Pen: "What are we going to do?! Brush and Pencil can't find Fable and the show is suppose to start in two minutes!"
Paper: "Calm down. It's not our fault Fable's social life is a mess."
Quill: "Exactly. So as lead organizer of this event, I shall take to the stage!"
(Before anyone could object, Quill hops onto the main stage.)
Paper: "Wait a minute..."
Pen: "What's wrong?"
Paper: "Wasn't there a reason why Quill wasn't allowed to host?"
Pen: "Uhh..."
(Both Pen and Paper realized at the exact same time.)
Pen / Paper: "STOP HIM!"
Quill: "Welcome everyone to-AHHH!"
(Paper tackles Quill to the ground. From his hand a remote goes flying across the stage. As Paper begins to drag Quill backstage, Pen tends to the audience.)
Pen: "Hi, guys! Sorry about that. Paper needed to talk to Quill..."
Paper (Off Stage): "What did you do, you little gremlin!"
Quill (Off Stage): "I wasn't going to pull a prank this time! I swear!"
Paper (Off Stage): "Yeah, I believe that just as much as I believe Pendulums are still playable in the new format. What did you do?!"
Pen: "A-anyway, we're thankful to have you all here. On with the show!"
(Pen runs backstage to help out Paper. Meanwhile, from the other side of the stage, Angelina looks back at the Arc-V Actors.)
Angelina: "I think that's our cue?"
(The lights dim, leaving just one in the center. Angelina steps into the spotlight.)
Angelina: "Hello and welcome to the first act of this play. We have a lot planned for this evening so we hope you all enjoy. I'm sure as most of you should know, we're going in order of the Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V Shipping List on Tumblr. First up, we have Aceshipping! The shipping name for Julia Krystal, Kit Blade, and Dipper O'rion! In this AU, Zuzu was never brought to the Synchro Dimension and Leo decides to take the fight to Standard. Let's see how this all plays out."
Ship Name: Aceshipping (Julia Krystal x Kit Blade x Dipper O'rion)
Name Reason: Named so because they are the aces of their respective fields at LDS.
For Our Future
"Julia! Julia, wait!" Zuzu shouted after her, but she didn't stop nor slow down. The first attack from the Fusion Dimension had struck. It came with no warning and the city was already in a state of panic within the first few minutes. All the Lancers regrouped at LDS, but Kit didn't show up. Declan went on with the meeting anyway, even though they were already down a member.
It turns out that the reason why Kit wasn't here was because the first attack had been located near the west side of town. The area where Kit lived. Memories of seeing Dipper's card flash through her mind. Julia's feet were moving before she could even collect her thoughts. Despite how dangerous it was she raced out into the streets and headed straight for the destruction.
Around her people screamed and buildings fell. She had gotten shoved by terrified civilians but she pushed forward. She had to make sure Kit was okay! They already lost Dipper! She couldn't lose him too!
She found him and her heart froze in her chest.
"Alright, Triple Ancient Gear Hunting Hound! Finish him off!"
"KIT!" She scream. The boy had his back to her, but when he hear his name he glance back. He didn't look afraid even though he knew the price for defeat. Julia swears she could have seen his lips twitch up into a smile and he mouth something to her, but it was all lost as his body was replace with a purple light and vanished.
Julia felt like she couldn't breathe as the masked invader pulled the card from his duel disk and fanned it like a polaroid picture.
"Friend of your's?" He asked, holding up the picture. There, in the frame, was Kit.
"Give him to me!" Julia order, taking a step forward. "Now!"
"Oh, yeah, sure. You can have him." The Obelisk member said, tucking the card back into his pocket. "If you can beat us in a duel." He activated his duel disk. Beside him, two more members joined. "But I feel inclined to warn you that the stakes in this duel are pretty high." Julia activated her own duel disk.
"I'll make you all pay!" Julia growled, adrenaline flowing through her veins, rage clouding her mind.
"Let's duel!" They all shouted together.
Obelisk Force vs. Julia
Field: Crossover (You can use Action Cards, but you can only have 1 Action Card in your hand.)
[Turn: 1]
Obelisk Force Member Red: 4000 LP [Hand: 5]
Obelisk Force Member Green: 4000 LP [Hand: 5]
Obelisk Force Member Blue: 4000 LP [Hand: 5]
Julia: 4000 LP [Hand: 5]
"I'll make the first move, and I'm going to summon my Gem-Tortoise(ATK: 1700, LV: 4)!" An brown, tortoise-like duel spirit appeared, orange gems sparkling. "When Gem-Tortoise is Normal Summoned I can add another Gem-Knight monster from my deck to my hand!" Julia searched through her deck until she found the card she was looking for and put it in her hand.
"Now it's my turn!" The Red member smirked as he drew a card. "First I'm going to summon Ancient Gear Hunting Hound (ATK: 1000, LV: 3)!" A mechanical bulldog jump onto the field. Julia readied herself. Shay had told them that the Obelisk Force used an Ancient Gear deck and relied on their Hunting Hounds. "And now I activate its effect! Since you control a monster, Hunting Hound is allowed to inflict 600 points of damage to you! Go, Canine Cannon!" The hound opened its mouth and flames erupted from it. The flames were so close, Julia could have sworn it singed the tips of her hair.

Obelisk Force Member Blue: 4000 LP [Hand: 5]
Julia: (4000 - 600) = 3400 LP [Hand: 5]
"Next I activate the Field Spell, Hunting Hound Doghouse!" On their side of the field a white fenced in yard appeared. In the background Julia could make out a simple house with a very large metal dog house in the corner with an equally as large dog bowl. "I end my turn."
"Why stop at one when I can summon another hound to join the pack?! Come forth, Ancient Gear Hunting Hound (ATK: 1000, LV: 3)!" The Green member says. Julia winces as another hound was brought to the field. She needed an Action Card. She raced for one that was beneath a car, but the Action Spell wasn't one she could use.
"Don't bother!" The Green member snickered. "With our Field Spell, if we control a Ancient Gear monster, you can't activate Spells or Traps during our turn or even target our monsters! Now fire, Canine Canon!"

Obelisk Force Member Red: 4000 LP [Hand: 4]

Obelisk Force Member Blue: 4000 LP [Hand: 5]
Julia: (3400 - 600) = 2800 LP [Hand: 5] [AC: 1]
"You were a fool to challenge us so openly! Now we're going to unleash the whole pack's wrath on you! I summon another Hunting Hound to the field (ATK: 1000, LV: 3)!" A third Hunting Hound appeared on the field, snarling. "Let's burn away some more of her life points! Canine Canon!"

Obelisk Force Member Blue: 4000 LP [Hand: 5]
Julia: (2800 - 600) = 2200 LP [Hand: 5] [AC: 1]
"And that's not all I'm doing, I activate the Spell, Ancient Gear Howl! Since I didn't declare an attack this turn, you take an extra 600 damage for each Ancient Gear monster that is on the field. We have 3, so that's 1800 points of damage!" The three hounds began to howl in unison, causing Julia to cover her ears at the shrill noise.

Julia: (2200 - 1800) = 400 LP [Hand: 5] [AC: 1]
Julia slowly stood up as the Blue member ended his turn with a face down.
"Face it, kid. You're as good as gone." The Red one spoke.
"Yeah. Maybe if you beg we'll end this duel quickly and make your carding short." The Green one added.
"That's the deal with people these days." The Blue one shrugged. "Always looking for revenge. If your friend had just chosen to hide like a rat, then maybe he would have manage to see another day." Julia's red eyes burn with hatred. She was going to make these three eat their words. She placed a hand on her deck.
"My move! I draw!" Julia knew she had the right cards in her hand. "I set the Pendulum Scale with Scale 2 Gem-Knight Tanzanite and Scale 8 Gem-Knight Beryl!" Two Gem-Knights appeared in her Pendulum Zones. "Now I can summon monsters between Levels 3 and 7! Rock of judgment and long life! Stone of happiness and sincerity! Swing the Pendulum of my soul! I Pendulum Summon! Gem-Knight Alexandrite (ATK: 1800, LV: 4)! Gem-Knight Garnet (ATK: 1900, LV: 4)! And Gem-Knight Amber (ATK: 1600, LV: 4)!"
"So this is the famous Pendulum Summon we've heard so much about." The Blue member said.
"Honestly, not that impressed." Green shrugged.
"Oh, trust me. I'm not aiming to impress." Julia said coldly. "I activate Gem-Knight Tanzanite's pendulum effect! Since I Special Summoned a Gem- monster to my field, I can send my Gem-Knight Fusion card from my hand to the Graveyard and draw 1 card!"
"A Fusion card? So you're a Fusion user like us?"
"I'm nothing like you. And I never will be. I use my deck for the good of all the dimensions." Julia said as she drew another card.
"What do you think we're doing? We're uniting the dimensions under one rule for the good of all of them!"
"Synchro? Xyz? Standard? Even Pendulum! They are all worthless in the face of Fusion!"
"You may claim that you stand for all dimensions, yet you only use the power of Fusion and Pendulum!" Julia looks at the final card she has in her hand and smirks.
"You couldn't be more wrong." That wiped the smiles off their faces.
"What are you talking about?"
"I activate the Spell, Absorb Fusion! When this card activates I get to add 1 Gem-Knight card from my deck to my hand and then I can Fusion Summon a Gem-Knight Fusion Monster from my Extra Deck by banishing its materials from my hand or field. I fuse my Gem-Tortoise with my Gem-Knight Lazuli!"
"Green gem that hides mysterious power! Gem beast with an impenetrable shell! In a whirlpool of light, combine to bring forth a new dazzling radiance! I Fusion Summon! Level 8! Gem-Knight Zirconia (ATK: 2900, LV: 8)!"
A giant knight with blue gem mallets for arms charges out of the Fusion Vortex.
"You activated my Trap, Dimensional Disruption! Since you brought a Fusion Monster out onto your field, you can't bring out a monster of the same type!"
"Which means you can't Fusion Summon anymore!"
"Oh, and did I forgot to mention that your monster's effects are negated?" The Trap card began to send out odd waves that force Zirconia to take a knee.
"Still think you have a chance against us?"
"Now I activate Gem-Knight Beryl's pendulum effect, allowing me to add my banished Gem-Tortoise back to my hand. I Normal Summon him back to the field and because of this I'm allowed to add another Gem-Knight monster to my hand."
"H-hey! Did you hear us?!" Julia chose to keep ignoring. She grab the card that she wanted from her deck. Her eyes flicker over to her Alexandrite and Amber.
"If you can learn Xyz from watching Dipper, then you can learn Synchro from watching me. Right?" Kit's voice echoes at her.
"I overlay my two Level 4 Alexandrite and Amber!"
"W-what?!"
"She's overlaying them?!"
"She can Xyz Summon?!" Julia thought back to Dipper. The excitement in his eyes when she showed him her new Xyz Monster.
"Xyz and Fusion! Now you're going to be unstoppable!"
"Oh? Are you actually admitting that I have better skills than you?" Julia mocked, causing Dipper to blush.
"W-what?! Of course not! You only know how to Xyz Summon because of my excellent teachings!" This cause Julia and Kit to chuckle as Dipper pouted. Those were simpler times back then.
"Gem with facets of day and night! Grand knight of protection and luck! In a shining network, overlay to bring forth a new stellar brilliance! I Xyz Summon! Rank 4! Gem-Knight Pearl (ATK: 2600, RANK: 4)!"
A pale warrior appeared from the network, wearing all white armor. Its massive arms crossed over its chest.
"N-no way!"
"Hold your ground! She can't take out all three of us!" Julia points her last card at the trio.
"Hold onto those words, because I'm about to make you choke on them. Since I control only Gem-Knight monsters, I can Special Summon the Tuner monster, Gem-Knight Peridot (ATK: 500, LV: 2)!"
"A Tuner monster?!"
"I tune my Level 2 Peridot with my Level 4 Tortoise and Level 4 Garnet!" Julia took a breath as her Peridot transform into two Synchro Gates.
"Evening emerald of strength! Gem beast with an impenetrable shell! Mesmerizing stone of living fire! In the harmonizing realm, bring forth a new sparkling flare! I Synchro Summon! Level 10! Gem-Knight Fluorite (ATK: 3000, LV: 10)!"
A new Gem-Knight appeared, wielding a large axe on one shoulder and dressed in blue armor. The Obelisk Force couldn't believe their eyes. Pendulum, Fusion, Xyz, and now Synchro.
"And I'm still not done. I activate Fluorite's first effect! When he's Synchro Summoned all Spell and Trap cards on your side of the field have their effects negated, including your Dimensional Disruption."
"T-this is bad!"
"You're telling me!"
"Hey, l-let's talk about this!"
"Save it!" Julia snarls. "I activate the Graveyard effect of my Gem-Knight Fusion. By banishing Gem-Knight Garnet, I can return it directly to my hand! Next, I activate my Fluorite's second effect! Since I added a card to my hand outside of my Draw Phase, I can Special Summon up to 2 banish Gem-Knight monsters so I'm bringing back Gem-Knight Lazuil (ATK: 600, LV: 1) and Gem-Knight Garnet (ATK: 1900, LV: 4)!" The two Gem-Knights appeared back onto the field via the Graveyard Portal.
"Now I activate my Gem-Knight Fusion, and thanks to Fluorite's ability, your Dimensional Disruption doesn't affect my Fusions anymore. I fuse my Gem-Knight Zirconia with my Gem-Knight Lazuil and Garnet!"
"Green gem that hides mysterious power! Join the red fire of truth and the fusion of prosperity and honor! In a whirlpool of light, combine to bring forth a new dazzling radiance! I Fusion Summon! Level 10! Gem-Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond (ATK: 3400, LV: 10)!"
"These are my true ace monsters." Julia stated as her lady stood between the other two Gem-Knights.
"3400 attack?!"
"Now my Gem-Knights, attack their hounds! Send them back to the dog house!"
"No!"
"Ahhh!"

Julia: 400 LP [Hand: 0] [AC: 1]
"I...I'll admit. You're strong, but-"
"I activate the Continuous Action Spell, Lancer Strike. By returning a Spell Card from my hand or field to my deck, one of my monsters can attack again."
"But you don't have any Spell Cards! Your hand is empty and so is your back row!"
"When my Pendulum Monsters are in their Pendulum Zones, they count as Spell cards instead of monsters."
"What?!"
"This is bad!"
"I return both Gem-Knight Tanzanite and Gem-Knight Beryl to my deck, allowing my Fluorite and Pearl to attack again."

Obelisk Force Member Blue: 1600 LP [Hand: 3]
Julia: 400 LP [Hand: 0] [AC: 0]
Julia took a threatening step forward as the Red and Green Obelisk members were blown back. After their life points hit 0, their duel disks began flashing before a strange glow surrounded their bodies. They then disappeared, leaving their comrade behind. The blue member looked up at her. Even though his eyes were covered, Julia could see the true fear in his eyes.
"P-please...don't..." Julia held her hand out.
"Give. Me. Him." The blue invader shakingly, reached into his pocket and pulled out the card. Julia snatch it from him, staring at the picture. The more she stared at it, the more her anger returned. First Dipper, and now Kit. She turned around and began walking back towards her monsters.
"A-are you going...t-to let me go?" He whisper meekly. Julia pauses. She knew what Zuzu would say to her if she was here. But she wasn't here.
"I activate the second effect of Lancer Strike. By sending it to the Graveyard, a monster I control can attack again. I choose my Lady Brilliant Diamond." She glance sideways at her ace monster. "Attack." She rush forward, sword in hand.
"Nooooo! Gahh!"
Obelisk Force vs. Julia
Field: Crossover (You can use Action Cards, but you can only have 1 Action Card in your hand.)
[Turn: 4]
Obelisk Force Member Blue: (1600 - 3400) = 0 LP [Hand: 3]
Julia: 400 LP [Hand: 0] [AC: 0]
Outcome: Julia (Winner)
The invader disappears and so does the Action Field and monsters. She looked back down at the card she held in her hand and then took out Dipper's card that she also carried with her. Avenging Kit had lowered her boiling rage, but not by much.
She could still very much hear the screams of her people as they cried out in fear and terror at the intruders. But she could also hear the triumphed shouts of her teammates, the Lancers, as they fought back. Their dimension wasn't going down without a fight. She should probably regroup with them so that they could push back the invading force further.
Julia carefully tuck the two cards back into her pocket.
"Kit...Dipper...don't worry. I'll fight in this war, and we'll win this war. And then...I'll find a way to bring you both back. You and everyone else. This I swear."

Dipper: "This is unacceptable! My name is in the ship, but I don't even show up?!"
Angelina: "Trust me, Dipper. You're gonna get plenty of spotlight. We've got two more ships with your name on it."
Dipper: "Well then, I suppose that's fine."
Angelina: "Literally. You have two other ships coming up. Now go get ready! Shoo!"
(After Angelina shooed Dipper away, she turned to Pen.)
Angelina: "Any sign of Fable?"
Pen: "Still missing."
Angelina: "Curse her and her social anxiety! Guess we'll just keep going."
(Angelina walks back on stage.)
Angelina: "That was some duel, wasn't it? Julia and Obelisk Force, take a bow."
(The four duelists do so and walk back behind the curtain.)
Angelina: "Now we're going to be taking a quick break to get ready for the next act, so use the bathroom, mingle, or just relax. We'll assume the play shortly."
[Meanwhile...]
Paper: "Damn it. How did he get away?"
(Paper mutters, looking around. Behind her, Yuya was walking past.)
Yuya: "Oh, hey Paper! Nice joke by the way!"
Paper: "What joke?"
Yuya: "Pendulums not being playable."
(Behind Yuya was Pen, who was trying vainly to signal to Paper to keep his mouth shut. Either her twin didn't see or just didn't care.)
Paper: "Oh. No. I was serious. You literally broke the game. Now excuse me, I got an idiot to track down."
(Paper walks away while Pen slowly approaches the Pendulum duelist.)
Pen: "S-sorry about that. Paper can uhh...be a little...'blunt'."
Yuya: "Yeah. I-It's fine. Pendulum Summoning is kind of...over powered, but...people still play Pendulums, right?"
(Pen begins visibly sweating.)
Pen: "Oh! Hey! Would you look at the time?!"
(Pen races off.)
Yuya: "Pen! You didn't answer my question!"
