave it to me Anna! Now let's Synchro Summon!" Ruby said, entering the battlefield.
"Actually Ruby, I'm going to have you attack Card Trooper first." Anna said.
"Why not go straight for the Synchro summon?" Ruby asked confused.
"Well, if I were to summon your synchro version and attack, we would only do 2100 points of damage. But if you attack Card Trooper and I have Celtic Guardian attack Mia directly, then we would deal 2400 points of damage. After that then we summon your Synchro form to for next turn." Anna explained.
"Oh. I get it now. That's pretty smart of you Anna." Ruby said.
"The more the merrier." Yang said.
"Alright Ruby! Attack Card Trooper!" Anna declared.
"On it!" Ruby said.
Ruby then placed her blade of Crescent Rose in the ground, and then fired a round at Card Trooper. Mia however had other plans.
"That is a nice plan Anna. However, my trap and I have other ideas. I play Mirror Force!" Mia declared.
"Not that card!" Anna screamed in horror.
"Sorry Anna. Now all face up attack position monsters you control are destroyed." Mia said.
Mirror Force
Trap Card: Normal
Mirror Force showed an energy beam being fired towards a convex barrier, and then being deflected in multiple directions. A mirror like wall then appeared in front of Mia's Card Trooper, and the bullet made contact with the barrier. The mirror then began to react, by then shooting out two rays of energy towards Ruby and Celtic Guardian.
"Aw come on!" Ruby yelled, in annoyance, as she was already going to get destroyed.
Ruby and Celtic Guardian were then struck by the rays of light, as their bodies then shattered, leaving Anna with no monsters on her field. Team RWBY was stunned from what one Trap Card could do.
"RUBY! Not again!" Yang yelled in horror.
"Get used to it Yang. Because you guys will get destroyed from time to time. I hope this won't be traumatic for every time you have to see your sister get destroyed." Zack said.
"You mean to tell us that it's guarantee that we may get destroyed if we are placed on the field?" Weiss asked, showing signs of concern.
"Pretty much. Unless Anna doesn't have a card to protect from attacks or effects, you guys are going to the graveyard. I mean, there are a lot of ways you could die in this game, like steam rolled, being mauled by a dog monster, or eaten by a burger monster. It happened to my monsters once." Zack said, as he was unintentionally scarring Team RWBY.
"STEAM ROLLED!" Weiss yelled.
"DOG MONSTERS!" Blake yelled in fear.
"A BURGER!? How in the world does that make sense? We should be the ones eating the burgers." Yang yelled in confusion.
"Yep. But since you girls are strong, you won't suffer from humiliating defeats, like being defeated by a Kuriboh." Zack said, trying to lighten the mood.
"I think I would die from embarrassment from that." Weiss said, not wanting to be defeated by a fuzz ball.
Anna gritted her teeth. She already lost all of her monsters. She then regained her composure, and then took a couple of deep breaths.
"That was quite the setback. I'll just play two cards facedown and end my turn." Anna said ending her turn.
Turn 4: Mia Aegis
Anna Yuno: 3500LP vs Mia Aegis: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 0 vs Mia Aegis Hand: 4
"My move Anna, and you better get ready, because this next move is devastating." Mia said as she drew her card.
"You think you'll be okay Anna?" Ruby asked, appearing next to Anna in an astral like body.
"To be honest with you Ruby, I'm kind of nervous." Anna said, as her voice quivered a little.
"Just relax, you'll be fine." Ruby said, comforting Anna.
"Thanks Ruby. I can see why you're the leader." Anna said.
"Pay attention Anna, cause this where the battle begins! I play the spell card Silent Doom! Now I can summon one Normal type monster from my graveyard in defense mode. I'll select the Blazewing Butterfly that was sent to my graveyard. Return, Blazewing Butterfly!" Mia declared.
Silent Doom
Spell Card: Normal
Silent Doom showed a hand grabbing ray of energy. A black portal then appeared in front of Mia, as a flaming object shot out of the portal. When the flames died down, Blazewing Butterfly then appeared. It looked like your average everyday butterfly with a red body. Except that its wing are literally made out of fire.
Blazewing Butterfly
Level 4: Attribute Fire
Insect/Gemini
ATK: 1500 DEF: 1500
"Wow! Now that's a butterfly I would want to have. It's one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen." Yang said dazzled by the butterfly.
"A butterfly with fire for wings? Now I've seen it all." Weiss said surprised by the monster's appearance.
"Wait. That monster looks like an Effect Monster. How did Mia summon it?" Blake asked.
"Quite simple Blake. My monster is a Gemini monster: monsters that are treated as Normal type monsters when on my field, or graveyard. However, they have inner potential." Mia said, smiling.
"What do you mean by that?" Blake asked curious what a Gemini is.
"Let me show you! I give up my normal summon this turn, to Gemini Summon Blazewing Butterfly!" Mia yelled.
Fire like circle then appeared underneath Blazewing Butterfly, as it a pillar of fire shot up, surrounding the Butterfly in a vortex of fire, as it then dissipated, leaving the Butterfly surrounded in a red like aura.
"A Gemini Summon?" Weiss said, wondering what it meant.
"Zack. You mind telling us, since there's no point in hiding it." Blake asked.
"Sure thing. Gemini Monsters are quite unique. When first summon, they are treated as normal monsters. However, if you haven't normal summon yet, and you have a Gemini Monster on your field, you can give up your Normal Summon to Gemini Summon a Gemini Monster. If you do that, it unlocks their hidden ability. Trust me, I have seen it multiple times since I live with her." Zack explained.
"The only question is; what does it do?" Blake said, examining the monster.
(Play Yugioh GX Fervent Duel)
"I activate Blazewing Butterfly's effect! By sacrificing it, I can summon one Gemini Monster from my graveyard, and treated as an effect monster. I just so happen to have one, and it's all thanks to my Card Trooper." Mia said.
"So by sending cards to the Graveyard, Mia can summon her monsters with more ease." Weiss said, understanding Mia's strategy.
"I told you that my sister is a force to be reckon with." Zack said.
"Blazewing Butterfly! I release you to give rise to a new power! Now feast your eyes upon a monster that burns everything in its wake, and is the pure manifestation of the Flames of Catastrophe! I summon Chthonian Emperor Dragon!" Mia yelled, while pointing her right arm and finger in the air.
Chthonian Emperor Dragon
Level 6: Attribute Fire
Dragon/Gemini
ATK: 2400 DEF: 1500
Blazewing Butterfly then turned into a ball of fire and then flew towards a black portal that appeared in front of Mia. Suddenly, a pillar of fire erupted from the portal as two black wings, sprouted from the pillar, and two red eyes could be seen inside the pillar. The dragon emerged from the pillar head first as it gave out of roar, flying high into the air, and then returning to the ground next to Mia's side. The dragon had the body of a serpent. Its head and neck were attached together. The head resembled that of a snake with yellow eyes, and his head appeared to be wearing a bronze helmet. His neck was also studded with orange orbs. The mid part of his body had two curved blades on his shoulders, arm wings that were also his arms (he basically had no hands, just wings on his arms), along with an orange core in his chest. The lower part of his body, consisted mostly just his tail, but he did had two tiny wings attached to the lower parts of his body. Team RWBY was just speechless from just seeing the monster. Zack just smiled at the summoning. Anna just gulped.
"NOW THERE ARE DRAGONS IN THIS GAME! This game sure is something else." Yang yelled.
"That thing looks dangerous." Weiss said, staring at the dragon.
"And the other thing is that a twelve year old girl is controlling it." Blake said, as she was trying to comprehend that the strength of a dragon, was being controlled by a twelve year old girl.
"Anna. Is it wrong to be both afraid but yet like an awesome monster at the same time?" Ruby asked.
"Don't worry Ruby. That is completely normal in Duel Monsters." Anna said.
Mia then continued her turn.
"I activate Card Trooper's ability. I'll send two cards from of my deck to the graveyard to give him 1000 extra attack points." Mia said.
Card Trooper: 400ATK + 500ATK + 500ATK = 1400ATK
"Get ready Anna, because I'm cranking up the heat. Chthonian Emperor Dragon! Attack Anna directly! CHTHONIAN FLAME BURST!" Mia yelled.
Chthonian Emperor Dragon's orbs then lit up, as he breathed a breath of fire towards Anna.
"I activate a Trap Card, Spirit Force! This card turns any battle damage for this battle to zero!" Anna declared.
Spirit Force
Trap Card: Normal
Spirit Force showed a duelist with spikey orange hair surrounded in a yellow aura, with wind blowing around him. Anna then took on a kung fu like posture, was then surrounded in a yellow aura, as she then let out a battle cry, withstanding the attack.
"YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Anna screamed, as she withstood the attack of the flames.
"Was that really necessary?" Weiss asked, glaring at Anna.
"Come on Weiss. Let the girl have her fun." Yang said, nudging her arm.
"Don't touch me." Weiss said.
"In addition, I can add one Warrior Type tuner monster from my graveyard back to my hand, as long as it has 1500 or less defense points. RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose has 900 defense points, so I'll add her back." Anna said, retrieving Ruby.
"And it's good to be back." Ruby said, appearing next to the rest of her team.
"RUBY! You're back!" Yang said, hugging her sister.
"Yang. Please let go of me." Ruby said in distress.
"Don't relax just yet girls. Remember, my Dragon is consider an effect monster thanks to my Butterfly, and his hidden ability allows him to attack twice during each battle phase." Mia said.
"Anna! Watch out!" Blake yelled.
"CHTHONIAN FLAME BURST!" Mia yelled, as her the dragon attacked once more.
"I play my other facedown! Defense Draw! All damage from this battle also becomes zero, and I get to draw one card from my deck!" Anna said.
Defense Draw
Trap Card: Normal
A barrier then formed around Anna, as the flames then dispersed upon contact with the dome. Anna then drew one card.
"Nice one Anna. You survive my dragon's breath. But you won't evade my Card Trooper's attack." Mia said, signaling Card Trooper to attack.
Card Trooper then took aim, and fired his cannons at Anna, as they then exploded upon contact with the ground damaging Anna.
Anna Yuno: 3500LP – 1400LP = 2100LP
"Mia just made Anna lose almost halve of her life points. She sure is one tough cookie." Yang said.
"I must say. I wasn't expecting her to put us in a corner." Weiss said.
"It's a good thing she isn't a Grimm." Blake said.
"I'll end my turn with a card facedown." Mia said
Turn 5: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 2100LP vs Mia Aegis: 4000LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 2 vs Mia Aegis Hand: 3
"My turn now, I draw! At this time my Shard of Greed has two counters, so I by sending it to the graveyard, I can now draw two cards!" Anna declared, sending Shard of Greed to the graveyard.
"I then activate the spell card the Warrior Returning Alive spell card! Now I can add Obnoxious Celtic Guardian from my graveyard back to my hand." Anna said, retrieving her monster.
"I think I know what comes next." Ruby said excited.
"Since I control no monsters and you do, I can special summon RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose from my hand." Anna declared.
"I have returned!" Ruby declared, as she reentered the battle field.
"Also, I summon my Obnoxious Celtic Guardian to the field in attack mode!" Anna said, summoning the monster again.
"Bring it on Anna! Show me what you and team RWBY can do!" Mia said, pointing her finger at them.
"Careful for what you wish for Mia, because you might just get it! I tune level 3 RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose with level 4 Obnoxious Celtic Guardian!" Anna declared.
Ruby then jumped into the air, turning into three green rings, surrounding Obnoxious Celtic Guardian, turning him into four stars. Team RWBY knew what came next, and smiled.
"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 yelled.
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose
Level 7: Attribute Wind
Warrior/Synchro/Effect
ATK: 2500 DEF: 2000
Ruby then reappeared on the field in her Synchro form, as she then unfolded her Crescent Rose into its Scythe configuration.
"Aren't you a bit young to be wielding a Scythe?" Mia asked.
"Aren't you a bit mature for your age?" Ruby asked.
"Touché." Mia responded.
"Due to the effect of RWBY-Soul: Ruby Rose, Ruby gains an additional 300 attack points till the end of this turn." Anna said, as Ruby powered up.
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 2500ATK + 300ATK = 2800ATK
"Let's go Ruby! Attack Chthonian Emperor Dragon!" Anna yelled, pointing at the Dragon.
"I can finally scratch slaying a dragon off my bucket list!" Ruby yelled with excitement.
"I activate Ruby's special ability! Whenever she attacks a monster with 2000 or more attack points, she battle another monster simultaneously, at the cost of halving her damage output! I'm having Ruby attacking your Card Trooper!" Anna declared.
Ruby then began swinging her Crescent Rose, attacking Chthonian Emperor Dragon, and then fired multiple shots Card Trooper. The Dragon then breathed a breath of fire towards Ruby, but Ruby evaded it by using her semblance, to maneuver around the fire. She brought the blade of the Crescent Rose behind the back of the Dragon, and then fired a shot from the rifle, cutting the dragon in two as it was destroyed. She then switched it to sniper configuration, as she then fired a shot at Card Trooper, causing him to explode. The destruction of the two monsters then damage Mia, causing her to slide back just a little.
Mia Aegis: 4000LP – 200LP – 1200LP = 2600LP
"Since Ruby destroyed two monsters using this effect, you also take 500 points of damage!" Anna said.
Ruby then placed the blade of the weapon in the ground, and fired a round at Mia damaging her.
Mia Aegis: 2600LP – 500LP = 2100LP
"That was quite impressive Ruby. Wasn't expecting that." Mia said, wiping some dirt off her face.
"Thanks Mia. It nice to fight someone who isn't trying to do something bad, but would rather have a good time with friends." Ruby said, smiling.
"Still, that doesn't mean you're going to beat me!" Mia said, with hints of aggression in her voice.
"In your dreams Mia! Because Anna's best duelist that we could ask for!" Ruby said.
"She sure has proven herself to quite useful to us." Weiss said.
"I'll say. It's because of her that we're still alive and kicking." Yang said.
"She also a nice person to hang out with." Blake said.
"Aw. Thanks girls." Anna said, blushing.
"I'll admit that Anna is a good duelist. But that doesn't mean that she'll come out on top. No offense Anna, but you aren't invincible." Mia said.
"None taken." Anna replied.
"Good. Now then, the effect of my Card Gunner activates! When destroyed in combat, I can draw one card." Mia said.
"Alright then. I'll end my turn with two cards facedown." Anna said ending her turn.
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 2800ATK – 300ATK = 2500ATK
"My remaining facedown is Synchro Deflector. This card will negate any attack targeting a synchro monster on my field, and I can destroy one monster on Mia's field. I'm all set."
Turn 6: Mia Aegis
Anna Yuno: 2100LP vs Mia Aegis: 2100LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1 vs Mia Aegis Hand: 4
"Here I go! Draw! First, I play the spell card Magical Stone Excavation! Now by discarding two cards from my hand to the graveyard, I can add one magic card back to my hand! So I'll discard two, and add Silent Doom back to my hand." Mia declared.
Magical Stone Excavation
Spell Card: Normal
Magical Stone Excavation showed a purple magical stone that was shining brightly. Mia then traded two of her cards in her hand for the Silent Doom spell card. The card reminded Weiss of mining for dust.
"So she used gave up three cards in hand, just to get one Magic Card back. I wonder what she's planning." Weiss said.
"She's obviously going to bring back that butterfly. You've seen what she did before." Blake said.
"That is exactly right Blake. I'm going to use Silent Doom to bring back, my Blazewing Butterfly. Then you know the rest." Mia said.
Blazewing Butterfly then reappear on the field, as Mia once again Gemini Summon it.
"Fine then! Bring back your Dragon! I can take him on any day." Ruby said, confidently.
"I know that. So how about another opponent?" Mia asked, smirking.
"What do you mean?" Ruby asked, a little nervous now.
"It means you're going to meet Mia's ace." Zack said, as he came back with popcorn.
"Ace?" Team RWBY said.
Anna was now on guard, as she then prepared for what Mia was about to do.
"Blazewing Butterfly! I release you once more to summon a Warrior of Burning spirit!" Mia yelled.
Blazewing Butterfly once again turned into an orb of fire, and flew into a black portal. A bigger pillar of fire then erupted from the ground.
"Mighty warrior of the eternal flame. Burn endlessly for all of eternity! APPEAR, PHOENIX GEARFRIED!" Mia chanted.
Phoenix Gearfried
Level 8: Attribute Fire
Warrior/Gemini
ATK: 2800 DEF: 2200
From the pillar of fire, scimitar like sword then slashed through the fire vertically. The fire then now surrounded a figure, that stood within the flames was a tall warrior. His body armor was mostly white, but yet elegant armor pieces on the top portion of his body, and shoulder, along with a gold outlining and his chest piece had a purple gem in the middle. In the mid-section of his body had black straps, which were connected to a long piece of cloth that ran down the center between his legs. His legs were consisted of red armor plating with, white metallic boots. His head was covered with a face guard which covered up his mouth and nose, but still reveal his green eyes. His helmet was curved back, colored white, with a gold outlining. It also has a red crown like object on his head. His weapons consisted of Scimitar, with small sharp blades for the cross guard, a purple gem on the base of the sword, and a circular gem at the end. He also wielded a shield in his left arm that was in a pentagon like shape, with several golden linings, and purple jewels. For added flare, he also wore a stylish white cape, resembling the feathers of a phoenix at the end. Team RWBY just gazed at the monster. Just his appearance was just enough to tell them that he was not to be taken likely. Yang was most impressed, and had a hard time to get her words into a sentence.
"That…monster….sword….on fire…awesome…cape…feeling dizzy." Yang said, as her eyes were swirls, and she started to lose balance.
"That's…Mia's ace?" Weiss asked in disbelief.
"He like the swordsman version of Yang." Blake said.
"I have to go up against him?" Ruby said, both in awe and in fear.
"That's not all you have to worry about. From my hand I play the spell card Twin Twisters! Now by discarding one card from my hand to the graveyard, I can destroy two of spell and trap cards!" Mia said, discarding another card.
"You are one cruel little girl." Anna said in annoyance.
Twin Twisters
Spell Card: Quick Play
Twin Twisters showed two tornados causing massive damage to a field, and a hat with a question mark, a spikey telescope, a cross, two lambs, and a horn were being caught up in the storm. The card then generated two tornados, and they then circled around Anna facedowns, lifting them up in the air, revealing them to be Scrap-Iron scarecrow, and Miracle's Wake. The cards were then destroyed in the ferocious winds.
Scrap-Iron Scarecrow
Trap Card: Normal
Miracle's Wake
Trap Card: Normal
"Not those cards! They were some of the best trap cards in the deck!" Ruby screamed in horror.
"She traded her entire hand, just to gain an advantage over us. She's even better than the Grimm we've been fighting." Weiss said, as she couldn't believe a twelve year old was beating them.
"I don't know whether that is impressive, or just scary. She's clever, and aggressive at the same time." Blake said, stunned by Mia's dueling style.
"Wow. This girls is even just as ruthless as me when it comes to card games." Yang said, admiring.
"This is just a fraction of Mia's strength. So you haven't seen anything yet." Zack replied.
"Oh this is just the beginning girls. Next I banish Dawnbreak Gardna and Marauding Captain, who were sent to my graveyard by Card Trooper's effect, to add Divine Sword Phoenix Blade to my hand. Then I'm going to equip it too Phoenix Gearfried." Mia declared.
Dawnbreak Gardna
Level 3: Attribute Light
Warrior/Gemini
ATK: 1500 DEF: 500
Marauding Captain
Level 3: Attribute Earth
Warrior/Effect
ATK: 1200 DEF: 400
Divine Sword Phoenix Blade
Spell Card: Equip
Dawnbreak Gardna was a warrior clad in black armor and had a small green gem in the center, with two mid-size shield gauntlets on his arms. His helmet was connected to his armor, with a Y like visor and a red gem on the bottom. Marauding Capitan was a man in his middle age, wearing blue armor on his upper body, knees and legs, and arms, and were embedded with gold attachments. His face was rough edged, with blue eyes and a scar on his left eye, with short blond hair. He also wore a blue cape, which is also red on the inside. His choice of weapons were two swords, with one being less wide than the other. The spirits of the monsters came out of the graveyard, along with a sword with a hilt resembling the head of a phoenix, and the cross guard resembling the wings of a phoenix. The spirits then went into the sword empowering it. Normally, a swordsman who already has a sword would replace his sword with the sword he or she would be equipped with. However, what Gearfried did was different. He detached his shield and threw it to the side, and picked up the blade with his left hand, and he was now duel wielding a flaming scimitar, and a Phoenix blade. For dramatic effect, he then lit the top part of his cape on fire.
Phoenix Gearfried: 2800ATK + 300ATK = 3100ATK
"Weiss. Even you have to admit that he looks awesome." Yang said, dazzled by the warrior's appearance.
"I'll admit to that. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT HE'S GOING TO DESTROY RUBY WITH THOSE SWORDS!" Weiss yelled.
"OH SHOOT! I FORGOT ALL ABOUT THAT! ANNA! PLEASE PROTECT MY SISTER!" Yang yelled.
"I don't think she can Yang. Mia destroyed all of Anna's traps, and they were what Anna was going to use to protect Ruby with." Blake stated.
Yang was just silent, as she was about to see her sister get destroyed, again.
"You can dish it out Anna, but can you take it? Phoenix Gearfried! Attack Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose! PHOENIX ERUPTION BLADE! By the way, know you have one more facedown, so I play the Trap Card Royal Decree! Now all trap effects are negated, except this one. So now I shut down all of your traps." Mia said.
"She's even more heartless than Yang!" Ruby screamed in horror. (She came back in an astral like body).
"A card that shuts down trap cards! That's just pure evil!" Yang yelled.
"No Yang. That there is strategy, and it's a good strategy to prevent your opponent from activating traps." Weiss said.
"You're praising the enemy Weiss." Blake said.
"I'm just respecting her playstyle. I would have done the same thing." Weiss said.
"You really are an Ice Queen." Zack replied.
"Hey!" Weiss complained.
Phoenix Gearfried then jumped into the air, and came back down striking the ground with both of this swords, causing a wave of a fire to erupt from the ground, as it quickly engulfed Ruby.
"HOT! HOT! HOT! IT'S TO HOT!" Ruby yelled, as she then shattered.
Anna Yuno: 2100LP – 600LP = 1500LP
"RUBY! WWWWWHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYY!" Yang yelled in agony
"Relax Yang, she's not actually dead." Blake said, comforting Yang.
"Oh yeah. You're right. But you'll pay for this Mia!" Yang yelled.
"Sorry Yang, but you guys are going get destroyed once in a while if you get used in battle." Mia stated.
"She right. Sadly, it very likely we'll get destroy in a duel if we are used in a duel." Blake said.
"That doesn't sound so pleasant." Weiss said.
"Thus is the life of a Duel Monster. That's why we duelists respect them." Zack said.
"And with that I'll end my turn." Mia said.
(End Yugioh GX Fervent Duel)
Turn 7: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 1500LP vs Mia Aegis: 2100LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 1 vs Mia Aegis Hand: 0
"My turn Mia! I draw. I play the spell card Pot of Greed! Now I can draw two cards." Anna declared.
"Now you've done it." Mia said smiling.
"Huh?" Anna said in confusion.
"Remember, Gearfried was summon by Blazewing Butterfly's ability, so he has his Gemini ability. Since you activate a spell card, I can choose one Gemini monster in my graveyard, and wake it up. Return to the frontlines! Chthonian Emperor Dragon!" Mia declared.
Phoenix Gearfried then raised his sword, and generated a portal made out of fire in front of him. Chthonian Emperor Dragon then flew out of the portal and let out a tremendous roar.
"That's a dangerous ability. Gearfired forces his opponents to second guess themselves whether they should play their spell cards or not." Blake said.
"And if they do, they might end up hurting themselves more than helping." Weiss said.
"Out of all the monster that had to appear, it had to be the Emperor." Yang said, clutching her fists.
Anna drew two cards from her deck. She then looked at her hand, and did only one thing.
"I end my turn." Anna said, doing nothing.
"Wait. No facedowns, no monsters, no nothing!?" Yang yelled, in disbelief.
"Is Anna out of options?" Weiss asked, showing slight hints of concern.
"Mia is quite the adversary. With proper training, I think she could be a fine Huntress." Blake said, admiring Mia.
"That's my sister for you. She show no mercy to any one, especially five year olds. Ever since she was little, she was fearsome when it came to duel monsters that a lot of kids at her school don't play with her, since it's very likely she would win. That's why she looks forward to dueling Anna, since she isn't afraid to duel her." Zack said.
"Wait. This isn't the first time, Anna and Mia dueled each other?" Weiss asked.
"Yep. So far, they had so many duels, I lost track of wins and losses of the duels." Zack said.
"So Anna lost and won against Mia before. So Anna knows Mia's deck already." Blake said.
"Not quite. Mia and Anna are constantly editing their decks from time to time, to see which playstyle they would prefer and how to improve it." Zack explained.
Team RWBY just looked at Mia and Anna, who stood face to face with each other. They then saw that both duelist acknowledge each other.
Turn 8: Mia Aegis
Anna Yuno: 1500LP vs. Mia Aegis: 2100LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 3 vs Mia Aegis Hand 0
"My turn now Anna! I draw! First I'll Gemini Summon Chthonian Emperor Dragon, by giving up my normal summon." Mia declared, as Chthonian Emperor Dragon was surrounded by a red aura.
"Alright Gearfried! Let Anna have it! PHOENIX ERUPTION BLADE!" Mia yelled.
Gearfried then jumped into the air, and came back down slamming his two swords on the ground, sending a wave of fire at Anna.
"I activate the effect of Swift Scarecrow that is in my hand! Whenever I'm attack directly, I can discard this card to negate the attack and end the battle-phase!" Anna yelled.
Swift Scarecrow
Level 1: Attribute Earth
Machine/Effect
ATK: 0 DEF: 0
A Scarecrow like figure then came flying out of a blue portal. Unlike most scarecrows, this one was metallic. Its entire body was connected on a yellow like metal strand, and had a jet booster on the lower part of his body. It also had two yellow braces on it upper body with bolts. The top portion of his body was gray and dark grey in the middle, with its shoulders being two blue cylinder connectors, with robotic arms. Its head resembled a metallic witch, (not the ones with the pointy nose), as it wore a witch hat, with red sunglasses, and had some green hair. For weaponry, it wielded two sticks. The scarecrow then charged towards the flames, and caused an explosion upon collision. The explosion, caused Phoenix Gearfried and Chthonian Emperor Dragon to guard and withdraw from the battle.
"What is up with these Scarecrows negating attacks? Maybe we should try throwing a scarecrow at an incoming attack and see if it works." Yang suggested.
"Yang. That is a horrible idea." Weiss said.
"Come on Weiss. It sounds pretty fun. I could go get the scarecrow from my garage, and you can try and hit me with everything you've got, while I protect myself with the Scarecrow." Zack said.
"While it that does sound tempting, I'm still going to refuse." Weiss said.
"Well, at least Anna had something up her sleeve. Let's just hope she draws something good." Blake said.
"Well Anna, looks like you manage to get out of that one. But next time you won't be so lucky." Mia said.
"This is nothing! No matter how hard you hit me, I'm just going to bounce back!" Anna yelled.
"Then come at me Anna. I know you don't give up. I end my turn." Mia said.
Turn 9: Anna Yuno
Anna Yuno: 1500LP vs Mia Aegis: 2100LP
Anna Yuno Hand: 2 vs Mia Aegis Hand: 1
(Play Passionate Duelist)
"I never give up. Glad you know that, because I'm going to go beyond the limit! I draw!" Anna said, in a more serious tone.
When she looked at in her hand, she connected the dots, or cards, in her head for victory.
"I'm going to end this duel right now! I play the spell card Monster Reborn! Now I can revive one monster from any of our graveyards. But there is only one monster that I have in mind. Return! Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose." Anna yelled.
Monster Reborn
Spell Card: Normal
Monster Reborn showed a an emblem symbol with a round feather like object on the top, with a red gem in the middle, with a sharp like object pointing down, with several lines attached to it. (Or you can say it looks like an ankh symbol. Seriously, what is that emblem?). A black portal then appeared in front of Anna, as Ruby then emerged and entered a combat stance.
"Good to have you back Ruby." Anna said.
"Good to be back Anna. So what now?" Ruby said.
"Now we turn this duel around. I play the Equip Spell Mage Power! Now Ruby gains 500 attack points for every spell and trap card I have on the field!" Anna yelled.
Mage Power
Spell Card: Equip
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 2500ATK + 500ATK = 3000ATK
Mage power appeared on the field, empowering Ruby with its magical might.
"I activate Gearfried's effect! I'm bringing back my Blazewing Butterfly back to the field in defense mode! Sorry Anna, but even if you set another facedown spell or trap and use Ruby's ability, it won't be enough to beat me." Mia said.
"I told you. I…no…we are ending this duel right now! I activate the Equip spell Card Fighting spirit! Now for every monster that you control, Ruby gains 300 attack points for every monster that you control. There are three monsters on your field, so that equals 900 attack points! Also, since I have another spell card on my field, Ruby gains another 500 attack points.
Fighting Spirit
Spell Card: Equip
Red Rose Huntress: Ruby Rose: 3000ATK + 300ATK + 300ATK + 300ATK + 500ATK = 4400ATK
Fighting Spirit showed a swordsman in armor, and a tattered cape, being imbued with power, and was going to go head to head with three roman soldiers. Ruby's Crescent Rose then started to glow in a bright yellow aura, as it started to emit sparks of energy. Ruby then felt the magical energy of the spells flowing through her body making her aura and semblance stronger. For a moment, her eyes were glowing, and a storm of rose petals blew around her.
"Let's do this." Ruby said, now filled with energy and confidence.
"Right on Ruby! Now attack Phoenix Gearfried! ROSE DANCE!" Anna yelled.
Ruby then used her semblance to get up close the Gearfried, who used his swords to parry Ruby's strikes with her Scythe.
"Ruby's effect activates! Whenever she attacks a monster with 2000 or more attack points, she can battle another monster! So Ruby is also attacking Chthonian Emperor Dragon. Also, as an added reminder, damage calculation is applied at the same time for both battles, so Ruby gets to keep her addition 900 attack points." Anna said.
Ruby Chthonian Dragon then flew into the air, and shot multiple Fire Blasts at Ruby, but she weaved and dodged the blast of fire. Gearfried then charged towards Ruby, swinging his two blades downward, as Ruby parried both blades and struck back with all her might. She then pointed used her Scythe to ascend into the air, by firing at the ground, and then used her semblance to attack Chthonian Emperor Dragon with multiple consecutive slashes. She then directed her attention towards Gearfried, and turned into a flurry of rose petals, and struck Gearfried with an attack show powerful that his swords broke. Ruby then landed on her feet and remained still. Gearfried then fell to his knees, and Chthonian Emperor Dragon fell back to the ground with a thud, as they then both shattered.
Mia Aegis: 2100LP – 650LP – 1000LP = 450LP
"Since Ruby destroyed two of my monsters using her own ability, I take 500 points of damage due to her effect." Mia said.
Ruby then took aim and fired a round at Mia, depleting the last of her life points.
Mia Aegis: 450LP to 0LP
Duel Over
Winner: Anna Yuno
"Oh well. Guess I lost this time." Mia said sadly.
"Don't worry sis. I have to say that duel was pretty intense, and probably one of your most greatest. You fought well kid." Zack said comforting his sister.
"Thanks Zack. You know, at times like these, I'm proud to admit that you're my brother." Mia said hugging her brother.
"Aw don't sweat it. Besides, I'm not the only one who enjoyed your dueling." Zack said as he gestured towards team RWBY, who were walking up to the two siblings.
"I must say, your dueling style is both forceful and resourceful at the same time. You are quite unique Ms. Aegis." Weiss said.
"Savor the feeling Mia, because this is as close as Weiss can complement someone." Yang said, while Weiss just glared at her.
"I'm just glad you our friend. Ever since we got here, almost everyone that duel us wanted to kill us. I think you're the first person we duel for fun with." Blake said.
"Glad to know. Although it was a shame I didn't get a chance to battle against the rest of you. I'm sure your abilities would have been fun to fight against." Mia said.
"Well, there is always next time. Remember, we can always duel each other whenever we visit each other." Anna said walking over to Mia, with Ruby, who is still in Synchro form.
"Thanks Anna. I'm glad there's someone who's not afraid to duel me. Seriously, I just don't get why no one else wants to duel me." Mia said, thinking about the subject.
A vortex of rose petals then encased Ruby turning her back into her tuner form.
"Mia! Your cards are so amazing! Can I see your Phoenix Gearfried card again?" Ruby asked.
"Sure thing. Just be careful with it. It's my favorite card." Mia said giving Ruby the card.
"He even looks cool when he is just on a card." Ruby said, fangirling at the card.
"I wonder if there is a Hunter on Remnant who looks like this." Weiss said.
"If there is, then I would want to meet him." Yang said.
"If you did, we would have to make sure you guys don't accidentally burn down the area." Blake said.
"Um Anna. No offense, but your deck didn't seem to be really unique." Mia said.
"What do you mean Mia?! Anna's deck is amazing!" Ruby yelled.
"Yes, but while it is amazing, it just didn't leave much of an impact on me. It felt like I was playing against any average Synchro deck. You guys come from a different dimension, so shouldn't there be cards exclusive to you?" Mia asked.
Team RWBY was stunned from Mia's question. She wasn't saying that the deck was bad, but rather it didn't felt unique or memorable. Anna didn't want to admit it, but Mia was right. Her deck was just a normal Synchro deck with team RWBY added in the mix.
"Well, I do have one trap card, and I guess that isn't enough." Anna said.
"Plus, we don't know where the other support cards are? I found that card in the train yard where we found Blake." Zack said.
"Well, the best thing you could do, is make your deck as highly as compatible with your new friends. Until then, make your deck the best Huntress deck there is." Mia said.
"As motivational as those words sounded, it's still surprising to hear it come out of a twelve year old's mouth." Blake said.
"I still can't believe you're three years younger than me." Ruby said.
Everybody laughed at the moment they were having, until Mia realized something.
"Wait, something is not right." Mia said.
"What do you mean sis?" Zack asked.
"Usually at moment like these, something is about to happen in this family, and it should be happening right about…." Mia said.
"OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO!" Drake yelled from the house.
"…now." Mia said.
"How did you know?" Weiss asked.
"When you live with a family like mine, you learn how to survive the unexpected." Mia said.
"Can you teach me? It would be really make my life easier." Weiss said, as she shifted her eyes towards her team. Mostly Ruby.
"Maybe next time. Now let's go see what happened." Mia said, as she really did not want to get involve.
When they enter the house, what they saw was quite unexpected as Mia predicted. Victoria was holding Miko back, as Miko appeared to be in a very angry mood, while Drake was trying to apologize to her.
"YOU LEFT THE WATER RUNNING BACK AT THE HOUSE!?" Miko yelled.
"Miko I understand you're mad, but please don't strangle your husband for something like this." Victoria said, trying her hardest not to let go.
"YOU DID WHAT?!" Mia yelled.
"Heh. Typical dad. So what happened anyway?" Zack said smiling at his family.
"Your older brother Daniel happened to call me on the phone, and said that he saw our house was flooded with water through the camera at the house." Drake said, in panic.
"And apparently, your father happened to be in such a rush to come here, that he left the faucet turned on back our house!" Miko said angrily.
"Zack! Can you calm your mother down please?" Drake asked.
"Don't worry I'm on it." Zack said walking over to his mother.
Team RWBY was taken back of how Miko was acting. She looked like she wanted to kill someone.
"I thought you said your mother was easygoing." Yang said, towards Mia.
"I forgot to mention she goes through several mood swings, if the conditions are met." Mia explained.
Zack then came up to her mother and then patting her back.
"It's okay mom. Everything is going to be okay. Think about happy things, like kittens, butterflies or how cute Mia is." Zack said, calming his mother down.
"ZACK!" Mia yelled in embarrassment.
"Why thank you Zack. I'm feeling much better now." Miko said, as she quickly reverted back to her calm personality.
"Okay. That just happened." Yang said confused.
"That's what I said when I saw something like this for the first time. It was when Drake got a promotion. Miko started crying tears of joy, hugging her husband so hard, that Daniel, Zack and Mia had to pry her off of him." Anna said, remembering that moment. She never seen that many tears shed in her life, let alone just under 5 minutes.
After Miko completely calmed down, Drake then slapped his cheeks with his hands to get himself psyched up.
"Alright! We've wasted enough time! AEGISES ASSEMBLE! TO THE CAR!" Drake yelled, as he ran out the door to get his car ready.
"Come along kids. We have to fix your father's mistake now." Miko said, as she then followed her husband.
"Well, until next time we meet. It was really nice meeting you." Mia said, shaking the hands of each of the members of team RWBY.
"It was also a pleasure meeting you. I feel so relieve that there is someone in this world who acts properly than most people I know." Weiss said.
"Things sure heated up in that last match. Come over and hang out with us again." Yang said.
"Our duel is one that we'll remember. We thank you for that." Blake said.
"Good luck with your problem." Ruby said.
"Well, see ya later guys. Zack out!" Zack said, as he walked away.
"Goodbye Zack. It was nice having you over." Anna said
"Have a nice night you two." Victoria said waving her hand at the two.
Zack and Mia then walked out of the door, and left the household. The Aegis family then left to save their house from being an indoor ocean. Victoria suddenly let out a deep breath, as she looked exhausted.
"You okay Vic?" Anna asked.
"I'm fine. It's just those two kept asking me questions about why Zack was in bandages, and why you look like you were in a boxing match. Do you know how hard it is to lie in front of a cop and a woman who has temporary mood swings?!" Victoria said.
"Wow. I'm sorry you have to cover us all the time." Anna said.
"Oh don't worry about that. As long as you and your friends are okay, then I'm happy for you." Victoria said.
"Thanks. I'm glad I can count on you." Anna said.
"By the way, I made a cake while you guys were dueling. Try some!" Victoria said, grabbing a slice of cake.
"Don't mind if I do." Ruby said, as she grabbed a slice.
"Ruby! Don't…" Anna said.
Ruby then took a bite of the cake, as her lips then puckered up.
"It tastes sour." Ruby said.
"…eat it yet." Anna finished.
Curious, the rest of team RWBY and Anna then took a bite from the cake, and the taste was sour.
"Victoria, what did you add in this cake?" Anna said, puckering her lips.
"I was trying out a new recipe, by adding pickle plums inside the cake. Cooking is an area of exploration, with many possibilities." Victoria said.
"Victoria. Not all possibilities are meant to be explored." Anna said.
"I think it taste great. I feel like I journeyed through the cosmos." Yang said, enjoying the sour taste of the cake.
"Of course you do. Anyway, I think I'll pass." Weiss said, heading up to Anna's room.
"I agree. I just want to enjoy a peaceful, calm, and Grimmless night." Blake said, stretching her arms.
"You should get to bed Anna. You have school tomorrow." Victoria said.
"Alright. Come on girls, let's go to bed." Anna said.
"I wonder what the Grim are doing." Ruby said.
"I wouldn't worry about that right now. Let's just get some sleep for tomorrow. I'm beat." Anna said.
(Topaz District)
The Topaz district was the busiest area of Jewel city, with several marketplaces, restaurants, Jewel stores and other business areas. However, due to the disappearance of several women, the place was almost vacant as most women were afraid of becoming targets. Sector Security forces were on patrol watching for anything out of the ordinary, but had no luck. In a certain area, three figures were walking together, two males and one female. They appear to resemble 17 year olds. One of them was wearing black pants, with a black uniform jacket with a red tie. He had really long hair that spread out, with the end of his hairs being pointy. He had narrow red eyes, and his face was showed little expression. This is Shinrai: the Grimm of Fate. The second male was wearing dark red pants, and a dark red jacket, with a black shirt depicting a Grim Reaper who was equipped with a scythe. He had black hair, with some it pointing downward that was covering his forehead, and slightly covered his eyes revealing only just a little of his red eyes. He had an impatient expression, and appeared to be frustrated. This is Hidou: the most cruelest and dreadful Grimm of all who came to Jewel city. The female was wearing white short shorts, with a ring like belt. She also wore a blue tank top with a Camilla flower design on it. She also wore a sliver necklace with a dagger like pendant design. She had pink hair with back lines on it and had red eyes. This is Siren: Grimm of Beauty. She hated that title, so she usually calls herself the Rogue Grimm, but a lot of Grimm call her Grimm of Beauty, and it annoyed her every single day of her life. These three are the Grimm Ops. Some of the fearsome of Grimm. Right now, they are on their mission that Liege assigned them to. Unlike the other Grimm, these three look more human like, rather than having dark skin, or wearing Grimm armor. They wore natural clothing, and had normal human skin, with the only Grimm trait they possessed were their red eyes. They were human like eyes though.
"Why in the world are in this crummy place?" Hidou asked, as he sounded frustrated.
"We are here to accomplish our mission." Shinrai said, in the most monotone voice you could ever hear.
"It was rhetorical! Ugh. Everything is this dimension is boring! I thought I was going to get into the action. But here I am going on errands as a stupid errand Grimm!" Hidou said in anger, restraining himself
"Would you shut up? You're not the only one here that's not please about being here." Siren said, annoyed with Hidou's attitude.
"Well I don't see you helping us with our mission. What do you think Shinrai?" Hidou said.
"I'm sensing such negativity in the air. How about you my friend?" Shinrai said, as he was talking to his personal small Grimm bird.
Unlike most Grimm, this was the only Grimm that came to the world in his normal form from Remnant. Like most Grimm, he had a skull like mask on his head with red markings. This is Shinrai's companion, Jay, a tiny bird Grimm.
"…" Jay was silent.
"I see. So we should ask some humans about the place. Very well, let's proceed." Shinrai said, as his friend flew off.
Shinrai then proceed to walk away to find someone to talk to, while Hidou and Siren just stared at him.
"What a strange Grimm he is." Hidou said.
"But he is capable." Siren said.
"How do you know? That guy doesn't even know who he is. All he knows is that he came to this world with us, and doesn't know anything else." Hidou said.
"I've seen him duel once. It was quite interesting. Unlike most Grimm, he already had a deck in the beginning, and sometimes, it seems like he talks with his cards." Siren explained.
"Hey. Looks like he knows something. Let's see what he's know." Hidou said walking up to Shinrai as Siren followed.
"So find anything Shinrai?" Siren asked.
"No. The woman I spoken to was silent." Shinrai spoke.
"Guess she mistaken you for a play boy." Hidou said.
"She felt strange. Devoid of emotion, no fear, no joy, no sadness, no anger. It looked as though she had no will. Her eyes were blank, and she just wandered off." Shinrai said.
"Wait. She had no emotions at all?" Siren asked confused.
"I know it. I have a unique ability to sense what humans are feeling, being either joy, sadness, anger, disgust, or fear. I'm also highly sensitive of feeling a person's despair. Also her eyes glowed purple for some reason." Shinrai explained.
"Sounds like we found our lead. Where did she go Shinrai?" Hidou said, as he thought he was going to finally do something deadly.
Shinrai pointed in the direction he saw the girl walked off too. The trio of Grimm then ran towards the direction, and found a girl walking towards the nearby area. At times, she paused and looked around. The three Grimm then decided to follow her in cardboard boxes to avoid being seen. After 20 minutes of sore legs and sneaking around they finally see her entered a small building.
"You sure that's the girl Shinrai?" Hidou whispered.
"Yes." Shinrai responded.
Siren was unable to see anything, and bumps her box into Hidou's box.
"Hey! Watch it!" Hidou said quietly, but with anger.
"I can't see anything through this stupid box! Who in their right minds would use this for stealth missions?" Siren questioned.
"You guys do realize we can take these off, right?" Shinrai asked.
Upon hearing this, Hidou and Siren quickly threw their boxes off into the corner, accidentally scaring a cat causing it to screech.
"I thought my legs were going to pop. I hope this mission was worth the pain." Siren said, stretching her legs.
"You look shorter than usually." Hidou teased at Siren.
Siren just ignored him and walked towards the building. She was suddenly grabbed on the shoulder by Shinrai, who held her back. He then shook his head and put his lips on his fingers to tell her not to rush in. She just nodded her head, and Shinrai went up first. Hidou and Shinrai then snuck slowly towards the door. Hidou then raised three fingers, to signal the timing of how they should go in. After each finger disappeared Hidou was about to ram to door open with his shoulder. Shinrai however just opened the door, and Hidou fell to the ground, since he was expecting to hit the door.
"Shinrai! What were you doing!?" Hidou asked, as he was furious.
"You said we would open the door on three through those signals. Why are mad then?" Shinrai asked.
"I meant that we ram the door open! Like how cops do in TV shows back on Remnant." Hidou said.
"How did a Grimm like you manage to watch a cop show in Remnant?" Siren asked.
"Oh, I look through the window of family and watch their TV show before killing them." Hidou said.
"Really? Anyway, what is this place?" Siren said.
The three Grimm then examine the place. The room was white on the inside. It had several benches for sitting, a couple of plants, a noisy fan, and a Mahogany desk in the center of the room. There were three door in the back, one label restroom, cell room, and break room. The desk also had several papers on top, a globe, a computer and a name plate that said "Austin R. Tip". The Grimm then notice a star like palate hanging in the back of the room, with the words "Sheriff" on it. Just then, the door from the Breakroom then opened. A man wearing a sheriff uniform then came out. His face was rough, with some facial hair on his chin. He had small black eyes and his hair was brown, messy and short. His name tag was the same as the name plate. The three Grimm, then realized that his was the man in charge of this place.
"Why hello there. Is there something I can do for you kids?" Austin asked.
Siren then pushed her way past Shinrai and Hidou, and changed her personality to one of cheer and her voice became more girly.
"Why hello there mister. We just saw a girl walking into this building, and we just wanted ask her to sign a petition for young teens. Why do I even bother talking in this stupid voice? It sounds plain ridiculous. I may not have eyes in the back of my head, but I can see that smug look on Hidou's face right now." Siren said and thought.
Hidou did had a smug look on his face, as he enjoyed seeing Siren acting like this. Shinrai just had a neutral expression on his face as he didn't really care how Siren acted.
"Man, seeing her like this for some reason makes me feel better about myself." Hidou whispered to Shinrai.
"I don't get it." Shinrai responded.
"Best we keep it that way." Hidou replied.
"Oh, that there was my daughter. Pretty girl she is. Best you run along now. A lot of women been disappearing lately around these parts. I've been getting request non-stop about it." Austin said.
"Really then? Is it okay if you get her for us then? Really want to get her opinion." Siren asked.
"Sure thing. Just let me get one thing." Austin said, as he then pulled out something from his pocket.
What he was holding was a pendant with what appeared to be a dark gem inside it. The gem then flashed a bright dark light in front of the three Grimm. However, they felt nothing.
"What was that?" Hidou asked.
Austin was taken back what Hidou said. He looked highly surprised for some reason. He then remained calm.
"I just realized that it's my daughter's curfew hour. I'm going to ask you all to leave now." Austin said.
Shinrai just stared at the man and then spoke.
"You're afraid. Aren't you?" Shinrai said, in chilling monotone voice.
"I beg your pardon?" Austin said.
"You're afraid of us. I can sense your emotions." Shinrai said.
"I don't know what you're talking about son. Will you please leave me, I have a lot to do tonight." Austin said.
"Then tell me this. What is the name of your daughter?" Shinrai asked.
Austin was silent for a moment and then spoke.
"Why would I give away the name of my own child? You kid have been bothering me non-stop. I'm asking you all to leave now." Austin said, as his voice had hints of aggression.
"You don't have to, because she isn't your daughter. Her name is Melissa Sawyer. I saw it on her purse, which appeared to be sew in with care from the mother. Her last name is different from yours." Shinrai said.
"That's because she prefers her mother's last name. Tip isn't a fun last name." Austin said.
"There's more. She also happen to drop her phone while she was walking. I looked at the cover screen, and it show the mother and father. This man on the phone resembles nothing like you. Don't try to lie through this one either. This was taken when she was five years old, and the mother and father had cone hats labeling their relationship towards their daughter, not yours. So why are you afraid of us?" Shinrai said.
Austin only remained silent as he looked down at his table.
"Oi! Say something! What really going on here?!" Hidou yelled, slamming his hand on the desk.
"Pesky kids. I never liked them." Austin said, with rage, pulling something out of his pocket.
"Shinrai! Look out!" Siren yelled, jumping on top of Shinrai, getting him on the ground.
Austin then threw a smoke bomb, and then made a run for it.
"Smoke *cough* *cough*. Filthy human." Hidou yelled.
When the smoke cleared, the three Grimm could see everything once more. Siren was going to wish she moved during the confusion, because now she was going to be mocked by Hidou as long as he lived.
"Hey, *laughs* Siren." Hidou said, starting to laugh.
"What?" Siren asked.
"What is that!?" Hidou says, pointing at her
Siren then looks down, and realizes that she is still on top of Shinrai. Shinrai wasn't to concern about their situation, actually, he didn't even know what Hidou was laughing about or why Siren was blushing so much. Siren then got up and scooted away from Shinrai. This only made Hidou laugh even louder.
"BWAAHHHAAHAHHAHA! THAT WAS PRICELESS! My only regret is that I don't have a camera." Hidou said, trying to catch his breath.
Siren then got mad. She then grabbed a nearby book, and slammed it on Hidou head.
"SIREN CHOP!" Siren yelled, leaving a rectangle imprint in Hidou's head.
"You…didn't had to hit that hard." Hidou said, holding his head in pain.
Siren then turned her attention towards Shinrai, who just got up, and brushed some dirt off his cloths.
"This stays between you and me. Tell anyone, and I'll kill you." Siren said.
Shinrai only nodded, but he didn't really understood what happened. Hidou then got up and then got back on track.
"Arrgh. Where did that bastard go?! I really want to get back at him for pulling that stunt." Hidou said in anger.
Siren then began sniffing the air. She turned her head towards different directions.
"Since when did you become a dog?" Hidou asked, sarcastically.
"It's just one of my abilities. I can smell the fear that men give off. *sniff* Lonely, *sniff* scarred, *sniff* watches the TV as a hobby, *sniff* armed with a revolver and knife, *sniff* running for the next 15 minutes and well then take a 2 minute break before running again, *sniff* and appears he's going on an instant cup noddle diet due to salary cuts. He also uses one these duel monsters deck." Siren said.
"You got all that by smelling his fear?" Hidou asked.
"I can understand a whole a lot from men by smelling their fear. It appears his fear scent leads to here; underneath this rug." Siren said, pointing towards the rug.
Shinrai then removed the rug, revealing a cellar door. Hidou then opened the door, and the three Grimm teenagers proceeded down to the bottom and found a corridor. After what 20 minutes of walking. They then found a locked door. At first it wouldn't budge, but Hidou used all of his built up anger and kicked the door down. What they saw would have mortified any human being that looked upon the area. Being Grimm, they didn't had much of a reaction to the area. Women were locked up in a cage, with their arms and legs shackled against the wall. Their eyes were blank, as if they lost the will to think freely on their own. Shinrai recognized the girl he was talking to before. Just then a light then turned on the area.
"Lovely, isn't it? I to be honest, I wasn't expecting you to find this place." Austin's voiced echoed out.
The three Grimm then looked around being on guard. Siren sniffed the air trying to pinpoint him, but his stench of fear was everywhere.
"You three aren't normal. I could tell when I tried to use this Gem on you. Since you won't be alive, I suppose I can boast about how I was able to outsmart you three. This Gem here has the power to manipulate the minds of others. I then decided to use it on women, so I could sell them to greedy men. A beautiful women is what they want, and I'll give it to them at a high price." Austin said.
"So you're a Human salesman. I can't believe we have to waste our time with this guy. This has to be the lamest excuse of a sin that a human could do." Hidou said, unimpressed with what Austin was doing.
"Now if you don't mind, this is where your story ends." Austin said, from the shadows.
Austin then fired two shots and each Grim with his revolver. Before the bullets hit their mark, Jay then came flying through the corridor and an intense speed, deflecting the bullets, with his Grimm like strength, protecting the three Grimm teens. He then landed on Shinrai's hand.
"*tweet* *chirp* *tweet*" Jay said, and only Shinrai understood him.
"Yes, I will try to be more careful next time." Shinrai replied softly.
"So I owe my life to a bird. That's just splendid." Hidou said.
Siren then spotted the shadow figure of Austin in the shadows and then reaches in her pocket, holding a diamond cube like object with a dark orb inside.
"What is that thing?" Austin said, while running.
"Shinrai, deal with this guy. He isn't worth my time. Selling women. What a joke." Hidou said, in a displeased tone. This wasn't really interesting to him.
"Here you go. If you need us, we'll be waiting upstairs." Siren said giving Shinrai the cube, as she then walked back outside.
"Hey! I'm not going to let you leave!" Austin yelled revealing himself.
"Darkness Barrier…activate." Shinrai said, crushing the cube.
As Hidou and Siren walked away, a field of darkness then enveloped the both Shinrai and Austin.
"What's going on here?" Austin asked.
"Now, its game time." Shinrai said.
"A game?" Austin replied.
"You'll duel me, and if you win, we'll keep quiet. However, if you lose, you'll suffer the consequences." Shinrai said.
"Fine then. I'll have you know that I used to be a sector security officer, and I made several arrestments, and I never lost a duel. It wasn't until I discovered this Gem, where I was able to brainwash the chief into give me the position of sheriff. I also used it to make sure that no one figured out about his place." Austin said, as he ready his duel disk.
"I see. Jay. Let's go." Shinrai said.
Jay then responded by turning into a black apparition which then surrounded the left arm of Shinrai, turning into a duel disk. This duel disk had the main board in the form of a black bird wing, and the tablet had a bird like design on it. (Don't get the wrong idea of what deck he uses).
"What just happened? Must be a mind game trick. Hope you're ready to lose kid." Austin said.
"We'll see. Game start." Shinrai said.
"DUEL!" Both players yelled.

For some reason, his right leg had more diamonds than his left.

I can check the top card of my deck, and it's a Normal Spell Card, I can send it to the graveyard, and I can activate it during my next Main Phase. The card is Graceful Charity, so I can activate it next turn. I play two cards facedown and activate the field spell Clock Tower Prison." Shinrai said, doing all of the following actions.
(Meanwhile upstairs.)
Hidou was raiding the fridge seeing what the guy had to eat.
"Well what do you know? This guy really is on an instant cup noodle diet. Well he won't be needing these anymore after Shinrai mops the floor with him." Hidou said, making a packet of cup noodles for himself.
After boiling a pot of water and following the directions, he sat down on a nearby couch. But before he could take a bite, the ground started to shake, and objects began falling off shelfs. Hidou was startled by this, and wonder what was happening. Suddenly a building like structure rose from the ground completely catching Hidou by surprise.
"WWAAAAAAHHHH!" Hidou yelled.
Siren then came to the break room to see what happening. What she saw made her laugh. Hidou had his underwear hung from a pole, and he had a pile of cup noodles on his head. Siren then just burst into laughter.
"BWAHHAHAHHAAAHAHHAA! NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL PRICELESS!" Siren said, trying to catch her breath.
"To bad no one will believe you." Hidou said, annoyed.

"Huh?" Austin said, as he actually felt fear.
(Play Yugioh GX The Shadow Duelist sound track)

"What are you saying!? They have no will! I stole it with this Gem!" Austin said, holding his Gem up.
"At first I didn't feel anything, but now that I'm closer, I can feel all the emotions of hatred, anger, and sadness of those behind those bars." Shinrai said.

"You didn't take damage!" Austin yelled.
"Another effect of Dreadmaster." Shinrai said.

"You fell for my trap card! Reveal Mirror Force! Now all attack position monsters you control are destroyed! Hate to be you now!" Austin said, smiling wickedly.
Dasher then kicked a mirror barrier, causing a barrage of energy to destroy Shinrai's monsters.
"Hah! Guess you're nothing but talk. You're saying I'm scared? It should be you who should be scared. You have nothing." Austin said.

"No." Austin said.
Drilldark got closer.
"Please." Austin begged.
Drilldark was face to face with him.
"Have mercy." Austin cried.
Drilldark then stabbed him through the chest injuring him severally.

"The Darkness Barrier not only lets us battle, but it also reveals the true nature of humans." Shinrai said.
Shinrai then raised his right arm, as it then morphed into the Black-Shot device. The palm of the device then revealed a red lizard like evil eye, and it shinned.
"The gate of despair, has opened." Shinrai said, as his eyes glowed red.
"WHO ARE YOU?!" Austin screamed as the red light enveloped him.
Suddenly, astral images of women, who looked demonic began to circle Austin as he was then grabbed, and surrounded by the angry spirits of women.
"NO! STAY BACK! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Austin yelled in horror, as he went insane.
"When women are not meant to be your items. Hold them like slaves, and then prepare to face their anger." Shinrai said.
(End Cornered Duelist)
The Black-shot device on Shinrai's arm emitted a beeping noise as the top portion opened revealing the Dark Gem that Austin had. He then noticed that some of the women started to regain consciousness. Shinrai then walked towards the cell. The women were scared of him. They then saw him pick up the keys from the Sheriff, and came towards the cage. He then opened the cage.
"Leave, and don't comeback." Shinrai said.
The women then ran out of the cage stampeding all over Shinrai, as he lay flat on the ground. They all then went to contact sector security of what has happened. Jay then detached himself from Shinrai's arm and went back into to bird form.
"*Tweet* *tweet*" Jay said.
"They were confused, but yet relieved to leave this place. I felt it through their feet." Shinrai said, as he lay on the floor.
"Um… excuse me sir?" a female voice said in the middle.
Shinrai and Jay then turned their heads towards a girl who walked up to them. Shinrai recognized the girl. It was Melissa Sawyer.
"What do you desire?" Shinrai asked, as he sat up.
"I just want to say thank you. I was dreaming that, someone was fighting to save me. It was real. A dream come true. Thank you." Melissa said.
"You feel, happy. You'll be happier with your mother and father." Shinrai said.
"Mom and Dad! They must be worried sick about me! I have to go. Thank you." Melissa said, as she then ran towards the door, but then stop.
"Wait! What is your name?" Melissa asked.
"Shinrai. By the way this is yours" Shinrai said, giving her phone back
"Shinrai. That's a strange name. But I'll remember it as long as I live. Goodbye." Melissa said, as she then left the building.
Shinrai then got up and brushed his cloths. He and Jay then proceeded upstairs, to get Siren and Hidou. He then found Siren and Hidou hanging upside down in a mess of what use to be the Break room.
"Shinrai. Help me. Please." Siren cried, streaming tears from her eyes.
"And make it quick!" Hidou yelled.
Shinrai then walked towards his Grimm allies and then yanked them down from the ceiling.
"Thanks. So did you get what we needed?" Siren asked.
Shinrai then held out his hand and showed the dark gem object in his hand.
"Dark Dust. Nice work man. Now can we go home now?" Hidou asked.
"Sure. I just have to leave a note of a mentally insane man, who kidnap women using hypnosis, is in the underground room." Siren said, making the note, and leaving it on the desk.
The three Grimm then walked out of the building together and then headed back towards their lair to tell Liege the news.
"Nice work Shinrai. You should be proud of yourself." Siren said, patting Shinrai on the back.
"You know, if all humans are going to be like this in this dimension, then this place, is nothing more than a waste of time." Hidou said.
"Oh Shinrai. Check out this photo of Hidou I took, while you were dueling." Siren said, grabbing her camera.
"HEY! Don't showed that to him!" Hidou yelled, as he then try to grab it.
"Oh yeah. Come and get it!" Siren said, as she ran off with the camera.
"YOU ARE SO DEAD!" Hidou yelled as he chased after Siren.
Shinrai just looked at his comrades and didn't know why they were fighting. He only felt embarrassment from Hidou, and playfulness from Siren. Jay then landed on his shoulder and talked to him.
"*Chirp* *Tweet*" Jay said.
"Why do you say they are like children?" Shinrai asked, as he walked towards his companions who were fighting.
End of Chapter 6
Bonus Section
Instead of Anna and Zack doing there "Winning Card" section, it was Hidou and Siren instead.
"Welcome to Grimm inside look. Today, we'll go over about the Grimm that came to the dimension of Jewel city." Siren said.
"Are we really doing this?" Hidou asked.
"Deal with it. Anyway, Grimm are creatures from Remnant, and we have crossed over to this dimension to accomplish our goal." Siren said.
"Don't expect us to say it. I also doubt your human mind could comprehend it." Hidou said, mocking the reader.
"The Grimm that arrived here took on humanoid forms. Grimm retained their certain aspects such as their dark aura, bone armor. However, they also have certain parts of their body, or armor that depicts of what they were in Remnant. A humanoid Grimm Beowolf, would have fangs of a wolf, or claws of a wolf. A Stalker would have sharp like finger tips, and multiple eyes." Siren explained.
"Were not telling you what we are. Sucks to be you reader." Hidou said, pulling down his eye and sticking his tongue at the reader.
"Hidou. Please stop breaking the fourth wall to just insult the readers." Shinrai said, dragging him away.
Author Notes
After several weeks of grueling work. I've finally finished the seventh chapter of Yugioh RWBY: Chronicles! Sorry I haven't been updating lately. With the holidays out, there is a lot to do, fun and busy. However, I have bad news. School is starting up, and my grades aren't so stylish. So I need to focus all my efforts into my work. I won't be able to work on this until sometime in March, so please be patient. I'm still a high school student. Anyway, originally, I was going to give Mia the Destiny Heroes to use, I came to the conclusion that it didn't work with her personality. So I choose Gemini monsters. Mia acts calm and patient. However, when she duels, she unleashes her inner Aegis, becoming more aggressive. Mia is like the odd ball out of her family, so she has a hard time dealing with all of the shenanigans that happens in her family. Originally, Shinrai would have just been a lone wolf. I then decided to add two more characters to interact with Shinrai, as their personalities mixed together. Hidou and Siren will duel in the future, and I will introduce Daniel Aegis in the future. So tell me what you think about these characters. Anyway, next chapter, Anna will duel if a new deck, based around the Huntresses. I appreciate all the suggestions you sent me for Huntress support cards, but I also want to add my own style and charm to the deck, to make it unique from other decks. That's all for now, so wish me luck with my school work, and I'll probably see you sometime in March. Maxgundam1998 out.
