Ulrich362: It's been a long time since we've been here... so what's going on again Bopdog?

bopdog111: We're on the Shadow Riders where Kevin will ask Camula about Tania.

Ulrich362: Oh yeah, fair enough. So let's see what happens. Enjoy the chapter.

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! GX but we own the OCs!


Kevin walked in the room he's sharing with Camula.

"Kevin?" she asked seeing him. "Is something wrong?"

"Did the bat tell you?" Kevin asked her.

"About Tania, yes I'm aware." Camula nodded. "She's rather skilled, though unlike most of the others she does duel fairly. Unlike me."

"Do you know any way to beat her?" Kevin asked sitting beside her on the bed.

"If by that you mean do I know a surefire strategy to defeat her Amazoness cards then no." Camula admitted.

Kevin frowned at this sighing, "Well now she's got Bastion, and I don't know what she's planning next."

"I have my suspicions." Camula admitted. "She's going to look for a husband."

"Well... she did say she wanted Bastion, and doesn't want to duel Alexis." Kevin admitted to her at that, "She won't harm him will she?"

Camula chuckled. "Amazon, with a potential husband... let's just say she might hurt him but not with violence."

Kevin sighed again but shakes his head with a smile, "Well just like us right?"

"Yes." Camula smiled.

"Speaking of which, I had been thinking..." Kevin trailed off to her.

"Yeah?" she asked.

"Well we're both Vampires in love here... And we only mated once to make me a Vampire so you won't be lonely... So should we have a Vampire style wedding when all this Shadow Rider business is over?" he asked her.

"That sounds lovely." she smiled kissing his cheek.

He smiled back before asking, "Then in that case." He knelled down taking her hand, "May I ask you, Camula, to become my lovely Vampire Wife?"

"Of course." she smiled warmly kissing him.

He smiled back as they stood up together staring in their eyes before Kevin admits, "I never had a girlfriend before..."

"I see, well you're being a fine boyfriend." Camula smiled.

"Do you have one?" he asked her curiously.

"No, I never did." Camula answered.

"Well... is this perhaps fate?" he asked her with a chuckle.

"Perhaps." she smiled.


Meanwhile in the Obelisk Blue Girl's Dorm hotsprings...

Alexis was sighing to herself alone in the springs.

"Alexis, mind if we join you?" asked a familiar voice as she looked to see Jasmine and Mindy.

"Sure girls." Alexis smiled to them.

The two of them got into the hot spring.

"It's been too long since we've just relaxed together like this." Mindy sighed.

"Yeah, I know what you mean." Alexis admitted with a smile, "The first time was when Syrus came in."

Jasmine frowned. "I can't believe he thought you wrote that."

"Well at least it's over with." Alexis said to her with a smile.

"True." Mindy agreed. "Now we can just relax."

"Hey girls?" Alexis asked them.

"Yeah?" Jasmine asked. "What's up?"

"Do you two... have any boyfriends?" Alexis asked them.

"No, but there are tons of cute boys in Obelisk." Mindy smiled.

"One of them should have asked us by now." Jasmine mentioned.

"Oh okay." Alexis nodded.


The next day at the Coliseum...

They arrive at the outside where Kevin turned to them, "Okay. Is everyone ready for Tania?"

"Yeah." Jaden nodded with a grin.

Kevin turned to Camula beside him, "Cami you ready?"

"Of course." she nodded calmly holding the parasol over her head.

With that they walked in finding Tania was there was Bastion on the ground looking asleep at the moment.

"Bastion!" Jaden cried seeing him.

"Don't really he's fine." Tania assured him before saying, "But now, I want someone new." Seeing Camula she smiled, "Well well Camula, I was wondering what happened. So you left the Shadow Riders?"

"After learning of Malek's betrayal I realized you couldn't help me with my goals." Camula answered. "Though, I did find someone who may be able to do what the Shadow Riders could not."

"You talking about that man beside you huh?" Tania asked pointing towards Kevin.

"I am." Camula smiled.

"Well, I'm proud of you Camula. You have your man, I'm trying to find mine." Tania said to her former comrade with a smile.

Kevin blinked at this, "I thought she would have some animosity to you Cami."

"Tania isn't the jealous type. Though her standards are... rather high for a husband, and I'm guessing your friend Bastion didn't meet them." Camula admitted.

"Your right cause I'm looking for a new man." Tania smiled before saying, "And your safe on that cause your Cami's big guy."

"Uh, thanks?" Kevin asked with a rub of his head.

"So which of one you has a Spirit Key?" Tania asked the wielders.

Jaden, Chazz, and Alexis revealed their keys.

"Alright then you sit out." Tania said to Alexis.

Alexis frowned before putting her key away.

"So you two are left." Tania grinned to Jaden, and Chazz, "Let's see." She gives thought to the two before gesturing, "You'll be next big boy." She was walking to Chazz.

"Fine, I'll take you down easily." he told her.

The others walked before Kevin asked his brother, "Hey Jay, what kind of duelist is Chazz?"

"Well... he uses a lot of different decks, the last one was based on this really tough card called Armed Dragon LV7." Jaden answered.

"Armed Dragon huh? That's a powerful card." Kevin said with a smile remembering that card all too well, "Let's see what he can do against Tania."

Jaden nodded as they turned to the duel.

"I choose Power." Chazz told Tania.

"Very well." Tania sets the Deck readying, "DUEL!"

"And now Princess charged in!" Princess charged at Armed Dragon LV3 before Tania called, "Next as you recall Princess' ability sends a card from my hand or field to the graveyard to summon a new Amazoness from my Deck as long as that card goes in Defense Mode. Come, Amazoness Chain Master!"

"True, but summoning it is only the start." Camula reminded him.

"Next, I'll use my Armed Dragon's special ability. By sending Despair from the Dark in my hand to the graveyard I destroy every monster you have with 2800 or less attack points." Chazz told Tania.

The Dragon roared shouting at the two Amazoness destroying them both while Tania stepped back with a grunt. But she smirked, "Well not bad, but this activates Amazoness Village's effect!"

Seeing something Syrus blinked asking, "Hey why didn't Tania take any damage?"

"It's cause of the monster she summoned Amazoness Fighter." Banner explained to him, "Anytime that card battles, it's player cannot take any damage."

"You might not take damage from my Armed Dragon, but your village only works once which means you're wide open for my Masked Dragon to attack you directly." Chazz smirked.

Masked Dragon charged a fireball striking Tania. (Tania: 2600/Hand: 3) "Well that's not a bad attack, big boy." she smirked to him.

Chazz shuddered. "Not interested, I end my turn."

Chazz's eyes widened seeing the monster.

"Tania already summoned one of her best monsters." Kevin said seeing that, "Does Chazz have a plan?"

"Now I activate Call's effect from the graveyard." Tania smirked showing the spell pocketing it, "Now Empress can attack every monster on your field."

Empress readied her blade at this.

"What?" Chazz questioned in shock.

"Now Amazoness Empress charge in at Armed Dragon LV7!"

Empress charged raising her sword. Chazz cried out as his monster shattered.

"No Chazz that's the wrong move!" Kevin cried to him.

"Too bad, Empress can deal piercing damage, remember?" Tania asked Chazz with a smirk.

His eyes widened hearing that.

"Now Empress attack that last dragon, and end this!" Amazoness Empress charged in raising her sword at Armed Dragon LV3.

"This time lack of memory." Tania shrugged as Chazz's key vanished, "Ah well, that's a second key, and another boy for me. Your boy Bastion's free to go now."

"Not again." Alexis frowned seeing that.

"So now it's just me, Lex, and Professor Banner." Jaden grunted at this.

"Apparently." Camula frowned. "Though Tania will likely not choose to duel you until last."

Kevin grunted before getting an idea turning to Camula, "Hey Cami?"

"Yes?" she inquired.

"Do you maybe try to convince her to duel you, or Alexis?" Kevin asked her, "You both know each other a bit so maybe she can listen to you better."

Hearing that Camula frowned. "I can... try and talk with her tomorrow, although I can't promise anything."

Kevin nodded before kissing her, "Thanks Cami."

She smiled kissing him back as they left with Jaden and Kevin helping Bastion.


Ulrich362: Another victory for Tania... which is bad.

bopdog111: 3 out of 7 Spirit Keys now remain.

Ulrich362: True, and who knows how many Shadow Riders are left. Hopefully things improve soon though, see you in the next chapter.

bopdog111: Be sure to review!
