Author: Here we go. Part 2 of Trade Bait and Sylvio has just busted out some menacing Dart Strikers! Can Yuya turn this around or are his friends and chances of getting his cards back going to come crashing down.

"Yuya!" Zuzu shouted from atop the tower, still holding onto the little ones. "Zuzu!" Yuya cried worriedly.

(Turn 4)

"You should worry about yourself more than your girlfriend." Sylvio taunted, causing Yuya to go to the same shade as hair.

"And now that I've successfully Pendulum Summoned, time to end you! Power Dart Striker, attack that water bug!" Sylvio said. Power Dart Striker fired the dart missiles from its hand at Skeeter Skimmer. "Skeeter Skimmer's special ability activates! Your attack is negated, and it goes in defense mode!" Yuya said. Skeeter Skimmer crouched down, and a shield of flashing bright colors blocked the missiles.

"Fine! Rocket Dart Striker do your thing!" Sylvio said as Rocket Dart Striker also fired dart missiles from its hand, however, this time they made contact, destroying Skeeter Skimmer in an explosion. "Now! Direct Blow on Yuya! Ultimate Dart Striker, attack!" Sylvio said. Ultimate Dart Striker fired blue darts at rapid fire at Yuya, causing him to get sent flying into a wall as his life points dropped.

3000-2400+600

"It's over! I end my turn!" Sylvio said.

(Turn 5)

"My move! I draw!" Yuya said, drawing his card. "I summon Block Spider!" Yuya said, summoning an arachnid like monster with gloves, boots, sunglasses, and literal Legos (Which I don't own, like I don't own the company) on its back.

Block Spider

Attack:0

Defense:100

Effect: Your opponent cannot target insect monsters with attacks, except this one. If it is special summoned, you can play another Block Spider from your deck.

"Now I'll activate my Mimiclay spell!" Yuya said, playing a spell. "It takes shape and turns into my Block Spider!" A green ghost appeared and molded its shape to turn into an exact copy of Block Spider, but green.

Mimiclay

Effect: If your opponent controls a monster, target 1 level 2 or lower monster you control, switch it to defense position, then summon a monster with the same name from your deck.

"I play another Block Spider!" Yuya said, summoning another Block Spider in defense position.

"What will two useless bugs do?" Sylvio taunted. "Actually, I've just created a perfect defense! Since you can only attack 1 Block Spider, and I have two, you can't attack!" Yuya declared. Sylvio growled; he didn't expect those useless cards to be such a nuisance. "I play two cards facedown and end my turn." Yuya said, placing two cards facedown on his duel disk.

(Turn 6)

"My draw!" Sylvio said, drawing. "I play a facedown and end my turn." Sylvio said, placing a card facedown.

(Turn 7)

Attention: Yuya is about to play a card that I made myself, there will be very few of these in this story, but Yuya will use this one a lot. I will also be making fake action cards.

"I play Pendulum Star Fusion!" Yuya said, playing a spell. "It lets me fusion summon! And for every monster you have on your field that I don't, I can use a pendulum monster in my deck!" Yuya said. "I fuse my Performapal Sleight Hand Magician with the Odd Eyes Pendulum Dragon in my hand!" Yuya said, as his two monsters appeared in the fusion portal.

"I FUSION SUMMON!" Yuya shouted. Look to the skies and feast your eyes on Rune Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Yuya said, summoning his spellcaster fusion dragon. Sylvio gulped; he didn't expect Yuya to fusion summon.

Rune Eyes Pendulum Dragon

Attack: 3000

Defense: 2000

Effect: Depending on the spellcaster fusion material's level used for this card's fusion summon, apply the following effects.

Four or below: This card can attack your opponents monsters twice per Battle Phase.

Five or above: This card can attack your opponents monsters three times per Battle Phase.

"Since I used the level 7 Sleight Hand Magician to summon Rune Eyes, it can attack all your monsters!" Yuya said, pointing at the Dart Strikers. "Now go! Attack Ultimate Dart Striker!" Yuya shouted. "I play Action Sacrifice!" Sylvio said, picking up an action card. "It prevents all my monsters from destruction this turn, but I can't use action cards for your next two turns!" Sylvio said, as Rune Eyes jumped and fired a huge blue laser from its ring, dealing 600 points of damage.

4000-600=3400

"Now Rocket Dart Striker!" Yuya shouted again. Rune Eyes fired another huge blue laser, this time causing 1100 points of damage.

3400-1100=2200

"Now Power Dart Striker!" Yuya shouted a final time as Rune Eyes fired his last laser. This time, 1200 points.

2200-1200=1000.

"I end my turn." Yuya said.

(Turn 8)

"Then it's my draw!" Sylvio said. "I play Cricket Close!" Sylvio said. "I negate the effects of two spells on my field, like my spellcasters, and negate Block Spider's effect!" He said. Two checkered colored binds wrapped around the two magicians, negating their effects. "Now watch as I separate my two dart strikers to combine them on Ultimate Dart Striker!" Sylvio said. Rocket and Power Dart Striker both disassembled before equipping certain parts onto Ultimate Dart Striker. "Thanks to my monsters new abilities, it deals damage even when your monster is in defense mode and gains 600 Attack points!" Sylvio laughed as his Ultimate Dart Striker gained 600 Attack points, now making them 3000.

"Attack Block Spider and end this!" Sylvio said. Ultimate Dart Striker fired huge missiles at Block Spider and Yuya jumped up, did a backflip and snagged an action card. "I play Misdirection! It targets your attack to Rune Eyes!" Yuya said, still in midair. The missiles redirected at Rune Eyes, who fired back with a blue laser from its ring. "I play my face down! Rush Recklessly!" Sylvio said. "It increases my monster's attack points by 700! You lose Yuya!" Sylvio said as the missiles expanded and broke through the laser.

"I play Miracle!" Yuya said, snagging yet another action card. "Rune Eyes is safe, and the damage is cut in half!" Yuya said, still getting sent flying from the force of the attack as his life points dropped to 250. "Stand still and lose!" Sylvio snarled. "I end my turn."

(With Zuzu, Tate, Allie, and Frederick)

"I know why Yuya played Rune Eyes." Zuzu said. "To get an advantage?" Tate said. "No, to try and prove to me that his fusion monsters are better! His huge ass ego is still there even though our safety is at stake!" Zuzu said angrily. "YUYA!" Zuzu called.

"GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE! YOU DON T NEED TO PROVE HOW GOOD YOU ARE WITH FUSION MONSTERS! DUEL THE WAY YOU KNOW HOW! DON"T WORRY ABOUT SOMEONE ELSE!" Zuzu yelled to him.

Yuya then realized, he was acting egotistical. He needs to duel the way he knows how, to dueltain and make people smile. Three spotlights then appeared on him. "Ladies and gentlemen! I'm in a tough spot facing a powerful Dart Striker! Can I still win? Let's find out with this next draw!" Yuya said, spreading his hands through the air.

"Showtime!" He said happily. Sylvio rolled his eyes, bored with this lame dueltaining stuff. "Let's do this!" Yuya said as his deck glowed. He had a new card. Yuya's eyes glowed, I DRAW!" He said, doing his signature draw with rainbow sparkles. It was a spell.

(Turn 9)

"I activate the spell Pendulum Draw Illusion!" Yuya said. (Another fake card but this one is important to the plot which will be revealed later on in the story.)

"For every Pendulum card on the field and in my graveyard, I get to draw!" Yuya said, drawing three cards. "However, I take 500 points of damage for each card I draw at the end of the turn!" Yuya said.

"But then he'll lose!" Allie cried in fear. "No, he won't. He'll wow us and make us smile." Zuzu said, admiring her best friend's dueltaining skills.

"I'll start with one of my facedowns! It's Raigeki Break!" Yuya said, playing his face down. "I discard Performapal Helprincess to destroy my Block Spider!" Yuya said, destroying his monster. "Why would you destroy your own card?" Sylvio asked in confusion. "Simple! To play my next facedown! Illusion Balloons!" Yuya said. A bolt of lightning destroyed Block Spider and some balloons appeared in its place, all popping to reveal a new monster.

"Everyone say hey to Performapal Drummerilla!" Yuya said . Performapal Drummerilla is a huge gorilla with drums on its chest and a top hat.

Performapal Drummerilla

Attack: 1600

Defense: 900

Effect: If there are no monsters on the field, you can normal summon this card without tributing. If this card is normal summoned without tributing, its level becomes 4. Once per turn, when your monster battles your opponent's monster, it gains 600 Attack Points.

"Odd Eyes! Strike down that Dart Striker!" Yuya said. Odd Eyes jumped up and fired a spiraling flame stream at the Dart Striker (By the way, Ultimate Dart Striker split its brothers back, so its boosts are gone.). "And now Drummerilla drums up 600 more points!" Yuya said. Performapal Drummerilla beat its chest, giving Odd Eyes 600 more attack points.

"Hey guys, what happens what Odd Eyes battles a level 5 or higher monster like Ultimate Dart Striker?' Yuya asked his friends. "The damage is doubled!" They all shouted. "Reaction Force!" Yuya said as the blast intensified Sylvio took 1400 points of damage, losing him the duel. The action field disappeared, causing his friends to fall, but the now free Stargazer and Timegazer caught them and floated them back to safety.

"Thanks, you two." Yuya said to his magicians. They nodded and gave a thumbs up before disappearing in yellow sparkles.

"Thanks Zuzu. I was being egotistical. I'm sorry. Maybe next time we can duel the right way, to have fun and smile!" Yuya said offering his hand to Zuzu. Zuzu ignored the hand and instead gave him a bone-crushing hug. "Underestimate me again and I'll destroy you OUTSIDE of a duel." Zuzu whispered fiercely in his ear before giving him an actual hug.

Yuya walked up to Sylvio, took his pendulum cards back, and went home, exhausted and tired. However, he was interrupted by a new person. It was Yuri's best friend, Sora Perse.

"What's up Sora?" Yuya said. "Hey, can we duel?" Sora said. "Yeah, but maybe tomorrow at the school, but why?" Yuya asked his candy munching friend. "I want to see those Pendulum Cards in action. And I bet Yuri twenty bucks I can beat you." Sora said, biting a lollipop.

"You'll lose that bet!" Yuya said, smiling and making a fist. "We'll see!" Sora said making a fist right back. They parted ways and Yuya went home.

Author: DONE! These take EONS to make since now I'm giving you all full descriptions of every card. Except Cricket Close, sorry, I forgot and am too lazy to go back and fix it. New chapter on Thursday. Quantum out.
