"Well done Tea!" Geno said, watching as the monster disappeared from the field. Tea threw her arms around him.

"I did it!"

"That you did!" Geno said proudly. Tea planted a kiss on him, and Geno pulled away.

"Oh, don't leave me waiting!"

"Tea.." He never finished, because the doorbell rang. "Let me get this first."

"We'll finish this later." Tea replied as she sat on the couch. Geno moved from her line of view, and did the sign of the cross.

"Seto! What are you doing here?" Geno replied, letting his friend in. Seto lead him to the living room and sat him next to Tea, who moved her hand to his knee. He resisted the urge to move it, for half of his mind was screaming that he shouldn't be doing this, because she was so young and innocent.

The over half reminded him of last night, which proved she was far from innocent. It screamed back that it had been 2 long years since he had been with a woman, and he also knew he cared deeply for the young woman to his left. But...

" Geno, I ran into an old friend, and well..I figured you'd like to meet."

Seto whistled, and young man entered. Tea looked at him carefully. He had shaggy blonde hair and a hard face. She had seen that face before. On the man sitting next to her.

Geno gasped. "Guy?"

The young man ran up to Geno and the hugged. Geno turned to Tea and grinned like an idiot. "Tea, I'd like you to meet Guy, my son."

Kaikou smiled as she drew. "Now, I love to live on the edge, so I will set these 3 cards, and set this monster in defense."

Nick chuckled. "You are foolish. You load up too quickly, leave yourself stretched thin. Now, let me finish off you monster and then show you how a true warrior battles. I will summon 8-Claws Scorpion." The monster sized bug appeared on the field and readied it's stinger. "When it attacks your down face monster, it's attack increases to 2400. Now my bug, clear the field."

Kaikou snickered. "You shouldn't go blaring in. I activate Enchanted Javelin!" As the scorpion sank it's stinger into The Forgiving Maiden, she plunged the javelin into the bug. It squealed as the maiden died, and the Javelin returned to Kaikou. She took it, and pressed the tip into her arm. (Kaikou-6400)

Nick frowned. "Smart, though you lost a monster. I will set these two cards and end my turn."

Raia nodded. "Then I will set this card and end my turn."

"My my, your deck not helping you? Did your father help you make it?" Kaikou frowned, but didn't say a word. "Well, I will deal with it now. I will shift my Scorpion to defense, and summon Harpies Bro."

"This is familiar." Kaikou thought.

"Let's just show this blowhard." Raia replied.

"Now my bro, attack!"

Kaikou wagged her finger at the dojo master. "Tsk tsk, forget my cards? I activate Waboku." Nick frowned. "I guess my father didn't do that bad helping me?"

"Lucky draw."

Kaikou sighed. "Great." She looked at Nick hard. "I can't win here. I lose, and your right about my dad. I win, and your such a big wussy, you can't admit I was right, you pull the, "Oh, lucky game" play."

"Well, you are lucky. You can't beat me."

"I can, black and blue if you don't shut up."

Nick looked at her. "We are evenly matched."

"No, you and my alter ego were matched. I can still destroy you with a heart beat."

Nick turned to leave, but Yami was behind him, Joey and Tristan guarding the doors. Yami looked at him.

"If you are truly a man of honor, you will stop belittling her."

"It can't be helped. She is a poor student. She was trained wrong, and now she is over confident. She is brash and unruly. I mean, how many duels have you won?"

"Many, as have my father, who competed with you in Pegasus' tournament."

"We didn't know who competed except for the people we faced. That is, except Geno Roads."

Kaikou grinned, and Nick's jaw dropped. "Allow me to assure you, your right to drop your jaw. I am Geno's daughter, and the body who hosts my spirit is the sister of Seto Kabia."

"Stranger and stranger." Nick replied. "Now I don't know if your crazy, or if I am."

Joey grinned. "Why not give us the card and go visit a doctor and find out."

He sighed. "I will duel."

"I guess. Now, I will end your Bros days. I summon Thunder Nyan Nyan." They heard a loud drum solo, and the Nyan Nyan appeared. "Want to see my kitty do a trick? Watch her kill the birdie." The drums beat, and released a thunderous boom, and the harpy shattered (Nick-3900)

Nick merely shrugged. "Well, let me show you a trick. I first activate Non Aggression Area." A wall appeared, blocking Kaikou from her monster zone. "This card will prevent you from attacking for one turn. And now, I summon the spirit of a fallen samurai, the Susa Soldier!" They watched as a strong broke open and from the clouds a samurai appeared, and with one stroke, shattered the drummer into pieces. He ended his turn. (Kaikou- 5950)

Kaikou frowned at the wicked barrier that seemed to taunt her. She was glad she had used the Javelin, to give her some breathing room. She passed.

Nick summoned a Spear Soldier and it attacked kaikou directly. She frowned, and was glad that the barrier faded. (Kaikou- 4450)

"Well, I guess I should deal with your Soldier. So I will summon Shining Abyss." A yin yang symbol appeared and the masked angel floated onto the field. "Now, I will activate Flame Sword of the Holy. It will increase my Abyss' attack by 700. Attack!" the Soldier tried to run, but the angel was on him, and with the grand sword cut him down. "What now, oh great dojo master?" (Nick-3300)

Nick laughed. "Oh, I should be scared? I am ready for you. I summon Susa Soldier, and activate TRIDENT OF POSEIDON."

They al watched as a great wave rose above Nick, and the Sea God tossed his trident to the soldier. Nick laughed. "Now, my card has two effects. First off, like all Greek Weapon cards, it keeps my spirit monster on the field. Second, it allows me to roll a die. If even, your offense monsters die, if tails, your defense." Nick rolled the die and Kaikou cursed, and watched as the trident killed her Abyss.

"Man, why is it we can't get through one duel without one of those damn cards appearing on the field?" Joey asked.

"I don't know Joey, maybe Heart of the Cards really does work." Yami replied.

"Or maybe we just have terrible luck." Tristan replied.

"I can believe that." Joey replied as he watched Kaikou look over her cards. She turned to Joey and smiled.

"Time to correct that. I activate Ultimate Offering. This allows me to summon an extra monster per turn. Now, I will summon two monsters in defense and activate Swords of Revealing Light.." The cards appeared as well as the light swords, but Nick laughed. (Kaikou-3950)

"Oh, I am so scared. Now, let's have my Trident finish off your little heavenly choir." The trident spun, but when it hit, it missed the cards. Nick's jaw dropped. "What? Why didn't it work?"

Kaikou chuckled. "It's simple really. You have to roll odd to destroy my monsters, and you rolled even. Simply put, your card is powerful, but only if luck is on your side. Now, it is time for me to end this duel."

Nick scuffed. "Really? And now is that, with my two monsters on the field?"

"Simple, really. I sacrifice my two monsters to summon Wing Weaver!" The angelic being flew onto the field, and Nick trembled. "And it gets worse."

"Worse?"

"I activate Metamorphosis, allowing me to summon Angel of Hope to the field!" The weaver faded, and a grand angel descended into the room. Nick shielded his eyes from it's glow. "And Nick?"

He looked at her with fear. "What?"

"I use ultimate offering again (3450) to summon Shining Angel. I will then use Angel of Hopes effect, to bring 3 monsters back into my hand. As such, I gain back my Wingweaver."

Joey threw his fist in the air. "Ya Raia, show this fool!"

"...and use Polymerization to Special Summon another Angel of Hope!" As second angel returned, and Kaikou's hand filled with angels, all revived from the graveyard. She looked at Nick and grinned like a wolf. "Finally, I activate the Charm of Hera."

The queen of gods appeared on the field, and handed the charm to Kaikou. She looked at her, and the goddess, instead of leaving, stood at her side.

"Now, I will equip you scorpion and your Susa with the charms, and have my first angel attack!" The hope shattered the Susa, and the scorpion was dragged to the graveyard. Kaikou laughed. "You will now see the power my father gave me, attack my angel, and end this fool!"

Nick sank to his knees, and quietly, yet spitefully, threw the Greek weapon at Kaikou and stormed out. The monsters all faded away.

Except for Hera. Kaikou looked at her, and realized her duel disk was off. The goddess nodded, and from the other cards arose the 5 other Greek gods they held. All 6 looked at them, and then Zeus spoke.

"Pharaoh, you and your friends have done well. But hear us now: Kappa Neo is a dangerous person. He is not to be taken lightly. We can't aid you in the up coming battles. No god can. You and your friends must fight Kappa Neo one on one."

Hades turned to Joey. "Be warned, for Kappa is gathering his own forces. You will all face dangers soon. Be prepared to face those you never expected"

Hera looked at Kaikou. She smiled. "You are so much like him."

"Who?"

"Your father. Long have we watched him. He fights well, and you will face him. I do not know how it will go, but rest assure, Kappa will prove to be the greatest ally and enemy all of you have meet"

With that, the gods returned to their cards. Yami frowned. "Wow, what are you suppose to say when a god talks to you?"

Kaikou shrugged, and as she grabbed her New Greek Weapon card, she looked at him. "What do you say when they reveal they are scared of your enemy?"
